me
damn dude
that's rough it's rough
i don't know why i woke up at four
though cause i went to bed at six so i
should have woke up at two
but um
another i'm gonna give you the bad news
first then we're gonna get into the
positivity right because i gotta get off
my chest so i looked i was checking my
grades last night i was like staying up
stressing out and shit
so i looked at what i got on my midterm
my midterm exam for one of my classes
and to be fair i didn't study for it
and i like you we had a day to do the
midterm it was like online and so i
didn't study i got cocky i was like i'll
just you know it's open no whatever
and keep in mind i'm not going to
classes you know i'm not even going to
classes but
so i'm just preparing this so that when
you guys make fun of me i can have a
response because it's really
embarrassing okay
so
i looked at the grades
and it shows all of the grades in the
class
okay it shows all the grades in the
class
and it's anonymous you we have a student
id and it just shows your id and nobody
knows your ideas so they show all the
grades in the class okay
i don't need to tell you
i have to tell someone though because
this is why
it resulted in this because of streaming
okay
so i have to tell someone you guys know
i don't have friends so
you know i'm gonna tell you guys
[Laughter]
i got
the lowest score in the class
on that final
[Laughter]
and they ranked it
like 11 to 27 is the highest score and
11 is the lowest
and i got 10.
i was outside of the map
i still passed it got a c minus because
the curve and shit but
wow guys damn you know
but i'm i got to be careful because i've
been
i've been like too you know cocky about
because last semester i just made me
cocky last semester is like i barely did
work i barely went to class and i still
got two b's
and like two c pluses
but i've been getting cocky and shit and
i've just not been doing any work pretty
much besides the stuff that you have to
turn in
for credit but if let's say worst case
scenario i get all c minuses
i can take that like i can um my gpa
will handle it and i won't be in trouble
with the school
but if i get anything below one c minus
i get kicked out it's over you know so
pretty tense pretty tense situation
but you know what guys i'm gonna be real
with you
i know it's a fucking gamble i know it's
a gamble but i genuinely believe in this
more than law school okay
i know it's fucking crazy whatever
but
no don't no i am gonna risk it because
i genuinely do not believe in law school
like i don't just the situation in
america right now
you know the the state of the market for
lawyers
and a bunch of other things just law
school was always just this kind of
safety cushion to allow me
to do the things i really do want to do
which is like right
and do shit like this
and
i mean okay laws are going to be around
but
the the way it works with lawyer
there's going to be a big technology
change and yeah there's going to be an
overhaul of the
the legal system of some kind
it's so outdated if you if you knew
if you knew how laws worked in america
you would know how fucking outdated it
is you know it's just a very simple
point
i'm not saying this is like some
ideological type of thing like i from a
pragmatic perspective like if i was
gonna bet money on it i genuinely
don't have faith
in pursuing it
um shit
yeah
but that's just the bad news the good
news is that
we're here
i woke up at four i barely had any time
you know to to even i did prepare for
the stream we're gonna have content
today don't worry it's gonna be a nice
stream
but you know
yeah so how's your guys's day how did
your day go
oh yeah i did have a good okay there's
one highlight of my day today
i went to walgreens to get razors
because i ran out of razors
and
chick-fil-a was right next to it i got a
fried chicken sandwich and a grilled
chicken sandwich and large fries
and a fruit cup and it was a very good
meal
i'm not even kidding it was a highlight
of my day so far you know highlight of
the day so far
um did i go to the gym today no i do
that after these streams
but weirdly enough
at my apartment gym for some fucking
reason i keep forgetting to call them
they took out the um
what do you even call them anymore
the chairs the gym chairs they're called
benches what are they called
they're not called benches are they
because a bench requires the uh those
are benches so they took those out you
know there was only two they took them
out
so it's been awkward you know i gotta
figure out how to replace those because
those are really important for my uh my
workouts and they just fucking removed
them
yeah
it's uh
pretty shitty
i think why do people just fuck things
up for you those two benches were fine
why'd you take them out it takes way
more work to take them out than to just
leave them there but whatever you know
whatever
but you know i'm looking forward to the
sun
the last final boss
more or less the last final boss
for me my personal life is gonna be
not this saturday the saturday after
that it's when my final paper is due for
this class that's been giving me a pain
in my fucking ass when i finish that
paper and i get that done
oh fuck then i have finals shit
damn well when i'm done with those
finals i don't even know when they are
i'm telling you guys
the the streaming the power level is
gonna be
through the roof it's gonna be off the
charts okay the level of content you're
gonna start seeing
way better than this okay wait i mean
this is still good i think i mean to me
i don't know but
this summer's gonna be beautiful guys or
whatever late late spring whatever early
mid spring whatever it's gonna be
beautiful we're gonna have irl streams
and um we're gonna you know go outside
be in the sun
and
i'm gonna get there's gonna be more
creativity i already told you guys about
that thing i was planning
where i want to bring
network with uh other twitch
uh
channels
small ones you know because we can't be
too ambitious you know but small ones
and
to put together a fun show because not
like you know the raj or whatever but
our own thing you know
because i really loved our shrimp trial
i fucking had a blast and i i i even
love watching it you know i don't have
time but
i love watching it
yeah
if you dream 24 6
yeah i think i'm gonna be streaming 24
not 24 6 but six days a week and then
one day out of the week i'm going to
take that week day off and i'm going to
use that day to
write and plan
actually i could
not write but i can plan because i can
write you know before i stream or after
i stream
so
guys i do have writings to attend to
that i've been neglecting
ever since i started streaming i just
put them on hold i gotta get back to
those writings you know
hold on i don't like this song
sorry okay maybe do less streams and
more time making editing content
i wish dude
no i don't think so i think we're gonna
start
having people
be our editors
and once we start monetizing we'll find
a way to compensate whoever we find is a
you know a um
a regular editor for the show
i really want to you know streamline
that whole editing process to make sure
that we you know
we have
regular youtube stuff coming out because
right now the youtube is pretty uh
tumbleweed you know there's nothing
going on on youtube
so we're gonna start i have some stuff
i'm gonna release for the youtube too
you know so we need to we need to use
that youtube because the youtube is kind
of let me be real with you guys the
youtube's not growing that fast
um but that's our fault you know it's
our fault
um
okay yeah and then later in the stream
today i think we're gonna have some
collins and the reason we're gonna have
collins is because i just installed the
feature well this isn't the reason but
it'll help check this out guys so when
you when we go when i go into the uh
the show channel
look at this
see this
look at the corner right here see this
i always wanted that you know i found
out how to do it and
it's gonna make it a lot easier you know
to to have people on
so
including people from the show like the
other infrared people
so yeah that's that's some good news too
um
you know there's not gonna be any gaming
tonight
and uh we're gonna go through
some news we're gonna watch biden's
press conference
and uh other stuff we have a lot of
stuff lined up and planned tonight and
i'm looking forward to it
but
[Music]
okay
well
what do we do in the beginning of the
streams guys i forgot what do we do
first my memory stop kidding we check
the reddit okay we check
the reddit okay
let's do this
wow i'm
on
i'm on chrome let me exit out of chrome
because chrome is dangerous chrome
crashes my string when i have it up
uh let's check this reddit
damn 774
we're nearing that 800 mark
um firefox yeah but firefox is like you
guys don't have like a ton of blogs
right so i need like the different
browsers to be logged into the different
wordpresses and firepro firefox is using
one of my
like i have a bunch of tabs for my blog
post for firefox
i can't believe i'm talking about this
shit you guys will never even see them
you'll never even know what those blogs
are
but i'm just gonna be real with you when
i get another pc
because i'm gonna keep this one
when i get that new pc
that's when i'll be able to optimize our
streaming to the max we'll be able to
use fucking chrome for streaming you
know or whatever works best
and i'll just keep all of my important
work on this computer and i'll i mean
like my personal work and then the the
streaming will be
this pc will be all for streaming and
gaming and shit like that you know
all right let's just let's get right to
it
775 wow
so
what do i think of this aesthetic
wow this hit all the way to the top so
clearly it's very popular but i'm gonna
say something really unpopular then um
i i don't dig it i don't like it
um
and i hate to disappoint but i kind of
went over it live stream you know our
aesthetic
is very much not focused on pastiche and
it's very much focused on ultra realism
to me this strikes me as very pastiche
this reminds me of like the 50s
or the 60s futurism right
so it's very pastiche to me it's like uh
it's it's 2d it's drawn
which isn't by itself bad but
it's not quite you know what we're
aiming for
i mean it doesn't look bad but it's not
quite the aesthetic where
i stop saying hauntology i hate that
it's not what i'm
you don't have to get that deep into it
okay i just don't like pastiche it's a
cool picture but it's not our aesthetic
i hate to be brutally honest but yeah
but i'll still upvote it you know
yeah look forward not backward yeah i
agree with that
that's my view too exactly my view
no comment necessary
nice
i've seen this image before
this is such a cool image
[Laughter]
big people energy makes small peepee
[Laughter]
this is a nice image i love it
are you going on nimbo tonight
why would i
no what do you mean
there's oh today's thursday
oh
yeah today's thursday i forgot no i'm
i'm not gonna be going on
um
yeah
let me see this
on we can
pause this fuck times i'm being hurt by
the stupid gusanos from from miami i am
being hurt by the um by the uh by the
falun gong that's who's hurting me
that's who has been driving the the the
welfare state to be eroded in this
country pushing all these right-wing
policies telling people all kinds of
made-up stupid stories about communism
so evil you know fidel castro ate little
babies for dinner every day i saw it i
was there you can't argue with me i saw
it i saw it that's that's the problem we
have in america this is the problem we
have in america you know i say that we
let we let all those hungry kids from
guatemala and honduras into the country
and we deport all the miami gusanos we
let them go back to cuba to deal with
fidel castro we deport all the falun
gong people we send them back to china
so the chinese communists can deal with
them we deport all of the the afghan you
know terrorists who were you know you
know trying to you know we're working
with osama bin laden against the soviet
union we deport all the chechen
separatists why don't we deport all the
right-wing scum that the cia has
imported into america why don't we why
don't we deport them right that's what i
want to that's what that's what i want
to do if i was president there would be
a big immigration crackdown it wouldn't
be on the border it would be in miami uh
it would be in the the right wing uh the
right-wing neighborhoods it would be at
the epoch times it would be at the
washington times that's where that's
where the deportations would take place
there would be a mass mass crackdown on
immigration if i was president but it
wouldn't be against hard-working people
who just want to come here and have a
job it would be against right-wingers
and fanatics who have been you know
destroying our country pushing austerity
economics you know waging war against
our labor unions driving our wages down
uh you know pushing for deregulation
making a situation where our roads are
crumbling where our schools are falling
apart we got prisons for profit these
people believe in free market insanity
right and and and
yeah i mean um i think this is actually
really intelligent optics and the reason
is because
you know the whole in america at least
you know the whole open borders meme
um
it's it's really harmful for leftists
and people aren't necessarily xenophobic
but
they want to feel like there's some
measure of sovereign sovereignty you
know over the country
so this is really good optics you know
like
um instead of you know deporting
hard-working innocent people
you know what i mean like
it's uh
it's good optics i think you know i mean
yeah not too complicated but people
still need to know be educated more
about
you know the the
how some of those groups are used by the
us
against other countries and stuff
but overall it's it's good optics i
think i think it's smart
how long is this
this is 20
minutes um
i just want to like see the visuals
we're not going to watch this whole
thing though but i just want to check
this out this is beautiful wow
i wish americans can just see this you
know i wish you could just see this
i mean
i know you can't go there but just look
at this dude this is
this is something new you know
wow wait look at these boats i love this
i love these boats i love this look
ready
this dude i fucking love this dude this
is beautiful
china's transitions towards soul this is
absolutely beautiful dude
these fucking boats
is new and never before seen dude i
would love to be on this
on top of this new approach the cpc
admitted that this will take an
extremely long time for a socialist and
communist society to come wow can you
imagine being there guys that's fucking
crazy
coming to full fruition while
introducing
i markets
admittedly a lot of asia is like this
but
still
sure we would all like a great modern
communist country but what does that
actually mean how does one plant
this is a cool video i've been noticing
though that this channel kind of and
this is kind of ironic for some of the
content i have lined up later but i feel
like we focus a little too much on china
you know and we have to start paying
attention to
america you know we can't just keep we
want to learn from china we want to you
know educate people about it 100
but we can't only do that you know we
have to focus on the problems we're
facing here on the ground you know
um
you what's you
what happened
um
yeah we can't
yeah
what is this
no no no no
[Music]
[Laughter]
[Music]

um
infrared research facility
i don't know what this means but i dig
it you know i i dig this
i dig it
i dig it
i dig this you have any thoughts on who
was right
during the bath party split between half
essence
i don't think in that case it's a matter
of right or wrong i think it's a case of
genuine i don't know enough about it i
think it's the whole thing with the
it was genuine differences between those
countries but i don't know enough about
it epi genetic
nice
will infrared take the jim jones
no dude come on come on dude chill
this is the first thing that continues
on mass suicide the desire to avoid
death is one of the strongest desires in
human beings obviously group suicide can
happen but are we supposed to believe
that over 900 people killed themselves
knowingly in mass
oh okay i don't know i don't know i mean
uh i'll have to investigate it i guess
but
i thought you're gonna be like
something else but
it's questioning the narrative of what
happened
i don't know i don't know anything about
it i'd have to look into it you know i
don't
i don't know a damn thing about
you know the whole i know very
superficially what happened
um
wow that's
pyongyang this is really nice
photography
wow
it looks really nice
what a well-armed
[Laughter]
based
please
[Music]
i did not see that coming
[Music]
based
anarchist reading reading how loza
luxembourg described democracy
[Music]
i don't think people realize that
a lot of american leftists have tried to
like make rosa luxemburg like the d like
oh i'm a luxembourgist because you know
they want to be
progressive or whatever but
rosa luxembourg was pretty hardcore i
mean she was she was not like
a libertarian by any means you know so
i don't know why people have tried to
like turn her into a disney princess
when she was you know
she was not somebody to be fucked with
you know
but i guess that's what american
leftists do you know
[Music]
in the 1950s a national questionnaire

92 percent said yes
short passage from lousy
to no one yet to
whenever you guys send me things that i
have to like actually think about and

the jewish labor bond political prisoner
what is that
hello comrades welcome back to the
channel this is a bit long but uh looks
cool
it's a bit long though
for the stream i mean i'm not
brainwashed they are
nice
all right let's check it out
you guys always you guys always want me
to beef with these people
let's check out what he says
moving forward to the question of
chinese imperialism using lenin's
criteria from imperialism the highest
stage of capitalism chapter seven
uh those famous flight criteria that
then cargoes
before we get into that if we want to
discuss whether or not this or that
country is imperialist it's first
important for us to have a concrete
understanding of what it is that we mean
by imperialism or capitalist imperialism
so let's take a moment to provide our
understanding of
imperialism that's the highest state of
capitalism
the present near it let me tell you
something
during lenin's time
there's no such thing as an imperialist
versus a non-imperialist country okay
lenin was describing imperialism as a
world system
which all countries that were involved
in the manifold of global capitalism
were a part of it whether they were you
know
yeah
but the key thing was always political
sovereignty i mean
if you read lenin's the right
of nations to self-determination
he writes that the linchpin
is
uh political sovereignty a separate
state
you know that's the linchpin of
the revolutionary bourgeoisie
in the age of imperialism
is the monopoly capitalist or
imperialist stage of capitalism
imperialism in the modern sense is
capitalist imperialism the modern stage
of capitalism all capitalist ruling
classes in this era function within the
world imperialist system and sees all of
the world's wealth and resources they're
able to however the bourgeoisie
including its alliance in some cases
with feudal landlord class
okay i think the big pill people need to
take in general is
that are you guys ready for this pill or
no
imperialism is not enough to describe
the situation today okay in general it's
just not enough
this is we're in a new stage today we're
in a new stage what that means
i'll leave that for you to decide
but if imperialism is the highest stage
of capitalism and we're in a stage
beyond that
i'll let you guys fill in the blanks you
know i don't know if you're ready for
this pill but
in most countries it's far too weak
internationally to exercise significant
imperialist control over other countries
or to organize significant economic
exploitation of them
in a few countries however the ruling
bourgeoisie is far stronger and has
quite a free hand to bus around other
countries and or to economically exploit
them to a considerable degree these are
the countries that we call imperialist
countries so while while capitalist
countries indeed participate in this
global system of capitalist imperialism
there are certain countries that have a
disproportionately large amount of power
which they use in order to dominate
within this system in imperialism the
highest stage of capitalism then it
gives us five main criteria for
measuring and understanding this
phenomenon so let's go through them now
in chapter seven lenin states that we
must give a basic definition of
imperialism that will include the
following five of its basic features one
the concentration of production and
capital has developed to such a high
stage that that has created monopolies
which play a decisive role in the
conflict but he wasn't defining a
criteria with which to
interpret which countries are
imperialist or not he was trying to
define a historical era
i think you know he's not he doesn't
have a he doesn't have it wasn't like a
u.n
a u.n inspector's checklist to say
you're going to go to the country are
you imperialist or not oh okay you know
like it's not
two the merging of bank capital with
industrial capital and the creation on
the basis of this finance capital of a
financial oligarchy
three the export of capital is
distinguished from the export of
commodities acquires exceptional
importance four the formation of
international monopolist capitalist
associations would share the world among
themselves and five the territorial
division of the whole world among the
biggest capitalist powers is completed
yeah the the problem is the fifth one
the problem is really the fifth one
china is not
vying to divide other countries for
itself you know
so let's take each of these points one
by one that's that's probably just like
right off the bat it doesn't work but
again
i mean the the five points were about a
specific historical era and by the way
uh paul morin whatever
lennon said this was the highest stage
of capitalism which means socialism is
going to inherit things that look
superficially
fit this criteria like the
centralization
um
apparent you know monopoly whatever but
it's it's all confused
up in the air and ambiguous anyway
because
you could say china has
monopolies but you could also say that
those monopolies correspond to more
decentralization and more breaking up of
industries so
the the era of one let's just
regardless of what we think about the
era of imperialism
let's just say the era of one-sidedness
is uh like in the dumpster bin it
doesn't fucking work to do you can't
understand anything about the world if
you think in a one-sided way and you
think in terms of black and white
because
especially when it comes to countries
like china you know it just doesn't work
dude
and see if they apply to china so that
we can arrive at a concrete conclusion
that's whether or not modern china is an
imperialist okay this is stupid though
because lenin wasn't applying it to
individual countries in a vacuum he was
describing a specific era of capitalism
this is this is the opposite of lenin's
approach to i mean lenin specifically
always was dichotomizing
abstract you know definitions with
concrete historical analysis and he said
as much
for example in his po in his i just read
it yesterday again the right of nations
to self-determination his book or his
work
um
he specifically distinguishes
between the materialist and dialectic
approach and this kind of approach
you're coming from
you know which is
trying to just apply
principles and qualities in a vacuum
uh in this indus you know it doesn't
work
okay can i go on a small rant a little
bit on western leftists
let me go on a small rank can i
i'm really frustrated at this fact that
western leftists think that because
they're living in the west where
everything's evil anyway
that they're they're already pure that
they already occupy a position of purity
so they can go and look at other
socialist countries
like they're uh they're going on a
shopping spree and they're like hmm i
don't know you did bad things you did
bad things you did bad things
you're not pure enough you're not pure
enough you're not pure enough
i think i'll pass
i'm fine where i am
and and
it's this weird protestant theology
where it's like they accept that they
live in a circumstance of total
depravity but the fact that for example
that there might be contradictions in
china and there might be contradictions
in cuba or other countries they take
that as a warrant to say that oh well
it's all the same then there's no
difference then there's nothing to be
learned there's nothing to be garnered
there's no actual authentic socialistic
developments going on
it's just as bad as you know this
capitalist imperial corps that i'm
living in i think i'll pass no thank you
but here's the difference between you
and those countries those countries
throw themselves into the thick
of actually having skin in the game and
actually participating in the con you
know construction and development of
socialism with all the contradictions
struggles hardships
and
you know um obstacles that are gonna
come with that you're this kind of pasty
white lily white
beautiful soul pure person who's living
in the west who doesn't have any fucking
skin in the game and only defines
themselves based on the opposing
everything around them they have skin in
the game and yeah when you have skin in
the game you're gonna get dirt on your
hands and you're gonna be dealing with
contradictions and shit
you know that's how it is but you it's
like they're in the pool they're
swimming and you know you're trying to
critique their form while they're
swimming but you're still on land you're
not even dipping your fucking toes in
the water you're still on fucking dry
land oh one day i'll go in the water but
i'll only go in the water as soon as
it's absolutely perfect too
as soon as it's i feel it it's
absolutely perfect to go in the water no
you go in the fucking water
and you fucking do your best you know
because the dry land that you're on now
the water levels are rising
you're not going to have a fucking
choice
swim to you know somewhere else
but you want to stay on your dry land
while the water is rising um
no i think i'll pass
i think i'll pass what what ground do
you stand on
who are you to fucking judge anyone
i don't fucking understand there's like
there's two types of look you know
you could you don't have to just apply
this to politics you can literally apply
this to anything in life there's two
types of people
the type of person
who
shuns the world
just because there's problems in the
world you can okay you know what
as all those leftists who i'm talking
about they are the in-cells of the left
it's literally like in seldom i'll tell
you why because
when you seek when you when you try to
talk i'm going to speak as a man i'm not
speaking for everybody in the world i'm
just speaking as a man when you go out
and you talk to women
you're going to fail they're going to
reject you
you're going to be embarrassed you're
going to be humiliated maybe you know
it's not gonna work out you're gonna you
know there's gonna be all sorts of
problems
but you wanna know the the guys who
who uh you know
they um
how do i say this politely
they go home happy
they're the ones who just throw
themselves in the thick of it say fuck
it you know throw themselves in the
thick of it and yeah they take all that
rejection they don't let it get to them
you know they go they deal with it but
these incels out here oh i'm too ugly i
i don't have the right chin structure i
don't have the right qualities
and uh
i hate all women they're all like you're
such a fucking in you know like it's the
same shit it's literally the same
fucking shit it's the exact same fucking
thing we're talking about right now you
know
they're the in-cells of the left it's
like dude
have you ever heard the phrase better
than nothing you throw yourself into the
thick of it
there's going to be a lot of
hardship and
imperfection and contradictions and
struggle but that's the only
way you're you're doing anything
you get with the program and throw
yourself into the thick of it
by being this fucking detached in cell
you're just rotting away
as a fucking loser for the rest of your
life you know
but
um
yeah that's that's the end of this rant
okay let's continue
oh this is fareed zakaria he's actually
not that bad
i don't say this lightly but this clip
that i'm about to show you
is
probably the best clip i've ever seen
on cnn
cnn generally does horrendous work
horrendous work they have wolf blitzer
on 84 hours in the day where he
regurgitates robot talking points he's
never made an interesting or
controversial or edgy point in his life
um he's a clown virtually every host
has brain worms and they're partisan
hacks or they serve these dude kyle
he's one of the most stylish people in
the game
he's got the most drip in the game
his hair is always on point
and you know what i'm saying at the risk
of whatever sounding this is a handsome
dude i'm not gonna lie this is just a
gent naturally handsome dude you know
so
yeah
here's why i respect kyle because i
could tell he's stuck in the mid 2000s
because that's when he that's probably
when he was in high school and shit he
grew up
and he don't give a fuck this is an og
dude this is an og
they're just
incredibly uninteresting i can criticize
them all day long and i do i mean that's
half of my job is to criticize cnn and
mainstream media
but what you're about to see here this
might be the first time ever we're
covering a cnn clip and it's like
there's no caveats no hedges all right
this is too long but i'm sure this is a
great video
this is the truth it doesn't really
matter who's who's president the line is
always going in a certain way you know
um
i heard about this i don't even know
when to show this on stream
is this real i don't know if it's real
is it even real
i heard it uh i heard it wasn't real i
don't know
i'm not one of those people who spreads
lies you know it's fake yeah
i thought i think it's kind of fake too
but i don't know if it's real that's
fucking crazy but
yeah
guys i one thing i'll never be is i'll
never be a liar you know these people
lie about me all the time i'll never lie
dude this is like my worst enemy i'll
never even lie about them you know
but
so you've accepted
that's good
first though i have something you should
see this dub is not good
master hua's murderer
[Music]
yeah exactly we don't need to lie about
the dude you know we don't need to make
up lies like what we know for fact is
already enough you know
that's on record
[Music]
jennifer do you really hate
twitch that much is it really that much
worse
you know what the problem with twitches
though granted
the problem with twitch is that
um because i'm not partnered
you don't like twitch either oh come on
guys
you guys are making me feel bad
um
i'll try to work something out guys i'll
try to see what i can do because i read
today that youtube also has a membership
thing you know
so i'll i'll see i'll check it out you
know but i i don't think it's as easy to
sub to youtube as it is to twitch
but
guys i appreciate it a lot i'm really
sorry about that i know a lot of you
guys preferred youtube
and you know
we still have the youtube chat so any if
we you know ever decide to start
streaming on youtube we will you know
but um
yeah i know twitch is like a new
environment
and
yeah no partner on both platforms oh
shit and dono's from other platform
then you can do a stream
i you can't do a stream if you're an
affiliate on twitch though i haven't um
done i haven't signed i haven't done the
affiliate stuff i haven't like given
them
my account and anything everything yet
but i might do it this week but i'm
still kind of conflicted you know
you keep
oh shit it's the yeah exactly yeah it's
the um
it's the fact that they force it to be
1080p
actually i might start streaming at 720p
and that'll 100
i guarantee it'll solve
that buffering problem i'll just have to
start streaming at 720p but you can't
like decide
which
rate to stream at
because um
you have to be partnered for that but i
could start doing it at 720p
and i'm sure that will solve all of
these the issues
720p standard streaming yeah i'm kind of
a fucking idiot i'm sorry
i just did i did
1080 because i'm like let's be high
quality you know but i realized
yeah i'm sorry
this is sick
this is
my thumbnails are my biggest obstacle i
don't not every thumbnail needs to be
unique anymore we need an industrial
production of thumbnails
and i need to edit
more
to make more vids and then i'll pump out
videos on youtube every day
or every week
until we have an industrial production
of thumbnails
yeah don't worry don't don't worry about
this don't send thumbnails we'll we'll
we're going to figure it out you know
we're going to do we're going to
internally we have
yeah we're going to do it
don't worry about it guys the like we're
one of i think
we're one of the only communities where
you guys have genuinely
actually helped us so much with like
when whenever we needed a thumbnail or
anything
and other stuff even the whole video
like gent
jetty made that whole video about sansa
yeah
i think would work i will jennifer next
stream the next stream we have is going
to be 720p don't worry
um i'm going to make sure
you know we don't have
yeah shout out gentee dude i still
am very grateful for what he did
uh multiple destroyers were swarmed by
mysterious drones that this is the new
thing
uh
drone swarm warfare not a lot of people
know about that
super interesting
chris hedges explained no
already saw this
um
let's look at what's new
two types of leftists you guys keep
comparing me to this guy
not this guy fuck matt christman trump
and other prominent members of his
administration are announcing to us that
they intend to commit a coup in the
united states
so
i wanted to talk about honest to god
this is what i would look like
this is what i'll look like in like 10
years
dude i'm just going to go bald but i am
going to have this hairline
100 i will
but i'll just go bald you know
something today i wanted to talk about
i want to talk about what i heard from a
friend this isn't a uh fancy you know a
frivolous use of language a friend who
heard it from another trumpet stealing
the election
[Music]
they have been broadcasting their
intentions now for quite some time
and it is clear to me now don't become a
doomer like matt is he's a millennial
dude
what up great gaddafi
it's crazy to see you uh
it's lisandro what the fuck what's up
dude
he's here we are
committed
to the following flight
and i can't believe it
and i can't conceive
cause we're under the gun that drops
dude i love this song i this oh my god
dude don't make me get nostalgic and
shit
this is my michigan
fucking summer song like this is what
plays on the radio in the summer of
michigan
when you go up north and shit
you want lakes
and i can't believe it
you're taking me on and then taking on
the run
you take it on the run baby
cause i don't believe it
you're taking them out when you take it
on the run
dude i love that song
i don't like 80s songs but i like that
one
because it just reminds me of michigan
you think there's a problem with the
modern left
it's not that they try to be the owl of
minerva it's that they
they try to shoot the owl
they try to shoot the owl wherever they
see it
yeah or they try to yeah they try to
capture the owl they try to catch the
owl
who's cm
who's cm again am i stupid
cm who is that
oh caleb
shit
i thought i thought because they were
talking about something else because i
thought caleb was saying confirm they
are racist but
see him okay okay i understand
nice
okay i think that's it for the reddit
let's get right
into the news
how about that guys
let's get right
into the news
so i was deciding what we should um
check out first
because we have a few things
um thanks for the transcript by the way
i just got it
we have a few things um
the first thing is obviously we gotta
watch this
this news conference
wow what the fuck hold on
let me add this to the queue hold on
let's uh
let's kind of not
do too much news because we want to have
on stream
call-ins you know we want to bring
people on
but we're going to have to limit the
time you know we're going to limit it to
like five to ten minutes so we can get
enough people
um
first news conference wow
we're gonna watch the fox one because
it's the first one oh thank you thank
you
is there a highlights actually let me
see if there's a highlights because i
don't want to watch all in an hour
highlights
key moments okay
it's only three minutes i don't know if
i trust msm to like give us
the juicy highlights
okay we're gonna watch
tucker because tucker will be hard on
him so we're gonna watch tucker's
coverage good evening and welcome to
tucker carlson tonight
and then after tucker's we're gonna
watch the other highlights so we can get
you know a balanced perspective joe
biden finally gave his first press
conference this afternoon no president
has ever waited this long to answer joe
biden
joe okay
joe biden wake up
joe
biden wake up
this is message from muhammad khalakhin
joe biden
wake up
joe
biden wake up
i want to bring him on stream
i want to bring him on stream
so questions in public and as of just
yesterday we were not still entirely
sure it would happen a reporter at the
white house saw biden ambling around and
asked him if he was ready for his first
presidency this is his message from
muhammad king coming
down
conference
no more
no more
no more iran no more turkey
press conference biden replied
apparently in the end somebody told him
a staffer pointed biden toward the tape
mark on the floor and gave him a shove
biden shuffled oh yeah i'll speed it up
obviously
ortho started talking and pausing and
then talking some more and then pausing
you've heard the term pregnant pause joe
biden's pauses where third try master
queen tuplets these pauses were ready to
burst here's one of them
so the best way to get something done if
you if you hold it down with brazil
absolutely no idea
if uh if you share and anything in the
news
i'll check it out near and dear to you
that you uh um like to be able to
anyway
i'm ready to get a lot done
not that america we're going to get a
lot done a lot of course we'll get a lot
more done and confuse far fewer people
if we go ahead and read our policy
positions from small pieces of paper
that others have painstakingly prepared
for us that way we won't lose
consciousness in descendants or
accidentally start a war so on the topic
of north korea oh he was released
wow
yeah i should have shit i didn't have
time to prepare like get a full news
cycle today to get all the news but wow
he was released
can he run again or is he barred
joe biden knew exactly what to do he
found his piece of paper and started
reading the word that had been written
on it
we're consulting with our allies and
partners and uh
there will be uh responses if they
choose to escalate um we will respond
accordingly but i'm also prepared
um for some form of diplomacy it's got
to be pretty intimidating to the north
koreans of course are watching it in
real time he can run wow so what do you
i don't know the situation but is he
how's his chances because i heard
he's like too popular in brazil that
they had to you know they've got nukes
in pyongyang now that means they
probably have cable tv too don't
underestimate these people they're
crafty of course north koreans are
already deeply afraid of job and they
know that he means business they
remember the time that biden beat the
crap out of the entire kim family with
the chain he nelson mandela back in 86
you've heard the story they've lived it
it's part of their lore and now this
nursery is facing not just joe biden's
masculinity but an entire piece of paper
with instructions on it that joe biden
is perfectly willing to read any time he
needs to that cue card is joe biden's
secret weapon in the fight against
earlier
um hold on i'm gonna check this out
amazon workers strike in italy
wow uh 75 percent of employees struck
um
yeah amazon reported it's like political
company employs one of 9 500 workers
directly across the country
um
wow how did they organize it
the strike took place means a major
campaign by the trade unions in the
united states to secure recognition of
um
wow
the unions did not raise a single
concrete demand really to wages working
hours or conditions is the reason for
the action rather their central demand
is that amazon agreed to negotiate with
them on terms of a national agreement
and establish stable trade so it looks
like the established unions in italy
were clashing with
amazon
but you guys have to keep in mind that
this is not a spontaneous action
this is established italian unions
that already exist and i have already
that are national unions
um
that are driving this
um but wow interesting
i think people need to look at the
national element of this though because
this is you can also view this in the
context of this is there's nothing okay
let me say something else controversial
this is not internationalist proletarian
solidarity going on this is a situation
of a
sovereign italian national unions are
clashing with an american foreign
corporation
about the conditions and circumstances
of the workplace
so
you guys have to keep that in mind don't
just look at this and automatically
think
you know this is the fertile ground of
20th century style proletarian
international
you know revolution it's not
but you know
um obviously
progressive people in italy
are going to be definitely
on the case you know
um
but you guys got to remember that these
are national established unions
um
you guys got to keep that in mind this
isn't like you know
uh
let's read more you know i said dsa is
attempting to strike as an argument for
strengthening trade union apparatuses
strategy their work is to unite
well you have to have the strong unions
in place in the first place
um the last decades of italian
conventions through the process of
utilization
fueled the props of incorporation into
the italian state
this is what okay this is the key thing
right here you just got it right here
the key thing in the last two decades
italian confederation unions went
through a process of
institutionalization following an
embrace of social dialogue and
corporatism from the 1990s onwards which
fueled the process of incorporation into
the italian state unions gained access
to policymaking but in
exchange conceded waived evaluation and
then to industrial conflict this
especially hurt the union's ability to
mobilize the periphery of the labor
market notably the emerging logistics
injury
okay
um
and what has happened to this
okay regardless of those concessions
nothing like this happened in america
the the american unions
um
they don't have any type of leverage
compared to this they they've been
weakened
tremendously weakened you know
um
this is the key thing i want you guys to
pay attention to this this is so
important literally this is so so so
important okay
the only thing they're doing is that
their aim is to force amazon back to the
negotiating table to establish the
normal industrial relations that exist
in other sectors in other words
italian unions were incorporated into
the italian state and they came to a
certain understanding that there's going
to be a normal
level of
standards for italian industries amazon
came to italy and is bypassing those
standards so this is where the union is
intervening so there's a political and
national element of sovereignty versus
this kind of globalization whatever
amazon american union i mean that's the
key thing here
this is not spontaneous workers strikes
like how it happened in the 19th century
or the 20th century where locally
workers just went on strike and it just
spontaneously happened there's a deeply
political and national aspect to this
that can't be taken for granted in
america in america
you know um
yeah
but interesting news interesting news
let's get back to tucker though because
we're we got to come back to america
even though we're kind of in an
international platform all right one
last thing
what is this
liberty to the communist party of the
social republic of vietnam
this is the liberation world thing
right
you can be easy america and that's good
news because we've got problems of our
own in this country one of our biggest
problems is voting it's getting harder
and harder to vote there are some people
in america biggest let's just call them
they are who are demanding that we know
voters identities before we let them
choose our government they want people
to show ids at the polls if you can even
imagine in 2021 these bigots joe biden
explained today are republicans
and so i'm convinced that we'll be able
to stop this because it is the most
unions operating on principles of power
leftists don't get that in our yeah yeah
very true king john in the 21st century
especially unions are inherently
political if they don't have some kind
of
connection to a political power of some
kind
whether that's the state in the case of
italy or it's um alternative you know
opposition party
that wields a tremendous amount of power
and leverage over the state as is a
hypothetical scenario in the case of
america
you know there's no pure
union economic struggle anymore there's
no such thing
pernicious thing this makes jim crow
look like jim eagle
jim eagle who's jim eagle a comic book
hero from the 50s some kind of dog-faced
pony soldier we didn't know who jim
eagle was when scorings were google
machines to look it up then we realized
duh we're being way too literal here
it's an analogy crow eagle they're both
birds but an eagle is much bigger than a
crow well to be fair i understood that
instead asking people to show a driver's
license when they vote is much more
racist than segregation and lynchings
segregation and lynchings were jim crow
voter ids are jim eagle way worse and
that makes sense when you think about it
most black people don't have
government-issued ids and that's why
they can't drive cars or fly on
airplanes or whole jobs super weird
irony of this is that biden himself was
a segregation-era democrat
i mean
understand hotels or the doctor or cash
checks or sign rental agreements or buy
homes or open bank accounts or purchase
sudafed at cvs black people can't do any
of those things because they don't have
ids millions and millions of them don't
have id's and it's sad as joe biden
often points out now you might think the
solution to this tragedy would be make
it easier for americans to get id's
subsidize them if you have to no job is
a better idea just make sure okay on
that topic guys
and i don't know if you live in the
united states
but getting a fucking id like a driver's
license is the most
everyone has i i've never heard of
someone who had a good experience at the
fucking dmv
i don't know if it's the same in other
states that's what they call the dmv the
department of motor whatever
you have to wait five hours every time
you fucking go to get your id
and i'm not exaggerating are you
planning on getting your id
will prepare to take the whole fucking
day off just to do it
yeah
then it's super inefficient super
outdated
and that's why americans hate
governments
no one ever has to show an id in order
to vote and that way the millions and
millions and millions of african
americans who somehow don't have ids
won't feel bad or left out they still
won't be able to drive cars or have jobs
or bank accounts or live anywhere but at
least they can vote a lot and the rest
of us won't be racist problem solved
there's joe biden just told us he's
gonna get a lot done and not just the
next four years by the way but in the
four year
um
marathon oil workers fight for safety
in nebraska wow
teamsters
yeah that's a real union
locked out marathon oil refining workers
can you pick it here 24 7
200 workers
uh
wow after a one-day strike the central
issues of the fighting
you're fighting not just for yourselves
for the safety of the community
surrounding the refinery where you
work huh
wow
what's their chances for success
what do you think i don't know anything
about the situation on the ground but uh
wow
nebraska
200
wow
what are their chances
here's after that joe biden is running
again he told us that today too by the
end of his second term joe biden will be
86 years old that's a full decade past
the life expectancy of the average
american member for the record has
already exceeded it but there's nothing
average about joe biden time improves
him like certain varieties of artisanal
cheese joe biden is meant to be aged he
just gets sharper and more pungent his
next campaign will be even tastier
have you decided whether you were going
to run for reelection in 2024 you
haven't set up a relationship yet has
your predecessor had by this time my
friend said i need to need it too my
predecessor oh god i miss him um now the
answer is yes my plan is to run for
re-election what do you just say oh god
i miss him
wow
my plan is to run for re-election now we
weren't in the room when joe biden said
that but according to those who were
there was an audible gas with horror
from behind the curtain sources said it
sounded very much like kamala harris we
can't confirm that but we can tell you
that joe biden has already picked a
theme for his next campaign the theme is
unity now wait a second you might be
thinking wasn't unity the theme of the
last campaign the one that just ended in
november yes it was but that wasn't
enough unity there is more unity on the
way ladies and gentlemen bucket loads of
it tractor trailer loads full imagine
every swimming pool in malibu tops to
the brim with unity and then at all the
pools in bel air that's how much unity
we're talking about and by unity of
course being policies that make
americans hate each other much more than
they ever have that's what your body has
given us so far and soon we'll have more
the third reason i said i was running
what's this
matt
massachusetts
over dangerous understand you know one
thing that this platform if we get big
infrared can do
is that
being real guys
800 people
800 people is no small number that's a
lot of fucking people you know
um
the problem is media nobody gives these
things attention you know but i hope
that our platform will grow to a point
where we can start being a platform to
give this type of shit attention you
know we can just plat we can you know
we can cover it and we can spin them
politically and make them
make it entertaining to watch
um
so there's so so we can talk about these
things on stream
and we can show people that's an example
that it can work that they've done it
here you could do it there yeah we could
you we could interview union officials
we could do things there's a lot of
things we could do with our platform you
know
um
a big problem is the lack of media media
attention so we could use our platform
for that
and
you know um
i hope we'll get to that point you know
what do you like the country
and generally speaking all of you said
no you can't do that
well i'm not being able to unite the
congress but i've been united in the
country based on the polling data
we have to come together you know i'm
not going to critique anyone but
in terms of all the lefty streamers on
twitch
they i i you know they they never really
cover anything like that you know they
never they never
focus attention on these kinds of things
and i get that it's hard to make those
entertaining and engaging that an
audience will care about them but
i don't know i feel like it's better
than just kind of this okay i'm just
gonna name hassan like every time i
watch hassan he's always like there's
nothing we could do we're fucked we're
doomed it's like dude but you you know
you have the attention of like
over 20k people that's a huge
achievement and there's a lot you could
do with that you could do a lot with
that dude it's not you know you you
yourself have a lot of
you know reach and i get that you know
if you if you can easily lose that reach
if you're not entertaining people
and i 100 get that but you know you
could still do a lot with it you know
oh the polling data the real currency of
washington now we haven't checked the
polling data ticker today but we have to
tell you that we approached this one
specific claim of some degree of
skepticism not every one of joe biden's
unifying policies has fully unified the
country just yet there's still some
crotchety holdouts deep in the american
interior who aren't fully sold on his
freshman program of being humiliated
berated disarmed and taxed into poverty
and powerlessness those people were
bigots obviously they're probably
friends with the snakehealth evangelical
freaks who complain when some dude shows
up at their eight-year-old daughter's
locker room but whatever he can't please
everyone you know who you can please
that with your job the media reporters
are highly pleased they're one group
that remains utterly united in their
love and support of job and the polling
data show it joe biden knows this well
he's not pandering to reporters japan is
bigger than that it's not like the
washington post is a credit card company
from delaware he doesn't need to slobber
on them so today joe biden explained
that despite his massive successes on
our southern border the ones you're
seeing on tv he is not ready to show
reporters exactly what he's doing down
there that's for him to know and them to
find out
we haven't seen the facilities in which
children are packed together to really
give the american people a chance to see
that will you commit to transparency on
this welcome to transparency and as soon
as i am in a position to be able to
implement what we're doing right now
well that's kind of unusual you don't
often hear a politician admit that he's
rejecting openness and embracing secrecy
they usually lie about that but nacho
biden biden tends to say the unspoken
things out loud whereas opaque is a
shower curtain he told the prescott
there's nothing you can do about it
it's pretty provocative of course it is
but provocative in a way that reporters
enjoy it they're naughty those reporters
they like to be teased deny them what
they ask for and they want more here's a
lady from state media national public
radio flush with wonder as she describes
the remarkable personal qualities of her
boss joe biden
you've said over and over again that
immigrants should come to this country
right now this is the time to come that
message is not being received instead
the perception of you that got you
elected as a moral decent man is the
reason why a lot of people are coming to
the country and trusting you without a
company miners
when you call a man moral and decent in
your question to him it kind of sets the
frame as they say but is a moral decent
man is running this country ladies and
gentlemen that's the message of unity by
the way it's a required message so
repeat to yourself five times and repeat
it everyone you know if you don't you're
racist
one
um i want to check out the friendly
highlights now
the abc one
it's owned by disney so damn look at
this
look at this dislike ratio holy
shit okay clearly they they find this
very biased
press announcement not press conference
yeah they didn't really glyph grill him
wow we're gonna check this out a little
more
people
december i indicated that i hope to get
100 million shots in people's arms
in my first 100 days
we met that goal last week by day 58
42 days ahead of schedule
now today i'm setting the second goal
and that is
we will buy my 100th something i think
trump did really well
is he revealed how much it's all about
ego and you could really tell biden is
just bragging here
in a really similar way trump used to
you know
trump was just more open about it okay
leninist
i get it dude there's a lot there's a
lot
there's a lot of stuff okay dude you
don't have to spam me with every fucking
article
workers in manchester and beyond have
joined the picket line and
okay
the bosses are determined to break the
strike they have relocated
did they win or did they just win
solidarity
they won solidarity did they win in
terms of getting their demand
the boss is determined to break the
strike their reloads
40 40 co-workers ah that's it's
interesting
you know
but
if you're just gonna give me stuff from
strikes all around the world dude we're
gonna not have we're gonna
we're just gonna be you know it's
i'm sorry to say but we're not gonna
learn anything you know
we're just gonna you know be looking at
articles from strikes everywhere across
the world
which are happening all the time you
know
um
uh let's see
yeah the strike's not over so it's i
don't think they won
but
we gotta chill dude
in office have administered 200 million
shots
in people's arms those who are coming
across the border who are unaccompanied
children
were moving rapidly to try to put in
place what was dismantled as i said for
example
of all the children are coming across
the border over 70 percent are either 16
or 17 years old
we're not talking about people ripping
babies from mother's arms or little
three-year-olds was that um what was the
percentage in the trump era this is what
i'm curious about stan on the border
less than i think it's one and a half
percent
fall in the category of the very young
the idea that i'm going to say
which i would never do
if an unaccompanied child ends up at the
border we're just going to let them
starve to death and stay on the other
side
no previous administration did that
either except trump
i'm not going gonna do it
i'm not gonna do it did he do that
i don't know if he did that
did he did trump say that
deciding that you're gonna end voting at
five o'clock when working it just seems
like
biden is willing to virtue signal about
it but that doesn't really tell us about
how the people at the border themselves
are acting it's not like biden just
sacked everyone who was working at the
border and replaced them with entirely
new people
i mean
i'm pretty sure the people like who are
actually the guards at the border are
the same people
so
for just getting off work
deciding that there will be no absentee
ballots under the most rigid
circumstances
it's all designed and i'm going to spend
my time doing three things
one
trying to figure out how to pass the
legislation passed by the house
number one number two
educating the american public
the republican voters i know
find this despicable
republican voters
of folks out in the
outside this white house i'm not talking
about
the elected officials i'm talking about
voters
voters
have you decided whether you are going
to run for re-election in 2024 you
haven't set up a re-election campaign
yet as your predecessor had by this time
my friend said i need to need it to
my predecessor
oh god i miss him um
no an answer is yes my plan is to run
for reelection that's my expectation no
american president ever
backed down from speaking out on what's
happening in the uyghurs
what's happening in hong kong
what's happening in in in country
that's who we are
the moment a president walks away from
that as the last one did
is the moment we began to lose our
legitimacy around the world
it's who we are
so i see stiff competition
with
china
china has an overall goal
and i don't criticize them for the goal
but they have an overall goal to become
the leading country in the world the
wealthiest country in the world and the
most powerful country in the world
that's not going to happen on my watch
[Laughter]
i mean it's probably not going to happen
under your watch because judging by how
your eyes looked
just last year it doesn't look like much
falls under your watch at all looks like
your field of vision is very narrow and
probably doesn't extend past your few
feet
ahead of you i don't know how anything
gets in your watch
[Music]
hi everyone
not under my watch i mean probably not
no because you're going to be sleeping
um that was cute
let's see politicos
wow look at these dislike ratios are off
the wall
please please stop thank you thank you
we will by my 100th day in office have
administered 200 million shots
in people's arms
that's right 200 million shots in 100
days
i know it's ambitious
twice our original goal
but no other country in the world has
even come close you've said over and
over again that immigrants shouldn't
come to this country right now this
isn't the time to come that message is
not being received instead the
perception of you that got you elected
as a moral decent man is the reason why
a lot of immigrants are coming to this
country and entrusting you with
unaccompanied minors well look i guess i
should be flattered
people are coming because i'm the nice
guy that's the reason why it's happening
if an unaccompanied child ends up at the
border we're just gonna let him starve
to death and stand the other side
trump so do you believe it should take
60 votes to end a filibuster on
legislation or 51
it's not you know this is a really weird
press conference it seems like people
are just lining up to kiss his ass and
i've never seen a press conference with
you know that was like this with trump
not my expertise and what the
parliamentary rules on how to get there
are but
our preoccupation with the filibuster is
totally legitimate but in the meantime
we got a lot we can do he doesn't really
strike me as very presidential what do
you guys think
just um a neutral non-political
observation of some kind as a layman he
doesn't really strike me as a president
he seems like he's like a
he's like a secretary or he's a stand-in
for
we don't know who the president it seems
like we the president is in occultation
and this is just kind of like a manager
or something he seems like a manager
yeah he seems like a walmart supervisor
there's nothing really presidential
about him
um trump was very presidential because
he was a character he was like
he was a very elephantine kind of
character
um even obama obama was a unique
personality as well obama you know
he was also a care
look
all presidents that that have been
within my lifetime had this quality of
being able to animate the crowd it's
almost like they have a special touch
that just allows them to kind of set the
mood and you know
um exude this sense of presidentialness
even george w you know even him
biden i think is the first president in
my lifetime
that really doesn't strike me as a
president at all there's nothing
presidential like i don't look at this
guy and i don't think this is the
president i just think
this is some kind of
manager or special
you know
supervisor or something
while we're talking about what we're
going to do about the filibuster
regarding the filibuster he doesn't the
problem with him is that he doesn't have
the forcefulness of a president and it's
it's because of his health situation he
doesn't have this kind of
active
persona or personality
at john lewis's funeral president barack
obama said he believed the filibuster
was a relic of the jim crow era do you
agree
yes
if not why not abolish it if it's a
relic of the jim crow era let's figure
out how we can get this done
and move in the direction
of significantly changing the abuse of
even the filibuster rule
first
you're moving closer to eliminating the
filibuster is that correct
i answered your question
i want to go back to voting rights are
you worried that
if you don't manage to pass
voting rights legislation okay mr judo i
i agree with you
but
i don't think it's a lot on twitch so
let's chill
that your party is going to lose seats
and possibly lose control of the house
and the senate in 2022. what i'm worried
about is how unamerican
this whole initiative is
it's sick
it's sick
and so i'm convinced
that we'll be able to stop this because
it is the most pernicious thing this
makes jim crow look like jim eagle have
you decided whether you are going to run
for re-election in 2024 you haven't set
up a re-election all right um i think
that's enough of biden i think we've got
the gist of his news conference which
was not
that much um he covered
the border um
he said we're going to be moving out
thousands of kids out quickly i got
ford's blitz opened up that's why i've
been
okay we'll
see uh the cover 19 vaccines
reopening schools uh
schools are
half of half of them are open k through
eight
um
stimulus payments
infrastructure
physical and technological
infrastructure in the country
in pitts pittsburgh
you know across the whole country i
wonder what that's gonna look like
voting rights filibuster reform
we'll see
we'll see we'll see what happens
um does he have the executive power to
abolish the filibuster
would there be a way to eliminate it
the senate has to do it
so i don't know how
how they would abolish this filibuster
the straightforward cluster would
formally change the text of the senate
rule 22.
um how would you do that
is there executive power
yeah i don't know
i don't know how it would be possible
um
okay
all right i think i'm gonna start taking
collins now because we have more on the
news we don't actually have more news we
have content and
if we watch the if we do the content
first we're not going to be able to get
into any columns so let's uh let's begin
the collins now we're going to be taking
collins right about now i'm going to get
into the show queue
so you can see me on this uh
right here
right here you can see me
let's take five to ten minute collins
and i'm gonna time them so don't say i'm
being rude if i cut you off
you know please more news i'm really
sleepy okay we'll do more news we'll do
more news okay we'll do more news
i'm gonna let people prepare to
to get into
i want people to prepare for the call-in
so prepare to get in the show queue
and uh when when we're done with the
news
we'll continue we have more news though
we do have more news so
just prepare yourselves guys
um
this is something i found
super sus and i've been having this
working schizo theory and i wanted to
share with you guys
prince harry has taken up a second job
in two days this time at the
commissioner for the aspen institute
examining the state of american
misinformation and disinformation
so i okay in the discord i came up with
a crazy idea any debates maybe maybe i
heard destiny said something and maybe
i'll go on destiny's show today
i don't know
i'll have to check twitch let me see is
he on twitch right now
um let's see
yeah he's playing a game called dark
wood
um
destiny
he's not doing anything so we might be
able to go on destiny's show today we
might be doing that later today
like tonight it might be happening
tonight
um
so
yeah let's just look at this this is
paywall but
let me tell you guys a few a working
theory i've been having about this royal
family this is a completely schizo
theory it's left field
it's very unlikely
you know it's probably not going to
happen but
i want to get you guys thinking about it
so the media has been really focusing on
this royal couple
and
i i wonder if they're going to start
getting involved in american politics
and if i start seeing that they get
involved in american politics here's my
theory
the great reset deep state wants to prop
these two up to restore
monarchy over america
as an extension of the british ruling
and that the conflict with the british
royal family was completely artificial
and fake
and that
all of this is being set up to install
them as the fucking monarchs of america
now you might find this crazy but
it would make total sense
meghan markle is half she's mixed she's
she's part black and that
speaks to american culture and a
significant portion of the american
population it looks like they're setting
these people up
to be the the the monarchs of america i
mean
it's let's speculate guys i don't know i
don't know you know
i don't know what the what the fuck is
going on but that sounds like something
that would make sense
that sounds like something that would
make sense do i have any evidence for it
no
do i have any
any evidence at all to
to back this up absolutely none
but if these two start getting involved
in american politics more she's eligible
from what i hear to run for president so
if she starts getting involved in
politics
and if they start getting involved in
politics at all
that's gonna tell me that this was all
set up and that they're being set up to
because yeah america remember when i
told you guys america doesn't have a
state and i explained that through the
lens of hegel and all that kind of stuff
well stars are aligning and it would
make a lot of sense that the deep states
and the elites think that some kind of
constitutional monarchy something like
that will solve america's crisis and
solve its problem and heal its wounds or
whatever
um
yeah this this one's not paywall prince
harry joins us initiative to tackle fake
news why
why is he getting involved in this
um
15 members the commission from
information disorder set up by the aspen
institute the aspen institute is has a
sketchy background
um
it's tied to
who is it tied to
funded by the carnegie corporation the
rockefeller brothers fund the gates
foundation the lumina foundation and the
ford foundation
these are just about the holy grail
right here of conspiracy theorists the
gates foundation ford foundation the
rockefeller brothers fund the carnegie
corporation
um
but someone specifically is involved in
this
and let me find the source cause
logo the guy named logo on twitter he
was talking about this
uh
let me find the guy here he is he was
talking about this
damn
can't show that on stream
he was talking about it where
on if you if he holds near and dear to
you that you uh
let me find it i'm looking for it right
now
here it is
so who's involved
it's bankrolled by the guy who started
craigslist
craig newark
this guy this is who it's bankrolled by
um
and
craig's been a huge founder of
politifact and other such internet media
fact-checking regulation
super weird
super sketchy i mean super weird i don't
know that was my kind of schizo theory i
there's no
there's no you know
there's no evidence for it there's no
justification for it but do i believe it
yes
why do i believe it
i don't know
i have no idea
i have no idea i just wanna i wanna
believe it i wanna believe it
because it's good optics not just
because it's good optics but because it
just makes sense i want to believe it
because it makes sense you know
i'm not a you know i'm not going to try
and say
factually
i know this is the truth but
i don't know i'm pondering i'm wondering
you know i'm curious
i'm curious
i'm quite curious
so that was some news
um i actually wanted to watch this this
is an hour long and i wanted to
personally watch it so i was like why
don't i save it on stream it's a young
people debate about human rights in
china and the us so this is a debate set
up by cgtn where people are going to
debate about human rights in china
versus the us and i think this is super
interesting and i want to watch it but
i'm going to let you guys decide do we
want to bring people on the show
or do we want to do this because
nobody's in
the show cue
um
do this
people are boring i want this i agree
people are fucking boring let's do this
alright let's check this out we we can
go uh
1.5 speed let's do that
callers debate destiny
that's on cgdn i'm in beijing there has
been this age-old question what are
human rights they're different points of
view obviously in the united states
people pride themselves i could actually
dm destiny now and i could probably
i could probably go on destiny he's not
doing anything right now he's just
playing games i could probably go on
having the right to vote to assemble to
protest and to freely express themselves
you think these rights made their
country one of the greatest powers in
history of the world whereas in china
and many other asian civilizations
people argue that human rights should
also entail the right to food to shelter
to safety health and security and that
the collective rights should not be
compromised at the expense of individual
rights in the united states trump's
immigration policies were described by
many as inhumane the black lives matter
movement highlighted racial pensions and
the united states unfortunately
registered the highest number of kobe 19
deaths in china there has also been
concerns over violations of human rights
for example over the freedom of speech
the treatment of weaker in xinjiang and
also on the issues talking to destiny
would be a good move
hmm
[Music]
but what do i talk what would i talk to
him about because i actually if i talk
to him i have to be serious
um it has to be a chill conversation but
what is the conversation gonna be about
oh he's talking to dylan burns right now
actually let me check let me see
um
do not go on his channel don't bother
you know don't don't do it because i can
just dm him so don't worry you don't
have to like do anything mouth like this
time like congratulations hey come on
which part of that don't you i think
that lance is like
well wait a second easily one of like
the most violent fucks on this platform
in terms of how you promote like
approaches like argumentation and
everything absolutely aren't i a nice
person
yeah but you weren't
okay
let's just watch this and by the time
we're done with this
um
we're going to
we're going to get into the we're going
to go on destiny probably tonight
in hong kong so which side is right the
debate never ends today i'm very pleased
to be joined by eight brilliant young
men and women and they're here to debate
this enduring question which country's
record of human rights supports humans
more china talk philosophy but destiny
said he only cares about policy you know
um
i could probably try to he i don't think
he's he's dogmatic about like what
communism and socialism means
it's just that he he it has to be
relevant yeah it needs to be something
concrete you know that
that that's what i think too
he's destiny's not really like an
intellectual you know he's more focused
on
yeah any states
the proposition team argues that china
he enjoys philosophical combos
human rights records supports humans
more whereas the opposition team argues
the human rights record of the united
states supports humans more
now let me quickly introduce the team
members zoom ahmed han researcher at
cinquan university
also shenzhou rome a lecturer at beijing
international studies university
nina huang schwarzman scholar at
sinclair university
sunny miwani director of academics at
the national i want to talk today i can
talk destiny about like heidegger and
modernity and
what we think is philosophy and things
like that you know
national high school debate league of
china from the opposition team we have
with us veronica students at china
women's university wang xiao president
of peking university english debating
society also yeah
master student at deakin university last
but not least
eastern international journalism and
communication student from singapore
university welcome to all of you now
let's get right to it the constructive
speech part that is the first session of
today's debate
let's get right to it each team will
have four minutes to make their case
when there is 30 seconds left we will
let you know by the ring of a bell now i
would like to invite the first speaker
of the day zum ahmed han you may proceed
thank you
thank you
ladies and gentlemen today the
proposition proudly proposes that it is
not the united states but china whose
human rights record and whose actions
and policies have supported human beings
more have supported in our understanding
human rights more
it is not the idea of human rights that
matters it is not ideal that matter but
in reality the consequences of the
policies that a country promotes that a
country pursues if you look at china
china is a country that supports to a
great extent collectivism that supports
the notion that the society has to come
together and make sure that those that
are worst off are being taken care of it
is in this very spirit that domestically
china has been able to uplift 750
million people out of poverty it is also
in this spirit that amid score with 19
when unfortunately countries that
supposedly are the custodians of human
rights and individual rights has
resulted that whose policies have
resulted in drastic consequences and
loss of human life it is china that
prioritize the lives before everything
else and today we see the consequences
of that have also been positive on the
economy we see that despite the fact
that china has had to compromise on
economic growth they prioritize
uplifting people from absolute poverty
once again
should i uh slower the speed or is this
a good speed guys because i kind of
think the speed should be lowered a bit
but i'll i'll bring it back if you guys
want
remember that these people in china are
the ones that have benefited from a
trajectory a mindset now let's look more
broadly china is now a country whose
international approach is increasing
whose regional initiatives are taking
place are picking up ace as well and
here we will talk about the belgian road
initiative of course because this is an
initiative that has helped uplift
countries and communities from a vicious
cycle of poverty from a vicious cycle of
destruction this is an initiative that
is today helping yeah it's it's at 1.2
point it's at 1.25 right now for
millions of people across developing
countries helping enhance opportunities
for them and i believe as a person
representing the proposition that these
are very important realities that need
to be recognized
rights human rights as much as we wish
them are not handed on a silver platter
it is easy to say that people are born
with rights people are born with human
dignity but the reality is that
proactive approach is required to make
sure that people's rights are delivered
to them and there i believe that out of
both these options between china and the
us china is domestically as well as
regionally playing a more positive role
so once again we would like to say that
china has in uh practicality promoted
human rights human dignity domestic and
abroad and unfortunately that is less
than the case for the united states
thank you
zu hamedhan thank you so much for your
opening statement now i would like to
invite veronica ludaka from the
opposition team to make her case
veronica please
thank you
um it's important for us to understand
why human rights are universal and
inalienable and not only chinese or
american
this is why
uh it is you cannot lose these rights
and cannot be denied a right just
because a state has decided that it is
less important or not essential so this
is why by bed right you are entitled to
free trial free speech free assembly
right to religion and privacy just to
mention a few therefore any state who
revises these rights in the name of
state security or making any excuses is
just pretending
they are visions of these human rights
unfortunately usa and china hold
different political ideologies
she already mentioned that china takes
collectivism which is
a socialist approach while usa is
democratic so for us to understand which
of these two systems
from a broader perspective supports
human rights more let me start by
explaining these two systems so that we
can
make our point broader in democracy
power is vested in the people through
representation and people i think she's
saying that
human rights
is individualism something like that
it's based on individual human rights
based on their critical analysis
and government decisions are a direct
influence of the people
for example policies are implemented
from the bottom up approach
policies are made for man and not man
for the policies so when you look at
socialism which is china
the approach is where top officials
guided by party ideologies tend to take
center stage which can create a social
distance resulting to the ignorance of
human rights
policies reflect
the interest of a party and not of the
people which is not a clear definition
of human rights otherwise the undhr
would not have
had a meeting to implement human rights
in the first place so whatever comes
from the government does not depict the
interests of the people but the interest
of a category of people which is the
party
statistics which come from a dependent
and independent source freedom house
raised china as a six
the lowest the second lowest possible
rank in political freedom
so let's look at statistics in the usa
just so we can make our point clear
the united states is generally given
high to fair marks on human rights for
example the freedom in the world index
lists united states the highest category
for freedom of expression
in civil and political rights with 86
out of 100 points the cir human rights
data project
places the us-38 overall in human rights
united states is also considered to have
a high degree of press freedom with the
2017 freedom of press report by freedom
house labeling the level of press
freedom in the united states as free
ranking it 33rd out of 199 countries
let me go on to say that in democracy
and in communism you have a choice and
accountability
democracy people have the ability and
right question open criticism and rights
of choice if they are not satisfied they
hold a government accountable this is
where you see united states senate able
to impeach a whole president because
they dream him not fit to lead the
people and he's violating human rights
well guys it's a fucking debate so you
got to hear both sides
let's hear her argument and then we'll
see how they respond
and because usa
to become a leader
no matter if we're talking about
personal growth or nations one should be
proud of their strengths but also
acknowledge their weaknesses identify
their role models and admire them
aim to surpass them over time by doing
better work awareness shouldn't make
anyone anxious or feel vulnerable but
rather more grounded and realistic thank
you
thank you veronica and i would like to
invite the second speaker to make
opening statements
first from the proposition team
shenzhorum please
thank you my colleagues from the
opposition side first of all i'd like to
respond to some of the points you just
mentioned i'd like to point out politely
that political system today is not under
debate we're actually talking about
which country supports more human rights
so it's always about the concrete
results it's always about who delivers
and also you've mentioned that also and
also you've mentioned about the freedom
of speech i want to point out that i
want to go to a very famous line oh
liberty what crimes have been committed
in thy name just because you have
freedom's freedom of speech does not
mean that it could guarantee the human
rights for example donald trump's
freedom of speech were well protected
but he had incited many riots and many
misconceptions about the prevention of
covet which actually harmed more human
rights than it supported and after that
even this freedom of uh the freedom of
speech of donald trump were spammed
this is a super paradoxical thing we're
dealing with is that the problem is that
liberals in the u.s are going jumping
through you know they're doing olympic
twists and
just to say oh well that's not a matter
of freedom of speech that's they're
inventing new words that's a mentor a
matter of incitement or that's a matter
of election interference or that's a
matter of you know they're spinning it
in new ways to maintain the sanctity and
purity of liberalism but it's just not
working
ironic and i would like to point out
that there are universality and
particularities of human rights china
embraces a human right that centers on
the people not some hollowed
up in the air ideals and people are what
the human rights are all about and i'd
like to point out that china has lifted
750 million people out of poverty
contributing to more than 80 percent of
the total population that has been
lifted out of out of poverty globally
and i would also like to say that the
human rights cause in china was about
supporting people not just in terms of
economy but also in terms of health
education environment and development as
my team teammate just mentioned now
let's take a look at the u.s let's take
a look at this i charges human rights
record
first of all let's talk about the world
mongering effort of the united states
ever since the world war ii the u.s had
its fingers on almost every wars since
that dprk iran iraq syria afghanistan
the list goes on and on isn't it ironic
to see your country that
wages wars against other countries in
the name of in the in the name of
respecting the rule of law respecting
the human rights of other countries well
in fact what they are doing is rape
women is to torture the prisoner of
force and to kill civilians randomly
they have wiped out millions of people
with their social engineering with their
regime change with their intervention
and with their wars so i'm wondering if
in the minds of the u.s only the human
rights of americans are worth protecting
and worth supporting oh wait a minute it
isn't let's look at what happens in the
united states the u.s does support human
rights more only if you're white
human rights defined by the constitution
is just a fine line of the is only the
last fine line to protect human rights
not that's nowhere near to support it
equality sounds nice in real economies a
sense nice in constitution but in fact
black lives only matter because they
have suffered too long from a systemic
oppression on the rise of minorities and
the institutionalized discrimination
against minorities has been ex has been
existing for as long as there is america
minorities face unjust treatment in
every aspect of their lives be it
education health and employment
he's taking liberal talking points
he's gone woke
well you have to understand that
the
the chinese are not used to dealing with
the internal politics of other countries
they are used to minding their own
business but just recently
maybe the past year i guess because
america has been up all in china's
business china is looking at the
prevailing internal criticisms that are
being leveled levied against america
and they're looking at the ones that are
internal to china itself you know so
um
you know
but i think these are
more or less these are not really
objectionable points he's raising
yeah exactly he's talking liberal
talking points because those are the
ones that are ready at hand and prevail
but as time goes on china is going to
start realizing that
this is my prediction i mean i don't
know i could be wrong that china is
going to have to start taking internal
politics of america more seriously
and um what that's going to evolve into
and look like is going to be very
interesting to see i already have my own
suspicions and predictions about what
it's going to be like
but
we're looking at the very immature
stages of china's critique of the us
um
[Music]
all right let's watch
excuses me that sigma freud takes his
lifelong effort at psychology to earn
his name but george floyd only takes one
line to be famous around the world that
is when he's trampled under the knee of
the police of a policeman saying i can't
breathe thank you
thank you shane jerome
next up from the opposition team
mr wang yishou
hello everyone firstly i would like to
have three quick responses towards their
point the first point is about how china
uplifts this kind of like poverty right
wow this is
this is the university in beijing
so this guy's in china he's actually
chinese himself it seems like he's on
the english debate team
in china
but it's in china it's all located in
china so why aren't they censoring him i
thought china censors all criticism
of the state
or whatever you know
we admit that it is correct but today's
debate is about comparative right you
should know that that u.s have already
have like more people more proportion
like middle classes which means that
people in the u.s are comparatively
richer right but secondly they talk
about how u.s have this kind of
intervention and uh like to other
countries and how you can make things
worse in these kind of countries the
first response to that is that at least
you guys tried to protect human rights
but secondly we told you that they don't
tell us what is a comparative look like
right for instance what will like you as
r intervene these kind of things will
things be better at their side of the
house i don't think that is the case
right but thirdly we tell you that
even all the case is true still at our
side house is competitively better
because you guys have a kind of like
self-reflection system you can hold
those kind of uh like bad bad behavior
account for example like they say donald
trump right donald trump just uh lose to
buy that right you can see those kind of
system has its own self correction uh
like system to enable a better outcome
at the end of the day so what am i going
to tell you in this speech i'm going to
talk about two points the first is about
how the u.s can better ensure political
rights and why it is a essentially a
human right right because i think the
other side is saying no it's not human
right it should always look about the
consequences right but secondly i will
also talk about privacy now firstly on
political rights what we all know that
you guys have this kind of election
right and china has this kind of like
representation who actually represent
you right the first problem of this is
that a lot of times i don't even know
who's actually representing me right
it's just like a form or kind of process
that you need to go through and the
people are already determined before you
even choose right but secondly
it is it makes like corruption more
easier to happen because when minority
group of people are actually holding
this kind of power it actually means
that those kind of corruption is more
likely to happen the comparative here is
that in u.s even if you still these kind
of politics are related to financial
financial like situation for example you
still have this kind of lobbying but at
least those kind of things are on the
table the people can see those kind of
lobby right but also those kind of
people who actually have their own
incentive to like for promotion for
their
security of their own position they're
more likely to suppress people's voices
right when people actually want to have
like reflection or report on this group
of people right even if this best case
at their side house uh we still think
that the people need to wait for the
government to like solve the problems
for them comparative is that the
citizens at the u.s can
actively vote to actually voice out
their own voices why do we think that it
is essentially hold on that you need to
hack right by the way guys look at these
people on this side these are what mls
look like by the way
this is what ml's in in the age of
multi-polarity in the post-covered world
look like
you guys got to understand that because
we think that a lot of times the
government have like power towards you
which means that there are oftentimes
make those kind of no i'm not policies
i'm saying they look normal they look
presentable they look modern they look
you know decent
they're not like uh
larping and weird and you know all this
kind of stuff actively affect your life
right there's no way for you to actually
fight back against these kinds look at
that look look at how professional and
modern and stuff they are this is what
they look like in the 21st century
that's right
so map is right when he said to we all
need to start wearing suits
no not necessarily he didn't say that
but i'm just saying yeah i mean in this
context you should be wearing
i mean i kind of go with the iranian
fashion where you don't wear a tie i
don't like ties i i'm against ties but
you have to look nice for something like
this
i mean for something like this
and guys caleb's a a professional he's a
reporter so he has to look professional
you know and and if you're
if you're doing if you're in this formal
setting you should look professional you
know
you cannot like uh you cannot fight back
because the government always have
polices the government have military
forces which means that the people
should have the right to reflect back
their choices to the government now
further further extension on the privacy
i want to point out a very like vivid
example like happening around me right
uh we all have this kind of like remote
exam during coffee 19.
a lot of like my u.s uh classmates told
me that uh they just protest protest is
kind of like camera when you are
actually surveillance on people whether
they are cheating or not right but in
china we just accept this kind of like
arrangement right um i think this kind
of privacy is so important it's also
human right because as already said the
state has already have enough power if
you like give up your
like privacy which means that state have
like even more power over you but
secondly it's about how you actively
have this kind of feeling of being safe
this kind of feeling is so important
because it will actually affect how you
speak out on the internet or like on
other platforms thank you cool
all right thank you very much for the
opening statements now we're entering
the crossfire session the third debater
of the proposition side raises questions
to any of the first second or fourth
debater from the opposition side now is
twist the property i think the imbalance
that's going on here between america and
china discursively is that
the chinese seem to be very familiar
with the arguments on the u.s side
but the americans have no idea what the
chinese are saying
so what does that tell you
i mean as far as which one is more
advanced than the other it seems like
the chinese point of view is shaped and
trialled
by already responding to the liberal
arguments whereas the liberals are
unexposed
and are not robust enough to deal with
the chinese perspective
i can interrupt any time while the
opposition side cannot for the team
asking questions he or she would have a
time limit of 30 seconds to ask a
question also bear in mind there needs
to be a question not a statement not a
comment not a rhetorical question
now enoch from the proposition team you
may proceed
thank you um so let me kick start with a
couple of short questions
um i have a dream
when when was that dude his son
sentenced it by martin luther king dude
this
suit looks sick as fuck this the blazer
his jacket looks sick as fuck do you
mean the year yeah
it's okay let me remind you 1963 yeah i
can't breathe 50 years later
so the second speaker mentioned about
making progress and development
so my question is um
how does u.s human rights solve problems
as you said in racial discrimination how
does that mean what does that mean for
that 8 minute and 40 seconds of george
floyd what does that mean for vienna
taylor in solving the rate this systemic
racial issue while 99 percent of the
police is never been charged even once
and anyone okay i think the first
response i'm going to make is that you
still see those kind of progress
happening that is the reason why you see
barack obama come to stage right but
secondly i want to talk about like in
china it does not mean discrimination
does not happen in china you still have
this kind of discrimination against like
rural people in this kind of area sure
great so so it still hasn't solved the
problem that was my point after 50 years
nothing has been solved so even with u.s
human rights nothing has been sold
particularly with racial problem after
50 years five decades so he asked me to
make comparison my colleague mentioned
about in 2020 um china has officially
eradicated absolute poverty lifting 750
million uh chinese out of property
that's 80 percent of the world extreme
poverty comparison do you know how many
people are in under property line in the
us
you can just stop sure great so that's
43.5 million americans living in another
property and one in six americans go to
bed hungry with lack of access to
healthy meals and visit the food bank
every year so again that's comparison
for you with hard work four decades 750
million lifted out of poverty so i want
to ask from the u.s perspective zero
versus 43.5 million what does that say
to human rights can i ask back your ass
back you'll have the opportunity next
yeah okay answer the question so i don't
firstly i don't know whether the poverty
standard is the same when you actually
talk about poverty at us and china right
but but i feel do feel like that china
is oftentimes identified ourselves as a
kind of like developing countries which
means that we are still underdeveloped
so are you denying china's achievement
and lifting 750 people out of property
no no we're not we're not denying that
but so please answer the question how
u.s human rights help to lift the 43.5
million which is still living in the
property one out of six out of eight of
us one of us will be going to bed hungry
if we're all americans let me go then to
external externally something that has
been said and many times well by my
colleagues in the name of human rights
and anti-terrorism efforts the u.s have
launched war in afghanistan iraq syria
et cetera since 9 11 conservative
estimate by brown university in the usa
at least 37 million have fled their home
and more than 800 000 people have died
in conflicts with u.s involvement so
here's the thing about these statistics
that
with regard to the death toll i mean
even if
you know technically not over a million
of people we don't even know how many
died in these wars
but even if it's on the lower end of the
estimates
the amount of people who've been
displaced and had their fucking lives
ruined and destroyed over 37 million i
mean
that is fucking unprecedented dude that
is incredible
and just because not everybody's not
everyone's dying doesn't mean they're
not facing this unprecedented calamity
that's hanging over their
war lives
so my question is who should bear the
responsibility for repairing the damage
inflicted on those display refugees and
death 37 million that's human that's
from outside our definition
yeah who should without us intervention
those countries still live under
dictatorship who have no interest so
it's okay for them to die
of restoring that country and helping
them to build up functioning mechanism
functioning institutions so i want to
understand about the 37 million who
don't have homemade what does functional
functional functioning democracy mean
for them i mean in warfare you still
have a lot of confidence it's not just
u.s cost deaths but also multiple
parties so from my understanding uh just
now where is 4.3.5 million americans who
go to bed hungry or 37 million who don't
have home and that's not countered as
human i want to understand my last
question how does u.s human rights
support these people
anyone
in this case arrest my case thank you
okay thank you enoch now i would like to
invite you
from the opposition team to start her
crossfire
thank you
thank you that was very active and
impressive very emotional i'm not that
emotional i'm just trying to deliver
some information so i will ask just a
few questions maybe they will be
rhetorical so i'm gonna break some rules
here i'm sorry
um
let's start with
the basics you decided not to define
human rights so my question is do you
think that
you guys see why we're mla
[Laughter]
that was fucking golden dude that was
golden
connected to human rights
it's literally yes or no question kind
of freedom from corruption is a basic
right that most people deserve
beautiful
do you think that political
representation is connected to human
rights
political representation as such cannot
be
compared nor should it be compared in
this debate
sure
um
personally are you sure that you are
aware about all problems happening in
china
i think we're clear about this question
as much as you're cleared about all the
problems that is happening in the united
states
how can you say so
what is your claim my claim is that the
only reason you're asking this question
because you have no answer to this
question
you can have a personal question i i'm
asking do you believe that you're aware
about all the problems happening in
china
yes i just told you my understanding of
all the problems happening in china it's
the same amount of your understanding of
all the problems happening in the united
states yeah absolutely
um so moving further the question like
um the statement about poverty
alleviation um i have a very broad
question do you know how those people
live
those who were alleviated from poverty
do you know how do they live right now
do you have the statistics how many of
them eat before going to bed
as a matter of fact i was personally
involved in the poverty alleviation part
that actually i covered with some of the
stories there and actually i do i do
believe that those people having been
lifted already are enjoying a better
lives here like what can you give some
examples please if it is possible
of course i know this village person who
is used to live in a very remote areas
they have to travel for
for
miles after miles to get basic
subsistence subsistence for food and
water but now they're living in places
that are closer to the city center so
that they could they could easily get
the necessities for their livelihoods
and i think that is the de facto
improvement of their life qualities and
that's protecting their human rights so
do they still live in rural area or they
move to the city
oh actually the aesthetics and the
effects are why they're up to sea and
now they do not live in the city but
they live in a better side of the they
live in a better neighborhood of the
countryside so you basically say that
the living conditions of the countryside
in china
are much better than those in the us
correct
i specifically did not said that right
i'm saying that their living conditions
right now is better than where they used
to live all right uh moving forward to
solving problems uh do you have any
opinions about the improvement of
alcohol what improvement are you
referring to
do you think that gao kao supports uh
rural area and rural kids and helps them
to get into universities
are you implying that ghaka is somehow
biased against people who live in rural
areas perhaps
you have to be clear whether you are
implying that or not
i do imply that okay uh to the
implication that the
national entrance exam is somehow biased
against people who live in the rural
areas the first observation we have is
how is that relevant
the second observation we have is it is
not biased the third observation we have
is even if there are instances of biases
there is no alternative system that can
take so many high school graduates and
put them through a process which ensures
fair and equitable access to a
university so gaucho is not limited to
china almost all countries on this side
on this
part of the world have national dental
examinations because they deem it to be
the most fair
now fairness concerns are relative and
absolute and in this case it is
relatively fair even if
any other system is proven to be better
thank you sunny and thank you kate time
is up thank you thank you very much
now i would like to welcome the third
debaters from either side to conclude
his or her arguments enoch
they picked weak debaters on the
pro-western side
here's the thing about that two things
the first is that
i think the strong point for all of the
western side of the debates
is just to air all of china's dirty
laundry tiananmen square
and then some of the other unconfirmed
stuff the camps and then human rights
via all that kind of stuff you know
that's coming but you have to understand
there's an information filter going on
that the information we're receiving
about china and america about china's
internal affairs some of them won't hold
up in china not because the government
censors them but because chinese people
themselves themselves know that they're
fucking baseless
and the only people who would ever
believe them are naive americans who
don't actually live in china so this is
one reason why the western side seems so
weak these are people who come from a
university based in beijing
and they're not going to be able to get
away with spewing
absurd western lies and slander about
china not because the government is
censoring it but because no one in their
right mind within china actually
believes in it
um the second thing which is a kind of
side observation is that
to be fair
um leftist or at least not leftist per
se but um i guess anti-imperialists
whenever i see them in debates in the
west they always seem to be on the weak
side as well
so it's you know it seems like there's a
similar dynamic going on with regard to
that
have you seen the chuang article on
spirit breaking
yeah i haven't i know about chuang
though can you give me an example about
a western lie about china
um the events of tiananmen square are
not properly
uh or fairly uh reported
in the west people make it seem like
there was just a bunch of peaceful
protests and the chinese government came
in and killed a bunch of people
it's not what happened it was way more
complicated another thing another lie
that's repeated in the west is that in
china all mention of the tiananmen
square
is banned because nobody knows about it
no everybody knows about tiananmen
square in china it's
regarded as a very tragic um national
event that everyone knows about
um
and the rationale of the government's
actions are well known and repeated
by the through the population itself
which is that
we can't let our country become like
what the soviet union became
um
and people find that argument this to my
the extent of my awareness they find it
pretty convincing
if the u.s saw what u.s is doing in the
u.s the u.s would invade the u.s to
liberate the u.s from the tyranny of the
u.s
this was said by the lebanese permanent
representative to the u.n
this sentence exactly highlights the
hypocrisy the double standard that u.s
has and we do not believe u.s support a
u.s human rights support human at all
in china we believe and we strongly
believe that right to life and right to
health is more important than any other
right because dead people can't speak
and deaf people don't live and therefore
it's very difficult for them to have
rights
and this is demonstrated by the 2020 the
year of 2020 with how the u.s dealt with
covert 19
and if you say otherwise tell that to
that 500 000 people who no longer have
any rights because of how u.s responded
we appreciate accountability materialist
versus idealist do you on display right
here from opposition party we appreciate
having to shout and and provide
alternative facts on on media and press
but however yeah i saw the mehdi hassan
thing
the only reason i don't want to react to
it is one we're gonna probably go on
destiny after this
and two is i already saw it i already
saw the full thing
and i won't i won't be as uh
like i don't i myself don't want to
watch it again
from our perspective we believe having
to live is more important than before uh
did he respond no but i'm sure if i dm
him he'll be available
what is this
um
what is this i i got a dm right now from
someone name
hold on let me read the dm
some of you may know me as
that's right before anything else i'd
say i apologize for using
anyone's content with that let me read
this without
as someone with i already showed it
anyway so
um regarding
so
uh
what
considering this first thing i asked for
permission dude this is kind of extra
you can use our dude um
let me tell him poor guy
dude no
uh it's psa i guess since it needs to be
said
you can use our content
we don't i'm not a intellectual property
monger you can you can upload clips you
can
do whatever you want dude um i'm
confident that
how you know whatever content of us you
use people are gonna find the origin
they're gonna find the source and we're
gonna ultimately benefit so please you
know use whatever you want i have no
objection at all
important than ever and having to work
together having different parties that
work together on a common goal that
brings progress and it's clear whether
it's from property affiliation it's
clear from the economic growth that
china been the only uh
economy that have risen above in
government because they have gotten
under control i'm going to close by um
my statement to talk about why this is
so important and why this this naturally
become more important in 14 in 1949 when
people's republic of china was founded
in 10 months square what is written when
when they raised the first people's
republic of chinese flag it said long
live the great unity of the world's
people long live the people's republic
of china we are in a pursuit of
community of shared future for mankind
for us troops aren't there to create
wars and hurt people displacing 30
million people when they don't have home
and killing 800 000 just since 9 11. for
us since 1947 for more than 40 years
chinese people's liberation army has
never fought a war instead the chinese
military troops is deeply rooted in in
the people have always been part of that
people who are for our interests and
maintaining bonds to share good and bad
times and therefore that's that's why we
passionately believe and propose the
motion that chinese human rights support
human
thank you
thank you kate please it is your turn
well i definitely had less time and
thanks again very impressive i really
like your uh public speaking skills
uh i'll probably be short
and um
as supporting my
team i would say that the us is able to
self-reflect admit weaknesses and
improve
while china grow through cheap labor
right now and this cheap labor is based
on rural kids that are not affected by
fair alcohol
what is the ratio of middle class in
china
compared to the us
how labor unions work in china what is
the longevity of maternity leave and how
to get it in china covet is a moment and
it's a very very strong argument but
it's a one-time situation it's an
emergency situation and it shouldn't be
considered a norm
thank you very much
thank you kate thank you all the
speakers debaters from either side now
we're entering the free debate session
the free debate begins with the
proposition side and every speaker is
allowed to speak but you should bear in
mind that your speech
is limited to no more than 60 seconds
there will be five minutes five minutes
in total allocated to 18.
now the proposition team you may start
i'm going to kick start with the first
question thank you for the third speaker
to mention that the u.s is able to
self-reflect so my question is about
this both china and u.s have faced huge
epidemic before it's nothing new in
china we faced a huge epidemic in sas in
2013 in 2003 when over 300 chinese have
died in 2009 u.s have have faced a
12 000 american death with swine flu so
i want to ask how did u.s over the
decade have learned and self-improve and
why there's still 500 000 deaths right
but again you are talking about pandemic
and epidemic let's look at other
illnesses for example cancer so i want
to understand there's a 500 000 left
life does not matter it's not part of
the human for the u.s side i didn't i
want to clarify that the u.s system is
not viewed it's not prepared for this
overwhelming pandemic no country is well
prepared for this type of pandemic
doctor volcano wait to be fair china
seems like it was pretty well prepared
i mean from where i'm sitting it seemed
like it was prepared ready set that the
u.s health care system is something
overwhelmed the capacity is overwhelmed
by the significance of this this time
then but during the process at least now
we have vaccinations in a short period
of time at least people are getting
vaccinated and people are spoiling those
arteries and improving those conditions
yes it's lucky that china was able to
mobilize millions of people to control
pandemic in a short period come on dude
this is not a good argument it's not
luck
but it's something that chinese systems
are not designed for as well what are
the systematic reforms china has did
after this pandemic to to make sure that
in the future if there's a if a bigger
pandemic happened on how china is going
to deal with still making millions of
people being volunteers and not think
about anything more advanced and more
intelligent right but my question about
self-reflection so i want to understand
what self-reflection have u.s done that
contribute towards how they deal with
over 19. that was my question
u.s has a lot of
medical laboratories who are constantly
researching constantly finding out
potential threats right now even right
now there are reports coming from u.s is
alerting everyone that there's a new
pandemic may be going on in the future
years these are the reforms that the u.s
are currently doing to make sure that
the pandemic will be dealing with my
follow-up question i'm dealt with in my
last is that do you think then through
self-reflection u.s actually did better
in 2019 20 2020 comparing to 2009 with
the swine flu i think usd by this time
but compared with other diseases like
ebola and other types of diseases and
pandemic usa has clearly done a better
job in controlling them
with ebola the us went to west africa
and contained it there so the us is used
to controlling other people outside of
its own borders when it comes to
actually mobilizing its own population
to follow basic norms
i mean it's a civilizational problem
look at what happened in miami just the
other day it's a civilizational problem
there's no ifs or buts about it it's not
because of trump by the way it's
definitely a civilizational issue
in a very early stage so from the first
speaker we just heard that the state
cannot decide what kind of human rights
are there and it sounds like that the us
is reflecting on it maybe it should
decide what kind of human rights it
should protect right isn't that
hypocrisy your name is america and if
the state cannot decide what human
rights are then just like this is what
the first speaker said then why is the
united states intervening other
countries stuff just because they think
that their human rights are not
respected isn't that confliction okay um
you're talking about um united states
invading other countries right but you
also see hong kong the situation in hong
kong with china it's the same situation
um okay guys i mean this is a chinese
media and you know they're not censoring
the hong kong thing so come on you know
it doesn't seem like it's 100 staged i
don't know
how is that the same i think it it may
be it may just be that the the west side
they they're in the university based in
beijing so they may not want to go like
full
super scion mode
um that's my speculation i i doubt it's
actually staged though you know
hey no it's it's it's kind of the same
okay um firstly it is it's definitely
not the same situation i'll be very
brief here number one you mentioned that
how has china learned from 2003 actually
the reason why china was able to
mobilize millions of people at such a
short notice was not an accident was not
a coincidence it was a system that came
in place after the experience of sars
and that system actually did not deliver
100 which is why the few deaths that did
occur also occurred so this is a fact
obviously
my only point is it was not a
coincidence it wasn't an accident it was
a proactive
notice every time people try to critique
china being like imperialistic whatever
it's always stuff that has to do with
china's territorial historical claims
surrounding its own border
and which is historical part of the
historical china before european
colonialism
it's not it's never china having you
know
um
territorial issues with the status of
the government in you know
mozambique or something
government number two you also earlier
mentioned that uh the united states is
intervening in these countries to save
them because these countries are at war
i'm so sorry but let's ask the people of
afghanistan iraq syria even my own
country pakistan were 90 of the deaths
as a result of drone attacks were
civilians innocent civilians and this is
not pakistan's number this is also the
cia's number mostly children so this is
a big problem yes it is different for
the united states to come in countries
and by the way over 30 countries since
2001 alone 369 000 bombs have been
detonated i stated this fact this is
completely different from hong kong
number one let's understand the ground
realities in hong kong but let's also
talk about how would the americans react
if another country like my own country
bombs civilian targets in the united
states that is the comparison and it's
extremely i also think your side has
given very good arguments but how can
you confine the conversation of human
rights within the borders of the united
states this is something that we need to
re-address thank you
i would like to have two responses here
the first is regarding to human rights
because they claim uh that a human right
is defined by the us right but i have
already proved to you why this kind of
political rights is fundamental to human
beings right even if human beings are
ultimately going to make bad results
still it's a principle right that they
should have even if they make bad
results right but secondly they talk
about uh like uh china has more
efficiency in solving all these problems
like uh like pandemic right the firs the
first response is that you should also
consider about the cancer rate right but
second response to that is that to some
extent that is exactly this kind of
efficiency is achieved exactly by
sacrificing human right you are uh
you're you don't want people to actually
actively make choice what people really
want for instance some people just want
more freedom and you are denying these
kind of choices of coming from the
people
okay but we do have to realize that rise
comes with responsibilities no one is
born with any rights rights has to be
earned just because you say you were
born with rest does not really mean so
you have to earn your rights all right
and just now you mentioned maybe some
people wanted freedom but i believe the
majority of people wanted to live they
want to live first before they could
enjoy the freedom if you do not live
there's no freedom at all so that is why
we would like to sacrifice freedom
temporarily to make people safer and
then we could become more freedom yeah
sure uh what we miss here is that as if
no one dies in china and the china solve
all the problems and right now you know
because no one dies in china because
environmental pollution doesn't force to
no new diseases to appear in china if
the cancers rates are not one of the
highest in the world we talk as if there
are no other problems in china but china
solved an issue and right now it can
tell that they can you know uh
be a model to other countries and i feel
like it may be a little bit misleading
propagation side your time is up sorry
only the opposition side can speak now
uh other than that uh well actually i do
agree that i disagree with the us
foreign policy but domestically china is
not doing a great job and we are we kind
of know what i can talk about here but i
don't want to and
everyone just makes their own decision
oh okay this is how i know it's not
staged
what did she just say
damn wait hon that's uh well actually i
do agree that i disagree with the us
foreign policy but domestically china is
not doing a great job and we are we kind
of know what i can talk about here but i
don't want to dude okay
no cg cgtn seems neutral okay this is
okay i know for a fact this is not stage
now i know for a fact it's not stage she
just said
she just took out the yu-gi-oh card and
she was like there's things i want to
talk about but you know i can't talk
about them here
um so she's not a shill you know she's
definitely not a shill no they're not
righteous guys it's not one or the other
just because they're not staging it
doesn't mean that they're taking the
side of the opposition but it seems to
me that the opposition is doing their
best i think she wants to talk about
tiananmen square though or i think she
wants to talk about the situation in
xinjiang one of those two i think those
are like her
her uh
her cards you know she wants to play
those two cards but i think there may be
restrictions in place
um not allowing her to
spread inflammatory shit about xinjiang
separatistic ideas
uh as for tiananmen i'm not 100 sure but
yeah
and
everyone just makes their own decisions
i guess
and conclusions okay time is up guys
thank you thank you for this
free-ranging discussion and debate
now we're entering the final part of
today's debate final focus let's welcome
our fourth debater from each side to
deliver
their concluding remarks beginning this
time with the opposition team please
thank you everyone
let's discuss two things in this video i
think this is general the fact that she
can't talk about kinda is a point for
the west
i don't think so i don't think so i mean
i think um
she can't it's not the reason she can't
talk about it isn't because it would be
such a devastating argument
because china probably has laws against
spreading separatistic propaganda
um and that's generally illegal you know
in general i mean
words matter in china they carry power i
mean no doubt about it words carry power
in china but that also speaks to the
level in which people have power you
know people's words matter i mean in
america your words don't really matter
really what we discussed till now first
about consequence or the outcome that
they chanted so much that china has done
better there's three things they got
discussed firstly is in terms of poverty
but my partner especially my teammates
has mentioned to you poverty alleviation
is just a first step it's something true
it's not it's pretty significant but if
you look at the united states we have a
much bigger and much more viable and
vigorous middle class that were able to
live abundant life they were able to
make choices that they want live a
colorful life and enjoy their life uh
more happily than people who just may
meet their basic lady this is because
u.s has a free market system that enable
anyone who have capabilities to empower
themselves to self-actualize and live a
better life when uh through the system
of free market compared with china a lot
of labor forces when china is due doing
a lot of manufacturing um manufacturing
early stage of open up reform in 1978
are being left over they're unemployed
if you look at northeast china those
three provinces are suffering from
structural employment lack of
lack of birth rates et cetera et cetera
these are the reality that they can't
defend and they can't improve they have
no other choice but to watch them die
out or watch them to be worse off second
thing they mentioned about pandemic i
already clarified to you this is
something no one ever are prepared for
this is something we all aren't prepared
for even for china we still face
shortage of resources in early siege
early stage of pandemic it's lucky that
china can mobilize millions of people as
volunteers to control this pandemic but
till now there's still no structural
reform no technological breakthrough
that makes that that they were able to
you know
not let you millions of volunteers go on
street on daily basis sacrifice their
own personal life but compared with
united states we were already able to
develop i think this is a super weak
argument i think that um
yeah millions and millions of people
being volunteers to combat common
problems is the future i mean with
especially with climate change coming
around the corner i mean
yeah i mean that's there's no way around
the fact that you're gonna need people
on the ground
um
dealing with these crisis who are
volunteers and i yeah
up new uh to develop new solutions to
find out the new potentials rapid fires
as such such thing argue about
intervention how u.s intervening into
our country cause huge damage and
casualty firstly they totally neglect
what i have told you about those country
before you guys ever touched them if
according to china's logic we don't
intervene them then people are leaving
under hell under those dictators people
are leaving other syria governments who
use chemical weapons upon them these are
the things that they think their
inaction is going to lead to on the
united states even though in the process
in the world no one can stop casualty
it's something inevitable but at least
in the process in afghanistan will build
a rain road they connect four major
cities help to rebuild their economy and
help to push out the taliban out of
their territory to a very large extent
for history records we were able to
mobilize democratic for powers in those
uh middle east countries
previously live under dictatorship have
no choice we were able to tell them
there are other ways of leaving and
there are other choices they can make
even though they're not finished even
though okay i wanna
this speaks to something
has cnn
or any other western media ever
platformed pro-china views in the same
way chinese media is right now
platforming pro-western views
i've never seen it
democratic systems are now fully
established in those countries even
though chaotic chaos is still over there
but with united states and its ios help
we were able to make progress and we
were able to track the mistakes we're
making on the way
thank you very much now the proposition
team
so the
opposition side had impeccable logic in
the sense that
they had bought up multiple issues we
are going to summarize our arguments and
detect those issues one by one the first
broad issue that they brought up in the
entirety of the debate is that human
rights are something universal they
existed before we existed and as such
everybody is supposed to be given the
same amount of rights or the same type
of lives we reject the idea of the
universality of human rights because the
universality of human rights does not
come from a higher power but comes from
a particular conception in the united
states in its unique history that all
people are born equal and deserve a
certain set of rights take for example
take one general exam take one
particular example to draw a general
point take freedom of speech
in the united states freedom of speech
is absolute freedom of speech is
enshrined in the constitution and
individuals freedom of speech should not
be infringed even if it affects
collective welfare that is the u.s
approach
now
when it comes to that it's not the
freedom of speech that is being
protected it is the freedom of hate
speech which is being protected now take
other countries for example take china
for example
freedom of speech is enshrined in the
chinese constitution as well they say we
give people the freedom of speech but
their right to freedom of speech ends
when their freedom of speech has broader
real world consequences broader
consequences that affect people way
beyond their
uh way beyond uh no the actions that
they're doing
next we move on
to interventionism and i think that's a
powerful point isn't it you have free
speech
but only where that
speech
[Music]
has real world consequences that are
illegal
that's where they draw the line i mean
i don't that seems pretty persuasive to
me
outcomes of those interventionism
our side has said that a country's
conviction towards human rights does not
stop at their border a country's
conviction their dedication towards
human rights spreads as on the basis of
how they treat everyone so the
opposition said that
uh well if you imagine the
counterfactual you know you remember the
counterfactual if the united states had
not intervened these countries would
have been living in objectively worse
times
let's assume that to be true for a
second assume that to be true for a
second you were living under a
dictatorship in libya you were living
under a dictatorship in syria you were
living under a dictatorship in yemen
in a well-built house
and you had basic resources to support
yourself now you are living not in a
dictatorship but in a country which is
at perpetual war with itself
so you are still living in objectively
worse living conditions in a country
which is at a perpetual war with itself
and
at the same time
you are living with much worse resources
than you had before so to summarize the
opposition's points which are very
similar to
say principles of colonialism it is fine
for us to intervene it is fine for you
to
live objectively first life it is fine
for you to live in hunger it is fine for
you to live
uh in the midst of destruction as long
as we leave you a democracy at the end
because that clearly seems to be the
implication
now i would like to reiterate a very
important from my point from our side is
that economic development which came up
multiple times is a process the united
states objectively is at a much higher
pedestal of economic development than we
are we are not talking about absolutes
of economic development but we are
talking about trajectory how human
rights trends in both the countries are
going and if we are looking at
trajectory and trends we certainly
believe that china's version of human
rights is more broadly in the interest
of the people that the american version
of human rights is
[Music]
all right thank you very much i want to
thank all of our debaters today
excellent statements speeches that was
really cool wait is it done no it's ten
more minutes um as a per chairperson uh
i'm not inclined to intervene but i just
want to throw out some questions out
there to kind of get ball rolling on
some of the questions that have not been
quite touched here um question number
one i want to ask either side
uh and to get your comment your thoughts
on the situation in xinjiang do you
think the treatment of uyghurs oh
that's what she was talking about
wow okay i'm i don't you know
you guys i'm just making assumptions i
don't even know that china's restricting
talking about it based on
anti-separatists i don't even know what
their their policies are
you know
i'm stupid dude i don't even know what
what is and isn't allowed in china
i mean i'm i was just assuming they're
censoring it
it doesn't look like they are
action
of human rights
let's start with the proposition site
i think i'll try to respond to that so
um first of all uh when we look at the
purpose behind what's happening in
xinjiang it is essentially to
curtail the possible radicalization of
people and radicalization of people in
the region is something that countries
bordering china have experienced
including my own country pakistan so
although i think that a policy that is
trying to re-educate people maybe
sometimes against their will can seem as
if it's limiting their freedom to pursue
their own interests but at the same time
when you look at countries like my own
like afghanistan like some central asian
countries when they were exposed to
these mindsets they also let them fester
unfortunately to some extent and as a
result more people have suffered because
of that i know that in pakistan the peak
of security issues was in 2008 and had
we say back in 2003 back in 2002 when we
knew that certain segments of the
society are vulnerable or susceptible if
we had addressed them at that time if we
had some proactive efforts to reach out
to them and make sure that they don't
feel alienated instead they are being
invited to learn new skills and to be
able to in
incorporate in the broader economic
system at large i think the consequences
could have been far better so there are
no perfect solutions in any part of the
world but if we look at countries that
have suffered the consequences um
perhaps they also appreciate that maybe
they need some similar initiatives to
make sure things don't worsen to a
certain extent it's a violation of
freedom of choice because whether or not
those people truly identify themselves
with the so-called radical ideas it's
still unclear i'm saying that it's not
okay for the chinese government to
dictate to say that okay this is the
life you are going to live in that is
radicalization and there's no
consideration of the results of their
experience whatsoever i'm saying that
the process of de-radicalizing xinjiang
is a process of depriving them of the
choices which are which could have been
deliberated better which could have been
discussed better if we include those
people and share their voice and their
thoughts
to a border sense and discuss with the
rest of people in chinese society so so
a couple points first of all uh the
vocational education and training center
established in uh established in
accordance uh with the law in xinjiang
alright guys this was not a stage debate
they came prepared to address everything
okay so
yeah
different from community correction in
in the us uh in uh in the ddp program in
the uk the distance and disengaging
program in the uk or the
the radicalization center in france
they're all uh all of them are useful
measure in all the countries i mentioned
before and positive exploration of how
they prevent counter terrorism and the
09 of the u.n counterterrorism strategy
and one more thing i just want to add is
that through the law based
counter-terrorism you know
keep keeping that in mind the whole
focus on xinjiang which is such a
strategically vital part of the world
remember what zabernau
jerzynski
i don't know how to say his name
whenever remember what he said about
central asia it's the
global chess board
it's the chessboard of the world
um
this focused hyper focus on xinjiang
um by the west by america specifically
super sus i mean super super sauce
radicalization and vocational training
center why did i pronounce it jabber now
brzezinski
it's
big new
big new
why did i say jabber now i'm such a
fucking idiot
that is in xinjiang region we have not
seen a single violent terrorist case in
the past three years so is it zeb now
z big it's z big
z big new z big now oh it's z big new
z big new berzinski
z big new i'm such okay z big new
brzezinski
by so what i'm trying to say is that
with the mean and the end they're both
justified they're both legal and aligned
with the u.n uh and and the uk france et
cetera and it also have an impact in
effect
the big new
speak
speak new what a weird such as tough
name to pronounce wow
of not having any other strikes but just
a very short question why the
terroristic attacks happened before in
xinjiang it's the same reason of why usb
is justified to bomb iraq and and
afghanistan and syria et cetera
yeah but again they're all terrorists
attack in in their own right that is
against the the values and violate human
rights and in outside we want to protect
our own citizens and this we believe
better support it was the response of
xinjiang to
um
the governance like the beijing
government by basically right
because people are dying and we want to
protect our own citizens and this is one
of them and and on the side of that by
the way um this also bring up um the
economy of this enjoyment allowing them
liberty and allowing them to get work
whether it's educating with the common
language of china mandarin or giving
them skills so they have more things to
do other than
following okay guys if i'm
if i'm a us
state department st deep state type of
guy
cia and i'm thinking huh how do we
break china you know just like the
soviet union
remember that the first thing they're
going to be focusing on
before they even focus on
student liberal
protests they're going to be focusing on
national antagonisms because china has
what is it 44 55 something
dozens and dozens of ethnic minorities
within china that's what the us is going
to go for okay
um it's common sense
do you believe that the area with
already established language needed to
learn a new language to improve their
economic situation considering that they
have the largest oil reserves in the
whole country of course not but we're
giving them options of course yeah yeah
okay guys let's move on to our last and
final topic hong kong do you think
what's happening in hong kong especially
uh the latest patriotism requirements
the national security legislation are a
violation of
human rights on the ground in hong kong
so
again um
zone here we go through
very similar philosophical uh
foundations in some areas i'm from india
we have our own share of separatist
movements now
again sometimes
we have the opinion that there are many
things that countries tolerate there are
many things a country should not
tolerate one of them is separatism so if
i take uh you know you deal with
separatism
in
using methods which are applicable to
those particular places
so if you ask me what is happening in
hong kong and whether we are supportive
or not we are supportive of not
supporting separatism no matter what it
takes to control it if a particular
region's political system sort of allows
for it to promote separatism then the
natural response of the government is to
amend the political system in a way that
it does not curtail their civil
liberties to a very large extent but at
the same time solves the underlying
problem of
separatism
anyone wants to say anything here yes i
think it's not okay to call it
separatism for people living in certain
countries they might want to identify
themselves with another country it's not
what's another lifestyle another version
of life that exists somewhere else in
the world they should be granted freedom
to express their thoughts it should be
granted the right to deliberate those
interests through the political system
so that's why this is what hong kongers
initially was asking what about the war
of northern aggression huh
come on guys wait
the u.s had a war of separatism the
south wanted to secede they decided we
want to secede there was a war of
northern aggression
um
now if you tell me you know
well it was about slavery
it's besides the point it was it's about
sovereignty of a people who want to be
separate from the north
you know um
nobody nobody wants to bring that up
before the universal suffrage to decide
on how hong kong nurses should rule them
uh rule themselves this is where i think
it's a clear violation of people's right
to uh right to assemble and as well as
the right to identity and second i think
even in a process where it is true that
a lot of hong kongers and protesters end
up being having really radical and
violence uh pro masses of protesting but
a lot of times it's also not okay for
the police to use much better arm much
better gear and equipment to surprise
people who oftentimes do not have such
strong uh strong power to to fight
against a very powerful country and very
powerful government machine so this is
where i think in two regards there's a
certain proportion a certain extent of
violation of human rights so a quick
rebuttal
particularly to your point of uh police
brutality tell that to that one thousand
one hundred citizens who get killed by
police
in the us so and throughout the whole
entire time for over a year no one were
killed by the police but yet in
washington when it happened in the
capital sixth person will six person die
just within a span of just one week and
and and my response is that 3.1 is that
a resounding no it is not a violation of
human rights and if that's the case the
u.s also violated human rights since u.s
also have national security law so
having national security law alone
doesn't second is that whether we
believe in rule of law or not and us
have continuously recognized hong kong
as a special administrative region of
china that has rule of law in the basic
law the freedom and the rights are
protected freedom of speech freedom of
publication association assembly
possession of demonstration they're all
being protected by the rule of law in
hong kong basic law and last but not
least the national security law only
addressed four different areas that
includes terrorism activity that
includes subversion succession and
collusion with foreign country
particularly the last one i will hope
u.s would also agree this is need to be
protected from foreign powers do you
know any securities movement happening
in the u.s for almost any question you
have about the u.s the answer is always
so my answer would be
national security law in the us so
therefore that is why
wow the national security law in hong
kong as a part of china as well yeah
the answer is always texas
i won't have a very big response on
police brutality right i think it's
probably depend on different contacts
because in us he will just have guns
right so that is probably that police
will seen those as deliver the potential
to kill them that is why a lot of like
please brutality happen right all right
thank you so much we'll have to leave it
there thank you all so very much for our
proposition team as well as the
opposition team um it's a fantastic
debate i don't know who the winner is i
want to ask our viewers who do you think
has been the winner of today's debate uh
china or the u.s which country supports
human rights record more also leave us
your comments thoughts questions about
this debate all right let's check out
what destiny is doing

simple map scribbled on a piece of
crumpled paper a piece of paper okay i
dm'd
he didn't respond
that's okay
oh he might go on train wrecks
all right let's take some uh
i don't think we're gonna have any
callers everybody who watches us is in
our community i think
i do have some more content
one two seven three no no no no no no no
no no no
no
no no no no no no no no
i need to get that song out of my head
honest honest to god
i'm not praying calling nobody go on
train wrecks
maybe destiny will
get us on train wrecks should a gorilla
call in nah it's
okay it was always better when we got
like random haters and shit when we got
like random people but nobody has balls
to do that anymore
i don't think we have any hate watchers
anymore you know
i don't think we have any um
any hate watchers damn
none all of us
are guerrillas here
um
have we purged all the haters no
actually maybe we did let me let me look
at the ban appeals maybe we can review
ban appeals on stream
um
nope there's no unbanned requests
there's no unban requests
yeah we'll get hate watchers by going on
streams
um
yeah it might be the youtube people were
more hate watchers definitely
definitely
um
i ha let's just look at the content we
have lined up now
because i want to check this out
wait this is more cgtn stuff let me see
this poverty alcoholism high suicide
rate
imagine these words being associated
with the united states one of the
world's most prosperous countries this
is what many native americans are
struggling with daily what got these
original masters of the land into such
plight and who should be responsible for
it
in 1830 the indian removal act was
signed into law by u.s president andrew
jackson it authorized a u.s president to
grant lands west of the river
mississippi in exchange for indians and
central lands
it sounded like a negotiation
but it was not
now
you can have
the chinese government's going hard
talking about this shit now
like you want to air our dirty laundry
we'll you know we're we'll go hard too
thanks they're definitely you know you
can keep your sovereign team but you
can't keep your land
but if you keep your land and you bring
on eugenics con if he wants i'll bring
him on right now if he wants
to assimilate and no longer be indian
you will have sovereignty or you have
your land you can't have both
after feudal struggles native americans
were forced to embark on a journey of no
return for the survival of their tribes
countless people starved to death became
ill and were killed along the way
that really was a road of death people
were falling on the side of the road or
being shot or being murdered on the road
and being left there
the removal process was done in a way
that was not efficient in making people
survive
the journey of some traps was so tragic
that today the bloody march is known as
trail of tears
although indian traps were not
physically wiped out culturally the
american government decided to implement
assimilation programs for native
americans by establishing the indian
boarding schools
native american kids were taken to these
schools by the u.s government's bureau
of indian affairs
away from the reservation and away from
their families for years
they were forcefully stripped of their
indian identity and culture
their indigenous languages were
forbidden and their names were replaced
by european names
all ways of life were compelled to be in
line with mainstream american culture
yuda i know who yuda is but the
community doesn't want them
the community said they don't want them
i'm looking at the come on show requests
right now
what based on the discussion we had in
vc you're not worthy of going on the
show
but that's our mod to be fair that was
our mod
they are cringe dude they're they're
also you know
they're not like a
they're old news you know
butcher
a famous quote from an american general
who developed the first of a reservation
indian boarding school revealed
the essential purpose of the u.s
government to do so
killed yeah yudah has been on so many
times probably more than anyone hating
him and save the man
there were reports that students in the
boarding schools were beaten and forced
to do heavy labor
one native american revealed that the
boarding schools she attended wasn't
really about education
they did not learn basic mathematic
concepts or even english grammar
another recalled the brutal beating of a
student by an advisor
he still has nightmares about the severe
punishment and discipline there
native americans have been left behind
in terms of leading standards compared
to other u.s races
in 2017 the percentage of native
americans living in poverty was
estimated at 26
you want to know why i think people are
too scared to come on now
because of our neocock video that i i've
nev dude that would they caught me at
such a bad mood
and they
every all of our it scared the shit out
of all of our haters they were like
[Laughter]
that i think that's what scared them all
off they're like holy shit
i will never
i will never be yelled at like that i'll
cry
compared with 14.6 for the united states
as a whole
native americans have a life expectancy
of five points because before that video
people would talk shit and be like i'll
come on all the time
but after no one
none of our hate watchers ever have the
balls to come on anymore after that five
years lower than all other u.s races
and a higher mortality rate due to
chronic diseases including diabetes
chronic liver diseases and cirrhosis
the youth suicide rate for native
americans is the highest across all
ethnic and racial groups in the united
states
seventeen percent of native americans
attended post-secondary education
compared to sixty percent among the
total u.s population
modern history has deprived them of
their wow
peaceful life and brought them great
trauma
to cure
the collapse of trust in government
might be the first authority problem to
tackle
but
when will their voices be heard
damn
[Music]
oh shit
yeah guys two can play at these games
you know
that's what's going on
four
he still hasn't responded
two can play at these these games you
know two can play at them definitely
um let's look at our
links hold on
i wanted to watch this video
who's that guy you potnick this episode
was made in collaboration with you
gopnik
i wanted to check this out be sure to
check out we'll uh
double speed it
it might be shit might be good we'll see
here video after this
if you were born at any point after the
80s odds are the entirety of your life
experience has been one of crisis four
people my age our form of years were
filled with the consequences of your
activity now our earliest memories
include 911 and the invasion of rock
under all three senses then we have the
2000 housing crash the realization that
the limit change is near a point in the
return the acceleration of suicidal
regulation improvisation which has lower
infrastructure we can fragile the
skyrocketing cost of tuition saddling
young people who are told college was
the only way to succeed with
insurmountable debt and increasingly
worthless degrees we've seen the birth
and rapid rise of the economy relegating
huge portions of the population for
carry and poverty and of course we've
watched our code response become the
worst in the world despite having
advanced knowledge of the danger and
plenty of resources to handle the
situation appropriately for millennials
and younger generations there's no such
thing as the good old days we never
experienced them we'll cover that topic
more early in a future video but in this
week's episode we're going to examine
why the u.s seems to be completely
incapable of handling crises now this
video could easily be over an hour long
the past few decades have seen alarming
acceleration in christmas management and
it would take way too long to cover them
all we're just going to focus on a
handful of them before we get to the big
ones let's start with a very american
problem obesity at first glance you
wouldn't necessarily think the politics
of crisis
the first thing he talks about when he's
talking about the crisis in america is
obesity like
why america can't handle a crisis what
are americans known for
it's the fir right off the bat it's the
first thing numbers in the us things
become a bit more grim as of 2018 42.4
of all american adults were obese that
number increased drastically between
2000 and 2018 shooting up by nearly 12
percent while several visiting nearly
doubled from 4.7 percent
[Music]
i really want to see cgtn start covering
this and be like the amer slowly sneak
this america be like yeah the american
obesity problem is huge
between the ages of 2 and 19 nearly 1 in
5 are obese now obesity doesn't just
mean you're overweight it's a serious
condition it comes with a whole stew of
problems heart disease stroke type 2
diabetes and increases inability to
certain types of cancer not to mention a
lower quality of life and shorter
average lifespan the fact that nearly
half of american adult are obese should
be a huge red flag according to one
study conducted in 2008 the estimated
annual medical cost obviously in the us
was a staggering 147 billion dollars and
judging by the increased prevalent
obesity in the year since we can only
assume that costs aren't dramatically
obesity causes nearly one in five deaths
in the us that's a crisis and it's not
talked about nearly enough now some
people simply tell those suffering
obesity to eat better and that's not
unreasonable but the roots of the crisis
go far beyond individual responsibility
back in the 50s president eisenhower had
heart attack which sparked a scientific
or the cause of obesity which was known
to cause heart disease there were two
main schools of thought one led by
british theologists and nutritionists on
youtube and the other banshees and
americans china also has this problem to
be fair
does it
just you can believe that obviously
he said he'll let me he'll talk to me
tomorrow
damn when did he say that
what the fuck
hold on let me pull it up he'll talk to
me tomorrow
clip
oh
he didn't dm me it's probably my last
night here and then i'm i'll go to sleep
i'll get a load on the docket for
tomorrow
he got it right
here infrared wants to talk to you um
tell them
um
tell them to message me tomorrow i can
do it
almost like i can do it tomorrow no not
tonight i'm so tired tonight
andrew wants to talk to you um fuck
dude he acts like i'm this huge streamer
like and he has to talk to me
i'm literally a nobody on twitch
i'm flattered
dude tomorrow's gonna be sick
yeah tomorrow
tomorrow gotta get the eye on the prize
he thinks you wanna debate him
what i need is a re i need a army of
fact checkers and fact givers because
when he likes like what are you talking
about give me like an article or
something because you know it's all too
up top in my head
um
prepare yeah i'll prepare a little bit
and tomorrow's perfect honestly it's
perfect
tomorrow works really well for me too
but
that's sick
thought it was caused by fat eventually
it became apparent that young was
correct sugar was the culture behind
condition but wait if we identify the
cause all the way back in the 50s why is
the problem so much worse today well the
sugar industry didn't take leave the
scientific findings they found this
information campaigns and lobby the
government watch the paul morin video on
china
i don't really want to
i don't really find paul morin i know no
no no uh
beef no beef no beef just me personally
i don't really find him content i just
don't find him that interesting
you know
it's just me but he's doing successful
he's pretty successful he's more
successful than us i think still right
now so you know i'm not one to judge i'm
just saying me personally i don't really
find him that interesting
initiative maintain their profits this
not only help them current profits yeah
i'll stream 720p
tomorrow 100 i'll stream 720p
um
yeah youtube when we stream with youtube
we get like an extra 100 views than we
have now you know
um
it's not going to be easy building up
the twitch community but let's test it
let's see if we can and if we can then
we'll know it's a good decision if we
can't
um we might you know we might have to
stay
he uses rawls to frame some of his
arguments he's a physicalist
and he's an egoist
why does he call himself a marxist
leninist then
our diet
he's pro markets and capitalism then
what's his problem with
china
oh you're talking about destiny oh i
know about destiny
um
i know about destiny's whole like
consequentialism or whatever
yeah i know a little bit about destiny
i thought you were talking about paul
moore and i was like what
this information campaign that ended up
increasing the amount of sugar in our
foods thereby worsening the very
probably wanted to dissolve keep this
result in mind because we begin to know
this pattern so what have we done to
combat obesity in the decades
institutional studies well not much some
states have tried to implement sugar
taxes but on the whole we haven't even
made a dent in crisis it's only getting
worse in the case of obesity not only
are we able to handle it our capitalist
system caused it a giant industry wants
to keep money so they threw the american
people under the bus but i honestly had
some junk food today some chick-fil-a
some fried chicken
and some fries
and damn dude
that was good as fuck
it was the highlight of my day problem
for over half a century now let's move
on to one of the big crises one that
affects not only the us but the entire
world climate change whether you think
humans are influencing the climate
change or not the data is clear our
climate is changing dramatically and
rapidly sea ice is melting at
unprecedented rates crossing a horizon
ceiling what is that
all right i don't want to talk about
china tomorrow i don't want to talk
about china with destiny
um
i want to talk about
something else
besides china
we're not like uh
weeaboos but the chinese version okay we
respect and admire china we want to
learn from china
but china have their own business and
they have their own problems
and we don't want to be like
you know
up all up in their business is the point
the whole point is that
we can't be up all in their business we
don't we want to get people to stop
being up all in their business you know
do you want to take collins
if people want to come on go on the show
queue and i'll see but we we it's better
if we have random people preferably
haters
level the oceans are becoming more civic
leading to the annihilation of coral
reefs violent weather events become far
more common and we're beginning to see
thousands of storms drops and floods
every few years thousands of species are
a risk of extinction disease okay let me
update the title actually
taking random collins
okay taking random collins
i'm updating the title
see updated it is able to get farther
and faster thanks to longer one seasons
and entire regions are coming unlovable
in early 2020 called the final years of
metro which documented the effects of
sea level rise and more islands i saw
first hand what will happen to the world
coastal regions and islands they're
going underwater their populations will
have to evacuate or be destroyed since
the u.s likes to think itself as the
leader of the world surely where the
forefront of the climate change
indication right well no in fact we're
not even close the united states is one
of the few places on earth where elected
officials openly deny the existence of
climate change the climate doesn't care
whether you're a democrat or republican
or to go to certain internet person
facts don't care about your feelings we
have the facts climate change is
happening so why do our politicians even
the one to acknowledge the crisis refuse
to address the problem you won't be
surprised to learn that once again
corporate interests and in the way in
order to understand the present
situation let's take a trip back to the
late 70s towards the end of the decade
and into the 80s excellent was at the
forefront of climate research not
because they particularly cared about
the planet but because they wanted to
understand the effects of the changing
climate do better position themselves
against a competition in the future for
example when they began drilling in the
oversea in the canadian arctic next on
scientists wonder whether being free co2
emissions would warm the region enough
to make the voyage and extract less
stretches and they're more profitable
with goals like these and mine excellent
began connecting some of the most
throughout the changes to date between
1986 and 1992 the company used and
developed cutting edge models to
understand the effects of co2 and other
greenhouse gases on the climate
accumulated incredibly valuable data to
use the both for c example again next on
science department that should happen
through excel two concentrations double
and they're predicted by 150. the
regions open water season would like
them from two months to three possibly
even five they underestimated how
quickly atmosphere co2 accumulates but
they were exactly correct about the
lighting of the both open water season
and this is just one example their
models also accurately predicted rising
temperatures dramatically weather severe
ice loss droughts floods and all manner
of other thought
jennifer stop
it's not true
you're very wrong
i didn't turn in that paper it's due
two weeks from now
and
yeah i where i haven't even gotten into
the worst part yet
of law school i'm still in the thick of
it
consequences to their actions and all of
this was collected not with the
intention of curbing the fallout but of
understanding how they could best
position themselves to take advantage of
the changing climates as this horse
around climate change so speak nexon
wasn't positioned to do some real good
they had some of the best data available
and it would have made a huge difference
in understanding how best to mitigate
the consequences of climate fallout
instead they chose to do the same thing
sugar industry did they funded
opposition groups launched information
campaigns and buried their own internal
studies so that the public would never
learn what they discovered four decades
exxon and other oil and gas giants made
huge sums of money to suppress the facts
and lobby politicians too so confusion
and distress of essential science it
wasn't until the mid-2000s that next one
finally distanced themselves from some
of the more outspoken clients
can i tank or pill you guys
no i can't i honestly don't have the
information organized or prepared but i
really really want kantbot and ed bergon
to tanker pill you guys but
they are
i consider them higher value
guests than fucking pewdiepie like
they're not you know they're not just
anyone you know
yeah
they're not just gonna come on you know
willy-nilly
but to this day they play a major role
in supporting the effort to do anything
about climate change and they continue
to fund climate denying politicians who
have secure oil and gas profits to the
detriment of the entire human race next
on denies this of course but if you'd
like to see the evidence for yourself
live life links to their internal
documents and to investigate study on
matter and description today thanks to
no small part of the great fossil fuel
companies we are years behind where we
should be when it comes to getting
climate fallout yeah in the u.s we can't
even retire at all so again just like
with the obviously crisis we are not
only capable of solving the problem our
capitalist system created the problem
let's move on to our final crisis around
virus we are now right around the one
year marker when americans really began
to realize just how serious the problem
was in the past year over 500 thousand
americans have died coded we've had more
cases and more deaths than anywhere else
on earth this is despite the fact that
we have most limited resources depend on
overcoming crises like this one if we're
really the greatest country on earth why
has our run of ours responsible one of
if not the worst in the world as oh you
know why we don't have
a lot of hate watchers right now it's
because i disabled the chat for
non-followers so if you want to chat at
all you have to follow us
if you want to chat whatsoever you have
to follow us should i disable that
because i can disable that right now
i just wanted to increase our followers
disable it yeah i'll disable it right
now
followers only chat
off
i'm disabling it
okay now the haters can come
as always to better understand the
situation we need to rewind a bit when
covey first came to the states the
official response as with climate change
was denial it immediately became a
political issue if trump were to take
the necessary measures to ensure the
public safety he believed he would tank
his personal rating and his economic
numbers unsurprisingly both thank you
any progress on having ed berger
no progress dude um
we're still gonna talk to urban maoism
we're gonna have like a whole separate
episode just talking to him
um
but you know i res i've i talked to him
before but you know he's a busy he's a
really busy guy you know
anyway after america started dropping
like flies but the story of our cover
response is not just about politics the
disease outbreak is perhaps the only
thing able to reveal all the little
cracks in the country's armor at the
same time conservative player we didn't
want to go into lockdown because that
was government overreaching the rallying
right take up conservative voters of
course the politicians and wealthy
business smokers didn't really care
about government overreach they just
want to make sure american workers kept
working so the executives could contain
their profits once it became apparent
that we would have to force some kind of
lockdown things started snowball many
american businesses operate on razor
than margins to reduce costs and
maximize profits so when they lost
business they immediately had to lay off
their workers in order for their storm
since american health care site to
employment those millions of workers
suddenly found themselves without
paycheck or access to the medical care
if they became sick you know something
happened off in a pandemic since our
country likes even the best provisions
for the unemployed millions of
households still running out of money
they couldn't pay rent landlords are
some of those people who understand
operations relying on their tenants to
pay off their properties they begin with
their tenants over the next few months
millions of americans can track it and
our bizarre session
wear a mask a tiny simple piece of cloth
that's proven to be effective and
helping prevent this disease our case
numbers exploded becoming the worst in
the world hospitals were overrun we had
to start taking mass graves the people
who could get hospital that would no
longer for the medical bills because
they didn't have insurance hundreds of
thousands of people went into tremendous
debt because the u.s is the only
developed country not have some form of
universal health care while the country
was falling apart democrats and
republicans continue to make the
situation worse republicans railed
against mass mandates and asserted that
the disease was no worse than the flu or
there was a chinese hoax and the
democrats paid liberals to the science
but lied about how well they're handling
their cities outbreaks but the
politicians are not the only ones to
blame the general public must bear some
of the shame as well despite mountains
of data on both dangerous diseases
all right before we have haters we're
gonna have there's someone from
australia wants to talk about the
situation all right let me just say this
is gonna be five to ten minutes so
um
this is gonna be our first
call-in someone from australia
what's up
you hello yeah i could hear you
ah sweet um hi let me on
what's up
not much um
just wanted to i mentioned it in the in
the chat but i wanted to talk about
um
i guess australia a bit uh both it's
sort of like relating to the synthetic
left question and the sort of
civilizational question
um
because it seems that a lot of left here
is really bad at this and
you had a lot of good takes on
sure yeah okay sure for sure
uh yeah but like um
so
the thing that i wanted to discuss was
just uh because i think there are a lot
of similarities between australia and
the us
um
particularly relating to like well both
like a settler country so we could have
a kind of
like kind of not a real kind of
civilization aspect to it
um
i think you put it better but uh
um
there's a sort of a real tendency to
sort of like on the left here to just
have a very anti
like an anti-australia kind of as as a
default
um as opposed to kind of constructing a
new kind of
vision
um
and i suppose i wanted to get your takes
into like
um
i guess how you move forward with that
particularly because the biggest issue
people want to talk about is like
chauvinism basically
um
and yeah
um
in order to know about australia
i would have to know
um
i don't know anything about australia
honestly i just i would have to know
about who are the australian people what
do they do for a living like what is the
mainstay of the i know they they do
extracting minerals for the economy but
like
what do what is the australian peasantry
what do they do for a living you know
the
well
the poorest areas in the
society you're cutting out a little bit
i am
is this better
yeah it's better um
because we started an agricultural
uh economy particularly exporting sheep
with wool sorry i should say um to
england
um that aspect has sort of remained and
so the uh the biggest contradiction it
seems to be is this sort of
um
the land question really at the end of
the day um
and this is this so this was at the
basis of the the founding of trade
um and it is still a huge part of the
economy um and
i think in the country is sort of where
you see a lot of
really interesting political expressions
um
the example i like to give because it's
a contemporary one that a lot of
australians are aware of is the party
that's called the qatar's australia
party
and they hold um i guess you could call
them
uh
economic uh
nationalists
and social conservatives
they support nationalizing these the big
uh coals and woolworths which are just
the big
um
supermarket chains
um which is a very progressive policy
economically speaking
um and and quite a few other i they're
generally referred to as like
protectionists
uh in that sense uh and they're the base
in queensland and queensland as a state
is uh
generally derided in the cities like in
melbourne and sydney i live in melbourne
um
as being very backwards um very very
right-wing
but historically that wasn't the case
historically
um the only communists to ever be
um to parliament was in queensland
um
not in the city either um and it's just
a fun fact really but uh
um yeah there seems to be a general
disconnect between
um the attitudes of people in the
metropoles
and
and the country which is a very very
common theme i think
especially in these settler countries
um so you mentioned so sorry i must have
missed so queensland is agriculture
um well generally all the states have
agricultural bases really um so my
state's victoria so even even still it's
it's based in agriculture
yeah there's still a huge there's like a
big export exactly
um we have we still have protectionist
policies around our banana industry for
instance
um so there's like tariffs and shit um
so we don't take we're not cheap bananas
from like the philippines um
we we have our own um
we have our own uh basis there like i
said like a huge part of the economy is
still like
um it's like agricultural mining and
like service it's like kind of the
biggest kind of thing i would say
in so in queensland just as a broad
brush kind of broad picture what is the
average joe what do they do for a living
what's their profession
um it really depends so in the in the
country you have a lot of people who
are
i guess small farmers
um
and you have people who are
but you have a lot of people who are
working
farms that are especially effectively
owned by
bigger land owners um the majority of
the land
is owned by
um a small number of
big agribusinesses
um
but i don't know if that constitutes the
majority because i
australia has a lot of concentration in
the cities
um
i think probably even more so than
america
um
so i think probably majority are still
in the city but
um in the country you would have people
who are uh in these like uh
both working small lots of land
um and you also have a lot of uh
immigrant labor that gets shipped in
usually from pacific islands pacific
local pacific islands
who
uh they get to
do sort of like uh
how would you describe it like a
they uh pick they do they're like a
piecemeal work
i suppose um but they aren't citizens
they're just uh they're just like
foreign laborers some emotional then i
answered the question
but uh so so i'm kind of getting there's
a lot of
farm workers
it's kind of strange to me because here
in the u.s
the the picture is that they're coal
miners or they're auto industry workers
and then farm work tends to be
exclusively almost exclusive this
stereotype is at least done by
immigrants
yeah i mean most of the manual work i
think is done by
most of it but there are smaller lanes
um which are operated by i guess you
could call them like tease them more
marxist terms like sort of petty
i guess petty bourgeois so there's a big
proportion of small
small farmers who own their own land
basically
effectively
but so but you said their land is owned
by big landowners so
is uh um
yeah like there's a there's a large uh
sort of there's a dynamic where like
they are basically
even though they technically
the land
uh and they do kind of work on it um
they have to sell their products produce
sorry to
um these things like holes on wilbur so
these big
um distributors
um and there's a lot of tension between
them um and there is so that there's two
things going on there's both these uh
smaller farmers who have to sell to
these large monopolies and there's also
this general big landowners which is
separate
um and um and there's sort of tension
between kind of all of them
so okay that it makes sense because here
in the us we have monsanto and they're
they're always getting into conflicts
with small farmers so i would so this
basically seems like there's a they're
restricted in terms of the produce they
can sell this is a source of a lot of
animosity and then i could also take a
leap and guess that the big landowners
are trying to take the small landowners
land basically they're trying to swallow
them up effectively yeah there's a big
there's a sort of a
pressure for that and this and this is
the thing that i've always
had conversations with someone like
indigenous comrades is that the kind of
there's a sort of shared interest
between um sort of the indigenous
population and
the sort of smaller
um
to sort of make to to do land
but that's really not given a lot of
political expression at all
like i would say at all like on the left
especially it's not even talked about
like when it comes to indigenous issues
um
they only focus on cultural stuff
usually and when to
farmers they basically just kind of
write them all off the action
so
both those elements are still there
when unity there but it's not given
expression at all
so
what what um
these big landowners i guess they're big
corporate corporate agriculture
basically right and
so are they associated with the general
australian
establishment then right
um usually yeah there are more there are
essentially like a there's a lot of
european
uh
anglo-anglo-american investment that's
the majority of the
those like there's a lot of
fear-mongering about china
um china bought the port of darwin
um which is a it's a relatively
significant port in the north of the
country
um and this this was this huge like
political like uh upheaval here whenever
china does any investment
and deal because there's a lot of
xenophobia here the huge like that was
actually a founding reason for
federation was the sort of fear of china
um and i think you're probably aware of
like the role that australia has been in
that with america
um in terms of the sort of war against
china
um but this also translates to the
economic act because yeah you have these
um lots of multinational
large like most like the
mining territory
um because a large part of it is
probably in australia there's a lot
large part of it's not actually uh
agrarian
it's sort of uh
i don't know what the word is but like
inhospitable or whatever like
not really but like the people are still
technically living there but it's a lot
of us just using mining and that which
is the majority of land
that's owned largely
uh some of them are australian like bhp
that's in australia sorry uh you um you
cut out who's it owned by
um
sorry
um
one of the biggest mining companies here
is bhp
broken hill petroleum i think it is
um so there are like kind of national
um like australian sort of like national
bourgeois uh big uh landowners but
there's also these uh largely european
anglo-us
uh
companies who earn a lot of land here as
well so as far as proportions is
concerned how much is divided between
chinese american european and english
and so on for example oh
in terms of foreign investment like uh
hong kong has more investment in
australia than china does
which is great
i looked at i looked at the stats and
china does have a decent amount of
investment here but our economic
relationship is primarily just trade um
the reason why australia was able to
avoid a recession
um like we had the last recession we had
before the covert one was
uh in i think 91
and then we had this long period of time
we basically kind of dodged the gfc in a
lot of ways
um
in 2008 um
and a big part of that was to do with
our trading relationship with china
china basically carried
through their trade but in terms of like
kind of investment and ownership they
don't actually own like a ton
um it's it's proportionally way more
the us and uh european which is why
there's so much xenophobia focus on
china's investment because
the majority is you
wait so
so you basically that implies that
the anti-china sentiment is not organic
but is from the top down then i would
guess because if china doesn't own as
much as the rest and it seems like it
could be top down you know
yeah yeah basically i mean effective of
like
like this there's an interesting history
like uh it goes back
well even before federation like uh i
don't know if you've i don't know if you
know anything of the sort of
pre-federation history of australia but
a very sick
uh part of working-class history in
australia is the eureka stockade the
eureka rebellion do you know about that
no i'm not familiar at all um it was in
my state of victoria it was this
basically there was a big gold rush in
the in the 1800s and um you had a lot of
miners
um
coming in both domestically but also
from abroad like a lot of them from
china as well
and you did have this sort of uh you
have this point of real unity um against
the colonial government who were had
some really shitty laws around um
licensing fees and shit and they were
generally and so there was this big
rebellion and then it was a sort of
aligned with the charterest movement
okay um it was sort of like the pre kind
of labor i think marx even wrote about
it at some point um
but um
basically why i'm mentioning this is
because um not long after there was
additional
um
riots like race riots um between these
sort of like uh
settler europeans and chinese
miners
um and i think so it i think it is a one
level top down but there is a kind of
bottom-up
sort of element to it in terms of
chauvinism
um but even then i have no idea how much
of that was stoked from the top back
then we don't really know i would say
probably
but um a large part of it is top is top
down because uh
for a while like in the early 2010
um when our relationship with china was
probably at its best
i think there was a lot less xenophobia
um
but it's it's definitely wrapped up
since then
all right unfortunately it's got to be
the last question because we got to wrap
it up um right to get more people in but
uh last question i have is one thing
that always struck me
that's difficult about australia is that
from a geopolitical perspective it seems
very lonely
um yeah
i wonder what is the destiny of
australia what future can it have
how can australia have a true
sovereignty free from american
and european
being a kind of instrument of american
european interests in the world what
does it mean for there to be an
independent truly independent
australia that
rather than being a co a type of
you know colony of europe
uh geopolitically and
historically and so on
um what do you what do you think about
that how how do how do you think about
that kind of issue
um
this is a really like kind of a big
question here as well
and there's no real easy
but there's a big part of it i think um
you could sort of see roots of it in
the whitlam coup
that occurred in the 70s
um
where uh our prime minister at the time
goff whitlam wanted to basically make us
not align
um which was very significant they
wanted to pull us out of the vietnam
and they kind of wanted to maintain a
bit more
orientation and they just cooed him
um so
in terms of the within the parliamentary
system i don't know if it actually is
possible i think that australia owns
current trajectory is
really
kind of hiltering it's filtering its
horse behind america and i think that's
gonna just kind of destroy the country
event
um if the us continues to decline which
i think it will objectively
i think
australia's in for a pretty bad road um
and i think that really only a kind of
like a new well thing is we're still a
monarchy right so the republic questions
hasn't even been answered yet this is
also what i wanted to talk about in
terms of the civilizational aspect is
that
uh it's always been the labor movement
of republican
and i think a socialist republic is the
only way you can achieve this
um
how we go about that i'm really
sure i mean
the kind of easy answer just revolution
but that's like
concretely
it's a really hard one and it's one that
i think a lot of the left doesn't even
because of the whole like anti-australia
sentiment there's no even like idea as
to like what would a
australian republic actually look like
you know there's not much even
formulation about but it would have to
be on mutual grounds we're in asia so
we'd have to have a relationship
but i think that most australian people
would probably want like not to be a
colony of anyone i don't think that i
don't think china would make
i just think that like there's a lot of
fear that's going to happen it's like a
big fear here and
i don't know we have to
we're trying to work that out ourselves
locally but
it's a really fucking hard question
because
i don't know this is not really an easy
answer beyond just you need to be a
socialist republic so
yeah i i personally don't know enough
about australia i know very little about
i'm sure if i you know had a feel of the
country more and you know was especially
if i if i'd been there before and you
know understood the people there more
i'd i myself would be able to
have a better time trying to understand
that but thank you so much for coming on
the show was really insightful and
really interesting
and that was great
for sure um do you have anything you
want to shout out or
uh yeah um
i guess uh shout out to the australian
communist party um and shout out to the
community union defense league
the kind of orcs that i get involved
with they got a really good line in
terms of
establishing an independent
um kind of away from the kind of faux
left um not tailing the australian labor
party which is completely
tucked
uh and uh yeah so
up them check out their website
ozcp.org.iu
check out the
program
for sure for sure um that's good thank
you so much
thank you
bye
bye
