WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.220 So I told those kids, it's a tactical fanny pack, 00:00:02.339 --> 00:00:04.759 and that shut them up. Hello, everybody. Thank 00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:06.459 you all so much for listening to Memingless, 00:00:06.620 --> 00:00:08.380 where we look into internet nonsense and try 00:00:08.380 --> 00:00:10.019 to understand what in the hell it all means. 00:00:10.179 --> 00:00:13.740 I am your humble host, Nate, and should I invite 00:00:13.740 --> 00:00:20.079 Bobbie? Too late. I'm in. All right. Bobbie. Bobble. 00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.859 Bobification. Yeah, Bobification. It'll make 00:00:26.859 --> 00:00:30.379 sense later. Okay. I. I have a meme for you to 00:00:30.379 --> 00:00:32.039 look at, and I would like you to describe to 00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:34.039 our listeners what it looks like and how it reads. 00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:36.759 I'll do my best. All right, so the Bible changes 00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:38.299 life. Is this supposed to be the same woman in 00:00:38.299 --> 00:00:40.640 five different poses? Yeah, yeah. Is that the 00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:43.780 implication here? Yeah. Okay, so there's five 00:00:43.780 --> 00:00:46.920 different women here, and one is a leggy blonde 00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:49.700 in a skimpy little outfit, and then you've got 00:00:49.700 --> 00:00:52.299 a leggy blonde in a slightly less skimpy outfit. 00:00:53.140 --> 00:00:55.820 Anyway, she's bending over to pick up a book 00:00:55.820 --> 00:00:57.380 that she maybe dropped on the floor. It must 00:00:57.380 --> 00:00:59.929 be the Bible. Oh, she's found the Bible. Is that 00:00:59.929 --> 00:01:02.289 what's going on? Yeah. I think that's the implication 00:01:02.289 --> 00:01:04.569 with the whole Bible changes life thing. Yeah. 00:01:04.569 --> 00:01:07.650 And then in the third pose here, she's standing 00:01:07.650 --> 00:01:09.989 there looking at it. In the fourth pose, she's 00:01:09.989 --> 00:01:12.430 reading it. And then in the fifth pose, she's 00:01:12.430 --> 00:01:15.189 now, oh, her hair has changed color. It goes 00:01:15.189 --> 00:01:18.730 from blonde to brown to black at the end there. 00:01:18.790 --> 00:01:23.890 And she looks more like a student than a prostitute. 00:01:24.109 --> 00:01:28.269 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like she looks more like. I 00:01:28.269 --> 00:01:32.409 don't know, I guess like modest, more reserved 00:01:32.409 --> 00:01:35.989 or whatever. But yeah, it's our favorite kind 00:01:35.989 --> 00:01:39.290 of meme, the Bible thumping kind. Actually, my 00:01:39.290 --> 00:01:40.810 favorite kind of meme is the kind that makes 00:01:40.810 --> 00:01:43.030 some kind of bizarre factual claim that I can 00:01:43.030 --> 00:01:47.069 debunk with actual sources. But this meme does 00:01:47.069 --> 00:01:49.370 not appear to be that. It doesn't appear to make 00:01:49.370 --> 00:01:52.829 any kind of factual claim. I guess the Bible 00:01:52.829 --> 00:01:55.810 changes life is like. That's a statement, but, 00:01:55.890 --> 00:01:57.890 like, how do you disprove that, you know, or 00:01:57.890 --> 00:02:00.750 how do you debunk whatever's going on with that 00:02:00.750 --> 00:02:02.750 claim? It's possible it has changed people exactly 00:02:02.750 --> 00:02:05.790 like this, yeah. So I want to ask you first, 00:02:05.849 --> 00:02:07.269 is there anything that seems really odd about 00:02:07.269 --> 00:02:10.830 this sequence of images on the meme? Like, odd 00:02:10.830 --> 00:02:15.210 about the Bible. So the Bible changes her, right? 00:02:15.490 --> 00:02:20.409 Okay. Is there anything that seems a little not 00:02:20.409 --> 00:02:24.990 typical for, like, a Christian? I'm not sure 00:02:24.990 --> 00:02:28.389 where you're getting that. So, like, the first 00:02:28.389 --> 00:02:30.229 thing that stood out to me that made me want 00:02:30.229 --> 00:02:32.569 to look into this meme was that the girls form 00:02:32.569 --> 00:02:36.629 all the way to the right after full Bible transformation. 00:02:36.789 --> 00:02:38.710 Oh, yeah, she seems to be shorter. Well, no, 00:02:38.789 --> 00:02:40.590 she took off those shoes. She's not wearing the 00:02:40.590 --> 00:02:43.930 shoes, yeah. Okay. Yeah, no, but, like, after 00:02:43.930 --> 00:02:49.310 Biblefication, she, like, she looks kind of cool, 00:02:49.409 --> 00:02:52.550 you know? Like, she looks, like, trendy or artsy, 00:02:52.550 --> 00:02:54.729 hipster type, you know? Her hair's put up in 00:02:54.729 --> 00:02:57.669 somewhat of a casual way, and she walks coolly 00:02:57.669 --> 00:03:00.569 with the book in her hand by her side. And I 00:03:00.569 --> 00:03:02.789 say book because another thing that was odd to 00:03:02.789 --> 00:03:05.169 me, there's nothing on it that indicates that 00:03:05.169 --> 00:03:07.210 it's a Bible. That's true. It could be any book. 00:03:07.330 --> 00:03:09.490 Yeah. I mean, you're just going from the headline 00:03:09.490 --> 00:03:12.229 at the top, I guess. Yeah, yeah. So, like, typically, 00:03:12.349 --> 00:03:14.689 to represent the Bible in the most simplistic 00:03:14.689 --> 00:03:16.710 way, there would be, like, a cross on it, you 00:03:16.710 --> 00:03:20.580 know, or however that they want to. But this 00:03:20.580 --> 00:03:22.699 Bible has nothing on it to distinguish it from 00:03:22.699 --> 00:03:26.500 any book. No. Any other book. And she looks like 00:03:26.500 --> 00:03:28.879 educated. Right. She looks like she's attending 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:30.960 school and she walks with the book by her side. 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:32.740 You know, like you said, she looks like a student. 00:03:32.939 --> 00:03:35.500 Looks like she's wearing a backpack. Yeah. Yeah. 00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.740 And and, you know, you wouldn't think like like 00:03:38.740 --> 00:03:41.219 where the backpack come from regarding the Bible. 00:03:41.300 --> 00:03:42.960 You know, like none of that. None of that seems 00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:44.919 to add up because like if this was drawn for 00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:47.840 this meme. Why add the backpack? Well, maybe 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:49.479 she's Catholic and that's all the baggage that 00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:54.000 comes with being a Catholic. That checks out, 00:03:54.039 --> 00:04:03.479 I think. The reason why these seemingly insignificant 00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:06.560 things matter when addressing this meme is that 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:08.919 there are a number of things that odd with a 00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:14.050 typical Christian meme. Like her hair. gets darker 00:04:14.050 --> 00:04:16.990 in this meme when most Christian memes would 00:04:16.990 --> 00:04:19.110 have them, the hair getting lighter, you know, 00:04:19.110 --> 00:04:22.050 like they would like, like look more like I've 00:04:22.050 --> 00:04:24.129 got, I actually have an example of this. So I'm 00:04:24.129 --> 00:04:26.569 going to put them like more angelic. Yeah. Yeah. 00:04:26.569 --> 00:04:29.470 I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Like more like what white 00:04:29.470 --> 00:04:31.990 Christians thinks angelic looks like, you know, 00:04:31.990 --> 00:04:35.459 whereas like, I think I've read some. Descriptions 00:04:35.459 --> 00:04:37.540 of angels in the Bible. They're crazy looking. 00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:38.920 They sound fucking terrifying. They got like 00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:41.040 a ton of eyes and they got wings. Yeah, like 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:43.040 a thousand horns and all this shit. And those 00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.939 aren't just the demonic kind. They're just freaky. 00:04:46.019 --> 00:04:50.480 They're freaky sounding. Real imagination on 00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:53.439 the people who wrote that thing. So I actually 00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:57.339 have an example of a Christian meme that's a 00:04:57.339 --> 00:04:59.579 little more typical. So the image is on this 00:04:59.579 --> 00:05:05.199 one that says before Jesus and after Jesus. But, 00:05:05.220 --> 00:05:07.160 like, you see how the pictures look, right? Yeah. 00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:11.819 Yeah, so, like, this meme depicts, like, a fun 00:05:11.819 --> 00:05:14.040 -looking, gothic -looking girl being transformed 00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:17.220 clearly by AI, by the way. That right picture 00:05:17.220 --> 00:05:19.959 looks AI as fuck. It's a lot easier to tell, 00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.579 you know, when it's on a close -up screen. The 00:05:23.579 --> 00:05:25.759 left side depicts kind of a fun -looking, gothic 00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:28.220 -looking girl being transformed clearly by AI 00:05:28.220 --> 00:05:32.980 into a light, brunette -haired... typical average 00:05:32.980 --> 00:05:36.199 looking kind of probably boring human, you know, 00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:40.040 like just really typical looking just, they make 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.139 them more boring. Whereas the, the, the sequence 00:05:43.139 --> 00:05:45.399 of images kind of makes her look more hip, you 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.899 know, kind of more cool, more casual. Um, and 00:05:48.899 --> 00:05:50.439 I thought, well, maybe there's something to find 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.439 out here in the, in the transformation meme, 00:05:52.540 --> 00:05:55.259 everything is a little darker and muted with 00:05:55.259 --> 00:05:57.959 the transformation of our main meme girl. There's 00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:00.959 something that makes the transformation at odds. 00:06:01.629 --> 00:06:03.689 With a lot of Christian transformation memes. 00:06:04.170 --> 00:06:06.790 And that's, you know, they're more likely to 00:06:06.790 --> 00:06:09.110 become blonder, lighter hair. Well, this girl 00:06:09.110 --> 00:06:12.069 does not. She's more likely to become become 00:06:12.069 --> 00:06:14.910 bustier looking, whereas this girl becomes less 00:06:14.910 --> 00:06:18.069 physically endowed. And in fact, goes from having 00:06:18.069 --> 00:06:20.670 very large breasts on display to having smaller 00:06:20.670 --> 00:06:22.449 breasts, mostly covered kind of by a sweater. 00:06:23.509 --> 00:06:27.740 So she is like. In the typical Christian meme, 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:30.180 she's more likely to become more trad wife looking, 00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:32.860 while this girl looks more casual looking as 00:06:32.860 --> 00:06:39.519 she transforms. And so in the trad wife memes, 00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:41.699 she's more likely, or the transformation memes 00:06:41.699 --> 00:06:44.019 for the Christian ones, that she's more likely 00:06:44.019 --> 00:06:46.759 to be wearing just as much makeup, if not more, 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:51.420 whereas the girl may be foregoing makeup altogether 00:06:51.420 --> 00:06:55.959 in this meme. Christian memes are more likely 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.060 to represent the girl as surrounded by children, 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:00.819 next to a husband, wearing a full dress, bra, 00:07:01.060 --> 00:07:04.939 full makeup, even though she's going to be all 00:07:04.939 --> 00:07:08.579 made up and dressed up and everything, even though 00:07:08.579 --> 00:07:10.240 she isn't leaving the fucking house and should 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:12.699 not be treated like she is in the fucking workplace 00:07:12.699 --> 00:07:14.779 in her own fucking home because that is madness. 00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:19.639 I mean, it's like, okay, all right. So I'm going 00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:22.699 to talk to the people who actually, who... share 00:07:22.699 --> 00:07:25.160 those kind of memes right okay the ones the not 00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:28.120 this one not this meme but like the ones where 00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.980 they you know they show like the trad wife like 00:07:30.980 --> 00:07:33.180 it's somehow like an improvement or whatever 00:07:33.180 --> 00:07:36.480 okay all right so to those dudes all right just 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:38.120 think about this for a moment dudes who actually 00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:40.600 want a trad wife as seen on the internet they 00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:42.060 should be listening especially closely right 00:07:42.060 --> 00:07:44.360 now because i'm going to talk to these guys directly 00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:48.120 and let's call their representative ron hey ron 00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:50.379 Just think about how frustrated some of you act 00:07:50.379 --> 00:07:52.620 when you come home from a long day of work and 00:07:52.620 --> 00:07:54.899 are immediately given something to do. You flip 00:07:54.899 --> 00:07:57.139 your fucking lid. Your work day's over, right? 00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:00.000 You're at home. Home is for relaxing. Ron, how 00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:02.199 would you feel if you had to stay in your suit 00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.259 all fucking day at home? Or your work boots? 00:08:04.899 --> 00:08:07.639 How would you feel if you had to be on alert 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.199 in your home for commands and shit? That's fucking 00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:13.839 nuts. Even if she's a stay -at -home mom who 00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:15.540 doesn't leave the house for a job, she should 00:08:15.540 --> 00:08:18.579 feel relaxed at home, especially at the end of 00:08:18.579 --> 00:08:20.500 the day. Ron, could you imagine if you're at 00:08:20.500 --> 00:08:22.500 home all day, knowing you have to cook a meal 00:08:22.500 --> 00:08:24.500 for your boss who's coming into your home to 00:08:24.500 --> 00:08:26.519 make sure your house was clean, and stay the 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:28.860 night, and probably fuck you without any foreplay? 00:08:30.139 --> 00:08:32.539 And you know what, Ron? He's not wearing a condom. 00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:34.779 And he'll blame you. He'll blame you when you 00:08:34.779 --> 00:08:37.259 get pregnant. And you better not get fat, Ron. 00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:39.659 The celebrity women on TV get pregnant without 00:08:39.659 --> 00:08:42.019 getting fat. What's wrong with you, Ron? And 00:08:42.019 --> 00:08:43.539 you have to keep the baby no matter what, no 00:08:43.539 --> 00:08:46.240 exceptions, Ron, unless your boss doesn't want 00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:48.759 the baby. Then you're going to have to get an 00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:50.820 abortion in secret in another state because your 00:08:50.820 --> 00:08:53.360 boss decided that you vote pro -life because 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.840 Fox News told your boss that your health was 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:58.779 his choice, which means no abortions ever, no 00:08:58.779 --> 00:09:01.279 exceptions, no matter what. 100%, absolutely 00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:03.639 no abortions, never, ever, ever, unless he wants 00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:07.159 you to have one. And after he has his way with 00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:10.320 you and you spend all night hoping that... Whole 00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:12.679 pregnant thing doesn't happen. You better be 00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:15.159 up before he is. Showered and dressed and made 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:17.980 up with coffee and breakfast because you're still 00:09:17.980 --> 00:09:20.139 on the fucking clock, Ron. He doesn't not pay 00:09:20.139 --> 00:09:24.620 you to stand around. Anyway, I digress angrily. 00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:27.659 Our meme doesn't go with that trad wife thing. 00:09:27.899 --> 00:09:32.779 Nope. So... Out of breath from yelling at Ron. 00:09:34.019 --> 00:09:36.980 Anyway, so... God damn it, Ron. God damn it, 00:09:36.980 --> 00:09:41.190 Ron. Fucking asshole. Fucking conservative asshole. 00:09:41.789 --> 00:09:43.950 Anyway, so our meme doesn't do the whole trad 00:09:43.950 --> 00:09:45.570 wipe thing, so I was pretty much immediately 00:09:45.570 --> 00:09:48.070 certain that the image wasn't originally created 00:09:48.070 --> 00:09:51.830 for this Christian -themed meme. And I found 00:09:51.830 --> 00:09:55.730 the artist who made the images, and I was pleasantly 00:09:55.730 --> 00:09:57.730 surprised because I get to talk about one of 00:09:57.730 --> 00:09:59.289 my favorite things that was in the news recently, 00:09:59.509 --> 00:10:02.289 which I will get to after we talk a little bit 00:10:02.289 --> 00:10:04.570 about the artist who originally made this drawing. 00:10:05.389 --> 00:10:08.789 So, the artist goes by Swordamid on DeviantArt, 00:10:08.889 --> 00:10:11.840 and... It's part of a lineup of art on the subject 00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:16.019 called bimbofication. Bimbofication is a type 00:10:16.019 --> 00:10:18.879 of erotica wherein someone transforms, usually 00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:21.399 becoming bustier and curvier, the clothes become 00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:25.299 tighter and more revealing. Pre - and post -transformation 00:10:25.299 --> 00:10:28.919 images are like two completely different people. 00:10:29.220 --> 00:10:32.279 In this specific case, the process is reversed, 00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:36.460 so this is like de -bimbofication. I read that 00:10:36.460 --> 00:10:38.879 the artist was commissioned to make this specific 00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:41.179 piece by someone who wanted to see the transformation 00:10:41.179 --> 00:10:44.860 in reverse. The two ends of the spectrum looked 00:10:44.860 --> 00:10:47.220 like two vastly different people, perhaps not 00:10:47.220 --> 00:10:48.980 even people who would typically be seen hanging 00:10:48.980 --> 00:10:52.480 out together. Except this next image is something 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:54.860 that Sordom had posted on DeviantArt in June, 00:10:54.940 --> 00:10:58.600 and it makes me very happy. It's like the old 00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:00.399 times. Remember I used to show you all the memes 00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:05.629 on my phone and everything? Oh yeah. This episode's 00:11:05.629 --> 00:11:09.529 going to take a lot of editing. It sucks. Or 00:11:09.529 --> 00:11:11.529 you could just leave it in. Just like a nice 00:11:11.529 --> 00:11:14.190 long episode. Oh, no. It's going to be too much 00:11:14.190 --> 00:11:19.830 like of me bickering at my technology. Well, 00:11:19.830 --> 00:11:30.320 you know, I like a good bicker. You need some, 00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:32.059 like, elevator music playing in the background. 00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.080 Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, 00:11:34.220 --> 00:11:39.779 boom. What's that one that they're always joking 00:11:39.779 --> 00:11:42.940 about, the girl from Ipanema? Boom, boom, boom, 00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:49.720 boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. So this is the 00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:52.000 one that Sortamid posted, and I think it was 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:55.080 June 2019. So this is after the, what was it, 00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:58.250 five girls, and this is the sixth one? So this 00:11:58.250 --> 00:12:01.230 is the transformation meme. I was seeing the 00:12:01.230 --> 00:12:03.049 two ends of the spectrum look like they would 00:12:03.049 --> 00:12:04.769 never hang out with each other even, let alone 00:12:04.769 --> 00:12:08.590 be the same person. But Sortamid posted this 00:12:08.590 --> 00:12:17.950 in June 2019. I like it. Yeah, I love it. Yeah, 00:12:18.889 --> 00:12:21.289 this makes me so happy. That image makes me so 00:12:21.289 --> 00:12:25.179 happy. Yeah, so it was the first girl, like the 00:12:25.179 --> 00:12:27.240 beginning picture and the ending picture, and 00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:28.860 it said Happy Pride Month at the top, and they 00:12:28.860 --> 00:12:31.539 were running along holding hands. Yeah, and smiling. 00:12:31.580 --> 00:12:32.980 They look like they're having the time of their 00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:35.759 life. It's just, it's so sweet, and it's like, 00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:37.840 it's for the listeners, yeah. So like Bobby just 00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:39.399 explained it, yeah, the girls from each end of 00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:40.820 the transformation are holding hands, running 00:12:40.820 --> 00:12:42.279 together, smiling, and they're holding little 00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:44.179 rainbow flags, and they're having the time of 00:12:44.179 --> 00:12:47.679 their lives. It just brings me so much joy. Sortimid's 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:50.960 art generally is meant to be erotic. It's not 00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:53.730 usually... To make a statement like that. But 00:12:53.730 --> 00:12:57.669 out of context, his art isn't always well understood 00:12:57.669 --> 00:13:00.009 for what it is. It's not always understood as 00:13:00.009 --> 00:13:05.669 being pornography. Right. So the image or meme 00:13:05.669 --> 00:13:10.389 made its out of context rounds back in mid 2010s, 00:13:10.389 --> 00:13:13.289 like 2017. And people thought the sequence was 00:13:13.289 --> 00:13:15.789 showing a person possibly from South America. 00:13:16.350 --> 00:13:19.629 getting educated and turning less outwardly feminine 00:13:19.629 --> 00:13:23.789 and even maybe becoming European. Okay. I kind 00:13:23.789 --> 00:13:26.970 of see that. Yeah. So like at first, like, so 00:13:26.970 --> 00:13:29.830 like some of the examples of reactions to this. 00:13:29.870 --> 00:13:31.950 So one Twitter user said in Spanish and I'll 00:13:31.950 --> 00:13:39.909 translate, but they said, my pronunciation is 00:13:39.909 --> 00:13:43.980 awful, but basically what that means is like 00:13:43.980 --> 00:13:46.220 uh to believe in this shit and to support it 00:13:46.220 --> 00:13:49.899 is it's just beyond you know it's just like it's 00:13:49.899 --> 00:13:53.679 ridiculous it's it's um it's like a like saying 00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:55.139 like that's a whole other thing you know like 00:13:55.139 --> 00:13:57.940 it's out of hand kind of thing okay it's it i 00:13:57.940 --> 00:14:02.620 think it um cesare is like used to mean like 00:14:02.990 --> 00:14:04.950 beyond limits or like, you know, overflowing 00:14:04.950 --> 00:14:06.970 that kind of, that kind of feeling. But like 00:14:06.970 --> 00:14:09.590 in this case, it's done as like an insult for 00:14:09.590 --> 00:14:11.750 anybody who can, who can believe in this shit, 00:14:11.769 --> 00:14:14.090 you know, assuming that that transformation is 00:14:14.090 --> 00:14:18.730 making some sort of offensive statement. In other 00:14:18.730 --> 00:14:21.529 words, the person didn't enjoy the picture. The, 00:14:21.629 --> 00:14:24.929 the image was seen outside of its erotica context 00:14:24.929 --> 00:14:28.389 and people misattributed a statement to the art. 00:14:28.889 --> 00:14:31.679 And At first, I had this knee -jerk reaction 00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:33.720 of like, oh, for fuck's sake, people get offended 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.519 so easily. They can't wait to jump on a bandwagon 00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:40.259 and insult an image or whatever. But as I read 00:14:40.259 --> 00:14:42.000 some of the interpretations of the image and 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:45.100 saw that especially South and Central America 00:14:45.100 --> 00:14:47.659 netizens were offended by the image, I started 00:14:47.659 --> 00:14:50.620 to get it. In that context, it does appear to 00:14:50.620 --> 00:14:53.720 suggest that a person cannot be busty and smart. 00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:57.879 It also appears to transform the woman into a 00:14:57.879 --> 00:15:01.879 European or even American culturally. Knowing 00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:06.220 the skin tone changes because of a tan reversing, 00:15:06.220 --> 00:15:12.179 it kind of blinded me to the appearance of her 00:15:12.179 --> 00:15:14.720 potentially changing race. Yeah, I didn't pick 00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:16.200 up on that either. I thought it was just a tan 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.279 thing. Yeah, yeah. I see it now that you mentioned 00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:24.490 that. It makes sense. Right, yeah. We see the 00:15:24.490 --> 00:15:26.289 image through, like, an American cultural lens. 00:15:26.570 --> 00:15:29.929 We understand that the stereotypical bimbo type, 00:15:30.029 --> 00:15:33.090 it usually is spray tanned or, you know, in the 00:15:33.090 --> 00:15:38.110 tanning salon, you know. So, like, the entire 00:15:38.110 --> 00:15:42.470 thing is not as obvious outside of the context 00:15:42.470 --> 00:15:46.549 of erotica, and it's not obvious outside of an 00:15:46.549 --> 00:15:52.840 American interpretation of the image. While I 00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:54.899 was still recovering from my initial reaction 00:15:54.899 --> 00:15:58.580 of the frustrated people, I was frustrated with 00:15:58.580 --> 00:16:02.700 them being offended. I saw a statement from Sordomid 00:16:02.700 --> 00:16:04.980 that was so mature. Sordomid, the artist who 00:16:04.980 --> 00:16:08.159 made the image, saw a statement from them that 00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:09.799 was so mature and thoughtful that it made me 00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:11.480 feel kind of embarrassed by my initial reaction. 00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:15.860 They said, quote, Perhaps it was naive of me 00:16:15.860 --> 00:16:18.159 to assume that it was just another transformation. 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.039 People don't see it as porn, so they assume it 00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:23.340 must be a statement. Their criticism is valid. 00:16:23.539 --> 00:16:25.700 I apologize for advancing those stereotypes. 00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:28.259 I strive to create erotica that is both sexy 00:16:28.259 --> 00:16:31.000 and feminist. It seems in this case I have failed 00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:34.399 spectacularly, and for that I apologize. If there's 00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:36.059 anything I can do to make up for it, please let 00:16:36.059 --> 00:16:40.059 me know. I was like, okay, well now I feel like 00:16:40.059 --> 00:16:43.409 an immature... Or, like, at first getting mad 00:16:43.409 --> 00:16:45.070 at people being offended. Because I'm like, yeah, 00:16:45.070 --> 00:16:50.809 no, that's very thoughtful and mature. So, like, 00:16:50.809 --> 00:16:54.909 because Sermid seems like a very kind, thoughtful, 00:16:55.129 --> 00:16:57.909 intelligent, mature person, I actually reached 00:16:57.909 --> 00:17:00.350 out to them to let them know that we were doing 00:17:00.350 --> 00:17:03.110 this episode. And they had some interesting things 00:17:03.110 --> 00:17:08.359 to say. So I... First, they said that they had 00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:09.940 actually seen, you know, I explained what we 00:17:09.940 --> 00:17:13.700 do, you know, what we do with our episodes. Did 00:17:13.700 --> 00:17:17.440 they get a new listener? Probably, yeah. But 00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:19.920 maybe, well, they'll probably listen to this 00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:22.079 episode. Yeah, probably. At least. If they enjoy 00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:24.200 it, then, you know, I got to quit fucking around 00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:25.660 with all the computers and stuff and edit all 00:17:25.660 --> 00:17:28.380 that out. But if they enjoy it, they might be 00:17:28.380 --> 00:17:31.720 a listener. They said that they had actually 00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:33.759 seen this image used in this way before, but 00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:37.000 regarding the Quran rather than the Bible, which 00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:39.920 makes sense because Islam also teaches modesty 00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:42.220 in a lot of the same ways as a Christian person 00:17:42.220 --> 00:17:45.779 may be using this image to represent. Unfortunately, 00:17:45.980 --> 00:17:49.140 in both religions, practicers of them forget 00:17:49.140 --> 00:17:51.660 that this lesson in modesty does not just apply 00:17:51.660 --> 00:17:54.420 to women. But then again, how many other parts 00:17:54.420 --> 00:17:56.559 of society hold women to a higher standard for 00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:00.059 no reason? So another thing that Sordomid said 00:18:00.059 --> 00:18:03.019 that captured my attention, I mean, that's putting 00:18:03.019 --> 00:18:06.740 it lightly. It got me a little fixated. Was that 00:18:06.740 --> 00:18:09.380 while they don't have any specific evidence for 00:18:09.380 --> 00:18:12.539 this, they believe that bimbofication hitting 00:18:12.539 --> 00:18:15.480 mainstream conversations has a lot to do with 00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:20.180 people picking up on fication or iffication as 00:18:20.180 --> 00:18:27.619 the preferred suffix when verbing nouns. And 00:18:27.619 --> 00:18:29.500 the example that Sortimid gave or one of the 00:18:29.500 --> 00:18:31.240 examples that Sortimid gave was in shitification, 00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:34.900 which refers to the drop in quality and media 00:18:34.900 --> 00:18:37.140 and products, especially through commercialization 00:18:37.140 --> 00:18:41.319 or selling out. You can look at the work of a 00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:43.180 content creator before and after they started 00:18:43.180 --> 00:18:45.740 working under a media company or an overbearing 00:18:45.740 --> 00:18:48.119 sponsor. And the creative process begins to lack 00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:50.559 passion and gets in shitified. And that's in 00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:54.960 shitification. Looking into this, the origin 00:18:54.960 --> 00:19:02.269 of the. suffixing words in this way. Sortman 00:19:02.269 --> 00:19:05.049 may be right. A lot of the writings from English 00:19:05.049 --> 00:19:08.990 language professors and researchers include bimbofication 00:19:08.990 --> 00:19:11.410 when they talk about the rise of that suffix, 00:19:11.410 --> 00:19:15.230 and bimbofication predates nearly all of the 00:19:15.230 --> 00:19:21.990 common suffocated nouns that are suffixated in 00:19:21.990 --> 00:19:26.319 this way. Does that make sense that I say that 00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:29.980 clearly? Yeah. So, like, of nouns that are given 00:19:29.980 --> 00:19:33.619 a suffix in this way, bimbofication predates 00:19:33.619 --> 00:19:35.460 all of them. Yeah. Or, you know, most of them, 00:19:35.480 --> 00:19:39.299 I should say. There probably is iffication, certain 00:19:39.299 --> 00:19:41.680 types of, sometimes they're referred to as zombie 00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:47.160 nouns. Not exactly 100 % on that one. I should 00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:49.960 have looked more into that. But previously, the 00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:53.019 preferred suffixes tended to be isation, like. 00:19:53.500 --> 00:19:57.440 You know, now it's more common to hear things 00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:00.400 like TikTokification rather than TikTokization. 00:20:00.859 --> 00:20:06.059 Okay. So I think that the impactful imagery of 00:20:06.059 --> 00:20:09.559 being bimbofied gave iffication a strong transformative 00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:13.059 feel. And it seems that bimbofication specifically 00:20:13.059 --> 00:20:16.660 has kept the suffix alive through different groups 00:20:16.660 --> 00:20:20.000 co -opting the word for their own purposes. Not 00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:22.779 always in good ways. For example, the Proud Boys. 00:20:23.390 --> 00:20:27.089 Garbage group, by the way, uses bimbo as an insult 00:20:27.089 --> 00:20:30.750 and adopted the phrase bimbofication to demean 00:20:30.750 --> 00:20:33.869 the cultural shifts regarding women in society. 00:20:35.269 --> 00:20:38.849 In their use of the term, some women today, although 00:20:38.849 --> 00:20:41.750 they would put it more generalized as just women 00:20:41.750 --> 00:20:45.470 today, have become bimbofied, the way they define 00:20:45.470 --> 00:20:49.460 it. Not looking to start a family. They just 00:20:49.460 --> 00:20:51.680 care about money and their appearance and getting 00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:54.359 laid by specifically rich guys because that's 00:20:54.359 --> 00:20:56.799 just how fickle and superficial these bimbo -fied 00:20:56.799 --> 00:20:59.539 women are. It's just another way that boys groups 00:20:59.539 --> 00:21:02.599 like the Proud Boys try to blame women for men's 00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:06.480 inability to court them. In reality, there is 00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:09.720 and has always been a diversity of women in terms 00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:13.640 of thoughts, values, interests, and so on. It's 00:21:13.640 --> 00:21:16.940 just easier for an incel. to blame some vague 00:21:16.940 --> 00:21:19.500 notion of society teaching women some kind of 00:21:19.500 --> 00:21:22.660 wrong lesson, as they put it, than it is to be 00:21:22.660 --> 00:21:26.000 introspective and understand that it takes time 00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:31.319 and maybe even self -reflection to connect with 00:21:31.319 --> 00:21:37.799 people. Sortimid uses bimbofication in a completely 00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:40.559 different way, though, to show sort of a strength 00:21:40.559 --> 00:21:44.970 in femininity. It seems to... His art seems to 00:21:44.970 --> 00:21:48.329 make an attempt to honor feminism in this way, 00:21:48.410 --> 00:21:51.269 which is in stark contrast to the way a group 00:21:51.269 --> 00:21:55.369 like the Proud Boys would use the word. So the 00:21:55.369 --> 00:22:00.710 controversy that surrounded this art came from 00:22:00.710 --> 00:22:03.329 an impression that the form on the right of the 00:22:03.329 --> 00:22:05.710 girl transforming. Right. So for this image here. 00:22:06.329 --> 00:22:08.890 So that image that went viral, it went viral, 00:22:09.009 --> 00:22:12.029 I think, in 2017, roughly maybe 2016, around 00:22:12.029 --> 00:22:15.880 that time. And, you know, people were offended 00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:20.019 by it. And it came from the idea that the girl 00:22:20.019 --> 00:22:21.960 on the left of the image or the girl on the right 00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:24.400 of the image is somehow an improvement on the 00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:29.220 girl on the left in the image. So, well, that 00:22:29.220 --> 00:22:31.680 was not sort of its intent. They did tell me 00:22:31.680 --> 00:22:34.299 that they completely understand why people got 00:22:34.299 --> 00:22:36.440 that impression. And they took they take full 00:22:36.440 --> 00:22:38.980 ownership of the unintended message being received. 00:22:39.720 --> 00:22:42.720 After all, the suggestion seems to be that the 00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:46.519 bimbo form. does not read, but looking through 00:22:46.519 --> 00:22:48.740 Sordomid's art, the transformation process can 00:22:48.740 --> 00:22:51.680 happen in a lot of creative ways, not always 00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:54.839 tied to some kind of value scale or even can 00:22:54.839 --> 00:22:59.019 be interpreted as some type of value scale. And 00:22:59.019 --> 00:23:01.240 anybody can be bimbofied, men, women, anyone 00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:04.059 else can become bimbofied in this art and in 00:23:04.059 --> 00:23:09.180 this way. The intention with this artist's bimbofication 00:23:09.180 --> 00:23:12.619 drawings is erotica. It is to entertain a fetish. 00:23:12.619 --> 00:23:16.240 It's not to make a statement. And this brings 00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:20.500 me to the fetish itself. Now, I did not intend 00:23:20.500 --> 00:23:23.220 on doing another fetish episode. I literally 00:23:23.220 --> 00:23:25.279 just ran into a Bible meme and it brought me 00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:27.960 to this. Listeners, this is not becoming the 00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:31.460 pornography podcast. I promise that is not happening 00:23:31.460 --> 00:23:36.480 intentionally. But since the fetish is where 00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:38.700 the rabbit hole is led so far, we have to touch 00:23:38.700 --> 00:23:42.269 on the subject. Lucky for us, this has had some 00:23:42.269 --> 00:23:45.390 relevance in the news recently. Uh -oh. You have 00:23:45.390 --> 00:23:48.569 any idea? No, I don't think so. I don't follow 00:23:48.569 --> 00:23:52.109 the news anymore. It's too scary. Well, in this 00:23:52.109 --> 00:23:53.769 case, I don't really consider it to be news. 00:23:53.869 --> 00:23:56.670 I consider it to be tabloid crap. Oh, I definitely 00:23:56.670 --> 00:23:59.069 don't follow that. Yeah, no, I don't either typically. 00:23:59.150 --> 00:24:02.190 But in this case, it's kind of funny. It's kind 00:24:02.190 --> 00:24:09.190 of funny what happened. Okay. So, oops. I'm hunched 00:24:09.190 --> 00:24:12.750 over trying to do this. The world's too small. 00:24:12.809 --> 00:24:19.789 Everything's too short. Disagree. I'm going to 00:24:19.789 --> 00:24:24.309 cut to a wide shot when you say that. Ultimately, 00:24:24.309 --> 00:24:31.190 I don't care about people's fetishes. I think 00:24:31.190 --> 00:24:35.609 it's important to avoid shaming. I think it's 00:24:35.609 --> 00:24:37.650 important to avoid shaming consenting adults 00:24:37.650 --> 00:24:40.650 for what they do that isn't harming anyone. Don't 00:24:40.650 --> 00:24:42.910 pee on my stuff. Yeah, don't pee on our stuff. 00:24:43.069 --> 00:24:44.650 Just don't do it. And definitely don't pee on 00:24:44.650 --> 00:24:48.369 food. Unless it's your own and you're at home 00:24:48.369 --> 00:24:50.250 and you like that kind of stuff. If you guys 00:24:50.250 --> 00:24:51.950 are confused, you need to go back and listen 00:24:51.950 --> 00:24:56.289 to the episode Air PNB. That's the name of that 00:24:56.289 --> 00:24:58.990 episode. It's a good episode. Good title. It 00:24:58.990 --> 00:25:05.390 was a wet and wild good time. But when it comes 00:25:05.390 --> 00:25:07.930 to fetishes and stuff, though, it takes all kinds 00:25:07.930 --> 00:25:10.450 to make the world as diverse as it is. And I 00:25:10.450 --> 00:25:13.930 absolutely love that. People are into all sorts 00:25:13.930 --> 00:25:16.529 of things. And some people are into bimbofication. 00:25:16.690 --> 00:25:20.430 Some people are really into bimbofication. As 00:25:20.430 --> 00:25:25.130 in spending $25 ,000 to chat with bimbofication 00:25:25.130 --> 00:25:29.509 models level of into bimbofication. Wow. $25 00:25:29.509 --> 00:25:34.089 ,000, Bobby. For like... One conversation? No, 00:25:34.190 --> 00:25:39.549 not one. It racked up to $25 ,000, but that's... 00:25:39.549 --> 00:25:42.509 That's insane. That's more than I paid for my 00:25:42.509 --> 00:25:47.410 car. Yeah. That's not more than I paid for my 00:25:47.410 --> 00:25:52.049 car. But, I mean, you could easily buy a car 00:25:52.049 --> 00:25:55.920 for that. Yeah. I don't know. That's nuts. But 00:25:55.920 --> 00:25:59.660 so we generally don't hear a lot about the first 00:25:59.660 --> 00:26:02.519 gentleman of any state. I mean, who remembers 00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:04.559 the name of Sarah Palin's husband, for example? 00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:08.819 Nobody. Yeah, no. To be completely honest, I 00:26:08.819 --> 00:26:10.599 couldn't remember Sarah Palin's name when I wanted 00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:13.339 to use her as an example. And I looked up Alaskan 00:26:13.339 --> 00:26:16.799 governor lady. I just could not recall her name. 00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:20.519 But as a country, we sure as hell do not spend 00:26:20.519 --> 00:26:23.440 a lot of time on the spouse of the Secretary 00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:27.920 of Homeland Security either. As of right now, 00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:32.019 Brian Noem is almost a household name, and it's 00:26:32.019 --> 00:26:34.359 almost entirely because of their bimbofication 00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:37.599 fetish becoming public. And I will be using they 00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:39.880 -them pronouns to refer to Brian because I'm 00:26:39.880 --> 00:26:43.559 not completely sure as to how Brian identifies. 00:26:44.349 --> 00:26:46.549 And I want to stick with being gender neutral 00:26:46.549 --> 00:26:50.829 just to be safe or just to be respectful or whatever, 00:26:51.049 --> 00:26:55.930 if they even deserve respect. But I think that 00:26:55.930 --> 00:26:59.589 it's always nice to use people's correct pronouns. 00:26:59.650 --> 00:27:01.410 And I don't know what Brian's are, so I'm going 00:27:01.410 --> 00:27:05.670 to say they, them. So Brian has expressed fantasizing 00:27:05.670 --> 00:27:10.529 about being a bimbo named Crystal. and has fantasized 00:27:10.529 --> 00:27:13.029 about transitioning, but it is imperative to 00:27:13.029 --> 00:27:15.089 point out that there's a major difference between 00:27:15.089 --> 00:27:18.170 what Brian has expressed and being transgender 00:27:18.170 --> 00:27:22.130 in general. While Brian may be transgender, I 00:27:22.130 --> 00:27:26.670 don't know. That is not exactly what is being 00:27:26.670 --> 00:27:29.470 expressed here. For Brian, the drive, as presented 00:27:29.470 --> 00:27:34.269 so far, to be a woman comes from a place of arousal 00:27:34.269 --> 00:27:37.809 and sexual fantasy. Brian has not expressed... 00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.440 Being a woman, but rather fantasizing being a 00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:45.259 woman for erotic reasons. We know this because 00:27:45.259 --> 00:27:49.700 an investigative report from the Daily Beast, 00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:55.400 not my favorite publication, they found some 00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:59.000 images, text messages, and online activity of 00:27:59.000 --> 00:28:02.599 Brian Noem surrounding his interest in bimbofication 00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:05.519 models and even emulating bimbofying himself. 00:28:06.380 --> 00:28:09.380 Images have surfaced of Brian doing things like 00:28:09.380 --> 00:28:12.039 using balloons to give himself the appearance 00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:16.839 of having large breasts. Huge, ridiculous breasts, 00:28:17.019 --> 00:28:20.500 as Brian has called them, are a staple of the 00:28:20.500 --> 00:28:23.420 bimbofication fantasy. When it comes to these 00:28:23.420 --> 00:28:26.700 bimbofication models, they often have greatly 00:28:26.700 --> 00:28:29.440 exaggerated features like a real -life version 00:28:29.440 --> 00:28:32.259 of a Rule 34 drawing or even sort of like dolls 00:28:32.259 --> 00:28:35.880 sometimes. with plastic sheen to their skin and 00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:40.019 everything. And Brian seems to be both into these 00:28:40.019 --> 00:28:45.160 models and into the idea of being bimbified himself. 00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:50.259 And this isn't a phase of Brian's, or even a 00:28:50.259 --> 00:28:53.619 recent discovery of theirs, but a long, ongoing 00:28:53.619 --> 00:28:57.890 fetish. Brian has used the alias Crystal for 00:28:57.890 --> 00:29:01.589 years, such as when chatting with models like 00:29:01.589 --> 00:29:06.630 the dominatrix known as Shy Sotomayor, who said 00:29:06.630 --> 00:29:09.990 that Brian insisted on being called Crystal when 00:29:09.990 --> 00:29:13.809 they talked. In fact, Shy said that she didn't 00:29:13.809 --> 00:29:16.369 even know Brian's identity until looking at a 00:29:16.369 --> 00:29:20.089 PayPal transaction that Brian made to her in 00:29:20.089 --> 00:29:23.930 which Brian failed to use the alias. Oops. Yeah. 00:29:24.569 --> 00:29:28.470 Brian also had an email address, crystalballs666. 00:29:31.069 --> 00:29:37.440 That was pretty good. I like it, yeah. Brian 00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:39.680 hadn't even been using their personal phone, 00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:42.460 but a work phone through the insurance agency 00:29:42.460 --> 00:29:46.539 that they owned. But so something. OK, here's 00:29:46.539 --> 00:29:48.759 the thing about the insurance agency that Brian 00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:51.519 owns. So this is something I don't understand 00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:54.720 entirely. Like so Brian worked for a bank and 00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:57.940 eventually bought that bank's insurance branch 00:29:57.940 --> 00:30:01.400 and then ran it as an insurance company. Like 00:30:01.400 --> 00:30:03.359 how do people just be buying the place they work 00:30:03.359 --> 00:30:06.609 at? Like just fucking money. Christ. I don't 00:30:06.609 --> 00:30:09.829 know. Anyway, the cat's out of the bag and it's 00:30:09.829 --> 00:30:13.490 got big floppy gazongas. The country knows about 00:30:13.490 --> 00:30:16.230 Brian's fantasy and no one would care except 00:30:16.230 --> 00:30:20.930 Brian is married until very recently. Well, I 00:30:20.930 --> 00:30:23.950 think as of recording, they're still technically 00:30:23.950 --> 00:30:27.950 married. But Brian is married to Christine Noem, 00:30:28.069 --> 00:30:32.049 the former secretary of Homeland Security. They 00:30:32.049 --> 00:30:34.950 had been putting on this appearance of a conservative 00:30:34.950 --> 00:30:38.589 Christian family, which keeping up an appearance 00:30:38.589 --> 00:30:40.589 like that sounds like a fucking nightmare. Oh, 00:30:40.589 --> 00:30:44.309 yeah. I would hate that. I would rather never 00:30:44.309 --> 00:30:46.589 step foot into public life than to have to put 00:30:46.589 --> 00:30:49.609 on a facade like that. That is insane. Christie 00:30:49.609 --> 00:30:53.150 is a real piece of shit. I mean, okay, hold on. 00:30:53.150 --> 00:30:55.750 Let me be diplomatic here. Christie Noem was 00:30:55.750 --> 00:30:58.190 the governor of South Dakota and almost Donald 00:30:58.190 --> 00:31:00.809 Trump's vice president pick. That was until people 00:31:00.809 --> 00:31:03.369 started talking about Kristi Noem's 2024 book, 00:31:03.490 --> 00:31:06.470 cumbersomely titled, No Going Back, The Truth 00:31:06.470 --> 00:31:09.369 on What's Wrong with Politics and How We Move 00:31:09.369 --> 00:31:13.609 America Forward. Something about the truth on 00:31:13.609 --> 00:31:16.009 what's wrong with politics. There's something 00:31:16.009 --> 00:31:19.210 dumb about that phrase. Does that sound dumb? 00:31:19.329 --> 00:31:23.809 The truth on what's wrong with politics. That 00:31:23.809 --> 00:31:25.470 sounds like a baby said it. It sounds like a 00:31:25.470 --> 00:31:27.779 way a kid would say it. I'm going to write a 00:31:27.779 --> 00:31:30.119 book when I'm president. I'm going to write a 00:31:30.119 --> 00:31:32.279 book. It's going to be called The Truth on What's 00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:35.559 Wrong with Politics. It's stupid. It's stupid. 00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:38.099 I don't know. It sounds dumb. Anyway, in this 00:31:38.099 --> 00:31:41.140 book, she writes braggingly about killing a young 00:31:41.140 --> 00:31:47.660 dog named Cricket. Sorry, that was just a stare 00:31:47.660 --> 00:31:50.880 there. Yeah, yeah, so... So, like, intentionally, 00:31:51.099 --> 00:31:53.160 or, like, she ran it over? Oh, no, no, she shot 00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:54.660 it. She murdered the dog. She murdered the dog. 00:31:55.460 --> 00:31:57.799 Oh, that's a great person. Yeah, so Donald Trump 00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:00.140 decided that may make her a bad choice to have 00:32:00.140 --> 00:32:06.240 on his presidential ticket. According to... When 00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:10.420 you get, like, PR shedded by Donald Trump, that's 00:32:10.420 --> 00:32:12.720 a bad fucking sign. That's the only good decision 00:32:12.720 --> 00:32:16.750 that man's ever made. So according to the book 00:32:16.750 --> 00:32:19.230 Revenge, the inside story of Trump's return to 00:32:19.230 --> 00:32:22.690 power, Trump said to his son, Donald Jr., quote, 00:32:22.890 --> 00:32:25.809 that's no good. Even you wouldn't kill a dog 00:32:25.809 --> 00:32:31.170 and you kill everything. Wow. I think everything 00:32:31.170 --> 00:32:33.069 I learn about the Trump family makes them sound 00:32:33.069 --> 00:32:36.609 like a sad circus of serial killers. Yeah. But 00:32:36.609 --> 00:32:39.490 the point is, Kristi Noem fucking killed a dog 00:32:39.490 --> 00:32:41.990 and thought that was cool to write about. Therefore, 00:32:42.230 --> 00:32:44.529 she's a real piece of shit. There, I'm being 00:32:44.529 --> 00:32:49.349 diplomatic. But Kristi sucks in a lot of ways, 00:32:49.470 --> 00:32:52.069 and her awful nature has cost us, the American 00:32:52.069 --> 00:32:55.910 taxpayers, a lot of money. She spent buku bucks 00:32:55.910 --> 00:33:00.160 on some shitty anti -immigration ads. They look 00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:02.700 like mushed together B -roll and AI slop with 00:33:02.700 --> 00:33:04.839 a handful of videos of Christy doing cosplay 00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:08.900 and sitting on a horse briefly. Wow. She spent 00:33:08.900 --> 00:33:16.380 $220 million on this ad campaign. Adjusted for 00:33:16.380 --> 00:33:20.400 inflation, Thor Ragnarok had a budget of $245 00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:24.599 million. I really don't think these ads add up 00:33:24.599 --> 00:33:28.839 to 90 % of a Thor Ragnarok. No. The Angry Video 00:33:28.839 --> 00:33:31.859 Game Nerd movie is a better production, and that 00:33:31.859 --> 00:33:37.480 cost exactly $325 ,972, which means you can make 00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:41.319 675 AVGN movies for the budget that Kristi Noem 00:33:41.319 --> 00:33:44.380 used to make a handful of mostly AI slop ads. 00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:50.839 Wow. Even adjusting for inflation, $250 million 00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:54.279 is enough to make the last season of Game of 00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:58.450 Thrones twice. That was a terrible investment 00:33:58.450 --> 00:34:02.769 she made. But she's never been any good with 00:34:02.769 --> 00:34:06.029 other people's money. With tax dollars, she bought 00:34:06.029 --> 00:34:09.869 two private luxury jets and financed a third 00:34:09.869 --> 00:34:13.869 one. Wow. Yeah. She needs three because she's 00:34:13.869 --> 00:34:16.489 always misplacing them. I hate when I lose my 00:34:16.489 --> 00:34:19.010 jet. Oh, God, it's the worst. Bobby, you laugh, 00:34:19.150 --> 00:34:22.070 but where are you going to find a Boeing 797 00:34:22.070 --> 00:34:25.030 MAX luxury jet when you really need one? Better 00:34:25.030 --> 00:34:28.730 have two backups. After all, what's that? A measly 00:34:28.730 --> 00:34:31.969 $110 million before adding the custom outfitting? 00:34:32.210 --> 00:34:34.389 Hell, that's barely half the price of an anti 00:34:34.389 --> 00:34:39.869 -immigration ad campaign. Sure, not all the ad 00:34:39.869 --> 00:34:43.150 campaign was B -roll and AI slop. Some of this 00:34:43.150 --> 00:34:46.909 ICE propaganda did feature Christy cosplaying, 00:34:47.110 --> 00:34:51.210 which is how she earned the nickname Ice Barbie. 00:34:52.429 --> 00:34:55.449 Well, that and something interesting that sort 00:34:55.449 --> 00:34:58.360 of made... directed me toward, which they found 00:34:58.360 --> 00:35:02.360 kind of interesting and I do too. But I will, 00:35:02.460 --> 00:35:05.139 I'm going to get back to that. The thing that 00:35:05.139 --> 00:35:09.119 sort of pointed out. Okay. But before I move 00:35:09.119 --> 00:35:10.920 on to this next part, I do want to preface this 00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:15.159 with fuck Kristi Noem. Anyone who knows me or 00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:17.019 anybody who follows me on social media, which 00:35:17.019 --> 00:35:19.579 is not a lot of people because I don't use it. 00:35:19.599 --> 00:35:21.960 I don't use social media and I don't usually 00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:24.239 plug it. Like I just recently started putting 00:35:24.239 --> 00:35:28.949 it in our descriptions. But they'll know a couple 00:35:28.949 --> 00:35:31.030 of things about me if they follow my social media. 00:35:31.269 --> 00:35:34.429 One, I'm never on my accounts. Two, when I am, 00:35:34.550 --> 00:35:37.250 I post pictures of Kristi Noem being sad with 00:35:37.250 --> 00:35:39.750 no context because I like it when evil frowns. 00:35:39.949 --> 00:35:44.710 She's not a good person. She is corrupt, self 00:35:44.710 --> 00:35:47.849 -centered, callous. Wait, this is my list of 00:35:47.849 --> 00:35:50.590 Donald Trump qualities. Hold on. Okay, here's 00:35:50.590 --> 00:35:53.329 my Kristi Noem one. Not a good person, corrupt, 00:35:53.510 --> 00:35:56.590 self -centered, callous. I could have saved a 00:35:56.590 --> 00:35:58.130 lot of times just put both their names on one 00:35:58.130 --> 00:36:01.630 card. Yep. Anyway, she has no interest in the 00:36:01.630 --> 00:36:03.429 well -being of anyone but herself. I'm still 00:36:03.429 --> 00:36:05.550 reading the Donald Trump one. Okay, hold on. 00:36:05.610 --> 00:36:08.190 I'm going to just get rid of that. Okay, here 00:36:08.190 --> 00:36:11.409 we go. Back to the Kristi Noem one. She has no 00:36:11.409 --> 00:36:13.309 interest in the well -being of anyone else but 00:36:13.309 --> 00:36:16.170 herself. And I would eat my hat if Brian Noem 00:36:16.170 --> 00:36:19.230 turns out to be a decent person. Because... I 00:36:19.230 --> 00:36:21.889 don't think anyone, other than at least a person 00:36:21.889 --> 00:36:24.369 indifferent to humanity, could sit by and support 00:36:24.369 --> 00:36:28.909 or even stay married to a woman who was pushing 00:36:28.909 --> 00:36:32.510 to ban gender -affirming care for minors, shooting 00:36:32.510 --> 00:36:35.429 a 14 -month -old dog, allowing businesses to 00:36:35.429 --> 00:36:39.650 deny service to LGBTQ people, legislating trans 00:36:39.650 --> 00:36:42.449 athletes out of sports, accusing Native American 00:36:42.449 --> 00:36:45.050 tribal leaders of being tied to Mexican drug 00:36:45.050 --> 00:36:48.449 cartels, shooting a 14 -month -old dog. hosting 00:36:48.449 --> 00:36:50.670 the Sturgis motorcycle rally in her state during 00:36:50.670 --> 00:36:53.869 the peak of COVID infections, and shooting a 00:36:53.869 --> 00:36:56.929 14 -month -old dog. But I guess it's possible 00:36:56.929 --> 00:36:59.750 that Brian has no idea what Kristi Noem does 00:36:59.750 --> 00:37:04.510 as a politician. In a political ad for Kristi 00:37:04.510 --> 00:37:07.269 Noem's run for governor of South Dakota, he said, 00:37:07.630 --> 00:37:10.550 The thing about Kristi I admire most is her work 00:37:10.550 --> 00:37:14.300 ethic. Doesn't matter what she's doing. If she's 00:37:14.300 --> 00:37:17.440 fixing a fence or she's saddling a horse or if 00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:20.579 she's working in Congress, no one will outwork 00:37:20.579 --> 00:37:24.900 her. She will work people around under the table, 00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:27.659 and she doesn't quit until it's done. And that's 00:37:27.659 --> 00:37:31.460 the way she's always been. That's how she was 00:37:31.460 --> 00:37:34.480 raised, and that's how she continues to be. And 00:37:34.480 --> 00:37:37.599 she works with people, and the hard work she 00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:40.559 does, I think, is great. Uh, it's a great combination. 00:37:40.619 --> 00:37:43.920 I think it'd be great asset for, to have as a 00:37:43.920 --> 00:37:48.840 governor of South Dakota. Yeah. Um, and then 00:37:48.840 --> 00:37:51.280 on the podcast moms for America, Brian said, 00:37:51.480 --> 00:37:55.320 uh, basically that, that, um, she's a hard worker 00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:58.599 and just talked really a lot about how hard of 00:37:58.599 --> 00:38:00.699 a worker she is and how she'll work long hours 00:38:00.699 --> 00:38:03.099 and she'll work really hard. So he has no idea 00:38:03.099 --> 00:38:05.940 what she does. Yeah. It's almost like. Exactly. 00:38:06.679 --> 00:38:09.019 You just know she's gone a lot. Yeah. Yes. And 00:38:09.019 --> 00:38:11.179 it's almost like, you know, whatever he's asked, 00:38:11.260 --> 00:38:14.519 he just defaults. She's a great worker. She works 00:38:14.519 --> 00:38:17.800 really hard. Yeah. That's something that someone 00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:22.380 says when they have no idea. But yeah. Moms for 00:38:22.380 --> 00:38:24.539 America, by the way, not a good podcast. Zero 00:38:24.539 --> 00:38:30.159 out of 10. So maybe, maybe, maybe Brian really 00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:37.829 is unaware. that Christy is constantly attacking 00:38:37.829 --> 00:38:40.750 minorities and queer people. Brian certainly 00:38:40.750 --> 00:38:44.329 seems careless enough to not know. Shai, the 00:38:44.329 --> 00:38:48.469 dominatrix, who's, by the way, whose online name 00:38:48.469 --> 00:38:52.750 is Raylan Riley. Shai Sotomayor sounds like the 00:38:52.750 --> 00:38:56.230 pseudonym. Yeah. And to be honest, I already 00:38:56.230 --> 00:38:59.409 like it as a dominatrix name. So anyway, Shai 00:38:59.409 --> 00:39:03.469 said that Brian would contact her through a business 00:39:03.469 --> 00:39:06.690 phone, and these were paid phone calls, meaning 00:39:06.690 --> 00:39:08.989 that some of the massive amount of money that 00:39:08.989 --> 00:39:12.010 he racked up on his fetish, at least $25 ,000, 00:39:12.190 --> 00:39:16.550 or roughly 0 .01 % of an anti -immigration ad 00:39:16.550 --> 00:39:20.010 campaign, was spent through his company's expenditures, 00:39:20.510 --> 00:39:25.539 which is an ethical concern. So he would also 00:39:25.539 --> 00:39:27.840 tell Shai that he didn't care if they got caught, 00:39:27.980 --> 00:39:30.679 which is good for him, I guess. But that sucks 00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:33.559 for Kristi Noem, considering that the conservative 00:39:33.559 --> 00:39:36.699 Christian image that they had to curate in order 00:39:36.699 --> 00:39:38.940 to function in right -wing politics probably 00:39:38.940 --> 00:39:40.840 took a lot of work, you know, to fake. Oh, I'm 00:39:40.840 --> 00:39:45.500 sure, yeah. Like, I just, yeah. Anyway, that's 00:39:45.500 --> 00:39:50.739 $25 ,000 still. Like, that's just... I don't 00:39:50.739 --> 00:39:53.579 know. That strikes me because he's probably writing 00:39:53.579 --> 00:39:55.679 it off in his taxes, making those phone calls 00:39:55.679 --> 00:40:02.800 and stuff. And just multiply that by 8 ,800 and 00:40:02.800 --> 00:40:06.059 you could make an anti -immigration ad campaign. 00:40:06.980 --> 00:40:11.019 Anyway, what Brian does with his private life 00:40:11.019 --> 00:40:13.719 is not really a legitimate concern to any serious 00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:17.519 person. A former CIA officer told the Daily Mail 00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:20.500 that Brian's behavior could be a liability if 00:40:20.500 --> 00:40:23.000 hostile agencies found out. But I think that 00:40:23.000 --> 00:40:25.960 says more about the absurdly delicate nature 00:40:25.960 --> 00:40:30.050 of conservatives than it does about Brian. At 00:40:30.050 --> 00:40:33.030 best, Brian's behavior could be used as blackmail 00:40:33.030 --> 00:40:35.530 against Christy because her political career 00:40:35.530 --> 00:40:38.550 relies on pretending to be so far removed from 00:40:38.550 --> 00:40:41.269 such things. But it wouldn't be an issue if conservatives 00:40:41.269 --> 00:40:44.429 didn't spend all their goddamn time demonizing 00:40:44.429 --> 00:40:48.840 queerness and trans people. Sure. The ethical 00:40:48.840 --> 00:40:51.639 concern regarding Brian's use of the company's 00:40:51.639 --> 00:40:54.619 assets could look bad, but we are so far past 00:40:54.619 --> 00:40:56.659 that kind of shame in politics at this point. 00:40:56.719 --> 00:40:59.500 We have a tremendously corrupt government and 00:40:59.500 --> 00:41:01.539 no one who can do anything about it gives a shit. 00:41:01.760 --> 00:41:04.320 Brian misusing funds to make sex calls wouldn't 00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:07.559 even make a blip on the radar. In fact, if they 00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.340 were purely heterosexual conventional phone calls, 00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:12.559 the sex part wouldn't even matter and this wouldn't 00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:15.579 have made the news. Trump bragged about being 00:41:15.579 --> 00:41:17.800 able to sexually assault women and it didn't 00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:20.300 fucking matter. It's the queer part, the gender 00:41:20.300 --> 00:41:22.239 fluidity that matters to these people because 00:41:22.239 --> 00:41:24.440 at the end of the day, these politicians and 00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:26.280 the voters who support them do not give half 00:41:26.280 --> 00:41:28.980 a shit about ethical concerns as long as their 00:41:28.980 --> 00:41:33.340 prejudices are excused and supported. Which is 00:41:33.340 --> 00:41:37.059 probably why Brian went to sex rehab to be treated 00:41:37.059 --> 00:41:40.360 for liking things, I guess, because, oh, he's 00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:42.320 not like that. So they have to pretend to be 00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:47.380 ashamed by the behavior altogether. When I was 00:41:47.380 --> 00:41:49.559 talking to Sortimid, the artist behind the drawing 00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:52.820 and the meme, they pointed out the connection 00:41:52.820 --> 00:41:56.539 between politicians addressing non -conventional 00:41:56.539 --> 00:42:00.969 sexual interests. Sorry, let me start that over. 00:42:01.070 --> 00:42:04.030 I stumbled through my words there. But when I 00:42:04.030 --> 00:42:05.750 was talking to Sortimid, the artist behind the 00:42:05.750 --> 00:42:08.869 drawing and the meme, they pointed out the connection 00:42:08.869 --> 00:42:11.409 between politicians addressing non -conventional 00:42:11.409 --> 00:42:14.929 sexual interests as deviant and politicians attempting 00:42:14.929 --> 00:42:18.809 to legislate queer people out of existence. So 00:42:18.809 --> 00:42:21.550 in regard to Kristi Noem, it is worth pointing 00:42:21.550 --> 00:42:23.909 out that this situation is just another example 00:42:23.909 --> 00:42:26.329 of how blatantly dishonest people like Kristi 00:42:26.329 --> 00:42:29.610 are. Because just as I doubt that Brian is completely 00:42:29.610 --> 00:42:33.210 unaware that Kristi supports prejudice legislation 00:42:33.210 --> 00:42:36.630 and killed a dog, I doubt Kristi was unaware 00:42:36.630 --> 00:42:40.389 of Brian's fantasies. Now, politicians are liars 00:42:40.389 --> 00:42:44.820 in general. Almost a quarter of the fact -checked 00:42:44.820 --> 00:42:47.119 claims by Barack Obama during his presidential 00:42:47.119 --> 00:42:49.780 run in time in office was determined to be at 00:42:49.780 --> 00:42:53.440 least mostly false by PolitiFact. Almost a quarter. 00:42:53.519 --> 00:42:57.000 And Obama scores on the higher end of honesty 00:42:57.000 --> 00:43:01.039 among politicians. Oh, yeah. So it essentially 00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:04.340 seems to come with the territory. But politicians 00:43:04.340 --> 00:43:06.659 on the right, regardless of your politics, are 00:43:06.659 --> 00:43:10.019 factually by far the biggest purveyors of non 00:43:10.019 --> 00:43:14.820 -truths. Bobby, I want you to guess what percentage 00:43:14.820 --> 00:43:17.980 PolitiFact has as true or mostly true for claims 00:43:17.980 --> 00:43:22.559 by Kristi Noem. True? True or mostly true. So 00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:25.260 they have a scale. They have true, mostly true, 00:43:25.739 --> 00:43:31.300 half true, mostly false, false, and pants on 00:43:31.300 --> 00:43:36.360 fire. And where was Obama? He was 20, 25%. So, 00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:40.719 so 25 % of the claims fact checked from Barack 00:43:40.719 --> 00:43:44.960 Obama, uh, were either, you know, were at least 00:43:44.960 --> 00:43:49.800 as bad as mostly false. Okay. So 25%. So how 00:43:49.800 --> 00:43:52.300 much of hers were true? Yeah. Yeah. So the top 00:43:52.300 --> 00:43:55.880 two, the top two, so true and mostly true. So 00:43:55.880 --> 00:43:57.699 they each get their percentages, you know, so, 00:43:57.860 --> 00:44:07.429 um, uh, um, So like for – yeah, so you say three 00:44:07.429 --> 00:44:10.230 for true or mostly true. That's what you said, 00:44:10.230 --> 00:44:14.670 3%. 3%. 3 % total or each 3 %? Total. Total, 00:44:14.789 --> 00:44:19.610 3 % total. Well, Bobby, you are way off because 00:44:19.610 --> 00:44:24.929 it's 0%. Wow, everything she said was a lie. 00:44:25.730 --> 00:44:28.889 Everything she said is at least half a lie. You 00:44:28.889 --> 00:44:31.730 know what? At least she's consistent. Yeah, she's 00:44:31.730 --> 00:44:33.449 going for the lowest score. You know where you 00:44:33.449 --> 00:44:36.409 stand with Christy. Maybe the game cabinet will 00:44:36.409 --> 00:44:39.190 let her put her initials in. Well, hopefully 00:44:39.190 --> 00:44:41.590 it's like her full name, like Bubble Bobble and 00:44:41.590 --> 00:44:44.130 not just initials like fucking Galaga. Oh, yeah, 00:44:44.170 --> 00:44:47.489 I get that. Oh, speaking of initials, Bobby, 00:44:47.670 --> 00:44:52.050 Brian and Christy have three kids. Okay. Cassidy 00:44:52.050 --> 00:44:57.730 with a K. Kennedy with a K. Uh -oh. And Booker. 00:44:57.789 --> 00:45:02.510 Oh, thank God. I guess once Christy had Cassidy 00:45:02.510 --> 00:45:05.110 and Kennedy, that was all the Ks Christy kept. 00:45:06.650 --> 00:45:10.150 Then she probably let Brian name Booker. It's 00:45:10.150 --> 00:45:12.110 a good thing she stuck with just two Ks. That 00:45:12.110 --> 00:45:14.250 was a close one for Christy. A little bit. For 00:45:14.250 --> 00:45:18.300 Christy. So another thing regarding Christie 00:45:18.300 --> 00:45:22.679 and the fetishes that Brian has. So another thing 00:45:22.679 --> 00:45:24.960 with with Christie and Brian's fetishes, not 00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:27.239 that they're both their fetish. Brian's fetishes 00:45:27.239 --> 00:45:30.699 and Christie. Yeah, that's a less confusing way 00:45:30.699 --> 00:45:33.500 to word it. Something about that is something 00:45:33.500 --> 00:45:35.659 the thing I mentioned before that that sort of 00:45:35.659 --> 00:45:37.559 had pointed out that they found interesting. 00:45:37.659 --> 00:45:42.059 And so do I. So sort of linked me to a post from 00:45:42.059 --> 00:45:46.380 a Twitter user, Laura Jadid, who wrote. Quote, 00:45:46.380 --> 00:45:49.099 you really have to feel bad for Brian Noem. Imagine 00:45:49.099 --> 00:45:51.559 having a bimbofication fantasy and then watching 00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:54.039 your wife become fully bimbofied while you waste 00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:57.639 away in the closet. The post includes side -by 00:45:57.639 --> 00:45:59.739 -side photos of Christy, which seems to highlight 00:45:59.739 --> 00:46:02.139 the plastic surgery she underwent over the years. 00:46:02.460 --> 00:46:05.739 So Christy undergoing a little bit of bimbofication 00:46:05.739 --> 00:46:09.139 along with being nicknamed Ice Barbie probably 00:46:09.139 --> 00:46:12.519 has nothing to do with Brian's fetishes. Probably, 00:46:12.699 --> 00:46:15.239 maybe, I don't know. But it did give me pause. 00:46:15.460 --> 00:46:19.639 Yeah. I was like, oh, that is interesting. There's 00:46:19.639 --> 00:46:24.300 a little ding there. I'm like, oh, okay, all 00:46:24.300 --> 00:46:26.280 right. I don't know what to make of it, but it's 00:46:26.280 --> 00:46:31.679 interesting. But regardless of whether Christy 00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:34.539 was aware or whatever, she obviously couldn't 00:46:34.539 --> 00:46:37.340 stay married to Brian. Generally, in conservative 00:46:37.340 --> 00:46:40.260 politics, couples find themselves forced to maintain 00:46:40.260 --> 00:46:44.750 failed marriages. While that standard started 00:46:44.750 --> 00:46:47.210 to fade with Newt Gingrich and should be entirely 00:46:47.210 --> 00:46:51.289 out the window with Trump, we do still see marriages 00:46:51.289 --> 00:46:56.429 that remain at odds with political life. For 00:46:56.429 --> 00:46:59.809 example, J .D. Vance, or Vancy Pants, or VP Pants 00:46:59.809 --> 00:47:02.710 as he likes to be called, is an atheist, but 00:47:02.710 --> 00:47:06.170 has to wear a Christian facade in order to continue 00:47:06.170 --> 00:47:10.369 his political career. As a supposed Catholic, 00:47:11.289 --> 00:47:14.369 He has to believe that his wife is going to hell 00:47:14.369 --> 00:47:18.010 if she continues to be Hindu. They have to stay 00:47:18.010 --> 00:47:20.610 married, though, because they probably love each 00:47:20.610 --> 00:47:25.030 other, maybe, and the public life is a lie. Or 00:47:25.030 --> 00:47:27.349 they don't love each other, and the public life 00:47:27.349 --> 00:47:28.929 is still a lie, and their marriage is a lie, 00:47:29.010 --> 00:47:33.590 too. But Pants can't look like he's abandoning 00:47:33.590 --> 00:47:38.039 his family, so they had another kid. And he said 00:47:38.039 --> 00:47:40.659 that he believes that he can convert her to Christianity 00:47:40.659 --> 00:47:44.559 and said that he wants her to convert. So keeping 00:47:44.559 --> 00:47:47.739 up appearances for politicians in general, but 00:47:47.739 --> 00:47:50.679 especially for conservatives, often require maintaining 00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:54.300 one's marriage in the face of everything. And 00:47:54.300 --> 00:47:56.739 also maintaining this Christian facade, just 00:47:56.739 --> 00:48:00.559 like Christie and Brian did. In Christie's case, 00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:05.409 however, she needs to get out because... Brian 00:48:05.409 --> 00:48:09.130 is not going to stop being queer. And, as I mentioned 00:48:09.130 --> 00:48:11.969 before, the prejudices far outweigh any supposed 00:48:11.969 --> 00:48:15.110 ethical reasons to maintain the marriage. Right 00:48:15.110 --> 00:48:17.469 now, queer and trans people are the biggest demons 00:48:17.469 --> 00:48:20.429 for the right. So, Kristi Noem cannot have a 00:48:20.429 --> 00:48:22.989 husband who loves her and also has queer tendencies. 00:48:23.469 --> 00:48:26.809 But J .D. Vance's wife can be Hindu with the 00:48:26.809 --> 00:48:28.909 possibility of converting as long as they're 00:48:28.909 --> 00:48:31.809 both straight. That's why Christy and Brian are 00:48:31.809 --> 00:48:34.130 getting divorced, more than likely. I guess there 00:48:34.130 --> 00:48:36.690 could be other reasons. I don't care if that 00:48:36.690 --> 00:48:41.030 goes out now. I really don't. You don't care 00:48:41.030 --> 00:48:48.610 if I use it at all. No, it's fine. But yeah, 00:48:48.710 --> 00:48:53.250 the fact that they aren't divorced yet, but they're 00:48:53.250 --> 00:48:55.449 going to get divorced, would not typically be 00:48:55.449 --> 00:49:00.099 public knowledge. The Daily Mail spoke with Christine 00:49:00.099 --> 00:49:02.380 Ohm's mother who spilled the beans or tea or 00:49:02.380 --> 00:49:04.139 vape juice or whatever the kids say these days. 00:49:05.900 --> 00:49:08.139 She said, and I want to read a good portion of 00:49:08.139 --> 00:49:10.380 this because it sounds just like that family 00:49:10.380 --> 00:49:12.860 member who tells everyone way too much. Oh, yeah. 00:49:13.159 --> 00:49:16.539 These are quotes. These are quotes directly from 00:49:16.539 --> 00:49:20.539 Christine Ohm's mother speaking to the news, 00:49:20.599 --> 00:49:23.320 okay? Speaking to a news agency in her own home. 00:49:23.400 --> 00:49:27.230 She let them in and told them all this. This 00:49:27.230 --> 00:49:29.469 was a big party where the whole family was there, 00:49:29.630 --> 00:49:32.610 Christy and Brian and all my kids and all my 00:49:32.610 --> 00:49:36.269 grandkids. Brian was holding and hugging the 00:49:36.269 --> 00:49:38.670 kids. It seemed like the old Brian. He was very 00:49:38.670 --> 00:49:40.750 nice. I hugged him, told him I loved him. He 00:49:40.750 --> 00:49:43.809 said the same. She doesn't tell me what she thinks. 00:49:43.889 --> 00:49:45.769 Finally, I was just like, what's the deal? Are 00:49:45.769 --> 00:49:47.630 you going to get back together? She said, no, 00:49:47.670 --> 00:49:50.989 no, no, we're getting divorced. And I said, who's 00:49:50.989 --> 00:49:53.010 your lawyer? And she said, somebody up in Sioux 00:49:53.010 --> 00:49:55.690 Falls. It's been difficult, but we all knew this 00:49:55.690 --> 00:49:57.409 was coming, that they were going to get divorced. 00:49:59.289 --> 00:50:04.969 Come on, shut up. It's so that family member 00:50:04.969 --> 00:50:09.090 that just is saying way too fucking much. And, 00:50:09.090 --> 00:50:12.090 you know, if anybody were around, they'd be like 00:50:12.090 --> 00:50:14.409 swinging their hands around. Oh, that reporter 00:50:14.409 --> 00:50:16.969 just scribbling furiously. Like, this is great. 00:50:18.190 --> 00:50:20.090 Like, we know who to go to if we need to know 00:50:20.090 --> 00:50:25.170 just everything. Oh, God, it's just too good. 00:50:25.730 --> 00:50:30.329 But, yeah, kind of funny. Anyway, what do you 00:50:30.329 --> 00:50:33.289 think? Politicians, man, they're a mess, aren't 00:50:33.289 --> 00:50:37.730 they? Yeah, politics sucks. I've been trying 00:50:37.730 --> 00:50:42.070 to gear the podcast away from politics, but it's 00:50:42.070 --> 00:50:45.250 just so hard. It's everywhere, and they're so 00:50:45.250 --> 00:50:47.820 easy to talk about. Who knows what they're going 00:50:47.820 --> 00:50:50.159 to do? Yeah, it's infectious is what it is. It's 00:50:50.159 --> 00:50:52.300 in everyday life, you know, especially since 00:50:52.300 --> 00:50:54.099 we have a dictator right now. You know, it's 00:50:54.099 --> 00:50:58.460 just been rotten. And I can't get away from it, 00:50:58.559 --> 00:51:00.739 you know. No, it's everywhere. Yeah. And I was 00:51:00.739 --> 00:51:03.920 trying to look at a Bible meme. But, you know, 00:51:03.920 --> 00:51:05.860 since it was about bimbofication, once I found 00:51:05.860 --> 00:51:08.000 that out, I'm like, oh, I know what I can talk 00:51:08.000 --> 00:51:13.780 about. Yeah. And one thing that I want to point 00:51:13.780 --> 00:51:18.420 out is that. And I said this to the artist who 00:51:18.420 --> 00:51:24.000 made the transformation, that the person making 00:51:24.000 --> 00:51:27.079 this meme about the Bible changing someone's 00:51:27.079 --> 00:51:31.320 life, they're adding a value scale to the transition. 00:51:31.659 --> 00:51:35.119 They're implying that the girl to the right is 00:51:35.119 --> 00:51:39.159 better than the girl on the left. And that's 00:51:39.159 --> 00:51:43.519 wrong, you know? They're both people who can 00:51:43.519 --> 00:51:45.219 live their life the way they want. Yeah, and 00:51:45.219 --> 00:51:47.739 they both might love books. Yeah, just because 00:51:47.739 --> 00:51:49.139 she looks like a Mibbo doesn't mean she can't 00:51:49.139 --> 00:51:51.960 read. Yeah, exactly. You can be pretty and smart. 00:51:52.099 --> 00:51:53.599 It doesn't happen a lot, but it does happen. 00:51:53.760 --> 00:51:57.619 It's a stereotype. I've seen plenty of people 00:51:57.619 --> 00:52:00.519 who look a lot like that person all the way to 00:52:00.519 --> 00:52:04.639 the left who are doctors and they get interviewed 00:52:04.639 --> 00:52:09.320 on TV and whatever else. And then you see... 00:52:10.730 --> 00:52:13.849 There was one guy who like made international 00:52:13.849 --> 00:52:16.070 news, Chinese guy who made international news 00:52:16.070 --> 00:52:21.110 for being like exceptionally intelligent. And 00:52:21.110 --> 00:52:24.110 he's a metalhead, like full on metalhead. And 00:52:24.110 --> 00:52:27.670 it's like you can't just say like this person's 00:52:27.670 --> 00:52:30.130 less valuable than that person. And that's, you 00:52:30.130 --> 00:52:32.809 know, it's just honestly, it comes down to, I 00:52:32.809 --> 00:52:34.849 think, the most important quality. Like, you 00:52:34.849 --> 00:52:36.449 know, like we're going to start saying or I'm 00:52:36.449 --> 00:52:38.130 going to start saying at the end of every podcast 00:52:38.130 --> 00:52:41.630 is. Just be kind. I think that's what says most 00:52:41.630 --> 00:52:43.849 about your value as a person. It's just how you 00:52:43.849 --> 00:52:46.989 treat others. Yeah. There's billions of people 00:52:46.989 --> 00:52:48.510 on this planet and we're all a little bit different. 00:52:48.690 --> 00:52:51.570 Yeah. Just deal with it. Roll with it. I like 00:52:51.570 --> 00:52:53.650 that we're different. Absolutely. How boring 00:52:53.650 --> 00:52:54.969 would it be if we were all the same? That would 00:52:54.969 --> 00:52:57.349 fucking suck. I would hate that. Yeah. That would 00:52:57.349 --> 00:53:00.730 fucking suck. Kristi Noem behaves as if she wants 00:53:00.730 --> 00:53:02.809 everybody to be the same. Yeah. Well, fuck that. 00:53:03.010 --> 00:53:05.489 Yeah. Fuck that and fuck her. Yeah. That's our 00:53:05.489 --> 00:53:07.909 new sign off. Fuck that and fuck Kristi Noem. 00:53:08.449 --> 00:53:12.630 Yeah. Just remember, listeners, the most important 00:53:12.630 --> 00:53:15.269 thing, you can be as kind. Thank you all so much 00:53:15.269 --> 00:53:19.150 for listening. Goodbye, everybody. Bye. Oh, my 00:53:19.150 --> 00:53:22.929 God. Politicians, man. They're so fucking weird. 00:53:23.269 --> 00:53:25.190 I thought that was a fun one, though. It was 00:53:25.190 --> 00:53:27.530 interesting. I figured we could use a fun one 00:53:27.530 --> 00:53:29.449 after that last one. All except for shooting 00:53:29.449 --> 00:53:33.329 the dog. Yeah. 14 -month -old. It's a fucking 00:53:33.329 --> 00:53:36.610 puppy. It is. Yeah, that's a puppy. shoot christy 00:53:36.610 --> 00:53:40.849 you shoot a puppy no i'm sorry you shoot a puppy 00:53:40.849 --> 00:53:42.469 somebody gets to shoot you it doesn't have to 00:53:42.469 --> 00:53:47.190 be fatal but we don't condone oh uh she means 00:53:47.190 --> 00:53:51.309 shoot christy uh um politically no
