so frank in their faith in their. statues are not just meant to honor our history they're also meant to symbolize our values to remind our society how a great person behaves and judging by the statues apparently there were ninety nine percent more great men and great women and about ninety nine percent more great white men the great black men and essentially zero great hispanic people and maybe one great native american. i mean if you really look at the numbers there were apparently more great horses than great women. and i like to say i disagree. i disagree. with you and thank you now at yes there is no chance to get applause in this room. but beyond just that confederate statues are worse than most they represent upright

in fighting for the right to own other human beings that's what it was i didn't understand that when i was little of course in fact here i am sitting on the robert e. lee monument and rigid that's that's a real photo. excuse the socks. right now i'm a guy they look happy in that but actually i've been stuck up there for a week so. it wasn't that good but i did i honestly didn't know the true history of the true history because we were taught a whitewashed version in school even to the point that my high school mascot wise the confederate rebels there was that that's the real do with that ridiculous rebel soldier because nothing says winners like a ninety eight year old racist who was on the losing side of a war. i think i was ten before i even realized the south had lost the war. when i. her dad i was worried. about lost if we lost it why do you see all this

confederates around town he said that i like wearing a t. shirt that says president to caucus. i. was a big dukakis fan when i was about ten but it is the most important part. to this day i don't think i can fully understand what it must feel like to be a black person in our society and passed by glorified monuments to people who fought to continue owning your ancestors as property it probably feels similar to seeing a grand statue to work to a nazi in germany if there were such a thing i realize there are a variety of differences between the two but the point it sends is the same the monument says these men who viewed europe as second class citizens or property or mongrels to be exterminated they were our heroes and we're proud of them ok maybe

not all statues represent those thoughts for example the world's largest ball of twine in kansas or fountain in chicago. that's that's a real thing that was apparently a rented by a man trying to remind dog owners to pick up there. but i think it probably had the reverse effect because people like oh this is where you leave the this is. fun. and good thing way we have the means to be to muddy this debate and create a boiling stew over spectacular idiocy the same people that are demanding that the cutter it comes down are the same people that are insisting that the rainbow flag goes up these two flags represent the exact same thing that certain people groups are not welcome here that should not at all with the gay pride flag signifies that it signifies all are welcome here. polar opposites that's like saying well

having separate water fountains for whites and blacks is exactly the same as having just a water fountain. chives represent that certain people are not allowed to drink the water no that's literally the opposite of what a water fountain is. well i guess at least he's admitting that the confederate flag means that some people are not welcome here that's rarely admitted by the right wing in fact many people don't know that the confederate flag was hardly seen from the end of the civil war until the one nine hundred fifty s. as historian david goldfield notes you started seeing it again associated with defiance of the federal government and opposition to the civil rights and racial equality of the african-american population in the south people only started waving that thing again when they wanted others to know they were against race should be quality that would explain why the confederate flags are so often seen in the

vicinity of truck nuts. you know they come in pairs they go. these civil war icons are meant to show that our society values white men who were willing to die to keep slavery as an institution i only recall one black monument when i was growing up in richmond virginia the arthur ashe monument arthur ashe was a hero of mine because i was in richmond and i played tennis just like he did but i now realize it speaks volumes that the black hero in our city is willing to celebrate that our city's willing to celebrate is one who excelled at sport and did not really threaten white folks at all this doesn't mean or the rest wasn't great but it sends a message if our white monuments imply excellence is fighting a war to keep black people as property and our black monuments imply excellence is politely winning tennis matches furthermore it's a little weird. the ash monument makes it look like arthur ashe was taking books

away from children was why do the chinese was good was a history of thank you. thank you this was your life. but this past weekend. i honestly witnessed a horrific event in charlottesville yet i'm still hopeful the anger and hatred and even murder we've seen from racists and white supremacists is the last gasp of a dying worldview trump is an overt in your face symbol of a backwards on evolved ignorant set of beliefs but those beliefs aren't those beliefs have quietly and secretly been the bedrock of our society for a long time and now i have hope they're being pulled up and discarded these aren't

easy or comfortable times but no change ever comes from comfort and in this cultural battle the good guys are winning i mean. i. really can't tell a take the news from behind this past week was earth overshoot day is a day in which we've used up all our allotted resources for the year and will now be going into debt for the next year now i would go out on

a limb here and say we're not going to pay those back next year but i won't do that because the limo was going to go out all we already used up with a. way which opted up and made a hipster belt buckle with a moose carved into it. in order to commemorate a time when there were still moves ok. but there is some good news about earth overshoot day it means we are able to calculate roughly. how many resources there are on the earth and how we're using them which is kind of the whole basis behind a resource based economy which is a way for us to to live on this planet without using up all the things but way if i want better and capitalism isn't the best economic system then why do i have all these issues. to share a. i have no puddle. but clearly we don't care that we're using up all our resources things are gone so bad we've we've even nearly used up all the

racism and bigotry for the year from trump just had another shipment brought into the white house. of course from paul a higher drivers with his skin color so that you know pretty offensive. pretty well but that it really really is you should hire all types all types also offensive this way it was trumps white supremacist or people turn to speech. apparently apparently his economic advisor gary cohen formally number two at goldman sachs was standing next to trump during the speech and cohen was somewhere between appalled and furious yes i'm sure he was thinking to himself you were supposed to be racist let us just jameco havel. here you know you don't just put it out there like you're on a table you don't change i have people good scream and run away. don't

don't it don't you hate that when you accidentally say the thing you mean you know . it's a good thing that doesn't happen more often unpledged delegates exist really to make sure that party leaders and elected officials don't have to be in a position where they're running against grassroots activists in the goal of the united states is twofold as i've stated it's one to make sure that we destabilize syria. money trumps. peace sometimes. i mean let's remember here the people we are fighting today we funded twenty years ago reckon to give up on destroying the health care system for the american people who will be my intention to do anything to benefit any any american i. was you know that that is that he's done a great job of really workin day and night. basically the truth is the real

problem here is the more inconvenient truth leaked e-mails show that the saudi crown prince once out of the war in yemen this is great news for the twenty million people currently starving in yemen because of this war it's also great news for the mainstream media who were hoping to find a reason to ignore the humanitarian catastrophe they were already ignoring there like i. can go back to ignoring that right blitzer don't worry about it yeah don't worry about covered up you haven't go back to picking let not your. knowledge no it's fine i think i don't all ignore other to ignore that ignore the evil things nasa or citibank are doing or i care there's tons of for you to ignore all right you could figure it out on your i don't have anything you. say to those the behind the scenes at c.n.n.

are. making of things the media is ignoring nasa just announced that last month was the hottest july am the hottest month ever on record in unrelated news g.q. has announced a new trend in business attire for next month it's just a necktie. i yeah and for below the waist it's also just a necktie i. really. really bad outfit on microaggression. we have to go to a quick break but i have live comedy shows coming up in seattle washington d.c. and you can now vote for your city to be added to the tour just go to redacted tor dot com it only takes thirty seconds to vote will be right back.

in case you're new to the game this is how it works my economy is built around quite. perforations from washington washington post media that. voters elected to run this country business. must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. now if the number of tanks that's a seventy billion dollars potential loss and you point out it's mostly private investors which would include let's say goldman sachs and others but if these folks like a goldman sachs suffer any losses at all remember they've anchored on the government for a bailout so they could go to the government and say over blew up we need to bail out aig and the government because it's staffed by goldman sachs employees mostly

c.n.n. or trump they would rubber stamp that bailout and then to pay for the bailout they'd have to go into people's pension accounts and they have to grab that money or wells fargo and go into your personal account and grab that money. may not only be tiste but also did to the ship between kids sure it was approved suggested no proof and a fairly strong one there were two thousand. involved in the study it's a very extensive study done by a well respected scientist. do chemicals that down the advertising really increase the risk of cancer and i chose a means of known to use damage in the launch of test is it a shared skepticism they do not believe that that risk is seen as true by independent scientists so did the meat industry paid you for this i received some

compensation for my time as well as the others why is that in the meat lobby definitely do like what we've been doing and if you want to learn more you'll get a definite on the outflow to the county you're not back to. is it big business against health. as you're starting to show. in safety. yeah and book a good little place called the day boy he said he learned to keep. the phone going to. get him you know who are going to commit they're going to write. so

. much for the ball club with such force they didn't know when to dodge myself and why he said i feel we should i should think you must like yourself at all thank you for such but he's. a big guns. about your sudden passing i've only just learnt you worry yourself and taken your last wrong turn. your act caught up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry. so i write these last words and hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each day. but then my feelings started to change you talked about more like it was

a can still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question are. secretly promised to never like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters mind gets consumed with this one to. speak to us that we know what it takes. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. was welcome but i agree carrying through the night. of the why greg censorship of anti establishment journalism and media and the us corporate power structure. this new level of censorship goes beyond even your run of the mill suggesting corporate consolidation of information thanks to entities like google and facebook we've now entered overt suppression territory here to

explain what's going on is our senior media watchdog with worms john of o'donnell i know. i couldn't believe you told them about my wounds. you know how that is it had to be done to the other team credibility had to be yes it is the precedent and censorship go. what are you what are you talking about i mean all that's happening is that google and facebook are working overtime to stomp out extremist hate speech and fake news they're taking it very seriously some might say they're even being nazis about it. the good. john they're just using that as a pretense to target all voices that don't toe the establishment line in last week's episode i mentioned al because of google's new surge protocol sites like

democracy now have lost nearly forty percent of their traffic yes sure you know but google has also hit the right wing like the libertarian site antiwar dot com and they have good reason. so was that not only the reasons not the point ok you don't even know now do you have no idea oh i have no idea ok i thought maybe you would know i mean do we still live in america here i mean the question to say what is this maoist china ok. take a breath. away i think that was the worm speaking it's important it's important we get this information out there so tell us what else is going on oh well ok as you know google owns you tube and you tube has recently begun the monetizing videos meaning taking away ad revenue from content creators deemed too controversial for the platform sadly too controversial actually means anybody with

a perspective that isn't directly aligned with satan's for corporate. lies death and destruction. that was. i guess why they did super adapted to why that's true. straight they also did it to us and for many of the independent you tube channels ad revenue is the source of income that allows a creator to stay afloat this is defacto censorship yes it is and on the left besides us they did monetize shows like jimmy do or tim black and abby martin and on the right they had the ball to de monetise diamond and silk. was who were diamond and still early down and down and down and then we owe our two big guns to gun them more like the devil rat. rat are. the corporate democrats i came on board with them their girl our audience not

so much our god of course they are they're nuts. but you know regardless i still don't think that diamond silk should be. and undermined in america for speaking their minds to their. own right we're right we're almost out of time here is there any other grotesque repressions that we should be aware of real quick. facebook is now consulting with the washington post a fact jack to get fake news which is unfortunate because the washington post editorial disseminating fake news on behalf of the intelligence community which amazon's jeff bezos has a six hundred million dollars contract with which seems like a conflict of interest because he owns the washington post also plus facebook will be giving preferential loadings needs to get media and other united states.

we know. that. the next rudy leader we're going to support. or maybe it's but i'm not sure redacted correspondent on the caravan he filed this report. i'm going to take you for a war which is to never and once we're talking about this war. now there's no reason to be alarmed this was clearly an isolated incident. i am now receiving word that iran is building a three mile high roll of toilet paper. and the north koreans have a new surface to air tampon they're testing the arms race has begun the pentagon is now posing the question to drone or not to drone alleged terrorist cells in the

philippines which is a strange question to ask because we owe ready did two thousand and six and twenty twelve. did we can did we just. wake up drunk from years of war pamphlets wondering what happened on the island of jolo in two thousand and six and zero where did my moral forty an international war go oh my god why is it where. we didn't help the buildings fight against spanish colonial rule and the filipinos declare their independence and eighteen i need from spanish first then we just stayed there and the filipinos had to fight no their war of independence against this. independence after all that celebrating that has to be obama all right everyone stopped the flow arrayed put down the t. shirt cannon and break up a real can since the united states left in one thousand forty six filipinos elected

leaders who was found in the american an anti clone you know whether it quite the current leader in terror today. president of the somebody and they. don't believe. it or are you but. we're going there so we called obama son of all or just normal banter between nations to tangiers our new partner in crime against humanity as rex tillerson promised weapons and drones but he's a dictator which brutal violence against its own people justifying it as a drug war. he learned the fake drug war trick from us they grow up so quick don't they given rights watch claims because drug lords really want more on the poor and the police led extra judicial execution campaign that has resulted billing deaths of more than seven thousand people.

this is immediate. just. relax hitler killed six million jews so our friend of terror days only half a holocaust. how can we be sure that you turned to use the weapons we gave him against his many enemies like tribal in schools accusing them of teaching students to become communist rebels ok buddy if you're going to be our partner we don't announce the war crimes before we commit if you're going to bomb schools or hospitals. autocratic small minded want to be dictators tend to get along so trying to raise your taper is to row crack down. use.

good regular guy. jesus believe guys get a who already muslim separatist groups who have been brutally oppressed by and fighting the filipino government for over fifty years and just last year the victims. are really isis. i mean they do follow isis on twitter but if you can be judge for green follow on twitter i have to be all left taco truck right now for the i should also get rid of that taco flag. this is they only care about any project it's not. so. i want to close out the show today on a serious note about charlottesville being there and watching it happen was something i'll never forget my thoughts are with all the the injured both mentally

and physically and the family of heather hire i talked about my experience yesterday on redacted v.i.p. and at you tube slash redacted tonight i feel like if there's if there's one thing it brought into focus it so we've all one brief moment to make this world a better place and every once in a while you realize just how fleeting and tenuous it is so it's now or never. till next week goodnight gay pride i thank you ira. isis militants have just shown to patrol base on the left and right this compound. enemy troop movements have been spotted on the coasts of the river.

here in the only two groups of militants have joined forces. those groups looters have to clear their determination so for an independent islamic state in the philippines to feel. even after two months of front of the army keeps finding hidden weapons and explosives. not being up operations in areas where civilians used to live on a daily occurrence. not well meaning walk with the bundle but no. noise to get a minute. visit as you didn't. see him. walking dead. the indian will make money at it for the fishes says he moved us all down. with gold make this manufacture consent to stick to the public wells. when the

ruling classes protect themselves. when the final larry go round. the one percent. going all middle of the room signals. the real news is. thank you again this is how. the economy is built around. corporations run washington washington media.

and voters elected to businessman to run this country business equals power you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. well you could you wouldn't order you notice another flood plain and one million people died. he killed people even. now no one's going to lay a few pennies around it and that's. a

headline stories this hour police in finland save a no i believe on friday stopping at times which left two did was an act of terror the main suspect is an eighteen year old moroccan asylum seeker. in all seven people are knives during an assault in siberia russian police haven't confirmed it was terrorism although it's not make state claims it was responsible also. we didn't get any benefit from the u.s. they target civilian houses but they don't target i assume it suits stalled progress some increasing casualties donald trump failed.
