Welcome to the day before election day. It is November second. That’s the broadcast date for this program. And I had mentioned in the past that there were an awful lot of Democrats complaining about election rigging and so on and so forth. And I had remarked at the time, and I think it was on X, they’re talking about it an awful lot, which means to me that they’re going to be doing it. Well, we know they’re doing it. You’ve probably heard all the stories.
Locally, we’ve had a number of situations where towns and teachers’ unions have been engaged in electioneering, to which I said, Well, it’s cheap campaign investment. You electioneer, you get a targeted message to a targeted audience, probably paid for by taxpayers, and the fine is a thousand dollars. How much is it worth to reach X individuals who have a vested interest in your message, even if you’re lying or misleading them?
For the low, low price of $1,000, plus whatever it costs you to send the thing out.
Like, for example, we have illegal mailers going out into the state. Again, coming from Democrats, and they don’t care. They’ll just pay the fine. Somebody probably already gave them the money to pay the fine. And that’s how they play the game. There is a bigger game going on.
And of course, you’ve heard the stories about how Democrats are gonna be like, it was rigged. It’s illegitimate. It’s all the same messaging. Their change agents are there is no change. You know who the change agent is?
Donald Trump. He’s the only political change agent that we’ve had, maybe in my lifetime, except for Reagan(?).
And they hate the change agent. None of them want change. There are lots of Republicans who don’t want change. There’s a whole bunch of Democrats, just about every single one of them, who don’t really want change. They want the same old, same old. Great big government, them in charge, spending your money on stuff that matters to them. That’s their agenda. And when you get mad, they will oppress you and suppress you and do all the things they did during the Biden administration, very much like COVID, but without the virus. That’s what they want. That’s their goal.
And they’ll do anything, anything to get it. Like this.
From the Maine Wire, the Department of Justice is investigating CCTV video from Lewiston’s City Hall that appears to show dozens of instances of NGO workers operating as interpreters, scare quotes, coaching illiterate Somalis on how to vote and even filling out ballots for them. The shocking footage was obtained by the Maine Wire under the Freedom of Access Act and shows left-wing NGOs running an industrial-scale ballot stuffing scheme using non-English-speaking migrants to obtain ballots and then instructing them on how to vote a party line ticket for Democrats.
We review all evidence concerning complaints of voter intimidation and election interference, including the video from Lewiston’s early voting at City Hall. U.S. Attorney for Maine Andrew Benson told the Robinson Report. We will not tolerate threats to the integrity of our elections, and we look forward to working with the Attorney General’s office and the Secretary of State’s office to defend our democracy, said Benson.
This is, of course, Maine. Neither of those people is going to cooperate in any way whatsoever because odds are pretty good they’re behind it. That’s how it works. The Secretary of State in Maine is crazy. She’s a nut job. Left winger. She doesn’t care. Laws don’t apply to them. There are people above the law. That’s why they talk about how there shouldn’t be anybody above the law. You, that’s the ticket right there. If Democrats are talking about it, it’s – they’re breaking that law. They’re doing the thing that they’re accusing their opponents of.
That’s how it works. So we’re gonna get a lot more of this. And you know what’s gonna happen in Maine? Somebody’s gonna accuse them of being bigots and xenophobes and racists and Nazis and moha. That’s how they work. Yeah, I’m a little more animated this week. I’m sorry. Last week’s show was very robotic. I pulled a couple of clips from it, and they were great clips, but they would have been a lot better if I wasn’t just like, but mwah mwahmwah mwah. Anyway, I can’t explain that. I may have been tired. I may have been running late. I may have been well. I don’t know, overworked, there’s a lot going on. And that’s not gonna stop no matter what happens on Tuesday, because obviously the presidential campaign starts after midnight.
Definitely still going to be here. Definitely still going to be talking about it. Definitely going to be your center-right safe space. Yes, we embrace your message. And you can disagree with us. And that’s okay. Because there are a lot of opinions on the right about how much government, how little government, and how it should work. And we have the opportunity to discuss that at length, as long as the Democrats don’t shut it down.
That’s right. They’re the kings, and we are their peasants. But we don’t have to be. We could vote for Republicans tomorrow. Wouldn’t that be a great idea? Not just because Democrats are dangerous, not just because Democrats don’t know how to run an economy. Not just because Democrats want to groom and mutilate your children, not just because Democrats want millions of illegal aliens to come in so that they can skew the House and the Electoral College, which they don’t even really like.
And then there’s about a hundred thousand other reasons. But you just have to remember sorry, I must include the murder cult. I’ve been talking about that a lot. You really don’t want a party in charge who is going to cover for and make excuses for grassroots activists who are basically intimidating, assaulting, and even killing people who disagree with them. All right, not sure what they’re gonna do in Lewiston, but I bet you there’s a lot of that going on around everywhere else.
Our next segment is based on an article from Tyler O’Neill over at the Daily Signal called Gain of Function Marxism. We’re also going to talk about this, if we have time, the last century of moral lectures, failed policies, and manufactured virtue at American greatness. Basically, it’s just understanding the background and the motivations of people on the left; it doesn’t matter what they promise you, what you end up with is awful.
Hang tight. Coming right back.

Steve (00:00)
Welcome back to our second segment. And I did want to point out that I do look a little scruffy. I have sworn an oath to not shave until I feel like it. So there. So anyway, looking at the time it’s gonna take, we’re probably only gonna get to one of the two articles I wanted to fisk: the one Gain of Function Marxism: How Woke 1.0 gave birth to a new, more virulent strain of socialism.
By Tyler O’Neill over at the Daily Signal, well worth your time and attention, starts kinda like this: quote, a new form of socialism has escaped from the lab of woke 1.0, and it seems intent on taking over the left. The strain of socialism driving movements like Democrat Socialists of America goes far beyond the traditional definition of government ownership of the means of production. It marries economic socialism to identity politics.
This isn’t your grandfather’s socialism, featuring factory workers waving red flags and professors droning on about dialectical materialism. The new socialists are young, college educated, and racially diverse. They talk about intersectionality, pronouns, and microaggressions. They may not think the USSR was on the right side of history, but they’re sure America’s on the wrong side of it.
You’ve encountered it.
Probably almost daily if you’re on social media, and that’s important because we’re gonna get into that a little bit in a second, but yeah, it sort of already has taken over the Democrat Party. We’ve always talked about how everything starts out on the campuses; those are the testing grounds and proving grounds for the crazy ideas, and they get to d educate the next generation of so-called intellectuals who spread this like a disease to continue.
Marxist critical theory teaches people to view the world through the lens of oppressor and oppressed. This, of course, you know. Critical race theory teaches that America is institutionally racist and it justifies radical change to root this alleged racism out of our system. Queer theory teaches that an oppressive gender binary keeps us all down. So we have to throw out the old version of human beings as male and female to liberate society.
That’s working out really well. Lots of transgender people on all kinds of drugs, shooting up schools. Good move, that. And of course, it does, feed another idea, the depopulationist idea, the one where we need to have fewer people. And, you know, the Western world is in something of a systemic demographic collapse, while second- and third-world people from what we like to call shithole countries have ten, twelve, fifteen babies with a dozen different wives. So yeah, we’re in trouble because those are the same people who are going to advance another form of fascism, which we’re gonna talk about in just a second.
So, to continue, social media allows us to highlight the best parts of our lives publicly while hiding the work that we did to achieve that success. This creates a hall of mirrors where everyone around you seems wealthier, happier, and more prosperous than you, but you know you’re not as happy as they seem.
I actually wrote a Substack post if you want to go find my Substack, Steve Substack. I wrote a post called Just Admit It You’re Blessed. There’s a link to it underneath this video. You can check it out. But what I wanted to share that’s in that video is a piece of material from comedian Jimmy Carr that, well, here, take a look.
One commenter did rightfully ask who didn’t have a hot shower fifty years ago. And of course everybody in the West had them, but large portions of the world they don’t have them today and a lot large portions of the world they don’t have indoor toilets. So you should be thankful for those. But in that context, let’s say seventy years ago they didn’t have hot showers, or maybe even eighty. In the scope of humans’ existence, that’s a tiny, tiny little sliver of time.
You are blessed, you are lucky, you are doubly lucky for being born in America, and all the people who are envious are trying to take it away from you.
Back to the article, we enjoy a gobsmacking level of absolute prosperity while increasingly measuring our lives by relative deprivation. It matters less that I live better than a king did centuries ago. If the man on my smartphone appears to live better than I do,
Socialism feeds on the gap between those two ways of seeing the world. The ultimate danger of socialism isn’t the pronouns or the microaggressions. Those ideas matter, but socialism’s final answer to economic and cultural grievances remains what it has always been: political power.
Envy, toxic empathy, ideologically driven ignorance.
The cultural Marxists are aligned with the Islamic fascists, and together they have thrown a pall upon the facts, the truth of what happens when Islam takes control. And the Democrats themselves are gobsmacked at the notion that they will still be in power if they ride the train together, or maybe the donkey or the goat or the horse or whatever you like, in pursuit of control and the destruction of the American Republic. Unfortunately, we already know how this works out. It’s just that they think it’ll turn out differently, just like they think socialism will turn out differently, and it won’t. Take a look at this.
And we’ve warned you for years: just the Democrats alone in power; now we’ve got the Islamists riding alongside, and we know who’s gonna kick who off the horse when they get to the finish line.
You are not gonna have a seat at the table. And if you’re an agitator and you’re in the street, you’re gonna end up just like the same people who were involved.
When Mao took over,
There’s always a purge. That woman just explained it to you. The Democrats do that when the socialism becomes something that you can no longer prevent. The Islamists do it in every single country they’ve ever taken over.
The only free ride you are likely to get is to the ditch where they’re gonna throw your body. Along with all the other protesters, be they Antifa, BLM, anti-ICE. Whoever it was, they no longer have any use for you. You are literally a useful idiot, and the odds are good that if you continue to help them, you’ll just be a dead one.
I didn’t make time to fisk the last article, but it is linked below the left’s century of moral lectures, failed policies, and manufactured values. Please take a moment to read it. It’s very interesting and instructive.
