00:00:00.000 There's a divide between how men and women vote, and women overwhelmingly vote left, and men don't.
00:00:06.980 And so the thing is, it's because we see the prism of the world differently.
00:00:11.180 When you think about how early America was structured, nobody was allowed to vote except stakeholders inside of the United States.
00:00:19.520 They didn't let anybody vote.
00:00:20.720 They didn't care, man or woman. 0.96
00:00:22.980 And men only got the right to vote universally shortly before women did. 0.89
00:00:28.160 It's not like they were always able to. 0.87
00:00:29.560 Most men could never vote either. The idea here that the founders had was that inside of this
00:00:34.540 nation, they did not trust the electorate to make great decisions. The states were the ones
00:00:38.420 who sent up the elected officials, not the people. That was never how it was designed to work inside
00:00:43.700 the republic anyway. So what's happened with the expansion of voting rights and universal suffrage
00:00:49.420 is you've given complete morons now the ability to have a say over your life. And like, let me 1.00
00:00:55.040 give you an example of this why should an 18 year old be able to negate your vote why like is an
00:01:02.860 18 year old smart enough to actually make an informed decision that negates your well-informed 0.99
00:01:09.500 vote don't you think that that's really stupid and counterproductive and counterintuitive and 0.99
00:01:15.740 it's recent like this is something this is a product of modernity it's not like this was 0.99
00:01:19.540 always this way. It's only been recently this way. Why do we even bother? That's the dumbest
00:01:25.580 thing I've ever heard in my life. Why wouldn't you at least wait until a person was in their 0.99
00:01:29.740 30s to vote or they had some stake in society, male or female, before they were allowed to even
00:01:34.960 cast a vote? Why does this idea that everybody, just because they're alive, needs to have a say
00:01:39.740 in everything? We don't run society that way with anything else. Yeah. Letting women vote was
00:01:47.800 the greatest political American mistake in history. Not only did it emotionalize politics 1.00
00:01:56.140 and policy, but it also ushered in a spirit of egalitarianism, everything's equal, and tolerance
00:02:03.140 that produced kind of a widespread sense of entitlement in the political realm. And so think
00:02:08.540 about this for a moment. You have to be 21 to buy nicotine products, right? But only 18 to cast a
00:02:16.000 that affects you know foreign immigration policy national debt the future of the country not only
00:02:21.920 do we need to repeal the 19th amendment but we also need to reform voting as a whole uh it should
00:02:29.040 be you know only third generation americans who pay taxes who own land who have children
00:02:36.560 have no criminal record all of these things need to happen to really restore and recover a strong
00:02:41.760 America.
