Candace Cameron Bure reveals why she thinks modern feminism is a social cancer that metastasizes within unhappy women, and why they hate women who don t have kids. Plus, the first ever trans congressman who has been banned from going into female restrooms is now at work, and apparently this news that women are women and men are men has sent shockwaves throughout the Hill. But first, I am fired up today, after I accidentally discovered that another feminist, no, not Taylor Swift or Blake Lively, but this time, Anne Hathaway is slated to partake in what can only be described as industrial-scale bullying against Hannah Nealman of Ballerina Farm. We re going to talk about that, plus, congressional mayhem! Plus, we re talking about why Taylor Swift is so loved because she s an icon and why she s not allowed to have any children. We all have to be turning into kind of like un-women. If you re a traditional housewife, you re not supposed to have anything. We have to normalize being abnormal, right? That s what feminists want us to be. And if you don t want to have kids, you can t have anything, you have to have a glass jar. You can t be a lesbian lesbian. You have to take your uterus and put it in the glass jar so you could never get pregnant. You ve got to be the opposite of a woman. You could never be a woman if you decided to have your uterus. You re not have any kids. You don t get to have an icon because you ve got knocked out of your uterus because you could not get pregnant, you could be a girl. That s not have a uterus. and you could only be a glass jar so you ve never get to be a woman right? to be an . or a woman who s not a woman that s not yet because she could never have a baby. or she s a but she s . . . so why not have her own glass jar to get pregnant? ? what s not having a uterus? is she a woman or in a glass at all? and can t get pregnant is a woman to get a baby? has a uterus or is she not allowed to have children? or can she not have it?
00:00:00.000All right, guys. Happy Wednesday. I woke up to such a weird message from my PR guy, Mitchell. He said that Newsweek had reached out to him wanting to know if I had any comment regarding another post from Ms. Tina Knowles. Apparently, Beyonce's hive of fans believes that I am being threatened by her and Solange. They think that Beyonce's sister is going to beat me up in an elevator. Is my life at risk? We're going to talk about that.
00:00:23.860Plus, congressional mayhem. Also in the news, the first ever trans congressman who has been now banned from going into female restrooms that is now at work, at least. And apparently this news that women are women and men are men has sent shockwaves throughout the Hill.
00:00:40.460But first, I am fired up today. Truly fired up. After I accidentally discovered that another feminist, no, not Taylor Swift or Blake Lively, but this time Anne Hathaway, is slated to partake in what can only be described as industrial scale bullying.
00:00:57.260Her target? Hannah Nealman of Ballerina Farm. I don't know why people just can't leave this woman alone and allow her to bake bread and love her family.
00:01:06.540So we're going to speak about the fact that there is a war, a war on stay-at-home moms. They really, really detest women that love their children. All that coming up on Candace.
00:01:27.260All right. So where should we begin? I guess we should begin with just the blanket statement that I hate modern feminism. If you're new here, I'm a very proud anti-feminist.
00:01:39.460I view it as really just a social cancer that metastasizes within unhappy women. They just become so angry and so bitter when they see women that don't live according to their mandates.
00:01:50.620And what are their mandates? Well, the feminist mandate today is that women should be just like men. We should want to be like men. We should fight our biology. Don't worry about having kids.
00:01:59.340We should climb the corporate ladder and exhaust ourselves doing everything or choose not to have children at all.
00:02:05.040I would say if you really had to put it into one sentence, modern feminists believe that we should normalize being abnormal, right?
00:02:14.760Let's normalize being abnormal. That really is the clear mandate.
00:02:17.980So anyways, I have been finishing up, going through edits on my book and was really wanting to include this chapter.
00:02:23.720I'm writing a book about modern feminism and how much I hate it.
00:02:26.960And I was wrapping it all up, recognizing that really this last election was sort of like, this is the test here.
00:02:36.160Like, are modern feminists going to win? Because that was really the entire platform of Kamala Harris.
00:02:40.840Like, vote for me because otherwise you won't be able to abort your children and she's a woman and therefore you should like her and support her.
00:02:47.040There was nothing else there, no substance, no intelligence.
00:02:49.220And if she had won, it would have proven to be a major score, a major win for modern feminism.
00:02:56.920Or are traditional women going to bite back? And I think traditional women bit back.
00:03:01.680And so I was kind of unpacking that earlier in the year there was this huge scandal.
00:03:05.560So in case you're not from America, you probably still have heard of her.
00:03:10.160She now has more than 10 million followers on social media.
00:03:13.680The first time that we've seen a traditional woman achieve that sort of social status ever.
00:03:19.780And so right around about like 8 million followers earlier this year, suddenly the modern feminists,
00:03:26.400like people who sip their lattes and write articles about how deep they are because they've realized they don't have to live differently and non-traditionally.
00:03:33.480People that don't work with their hands began paying attention to her and they needed to sort of problematize her existence.
00:04:08.900She's agreed not to have any children.
00:04:10.100It's part of the reason, by the way, Taylor Swift is so loved is because she's really emblematic of this modern feminist movement, dating, weaving in and out of relationships, has not settled down and gotten married, but sings songs, really kind of mass scale bullies the men that she's dated who aren't able to speak up against her psychotic fandom that attacks all of them and views men as always the problem, all 34 of them.
00:04:31.800Like, they're just like, there's no way Taylor has done anything wrong.
00:05:23.440So it was sort of nice to suddenly get a huge departure from this and get a woman that's just posting about her husband who's a hog farmer.
00:05:34.340And plus, she's doing ballet moves, hence the name Ballerina Farm.
00:05:37.580She received her degree from Juilliard, the prestigious Juilliard school in Manhattan.
00:05:42.280And she was a ballet dancer, and then her and her husband decided that they wanted to get into farming.
00:05:47.560So she wears these, like, muddied boots, and she does ballet moves in her kitchen, which is always kind of a mess, but, like, a perfect mess.
00:05:56.460Like, really beautiful kind of a mess with kids all over the place, baby on her hip.
00:06:00.440It's just nice to get a break from boobs and ass.
00:06:14.300And it starts with a young woman named Caroline Burke, who on TikTok just in 2023, the end of 2023, became obsessed withāand when I say obsessed, she published a 36-part series discussing trad wives, discussing Ballerina Farm, and discussing the rise and everything that was wrong with trad culture.
00:06:37.300So I'm going to show you a clip of her kind of saying that her fame can only be attributed to the fact that women are losing their rights in America.
00:06:49.280I have been quoted in a lot of things in the last few weeks, which has been such a funny left turn in my life.
00:06:54.040But in one of the Substack articles that I was quoted on, what I read was that Ballerina Farm had 1 million followers in 2022 and has gained 7.5 million followers since then.
00:07:06.200Which means that when I said kind of offhandedly that I thought that this was connected to Roe v. Wade, I was actually completely correct.
00:07:16.400You cannot tell me that it is accidental that in the two years where we lost more reproductive rights than in decades previously, all of these trad wives have been gaining insane traction online.
00:07:29.260Also, I'm sorry about the bedhead. I'm just really excited and I can't wait.
00:07:33.860Whether you think that culture and media are the same thing, or culture drives media, or media drives culture, or media drives politics, or politics drives media, you have to acknowledge that they're in this constant dance with one another.
00:07:46.340And we are watching these accounts gain millions of followers at a time when women don't have access to control over their own bodies.
00:07:56.240Why do we think we're following this woman who has happily chosen to procreate as much as humanly possible, who is in her early 30s, and has 8, 9, I can't even keep track, that many children already, and has them happily and has the support to make it possible, to make it look enjoyable?
00:08:15.940I think it's because even the most progressive of us are so afraid of what's happening right now, that we are subconsciously desperate to see a sign that it's possible to live in this world and still find joy.
00:08:28.920Most of the women my age that I know are terrified of having children because they don't want to deal with the immense financial burden.
00:08:36.660We are terrified to have miscarriages, we are terrified to have to pay for childcare,
00:08:41.160and we are also at a time period where, statistically, men are going to start getting promoted over us at a much higher pace than previously.
00:08:48.200It is not accidental that all of this is happening and that Ballerina Farm is gaining so many followers.
00:08:54.980When you ask me why do I care, this is why.
00:08:58.940This is why I care. This is why it matters.
00:09:02.140It's all connected, and it's all pointing towards some pretty clear signs that the women are not okay.
00:09:08.760I follow that logic, guys. Does that make sense to you?
00:09:35.260What she's saying is that if you're watching this woman bake bread and you're enjoying this content, it's because deep down you are worried and apprehensive about the future.
00:09:44.820And you're so scared that you're thinking, am I going to have to live like this?
00:09:48.520So you're following her because it's really just a deep-seated fear that you have that now you're going to have to enjoy and like children and family.
00:09:58.320Ah, modern feminism. Absolutely love that.
00:10:43.160The fall of Rome actually could be attributed to the exact opposite.
00:10:46.760When society moved away from tradition and everybody became gay, I just don't know how you're able to connect Ballerina Farm to the fall of Rome.
00:12:09.180And, like, you might actually get that transcendent, empathetic experience just by, like, reading works of fiction by people who aren't like you.
00:12:18.000And the best part is that fiction usually doesn't tell you that women have to be subservient.
00:12:23.380And that you get to kill people who don't have the same beliefs as you.
00:12:26.740Anyways, if you're a Christian and you love the Bible, no shade to you.
00:12:53.940Don't be insulted, ladies and gentlemen.
00:12:57.620Honestly, the real issue is the reason why you like that Bible so much is because you just haven't made it through the Harry Potter series.
00:13:04.600You just haven't made it through fiction and experienced transcendence.
00:13:10.060Like, when I got to really thinking about the complexities of Lord Voldemort, I, these Bible girlies just don't realize it has so much more to offer.
00:13:21.060When you can finally say Hermione Granger and you pronounce it right, you experience this moment of transcendence.
00:13:27.840And so I've recognized that the majority of you are just basically illiterate.
00:13:31.020And that's why you like your Bible, I guess.
00:13:34.960I would love to get her in a room, by the way, like with my husband, who has like a master's in theology from Oxford and just have her basically pitch to him that he's illiterate.
00:13:42.840And that's why he loves his Bible so much.
00:14:23.860I do want to transcend, to think about extramarital affairs and how they can really bring me to the next level of a sexual awakening.
00:14:35.480Anyway, so this young woman experienced, I should add here, what can only be described as nirvana when the Times did that incredibly invasive piece on Hannah Nealman, right, in Ballerina Farm.
00:14:47.020I'm not kidding when I say that she was happy about that piece.
00:14:49.800I remember people were outraged because we all looked at it and said, why are you bullying Hannah Nealman and Ballerina Farm?
00:15:02.580And she was looking for a way to make it seem as though, I know everything looks amazing on Instagram, but actually, Hannah Nealman is suffering.
00:15:08.760And as I said, this Caroline Burke really seemed to enjoy that.
00:15:12.580Here's what she had to say about that piece.
00:15:14.960I wanted to follow up on that topic because a few days ago, a new profile of Ballerina Farm came out.
00:15:20.420It was written by the writer Megan Agnew, and it was for the Times.
00:15:23.680And it really illustrated the point that I was trying to make six months ago.
00:15:27.260The point being that someone can be the face of a brand.
00:15:29.980They can represent it, but they're not necessarily working alone, and they are not necessarily calling the shots.
00:15:35.040On the working alone front, this profile dispelled the idea that Ballerina Farm is some home-run family operation.
00:15:42.320They don't have nannies, the writer maintains, but they do have a weekly cleaner.
00:15:46.980They have a full-time homeschool teacher who watches the kids and teaches them a Mormon Christian curriculum.
00:15:51.900And they have full-time farm employees, not to mention a creative director for their website.
00:15:56.080And then there's the question of who's calling the shots for this brand of Ballerina Farm.
00:16:00.220Not even going to answer this question, I'm just going to read you a series of quotes from this article,
00:16:04.620which you should read in full, and then we'll have a better idea of who's calling the shots
00:16:08.420when it comes to building the Ballerina Farm brand and the ideals and lifestyles that they claim to promote.
00:22:18.740You're acting the part of a person who cares about women while you have decided to take part in mocking a woman who has done nothing to you.
00:22:26.880She's done, Hannah Nealman has done nothing.
00:22:28.720She is not a state to political position.
00:22:30.540She's literally farming and raising her kids.
00:22:33.380And they keep pretending like there is something complicated behind it.
00:22:37.340Well, did you guys know that she has farmhands?
00:23:04.740I thought every day she was waking up and doing that all by herself, that she was running an entire dairy farm and the entire business all by herself.
00:23:28.060Everybody should love who they love unless they love somebody traditionally, unless it's a woman loving a man, right?
00:23:34.700Unless it's a Christian loving another Christian and committing themselves to the Lord and committing themselves to their family and feeling like they are blessed by the Lord when they're able to do that and simultaneously create a business out of that.
00:23:49.960That is why people are turning and tuning into Ballerina Farm, because what a wonderful thing to be able to do what you love with your family.
00:24:37.960I am just so shocked that Anne Hathaway would participate in this project and not think that we're going to see right through this.
00:24:42.760So I wanted you guys to be aware that Ballerina Farm is on the brink of being bullied by an A-list actress who will look you in the face and tell you how much she fights for the rights of women.
00:24:57.260Oh, actually, I do want to also add this because in my book, I was theorizing that at the core of the modern feminist movement are women that are just unhappy with the decisions of their life.
00:25:08.000And so it's like what made Caroline Burke become so obsessed with Hannah Nealman in this way that she published a 36-part series trying to tear her apart and understand her.
00:25:17.700And I think she gave it away in an Instagram post.
00:25:19.800She published this when it was announced that her book was going to be turned into a movie on her own Instagram page.
00:25:26.480She writes the bottom there that she spent most of 2023 wondering if I had missed the moment with my own life.
00:25:33.260For a decade, I had been trying to become a novelist, yet all I'd really succeeded in doing, it seemed, was to accumulate an impressive pile of false starts and missed opportunities.
00:25:44.060Didn't know what my life would look like if I stopped.
00:25:46.260Didn't know if I wanted to be a mother.
00:25:47.520If I could stomach the mental precarity of starting a journey so fully defined by ego obliteration at the same exact time I was living through complete dissolution of the identity I'd imagined for myself.
00:25:58.420It felt, if I'm being honest, like some part of me was dying or maybe was already dead.
00:26:02.680So what she did in 2023 as she was going through this death and realizing that she spent so much time dedicated to her career,
00:26:10.660was she then focused her sights on Hannah Nealman, who chose the opposite thing, who chose to get married when she was really young.
00:26:17.520And finishing her last year of school and decided to dedicate herself to her family.
00:26:21.540And she poured her creative pursuits into projecting onto Hannah Nealman what she felt that she didn't accomplish in her own life, which was having children.
00:26:30.120And what I want to say is that maybe this Amazon thing becomes a success and maybe feminists love it and they give it an award, but it's nothing like hugging your own children at night.
00:26:41.680I really, really do believe that hating Hannah Nealman is not going to make you happy at night.
00:26:48.080Anyways, you guys want to remind you about Hallow with that said, and speaking about Christians and how much we are hated for absolutely no reason.

00:27:57.180All right, let's get into this congressional story because I guess people are just so shocked, so shocked and so outraged.
00:28:04.700Because we are barreling towards the future, and in the future, you can be whatever you want.
00:28:08.740All right, so let me tell you the story of a person named Timothy McBride.
00:28:12.780Timothy McBride was born in Wilmington, Delaware, home of the Bidens.
00:28:18.140Timothy's father was a lawyer, and his mom was a guidance counselor.
00:28:22.260I cannot tell you how many times when you look into the story of transgendered people, there's a guidance counselor and a therapist in the background.
00:28:28.540Anyways, while a young adult man, Timothy became very active in politics and simultaneously became very close with the Biden family.
00:28:37.500He was actually a staffer for Beau Biden in 2010.
00:28:41.540That's Joe Biden's late son who sadly passed away of cancer.
00:28:45.660And a year later, Timothy transitioned and became Sarah McBride.
00:28:50.540Now we have Sarah McBride, and Sarah carried on a relationship with the Biden family, most recently working in the White House Office of Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, actively working on, yes, you guessed it, LGBTQ issues.
00:29:06.580Recently, Sarah ran and successfully won a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, which made Sarah the first trans person on the Hill.
00:29:16.700Obviously, this caused a bit of a reaction, a reaction, namely because the females on the Hill suddenly had to start thinking about this in a way they hadn't before, which is to say, wait a second, do I have to share public restroom space with Sarah?
00:29:33.060Because I'm not comfortable with that. Particularly Nancy Mace from South Carolina began kicking up a real fuss, insisting that Congress make a real effort to ensure that biological men would not be permitted into female restrooms.
00:30:04.440Every day Americans go to work with people who have life journeys different than their own and engage with them.
00:30:11.620Respectfully, I hope members of Congress can muster that same kindness, followed by,
00:30:16.700This is a blatant attempt from far right-wing extremists to distract from the fact that they have no real solutions to what Americans are facing.
00:30:26.460We should be focused on bringing down the cost of housing, health care, and child care, not manufacturing culture wars.
00:30:34.580Delawareans sent me here to make the American dream more affordable and accessible, and that's what I'm focused on.
00:30:39.480Now, to be clear, I feel like if that's what you were focused on, bringing down the cost of living, maybe when you were working in Biden's White House, I don't know.
00:30:46.180I feel like that's what a lot of things got very expensive, but don't listen to me.
00:30:51.860Republicans are only caring about this bathroom stuff because they're distracting from the fact that the economy, which the Democrats have been in control for the last four years, is an absolute disaster.
00:31:01.480And I can tell you that Nancy Mace did not take to that kindly, first and foremost, being called an extremist.
00:31:10.480This is what Nancy Mace had to say to reporters about that.
00:31:16.160If that being a feminist makes me an extremist, I'm totally here for it.
00:31:20.920Is this effort in response to Congresswoman McBride coming to Congress?
00:31:37.320I have PTSD from the abuse I've suffered at the hands of a man.
00:31:40.680And I know how vulnerable women and girls are in private spaces.
00:31:44.820So I'm absolutely 100% going to stand in the way of any man who wants to be in a women's restroom, in our locker rooms, in our changing rooms.
00:31:54.640I will be there fighting you every step of the way.
00:31:57.820Nancy Mace also doubled down in a tweet, writing this.
00:32:03.380Oh, you thought threatening me would silence me?
00:32:05.300No, I just doubled down and filed a new bill to protect women and girls across the entire country on all federal property everywhere.
00:32:12.860So initially, Nancy Mace was just offering a bill that would prevent men from entering female restrooms, biological men from entering female restrooms on the Capitol.
00:32:21.980Now, Nancy Mace is saying this should be everywhere on federal property, anywhere throughout the United States.
00:32:27.980And that is exactly the bill that Nancy Mace put forth.
00:32:31.000And this is now being supported by the speaker, Mike Johnson.
00:32:36.440Here is what he had to say regarding the topic.
00:32:39.860I just want to make a statement for all of you here and be very clear.
00:32:44.400I was asked a question this morning at the leadership gaggle, and I rejected the premise because the answer is so obvious.
00:32:50.620For anybody who doesn't know my well-established record on this issue, let me be unequivocally clear.
00:32:57.280A man is a man, and a woman is a woman.
00:33:19.240I've stood there my whole life, and those are facts.
00:33:21.400It really is just astounding if you just pause and think about the fact that this is an issue in 2024, that somebody actually has to come out, a leader in government, and say, let me make this very clear.
00:33:54.060And we've got people that are like, well, let me explain to you something.
00:33:56.640Like, we have to explain something so basic that was just not an issue at all when I was growing up.
00:34:03.000It's just such a new issue, and yet it's suddenly become a persistent issue.
00:34:06.860And that really tells you the power of culture when people just start pretending that they're outraged about something, that it makes entirely no sense.
00:34:14.920And then you eventually get politicians that begin taking this matter seriously.
00:34:18.520And there's no better group of people to look to when you speak about impacting culture in the wrong direction than the ladies on The View.
00:34:26.220Here is what they had to say about Republicans saying that men are men and women are women.
00:35:41.560I hope that one day I do find you in that woman's bathroom and I grab your ratty looking hair and drag your face down to the floor while I repeatedly bash it in until the blood's everywhere and you're dead.
00:36:17.340Anyways, you guys, reminding you very quickly, this episode is sponsored by Nimi Skin Care, which is my favorite skincare brand out there.

00:37:11.620Okay, weird phone call I received this morning.
00:38:28.920And then Lindsay said, oh, she's going to slap Candace in the elevator, too.
00:38:35.100Again, like, I don't know if I'm just not reading in between the lines.
00:38:37.260Because when I saw it, I was just like, I think it's just a photo of her daughter.
00:38:40.040I think it's a daughter of a photo of her and Solange.
00:38:41.900And they're wearing Gucci at the LACMA Gala or whatever.
00:38:46.300So I don't know what subliminal message I missed.
00:38:49.400Maybe the beehive is getting text messages and they speak a different code.
00:38:53.420But I didn't give them an answer in Newsweek because I was just like,
00:38:56.540I don't know what we're even speaking about anymore.
00:38:58.040And in case you're wondering why people are saying that and you missed like the biggest,
00:39:02.380kind of most, one of the more iconic things that ever happened in terms of Beyonce's public life,
00:39:07.580they're referencing the elevator attack.
00:39:10.980In case you forgot this, in 2014 at the Met Gala, the after party was hosted at the Boom Boom Room atop the Standard Hotel in New York City.
00:39:19.060And Solange, Beyonce's sister, and Jay-Z and Beyonce and their security guard were exiting this after party and they got into the elevator.
00:39:30.180And it's a very short elevator ride from the top of the Boom Boom Room, top of the Standard Hotel, to the bottom to greet the paparazzi.
00:39:37.240And during this ride, Solange just starts beating the living hell out of Jay-Z.
00:42:57.920I wanted to do a little update on the story.
00:42:59.280First and foremost, because today is his funeral that's being held in Amersham, England with his family.
00:43:06.100And the One Direction bandmates are going to be in attendance.
00:43:08.820The funeral is private, but there are a ton of fans that are gathering outside.
00:43:12.860Now, reminding you, he was just 31 years old, and he died after he fell from a balcony at an Argentinian hotel.
00:43:20.740He was down there visiting or going to go see another one of the former One Direction, his former One Direction bandmates perform.
00:43:29.260After the autopsy was performed, we knew that this was going to be drug-related.
00:43:32.540He had been in and out of rehab throughout his young life.
00:43:35.360And it turned out that, yes, he was on cocaine, crack, ketamine, ecstasy, and a form of crystal meth.
00:43:41.060All of that was found in his system at the time of death.
00:43:43.460But I was really struck by learning that three people have now been charged in his death, okay?
00:43:50.540So you have one person named Brian Piaz Pais, who was a former waiter at one of the hotel restaurants who has been identified by the Argentinian authorities as a person somehow involved in the death.
00:44:03.620He claims that he met Liam Payne at the restaurant he was working at.
00:44:27.020And that Payne asked him for a drug dealer's contact.
00:44:30.320And then he claimed that at that time, Payne, who was using a fake Instagram account, state in contact with him for several days via just Instagram messaging, agreeing to meet up a second time on October 13th.
00:44:46.540Something intimate happened and said that they were, again, doing cocaine, smoking weed, saying that Payne then asked to hang out with him for a third time and showed up at his home.
00:44:56.740But he rejected him because he had work.
00:44:58.820So basically, the authorities arrested him.
00:45:01.920They also arrested another guy who is Payne's friend, Roger Norez, accused that guy of abandoning him after failing to inform anyone of Payne's drug relapse.
00:45:13.120And I just want to say, I don't agree with this.
00:45:17.660The idea of suddenly witch hunting people that are involved in the circle or in the immediate orbit of someone after they have a drug-related death, to me, seems remarkably unfair.
00:45:30.620And I think it removes responsibility from the individual who passed away.
00:45:35.720Obviously, we are learning as more things come out, whether it's from his ex-fiancee, that this was a very troubled person who struggled with drugs.
00:45:43.220And to then say, OK, well, your life is over.
00:45:50.320And one of the things that always strikes me about once they start hunting for drug dealers and seeing who was around and what was your responsibility, you should have informed us that he was having a relapse.
00:46:01.100The thing that I always realize and that drives me insane is that they will put a drug dealer in prison when somebody dies of a drug overdose, but they will never go after, like, big pharma in the same way.
00:46:14.460Like, big pharma only has to pay fines when they get, like, all of America addicted to opioids or methamphetamine or cocaine by prescribing them drugs that are way too strong when they have, like, a toothache.
00:46:24.420And then those people turn to the streets and turn to small-time drug dealers.
00:46:28.580But the big people that get people addicted are always ignored.
00:46:32.680And Liam Payne did not become addicted to drugs in Argentina.
00:46:35.900He had not become addicted to drugs when he met this waiter.
00:46:38.840And so now this waiter is going to be fighting for his life.
00:46:41.660I'm not saying that he was responsible, but to be thinking that you're being charged in relation to this death when he jumped off the balcony just seems unfair.
00:46:50.520I'm sure this is a lot for his family to deal with.
00:46:52.840I'm sure it's a lot for the One Direction bandmates to deal with.
00:46:54.940It certainly has been a lot for the fans of One Direction people to deal with publicly.
00:46:58.760But we have to start holding people responsible, especially someone that's that age, 31 years old, for their own actions or their own inaction.
00:47:07.620So I just am not fond of seeing everyone looking to problematize every person but the person who was living the actual life they wanted to live.
00:47:17.320And I say this as someone who has had drugs in the family.
00:47:19.380If you have never had someone in your family that is drug addicted, it is a demon that you cannot even explain.
00:47:26.960When I say they should bring back that show, A&E's Addiction, I think it was called, or whatever it was, when they really show you they will go through intervention, pardon, that they will sell their own children for a high.
00:47:47.460And the lengths that they will go through for the next high is absolutely incredible.
00:47:51.980And some people lose their lives that way, but you don't then turn around and say, well, it's everybody else's fault except for that person.
00:47:58.220That's my personal perspective, and I may be reading into that my own experiences of people that have been on drugs, but that's my belief.
00:48:06.620Anyway, you guys, let's get into some of your comments, see what you guys are thinking about all of this.
00:48:44.700They said that she received $5 million.
00:48:46.340Well, if we can confirm that Megan Thee Stallion got paid $5 million, then it's going to seem a little bit suspect if Beyonce still doesn't confirm or not confirm, and all we have is her mother going off on Instagram, pretending that it's fake news because it hasn't been confirmed yet.
00:48:59.320Sarah writes, Candice, haven't you realized the so-called beehive are paid bots?
00:49:04.120No, but I have recently realized that there are paid bots on Instagram.
00:49:08.240I didn't realize that could be a thing on Instagram, but until I got like a bot explosion regarding an entirely different topic, and then I realized that they were all connected because you get like 3,000 comments in one minute, and they're all kind of saying the exact same thing, slightly changed.
00:49:24.080I would be surprised to see if they were paid bots and if that's a part of the marketing machine for a lot of these celebrities.
00:49:29.860Miriam writes, Candice, you'd be a great sport reporter, me talking about the elevator fight.
00:49:40.020It was kind of a mask down moment, but I think Solange walked away.
00:49:44.880I think people appreciated Solange in that moment.
00:49:47.060What would you do for your sister if her husband cheated on her and then embarrassed her in front of someone that you allegedly had, that he allegedly had an affair with?
00:49:55.940M. Gypsum writes, as an ex-transgender person, I pray that Sarah McBride repents and accepts Jesus Christ as his Savior and Lord soon.
00:50:05.340Listen, there is so much going on in the world right now, and you truly do just have to pray for people and pray that they recognize that a lot of the things that they believe are natural and happening to them naturally are really being implied to them socially.
00:50:22.000And I revert back to that clip, you may not have seen it, of Bill Maher going through the map of transgenderism and saying how things don't make sense.
00:50:30.000Like, why are there so many trans people in California but not in Tennessee?
00:50:34.680What does this imply about culture and the social impact that is being had in the classroom?
00:50:39.580Why are people so woke in Los Angeles and not so woke in other places like in the very Republican Oklahoma?
00:50:46.700So people don't realize that a lot of this is psychology, and what makes it even more frightening is that we're being banned from discussing it.
00:50:55.760We're just being banned from discussing it.
00:50:56.860Like, I can't say too much about that topic on YouTube because they have policies that protect certain narratives.
00:51:05.840This next person writes, let's put big pharma out of business.
00:51:57.480The Standis Get a Helmet bundle, the Standis for God and Country bundle, the Standis Christ is King bundle, and lastly, the Standis Blackout bundle, where you can get an autographed, signed copy of my book.
