Hassan Piker.
Going on this vulgar rant,
mocking wounded Lorde that
for losing his eye fighting for freedom.
Have you ever heard someone mention
the Strysand effect
and wondered what they were talking about?
This phenomena is named after
actress Barbara Strysand.
Sometimes, when you try to cover something up,
you end up bringing more attention
to it than if you would just let things be.
Don't condemn Assad, Michael!
What do you call my permission?
The Assemblyman will not denounce Hassan Piper, who said,
America deserve 9-11, dude.
The Assemblyman said in his response, Hassan Piper says,
America deserve 9-11.
There you go.
There you have it.
My friends, we have toppled a political dynasty.
Now to the Michigan Senate race, where
El Sayed is campaigning in Michigan,
appearing on stage at two Michigan campaign rallies.
He's coactively campaigning alongside Piker.
The man who said,
Hezbollah's flag is his favorite, Hezbollah's don't.
Why would you align yourself for a raging and ex-Semite fights?
Who has defended Hamas terrorists?
Calling them the lesser of two this,
Israel's compared to the government,
evils,
lesser of two that's what I find a bridge too far.
When I went up to my good friend,
Chad, and said,
hey, you walk me through some more controversial statements
of a son, Piker.
Even chat TPC went out of its way to soften the edges of the sun and give me context.
Thanks, but no thanks.
Chat TPC.
The Sompikers campaign poison.
Placing yourself on the wrong side of a 90-10 issue is only going to make you look bad.
It's going to be good for me.
It's going to be good for the candidates that I work with.
Turns out it was true.
Abdul Al-Sayed at 27%
Oliver Larger.
Amil Arqueros, everybody.
Nice to meet you.
Welcome to the broadcast.
Thank you for having me.
What's going on, everybody?
I hope everyone's having a fantastic evening, afternoon, pre noon, no matter where you are
in the world, I'm a Sampai Grim, this is Austin, I'm broadcast coming to you live from sunny
California. Lots of just folks were live and alive and I hope all the boys, girls and MBS
are having a fantastic one because today's beautiful day. Today's a wonderful day today.
It's Sunday. That's right. It's Sunday. Fun day folks. It's casual. Look at that. Not
wearing a suit. You guys can fucking rest easy now. No suit. No suit. Just cash. Just casual
vibes. Okay. We're live. We're alive and I hope everyone's having a fantastic one. I
didn't suit up. I didn't boot up, you know, in any case, part of the reason why I started
this morning, when I woke up, you and my dad match office today. Nice. Uh, this morning
I woke up and I was like, maybe I won't stream today. Maybe I won't stream today. And the
reason for why was because I was thinking you know I've been I've been
getting like more and more easily angered and finding myself arguing with
people on the internet when I shouldn't be I shouldn't be doing that right
clearly I've clearly I've been at the end of my rope
usually when that happens I feel like it's the beginning stages of burnout
right and I don't want to get burned out
Okay, I don't want to get burned out at all.
I should probably delete Twitter from my phone, let's be real.
Anyway, Druko, I got your blast off memes.
But in any case, in any case...
Um, these people, like, this is what I mean.
I turn on my Twitter, my Twitter timeline and like, look, first thing I see immediately
Hassan is Biden era. Hassan is Biden era camp. A Biden campaign era of Varsh now is devastating.
They know exactly. They know exactly what pisses me off. They know exactly what makes me tick.
If you deleted Twitter you would miss things like this also Stephen Miller supports the
resettlement of his hairline that's funny shit rail fail to get the first place in your vision
No, I know. We covered it yesterday. Oh, you're a vision. Until they bring back juiced Klein and let him win year over year. I don't care about your vision. Okay, that's the winner in my heart.
But shout out Bulgaria.
One of my favorite, one of my favorite countries.
Okay, shout out to Bulgaria. Thank you for not being hungry.
Okay. Thank you for not being hungry. We must, we must give a shout out to Bulgaria with
regular frequency for not being hungry. Okay. Cause they could have been hungry. You know
what I'm saying? Easily.
She has a Turkish man, of course she does bro, Bulgaria is basically half Turkey.
But yeah, this is part of the broadcast where I tell you about my personal news and you
already know I'm a shut ass loser.
I'm a shut ass loser dog.
A fat chud.
Bulgaria, beautiful women's, beautiful women's.
Beautiful country, beautiful women's.
But yeah, shut ass, loser time, didn't do shit,
went to bed, watched Invincible,
went to bed early, woke up,
cuddled with the little lady,
went to the park, played a little bit of pick up basketball.
One game, won the game, got blocked brutally, had one key, clutch, three pointer that actually
turned the tide of the game because we were trailing behind over and over again.
What is this?
I think we found the only goodest song clip ever because usually these guys are pretty
as sufferable but this is kind of funny as hell.
Okay, hell yeah one one person at a time
Drone Shrys generator at nuclear power plant in the United Arab Emirates
Yeah, we got some news, but we're gonna do some fun stuff as well
If you didn't work at Amazon you would miss things like this
this. Yeah, bro, I saw. Okay, I fucking saw. Dude, what the hell is this, bro? Realistic
mustache human hair, handmade fake beards with invisible soft lace, like that's real.
That's a real thing that they have. They're selling this shit. What is, I mean, I don't
care necessarily like it's kind of cool that they think I'm hot enough to use as a model.
You know hey I'm being used as a product for I'm used as a gender goal you know
for all of your gender affirming needs.
For all of your gender affirming needs, if you want to look like a chud, but think like a woke,
you know, this is the mustache you need. And it's a $12 one too, but this one is a $18 one.
What's up with that? Like, why is that more expensive than mine? Are these guys hotter? Oh,
it's a goatee. This guy is selling a goatee as well, but this guy's mustache alone.
Just a moustache minus thicker is that why?
My girlfriend graduated last night with her bachelor's in social work. She's a Hassanabi headless fucking go
Hell yeah, hell yeah chatter
Congratulations for having a girlfriend
Uh, her graduating is secondary. Number one, you have a girlfriend. So that's good. I guess my mustache for the people is like more people can purchase, uh, the mustache and more people can get that gender affirmation that they desperately need. Um, but yeah, that's all I got really is Sunday, fun day. You already know what's up.
We got a freaking hype train going shout out to the hype train
Okay, uh sunday fun day s and all sunday drama phone reacts major media manufacturer cassaver cuba war

We're gonna do fun at gunpoint. Okay fun at gunpoint. Just you wait
Okay buddy today Poggers. I mean sure I'll do it but like usually okay buddy is
just literally the same guy. It's just one guy posting. Mandatory fun. You know
who else does mandatory fun? Kim Jong-un, okay? And that's precisely what we're
doing as well. We let the subreddit die. Okay, but it's
cope because like I do look at it and I look at it to like restart it, right? But then
nobody ever does anything with it. So what am I supposed to do? Yeah, there's new Iranian
war efforts have restarted. Trump really wants to wage it. Trump really wants to wage that
shit. I just, I think, I don't know what's going on with the whole, but the Xi Jinping
conversation that took place, but it kind of feels like he didn't learn any lessons
from that. I guess the only thing he responds to, the only thing he responds to is, is,
you know, military might kind of feels like it, right?
right.
I haven't had another stroke.
Dude,
I feel the same way about MAGA as I do about Israel.
Okay.
What is this?
I really want to, okay, you want my actual take on asking people if Israel has a right to exist?
I think it's the stupidest fucking question you can ask someone.
I think it's, I think it's extremely, it is, it is a gotcha question and it's so fucking stupid.
Chat, ask me, do I think Israel has the right to exist? No.
Do I think Germany has the right to exist? No.
Do I think Iraq has the right to exist? No.
Do I think India has the right to exist? No.
What the damn this guy hates all the countries is crazy
This guy hates all the countries in a row by the way the reason why I specifically asked that question to her
Was because I wanted her to like I wanted to see what she would say, right?
I wanted to see what like if she could you know hit the hit the Zora line
I mean he already gave us the method, right?
He gave everybody the method you say look
You can you can do two things in that situation regularly like I think the theoretical conversation about like a state's existing is stupid
But yeah, I think I think every country that already exists should have equal rights and equal representation, right?
Israel currently doesn't
Like if you want to say I believe it in Israel's right to existence as a
a secular, solitary state that offers equal rights and representation to all of the citizens,
then yeah, that's a pretty good answer, because that's not what Israel's doing currently,
is it?
You know?
This has been out.
Oh, my God, I'm going to watch it.
I'm going to watch it today.
I'm going to watch Maya today.
Okay.
I think Maya's at the UN today, too.
Who are acting like LA mayor doesn't have a say when cops start tear gasing and bashing
process for skulls for organizing against a fucking genocide.
I know.
Fuck, is the right to exist mean?
He's right.
Fuck, does that mean?
For the record, that's, um, he's right about that.
That question was designed, uh, as a, as a Hasbro question to, to basically, uh, try
to contest all critics of Israel and the sentiment that they have with this, this idea that like
they just want all Jews to die or something. It's just a way to try to trap someone.
Bro sound like I'm hurting him to do my Ted talk. Damn, you're so newspilled. No, I'm
going to do it today. I'm going to do it today.
In any case, let's do it. What I was going to say is I feel the same way about MAGA as
I do about Israel, because it's just like a dying movement in many respects. Obviously,
MAGA is a lot more popular than Israel is, at least in America. But it's always awesome when
the only loyal servants that you can find are genuinely brain dead ogres.
Like who's out here going, who's out here going out the bat for Israel? Oh, John Federman.
They basically keep him in a laboratory and they only release him into the wild after they wind him up
Like he has a crank in his ass and they just like wind it wind it wind it wind it wind it
And then they release and he goes out and he's like
You are anti-Semite. I love Israel Israel number one
Like that that's all he's good for nowadays. He's just good for being a fucking empty vote
And and perhaps one of the last remaining house for a merchants out there. There's just nothing left
The tank is empty, you know
The tank is empty folks
Even Israel's biggest strongest warriors don't chirp as much anymore because they've given up. They know everybody hates them
Yes, I saw the cars for kids shit. Obviously, we're gonna be covering that today. Don't be crazy. Of course, we're gonna cover that
It's a crazy story. It's it's another one of these stories where it's like, how can I explain this story to you?
Without coming across as anti-semitic
Okay, it's just it's another one of those stories where I'm like look I'm gonna tell you what happened here
But I really need I really need you to understand that I'm not like I'm not
This is not a anti-semitic conspiracy. It's just a thing that happened
Okay
Um, yeah, it's funny because it's been on their website, I think, but not in their
jingles.
Yeah.
I wonder why it's not in their jingles.
Yeah.
1-877-CARS-FOR-KIDS, specifically for Jewish kids would be weird, right?
Like that would be, that would probably be weird to add into the, to the jingle, right?
Like, yeah, and not just all Jewish kids, but Orthodox Jewish kids in Lakewood.
wanted to make sure you understand. None of the money is going to any other type of kid.
That's what it is. That's literally this is the court case. Good luck. Good luck.
It's one of those stories where you're like, I, it's one of those stories where you're like,
I really want to explain this thing to you. This unbelievably famous charity has, has been
caught doing false advertising and, and let's just, it's one of those things where it's like,
like, listen, I'm gonna try to hold your hand as I explain the story to you. It's a real,
I'm not gonna say what kind of doctor. Sometimes, sometimes there are groups of people who will,
uh, I don't know, take donations and make it seem like that donation is going all around
the country to aid children. And then, and then here, let's just run the story. Fuck
it.
A chance is R you've heard this jingle, but you may not hear it anymore. Let's go back
to Mike Rogers. Mike, a judge has ruled cars for kids can't keep using their ads. Yeah,
in California we've got the judges ruling right here and it all stems from what they're doing
with the money after you donate a car to them. Now this all stems from a case where a man in
Orange County donated a 2001 Volvo to the organization. He got 250 bucks for it and he said,
according to the judge, he thought that money was going to go to underprivileged kids here in
California. He says he thought that because of the ad.
Yeah, I mean
Yeah, why does cars for kids funnel most of his money to five ish slash yab dollar and a town in New Jersey
Yeah
Why would I donate my car to a kid?
The fuck are they supposed to do with it?
Yeah.
Anyway, let's continue.
I'm just not going to say anything further.
I'm just going to let the story play itself out.
Okay.
Yeah.
Because kids are our future is what the text on the bottom of the ad says, but he was
shocked to find out that the money doesn't go to kids in California at all.
Instead.
One eight seven seven cars for kids.
You might think it's all for kids, 1-877-CARS-FOR-KIDS is just for specific kids, 1-877-CARS-FOR-KIDS
this is just for Jewish kids, 1-877-CARS-FOR-KIDS but not all Jewish kids.
in Lakewood, Justin Lakewood, New Jersey, 1877 cars for kids. Now you might have thought
that this was, don't quit your day job. Yeah, okay. Well, this is my day job.
Goes to cars for kids sister foundation, which is a Jewish organization based in New Jersey
that actually benefits teenagers now this case went to court in orange county
the judge ruled
that will get one eight seven seven seven cars for kids
actually it's not even for jewish kids
and one eight seven seven cars for kids is just four teenagers from legwood
new jersey
this one specific neighborhood
this one specific or the docs neighborhood
and it's not even for kids it's just for teenagers
and uh... you have
uh... anyway
all god
to mulli cars for kids is using the state misleading practices in advertising
here in the state of california which
violates state law
i want to show you some of the testimony that was given in court in this was in
the judge's ruling the c o o testify that the organizations primary purpose is
not to help economically disadvantaged children
The COO in court went on to say programs include matchmaking for young adults and gap year
trips to Israel for 17 and 18 year olds.
That's where the magic.
Wow.
What?
It's.
No.
What?
It's birthright.
It's a eugenics program for Orthodox Jewish teenagers from Lakewood, New Jersey.
to get a free trip to Israel so they can go and meet other Israeli Jewish people and stay in Israel.
What? Stop! You mean to tell me? You mean to tell me that that's what it was all along?
Hmm. I feel mislead. Hmm. Hmm, 40 of the funding is going. And then also admitted that cars
for kids are going to Uber driver years ago, tell me the money went to Jewish teens that
one traveled to Israel. I fully thought this was common knowledge. No, it's just one of
those stories where like, if someone says this to you, you immediately assume like, yeah,
That sounds like an anti-Semitic conspiracy, especially if you hear from like a, like an
Arabunk cab driver, you're probably automatically going, Oh, this guy is actually kind of strange
for telling me this.
And then you dig, you scratch the surface and you dig deep and you're like, Oh my God,
he was right.
That's crazy.
Okay.
I don't know what the fuck this is about, but it is very funny because it's just like
like sits at a grand piano, takes a long contemplative drive from a cigarette, stubs it out in the
Ashry overflowing with butts, cracks knuckles, 1-877 cars for you. Oh, come on, Matt. I'm
I'm not reading that.
Please show the 5-ish music video after please.
Okay, once again, and I need you to understand something for the Fox News Watchers here.
I'm not, I'm not even gonna full screen this so that people know this is URRA's own video.
Okay, I'm not watching a fucking groper. They didn't make this. Okay, this is not like a
groy per edit. Ura made this video themselves. I'm just simply observing it. I, I'm not giving
any commentary on it. Okay. This is the other, this is the other charity that cars for kids
funds. And this is the five ish dance too in Israel. Okay, I'm not, I didn't.
This is a Jewish organization. They made this video. I didn't make it.
I'm not watching a, a, a Groyper who made, I'm just, I'm going to explain it one more time. Okay,
listen, listen, warning, warning, the video that you are about to watch was made by a Jewish
organized it was not made by a grouper let's take a look
I don't think this is funny at all. I think this is a beautiful, it's a beautiful video.
there's nothing humorous about this. This doesn't actually lean into any famous tropes
or anything like that. If you find that to be humorous, you're actually the bad guy
For doing that that's...
Bring your hands and bring them down.
Slide right, slide left, turn around!
Roll your hands from high to low, and that's how the fight...
By the way this is low-key why I say like Israel is one of the most anti-semitic inventions of all time.
Okay, that's just it.
Like everything Israel does sounds so unhinged because it is unhinged. It is so unbelievably anti-semitic
By this, by this, you're very young.
Bring by this to your home.
By this, by this, everyone.
Dance though, by this, you'll have fun.
You can dance though, by this too.
Come and I'll teach you.
I'll teach you!
Why is it an, why is it American currency?
What do you mean?
Because it's American, pro-Israeli, like it's a, it's a, like an Israel funding operation
that is built in America, so it's funded by American dollars from American donors.
We just described to you one of the funding mechanisms.
Cars for Kids is one of the funding mechanisms, very much duping Americans into thinking that
they're funding some sort of like philanthropic organization that aids underprivileged children
all around the country.
No, it's not.
It's just not that.
They take your cars, they sell your cars, they take the money off the cars they sold, and
then they fund five-ish URA, specifically Birthright Trips, so that 18-year-olds from
Lakewood, New Jersey, orthodox teenagers from Lakewood, New Jersey can go to Israel and
like get married to Israeli Jews so they can continue living in Israel and growing the
Israeli Jewish population. Every single, yeah, this is, this is trying to accurately describe
cars for kids without sounding like conspiracy theorists from 1930s Europe.
So, and I'm not joking, Israel, 1877, that one, it is that one. It is what it's the one you're
you're thinking of. The money you gained from the donated cars didn't go to support kid
as much as they went to support. I don't know. Ethno nationalism. Let's just say it's like
it's a real, I'm not going to say what kind of teenagers. Look, look, I know this seems
It's kind of odd to explain like on its face, okay, I know, but it's true.
It's just it's a thing that happened.
Yeah, just fucking Google it, man.
Just Google it.
I can't explain it to you.
Just Google it.
Just Google it on your own.
He described us without like, sounding like Alex fucking Jones.
I... I do not.
I'm a Milmers guy, you gotta grok it.
Oh, by this, by this, everyone, dance, oh, by this, no have fun, by this, by this, you're very all, we by this to you, oh, by this, by this, everyone, dance, oh, by this, no have fun, you can dance, oh, by this too, come and I'll teach you.
Yeah, so, so yeah, a lot of people were donating their cars to 1877 cars for kids, thinking
that it was like a charity that was helping, you know, teenagers in America or kids in
America in poor neighborhoods. And it wasn't, it just wasn't doing that. It was actually
funding URA so they can make wonderful videos like this one, the five-ish dance, five-ish
is one of the other subsidiaries. So how long has it been going on? Oh, for decades. This
has been, I mean, this has kind of been like a known, I was just taking a shower listening
to this. That's not a fucking $5 bill dancing with visible Jewish people. Is it? Oh, no,
That's what, for the listeners that are just tuning in, yes, that's a bunch of Orthodox
Jewish teenagers dancing in Jerusalem and numerous parts of Israel with a $5 bill, with
a human being inside of a $5 bill costing, they chase the $5 bill in the beginning, which,
Once again, it starts off with a $5 bill running away from the teenagers.
I'm just describing what the, for the listeners, for the audio only segment of this community,
I am just explaining to them what is on the screen.
This is a banger, okay.
Why didn't a single person think, hey, maybe we shouldn't have a visibly Jewish people
chasing and hugging a $5 bill what was happening? I don't know. I don't know what was going on.
What is happening at 129?
What do you mean?
I don't know. Is that GD Vance? Actually,
I think it's intentional. There's no way. Yeah. Why is there a guy with a spear? I don't know.
I just, maybe that's just a thing that happens in Israel. I'm not sure about that part. I
don't really know. Anyway, so that's, that's one of the stories that I was going to cover
today here. Let's continue.
No functional programs in California, except for a backpack giveaway that they admitted
is also for marketing purposes and branding purposes.
I want to show you the response from Cars for Kids.
Cars for Kids says, we believe the decision is deeply flawed, ignores the facts, and misapplies
the law.
It's well known that we are a Jewish organization and our website makes it abundantly clear.
Take a look and judge for yourself, then they gave us the link to their website.
Their statement goes on to say, we believe this case was nothing more than a lawyer-driven
attempt to siphon off charitable funds for their own gain yet charitable funds for what
say what the charitable funds are for charitable funds for what
where are the charitable funds going for what
how to view this video is not anti-semitic though no this is this literally is
like, I mean, this is a straight up anti-Semitic conspiracy. It just happens to not be a theory
in this circumstance. Yeah, no, they're literally doing like, you know, Jewish teenagers chasing
a $5 bill. Like they're, they got zero chill. Like they just straight up put their whole,
they put their whole pussy into it. Okay. They were just like, no, it's fucking, this
is what we're doing. What do you mean? That's just what it is.
It is charity fraud, misrepresenting itself in its advertisement to do people into thinking
that they're giving money to like, you know, poor children or whatever, poor kids.
And instead of giving the money to poor kids, it's actually just funding birthright trips
to birthright trips for Orthodox Jewish 17 and 18-year-olds to go to Israel to match them
with Israeli Jews in Israel so they get married and they stay in Israel. That's what it is.
Why did Adam Friedland allow Nick Mullen to make his joke real with his powers? This
actually is, come town has made jokes about this in the past, many, many years prior to
this story gaining more prominence in the national level so you've probably heard hold
on let me finish this expect to win on appeal because the law and the facts are clearly on our
side i want to point something out about the first part of the statement that the judge directly
addresses here you saw in their statement look for yourself go to cars4kids.org but the judge says
people that hear this ad on the radio or tv shouldn't have to go to the website to understand exactly
where the funds are going. The judge says the ads do not make it clear that this is an organization
benefiting Jewish children in New Jersey. And in fact, none of the funds are a very small amount
of the funds are actually benefiting kids here in California. Now, as you heard from Carson
Kids, they plan to appeal, but this is a longstanding issue. And in fact, this issue has
already been taken up in other states as well. And judges in other states have ruled in similar
manner. So we'll see. Yeah. So I mean, you guys have probably seen the ad before, right? We'll
We'll run the ad one more time and you can judge for yourself.
Yeah, that's the ad. Okay. I saw this for the first time on a John Oliver video. Yeah, it's a
you watch it like that. It's, you know, it's, it's ambiguous what the, what the organization,
I mean, it's not even ambiguous. It's just like, uh, you assume that the organization is aiding kids,
kids, helping kids. Also, once again, the marketing team on this, they put a black kid on the
base. So, do with that information, which you will, that's a little bit crazy in and
of itself. But yeah, heard it maybe many times over the almost three decades, it's run on
TV and radio. It's even been mocked in pop culture. But this morning a superior
court judge in California says a cars for kids jingle must stop being broadcast in
the state. It's just very funny because the more it unwives the funnier it gets
where you're like, oh, so you're telling me that this charity is actually not like helping
kids in underserved neighborhoods.
Just, you know, I guess kids in one neighborhood, you're like, wait, okay, so it's one neighborhood
in Lakewood, New Jersey's Orthodox Jewish neighborhood.
Wait, you're telling me it actually doesn't even help all Jewish kids around the country.
Wait, now you're telling me it doesn't even help the Jewish kids that are Orthodox in
Lakewood, New Jersey.
It's just teenagers.
It's just Orthodox teenagers that are ages 16 to 18, and it doesn't even help them.
It just pays for their trip to Israel.
It's just a way to send them to Israel on a birthright-style trip.
What the fuck?
Finding the non-profit has been violating California's false advertising laws.
We have to show they knowingly and intentionally misled the public.
And it's not an easy thing to do, but we did it.
The ruling stems from a lawsuit filed by a Southern California man who says he donated
a car after hearing the ad on the radio.
He believed the proceeds would go to help children in need.
But his attorney says, yeah, help children in need of what?
Not children, teenagers in need of a vacation to Israel, in need of serving a higher purpose
of like uh... populating israel
uh... with with more you know
more of the right ethnic group at no religious group of what's up that's the
need
it's a very important need
that's not where the money has actually been going
they knew what they were doing
the ad is extraordinarily
uh...
impactful the judge ruling cars for kids has misled donors by implying the
funds go to support needy children
But the most of the money actually goes to Orthodox Jewish programs in New York, New Jersey, and the Middle East.
The court finding the money is spent on sending teenagers to Israel and a $16 million building there.
The judge ordering cars for kids to pay the victim $250.
The fair market value for his non-working car in a statement, cars for kids.
By the way, this is a real like, uh, we looked at Russia gate and we scratched the surface and underneath it we found Israel gate moment.
Because this is quite literally a common trope for ethnic enclaves. All they're doing is stealing
American hard earned dollars to fund their country and go back to their own country and fund initiatives
there. And it's like, that's the American dream, baby. That's the American dream, you know?
Well, there it is.
It says we believe this case was nothing more than a lawyer-driven attempt to safe enough
charitable funds for their own gain.
We expect to win on appeal because of all in facts are clearly on our side.
It will make many charities a little concerned that a case like this could be brought and
checking whether their disclosures are adequate.
All right, so Cars For Kids hasn't held June 8th to stop airing the ads in California or get that ruling put on hold
It's also facing a similar federal class action lawsuit alleging much of the same Brianna. All right. Thank you for that
What do you know, I mean the the whole Cars For Kids situation is like is pretty well known like I mean this guy Moss Planet
We did a video on it a year ago.
277 cars for kids.
You probably know the tune if you're someone who has listened to radio at some point in
the past 30 years.
In the most picturesque rendition, the advertisement features a band of children with instruments
that sing their awful, awful song imploring you to donate your car, presumably for their
own sake.
It is a jingle so mentally taxing to the listener that it is like to literal death threats
being sent to the organization.
I was some like, oh these kids are so cute, but then there is like, these kids should
go kill themselves.
kids. My fault cars for kids. It's the most stupidest annoy...
Oh god.
Everybody hates this one so much to the point where most people associate the organization behind it.
The cruel but effective agony of the cars for kids jingle.
The omnipresent malice against their ears that the song is. But a lot of others end up donating their cars to these kids.
enough to keep their ads on the air. The question is, where are these cars going, and how are they for these kids?
To my disappointment, this was not a charity that gave children free vehicles with which to fight each other in a fashion reminiscent of the twisted metal games.
Who said, of course, our kids did?
That would be fucking dope. Imagine, that would be super cool if they were giving like eight-year-olds cars, you know?
Imagine that's the reason why the guy actually sued the charity they were like dude what the fuck
it was too ambiguous I thought I was giving I thought I was giving my Kia Sorento to an
eight-year-old so he could just like you know engage in bumper cars it's fucking bullshit bullshit
the hassle of selling the car by themselves. Despite the pitch of helping children in tax
benefits being a sensibly hard to disagree with, the guy who sues cars for kids because
he thought if he gave his car up, he would get a child in exchange for the vehicle. Wait
a minute, I thought I was giving my car up and then where's my child? Where's my kid?
I thought I'd get a free kid in exchange for a car. Incredibly awful jingle has made cars
for kids a charity everyone is sort of allowed to hate.
What doesn't help with that reputation gained from the jingle is learning what Cars for
Kids actually does with the money they receive.
See, Cars for Kids doesn't actually give to any of the children you would think of
as particularly in need.
That's because the kids in question are being helped not because they are in need of charity,
but because they are part of a religious group.
Right on the Cars for Kids website it clarifies that our all-encompassing program gives Jewish
children and their families to support resources and guidance they need to develop into productive
members of the community. What the website doesn't clarify is that these Jewish kids are almost
exclusively in New Jersey, the city of... No, but it's funny because it doesn't even do that.
Okay, even that's misleading. There are other sister charity organizations,
subsidiary charity organizations, which I'm sure he's going to get into in this video.
But like, there are other subsidiary organizations that actually take those funds and then don't even give it to the children.
Don't even give it to the Jewish kids in Lakewood, New Jersey.
It's just teenagers between ages 16 and 18 in Lakewood, New Jersey who want to go to Israel for a matchmaking opportunity in Israel.
It does do tutoring in summer camps for Orthodox kids in Lakewood, I think at least.
at least, okay. All right, at least there's that.
Lakewood in particular. I was pressed to learn that cars for kids was Jewish at first.
Growing up in Minnesota, I heard that Godforsaken jiggle so many times, but I've never heard about
cars for kids. Quick correction. This is, I know it might seem like it's not a big deal, but teens
are kids. I think it's important to be totally consistent on this because it's dangerous to think
teens aren't children when we're talking about child marriage and or pedophilia. Thank you for
Yeah, except they don't have even teenagers on the fucking ad.
They have little babies on the ad, okay?
They have like barely babies on the ad.
They could have said cars for teens, but they chose kids instead.
Kids for my Jewish friends or saw any indication that any of the people the Jewish community
center I went to were supporting this seemingly omnipresent Jewish charity.
It turns out I wasn't the only one in Minnesota that was confused by this.
An investigation by the Minnesota Attorney General's Office found that cars for kids
spent essentially none of its raised money for Minnesota in the state on anything more
than more ad buys.
First for kids has done a few programs helping the wider community.
This mostly seems to manifest in handing out coats, basketballs, and developing an app
that reminds you not to leave your children in a hot car.
Looking at their website, these programs are either in Newark, New York City, or Philadelphia.
That sounds literally like contingencies, just to avoid whatever kind of legal scrutiny
might come your way where you're just like, wow we did this too, look.
God, so many charities are just absolute dog shit, okay?
So many charities man, what the hell?
A day trip from the headquarters of Crossford Kids in New Jersey.
But this is all, at best, a half-assed attempt to argue on the technicality.
In reality, 90% of the organization's cash is sent directly to another charity, URA,
located in Lakewood, New Jersey and run by Cars for Kids founder, Elia Umitz.
There is functionally no difference between Cars for Kids and URA outside of paperwork and advertising.
As a side note, I wouldn't feel qualified to write about this if I was just talking about URAs.
I'm not a member of the Jewish community, nor have I had any personal interactions with Jewish people
would prompt me to write this. The truth is that URA forfeited the deniability of
being a religious organization, both when it got most of its money from parts
for kids and when it didn't even register as one for tax purposes. URA
doesn't offer its services to Jewish people outside the greater New York and
New Jersey metro area, most of one percent of the money stays in other states
that donate and besides, any charity that is going to subject us to that awful
jingle would already be one under intense legal scrutiny and a just system.
I've actually been passively familiar with URA for a few years now. Like it
unfortunately large number of things in my life.
Urar originally came to my attention
via an episode of the Come Town podcast.
Now the answer is...
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
No!
No!
Hey, that is crazy, bro!
Oh my god!
Oh my god, this is one of those things
where you just don't admit it.
You don't admit it, you just keep that to yourself.
I mean, I know I brought it up as a joke earlier
that this is like a very famous Come Town bit,
but god damn, dude, that's crazy.
show. I'll get to what part of Ura is in that clip specifically, but if you know, you know.
Who has itself a modern Orthodox Jewish charity that services said community? Modern Or-
Putting my protective hat on here, okay? For plausible deniability.
The Orthodox Judaism is defined by maintaining Orthodox traditions while still interacting
with the modern world as it is. This is different from ultra-Orthodox or Haredi Judaism, who's
adhere to self-segregate from broader society to maintain their beliefs as authentically as possible.
In terms of services offered, Uraz seems to focus mainly on surprise.
Ten years ago, people would be shocked to learn that you would listen to a show called
Come Town. That was normal. It was an ongoing bit in my community where I'd always go,
What's Come Town? That sounds kind of strange. And people would be like,
What's people would be like? Oh, so on. Aren't you friends with Nick Mullen,
Adam Friedland and Stavis, Stavros, Alkeas. Cause like people would always, people would
always try to be like, well, you're not woke. Like you're friends with these guys and they
do anti woke comedy. And I was like, what's come town? Like that was the joke.
I'd be like, what, Seaman village? What do you, I don't know what you're talking about.
Cause like all of these fucking, uh, weirdo edge communities would constantly try to like,
uh, present me as this like reactionary because I was friends with the, with the come town
Hi, it's The Younger Generation, although not exclusively.
This bugs makes sense given that Orthodox families have more children on average than
any other Jewish denomination in America, and the community has a general distrust of
public institutions.
They need a lot of cars to pay for these kids, just for this reason that the charity exists
supposedly, as a means to provide the Orthodox community with help raising children through
programs like Day Camp.
I say supposedly because Ura is unique even among shady charities for how strange it is.
high-rise apartments, strip malls, and even mixious development in Jerusalem.
Cars for kids is already going to have some assets that can gently relate to kids at best.
When I looked at the tax returns for the two charities, a lot more than just buildings
started to come up.
I'll give you a rundown of a couple interesting finds.
I love how often the word shock gets used in your commentary and your chat, leading
into the silliness of the dot-collar thing.
No, shocking is like a normal word that people use.
You're just hyper focused on it because you think that it's like a thing that we're fearful
of or something.
It's just a word, man.
One property that URA owns is 985 Clair Drive in Lakewood, New Jersey.
According to tax records, URA acquired this property in 2015.
What's interesting is that the last time 985 Clair Drive was sold on the market was in
2009, according to Redfin.
The property also is an facility.
It's a single family home.
It's not the only single family home owned by URA either.
851 Morris, 624 Vine, 107, and 119 Rutgers all bought in 2008, all but one off the market
since then.
107 was sold in 2022 for 85,000 more than the tax-assessed value.
I don't know what these are being used for, but the fact that Google Street View doesn't
show any signs that these buildings are being converted into a non-residential role makes
me think that there might be more going on.
Another revelation from these forms is how much profit this non-profit makes.
71 Revenue was $77,977,049.
Up 62.5% from the previous year, well expenses of $28,251,610 represented a mere 7% rise.
These numbers aren't unprecedented, look at pretty much any college in the US, but
still raise questions.
More specifically, it makes you wonder what that $34 million in cash is doing just sitting
there.
For that, I have at least a partial answer.
Ura hosts a yearly charity auction in a live stream telephone format.
During this telephone, Ura gives out several prizes, many of them straight up cash, in
a format that they call an auction but is really just a raffle.
Interest perusing these auctions is a character I knew I was going to have to talk about eventually
and filled me with a sense of dread.
I already mentioned it earlier, but it's time to talk about Five-ish.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Fivish is something else.
As alluded to previously,
I had first heard about Fivish
from the then Come Town podcast.
Fivish was being discussed because, well,
this is what Fivish looks like.
Fivish is a giant $5 bill with cartoon eyes
and giant Mickey Mouse-like limbs.
Essentially, he is sort of like the mascot of Urah,
who goes around to their events and serves as what I think
it's supposed to be a sort of comic relief character.
To report a friend of mine who was on that episode,
the aforementioned podcast, this is like if the expendables of anti-semitism came together
to make something to make fun of Jews.
Ura really likes using Fivish.
This isn't a mascot I dug up from years ago or something they tested out in a couple videos,
like, they really fucking love Fivish.
They love Fivish so much that-
Is this a Nazi group?
This is a Jewish charity.
This is-
I mean, I already gave you the fucking warning ahead of time. I was like, this is not like
Groypers didn't come up with this. Okay. How does it feel knowing you've done this for
years and the only legacy you have is that you're the guy who shocked his dog on stream.
It's all you'll be remembered for. Eat a bag of dicks. Yeah, I don't think that's gonna
be the case buddy but thank you thank you for watching they have 5 is a plushie 5 is
on the hat if you keep repeating it to yourself maybe it'll be the case though keep dreaming
dream machine incident 5 ish the 5 ish car or 5 ish mobile really shitty CGI 5 ish 5
five israel on the news five israel being harassed by other orthodox jews
he's filmed and uploaded to the ura channel by the way this is not like
again
this wasn't like a random sighting and then they filmed it and then maybe some
like weirdos got their hands on it like all of this is uploaded to the ura
channel i showed you one of them already
Okay, I showed you one of them already.
I need you to understand.
This is URA, the subsidiary under the cars for kids,
like the funnel for cars for kids is a Jewish charity.
Okay.
You should schedule your appointment for 2.30.
Why can't you be a cute chatter like this, like you are in the fucking, in the, in the
Hitler coalition, you know, dude who's obsessed with as many every now and then.
So no argument made.
I suspect as many gold is live and he's probably reacting to a video of mine, which is why this
guy came in here to say this, right?
Anyway, let's continue.
Yeah.
Mass arrests any day now, buddy.
You're in the thumbnail?
Yeah
Mr. Yep, mr. I never talk mr. I never as men never talks about Hassan Hassan only talks about as many gold boom
Always in the thumbnail, baby
always
Every damn day
Shorga sport most interesting shmorg is one that is 38 minutes long and involves the apprehension military of Panama
So the video starts, and after a short intro we see three boys walk out of their bullet-ridden
school onto the sidewalk.
Two of the boys stop as the third boy asks where they're going.
They say,
We're going to visit Fibish!
As all three boys blink their porcelain doll eyes to mimic human behaviors, a cars for
kids branded taxi drives past and the scene moves on to another intro, except this one
transitions into a theme song, an incredibly long theme song.
In fact, I did some napkin math to find out if this theme song was a little under smorgasbdals
for context that is longer than the 1 minute 36 second intro of the syndicated version
of Twin Peaks.
If you include the cold intro, it is about as long as the intro to Band of Brothers, and
only 10 seconds shorter than the longest intro in TV language history, which is the cut intro
to Twin Peaks.
Look, it's a long intro, best in peace, David Blaine.
The three boys finally arrive at Fivish's house, where they inform him that they have
anxiety if they won't be able to attend the Yeshiva religious school that they want.
It doesn't seem to be an inciting incident really, or a stated reason that these boys
are nervous.
Nevertheless, Fivish regales them with the story of, when my friends and I were really
scared.
Now, even though this sounds like Fivish is about to tell these whiny kids about his time
in prison, that is unfortunately not the direction it goes.
Fivish is dropped off at the airport, does his cast skills material like-
Wait! Wait! Oh, wait! You forgot that you're changed!
Change? What do you mean changed? I need a change? Well, I mean, everybody could use
a little bit of cheese and not save that one of my- I mean, how much do I really need to
change? No!
You-
That one enters the building. Then, 5-inch is across it by this overbearing TSA worker,
who then waves them through. The worker then starts talking with another, more anthropomorphic
5-ish who is bringing a kosher mule on the plane but is told it looks too much like a bomb.
They then strike up a conversation about what Yeshiva they went to for some reason.
What makes this so bizarre is for lack of a better term it's sort of unskilled racism.
Let me try to explain. So the TSA worker speaks with some kind of accent. I say some kind because
it's not clear what stereotype this man is supposed to represent. He wears a yamaka which
would imply he's Jewish but he also punctuates his senses with Arabic terms like habibi.
Why look like a school this accent is so thick that it could either be is no this is really no that's a Israeli
That is a Israeli Arab Jew, but that's what the
It's not that confusing when you are a little bit more in tune with what's going on
You're so lame and so is your entire family's just sitting in your chair and react to bullshit John Porges sculling
Yeah
Asmongol's chest down the line, chatter.
Famously. I'm uh, I'm known famously for sitting around and reacting to shit and never going outside.
Really? Or some kind of approximation of Arabic?
I say this because there's another Fivish sketch showing an Arab terrorist going through security without issue.
I think this man is supposed to be an overbearing Arab who costs Fivish who wants to bring a kosher meal on.
But then they forgot and decided to add in some dialogue that makes him seem as Relate.
After this, the 5-ish's get on their flight with El Al, the largest Israeli airliner,
which then promptly crashes into the ocean because of engine breakage.
I'm not for it, it's for everyone.
I know I should have done a ton of skyline this morning.
I know this is funny because they clearly did not consult El Al for this,
as most airlines do not like to be shown crashing into the ocean.
In fact, this is sort of the main thing that airlines don't want people to think of when
it comes to them.
It then cuts to the French-British island colony of Bingsalou, which has the Panamanian
flag for some reason.
Has ever really explained why the colony is both French and British?
Maybe it's a Quebec situation?
The island is ruled by some sort of 17th century colonial merchant who I'll call the King
and an Xbox 360 version of the Prince from Frozen named Franco.
The king is being entertained by scuba divers who are hitting a ball that literally just
has the default texture on it.
No, I'm not kidding, that's just the default texture from Gary's mod.
Yes, yes, that was wonderful.
Let me see you slam that volleyball into the pool again!
In with the balls!
And go all the way to the nose!
That is disgusting!
There's sort of an implication that the King's getting a sexual thrill out of this, even though
it just looks like an early CGI tech demo.
I also have to mention that Franco seems to have a tribal tattoo on his jacket for some
reason.
We never really get to see his back fully, so I can't be entirely certain, but it's
a-
Oh my god, he does!
Why does he have a tribal tattoo in the back of his jacket?
It's like someone decided to add a sick ass mid-2000s tribal tat for literally no reason.
Anyway, the 5-ish plane crashes into the ocean with the thematically consistent but horrifically tragic 5 survivors.
There are actually people on the plane, by the way, real humans that, wait, is that GoAnimate?
No, it's really fucking god, they use GoAnimate assets on this thing.
I don't even know how that's easier, honestly, they didn't animate them, they just love the GoAnimate assets so much that they need them to be there.
I just had to mention that, I'm sorry.
Anyway, the 5-ish's wash up on the beach, sing a song, and get reprimanded.
Woo!
Yeah!
The next most interesting thing to happen is when Lord Farquaad shows up.
A lot of exposition occurs, there's a song yada yada yada.
The 5-ish congregation finds themselves trapped at the royal palace,
where, after a musical number
Wait a minute, let me explain!
What the fuck is going on? I thought this was about a charity chatter. I don't know how to explain this to you
But it's still about the charity
Yeah
No, this is I mean, you know what this reminds me of this reminds me of that like which one was the cult that did an anime
Like that made that anime the the Japanese cult fun times happy fun times or whatever
Basically, this is the the orthodox Jewish version of that
where
Remember, we started today by talking about cars for kids. Cars for kids, oh yeah, om
shin krio, shin rikyo, shin rikyo, om shin rikyo. So basically, here's what happened.
Okay, I'm going to start from the beginning just to help people catch up. Cars for kids
is uh... uh... a charity with a very famous jingle one eight seven seven cars
for kids
cars for kids it's been sued all around the country in different state courts
uh... for misleading
uh... people who have you know donated their cars
uh... into believing that uh... they're doing their count cars to help children
uh... in you know underserved neighborhoods or whatever
turns out cars for kids actually takes all those funds
and puts ninety two percent of those funds
into a jewish charity called urah
uh... most of the money is spent not even on children some of it is spent
specifically on
uh... jewish children
in lakewood new jersey but most of the money
actually goes to urah
is spent on taking
jewish orthodox kids
who are between ages sixteen eighteen on birthright trips
for matchmaking purposes
to israel
this is one of the creative materials that URA has designed. I don't know for what reason,
I don't know why they thought that this was a good way to promote the charity or anything like that.
But basically, URA has a character called Pfeibisch. It's a $5 bill. It's an anthropomorphic
$5 bill that runs around all over the state of Israel. And there's a bunch of like Orthodox
Jewish kids in the state of Israel that like chase them around. It feels fake, but it's not,
and they're just, I mean it's a money funneling operation. It sounds like an unbelievably
anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, except it's just a thing that's been happening, and since more
people are aware of it now, I just wanted to give you a little bit more background into it.
With a song, hit it!
We only clamped our work, it fills a fish, it's not too difficult to call.
Why, crab cakes are octopus, instead of soup with lots of balls.
Get beckoned by a man named Moisha, a quote, Jew, just like you.
This confirms that Fivish is a full part of the religion and that Ura wants children to know that money can indeed become Jewish.
Moisha then tells them they don't like Jews here,
here, which you think is a prejudice that would fall away after a while, but apparently
is very deeply held. There also isn't any mention by any other islander made about Jews, which
makes me think that Moisha is just a guy who-
Okay, I'm gonna be honest with you, Moisha kind of looks like a Nazi. I don't know why
they made- I don't know why they made him dressed like that. But, okay, so, for those
of you just tuning in now, okay, so we created, I explained to you Fivish, which is the character
than URA created. It's a Jewish charity, a Jewish organization. And yeah, he looks like
Heter, he told, but that's a totally separate point. These Jewish $5 bills, these Orthodox
Jewish $5 bills are flying to Israel and then the plane crashes. Okay. And they land on
an island. Now they're on the island and there's a, there's a guy on the island who's like,
my name is Moisha. I'm Jewish, just like you. And everybody on this island hates the Jews.
Okay, this is supposed to be something that you know, I guess kids are watching and for some reason
I don't know.
There also isn't any mention by any other islander made about Jews
Which makes me think that Moisha is just a guy who sucks and it's just like for different reasons and just attributes it to
anti-semitism. I also wanted to mention that Moisha's outfit is weirdly specific. Not in its details
Those are fairly scant, but the fact that it seems to include an Austro-Hungarian military ski cap for some reason
I found very bizarre. I don't note this because it's particularly important, but rather because it raises questions as to where they got his
model from. Of all the models on all the asset stores, why it was an Austrian mountaineer circa 1915 that was chosen,
I have no idea. Wine said, did they not choose any other kind of generic soldier?
And why did they choose something that I only recognized because I played way too many Hearts of Iron Formats?
Anyway, the 5-ish is 5-ish I,
Anyway, try to escape before being captured and taken back to chicken wire fences, which
is another thing about the supposedly lost colony I found strangely reminiscent of the
industrial nature of the Holocaust.
But just as the 5 vishers are going to be put on trial, a helicopter piloted by Forrest,
another 5 vishers, zooms down to announce the rest in exchange, the islanders are offered
a large chest of coins that the king is told are apparently edible?
They're very good guys. You like them. Why does he sound like that?
He does not. I'm sorry. Moisha. Yes. Jewish name. Okay. Doesn't look Jewish at all. Kind of looks
like he might hate the Jews and also on top of that is dressed up in a very weird garb and doesn't
sound in any way, shape or form. Like he, this is, this is a villain. This is the most anti-semitic
animation I've ever seen. If you laugh, you're anti-semitic and I'll unfollow. I'm not laughing.
I'm dead serious about this. I'm, none of this is weird to me. None of this is,
none of this is strange in any way, shape or form. I think this is normal and good.
I don't know.
That then finally concludes our Fiverr's story in the animated realm, but it continues
into the aforementioned auction.
Every year we were asked to host a charity auction that is really just a raffle.
It's almost comically corrupt in terms of prizes offered to the point where it's basically
just gambling.
Just as I watched the 5-ish TV show, I also watched the 5-ish Charity from 2023 and recorded
what happened during it.
I've been to a couple of charity auctions myself.
My memory consists mainly of watching people bid on gift baskets, memorabilia, or gift
cards to sums of maybe $300 at the most.
They were social events, either for a public school or a local non-profit.
Where donors came to Minka, Ura also does charity auctions, but the way they organize these
events is in another galaxy compared to my experience and the experience of many others.
I'm just going to cover the auction in Telethon for now, but the online auction is both the
easiest and hardest to explain.
So it's not unheard of to pick up an item at a charity auction for below market rate.
That's sometimes the incentive.
For example, you buy a rare baseball card that got donated to a charity auction.
There's some upsides to the benefiting institution in terms of taxes and ease of processing.
Ura takes it to a completely new level.
Ura auctions themselves don't work like auctions at all.
Like I said, they're basically a sweepstakes or raffle, where donors buy tickets that are
then randomly drawn.
The other main difference is the prizes.
Where others have donated items with somewhat subjective market price, Ura cherry auctions
seem to primarily have a different kind of prize.
Cash.
Not collectible buffalo nickels, not a $2 bill signed by Richard Nixon.
Large sums of money that Ura gives to its winner of the 49 potential prizes, 15 of them
were just money. That doesn't include the other prizes, many of which were just a separate
move from being a transfer of money. Here's a list of the auction items that you can win for as
little as $5 that are just straight up, undeniably, money. In fact, one host points out that-
I don't think this is funny at all, and I'm- I'm visibly shaking my head.
One winner spent $500 on tickets and made their money back 100 times over.
Here's a short list of 15 prizes.
$25,000 cash.
$7,000 Visa gift card.
5-ish cash, which is $5,555.
$100,000 bonus.
Daily cash.
$50 a day for 6 months for 9,000.
He's dying.
5-ish is dying.
How is this funny?
The anthropomorphic 5-dollar 5-ish is dying.
They are literally burying it under dollar bills.
Oh, you think that's funny?
I don't.
He's drowning in money.
They're killing him.
He's suffocating.
Dollar Mastercard.
Weekly each.
$100 a week for one year, or $5,200.
$36,000.
It looks like he's literally gasping for air as he's being crowd crushed.
Oh, save me!
That check, which is $6,130.
portfolio.
Princese $10,000
$18,000 cash Pick $50,000 allows you to pick one of five hidden cards each worth $5,50,
$500, $5,000 or $50,000 yearly cash $1,000 every year for 10 years for a total of $10,000
Instant $50,000 for $50,000 10 of the 50 prizes are some form of guarantee
and help paying for a specific bill or expense with a listed value.
items from that selection include rent and mortgage, an Amazon spree, and quote living
expenses.
Six prizes are a trip to Israel, either for a holiday or just covering the ticket price
of a dozen people.
Eleven prizes are what I would consider to be desirable for most people, even outside
the community URAS serves.
These include items such as a Toyota Sienna, a fine silver, or a vacation anywhere.
I also have to mention what is by far the strangest item in the last list on that count,
which is $8,500 that goes towards a bunker or safe room on your property.
Well, myself a Gentile, I never felt like having a secured bunker in your backyard is
something that would be more appealing to the Jewish people I know.
I mean, if I got offered a bunker for $5, would I turn it down?
The answer doesn't have much to do with my ethnicity or religion, and really it's just
more a question of how cool I think having a bunker would be.
The final seven items are the only one I could find that were related to the local Orthodox
community.
include things like a Sepertora and a gear of $200 and...
No, no, I'm not, I'm not.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Every week, towards shops.
No.
One prize among these was the so-called Loser's Prize,
which is a limited-run sweatshirt,
which features 5-ish, surrounded by, I'm a winner,
URA 2023 auction.
Another part of the live stream that I wanted to talk about
was an advertisement for another URA organization
that shows up halfway through.
And by being an URA organization,
it is inherently one that is funded by cars for kids.
Revitzins, I think I'm pronouncing that right,
is a site that facilitates the traditional
Orthodox Jewish shiduk, where young singles
are matched with each other by members of the community.
For a religious group that is strictly divided
along gender lines and does not evangelize itself,
the shiduk is a method for maintaining
this tight social cohesion.
In essence, the shiduk system is one of the only
institutional forms of arranged marriage
still in the United States.
The shiduk is also a model that is in crisis.
Creatively named the shit a crisis many in the orthodox community fear that there is a decline in the number of marriages overall
Which is being spearheaded by a drop in shit of marriages looking into this the conclusion that I saw reached by observers
Is that a high dropout rate of the religion picking is would you turn down a free bunker? Never
I'm pro bunker and verhoja style. Okay
Yes
URA and VARHOJA were bonker maxing.
By parents and the generally dehumanizing nature of having your partner pick for you
as technology tears down more social barriers are contributing to this crisis.
Men are also less willing to marry, which combines with the higher male tendency for
relieving orthodox Judaism to make women in the shittish system much more susceptible
to being objectified both by potential partners and often the woman's own parents trying to
sell her in a buyer's market.
This is marketed towards American Jews. No. Not even. This is just marketed towards American
Jews in an Orthodox community in Lakewood, New Jersey. Okay. I mean, there are plenty
of American Jews in this chat. Ask them if they've either ever heard of this or if this
Jews would be in any way, shape or form appealing to them. And you will very quickly find out.
The answer is, fuck no. Why would this, why would, why would it like a random, like think
about the American Jews that have been on my brags. Like think about presenting this
to Felix Biedermann or Noah Colwin to be like, Hey, would this be appealing for you?
you like random bunker in Tel Aviv and they'd be like, no. I mean, this would be appealing
to Felix, but in a very different way. He would appreciate this probably in a totally
different way.
Or streamline and support of shithead processed to parents. The promo played during the telethon
and it is made clear that the purpose of revitsons is...
Weird that you didn't bring up Brace. Yes, there's a reason why I didn't bring up Brace
because Brace is... Brace already has a bunker.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just gonna re-enforce the Sheduck system with their services.
Despite a bright background that brings to mind online dating services and romantic music,
Revitzins is part of a deeply conservative tradition.
As I previously mentioned, the Sheduck system does not favor women.
More than just the demographic issues that make women outnumber men in the community,
women who are married using the Sheduck system are being placed firmly inside a deeply patriarchal
community structure.
The most vague example of this fact is that Orthodox Jewish women are generally not allowed
to seek a divorce.
Only their husband can initiate that process.
This can result in creative solutions where gangs of Orthodox men are hired on behalf
of Orthodox women unsatisfied with their marriages, who kidnap and convince the husbands who
are refusing this divorce.
The practice was the subject of the third episode of The Sopranos.
Because I see them, I see them but I don't believe them.
I mean, that's not funny.
That's not a good joke.
It's very, mmm, very bad.
What's he want, this titleman?
What was the divorce for his daughter?
You know about this ship?
Ron, trust me, you don't want the business with these people.
He said it's 25 large and if we can get him this, this year, we'll get it.
You know, there's an old saying amongst Jews, when the Jew gets a divorce, even the older shits tears.
Unfortunately, most Orthodox women aren't able to hire roving gangs or the Soprano crime
fan.
While studies on the topic in American Orthodox Jewish communities are rare, it's found that
the Orthodox community in Israel had high rates of domestic abuse, far higher than the
average.
A study from the University of Puget Sound noted the relationship between adherence and
violence.
Domestic violence is harder to escape for more religious women, because of their restricted
adherence to the halacha.
Despite Urab being more modern than other strains of Orthodox Judaism, the leadership
still maintains a deeply conservative view towards marriage.
This is where I also have to give you guys an additional piece of information that many
of you are familiar with.
You've been watching for long enough, but oftentimes comes across as strange.
Now you would think that Orthodox Judaism is the original strand of Judaism that it's
been around for as long as Judaism has been around for.
But it's actually the opposite.
Judaism has been around for thousands of years, whereas Orthodox Judaism has only been around
for a couple hundred years, almost 200 at this point.
It was invented in Eastern Europe, and it's actually the most modern version of Judaism.
Yeah, it's basically Wahhabism.
Yes, it's Wahhabism for Jews, pretty much.
And the reason why, yeah, it's younger than the United States of America, which is a relatively young country.
And the reason why, if you were wondering why Orthodox Judaism has all of these different things that you wear and stuff like that,
that doesn't really fit in places where a lot of Orthodox Jews now live,
live, uh, Boca Raton, uh, Los Angeles, New York. You're like, what the fuck? Why are you wearing
so many different clothes that, that don't really fit the, the, the climate where you live or,
you know, Israel? Um, that's because it was invented in Eastern Europe. It makes a lot of
sense when you realize that it was invented in Eastern Europe as a newer version that
is more fundamentalist of the OG line of Judaism, when you're like, why are you wearing a bare
skin hat? It's 100 degrees in fucking Tel Aviv. That's because it's, you know, it's,
It makes sense for Ukraine, Eastern Europe, in general, doesn't necessarily make sense
for many of the places that Orthodox Jews now live in.
Hi, men, that's what I'm talking about.
Stop, bro, you don't understand.
It's a great question about the roles of men and women in this statement summarized by
Uba Anz.
The man makes the decisions because he has the Torah knowledge to back him up.
this old Boston Jewish marriage will put it as most wives like a husband as a leader because
a husband who is- You've never had sex because you don't have one of those hats. Yes, I think
the hats are actually kind of dope. I feel like there's no way for me to acquire one without
people considering me to be anti-semitic. So I'm just not going to,
I'm just not going to get one, but I do want one. It shows to the rest of the group that you have
had sex. It's a marriage hat. For those of you who don't know, if you see those big hats,
that implies that the person has been married. I think it's cool that you're like, yeah, this
This is my pussy getter hat. Like I am hatless and will remain hatless. Um, but yeah, that's
what it means. So like it's one of those situations where you like in those hats is your most
Gentile option. They smell really bad in the summer. If you don't take care of it properly,
I just, I think it's cool. It looks cool. I that and the Tefillin, both of those things
look cool. The Tefillin makes you look like like a Muslim Spartan, okay? They do the the Sparta,
they do the Sparta rap and then it has a little kaba at the top.
You know, that's just my own personal preference. Anyway, let's continue.
Okay, and Tyra, and he studies Tyra and he knows what the laws of the Tyra are.
Usually he knows more than the wife knows.
Statements like this point to a phenomenon called heredization, where modern orthodox
communities have become increasingly observant of traditional practices.
The growth has been on top of a high base level of poverty as well, that by some counts is equal
to that of Detroit. The orthodox communities known for higher poverty rates while also helping
one another very frequently, but this cannot sustain a growing community. Luckily, URA exists
to promote the interests of Lakewood residents. By comparing the Lakewood City budget for 2021
with URA's operating expenses in the same year, by math show that URA spends the equivalent of
23.5% of the city budget on its own project. URA runs a rather sophisticated operation for giving
to its community. The Salvation Army Worldwide Office brands roughly 71% of its operating expenses
to other organizations, and the Jewish community, for the foundation of Greater West Mitra, New
Jersey, gives almost 85% of its operating expenses away. URA only gives 12.7% of its operating expenses
away. Over 13 million of the 28 million in 2021 operating expenses went to salaries, miscellaneous
payroll obligations, and office expenses. But given the aforementioned insular nature of URA,
these are almost definitely all being paid to Lakewood residents. Paying so many salaries
creates a sort of auroboros of local investment that has coincided with the aforementioned boom
that Lakewood has been experiencing in recent years. URA bolsters the Shiva system of private
religious schools by making them a more appealing option for parents, either by making them cheaper
or by otherwise enhancing their facilities.
Meanwhile, the Yeshiva push has put the Lakewood School District into a financial death spiral.
By using legal loopholes, Yeshivas have been able to demand bus services for 30,000 private
school students from a service that only educates around 5,000 public school students.
This is a cost that a large organization like URA could feasibly take on, maybe by providing,
I don't know, cars for these kids.
All this, the telethon, the shit of the buses, 5-ish, is being funded by the dollars of mostly
unaware people across the country donating to Cards for Kids.
That is my main problem with UR-R. It's the deception.
If you took all of what I just described and told me was being plundered by some billionaire
donor, my tune would change, not because I'm the proof of it now anymore on a personal
level, but because the externalities are being contained to one person.
But given the number of times you've heard that Cards for Kids jingle, we all know it's
not contained to one person.
There are also plenty of Christian charities that misuse government funds and deceive the
public.
While there are so many of the ideas of a pastor that's a private jet has become a joke for
half the country, in a religious reality for a significant minority. When compared to the
sheer scale of fraud and the Jesus Christ that has been committed in this country,
Ura's sense of billion seemed laughable.
What are you gonna do the American way, baby?
It is. It really is.
What the fuck, Bill?
Put it on your pile with all your other fucking bill?
Probably, yeah.
But those charities receive plenty of scrutiny for their actions,
even if it doesn't work all the time.
So as long as the start of that infamous jingle is prompting tens of thousands across the country to punch the power buttons on their car radios as fast as they can, URA remains everybody's problem.
Hey, thanks for watching the video. This was something that I adapted.
That was a really good video. Respect. Dude even dropped.
Dude, only in the United States of America in the year 2026 of our holy lord, you have a guy who does an effort post on a Jewish charity,
doesn't hit any like anti-Semitism notes whatsoever, issues a content warning in between and previously
promotes come town at the same time. This is what, this is why I think like Woke One just
simply did not fucking work, okay? This is why Woke One didn't work. And we got, we need some new,
we need some better. Woke 2.0 needs to factor all of the unique nature of progressive politics into it.
But think about it, he literally issues a content warning for domestic abuse, okay?
He issues a trigger warning, a content warning for domestic abuse.
And he's a come town enjoyer.
This is what woke 2.0 looks like this is what won't always was
This juxtaposition exists. Okay
Anyway, I really like it a
A bit of casual Islamophobia. Oh, you're showing the...
Step through the detector, please. I need boarding pass and ticket available.
Who I cannot wait to go to Eretz Yisrael for Hanukkah and visit my cousins, the Shekels.
Alright, enjoy your flight.
Like, that's very clearly an Orthodox Jewish man that they put, like, what they want to
make seem like a mafia on his head.
Oh, the TSA is, the TSA is so woke, they let Arab Muslims in.
They let Arab Muslims in to do terrorism into Israel all the time.
Wait is this the guy who does Moss Planet?
Oh creator of the Moss Planet YouTube channel, opposition researcher styled ape.
Okay.
Nice.
Yeah, it shouts out.
New 5-ish and cars for kids in danger, this video is part 2 in an ongoing series on URA.
We watch part 1, we can watch part 2 now too.
Oh, he made it with Means TV, yeah this guy's dope.
Makes sense.
Makes sense that he's a come boy.
It says that he is both a cumboy and also at the same time a choppo head and now has
his own podcast too.
On August 12, 2020, Devsing fired to show the main dining room and kitchen at the zone,
The Zone Girls Division.
As I covered in my last video, Cars For Kids is basically a front for the religious charity
URA.
It takes donated cars from mostly unsuspecting vehicle owners and either sells or scraps
them to pay for real estate investments, 5-ish, and sometimes summer camps for kids but only
if they're orthodox Jews.

Lee this makes your organization a massive conduit for shady deals and lather spending
Ura operates two facilities in the Catsfields Mountains of New York collectively referred to as the zone
These are actually old ski resorts that were bought and converted into summer camps by Ura.
I said two facilities because they are not gender segregated by cabins, but by geography.
As the boys camp is located in Delaware County, New York,
and the girls camp is located eight miles down the road in Scohair County.
This puts it more than an hour away from the closest airport,
and virtually inaccessible by any method other than personal car or chartered bus.
And there are plenty of reasons why you wouldn't want to come here.
Well, the Catskills is no doubt beautiful.
It is not just these mountains that makes the zone notable.
Instead, it is the scandals inside the zone itself that are a justification for looking closer.
Where to even start? Probably with safety hazards. See, there comes a certain set of upsides and
downsides when you build a summer camp in an old ski resort. Upsides include more sophisticated
housing, extensive facilities, and a potential to commune with a ghost that will help you get your
tight five down. Downsides include older buildings that are more prone to issues,
untrained counselors that can mishandle equipment, and that ghost is actually just the results of
the gas leak by the aforementioned downsides.
Dear mom and dad, I've been at sleepaway camp for almost three weeks and I'm getting very
scared.
Welcome to Sleep Awake here.
Someone who's watching you.
Someone who's waiting for you.
Some one who needs to scare you to death.
Sleep Awake here.
You won't be coming home.
We have to say 5-ish.
URA had to evacuate its boys' zone camp because of a carbon monoxide leak in one of its dorm
buildings.
This wasn't a lapse in protocol that caused the state bureaucracy to seize on a long-awaited
opportunity.
The gas leak was only reported because the entire dorm building spent one morning in
various states of disorientation, including several campers passing out.
Fifty-three campers and staff members had to be taken to the hospital after inhaling
potentially lethal quantities of carbon monoxide.
So Hare County's Director of Emergency Services said that the campers were still very lucky
as if the leak had happened in the middle of the night, there could have been a worse
outcome.
I'll let you figure out what that worse outcome would be on your own.
Even worse, this wasn't the only near-fatal incident experienced by campers in the zone
in the past five-ish years.
In July of 2020, the girls' zone had to be evacuated because of a kitchen fire that burned
down the dining hall.
This was during the height of the COVID-19 restrictions where camps like the zone were
fighting tooth and nail to shirk any social distancing orders through technicalities.
It was also not the first time URA had faced criticism for not following fire safety codes.
This is because it was back in 2014 that the city of Jefferson and Scohair County, New
York filed a lawsuit against URA for allegedly having multiple fire and building codes violations.
Even as co-

The restrictions were winding down. The Girls' Zone was not done with negligent fire safety
practices. In February of 2020, three of the buildings at the Girls' Zone were destroyed
in the fire that nearly spread to a 500 gallon propane tank.
In case you're curious, here's what a 500 gallon propane tank exploding looks like.
Thankfully this happened during the winter when the kids weren't at the camp, but there
is a pattern neglect at Ura's camps that is undeniable.
We have no real signs that this is going to change, and the idea of anyone sending their
kids to this inferno makes my stomach turn personally.
The loophole that was utilized by the zone to remain open during the pandemic involved
a reclassification of summer camps as temporary residences, although if the parent state was
inconsistent at best.
This practice is not limited to the zone, but it seems like they're the ones who have
put the most children in danger because of it.
According to a report by Schohar County's Public Health Director Dr. Amy Gildemeister,
both sorts of unaccompanied children were being dropped off at the zone in the 2020 summer
season.
Seriously, the Director of Communications for the Zone, who has the same role at Cars
for Kids, Wendy Kearwan, defended the operation by stating that minor staff members went home
at the end of the night and that the campers were accompanied by their parents.
If you remember how far away from any major population center this is, the story doesn't
really add up.
A drive from Gilboa, a nearby city in upstate New York, to New York City itself, the closest
major metropolitan area, take for these counselors who have worked at the zone while following
COVID-19 restrictions, many of them would have to spend roughly one-third of any given
day just shuttling two in from the zone.
Most of these kids are not from upstate New York.
In fact, many of them are pretty notably from New Jersey, which is even further away, so
But the idea that this wasn't an overnight camp is pretty laughable at some point.
This is where Cars for Kids is sending your money, by the way.
These are the titular kids that are being helped by your car donations.
It seems like the main way that these children are being helped is by giving them the opportunity
to spend their summer in these camps that are constantly filling their buildings with
gases and burning everything down because of negligence.
I'd argued that a better use of this money for children's welfare would be to just burn
it or dump it into the middle of the ocean because it seems like the way that it's being
spent right now is actively endangering children.
And that is not why people are donating their money to cars for kids.
It's not even why Orthodox Jews are supporting this organization in the first place.
And humans aren't the only ones suffering at the zone either.
See, the zone is also home to a variety of different animals.
The biggest draw seems to be horses, which feature prominently in promotional material
as a draw to the camp.
Unfortunately, it seems that these horses are not treated all that well.
According to a statement by Rosemary Farm Sanctuary that links to a Facebook post outlining
the details, these horses were recovered from the zone.
The animals were found starved, exhausted, and brained by hot irons.
It was only when one of the horses died from being overworked that the person leasing the
horses to the camp got involved.
Ultimately, it was only because of this intervention that the abuse even came to light in the first
place.
Thankfully, these horses have found new home with the help of Rosemary Farm and Equine Rescue
resource, but the fact that it took one death of these forces for any investigation to occur
is troubling to say the least.
It may also be the cause of an abnormally high number of exotic bird sightings around
Stanford, New York where the zone is located.
While looking for any anecdotes that might lead me to new stories in the Facebook group
Stanford, New York neighbors, I noticed that a few people seem to have spotted some kind
of exotic bird walking around their yards.
I'm not saying it's necessarily an escheebie of the zone, but given all the information
we have on the treatment of animals there, it's not impossible.
There's also where I'd like to mention that the zone has uploaded a video to their YouTube channel that shows what appears to be
Turkey and a peacock
Having some kind of disagreement in one of the buildings. It looks like there's some cock fight. That's crazy. I
Went to a Jewish day camp like this and the head rabbi accused me of 14 15 year old girl of having nude photos on my flip phone

exactly one week after the dining hall went up in flames we were out a new
problem related to the girls own camp but before I get into the details of that
I wanted no I needed to return to an old friend
Thank God. Thank God. Oh my God. I was worried. I was worried about Fivish being endangered
and it has been brought to my attention that it's alive. Okay. That's good.
The Fivish lore is far more extensive than I previously thought and it now includes Fivish
corresponding with Barack Obama. We're under attack with the WMD's weapons of
mass depression and this is only getting worse and this is getting very serious
and I think the only one who can help is Fivish. And way more anti-Indian racism.
Obama cares to keep being Delta, Kershpok kids and kosher delight. I understand you
maybe having an issue. Be quick because we have been overwhelming in talks of

Unsophisticated racism you should say oh

That's how you know, though, these guys are all, uh, Lakewood, because they've just never
been around Persian Jews because they would at least know a little bit about, like, Iranian
culture if this was, uh, Tehran Jalis.
You know what I mean?
If this was, if they had any, like, uh, connection to the Persian Jewish community in Tehran
Jalis, they would know better.
They wouldn't say, oh, shawarma because they're trying to do, this is Iran, right?
they would go, Oh, Kubi day. That's, that's a, you know, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Benjamin Netanyahu. I love Kubi day. I will do terror. That's what the, that's what the
guy would be saying. Law you're being racist now. I mean, this is a distinction is an important
distinction to be, don't make me put the fucking doctor's coat back on. Okay. This is the
Dr. Jihad. I have a PhD in racism. I'm telling you, okay, unlike Dr. Abdul El Sayed, I actually
had to work for my degrees, okay? I have a doctorate in Jihad and a PhD in racism. And as a PhD
in racism, I know all of the different kinds of ways of being racist. And these guys are not being,
these guys are not being racist in the right way, okay?
I cared about this in the slightest, but I will note the Iranian scientist is dressed
in a traditional plob and keffiya in a way that is reminiscent of Saudi and Gulf state
formal wear.
Iranian officials for the most part wear western style suits and occasionally turbans.
Obviously, the creators of this cartoon are pretty racist and aren't ashamed of it, but
it also just feels so lazy to not even put the effort in to make this guy look like-
See, this guy called it out too.
This is also the other part of this.
They made them, yeah, they made them like a, like a Gulf, um, like Qatari or Saudi or,
uh, you know, they just, they, they did not factor in that this is like, this is supposed
to be an Iranian nuclear facility.
If you're in an Iranian nuclear facility, this is a Saudi guy, right?
Like it's not supposed to be a Saudi guy.
Classic mistake.
Dr. Jihad would never make this mistake.
Iranian cleric or something like that. Surely there's plenty of source material to at least
make a 3D model that vaguely resembles like an ugly version of the Ayatollah. It's like
if you're making a racist political cartoon about Zoran Mamdani but you kept depicting
him wearing a fez like it doesn't really hit hard and all we can tell-
It doesn't because he's an enemy of Turks. Everyone knows. Zoran Kwame Mamdani, enemy
of the Turk, famously. Just so you guys know, I tried. I tried. I tried to petition him.
I tried to lobby him. I even brought it up beforehand. I wanted him to pick up where
Eric Adams, Odomolu, left off our Albanian Turk, Eric Adams. He was taken out and unfortunately
Uh, Zohran Kwame Mamdani is an enemy of the Turk.
Do you own a Fez? And am I racist for asking? Yes, I do own a Fez.
Uh, and yes, you are racist for asking.
Oh, is that you're racist? Anyway, would it surprise you that less than 90 seconds in,
this cartoon for children is implying that Iran is manufacturing nuclear weapons?
As we are on the final stages of developing something that let's just say,
rhymes with Schmugler's weapons.
This is especially ironic because Israel, the only Middle Eastern country to actually
possess nuclear weapons that will indiscriminately bomb your population centers if it thinks
you might hypothetically be building one, receives plenty of gapier students whose tuition
is paid for by URA.
There's a golden land that's promised to our fathers where the streets are stoned and
we kiss the ground.
This is God.
We kiss our daughters.
This is God's country.
Wait, that's AI.
A lot of the, a lot of the previous, a lot of the previous ones, that, that wasn't add.
This is AI, okay?
We brave.
Oh my God, they did Southern country slop, but for Israel, oh my God.
Oh my God, they did country music for Israel.
God, what is happening?
I don't know if it's any better though, to be honest, because I've seen Israeli music.
And let me tell you, this might be, this might be, you know, just slightly better than that, which is, you know, still a war crime,
but maybe not as bad as a war crime, as like regular homegrown Israeli techno music.
After some more reminders of why a rogue state in the Middle East that has nukes must be
quickly sanctioned and invaded, the actual grand plan is revealed.
It's a bomb that makes people all over the world sad and grumpy, which is somewhat elaborated
on in a pretty god-awful musical number.
I don't even mean god-awful in the way that a musical number might be over the top or
at least be annoyingly catchy, it just sucks.
It sounds like someone playing Jafar at Disneyland making up a song to buy time as he desperately waits for Jasmine to finish with her smoke break.
The arm mold is bad.
He looks like stale 2000.
No, not stale 2000.
He's going to do another musical number about how livestream fails must restore his moderation.
I also have to say that if you told me to come up with an anti-submitted conspiracy theory on the spot,
I don't know if I could beat a bomb that makes you need to go to therapy. That's almost worse than 5-ish in terms of blatant anti-semitism
That's crazy. That's all nonsense
It's nothing but a racket to the Jews
Speaking of which 5 ish wakes up in a panic. He's late for shul when he gets there
He encounters a group of three men who I believe have the same face model as the old man from the movie up
These old men are complaining about how awful a bunch of things in their lives are
But given the fact that old people love doing that, Fivish doesn't seem to think much of it.
Fivish then walks around the synagogue and sees his middle school age friends from the last episode
in all their PlayStation 2 rendered glory.
They walk into a classroom and inquire about why everyone is seemingly so grumpy.
After this is a scene showing a human child giving a cupcake to her Fivish teacher.
Did you feel better if I gave you my cupcake that I bring for snacks?
Oh, thank you. How did you know I needed that?
Why are there so many random dollar bills that are also humans and orthodox Jews in Israel what?
No one has described this to me. I need to understand why are some humans and some dollar bills five dollar bills in particular
Why why are the five dollar bills orthodox?
Fuck I can't do this anymore. I need I need this question to be answered right now. Why?
Why is-
Huh.

of Gapchick Consulting, which, given who works there, should be called the AppDollar Consulting
because it's staffed by Fivishes.
One of them, Shalomomekul, is taking a call from someone asking what they should do if
they run for president, to which he is told, get a motorcade before taking another call,
this time for Barack Obama.
Yom Kippur logic. I'm behind on stream, but they're five bucks because of the Yiddish male name
Five ish pronounce the same from the Greek name Phoebus wait really I
Can't tell if you're fucking with me or not also this is a new Obama and
And it seems like this Obama has one ear that's larger than the other.
Who asks him what to do about this attack by a WMD, a weapon of mass depression?
Well you see, we're under attack with WMD's, weapons of mass depression, and this is only
getting worse, and this is getting very serious, and I think the only one who's gonna help
is Fivish.
Of course.
Of course.
Fivish.
Yeah.
Fivish's phone number from Mechel, and is able to contact him on his private line.
The president informs Fivish that he and his associates are the only ones in the world
not affected by the WMDs, and that he needs to find a solution.
Oh, is this Mr. Fivish?
Um, there's no Fivish here.
My name is Fivish!
Uh, I'm sorry, Mr. Fivish.
Oh, what?
Uh, Mr. President?
Obama then breaks down in tears on the phone with Fivish.
Um, something that I think is lost here is the fact that they're not depicting Obama
as a virulent Jew hater, which obviously a lot of people in the pro-Israel community,
uh, absolutely believe.
So in a weird way, this is like kind of woke unless this back and forth, uh, is taking
place or unless this video was made not the video depicting or not the video
you know talking about five ish but maybe the original video was made before
the JCPOA was finalized
because like post 2015 it was a non-starter Obama became the number
one op
in the is i miss uh... community
obama was considered the biggest enemy of uh... jewish people
so this conversation would normally not take place in the ways that it is is
like
at this conversation between obama and five which would be like obama
saying like i'm gonna kill you that kind of thing you know i mean like he
would
you would be like
Like if this was depicted after JCPOA, Obama would be depicted as a Jew-hater.
See, we need you, your country needs you, and the world needs you, it's, uh...
I think this whole sequence might be a parody of the alleged relationship revealed in Jeffrey Epstein's emails,
where Obama called Alan Dershowitz for help in what to do with Israel.
The difference is that while Obama is still played by himself,
the walking anti-semitic caricature that has relations with young children is now played by Fivish.
Cut to a parking lot in Lakewood, New Jersey, where the theme of Top Gun plays and a trio of fighter jets flies above.
My special aviation interest has to point out that the three shots that these jets are in each use a distinctly different model of jet for some reason,
versus an F-22 that an F-16.
Then finally, the general lands his F-35 in the parking lot to talk with Phaivish and his associates.
Phaivish insists that they need to get to India as soon as possible before seemingly ditching the fighters together on a chartered private jet.
Happy as can be, there's code in everything and that is why we sing, let's make everybody happy as can be
It's all in your head now, even if you're sad you will blow it away
What?
Get all your sadness, happiness is here to stay, make everybody happy as can be
After getting to India, they head to the largest call center in the world so they can spread
SIMCHA Hebrew.
That's how they depicted India?
Oh my god, bro.
Brother.
First of all, if I'm in any way, shape, or form connected to Israel, I'm probably not
talking about how much trash there is in other countries.
Because have you ever seen a group Google Street View of Tel Aviv even with the exception
of the parts that you always see, like some of the most developed parts, Israel looks
exactly like India, like in the worst, the worst parts of India that people oftentimes show kind of
looks like Israel in many, in many respects. So weird to do that to another country.
Like there are a couple touristy areas in Israel that you'll see oftentimes, you know,
the boardwalk on the beach where everyone's like, oh, we are here in Israel. We just left
the bomb shelter. And now we are doing gay sex at the beach. Only democracy in the Middle East.
Like that type of shit. Like that's the backdrop that you see is always the same exact fucking
boardwalk. But the rest of fucking Israel is, you know, just as underserved and broken down as
most other countries in the developing world, okay?
Would you believe URRA has a video series about a light against the
dark of communism? Yes, I do believe that.
In a society that you're not afraid to go with the Yarmulcan you had, or say to people
that you're Jewish, and you don't feel you're dangerous, or you're not ashamed to say that.
in Moscow, 1970.
Okay, we're not doing this right now.
In a transfer's cartoon?
Do you need a problem B2D, sir?
You see, I was listening to the radio, and I heard a commercial that said if I wanted
to be happy, I needed a brand new V-Box.
And the new operating system freezes excessively, and it seems it's making me more sad than
I should be.
Please fix it now.
Kind sir, I need to ascertain that the system's electrical connection is firmly connected with your local electrical port on the wall of your house
Five-ish lands in LA where he tries and fails to get advice from his guitar playing friend
Five-ish son declares that happiness can only come from Hashem and tells the general to fly to Miami
Hold on to your Yamakas and wipe those frowns off your faces
Help doesn't come from traveling to all these exotic places. It comes from Hashem
We need to keep Arbitrachon. General, take us to Miami.
Here he needs what I would best describe as a fivish version of Psy Abelman.
Fivish Abelman tells Fivish that to bring happiness back, they need to make a variety of Shabba's foods.
What follows is a musical number featuring those foods singing a parody of Do You Like Waffles?
Which, listen, if I'm being honest, doesn't look like food that would instantly or even slowly cheer me up.
up wait lahmah jeen is that lahmah jeen dude do people in israel is that
wait is that actually
Do Israelis try to own Lahmacun too?
Now they're crossing a line?
Bro, they have been crossing all lines.
What are you talking about?
I didn't know they also tried to say that they invented Lahmacun.
I'd never heard about that.
How did they sell it? Do they sell it as Israeli pizza?
Uh, traditional Israeli foods.
I can't speak for the rest of the world, but it's not particularly appetizing.
Cut to Lakewood, where the villains go to a kosher grocery store.
Here, the cashier, after getting sad from the saddest WMD, opines that
I'm always so happy. I only make four dollars an hour? What? That's the minimum wage?
I want to go home to my mom in Guatemala.
Ooh, Lala!
Bavarian's entourage then enter the store and come to the conclusion that the only way to feel happiness is through the teachings of the Torah.
Dr. Wiley and his roommate overhear this and, like any reasonable person, start figuring out how to get past the security of the MetLife Stadium.
I do love that none of them have even remotely an Iranian accent.
They're supposed to be like evil Iranian doctor geniuses who are trying to build a weapon
of mass destruction called weapon of mass depression here.
And one of them is German and the other one is Stavros for some reason.
I don't know why.
Like, there's not a single person that they even tried to make look or sound like a Ranihan.
You can slip me past the security and get me to the podium.
I am confident I can promote the virtues of being miserable.
Cut to a spiritual gathering is Dr. Wiley's fellow confirmed bachelor has gotten on stage
dressed like a rabbi and is preaching that the Torah teaches us all to be sad.
Thankfully, one of the fiveish rabbis, whose name I don't even remember at this point,
goes up and rips his fake beard off.
You are not-
This- this ra- ramai!
That's what he is, he's a ramai! Look!
Look, he's a ramai! He's a terrorist!
Dr. Wiley's gay homosexual bummer gives gay sex with infux and kisses and doesn't forget the balls to and taps it on the tongue,
exclaims that we have to get outta here, and then the scene basically ends.
If happiness is prevailing, let's go!
Can't we just stay for the smorgasbord?
I hear something, let's get this strawberry, this will die for!
So I just have five to stop to run WMD program.
I don't know why Israel felt the need to get those bunker busters if it was this easy.
Maybe five-ish was on island time when they needed him most.
It's certainly an interesting story. I didn't think they had that kind of clout to get Obama on
for a speaking role, but alas, it is not the most consequential thing URA gets up to.
Now, I want to ask you, what power is a city? Because it depends on a lot of factors.
Why is Fivish doing full frontal nudity? Everyone else, insertion clothes?
Please explain. I can't explain anything.
I can't explain anything to you about why Fivish does the things that he does.
You just have to experience it, okay? Not everything needs a reaction.
Sometimes you just sit back and enjoy the show.
location, government policies, connection to other cities, and a lot of times it's just plain luck.
For the city of Lakewood, New Jersey, it's a combination of all three. The town where the
Cards for Kids organization is based has been experiencing explosive growth over the past
few decades after this combination. Despite being located in what used to be a small logging
town, Lakewood has managed to use its proximity to New York City in a manner that funnel students
into its Jewish educational institutions. Beth Merdash Gehova, BMG, is the second largest
his shefa in the world, and its expansion turned Lakewood into a college town of sorts.
You got exposed?
But how does the vice-versa city grow around a college when that college isn't really
improving the productive capacity of its graduates?
It's true.
I am the only person that Nanjou knows who watches SNL because he needs more cool friends,
because watching SNL is cool.
graduates
See, no matter how cynical you are about the role of higher education, there is that minimum
the conceit that society is a whole value of a college degree.
BMG does not fit neatly into that system, at least not intentionally.
You know how a lot of tech venture capitalists went to Stanford but they didn't even necessarily
study business or computer science even?
Or how people like Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard and unfortunately inspired a lot
of guys you went to high school with to do the same thing without having the means to
get into Harvard in the first place?
This is because elite colleges will naturally attract the kinds of people that are willing
and able to secretly roll.
And by bringing them together to co-mingle, they can find what they need before even graduating,
be it appratigial connections to investors, highly motivating employees on the ground
floor like Peter Thiel, or to develop your woman-jetting skills, like with Mark Zuckerberg.
Think of this process where entrepreneurs find each other in the same terms that you
think of the accumulation of nourishing DDT into the bloodstream of majestic bald eagle.
This is called bioaccumulation.
When DDT is sprayed on a marsh, its concentration in the water is very low.
DDT is picked up by the plankton living.
Minimum wage in Israel is $12.13 USD an hour and life is much cheaper there too.
The social systems they create at work poverty rate is basically the same as USA.
Stop farming anti-semitism.
That's farming anti-semitism?
Wow you mean to tell me that the number one welfare state on the planet actually has better
social safety nets than we do here in the United States of America, and we cover their
entire fucking defense industry and office industry, that who's farming anti-Semitism
between you and I?
I simply stated, Israeli chatter, that Israel is not as modernized or as urbanized as the
way people present it.
That's all I said.
seemingly it touched a nerve where you're like, no, you don't understand Israel actually doing very well. Okay.
Fuck him. I don't care about them.
Fix the USA.
Yeah, this is the same chatter that was crying about migration yesterday.
Also none of which I said is is even remotely anti-semitic.
In the marsh, and it accumulates in their tissues.
All fish that eat the plankton get a higher dose of DDT, because of the accumulation resulting
from eating many plankton during their lifespan.
Larger fish that eat many smaller fish receive an even higher dose of DDT.
Birds that eat fish, such as this heron, will receive a still higher dose, because they
eat many fish throughout their lives.
This increased concentration of toxic substances in the bodies of animals higher on the food
chain is called biological magnification or amplification.
BMG is a very different curriculum from those elite colleges like Stanford and Harvard,
but not that different in how its students behave.
What I mean here is that BMG is still an elite institution and it seems to attract students
accordingly.
Much like Harvard and Stanford, many of these students do not graduate.
Much like at those elite universities, it does not really matter.
possibly due to the very traditional nature of orthodox Judaism, the students that go
through BMG tend to overwhelmingly favor real estate when it comes to choosing a career
path.
An article in the Real Estate News site, The Real Deal, details how Lakewood's real
estate has been supercharged in recent years.
Using the arrest of Eli Puritz, a 29-year-old Yeshiva graduate who has recently been sentenced
to prison for real estate fraud along with his father, Aaron, as an example of how deep
the problem of real estate fraud goes.
Even just the two of them, over $42 million in rescuesion has been paid.
Eli, for what it's worth, seemed to be extremely and genuinely remorseful about his actions
and his quotes given for the article and in the podcast appearance at sites.
He places blame on himself for what he did and seems almost relieved in his imminent
two-year prison stint.
But Eli did not arrive at the Ashiva deal with Justice Family Connections.
In the interview with The Real Deal, journalists keyflashed and provided some context that
Eli elaborated upon.
But the Ashiva graduates don't have much in the way of formal business education, and
So they have to pursue careers with low barriers to entry, for its beliefs.
Nursing homes in real estate fit the bill.
It's definitely been a machine that's been on this vicious cycle.
And I think that people just look at my story as well as similar stories and just think
that it could have been them.
What I've been dancing around is what makes the Yashida system so problematic.
They teach their graduates absolutely no real world skills, but provide them with a vast
network of connections.
One would hope that the amount of response-
I mean, this is the same as like the- this is a big problem in Israel as well.
religious institutions that get a tremendous amount of their exemptions, including religious
institutions that get exemption from serving in the IDF, cause a major... like it's playing
a major role in societal collapse in Israel because all they do is learn about religion.
All they do is learn about religious texts and virtually nothing else.
This is a real problem an American yeshiva schooling as well
No math no science no nothing just religious text okay
In America, it's a big problem in New York and and in Lakewood as well
And the reason why it's a big problem is because there are I mean they're funneling resources
that would normally go to
public institutions and
and uh because it's a religious school it's actually
what? yeah fuck them tell me to get the fuck out of our politics and handle their own shit what are
you saying? israel is america you're so fucking dumb good job saying the quiet part out loud what
are you talking about what are you complaining about man? black holes move towards my huge dick
my dick is so big it can't be bent it will be our president but what's wrong with this guy
Even in the asming gold chat, he's getting fucking timed out because he's just crazy
Bro dial it back bro you sound unhinged
The fuck anyway, um, yeah, he's fucking
He's just
He's out of his mind anyway, these these guys they don't really teach anything and that's a big problem
The possibility for others' well-being is somewhat proportional to their qualifications
and skills.
Unfortunately, real estate is an area where this correlation is not enforced and not very
common in the first place, especially in Lakewood, where most working-age men were in the Yeshiva
system at one point.
The fact so many of these men chose to get into real estate is not actually all that surprising
when you account for all the factors going in.
One, the barrier to entry is nearly non-existent, a requirement for Yeshiva graduates who are
taught virtually zero transferable skills.
Two, a munch out with low entry barriers, real estate brokerages.
Not a big problem for Palestinian, in my honest opinion. No, it's a big problem for
Palestinians as well. We talk a lot. The Orthodox population specifically,
the Haareti population, is the only population growth that Israel is currently experiencing.
So the less educated the popular base of support for Israel is,
The more religious they are, the more they are expansionist, and not even remotely invested in being connected to the outside world at all, and just singularly focused on the greater Israel project, the harder it is to even turn Israel into a social pariah when they make themselves a social pariah personally.
A lot of the Kharedim who spend all day in their Yeshiva are also some of the least nationalists, so who knows?
I mean, I'm talking about some of the Orthodox communities. The Orthodox communities are some of the...
Like it's not just the Kharedim that are the religious communities that are getting religious education.
It's just the only area of growth is like people who are invested in in expanding the settlements
far and away the most lucrative and can guarantee a sizable middle-class income to men even in their
early 20s three Orthodox Jews tend to that's why I was saying like there will be a population
collapse in Israel that is imminent because all of like the well educated Ashkenazi
the population has dominated Israel for decades is becoming a tiny sliver of Israeli society.
Even though they've had a boost in population growth through the fall of the USSR, it's
still, you know, it's just, it's going to turn into, it's going to turn into a more reactionary
country than it is. Sounds crazy to say, but that's why you see support growing for Itamar
or bengivir and diminishing or even, what's the face?
Bezalos Montrach, for example, Bezalos Montrach has less support amongst the youth now because
they think he's too fucking woke.
You have large families.
For example, Eli Peretz already had two children he was referring to in the interview he gave,
one of whom would have been born around the time he started.
Yo, I actually have a question you asked Candace about Palestine and his support, but when
they're asking him, I'm down here, says, is why are they asking a New York mayor question
about Israel not rage baiting or anything? We're trying to understand why it changed
been in and out of streams. Um, great question. Don't think you're actually asking this sincerely.
I think you're digging for a quote that you can clip out of context most likely, but I'll
answer it regardless. I said, why are they asking a New York mayor if he would travel
to Israel? Okay. And I know the answer. New York politics is also deeply intertwined with
politics in Israel, same as Los Angeles. If you notice, the questions I asked Nithya weren't
specifically about America's relationship with Israel necessarily, but more so about her own
personal votes that she's, she's, she, or her own personal decisions as a council member in Los Angeles.
Okay.
Bro stole my question. What?
If you paid close attention to my questions to Nithya, they revolved around her own personal
decisions in the past.
Okay?
Yeah, I said, why did you support anti-BDS measures, for example, like Americans engaging
in a First Amendment Protected Act to protest Israel and barring them from doing that, barring
them from, uh, engaging in this First Amendment, barring Los Angeles knows from engaging in
this First Amendment Protected Act is a very American, very Los Angeles specific question
that, uh, revolves around Israel.
For this scheme at age 24, for supporting growing ultra Orthodox families, this necessitates
higher salaries for the men.
Women are allowed to work and extraducerate higher rates, at least in Israel among the
ultra-orthodox, but still make far less than their husbands on average.
All of this squeezes the Yashiva graduate who wishes to make a career for himself and do
a narrow range of potential jobs, with real estate offering the best returns for the most
ambitious.
It's easy to see how someone like Eli got wrapped up in this with barely high school
education.
So how does this tie into cars for kids?
Quite easily, it turns out.
Ura has been in this real estate game for a long time and has spent millions of donated
dollars on Jerry's properties.
Ura lost over 7 million after supposedly falling victim to a Ponzi scheme.
This is compared to the 12 million that they spent on children's programming during the
same time period.
I say supposedly as Ura apparently used Liam Peretz, the father of the currently incarcerated
Aaron Peretz, as their go-to developer.
I couldn't find any indication that Lee was involved in the Ponzi scheme at any point,
but this might also just be Ura covering their own ass.
Ura also works with retailers through Cars for Kids.
They have a brokerage referral program which allows realtors to refer their clients to
to cars for kids and get reimbursed
if the client donates the property to cars for kids.
This has allowed cars for kids to accumulate
a sizable portfolio of properties,
most free of the empty lots in semi-rural areas,
but with taxed on these being miniscule
for URA's balance sheets,
it might be part of a longer term strategy.
In case you thought URA wanted to keep this under the table,
they actually offered learning opportunities
for those interested in real estate.
It's not totally clear how this program works,
but it's not totally kept a secret either.
There's more to this,
There's more to everything about URA, but this is the gist of what I could find.
Still, sketchy financial dealings are only really scratching the surface when it comes
to what makes Cars For Kids slash URA a truly reprehensible organization.
Well, his father, Mince, is the spiritual leader.
Oya-Hu Mince is the brains behind URA and Cars For Kids when it comes to their day-to-day
operations.
It's hard to find a definitive picture of a younger or even current day Mince.
uses Fivish as a profile picture whenever possible, but does post prolifically on Facebook
and to his personal website.
We'll get to that in a bit.
His Facebook is where you can see some little details about how cars for kids is spending
their money, like on a Hummer for their boy's own summer camp and on Fivish's fun mobile.
To catch the point, Elia Humins is a rabid Zionist who takes every opportunity that he
can to either deny or justify the atrocities committed by Israel.
On his personal blog, he conflates criticism of Israel with anti-semitism.
No!
Why am I on the internet?
That's so rare for people who defend Israel.
That's like, wow.
That's so strange.
You never, you never really, you never really hear that at all from people who like to defend
Israel.
So I'm shocked that this guy's doing it.
He condemns Israel and not actual human rights abuses.
In his other blog, he further dehumanizes Palestinians, referring to them only as either
Arabs or as the so-called Palestinian people.
This is also where he rages against the fact that Booking.com dared to put up warnings
for people looking at hotels in the occupied West Bank, which Minz refers to as Judea and
Samaria, implying all of it belongs to Israel.
His feelings on this might be connected to his downplaying of statements made by Israeli
finance minister Beziles, who called for a Palestinian village to be wiped out because
there were no innocent people living there.
Beyond the borders of Israel, Minz has expressed his support for the assassination of Iran's
leadership by the United States or Israel itself.
He also celebrated the fact that Gal Gadot passed Jiji Hadid in Instagram Followers,
which is strange for him to do because I thought that Orthodox Judaism wasn't too accepting
to the kind of person that cares about the following numbers of female celebrities.
It really raises the question of why the head of such a large charity is putting his opinions
out here like this.
To partially answer the question, I think it's because this organization has insulated
itself from public opinion so much that its CEO can save these things on his own blog
and not get in trouble for it.
So it's not the first thing that Uruk prefers to keep under wraps.
This is a content warning for sexual assault.
I'll put up a timestamp for when I stop talking about it.
By the time Dorina Sokolovsky settled out of court with Ura, over six years had passed.
For all these years, Sokolovsky had been pursued relentlessly by the Orthodox community for
uploading a video detailing or sexual abuse at the hands of Gidi Kohn-Shankov, one of
the counselors at the Girls' Zone, and the issue was repeatedly pushed to rabbinical
courts in order to protect Shankov from answering for these crimes as an employee of Ura.
It was only thanks to the work of people in Zaka, a victim's advocacy group working
in the Orthodox community, that this case even came to light.
Speaking out against abuse in any community is hard enough, but one that prizes insularity
and trust as much as the orthodox community makes coming forward a uniquely difficult,
emotional, mental, and sometimes even physical ordeal.
Zakh actually lists on the web.
There's a very famous case where there was a girl who actually accused her parents and
then I think she died, right?
This was in Israel.
Um, let me see if I can find the details, like very recently, yeah, this was an Israeli minister.
Um, Israeli minister, uh, whose, uh, daughter accused the family of sexual abuse found dead from D.D. Savoza, Turkish outlet.
But the daughter of Israel's far right national missions minister, or it struck was found dead in her home in northern Israel.
already said is police open an investigation in the case. Amid reports that she had recently
accused their parents of sexual abuse and they were doing like weird ritualistic sexual
abuse as well. Something fucking crazy. Shoshana Shrook 34, the daughter of national men's
missions minister, Orit Shrook was found dead Sunday in her home in northern Israel under
circumstances that remain unclear. The Jerusalem Post reported police have launched an investigation
into the death. The officials have not publicly disclosed details about the cause.
In recent months, Shoshana had posted several videos and messaged on social media in which
she claimed that she had been subjected to sexual abuse and exploitation by her parents
during her childhood.
She also said she had received threats and feared for her safety.
In one video statement shared earlier this year, she had been, she said that the abuse
began when she was very young while growing up in the Jewish settlement of Hebron.
She also claimed that as a teenager she was trafficked and exploited in Tel Aviv, a legend
that her father profited from the abuse.
Shoshana said she had reported some of the allegations to authorities and had been forced
leave her apartment after what she described as a recent assault. Police have not confirmed
the allegations she made publicly and the status of any investigations related to those
claims remain unclear.
Sites a few key difficulties with holding abuses accountable in the orthodox way. Once
again, this is like consistent with all fundamentalist sects. Okay, this is a byproduct of religious
fundamentalism in many instances. It's not unique. It's not specific to Judaism in any
way shape or form. It's just that Israel is a country that is dominated by fundamentalists
and is a very far right country. So you hear a lot of this stuff take place or you don't
really hear a lot about this kind of stuff taking place in Israel because many of you
probably don't read Israeli news and you only hear about Israel from American newspapers
and American media, which rarely ever cover the shit at all. As a matter of fact, they
choose not to cover this shit at all. I think as Israel's population shifts, they will lose
the remaining positive image people have of the country in the West. Israel seems a modern
Western liberal. Exactly. They're basically considered European. Exactly. That was deliberately
done by the way. The original settlers, the original Jewish settlers were primarily of
Ashkenazi descent and they wanted to create a European image. When they were, when they
were creating when they were designing Israeli society. They very carefully constructed this
European image because they understood that massive transfer of wealth from European countries was
a necessity to build Israel out. They were very secular. They were very progressive in many ways,
even though obviously the underlying Zionist ideology still required the extermination of
of the indigenous population, the Arabs, the Palestinians, right?
So, you know, they also were, in many respects, Soviet-aligned as well, initially.
So that is completely going away.
And I think people don't realize that once that goes away, once Israel becomes a complete
pariah in and of itself, it's going to make that allegiance with the Western world even
more difficult, which is something that I think Benjamin Netanyahu and many others in
Israeli society are trying to, like, rid themselves of. They're trying to rid themselves of their
over-reliance on Western partners, but I think it's not going to work. Like, Israel will
never be an autonomous country. It can't be. It has no, like, its entire economy is currently
propped up by wealthy benefactors from the West, right?
Even if they didn't get the social cover, the political cover of unbelievably popular
Western nations and the unlimited funds that they seemingly receive in military aid from
the United States of America and many other Western nations, without all of that, Israel
ceases to exist. They can't exist. Right? Like, they have a pharmaceutical industry,
but when you become a social, when you become a pariah state, the academics are gonna leave,
right? When you have to focus on your own indigenous defense industry, all of a sudden,
you can't actually fund the public institutions and academia that is necessary to consistently
uh... have uh... a
like it for you know novel chemical compound discovery for
uh... the the pharmaceutical industry that like uh... is is one of the only
areas of growth in israel that
that makes israel like a valuable entity
and yes you might
think i'm talking about israel but guess what i'm actually talking about the
united states of america
which is going through the exact same motions right now because the united
states of america is also a fascist country that has destroyed its own
education and is actively crippling the publicly funded institutions. Israel and America are
very similar to one another in many, in many respects. Okay.
Community, quote, many communities, particularly Haredi, ultra orthodox communities, have institutional
policies requiring that victims ask rabbis for permission before reporting to child sexual
abusers to secular authorities. Other leveraged points often involve pressuring victims or
their families into silence by threatening them with unemployment, eviction, expulsion of their
children from Meshiva, the prospect of their children and extended families being inedible for
shidrcham, nashmaking, or general ostracism from the community. This is also not just a case of
hush money being paid so that an organization wouldn't have to deal with the fallout and
paperwork of the lawsuit. Ura fought this lawsuit tooth and nail. According to Zaka,
motions and subpoenas were filed as often as possible at Ura in order to prove that the
lawsuit was being brought on by Zaka and not the plaintiff. Some of this is obviously to be
expected by a group trying to win a legal battle and we don't have Ura's interpretation of events,
but given how long this was drawn out and the fact that Ura went on the legal counter-offensive
to get as many documents sealed as possible, it does raise a lot of questions as to what their
and goal was. The list gone to here, gone with what the victim was put through out of court,
suggests that the goal was not a quiet settlement, but explicit punishment. Of course, the greatest
revelation from all of this is that the money donated to cars for kids is being used to settle
child sexual abuse lawsuits. There's no way around this fact and it should raise more red flags than
even the disregard for children's physical safety at their camps. URA has not publicly acknowledged
this lawsuit or offered any kind of explanation for what their role in it was, leaving Zaka
as the only reliable source I'm much transpired.
I've reached out to URA, but not gotten a response back yet.
Of all the dangers in the zone camps,
not all of them are to campers or animals.
The most dangerous conditions are endured
by the contractors that relies upon.
See, subcontracting itself isn't all that unusual.
And a summer camp that needs regular maintenance
and new construction is going to be utilizing
these services fairly often.
What's notable about URA is how they treat their contracts.
Yes, you might know Zaka as the, as the religious group that was responsible for a metric ton
of atrocity propaganda, uh, post October seven, uh, they were obviously condemned and criticized
internally inside of Israel. Uh, some of those criticisms made their way to the United States
of America, but Western press once again, not unsurprising to people who've been paying
intention to this stuff was a little bit blind in death to all of the many criticisms of Zaka.
Factors, or really anyone outside their immediate organization. According to an anonymous source
who lived in the community around the zone I spoke to, people who do work at the zone are
routinely underpaid, which would be consistent with protests outside URA's headquarters that
occurred back in 2010 and with Facebook comments I've read by local residents. This anonymous source
also learned of being to an incident that occurred in one of the ponds on Bighton Run near the zone.
Around 2.30 on Friday, March 31, 2023, police were called to respond to a call off Scotch Valley
Road in Schohear County, according to the Times Union. A small boat had flipped and three of the
passengers were plunged into the icy waters. Two of them had emerged, one could not be found.
Would be another day before the body of Juan E. Parcos Seyes could be recovered. Seyes,
an Ecuadorian national, is being employed as part of a team in selling tiles for the zone,
But we're not officially employees of the company the fact that a camp spokesperson was quick to point out despite only working as contractors
It was reported that these men were living on site at the camp
It was never clarified why these men were fishing in the pond that it just recently thought the fact that these men were living on site in a
Remote area with potentially hostile employers makes the fact that they were fishing in these conditions seem less and less like a way to pass the time
My source told me that the other two men were gone the next day
Presumably going back to New Jersey or to their families in Ecuador at least one can only hope
URA runs a ruthless operation of the zone, but the way in which it is ruthless is not
in its staff management, URA runs a ruthlessly efficient operation of the zone, but the way
in which it is ruthless is not in its staff management, in its scheduling, or even in
its building.
In fact, it's pretty bad at all of those things.
What it is ruthlessly efficient at is how they have kept this operation going for over
a decade without significant public backlash, despite the fact it is a beneficiary of a
nationwide advertising campaign.
can really only hope that this changes soon all right we uh we went on a deep
tangent here that was crazy deep in the pocket and it all started with this just
kidding even though this is very strange realistic mustache human hair
handmade fake beards with invisible soft lace, natural looking cost and facial hair.
Um, yeah, Amazon is, uh, this, this, uh, Amazon seller is using my likeness to sell moustaches
to those who want a little bit of gender affirming care.
Um, the, what's the point of all of this?
Oh, the reason why we looked at it is because cars for kids.
There's also the rise of online cruelty.
There's my Ted Tower.
We're going to be watching as well.
You should give a shout out to True Announcement Cars for Kids series.
Yeah, shout out to True Announcement Cars for Kids series.
The guy who made it, I think, is the one who was interviewed.
Ghost of Kuwait strikes again.
Oh, I saw this.
Watch two US Navy F-A-18 fighter just collide midair while performing an air show in Idaho.
uh... i assume what is the price point for this what what this little debacle
gobble hunt maybe a hundo
one hundred mil
I apologize for showing you this deeply anti-semitic incident. Obviously that was a hundred million dollars that could have been given to the beautiful nation state of Israel and instead was wasted on the countryside of Idaho.
Oh, just saying, think about that, those, those jets could have, those jets could have
died fighting in Iran or something, you know?
The planes didn't want to go to Iran.
They wanted to embrace each other and true love and go out on their own terms.
I can respect that.
Yeah. What a lot of people don't know is that when jets are feeling very worried, this is,
they only do this when they're under tremendous stress and tremendous pressure. It's kind
of like whales. You know how like whales beach themselves to do suicide? This is jet suicide.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Jet expert here, jets only do this when they're under tremendous pressure. All right. We're
We're gonna do a quick hit on Cuba. Trump is turning his attention to Cuba now that he's
done with China, okay? We're gonna cover this real quickly, real briefly.
American media is back to its old tricks. Unsurprisingly, Donald Trump is coming back
from the Beijing summit with not a lot of gains. It was fairly unremarkable overall.
It was yet another revelation for those who are paying close attention that America's
time in the spotlight as the singular hegemon is coming to an end.
And in an effort to reinforce its power around the world, we are looking to strike increasingly
vulnerable and smaller targets.
Obviously, Iran failed in spectacular fashion.
We know that it failed in spectacular fashion.
It didn't work at all.
actually I think put a significant hit in the confidence that people had in American security
cooperative arrangements. So now we're hitting an even weaker target, a much more vulnerable target,
the country of Cuba that happens to be 90 miles off the coastline of the United States of America.
Okay.
A country that we have dominated through a sanctions terrorism package for the past 60
years for the crime of having a successful socialist revolution, a successful revolution
that didn't even start off as a socialist revolution, but turned into a communist one
later down the line.
about this extensively. I've been to Cuba recently as you guys know to deliver humanitarian aid to
see with my own two eyes how devastating America's oil blockade looks like. That oil blockade
continued with one exception where one Russian oil tanker was able to go through cut through the
oil blockade and actually deliver some oil to the island, but now they've run out of
oil once again.
Here is Mark Capito's reporting from Axios. Cuba has acquired more than 300 military
drones and recently began discussing plans to use them to attack the U.S. basic Guantanamo
Bay military vessels, possibly Key West, 90 miles north of Havana. They are trying to
develop a pretext to engage in a first strike in Cuba. Last week, the United States also
decided to indict former Cuban leader, Ro Castro, who's like 90 years old. So we're
gearing up. We're gearing up to do a special military operation, not dissimilar to the
one that took place in Venezuela, but this time in Cuba. Cuba is even less protected
Venezuela for being real Cuba has a much more stable government than Venezuela does
however Cuba obviously doesn't have a fraction of the military that Venezuela has and therefore
you know um this kind of pretext this kind of justification this kind of manufacturing consent
will most likely lead to a swift military operation or there'll they might there could be a
decapitation strike or there could be an extraction mission to extract again 90-year-old
Roel Castro and operate a sham trial just like the one that Maduro is going through right now
and then probably implement a puppet state. Last week, the CIA was also in Cuba having direct
talks with Cuba. So it's very clear where this is headed. The Justice Department moved towards
an indictment against former Cuban president Raul Castro. AP sources says this was from May 15th,
two days ago. Financial Times reporting on possible Cuban military. Donald Trump turns
up the heat on Cuba. This is months in the making, as you guys know. And the only thing that held
America back was most likely that the military failures in the Strait of Hormuz, the quagmire
that they got into in the Strait of Hormuz, what stopped them from engaging in this idiotic
and unjustifiable and unbelievably cruel initiative on an island nation that we have
destroyed personally for decades. I responded to the Mark Capito tweet saying Cuba has never
been a threat to the United States. The only threat, its only threat was being a successful
alternative, a country that fought and won its own sovereignty and dignity. We starved
them for that and never stopped. Between this and the near-times funding piece, we're manufacturing
consent for war. Okay. There is no strategic purpose to the destruction of Cuba. It is
just rank cruelty. Okay. It's cold war, boomer vengeance that is still guiding a lot of people.
Maybe you can call it like an ethnic tension, like an ethnic vengeance quest led by the
Guisano lobby, the American Cubans that still have basically mythologized this alternative
Cuba, this alternative history in Cuba.
That's precisely the reason why I see many people, including Marco Rubio, including Ted
crews, including Bob Menendez, falsely claim that their family was persecuted by Fidel Castro.
This is not even true. Okay. That's one of the most fascinating aspects of the American
Cuban lobby is that many of them actually didn't even flee. They just kind of personally
left under the Batista regime. They didn't like what was going on under the Batista regime.
was very cruel, Batista was our ally of course, at the time, and they just straight up lie
about the fact that it was actually Fidel Castro that took away their land or anything
or something like that, and that's why they had to run away to the United States of America.
This is a very common thing. There are probably Cuban-Americans in this chat right now that
have heard this story from their immediate relatives, and if they actually were to dig
deep and look at the timeline of when their relatives came to the United States of America,
they'd realized that their relatives actually didn't own any fucking property in Cuba at all,
and it wasn't seized by the cruel communist fetal cash row regime at all. They just, their
immediate family members came here, their grandparents came here when Batista was in charge.
very very interesting here is this is unbelievably common combate uphold
reality says our worded Ted Cruz my father was imprisoned and tortured in Cuba I
hate communists look my father was imprisoned and tortured in Cuba I hate
communist. It was actually Batista that tortured my dad.
You know, very strange. Very strange and very fascinating diasporoid mythos
here, okay? And it is propped up by virtually all of the boomer anti-communist
Cubans.
My parents still think that Cuba is an authoritarian country, and mind you, we're not even Cuban,
we're Mexican.
Yes, that is also because the media instruments in Latin America are unbelievably far right.
That's precisely the reason why Morena had to establish its own direct communications
channels on YouTube.
And the, of course, unbelievably far-right network of media in Latin America, backed by
massive businesses, will utilize anti-Cuban, anti-communist sentiment as a warning so that
they can associate whatever kind of like social democratic initiatives with, by socialists
or sometimes communist governing parties, with the dangers of Cuba and Cuban authoritarianism.
It's very common.
Mind you, the anti-communist influencers in Cuba started begging for donation as soon
as USAID was cut.
Yes, of course, USAID has played a formative role in propping up anti-communist sentiment
inside of Cuba.
Very common.
I mean, this is very, very well reported on to even in the United States of America.
There have been so many sometimes hilarious failed initiatives to foment a counter-revolution
inside of Cuba, even as recently as a couple decades ago, that it failed.
There was a rap project conducted by the State Department.
For those of you who don't know, there was literally like, they were funding Cuban rappers
to rap about how bad communism is.
It failed.
There was an internet project as soon as the internet was initiated in Cuba and that was
another thing.
They were trying to create like a walled garden and intercept the Cuban internet and turn
it into like anti-communist internet, which I think had a lot more success if we're being
real.
From what I understand, COVID was a turning point for the counter-revolutionary movement.
was a big turning point because, uh, 29, pre 2019, the Cuban government, uh, gave free
access to the internet at parks and on certain locations, right? And then post 2019, they,
uh, allowed, they, they basically fixed their infrastructure. They, they improved their infrastructure
to allow internet to exist all around the island. And that literally hogified the entire
fucking country almost overnight, accelerated by COVID and lockdowns during COVID. There
was a big protest. It was one of the first ever massive protests that took place. Well,
over 10% of the Cuban population left after COVID as well. Tourism collapsed. Things have
gotten so much worse, of course. All of this was also accelerated by the 2019 secondary
sanctions that the Trump administration implemented that made it unbelievably difficult, even
even more difficult to trade with Cuba, right? There are numerous instances in our relationship
with Cuba where we have specifically designed laws in the United States of America to render
trade with Cuba impossible, not only for American companies, but also European companies
and other companies in Latin America as well, okay? This design was purposely invisible so
that you could have plausible deniability that no one wanted to trade with Cuba. Cuba doesn't have a
God-given right to trade with other countries. If they can, communism is so good, why can't they
thrive? Right? Well, they can't because you made trade impossible
with sanctions that you would implement on any country that dared to trade with Cuba.
Yeah, I'm Cuban. There was massive protest on July 11, 2021. It was 100 fuel, 100% fuel by the CIA,
same as the sonic attacks in the USMC. There was dismantled after the being office. So yeah,
that was what I was going to say. The big turning point was July 11, 2021. There were massive protests.
Cuba had very limited counter-revolutionary protests. Cubans are very proud people in general.
And it was unlike anything that has ever existed. It was the SOS Cuba campaign that was beefed up
by the Gosanna lobby here in the United States of America. And there were a lot of arrests
that took place in that process, including some people that I know who are still reporters
inside of Cuba, the belly of the beast guys. They had some of their reporters get arrested
in the process too. And, and yeah, that's where we're, this is where we're at. Since 2019,
once Trump came back into office, obviously, Biden never eased those sanctions at all until the
last day in office. It was disgusting. What he did, it was like a last, it was the last fuck you
to the Cubans, basically, where he removed those sanctions the last day in office. Trump immediately
put those sanctions back on. And Trump a couple months ago decided to create a full blown blockade,
not just secondary sanctions for any tankers or any ships that touch a Cuban port that won't be able
able to that won't be utilized in trade with the United States of America for 180 days.
But they just straight up said, we are going to implement a naval blockade to ensure that
there is not a single drop of oil that Cuba receives unless it's our oil tankers, because
it's not entirely correct to say that Cuba doesn't receive any oil whatsoever.
Guantanamo Bay receives oil from the United States of America all the time.
is a colonial outpost for the United States of America.
Many people might not know that.
It also happens to be our extra judicious torture prison that we have.
And yeah, they have energy, they have oil, Gitmo needs to have its power, obviously,
they can continue torturing people. It must have McDonald's on it.
So there was one attempt as well from random radicals, 10 Cubans on US boat intended to
carry out an armed infiltration. Havana says, if you remember, I covered this already. They
rolled up to the Cuban Coast Guard, started opening fire, Cuban Coast Guard killed a couple
of them and then the rest of them were treated in a Cuban facility. But they recovered a tremendous
amount of weapons off of those boats as well. Cuban Americans that tried to infiltrate and
start a counter-revolution inside of Cuba, it failed. This was a couple months ago,
reported in February 25th, 2026, even before we went to Cuba as well.
Now, yeah, they tried to do another Bay of Hogs and it failed.
Axios just published classified intelligence of the Trump administration says shows Cuba
is planning drone attacks on Guantanamo Bay, U.S. warships in Key West.
I'm calling false flag.
The source is one anonymous senior U.S. official.
Reuters could not independently verify the report.
Axios' own framing in the article itself states the intelligence could become a pretext
for U.S. military action.
Because the second time this year, a U.S. administration has had classified intelligence
leaked about a Caribbean adversary planning attacks on U.S. targets during a period of
U.S. military build-up in the region, to which Ruben Diego said no country in the current
economic and military situation that Cuba is in would ever preemptively strike a superpower
like the U.S. has just propagated a build-a-case for an invasion of Cuba.
Now, what's interesting about this is this is coming from Ruben fucking Diego, not exactly
a bleeding heart communist by any means.
Okay?
I'm glad that there are some other Democrats who are finally speaking out about this kind
of fuckery.
I think this should be treated.
If you want to treat it like a partisan issue, that's fine, but this is another unbelievably
cruel action that we are already initiating that we will only worsen.
What coincidence, Nick Field says, that Cuba has finally decided to attack America after
70 years, right?
When the Trump administration was planning their own regime change, what a strange bit
timing. Oh well, let's not look into it. Trump is going full theocracy. Okay, we'll do that in a second.
Arturo Dominguez says, no one believes the story about Cuba attacking the US to be true.
That's how ridiculous it sounds yet. These Miami Cubans are going to try to weaponize
this nonsense. There's nothing else they've tried is working, goes to show how dishonest they are
and always has been. Yeah, Mario Diaz-Balart says, we've seen the threat drones pose in the Middle
least. Now they are 90 miles from our shores and near critical infrastructure is clear.
The Cuban regime is a national security threat.
I mean I there they're not even trying they don't even need to try that's the that's the
whole point right? It's a real what are you gonna do about it type situation here?
Because the democratic wishes of the majority do not fucking matter. Yeah, this
is what most gusano sound like. Still mad they took my grandfather's
plantation. Real Cubans like me love the US, US, Israeli embargo. His slaves were
happy according to him. For slave owners capitalism is freedom.
You said 1998, yeah, you mean, uh, 1898, the Belgian, uh, wait, no, not 1898.
No, there's, what are you talking about?
No, after, after the Cuban revolution, there was, uh, you're, after the Cuban revolution,
or you're talking about USS Maine, but after the Cuban revolution, they also blew up another
America allegedly blew up another weapon shipment that was coming in from Belgium.
Yeah, you're talking about the US's main, but there is, this has happened. I mean, this is also a rewriting for the record.
What is taking place right here?
What is taking place right here?
is also not dissimilar to previous incidents, previous false flag attempts that we have
designed, okay?
So even on this end, even the false manufacturing context or manufacturing pretext for a first
strike on Cuba has been entertained in the past JFK very famously said no to it. There
was an initiative by the CIA at the time to create some kind of false flag where there
would be an attempt at terrorism on US soil and they would pin it on Cubans. They wanted
to make it seem like Cuba did, you know, like a 9-11 style attack on, uh, you know, in,
in Miami on US soil, JFK said, that's insane. We don't want that operation. North was the
name. I've covered it before on this broadcast. And, uh, yeah. And then, and then JFK was
so mad about the, the numerous failures of the CIA and also this like insane attempt
that uh... it was reported uh...
jfk was reported saying i'm gonna rip the cia in the shreds and and you know
peace by peace
and then what happened to the cia was well we don't know what happened in the
cia but what happened to his head was what he said he was going to do the cia
uh... on that one
sad
afternoon
in
dallas texas
Okay, so who knows? Yeah, okay, so there is that. The Trump administration is sharply escalating
his pressure campaign to get Cuba to open up its economy and allow greater political freedoms.
Okay, sure. Even as the conflict in Iraq continues, the US is using a mix of threats and inducements
including new sanctions, potential indictments and offers of aid to force the issue in the
the coming weeks. And it's surprising this is the island on Thursday, C.I. Director
John Ratcliffe delivered a message to Cuba that a rare chance to stabilize its failing
economy according to a U.S. official.
But there is also an implicit threat that the U.S. could resort to the sort of military
action that it took in Venezuela in January. This I think is literally because Trump wants
it for the record. It might come across as silly, but I genuinely think the only reason
why this is happening is because Trump wants it. Because you don't need to do this at all
to Cuba. I know for a fact, from my own personal conversations with both Cubans and even people
in the government as well, that they are, and their own revelations as well, they want
to cut a deal with America. They just don't want America to keep killing them, okay?
So I mean, Cuba does not have the military capabilities of staving off an American attack.
ridiculous. It's no longer the 60s or 70s. There's no USSR aid here. There's no major
global power that is going to offer any sort of military aid to Cuba. They have nothing.
And their economy has been destroyed by the United States of America. They just want respite.
They want to be able to operate like a normal country, right?
They want to be able to operate like a normal fucking country, that's all they want.
And America's not giving it to them.
I mean, we've destroyed their, uh, their, their, their electrical grid, but with these
ridiculous sanctions is totally unjust.
All, and then we offer them a crumb of aid in return with conditions.
It's fucking ridiculous.
Totally unnecessary.
Right.
Anyway, the two governments have been in talks since February, but after some
initial signs of movement, the US administration has, uh, over the past fortnight
been signaling a sense of growing frustration here.
C.I. Director John Rackliffe attending a meeting with Cuban officials in Havana on Thursday.
A U.S. official said the administration fear the Cubans were playing for time.
You can take that too.
Thank you.
No, thank you.
The U.S. official said the administration fear the Cubans are playing for time, giving
both the drawn-out conflict with Iran and opinion polls predicting strong results for
Democrats in November's midterm elections.
Washington is pushing for Cuba to liberalize its economy.
Once again, Cuba has said, Cuba has taken the initiative in the aftermath of the Obamity.
Doesn't this sound identical to fucking Trump with JCPOA, by the way?
Trump destroys the JCPOA. Trump destroys the JCPOA says, oh, we got a better deal for Cuba.
They should liberalize this economy. Sorry, not the JCPOA, it's our Cuban normalization.
Yeah, Cuba liberalizes economy after normalization with Barack Obama. I can't believe it. He
He just literally is doing a shittier, more violent version, a less successful version
of everything that Barack Obama has done as far as fucking foreign policy.
It's so ridiculous, dude.
It doesn't make any fucking sense to me at all.
It doesn't make any sense.
He literally is just like ripping apart over his two terms, all the stuff that Barack Obama
did only to like put another shittier version of it from the American side.
And I mean, shittier overall for everybody involved, let's be real.
I'm putting his name on him.
Cuba does not constitute a threat to the United States of America, it's fucking bullshit.
Anyway, let's watch this now.
They are running out of electricity, and so they are protesting against America and its embargo.
For the last four months, Cubans have been cut up from their traditional lifeline, Venezuelan
oil, in what looks like Washington's attempt at regime change, in what it's always regarded
as its backyard.
We have gone more than 40 hours without electricity.
I live in a community where there are many elderly people, many of them bedridden.
food is going bad inside refrigerators. That's the little food which can actually be bought.
America's domino theory was that Cuba's 1959 revolution would eventually flip all of Latin
America communist. But now Donald Trump, who was flying back from China on Friday, is trying
to flip Cuba capitalism's way instead.
You talk about a declining country, they are really a nation, or a country in decline,
so we're going to see, we have a lot to talk about in Cuba, but not maybe for today's
time.
The president sent his CIA.
By the way, every Latin American country is the same.
every election cycle, they go and they fucking vote for a social Democrat
who is immediately called a communist.
The social Democrat does like maybe modest improvements on some social safety
nets. And then at the end of his term,
every single Latin American country turns around and goes, oh,
we just need a fascist actually.
We just need a fascist who is going to be a neoliberal.
So then they elect the fascist neoliberal and
approximately three weeks into the reign of the fascist neoliberal.
The entire country decides, oh my god, this was a fucking massive mistake.
How could we have done this?
We should shut the shit down with a general strike.
Literally.
I don't know what the fuck goes on in the minds of Latin American countries and the
citizens living there, but they will literally elect the neoliberal fascists and they will
go in a matter of weeks, not even like a year, they don't wait for a year. They'll be like,
oh my God, it took us one week to realize we made a massive mistake.
The only exception right now to this cycle in Latin America is Mexico, okay?
Okay. I don't understand how you go and you vote for the neoliberal fascism party. Like,
it'll literally be like, hello, I am, please vote for me. I am Pinochet's grandson. And
I love what my grandfather did to this country. And then the country will be like, this is
a great idea. We should vote for Pinochet's grandson. We should do neoliberal fascism
here and then a week later to be like what a mistake this was we have to stop we have
to cripple the entire economy now we have to do a masht right
I said, bro, y'all voted for him. What the fuck?
In any case, the reason for why I'm bringing this up is because like flipping Cuba into
a capitalist country is not going to have any reverberations for other nation states.
Capitalism itself is a contradictory system that's destroying itself, that's eating itself
alive so people are already frustrated.
Isn't neoliberal and fascist oxymoronic?
What?
Buddy, do you know who Pinochet is?
Oxymoronic, that's the OG fascist.
Or not the OG fascist, the OG neoliberal, sorry.
Director John Ratcliffe to Havana this week.
America's chief spy demanding what the agency called fundamental changes.
with U.S. officials not ruling out the use of force.
The faces of U.S. intelligence officers were blurred
in what is otherwise a blatant return to the politics of the Cold War.
It's my personal opinion. You cannot change the economic trajectory
of Cuba as long as the people who are in charge of it now are in charge of it.
That's what's going to have to change because these people are proven incapable.
I hope I'm wrong. We'll give them a chance, but I don't think it's going to happen.
I don't think we're going to be able to change the trajectory of Cuba
as long as these people are in charge in that regime.
Raul Castro still dresses like a Cuban revolutionary,
even though he's about to turn 95 next month.
The Americans are talking to his bodyguard, wearing blue in the middle here.
That's also Raul Castro's grandson, but prosecutors in Florida
are also threatening to indict the old man
to face trial in the United States, as they did before capturing
Venezuela's president earlier this year.
The message to the Cubans is very clear that a similar situation could arise with Raul Castro
being under indictment and potentially extradite.
So the message to the Cubans is clear, the pressure is on, a timeline has been delivered
and now it's going to be up to the Cubans as to whether or not they comply.
It seems unlikely that US special forces really would mount an operation to capture a frail
95 year old but what he's becoming clearer is that Cuba could well be living on borrowed time.
For what? Do the United States of America, the CIA would do flyover missions over Cuba
and deployed bioweapons during the Cold War.
So obviously Cuban anti-air defense systems were very highly alerted
to any sort of unsanctioned flight missions over the Cuban airspace.
And one of these unsanctioned flight missions was what is it called?
The Brothers something.
It was like a fake, fake anti-Cuba, anti-communist charity.
And they were doing a flight mission where they were, according to the American side,
they were doing a flight mission to drop flyers over Cuban airspace.
And they were warned numerous times.
They were warned numerous times with the Cuban administration, the Cuban military, and they
did not respond.
the Cubans shot them down. This was many, many years ago. The American government is
using that as a reason to indict Raul Castro, the fucking, yeah, brothers to the rescue.
Thank you. Edmonos, Arrescate, brothers to the rescue. They're using that as a reason.
They're saying it was his responsibility.
Americans are not demanding this Caribbean island transition to democracy. But these
departing CIA officers are tasked with changing Cuba's leadership to open it up to American
companies and giving President Trump, their boss, the kind of geopolitical success which
Iran has so far denied.
controversial streamer
It's so funny
Literally all of these countries want to do business with America
With Iran
Iran would love to do business with America. That's one of their demands
When we talk about sanctions relief in Iran, which is very clearly their major demand,
that is sanctions relief for American companies so they can do business with Iranian companies.
Like that's literally the number one demand that Iran has made since the sanctions started.
Of course they want fucking business with America.
It's the consumption engine of the planet.
So when Trump is like, yeah, they just we have to fucking kill them dead so that they'll
do business with us.
It's so stupid.
Same with Cuba.
Just take the sanctions off then dumbass.
What do you mean?
It's so fucking stupid.
Yeah, clavicular has been charged.
But there's more.
I wanted to cover more like you guys have like a good video that we can watch potentially
about quick resource that we can point to for what America's done in Cuba, maybe not
my own documentary, obviously.
Yeah, go back to my YouTube plays. Why is clavicular charge in the middle of a lesbian flag? I don't know
The Cuba stuff makes me feel like my blood pressure is going up
Yeah, I know
Overzealots is actually pretty good. He has some Cuba videos
We could watch
We were watching in defense of Cuba how the media lies to you here. I'll just drop you into this right now
Actually due to the US blockade
I don't think I need to remind you about the negatives when that's all the Western media loves to go on about
Instead let this video serve as a counterbalance that highlights all that's commendable about post revolutionary Cuba
Immediately upon taking over the new Cuban revolutionary government got to work implementing the Moncada program making good on Castro's platform
outlined back during his trial in 53. Cuba at this time was suffering from immense income inequality
exacerbated by the years of colonialism, neocolonialism, US-backed dictatorship, and a collaborationist
compredor Cuban elite. As we've already seen, those who aim to diminish the results of the Cuban
Revolution love to claim that prior to Castro, Cuba was a rich country. Cuba had, in 1958, the
year before Castro took over the highest standard of living of any Latin American country in half
However, this is the same old dishonest bullshit said about many pre-revolutionary societies
where the riches are funneled straight to the upper echelons while the masses live
in squalor.
To quote Vijay Prashad and Noam Chomsky on the matter.
Studied by professors in Havana from 1957 noted,
The city of Havana is living in an epoch of extraordinary prosperity while in the countryside
people, especially the agricultural workers, are living in sluggish, miserable and desperate
conditions too difficult to believe. That is why the new revolution's agrarian reform
law was so eagerly anticipated. See, one of the ways the revolutionary government
tackled this issue of inequality was by limiting land holdings and redistributing land to
the peasantry. Contrary to what you may have heard, Castro did offer compensation for this.
These agrarian reforms not only broke up the Latifunja, huge estates controlled by a small,
A typically white elite whose power flowed directly from colonial era land structures,
but also led to the expropriation, again with compensation, and redistribution of the vast
arable land hoarded by foreign companies to the detriment of the Cuban masses.
To quote Arnold August's Cuba and its neighbors.
According to a 2008 U.S. Department of Agriculture report, in the late 1950s, U.S. interests
owned 75% of the arable land.
The end result of these land reforms was the distribution of land to over 100,000 landless
farmers who had previously lived in poverty.
Aside from the land reforms Castro's government emphasized.
For the record, Pito Castro's parents also owned land.
As a testament to how much of a real one he is, he also literally took pieces of the farmland
that his own family owned that was beyond the government allotted like personal land usage?
And he redistributed it back.
Sized the need for human services and more radical change.
And they wasted no time getting going.
The urban reform law of 1960 set rents to no more than 10% of a family's income.
Mortgage rates were cut.
Cuba is the most...
Overhated.
maligned like unjustified in maligned country on the planet, dude. Fidel Castro and Che Guevara are
genuinely two of the greatest revolutionaries in history. I love Lenin, I love Fidel Castro,
and I love Che Guevara. They are genuinely fucking heroes, okay? Adjusted to their, adjusted to their
time, they were unbelievable saints. Okay? No, more, even more so than like Mao. Because, look,
looking at the entirety, like what Mao was able to achieve is insane, right?
What Mao was able to achieve was absolutely insane. He is the godfather of the People's
Republic of China. But it's obvious that there were so there were especially in the later years
there were tremendous excesses. Right?
Cheyenne Lennon did no cultural revolution. Yeah, exactly. Which by the way, there was a
conversation that I had, I won't tell you with who, where I was talking to them about
how China has this like unbelievable tendency for efficiency where like they have, you know,
like rating systems for even police officers, right? You have a bad experience with a cop,
you go onto an app and you literally tattle on the cop to the government. You say, this
was a bad experience. Boom. I'm rating him low. And I was talking to this person who
was telling me like, you know, that doesn't fucking work. And I was like, why can't we
have that in America? And he was like, I don't know, maybe because there was no cultural revolution,
Americans would literally abuse the Uber rating system like crazy.
There would never be like a like a normal process there.
It would get bricked in like a fucking week. And I was thinking, I was like,
like, yeah, but that's kind of true. It's got a true. I mean, look at fucking the other
views. You go to Japan, Google reviews are very important in Japan. America, Google reviews
mean nothing. Nothing at all. Okay. Also, the USSR didn't have a cultural revolution
and then they ended up with Pizza Hut. True, true, true.
Anyway, let's continue. Landlords were forbidden to evict their tenants
and the owners of urban land were obliged to sell vacant sites at low prices to anyone
planning to build a house," wrote historian Richard Gott.
Utility rates for electricity, transport and telephone services were slashed to make them
more affordable for the working class.
Real wages increased by about 15 percent and social services were quickly expanded to include
free schooling, healthcare, medicine, water, social security, burial services, and more.
In 1961, the government took massive strides to combat illiteracy and, according to historian
Paco Ignacio Taibo II, the results were spectacular.
707,000 people had been taught to read and write and only 3.9% of the population was
illiterate after just two years of revolution and just one mass campaign.
I feel like when it comes to judging the progress made by a developing country, some of us have
this tendency to compare it to imperialist western nations and then mock it for being
relatively behind. But that's not exactly fair, is it? These countries don't have centuries
of colonial plundering under their belts to thank for their wealth. They were on the
receiving end of that brutal structure all this time. Shouldn't we be comparing these
countries to A, where they started from, and B, their neighbors? In the case of Cuba, the
improvements were astonishing. Take the aforementioned health services as an example.
You can't do that because if you do that all of a sudden, if you adjust the timeline, if
you compare countries to their relative beginning position, all of a sudden you arrive at a
very scary truth.
That scary truth is that every communist revolution has led to unbelievable improvements.
You must never do that.
You have to compare them to countries that have engaged in colonial plunder.
And even then, only adjusted to the immediate circumstances, never to where those countries'
actual material conditions are from their own relative beginnings.
You can't do that.
However, as capitalism this like suicidal behemoth worsens contradictions in a way where it's
virtually impossible not to notice it to the average person when you look at like places
like Syracuse, Buffalo, you know, West Virginia and its entirety, you look at Gary, Indiana,
you look at all these different places that are on a downward trajectory for the past
couple of decades and then you look at a place like fucking China where you're like on maximalist
where you're like, whoa, those are the tier one cities.
Okay, you look at tier four cities in China,
you're like, they have an upwards trajectory.
How the fuck did that happen?
It becomes very clear that China is raising living standards
dramatically all across the board.
Whereas in America,
there is a downward trajectory virtually everywhere.
That's it.
That's it.
even that that relativity comparison adjusted to today's conditions and the trajectory is is
becoming noticeable. Who the fuck told you that Buffalo's on a downward trajectory? It's pretty
nice. Bitch, I've seen it. What do you mean? Prior to the revolution, things were atrocious.
Rural infant and maternal mortality rates were the second highest in Latin America,
noted professor of Latin American political economy, Helen Yafo. So when our annoying little friend
over here recites the claim that Cuba's infant mortality rate was actually already
low prior to Castro.
Here's the Wall Street Journal.
The Cuba that Castro inherited was developing but relatively prosperous and ranked third
in Latin America in doctors and dentists and daily calorie consumption per capita.
Its infant mortality rate was the lowest in the region.
He's operating on skewed data where the affluent parts of Cuba mess up the numbers and mask
the brutal inequality and suffering in the rural parts.
Yaffa goes on to write,
Some 80% of children in the countryside suffered intestinal parasites in 1959.
It was the number one cause of death, and 60% of the rural population was seriously undernourished.
Life expectancy in rural areas was 50 years, 60 nationally.
There was only one rural hospital, only 4% of rural Cubans ate meat, only 3% had bread,
less than 20% had eggs, only 2% had running water, 9% had electricity, and as Yaffa goes
on,
Through Enemy of Public Health, a report noted, was economic underdevelopment, feudal exploitation,
the Latifundia Plantation System, and its consequences.
Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, and the revolutionary government remedied this.
They established the rural medical services to provide those suffering in the countryside
with aid so that no one was left sick, dying, and forgotten anywhere in the country.
A free universal healthcare system was created, infant mortality dropped to under 10 deaths
per thousand live births by the 1990s and to under five deaths by 2017, a rate lower
than that of the much richer United States and 10 times lower than Cuba's closest neighbor,
Haiti. This represented a significant improvement over pre-revolutionary Cuba, where infant
mortality stood at 60 per thousand live births overall and 100 per thousand in rural areas.
Not to mention that maternal mortality was 120 deaths per 100,000 births, with only half
Both of all births in the country taking place in hospitals in the 1950s.
By the 1990s, 99% of births were taking place in hospitals.
Life expectancy has soared from nearly 60 years before the revolution, when there were
only around 6,000 physicians, mostly stationed in Havana, to nearly 80 years today, with
over 70,000 physicians spread across the entire country, as is noted in P.A.
Hired in America.
Pedro Rosses, how the workers' parliaments saved the Cuban revolution.
Thanks to a national immunization campaign that began in 1962, Cuban government was able
to radically combat disease.
Polio was eradicated that same year.
Malaria in 68, Diphtheria in 71, Miesel's in 93, Rubella in 95, and so on and so forth.
And when we compare Cuba's economic performance to that of its Latin American contemporaries,
substantially outperformed them, especially during the 70s and 80s.
To be specific, between 1970 to 1988, Cuba enjoyed an annual economic growth rate that
averaged 4.1 percent, while the comparable growth figure for Latin America during that
time was just 1.2 percent.
In the 80s, the rest of Latin America suffered an extreme debt crisis that caused the region's
overall GDP to plummet by almost 10 percent between 1981 and 1984, while Cuba experienced
an economic boom at that time, with an annual average growth rate of 7.3%.
It wasn't until Cuba's trading partners ceased to exist and the US Economic Warfare intensified
that Cuba began to suffer substantially, but we'll get to that later.
First, we haven't even touched on the social improvements in the wake of the Cuban Revolution.
Castro's government immediately banned all forms of racial discrimination.
unbelievably woke by the way, with one exception, the Cuban revolution was
incredibly woke. There was a social revolution, there wasn't like a cultural
revolution in the way that you know it existed in China, but it was absolutely
a social revolution as well. It had a lot of social elements. The only, the only
non-woke aspect of the human revolution was homosexuality and that's it. And it's so funny that like
racist, homophobic, queerphobic
Americans will regularly point to that to be like, dude, what about the gays?
What about the gays? And it's like really funny because like dude, what the fuck was America doing at the time? Okay?
What are you talking about? They were fucking far more woke than us far before we were, okay? Calm down.
Thank you for the 25 BONDS, USDAMSHITIFT!
In private and public life, prior to the revolution, Cuba had segregated beaches, clubs, schools,
and so forth.
The revolutionary government outlawed this while promoting gender equality and the integration
of women into the workforce.
Now if I were to tell you, my mostly western audience, that post-revolutionary Cuba also
boasts a unique form of participatory democracy, odds are a good amount of you wouldn't believe
And that's fine. Again, I'm not here to pretend that Cuba is perfect or that they have everything figured out, but rather to challenge your preconceptions
specifically about democracy and what actually constitutes it. In the West, particularly in the U.S.,
democracy seems to be something people do once every four years, where they go out and vote for one of two corrupt politicians from two corrupt parties.
All while their material realities steadily-
One party common estates have
have. Okay, here, I'll explain it to you. In the western world, in the western world,
in western liberal democracy, you have multi-parties, you have a two-party system, you have a multi-party
system, right? You have a parliamentary system, you have a two-party presidential system like
the one we have, like in a constitutional republic. And the reality is, it usually brackets
itself off into two different polls, right? It's true. You got the right poll, the right
coalition, you got the left coalition. Sometimes it's shepherded by the labor party, but it's
actually a neoliberal party, whatever. However, in one party governance, like in Cuba or in China,
there are some fake parties. It's irrelevant. It doesn't matter. It's symbolic. But they have
direct participatory democracy at the local level. And the parties have an infrastructure
where through past performance and efficiency you rise up through the ranks. It's actually a
in China specifically, it's like one of the most difficult tasks is to be a guy who works in local
government in the party. I'll give you one additional example, like I was watching this thing
where they were talking about how like in China, in certain rural areas, they have the name of the
party official outside of doors in one of their poverty eradication initiatives.
To say, if this party official whose name is outside of this door doesn't successfully eradicate the
poverty of this specific house, then they will no longer be reelected. They will never get,
they will never get a better standing within the party system itself.
It's unbelievably focused on efficiency. It's a very interesting, there's a very interesting
management style that is as close to meritocracy as you can get, but it's very bureaucratic.
And it blows the Western consciousness where people are like, well, what do you mean there's one
party? The reality is, even in the Western system, we have uniparty consensus on a lot of things.
things, right? Even if I were to believe that the multi-party or, yeah, it is a techn, yes,
yes, it is a technocracy, absolutely. You're not wrong. So, in the Western world, and I,
and I grew up in the Western system, I like the Western system, I like the facade of choice.
I believe that it's very good.
In the Western world, we technically have two poles, right?
Two different poles that seemingly are at odds with one another.
But there is a lot of consensus politics.
So it turns into the same one party politics that you normally would see.
This is part of the reason why, this is part of the reason why there are some marginal
differences between like the Democrats and Republicans in many respects. And if you're
bought into this system, you look at it and you think, well, how dare you, you know, even
those marginal differences have like ginormous consequences with one party over the other.
But that's a race to the bottom, right? It's a race to the bottom of which party is going
to be less cruel to you. That's why harm reduction narratives is unbelievably successful
or used to be unbelievably successful, right? The consensus exists within the system and anything
outside of that consensus is functionally barred, right? Even if it's not legally barred, it's
functionally barred. So the way that works is simply put, if we look at it from an outsider's
perspective in China, capital is controlled by the government. Capital is subservient to the
government. In America, the government is subservient to capital. So you have two different parties,
but nothing really changes. In China, you have one party, but everything changes all the time.
It is much more responsive and much more dynamic in many instances. This concept is not, I'm just,
this is descriptive, right? This concept blows westerners minds really. How can you say this?
like, this doesn't make any sense. They're not democratic, they're a dictatorship, they're
authoritarian, all this shit. But when you look at the results, when you look at the results of
China, regardless of the lack of a multi-party system within China, they have participatory
democracy at the local level within the party system. And not only that, but also they have
I've been unbelievably responsive, right?
Did you see the same explanatory TikTok
I saw about the subject?
No, I didn't.
So.
As I was saying, this has changed quite a bit in recent years.
Oh, the one aspect of consensus politics I was going to explain to you is the same exact
conversation that I had with Adam Mockler, also known as Adam Mockler at times and sometimes
known as Adam Mock-Lib.
I tried to explain to Adam the concept of consensus democracy, where we were talking
about the marginal differences between either party and how consequential it is to the average
citizens. However, from my perspective, and the perspective of a lot of regular Americans,
that there is a radical alternative beyond what two parties demonstrate as the only viable route.
The example I used was on healthcare. So Adam stayed within the consensus and said,
Well, Democrats want to fund ACA subsidies. If you take those ACA subsidies away, all of a sudden,
tens of thousands of people are going to experience, you know, medical debt and maybe even death
because they can't go to the doctor because they don't have any money. And I was like,
that's right. That's unbelievably cruel. But from my framework, there's an alternative out there
that's not a part of the consensus politics. The consensus politics in America is that healthcare
has to remain private. It's private. It'll get, at most, democratic party-backed subsidies
for private health care, and the Republicans will try to take those subsidies away and
deregulate the industry even further to allow them to draw even higher profits.
But there is an alternative out there. It's called socialized medicine, and yet neither
of the two parties genuinely push for socialized medicine. That's consensus politics. And for
my perspective, outside of the consensus politics, it's approximately 50 to 60,000 people every
single year that die due to lack of access to adequate healthcare because they are paywalled.
That's far more cruel than even the Democratic Party's alternative, and certainly unbelievably
cruel in comparison to the Republican Party's alternative. But that's consensus politics.
So this is why we say those who are a little bit more radical than the average or those who are a
little bit more advanced in their political education in comparison to the average self-identifying
liberal, we say, look, there's two parties in America, two major parties, but they have a consensus
on a lot of issues. They don't actually look for alternatives that are real solutions that can help
improve Americans' material conditions, the working class of material conditions.
Socialized medicine is outside of that consensus. Anti-imperialism is outside of that consensus.
Funding Israel is outside of that consensus. This is very, notice how difficult it's been
to get the Democratic Party to be responsive to the needs of the base.
The base doesn't want to continue the genocide. The base wanted to stop Biden.
They demanded it. Democrats refused to listen.
It was an election season two, it was the one time where they have to at least
fake being responsive and yet they decided to lose the election instead.
That's uniparty politics. That's consensus politics. Okay.
This is important to understand.
was this the video there's a video this is what you were talking about I thought you
were talking about the one-party system yes this is what I was talking about nailed the
front door of roughly 29 million homes in rural China it lists the family's names their
monthly subsidy and one other thing the name and personal phone number of the party official
whose career depends on getting that specific family out of poverty.
Between 2013 and 2020, China registered 89.62 million people across 132 counties into a
national poverty file system. Each household got a checklist. No worry about food or clothing,
plus guaranteed education, basic medical care, and safe housing. Roughly 3 million officials
were dispatched into villages to manage individual files.
In one village in Guizhou, a district official named Lu Wenxue arrived to find 137 poor households
and 52 officials already assigned to help them.
That's nearly one official for every three families.
If your assigned households didn't clear the poverty line, you lost promotion eligibility,
bonuses, sometimes salary.
Western anti-poverty systems count people in poverty nationally and distribute resources through agencies.
There is no name official accountable for that file clearing.
No one loses their job if a specific family is still poor next year.
But instead of just-
Also, Western poverty eradication initiatives?
And this sounds so insane when people-
Do you want to know how Western poverty eradication initiatives work?
It's not by literally improving the immediate material circumstances of like a poor family.
It's crafted around how many people you kick off of welfare.
That's precisely the reason why Republicans regularly make it harder for people to access
welfare and then they turn around and say, see, we eradicated poverty.
Isn't that fucking crazy?
In the West, Americans, in the American government, poverty eradication is determined by how many
poor people whose lives you objectively made worse.
We eradicated homelessness not by counting them as humans.
Yeah, I mean, it's pretty much that.
Just throwing resources at the problem,
China reformatted the problem itself.
Five indicators, a checklist, a name on the door.
The tool doesn't exist in the West,
not because we think it's a bad idea,
but because we never even thought of it.
And that's worth sitting with, regardless of what you think about the politics.
Oregon recently ran a pilot program in which homeless teams were given housing
and a stipend. It was wildly successful.
Almost all ended up leaving the program voluntarily because they had sufficient
income and were able to secure their own housing without assistance.
Wait, really?
Is that kicking off welfare a standard general metric or just a Republican metric?
No, it's a standard general metric.
Democrats do it too.
Who do you think was the OG?
Bill Bow Motherfucking Clinton, that's who.
Who do you think was the OG kicker of welfare recipients?
Bill Motherfucking Clinton, that's who.
That, my friends, is UNI-Party Consensus Politics!
There you go!
There you fucking go!
The decline over time, and it seems as though fundamental change never comes, no matter
how badly the populace wants it.
Take universal healthcare in the US, for example.
The masses want it, it's a popular demand, but no matter the color tie on the president,
it never comes.
As the saying goes, in America you could change the party, but not the policy.
In a place like Cuba, sure, you have one party that serves as an ideological vanguard, but
the policies can actually be changed and the masses can exert some form of control on a
grassroots level.
That's why I think this also literally stems from the two different mechanisms of authority.
Okay.
The overt authoritarian level of control that you see in a lot of these countries, and I'm
not even talking about like state repression, because state repression in Cuba is unbelievably
marginal in comparison to like fucking North Korea, which would have the highest level of
state repression or China that has a relatively high level of state repression. Cuba doesn't have
much state repression at all. There are people that get arrested. There are people who will
be detained, maybe thrown in jail for a little bit for engaging in counter-revolutionary behavior,
engaging in behavior that's obviously unstable, because it's in a constant state of war with
the largest hegemon on the planet, the largest, most powerful hegemon on the planet. So it's
understandable to exist under those like warlike conditions where you're going to be like, okay,
you're a spy for my enemy, right? Although weren't the larger purges in the beginning? No, their purges
were also totally overblown. As a matter of fact, there's a, I don't know if, if, overzealous talks
about it, but there's extensive reporting from declassified CI materials where they look at like
the state-sponsored executions that take place afterwards, after the Cuban Revolution.
And in comparison to the Batista regime's executions, it was literally nothing.
And the only reason why they had to do some kind of legal punishment was to literally satiate the
masses because they wanted to do decentralized violence to whoever they decided is a Batista
supporter, because there was a lot of revenge. There was a lot of demand for revenge. So the
masses were trying to straight up murder whoever the fuck they could get their hands on. That was
a Batista supporter because Batista was incredibly cruel, much, much more cruel than even the way
that the Americans have talked about the Cuban revolution. So yeah, the relative legal punishments
that came in the aftermath of the Cuban government after the Cuban revolution was was marginal.
Um, as Arnold August notes, Cuba is an example of democracy in motion, as opposed to the stagnant,
decrepit bullshit that takes place in the U.S. And in case you don't believe me, I'll quickly
explain how the system of participatory democracy- By the way, that was also the exact opposite of
the cultural revolution that took place. If you want to, if you want to look at a comparison,
If you want to look at a comparison between like decentralized violence that had tremendous excesses
The cultural revolution is a great example of that as opposed to like this was very localized very central or not localized
I'm very centralized the essential government force in the interim
Were the ones who dished out?
The the punishments for some of the worst most ruthless torturers and rapists and the like
looks in Cuba. Right off the bat it's worth mentioning that many Cubans reject the imposition
of multi-party systems and argue that before 1959, Cuba had political parties, but no democracy.
A direct rebuttal to the idea that the two are inextricably linked. But before we get
into that, we should probably lay some groundwork and talk about what democracy even is and
why it's important. Aviva Chomsky in her book A History of the Cuban Revolution has a great
succinct passage that perfectly describes how a fully fleshed-out democracy should look.
It goes like this.
In essence, democracy has to do with systems or mechanisms for the people of a society
to be involved in making decisions about how their society will function.
Political scientists distinguish between representative and direct democracy.
In a representative democracy, people participate in decision-making by electing representatives
to make the actual decisions.
In a direct democracy, decisions are made by some sort of collective assembly in which
all can participate.
And in Cuba, the latter reigns through direct citizen involvement, mass organizations, and
a unique electoral structure.
To be fair, though, to be fair, not to get all erm actually here, but due to the deteriorating
material conditions in Cuba as of like the last decade or so. I will say the participation
has diminished. The youth are completely checked out. Every single young Cuban that is born
on the island, their dream is to leave, get the fuck out of Cuba, okay? Their dream is
to just get the fuck out of Cuba. They don't believe that the government can ever fucking
protect them. They don't have any care or consideration for it. They've heard it so many fucking times
that it was the blockade, is the blockade, is the blockade, is the embargo, is the blockade,
they fucking despise that argument, because that's all they've known, right?
That's all they've ever known. And it's understandable, if all you've ever known is
death, destruction, poverty, and one government, you're going to think that it's the fucking
government that's played a major role here, you know? Hello, Hassanabe, I believe healthcare
should be privatized, you fucking mutt. What do you, Mr. Blue Cros or Mr. Blue Shield?
What the fuck do you mean? Okay, man. I assume it's a Canadian hog, right? It's got to be
is going to be a canadian hog
damn you read the chat fast
show mercy okay take a second off
but we found great shun witness all
ends are held at the municipal provincial and national levels and the
communist party of cuba the pcc does not nominate or run candidates money
plays no role in cuba elections no advertising no campaigning just
a one-page biography of each candidate posted publicly.
The general election process is divided
into two distinct phases.
Phase one covers municipal elections.
In small neighborhood districts,
residents gather in open assemblies
to directly nominate Kent.
Like saying, oh, you can only be a part of one party.
So how can this be democratic?
You have disagreements, robust disagreements
within the party system, okay?
So it's not like, it would be akin to like having a Nazi party, right?
Like you can't have a Nazi party, even though it exists, but you can't really have a serious significant growth of a Nazi party.
You can't have a Nazi party in Germany, for example, right?
You have to have the AFD as a substitute.
So it's kind of like that, where there are obviously not robust disagreement.
No, there is, there absolutely is a lot of disagreement within the Cuban system.
There are people who want to liberalize the economy.
There are people who are actually actively pushing to liberalize the economy.
Then there's obviously more resistant, uh, more restrained forces that don't want to do it.
And for the longest time, the forces that did not want any change is the reason why that change never came.
So even if it's a one party system, it's not like they're fucking aligned entirely and local needs are, uh, uh, primarily important.
Like first and foremost.
from among themselves by a show of hands citizens then elect delegates to
Once constituted these local municipalities. Yeah, it's like if DSA was a soul party if America was run by the singular
Solitary Democratic Socialists of America as a one-party state think about how many different tendencies exist
How many different caucuses exist within DSA you got the left caucus you got the right caucuses?
Oh my god. Oh my god, the fucking groundwork skies would be on the fucking bearable. I think
I mean no disrespect I love the ground works guys you know but I do I do think
that they would be they would be impossible to contend with they would
do oh my god
assemblies elect their own president and vice president from among their
ranks. Phase two covers national elections for the National Assembly of People's Power.
For these seats, candidates are proposed by candidates—
I mean, I would go so far as say the Democratic Socialist in America, which is not like a separate
party within our current duopoly, but will run candidates, even cadre candidates that
they have seemingly no control over, or a mumdani, or even candidates that they have actually
opposed in the past or have called out. I won't name any names on that front. And yet,
there is an unbelievable degree of ideological diversity within the DSA in comparison to
the Democratic Party, which literally ranges from AOC and Zoram-Amdani to fucking Joe Biden.
So are you stupid, commie, mutt, evil Chinese drone? Wait, what? No, don't ban him. We were
were having fun with him he was like please be merciful and I give him a
second off and he came back from that one second and said you're an evil
commie mutt I wanted to see what he would say I want to see I want to play
with this one this is a toy are you fucking stupid typical commie mutt
Chinese drone
he says actually Democratic that's a superpower yeah I wouldn't fucking call
that a superpower let's be real I have a have a difference in opinion on on how
I mean look I'm not gonna say anything I'm not I'm on the outside I'm agnostic
I'm org agnostic I'm in favor of all anti-capitalist initiatives okay
Marxist Leninist Maoist Third Worldists people who are maybe not Leroshites or
revcoms like unless it turns into a literal weird fucking sex cult or some
kind of like potentially Fed-funded initiative, like a record initiative, I'm usually going
to be in favor of it, okay?
Can it be a normal sex health?
The Black Panther Party was democratic centralism, CIA feared that law, not some decentralized
ass structure.
I think the CIA feared the Black Panthers, not because of their democratic centralism,
but because they were black.
They were black revolutionaries.
At a time when there was an ongoing civil rights struggle in the country.
Come on.
That's gotta be, that's gotta be, law.
much more than that. That's whiteness talking a little bit, I think. And even if you tell me,
even if you tell me that you're black, that's still a little bit of a white education that's
getting you to say that the CIA feared the black panthers because of their... I am black, well,
know and I fucking knew it. Yeah, it's white education. Come on, man. You think the CIA
was primarily worried about the Black Panthers because of their organizational tools? I mean,
no, that's not, that's not the major reason. It was because they were Black.
I know the CIA, yeah, they were black and they had guns and they were organizing in
black neighborhoods in a communist manner.
They were black, they were armed and they were communists.
Of course, that's like the trifecta.
You can't get more scary in the eyes of a racist government than those three things.
And they were drippy, which is, you know, probably also important.
Yeah, there were a black revolutionary organization with weapons.
Dude, they only killed Fred once he started organizing outside of black community.
It was when he became an actual threat.
That's not the fact that it was extremely racist, but it was definitely both.
Guys, none of that has anything to do with the internal structure of the organization,
though.
He's making it seem like the reason why the CIA doesn't do anything about the DSA is because
DSA is too decentralized and doesn't have one singular focus in its organizational structure
as opposed to the Black Panthers, who were not assassinated because they were Black,
but because of Democratic centralism. That's what the CIA feared the most. I don't think
it wasn't because they were Black. That is the central reason. I think it's both. Okay.
the CIA feared democratic centralism. I don't even disagree with your, your ideological
tendency. It's just funny to think that the CIA was like, listen, if these guys, if these
guys, the CIA, no, the CIA back then was that smart for the record. Yes, they were, they
They were that smart. They were way, way better equipped back then. They, they knew a lot
more than they do now. Then they, they knew crazy ball. How else could they infiltrate
these communities? Come on. Now a days doesn't take much. All you got to say is, uh, sweetie,
uh, sweetie, where was the pro-Palestinian crowd for black folk? That's what they say.
knows all black folk love is real that's what the CIA is doing nowadays back then they actually
had to have ball knowers.
They had to have real ball knowers that were like actually educated real ass Mormons.
Nowadays, motherfuckers are already engaging in record behavior on their own.
Brother, you will not believe exactly who said what you just said.
I'm crying. She should have said nevermind, fuck BLM after one black person.
Are you there?
What tears that throw trans women off roofs?
Did that ever happen?
My esteemed colleagues in the Democratic Party are so currently,
so currently so brainwashed with Islamist propaganda that they're unsure
if Hamas or fans of trans women, Lord help us.
You made a statement about trans women being thrown off roofs.
either happened or didn't which is it so you made it up I knew that but it's been
fun interacting lol I'm so glad I went to all those black lives matter process
really feel the solidarity diva
bro you can never come across like this if I ever catch you in the real world
treating allyship as treating solidarity I don't want to use fucking liberalized
language solidarity as a transactional thing I will fucking I will launch you
into the goddamn son this is why I always tell you okay this idea that this is
like supposed to be transactional I went to the micwise matter protest so now
you have to agree with whatever kind of islamophobic and idiotic pro-american
empire propaganda I am representing you're a fucking asshole okay what's
wrong with her jesus what is it wrong with that woman to be honest
interesting how our threshold for a better black people is one disagreement
yet she is still a rabbit's eyes when ninety five percent of them are rampant
the transphobic and think her existence is an abomination also the follow-up
law
you can let the load is that he chose to interact improved yourself to be a liar
Who's the stupid one? If I'd shown up in your mentions asking if slavery had happened, I'd imagine you'd be equally unwilling to take it seriously
Yeah, the difference is slavery did happen. Hamas never threw a trans person off of a rooftop
What the fuck are you talking about?
Yeah, just because you're a trans person doesn't mean that if you like hallucinate
Another one of America and Israel's enemies doing something to trans people doesn't change the reality that one did not fucking happen
the other did. Now you're undermining the existence of chattel slavery to win an argument against
a black woman who actually dared to question you. What the fuck? There are a lot of bigots like you
in our party. Oh my god. Gen ZCI, I can't read. Now is our time to organize. True, but also at
at the same time. I've talked about this so many times, but we already have solidarity
poison. American individualism is a moral rot that has baked the collective consciousness
of the American masses, okay? So, people already do record behavior on their own. You got the
Alches on the one side who will just be like, what you're doing, I disagree with slightly,
which is why you are my primary enemy. And then you got the Liberals on the other side
actively trying to undermine any kind of solidarity initiatives, constantly
disparaging any sort of movement, constantly fucking claiming that like the
real threat is actually to their left and not to the fascist developments
happening on the right. So unfortunately we have people behaving like little
cops on their own. There's a little J. Edgar Hoover in the minds of every
single fucking teeny-bopper. Every single goddamn zoomer has a little
J. Edgar Hoover working overtime in the back of their own minds, in the back of their own brains
that says, hmm, this must be a cynical person. Hmm, this person actually is not up to my standard.
This person has been found to be guilty in the in the public, in the court of public opinion
for a social crime. And therefore, they're done. That's why we say kill the cop in your brain,
Killed a little J Edgar Hoover in your brain.
Yes, inside of you there are two J Edgar Hoovers. Both are gay.
That's why all the Gen Z is gay. Or at least love cross-dressing just like J Edgar Hoover.
Alright, let's get this.
This is commissions made up of representatives from mass organizations such as trade union.
I maintain a day that we need more illiterate leptis. Y'all think that the moffos and storm
the winter piles can read me while Mono leptis spend all their time reading theory?
No, every successful revolutionary movement has been comprised of some of the most illiterate
and also with the most to gain from any kind of revolution and also some of the most literate.
It's always the urban academics and also those working in the farms, the peasants,
those who actually served in the military. It's always been that way.
And then everyone becomes literate, of course, that's one of the beauties of revolution.
So, by now you might be wondering, if the PCC isn't involved in elections, what's its purpose?
Well, it exists as an ideological vanguard.
Influenced largely by the ideas of Jose Marti, who believed in a single, unifying party to
defend Cuba against foreign domination, the PCC guides the overall political and economic
orientation of the country, but refrains from taking over administrative procedures or participating
in the electoral process.
Cuba's democracy in motion goes beyond voting and includes massive networks of civil organizations.
These organizations are embedded directly in the political system and have the constitutional
right to initiate legislation, stabilize the economy during crisis, and more.
For example, in the 1990s, after the USSR dissolved, over 80,000 workers' parliaments
collectively formulated strategies to reorganize production and save the Cuban economy.
The most telling feature of Cuban democracy, in my opinion, is the grassroots legislative
consultations.
In Cuba, major national policies undergo extensive grassroots deliberation and amendment before
they can be passed, as August wrote in reference to Castro's relationship with the citizenry.
This is groundbreaking in the annals of revolution, whereby leaders publicly exchange with the
people in mass meetings and a dialectic bond is created in order to make decisions.
A clear example of this principle in action is the 2008 Social Security Bill, which was
debated in over 85,000 local workers' assembly.
So you're saying that that's dead now, the youth, yes.
Participation in the Cuban governance process is just effectively dead at this point, especially
for the youth.
They don't give a shit.
They're completely checked out for the most part and want to get the fuck out of the country,
which is understandable because all they've known their whole lives is fucking worsening
material conditions, abject poverty, no job prospects, or even if they have a job, they
just can't fucking pay for food because there's tremendous inflation because of this patchwork
liberalized system that they currently have on top of everything else and because of the
lack of materials necessary for a competent agricultural system.
Can you explain why my Cuban American friends are so anti-Cuba?
I just said this is the whole video.
Expanded.
Expanded.
Citizens' input directly shaped and amended the bill until it reflected the wishes of
the masses.
As a result, pensions were recalculated in a way that was more favorable to workers
than what was originally proposed in the bill's first draft.
The 2011 economic guideline reforms were debated by about 9 million people in over 160,000
meetings which resulted in 68% of the guidelines being modified before being adopted.
And the list goes on.
My apologies if this part of the video feels dry or boring or too analytical, but I think
it's important to show how democracy can take a different shape than what we see in
the US and how it can produce more meaningful results.
In Cuba, there's a highly decentralized electoral system paired with massive ongoing public
consultations that give everyday Cubans veto power and the ability to amend the laws and
economic plans that affect them. In the U.S. by contrast you get to vote between Epstein's
friend in red or Epstein's friend in blue. And yes, there are still shortcomings with
the way things are in Cuba. That's why democracy is understood as a process and something that
is ongoing and in motion. Not just something that happens every 4th November where you
vote for the lesser evil.
In April of 1960, a U.S. internal State Department memo, colloquially referred to as the Mallory
Memorandum, boasted the subject line, the decline and fall of Castro, and it explicitly
stated that the majority of Cubans supported Castro, that there was no effect of political
opposition in Cuba, and that U.S. military intervention would only cause Castro to become
even more popular.
The memo goes on to explain how the U.S. would go about achieving its goal of destroying
Cuba so that its corporations can get back to plundering it the way they had for so many
years prior.
The only foreseeable means of alienating internal support is through disenchantment and disaffection
based on economic dissatisfaction and hardship.
Every possible means should be undertaken promptly to weaken the economic life of Cuba.
It reads,
Then it calls for denying Cuba money and supplies, openly fantasizes about falling real and monetary
wages, and explicitly seeks to induce hunger, desperation, and the overthrow of Castro.
Typically when we talk about Cuba, people love to blame communism as though it were the
primary cause of the island's suffering, supposedly doomed to fail because of its inherent futility.
But if communism were destined to collapse on its own, why did U.S. officials feel the
need to go all out like this?
And to be clear, everything laid out in that memorandum was eventually carried out by the
U.S.
Remember how earlier I mentioned that the Cuban Revolutionary Government carried out
land reform programs where vast tracts of often uncultivated arable land, hoarded by
foreign companies and the descendants of slave-owning Cuban elites, were redistributed to the peasantry.
Well, this is often cited as one of the main causes of economic tension between the US
and Cuba.
People point to this and claim that the evil communist dictator Fidel Castro stole property
from the US and the Cuban land-owning elite.
But in reality, Castro offered compensation for everything he expropriated, acted within
the legal limits of Cuba's own 1940 constitution, which allowed confiscation for the public
good and explicitly prohibited large land holdings, and he did so to reclaim land hoarded
by foreign companies to the direct detriment of the Cuban people.
If this sounds like some alien communist concept, I'd encourage you to look at your own country's
eminent domain laws, which allows the state to confiscate private property.
But no, but that's different because that's like capitalist style
Yeah
It's so funny because in many respects like even even the the control over the frozen capital for example when people talk about that shit
It's like
It is what is this fear and animated?

I don't understand why you sent that to me.

It's not even a bit, it's just my life, but whatever.
And then you have to send me this fucking stupid ass

it, man? I just don't listen to people. Alright, let's finish this video.
I'd argue that the situation in Cuba where the majority of arable land was held either
by foreign companies leaving much a bit idle or by some asshole who earned his acreage
by inheriting a pl—

with Fidel, and accepted his terms. The United States was the exception. It refused to negotiate,
shot the offer down, and claimed that Castro wasn't offering adequate compensation.
Well, then let's talk about how Fidel's government actually came up with this compensation
plan. He offered to compensate those whose property he expropriated with 20-29 year government
bonds carrying a 4.5% interest rate. The amount of compensation was based directly on the
The value the owners themselves had declared on their tax returns.
U.S. companies and Cuban elites were outraged by Castro's offer and perceived it to be an
undercut because they had been systematically undervaluing their land for years to pay
less in taxes.
All Fidel did was take them at their word about what their property was worth.
Another major catalyst for tensions between the U.S. and Cuba was the fact that Cuba
signed a lucrative trade deal with the Soviet Union in 1960 where the Cubans would trade
sugar for Soviet oil and goods.
In response to this agreement, American oil companies operating in Cuba and acting on
advice from Washington refused to process Soviet petroleum.
This move caused Castro to expropriate and nationalize the refineries.
Now, in case you think that Castro had no legal right to do this, you would be wrong.
As Salim Lamrani wrote in the Economic War Against Cuba where he touches on the legality
of Castro's expropriations, they were carried out in accordance with international law that
grants any nation the sovereign right to nationalize companies operating on its territory in exchange
for compensation.
And as we've already been over, when it came to Castro's nationalizations, his government
put forth plans to compensate those whose property was affected.
Other Western governments and companies came to an agreement with him.
The U.S. stubbornly refused to negotiate.
Quote, all of the nations affected by the expropriation process negotiated with the Cuban government
and accepted global compensation agreements, all with the exception of the United States.
The Eisenhower administration demanded, as a minimum standard, an indemnification, rapid,
adequate, and effective for the nationalization of U.S. assets.
However, this procedure is not recognized by international law, which prohibits a third
country from imposing conditions on sovereign nations.
That is to say, involving itself in that nation's internal affairs.
Anyway, this move by Castro led the Eisenhower administration to cut Cuba's sugar quota
and eventually impose a trade embargo on Cuba in October of 1960.
By 1961, the U.S. severed all diplomatic relations with the island.
Now, all of these specifics are important to know, but honestly, I'm of the opinion
that there was really nothing the Cubans could have done to avoid the wrath of the United
States government.
As the previously mentioned April 1960, Mallory Memorandum made clear, well before Castro
nationalized the oil refineries in June of that year, the U.S. goal was to deliberately
inflict economic destruction and hardship on Cuba in order to overthrow the new government.
CIA officials themselves acknowledge that. Yeah, they very clearly design the sanctions regime
in a way to rip apart the Cuban economy and destabilize it, but do it in a way where it was
was like invisible enough, that there was always plausible deniability, and that they
could simply say, oh, it's just the Cuban government's incompetence.
It was actually, unsurprisingly, Trump once again saying the quiet part out loud, when
he instituted a full blown oil blockade, which has greatly accelerated the demise, but also
made it impossible to deny, right?
Obviously if you are intelligent enough you can comprehend like oh it's pretty
clear like these guys can't do normal trade and and therefore I mean they can't
do normal trade because Kia said not okay stop said Don Hussein guys fucking
lock in man I can't even talk about you Carac Obama what the hell's going on in

and
the del car show
Joseph Staling? How brutal was Sadano Hussein? I have to.
How brutal was the card dictator Sadano Hussein? Often regarded as the Middle East's most
ruthless auto-cart, Sadano acquired power over the oil-rich country of Iraq through control
of the secret police in a shifting political situation. His numerous accounts of vehicle
rights violations include banning left-hand turns and closing down multiple lanes during
rush hour traffic, often for no reason.
Saddam was an early backer of Sir David Axelrod's Olimar plot to increase dependency on the
oil industry. Ultimately, he was overthrown by America during the Iraq war. When it was
alleged he had links to Al Qaeda.
Man, the cars five plot is crazy. I need to see more of this Jesus Christ. History, the
movie, true documentary, what the fuck? Why did someone attempt to assassinate the car
Why did someone attempt to assassinate the car Pope?
As head of the Catholic Church, his Role-Ness Pope Pinyin IV leads the car universe's 2.5
billion Catholics.
He was of course selected from the roliest of all the car brands, Chrysler.
In the second Cars movie, his Role-Ness travels around in the Popemobile as a direct result
of the 1981 attempted assassination of Pope John Hall the second. John Hall was attacked
by a linen, protesting the Pope's planned road trip to Turkey, and saw the Pope as the
driving force for many of the injustices suffered from the car-sades to take back the Roleland.
What?
Really was a Turkish guy.
How did the car dictator?
Kim Jong-un, the power weapons of gas destruction.
The Kim Jong-make has ruled North Korea for at least three different models, with the
most dangerous of them being the current ruler, Kim Jong-un.
His high-speed pursuit of acquiring nuclear weapons has caused many leaders in the westbound
world to call him a tire rent, but ironically it would be the westbound world who would
accidentally lead Vroom to getting a weapon of gas destruction. When North Korean spies
snuck a camera into the premiere of the op-and-laid biopic and used the film's step-by-step guide
on how to build a nuke. Now Kim Jong Vroom has become speed, the destroyer of Piston
That's... there's a Mao one?
How ruthless was the car dictator, Mao Zihong?
Often called the father of Communist Kachina, the Roe-Raisian Auto Cart, Mao Zihong has
towed more cars during his reign than perhaps any other.
This came as a result of his disastrous five-year lease policy, known as the Great Beat Forward,
forced many rural cars to commute to rapidly industrializing cities in Kachina for work.
Millions would gas away from these long commutes as the heavy rush hour traffic caused many
to wreck or inhale too much exhaust fumes.
But even worse than this was his infamous car troll, Revolution, would start to use
the young red cards to purge his political parking spot rivals through the execution of
order route 66.

I'm sad President Trump, it would be up to me and me alone.
And he's right about that.
What can I do as a member of Congress?
We'll be introducing with Senator Sullivan from Alaska, hard hitting
pre-invasion sanctions that would put tariffs and sanctions on China.
If they did invade Taiwan, I want China to know if you invade Taiwan, try to
take Taiwan by force. Here's what happens to your economy. The full weight and measure
of sanctions and tariffs from the United States will kick in on day one. That's what I want
to do to deter and invasion. As Trump said, President Trump, it would be up to me and me
alone and he's right about that. What can I do as a member of Congress?
going to be calling it Chai Wan soon the way things are going, okay Chinese Taiwan, they
call it Chinese Taipei. What I see in the near future is we're going to try to make
haste and move those TSMC factories over here to the United States of America and then allow
China to reunify without having any sort of military ambition, military conquest it seems
Cause, uh, kind of feels like we don't have a lot of motion right now, doesn't it?
It's crazy.
Yeah, they just, they don't give a fuck about nothing.
They just want the chips.
Okay.
They're like, as long as we move those goddamn chips elsewhere, the chip production facilities
elsewhere, we're good.
Yeah.
If you invade, we'll apply tariffs that hurt our own people more than ever.
Republicans always pulling the gun to their own them temple as a threat.
Yeah.
By the way, I know unpopular opinion, especially on Twitter, but like, yeah, I've been wrong
about this before with Russia, but like, you know, China's not Russia. Perhaps I'm wrong,
but there have been plenty of moments where China could have invaded Taiwan and have not
done so because it doesn't seem to be their goal at all. Okay. Perhaps I'm wrong. Perhaps
I'm wrong. Who knows? Who knows? Who knows? I might be wrong.
But so far, so far, this is, I mean, for the last, you know, multiple decades,
has been what America is claiming is going to happen, right? It's going to happen. It's going
to happen any moment now. There are moments away. There are moments away. And yet it hasn't.
it. Now we're getting to a point where what the fuck is Trump posting? I feel like he's
trying to break the brains of people, right? But why does the US even want to control over
Taiwan? Is there an actual strategic purpose? Is it because they want to act all tough? What
What do you mean? It's never to just act all tough. Of course, there's a purpose for it.
It's a landing pad for American intervention. It's a landing pad, if necessary, in the last option.
But it's also a point of American intervention.
In the grand scheme of history, Taiwan is settled by Han Chinese as a break-off region from the rest of China
China during the civil war, during the revolution that takes place, where the PRC is created.
The nationalist forces lose. They escape. They take a bunch of gold and they escape to the
island of Formosa. They settle there. They do a metric ton of violence when they do settle
there. And people act as though that is, I mean, in a broader, in the grand scheme of
history, looking at it with like, you know, century by century, it's a relatively new phenomena.
But of course, human life is finite and relatively short. So we just look at it as like the last
generation's politics and the last generation's politics has been no longer like a martial law
system in Taiwan, but at least some semblance of liberal capitalist democracy. To be fair,
to the KMT as well, they were, you know, they took a lot of notes from even the decentralized planning of the
the Communist Party as well
even though they were, you know, fairly violent
But nowadays people just look at it as like, oh no, these are a totally separate people, totally separate people that want to be separate that want independence now and
as far as I understand, I think most of
the the population in taiwan simply want status quo politics a lot of them work in
mainland china as a matter of fact one of them happens to be uh a relative of mine who does
work in mainland china but is from taiwan direct descendants of of uh the kmt
like the og
Anyway, so, um, yeah, it's interesting because the way people, the way people talk about
it is like liberals, liberals are the ones who are just like real aggro on this shit.
And I find it very odd, because we're already stuck in a war with Iran, and they're pushing
our shit in, okay?
But Iran is already dunking on us.
Russia had to invade Ukraine if they wanted to use serve control.
The Chinese are winning over more and more Taiwanese without military action, why torched
their own progress at this rate, when they are guaranteed to integrate in one to two
to three decades when they clearly are long-term oriented? Yes. Also, that's unnecessary friction.
It's risky. It's deadly. They don't want to do any of that. Why the fuck would they do any of that?
You know, the Chinese are not native to Taiwan. The indigenous are Austronesian. In fact,
all Austronesian people from Madagascar to Hawaii have their origins in Taiwan. Yes, I know, but
but that's not how things work.
It's now obviously the Han Chinese people that live there,
right?
Like that state, there was indigenous maskers
to place even before the last like KMT moved to Taiwan.
And now it is a tiny marginal percentage
of the population of Taiwan that is indigenous.
And it wasn't just the Chinese that massacred the indigenous population as well as the Japanese
too.
Anyway, Taiwan boring, TED Talk exciting, my Higa over Lindsey Graham.
I also made a statement that summarizes some of my thoughts with the hopes that like all
All of my left churpers will hopefully develop a better understanding of what I'm trying
to do.
I say, with our class consciousness and political education, the masses in the imperial core
will continue to self ID with the politics of liberalism, even if their desires for change
go far beyond most communists and socialists in the US went to their went on their ideological
journey because of Bernie's insurgent democratic socialist campaign in 2016 when he ran as
a Democrat against Hillary Clinton.
The electoral system is a viable route to reach the masses with an alternative.
This is what the money interests in both parties fear.
This is why they spend against their left flank and fight it tooth and nail.
We must continue helping people awaken to the reality of the system's design that creates
such inequality.
It is not the migrant workers, nor trans people, or Muslims or Jews, but the billionaires
and the parasitic forces of capital and its servants that are responsible for the deteriorating
material conditions."
Okay?
This dude wants the masses to have class consciousness.
Brian Griffin Well as an economist, the conclusion you
make at the end is factually incorrect.
Midwestern Marx, most Americans want a third party alternative.
Hassan is objectively behind the American people while lecturing everyone about how
they lack class consciousness.
Oh, god, ACP.
Hassan, the conservative alternative.
We have to make the rich pay their fair share.

you didn't awaken one day to the understanding of of the works of of

and and many others
you went on that journey because something had to to insight that in you
Okay, and that something was an insurgent electoral campaign within one of the two parties.
That's it.
You are just them sock now, honestly.
Most leftist idea veterans in, more leftist ideas, veterans in the Senate.
Again, responding to, I don't know what, really.
Not necessarily what.
But Lamal, am I started with growing up in a union family?
Sure.
Like, a lot of people that have these like tiny third party initiatives that they try
to like start from the ground up.
It's great.
glad that you're working to develop an alternative. Okay. I'm glad that you're working to develop
an alternative. However, I mean, the ACPs numbers are at like 350 apparently, right?
350 people total. That's like a, a, a DSA chapter in one major city, a smaller than
DSA chapter in most cities. New York DSA is 14,000, right? DSA total is numbering now at 100,000 plus.
Right? When you talk to us, fix that fucking face. I don't know what that means.
Like, what's really frustrating about this process is that like, they are able to,
I mean, you might disagree with them. You might think they're bitches. You might think that they're all fucking liberals or whatever
but like
They actually do have motion and and the way that they've been able to generate that membership number is
Because
Bro, even Phillies DSA's 8x that exactly but the reason why they've been able to generate that is because they run candidates
And then their candidates win and then their candidates present themselves as popular alternatives to whatever the fuck the Democrats are
currently doing. And then people go, you know what? I want more people like that. I'm going to join
my DSA. DSA is also an unbelievably important tool for unlocking class consciousness in people and
engaging them with the tools necessary for them to better communicate their desires,
theory, political education. This is what unions used to do as well. They don't anymore because
unfortunately a lot of our unions have been corrupted by corporate entities and are an
Electioning electioneering machine for the Democratic Party and now the Teamsters are seemingly at the national level turning into a machine for the Republican Party for some fucking weird reason, but like
ACPS a leech of these is a few cool folks in the DC channel running who are also an ACP or whatever
The point is the point is
is, like, people have different attitudes, but perhaps maybe the same fucking goals,
okay? But if you're spending all of the finite time you have on God's green earth trying
to chip away at other organizations that you are holding responsible, like whether it be
the dsa or whether it be someone like myself if you're like oh i would have an organization
numbering in the millions if it wasn't for a fucking twitch streamer then you're an
unserious person okay sorry this probably hurts to hear because you're trying your very
best and you think oh what is this fucking asshole saying from his ivory tower the fuck
do you know about organizing you're just a rich asshole who streams on twitch don't do
anything and you tell the Democrats, right? But it's cope. If you think I'm your
impediment to unlocking class consciousness in this country, you one,
fundamentally misunderstand my role and my goal, and two, you're coping. You're
coping because your methods are currently not working that well.
It's that simple.
My god relevant video critique of Western Marxism. Let's take a look at this video
It's possible by the generous support of my patrons.
I'd like to join them in helping grow this channel.
You can do so at the link.
I'll let you go cause you a Corvette.
Okay, you stop below.
For Karl Marx, theory was never an abstract exercise detached from practice, but a guide
to concrete political struggle rooted in material conditions.
However, over time, his emphasis on praxis, the unity of theory and revolutionary action,
has become a key point of disagreement
within the Marxist tradition.
Today, nowhere is this tension more sharply expressed
than in the great surrounding Marxism-Leninism
and Western Marxism over the political
and economic nature of the People's Republic of China.
On the one hand, Marxism-Leninism has largely developed
among the global south, which has used this theory
as a guide to revolutionary action,
and in many cases, has even seen Communist parties
capture state power.
In the imperial core, however, Western Marxism
largely remains a creation of the Bourgeois Academy,
rejecting the theory of Marxism-Leninism
and the practice of actually existing socialist states.
Instead, it seeks to synthesize Marx with Freud, Heidegger,
or any number of non-Marxist eclectic thinkers
to expand the horizons of Marxist thought beyond Lenin.
This leaves it not only poorly equipped
to wage socialist struggle,
but also renders it incapable of analyzing countries
like the People's Republic of China.
Deng Xiaomei.
As a historically grounded project of socialist construction.
This video therefore attempts to intervene in this gap by arguing that a serious Marxist
analysis must return to Marx's original problem of not only interpreting the world but politically
acting to change it.
In doing so, we will critically examine the limitations of Western Marxist approaches
to actually existing socialism and re-center the question of socialism with Chinese characteristics
within a Marxist-Leninist framework.
Throughout the 1980s, actually existing socialism entered a period of profound crisis.
In the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev's reforms, combined with mounting economic, political,
and military pressures, culminated in the collapse of the Soviet bloc in 1989 and the
illegal dissolution of the USSR in 1991.
At the same time, the People's Republic of China faced its own upheavals, the legacy
of the Cultural Revolution, the political crisis following the death of Mao Zedong,
and the uncertain transition towards market reforms under Qian Yun and Deng Xiaoping.
To many observers, these developments signaled not only the failure of socialist states,
but the obsolescence of Marxism-Leninism as well.
This sentiment was expressed in Francis Fukuyama's End of History thesis, which, although analytically
weak, gained global prominence by proclaiming the definitive triumph of capitalism in the
global class struggle, functioning as capitalism's eulogy for socialism.
How'd that take age, Francis?
I mean, he admits it was bunk.
It's really interesting because it's like such an important work for like 99% of the
most annoying fucking liberals that still operate on the assumption that
history has ended liberalism one it's over liberalism is permanently the
monoculture and they just refuse to recognize that the guy who said it also
the guy who said it also now disagrees with the initial thesis but this
narrative began to unravel after the 2008 2009 global financial crisis where
two things started to become clear. First, the crisis exposed the recklessness of financialized
capitalism and the class character of the state's response. As millions of working-class Americans
lost their homes, jobs, and their life savings, the very institutions responsible for the collapse
were rescued through massive public bailouts, rewarded with bonuses, and retained decisive
influence over economic policy. The crisis revealed not only systemic instability,
but a profound indifference of ruling elites towards the social consequences of their recklessness.
Second, the crisis highlighted the resilience of the Chinese system.
While Western Europe saw its average GDP contract by 5% in 2009, go through a slow recovery process,
and then drop another 6% in the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.
You'd assume that this is good, Turkey's GDP growth rate being at 4%, as though that economic activity translates to a better economy for the everyday Turkish people.
God, the GDP is so ass. China maintained roughly 7.5 annual GDP growth until 2019 and then even saw a modest 2% growth throughout 2020.
This contrast between these two systems signaled to many that regardless of how China's economic system was labeled,
it appeared to possess institutional mechanisms that insulated it from the financial contagion that American finance capital was spreading to the rest of the world.
Turkey's much richer than it was 10 to 20 years ago, yeah. It doesn't translate to like overall wealth for the average person though, that was the point I was making.
At the time, however, China remained a contentious case for many on the left.
Still relatively underdeveloped, marked by environmental degradation, and recognized
as the workshop of the world, it did not conform to western idealized visions of socialism.
For those seeking a pure socialism, for now, China's model left much to be desired.
For the most part, Western Marxists were dismissive of China.
However, there did remain a select number of Marxist-Leninist thinkers in the West
who were able to comprehend the socialist logic behind China's reform and opening up.
Domenico Lucerdo, for example, recognized in 2010 that China's market was...
This fun-mean learning?
I don't think so.
Yes, it does.
...forms were part of a long-term socialist trajectory rather than a capitulation to capitalism.
Since then, China's political and economic system has continued to attract interest and
has gained the attention of many foreign observers, sharpening debate around whether or not China
is a truly socialist system.
The division between Marxist-Leninist and Western Marxist perspectives on China can
perhaps be best understood within the framework of the classic debate between the scientific
socialism of Marx and Engels and the idealism of various utopian socialists.
Vladimir Lenin later identified these utopian tendencies in what he called left-wing communism,
marked by a preference for ideological purity over strategic compromise and concrete analysis.
More recently, the great Marxist scholar Michael Parenti described a similar tendency in his
remarks on pure socialism. He says that,
The pure socialists support every revolution except the ones that succeed.
When reality proves different and more difficult, some on the left proceed to condemn the real
thing and announced that they feel betray-
Yeah, we didn't fucking weep bozos.
Aw, China's not real communism.
China's not real socialism.
Cuba's not real socialism.
Real socialism has never been implemented.
Paid by this or that revolution.
The pure socialist sees socialism as an ideal that was tarnished by communist finality, duplicity,
and power cravings.
The pure socialists opposed the Soviet model, but offered little evidence to demonstrate
that other paths could have been taken, that other models of socialism could have taken
hold and worked better.
Today, this tendency is often referred to as Western Marxism.
Western Marxism conforms to this utopian tradition of ultra-left purity fascism by
distancing itself from revolutionary praxis.
It frequently reduces Marxism down to a critique of capitalism, while stopping short of offering
any type of coherent strategy, institutional model, or policy program for moving beyond
it.
It offers no examples to emulate either past or present, no agreed upon principles, no
coherent or tested strategy, just a vague belief in socialism from below and proletarian
internationalism.
Sorry about r slash ultra left, no, that's not even the ultras that say that, that's
fucking, that's left comms.
Combs will say the resistance of Palestine is bourgeois in nature, and therefore they
refuse to support it. Okay. It's a real, how about no nation-states ideology? Like the
the nonsensical position when people will be like, well, don't you think trying to develop
an ethnic enclave for the Kurds is inherently reactionary? You know, I thought you didn't
want an ethno stays like okay well they're fucking stateless for the most part you know what do you
fucking want they invest all of their hopes in the notion that an as-yet-unrealized third weight
i've never seen a lefkamp say that no i have seen uh i've seen that on to socialism will spontaneously
emerge at this advanced and decaying stage of monopoly capitalism its slogan neither washington
nor Moscow, now recycled as neither Washington nor Beijing, expresses this retreat from reality
very well. Rather than engaging with the real historical processes of building towards a
socialist project, they seem to believe that history will somehow deliver a new model capable
of transcending both monopoly capitalism and actually existing socialism.
In this way, Western Marxism hardly offers anything more than a hollow politics that
leads to a dead end in revolutionary praxis.
Western Marxism tends to treat the case against China's market socialism as self-evident.
If an economy contains private ownership, wage labor, or market exchange, according
to them, it must be capitalist. And therefore, literally every liberal does this by the way.
Every liberal that like, maybe read a little bit of socialist literature will be like arm.
You say, sweetie that China is a transitional socialist state, but guess what? They're still
private enterprise it's like okay yeah well let's do that then let's do that I
want that how about that's a good that's a better the way to organize society
let's just move in that direction then fuck it yeah it's capitalism let's do
Chinese style let's do socialism with American characteristics let's call it
Look at that.
China is capitalist, plain and simple.
For Western Marxism, socialism is defined in purely idealist terms.
A system of direct worker control over production.
Political power exercised through direct democracy.
The abolition of markets, money, and class relations altogether.
A society freed from all forms of exploitation, where it becomes possible to hunt in the morning,
fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, and criticize after dinner.
By this standard, the People's Republic of China clearly falls short.
However, what Western Marxism tends to overlook is the fact that China did initially strive
towards this type of pure socialism during the Maoist era.
Throughout the Cultural Revolution from 1966 to 1976, efforts to prioritize ideological
Transformation often came at the expense of developing the economic base.
In the name of egalitarianism, workers and peasants were elevated to positions of authority
based on class background rather than technical competence, while experts, technicians, and
urban intellectuals were marginalized, leading to widespread inefficiencies that constrained
productive development.
In fact, economic problems, namely the persistence of poverty, became so acute that the malice
Maoist Gang of Four attempted to redefine socialism as a type of common poverty, declaring
that it is better to be poor under socialism than rich under capitalism.
However, addressing the material needs of the people through the level of ideology or
consciousness in this way would only go so far until qualitative social and economic
transformation became unavoidable and a pivot towards something new became urgently necessary.
The party's pivot away from the Maoist gang of four was largely marked by Deng Xiaoping's
return to the party and his declaration that socialism is not poverty.
Socialism means eliminating poverty.
Unless you are developing the forces of production, you cannot say you are building socialism.
In fact, Deng Xiaoping repeatedly emphasized that market socialism was necessary to proceed
down the-
To be ridges, to be glorious.
Socialist road, and that it did not represent an attempt to abandon socialist ideals altogether.
In 1979, he clarified that, if we did not adhere to socialism, if we did not adhere
to the leadership of the Communist Party, if we did not adhere to Marxism-Leninism
and Mao Zedong thought, China would inevitably become chaotic.
He even explicitly rejected Soviet-style de-stalinization and reiterated his commitment to Mao Zedong
thought in the early 1980s.
To be fair, different strokes for different folks. Mao Zedong was seen as like the North
Star in every stage of development in Chinese transitional socialism. The reason why is
because like even if like Deng Xiaoping's reforms and market liberalization initiatives
or marketization initiatives rather were to work, he would also have to really beef
up how much he loves Mao Zedong on the other side because of the tremendous amount of reverence
that Mao Zedong had. This is a thing that most people don't understand about China or the Chinese.
Everyone outside of China in the Western world especially would be like,
you like Mao Zedong? He was a ruthless murderer. And it's like everyone in China is like, that's the,
that's, you know, that's the godfather of the modern nation. Like the fuck are you talking about?
It's so funny. Like, there's, I can't think of another equivalent where the argument made by
the West is he killed so many Chinese, he killed a hundred billion Chinese, right? They'll be like,
he killed a hundred, he killed tens of millions of crows and a hundred billion Chinese in tow.
And it's like, dog, go ask the descendants, like go, I mean, or go ask the Chinese people how they
feel about Mao Zedong. Like Americans act as though, like, it's not like he, they don't
even say like, oh, Mao Zedong killed other people. He's saying he killed Chinese, right?
What the fuck is it that Chinese love him so much, at least with de-stalinization due
to the nature of the excesses during the Stalin period, post, post World War II period, especially.
like, there was at least some enmity internally within the USSR. So there was at least a reasonable
amount of people that were saying like, yeah, de-stalinization is good. Whereas with Mao
Zedong, I don't think, I mean, they've had the exact opposite effect, where in times
of in periods of crisis, or when there's like significant changes taking place in society,
they hold extra reverence towards Mao Zedong as though he's the North Star.
The more you stray away from Maoist principles or Mao Zedong thought, the more you hype up
Mao Zedong, which is exactly what Deng Xiaoping did, exact opposite of post-Stalin USSR.
They overdid the destalinization too?
Sure.
When he assured that, we will not do to Chairman Mao, what Khrushchev did to Stalin.
In 1992, he further explained that planning and market forces are not the essential difference
between socialism and capitalism, and that market reform was undertaken not to abandon
socialism but to develop it.
The reform and opening up was therefore not a counter revolution or a betrayal of socialism,
but the outcome of trial and error emerging from earlier failed.
Yep, Joe, because I can explain Dung without, Deng without Mao, and vice versa.
There is no Deng without Mao, and there's no Mao without Deng.
Or there is no modern China without both of these figures, rather.
There is a, you know, like every, everything that happened in, in Chinese development
happened in succession.
It's the, it's the bow joke.
Okay.
In front of you are five dumplings.
Okay.
You eat the first dumpling and then you eat the second dumpling and you eat the third
dumpling and on the fourth dumpling you say wow I'm full is it the fourth
dumpling that made you full could you have just rushed to the fourth dumpling
and just eaten that and feel full all the same no you had to have the dumplings
that came before it attempts to create a socialist society completely free from
exploitation after Mao the Communist Party had determined that earlier attempts
to achieve socialism were hindered by the fact that China rest.
Thank you Biden for giving us Trump. I mean, there is also truth to that. Absolutely. But
you also have to remember, yes, this is successive regression happening at the hands of capitalist
bourgeois parties. Parties change, but societal or the politics doesn't change at all. So
Yeah, if we were to look at the real ideological differences with waves rather than one party
swapping power over to the other, I would say that the period of changes that took place
in America that were incredibly important happened under FDR.
And then post FDR all the way until Ronald Reagan, there is a, a, a domineering impact
of, you know, social democratization, social democracy in America in the way that you experienced
in like Europe close to that, right?
Um, obviously never to that same degree.
There were plenty of, of parts of the welfare apparatus that were still unbelievably decentralized.
like the New Deal Democrats dominated American politics post New Deal. Okay, until Carter,
yes. Carter is the starting turn, the turning point towards neoliberalism, but Reagan is
when it completely changes, completely shifts. And now you have the Democratic party post
Reagan following the Republican whims.
Okay.
Post Reagan, Democratic parties have followed the Republicans. The Republicans have been
leading this country since Ronald Reagan in their dominant attitude, in their dominant politics.
Although Carter marks that change, for sure, it becomes undeniable that this is a reactionary
Republican country post Reagan, and it is perhaps best apparent with every single Democrat
that has come post Ronald Reagan.
There's a reason why even Nixon is responsible for the development of the EPA and numerous
other things. No such initiatives have taken place on the Republican side since then. Think
about it. Richard Nixon at a point, Institute of Price Controls obviously was a period of
tremendous economic instability, but he did that nonetheless. He built the EPA. There's
a bunch of shit that he did. I can't think of a Republican president post that era that
has ever built upon additional government agencies or built new regulatory agencies rather
than destroy the existing ones.
And the Democrats have contributed to that as well.
Bush made DHS, buddy.
I'm talking about regulatory agencies, okay?
The Department of Homeland Security is a mutated behemoth that is comprised of all of these
other pre-existing agencies that was designed to surveil America's citizens, okay?
That's very different.
Political Errors of the United States.
Yeah, New Deal Democratic era dominated by a coalition of socially conservative Democrats
based in the South and economically progressive Democrats based in the greater Rust Belt
region. The Sun Belt on the West Coast of the United States, this marks the beginning
of the party switch liberals in the North and Urban City slowly flip Democratic.
1969, the present divided government era. I don't think that's correct. That's my assessment
is different than this is what I'm trying to say.
I think post Reagan is the, the, I guess if you want to call the, the FDR, uh, uh, post
FDR, the New Deal, uh, Democratic era, I would say post Reagan is the Reaganomics era, neoliberal,
the period of late stage capitalism, neoliberalization in the United States of America.
you can call it the unitary executive theory era. I don't know. There's many different
things that you can say.
Yeah. Six party system describes Susan that began in 1980s, known for in the period which
Republicans use the Southern strategy to realign Dixie grass from the South into party, which
began in 64 when Goldwater became the first Republicans is reconstruction, the win in
the deep South. Although he lost the overall South and finalized in 1984 when Reagan kept
south permanently republican this allowed the party to gain dominant controller of the presidency
after nineteen sixty eight or nineteen eighty though dominant control of congress would remain
in democratic hands because of the southern seats in congress remaining a solid democratic block
until the role of his flip the congressional south in nineteen ninety four republican revolution
because of this realignment lag the first half of this party system is heavily dominated by ticket
splitting i.e. nixon democrats and reagan democrats then a second realignment occurred among
centrist independent voters in the north and west who supported johnson john b anerson and
Ross Perot in the Democratic Party from 1996 to 2008, allowing the Democrats to make president
of the presidency competitive. This half of the party system is dominated by polarization.
Seventh party system is the populist era.
Some political science suggests a new party system, a seventh party system may be emerging
in the United States, especially, no, it's not. Donald Trump is a Reaganomics guy through and
through. We are absolutely still in the post Reagan universe. He is an accelerated Reaganist.
Okay. This marks a big shift in American politics that's coming to its logical,
is coming to its logical end, which inevitably will lead to fascism. Okay. But like fascism in
in the way that you fully understand it. What is this, Glendys in my goat? Journalism
2026, the future is not Chinese. This guy, listen, Glendysin gets to have so much face
time with Mersheimer and all of the other goats. I love this guy. I watched so much

What is this? You're an international institution?
What?
Where did they bring me up or something? New intelligence support on Cuban drones draws a rock comparison from the left.
Critics warned a manufacturing concern. The reaction from the left was swift, with commentators
Sampakar writing on exit the report was manufacturing concern for war, suggesting the intelligence
may be selectively framed. In the lead-up to the 2003 Iraq war, the Bush administration
asserted Saddam Hussein possessed active chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons programs.
These claims were presented as urgent, definitive, and backed by US intelligence agencies. After
the invasion. The Iraq survey group found no stockpiles, WMDs, and many of the intelligence
assessments were later shown. Cuba has never been a threat to us. Piker wrote it's only
threat was being a successful alternative of a country that fought and won its own sovereignty
and dignity. We starved them for that and never stopped former Obama senior advisor,
Dan Pfeiffer, echoed those sentiments, writing on X real Iraq war vibes here, classified
intelligence share with reporters that sell a war to a skeptical public. Might as touch,
editor-in-chief, Ron Philip, uh, Philip Kowski, a lifelong reporting in a return who turned
Democrat 2021 also weighed in on the Axios for writing on X pretext for the next war same pretext
for the last war. So some old story, same old song and dance. It's true. Wait, you said this
like two hours ago and it's already in Newsweek, baby. All the news that's fit the print. Anyway,
what the fuck was I talking about the different political errors in American politics? Oh,
it's because we're talking about China. On a remarkably underdeveloped economic base.
Therefore, the fundamental principle guiding the pivot towards market socialism was the
necessity of overcoming material scarcity by rapidly developing the forces of production.

the market could outweigh the risks so long as the Communist Party maintained a firm grip
on the power of the state and prevented the national bourgeoisie from transforming its
economic power into political power.
By these means, and these means only, could the Communist Party ensure that China would
continue the long march down the socialist road even though it was opening space for
markets and private investment?
But rather than engaging seriously with China's historical development, Western Marxism often
reduces its trajectory to a simplistic narrative, that Deng Xiaoping forcefully pushed capitalist
restoration under the guise of socialist language.
But this account merely substitutes moral judgment for materialist analysis, where complex questions
such as labor relations, state policy, and internal contradictions all become collapsed
into vague labels like authoritarianism, which explain very little while foreclosing deeper
inquiry.
Meanwhile, the successes of actually existing socialism, if Western Marxism identifies any
at all, are attributed abstractly to the people, while failures are assigned to the state,
producing a one-sided and undialectical account of China's economic development.
Some of the more charitable interpretations within Western scholarship attempt to explain
China's development as a hybrid between socialism and capitalism, or a mixed economy, similar
to the Scandinavian model.
However, this comparison also lacks nuance and obscures fundamental structural differences
between these two systems.
Much like the vague use of the term authoritarian to equate communism with fascism, the label
mixed economy often collapses important distinctions between Western capitalism and socialism
with Chinese characteristics into a false equivalence.
Under the mixed economy model of the imperial core, welfare states emerged in the post-World
War II era as a response to the contradictions of capitalism.
The working class would temporarily receive a large portion of the surplus product, but
the bourgeois class would continue to control the state and therefore determine the nature
of social reform altogether.
These economies were deemed mixed insofar as they contained capitalist elements, such
as private control over the commanding heights of the economy and state, but socialist insofar
as they had universal healthcare, maternity leave, a pension system, and other redistributive
policies and mechanisms.
In fact, as these progressive reforms were introduced, much of the western working class
and socialist movement began to shift more towards a type of socialist politics that
no longer fought for state power, but merely fought for progressive reforms under the bourgeois
state.
However, in the People's Republic of China, things are structured differently.
Emphasis tends to focus less on the size of the welfare state as a measure of social progress,
and much more on the question of who holds political power over the state.
As disciplined Marxist Leninists, the Communist Party of China has always understood that
But unless the proletariat captured state power and suppressed the political and military
might of the ousted counter-revolutionary bourgeoisie, any reform won by the workers was only temporary.
If the state remained a dictatorship of capital, the working class would forfeit its political
sovereignty and democracy would become a privilege of the propertyed few.
Therefore, one of the defining features of the Chinese system is the dictatorship of

The proletariat, in the form of a one-party state, which allows the Communist Party to
prevent the economic power of capital from transforming into political power.
The party maintains its control through aggressive anti-corruption campaigns, people-oriented
market regulations, and long-term plans for economic outlook.
The Communist Party's dominance over capital and refusals to become corrupted by it has
enabled it to direct economic development towards socialist ends rather than the private interests
of oligarchs.
The mistakes that Western Marxism makes in its analysis ultimately boil down to the concept
of the dictatorship of the proletariat.
Their analysis fails to recognize the difference between private ownership under capitalism
versus partial privatization under socialism, which they mistake as parallel phenomenon.
However, the difference is that the capitalist state operates according to the logic of capital,
while socialist states, having broken from the influence of capital,
can orient themselves towards long-term people-centered development.
Sometimes retreats in the development of socialism are necessary,
sometimes mistakes are made, but so long as the dictatorship of the proletariat maintains political control,
it has the power to determine when and how to further advance down the socialist road.
Western Marxism often treats state-owned enterprises in and of themselves as a defining feature of socialism.
State-owned enterprises can provide essential goods and services such as healthcare, infrastructure, and education, independently of profitability, and are therefore seen as a mechanism for decommodifying goods and services and distributing them as social rights.
From this standpoint, Western Marxist critics argue that the expansion of markets, wage
labor and private capital, alongside the retrenchment of certain welfare guarantees,
signals a shift not only towards capitalism, but even neoliberalism.
However, this perspective tends to overlook how the state has frequently retained decisive
influence through its regulatory authority and control over corporate governance.
The four following points highlight the essential difference between the Chinese economic system
to that of the West.
First, despite privatization, the state continues to maintain control over the commanding heights
of the economy.
The commanding heights of the economy refers to the strategic sectors upon which the functioning
of society depends – finance, energy, telecommunications, transportation, utilities, and defense.
These industries form the structural foundation of the economy, and disruption in any one
of them can generate cascading effects across the entire system.
In the People's Republic of China, the state retains full ownership over core strategic
sectors such as defense, nuclear industries, major infrastructure, and banking.
Some areas within the commanding heights of the economy have undergone partial marketization,
allowing for limited forms of private investment.
This does not imply a loss of state control, but that private capital operates within the
boundaries set by the state, often restricted to minority shareholder stakes or specific
forms of private partnership.
For example, in the energy or telecommunications sectors, state-owned enterprises coexist
with private firms, but the state ultimately exercises decisive authority through regulation,
pricing power, and ownership structures.
In some cases, the state holds a majority of the shares of private companies, but in
other cases, it maintains effective control through a minority shareholder stake, which
still enables it to determine corporate governance and strategic direction.
This is similar to capitalist contexts, where figures like Jeff Bezos can control firms
like Amazon without a majority share of ownership.
Billionaires in the capitalist West learned long ago that they only require about a 40%
and a company to determine its Board of Directors.
The Communist Party of China learned from these and similar examples to implement state
control over industry while still allowing investment and markets to develop.
Enterprises that may appear private on the surface are often embedded within a broader
framework of state direction and long-term planning.
The key issue regarding socialist development is therefore not simply a question of private
versus public ownership in a narrow legal sense, but how the state situates itself as
the key decision maker in all areas of the economy.
Yes, it's a fucking cliche at this point, but in China, the government controls capital.
In America and largely in the western world, capital controls the government.
That's it.
One party, many changes.
Two parties or multiple parties, no changes.
decide. Enabling it to coordinate. And for the record, I'm not saying that that's like the best
system possible. I'm not saying that at all. It's looking at results. And plan long-term strategic
outlook and adapt to systemic crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. Second, the state mitigates
public losses by privatizing technological research and development. Public attention tends to focus
on the small number of tech firms that succeeded and have generated enormous wealth, while
overlooking the vast amounts of capital that have been lost in failed ventures.
With an estimated 80-90% of tech startups failing, high-tech investment is inherently
risky and can produce significant losses.
Yet technological innovation remains essential to the development of the productive forces,
a central goal of the Communist Party.
In the People's Republic of China, this conundrum has been managed through a pragmatic division of roles.
Rather than exposing public funds to high levels of speculative risk, the state has encouraged the national bourgeoisie to take on this function.
However, in order for private investors to accept these risks, the potential for outsized returns must exist.
Otherwise, why invest in such risky ventures?
The Communist Party has therefore allowed for private investment and the emergence of a billionaire class through an open market in the tech sector.
This arrangement reflects a strategic compromise where private capital is permitted to accumulate wealth, but only on the condition that its activity contributes to national development and aligns with broader social objectives, such as developing the forces of...
If the argument is the state ownership of state control over capital equates equal socialism,
I feel like that leaves holes for countries like Saudi Arabia and other Petro states where
the state controls almost all aspects of capital and capital, so is the covers of the state.
No, absolutely.
You're, you're not wrong, or I mean, you can literally look at fucking, you look at Russia,
Russia Federation, Russia is a petrocapitalist state where I would say the party or rather
the singular person has tremendous control over capital.
The difference is, I don't think Saudi Arabia is as invested in the development or the improvement
of the material conditions of all of the people living on Saudi soil, many of which are not
even considered Saudi nationals, right?
opposed to China, where the party's focus is proletarian in nature, and the party machine
is comprised of those who come from diverse backgrounds from all around the country and
have worked all around the country as well.
So not all forms of dominance over capital is going to be socialist in nature.
Hillary McLaren? Okay, stop. Oh my God. Oh my God.
Production. This is why while banks remain entirely nationalized, major FinTech firms
such as Tencent operate with access to both domestic and global investments.
Paradoxically, this process, while generating significant...
Is people with a rural Hukou not able to travel that much different from the workers in Saudi Arabia? Yes, it absolutely is.
Because rural Hukou system doesn't render travel impossible.
Rural Hukou system, which is already in the process of being reformed and adjusted to the current needs of current Chinese society, doesn't render them...
Uh, it doesn't render their travel impossible.
It just shuts their access off to social services outside of where they're, you know,
where they live.
And there's an application process, jank uber.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Stop.
Stop.
You can't bring up a decent point and then have me explain it only to fucking bait me
with jank uber, dude.
What the fuck?
The Hukou system, and the way that it works currently, is about access to social safety
nets, like access to free health care, access to free education, things of that nature.
I think one of the, yeah, Hukou system is just to prevent overcrowding in bigger cities.
It's more of a problem.
You need the countries with big rural populations like China.
I would also say that I think China's biggest problem right now isn't even the Hukou system
at all.
I think their biggest problem is that they're turning into the West in some respects, where
they have a crisis of unemployed educated people.
Without a doubt that the Chinese model has numerous advantages over the American model,
But is it better than the Scandinavian model in your opinion, China has substantially more
income and equality than the Scandinavian nations for one?
I think they're in the process of solving these crises.
So only Tom will tell, like, it's not necessarily just a matter of size.
But I think it's about how well they can solve these issues.
The other, my humble, westerner opinion, the other aspect of Chinese governance that I
I think is way too heavy-handed.
And actually, in a weird way, tempers its development
in certain forces is its cultural repression,
or rather, its tendency to control culture.
There is a very heavy-handed approach
as far as sometimes restricting the arts
redirecting the arts in a way to play a very significant role in the development of culture
by changing like societal attitudes almost by force sometimes by saying like no no no you
can't do this you have to do this other thing instead. I think that's that is part of the reason why
paired up with the fact that they just have never really been that invested in soft power in my
opinion, which many people will disagree with me on this, I think that it's a huge L. Their
propaganda to the Western world, their propaganda focus to the rest of the world is ass. There
is a tremendous room for growth there. And part of the reason why there hasn't been that
much and the most salient aspect of Chinese culture that people know is Hong Kong cinema,
as Hong Kong is, you know, or was a Western enclave, so it didn't have the same like similar
social restrictions that mainland China has.
Chinese culture is incredible. I mean, you have an endless well of cool novel things
to the Western world that you could straight up showcase. Like, look at how much Japanese
culture has been able to dominate the rest of the world. There are a lot of artifacts
in Japanese culture that unironically come from China. This isn't even that crazy. China
was the domineering imperial force in the region for quite a long time. So many of the
things that even Westerners consider to be Japanese culture are actually relics and artifacts
from Chinese culture originally. So the fact that Japan has been able to dominate this
much as opposed to China who has shown no interest whatsoever in developing soft power
is a little silly. Now, of course, you could just say they don't give a shit. They don't
give a shit at all. They have a massive economy. They're constantly focused internally on producing
things for their own population. And that's fine. That is definitely what the Chinese
cultural industry has served, right? But I do think that there is a tremendous benefit
to soft power initiatives with cultural exports.
Yeah, Goku is literally Sun Wukong retold,
which is Chinese folklore.
That's only one aspect of it.
When you're a fucking 5,000 year empire,
you have a lot more of that, okay?
Who cares though?
They're still going downhill despite all the soft power.
Yes, I mean, Japan is a fucking, is a vassal.
Of course they're going downhill.
Um, but
I'm just I'm just saying like this is my own personal opinion
My own personal humble westerner opinion. Maybe I'm totally off base with this, but I feel like china could have
uh
China would dominate the rest of the world because it already has the productive capabilities
and it already has an
unbelievable untapped well of
of cultural products that they could just show the rest of the world and tell their
own story with their own language, with the way that they want to tell it, and it would
be automatically novel for the Western world.
You know, it would be new.
It would be refreshing.
It would be exciting because we haven't really seen, you know, Chinese cultural products.
I mean, look how much, look how much LaBouBou took the world by storm, right?
It almost feels like an accident whenever, whenever there is a Chinese work of art that
actually gets a lot of prominence in the Western world, it unironically feels like it was
an accident.
Like they just were able to sneak it out of China and it really blew up.
LaBouBou being one example and obviously Black Myth Wukong is another example as well.
two cultural works that Xi Jinping mentioned by name alongside Asia in his annual State
of the Union Address.
I feel like this is a Western-centric viewpoint.
There's no reason to cater to the Western Anis, Western cultural dominance that didn't
come from the West catering to Third World Tastes.
What?
No.
What?
Catering to Third World Tastes?
That's not what I'm saying at all. You're redefining third world tastes. That's what
the West did. Why do you think everybody loves America, but fucking hates American policy?
It's pretty significant. It is actually pretty significant. It's one way to be a towering
behemoth around the globe. America would never have been able to explain to people that it's
a singular hegemonic superpower position is actually for the benefit of mankind if it
wasn't for all of the cultural exports and all of its soft power initiatives.
I think cultural soft power is more consequential than economic soft power.
I think they're both necessary and it's important. That's why USAID exists, but you know, you need both.
Yeah, that's why, yeah, you got Libby dudes in Libby in the Kobe Jersey shooting a fucking RPG, you know.
That's why you got, uh, that's why there was a national day of mourning
when the mangaka of Dragon Ball passed away in Kiritori Amma. That's important. Those things are important.
In inequalities in the short term, is framed as laying the material foundation for their
eventual transcendence.
Third, full privatization only exists in smaller markets.
Smaller markets such as retail, light manufacturing, and consumer services are broadly open to
private investment and competition.
Rather than centrally managing all production, the state delegates low-stake sectors to market
mechanisms while retaining overall direction of the economy.
This arrangement allows the state to focus its resources on the commanding heights of
the economy and long-term strategic development.
These small market sectors generate modest profits that incur...
I think China will not be able to break through culturally unless the government lifts its
hand off the scale in our Chinese films or reminiscent of the 1950s American films in
way, no sex, no on-screen violence. No, that's what I'm saying. That was precisely my point.
I think China's focus on social engineering is what absolutely limits the people's artistic
expression. I mean, they're very good at everything else, right?
Yeah, see dramas and Chinese Yowee's a major export to yeah, you just described two things that the
Chinese government is currently trying to get under control. Ironically enough. Yes. Yes,
that's my point. You literally just described two massive growth sectors that the Chinese government
is like enough enough of this gay shit. Okay, we have a we have a population crisis that's imminent.
no more no more sexy fem boys we got to fucking dial that back in we have to
have wolf style masculine men shown prominently
And also, the C dramas are, I guess, like, I don't know how much it's, how real that
This is probably Western propaganda a little bit, but
All right, man, you changed your mind on China. I was a defender before you told me the yaoi's gone. Yeah
Courage entrepreneurship and yeah, no more no more ceo's falling in love with uh poor ladies
Employment to ridiculous not concentrate wealth on a scale that empowers the bourgeoisie to meaningfully challenge state authority
Instead they function in a highly regulated and controlled space for market activity meeting the everyday needs of consumers
Offering employment to workers while supporting economic dynamism
You're like this is Western chauvinism saying China doesn't do art well from a Western point of views kind of saying China doesn't do art Western style
No, that's not what I'm saying at all
No, you're misunderstanding what I'm saying. I'm saying
Chinese culture is awesome. Okay, and there is fucking thousands of years of it
They should just export some of that to the West
They don't have to they don't have to fit Western taste at all. That's not what I'm saying
They don't have to fit Western taste in any way shape or form
It will be novel regardless at reception
because
It will be novel from the reception of the West regardless because it's new just some that they haven't encountered
I'm saying make a million blackmouth wukong's okay
That's it make it or whatever version of that
You're misunderstanding my point
I'm saying if I'm Israel Epstein
Okay. If I'm the one white guy, Israel Epstein in the, uh,
Communist party of China. Okay. And as the, as the outsider giving advice as the one lone
white boy with swag in the Communist party of China, and I'm sitting in on the standing committee,
pulls me up and they say, Hey, like, what do you think? Where do you think we're lacking?
Cause we're fucking, our bitches are bad, our smoke is so fucking loud, our weed is so loud, we're killing it, okay?
What do you think is an area that we are lacking?
I'd be like, good sirs, okay?
Good sirs, I, in the spirit of Israel Epstein, I'm telling you, you gotta make Bloodborne, okay?
Just make Chinese Bloodborne and pump it to the west.
China made banger old-school TV shows no one care back then because in the West
because China wasn't dominating economically so at the end of the day
economy's still number one I'm not discounting that
and then they go blood-borne there's blood in the name that's crazy yes this is
is for elapsed in member of the standing committee of the national committee of
the Chinese people's political consultative conference okay
Yes, I wasn't joking. No, it's real Epstein. He's fucking. He's a, he's a, is a real guy.
He died at the age of 90, in 2005, RIP.
I will not abide by a Yaoi misinformation.
I must correct you further yaoi it's still allowed and consumed the yaoi still allows on with the fuck my roommate goes home
To China and brings back merch for yaoi franchises
Check logs. I'm the yaoi enjoyed Jesus Christ. You just
Thoroughly embarrassed yourself to correct the record, but hey I respect it I
I will not abide by Yahweh missing foe.
I was born in 2005, I am the reincarnation of Israel Epstein.
Your first mistake was assuming yaoi enjoyers feel shame.
Yeah nickname I pay.

Israel Epstein.
Nickname A-Pack.
It's fucked up.
Okay, all right, let's continue with this video.
Importantly, these markets are not free in a classical capitalist sense,
as the state thoroughly shapes them through regulation, industrial policy,
and macroeconomic planning, using tools such as price controls,
credit allocation, licensing, and targeted subsidies.
Lastly, it is important to reiterate the centrality of the dictatorship of the proletariat.
China's economic model is premised on the continued political dominance of the Communist Party,
understood in Marxist Leninist terms as the institutional expression of the dictatorship
of the proletariat. Without this foundation, state power would be captured by capital,
enabling the national bourgeoisie to convert its economic influence into political control
and shape state policies in the narrow interests of capital.
This was one of the things that Xi Jinping's period will be best known for, which was chopping up.
Like there was a period where I think the Chinese bourgeois national bourgeois class
got a little bit too big for its own britches and he came in and he just fucking chopped it up.
Like massive anti-corruption initiatives, a lot of fucking, a lot of CEOs in prison or, you know, killed, executed by the state.
Seen across much of the western world.
Disappeared only to return.
But instead.
In a more diminished role.
...teens authority over the commanding heights of the economy, enforces regulatory discipline,
and uses anti-corruption measures to constrain the political power of capital and promote people-centered development.
In capitalist societies, stability is often maintained through the consolidation of bourgeois control over the commanding heights of the economy.
My uncle went to prison when she came in, Lamal. Damn.
Which translates to the bourgeois political power within the state, limiting the political capacity of the working class.
As a result, the bourgeois class maintains dictatorial control over the reproduction
of the capitalist system itself.
But in the People's Republic of China, this logic is reversed.
The state controls the commanding heights of the economy.
I just don't really agree that state repression has much effect on cultural export.
People in China even these days are still nostalgic for old school shows and movies.
And most people agree that they were so much better than the stuff these days and those
were commissioned and made 100% by the state.
Okay, then make the state make it.
I'm just saying, someone's got to make it.
But there is it's interesting that such a fucking towering behemoth like China around the world has yet to make a significant impact as far as cultural exports goes and there's got to be a reason for that I suspect the the social engineering that takes place at the at the top probably plays a little bit of a role.
There's a Chinese show that I think is a good example of the state letting go of it.
The long season is a sea drama that deals with China's Northeastern Rust Belt, and the
fallout of the Xia Gang are the mass layoffs from the SOEs during the 90s and reform and
opening up.
It talks about the social consequences of government policy, and while comedic does
not always stay with the happy attitude that Chinese media has, a good show would recommend.
Damn, that's a real ass nerd bro, that's crazy.
How did you enjoy or just straight up watching fucking Chinese C-dramas develop a deeper
understanding of Chinese culture?
Just saying, stop gay keeping Chinese culture.
And therefore does not surrender entire key industries to the dictates of capital and
the narrow self-interest of a small group of monopolists.
political system. As a real systemic criticism though, what prevents a post-G world from
snapping back to the bourgeoisie, it's the internal party structure and how people advance through
it and how they get to their position of prominence, how they advance to the standing committee.
It's just the institution, the party institution itself is supposed to rid people of those sorts
of ambitions. Structure promotes a distinctive form of stability by allowing the state to pursue
development strategies on a long-term scale while orienting policy towards broader socialist objectives.
Sorely lacking within Western Marxism is any sustained or serious engagement with socialism
with Chinese characteristics.
Much of this literature either ignores or abstracts away from the historical conditions
out of which modern China emerged, the devastation of the century of humiliation, the extreme
poverty inherited after 1949, the widespread opium addiction, and the persistent efforts
of imperialist powers to contain or disrupt China's socialist development.
Western Marxist analyses appear less concerned with understanding socialist construction
in practice than with defending an abstract conception of it against actually existing
models.
They frequently overlook the crucial fact that China remains the only country from the
global south to have developed economic and technological capacities that rival the most
advanced western states, while simultaneously raising life expectancy, dramatically improving
living standards and lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty in the span of just a few decades.
Rather than deriving their conclusions from empirical outcomes, they often begin from
a priori theoretical commitments and interpret China through that lens, producing significant
analytical blind spots.
For example, this paper criticizes China as capitalist because it has, quote, universal
commodity production, unquote.
The argument not only ignores the extensive system of social rights provided to Chinese
citizens, but also overlooks the fact that commodity production has not become universalized
in any comparable way to advanced capitalist economies.
For example, gambling, pornography, and even Bitcoin are prohibited in Chinese markets
because they don't promote people-centered development.
This paper claims that China is capitalist because workers do not directly own and control
the means of production.
How do we square China's hostility of labor unions, especially as they shift towards the
mixed economy that the video describes?
It's literally baked into the Constitution and it is heavily enforced as well.
One recent example is that there was an AI company that where a guy literally trained
the AI to replace them and then he sued the company and then the court system immediately
struck down the decision by the company and it became a new provision that new AI initiatives
cannot displace pre-existing labor force.
It's kind of saying like, oh, well, there are no minimum wages in Nordic countries.
Yeah, there isn't because the labor system engages in sectoral, the labor union system
that they have engaged in sectoral bargaining. And therefore, it renders a minimum wage to
be useless. As a matter of fact, a minimum wage in places like the Scandinavian systems
would actually be a depressive force on overall wages. And that's why it's completely unnecessary.
to get all dingust here, but black cat, white cat, as long as it catches the rat.
This type of...
What's your thoughts on Vietnam socialism and government in comparison to China?
Oh, it's nothing.
It's not...
It's not as...

Their...
Their system is, I would say, very different.
Criticism similarly...
As far as I understand.
knowledgeable, but theirs is a very different system than the Chinese one.
Dramatic improvements in the working and living conditions experienced by the Chinese.
I generally agree with you, but it kind of sounds like I actually have a really nice
employer, so I don't need a union.
It's a dictatorship of the proletariat.
run by a communist party. There are still issues for the record, like in the gig economy,
which has been the major growth sector, which is a real problem in China. And that, as far
I understand has led to some some work stoppages, some demonstrations as well.
As long as the government is responsive, then it's good.
I think those are the real areas of problems in China though.
Chinese working class. Since the reform and opening up period,
roughly 850 million people have been lifted out of absolute poverty,
the most significant poverty reduction in human history.
Yet this transformation is rarely given any meaningful weight in Western Marxist analyses.
Criticisms of China's environmental reforms follow a similar pattern.
They point to China's reliance on coal and rapid industrialization as evidence of its
abandonment of environmental initiatives. However, once again, little attention is paid to the
the country's diversified energy strategy. It's significant investments in renewable
energy. Yeah, analysis that takes a skeptical tone
of Chinese development that refuses to listen to the five-year plans and what their trajectory
looks like will always look silly a decade later. Okay, if you noticed for the longest
If you remember in the green energy side people that would propagandize against China would always say oh dude
They got so much reliance on coal dude. They're fucking they're a massive polluter. They're a massive polluter
They got so much environmental pollution. It's like well one it's because they're making shit for you
Okay, they're making shit for us
That's part of the reason why there was a lot of industrial waste and pollution and to just fucking wait
And now, they don't say that anymore because they've made unbelievable leaps in renewable
energy.
They are the domineering force in the next wave of energy.
They just completely dominate it now.
Well, energy, or its ongoing efforts to improve ecological conditions.
Even the construction of new coal power plants are presented without context, despite the
fact that many of these plants are being designed with greater efficiency and emissions reductions
technologies such as carbon capture.
While these measures are not a complete solution, they do represent meaningful, albeit incremental,
steps towards lowering overall emissions.
Critiques of real estate speculation and housing similarly misrepresent the structure and
outcomes of China's housing system.
Some Western Marxists portray Chinese housing markets as having been fully privatized and
commodified in a manner similar to Western housing markets.
But in reality, approximately 90% of Chinese households own their own home, and roughly
70% of Chinese millennials do.
Compare this with the West, where only 60% of adults and 30% of millennials own their
own home.
Overall, Western Marxism's broader political function is in redirecting inquiry away from
strategic engagement with existing socialist states and revolutionary traditions.
Instead, it tends to privilege theoretical critique over political construction, frequently
dismissing Communist parties and socialist states as illegitimate while offering no
viable alternative pathway to power in advanced capitalist societies.
In doing so, it risks functioning less as a framework for anti-capitalist transformation
than as an internal critique that remains politically inert.
Socialist construction has always involved victories and failures, and any serious Marxist
analysis must be capable of studying both if it is to contribute to future praxis.
But by rejecting historically successful revolutionary methods while offering no viable alternative,
Western Marxism's main contribution is in fragmenting the broader communist movement,
and in this way is aligned with the goals of imperialism.
Rather than uniting with the historically effective Leninist methods of achieving working-class
state power, they interject into socialist discourse with no experience of successful
revolution to call their own, to either suggest an alternative method that has consistently
ended in failure or completely reinvent the wheel.
Once again, as Michael Parenti observes, the pure socialist ideological anticipations
remain untainted by existing practice.
They do not explain how the manifold functions of a revolutionary society would be organized,
external attack and internal sabotage would be thwarted, how bureaucracy would be avoided,
scarce resources allocated, policy differences settled, priorities set, and production and
distribution conducted. Instead, they offer vague statements about how the workers themselves
will directly own and control the means of production and will arrive at their own solutions
through creative struggle. In this sense, Western Marxism maintains a posture of radical critique
while avoiding engagement with the problem of political power itself.
Revolutionary politics, a dictatorship of the proletariat,
or communist organizing, are therefore frequently dismissed
while existing socialist states are treated as deviations from a more perfect ideal.
The result is a form of critique that can endlessly interpret the world
without developing a coherent strategy to actually change it.
Within Western Marxism, there are those who maintain the illusion that they are carrying
out the revolutionary tradition of Marxism by reading and promoting the Frankfurt School
at university.
There are also more sober analyses of those who had-
interesting that you guys said this guy was a Trotskyist, famously the inventor of the
term racism to render debate impossible.
To the fact that Marxism has effectively become neutered of its revolutionary content in the
western world.
This perspective maintains that the proliferation of non-revolutionary Marxism and its retreat
into the academy is the result of failed socialist revolutions in the West.
I don't agree. I will say this much. This aspect of it, this aspect of it, I understand where
he's coming from, but I think it's not systemic critique to say that the reason why western
Western Marxism is an unbelievable failure is because it's disorganized, far too idealistic,
far too critical of existing socialist transitional states that are trying to do their very best
in relation to their own material conditions and their period of development.
All of that stuff is true, but I think the reason as to why Western Marxism has been
an abject fucking failure is because the imperial apparatus has eviscerated any sort of revolutionary
attempts successfully and have rendered even class consciousness to be a forethought.
There has been a tremendous amount of mystification of class politics in this country.
We have so effectively neutered any kind of revolutionary movement historically and at
times not even through PSYOPs but through direct military action.
This has also been an ever-present threat on attempts towards revolutionary politics
in Latin America as well, many of which have tried to develop some kind of socialist tendency
or communist tendency by way of reform, which has been demonstrably a failure.
It's unfortunately, you know, the most resilient form of, like, revolutionary, or the most
resilient form of revolutions have almost always come in periods of war, with the only
exception being, I guess, the Cuban Revolution, which, ironically enough, wasn't even a Communist
revolution and its inception, and took shape into a Communist one after.
Like Venezuela is a great example of the failures of reform in many respects, unfortunately,
to like disparage it too much, but ultimately, also the most impressive because they did
it with 13 dudes. Yeah, technically what 80? What was it? It was 85, but then it immediately
reduced to 13 liquidated down to 13. 82. So I still think that it's not like the silly
distractions or like aesthetic revolutionaries that led the revolutionary potential of the
masses away into unproductive avenues and a constant state of idealism and critiques
with uh... no real
uh... successful method of implementation i think it was
a deliberate state design to fucking destroy it
destroy it in its uh... immediate
destroy it to the best of its ability in its in its uh... neighborhood is an all
in his own backyard
but then also certainly destroy it internally
those who paid the pipers of western marxism offers an important intervention
into this assumption by pointing out that Western Marxism did not entirely result from
the absence of successful revolution.
Revolutions frequently fail, but this does not render revolutionary movements obsolete.
Instead, Rockhill maintains that the real distortion of Marxism in the Western world
came from capitalist ownership and control over intellectual production.
As Marxism left the streets and factories and became further entrenched with the Bourgeois
Academy, it was progressively reconfigured through an ongoing synthesis with liberalism,
post-structuralism, Freud, Heidegger, and a whole host of eclectic theories which tended
to undermine rather than develop the revolutionary consciousness or power of the working class.
At best, critical theory has served to inform some of the political practice of social democratic
parties, although if questioned on this relationship, critical theorists and social democrats alike
will be hard-pressed to articulate any direct or meaningful connection between the two.
This disjuncture helps explain why, when social democratic or left-leaning parties do enter
government, they frequently lack coherent frameworks for transforming capitalist state
structures in practice.
Meanwhile, Leninism, arguably the most politically consequential development of Marxist theory,
has been increasingly marginalized, reframed, or rendered theoretically suspect.
The result has not been a shift in ideas. I mean, think about it this way. For Westerners,
one of the most like constant, one of the most consequential thinkers of anti-imperialist
thought in the West is Noam Chomsky. And this is even before we knew about, you know, what
the fuck he was doing with Jeffrey Epstein, right? We're in extensively on the stuff
and he was anti-Lenin, which was something that I always found to be in poor taste. Now
Now I'm not gonna sit there and be like, oh my god, Trump's using Thailand, you know, anti anarchist vindicated or anything like that
Oh per anti vindicated thinking you read both, but
But yeah, that is
Like if you're if your worldview is anchored by anarcho-syndicalism, you're gonna have a fucking hard time
Coming up with these solutions
You know
But a systematic depoliticization of Marxism within the dominant institutions of knowledge production.
In a world that is seeing such major transformation.
Charles Gershanti-Lenin, but he was still pro-Cuba and anti-NATO. We can have nuance. You're true.
At the global scale, from the NATO war against Russia, the genocide in Palestine, the U.S. war in Iran, and the geopolitical rise of China,
China, a rediscovery of Lenin is more timely than ever. His theory of imperialism, which
focuses on the expansion of finance capital, is crucial to understanding the context of
de-dolarization, the most significant geopolitical and economic...
I mean maybe Leninism isn't necessary in the US because Marxism by Marx is based on a Western
European and American trajectory. Now Leninism is always necessary.
shift of our current conjuncture. Furthermore, Lenin provides an ideological basis for interpreting
the Constitution and program of the Communist Party of China, which allows us to interpret
the history and function of the Party within the philosophical and ideological framework
through which it developed. In short, the systematic marginalization of Leninism in
the Western Academy is producing a systematic underdevelopment of thought and understanding
towards China.
From a Marxist-Leninist perspective, socialism is not an abstract ideal to be measured against
existing reality, but a historical process grounded in the development of the forces
of production, proletarian political consciousness, and the power of the Communist Party.
If socialism is understood as a horizon, z, then revolutionary praxis is not about a leap
to its immediate realization, but the strategic movement from A to B to C while preserving
and expanding the material capacities necessary for further transformation.
History is not traversed in a single rupture, but through a long march in which advances,
reversals, errors, setbacks, and adaptations are inevitable.
What matters is whether the working class retains and consolidates political power through
through a dictatorship of the proletariat, capable of steering the direction of society
down the socialist road.
From this standpoint, the historical trajectory of the People's Republic-
Focus on PMC shit, oh my god.
I think that's very Americanized, is a very Americanized critique.
This is the, this is the quirk of like, uh, ironically enough, this is also a part of
the, the problems with the, the nearsightedness of Western Marxism, in my opinion too.
I don't place that much emphasis on the PMC distinction.
I think it's a, what is PMC in this context?
Literally all the gay industries.
Okay.
Anyone, anyone that's doing something gay, a barista could be a professional managerial
class, depending on how hard you're squinting at it. Okay? Yeah. It always reminds me of like,
like MAGA's a hyper focus on HR and just like women in the workplace. I feel like it's the
leftist version of that. PMC is the professional managerial class. Obviously, as industrial
production moved to other countries in the western world, especially in the United States of America,
we just developed white collar bullshit jobs for the most part and moved heavily in the
direction of finance capital and then also in the service sector and the gig economy for everybody
else. And this led to the rise of the professional managerial class overeducated people. Anyway,
you know, lawyers, doctors, managers, white collar jobs in positions of management.
But yeah, I guess Cuba long-term failure was not having the military might to survive embargo.
if you can call that a fault. I think that one of the Cuba's long-term failures has also been
its overreliance on the USSR for existing and its reluctance at times to liberalize its or to
reform its or to marketize its economy a little bit. So much so that even like the Chinese,
especially post 90s since then in the aftermath of the dissolution of the
USSR the Chinese have been like dude you got to fucking you got to do some
reforms like what are we doing I should have asked Kosio the foreign minister
like would you guys do Dengue's reforms like you know something similar to that
adjusted to you know modern Cuban conditions and something he brought up
that conversation that we had was that there is definitely, you know, competing schools of thought
internally within the party. But what has obviously destroyed any attempts at reform has been the
crippling nature of the embargo. And all of the American interventions into the Cuban economy have,
have, and as I keep repeating over and over again, ironically made it impossible for them
to even liberalize or marketize their coming in any way, shape, or form.
Which is totally understandable.
Why can't we have labor unions or other forms of community organizing under socialism?
I didn't say that.
I'm not anti-China to be clear, but I find the idea of disallowing community organizing
is a hedge against human corruption of the kind that led to the end of the USSR.
I think proposing state socialism is the only possible way to know a room for more community
based initiatives to be short-sighted.
Okay, you go take it out with the CPC.
Plus, they do have community organizing in China.
We're just talking about labor unions in general, where it's like all matter of labor-related
issues is still left to the party.
It's the responsibility of the party and the local party officials that you go to.
Look of China is not a deviation from socialism, but one of its most consequential contemporary
expressions.
Whatever contradictions remain, its sustained capacity to eliminate mass poverty, expand
technological development, improve material conditions for hundreds of millions, among
many other great achievements, constitutes an empirical reality that any serious socialist
analysis ought to confront.
While China continues to undergo rapid development, the political horizon in the advanced capitalist
world is also shifting, only in the opposite direction.
Increasing numbers of young people are entering into a social order marked by declining living
standards, extreme concentration of wealth, ecological nihilism, and permanent geopolitical
instability.
Many youth recognize that a narrow elite of oligarchs exercises disproportionate control
over all of our political and economic life.
For these young people growing up under these circumstances today, being anti-capitalist
is no longer a moral or ideological conviction, but a survival strategy in a world that doesn't
seem to give a damn about their collective economic condition.
This emerging clarity does not automatically produce revolutionary consciousness, but it
does open space for it, and throw up this process of building class consciousness.
I think just as I talked about how now that Medicare for All is on the forefront of political
discourse in America, the forces within the Democratic Party are looking to find a new
privatized initiative that will offer modest reform in an effort to shut
people the fuck up like whatever the primary care thing that they were
presenting you will probably see in the upcoming decade if we don't just like
fully succumb to fascism just crumbs of social democracy offered to the masses
in an effort to shut them the fuck up in a net because when Peter Thiel
recognizes that the youth are, when Peter Thiel recognizes that the youth are becoming
communists and socialists at a fucking alarming rate, they recognize that the material conditions
have unwound far too much and that people are unbelievably frustrated and they're going
to demand radical changes in a more militant manner if they don't do something about it.
So who knows?
Many are looking to gain an understanding of alternative models of development, like
the model of market socialism in China.
However, the real challenge moving forward is not simply to convince Westerners to learn
from China, but to prepare them for the task of achieving state power.
The question of state power must be recovered in socialist discourse, how it is built, how
it is sustained, and how it is used to transform social relations in practice.
While the objective conditions for revolution are past ripe, the subjective revolutionary
consciousness of the masses still needs to continue to develop.
This is why Marxism-Leninism needs to continue to agitate, educate, and organize the masses
so that one day they can stamp out the dictatorship of capital, render western Marxism obsolete,
and join China in the long march down the socialist road.
America is a growing unemployment for highly educated people, a revolution in the world.
America is a growing unemployment for highly educated people, a revolution in the world.
America is a growing unemployment for highly educated people, a revolutionary movement
comes with people with those characteristics, I mean, sure.
Yeah, that was a pretty good video from RedPen.
I liked it.
I can't wait to see red pen face off against socialism for all. I don't this I hear this a lot
I hear his name a lot apparently he's a big hater of mine. What is it? What's his like?
What's his his focus? What's his you know, 10 disease? He's just like
Is he an ultra like what's his deal?
Because I feel like anytime people spend a good deal of time just being like I think Hassan piker is the number one
stopgap measure
against
Number one stopgap measure against
Fucking you know
Revolutionary fervor in this country that would have just overtaken the masses if it wasn't for the likes of some fucking
Twitch streamer
Socialism for all the ML who thinks you're a live he does free audiobooks, which is awesome. I
I used to be friends with socialism for all he's he thinks I'm a live
Hmm
He thinks you're a dem sock
turning people into democrats yeah that's that's my job that's what i'm trying to do
i do like that unlike all of my uh counter parts in the in this field i would go so far as to say
i would go i'm willing to bet that i've actually made the opposite conversion liberals to socialists
to Marxist-Leninist far more frequently than they ever could, and yet they still fucking
chirped me. Half of the people that chirped me actually come from this community, ironically
enough. They come in here, okay? They come in here, they're liberals, they're reactionaries,
and they're like, oh my god, there's an entire different world out there. I've never encountered
this before, and they dive into the books, okay? And then they go, you know what? I've
move beyond him. I've moved beyond the need. It's time for me to follow through on my
edible need to kill the father. Not saying that's, you know, socialism for all, but...
Why do all I like to think they're in the opening scenes of one battle after another?
Not a single skull in their name getting leaderboard mugged by Filipino Marx in the mountain? Okay,
That's the Maoist era.
Every single day you get called a shit-lib and a tanky within the same hour all the
time.
Truth Nuke, single largest producer of MLs in the US is Bernie Sanders.
It's 100%.
That's truth Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
That's truth Zar Bomba.
Okay?
100%.
A Russian Husky.
He's an anti-revisionist Marxist Leninist, Socialism for all of China's assessment is
infinitely better than whatever this dude in the video presented but yeah.
I was a China critical soccer member I found you an ammo ML
I've tried a swing alters that you're doing as a province turn countless liberals in the world
red social is. Good luck getting that across the people who also probably during COVID were
in here and went through that transformation because of this community only to now act
like they're above it all. Okay. That's what it is. Most people I think are ashamed to
admit this. Most people are ashamed to be like, yeah, Bernie Sanders was actually a
profoundly impactful in my development, my ideological journey. Most people will never
say that, okay? They will fucking never say that, but it's 100% true. It's 100% true.
That usually is like the starting point for a lot of people, and then they go on their
own ideological journey, which is understandable, you know? And that's fine. You know, everyone's
got different strokes for different folks, but they never internalize the lesson, the
importance of having someone on the fucking main stage be like, these things aren't bad.
an alternative way of thinking, and it's actually a pretty good way of thinking, and we should
actually totally redesign society in this way of thinking. It works. It works. Okay?
It doesn't even matter if Bernie Sanders himself is not on board with half of this shit. It
It doesn't matter
Yeah
Bernie Sanders is destroying revolutionary fervor in this country by running as a fucking Democrat or coxing with the goddamn Democrats in the
America ca ca ca
bourgeois capitalist
Parliament bourgeois capitalist system. It's fucking bullshit. He should do what I'm doing instead
Which is organizing a reading group with eight of my closest friends, and they never show up, but they will
Okay, they never show up, but then one day what they will and then the revolution will take place is like, okay
Just you know just kick back just wait then wait because that's what you're doing right now. Anyway, you're chirping regardless
The Grand Planners that was a hard sell I get it, but like damn they'll just hate you dog. Lamar. I don't yeah
I
Welcome to socialism brawl dude this motherfucker did an hour and
21 minutes. Oh my lord
That's not part of the shoes for DS opportunities and his arm. I'm not any good for the US socialist movement
I wish we could go back to pamphlets, bro. I swear to God. I can't watch an hour and 30 minutes
I wish he would just like write what his problems are so I can dissect it and read it. You know what I mean?
You were taught about fashion in my capital is a big realization for myself, holy shit.
Ah, the Cuban Revolution where Che Guevara plowed the rows and made buses free and voted Batista away. Oh, this is so oh
God
Okay, I'm not gonna do this. Look, I have no problems with this guy
Okay, he's great probably. I'm sure he's doing wonderful work at a certain point you got to realize like a lot of content creators have
Myself included we have egos. Okay, don't fall mercy to the whims and egos of content creators think critically
Don't punch left and and you know you can have comradely disagreements. It's fine
Is a video calling you CIA lamout?
I don't care.
Yes, I'm fucking government agent.
He's right.
He nailed it dude.
be fair drama draws more people to be ML. Oh really? That's how I did it, right?
You're fucking drama.
Brady was impactful to me. He was impactful to me, but it sounds like you're actively against people moving to left to social
Democrat. Isn't the goal that everyone will at some point, at one point will left for progress, will stop making fun of
to the left of social democracy. Wait, what? I'm to the left of social democracy. What the fuck are you talking about?
I'm making fun of people who don't realize what I'm doing and actively try to carve out a space for themselves, not by tackling reactionaries and convincing them to change their minds, which is what I fucking did.
There was no point in my development, in the development of this community, where I looked at like a larger fucking, you know, left-adjacent content creator and tried to fucking harness as many fucking, try to, try to harness a sectarian or ideological tendency difference and just like really exhausted to the maximalist conclusions so that I could fucking present myself as the most moral arbiter of socialism.
I never did that shit. Okay, these motherfuckers only do that shit. That's what I criticize
That's literally it they try to like they don't have the goals or the interests of trying to
Reach out to a much broader
Self-identifying liberal audience their goal is to just try to their goal is to try and fight
different battles like sectarian battles and
endlessly bastardize the position of someone like myself and and try to chip
away you know try to chip away at whatever audience that I have it's
it's not as stupid as unproductive I'm too marginal and too tiny for them to
hyper-focus on but they don't see it there's a much broader there is a much
broader audience out there that you should be trying to fucking educate okay
This is the reason why if you notice I never I have ideological disagreements and stuff like that
There's people to my left. There's people to my right plenty of them that I don't fucking argue with all the time because they're trying to educate the masses
They're not trying to like
Hold on to the the people who are ideologically as close to them as possible and just be like the other guy there
You're getting this information from he's evil. He's actually trying. He's not a real leftist. They're real socialists not real Marxist at all
He's fucking lying to you
Okay, that's the big difference
But, but a lot of people don't realize that. They don't understand it. That's why
I've been able to develop this community to the size that it has. And, and you're not doing it.
Because you're just, you're, you're not locking in on the much larger fucking
pie out there. You're hyper focused like a crab in a bucket at the closest guy to you.
Okay. I'm not your op, you fucking idiot. That's my argument.
It's pretty obvious. Yeah, it's a imagine if I was starting drama with John Oliver, you know what I mean if I was like
This fucking John Oliver guy's a real piece of shit. He's a real fucking stupid guy. Oh my god. Oh
You should watch me instead not John Oliver. Why are you watching John Oliver?
I have so many better ideas like that would be really fucking stupid, right?
Maybe I'd be able to chip away at some of John Oliver's audience, but I'd be making
a whole lot more enemies in the process, and it's not a productive way to go about it.
If you are a self-described Marxist Leninist and you think I am the biggest fucking stopgap
measure that prevents people from exploring more revolutionary principles, you're fucking
insane.
You're an insane person who hasn't talked to an average dude in probably a decade.
Like the only time you're communicating with people has to be in your Splinter Discord
server, right? Like the average person, the average person in the real world does not
explore any of these concepts. My job is to make them reconsider these things that they
don't know anything about or have been negatively polarized against. Even though I myself would
be within the category of ultra-brior assessment are far closer to socials and for all assessment
on most things that you risk for China and like tourism. The primary reason I think you're
positive force overall regardless because of the not-shoot-your-left principle you have,
which I think is extremely important at this stage because there isn't any of those exactly.
I don't think it's rare critics of you are in bad faith just disagreements on praxis
buddy you just said he called me a CIA agent you think that's not a fucking bad faith criticism
anyway I don't want to talk about it any further I don't care
they're literally grifting to the left even though you say that doesn't exist they're
mining content and they're financially and otherwise incentive to do so in my opinion
It often comes from their own internalized inferiority complex and cognitive dissonance over pre-C being sex, past any maga or other reactionary fan and the perverse incentive structures of social media reward that malignant behavior.
Sure.
I'm sure that plays a role in it too.
Anyway, it's time.
It's time for Maya.
It's Maya time.
Where is it?
Where is it?
Where, where is it?
What?
This is what Normies think of leftist?
Right now, we're playing at maybe being like white critical, maybe we're white traders,
but the goal is-
I mean, this is an entirely different thing, but-
The white abolitionists, and that means-
Yeah, but it just is to like, whatever, whatever like Marx's tendency, whatever socialist tendency
you have that you believe, please, this is a liberal argument, yes, yes, yes, it is.
The other, no, here, I'll adjust it to like being a fucking Marxist-Leninist malice.
It's like when I'm talking, when I'm trying to educate masses in the imperial core and
of trying to desperately avoid the concept of labor aristocracy, okay?
And someone to my left flank goes, erm, Hassan.
As a matter of fact, every person in the imperial core is benefiting unbelievably from the unequal
extraction from the periphery, and they're actually technically benefiting tremendously
from American imperialism. Why won't you address that? And it's like, well, I don't know. Maybe
because I don't want to tell people that they're actually in a fucking much more comfortable position
overall, because I don't want them to go, yeah, maybe American imperialism is pretty good overall.
Maybe that's the reason why I'm not fucking doing that. Have you thought about that?
Perhaps that's the reason.
Fucking stupid.
Okay, is that a better counter example
instead of this liberal shit?
You're scaring the hoes.
My hega the wildlife sanctuary you can visit from anywhere
My did an actual real Ted talk which is crazy. I'm so proud of her. She's fucking awesome
Is to use the internet to build our next generation of conservationists and I've not been doing
this for all that long. Okay. I was born in 1998. So I will get that out of the way right
off the bat, but I'll tell you guys how I got started. So I grew up on a farm and I
always loved animals.
When is yours? Yeah, I'm going to do one on, on, um, you know, anti-Semitism is awesome.
That's my 10th. You think Ted would ever fucking allow it is me? Are you in? Actually, that's
not true. They probably would, but most likely not.
So we had rabbits and horses and chickens, and you name it, we had it,
and I loved it.
So then when I was 18 and in college, naturally,
I got a job as a zookeeper.
So I put on the safari outfit,
and I would bring animals like kangaroos and lemurs
to schools and birthday parties to teach kids about wildlife.
So it was a pretty cool job. It was really awesome.
So then one night after work,
I met some friends online who were livestreaming themselves
playing video games on Twitch,
And I had no idea what that meant.
But I learned that I could broadcast myself live
on this website doing whatever.
By the way, this is so difficult.
Her hair looks amazing, yeah, her hair looks fabulous.
You're right.
This is so difficult.
As long as this ispoke, you may.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Broza, broza a whole, he's like a,
like a misogyn, misogyn racist. If that makes sense. Instead of thinking all, instead of
thinking all black people look the same like races do, you were like all women are the
same, right? That's crazy. Bro has to be 45 minimum. Is this Pokemon? Hold on. I need
one of these young whippers, snappers that bring me my glasses?
I wanted so I could cook or I could sing or I could play video games and if people enjoyed
watching it they would send me tips, so cash, like actual real money and as a college student
that's pretty freaking sweet.
So I started streaming to about 10 viewers at a time almost every day.
Then one night after one of these live streams, I got a call from a zookeeper friend about
this red-tailed hawk who had been hit by a car and he needed help.
So we brought Bean, that's what we called him, home to my college house and I started
to rehabilitate him in my backyard.
Wait, is that bird alive or dead?
I don't get it.
And one night I'm live streaming, I'm cooking, I'm talking about this new hawk in my backyard.
And one of my viewers didn't believe me.
They didn't believe that I had a bird in my backyard.
And I could not have that.
So I put my falconry glove on,
and I brought the bird inside to show them.
Of course, because I have a problem.
And one of the people watching this stream
made a short video of this moment,
and they shared it on Reddit,
and it went viral.
So my viewership shot up overnight,
and I started live-streaming Bean's rehabilitation process.
So I'd call him from his perch to my glove,
the people watching my streams started becoming as invested as I was in his recovery.
It was like they were doing it with me, sort of, which was like...
Yeah, back when Reddit was good.
She said, live stream, not this stream, keep up.
Yeah.
Cool thing that I've ever done.
And then eventually, because I was reaching so many people with Bean Story,
the zoo that I worked at started allowing me to bring animals like cockatoos
and reptiles home to present on my live stream.
That's crazy.
So suddenly, somehow, I had turned this zoo outreach job that I had into a work-from-home situation, right?
Which is awesome, but instead of reaching 20 kids at a time in a classroom, I was reaching THO-
Look at this fucking guy, bro.
Listen, you're like 35, okay?
Calm down.
Lock in.
My man is posting Yepcox in the chat.
You're 35. I'm not. I'm younger than you, big bro.
I have bigger tits than you. Okay. Well, chill on that. You're right, but like calm down.
I was in the people at a time all over the world. So this is when it really clicked for me, right?
I wanted to do this for the rest of my life,
but I wanted to do it at a much, much larger scale.
So then two years later, at 22 years old, I came up with a plan,
and the vision was to build an animal sanctuary that nobody visits,
or at least not in person.
So we would rescue animals and build huge animal enclosures,
and we would livestream conservation education programs online
so people could fall in love with our animals,
the way that they fell in love with being that bird.
Our animals would be able to reach millions and millions of people without having to meet a single one of them in person
and then of course I would fundraise all of the capital to do all of these things and build this entire facility in one single
live stream
Which is the craziest idea that I've ever had but this is crazier
It worked somehow so I'm live streaming one day and there's some
and Lebanese!
Dude, Austin, chill, bro.
Why are you...
Bro, Austin, calm down, dude.
I hate white people. I hate white people.
Aw, that's a little racist, man.
That's a little racist.
That's fucked up.
Wait, what? You hate white people?
I hate white people.
Wow.
Let women speak, Austin.
Stop talking over women Austin. I'm gay. We know man. We know. I'm gay.
And Lebanese. Wow. Okay, dude. Oh, thank you.
Whoa. Thank you. Thank you so much. So I'm live streaming one day and someone in my live chat
said, my, if we raised $500,000, would you shake your head on stream? And I said, you have
Because who wouldn't do that? Who in the right room wouldn't do that?
Apparently, that was pretty motivating, though,
because over the course of a 21-hour-long live stream,
we fundraised $573,000
to build the sanctuary.
So I bought some land in Austin, Texas,
started building animal enclosures,
and I started growing my hair back, that takes about two years,
in case anyone was curious.
And the screens are huge.
That is a huge picture of me bald in front of a lot of people.
Okay.
So, next up was rescuing animals.
Okay, so, alpha and normal are marmosets.
They're these very tiny, very, very charming new world monkeys.
Someone originally bought them as pets online,
but then after years of inadequate care,
they were brought to us for rehabilitation.
So, they now live at Alves to help teach people
about the exploitation of primates in the pet trade
and about the importance of conserving their rainforest habitats too.
They also have a little iPad to play games on now, very, very cute.
Finn is an American Red Fox who was confiscated from the illegal pet trade in California.
So he and his best friend- Oh God, this one. That's my op. With the human face.
I swear to God, he has a human face.
Your worst take? No, no, it's a good take. Okay, listen.
listen
He
looks
Angry all the time in a very human way
okay, and he he always looks grumpy and
He reminds me he reminds me of like
Like ancient folklore where they would you know, they would like do these
these delicate drawings of like different forest spirits and stuff, right?
And then they would have like an animal, but then the animal would have a human face, okay?
That's what he looks like.
He literally looks like he's not supposed to have that face.
So you're making fun of his birth deformations caused by him being in the pet trade?
Yes.
of see it's bad to do the pet trade.
Akalai, this is your most Turkish take. I'm just saying, man.
Stop denying your blood relative. I'm Turkish, so my blood relatives are foxes
or not foxes, sorry, wolves and not foxes.
Okay.
My friend Reid now live at Alves to help teach people about the nightmare that is the fur trade,
helping to build a new generation of fur-free consumers.
Then there's Winnie the Moo.
She's a cow.
She was rescued from a beef operation in Oklahoma.
She lives at Alves to help teach people about commercial agriculture and how it impacts animal welfare and our planet.
One way that viewers can support the sanctuary is by feeding Winnie treats.
So a $5 donation made online results in treats being dispensed via this automated feeder.
To date, that treat feeder has generated over $38,000 in funding for the sanctuary.
Isn't that crazy?
To eat her? No, so I can bring her to Israel, okay?
That's the cow.
That's the fully perfectly red-haired cow so that we can trigger the rapture.
The red heifer, dude.
Yeah.
God, some of you don't fucking care about evangelical Christian Zionism like I do.
What the fuck?
There's a lot of trees.
She's a very happy cow.
Since 2019, through live streaming,
I have raised over $7.5 million
for conservation causes across the globe.
In 2025 alone, we reached over 250 million people with conservation education online.
So over 10 million classrooms, just like the ones that I was bringing zoo animals to in
college just in the last year.
Alveas is now home to rescued parrots and emus and monkeys and wolf dogs and more, and we
We have those 36 cameras that are live-streaming them 24 hours a day.
But the beautiful thing about these live cameras
is our animals are all blissfully unaware
of the thousands of eyes on them at any given time.
Knocking open to the public means that our animals are less stressed
by the unpredictable factors that come with people visiting.
It also means that we've never had to divert any of our funding
to guest experiences,
like gift shops and concession stands and parking lots.
But one of the most positive benefits is we've developed one of the most accessible zoo models in the world.
Anyone with an internet connection can visit our animals for free from their device, from anywhere on the planet.
And they do.
Our online demographic, our online community, they range from about 17 to 28 years old.
We are our nation's new voters, new consumers, and up-and-coming decision makers.
We hold the future of this planet in our hands
But most of our online community didn't even join with an interest in environmentalism at all
They are just normal people. Yeah me
I was like
These animals are fucking cute. Can I pet them? That was my
But now I have a love for animal conservation
Okay, and that's the point
Internet users who stumbled across our content in one of our many, many feeds.
Alvea Sanctuary brings conservation to young people largely by meeting them where they already are,
which is on social media.
But before social media, TV programming was establishing the best examples of conservationists, right?
Heroes like Steve Irwin and David Attenborough and James Goodall.
These are obviously some of my personal heroes probably some of yours as well as they should be these guys rock right?
But for most of us it can be really hard to see ourselves in such legends
It leaves us feeling like that work is just a far-off dream that only other people achieve
But at all this that dream doesn't feel so far off
We got to take Maya to to Chengdu to the panda to the world's largest panda conservation
That's what we got to do. That will be content for our viewers. Alvarez is a dream that one of them achieved from within a space that they're already a part of and
They get to be a part of it all live. She might hate it. Why would she hate it?
So we're just getting started our next step is taking this alveas approach to the wild
We're building a new facility where we're going to breed endangered species at alveas for reintroduction and release into the wild
We're starting with the recovery of
Dinosaurs
Like what are we talking about like cool new versions of animals
What are we thinking do I get to pick
Or if we fundraise okay idea idea
If we fundraise a hundred thousand dollars as a community, do we get to choose what kind
of new animal we invent?
Is that possible?
Is that in the cards?
Will you stop pausing?
I'm trying to watch this.
Add a couple zeros and we'll talk.
That's crazy.
New York has changed you. New York has changed you.
I'll answer for Maya. Yes. No, now she's like, now, now she's a business woman. She puts
on, she puts on one fucking jacket to go to the goddamn United Nations. And now she's
like, yeah, add a couple. There's not even one, not even a million, 10 million.
and then we can invent an animal. I'm a numbers guy. I'm dropping my day ones and that includes
you. Okay. Yeah. I see how it is. One Ted talk all of a sudden, all of a sudden I'm
chop lever to this day. I think I'm the record holder on largest donations in one single visit,
but I don't know. Maybe I could, I'm wrong. I'm fresh. Actually, I'm probably washed now.
We got to do it again at some point. How many times have you been to the UN zero,
buddy? They don't allow me into the United Nations. Actually, that's not true.
There's the Belgian Communist that wants me to come and speak at the UN in Belgium.
Or no, in the European Union, never mind, none of the United Nations.
Lost a Mr. Beast and Danny Denham.
We hope that they'll care really deeply about these individuals and then, in turn, about
the wild places that we return them to, millions and millions and millions and millions of
brand new conservationists fighting for wildlife and wild places, all doing it from their homes.
We hope that they'll care deeply about these individuals and then, in turn, about the wild
fighting for wildlife and wild places,
all doing it from their homes.
So my mission is to use the internet
to build our next-generation conservationists.
I think it's working.
Thank you.
That's crazy. That's got to be nerve-wracking. Nat Geo, congratulations Maya. We're so inspired
by all the work you do. God damn, we got the Nat Geo mentioned. I used to sit on the sidelines,
mine's sister plays soccer, my daughter, I got the number, and amazing parents. Damn,
person is doxing your parents. Here's you go Alveys go. Yeah, support Maya in Alveys chat.
It's twitch.tv slash alveys sanctuary. Look, you guys know, okay, she's not in the chat anymore,
so I can, I can reveal my honest thoughts. She sucks. She's bad. She's a bad person. Don't be fooled.
Okay. Yeah, I said it. This is my, uh, it's true. Um, great talk. Great Ted talk. Well,
we play politics. People like my are actually saving the world. It's true. Um, yeah, I've
I've always, obviously you guys know, I've always appreciated what Maya does.
It's a beacon of light in our otherwise overwhelmingly and unbelievably negative space that we occupy.
And I really do appreciate content creators who try to, you know, make the world a better
place with the limited time that they have.
And she definitely abides by that spirit fairly well.
If you appreciate her, then why are you ducking the 1v1 basketball court?
I've destroyed her in basketball, in the marketplace of basketball, and also in the marketplace
of ideas.
Excuse me.
Excuse you.
Excuse yourself.
Thoroughly destroyed.
broken. What are you talking about?
But, to the zombie animal whisperer, for 28 minutes and 40 seconds, look at that.
I unfortunately forgot everything that I knew about animals right before we started the stream,
so we'll see how it goes today, but I'm gonna do my best.
The point of today is for Hasan to meet a bunch of animals, and for me to teach Hasan about them,
and then teach you about them.
Dude, this was, oh my god, this was such a dark time, holy shit.
I still remember.
Okay, this is a little bit of personal information, but this was like
This was when I was like genuinely considering quitting streaming
and
This was I think the first fun
non
gaza related stream that we did post October 7 and
I literally was like I think I probably should just quit streaming I should go
back to college you should you know get up and get a PA pursue a PhD maybe I'll
become like a college professor or something I because it was it was so
much every fucking day day in day out people were just like you're fucking
terrorists you're fucking terrorists you're a terrorist no allies no one in
the space none of my fucking none of my twitch streamer friends were or or none
of the content creators in the space wanted to touch the issue of Israel with
a ten foot ten foot fucking pole because they were so worried about being attacked.
They saw the way that like mercilessly people were like ripping into me, calling me a fucking
terrorist, even doing like unrestrained amounts, unbelievable amounts of unrestrained Islamophobia.
I mean, it's the same now too with major media, but it doesn't fucking matter anymore because
the public is on my side.
It doesn't matter.
But at that, at that point, this is January 30th, 2024.
There wasn't a lot of people who were like, yeah, Israel kind of sucks.
was like beginning to learn about how much Israel sucked, but they were not there yet.
Right. And, you know, my community had, had, uh, uh, been severed almost in half, you
know, a third left went from like 30,000 to barely crack in. We were like sub 20 K on
a day to day basis. So many content creators were just eating so good off of like every
Every other week, there would be another incident, another horrifying atrocity that I was trying
to shine a light to and at any time I spoke out on it, people would just do video after
video after video with like millions of fucking views being like he's a terrorist.
Look at how much of a fucking terrorist he is.
Now of course, at the time like I still, and I still abide by this, like it doesn't fucking
matter.
looked at the issues that I was trying to explain to an audience, primarily in the West,
and I was like, these people are sacrificing their lives. It's nothing. Like, you know,
feeling shitty and being called a terrorist every day is nothing. People leaving and misunderstanding
what I am trying to explain to people is in consequential of the grand scheme of things,
I have unbelievable privilege. I could just like push through it. So I'm not, you know, presenting myself as a victim at all
I'm just saying mentally I was there and
And then we did this stream
and
I think that was that literally stopped me from quitting because I remember I
Remember I was so close. I was like I fucking hate all this shit
I have no friends in this industry
I have no one that will stand by me all of these other people are like saying I'm a son of a lot and they're playing fucking games
Comparing me to this all I've been a lot and like some of the top content creators were doing that and not a single one of
Of the people I know the people I've like, you know grown up within this fucking in this dark corner of the internet
Not a single one of them was like hey, maybe you shouldn't do that. That's kind of fucked up
Why are you doing that? There's a little racist don't you think not even a little bit, right?
And then, and then I did this and we did the stream and a lot of people tuned in and, and you know, we fundraise with 30 grand in the entire two hour stream or like hour long stream and, you know, that's when I was reminded that we do actually have an incredible impact.
That like we are capable of making you know changes albeit marginal
That was my threat of hope
Okay, it was you guys that were in here 40 grand
It's written there scroll down a little yeah
Not 30 40 grand. Oh, yeah, that was my that was my threat of hope
For sure, I don't really get touchy feely nowadays as much but
But that's what I was like, damn, you know, we still have the capacity to make changes.
Right?
A threat of hope that we can weave together for a better future.
Anyway, good thing Maya's not in here.
as well to hear it because she sucks at basketball
education non-profit it's so sick this place is
fucking dope guys this was so much fun I had a phenomenal time I already thought
it was gonna have a good time but I didn't realize how good of a time I was
gonna have all right well without further ado I think we're shall we begin
this is for you I have to put a blindfold on okay so we're gonna start
Art with a son meeting his first animal blindfolded because animal here. Wait what when he made you
And died that's true
She did already. No, no, I haven't gotten it yet. Oh, okay. All right. You ready?
How this was fucked up. You're gonna feel it. Don't freak out like don't move your hands
Okay, don't like fling in there. Okay. Okay ready. Yeah, what is it? Oh, it's the toad. It's gotta be the toad
Can I look?
No, what this thing is dead
You can buy these now if you want. This is a Winnie Pushey. We also have a Georgie one and a Stompy one and
That's crazy. This is proof of you doing fun collabs resets the mood. Your shit with rage recently was go to. You got to do these collabs more often.
True, I do. I just don't know what to do. Also, I rarely ever have time. I do a lot of
collapse streams, but now with politicians instead, you know, thoughts on shrewshreets,
closing campaign strategy, I saw Austin ox wants to clip. This is why he's sending it
to me. Okay. Look at that. All right. Let's see.
Shreve Street, PA3 candidate is now claiming his opponent, Chris Radd has billions of dollars
in TV ads. I wish the socialist from New York, you know what that means. The Pennsylvania
primaries election is in two days, May 19th.
Yeah, famously that's what that's what socialists
are known for being in power and being powerful people and, you know, attacking little the
little guy backed by the fucking governor of the state and also Senator from New Jersey,
Cory Booker. How many people were watching him? That's what I want to know.
There are days that because so many of you are posting me so many of you are talking about me
that we ever have more people see us and they are and they got millions of dollars in tv ads
but where are the people i want to see the people because i saw the people
street campaign is spamming robo calls i mean that kind of stuff is kind of successful for
like boomer voters i feel like um i will say this he just said he said what he said the
the power of the people is more powerful than people in power.
I mean, it's true, except that's our motto, right?
That's our slogan.
Um, that's, that's what, that's what I say.
Yeah.
Famous socialist strategy of billion dollar ad spends.
Yeah.
Well, we have each and every one of you, the socialist candidate is talking about
how he's going to get everybody help here, but you've been in general, so it's
Yeah, I wonder how I wonder why he hasn't been able to get health care in the general
assembly.
Yeah, because of people like you, man, you because you don't want it like what do you
mean?
Dude, this is my favorite line of attack from centrist Democrats.
Okay, centrist Democrats are fucking awesome.
They literally turn around and straight up say, good things are not possible.
These guys are trying to sell you on a good thing that they will fight for.
I on the other hand will tell you, good things are not possible.
Okay.
Better things are not possible.
They talk, they ain't walkin', none of them walkin'.
Money can't get our votes.
We need folks to come on out.
So, we're three days to go.
It ain't over.
Our district is not for sale.
Have any of them come?
Have you seen those candidates on this block before?
It's not my first time, man.
No.
Have you seen them?
Have you seen them?
And then maybe when it's not election time, they don't even know who to engage with.
And when they ask you, how do we beat all that money?
Just tell them this.
When election day, the streets are coming.
True Street takes aim at New York interlopers trying to influence our election. Bro, you're
in Philadelphia. What do you mean? Dude, these New York interlopers trying to manipulate
elections in Philadelphia. Brother, you're not in like, you're not in Atlanta. You know
what I mean? You're not in like fucking Mississippi. You're in Philadelphia. That's not, it's basically
a short walk over you know what the fuck it's an hour away man I hopped on a train I was
there in an hour that's hilarious
So he called in, he called in aid from New Jersey.
You are basically evil people,
child, the evil people, child,
and we will beat them on the back of your head.
Okay. The demographics of this room is far more valuable,
though I'm going to be honest,
cause like the youth turnout is obviously important
and it actually makes up the difference.
But that demo that Sharif Street,
If he's able to push for turnout in the older black voting block, because this district
is Assad numbers for Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, that is the most important
demo in the district.
We got to get the aunties out.
I hope all of you in the Philly DSA have been knocking on aunties doors, getting them out.
Getting them out to go out and vote for Chris Rabb in the next two days, I'm actually very
excited about this.
I'm very stoked for Rabb, I, you know, versus AOC and Rabb's closing message, let's take
a look.
If you want to change the Democratic Party, we gotta change the kind of Democrats that get elected to serve in Congress.
So good.
Was that auto-tune with the hell?
Oh, he's got Philly. He's got Philly DS ahead.
We'll represent the bluest district in America.
Is it-
Stop! Chris Sab, stop!
Stop making cars universe!
Stop making cars universe references!
to be a democrat who collaborates with special interests and lobbyists or is it going to
be Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Alexandria Ocasio-Cartez?
to democrat who put everything on the line to deliver for the people and communities that
they love.
But people are saying, hey brother, are you thinking about running for congress?
If you do, you can't talk about Palestine.
You're not going to be electable.
You can't do that.
I said, well, if I run without integrity, I've already boxed.
There's only one way to run.
RepRab cannot be boxed.
RepRab has spent five years in the Pennsylvania State House,
and in that time has not taken one dime from corporate lobbyists.
Pennsylvania 3 is the bluest district in America.
So the question here is not whether this community will elect a Democrat.
The question is, what kind of Democrat will this community elect Philadelphia?
So it's time to knock those doors, and it is time to make history.
Tuesday, let's send rap rap to Congress. God bless you and let's do this thing.
Chris Rav4, stop!
Alright, I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done.
Anyway, reminder that if you live in PA3, West Philly, Center City, Morson North, Philly, Germantown, Chesna Hill, et cetera,
you've got a chance to vote on Tuesday for someone who wants to make a difference for you, the country and the world.
Damn, and parts of South Philly.
I mean, I'm super stoked Chris is unbelievably impressive a very exciting
very exciting candidate and
Yeah
All right on that note everybody is seven hours. I'm done. I'll see you tomorrow
Love you guys and
That's it I
Also have to pee
