Hi everyone I hope you're all well so in the midst of the current crisis bringing
the world to its knees we have seen the good the bad and the ugly when it comes
to humanity we have seen extraordinary acts of courage from health care workers
and emergency services who have been putting their lives on the line to
protect the community from harm we have seen wonderful acts of charity from
philanthropists the world over whether it is from millionaires who are donating
to various benevolence funds to alcohol distilleries making hand sanitizer and
giving it away for free to your average person volunteering to do grocery
shopping for the senior citizens on their block in order to prevent those
who are the most vulnerable from potentially becoming sick we have also
seen appalling acts of greed in terms of people buying household goods in bulk
and then selling it all online for grossly elevated prices we have seen
physical fights in shopping center aisles over who gets the last roll of
toilet paper on the shelf and we have seen acts of ranked tasteless political
opportunism from the regressive left who freaked out that their favorite causes
are no longer in vogue have sought to inject toxic divisive identity politics
into this crisis for their own ideological gratification let us not
forget that corvid 19 is a gendered crisis nurses nurse AIDS teachers child
carers and early childhood educators aged care workers and cleaners are
mostly women they are on the front line of this public health crisis and carry a
disproportionate risk of being exposed to the virus among all of the good the
bad and the ugly we have also seen the utterly colossal e tone-deaf this
originally came from celebrities who had a habit for a while there of posting
videos of themselves and their multi-million dollar homes enjoying the
quarantine life with candles and expensive LED face masks while ordinary
people lose their jobs and struggle to feed their families however this latest
bout of tone-deaf schlepping has come from a couple of Democratic politicians
who as members of the party that relentlessly but increasingly
Loosli touts itself as the party of the american worker really should know
better I am talking of course about Nancy Pelosi and Alexandra Acacio Cortez
you
over the past week or so both Nancy and Alexandria or red Cortes as I like to
call her have proven themselves not only so out of touch with the American people
that it is laughable but also at least a little bit stupid and I don't normally
fob off my ideological opponents as stupid like I really try not to because
I think it is a lazy argument but in some circumstances it really is
unavoidable because it's true so as a sort of PSA here are the four most
recent examples of Nancy and Reds colossal foot in mouths to each that we
can all collectively cringer about I mean there's nothing like a bit of sjw
cringe to pass the time in lockdown right but if you are after another way
to pass the time in lockdown how about you also subscribe to my youtube channel
I know some of you out there I've watched two three maybe four possibly
even five of my videos and you haven't yet hit that subscribe button so now is
the perfect chance to do so I do two videos a week and at least four live
streams a month so if you like my content then please hit that subscribe
button right now I would love to have you first let's take red Cortes in bad
news for tens of thousands of workers in the US a the price of oil has plunged to
historic lows and by historic lows I mean the price has dropped to negative
dollars for the first time ever this means in simple terms that oil producers
have to pay people to take it off their hands and store it because that is
cheaper than building more storage and or shutting down oil wells this of
course will lead to terrible financial insecurity and job loss for an awful lot
of people who work in the oil industry and could significantly if not
permanently damaged an important segment of the US economy on an employment level
it is you know bad news all around nevertheless congresswoman Alexandria
Acacio Cortes self-proclaimed defender of the meek and downtrodden thought it
was a good idea on April 20th to tweet this you absolutely love to see it
this along with record low interest rates means it's the right time for a
worker led mass investment in green infrastructure to save our planet
needless to say this tweet garnered an awful lot of negative attention people
pointing out the very human cost of job losses and economic
uncertainty and decrying her for being an ideologue and using the beverage bug
as I like to call it to prevent YouTube from D ranking and D monetizing my
videos as a perverse sort of springboard to gain clout for her green new deal as
such she deleted the tweet never delete tweets if you can help but people it
only serves to augment them further anyway she replaced this rather
tone-deaf tweet with this this snapshot is being acknowledged as a turning point
in the climate movement fossil fuels are in long-term structural decline this
along with low interest rates means it's the right time to create millions of
jobs transitioning to renewable and clean energy a key opportunity ok so you
can see that she has tried to turn down the really quite naki gloating tenor of
her original tweet with some fancy language about fossil fuels being in
structural decline and some hastily concocted greeny rhetoric about jobs
whatever this did not stop people from flooding their replies with screenshots
of her original distinctly Machiavellian tweet not very becoming from someone
who's always going on about compassion and empathy am i right so aside from the
fact that she majorly put her foot in her mouth on the tone-deaf front her
assertion about investing in green energy is wrong like totally wrong now
is the absolute worst time to be investing in green energy why would
anyone invest in what is now a vastly more expensive form of energy when oil
prices are so cheap for example I mean you really think your average consumer
is going to go investing in fancy schmancy new electric cars when they can
fill up their gas guzzlers for a low low price the anti fossil fuel Brigade of
which red Cortez is chieftain should be praying for massively high oil prices to
incentivize people to look elsewhere for their energy needs but and again
socialists don't actually understand incentive they just think that the
government should do everything hence why red Cortes probably thinks that a
crash in oil prices will magically make her green dream happen but then again
she does have an economics degree a major indictment on Boston University
which is where she got her so-called qualification from you don't have to
stay you're saying it's because you go to
beat you Nancy Pelosi is in my opinion one of the more despicable Democrats
from theatrically tearing up Donald Trump's State of the Union speech even
though it contained the names of the dead to report lessly pushing the
impeachment hoax and the Russian hoax she's proven that she cares much more
about politics than she does about people and it is this lack of care about
people that must have enabled her to engage in this monumental display of
what I like to call out of touch ISM speaker Pelosi what have you found what
are you going to share with us from your home chocolate oh wow and this is this
is something you can't get through the mail okay run out and show me yeah
absolutely this is the episode of cribs I never knew I needed oh my Wow other
people in our family look for some other flavors but chocolate and then we have
some other chocolate here we just got to restock the ice cream right for Easter
Sunday because we were shall we say enjoying I don't know what I would have
done if ice cream were not invented okay so at a time when millions of Americans
are literally starving loosing their homes and jobs and waiting on welfare
checks Nancy Pelosi Queen of the Democrats is showing off a $24,000
fridge and what would be at least a couple of hundred dollars worth of ice
cream packed inside it beggars belief that someone who has been in politics
for like five hundred years not literally figuratively and is a member
of the party that constantly insists how much it allegedly loves poor people
would go on television and do something like that but then again what do you
expect from the nouveau bourgeoisie let them eat cake
back to red portes in true Bolshevik fashion red has called for a sort of
workers revolt when the US economy opens back up again there's a lot that we can
be doing right now but ultimately the I think when we talk about this idea
of reopening society you know only in America does the president when the
president tweets about liberation does he mean go back to work when we you know
have this discussion about going going back or reopening I think a lot of
people should just say no we're not going back to that we're not going back
to working 70 hour weeks just so that we could put food on the table and not even
feel any sort of semblance of security in our lives now I'm not going to stand
here and say I don't know where she's coming from of course I do
I know exactly what she's talking about I understand that it is not a pleasant
existence to work 70 hours a week in menial jobs that you hate in order to
put food on the table and still not be able to make ends meet I also understand
how a person can become completely trapped in that terrible cycle and the
pain and resentment that can generate I get it it sucks but read most people
can't afford not to go to work the people read is talking about which I
would say very much characterizes a lot of the people in her district in New
York can't actually afford not to go to work in some sort of great ideological
protest to unseat the bourgeoisie and have the proletariat reigned supreme and
the thing is she's not actually kidding when she says stuff like this I mean
sure she's being a little bit hyperbolic but as a Democratic Socialist she would
absolutely be all for a kind of mass strike of that kind the thinking is that
if enough people do it and join the cause then something has to change right
well in thinking this way red simply reveals her privilege and her complete
disconnect from the working class who she claims to represent most people are
not in the position to just refuse to go to work and hope that things change the
people who can afford to do that are generally university students with
parents who can support them when they run out of money not the single parent
with four kids having to work three jobs just to afford food and aside from
anything else she just proved a truth universally acknowledged
communists are lazy why do you think they advocate for a four-day working
week she's I'm literally a communist and finally Fancy Nancy there's a lot of
talk lately about social distancing and maintaining proper hygiene practices
staying one-and-a-half metres away from people washing your hands frequently and
not touching your eyes mouth or nose all good things that can certainly stop
illness from spreading now you'd think that some of the first people to
publicly practice all of this should be our elected officials right I mean part
of their job is setting a good example for the general public well evidently
somebody forgot to tell Nancy an important piece of legislation so we
come to the floor an important piece of legislation distillation distillation
that's really fancy Nancy and quite a juxtaposition to Donald Trump I mean
he's a germaphobe from way back and is more than happy to publicly uphold those
practices even in jest you'll notice I was not here over the weekend I think
this is the part that we really need to take personal responsibility for
Saturday had a little low-grade fever so actually probably a GI thing but you
know I'm meticulous I'm a physician I looked it up I ended up piggy bank I'm
from Walter Reed so I got a test late Saturday night and I'm negative I stayed
home another day just yeah just to make sure that's how we protect one another
well there you have it Red Cortez and Fancy Nancy up to their usual tricks but
did we really expect anything better from them if you like that video please
