## About this episode

Donald Trump held a 100-minute rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he addressed media speculation regarding his health following a viral video of him navigating a ramp at West Point. The Trump campaign blamed lower-than-expected attendance on a coordinated sabotage effort by TikTok users and Chinese-linked management who flooded the registration system with fake requests. Trump also attributed the national surge in COVID-19 cases to increased testing capacity, jokingly suggesting that staff should slow down the process to improve reported metrics.

Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors described herself as a trained Marxist while stating the movement’s primary objective is the removal of Donald Trump from office. In the corporate sector, Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy faced criticism for a public display of shoe-shining as a gesture of repentance, while Johnson & Johnson announced the discontinuation of skin-whitening products in international markets. Meanwhile, the IRS admitted to bypassing Fourth Amendment warrant requirements by purchasing commercial mobile phone location data from Ventel to track American taxpayers. Additional reports confirm that the 1994 Crime Bill, championed by Joe Biden, was heavily influenced by the super-predator myth following the death of Robert Sandifer in Chicago.

John C. Dvorak revisits Niel Chang’s Life and Death in Shanghai to draw parallels between the Chinese Cultural Revolution and modern struggle sessions in American academia. The show celebrates the birth of Princess Sprinkles and acknowledges a top-heavy donation day from the Gitmo Nation, including a new Protector of the Realm title. Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak also analyze the technical physics of statue removal as published by Popular Mechanics.

### 5. Undercover Nurse, Elmhurst Hospital, Medical Deconstruction (12:49–14:12)

Two anonymous physicians provided deconstructions of the "undercover nurse" claims regarding Elmhurst Hospital in New York. While the doctors disagreed with some of the nurse's assertions, they confirmed issues with testing protocols and controversial "Do Not Resuscitate" (DNR) orders. One resident suggested a unique strain of the virus may have been present in New York during the peak of the outbreak.

### 7. Tom Petty Estate, Performance Rights, Virtue Signaling (16:41–18:28)

The family of the late Tom Petty criticized the Trump campaign for using the song "I Won't Back Down" at the Tulsa rally. Legal analysis suggests the estate has no recourse as long as the venue pays statutory performance rights fees. The hosts characterize the family's public complaint as virtue signaling rather than a valid legal dispute.

### 8. Eric Weinstein, Evergreen State College, Protest Waves (18:29–22:57)

Biologist Eric Weinstein discussed his experience being forced off the Evergreen State College campus during radical student protests. He identified three distinct groups involved in modern civil unrest: under-informed activists, professional agent provocateurs who target high-end retail, and opportunistic looters. Weinstein argues these movements are distinct from traditional civil rights efforts.

### 9. Bill Clinton, NAFTA, Democratic Party Business Model (22:57–26:47)

Eric Weinstein posits that the Democratic Party shifted its business model during the Clinton administration to favor large corporate interests over common people. This era saw the passage of NAFTA and the beginning of large-scale offshoring of American industry to China. The hosts argue that both major parties eventually abandoned small business interests in favor of influence peddling.

### 10. Welfare Policy, Single Parent Homes, Demographic Shifts (26:47–29:12)

A discussion on how historical welfare policies, such as "no man in the house" rules, incentivized the removal of fathers from homes in poor communities. Eric Weinstein explains the demographic consequences of removing men from a population, which undermines women's bargaining positions in dating and leads to unstable family structures. This cycle is presented as a primary driver of social inequity.

### 11. Bob Woodson, Institutional Racism, Black Elected Officials (29:12–32:11)

Civil rights leader Bob Woodson argues that the term "institutional racism" is used by black elected officials to deflect from their own policy failures in major cities. Despite having black mayors, police chiefs, and school boards for decades, many urban areas continue to struggle with poor education and high crime. Woodson suggests these leaders use abstract concepts to avoid accountability for the conditions of their constituents.

### 12. Donald Trump, Antifa, Thug Rhetoric (32:12–34:56)

Donald Trump utilized aggressive rhetoric, including the word "thugs," to describe rioters and looters in Minneapolis and other cities. The hosts compare this to Barack Obama's use of the same term during the 2015 Baltimore protests. The discussion explores the linguistic shift that has attempted to equate the word "thug" with racial slurs.

### 13. Critical Theory, STEM, Gender Spectrum Debate (34:57–38:32)

The "STEM is racist" movement is analyzed as a conflict between scientific reality and academic critical theory. Eric Weinstein argues that students in non-scientific fields like gender studies are incentivized to attack STEM because their ideological claims, such as sex being a spectrum, do not hold up to biological scrutiny. This creates a rift between activists and the scientific community.

### 14. Robert Sandifer, Super Predators, 1994 Crime Bill (38:32–45:06)

The 1994 murder of 11-year-old Robert "Yummy" Sandifer in Chicago served as the catalyst for the "super predator" myth. Academic John DiIulio used flawed data to predict a bloodbath of teenage violence, leading to the weaponization of the law enforcement system via the 1994 Crime Bill. The hosts attribute the long-term damage to black communities to this legislation, specifically citing Joe Biden's role in its passage.

### 15. UK Protests, Black Lives Matter, Cultural Dictatorship (45:07–47:32)

Protests in the United Kingdom following the death of George Floyd targeted national monuments like the Cenotaph. Critics argue that the Black Lives Matter movement in Britain is an imported American model used by middle-class activists to attack capitalism and the police. The segment highlights the difference in historical context between the US and the UK regarding slavery and infrastructure.

### 16. Jesse Jackson, Black Pete, Netherlands Tradition (47:32–49:11)

Jesse Jackson wrote to Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte demanding the end of the "Black Pete" Christmas tradition, labeling it a racist relic of colonialism. The character, traditionally portrayed by people in blackface, has become a focal point for international civil rights activists. The hosts view this as an export of the American racial grievance model to Europe.

### 17. Meghan Markle, Virtual Commencement, Political Activism (49:12–53:00)

Meghan Markle released a video message addressing the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, speaking to high school graduates in Los Angeles. Markle apologized to the students for the state of the world and encouraged them to use their skills for rebuilding society. The hosts criticize the speech as being out of touch with the reality of suppressed communities.

### 18. Venmo Reparations, Gimlet Media, White Guilt (53:04–58:05)

A new social media trend involves white individuals sending unsolicited small payments via Venmo to black acquaintances as a form of "reparations." A podcast from Gimlet Media investigated the phenomenon, finding that many recipients find the gesture insulting or confusing. The payments are often small amounts, such as five dollars, intended to alleviate white guilt.

### 19. ActBlue, Black Lives Matter, Fundraising Transparency (58:05–1:03:03)

A debate ensues regarding the financial relationship between the fundraising platform ActBlue and the Black Lives Matter movement. While some claim donations are funneled directly to the Democratic National Committee, others argue ActBlue serves merely as a clearinghouse for various left-leaning groups. The lack of a centralized 501(c)(3) for Black Lives Matter raises questions about tax filings and accountability.

### 20. Patrisse Cullors, Trained Marxists, Anti-Trump Agenda (1:03:02–1:09:04)

Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors described herself and other organizers as "trained Marxists" with a specific ideological frame. In interviews, Cullors stated that the primary goal of the movement is to remove Donald Trump from office. The hosts argue that the movement's leadership is more focused on dismantling capitalism and gaining power than addressing actual racism.

### 21. San Francisco Statues, Google Maps, Reporter Pronunciation (1:09:06–1:13:28)

Protesters in San Francisco toppled a statue of Junipero Serra, leading to a discussion on the correct pronunciation of the name. Local reporters were caught mispronouncing the name "Junipero" in a manner identical to the phonetic errors made by Google Maps. The hosts suggest this is evidence of Google's influence over modern newsrooms and the lack of local knowledge among journalists.

### 22. NPR, Tulsa Rally Coverage, Bias in Reporting (1:13:29–1:17:40)

NPR's coverage of the Trump rally in Tulsa is criticized for focusing on negative framing, such as the arrest of a woman in a t-shirt and the COVID-19 status of campaign staffers. The hosts argue that NPR has become increasingly slanted, providing "word salad" reports that prioritize narrative over factual detail. The segment contrasts NPR's intellectual branding with its actual reporting quality.

### 23. COVID-19 Data, NPR Lifestyle Segments, Leaf Blowers (1:17:40–1:22:30)

NPR reports on record COVID-19 cases in states without mask mandates, including Tulsa County, Oklahoma. The hosts also mock NPR's lifestyle segments, such as an in-depth investigation into the negative health effects of leaf blowers and the history of the American lawn. They characterize the network's content as negative and disconnected from the needs of daily commuters.

### 24. USA Today, Protest COVID-19 Links, Testing Scams (1:22:30–1:23:54)

A USA Today analysis found no direct link between recent mass protests and surges in COVID-19 cases. The report suggests that the virus's spread is not easily explained by single events or weather changes. The hosts use this to support their claim that the "surge" is primarily a result of increased testing rather than a new outbreak.

### 25. Noodle Gun, Cancel Culture, Corporate Resignations (1:23:55–1:27:38)

The "Noodle Gun" segment tracks recent instances of cancel culture and corporate purges. High-profile resignations occurred at Bon Appétit, Refinery29, and the Philadelphia Inquirer due to internal pressure regarding racial sensitivity. Additionally, actress Skai Jackson is highlighted for using her social media platform to target individuals for past comments, leading to investigations of students and professionals.

### 26. Corporate Apologies, Statue Removals, Proposition 209 (1:27:39–1:29:45)

Lloyd's of London issued an apology for its historical role in the slave trade, while various institutions like Ole Miss and the Minnesota Twins removed controversial statues and nicknames. In California, a move to repeal Proposition 209 aims to allow the use of racial quotas in public employment and education. The hosts view these developments as part of a broader systemic shift driven by social pressure.

### 27. Chick-fil-A, Dan Cathy, Shoe Shining Incident (1:29:46–1:32:52)

Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy participated in a public event where he knelt to shine the shoes of rapper Lecrae as a gesture of repentance for racism. During the exchange, Lecrae suggested that instead of a hug, the CEO should offer stock in Chick-fil-A. The hosts describe the incident as tone-deaf pandering that fails to address tangible economic concerns.

### 28. Donald Trump, Colin Kaepernick, NFL Return (1:32:52–1:34:33)

Donald Trump expressed support for Colin Kaepernick getting another chance in the NFL, provided his playing ability is still "up to snuff." This marks a shift from Trump's previous stance where he called for players who kneel during the national anthem to be fired. The hosts question the timing of this change in relation to the upcoming election.

### 29. Skin Whitening Creams, Ford Bronco, Popular Mechanics (1:34:35–1:37:10)

Johnson & Johnson announced it will stop selling skin whitening creams in Asia and the Middle East following social pressure. Meanwhile, Ford Motor Company delayed the debut of the new Bronco to avoid clashing with the anniversary of the O.J. Simpson chase. Popular Mechanics also published a guide on the physics of removing racist statues, which the hosts find notable for a technical magazine.

### 30. Open Source Coding, Sambo's Restaurant, Brand Erasure (1:37:13–1:40:11)

The open-source community, including OpenSSL and GitHub, is moving to remove terms like "master," "slave," "whitelist," and "blacklist" from their code. In Santa Barbara, the last remaining Sambo's restaurant changed its name after 63 years due to the name being perceived as a racial slur, despite it being a combination of the founders' names, Sam and Bo.
