All Right, So, one of the things that I mentioned in the last hour was about this veering off into radical leftism among teachers. And it's not just teachers. It's most prevalent in people who go to graduate degree programs and such like. The more quote educated, the more sheep skins that you get more and more likely you are to support political violence. And I'm sure that's just a coincidence, but I'm actually not so sure. I'm pretty sure that if you were to go take a look at the teaching colleges, you would find that basically everybody views everything through the suppress or oppressed lens, like I have no doubt, and then those people teach the next generation and so on and so forth. And as Nick Fretis has talked about on his podcast called making the argument, conservatives are having way more kids, like three times as many kids as liberals are. Liberals are not replacing actually themselves, and so them being in the schools teaching your kids is a vital piece of the puzzle here, because if you didn't have those leftists teaching your kids, well, then they would be out and within a generation you would have a majority conservative country. Right theoretically, that's his argument. Rob Henderson posted this data was a couple months ago. Actually, relative to Americans with a high school education, Americans with graduate degrees are twice as likely to support political violence. More education equals higher support for political violence, if you are so. And the numbers to the question, if you are protesting something unjust, it is reasonable to damage property. Who agrees with that, well, thirty six percent of people with graduate or professional degrees do. If you have a bachelor's degree, nineteen percent degree with that. But it's reasonable to damage property if you are protesting something unjust, as determined by you, right truth. So if you think it's unjust, have at it totally justified for people with some college or AA degree. So I got two year degree. I guess that is only thirteen percent think that's acceptable. High school diploma or less eighteen percent. So for the three categories high school diploma, bachelor's degree, or a two year degree, those numbers range from thirteen to eighteen to nineteen percent, but with graduate degrees. Thirty six percent. Let's move over to the question violence is often necessary to create social change. Here all of the numbers are a little bit higher. But for the high school diplomas or less twenty three percent some college or certificate twenty percent agree. Bachelor's degree. Oh, now we're up to twenty six percent, So a quarter of people with bachelor's degrees think violence is often necessary to create social change, and then graduate degree holders forty percent, So there's actually more support for violence. Rather than property damage when it's when it's for justice. The managing editor at Fox, will Richie Ardella, said the White House Correspondence Association alleged shooter wasn't some nut job lurking on the fringes of society, forgotten by the system. He was well educated, credentialed, employed, and institutionally formed. That's what makes this so disturbing at first glance. This doesn't look like a breakdown of the system. It looks more like a product of it. Academia, media and politics helped build the moral permission structure. Batya Unger Sargon. She is a writer at Newsweek also hosts her own show. She said four days ago, The New York Times published a Cozy conversation which included Hassan Piker justifying political murder. The week before, Piker was welcomed onto the Obama Bros. Podcast where he said that he would vote for Hamas. That's what he said a thousand times over. He would vote for Hamas. Piker has been gushed over by aoc Rokana Zoron Mamdani. There's no both sides here, she says, only one side is getting shot at, and it's because the left is infested, rather infested with the belief that political violence is justified. Right, And I just gave you the data and you got almost half of your people saying it's okay. That's why I said there's no natural immunity inside the Democrat Party for this, because it's it's whole ideological framework is a relativist one. We say somebody opposes us, that makes them bad, and so now anything goes and we can call them all these names, all these smears. We can say whatever we want about them, because they're bad obviously, and we're on the side of good and justice and all that is right as we define it. This from Cannakoah the Great. He's a social media guy. Cole Allen's archived tweets he predicted Kamala wins all swing states. He compared Trump's win to Nazis getting elected, and then he moved over to Blue Sky. He retweeted every mainstream Democrat on this platform. What radicalized him were the same talking points repeated basically every day on the left. He retweeted mainstream Democrats comparing Trump to Hitler, like Jennifer Rubin, who said, imagine obsessing over polls in the nineteen thirty three German election without covering mind KMF Trump is instigating a pilgrim, that this is what a fascist does. Cole Allen shared Democrat conspiracies popular on x, including claims that Trump staged the Butler assassination. He also shared posts about Elon Musk's Starlink stealing the twenty twenty four election, and he shared posts claiming Tulci Gabbard was a Russian asset. Imagine for a moment if Joe Biden or Barack Obama had had five attempts on their life and you had this string of evidence directly linking all of the attackers basically to this same kind of political rhetoric coming from the Republicans. Do you think we would be having a quote national conversation. Of course we would. Media would be sticking a microphone in the face of every single Republican, pulling up their old tweets, pulling up old statements, asking did you contribute to this atmosphere? Did you create this environment that motivated this whack job? Hey, remember Pizzagate. That's exactly what we saw. That's exactly the coverage we saw. There was a recognition that this is unacceptable, and now we're going to try to blame as many people as possible for helping to instigate it. But not this time or the last four times. A guy who writes under the moniker of Liam out Loud lists the five steps and a timeline here of leftist radicalization. Remember, go back to twenty ten through twenty fifteen. He says, safe spaces, Oh, how we mocked those safe spaces and the famous cry closet in the library of a college. Right got to have a safe space. Disagreement was reframed as harm and individuals were then offered protection from the harm. I can't hear that thing, it's harming me. Right. Then that morphs into cancel culture from like twenty fifteen through twenty twenty, where they and go after people ruin their lives. If you say anything that is quote harmful or if you have a harmful idea, then you move to the censorship phase twenty twenty through twenty twenty two. Right people with dangerous and harmful opinions or misinformation were systematically silenced. Remember the Canadian truckers structural exile twenty two to twenty four, frozen bank accounts, getting jailed for social media posts, credentials, erased from professional life, and now we are in the direct violence normalization phase see Charlie Kirk's assassination. The collective left to psyche has fully accepted that death is acceptable if someone is branded a fascist or far right. If it radicalizes any further collective attacks are the presumable next stage. Democrats, you better get your house in order. But I don't think you can. You know. Stories are powerful. They help us make sense of things, to understand experiences.

Baines says, Okay, Pete, let's start with the premise that, yes, social murder is acceptable, as per Hassan Piker. Okay, give us a list of the social murderers who deserve to die. And when are you going to cast the first stone, take the first shot. If you really believe what you believe, when are you going to get involved or do you just talk the talk and let other useful idiots do your dirty work. Yes, So what these influencers do, because they lack any kind of ethics or responsibility, they will highlight somebody and direct the direct their audience at a person, smear that person, paint them as well. What are they saying about Trump? That rapist, pedophile, trader, Russian puppet? Right, all of these things literally hitler. Right. So when you create that permission structure for the audience, then you know you should know that anybody who hears that that kind of directed fire all the time hyping somebody up to be murder worthy, right, then somebody will go do it? Not you? Oh not me? Free speech. I'm just talking stuff on my podcast right again, because I come from radio, like we have, there is a sense of responsibility that radio hosts have to never do this kind of thing because you never know how some unstable nutball is going to take it. But here's the thing, the list that may be drafted for this, for Hassan Piker, it's just capitalists. That's that's it. That's what Angeles talked about. Capitalists are social murderers. So that's that's the list. So anybody who's a capitalist, you can whack them. I guess that's the communist ideology right there that is being mainstreamed and mainlined into the Democrat Party, and they have no natural immunity to it. Joey from Ashville says in the late nineties, while in graduate school at the University of Tennessee, fellow classmates, classmate was preaching from the River to the Sea, and when I challenged him to how many dead bodies that equalled, the response was, quote, not enough. Higher education is what we are up against. Mark says, I'm not the first to say it, but don't conflate education with intelligence. Yes, correct. The other thing I find humorous. I worked my entire career as an engineer with many engineering disciplines and computer scientists, most certified with pes and graduate degrees. We never spoke of someone being quote educated, We only spoke of how smart somebody was or was not. Whenever I hear someone using that word in an argument, I already realize how dumb they are. Yeah, and I don't. I've never liked this, this classification of the categories, like in polling when they say, you know, the more the more educated people think this and all that means is college degree. It doesn't mean you're actually more educated. It just means you started something, finished it, and accrued a bunch of debt. Like that's that's basically what it means now. Eric Ericsson, Oh, hang on a second. Eddie says the Democrats cannot get their house in order. They have let it go too far. At this point, they have to ride out the storm. Well we all do. So. Eric Erickson says. What we have is he's a talk show host out of Atlanta. He says, we have the assassination of Charlie Kirk, two assassination attempts on Donald Trump by known progressives, plus a third in Butler where the kid was clearly mentally ill. The attempted assassination of Brett Kavanaugh, the attempt on Josh Shapiro and his family, the attack on the Texas ice facility that left a police officer wounded, the attack on the McAllen, Texas ice facility that left three officers injured, the attack on the Dallas ice facility that left one dead and others critically wounded. And what CNN refers to as Representative Steve Scalise shot was actually a mass assassination attempt on twenty four Republican members of Congress in which four people, including Congressman Scalise, were shot by James Hodgkinson. I would add the murder of the National Guards woman, right, and the attempted murder of her fellow guardsmen in DC, remember that, and the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers. Right. These are all people, these attackers that were spouting out the standard Democrat media narratives. They're all saying the same stuff. And so at some point, guys you have to think, hmm, if what were saying, all the crazies keep saying too, are we playing some role in this? And the entries? Yes, so this is oh yeah, Hakeem Jeffries, who just last week, I think on Friday or something, said maximum warfare everywhere all the time. Right. He was then criticized for this after the attack at the White House Correspondence Association. So what does Hakeem Jeffries now have to say as. It relates to anything that has been said? Certainly as it relates to the comment related to maximum warfare everywhere, all the time in connection with the redistricting battle that Republicans launched, I stand by it. You can continue to criticize me for it. I don't give a damn about your criticism. So no toning down the okay, Just want to be clear there just sounds like that's a no from me. Dog No. The senior editor for Investigations at Fox News, Asra Nomani, asks the question where did Cole Allen learn to hate? A portrait emerges of a young man who went from being a bright, young, earnest inventor as a senior at cal Tech in twenty seventeen to an alleged assassin in twenty twenty six, parroting the rhetoric of anti Trump nonprofits. By the way, I've seen people questioning whether or not he was this bright, brilliant young inventor. The video that I watched from an old news story, his invention was like some PVC pipes that attached to. A wheelchair to make it not move. So I'm really sure that it didn't seem to be like a massive invention anyway. This what this guy wrote in his quote manifesto. He said, I'm no longer will I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and trader to coat my hands with his crimes. Nomani says, those words are very familiar to me. I have seen them shouted at No Kings rallies over the past year. See their graphic designs that the anti Trump nonprofits began back in twenty sixteen, continuing through today, even selling on their T shirts, you know, like an acronym for Trump, the T stands for trader, the R for rapist. You unfit M moron P pedophile. Right, So when you when you dehumanize somebody to this extent for this duration of time, then people will begin to not view that person as a human. This occurred in uh what was it? The uh was it? The su Dan. Darfour with the hutu Uh the with the yeah, the hutus and the tutsis right, and they I forget which group had control of like the radio stations, but they were broadcasting NonStop that this other uh, the other group of people were that they were cockroaches. That's what they kept calling them, in an effort to dehumanize. So when they then launched their attacks, people would be more willing to murder them with hatchets and such. That's the point of the strategy. This from Jeffrey Blair at National Review headlined the Left is lying to itself about the cost of its rhetoric. He calls the UH the attacker a California fail son, a heavily armed lunatic whose name sounds like like a shoe brand from the racks of Payless. And he was. Undone in the most zoomer way possible by his own unearned and undeserved belief in himself. But Jeffrey Blair goes on to say, what we do know is that the shooter was a progressive who hung out at Blue Sky, the social media platform, and he seems and you're, by the way, do you remember what happened to Parlor, Remember that platform that they like, Amazon took them off, the Internet took them completely down right. They got banned, blacklisted, all sorts of stuff. They were censored because why because some if I recall correctly, it was some Jay sixers who were using the platform in lieu of Twitter, because Twitter at that time was still controlled by the progressive Moonbad Brigade, and they were sent all sorts of conservatives and they were like, well, if you don't like it, then just set up your own Twitter, just set up your own company, do your own app. And so they did. And then remember Congressman Dan Bishop like donated five hundred dollars. Or no, that was gab. That was another one, right, another platform that conservatives tried to go out and start up, and then of course became infested with these trolls and and all the frog people and. Stuff, the groypers and such. So that was what conservatives were dealing with before Elon Musk bought Twitter. And when Elon bought Twitter, the original founder of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, then created Blue Sky, where all the leftists moved. And if you go over to Blue. Sky and you say something like there are only two sexes, you will be banned, like immediately, okay, it is a And it's hilarious because every now and again I see some people who were little darlings of the left for the last decade and they're getting booted off a Blue Sky because they they cross some progressives on you know, one they disagree on one issue, then they get banned. And the erosion of audience or users, I should say on Blue Sky is it is a constant downward trend, because that's kind of the that's kind of what happens over there. They become they kick out anybody that disagrees with them, nobody is allowed to offer any other opinions inside of the echo chamber, and then you have an erosion of users, and then it just becomes a ghost town and it's boring, so he says. Jeffrey Blair says the shooter was a progressive hung out on Blue Sky, seems to have been radicalized into committing violence by the panic and apocalypticism common in such spaces. In his manifesto, he accuses Trump of being a pedophile, clearly echoing years of careless democratic rhetoric, and labeled his administration's members as targets. He goes on to say it is desperately tiresome to watch the left disown the shooter while it refuses to acknowledge how freely insults and claims like Trump may be a pedophile rapist have flowed from their own mouths. It's gotten to the point where the specific line as a phrase of casual abuse has simply dissolved into the ocean of political rhetoric in which we float nowadays. But there is little to say in favor of a wild, reckless lie intended to inflame. He says. Most people who hate Trump know this lie isn't true. It just feels so good to hurl such a nasty accusation. But fringe types take those charges absolutely seriously, and now we see where that line of rhetoric can lead. It might have seemed like an easy play to make hay out of the Trump administration's cachanded fumbling of the Epstein files and squeeze whatever possible marginal electoral advantage out of it. As they say, politics ain't beanbag. But we should have known that in the modern era, mad men can be easily stirred with fantasy narratives. How quickly some have forgotten about Pizzagate. On the bright side, nobody's talking about the straight up word moves anymore. So there is that. Got a message from Russ who says, Pete, you keep mentioning the unstable nutballs who may be listening. And today I'm feeling a little targeted with that. That's not my intention, not my intention, Russ not you. Well maybe then there is this Anna Navarro on the view This was right after, like this was yesterday, So the day after the shooting. This is what Anna Navarro, former Republican strategy right, this is what she this is her hot take on. But you know now that so that room was full of some of the most important political leaders in the country. Right now, now they know they've lived in their own flesh, the fear that our school children go through. Now they know what it's like to have to jump under a table, the way that school children jump under a desk, and we are a country that is vulnerable to this. We've now seen shootings in malls and churches, in temples and walmarts, and so you know it's I still don't understand how Congress took no action after Sandy Hook, after twenty children between the ages of six and seven were killed. But maybe now that they. Have felt the fear themselves, they will do something. Understand the crowd goes wild? Yes? Does that? Does that line of argument sound familiar? It should We just went through an election where Democrats voted for a guy who said, I mean, granted in a little bit more graphic terms, but it's the same thing, right, j Jones. The Virginia Ag. Or the vaag, or as I call it, the I call it the vaag. Actually, now that I think about it, yeah, I call it the vaag. That's it, okay. The Attorney General Jay Jones, remember text did one of his legislative colleagues at the time fantasizing about the Speaker of the House having his children murdered in his wife's arms. So then then he would know what it's like, and so then he would, you know, adopt all of the gun control policies that the Democrats want. That's what she's saying. It's like they can't help themselves. They cannot help themselves from like this hope that if I can just commit enough violence, or if somebody else could commit enough violence on these Republicans, then they would bend to our will. They never stop and think apparently that like the reasons why Republicans don't agree with you on a lot of your gun grabbing measures is because they have a principled stand. It is a principal disagreement with you about the Second Amendment. If you want to look at securing schools, Republicans have offered all sorts of ways to do that, but you don't want to do those things either. And the Conservatives assume that you're opposing their reform ideas based on your principles. That's our assumption, but you don't afford us that right. You ascribe motive to us to say that we want kids to be dead. Like I've said this before, when you present somebody, in this case Donald Trump, as you know Hitler, when you frame him like that and you keep this drumbeat going, he's a dictator, he's an authoritarian. He's not going to give up power, even though he did, and there's actually evidence of that. But whatever, like you keep on hammering away setting up concentration camps. He's killing all these people, he's doing all these terrible things. You are essentially constructing the philosophical question of if you could get in a time machine and go back in time, would you kill baby Hitler. That's an entire philosophical debate that occurs where you test all these different philosophies and theories and ethics and all sorts of stuff, and you have a lot of people that say, yes, you would go back and do that. And so if I'm presenting to you this person who is now the modern incarnation, that's the fire you are playing with. And I don't think everybody is ignorant of that. Meanwhile, the RNC has been circulating an old clip of my good friend Ray Kuttamloose Cooper running for US Senate. Now, this was back when he was governor of North Carolina and he was campaigning for Biden and or Harris. I'm not really sure when this occurred because it could have been like the first run Biden Harris, but he wasn't in a basement. He was at an event that was during COVID, so it had to have been in the re election cycle before Biden dropped out. Donald Trump is a significant threat to our democracy and our nation, and we had to stop him. You know, Donald Trump wants to make his frey by in stalin himself as a dictator, but Joe Biden and Pamala Harris would rather make history with their extraordinary accomomists for the American Immagle. Okay, so Roy Cooper on the campaign trail saying Donald Trump is a significant threat to our democracy and our nation. He's a threat to the nation. Do you know how many people on the right thought the same thing of Barack Obama? And you know what they didn't do. Yeah, let me see. I got a message from Dina who says, the same people who say J six was one of the worst days in our history for what amounted to trespassing vigilanteism are now defending outright assassination versus seeking illegal recourse. Yeah. Yeah, for all of their invocations of January sixth, they sure do have no problem with certain kinds of violence because it's see again, it's relativism. The standard doesn't exist. They don't hold a standard that you shouldn't do this as I did when I when I argued against the J sixers, and I said what they did was unacceptable, inappropriate. Anybody that engaged in violence needs to be charged, go to jail. That's a standard, and I apply that standard across the board. They cite J six in an appeal to that standard that they themselves do not hold. Therein lies the problem because it's relativists, right, It's all relative. There is no objective truth, no objective truth no standards. All right, that'll do it for this episode. Thank you so much for listening.
