00:00:37.880 Rolling Stone magazine celebrates the burning of Notre Dame as an act of liberation.

00:00:43.800 Meanwhile, Library Journal condemns libraries as tools of white supremacy.

00:00:48.620 And anti-white Democrats only want to nominate a white guy for president.

00:00:52.940 We will analyze how the West lost its mind.

00:00:55.720 I'm Michael Knowles, and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:05.000 I hate to say I told you so.

00:01:07.520 No, I love to say I told you so.

00:01:08.980 And I told you so yesterday.

00:01:10.540 What would happen when we start talking about rebuilding Notre Dame?

00:01:13.840 We just don't have the intellectual and spiritual and moral and religious and cultural tools to be able to do it.

00:01:21.340 And Rolling Stone magazine proved this yesterday in one of the most egregious and outrageous articles I've read in a long time.

00:01:29.540 But it's actually a worthwhile article because it does accurately embody the problem that the West is facing right now.

00:01:36.460 We'll get to that in just one second.

00:01:37.680 But first, let's think about some peace of mind when it comes to being prepared with food in case of an emergency.

00:01:46.220 There are many different types of emergencies you could prepare for.

00:01:49.400 Everything as trivial as a power outage to wildfires, earthquakes, floods, job loss, all these sorts of things.

00:01:56.680 Wise Company takes an innovative approach in providing dependable, simple, and affordable freeze-dried food for emergency preparedness and outdoor use.

00:02:05.140 Wise Company meals are designed to protect your most valuable asset, your family.

00:02:10.540 When government resources are strained, it can be days if not weeks before you can get to fresh food and water.

00:02:16.280 You cannot rely on someone else.

00:02:17.900 You have to rely on yourself.

00:02:20.280 Don't be foolish.

00:02:21.360 You've got so much of value.

00:02:22.820 Your life, your family, your property, everything.

00:02:25.620 Don't just assume that everything is going to go hunky-dory for the whole rest of your life.

00:02:30.400 Make sure that you are prepared in the case of an emergency.

00:02:32.800 Not only is Wise Emergency Food great tasting, its quality is unmatched.

00:02:39.880 All their ingredients are chef-prepared internally by Wise Company.

00:02:42.860 So they're really, really high quality.

00:02:44.700 It's very easy.

00:02:47.600 It doesn't even need to be hot.

00:02:48.820 You take the contents of the pouch, pour them into the water.

00:02:51.080 You stir, cover.

00:02:51.860 That's it.

00:02:52.640 In 15 minutes, it is ready to go for your family, no matter what the situation.

00:02:57.280 There's no excuse for waiting until it's too late.

00:03:38.620 Can't beat that, can you?

00:03:40.980 You might have seen this going around Twitter.

00:03:43.100 This was making the rounds yesterday from Rolling Stone.

00:03:46.060 Rolling Stone put out an article that said,

00:03:48.380 How should France rebuild Notre Dame?

00:03:50.820 Much of the structure survived the blaze, but as rebuilding efforts move forward,

00:03:55.680 the country will be left with a big question.

00:03:58.560 What does the cathedral mean to 21st century France?

00:04:02.940 This is the question.

00:04:05.040 What are we rebuilding?

00:04:07.780 What country is rebuilding?

00:04:10.340 What is France?

00:04:11.580 When Notre Dame was built 800 years ago,

00:04:15.460 France was entirely animated by Christianity, by the church.

00:04:21.040 Eight centuries later, things have changed dramatically.

00:04:23.740 What would it be?

00:04:26.240 Rolling Stone wants to make sure that you don't miss the point that they're making.

00:04:30.880 They put it in really gross terms.

00:04:33.760 Quote,

00:04:34.020 Wow.

00:05:04.020 First of all, leave it to the American universities.

00:05:07.300 Leave it to Harvard.

00:05:08.460 This is the kind of person who is teaching your children.

00:05:11.360 The building was so overburdened with meaning that its burning feels like an act of liberation.

00:05:17.340 Imagine for just a second if the Al-Haram mosque in Mecca burned down,

00:05:22.300 or half of it burned down, or the roof collapsed.

00:05:25.360 Imagine that.

00:05:26.160 And then imagine Rolling Stone writing and saying,

00:05:30.640 You know, for many people, the burning down of that mosque,

00:05:34.260 which was so overburdened with meaning,

00:05:37.020 felt like an act of liberation.

00:05:39.780 I don't think they would say that, would they?

00:05:41.440 What does it even mean to be overburdened with meaning?

00:05:48.380 Actually, it does have a meaning.

00:05:49.820 It has a meaning in the long history of Western thought.

00:05:52.780 The meaning here is the central theme of Western modernity,

00:05:57.660 which is liberation,

00:05:59.560 or emancipation,

00:06:02.240 or whatever you want to call it.

00:06:03.980 Call it liberation.

00:06:05.040 I mean, this is the major theme of the West.

00:06:08.000 This is the dominant theme of liberalism.

00:06:10.900 Capital L liberalism.

00:06:12.620 Classical liberalism.

00:06:14.160 Left-wing liberalism.

00:06:15.600 Liberalism itself.

00:06:17.140 We sometimes forget,

00:06:18.220 because liberals hate freedom so much,

00:06:19.780 it seems in this modern time,

00:06:21.740 that liberalism is about freeing yourself.

00:06:25.200 It's about liberation.

00:06:27.640 Many times you'll hear conservative critics say,

00:06:30.300 liberalism contains the seeds of its own destruction.

00:06:33.880 So this kind of crazy, decadent, suicidal culture

00:06:37.260 that we're living in now

00:06:38.540 is the inevitable result of the ideas of liberalism.

00:06:43.500 When people talk about that,

00:06:44.960 this is what they're talking about.

00:06:47.580 This is what happens

00:06:48.620 at the radical extreme of liberation.

00:06:51.080 Because it begins,

00:06:52.260 especially in the modern era,

00:06:53.340 with liberation,

00:06:54.840 first from institutions,

00:06:56.580 then from the ideas themselves.

00:06:58.940 So it always begins with the institutions.

00:07:01.560 And you say,

00:07:02.300 well, I don't want to just be tied

00:07:04.200 to some silly, deeply flawed institution.

00:07:07.920 So I'm going to divorce myself from the institution.

00:07:10.140 Then I'm going to be able to live

00:07:13.800 in this pure realm of ideas.

00:07:15.520 But it doesn't really work out that way.

00:07:17.140 What happens is you divorce yourself

00:07:18.480 from the institution.

00:07:19.760 Then you divorce yourself from the ideas.

00:07:22.080 You see this most obviously in the church.

00:07:25.300 So beginning,

00:07:26.600 I mean,

00:07:26.820 this is a process that now has gone on

00:07:28.540 in our civilization for a thousand years,

00:07:31.400 certainly since the Protestant revolution.

00:07:33.220 You see a divorce from the church,

00:07:35.040 then a divorce from religion itself.

00:07:37.440 So even today,

00:07:38.700 plenty of people who grow up

00:07:40.020 and go into their local church

00:07:41.640 with their families,

00:07:42.780 grow up every week,

00:07:43.940 maybe they go to Bible study or something.

00:07:46.120 What you see on the trend lines

00:07:47.880 is those people

00:07:48.860 who then leave the church,

00:07:51.160 they'll say,

00:07:51.660 well, I'm spiritual,

00:07:53.440 but I'm not religious.

00:07:54.780 Because the church,

00:07:55.640 whatever church you belong to,

00:07:56.800 the Baptist church,

00:07:57.680 the Methodist church,

00:07:58.520 the Anglican church,

00:07:59.400 Catholic church,

00:08:00.180 whatever church you belong to,

00:08:02.120 you can always say

00:08:03.160 it's a deeply flawed institution.

00:08:05.320 Obviously,

00:08:05.900 the Catholic church

00:08:06.540 is a deeply flawed institution.

00:08:08.380 Hilaire Belloc,

00:08:09.080 one of the most famous

00:08:09.980 Catholic writers ever,

00:08:11.460 said that the proof

00:08:12.700 of the divinity

00:08:13.480 of the Catholic church

00:08:14.520 is the fact

00:08:15.520 that it still exists

00:08:16.540 because any merely human institution

00:08:18.820 that was conducted

00:08:19.760 with such knavish imbecility

00:08:21.520 would certainly

00:08:22.820 not have survived a fortnight.

00:08:24.860 Obviously,

00:08:25.420 you can point to

00:08:26.040 all of these other

00:08:26.840 religious institutions as well.

00:08:28.740 You can point to the problems

00:08:29.940 in the Methodist church

00:08:30.740 or the Baptist church

00:08:31.560 or the Evangelical church

00:08:32.720 or whatever.

00:08:33.800 So you say,

00:08:34.260 okay,

00:08:34.380 I want to leave

00:08:35.620 this deeply flawed institution

00:08:37.420 and that way

00:08:38.820 I'll have a purer sense

00:08:40.300 of religion.

00:08:41.500 I've liberated myself

00:08:42.720 so now I'm just

00:08:43.540 in the realm of ideas.

00:08:45.800 But spiritual

00:08:47.380 but not religious

00:08:48.120 or religious

00:08:49.080 but not organized religious

00:08:50.380 or eventually

00:08:51.200 you just divorce yourself

00:08:53.300 from the ideas as well.

00:08:54.760 Think about what's happened

00:08:55.560 to national institutions.

00:08:56.840 First,

00:08:57.120 you liberate yourself

00:08:57.920 from national institutions,

00:08:59.920 civic institutions,

00:09:01.220 then you divorce yourself

00:09:02.540 from the nation itself.

00:09:03.920 We've seen our commitment

00:09:06.400 to religious institutions

00:09:08.240 decline dramatically

00:09:09.720 over the past 40 years.

00:09:11.260 What happened?

00:09:11.920 Trailed it by about

00:09:12.560 10 or 20 years?

00:09:13.700 People's declining

00:09:14.580 in religiosity itself.

00:09:16.180 As people pull away

00:09:17.180 from the Boy Scouts

00:09:18.080 and the Lions Club

00:09:18.900 and other civic institutions,

00:09:20.460 what have we seen?

00:09:21.220 Trailing it by

00:09:21.920 a couple decades

00:09:22.880 is less of an identity

00:09:25.420 with the nation itself.

00:09:27.700 How about familial institutions?

00:09:29.840 As we liberate ourselves

00:09:31.040 from the institutions

00:09:32.100 of the family,

00:09:32.920 what happens?

00:09:33.660 We isolate ourselves

00:09:34.980 from family ties themselves.

00:09:37.560 We have a society

00:09:38.320 that has never been

00:09:39.360 more lonely,

00:09:40.380 never been more isolated.

00:09:42.200 This happens.

00:09:43.440 This is what

00:09:44.220 Edmund Burke,

00:09:45.120 the founder of

00:09:46.160 modern conservative thought,

00:09:48.380 this is what he saw

00:09:49.920 as a perverse liberation.

00:09:52.580 In one of his most famous

00:09:54.020 excerpts from

00:09:55.680 Reflections on the Revolution

00:09:56.800 in France,

00:09:57.420 he wrote,

00:09:58.200 The age of chivalry is gone,

00:10:00.960 that of sophisters,

00:10:02.080 economists,

00:10:02.680 and calculators

00:10:03.440 has succeeded,

00:10:04.340 and the glory of Europe

00:10:05.320 is extinguished forever.

00:10:06.940 Never, never more

00:10:07.900 shall we behold

00:10:09.200 the generous loyalty

00:10:10.880 to rank and sex,

00:10:13.060 that proud submission,

00:10:14.920 that dignified obedience,

00:10:17.260 that subordination

00:10:18.300 of the heart

00:10:19.020 which kept alive

00:10:20.400 even in servitude itself,

00:10:23.580 the spirit

00:10:24.300 of an exalted freedom.

00:10:26.800 The unbought grace of life,

00:10:29.100 the cheap defense of nations,

00:10:30.800 the nurse of manly sentiment,

00:10:32.620 and heroic enterprise

00:10:34.120 is gone.

00:10:34.860 This is a very hard statement

00:10:38.340 for a modern western person

00:10:40.700 to hear.

00:10:41.760 For a classical liberal

00:10:42.920 or a modern liberal

00:10:43.880 or a leftist liberal

00:10:44.780 or whatever,

00:10:45.680 to hear that

00:10:46.460 dignified obedience,

00:10:49.480 that proud submission,

00:10:51.980 that subordination

00:10:53.000 of the heart

00:10:53.660 which kept alive

00:10:54.520 even in servitude itself

00:10:56.340 and exalted freedom.

00:10:58.300 What Burke is addressing here

00:10:59.840 is that you can't just

00:11:01.160 liberate yourself

00:11:02.220 forever.

00:11:04.420 You can't just keep

00:11:05.900 liberating and liberating

00:11:06.980 and liberating.

00:11:07.660 Ultimately,

00:11:08.220 you'll liberate yourself

00:11:09.080 from all meaning.

00:11:10.420 You'll liberate yourself

00:11:11.320 from everything that matters.

00:11:13.120 You'll liberate yourself

00:11:13.980 from yourself.

00:11:16.060 There is this

00:11:17.040 shallow liberty,

00:11:18.580 this shallow freedom,

00:11:19.720 and then there is

00:11:20.400 an exalted freedom

00:11:21.500 which actually requires

00:11:23.200 some subservience.

00:11:24.960 It actually requires

00:11:26.100 some obedience.

00:11:27.940 We're in Holy Week now

00:11:29.520 and Christ,

00:11:31.780 who comes to free people

00:11:33.580 from sin,

00:11:34.640 free us from our own damnation,

00:11:37.340 how does he come?

00:11:38.060 Does he come as a guy

00:11:38.840 who's totally liberated,

00:11:40.520 who's walking around

00:11:41.720 like a modern

00:11:42.400 20th century

00:11:43.380 liberated hippie guy?

00:11:45.400 No.

00:11:46.000 He comes as a servant.

00:11:47.660 He is serving.

00:11:48.440 He is submitting

00:11:49.320 to the will of his father.

00:11:51.180 He's serving others.

00:11:53.320 So what is the ultimate liberation?

00:11:55.520 Rolling Stone tells us.

00:11:56.520 But first,

00:11:58.120 before we get to

00:11:58.800 what Rolling Stone

00:11:59.400 is telling us,

00:12:00.920 let's talk about ZipRecruiter.

00:12:02.760 ZipRecruiter is

00:12:04.280 the best way

00:12:06.240 to find people

00:12:07.600 for a job.

00:12:10.300 ZipRecruiter sends

00:12:11.100 your job to over 100

00:12:12.120 of the web's

00:12:12.700 leading job boards.

00:12:13.600 They don't just stop there

00:12:14.480 with their powerful

00:12:15.060 matching technology.

00:12:16.300 ZipRecruiter scans

00:12:17.040 thousands of resumes

00:12:17.860 to find people

00:12:18.780 with the right experience

00:12:19.600 and invites them

00:12:20.280 to apply to your job.

00:12:21.920 As applications come in,

00:12:23.400 ZipRecruiter analyzes

00:12:24.560 each one

00:12:25.240 and spotlights

00:12:26.120 the top candidates

00:12:26.980 so you never

00:12:28.260 miss a great match.

00:12:29.900 I really benefited

00:12:30.880 from the Daily Wire

00:12:32.020 not using ZipRecruiter

00:12:33.460 when I was hired.

00:12:34.680 Why is this?

00:12:35.180 Because my whole resume

00:12:36.440 was that I didn't

00:12:37.180 write a book.

00:12:38.160 I had just not written

00:13:48.880 the ultimate liberation?

00:13:50.780 Rolling Stone tells us

00:13:52.160 the ultimate liberation

00:13:54.160 here is liberation

00:13:55.500 from meaning.

00:13:56.860 They write this here.

00:13:57.780 They say

00:13:58.200 that the church,

00:14:01.340 the Cathedral of Notre Dame

00:14:02.520 was overburdened

00:14:04.740 with meaning.

00:14:06.940 What does it mean

00:14:07.800 to be overburdened

00:14:08.780 with meaning?

00:14:09.360 I love meaning.

00:14:10.240 When you get a gift,

00:14:11.000 do you really care

00:14:11.860 about the material gift itself?

00:14:13.420 No.

00:14:13.700 You always say

00:14:14.200 it's the thought

00:14:14.960 that counts.

00:14:15.820 What we care about

00:14:16.620 is the meaning,

00:14:17.460 is the significance.

00:14:18.480 If we don't care

00:14:19.300 about meaning,

00:14:19.900 then everything

00:14:20.900 is just insignificant

00:14:22.180 matter.

00:14:23.700 Everything is just flesh.

00:14:24.900 Everything is just stuff.

00:14:26.260 Everything is senseless.

00:14:28.440 Meaning is what counts.

00:14:30.340 So the ultimate liberation

00:14:31.700 here

00:14:32.000 is the liberation

00:14:33.480 from meaning.

00:14:35.860 You can think about

00:14:36.420 sexual liberation.

00:14:37.460 I guess that's the

00:14:38.140 most recent,

00:14:39.360 most revolutionary one.

00:14:40.660 Sexual liberation

00:14:41.460 is when you separate

00:14:42.980 sex from meaning.

00:14:44.280 And this is a great example

00:14:46.420 because meaningful sex

00:14:48.060 carries transcendent qualities.

00:14:51.280 Meaningful sex

00:14:52.300 is the two souls

00:14:54.920 coming together,

00:14:55.720 being united,

00:14:56.780 becoming one flesh,

00:14:57.900 becoming one spirit,

00:14:59.440 is all of this stuff.

00:15:00.960 And meaningless sex

00:15:02.340 is a bunch of filthy people

00:15:04.620 doing something shameful.

00:15:05.580 It's the same physical act,

00:15:09.940 but in one of them

00:15:11.160 you have this transcendent,

00:15:12.640 wonderful,

00:15:13.400 joyful,

00:15:14.400 loving feeling.

00:15:15.400 And in the other one

00:15:16.280 you take a walk of shame

00:15:17.420 in the morning

00:15:17.880 and you say,

00:15:18.500 why did I have that extra drink?

00:15:20.000 What was I thinking?

00:15:21.780 That's what meaning does.

00:15:23.980 Liberation from meaning

00:15:25.480 ultimately is destruction.

00:15:28.340 It has to be destruction.

00:15:29.600 It's burning it all

00:15:30.520 to the ground.

00:15:32.960 You can't,

00:15:33.760 you don't liberate yourself

00:15:35.060 from meaning

00:15:35.680 by adding meaning.

00:15:38.160 You can't do that.

00:15:39.780 And when we build things,

00:15:40.940 we add meaning.

00:15:42.140 We develop.

00:15:44.060 When you take that meaning away,

00:15:45.700 it just turns to rubble.

00:15:46.680 It turns to ash.

00:15:48.140 You actually see this

00:15:49.440 not just in the ashes

00:15:50.520 of the cathedral

00:15:51.160 at Notre Dame.

00:15:52.460 You see this

00:15:53.320 in the transgender

00:15:54.620 ideological movement.

00:15:57.000 Obviously I've been thinking

00:15:57.960 about this a lot

00:15:58.640 the last few days.

00:15:59.880 After there was a near riot

00:16:02.140 at the University of Missouri,

00:16:03.500 Kansas City

00:16:04.120 because I made the statement

00:16:05.320 that men are not women.

00:16:07.420 I've thought,

00:16:08.140 why is this issue?

00:16:10.840 Why is this transgender movement

00:16:13.080 dominating the national conversation?

00:16:15.380 Why was I attacked

00:16:16.500 by some weirdo

00:16:17.300 with a squirt gun

00:16:18.080 full of chemicals

00:16:18.660 for saying that men

00:16:20.220 are not women?

00:16:21.380 By all accounts,

00:16:22.760 the number of people

00:16:23.420 who are confused

00:16:24.060 about their gender

00:16:24.820 is about 0.2

00:16:26.480 to 0.4%

00:16:28.040 of the population.

00:16:28.820 There are some new

00:16:30.100 recent estimates

00:16:31.080 that put this number

00:16:32.120 much, much higher

00:16:33.140 that will put it at

00:16:33.940 double basically

00:16:36.200 at 0.6%

00:16:37.420 of the population.

00:16:38.480 Even if that is the case,

00:16:40.440 we're talking about

00:16:42.720 this rare psychological disorder

00:16:44.620 that does not affect

00:16:46.640 99.4%

00:16:48.880 of the population.

00:16:49.760 99.4%

00:16:51.500 of the population,

00:16:52.640 at least,

00:16:53.580 maybe 99.8%

00:16:55.140 of the population,

00:16:56.240 does not have

00:16:56.940 this rare condition

00:16:57.780 and yet it is

00:16:59.080 dominating all

00:17:00.040 political discourse,

00:17:01.360 social discourse,

00:17:02.480 bathrooms,

00:17:03.400 pronouns,

00:17:04.200 all this stuff.

00:17:05.020 Why?

00:17:05.540 What is it about?

00:17:07.060 Is it just because

00:17:08.040 left-wingers have

00:17:08.940 completely gone insane

00:17:10.100 and focused on this

00:17:11.180 one little trivial

00:17:12.260 myopic topic?

00:17:13.460 No.

00:17:14.260 It's because this is

00:17:15.340 the theme

00:17:15.940 of liberation.

00:17:17.520 This is the theme

00:17:18.640 that defines

00:17:19.720 Western modernity.

00:17:22.220 Liberating yourself

00:17:23.160 from your own nature.

00:17:26.520 Liberating yourself

00:17:27.480 from the basic fact

00:17:29.720 of your nature,

00:17:30.580 which is sex.

00:17:32.220 That's how we get

00:17:32.820 our nature in the first place.

00:17:34.240 Birds do it,

00:17:34.820 bees do it,

00:17:35.580 even sentimental trees do it.

00:17:37.420 It is from our sexual nature

00:17:39.260 that we're born,

00:17:40.880 that we're begotten

00:17:42.160 in the first place.

00:17:44.300 And as all those

00:17:45.380 silly scientific studies

00:17:46.600 show,

00:17:47.160 men then think about

00:17:48.200 sex every,

00:17:48.880 what,

00:17:49.080 0.2 seconds or something?

00:17:50.480 I don't know,

00:17:50.740 whatever they say it is.

00:17:53.400 It's not that we're

00:17:54.980 just focusing on

00:17:55.720 some little frivolous

00:17:56.580 thing.

00:17:57.520 It's that the impulses

00:17:59.320 of liberalism

00:18:00.320 are naturally pushing

00:18:01.980 us toward this madness.

00:18:05.020 This is not just about

00:18:06.040 some small percentage

00:18:07.040 of people who have

00:18:07.880 this condition.

00:18:08.920 It's about ultimate

00:18:10.100 liberation from

00:18:11.620 our nature.

00:18:12.780 You know,

00:18:13.040 the communists

00:18:13.720 and the socialists

00:18:14.560 did this all the time.

00:18:15.560 They say,

00:18:15.860 we're going to remake

00:18:17.080 human nature.

00:18:18.420 Human nature is

00:18:19.420 greedy and selfish

00:18:21.420 and broken

00:18:22.280 and fallen

00:18:22.920 and sinful.

00:18:23.820 Oh,

00:18:23.940 it doesn't need to be though.

00:18:25.140 Well,

00:18:25.300 no,

00:18:25.480 that's okay.

00:18:25.920 We'll just fix it.

00:18:27.200 This was what the radicalism

00:18:28.440 of the French Revolution did.

00:18:31.020 And that's,

00:18:31.760 that's what this new

00:18:32.640 gender ideology

00:18:33.420 is trying to do as well.

00:18:34.740 There was an article

00:18:35.740 in Scientific American

00:18:37.080 that came out,

00:18:38.020 I think just today,

00:18:39.180 it was either came out

00:18:39.720 yesterday or this morning,

00:18:40.580 that is now advocating

00:18:42.740 for genderless pronouns.

00:18:45.740 They want to use

00:18:47.520 the singular they.

00:18:49.640 So it,

00:18:50.400 so it would be like,

00:18:51.980 they is really hungry.

00:18:55.600 Michael is really hungry.

00:18:56.900 They is really hungry.

00:18:57.940 Maybe it's,

00:18:58.320 they are really hungry.

00:18:59.400 Maybe they conjugate the verb

00:19:00.500 as though it's plural too,

00:19:01.540 even though it's referring

00:19:02.280 to a singular.

00:19:03.220 It's very confusing.

00:19:04.420 The first question,

00:19:05.360 of course,

00:19:05.620 is why does Scientific American

00:19:08.420 have an opinion

00:19:09.280 about pronouns at all?

00:19:11.180 Why on earth

00:19:12.320 does Scientific American

00:19:14.180 think that they can tell me

00:19:15.720 how to destroy

00:19:16.560 the English language?

00:19:18.140 It's not

00:19:18.560 the literary American.

00:19:20.800 It's not the grammatical American.

00:19:22.120 It's the Scientific American.

00:19:23.460 Why are they weighing in

00:19:24.280 on this aspect of culture?

00:19:25.860 It's because,

00:19:26.820 first of all,

00:19:27.360 the mainstream media broadly

00:19:28.640 all have this leftward push

00:19:30.720 and because this is

00:19:32.060 what's coming out of

00:19:32.960 the nature of the West.

00:19:34.420 The nature of modernity.

00:19:36.980 When we think of

00:19:37.900 the modern era,

00:19:38.780 what do we think of?

00:19:39.500 We first think of science.

00:19:41.840 We think of Western science

00:19:43.300 exploding in the,

00:19:45.860 I don't know,

00:19:46.420 16th or 17th centuries.

00:19:48.160 Obviously,

00:19:48.580 there were many

00:19:48.980 scientific advancements

00:19:49.880 before that,

00:19:50.740 but modern people

00:19:51.480 in the West

00:19:51.840 don't want to admit it.

00:19:53.660 But that's what we,

00:19:54.280 we think of science

00:19:55.220 and along with science,

00:19:56.480 we have this theme

00:19:57.400 of liberation.

00:19:58.520 So that's the first question.

00:19:59.540 Why does Scientific American

00:20:00.900 have an opinion

00:20:01.420 on pronouns at all?

00:20:02.520 The second question

00:20:03.560 has even greater irony,

00:20:05.820 which is,

00:20:07.660 why is Scientific American

00:20:09.440 accepting a completely

00:20:11.280 unscientific premise?

00:20:14.060 The premise here

00:20:15.640 of the pronouns

00:20:16.940 is that

00:20:18.060 men are not necessarily men

00:20:21.420 and women are not

00:20:22.500 necessarily women

00:20:23.480 and there aren't necessarily

00:20:25.320 only two biological sexes.

00:20:27.520 I don't know,

00:20:28.120 maybe there are 20 or 30

00:20:29.640 or 56 genders

00:20:31.680 like Facebook says.

00:20:33.760 The premise here

00:20:35.000 is

00:20:35.420 completely unscientific.

00:20:39.860 But the premises

00:20:40.900 are the key.

00:20:42.820 The premises

00:20:43.420 actually are the key

00:20:44.580 because

00:20:45.060 ultimately,

00:20:47.060 what are we trying

00:20:47.640 to liberate ourselves from?

00:20:49.040 When we're thinking about it,

00:20:50.480 about logic,

00:20:51.340 when we're thinking

00:20:51.680 about arguments,

00:20:52.780 we're trying to separate

00:20:54.080 ourselves from premises.

00:20:55.920 This is the kind of

00:20:56.660 now cliche political line.

00:20:58.120 They'll say,

00:20:58.860 if you don't stand

00:20:59.540 for something,

00:21:00.380 you'll fall for anything.

00:21:03.160 That sums it up.

00:21:04.300 That actually does sum it up.

00:21:05.680 You have to begin

00:21:06.740 any train of thought

00:21:08.300 with premises.

00:21:11.180 Nothing from nothing

00:21:12.000 leaves nothing,

00:21:12.760 to quote the great philosopher,

00:21:14.800 what's that,

00:21:15.260 oh,

00:21:15.420 what's that guy's name?

00:21:16.540 Billy,

00:21:16.940 Billy Preston,

00:21:18.020 one of the great

00:21:18.940 political thinkers

00:21:19.820 of 1970s rock music.

00:21:22.340 Nothing from nothing

00:21:23.200 leaves nothing.

00:21:24.020 You have to begin

00:21:24.960 with premises.

00:21:25.640 And because we're so obsessed

00:21:27.920 in the West

00:21:28.640 with progress,

00:21:30.080 we've forgotten

00:21:30.820 that all trains of thought

00:21:32.460 require premises.

00:21:33.900 All logic,

00:21:34.980 all argumentation

00:21:35.960 is based on certain

00:21:37.260 fundamental axioms

00:21:38.720 that you can't prove.

00:21:41.440 It's based on certain

00:21:42.520 fundamental premises,

00:21:44.260 fundamental principles

00:21:45.220 that you just can't prove.

00:21:47.980 You can't begin

00:21:49.520 with nothing

00:21:50.280 and get something.

00:21:51.700 You can't,

00:21:52.600 we like to think

00:21:53.380 that we can do that.

00:21:53.980 We like to think

00:21:54.620 that we can get

00:21:55.080 all of this creation,

00:21:56.340 all of this sense

00:21:57.140 and logic and meaning

00:21:58.040 and matter

00:21:58.460 and all this stuff

00:21:59.160 without a creator.

00:22:00.620 We have creation,

00:22:01.820 all of which is contingent,

00:22:03.480 but we think

00:22:04.620 we can get there

00:22:05.360 without an unmoved mover,

00:22:08.400 a creator.

00:22:09.800 We think that

00:22:11.260 we can spin,

00:22:15.180 if we spin something

00:22:16.300 out of nothing,

00:22:17.580 that will be

00:22:18.340 the pure idea.

00:22:19.980 This is the suicidal

00:22:21.220 idea of the West.

00:22:22.120 Arguments and beliefs

00:22:24.760 begin with first principles.

00:22:27.300 If you don't assume

00:22:28.180 the first principles,

00:22:29.240 you will eat

00:22:30.040 your own society.

00:22:31.040 You will absolutely

00:22:31.840 destroy it.

00:22:33.020 You get nothing.

00:22:34.260 And we are uncomfortable

00:22:35.580 with our premises.

00:22:37.980 We are now uncomfortable

00:22:39.140 with the fact

00:22:39.760 that we have premises.

00:22:41.080 So what the scientific

00:22:41.860 American thinks here

00:22:43.040 is they're thinking,

00:22:44.680 well, listen,

00:22:45.880 we want to take away

00:22:47.020 all bias,

00:22:48.000 all prejudice,

00:22:48.900 all assumptions,

00:22:51.660 all questions of faith.

00:22:53.140 And so we will apply

00:22:55.720 this even to

00:22:57.080 biological sex.

00:22:58.560 We will apply this

00:22:59.540 even to

00:23:00.700 questions of nature.

00:23:03.200 And so

00:23:04.000 instead of he or she

00:23:05.660 or him or her,

00:23:06.800 we'll get rid of that.

00:23:07.800 That might be prejudicial.

00:23:08.860 That might be biased.

00:23:10.040 We'll just have

00:23:11.080 they.

00:23:12.960 That seems less biased.

00:23:14.580 That seems less prejudicial.

00:23:15.820 That seems to make

00:23:16.420 fewer assumptions.

00:23:18.020 Except

00:23:18.480 it's not true.

00:23:19.780 They get one thing

00:23:20.760 fundamentally wrong,

00:23:21.720 which we will talk about

00:23:22.500 in a second.

00:23:22.980 But first,

00:23:24.800 look at my

00:23:25.880 beautiful

00:23:26.920 soft face.

00:23:29.000 Look how good I feel.

00:23:30.300 Look at how nice I shave.

00:23:31.560 This is because

00:23:32.360 of Dollar Shave Club.

00:23:33.380 They have everything

00:23:33.880 that I need

00:23:34.340 to look, feel,

00:23:35.280 and smell my best.

00:23:36.660 What I love even more

00:23:37.500 than that is that

00:23:38.420 I never have to go

00:23:39.180 to the store.

00:23:39.960 In the olden days

00:23:41.040 before Dollar Shave Club,

00:23:42.540 I often didn't go

00:23:43.700 to the store anyway,

00:23:44.760 so I'd use the same

00:23:45.660 rusted old razor.

00:23:46.740 I'd be giving myself

00:23:47.400 tetanus every time

00:23:48.220 I got out of the shower.

00:23:49.520 This is not a good thing

00:23:50.740 because I was too lazy

00:23:51.560 to walk down the aisle.

00:23:52.600 I don't want to have

00:23:53.300 to go somewhere,

00:23:54.040 drive,

00:23:54.560 but no,

00:23:54.960 nobody thinks about that.

00:23:56.540 Dollar Shave Club

00:23:57.080 has you covered

00:23:57.600 from head to toe

00:23:58.280 for your hair,

00:23:58.900 your skin,

00:23:59.680 your face.

00:24:00.200 You name it,

00:24:00.820 they have it.

00:24:01.600 They also have a program

00:24:02.500 where they will just

00:24:03.700 automatically keep you

00:24:04.980 stocked up on the

00:24:05.560 products you use,

00:24:06.340 and I love their products.

00:24:07.980 I love all their stuff.

00:24:08.980 I started with them

00:24:09.640 just for the razors

00:24:10.460 because they do have

00:24:11.180 the best razor

00:24:11.760 I've ever used,

00:24:12.860 but they have everything.

00:24:14.880 They have Dollar Shave Club

00:24:16.420 toothpaste.

00:24:16.820 It's fabulous.

00:24:18.200 I take it with me

00:24:18.940 on the road.

00:24:19.780 It's great because

00:24:20.420 it gets automatically

00:24:21.480 sent to you

00:24:22.120 so you don't end up

00:24:22.920 like me where you're

00:24:23.620 squeezing the last

00:24:24.480 little dregs out of

00:24:25.460 the thing for three months.

00:24:26.700 No,

00:24:27.160 you'll get it new,

00:24:28.020 act like an adult,

00:24:28.920 you'll feel great.

00:24:29.960 Right now,

00:24:30.460 they've got a bunch

00:24:30.880 of starter sets

00:24:31.500 you can try for just

00:24:32.180 $5,

00:24:33.080 like their oral care kit.

00:24:34.860 After that,

00:24:35.320 the restock box

00:24:36.080 ships regular size products

00:24:37.420 at regular price.

00:24:38.800 So what are you waiting for?

00:24:40.260 Get your starter set

00:24:41.280 for just $5 right now.

00:24:46.000 C-O-V-F-E-F-E.

00:24:47.900 That is dollarshaveclub.com

00:24:50.180 slash covfefe,

00:24:51.480 C-O-V-F-E-F-E.

00:24:56.320 Now, ladies don't really

00:24:57.640 need to worry about

00:24:58.320 shaving their face,

00:24:59.080 generally speaking.

00:25:00.000 This is a fact of nature.

00:25:01.760 What the scientific

00:25:02.680 American wants to do

00:25:03.760 is reject

00:25:04.880 scientific premises.

00:25:05.960 So they think,

00:25:07.160 they think that they,

00:25:09.920 the they singular pronoun

00:25:11.740 is totally inclusive.

00:25:13.880 It's totally unbiased.

00:25:15.740 It's totally unprejudicial.

00:25:18.160 Actually,

00:25:19.220 it's just a different premise.

00:25:21.480 It's just a different prejudice.

00:25:23.340 It's just a different

00:25:24.400 leap of faith.

00:25:27.480 To say that sex is meaningless,

00:25:30.140 that there isn't really

00:25:31.140 no biological sex,

00:25:32.800 that sex can change

00:25:33.800 and it's mutable,

00:25:34.500 that's just a different premise.

00:25:35.960 And one that's

00:25:39.180 really difficult to stomach.

00:25:40.980 I mean,

00:25:41.160 this is why people

00:25:42.420 have never arrived

00:25:43.740 at this idea.

00:25:44.360 That's why we've only

00:25:45.380 started thinking this

00:25:46.180 for the last five seconds or so.

00:25:49.100 What scientific American

00:25:50.280 is trying to escape,

00:25:51.340 to liberate themselves

00:25:52.300 from this overburden

00:25:53.660 of meaning,

00:25:54.560 all they're doing

00:25:55.600 is assuming something new.

00:25:57.480 And they'll get sick

00:25:58.000 of this one.

00:25:58.640 They'll get rid of

00:25:59.200 the singular they,

00:25:59.980 they'll move on

00:26:00.500 to something else.

00:26:01.480 The issue here

00:26:02.780 is that we are demanding

00:26:04.320 to be everything

00:26:05.580 to everybody

00:26:06.940 and you can't be.

00:26:10.540 We will explain

00:26:11.440 what this means

00:26:11.960 for the West

00:26:12.760 in just a second.

00:26:13.500 But first,

00:26:14.100 got to say goodbye

00:26:14.540 to Facebook and YouTube.

00:26:15.660 Go over to dailywire.com.

00:26:17.400 Ten bucks a month,

00:26:18.120 one hundred dollars

00:26:18.680 for an annual membership.

00:26:19.940 You get me.

00:26:20.860 You get the Andrew Klavan show.

00:26:22.200 You get the Ben Shapiro show.

00:26:23.580 You get to ask questions

00:26:24.500 in the mailbag.

00:26:25.240 You get the Matt Walsh show.

00:26:26.520 By the way,

00:26:26.900 mailbag's coming up tomorrow,

00:26:27.900 so make sure to get

00:26:28.480 your questions in.

00:26:29.180 You get to ask questions

00:26:30.540 backstage.

00:26:31.220 You get another kingdom.

00:26:32.380 You get all this stuff

00:26:33.580 and you get

00:26:34.900 something much,

00:26:36.560 much better

00:26:37.000 than this plain

00:26:38.500 white coffee cup.

00:26:39.840 I'm on the road,

00:26:40.540 so I don't have

00:26:41.260 my Leftist Tears Tumblr.

00:26:42.940 Last night,

00:26:43.660 I was with Drew Klavan

00:26:44.880 at Texas A&M,

00:26:46.480 which is, I think,

00:26:47.280 the most conservative

00:26:48.040 university on the face

00:26:49.200 of the earth.

00:26:49.740 So I didn't need

00:26:50.620 my Leftist Tears Tumblr.

00:26:51.920 Luckily, I survived.

00:26:53.040 That's how I'm able

00:26:53.840 to broadcast to you today.

00:26:56.100 I won't always be so lucky.

00:26:57.440 You certainly won't

00:26:58.140 always be so lucky.

00:26:58.980 Get the Leftist Tears Tumblr.

00:27:00.260 It's the only way

00:27:01.320 to survive the deluge

00:27:02.380 that is coming.

00:27:03.280 Go to dailywire.com.

00:27:04.360 We will be right back.

00:27:16.700 This is what we're doing now.

00:27:18.300 We're demanding to be

00:27:19.540 everything to everybody.

00:27:21.680 That's all we want.

00:27:24.360 We don't want to offend anybody.

00:27:26.600 This is why everyone

00:27:27.400 is so timid now

00:27:28.340 in modern American culture.

00:27:30.360 They say,

00:27:30.520 well, and I just,

00:27:31.600 I feel like.

00:27:33.000 I don't want to offend you.

00:27:34.160 I don't want to state

00:27:34.840 an opinion or a fact.

00:27:36.340 I won't even say I think.

00:27:37.600 I won't even say I believe.

00:27:39.080 I'll just say I feel like.

00:27:41.800 I now,

00:27:42.280 when I hang out

00:27:42.780 with my left-wing friends,

00:27:44.060 I notice this.

00:27:45.760 They never disagree

00:27:46.860 with each other.

00:27:48.520 I mean, they do, obviously.

00:27:49.940 People have disagreements.

00:27:51.380 They have different points of view.

00:27:52.380 But they'll never openly

00:27:53.540 disagree with one another.

00:27:55.020 They'll say,

00:27:55.460 yeah, yeah,

00:27:56.280 no, that's true.

00:27:57.620 That's true.

00:27:58.240 Some guy says,

00:27:59.740 yeah, you know,

00:28:00.180 I think that the moon

00:28:01.500 is made of green cheese.

00:28:02.880 You say, yeah.

00:28:03.840 Yeah, no, I see that.

00:28:05.320 I see that.

00:28:05.840 That's true.

00:28:06.400 Yeah, but also maybe

00:28:09.920 it's made of rock.

00:28:14.120 You know, but your opinion

00:28:15.500 is true too

00:28:16.340 because you can't be wrong

00:28:18.540 because it's cool.

00:28:20.840 It's all good.

00:28:21.840 It's all the same.

00:28:22.660 It's all right.

00:28:23.840 It's all true.

00:28:24.700 This is why universities

00:28:25.700 now have offices

00:28:26.700 of diversity and inclusion.

00:28:29.340 How Orwellian does that sound?

00:28:30.700 If you told a guy,

00:28:31.620 if you took a time machine

00:28:32.440 back to the way,

00:28:33.120 way back days

00:28:33.820 of like seven years ago

00:28:35.600 and you said

00:28:36.400 that a university

00:28:37.060 would have an office

00:28:37.800 of diversity and inclusion,

00:28:39.760 they would say,

00:28:40.520 what kind of Orwellian nonsense

00:28:41.960 are you talking about?

00:28:43.200 What on earth

00:28:44.180 does that mean?

00:28:45.120 But it's the inclusion.

00:28:47.020 You want to bring people in.

00:28:48.960 You want to,

00:28:50.680 nothing can be

00:28:51.940 exclusively true.

00:28:53.220 Everything has to be true.

00:28:54.420 Everything has to feel good.

00:28:55.620 Everyone has to be included.

00:28:57.940 You know,

00:28:58.480 when I was in college,

00:28:59.680 the president of the college

00:29:01.020 was a left-wing guy

00:29:02.840 for sure,

00:29:03.340 but he had

00:29:04.320 a more old school liberalism,

00:29:07.920 a more,

00:29:08.300 an earlier stage liberalism

00:29:09.840 before this crazy liberation

00:29:11.420 from meaning

00:29:11.980 and he one time

00:29:13.240 said something

00:29:13.820 very profound.

00:29:14.680 He said,

00:29:15.300 the truth is arrogant.

00:29:17.760 The truth is arrogant.

00:29:21.460 What does that mean?

00:29:23.500 The truth is exclusive.

00:29:25.780 The truth is not inclusive.

00:29:28.200 The truth would not do very well

00:29:30.220 if he got called

00:29:30.920 into the dean

00:29:31.640 of diversity and inclusion.

00:29:35.120 True statements

00:29:36.820 exclude

00:29:37.820 untrue statements.

00:29:40.940 True conclusions

00:29:42.200 from certain premises

00:29:43.320 exclude

00:29:44.260 other conclusions.

00:29:46.480 You can't be

00:29:47.580 everything

00:29:48.160 to everybody.

00:29:49.360 I had a friend of mine,

00:29:50.820 this great guy,

00:29:51.780 left-wing kind of guy,

00:29:52.900 and we were talking

00:29:53.920 about religion

00:29:54.500 and he said,

00:29:56.060 why can't

00:29:57.060 all religions

00:29:58.300 be true?

00:29:59.720 You know,

00:30:00.140 I mean,

00:30:00.440 you know man,

00:30:01.340 why can't you be

00:30:02.020 Christian

00:30:02.620 and Buddhist

00:30:03.860 and Jewish

00:30:04.680 and Muslim

00:30:05.540 and Hindu?

00:30:06.200 Why can't you just be

00:30:07.060 like all of those things?

00:30:08.840 You can't be all of those things

00:30:10.360 because they make

00:30:11.240 conflicting claims.

00:30:14.560 Two plus two

00:30:15.220 cannot at the same time

00:30:16.460 equal four

00:30:17.200 and equal five.

00:30:19.960 God cannot

00:30:20.720 at the same time

00:30:21.720 have one nature

00:30:22.640 and then have a nature

00:30:23.500 that contradicts that nature.

00:30:24.800 those two things,

00:30:29.020 two opposing things

00:30:30.220 cannot be true

00:30:31.440 at once.

00:30:32.240 You can't be

00:30:33.080 everything

00:30:33.600 to everybody.

00:30:36.400 A painting

00:30:37.120 is a painting

00:30:37.880 because it's not

00:30:38.940 a photograph.

00:30:40.760 Coffee

00:30:41.260 is coffee

00:30:41.920 because it's not

00:30:42.980 orange soda.

00:30:44.860 Why can't it be both?

00:30:46.240 It can't be both.

00:30:47.500 A cathedral

00:30:48.200 is a cathedral

00:30:49.220 because it's not

00:30:50.800 a mosque.

00:30:51.300 It's not a mosque.

00:30:55.720 Notre Dame

00:30:56.260 is not a mosque.

00:30:57.640 It's not a synagogue.

00:30:59.260 It's not a

00:30:59.980 whatever Buddhists have.

00:31:00.980 I don't know

00:31:01.240 what Buddhists have.

00:31:02.400 It's not a

00:31:03.720 brunch

00:31:05.040 cafe.

00:31:06.720 It isn't

00:31:07.340 those things.

00:31:08.580 Clearly

00:31:09.100 they're very upset

00:31:09.780 about this

00:31:10.320 that certain things

00:31:11.400 cannot be true

00:31:12.020 at once.

00:31:13.540 The left

00:31:14.420 hates this fact.

00:31:15.860 The left

00:31:16.240 hates the fact

00:31:17.060 that a thing

00:31:18.740 cannot be

00:31:19.560 a different thing

00:31:20.380 Talia Lavin

00:31:22.160 of the Washington Post

00:31:23.160 went after Ben

00:31:24.520 yesterday.

00:31:25.480 Went after

00:31:25.860 little old Ben Shapiro

00:31:27.060 because

00:31:28.020 Ben called

00:31:30.380 Notre Dame

00:31:31.020 a monument

00:31:31.700 to western

00:31:32.200 civilization.

00:31:33.680 So she writes

00:31:34.640 in the Washington Post

00:31:35.460 quote

00:31:35.760 shortly thereafter

00:31:36.960 fast talking

00:31:38.360 far right pundit

00:31:39.420 Ben Shapiro

00:31:40.220 called Notre Dame

00:31:41.680 quote

00:31:42.080 a monument

00:31:43.000 to western

00:31:43.460 civilization

00:31:44.040 and Judeo-Christian

00:31:45.300 heritage.

00:31:46.340 Given the

00:31:47.160 already raging

00:31:48.420 rumors about

00:31:49.260 potential Muslim

00:31:50.180 involvement

00:31:50.780 these tweets

00:31:51.920 evoked the

00:31:52.640 specter of a

00:31:53.420 war between

00:31:54.280 Islam and

00:31:55.100 the west

00:31:55.580 that is already

00:31:56.560 part of numerous

00:31:57.680 far right

00:31:58.360 narratives.

00:32:00.380 What?

00:32:01.820 So Ben said

00:32:02.800 that Notre Dame

00:32:04.300 is a monument

00:32:05.300 to western

00:32:06.020 civilization

00:32:06.680 and Judeo-Christian

00:32:08.140 heritage.

00:32:08.960 This is obviously

00:32:09.940 true.

00:32:11.360 You see it in the

00:32:12.300 facades.

00:32:12.820 You see it in the

00:32:13.280 Old Testament

00:32:14.600 imagery in

00:32:15.680 Notre Dame.

00:32:16.960 You see it in the

00:32:17.580 New Testament

00:32:18.100 imagery.

00:32:18.540 You see this is

00:32:19.460 obviously a monument

00:32:20.360 to western

00:32:21.260 civilization.

00:32:22.000 It's an embodiment

00:32:22.680 of western

00:32:23.080 civilization.

00:32:24.900 And she said

00:32:25.860 that by even

00:32:26.740 using that

00:32:27.360 phrase,

00:32:28.080 by saying that

00:32:28.720 Notre Dame

00:32:29.240 is western,

00:32:30.720 is Judeo-Christian,

00:32:32.500 it is therefore

00:32:33.700 anti-Muslim.

00:32:35.620 Because it's not

00:32:36.560 Muslim.

00:32:37.080 Notre Dame's not

00:32:37.700 Muslim.

00:32:39.180 It's Christian.

00:32:40.900 Judeo-Christian

00:32:41.780 in so much as

00:32:42.440 Christ is a Jew.

00:32:43.080 And therefore

00:32:46.780 it's not Buddhist,

00:32:47.640 it's not Hindu,

00:32:48.500 it's not Muslim,

00:32:49.400 it's not those

00:32:50.220 things.

00:32:51.340 Even the phrase

00:32:52.640 western

00:32:53.220 civilization

00:32:53.740 is now

00:32:55.740 considered

00:32:56.280 too exclusive

00:32:57.280 for the left.

00:32:57.960 And this is the

00:32:58.400 irony because

00:32:59.160 western civilization

00:32:59.880 is the only

00:33:00.600 inclusive civilization

00:33:01.700 in history.

00:33:03.480 Western civilization

00:33:04.180 is the only

00:33:04.720 civilization that

00:33:05.420 says,

00:33:05.720 come on,

00:33:06.000 come in,

00:33:06.540 come in,

00:33:06.880 you can be

00:33:07.200 part of this.

00:33:08.460 Obviously in

00:33:09.140 America,

00:33:09.700 anybody can be

00:33:10.240 an American.

00:33:11.260 Americans look

00:33:11.840 completely different.

00:33:12.500 If you point

00:33:13.240 to someone

00:33:13.680 and you say,

00:33:14.480 is that person

00:33:16.260 an American?

00:33:17.520 You couldn't tell

00:33:18.180 by the color

00:33:18.620 of his skin

00:33:19.120 or the way

00:33:19.440 he looks

00:33:19.780 or where he's

00:33:20.100 from or even

00:33:20.600 how he talks.

00:33:23.020 This is even

00:33:23.720 true in Europe.

00:33:24.880 It's less true

00:33:25.440 because these

00:33:26.460 countries are

00:33:26.960 based on peoples.

00:33:28.340 France is based

00:33:29.200 on the Franks.

00:33:29.980 England is based

00:33:30.620 on the Angles.

00:33:31.940 But even in

00:33:33.220 Europe,

00:33:34.080 you have people,

00:33:34.740 especially after

00:33:35.380 colonialism,

00:33:36.180 especially after

00:33:36.840 imperialism,

00:33:37.980 Europe bringing

00:33:38.660 in all of these

00:33:39.420 people to western

00:33:40.160 civilization,

00:33:40.960 spreading western

00:33:41.840 civilization.

00:33:42.700 So you've got

00:33:43.120 the most inclusive

00:33:43.820 civilization in history

00:33:45.060 and yet for liberals,

00:33:47.500 for the left,

00:33:48.040 it's too exclusive.

00:33:49.980 For the liberators,

00:33:51.180 it's too exclusive.

00:33:52.860 And this is why

00:33:53.780 we can't rebuild

00:33:54.640 Notre Dame.

00:33:55.780 We can't do it

00:33:56.840 because we're too

00:33:58.160 busy liberating

00:33:59.220 ourselves from

00:33:59.940 our civilization.

00:34:01.620 We're too busy

00:34:02.700 liberating ourselves

00:34:03.980 even from the thing

00:34:05.860 that defines us.

00:34:07.040 Emmanuel Macron,

00:34:10.160 the head of France,

00:34:12.100 promised to rebuild

00:34:13.240 Notre Dame

00:34:14.000 more beautifully

00:34:15.520 than before.

00:34:17.620 Now I see he's

00:34:18.140 trying to make

00:34:18.660 the country feel

00:34:19.300 better.

00:34:19.640 They've just lost

00:34:20.280 this pillar of

00:34:21.840 their country

00:34:22.520 and their civilization.

00:34:25.520 You're not going

00:34:26.360 to rebuild Notre Dame

00:34:27.220 more beautifully

00:34:27.740 than before.

00:34:28.380 It's not going to

00:34:28.960 happen.

00:34:30.120 Because the trouble

00:34:31.100 here is that

00:34:32.340 beauty is particular.

00:34:33.560 Homogeneity is sterile.

00:34:37.880 It's clinical.

00:34:38.600 It's ugly.

00:34:39.160 It's unpleasant.

00:34:40.720 Beauty is particular.

00:34:42.680 Beauty is in that

00:34:43.640 spire of Notre Dame

00:34:44.980 that we saw

00:34:45.860 collapse in flames.

00:34:47.400 Beauty is in every

00:34:48.280 little nook and cranny

00:34:49.280 of every little statue

00:34:50.380 on that facade.

00:34:52.020 You'll notice in

00:34:52.780 modern architecture

00:34:53.580 everything is flat,

00:34:55.060 homogenous,

00:34:56.140 sterile.

00:34:56.980 It's all the same.

00:34:57.820 There's nothing

00:34:58.180 particular about it.

00:34:59.360 Think of modern

00:34:59.980 office buildings.

00:35:01.000 Think of modern

00:35:01.640 churches.

00:35:02.680 Modern churches

00:35:03.340 and Notre Dame

00:35:04.840 look,

00:35:05.780 they don't even look

00:35:06.640 like they're in

00:35:07.020 the same category.

00:35:09.420 Modern churches,

00:35:09.920 they're all sleek.

00:35:11.340 They're all flat.

00:35:12.860 They're all,

00:35:14.340 you can put on them

00:35:15.240 any idea you want.

00:35:16.180 There's nothing

00:35:16.640 particular about them.

00:35:18.180 But the beautiful

00:35:19.100 ancient cathedrals

00:35:20.040 and medieval cathedrals,

00:35:22.340 those are particular.

00:35:25.720 And it's something

00:35:26.580 in our whole culture.

00:35:27.400 We want to say

00:35:28.120 there's no such thing

00:35:29.280 as men and women.

00:35:30.040 There's no such thing

00:35:30.800 as differences

00:35:32.840 of thought

00:35:33.420 or differences

00:35:33.900 of idea.

00:35:34.500 There's no such

00:35:35.020 thing as any of that.

00:35:36.800 It's all the same.

00:35:37.620 It's all the same.

00:35:38.140 But of course not.

00:35:39.800 Beauty is particular.

00:35:41.940 Think about

00:35:42.520 why you are

00:35:43.700 attracted to

00:35:44.620 your girlfriend

00:35:45.500 or your spouse

00:35:46.660 or your husband

00:35:47.480 or your boyfriend

00:35:48.060 or whatever.

00:35:49.420 Is it because

00:35:50.520 they're completely

00:35:51.760 plain looking

00:35:52.500 and they look

00:35:52.940 exactly like

00:35:53.620 everybody else

00:35:54.260 and everything's

00:35:54.800 exactly the same?

00:35:55.680 No.

00:35:56.300 It's her eyes

00:35:57.960 or her nose

00:35:58.980 or her other things

00:36:00.820 maybe or her hair

00:36:01.940 which is why

00:36:02.900 Joe Biden

00:36:03.520 is attracted

00:36:04.220 to certain women,

00:36:05.420 many women.

00:36:06.420 It's because

00:36:06.980 of these particular things.

00:36:08.920 If I said

00:36:09.320 describe your wife

00:36:11.020 to me,

00:36:11.940 you wouldn't say

00:36:12.600 she's completely plain.

00:36:14.360 She looks exactly

00:36:15.440 like everybody else.

00:36:16.360 No, you wouldn't.

00:36:16.940 You would go on

00:36:17.660 about these particular things.

00:36:19.680 The same is true

00:36:20.640 of ideas.

00:36:22.860 The culture

00:36:23.880 that created Notre Dame

00:36:25.220 that was able

00:36:25.700 to build

00:36:26.160 Notre Dame Cathedral

00:36:27.080 is a very particular one.

00:36:29.100 It's particularly

00:36:30.080 a culture

00:36:30.700 shaped by a particular man

00:36:32.760 who is God incarnate

00:36:34.680 who lived in a particular place

00:36:36.220 at a particular time

00:36:37.220 who was crucified

00:36:38.260 at a particular time

00:36:39.420 who conquered death

00:36:40.320 and rose again

00:36:41.120 on a particular day

00:36:42.800 who formed

00:36:43.640 a particular church

00:36:44.920 that spread

00:36:45.760 throughout particular places.

00:36:47.340 That's where

00:36:48.520 that beauty comes from.

00:36:49.720 That's where

00:36:50.020 every statue

00:36:51.300 on the facade

00:36:52.080 of Notre Dame

00:36:53.520 every relic

00:36:55.420 every work of art

00:36:56.940 every beautiful aspect

00:36:59.020 of architecture

00:36:59.640 comes from

00:37:00.420 that particularity

00:37:01.700 not from this

00:37:02.820 plain Jane sterility.

00:37:05.080 It's one of the great lies

00:37:06.240 of our era

00:37:07.260 that detail

00:37:09.240 and particular things

00:37:10.360 are bad

00:37:10.920 and plain

00:37:12.260 generic

00:37:13.360 clinical

00:37:14.120 cynical things

00:37:15.400 are good.

00:37:16.020 This is a great lie

00:37:17.820 but it does affect

00:37:18.900 the way that we think.

00:37:20.540 It affects

00:37:20.960 our very thought.

00:37:22.120 There was a tweet

00:37:23.000 that came out yesterday

00:37:23.980 from Library Journal

00:37:26.180 which I haven't

00:37:27.900 subscribed in years

00:37:28.680 to Library Journal.

00:37:29.620 I don't know about you.

00:37:31.100 There's apparently

00:37:32.000 a journal

00:37:32.400 called Library Journal

00:37:33.280 and Library Journal

00:37:35.200 now believes

00:37:35.860 that libraries

00:37:36.580 are tools

00:37:37.100 of white supremacy.

00:37:40.360 If it weren't

00:37:41.860 so hilarious

00:37:43.300 it would be tragic

00:37:44.340 and it is tragic.

00:37:46.160 Library Journal

00:37:46.700 sent out this tweet

00:37:47.480 they said quote

00:37:48.080 library collections

00:37:49.760 continue to promote

00:37:51.180 and proliferate

00:37:52.160 whiteness

00:37:53.000 in their very existence

00:37:54.680 and the fact

00:37:55.760 that they are physically

00:37:56.660 taking up space

00:37:57.860 in our libraries

00:37:59.120 which I gotta tell you

00:38:02.100 if I were

00:38:02.620 an ethnic minority

00:38:04.180 I would be very offended

00:38:05.640 by that tweet

00:38:06.500 because what you're saying

00:38:07.960 is that books are white

00:38:09.100 reading is a white activity

00:38:11.700 writing is a white activity

00:38:13.620 following arguments

00:38:14.980 to their logical conclusion

00:38:16.340 that's a white activity

00:38:17.440 only that's whiteness itself

00:38:19.260 a very offensive statement

00:38:20.620 to make

00:38:21.120 and what Library Journal

00:38:22.300 was doing

00:38:23.180 is linking

00:38:23.660 to this weirdo blogger lady

00:38:26.180 Sophia Leung

00:38:27.380 Leung

00:38:28.680 and so I read

00:38:30.460 the blog entry

00:38:31.840 in so much

00:38:32.440 as it was

00:38:33.080 coherent

00:38:34.780 or understandable

00:38:36.060 I read it

00:38:36.680 and this is what she wrote

00:38:38.440 quote

00:38:38.720 if you look at

00:38:39.800 any United States

00:38:40.940 libraries collection

00:38:42.100 especially those

00:38:43.220 in higher education institutions

00:38:45.080 most of the collections

00:38:46.780 books, journals,

00:38:48.360 archival papers,

00:38:49.180 other media, etc.

00:38:49.880 are written by white dudes

00:38:51.900 writing about white ideas

00:38:54.020 white things

00:38:55.280 or ideas

00:38:56.040 people and things

00:38:57.220 they stole

00:38:57.980 from people of color

00:38:59.660 and then claimed

00:39:00.800 as white property

00:39:01.900 whatever that means

00:39:04.500 so she says

00:39:05.900 most of the collections

00:39:06.740 are written by white dudes

00:39:07.700 this is true

00:39:08.400 most of the people

00:39:09.500 in the history

00:39:10.200 of western civilization

00:39:10.920 are white dudes

00:39:11.720 that's true

00:39:13.480 and it's a testament

00:39:14.220 to western civilization

00:39:15.020 actually

00:39:15.620 that they're able

00:39:16.520 to include

00:39:17.080 other people

00:39:17.760 who don't look like them

00:39:18.820 other civilizations

00:39:19.940 don't do that

00:39:20.600 but then she goes

00:39:21.400 and says

00:39:21.680 white ideas

00:39:22.980 what's a white idea?

00:39:27.880 Inclusion and diversity?

00:39:29.040 I guess that's a white idea

00:39:29.980 it's kind of ironic

00:39:30.820 isn't it?

00:39:31.860 It does appear

00:39:32.780 to be a white idea

00:39:33.580 the civilization

00:39:34.160 of white people

00:39:34.980 came up with those ideas

00:39:36.400 and then brought

00:39:36.840 everybody else in

00:39:37.640 that's a pretty good idea

00:39:38.560 I guess it's a white idea

00:39:40.800 that becomes

00:39:41.200 everybody's idea

00:39:42.000 but it's also

00:39:45.460 a distrust

00:39:46.260 of ideas themselves

00:39:47.340 saying even ideas

00:39:49.480 are tribal

00:39:50.980 we cannot

00:39:52.080 actually communicate

00:39:53.560 what is the purpose

00:39:54.620 of a book?

00:39:55.380 The purpose of a book

00:39:56.100 is to put down

00:39:57.000 ideas

00:39:58.280 narratives

00:39:59.200 thoughts

00:40:00.400 artwork

00:40:01.040 and you put them

00:40:02.240 out of your own head

00:40:03.960 you put them down

00:40:04.540 on paper

00:40:04.960 then you hand it

00:40:05.760 to somebody else

00:40:06.440 and then that person

00:40:07.460 can have those ideas

00:40:08.580 in their head

00:40:09.120 it is communication

00:40:11.140 it's bridging gaps

00:40:12.200 between peoples

00:40:12.980 and what Sarah Lung

00:40:14.360 Sophia Lung

00:40:15.900 and Library Journal

00:40:18.420 are saying

00:40:18.780 is no

00:40:19.120 that is not possible

00:40:20.400 communication

00:40:20.900 is not possible

00:40:22.140 that premise

00:40:23.160 is not possible

00:40:24.580 and then of course

00:40:25.340 she contradicts herself

00:40:26.400 because she says

00:40:26.840 they're white ideas

00:40:28.080 stolen from

00:40:29.480 people of color

00:40:30.300 so I guess

00:40:32.340 they're people of color

00:40:33.100 ideas

00:40:33.700 whatever those ideas

00:40:34.940 I don't know

00:40:35.220 what those ideas

00:40:35.780 are either

00:40:36.520 and then they're claimed

00:40:37.260 as white property

00:40:38.180 whatever that is

00:40:39.520 okay

00:40:39.820 and Library Journal

00:40:41.620 is posting this

00:40:42.380 this is the irony

00:40:43.180 right

00:40:43.480 you've got Library Journal

00:40:45.020 saying that libraries

00:40:46.720 are terrible

00:40:47.300 this is a telling example

00:40:49.640 of what the West

00:40:50.960 is doing

00:40:51.540 constantly

00:40:52.520 this is a telling example

00:40:54.540 they're just

00:40:55.240 constantly saying

00:40:56.500 we hate ourselves

00:40:57.960 we hate our peoples

00:40:59.800 we hate our institutions

00:41:01.800 we hate our culture

00:41:03.460 we hate our religion

00:41:05.100 we hate our nations

00:41:07.280 we

00:41:08.020 it's the suicide

00:41:08.980 of the West

00:41:09.700 this is what is meant

00:41:10.500 by that phrase

00:41:11.160 this is the suicide

00:41:12.600 of the West

00:41:13.320 and this also helps

00:41:14.420 to explain

00:41:15.080 the madness

00:41:16.000 that you see

00:41:16.940 with these left wingers

00:41:17.900 the other day

00:41:18.640 when I was in Kansas City

00:41:19.720 and I'm looking there

00:41:21.220 at these crazy protesters

00:41:22.700 who were shrieking

00:41:23.960 and screaming

00:41:24.700 and they

00:41:25.320 they said

00:41:26.120 we're oppressed

00:41:26.900 and they've got this

00:41:27.500 far off wacky look

00:41:28.800 in their eye

00:41:29.300 I saw madness

00:41:30.760 I saw insanity

00:41:31.560 at Texas A&M

00:41:33.580 last night

00:41:33.980 the topic of the discussion

00:41:35.200 with me and Drew

00:41:36.000 was

00:41:36.960 can we survive

00:41:37.940 the crazy left

00:41:38.980 this is a madness

00:41:40.380 but it's a madness

00:41:41.620 born not of some

00:41:42.560 psychological condition

00:41:43.800 but of a philosophical condition

00:41:45.520 of erasing our own premises

00:41:48.440 because when you go back

00:41:49.580 far enough

00:41:50.260 and you say

00:41:50.920 okay I'm going to erase

00:41:51.840 our political institutions

00:41:53.620 I'm going to erase

00:41:54.360 our cultural institutions

00:41:55.520 I'm going to erase

00:41:56.220 our religious institutions

00:41:58.120 I'm going to erase

00:41:59.100 our assumptions

00:41:59.820 then you're left

00:42:02.160 with nothing

00:42:02.720 you're left

00:42:03.080 with a blank mind

00:42:04.420 this is what is meant

00:42:07.060 by the phrase

00:42:07.580 when the left always says

00:42:08.520 you've got to open your mind

00:42:10.200 conservatives are closed minded

00:42:11.780 this is always ironic

00:42:13.260 because conservatives

00:42:14.040 are much more willing

00:42:15.040 to entertain different ideas

00:42:16.360 than left wingers are

00:42:17.600 however they say

00:42:19.220 you've got to be open minded

00:42:20.280 open minded

00:42:20.960 and what the left does

00:42:21.960 they do open their minds

00:42:23.140 they open their minds

00:42:23.880 so much

00:42:24.460 that their brains fall out

00:42:25.920 and so there's nothing

00:42:27.640 in there

00:42:27.980 just it's like

00:42:28.800 you could play pong

00:42:29.820 all day inside the head

00:42:31.180 because there's nothing

00:42:32.400 in there

00:42:32.800 and this is by design

00:42:34.280 this is why the left

00:42:35.920 always says

00:42:36.360 we've got to listen

00:42:37.000 to the children

00:42:37.680 listen the wisdom

00:42:40.080 from the mouths of babes

00:42:41.480 we've got to listen

00:42:42.300 because it's an elevation

00:42:45.360 of ignorance

00:42:46.100 because they think

00:42:47.220 that knowledge

00:42:48.880 wisdom

00:42:49.360 maturity

00:42:50.020 ideas

00:42:51.000 premises

00:42:51.560 conclusions

00:42:52.200 all of that

00:42:53.220 what that really does

00:42:54.220 is it just amounts

00:42:55.540 to bias

00:42:56.320 and prejudice

00:42:57.280 and bigotry

00:42:58.600 and exclusion

00:42:59.860 because the truth

00:43:01.300 is arrogant

00:43:01.840 so what you've got to do

00:43:03.160 is get all of that

00:43:03.900 out of there

00:43:04.420 so little children

00:43:05.460 who are completely ignorant

00:43:06.520 they don't know anything

00:43:07.340 they're the ones

00:43:09.020 we should listen to

00:43:09.820 that's why we need

00:43:10.580 to lower the voting age

00:43:11.900 because they know

00:43:13.740 those little children

00:43:15.300 because they have nothing

00:43:16.060 going on in their heads

00:43:17.080 they are the most

00:43:18.780 likely

00:43:20.320 to give us

00:43:21.480 a good government

00:43:22.100 to give us

00:43:22.500 a good culture

00:43:23.060 because they're not

00:43:23.620 filled with bias

00:43:24.380 they're not filled

00:43:24.880 with prejudice

00:43:25.780 this is ultimately

00:43:27.160 what the left

00:43:27.960 always does

00:43:28.580 is attack

00:43:29.960 the tradition

00:43:30.620 this is what

00:43:31.440 liberalism

00:43:32.040 ultimately

00:43:32.660 is liberating

00:43:33.460 us from

00:43:33.940 how do we find

00:43:37.160 meaning

00:43:37.540 how do we find

00:43:38.120 our history

00:43:38.560 how do we find

00:43:39.080 our culture

00:43:39.560 it's in

00:43:40.680 traditions

00:43:42.240 this is why

00:43:43.880 what conservatism

00:43:45.280 ultimately boils

00:43:46.280 down to

00:43:46.740 is the tradition

00:43:47.960 all the various

00:43:49.960 kinds of

00:43:50.520 conservative thought

00:43:51.360 what unifies

00:43:53.660 them all

00:43:54.060 is basically

00:43:54.880 a defense

00:43:55.720 of the tradition

00:43:56.480 maybe one aspect

00:43:57.300 of the tradition

00:43:57.960 over another

00:43:58.860 but that's what

00:43:59.440 it is

00:43:59.700 and it's why

00:44:00.580 intersectionality

00:44:01.660 makes sense

00:44:03.320 to left wingers

00:44:04.100 is because

00:44:04.800 even if you've

00:44:05.460 got various

00:44:06.140 victim groups

00:44:06.960 who all hate

00:44:07.820 each other

00:44:08.260 who all disagree

00:44:09.060 with each other

00:44:09.780 who are skeptical

00:44:11.340 of one another

00:44:12.020 what they all

00:44:13.480 have in common

00:44:14.140 is they want

00:44:14.920 to attack

00:44:15.800 the tradition

00:44:16.400 they want

00:44:17.140 to destroy it

00:44:18.080 they want

00:44:18.640 to burn it

00:44:19.120 down to rubble

00:44:19.920 they want

00:44:20.480 to liberate

00:44:21.320 themselves from it

00:44:22.140 they want

00:44:22.720 to emancipate

00:44:23.860 themselves from it

00:44:24.760 and the only way

00:44:25.740 to liberate

00:44:26.260 and emancipate

00:44:27.300 yourself from

00:44:27.740 meaning

00:44:27.980 is to burn

00:44:29.140 it down

00:44:29.660 and once

00:44:30.200 it's burned

00:44:30.620 down

00:44:30.820 once it's

00:44:31.380 in ashes

00:44:31.800 then the

00:44:33.260 left wing

00:44:33.760 liberal

00:44:34.360 liberating

00:44:35.040 innovator

00:44:35.500 comes in

00:44:36.060 and says

00:44:36.620 we will

00:44:37.620 rebuild it

00:44:38.440 more beautifully

00:44:39.700 than before

00:44:40.400 this is what

00:44:42.180 they told us

00:44:42.960 during the

00:44:44.040 communist

00:44:44.440 revolutions

00:44:45.100 we're going

00:44:45.500 to burn

00:44:45.780 down human

00:44:46.300 nature

00:44:46.660 we're going

00:44:46.940 to send

00:44:47.180 them all

00:44:47.420 off to

00:44:47.660 the gulags

00:44:48.180 but we're

00:44:48.480 going to

00:44:48.660 rebuild it

00:44:49.220 more beautifully

00:44:50.300 than before

00:44:51.260 every totalitarian

00:44:52.340 system

00:44:52.880 and it's

00:44:53.920 what

00:44:54.200 the naive

00:44:55.840 Emmanuel Macron

00:44:56.640 is saying

00:44:57.160 we are going

00:44:58.480 to take

00:44:59.720 the ashes

00:45:00.220 of this

00:45:00.600 cathedral

00:45:01.000 and rebuild

00:45:02.040 it

00:45:02.280 more beautifully

00:45:03.240 than before

00:45:03.960 rebuild it

00:45:05.120 on what

00:45:06.040 nothing

00:45:08.520 from nothing

00:45:09.720 leaves

00:45:10.680 nothing

00:45:11.680 a sad

00:45:14.560 note to end

00:45:15.020 on but

00:45:15.440 it does

00:45:15.880 explain the

00:45:16.380 madness

00:45:16.620 it does

00:45:16.940 go a long

00:45:17.400 way to

00:45:17.680 explain

00:45:18.180 our current

00:45:19.040 cultural

00:45:19.560 madness

00:45:20.340 is there

00:45:20.900 some way

00:45:21.260 to restore

00:45:21.660 sanity

00:45:22.140 perhaps there

00:45:23.020 is

00:45:23.340 but we

00:45:24.060 can't

00:45:24.380 burn

00:45:24.580 things

00:45:24.880 down

00:45:25.140 you can

00:45:25.480 take 200

00:45:26.560 years to

00:45:26.980 build a

00:45:27.240 cathedral

00:45:27.640 stands for

00:45:28.500 800 years

00:45:29.120 you can burn

00:45:29.540 it down

00:45:29.860 in 66
