My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro American student organization in the country, fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a Turning Point USA College chapter. Go start a Turning Point USA High School chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade. Most important decision I ever made in my life. And I encourage you to do the same. Here I am, Lord. Use me. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go. The Charlie Kirk show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold. But the leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends and viewers. Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another edition. This week's edition of Thought Crime Thursday. It's a great week. It's a great week in America. Donald Trump's ice officers and agents are out on the ground in Minneapolis. The Lib Hill hordes are running towards them and they are vomiting on the snow because of the tear gas that is being launched and volleyed in their direction. Incredible scenes, incredible content. Sorry to all the people who say nothing ever happened. Sorry to all the black pillars out there, the Pannikins. You are losing. We are winning. Donald Trump is winning. America is winning. But tonight we are here to commit some thought crime. So who do we got tonight? We got Andrew there. I think we got Blake.
B
Yo, yo.
C
We've got three guys at the desk. We're maintaining that pretty consistently. I'm very proud of you guys.
B
I'm very proud to be here. I, you know, I now live in this area.
C
Yeah.
B
But, you know, sometimes Tyler wondered if I'd ever come and it just, you know.
A
Yeah.
B
Charlie.
D
Charlie wanted to get. Charlie wanted to get Andrew to move to Phoenix for many years, and he.
B
Eventually sort of gave up. And it's a weird, you know, I feel grateful to be here despite all the things. And it's for.
A
I, on the other hand, think that God didn't intend for people to live in Arizona because it's a desert filled with nothing.
B
And you've thought about it.
C
Whereas when I just seems like God.
A
Doesn'T want people to be there.
C
Yeah. Whereas when I go to D.C. or Pennsylvania and you know, drive through Philadelphia. I really think, like, this is a place God intended people to be.
A
No, DC is obviously satanic. You're not, you're not gonna, you're not gonna convince me otherwise. Of that God didn't want people to live in wood.
B
Wait, didn't you in Pennsylvania just have that, like, what was it? Cook County? The D.A. there was like, we're. Or was it a mayor who was like, we're breaking our Bucks county, we're breaking our agreement with ICE and we're not going to cooperate with DHS anymore. That's Pennsylvania to me. We got.
A
Excuse me, do you want to talk about the Arizona governor, the Arizona ag.
B
Yes, I do. We're going to get rid of her. Wait, how about, how about.
A
Wait, wait, Tyler. How about speaking of Arizona senators, this.
B
State went six points for Trump in November. How many points did Pennsylvania go for Trump? I'm glad it was tight, but it was a bigger.
A
But it was a bigger swing. But Tyler, no, in all seriousness though, did you. Talking about thought crimes, you saw that story about Kirsten Sinema and her and her bodyguard today, right?
D
I'd missed it.
B
Oh, I've been busy.
C
Or not, Believe it or not, we.
A
Have literally like keeper of the tea of Arizona missed this.
B
Oh, Tyler, you're going to love this.
C
We had two. So believe it or not, we've had two different Democrat lawmakers who won an election in 2018 who ended up having a weird, lurid sex scandal with a staffer today, which is not today.
D
This is the one with her. With her bodyguard.
C
So she got sued because she apparently had a drug fuel, allegedly a drug fueled affair with her bodyguard and caused the dissolution of his 14 year marriage. And in North Carolina, where the suit has been brought, alienation of affection is still a valid trial.
B
I love that. That should be a rule everywhere. Secondly, I do feel I just.
A
So it's the wife of the guy.
B
The wife of the guy bring. Suing.
C
Yeah, the wife of the guy, yes.
B
So I do feel a little like, you know, tepid about my response here because Kyrsten Sinema came out in defense of ERICA Kirk. Like WaPo took, took a shot at her, her wardrobe choice or something like that. And Cinema actually chimed in and was like, can we just stop this effing stuff? Right? You know, for once and for all. And I was like, yeah, I haven't, I haven't thought this highly of you, Kristen Cinema, since. Since you blocked nuking of the filibuster by the crazed Dems.
C
My favorite part of the Story, which is not new exactly, but I learned of it, which makes it actually new because that's what matters is that apparently her post Senate career has been lobbying to liberalize laws around hallucinogenic drugs, specifically some.
A
Oh, there's a lot of hallucinogenic drugs in this story.
B
Wait, hold. Isn't it Scott Perry? Well, not Scott Perry. Who's the Texas guy? Department of Energy. Former Department of Energy. Ran for. Was governor of Texas.
C
Perry, Perry.
A
Perry. Rick Perry.
B
Rick Perry. Rick Perry is like really into ayahuasca. There was a whole New York Times.
A
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
B
Feature on it. Very, very.
A
Cernovich coded.
B
Yes. I was literally thinking like, Cerno, Cerno. Yeah, he's really into it. Like, there's a weird cross section of people that are into ayahuasca and, you know, getting. Getting high on this. You know, this stuff you get in the rainforest so that you can get over past traumas. I happen to think it's all bunk. I would love to hear your thoughts on it. You know, pharmacia in the Bible is what they often refer to as sorcery. Sorcery is the word is pharmacia. I believe that when you put substance in your body, it's a highway to hell. You're just inviting witchcraft so that you can't.
A
I believe all witchcraft. 100% believe it.
B
Yeah. So the people that are big ayahuasca. I'm like, if I was the devil and I wanted to convince you that taking drugs is really good, I would leave you with a positive impression of your drug experience.
A
Yeah.
B
And so I.
A
There are people who take it, though, that have really bad experiences too, though, to be sure. Some people get sick, some people, like there's been violent crimes associated with it. So it's. It's really kind of like a playing Russian roulette for a lot of people. But the way. The way that I always look at it is like, that's, you know, as. And you know, as a Christian. Right. So you read the Bible and witchcraft is clearly discussed in the Bible. The occult is clearly discussed in the Bible and we are told not to do it. However, that doesn't mean it's not real. It is real. The problem is, is that you're connecting with spirits and entities on the spiritual plane that you have no idea who you're coming into contact with. Okay. That's not a little machine elf.
C
Okay?
A
That's a deep demon. All right? You're being connected with a demon right there, and you are being tricked by that demon to probably do something that you shouldn't do. So the way that we're taught to do this is through church, is through the Bible, is through Christ. Obviously. That's the way to connect to the spiritual side of. Of. Of good and not all of this insanity of the demons and fallen angels.
B
All right, so check it out here. Just real quick. This is. This is the New York Times. The long, strange trip of Rick Perry. The former Texas governor and Trump energy secretary has now dedicated his life to promoting the powerful psychedelic ibogaine. That's what it was. Ibogaine. Not ayahuasca.
C
That sounds like a hair loss medication.
B
Yeah.
C
I say as an expert on hair loss.
B
Yeah.
C
No, not the medication to prevent it.
B
All right, we should get.
C
We can get into it. We'll transition here.
B
Where are the demons?
C
We got our. We already have our first rumble rant tonight from Kyrie. I know she's a regular. Thank you very much, Kyrie. She says first. Hey, guys. Great to have 4 out of 5 of the TC crew tonight. I agree. 2. Y' all need to make a thought crime T shirt. And Tyler's in God We Trust hat available for purchase. Fine.
B
We will do it.
C
And then she asks, can we reveal number three? Is that okay? So the hat.
B
Do you see it in the chat? Oh, yes. Yes, we can reveal this.
C
All right. So she asked, when is Daisy's baby coming? She's, of course, a member of the staff here. The baby has come.
B
We even got her a little. Little box of goodies.
D
Beautiful.
B
And the baby is healthy. We actually were okay.
D
Beautiful, beautiful baby.
B
Kind of on the small side. I was worried because Daisy likes to eat carrots and broccoli. And I'm like, eat up. Eat a steak. Eat a hamburger. No, Daisy doesn't do that sort of thing. And the baby was, like, trending on the small side, but then it came out, was totally healthy. Really good weight. Baby's doing great. Really cute baby.
C
Now, I will note, have not personally confirmed the existence of the baby. So this could all be a side.
B
I've seen pictures.
C
Oh, you can fake those, which is. We're gonna talk about.
D
I actually have a great Daisy deep fake baby.
C
We have to investigate this. I have to go confirm the existence.
B
This is the problem. I have a great one that's blackpilling me on all of the AI slop because he's trying to find out when we did the strike against Venezuela if a bomb landed on. What was it? The on Hugo Chavez is grave, basically. Right.
C
But it didn't really.
A
Well, that was.
B
We were seeing AI that suggested it was. Yes, but it was AI.
A
I don't think it was ever actually substantiated.
C
Yeah, it wasn't. No.
B
And.
C
But there was. There were videos that people were sharing that were saying, this is it on fire. But then, like, the BBC went, took a photo and mausoleum intact.
B
Listen, if. If, like, Blake Neff cannot ascertain the veracity of a certain image that is not AI or is AI, can you imagine what our parents are dealing with right now on Facebook?
A
Oh, they're cooked.
C
I mean, they're getting bamboozled by like, Facebook slop about giant pumpkins. Yeah, we've gotta make that. We've gotta make that.
B
You know. You know what? Like in ancient societies, they would go like, and bring their adult parents and to live with them. It was very communal or whatever. Or they would go live with their adult parents. In today's day and age, it's gonna be less about living with your adult relatives and elderly relatives is like monitoring their social media behavior.
C
It's gonna be endless. This is bad. And that's why we have to get to our first topic. I think we've got to lead with this now is deep pics are going to destroy Hollywood. So we have reached the point where we can use AI programs to just essentially replace all actors because they've gotten good enough at making people resemble other people. So we have a few highlight clips that are really representing this. So first we have. This is a man using AI to become. I don't. I've never watched this show, so Jack's gonna have to confirm. But apparently he's using AI to become different things from Stranger Things. Let's show 463. So we can see here he's gesturing and he just. It's all him just waving to the camera, but then it's constantly changing him to different people. Were those accurate representations of the. Of the Stranger Things?
A
Yes and no. So they're incredibly accurate. Except for the second to last one. He seems to have race swapped one of them.
C
The.
A
The character Dustin with the. He has the hat and the curly hair. Not this one. I think it's this one right here. So he's. He's a white character on the show, but this, this guy apparently has race swapped him. Because, hey, with AI, you know, if you want to. If you want to race swap someone, if you want to gender swap someone, it's. You can do so with the touch of a button.
D
And Are you sure that just doesn't Have a tan.
B
Is that.
D
It's tan.
B
It's. It's.
C
Yeah. I don't think they race swap. He looks. He looks white to me.
A
No, that's definitely. No, not this guy. The guy before. This guy dusted the one. It's not. This is. This is a Hopper. No, not this. There, right there.
D
He says it's hand Jack.
A
Have you ever. No, no, no, no.
C
Philly.
B
Don't ever see. I get this all the time. You guys think I'm Mexican because. Because I. Because I tan.
A
You are Mexican.
D
Hey, Jack, in Philadelphia, they call this a spray tan.
A
Yes, they did. Is that a little bit of soul? Jersey, too?
B
That's jersey.
A
But here's some other. My point, but whether he did or not is not my point. My. The point is, with AI, you could get whatever you want. You could do whatever you want. And if you're a filmmaker and. And Andrew, you have a Hollywood background, so maybe you could speak on this. But if you're a filmmaker, you can literally just pick and choose, like, whatever you want in your film. So you don't even need actors anymore.
B
I had a bunch of friends when I was living in Los Angeles that were, like, working at DreamWorks and that were working at Disney, you know, as animators. One of my buddies had, like, they had, like, this special card that he could get just as many people into the park as he wanted to. So that was actually the first time I went to Disneyland. I think I went when I was really little, but that's the first time that I could remember going. And he. I keep thinking about him with all of this stuff because he was really, really talented, like an actual artist. But now it's all like, what kind of job? I mean, I guess he could direct. I have direct AI.
D
I have a really interesting bend on this because I don't think that this is advanced enough where I could replace somebody for a full movie. But I do think, just even off that clip, think about, like, FOX News and CNN and msnbc. I don't trust MSNBC or whatever they call it now and at all. They can basically swap out anyone that they want to come onto msnbc. So all they have to do is get a sign off from that person probably to say, hey, we'll pretend like it's you.
C
Like, you could get a text, approved text, and then they just.
D
Or somebody else, an actor could just be like Hillary Clinton, for example. It's really hard to get Hillary Clinton to go on msnbc.
B
But.
D
But if Hillary Clinton approves it, maybe somebody goes on surrogate, like a campaign.
C
Surrogate is that person.
D
So the surrogate now becomes the person dude.
C
Or think about how that's going to screw up policy or other things. Think about other stuff you do.
B
Imagine how Joe Biden could have used this.
D
Yeah, like I mean they probably did.
A
They probably did was using this. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
C
What if Joe Biden himself was fake? Fate.
A
That was all AI and like the.
B
First time we saw the real Joe Biden was on the debate stage because they couldn't figure out the tape tech to how to like.
A
Yeah, exactly.
B
They couldn't get it. They couldn't get it first. The live stream sighting shows the first.
D
Trump's like wait, that's not actually Joe Biden.
C
I mean there's so many other spin offs. It's not just movies. So as an example, imagine if we had. So for example, let's say we had a movie. We had. We'll say a James Bond movie came out and you have an actor in it who's playing the villain, playing the love interest, playing someone and then they have a scandal they, they donated to the wrong, you know, defense fund for like someone or you know, they have.
A
A sexual harassment Kevin Spacey.
C
And then what if they just edit? They just literally swap them out of the movie so like their appearance isn't in the film anymore and like they're still in the movie.
A
I'm almost certain they did something like this with Kevin Spacey and they replaced him with like Chris Plummer when, when his scandal came out. I don't know if it was technology was used but they sort of like digitally inserted Chris Plummer into scenes. But it was new footage. It wasn't like an AI version. But they've already done stuff like this already where yeah, if you've got an actor who's associated with something, it's crazy but. But what I want, I want to take it to another level.
C
Yeah. Oh yeah. I mean that would be a relatively benign example.
A
The Princess Leia they had, they had Carrie Fisher because Carrie Fisher died when the one Star wars came out. And then they had like a young Carrie Fisher came on. I think they had, they did it with Alec Guinness. Star wars has done this a couple of times now.
B
This happens, this happens more than people think. And didn't it happen to James Gandolfini? Didn't he die in production or something? They had to like kind of change the storyline this last film or something.
C
Oh, of like the Saints of Newark or whatever.
B
I don't know. But maybe he died in that one. You know, I was just watching a TV show where that. Where they dedicated the episode. I was like, who is that? And I looked it up. I was like, oh, he died on episode four of a ten part series. So they just kind of wrote him out. But like now you could. I don't know. That's a moral conundrum.
C
Yeah. And. Or other ones. So for example, I don't think one thing that could happen. What if we got for example, people like Indiana Jones movies, but they don't like 85 year old Indiana Jones played by Harrison Ford.
A
And of course they've done that.
C
Harrison Ford is gone. What if we just got infinity Indiana Jones movies starring perpetually 40 year old Harrison Ford?
A
Well, they do that.
D
Honestly, that's the benefit of it all.
A
Yeah, they do at the very beginning.
C
But what if we did it indefinitely? We could get 2015 Indiana Jones or something.
D
Yeah, I would do that.
A
100%.
D
Half of the Indiana Jones would be good.
B
Yes. Okay. With Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci in the Irishman. That was like a famous one that they did.
D
There was another one recently done, awful.
B
Curious Case of Benjamin. Oh no, no. Star Wars.
D
And what was the. What's the, what's the one?
C
Rogue One, the one that was bad.
D
But people say it was good and they put the old guy in there from episode four.
C
Yeah, Grand Moff Tarkin.
D
Yeah, that's right.
C
Yeah.
B
No, I'm not.
C
We're not going to defend Rogue.
A
So that was pretty. So Andrew, this is what I want to get into. So. Because, because we're talking d. Aging. We're talking. But I think we're going to go into a wholly different level here. I think we're going to get to the point where people are just going to be sitting in front of a computer and they can just type it out. I want this actor and this one to look this way and this one to look this way and this one look this way. There's not gonna be any people at all. And you might even get to the point. So I think on Spotify right now, like the number one artist on Spotify is like an AI artist.
B
There was that worship song that was written by AI that was trending.
A
I saw that too. Yeah.
B
Spirit of God be in a worship song written by a computer. I'm sure it can. I mean God will use whatever he.
C
Wants, but the holy ghost in the machine.
A
Oh. So I guess the question is though, what. What does this do to that? That whole industry Is done. I'm sorry, they're just done.
B
Well, you know what's interesting, so I was thinking about this because if you see some of these, I think crypto did this, right? Where crypto has these. What do they call them? NFT or NFT.
A
NFTs.
C
NFTs.
B
NFTS. Right, NFTs. But people will buy like cartoon digital memes, basically, and there will be a value associated with them. So you're not wrong that there is a marketplace, Jack, that would support even financially completely made up images and we call them NFTs. Trump has done this. But. But you could do this with just about anything. And crypto is kind of this first wave of this. So if you created computer generated characters that had unique personality types and maybe they were just. Maybe they just really hit. Hit gold by creating some character that, you know, really appealed to people. In theory, you could own the trademark on the character you created. And then you could, as an agent or a manager of this AI character, you could then cast this character in movies. People could become enamored by a completely made up AI movie star. And that person that owns the rights to. To the AI would then be like. It'd be like owning Brad Pitt, but, like, you don't have to feed him and you don't have to house him and you don't have to pay. Yeah. Or you just own it.
C
A person could recreate themselves as a dynamic, popular political figure such as we actually had. The. The team went and they made me record a video of myself with the AI that those people were just waiting.
A
Are you serious?
C
Put up 480. Put up 480.
B
This could go really bad. Just. Oh, my gosh.
C
So that is me as Barack Obama making various facial gestures. That's also me with a moderate amount of hair. Did they get me with more hair now? It's just. No. I asked them to give me a luscious mane of hair. So that's me as an 80s hair metal star. That's kind of great. Although they kind of gave me a. Whoa. That's me as a DMV lady.
B
A DMV lady. You're kidding me.
A
Leticia James lady. What are you doing here on Dark Rhyme?
B
Whoa.
C
Oh, that is a creepy not. That is an uncanny Valley Palpatine.
A
That's not good.
C
That was. That was uncanny Valley Trump for sure.
B
Obama's not bad. Obama's pretty good.
C
We have our first response to that, which is.
A
Eek.
B
Yeah. Yeah, for real. I would have been curious to see him do like Abraham Lincoln.
C
Or something they could probably make.
B
It's like by the way, by the way, I want to like ban people doing this to Charlie. Like that. That's like candidly, that's where my head instantly goes. I'm like can. Well we pass a national law that if you mimic Charlie then the, the.
D
Good news is that they always mess up Charlie's. Whenever they do this, they mess up Charlie's facial features. Cuz he had kind of unique facial features and it kind of messes with it.
A
When it'll get to the point where it can do it, it'll, it'll get to the point where like this is, this is the worst it's ever going to look. You know, it's only going to get better from here. So you know, they will get to the point where they can do this with Charlie and we're cooked. Yeah, we're, you know, I, I guess they're, I guess because it goes down to like who owns the rights to your likeness. So I would imagine that that's like family and you know, certainly hope that nobody would, would think to do something like that. Like you know, you could have like a Charlie endorsements or stuff like that. Or just get him to say stuff. It'd be disgusting. It'd be completely disgusting.

A
These casualas.
C
Casualas. Casualas. We'll go with that. Casualis for djt. Just received a copy of the island of Free ice Cream by Jack Posobic for my grandbabies.
B
I've sold so many copies.
C
Thank you, Jack, for bringing back Smart learning. More of this, please. And then Dylan Ivy, a warrior of the chat. He's here all the time, says, keep moving forward. We appreciate all your efforts. And it's time to take all. It's going to take all of us to prep the 2026 midterms, but. But we have the 2026 energy. God bless. And then lastly, they didn't include the name on this one. That is from Zuzu's petals. That's another one we see a lot of. Howdy, Zuzu's. No way to this AI craziness. I would rather watch Doris Day movies in an old movie theater that only plays classic old movies. Before I support AI movies, I will do high school plays before AI.
B
Hold on, Zuzu. I completely agree. I'm just trying to play down the line here a little bit. Like, think. Think down the timeline. There will be people that own AI characters that then demand huge bucks because they know that their character that they created is gonna be marketable. And I was like, imagine like Steven Spielberg just created like some rando character with AI Cast him in a movie, and it's like, it does big numbers at the box office, and then people want to see that person again. That character, the uniqueness of that character, the storyline, the backstory, the actor, the intonation, the turns of phrases will all be trademarkable to this unique AI character. And they're going to start marketing movies with this. Because the only reason I think that this is true is because you got to not think like an Xer or a boomer or a millennial or even a Gen Zer. Candidly, you got to think like Asian teen. Like, go think of, like, make you put your head in like, Hong Kong 19 year old girl. They're already doing this stuff, like, on.
C
Some level and so many other things. You know, Zuzu says, I'd rather watch old movies in an old movie theater, but it's gonna be crazy. What if. What if someone like, how Many of us actually know every movie they made in the 1940s. What if someone made an AI pretend Doris Day, 1940s movie, and they say, oh, you know, you hadn't heard of this one yet. The style of an old 40s movie. And that's not even getting into. Okay, this is spoofing. This is just spoofing. Actors and actresses spoof your family members. And how many boomers are gonna be like, oh, someone in, you know, some scammer in Karachi, Pakistan, got audio recordings and videos of your granddaughter and then makes videos pretending to be your granddaughter live. Like, live action pretending to be them. And they use that to scam you for money. Well, so bad stuff is gonna go down.
A
The thing I wanted to add on Andrew, what he was saying, though, is not only are they going to create these actors, but think of it, they're gonna have a whole team dedicated to, like, create, like, playing that. That actor. So. And actress. So they'll have social media, they'll have tick tocks, they'll have reels on Instagram. And so. And yet all of these things will be created. It'll be totally written and scripted. So that'll be part of it as well. And the best part, Blake, I'm sure you can appreciate this too, is they're going to make sure that it has to be woke and it has to be like, it has to, you know, uphold all the right virtues as well and say all the right things. Even if it's not even a real person. They'll make sure that. So will it be possible to cancel an AI? And I would. An AI actor, and I would say yes, 100% that if. Because that's how that stuff works. It is a theology. It is not a. You know, it's not common sense. It's not ideology or. Excuse me. It's not a. You know, you're not an ideology.
C
It's a theology.
B
And so think about this too, Jack. Think about this.
A
All of that is gonna be scripted, though.
B
Yeah, but you have, like, Tomb Raider series, right? Which started as a video game. Then it becomes real life Angelina Jolie. But just imagine, instead of casting Angelina Jolie for it, you just create an AI version of the video game character that looks humanoid, Right? Flesh and bones. And it's not obviously not cartoon. And you just. That. That becomes a piece of intellectual property.
D
A completely new actor.
B
Yeah, yeah.
D
Like a fake, literally.
A
That's entirely my point. That's what they will do. You mentioned that. Because. Because they've never really been able to find A Tomb Raider. Lara Croft is the character. And I don't think they've ever really been able to find one actor. I think that series had been rebooted like three times or something.
D
Well, I mean, Angelina Jones was pretty good.
A
So then they rebooted it and then they rebooted it again.
B
Guys, breaking news that I just found out. You guys are gonna love this. This is actually a legit, like study out of the UK and Poland. Jack. Blue hair and blue in the blues. Dyeing your hair unnatural colors is associated with depression. And one of the, one of the instances that they're studying is borderline personality disorder. True story. I just tweeted about it, but I just. I had.
A
Wow, we're so surprised.
B
I had. I know I had. I said color me shocked.
D
So I actually have a theory behind that too.
B
Sorry. Angela is probably like, guys, we have.
D
A show, but that goes into unnatural colors is that I think that when people change their hair color dramatically, even that's like a more natural color, but dramatically. It also is a sign, I think.
B
Yeah. And they're. Jack, you said earlier today, I'm gonna bring this, this image up. Hold on, here we go. Angela's saying not all. He loves the combo. Hey, throw this one up. This is Jack, this is your ideology. Gotta throw it up. Studio. Well, that's. That's one. But that's this one. This one.
A
That's it.
B
This. This gave me chills today, watching this. This is a pink haired jihadi in the snow in Minnesota getting absolutely body slammed by ice.
A
Beautiful.
B
Oh, there's nothing wrong with that image. What if we get.
C
What if we get psyops though, where they just. They get us trapped in cocoons where they give us like fake AI slop of like based things happening and it lowers our bases, like energy to actually go do things like. No, could you imagine, like, imagine like some sort of containment thing on. On Facebook or Instagram and like people are. They're like lobotomized. It just gives them constant headlines like, Trump elected President of Earth and like Trump awarded Nobel Peace Prize.
B
No, it depends what they do though, because if they, if they're feeding me AI slop of pink hair. Jihadis getting like face planted in the snow. This, like, this is energy for me. Jack. Jack will literally fire off 48 tweets.
D
This is gas in the tank.
B
Yeah, this is great. This is fire.
A
No, this, this is incredible stuff. This is not D. But however, changing gears just just slightly. So something we should mention. Another breaking news, by the way, that I Saw was that, you know, and we're writing it up over a post Millennial. It's going to come out in a minute here that the number one book on all of Amazon right now in. In all books, the entire website is Reframe youe Brain, the user interface for happiness and success by Scott Adams. And for those who don't know, Scott Adams, the creator, Dilbert, the host of Coffee with Scott Adams, incredible author, multiple New York Times bestsellers, huge Trump supporter. Day one member of the MAGA movement did pass away this week. And, you know, AI is something that he talked about a lot. He talked a lot about AI, and there were a few times where he was working with a number of people sort of in his community and to create a sort of AI model of Scott Adams that could kind of live on online based on his work and based on these books that could live on beyond him. No, I don't think we're quite at the level where it can be interactive, but he did make a couple of videos where they were taking, you know, chapters of his book. A Reframe your brain Loser Think, win bigly. How to fail at everything and still win big. And they would. They had this AI, Scott Adams, and they would have him just reading to you from his book, but they made it look like he was on his podcast saying it to you.
B
And.
A
And gosh, I should have grabbed one of these videos before, before the show today. And if you watch this thing, you'd have no idea. You have no idea. You'd think it was exactly Scott. You'd say, that's. That's Scott. And he would say, look, I didn't actually read this. This is just. This is AI Scott reading from my book. So it's something that he wrote himself, like his own words. And then Joshua Lysak, who's my co author, was the editor on that book, Reframe your brain and some of the other ones. And so I wouldn't be surprised if Scott Adams has a project like this that's in the works. That's all I'm saying.
B
All right, so we might get a little. A little gift from Scott from beyond if he sanctioned it. It's way different than, like, in Charlie's instance.
A
Yeah, totally sanctioned. Right, right.
B
Charlie would have.
A
Sanctioned.
B
Charlie would never have greenlit something like that. Never, never. He was all about real.
C
All about real.
B
And I, as we all said, God's creation.
C
Yeah, you don't. Like, you know, whenever people would say, like, oh, the AI Charlie. Well, Charlie is not with us. Charlie is somewhere else and we cannot pretend otherwise. I think it would be morally wrong. Not just gross.
B
Gross.
C
It is gross. But that, that is getting at the.
B
Moral part of it. All right, we have our next topic.
A
He was anti AI. Like some people are militantly anti AI.
B
No, he loved using it. But recreate.
A
I think he loved using it. He was really into it.
B
No, he was really into, but not like he was obviously. No, no, no, exactly. So yeah, to be clear. No, that's a fair critique. Charlie was very pro AI, actually. He would use it on the show. He would use it to research things. He would use it on the fly. But he got really into getting good at prompts. So he was always like tweaking his prompts to get AI to do what it. What he wanted it to do. So he's, he was, you know, he was good with it. But yeah, just I think recreating human beings, that's, that's sketchy. And by the way, this just shows to go you. This whole only fans models, you know, gaming the O1 visas.
A
Only fans are done. Only fans is done.
B
Yeah. Like you don't like only fans, you know, I mean, this is a question is, is there. Is their job secure? Right? Because yeah, there's a lot of perverts. But like you could have, I mean some of these, you could, you could create women onlyfans AI models out of this. We don't.
C
I mean they already have. They already have.
B
Well, we don't need to have. We don't need to get into.
A
Know if they. If. How. How would you know? Right?
B
So this, I think there's a.
A
There's a good horror movie about this called. I think it's called Cam, where, you know, this, this girl gets like. She's one of these cam girls, but then she gets like some, I don't know, they don't really explain it. There's some demon, I guess, takes over her social media, takes over the. And then she's inside the camera basically controlling different things. And the, you know, the real girl's dead or whatever. Point being is, how would you even know? Like literally, how would you even know that the girl you're talking to is a real girl?
B
It's like catfishing, but. But I mean, it's steroids.
C
If they can do it there, it's 100%. It's only going to get the. I think the most optimistic thing is it will have to revive in person interactions because it's just the only thing you'll be able to.
B
That's the only way. Ye.
A
Well, Blake, Blake, here's, here's, here's what I got to say though. Blake, make sure you do the FaceTime because when you're on FaceTime, they can't run their filters, they can't cast glamour. Because, Blake, I would, I would hate to see you get into a situation like you did, you know, last, last fall.
B
What?
D
The whole thing.
A
I mean, obviously we don't need to get into it on air, but you.
D
Know, that whole situation, you know.
C
All right, all right, Jack. I bet that joke would last.
A
We don't, we don't need to talk about Honduras with the AI Cat.
B
Blake is dismantled.
C
Alrighty, Jack. Whatever you say. Whatever you say, Jack. All right.
D
The one with the AI catfish. You don't remember.
C
Do we have the, do we have an AI catfish? We could probably turn, we could probably turn Tyler into a giant catfish.
B
We paid for it. We paid for this.
C
By the end of the show.
B
All right, let's get all three of.
C
These guys into catfish by the end of the show, please. Anyway, so we have to talk about Barbies.
B
So Mattel, meanwhile, half the audience is like, barbies?
C
Yeah, we're talking about Barbies. Millions, millions of gay men play with, with Barbies, don't they, Jack? Anyway, so they've made a. There's a new Barbie doll and it has come out and it is the autistic Barbie. So first off, let's set this up. There's someone who's doing kind of a profile of it. So we have clip 466.
B
This is funny.
A
So I was a little concerned when I heard that they were coming out with an autistic Barbie because autism is a spectrum. It affects everybody differently and it's also an invisible disability. So she has an AAC device, which I think is one of the most.
C
Important details about her.
A
I think AAC devices are really important.
C
To show that's representation that really, really matters.
A
Then she's wearing headphones. She has a little fidget toy.
C
And I really like her clothing. It's very casual and cozy.
A
You know, a lot of autistic people.
C
Have senso issues with clothes.
A
Her eyes are slightly looking sideways, like they're not looking straight. And you know, a lot of autistic.
C
People have issues with direct eye contact.
A
Which I thought was a really cool little detail. But the last thing I want to say about her is I'm really glad that they did not choose like a white, blonde hair, blue eyed, standard Barbie. I'm assuming that she is a person of Color. Because whiteness is so overrepresented in autism spaces, and autism affects everybody.
B
So glad she wasn't a white girl.
C
Well, so as it happens, we sent staffer Emma. Emma Kate on a saga across the Phoenix area. And one. Apparently, this is a hot item because we had to check three different stores to find this, but we have it.
B
Stop it.
C
Honestly, take a look at it.
A
Wow. Like, did you just. Did you just buy an autistic Barbie?
C
No, the show bought an autistic Barbie.
B
So do we get to write this off as, like.
C
The person who will have to approve this expense and therefore is responsible for it is probably Andrew.
D
How much was.
B
Wait, was autistic out of somebody's pages?
D
Was Autistic Barbie more expensive?
C
I don't know if it was. I.
B
Mean, it will tell you a lot if it's. If there was a premium on this.
D
Oh, my gosh. It comes with all these.
B
Wait, her eyeline is all these vaccines.
D
Too, at the bottom. Did you see this?
A
Her eyeliner.
B
It comes with.
D
It comes with her whole vaccine schedule.
B
Is there literally a Covid shot? No, it's this, like the MN or the. What is it?
A
The MNRA M&MRNA now with more.
D
More vaccinations than any other Barbie in American history.
B
Wow.
A
She's got a. She's got bottled fluoride water.
D
Yeah, that's right.
C
No, that's right.
B
She's got, like, all seed oils.
D
She's been drinking.
A
You can see it's everywhere.
D
She's been drinking straight from the tap.
C
She does have the fidget spinner on her hand here. And so that's. I know that's a popular.
B
This is real.
C
Yeah, this is real.
B
She has not. She has irl.
C
She has headphones on.
B
Emma found this. Yeah, it's cool. Where did she find it?
C
I think a Walmart or something.
B
No kidding.
C
And then the AAC device. So I guess she's presumably nonverbal, because I think AAC is. If they have that, they can use it to communicate where they can point at letters or point at concepts, because a lot of them are actually literate.
B
Yeah.
C
Or otherwise where. But they're just nonverbal.
B
So you saw. You saw Autistic Barbie. The video on it. Like, let's just contrast. This is an important contrast in our culture. Saw autistic Barbie there. Now we go back to 1971 Barbie. Malibu Barbie. 468 Malibu Barbie.
E
She's Mattel's super new suntanned Barbie.
C
Hey, Barbie's got a golden tan now.
A
With Sunny surfer gold hair.
E
Malibu Barbie has her own beach towel and sunglasses and Malibu friends, all with that suntan skin that makes them look.
A
Great wherever they go in any of their groovy new fashions.
E
Groovy Malibu Barbie, Skipper and Ken.
C
I'm really.
A
I was literally just gonna say that we used to be a proper country.
C
I'm.
B
We used to be a country.
C
That girl's hair was identity, the Barbie hair in a way that I found disconcerting. Look at the girl playing with the Barbie.
B
What?
D
I don't know.
A
Maybe someone in the chat says the.
C
Girl in the ad had the same hair as Barbie.
B
Maybe they cast her like that.
D
Maybe.
A
How long before Troon Barbie do we. Do they have a Trune Barbie yet?
B
No, we just got the autistic.
C
I mean, so they have on the side here some alternative Barbies that we.
B
Have, only fan Barbie.
C
Oh, wow. I mean, to be maximally progressive, they probably need to. But I think what's interesting here, they have a variety here. They have three different wheelchair Barbies. They have wheelchair Ken, wheelchair normal Barbie, and wheelchair black Barbie.
A
No, they had it 2022. There's been a trans Barbie for three years, apparently.
B
There's literally three different wheelchair Barbies. What.
D
But is there autist Ken? And I want to know what podcast he listens to.
C
Is there, like, paradox gamer Ken who comes with his computer that has his map on it where he's conquering autistic.
D
If there's no autistic Ken, this is.
B
There are three different Barbies in a wheelchair. Wow.
C
Yeah.
B
Yeah. I don't feel like that is proportional to the population.
C
And. And it's the old timey, you know, push.
B
You gotta push him.
C
Do. Do people mostly do that or do they mostly use, like, powered chairs these days?
B
Like, you know, I genuinely don't know. No, I think. I think if you can push yourself, you choose.
C
It's good to stay in shape.
B
Yeah, it's like your form of, like, Madison Cawthorn. Yeah. Around on that thing. And I've seen both.
A
I've seen both.
B
It depends how preference someone says.
C
Where's that? Might be too dark of a joke to make.
A
By the way, I did pull up, guys, it looks like Laverne Cox, who is a. A trans actor, actress, whatever, has had a Barbie since 2022. So we got the first Trune Barbie in 2022. It's been the back of this box.
D
Also has thick Barbie back here.
C
Thick Barbie.
A
Thick Barbie. Is that what you just said?
D
There's thick Barbie on back here. Did you notice that?
C
It's funny how they go.
A
Like. That's the one that Andrew would like.
C
It's not named that. She's just a little bit girthier.
B
What.
C
What I think is funny.
D
Sturdy. She's very sturdy. She's hard to push over.
A
Actually, Actually. Thick Barbie. Thick Barbie might be a good segue into one of our other topics.
B
Yeah, it's. So what I will say.
C
What I will say is interesting is.
A
The New York Post article.
C
I remember. I remember in the 90s the controversy was all that, like, Barbie wasn't a feminist figure, so they had to give Barbie all the different jobs. So you got physicists, like scientists Barbie and eventually Barbie. Astronaut Barbie.
B
I remember we have not had a woman president.
C
I can. Because.
A
Thank you, Donald Trump. Thank you.
C
Because of things that might make three times the target audience for toys like this. I can remember specific ads from when I was in the 1998. I remember the Olympic figure skater Barbie inspired by Tara Lipinski. I remember the song they played.
B
Go for it, Tara.
C
We're cheering for you.
B
Olympic skater barbecue. Go for the boost.
C
I haven't seen that ad in 30.
B
Years and I remember it.
D
Guys, I. I'll say this.
A
I have no idea.
D
Exploitation of the autistic community. I really.
B
1998, genuine.
D
I think this is genuinely like a little bit of exploiting people. But I would say this is. That this is better. The chat just said this is better than. Than having furry Barbies and only fan Barbies.
C
I think it's fine.
A
Like, I don't think we're gonna get.
D
It's only a matter of time before we get Barbie.
B
No, we're going to get furry Barbies for sure.
A
Furry Barbies.
C
Like, I think it's fine. I don't think it's bad to say like a kid can get a doll that resembles them.
B
Like.
C
Yeah, I think it's fine. I don't think it's exploitative. Like, no, well, it's approved by the autism self.
D
Like, but like, I'm saying they're like, taking advantage of like the, the idea that they're making. They're trying to like, make.
C
I mean, this was trying to make money. Who cares? Like, we believe in making money.
B
Like.
D
No, I know, but they're. They're.
A
I want.
D
They're doing on the back of like, people who are disabled.
C
I think the target audience is the disabled people. Like, buy the spectrum.
D
Are they though? Because you buy.
C
I didn't buy it. A staffer bought it.
B
No, technically, I think I bought. Yeah, he bought it. Andrew.
C
Andrew's the one who bought it.
A
So you manipulate.
B
I am taking it.
C
I had.
D
I had a great dunk of a response there. If I just tried to be like a little careful.
B
I didn't personally. I want to.
A
I want to.
B
Jack. Take us to. Take us to New York Post.
A
Can we get. Well, I just want to ask like if they make like, like couples. Like, could we get like since you're talking about Tara Pinsky, I want to get Nancy Kerrigan.
C
I got it right.
D
I mean the Olympics are happening right now and instead of talking about Olympic Barbies.
A
So please. Blake, earlier you were talking about a certain type of person that's really into Barbie even when they're older and remembers Barbie commercials from even years ago. I'm just. I'm just, just connecting dots here. I'm just, just.
C
Yeah, I know. And as we all. And then we establish that Andrew bought this doll. So he might be in that group.
B
Don't bring me into this. He might be in that group of heterosexuality. Here, here's the. You know, but hold on. Actually. So you guys can educate me. Emma, I. I came in cold to this whole topic.
A
The. But, but, but. On the orders of Blake.
B
Blake. Well, okay. Yeah, exactly.
C
Well, okay. So. So I guess you just.
A
So responsibility for the purchase falls.
B
Okay, hold on, hold on. But no, this is actually important. What do you call these Disney like freaks that are, you know, like 40 year olds? Like Disney adults. What is that about?
C
Well, if Disney adults are.
B
This feels similar, like similar vein of 100% serious.
C
The men who collect Barbies, there's basically like gay men who really like Barbie like from that dimension. And then just.
A
There's a whole.
C
There is like My Little Ponies too. My little. That's a difference. Yes. The MLP guys, there's like.
D
I watched this whole like, like documentary.
C
There are multiple documentaries on guy.
A
Like men.
D
Like weird men who are obsessed with My Little Ponies.
B
Yeah, there was a shooter recently that.
A
Yeah, those are like school shooters, basically.
B
Yeah. That would like. They found out that generate school shooter.
D
There's something like super connected with it. It'. This is very scary.
B
This is true. It is true.
C
100%.
B
It's a brand new year and a brand new opportunity to change the world for the better. This is one of our most important partners. It's easier than you might think. You can save babies by providing ultrasounds with preborn together during this Sanctity of Human Life month. We're going to save babies right here on the Charlie Kirk show to show the world that not only do we believe life is precious, but we're going to do something about it. Your gift to preborn will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice. What better way to start this new year than to join us in saving babies? And $28 a month will save a baby a month all year long. A 15,000. And I know there's some of you out there that can do this. A $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come and will also save moms from a lifetime of regret. So start this year right by being a hero for life. Call 833-850-2229. That's 833-850-2229. Or click on the preborn banner at charliekirk.com today. Wait, go to the New York Post. Eric, this is. This is. This is like a. All I see is BBL implants from.
C
Okay, yeah, we had to get this. There was a lot of hype for it.
B
So.
C
All right, we'll go into this. This is also about, I guess body stuff. And note that Andrew is the one who's really excited to read about it.
B
No, since Andrew wants to talk about in the premise. So Jack. Jack was prefacing or promoing our thought crime on Bandit's war room and you said that Bannon about spit out. Spit out his coffee when you mentioned this topic. That's why I want to.
A
Yeah, undead, but almost lost it. Wait, I don't have the actual. I don't have the actual article handle.
B
It's 471 here.
C
All right, well, it's the article.
A
Just pull it up. It.
C
Yeah, so let's. Let's throw it up. But basically what it is is. Oh, man, that text is extremely tiny. I can't read that. But basically the people are getting the.
A
Opposite of what this will do for you.
C
Yes. So people are getting Brazilian butt lifts. That is what a BBL is. And breast implants.
B
Remember? 11 year old from.
A
Well, okay, but you're the one who wanted to talk about it.
B
I didn't know what it was.
C
They're from donated cadavers. So they're. They're taking corpses and people who need to get some.
B
It's off the shelf. Fat.
C
Yeah. Off the shelf.
A
This is the Kardashian look. Right? So this is. This is that Kardashian look that's like kind of the rage or has Been the rage for a while, you know, prior to Sydney Sweeney. Like the Sydney Sweeney body taking, you know, taking back a lot of the. A lot of the spectrum, a lot of the airspace on this. And so, yeah, so across the country, a growing number of patients are turning to injectable fillers. So fillers are all over the place. This also came up on Stranger Things, by the way. Not a bbl, but the lip fillers from dearly Made from the dearly departed donated fat in order to lift, plump and sculpt their bodies. I feel like I need to read this in a different kind of voice, including for hot ticket procedures like Brazilian butt lifts and breast enhancements. Many of us in New York City are very excited about this, particularly because our patients are sometimes very thin or maybe have already had liposuction, said Dr. Melissa Doft, a board certified plastic surgeon in Manhattan in an Instagram video. The injectable filler is made from donated tissues from human cadavers that's been specially processed for cosmetic use. Can you sell. So like, can you sell your.
B
This is my question family member that is like, hey, got to make.
A
Who gets paid for the butt fat? Like, does.
C
Does my.
B
I need to know this.
A
Would my wife get paid for my butt fat? Not that there's a lot because, I mean, you know, I've been working out a little bit lately, so there's not a lot. But you know, if we're. We're talking about selling butt fat, you know, and then, and then Tyler lost all his. So there's nothing there.
B
Yeah, Tyler is not a. Not a.
A
But who.
B
Who gets candidate.
A
That's what I want.
B
Filler called aloe clay hit the US market last year. Like who. At the fda, what is it? Like, who. Who approved this aloe?
A
I feel like RFK doesn't know about this.
B
I guarantee no. You know what'd be funny is if you asked him like, why did you guys, you know, green light cadaver butt filler? And he'd be like, did you greenlight.
A
The butt fat, Bobby?
B
Did you green light it here? I gotta ask Alex Clark. I gotta ask the maha expert about the. The cadaver butt fat. I'd say that less than probably 5% of board certified plastic surgeons have it. Dr. Sachin M. Shrid Harini Harani, who began offering the procedure at his Manhattan clinic Lux Surgery in early. Gosh, these guys are such like luxurgery. I mean, come on, this guy is a grifter. He's just like, this stuff is so gross.
C
It looks like injecting someone with like a candle. This is very, very icky looking. Oh, you know what's crazy, by the way? So this, the thing, they're using this for the bbl, it's actually like one of the most like high risk cosmetic surgery. I think it's the most high risk cosmetic surgery.
A
Why is it high risk?
C
It has. Apparently you can get something called a fat embolism and die. And there's like a death rate of like 1 in 3,000, which is pretty high for a cosmetic thing. The technical term for it is gluteal fat grafting, which is a great name for any procedure. Yeah, gluteal fat butt fat grafting onto the body. And it is a very fast growing aesthetic procedure in the United States.
B
I don't.
C
Well, there are several dozen fatalities.
B
You know what this is? Can I, can I. Yeah, but you know, it's funny. It's all these weird Al.
A
There we go.
B
Skinny chicks price skinny white chicks that do this.
D
Can I inject something here? So I guess.
A
Can I inject something? Is it more butt fat?
B
Interject.
D
Yeah, inject something. Inject something here. Interject. So after World War II, there was like a huge hubbub in America because there was all these rumors that human body parts were being used in common cosmetic products, just in general. Like this was like a big, big deal where people like got freaked out. And I like, everybody believed it. Like everyone believed that, you know, the Nazis and other bad people were using human parts to. That went, that went into cosmetics and, and that was debunked. And even like there's the people today that still believe that. A lot of that. But I think this is like super weird that cadaver fat. Like basically what everyone freaked out about in the, in the 40s and 50s and maybe probably beyond that is basically what's happening now with these injections that they're using cadaver fat. They're using cadavers to inject into people. That's pretty sick stuff.
B
You know what's ironic about our conversation?
A
Or in China with the forced organ harvesting of prisoners. Falun Gong.
D
Yeah.
B
By the way, you know what's ironic about our conversation thus far? The way it's traveled is it's gone from complete elimination of need of humans in Hollywood, complete AI to this like weird insertion of humans in a way that shouldn't be inserted. Does that make sense? It's kind of like the one place you wouldn't want IRL humans is in your butt fat from a cadaver. And yet the one place you thought you would want humans is in a Hollywood movie and yet we're getting rid of them. I'm just saying we're living in strange times. Very strange times. Blake doesn't seem convinced.
A
I still want to know who.
C
I don't want to say, but this.
B
Is a butt fat dilemma. Have we.
C
I've been told they have. They have created an important AI video that we should do display. So let's show it right now. That is us as as all a bunch of catfish as requested.
A
Wow.
C
I don't think those are really. They don't really show Whispers so they don't seem to be catfish.
B
But this looks like a Star Wars.
A
Oh, that's amazing.
C
Yeah, yeah, it's like, you know, Gloop Splato or whatever they name those Star wars characters.
B
I definitely like mine the most, I have to say.
C
Based on.
B
I guess based on nothing.
C
Look at that vacant stare of the Jack. Of the Jack catfish. It's like there's nothing.
A
Sounds about right.
B
Okay, I think I'm done with butt fat.
C
All right, well, let's forge ahead. We have a. We still have more fun stuff to get to. So we have to talk about the HR game out of the uk. So this is a very fun one, you guys. I'm gonna have to guide you guys through this a little bit. But basically the British government paid somebody, probably paid someone a very inflated amount of money to make an interactive HR style game about how you as a young person should not be entrapped by radical politics because it could be illegal and you might go to jail.
B
This feels like that one movie that became a big deal. What was that movie where it was like a white kid gets radicalized and stabbed somebody or something.
C
Oh, adolescence. And like everyone had to watch it and they were like interrogating the politicians.
D
I was gonna say Manji, but.
C
Falling.
B
Down actually was like Robin Williams. Yeah, but this is what's crazy. Everybody knows it's the like immigrant communities that are like raping the women that are like stabbing people on the subways or the tube or whatever and that they make this movie adolescence and they, they try and tell that story but then they race swap for a young white British kid. Like. Absolutely. Stuff is infuriating.
D
It's intentional.
B
Alright. Psyop is real. So.
C
So this is a game. This game is called Pathways. I think they'll leave it to clip. Yeah, well, so what happens is you play through the game and so we're gonna do that site. We need to some setup here. It's called Pathways. It was funded by the British government. I believe it was made for the north of England or something like, I think east. East Yorkshire or something was made this. But let's just dive into it. This is the intro thing. So you, when you play it, you choose to play as a boy or a girl, regardless of who you pick. I'm not making this up. The character is named Charlie and he is a young adult. So let's play. Clip 474.
E
Charlie was enjoying an online game with friends.
A
I like how this is starting.
E
Charlie had not long started attending a new college in East Riding and they were so relieved to have made new friends.
C
Having recently left school, Charlie's real happy right now.
A
Swimming in.
E
Charlie has started browsing new games and websites that some of the new friends use.
A
No adult sites. Charlie don't do.
E
Sometimes though, the people on these websites say things that seem off even slightly concerning.
B
Slightly concerning.
E
Someone on this website has encouraged Charlie to download a video, but Charlie is unsure.
A
It's thought crime.
B
A clip from this show.
E
How should Charlie react if you can't read it?
C
The top result is tell a trusted adult. This is a college student.
A
Download it. Download.
E
Charlie wanted to continue being.
A
Yeah.
C
But he chose. They chose the radical option, which was to download and watch the video.
A
Let's go.
E
Charlie downloaded the video and shared it with different people online.
B
Different people online. The accents.
E
Charlie felt.
B
What is it?
A
Oh, my gosh.
E
It's Charlie Kirk talking about pilots and also sharing it. Deep down, Charlie wasn't sure if this was the right thing to do, as some of the ideas in the video were extreme and violent. It's important to remember that downloading or streaming certain content can lead to a terrorist.
A
This is a video of a guy walking down the street in Minneapolis.
B
No, hold on. You missed that. It was like it could result in a terrorist offense.
C
Yeah, they're like, if you download and watch certain videos, you can go to prison in the UK that is 100% real. And so this goes through. There's like six different phases. And what's. What's making this amazing. So this amazing is what happens like.
A
In the next part for the context, are they making kids like play this in school? Is this like a training thing?
C
I think it was, yeah. It was the intent that you could use it in like high school age kids, I think. So like before you go out into the world and start attending college, you have to be careful because you might watch illegal videos of Charlie Kirk that will cause you to go to prison. Basically because this reminds Me.
A
So when I was.
B
The name was.
A
When I was in the military, we had to, we had to. You know, you had to watch these like compliance videos once a year on different things. And it was very similar. Like you had to play a game and pick the right answer, go all the way through anyone. Anyone's in the military cyber awareness challenge, all that crap. You'll know exactly what I'm talking about. Where you'd have to take it every. Every year, then every quarter. And then it was like, oh, but does your. Does your training officer have the certificate because you didn't do it yet or whatever. And like they would force you to do this. And it just reminds me of that. But of course, for all children.
B
Yeah, this is like HR commissars coming for your kids. But like.
A
Yeah, literally, like I'm getting PTSD about that.
B
Well, I'm trying to figure out what it is about the UK psyche that makes them so prone and like vulnerable to the worst excesses of this mind virus.
C
Freedom loving people got on the Mayflower.
D
No, it's.
B
Well, that.
D
That is part of it. Truly like part of it.
B
Well, I think they lost all the good guys in World War I. I think that's a huge part of it.
D
So many good people left. I mean even after World War II, like so many British people that were like freedom lovers came to the.
B
Everybody without an ounce of testosterone or something.
D
Yeah, I mean the Americanization of Western Europe definitely created, I think, a vacuum. But I think more importantly it's. It's the whole commie concept. Right. It's like they've just built so. So tall in some of these places. Like even this is the problem in Europe. And so many places, places that were once considered extremely. And this is happening in America too. Extremely conservative are building straight upwards.
B
Oh, you're talking about actual physical buildings. I thought you were like symbol. I think you were talking physically like a symbolic communist built so much. No communist on top of it. You know, there's.
D
There's something that's tied to when people live on top of each other.
B
Oh, I totally agree with this.
D
Are closer together.
B
You can actually find where there is a. I remember doing this because Charlie came under all this scrutiny because we were talking, Charlie said something and then he got roasted by like Media Matters or something like that. And then it got Daily Beast or whatever. And he was talking about how urban density creates libs. People that live far apart, not on top of each other. And rentals are conservatives. And there actually is a density number like people Per square mile at which you can watch it. Cuz I did a whole deep dive. I wish I remembered this. But a density where people flip from Republican to liberty. Right. There's like actually a statistical number in which you can figure out when people like how many people you can put in a square mile before they turn lib. And that should be the guiding principle to go like less dense than that.
C
There are right wing societies that are denser than the United States and there are highly decent like.
B
Well that's actually a fair thing.
A
I don't know.
B
It's multivariate. You're right, you're right. I know the other variables in America though. It's like a thing. Completely a thing.
A
Well, I mean in America.
B
But why, why are cities so. Why I don't.
C
Well, I think cities kind of attract lib type people. Also we've turned cities.
B
You think it's self selecting then?
C
Well, yeah, I think there's a lot of self selection. I think who actually lives in cities. You have like urban underclasses that we subsidize to live there. And then you often have.
B
Curious. So like in the 70s when cities were much whiter, were they voting more conservative?
C
I mean there has been eras where New York City would sometimes vote Republican in elections. I think the last time they did it was the 20s.
A
Nancy Pelosi's father was the Republican mayor of Baltimore.
B
Fascinating.
C
Yeah, I think at least he may.
A
Have been anything about Democrat mayor, but he was a white mayor of Baltimore.
C
Anything about how cities vote today is downstream of the fact that like in the 60s we blew up Democrat, we did a giant demo. We basically did like ethnic cleansing of cities where there would be a riot and everyone would have to leave and all of that.
A
So if you don't talk about the white flight and the, the soft ethnic cleansing of the 1960s through the 1990s in the urban areas. I don't think you can explain this properly because it's not just density, it's about who's actually there. So it's not just demographic replacement. There's a qualitative function to this as.
B
Well rely reliant to that part.
C
For example, Miami is one of the most dense of major American cities. It's all high rises right along the ocean. And Miami was one of the most Republican cities in the last election.
D
Yeah, but not where the high rises are.
B
No, there are.
C
Down there are downtown Miami precincts.
B
Miami, Miami.
D
For Trump.
B
That's on Staten Island. Or Orthodox.
D
Okay, but the point.
B
Yeah, yeah, the but the but that's the thing. It's the people that live there. I mean, it's fair enough. I mean, because even in Miami they're all like Venezuelan, you know, diaspora or Cuban refugees.
D
We can't overlook the greater concept here though. And I want to just say this with Jack too, is that commies love people on top of each other because something happens with a, my, you're able. The hive mind, culture and concept. It actually is far more maneuverable when you have people all living right on top of each other and with each other. I'm telling you, it's just there's a reason why communists always have that happen. They build up.
B
This is like a tragedy of the common story too, right, where like you get, you get this in like Russia and stuff.
D
Plus lack of ownership. Lack of ownership.
B
What about it?
A
Well, in China, Chairman Mao was not able to get support in the city. So he went, famously went on the long march to the rural areas. And it was in the rural areas where he recruited for basically the poor, you know, for the, the Red Army. And then there was really a city or, you know, conflict of the rurals versus the urbans. And Shanghai Shek had more support in the urban areas. I mean, I, I, I get what you're saying.
D
I mean, that's what Lenin did too. But here, that, I mean, that's, that was like the, the Russian Revolution to a certain extent too. But I mean, yeah, look, I mean the peasants, but that, that was more the has versus have nots that, that, that entire concept. My point is after they've constructed communism, they want to control people. And to that point is that, you know, we've injected and everything can be right simultaneously we've injected more poor people into the cities.
B
Yeah, right.
D
And injected.
B
Well, that because, no, but hold on. Well, from the 60s, you're right. So no, part of this is why you. Ownership.
D
This is lack of home ownership, lack of land ownership.
B
Well, this is. Blake could give us a history lesson on what drove. Because like, you had the, you had the Southern California scenario where a bunch of like there was basically rumors were going around in the Southern United States that like California there was no racism. So like all of these black communities from the south and maybe urban poor centers even in the north came. They went to south la. And so South LA used to be kind of just this like suburban area. Then all the blacks moved in. And then you had, this led to like Watts riots. It led to the dynamic that you ended up seeing the 60s and 70s because you had a militarized police force or a bunch of like World War II vets that, like, that's how they dealt with stuff. So. But then what you also had was the 90s, they got regentrified. So in the 90s, you had Mayor Richard Reardon in LA, then you had Mayor Giuliani in New York. So then they had all these police flooding in. And then you had regentrification in the early 2000, late 90s, early 2000s. So then you had a bunch of like, the cities got safer, crime dropped. I just don't know what happened demographically in those cities. I mean, overall, the country was becoming less white, was more. More mixed. But I'm just curious, like, I haven't actually studied that. I'm curious.
C
It just. I mean, it's complicated because cities are different when they got blown up, happened at different times. Some of them weren't actually blown up. They were fine or they were growing. That's where you get a lot of.
B
You know, like Tampa.
C
Yeah. And. But it's also. You see things like, you know, Phoenix. Phoenix was a city that was booming. Phoenix didn't get blown up in this parade. That's when Phoenix explodes. Phoenix, people move to Phoenix from cities.
B
Austin. Austin is a city that is. Austin's a modern one, but it's be. But it. And I would think Austin's kind of a weird one because it's gotten so liberal. But it was always kind of known.
C
It was always. It's always liberal. It's just gotten bigger.
B
That's a self selection issue because it's.
C
A lot of self.
B
It was like, keep Austin weird. So all the weirdos moved there and kept it. I feel like a lot of this is self.
C
It's self selection. It's cultural intensification. So cities are bluer and rural areas are redder. That's just also happened across the board.
B
But I've seen this in Dallas, where Dallas was kind of this conservative urban place.
C
It wasn't. Dallas has always been gay. It has to be known.
B
Fort Worth is still conservative.
C
Fort Worth is less conservative than it was.
B
It's less. Houston is now liberal. But that's. A lot of immigrants have moved in. Houston demographically is completely.
C
Houston got a lot of. A lot of people fled Katrina to Houston and never left. Left and.
B
Oh, really?
C
Yeah, like large, like tens of thousands of people. That was like.
B
So you got a bunch. You got a bunch of these.
A
You got a bunch of other big.
B
Cities, poor communities that like, left. Okay, interesting. I didn't know that. This is Lane Schoenberger Chief investment officer and founding partner of Y Refi.
A
It has been an honor and a.
B
Privilege to partner with Turning Point and for Charlie to endorse us.
A
His endorsement means the world to us.
B
And we look forward to continuing our partnership with Turning Point for years to come. Now here, Charlie in his own words tell you about why Refi.
A
I'm going to tell you guys about why refi.com that is yrefy.com why refi is incredible. Private student loan debt in America totals about $300 billion. Why refi is refinancing distress or defaulted private student loans. You can finally take control of your student loan situation with a plan that works for your monthly budget. Go to yrefi.com that is why refi.com do you have a co borrower? Why Refi can get them released from the loan. You can even skip a payment up to 12 times without penalty. It may not be available in all 50 states. Go to yrefi.com that is yrefy.com let's face it, if you have distress or default to student loans, it can be overwhelming because of private student loan debt. So many people feel stuck. Go to yrefi.com that is yrefy.com Private student loan debt relief why refi.com.
C
I want to continue in this game because it actually gets amazing with the next bit because it goes for several segments and this next one is great. So this is. We didn't clip the whole part. So the segment that it is is this guy, your Charlie, he's he's going to class at the community college and he's studying for something and he's going about to get an important grade but it's not. It's not a good one and it leads to something interesting. Let's play 475.
E
Charlie is receiving an important grade on a piece of work they submitted for their hospitality course at college. Charlie put in a lot of effort for this work and is excited to receive good feedback. Charlie takes a seat in class and waits to get their grade. To their disappointment, Charlie doesn't do as well as they expect. They got 60 out of 100 for their work, but they wanted at least 75 out of 100. To make matters worse, somebody else got 80 out of 100 and the teacher said that this person has received a job offer.
C
For those who can't see it, this person is shown as like a Charlie.
E
Has applied to dozens of jobs but hasn't had any luck yet.
D
I love how they refer to Charlie.
E
As a somebody else in the class tells Charlie that this is proof that immigrants are coming to the UK and taking our jobs.
C
And then Charlie has the choice. Does he agree with what this person said? And it's this woman, Amelia.
E
Charlie approached the classmate angrily. He agreed with the ideas and began shouting about them. In class, the teacher let Charlie know that the school has a zero tolerance on hate speech. The teacher was concerned by Charlie's outburst and tried to get to the bottom of it. Charlie became more agitated and ended up having to sit alone for the duration of the week's lessons. Because of the hurtful things they said.
C
Charlie has to go to community college detention.
D
Did you not notice that they kept referring to Charlie as Yes, they use.
C
Them as they now I will.
A
I'm still confused about that.
C
Well, so they do. In the. In the game you can choose to be a boy or a girl. And in both of them, your name Charlie. And I think they just recorded it once. So I don't think it's super duper pronoun police thing. I think it's mostly laziness.
B
I don't know. I don't know.
C
Whatever. But now we have only a couple more. But I want to do this one. This is 476. Let's continue. This is. This is the next appearance of Amelia.
E
Amelia, Charlie's close friend, has made a video encouraging young people in Bridlington to join a political group that seeks to defend English rights. Amelia encourages Charlie to join a secret group on an app Charlie hasn't heard of before. Charlie isn't sure whether to join, explore further or ignore.
C
And of course we have to choose to join this group defending English rights.
A
Based.
D
Charlie.
E
The friend posted was so funny. They couldn't believe how many likes Amelia's memes were getting. It was inspiring.
B
Amelia's memes.
E
Charlie joined the secret group on this new platform. Their phone wouldn't stop buzzing with messages and of support and invitations to participate in several.
A
Is a fed, Charlie, She's a fed.
C
It's not true.
E
Amelia's mom was not so pleased.
C
And Grizz, I will fight. I will fight for She's a Fed.
A
You got to stop falling.
C
She's not a fed. Amelia is an English Honduras all over again. So for those who can't see it, Amelia is shown she has purple hair and like a choker on. She looks like a goth chick basically, but she's a right wing, anti immigration English patriot.
B
She's literally the AfD or like reform. Yeah, UK 100%. That's all it is. They're literally like, oh, who. Who likes Nigel Farage? We're going to stereotype them and put them in a. Like, like see what videos they're showing.
C
And so I don't want to show all. Because the next one's up ahead. The next one you do, she recruits you now in Jack's argument in the next clip, if you did it, she recruits you to go to a protest that she is not allowed to attend herself. And then Charlie attends the protest and he gets arrested because he gets in a fight with some people. And no, no, it's not true. He's like a totally funny.
A
Like, stop white knighting for Amelia.
C
No, I will white knight for Amelia forever. Because then different endings to the game. This. If you choose all the radicalized options, this is one of the endings you could get in the game. It seems they took it out, but it was still accessible if people downloaded the game. Let's do 481.
E
Charlie was furious that the teacher felt they needed support with their political views. Charlie was so insulted that they stormed out and went to see their friend Amelia. Together, the pair increased the amount of content they shared, attracting the attention of not just the teacher, but their parents and police too. By not accepting help in time, Charlie had given themselves an opportunity to break the law. With the things they were saying and the actions they chose.
B
Big Brother stuff, man.
C
And then Charlie gets arrested. The cops came in and they stopped. They shut down him and Amelia.
A
Yes. Just like Winston gets set up by Julia in 1984. All right, it's literally the same plot. Yeah, he's getting set up.
D
He should not have been talking so openly online. This is just ridiculous how they were talking online.
C
Yeah, and that's why we have to liberate the uk. And so this was made by the British government and was available till yesterday online. You could go play this. They have taken it down, but just like, you know, the last, the British government, they funded this Keir Starmer, they said East Riding east writing of Yorkshire. So, like, East Yorkshire is a region of the UK and they were using this. But they cannot kill an idea. So people have already generated heroic amounts of AI slopes of our new waifu. Emilia, let's roll the 479 B roll. So people have been making AI clips of Amelia protesting. That's her with the. With the Union Jack.
B
The Union Jack.
C
These are my favorite.
A
So. So Amelia is like the based right wing meme now.
C
Yeah, it's like Joan of Arc Amelia there, except not fighting the British. She's got The English flag on her shield. We got more. We got smoking.
B
Amelia here you are a woman watching this right now, and you resemble this female in some way, shape or form. Email freedom, charliekirk.com and Blake is going to date. You.
C
Men want just one thing, and it's disgusting.
A
It's Blake. Here we go. This connects all the stories now. This connects all the stories. There you go.
B
I will accept you if you're into.
C
Watch this last one here.
B
This is a great one here.
C
It turns into invaders. Look, we just. We have to defend. We have to defend the west here.
D
And.
B
Yeah. Oh, man. If you're listening on podcast, you got to check this clip out. Jewel. Yeah. Amelia.
C
Amelia. Amelia.
B
Amelia is basically.
C
So the British government tried to make a game about how you shouldn't be offensive on the Internet. Instead, they have made an unkillable idea.
B
You know what's crazy, though? That's a really good point. I hope this becomes like a. Like a. I hope this meme has life, because this is exactly who you want to see. Come up through the ranks in British culture and be amazing.
D
There might be an Amelia party.
B
Although that outfit, that's not like a German outfit, right? It wasn't like.
C
I have no idea.
B
I'm not endorsing.
C
I'm not controlling what the people do with their memes.
B
So. So all I'm saying is, you know, reform is probably gonna take back England. Who knows how successful they would be if they get control back. But I do think that this national populist rise uprising across Western civilization is a really, really positive thing. And the fact that you have whole government apparatus, machinery trying to fight it, and with this terrible Big Brother, it's like a wet blanket of a simulation of a game which they probably paid.
C
Way too much for government contracting process. Someone got paid, like, $100,000.
B
You know, this is like, you know, you've got Data Republican, you've got Mike Benz that have unearthed a ton of this stuff with the transatlantic. I mean, this is a really, like, hilarious version of it. And it's so on the nose that it's easy to mock. But there's some people that are very sophisticated about how they undermine a country's love of itself, a country's pride in its own heritage, and it's really disgusting. And we've gotten slammed with it in the west, and we're fighting, but we're, like, building immunities to it. That's why this is such a fun story, because we have. We're building immunities. Go ahead, Go ahead, Jeff.
A
I guess I was gonna say that, you know, and it's just, you know, my take on it, you know, I'm not. I'm not British. I don't think any of us are here are British. Tyler might have some British.
C
I don't know.
A
Oh, no, no. Andrew, you've got British heritage, right?
B
British.
D
I'm like 3/4 British heritage. But we came over on the Mayflower.
B
So I'm like, no, no, I'm actually more if you count. I'm sorry, I'm a British and Irish.
C
I am American.
A
So there's. There's a huge, like, cultural affinity for, obviously rule following and procedure in the uk. Like, like queuing and lining up is like really big. Just having visited there a few times. There's also a lot of obsession around, like health and safety risk assessments and compliance. So like with those, with those risk assessments. So the problem, I think, is that if you get, you know, if you start crossing the line between and blurring the line between what is in the good of the nation, what is in the good of the health and safety of the people with things that are bad, right? So you cross that line into tolerance. So the British system then will force you into tolerance more than any other possible system. Like, you know, the bureaucracy. CS Lewis, of course, in Screwtape Letters, famously writes that a demon is a bureaucrat, right? Hell is a bureaucracy with civil servants. And. And so it's. It's just something that's very culturally British. Rules, order, doing things proper, you know, that, that you see a lot there. We have to. Avoiding fuss, chaos. Like, they really, they really hate that stuff.
C
And so unfortunately, you got a license for that meme. You got a license for that name.
A
So like, this is a. This is a place where, like the, you know, fairness and hate speech and feelings gets kind of caught up with your traditional British, British cultural. Cultural. More of wanting to follow the rules, be fair, and having. And prioritizing health and safety.
B
Well, I, I can't wait for whatever this regime that is ruling the mines and pocketbooks of the British government fall. Obviously Keir Starmer's a wildly unpopular figure even in the uk.
C
I feel like all of their politicians are unpopular. That's its own funny thing.
B
Like, there is a British sort of. There is a kind of a tendency to just be. They're kind of doomers. Like the whole culture is doomers.
C
It's a. It is a civilization that seems to have given up on itself in a very disturbing way.
B
I'm telling you, they lost all their good dudes in World War I, they did.
C
Although this countries that didn't even have a world war, like the countries that weren't in the world war, like, Sweden was neither in neither world war. And they still hate themselves.
B
Sweden's kind of. They're finding a back. I like that. I'm hoping they were affected. Some of these groups are finding a backbone. But I think the Scandinavians, though, there is something. There's a bit of a pushover. I don't know, man.
C
These are the dudes who used to go around in boats and like, pillage and conquer Ireland and all that stuff.
A
And now it's like, how did they go from all their warriors, how did they go from the Vikings to that to what they are now? Or maybe. Maybe just the. The Swedes that are there now are the ones who stayed, you know, maybe. But the ones who left went to Minnesota. Vikings all left.
B
Oh, I don't know. These are conundrums that we're gonna have to ask AI to help. So help us off.
C
No, we're not going to ask AI. We're going to ask ourselves.
A
No, but this is in Minneapolis because you're surrounded by these Scandinavians who you're sitting around and like, my brother Kevin, go follow him. Kevin Posobic, he's down there on the ground. He's been in Minneapolis all week. He was standing next to the FBI truck that as it was being looted last night. And he's filming all this and, you know, it's like. And then he went down to the state capitol, though, for this high school walkout, you know, ice out thing they were holding yesterday with Keith Ellison. And he goes in and all the kids from the high school are Somali, and then the flag is Somali. So it's like, what is wrong with the Scandinavians? Why will they not wake up and understand that they are being invaded and they have incomplete.
B
A lot of Scandinavians in Seattle too, and they have.
A
Yeah. And it's like, well, you just got to be welcoming, eh? You just got to be welcoming, eh? And you just got to be good to your neighbor.
B
Racist. Yeah.
C
Irish now.
B
I don't know. I can't do accents. I can do like a. I can do a Scottish accent because I watched enough brave. The Irish don't really bad.
C
We need to make people aware. The Irish don't get enough flack for how like, unbelievably left wing they are now.
B
They're. They've letting themselves get.
C
They have very. They have a very bad.
B
There's Some is the vibe.
A
There's. There's some rumblings of. Of a switch in Ireland. Hopefully soon.
B
Conor McGregor is trying to rise up. Right. Yeah.
A
Huge rally that was in. I think it was Cork last. Last year about this. They are starting to, like, push off because the. The Irish defined themselves for so many years as being anti colonial because they were anti British. And then so they were like, oh, we'll just take the side of, like, everyone who else who's anti British, like the Palestinians and everyone in Africa and everyone in the Middle east, and we'll let them all in. And. And it's like, oh, sure. Didn't the Irish go to everywhere we should? Who are we to say, you can't come to our island then? You know, sure and sure and sure and Jesus. Jesus, land sakes. You know, and so it's like, did.
B
You just use the Lord's name in vain? We don't do that.
C
What I do love is Ireland. So I. You mentioned that Jack and Ireland got very attached to the idea that they are like that.
A
That is starting to shift, though.
C
But Ireland got very attached to this. So the thing is, Ireland like the country and they got very attached to the idea that because they were pro third World, like, pro Palestine, that they were this, like, moral superpower in the world. They had so much, like, credibility. And then some recent events have happened, and this is a headline in the Irish Times. Was Ireland's reputation as a tiny diplomatic superpower just a flash in the pan fantasy?
B
So they actually took, like, pride in this.
C
They apparently believed that, like, Ireland was this, like, country people listened to.
B
Yeah, because, you know, when I. When I spent time in Europe and I remember everybody multiple times, but there was. I actually lived over there for a bit. They. Everybody would always say, oh, the Irish are the nicest. The ranked. Ranked as the nicest country in Europe. And I kept going like, well, that's. You know, it's funny that I hear this. So many people would tell me this, that it was obviously kind of like a known thing. And I think if you internalize the fact that you are nice, then you will, like, culturally start, you know, opting to be nice as opposed to any other attribute, and you just get walked over. I think if you think of yourself as this diplomatic superpower, you just remember.
C
Nice is the lowest of the virtues.
B
Yep. Thousand.
A
So I can. I can explain this from an east coast perspective, that east coast people are not nice. We are, you know, like. Like definitely not nice. Like, that's Philly, New York, like Boston, you will not find nice on the list of, of our attributes. However, however, there's a difference between nice and kind. And I was actually talking to Libby Evans about this yesterday, and the difference between that is it's nice is sort of the way you carry yourself, the way you talk the way. And you see this with Trump all the time, by the way. Right? Trump is not nice, but he actually is kind of. Right. Kind means you follow things through with what you say you're going to do. You help people. You put people's best interest first. You try to do what you can to actually help others. That's being kind. Being nice is like being obsessed with, you know, words or did you say something in a nice way? Or, oh, did you have a mean tweet? You know? No, Trump doesn't care about mean tweets. He cares about getting the job done and actually helping people. That's being kind. And so I think people mistake being nice and being kind. And by the way, you want to go all the way back to it. The man himself, jc, Jesus Christ in the Bible is not always nice. Right? You, you get out. You, you pit of vipers, you den of vipers overturning the, you know, the, the, the money lenders and all the rest of it. There's so much there and the difference. But is he being kind of. Of course he is. He's being kind by rebuking the sinner.
B
I agree with all that.
A
Yeah.
B
I think nice and kind is a super important distinction to make because actually a lot of Americans, we think of, we think of ourselves as nice.
C
HR ladies are always nice.
B
They are rarely kind, and they're vicious.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's, what's the, what's the one in Harry Potter like?
B
Everybody beats her.
C
Umbridge. Yeah, Umbridge was.
A
Well, Umbridge. Yeah.
C
She's not always nice, but she's often superficially nice.
A
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Nice is superficial. You don't, you don't want nice. I mean, yes, nice is good to be in general. Like, you want to be polite, but there are times where nice should not be a priority. Being kind should be a priority. And I think, I just really think that a lot of people get this wrong. By the way, I'm getting, getting a little bit of breaking news in that the atf, speaking of the, the FBI firearm that was stolen last night, I'm just getting some word in that ATF has arrested the man who stole those firearms.
B
Good night. From the Consequences Accountability, I am worried.
A
Don't steal Federal weapons, because those are actually really easy to track. And federal weapons lockers, like, don't. Don't do that. Like, just so I can. I mean, in general, don't do that. But, like, don't be stupid, because that's really stupid.
C
I can tether this to the Ireland topic. So an interesting problem the British had in Ireland lately in their ownership of it, is there would be people who would do crimes against British, like, authorities in Ireland, or they might attack police, and they couldn't get convictions from Irish juries. Irish juries would just do jury nullification on things.
B
Yeah.
C
And so the British had to start. I can't remember the name of the law, but they basically had to start essentially saying, in these areas where this is a common problem, we basically have to suspend the right to a jury trial and allow magistrates to basically act, you know, have judicial rulings on this, because it's the only way to have actual criminal justice. And I wonder if we have to worry about that, like, what are you going to do in Minneapolis if you just can't empanel a 12 number? You can't. You don't even need. It's not Somali jurors I'm worried about.
A
It's eastern Virginia.
C
You know who Renee Good's on a jury.
B
Yeah. Yeah.
C
And they're the ones who are just.
B
Going to say, categorically, D.C. already. Yeah, you do, of course.
C
And so you might need to say, we're gonna need to move these jury trials to new locations or you're gonna have to find other ways to make people fear the law.
B
The more tribal we become, the less useful juries become.
C
And it's bad because the jury is a great thing.
B
Yeah.
C
But not every country has.
A
The jury system is. Is a. Is as, again, I believe, a British system that comes from British common law. And it. It, again, it. It derives itself, like so many other American traditions, derives itself from a specific group of people. And it's like, oh, well, we follow these proceeds. I was just talking about procedure, rules. There are other groups of people and other cultures around the world. And go watch a Nick Shirley video if you want to learn more about those that don't care about rules and don't care about honor and don't care about stealing and theft from another tribe.
B
This feels like a very good place to leave us. Leave the leave the show is. Stop importing people that hate us. Please. Politicians vote for a more term. And by the way, one of my favorite things that happened this week, Trump blocked 70 visas from 75 different countries. So that Third world travel ban, and it included places like Brazil, which is fascinating.
A
Yeah. There are some countries in there that weren't really Third world.
B
Yeah. But I'm okay with it. I mean, listen, the more the. I mean, I would do an immigration moratorium. So I'm just like, I don't care which country gets added to the list. Really. I would do a net zero, though. You know, 2 to 300,000 people leave the United States every year. And it's like, okay, well, if somebody leaves, they indicate that they are relocating somewhere else, then I will take somebody to replace them. But I don't need extra. So I would do that for 10 years. That would be my vote. But anyway, absolutely. And that happened. And Trump is saying that he's going to be defunding sanctuary City starting February 1st. So let's go clap. Can we get a clap from the. Yeah, from the studio. So that's the whole point. Stop importing cultures that don't assimilate that you can't have zero compatibility with. And that's. That's just how I feel about that. The Irish need to get there. The Brits need to get there soon. The Germans maybe are getting there.
C
Oh, it's looking bleak in Germany, man.
B
He's bad.
A
Poland, on the other hand, does not have this problem at all.
B
Based city, base city. You go. You go.
A
You go east of Berlin, and people are like. They're like, yeah. Why would we want people who are not like us in to come to the country? We're not interested in that at all. Thank you.
B
In Hungary, what else countries?
C
Denmark actually gotten pretty good.
B
Denmark's kind of based.
C
Denmark's kind of based on immigration. We shouldn't bully Denmark.
A
Orban's in a little bit of trouble in Hungary, by the way, that election he's won.
C
He's been in power 20 years. It's hard to be in power almost 20 years.
B
Yeah. You're gonna make enough enemies. You have to tell enough people no over the years. They got bones to pick with you. All right, well, this was an amazing episode, Jack. Well done. Thank you for zooming in, Tyler. Thank you, as always. You know, you're making a lot of time for us, even though you're running Turning Point Action. Got a lot of news on that. We should do like a.
D
We've got a lot coming out this next week, actually, with some big announcements happening in New Hampshire and Nevada.
B
So the Charlie Crick show on Monday. Monday. Let's talk about it.
D
We're announce it on Monday.
B
Oh, good. Let's do it. All right. In the meantime, Jack, you know how to do it. Keep committing, ladies and gentlemen.
A
Go out there and commit more thought crime.

Episode: THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 111 — Autistic Barbie? Hollywood Deepfakes? British DEI Video Games?
Date: January 17, 2026
Host: Charlie Kirk
Panelists: Jack Posobiec, Blake Neff, Andrew, Tyler
This episode of the Charlie Kirk Show’s “Thoughtcrime” panel dives into rapid technological and cultural transformations—from AI deepfakes in Hollywood to Mattel’s new “Autistic Barbie” and the British government’s attempt at social engineering via video games. With a mix of cultural commentary and humor, the panel explores how the boundaries of reality, identity politics, and digital manipulation are shifting, often in unsettling ways.
Segment Theme: The rise of AI-generated imagery and “deepfakes” is poised to upend Hollywood, news media, and even politics.
Example: The panel discusses videos of AI transforming an actor into Stranger Things characters, raising the specter of effortless race/gender swaps.
Industry Impact: Traditional animators and actors face obsolescence as anyone can create or swap entire performances.
Implications:
Extension: Speculation on AI-written worship songs and the selling of NFT-style AI characters/actors for financial gain.
Cultural Angle: Even the ability to "cancel" an AI persona for insufficient wokeness is explored, blurring boundaries between marketing, virtue signaling, and digital life.
Segment Theme: Autistic Barbie is introduced and critiqued for both virtue signaling (“so glad she wasn’t a white girl”) and for offering representation.
Panel Reaction:
Deeper Commentary:
Overview: The British government’s taxpayer-funded “Pathways” game was designed to teach youth not to become radicalized—ridiculed by the panel for its clumsy, Orwellian vibe.
AI Meme Blowback: Internet users ironically turn the game’s “right-wing waifu” character, Amelia, into a hero.
Cultural Analysis: Panel reflects on British (and European) tendencies for bureaucracy, compliance, and cultural self-flagellation.
This “Thoughtcrime” episode delivers a signature blend of irreverent cultural critique and serious warnings about the implications of unchecked technology, DEI activism, and the West’s waning self-confidence. While AI and identity politics continue to change entertainment and society, the panel finds dark humor—and some hope—in how these efforts can be subverted and turned into memes of resistance.
Final Message:
“Go out there and commit more thought crime.” — Jack (91:41)
