The military's use of IQ tests during WWI to sort recruits for officer training is highlighted as the first large-scale implementation of the test. The hosts argue this sorting continues today through "AP tracks" and "gifted programs" that groom children for the Ivy League and the Boulet.

Parent Privilege and the "Trick Baby" Narrative of Neutralization
The concept of "parent privilege" is identified as a more accurate descriptor than racial privilege for those raised in stable, two-parent homes. A clip from the 1970s film "Trick Baby" describes how the elite "neutralize" smart individuals from the ghetto by bringing them into white society. Donald Trump is characterized as a WASP who failed the "uncouth" test, leading to his rejection by the establishment.

The Rhodes Scholarship, founded by Cecil Rhodes to promote British imperial unity and international diplomacy, is described as a launching platform for globalist leaders. Locke's mission was to foster international understanding through a liberal education.
