Video summary

The video argues that regardless of whether Donald Trump or Joe Biden wins the upcoming election, the fundamental nature of the American political system will remain unchanged. The speaker contends that both parties operate under a shared set of policies that ultimately benefit the elite "inner circle" while extracting more taxes and reducing rights for the average working person. Historical examples are cited to illustrate this continuity, noting that Trump's administration increased military spending and deficits beyond previous records, while Biden is viewed as a continuation of the same establishment politics due to his role in passing the 1994 crime bill and supporting aggressive drug war policies that disproportionately affected minorities. The core thesis is that the illusion of choice between left and right is misleading, as both sides function interchangeably to maintain the status quo for the benefit of lobbyists and corporations rather than the populace. A significant portion of the discussion focuses on the erosion of civil liberties and privacy, which the speaker believes will continue under any administration. The transcript highlights recent legislative changes, such as laws allowing warrantless searches under the guise of investigating illicit activities, placing the burden of proof on citizens to prove their innocence. The speaker expresses frustration that public attention is often distracted by election narratives or media stories about figures like Julian Assange or Edward Snowden, rather than focusing on these critical issues regarding surveillance and police militarization. Furthermore, the video suggests that the drive for profit by tech companies and the military-industrial complex ensures that wars continue regardless of who holds office, as conflicts serve economic interests involving oil, resources, and arms sales, making the concept of a "peaceful" transition to a different president largely illusory. The speaker also touches upon the geopolitical landscape, specifically criticizing U.S. foreign policy interventions in regions like Iraq, Libya, and Syria, which are portrayed as driven by resource control rather than humanitarian concerns. The removal of leaders like Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi is described not as acts of liberation but as strategic moves to prevent challenges to the petrodollar hegemony and secure oil reserves. This analysis extends to China, where the speaker notes that while the U.S. criticizes Chinese human rights abuses, such as the treatment of Uyghur Muslims, these actions are tolerated because they do not threaten U.S. economic interests or resource dominance. The video concludes with a somewhat neutral but slightly hopeful outlook, suggesting that while a Biden victory might mean less divisiveness and a return to "business as usual," it will likely fail to bring material improvements like healthcare access or tax relief for ordinary citizens, leaving the system largely intact.

the situation with the election is kind of hopeful in a way that it doesn't it doesn't seem like there's anything going to be too extreme happening either way whether it's whether trump you know takes takes the uh the states to court and wins and then the election gets ruled in his favor or whether he concedes and biden takes over with a peaceful trout power uh transfer it doesn't i don't know what's your thoughts on it do you think that if anything is going to change much in terms of the economy or dollar printing or like what do you think there chomsky said at the best the party's always in power people have a illusionary viewpoint that there's a difference between the left and the right the left is a left when it benefits the left the right is a right when it benefits the right these policies are interchangeable they switch they they they switch them back and forth candidates go from different party to different party so for me i i always ask a simple question regardless of who's in power what party's in power who controls senate yada yada yada the regular average working person in the bell curve like 90 of the population no matter what we are plebs we get nothing we don't benefit we don't we're not part of the inner circle we're not part of the nepotisic uh society that they run we're not part of this lobbyist that we get upside no matter what we do get more taxes no matter what more rights are taken away from us no matter what there's more you know privacy or i'll say lack of privacy you know taken away from us so like we don't win like you just look at history you look at every single year what happens less privacy for us less rights for us less freedom for us more taxes for us and just keeps on going regardless of who's in power yeah and the wool has definitely been pulled over everybody's eyes like the distraction from the real issues of fighting against surveillance and pride and pro privacy like hard money sound money like all of that stuff like for example liberty like that's all under attack and no one's watching what there was these no knock warrants like right they passed i forget who who was it that passed it was it uh [ __ ] i forget who passed that law probably maybe i don't know who did it but it's basically uh without a warrant taken into your house and just take whatever they want under the the the guise of illicit activities and it's the the burden is on you to show them that you're not guilty so therefore you have to foot the bill for the legal costs and the lawyers think about that we as uh whatever you can call it uh the uh the legal establishment the quote-unquote legal establishment police force etc all that stuff they can come to your house and say well brad you know we uh we have assumptions that you might be you know a drug cartel and we're gonna take all these computers and we're gonna take your car we're gonna take your house we're gonna take your bank account we don't know we're not going through court system we can hold that we just don't know if you're guilty or not but it's the burdens on you to prove your innocence that's crazy yeah that that's nuts that's all infuriating that stuff but yeah it doesn't seem like biden's gonna do anything different there's like i was disappointed with trump a lot of things that he was saying that he was gonna change but then he became are you really disappointed are people like i find it i was i was actually hopeful in 2016 that trump was going to drain the swamp and that he was going to actually become you know that he wasn't an establishment politician he was going to stop spending hey i was hopeful but you know quickly quickly obviously that became you know he's he's getting spending more money on the war and sport spending more money on weapons he's spending more money on uh you know he cut a few things but he spent more money on the military than than any other president like that the trillion dollar deficit is like a new thing under trump he's he was on track to spend more than even obama and obama spent more money than any other president in history so he wasn't keeping really the only way that we can survive this is city-states that's the only way i see what is this civilization six we have to get in no we have city states now even canada has city states people forget it aboriginal land is city state legally they have their own constitution their own police force their own taxation policy their sovereign land uh apart from canadian sovereign land the united states a little bit different because they have their own states and they have more legal people really care though about it for that to work people like the convenience of not having to deal with garbage collection you know people are gonna and policing and stuff i don't think that's gonna like what's uh what i mean there's still gonna be police yeah i know i'm just thinking like that's kind of altruistic but like it's not always going to happen it would be nice people don't even care about their online surveillance you know like they'll gladly give up their rights and not care about somebody like snowden or or julian assange because cnbc or cnn told them that they hacked hillary's emails and now they're an enemy of the united states because they they gave the election of donald trump or some bs like that when they're not even looking at the facts of how they are fighting for privacy and fighting for everybody's rights people will eventually care when the boots so far up their ass and the and the waters boiling when they have no choice but to care and that will happen i find it very naive especially in canada because we're much more calm and chill that people think stuff can happen here i'm like you do forget in world war ii we imprison born japanese yeah you have a very short-term memory you do realize do you understand what we did to the aborigines here with our residential schools do you understand like not too long ago from you know 1940s what we've done to our own citizens in canada don't be so stupid and [ __ ] indeed like what we're kind of still doing even now there's still some some like people that not in canada so much but in the us like the drug war is still raging there's still like prison populations that's not gonna change right like what i was i was thinking that like because joe biden was one of the people that helped pass the um the crime bill in the 90s and supported clinton and like clinton's three strike rule holy yeah the three strike rule like they helped usher in the militarization of the police and three strikes you're out and all this all these like drug war policies that just disappro just appropriate what is that word dispro disportionately affected minorities and black men in inner cities and now 50 years or 60 years later or whatever he's still a politician and he's i don't think he's changed that much so with with uh his vice president you know kamala harris she was also doing some pretty shady stuff when she was d.a or of california was she district attorney or what was she in california i forget she like jailed more black people than anybody else or some [ __ ] like that yeah there was a lot of people that were like black men and minorities that were prosecuted by her for minor non-violent drug crimes that's what changed that's right non-violent drug deal for california and she had like like civil rights groups and everything were after her so you got like her who has a terrible reputation already for not standing up for people of color and ending these corrupt insane drug laws and and non-violent criminals like ruining their lives ruining families lives plus you got ball packed pretty much with the other uh the clinton bill clinton and the democrats in the 90s it does not seem okay let's not be too negative though because there was a really good trend of marijuana legalization and even hard drug decriminalization in some places wasn't it oregon who decriminalized most hard drugs and there was a few states that legalized psilocybin i think it was well california california in a nutshell it's not legally decriminalized but not enforced that's great like we're moving forward that's great like it's good to see that but we need to see uh it just sucks to see all these people in jail for non-violent crimes and uh a lot of people like if he gets pushed out like he'll be part of this pardon like ninety percent of the people in the for profit and get and get get ross out of jail yeah ross aldrick too get rid of get him out of jail you know i don't know can he pardon julian assange because julian assange isn't an american wait he's an american or no yeah no he's not oh then he can't but he can give him asylum okay yeah so that would be awesome it would be really nice if trump did that if he's going to get even hey countries give asylum to most random people like you look at history for example um in africa uganda it was uh idi amin you know idi amin was a dictator killed millions of people and saudi arabia gave him asylum and he died a rich man in saudi arabia but he was one of the biggest sociopaths possible crazy so i guess it does you know it's not bad it's not good it's just more status quo i'm actually a little bit leaning more towards the hopeful side of things because i think when you look at it from a net perspective of just energy you know there was more negative energy the last four years because of trump and i'm not saying trump did these things like colluded with putin and he was a agent of russia and all this stuff but the energy was there and it was fixation from social media and like you said like the ai basically like sucked everybody down the rabbit hole the the algorithms and these companies are making record profits but at the same time it it drove the people to seek out unbiased information and that the trump is a maturing candidate that this is all psyops and he's controlled opposition and they put him in place over there as an escape goat to create what's that what's that theory i don't know i'm just making up on the flyer it makes sense to me like give me something i want to hear this so this is a manchurian candidate all right well there is something going around now about how they you know people are saying that trump is playing 5d chess and he uh had like he was working with the dhs the department of homeland security to bait the the democrats into doing fraudulent mail mail and ballot rigging so with this sort of like blockchain technology ballot printing or something like that and it was a big sting operation i think it's all bs but like i think i think we find out tonight or tomorrow i think nevada is the last state for counting i think george georgia or something said there has to do a recount i don't know i'm not really keeping up to date with it just whatever but let's say biden does win the electoral college and gets the seats that he needs to get knowing trump i definitely see him um appealing that and taking that taking that to uh to the highest level possible for whether it's last time that has happened this happened with bush and gore i believe yeah i remember that was like a month or something it took no it was it took it took a while for the final results to come in from i remember i was watching uh uh bill maher every night i'd watched bill maher talk about it i was 19 20 whatever it was at the time and my friends and i would just sit down in front of the tv and watch bill maher it's always the comedians that seem to uh but watch this you know people talk about like the progressive party of of uh biden and kamel biden's either gonna die if he's president or he's gonna have to step aside because that guy's mentally ill not from a negative perspective just too old he's senile man the guy can speak english and you can't even remember anything the energy for you to be commander in chief of the world's most powerful military so he's gonna whether voluntarily step aside or be physically forced to step aside because he can't physically handle the stress of being president maybe kamala harris becomes the first female president who knows i don't know but mark my words they're gonna go to war these guys are gonna they're gonna invade iran or there's gonna the war machine is gonna continue it's no different this whole idea of being progressive this is like the most classic machiavellian you can go read the book if you guys haven't read it go read prince machiavellian fantastic book details a lot it's very it's all occam's razor it's a very common sense they'll say whatever they need to say to be voted in power once in power they have power [ __ ] off it's business as usual obama took the us from two wars to seven wars and they killed more people more people with drones than any other president yeah but i mean i used to say that too but then i heard a good argument that like you know the technology for drones came up in his era so it was just not not really his his uh initiative it was more so just a situation he found himself in just like how the 2008.com or the 2008 real estate bubble collapsed the economy and he had to print so much money well somebody had to do something and they were kicking the can down the road so but regardless obama didn't didn't stop war he increased the the amount of theaters of war and and trump didn't stop them either trump kind of made some concessions here and there but ins you know maybe he took some troops out of uh afghanistan maybe he tried to get out of syria and let the let the middle east the military the military industrial complex runs everything that's it trump was no better because he sold billions and billions of dollars what happened to saudi arabia who committed genocide in yemen so from a geo geopolitical standpoint you can see why he did that though i mean it all goes back for me to like ron paul's policies of non-interventionism and why should i why should you take tax money from the citizens to go kill people overseas like we're not we're not meant that's not what our country in canada or the united states is supposed to be doing we're not supposed to be just going over fighting wars over oil and lithium and resources and stealing tax money from people to go do that it's not constitutional and there was no votes like they didn't vote congress thinks to declare war and they haven't declared war in since uh world war ii or something like that what was the last time congress let's google that when was the last time congress declared war it's been a long time so japan yeah world war ii yeah so since then it's all been illegal wars constitutionally but yeah whether it's whether it's biden or trump or bush or obama i mean the war is going to continue because it's good for the economy it's good for jobs but trump was like obama was a bit of a statesman about it obama was just like politically like a good speaker and you know he would have a somber tone when he talked about it and he wouldn't say things straight up trump would just be like well we need to sell them the weapons because we need the money like that's that's hot that's 400 billion dollars you know that's a lot of jobs so like trump would just be just openly honest about selling all these hundreds of billions of dollars of weapons that's a little bit more it's a little bit more complicated than that right so they have they have to uh control their position against iran saudi arabia's biggest threat is uh so you tell me tell me why because i didn't follow that one very much why why is saudi arabia and yemen at war and what's the justification for it controlling geo controlling the geographical power struggle for oil production simple as that same with iran this is why iran is with russia and so saudi arabia for the longest time was a powerhouse in the middle east right so they controlled this is why united states turned a blind eye for the wahhabism of saudi arabia you mean do you know how many do you mean people or or organizations saudi arabia probably funds through their wahhabi ideology like a very twisted form of islam and uh united states since [ __ ] you know since since the ottoman empire got kicked out in what 19 world war i think with the final remnants for there was like one world war one they left saudi arabia britain came in uh bp came over there united states came over there and ever since that the united states pretty much get i think united states biggest military base outside of united states is in saudi arabia it wasn't turkey uh as i said raybury turkey but they have to uh the united states to have the relationship with saudi arabia has to provide them and it's all part of the deal provide them the military means obviously they make money from it but the military means to have the might to go against iran within the middle east it's a power struggle there so it says the biggest military base outside of the usa is bigger than new york city holy [ __ ] is it saudi arabia i'm trying to find which one it is or was it turkey i think it's a rack iraq no really no i know they built like a multi-billion dollar back i don't think that's a wreck one overseas base is vastly larger than others it's so large that its footprint is bigger than the entire city of new york it covers 303 square miles is this legit what am i reading here yeah wikipedia where is it it won't tell me huh secret location bass struck yeah it's it's on a need to know basis i think i think i'm reading some click bait here yeah cause it's making me read the entire thing and showing me a bunch of ads okay let's see here america's largest base oh my god i can't find this i believe you there are big bases there's lots of bases all over the world and uh i remember that one that they built in iraq was pretty pretty a political sort of football that they were throwing around because it was it was massive and they spent so much money on it and i think they ended up um they're here here's a classic example you know weapons of mass destruction with bush let's go to iraq and you know my uh my wife's family is kuwaiti and iraqi and uh i have first-hand experience from their family there so this isn't me reading the internet this is me talking to people who born and raised there you know right from the horse's mouth and yes saddam hussein was a cia agent highly intelligent operative was with the united states for the very longest period of time uh they had economic uh treaties with the united states and uh his bath party was sadistic like don't get me wrong so i'm like am i here clapping and celebrating saddam hussein but he was the crazy [ __ ] that was so [ __ ] crazy that other crazy [ __ ] were crazy of him because he was almost the craziest [ __ ] yeah he was he was the head of the hydra there that he even the other so-called clans and quote unquote warlords would not [ __ ] with him with the bath party so he held this very fine delicate balance of power in middle east and then when you chop off the head of the uh of the pyramid there you create a vacuum this is exactly what hillary did with [ __ ] gaddafi in libya what what iraq is right now and what libya is right now it's [ __ ] i can't even describe how bad it is and it's not you know like libya there's open slave trading happening right now that wasn't happening when gaddafi was in power daffy was the same gaddafi was do not [ __ ] with it i read afterwards that like i was i was trying to find get to the truth of that because like there's that there was that viral thing that went around when during the 2016 election when hillary was laughing about it like we came we saw he died you know and she was cackling about it and it was just kind of like okay is that a joke or is that literally how she is but regardless they didn't care about gaddafi or libya until they threatened the us dollar and they threatened to create the old petrodollar yep and create a unified african currency and afterwards i had read like people like nelson mandela supported gaddafi like that we respect as thought leaders and stuff supported gaddafi so he they didn't you know i'm sure he wasn't a good guy either but they missiled his entire family and evaporated his grandchildren it was disgusting and she's laughing about it but you know it just i was talking to my wife about this the other day because she was listening to a podcast about with somebody who escaped north korea like north korea is insane right now and if they really did care about people and suffering and ending suffering and all this stuff that they try to sell war on they would do something about north korea because that's that's a crazy situation that's happening in north korea right now there's people starving and like yeah i'll give you a better example like i i met but i was at the dmz zone so i had a good three days to chat with uh people who escaped north korea so you were you were in south korea yeah i spent a bunch of time in south korea and i spent a while at the dmz demilitarized zone there and i personally spent uh two to four days speaking with people that escaped north korea and got the inside scoop of how it is and so i'll give you a better example than north korea the [ __ ] [ __ ] happening in china right like legitimate concentration camps not like make believe con like we're talking about full blown concentration camp with uyghur muslims the no human rights policy uh they have they are first then iran they have the most executions then iran has a second execution these are public executions but yeah uh it's okay well yeah the problem with china is that they've got a military and they and they can't really just go in and take over like they took over libya iraq or whatever but even the case like if they were legitimately genuine about their concerns about saddam hussein and lib and gaddafi they would they would go in and fix that situation in north korea because north korea can't stop america from going in and overthrowing kim jong-un or whatever you know in his hair there's too much second order and third-order effects when it comes to stuff like that i know but if they really cared about it they would go do it so i'm just saying like they don't actually care about ending suffering and all the stuff that they try to sell us on and manipulate our emotions and stuff what they really care about is the resources libya was a threat gaddafi was threatening to challenge the the hegemony of the us dollar and create an african-backed currencies to trade oil in so they had to take them out iran and iraq have oil reserves and so they had to go and take the oil and prevent them from getting a monopoly on the oil and even syria like the whole reason why the the war in syria happened was because of the gas that's the pipeline that they were trying to build through syria like russia has the main pipeline that goes through syria that that connects to the rest of europe and russia has the like the gas prime bank has the monopoly on on the stranglehold of the power in in that region and so saudi arabia is trying to build a pipeline through syria and that's when every everything became oh well we care about the syrian people now and then look what happened they destroyed an entire country fighting over a gas pipeline telling us it's about like assad is gassing his people and they care about that meanwhile kim jong-un or eel or what is it un now he's i don't know he's starving his people and has them all brainwashed and like they don't care about suffering and like you said like the uyghur muslims and there's like any any any religious organizations that start up in in china they end up sending them to concentration camps because they don't they don't want anything to challenge the the cpp yep that's exactly it you know like in one way it's kind of fun be kind of funny or whatever the word is it's kind of a relief for somebody in china that is just going along obeying the traffic laws and trying not to get their social credit score dings you know taking up the garbage being polite respecting the communist party because they don't even have to think about biden versus trump they don't think about politics like everybody is just communist party it's just the communist party and it's it's a brainwashing but it frees up your mind from all this divisiveness because you just you don't have options china i like that i'm just it's an interesting observation china china will collapse like any other nation through its own internal power struggles it's the oro boris the snake eats it on tails so where in xinjingpeng finally i know probably has to die before because he's pretty much president for life for the ccp same thing with putin though i read something today putin has parkinson's and he's considering step i don't [ __ ] know uh but you'll see eventually that through the mechanism of the ouroboros and the different ethnicities within a country the snake eats so entailed there's only you can only keep power for so long until your own power system and structure collapse on itself like time is against you yeah you were telling me before in a podcast that we did a while back that like the chinese strategy of one of the war strategies of war is just to send a million people over the border like they don't care about people that was one of the cold war strategies in world war yeah yeah that overwhelmed the enemy with having to take care of their their citizens yeah and the papers a million people they would send over and like here yeah i mean that's that's like that just shows you that the way that the the the communist party thinks about the individual you know i find if it's it's hilarious hilarious it's not hilarious it's actually it's actually sad that you have people here and they're so brainwashed you have people over here clapping and uh you know they they are supporting socialism whatever you definition you want to label it as but yeah you look at the history of china through mao mao singh tung was a [ __ ] sociopath but how many people mao killed yeah wasn't it something like 20 million or a hundred million or this conservative starvation right yeah starvation camps forced labor that was the great you know he had this policy of the great leap yeah and it was to try to get people out of poverty but it actually caused a lot of death through starvation right the great leap forward yeah killed 45 million stalin was involved in that uh economic mix because russia couldn't produce a lot of food so china was producing all the grain to feed the russian army that was in what the 50s or 60s or something something like that so yeah a lot of people a lot of people came out of poverty from his policies but it was one of the biggest mass murders in history and now you got a lot more people that are like doing better like hundreds of millions or maybe even a billion people are probably doing better now because of his great leap forward but it's almost unsustainable that they can continue like this or is it because the united states opened up the door with uh what's his face the uh the bureau kraken uh kissinger when kissinger went to uh china and they uh opened up economic policies and so if china wasn't that so united states became the buyers market you know the deal was to go there get cheap slave labor and pretty much it is slave labor different now but it was slave labor and united states became the vacuum they became the buyers of everything being made in china so if it wasn't the buy sell marketplace the united states created china wouldn't be here yeah so much investment went into china and huge the last what 30 years or something it's just insane how they've grown and we've all heard stories of the ghost cities and all that where they just had this massive infrastructure roll out that that helped employ a lot of people and and do these amazing architectural construction epochs really that that was like had so many people employed and then they built these beautiful cities and then no one's in them yeah so it's a big waste just to stimulate the economy but like what's gonna happen with president biden with the china situation because president trump was very in your face about how china's manipulating their currency china's are taking advantage of the uh the manufacturing they're taking advantage of uh the the trade deficit and all that stuff so everything is said is true though they are taking an advantage yes and he was he was actually standing up against china he he was the first president to challenge the one china policy like he took a call from the taiwanese president and acknowledged that they were a legitimate like there was a leader he also publicly acknowledged that hong kong isn't a free country anymore yeah i mean one thing about trump is that like if you're not if you're following the real situation he he's not this evil racist dictator that mainstream news has you lead to believe but he isn't a great president like i'm actually happy to see that i'm not going to have to listen to trump's face voice anymore or see his face like that you're jumping the gun maybe maybe not i'd be happy to see that like regardless i'm not really like i know i'm not brainwashed into thinking that trump is a racist like you you see that trump just got more votes by black and latino and and and spanish or not black latino and um what was the other demographic he did super well with women in general latinos yeah general women so more black people voted for trump this year than any republican in 60 years so trump's obviously not this nazi like hitler racist guy that cnn and new york times make you have to believe but he is like a crude poor speaker bad example for children not very statesmanlike rude like he is all these things and it is kind of annoying to have to listen to him speak and i always have to put it on at least 1.5 x or 2x whenever i hear him to get through it but if biden wins which it looks like he will i won't be too sad that trump's i'm not gonna have to listen to him anymore and i won't have to listen to the the the make the made-up like ridiculous things that they say about him like i'm not a fan of him and i'm i'm also i don't want to be as devil's advocate i'm such a centrist i'm like okay listen i have to jump in when people are on facebook or whatever and say this is inaccurate this isn't accurate you're kind of brainwashed here i do it a lot less now but i'm glad i won't have to do that because it won't be talked about anymore that's going to be awesome so in a way it's good that this is i'm hoping there's going to be less divisiveness online and i think that just like the tea party kind of faded away in their fervent sort of like time in the limelight i think that the trump like the really hardcore trump supporters are going to kind of fade away too and that that's not going to go to like civil war or some kind it's not going to continue to grow as divisive as it has been i think sure people are going to talk about it but i feel like it's good for public discourse even though for privacy for the economy for the value of the dollar it's bad that another establishment politician is in power but in a way it's good so i'm i'm just kind of like neutral on it but slightly leaning towards positive that biden looks like he's going to win but i'd what i also don't want to see biden president because i know all the crazy [ __ ] that that the that they did you know they they kind of like are not going to change anything people's lives aren't going to material change under biden not like people are going to get health care or they're you know going to see their taxes go down or their their quality of life's not going to go up it's still going to be more insiders getting richer and they'll leave listen the name of the game is status quo that's it keep the machine going
