Weapons of Meme Destruction Dane & David

On April 19, 2024, Max Azzarello etched his name in American history books alongside other fateful events that have occurred on that same day in U.S. history. There's a lesson in his seemingly crazy action that without the proper historical context might be missed. April 19th also happens to be both the opening shots of the American Revolution when colonial militiamen opened fire on British troops at the battles of Lexington and Concord, and the date of the end of the Waco siege where federal jackboots torched innocent women and children to get at David Koresh. The juxtaposition of these two events, brought into stark relief by Azzarello's concerns about the encroaching tyranny of our illegitimate "leaders," teach us a very important lesson about the cost of freedom. On April 19, 1775 the American colonists had enough, on April 19, 1993, the American people apparently did not even though innocent women and children were burned alive by their government in front of all of us. Fast forward to 2024, where the growing tyranny of 1993 has been left unchecked, and a sick, defeated, apathetic society cries out for freedom, through the tortured protests of the Azzarellos of the world. The proper country that was America in 1775 desperately needs a revival.

Despite the overwhelming amount of bad news inundating us on a seemingly daily basis, causes for optimism are often just beneath the surface. In the last couple weeks researchers have discovered ways to make internet speeds millions of times faster without the need for any upgrades to our current infrastructure and they have also discovered a massive liquid helium reservoir under Minnesota, which is a key component of several technologies/applications that make all of our lives better. And, although this news is a bit more dated, within the last couple years, researchers have potentially discovered how to generate "smart" stem cells from fat cells which could help solve many human health problems. We discuss all three discoveries in this episode to remind you that although Black Pills seem to be more abundant, White Pills taste better.

Just before the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse, the Northeastern United States was rocked by a 4.8 magnitude earthquake. The eclipse path and earthquakes across the U.S. are reminiscent of natural events that happened in the early 19th century, just on the eve of the War of 1812. Are recent events suggestive of another coming war—maybe war with Russia over Ukraine? Also, why of all days did the egg heads at CERN decide to fire up the large hadron collider on the same day as the solar eclipse? Was this a perfectly coincidental date picked at random or is there more to it than simple, dispassionate science? We discuss, you decide.

On a recent Daily Show segment, John Stewart went full "Orange Man Bad" defending Letitia James' lawfare against Trump in New York where Trump was recently ordered to pay $454 million in damages for valuing his property higher than the tax assessor. Although Stewart and the rest of the TDS-afflicted left sees no problem with using the law in this way, it sets two exceedingly dangerous precedents. First, that anyone who owns a mortgage or a real estate investment in New York (for now, likely other blue utopias to follow) is subject to prosecution if they ever find themselves on the wrong side of a politically motivated DA. Second, if a party in power fails to get the courts to kick their opponent off the ballot outright, they can and will weaponize the law to throw as many roadblocks in his way as possible... ya know, for "democracy." We break down Stewart's segment, which is riddled with inconsistencies, hypocrisy, and economic illiteracy.

It would be sad if it wasn't so obvious and endless. Last week the state's chief propagandists tried to gin up outrage over Trump referencing a "bloodbath" in the auto industry if he is not elected. Of course, they tried their level best to destroy or ignore all context to get you to believe he was talking generally about kicking off a civil war if he is not elected, but not only were too many of us too intelligent to take that clear bait, for those of us with a memory longer than that of a goldfish, we remember it's usually the "mostly peaceful" other side that riots and burns down their own neighborhoods when elections don't go their way. We also discuss the recent uptick in cancer and/or rising mortality among the previously young/healthy demographic, which the same fear-porn-addicted media now wants you to ignore or chalk exclusively up to coincidence. It seems "coincidence" is quickly rising up the rankings as a leading cause of mortality lately.

Left or Right, it's never been about their professed "principles." On the Left, popular lefty meme page "The Other 98%" shows this by sharing a meme asserting that men can't have an opinion on abortion simply because they can't give birth. But wait... isn't it the Left that can't tell us what a woman is, says it's "transphobic" to assume someone's gender, and believes that one's gender can change every second? How is it possible that they even know whether a man, woman, or otherkin is capable of giving birth, let alone have the moral authority to determine when someone is allowed to voice an opinion purely on that basis? Unless, of course, it's all made up and their incessant sloganeering is nothing more than elaborate special pleading on their own behalf to assure that they're always morally correct. On the Right, the "free speech" "freedom" fighters that just learned (apparently not) the hard lesson of what their political enemies can and will do to them if they have the government power to make it happen (see: Covid and the "Twitter Files"), yet are all too eager to give more power over to the state to arbitrarily decide when a company is allowed to operate in the U.S., by pushing (and siding with unanimous Democrats in the U.S. House) a bill to force the divestment of or ban TikTok. There's a lot of ignorant screeching on the Right about China's alleged ownership/control of TikTok, but it is generally devoid of key facts and oblivious to the main fact that this will set the precedent to ban other platforms disliked by the establishment, namely X.  If there's one thing we can consistently count on the establishment Left and Right to do, it is to abandon any and all of their professed "principles" when it's hardest to stick to them and when it matters most.
