This episode of it’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine was made possible by contributions from slaves like you. Spank you very much President is on his way to Andrew’s to join airborne command Should we give him a launch option? Fire This is not necessary Mr. President We have a diplomatic solution Mr. Vice President, Mr. Secretary The missiles are flying halleluiah let’s see 28 minutes, that’s 18 until it’s inside the US radar cup figure two for our responses say 20 until total commitment I figure 20 or 22 until first impact of our retaliatory strike I figure we have 42 minutes until the end of civilization as we know it Goooood morning slaves, and welcome to the final sedition of It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine, a show for quitters Trump - It’s over, don’t you think it’s over? Stim - Yeah, that’s what I said, this is the final fuckin show Trump - For two weeks you’ve been on the edge, you know that Stim - Well yeah whattaya expect? you’re gonna be fuckin president and besides, every time you eat a taco bowl, you come around here and you stink up the whole fuckin place, tell him Maria Maria - You came in our dressing room and you took at crap and left the stench in the room Stim - Yeah man, at least you could’ve burnt a match or something Trump - You’re fired Stim - You can’t fire me, cause I fuckin quit! Fuck you, Fuck you, Fuck you, you cool, and fuck you I’m out Agitator - Trying to live out some sort of unrealized dream of dramatically quitting your job, stim? How fuckin pathetic. Stim - Yeah I know Agitator, it’s just that..., I wanted to go out with a bang, y’know. Agitator - Well stop being such a whiny piss worm, and let the Greeks show you how it’s done. Remember when you used to play riot porn Stim - yeah… I remember… I remember… I remember… Stim - Thanks Agitator, I needed that, for those of you who just don’t know, 8 years ago on december 6th, pigs in Athens killed teenage anarchist Alexis Grigoropoulos. The reaction from peeps in the A-team was bold and swift, with weeks of epic riots in which 74 cops were injured and lot’s of shit got burned, including cops. Now every December 6th, peeps take to the streets to remember Alexis and to set a few pigs on fire. Check this shit out. Agitator - But seriously dude, why are you fuckin quitting? Stim - Well, agitator, a while back we made a video hating on anarcho-capitalism. Buuuuuuuuuut after pouring over the hundreds of youtube comments, watching some response videos and doing some research, I concluded that letting the free market really be free, would unleash peeps’ creativity and humanity could reach it’s highest potential, through friendly competition, unregulated by the state. So, from now on I will be promoting the tenets of anarcho-capitalism with the creation of a  new fuckin show entitled “Freedom…. in my mom’s basement” HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH Agitator – Good one stim Anywho, while ancaps were furiously whining against feminists and leftists, peeps in North Dakota were bracing for a massive fucking showdown with the pigs on December 5th. You see, the Army Corps of Engineers, the same ones who oversee the shitty levees in New Orleans, issued an eviction notice to folks camping close to a drilling site for the Dakota Access Pipeline or DAPL, saying that it wasn’t safe for them to be there in the winter. Since the Army Corps are super concerned with protecting people’s rights, they even provided water protectors with their very own free speech zone. OK have fun enjoy your right to free speech, the armed forces welcomes your dissent Then on December 4th, the day before the eviction, thousands of US army veterans arrived at the site to serve as human shields to stop police attacks against water protectors, as the stage was set for a massive crackdown. Buuuuuuuuuuuut in a surprise move, the man-your-mama-calls-Obama got the Army Corps to deny a permit for a key part of the pipeline that would borrow under the Missouri river, kick-starting celebrations at the camp and around the world What we need to do is we have to be proud of what we did We have to be honored by the victory and it’s time now it’s time to go home But  some peeps,  felt that it was too soon to claim victory and leave the Standing Rock encampment Energy Transfer came out within hours and said it doesn’t matter what the Obama administration says we’re sticking with this route and we’re going to drill anyway Yep, the fight to stop DAPL is not over, and despite the call from Archambolt that peeps should leave, hard core water protectors are digging in for the long haul. There isn’t a country in the world that would find billion of barrels of oil and leave it in the ground while there is a market for it Meanwhile up in Klanada the Unist’ot’en Camp has been doing some celebrating of their own, as the federal government hammered the final nail in the coffin of the Northern Gateway Pipeline, an Enbridge project that they have been physically blocking for 7 years. Buuuuuuuuuuuuut this victory was also bittersweet, as pretty boy prime minister Justin Trudeau, approved two other tar sands pipelines on the same day, Enbridge’s Line 3 and Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain. Following JT’s announcement, Klanada’s Minister of Natural Resources warned anyone hoping to duplicate what went down In Standing Rock if people choose for their own reasons not to be peaceful then the government of Canada through its defense forces through its police forces will ensure the people are kept safe Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut anyone who has been following indigenous resistance in Klanada for the past 26 years, knows that when native land is threatened peeps here throw down and they throw hard That's great, it starts with an earthquake Birds and snakes, and aeroplanes, And Lenny Bruce is not afraid Let's go! Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn World serves its own needs, Don't mis-serve your own needs Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength, The ladder starts to clatter With a fear of height, down, height Wire in a fire, represent the seven games And a government for hire and a combat site Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry With the Furies breathing down your neck Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped Look at that low plane, fine, then Uh oh, overflow, population, common group But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light Feeling pretty psyched It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it And I feel fine While in the process of wrapping up this fuckin show, I went to my favorite taco joint to do a little self reflecting on the good the bad and the fuckin stupid shit I’ve experienced over the last 10 fuckin years. So I’m gonna spit out a bunch of shit that comes to mind when I think about my work at subMedia since I first started putting out seditions back in 2006, and hopefully set the record straight on a few things. Uno For some fuckin reason, otherwise smart fucking people seem to get off on splitting the world into a series of competing categories. Good versus Bad, Left versus Right, Taco versus Burrito, when in reality shit’s way more complex and nuanced than that. For example.. tacos are quite clearly the most delicious food ever fucking created, but some tacos fucking suck.... like the ones that have pineapple in them, what the fuck. Burritos on the other hand can carry a wide variety of ingredients, that tacos, due to their small size cannot. Plus burritos are way more portable. Fuck, I’m hungry now. anyway, we take great pleasure in crucifying and vilifying the capitalist death machine known as the United Snakes, and nothing would make us happier than to see it disintegrate and the stolen land it was built on returned to its original inhabitants. I think we make this pretty fuckin clear in every single muthafuckin episode. Yet, whenever we publish critiques of so-called “socialist” states, we are labeled as tools of the gringo empire and accused of being financed by the Clinton foundation. Traitor!!!! And on the flip-side, right wingers see our critiques of the Orange one as endorsements of Hill Dawg, and proof that we’re funded by George Soros. If I can be real with y’all, people seriously need to get their heads outta their asses. This type of binary thinking is fuckin useless. So let me set the record straight and please try not to be confused, because... This shit is REAL! Donald Trump is a racist piece of shit, Hillary Clinton is a hawkish piece of shit, Bernie Sanders is a fuckin sellout, Jill Stein is a fuckin idiot and Gary Johnson, ehhhh never mind. Authoritarian socialist states have jailed and killed dissidents including anarchists, and so have capitalists states. They all need to be fucking smashed. I am an anarchist, and a control freak, I love both tacos and burritos, I hate sexists, love hip hop, hate Obama, love freedom. Next! Dos Identity Politics are cannibalizing our movements. Important theoretical contributions that once served as used as tools for understanding and explaining shared experiences of oppression based on race, gender, sexuality, ability and nationality, are increasingly morphing into liberal bullying tactics used to shut down conversations and settle beefs, and have helped to creating a police-like atmosphere in our spaces. If you wish to avoid prosecution I would advice to you comply with our language laws And corporate social media outlets like fedbook have created the perfect conditions for this liberal poison to fester and thrive. ♪ If I were you I'd take precaution ♪ Identity Politicians accumulate social capital, much like capitalist pigs accumulate wealth and thus create invisible hierarchies, Him and Gordon split up Oh... Poor Ches No, no, no, no, no, we're all on Gordon's side Sure where the people at the top can easily trash a comrade with a single status post or tweet, that will further unleash the wrath of their followers and send said person into oblivion without much accountability or process. While we struggle to rid society and ourselves of patriarchy, white supremacy, colonialism, capitalism etc, we must find new and better ways of confronting the contradictions within our communities without chastising and exiling every single motherfuckin person, who has ever transgressed a rule they didn’t know about, is not pure enough, or that hasn’t reached the 7th level of anarchism. He’s the one It’s problematic, y’know? Traitor! Tres Speaking of problematic language. When this show started 10 years ago and in the years that followed, I said some really stupid fuckin shit that hurt some comrades feelings. While my intentions were never to make homies feel shitty, my use of certain words or descriptors were due mainly to ignorance, and thanks to the patience of peeps who reached out to me, I was able to see their points and removed certain shitty verbiage from my vernacular without having to sacrifice my love of fuckin curse words and grotesque humor. So to those I may have offended, I’m really fuckin sorry. Cuatro Throughout the years I traveled the world screening my fuckin videos, and got to meet lot’s of good folks who were kind enough to offer me a couch, some dumpstered food, and a dirty sheet to project my propaganda. I’d like to say once again spank you very much. Cinco So… About Alex Jones Joking aside, and with this I’ll shut the fuck up, because honestly I’m sounding kinda preachy. Shut the fuck up! The extreme right media is kicking our fucking ass. In our quest for furthering our ideas, we’ve fallen prey to continually speaking to each other in a language few outside our bubble can understand. An anarchist is someone who believes that the burden of proof rests upon those who claim hierarchical privileges for themselves or others I take responsibility in participating in this, and honestly it’s pretty fuckin hard to avoid. But if we want to fuckin win, we have to stop acting like smug intellectual know-it-alls, and practice what we preach. To all y’all who harbour a burning desire to create radical media…. fuckin do it, and do it quick. But please attempt to make shit that’s accessible. Don’t make media that’s gonna score you brownie points with your crew. And by all means, strive for creating the highest quality content you can. specially when corporate fucks and racist scum like Alex Jones are cranking out slick ass shit. I’m setting fires everywhere! As regular fucking viewers of my show will know, I usually like to end each sedition with an interview, and over the past decade I’ve had the honor of chatting with dozens of radical peeps from across the world. Buuuuuuuuuuut since this is my last fucking show, I figured that I’d flip shit around, and take questions from you fuckers. So… in order to do so, last week I put a call out for all your most ass-burning questions that you always wanted to ask yours fucking truly. We ended up getting a shit-ton of great fucking responses… and my team of subMedia slaves had a hard time narrowing them down. Anyway… let’s get this fucking show on the road. Agitator… will you do the honors? AGITATOR: Do I have a fucking choice? STIM: Just fucking do it. AGITATOR: Hey Stim, how the fuck are you STIM: Oh fuck off already AGITATOR: Y’know... you really need to get more friends. OK… first question comes from Youtube commenter The Unapologetic Leftist, who asks “Why do you think pissy liberals are against antifa and against smashing the homes of Nazis?” STIM: Well that’s easy, Unapologetic… it’s because liberals are fucking cowards who don’t wanna rock the boat. Kinda like those so-called “Good Germans” who didn’t do anything to stop the rise of Hitler and his goose-stepping Gestapo homies, liberals don’t see nazis as a direct threat to their own well-being, so they’re unwilling to question deeply-ingrained myths, such as dogmatic non-violence, that they have been spoon-fed their entire lives by the state and capitalist media to keep them docile and subservient. At the end of the day, liberals don’t really believe very strongly in anything, which is why they find people with strong beliefs so fucking irrational. Especially if they’re willing to act on them. Their own values change constantly, depending on the prevailing winds of popular opinion... and whatever positions they hold on a particular issue are generally aimed at maintaining a smug feeling of moral superiority. That’s why I always hate on so-called “progressives”. It’s a completely fucking relative term… it’s basically like saying “I’m better than you” and using that to describe your political orientation. AGITATOR: Next question comes from youtube user Max Stirner, who asks “why do you think the alt-right has such a huge online presence?” STIM: So… I think the spread of the alt-right is based on a bunch of factors that are specific to our particular time and context. First of all, here in Turtle Island, the past few years has seen a big spike in resistance coming from traditionally marginalized groups… from Black, Brown and Indigenous peeps, to women, trans and non-gender conforming folks. And history has shown us that any time marginalized groups have begun to collectively challenge the oppressive status quo, those in the dominant group see this as a threat to their privileged social position, and organize to reinforce the systems of oppression that they’ve been used to benefitting from. In this case, it’s no surprise that the alt-right has brought together a toxic fucking mix of white nationalists, neo-nazis, and MRA-type misogynists…. not to mention the fact that it seems to be almost completely composed of white dudes. I also think that identity politics have really morphed into a crude type of liberalism for a large part of the left, and this is something that’s been really helped along by the whole echo-chamber effect created by fedbook. More and more peeps are starting to see any form of debate or disagreement with their own views and opinions to be an attack, or a violation of their safe space, or whatever. That type of orientation leaves itself pretty open to mockery from people who don’t share those views, and the alt-right has seized this opportunity with both fucking hands. Last, but not least…. I think it’s pretty fucking telling that this movement has taken shape over the Internet, and not in the streets. Lot's of peeps talk mad shit on the Internet that they would never say to a person’s face… just look at the fucking comments on my youtube videos. So... the fact that they’re safe behind their keyboards lets these fuckers be as extreme as they want without having to deal with the consequences that they would face if they were actually meeting and organizing IRL. It’s important that we never allow them to win control of the streets… or else we’re in for some dark fucking times. AGITATOR: But Stim… don’t you basically just talk mad shit on the Internet? I mean… you don’t even have a fucking body. STIM:  Next question! AGITATOR: The next question comes from twitter handle “Soleil from Astoria”, who wants to know what you thought about that last commenter. STIM: What the fuck? AGITATOR: Yeah…. their question is “what do you think about Max Stirner, Egoism and individualist anarchism.” STIM: For fuck’s sake Agitator… Max Stirner was…. Fuck it... nevermind. *AHEM* To answer your question, Soleil…I see Individualist anarchism as being sorta like masturbation. Which is to say… it’s a fun way to learn what turns your crank, and a great hobby to pass the time while you’re gangsta chillin by yourself, but not quite the same as the real thing... if you catch my drift. Putting the whole wanking analogy aside, I think Stirner and other individualists have made some important contributions to anarchist theory, and I agree that individual autonomy is a vital safeguard against the tyranny of the collective. Buuuuuuuuuuuuut at the same time, focusing solely on individual autonomy at the expense of collective struggle seems to me to be a huge fucking cop-out. I know that’s not what all egoists are about, but it seems to be a bit of a slippery slope. I just think there needs to be a healthy balance between realizing your own desires, and channelling your effort and sacrifice into something bigger than yourself. Plus I’ve known a couple of individualist anarchists who were complete fucking douche-nozzles…. so there’s that. AGITATOR: Next question is from twitter user Alex Berkmensch, who asks “do you think anarchists can be in solidarity with Israel.” STIM: I don’t think anarchists can be in solidarity with any state, let alone with a settler-colonial state like Isra-hell. Same goes with Klanada, or the United Snakes for that matter. That said, I’ve got Israeli comrades, and I do think that peeps can and should be in solidarity with Israelis… particularly those who are repressed by their own government for demonstrating solidarity with Palestinians. I do also think that while criticizing zionism isn’t necessarily anti-semitic if it’s done through an anti-colonial lens, that lots of leftists in this part of the world are pretty fucking comfortable criticizing the Israeli occupation of Palestine, and would benefit from spending a little more time looking in the mirror with regards to their own relationship with Indigenous peeps here in Turtle Island. AGITATOR: Next question comes from youtube user The Vegan Anarchist, who asks: “what do you think about Animal Liberation and Veganarchism? R u going Vegan? Can you give my anarchist channel The Vegan Anarchist a shout out?” STIM: Lots of peeps have asked me about this over the years. So… to answer your question, I’m not a vegan, and don’t plan on going vegan anytime soon. I guess maybe I haven’t found the right vegan taco recipe yet. I do have lots of comrades who are vegan, and I respect their reasons for doing so. Factory farming is fucking horrific, and I have serious respect for militant animal liberation activists who put shit on the line to jailbreak furry critters out of fur farms, and fuck up vivisection labs and shit like that. Buuuuuuuuuuut at the end of the day, if I’m being honest, I don’t think it’s realistic that a critical mass of peeps are going to go vegan, and that’s going to bring down the meat and dairy industries. It’s kind of like those peeps who pin their hopes on bringing down capitalism by having everyone putting their money into credit unions. Not gonna happen. I also think it’s important to respect the fact that hunting and fishing practices make up a vital part of many Indigenous peeps traditional way of life, and it’s fucked up to lecture them about that shit, because it’s really industrial capitalism and colonialism that’s fucked up human beings’ relationship to nature and the animal kingdom. So I guess my answer is that veganism is a respectable choice, but it’s not everyone’s choice… and as an anarchist I’m against forcing people into making particular lifestyle choices. Also… shout out to your youtube channel. W00p w00p. AGITATOR:  Next question comes from Jane Smith on fedbook, who asks “what do you think of Anonymous”... and also, Ash Fawkes on youtube, who asks “how much do you love AnonResistance?” STIM:  I think Anonymous and particularly AnonResistance are fucking crucial steps towards building a multi-faceted resistance movement that can adapt to and take advantage of the changing realities of the cyber era. I don’t agree with, or condone every action claimed by Anonymous, but that’s to be expected from a loosely structured, decentralized and, uhhh…. anonymous group like that. I hope that anarchists and other freedom-loving peeps with the necessary hacking skills keep pushing back at the sexist 4Chan Gamer-gate types who seem to make up the more reactionary elements within the group. We’re at a point in history where, more than ever, information is power… and so the fact that there’s an anarchist, or at least anarchist-sympathetic hacker group is so fucking crucial. The next few years I think we’re gonna see cyber-warfare become an even more important battlefront between states… And it’s parmount that the mothafuckin resistance has the ability to wage our own cyber-class-warfare. AGITATOR: Next… youtube user jugeoben asks “Have you heard of anarcho-primitivism? If so, what do you think of it?” Uhhhh… also, a whole bunch of peeps mentioned your politics seem to have changed over the years, and wanna know what you think about Derrick Jensen and Deep Green Resistance... uhhh…. since you did that movie... END:CIV STIM:  Yeah, yeah… I fucking get it. Well, jugeoben, to answer your question first… yes, I am familiar with anarcho-primitivism. Lots of peeps over the years have referred to me as an anarcho-primitivist, even though I’ve never used the label to describe myself. There’s generally not much space given for nuance on the green anarchist side of things. I think primitivism was useful for some of the critiques it made of industrial civilization, but I think the solutions it offers to those problems are utopian, to put it mildly. People are not going to stop using technology and return to some sort of ancestral nomadic way of life from back before the dawn of agriculture. I think that a lot of former primitivists have acknowledged as much.. and many have moved onto nihilism, which says a lot about where they were coming from to begin with. As for the shit about End:Civ… all I can say is that when I made the movie, Deep Green Resistance, as a movement, didn’t exist. I don’t agree with any of the shit that Derrick Jensen or other members of DGR wrote or said about trans folks… a person’s gender identity and expression is their own choice to make, and it’s fucked up to exclude trans people from gender-specific spaces. I do still agree with a lot of what was included in the film... Buuuuuuut in hindsight it was a mistake to focus it so heavily on the ideas of a single personality. As for the changes in my politics… part of that has been me changing my mind on a couple of things, but another big factor was the fact that a couple of years ago subMedia was infiltrated by an anarcho-commie named Heatscore, who’s been helping me produce the show. HEATSCORE: What you saying about me you primie fuck? STIM: So yeah… to sum up, subMedia is a collective made up of green and red anarchists, who put that sectarian shit aside to focus on our shared love of watching cops get lit on fire. Agitator - Seriously dude why are you fuckin quitting? Well Agitator, After some serious self reflection me and my subMedia slaves have decided to try something new. While this fuckin show has provided us with a venue to vent our frustrations, sling insults at politicians, edit riot porn to dope ass hip hop and interview some bad ass revolutionaries, we felt we could put our efforts into exciting popular education videos that are not so tied to the news cycle and therefore have a longer shelf life, films that are useful to peeps who want to organize social events, and pull homies away from the isolation of their computer screens, and into social spaces where they could meet others, converse and conspire together. So, while it breaks my fuckin heart to end this fuckin show, I’m pretty sure you’re gonna love what we have in store for y’all in 2017. But never fear, this floating eyes and mouth construct y’all know as the stimulator is not going away. I’ll pop in from time to time to big up the motherfuckin resistance with expletive laden videos and a brand new radical music podcast entitled Burning Cop Car, so watch for that. And with that said, that about does it for this final edition of it’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine. Never in our wildest dreams did we think that broke ass peeps would donate enough skrilla to enable us at sub.Media to produce anarchist videos full time. As we pull the plug on this fuckin show, we hope y’all don’t stop donating, as our anarchist video making machine will continue churning out propaganda for years to come. We want to thank all the slaves who kicked down donations to keep us going throughout all these years. It would take hours to read off the names of our supporters in this last fuckin show, so I’ll just say Spank You Very Fuckin Much from the bottom of my heart. Aaaaaand finally, I want to send a shout out to all the volunteers who helped out finding riot footage, and who translated the show into many different languages. Domo Arigato Stay tuned on February 2017 for our brand spanking new website that will live in our even shorter domain name sub.media I think I just about bored y’all to death, so be safe but stay dangerous, and share your tacos Hasta la pasta compañeras The Icecaps are melting ho ho ho ho ho ho! All the world is drowning ho ho ho ho ho ho! The icecaps are melting you still here? it’s over go home go
