Devon
00:00:00 Good morning, good evening, good afternoon.
00:02:07 How you guys doing?
00:02:09 How you guys doing?
00:02:11 It's been an eventful day for me.
00:02:13 I don't know about you.
00:02:16 Then drilling holes through walls.
00:02:20 Made of stone, concrete, and cinder block.
00:02:24 That's always fun.
00:02:26 That makes a mess.
00:02:28 Dust gets everywhere.
00:02:30 That's something that I didn't count on.
00:02:33 But all the same I have to run.
00:02:35 Cables through walls.
00:02:38 And uh.
00:02:41 Grind the holes a little bit bigger after I drill them, because the the giant drill bit that.
00:02:45 I got apparently is not.
00:02:46 It's just barely.
00:02:48 It's just barely not big enough to feed some of the the cables I have to to feed through, which is really kind of annoying, but anyway.
00:02:58 So hope you guys are enjoying yourselves.
00:03:02 We're going to be looking at a the film that I was talking about last week and I'm glad that it took an extra day or so to think about it and to watch it again and to to separate out some clips and stuff because I.
00:03:15 Want to go?
00:03:17 A slightly slightly different way, a way that's maybe.
00:03:22 A little more.
00:03:24 More honest a way.
00:03:25 That's maybe a little more.
Speaker 2
00:03:28 UM.
Devon
00:03:30 Something that shares the blame, something that's not so much as let's, let's shoot on the generations before us.
00:03:38 But let's look at a systemic problem that exists in.
00:03:44 Well, every living generation of Americans.
00:03:47 And and who knows how you know how long, how far it goes back.
00:03:50 But I would say.
00:03:53 Well, really every successful.
00:03:57 You know, economically successful.
00:04:00 Society in the West.
00:04:04 Every society, that's that's kind of undergoing.
00:04:08 The well, the, the, the.
00:04:10 Effects of decadence and kind of examine why is it?
00:04:17 That we've allowed these hordes of of third worlders Chase Santa Claus with a spear.
00:04:23 Like why?
00:04:24 Why have we allowed?
00:04:25 This to happen.
00:04:25 And as a as a people in in.
00:04:29 Nearly every country.
00:04:31 And it's easy to say, well, you know, it was the boomers or it's the elites.
00:04:37 Or you know.
00:04:38 Or whatever.
00:04:40 And it doesn't matter where the idea or you know the policies originate really.
00:04:47 I mean, it matters.
00:04:47 That's something that that is worth examining.
00:04:50 And I think that most of you know the answers.
00:04:52 To that to that question, but.
00:04:54 But moreover, why were they so?
00:04:57 Easy. Apparently across the board.
00:05:00 Why was it?
00:05:01 So easy to get those policies in place.
00:05:05 And to get those policies to.
00:05:06 Stay in place.
00:05:08 So long that it's now as I talked.
00:05:12 About in the last stream.
00:05:13 I mean it.
00:05:15 It's how.
00:05:16 How would you revert in America, at least like?
00:05:18 How would you?
00:05:19 Reverse it.
00:05:20 You really can't.
00:05:21 How would you UN bake this cake in America?
00:05:23 You really can't.
00:05:25 The demographics have been changed so dramatically in just a really short period of time, but not really.
00:05:32 I mean, it took it took decades.
00:05:36 And the population let it happen.
00:05:41 And and every generation, you know.
00:05:42 It's really easy for.
00:05:43 Us to say, like I said.
00:05:45 The Ohh the boomer.
00:05:46 Should have stopped this, you know.
00:05:47 Whatever. But it's not like.
00:05:50 The zoomers have.
00:05:51 The ability to stop.
00:05:52 It it's not like the millennials have the ability.
00:05:55 To stop it.
00:05:56 It's not like the Gen.
00:05:57 Xers have the ability to stop it.
00:06:03 So what makes you?
00:06:04 Think the boomers have the ability?
Speaker 3
00:06:05 To stop it.
Devon
00:06:07 Well, you know that you could.
00:06:08 Say well, their demographics were different and that's true.
00:06:11 That is true.
00:06:16 I think you're missing a key.
00:06:20 Element that we don't often talk about.
00:06:24 A key element that is maybe inadvertently inserted into the film.
00:06:31 That we are.
00:06:32 Going to go over tonight.
00:06:35 And the film, in fact, one of the reasons why I think it's important to not not focus on zaboomafoo's.
00:06:43 So much.
00:06:46 Is in the film that we're going to talk about.
00:06:49 It kind of has in the same way Gen.
00:06:51 X is often overlooked for some reason.
00:06:55 There is kind of.
00:06:56 Like I don't know why.
00:06:57 The the the the window.
00:06:59 For Boomer is like really ******* big, like, really big, it's like.
00:07:04 It seems like there's a whole wide range.
00:07:09 Of ages where you can be a boomer.
00:07:13 And I don't mean the way that, you know, people say like 30 year old boomer stuff.
00:07:16 I mean like.
00:07:16 The way that it's just categorized.
00:07:19 In this film, the main character, while you could say.
00:07:25 They are the quintessential boomer.
00:07:30 It really is like, I guess, like in the same way that those.
00:07:35 Old, old Gen.
00:07:36 Xers, Young Gen.
00:07:37 Old millennials, young millennials.
00:07:39 With boomers, it's like because it's a wider range.
00:07:42 There's like, really.
00:07:43 Old boomers and then really.
00:07:45 Well, not as old, I guess, boomers.
00:07:48 And this is, I would say, more of a really old boomer if you're.
00:07:51 Going to call him the boomer.
00:07:53 Think of it in terms of wars, right?
00:07:56 You had the generation before the boomers, they thought.
00:07:59 World War 2.
00:08:01 And the boomers?
00:08:03 They fought Vietnam, but all the time people forget that little pesky worn between Korea.
00:08:10 And the main character in this film.
00:08:13 Fought in the war in Korea.
00:08:16 So he's like this in between.
00:08:20 So without further ado, let's kind of just dive right in.
00:08:23 I know there's some new stuff that we could talk about, but let's save that till until after.
00:08:29 And uh, because there's nothing too terribly pressing, I think it's just a lot of it's just more of the.
00:08:35 Same and it's going.
00:08:36 To just be more.
00:08:37 Of the same for the rest of your life.
00:08:39 So I mean, you know, and don't worry if you missed it, it's going to increase in frequency and in the amplitude, so.
00:08:49 Missing. It might not be.
00:08:50 The worst?
00:08:51 So the film that I'm talking about is a movie that most of you I would think are familiar with, or at least unless you're.
00:08:58 You're very young because.
00:08:59 It's not that old, it's grand Torino.
00:09:04 Grand Torino, directed by Clint Eastwood.
00:09:08 Well, and starring Clint Eastwood.
00:09:13 And Full disclosure.
00:09:16 Clint Eastwood, or whoever runs his social media has has retweeted me and or either retweeted me or gabbed me or whatever at at some point in time and I and and as much as you know, I played him. He was in the the Romneys, the highlight reel from the the 20. What was the 2012?
00:09:37 R&C, being kind of a boomer saying, go ahead, make my day or whatever I think in terms of the, you know, famous people, especially famous people his age. Clint Eastwood is kind of based and in this movie, I think.
00:09:51 He set out.
00:09:52 To be kind of based.
00:09:55 And I think that because and we can learn a lot from that by the way, just.
00:10:00 The fact that he missed some of this.
00:10:05 That we're going to.
00:10:05 Be going over.
00:10:08 And why?
Speaker 2
00:10:08 He might have missed it.
Devon
00:10:11 But first, let's focus on.
00:10:13 What he intended to say.
00:10:16 So let's let's go to the opening scene here and this can be a little tricky.
00:10:21 Because of the way I've got this set up, I wasn't able to hook up my third monitor, but I think we can.
00:10:26 Make this work.
00:10:29 And I'll just keep an eye on the tablet here because I'm not going to be able to see.
Speaker 3
00:10:34 O to the B to the.
Devon
00:10:36 S unless I do some resizing here, maybe I?
00:10:39 Can do something like that.
00:10:42 Let's try some of this.
00:10:43 Well, that might work alright.
00:10:46 Well, problem solved.
Speaker
00:10:49 I'll just do that.
Devon
00:10:51 OK.
00:10:55 So this is.
00:10:58 Either the opening shot or one of the opening shots in this film because ultimately.
00:11:04 What this movie is?
00:11:05 About let me get my disclaimer.
00:11:07 Up. I gotta do that.
00:11:12 It will be us out of the way there.
00:11:15 Oh, there we go.
00:11:18 OK.
00:11:20 So this movie in a lot of ways, it's about death.
00:11:27 It's about the death of a generation.
00:11:30 It's about the death of a country.
00:11:34 And it's of course you know about the death of the main character, but the main character in many ways is symbolic of the way that the United States.
00:11:47 Was when we when we.
00:11:49 Think back to like the 1950s. We've talked about like the leave it.
00:11:52 To Beaver propaganda.
00:11:53 You know, we look back at the that era.
00:11:58 You know, kind of romantically.
00:12:00 And it's the death of.
00:12:03 That reality.
00:12:05 And why it's never coming back?
00:12:08 And who?
00:12:09 That country is being handed over to, but moreover.
00:12:15 And again, I I don't think.
00:12:18 They intended to put the Y in there as as much as they did, but.
Speaker 2
00:12:24 We'll go over that here in a second so.
Devon
00:12:26 The movie opens up with a funeral.
00:12:30 And it is.
00:12:31 The funeral of Clint Eastwood's character Walt, his wife.
00:12:40 And it's a Catholic Church.
00:12:42 There is a little bit of.
00:12:43 A Catholic element to.
00:12:44 This film, but I'm we're we're going to kind of.
00:12:48 Pass over that because it's not.
00:12:51 I don't think as important as the rest of it there.
00:12:56 So in this first scene.
00:13:00 We are in the funeral or in the Catholic Church for the funeral of Walt's wife.
00:13:07 And you can tell right away he's kind of a bitter, angry old man.
00:13:14 And he watches as his children and grandchildren filter into the church.
00:13:22 And there being obviously disrespect.
00:13:26 One of his granddaughters has a belly button piercing and I think like a nose piercing and he, like, looks at her and and disgust.
00:13:35 He's very upset.
00:13:37 One of the grandkids, while doing the little cross symbol that Catholics do makes.
00:13:46 Says some juvenile rhyme to make fun of it.
00:13:53 His granddaughters on her phone the whole time, you know, not paying attention, one of the kids shows up in a jersey.
00:14:01 And it's just very, very.
00:14:03 You know, the whole thing is just very disrespectful.
00:14:07 And he's very upset by this.
00:14:10 And in fact, is this the right clip?
00:14:12 Yeah, that's the right clip.
00:14:13 OK.
00:14:15 And his children, his sons, his two sons.
00:14:19 They comment on his attitude.
00:14:22 As if you know like they can't understand why he would be upset by the behavior of his grandchildren, which kind of clues you into the the, the, the the difference in culture between the two generations.
00:14:37 You have waltz generation, the generation, like I said, that's kind of like an old baby boomer.
00:14:43 Where he fought in Korea so.
00:14:46 That would put him at, I mean this.
00:14:48 I mean, well, Clint Eastwood.
00:14:50 He's gonna be really ******* old these days or.
00:14:52 Didn't I? Don't even.
00:14:54 I don't know if he just died.
00:14:55 Or like he's he's got.
00:14:56 To be really old.
00:14:59 In fact, I should look that.
00:15:00 Let's see how old he is.
00:15:03 How old is Clint Eastwood?
00:15:11 All right, 90.
00:15:16 So yeah, he's not dead yet.
00:15:18 But he's 90.
00:15:21 Oh, he's 6 foot ******* four.
00:15:22 I did not know that.
00:15:24 That's well, he's probably not 6 foot four anymore, but.
00:15:28 Good Lord.
00:15:29 Yeah, people shrink.
00:15:31 I used to be shorter than my dad, and I realized just recently that that is no longer the case.
Speaker 5
00:15:37 Take that.
Devon
00:15:37 Dad. So anyway.
Speaker 5
00:15:43 So he's you.
Devon
00:15:43 Know he's 90. When this movie came out, it was, I think, 2007 ish.
00:15:49 In fact, let me look that.
00:15:50 Up too. Let's see here.
00:15:58 I think it was 2007.
00:16:01 2008 all right, so when this came out?
00:16:05 Yeah, he was.
00:16:05 He was pretty ******* old still.
00:16:07 And he was in his late 70s.
00:16:10 And so that would he was born.
00:16:13 When was he born? 1930. The Korean War was in the 50s.
00:16:19 So that that works out so again.
00:16:22 I don't think 1930 isn't exactly the baby boom, but a lot of people would.
00:16:27 Call this guy a boomer for some reason.
00:16:31 Alright, so his children I guess, would be like young boomers, right?
00:16:36 Because if if he's a 90.
00:16:39 Well, I guess.
00:16:40 When this movie came out, if he's late 70s, that would put his children, you know, like late 40s, which works out.
00:16:48 But you know that that's the actors that are playing his children about that, right.
00:16:54 Anyway, here's his sons talking about their father's reaction.
Speaker 2
00:17:01 The way the old man will learn at Ashley.
00:17:03 I thought we would.
Devon
00:17:04 Have audio do we have audio?
00:17:07 Sorry, I would muck you around this.
Speaker 2
00:17:08 It's getting down and down for mom's feel.
Devon
00:17:11 OK.
00:17:11 We do have audio.
Speaker 2
00:17:12 I just couldn't hear it.
00:17:14 Bring that back here.
00:17:17 The way the old man learned it, actually.
00:17:20 Can't even tone it down for months.
Speaker 6
00:17:24 Expect Dad still living in the 50s expects his granddaughter to dress a little more.
Speaker 2
00:17:29 Modestly, you know, like cats wearing on lions Jersey, Hampshire dad appreciates that.
Speaker 6
00:17:34 What I'm trying to make is that there's nothing anyone can do that won't disappoint the old man.
00:17:38 It's inevitable.
Devon
00:17:42 So if you didn't catch that, he was saying that, you know. But Dad, Dad looks like he's ****** *** because, you know, your son's wearing a jersey and and my daughter's not dressed as modestly as she should be. He's never happy with anything. He's always ****** ***, you know, it's so easy to disappoint him.
00:18:02 And he looks at them in disgust.
00:18:07 Away we go so.
00:18:08 After the funeral, they kind of have like the wake or whatever it's called that the the post, the post funeral gathering at his house.
00:18:20 And he goes into the garage.
00:18:23 And he sees his, I guess millennial granddaughter smoking, but also admiring his car, which is a Gran Torino, which is what the movie is, is named after.
00:18:36 Right.
00:18:37 And that which is very important.
00:18:38 We'll get into that in a second.
00:18:40 And she says, you know.
00:18:43 That's a really cool vintage car.
00:18:45 Grandpa, what are you going to do?
00:18:47 With it, when you die.
00:18:50 And he just gets extra ****** ***.
00:18:56 At this moment and again this is.
00:18:58 Something that I don't think the film fully.
00:19:02 Is self aware of.
00:19:04 But at this moment.
00:19:07 You realize what's true of this younger generation of Americans?
00:19:12 And that is that they're focused on the material.
00:19:17 They're focused on goodies.
00:19:20 They're focused on stuff.
00:19:23 They just want more stuff.
00:19:27 But what the film?
00:19:29 Seems to miss.
00:19:32 Is that?
00:19:33 The exact same thing.
00:19:36 Is true about him.
Speaker 7
00:19:40 The exact same.
Devon
00:19:41 Now she's being kind of a **** about it, saying, like, when are you going to die?
00:19:44 So and get your ******* car.
00:19:47 But as we'll see in the movie.
00:19:50 He treats this car better than he.
00:19:53 Treats his family.
00:19:56 This car is his prized possession.
00:20:00 This car is the most important thing to him.
00:20:06 It's not his relationship with his his children.
00:20:08 It's not his relationship with his grandchildren.
00:20:14 Or with his, with his religion or anything.
00:20:17 It's this car.
00:20:20 That's his prized possession.
00:20:24 So while this film tries to to demonize.
00:20:28 The millennial as just being so focused on possessions.
00:20:33 It kind of misses the mark because.
00:20:37 That's precisely what every, and not just, not just the millennial on this guy, but also his his sons.
00:20:45 That's what every generation of Americans is focused on is on stuff.
00:20:53 On getting more stuff.
Speaker 5
00:20:56 What we see is.
Devon
00:20:57 It's 3 generations like a cascade effect where each generation.
00:21:03 Is just focused.
00:21:05 On more and more stuff.
00:21:09 And each generation, because they're focused on stuff and not on community and not on family or anything else.
Speaker 5
00:21:18 They lose.
Devon
00:21:20 A little bit of that bond each generation.
00:21:26 And it just.
00:21:27 Gets worse and worse and worse, and it's.
00:21:28 Because of the availability of stuff.
00:21:34 It's a direct result of the decadence that they're living in.
00:21:37 He came on the scene at.
00:21:39 The very beginning of it.
00:21:43 So he had to work at the Ford factory, you know, breaking his back and and whatever to.
00:21:48 Get his stuff.
00:21:50 And then his son had to work a.
00:21:51 Little bit less.
00:21:53 And now his granddaughter doesn't have.
00:21:55 To work at all.
00:21:58 And each generation, the desire for stuff.
00:22:03 Becomes more and more important.
00:22:07 Now in this movie they try.
00:22:08 To make it as.
00:22:09 If this is a problem that only exists with this generation.
00:22:14 Well, and and her.
00:22:17 And her parents?
00:22:19 But it's just as important to.
00:22:23 To Clint over here.
00:22:30 So by contrast, next door.
00:22:34 And I'm going to say this wrong, I'm just going to tell you, I don't care that I'm saying it wrong.
00:22:38 I'm going to.
00:22:38 Call them *****.
00:22:39 I know you're supposed to.
Speaker 3
00:22:39 It's both.
Speaker
00:22:40 Call it something else. It's.
Devon
00:22:41 Like I don't know.
00:22:42 Who cares?
00:22:43 I'm calling them *****.
00:22:45 So next door.
00:22:47 A family of.
00:22:47 ***** move in.
00:22:52 And the contrast is deliberately drawn that while his family, they're acting like vultures, they're showing up and they're just circling around whine.
00:23:03 They get stuck and look like I said.
00:23:05 They focus on that aspect of.
00:23:06 It and not on the.
00:23:08 Minds early aspect.
00:23:09 Of him not.
00:23:10 Wanting to give his family his stuff.
Speaker 5
00:23:15 He likes the stuff just as much.
Devon
00:23:16 As they do.
00:23:19 If he was this holier than thou character, that didn't care about stuff, he would just give him the stuff because he wouldn't.
00:23:26 Care about stuff.
00:23:27 But he cares just as much.
00:23:28 About stuff whereas the *****.
00:23:32 They care about hanging out as a family.
00:23:35 They care.
00:23:35 They care about tradition.
00:23:38 They care about tradition and that's another thing that you're going to see is Clint Eastwood's character is very upset. That tradition is slowly being erased from the society around him.
00:23:50 Without, again, without taking accountability.
00:23:54 For, well, how do you think traditions are passed?
00:23:56 Down it's not magic.
00:24:02 In fact, let's look at the.
00:24:03 **** people here.
00:24:08 They have this tradition.
00:24:10 Because people are being they're being indoctrinated into it by participating in it.
00:24:22 So next we meet one.
00:24:24 Of the *****.
00:24:26 And we're just going to call him Tom because his real name is unpronounceable.
00:24:34 Now we also see.
00:24:37 An effect of this isn't another thing.
00:24:39 The movie focuses on heavily.
00:24:42 And that is the diversity of the the neighborhood and how it's Chad.
00:24:49 This used to be a very.
00:24:51 White part of the country.
00:24:52 This is Michigan.
00:24:55 Probably a suburb of Detroit or Detroit itself.
00:24:59 I don't know if they actually say, but it's Michigan and he used to work for like a a car company like, Think Ford, so probably Detroit.
00:25:09 And so we.
00:25:10 See Tom the ****.
00:25:14 You know, he's got a book.
00:25:15 He's a good kid.
00:25:17 He's, you know, he's good.
00:25:19 At math.
00:25:20 And he's he's just trying to be a.
00:25:23 Good little boy.
00:25:25 And then the gangsters roll up.
00:25:26 The Mexican gangsters roll up.
00:25:29 And the Mexican gangsters talk **** to.
00:25:32 Him and they want to fight him.
00:25:35 And then the ***** the **** Gang shows up.
00:25:39 Even more diversity, this is like super diversity and then we have the war between diversity, where the diversity team A is like **** you, where SA and diversity Team B.
00:25:53 Is like the ***** with a Nazi.
00:25:56 Who sound like they're black for some reason.
00:26:03 They save Tom from the Mexican gangs.
00:26:09 And they they tell them, like, look, we we just saved your ***.
00:26:12 And so for protection you need.
00:26:15 To join our gang.
00:26:17 You need to join our gang because diversity is not even safe for other kinds.
00:26:21 Of diversity in America now.
00:26:24 While this used to be a nice working class white neighborhood.
00:26:29 It's now full of people like us and so.
00:26:32 The only way?
00:26:33 To survive is for you to join our gang and we'll protect you from the other gangs.
00:26:41 But Tom's a good boy.
00:26:43 You know, he doesn't want to do it at first at least.
00:26:47 So they keep harassing him and they keep harassing him and finally they they drag him out and say, look.
00:26:54 You got to join our gang.
00:26:56 And what you have to do?
00:27:00 In order to be initiated into our gang is you have to steal Clint Eastwood AKA Waltz.
00:27:08 Gran Torino.
00:27:12 One of the the weirdest part of this movies was that guy on the far right knew like everything about that car, which I find that.
00:27:19 Hard to believe.
00:27:20 But anyway.
00:27:21 I just I I don't think.
00:27:22 Asian gangs are into American muscle cars, but all the same.
00:27:26 So they tell Tom, if you steal this car, then you're in the you're in the **** Gang and you'll be safe from the the Mexican gang.
00:27:41 All right, so there we go to that night or later that night.
00:27:46 And he's being loud trying to steal the car and Walt's going to have none of that ****. So he comes running in there with his rifle from Korea.
00:27:57 About to blast him some some long ***, but because he's an old man and whatever he he slips and falls.
00:28:07 And the **** guy gets away.
00:28:14 So he starts putting up bars on his windows.
00:28:18 Again, it's it's, it's just, it's another sign that this is no longer the safe white working class neighborhood.
00:28:27 Where he grew or you?
00:28:28 Know where he like I.
00:28:30 Guess he didn't grow up.
00:28:30 But where?
00:28:31 He raised his kids.
00:28:35 And in addition to that.
00:28:38 He gets a phone call from his son to again.
00:28:44 That there is no connection between really anybody and his family.
00:28:50 You know which is again, it's it's symbolic of.
00:28:53 The white Americans.
00:28:55 They're they're just focused on stuff.
00:28:58 They're focused on stuff.
00:29:00 They're focused on dopamine.
00:29:02 They're focused on comfort.
00:29:05 And so he gets this phone call from his.
Speaker 3
00:29:07 Son hello.
Speaker 2
00:29:11 Hey, good morning, Dan.
00:29:11 It's your number one son.
Speaker 3
00:29:12 Mitch, morning.
00:29:15 It's after one in the afternoon, it's not morning.
Devon
00:29:18 Right. Afternoon then.
Speaker 3
00:29:22 So what do you want?
Speaker 2
00:29:26 No, nothing.
00:29:27 I mean, what would I?
Speaker 3
00:29:28 Want. Well, I don't know. Your wife's already gone through all your mother's jewelry.
Speaker 7
00:29:35 No, dad. I'm just just.
Speaker 4
00:29:36 Calling to see how you're doing just.
Speaker
00:29:38 Anything new with the?
00:29:39 Old neighborhood.
Speaker 3
00:29:42 No, great.
00:29:44 Smooth sailing, yeah.
Devon
00:29:47 OK, good. Good then.
Speaker 3
00:29:49 Oh, hey, dad.
00:29:51 Yeah, you wouldn't happen to.
Speaker 2
00:29:53 Still know that guy from the.
00:29:54 Plant that has the Lions season tickets.
Speaker 3
00:29:58 How are you?
Devon
00:30:05 So again.
00:30:07 It's this focus on stuff.
00:30:10 His son didn't call up to really see how his his father was doing.
00:30:14 Right after his mom died.
00:30:17 He called him to see if he could get him some season tickets to the Lions.
00:30:26 All that generation wants is his stuff.
00:30:30 And again, the movie frames it like.
00:30:33 Oh these younger generations.
Speaker 5
00:30:35 The only one is my stuff, my stuff.
Devon
00:30:39 Without looking in the mirror or I guess in this case the reflection in the Grand Torino.
00:30:46 And realizing.
00:30:48 That's all you care about is your stuff.
00:30:53 Look how you treated your son.
00:30:56 And look how you're.
00:30:56 Treating your stuff.
Speaker 5
00:31:01 This is the most.
Devon
00:31:02 Important thing to you.
00:31:06 You never treat anyone in the movie.
00:31:11 As well as you do that car.
Speaker 5
00:31:18 He's just as obsessed with stuff.
Devon
00:31:23 As his children and his grandchildren.
00:31:27 He's just not able.
00:31:28 To see it.
00:31:34 He just sees the the, the, the.
00:31:37 Later generations as wanting his stuff.
Speaker 5
00:31:44 All they care about is my stuff.
Devon
00:31:51 And here's another part of.
00:31:52 The movie that that they that that really.
00:31:57 Again, is is totally ignored in terms of this situation.
00:32:03 Perhaps if if Walt here.
00:32:08 Had paid as much attention.
00:32:10 To his sons.
00:32:13 And treated his sons as well as he.
00:32:15 Treats this car.
00:32:20 They wouldn't just be calling up asking for stuff.
00:32:26 They might actually have a relationship with him.
00:32:33 But he's not able to see that he's not.
00:32:35 Able to look at himself and say.
00:32:38 Ohh you know this, this this whole not having a relationship with my son.
00:32:44 That's like at the very least, a two way St.
00:32:51 Maybe if instead of waxing this *******?
00:32:53 Car all the time.
00:32:59 I had spent some time with my.
00:33:01 Son mentoring him.
00:33:04 He'd want something to do with me now that.
00:33:06 He's out of the house.
00:33:11 But why would his sons want?
00:33:13 To have.
00:33:13 Anything to do with him?
00:33:16 They probably don't.
Speaker 2
00:33:17 Even know him that well.
Devon
00:33:22 So moving right along.
00:33:25 The Tom.
00:33:27 Who has failed to steal?
00:33:29 The grand the stuff.
00:33:30 The grand Torino.
00:33:33 Is once again accosted by spider spider, the gangster, the **** Gangsta.
Speaker 5
00:33:42 The spider is.
Devon
00:33:43 A cool name.
00:33:44 You know, The funny thing about this movie?
00:33:46 And I I need to go back and rewatch some other Clint Eastwood movies because it just they're really stuck out, and I don't know if it's just because I saw this movie as a kid.
00:33:54 My parents, I think, dragged this to this movie because I saw it with my parents and like.
00:34:01 I guess it wasn't.
00:34:02 That much of a kid, it was 2008.
00:34:03 Still I I saw with my parents and and my siblings.
00:34:08 And I don't.
00:34:09 I don't remember it being so after school specially.
00:34:14 But it's after school, specially like very after school specially and.
00:34:19 You know Clint.
00:34:19 Eastwood he he knows story.
00:34:21 The story structure is.
00:34:23 The the directing is good, the cinematography is pretty OK.
00:34:26 I mean, it could be better but.
00:34:28 The acting is kind of.
00:34:30 Kind of after school specially.
00:34:33 You know, and uh, you know.
00:34:36 Even it's Clint Eastwood, his acting is good.
00:34:40 But even like the scenarios he puts himself himself in, where like this old man is acting like a a 40 year old it, you know, in terms of his physical strength and stuff like that, it's a little again, it's a little after school special.
00:34:54 It's a little unbelievable.
00:34:57 And so that's kind of like the case some of these.
00:34:58 Scenarios are just.
00:34:59 Like, OK, but it's like a family film and it, you know, whatever.
00:35:03 It works, so Spider comes and he's like you better join the gang, *****.
00:35:10 Cause that's you know how it works.
00:35:12 And, you know, he starts dragging him off and the family comes out and they're like.
00:35:16 No. Leave my son alone.
00:35:18 And then Clint Eastwood comes barreling out of his ******* house with again with his Korea gun, and starts talking about how he's going to start blasting ***** and how he he used to stack their bodies, you know, 6 feet tall and.
00:35:32 In Korea, and he bet they better run.
00:35:35 And so that scares them off, and the and Tom's mom, who doesn't speak a lick of English and apparently doesn't have a dad, gets very he's very thankful and and the neighborhood ***** start bringing him food.
00:35:57 Like like he's some kind of Hindu temple or something.
00:36:01 Not sure if that's.
00:36:02 Like a real.
00:36:03 Thing that would happen or whatever doesn't really matter.
00:36:11 You know he.
00:36:12 He's I I missed that shot.
00:36:14 Oh, well, it just ****** him off and he doesn't really like it.
00:36:18 So next we start, we get to know Tom's sister, but also again this is, you know, this movie is made by a guy who at the time was, you know, his in in his late 70s and the.
00:36:35 This was supposed to in many ways, ****.
00:36:38 On the younger.
00:36:39 Generations right to show like, oh, these kids these days.
00:36:44 They in fact.
00:36:45 In some ways you could even name this movie.
00:36:47 Kids these days, the movie.
00:36:50 And that's a lot of what this movie is or, or more specifically white kids these days.
00:36:55 The movie.
00:36:58 And so on this scene.
00:37:00 He ***** on the the the, the frailty.
00:37:07 Of the white kids that are like, you know.
00:37:10 This guy, who we're about to see.
00:37:12 In a second, this is the the wannabe boyfriend of.
00:37:15 The mom girl.
00:37:16 Tom's sister next door.
00:37:18 And this guy is a wigger and in pathetic and weak.
00:37:28 Not very inaccurate if you want to.
00:37:31 Make some generalizations.
00:37:34 Where he's pointing out to this younger generation and basically saying look at these weak white kids.
00:37:40 Where they're desperately trying to adopt black culture.
00:37:45 But again, can you blame them?
00:37:47 The older generations failed to transmit the white culture to them.
00:37:52 So what are they going to do?
00:37:53 They're going to take culture from.
00:37:55 The TV and from movies.
00:37:58 And for music.
00:38:01 Which is precisely what this kid has done.
00:38:07 He's also showing.
00:38:10 That they are, they're weak.
00:38:14 When confronted by the people that they're larping as.
00:38:18 They're weak.
00:38:19 They stare at their shoes, they don't fight back.
00:38:24 And again, this movie might have been in 2008, but how many of?
00:38:26 Us have seen just.
00:38:29 Endless amounts of videos.
00:38:32 Of this happening to white kids, white kids just staring at their shoes non confrontational while.
00:38:38 Diversity beats the **** out of them.
00:38:44 You might not like.
00:38:45 The critique, but it's.
00:38:48 It's not inaccurate.
00:38:53 That's another product of decadence.
00:39:00 Again, this movie is showing you why white America is dying and who's taking it.
00:39:06 Who's taking?
00:39:07 Over and why?
00:39:10 And I don't think it was 100% intended that way, but it does.
00:39:15 A ****** ******* good job of it.
Speaker 5
00:39:20 And this is.
Devon
00:39:22 Another one of those reasons.
00:39:26 These weak.
00:39:29 Young white men.
00:39:32 With no culture of their own.
00:39:36 With no role.
00:39:37 Models of their own.
00:39:40 Adopting black culture, thug culture, but superficially.
00:39:48 And then when they're actually put into a situation where they have to interact with diversity.
00:39:55 Diversity rejects them.
00:40:00 So this is this is.
00:40:03 Part of that seeing here.
Speaker 3
00:40:06 Everything go downhill after that.
Speaker 8
00:40:08 Yeah, yeah.
Speaker
00:40:08 You know.
Speaker 7
00:40:09 So it's.
00:40:12 That's cool, you know.
Speaker 9
00:40:20 Man, look at.
00:40:21 Ohh ship.
00:40:24 Ohh yeah.
00:40:25 Bring that little tight asss over here.
00:40:27 Come here girl.
Speaker 4
00:40:29 You can't say hi.
Speaker
00:40:31 Are you acting all stuck up and ****?
Speaker 9
00:40:35 What you supposed to be man?
Speaker 7
00:40:37 It's cool, dog.
Speaker 9
00:40:40 The **** you doing in my neighborhood, boy?
Speaker 7
00:40:43 It's going out of corner spot, you.
00:40:44 Know get some CD's. It's all good, bro. Come on. So good bro.
Speaker
00:40:53 Hey bro, again and I'll bite your.
00:40:55 ************* face up.
Speaker 9
00:40:57 Now, what the ****?
00:40:58 Y'all come down here for, huh?
00:41:00 You you here to bring me?
00:41:01 This little present.
Speaker 4
00:41:02 How much to?
Speaker 9
00:41:02 You bring it to us.
Speaker
00:41:05 Don't worry, I'm going to take real.
Speaker 3
00:41:07 Good care of her.
Devon
00:41:17 And so here you see.
00:41:19 The older generation.
00:41:21 Again, without without like a whole lot of.
00:41:23 Self-awareness on this.
00:41:27 Looking at how.
00:41:28 The neighborhood has changed.
00:41:31 Looking at how he.
00:41:32 Had to put bars on his windows.
00:41:35 Looking at how there's there's.
00:41:38 Diversity trouble on the corner?
00:41:41 Looking at how I mean if you look.
00:41:43 At the.
00:41:44 The neighborhood, obviously, like all the the lawns, are overgrown.
00:41:47 The I mean, you've seen Detroit.
00:41:52 All the houses are falling apart.
00:41:57 Just looking at it in disgust.
00:42:01 But again, without actually.
00:42:04 Looking in the mirror.
00:42:08 Without taking any kind of responsibility.
00:42:12 For why it came to this.
00:42:15 And again, I'm not saying that that this generation or any generation.
00:42:20 Is 100% responsible for what's going on.
00:42:24 In fact, I'm saying that.
00:42:27 Every generation needs to look at why they are a participant.
00:42:34 In the decline.
00:42:37 And that you can't just.
00:42:40 Focus all of the blame onto people like.
00:42:43 Walt over here.
00:42:48 But that certainly.
00:42:51 His generation played played their role like every generation has.
00:42:58 And his generation does seem to be.
00:43:01 In denial, but again.
00:43:02 I think so is every generation.
Speaker
00:43:08 Oh yeah.
Speaker 3
00:43:10 Right here.
Speaker 10
00:43:11 Oh, great.
00:43:12 Another ******* was a fetish for.
00:43:14 Asian girls God, they get so old.
Devon
00:43:17 That's the after school, should I?
00:43:18 Was talking about where like the.
00:43:20 The dialogue is just like.
00:43:22 Who wrote this?
00:43:23 **** and the acting is like, come on.
00:43:25 That's the take that you guys went with like.
00:43:29 Like and it's it's specifically the the, the **** people.
00:43:34 I don't know if it's because like they needed ***** and there's just not.
00:43:37 A lot of.
00:43:37 Good like ***** suck at acting or something.
00:43:40 But the **** characters?
00:43:41 Well, the two main **** characters, at least the Tom and and this chick they're acting is just like.
00:43:48 It's like high school play acting.
00:43:50 It's it's, it's.
Speaker 3
00:43:51 That bad?
Devon
00:43:53 And I again.
00:43:55 I don't know if they were.
00:43:56 Like literally diversity hires and like that's.
Speaker 5
00:43:58 Why they went?
Devon
00:43:58 With them.
00:43:59 But anyway, there's a lot of that.
00:44:01 Kind of dialogue in this scene.
00:44:02 And I I I cut through a lot of it.
00:44:04 Cause just it was ohh.
Speaker
00:44:06 Ship so man, girl.
Speaker 10
00:44:08 My name.
Speaker 4
00:44:10 Chill us out here, OK?
Speaker 10
00:44:12 It's take a crude, overly obvious.
00:44:13 Come on to every woman who walks past and cram it.
00:44:16 That's my name.
Devon
00:44:17 Yeah. Yeah, that's.
00:44:20 Ohh God yeah, can't handle that.
00:44:23 It's like the worst ******* the worst ******* dialogue like.
00:44:27 Yeah, because that's what anyone would say.
Speaker 9
00:44:30 Yanked that.
Speaker 10
00:44:31 Of course, right the stereotype thesaurus.
Speaker
00:44:33 Ohh yeah. Oh.
Speaker 10
00:44:34 Coming Hore and a bench in the.
00:44:35 Same sentence.
Devon
00:44:36 Ohh God. Ah.
Speaker 9
00:44:37 I like them like.
Devon
00:44:41 I thought I cut this out.
00:44:43 Ohh, I'm sorry guys, it's.
00:44:47 I think I think I cut some of.
00:44:48 It out.
00:44:48 It's probably worse than.
00:44:49 This but this is.
00:44:50 Pretty hard to watch.
Speaker 4
00:44:52 Like that.
00:44:52 Let's take this *****.
Devon
00:45:00 I want to point out.
Speaker 5
00:45:03 He sees this.
Devon
00:45:04 Problem on the corner.
00:45:09 And he wants to intervene.
00:45:12 But it's very interesting how he chooses.
00:45:16 To intervene.
Speaker
00:45:20 Oh ****.
00:45:21 When the teacher asks a lesson.
00:45:24 Stop. Go.
Speaker 9
00:45:29 Put your *** over there.

00:45:39 How he Spooks up to.
Speaker 9
00:45:43 But you better get your *** on hunky while I.
00:45:45 Still let you.
Speaker 4
00:45:46 That's what you better do.
Speaker 3
00:45:46 Right, yes.
Speaker
00:45:49 OK. Thank you.
Speaker 3
00:46:01 Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while and you shouldn't have ****** with?
00:46:10 That's me.

Speaker
00:46:15 Of here, man, the bunch of get your ***** out of here before I kick your old, wrinkly white ***.
Speaker 4
00:46:22 What's wrong?
Speaker 7
00:46:26 That's that's fine.
Speaker
00:46:29 ************ crazy.
Devon
00:46:32 See. Meanwhile, in reality land.
00:46:36 He'd be bleeding and on the ground crying.
00:46:40 You know, I guess if you're used to playing ******** in movies and you cast yourself in a movie.
00:46:46 Just go with it I guess.
Speaker 9
00:46:49 The hell.
Speaker 3
00:46:51 Get in the truck.
Speaker 9
00:46:55 Crazy ************ moves wrong with him, man.
Speaker
00:46:58 Put his finger.
Speaker 3
00:47:00 ****. Shut your ******* face.
Devon
00:47:00 Come on now.
00:47:01 Hey, pops, come on now.
Speaker 3
00:47:07 ******* don't listen, do you?
00:47:09 Now get in the truck.
Speaker
00:47:13 With a goal man.
Speaker 3
00:47:15 Shut up, *****.
00:47:18 What's all that, bro **** anyway?
00:47:21 Want to be super spaced or something?
00:47:23 These guys don't want to be your bro and I don't blame them.
00:47:25 Now get your old.
00:47:26 Faith Patty Asss on down the road.
Devon
00:47:32 Now I want to point out again again part of part.
00:47:35 Of that you.
00:47:36 Could say oh that's.
00:47:37 Based he's telling.
00:47:38 The Wigger to stop being a ******* ***** Wigger.
00:47:42 But at the same time.
00:47:45 Who is he really sticking his neck out for in this situation?
00:47:50 Is he helping out?
00:47:53 Another white guy that's in trouble.
00:48:00 He's helping out the immigrant.
00:48:05 He has a soft spot for the immigrant.
00:48:09 Now you could say, Oh well, it's a.
00:48:11 Girl, that's why he's helping her cause.
00:48:14 It's a woman.
00:48:16 And maybe in this situation, maybe you're right.
00:48:20 But as you'll see with the rest of the film.
00:48:25 I see a different pattern.
00:48:29 I see a pattern where he looks at the younger generations of his people.
00:48:35 As parasites that want his stuff.
00:48:39 They're just a bunch of *******.
00:48:41 Good for nothing.
00:48:42 ******* that want his stuff.
00:48:46 But these immigrants?
00:48:49 Ah, they're they're hard working good people.
00:48:55 In a way, as much as he puts up this front where he acts like he hates immigrants and he hates, he's basically a racist.
00:49:03 His actions say it.
00:49:04 A totally different thing.
00:49:07 It almost seems as if he fetishizes the immigrants.
00:49:13 And he hates his own people.
00:49:22 And that's why he saved.
00:49:23 The immigrant girl.
Speaker 3
00:49:25 Take Care now.
Devon
00:49:28 And let the white kid run.
00:49:29 Off, you know then for himself.
Speaker 3
00:49:35 Ohh yeah.
Devon
00:49:37 And again, as much as you know that makes Clint Eastwood look like a ******, that scene, or whatever.
00:49:44 We all know the.
00:49:44 Reality of that.
00:49:47 Some some people would have died in that scenario.
00:49:51 You know like.
00:49:52 We don't know I.
00:49:53 Don't know how many and which.
00:49:54 Ones because it you know it it it would be chaotic.
00:49:58 But people would have died in that scenario.
00:50:02 You don't reason with the kinds of people he just sort of reasoned with, even if it was at the end of the gun, he still reasoned with them.
00:50:09 As we've learned again and again and again, even at the end of the gun, you can't.
Speaker 5
00:50:14 Reason with those people.
Devon
00:50:17 And in today's world, solo would have shot a video of it, and then he'd.
00:50:20 End up in.
Speaker 5
00:50:20 Jail so for saving.
Devon
00:50:24 The Mon girl.
00:50:27 So he talks to the mom.
00:50:29 Girl starts to get him, get get to know her in the truck.
00:50:32 Gives her a ride.
00:50:33 Home finds out that yes, indeed, she is good at math.
00:50:37 And that her?
00:50:38 Her brother Tom.
00:50:40 As trying to.
00:50:41 Stay out of the gang world.
00:50:43 Because the immigrants, the **** community.
00:50:48 They're having this real hard time adapting to America.
00:50:53 And as she says, you know.
00:50:54 The the girls go to college.
00:50:57 And the boys go to jail.
00:51:08 So Next up.
00:51:10 After which thing is this one OK?
00:51:12 So again, this is another.
00:51:15 He keeps noticing.
00:51:18 That as the demographics change.
00:51:22 In the city or in his neighborhood?
00:51:25 The culture is changing.
00:51:26 The the You know the the.
00:51:28 The whole the society he lived in and you know 30 years ago, 40 years ago.
00:51:35 Is gone.
00:51:37 It's completely gone.
00:51:54 And again, he doesn't put together.
00:51:59 There's a lot of noticing.
00:52:02 Of the changes.
00:52:07 But there's not a lot of reflection as.
00:52:09 To well, why?
00:52:10 Why is it?
00:52:11 Is the demographics.
00:52:12 Why they change so much?
00:52:13 Why is it so different now?
00:52:18 Why is the crime so much higher?
00:52:21 Where are all the white people?
00:52:26 There's a lot of noticing that the white people are gone, and as you'll see in future scenes.
00:52:32 And you.
00:52:32 Know it bothers him.
00:52:39 But there doesn't seem to be any kind of.
00:52:42 Accountability, or even thoughtfulness about it.
00:52:47 It's just kind of like an inevitability.
00:52:52 And I would argue that in a way it is.
00:52:59 When you have a, you know generation after generation.
00:53:04 Focused more on stuff.
00:53:08 And dopamine than literally anything else in their lives.
00:53:16 Whether you're talking about him waxing his car.
00:53:20 Obsessed with this car?
00:53:23 Whether you're talking about.
00:53:24 His son who?
00:53:26 Just wants the season tickets.
00:53:30 And and wants to move as we'll we'll see here in a second.
00:53:34 Wants to move his father into a home so that they can take the house.
00:53:42 You know, you know the daughter their.
00:53:44 Daughter, who just wants the car.
00:53:49 All they care.
00:53:50 About is consuming.
00:53:58 At some point along the way, we became a people, a nation of consumers.
00:54:09 Which is inevitable.
00:54:10 I think it's just an inevitability when you have a nation of wage slaves, right?
00:54:14 When with really all you can really measure your success with in a wage slave society is how much.
00:54:21 Stuff did you get?
00:54:27 Like that's it's almost like we're all playing a video game and like, that's how you score it at the end.
00:54:32 Well, how much stuff?
00:54:32 Did you get?
00:54:33 Let's add it all up.
00:54:34 You won.
00:54:36 You're the alpha slave.
00:54:37 You got the most stuff.
00:54:43 Because how else would you measure?
00:54:45 Success when you take out religion.
00:54:49 I mean, not just religion you take out.
00:54:50 Philosophy. I mean ****.
00:54:53 You know, there's not.
00:54:54 It's not that there's no theology, there's no even philosophy.
00:55:02 When you ask people what American culture is, they start rattling off name brands.
00:55:06 They'll say stuff like, well, Nike.
00:55:19 So of course, the way that you measure success.
00:55:25 Is with stuff.
00:55:27 The the whole society is carrot and stick.
00:55:33 You're going to be obsessed with carrots if the entire society is just carrot and stick.
00:55:45 And these other demographics that are featured in this movie.
00:55:50 Who seem to.
00:55:51 Receive a lot of stick from time to time.
00:55:57 A lot of it's because they simply can't compete.
00:56:01 With the carrot obsessed.
00:56:03 White people.
00:56:05 They're being outperformed.
00:56:09 So they end up getting stick.
00:56:18 So in this scene.
00:56:20 It's his birthday.
00:56:22 And his son and his daughter-in-law have come and said, you know, brought him a.
00:56:26 Couple of things.
00:56:27 And one of the things they bring him.
00:56:30 In addition to like an, here's an.
00:56:31 Old people phone.
00:56:32 And he, you know, he gets very insulted that that, you know, he's being treated like an old man.
00:56:38 And then they they give them some pamphlets for some retirement homes.
00:56:43 And again.
00:56:45 He's enraged because he suspects that, oh, they're just trying.
00:56:49 To get rid of me.
00:56:51 So they can get my stuff.
00:56:55 They just want my stuff.
00:56:59 You know, it's like when he was talking on the phone with his son.
00:57:01 What did he say?
00:57:02 Well, your wife.
00:57:02 Already went through your mother's jewelry.
00:57:10 You're just vultures.
00:57:11 You want to get my stuff.
00:57:19 Now think of it something I want.
00:57:21 To I think that explains a lot of this oftentimes.
00:57:27 You'll hear people talk about their fathers or their parents just in general.
00:57:32 And you know.
00:57:33 When when they describe.
00:57:34 In their childhood, you'll you'll.
00:57:36 Hear a line that's very similar to this.
00:57:38 They'll say something like, oh, you know, it could have been worse.
00:57:41 My parents weren't so bad.
00:57:42 They they made sure I had a roof over my head.
00:57:44 And they make sure I didn't go to bed hungry.
00:57:51 It's stuff.
00:57:54 First of all, that's like the bare minimum.
00:57:56 I mean kidnappers put a.
00:57:57 Roof over your head.
00:58:00 Make sure you don't get to go to bed hungry.
00:58:03 So I mean like.
00:58:05 If you're, if you're saying that your child's childhood wasn't so.
00:58:08 Bad because it was equal to prison.
00:58:11 I mean, that's.
00:58:13 You know.
00:58:16 But I've heard people say that about.
00:58:19 Their children, too, like why work so hard so that you could have the things that I couldn't have.
00:58:28 Well, if you're proud of your parenting because you're able to provide more stuff.
00:58:36 Then your parents were able to provide.
00:58:38 Why are you getting angry?
00:58:41 When later on in life.
00:58:43 Your children look to you for more stuff.
00:58:49 Presumably that's what being a good parent is.
00:58:51 All about right?
00:58:52 It's providing stuff.
00:58:55 So why are you confused now that that's.
00:58:59 That your your children see.
00:59:00 You just merely as a resource.
00:59:05 According to you, that's being a.
00:59:07 Good parent.
00:59:10 And so he gets ******.
00:59:11 Off and throws them out of the house.
00:59:15 And while he's sitting on his porch.
00:59:18 Getting drunk by himself.
00:59:20 Because he hates his.
00:59:22 Family because all.
00:59:23 They want is this.
00:59:24 Stuff the the mom girl from next door comes over.
00:59:30 And says hey.
00:59:31 Why don't you come over to our house?
00:59:34 By some crazy coincidence, we're also having a party because apparently we have parties every time you have parties.
00:59:41 And uh, let's see the contrast again.
00:59:43 Like when?
00:59:44 You had the funeral.
00:59:47 And you'll notice.
00:59:51 That we have community.
00:59:53 We might not.
00:59:54 Have all the the the nice stuff.
00:59:57 That you guys have.
00:59:59 But we have community.
01:00:06 And again this.
01:00:06 Is this is what Walt wants, this is what?
01:00:09 He's attracted to.
01:00:13 But there doesn't seem to be any recognition.
01:00:17 That he's a part of the problem.
01:00:23 It just seems to be a blame.
01:00:26 On the younger generations.
01:00:29 How dare they not?
01:00:32 Want to be around him?
01:00:35 He made sure that they had food on the table.
01:00:38 They had a roof over their heads.
01:00:52 Now which part is this?
01:00:53 OK, so then after he gets to know the ***** and there's like this scene where they're just like it's like the ohh look how awesome diversity is the the white guy has moved into the **** Village and finds it finds it fascinating the mom.
01:01:11 Tom's mom comes and says I know Tom tried to steal your car.
01:01:16 And because he tried to steal your car.
01:01:19 And you saved us from the the **** Gang.
01:01:24 **** or TomTom, the **** Tom the ****.
01:01:30 Has to be your slave basically like he has.
01:01:33 He's. I'm going to.
01:01:34 Send him over to your house and for a.
01:01:37 Period of time and and he has.
01:01:39 To do whatever you.
01:01:40 Want him to do?
01:01:43 And so.
01:01:44 Walt has him do stuff around the neighborhood for, you know, because his house.
01:01:49 Is is kept up so he hasn't go around and fix.
01:01:53 Other people's houses, you know, take out tree stumps and.
01:01:59 And hard work and **** like that.
01:02:03 And again you see this.
01:02:06 He gets this respect.
01:02:08 For the immigrants.
01:02:10 That he doesn't have for his own children.
01:02:16 Without, again, without putting together well.
Speaker 5
01:02:20 Who raised those children?
Devon
01:02:27 Those children are a product of you.
01:02:33 So if you think Tom the mung.
01:02:38 Is so so much better than your than your sons.
01:02:44 Who do you have to blame?
01:02:55 But he doesn't put that together, of course.
01:02:59 So in this next scene, once again like.
01:03:02 I said he.
01:03:03 He he starts to feel sick.
01:03:06 And he wants to find out what's wrong with him.
01:03:08 So he goes to the doctor, and he hasn't been.
01:03:10 In a while.
01:03:12 So he doesn't hasn't quite realized the demographic shift.
01:03:18 That's been going on.
01:03:21 In his in his community.
01:03:24 So this is him sitting in the in the doctor's office, realizing.
01:03:30 He's the only white person there.
Speaker
01:03:34 Thank you.
01:03:36 Just the highlight.
01:03:42 Thank you.
01:03:43 Oh, this is a privacy statement.
Speaker 10
01:04:07 Mr. Kowalski.
Speaker
01:04:08 Good morning.
Speaker 8
01:04:10 I looked over your paperwork and I think we should immediately start a full battery of tests.
01:04:15 I feel that this would be the best way to go about.
01:04:18 Out to checking out all the issues that you've had.
Speaker 3
01:04:20 Excuse me.
01:04:22 What happened to Doctor Feldman?
01:04:23 My regular doctor.
Speaker 8
01:04:25 Doctor Feldman retired three years ago on his replacement, Doctor Chu.
Devon
01:04:35 See, he's very unhappy about the demographic shift.
01:04:41 But there's no reflection as to, well, why?
01:04:43 Why did this happen?
01:04:46 It just seems to be this.
01:04:53 He doesn't like the way that the the world is turning.
01:05:02 And because.
01:05:05 It I mean it's just, but it's just.
01:05:07 Something that it is, it just is.
01:05:11 There is no why to it.
01:05:14 It just is.
01:05:18 And in fact, if anything, the movie.
01:05:20 Is is more.
01:05:24 I guess suggestive.
01:05:29 He's the the odd.
01:05:32 Piece in this puzzle.
01:05:36 In this scenario.
01:05:39 What you should be noticing, not that the demographics have shifted dramatically and made him feel like a stranger in his own neighborhood.
01:05:49 Really what you should be doing is thinking, wow, he's kind of a he's.
01:05:53 He's just a bitter.
01:05:54 Old white guy.
Speaker 5
01:05:57 He doesn't seem.
Devon
01:05:57 To be able to handle.
01:06:00 This Asian lady that's now his doctor.
01:06:05 Or the weird whatever that Lady was that couldn't say kolowski.
01:06:16 He's the one.
01:06:19 That doesn't belong.
01:06:22 It's not all these people.
01:06:25 That have arrived.
01:06:28 And made his.
01:06:29 Community their home.
01:06:39 And again because.
01:06:41 He has no community.
01:06:44 Because he has focused so much.
01:06:48 On stuff his son here, living in their.
01:06:53 They're nice mcmansion.
01:06:58 They're very focused on stuff.
01:07:00 His children.
01:07:01 You can see they're both.
01:07:02 On their phones.
01:07:04 They're focused on stuff.
01:07:06 Dopamine entertainment.
01:07:13 But now we're supposed to feel bad for him.
Speaker
01:07:16 Grandpa Walt.
Speaker 8
01:07:17 Pick it.
Speaker
01:07:17 Up you talk time, Mitch.
Speaker 8
01:07:21 Sir, you talked to him.
01:07:23 He's your father.
Speaker 3
01:07:30 Hey, dad.
01:07:32 Mitch, it's, it's me, your dad.
Speaker 2
01:07:36 Yeah, I know. What's up?
Speaker 3
01:07:38 Ohh nothing, nothing much really.
01:07:41 How's everything going?
Devon
01:07:43 I'm fine, fine doing fine.
01:07:47 See now that.
01:07:50 I've been your father for 40 or 50 years.
01:07:54 I've been very cold.
01:07:56 Very obsessed with my stuff.
01:07:58 Very resentful of you wanting my stuff.
01:08:02 Now that I found.
01:08:02 Out I have lung cancer.
01:08:06 You're supposed to magically want to embrace me.
01:08:09 And and have this close.
01:08:11 Relationship out of left field.
01:08:16 And you're kind of *** ****.
01:08:18 Because you're too busy.
01:08:20 Trying to be the alpha slave to get more stuff.
Speaker 3
01:08:25 Cruising Hubbard.
01:08:27 Karen and the kids.
Devon
01:08:30 Sorry and everybody's everybody's great.
Speaker 2
01:08:32 Doing doing fine.
Speaker 3
01:08:36 How about work busy?
01:08:41 Yeah, I suppose.
Speaker 2
01:08:45 Speaking of busy, I got a lot on my plate right now, so if there's not something pressing.
Speaker 3
01:08:53 No, not at all.
Speaker 2
01:08:54 So why don't you call me this weekend?
01:08:58 OK.
01:08:59 It was nice talking to you, Dad.
Speaker 3
01:09:01 For calling. Thanks.
Devon
01:09:09 And so.
01:09:14 That his son, his family.
01:09:15 Doesn't want anything to do with him.
01:09:18 Other than to get his stuff.
Speaker 5
01:09:23 He decides.
Devon
01:09:25 To do what then?
01:09:30 He decides to mentor the immigrants.
01:09:34 All the love and attention, the mentorship, the wisdom.
01:09:39 He neglected to pass on to his.
01:09:46 He now gives.
01:09:48 The immigrant.
01:09:55 He prefers the outsider.
01:09:58 To his own family.
01:10:06 Now, like I said, I saw this movie.
01:10:09 When I was young, with my my family.
01:10:13 And this this whole this.
01:10:15 Part of it always annoyed me.
01:10:17 But I remember.
01:10:18 Walking out of that, I mean, this is how boomer my parents are.
01:10:22 Remember walking out of that theater.
01:10:23 My parents loved this movie.
01:10:25 They loved it.
01:10:26 They especially loved how the the the millennial kids were depicted right like.
01:10:31 They're just these.
01:10:32 These materialistic Gimme, Gimme, Gimme weaklings right?
01:10:38 And look, maybe there's.
01:10:39 Some truth to that, I'm not saying.
01:10:41 That there's not.
01:10:42 But again, just like with Walt here.
01:10:46 There was no self reflection.
01:10:47 There was no well.
01:10:48 Guess who raised those kids?
01:10:52 You think those kids?
01:10:53 Just you know something that I've noticed and I don't know if.
01:10:56 This is I.
01:10:58 Think this has to do with.
01:11:00 Not just Christianity, but maybe just religion in general.
01:11:04 Where because of this belief.
01:11:08 That we are we, we all have like a unique soul, like this belief that most religions not all but most religions have a belief in a pre existence of some sort and a afterlife.
01:11:20 Right.
01:11:22 And because of this belief.
01:11:24 There seems to be a belief among religious people.
01:11:30 Your personality.
01:11:33 And and who?
Speaker 9
01:11:34 You are.
Devon
01:11:36 Has less to do with your parents.
01:11:41 And is more just a product of you being this unique spirit person that existed before you were born and will exist after you die.
01:11:53 And so if you end up being kind of.
01:11:55 A ********.
01:11:58 I feel like a lot of religious people like.
01:12:00 If you have.
01:12:01 A kid. That's a ********.
01:12:04 It's real easy for them to not take any kind, and I'm not saying you're fully responsible for that.
01:12:10 We've talked about before how a lot of behavior you're genetically responsible.
01:12:14 I guess in some ways, like a lot of behavior genetic, it just is.
01:12:19 But whatever is not genetic.
01:12:21 His environment.
01:12:24 So in a way you're 100% responsible because, like you know, it's it's your genes, and you're choosing the person to mix your genes with to.
01:12:32 Make that kid right.
01:12:35 So if you.
01:12:36 Marry a ******** and then you have ******** kids.
01:12:42 You know, in that way you're responsible for it.
01:12:48 But also, if you raise *********.
01:12:51 You're responsible for it, but I feel like there's a lot of religious people.
01:12:55 That because they have this belief that we're all these unique souls, these unique spirit children or whatever you want to call it before we exist here on Earth.
01:13:06 And then we, you know, we're born to a family.
01:13:09 However, that your religion, you know, whatever the the the theology behind you know how that happens is or whatever.
01:13:17 And that we're going to live.
01:13:18 On beyond that, that your by and large, your personality and who you are.
01:13:23 Is kind of independent of.
01:13:26 Well, I mean genetics and environment.
01:13:33 You're just a troubled soul.
01:13:39 I mean it's a.
01:13:39 Very convenient thing for parents to believe in.
01:13:44 Because it really does take the responsibility off of you if you have ******** kids, you can just be.
01:13:49 Like yeah, I don't know sometimes.
01:13:51 You just have ******** kids.
01:13:52 And look I.
01:13:56 You know you.
01:14:00 That's really not true.
01:14:09 As I said, you're you're contributing 50.
01:14:12 Percent of the genes.
01:14:14 And 50% of the environment.
01:14:26 And so.
01:14:29 Well, because he probably believes something similar.
01:14:34 He's decided, you know this Tom the ****.
01:14:36 He ain't so bad.
01:14:39 I'm going to do what I should have done.
01:14:41 With my children but didn't do and so they.
01:14:43 Ended up being stuff obsessed ********.
01:14:48 I'm going to mentor him.
01:14:49 I'm going to show him how to fix stuff and I'm going to be.
01:14:51 Very patient with him.
01:14:52 In ways that he isn't with.
01:14:54 With not only his children, but his grandchildren.
01:14:58 He's very short, very rude, very abrasive with his children and grandchildren, with Tom Demong over here.
01:15:05 He's oh, you know, let me show you how to fix this ceiling fan in your house and let me give you some tools so you can learn to start fixing stuff.
01:15:16 And and I'm.
01:15:17 Going to invite or invite your sister.
01:15:18 Over we're going to have a.
01:15:19 Nice little lunch together.
01:15:22 Even though.
01:15:25 I would never.
01:15:26 Do something like this with my own family.
01:15:30 And I'm going to take you to a construction site because I know that the guy in charge here.
01:15:35 Going to hook you up with.
01:15:36 A job.
01:15:40 I'm going to do whatever I can.
01:15:42 I'm going to spend my remaining years on this earth.
01:15:47 To make sure.
01:15:50 That Tom the morning here.
01:15:55 Can be as successful as possible.
01:15:58 While completely.
01:16:00 Ignoring my family.
01:16:04 And being bitter and angry about their existence.
01:16:09 I'm going to buy you tools.
01:16:10 I'm going to.
01:16:11 Show you how to do work.
01:16:16 You're you're going to become.
01:16:19 My son.
01:16:25 And so spider spider, the **** gang guy.
01:16:30 He doesn't like that, Tom the **** is.
01:16:33 Is acting white.
01:16:37 Then he's got a job, and now he's he's working and making money and hanging out.
01:16:42 With that old white guy.
01:16:46 And so they attack him.
01:16:49 Beat them up.
01:16:56 And Walt finds out and he gets very upset.
01:17:00 Because Tom Demong is now family.
01:17:08 Tom de **** is the family that.
01:17:12 He had.
01:17:13 An abandoned.
01:17:15 This he replaced.
01:17:21 His family's wits on them on.
01:17:32 There's no other word for it.
01:17:39 He has replaced.
01:17:41 His sons.
01:17:44 And grandchildren.
01:17:47 And their future and their needs.
01:17:51 With Tom the **** here.
01:17:58 And again, this is the part where it gets uncharacteristic, like it's just a little unbelievable because he's this.
01:18:03 Frail old man.
01:18:05 Sorry Clint, but you know.
01:18:09 And your acting was good, but you kind of, you know.
01:18:16 And he goes and.
01:18:16 Beats up one of the Mon gangsters.
01:18:21 You know, acting like a lunatic tells them you ******* stay away from Tom the **** or I'm going to come out here and be all boomer crazy on your *** and ******* flip out and.
01:18:32 Fill you full of lead.
01:18:39 Not not realizing.
Speaker 4
01:18:41 What? What will?
Devon
01:18:43 Obviously happened as a result.
01:18:44 Of that.
01:18:46 But again, he's now he's having all kinds of *****.
01:18:51 Over to his house.
01:18:55 He's having a BBQ.
01:18:56 He's doing things again.
01:18:57 That he would never do with his own family.
01:19:10 And part of that is because.
01:19:12 The *****.
01:19:15 Give him something that his family doesn't give him.
01:19:21 And that's a sense of community.
01:19:27 Because the Westerners, the white westerners, they're all individuals.
01:19:33 Right.
01:19:41 This is what individualism leads to.
01:19:44 When taken to its extreme.
01:19:49 It breaks down all communities.
01:19:53 And this desire for stuff.
01:19:56 Becomes very personalized.
01:20:00 It's no longer wanting stuff for my people.
01:20:03 It's no longer wanting stuff for my tribe.
01:20:07 We're all individuals.
01:20:09 We're all these.
01:20:11 Wage slaves with.
01:20:14 QR codes tattooed to our foreheads or I guess now you don't even need that.
01:20:18 Once Amazon gets your biometric data.
01:20:20 So that you.
01:20:21 Can check out of the checkout stand using your palm.
01:20:31 Where all these individual worker units.
01:20:35 With no ring group preference and no ring group.
01:20:43 So really what?
01:20:44 Walt's getting out of this interaction. It's not just some weird perverse.
01:20:48 Love of *****.
01:20:53 He is getting something out of.
01:20:54 This exchange here, he's getting a sense of community.
01:21:03 He's getting a sense that that he belongs to a group.
01:21:10 Now again.
01:21:12 Part of the reason?
01:21:13 Why his his immediate group, his immediate family has.
01:21:17 Kind of rejected him.
01:21:25 The blame is is is, you know.
01:21:29 Kind of resting on his shoulders there.
01:21:38 But that is what he wants.
01:21:41 He wants community.
01:21:44 And they're there to give.
Speaker
01:21:45 It to them.
Devon
01:21:48 Alright, so then of course the the **** Gang.
01:21:55 Because I just realized look at the guy on the right.
01:21:59 He's wearing a mask.
01:22:01 He must be afraid of COVID.
01:22:04 So then, of course, because the.
01:22:08 He'd be up that one Mon gangster.
01:22:12 They go and do a drive by weird thing.
01:22:14 Though they do.
01:22:15 A drive by on Tom, the Monk's house.
01:22:16 They don't shoot at his house.
01:22:18 One part of the movie didn't make sense to me because they're like cousins or something, but whatever.
01:22:25 And turn them on.
01:22:27 Gets shot in.
01:22:27 The neck.
01:22:29 But like not a big deal, just like barreling.
01:22:32 And the house gets.
01:22:33 All blown to ****, but no one really.
01:22:38 Dyes or anything like that.
01:22:44 Tom the monk sister comes home and she's been raped by her own family.
01:22:50 And beat up.
01:22:53 And retribution for.
01:22:56 Well, I guess beating up the the fat **** kid.
01:23:00 Which again a little little Lucy Goosey, but whatever.
01:23:07 So he's he's really ******* ****** *** now.
01:23:13 And again, because he has, he now feels like he does have.
01:23:18 He does have a community.
01:23:20 He feels like he belong.
01:23:21 He finally feels like he belongs to community.
01:23:24 Now it's not his community, it's not his family.
01:23:27 He's rejected.
01:23:27 All of that.
01:23:32 But now that he actually feels like he's.
01:23:34 Part of the community, he feels.
01:23:35 Responsible, he feels like.
01:23:37 He should do something to protect.
01:23:38 It something that he failed to do with.
01:23:40 His actual community.
01:23:43 His entire life.
01:23:44 Now for some reason.
01:23:47 He's very motivated to try to help preserve.
01:23:52 This foreign.
01:23:55 Community. That's.
01:23:57 Entered his society.
01:24:03 And so he thinks it over for a while.
01:24:07 And the the ending is a little.
01:24:10 A little gay, but.
01:24:13 We'll play that here in a second.
01:24:16 Tom Lemon wants revenge, and he's like, you know, you're a soldier in Korea.
01:24:20 You're always pulling guns out on ******* people.
01:24:23 And let's go ham and just go.
01:24:25 Let's go kill them all and and.
01:24:29 Well, it's thinking about it and he kind.
01:24:31 Of wants to do.
01:24:31 That, but he decides in the end.
01:24:35 That the best way to preserve Tom the **** and his and his family is to lock up Tom the **** so he can't do anything crazy and to go take care of the problem himself.
01:24:50 Now, the way that he decides to take care of the problem is again, it's very after school.
01:24:55 Specially it's very unrealistic.
01:24:57 It's something that wouldn't happen, but it's OK.
01:25:00 It's a movie, right?
01:25:01 Like the whatever.
01:25:04 But it is kind of gay.
01:25:07 So he goes to confront.
01:25:10 The spider and his gang, you know, spider of.
01:25:13 The **** gang.
01:25:18 And this is how that goes down.
Speaker 7
01:25:22 OK.
Speaker 3
01:25:27 Eddie Swamp Rats in there.
Speaker
01:25:31 I didn't think your *** would.
Speaker 3
01:25:32 Have came shut up poop.
01:25:35 I got nothing to say to you.
01:25:36 Shrimp ****.
01:25:37 ****** like hell.
01:25:42 Yeah, yeah.
01:25:44 You go ahead.
01:25:45 Watch out for your boyfriend because it was either he or you or someone who raped one of their own family.
01:25:51 Your own blood, for Christ's sake.
01:25:54 And go ahead and pull those pistols.
01:25:56 Like miniature Cowboys, go ahead.
Speaker
01:26:00 So where's Tao at that ***** ****** ******* ****.
Speaker 3
01:26:02 Don't worry about Tau.
01:26:05 Tom's got not one second for you.
Speaker 5
01:26:10 You the **** you gonna do, old man?
Speaker
01:26:18 She's gonna.
01:26:18 Do the podcast the old man.
Speaker 3
01:26:21 Kind of jumpy, aren't we?
01:26:23 Shut the **** **.
01:26:25 You shut the **** **.
01:26:50 I've got a light.
01:26:55 Hail Mary, full of crazy.
Devon
01:27:27 So in the end, and look the imagery, the the Christ imagery is is.
Speaker 2
01:27:33 Very real here.
Devon
01:27:35 And in the end.
01:27:37 He becomes their savior.
01:27:40 He literally dies.
01:27:43 For the *****.
01:27:46 Now again, it's a little hokey.
01:27:48 It's so you might be wondering, in fact, it's so hokey.
01:27:52 It might be like, why did you do that?
01:27:55 That's that's ********.
01:27:57 Well, because in this fantasy world that this movie set in.
01:28:04 Because those the **** gang.
01:28:06 Shot him up.
01:28:08 The cops come and.
01:28:10 And put and and and put them all in jail.
01:28:13 So you see he didn't have to kill the **** people the the cops.
01:28:17 Took care of it.
01:28:19 And now they'll, they'll never be a problem, because the legal system has them.
01:28:26 But you know, whatever.
01:28:27 So Tom Demong shows up in the grand Torino that that you know that Walt wouldn't let his family even touch, but he's been letting Tom Demong borrow.
01:28:40 And you know, he's very distraught and crushed by the fact that Walt has given.
01:28:48 Up his life.
01:28:49 For him and his sister, and at the end.
01:28:54 We are right back.
01:28:55 Where we started.
01:28:58 In the same church.
01:29:01 With a different kind of funeral.
01:29:03 Instead of Walt's wife, it's Walt.
01:29:12 And so it's again, this movie is just showing it's a death.
01:29:17 Of the old ways.
01:29:20 And the birth.
01:29:22 Of the new ways.
01:29:31 Tom demong.
01:29:34 Is the new American.
01:29:38 He and his sister, they're the ones that will inherit this country.
01:29:51 And that's not all, though inherent.
Speaker 4
01:29:58 And I want to leave my house to the church because Dorothy would have liked it.
01:30:05 Now, which brings us to our last item.
01:30:07 And again, please excuse the language in Mr.
01:30:10 Will I'm simply reading it the way?
01:30:12 It was written.
01:30:15 And I'd like to leave my 1972 Gran Torino to.
01:30:25 My friend.
01:30:29 Tell then Lord.
01:30:32 On the condition that you don't chop top the roof like one of those *******.
01:30:36 Don't paint any.
01:30:38 Idiotic flames on it, like some white trash hillbilly.
01:30:41 And don't put a big gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipper heads cars.
01:30:47 It just looks like hell if you can refrain from doing any of that.
01:30:52 It's yours.
Speaker 3
01:30:54 So tenderly.
01:30:57 Your story.
01:31:00 Nothing more or what you've done or will become.
Devon
01:31:01 Tom Demong is the future.
Speaker 3
01:31:08 Standing strong deal with.
Devon
01:31:14 And that's the boomer wet dream.
01:31:20 Used to keep all of his stuff away from.
01:31:22 His children and make sure the immigrants get it.
01:31:35 So like I said, this this movie in in in a lot of ways wasn't self aware.
01:31:43 And while it did have some good critiques, some of them were were unintentional.
01:31:48 Some were intentional.
01:31:50 Some are more unintentional.
01:31:53 But like I said, rather than turn this into some unproductive ***** session about boomers, which it would be very easy to do that.
01:32:00 With this movie, I.
01:32:01 Mean it.
01:32:02 It would be so easy for me to frame it that way because it's kind of that way.
01:32:06 It's kind of that way.
01:32:08 It is kind of like this end scene.
01:32:10 So I mean that says it all.
01:32:11 Like the big the big ending that that my parents coming out.
01:32:15 Of the theater, just like that was the that movie was just.
01:32:18 Yeah, it was so good.
01:32:20 That was amazing.
01:32:22 They loved it.
01:32:23 Because it stuck it to the white millennials and gave it to the hard working immigrants, right?
01:32:33 But let's just talk about it.
01:32:34 Let's let's let's talk about it in terms of.
01:32:45 You know, certainly like I said, the waltz generation in this scenario, I'm not saying.
01:32:51 Across the board in terms of.
01:32:54 Everyone in his generation, but in this scenario.
01:33:00 Walt didn't raise his children.
01:33:02 Walt provided for his children.
01:33:05 That's very different.
01:33:09 A prison provides for the inmates.
01:33:17 What Walt really cared about, what he really loved.
01:33:22 Was a car.
01:33:28 That's what he valued above his children.
01:33:33 In fact, he seemed to have a level of disdain for his children.
01:33:36 He didn't even want, even after he was dead.
01:33:39 He didn't want them to have the car.
01:33:42 He went through.
01:33:43 The trouble of having his will changed.
01:33:54 So that Tom demon.
01:33:58 Would get his car and not his children.
01:34:11 And so like I said it.
01:34:12 Would be real easy.
01:34:13 To just **** all over boomers and the older generations and say.
01:34:19 Why would they romanticize handing over their inheritance?
01:34:27 To foreigners.
01:34:36 This seems insane.
01:34:46 This is societal suicide.
01:34:51 But it wasn't without its reasons.
01:34:59 Because he didn't raise his children.
01:35:05 They kind of turned out to be ********.
01:35:08 Who didn't want anything to do with them?
01:35:11 And then they raised.
01:35:13 Level like they were level 1 ******** and then they raised level 2 ******** who will then raise Level 3 ********.
01:35:30 Because that's what happens in a decadent wage slave society.
01:35:46 When you don't transmit your culture.
01:35:49 When you don't transmit your traditions.
01:35:53 To your children because.
01:35:56 You're out providing for them.
01:36:04 This is what happens.
01:36:06 And look, that wasn't.
01:36:11 This this car of his that he that he wanted that.
01:36:13 He loved so much, right?
01:36:17 He said he bought it in 1970, something.
01:36:21 You know, like probably when he still had those.
01:36:23 Kids at home.
01:36:26 He didn't need that car.
01:36:30 So he wasn't just providing.
01:36:34 For his family, he was out trying to get stuff.
01:36:44 He wasn't at home raising his sons.
01:36:48 Because he wanted more stuff.
01:36:53 And then he shocked when his sons grow up.
01:36:58 Valuing stuff.
01:37:13 And then raise little ********.
Speaker 5
01:37:15 Who just care about stuff?
Devon
01:37:29 So anyway, that's the that's the movie.
01:37:33 And I just think, like I said, I just think that it's it's better for us to really just think about what this says about not not just one generation about every generation.
01:37:46 About this focus on individualism and you know who who ends the game with the most stuff and the.
01:37:53 Most goodies.
Speaker 5
01:37:56 Because this is what this is.
Devon
01:37:57 The society has.
01:38:03 Because that's what happens to things when there's nothing.
Speaker
01:38:06 Holding it, holding them.
Devon
01:38:07 Together they dissolve.
01:38:12 When everyone's out on their own little secret mission to get their own bag of stuff.
01:38:19 With no thought as to anyone else, or certainly not on a group.
01:38:26 This is what's going to happen.
01:38:29 And you will be out.
01:38:31 Numbered and outcompeted.
01:38:34 By groups that work cooperatively.
01:38:43 Just as an example, the the **** family, right?
01:38:48 The monk family.
01:38:50 They had three generations living at that house.
01:38:56 And you know, that's there's an economic reason for that.
01:39:01 But it's also shows you that.
01:39:04 Where the the white family.
01:39:10 The second they could get out, get out of that house with that guy.
01:39:14 They did.
01:39:15 And they went and tried to get.
01:39:16 Their own little Mcmansion, so they could start collecting stuff and putting stuff.
01:39:20 In it, right?
01:39:23 And that's what their children will do.
01:39:25 The exact same thing.
01:39:27 Soon as they can get the **** out of that house, they'll.
Speaker 2
01:39:29 Get out of the house.
Devon
01:39:32 Try to get their own Mcmansion, although because they're.
01:39:35 They're millennials.
01:39:36 They'll probably end up just with a bunch of student debt and living in a in a ****** apartment somewhere.
01:39:40 But they'll fill.
01:39:41 That apartment full of stuff.
01:39:44 And they'll be just as resentful of their parents as that as their parents were.
01:39:50 Of of you.
01:39:50 Know of Walt?
01:40:03 Because each generation.
01:40:05 They're just focused.
01:40:07 On stuff and the millennials.
01:40:08 Will do the same or they?
01:40:10 Won't have children at all.
01:40:13 It will get the the selfishness.
01:40:17 Will reach a high watermark where it just.
01:40:22 Actually, let's not even have kids at all.
01:40:26 I imagine how much more stuff I can get if I.
01:40:28 Don't have to pay for kids.
01:40:40 And that's kind of what we're experiencing now.
01:40:44 There's a lot of.
01:40:45 People like that.
01:40:50 All those memes, all those wine moms?
01:40:53 Or wine ants rather on the Internet that are like, oh, you know, they share those.
01:40:57 Photos here's my mom.
01:40:59 When she was 30 and it's like some woman with a bunch of kids.
01:41:03 And here's me.
01:41:04 And she's, like, dressed like a ****.
01:41:06 And, you know, drinking a bottle of wine.
01:41:10 And they're proud of this.
01:41:16 Because they got more stuff.
01:41:19 They got more dopamine.
01:41:20 They're winning the game.
01:41:25 Right.
01:41:26 If that's how you keep score.
01:41:27 If, if, how you keep score is is how much dopamine you had and and how much stuff you ended up with.
01:41:35 That's how you win.
01:41:45 And Tom Lemon will be the one.
01:41:47 Ending up, you know.
01:41:48 Driving your.
01:41:50 Your grand Torino?
01:41:59 All right, let.
01:42:00 Take a look at jet here.
01:42:06 Excuse me.
01:42:16 Have you ever considered the possibility that claim might Clint might have been trying to warn us with this movie rather than encourage us to behave like?
01:42:23 Walt by showing us.
01:42:25 What happens if we do?
01:42:26 No I.
01:42:27 Mean you.
01:42:27 Have you seen it?
01:42:28 You gotta watch it.
01:42:29 He's obviously ******** on the.
01:42:33 The younger it's it's literally a.
01:42:35 Lot of kids these days kind of moment.
01:42:39 And uh, look, it's kind of it's it's.
01:42:44 It's a lot of it's.
01:42:45 Kind of like the.
01:42:50 The I don't see race, but at the same time I'm based and I can joke because there's a lot of, like racist jokes in the movie and stuff like that.
01:42:59 But it's.
01:42:59 But he's trying as he there's a whole scene where he tries.
01:43:02 To explain it like.
01:43:03 Oh, you know, I don't really hate my Barber because he's Italian, but.
01:43:07 That's just how men talk.
01:43:08 We just, you know.
01:43:09 We make fun of each other.
01:43:11 I call them a whop or whatever.
01:43:12 And you know, he calls me a Pollock.
01:43:14 And you know, that's just how it is.
01:43:16 And so he's trying to Expo.
01:43:18 I mean, the casual racism of his generation.
01:43:23 As you know, it's just.
01:43:26 That's just that's it's all jokes.
01:43:27 It's all jokes.
01:43:28 I don't really see color, you know, and I'll look.
01:43:30 I'll prove it by.
01:43:31 Taking this this **** guy under my under my wing and and adopting them as my family and.
01:43:38 And you're going to.
01:43:39 See, you just got to see.
01:43:40 The way the the kids.
01:43:42 Are portrayed and and it's it's pretty obvious.
01:43:46 What he's doing with it, there's no 4D chess going on with this movie.
01:43:55 I think there is some value to the actual Grand Torino car, but Devin is still right about how well miss valued other things, and now that is all he has left.
01:44:11 I guess is Seinfeld based.
01:44:13 No, of course not.
01:44:16 Seinfeld was like the peak of the 90s Philosemitism.
01:44:23 The 90s were very pro Jewish.
01:44:26 And and Seinfeld and Larry David show.
01:44:30 That's, like, the.
01:44:32 That was like, the the climax.
01:44:35 Of America's.
01:44:38 Love of Jews?
01:44:40 Because it kind of it kind of.
01:44:42 I think, you know, they overdid it.
01:44:46 And now it just seems very jewy.
01:44:53 My dad used to.
01:44:54 Call me a **** *** for wasting my money buying cassettes and CD's. Meanwhile, he had $1200 Panasonic reel to reel and hundreds of albums on RTR that he bought in 1970.
01:45:07 $1200 in today's money is $8100.
01:45:15 Yeah, well, he he liked his stuff more than he liked your stuff.
01:45:20 Thoughts on X-Files? I don't know. I'd have to look back at it. I.
01:45:23 Used to.
01:45:24 When I was a kid.
01:45:25 The thing I find ironic about Clint admiring that Grand Torino car is that for the 1970s, the Grand Torino kind of sucked.
01:45:34 Yeah, I actually hadn't heard of it until this.
01:45:38 Uh this uh?
01:45:42 This movie you said stuff about 9 inch nails.
01:45:47 But what music do you listen to?
01:45:49 If you ever do?
01:45:50 I don't really listen to music, honestly.
01:45:51 I used to do a lot when I was younger, but I I just not have time for it and I'd rather listen to information.
01:46:01 You know, like there's I'm never going to learn.
01:46:04 I'm going to die.
01:46:05 Not having learned even.
01:46:07 Like 1% of what I want to learn.
01:46:11 And so every moment it might sound.
01:46:13 A little weird but like.
01:46:15 Every moment that I'm awake, even when I'm doing.
01:46:18 Stuff right and.
01:46:18 That's something I can't, you know.
01:46:20 I can't split my attention, but if I'm working on something around the pillbox I'm listening to.
01:46:27 You know, a podcast or a an instructional video or audiobook or something.
01:46:33 You know, I'm.
01:46:34 I'm always.
01:46:35 I'm always taking an information almost always.
01:46:40 And music just seems like a.
01:46:44 Kind of like a waste. It's like a luxury. I can't afford. That said, I mean, I I still like music. I think music's still good. I just.
01:46:54 I don't really.
01:46:55 I don't really listen to anymore.
01:46:58 UM.
01:47:03 Uncle Stack, can you please make 2 Telegram announcements before your streams one right before you start another, maybe an hour or two ahead of time.
01:47:12 No, I don't.
01:47:15 I don't.
01:47:15 I don't.
01:47:16 I don't have time for that.
01:47:17 Just no.
01:47:17 Just know, you know, roughly.
01:47:19 You know the days and you know roughly about when I'm going to do it and.
01:47:23 I've been, I've.
01:47:24 Been more consistent about the timing on it?
01:47:29 Are you planning on doing a stream on a based movie?
01:47:34 If so, which one?
01:47:37 Uh, I I don't know.
01:47:39 I don't.
01:47:39 I have to think of based move.
01:47:43 I kind of want to say it's a wonderful life.
01:47:45 It's kind of based because it's like anti bank and some other ****, but I'd have to rewatch it.
01:47:52 Just like Easy Rider, Gran Torino also is in many ways peak ******* boomer.
01:47:58 They really did ******* blow it.
01:48:00 They blew it all to hell.
01:48:01 That car is a metaphor for the America that the boomers refused to let their children inherit and sold it down the line for a quick buck.
01:48:09 Yeah, I mean, like, it's it's like I said.
01:48:12 Real easy to look at.
01:48:13 This movie that way real easy to look at that movie this.
01:48:16 Way, but I just want I I just want.
Speaker 2
01:48:20 I don't I.
Devon
01:48:20 Don't want to just sit here and ****?
01:48:22 On boomers, it's that I.
01:48:23 Feel like that's too easy.
01:48:25 I want you to just really look at maybe the validity that some of the critiques have, you know, of the of the other generations, the next generations.
01:48:35 Now look, we can place blame as to why those generations are the way they are, or they can just evaluate.
01:48:45 What I think is more productive, what can we learn by by examining how they are the way they are?
01:48:53 Not like who's to blame for it, but just like, OK, yeah, people in America and just in the West and large at large, they are just ******* overly concerned about stuff.
01:49:04 And a lot of them.
01:49:05 Don't really give a **** about their.
01:49:07 And again we can.
01:49:10 You know, there's.
01:49:11 Different reasons for different people.
01:49:12 We can lay blame all we want, but.
01:49:15 A lot of people.
01:49:15 Don't they do get?
01:49:17 I mean, look.
01:49:17 I got.
01:49:18 The ******* second I could get them.
01:49:20 In fact, I was out.
01:49:21 Of the house before I was 18.
01:49:23 I had.
01:49:23 I was full on out of the House.
01:49:26 Living alone.
01:49:28 And like the second I could, I got a job the second I was legal to.
01:49:33 In fact, I got a working permit before I was 16, so I could work when I was like 15.
01:49:40 And because I I I just wanted to have I wanted.
01:49:43 To be independent as quickly as possible.
01:49:50 In many ways, that's.
01:49:53 My experience was that, you know my parents, my certainly.
01:49:56 My dad, I.
01:49:57 Mean he they made sure I didn't starve.
01:49:59 They made sure the roof over my head but.
01:50:00 Like that was the extent of it in a lot of ways.
01:50:03 I feel like that's that's what they thought that was required.
01:50:07 And so I just was like, well, OK, well, I can.
01:50:11 I can provide that if that's all you're, if that's all you're bringing to the table, is a roof over my head and food on the table.
01:50:19 I can do that and that's what I did.
01:50:21 I got out of the house and I did that instantly.
01:50:24 Parents are irrelevant.
01:50:28 Like if if that's all you're really.
01:50:30 If that's the only value that you're adding.
01:50:34 You can be replaced.
01:50:36 By a wage slave job.
01:50:41 And I I think the look the the system wants that.
01:50:48 Because if you if you're close with your family.
01:50:52 If you have that community and look, some people are, there's a lot of.
01:50:56 People that had a totally different dynamic going on.
01:50:59 But it makes it makes you way less dependent.
01:51:03 On the government and on the corporations.
01:51:07 If you actually have parents like, OK, just as an example, if you just want.
01:51:12 To look at it in terms of.
01:51:14 Of just the financial stuff, if you have parents that are.
01:51:17 Going to loan?
01:51:18 You money.
01:51:19 You don't have to go to banks.
01:51:21 You know, if you have parents that are going to, you know, let you live at their.
01:51:25 House for a while while you.
01:51:26 While you save up money, you know you.
01:51:28 Don't have to pay a landlord.
01:51:30 If you have parents that are going to, you know, leave you an inheritance, you know, and that's let's say, that's a generational practice.
01:51:37 So they got an inheritance too, and your children got ahead.
01:51:40 You know, like that.
01:51:42 And it's something that you plan people used to plan that and some people still.
01:51:45 Do plan that.
01:51:48 You know I need to make sure I'm leaving.
01:51:50 Leaving this earth with, you know, giving my children something.
01:51:57 Because that's going to help my bloodline.
01:52:00 I don't think a lot of especially middle class.
01:52:07 Boomers and beyond give a **** about that.
01:52:15 My parents even told me.
01:52:17 Like on a regular.
01:52:18 I don't know why.
01:52:20 I remember distinctly several times as a kid and thinking.
Speaker 5
01:52:23 It was weird.
Devon
01:52:24 Like how they.
01:52:24 Would they would tell us all the time.
01:52:26 Like all the time, I hope you're not thinking of.
01:52:29 Your inheritance because because you're not.
Speaker 5
01:52:32 Like they were just like.
Devon
01:52:34 Anytime something like like in a movie, there's inheritance or any like anytime that came up my mom would like tell us that.
01:52:44 And I and I and I just want to thank you.
01:52:45 Like, OK.
01:52:49 But this was this was like a.
01:52:52 This is like a thing that like a, a thing that didn't just end with them either.
01:52:58 I don't think there's a whole lot of Gen.
01:53:00 Xers that are.
01:53:03 Focused on leaving their children.
01:53:06 An an inheritance for millennials or you know anything?
Speaker 5
01:53:14 That doesn't seem to figure in.
Devon
01:53:16 To because if, why would it if you're?
01:53:18 Literally just an individual.
01:53:22 And if.
01:53:24 Your responsibility.
01:53:27 To your children.
01:53:28 Who are kind of an obstacle to you getting more stuff and you fulfilling your own selfish desires.
01:53:37 If your responsibility to them ends at 18.
01:53:42 And then you're financially off.
Speaker 2
01:53:43 The hook or whatever.
Devon
01:53:45 Uh, you're going to get right back to uh.
01:53:49 Like if.
01:53:49 That's how you're viewing it.
01:53:51 You're going to go right back to trying to get more stuff and look.
01:53:54 You see that with.
01:53:54 A lot of these boomers, right?
01:53:57 And not again.
01:53:57 And it's not just movers.
01:53:58 I'm just saying them.
01:53:59 Because they're the ones right now.
01:54:02 Where what happens?
01:54:05 You know, their kids get out of the house.
01:54:08 They start spending their money.
01:54:09 On more toys.
01:54:19 And you know, you could say.
01:54:20 Well, what's wrong with?
01:54:20 That I'm not.
01:54:21 I'm not saying necessarily.
01:54:22 There is.
01:54:22 I'm just pointing that out.
01:54:25 There isn't like a a focus on increasing the wealth of your bloodline.
01:54:35 There doesn't seem.
01:54:35 To be a focus on.
01:54:37 Trying to gradually increase the the wealth and power of your descendants.
01:54:52 That doesn't seem.
01:54:52 To be like a thing that even occurs.
01:54:56 To again, not just boomers to just.
01:55:00 Most middle class people in.
01:55:02 The West just don't think about that.
01:55:10 This movie makes me think about your die hard review when John McClain sacrifices himself.
01:55:15 To the Federal Reserve, Clint kills himself for the goods.
01:55:19 Today was one of the best strains I will try to show this strain to my.
01:55:25 Dad love it.
01:55:26 Yeah, well, you know.
01:55:29 And by the way, sensors out there.
01:55:32 Clint Eastwood says good about 1000.
01:55:34 Times in this movie.
01:55:36 So uh.
01:55:40 Yeah, it it's it's uh.
01:55:44 Like I said, it's real easy to paint it.
01:55:47 As just you know, a disdain.
01:55:51 For the younger generation, looking at them as, like I said, ironically as oh, all they care about it.
01:55:58 My stuff as he grabs his stuff jealously.
01:56:01 You know what I mean?
01:56:01 It's like they're it's like it almost.
01:56:03 Makes them look like they're like Gollum my.
Speaker 5
01:56:05 Precious no, he just wants my precious.
01:56:09 Like it's where they're so obsessed with their stuff.
Devon
01:56:13 They don't want to let it.
01:56:14 But then like I said.
01:56:16 Then now that he once he finds out.
Speaker 5
01:56:18 He's going to.
Devon
01:56:19 He's so quick to just give it to these strangers.
01:56:23 And ultimately, it's because he got what he didn't really deserve and that was.
01:56:33 And respect he didn't deserve respect.
01:56:38 He was a bitter, angry.
01:56:40 Awful person as far as.
01:56:43 The movie showed.
01:56:46 And yeah, he he did have ship back, kit, ******* kids and ******* grandkids.
01:56:50 But again.
01:56:52 I wonder why?
01:56:59 Let's take a look here.
01:57:04 The funny thing is, the boomers will all be leaving their toys behind once they return.
01:57:11 To the earth.
01:57:12 Yeah, you can't take it with you.
01:57:14 Eastwood isn't a boomer.
01:57:16 He's silent generation.
01:57:18 They created the boomers.
01:57:20 They're the prototype boomers.
01:57:22 They have done as much and probably more than the boomers to **** everyone, and most of them benefited from the same.
01:57:28 Stuff the boomers did.
01:57:29 Yeah, I mean that's.
01:57:31 What I was saying like I.
01:57:32 Think and you're right.
01:57:34 But like.
01:57:35 Usually when people think today when they think boomers, they have this pretty wide range of people they're talking about, they they pretty much mean everyone.
01:57:45 I mean, really, they're they're saying, like almost everyone over 40 at this point.
01:57:48 They called boomers, but.
01:57:52 But yeah.
01:57:59 Let's see here.
01:58:01 My dad just plays solitaire on his Galaxy S4 and talks to everyone like they're a ***** ** ****.
01:58:08 If I talk back, he says, I build you out of jail.
01:58:11 That time you got arrested for embezzlement.
01:58:14 I don't even care that you were acquitted.
01:58:17 That sounds interesting.
01:58:21 Did you ever fix your truck rear end noise?
01:58:23 If you didn't record the stream?
01:58:27 Rear end of the truck.
01:58:28 I'll fix it for you.
01:58:29 Actually, I kind of know what?
01:58:31 It is now, it's.
01:58:35 I'm going to forget the terms for stuff because I don't.
01:58:37 I'm not familiar with, but I know what it is.
01:58:39 There's like this.
01:58:41 The drive the drive. What is it called? The drive shaft or whatever. There's like one of EU joints is kind of ****** **.
01:58:50 But there's also like this between the transmission and the rear axle, whatever that thing is, it goes through like a a metal loop.
01:59:02 That holds it to the bottom of the truck.
01:59:05 And they're supposed to be.
01:59:08 A bushing.
01:59:10 That that goes between the that thing and the and the ring and that's gone.
01:59:18 So what I'm hearing is that shaft or I, I know I'm saying the wrong words but doesn't matter.
01:59:25 You get what I'm talking about.
01:59:26 If you know cards that that.
01:59:27 Thing that's going to the real.
01:59:30 The rear axle is occasionally rumbling up against that metal ring.
01:59:36 It's not the end of the world, but it is something to fix, but it's not like urgent like I'm going to die if I don't fix it like, right?
01:59:42 But it does have to get fixed pretty soon.
01:59:45 I just don't drive that much, so it's not a.
01:59:46 It's not super urgent, but.
01:59:48 EU joint thing is maybe.
01:59:50 A little more urgent.
01:59:52 And so I'm going to have.
01:59:54 To take all that apart and I I got a haze manual for it.
01:59:58 I got to. I'll probably have to take it out. Take it to a shop and get part of the like this pin pressed out of EU.
02:00:06 Point thing and.
02:00:08 So I'll I'll fix it it.
02:00:10 Again, I know I'm using all the wrong.
02:00:11 Words, but that's OK.
02:00:13 I'm a mechanical guy.
02:00:14 I can.
02:00:15 I don't need to know what.
02:00:16 They're called.
02:00:16 I can I know how machines work enough to where I.
02:00:20 Order the parts and whatever, but that's that's what the that's what the noise is.
02:00:24 Also, to make it even more interesting.
02:00:29 Is the there's a bushing in the front with my steering.
02:00:36 And I don't know what that what that piece is called, but one of the arms that actually moves the the wheel from side to side.
02:00:44 Is gone, so that's why my steering is all kind of.
02:00:47 Crazy. Excuse me.
02:00:52 Jeremiah Johnson is the most base movie I.
02:00:54 Can think of have I seen it?
02:00:56 No, I have not seen it.
02:00:57 Jeremiah Johnson.
02:00:58 That's name of a movie.
02:01:01 I'll make a note here.
02:01:06 Jeremiah Johnson.
02:01:19 OK.
02:01:22 As much as you don't want to hate, want us to hate boomers and I don't hate them, but someone has to foot the.
02:01:28 Bill and they'd.
02:01:29 Rather, their children and grandchildren pay it, then even admit we kind of ****** **.
02:01:34 Sorry if you mentioned Jews in front of them, they're OS acts up so much. They're the original MPC's. They do freak out if you mentioned.
02:01:43 But like I said, one of the reasons.
02:01:44 That is, is their dads one of their points of pride.
02:01:51 So you're attacking their ego.
02:01:53 And you're attacking their.
02:01:54 Their dads, because their dads went.
02:01:56 And fought the Nazi.
02:01:57 You know what I mean?
02:01:57 It's part of that whole mythology of their dads.
02:02:01 And so if you kind of if.
02:02:03 You're you're undermining.
02:02:05 The image they have of their parents and and.
02:02:12 You're also going against.
02:02:14 God knows how many years of.
02:02:16 A ******* programming.
02:02:18 You know what I mean?
02:02:18 So it's.
02:02:20 Their their hardware is not compatible, most of them their hardware is not.
02:02:24 Compatible with with.
02:02:26 Any operating system that involves the JQ?
02:02:38 World War 2 ****** us.
02:02:39 Hard, didn't it?
02:02:40 Yes, it did.
02:02:43 Yes it did.
02:02:46 We're still waiting for Sada music review.
02:02:48 Oh, yeah.
02:02:48 Well, like I said, I'm going.
02:02:49 To talk to a Catholic about that one.
02:02:52 Because there's some Catholic **** in there.
02:02:55 Have I seen triumph of the will seen?
02:02:57 It I own it.
02:02:59 Yeah, I've seen it.
02:03:00 It's pretty good propaganda, especially given the time.
02:03:04 Even now.
02:03:04 I guess the imagery is really impressive, but I mean, it wouldn't have obviously wouldn't have the same effect, but it's it's good to study just because.
02:03:13 It shows you I mean.
02:03:16 That kind of rudimentary by today's standards, propaganda was very powerful and very influential.
02:03:25 And I.
02:03:25 Hope that.
02:03:26 Helps you appreciate.
02:03:32 How powerful today's propaganda is, and now you can say, well, today's viewer is more sophisticated and has a better handle on, you know, when they're being propagandized too.
02:03:44 And this sort of thing.
02:03:45 And that's true, but.
02:03:48 They're more sophisticated in their propaganda.
Speaker 5
02:03:52 You ever seen?
Devon
02:03:53 The movie equals from 2015, despite the title, it's pretty based and relevant in regards to the great reset and stuff I have not. I'll add that to.
02:04:04 My list.
02:04:04 I don't think I.
02:04:05 Have it.
02:04:06 You guys are naming movies that I've never even heard of, which is unusual.
02:04:10 You said 2015, though. Let.
02:04:12 Just double check it.
02:04:13 I don't.
02:04:13 Think I have it.
Speaker
02:04:17 2015.
Speaker 3
02:04:23 I do not have it.
Devon
02:04:26 Imagine what our countries would look like today if.
02:04:29 Germans had won the war.
02:04:32 Well, just yeah.
02:04:33 Like I said, if America just stayed out.
02:04:35 Of it, it would have been different.
02:04:40 The movie Titanic is also very cocked because it refuses to mention JP Morgan and the three guys who were against the founding.
02:04:48 Of the Fed.
02:04:49 Interesting how the most subversive parts of history have been made into me as a seller.
02:04:53 That's not even the worst part.
02:04:55 Honestly, the the type.
02:04:56 I mean, that's big, but like most people are.
02:04:58 Just too dumb to.
02:04:59 For them to understand why that's even a thing, the thing that they're not too dumb to understand, that was really in your face and.
02:05:08 Subversive and degenerate was the fact that.
02:05:11 The movie shows this old woman.
02:05:14 Who is still pining for some guy that she hung out with on a boat for like a few days, even though she married some other guy and had children with him and spent you know, what, 50-60 years maybe, I don't know how old she must be, old as **** you.
02:05:33 Know right? So like.
02:05:35 Decades and decades and decades.
02:05:37 Of her life she spends with this guy.
02:05:40 And then when she finally dies at the end.
02:05:44 Who is it?
02:05:45 Who's there to like, meet?
02:05:46 Her in heaven.
02:05:48 The guy she ****** for, like a couple of times on a boat for a few days.
02:05:53 Not the guy that she had a family with.
02:05:56 Not the guy that she raised children with.
02:06:00 Now the whole time. Apparently she was just daydreaming about Leonardo DiCaprio for ******* 6050. You know, ******* years.
02:06:13 The whole time, her husband having no idea.
02:06:16 So she the the movie is literally about her cooking.
02:06:21 Mentally, financially and emotionally cucking some guy for.
02:06:26 60 years.
02:06:32 Eastwood's ex Jew wife Francis Fisher played Kate Winslet's mother. You guys must.
02:06:38 Be talk about something.
02:06:46 Are you going to do a string about Africa?
02:06:48 Oh, I still haven't watched that.
02:06:52 Still haven't watched that?
02:06:54 Who's going to *****?
02:06:55 She killed him too.
02:06:56 Let the poor guy down drown.
02:06:58 Oh, yeah, that's really weird thing.
02:07:01 There was no reason for.
02:07:02 Him to drown.
02:07:04 You should review Black Panther.
02:07:06 Ugh, I've I've managed them.
02:07:08 I can't watch it.
02:07:08 I can't.
02:07:13 I've started to watch it.
02:07:14 A couple times and I can't.
02:07:16 I just can't.
02:07:17 I can't.
02:07:18 I just can't.
02:07:20 What do I think of?
02:07:21 There will be blood like it.
02:07:23 I do like it.
02:07:25 I don't want to say it's based, but I.
02:07:27 Do like it.
02:07:28 I like the.
02:07:32 I like it.
02:07:34 I like the.
02:07:35 The character Daniel Plainview or Plainfield I forget which.
02:07:40 I like his.
02:07:45 Single minded.
02:07:52 And I'd like the.
02:07:55 The contrast between him and the.
02:08:00 Was it Jacob?
02:08:02 Or I forget the name of the, you know, the the preacher guy.
02:08:05 I forget the name of the guy.
02:08:07 UM.
02:08:09 No, I like it.
02:08:10 I mean, he's not a.
02:08:10 Good guy. He's a.
02:08:11 ****** ******* guy.
02:08:13 Right.
02:08:13 Terrible ******* person and he becomes consumed by his single minded.
02:08:20 You know.
02:08:22 Passion is not the right word.
02:08:25 I don't know his.
02:08:27 You know his, you know, I I.
02:08:29 Want no one else to succeed?
02:08:31 You know, like he he gets angry.
02:08:32 It's not that he wants to.
02:08:34 It's not that.
02:08:35 You know, I've got a competition in.
02:08:37 You know I want no one else.
02:08:38 To succeed.
02:08:39 It's not that he wants to succeed and he doesn't want anyone else to succeed, and so it's not that like he's a good person.
02:08:47 But I find it fascinating.
02:08:49 And his uh.
02:08:53 Lust, I guess, for his lust for power and for control.
02:08:58 Is fascinating to me.
02:09:01 But is it a based movie? I don't know. I don't know that it has like a good message. I just think it's fascinating. And I think the soundtrack's good. And I think the cinematography is great.
02:09:12 But I don't know.
02:09:13 That I'd call it based, you know, it's what's weird about it is it's rated R and.
02:09:21 I I don't know why because there's.
02:09:25 There is violence.
02:09:26 In it, but they don't show it.
02:09:27 Most of the time, there's no nudity.
02:09:31 It's just that I think his character is so.
02:09:37 I don't want to say shocking, but so.
02:09:41 Uh, yeah.
02:09:42 I don't know.
02:09:44 That they gave it in our rating because the violence in it is pretty low key.
02:09:49 I mean, he shoots that one guy, you know, his fake brother, but it's off camera.
02:09:54 You don't see.
02:09:54 It and he beats up the the preacher guy with.
02:09:59 The bowling pin.
02:09:59 But again, it's off camera.
02:10:01 You don't see it.
02:10:03 And that's it.
02:10:03 Like you know, the way you know.
02:10:04 Beats up.
02:10:05 That's Eli.
02:10:06 That's his name.
02:10:07 He beats up Eli in the.
02:10:08 In the mud.
02:10:11 But you know, that was like pretty low key but.
02:10:14 It's rated R.
02:10:16 And there's no there's no swearing.
02:10:19 At all.
02:10:20 Like they don't say **** or ****.
02:10:21 Or anything so it's.
02:10:24 I think I like it because it's just the.
02:10:27 You know, like I said, the intensity of starts that they gave it in our rating.
02:10:29 Really for no reason.
02:10:35 Just look how they portrayed the Christians.
02:10:37 They're just anti white, who portrays the Christians.
02:10:45 What are you talking about?
02:10:48 And talk about the movie.
02:10:49 How they portray the Christians.
02:10:53 You like him?
02:10:54 There will be blood.
02:10:55 No, because they're not portraying.
02:10:59 Christians like that, they're portraying charlatans like that.
02:11:04 Mean that there?
02:11:05 Were a lot of these charlatan preachers, and there there still is.
02:11:09 That's OK.
02:11:10 You can critique.
02:11:11 I'm OK with people critiquing.
02:11:21 Yeah, I don't think that was a critique of Christianity so much as it was.
02:11:24 A critique of.
02:11:26 False prophets at the end.
02:11:28 That's what you know.
02:11:29 That's what he makes.
02:11:29 Him admit that he.
02:11:31 Is, you know, God is a superstition.
02:11:34 I am a false prophet.
02:11:36 And he shows that the guy doesn't.
02:11:38 Have any?
02:11:38 Faith, because he's willing to say these things to what he thinks you know, he thinks he's going to get money if he just says it.
02:11:46 So he he he fails.
02:11:48 The faith test.
02:11:51 And and so he he basically proves that he's.
02:11:55 A charlatan at.
02:11:56 The end.
02:11:57 And like I said, I'm OK with.
02:11:58 I'm way OK with film critiquing people like that thing.
02:12:03 It's like the televangelist that we we this country, especially America, has always been plagued by these.
02:12:13 Wolves and sheep's clothing. You know these.
02:12:18 Awful often Zionist.
02:12:23 Who bleed their flock dry.
02:12:27 And they do it for all the wrong reasons.
02:12:30 And I think that Ellie's character was was just representing that, you know exactly that someone that that swooped in took advantage of all the old ladies. You know, that wanted to believe that.
02:12:43 That there was an afterlife and that, you know Eli was.
02:12:48 You know something special or whatever, and they were willing to give him.
02:12:52 All the money they had and and uh.
02:12:57 Yeah, there's just a lot of.
02:12:57 People and there were back then too.
02:13:03 Joel Olstein someone said.
02:13:04 Yeah, exactly the same exact same kind of person.
02:13:10 And I.
02:13:10 And I think that that's.
02:13:13 I think that's a totally legit critique.
02:13:17 Thoughts on Oblivion movie with Tom Cruise?
02:13:21 I feel like I've.
02:13:21 Seen that.
02:13:24 But it is.
02:13:25 I don't know if I've seen it.
02:13:27 I can't.
02:13:28 Put it in my head.
02:13:30 Oblivion let me want to look Oblivion movie with Tom Cruise.
02:13:35 If it was super reason I haven't seen it, I haven't seen any very new movies.
02:13:40 Uh Bolivian?
02:13:47 You guys tired of looking at Tom the monk?
02:13:50 2013.
02:13:51 Oh, you know what?
02:13:52 I've seen this.
02:13:55 I'd have to rewatch it.
02:13:56 I vaguely.
02:13:58 I know it has to do with, like, time travel.
02:14:00 It's got, like, some weird.
02:14:02 Time traveling things going on do.
02:14:04 It with it but.
02:14:06 That's all I remember.
02:14:08 It was so long ago, and I think I was high as a kite when I saw it.
02:14:11 Just being honest, I think I was.
02:14:13 I got.
02:14:13 Really baked and watched that at the theater or something like that?
02:14:17 So I'd have to rewatch that.
02:14:31 Black preachers are carrying out religious revivals on the site where George Floyd or you want to say something about the you want.
02:14:41 You know, if we want to get rid of Tom.
02:14:44 And also show you guys.
02:14:47 Or the disclaimer.
02:14:49 Show you guys what's going on at the.
02:14:53 At the the place where George Floyd overdosed.
02:15:00 The prolific **** actor and.
02:15:07 Pregnant woman gun pointer at her.
02:15:13 Look at this now, if you guys can.
02:15:15 Read it.
02:15:15 So we'll go through it.
02:15:18 Welcome to George Floyd Square, a sacred space for community, public grief and protest.
02:15:28 This is where George Floyd.
Speaker 8
02:15:31 Took his.
Devon
02:15:31 Last breath.
02:15:33 Ah, under the knee of a Minneapolis police officer.
02:15:41 While high on Scranton, al.
02:15:45 Under the watch of three other officers enter with reverence, humility and openness as an invited guest.
02:15:56 Care for each other by wearing a mask and asking others to wear a mask.
02:16:03 Honor this space as a place to connect and grieve as caring humans.
02:16:11 And just as you're thinking, oh, humans.
02:16:12 So you're not.
02:16:13 You don't see race at the bottom for white people in particular.
02:16:18 You have special instructions for white people.
02:16:22 Descent to yourself and come to listen.
02:16:26 Mourn and witness.
02:16:27 Remember, you are here to support, not to be supported.
02:16:32 Be mindful of whether your volume, pace and movements are supporting or undermining your efforts to decenter yourself.
02:16:41 I don't know what the **** that even means.
02:16:45 Really, actually, is that black people trying to say that white people are too loud in?
02:16:52 Places that you're supposed to be quiet.
Speaker 5
02:16:57 Is that really what that sign is saying?
Devon
02:17:04 Is that really what saying cause that is?
02:17:07 That's some funny ****, if that's what it's saying, seek to contribute to the energy of the space rather than drain it.
02:17:16 Why is this specific to white people?
02:17:19 Bring your own processing to the other white folks, so you will not harm by pack.
02:17:29 What the?
02:17:29 ****'* buy. Pack. What's the buy part?
02:17:33 I've heard Bipac, but I don't know what.
02:17:35 The buy part is.
02:17:38 Let's buy you guys know the BI part.
02:17:45 It's not biracial, is it, biracial?
02:17:50 What's I I know what the POC is.
02:17:52 But what's the BI?
02:17:55 Is it black and digital indigenous?
02:17:58 Is it really?
02:18:02 Uh ******* bipacks, huh?
02:18:05 ******* bipacks.
02:18:08 I'm going to start that.
02:18:09 Sounds like an insult.
02:18:10 I'm going to be.
02:18:11 Like you ******* bye POC.
02:18:13 Buy podcasts, ************.
02:18:16 Alright, that just sounds ********.
02:18:18 Consider if you want.
02:18:20 I mean, who would?
02:18:21 Want to be called?
02:18:21 A bipod just stuck on this.
02:18:24 I almost want to get like I want to make T-shirts that.
02:18:27 Just say ******* buy packs.
02:18:31 Consider if you want or need to take photos and post them.
02:18:36 Do not take photos of other people without their consent.
Speaker 3
02:18:40 Why is that specific to white people?
Devon
02:18:43 If you witness white folks doing problematic things, speak up with compassion to their take or to take the burden off of black folks and our siblings of color our see.
02:18:59 It really is.
02:18:59 Look, it really is everyone versus white people.
02:19:04 You can see it in their language.
02:19:06 You can see it everywhere.
02:19:09 They formally think it think of it as a struggle of everyone versus you.
02:19:17 Seek to engage rather than escalate so that it can be a learning moment rather than a disruption.
02:19:23 Yes, cause again, it's white people always going around disrupting public places and places where.
02:19:31 You are supposed to be quiet.
02:19:33 That's that condescension is kind of funny, but you're going.
Speaker 5
02:19:37 To see more.
Devon
02:19:37 Of it, you're going to see more of it.
02:19:39 You see? Payback's a *****. Hate to say.
02:19:42 It, But that's what it's going to be, all the condescension that white people have.
02:19:48 Directed towards bipacks.
02:19:51 For the last 50-60 years.
02:19:54 And and look in a way that I I understand it, I get it.
02:19:58 I mean, come on, it's kind of hard to not be condescending if you look at the disparities and really everything you can measure.
02:20:04 Right.
02:20:05 And but that same, that same condescension, now that the power is going to be elsewhere, is going to be.
02:20:15 Used against you.
02:20:17 Now the the good thing is, I mean that's that's if that's if things turn out OK, that's if they they decide to to let you keep living.
02:20:28 You get the the condescension thing.
02:20:30 That's the that's the the, the least bad scenario.
02:20:35 And the best part about the condescension too, if that's the route that they're going.
02:20:38 To take I.
02:20:39 Don't think so, is that it also comes with a.
02:20:44 A healthy dose of underestimating.
02:20:47 And which is what happened to white people?
02:20:49 Right?
02:20:50 White people underestimated the bipac.
02:20:54 I mean, not really the bipac.
02:20:56 Themselves, but what the buy parks can do when helped with the tribe, with the tribes help and their money and direction by parks can be a.
02:21:08 Quite a force to be reckoned with.
02:21:13 With the help, with a little help from.
02:21:16 Their friend, the tribe.
02:21:21 So yeah, that's that's the new.
02:21:24 That's the new George Floyd.
02:21:25 There's something else.
02:21:26 I want to show you guys.
02:21:31 Yeah, maybe maybe this guy should have had some lessons in behavior, huh?
02:21:42 Yeah, because.
02:21:44 You know, white people are the ones.
02:21:45 That that need to be told how to behave, huh?
02:21:51 Let's look this story up here.
02:22:16 Here we go.
02:22:23 Here's the story. Babysitter, 24 killed one year old boy with wrestling moves after becoming angry over a torn pillow, but told cops I didn't hurt his head. I only caused the internal injuries.
02:22:39 Marvin Rex Lake has been charged with capital murder following the death of Aaron Joshua D Hart, who suffered multiple injuries including a fractured skull.
02:22:52 Police say lake of El Paso, TX, said he did not know how the boy was injured, but later he admitted to carrying out the wrestling moves and putting him in a football hold after getting upset that the heart had ripped a pillow, cops say.
02:23:09 Lake is said to have admitted anger issues, saying he did not know his strength.
02:23:15 The victim and two other children were being watched by Lake on April 13th while their moms worked.
02:23:23 The other children also suffered injuries.
02:23:30 See, this is first of all, this is what happens, ladies.
02:23:36 When you when you're working instead of at home.
02:23:38 Watching your kids.
02:23:39 But second of all, who the ****?
02:23:42 Would leave their kids with this guy.
02:23:50 Alright, so moving right along it says the victim was being watched by lake along with two other children in a video call with the mom of the other children earlier this evening, Dee Hart was in good health and alert but was crying and fussy.
02:24:07 So he did a video call.
02:24:14 Now you want to.
02:24:15 See the the mom, the mom of the year.
02:24:22 So this is the working mom, the mom that thought making PowerPoints all day was more important.
02:24:27 Than being a mom.
02:24:29 It's OK.
02:24:31 Black Lives Matter, she probably said as she left her one year old son.
02:24:41 A maniac.
02:24:43 A low IQ maniac with ****** strength and affidavits, David says the boys mother returned to the Los Lomas home shortly before midnight shortly before midnight.
02:24:55 What kind of ******* job does she have shortly before midnight?
02:24:59 Where she found her son unresponsive, the two other children in lakes care were also found with injuries, authorities say.
02:25:08 Lawrence de Hart, Aaron's uncle, says Aaron was on life support on Friday at around 2:30 PM. We were all there at the hospital and they decided to disconnect everything and let them pass away.
02:25:20 Never in my life that I think my family, a 20 year old, newly newly married couple with almost an exactly 1 year old.
02:25:28 Maybe we'll have to live through this.
02:25:34 Why did you leave your baby?
02:25:38 With someone that you shouldn't even.
02:25:41 Be around and feel safe around.
02:25:46 Lake is said to have spoken with police the day before the boys death, seeking damages for a futon to heart is said.
02:25:53 To have been injured on, OK.
02:26:02 So there.
02:26:02 You go.
02:26:07 Diversity kills.
02:26:11 Diversity kills, but they wanted to be the alpha slave, right?
02:26:15 They wanted more stuff.
02:26:17 How are we going to afford all the stuff we want if Mom doesn't work at her job where she gets?
02:26:21 Off work at midnight.
02:26:23 So it's probably.
02:26:24 Some ****** job that's not making a ton.
02:26:25 Of money.
02:26:27 I mean if.
02:26:27 You're not getting home till ******* midnight.
02:26:29 You're not bringing home a bunch of cash.
02:26:31 So was it really worth it?
02:26:35 Was it?
02:26:43 Was it worth it for that extra IKEA furniture for those extra Xbox games?
02:26:54 For the fancier diapers.
02:26:57 Whatever **** you thought you needed.
02:27:02 Was it worth it?
02:27:13 This is what I'm talking about and look, obviously I've got some sympathy for them.
02:27:16 But not not really.
02:27:23 Because I can't imagine in a million years and a million ******* years.
02:27:28 Leaving a one year old.
02:27:32 With this ******* guy.
02:27:35 Never in a million ******* years would I leave a one year old with that ******* guy just by looking.
02:27:41 The physiognomy is so ******* obvious.
02:27:50 Not a million ******* years.
02:27:54 So don't really have a whole lot of sympathy.
02:28:11 But anyway, so I wanted to show you guys.
02:28:13 That and I.
02:28:14 Think there was something else around here.
Speaker
02:28:21 That might have been it.
Devon
02:28:24 That might have been it.
02:28:29 Alright, let me go back to chat for.
02:28:31 A little bit longer and then we'll.
Speaker 5
02:28:33 We'll wrap things up.
Devon
02:28:35 Make it a little little shorter tonight.
02:28:38 Last times was like a marathon stream.
02:28:41 I was so exhausted after that stream.
02:28:44 That's why I ended it.
02:28:45 I started starting to.
02:28:46 Get a little.
02:28:47 I wasn't like, nodding off by any means, but like I was, I was starting to creep into that zone.
02:28:55 Let's see here.
02:28:58 That mom was totally a bill.
02:29:00 I'm leftist.
02:29:01 She is now paying for the sin of not being racist.
02:29:04 Racism saves lives.
02:29:05 Yeah, she most likely was.
02:29:08 And look, this is what I'm trying to tell you guys.
02:29:10 That's the majority of white people.
02:29:11 That stupid ******* chick.
02:29:13 That's the majority.
02:29:15 They're in the majority.
02:29:16 You're not.
02:29:18 Hate to tell you.
02:29:20 They're in the majority.
02:29:22 And that's in ******* Texas.
02:29:25 That's in ******* Texas.
02:29:35 Like I say, you take one look at that.
02:29:37 ******* guy.
02:29:39 I wouldn't trust him with a ham sandwich.
02:29:43 Can you do a video on Seinfeld?
02:29:45 I have a friend that thinks it's good and would like to have good talking points against it.
02:29:51 Yeah, it's pretty easy.
02:29:52 I mean, it's just about, it's about a bunch of ******* neurotic Jews in New York being terrible people.
02:30:02 There's, there's a lot of shows like that, that.
02:30:04 I don't get why people like.
02:30:07 You know, always Sunny is another example of it.
02:30:10 I mean, it's not about Jews, but it's just here.
02:30:12 Look, here's a show about terrible people.
02:30:14 It's so hilarious.
02:30:15 Look how terrible they are.
02:30:18 And I don't get it, I don't.
02:30:18 Get it? It's because.
02:30:21 And makes it it.
02:30:22 Lowers the bar, so ******* low.
02:30:26 That it it finally lets a certain number of people feel superior.
02:30:32 And maybe that's what.
02:30:33 Seinfeld does, too.
02:30:35 Where it's kind of like for the same reason why people would watch Jerry Springer.
02:30:39 You'd watch it because.
02:30:42 You would feel.
02:30:46 About being a wage slave, you'd feel good about.
02:30:48 Your little box that you live in.
02:30:51 And your frozen?
02:30:53 You know, hot pockets or whatever you had for.
02:30:55 Dinner and your.
02:30:59 Your ****** Tinder date you just had.
02:31:02 And your.
02:31:04 You know 8 hours of video games slash Netflix watching before passing out and doing it all over again.
02:31:12 You know, sitting in traffic the next day for another hour, working at a desk for like 8 hours, maybe 9.
02:31:19 Sitting in traffic for another hour, going home.
02:31:23 Reheat another ******* hot pocket.
02:31:26 Play video games.
02:31:27 You know, I mean like.
02:31:28 If that's your life.
02:31:32 It's easy to be like, wow, this this kind of sucks.
02:31:35 But if you turn on the TV.
02:31:39 And you see a bunch of people and.
02:31:40 Their lifes a ******* nightmare.
02:31:42 You know, it's makes you feel good.
02:31:45 You're like, oh, I don't have it so bad.
02:31:47 I could be like these people on Jerry Springer.
02:31:50 I could be like these people.
02:31:51 On Seinfeld, these neurotic Jews that.
02:31:54 Just keep they keep.
02:31:55 Finding themselves in like these crazy situations, you know?
02:31:58 And they can't.
02:31:59 They keep ******* their lives up because of their they keep making all these bad decisions makes me feel like I'm making the right decisions because I'm not ******* my life up and that's kind of how always sunny is too, you know, like, oh, look, oh, look, they they'd be so, you know, I'm smart of them because I know if they were to just do this one thing they want to be in this mess.
02:32:19 No, they did this stupid thing.
02:32:21 And now look at the.
02:32:22 Mess that they're.
02:32:23 In, they're so stupid.
02:32:25 I'm smarter than them.
02:32:26 My life is so much more put together than them.
02:32:28 You guys.
02:32:29 Oh, if George Costanza.
02:32:31 Yeah, if he would, just if he could just not do that one little weird thing.
02:32:35 He wouldn't be in this mess, but he does it anyway.
02:32:38 Stupid George, you know, he's always getting into all these shenanigans cause he just he can't see.
02:32:44 I mean, he's not.
02:32:45 As smart as I am.
02:32:47 You know, he doesn't see.
02:32:48 He doesn't see what I see.
02:32:53 You know, I mean like that's that's kind of.
02:32:55 I feel like the the the appeal.
02:32:58 The appeal is you.
02:33:01 You watch people who have it.
02:33:05 And that's why I even think no.
02:33:07 I've never watched the Kardashians, so.
02:33:08 Maybe I'm wrong about this?
02:33:10 But I I I think that might even be the Kardashians or or at least the shows where it's about like rich people.
02:33:16 I think it's it's to make people who aren't rich but want to be rich like they want to be the alpha slave.
02:33:21 Like that's what drives them, right.
02:33:23 Like they're chasing that ******* carrot cause they want to get stuff.
02:33:26 And so, but because they'll never be rich because you kind of have to be born.
02:33:30 Into it most, most most.
02:33:33 Pretty much mostly in America and probably.
02:33:35 Throughout the whole.
02:33:36 Last you, you, you.
02:33:37 Have to be born into it.
02:33:38 Very rarely are these rags the richest stories, really.
02:33:42 Rags to riches when it happens occasionally there's always outliers, but generally speaking.
02:33:47 You you pretty much stay.
02:33:48 In the class that.
02:33:49 You were born in uh the big.
02:33:50 Lie is that you don't.
02:33:53 And that, in fact now now, because the way things are going, a lot of people are are gonna are ending up in classes below their parents, right?
02:34:04 And so I think part of the way that.
02:34:08 People feel comfortable with their situation, their relationship with wealth, their proximity to wealth is by watching a show that shows that.
02:34:21 Ohh well actually it's not all.
02:34:23 It's not all gum.
02:34:24 Drops and fairy you know fairies and stuff, you know?
02:34:29 Their lives are a mess.
02:34:31 These people are ******* nuts.
02:34:33 You know, look.
02:34:34 At all this, at least I don't have to deal with, you know, these neurotic ******* crazy people.
02:34:42 That's The thing is, a lot of it is just.
02:34:47 It's it's cope in.
02:34:49 A way.
02:34:50 It's helping you and it's copium kind of.
02:34:53 I mean, it's helping you cope with.
02:34:55 Your your life.
02:34:59 Because it gives you something fictional to compare it to.
02:35:06 And because, increasingly, people aren't even actually interacting.
02:35:11 With reality I mean not just because of the lockdowns, it was happening well before that.
02:35:19 Having that fictional thing to compare it to tailor made to make it appear as though like you have to be pretty, you have a.
02:35:26 Pretty ****** **.
02:35:29 Life situation for for that to look better, you know.
02:35:35 You know, to, to, to to see the the the neurotic psychopaths in these TV shows and think that and to be jealous of them, you know.
02:35:45 So it a lot of it's just a I think.
02:35:48 Make you feel good about yourself.
02:35:52 And your your wage slave cell.
02:35:56 When you did your stir about the craft craft cheese slices, you forgot about Lunchables.
02:36:02 They are the quintessential single working mom sack lunch for school.
02:36:07 Mommy hates me.
02:36:08 They came to normalize the kids from better families wanted to.
02:36:11 Have them to fit in.
02:36:13 Oh yeah.
02:36:13 No, I wanted Lunchables.
02:36:16 I was jealous of the kid that had Lunchables.
02:36:19 He had he.
02:36:19 Had Lunchables and, well, my, my, I mean, my moms lunches were worse than Lunchables, I think.
02:36:27 When you did your as the same one.
02:36:29 Can you review one for the Cuckoo's nest? Also, I shared that Andrew Johnson's speech with more people. Good stuff. Yeah. No, that's something that people.
02:36:39 Need to know about.
02:36:42 As far as one floor of the Cuckoo's Nest, I.
02:36:44 Saw it a really long time ago at at the rewatch it.
02:36:50 It's been a long time.
02:36:52 As you read, she returned as you read or as you read.
02:36:57 She returned to him after work late at night to find her dead child.
02:37:04 Pretty obvious he was stealing the pootie.
02:37:07 As they say.
02:37:12 I'm not sure you're saying.
02:37:13 I think that, uh.
02:37:15 I think she just was like a.
02:37:19 We got waitress or something.
02:37:22 Or or not.
02:37:23 I don't know.
02:37:23 Maybe she was banging some rando.
02:37:26 When I was like 7, my mom gave me a lunchable.
02:37:31 I didn't eat that day.
02:37:41 Devon bloomer moment.
02:37:42 No, I just.
02:37:43 Didn't know what the ****?
02:37:45 The fact that person sang.
Speaker 7
02:37:49 Right.
Devon
02:37:49 Maybe, maybe, maybe.
02:37:50 Maybe it's a weird reference that I don't get.
02:37:53 Maybe it is a weird reference.
02:37:54 Maybe it was a boon.
02:37:55 I don't.
02:37:55 Know they're probably covering up this guy was probably her.
02:37:58 Bowl. No, I don't think.
02:38:01 I don't think that's what it was.
02:38:02 I think it was just she worked as a waitress.
02:38:05 You should do American made.
02:38:08 Starring. Starring Tom Cruise.
02:38:12 I had placed that move in the same category as gangs in your American made.
02:38:16 I don't think I've.
02:38:17 Seen that either.
02:38:20 American made, let me write that one down.
02:38:31 You guys give me a lot of movies to watch.
02:38:34 The problem is.
02:38:37 Not the watching, not I have.
02:38:39 I have the ability to watch them when.
02:38:41 I'm doing other stuff.
02:38:44 It's the the bandwidth to get them is no longer.
02:38:51 You know around so I have to, I have to remember that oh, it's after midnight time to get.
02:38:56 That movie, you know what I mean?
02:39:06 We were considered doing game reviews.
02:39:08 There has been many games with subversion narratives lady lately.
02:39:11 There's there's a guy who does game reviews.
02:39:14 Why am I spacing on his his Internet name?
02:39:20 I can find his Internet name because I DM on Twitter sometimes.
Speaker
02:39:27 Let's see.
Devon
02:39:32 Is it an endeavor?
02:39:33 Is that?
02:39:33 The guy.
Speaker 2
02:39:37 No, that's not him, is it?
Devon
02:39:41 It's where is it?
02:39:51 Maybe it is an endeavor.
02:39:52 No, it's not.
02:39:53 Endeavour, is it, or is an American crogan.
02:39:58 I'm getting these guys mixed up.
02:39:59 Now it's American krogan.
02:40:03 I'm pretty sure.
02:40:05 Yeah, yeah.
02:40:06 American krogan does.
02:40:07 I had to go back on the sorry American krogan.
02:40:10 It's nothing personal.
02:40:11 I'm just bad with names.
02:40:12 American krogan has done a bunch of game reviews.
02:40:16 The reason I wouldn't do it.
02:40:17 Right now I don't, I haven't.
02:40:19 Played video games since.
02:40:22 Uh, it was the Star Wars battle.
02:40:26 It was the battlefront.
02:40:28 Three or it was the.
02:40:31 I don't know.
02:40:31 It was one of the the Star Wars Battlefront games because it was kind of like battlefield and it was like.
02:40:35 In between battle.
02:40:36 I used to play battlefield all the time.
02:40:38 That was like my my jam, right?
02:40:40 I was.
02:40:41 I was ranked top, top ten in the world for a couple of the battlefield.
02:40:49 Games I was really really, really.
Speaker
02:40:52 Really, really. Really. Really.
Devon
02:40:54 Good, but that's nothing to be proud of because it was because I played a really, really, really like a lot, like a stupid amount.
02:41:00 Like a ******* crazy person amount and I was high for most of it, so I also.
02:41:06 Did a lot of drugs, so it was.
02:41:07 It was a big it was a huge *******.
02:41:09 Waste of my life and because of that I've I've played.
02:41:14 I feel like I've played so many games.
02:41:17 It's probably best I never play another game again.
02:41:20 And it's been a long time. I haven't played a video game in like I said, since like one of the battlefront ones, and that was probably in 2015 or something like that. So I've I've.
02:41:32 Hung up my video game controllers actually.
02:41:37 I never really played console games that much.
02:41:40 That was one of those elitist PC ****** that talked about PC master race that was, that was me.
02:41:47 Last console I had was like a *******.
02:41:50 Nintendo 64 or Sega Saturn or something, you know?
02:41:55 But yeah, I did not play.
02:42:00 I did not play.
02:42:03 Console games and I don't play any games now so.
02:42:05 I wouldn't know.
02:42:07 And and that's the same problem I I have a computer that could probably play games, but I'd have to, you know, get them and download them and then play them.
02:42:15 And then you.
02:42:15 Know and it's not like a movie like a movie I can watch and be done with in two hours a game, probably at least 8.
02:42:28 So it says you're not missing anything.
02:42:30 Yeah, I'm not really into.
02:42:32 The games I think games are.
02:42:35 It's another it's a dopamine thing.
02:42:38 It's it's just another it's, it's.
02:42:40 It might as well be ****.
02:42:42 Instead of a.
02:42:42 Coomer you're a groomer.
02:42:45 And like I said, I say that as someone who.
02:42:47 Who played a stupid amount?
02:42:50 I'm just telling you like, I'm not saying like I'm better than you, cause I don't play games, I'm saying.
02:42:55 Don't do what I did.
02:42:57 I when I looked back at that because it was like the most productive part of my life, it was when I was at my, you know, like my my peak performance.
Speaker 5
02:43:07 And I and I.
Devon
02:43:08 Used it to to beat people at get at games.
02:43:11 It's so ******* stupid.
02:43:12 I should have been using that, that energy.
02:43:14 Level that competitiveness.
02:43:16 For things that mattered, and I could.
02:43:19 Have been and I didn't.
02:43:22 Do you agree with William? Mr. Pierce's speech?
02:43:24 At Booth that went by real fast.
02:43:26 Where to go?
02:43:27 About how those how if there's anyone in America who deserves to suffer, it's the white middle class.
02:43:35 The more you review movies and commercials, the more his words ring.
02:43:39 Like I said, like it's.
02:43:43 I don't, I don't.
02:43:44 I think it's less productive to think about blame.
02:43:47 Yeah, it's just to understand the situation and increasingly, there's not even really a middle class.
02:43:53 There's there's a.
02:43:57 There's starting to be a separation, the people.
02:44:01 That you're calling middle class.
02:44:04 I think really instead of wage slaves, they're just debt slaves.
02:44:09 Like I've got friends that are, quote UN quote middle class and they're like half a million ******* dollars in.
02:44:14 They've got a really ******* nice house.
02:44:17 A sweet pool they got.
02:44:19 You know one.
02:44:20 Of them's got, like, an $80,000 ******* car.
02:44:23 Really nice. You know, like like must be nice, right? But not really. Because, yeah, and his wife's got, like, hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loan debt. **** that. **** that ****.
02:44:41 So it's they've dug their own grave.
02:44:46 UM.
02:44:48 This is going really fast.
02:44:49 Alright, kids, these days don't land party.
02:44:52 You can't even talk **** on modern games anymore.
02:44:56 See, that's that's there's.
02:44:57 I don't.
02:44:58 I wouldn't miss it.
02:44:59 Half the fun of being really good at the game was just griefing the **** out of the server.
02:45:05 It was.
02:45:06 It was being.
02:45:07 I felt like I hadn't truly won the game until I made this enough people on the server rage quit to.
02:45:15 Where it killed the server.
02:45:17 And I would do that on a very regular basis and that's when I felt like I'd won.
02:45:22 And I know that's juvenile and whatever, but so is playing video games.
02:45:25 So whatever it it kind of goes with the territory.
02:45:28 And you can't even talk ****.
02:45:31 You could, you could say whatever the **** you wanted in old games, there was no moderation.
02:45:37 At all at all.
02:45:42 And you could get banned from servers if the admin was on and that would happen sometimes.
02:45:51 Having more kids than you can afford, so you can't afford to give the kids any luxuries, unironically based.
02:45:58 If it's a a monogamous couple, do it, yeah.
02:46:01 That's because you wouldn't be focused on stuff.
02:46:05 If you stop being focused on stuff.
02:46:08 Then uh.
02:46:10 Yeah. Kids look, poor kids.
02:46:15 Kids don't usually know they're poor. They only know they're poor. If you put them in environments where they're there's a huge contrast, like I didn't become aware of my family's economic.
02:46:29 Position in the.
02:46:30 Hierarchy and tell my parents leveled up by selling their ****.
02:46:36 In California, which you know property values in California, even if you're in the ****** part of California.
02:46:42 Versus Albuquerque, which is at the time, I don't know what it is now, but at the time was like, you know, ******* nothing.
02:46:49 So we went from like literally we.
02:46:51 Were the last house before government projects?
02:46:54 Like the next.
02:46:55 House over was a duplex.
02:46:56 That was.
02:46:57 Government projects and not in like a good town.
02:47:03 And so we went from there to.
02:47:06 The nicest part of Albuquerque?
02:47:09 And all of a sudden I was just like, I feel poor for the first time, I didn't feel.
02:47:13 We live next to the projects.
02:47:15 I feel poor now.
02:47:22 OK, let's take a look here.
02:47:26 Less people talking here. I can really get to everybody here because I want to wrap things up. Intel's new CPUs have a thing where they can censor out what you should talk with racial slows if you check their newest YouTube video on their social post. What?
Speaker 5
02:47:43 What are you ******* serious?
02:47:45 They're CPUs.
Devon
02:47:51 Are you ******* kidding me?
02:47:54 Are you serious?
02:47:57 I gotta.
02:47:57 I'll I'll look that up.
02:47:59 That's a big deal.
02:48:01 That's a big deal, guys.
02:48:03 That's a step.
02:48:03 That's a huge step in, like the oh, **** direction.
02:48:11 That's ****** **.
02:48:13 That's ****** **.
02:48:14 I did not know that.
02:48:16 I hope you're wrong.
02:48:17 I hope you're wrong.
02:48:18 I hope you're misunderstanding something cause that's ****** **.
02:48:22 Well, as you saw, I mean I guess it's not too crazy.
02:48:24 Because uh.
02:48:25 As Roush I put this on my telegram, Roush tweeted out he had stored a.
02:48:32 A document I haven't read the document, but it shouldn't matter like he stored it on his cloud storage on Google Drive and they deleted it from his Google Drive saying that it violated their terms of service.
02:48:45 This is the message.
02:48:46 He got right here.
02:48:47 Let me bring this up.
02:48:48 That's the wrong one.
02:48:49 Where's the stupid obs?
02:48:55 Never, ever, ever trust the cloud.
02:49:00 Never, ever, ever ******* trust the cloud.
02:49:03 And honestly, if that really is where it's going, if they if Intel processors have the ability to to do something like that.
02:49:12 And again I'm, I'll have, I'll research it, I'm going to.
02:49:15 Have to find.
02:49:18 I I won't.
02:49:19 I won't use a processor that can do that.
02:49:22 I'll find other means.
Speaker 2
02:49:30 OK.
Devon
02:49:31 So it says click the link, click what link?
02:49:45 Someone says three times store I don't know, like just local storage is better.
02:49:51 I mean there there's some sometimes you need.
02:49:53 Some cloud storage for distribution purposes, but you should be stored never store should on the cloud that you can't that you don't have local backups of never ever ever.
02:50:12 Alright, well if I hit this I don't it.
02:50:14 I can't hit it in.
02:50:15 The chat.
02:50:16 I'll look it up though.
02:50:18 I'm I'm sure I'm.
02:50:20 I'm sure I'll find it.
02:50:22 Yeah, someone saying it looks like it's software and not the CPU.
02:50:30 Yeah, well, it's opening.
02:50:31 I'll look at the.
02:50:31 Link here.
02:50:34 So far it does look like software.
02:50:37 And not hardware.
02:50:42 It's not wanting to load it, it's trying to load it in the gate trovo.
02:50:48 ******* browser, which makes it impossible to see.
02:50:56 This looks like software.
02:51:01 But it's still gay. But UM.
02:51:06 Yeah, it says tired of online gamers shouting racist or sexist slurs as you play.
02:51:11 Not really.
02:51:12 Intel is preparing to roll out a new program that can help users automatically filter out abusive language from their in game voice chats.
02:51:21 The program, called BLEEP, uses the AI processing.
02:51:25 Onboard Intel power PCs to remove.
02:51:27 So I think it's just their software utilizing.
02:51:31 Part of their processor, but the processor, that part of the processor isn't.
02:51:37 Made specifically for Bleeping, it's just utilizing that part.
02:51:41 Of the processor.
02:51:43 OK.
02:51:43 Well, that's that's that's less alarming before you have to hear them.
02:51:47 Intel showed some screenshots of BLEEP during the.
02:51:52 I don't know how you'd be able to do this without significant amount of lag in a game.
02:51:57 That could mean.
02:51:57 Life or death?
02:52:00 They did not provide a demo, but based on images it appears bleep can recognize and immediately remove offensive words in chat.
02:52:07 And I guess in voice.
02:52:09 I mean, it would be like.
02:52:11 We'll hear when a word is redacted remains unclear.
02:52:15 That's super gay.
02:52:17 It's it's gated.
02:52:18 This is what?
02:52:21 It accounts for innovation.
02:52:25 That's super ******* gay.
02:52:28 I'm sorry.
02:52:29 That's super *******.
02:52:32 Alright guys.
02:52:34 Momma head out.
02:52:37 Got some things I got to do before the.
02:52:39 The sun comes up.
02:52:43 And then I'll sleep because I'm a vampire.
02:52:47 And then we'll meet back here again Saturday night.
02:52:55 Hope you guys enjoyed yourselves.
02:52:57 Don't trust the cloud.
02:52:58 Don't trust the technocracy.
02:53:00 Do not trust.
02:53:02 Diversity with your one year old baby.
02:53:07 Trust only us.
02:53:09 I'll try to by Saturday to have the Discord server information for you guys.
02:53:13 I I have that guys name that took it.
02:53:17 I wrote it down.
02:53:17 He gave me his bit.
02:53:18 Shoot channel.
02:53:18 I'm going to talk.
02:53:20 To you guy, I just haven't had a chance.
02:53:21 I've been real busy last few days and I'm still busy, but I'll I'll make sure to try to watch some of your bit shoot videos.
02:53:27 I'm sure it's fine.
02:53:28 I'm sure it's fine, but I'll just watch.
02:53:30 A couple of videos anyway.
02:53:32 And I'll hit you up.
02:53:34 And we'll get that Discord server going so that we can get the matrix server going and we'll get the movie production going.
02:53:43 But also I was thinking just in terms of having a nice little hub to to help each other with homesteading stuff, home Ham radio.
02:53:52 I know not everyone's into that, but like we could have like a.
02:53:55 A room that's for helping out with that.
02:53:58 I was thinking setting up maybe like unofficial Nets on ham radio.
02:54:04 And just helping people getting go.
02:54:07 And yeah, is there like, oh, but you know, you end up having to give your information to the government.
02:54:12 Yeah, but whatever, I mean, you know, if you don't feel comfortable with it, then it's fine.
02:54:16 They already have your information.
02:54:18 UM, and then we could have stuff like, you know, raising animals. There's just stuff that I need help with.
02:54:25 Like I've never had chickens before.
02:54:27 I'm going to be doing that fairly soon.
02:54:30 Or at least within within.
02:54:31 The year I think I'll, I'll start having chickens.
02:54:34 And just stuff like that where we can, we can trade stories and and figure out how to do some of this stuff.
02:54:41 But primarily as I said.
02:54:43 That originally it'll be to help us coordinate getting that movie done and finding out who can do what in terms of like, you know, maybe creating soundtracks and and.
02:54:54 And stuff like that so.
02:54:56 All right guys, have a good evening.
02:54:59 And remember.
02:55:02 The future belongs to Tom.
Speaker
02:55:05 The monk.
Devon
02:55:07 And for black pilled.
Speaker 2
02:55:09 I am Devin stack.
Speaker 3
02:55:29 I just.
Speaker
02:55:39 They're not going to work.
02:55:41 Just need something in pitch in.
02:56:10 Right.
Speaker 7
02:56:29 Fire on the top.
Speaker
02:56:40 ******* win.
02:56:54 Put the flag in front.
02:56:55 Of the lighters to be lived.
02:57:05 There we go.
02:57:23 I guess that's great.
02:57:30 It's one of those kind of flags.
Speaker 3
02:57:49 The children's podcast? Really.
Speaker
02:57:53 It's already done now.
Speaker 10
02:57:54 Yeah, I thought I should.
