00:00:00.000 I would argue negatively maybe they think you know and I've heard um Alex Cooper talk about
00:00:05.040 her which is the rich one um I've yeah that's who I that's who I know of yeah that I've heard
00:00:10.660 her talk about like how you know she's so happy that these women are empowered and confident 1.00
00:00:16.020 and I genuinely think in her head she believes she's doing good for the world but the problem
00:00:23.060 is we have this media we have all this stuff that's just lying to us constantly yeah and it
00:00:28.440 worked out for her but I mean Alex probably was an eight out of ten in her prime say it worked out 1.00
00:00:33.320 for her how old is she um she's like late 20s she's engaged it actually I mean on paper let's see 20
00:00:39.740 yeah I know I know but I I know yeah I know because typically they're too damaged so you can kind of
00:00:47.520 see I'm actually going to do a show on I think the guilt will creep up on them because there's
00:00:51.100 overwhelming evidence to suggest that this kind of behavior is not good for women um and I think
00:00:55.960 you know willful ignorance just means that they kind of they convince themselves that they believe
00:01:00.480 it and that they think they're doing good but I think over time especially if they have daughters
00:01:04.980 for themselves I think I think like you say you can you can blur the lines of reality but reality
00:01:10.940 will snap back and hit you in the face and I think it will snap back and hit them in the face in 20
00:01:14.700 years down the line if it's not guilt it will be some kind of marriage failure or family failure yeah
00:01:19.700 yeah I'm actually because she like on paper though she's an eight out of ten
00:01:23.260 she's engaged now and she's worth 50 million on paper this is amazing for her but the problem is
00:01:29.800 I think she's going to be too damaged and eventually she's going to divorce yeah like that that's my 1.00
00:01:35.760 prediction if I had to guess and and so if I had to interview them honestly I really wanted to ask
00:01:41.680 the question if they genuinely think they had a positive impact on the world yeah because I think
00:01:47.220 they I really think they believe this but you know we need that interview make it I know I know
00:01:53.180 I want oh I want to do a show on pretty privilege if it's actually a privilege because I I started
00:01:59.500 tweeting about the who are the prettiest women of the 80s and 90s and I just wanted to test if they
00:02:06.380 were married still and the majority were not so it was pretty privileged yeah is it a blessing or a curse
00:02:13.520 because when you think about it it's like if a girl is a four out of ten she has to really work
00:02:19.720 to be a good person yeah her character and Thomas Sowell talked about this he says who's to say that
00:02:25.420 the people with beauty are blessed because they eventually lose it and who's that like he was
00:02:31.460 you think about like school the prettiest girls were always the ones like getting up to nonsense 1.00
00:02:35.680 and they get lazy a lot of times because life is just handed to them yeah so a lot of times what'll
00:02:41.820 happen is they get fat later because they don't have the discipline to stay like they've never
00:02:46.360 worked hard at anything in their life or like you know they're they're not they didn't have to be
00:02:51.200 you know the four out of ten has to work to get in a relationship it depends on what you're defining
00:02:55.140 as privilege doesn't it because if you're defining as privilege you know these handouts and like the
00:02:59.160 instant gratification then absolutely pretty privilege is a thing but it's it's this you know the shift
00:03:04.640 in in culture when you look at the fact that we're gynocentric now it's like okay we can say pretty
00:03:09.780 privilege is a thing because in our society we've put so much value in things that are like money
00:03:16.240 selfish things instant gratification but it's like we talk about what's actually gonna fulfill the soul
00:03:22.520 and make you feel good things like family great relationships having a good character unity yeah
00:03:27.420 exactly being pretty actually when you look at the patterns in society probably doesn't lead to that
00:03:34.620 yeah well because i was thinking of the girls that they mentioned and it was one was jennifer aniston 0.92
00:03:39.700 who i actually i wouldn't have even put her up there like to be honest i wouldn't put her i would 0.99
00:03:44.620 have put her as a solid seven yeah in her prime i mean she's beautiful and she's aged super well 0.99
00:03:49.960 they put angelina jolie yeah also folks yeah yeah also does it like all of these women um what was 0.92
00:03:56.360 the other one that was married to the pastor i always forget her name but megan good um another one 0.95
00:04:01.760 that's now divorced sierra i guess we'll see well i think one uh mila kunis yeah she's married 1.00
00:04:08.900 they're still married aren't they yeah yeah there's an exception there yeah oh she's up there too yeah 0.75
00:04:13.800 but you know the question is is by and large is pretty a privilege i'm gonna do a show on this one
00:04:19.240 day as a whole what it's kind of a good question like is it is it a privilege you know even alex cooper
00:04:24.680 now she's worth 50 million dollars that's generational wealth that's amazing but odds are 1.00
00:04:32.640 she's gonna die alone if i had to guess if i had to get women that have been in her position in the 1.00
00:04:37.660 past don't typically lead long happy marriages typically that's really interesting and the thing is
00:04:44.540 half the time these women they get this money and they don't know what to do with it and so if 1.00
00:04:49.400 you are new to investing and you have savings you need to protect right now with the middle east war
00:04:54.660 the ukraine war and maybe even taiwan you need a new playbook that is safe allocate some gold now and
00:05:00.980 avoid frenzied panic of the unprepared when fear reigns gold protects the wise noble gold investments
00:05:07.840 offers a free five ounce america the beautiful coin with new iras this month shield your savings with
00:05:14.160 noble gold investments ira go to noblegoldinvestments.com that's noblegoldinvestments.com
00:05:19.580 that is the only gold company that i trust so the next thing i wanted to talk about was
00:05:24.760 i think there's an anti-white campaign going on really yeah yeah i know so you can never say
00:05:34.500 you have white pride and especially no i don't know i know i don't know but you could say i have black
00:05:40.800 pride that's fine but if you say i have white pride then suddenly it's a problem this was super
00:05:47.360 prevalent when i was in college i when i was in college you're a couple years younger so maybe high
00:05:52.860 school that was when the blm movement was going full force a couple years after college and it was so
00:05:59.620 crazy the amount of women that would say things like i hate straight white men we got rich white 1.00
00:06:05.160 this in my media a level our teacher no way a canadian white lady in her 30s single obviously 1.00
00:06:12.620 um she uh yeah we literally got taught in our media classes that middle-aged white men are evil and that 0.70
00:06:21.120 they are like the source of all the world's problems and every analysis that we would do of a piece of
00:06:25.860 media it would always come down to and who's this owned by and everyone was sort of collectively go a
00:06:31.040 middle-aged white man and i just started what yeah and i used i used to get really peed off with it
00:06:35.860 and i used to sort of you know stand up for middle-aged white men and go like you can acknowledge
00:06:41.980 patterns in certain industries but one why is that pattern there you know could it be that middle-aged
00:06:48.580 white men perhaps have more time on their hands so that's why they're in those positions but even still 0.96
00:06:53.560 if it is something else does that then mean that all middle-aged white men are these evil oppressors 0.91
00:06:59.200 i was like my dad's a middle-aged white man he doesn't have the same amount of money as rupert
00:07:03.060 murdoch well and the other thing they don't talk about is maybe there's things about they always
00:07:08.340 act like white people can't have culture and i'm like there are absolutely things that are white
00:07:15.060 culture i'll give you an example so i grew up with german nannies right so maybe it's german culture
00:07:19.980 technically but we had traditions that were literally from germany and i'm my mom's side is german right
00:07:26.560 and it was actually kind of cool we would have like these cones on the first day of school
00:07:30.140 they would feel it would be like a celebration your first day of school it's like a german thing okay
00:07:34.540 and even just certain like traditions that that were german i grew up with and they act like we
00:07:39.640 we can't have any type of culture yeah and i think it's them trying to eradicate it i don't know why
00:07:45.100 i don't know why there's this huge racism has just kind of flipped hasn't it i mean i see this
00:07:49.620 whole thing where it's like you know the whole idea of white privilege came into play um and it's
00:07:55.840 like now i i see these people and the way they talk about white people it's essentially like it's
00:08:00.700 the whole thing's just on a u-turn like we were supposed to come to some point of equilibrium where
00:08:06.000 we could all acknowledge you know the definition of racism which is you know prejudice against someone
00:08:12.000 because of the color of their skin whereas we seem to have gone past the middle point and just
00:08:18.440 completely gone in the opposite direction where now it's like oh racism is okay as long as it's
00:08:23.460 against white people yeah well 1.00
