Parent DESTROYS Critical Race Theory in Viral Rant, Joe Rogan Says Lockdowns "F**d" U.S. Cities

three two one hello it's omale penobi here with prageru will wanted me to do a sort of midwestern accent today which i don't know how to do so that was my attempt darn tune that was not a good accent no it wasn't no where'd you learn how to talk like that eh i learned five seconds before we started this live okay a is canadian and you guys just butchered both of those i don't know who's always american i didn't say i was american i just said i was up from the north people hate these accents by the way they're like please drop stop doing accent intros listen just because people say they hate it just some people comment and say that they hate it but most people they don't comment because they love it exactly you're too happy watching to even comment yeah they're so caught up in such the the greatness of what we're doing that they don't even feel the need to comment darn tootin also no one says that i've never heard anyone say that besides you haven't you seen fargo oh my goodness okay moving on today we have three stories for you and one of them the one that we're going to start off with today is actually very triumphant and i'm very proud of the video that we're going to show you today for those of you who are unaware there is something by the name of critical race theory or crt as you'll hear it said in many of these political spaces that is sort of infiltrating our public schooling systems in many of our institutions and at its foundation critical race theory states that america as a nation was founded on white supremacy and racism and bigotry and critical race theory at its heart is trying to teach people to really view themselves by their race we view white people as oppressors in critical race theory and we view people of color as the oppressed and that is sort of the lens of which people are being taught this theory so it is infiltrating our public schooling systems especially at the lower level where you know parents are sending their kids to these schools and we're being told things about affinity groups based on your race or promoting equity equity i don't know why i can't say that i just had a mini stroke saying the word equity rather than equality in our school systems and it's a really harmful thing to teach children who otherwise would not be concerned at all about somebody's race but it is getting you know infiltrated into our schooling systems teachers are talking about it school boards are talking about it but parents are waking up to this infiltration into our education systems now i want to show you a video of a parent going to a school board meeting out in i believe it's pronounced loudoun county who is speaking out against the influence of critical race theory in her child's education so we'll pull this up for you in the words of martin luther king jr i have a dream that my four little children will one day live a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character now i have a dream that we will implement love not hate or supporting another jim crow's agenda crt is not an honest dialogue is a tactic that was used by hitler and the klu klux klan on slavery's very many years ago to dumb down my ancestors so we could not think for ourselves crt is racist it is abusive it discriminates against one's color let me educate you an honest dialogue does not impress oppress an honest dialogue does not implement hatred or injustice it's to communicate with deceiving without deceiving people today we don't need your agreement we want action in the backbone for what we asked for today to ban crt we don't want your political advertisement to divide our children or belittle them think twice before you indoctrinate such racist theories you cannot tell me what is or is not racist look at me i had to come down here today to tell you to your face that we are coming together and we are strong this will not be the last greet and meet respectfully well if there was a mic she could have dropped it right she went hard she did that was fantastic i love to see parents who are so passionate about how their kids are being influenced that they actually go to the source of the problem which are the school boards and say something yeah no you if you want to get something done you have to go and say something like people think that like they can just go on facebook and complain about it and say oh all this critical race theory stuff it really sucks and then their kids learn it and they're like on facebook again as a karen and they're like yeah this really it's like that doesn't do anything like these people actually going and and talking about it to the school board and letting them know a piece of their mind is how you get things done you have to be willing to put yourself out there to make a change yeah you do and for a little bit of background as to what's happening out in this county so the school board uh specifically six members of this school board were participating in a facebook group which made their goal to docs parents who were against crt calling them racist calling them uh white supremacists so they were a part of this facebook group these school board members who are sharing the parents names and what school they go to in what district and their support of ending critical race theory within their schools so you're essentially doxing parents within your own school district it doesn't make any sense i mean when i was going through high school at least i mean and i'm sure most people here who didn't have crt before was cool i mean we learned about black people we learned about everything in american history it's not like kids went through school not knowing what slavery was or not knowing what jim crow laws were or that america did some bad stuff it's not like we didn't know this of course we knew this it's like this is not about teaching history in a way that's conducive to helping people or making the world a better place it's about pushing a political agenda america is not the racist place that people want to say it is and this whole this whole 1619 project and the critical race theory i mean it's trying to paint america's this horrible racist country but the things that they won't tell you about america like in the founding fathers just specifically i mean like benjamin franklin started one of the first anti-slavery societies in america i mean john adams was totally against slaves george washington said he was there was no one else who would he wanted to no one else who wanted to abolish slaves more than him thomas jefferson had a black woman who he impregnated and then had children with her and then made uh made them free and taught his slaves how to read and write and win against the crown to do that i mean even in the declaration of independence where it says like uh life liberty and the pursuit of happiness you know in the first draft it was life liberty and property and then they changed it away from property because the founding fathers who were not these racist horrible people say they changed it away from property because they knew that southern states would think that slaves were property and use that as a means and say that god gave you the right to have slaves which is just not true and so that's why they changed it america is not this racist country that people say it was it wasn't even founded on all these racist ideals of course there was racism and slavery was bad we admit that and we learned that in schools but you don't have to go back in time and now teach kids about how terrible our country is and say that it still sucks for people it doesn't it doesn't you live in the best country in the world where you are the freest to do anything that you want it is a lie a blatant lie and a political tool to say that america is this racist country you are exactly right our founding fathers did found this country with the intention of ending racism and and the fact that we don't get to learn that in school is really detrimental to people's world view and it's just ridiculous that people who are against you know the slavery against oppression uh you know support what happened to this country and the civil rights movement now want to re implement segregation we want to separate white kids from black kids and teach black kids that they're somehow victims by virtue of being born with their skin color and teach white people that they're somehow privileged by being by virtue of being born with their skin color it's so regressive it is taking us back to a point uh in our country that we are not proud of and nobody is proud of what we have done in terms of cr transgressions in our history nobody's proud of it not conservatives not people on the left and everybody admits that so why are we so concerned and and so hell-bent on showing that this country is somehow a white supremacist nation when it is not they want to sell howard zinn books have you ever you ever read a people's history of america no i have it you haven't read it you read a taylor no no you know what i'm talking about though yeah the howard zinn book you know what i'm talking about no okay it's a it's a book that i learned i read this in ap us history when i was in high school my junior year of high school and it's just a terrible book i mean at the time i read this book and it's like talking about how we genocided everyone and how horrible everything is and how much america sucks and i read at the time being in high school and i was like wow america really does suck america's the worst i can't believe i live here this place this place stinks man darn tootin it stinks and it was like at the end of the day it's like you can break down all the stuff like in that book specifically and break down all these different arguments with crt but again these are middle school these are high school students okay they don't have the time or resources or even know how how to break down these different arguments that you're hearing from the left on this stuff like in howard zinn's books like he says like the bombing of dresden in uh that happened at the beginning of the war happened in 1945 when that was the end of the war that's just like one thing about it and that might seem like a small thing but if it's just if that's one inaccuracy within the book you can go through and find inaccuracies inaccuracies in all of those books and in all the things that have to do with crt in american history they don't want to teach you real history okay they don't want to teach you real history they want to teach you their leftist agenda history that pushes their narrative you're actually really right in that now that you mentioned that book i do remember it because my mother gave me a copy of that book and i remember yeah going in and reading it uh and you know the first the first probably three or four chapters are all about columbus and you know the the spanish inquisition and everything like that and coming in and stealing all the land from the native americans and killing them and all this stuff and it's meant to be rewriting history not from the viewpoint of the victor but those who uh were oppressed throughout throughout our nation's history and this is essentially what is being taught in our schools with critical race theory and if you are a parent and your child is in a public school right now or an institution of which you are not keeping a close eye on what they're being taught i would venture to say that you should check in on what your what your student is being taught i want to say one thing that this is the when i talk to people about this stuff with america and being racist i debate people or i'm talking on an interview whatever it is i'm talking to someone who disagrees with me about this stuff just like i said the other day about asking one i forget what question it was i asked people to say like ask this one question to people and see if that works this is the one that you need to ask people you need to ask them when they say america's this racist country we did all these horrible things how can you like support it say was america worth it that is the question to ask was america worth it to even if we did these things that were horrible even if these bad things happened in our past was america worth it was america worth it to be around with everything that we have done for the world now i mean all of the amazing things the technology the medical technology i mean the the the helping people across the world i mean the humanitarian efforts everything the peacekeeping that we have done i mean america in so many we're the best country ever so asking these people is america worth it and if they answer that america was not worth it then you know what kind of person you're up against and these are the people that we need to battle against if someone says america's worth it but i don't really agree then that's someone who you can change their mind on but if they say america's not worth it then you know that these are the people who we have to battle against yeah because these people are not in the interest of conserving what has been great about america since the beginning what our what our nation was founded on they're in the business of completely transforming everything of burning down all the institutions as they say taking down the system and building their own more equitable version of of united states and if you cannot find the value in what our country was founded on the principles of which our founding fathers you know birth this nation then you don't you don't have the right to you know have a discussion about this critical race theory stuff and then you're you're you're not in the interest of really fixing america you're in the interest of burning it all down and transforming it into what you want to see it's like dennis always says he's like uh if you had a wife you know or maybe a husband for you yes i don't know i don't ask okay don't ask me you don't know oh my gosh if you have a wife okay this is for my men out there you have a wife or a girlfriend and you say oh i like love my girlfriend but i want to radically transform her yeah you can't say you love your wife and you want to radically transform her that means you don't love her so these people who say they love america don't actually love america because they want to radically transform it it's like aoc coming out and saying like oh the the the green new deal you know like something about the green new deal and they say oh we love america that's why we're pushing for a green new deal it's like you don't you don't because that that that whole document and everything you're pushing for is anti-american it is anti-american it doesn't support any of the values that we profess as people who love this country and so it's like you can't say that you love america when you want to radically change everything about it these people the crt you can't say you love america want to teach american history when you are rewriting history and making it seem like america is a horrible place yeah and i mean and in the same breath they say that they they love black people and that black lives matter when inherently with what you are teaching them you are trying to teach them that they are victims that they're going to have to work 10 times as hard as everybody else which is simply not true so why why force feed this false narrative to people who can really be successful on their own they don't need to hear this stuff and it's not true and you're just if anything inhibiting people from finding true success you're planting these seeds in their mind that are just going to poison the way that they view the world when everything that you're saying is false i hate poisoning i hate poisoning people yeah will wits we'll wet 2021 that's my quote poster no more poisoning of our children no poisoning children is pretty bad yes i don't agree with that at all but the left is they're poisoning our children's mind yeah again if you don't think that this is happening in your public school system i can almost guarantee that it is and there's a lot of states out here battling to to get this removed from the curriculum and it is a tough battle to fight so what they're doing with these children is essentially teaching little kids to look at each other by their skin color and view each other differently based on that and we have to fight against that and that's why i wanted to show this parent going to the school board and really confronting it at its source we need more parents to do that we need more parents to be uh you know looking over their kids shoulders seeing what they're being educated on in their schools because like i said i can almost guarantee that it's false so if you are a parent who's dealing with this with your child prageru has prep yes we do i i thought you were going to keep going but then you like heading over i was passing it on uh prep is our resources for parents and educators it's a great group and you can join on prageru.com prep there's tons of resources for kids from kindergarten to sixth grade lots of videos to watch and we're actually going to check out a little snippet of a video i know some of you guys aren't children i don't say this lightly okay i i say this very very seriously okay i watched this is meant for children and i watched this video and i was i was very entertained yeah it's actually such a good time and you might even learn something who knows i have to give a shout out to the production team here at prageru because they did such a good job making this into something that even a 24 year old and a 20 year old white privileged male can enjoy so here we'll show you a little clip from it [Applause] [Music] hey you guys are early i was just finishing my lunch welcome to otto's tales story time brought to you by prep prager used resources for educators and parents do you mind i would love some mustard how sweet otto this isn't real mustard you silly dog it's actually amlo in the costume that's my other side hustle guys i don't always do this so sometimes i'm auto yeah ottala wow i'm jill and today we're reading from c to shining c written by kalista gingrich and illustrated by susan arciero now there's someone who has a very unique name in this story and i want you to listen for her name and let's see if you can find it by the end of the episode ellis the elephant loved the american tale where courage determination and freedom prevail he wanted to know how america came to be a nation united from sea to shining sea the country was young and needed to elect a strong president the people would respect george washington had led the american revolution and became the first president under the constitution there we go and that is some of the content that we make over at prageru prep that is american history right there everybody knows that elephants came over on the mayflower and started this great country of ours yes if this was i it is very good it was actually very entertaining and i think that if you have children you should be showing them our prep content they're on youtube and also on the prageru website if that was the left they would have turned the elephant into a black elephant and all the founding fathers would have beat him up that is very slaved or something they would have shown them you know killing native americans and stealing the land from them and then founding this country on white supremacy and slavery yeah xenophobia for sure yeah imagine being a little kid just having that taught as american history and that's is what is happening i cannot stress that enough that is what is happening people especially uh you know these teachers who are mainly on the left you know teaching is a very liberal field they are having a virgin to teaching american history they don't want to teach kids american history anymore no they do not and it's a sad thing and we should bring it back so if you're having trouble with this at your school or you're a parent and your kid is having trouble with this at your school sign up for prageru prep and we did drop the link in the chat so make sure you check out peggy.com prep you can join and figure out ways to support and just enjoy some of that content sharing with the parents that you know and teachers that you

my gosh the chemistry is just insane oh who would have thought anyways we're going to move on to our next story now so before on an earlier stream we showed you a cia recruitment ad and that one in particular was about a latina woman who joined the cia and was just very proud of her she said i was so oppressed by you know my race and people treat me differently and it's so great that i was able to join the cia and be a part of something that is inclusive now the cia tends to be running with this theme it seems because they've now released a new recruitment ad that is focused around lgbtq pride and featuring one of their gay agents so here we go a gagent engagent we all thought it but you had to say it will always does that he always has to say what's in his mind i know i'm a habitual line crosser it's okay here we go as an agency librarian i work to ensure that our collection and services are matched up with what cia needs not only am i involved in the acquisitions of journals books and countless electronic resources i'm also encouraged to curate special collections that challenge expectation recently i brought in our intelligence gaming collection to give officers unique opportunities to practice skills they need in their various roles instead of sitting for hours in front of a computer-based training they can play a carefully selected game to train a specific set of skills while simultaneously building on the myriad soft skills essential to intelligence work my favorite thing about cia is that they encourage the out of the box ideas that drive real progress growing up gay in a small southern town i was lucky to have a wonderful and accepting family i always struggled with the idea that i might not be able to discuss my personal life at work imagine my surprise when i was taking my oath at cia and i noticed a rainbow on then director brennan's lanyard which i later learned was designed by engel one of the many employee resource groups here at the agency i remember being stunned since then however i've learned that far beyond the resource groups inclusion is a core value here officers from the top down work hard to ensure that every single person whatever their gender gender identity race disability or sexual orientation can bring their entire self to work every day [Music] wow okay i cannot believe this it's honestly unbelievable central intelligence agency you know it's it's infiltrating everything oh my gosh imagine just watching your national defense just become weaker and weaker and weaker especially when we see everything going on in the news right now i know and this is what the cia is worried about other countries are definitely laughing at us right now because we're worried about you know making sure that i don't know there's all this like diversity inclusion stuff that's what the priorities that's what our intelligence agency whose purpose is to defend us and like know what's going on in the world and we're so like inwardly focused on the personal life he said i'm worried that i won't be able to bring my personal life to work and the cia's broadcasting that is like hey you should come work here because you can bring your personal life to work like what does that have to do with defending america collecting intelligence from you know about what's going on in the world and the rest of the world meanwhile is like bulldozing across doing whatever the heck they want to do and not worried about american interest one bit and the cia has nothing to say about it even if you're straight you shouldn't bring your personal life to work it's like if you want to hire gay people for this yeah like if that's we're not mad about that but it's like why are why is your entire ad built around you know diversity when that's not the purpose of the cia yeah how about you come to work you do your job and then you go home yeah what happened to that no that's that's a thing of the past you're obviously a homophobe they need to be gay obviously obviously and what's really funny about this video to me and i think it really it really breaks down what the left talks about their ideology and how they brainwash people when none of it is really true he had all these perceived notions about the fact that he was going to go work for the cia and nobody was going to want to hear about his personal life he was going to get made fun of because he's gay people are going to be bigoted towards him and he goes there and he goes oh that wasn't what i thought it was at all which really speaks to you know the larger umbrella of how america actually is people perceive us to be white supremacist people call us racist people call us bigoted people say that we discriminate and then you get here and you don't experience anything which is also weird because he was like my family was super chill with it and then he's like i grew up in this small town in the south it was pretty chill and then he after all that he's still like i was gonna i didn't know what was gonna happen it's like did you know it was gonna happen everyone's gonna be fine with you being gay exactly who cares that you're gay it's if you do a good job or not yes do a good job and then no one cares who you like all right so why are we talking about it and it goes to show like i was exactly like that when i was on the left as a black female i was taught oh you're going to have to work so much harder you're going to be oppressed people are going to treat you differently and i didn't experience an ounce of that i mean not an ounce of it yet i was so convinced in my own mind of my own perceived oppression that i let that again poison my brain we're just poisoning people's brains rap poison these people are virtue signaling it's nothing real you can say like how latina or how gay your cia is all you want but it's like what people care about is that the job gets done exactly people care that our cia is collecting intelligence on terror cells and and evil people around the world and you know hamas right now and like those are the kind of things that we care about the cia's doing i don't care who's gay who's mexican who's black it doesn't mean any who's trans none of that matters to me the cup like what you wear to work means more to me than than who you're sleeping with or what color your skin is like none of that means anything to me the only thing that matters is that you're doing a good job and right now other countries are laughing at us because they're going to be eating our lunch 70 of people who go through the military service 70 of millennials couldn't qualify for military service in this country 70 that's a mix of the asvab test as well as the the physical stuff and it's like that's what we're and we're worried about people being gay it's like people can't even qualify to get in the military do you remember the old like marine corps commercials where like the guy like has to like climb the impossible mountain and then fight the dragon and it's like this awesome badass commercial and then it's like the few the proud the marines like the contrast between that and this ad where it's like you know oh well i was really scared about what people would think about me at work but the good news is the cia is going to be really nice and let me play board games and teach people about things like what are we doing what is this we're creating safe spaces for cia agents it's so crazy look that whole video not an ounce of strength was shown in that video not an ounce of aptitude was shown in that video essentially we just watched a guy come on screen say i teach cia agents how to play board games also i'm gay and the cia loves that join the cia today you know the new commercial he like climbs that mountain he's just fighting like the gop like on the top of the mountain yeah we're we've become weak drag queen story hour when he gets to the top oh this is so great i mean do you feel like mountain is made of cotton are you gonna go to sleep feeling safer than knowing that america is being defended by a cia with these priorities right now like no no not at all i just care about what you guys do maybe you know maybe they're just doing this i there's a part of me that thinks okay they're just doing this for marketing and the people who actually work at the cia are like actually doing some good work i hope that that's the case i hope that this like hasn't infiltrated every part of their organization and that there are people who work there i'm sure there's i mean i would assume that a lot of the people work at the ca majority of people are great people who don't care about this stuff and it's mostly marketing it's always marketing departments that's why like our culture is so centralized on marketing right now in these huge leftist cities but so i i would hope that that's the case but i can't be for certain i can only help just like look at all the facets of our society that are focusing on this kind of stuff we have corporations focusing on it we have our colleges focusing on it we have our public schools focusing on it we have the cia and people who are in charge of our homeland defense focusing on it just think about how many resources how many mines how much money is going towards creating content like this and pushing an agenda like this when it could be going towards actual education actual work for cia agents actual protection of us citizens we are just wasting our time and our efforts on this sort of stuff and yeah and for all the emphasis on this being something that's like progressive progress is when we are no longer talking about these things that's what it looks like it's when it doesn't matter like to will what will saying if you can get the job done that's what matters and we're progressing when all this stuff is not the focus and we're not worried about what your race is or what your sex is or what your gender is or whatever we're worried about can you get the job done and is the best person for it are all those barriers removed and no one's discriminating against anyone and it feels like we were kind of pretty much there and now they're taking us back and they're putting all this race gender sex class all that stuff back into focus and creating new barriers and and undoing the actual progress that's being made in the name of progress it's so backwards it's like the progress that they have with like the the many of the trans activists they tell like people like if you uh if you're trans like let's say i was a man before and then i become a woman and then i go to like hook up with a man right and i don't tell him before they say you should be able to do that like that's totally fine which is of course not fine i mean that's a horrible terrible thing to do to someone right but they're telling people that it's fine and in turn that makes it so that people have like violent actions taken against them when they're trans or they have discriminatory practices taken against them because they're trans because the movement the trans movement it got so progressive that i was telling people okay now you don't have to tell someone who you're sleeping with whether or not you're trans and that is not progressive that is regressive and you're actually making it worse for these types of people in society not better you're making it worse by getting so progressive you are regressing by making these kind of jumps they're getting so woke that they don't even know what to do all our heads are about to explode it's getting insane it is getting insane or more insane it's been insane for a long time and staying in the membrane for a long time yeah it's just getting it's just getting worse and worse and like i said the cia just spent probably an exorbitant amount of resources making that video to simply have an agent go and say hey guys the cia is not homophobic it's like okay yeah we already knew that you have to say that too i know then it's like what's really happening the what we are the ci gay oh my gosh but also like i'm seeing comments in the in the chat too that people are like you know i'm gay and i'm conservative and other stuff matters to me and it's true like most like the gay people i know are not the ones making a big deal out of you know everyone needs to accept me everyone needs it it's it's the woke left people who need to put this out in front of everything and to get their own virtue signaling out of it i would assume that the people who made this out are straight i would guess that they are straight people who made this ad to show that like they care about gay people i accept you guys i hope you know it and i made this one minute and 30 second video just so that you know that the same with like the latino one that we watched the other day the other cia recruitment out if you guys haven't seen them i bet the people who made that were white exactly and they're like trying to to play their work cards and be the wokest person out there and make yourself look like a fool you do make yourself look like a fool and it's essentially it's just ruining society it's ruining culture and the woke left is honestly that's that's just what they're doing and somebody who has really brought in light to that recently is joe rogan so i'm going to show you an article here about joe rogan talking about the covet 19 lockdowns and how smooth transitions thank you very much each other daniel well done i plugged myself into the next story so yes joe rogan has been talking about how new york is irreversibly effed he says i'm not going to repeat exactly what he wrote but he's talking about how new york city and the leftist policies and leftist ideology specifically that surrounding the coveted 19 lockdown has essentially ruined the city he talks about how all these businesses have been shut down nobody's coming out of their homes americans are upset with all the mandates in regards to mass and vaccines and as a city new york city that used to be so full of just life and culture and fun is is no longer what it used to be i love new york you know that's where i'm from so it's it's pretty sad to see you're bringing back yesterday's accent i'm walking that accident they really did i think we had a lot of new yorkers watch the podcast yesterday because they were not happy with the accents you guys can't say you're not happy with the accents i'm celebrating new york i'm not doing it in the mean way i'm not trying i'm not trying to make fun of you i love you we're back to the cultural appropriation i know you know i have to go to new york and do the accent around new yorkers and then do it around like college students and see which group of people thinks that it's offensive our next video coming to you guys soon is will doing that that's the next one but anyways so joe talks about how he doesn't blame people for this sort of great exodus that is happening from states like new york and from places like california because who wants to sit in a state where all this stuff is happening the world around them is deteriorating and still continue to invest money into the very same policies that are creating the destruction exactly yeah no it's it's all pretty sickening to see that these places that were once like the most amazing places in america i mean los angeles everybody knows that los angeles was like the best place ever in america like in the 1960s in hollywood and like the golden age of hollywood like it was the most amazing place to be and now it's literally the worst place to be there's nowhere worse than america to be than in los angeles not just because of the high taxes and high business expenses and all of that but just the culture of this place is so bad and that's not even all attributed to leftism is attributed to just the the culture that we have here in l.a and it's it sucks that that's where we are right now because i love la i love so many things about here and it's just gone so bad yeah amelia moved here from florida rural florida like two months ago and uh what what is your like you know expectation versus reality you know we did the whole like vlog about it but you know in your own words kind of like what was your expectation and then what was your idea and i'm sure you heard a few things but yeah i mean when i was a child and i heard about los angeles it was pictured as the pinnacle of american society there was so much to do here it was sunshiny it was clean there were celebrities waltzing around everybody loved each other everybody was here to to be successful to put in the work to make it and i got here uh moving from florida and immediately just missed my home state because it's not that anymore at all i mean there's homeless people everywhere the city is dirty a lot of people are out of work something like sixty percent of the businesses here are shut down due to these at 19 lockdowns so we've really fallen from grace as a city show that venice video you have that venice video to show i do i do have a venice video to show you guys so this is our city just to give you sort of the imagery of what we're talking about venice in 2020 looked far different than venice looks here today in 2021 and here's a little video to showcase that for you one thing i just want to preface this before because some of you guys you might be from los angeles you know a lot of parts of venice have always been a dump okay the boardwalk has always been a dump so but we're not just saying like not always just in the last like 10 years or so i don't know i feel like people have known like venice once upon a time muscle beach was like a sweet place to go i'm just saying okay listen it's been a dump for a long time all right but this just shows how the lockdowns like exorbitantly made it worse it was exponential worseness because of the lockdown worstness what's the word i think i think worstness is a word i i can't confirm or deny that well so i'm an englishman let's keep coming so this is the venice beach boardwalk here we go that's 20 20. okay not too bad it's kind of pretty yeah it's pretty people are hanging out no problems here's 20 21. same exact shot same exact location look at all those encampments wait for it it doesn't stop home sweet home home sweet home baby home sweet home i love and now i'm like i don't know is yeah so i i was living in santa monica the last year and um first hand experienced i like every night basically almost every night of the week there would be a homeless guy who would come in in the little alcove outside like well there's a parking lot you have to access it through the alley and they'd come in the parking lot on private property of my apartment building and just sleep there and like they'd bring bikes they'd have they have iphones and like laptops but they're like homeless and they just sit there and like and like i'd be like trying to fall asleep in the middle of night and all of a sudden two of them would be like arguing with each other and it'd be getting heated and i'd literally have to call the cops and i i contacted my apartment people and i was like hey like this keeps happening what can you guys help me out what should i do and then i call the cops and i was like okay so i started calling the cops and i'd call the cops and then they'd come and then the homeless people would leave and then they'd come back like two days later or i'd call the cops and if you say homeless in la um they won't come to address to move them they will you have to say a suspicious person my old neighbor who's lived there for like 40 years and has rent control was like oh yeah you have to do this than this and he's like oh yeah a person was shot across the street and this is like santa monica like one of the most expensive zip codes in the country a nice area nice place and uh you know i just i just left and you know i'm getting i'm getting married too my fiance was like yeah we're not living well taylor getting married congratulations she's like we need to go to a building with security and it's it's just a sad state of affairs and even there where the new place ride is across through from this park and what what is the park full of it looks exactly like venice beach is like tons of this is like our day to day reality there's these tents everywhere i mean like you've seen it like all over la and it's crazy because normally when you move somewhere you you me you meet somebody who's a local and they say oh you know a pro tip a good coffee place right up the street a couple blocks when you move here it's like oh a pro tip when you call the police on a homeless person say suspicious person don't say homeless person it's so crazy that that's what you have to learn when you move to la and i've even seen it where i moved so i move it uh to an area called silver lake in la and a few months ago it was like it was fine it was not even bad i didn't see any homeless people and it's even over the past couple of months it's progressed where i'm starting to see homeless people more and more and the streets are just getting dirtier and dirtier and nobody wants to do anything about it it's just a problem that's not even being addressed they have all these like squatting laws too that like you can't kick you can't evict homeless people if they're like it doesn't work in every situation but there are like some of the laws that are the worst in the country with this like you can go into a house as a homeless person that's unvacant and then you can squat there and then they can't just kick you out they have to evict you they have to evict you out of this place it's different in different counties and like that's not the full story but that's essentially what it is is that like you you have to be evicted we had this guy my buddy lived next to a place to me in hollywood and there was this mattress that was outside right outside the place and this homeless guy would do dirty things outside on the mattress okay that's all you guys can think of the visual fill in the blanks he would do dirty things outside on this mattress and we would call the police or he would call the police it was his building i didn't live there and he'd call the police and be like can you do anything about this guy and they're like you know like the police can't kick him off like we have to give him an eviction notice to get off the property here it's like this dude is is doing this nasty dirt right out front of my place you can't kick him off he's doing that nasty bad bad you know right out front and it's like you can't kick him off what do you mean a restless person there's like people who walk by and they're watching this yep pooping on the side of the street you watch them poop it's crazy like something has to be done so that they can get out get actual jobs so that we can make it so that like we don't have these encampments everywhere it's so dirty everywhere you go in la it smells horrible it smells horrible hollywood walk of fame i mean it smells so bad i can't go do videos there anymore i used to do videos there all the time it smells so bad you can't go my grandpa told me that he went he took the family on a vacation to l.a like back in the 60s and he was like it was so pristine in hollywood boulevard if someone like dropped a piece of trash on the ground there was like someone to come pick it up and the contrast between that and now it's like disgusting i've dropped a link in the chat if you guys didn't see but of amela's first visit to hollywood which we documented in a vlog um and you know the expectation vs reality hit pretty hard pretty quickly there yeah it was a rude awakening for me and the longer that i'm here the more i realize that we can recognize that there's a problem i think everybody can recognize that this is problematic but we are not fixing the problem we are accommodating the problem and it's really really sad and i have an article here to show you guys here so there's a place here called will rogers beach and there are so many homeless people yeah taylor goes there to play volleyball yeah so this is the beach that i go to almost every weekend to play beach volleyball and now we're blowing up taylor's spawn i guess so um and yeah like a new city councilman or has uh recommended or put forth a motion to turn this beach into a homeless campsite and this is like this just keeps happening in la they move the problem around or open up different spots and look like amlo saying we can be sympathetic to you know the hardships that these people are facing they have mental illness they have nowhere to go they're they're on the out and out and like we can be sympathetic and there are ways to help them but um the way to help them is not can the answer cannot be giving up our city and punishing taxpayers and making parks and beaches inaccessible to children making parks unsafe for children there's needles on the ground that's full of you know a mentally unstable dangerous we that cannot be the answer and it's it's and it's also not compassionate to like let someone live on the street that's not what compassion it lives like so for all the talk of like on the left it's like oh we need to be compassionate well it's not compassionate to make someone live on a sidewalk okay and so that can't be the answer there are answers and we're looking at doing a vlog soon with an organization in los angeles called the dream center that actually does tackle the problem and try to address it at the root but even them talking to some of their representatives are like we can only help these people as much as they want to help themselves but we you know lowering the bar is never the standard the same thing with the cia stuff you know we we lower the bar or the the military lowering the bar doesn't help anything any academic standards for you know in the black community lowering the bar for people only makes everything worse you know if we hold the bar high and then figure out ways to help the people who are you know who are not that yeah but that's the better way to address it we're like not all these people though are mentally ill like these people not all the people on hollywood boulevard are mentally ill it's true like we talked about the other day you get free handouts from the government why would you want to work we went i went to skid row okay i know a lot of people they just they talk about homeless stuff or they talk about what's going on they don't actually do it i go and do it i went to skid row and talk to homeless people and talk to the people who work there with the homeless resources and these people many of the people like a guy who i talk to which is so sad it's horrible he said that i i left my family in louisiana he had a wife and two kids a wife and two daughters he left his family in louisiana to go be homeless in la he said i wanted to try out the lifestyle and there are people who do that and these places like skid row was filled with prostitution and crime and drugs like we can't let this go on we can't and the amount of money like the amount of money in the homeless like for the government programs the amount of money just looking if you guys can ever see look it up the amount of money that goes into the admin just paying people's wages who are supposed to be helping this problem is so incredibly high that the amount of money that actually gets directed to each homeless person is so incredibly low it's so incredibly low and then you're just again throwing money at the problem so none of the government solutions work you need to give these people a path that they actually have to work you have to make like basically staying out on the street illegal because it's like you can't just have people staying everywhere i mean there has to be like practical solutions to this because nothing they're doing now is working it's actually making it a lot lot worse yeah there needs to be a crackdown on this sort of issue to be living in a city that has one of the highest you know prices to live here it's so expensive to live here in l.a and that is partially what is contributing to a lot of the people being homeless in the state but it's not fair to the people who are here paying and paying rent and working to have to deal with this every single day so something needs to be done about it and it's not just i mean to joe rogan's point too i mean this is just we spent all this time talking about one issue and that's just the homeless issue there's also the taxes there's the terrible governance across the board um and so i don't blame anyone at this point i don't blame anyone for for leaving california and you know we're still here fighting the good fight but you know no no judgment here if uh i'm ready to get ready to leave i'm ready to go i know man i am there's a growing swell of us that are like oh man yeah nashville's looking pretty good right now there's a growing disdain we're ready to go yeah i always say that if it was not for this job if it wasn't for the people that i'm working with and the work that i'm doing i would not be here in la i would be back in florida so i did leave a freedom state to come out here and and do the work so we have lots of work to do clearly yes yeah and it's and it's like you know uh people keep voting for uh these policies and they keep supporting these policies and so as long as you do like you deserve this you deserve to have your city go down the tubes you know as long as you continue to vote the same way and continue to perpetuate the problem by supporting the policies that start these problems and again it goes back to that does it feel good or does it do good i feel like californians just have this mentality of like oh well it it feels good to say oh let's not be mean to the homeless people but it is actually mean to them to enable them to live this bad lifestyle because they could they're never going to get the help that they truly could get as long as you're just focused on enabling and giving up and conceding ground making the whole city worse it just it doesn't work yeah it's like if you have a son and your son is like a major drug addict and you keep letting him do drugs and you don't give him any consequences and then you keep giving him money to go buy more drugs that's not helping your son that's not helping him at all you need to discipline your son and make sure that he gets up on his feet and like makes a better life for himself given the opportunities so that he can make that better life help him and be compassionate but you can't just keep giving him away you can't give him the the cake and eat it too at the same time yeah we need to fix the problem like i said and not accommodate it not allow it to continue and just make safer spaces for people to do the things that are causing the detriment to our society and that's you know just a foundational belief that we have as conservatives just taking responsibility for things taking accountability teaching people to have accountability for themselves and that's not how we are treating the homeless community out here in los angeles and i'm sure a lot of other states are experiencing this very same problem so we at prageru try to warn against that and sort of teach the foundations of conservatism so that people can learn that and hopefully take that in place in their own lives yes and guys before we wrap up uh say a prayer for everyone in the middle east right now we hope that the violence ends soon and hopefully everyone can come together and be peaceful that's the best thing that we can hope for and we hope that everything works itself out and we have a lot of resources on prageru about a lot of the problems happening in the middle east right now you guys can check them out on preview.com as well if you want to learn more um we would talk about it we're kind of out of time for today but again we pray for these people and hope that everyone stays safe out there with everything going on yes so uh that is our our parting message for you i know it can be very hard to watch what's happening in the news right now and if you are confused like will said there are resources that we have for you to get you caught up on these issues and why all of this is happening if you like our
