Louder with Crowder - WAIT: VIOLA DAVIS' "THE WOMAN KING" WAS PRO-SLAVERY?! | Louder with Crowder

00:00:00.000 Duncan Jert takes it right, Duncan Jert, I found out, Duncan Jert,

00:00:02.000 hold it right there.

00:00:03.000 Computer, give him one, Mr. Duncan is,

00:00:06.000 my own money's bothering me, I have one,

00:00:08.000 Give him a couch or a TV.

00:00:08.000 where is he?

00:00:10.000 A bird or a bird, how do you know she's a bird?

00:00:12.000 Hey, we're about to get to the show and there's a lot to talk about.

00:00:16.000 Trevor Noah, we're going to talk about Dahomey Tribe.

00:00:19.000 There's a woman king. 1.00

00:00:20.000 Hopefully I have that correctly.

00:00:21.000 But I just want to let you know, I will be in Oklahoma City, Saturday, October 4th.

00:00:25.000 Two shows, 6 p.m., 845 p.m.

00:00:27.000 For tickets, you can go to BrickTownComedy.com slash events.

00:00:31.000 And really quickly, I just wanted to bring awareness to this.

00:00:34.000 They have no idea that I'll be doing this.

00:00:35.000 The people who run these clubs across the country, and it's a lot of fun.

00:00:39.000 Dave and I will be doing the big theaters.

00:00:40.000 You can go to lightoffcreditor.com slash tour.

00:00:43.000 You know, 5,000 seats.

00:00:44.000 It's a lot of fun, but there is something to be said for an intimate comedy club setting, and Dave and I often do these clubs in particular.

00:00:50.000 The people who run these have made up their mind that they will not kowtow to the leftist rage mob.

00:00:56.000 Now they have liberals, just so you know, if you go and look at their bookings, but they also have people on the right side of the spectrum, and it's something that they've consciously Decided to do.

00:01:07.000 It's a rarity and honestly, it's allowed me to sort of fall back in love with, you know, the bell that I brought to the ball.

00:01:15.000 That's how I started in my teenage years.

00:01:17.000 Dave has obviously been doing it for a very long time, but it was nerve-wracking.

00:01:21.000 To go out there and have someone record you at a comedy club and decide that they want to cancel you for a joke out of context.

00:01:27.000 So it is nice to have some allies in the industry, and it's a lot of fun to be able to go and actually have an intimate setting.

00:01:32.000 Far fewer tickets, so get them now.

00:01:34.000 They'll probably be sold out by the time you're listening to this.

00:01:36.000 If you're on audio, I apologize.

00:01:37.000 It's uploaded a little bit later, but if you're watching live, October 8th, Oklahoma City, 6 p.m., 845 p.m.

00:01:45.000 You know what?

00:01:46.000 Go to these clubs there, whether me, Dave, whether we're performing or not.

00:01:52.000 You want to support some businesses that you know don't hate you and won't sucker punch you?

00:01:55.000 Well, you know what?

00:01:56.000 They're good people and they'll never sing their praises from the rooftop, so I wanted to do it for them.

00:02:02.000 Thanks.

00:02:02.000 See you in Oklahoma City.

00:02:09.000 Hey guys.

00:02:10.000 Whistleblower22 here.

00:02:12.000 So, long sleeves.

00:02:14.000 Why does Steven Crowder wear them so often?

00:02:18.000 Well, I've put all the clues together, and the only possible answer is... Steven Crowder has twig arms.

00:02:25.000 I was able to find this in an archived bullet post.

00:02:30.000 Overwhelming.

00:02:30.000 Finally, I have concrete confirmation on social media by that kind of black dude on the show.

00:02:36.000 My mother is Japanese and my father is Chinese.

00:02:40.000 If you are interested in Japanese...

00:02:42.000 Finally, I have concrete confirmation on social media by that kind of black dude on the show. 1.00

00:02:48.000 Looks like his days of owning the libs are at an end now that everybody knows he's a bathing male. 1.00

00:03:08.000 Outro Music.

00:03:09.000 Thank you, Cypher!

00:03:24.000 Ooh, that is delicious, Toolman!

00:03:51.000 You're right.

00:03:51.000 That Ecuadorian honey is nice.

00:03:53.000 Yeah, dude.

00:03:54.000 He brought it in today.

00:03:55.000 No, it's not Ecuadorian.

00:03:56.000 It's local, but I can't say where.

00:03:59.000 And why the hell did you bring it to me?

00:04:01.000 You replaced the local honey that I use to support a mama with a different? 0.99

00:04:04.000 You just were basically saying my honey sucks. 0.74

00:04:05.000 With a better local honey. 1.00

00:04:07.000 You're off by a continent.

00:04:11.000 We are off the beam already.

00:04:13.000 Glad to be with you.

00:04:14.000 Busy, busy week.

00:04:15.000 Busy weekend.

00:04:17.000 A lot has happened.

00:04:17.000 My question to you, right off the bat, is who do you think is going to replace Trevor Noah?

00:04:21.000 Right?

00:04:22.000 Okay.

00:04:22.000 He's retiring.

00:04:23.000 I know many of you don't care, but some people do.

00:04:25.000 That's going to transition into The Woman King. 1.00

00:04:27.000 Everyone's talking about it, but they're missing a few key points here.

00:04:31.000 A lot of people, and Oliver did a segment on this with museums about how, you know, the British colonialists, right, they have items from like Peru or items from Africa, artifacts, and that sort of appropriation, we need to give them back.

00:04:43.000 But I also want to know, what happened with the Peruvians?

00:04:47.000 And the people that they conquered.

00:04:49.000 Have they preserved all of their artifacts?

00:04:52.000 And that brought me to the Woman King, where, of course, slavery is a blight. 0.95

00:04:56.000 Slavery is awful.

00:04:56.000 It's a stain throughout human history.

00:04:58.000 But there are more slaves now than ever in recorded history.

00:05:00.000 And the Woman King just ignores the fact that the Dahomeys, some of the biggest slave traders, slave owners, throughout the history of mankind. 1.00

00:05:06.000 I don't know how that ties into a woke agenda here.

00:05:09.000 This is the thing is, if you actually want to look at the scales of economy, the United States was not built off the backs of slavery.

00:05:15.000 We've heard that a lot.

00:05:17.000 Other continents were, and still are.

00:05:20.000 Not saying that there's a moral equivalence.

00:05:22.000 Hey, yeah, but, but, yeah, but!

00:05:26.000 Also, Washington Post is the enemy of the people.

00:05:27.000 Just to be clear, they have a new poll out that says you're racist. 0.59

00:05:30.000 MAGA Republicans are racist, and they employ some intellectual fallacies with their buddies in a polling firm. 0.98

00:05:37.000 Really silly questions, like, are you not not racist? 1.00

00:05:40.000 That kind of stuff. 0.98

00:05:41.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:05:43.000 Just, I was watching this, I was reading this poll on Washington Post, and I saw it, you know, regurgitated in the media, and went, are they serious with this?

00:05:49.000 But this is the goal, right?

00:05:51.000 They want to silence you.

00:05:52.000 They say, well, hold on a second, not all Republicans, just MAGA Republicans.

00:05:55.000 Right.

00:05:56.000 Well, the biggest bills that Joe Biden has been involved with this administration that have been passed, not one Republican voted for it.

00:06:01.000 Not one.

00:06:03.000 That includes the wimpified RINOs. 1.00

00:06:06.000 So who are they working with?

00:06:08.000 When they say, hey, the extremists are just the people who won't work with me, no one will.

00:06:12.000 Many Democrats won't work with them on these radical agendas.

00:06:14.000 So, that and more.

00:06:17.000 But first, Gerald A., how are you?

00:06:18.000 I'm well, how are you, sir?

00:06:19.000 I'm good.

00:06:20.000 Yeah?

00:06:20.000 Yeah, it's been a busy weekend.

00:06:22.000 Yeah.

00:06:23.000 You got sick?

00:06:24.000 I did.

00:06:25.000 It wasn't the COVID.

00:06:26.000 No?

00:06:26.000 Not that I know of.

00:06:27.000 Well, you know what?

00:06:27.000 How are you sure?

00:06:29.000 I'm just fine, so maybe it was.

00:06:30.000 He was like one of those gourds, the pumpkins with the bumps on them.

00:06:34.000 It freaks me out.

00:06:35.000 It's the monkeypox edition for the holidays. 0.61

00:06:37.000 You guys can comment below.

00:06:38.000 What are those pumpkins that I'm thinking of?

00:06:39.000 I don't know if it's a squash.

00:06:40.000 Are they gourds with all the bumps?

00:06:42.000 I think so.

00:06:42.000 But I saw one that looked like a pumpkin.

00:06:44.000 Gourds are usually longer, right?

00:06:45.000 Bad timing.

00:06:46.000 Yeah.

00:06:47.000 I don't know what I call them.

00:06:48.000 I know what I do with them, but I don't know what I call them. 0.99

00:06:50.000 Who had sex with a gourd? 0.99

00:06:51.000 Me. 0.99

00:06:52.000 Questions need to be answered.

00:06:54.000 I guess you'd have to ask that Norwegian techno music festival.

00:06:58.000 Nary an answer to be found.

00:06:59.000 You should see their salt lamp.

00:07:00.000 Also, you know him, you love him.

00:07:01.000 Fastest man on his feet.

00:07:03.000 Quickest wit in the West.

00:07:04.000 You can follow him on the Twitter and Instagram.

00:07:05.000 Dave Landa, how are you?

00:07:06.000 Ahoy, good.

00:07:07.000 I'm good.

00:07:07.000 Yourself?

00:07:08.000 Oh, you have a Wu-Tang shirt, right?

00:07:09.000 I do.

00:07:10.000 I went to the Wu-Tang Nas concert.

00:07:11.000 That's Nas, not Lil Nas.

00:07:13.000 How was he allowed to do that?

00:07:15.000 I don't know, but I'm sure Nas is pissed.

00:07:16.000 Yes, I've got to imagine.

00:07:17.000 Oh, great.

00:07:19.000 This guy injects his own blood into Nikes.

00:07:24.000 Yes.

00:07:25.000 Well, they're limited edition.

00:07:26.000 Well, yes, because Nike told them to stop.

00:07:28.000 Yes.

00:07:30.000 You can't just buy our sneakers, pour a vial of your own blood in them, and call them limited.

00:07:35.000 This is illegal.

00:07:36.000 Why?

00:07:38.000 Yeah, only children's blood belong on our shoes.

00:07:40.000 Yes, and it is dangerous!

00:07:43.000 And then Apple said, hold my beer.

00:07:44.000 All right.

00:07:45.000 Before we get to our entertainment minute, we talk about The Woman King.

00:07:50.000 Friday, September 30th, we didn't have a show obviously, Nancy Pelosi had this to say about sending immigrants to sanctuary cities. 1.00

00:07:56.000 Titties.

00:07:57.000 We have a shortage of workers in our country, and you see even in Florida, some of the farmers and the growers saying, why are you shipping these immigrants up north?

00:08:09.000 We need them to pick the crops down here. 1.00

00:08:15.000 Wow.

00:08:16.000 You know when you talk about the race from the left, the bigotry of soft expectations?

00:08:22.000 Yeah.

00:08:22.000 That's just good old bigotry bigotry.

00:08:24.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:08:25.000 That's straight up.

00:08:26.000 She spoke to zero farmers to get that quote, by the way. 0.95

00:08:29.000 That was her. 0.59

00:08:30.000 Slave traders. 0.66

00:08:31.000 You know how many people said that?

00:08:32.000 They're like, why are you letting him go up north?

00:08:34.000 Can you imagine if Donald Trump said that Unbelievable.

00:08:42.000 No, but seriously, can you imagine if Donald Trump, can you imagine if Greg Abbott, can you imagine if anyone on the right said that?

00:08:49.000 For crying out loud, we got in trouble because we said that black farmers receiving these giant government subsidies would have spinners on their John Deere.

00:08:54.000 People are like, how dare you?

00:08:56.000 She just said that! 1.00

00:08:58.000 Latinos—Latinx, sorry, because she's an asshole—that they're needed for picking! 1.00

00:09:02.000 Not a joke. 1.00

00:09:02.000 Yeah, not at all. 1.00

00:09:04.000 Somehow when you mix Botox and Oxycontin, it just produces that.

00:09:07.000 Yes!

00:09:08.000 No, she's a teetotaler, haven't you heard?

00:09:10.000 Oh, right, right.

00:09:10.000 Yes.

00:09:11.000 She doesn't touch a drop.

00:09:12.000 I love how she, like, pauses at the end, shaking her head, like, right?

00:09:15.000 Yeah?

00:09:15.000 Right, guys?

00:09:16.000 Why is no one clapping at my terrible statement?

00:09:20.000 Why are all your heads doing this?

00:09:21.000 What does this mean?

00:09:23.000 No, that's what they said.

00:09:24.000 It's time to wrap up, is that what that means?

00:09:29.000 Where's my martini?

00:09:31.000 My speechwriter's crying.

00:09:35.000 They're needed for picking.

00:09:36.000 Hey, Latinos, and this is, by the way, why you see these unbelievable gains made with the Latino community, also the fact that they want children on puberty blockers and a lot of Latino Catholics not really on board with that, but because this is what they think of you.

00:09:47.000 If you're Latino, you're watching this, Latina, Latino, Hispanic, whatever term you want to use.

00:09:50.000 I'm not going to use Latinx.

00:09:51.000 You can use Latinx if you want to.

00:09:52.000 I don't want to.

00:09:53.000 Comment below.

00:09:55.000 Have you known that this is what they always think? And I genuinely don't think that. Here's

00:09:59.000 the thing. I genuinely don't think that of Hispanic people, that, ah, they're only good 1.00

00:10:02.000 for picking. They're only good for manual labor. I don't think that at all. That's not something

00:10:06.000 that would even enter my thought process. Sure, a disproportionate number of them do,

00:10:09.000 but I've always been under the impression that's because many of them are first-generation

00:10:12.000 immigrants. They come here, then they work up, just like the Irish-Americans, just like 1.00

00:10:15.000 Italian-Americans, just like many Jewish-Americans. You have different generations of immigrants,

00:10:18.000 and then they end up running their own stores, right? Bodegas, very common in New York City,

00:10:22.000 and they give their children a leg up because these are the opportunities they have when they

00:10:25.000 come to this country. I never thought...

00:10:27.000 And this is how you know the left does not believe in class mobility.

00:10:30.000 They believe that you are set.

00:10:32.000 In Stone, you have concrete, you come here as a picker, your kids will be a picker, you're Latino, you're Hispanic, therefore you work manual labor out there in the fields. 0.99

00:10:39.000 It's just not something that any of us here believe, and you know she does!

00:10:44.000 Anyway, that's all I have to say about that.

00:10:45.000 Well yeah, they're running out of cards to play.

00:10:47.000 Right.

00:10:47.000 Now they're just saying how they feel.

00:10:48.000 Right.

00:10:52.000 And it's okay because nobody ever calls them out on it.

00:10:54.000 It's like, oh this is fine, we can just say this, and people will be like, But they won't say anything. 0.58

00:10:58.000 They say it in the software where they say, hey, you know, Republicans don't care about you black voters.

00:11:03.000 What do they mean?

00:11:04.000 We'll offer you EBT.

00:11:05.000 We'll create a greater social safety net because you need that, right?

00:11:08.000 We want to pay you if you're a single mother, right, per child. 1.00

00:11:11.000 You get it.

00:11:11.000 You need that.

00:11:13.000 It's the unwritten rule, right?

00:11:13.000 We get it.

00:11:14.000 Black people, you need us, the Democrat Party, because this is how we see you.

00:11:18.000 They don't often say it blatantly, but you see it play out through policies.

00:11:23.000 And now with Hispanics, she just said it.

00:11:26.000 But they're supposed to stay with the Medellin cartels and make the cocaine. 0.59

00:11:30.000 Right.

00:11:30.000 Right?

00:11:31.000 Who's gonna put the heads on turtles? 1.00

00:11:32.000 Huh?

00:11:34.000 How do you send a message if they're up north?

00:11:34.000 What?

00:11:37.000 I need another lift.

00:11:40.000 Which I'm not- that- I have many complaints with Nancy Pelosi. 0.86

00:11:43.000 The lift job, not chief amongst them.

00:11:45.000 No.

00:11:46.000 No, there's two decent things about her. 1.00

00:11:46.000 Good work. 1.00

00:11:48.000 Yes. 1.00

00:11:49.000 Your boobs are huge. 0.99

00:11:49.000 Sometimes when you start in pottery, like you start with the clay, you're out to make like a beautiful vase, and sometimes it's just- it just ends up being a pot. 0.99

00:11:55.000 Yeah.

00:11:56.000 Yeah, the rest of the vase is a mess.

00:11:57.000 Yes.

00:11:58.000 And you give the kid a C-minus.

00:11:59.000 Yes.

00:12:00.000 I'm really just hoping that she stops getting... Like, I'm kind of hoping that AOC... You saw her speak at that church. 0.72

00:12:05.000 Maybe you guys can bring it up.

00:12:06.000 She spoke at that church and she was a little bit nipply out.

00:12:10.000 What?

00:12:10.000 I don't think that AOC is an unattractive woman.

00:12:14.000 I think she can be a pretty woman. 1.00

00:12:16.000 Okay.

00:12:16.000 I can't wait for the day that You know, Father Time just pulls the ripcord and... Because I want... Because I... Right now I just... I just hate her insides.

00:12:29.000 I want to be able to despise all of her equally. 1.00

00:12:31.000 Yeah, she just has the eyes where you feel like one day you'd wake up and be like, where's my penis? 1.00

00:12:36.000 Right. 1.00

00:12:37.000 And then she'd be holding it.

00:12:38.000 Yes.

00:12:39.000 Throwing it out a car window. 0.97

00:12:40.000 But I want to be able to despise all of her, not just her inner ugliness. 0.89

00:12:43.000 Eventually. 0.60

00:12:45.000 Oh, it will come out.

00:12:46.000 It will happen.

00:12:47.000 She'll hit the wall. 1.00

00:12:48.000 Father Time is undefeated.

00:12:49.000 All right, that brings us to this week's Entertainment Minute.

00:12:52.000 So again, my question is, why do you think late night is tanking?

00:13:05.000 Uh, we kind of know this, David, having worked, uh, in this, uh... Before I go to the time to close, Trevor Noah, of course, is announcing that he's, uh, leaving, uh, The Daily Show.

00:13:13.000 Oh, I think we have a clip.

00:13:14.000 Here we go.

00:13:15.000 Trevor Noah leaving.

00:13:15.000 It has been seven years since we started The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.

00:13:21.000 Yeah, this week is our anniversary.

00:13:26.000 And... And I realized that after the seven years, um, my time is up.

00:13:31.000 I, uh...

00:13:33.000 Yeah, but in the most beautiful way, honestly.

00:13:37.000 And I want to say thank you to the audience for an amazing seven years.

00:13:40.000 It's been wild.

00:13:41.000 It's been too wild.

00:13:44.000 Seven years of bleeding them dry.

00:13:46.000 It's been seven years since the Daily Show with Trevor Noah.

00:13:50.000 Because everyone's like, oh, the Daily Show?

00:13:51.000 Where's Jon Stewart?

00:13:52.000 You're the underperforming one.

00:13:52.000 Oh, you mean you.

00:13:54.000 Alright.

00:13:55.000 Who do you think is going to take over? 0.86

00:13:57.000 Well, that's my question to everyone else out there.

00:13:58.000 Who do you think is going to take over and why do you think Late Night is taking over?

00:14:02.000 I don't know that anyone's going to take over.

00:14:03.000 I think they might just do away with the Daily Show or have some new kind of incarnation.

00:14:06.000 I think Roy Wood Jr.

00:14:07.000 is great, honestly.

00:14:09.000 He's good on the show.

00:14:10.000 Yeah, I have heard whispers, though.

00:14:12.000 Bill Kilmer?

00:14:13.000 Yes.

00:14:15.000 Hello, welcome to the daily Stephen Hawking's computer. Yes, it would be funny

00:14:15.000 Frank Stallone?

00:14:25.000 Yes.

00:14:28.000 Jordan Peterson?

00:14:29.000 The kids from Make-A-Wish?

00:14:30.000 Nobody!

00:14:32.000 Perhaps just a stomach cancer?

00:14:34.000 It's the adorable blanket boy?

00:14:36.000 Yes.

00:14:37.000 What?

00:14:39.000 Look, I'm not the one who's doing the hiring.

00:14:41.000 The point is there are a lot of possibilities if the hurdle to clear is just funnier.

00:14:48.000 No, we're just looking for funnier.

00:14:49.000 Yes.

00:14:49.000 We're just looking for funnier.

00:14:50.000 The world is your oyster.

00:14:51.000 Yes, exactly.

00:14:52.000 Also could be replaced by an oyster.

00:14:54.000 Yes.

00:14:55.000 An old pair of shoes.

00:14:56.000 Yes.

00:14:58.000 They also might just run a Bluoyster called Best Of Hits.

00:15:02.000 Yeah.

00:15:03.000 The point is, there are a lot of possibilities.

00:15:05.000 Just be open-minded, Comedy Central.

00:15:08.000 Now, for people who don't know, The Daily Show, at its peak, averaged about 2.5 million nightly viewers with Jon Stewart.

00:15:12.000 Which is great.

00:15:13.000 They lost about two-thirds of the audience in their Trevor Noah, with some episodes as low as 400,000.

00:15:18.000 Now, I also understand a lot of them come through plays with clips online, so the whole sort of ecosystem has changed.

00:15:25.000 That being said, people aren't watching the whole show.

00:15:28.000 You've heard me talk about with this show, we always go by the number per, show per show numbers.

00:15:31.000 Right.

00:15:31.000 And we have, that never includes the bits that you guys can go and subscribe on YouTube, Crowder Bits, or the Instagram videos, right?

00:15:36.000 It's how many people are tuning into the full hour show or Mug Club, you know, two hour show.

00:15:41.000 Those numbers are really, really bad with Trevor Noah, because the retention isn't good.

00:15:44.000 Which means you can kind of trick someone with a clickbait title, but if they're not sticking around, it's also hard to get sponsorships in front of them.

00:15:51.000 And Trevor Noah has been bad for business.

00:15:53.000 And I would argue because he's unfunny and untalented.

00:15:55.000 Been bad for a long time, too.

00:15:57.000 I never understood the hiring.

00:15:57.000 Yes.

00:16:00.000 And some people like him.

00:16:00.000 No.

00:16:02.000 I don't know who.

00:16:04.000 Oh, you're right, I do.

00:16:05.000 I take it back.

00:16:05.000 Yes, you do.

00:16:06.000 Yes.

00:16:07.000 When he's like, I would like to thank the audience, I'm like, the people you paid to come in and you told them when to laugh and when to clap?

00:16:13.000 Those guys?

00:16:13.000 Yeah, thank the signer!

00:16:15.000 I was going to use that here.

00:16:16.000 Thank the crowd animator.

00:16:17.000 You should be the highest paid person on that set.

00:16:19.000 I was going to use a card term on my comment, then I realized how inappropriate it would have been.

00:16:24.000 That saved your life there.

00:16:25.000 The warm-up act is just a car wreck with small children.

00:16:28.000 That's how they warm people up.

00:16:29.000 They're like, yeah, there we go, let's set the stage.

00:16:31.000 So this is why I think that late night is tanking, by the way.

00:16:33.000 This is from a New York Post article.

00:16:35.000 They said people were still joking about Trump.

00:16:37.000 So Jimmy Kimmel.

00:16:38.000 This is one of his most recent quotes.

00:16:40.000 Trump's ranking on the Forbes wealthiest list would be his inmate number as well.

00:16:43.000 Stephen Colbert.

00:16:44.000 Again, some of these are recent jokes. 0.99

00:16:46.000 Called Trump a horny cockatoo. 0.99

00:16:47.000 Jimmy Fallon. 0.99

00:16:47.000 Maybe Trump should help out with Ukraine since he's had so many affairs with foreigners. 0.99

00:16:52.000 Like, this is the problem.

00:16:53.000 It became a comedy witch hunt with Donald Trump, unfortunately.

00:16:56.000 And they used to say, like, there's nothing funny about the Obama administration.

00:16:59.000 All of a sudden they couldn't make fun of those in power.

00:17:01.000 Then Donald Trump.

00:17:02.000 And now they have nothing to address?

00:17:05.000 With Joe Biden, you have nothing to address.

00:17:07.000 With Kamala Harris, nothing to address.

00:17:08.000 With Pelosi, AOC, I mean, for crying out loud, it's just, it's intellectually dishonest.

00:17:13.000 I know we get flack for making fun of Donald Trump sometimes, or for making fun of some people on the right, but this is a comedy show.

00:17:19.000 Well, that's what you're supposed to do, and these guys got lazy.

00:17:21.000 They thought, oh, I can just bash Trump forever, and people were just like, yay, that's still not funny.

00:17:26.000 Right.

00:17:26.000 You're still not doing your job.

00:17:28.000 There's Iranian sketch shows doing stuff on.

00:17:32.000 I mean, come on.

00:17:33.000 And that's just security camera footage.

00:17:33.000 Clearly.

00:17:34.000 And this is the first time also they're talking about canceling SNL.

00:17:38.000 Actually talking about canceling it.

00:17:39.000 It's too expensive.

00:17:40.000 It's too expensive and here's what happens.

00:17:42.000 The ecosystem has changed.

00:17:44.000 And this is why we've talked about there are only five companies that really control all of media.

00:17:48.000 I've been around here since 2006.

00:17:48.000 YouTube.

00:17:50.000 My brother was one of the first partners, I believe, in 2006 or 2007.

00:17:52.000 I did non-political videos in 2007.

00:17:54.000 And the first were 2008, 2009, if I'm not mistaken.

00:17:59.000 But back then, everyone could post something.

00:18:01.000 The whole idea was, hey, there are no more gatekeepers.

00:18:04.000 When I was at Fox News, I've talked about this, they actually removed my own guest segments that I would upload to my channel because it's a fad.

00:18:10.000 So now they go, oh wait a second, we're behind the eight ball and we can't compete on this playing field.

00:18:14.000 So they spend a bunch of money on YouTube so that they can dictate what the advertiser-friendly guidelines need to be.

00:18:22.000 And that's the problem that you're seeing right now with Trevor Noah.

00:18:25.000 It just doesn't work.

00:18:26.000 And with SNL, all the best sketch people, the people who are really good at impressions, the people who are really good comedians, guess what?

00:18:30.000 They can't afford the pay cut to go to SNL.

00:18:32.000 It's not like it used to be.

00:18:33.000 No, it's very cheap.

00:18:35.000 Very low to write.

00:18:37.000 Well, especially the amount of stuff that you have to turn around.

00:18:39.000 It's like, why would you need 40 sketch pitches?

00:18:42.000 Right.

00:18:43.000 And they're not getting the best of the best.

00:18:45.000 Once upon a time, this was the big show, so you had the Martin Shorts, you had the Bill Murrays, you had the Norm MacDonalds, you had the Dennis Millers, you had the Adam Sanders, Mike Myers, Dana Carveys.

00:18:56.000 Now, those people will not be going to SNL, and the problem is they still have these giant, bloated corporate business models.

00:19:02.000 They have to sustain that.

00:19:04.000 And it's just not.

00:19:05.000 And then you combine that with the downgrade to someone who's physically painfully unfunny, like I feel it on my insides when I watch Trevor Noah.

00:19:14.000 Like you have to watch it from between your fingers.

00:19:16.000 Yeah.

00:19:17.000 And it's just a recipe for disaster.

00:19:19.000 So it's actually now we thank him, though we see him as a worthy adversary.

00:19:23.000 Apparently not as much as we had hoped.

00:19:25.000 Trevor Noah, time to close.

00:19:27.000 Why didn't they get an American to host? 0.63

00:19:28.000 And again, Comedy Central tried, and those people also declined.

00:19:32.000 So once more, a job Americans rejected is now being done by an immigrant. 1.00

00:19:36.000 Laughter and applause Time to close

00:19:43.000 Endings and beginnings Are ending and beginning now

00:19:50.000 Awesome! 1.00

00:19:51.000 Now I can show my dick to strangers at night. 1.00

00:19:54.000 Like, you're looking cute, Mr. President. 1.00

00:19:56.000 Donald Trump, does he remind you a little bit of Egyptian leaders?

00:20:00.000 You were using racism to be entertaining.

00:20:02.000 Maybe Aboriginal women do special things, like jump on top of you and just be like, whoa, whoa, whoa. 1.00

00:20:06.000 I know that it's time for things to close.

00:20:12.000 I know that it's time for things to close.

00:20:18.000 I'm going to go.

00:20:26.000 Trevor Noah is now a senior fellow at the Harvard Institute.

00:20:29.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:20:30.000 They can't all go there.

00:20:31.000 Well, apparently they can.

00:20:33.000 Yes, they can.

00:20:34.000 How much you want to bet they had a conversation with Trevor like, Trevor, look, obviously we're going to fire you.

00:20:41.000 You know why you're here.

00:20:42.000 Or you can resign.

00:20:44.000 And he's like, it's ending in the most beautiful way.

00:20:47.000 I don't understand this.

00:20:47.000 Right.

00:20:48.000 Is that with four audience members going, what?

00:20:51.000 What?

00:20:52.000 Huh?

00:20:53.000 Oh.

00:20:54.000 He said there'd be free chicken.

00:20:55.000 What?

00:20:55.000 Right.

00:20:56.000 Oh, it's Trevor.

00:20:56.000 No chicken!

00:20:57.000 Hey, who's that guy?

00:20:58.000 It's like Pagoda and what's his name in Bobble Rocket.

00:21:01.000 Who is that man?

00:21:02.000 That's Trevor Noah, man.

00:21:02.000 What?

00:21:04.000 Come on.

00:21:05.000 Where's Craig Kilbourne?

00:21:06.000 Right.

00:21:09.000 Uh, I think Token Allen, by the way, found some pictures there of the AOC.

00:21:12.000 Oh yeah, speaking of people that we can be making fun of instead.

00:21:14.000 The great Nipley one.

00:21:15.000 Right.

00:21:15.000 So this is AOC, a Facebook paid ad.

00:21:18.000 Oh, this is from a while ago?

00:21:19.000 I'm gonna have to zoom this bad boy in.

00:21:21.000 Yes.

00:21:22.000 Yes, please do.

00:21:23.000 Yeah.

00:21:24.000 She reviewed this and said yes.

00:21:24.000 Did you see that?

00:21:24.000 Oh.

00:21:26.000 That's a pretty bad.

00:21:27.000 She's running that as an advertisement. 0.96

00:21:27.000 Run that. 0.96

00:21:30.000 That was extra.

00:21:31.000 Not even attractive.

00:21:32.000 She picked that.

00:21:32.000 You're not the best.

00:21:33.000 I gotta be honest.

00:21:33.000 I don't think there's anything wrong with them.

00:21:35.000 I'm not saying there's anything wrong.

00:21:36.000 I'm not saying that I wouldn't sample.

00:21:38.000 Stop it.

00:21:41.000 By the way, also, we have a clip.

00:21:43.000 This is why a lot of women wear sweaters in church. 1.00

00:21:45.000 It's just an idea.

00:21:46.000 AOC was raising money for, I believe, like, one of those left-leaning churches.

00:21:49.000 Do you have that clip?

00:21:50.000 Is it with her in the taupe dress?

00:21:52.000 Uh, I think this is taupe, yeah.

00:21:53.000 First Baptist Church in Corona.

00:21:54.000 Could be.

00:21:55.000 You could call it sand sable.

00:21:56.000 We don't need to be sticklers.

00:21:57.000 You colorblind as well?

00:21:58.000 No.

00:21:59.000 Beige.

00:21:59.000 I just don't know.

00:22:00.000 Beige is fine.

00:22:01.000 Nude.

00:22:02.000 Let's see it.

00:22:03.000 There it is.

00:22:04.000 Oh my lord, I take it back.

00:22:06.000 And Tokunawa told me, I don't think this is the nipple video at the church.

00:22:09.000 I'm like, how could that be anything other than the nipple video at the church?

00:22:12.000 Do you think a room full of politicians are even listening to a word of this?

00:22:17.000 That's not at a church.

00:22:19.000 There was a different video at a church.

00:22:21.000 It's about raising money for a church, I think.

00:22:24.000 Keep in mind, I'm watching a small monitor and I can see the tea saucer nipples. 0.67

00:22:28.000 And I just want to know, like, she's wearing a bra. 0.99

00:22:30.000 How does that happen?

00:22:30.000 How do you miss that?

00:22:32.000 Do they have... are the bras ribbed? 1.00

00:22:35.000 It can happen.

00:22:36.000 Yes, I think so.

00:22:37.000 They've got to be.

00:22:38.000 It can happen through...

00:22:39.000 Yes.

00:22:40.000 Women you can comment below.

00:22:41.000 That seems pretty obvious.

00:22:42.000 Seems like you wouldn't miss it.

00:22:43.000 And then she's of course running it as an advertisement on Facebook. 0.82

00:22:45.000 She's saying exclusively, use the nipple pictures. 1.00

00:22:45.000 It's rare. 1.00

00:22:48.000 Hey look, I've had mine poked through a Christmas sweater.

00:22:51.000 Well, yes, that's because you're only wearing a Christmas sweater.

00:22:53.000 That's true.

00:22:54.000 And I don't know how you do that.

00:22:55.000 And I've also cut a hole. 0.98

00:22:56.000 And Dave, that wasn't your nipple. 1.00

00:22:58.000 No. 0.99

00:22:59.000 And those are pants.

00:23:00.000 And that was a public stall.

00:23:01.000 By the way, it's a live show Monday through Thursday at 10 a.m.

00:23:04.000 If you want to know how to tune in, just tune in here on YouTube.

00:23:04.000 Eastern.

00:23:07.000 Nothing would make me happier than if you all went over to Rumble or Mug Club.

00:23:10.000 Today we'll be playing They Don't Make Them Like They Used To.

00:23:12.000 I can't even tell you which film it is because we can't talk about it on YouTube.

00:23:14.000 So you can go to Rumble, you can download the audio podcast, or loudearthcrowder.com slash Mug Club.

00:23:19.000 99 annually you get this wonderful hand-etched mug, but you also get access to a whole catalog of shows, military, veterans, Military veteran students, enter in that word, you get $30 off.

00:23:30.000 I believe it's $30, right?

00:23:31.000 Yeah.

00:23:32.000 Okay.

00:23:32.000 $69.

00:23:33.000 Yeah, man.

00:23:34.000 Yeah, man.

00:23:35.000 Oh, yeah.

00:23:36.000 So, I think, have we gotten that all out of our system?

00:23:39.000 I think so.

00:23:40.000 The AOC thing?

00:23:40.000 Sure.

00:23:41.000 Okay.

00:23:42.000 I mean, yeah, I guess.

00:23:43.000 I can't believe that... Oh, boy.

00:23:45.000 Well, it's back again.

00:23:46.000 That's not a flattering picture.

00:23:48.000 Again, I don't think it's fair to say, because I don't like her, that she's not pretty in many ways.

00:23:54.000 I don't think she's an unattractive woman. 1.00

00:23:56.000 I think that's fine.

00:23:57.000 I'm just saying that's not a test.

00:23:59.000 I'm waiting for that biological clock to stop working and then I can be disgusted with everything.

00:24:04.000 What is she, Brazilian? 1.00

00:24:06.000 Is it just literally going to be one day to the next?

00:24:08.000 What are you talking about Brazilians?

00:24:11.000 You meant to say Polish or Italian women.

00:24:14.000 It's like 36.

00:24:16.000 Brazilian women are the same way. 1.00

00:24:18.000 What?

00:24:19.000 Let's just admonish him.

00:24:20.000 He is wrong about that.

00:24:22.000 Brazilian women are known as the most... He just picked the most beautiful woman on the planet. 1.00

00:24:25.000 Yeah, that's not true.

00:24:26.000 How about that when they get old?

00:24:27.000 Yeah, what do you want to pick next?

00:24:28.000 Argentina because they only have all the Miss Universe titles under their name for crying out loud?

00:24:32.000 When they're young, yes. 0.88

00:24:33.000 Gross! 1.00

00:24:33.000 Do you know how I know you're gay? 1.00

00:24:35.000 How? 0.96

00:24:36.000 Like that.

00:24:38.000 Brazilian women are gorgeous. 1.00

00:24:40.000 Yes.

00:24:40.000 I do admit that... Until... Well, until one day they're the gypsy from thinner.

00:24:45.000 See?

00:24:46.000 There you go.

00:24:46.000 That's my point.

00:24:49.000 And you guys admonished me.

00:24:51.000 See?

00:24:52.000 See?

00:24:52.000 That's what I'm saying!

00:24:54.000 I'm just saying.

00:24:55.000 Okay.

00:24:56.000 I know exactly who you are.

00:25:02.000 Don't let me laugh, because I have to introduce the slavery in Woman King, and I don't want people to see me laughing when I'm talking about slavery, because slavery's not funny. 0.99

00:25:11.000 No.

00:25:12.000 It's the movie you're laughing at.

00:25:13.000 But the gypsy in Thinner is. 1.00

00:25:15.000 So, you all know about the Woman King.

00:25:19.000 None of you like it.

00:25:19.000 All right.

00:25:21.000 We've established that.

00:25:22.000 Not a clue.

00:25:23.000 But here's the thing.

00:25:24.000 Not just because it's woke and not because it's this, you know, sort of feminist tale and... Okay, we'll do a review of Hocus Pocus 2 tomorrow.

00:25:31.000 Hey, there's a drag show in it. 1.00

00:25:33.000 What?

00:25:34.000 Yes. 0.99

00:25:34.000 They tried to check every woke box on Hocus... And the first one was a steaming pile of dog crap, so the sequel is even worse. 0.99

00:25:40.000 I mean, that's a feat! 0.98

00:25:42.000 I have a friend in it.

00:25:43.000 Dude, I'm sorry.

00:25:45.000 I've been in a ton of crap as well, so don't. 0.56

00:25:48.000 You ever see Greek on ABC Family? 0.98

00:25:50.000 Oh yeah, you were in that. 1.00

00:25:51.000 It's crap. 1.00

00:25:53.000 Now, so it's the woman king. 0.99

00:25:57.000 Now this film of course tells the story of the uh, the uh, ago- agoji?

00:26:01.000 The agoji It's this all-female fighting unit in the African Kingdom, and by the way, this sort of spreads across different countries, just to be clear, so we'll be talking about the tribes.

00:26:01.000 I believe.

00:26:10.000 So, lest you try and, you know, lawyer us on this, I understand that it's not just based on geographical borders, but the tribes specifically, or the people, the Dahomey.

00:26:18.000 So, here's just sort of for people who don't know what the film is all about.

00:26:24.000 When it rains, our ancestors weep for the pain we have felt in the dark halls of ships bound for distant shores.

00:26:37.000 When the wind blows, our ancestors push us to march into battle against those who enslave us.

00:26:44.000 When it thunders, our ancestors, the man we ripped the shackles of doubt from

00:26:52.000 our minds and fight with courage.

00:26:54.000 We fight not just for today, but for the future.

00:27:00.000 Where you can enslave a record number of people there too.

00:27:03.000 We are the spear of victory. We are the blade of freedom.

00:27:18.000 I know it's a film, there's some creative license that's taken,

00:27:21.000 but just so you know, statistically, most of those people there would have been slaves.

00:27:24.000 Yes.

00:27:26.000 Just to be clear.

00:27:26.000 Just like I know you thought, you know, Beauty and the Beast was true to form, historically.

00:27:30.000 Mary J. Blige, who folds into a bookcase, whatever the hell she is, an armoire, whatever she is. 0.64

00:27:30.000 No, no. 0.64

00:27:33.000 Yeah, yeah, armoire.

00:27:34.000 Whatever they call it, like a powder, room powder.

00:27:36.000 A buffet.

00:27:37.000 Yes, exactly.

00:27:38.000 She would have been, uh, she would have been a slave as well in the 1740s, for instance. 1.00

00:27:40.000 Just to be clear.

00:27:41.000 Hashtag OscarSoWhite.

00:27:42.000 So, this has received rave reviews, of course, on Rotten Tomatoes.

00:27:46.000 94% from critics, 99% from audience, which...

00:27:46.000 Right?

00:27:49.000 I'm willing to bet that they've changed the algorithm there with audience reviews.

00:27:52.000 The New York Times praised the film in their review, saying, The women are their own greatest weapons. 1.00

00:28:00.000 And among everything else it addresses, The Woman King is about strong, dynamic black women, their souls, minds, and bodies.

00:28:09.000 Okay, first off, hit the like button if you can see where this is going.

00:28:15.000 If you know the film is whitewashed, uh, if, I mean, and by the way, to say that this is offensive would be to say that, uh, Mr., was it Mr. Yunioshi and Breakfast at Tiffany's, was it maybe a little off color?

00:28:26.000 Yes.

00:28:28.000 So what you're saying is this was written by a guy whose last name ended in Berg?

00:28:32.000 Possibly.

00:28:33.000 Not Peter.

00:28:35.000 Like Black Panther?

00:28:36.000 Peter Berg didn't do Black Panther, did he?

00:28:38.000 Peter Berg has done some decent stuff.

00:28:38.000 No, no.

00:28:39.000 Oh, he has.

00:28:40.000 No, I'm just saying that it was quoted by a Jewish guy.

00:28:43.000 Yes, I'm just intensely uncomfortable.

00:28:45.000 I am too.

00:28:46.000 I don't know where to go with this.

00:28:47.000 You watched this movie as well, The Woman King.

00:28:49.000 First off, women are their own greatest weapon. 1.00

00:28:52.000 Okay.

00:28:53.000 Now, let's get, maybe if you're talking about like women who own slaves, in the homie tribes by the way, maybe if that's what you're discussing, you mean like they're their own greatest weapon because they have like a mountain of slaves behind them, they have so many slaves it's like World War Z on the wall. 1.00

00:29:05.000 Yeah.

00:29:06.000 So this is the issue, slavery is bad, we all agree, okay?

00:29:10.000 It's bad that the United States engaged in slavery.

00:29:12.000 No one disagrees with that, just to be clear.

00:29:16.000 Our primary problem is that there are more slaves today than ever in recorded history.

00:29:21.000 That's a fact.

00:29:22.000 And our problem is that we talk often in school about how the United States was built off the backs of slaves, but if you look at the numbers, it's really not true.

00:29:29.000 You can go and search or go on Mug Club for the band segments.

00:29:32.000 I don't think it's still on YouTube where we actually compare the development of the South with slavery versus the North.

00:29:36.000 And slavery actually impeded progress, economic progress, in the United States.

00:29:39.000 Because it turns out that a lot of slaves who are forced, not the most ingenious workers,

00:29:43.000 right?

00:29:44.000 These people don't have an incentive to work particularly hard.

00:29:45.000 You look at the cotton gin, I believe that came from the North.

00:29:46.000 There are a bunch of innovations that came from the North where there were people who

00:29:49.000 were free who were working, right?

00:29:51.000 Because of a voluntary exchange of goods and services.

00:29:55.000 But if you look at a lot of these African nations, and certainly if you look at the

00:29:58.000 Middle East, Asia, where there is still slavery, by the way, their economy required, the bedrock 0.99

00:30:03.000 of the economy was slavery.

00:30:05.000 As a matter of fact, if we didn't purchase slaves from them, they probably would have had no international trade of which to speak. 0.57

00:30:11.000 Are you saying that it wasn't the colonial oppression?

00:30:14.000 Not exactly.

00:30:15.000 Okay, gotcha.

00:30:16.000 Well, I don't know if the colonialism, I mean, I don't think it would have worked without slaves and black people, though, in America. 0.99

00:30:22.000 I mean, that's the reality of that, too.

00:30:24.000 Early on, yeah.

00:30:26.000 I would argue that it impeded American development, because, again, if you look at the North, when they freed, you know, obviously they didn't have slaves far earlier than the South, they advanced far more rapidly economically.

00:30:34.000 And if you look at these nations that are still slave nations, they don't tend to develop, they don't tend to innovate, because people are forced to go in and punch a clock, and they don't necessarily do the best work that they can.

00:30:44.000 In other words, I can see both sides of that coin.

00:30:48.000 No one is disagreeing that slavery was wrong and that slavery plays a role in American history.

00:30:52.000 Why do we whitewash, though, slavery? 0.97

00:30:55.000 If you want to help the world, let's not talk about puberty blockers for six-year-olds and calling CPS on the parents who don't administer them.

00:31:02.000 Let's talk about slavery going on throughout the world.

00:31:04.000 But to do that, you have to acknowledge the past.

00:31:07.000 And you have to acknowledge the present, and you have to acknowledge that we committed an evil engaging in slavery, but we also eradicated one of the greatest evils in the Western world.

00:31:14.000 So let's go through the claims, basically, and these are implicit in the film.

00:31:17.000 So one of the premises, a claim first, is that the Dahomey tribe, I hope I'm saying that right, because I'm like, is that where homie came from? 0.99

00:31:24.000 The homies? 1.00

00:31:25.000 Like rolling with the homies? 1.00

00:31:27.000 They were a decent people with a beautiful way of life, and they were these warrior kings.

00:31:31.000 Sorry, queens. 0.99

00:31:31.000 Well, female king. 0.99

00:31:33.000 Whatever.

00:31:33.000 Woman king.

00:31:34.000 So, here's the truth. 1.00

00:31:34.000 It's stupid. 1.00

00:31:36.000 They were an incredibly barbaric tribe. 1.00

00:31:38.000 Yeah.

00:31:38.000 In a way that you can't fathom here in the Western world.

00:31:41.000 And the actual Dahomey Kingdom was...

00:31:44.000 They were an unbelievably big player in the slave trade.

00:31:46.000 So here's according to National Geographic, not a right-wing propaganda rag.

00:31:50.000 It's estimated that from the 1720s until 1852 when the British imposed a naval blockade, Dahomey's rulers sold hundreds of thousands of people from neighboring tribes and nations to the British, French, Portuguese, and others.

00:32:01.000 Hundreds of thousands.

00:32:03.000 Now, if someone sells you something, for example, that is faulty, let's say you buy a used car and it's defective, do you blame the person who purchased it?

00:32:13.000 And I'm not comparing people to a core, I'm just using this as an analogy, just to be clear.

00:32:17.000 Or do you blame the person who committed the wrong in lying in the sale?

00:32:21.000 Why don't we blame the people, at least equally, if not, I would say, weigh it more on their side, who captured people, enslaved them, and sold them?

00:32:30.000 As opposed to people who purchased them.

00:32:33.000 I just think that we need to have an equal distribution of blame.

00:32:35.000 So the Dahomey Tribe, by the way, they also instituted, not just slavery, large-scale human sacrifices. 0.99

00:32:42.000 They saved the decapitated heads, genitals, of their enemies.

00:32:44.000 And took them back to the villages with them.

00:32:47.000 What do you do with those? 1.00

00:32:48.000 I understand the heads, the skulls... You make a trophy case, stupid. 1.00

00:32:51.000 Sun-dry them, jerky. 1.00

00:32:53.000 I mean, some are bigger than others, right?

00:32:55.000 Yeah.

00:32:56.000 You put the big ones on the top.

00:32:59.000 I don't understand.

00:32:59.000 It's like, okay, yes.

00:33:01.000 After I'm dead, you're gonna cut that off and take it back. 1.00

00:33:03.000 What, you've never walked into my house, seen a rhino head next to my slave penis? 1.00

00:33:07.000 Think about it. 1.00

00:33:07.000 There was someone's job was to sift through the penises. 1.00

00:33:10.000 Yeah, yeah. 0.98

00:33:10.000 Like, which ones? 0.98

00:33:11.000 No, no, no. 1.00

00:33:12.000 That's a show penis. 1.00

00:33:13.000 That's simply, that's a penis that goes in the middle. 1.00

00:33:16.000 Very average penis. 1.00

00:33:17.000 I'm a penis dermist. 1.00

00:33:19.000 I'll stuff it and make it for your wall. 1.00

00:33:21.000 This is a champion show penis. 1.00

00:33:23.000 Don Len, let me look, let me look. 1.00

00:33:26.000 I'll find the best one.

00:33:26.000 That's an electric gun.

00:33:27.000 That's a penis gun. 1.00

00:33:29.000 So in the movie, Viola Davis' character begs King Gazo. 0.99

00:33:33.000 I do like Viola Davis.

00:33:34.000 To stop the slave trade and focus on palm oil, which is kind of just a funny sort of ultimatum.

00:33:39.000 It's like, hmm, hundreds of thousands of slaves?

00:33:42.000 Right.

00:33:43.000 Palm oil.

00:33:44.000 Hundreds of thousands of slaves?

00:33:46.000 Palm oil.

00:33:47.000 Ooh, tough choice.

00:33:51.000 What is palm oil?

00:33:52.000 It's oil from a palm.

00:33:54.000 Oh, I got you.

00:33:56.000 A naval blockade by the British in the 1850s, that's what forced Dahomey to move off the slave trade and focus on Pomo.

00:34:04.000 Again, a big part of slavery being ended outside of the United States where there was, and there is an economic argument too, a lot of people will say if you look at Abraham Lincoln, he wasn't progressive by today's standards, but part of it was economically motivated, but there was a moral component to, we cannot have our constitution, and all men created equal, and have slavery.

00:34:22.000 In a lot of other areas of the world, the only reason they stopped slavery was for economic reasons. It was the market that forced

00:34:27.000 them to move to something else like palm oil. Yeah. And by the way, so they, they, they say, they

00:34:31.000 talk a lot about freedom, like freedom, you know, we get to be our own people. We get to, no, no,

00:34:34.000 no, no, no. They, they lived by the code slave or be enslaved. Right. Right. You either enslave

00:34:38.000 somebody else or you're going to be enslaved by them. Right. That was how they lived their life.

00:34:42.000 This was no beautiful let, let live kind of culture out there. Well, I think this is one of

00:34:46.000 those things. And, and, uh, Jordan Peterson talks about this quite a bit, but we've discussed it quite

00:34:51.000 a bit. You have no clue as to what human Right now, this is the most peaceful time.

00:34:57.000 For example, people are furious with Ukraine.

00:34:59.000 Uh, sorry, furious with Russia, with what they've done to Ukraine.

00:35:01.000 Yeah.

00:35:01.000 Pardon me.

00:35:02.000 Why?

00:35:03.000 Well, because they're being violent.

00:35:04.000 They're being violent with a nation that most people would say, you know, they haven't been violent with them.

00:35:07.000 Now, of course, there's a land dispute.

00:35:08.000 We won't get into the micro-politics of it.

00:35:09.000 That being said, at no point throughout human history would someone have said, hey, hold on a second, you're reprehensible.

00:35:14.000 Why?

00:35:15.000 Because you're trying to take over a nation for their resources.

00:35:17.000 People would have said, oh, yeah, let the best country win. 0.75

00:35:21.000 And by best, we do mean that might made right.

00:35:24.000 Throughout all of human history, this is really a very, very small window.

00:35:28.000 In the realm of human history, where it's actually considered to be an anomaly, where it's not the norm.

00:35:33.000 It has always been the norm.

00:35:34.000 It has been the rule throughout all of human history.

00:35:37.000 Pretty much no exceptions, to be clear.

00:35:39.000 Here's another claim that they make.

00:35:41.000 That the Dahomey in this film... I haven't seen it, just to be clear. 1.00

00:35:45.000 Usually I can make it... I couldn't stomach it.

00:35:46.000 No.

00:35:47.000 I watched about ten minutes.

00:35:48.000 I saw the trailer and I was like, nope!

00:35:50.000 I didn't know it existed.

00:35:50.000 Right.

00:35:52.000 Yeah, I found out because I read articles, but the truth is I don't see trailers a lot anymore.

00:35:58.000 I don't think of theatrical releases as big releases like I used to.

00:36:00.000 Right.

00:36:01.000 I thesaurused Woman King and it came up Queen.

00:36:04.000 Yes!

00:36:06.000 We have a word for it.

00:36:08.000 You might actually be able to pull up the video that I did a long time ago.

00:36:11.000 It was maybe like cultural appropriation.

00:36:12.000 What's that Christmas play that the, is it Tseng Tzu?

00:36:16.000 It's like, it's the Asian play, they always do it around Christmas, the Chinese play.

00:36:20.000 Always.

00:36:20.000 And there's a guy with the pom-pom on his head, this hilarious Chinese man.

00:36:23.000 A Christmas story?

00:36:24.000 I can't remember what it was called, but they do it every year at Christmas.

00:36:24.000 Yeah.

00:36:30.000 You guys can comment below.

00:36:31.000 You probably know what I'm talking about.

00:36:32.000 And this is an old video I did, I want to say in 2013, 2014, where I asked him, I said, well, why can't it be a woman king?

00:36:38.000 This guy was out there promoting the play.

00:36:39.000 And he goes, sorry, why can't it be a female emperor? 0.85

00:36:42.000 He goes, oh, no, no, no, no, no.

00:36:44.000 Oh, you mean Empress?

00:36:45.000 I said, well, that's offensive.

00:36:46.000 He's like, no, no, no, no, no.

00:36:48.000 I'm dressed as emperor.

00:36:49.000 I'm a man.

00:36:51.000 His brain didn't even compute.

00:36:52.000 Yeah.

00:36:53.000 Yeah.

00:36:54.000 And now we're here!

00:36:55.000 So, you're right, Queen.

00:36:56.000 Johnny Boy said Crouching Tiger Hidden Christmas Tree?

00:36:58.000 No, he's completely, he's just, stop it.

00:37:01.000 That's, that seems offensive.

00:37:02.000 That wasn't supposed to make air.

00:37:03.000 It's actually a beautiful play.

00:37:04.000 I just can't remember what the name of it.

00:37:06.000 I don't know if I've ever heard of it.

00:37:08.000 You'd know it if you saw it.

00:37:09.000 They have the little pom-poms on the head and I know people say, that's, that's, that's denigrating though.

00:37:14.000 I don't know what to call them.

00:37:15.000 I don't know what the history is.

00:37:16.000 It looks like a pom-pom on the head.

00:37:17.000 Looks like a Kevin McCallister Christmas top hat.

00:37:20.000 Christmas in the Bronx.

00:37:22.000 Stop it.

00:37:24.000 Alright, here's another claim that they make.

00:37:25.000 Rush Hour 3 Christmas.

00:37:28.000 So, here's another claim that they make in the film.

00:37:28.000 That's it.

00:37:32.000 That the Dahomey valiantly fought Western invaders trying to take their freedom.

00:37:35.000 Of course that's untrue.

00:37:36.000 Here's a clip.

00:37:37.000 Fight or we die.

00:37:40.000 Oh gosh.

00:37:54.000 I have to see another leaping sword swipe. 1.00

00:37:58.000 To be a warrior, you must kill your tears.

00:38:04.000 We are the spear of victory!

00:38:08.000 We are the blade of freedom!

00:38:14.000 We are the home.

00:38:15.000 Don't know.

00:38:23.000 Little Lawrence of Alabia vibe.

00:38:26.000 Now, here's... that would be bad enough if it was just inaccurate, right, where you were just sort of whitewashing.

00:38:33.000 Okay, we know that everywhere, slavery existed everywhere.

00:38:35.000 It's actually worse than that.

00:38:36.000 Here's the truth.

00:38:38.000 Not only were they not fighting off Western invaders who were trying to enslave them, the Agoge actually battled, they actually fought the French, who were actively trying to abolish slavery in the tribe.

00:38:48.000 They were fighting to keep on enslaving people.

00:38:51.000 Yes.

00:38:51.000 And also, by the way, so the French were saying, we need to abolish slavery, okay?

00:38:55.000 So the film doesn't really acknowledge that fully.

00:38:58.000 Right.

00:38:59.000 Also, unlike what you see in the film, the French wiped out the Goji in a matter of hours. 0.73

00:39:04.000 Oh.

00:39:05.000 So they're the, hold on.

00:39:06.000 So it wasn't just a sneak attack bloodbath?

00:39:09.000 With the giant John Woo jump leap.

00:39:10.000 Like, by the way, you can't jump and you don't have leverage when you're in the air with a sword.

00:39:15.000 You know what happens when you do that?

00:39:16.000 You've never seen my style.

00:39:18.000 Somebody just holds a spear up and says, thank you.

00:39:21.000 You're skewered.

00:39:21.000 Exactly.

00:39:22.000 Good job.

00:39:23.000 So wait a minute.

00:39:24.000 They said that this is the most fearsome fighting female force in the world. 0.96

00:39:27.000 Hours.

00:39:28.000 Two hours or so?

00:39:32.000 Oh no!

00:39:32.000 We see you've set your Timex!

00:39:36.000 All dead.

00:39:36.000 So, yeah.

00:39:38.000 They just hear a gun, they're like, we're going back.

00:39:41.000 Alright, bye.

00:39:42.000 And this is the issue here.

00:39:44.000 There is a compulsion from the left.

00:39:46.000 They view the world through the lens, again, of oppression.

00:39:49.000 And so if you are an underdog, you must be morally correct.

00:39:52.000 You must be in the moral, you must have the moral high ground, I should say.

00:39:55.000 This is why you see them support Palestine. 0.96

00:39:56.000 Regardless of where you line up with Israel-Palestine, None of us would deny that Palestine, even if you support, that there have been morally reprehensible actions taken. 0.86

00:40:05.000 Certainly Hamas, right? 0.98

00:40:06.000 If you certainly look at their charter and the eradication of Jews. 0.98

00:40:08.000 If you look at, for example, Iran.

00:40:10.000 If you look at, right now, when they still support a lot of nations where there are still slave trades, just to be clear. 0.87

00:40:16.000 You look here, they say, well, hold on a second, this tribe, the Agoge, they must have been morally correct.

00:40:20.000 Why?

00:40:21.000 The truth is, they started from, they were wiped out in hours and worked backwards. 0.72

00:40:24.000 How can we turn them into heroes?

00:40:25.000 Oh, there were women. 1.00

00:40:26.000 Let's look at the different groups of oppression, when the fact is, they were actually oppressing people by not only enslaving them, but fighting off the people who wanted to liberate those slaves to one degree or another.

00:40:39.000 And the good news is, they lost in record time.

00:40:44.000 Everything about this film is wrong.

00:40:48.000 It's almost like Wakanda.

00:40:50.000 It's not like Wakanda, this actually happened.

00:40:52.000 No, that's what I mean.

00:40:53.000 Wakanda, do you mean where the guy's on top of a Tesla with a spear?

00:40:56.000 Pretty much.

00:40:56.000 The story is just about as fake as my point.

00:40:58.000 Well, it's an action movie.

00:41:00.000 No, they're like, we have all the most brilliant technology and this magic and then he's on top of like an electric car with an invisibility cloak with a spear.

00:41:06.000 Like, what is this?

00:41:08.000 What is this?

00:41:09.000 These elements don't add up.

00:41:11.000 I don't care for a lot of those movies anyway.

00:41:14.000 Yeah, I know.

00:41:15.000 You're not a big fan of the metaverse?

00:41:17.000 No.

00:41:18.000 Only thing worse is DC.

00:41:19.000 Here's another claim that they make in this film.

00:41:21.000 That America is the country, and they don't say it directly, but again, it's sort of implied that the United States is a country that built itself on slavery, or certainly more so than other nations.

00:41:31.000 Talk about being critical to a nation's economy.

00:41:40.000 And their contributions weren't limited to the South.

00:41:42.000 A little bit north in D.C., there's the White House.

00:41:45.000 We built that.

00:41:46.000 I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves.

00:41:51.000 Okay.

00:41:53.000 And of course you've seen actors who've worked on this, if you look at the press junkets, where they constantly want to berate the United States, and we'll get to the Washington Post polls in a minute, for having taken part in slavery.

00:42:03.000 Again, can we, can I say it any more clearly?

00:42:05.000 Slavery bad.

00:42:06.000 Glad!

00:42:07.000 Glad we ended slavery!

00:42:09.000 But here's the truth.

00:42:10.000 The United States is not only not singularly unique in having engaged in slavery, but Africa was incredibly dependent.

00:42:16.000 The United States wasn't entirely dependent on slavery.

00:42:19.000 The United States would have become the United States anyway.

00:42:22.000 Because how do you know?

00:42:23.000 Because they were competing with other nations that also had slavery, just to be clear. 0.65

00:42:27.000 So if you were to even that playing field, the United States would still have a leg up.

00:42:29.000 Left the world's greatest superpower one century to become the only superpower the next century.

00:42:33.000 Never happened before or since, just to be clear.

00:42:35.000 But countries in Africa relied on the slave trade for economic growth.

00:42:39.000 The Library of Congress, their website actually did show how African traders were major players, and the page has since been deleted.

00:42:48.000 Yeah, you have the Kingdom of Benin.

00:42:48.000 Interesting.

00:42:51.000 I don't know, again, how we pronounce it.

00:42:53.000 Sometimes you only read these words.

00:42:54.000 I'm American.

00:42:55.000 I'll say Benin.

00:42:56.000 Beninher.

00:42:56.000 Benihana.

00:42:58.000 They sold slaves to European merchants for over 200 years.

00:43:01.000 Places like Nigeria, they depended even more heavily on slavery. 0.85

00:43:04.000 Here's from the History News Network.

00:43:05.000 Many Nigerian middlemen began to depend totally on the slave trade and neglected every other business and occupation. 0.98

00:43:12.000 And this is important, the historical context, because you often look And again, you'll have racists who look when they say, why is Africa such a... Why are almost all countries in Africa crap holes? 0.98

00:43:23.000 Let's be clear. 0.98

00:43:24.000 Racists will look and say, skin color.

00:43:25.000 That's not what anyone here believes.

00:43:28.000 You just look and say, well, maybe, hold on a second, that has something to do with modern Christendom?

00:43:32.000 Because they focused exclusively on slavery at the cost of all other facets of industry.

00:43:38.000 And historically, that is what has held these nations back.

00:43:42.000 The result was that when the trade was abolished by England in 1807, these Nigerians began to protest.

00:43:49.000 As years went by and the trade collapsed, such Nigerians lost their sources of income and became impoverished.

00:43:55.000 And by the way, just to be clear while we're going back to the movie, the Dahomey King, they were one of the most powerful slave states. 0.99

00:44:03.000 On the whole, what's known as a slave coast of West Africa.

00:44:06.000 How is it possible?

00:44:07.000 So, I mean, that makes a great point, right?

00:44:08.000 You made it against the South as well, saying, look, slavery made you lazy.

00:44:12.000 Slavery made you not innovate like the North had to innovate because they got rid of slavery and so therefore they had to get better at doing these things.

00:44:19.000 The entire western coast of Africa essentially abandoned all of the natural resources that they say that Africa is blessed with, which it is, right? 0.98

00:44:27.000 It's got incredible natural resources.

00:44:29.000 It's a great old civilization.

00:44:30.000 Exactly, right?

00:44:30.000 So it has that, and they abandon all of that for the slaves.

00:44:33.000 How is that the colonial oppression?

00:44:36.000 It's people actually buying slaves from you.

00:44:39.000 That's not being oppressed, that's actually engaging in commerce.

00:44:42.000 Now, you're doing a very bad form of commerce, I get it.

00:44:44.000 And then the colonial oppressors come and tell you to stop and focus on something else that'll be a lot more sustainable in the future, and also not, you know, slavery.

00:44:44.000 Of course.

00:44:51.000 Also, it's why I walk back, 0% people got mad when I said, look, slavery was not based on race.

00:44:56.000 It was based on Slavery was based on precedent.

00:45:01.000 Precedence, I guess, in this case, because everyone else engaged in slavery. 0.84

00:45:03.000 We thought, well, okay, to compete, slavery is a thing. 0.98

00:45:06.000 Look at what happened in the slave coast. 0.97

00:45:08.000 It was black people enslaving black people. 1.00

00:45:09.000 You can look at what's happened in the Middle East. 0.99

00:45:11.000 It's Middle Eastern people enslaving Middle Eastern people. 1.00

00:45:12.000 You can look at what's happened in Asia.

00:45:13.000 You have Asian people enslaving Asian people. 1.00

00:45:15.000 It was just a matter of which people were available for purchase.

00:45:20.000 To say that it's entirely racially motivated or ethnically motivated, like the Holocaust, where that was the express purpose, the eradication, right? 0.86

00:45:27.000 We want to basically commit a genocide against the Jewish people. 1.00

00:45:30.000 That's not what happened.

00:45:31.000 People didn't say, hey, we're only going to enslave people of one particular race, because people of all different races were enslaved, depending on where they existed in the world, because slavery was the norm. 0.56

00:45:40.000 Here's something else.

00:45:41.000 All references available at latospeditor.com.

00:45:43.000 I've said it several times, and it's one of those numbers that's so shocking, people say, that can't be right.

00:45:48.000 Okay.

00:45:49.000 During the entire Atlantic slave trade, there were about 13 million.

00:45:52.000 I've seen numbers as low as 12 million, I've seen numbers as high as 15 million.

00:45:55.000 13 million is the most accurate that I can find.

00:45:57.000 That's how many slaves were sold. 0.97

00:45:58.000 The entire Atlantic slave trade.

00:46:00.000 Right now, on Earth, there are over 40 million slaves today.

00:46:06.000 Jeez.

00:46:08.000 And the reason that people, because what often happens is they break it apart. 0.99

00:46:11.000 Those are sex slaves. 1.00

00:46:12.000 That's just, that's a worse form of slavery. 0.99

00:46:15.000 That's slavery. 0.99

00:46:15.000 So if you look at some of these websites where they sort of tally up slavery, they separate them into different groups. 0.99

00:46:20.000 I have a hunch as to why.

00:46:20.000 Why?

00:46:23.000 It's pretty hard to blame the United States singularly for all the evils of the world when today, the greatest evils that you blame America for in their past, they're still being committed today.

00:46:34.000 By nations with many people who live there who you would claim are oppressed here in the United States.

00:46:39.000 Let's be really honest about that.

00:46:40.000 If you were to take people from any of these countries that still engage in slavery, bring 1.00

00:46:44.000 them to the United States, we would say those are marginalized people.

00:46:48.000 But in their home country, they still engage in slavery.

00:46:51.000 Here we're blamed for marginalizing them from something that happened hundreds of years

00:46:55.000 ago.

00:46:56.000 I think that's why it's hard to get, but the number is 40 point something million, I think

00:46:59.000 it's 40.2, 40.3 million slaves on earth today.

00:47:04.000 You want to do something?

00:47:05.000 You want to help the world?

00:47:06.000 Don't go on TikTok and bitch about pronouns. 0.73

00:47:08.000 Do something today. 0.53

00:47:09.000 A lot of people say, what would I have done back then, during that point in history, right?

00:47:13.000 If it was slavery here in the United States, what would I have done?

00:47:16.000 I'd like to think that I would be someone who would have stood up and done something.

00:47:19.000 I'd like to think that I would have been one of the Germans who would have stood up to the SS and done something.

00:47:22.000 You can stand up today.

00:47:25.000 More slaves than ever, and there are plenty of organizations that do a lot out there.

00:47:29.000 Especially with sex slaves, with those people being trafficked. 0.99

00:47:32.000 Yeah, if you get a sex slave, don't pay for it. 0.99

00:47:34.000 Right. 0.99

00:47:36.000 At least don't ask for a refund.

00:47:37.000 Yeah.

00:47:38.000 By the way, also, it's only a few years ago.

00:47:40.000 A few years ago, Libyans were caught selling West Africans.

00:47:43.000 Open-air slave auctions, just to be clear.

00:47:45.000 That means out in the open.

00:47:46.000 Oh lord.

00:47:47.000 Like you, at a flea market.

00:47:49.000 Only they were selling people!

00:47:52.000 This is very, very recent.

00:47:54.000 That's the issue.

00:47:55.000 When they try and say conservatives are racist, people on the right are racist, that's this reactionary review that you'll see from a conservative in response to Woman King.

00:48:04.000 No!

00:48:05.000 No, it's about accuracy.

00:48:08.000 Why aren't you talking about more slaves than ever in recorded history?

00:48:14.000 How would I have been back then?

00:48:15.000 How are you now? 0.98

00:48:17.000 You're condemning the people now in this studio for saying, this is virtue-signaling bullshit, there are slaves now, and you want to accuse us of being racist for pointing it out while you push Afro-lesbian-centric propaganda. 0.98

00:48:32.000 I may not be entirely right, but I'm in the ballpark. 0.97

00:48:37.000 Anything?

00:48:38.000 You guys can comment below.

00:48:39.000 Did you know that?

00:48:40.000 You know there are more slaves than ever?

00:48:41.000 Right now?

00:48:43.000 You know, there are more slaves than ever in recorded history.

00:48:46.000 All right.

00:48:46.000 We're going to be moving on to Washington Post.

00:48:50.000 I think this is something while we're talking about, you know, racism and... Oh, Jesus, are you serious?

00:48:56.000 Boy, I'll tell you, Korndorf, this show's so awful, it makes Cardi B seem bearable.

00:49:01.000 Really?

00:49:02.000 If I had a forklift.

00:49:05.000 This show's so terrible, it has less to offer than Jimmy Kimmel!

00:49:10.000 Really?

00:49:11.000 What does that crying host have to offer? 0.99

00:49:13.000 At least when I tune into that, I'm sure to see one wet p***y! 1.00

00:49:17.000 Okay, guys. 0.99

00:49:19.000 I don't know why we got the balcony.

00:49:20.000 I apologize.

00:49:21.000 Really, there was a lot of money put into that.

00:49:23.000 Alright, hold on a second here.

00:49:25.000 Gerald, you were about to say something.

00:49:27.000 No?

00:49:28.000 Thanks for throwing that to me.

00:49:30.000 You were going to say something about... Guys, I'm gay.

00:49:32.000 No, I'm not gay.

00:49:33.000 That's what it was.

00:49:33.000 I really do want to see.

00:49:34.000 You brought this up earlier, the 99% rotten tomatoes.

00:49:37.000 Do you think there is a way for them to massage that number?

00:49:39.000 I understand the critics' scores are always... I've never seen a 99% audience score for anything.

00:49:43.000 Well, but it's also audience and critics are so high.

00:49:46.000 It's like, come on, guys.

00:49:47.000 Well, if anything about an audience, it's that they always love stuff.

00:49:50.000 Yes.

00:49:52.000 It's very easy to get an audience today online to agree on something.

00:49:56.000 Yeah.

00:49:56.000 Especially something as polarizing as the Woman King.

00:49:59.000 Read anything with comments.

00:50:00.000 As a matter of fact, sometimes if you need to brighten your day, go check the YouTube.

00:50:00.000 Yes.

00:50:05.000 Yeah, just see how... Yeah, I think you guys are setting me up.

00:50:07.000 It always leaves me with a smile on my face.

00:50:10.000 No, it doesn't.

00:50:11.000 While we're talking about racism, while we're talking about the accusations of racism, Washington Post They are now at this point, I would say, definitely diametrically opposed to the interests of the American people.

00:50:24.000 What do I mean by that?

00:50:25.000 So last week, and I wanted to make sure that I did some research, you know, crossed my T's, dotted my I's.

00:50:25.000 Okay.

00:50:30.000 Gosh, I have the hiccups today, and I don't know if you guys are going to give them to me.

00:50:32.000 You have the hiccups?

00:50:33.000 Yeah, I have horrible hiccups.

00:50:34.000 Do your kids give them to you?

00:50:35.000 Someone can scare me.

00:50:37.000 It can happen that way.

00:50:38.000 Yeah, just give me an auditing paper.

00:50:42.000 The Washington Post.

00:50:44.000 There's a columnist there, Jennifer Rubin, who wrote a piece.

00:50:46.000 Now, this is an opinion piece, granted, but the opinion piece is based on a poll from an institution.

00:50:52.000 And I'll get to that, but this is what happens.

00:50:53.000 They say, well, this is opinion, but it's based on fact, right?

00:50:56.000 I'm opining on something that we know is a fact.

00:50:57.000 So it seems as though you've started with a baseline where Americans, MAGA Republicans, are racist.

00:51:02.000 It's a really brilliant sort of sleight of hand trick.

00:51:05.000 You're going, hold on a second, when you see this, where's the poll from?

00:51:07.000 You're palming it.

00:51:09.000 This is the name of the article.

00:51:10.000 It's just how racist is the MAGA movement.

00:51:12.000 This survey measures it. 1.00

00:51:15.000 And to answer, it is exactly as stupid as you would assume. 1.00

00:51:19.000 It is. 1.00

00:51:20.000 Do me a favor, too, and researchers, pull up some of Jennifer Rubin's best tweets.

00:51:24.000 If you don't know who this person is, She is no fan of anybody who is conservative, period.

00:51:30.000 Whether you're a Donald Trump conservative or anybody else, it doesn't matter.

00:51:34.000 And this is an opinion article, to be clear.

00:51:36.000 But she will say, I'm an opinion journalist, I understand.

00:51:38.000 But the poll is not.

00:51:41.000 The poll, just so you know, Rubin's article, uses survey data from the Public Religion Research Institute, so PRRI.

00:51:47.000 To prove that Republicans are racist. 0.84

00:51:49.000 So it starts off with the foundation that obviously Republicans are racist, and then obviously MAGA Republicans are racist. 0.92

00:51:54.000 So if they get you to buy that, then it's a lot easier to get you to buy another lie.

00:51:57.000 Just like if they get you to buy the lie that the Dahomeys were fighting to try and... First off, that they were even remotely successful in fighting off the French. 0.99

00:52:06.000 Beyond two hours, beyond a long lunch break, to try and free... No, in fact, they were fighting to maintain slavery.

00:52:13.000 So if you believe, when I start off from the jumping off point, you're, Republicans are racist, then you get to say I'm writing an opinion as to ask, why are all Republicans racist?

00:52:20.000 So just to be clear, the PRI, they describe themselves as, quote, a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to conducting independent research at the intersection of religion, culture, and public policy.

00:52:32.000 Now, you should note they partner with the Atlantic, they partner with the Ropert Center at Cornell, and the Brookings Institute.

00:52:38.000 So that should give you an idea as to where they line up.

00:52:41.000 The survey asked for responses to 11 statements designed to measure racism.

00:52:46.000 Okay.

00:52:47.000 And basically, do you agree, do you disagree, right?

00:52:49.000 This is how they conduct these polls.

00:52:51.000 And the answers were used to create a structural racism score.

00:52:57.000 Comment below right now before you actually watch and see where we're going.

00:53:01.000 If you can tell where this is going.

00:53:03.000 Don't take the test.

00:53:04.000 So here are some examples of statements that are included to which people would, again, agree or disagree.

00:53:09.000 And that tells you if you're racist or not.

00:53:12.000 It's the Structural Racism Course.

00:53:13.000 Basically, if you answer this question with agree or disagree, depending on the statement, you are, in fact, of course, a racist.

00:53:19.000 So, here's a statement.

00:53:21.000 Do you believe white Americans today are not responsible for discrimination against black people in the past? 1.00

00:53:28.000 Logical fallacy alert!

00:53:29.000 Just to be clear, that's called a negative question.

00:53:34.000 Now, a negative question is a type of question where a no response indicates an affirmative answer and a yes indicates a negative answer.

00:53:40.000 And common practice with polling, you're not supposed to use this unless you are intentionally being dishonest.

00:53:45.000 So let's go back to this question.

00:53:46.000 Do you believe white Americans today, today, white Americans today are not responsible for discrimination against black people in the past? 0.77

00:53:56.000 The answer, if you're going to be accurate, is of course, agree.

00:54:04.000 Yes.

00:54:05.000 The question is not, were white Americans responsible for discrimination against black people in the past?

00:54:11.000 The answer everyone here would say, yeah, of course.

00:54:13.000 Of course they were.

00:54:15.000 But then if they say, do you believe that white Americans today are not responsible for discrimination against black people?

00:54:20.000 Of course.

00:54:21.000 Gerald's not responsible for what happened back during the slave trade.

00:54:25.000 I've seen his time machine.

00:54:27.000 Exactly, the DeLorean.

00:54:28.000 Exactly.

00:54:29.000 No one here, of course, would say, well yeah, of course, I agree, we're not responsible for discrimination against black people in the past.

00:54:36.000 You've joined, by the way, answering for other people who've come before you, and then you've asked the question with a negative.

00:54:41.000 So there's two tricks there designed to trip people up, and by the way, this is then used as though it is concrete data.

00:54:47.000 Indicating that half of this country is racist. 0.90

00:54:49.000 And you can bet your ass that you're going to have Jean-Pierre or you're going to have the White House use this as the backbone for some of their arguments. 0.98

00:54:56.000 The alarming level of extremism! 0.98

00:54:58.000 You don't think the FBI is glad to have this?

00:55:02.000 I can't believe you start off, or not even start off, but wherever that question happens to reside in there, that you ask a question like that, and it's not just that question, it's the narrative that we see from the left continuously, is that white people today are responsible for the decisions made 150 to 200 years ago by other white people.

00:55:21.000 It's like, that doesn't make any sense at all.

00:55:23.000 Because if we could play that game, we could just rewind the tape a little bit further like you were saying and say, okay, well the black people that went and caught the slaves are then responsible as well. 0.70

00:55:31.000 Well, you don't even need to rewind it further.

00:55:33.000 You can just ask them in the present tense.

00:55:35.000 Do you agree that slavery that goes on today in Africa and the Middle East and Asia is wrong?

00:55:35.000 That's true.

00:55:41.000 Does that make you racist?

00:55:44.000 Because these tend to be people of a particular race in these countries, and it's not because of their race that they're employing slavery.

00:55:49.000 It's because of their history.

00:55:50.000 It's because of their values, which we don't share in the modern world.

00:55:54.000 And you try and look at the modern world through the lens of the values that were created through the Judeo-Christian founding fathers and the documents therein, and then condemn them. 0.78

00:56:05.000 It's a theoretical wormhole slave trade question.

00:56:08.000 Yes.

00:56:10.000 With the word not in it, which is always great in a question because that's meant to confuse you.

00:56:14.000 Exactly.

00:56:15.000 It's the event horizon of polls.

00:56:16.000 Yes.

00:56:17.000 I need a flow chart to see where I'm responsible.

00:56:20.000 But they throw in the word not.

00:56:22.000 That's what I hate about questions like that is because it's deliberately meant to confuse you.

00:56:25.000 So you answer wrong.

00:56:26.000 These are not people who are looking for an accurate assessment.

00:56:28.000 These are people who are looking to manipulate.

00:56:30.000 Right.

00:56:30.000 100%.

00:56:31.000 Yeah.

00:56:32.000 Look, it's very simple.

00:56:33.000 This is how you would ask that question.

00:56:35.000 Do you think that Americans engage in discrimination or bigotry in the past?

00:56:39.000 Yes.

00:56:41.000 Are you a bigot or are you prejudiced? 0.92

00:56:42.000 Are you racist? 0.99

00:56:43.000 There you go!

00:56:43.000 No.

00:56:43.000 That's a more accurate question as opposed to combining them into one and implying that, well, hold on a second, if you don't think that you're responsible for past racism, that makes you racist today.

00:56:52.000 This is not someone who is seeking to get to the truth and that's why I always say, be very, very leery of polls.

00:56:58.000 Right? You can't just argue from the position of most people think this.

00:57:01.000 First off, that may not be the case. Second, you have to look at the kinds of questions that were

00:57:05.000 asked. Here are other questions posed in the survey. Do you feel that the white people of

00:57:09.000 tomorrow are responsible for the racism of today? I'd be willing to bet yes. Okay. I just want to

00:57:16.000 Because of all the white guilt. 0.98

00:57:18.000 I do not want to see what white people do tomorrow. 0.99

00:57:20.000 Oh, that's rough. 0.96

00:57:21.000 It's one of those, it's like Back to the Future 3 of slavery.

00:57:25.000 They live in the sewers like Demolition Man.

00:57:27.000 I'm thinking of Time Cop, that's right.

00:57:31.000 Yeah, they're both good.

00:57:32.000 Yes, they're both fantastic.

00:57:35.000 Here's another question posed in the survey.

00:57:37.000 White supremacy, a statement I should say, white supremacy is still a major problem in the United States today.

00:57:42.000 Agree or disagree?

00:57:45.000 First off, wrong.

00:57:47.000 You've also added a quote, major.

00:57:49.000 That's subjective.

00:57:50.000 What do you mean, major problem?

00:57:53.000 Do you mean, and this is, if we were to have a conversation, white supremacy, and this is why we do Change My Mind, where you can discuss these issues at length.

00:57:59.000 Ironically for the left, they always say that they live in the nuance.

00:58:02.000 Look at this poll here.

00:58:03.000 The new answer is a major problem.

00:58:04.000 Do you mean, for example, major in that are there any actual legal institutions that exist today that are allowed to discriminate, you know, aside from examples like affirmative action or racial or diversity quotas?

00:58:15.000 No, it doesn't exist.

00:58:16.000 So I wouldn't say it's a major problem in the United States today because it doesn't exist anywhere systemically.

00:58:22.000 Now, if you say white supremacy is still a major problem in the U.S.

00:58:25.000 today and you disagree, guess what?

00:58:27.000 That goes on your structural racism score. 0.94

00:58:30.000 Makes you a racist.

00:58:30.000 Let me give you another question.

00:58:32.000 Good luck in a not racist house.

00:58:33.000 Yes!

00:58:36.000 What is it now?

00:58:36.000 7.8%?

00:58:38.000 Oh, it's very low.

00:58:39.000 Thanks, Joe Biden.

00:58:40.000 Agree or disagree, if we truly want to repent of the history of racism in the United States, we must be willing to repair the damage it has done to generations of black Americans. 0.99

00:58:48.000 Let me read that again because I know it's hard to say agree or disagree when it's filled to the brim with bullshit. 0.96

00:58:53.000 If we truly want to repent of the history of racism in the United States, we must be willing to repair the damage it has done to generations of black Americans. 0.98

00:59:03.000 Now, there are There's a litany of reasons that you could disagree with that statement.

00:59:10.000 First off, repair the damage, but hold on a second, what do you mean, what damage?

00:59:12.000 And then, how do you repair the damage?

00:59:14.000 And what do you mean, repent?

00:59:15.000 And the history of racism, how are we qualifying the history of racism?

00:59:18.000 Which kind of racism?

00:59:19.000 Are we just talking about slavery, which by the way still exists in the world?

00:59:21.000 Are we also talking about what happened during World War II in the internment camps?

00:59:24.000 Are we talking about what happened with Jewish Americans?

00:59:26.000 By the way, we didn't treat them all that well, right, leading up until World War II, that's another thing that Americans don't necessarily talk about.

00:59:31.000 We've made mistakes, but which kind of racism, and what kind of damage, to what level, to what degree of damage Needs to be repaired, and how do we repair it?

00:59:40.000 So, I would just have to encapsulate that with... Disagree.

00:59:45.000 Racist.

00:59:46.000 And then you get it in the media.

00:59:47.000 Then you get it in the Washington Post.

00:59:48.000 Then it goes to the White House.

00:59:49.000 Then it's used by the FBI, CIA, DOJ to put you on a list.

00:59:56.000 So you should just say you're racist?

00:59:59.000 I think that gets it over quickly.

00:59:59.000 Yes.

01:00:01.000 But yeah, no, it's not always just about black people. 0.96

01:00:05.000 What about black people being racist to white people, right? 0.97

01:00:08.000 What about white people being racist when it comes to Chinese Americans building the railroads out in California and on the West, right? 0.77

01:00:14.000 There are so many examples that you just gave. 0.73

01:00:16.000 What about black people being racist towards Chinese people? 0.89

01:00:18.000 Or black people being racist towards other black people. 0.78

01:00:20.000 What about Chinese being racist to Japanese and you're watching it and you're like, I don't know, what's a what's a? 0.83

01:00:27.000 Right.

01:00:27.000 It's like Clone Wars.

01:00:29.000 When we tried to fix the problem of slavery, the problem that slavery created, of course there are better ways that we can look at problems sometimes.

01:00:36.000 We don't always do the very best job of solving it, but one of the easiest things that we said was, okay, look, we just need to give everybody the same opportunity.

01:00:43.000 The same opportunity, by the way, that we had when we came here from England.

01:00:48.000 Right?

01:00:49.000 That opportunity.

01:00:50.000 No guarantee of success.

01:00:51.000 If you work hard, you can make it.

01:00:53.000 That took a little while.

01:00:54.000 We are over a century beyond that, and we're still talking about trying to fix the problem, and the only way that people can say that we can fix that problem is by being racist today and creating a future problem.

01:01:06.000 So black people need to be preferenced over white people. 0.99

01:01:06.000 Right. 0.99

01:01:10.000 Kamala Harris just the other day, I believe, said something about funding going for Hurricane Ian to communities of color first.

01:01:18.000 Well I will say though, I do respect her because if she were being selfish, looking out for her own best interests, of course she won't see a dime.

01:01:27.000 That's true.

01:01:29.000 Well, both.

01:01:30.000 Yes.

01:01:32.000 I mean, if they were the ones hit first.

01:01:34.000 But that's the solution.

01:01:35.000 It's like, okay, so we just perpetuate the problem.

01:01:37.000 But it was on the water.

01:01:37.000 Right.

01:01:38.000 And then eventually we have such a problem with white people, like a hundred years from now, white people will be like, well, slavery and racism and everything else led to me being oppressed. 0.50

01:01:45.000 And now I need to oppress somebody else so that I can make the playing field level.

01:01:48.000 Do you see this game ever ending?

01:01:49.000 No, and that's the goal.

01:01:50.000 And this is why I say they are diametrically opposed to the interests of all American people.

01:01:53.000 Black, white, Johnny Mathis.

01:01:55.000 Black, white, yellow, no one knows.

01:01:56.000 We know.

01:01:57.000 Jesus wasn't yellow.

01:02:00.000 If you want, at the end of the segment, we can play the agree-disagree game with Jennifer Rubin's tweets.

01:02:05.000 Oh, okay, yeah, we can do that.

01:02:06.000 So let me first bring up, this is a structural racism score that they then use to say that you, as a MAGA Republican, are a racist.

01:02:14.000 Uh, and by the way, the poll never actually uses the term MAGA.

01:02:16.000 They just define it afterwards.

01:02:17.000 They go, this must be a MAGA person.

01:02:18.000 So, Republican really equals MAGA.

01:02:20.000 So they have Republicans, 0.67.

01:02:22.000 Again, on the structural racism score.

01:02:24.000 Independent, 0.45.

01:02:26.000 Democrat, 0.27.

01:02:27.000 And by the way, they have structural racism scores by religious groups, white evangelical Protestants.

01:02:34.000 White Latter-day Saints, 0.55.

01:02:34.000 0.64.

01:02:37.000 White Catholics, 0.55. 0.57

01:02:39.000 White mainline Protestants, 0.55.

01:02:40.000 And here's the thing, they say Rubin describes these people as the religious groups that make up the core of today's GOP and MAGA movement.

01:02:47.000 Ah, so white Protestants, white evangelicals.

01:02:50.000 I notice that they don't include black Protestants, which by the way is most black people. 0.99

01:02:53.000 Just degrading on a curve. 0.96

01:02:54.000 Yeah. 0.91

01:02:56.000 These evil racist groups, this is something else that no one wants to bring up.

01:02:58.000 Very generous, by the way, across the board.

01:03:00.000 According to Philanthropy Roundtable, and there's also a great book I talked about by Brooks, Who Really Cares, evangelical Protestants and Mormons in particular are strong givers compared to Protestant affiliation.

01:03:09.000 Both Catholic affiliation and Jewish affiliation reduce the scope of average giving when other influences are held constant. 0.70

01:03:14.000 Finer-grained numbers from the PSID show that the faithful don't just give to religious causes.

01:03:18.000 They just give to the church.

01:03:18.000 That's another lie.

01:03:20.000 By the way, the church does more charitable giving, and by the way, acts of service, than the government could ever hope to do, just to be clear.

01:03:26.000 There is no larger charitable institution that exists, not just for Christians, than the American Evangelical Church, just to be clear.

01:03:34.000 Hey, by the way, while we're talking about this, where are the international Islamic charity organizations for people who aren't Islamic?

01:03:40.000 That's precluded from their faith.

01:03:40.000 No?

01:03:42.000 Might be why in a lot of Islamic nations they still engage in slavery. 0.99

01:03:44.000 See?

01:03:45.000 So, not just religious causes, they are also more likely to give to secular causes than the non-religious.

01:03:45.000 There's a tieback.

01:03:52.000 And to conclude the article, Rubin, using this poll, by the way, His polls from this organization claims that 85% of Republicans want to rewrite history of the Civil War and ignore the evil of slavery.

01:04:02.000 What?

01:04:03.000 In other words, if you say I'm not responsible for racism of the past, I'm responsible for my actions, she then concludes that you want to rewrite history.

01:04:03.000 Yes.

01:04:14.000 This is the goal.

01:04:15.000 The goal is to fracture you.

01:04:16.000 The goal is to make racism worse today than ever. 0.64

01:04:20.000 Than ever.

01:04:21.000 To create more racial tensions than ever so that you can be scapegoated.

01:04:24.000 You can be blamed.

01:04:24.000 You can be categorized as an extremist simply for saying, no, I don't think I'm responsible for something that happened hundreds of years ago.

01:04:31.000 Here's actual text from... Well, your ancestors probably weren't even here, let's be honest.

01:04:34.000 Right!

01:04:35.000 For most white people.

01:04:36.000 Mine weren't.

01:04:36.000 I mean, realistic.

01:04:38.000 Yeah.

01:04:39.000 Again, we go through generations of immigrants. 0.99

01:04:43.000 Where's the nuance?

01:04:44.000 Here's actual text by the way from the survey.

01:04:46.000 Americans are divided over whether they support or oppose efforts to preserve the legacy and history.

01:04:52.000 Not the same thing.

01:04:53.000 Legacy and history, not the same thing.

01:04:56.000 You pair those together, you've just rendered the poll completely unusable.

01:05:01.000 Efforts to preserve the legacy and history of the Confederacy through public memorials and statues in their community.

01:05:08.000 51% supported, 46% opposed, 85% support from Republicans, Democrats 26% support, which is kind of funny because the Confederacy was made up of almost entirely Democrats, to be clear.

01:05:18.000 I don't know if you know this.

01:05:19.000 I don't know if you're history buffs out there, But while we're talking about the Civil War and the Confederacy, now, preserving the history means that Republicans are saying, even though we don't have a dog in that fight because we weren't the Confederates, that was you guys, saying, yeah, I don't think you should take down every single statue.

01:05:35.000 Yeah, I don't think you should completely remove history.

01:05:36.000 It is a part of our history.

01:05:38.000 If you don't recognize history, you're doomed to repeat it.

01:05:40.000 That says, no, you want to preserve the legacy because you support the Confederacy.

01:05:44.000 Well, hold on a second.

01:05:45.000 I believe that we should have World War... I believe we should have Holocaust museums. 0.98

01:05:50.000 Monuments.

01:05:51.000 I believe that we should recognize it.

01:05:52.000 I believe that it should be mandatory teaching in schools so that we learn how evil human beings can truly be.

01:05:58.000 It doesn't mean that I want to preserve the legacy of Hitler. 0.94

01:06:02.000 Right.

01:06:03.000 And the survey, by the way, again, never mentions rewriting the Civil War.

01:06:06.000 Yeah.

01:06:06.000 That's important.

01:06:07.000 They go afterwards and say, well, that must be, you want to rewrite the Civil War.

01:06:10.000 What?

01:06:11.000 Yeah, well, and they're talking about the Confederacy.

01:06:13.000 Like, you didn't mention the fighting that took place to actually free slaves.

01:06:17.000 The white people who fought other white people to make sure that they couldn't have slaves.

01:06:20.000 Just like the white people fought black people in Africa to make sure they stopped selling slaves. 0.97

01:06:24.000 Who were enslaved by other black people. 0.99

01:06:26.000 By other black people, yes.

01:06:26.000 It seems like we've...

01:06:28.000 I think we've done what we're supposed to do.

01:06:29.000 That's actually a really good point.

01:06:30.000 Again, we've talked about it.

01:06:31.000 People said, I can't believe that you would say slavery isn't predicated on race.

01:06:33.000 Okay. 0.96

01:06:34.000 Again, just using the woman king as an example, when you're talking about the French going in and the Dahomey tribe, you have black people enslaving black people. 1.00

01:06:40.000 Now you have different people enslaving people, members of different races all throughout history.

01:06:43.000 But let's just use this as a very clear example. 0.99

01:06:45.000 Black people enslaving black people, selling them. 1.00

01:06:47.000 Okay. 1.00

01:06:48.000 So they are selling them to either other black people or selling them to other white people.

01:06:52.000 And yet people like the French go in and try and abolish slavery. 0.98

01:06:54.000 So white people trying to abolish the practice of black people enslaving black people. 0.97

01:06:59.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:07:00.000 Same thing with the United States. 0.99

01:07:01.000 White people fighting white people to say you can no longer enslave black people. 1.00

01:07:05.000 Black people enslave black people. 1.00

01:07:05.000 And we ignore it. 1.00

01:07:07.000 White people fought white people to stop enslaving black people. 0.93

01:07:09.000 We just say it's a black white thing. 0.95

01:07:11.000 No, it's a human nature thing.

01:07:14.000 That's all.

01:07:15.000 It doesn't make it any less morally reprehensible.

01:07:18.000 But to say that it's racially motivated.

01:07:19.000 And this is what's so subversive about this too.

01:07:22.000 It's not just you can't say something.

01:07:24.000 Because it offends me.

01:07:25.000 That's what people talk about, cancel culture.

01:07:25.000 Right?

01:07:27.000 It's worse than that.

01:07:29.000 Hold on a second.

01:07:29.000 You actually can't say that because you're simply reinforcing the power structures that be.

01:07:35.000 The racism structural index score, whatever the hell they call it.

01:07:38.000 You're actually doing harm to current black people by reinforcing racial structures that exist. 0.91

01:07:44.000 So it's not you're saying something I don't like, but the very fact that you have the ability to say it is a byproduct of free speech from racist white founding fathers.

01:07:52.000 So it's like two evils that you're committing.

01:07:54.000 Think about that for a second.

01:07:56.000 How can anyone have a conversation?

01:07:59.000 And if that same logic were applied, you would have never had the Civil Rights Act.

01:08:02.000 Because all great civil rights movements start through what?

01:08:06.000 Speech.

01:08:07.000 No matter how offensive it may be.

01:08:09.000 Now, apparently the PRRI director, Robert P. Jones, doesn't have any problem with Rubin's characterization.

01:08:14.000 This is what was said.

01:08:16.000 While this result may seem surprising or even shocking to many white Christians... No, no, no.

01:08:20.000 Inaccurate.

01:08:21.000 It is because we do not know our own history.

01:08:23.000 Yes, we do.

01:08:24.000 If we take a clear-eyed look at our history, we see a widespread, centuries-long Christian defense of white supremacy.

01:08:29.000 Let me ask you something.

01:08:32.000 You're looking at a percentage because a lot of people were Christians, sure.

01:08:34.000 That doesn't mean that it was a Christian defense of white supremacy, just to be clear.

01:08:36.000 A lot of them were trying to defend slavery in spite of what would be Christian beliefs.

01:08:43.000 How many Hindus abolished slavery because of the tenets of Hinduism?

01:08:50.000 How many Muslims?

01:08:52.000 abolished slavery because of, again, the fundamental values of Islam. There's still slavery that exists.

01:08:57.000 There's still slavery that, by the way, exists in parts of India, and there's still slavery that exists in the Middle

01:09:01.000 East.

01:09:01.000 So, hey, can you find any other group of people who opposed slavery more than white Christians here in the United

01:09:06.000 States?

01:09:07.000 Sure, it's the largest percentage of the population.

01:09:10.000 You're going to have Christians who were on the side of slavery, but the arguments used to abolish slavery were entirely biblically based on the moral component, not the economic component. 0.69

01:09:21.000 The arguments used to preserve slavery from the so-called white Christians had to go outside the scope of the Bible, and they had to be entirely economically argued. 0.80

01:09:31.000 Yeah, by the way, we have a Christian in the White House supposedly right now who's pro-abortion, which goes completely against what the Bible says.

01:09:39.000 So it's just an example that Christians don't always stand up and say.

01:09:42.000 And by the way, do you think William Wilberforce was an agnostic?

01:09:46.000 I've never heard of him, but no.

01:09:46.000 Right.

01:09:48.000 Fantastic guy.

01:09:48.000 Yeah, no.

01:09:49.000 You should read up on him.

01:09:50.000 I give a gander.

01:09:51.000 He wanted more slaves. 0.68

01:09:52.000 That's what it was.

01:09:53.000 Yes, it was more slaves that Wilberforce wanted.

01:09:55.000 How many slaves did Jesus have?

01:09:57.000 Uh, you know, I don't know.

01:09:58.000 One can never count.

01:09:59.000 Yeah, in the 50s, right? 0.94

01:10:00.000 He just had 12 losers who were sort of, you know, riding his coattails. 0.92

01:10:03.000 I know, right? 0.98

01:10:06.000 I'm sorry.

01:10:06.000 I'm just saying, come on.

01:10:07.000 Let's be honest.

01:10:08.000 We all knew who was putting bread on the table there.

01:10:10.000 I mean, he gave them five loaves!

01:10:11.000 Yes, because the Bible says white people are supreme when it was talking about all Middle Eastern people and the chosen people being Jewish. 0.74

01:10:19.000 And that's why the Jewish guy is saying that. 0.69

01:10:22.000 And by the way, we don't mean Jewish like you think of them here in the United States.

01:10:22.000 Yes.

01:10:25.000 We mean Jewish who would look more like what you would picture a terrorist to look like. 0.99

01:10:29.000 Yes. 0.93

01:10:30.000 Middle Eastern, Mediterranean.

01:10:31.000 Yeah, very Mediterranean. 0.98

01:10:33.000 Bible, that white supremacist. 0.70

01:10:35.000 I give to you my only son, this short brown man who's not very attractive. 1.00

01:10:39.000 Have you read any of the book?

01:10:42.000 Yeah.

01:10:42.000 Very Middle Eastern.

01:10:44.000 And by the way, I'm not saying he's not attractive because he's Middle Eastern.

01:10:47.000 I'm saying he's not attractive because the Bible describes him as nothing special to see.

01:10:50.000 Yes.

01:10:51.000 Physically.

01:10:52.000 So don't make it a racial argument, Washington Post or PRRI.

01:10:57.000 That'll be the first time they defended Jesus.

01:11:03.000 That'd be a win if we could get them to accidentally defend Jesus. 0.87

01:11:08.000 I want to hear from you.

01:11:10.000 Would you agree?

01:11:10.000 Go look at the survey.

01:11:12.000 Tell me how you would have answered this poll.

01:11:15.000 Because I want you to not feel bad for answering accurately.

01:11:19.000 That's the thing.

01:11:19.000 I think too many people are timid with this at this point.

01:11:23.000 And sometimes I want to be tactful because I don't want to turn off people who I could otherwise reach.

01:11:29.000 No, no, no, no.

01:11:30.000 Let your freak flag fly.

01:11:31.000 Be honest about it.

01:11:32.000 You cannot argue from a position of weakness.

01:11:34.000 Oh, well, I don't think that I'm responsible for past slavery or racism, but let me listen.

01:11:40.000 No, no, no, no.

01:11:41.000 I don't need to listen to your argument that I am responsible.

01:11:44.000 For acts of evil committed a hundred years ago.

01:11:45.000 I don't need to listen to that.

01:11:47.000 It is not accurate.

01:11:50.000 It also won't allow us to have a productive conversation if it has any bearing on this conversation.

01:11:54.000 Because we'll be in two different parallel lanes.

01:11:58.000 We'll never actually intersect.

01:11:59.000 You love that word, Afro-lesbian-centrics. 1.00

01:12:02.000 By the way, we're going to play the Rubin game, I guess.

01:12:05.000 We'll play that on Mug Club. 0.95

01:12:06.000 We have a lot more to get to.

01:12:07.000 So if you are watching right now on YouTube, the best thing you can do, by the way, hit like, leave a comment, share the show.

01:12:13.000 You can share the show.

01:12:14.000 That's a good thing.

01:12:15.000 If you can, there you go.

01:12:15.000 Hit sharing is caring.

01:12:18.000 It's different.

01:12:18.000 I didn't realize we changed it to another rainbow anymore.

01:12:20.000 We have another hour of show to do on Mug Club.

01:12:23.000 Letterscutter.com slash Mug Club.

01:12:24.000 We'll be taking your chat.

01:12:24.000 YouTube, thank you, but not really.
