Welcome to the dumbest smart guy podcast on the
planet. This is the Central Unintelligence Podcast.
An all -new episode of the Central Unintelligence
Podcast. As always, my name is Josh, and I'm
here today with good buddy Adam. Yes, hello.
So, actually, let me pull this up a little. This
episode originally, we tried to record a week
ago. Oh, we're starting over. Yeah, we're just
starting over. Okay. Because I've sort of changed
things a little bit, but I wanted to give the
context. So we originally recorded this episode,
and it was originally called, What is the Strategy
Here in Iran? And now, we're going to talk about
that a little bit. I changed the name of the
episode to how does this affect LeBron's legacy?
My favorite question, dude. You could you could
tie that into anything, dude. And the reason.
The reason is because, like, that's something
that Adam always fucking says, and I fucking
say it now. And it's in regards to, like, if
you're talking about some shit, just anything
random, you just go, yeah, but how does this
affect LeBron's legacy? It's like the Ja Rule
shit, dude. It's like, oh, my God, what is Ja
Rule? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, the invasion
of Iran or the war in Iran. What does Ja Rule
think about this, though? That really matters.
Like, yeah. So and part of that is like, yeah,
it's funny. And also because there is an aspect
of like, OK, yeah, people asking about LeBron's
legacy, like with inserting it into anything.
That's just like a selfish like thing. you know,
to say like, yeah, but how does this affect me?
Right. And so like, that's kind of what we're
also going to talk about because it ties into
stuff that I've been saying for literally years.
And now I think we're really starting to get
into the high realm of possibility, or I should
say probability, a high probability or. decent
probability that that something's going to happen
that's going to really, really affect us here
in the United States. And so in things change
in this conflict on a daily basis, right? Like
literally day to day shit changes. And in relation
to the previous episode we did. Things have changed
even since then when we started. And the reason
why we started the episode last week and then
the power went out, we were like fucking 20 minutes
in and the power went out and my power was out
for like, I don't know, like four or five hours.
So we ended up not getting to finish. And this
is the first chance we've had to like sit down
and actually meet up again to like do more episodes
since then. So in context of what we talked about
last time, just to kind of wrap it up a little
bit, sum it up a little was the. Multitudes of
reports that were running out of interceptor
missiles that were running out of the Patriot
missile system. I briefly went into how the Patriot
missile system costs delivered to the Middle
East between six and twelve million dollars.
And we generally fire at least three projectiles
at whatever it is we're trying to shoot down,
whether it be a missile or whether it be now
a lot of. Other countries that were using it
were being pretty undisciplined with it and they
were using it to shoot down drones, which if
you're going to use it to shoot down like $150
,000 or $200 ,000 drone, you're going to literally
throw $18 million in missiles at it just to hit
it. That's a terrible idea. And that's kind of
why we're in the situation that we're in. Iran
has been shooting off their missiles, right?
And those missiles are a lot cheaper than $12
million fucking dollars a piece. It's not really
costing them much in the way of doing it. So
we're sending $18 to $36 million, depending on
where the location is, to shoot down one missile,
one ballistic missile from Iran or the Houthis
or whoever. Can I throw something? Yeah. All
right, man. What do you think about... For us,
right, to have all these private company, well,
not private companies, but companies like Northrop
Grumman. Yeah. Lockheed and Martin, all this
shit. And now that we're finding out that Iran
is able to do warfare cheaper, who does it really
benefit to. Have like these expensive fighters
now at this point, if warfare has kind of changed.
completely right if it costs like 10 million
dollars to make an f -35 or an f -15 or whatever
it's like are we really using those at this point
and uh for the way that iran is fighting like
kind of putting the universal hurt on all of
us with this oil shit and the straight up hormuz
they don't actually have to do anything like
so i don't know if i know those are kind of like
unrelated things but maybe they are but just
i i feel like uh what does it really benefit
for us to have uh fighter jets that are worth
10 or you know if it's like a billion dollars
or whatever the fuck it costs to make a whole
fleet of those things like so what dude yeah
well exactly well now at this point we are getting
into and this is where we're getting into that
point of Of the military industrial complex.
Like he literally. Pointed that out. And I've
talked about that before. And if you don't fucking
believe me. You can go back and watch Eisenhower's
fucking. Leave an office speech. That he gave
in 1950 something. Or whenever the fuck it was.
And. The reason why is because. Our military
budget for 2027. Is 1 .5 trillion dollars. Is
what they're going to spend. One and a half trillion
dollars. That's one thousand million dollars
plus another five hundred fucking million dollars
or billion. I mean, I'm sorry. That's a thousand
billion plus another five hundred billion. Yeah,
that's fucking crazy. And what are we spending
it on? If you look at the they always say that
thing about the Pentagon never fucking can pass
an audit. And the reason for that is because
there's three companies charging seven thousand
dollars for one single three eighths wrench.
Right. Like, I mean, it's that's kind of like
the level and that's probably an over exaggerated
and a facetious type of answer, but it's not
far off. They're charging for one nut or a rivet
on a plane. It's nine hundred dollars. Right.
And they need two thousand rivets or whatever
on something. And it's nine hundred dollars a
rivet. That's how these weapon systems become
so inflated. And if you look at there's a reason
why all the defense contractor stocks always
go up as soon as they get a contract, because
it's. instantaneous huge amounts of profit because
they do shit on the super super cheap and they
charge 50 times or a hundred times the price
of what it cost to do it right and so this is
when now the face of warfare is changing technology
has the what is it the um The shrinking of technology
and the higher level of access to it that everyone
has now has changed the face of warfare. Drones,
all this shit on the cheap, cheap missiles, cheap
drones. That's the future of warfare. Disinformation,
propaganda. Right. Electronic warfare, you know,
hacking, that kind of stuff. That's free. Hacking
is free. It doesn't cost anything. Yeah, you
got to have some computers and shit, but it's
basically free. Uh, what is there something flying
around? Oh yeah. Don't mind me. I'm just trying
to keep track of mosquito. Cause I think it bit
me. Oh, son of a bitch. Anyways. That's why that's
the drawbacks of the garage studio. Yeah. Um,
but anyways, uh, there was something that recently
just happened and this is a good example of the
Navy just did like an exercise for the submarine
fleet readiness and they did not like the results.
Um, it's, it's coming out basically that the
fleets are not, the submarine fleet is not, for
any kind of major conflict. And an example of
that being our logistical shit has fucking gone
awry because we spend too much money on these
stupid -ass fucking weapons platforms that these
companies could make, yeah, maybe a 3 or 4x profit,
or maybe even a 5 or 10x profit would be cool,
but instead they want to make a 100x profit,
and now we're in this situation where we've got
to spend so much fucking money that we don't
have, and we're really not getting decent quality
stuff anymore. Um, one of the big things with
this and this this shit is there was there was
a I think it was the USS. I don't know. Some
I think it was Ohio or some fucking Midwest state
or city name. I forget which one it was, but
it was a Los Angeles class attack submarine.
And in 2017, it went in dry dock to go get its
service done. And by like 20. they were like,
the Navy basically just said it lost its dive
certification because it had been out of the
water for over two years. The Navy just said,
we don't have any reliable timeline of when this
is going to get in just to get the basic maintenance
on it done. Right. Like the the dry dock maintenance
that needs to be performed on every fucking Navy
ship every like, you know, few years. They didn't
have a time frame of when it could get the service
done. So they just fucking mothballed it and
they just fucking took it out of service. So
we have a really big problem with our naval fleet
not getting the service it needs and having the
backlog of of getting that service done. Everybody
was always the quality, they're pieces of shit.
Yeah, you can have. OK, that's that's been true.
But now coming into the mid 2020s now and we're
really heading towards the late 2020s, the qualitative
advantage that we have had is starting to diminish
greatly. And we're beginning to see that wane.
So getting into, OK, how does this now? affect
us here like how does that affect us in the United
States and how does this affect our how does
this affect LeBron's legacy basically is what
we're fucking talking about and I believe like
right now the current what it's looking like
right now is that sometime in the next couple
of days I think as early as tomorrow which is
Saturday August 1st I think that we're going
to see a the rumor is that there's been strike
packages approved to just decimate Iran's civilian
infrastructure, that they are going to just decimate
that shit and try to get Iran to come back to
the table. And if that doesn't work, which it
won't, then they're going to just basically spend
two weeks. They have another two week plan where
they're just going to basically bomb Iran for
24 hours a day straight for two fucking weeks.
That's that's like the plan. Essentially, that's
that's what's been kind of coming out now. Could
all just be bullshit. Who knows? But with the
way these things have been going, these leaks
have been happening and they turn out to generally
be like true. I wouldn't fucking put it past
them to believe that this is a viable fucking
option. And with that being said, we have had
problems here in the United States in the past
of just. unchecked fucking people coming in,
right? Which, again, I think we should just let
everybody in and we should just have an easy
process that's not, you know, fucking super restrictive.
Just let people come in. It'll all be good. We
won't have to worry about this shit. But I don't
think that it's far -fetched to see... our own
infrastructure here be attacked and not with
a cyber attack i'm talking about i mean that
is possible it has happened in the last day in
the last 24 hours it's come out that seven states
were cyber attacked for their water infrastructure
minnesota being the one that came out as the
first one 30 municipalities including cities
and counties and i don't know what they have
like fucking not counties over there it's like
uh I don't know what they call them, like townships
or whatever, like 30 major areas in of water
systems. Their infrastructure was breached and
it's not really coming out what the extent was,
whether it was service interruptions, whether
it was the, you know, filtration stuff that we
rely heavily upon, if that was affected at all.
But. minnesota and seven other or six other states
supposedly had this happen and the fbi is investigating
it and everyone's pointing to iran trump came
out and said oh it wasn't iran he says it was
the corrupt governor of uh minnesota and you
know yeah basically and he was just blaming it
on the governor and his corruption and that's
why these water uh things went down which when
he says shit like that that makes me then further
believe oh yeah fucking iran definitely probably
had something to do with this now iran is not
like a powerhouse of like what's the word um
technological capability they have competent
cyber attack capabilities but they're not the
best um Our shit here is just so weak and our
infrastructure is so bad that it's not really
difficult to do this type of stuff cyber attack
wise. I am still and one of the things that and
I've started to hear this. And I've been saying
this for years, but I've started to hear this
now in come out and kind of like the starting
to be in the mainstream stuff of people talking
about where a physical attack on the power grid.
Is not out of the realm of possibility that there's
a lot of very competent, high level intelligence
agency people that really this is like the thing
that keeps them up at night is the fact that
our infrastructure is so unprotected. It's so
easily accessible. Maybe just a chain link fence
with barbed wires blocking our major hubs. And
as we've talked about before, there's only about
12 major hubs throughout the whole United States.
that if you take down, really there's like three
to four real important ones, and if you take
one of them down, you will essentially lose power
to a third to the half of the United States.
We'll just lose power if one of those major hubs
is hit. And again, they're not very well guarded.
This is not a secret. All it would take, and
again, the thing coming out is, all it would
take is maybe seven, eight guys with fucking
AK -47s to just go and shoot it up. As we've
talked about in previous episodes regarding China
and the threat that they could potentially pose,
we've talked about that happening here, where
there have been instances where small power stations,
multiple times in multiple different locations
throughout the United States and over the course
of several years, there had been incidences where
there were... little small power areas and power
stations that were attacked by gunfire and nothing
was ever found no no one was ever no no harm
was ever or not no harm but no perpetrators were
ever taken into custody uh because some dudes
just came out of the woods and just opened fire
on it and then left um that is something that's
not out of the realm of possibility that could
happen and are there could there very well be
Couple hundred, you know, Iranian guys that once
we started, once we killed Khomeini back in during
the first trumpet or not Khomeini, general, fuck
the Soleimani, the general that Trump drone struck
or whatever back during his first term. Did they
just finally say, OK, we've been preparing for
a conflict with the United States or the West
essentially for the last 47 years. Maybe we need
to start, instead of just focusing on defense,
maybe we need to focus on an offensive capability.
And I would not put it out of the realm of possibility
that they sent some people over here. Again,
it's not hard to cross the border, either northern
or southern, and it's not hard to come across,
you know, just come off of a container ship going
up one of the coasts on a small little dinghy
craft and then just land anywhere along the eastern
or western seaboard. and just walk right in with
backpacks and fucking shit full of AK -47s and
fucking ammunition. It's not difficult. And cash.
It's not out of the realm of possibility. And
I'm starting to believe that it's going to be
something that could very well likely happen.
And as we've talked about in the past, if that
is something that happens here... it's going
to be years before that power is able to come
back on. I mean, we're talking literal years.
And now, maybe even never. Because guess who
controls all the rare earth elements that are
needed to make those fucking Transformers and
to make those things? It's China. They now have
their finger on the tap to be able to say, and
they're already doing it to us. No, no, you guys
can't have this. We're not going to let you guys
have this now. Hell, at this point, China doesn't
even need to really do anything to us. This this
whole Iran situation is possibly going to play
out to where, yeah, if we had something happen
here like that and a third or half of the country
lost power or fuck, God forbid, the whole fucking
country loses power. Self -inflicted. Yeah, it
would be a self -inflicted wound at this point
because we started this bullshit. And granted,
the American people. Most of us are not in favor
of this fucking conflict and had nothing to do
with it. But we will be suffering the consequences
of that. We will be suffering the consequences
of the actions of people in charge. And that's
why it's important to fucking, you know, not
fall for the bullshit. Everybody fell for the
bullshit. I hope people learn from this. Hey,
man. No new wars. Gonna end wars. All this stuff.
Now here we are. Fucking 18 months in. about
to fucking go into a full -blown hot well we
basically started world war three that's basically
what i think this will be this will be like okay
the russia invading ukraine was the beginnings
of it was the inklings of it this middle eastern
conflict is starting to suck in more countries
in the middle east the gulf countries starting
to get on board with stuff the hooties or the
hooties in yemen I'm sure Allah is what they
go by or whatever over there. That's their organization.
They're the they've now made this a regional
conflict. And by by by doing such, it's now going
to make this a global conflict soon enough. And
I think once we start hitting the Iranian infrastructure,
that's when it's going to start getting real
fucking ugly. And I hope. My hope is that this
talk of all this shit is just them doing such
talking shit. It's just running their mouth to
try to get Iran to come back to the table and
negotiate. I don't think negotiation is in the
cards anymore. Like, I don't think the Iranians
even care. They've literally sat and prepared
for the last 47 years for this exact scenario
to happen. There are. underground cities that
are just like little honeycombs all throughout
their fucking vast land that are just just there
that's what they've been doing the last 47 years
they've been building this shit for this exact
fucking like contingency and we've walked into
the trap and now they're fucking they're doing
it they're they're the contingency is working
the regime has survived a full decapitation strike
it has survived The majority of its upper leadership
at the time the war started being fucking killed.
And it's still going. It's still happening. So
that's what they've been waiting on. And I don't
believe for a second that they just would have
been focusing on that. So I think that if we
just get up and walk away, that's what I think
the move is. I think the solution to all this,
at least for the United States to be better for
us, is just to get up and walk away. Now, what
does that do to us globally? Well, that ends
the U .S. hedge money altogether. It's done.
The petrodollar, done. We are past the point
of no return where no matter what happens now,
we will feel the effects of it and it will be
bad. It depends how long this continues, how
bad it's going to be. But we're already past
the point of no return. The petrodollar is fucking
toast. This has now proven that we cannot do
what we said we can do. And unless we do completely
end up just decimating the fucking Iranian regime
and reopening the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab
al -Mandab Strait by force, if we don't go in
at anything short of that, we're toast. So even
if we get up now and walk away, the U .S. dollar's
dead. The petrodollar's done. Because now, what
we're looked at by the rest of the world is now,
okay, these guys kind of started this shit, and
now they can't really finish it. We've been paying
them and basically going along with their scheme
for protection. Well, if they can't even fucking
open up this fucking one waterway, how the fuck
are we, what are we doing here? We need to go
to somewhere that's safer or somewhere that's
a safe bet. And that's China. That's the yuan.
That's the bricks, whatever the fuck they're
going to come up with. And people are already,
countries are already starting to turn away from
the petrodollar. Now, the Saudis are heavily
relying upon it. The Qataris, the Omanis, the
Emiratis, they're generally pretty heavily. We've
gotten them into the system, the petrodollar
system, and they're reliant. So they're probably
going to heavily be getting involved if this
thing continues, because if it if it fails and
we don't take down Iran completely, then their
countries are probably going to be screwed for
a while. And they're going to have major financial
problems just like we're going to have here.
And that major financial problems are the death
knell of any Middle Eastern regime, because how
they usually take care of it, they just pay the
populace more money. But you got to have money
to do that. And if the fucking petrodollar turns
to shit, their country currency turns to shit.
And now they can't fucking give anybody more
money because it doesn't matter how much money
you give. You're fucked. And so why they pivoted
to tourism. Yeah, that is because they well,
they realize that, well, this this this game
is probably up, but they're still going to have
the problems. This shit is still going down.
And if you look at an indicator of this shit,
if you look at the guy who's the secretary of
the Treasury, Scott Besant. He always looks like
he's fucking worried or he's scared or he's about
to take like he can't shit or something like
he's constipated or whatever. He always has this
fucking look of consternation on his face. And
I think the reason for that is because he sees
what's going on from the financial perspective.
And who knows if he. understands or knows what's
going on on the the conflict or the the the fucking
kinetic side but that's kind of irrelevant he
can see what the results are on the fucking financial
side and and i think he's genuinely fucking concerned
because this shit's all about to come this house
of cards that we've built is about to come crashing
fucking down yeah and that's gonna be a fucking
gonna be a problem It's going to be a fucking
problem. And in the United States, we are going
to go through. And here's the thing who I don't
know. I they were saying about how the there
was some fucking indicator. I forget which one
it was, but they were talking about how. Oh,
yeah. If like this, if this thing, if the inflation
or something happens or hits a certain point,
then we're basically, you know. Going into an
unprecedented economic collapse that would be
worse than the Great Depression and it would
be on a global scale. And that's exactly literally
where we're headed. Like we're literally headed
towards that right now as we speak with this
conflict continuing to keep going. And I don't
know if people realize it or see it, but like
today alone, you know, I just I was just driving
through driving around and the cost of diesel
here in Southern California is almost eight dollars
a gallon again. gasoline is getting back up above
$6 a gallon again. And we're getting closer to
that point where now we have 308 million barrels
left in the strategic reserve. And as everything
that's kind of now been starting to come out,
300 million barrels is that kind of cutoff where
now we start getting into the problems of being
able to refill it and being able to extract it.
And the one thing that I didn't think about,
which was I heard today was some guy kind of
just brought it up and very briefly was that
the quality of that low of that 300 million,
that bottom 300 million barrels has been sitting
in there for a long time. And the quality of
it. Is very poor. So once we get below 300 million
barrels. Now you start being able to not really
do much with it. Now you can't really make those
advanced jet fuels. That we use to make it out
of crude oil. You can't really make regular gasoline
out of it anymore. It's kind of a stretch to
even make fucking diesel fuel out of it. So we
only got 8 million barrels left. And we dropped
another I think like 4 or 5 million this week.
So we've got probably another week or two. Before
we start getting into the, okay, we're releasing
the shit that's bad. So we are probably looking
at like August, September. Probably September
being when the fuel storages really start being
a problem. And there not being commercial availability.
And the big thing is jet fuel. That's the big
thing that's going to hurt us here. People ain't
going to be able to fly. Because you can't fly
if there ain't no fucking gas. Like if there
ain't no jet fuel, the plane can't go. So I have
a feeling we're going to start seeing a lot of
fucking problems start hitting when it comes
to that in the next couple of months. And that's
my thought and prediction, unless we can go in
and just fucking by force open up the straight
and get everything flowing. It's not going to
be an instant fix. There's still going to be
a little bit of strife and trouble, but it'll
be better than nothing. So at any rate, it will
affect us. It's going it's getting to that point
now where this conflict. Afghanistan, Iraq, that
shit really didn't fucking affect us here much
at home, right? And there is not a generation
that was really alive to see a war affect them
here in the United States at home, to affect
us here. Vietnam, I mean, didn't really have
any economic or whatever. Yeah, we had people
protesting about peace and shit like that, but
there were really no major negative side effects.
of vietnam right like we didn't have any major
economic problems probably world war ii would
have been the one that we the last generation
that saw strife here due to a conflict Was probably
World War II. Because yes there were shortages
of stuff. You had to start growing your own food.
That's why they had the whole victory gardens
thing. Because they had a shortage. Everything
needed to go to the war effort. So cool. Grow
your own food. That was what the government's
fucking solution was. Just grow your own shit
in your yard. So we can send it overseas. All
the other shit overseas to the troops. And feed
them. So yeah that was people that were alive.
During World War II. And can remember. There's
very few of them left. So. Not a whole lot of
people in the United States remember what it
feels like to be affected in that way. And I
think a lot of people are in for a rude awakening.
And it's that meme that we always say, all the
people who voted for fucking Trump, oh no, the
consequences of my own actions. That's exactly
what it is. It's the consequences of your own
actions. Now they're coming back to bite us all
in the ass. Because you guys thought it was a
cool guy thing and you fell for the tricks. Drink
the Kool -Aid. Yep, drink the Kool -Aid. So anyways,
I don't see it getting better. And my prediction
is that this weekend, I feel like this weekend
is when it's going to hit. We're going to start
hitting those fucking targets, those infrastructure
targets, and shit's going to pop off. I feel
like Saturday is probably like tomorrow night.
I feel like it's going to happen. But we'll see.
We'll see how it goes. Hopefully they're just
talking shit. So anyways, I think that's all
I had to say about this. Do you have anything
else you want to add? oh man i have no idea i've
been thinking about it where um i'm curious to
know if nature itself or maybe it's just humans
doing it because it's our in our nature to do
it but fuck man i do wonder if it's that thing
that everybody says it's like oh yeah the uh
every so often we have a calling event like what
what if what if uh every hundred years we really
do have a calling event because the population
at large is so untenable for humans that it just
becomes problematic and i'm not saying i don't
know if like nations organize for things to go
uh For them to plan as if things could go wrong.
Specifically for the U .S., right? There's 330
million people. I don't even know what the actual
number is of human beings within the United States
that are citizens. So what do you do to curb
our population? You instigate a war to crash
the economy. You allow corporations to purchase
damn near everything and make obscene amount
of money or obscene amount of money or obscene.
Is it obscene or obscene? Obscene, yeah. Obscene
amount of money. Obscene amounts of money. Obscene
amounts of money. You have private corporations
buying private farms. And then. You basically
invalidate our whole political system and have
corporations kind of dictate what happens with
it because they could basically influence any
politician to do exactly what they want, which
is exactly what has happened. We're becoming
kind of like a dysfunctional government at this
point. I mean, it's long overdue. It was, like,
a long time coming, basically. But all that really
to say that just within exclusively the United
States, you really didn't need to have mass murderings
or anything like that. I mean, that also happens
to shootings and all that shit. But, like, if
you really want to put the hurt on people, do
it economically, and they'll fucking find a way
to kill themselves or do shit like that. I mean,
because... It's been said that the number one
reason for crime is usually poverty. So it's
like when people go out and riot and do all like
you're really inciting people to commit crime,
violence, all that shit. So here we are. We're
going to have that scenario if it was indirectly
or directly. influenced by, I don't know if you
want to call it the elite or the Illuminati or
whatever the fuck you want to call it. And then
maybe it's not them at all. Maybe it's just kind
of like the natural order of the world that it
just happens that way. But like, just speaking
about the U S specifically, like intentionally
crashing the economy for, for people just to
really fucking feel it and potentially die. Like
we don't, we didn't need guns, dude. Like that's
just going to be, I'm sure this whole funding
of like snap benefits being taken and wick and
all this shit. That's going to hurt and kill
a lot of kids already. Taking any kind of Medicare,
another calling situation. Yeah, so I don't know.
Well, I think that you're right. I think you're
right on the money, and I think that it all ties
in. If you make it so that people can't afford
to fucking eat, and then you turn off the fucking
power, that's a recipe for fucking disaster.
And the problem is we're too fucking stupid as
a whole. To realize what's going on and to unite
together. And I've said this before a thousand
times. It doesn't matter. Black, white, yellow,
green, Jew, non -Jew, Muslim, whatever. The fucking
biggest dividing color is green. It's money.
It's the haves and the have -nots. And there's
always more of us have -nots, the peasant class.
There's way more of us than there is of the elite
ruling class. And at least here in America, we
own the most guns per capita of any fucking country
on the planet. And the whole reason our whole
existence was created was like, hey, if the government
starts fucking up, you guys should have these
things so you can fucking kill them all and take
over and reset this shit. That's the whole point.
And here we are. Even fucking the Civil War back
in the 1800s, it wasn't over. It was over fucking
business. It was a it was economic. It was a
business fucking reason because of slavery. And
they didn't want to give up the slaves because
they wanted the free fucking labor so they can
make huge profits. That corporatism was already
existing back then in fucking the 1800s. It was
just a plantation owner instead of a corporation.
Right. So it's it's become a much bigger and
much worse monster than even that. And so if
we all could just figure it out and band together
and realize, oh, that's the problem. It's the
it's the fucking top one percent or five percent
or whatever. Those are the fucking that's the
problem. Cool. We got to get rid of that shit.
We got to get rid of these huge corporations
and we got to stop their era. We don't need to
get rid of them, maybe, but we need to stop their
influence. Right. And so I think that it all
ties in to put a nice little tight bow on it
is this is coming. This is the coming end of
an empire. Right. Our American empire is coming
to an end. This grand experiment of the United
States was fucking great for 200 fucking years,
250 years almost. And now it has kind of started
to go off of the fucking rails. Yeah, it makes
me wonder if it was too big to work, like if
it should have just been territories like I don't
want to like point to the movie Civil War, but
I don't know. Maybe the union was just too much
of a big dream. Maybe it should have been like
Europe where. every individual country is its
own state and nation but there was a collective
I mean I guess it would be like in my estimation
it would be like Cascadia as people have mentioned
like Seattle Washington California maybe Arizona
and Nevada would be included in that yeah that
would be one region and then Texas would be its
own thing yeah but we all would operate in similar
mindsets I mean if people in Texas and Oklahoma
and Louisiana and fucking whatever adjacent states
want to align and do that. Maybe that should
have been the way to go from the get -go because
as it is right now, it ain't fucking working.
It ain't fucking working. And it ain't going
to matter soon enough, it seems like. So anyways,
all right, well, that's all I had. So you got
anything else you want to add? All right, we'll
call it a day. Go find us on all our shit. You
know where to go. We'll catch you guys on...
