And then having a government between the UK and the US that's pretty on the same page about everything. And then you have Israel in the Middle East. And then you have, you know, all of these, you know, disparate areas that we kind of control through economic means or military means and stuff like that. And then you have outliers. You have China, Iran, Russia, you know, whatever.
People that haven't gotten the memo for whatever reason. I don't want to live in any of those places. That's the argument. They'll go, well, do you want to live in? Shut up. That's what are we, idiots? I don't want to live in any of those places, but they didn't get the memo. And then in all of these countries, by the way, in Europe, in America, not so much Israel.
They don't love the immigration, as we can see. They're kind of big on the borders, Israel. They like the borders. But in America and Europe and Scandinavia and all these countries, the populations were just told to accept massively high levels of immigration over a very short period of time. That's odd, right? That doesn't make any sense.
And if you point that out, you're called a racist and extremist. And that's a very strange thing. What are you doing with all these people? The Biden administration brought in 10 million people over four years. What are they here for? There's not enough jobs for the people that are here. We have vast chasms of wealth and equality. We have AI coming. We have automation coming.
Why would you bring in all of these people? What are you trying to do? What do you think they're trying to do? I think that exactly what I said. I think they need... bodies. I think they need cannon fodder. I think they need to break the idea of any social bonds that exist between people.
They need a little chaos.
Yeah, you bring in people, more surveillance, more dependence on the government. You get people out of the idea. You know, they got people out of the idea years ago that you could barely, you can't really, it's very hard to have your own business now. They've pretty much extinguished that in people's heads, even though there are people that still do it.
Now I think they're going to start to extinguish the idea that you can have a home, that you can own property, that you can drive a car, that you can do all of these things. They're going to extinguish that idea, and they're going to do that because why not control everybody?
Yeah. That's the thing. Why not control everybody?
Yeah. So they're basically like, we got to pacify these people. The conflicts seem inevitable and we're going to have to fight these wars. The good news is a lot of the people who are doing this, their children are now doing stand-up comedy. So if they're unable. Are any of them any good? If they're, I think some of them. I'm sure. I'm sure. Have you seen any of them that are any good?
I haven't seen a ton. It's just, it's one of those things that you hear now more than ever. When you're talking to a young comic and they go, and I'm hanging out with this person. I go, yeah. And they go, and their dad owns this. You go, really?
Just a curious thing. Obviously anyone in the world should be able to do comedy as much as they want But it's funny to me as somebody who just looked at these configurations of power and wealth It's kind of interesting that a lot of these kids are like doing it's just fun Have you ever met anybody from a really wealthy background that was good at stand-up? No, I mean not there. Yes.
Yeah, there are some of them for sure You've met them I've not met them. They probably don't like me. They're like unicorns. Yeah, they're around. And yes, yes, very wealthy. But I'm talking about like weird kind of interesting levels of wealth and power. That's interesting. Yeah. That's super interesting to me. It is.
But so the good news is if they can't get this done soon their kids won't because their kids will be at fucking Sidesplitters in Tampa or they'll be podcasting or they'll be podcasting.
Yeah, they'll get together Isn't it funny how much they now they now focus really on podcasters But they ignore all the things all the people that we're talking about the content know that there's no They don't report on any of those people.
Again, the people that seem to be running and owning all of our resources. You'd think someone would write about the people that own a lot of the resources on the planet we live.
No. Did you see that, Jamie? I didn't see that.
That got lost in the shuffle.
The manipulation of time and space.
No, I think he's saying that you're able to do things... Instantaneously.
