So I was reading a comment from a listener earlier today
Shout out to myself
It's supposedly it. Yeah, it was me there. They wrote it, but
It's just it
Yeah, we got a lot of stuff to go over today and
Yeah, the main monologue that we're gonna talk about in the first
Section here or whatever you want to call it. It's gonna be an hour or not
It's the how
Fascism socialism communism
Any former government
They're all wrong
And I'm gonna since it's the Thanksgiving holiday here in the States
I'm gonna cover that too
We're gonna
Talk about a little unknown. It's not really unknown. It's they just don't teach it in in the history class anymore
And I think it's a good thing to get out there because it really
shows
What the true meaning of Thanksgiving is and then after that? Oh
After that we are gonna have an epic hour long
trip into
I don't know what you want to call it, but it's something I've never done and it's been the most involved thing that I've done I've
slept a
worked in
worked on this story for like
Really a solid month or so just this one single story and
I've finally got it to where it's presentable and
It's going to be fun. It is fiction, of course
but
it's based in reality and
The sad thing is it's the current state of affairs that we live our lives in
That's bite rebels
One-way protocol. That's all coming up here right here on Liberty tunes live
RLM radio
so I mentioned already that I was
Breeding the comment from a listener and then I made a comment and
You know, I got a shout out to myself because my comment was really I thought really good, but the other
person's comments and what it was was
This is in a chat room in a a
Communist and basically a socialist was all
Going at it back and forth, you know, and then basically it was just
Them
Arguing the same shit and they don't realize they're arguing the exact same shit
and then you can even bring in a you know the fascism into the argument and
They're essentially all fighting over the same thing I mean they they they operate
On this the soul supreme
unadulterated arrogance
That they offer a better way for the individual to live
They genuinely believe that they can run your life better than you can
Now just think about the ego required to believe that
Just look at a human being this complex
chaotic
Beautiful mass of biology
Dreams contradictions desires and think I can optimize that I
Can put that in a spreadsheet
The listener made made a great distinction though
They said that the only real difference is the delivery method
The communists wants to force those ideas on you immediately
They use the boot
They use the gulag they use the direct threat of state violence to say you will comply because we own you
The socialists they're a little more subtle. They want to course you through the communal majority
They don't use a boot. They use a guilt trip
They use the sheer weight of the mob
They use the homeowners association from a hell to nag you into submission
and the fascists
You know how the fascists are they
They just forced you with you know, whatever boot that they can find the biggest hardest boot they can find
And you know, they're they're all they all three of them
Will still start out and say it's for the greater good
We want everyone to pay their fair share
But the fatal flaw is identical
Whether it's the political
Or the planning committee
It is the fatal conceit that a bureaucrat in a windowless room in Washington, DC
Or somewhere else someone who has never run a business
Never fixed a truck never turned a wrench
Never stuck a shovel in the ground never had to hunt for their own dinner
Knows how to spend your dollar better than you do
Knows a diet better for you
knows a
Health knows your health and your personal health better than you
But here's the problem
They view society as a chessboard and they view you as a pawn
And
The problem with playing chess with human beings the pawns have their own plans
The pawns have families
The pawns have distinct motivations that no central planner can ever predict
And when you try to force the pawns to move against their nature
You don't get a checkmate
You get a collapse
History isn't just a suggestion folks. It's a crime scene
We're gonna look at that evidence because every time this arrogance takes the wheel the car ends up in the ditch
Let's talk about sparrows. You want to see the ultimate example of what we know better than you
Do you have to go back to 1958 mouse China the great leap forward
Unquote unquote
Spoiler alert
It wasn't a leap
It was a face plant
The central planners the experts the scientists the guys with the clipboards who love the smell of their own ink
They looked at the agriculture numbers and they identified and build them
The Eurasian tree sparrow
See the government did the math linear bureaucratic math
They calculated that a single sparrow eats about four and a half pounds of grain a year
So naturally if you kill a million sparrows, you save four and a half million pounds of food for the people
It's simple. It's logic
It's moronic
So now
Drafted the plot the four pests campaign and here is where that communal majority comes in that we talked about
The they mobilized the entire country
I'm not exaggerating. They didn't just shoot the birds. They told citizens to go outside with pots pans drums and gongs
The goal was to make up so much noise that the sparrows would be too terrified to land
Imagine that an entire nation banging on cookware
Forcing these birds to fly until they literally dropped out of the sky dead from exhaustion
They smashed eggs. They destroyed nests. It was a war against nature and the state won
They nearly wiped out the sparrow population
The party officials padded themselves on the back
They gave each other metals. We fixed the inefficacy of nature
But they forgot one little variable
The kind of variable the individual farmer knows but the bureaucrat in the capital ignores
Sparrows don't just eat grain
They eat locusts
With no sparrows to act as the Air Force the locust population exploded it was
Biblical the swarms covered the sky. They didn't eat just eat the grain. They ate everything
The harvest didn't just dip it
Fanished the result wasn't more food
The result was the great Chinese famine
estimates say anywhere from 15 to
45 million people died
Start the death because the government thought they could edit the ecosystem like a rough draft of a bad speech
And you want to hear the punchline?
The irony that hurts to laugh at
By 1960 the Chinese government realized their mistake. They had to go to the Soviet Union and
import sparrows
They had to beg
To get the birds back
This is what happens when you trade individual knowledge for collective arrogance
they tried to engineer reality and reality hit back with a body count and
Yet people today still think well, we would do it better this time
Don't bet on it not gonna happen
Here's some more historical evidence for you. This is the Thanksgiving part
Now I can hear you guys already the skeptics, but bonehead that was Mao that was China
That was a dictatorship big that can't happen here
It already did
In fact, it's the reason you're about to stuff your face with turkey and watch football next Thursday
We need to talk about the real origin of Thanksgiving
Not the construction paper hand turkey version you learned in second grade not the sanitized everyone out held hands and shared equally meth
I'm talking about the Plymouth colony
1620
When the pilgrims first landed they didn't just bring buckles
and bibles
They brought a corporate contract from their sponsors back in London
That contract mandated a system that would make a modern socialist blush
It was called the common course and condition
Here are the rules
No private property
No personal ownership of land
Everything you grew everything you hunted and everything you built went into a common storehouse and then the net russians were
Distributed equally
It didn't matter if you worked 14 hours a day or four. It didn't matter if you were the best farmer or the laziest slacker
You got the same share
Sounds fair, right?
Sounds like that communal majority
Utopia my listener was talking about
Well, guess what happened?
They nearly starved to death
It was a disaster
Governor William Bradford the guy running the show kept the diary and he didn't mince words
He wrote that the young able-bodied men
Suddenly didn't feel like working
They resented spreading their sweat or spending their sweat in time laboring
To feed other men's wives and children without any compensation. They felt used. They felt like slaves to the community
So they stopped working. They feigned illness
The crops rotted the common storehouse was empty
The colony was on the brink of extinction because they tried to outsource
individual responsibility to the collective
So in 1623 was starvation staring at them in the in the face
Governor Bradford did something radical
He scrapped the socialist experiment. He abolished the common course
He assigned every family their own plot of land. He told them whatever you grow on this land is yours
You eat it. You trade it. You sell it. It belongs to you
The effect was electric
Bradford wrote that suddenly the women now willingly went into the field and took their little ones with them to get corn
People who had claimed that they were too sick to work under the collective system were suddenly the hardest workers in the colony
Productivity didn't just increase it exploded
They had a bumper harvest. They had so much food that they finally had something to be truly thankful for
That's the real lessons of Thanksgiving. It wasn't a celebration of a socialist commune working
It was a celebration that the socialist commune ended
They survived because they embraced the only system that aligns with human nature
private property and
individual incentive
We feast next Thursday not because they shared everything but because they were finally allowed to keep what they created
It's more than just Native Americans and settlers coming together
It was also a celebration of human ingenuity
private ownership
Self-reliance and the responsibility of the individual not the collective
That makes humanity thrive
That's the real reason you were never taught this in history books
It's also the reason they focused the story so much on the Native Americans and not the exact situation
Deployment settlers were in
They don't want you to remember the real history
Now think about that when you pass the cranberry sauce
Corporate games mask on eyes glowing red. I bite rebel voice for the voiceless
The unsaid the streets are cold the eyes are blind to the truth of power the corrupt design
You're screened for help, but no one hears just the equal of your own fears
No one's coming no salvation just the government's cruel
Nation-nation police and military they guard not you but the system the elite
Jones and
They promise security
Peace and order, but all you get so tighter border soldiers march not for your protection
But to keep the chains on your reflection in the dark under neon lights
I see the fight, but no one fights right the mask. I wear a symbol of war
Against the state against the core
No one's coming no salvation just the government's cool
Nation police and military they guard not you but the system the elite
Look around the troops in plain sight the government's here to maintain their might you're just a number a cog in the wheel
Their controls the only deal they sell so wear your mask join the rebellion against the tech the corporate hellion in this dystopia
We're on our own. No one's coming. We're alone
No one's coming no salvation just the government's cruel
Nation police and military they guard not you but the system the elite the chosen few
No, salvation just the government's cruel
Nation police and military they guard not you but the system the elite
Just realize that I forgot to download this
Video of a news report to play on this part, but no worries. I'll fix it post-production or you know
What do you do? Yeah, but just put the link in there, but it's a news report about back in Venezuela
about eight nine years ago when they started to go south with their great stuff because they were really a
great superpower and
the
People
Got so hungry because they couldn't afford to eat that they broke into zoos and started eating the animals. Anyways, I digress
Yeah
You know before the break, you know, I talked about the arrogance of the leaders
The ones who think they can accalculate the harvest or design a society from top down
Now I want you I want a pit of it. I
Want to talk about the weapon they used to keep you in line when they when you when they run out of bullets
Or before they even buy them
My listener back to that comment earlier
He made a short observation. He noted that while communism uses the government boot
Socialism often relies on being coerced through a communal majority
I'll pause and think about that phrase coerced through a communal majority
Sounds so nice doesn't it communo sounds like a potluck dinner
Sounds like barring a cup of sugar from your neighbor, but in practice
Is it the soft tyranny of the mob?
Yes
it is
See the brilliance of this system is that the state doesn't always have to be the bad guy
They outsource the enforcement
To you to your neighbors to your co-workers
They create a culture
Where conforming is morrow and dissenting is dangerous they're doing that right now
Even remember what was a back
I think it was Obama's
Late Obama's second term if you see something say something
and
Then that carried into Trump's first term and obviously Biden's you know, it's always if you see say see something say something
Like the red flag laws for guns
I
Just got to remind everybody
You know everybody talks about the story of Anne Frank
The the people who turned in and Frank the dude
Yeah, he was following the law
He was he was the actual the one that was legally and they're correct
Just because something's legal does not mean it's right
The people that were hiding and Frank and her family they were they were breaking the law
And everybody celebrates it's like everybody goes to the movies like
I don't know pick your favorite Marvel superhero
Or you know Batman
You know they're
Everybody's for the rebel in the movies. They stand up. They cheer, you know fight the big man
But then in reality when the government comes up and says say something see something say something let us know
Everybody bends a knee
They tell you the true freedom is selfish. They tell you that relying on yourself is suspicious
They want you to believe that the social contract a contract by the way that none of us ever signed
Requires you to subject or submit to group think
If you succeed too much you're greedy if you want to keep what you earn your antisocial
If you want to educate your own kids, you're undermining your public the truck public trust
It's a psychological prison the walls aren't made of concrete. They're made of shame
They're made of the fear of being the outsider
They sell you this idea of safety net
Let the community take care of you they say
But the majority decide I
Still say the majority and the democracy is gang rape
But let me tell you something about nets if a net is tight enough to catch you and
When you fall it's tight enough to strangle you when you try to stand up
That safety net is a spider web once you're in it. You owe this spider
Listener into this comment with only with the only truth that really matters really
The only real freedom is that of the individual and he's right
Freedom isn't about voting for the guy who promises to give you the most free shit
Freedom is the ability to look at the count communal majority
Look at the mob look at the collective and say the most powerful word in the English language
No
No, I won't participate
No, I won't conform
No, I won't pretend your lie is the truth just to fit in
But be warned when you say no
To the collective things get ugly and if you think the communal majority is just about peer pressure
You haven't looked at East Germany
Let's let's take a look at what happens when the community
Becomes the informant
Always watch out for
Countries that have to put the word democratic in their name
It's like a used car settlement telling you a car is reliable
They have to say it it probably isn't so let's take a trip to East Germany the gdr the german democratic republic
We're talking about the stasi the ministry for state security
Now most people that think of the stasi as the secret police
managed trench coats
bugging phones opening mail
Sure, they did that
But that wasn't their true power their true power was what they weaponized
the community
See the stasi didn't have enough officers to watch everyone no government doc does
So they recruited the
I'm going to butcher these words
In opposition me to beaver
The informal collaborators
These weren't uniformed officers
These were your neighbors your coworkers your teachers
even your family members
History tells us by that by the time the wall came down in 1989
The stasi had about 90,000 official officers
But they had over a hundred and seventy
thousand
informants
Think about that ratio
Including part-time snitches
It's estimated that there was one informer for every six and a half citizens
If you sat down for dinner with six friends statistically
One of them was writing a report on you
This was the ultimate perversion of the communal majority
They convinced people that loyalty to the state was more important than loyalty to their own blood
There are files miles of files
That people found after the wall fell
Women found out their husbands had been reporting on them for years
Kids found out their parents were informants best friends realized their confidential late night chats about politics
Were transcribed in a government basement the next morning
Why did they do it?
The state said if you want that promotion
If you want your kid to get into university if you want a new apartment
You help the collective you help the majority root out the dissents
They destroyed the most fundamental unit of freedom
Trust
They created a society where nobody spoke the truth because the community was listening
And if the community is listening the individual will go silent
That is the end game of community coercion. It's not a neighborhood watch. It's a prison
Where the inmates guard each other
And the moment you stop trusting your neighbor
Is the moment the state has won
But hey, at least they had free health care, right?
Got one more stop on this tour of good intentions
Happy thanksgiving everybody and this one isn't in the history books yet
Because it's happening right
Now
Let's bring this home
Let's bring us to the 21st century
Because I know some of what you're thinking
Phonehead you're talking about pilgrims cold war relics. We're modern. We have iPhones
We're smarter now
Tell that to venezuela
Not long ago. I'm talking historically yesterday
Venezuela wasn't just a country
It was a jewel of south america
It sat on the largest proven oil reserves on the planet
They were wealthy. They were modern. They didn't start with gulags
They didn't start with a coup
They started with a boat
They voted for socialism of the 21st century
That was the brand name. It was a shiny
It promised that the common communal majority would finally get their share share fair share
They cheered when the government seized the oil companies take that corporate greed
They cheered when they seized the farms land for the people
They cheered when they set price controls on food finally fair prices for everyone
And then the math showed up
You see when you seize a business you don't seize the knowledge of how to run it
When you demonize profit you destroy the incentive to produce
the result
The maduro diet
That's a real term
In 2016 a university study found that 75 of the population of venezuela had lost an average of 19 pounds
Not because they were hitting the gym
But because there was nothing to eat
We're talking about a country they used to export food
Now digging through trash bins
Remember those zoo animals I mentioned a while ago?
There are confirmed reports from the state of zulia from caracos
Caracas, how are you pronounce it of people breaking into zoos?
Not to steal the cash register, but to steal the animals to eat them
Imagine the desperation required to look at a zoo exhibit and see a grocery aisle
Now I know what you're thinking I you just know bone ed you only know what you saw online
You know, I've got friends that live in venezuela
If you if you don't if you've listened to me a while
You know, I did a show called loud and proud
One of the members of our hosts on that show was this new girl
Everybody called her andy because her name was angeles
And she lived in venezuela while this was all going on
I don't know if she's still in venezuela. I hope to hell not but she couldn't leave because of her mom
She lived through this she she told us about this stuff as it was happening
Another frequent frequent person that was on the show was not who puku
He lived in venezuela at the same time different part from where andy was at
But the same shit was going on in his city
They couldn't eat
Now who puku was a big dude when he first came on the show
He went a big dude the last time we had a show with him
It's
This stick rim reality of quote unquote the better way
They traded their economic freedom for a promise of security and they end up eating zoo animals in the dark
Just just remember if you ever vote your way into socialism
You're gonna have to shoot your way out of it
If you vote your way into communism
You're gonna have to shoot your way out of it
If you vote your way into fascism
You're gonna have to shoot your way out of it
That's just the reality of the world that we live in
Because it's
I get so tired of the left versus right bullshit
My site my ruler is better than your ruler
And it's you got to understand
It's not left versus right it's not red versus blue
It's the state versus you
So what have we learned today?
We've looked at the pilgrims starving in their common storehouse
We looked at Mao fighting a war against sparrows and losing
We've looked at the stasi turning neighbors into snitches and venezuela turning zoos into butcher shops
The scenery changes the uniforms change the slogans change, but the math
Never changes
You cannot calculate the human spirit. You cannot centralize the human drive to survive
My listener who started this whole rant for today said it best
The only real freedom is that of the individual
That isn't just a bumper sticker. It's the only surviving survival strategy that has ever worked
So stop looking for a savior in the government
Stop looking for meaning in the collective
The collective doesn't care if you eat
The collective doesn't care if you dream
The only person coming to save you is you
And frankly, that's the only person qualified for the job
A monkey bonehead
Keep your head on a swivel keep your hands on the wheel and for the love of god
Don't eat the sparrows
We'll see you next time
You're too small
No, I don't care. The sparrows are too small. What is that? It's like an appetizer
You want to eat a turkey?
I mean forget the turkey eat an ostrich
My god, how many could you
How many people can you feed on an ostrich leg?
Good lord
Or an emu I wonder what emu tastes like
I wonder if you could barbecue it
That would be awesome
Anyways, we're going to take a break and then we're going to come back and
Dude, I don't know what to call this
I don't know if I should call this a
an audiobook
A rock opera
I have no clue what to call it. It's
It's
newest album one-way protocol, but it's
It tells a complete story. I haven't done this
At all, I mean I've done I've done a couple of things where all the songs are all kind of fit along the same
concept
But this actually tells a story and I have a story
narration to go between the songs
so
There's just 56 minutes of music for it
and
No, 51 minutes of music
and
I don't know how long it's going to take me to read
The narrations, but we're going to take a break and we're going to come right back and jump in
To bite rebels one-way protocol
I hope you enjoy it because I've worked my ass off on it
