Speaker 0 (0s): Welcome back everybody. Thursday
Speaker 1 (19s): It's Thursday where does the time go? Well, it flies when you're having fun. Time flies, time drags, I guess it depends on how you define time. Are you having the time of your life? What time?
What do you mean by the time of my life at the time? Are you having a good time? Well, not having a bad time. Who's time. Is it? If I'm hear in your hair, it does that make it our time. Remember that line from fast times at Ridgemont high, when Jeff Spicoli orders that pizza, the teacher gets all mad and he's like, how dare you order this pizza on my time? And Jeff Spicoli says, well, if you're here and I'm here, does that make it our time?
Nothing wrong with a little pizza on our time. Amazing how that is. Isn't it. When the smartest kid in, when the smartest kid in school in the seventies was a stoner surfer, the only one thinking critically and they make him out to be the dummy. Amazing. It's a good segue. It's a good segue into something I've been thinking about lately.
And that is the art of subversion. You know what that is? You can call it Deanna fighting without fighting. A lot of times we hear things like, Oh, that was very subversive. Or we hear about subversive tactics. Oh yes. My friend subversion subversion is a subtle way of making radical change.
Proud of what I've created. It was radical. It does that make sense? If you want to create change a radical change, a radical change, you can be proud of proud of what I'm creating. It was radical is the best way to do that is like the boiling frog. Don't get me wrong. If you wanted to do radical change and you have the means, you have coercive power. You could bring in a military, Assassinate the leader in change the country that can happen.
And it does happen all the time. However, when you think of subversion, I want you to think of martial arts. Think about if someone much bigger than you is going to throw a punch and they're you are, and there's this giant of a man are this giant, have a woman and their getting ready to punch you right in the face. If your a small person, you can't absorb to many of those blows out, but what you could do, if you trained hard, you could be conscious of the type of punch they're going to throw.
And when they throw that punch, you could lean back out of the way. And then as they go to punch you, as hard as they can, you lean back and you grab their arm and you pull their arm in the direction in which they are punching you, help them throw that punch. And that will use their momentum against them. I remember once when I was a young man and I was wrestling, I went and I wrestled this giant of a man who was probably 20 pounds heavier than me.
And he was just, he looks like one big, giant muscle. And because I had wrestled for so long, I knew that this guy relied on his strength. And so we were wrestling and I you tie up and you and I pushed into him really quick, as hard as I could. I had my hand on his head and is hand on his right arm, were all tied up. And I shoved all my weight quickly into him. And what the laws of nature say, what for every action, there's a reaction.
And, and as I pushed him, he pushed back as hard as he could. And, and that moment snap, I threw him right over on my shoulders, just a head in arm. I used his momentum to throw him over my body, that same tactic of a quick setup, and then using momentum against a larger enemy is the methodology of subversion that I want to talk about. Now, if you look around our country, if you look at what's happening, you can see the years of subversion flowering.
What you're seeing on the streets today is not something that's happened or is the result of something that's happened over the last four years or eight years. It's more likely the result of something that's happened over the last 20 years or 30 years.
Speaker 0 (5m 58s): You see the very foundation of subversion comes from undermining. That cohesiveness the values that keep a community together. Let me give you an example of, of what I'm talking about, which one have you elected CNN, which is one of you are elected Fox news, which is one of you elected or any of the media to be the people in charge of informing us, which one of you elected the New York times?
Which one of you elected Walter Cronkite? Which one have you elected Pierce Morgan, Ben Shapiro, Rachel Maddow, Tucker Carlson. Which one do you knuckleheads is responsible for electing those dummies zero. None of you are, that was inflicted upon us over the last 30 or 40 years, the rules of media have changed.
We have gone from being, we have gone from our media as a message to inform us as a medium of information, to a medium of indoctrination
Speaker 2 (7m 38s): Information, indoctrination subjugation.
Speaker 0 (7m 45s): And it's a slow burn. It's a slow burn. Mr. Smith goes to Washington. No, there was one. Remember the guy from Mayberry, the Andy Griffith show up. Remember that his dad was a cop.
He's a good guy. Remember that one? The cops or the good guys. And they arrested the criminals. They were keeping people safe. That's what cops did. They were there to protect and serve slowly, very slowly. Throughout Hollywood throughout the media, cops became the bad guys. All of a sudden the criminal wasn't this person that was hurting people.
The criminal was a victim and the cop became a pig. The cop became the untrustworthy power, abusive knucklehead, and the criminal became a victim of culture of victim of society. You just got a bunch of bad brakes because the environment sucks for me as a man in his forties. The pivotal moment in that was that movie.
Color's you remember that? I think it was Robert DeNiro and Jeff Spicoli. I know that's not his name. I forgot his name was that guy's name. C'mon you guys know is name the guy that bangs all of the hot chicks. He went and got a jeez. Remember you went down, went and got El Chapo. You played a Harvey milk.
Jeff Spicoli. You remember him? Mary Madonna. I can't think of the guy's name, man. Anyway, it is not important. But the movie colors, I was one of the first movies where they really showed the abusiveness of cops in a Hollywood setting. And if you look at the, the slow burn of cultural inversion, you can see it play out on the movies, right?
We've seen cops go from good guys and bad guys. And along with that, we've seen real time footage of cops being bad guys in the real world, right? That's whatever a cop does, something horrible. It's filmed and put on T V and blasted out to millions of peo...
