>> Totally out of ten. Okay, very briefly,
let's touch on this just because, it's so weird. Okay, let's jump into the next topic.
Elon musk has a strange and rapidly evolving relationship with the QAnon movement. And
if you were thinking what could make either Elon musk topics about him or QAnon stupider.
No, we can always devolve this is America we're number one in dumb baby. So the concerns about
the accessibility on social media for people like in QAnon and all that.
That has been one of the areas where Twitter has sometimes gotten rid of accounts. Now there
are still many people discussing QAnon on there including people with large follower accounts.
But one of the beliefs amongst those in the QAnon community is that with him coming in, Elon musk
potentially taking control, this will now be a renaissance for them. And so you're starting to
see and researchers who look into misinformation and conspiracy theories and all that.
Are saying that they are beginning to reconsider their relationship with Elon musk based on that.
So there was these big shifts in follower counts and all that, we've been talking about that
on the show. Now though they're delving into specifics with Elon musk. So yeah,
you're seeing there's a lot of things happening and that then produces, well
what might else happen, this might be a totally changed Twitter.
So they're looking into things that Elon Musk has said the QAnon. So for instance he sent out
this tweet, about truth social currently being Twitter and TikTok on the Apple Store. Which
is admittedly a weird thing to send out after you've bought for $44 billion. You're now saying,
well it's worse than true social, which literally doesn't have anyone on it.
And so if you can take a look at this, this is the patriot voice which is taking a look at the
different truth social related tweets that Elon Musk has sent out. And figuring out that based on
the timestamps, there's about 17 minutes between the tweets. One of the tweets was 17 words long,
it always comes out to 17, how many coincidences until it's mathematically impossible.
Well, when you're picking and choosing which of those coincidences to even identify,
you can really take control of that yourself. But anyway, many of them have
now landed on this, the 17 minute thing you can see Julian's rum there with it.
And the interesting thing about this about them trying to apply their like
numerology to Elon Musk tweets is up until recently you might have known this.
But the QAnon movement did not like Elon Musk, they didn't trust him in part because he had
been pictured with Ghislaine Maxwell. And remember they're supposed to care about child
predation and all that. This photo by the way, which Ken Klopfenstein
has done a great job of constantly replying to Elon Musk with is real out there.
And Elon musk is a well connected billionaire, which they're supposed to be
really suspicious of, but he might allow them to come back onto Twitter Anna. And so they're
starting to change all that, like sure, you may have hung out with Ghislaine Maxwell,
but if I can get my tweets back, I'm willing to forgive and forget.
What do you think? >> Hey, tweets take priority over your
concerns about perversion and abuse of children and all of that stuff, right? I mean, look,
let's just keep it real, I wanna keep it real about what QAnon really is, okay? It's not a
group of people who are concerned about children being abused, they don't care about that at all.
It's always been a defamation campaign against anyone they don't like in media or
politics and that's it, that's all it is at the end of the day. They get passed off as lunatics,
because some of their theories sound like things that lunatics say. But really at the heart of this
is just a campaign to viciously defame anyone they disagree with.
And that has spread to the republican establishment, and it's fueling legislation
on a state level. So, we're worried about pedophilia, we're worried about grooming,
we're worried about sex abuse. So we're going to censor teachers, we're going to ban
critical race theory, we're gonna ban certain mouth books like that's all this is about.
>> Yeah, 100%, yeah and it ties back to what we were saying before about why this stuff spreads.
You are producing an ongoing feeling of like ultimate moral superiority over all these people.
Everyone that you disagree with is a literal pedophile, they have sex with and eat children.
You are so much better than them as better than them as anyone has ever been,
that is appealing to some small minded people. And by the way, I want to thank the audience, Sorry.
>> So I just have one more thing to say, I mean, if they wanna open those floodgates,
why doesn't the left engage in that anyone we don't like is a pedophile?
Why don't we do it? I mean, but no, but like let's I don't think about, look,
I don't I don't really I'm not interested in defending people that I disagree with.
I think that I can debate them and I think our ideas are better, their ideas are not better.
So what they engage in is the worst kind of censorship, where they intimidate people by
calling them all sorts of unfounded insane things to scare them from speaking out. That's what they
do, that is their bread and butter, that is the worst kind of censorship by the way.
And so, but my point is if let's say the left wing did something, I mean,
you see this happen in government all the time. Where the democrats will launch an investigation,
but then they'll stop at the point where they
would actually carry out consequences for the individuals they're investigating.
And the reason why they won't carry out the consequences, because they're
terrified that it will open the floodgates. And then the right wing will do all sorts of
hoax investigations and carry out insane consequences unfairly. They're always worried
about, we're gonna open the floodgates the right wing is going to use our tactics against us.
>> Which is the right wing is going to do those sham investigations, no matter what,
they're already going to do it. But I did want to acknowledge someone in the audience
said one of the reasons they focus on 17 is there is biblical implicate. Like some
sort of connotation of victory and stuff like that around 17, and someone else pointed out.
Yeah, there is actually a lot of coincidences of seventeen's popping up, like 17
in Elon Musk's tweets, all of Matt Gates Sexual Partners are 17.
It really does pop up in a lot of different places.
