Based Camp - How Blood Libel Became Central to Wokeism

00:00:00.000 Hello, Simone! I'm excited to be here with you today. Today, we are going to have a conversation

00:00:04.420 about how blood libel has become incredibly common among the left, to the point where I'd argue that

00:00:10.740 almost every mainstream leftist politician has engaged in blood libel.

00:00:15.720 Can you explain what blood libel is to me? I hear people talk about it on the internets,

00:00:19.700 but I don't. So blood libel, in its traditional context, is used to talk about the long-standing

00:00:27.480 anti-Semitic accusation that claims that Jewish rituals require them to murder non-Jews, often

00:00:35.060 children. Where did that come from? Well, it came from delusional anti-Semitism. Largely the point of 0.66

00:00:42.140 blood libel is, is it is libel, so like lying, falsely accusing somebody, of killing a person of

00:00:49.720 your group. Which is also kind of ironic, because weren't Jews kind of famous for not exposing their

00:00:55.060 reality? Yeah, I've mentioned this to Simone, but Tacticus, a Roman politician, complained, well not a

00:00:59.180 politician, he's a guy who invented strategy. We'll probably get one of our kids after them, but he

00:01:02.460 complained that, because it was common to expose babies in ancient Rome, that one of the traditions

00:01:07.400 he found particularly barbaric among the Jews is they didn't expose their babies. But the point I'm 1.00

00:01:13.000 making here is not about that. The reason why blood libel is bad, the reason why we bring up this horrible

00:01:19.200 and evil thing, and we're like, do not do this as a society, the reason why everyone's like, that's

00:01:24.300 blood libel, is because what blood libel allows. To lie about a group, to say they are killing people

00:01:31.160 that they are not killing, allows and gives moral justification for other people to kill them.

00:01:39.960 That's what motivates pogroms, that's what motivates Holocaust, and it's so wild to me that I will see 0.99

00:01:47.880 leftists say, how, why, why do we not study the Nazis? Why do we not learn about anti-Semitism of

00:01:56.640 the past? Why do we not learn what led to that? And I'm like, and then they'll, they'll then point at

00:02:01.860 Trump, like he is what it looks like to be going down the direction of Nazism. And I'm like, this is

00:02:07.440 not, what are you, what are you talking about? Like, this is your side that is doing all of the

00:02:13.900 preparatory steps for Nazism, and one of the most common is the renormalization of blood libel. 0.85

00:02:21.100 And the reason why I am pointing out that it is definitionally blood related to killing another

00:02:27.240 group, libel, lying about a group, is because we on the right need to start calling this out when it

00:02:33.840 happened, it happens, and not allow people to weasel out of it. Like if somebody in the room

00:02:39.400 says that blacks are disproportionately killed by police, which we're going to go over all the

00:02:44.300 stats on this, or they say not transitioning children leads to them dying, and we'll go over

00:02:49.520 the stats on this, both of these things are very provably false, unless you really like look at the

00:02:55.800 data in an absolutely cross-eyed way. And then you say, and because of that, I'm allowed to act in this

00:03:03.040 way. This is what we see with the Charlie Kirk shooting, this is what we see in all of this stuff,

00:03:07.180 they are doing what the Nazis did, they are feeding their troops with a belief, and mainstream figures 0.78

00:03:13.740 do this. I'm going to play a figure here of the guy who runs Young Turks. This is Hassan's wealthy

00:03:18.880 uncle, both of them super wealthy, if you didn't know that. This brother comes along, I don't know

00:03:22.480 who his man is. I mean, people say maybe that he's got a following, but I've never heard of him,

00:03:26.080 right? And his co-conspirator, Meister, or whatever, right? But this guy's talking about,

00:03:31.240 oh yeah, run over protesters, I don't mind it, he said. So you don't mind extreme violence

00:03:35.020 running over somebody with a car, okay? But you know what, why don't we instead arrest them for

00:03:40.320 exercising one of the most fundamental American rights, freedom of speech. The one, remember,

00:03:44.380 that you guys all pretended you were in favor of? I know some of them meant it, but apparently a lot

00:03:48.960 of them, including Hassan and Jägermeister, didn't mean it. They thought, oh, freedom of speech for me,

00:03:53.000 for me, to say that maybe you should be murdered or be made my slave. My freedom of speech, good. And by 0.98

00:03:57.100 the way, I wouldn't cancel that. I don't mind him saying the terrible things that he says. Now we know who he is.

00:04:00.580 So, and I'm not afraid of his speech. I'm not afraid that the majority of Americans are going

00:04:04.620 to look at that and go, oh yeah, well, I think we should, instead of having freedom of speech,

00:04:07.440 if anyone exercises freedom of speech in a way that I don't like politically, we should arrest

00:04:11.520 them, take away all their rights, make sure they can't vote, and then turn them into slaves. No, 1.00

00:04:15.240 98% of Americans are going to be against that. But Hassan thinks that's a great idea. So he's like,

00:04:19.780 oh yeah, I'm for freedom of speech, unless it's left-wingers. How dare they protest our government?

00:04:24.800 Let's take away all their rights. And I don't know if his followers were like, what an idiot. 1.00

00:04:28.120 We said freedom of speech, dumb ass. Or if they're like, yeah, yeah, we hate freedom of 1.00

00:04:32.060 speech now. Now that we're in charge, let's turn them into slaves. Are 13 people watching 0.64

00:04:37.180 that show? Who would like that kind of monstrously un-American piece like that, who doesn't believe 0.99

00:04:43.320 in America at all? So if you're watching our show, I would assume you've seen some of

00:04:48.240 Asmogold, and you would know that he has never said anything remotely like what this guy

00:04:52.520 is purporting that he has said. And as an aside here, the reason, zoomed in on the numbers

00:04:57.480 at the end there is because Asmogold completely schools this guy in terms of numbers. He releases

00:05:03.300 videos every day that get multi-million views. But here he is talking about Asmogold.

00:05:08.460 Okay. Oh.

00:05:10.000 In the clip, you see him saying that Asmogold supports using lethal force on protesters.

00:05:17.040 Okay. So what did Asmogold actually say? Asmogold said, if somebody attacks a law enforcement

00:05:26.220 officer with a lethal object, that the law enforcement officer has the right to use lethal force in

00:05:34.160 response. He never said attacking like protesters carte blanche, but he's saying that when a protester

00:05:40.920 uses lethal force, the police have an opportunity to use lethal force in response. And yet he's

00:05:46.160 running the number one, like mainstream democratic podcast. And of course, Hassan does this sort of

00:05:50.640 stuff all the time. And he runs the number one democratic live stream. And they're never called

00:05:55.540 out for this. And we need to like, every time they sit down, we need to bring up, you committed

00:06:02.140 blood libel. You are peddling in lies and conspiracy theories that get people killed. And you need to

00:06:12.960 recant them. Okay. And I recently had an opportunity of having to force a journalist to do this. I was

00:06:19.040 just like, that, that is a lie and you are lying and you can't do that anymore. This is 2025. And I

00:06:27.360 think getting mad at them and putting them on the back foot in the way the wokes used to do to us 1.00

00:06:32.500 is absolutely critical because they used to do this whole, I'm have the moral high ground. Don't you

00:06:38.060 know that kills people? Don't you know? And now you just remember your statistics and you can come

00:06:42.960 out and be like, you are lying and people have died as a result of those exact lies. And you need to

00:06:50.760 take responsibility for the death that you're lying leads to. And you should not be platformed until you

00:06:57.600 apologize for lying to people in a way that leads to minority populations dealing with more

00:07:04.360 victimization. For a quick example of what I mean here, but we'll get into more who suffers when

00:07:12.380 you remove police from black neighborhoods. Oh yes. The communities. That's why you see black 1.00

00:07:17.660 communities being much more against defund police than white communities. So before we go further 0.61

00:07:23.720 here, because I want to get into the black cop statistic that they always use in their blood 1.00

00:07:27.780 libel and the trans statistic they use in their blood libel. Do you have any thoughts here?

00:07:30.980 I want to hear you debunk things, but you're absolutely right. I just had never contextualized

00:07:37.420 it as that. And I think that you're right that one of the most important first steps in combating it

00:07:42.460 is calling it out when you see it. So I'm glad you're bringing this up. Yeah. Yeah. And when they

00:07:47.600 say X person is a Nazi, you take them aside and you're like, how exactly how you're on the side that

00:07:54.860 attacks Jewish students on site in college campuses. You're of the side who wants to divide us by our 1.00

00:07:59.840 ethnic group because he is enforcing the law equally, regardless of people's ethnicity.

00:08:04.440 They're like, he's arresting people in front of their children. Does having your children in front

00:08:07.780 of you make you immune to the law? Like, what are you talking about? But anyway, to continue here,

00:08:14.620 like it would, it would be a horrible precedent if we said, Oh, you can commit a crime, just have kids. 0.97

00:08:20.000 And then, because then criminals are going to have a bunch of kids so that they can't get arrested.

00:08:23.140 Yeah. It's just going to lead to a bunch of mistreatment of young people. Not, not good.

00:08:29.560 What a terrible precedent to set. But anyway, continue. Black Americans make up about 13% of

00:08:35.920 the U S population, but account to 25 to 26% of fatal police shootings. Now you're, you're going to 0.92

00:08:41.600 hear that. And you're like, wow, that does sound like a disproportionate amount of police shootings

00:08:45.240 are black people. Now let's go over some other stacks that may contextualize that. So 25 to 26% 0.58

00:08:52.800 of fatal police shootings are black people. Okay. If we use the FBI uniform crime reporting, UCR data for 0.98

00:08:59.520 2023, the murder rate was 40.8% black blacks are let's say 25.5% of the fatal shootings by police, 0.82

00:09:12.120 but they make up over 40% of murderers. Okay. And keep in mind, it's been higher in previous years, 0.97

00:09:18.740 getting up to 56.3% in one year. So let's, let's, okay. You're like, okay, well, you know,

00:09:27.500 it's just some murders and maybe the murders are, are fluctuating or inaccurate. So let's,

00:09:33.960 let's go to the UN UCR data on other things. What percent of robberies are done by black people? 0.97

00:09:39.860 Okay. Remember 25% of police shootings. Okay. 51.3%. 0.99

00:09:46.120 Oh, no. Aggravated assaults. 33.2%. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no. So you're, you're getting 40% of

00:09:56.200 murders, 50, over 50% of robberies, over 30% of aggravated assaults and 25.5% of police shootings.

00:10:05.580 Oh, bad, bad look. So when people, and we're going to go over people died, horrible deaths

00:10:13.780 during black lives matter. We'll get over people who were burned alive. We'll go over all sorts of 0.95

00:10:18.480 people were burned alive. Yeah. They burned a guy alive in his shop, locking him inside and

00:10:22.360 lighting it on fire. Knowingly not, they said not knowingly, but this, when, when Tim Waltz was

00:10:29.480 saying, I love the smell of those businesses burning, which by the way, we're, that was his wife

00:10:34.480 who opened the window to smell. She's smelling people's burning bodies, dying over a lie that 0.97

00:10:41.320 leftists used during an election cycle to attempt to win. Okay. And what should have been getting to

00:10:47.600 people is that if you look at the, the, this, this, I'll just go into this here. This was the

00:10:53.000 death of Oscar Lee Scott Jr., a 30 year old man whose body was found in the rubble of a burned out

00:10:57.180 pawn shop, maxed it pawn in Minneapolis in 2020. So yeah, he, he slowly died from injuries and

00:11:06.160 smoke inhalation as the building collapsed. And there was around 19 to 25 deaths nationwide due to

00:11:11.940 them. For some examples of this, you had David Dorn, a 77 year old black police captain who was shot

00:11:17.720 and killed trying to protect a pawn shop from looters in St. Louis, Missouri. You had Italian Marie 0.98

00:11:23.460 Kelly, a 22 year old woman who was fatally shot on March 31st while leaving a protest and getting

00:11:30.040 caught in unrelated gunfire. And, and keep in mind, it isn't just me saying, actually, if you look at

00:11:35.480 the statistics, blacks are not disproportionately killed by police. If you, if you apply any credulity 0.70

00:11:41.380 to this, right. And keep in mind, even the stated goals of black lives matter are not what black 0.98

00:11:46.740 communities want. Like they want to defund the police. And yet the majority of black Americans do not 0.99

00:11:51.900 want defunded police or less police presence in their communities because they're the ones who

00:11:56.740 get victimized by this higher rate of crime, right? Like their communities higher black crime rates. 1.00

00:12:04.140 Blacks are the vast majority of victims of these higher crime rates. It was black businesses that 1.00

00:12:10.420 were burned down black and Hispanic businesses that were the majority of the businesses that were

00:12:13.540 burned down during these protests. Yeah. The left lies to people in ways that damage the property

00:12:19.720 and neighborhoods that they say that they are protected. They do not. And, and, and I point

00:12:27.780 out here, this is not just about this stuff. When you look at like, oh, well, we need more

00:12:30.860 money for schools. Recently, Mississippi has the highest black use literacy rate in the country.

00:12:36.140 Very. Wow. Okay. And they've likely got the best education program in the world and they did

00:12:41.240 it. We might do a full episode on this because it's really fascinating. I'd like to, it wasn't

00:12:45.440 by injecting a bunch of more money into schools. Actually, they have one of the lowest rates of,

00:12:50.000 of school money. But what they did is they said, kids aren't allowed to graduate the third grade

00:12:53.480 until they can read it at a certain level. They just retake this grade every year.

00:12:56.520 Yeah. So child left behind. Yeah. Literally, we will leave you behind. You dumb. Like Simone was 0.70

00:13:03.520 for context, like forever ago, president George W. Bush introduced this initiative in U S public

00:13:09.840 schools called no child left behind, which spoiler alert, didn't work out so well and improving

00:13:15.800 student outcomes. Focusing on the lowest common denominator is not a good, it turns out ideal.

00:13:20.920 Yeah. And not letting people feel shame and embarrassment for failing is not good. Having

00:13:26.600 to repeat a grade is great motivation to learn your stuff. So I was pointing out at her college,

00:13:32.060 she went to undergrad at GW, they now have a remedial mandatory reading.

00:13:35.540 Well, when I went, I went to college from 20, 2006 to 2010. And my, every freshman that went

00:13:42.140 through the George Washington university had to take a remedial writing class upon matriculating,

00:13:49.280 which is just you, by the way, you understand how different these rates are in Mississippi,

00:13:52.860 the black reading rate is now over 50% for fourth grade. That's awesome. That is awesome. 0.99

00:13:59.020 In California, it's around 25%. Yeah. I mean, I should, I shouldn't say awesome when I still,

00:14:04.300 you know, you want it to be higher. No, but what I'm pointing out here is that Dems don't actually

00:14:09.700 care about these populations. And we pointed this study out a million times, but it is useful to know

00:14:13.940 is that the income gaps between blacks and whites and Hispanics is significantly smaller in Republican

00:14:20.060 districts than it is in Democrat districts. They just do not care. It is a complete fraud.

00:14:25.360 So Royal Friars, 2016 Harvard study. So this is a Harvard study. Okay. Trust the science guys.

00:14:31.580 An empirical analysis of racial differences in police use of force analyzed over a hundred and

00:14:37.080 sorry, 1,300 officer involved shootings from 10 major U.S. police departments. It was data from

00:14:43.320 blah, blah, blah. Black individuals were more likely to be involved in police shootings, 0.97

00:14:47.440 but after controlling for contextual factors, civilian demographics, encounter demographics

00:14:51.040 like time of day and suspect resistance, officer details, and whether a weapon was present,

00:14:54.860 no racial differences were found in the likelihood of being shot. In some specifications,

00:14:59.980 black individuals were 23.5 to 27% less likely to be shot than non-black, non-Hispanic individuals.

00:15:06.620 So, so when you make corrections, black individuals are 23.5 to 27.4 less likely to be shot than other

00:15:14.640 arrested groups. If you're going to commit a lethal crime and you're controlling for, for everything

00:15:19.660 else, which, which you obviously are because you're doing that through committing the crime, 0.91

00:15:22.760 you should be in blackface. That'll like protect bullets flying at you apparently. So like that's, 1.00

00:15:28.420 that is wild. So then there's Joseph Cesario's 2019 study, which is really interesting. It was in

00:15:35.300 PNAS. It was later retracted due to public misuse, they said, although the data integrity wasn't

00:15:42.040 questioned. So the data is fine. They just, Oh, it's just the public can't handle the truth is what

00:15:47.480 they're saying. And it said, however, when they modeled against country level violent crime rates

00:15:54.660 by race as proxy, for example, high-risk police encounters, there was no evidence of anti-black

00:15:58.680 disparity. The, the odds of a black civilian being fatally shot relative to why was significantly lower

00:16:04.860 odd 0.13. White officers were not more likely to shoot civilians than non-white officers. So again,

00:16:12.420 this is not a white officer problem or a problem of racism. If the black cops are doing it just as 1.00

00:16:17.080 much. And then there's Cesario et al's 2020 study considering violence against police by citizen 0.97

00:16:22.920 race and ethnicity. This used data from the Washington post, fatal shootings, Texas and

00:16:26.860 California benchmarks against violence towards police, felonist killings of officers, assaults with

00:16:31.760 firearms and knives from FBI Leoka data. Nationally in Texas, black individuals were not more likely

00:16:38.180 than white individuals to be fatally shot. It's just not true. I think, okay. So if I were someone 0.50

00:16:46.680 on the left trying to respond to what you just said, I would say, well, yeah, but they are subject to

00:16:55.180 systemic racism, which puts them disproportionately in positions where they are committing crimes that are

00:17:01.300 putting them in the line of fire, even though when they do commit those crimes are less likely to actually

00:17:06.260 get shot. I, I think that's like a dumb argument for a few reasons. First dumb reason is that why is 0.98

00:17:18.080 it then that blacks in Republican districts are, presumably they are subject to more systemic racism 0.98

00:17:25.140 or have better economic conditions relative to white populations than in democratic districts, right?

00:17:31.700 To me, that would indicate that whatever is causing these disparities is directly tied to democratic

00:17:39.040 policy. And we actually see this in IQ measured IQ. I'm not saying that there's a genetic difference

00:17:43.800 in IQ, but there is blacks do score lower on tests in the United States. And you could say, well, this is 0.96

00:17:48.120 due to, you know, discrimination. And it's like, but then why are the scores closer, which they are in Republican

00:17:55.660 held districts than in Democrat held districts? Why, why, if it is this, this apparent like Republican

00:18:02.320 systemic racist system, why is it that that seems to help them and whatever you do seems to hurt them?

00:18:09.440 Right. I think that that just completely blows this narrative out of the water. I think the better

00:18:15.580 argument, if I was going to argue for my opponent's side would be to say, well, all of the statistics 0.73

00:18:21.100 around blacks committing murder more and blacks committing aggravated assault more is actually 0.98

00:18:26.520 not that blacks actually do it more. It's that they are more likely to be convicted due to racism 0.99

00:18:32.020 and that they are more likely to be investigated by the police and chased by the police due to racism.

00:18:39.500 Two, my answer to this is, okay, that, that could be possible, but I'd ask you to use your common

00:18:45.720 sense around what types of murders police actually care about. And I'm even, I'm even saying, let's,

00:18:52.500 let's put our racist hats on here. Let's put our, the police are racist monsters hats. Okay. 0.98

00:18:58.100 Police are racist monster hat on. All right. Who do they care about? They care about white women. 1.00

00:19:02.460 I'll try to find one of the scenes. White woman shot. 1.00

00:19:04.480 You know, to try to, you know, get the police out, but it's, it's, it's, it's, they, they care about

00:19:19.920 wealthy people being shot. Those are the classic trope. Yes. Those are the murders that they spend

00:19:23.900 more time investigating. Okay. So there is a correlation between wealth and race in this

00:19:27.560 country. And, and, and there is a likely a correlation between like, and so who's killing,

00:19:33.040 who's killing white people, white people kill white people who kills black people, black people 1.00

00:19:37.200 kill black people. So you go to the ghetto, somebody walks over and gets shot. Do you really 1.00

00:19:42.900 think that that crime is going to be given as much attention by the police department as somebody in

00:19:50.320 a white suburb being shot? Really? Really? You think that that crime is getting the same amount of

00:19:54.680 attention? If anything, I would argue these statistics are likely well under, even if you

00:20:00.000 account for racism, because. Stop your giggling.

00:20:10.680 She's just so happy.

00:20:11.520 You can come in here and say hi, and then you have to go. Do you want to come in to say

00:20:14.660 hi to the fans? Come in quickly. And then you have to go and you only get your computer if

00:20:22.420 you're good. Okay. So you want to say hi? Yeah. Can you tell them to like, and, and subscribe?

00:20:27.740 Yeah. Go ahead and subscribe. Yeah. Okay. And do you love mom and dad? Yeah. If they like it,

00:20:38.540 if they want to subscribe, they can see me in all the videos you make. Okay. Okay. Okay. And if you

00:20:45.960 like it subscribe, you can see me on and off the other videos, one that make it. And did the Tooth Fairy

00:20:52.680 come this morning? Can you show them your missing tooth? Oh. Open your mouth. Yeah. It's right here.

00:20:59.000 You see? If you kind of zoom in, you can see. What did she hide under your pillow? He hide under my

00:21:05.760 pillow. Water bottle with Pikachu's on it and it was filled with Froot Loops. How do you think she got it

00:21:12.160 under your pillow without you waking up? That must've been incredibly difficult. The Tooth Fairy

00:21:17.680 might be invisible. Okay. And if you come back, you don't get your computer tonight. Close the doors.

00:21:25.040 Okay. Okay. I love that kid. It is that I do too, but that is one of the hardest traditions to

00:21:32.840 parental scams. I do not. Who, who came up with the under the pillow thing? Yeah. It's not just,

00:21:38.480 you have to sneak into the bedroom. It's not just, you have to like make it past their room. It is

00:21:43.520 all the way to their beds. You guys don't realize how light of sleepers our kids are.

00:21:49.560 Our son Torsten is just literally up all night. I wake up at the middle of the night. I pull up the

00:21:54.100 camera feed. He's just walking around talking to himself. I mean, he just doesn't sleep.

00:21:58.380 What are we going to do when his teeth start falling out? Right. But the, the point I was making

00:22:03.120 is the problem is, is even if you assume racism and you assume the most racist of police departments,

00:22:08.440 you need to offset the racism of extra black convictions with the racism of not paying nearly

00:22:14.640 as much attention to black deaths. Um, which if you're being practical, almost certainly outweighs 0.97

00:22:21.000 the conviction racism, which almost certainly then again, weights the statistics.

00:22:26.200 Assortative mating and assortative killing.

00:22:28.500 Um, well, I mean, it's a, it's a big deal that this lie became so common, right? Like it's a very,

00:22:37.080 very, very big deal because it led to a lot of deaths and a lot of stupid decisions that led to 1.00

00:22:43.340 even more death. Like Portland's insane idea to decriminalize like all drugs that then led in 0.99

00:22:49.620 Portland with Seattle's. I forgot one of the States. No, it was Portland. And it turned it into

00:22:54.240 this like hell hole where people are dying on the streets all the time. Um, reversed that

00:22:58.300 decision though. Yeah, they did because people dying on the streets all the time. People were

00:23:02.020 like, Oh, I don't like stepping over dead bodies on my way to work every day. This was not a good

00:23:05.740 idea. Not ideal. But if you want to be like, Oh, how is it that blacks do better under Republican

00:23:12.720 health districts? Well, maybe it's because we don't do things like normalize fentanyl. Okay.

00:23:16.940 Like there is a, there is a reason that people suffer under democratic policies, right? There's a

00:23:24.520 reason why Mississippi has these great reading rates, but let's go to the next blood libel that is so

00:23:27.820 common. By the way, do you have any counter arguments or pushback that you would give here?

00:23:33.500 No, I don't. Aside from the, but systemic racism argument, I don't really, I mean, I guess I,

00:23:43.540 I would say if I were on the opposing side that there is more black on black crime, because again, 1.00

00:23:51.860 black people in the United States are subject to systemic disadvantage and therefore more likely to 0.96

00:23:57.640 be impoverished and therefore more likely to be drawn into gang violence and crime and levels of

00:24:05.540 stress that compromise their ability to think straight and make them extra stressed and extra

00:24:11.640 likely to react to things violently because, and everyone does when they're insecure in terms of

00:24:18.180 food and housing. Yeah. That counts. Right. I think that's fairly, the problem is even when you

00:24:27.020 control, so we're talking about like higher crime rates, this is well studied as well. Even when you

00:24:31.540 control for income, black crime rates are way higher than, than other asset groups in the United States. 0.86

00:24:36.060 No, we can, I guess the argument I would have made as, as someone in opposition about the Republican

00:24:42.480 districts is what they're probably also likely more wealthy and less urban. And you're just going to

00:24:48.080 get lower levels of crime and higher levels of in general income or education in like super wealthy

00:24:55.600 suburban areas. Sorry. What was the last thing you said there? You're going to get lower levels of

00:25:02.040 crime and higher levels of income in wealthy suburban areas. And also the places that are impoverished

00:25:08.940 are more likely to be just white. Simone, Republican districts are poorer on average. I'm pretty sure.

00:25:16.680 Yeah. But I think, so I think if we looked at it, the Republican districts that are racially mixed are

00:25:22.820 probably higher income and the Republican districts that are impoverished are mostly white.

00:25:27.960 if we were to look at the data. I could maybe see this argument. I don't know. To me,

00:25:34.860 this argument seems pretty trying. I'm just trying to steel man this. I mean,

00:25:40.040 this isn't my inborn argument here. This is the thing, right? Like people begin to engage in violence

00:25:51.940 violence for reasons, right? And you can attempt to address those reasons. And I think that the ways

00:25:58.220 that Democrats try to address or not address those reasons, just ignore the problem.

00:26:02.480 Well, yeah. I mean, that's the thing is, is, is if food and housing insecurity are causing these

00:26:06.720 things, putting people into cycles of poverty and food insecurity and housing insecurity by not

00:26:11.200 empowering them to get their own jobs, but rather giving them the bare minimum they need to scrape by.

00:26:16.020 And then occasionally having that bottom out or disappear or not work is only going to entrench

00:26:21.920 them in this cycle. And it makes things worse. I totally agree with you on that.

00:26:27.040 So the other blood libel that is incredibly common on the left, and now they point out with the

00:26:30.900 asthma goal video, they'll point this out about everything. Everyone's saying Charlie Kirk,

00:26:34.120 like encouraged the killing of X population or Y population. There was a lie going around that he

00:26:38.120 encouraged the killing of gay people, right? 1.00

00:26:40.920 Claiming that, uh, you know, queer people are defective and dangerous and, and should be, 1.00

00:26:47.500 uh, be executed. I mean, that's sort of polarizing language that contributes to this environment, 0.98

00:26:52.940 uh, this loss of civility and, and encourages violence directed towards the enemy, whatever the

00:26:59.280 stripe. And we are seeing this from, from both sides.

00:27:02.660 And he was quoting derisively somebody else specifically pointing out when somebody was like,

00:27:07.440 oh, the Bible's all like love and whatever.

00:27:09.400 Yeah. And he's like, well, the Bible also said, you know, throw gay people off roofs or something. 0.98

00:27:13.400 There's a stone gay people. Um, and what he was pointing out there is that the Bible isn't all 1.00

00:27:18.040 sunshines and kittens and everything like that. He was not saying that you should stone gay people, 0.99

00:27:21.900 right? He was saying that these people who want to create this fictionalized God is love stuff, 0.99

00:27:29.140 you know, that, that, that, that may be what you say, but like engage was reality, right? Engage was

00:27:34.640 the book as it exists in the history, as it exists, which is frankly a really,

00:27:39.300 really based thing to say as a Christian, right? So what I'm putting out here is that people will

00:27:45.240 do this, whether it's to asthma gold or him or anyone else everywhere. And I think we on the

00:27:49.940 right need to be way more ferocious on calling out blood libel. And it is, this is a great thing

00:27:56.140 about using the term blood libel. Blood libel doesn't say Jewish blood libel, right? Like the 1.00

00:28:01.300 way the term is constructed is very clear in its meaning. It is lying libel about a group killing

00:28:09.060 another group. Yeah. Plain and simple. Very, very straight. And it's bad to do it to Jewish people 0.99

00:28:15.320 to say that Jewish people kill other people in rituals that they do not have, just as it is bad 0.86

00:28:20.820 to do it to Charlie Kirk because it is being done with the same motivation, the same intent. 0.92

00:28:26.320 Well, it's to create, yeah, you're, you're, or to frame a disliked group as inhuman and monstrous

00:28:35.080 in the end. I'd also note here that it would be pretty good for Jews as well if a large political

00:28:41.100 faction started caring about how bad blood libel was again and applied that not just to themselves,

00:28:46.840 but to any group that was being hit with blood libel. Yeah. So I'll be quicker on the trans stuff 1.00

00:28:51.680 because we go over this so often. UK banned puberty blockers in youth. The numbers, so basically we

00:28:57.740 have a whole country of the national experiment have not statistically risen. The numbers of

00:29:00.600 unaliving have not statistically risen. We found out after Travis Stock was shut down that they had

00:29:06.440 done a study on what, how puberty blockers relate to wanting to unalive yourself and self-harm. And it

00:29:13.860 turned out that it increased it. So it is literally them that are leading to the death of children,

00:29:18.800 but they hid those numbers because, and they were forced to publish them by, by court because the

00:29:24.200 court was like, you can't hide this data, right? Like this is very important that the public knows

00:29:28.720 this. And even within the United States, when they were arguing before the Supreme court, the first

00:29:34.060 trans lawyer, Chase Strangio to ever argue before the Supreme court had to say when pushed on, is there

00:29:40.620 any evidence for this? He said, quote, there is no evidence that gender affirming treatments reduce

00:29:47.880 the S word. He responded clarifying. And he tried to say just, you know, how he tried to weasel out

00:29:54.880 of it, which I think is also important. They said, well, what I'm referring to is there is no evidence

00:29:59.000 in some is that the studies of the treatment reduces completed S word. And the reason for that

00:30:05.400 is completed S thankfully. Oh my gosh, wait, no, he's just, so wait, youth gender transition just makes 0.96

00:30:11.120 you too dumb to actually finish the job. You should watch our video on how it likely lowers IQ pretty 0.99

00:30:16.740 severely. And the main study used to argue it doesn't, was literally done by the head of the

00:30:20.520 W path. They can't even do it right now. Rare, but that's not what he was arguing here. But what's

00:30:26.140 important about this, because I actually think that this is, this is really important. So

00:30:29.720 if what we are seeing is that statistically speaking, the rate of unaliving does not go up

00:30:38.380 after, after transition, right? But trans people who are not allowed to transition report a higher

00:30:46.120 rate of wanting to, it means that this report is a lie. They are doing that thing where you,

00:30:56.660 you're, you're like, I'm going to kill myself if you don't do X. Yeah. If you, if you leave me,

00:31:01.480 I'll do it. Yeah. They're doing that to their parents, to society, and they know they don't mean it.

00:31:06.500 They're just acting like actual psychopaths. Yeah. Oh, they're not even psychopaths. I mean, 0.61

00:31:15.000 I, I, I can relate to this as someone who's become hyper fixated on things. Sometimes you just get to

00:31:20.920 this point where you're like, I, I, I have to have this thing. It is the only thing that matters.

00:31:28.400 I must have it. And if I don't have it, I would rather not exist. Yeah, I can see that. So yeah,

00:31:34.100 I don't, but, but I mean, the, the, the normalization of that desire is part of the

00:31:39.360 problem here. The, the, the, the, well, I mean, that's why we have a different perspective than

00:31:43.520 them on whether or not the Dutch protocol is the right treatment for gender dysphoria.

00:31:47.920 And, and I think that as a society, we're getting closer and closer and closer to being like, okay,

00:31:51.420 no, but I think that we need to be just like a lot louder on this stuff. When somebody comes at you

00:31:56.700 and they say, or you hear, because this is where it's much more likely to be you as a person are

00:32:03.160 not going to deal with people saying this sort of thing. They're going to say it about somebody else.

00:32:06.200 They're going to say it about an influencer. They're going to say it about Charlie Kirk.

00:32:09.340 They're going to say, and, and for so long on the right, it was just normal to not bite their head

00:32:16.460 off and be like, that is a lie. And it's the exact type of lie that got him killed. And it is a lie

00:32:21.360 that you are knowing and not a lie. Sorry, we can't use the word lie. That is blood libel. And it is the

00:32:25.800 exact blood libel that got him killed. And blood libel is called again, blood libel because you

00:32:31.200 are lying about another group, murdering a group in order to dehumanize them with the goal of

00:32:36.560 stripping. And we've seen it. There was this great thing in California recently where one of the ladies 1.00

00:32:41.180 running for governor, um, was asked by a reporter who she then assaults. How would I need them in 0.88

00:32:47.280 order to win, man? Well, unless you think you're going to get 60% of the vote, you think you'll get 60%

00:32:53.200 all the, everybody who did not vote for Trump will vote for you. That's what you're saying.

00:32:56.800 In a general election. Yes. If it is me versus a Republican, I think that I will win the people

00:33:02.780 who did not vote for Trump. What if it's you versus another Democrat? I don't intend that to be the

00:33:06.280 case. So how do you not intend that to be the case? Well, to those voters. Okay. So, so you,

00:33:13.260 I don't want to keep doing this. I'm going to call it. Thank you.

00:33:15.700 You're not going to do the interview with us. Nope. Not like this. I'm not,

00:33:20.980 not with seven follow-ups to every single question you ask. Every other candidate has

00:33:25.080 answered our follow-ups. I don't care. I don't care.

00:33:27.020 Her numbers have dropped, thankfully, because she had the long history of this. She, she threw 1.00

00:33:30.400 boiling water on her husband, boiling potatoes. Scalding mashed potatoes, I think.

00:33:36.080 Yeah. So anyway, really horrifying woman who somehow was in the lead to be the Democratic governor of 1.00

00:33:40.740 San Francisco, California. Yeah. But they were just asking her like, well, what about the people

00:33:46.980 who voted for Trump? Like, what are you going to do for them? And she's like, I don't need them.

00:33:50.640 Like, basically they don't matter to me. And they, they are not relevant as human beings to me.

00:33:57.200 Right. Like I don't actually serve them. They are subhuman. And you see this so commonly throughout

00:34:01.980 parts of the left at this point. And this is a mindset that they've been able to develop

00:34:06.680 because it has become normalized to use blood libel in their community without pushing back. And I

00:34:11.580 think we need to say, we push back at this point going forwards. We need to, because, and I, and I

00:34:16.700 say this, and you, Simone, you hear this as somebody who's probably more even minded than me. You'd argue

00:34:22.120 that probably every mainstream Democratic political figure has used blood libel. Or would you say that?

00:34:28.080 Like, it's just a totally normal thing to do on the left to say he's killing X.

00:34:33.880 I think that discounts the really high number of actually fairly normal, highly localized state and

00:34:44.160 local politicians in the United States. But mainstream politicians, I think, are more likely

00:34:50.300 to be tied into these, these falsities. Yeah. And I think that it's, it's, it's good to be able to

00:34:57.360 grab words that they know why they shouldn't do it. And if they're like, well, don't use that term,

00:35:01.060 that that's bad because of how it hurt the Jewish people. You can be like, okay, break it down for

00:35:05.180 me. Break it down for me. Why is blood libel bad? Because it is used to dehumanize other populations

00:35:13.780 so that violence can be committed against them by lying about them, killing people. That is why

00:35:19.080 what we were supposed to learn from that. We apparently haven't learned. Okay. What we were

00:35:26.040 supposed to learn from the stigmatization of that. And you're like, well, you know, but,

00:35:30.880 but Jews, but Jews, no, no, no, no. And Jews will tell you this today if they're like the sane ones, 1.00

00:35:36.420 not the far progressive, like wokey ones. Jews shouldn't be treated as different than other 0.83

00:35:40.540 populations. This leads to negative things, right? If something is bad to do to Jews,

00:35:46.680 it's bad to do to everyone. Jews don't get some special list of, well, you can't do this to Jews, 0.74

00:35:54.040 but you can do it to anyone else and it's fine. You know, we learn these things about Jewish

00:35:59.560 populations because they are relevant to all populations. And what I actually really like

00:36:06.560 about this and pulling out this idea here, because it can turn on his head, the very way that they used

00:36:13.100 to be able to say to us, your actions are leading to death and they were lying, whether it's around 0.70

00:36:18.040 police officers killing black people disproportionately, or whether it's around, 0.97

00:36:21.740 you know, gender transition leading, leading to death. And they're like, you're killing kids by 1.00

00:36:26.340 doing this. You're doing, you know, you're, you're killing people by doing this. You're 0.95

00:36:29.480 ex is we now get to pull the exact uno reverse card. Actually that very thing that you just did,

00:36:36.460 that you just said to me leads to people dying and is a lie. And I can go over the data with

00:36:42.980 you or, or you could admit that you just don't care. Your goal is to dehumanize your political

00:36:51.220 opponents so that they will be killed or otherwise stripped of their rights. 0.92

00:36:55.980 Mm. See, you like, you also enjoy the richness of this comparison because it once again points

00:37:03.740 out the hypocrisy of a major progressive strategic ideological point.

00:37:11.340 You just said, I shouldn't be saying something because it could lead to people dying. And now

00:37:15.660 I'm saying, but provably what you're saying can lead to people dying and is not true.

00:37:19.840 Mm.

00:37:21.340 So if you believe that because it could lead to people dying means that I should be shamed for

00:37:26.620 saying it and should stop saying it, then you need to live by your own logic and do the same.

00:37:31.560 Now that you are familiar with the data that had been hidden from you.

00:37:35.640 Yeah.

00:37:37.840 Oof. Yeah. No, that's it's, it's rich. It's rich. It's hypocritical. It's, it's, it's a bad look.

00:37:45.580 And yeah, I can get why you, you like putting it out. Here's our scrunchie, scrunchie man,

00:37:50.840 by the way.

00:37:51.480 And I'd love to see it become normalized. And I think that it's something that,

00:37:55.720 and by the way, if anyone's like, well, as a Jew, I find it offensive. You say that. And I say, 0.97

00:38:00.700 well, as a non-Jew, I find it offensive that you think that Jews should get some sort of

00:38:05.440 different treatment, that something's unethical when it's done to Jews, but not to anyone else.

00:38:10.980 You know, what are you saying as a Jew, you know, sorry, as a non-Jew, I'm saying you shouldn't 1.00

00:38:16.620 be dehumanizing me. You shouldn't say that I deserve less rights than you.

00:38:19.560 Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, we, we've also had people recently sent to us like Maui protests and,

00:38:28.140 and Maori protests in New Zealand where they're, they're specifically basically arguing for

00:38:35.340 continued discrimination because they want to continue to have sort of different and special

00:38:40.740 rights. So, yeah, I mean, it's, it's, it's difficult to have groups that say that they

00:38:47.560 advocate for equality when they also distinctly are fighting for differential or separate treatment,

00:38:54.580 but we have a lot of that. Yeah.

00:38:59.780 But again, I know you hate this, but it just comes back to, for me, external versus internal

00:39:05.080 locuses of control or loci, loci of control, that, that they think that it is equal to have

00:39:14.260 quotas and minimums and special treatment because external factors render them unequal. Whereas

00:39:23.440 the different internal locus of control frame of mind is such that, yes, we're all born unequal,

00:39:30.100 but we should be given equal opportunity. And that doesn't mean favoring one group or giving

00:39:34.980 one group privileges. It means making an open playing field and the black community thing that

00:39:42.860 you're talking about. If they're like, well, why are black still in poverty? You know, they had

00:39:45.560 everything started taking from them. They started with nothing. As I always point out, Japanese 1.00

00:39:49.320 Americans had everything taken for them much more recently during the internment and now out earn 0.53

00:39:54.460 white people. So how are they out earning white people? Right? Like I know, no. How are they out 0.76

00:39:58.900 earning white people? If, if it turns out that you can just take everything from a group and then 0.77

00:40:02.220 they're never going to be able to get back up. Like, how is it that the Japanese facing more recent 0.99

00:40:08.020 discrimination are out earning white? And I'm not saying that they're earning the same as white 0.89

00:40:13.040 people today. I'm not saying they're earning less. I'm saying, how are they out earning white 0.95

00:40:16.700 people today? It's because cultural differences lead to differences in outcomes. Yes. Historic

00:40:22.220 discrimination can play a role in black. Sorry. And Japanese would be even more wealthy if they hadn't 1.00

00:40:27.420 experienced that discrimination, but it is overcomable. Yeah, absolutely. No, it's, it's,

00:40:35.980 it's, I like the contextualization. I think I'll be using it. I appreciate your explaining blood

00:40:41.000 libel to me in the first place because I just haven't been curious enough.

00:40:45.780 A lot of people are going to worry about that. Like when you point about being racist against white

00:40:49.320 people, you can't use blood libel against white people. And then you just have to explain what the

00:40:52.700 word means. And definitionally, yes, you can. And that's why we learned not to do this. Anyway,

00:40:59.140 love you, Simone. For dinner tonight, I'd love some rendang. Okay. Actually, I think I might

00:41:06.300 have thought some out. There was, there was curry in the freezer that I was like, I think this is

00:41:09.660 rendang. So can I put that over rice for you after? Whatever it is, I'll have it. Okay. Thanks.

00:41:16.360 Yeah. Cause I thought it out and I want to simmer it. And obviously if it's really bad, it's really

00:41:21.960 fast for me to make my rendang. So either way, you'll get something delicious tonight.

00:41:26.420 And feel free to simmer it in coconut milk because I think that rendang often needs more or olive oil.

00:41:31.540 I'm not sure if it's rendang though. So it depends on how, how viscous it is.

00:41:35.580 If it's really dry, sure. I'll add coconut milk or whatever seems to be most appropriate given

00:41:40.760 whatever it turns out to be. I know I'm better at labeling things in the freezer, but I was not for

00:41:46.000 the spell. So paying the price. All right. How can I help you tonight?

00:41:50.280 Carry Octavian down to the kitchen for me. All right. Will do. 0.94

00:41:53.880 Thank you. Love you. Love you too.

00:41:58.200 So what are we looking at Octavian?

00:41:59.940 I'm looking at the turtles.

00:42:02.080 No, the way they have holes. I heard that these are dinosaur turtles.

00:42:07.740 Who, where did you hear that?

00:42:09.840 I heard that when I was a baby.

00:42:12.520 I don't think I ever told you that.

00:42:14.100 No.

00:42:14.540 I'm looking for real.

00:42:18.580 If you want to go up.
