Stefan Molyneux and Roman Millennial join me to talk about the left's recent anti-facts tirades, the FBI raid on Paul Managans, and the latest on the Black Lives Matter movement. We also have a wine review from Gerald Morgan Jr. and the wine of the day from Lotta Malbec.
00:02:51.000Producing with me in video studio, as always, is Jared, who is not gay, on today, the free show.
00:02:55.000So if you're watching this on the YouTube, you're not a Mug Club member, you can leave your comments or subscribe because it don't cost nothing.
00:03:01.000You can follow him at NotGayJarred, me at S. Crowder on Twitter, or again, in the YouTube comments section, or you can send your hate mail.
00:03:07.000I fulfill my legal obligations, dry iron conclusions.
00:09:30.000Yeah, I think it was something about if a robot replaces an employee.
00:09:35.000If they make $50,000, then we should tax the robot as if it was a person, whatever the normal tax would be for an employee who makes $50,000.
00:09:43.000Do you ever just wonder if late-life Bill Gates could go back to early-life Bill Gates if they'd support the same thing?
00:09:48.000Do you think early Bill Gates would want a $50,000 robot tax?
00:09:52.000Small-business Bill Gates would be like, this sucks.
00:09:54.000This really sucks, but big-business Bill Gates goes, I can deal with a red tape.
00:10:21.000While the rates are not official, the suggestions for the taxes are a 4% tax rate for jobs lost to automation, 3% for carbon emissions, and then a 2% tax for the guys who keep getting their dicks caught in the robot sex dolls.
00:10:39.000There need to be protections for those robots.
00:12:06.000And then there's an article from Slate, and you tell me, because the term anti-science has been thrown around by the left so often, it's lost all meaning.
00:12:14.000So you tell me if this could be misinterpreted that way from Slate, titled Stop Equating Science with Truth.
00:12:40.000These are people who believe that the Earth was created in seven days, and they don't believe that, you know, Florida's gone yet from climate change.
00:12:46.000So they've, you know, they've straw-manned conservatives as being anti-science for a long time.
00:12:50.000And it is interesting, we talk about sort of cultural shifts in the pendulum swinging.
00:13:10.000They're writing at Slate that we shouldn't consider science truth.
00:13:14.000And they based it off of a bunch of straw men.
00:13:16.000So let me read some quotes from this article.
00:13:18.000She actually writes, It's 2017 and people are still debating, in reference to the Google memo, whether or not women are intellectually inferior to men and whether we are entitled to a workplace that isn't toxic to people simply based on their gender and sex.
00:13:51.000No, let's continue because I think I can make a case here.
00:13:53.000She goes on to say, it's 2017 and to some extent scientific literature still supports a patriarchal view that ranks a man's intellect above a woman's.
00:14:03.000Again, this is using the Google memo as a jumping off point.
00:14:17.000If you want to get into that discussion about intellect, we've talked about the bell curve and how men tend to occupy both sides of the bell.
00:14:23.000That's why overall IQ is higher for men, but it's not necessarily a fair representation.
00:14:27.000But men and women are definitely designed differently intellectually.
00:14:31.000That's another thing, too, that we see all the time from the left, right?
00:15:07.000She goes on to write, racial taxonomies conveniently confirmed that enslaving African-American people, sorry, that enslaving African, this was before they were African-American.
00:15:20.000Was a perfectly reasonable behavior since, as Thomas Jefferson put it, black people were inferior to the whites in the endowments of body and mind.
00:15:28.000Funny enough, this is the exact same argument this woman and feminists like her use when they justify killing unborn babies.
00:15:45.000And she's using it to try and shut down dialogue coming from the right, because now the right kind of has a corner on science and on biological arguments, as you see in the realm of cultural arguments.
00:17:22.000But then she divorced her and married a man in 2013.
00:17:28.000So, in her article, she also goes on, I'm just trying to add this all up, she argues that a hint of irony, that science, okay, science, which is not necessarily truth, has caused a dangerously warm planet.
00:17:53.000And see, that's what Daily Wire wrote about that, how often lesbian women end up having more sex with men than straight women and getting pregnant more often.
00:18:00.000But if people argue that, in many instances, that lesbianism is more a byproduct of nurture than nature.
00:18:06.000We've talked about how homosexuality in men you've seen throughout history, but lesbianism, at the rate that it is, certainly seems to be more of a byproduct of nurture.
00:18:31.000If we argue that it's impossible to biologically change your sex or your gender, that's hate speech.
00:18:38.000If we argue that, unlike the previous statements I just made, which are scientifically observable, both past and present, that climate change doomsday alarmists are basing economy-crippling policy on less than entirely reliable climate prediction models, and maybe we should just slow down a little bit, well, that's...
00:19:16.000Now, I don't believe that science necessarily is always—I certainly believe that science can be politically motivated, especially if you look in the realm of grants, if you look in the realm of scholarships, you look in the realm of where people are going to get federal funding, to get national funding.
00:19:30.000Yeah, of course, that can dictate sometimes—and you would maybe say it, people who are watching in the comments section, Big Oil.
00:20:04.000When you look at Google, we'll talk about this with Stefan Molyneux, we have to get going, where 50% of people at Google actually didn't think this was all that offensive.
00:20:11.000But they don't want to speak out about it.
00:20:14.000When you look at people actually just at large, if you say, hey, what if I tell you biologically men and women are different?
00:20:27.000Now, most people, and they tend to be right because so do most scientists, but it doesn't matter.
00:20:31.000Science doesn't matter in this instance, not because of funding, not because of grants, not because of the scientific method, which is what we talk about as conservatives, that grants and funding can obviously alter the course of the scientific method.
00:20:43.000They argue that science doesn't equate truth because it could be offensive.
00:20:48.000And here's the problem with that is, what is offensive now?
00:23:24.000I got him at LottoWithCarterShop.com where you can get your shirt where the socialism is for figs and the firearm shirt and there's some really cool clothes.
00:23:36.000I have to wait a woman's one because it fits better.
00:24:43.000You know, I mean, the end of a book recording, the end of a book production, it's basically like trying to land a helicopter into the side of a mountain blindfolded in cyclones.
00:24:53.000So, yes, I'm trying to sort of really focus on what needs to get done in the world to finish this up.
00:24:58.000So, yeah, I'm not in the studio at the moment.
00:25:00.000You know, it's funny, because Nagy Gerdo used to use it as an excuse.
00:25:03.000He would say he was finishing his book to go to the Super 8.
00:25:06.000And then we just found him there with a noose, and it just, it devolved very quickly.
00:25:40.000I think he just wanted something fair, something that was going to actually go into the ideas.
00:25:46.000And I can't speak for him, but I would imagine that in his position, he might have some concerns that the mainstream media might seek to sensationalize and reduce the arguments to a bunch of ad hominem.
00:25:58.000To talk with someone who was going to give the actual intellectual and scientific content of his argument its due respect and airing.
00:26:07.000And I think he found that the alternative media, or at least me, was probably going to be a better chance that it was going to happen that way.
00:26:14.000Yeah, and it seems like it's been well-received.
00:26:16.000I actually saw it in my YouTube trending feed.
00:26:51.000Because you've been a good communicator on this issue.
00:26:54.000I think we both agree, listen, when it comes to Facebook, YouTube, it's not about the First Amendment.
00:26:59.000But when we're talking about freedom of speech, when we're talking about that topic, we're not just talking about government intervention.
00:27:04.000We are talking also about this idea of self-censorship and specifically companies being dishonest with their censorship practices.
00:27:10.000This seems as though Google can fire whoever they want, but they're firing him for something they claim that they would never do, for his opinion.
00:27:18.000Is that kind of what you've been presenting?
00:27:21.000Is that how James feels, or does he think it's just a wrongful termination period?
00:27:24.000Well, I think in the interview he said he loves Google, he's very enthusiastic about the mission, and who doesn't want as much information to be available at people's fingertips for them to research and so on?
00:27:37.000So I think that The concern is that there's so much power in the hands of these companies.
00:27:43.000You know, like way back in the day, you could pick up the phone, and you could crap about the phone company, and you could talk your politics with your friends, and the phone company didn't do anything.
00:27:51.000They didn't say, well, we're going to put you on the super crackly line, or we're going to put you on the line which has seals mating in the background so nobody can hear each other.
00:27:59.000You know, I always tried to find that line.
00:28:05.000So I think the idea that we used to just be able to have conversations and not worry about the content and how it would be transmitted or how it would be viewed or how it might be skewed.
00:28:14.000Now, of course, the amount of power that these companies have, it's very tempting, I think, when you get People who have an agenda in there, and the agenda is not allow for the open discussion of ideas.
00:28:26.000And I think what is alarming people about this is, okay, this is, you know, Google, I'm sure, has this thing where they say, hey, if you've got great ideas about how to make the company better, we value diversity of opinion, we value diversity of thought, we're a scientific, technical company, we value all of this information, we value this enthusiasm.
00:28:41.000And he listened, and, you know, like most of us when we were young, he thought, hey, I'm sure that's what they really want when he did it.
00:28:47.000It's like a puppy bringing back a dead bird.
00:29:15.000Let's design things to leverage Gender strengths and avoid weaknesses and so on.
00:29:20.000And a lot of this stuff has come out of feminism as well, saying here's how we can balance work and family, here's how we can leverage women's strengths and so on.
00:29:28.000So he went out and he did this, and I think if you look at the ferocity with which he was dealt with internally, I think people do have a concern that there may not be objectivity in how Google approaches data, and that of course makes people feel nervous about everything else.
00:30:00.000Anti-diversity manifesto says females unfit for tech jobs.
00:30:04.000It is so clearly a lie by omission because he goes out of his way to stress points as to where women would actually have advantages over men and encourages Google to place more value on these points, like cooperation in the workplace.
00:30:18.000There are a multitude of factors that he lists there, and we can't list them all, but people can go read the memo.
00:30:23.000Sorry to interrupt, but I know this kind of guy because I've worked in software.
00:30:28.000I managed an R&D department and all of that.
00:30:32.000He's like, how do we increase the proportion of women in tech jobs?
00:30:37.000So like any engineer, like any sort of rational, sensible person who maybe doesn't always understand the Eddies and flows of human backlash and interaction.
00:30:46.000He said, OK, I had a problem to be solved.
00:30:48.000And according to the diversity training that I take, everybody wants to close this gap, get more women into tech, more women into management.
00:30:53.000So he says, OK, well, why aren't there a lot?
00:30:56.000Now, the answer of, well, it's just sexism, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:31:10.000And let's try and build an environment, a set of systems that's going to facilitate Google reaching its goal of getting more women into tech.
00:31:17.000And so what he did was innocently try to solve a problem.
00:31:49.000But here's something that I do think is important, and that's a really good point because we've talked about this.
00:31:53.000You look at John Oliver, for example, his bid on the Border Patrol, which is really hard for us to rebut because there wasn't a lot of information in there.
00:32:00.000It was basically a logical fallacy using data up until 2012, not including new data.
00:32:04.000But he basically says, okay, let's boil it down.
00:32:26.000He's trying to be productive as opposed to just saying, you're bad, your ideas are bad.
00:32:31.000It really seemed like an earnest attempt to help Google...
00:32:35.000Even if that's just opinion, that's how it came across, which to me tells me they don't want a discussion.
00:32:40.000The same reason that we've had to move our interviews around and you've been incredibly accommodating, not a single leftist would come on this show to discuss it because they don't want to talk about it.
00:32:49.000Well, first of all, I think John Oliver does have a solution to the solution to the problem of, well, not enough people are voting Democrat, so let's bring a whole bunch of people in from Mexico, 80% plus of whom are going to vote Democrat in the long run, and, of course, the families are going to vote Democrat.
00:34:06.000Otherwise, Al Sharpton would be outside rattling a tin cup and people wouldn't give it to him because they think he'd be using it to buy drugs.
00:35:18.000I think that is part of leftist sex education for six-year-olds.
00:35:21.000I think that is pretty much the textbook, so that's important to put in consideration.
00:35:25.000Yeah, right after they put a condom on a banana.
00:35:27.000This goes alongside with the labeling thing too, right?
00:35:29.000So I've got a video that's happening at the moment, which is my interview with the guy from Google.
00:35:34.000And yeah, so a bunch of news outlets and media outlets have written about it.
00:35:37.000And you know, it's like Gollum with the ring, you know, because they know the right thing to do is to present the arguments and let the audience decide for themselves.
00:35:47.000They know that that's the right thing to do.
00:36:39.000Speaking of problems, okay, so I'm interested in your opinion here because you're obviously a big Trump supporter, but you've been a longtime pacifist.
00:36:46.000Where are you on the North Korea issue?
00:36:58.000You know, those of us who are old enough to have lived through the hysteria regarding the weapons of mass destruction under Saddam Hussein, I gotta tell ya, it's a burn that doesn't heal.
00:38:16.000The big problem in North Korea is not just the supposed weapons of mass destruction, but they have massive amounts of conventional military weaponry.
00:38:24.000They have conventional, you know, the howitzers and the guns and all of the giant armaments that are pointed At all of the American bases just south of the border, that is where things could get really, really unpleasant.
00:38:36.000And I do not like the idea of America as the world's policeman.
00:38:39.000Let the local, you know, you've got Japan, you've got China, you've got South Korea.
00:38:43.000Maybe the American Air Force could do something like take out their capacity to use air power or take out any missile factories they could find.
00:38:50.000But as far as anything that goes on in the ground, I don't think America should have anything to do with it.
00:38:54.000I think America's kind of shot its vault and its credibility in various places of Ever since the Second World War, it's really worked out well.
00:39:51.000Well, I mean, anybody who's crazy and cornered is going to be highly dangerous.
00:39:56.000And so, I mean, it is one of these things that if there is solid intelligence that something's going on, if there's a way of taking out that threat in a relatively hands-off, non-boots-on-the-ground kind of way, I could see a case being made for that as a defensive maneuver.
00:40:11.000But, you know, keep pushing the guy, keep pushing the guy, you may end up creating exactly the kind of conflict that you claim you want to avoid by cornering him and giving him nowhere to go but, you know, coming at you with everything he's got.
00:40:23.000Yeah, yeah, and I really, you know, this guy, it really does come down to sociological issues.
00:40:29.000It comes down to psychological issues with him.
00:40:30.000This is a guy who, in order to convince people he was a deity, or his dad did, said he got 11 holes in one in his first game of golf.

00:47:41.000So earlier last week, it was reported by The New York Times that they had received a document from the Department of Justice saying that they were looking for people to handle a case regarding racial discrimination in college admissions.
00:47:53.000Now, after this story got out, a bunch of, you know, lefty publications started trying to paint this as the Trump administration going after affirmative action in general in colleges to try and protect the white race.
00:48:05.000You know, like two days later, it was the whites.
00:48:09.000Two days later, the Department of Justice themselves actually...
00:48:14.000Let out that, no, this wasn't across the board targeting affirmative action policies.
00:48:18.000This was actually regarding one single case that was actually put forward during the Obama administration, but they had ignored.
00:48:26.000So now Trump's, you know, they're dealing with it now.
00:48:28.000That was actually put forward by Asian Americans regarding Harvard's racial discrimination.
00:48:32.000So, you know, this wasn't Trump's administration trying to white knight the whites.
00:48:36.000It was actually Asian Americans who a lot of people don't know, but they're actually the ones who suffer most under affirmative action.
00:48:42.000I'm trying to get some fair treatment and some justice regarding their admissions to Harvard because there's a huge gap there, the number of Asian applicants who apply versus those who are accepted.
00:48:52.000Yeah, well, there's another example of President Obama kicking the Asian can down the road for Trump.
00:49:40.000I never get actually straight up Asian unless people are familiar with how Eurasian people look and they know people who are mixed themselves, whatever.
00:49:47.000But the thing is, my name is pretty Chinese.
00:49:50.000I have an English name and a Chinese first name and a Chinese last name.
00:49:54.000And people ask me this all the time since, you know, I've kind of talked about this problem before.
00:49:57.000I get a lot of Asians saying like, hey, I'm about to apply.
00:50:01.000Should I actually mark down that I'm Asian?
00:50:03.000Now, since I'm biracial, I usually just put other.
00:50:21.000If I were an Asian applying to university right now, or even as a white person, frankly, I would, you know, if it's possible, just not answer that question or say other, because, you know, it's come out that, yes, like, if you are Asian, you are much, much less likely to be accepted.
00:50:35.000If you are white, you know, a little better than Hispanic, slightly more.
00:50:38.000And then, you know, if you're an African-American, unfortunately, regardless of how you do academically, it's kind of, you know, like, Welcome wagon for you to come.
00:50:46.000And it's not that I don't want African Americans in college.
00:50:48.000It's just, you know, it's not fair to them.
00:50:51.000We've talked about that because they have much higher dropout rates.
00:50:54.000They're much more likely to be in the bottom, you know, 10th percentile of the class.
00:50:57.000And they struggle and it becomes really stressful.
00:51:00.000And you end up with a kid dropping out of college as opposed to going into a program where maybe he was, you know, he was more appropriately suited at the time or his scores.
00:51:08.000You put him, you thrust him in with a group of people who performed better than he did.
00:51:12.000That's the problem with affirmative action.
00:51:13.000A lot of people haven't really read those statistics.
00:51:15.000It's sad that more people often end up dropping out than completing college.
00:51:19.000And the leftist needs to decide, do they really believe in equal opportunity?
00:51:22.000Because they seem to push equal outcome.
00:51:50.000What do you think is really going to happen here with this case?
00:51:55.000Well, the Supreme Court has ruled several times that affirmative action programs are legal as long as they don't have racial quotas or racial point systems, but colleges are allowed to take race into account when deciding admissions along with other factors, right?
00:52:10.000So it's not likely that affirmative action as a whole, that's not going anywhere.
00:52:16.000In terms of what's going to happen to Harvard specifically, there are some really, I'm sorry to say, damning stats for Harvard.
00:52:22.000I think it's going to be really hard for them to argue that this wasn't targeted.
00:52:27.000The case hasn't been released fully, not to my knowledge, so I'm not exactly sure what kind of outcome the coalition of Asian groups that have launched this complaint are looking for.
00:52:38.000But I think this is great at the very least, right?
00:52:40.000Because, I mean, who knows where this is going to go?
00:52:42.000But at the very least, this is bringing attention to a problem that has existed for a long time in the United States.
00:52:46.000You know, an economy where skilled labor, including but not limited to college degrees, are an asset.
00:52:52.000Like, universities choosing students, like you said, who aren't going to finish, it's actually harming the economy and just, you know, saddling these students who weren't prepared to be there with tons of unnecessary debt, probably.
00:53:02.000Well, it's a human right, so once we just declare it a human right and it's free, you know, Bernie will be happy, and then there's no more issue.
00:53:07.000Then we just punt it at the taxpayers for another, I don't know, $18 trillion.
00:53:12.000It's interesting that you bring this up, because we've talked about this.
00:53:14.000It's kind of rare that you hear what used to be.
00:53:17.000I think this generation of Asians now, you get some social justice left.
00:53:20.000But for the longest time, you didn't really hear them start marches or file a lot of suits.
00:53:24.000They kind of just went about their business.
00:53:26.000You know, that's why they they would flourish.
00:53:28.000They'd be in the top business percentile.
00:53:29.000They'd be often the wealthiest people in the country.
00:53:32.000They just just filled up our universities, Asian-Americans.
00:53:35.000But now you're seeing a lot more complaints.
00:53:38.000You're seeing a lot far more younger Asians who are complaining about discrimination and sort of, you know, future careers at salon dot com.
00:53:46.000Have you noticed that, being raised with a traditionally sort of Asian family, but being among younger Asians that a lot of them suck?
00:54:14.000And so I think in these, like, later generations, you know, first generation or, you know, fresh off the boat immigrants like my dad who are Asian, they're very...
00:54:23.000I don't want to say like anti-hippie job, but yeah, anti-hippie job, focus on financial stability, stuff like that.
00:54:28.000Political activism doesn't really lead to financial stability, but you have these generations who have been in the United States longer, so they're kind of, I think, adapting more to the culture of, I don't want to say Complaining about things.
00:54:41.000But yeah, you know, being more politically active, being more civically minded, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.
00:54:45.000Like you said, like a lot of these Asians who are younger are social justice warriors.
00:54:49.000Well, I do have a question for you because I don't know if you've...
00:54:51.000I think it was the tipping point, and I think it's Gladwell, where he talks about how a lot of Asian immigrants, specifically Asians and Indians, would come over and they would open up shops.
00:54:59.000And then they wanted their children to be doctors or to be lawyers and go to college.
00:55:03.000Now, a lot of them came over and didn't.
00:55:04.000They opened up businesses and made an absolute ton of money and saved it to send their kids to higher education.
00:55:10.000So now you have a generation of Asian immigrants or sort of second generation removed from Asian immigrants who are being thrust into the university system, the indoctrination system, and often aren't making as much money as their parents and are being saddled with debt.
00:55:23.000That's something a lot of people don't understand.
00:55:25.000It'll get worse the more we get socialized with healthcare, as your parents well know in Canada.
00:55:50.000I mean, it's it's there's a marked difference between the, I guess, work ethic of these earlier generations and these later generations.
00:55:57.000Like you said, I mean, even if you look at the the current incomes of, let's say, you know, Vietnamese immigrants, a lot of whom came over during the war had absolutely nothing.
00:56:06.000A lot of them are still doing better than the average white household.
00:56:10.000And, you know, this isn't due to education.
00:56:13.000And I think, you know, the brilliance of the American dream.
00:56:15.000But I think, you know, these But Asian students who are right now going to these, you know, universities, expensive degrees, studying gender studies, then, you know, going to work at Salon, I think it goes to show that college can't fix everything, right?
00:56:28.000I mean, a college degree is great, but it's not a magic degree.
00:56:30.000It's not going to magically create wealth.
00:56:32.000If you don't have that entrepreneurial spirit, that hard work ethic, it's still not going to get you anywhere.
00:56:38.000Especially if it's a science degree, because as we know, science does not equate to truth.
00:56:42.000You've taught us a valuable lesson today.
00:56:43.000I had a question, because you bring this up, and it makes me think, I have a friend whose parents immigrated from Laos, and he kind of grew up in a very, like you said, a very conservative household, very entrepreneurial, but it's kind of the opposite for him.
00:56:55.000Is this the one who served as the Tommy from Baltimore sketch?
00:57:01.000So he kind of finds himself on the opposite side, where he sees the Black Lives Matter movement, he sees the LGBTQAIP movement, and kind of this decade of oppression Olympics, they feel a little left out.
00:57:12.000It pushes him more toward conservatism because he feels so screwed and left behind by the rest of the minority classes in America right now.
00:57:20.000I wonder if that's because it just comes down to parents giving you a critical thinking filter.
00:57:23.000Do you think that's a big component to why you are the way you are?
00:57:26.000I mean, personally, I can only speak from personal experience, but...
00:57:36.000If King of the Hill serves me right, that is the correct eminem.
00:57:39.000But yeah, I mean, I've got to say, when I think of people ask me that all the time, like, you know, you didn't grow up in the States, you grew up in, I mean, I grew up in mainland China for a bit, mainly Hong Kong, but also mainland China and Canada, too.
00:57:51.000I mean, pretty socialist, if not straight up communist places.
00:57:54.000Like, why do you think the way you do?
00:57:56.000And I've got to say, a lot of it comes down to my parents.
00:57:59.000And, you know, For a lot of these immigrants, I think there's a struggle between wanting to have your children assimilate into the new culture, but also give them the same values you had, between wanting to work your butt off to give them a good future, but also be able to spend the amount of time that you need to raise them properly, right?
00:58:16.000So I don't think there's one answer across all immigrant populations, but I think the Asian population in general is a pretty interesting one, because if you look at any stats social justice warriors bring up to You know, imply that there is racial oppression of non-whites in the United States.
00:58:31.000Asians completely knock any of those out of the water.
00:58:33.000Well, then they say, well, Asians weren't exploited the way, well, who do you think built the railroads?
00:58:56.000Do you find it offensive, based on the whole Google anti-diversity manifesto, for someone to suggest that a male might biologically have advantages that you don't and that you might have some advantages that he does not?
00:59:07.000On a scale from 1 to 10, how offensive is it?
00:59:11.00010 being extremely offensive, 1 being I don't care?
00:59:48.000Actually, it's interesting because you were talking about being raised in mainland China, Canada, the United States.
00:59:51.000Then you have these people at Slate and Salon saying, the gender difference, it's entirely sociological.
00:59:57.000Did you see consistent differences between men and women across all the cultures?
01:00:03.000If you did, is there one that stands out specifically?
01:00:05.000Like, did you see, okay, this is a clear example of where men and women are different biologically, whether it's mainland China, Canada, or the United States, regardless of context.
01:00:14.000Actually, well, something that I did notice that the United States is one of the most...
01:00:18.000Western culture in general is one of the most equitable I've ever seen, right?
01:00:22.000And just traveling all over Asia, just, you know, the number of female executives, for example, that I see, the number of female professors that I see.
01:00:29.000And, you know, that's obviously, you know, women in Hong Kong and China, we're not oppressed or anything like that.
01:00:37.000The number of men who are CEOs worldwide is not coincidental, right?
01:00:42.000And that looks at all different cultures.
01:00:43.000And I think for people who are making these allegations, let's say against the person who wrote the memo, for them to actually be so insular looking only at the United States when trying to refute these biological aspects, I think it shows a lack of critical thinking, right?
01:00:56.000If you actually cared about this, you would, like you said, look at all different cultures.
01:00:59.000And I think when you look at different cultures everywhere, There is a pattern, right?
01:01:59.000And it doesn't make you know what Rear's counselor said to not mess with my LWC time, because you know it sets me off.
01:02:05.000For only 6 to 9.99 annually, I get access to Louder with Crowder every damn day, plus Morning Riders, plus the entire CRTV light up, and this most beautiful I've ever seen hand-edged smoke.
01:02:46.000Don't forget that you can listen to the podcast on the go on iTunes and SoundCloud.
01:02:52.000the audio, you can download it and you can listen at your leisure here here here here here here here you can download it and you can listen at your leisure here Oh,
01:03:19.000that was a drowning that was a drowning dance.
01:05:32.000Well, I was saying, it's funny how we talk so much this week about the tech industry.
01:05:36.000We talk with Owen about the entertainment industry and the culture of silencing that goes on there with any kind of opinions or ideologies of dissent.
01:05:45.000Well, now you're seeing that, as we just talked about.
01:05:47.000For the first time, openly, they're trying to transition that to the scientific community.
01:05:51.000They used to say we're the party of science, but now the entertainment industry, writers, reporters, are telling the scientific community they need to shut up.
01:05:58.000So I think there's obviously a real problem with the silencing culture of the left.
01:06:02.000They don't want information out there.
01:06:44.000But clearly, if someone like Gary Sinise is coming on the show and you see his Lieutenant Dan Foundation where he entertains the troops, you can probably guess where he lines up.
01:06:52.000He just doesn't want to be ugly politically.
01:06:54.000And you can guess any other celebrities who we often have on where they line up.
01:06:57.000But it's true, there are way, way more who are in the closet.
01:07:00.000There's way more, and it's just they're lending, they're giving way to this culture of silencing and this radical swing to the left that we see.
01:07:07.000And it's just kind of like at some point you're allowing and you're almost...
01:07:10.000At one point, are we kind of guilty too?
01:07:31.000Let me draw a hypothetical scenario out for you.
01:07:35.000Okay, Google, if 50% of those people who didn't think it was that offensive, let's say it were just 25, let's say it were only 30% of people.
01:07:43.000If they actually said something, if they actually said, hold on, we really don't think that's offensive, the guy wouldn't have been run out on a rail.
01:07:54.000We wouldn't have the problem with YouTube.
01:07:55.000We wouldn't have the problem with Facebook.
01:07:56.000If people in the entertainment industry, when you look at them when they're polled individually, when you look at people behind closed doors and they say, yeah, man, I really agree with you on this.
01:08:01.000If they spoke up, we wouldn't all have to mutter these things.
01:08:05.000We wouldn't all have to be behind closed doors.
01:08:07.000And I think it's also, you know, this is a good example.
01:08:09.000We were at the YouTube conference, the meeting in New York.
01:08:13.000Now, the Daily Wire people, the people who do PragerU, they were there.
01:08:44.000When you work for a think tank, and you go out there, and you say, oh, we're fighting the good fight, and you raise millions upon millions of-- tens of millions of dollars, depending on the think tanks, depending on the nonprofits that are out there.
01:08:52.000Because that's also a big problem with the conservative movement, is it's almost entirely funded by nonprofits.
01:08:56.000Ironically, for people who consider themselves capitalists, they're also cowards when it comes out to taking risks, it seems, as far as people who are forwarding the conservative movement.
01:09:05.000When you raise all this money and you send to your donors, and I know this because I've worked with conservative nonprofits, and I've acted as a consultant to them years ago, and I said, I'm never going to do it again because I'm banging my head against a wall at some point.
01:09:15.000I felt like the Kool-Aid guy trying to run through a wall, only I just shattered.
01:09:20.000Instead of, oh yeah, it was just, oh no, everything just broke.
01:09:23.000It's like the power team, but like if it was me.
01:09:51.000They don't do that, let alone go out of their way to make calls, track people down, send emails, and send these people in positions of power maybe some information that might be uncomfortable.
01:10:00.000They won't even fill out an automatic form.
01:10:02.000And like I said, people who won't stand up, at a certain point you are using, they hide under this veil of politeness.
01:10:07.000And I think we see that from the right.
01:10:08.000And it is true because you do want to be able to engage in conversations.
01:11:02.000Now, I don't need to tell you you're an absolute retard idiot slash you are a waste of oxygen because you believe that, but I can say, no, no, no balls.
01:11:16.000And we hide under this veil of politeness with conservatives.
01:11:19.000And I think it's because we generally are more polite.
01:11:21.000We generally are probably more, I guess I would say, at least professional.
01:11:27.000And sometimes we allow politeness to act as an excuse for cowardice.
01:11:32.000At a certain point, you're no longer being polite when you're not sending in the YouTube forms, when you're not speaking out against Google, but then you're muttering under an anonymous name on Reddit.
01:11:40.000When you'll send us an email, and I know we have a lot of people out there, you'll send us an email saying, oh man, you know, I really wish I could show this in college because they're teaching us this school.
01:11:47.000But how would you go about arguing it?
01:11:49.000How would you try and do it subtly, but I don't want to fail?
01:12:13.000At some point, you simply pointing out biology is going to be offensive to somebody who's going to call in sick because they don't like that you presented their biology, which might lend itself to them being more high-strung in the work environment and calling in sick.
01:12:27.000They took sick days at Google because they said women don't handle stress in the workplace.
01:13:20.000The populist that elects presidents, you see them tired of political correctness.
01:13:24.000At every dinner table across the country, on any given night, guess what?
01:13:28.000You can see people saying, no, no, no, that's not true.
01:13:30.000Well, just in case you speak out against the idea that you can change your biological sex, there's a brother or a cousin or a sister saying, no, I don't agree with that.
01:13:38.000Or there's someone saying, hey, I find it really offensive for you to say that men and women are different.
01:13:42.000There's a dad saying, don't be a dumbass.
01:13:44.000And smacking his son on the back of the head.
01:13:46.000This is occurring all across the country.
01:13:49.000The only place it's not occurring is in positions of power because of cowardice.
01:13:54.000And if nothing else this week, I hope that you see with Google, you see the ramifications.
01:14:11.000We consider ourselves very, very fortunate.
01:14:13.000But there are a lot of other people out there who don't have it.
01:14:16.000And just like Sarah Silverman and these comedians who got by Amy Schumer by being shocked comics and they closed the door behind them, you can't be a conservative, get your way into power by being quiet and then close the door behind you.
01:14:28.000When someone's being run out at Google and 50% of you think it's wrong, You need to say something.
01:14:35.000You can't be in the entertainment industry where James Cromwell comes out and says, you know what, we need to educate conservatives.
01:14:39.000We need to put out more propaganda effectively.
01:14:42.000You can't be a comedian and watch Chelsea Handler say, we need to make it illegal for people to find racist jokes funny.
01:14:47.000At some point, you're no longer being polite.
01:14:54.000And I would love to see more people, specifically in instances like this, the next time a Google incident happens, or whatever develops here from the Google situation.
01:15:04.000That 50%, hey, you know what, how about this?
