his brother Kimbal. And Kimbal said that once you start letting Full Self-Driving supervised drive for you in your Tesla, doing a long-distance trip with it feels like going back to the dark ages. And Elon agreed. Now, I think this is the biggest story about self-driving cars: that everybody who tries it is instantly addicted. Maybe not for every trip and every use, but for sure people who try it…
← Previous segment →Chinese study that found out that if you have cancer and you get chemotherapy under some conditions, and I don't know how widespread this is, the chemo can speed up the spread of cancer to the rest of your body. Just listen to that. Chemo, the main thing that is recommended for every kind of cancer it seems, might be speeding up the spread of the cancer. That's according to this Chinese study. Okay, I don't know if it's true, but that would be horrifying.
You know how I always say, wait until you find out about climate models? I'm going to add to that. Wait until you find out about chemotherapy. There is something coming down the road. I don't know of a specific thing, but I can tell you from my own research that there's going to be probably sometime in the next few years, if not sooner, there's going to be big stories about chemotherapy. And that's all I know for sure because I don't want to be sued and I don't want to convince people to stop taking it if it's going to be good for them. But there are going to be some things you find out about chemo that won't make you happy at all. That's my prediction.
Well, according to Yale Environment 360, there's a new study that says a drop in air pollution, mostly in Asia, I guess the Asian countries are getting some of their air pollution under control. They still have a big problem but some of it's reduced. But that reduction in air pollution allegedly drove a surge in warming. So I guess the pollution was helping to cool the earth maybe from reflecting the sun or something. And as we continue to improve the quality of air, it should cause an uptick in temperature.
Now, how many times have I told you that there was something that a scientist just discovered that was influencing the temperature that was not already in the climate models? Quite a few times, right? If you're one of my regulars, it comes up a lot. To which I say, wait till you find out about climate models. And sooner or later, and I don't think it'll be too far in the future, sooner or later there's going to be a big expose whistleblower who's going to tell you, "Of course the climate models are not accurate, and we always knew it, but we did it anyway."
All right. So I don't think any climate models had that pollution thing built in there.
All right. I got two different topics. One is I could tell you the power of hypnosis at a scale and how big that is. Or I could tell you that the pure bloods are basically another form of mental illness like TDS. Which one would you like to hear? So and I'll only do one. So it's either the power of hypnosis at a mass population scale or the pure bloods. All right. Good choice.
All right, let me take you on a little trip. All right, pay attention because you're going to have to connect all these dots, right? So some time ago, I think it was during the first Trump administration, you first heard the word hoax being used in a political realm. Do you remember that? Do you remember the first time somebody said, "Hey, those Democrats are running a hoax." Well, I'm not sure if Mike Cernovich came up with that word for that context first, but I believe he was the main promoter of that word to be brought into the political context.
Now, Mike Cernovich is also well-versed in persuasion and hypnosis and that's I would call that sort of a reframe. So he reframed some of the lies and fake news as not just lies and fake news, which doesn't really activate your brain because lies and fake news when it comes to politics just feels like the baseline. There's nothing to talk about there. But as soon as you call it a hoax, your brain says, "Wait a minute. Are you telling me they knew they were doing it? There were a lot of people involved and they ran it for a long time like a hoax." And yes. Right. So once that reframe kicked in and then Cernovich did a documentary film that I loved called Hoax, still available I think. I think he got some cycled but I think you can buy it now. All right so that's stage one. So somebody who knew a lot about persuasion knew that that word hoax would allow a little extra traction in explaining to people what was going on, which is the Democrats were running hoaxes.
Well, I also tried to boost that word as much as possible because, as you know, I have a background in hypnosis and persuasion. And I too recognized that it was a more powerful word for getting the point across. But then I realized also that if I put all of the hoaxes that the Democrats have done on a list and labeled that list the hoax list, then it would reframe again that it wasn't just something they do, but it was the operating system of the Democrats. Basically that pretty much everything they did was one hoax after another. And that was a more extreme version than just saying they do some hoaxing. It's like here's the list. I also knew that if the list got passed around, then it would be easy to meme because it was just bullet point lists and people would add to it and it would spread. So I put out the hoax list and it spread all over the place and people copied it which is fine and they added to it and they built websites with it etc.
So I knew that that would make a difference and then this is something that my regular audience knows but maybe if you're new you don't know this. It was probably 2019 or so. I may have the year wrong, but what was the first time you heard me tell you that the fine people hoax, one of the many hoaxes? Do you remember the first time I told you it was what I called the tentpole hoax? How many of you remember that? I called it the tentpole hoax. Meaning that if you could debunk that one hoax, just that one, the entire tent of the Democratic Party would collapse. Now that was not true of the other hoaxes. Now why was it that I believed that that one hoax could collapse the whole thing? It's because I have a background in hypnosis and a background in persuasion. So I recognize that one as the most important one. That if you could make that one disappear, that it would open people's eyes to the fact that the media is colluding, literally colluding with Democrats to sell you hoaxes and that that would open your eyes to all the other things being, hey, maybe these are hoaxes too. And then the whole tent would collapse.
So working with Steve Cortes and Joel Pollak especially, I considered us the three horsemen. Every time the Democrats brought that up again and it appeared on a clip or in a quote, one of the three of us would contact the other two and say, you know, by DMs usually, they're doing it again. And then I would post my response to it saying it was a hoax and link to things that proved it was a hoax. And Steve Cortes made a very viral video in which he debunked the hoax. Joel was writing for and still is writing for Breitbart so Breitbart's audience would see it and he'd also posted on X. So with the three of us just hammering on that thing for years, it started to spread and then other people would say, "Oh, where was that link you had where you debunked it?" And then everybody had the link. So that didn't break through. And we just kept hammering on it, the three of us.
And you would see people like Greg Gutfeld who would call it the fine people hoax and debunk it. And I think Tim Pool was probably there fast. So there were lots of other people who were very important to the spreading of the knowledge that it was a hoax. Finally, when Snopes, this was about one year ago, when Snopes debunked it, and Snopes is a left-leaning fact check site, that was the point when the bubble burst. And the bubble was believing that the news ever told you the truth.
Do you remember that Joe Rogan said that the fine people hoax had a big impact on him? Do you remember that Elon Musk said that when he learned the fine people thing was a hoax, it allowed it basically freed him to be able to support Trump? Do you think that made a difference that Joe Rogan and Musk found out that those were hoaxes and said it publicly and said it multiple times? Oh yeah. Yeah. Jack Posobiec, there are a number of other names who were very important in promoting the solution that it was a hoax.
So I would argue that Trump's successful second term run was probably because of those guys and a lot of other people. I believe that the so-called tech bros of Silicon Valley, yeah, Bill Ackman is another one who mentioned that when he learned that that was a hoax, it allowed him, it freed him to be able to support Trump. So without that, I don't believe that those very powerful and rich people would have felt free to support somebody who had ever said something about the fine people. But once they realized it was a hoax, I think it made them mad because they had been duped. And I think it made them more serious about jumping in and not being afraid to say, "Hey, look."
Now, if you were to look at the polling for the Democrat party, would you say that it would be fair to say that it collapsed? Do you think it's fair to say that the entire tent of the Democrat party collapsed? And the answer is yes. Yes, it did. The entire thing collapsed. And if you were to trace it back, I don't believe it would have necessarily collapsed without the fine people hoax being debunked. I think that was actually critical to Trump getting reelected. And to do that, you know, backing up again, it required somebody to have the knowledge of persuasion to know that that was the tentpole. If you didn't know it was the tentpole, you wouldn't go after it as beaver-like as I did. I mean, I was like a wild beaver on that tentpole. Tentpole and I just chewed on that freaking thing for what, five years? Whatever it was. And Steve Cortes and Joel Pollak, you know, Gutfeld, Posobiec, I think Tim Pool was there early as well and there were a bunch of others. If I didn't mention anybody, it's not intentional. But got it done.
So I would argue that the knowledge of how brains are organized and what works and what doesn't is what allowed Mike Cernovich to know that that word hoax was extra powerful. My knowledge of hypnosis and persuasion allowed me to say, you know, if we turned it into a list, it's going to spread. And it also allowed me to say that's the tentpole of all the ones. All the others could just be debunked and you say, "Oh, wow. That was messed up. I used to believe that, but now I don't." But that one was different from all the rest. And I recognize that. And the other people working on it hard probably recognized it as well.
So I told you I was going to tell you how powerful hypnosis is. It's not that you put somebody into a trance. That's just something that a hypnotist does with one subject. But what the hypnotist learns is the irrationality of the human brain and what things influence it more than other things. And then you take that and it works into all of your other communication and profession and your personal life and everything else. People tease me and they say, "Did you become a hypnotist because it would help you in dating?" To which I say, "Yes, yes, that's exactly why I did it." But not just dating. I knew it would help me professionally and in every way. Basically, once you understand how brains work and that it's not the way you thought and that you can make changes sometimes to very small things that can ripple through the entire system.
Now, could I have picked any other topic and use my hypnosis skill to get as big a result? And the answer is no. The key was not just working on it. The key was knowing it was the thing to work on. That's what I brought to the party. I knew it was the thing to work on. The work is what anybody could have done. I didn't use any special hypnosis to make a list of hoaxes. I just happened to know that that was where the lever was. So we just found out that Trump even according to his critics had the most productive first six months of any president. We have seen amazing amounts of change. Most of which I would say is really positive. How much of that would have happened if Trump had not been elected? None of it. Would he have been elected without those people who were freed from their fine people hoax prison? I don't think it would have happened without freeing their minds so that they would be fully engaged on his behalf. And I don't think any of that would have happened without it being a list and without that actual word that Mike Cernovich first popularized, hoax. These are all connected. You can see the through line all the way.
So if you're wondering how powerful is knowing hypnosis, I won't tell you that every hypnotist could have done that. You know, everybody takes their own learning away from the skill. But it is that powerful. Now, the question you might want to ask next is, have you done that more than once? Where you saw something that you can make a small tweak to and it would ripple through the entire system and change the world. And the answer is, of course, I have. You just don't know them all. Of course I have. Did I know it would work? I did. I knew it would work. I just knew that I had to hammer on it continuously and have lots of help, right? The lots of help part was the key.
All right. What else have I implanted in you, you ask? All right. We'll talk separately about the pure bloods. When I reframe them as having TDS, you're going to hate that, but eventually I will win you over and we will free them from their mental prison, which I believe they're in.
Small tweak to US policy toward funding what? Gaza bombing. You know, I've told you before that I'm not trying to influence anything in the Middle East. So I really am not. So I'm not trying to have any influence in the Middle East whatsoever because it's not my country. So I obse

rve and I predict, but I am not trying to change things in the Middle East. I might try to change things in America for the better, but no, that's not my region. So they're going to have to work that out themselves. All right, that's all I got for now. I'm going to talk to the locals people, my beloved subscribers on Locals.
