So when the video of me and Ben Shapiro dropped, do you?
Speaker 1:know what he commented on Twitter. Tell me if this is a gay shit. He said she ate that for real. I have never in my life heard a straight man say that, ever, not a single time, not a single time. I'm sorry and I don't want to like. I don't want to like put someone's sexuality on them, like whenever he's ready to come out, he's ready to come out.
Speaker 4:But like boo-boo Closet is clear at this point we could see.
Speaker 3:But you know what I'm manifesting and setting the intention on.
Speaker 1:Let me debate Caitlyn Jenner, that's who I want to debate, Although I don't think she's going to debate.
Speaker 3:No, she's not Well, you know, I was on her show, like in what season one of her show.
Speaker 1:She had a show.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I was in IMK. I guess it wasn't a very good show. Oh, you didn't know that. Never heard of that one. No, I don't know. Lost relevancy there. Kate, like she's been listen, she Governor of what California? I was reading LazyTown. Oh, no, no, no. I was reading an article about her today I think she was saying something about the Trump administration was hypocritical because she uses the women's restroom in Mar-a-Lago. Am I saying that right? Mar-a-lago?
Speaker 5:Mar-a-Lago.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, Mar-a-Lago. See, that's how much.
Speaker 1:I think that all of these people genuinely think that they can be one of the good ones. Yes, and the tea is there really are no good ones. You can either just be a pawn or an enemy. Yeah, so it's like they're using you, it's not. They don't have to oppress. Like walk a flock. If they fundamentally do not like see value in you as a person, specifically because of a part of your identity, why would they make an exception for only you? You're not special, you're not that, just different.
Speaker 3:It's not you. Amber Rose is in the Waka.
Speaker 5:Flocka. You know what? Let me tell you.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, I'm going to say this for everybody on the internet.
Speaker 5:Anybody want to hear this Waka Flocka. You made your choice, you made your decision. You made your tea. You made your bed Lie in it.
Speaker 1:What did Waka Flocka do what?
Speaker 4:Wait, you do gotta explain it for the comments. What?
Speaker 5:happened, so Waka Flocka decided that he wanted to support Donald Trump.
Speaker 5:You know that he does not like our community, the black community, at all. Let's take out the trans. Let's take out the gay. He not. Let's take out the trans. Let's take out the gay. He doesn't support the black community. He does not in the way that you think he does. You may think he does, but he does not. To say out your mouth that you want to give police immunity to police and then not understand that not all police are bad, but there are some bad ones out there that if you get police immunity, guess what? They're policing the black communities and Latin communities harder and they're taking us out faster. But Amber Rose also said I loved Amber Rose, I went to all her events. You did the slut walk.
Speaker 3:I didn't go to that one. No, yeah, I did all her slut walks.
Speaker 5:I participated I was a volunteer on all her slut walks. Amber Rose was the sweetest spirit I have ever met. I don't know what happened in these past couple years to hurt her so bad that she had to do this.
Speaker 1:What did Amber Rose do? I used to love her.
Speaker 5:You didn't see her, big old tattoo going on stage and talking.
Speaker 4:She's like a white woman now or something. Okay.
Speaker 1:I'm not going to lie. I did not ever really know what race Amber Rose was. I met her mom. She hooked Jocelyn and then Amber Rose's mom I gagged.
Speaker 5:I was like we can fight literally met emma rose's mom. Emma rose's mom is so sweet too. I sat with her mom for a second and talked to her and emma rose for me. She was so sweet. I don't know what happened in this time for her to go this route. She's saying she's protecting her boys, and I get that you want to protect your children and I get that for any person, any parent out there, you're gonna protect your children.
Speaker 2:But this ain't the way to do it, yeah this was never the to do it at who's expense? No, no, no wait. Well, that's what I was saying, too, about. Like I was saying, I don't see myself in Donald Trump. It's like, even if I have options right, because we only have two options, we have more, but we know, we know what's up, don't? Forget Jill Stein. Jill Stein is a mess, she's messy don't even so if someone's like.
Speaker 2:I have like five siblings, right, and I told my siblings like this I'm like, if you're not going to vote, I'm like, let's imagine we're at a restaurant, right, if somebody is like trying to attack me, my gay black ass right, my siblings are going to fight that person because we're a team, right. So to my siblings I'm like or, donald Trump, pick the person that's going to that. Pick the person that's going to fight with me, not not fight me. Donald Trump is fighting me. Pick the person, even if you don't care about any of this, pick the person that you can relate to the most Are your siblings not black?
Speaker 2:as well. No, they're, we're, I'm, they're, they're from Wisconsin and they're. Honestly, I know they'll never tell me because they know better, but I know that. I know that I didn't go home because I can't be around that dry ass. Turkey, no way, Because I read down to the ground and I can't let. I can't. I'm not the one. You know what I'm saying. People are like it's just politics. No, it's not.
Speaker 1:It's not just politics, though.
Speaker 2:It's like daily life. You're not going to sit in my face and vote for Donald Trump. You're not going to do it. If you have voted for Donald Trump and I don't know about it, that's good, we're good. But if I know about it, thunder. But you know what I told all my friends who voted for Trump.
Speaker 5:I said this I'm not going to disown y'all. I will. I'm going to keep y'all because I love y'all Y' voted for. I respect that. I respect that anyone.
Speaker 2:You have voted for a certain aspect of something that you needed or something that you wanted, but as these years roll around, bitch, I'm gonna call you every day until you fuck you every time poppy happen see, I'm not gonna say fuck you, I'm just gonna not be around you if you're not, if I'm getting jumped by somebody and you're gonna be like, oh, I'm gonna take the person's side because you did, you said something crazy. No, no, you come fight with me. There's no, there's no choice for me. There's no choice. It for me. It was like donald trump doesn't. He only does things. Even if you are a white man who has his money, he doesn't care about you. He cares about getting your vote or your money. After he's done with you, he's gonna throw you away he's like clinically sociopathic he even said it out loud, like I just I just want your vote.
Speaker 3:Like he literally doesn't have any black people in his cabinet, not a single one. Oh no, no wait, didn't he just do one yesterday?
Speaker 4:Yeah, oh, do you know the theory?
Speaker 2:on that.
Speaker 4:How the fuck that works, so the last time he was here in office, all right. People are theorizing that because it says urban housing. That's why Trump always appoints a black person to that position. Oh for sure, because the last time he was in he did the exact same thing.
Speaker 3:But being car-.
Speaker 1:He did the exact same thing, but Ben Carson Might as well call it Tolkien's Black Job. I'm looking it up. It's Scott Turner, his secretary for Department of Housing and Urban.
Speaker 4:Oh him.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, yes.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so because Urban is in the name.
Speaker 3:He looks like a Uncle Tom Exactly. Look at that. Smile, honey, uncle Tom. Look at that smile, uncle Tom.
Speaker 5:Look at that smile. Look at that the light-skinned.
Speaker 2:Uncle Ruckus. Oh, stop, Not Ruckus. There was this guy on, I think on TikTok or something. He was like he was a MAGA, he was wearing the MAGA, he had this black guy. He was like, oh, he's like. I can't believe they did this to me.
Speaker 4:I know who you're talking about one of us. I just want you for your vote. And he is crying because he couldn't go home to his family for thanksgiving. He had an update. Oh yeah, no, I followed him just to see what was going on oh yeah, mama kicked that behind right on out.
Speaker 5:I even reposted some of his video very investigative on our state.
Speaker 1:He's our private detective right here, but you know what one gay guy who was like very pro-trump and he's like all my friends are cutting me off. I was like really go figure, I wonder why that's.
Speaker 4:Another thing, too is like okay, so you're gonna vote for these type of policies. You're gonna say this, that and the other and then turn around and get mad that we don't want to associate with you.
Speaker 1:That is confusing as hell it is personal thank you my uterus is personal, but that's why it's so disgusting, because I feel like politics have like the foundation of bodily autonomy is not being respected, so it is personal in a way that politics shouldn't be. Yeah, like politics should not be this personal, because the things that we're debating just should not even be on the table. We should not be talking about basic human rights. And the minute it gets to that level, it gets to a level of personal that now I gotta cut you off and now we can't be homies. Yeah, when, like realistically, it shouldn't be that way. We should be allowed to disagree, because the things that we're disagreeing on are not such basic threats to our survival it should be like an infrastructure bill of like, how much are we spending on the bridge?
Speaker 4:I don't know. I like this tax plan. Well, I like that.
Speaker 1:Like that is non-personal politics and we can debate that and, when we're done with that conversation, go back to being friends.
Speaker 3:I think what's happened is to that point, because I understand that, because I feel number one there's Trump supporters, yeah.
