uation is going to lie. Have you ever worked for a big corporation? They're all liars. Every department, every manager, they're all lying all the time. All the time. It never turns off. Do you know why? They make more money by lying. That's the whole story. Yeah a corporate incentive structure is whoever does the best work and people notice. The noticing is the important part. They get the most m…

people narcissists? Narcissists is literally built into the name. If you go online and say what is the main characteristic of a narcissist they'll blame you for being a narcissist. It's like their main go-to. It's like what they're famous for. Bet you didn't know that did you.

All right so if Musk sues the ADL in a business that would be one of the best things for the country. And I do wonder if they know that they are an existential threat to America itself. Would you agree that free speech is fundamentally important for the ongoing health of the country? You would right? And would you agree that they're getting rid of free speech as quickly as they can making it a sort of a one-party speech is okay? Yeah they're getting rid of the most important part of the country. They're doing it publicly, vigorously and transparently. You can all watch it yourself. You don't even have to wonder. Yeah so they don't you know they get rid of some bad speech but even Greenwald is that his name in 2016 there's any of him saying that they're not trying to ban anybody's speech. They're only trying to replace bad speech with good speech because that's how you battle bad speech. And then they went after the advertisers on X exactly the opposite of what they say they would do. I tried to actually just stop it and make it economically impossible. Ruin reputations. You know defame people like me.

All right so Trump or Musk must said that he would release all the ADL files and documentations so we should be able to see the contacts the ADL made with old Twitter so we can see what they were trying to ban and why. Do you think I'll be on the list? It depends. It depends when the list was put together I guess. They came for the turds and I did not speak out because I was not a turd. That's funny.

So yeah the ADL is an existential threat to the country and you know what they would say about that. I must be a racist. Guess what? That's what they say to that.

All right Alexander Vindman the least credible person in America he said that companies that continued to advertise on X are sponsoring anti-Semitism. Who's apparent to me that Elon Musk tweeting against the ADL and Jay Greenblatt is targeting them for harassment. Now is that the narcissism thing? The ADL is an entity that targets people for harassment. That's sort of their entire job. And he's saying that if you complain about them targeting you for harassment you've targeted them for harassment. Do you see how all this works? If they attack you and you complain about it then you're twice as bad as you were before they even attacked you because you've complained about it too.

Yes I've called Trump a grandiose narcissist and I've called myself. If you'd like to argue about narcissism you should go study up but don't just shout stupid things in the comments. So learn that there's two types. Learn the difference and then come back. But don't just yell things with narcissist in the sentence that you don't know anything about. You gotta get a little more depth in your understanding and then you can come back.

All right sounds more like circular logic. Hmm what is Vindman's deal? Well I don't know but he doesn't act like he's on the side of America. I mean sometimes you say oh it's a different opinion but it doesn't act like it's just a different opinion. He acts like there's something going on that we don't understand.

All right are you loving the story about the 15 well-dressed Nazis in Florida who Rolling Stone reported they were DeSantis followers because they mocked DeSantis and said fuck DeSantis and so the Rolling Stone supporter says they must be DeSantis supporters because they say fuck DeSantis. So that that's the state of your news.

But let me ask you this. If you think that the Nazis, those 15 well-dressed ones who have some kind of name I don't care about, if you think that it's not organic who do you think's behind it? Go who do you think would be behind it if it's not organic? You say the CIA. Why would they do that? No it's not the ADL. I doubt it's the ADL. FBI you think. There's one entity that you have not considered isn't there? One obvious entity that you've not considered. Thank you. How are you not getting this? This is weird. Your suggestions are all completely, there's like a blind spot here that's fascinating. You really don't see it.

Yeah some of you are saying Trump and I would say more generally Republicans. Here's what we know about them. That they prefer Biden over Republicans and they're putting on a public event which reminds you of what's it remind you of? Do they remind you of anything? They're well dressed. They've got really nice flags. Charlottesville. Yeah it reminds you of Charlottesville doesn't it? Except isn't it weird that they're like opposite of Charlottesville? Isn

't it funny that there would be neo-Nazis who would be marching like really the opposite of Charlottesville because they're pro-Biden and Biden actually ran for office on the fine people hoax because Democrats don't know that that's a hoax. They think it's real. And then now there's this other thing that looks very suspicious that looks like it's almost like mocking the Charlottesville event. It's…
