I'm trying to live a completely Google-free life, so I avoid YouTube.

Two different ones:

1. my own email server at patrick.net (I'm a programmer, so I set it up myself)

2. a backup email at protonmail.com

Copy paste the link via youtube downloader site or Download helper via your Web browser add-on. Bypasses all the ADs and rips the video source from the page itself.

Good idea. It is very intrusive!

Right, you skip the YouTube ads as well.

OTOH, you still get Tucker's in-line ads for coffee etc, but TBH I don't really mind those.

I remember when Glenn Greenwald interviewed Tucker Carlson after he was fired from Fox, it was a very friendly exchange. As someone said, if these two were the Left and the Right in the U.S., things would turn out fine.

The Left left many of us behind when they went full on neocon warmongering, anti-white discrimination, child abusing sexual surgeries, mandated vaccinations, persecution of some protestors (eg J6) but not others (eg BLM), weaponization of CIA and FBI, etc. Dems championed incompetence, pedophiles, censorship, racism against whites and illegal immigration. Greenwald is awesome and a liberal in the real sense of listening and debating; the Dems are far from liberal in the classical sense of the word.

On his very first day in office on Jan 20, 2021 Biden issued an Executive Order for all government agencies to be committed to “Equity” aka race based Equal Outcomes and we’ve now reached the point where even our medical schools are being dumbed down to achieve this. No society can survive this level of stupidity and flat out insanity. Thank God Trump won. One of the first things he did was to issue an Executive Order to reverse this idiocy: “End DEl hiring practices in the federal government, merit only.”

“Editor’s Note: America is at war. This is not a traditional war, fought on a battlefield against an external enemy. It is a civilizational conflict against an internal enemy: the group quota regime, a revolutionary threat that seeks to reorganize American society around the principle of outcome equality — what the regime’s partisans call “equity.”

“This cold civil war may go unnoticed by many day-to-day, but its stakes are often as high as life and death. Here, Roger B. Cohen, a celebrated oncologist and professor in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, explains how the group quota regime has taken hold of the American medical education system and asks urgent questions about the consequences for medicine, for the sick, and for the country.”

“The End of Merit in Med Schools Will Be Deadly.”

Real Clear Politics. Roger Cohen. Apr 2, 2024

The past few years could be summed up as the political education of the tech bros. They are slowly learning (and getting schooled). The problem is that their mistakes are our problems with that amount of wealth.

Next step, the spiritual education of the tech bros, before it's too late.

Don't follow Tucker, but did read the transcript of his Putin interview. Brilliant. Tucker let Putin spin a narrative that made Putin appear self-serving, rather than Putin serving the Russian public.

Plastics is the big issue in the US and the world, the "issues" that Tucker addresses in the above interviews are some of the smokescreens that help divert the public's attention from plastics.

Bottled water and other liquids in a plastic container, as well as many foodstuffs, transmit the nano-plastic particles into your body and your family's, as well. Your body mostly accumulates the plastic particles, rather than cleansing, and the accumulation of plastic nano-particles causes many health problems, to include enlarged prostrates that cause older men to get up to urinate many times per night. Women and children are also affected, but the plastic containers really help the bottom line of the corporations because the containers are inexpensive.

The by-products of the processes for producing plastics are toxic to the waterways, which is our source of fresh water. Dumping the by-products or used containers into saltwater oceans is also poisoning the food chain. Simply, even the nano-plastic particles don't biodegrade in our bodies, oceans, fresh water, or soil. The used containers don't biodegrade, and recycling results in more by-products.

Glass containers for liquids or other foodstuffs were fine containers--that is what I grew up on-but they are more expensive to produce.

Plastics, rather than nuclear weapons, may be what eventually ruins the earth and the species.

Plastics is one of the many issues leading us to our ruin. This is why we need AI. Only AI will be powerful enough to help us deal with all of our out of control problems rapidly taking us to the abyss.

Is there actually such a thing as the Free World. Most of the traditional members of that group have sunk to some form of totalitarianism with worse in the offing. Here in the US we have gotten a reprieve but the battle continues. But who are we supposed to lead. In addition, the former Free World, including the US have an existential demographic crisis.

Richard?! It’s not even been 5!days and you’re already losing positivity? C’mon man. Btw - saw A Complete Unknown movie twice now with family. I highly recommend it to you. Portrays Dylan, his girl friend Susie, Woody Guthre, Joan Baez, Pete Seeger and more.

I don't know if it is the movie but Dylan was introduced to weed by a country singer (Ian Tyson). I always though Dylan was born smoking a joint.

Eric Adames looks desperate trying to find new friends when Democrats threw him under the bus after the indictments. Snakes never die they slither to new havens for protection.

What else do you call a person who is under federal indictment for crimes than starts to change his political ideology just "coincidentally" right after Trump takes office?

I think he knows unless he sides with Trump he is screwed and is just trying to save his skin.

He’s not changing his political ideology. He’s just pointing out the fact that the democrat’s commitment to open borders is destroying his city. I recently saw video of Eric Adams saying that NYC now has over 220,000 migrants and has spent $6.4B taking care of them. This is insane. This is what got him indicted by your despicably evil democrats. It’s not that the democrats have a different ideology. It’s that they have become flat out insane. This is what you lack the ability to understand.

They always do its a running joke on people who say the party left them then you compare records than they say we learned from mistakes. He already shifted right on rent control and overall cuts recently.

All he explained is that he’s a typically deranged democrat who likes open borders and likes the war on meritocracy which is being replaced by equity aka race based equal outcomes. All the former leftists like Elon, Glenn Greenwald and even Sasha say that they did not leave the left. The left left them and has become quite destructively insane. This is what Chamath was explaining during this entire interview.

Not to mention RFK and Tulsi. We need more or at least tactical alliance with leftist figures.

You were great in the conversation with Jeff Wells. Learned more about film in that podcast than a semester in film class.
