0:00 you can tell everybody you're Italian I hear about Caroline she's a ████ phony and you're doing and telling things going look at me come on like look at this oh look at it I tied a god [Music] so there's a Reuters investigation that just revealed that over a hundred U.S government officials from both sides all right it's not just Republicans besides okay both sides all sides actually including independent and every living former U.S president except for Trump is a direct descendant from slaveholders Wow except for Trump oh that makes sense his family is a new immigrant yeah because they weren't here because his uh grandfather is an immigrant because
0:50 they're new money probably huh well they're not they're they weren't from America originally no it was just great they were first not that anyone was but like no yeah I think it was actually his grandfather his grandfather's from the Netherlands or something so they didn't his family didn't arrive in U.S until after abolition so um but every other living president even Obama yeah yeah his white side damn they ruined it yeah it's it's a well come on here he's related to safeholders too really yeah I remember that being mind-blowing too ████ yeah because what is she is she she's halfway she's half black and Indian no yeah no this can't make any sense you know why because the Asian Senators had there's no way they own slaves it says out of um it doesn't say all Senators it's all five living
1:41 presidents two supreme court justices 11 Governors and 100 legislators oh okay all these people that are currently in the government I thought you met all senators and all like right yeah no that wouldn't we know that had slaves in in all of history except other Asians is that bad isn't it a thing that like Korea was the longest country to still maintain slavery was it I think they maintain or they were they still do it but they still did it like way the ████ out really I think yeah they got rid of it in the 90s or some ████ like black guys like me oh yeah for sure but yeah in terms of like lawmakers and all these people in the government on both sides both sides both sides I do know a lot of the like super high level politician
2:33 it's like you know you have like your boys club and a lot of them are like generational because of the roots that they have so it's easier to just extend the Legacy like if your dad was ████ I don't know like James or your great grandpa's like James Madison or some ████ then they went to like I don't know Yale so you go to Yale and then you already have the connects to be on the fast track to do whatever so for people that want to be like new family I mean like New Politics we would probably start at the local level and I'd probably get I don't know maybe to the state level then it's easier to kind of give taika a leg up and the Titan give his kid like up into the federal yeah and by the time they're there they're kind of encouraging their family to kind of be really really what's the thing it's called endowments too it's like you know if you went to Yale right yeah and then you're you've been donating to Yale now we all know your kids getting into Yale that's just how it works it's like
3:23 a whole thing yeah that's true now they all know which schools to go to like this kid's gonna go to West Point because of this or like you know they all it's like a big Network that they just passed down if you're if you're like the elite families even during like colonial times in New England doesn't that make sense like you stay in the community for Generations it's almost like a small town of people that all knew each other so I'm like why why is that a conspiracy that makes sense what's a conspiracy all the people that are like ruling like the aristocrats of America are like all these like they're related the people who say it's the conspiracy or the aristor of the aristocrats yeah it's it's yeah the rest of us are like yeah we see it it's very like I think I think what it points out is that like there's no there's no room to call out descendants of slave owners
4:14 specifically because both sides come from that yeah yeah but it's a it's a nice little hot button topic to be like your family owned slaves yeah it's really confusing because the KKK were a part of the Democratic Party a lot of people don't know that nobody wants to know that yeah I mean Abraham Lincoln is a republican he freed the slaves right but the difference is over time humans are constantly being born and dying so different groups take over the left and the right all the time yeah it's like switching it's not the same exact group every single time so like they can't really snapshot a piece of history and be like oh you see this is this group and it's like well it's a different group now and it's just continuously going to keep changing
5:04 right that kind of in a way kind of eliminates that as part of the conversation in terms of like who should be disqualified because their lineage was X or Y it's kind of like hey I mean if that was America at a point and your ancestry does go back that far chances are you probably benefited from it yeah if this was school yard ████ though like kids at a schoolyard it's a little bit of a different conversation isn't it it's like dude my ancestors ripped the ████ out of your ancestors ████ completely changes the topic doesn't it like you use it as a as leverage against the other person versus yeah versus the way it is now where we're all like oh yeah that sucks and so I'm sorry but when you're a kid you just want to ████ win the argument yeah yeah maybe in the 90s and 2000s that's true I feel like now everybody's well it's like um
5:56 how do you well so the thing is like a lot of these people might even be like oh thanks for doing the lineage thing I had no idea it takes about I want to say three generations maxed till you're estranged with your own history or like some people don't even know like what if you're born out of wedlock and you do have a lineage to this family but you're like estranged like what happens to them yeah like should you should those stains follow you you're still a slave owner that's what yeah or you're the opposite of what's the opposite of strange where you get ████ attached and you don't even know like our Guilty By Association like one of our friends is a interior designer and then uh her whole life her grandma was like oh what's up you do this thing because it's Italian thing it's Italian thing whatever right and then she did like 23andMe and found out
6:48 she's actually like Colombian and then it was like something about like her what who she thought her Grandpa was wasn't even her Grandpa and then she was like but wait Grandma you knew that so why would you still tell me it was an Italian day when you knew I was like half Colombian the whole time so it's like her whole but that shifted her whole identity because she always like for the last 40 years thought she was ████ that is that would be a weird identity crisis isn't that crazy she thought she's Italian for 40 years you embrace your culture your whole life yeah you tell everybody you're Italian you hear about Caroline she's a ████ phony and you're doing Italian things going look at me come on like look at this oh look at it I tied a garlic not perfect oh I hand make my own pasta thank you that's so crazy you're just Colombian the whole time that's a pretty big I'm actually Hispanic what the ████ yeah but
7:38 then there's little hints sometimes you have someone's pasta and you're like oh this must be him and they're like no it's like those ████ there's all they had to soften and it's not even like close like if you were like oh I'm not Sicilian I'm just regular Italian because it's all imagine like how many of those there are too you know where it's like their their families with like artificially joined together but not even but what about like you're if you're you're dad's O.J Simpson are you like a ████ ████ yeah you know what I mean like like why are we doing this ████ about Generations ago like some people had ████ up parents right now who everyone knows like they're probably murders or whatever but people aren't like oh OJ's kids that's ████ up you're ████ up would you hang out with OJ's kid exactly of course I would you're a product of your history yeah because what exactly I want to find out who the real killer is it's a beautiful topic though because
8:29 there's nothing you can do about it except argue there's nothing you do forever because most people have empathy for kids who grew up in a ████ up like your parents are criminals it's like poor you so it's like if your grandparents had that stain isn't it like poor you also because it's like yeah it's like dude they they were born into that family do you think they wanted to right I think the main argument that I've heard is that these people are in the exact position they are in life because at some point somebody had it really good yeah so they're benefiting on the trickle-down generationally they're like oh you're not going to hear me defend politicians my friend I'm with you whatever you want but at the same time it's like okay but what are you gonna do about it that is yeah right it's like it's like okay yeah they're they've benefited so it's like are you gonna you're gonna kill their all ████ family well and
9:20 we're this we're the Schmucks who like every time these guys get elected right we are the ones who reelect them every ████ time exactly because I'm like exactly they're not waiting for no reason they're getting voted in Eighty percent of the incumbents get reelected yeah we keep doing it right so it's like are you participating in the system voting because a lot of people that do comment they're not voting yeah right dude I comment all the time I haven't voted and I don't know how long that's also not a disqualifying prerequisite like it's not like they're going oh you're not eligible to run for governor because you have a slave owner in your genealogy it's not yeah it doesn't disqualify you I don't know so bringing it up is kind of like well what does that do actually I don't understand why right now it's this weird time where you can't judge a individual's character and like
10:10 see their track record but you just it's like you don't even see them as a human being you see them as like a caricature of what you want to believe like this is an Asian guy or whatever a white like slave owner or whatever right but it's like they're they're like it's like what about what what have they done in the past and if they've done criminal ████ then yeah like we should regulate but if they have a clean record and you know they're just politicking and it's like what's the agenda right we need to argue with each other about meaningless things like if your kids if your your children are innocent of the things that you have done and yet we do this ████ about certain topics but not others like your dad could have been a murderer your mom could have like drowned a a kid but nobody cares about that nobody like
11:00 nobody's like I can't eat with you because of that yeah but if it's cherry picking yeah Hitler had kids right should we execute them exactly it's like that we should consider isn't there something in China where like you have to pay the debt of your parent if they ████ up or something I think it's like it's three generations I think that's North Korea that's North Korea only no they have some kind of weird ████ where your whole family gets ████ up yeah oh well yeah they they just yeah wipe you out yeah but it's like a generation isn't there something monetarily like like if you died with owing money like crazy it doesn't just disappear in Asia certain countries that I don't know because here it's just gone right yeah I think if you die in your lower debt yeah I think I thought it gets passed down to the kids no because you can't like that's why they don't give you can't be 99 and sign up for life insurance
11:50 because you're gonna die tomorrow I'm gonna pay you like a million dollars you can be 50 instead of life insurance sometimes man yeah my old man just had to give up life insurance because he's like they keep on raising the rates on me he's been bait for like 25 years I think he finally just ████ gave up he's like they're raising it through the goddamn room did he get anything back no I'm getting priced out of my own life it's insane he just paid all that money and then it just yes for nothing how much do you think it was total I had to be I mean I had to be hundreds and hundreds of thousands yeah so he doesn't get any of it I don't think so he didn't he certainly didn't brag about it on the phone seemed pretty pissed maybe he doesn't he doesn't want you to have any of it it could be the story off the set
