We can all sleep a little easier tonight knowing that the government has finally
become our single source of truth.
Take everything else with a grain of salt, no more need for messy
investigative journalism, because the government will tell you all the
information that you need to know.
And with that great news.
Expert doctors have come out with some new safety guidelines
when it comes to COVID-19.
That includes no more bare bottom farting.
Yes, no more bare bottom flatulence.
It is a super spreading event, but the question that everyone is truly asking
is what is the price that you and I and our children will end up paying
over the next 20 years for the previous months of lockdown and isolation.
Hey, it's Lucas Skrobot and you're listening to the Lucas Skrobot
show where we uncover purpose, pursue truth and own the future
episode 243, July 25th the evening.
And so I, 25th, 2021 coming to you from the beautiful heart of the middle east.
Yeah.
As I said in the beginning, we have some new safety regulations recommendations,
uh, no more bare bottom farting.
I don't know if you remember, but back in the beginning stages of the
pandemic, there was a well-documented case in Hong Kong in this, uh, cooped
up isolated, uh, quarantined apartment building where COVID spread from one
apartment to the next department via the plumbing via the sewage line.
And there was a, a, a dried up, you bend where it's supposed to have water.
So the air can't come through, but that you been had dried up, the cap was broken.
And so there was, you know, WAFs of sewage air floating into, um, the individual's
apartment and they got COVID from the sewage line because you know, it, it
sheds in, uh, you know, when you, when you go to the bathroom, it's in there.
There has been other evidence that the lavatories bathrooms
are also super spreader events.
There was a G Gina nonvocal linked tracing connection between two individuals
in a lavatory cubicle in Australia.
You mean it passed from one cubicle to the next cubicle via gas.
With that, you know, new safety precautions, no more bare
bottom farting here is Dr.
Norman Swan with just that wise wise advice.
So I think that we should do in terms of social distancing and being safe, is
that a policy on the part of the entire Australian population should be that
you don't fart close to other people and that you don't fart with your bottom?
Yeah.
Don't far close to other people don't fart with your bottom bear.
I mean, for starters, uh, sounds like, it sounds like this is what you're missing.
Should have taught you, you know, you shouldn't pass gas
near other people anyways.
And with that, you have to realize it makes you think, man, if, if you
are passing gas near other people and you can smell that methane coming
through your, your, your nice denims and your boxer briefs or whatever
you happen to be wearing down there, you know, those two, three layers of
clothing, well that you can, that this is going straight, that methane gas.
Is going straight in your nostrils.
That is a super spreader event and no bare bottom farting, uh, you know,
no bare faced breathing seems to be the, the logical conclusion there.
But obviously, obviously, if you didn't get it, Dr.
Norman Swan is joking.
He's making a joke.
It's a hyperbole.
Kids don't worry.
But yeah, you know, it's not that it's not that far off from, uh, from realities,
from some of the things that are actually being said that are not jokes.
I think this was a, a great joke by Dr.
Norman Swan, which this clip actually came from an ABC podcast
back from, uh, 2020, April of 2020.
So it's not necessarily new news.
Uh, but it's definitely funny news, but this is new new use new news from
new south Wales, Australia with Dr.
Kerry chant, who is the chief health officer there.
We have to stop the spread of COVID to do this.
We all need to work together.
We need to limit our mood.
We need to consider whenever we leave our house, that anyone with us in
anyone we come into contact with could
convey, ah, there it is anyone that we could come into contact with.
When you go outside the house, it is a dangerous place.
I, outside that house, it is a dangerous place.
Anyone that you come in contact with, they could be the enemy.
They could have the virus be afraid.
Don't talk to people, don't even get eye contact.
Don't even go to the loo because you know, people are fluctuating
up a storm in there, and that is a super spreading location.
Be afraid of people don't trust people.
What is that doing to art psychology?
What is that doing to society?
Living in a world where we have distressed.
For every individual in front of us, the atomization of society
that takes place, she goes on
whilst it is human nature, to engage in conversation with others to be friendly.
Um, unfortunately this is not the time to do that.
So even if you run into your next door neighbor in the shopping center,
in the Cole's washer at Kohl's wars or Aldi or any other grocery shop,
don't start off a conversation.
Now is the time for minimizing your interactions with others.
Even if you've got a mask, do not think that affords total protection.
We want to be absolutely sure that as we go about our daily lives,
we do not come into contact with anyone else that would pose a
risk.
As we go about our daily lives.
You want to make sure that we don't come into contact with anyone that could pose
a risk, a couple, a couple things to note.
If you're, if you're watching the, the bloke standing behind this
lovely lady is fiddling with then touching his mask and touching it
and touching it and touching it.
And this is the exact reason that your doctor Carrie is saying, even
if you have a mask you're not safe.
It's because when we wear masks, if we're not wearing them properly incorrectly,
that is putting them on and not touching our face ever or not touching our mask
ever, then it, it, it's not going to be very effective in preventing the spread.
And she says, even if you have a mask on, don't talk to someone, don't even talk to
your neighbor, don't share information.
Don't connect.
Don't be human isolate, isolate.
This is not the time to be trusting one another.
Who should we trust?
Then you should trust the
government.
You should trust the government.
And also if you do, you need to talk to someone, do it over the
phone, or do it over the internet.
We can sufficiently track everything that you say, everything that you do to make
sure that you're following and thinking exactly the way that we want you to be
thinking this week, last week, excuse me.
You may have seen that.
The big news story that broke on Pegasus Pegasus is an NSO
owned company out of Israel.
And it it's.
It is a government spyware device.
That works.
It works specifically.
Well, because you don't need to send a malicious link.
Oftentimes hackers can access your phone via a malicious link.
They send you a link, you click on it and boom, your device is infected.
But this Pegasus software is able to infect phones with just
a missed call or without having you having to accept anything.
And it gets into your phone and it can see every, every text that
you've sent, every video that you've received or made every voicemail
that you meant, uh, ever received.
Every communication, anything that you've ever done on your phone, same thing
with computers, they're not secure.
This, the one narrative that I've heard around this, and this is not a
main point into this today's episode, but one narrative I have heard around
this is, you know, in this link, there was a 50,000 phone number list that
was leaked out to, uh, to the public.
And the question is, well, who, who leaked that information who leaked that data?
Because this is not something new.
At first, when I heard the story, I was like, wow, this is fascinating.
This is crazy.
The spine that's going on.
The corporate espionage, that's going on that the NSO selling this to governments
all across the world, but this is not new, this sort of spine, this sort of
government access to all of our phones.
It is data.
China's doing it, America's doing it.
Russia's probably doing it every other country from here to there, corporate
espionage to, to government espionage is happening and it has been happening.
And I think most people recognize, we know that big tech is doing it,
selling our, uh, our macro data to, to two credit card companies or credit
card companies selling it to market.
Our data is out there.
It's for sale.
And so when you follow the money, well, who may be exposed the PSU benefits
from the exposure of the Pegasus group?
Well, it's other companies who also have spyware devices who are
also selling them to governments.
This surely isn't the end.
Now I understand why we would be upset.
That journalists and that, that members of society are being
spied on by, by governments.
I understand why that's upsetting and illegal, but it's certainly not something
new, but it only further drives the point that that is being made here from
this clip with Kerry chant, which is if we're not connecting in-person, if we
can't build that trust within to face relationships, and we're forced to do
it over the phone, and if we can't do it over the phone and we don't have trust
there either, because anything that we say can and will be used against, I
mean, do you, do you remember how a lady in Australia was arrested last year?
Because she posted on Facebook that she was planning on attending an event, which
would, uh, break, uh, COVID protocol.
We know that it's been happening.
We know that it happens.
So why are we one surprised on the Pegasus thing and what is, what are
the ramifications that we are going to end up seeing from the isolation, from
the mistrust of, of everyone when we're walking on the street and we can't even
talk to our neighbor when this is what's being told, what happens to society?
What price will we end up paint?
Well, there was a report done by KFF health tracking poll on the,
the mental impact of isolation and lockdowns that is having on the public.
And the report showed that the average adult.
The average household in from January to June of 2019, this data comes from
the N H I S was 11%, 2019, 11% of the population had anxiety disorder or, and or
depressive disorder that compares to 2021.
We're 41% in January, 2021 41% of respondents said that they had anxiety
disorder or depressive disorder.
That is the 300%, three fold increase from 11% to 41% in a matter of a year.
What is the, what are the repercussions from anxiety, depression?
What are the repercussions of society and our children at
large being cooped up in a home.
Now that the study goes on to write about how during the pandemic a larger
than average share of young adults, 18 to 24 reported symptoms of anxiety and
or depression or depressive disorder, 56% of young adults, the experienced
suicidal thoughts, 26% and reported substance abuse, 25% across the globe.
We're seeing substance abuse, suicidal thoughts, depression,
anxiety, skyrocket, due to the isolation that we're all experiencing.
And with that is coming loss of life it's loss of life.
And we know that isolation is extremely damaging to the human psyche that we
put the worst of the worst criminals in solitary confinement because
of what it does to them mentally.
The interrogation and torture methods that they used in the
gulags in the USSR use isolation.
They isolate them for weeks, the torture that they would do to break
someone psychologically unthinkable, the stories that are told.
And yet here we are.
As this society at large being placed in nearly solitary confinement.
For some people, it is solitary confinement, unable to go to
work, unable to leave their house.
Now, praise God, things are in some areas beginning to lift.
Some places are pretty much free, but there's other places across the
world like in Australia right now it's segments of Australia that is not free.
There are still in their homes.
So what are the effects of prolonged isolation?
Well, in 1972, there's a French adventure, adventurer and scientist, Michael Sefer.
He famously shut himself in a cave in Texas for more than six months to
do a number of different experience.
One to study what the effects of isolation would be another to study
his, his sleep cycle and how our body has a natural clock within it,
where you don't need the sun, but in those six months, He S he meticulous,
meticulous asleep, documented the effects that isolation had on his mind.
And he wrote that he could, after five months, he could, after
a couple months, excuse me, he could string thoughts together.
By month five was reportedly so desperate for company that he tried
unsuccessfully to the friend, a mouse.
Now this article comes from science magazine and they right.
Many studies have found that chronic social isolation is indeed
associated with cognitive decline.
And that isolation then proceeds declined by several years.
What that sentence means is when we are in chronic isolation, like
the globe has been many sections of the globe for the last 18 months.
We don't see the effect of the cognitive decline.
That is this happening right now, several years from now.
And one, 2013 study, for example, they measured the current, did the function at
two time points in a cohort of more than 6,000 older adults, the visuals, they
reported that people who had fewer social interactions and activity at the beginning
of the study showed greater decline in cognitive function and measured verbal
fluency and memory recall tasks after four years, what is happening to our glow?
What is happening to the humanity, to our children, to you and I from
isolation, from being locked up, what is the cost that we are paying?
We're losing our cognitive ability slowly but surely our children are losing.
Months and years of education and social interaction and engagement,
suicide rates are, are through the roof among kids, young kids,
staggering mounts of depression, alcohol abuse, drug abuse, even among
well high performing professionals.
They've seen a rise in drug abuse and overdoses.
Now the, the excess deaths that we will end up seeing in the next 15 to 20 years
from the economic decisions that we made in this, in this whole fiasco, that
alone, just from the economic, the, the access morbidity from the unemployment.
An economic shock in America is going to be staggering, some
estimates 0.2 0.842 1.22 million.
So 840,000 to 1.2, 2 million access deaths over the next 15 to 20 years.
Definitely.
And that's just, that's just, just America.
So if we extrapolate that to the rest of the world, which has seen far, far
more, more unemployment for more loss of income and already at far greater risk
for, uh, for excess death or morbidities, if we, if we just take the same rate
and extrapolate it across the world in the next 15 to 20 years, not from
COVID, but from the decisions that we made during this time, as, as a society.
Whether that was within our power without of our power.
But as a collective responsibility, we will see 20 400 million or
more access deaths worldwide.
Another study shows that that research shows that for every $50,000 increase of
income that you have as an individual, your risk of death lowers by five, 5%.
So money doesn't solve everything, money isn't necessarily going to.
Solve all your problems or make you happy or make you avoid death.
But having 50,000 more dollars in income
will
reduce your risk of death by 5% and increase your life span.
So what does that mean now?
That that we have witnessed the greatest transfer of wealth from the
middle class and the lower class to the upper-class in the shortest period
of time, the middle class has shrunk.
Small businesses have closed here in the middle east.
I'm told that here, where we live in, in Oman, upwards to a million
ex-pats have left, lost their jobs.
Pilots have lost their jobs, unemployment bounding across the globe.
What does that do to our morbidity?
And to death rates going on in the future is the cost benefit worth it?
Well, here is professor Michael CHODOs ski, who is a award-winning author
and professor of economics at the university of Ottawa and the founder
and director of the center of research for globalization and Montreal.
Here is, uh, Michael talking about how, what we are going to see and have seen
is not an effect, uh, uh, a by-product of the virus, but it's a by-product of
an economic decision that was made by ruling elites that has having, having,
and will have grave impacts on society
on March 11, 2 20.
With some exceptions, some hundred and 19 member states of the United nations.
They endorsed the Corona locked down and they closed down their national economy.
And that was presented as a solution to a public health crisis.
Now, remember at the beginning, that's what happened that the
solution to a public health crisis was closed the economy.
Even though we know that if we close the economy, we are going to see these
excess debts and we're going to pay for it years down the line, but we're in
this cost benefit scenario, but he goes
on, uh, this decision immediately led to mass unemployment, impoverishing,
large sectors of the weld population.
In other words, the instructions, which emanated from the financial establishment
was essentially to close down the real economy of planet earth and.
Uh, that engineered economic depression was more serious than any other previous
crises or depressions going back to 1929, which was the wall street crash.
In other words, this was an act of economic and social warfare, which was
presented to public opinion as a means to save lives, but it didn't save lives.
In fact, it impoverished people and in some countries they were
famines and it certainly had an impact on mortality and morbidity.
It was posed, it was posed to us.
Back in the beginning when all of this began, okay, can, if we can close down for
15 days, we can enable hospitals to not have a flood of patients and we can slow.
We can flatten out that curve.
Well, that has compounded and compounded over the last 18 months to
two we're so far beyond that point.
And yet this solution in many places still tends to be okay, we're going
to, we're going to have a lockdown because that's the only way that we
know how to control movement control, control the virus, even though the w
H O set themselves, Hey, lockdown is not the best way to control this thing.
And there has, there, there needs to come a point in society like they did
in Singapore, where, where we say.
We have to learn how to live with this.
We can not continue putting our children and our livelihood at risk and putting
millions of lives on the line for access deaths in, in the coming years.
As you said in this clip, there have been famines that have broken
out across the world from this.
What are the impacts of those families?
There've been the UN said there has been at least 25 famines and developing
countries, the right hunger, thirteens disor at devastating levels in 25
countries in the coming months due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic
and the decisions that were made from
the
ruling elite to push this forward.
No, th as I said, there's been the greatest transfer of wealth in history.
So there is financial incentives, financial incentives to keep this
ball rolling, but not everyone is very excited about it in France.
Over the weekend, thousands of people gathered to March against
the, the, the vaccine passport, the health passport in order to get into
places and use public transport.
And in Australia, thousands went out to the streets to protest as well.
Here in this clip, you can see, uh, you can see hundreds in the clip and
a man being arrested by police and the group shouting you work for us.
You serve us
and it's true.
Are are, are governmental rulers.
Those who have been put into power, whether whether by election or not
election, they are in place, godly rulers are in place to serve their people.
Uh, the law enforcement is in place to insert to serve.
Now there's a level here of, of, yeah.
In this clip of the chanting you serve us.
It's like, well, yes, but you also elected people to run your
country and vote, and you entrusted your country to those people.
And they're trying to make the best decisions for you.
Now.
Also here's another clip from Dan Andrews, who is the premier of Victoria.
And a member of the Australian labor party since 2010 in Victoria.
And here's a great, a great little soundbite by him.
Okay.
Seriously.
I'm like mysterious.
I don't know what half of them are protesting against.
Well, a lot of them think, well, good on them, except it's useless.
I don't know if you caught that, but he says, I don't know what
they're protesting against.
Then the reporter fires back here.
It is, you says, you know, half of them are protesting against and
he's like, well, well good on them.
But, but, but it's illegal.
It's like, okay.
Yes.
But do, do we remember how woke this virus is?
It is so woke.
It knows when you're protesting for something good and something bad
across the globe with BLM, we saw.
Protests.
And I defended the right to protest.
I said, it's great.
They should, they all should have the right to go out and protest virus or no
virus, but there is a totalitarian, a hypocrisy and tyranny when, if you're
going out to protest well, that's okay.
And that's not a super spreader event, but if you're gathering in your church
or your synagogue or mosque in America and the west, or even in Australia, well,
that is, that is a super spreader event.
That is something that, you know, you can't do at one point, at least,
I believe in America, you were not allowed to gather and have a barbecue
with more than 12 people at your house.
And yet if you're on the street protesting the guidelines where you could have
a hundred people and that's fine.
Well, why, why, why the difference.
Well, if you're, if you're protesting for racial quality,
social justice, well that's okay.
But nothing else, if you're protesting the fact that you're not allowed to
protest, like they were in the UK, the UK made a law and said, no, because of
this, you're not allowed to protest.
And what did we see?
We saw people protesting the protest and it's because we believe something.
We believe that we have been given inalienable rights.
We believe as humans, we have God given rights that should not be infringed
upon that our liberties should not be infringed upon, but what happens,
what happens when a society on a macro at whole has no longer believes in
God, no longer believes in the devil.
But believes that we came out of the marsupial swamps from millions and
millions of years ago, we weren't created with intelligent design.
We aren't any more special a tree or a frog or a, uh, a rock for that matter.
We're just all matter floating through the world.
And when, when we lose that moral bearing that moral plum line, knowing
that there are divine and eternal laws and natural laws that, that dif
bend human life and defend our rights when we can no longer point to that.
Then we can no longer have a moral bearing and a moral grounding on what is a,
just, or an unjust law because laws and regulations, whether it's, you're not
allowed to murder, you're not allowed to steal, or you must wear a seatbelt.
Those, all right, come back down to morality.
All legislation, all laws find its foundation in morality.
And all of our morality comes from the way that we view ultimately the way that
we view who we are as human beings and where we come from, what is our origin?
Because if we are just a sack of chemicals, if we are just a sack of
chemicals, then it doesn't matter.
Then, then you know, ethically, why not do some organ harvesting?
Why not lock up a bunch of people that we feel are genetically.
Uh, uh, less than us and put them in concentration camps.
Why not try to have eugenics and, and create, uh, a superhuman race?
Why not fully race transhumanism?
Why not?
If we are just a clump of cells wise, if we believe that we were created with,
from a divine being with purpose, then we can find a, a, a routine, a grounding in
something that we can point to and say, this is actually, this is actually wrong.
This is an infringement upon our human freedoms.
The fact of this clip with, uh, Dan Andrews.
So funny, he's like, I don't even know what they're protesting.
They're protesting the fact that they're being locked up.
They're protesting the fact that their liberties are being infringed upon.
With these draconian measures and lockdowns there in Australia.
Well, it gets better.
The prime minister of New Zealand Jacinda ardent said set
a real shocker to the media.
This last week.
We'll
share with you the most up-to-date information daily.
You can trust us as a source of that information.
Uh, you can also trust the director general of health and the ministry of
health for that information do feel free to visit at any time to clarify any rumor
you make here COVID-19 dot gov T dot INSEAD, otherwise dismiss anything else.
We will continue to be your single source of truth.
We will provide information frequently.
We will.
We will continue to be your single source of truth.
If you hear anything from anyone else, dismiss it, dismiss any information
that you might hear, we will be your single source of truth on this.
Now I'm going to give the, the devil's advocate here.
I do think that she's speaking to a specific case.
I do think she's speaking to, uh, rumors that were happening about
potential lockdowns, uh, that were happening in New Zealand.
And this is why I think that because of the, the rest of the clip, he
listened to the, the rest of the clip,
everything you out on us, you see, um, a grain of salt.
And so I really ask people to focus on those.
The greatest example of that
appears to be this tips, which originated in the ledger and has
kind of, has become a viral hope for Australia and New Zealand.
How responsible is it?
The people that are sharing that news of a lockdown eminent in new?
Yeah.
So the question was from the reporter, uh, was about a, a rumor that was
started in Malaysia spread via probably WhatsApp and the internet.
Saying that there was going to be a lockdown in New Zealand.
And that was, you know, disinflation and misinformation,
which seems like it probably was.
But listen, this is a brilliant, brilliant response, uh, by the prime minister.
And look, that's
the
kind of thing that adds to the anxiety that people feel.
So I continue to share the message.
New Zealand is, must prepare, but do not panic
prepare, but do not panic.
In other words, it's just a rumor.
Uh, don't listen to that.
Those, these are the exact things that are causing everyone, anxiety and stress.
But I will say this prepare, but don't panic.
It sounds to me.
I mean, it sounds to me like she's saying, yeah, that rumor about lockdown.
It's not true, but you definitely should get ready for
a lockdown because it's coming.
Obviously that's reading between the lines, obviously
that might not be true, but.
No wonder people are anxious and worried.
Yeah.
And when you see those messages for a member that unless you hear
from us, um, it is not the truth,
unless you hear it from us, it is not the truth.
Now, if it's concerning curfew hours or saying that a lockdown has started, okay.
Yeah, you should probably get that from your municipality or your government
of where you live, but there's so much more information out there that maybe
isn't a hundred percent accurate.
We ask people
just visit, um, uh, COVID-19 dot gov T during feed.
It has all of the up-to-date information and we will continue to
provide everything you need to know.
You will continue to provide everything that you need to know.
We know how that turned out though.
Remember when the, who was providing everything that we
needed to know, and they said, don't worry about wearing masks.
And then.
Ah, now you need to wear a mask.
And then it was, uh, those PCR tests.
They need to be spunk, you know, and cycled over 35
times up to 50 and 60 times.
And then they come out and say, actually, if you do that, If he, then the test
is inaccurate and we need to dismiss those or retest all of the previous 14
months to findings because, you know, we, we over tested over spun dose.
We saw back and forth.
We, we need to, to have global lockdowns, not gloss lockdowns don't work.
Nope.
This was not originated in a lab.
If you say that that's disinformation governments across the globe, that's
disinformation misinformation.
We can't have that Zena phobic.
And then here it turns out, ah, it probably was created in the Wu Han lab.
And on top of it, it seems as if information is coming out, that the
gain of function was paid for by us tax dollars, everything that we were told.
By the government, your single source of truth, everything that was canceled
and labeled misinformation and disinformation for months and months
on end and has been overturned or come to light that actually all these
people that we labeled as being wrong.
Well, we were just trying to delay the inevitable.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, that's right.
And it startling when in 2004, in 2004, there were a hundred corporations
controlling media outlets across the map 100, but as of September, 2020, there
are only six corporations that control 90% of the media outlets in America,
six corporations, the same with Brazil, 11 families control nearly all of the
important media conglomerates in prison.
And the same is for much of the world.
Now, part of that has to do with the Pareto distribution, that the best
in the few rise to the top and a few, um, a few members or few people end
up owning the majority of the people, just like the top a hundred books
on Amazon sells 50% of the titles.
So we know that this distribution happens in nature, but what happens
when all of our media is controlled by a few elites, what happens when even
big tech, all the social media that we see is being manipulated by algorithms
or manipulated by fact checks on your Instagram, on your Facebook, on your, uh,
uh, whatever it is, whatever platform, all that fact-checking skewing, the way
that we see algorithms, shadow bands, what happens when people no longer trust?
The information and the institutes, the government, as it, it seems as
if they've been in collusion with big tech and with the media, which is what
we covered just a few episodes ago where everything is now being labeled
misinformation and disinformation, anything that goes against the status quo.
Yeah, that makes sense.
The post-truth society where we have change truth for lies and reasons
reason for postmodern irrationality.
The absurd finally makes sense.
In today's segment, we turn to the one and only Nancy Pelosi, the speaker
of the house for the democratic party in the United States of America.
Now Nancy Pelosi, for those who don't know, she is a very, very much pro.
Abortion.
And she also says she is a Catholic and here in this brilliant,
um, just lovely clip by Nancy.
We see her using her Catholicism to defend abortion.
Now you probably know that Catholicism in the Catholic church is the biggest
opponent of abortion, the biggest proponent of, of the sanctity of life than
nearly any organization across the world.
And, and that goes along with the, the three monotheistic faiths within our, our
belief structure and our belief system.
We believe as a Christian Catholics Jews, uh, Muslims, we believe.
In the sanctity of human life and that a life in the womb is a life
and that should not be taken.
But here is Nancy Pelosi using her good old Catholicism Catholicism
to try to defend the, the mortar, the murdering of unborn children
as a devout Catholic and mother of five and six years.
Uh, I, uh, feel that God blessed my husband and me with our beautiful
family, five children in six years almost to the day, but that may not.
What we should, and it's not up to me to dictate that that's
what other people should do,
right?
Yes.
It's not up to the government to dictate with other people should
do the government should not be telling people how many babies to
have, or how many babies not to have.
We, we have seen this in, in the CCP when they created the one child
policy, which has now been lifted.
And two, two child policy and recently became a three child policy, but it's
not helping the birth rate in China.
In fact, they're going to be seen a population collapsed because of their
decline in birth rate and in population.
And it's going to fare badly for that.
And, and the government there is trying to scramble to.
Correct.
So I was even asked over the weekend.
Well, should it.
Shouldn't people be able to make the choice and informed choice of
how many children they want to have.
Yeah.
There's nothing wrong with that.
But when it's wrapped up in an anti naturalism worldview, which believes
that it's immoral to have babies, then there becomes to be big problems
in a real breakdown in society.
But here she is saying, of course we shouldn't tell people how many
babies they should have, but we all also need to defend the baby's life.
But here she goes on to say that actually taking a life
that is, that is true justice.
And it's an issue of fairness and justice for poor women and
in our country, an issue for fair, uh, fairness and justice
for poor women in our country.
Well, justice for her.
You know, people talk about, oh, we need to have safe, safe, and legal abortions.
Well, who, who are those abortions?
Say for 50% of the people involved in abortion, a hundred percent of them die.
The baby, the baby always loses their life.
A baby whose heart starts beating at 18 days, a baby who can feel pain,
who has emotions, who has brainwaves
a human life.
But yet when we, when we throw away the Morris of, of belief in God, The is of
morality where it's all, all becomes relative, where we all begin to just
live for ourselves, to live for our own pleasure, to live for our own lives.
And we throw out justice.
Then this becomes, this becomes the rational decision, because if
we are just a sack of chemicals, then why does it matter?
Well, uh, Danielle, Danielle Campa Moore, she wrote an article that blew
up across Twitter and Danielle is also a pro abortion, uh, advocate.
And she wrote, and this is the title.
We need more parents having abortions in film and television.
What is her goal?
Well, her express goal is to normalize via media, which is owned by six
corporations and then controlled by big tech to normalize abortion.
That is, that is her goal.
Uh, she, she quotes a lady, uh, Renee Sherman.
Who's the executive director of, we testify an organization
dedicated to increasing the representation and visibility
of people who have had abortion.
Uh, Ms.
Sherman says one of the main ways that people learn about information
and experiences is through television and film, particularly
when it comes to health and sex.
Given that we don't have a nationwide comprehensive sex education health
program, uh, ha government programming.
That's what she's saying.
We need here.
She slips it in because we don't have a, a nationwide government.
Comprehensive sexual health program and educational program.
We need to use media to, to normalize it, make normative abortions.
Uh, Danielle continues to write, instead of making abortion, she's
begins to talk about another person working in television, uh, teres.
She says, instead of making abortion, the crux of Theresa's plot, who's
currently working on a scripted television show that takes place in
a clinic that provides abortions.
She's hoping to normalize abortion as just another choice in a wide
range of decisions that people make throughout their lives.
And for characters who have kids, she wants to frame abortion.
And what really is a parenting decision.
Yeah.
It's a parenting decision.
It's normally do I go to the chiropractor today?
Yeah, it is PR it's healthcare.
I should probably go get my back adjusted.
I should probably just go and kill my baby today in the womb.
Now I realize that maybe, maybe some of you listening have had an abortion.
Maybe you were pressured into one baby.
You pressured someone else into one.
I'm not condemning you.
In fact, what I, what I am saying is that there is, there
is hope for Greek gumption.
There is healing.
There is restoration that can take place.
Uh, that can happen.
That I believe is, is God's desire for you.
If you've gone through that while at the same time, there is, there's a clear,
there's a clear line that we need to.
Be able to draw and say that an infant in the womb is a human being and it
is a life that ought to be defended and protected is a life that ought
to be, to be fought for, for justice.
And it, no, it cannot be made light of it cannot just be swept underneath the rug.
But for those, have you who have, who have suffered that have gone through
that, there is hope there is help.
There is healing.
There is restoration that can in, I pray, does place, but this article from Danielle
who is definitely not making any apologies for her stance and it shows no remorse.
Um, in fact, she's celebrating it in clapping it and encouraging
to normalize the, the act of killing an unborn innocent life.
She continues to write.
I think the most radical reconstruction that needs to happen with respect to
abortion, especially parenting people who have parenting people, parents
who have abortion is for people to realize that it can be a serious
act of love to have an abortion.
Yep.
It's a serious act of love to kill your child because
you love your other children.
So much that little, little Fatuma, little Johnny, little Kendra.
We love you guys and girls so much that we're going to kill your
baby brother or your baby sister.
Don't just do away with them because we love, we love you children so much.
We, we are going to do away with your sibling.
She goes on and says for people who have kids, that is the number
one decision making factor.
They feel like they can't handle it.
What is driving the decision is the desire to give the children.
They already have the best life possible.
Well, who are you to say that the best life possible for
them is not having a sibling?
We have four kids and the more kids that we have, they play together.
They create company for one another.
They build friendships and bonds with one another and taking the
life and playing God and taking that life is, is morally wrong.
But when we've thrown out morality, what choices they're left?
Well, she defends herself with this saying if there is a God, I
believe that God loves abortion.
If there is a God, we know that that God is merciful and that God
is just, and he has to be both.
And there needs to be justice.
There is justice for those hundred million plus unborn babies.
One in one and three in America have lost their lives since, uh, whoa, whoa, Roe V.
Wade in 19 67, 1 in three.
Where is, where is the justice?
Where is the mercy for those voices?
Well, as we see the deterioration of society, it shouldn't be a surprise.
Polls and studies have come out, looking at generation Z in America, and they,
they identify as nuns, which means they have no religious affiliation.
45% of generation Z identifies as not versus the boomers,
which I believe is like 16%.
Now identify as having no religious affiliation.
When we throw off our re a
religious
grounding in a belief that there is a God who created us,
this is, this is what we greet.
61% of emerging adults in America have no moral problem at all with
materialism and consumerism, their worldview, their life is being wrapped
up in living in autonomous life.
It is all about them.
It's all about their own personal individual happiness.
And it goes back to what we were talking about in the very beginning
with not connecting with the person in front of you, not being able
to see the person in front of you.
Someone to help.
Instead, we're seeing people around us as threats.
Th th they could be the threat.
They are the virus.
I could get the COVID from them.
I can't talk to anyone.
They're the threat.
It creates this intense atomization of society when we, we are so self-focused
and so focused on self-preservation that we can't stop to see people around us.
And that the logical conclusion of that is materialism and consumerism and living
a lifestyle that is all about your own personal comfort, rather than living a
life full of sacrifice and selflessness.
Well, this show is brought to you by viewers like you, not
by big tech media corporations that are paying me out by years.
But viewers like you, and this is a valid for value podcasts.
If you get value out of the show, consider giving value back to the show
in the measure that you feel like it's valuable to you, and you can do that
by giving your hard, cold Fiat over at Lucas, scrub out the S K R O B O t.com.
Or you can give via streaming this on a value for value.
Podcast app such as breeze, Sphinx, pod, friend, or pod station, where
you can load up your Bitcoin wallet with some Satoshis and sweet and swing
and stream one bits and two bits, one Pence, and two Pence a minute.
And I like listening to my podcasts like that because it makes me feel
more connected to the shows in the, the independent creators that I'm
listening to, knowing that I am giving.
I get don't go away.
We'll be right back with our closing Weaver and loom segment.
Welcome back to Weaver, loom a part of the show where we take ancient wisdom.
We weave it in with our everyday lives so we can own our future
and weave our destiny today.
I'm going to start this segment with his short story, my wife and I, we
made some new friends over the weekend.
Uh, as we, as we were driving over to their house to hang out for the first
time, my wife and I shared a little bit of trepidation that both of us felt, which
was this slight worry and wondering of where they fall on not necessarily where
they fall on the political spectrum, but how fanatical might these people be?
Cause we've never met them before.
We, we, my wife, somehow, each other online through Instagram, did a swap and
sell something or another, I don't know how women do these things, but they met.
And next thing I know the next day, we're heading over to their house
to get coffee with these people.
And we don't have problems.
Meeting people, meet people all the time.
We know how to have conversation, not worrisome, but with everything that's
been happening over the, the last year and a half, there are definitely a lot
of hot topics, buttons that you never know if it's going to get pressed.
And if it's, uh, it's going to be a deal breaker that, you know, you might
just get the boot out of the house, might get a little tense and awkward.
Um, some of those conversations might be the Palestine Israeli conflict.
It might be BLM.
It could be B uh, the way that you raise your kids, it could be, it
could be the whole COVID scenario.
Where do people.
How fanatical are people about that?
Now I'm very grateful that, uh, it was a great time, great
coffee, great relational connect.
We had no issues.
And in fact, most people, most people that I engage with an encounter fee art
at the art on the far end of activism, they aren't on the far, far end of,
of being fanatical about something.
And I keep using that word fanatical because that is ties into the quote
that we're going to talk about.
But a lot of people that I talk to in the recent conflicts that I've
had, there's sure there's been a few.
Who've been very, that's it.
We don't see eye to eye on this.
I'm kicking you out, I'm blocking you and banning you.
And then the majority of people are saying, Hey, I, I agree with you.
I see it differently than you, but I'm not going to block you.
Like we can still be friends.
Mazal Tov, like let's hang out.
And then there, there's a few people who will silently slide into the
DM and be like, Hey, I totally agree with what you're saying.
Um, I'm totally on your side.
So there's this spectrum of people, but that leads that little build up
leads to this quote by the, you can minical patriarch by Bartholomew mule.
The first, who is the spiritual leader of the Eastern Orthodox
church and Christians world wide.
And he said this, the fanatic often suffers from the psychosis of conspiracy.
The fanatic often suffers from the psychosis of conspiracy.
So let's break that down first.
What is a fanatical?
Well, a fanatic is someone who, who is not just religious, but
you can be an atheist fanatic.
You can be a religious fanatic.
You can be a fanatic of any kind, someone that, that furiously hangs on
to truth and a love level of desperate arrogance, and believes that they are the
only one that has the corner on truth.
That they're the only one that has the hundred percent correct
perspective on what's going on in the world and that he or she
absolutely possesses that knowledge.
And if anyone disagrees with that person, they aren't instrument of the devil.
They are evil incarnate.
If you are different than me.
Then that means you want me dead.
If we disagree on something, it means that you want to obliterate me.
This is what fanatics belief that people who are different than them are
inherently their enemy and want them dead.
Fanatics are often uncertain, restless, disorganized, and the only
are able to balance their thinking by, uh, just, uh, uh, a ferocious
attachment to their own personal truth.
So when the quote says, phonetics often suffer from the psychosis of
conspiracy it's that conspiracy is believing that everyone is out to
get them this psychosis of believing.
If someone is slightly different than me, then there's no way that, that
we can sit down together, at least on the things that we're fanatic about
the things that were fanatic about.
And you can see this in a lot of different organizations.
You can see this in many different, um, Groups of people and it's not just
some, I've seen it in nearly all groups of people I've, I've even experienced,
uh, being a fanatic about some things myself and now Sigmund Freud talks
about the neurosis of small differences.
That neurosis is small differences is someone who disagrees with someone and
continues to find things to disagree on.
They could agree with 99.9% of their worldview or topics, but because they,
they have, they want to feel different.
They want to be unique.
They want to have this corner on truth.
They will seek out in find differences to divide on their, continuing,
to go down to finer and find your minutiae finer and finer detail to
say, ah, see, we disagree on this.
We're S we're so different.
No, you, we, we agree.
And 99% of everything, and there's just a couple minor details or
different ways of viewing the world.
Some, some minor subjects, maybe it's major subjects like
abortion that we discuss agree on.
But when you're fanatical, you will seek those things out, find those things, and
then be like, ah, because you disagree with this one thing, I think you're
wrong about everything and in everything.
And that is that the psychosis of conspiracy and the danger of
being fanatical about things.
That's what here at the show, we don't say.
That we are here because we have an absolute corner on the truth or
you or I have an absolute corner on the truth, but we pursue truth.
We seek truth.
We seek to understand how the world fits together and operates.
We, we seek to understand a framework by which we can walk out that belief system
in the world to have the optimal outcome.
So we can uncover a purpose.
I've had so many conversations where people are, are lost.
They can't figure out their purpose.
They can't figure out their meaning.
They're searching and grasping for it.
But because of the, the way they viewed the world inherently,
the world has no meaning.
Life has no meaning.
And therefore, what is the purpose of living?
This is antinatalism.
This is nihilism.
This is a life without any hope.
And if we live that way, then we won't own the future.
Well, if you get value out of the show and you want to get more value out of
the show, you can share this show with a friend or a spouse or a coworker.
And the way that I liked people to share stuff with me, it's when they
text me, not just share it on social media, but they send me a personal text.
It makes me feel loved and valued.
And then often we talk about it and that builds our relationship
stronger and it builds the walls of our culture even stronger.
And that enables us to own the future that enables us to create a framework
by which we can judge worldviews.
We can judge ideas so that we can.
Walk out our purpose and we can own our future, not just for ourselves, for
children's and many generations to come.
