00:00:00.000 As a former high school math and science teacher, Shannon Bashi has led business organizations, coached and organized children's sports, as well as sat on community charitable foundation and non-profit boards.
00:00:16.780 Most recently, Shannon Bashi became the founder and president of APIC's Digital Research Foundation, an organization tapping into global thought leaders and researchers seeking to understand the unprecedented and stunning rise in the numbers of trans-identified children in the last decade.
00:00:39.900 The goal is to obtain peer-reviewable data about negative impacts of adolescent peer influence and social curation for academic analysis and publication.
00:00:58.580 Shannon advocates for the best possible evidence-based ethical care and support for children presenting with gender dysphoria.
00:01:08.500 Will you welcome again, Shannon Bashi?
00:01:13.140 Thank you.
00:01:23.480 Who's ready for some good news?
00:01:27.480 I have good news.
00:01:30.900 About six months ago, I wrote a piece.
00:01:33.620 I called it the gender bubble. 0.96
00:01:36.160 And the gender bubble is bursting. 0.99
00:01:37.660 I've spent 20 years working in the financial services, advising people how to manage their money.
00:01:44.460 And over that 20 years, I've seen multiple stock market bubbles form and burst.
00:01:49.320 A stock market bubble is a form of mass psychogenic illness that's psychologically contagious.
00:01:55.920 It's fueled by one of the seven deadly sins, greed.
00:01:59.140 And these mass psychogenic illnesses in the stock market are things that we can trace over centuries because we have the data to support it.
00:02:08.200 We have the numbers coming from various market rises and falls.
00:02:12.540 And we understand the psychology of investors when they get overenthusiastic and then when they get overly frightened.
00:02:19.000 We're dealing with a type of mass psychogenic illness with the trans contagion. 1.00
00:02:24.700 It is a belief system that's driven by another one of the seven deadly sins, pride.
00:02:31.340 And we're seeing signs of the market bubble bursting.
00:02:36.640 In 2007, when the market bubble started to break, we heard words like contagion and systemic and infection that was contaminating the global stock markets.
00:02:51.640 And we have the same kind of thing proliferating with gender ideology and the numbers of children who are identifying as transgender.
00:02:59.160 This is a psychogenic mass illness.
00:03:02.540 Now, after Chanel Fall and I and Billboard Chris were mobbed last year in Depean in front of a public high school standing peacefully,
00:03:11.080 I was approached because I know somebody who works in machine learning and artificial intelligence.
00:03:16.180 And so they said, would you like me to query the Internet to find out what the conversation is happening about this issue?
00:03:22.900 And I said, absolutely.
00:03:25.000 And she came back and she was able to identify and confirm for Chris Elston, Billboard Chris, that his goal and his objectives are being fulfilled.
00:03:34.020 His goal is to drive conversations about this ideology, get people talking.
00:03:38.820 And immediately following that event, not just in Canada, but around the world, we saw a big spike in the number of conversations that were happening about this.
00:03:48.520 Now, parallel to all these things going on, you may have heard of some books that have come out.
00:03:52.820 Recently, a book called The Psychology of Totalitarianism by an academic by the name of Matthias Desmet.
00:03:59.720 And one of the things that Desmet describes as a remedy to mass psychogenic illness is talking about it.
00:04:07.500 And almost a year ago this week, there were three of us standing in Depean being mobbed by 300 people.
00:04:13.480 And we've had 50 or 70 people here today talking about this openly.
00:04:18.140 And the more we talk about it openly with our friends and with our family, the faster we will burst this bubble.
00:04:23.860 Now, what are the signs that we're seeing?
00:04:25.280 In the beginning of this year in the UK, which I think is, in the investment world, we call a leading indicator.
00:04:34.260 In the United Kingdom, there was a review report published about the Tavistock Gender Clinic called the Cass Review.
00:04:42.400 It was an independent study done on the world's largest kids' sex change clinic.
00:04:46.480 And what the researcher and the reviewer found was that ideology had taken the place of medical ethics and science.
00:04:56.960 And that a toxic environment of bullying and intimidation had silenced people within the institution.
00:05:02.000 And now one of the councils, who is going to be representing the class action lawsuit with more than 1,000 families registered to sue the National Health Service of the UK,
00:05:14.920 says it's going to be the largest and most expensive legal settlement in the history of England.
00:05:22.860 Now, other affiliated organizations or problematic institutions in the UK.
00:05:27.260 Stonewall. Stonewall was an advocacy organization that was giving stamps of approval for diversity, equity, and trans inclusion to major institutions in the United Kingdom.
00:05:39.760 They've been exposed as a fraud.
00:05:42.240 They've lost tens of millions of dollars or tens of millions of pounds in funding, and they've been discredited.
00:05:47.260 An affiliated organization called Mermaids tried to sue and discredit an organization called LGB Alliance.
00:05:57.620 LGB Alliance is a group of people that is lesbian, gay, bisexual.
00:06:01.580 It's LGB, let's divorce the T. 0.99
00:06:04.560 We just want to be ourselves.
00:06:06.120 We don't want to be political.
00:06:07.360 We want to live amongst everybody and be normal human beings and participate in society.
00:06:12.740 We don't need to wave flags around and have these giant pride parades that have become nothing more than fetish festivals.
00:06:22.440 And Stonewall and Mermaids tried to discredit and take away the charity status of LGB Alliance, and they failed.
00:06:28.460 Not only did they fail, but they exposed themselves as completely corrupt.
00:06:33.420 They are now being investigated for corruption.
00:06:36.280 Just last week, one of the board of directors was exposed as a pedophile. 0.90
00:06:40.680 Someone, just like I read from earlier, sanctioning a sex with children, with young boys. 0.92
00:06:47.040 So he has resigned from the board.
00:06:49.120 And yesterday, another person in the management and communications of Mermaids, there were pictures all over the Internet of this person's perversions.
00:06:59.300 So these are signs that the bubble is bursting.
00:07:02.740 These are signs that hopefully we'll start to see in Canada.
00:07:05.360 In the last year in the UK, and by the way, a year ago, 15 months ago, when I really started digging into this,
00:07:11.920 and I started digging into this because it affects one of my kids, there was no news.
00:07:19.920 We were bereft of any kind of media talking about this.
00:07:24.340 And so many thousands of parents forming underground networks.
00:07:29.100 There are secret societies that have formed in Canada, the United States, and Europe of parents trying to bring this forward
00:07:35.320 because we can't talk about it publicly.
00:07:38.840 And starting in November last year, there was a Washington Post article.
00:07:42.680 We started to see the New York Times come to talk about this.
00:07:45.640 We've seen the National Post breakthrough on articles about this in the last couple of months.
00:07:49.420 Now, almost every day, there is a major news story about this gender bubble bursting, this mass psychosis ending. 0.92
00:07:59.280 The way that we confront this is to talk about it.
00:08:02.880 And you will be amazed because I decided to talk about this when my child outed me.
00:08:09.000 I was talking under a pseudonym.
00:08:11.060 I was talking quietly.
00:08:12.380 And my child, who was fueled on testosterone that's not natural to her body, decided she was going to attack me publicly. 1.00
00:08:20.760 And I thought, well, if my name is going to get out there, I'm going to talk.
00:08:25.140 So then I started talking to my friends.
00:08:27.460 I started talking to my family.
00:08:29.120 I started talking to my business colleagues.
00:08:31.240 And I was incredibly relieved that so many people were receptive to what was going on.
00:08:38.160 Not this small percentage of activist people that are fueled by hate and anger and will try and shut everybody up.
00:08:44.560 The majority of people don't believe in this.
00:08:47.220 And all we have to do is get a small percentage of people who are willing to talk about it and stand in it like we all are.
00:08:53.420 And we're going to change it.
00:08:56.020 Now, one of the things that came out after this event last fall where we were mobbed
00:09:04.220 is a local Canadian artificial intelligence firm said, can we map this conversation?
00:09:12.340 And now that has expanded because I chose to talk to people and explore possibilities.
00:09:18.780 I was connected with Dr. Lisa Littman from Brown University.
00:09:22.560 Dr. Lisa Littman published in 2018, you may have heard the term rapid onset gender dysphoria, ROGD.
00:09:29.320 That was her coinage.
00:09:30.440 It was a descriptive term for the kind of phenomena we're seeing in schools
00:09:34.660 where children in groups, like in Fort Langley, five kids in a class.
00:09:42.520 And you know what? That's not exceptional.
00:09:44.380 I've heard from many teachers here in Ottawa and parents about different classrooms,
00:09:48.940 grade 6, grade 7, grade 8, grade 9, where there's five or more kids identified.
00:09:53.780 It's unbelievable how pervasive this is.
00:09:56.300 So, we have Dr. Lisa Littman, we have a legal ethicist, we have a cognitive scientist,
00:10:04.240 we have a psychotherapist.
00:10:05.900 I've created a board of directors in a non-profit company called APISC Digital Research.
00:10:10.840 APISC stands for Adolescent Peer Influence and Social Contagion.
00:10:16.440 Now, the activists want to tell us that this isn't socially contagious.
00:10:19.280 But yawns are socially contagious.
00:10:23.480 We know that anorexia, bulimia, cutting, depression, and anxiety are all socially contagious.
00:10:29.440 We know, unfortunately, that suicide clusters occur in teenagers.
00:10:34.220 It's socially contagious.
00:10:35.400 We built a data sample, and we're expecting interim results, although I got a sneak peek a couple of weeks ago.
00:10:43.240 We have a sample of 300,000 people, users of Twitter in the United States.
00:10:48.620 We're building a similar data sample of Twitter in Canada, and we're going to go onto Reddit and Tumblr.
00:10:55.120 We're going to go into the internet, and we're going to identify patterns of this social contagion.
00:11:00.420 We're going to figure out how it's spreading, and we're going to formulate ways to fight it.
00:11:05.500 We're going to formulate ways in legal ethics to help social media companies and legislators pass policies
00:11:12.380 to prevent this from infecting our children.
00:11:16.400 We're going to get hard data.
00:11:17.920 The big criticism that we've had in the last couple of years is that, oh, these are just a couple little studies.
00:11:24.060 You've got 100 families that are interviewed.
00:11:26.680 We've got 100 detransitioners that are interviewed.
00:11:28.900 That's not sufficient.
00:11:30.900 We're not going to accept that as proof.
00:11:32.880 But we have one of the leading artificial intelligence firms, not just in Canada, but in the world, who's helping us do this.
00:11:38.740 And I have some fantastic news that in the last 24 hours, I have a pretty good sign that we're going to have the next round of our funding.
00:11:46.580 We've already raised $25,000 Canadian.
00:11:48.980 That $20,000 U.S. donation is coming to help fund the next phase of this project.
00:11:54.620 And we expect to be able to start talking about data in the next two to three weeks.
00:11:59.720 My goal is to burst the gender bubble. 1.00
00:12:03.540 And part of that is me running for school board here in Ottawa.
00:12:07.540 A little side project along the way.
00:12:09.420 And I hope and I pray that we can prevent more kids from getting drawn into this craziness, these atrocities.
00:12:18.880 I mentioned earlier today that I am an abuse survivor.
00:12:22.180 And in my late teens and early 20s, I was a lost person.
00:12:27.420 I was fueled by anger and had no direction.
00:12:31.980 And I went seeking and I left my church because unfortunately the person who abused me was affiliated with the church.
00:12:39.240 And I sometimes describe it as being beaten with the Bible. 0.86
00:12:43.380 And so I went to explore different philosophies and traditions.
00:12:46.000 And one day I was in a cafe in Vancouver and I met an indigenous man who was painting a mural.
00:12:50.620 And it happened to be his 30th birthday.
00:12:53.360 And I'm a few years younger than him.
00:12:54.960 And he spent the afternoon answering my questions about his traditions and his stories.
00:13:00.180 And he shared with me that he too was a survivor.
00:13:04.280 Him, though, of the residential school system.
00:13:07.420 And I ended up because of knowing him in healing circles.
00:13:12.820 Not just indigenous people.
00:13:14.360 In fact, only about a third of indigenous people.
00:13:16.340 But people from all walks of life dealing with trauma like I was.
00:13:19.620 And I heard the stories of individuals who survived the Kamloops Indian Residential School.
00:13:27.800 And the stories that we hear in the media aren't the stories that come out of the actual survivors of these schools.
00:13:36.420 And the stories that we hear and the narratives that we have don't reflect the attitudes that most indigenous people have.
00:13:41.240 What I learned from hearing those stories and carrying them with me and carrying that medicine that I received in my own journey these last two and a half decades.
00:13:52.140 Is that the schools, the people running the schools, the government, the politicians decided that they knew better than parents.
00:14:01.560 That was the fundamental flaw in the residential schools.
00:14:04.420 They disrespected the culture of the community and of the parents.
00:14:08.600 And they tried to impose their own ideology.
00:14:11.860 And that's exactly what we're seeing today.
00:14:14.340 We're seeing a larger scale set of abuses in the public education system in Canada today than we saw through the residential school system.
00:14:25.640 And it's not isolated by a particular identity group as far as we can tell.
00:14:30.520 So my hope is that as this bubble starts to burst we can recognize this and we can take steps to mediate it and hopefully together we can heal.
00:14:41.520 Thank you.
00:14:43.900 Thank you.
00:14:44.900 Thank you.
00:14:49.200 Thank you.
00:14:51.400 You
