Fox always needs a villain and
they think they've found one,
Captain America as you'll see.
>> Captain America getting
political and anything but
patriotic in the latest Marvel
comic series released right before
Independence Day.
>> Well the issue claims quote,
The first American dream is
the one that isn't real.
It's one some people expect to
just be handed to them,
when the truth is it never really
existed in the first place.
Other cultures, immigrants we're at
our best when we keep no one out.
A good dream is shared,
shared radically,
shared with everyone.
When something isn't shared,
it can become the American lie.
>> All right, well, you confused?
>> Yeah, most of the time lately I
am confused but that is Fox News,
conservative network that believes
that libs get triggered by things
and they're so harsh about things
that are politically incorrect.
They just lighten up when things
aren't politically what
they prefer.
So, of course they've had a news
cycle, they're following Newsmax,
by the way, in melting down in
segment after segment because
they didn't think the politics of
a piece of pop culture was correct.
So again the left is censorious
the left needs to relax
about political correctness.
Then here's Fox freaking out,
because Captain America got
political for the first time ever.
Well, except for that time when
Captain America punched Hitler on
the cover of one of the magazines.
[LAUGH] Occasionally, it's dabbled
in politics from time to time, but
what do you guys think?
Is this going to work?
>> So I have 1000 things to say but
let me jump in with two things.
Captain America the original
Antifa.
Remember, that was the whole point
of Captain America was to fight
the fascist, Hitler etc when we
Americans were fighting the Nazis.
The rest of us think that was
the good old days.
Fox News' like, [LAUGH] I wonder
what they would have said about
Captain America back then.
I guess he's Captain Woke.
[LAUGH] >> Wants to fight
the fascist.
This anti, maybe Captain America
did the Capitol rise we don't know.
I just want to do one, I have so
much more but I want to make sure
that Brian Kilmeade's
not confused anymore.
Wish me luck.
>> Sure.
>> So guys in case if you're
a conservative and
you didn't understand what
Captain America was saying there.
And by the way,
it's a fictional character.
Just know for the record, okay?
He's saying, look,
if you don't share the American
dream with immigrants and
because that's what this part of
the comic book proposal was about.
And there was a whole conversation
about it and the bad guy calls the
foreigners and immigrants dirty.
That's probably why Fox News was
offended in the first place,
because Fox News calls them dirty,
but we'll get to that in a second.
And Captain America was saying that
if we share that American dream
with everybody and everybody has
hope and opportunity, then it
really is the American dream.
But if you're not sharing it,
you're only making it available to
certain people.
So what's an easy and
obvious example?
So when we had slavery,
were we sharing the American dream
with black folks in this country?
Well, obviously not.
Did they have
a shot at the American dream?
Well, they were slaves,
obviously not.
So to them,
it was the American lie.
And you can extend that to other
groups at different times in
American history.
So Captain America is not saying,
let's kill the American dream.
He's saying the exact opposite.
He's saying let's expand
the American dream so
that it applies to everybody.
And that's why Fox News is upset.
They're like, no, no,
it's just for us.
It's not meant for
the dirty immigrants.
Thank you for proving our point and
being appropriately un-American.
That's why Captain America
is fighting people like you.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah, you're absolutely right
about that.
I mean, it always kind of boggles
my mind how people could think like
the people on Fox News.
How you can look at immigration and
think, no, no, we don't want those
people in our country.
And then they'll sit and complain
of course about people who want to
include people, they're throwing
around words like woke and.
Well, I can't think of [LAUGH] any
other words that they throw out.
But they cry.
And that's the thing.
All these segments on Fox News are
nothing but conservatives crying.
Crying about inclusion,
crying about actually wanting to
share the American dream with other
people because they don't actually
believe in the American dream.
They never have.
They've always been on the wrong
side of history.
They would have sided
with the British during
the Revolutionary War.
They side with of course
corporations they side with
white nationalists and
white supremacists.
How more un American can you get?
>> Yeah, well and
they declared in the beginning of
that first video we showed you that
he's certainly not patriotic.
So first of all,
how is it up to you?
I mean, you can have your
opinion or whatever.
But the idea that Captain America
would want everyone to have access
to all of the potential and
promise of America.
I say that's patriotic I think
quite a few Americans would believe
that that is actually patriotic.
So, that's nonsense.
And again, Jeff is right.
It is just we're supposed to have
something to be aggrieved about and
obviously they don't care.
But Brian, what's his name?
Kilmeade, Kilmeade doesn't care
about what's in Captain America.
He's not reading Captain America
but what he does know is
the audience out there loves
feeling like victims.
They love feeling like everything
is arrayed against them and
everything is coming for them.
And so why not Captain America too,
so it's their job to look out there
for anything that they can pitch as
not going their way and
complain about it.
And i will double down on what I
said earlier.
They love to say that the left of
the center these people are too
concerned about things being
politically correct.
And it has bothered me for years
that some people in the center or
even on the left have played
into this.
That Bill Maher goes on his long
tangents about political
correctness and all that and
now people are buying into
the cancel culture stuff.
It is absolute BS.
I almost swore there, absolute BS.
Everybody likes certain politics in
their things if it agrees with
them, and they don't like others.
So you're being too politically
correct if you don't like someone
using the N word, but if you whine
on cable news because someone said,
hey, let's not demonize immigrants.
That's totally cool.
That's not demanding any sort of
correctness in your politics,
that's not trying to get anything
cancelled or anything like that.
All of this is BS.
It is a narrative framework set up
to make certain sorts of criticism,
acceptable and others not and
we cannot play into it.
>> Yeah, do we have more- >> We do
have more video actually.
>> This is hilarious, and
I have a point I want to make
about what John said.
>> Sure, so they're going to bring
in their big guns,
the massive celebrities who
want to opine on this.
Who've played similar
sorts of roles to
Captain America in the past.
Here they are giving their thoughts
about Captain America.
>> So what does Superman have to
say about that?
Dean Cain played that role and
took great pride in it.
>> I am so
tired of all of this wokeness and
anti Americanism.
We just celebrated our 245th
birthday.
In my opinion, America is
the greatest country in history.
It's not perfect.
We are constantly striving for
a more perfect union, as we all
know, but I believe she's the most
fair equitable country ever.
>> We keep reaching new levels
of insanity.
That's all I can say, it's obvious
America is a great country.
And this is just another example of
lies from the left.
I mean, I agree with what Dean Cain
said of this earlier, are these
American blasters out there,
are they really spending time in
other countries to see what
the comparisons could be?
I look at Hollywood in the public
education system.
They're sitting out there
encouraging us to hate each other.
Walt Disney said back in the 1950s,
he said, movies and television will
influence our youth.
And look at what's going on in
the streets across America today,
especially now the blue states and
the blue cities, and
all the anger and hate and
violence going on out there.
>> It's so sad when Captain America
is now like Captain Woke or
Captain Propaganda.
Did I miss an issue where he was
kidnapped by liberal arts
professors and
was forced to move to Portland?
>> It credits him as comedian.
My god, that's just terrible.
Anyway, look, they can have
their opinions and honestly
I don't expect much more of them.
They're just random actors or
whatever.
They can have their politics,
they can have their opinion or
whatever but
it's like Captain Woke?
Because he said, hey maybe we
should include immigrants as we
always have before in this culture.
We demonize them briefly and
then we bring them in and we become
stronger as a result of that.
You don't need to be woke to think
that immigrants are part
of America.
That's kind of like a long standing
thing actually.
That's not like we just
learned that in school yesterday or
something.
And again, it's not even internally
consistent.
Dean Cain says there,
I'm just sick of the wokeness,
I'm sick of all this.
Now America is not a perfect
country.
Okay, well let me stop you there.
How dare you Sir,
how dare you Dean Cain say that
America is not perfect?
Because you seem to think that
you can point out certain things
that aren't perfect but
other people can't.
So, if Donald Trump does a three
hour speech about how America,
it's governed by losers and
suckers, we're all terrible now.
Everybody hates us.
We need to be made great again.
That's all fine.
That's a fine criticism of America.
But if a fictional character says,
hey I think immigrants are okay,
then that's unacceptable.
That's Captain Woke and everything.
And again, it's not just that we
each have our critiques,
they're not satisfied with that.
They want their critiques to be
awesome and everyone else if they
critique they're being censorious,
they're being woke.
They're being too whatever,
too lefty.
No, we all like some things and
we don't like other things.
You don't get some sort of feigned
moral superiority because you're
criticizing something that
a lefty may up.
>> So I love that all of this so
much.
So Sorbo says they're trying to get
us to hate each other.
No, this is literally the exact
opposite, Kevin Berger was
like don't hate the immigrants.
They become Americans just like us
and we should expand the American
dream to them.
How's that hating each other?
They're not even trying
to make sense anymore.
And Dean Cain by the way,
part Asian,
obviously immigrant in his family.
And Captain America in the comics
in this episode talks about how his
family is immigrants, Irish
immigrants from back in the day and
how they suffered
discrimination etc.
And maybe Sorbo's talking about
Cain, was Superman versus Batman,
getting people to hate each
other maybe that's what he's
talking about.
I don't know. >> Superman also
an immigrant.
>> That's right.
In fact,
Superman an undocumented alien.
[LAUGH] >> It is what it is.
I don't want to call him illegal
but he didn't come with any papers.
So but guys,
let's keep it real my favorite part
was the captain propaganda, right?
Because Captain America if we're
being honest was always propaganda.
Even in the beginning, he was like,
the Americans are great and
the Nazis are bad.
Now that's true.
[LAUGH] It's overwhelmingly true.
But it was meant to like rah rah
war, effort, etc.
Now we like that.
And so we try not to go
propaganda because we like it.
[LAUGH] But if we're being honest,
it had a message.
Everything has a message.
I mean, what kind of a vapid thing
doesn't have a message?
And Captain America's message
actually has been consistent
throughout.
America is great when we are open,
when we're fighting the bad guys,
the fascist, etc.
And we're great when we stick
together and bring in everybody.
It's not that Captain America
changed.
Fox News changed like the right
wing in this country changed.
The right wing used to agree
with us on fighting fascists and
protecting democracy and
being open to people.
And by the way
a lot of the voters still do.
Even though a lot of the right
wing voters.
This is in my book that's going to
come out at some point in
the next decade.
[LAUGH] >> And seriously you'd be
shocked the enormous percentage of
Americans that are in favor
of being open to immigrants.
It's just like a quarter
of the country that is deeply
hateful and resentful.
But that gets to the most
interesting point of all of this.
It goes to what John was saying.
The assumption for
both the guests and the hosts at
Fox News is that Captain America is
supposed to do our propaganda.
The normal is for
Captain America to hate immigrants.
The normal is for him to think that
they're dirty and that the American
Dream has always been perfect.
And yeah, we didn't share it with
others but so what?
Good, good, I'm glad we didn't
share it with others, who we,
what what, the slaves need it?
They didn't need the goddamn
American dream.
They assumed all that is normal.
And so when Captain America is
actually, does something positive,
they're like, whoa what changed?
Why is he all of a sudden not
a right winger which we assumed was
the patriotic position?
No your assumption was never
correct.
This country's never
been right wing.
Again, that's in
the book justicecomingbook.com,
country's massively progressive on
the issues.
The only reason why republicans
ever win any races is ironically
because of the propaganda outlets
like Fox News that trick people
into thinking, hey America hates
equality and justice.
No [LAUGH] America's supposed to
love equality and justice.
And being decent to immigrants is
part and
parcel of equality of course.
>> Jeff, final thoughts.
>> Yeah, I just want to say how
conservatives love to claim
patriotism when they don't even
understand what it really means.
Patriotism is being able
to criticize your country.
I mean, that is why we have a First
Amendment in the first place, where
you can criticize your country.
And not get locked up for it,
which is a bonus I think.
But to criticize it,
not just to criticize it, but
to actually make it better,
to make it more open,
to take care of our own people, and
to welcome new people in.
Because when we welcome new people
in, we're that much stronger.
Cenk, you're an immigrant, how much
stronger do you make this country?
I would say a lot stronger.
And all of us going back to
a certain point as you know.
I mean, we're not Native American,
obviously or Indigenous.
We're all immigrants, and we have
made this country better and it is
up to all of us to work together to
make this country even better.
I mean, right now we suck on
healthcare, we suck on education.
In all these different metrics we
are by far not number one.
But there's something we can do
about that.
And we can work together to change
the system, for
the better to serve all of us,
to right the wrongs of the past.
>> I'm going to say a last
couple of things.
First of all, how much stronger did
I make America?
I might have made it too strong.
I'm just saying.
>> [LAUGH] John's trying to
>> Specifically when it comes to
coffee, sure.
>> Thank you for
the blog opportunity,
toostrongcoffee.com/TYT.
Gotta make sure to at
least give credit.
No, seriously guys last thing is,
that so called comedian in
the middle of his long segment,
he was like, and now this Captain
America comic book sales are up.
Yeah, that's because people like
the more inclusive message.
[LAUGH] I think they're not even
trying to make sense.
And finally here's what I think of
all this.
[LAUGH] Okay, that's right.
Captain America sent us- [LAUGH]
>> TYT a shield,
what now, Fox News, what now?
[LAUGH] >> This show's gone be
a little bit too woke.
