Harvey Weinstein's Overturned Conviction & TikTok Ban | The Tim Dillon Show #390

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show.
As always, thank you for listening.
The TikTok ban is on its way.
It has passed, I believe, both houses of Congress.
It is now well on its way to becoming the law of the land.
It has broad support in Washington, D.C.
Our president, the wise Joseph Robinette Biden,
is going to pass it.
He will not veto it.
They're trying to force a sale.
They want to give TikTok, the ByteDance,
the Chinese company, I believe, that owns it,
they want to force a sale so that an American company will buy it.
And that will, then TikTok will avoid its fate of being banned.
If they cannot force a sale, then the app will get banned.
The timeline of that is anybody's guess.
Congress has passed a bill this week as part of a wide-ranging foreign aid
package
meant to support Israel and the Ukraine.
So this TikTok ban is in the bill where we are giving money to Israel and the
Ukraine.
They have 270 days to sell TikTok.
Failure to do so would lead to significant consequences.
So that's what they got.
They got under a year to sell TikTok or it's out.
I would argue that whether they sell it or not, it's already done.
I'm making the prediction now that I think that this is already the end.
I believe it's the end.
Somebody might buy it, but it's probably now inevitably going to start its
decline.
I'm guessing.
And the reason that I say that is because all the people that have become
massive on TikTok
have started to fade.
TikTok got really big in 2020 during the pandemic.
Now there are, is it 200 million people on the app?
170 million U.S. users.
7 million businesses that operate on the app.
I never had a lot of people on TikTok.
I tried for a little bit.
I couldn't get into it.
It wasn't for me.
I have no emotional investment in this.
I don't care if it's banned.
I know why they want to ban it.
They probably want to ban it for a myriad of reasons.
Young people are getting a lot of information from TikTok.
I don't know if the government loves that.
Because by the way, you know, Jonathan Haidt,
I believe the last name is pronounced that way,
just wrote a book that says social media is damaging to your children,
which is true because it's feeds their anxiety and everything.
But it's also not,
it does no good for the government to have everybody on TikTok
or any social media getting and learning about what is going on.
That's not part of this.
If it's all dancing, it's fine.
It looked like it was great in the beginning
because everybody was dancing in their living room.
Then it started to become like,
hey, why did we shoot that baby in the face?
Now, they don't want that.
They don't want people asking,
why did we shoot the baby in the face?
There's a lot of reasons we shoot the baby in the face.
You'll get it when you're older.
How about you ask that after you get your first car?
We don't want to explain why we shot the baby in the face
to a prepubescent know-it-all.
So, the Jonathan Haidt book is basically a book
about how damaging social media is to your children
because they go on social media
and they find out what losers they are
and then that bothers them.
It's called The Anxious Generation.
Now, this is all true.
Young kids with unfettered access to social media
is probably not good for their development.
It's causing an epidemic of mental illness.
You go on sites like TikTok,
you simply pick the illness that you want as a child.
It's true.
You choose, we used to choose,
it's like BMX bikes.
Now, you choose an ailment,
a disease, an illness, a community.
So, the Jonathan Haidt book,
but this is the beginning, I believe,
of, because again,
what tends to happen with all this stuff
is that it's like a dam breaking.
It's not, there's no one aha moment
where everybody sees the light.
It's little by little,
people start realizing the negatives of social media.
But, I will tell you this,
but I will tell you this,
the government doesn't care if your children are mentally ill.
They don't.
If they did, they would ban the food additives.
They would ban, they don't care.
It's not something they really have an investment in.
The mental health of your children.
We don't run the,
they don't care about the mental health of adults.
It did, it's not what it is.
This is not a country designed
because we want to help people's mental health.
People in this country live,
many of them, without health insurance.
They are one car accident away
from complete financial collapse.
That's not a system that lends to people's mental health.
The government doesn't care.
They're not concerned with your mental health.
There is very little funding for mental health problems.
They don't care.
Getting, my mother was a schizophrenic.
We had to institutionalize her.
The process of getting somebody into a mental hospital
is very tough.
They don't want to pay.
They had a Medicare and stuff.
They don't want to pay.
They don't want to pay.
They're like, she seems fine.
All these people that are getting punched
in New York City in the face,
they're getting punched by people that are mentally ill.
And these people are walking around the streets
and nobody's putting them in mental hospitals
because it's, you know,
a hard thing to get somebody into a mental hospital.
It's not easy.
There's laws that prevent you from committing someone.
And there's also a lot of people that go,
we don't really want to pay
for the mental health care of strangers.
So we'll just hope they don't throw us in front of a train.
You know?
So this idea that the government cares about,
they also don't care about your privacy.
Well, the Chinese are spying on us.
They tick-tock.
They don't care.
They don't, they're spying on you.
The government is also doing all those things.
The Chinese are doing, they don't care.
They don't care.
They may not want China to have a leg up.
They don't care.
I think a lot of it is coming down to the fact
that they don't love what,
remember when the Bin Laden letter went viral on TikTok
and all these young girls were flicking their bean
to Bin Laden?
They were all,
everybody's masturbating to Bin Laden.
I even jerked off to Bin Laden.
That's what was going on
because his letter came out
and people were like,
whoa, I kind of like this guy.
So everybody was flicking their bean to Bin Laden.
I mean, he might as well have been
one of the Stranger Things people.
He got big on TikTok.
And they didn't love that.
And now we have the thing with Israel and Gaza
and whatever you think or however you feel,
young kids are turning against the U.S. war machine,
which we don't need that right now
because we got a few.
What do we do?
What do we give the Ukraine?
Another 60 billion?
A lot of dead kids.
That's what that is.
Now, everyone's talking about Gaza and I get it,
but you got to realize that $60 billion,
the Ukraine and Russia have both conscripted people.
They've drafted kids, not kids,
but young adults, college, age, into the military.
Instead of trying,
and Putin will go to a negotiating table.
We have constantly told the president of the Ukraine
to not go to that negotiating table.
We are feeding young Ukrainian men
and young Russian men
into a meat grinder.
into a meat grinder.
And no one cares.
We think it's good.
We actually think it's great.
People cheer.
They cheer.
When we pass that aid package,
everybody cheers.
Yeah!
But it's just going to be a lot of dead Ukrainians
and a lot of dead Russians.
And we're just trying to bleed the Russian military dry.
We don't care.
Here we go.
I know this is going to shock everybody.
We do not care
about these two regions in northern Ukraine
that nobody could pronounce and still can't.
We don't care.
It has zero to do with America's national security.
It has zero to do with our national interest.
Zero.
We do not care.
We're giving them $60 billion
in the hopes
that we bleed the Russian military
and eventually there's a regime change in Russia.
That's what we're trying to do.
That's what we're trying to do.
And people celebrate it.
They go,
we're doing the right,
it's the right thing to do.
More dead kids.
More dead kids.
It's what,
that's the one,
you know,
and if you say anything about it
or people are like,
they're like upset.
They're upset.
So it's like,
okay,
how much should we give to Israel?
15,
14 billion?
Yeah,
15.
So they got that.
Ukraine got 60
and then we're getting rid of TikTok.
That's going.
Why did they shoot that baby in the face?
Hey,
hey,
will you sit down?
there's a lot you don't understand about the world.
Like why sometimes we have to shoot babies in the face.
It's so easy for you in your school with your friends,
but you don't get it.
You don't get the sacrifices that are made by brave men and women who sometimes
have to shoot a baby in the face.
And I'm a little sick of you oversimplifying everything in your head.
You come in here and you come in here and you sit at this table and you ask me,
why?
Why are we shooting a baby in the face?
Well,
I'll tell you why.
I'll tell you why.
There's no other option.
Sometimes in life,
there's no other option other than to shoot a baby in its face.
Now go to bed.
Give me that phone.
Give me that phone.
You got,
I don't want to talk to you anymore.
I get it.
Phones have made the kids annoying.
I get it.
It has.
They're all trans.
They're all fat.
The pedophiles in this country don't even know what to do.
They're tranny boom bannies and fatty boom baddies.
They're all 400 pound communists who don't know what genitals they have and
which ones they want to cut off and chop off.
I get it.
And they're also asking very uncomfortable questions about why we seem to be
all over the world,
killing people all the time.
Our being like other young people contacted for this story wonders if the
tick tock band is an effort to control the information that young people are
receiving.
I hate to say it and it sounds like a conspiracy theory,
but I do feel as though the U S government is trying to snuff the people and
their voice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You got it.
You got it.
They don't want the questions.
They don't want these questions because you,
you have to,
you have to have these long conversations with your children.
You know,
sit down,
honey,
sit down.
You know how much me and your father love you.
You know how much we love you.
And we want to make sure that you understand everything.
Okay.
Now you came downstairs in tears asking us,
why did that baby get shot in its face?
Honey,
sometimes there are questions we don't have the answers to.
We don't have the answers to.
You ever just look out at the moon and the stars.
I don't know why the sun rises every day,
but it does.
And we bask in its warm glow.
We bask in its warm glow.
We don't know why that beautiful moon comes out every night and enchants our
yard with moonlight.
And we certainly don't know why that baby had to get shot in its face.
But all we can hope is that if we shoot enough babies in the face,
listen to me,
listen to your mother,
listen to your mother,
listen to your mother who loves you.
Listen to mommy.
Mommy wants your attention.
If we shoot enough babies in the face,
then eventually babies won't have to worry about getting shot in the face.
Do you understand that?
We're going to shoot enough babies so that eventually no babies will get shot.
Do you get that?
Not really.
Oh,
you're so young.
You're so young and innocent.
I'm a cold old whore.
Your mother's a cold old whore.
I am not even attracted to your father anymore.
When he climbs on top of me and puts his half-hard penis in my old cobweb-filled
vagina,
I just close my eyes and wait for it to end.
The only happiness I have is when I take three or four glasses of Pinot Grigio
to the head and I get away with driving home drunk and I masturbate thinking of
women.
But I'll tell you this right now.
But I'll tell you this right now.
I have learned to not ask questions like you.
And you will too.
When you're my age and you're in a relationship with a man you don't love and
you when he climbs on top of you
