00:00:00.000 I want oh I want to do a show on pretty privilege if it's actually a privilege because I I started
00:00:06.960 tweeting about the who are the prettiest women of the 80s and 90s
00:00:11.200 and I just wanted to test if they were married still and the majority were not
00:00:16.560 so it's pretty privileged yeah is it a blessing or a curse because when you think about it it's
00:00:22.560 like if a girl is a four out of ten she has to really work to be a good person yeah her character
00:00:28.960 and Thomas Sowell talked about this he says who's to say that the people with beauty
00:00:33.440 are blessed because they eventually lose it and who's that like he was you think about like school
00:00:39.360 the prettiest girls are always the ones like getting up to nonsense and they get lazy a lot of 1.00
00:00:44.640 times because life is just handed to them yeah so a lot of times what'll happen is they get fat later
00:00:50.800 because they don't have the discipline to stay like they've never worked hard at anything in their life
00:00:54.800 or like you know they're they're not they didn't have to be you know the four out of ten us to work
00:00:59.520 to get in a relationship it depends on what you're defining as privilege doesn't it because if you're
00:01:03.120 defining as privilege you know these handouts and like the instant gratification then absolutely pretty
00:01:07.760 privilege is a thing but it's it's this you know the shift in in culture when you look at the fact
00:01:13.120 that we're gynocentric now it's like okay we can say pretty privilege is a thing because in our society
00:01:19.040 we've put so much value in things that are like money selfish things instant gratification but it's
00:01:25.600 like we talk about what's actually gonna fulfill the soul and make you feel good things like family
00:01:31.200 great relationships having a good character unity yeah exactly being pretty actually when you look at
00:01:38.160 the patterns in society probably doesn't lead to that yeah well because i was thinking of the girls 1.00
00:01:43.200 that they mentioned and it was one was jennifer aniston who actually i wouldn't have even put her up 1.00
00:01:48.720 there like to be honest i wouldn't put her i would have put her as a solid seven yeah in her prime i 1.00
00:01:54.160 mean she's beautiful and she's aged super well they put angelina jolie yeah also fox yeah yeah also
00:02:00.960 does that like all of these women um what was the other one that was married to the pastor i always 1.00
00:02:04.800 forget her name but megan good um another one that's now divorced sierra i guess we'll see oh i think 1.00
00:02:12.480 one uh mila kunis yeah she's married they're still married aren't they yeah yeah there's an exception
00:02:17.760 there yeah oh she's up there too yeah but you know the question is is by and large is pretty a privilege
00:02:24.480 i'm gonna do a show on this one day as a whole what it's kind of a good question like is it is it a
00:02:29.600 privilege you know even alex cooper now she's worth 50 million dollars that's generational wealth that's 1.00
00:02:35.600 amazing but odds are she's gonna die alone if i had to guess if i had to get women that have been 1.00
00:02:43.280 in her position in the past don't typically lead long happy marriages typically that's really 1.00
00:02:49.760 interesting and the thing is half the time these women they get this money and they don't know what 1.00
00:02:54.480 to do with it and so if you are new to investing and you have savings you need to protect right now
00:03:00.080 with the middle east war the ukraine war and maybe even taiwan you need a new playbook that is safe
00:03:06.320 allocate some gold now and avoid frenzied panic of the unprepared when fear reigns gold protects the
00:03:12.960 wise noble gold investments offers a free five ounce america the beautiful coin with new iras this month
00:03:19.680 shield your savings with noble gold investments ira go to noblegoldinvestments.com that's noblegoldinvestments.com
00:03:26.240 that is the only gold company that i trust so the next thing i wanted to talk about was
00:03:33.120 i think there's an anti-white campaign going on really yeah i know so you can never say you have
00:03:41.840 white pride and especially no no no i know i know i know but you could say i have black pride that's
00:03:48.080 fine but if you say i have white pride then suddenly it's a problem this was super prevalent when i was in
00:03:55.040 college i when i was in college you're a couple years younger so maybe high school that was when
00:04:00.320 the blm movement was going full force a couple years after college and it was so crazy the amount 0.99
00:04:07.440 of women that would say things like i hate straight white men we got rich white men in my media a level 0.99
00:04:13.360 our teacher no way a canadian white lady in her 30s single obviously um she uh yeah we literally got 1.00
00:04:22.480 taught in our media classes that middle-aged white men are evil and that they are like the source of
00:04:29.280 all the world's problems and every analysis that we would do of a piece of media it would always come
00:04:33.600 down to and who's this owned by and everyone was sort of collectively go a middle-aged white man
00:04:38.960 and i just started what yeah and i used i used to get really peed off with it and i used to sort of
00:04:43.920 you know stand up for middle-aged white men and go like you can acknowledge patterns in certain
00:04:49.840 industries but one why is that pattern there you know could it be that middle-aged white
00:04:55.440 men perhaps have more time on their hands so that's why they're in those positions but even 1.00
00:04:59.840 still if it is something else does that then mean that all middle-aged white men are these evil
00:05:05.280 oppressors i was like my dad's a middle-aged white man he doesn't have the same amount of money as
00:05:09.360 rupert murdoch well and the other thing they don't talk about is maybe there's things about they
00:05:14.720 always act like white people can't have culture and i'm like there are absolutely things that
00:05:21.040 are white culture i'll give you an example so i grew up with german nannies okay right so maybe
00:05:25.600 it's german culture technically but we had traditions that were literally from germany and i'm my mom's
00:05:32.080 side is german right and it was actually kind of cool we would have like these cones on the first day
00:05:36.240 of school they they would feel it would be like a celebration your first day of school it's like a german
00:05:40.640 thing okay and even just certain like traditions that that were german i grew up with and they act
00:05:45.920 like we we can't have any type of culture yeah and i think it's them trying to eradicate it i don't know
00:05:51.440 why i don't know why there's this huge racism has just kind of flipped hasn't it i mean i see this
00:05:56.240 whole thing where it's like you know the whole idea of white privilege came into play um and it's like
00:06:02.720 now i i see these people and the way they talk about white people it's essentially like it's the whole
00:06:08.160 thing's just on a u-turn like we were supposed to come to some point of equilibrium where we could
00:06:13.280 all acknowledge you know the definition of racism which is you know prejudice against someone because
00:06:18.880 of the color of their skin whereas we seem to have gone past the middle point and just completely gone
00:06:26.080 in the opposite direction where now it's like oh racism is okay as long as it's against white people
00:06:31.600 yeah well and you see my story the other day oh yeah he who will not be named he will not be
00:06:38.160 named will not be named i didn't realize he was um a racist yeah he literally said you can't
00:06:44.640 be racist against white people which is absolutely ridiculous it's absolutely ridiculous i'm i'm thinking
00:06:51.360 if you see color that that probably indicates that you've got a problem there if you if you you know
00:06:59.040 think that a person's color of their skin and where they come from on planet earth somehow makes any
00:07:07.120 difference in in their ability to be a human being and that we all have the same innate value
00:07:14.720 you've got some racial issues going on there if you if you think that like if you if you're a black
00:07:20.240 person and you see a white person and you automatically make all of these assumptions on
00:07:24.000 them because of the color of their skin that is racist in the same way if you are a white person
00:07:28.960 and you see a black person you make all of these assumptions on who they are as a human being
00:07:32.960 because of the color of their skin you are a racist well and i remember when i was younger
00:07:37.600 i actually i felt guilty when i was a kid for like being because they would always be like oh rich
00:07:42.080 white people and i'm like well that's where yeah you know what i mean like i'm like
00:07:47.920 and but you know when you realize you're like you realize if you live in the west you're richer than like
00:07:52.160 80 percent of you yeah yeah but so there is this video going viral that shows the impact of this
00:07:59.040 on the media and the culture let's pull it up i am proud to be white three two one
00:08:10.240 just be in the middle yeah can there be a middle all right yeah take a side
00:08:15.600 i don't know i almost went there too it's like i think like guiltily like i'm like happy that i'm
00:08:27.360 not oppressed but i'm not proud of like things people have done in the past when i when i think
00:08:34.560 of being proud of something i think of something i worked for or that um yeah i had to get i had to
00:08:40.160 do nothing to be white absolutely nothing and nothing was taken from me because i was white
00:08:45.120 it's like saying i'm a proud white person is a completely different saying than saying i'm
00:08:51.600 a proud black person because when you hear i'm a proud black person i think empowerment i think
00:08:56.560 strength i think courage i think you know all these amazing things that the black community has
00:09:00.800 done and accomplished throughout the years but then when you say i am a strong or i'm a proud white person
00:09:06.080 already there's so much like hate involved in that thing about that is like like how you said
00:09:14.720 someone who says i'm proud to be black that's empowerment why aren't i allowed to be proud to
00:09:19.760 be white what makes it wrong yeah what are you proud of just your skin color because yes that is wrong 0.98
00:09:27.040 so you're saying i can't be proud to be white because i don't have a culture no i that's not what
00:09:32.560 i'm saying is that i when white people say they're proud to be white a lot of times at least in my
00:09:37.680 opinion they're just they're talking about their skin color that they're not a different race i think
00:09:42.800 that's wrong yeah but um as like we were talking about as a proud black person they've been oppressed
00:09:47.840 that a lot of their culture was stolen from them and a lot of reasons that i don't like
00:09:52.000 proud to be white is because it has the the nazis used it the the the kkk used it i don't want to be
00:09:59.120 associated with any of those things so i'm just gonna completely stay away from that sure i'm not
00:10:05.200 proud of like what my culture's done but at the same time like i would not want to be anything else
00:10:10.800 if i had to choose another race i don't know what i would be i'm okay with where i am even though i'm
00:10:15.600 i'm getting backlash about being white
