00:00:00.000 We're tired. We're exhausted. They would never let a white person do that ever. And this is,
00:00:06.540 you know, Doug MP, I didn't mean to push back at you and you're giving me the white people crime
00:00:13.460 stats. I don't even have to look at them. I know black people are going to be overrepresented
00:00:19.220 in every violent crime. I just know it because I have eyes, you know, even the serial killer
00:00:27.820 thing, I'm still kind of skeptical. They'll find some workaround to make us look worse because they
00:00:34.000 always do. We're just not violent people. It's just not our nature. Black people,
00:00:45.300 they just tend to be, I don't know if it's genetic or cultural. To me, genetic kind of makes sense,
00:00:52.680 but people get kind of mad when you say that. But it's only because I had a brother that grew
00:00:57.760 up with a different family and he was really similar to us, even though he didn't grow up
00:01:03.420 with us. So like, could there be a genetic component to violence? I could see it. I don't know.
00:01:10.780 You know what I'm saying? Like nobody tripping on you and
00:01:12.740 but these people just as scared as the mother folks.
00:01:16.760 They are if they get on a bus. Not necessarily. They are if they get on a train. That lady,
00:01:20.480 that lady wasn't in danger because that man was black. That lady was in danger because that man
00:01:23.780 was crazy. Nope. Whenever we want to ask for you
00:01:25.920 quality and fairness, it's a problem. So white America. So it spends several trillion dollars.
00:01:32.320 When is it enough? Where's the bird? No, no. Where's the bird? You're not stopping white
00:01:36.820 America from doing anything they want to do. You know what? The bird just burned down four billion
00:01:39.860 dollars worth of cities and 60,000 assaults. No, the bird ain't burned down. No, no. There's three times to four
00:01:44.020 times as much homework than the black kid. And the white kid does two to three. Why?
00:01:49.040 Because it's culturally. It's conditioned. Now one thing I do like about black people is they do check
00:01:54.000 each other for subtle disrespect. And I think that's cool. I think white people, especially
00:01:59.200 white guys, could do more of that. But it's never just to check. Like they have to be like violent.
00:02:08.720 You know, why can't it just stop with the like checking? Why is it better parenting for most of
00:02:12.680 and white? Why? You said what? Why was it having real talk? Why do black? Why do young black men
00:02:16.080 fight in packs? So a couple of years ago, when I started black and white on the gray issues,
00:02:24.280 I sensed some growing discontent or more of a racial divide in America than I'd experienced
00:02:31.200 in my lifetime. And it seemed to be egged on by legacy media. It's sad to see a lot of people going
00:02:38.160 along with it. The American people have felt safe in their home. People who had absolutely no chance
00:02:45.720 of victory. And racism towards black and brown people. And as that evolved, and for the first
00:02:51.900 time I walked into Stevie J's barbershop, I really was looking to sit down and talk with, but mainly
00:02:59.080 listen to real black Americans living the real American black experience to see whether they shared
00:03:06.300 the viewpoints of a lot of the public representatives, the now networkless Joy Reads of the world,
00:03:13.820 or back then the Don Lemons, what they wanted me to believe.
00:03:16.780 I realized that CNN and MSNBC were foolish.
00:03:19.800 And overall was a largely warm, productive conversation, I think served its purpose. You
00:03:25.200 can go check out that video to see what it was like. Fast forward to now, and not only have
00:03:31.140 things not really improved, we're fatigued, we're tired. And they'll gaslight you. They'll
00:03:40.680 say, well, this is just on social media. I'm like, is it really? Because the one woman that
00:03:48.180 was a complete bitch to me on my team in England was black. She refused to talk to me, acknowledge
00:03:53.360 me for months. Because I had Nick F on my show, really? Really? Black barbershops are not real
00:04:06.000 life. I cannot believe that 60% of black men have been arrested by the age of 25. That's
00:04:11.600 a crazy stat. That's insane. Oh my God. It's like when you find out 50% of black women have
00:04:19.100 herpes. That's crazy too. And according to many Americans, they're markedly worse. And
00:04:25.080 if listening is important, I noticed that a lot of white Americans.
00:04:49.100 that I didn't get by Jan andaggi H on Twitter and they never got styles as humans and their
00:04:54.100 www, yet you're getting all these injured and our girls as a sister, too. And yup.
00:04:58.040 And let's go home. Amen.
00:04:59.120 If you don't ORG and all sit down and ask them to offer favorites, they see influenced your
00:05:02.080 day with their parents and their children. So when they enter the e Sebση event they're
00:05:05.540 hearing the words centre today, they don't pay anything out of their their lives. And they're
00:05:07.060 znaded into their minds, right? But after what you, guess what their health
00:05:12.100 gets done in their videos is she isn't making a lot of money. 이걸 become more
00:05:12.180 boric. We don't knowagua or concern their house, they're not bei Europe, especially on
00:05:13.660 this time they don't pay for money. And they hope they can actually find out what kind of
00:05:15.860 Oh, Arante.
00:05:19.100 You
00:05:42.100 They did oh each of us
00:05:49.100 I remember I had a conversation with a black person once and I told them that less than one percent of white people even owned slaves
00:05:58.100 And this this black person fought me. They fought me so hard. They're like, no, that's not true. And I'm like, oh, it's true Google it
00:06:04.100 And I watched him I watched him Google and I'm like, mm-hmm
00:06:09.100 We're tired, you know
00:06:11.100 You know
00:06:16.100 Knew some guys in college they had a they had an apartment in downtown Chicago bunch of black guys broke into and stole all their stuff
00:06:25.100 It's like
00:06:27.100 Now, you know that kid stabbed another guy on the field at a track meet and I
00:06:35.100 So basically if you guys don't know the story there's a white kid who's a twin
00:06:41.100 And he was a track athlete. There's a black kid at the at the track meet
00:06:45.100 Um, and they got into a fight now the black kid he's saying oh well the white kid provoked it
00:06:52.100 And I'm like why do you have a knife at a at a track meet?
00:06:59.100 Like white white culture we don't bring guns to school at least not to use on each other
00:07:06.100 We might you know, um
00:07:09.100 They might be hunters
00:07:12.100 But that's not normal
00:07:14.100 That's not normal
00:07:17.100 And this kid stabs this kid in front of his brother
00:07:21.100 He dies in cold blood on the field
00:07:24.100 They haven't released the footage they raise a ton of money for this this kid's legal defense
00:07:32.100 And it's just insane he's applying to college right now
00:07:36.100 Back in 2023 I was put on a government watch list for speaking out about men's issues
00:07:44.100 The government spent who knows how much money trying to shut me up
00:07:48.100 And honestly to some extent it worked
00:07:50.100 I was demonetized on youtube
00:07:52.100 I had three instagram accounts that deleted seven tiktok accounts wiped out
00:07:56.100 And I was forced to delete three years worth of work videos interviews everything
00:08:01.100 The more honest I was the harder I was punished
00:08:03.100 And eventually I had to shut down my show move back home and completely start over
00:08:08.100 But I'm not giving up this time we're doing things differently
00:08:10.100 I've created my own app a space where free speech actually means free speech
00:08:15.100 On this app you'll not only get access to all my old content
00:08:18.100 But you'll also help shape our future documentaries and show topics
00:08:21.100 For just ten bucks a month you're not only supporting me
00:08:24.100 You're supporting a movement
00:08:26.100 A network that refuses to be silenced
00:08:28.100 The link is in the description
00:08:30.100 Join us and be a part of something that fights back against censorship
00:08:34.100 Now let's talk bigger picture
00:08:35.100 Why don't we have true free speech in America anymore?
00:08:39.100 Welcome to the female economy
00:08:41.100 Where women make 80% of consumer buying decisions
00:08:44.100 Have you ever wondered why women always seem to get their way?
00:08:48.100 Well, here's the truth
00:08:50.100 Men tend to care about the free flow of ideas
00:08:53.100 Men can separate an idea from the person who said it
00:08:56.100 But women on the other hand have learned that they can control what gets said by controlling what gets funded
00:09:02.100 Platforms like YouTube have one goal they want to make money
00:09:05.100 And if that means catering to the majority female audience they will
00:09:09.100 That's why being a conservative creator today feels impossible
00:09:12.100 This isn't just about me it's about the future of online speech
00:09:16.100 With the audacity network me and my community will never have to worry about being silenced again
00:09:21.100 You are
00:09:23.100 We're tired we're exhausted
00:09:25.100 They would never let a white person do that ever
00:09:28.100 You are gay you have made
00:09:31.100 So
00:09:37.100 Jon
00:09:38.100 Who
00:09:40.100 Was
00:09:41.100 The
00:09:44.100 Was
00:09:45.100 Thank you.
00:10:15.100 And that's Stevie right there, in the blue shirt.
00:10:29.360 Blue shirt?
00:10:30.360 Oh, Stevie?
00:10:31.360 I met Cedric.
00:10:32.360 I think I scared him.
00:10:33.360 How you doing, man?
00:10:34.360 You doing all right?
00:10:35.360 Yeah, man.
00:10:36.360 How you doing?
00:10:37.360 Good to see you.
00:10:38.360 You guys all have your beards nice and right.
00:10:40.360 I just, I've never learned how to do this shit.
00:10:42.360 Oh, I see what it is.
00:10:48.620 It's a power move.
00:10:49.620 You have me sitting lower.
00:10:50.620 Yeah, so we can all look down on you.
00:10:54.620 No, thanks.
00:10:55.620 They said you guys got some people coming in here after the last one?
00:10:58.620 Yeah, a couple of people came through.
00:11:01.120 They just felt like, I think this is a place where white and black people have conversations.
00:11:04.360 So, it was funny, the first person that came, the first person that came last time was,
00:11:10.620 uh, he's from, he said, and he said this out at home, he was like, I'm Indian.
00:11:15.620 But he had on, he had on a MAGA hat.
00:11:17.620 Okay.
00:11:18.620 And he walked in and was like, hey, I saw you guys on Crowder.
00:11:21.620 Can I get a cut here?
00:11:22.620 Yeah, I guess so, man.
00:11:23.620 Come on.
00:11:24.620 Did you have your hand on your piece?
00:11:27.620 You're like, I don't know.
00:11:28.620 Nah, because he didn't come, he didn't come like that.
00:11:31.620 He didn't, he didn't have the backpack and the, and the, and the ski mask on.
00:11:34.620 Yeah.
00:11:35.620 He didn't have that on.
00:11:36.620 Was it, was it nice?
00:11:37.620 Was it good?
00:11:38.620 Cool.
00:11:39.620 Yeah.
00:11:40.620 What do you guys think like when you see someone with a MAGA hat?
00:11:41.620 Because I know we were kind of talking about that last time.
00:11:43.620 It depends on how they, it depends on how they present themselves.
00:11:48.620 To me.
00:11:49.620 Yeah.
00:11:50.620 For me.
00:11:51.620 Okay.
00:11:52.620 So what would present themselves in a way that would be like decent versus piece of shit?
00:11:55.620 Yeah.
00:11:56.620 Some, you know, some people, some people carry that, uh, that, that, that air of superiority.
00:12:02.620 Yeah.
00:12:03.620 And if you present that to me, I'm very conscious of that.
00:12:07.620 If you present that to me, I'm going to respond appropriately.
00:12:09.620 Yeah.
00:12:10.620 That's just me personally.
00:12:11.620 What would be like an air of superiority?
00:12:13.620 Like.
00:12:14.620 Just like certain things you say in conversation and, you know, and like you said, just in
00:12:18.620 the, in the physical nature of these chairs, well in conversation, you can physically go
00:12:22.620 up and down and put yourself above or beneath.
00:12:24.620 Yeah.
00:12:25.620 So when people do that kind of stuff.
00:12:27.620 Yeah.
00:12:28.620 You know, it's funny that you mentioned that.
00:12:29.620 Cause I actually, when I do the change of my mind and sit with people, I actually kind
00:12:32.620 of slump my shoulders and deliberately kind of make myself smaller just to not, it's like,
00:12:37.620 you know, what is it?
00:12:38.620 The crab that has the red under its claws is showing danger.
00:12:40.620 So I don't wear red.
00:12:41.620 Cause apparently that signifies poison.
00:12:43.620 But yeah, no, there's all these body language experts.
00:12:45.620 Now you watching TV and I'd like, this seems like horse.
00:12:48.620 Like he looks to the left so you can tell he's lying.
00:12:51.620 Yeah.
00:12:52.620 Some of it is horse.
00:12:53.620 I saw him on camera.
00:12:54.620 He killed his girlfriend with a butter dish.
00:12:55.620 I don't give a what he says.
00:12:56.620 He took too long to say that answer.
00:12:58.620 He had to think about it.
00:12:59.620 No, he thinks about, he thinking about what he wants to say.
00:13:01.620 Yeah.
00:13:02.620 You know, just spit out.
00:13:03.620 He wants to think about what he's saying.
00:13:05.620 Last time we talked, we were kind of just, and the reason was just like, you know, often
00:13:08.620 you see in news, people just kind of siphon themselves off right into an echo chamber.
00:13:12.620 And I thought it was good.
00:13:13.620 We were just kind of able to see other perspectives.
00:13:14.620 Where do you think the country is now?
00:13:16.620 Like with that?
00:13:17.620 Is that an open question?
00:13:19.620 Yeah, race relations between, because last time I wanted to get your perspective.
00:13:22.620 And there's a perspective now in the white community.
00:13:26.620 None of us are an ambassador for the entire community, but things have changed quite a
00:13:29.620 bit the last year and a half.
00:13:31.620 Temperatures have gone up.
00:13:33.620 But what do you guys think?
00:13:34.620 What do you think we are in the country?
00:13:35.620 I'd like to chime in on that.
00:13:36.620 Yeah.
00:13:37.620 I'm happy you asked that question.
00:13:39.620 There are a lot of social and economic dynamics at play that have certainly gone, in my opinion,
00:13:44.620 in the wrong direction.
00:13:46.620 I don't think that people really understand the gravity of where we're headed.
00:13:51.620 We are vastly sliding into an autocratic regime here.
00:13:56.620 And I'll give you several reasons.
00:13:59.620 You see, in order to have, you can't have a one-dimensional approach
00:14:05.620 when you're wanting to continue to lead from a global perspective, all right?
00:14:10.620 What you see here today is an isolationism approach,
00:14:15.620 which has never worked in the past, because we don't have an understanding of geography
00:14:20.620 and history, all right?
00:14:22.620 And I'll just simply close by saying you've got to understand something.
00:14:27.620 The rest of the world is grossly infuriated with the way America has taken shape.
00:14:32.620 And not only that, we're ceding all our best opportunities to China, right?
00:14:37.620 Look around you in the relationship they're fostering with everybody else, which includes Canada, Mexico,
00:14:43.620 and they've even gone as far down into the Latin American corridor, fortifying their bases,
00:14:50.620 while we're still hollering that we're the greatest.
00:14:53.620 Are you talking about China, like in the Panama Canal?
00:14:55.620 Not just the Panama Canal.
00:14:57.620 Let's pivot from the Panama Canal, and let's look at the long-term strategy they have now,
00:15:02.620 where they just signed an agreement with Mexico to build another canal, bypassing the Panama Canal.
00:15:09.620 And when you look at the whole transatlantic corridor, where you've got now Brazil and Canada, as well as Mexico trading,
00:15:18.620 and they're stopping in Peru, where China has a huge presence at circumventing completely the navigation,
00:15:26.620 the use that comes with having to use the Panama Canal.
00:15:30.620 So we'll avoid conflict with America and just simply go around America.
00:15:34.620 It's what's happening here.
00:15:35.620 You're talking about China?
00:15:36.620 Absolutely.
00:15:37.620 Yeah.
00:15:38.620 No, I mean, I want to go with the first part, autocratic.
00:15:39.620 I think China needs to be dealt with, and this is the first time we are.
00:15:42.620 I was raised in Canada.
00:15:43.620 Canada sucks.
00:15:45.620 Canada is a dog s**t country.
00:15:47.620 Canada, the kind of s**t we're doing, you can't do this in Canada.
00:15:49.620 If you say something too offensive or I say something too offensive, you will be jailed in Canada.
00:15:54.620 Yeah.
00:15:55.620 That's the thing.
00:15:56.620 So I'm fine with the U.S. being the best country.
00:15:57.620 I came here from Canada because, I mean, I have friends who were arrested.
00:16:00.620 I had a friend, a stand-up comic was fined for telling a joke.
00:16:03.620 I don't think people realize how good we have it here in this country compared to other countries.
00:16:07.620 But that's the painstaking part about it all is the fact that, you know, I've always been one to say,
00:16:13.620 and I believe this firmly, freedom is not a right.
00:16:16.620 It's a privilege until you wake up the next morning and find out you don't have it anymore.
00:16:20.620 Yeah.
00:16:21.620 It also comes with duties.
00:16:23.620 That's what I was about to say.
00:16:24.620 It also comes with responsibilities because while we're free to speak and say what we want.
00:16:30.620 And I went to Montreal a few months ago, so I know exactly what you're talking about.
00:16:33.620 Bet you saw a lot of t**t on signs.
00:16:36.620 That's all it is.
00:16:37.620 No, I didn't.
00:16:38.620 It's just strip clubs.
00:16:39.620 Our Times Square is a giant strip club.
00:16:41.620 It was a couple of them.
00:16:42.620 Yeah.
00:16:43.620 But no, like there is responsibility and like everybody's from different places, different backgrounds.
00:16:50.620 Some of us from certain backgrounds know like running your mouth too much in a certain space can get your ass whooped.
00:16:56.620 Yeah.
00:16:57.620 Like you free to say what you want.
00:16:58.620 You're just not free from the consequences.
00:16:59.620 Like the consequences that come with you saying the wrong thing at the wrong time to the wrong person.
00:17:03.620 Yeah.
00:17:04.620 I hate it when people say that because white people, okay, yeah, they might, you might get into a fight.
00:17:13.620 Sure.
00:17:14.620 But we just have such, we, it's like our offended meter is so much higher than black people.
00:17:23.620 And it's very exhausting because like we get offended, like we're up here and they get offended here.
00:17:30.620 And so they're like, oh, well, you know, you guys, you think there's no consequences to saying what you're going to say.
00:17:36.620 And we're like, well, we don't get offended.
00:17:39.620 Like you, you guys are cry babies.
00:17:41.620 Um, not all, not all, obviously, but it's like when you get offended, like I heard a black woman got shot because someone didn't open the door.
00:17:50.620 Say thank you.
00:17:51.620 When she opened the door for someone or something like that.
00:17:54.620 And this led to her getting shot, you know, but this, if this was white people, do you know how it would go?
00:18:00.620 Um, oh, she didn't say thank you.
00:18:02.620 I guess she probably wasn't paying attention.
00:18:03.620 I'll just let it go.
00:18:04.620 You know, we kind of are trained.
00:18:06.620 We give people the benefit of the doubt.
00:18:08.620 Um, black people.
00:18:10.620 Uh, it's like women.
00:18:14.620 It's like women.
00:18:15.620 Women could say the same thing, but it's again, the male offended meter is so much higher than the female offended meter.
00:18:23.620 So let's go.
00:18:24.620 If the woman could say the same thing, followed by and Kohl turned the same thing at the councilor on this time.
00:18:28.620 Oh, we're with 어머 creo fail system.
00:18:29.620 She would be so much higher than the female offended meter is so much higher.
00:18:31.620 All The male fees.
00:18:32.620 So do things like that.
00:18:33.620 I'm using both Crock dresser's manual of mountains or metal.
00:18:34.620 It's kind of a scrolling.
00:18:35.620 Mm-hmm.
00:18:36.620 I use the things that don't come.
00:18:37.620 It's incredible to me.
00:18:40.620 If there's always an ender, you know?
00:18:42.620 Anyway, I see.
00:18:43.620 It's like the gold addict.
