ll don't do that again. You've been warned. Well, the best and weirdest story of the day, I guess this happened yesterday or the day before. Somehow I missed this story until just recently. So Ye has commented, fighting with a post on Instagram. I'm not making this up. Everything I say now about this story is actually true. I'm actually, this is real. Ye posted on Instagram, "Watching Jonah Hill…
← Previous segment →feel about this. But what do you really want from people? What do you want from people? If somebody had offended me or some group I'm with and then later came at me with this, that Jonah Hill cured him of hating my group, and then he says as clearly as possible no one should take anger about a few people and generalize it to millions. That's all you wanted to hear, right? That was literally exactly what you wanted him to say. No, you should not generalize it to people because you met a few. I feel like he nailed it. As silly as this is, I think he actually nailed it. We'll see. We'll see. I suppose it depends what he does after this. But that could not be a more quirky, perfect, artistic way to approach it. I just love that.
All right, what do you think is the biggest source of racism in the country? Democrats, climate change, teachers unions, Republicans? It's Democrats, right? Because all the other categories are Democrats, right? The climate change pushers who want to get rid of your cheap energy that minorities would love to use. Teachers unions, mostly Democrats. It's basically Democrats. So Democrats in their typical narcissistic way have created an entire philosophy around projection. Pretty much it's just projection. So they're gigantic racists who only see the world through racial terms and they're trying to project that on everybody else and make everybody else the bad guy.
Now I'm not saying there aren't any conservative racists. Of course there are. But the fact that the Democrats have made it their main theme certainly makes race the big issue now.
I want to push back on something that a lot of my audience says to me in various ways. How many of you think that the election of Obama made race relations worse? Let me see your hands. Because if you trace the race relations line, I think Gallup tracks it, it looks like the election of Obama. Sure. All right. But do you blame Obama for that? Let's say the timing. The timing does seem to be around the Obama election. But do you blame Obama for that? I'm seeing mostly yes. Yes. Yes.
All right, here I'm going to do something you don't like at all. I think that was entirely the right-leaning media that wasn't Obama. I think if the right-leaning media had not made a racist kind of framing of him from the first moment you wouldn't have noticed. That's right. To me it looks like the media assigned people the opinion that Obama was going to be bad for white people and then white people adopted that view. And so I was watching it at the time and to me it looked like a massive psyop against Obama. That you know the whole, I mean I actually talked to somebody during Obama's presidency, in the middle of his presidency, there was a Republican who told me that it's a known fact that Obama is a Muslim. And I said what? And he said yeah, I mean everybody knows. And I said you mean like an actual practicing Muslim? As in if you asked him he would say yes I'm a Muslim? He said yes, everybody knows he's a practicing Muslim.
Now where do you get that? This is somebody who followed right-leaning news. It came to the conclusion that Obama was a Muslim. Somebody says he is a Muslim, there you go. Do you think that it's only the left that gets brainwashed by the news? It's not. It's not just the left.

Yeah, to me I think that Obama was a marker for, you know he certainly marks the time that race relations started to plummet. But I think that was almost entirely because of the way the news handled it. That's my opinion. Because you know I remember going through that period and thinking oh my God it's just every day something that's vaguely racially related or race scare or Obama's going to take…
