Introduction to Amateur Nation
00:00:00
Speaker
Warning.
00:00:01
Speaker
The podcast you are about to hear is often based on true events and people.
00:00:06
Speaker
It chronicles the dialogue and actions of random, anonymous, obnoxious, self-entitled, unintelligent, self-centered idiots.
00:00:12
Speaker
Attention whores, ignoramuses, dolts, clods, nimrods, douches, weirdos, drama queens, overly sensitive crybabies, and people who think they are better, more important, and special than the rest of us.
00:00:23
Speaker
In one word, amateurs.
00:00:25
Speaker
Amateurs.
00:00:27
Speaker
It's Amateur Nation with Lou Santini.
00:00:30
Speaker
We call attention to and call out the amateurs.
00:00:34
Speaker
The people who are doing life wrong.
00:00:36
Speaker
The speed bumps of life.
00:00:38
Speaker
People that are in your way every day.
00:00:40
Speaker
The unintelligent, obnoxious, attention whoring, self-entitled drama queen victim types who chip away at the moments of your life due to no self-awareness, common sense, manners or social skills and are disturbing the flow of the pros.
00:00:56
Speaker
Hi, Mom.
00:00:57
Speaker
Oh, hey, Lou.
00:00:57
Speaker
Amateur Nation.
00:00:58
Speaker
It's not just a podcast.
00:01:00
Speaker
It's a movement.
00:01:00
Speaker
What have we got here?
00:01:01
Speaker
Fucking comedian.
00:01:03
Speaker
Yeah, you do.
00:01:03
Speaker
And this is episode 202.
00:01:05
Speaker
This podcast is taking hate back.
00:01:09
Speaker
Fans first, shout
Michelle Obama's Comments on Racism and Braids
00:01:11
Speaker
out to May 453, listening to the show on SoundCloud, and has been spreading the word about the hottest conservative news slash social commentary podcast on the planet.
00:01:21
Speaker
Now, warning, this episode is going to cause some arguments.
00:01:26
Speaker
Let's have some action.
00:01:27
Speaker
Let's have some asses wiggling.
00:01:29
Speaker
I want some perfection.
00:01:32
Speaker
Here's what's happening in Amateur Nation.
00:01:34
Speaker
Topic number one.
00:01:37
Speaker
From iPatriot.com, here's your headline.
00:01:41
Speaker
Angry Michelle Obama says USA so racist that she couldn't wear braids as first lady.
00:01:51
Speaker
Here's the article.
00:01:53
Speaker
The perpetually, isn't it sad that this is a story that a former first lady is whining about this?
00:01:58
Speaker
But here we go.
00:02:00
Speaker
The perpetually angry Michelle Obama now says that the United States is so racist that she was unable to wear braids while she was first lady during the Obama regime.
00:02:13
Speaker
I know, the horror.
00:02:14
Speaker
In her discussion with the much derided Ellen DeGeneres, Obama insisted that America is downright mean.
00:02:23
Speaker
In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres about her new book, The Light We Carry, Michelle Obama said, As black women, we deal with it, the whole thing about, do you show up with your natural hair?
00:02:34
Speaker
As first lady, I did not wear braids.
00:02:37
Speaker
Being the first, yeah, we had to ease up on the people.
00:02:41
Speaker
I was like, it would be easier.
00:02:43
Speaker
Nope, nope, they're not ready.
00:02:47
Speaker
In CNN's coverage, Don Lemon said the former first lady says that she kept her hair straight so her husband's administration could focus on other issues and not her hair.
00:02:59
Speaker
Yeah, that's what America wants to hear right now.
00:03:02
Speaker
We're getting our asses handed to us by China, record inflation.
00:03:05
Speaker
We've had lockdowns, mandatory vaccines, and now all the illness and death from the vaccines.
00:03:09
Speaker
We've been told we're non-essential, but now we're told that we're ugly too and racist.
00:03:14
Speaker
America
Trans Privilege and Related Stories
00:03:15
Speaker
is so mean, they let Barack Okami run for two terms of office.
00:03:19
Speaker
That's how mean we are.
00:03:22
Speaker
A. Anything to distract us from her wang.
00:03:25
Speaker
No!
00:03:26
Speaker
Hey, if I'm wrong, I'll admit it and apologize.
00:03:28
Speaker
It's not like her career of accomplishing nothing will be ruined.
00:03:32
Speaker
B. Barack Okami hasn't been president for how long?
00:03:35
Speaker
Why haven't you been wearing braids every day since then, O. Oppressed One?
00:03:39
Speaker
C. When your husband was in office, you were, by definition at the time, the most powerful woman on the planet.
00:03:45
Speaker
You could have led by example with your braided hair, but instead retroactively played the victim and showed no backbone.
00:03:54
Speaker
Because America is mean.
00:03:57
Speaker
And D. About that, America is mean.
00:04:01
Speaker
This is what you think of the American people?
00:04:03
Speaker
that they're so weak-minded, so stupid, so short-sighted, and in your words, so mean and racist, that in your specialness, think that your hair is what Americans give two shits about?
00:04:17
Speaker
That's insulting.
00:04:19
Speaker
Here is the audio of her on Ellen spouting off.
00:04:23
Speaker
And listen to the lemmings who laugh, not even knowing what they're laughing about.
00:04:27
Speaker
They're just, oh my God, it's her.
00:04:30
Speaker
Maybe.
00:04:31
Speaker
Go ahead and play the Mike Obama clip.
00:04:33
Speaker
Go ahead.
00:04:34
Speaker
But, you know, as First Lady, I did not wear bricks.
00:04:38
Speaker
We got to ease up on the people.
00:04:38
Speaker
Because I thought about it.
00:04:46
Speaker
I was like, it would be easier...
00:04:49
Speaker
As author of the article, Warner Todd Houston said, keep your eye on this woman who has said that she has never been proud to be an American.
00:04:59
Speaker
The left will be placing heavy pressure on her to run for president in 2024, and she may bow to that pressure.
00:05:05
Speaker
She is the one Democrat who could win without raising a sweat.
00:05:09
Speaker
Folks, if you vote for this idiot, you're beyond help.
00:05:13
Speaker
But she's black and she's a woman, kinda.
00:05:16
Speaker
Once again, you've proven your racism by only seeing color and not judging someone's character and qualifications.
00:05:25
Speaker
Topic number two.
00:05:28
Speaker
Speaking of which, it's time for This Week in Trans Privilege.
00:05:33
Speaker
In San Francisco, there is a new program where trans people get a guaranteed $1,800 a month, quote, for their struggles.
00:05:43
Speaker
It's called the GIFT program, Guaranteed Income for Trans People.
00:05:47
Speaker
Suck on that, hardworking Americans and veterans.
00:05:52
Speaker
I hate this word, but it's not like she has a real job.
00:05:55
Speaker
Anyway, this influencer, Oli London, age 32, is transitioning back from a Korean woman to a British man.
00:06:07
Speaker
Yeah, good luck friends of this guy trying to find a card to commemorate that.
00:06:11
Speaker
And he slammed schools for normalizing changing genders and teaching kids to idolize weak men like Harry Styles.
00:06:21
Speaker
Okay, so here we have a person who realizes, hmm, maybe transitioning my race and gender to look like a K-pop star at age 32 maybe wasn't such a good idea.
00:06:33
Speaker
But, like all amateurs...
00:06:37
Speaker
It's not their fault.
00:06:38
Speaker
It's the American school system.
00:06:41
Speaker
And I used to complain because I had too much geometry homework.
00:06:46
Speaker
He told E!
00:06:47
Speaker
News, quote, I have taken some time to truly reflect on being a woman and have realized it is simply not for me.
00:06:55
Speaker
However beautiful I felt with long hair and more feminine features, I now want to go back to being my original self, a biological man.
00:07:03
Speaker
And those mood swings and whims will jump up and bite you in the ass, amateur nation.
00:07:08
Speaker
He's had 32 surgeries, including six nose jobs, an eye surgery, a facelift, a brow lift, something called a temple lift, and a teeth procedure, all in the effort to look like a K-pop star by the name of Park Jimin.
00:07:21
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know why, but this next part, this is my favorite part.
00:07:25
Speaker
He apologized to Park Jimin, the K-pop star, and the Asian community for trying to become another person.
00:07:35
Speaker
I just pictured Asian people going, yeah, okay, we don't care.
00:07:39
Speaker
But like all amateurs, he learned nothing and said he, quote, still identifies as Korean.
00:07:48
Speaker
So let's retrace our steps.
00:07:50
Speaker
We had a British man who underwent 32 surgeries to become a Korean woman, changing his race and gender.
00:08:01
Speaker
And now he's going back to becoming a British man.
00:08:06
Speaker
I'm sorry, a man.
00:08:07
Speaker
See, even I'm confused.
00:08:08
Speaker
He wants to go back to becoming a man, but he's staying with the Korean thing.
00:08:12
Speaker
Yeah, you think so?
00:08:13
Speaker
Because your face is so fucked now, there's no way you're going back to a regular white British guy.
00:08:19
Speaker
In other trans-privileged news, here's your headline from VictoryFund.com.
00:08:25
Speaker
And I hope I'm saying this person's name right.
00:08:27
Speaker
Lee Finke makes history as the first trans person ever elected to the Minnesota state legislature.
00:08:35
Speaker
Oh yeah, fellow Americans, he's going to fight for you, average Minnesotan citizen.
00:08:40
Speaker
He has his hand on the pulse of what you care about.
00:08:45
Speaker
And finally, Brian Wynn, age 19, was the first transgendered person to win, here's a stupid phrase, a local Miss America pageant, beating out actually attractive biological teenage girls.
00:09:00
Speaker
Google this sad boy and you'll see that Brian is a morbidly obese boy.
00:09:04
Speaker
Even sadder, the teen girls on stage with him cheered like the programmed amateurs that they are.
00:09:11
Speaker
Losing a beauty contest to an overweight man shouldn't have any ill effects on their body images.
00:09:17
Speaker
Ah, progress.
00:09:19
Speaker
Amateur Nation will run with this, of course.
00:09:21
Speaker
If men and women are so different, then why did a man win a beauty contest?
00:09:25
Speaker
Oh, I don't know, because everyone there at that contest were idiots?
00:09:28
Speaker
And if he's fat, why did he beat the thin girls in a beauty contest?
00:09:32
Speaker
I guess the definition of beauty and woman are changed now.
00:09:35
Speaker
Yes, because a room full of fellow mentally ill, delusional, woke amateurs who were probably bribed said so.
00:09:42
Speaker
It's pathetic.
Social Media and the Concept of Hate
00:09:43
Speaker

00:10:18
Speaker
There's been an odd shift in human behavior over the last 15 plus years.
00:10:22
Speaker
A sense of entitlement.
00:10:24
Speaker
A constant need for attention.
00:10:25
Speaker
Ironically coupled with the need to be left alone.
00:10:28
Speaker
A desire to be treated the same as everyone else.
00:10:31
Speaker
Stupidly combined with the mindset of, I'm special, so treat me accordingly.

Topic number three.
00:12:09
Speaker
As I mentioned last week during the a la carte segment, this.
00:12:14
Speaker
Good thing we talked out all of our problems and differences on the internet.
00:12:17
Speaker
It always helps to talk things out, doesn't it?
00:12:19
Speaker
Answer, no.
00:12:21
Speaker
Sometimes it's better to shut the fuck up and ignore each other.
00:12:23
Speaker
That's the lesson.
00:12:25
Speaker
I mean, it's fine.
00:12:26
Speaker
I hate you.
00:12:27
Speaker
But can we not talk about it?
00:12:29
Speaker
That's all I ask.
00:12:30
Speaker
Can I bask in my hate?
00:12:32
Speaker
I don't want to cause any trouble.
00:12:34
Speaker
Just let me hate you.
00:12:35
Speaker
If I secretly want to hate you or someone or something, let me hate it or that person.
00:12:40
Speaker
And you don't have to know about it.
00:12:42
Speaker
We don't have to talk everything through.
00:12:45
Speaker
We were getting along fine to a certain extent, certainly better than we all are now, thanks to the internet and talking about our feelings.
00:12:52
Speaker
I hate you.
00:12:53
Speaker
I'll be respectful to you and nice to you.
00:12:56
Speaker
I'll be polite.
00:12:57
Speaker
I have manners.
00:12:58
Speaker
I could fake it.
00:12:59
Speaker
But if I secretly want to hate you, let me hate you and you not know about it.
00:13:02
Speaker
Why do we have to talk everything through?
00:13:06
Speaker
Right?
00:13:07
Speaker
We were getting along fine before that.
00:13:08
Speaker
We were talking shit out, and now where did that get us?
00:13:11
Speaker
We get to know each other, air out our crap on the internet, maybe even meet face-to-face, and then we all wind up thinking the same thing.
00:13:19
Speaker
Yep, they were a total dick, just like I thought.
00:13:22
Speaker
Which made me expand on this subject of the title of this episode, I'm Taking Hate Back.
00:13:28
Speaker
Hear me out.
00:13:30
Speaker
Bear with me.
00:13:31
Speaker
Listen up.
00:13:32
Speaker
How many ways can I say this?
00:13:34
Speaker
The word hate...
00:13:37
Speaker
has been misused for a long time.
00:13:40
Speaker
I'll give you a real simple example.
00:13:42
Speaker
Hey, would you like some peas?
00:13:43
Speaker
Ugh, yuck, I hate peas.
00:13:44
Speaker
That's hate speech!
00:13:46
Speaker
No exaggeration.
00:13:48
Speaker
Hate speech is now defined as anything the left, the woke, the cancel culture people, the amateurs, anything they hear that they simply don't like or even like to hear.
00:14:01
Speaker
It's not even that they don't agree with your stance or point of view.
00:14:05
Speaker
They literally react to the sound of words now.
00:14:08
Speaker
The way you'd swat at a fly that's buzzing around your head.
00:14:11
Speaker
It's just a noise that they hear that somehow doesn't sound like something I'd like or agree with or agree to or even allow myself to hear.
00:14:20
Speaker
Again, no exaggeration.
00:14:23
Speaker
Example, say the word Trump to an amateur.
00:14:27
Speaker
That's right.
00:14:28
Speaker
Hit that buzzer.
00:14:29
Speaker
Oh, I hate him.
00:14:30
Speaker
That hate is okay.
00:14:33
Speaker
And then pros say, well, why do you hate him?
00:14:35
Speaker
I just do.
00:14:36
Speaker
He ruined America.
00:14:37
Speaker
Can I have some example, please?
00:14:38
Speaker
I don't have any right now, but... Okay, let's play this again.
00:14:42
Speaker
Say the words white privilege and or toxic masculinity and...
00:14:48
Speaker
And instead of asking for examples, you, as a pro, could give examples of the myriads of accomplishments of various races and sexes over the decades, but it's never enough.
00:14:59
Speaker
Say Elon Musk to an amateur.
00:15:03
Speaker
He ruined Twitter!
00:15:05
Speaker
Oh, I see.
00:15:06
Speaker
But I thought it was a private company before Musk where they have a right to censor what they want, but just not now.
00:15:12
Speaker
Hypocrisy at its finest.
00:15:14
Speaker
Here we have a social media platform designed to allow free speech, the free exchange of ideas and facts.
00:15:22
Speaker
And it just might contain something you can choose to delete, ignore, or respond to.
00:15:27
Speaker
You know, like radio during the Howard Stern uproars in the 80s and 90s.
00:15:31
Speaker
Movies and TV that you could turn off or ignore.
00:15:34
Speaker
But amateurs, as always, strong feelings that are not backed by any facts or logic or compassion or, in this case, reason, supersede any right to free speech or proof.
00:15:50
Speaker
Amateurs truly do hate at least one thing.
00:15:56
Speaker
for sure.
00:15:57
Speaker
And that is being wrong.
00:16:00
Speaker
Okay.
00:16:00
Speaker
Two things.
00:16:01
Speaker
Also being called out when they know they're wrong.
00:16:05
Speaker
They've been wrong about so many things the last few years.
00:16:09
Speaker
It's making them crazy.
00:16:11
Speaker
They're praying for something, anything to go their way.
00:16:14
Speaker
They've been wrong about gun violence statistics, uh,
00:16:38
Speaker
Wrong about President Coloring Book's competency.
00:16:40
Speaker
Wrong about Kamala Sling Blade Harris' competency.
00:16:43
Speaker
Wrong about COVID shutdowns, masks, vaccine effectiveness and safety.
00:16:47
Speaker
Wrong about Trump's collusion with Russia.
00:16:50
Speaker
Wrong about January 6th.
00:16:51
Speaker
Wrong about border security.
00:16:53
Speaker
Wrong about what is a woman.
00:16:54
Speaker
Wrong about censorship.
00:16:55
Speaker
Wrong about everything.
00:16:58
Speaker
And even if, if they were able to get a win,
00:17:03
Speaker
They'd bank that and ride it all the way home.
00:17:05
Speaker
It's like going winless in a football season, except for that one game where your crappy team beat the other crappiest team by one point.
00:17:14
Speaker
And you say, see, we're really good.
00:17:16
Speaker
We are the champions.
00:17:17
Speaker
We're winners.
00:17:18
Speaker
Oh, your little feelings party didn't work out, huh?
00:17:21
Speaker
Who won the hugging contest?
00:17:22
Speaker
No, let me guess.
00:17:23
Speaker
Everyone tied for first.
00:17:25
Speaker
But back to hate.
00:17:27
Speaker
Let me be very clear.
00:17:28
Speaker
I'm not condoning acting on hate or instilling violence upon someone or a group of people.
00:17:35
Speaker
I'm not saying the kind of hate where you're blind to the rights of others, the right to exist, is good or right.
00:17:42
Speaker
It is indeed wrong.
00:17:44
Speaker
I'm not saying that being...
00:17:46
Speaker
even vocal about, and ugly about your hate is okay.
00:17:50
Speaker
Hell, the very subtitle of my book, The Decline of Common Sense Manners and Social Skills, infers that, regardless of any person's ideology, beliefs, or point of view, we should all treat each other with respect, manners, and good social skills.
00:18:03
Speaker
However, being the recipient of those three things is earned.
00:18:09
Speaker
You don't just get respect and spoken to with good manners and social skills because you breathe.
00:18:15
Speaker
And you sure as hell don't get them because you think you're special.
00:18:19
Speaker
Or think you're oppressed.
00:18:21
Speaker
Or you have some made-up pronouns.
00:18:23
Speaker
Or decide you identify as someone else.
00:18:25
Speaker
Nope, you still have to maintain.
00:18:28
Speaker
So, to further my point, let's say you identify as the opposite sex.
00:18:33
Speaker
Go nuts!
00:18:34
Speaker
But you better not act a fool, as they say.
00:18:37
Speaker
And if you do...
00:18:39
Speaker
And the rest of the world won't coddle you, give your special privileges, won't follow you, download you, like you on social media, and someone disagrees with you or even calls you a name.
00:18:49
Speaker
You can label it hate all you want, but call it what it really is.
00:18:54
Speaker
A different point of view.
00:18:55
Speaker
A disagreement.
00:18:56
Speaker
Even a disapproval, maybe.
00:18:59
Speaker
But hate...
00:19:02
Speaker
Don't like a certain race?
00:19:03
Speaker
Feel free!
00:19:04
Speaker
But don't whine, complain, scream victim or oppression, or place blame because you can't do life right.
00:19:10
Speaker
Your hate is what another pro might label as simple dislike.
00:19:15
Speaker
When you start getting denied service, a job, a loan, a promotion,
00:19:19
Speaker
Then you can start the legal process that sues for discrimination.
00:19:23
Speaker
A form of hate.
00:19:24
Speaker
A tangible manifestation of hate.
00:19:28
Speaker
You don't get to label anything someone else doesn't like as hate.
00:19:31
Speaker
Especially if it doesn't agree with your emotions.
00:19:35
Speaker
And you
Civility and the Role of Hate in Society
00:19:36
Speaker
don't get to label the opinion of another that isn't in line with yours hate or hate speech.
00:19:41
Speaker
Amateurs react to the very topic of topic number two with this week in trans privilege as hate speech.
00:19:49
Speaker
When I didn't say anything inflammatory towards trans people, I didn't call for action against them or say they were inherently bad people.
00:19:59
Speaker
But if a non-trans person mentions trans people, depending on whether their hair is purple or not, is now hate speech.
00:20:08
Speaker
This podcast is taking hate back.
00:20:11
Speaker
The way amateurs carelessly use the word hate, many people, pros and amateurs alike, casually and harmlessly use the word love.
00:20:19
Speaker
I love chocolate.
00:20:20
Speaker
Harmless.
00:20:21
Speaker
Inaccurate, but harmless.
00:20:23
Speaker
It's semantics, admittedly.
00:20:24
Speaker
Yes, I'm nitpicking, but in an effort to make my point.
00:20:27
Speaker
Amateur Nation is now as careless with the word hate as many people are in casually using the word love.
00:20:33
Speaker
People use love when they really mean, I like it a lot, or I'm passionate about something, or I simply prefer something.
00:20:40
Speaker
It's harmless, but it's the same type of use.
00:20:45
Speaker
Except it's not harmless.
00:20:46
Speaker
It's thrown around.
00:20:48
Speaker
Hate.
00:20:48
Speaker
The very word is so...
00:20:51
Speaker
maligning, so strong sounding that people think that using it makes something more definitive.
00:20:58
Speaker
Now it's a fact.
00:21:01
Speaker
Remember the greed speech Michael Douglas gave in the 80s juggernaut movie Wall Street?
00:21:06
Speaker
Here it is.
00:21:07
Speaker
Here's just the first couple lines.
00:21:10
Speaker
The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good.
00:21:18
Speaker
Greed is right.
00:21:21
Speaker
Greed works.
00:21:24
Speaker
Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
00:21:32
Speaker
I would argue that you could substitute the word hate.
00:21:37
Speaker
The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that hate, for lack of a better word,
00:21:42
Speaker
is good.
00:21:44
Speaker
Hate is right.
00:21:46
Speaker
Hate works.
00:21:48
Speaker
Hate clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
00:21:55
Speaker
To be clear, and admittedly, I throw around the word hate sometimes.
00:21:59
Speaker
I hate peas.
00:22:00
Speaker
I hate laziness and complacency.
00:22:02
Speaker
Do I really hate those things?
00:22:04
Speaker
No, but they really do make me hostile.
00:22:06
Speaker
They make me fidgety, antsy,
00:22:09
Speaker
Laziness and complacency, it kickstarts my stubbornness.
00:22:12
Speaker
I get annoyed.
00:22:14
Speaker
Laziness and complacency in others makes me question values and character.
00:22:18
Speaker
But I'm pro enough to still know lazy and complacent people have a right to live and try to change and wake the hell up and change.
00:22:25
Speaker
But like in the Wall Street speech, hate, for me, does indeed clarify who I want to socialize with, do business with, and date its definitive.
00:22:35
Speaker
No one escapes feeling that kind of hate.
00:22:41
Speaker
Hate cuts through and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
00:22:46
Speaker
Hate is what made nations, corporations, and built empires.
00:22:50
Speaker
Those people hated being in poverty.
00:22:54
Speaker
They hated struggling.
00:22:55
Speaker
They hated
00:22:57
Speaker
the tyrannical governments that were oppressing them.
00:22:59
Speaker
So they worked hard, and that hate motivated them to make better for themselves.
00:23:05
Speaker
Man hated seeing his competitor do better than him.
00:23:08
Speaker
I'm not saying it's the sole factor, but it is indeed a factor.
00:23:13
Speaker
You know, I quit my job because I hated working for someone else.
00:23:15
Speaker
I wanted to make my own way.
00:23:17
Speaker
You've heard that kind of statement.
00:23:19
Speaker
Most people assume conflict means the bigger, stronger, rich, bad people beat up on the poor, honest, good people.
00:23:28
Speaker
Ever seen a bully get his or her ass kicked by the victim who's had enough?
00:23:32
Speaker
That's some good hatin' right there.
00:23:34
Speaker
That's called payback.
00:23:35
Speaker
I've been that kid more than once.
00:23:38
Speaker
So, I will sum up.
00:23:40
Speaker
A. Hate may not really be hate, but rather dislike, disagreement, and or not having all the information.
00:23:47
Speaker
Hate is an often overused and misused word.
00:23:52
Speaker
B.
00:23:53
Speaker
Real hatred is mentally and emotionally crippling and wrong and acting on it.
00:23:59
Speaker
And any kind of tangible oppression is indeed wrong.
00:24:03
Speaker
Example, violence against another.
00:24:05
Speaker
Denial of basic human rights.
00:24:08
Speaker
C. Good hate keeps amateurs at bay.
00:24:14
Speaker
The people who are doing life wrong.
00:24:17
Speaker
The speed bumps of life.
00:24:18
Speaker
The people that are in your way every day.
00:24:21
Speaker
The unintelligent, obnoxious, attention whoring, self-entitled, drama queen, victim types who chip away at the moments of your life due to no self-awareness, common sense, manners, or social skills and are disturbing the flow of the pros.
00:24:35
Speaker
D.
00:24:36
Speaker
As long as you keep your hate to yourself and don't, again, commit a harmful act or action towards another, hate is the fence, the gate, the locked door that keeps out the amateurs.
00:24:49
Speaker
E. If you are unaware of hate towards you, it simply doesn't exist, nor does it affect your life.
00:24:57
Speaker
Nothing wrong with hating someone or something and keeping it to yourself.
00:25:01
Speaker
Until hatred is manifested in some kind of act or oppression, it's simply self-protection.
00:25:08
Speaker
F. Pros can indeed hate someone or something and still act with common sense, good manners, and social skills towards that person.
00:25:17
Speaker
That's called civility.
00:25:20
Speaker
G. You don't have to love or even like everyone and everything.
00:25:25
Speaker
And it sure as hell doesn't mean the stuff or people you don't like or love should get special treatment.
00:25:30
Speaker
Because H.
Conclusion and Positive Highlights
00:25:32
Speaker
Wouldn't that mean, since they don't like you or love you, then shouldn't you get special treatment?
00:25:49
Speaker
Not ready for a full meal?
00:25:51
Speaker
Kind of fooling the three topics?
00:25:53
Speaker
Let's pick from the a la carte menu, shall we?
00:25:57
Speaker
If you're upset about Twitter reinstating accounts, you've proven the point that you're against free speech and a commie.
00:26:07
Speaker
You know, at least President Coloring Book has old age and dementia as an excuse for his incessant rambling.
00:26:12
Speaker
Cackling Kamala Harris defies logic.
00:26:15
Speaker
I don't care what the context is in this next clip.
00:26:17
Speaker
She has too many quotes that are just beyond unnecessary, stupid, irrelevant, untimely, and inappropriate.
00:26:23
Speaker
What will the quote be this week?
00:26:25
Speaker
Door stops?
00:26:26
Speaker
How bookmarks work?
00:26:27
Speaker
Leaves?
00:26:29
Speaker
Nope.
00:26:29
Speaker
You know, I grew up in a household where the term mammary gland was used all the time.
00:26:36
Speaker
to any of the scientists here you'll know what that means you know hormones hormones it was always that was part of the conversation at the dinner table ever try to get a produce sticker off of an apple you want to kill someone i saw a commercial for a men's slipper that touted quote slippers so comfortable you won't want to take them off introducing the first all-day all-purpose slipper
00:27:03
Speaker
If I see you wearing slippers out in public, men, trying to pass it off as everyday wear, I'm assuming you're very vulnerable and ready for a mugging.
00:27:12
Speaker
Just put on a robe and call it a day.
00:27:16
Speaker
Commercials where men are portrayed as stupid have to stop.
00:27:20
Speaker
I saw a commercial for men's pants where they say, let's face it, buying pants is hard.
00:27:26
Speaker
And another one for pants that says, buying pants is a pain.
00:27:30
Speaker
So buying pants is kicking your ass now, Amateur Nation.
00:27:33
Speaker
Just get a purse.
00:27:34
Speaker
You're done.
00:27:35
Speaker
Sometimes I wonder if I have ovaries in my scrotum.
00:27:38
Speaker
I saw a TV commercial for a slip-on sneaker that doesn't even require bending to touch your shoe or using your hand.
00:27:48
Speaker
The quote is, still tying your shoes?
00:27:50
Speaker
It's 2022.
00:27:52
Speaker
Amateur Nation, right there.
00:27:55
Speaker
New is better.
00:27:56
Speaker
Think of the time saved.
00:27:58
Speaker
Tying shoes is old.
00:28:00
Speaker
There's irony.
00:28:01
Speaker
You're putting on sneakers to be active, but you can't be bothered with the old people way of putting on shoes, which also ironically, seniors would probably benefit most from these.
00:28:15
Speaker
White privilege?
00:28:16
Speaker
Apparently all other races in Amateur Nation hate you and you get blamed for literally everything past, present, and future.
00:28:23
Speaker
No other races did anything bad nor harmed or exploited anyone else.
00:28:27
Speaker
I fail to see the privilege.
00:28:31
Speaker
Craft singles for when you need to give your dog medicine.
00:28:36
Speaker
Here's a not so fun fact.
00:28:39
Speaker
58% of coronavirus deaths in August were people who were vaccinated or boosted.
00:28:45
Speaker
Hey, it's in Amateur Nation's favorite rag, the Washington Post, so it must be true.
00:28:52
Speaker
And don't forget, Amateur Nation, your other beloved bastion of trust in mainstream media, CBS, finally verified Hunter Biden's laptop, only two years after the fact and days after the midterms.
00:29:04
Speaker
How convenient.
00:29:05
Speaker
You're an absolute joke if you still support this administration.
00:29:08
Speaker
You literally are complicit in the coverup in your denial and complacency.
00:29:12
Speaker
Shame on all of you.
00:29:15
Speaker
And don't forget, December 8th is Pansexual Pride Day.
00:29:20
Speaker
Go ahead, ask your boss for the day off.
00:29:27
Speaker
All right, let's have it.
00:29:28
Speaker
Three pro things, three things that are done right.
00:29:30
Speaker
Number one.
00:29:40
Speaker
You know, I haven't had a whiskey pick in a while, and I stumbled across a really good one.
00:29:43
Speaker
It's called Fistful of Bourbon.
00:29:45
Speaker
Now, normally, I'm not a blend kind of guy, but I'm also not a whiskey snob, and this very affordable bourbon blends five bourbon whiskeys, and the description is dead-on.
00:29:55
Speaker
Balanced and sweet.
00:29:56
Speaker
Green, leafy, floral, and my favorite, soft spices and hints of nutmeg.
00:30:01
Speaker
Now, as for the buttery toffee and cinnamon and licorice, it must be super subtle because...
00:30:07
Speaker
I don't see it.
00:30:07
Speaker
But still, for under 30 bones, it's damn good whiskey, and I'll be getting it again.
00:30:13
Speaker
Number two.
00:30:16
Speaker
I'm a Formula One fan, and my boy, the man who broke Lewis Hamilton's woke, oppressed brain, Max Verstappen, is once again the world champion.
00:30:24
Speaker
With 15 wins in a season, which is the most by a driver in a season ever.
00:30:30
Speaker
Back-to-back world championships.
00:30:33
Speaker
Max Verstappen.
00:30:35
Speaker
Number three.
00:30:38
Speaker
Okay, let me be clear.
00:30:39
Speaker
I'm not a U2 fan.
00:30:40
Speaker
I like a few of their songs, but overall, meh.
00:30:43
Speaker
And I certainly can't handle the self-importance and self-righteousness and the constant spouting off that lead singer Bono often does.
00:30:50
Speaker
However, I stumbled upon this audio clip of Matt Walsh mentioning Bono's completion of his memoirs via a New York Times interview.
00:30:59
Speaker
Listen to this revelation by Bono that we, in ProNation, always knew.
00:31:04
Speaker
As for figuring out himself, Bono is in his mid-60s now.
00:31:06
Speaker
It's probably time to start arriving at a few conclusions before it's too late.
00:31:10
Speaker
He's apparently written a memoir, which explains why he was doing the New York Times interview.
00:31:13
Speaker
Most of the interview doesn't interest me, but there is one admission that did interest me.
00:31:18
Speaker
He says this, quote, I ended up as an activist in a very different place from where I started.
00:31:22
Speaker
I thought that if we just redistributed resources, then we could solve every problem.
00:31:27
Speaker
I now know that's not true.
00:31:29
Speaker
There's a funny moment when you realize as an activist, the off-ramp out of extreme poverty is, ugh, commerce.
00:31:36
Speaker
It's entrepreneurial capitalism.
00:31:38
Speaker
Gee, you think, Bono?
00:31:39
Speaker
I mean, Paul Hewson?
00:31:41
Speaker
Imagine, a privileged, uber-wealthy rock star whose net worth is $700 million realized self-reliance and entrepreneurialism, you know, making your own way is the way to go.
00:31:54
Speaker
Eh, sure, he might lose a few amateur fans.
00:31:56
Speaker
I mean, their knee-jerkism is only rivaled by their complacency.
00:32:00
Speaker
See, people moving to Canada when Trump got elected.
00:32:03
Speaker
I'd love to see a stat on, I don't know, say the six months after Trump got elected on how many Americans moved to Canada.
00:32:11
Speaker
Well, we're waiting.
00:32:15
Speaker
Nah, it's just easier to delete their Twitter accounts.
00:32:18
Speaker
It's less work.
00:32:19
Speaker
Except for announcing that they're leaving Twitter.
00:32:22
Speaker
I'm leaving the party now!

Remember, amateurs, we see you.
00:32:54
Speaker
You're not at home.
00:32:55

Don't do life wrong.
00:32:57

Go pro.
00:32:58
Speaker
I'm ready to go pro.
00:32:59

Don't be an amateur.

Speaker
For Amateur Nation, I'm Lou Santini, and this has been a big, major production.
00:33:06
Speaker
