00:00:00.000 Thank you.
00:00:30.000 This is Radio 314 on the Red Ice Radio Network.
00:01:00.000 This is Radio 314 on the Red Ice Radio Network.
00:01:29.980 But these conferences always start so early and it seems everyone mainly comes for the after party.
00:01:35.500 And so we were disappointed that we couldn't broadcast from the after party, but the connection was lousy.
00:01:40.800 We also had the challenge of recruiting those who wanted to be filmed, which is not a lot of people, sadly.
00:01:46.480 But looking ahead, this first Saturday in June will mark our first live stream show for Red Ice members, so look out for that.
00:01:53.200 My lovely guest today is Janice Fiamengo, a professor of English at the University of Ottawa in Ontario, Canada.
00:02:00.580 Recently, she has begun to speak out on men's issues, having become appalled by the bigotry, hypocrisy, and dangerous magical thinking of the modern feminist movement.
00:02:09.620 She is the author of The Fiamengo File, a series of YouTube videos on academic feminism, the situation of men in modern culture, and free speech.
00:02:19.520 She has published numerous essays on feminism and cultural decline at PJ Media and Front Page Magazine.
00:02:26.400 We'll talk all about feminism, among a few other things.
00:02:29.940 Janice Fiamengo, up next.
00:02:31.700 Welcome, Janice. Thanks for being here.
00:02:34.880 Well, thank you very much, Lana, for having me on your show.
00:02:38.060 So, can you get in trouble for having a conversation like this with me?
00:02:42.000 I mean, would your university find out and possibly retaliate against you?
00:02:46.920 I don't think my university would be interested in retaliating against me.
00:02:51.580 They probably know about my activism a little bit anyway, but certainly people have had trouble with their universities.
00:03:02.080 Right now, I was just reading yesterday about a situation involving a professor at a college called Springfield College,
00:03:11.040 and his name is Dennis Gowes.
00:03:14.520 He has been teaching a course on men in literature for the last number of years at his college.
00:03:20.820 And a few students complained about the course, and he has essentially been told that he can't teach the course anymore.
00:03:31.460 He's been denied a sabbatical application to do some male-positive research to contribute to a volume of essays on male studies.
00:03:44.380 And he's just generally been given a hard time, has had his course methods and his assignments scrutinized and been made to feel that his perspective isn't welcome at the university.
00:03:58.080 And this is, you know, at a time when there are all sorts of courses that have an overtly ideological slant that lots of students might find potentially, you know, distressing or offensive.
00:04:09.640 Women in literature, African-American literature, Aboriginal literature, all those kinds of things.
00:04:14.960 And it's absolutely inconceivable to try to imagine a case where a woman in literature course, having been protested by a few disgruntled male students, would then be cancelled,
00:04:28.480 or the instructor would be told that she had to modify how she taught the course or how she evaluated her students.
00:04:35.380 So there is a bias, especially, I think, against male professors.
00:04:40.580 I have my female privilege, so I can play with a lot that a man who was interested in talking about men's issues wouldn't be able to get away with.
00:04:49.980 That's true. Well, you did spend years studying feminist theory.
00:04:53.540 You worked at a woman's rape center, right? You even said you cut your hair short and had hairy legs, right?
00:04:58.060 You took part and take back the night marches. So when did all of this change for you?
00:05:02.160 Well, it was a gradual process. I guess I would say that when I started my first job in 1999, I probably still identified,
00:05:11.040 that was my first real job at the University of Saskatchewan, probably still identified at that point as a feminist,
00:05:16.220 although I was already starting to question the mythology.
00:05:21.400 But then very quickly, within about the first year of my having a full-time job at the University of Saskatchewan,
00:05:28.440 I just, the whole thing started to fall apart like a house of cards.
00:05:34.160 It started to look more and more unreal to me that this myth that women were somehow still oppressed or marginalized
00:05:43.860 or that, you know, we needed special measures to protect our vulnerability,
00:05:48.920 that we still lived in a patriarchal society, that men were in any way privileged.
00:05:54.100 I could see so clearly that the young men in my classes weren't privileged and they had to sit there in class after class
00:06:02.920 listening to professors telling them that their sex was responsible for everything that was wrong with the world,
00:06:10.220 that they needed to apologize for some unearned advantages and that, you know, women were their moral superiors
00:06:20.940 and that they should step back and allow their sisters to, you know, take up the positions of power
00:06:26.760 that had been unjustly denied them for centuries, that men had had it really good for a long time
00:06:32.920 and that they should be ashamed about that.
00:06:35.640 And it just seemed to, began to seem to me obscene, actually.
00:06:40.280 And I also participated in that very first year of my employment on hiring committees
00:06:46.140 where we were determined to hire women if we possibly could,
00:06:50.540 all in the name of some sort of, you know, righteous ideal of equality.
00:06:55.120 But it was clear to me, participating in that process, that there was no equality whatsoever
00:07:00.700 and that, if anything, men, high-achieving men were being denied positions that they would have rightfully earned
00:07:08.520 in a fair process simply because they were men.
00:07:11.320 They were being made to pay for the so-called sins of their fathers.
00:07:16.140 And it was just grotesque, really.
00:07:19.340 And I couldn't go on with it.
00:07:20.960 I don't relate to this feminist movement at all.
00:07:23.380 I don't feel oppressed.
00:07:24.500 I don't feel, there's, no one's stopping me from doing whatever I want to do
00:07:28.580 or whatever I want to make of myself.
00:07:30.180 In fact, there's a lot of programs geared just to help people like me, right?
00:07:34.260 Women, correct?
00:07:35.640 Yeah, sure.
00:07:36.200 There are a whole bunch of programs.
00:07:38.240 And I'm older than you are.
00:07:40.100 I started school, I'm 51.
00:07:42.360 I started school in 1970.
00:07:45.300 I clearly remember in the third grade, I had a feminist teacher named Mrs. Mull
00:07:50.500 who had us all drawing pictures of women in hard hats
00:07:54.880 and women, you know, doing construction work and driving trucks
00:07:58.260 and all of that sort of thing in order to drive home the point
00:08:01.500 that we could do anything we wanted to do.
00:08:04.740 And I found the whole thing a little bit mystifying in the sense
00:08:07.960 that I had never thought otherwise, you know, that I couldn't do anything.
00:08:11.760 And that was my experience throughout my entire life.
00:08:15.820 I received nothing but encouragement, respect from the male teachers
00:08:22.120 and professors and bosses that I encountered.
00:08:26.100 And to pretend that I was some sort of victim in order to feel good
00:08:32.720 about my identity, to have that kind of righteous anger
00:08:37.020 that so many feminists seem to enjoy, I did enjoy that for a period.
00:08:42.780 But eventually it just seemed to seem too fake.
00:08:46.980 I couldn't go on with it.
00:08:48.880 So I want to know kind of behind the scenes,
00:08:50.720 what do you learn in an average woman's studies course today?
00:08:54.060 I mean, tell us about the state of academic feminism being taught on the campus.
00:08:57.700 It gives an inside view.
00:08:58.920 What are they learning?
00:09:00.720 What they're learning are false statistics
00:09:03.540 about the likelihood of a woman being raped in her lifetime.
00:09:08.420 They learn about the wage gap that President Obama, for instance, has talked about.
00:09:14.540 You know, they learn that women make 78 cents for every dollar that men earn
00:09:19.920 for doing the same work.
00:09:21.760 They learn that domestic violence is something that almost entirely affects women,
00:09:27.060 that men are always the perpetrators of violence,
00:09:29.760 that women are always the victims.
00:09:31.180 They learn that in all sorts of ways, we live in a woman-hating culture
00:09:37.140 that devalues women, that objectifies them sexually.
00:09:42.160 They learn that gender is a social construct,
00:09:45.400 that it's something that has been shaped by centuries of patriarchal conditioning,
00:09:52.100 and that it can be reshaped at will and should be reshaped.
00:09:56.080 They learn that heterosexuality itself is a social construct that should be changed.
00:10:04.140 Really, they learn that a much better society would be possible,
00:10:08.460 one in which this so-called conditioning could be completely thrown out
00:10:13.680 so that we could live in utopian communities,
00:10:16.880 you know, in which there was no more competition,
00:10:19.400 in which there was no more aggressive risk-taking on the part of men.
00:10:23.240 They learn that masculinity is a kind of disease,
00:10:26.580 that it's also a result of social conditioning,
00:10:29.300 that men need to unlearn the way in which they are,
00:10:32.780 which is supposedly violent, competitive, aggressive, and so on.
00:10:39.180 And they learn to regard themselves as innocent,
00:10:43.380 as not responsible for any of the ills of the world,
00:10:46.780 all of which are placed on the shoulders of white,
00:10:49.760 Western, pro-patriarchal culture and its products.
00:10:54.040 That's something I hear all the time, too.
00:10:55.520 If we just destroy the patriarchy,
00:10:57.240 if we just put women in those positions,
00:10:59.120 everything will just magically change, you know?
00:11:01.360 And what I find is these people are very anti-nature, aren't they?
00:11:04.500 They don't look to the laws of nature
00:11:06.560 to see how we should construct a society
00:11:08.520 or how the sexes are wired, do they?
00:11:10.460 They don't look at all at nature.
00:11:11.600 Well, as far as I understand it,
00:11:14.920 most feminists do not believe in nature.
00:11:18.600 I was recently reviewing a text on gender,
00:11:23.580 and it was used at the University of British Columbia.
00:11:26.740 That's my alma mater,
00:11:28.380 so I was interested in what was going on there.
00:11:30.840 It was in their first-year course in women's studies,
00:11:34.360 Introduction to Intersectional Feminist Theory.
00:11:38.200 And I read through this 40-page chapter on gender,
00:11:44.600 and it denies that there is any significant biological basis to gender.
00:11:52.340 It uses a few scientific studies that suggest
00:11:57.120 that our understanding of the biological basis of gender
00:12:01.460 is in some way very limited.
00:12:04.380 It suggests that anyone who claims that there are hormonal
00:12:09.020 or physiological bases to gender difference,
00:12:13.780 anyone who claims that is essentially, you know,
00:12:16.100 has an agenda, has an ideological agenda
00:12:19.420 to limit women's participation in society.
00:12:23.220 And this chapter suggested that we can never know.
00:12:29.000 There may be some biological basis,
00:12:31.120 but we can never really know what that is
00:12:33.520 because social and cultural conditioning kicks in,
00:12:38.080 you know, supposedly from day one,
00:12:39.960 from the time we're tiny infants.
00:12:43.120 And, you know, so, yeah,
00:12:44.180 it is a straight-out denial of any kind of natural basis.
00:12:50.880 Well, it really sounds like these professors
00:12:52.600 are the ones that have an agenda that they're pushing.
00:12:55.380 So what is it that really drives some of these women
00:12:59.160 that are teaching these women's studies courses?
00:13:01.080 Is it political motivation,
00:13:02.420 or what is it that you've found anyway?
00:13:05.240 I think it's a combination of things,
00:13:09.180 but largely it is a utopian vision
00:13:11.580 of how the world could be transformed
00:13:14.140 if we simply thought differently
00:13:15.860 about a whole range of issues,
00:13:18.220 and if we simply imagine
00:13:20.020 how human beings can be different,
00:13:22.620 how the family can be reordered,
00:13:24.380 how therefore society can be reordered.
00:13:27.500 They have dreams.
00:13:28.640 I mean, most of these people are progressivists.
00:13:32.920 They're leftists.
00:13:34.440 They believe that a fundamental transformation
00:13:37.140 of our society is necessary
00:13:39.700 and much to be desired,
00:13:42.240 that we could make our world much better.
00:13:45.780 And, you know, so that's what they see their role
00:13:48.140 as not teaching students how to think,
00:13:50.980 but teaching students what to think.
00:13:52.700 And, and therefore bringing about the revolution.
00:13:58.720 So really, I mean, are they just Marxist in nature?
00:14:02.280 Yeah, they are.
00:14:03.920 That's, that's primarily what is driving
00:14:06.660 a lot of professors.
00:14:08.180 And study, you know, study after study
00:14:10.460 shows that professors, by and large,
00:14:13.300 especially in the humanities and social sciences,
00:14:15.640 identify as liberals or further left.
00:14:19.280 In fact, the number identifying as far left
00:14:21.980 is going up, has been going up
00:14:24.740 over the last couple of decades.
00:14:26.180 Whereas you find almost nobody
00:14:27.760 who identifies as conservative.
00:14:30.140 And, you know, it all identifies
00:14:31.800 as extremely conservative.
00:14:34.140 So, so this is, this is their,
00:14:36.320 their vision.
00:14:37.060 And they see, I mean, women's studies programs
00:14:41.220 and many others are really the academic arm
00:14:43.540 of the radical feminist movement.
00:14:45.240 And if you believe that society
00:14:47.000 is so vastly disordered, you know,
00:14:50.440 that it is just riven through
00:14:52.340 with horrible violence and oppression
00:14:54.700 that women's lives have been destroyed
00:14:57.000 for centuries and still are
00:14:59.340 by patriarchal tyranny,
00:15:01.160 of course, then you would see
00:15:02.300 that anything you can do
00:15:03.680 to transform student consciousness
00:15:05.800 is perfectly justified.
00:15:08.340 And, and so that, that's what drives
00:15:10.340 a lot of the teaching methods
00:15:12.360 and, and the texts that are chosen.
00:15:15.320 Well, you did a talk at university
00:15:16.600 and I just wanted to play some footage of that
00:15:18.680 to show how some of the students
00:15:20.180 responded to that.
00:15:33.680 All right.
00:15:45.160 So what was going on there
00:15:46.500 during this lecture?
00:15:47.560 I heard someone singing
00:15:48.200 the Internationale in the background.
00:15:50.680 Yeah, we had, we had
00:15:52.480 the Communist Internationale
00:15:54.080 and the banging of drums,
00:15:55.760 tooting of horns and all of that.
00:15:58.860 Yeah, that was an attempt
00:15:59.960 almost two years ago.
00:16:01.460 I think it was in late March of 2014
00:16:04.180 to give a talk on rape culture.
00:16:08.240 And essentially I wanted
00:16:09.640 to raise the question,
00:16:11.460 do we actually, is, is our culture,
00:16:14.140 especially is, is the university campus
00:16:16.900 a rape culture?
00:16:18.400 There'd been a great deal
00:16:19.300 of discussion around this issue.
00:16:21.540 There'd been two incidents
00:16:22.660 that had taken place
00:16:24.040 on the University of Ottawa campus.
00:16:26.960 One involving the hockey team,
00:16:29.300 an alleged case of sexual misconduct,
00:16:31.740 which has never been proven.
00:16:33.920 It's still working its way
00:16:35.420 through the courts.
00:16:36.960 And also another involving
00:16:38.300 a Facebook,
00:16:40.180 private Facebook conversation
00:16:42.020 amongst members
00:16:43.380 of the student government
00:16:44.840 that one of the women
00:16:48.460 who was a leader
00:16:50.040 of the Student Federation
00:16:51.500 claimed was indicative
00:16:53.620 of a rape culture.
00:16:55.380 And so I wanted to talk
00:16:57.000 about what it means
00:16:58.160 to say that we live
00:16:59.560 in a rape culture
00:17:00.500 and whether it's in fact
00:17:02.260 true or not.
00:17:03.580 But the members
00:17:05.440 of the revolutionary
00:17:06.740 student movement
00:17:08.120 didn't want that talk
00:17:09.760 to go ahead.
00:17:10.500 They decided before
00:17:11.380 I even had a chance
00:17:12.380 to say my first sentence
00:17:14.140 that, you know,
00:17:16.480 my words constituted
00:17:18.080 hate speech,
00:17:19.300 that they would harm women.
00:17:21.000 And so they took it
00:17:23.180 upon themselves
00:17:24.000 to strike a blow
00:17:25.220 for justice
00:17:25.880 and to prevent the talk
00:17:27.260 from going forward.
00:17:28.280 So the whole thing
00:17:28.800 was a wonderful
00:17:29.560 kind of comedy of errors.
00:17:31.860 You know,
00:17:31.980 they started
00:17:32.420 putting their horns
00:17:33.420 and we called
00:17:35.560 the campus security.
00:17:37.700 And campus security
00:17:38.800 came and essentially
00:17:40.420 greeted with them
00:17:42.220 to please allow
00:17:43.500 the talk to go forward.
00:17:45.120 Yeah, brother.
00:17:45.600 Yeah.
00:17:46.080 People had come,
00:17:46.940 you know,
00:17:47.240 from outside the city
00:17:48.540 of Ottawa
00:17:48.960 to hear the talk
00:17:49.860 and they wanted
00:17:50.500 to hear the talk
00:17:51.280 and so couldn't we wait
00:17:52.300 until the question period
00:17:53.440 and they could ask me
00:17:54.220 some really challenging
00:17:55.580 questions.
00:17:56.960 They weren't going
00:17:57.800 to go for that
00:17:58.540 and it was very interesting
00:17:59.640 to me to see
00:18:00.740 the great caution
00:18:03.980 with which the security
00:18:06.120 personnel treated
00:18:07.700 these protesters.
00:18:09.640 I thought they should
00:18:10.460 have been simply
00:18:11.460 called away.
00:18:12.480 Of course, yeah.
00:18:13.200 They were preventing
00:18:15.040 a talk from going forward
00:18:17.560 at the university
00:18:18.520 and yet it was clear
00:18:20.540 to me that they were
00:18:21.520 under fairly strict orders
00:18:23.200 not to touch
00:18:25.500 the protesters
00:18:26.480 and to treat them
00:18:27.540 with kid gloves.
00:18:28.380 They stood and tried
00:18:29.820 to reason with them
00:18:31.060 for about half an hour
00:18:32.700 and eventually
00:18:34.020 what they decided
00:18:35.360 to do was
00:18:35.980 to relocate the talk
00:18:37.860 to another room
00:18:39.060 and so we all
00:18:40.420 trooped into
00:18:41.240 the other room
00:18:42.260 and not surprisingly
00:18:43.980 some of the protesters
00:18:45.180 came into the other room
00:18:46.440 as well and began
00:18:47.400 to immediately disrupt
00:18:48.620 as soon as I tried
00:18:49.500 to start talking
00:18:50.240 in the other room
00:18:51.080 and then eventually
00:18:52.560 after we went on
00:18:53.860 like that for about
00:18:54.600 15 minutes
00:18:55.320 with someone
00:18:55.960 shrieking out
00:18:57.380 condemnation of me
00:18:58.640 every second sentence
00:19:00.160 and then being escorted
00:19:01.460 out by a security guard
00:19:03.460 eventually the fire alarm
00:19:05.580 was pulled
00:19:06.140 and so the whole talk
00:19:07.300 they couldn't get
00:19:07.940 the fire alarm
00:19:08.500 to go off
00:19:09.000 so the whole talk
00:19:09.640 was cancelled
00:19:10.300 and that's actually
00:19:11.540 been the standard
00:19:13.380 modus operandus
00:19:15.500 of the revolutionary
00:19:17.220 student movement
00:19:18.360 over the last
00:19:19.600 two years
00:19:20.140 I'm involved
00:19:20.740 with a group
00:19:21.520 called CAFE Ottawa
00:19:23.600 CAFE stands
00:19:24.740 for the Canadian
00:19:25.860 Association for Equality
00:19:27.760 and it is
00:19:28.680 a extremely
00:19:30.000 moderate
00:19:30.920 men's advocacy
00:19:32.980 charity
00:19:34.080 and we've tried
00:19:36.240 to
00:19:36.720 I mean many
00:19:38.020 the members
00:19:38.500 of CAFE
00:19:40.120 consider themselves
00:19:41.200 feminists
00:19:42.060 you know
00:19:43.040 they're not
00:19:43.300 in any way
00:19:44.020 anti-feminist
00:19:44.720 I am myself
00:19:45.580 but they're not
00:19:46.900 they are simply
00:19:48.000 concerned with
00:19:49.240 the high rate
00:19:50.420 of suicide
00:19:51.160 amongst men
00:19:52.920 with the declining
00:19:53.820 enrollment of men
00:19:55.020 in higher education
00:19:56.200 with male homelessness
00:19:58.120 with the
00:19:59.000 differential
00:20:00.120 sentencing
00:20:00.860 of men
00:20:01.880 for the same
00:20:02.540 crimes
00:20:03.120 that women
00:20:04.580 commit
00:20:05.160 there are all
00:20:06.040 sorts of
00:20:06.920 very particular
00:20:07.920 problems
00:20:09.060 facing men
00:20:09.740 in our society
00:20:10.440 that members
00:20:10.940 of CAFE
00:20:11.400 want to address
00:20:12.280 but that is
00:20:13.000 not allowed
00:20:13.860 according to
00:20:14.900 the revolutionary
00:20:15.560 student movement
00:20:16.520 we've tried
00:20:17.400 to have a number
00:20:18.200 of speakers
00:20:18.840 on campus
00:20:19.640 over this past
00:20:20.580 year
00:20:21.000 many of them
00:20:22.840 well published
00:20:24.900 respected scholars
00:20:26.480 the last one
00:20:27.620 a gay man
00:20:28.800 who considers
00:20:29.480 himself
00:20:30.760 pro-feminist
00:20:32.020 but is interested
00:20:32.760 in questions
00:20:33.440 of male identity
00:20:34.620 in what he
00:20:36.000 considers a
00:20:36.620 misandric
00:20:37.260 culture
00:20:37.740 anyway
00:20:38.340 every single
00:20:39.660 time
00:20:40.080 they have
00:20:40.520 protested
00:20:41.720 of course
00:20:42.380 there's nothing
00:20:42.660 wrong with
00:20:43.020 protesting
00:20:43.500 but they've
00:20:44.000 blocked the
00:20:44.540 entrance
00:20:45.120 to the rooms
00:20:47.080 they've pulled
00:20:47.900 the fire alarm
00:20:48.800 they've shouted
00:20:49.800 down speakers
00:20:50.820 their behavior
00:20:51.600 is atrocious
00:20:52.500 and yet
00:20:53.120 on the last
00:20:53.960 occasion
00:20:54.420 when we finally
00:20:55.140 had the police
00:20:55.780 come
00:20:56.200 and the police
00:20:57.120 told them
00:20:57.600 that if they
00:20:58.140 were really
00:20:58.720 committed
00:20:59.420 to getting
00:21:00.660 arrested
00:21:01.140 for their views
00:21:02.740 the police
00:21:03.520 would oblige
00:21:04.200 them
00:21:04.420 and would
00:21:04.700 arrest them
00:21:05.260 so they
00:21:05.620 scuttled
00:21:06.400 away
00:21:06.740 immediately
00:21:07.320 and then
00:21:07.740 they went
00:21:08.040 on to
00:21:08.340 Facebook
00:21:08.740 immediately
00:21:09.420 to say
00:21:09.980 that this
00:21:10.360 terrible act
00:21:11.560 of oppressive
00:21:13.720 force
00:21:14.360 had been used
00:21:15.240 against them
00:21:16.240 their attachment
00:21:18.480 to this narrative
00:21:19.400 of seeing
00:21:19.860 themselves
00:21:20.320 as the
00:21:20.860 innocent
00:21:21.220 victims
00:21:21.760 of political
00:21:22.800 oppression
00:21:23.200 is so devout
00:21:26.340 so yeah
00:21:27.720 this is
00:21:28.260 this is
00:21:28.680 the way
00:21:28.980 it is
00:21:29.600 at many
00:21:30.020 Canadian
00:21:30.480 and as
00:21:31.200 you know
00:21:31.520 many
00:21:31.860 North
00:21:32.800 American
00:21:33.260 universities
00:21:34.260 the few
00:21:35.180 staunch
00:21:36.420 feminist
00:21:38.380 radicals
00:21:39.240 on campus
00:21:40.180 are determined
00:21:41.480 to make it
00:21:42.080 miserable
00:21:42.740 for the others
00:21:43.800 who want to
00:21:44.280 have discussions
00:21:44.980 about these
00:21:45.760 very important
00:21:46.720 issues
00:21:47.120 I find too
00:21:47.820 whenever it's
00:21:48.460 these small
00:21:48.920 men's groups
00:21:49.540 that get
00:21:49.900 together
00:21:50.260 it generally
00:21:50.860 tends to be
00:21:51.460 a lot of
00:21:51.800 European men
00:21:52.520 uh oh
00:21:52.980 can't have
00:21:53.420 any European
00:21:54.000 men in a
00:21:54.580 club anymore
00:21:55.100 right
00:21:55.380 that's
00:21:55.640 practically
00:21:56.040 slavery
00:21:56.560 there
00:21:56.940 right
00:21:57.200 you know
00:21:57.520 you brought
00:21:58.580 up rape
00:21:59.140 culture
00:21:59.500 and it's
00:21:59.800 interesting
00:22:00.160 because
00:22:00.600 these people
00:22:01.200 obviously
00:22:01.540 don't travel
00:22:02.320 you know
00:22:02.680 I've been
00:22:02.940 around the
00:22:03.300 world
00:22:03.600 I keep
00:22:04.000 up on
00:22:04.280 what's
00:22:04.500 going on
00:22:04.900 with the
00:22:05.300 you know
00:22:05.560 European
00:22:05.980 invasion
00:22:06.760 I mean
00:22:07.120 we've got
00:22:07.480 rape
00:22:07.800 you brought
00:22:08.140 up Rotherham
00:22:08.920 and migrants
00:22:09.700 that are raping
00:22:10.300 you know
00:22:10.620 all across
00:22:11.160 Europe
00:22:11.440 I live in
00:22:12.380 Sweden
00:22:12.640 part-time
00:22:13.240 there's a
00:22:13.980 true rape
00:22:14.560 epidemic
00:22:14.960 there and
00:22:15.500 it's now
00:22:15.800 coming from
00:22:16.320 the Swedish
00:22:16.720 population
00:22:17.360 it just
00:22:18.340 baffles me
00:22:18.940 that the
00:22:19.320 feminists
00:22:19.720 just overlook
00:22:20.560 this all the
00:22:21.120 time and
00:22:21.500 generally
00:22:21.900 they tend
00:22:22.420 to be
00:22:22.960 white
00:22:23.560 women
00:22:23.860 so how
00:22:24.240 does a
00:22:24.580 white
00:22:24.880 woman
00:22:25.220 today
00:22:25.540 get into
00:22:26.060 modern
00:22:26.520 feminism
00:22:27.080 because we
00:22:27.680 have it
00:22:28.200 better than
00:22:28.660 anyone else
00:22:29.120 in the
00:22:29.300 world
00:22:29.540 right
00:22:29.860 yeah
00:22:31.220 but that's
00:22:31.920 not what
00:22:32.800 feminism
00:22:33.480 is about
00:22:34.640 feminism
00:22:35.880 is not
00:22:36.520 about looking
00:22:37.240 at reality
00:22:38.080 and being
00:22:38.780 concerned
00:22:39.380 about the
00:22:40.140 situation
00:22:40.800 of
00:22:41.540 women
00:22:42.980 in Arab
00:22:43.900 countries
00:22:44.560 for instance
00:22:45.320 or in
00:22:46.020 cities with
00:22:46.640 a large
00:22:47.100 Muslim
00:22:47.600 population
00:22:48.260 and the
00:22:49.440 effects
00:22:50.020 on women
00:22:50.740 as a
00:22:52.020 result
00:22:52.420 what
00:22:53.000 feminism
00:22:53.500 is about
00:22:54.160 now
00:22:54.640 I think
00:22:55.140 and maybe
00:22:55.560 always has
00:22:56.320 been to a
00:22:56.860 certain extent
00:22:57.540 it's about
00:22:58.340 a claim
00:22:59.180 of innocence
00:23:00.920 through
00:23:01.620 victimhood
00:23:02.680 and part
00:23:04.100 of that
00:23:04.520 claim
00:23:05.120 involves
00:23:05.900 targeting
00:23:06.620 a particular
00:23:08.000 source of
00:23:08.640 evil
00:23:09.000 which is
00:23:09.700 as you
00:23:10.160 said
00:23:10.640 white
00:23:11.240 western
00:23:12.320 capitalist
00:23:13.780 hetero
00:23:14.640 patriarchal
00:23:15.760 culture
00:23:16.280 that is
00:23:17.340 the source
00:23:18.040 of evil
00:23:18.840 and the
00:23:19.340 white
00:23:19.760 woman
00:23:20.220 secures
00:23:21.040 her
00:23:21.440 innocent
00:23:22.080 victimhood
00:23:23.620 by opposing
00:23:24.740 herself
00:23:25.380 to that
00:23:26.320 and that
00:23:27.420 means
00:23:27.940 that any
00:23:28.560 other
00:23:29.120 of the
00:23:30.560 supposed
00:23:31.160 victims
00:23:31.900 of
00:23:32.800 white
00:23:33.400 western
00:23:34.060 hetero
00:23:34.620 patriarchal
00:23:35.500 capitalistic
00:23:36.320 culture
00:23:36.980 those other
00:23:38.460 victims
00:23:39.000 must not
00:23:39.900 be criticized
00:23:40.720 and in fact
00:23:41.700 the white
00:23:42.200 western
00:23:42.660 feminist
00:23:43.240 who understands
00:23:44.300 that she
00:23:44.680 is privileged
00:23:45.580 as a white
00:23:46.520 woman
00:23:46.940 but rather
00:23:48.220 than aligning
00:23:49.400 herself with
00:23:50.360 the victims
00:23:51.480 of
00:23:52.140 muslim
00:23:53.580 supremacy
00:23:54.260 or of
00:23:56.060 barbaric
00:23:56.880 cultures
00:23:57.540 elsewhere in
00:23:58.260 the world
00:23:58.820 rather than
00:23:59.760 doing that
00:24:00.280 she aligns
00:24:01.200 herself with
00:24:01.900 those cultures
00:24:03.120 as the
00:24:03.920 supposed
00:24:04.340 victims of
00:24:05.260 white western
00:24:06.020 patriarchal
00:24:07.220 tyranny
00:24:07.720 and that
00:24:08.700 means that
00:24:09.420 feminism
00:24:10.280 has declared
00:24:11.220 a kind of
00:24:12.100 peace agreement
00:24:12.960 with islam
00:24:14.320 as the
00:24:14.960 other
00:24:15.400 western
00:24:16.720 culture
00:24:17.340 and so
00:24:18.180 feminists
00:24:18.700 will
00:24:18.920 studiously
00:24:19.620 look the
00:24:20.260 other way
00:24:20.900 when presented
00:24:22.440 with clear
00:24:23.320 evidence that
00:24:24.120 women have
00:24:24.660 it far
00:24:25.440 worse
00:24:26.100 in these
00:24:27.180 other places
00:24:28.460 that there
00:24:29.540 is a real
00:24:30.260 patriarchy
00:24:31.200 in much of
00:24:32.420 the muslim
00:24:32.900 world
00:24:33.440 that these
00:24:34.200 are places
00:24:34.740 where women's
00:24:35.840 safety
00:24:36.280 women's
00:24:37.180 self-determination
00:24:38.240 is you know
00:24:39.340 absolutely under
00:24:40.500 threat
00:24:41.020 where acrocious
00:24:41.900 things are
00:24:42.680 done to
00:24:43.140 women and
00:24:43.580 girls
00:24:43.920 but rather
00:24:44.920 than actually
00:24:45.600 look at that
00:24:46.320 feminists are
00:24:46.920 more interested
00:24:48.060 in securing
00:24:48.940 their own
00:24:50.240 innocence
00:24:50.820 by pointing
00:24:52.200 the finger
00:24:52.780 always at
00:24:53.860 western
00:24:55.100 health
00:24:55.460 yeah because
00:24:56.640 it's interesting
00:24:57.420 to me how do
00:24:58.080 you go from
00:24:58.940 you know a lot
00:24:59.600 of white
00:24:59.880 feminists
00:25:00.500 they're marching
00:25:01.680 in the streets
00:25:02.420 topless like
00:25:03.460 you see in
00:25:03.880 Europe and
00:25:04.660 then the next
00:25:05.100 day the next
00:25:05.820 week they're
00:25:06.300 wearing a hijab
00:25:07.140 right
00:25:07.560 I mean how
00:25:09.420 does that work
00:25:10.360 it's crazy
00:25:11.300 isn't it
00:25:11.760 yeah it's
00:25:12.120 crazy
00:25:12.380 well it has
00:25:12.920 to do with
00:25:13.440 the deferral
00:25:14.360 to the
00:25:15.780 other and
00:25:17.000 because the
00:25:17.720 ultimate other
00:25:18.620 now in
00:25:19.580 north american
00:25:20.860 and european
00:25:22.280 society is
00:25:23.060 supposedly the
00:25:24.480 woman in
00:25:25.580 wearing the
00:25:26.320 hijab she is
00:25:27.180 supposedly you
00:25:28.040 know subject
00:25:28.500 to all sorts
00:25:29.660 of white
00:25:30.420 western
00:25:30.840 oppression
00:25:32.560 and so
00:25:33.940 white white
00:25:35.320 western feminists
00:25:36.420 proclaim their
00:25:37.640 righteousness by
00:25:38.960 dressing up
00:25:40.300 in the hijab
00:25:41.180 and you know
00:25:41.760 telling us
00:25:42.320 that we
00:25:42.580 mustn't look
00:25:43.100 askance
00:25:43.740 or and
00:25:44.240 we you know
00:25:45.100 we have to
00:25:45.680 honor this
00:25:47.100 particular form
00:25:48.700 of dress even
00:25:50.620 though if that
00:25:51.620 were being
00:25:52.220 imposed from
00:25:54.000 white men it
00:25:56.520 would be
00:25:56.780 something that
00:25:57.420 feminists would
00:25:58.360 adamantly object
00:25:59.960 to yes but
00:26:01.500 because it is
00:26:02.440 muslim it is
00:26:03.500 therefore you
00:26:04.560 know to be
00:26:05.340 respected and
00:26:06.540 and deferred to
00:26:07.540 and and
00:26:08.380 and there's
00:26:08.560 of course a
00:26:09.120 bizarre uh
00:26:10.820 one-way street
00:26:12.160 of respect in
00:26:13.500 that white
00:26:14.140 best feminists
00:26:15.420 will have
00:26:16.660 great respect
00:26:17.800 for the
00:26:18.200 hijab even
00:26:19.580 for the
00:26:19.980 niqab you
00:26:20.700 know there's a
00:26:21.340 great deal of
00:26:22.040 interest in
00:26:22.700 canada uh
00:26:24.020 in in
00:26:24.680 celebrating the
00:26:25.860 niqab as
00:26:26.880 somehow freeing
00:26:28.220 as you know
00:26:28.960 a woman's
00:26:29.960 choice uh
00:26:30.980 you know as
00:26:31.360 as a liberating
00:26:32.760 um way of
00:26:34.240 being in the
00:26:34.860 world uh
00:26:36.140 but you can
00:26:36.640 bet that white
00:26:37.620 feminists don't
00:26:38.600 ask um
00:26:39.780 muslim women to
00:26:40.920 march topless in
00:26:42.480 their slut walks
00:26:43.580 with them as
00:26:44.740 that would be
00:26:45.400 oh to impose
00:26:46.400 you know
00:26:46.760 version of
00:26:48.200 freedom a
00:26:49.200 western version
00:26:49.880 of freedom
00:26:50.400 everything western
00:26:51.380 is contaminated
00:26:52.460 according to
00:26:53.560 the that's
00:26:54.480 right yeah
00:26:55.340 that the
00:26:55.820 the marxist
00:26:56.700 feminist kind
00:26:57.700 of world view
00:26:58.540 that's what must
00:26:59.380 be destroyed
00:27:00.160 that's right
00:27:00.900 so i want to
00:27:01.820 talk about the
00:27:02.240 effects of you
00:27:03.040 know mainstream
00:27:03.520 feminism on a
00:27:04.620 girl i mean
00:27:05.080 how does it
00:27:05.580 change her
00:27:06.080 she comes
00:27:06.520 into college
00:27:07.120 you know
00:27:07.700 she's fresh
00:27:08.620 she's innocent
00:27:09.220 and then she
00:27:09.840 goes through
00:27:10.240 some of these
00:27:10.700 courses you know
00:27:11.580 women's courses
00:27:12.340 and then she
00:27:13.000 thinks differently
00:27:14.260 you had done a
00:27:15.260 video about how
00:27:16.020 it teaches them
00:27:16.620 to kind of
00:27:17.040 channel resentment
00:27:17.920 right yeah
00:27:19.440 i i mean i
00:27:20.500 think it it
00:27:21.340 is absolutely
00:27:22.680 damaging because
00:27:24.860 what it does is
00:27:26.080 it offers a
00:27:27.520 extremely seductive
00:27:29.900 rationale for
00:27:31.360 all of one
00:27:32.980 you know a way
00:27:33.600 of challenging
00:27:34.300 challenge for
00:27:35.340 channeling
00:27:36.300 all of one's
00:27:37.860 resentments
00:27:38.780 all of one's
00:27:39.680 dissatisfactions
00:27:40.840 whether with
00:27:41.420 one's body
00:27:42.240 shape or
00:27:43.080 with you know
00:27:43.680 one's career
00:27:44.580 path or
00:27:45.480 one's love
00:27:46.240 life or
00:27:46.740 whatever it
00:27:47.140 happens to
00:27:47.580 be
00:27:47.960 it promises
00:27:49.600 you a kind
00:27:51.700 of innocence
00:27:52.500 nothing is
00:27:53.440 your fault
00:27:54.120 it can all
00:27:54.920 be pinned on
00:27:55.820 the patriarchy
00:27:56.800 in some way
00:27:58.100 it it it
00:27:59.780 affirms a sense
00:28:01.540 of frustration
00:28:02.480 and anger
00:28:03.380 at an
00:28:03.780 external enemy
00:28:04.840 it encourages
00:28:06.080 a refusal
00:28:07.520 of personal
00:28:08.340 responsibility
00:28:09.300 and it is
00:28:11.900 a warping
00:28:12.840 world view
00:28:13.840 feels really
00:28:14.800 good to
00:28:15.460 imagine
00:28:15.900 oneself an
00:28:16.880 innocent victim
00:28:17.760 of external
00:28:18.440 forces and
00:28:20.180 yet you
00:28:22.860 know I
00:28:23.340 think what
00:28:23.700 it does
00:28:24.260 to young
00:28:25.760 women's
00:28:26.200 understanding
00:28:26.880 of the
00:28:27.360 real
00:28:27.700 possibilities
00:28:28.720 for young
00:28:29.880 women in
00:28:30.380 our society
00:28:31.200 and and
00:28:32.020 their perception
00:28:33.280 of men
00:28:33.940 their perception
00:28:35.080 of you know
00:28:36.320 the possibilities
00:28:37.000 of marriage
00:28:37.660 and bearing
00:28:39.880 children the
00:28:40.640 kinds of
00:28:41.040 things that
00:28:41.520 most women
00:28:42.320 probably still
00:28:43.220 want to do
00:28:44.180 yet it it
00:28:45.500 teaches them
00:28:46.160 that these
00:28:46.480 are things
00:28:46.800 they shouldn't
00:28:47.480 want
00:28:48.120 it's oppression
00:28:49.360 right having
00:28:49.960 children anymore
00:28:50.660 yeah you know
00:28:51.360 they should
00:28:51.800 despise these
00:28:53.160 options
00:28:53.780 it's I
00:28:55.640 think incredibly
00:28:56.580 damaging
00:28:57.320 precisely because
00:28:58.740 it's so seductive
00:29:00.280 I mean I loved
00:29:01.120 it there was
00:29:01.580 nothing you know
00:29:02.280 it it gives
00:29:03.580 you an identity
00:29:04.540 it gives you a
00:29:05.760 lot of things
00:29:06.240 to do
00:29:06.840 it enables
00:29:08.380 you to feel
00:29:09.140 very sophisticated
00:29:10.680 it gives you a
00:29:11.660 ready-made
00:29:12.100 analysis of nearly
00:29:13.160 any situation
00:29:14.120 you're presented
00:29:14.900 with a little
00:29:15.580 cookie-cutter
00:29:16.300 kind of framework
00:29:17.260 for applying
00:29:18.340 to nearly
00:29:20.100 anything and
00:29:21.620 yet what it
00:29:22.380 offers is
00:29:23.300 it is lies
00:29:24.680 you hear all
00:29:25.480 of these
00:29:25.760 statistics about
00:29:26.960 you know one
00:29:27.720 in four women
00:29:28.380 being raped in
00:29:29.040 their lifetime
00:29:29.540 if you actually
00:29:30.140 investigate the
00:29:31.300 source of those
00:29:31.880 statistics you
00:29:33.020 find that it's
00:29:34.120 very dubious
00:29:35.080 it's a case of
00:29:36.900 researchers defining
00:29:39.040 what counts as
00:29:40.000 rape or sexual
00:29:40.960 assault rather than
00:29:41.900 the supposed
00:29:42.860 victims of these
00:29:44.080 experiences and
00:29:45.780 you hear that and
00:29:46.620 you become enraged
00:29:47.960 as a relatively
00:29:49.020 innocent young
00:29:50.020 woman and you
00:29:51.200 come into a
00:29:51.940 community that
00:29:53.140 affirms your
00:29:53.980 specialness
00:29:54.860 affirms that you
00:29:56.920 deserve all sorts
00:29:58.180 of special
00:29:58.800 protective measures
00:29:59.920 and I think it
00:30:01.920 actually delays
00:30:03.180 women's maturity
00:30:04.480 oh yeah
00:30:04.980 definitely
00:30:05.440 you know and
00:30:06.600 and their
00:30:07.360 understanding of
00:30:09.140 the world in
00:30:10.000 really devastating
00:30:12.300 ways
00:30:13.040 you brought up
00:30:14.020 you know the
00:30:14.440 victim mentality
00:30:15.360 and I see
00:30:15.980 nowadays you know
00:30:16.840 our society in
00:30:17.540 America too
00:30:18.240 it's the highest
00:30:19.640 status you can
00:30:20.600 have is to be a
00:30:21.780 victim anymore
00:30:22.480 right there's like a
00:30:23.240 hierarchy of
00:30:23.920 victims and you
00:30:24.760 did a video kind
00:30:25.560 of talking about
00:30:26.240 it how you know
00:30:26.960 it gives them a
00:30:27.540 moral innocence like
00:30:28.380 you were talking
00:30:28.900 about and a
00:30:29.620 courage and they
00:30:30.760 think they're more
00:30:31.420 authentic through
00:30:32.420 through being a
00:30:33.340 victim but when
00:30:34.380 did this victim
00:30:35.260 mentality start to
00:30:36.260 ooze into the
00:30:37.360 universities I
00:30:38.260 mean who or
00:30:38.780 what is the
00:30:39.420 push behind
00:30:40.200 this yeah I
00:30:41.920 I do think that
00:30:43.420 it has a great
00:30:43.960 deal to do with
00:30:44.920 the introduction
00:30:46.060 of various kinds
00:30:47.760 of identity
00:30:48.560 studies in
00:30:49.920 starting in the
00:30:50.920 1970s with
00:30:52.300 women's studies
00:30:53.140 which is now
00:30:53.960 transmogrified
00:30:55.640 into general
00:30:58.060 kind of gender
00:30:59.080 studies which
00:31:01.000 pushed the idea
00:31:02.460 that women's
00:31:03.400 identity and
00:31:04.580 their their
00:31:05.260 claim to
00:31:06.180 special status
00:31:07.120 their claim
00:31:07.920 to be listened
00:31:09.440 to seriously
00:31:10.520 came through
00:31:11.160 victimhood and
00:31:11.880 then that spread
00:31:12.560 now to a bunch
00:31:13.700 of other identity
00:31:15.240 studies types of
00:31:16.540 programs which
00:31:18.220 really encourage
00:31:19.280 narcissism self
00:31:21.480 obsession self
00:31:22.820 pity black
00:31:25.220 studies for
00:31:26.080 instance aboriginal
00:31:27.320 studies Chicano
00:31:28.700 studies all of
00:31:29.920 these different
00:31:30.540 forms of focus
00:31:33.920 on various
00:31:35.500 different kinds of
00:31:36.880 victimhood and
00:31:37.740 it has become
00:31:38.480 the case I
00:31:38.980 think if you're
00:31:40.040 a young person
00:31:40.980 attending
00:31:41.980 discussions you
00:31:42.960 very quickly
00:31:43.880 notice that the
00:31:44.940 way to command
00:31:46.500 respect and
00:31:47.760 attention from
00:31:48.700 people is to
00:31:49.820 tell your victim
00:31:50.480 story yeah you
00:31:52.000 know and then
00:31:52.520 then people won't
00:31:53.400 they won't I
00:31:54.220 mean it's
00:31:54.440 incredible kind
00:31:55.560 of privilege it
00:31:56.380 means people won't
00:31:57.140 contradict you
00:31:58.100 because they
00:31:58.660 are not you
00:31:59.760 know and so
00:32:00.320 immediately you
00:32:02.080 don't have to even
00:32:02.800 speak sense you
00:32:03.980 just have to tell
00:32:04.900 your sad tale and
00:32:07.300 then people will
00:32:08.280 defer to you if
00:32:09.900 you can cry if
00:32:11.580 you can be you
00:32:12.500 know really
00:32:12.940 emotionally distraught
00:32:14.580 as you're telling
00:32:15.200 your story that's
00:32:16.160 even better and
00:32:17.000 young people very
00:32:17.860 quickly pick up on
00:32:18.980 the fact that that
00:32:20.060 is the root for
00:32:21.060 power and so if
00:32:22.480 you're a you know
00:32:23.000 young white guy
00:32:24.100 what do you you
00:32:25.200 have no victim
00:32:26.220 story no he
00:32:26.940 doesn't yeah
00:32:28.180 so you now we
00:32:29.080 see even young
00:32:30.120 men you know
00:32:31.180 seeking some
00:32:32.740 way to fit
00:32:33.420 themselves into
00:32:34.600 this particular
00:32:36.660 victimhood olympics
00:32:39.500 or else as
00:32:40.860 we've seen
00:32:41.840 in the as I
00:32:44.340 is being shown
00:32:45.600 right in this
00:32:46.820 clip here
00:32:47.820 yeah that was a
00:32:49.700 good one
00:32:50.180 you have men
00:32:51.940 one after the
00:32:53.320 other apologizing
00:32:54.920 before they even
00:32:55.780 say anything
00:32:56.700 they've got to
00:32:57.780 apologize for
00:32:58.960 their privilege
00:32:59.840 I think that's
00:33:01.020 so sad and
00:33:01.820 to itemize
00:33:02.720 the various
00:33:03.340 ways in which
00:33:04.120 they're privileged
00:33:04.820 that's the only
00:33:05.660 way they're allowed
00:33:06.420 to to speak
00:33:07.860 and to ask for
00:33:09.220 any kind of
00:33:09.820 respect it's a
00:33:11.780 you know instead
00:33:12.340 of judging people
00:33:13.320 according to their
00:33:14.140 qualities and their
00:33:15.060 achievements and
00:33:16.040 the you know the
00:33:17.120 integrity of their
00:33:18.140 analysis or their
00:33:19.380 command of facts
00:33:20.540 it all comes down
00:33:22.440 to where one can
00:33:24.220 insert oneself
00:33:25.280 into the hierarchy
00:33:26.760 of victims
00:33:27.500 and really the
00:33:28.400 one group that
00:33:29.260 you can criticize
00:33:30.540 is the one
00:33:31.500 that's suppressed
00:33:32.120 and what group
00:33:32.800 is that that
00:33:33.460 would be white
00:33:34.120 males right
00:33:34.880 so I think that
00:33:36.500 they don't have
00:33:37.020 a victim story
00:33:37.680 but it's actually
00:33:38.240 unfolding before
00:33:39.260 their eyes you
00:33:40.100 know
00:33:40.300 yeah well and
00:33:41.600 that's it you
00:33:42.160 know when I
00:33:42.600 started this gig
00:33:43.620 which is really
00:33:44.180 only about three
00:33:44.940 years ago that
00:33:45.620 was when I gave
00:33:46.200 my first talk at
00:33:47.320 the University of
00:33:48.080 Toronto where they
00:33:48.840 also pulled the
00:33:49.580 fire alarm and
00:33:50.760 and a lot of
00:33:52.820 people were very
00:33:53.660 upset that I was
00:33:54.680 speaking there in a
00:33:56.340 in a critical way
00:33:57.760 of feminism but at
00:33:58.840 that point really my
00:34:00.320 concern was was
00:34:01.860 purely academic
00:34:04.020 feminism which I
00:34:05.060 saw as a as not
00:34:07.320 really a scholarly
00:34:08.200 subject at all and
00:34:09.780 I still feel that a
00:34:10.780 scholarly subject
00:34:11.720 should have as its
00:34:13.500 main goal the
00:34:15.020 pursuit of truth and
00:34:16.100 it should look at a
00:34:17.060 subject from a whole
00:34:18.080 variety of angles and
00:34:19.980 if it's not doing
00:34:20.660 that then it
00:34:21.180 shouldn't be in a
00:34:21.660 university at all if
00:34:23.360 it has an ideological
00:34:24.040 agenda shouldn't be in
00:34:25.600 the university so
00:34:26.600 that was my simple
00:34:27.780 point it's a
00:34:28.800 contentious one but
00:34:29.680 that was the only
00:34:30.260 point I really wanted
00:34:31.160 to make and after
00:34:32.260 that though I got a
00:34:33.880 flood of emails and
00:34:35.300 I still get them to
00:34:36.400 this day from young
00:34:38.380 men and some not so
00:34:39.960 young men talking
00:34:41.320 about their
00:34:42.520 experiences at
00:34:44.540 university or just in
00:34:46.160 the world and what
00:34:47.220 it means to be told
00:34:48.680 basically from
00:34:49.700 day one that you
00:34:51.360 are the lesser
00:34:52.640 sex that you are
00:34:54.860 disgusting that your
00:34:56.700 society has good
00:34:58.000 reason not to like
00:34:59.500 you very much that
00:35:01.300 when bad things
00:35:02.340 happen to men and
00:35:03.780 boys doesn't really
00:35:05.080 matter that when
00:35:06.060 anything bad happens
00:35:07.260 to girls and women
00:35:08.460 it really really does
00:35:10.040 matter that special
00:35:11.500 programs special
00:35:12.860 advantages special
00:35:14.280 special hiring
00:35:15.600 protocols all of that
00:35:17.520 that's been going on
00:35:18.360 for years now in the
00:35:19.900 western world all of
00:35:21.400 that is perfectly fine
00:35:22.560 you can't complain
00:35:23.600 about it if you do
00:35:24.600 complain about it that
00:35:25.620 means you're hateful and
00:35:27.320 bigoted that you have
00:35:29.080 to accept second class
00:35:31.080 status and you have to
00:35:32.080 be quiet about it and
00:35:33.460 even grateful about it
00:35:35.080 they so many young men
00:35:37.700 talk to me about what
00:35:39.080 it is like to be on the
00:35:40.240 receiving end of this
00:35:41.780 year after year after
00:35:43.440 year to feel yourself
00:35:45.260 passed over to feel
00:35:47.000 that you're held in
00:35:48.420 contempt by your
00:35:49.940 culture and that no
00:35:50.820 matter what you do
00:35:51.700 it's never going to be
00:35:52.580 enough because women
00:35:53.840 are the ones whose
00:35:54.820 experiences really
00:35:56.120 matter and I started
00:35:57.640 thinking more and more
00:35:58.740 about that experience
00:35:59.760 and just came to seem
00:36:00.980 to me almost
00:36:01.780 unbelievable that we're
00:36:03.020 putting one half of
00:36:04.740 the human race through
00:36:06.920 that this kind of
00:36:08.100 experience and expecting
00:36:09.900 that it's not going to
00:36:10.980 have really serious
00:36:13.100 consequences for
00:36:14.880 society overall and
00:36:16.680 I've talked to so
00:36:17.580 many young men and
00:36:18.640 say I just don't
00:36:19.460 really care like I
00:36:20.580 don't want to why
00:36:21.820 would I want to
00:36:22.460 contribute anything to
00:36:24.460 my society why would
00:36:26.140 I want to get married
00:36:27.260 when marriage is a
00:36:28.580 trap that causes men's
00:36:30.480 lives to become
00:36:31.660 hellish if they happen
00:36:33.660 to marry the wrong
00:36:34.660 woman all she has to
00:36:35.940 do is accuse them of
00:36:38.740 being violent they can
00:36:40.760 find themselves barred
00:36:42.320 from their own home
00:36:43.760 barred from seeing
00:36:45.800 their children maybe
00:36:46.920 for the rest of their
00:36:48.060 lives and yet forced
00:36:50.160 also to financially
00:36:51.500 support that woman who
00:36:53.180 told those lies about
00:36:54.300 them and those children
00:36:55.680 that they're not even
00:36:56.360 allowed to see anymore
00:36:57.600 so that's a dead end
00:36:59.480 for a lot of young men
00:37:00.920 looking at what marriage
00:37:02.440 has come to mean
00:37:03.520 legally for men
00:37:05.240 or you go into the
00:37:06.920 workplace there are
00:37:08.000 sexual harassment
00:37:09.160 policies in place that
00:37:10.660 mean that if you even
00:37:12.060 happen to just ask a
00:37:13.480 woman out on a date
00:37:14.980 and she doesn't like
00:37:16.780 you or you look at
00:37:18.460 her wrong or you
00:37:20.120 share a joke that
00:37:21.960 offends her these
00:37:23.580 minor trivial things
00:37:25.860 not even intentionally
00:37:27.420 offensive can land you
00:37:29.940 in serious trouble at
00:37:31.260 your workplace mean that
00:37:32.460 you're actually dismissed
00:37:33.700 or at least disciplined
00:37:34.840 for something you didn't
00:37:35.860 even intend to do and in
00:37:37.920 which workplaces in
00:37:39.180 general are becoming more
00:37:40.560 and more feminized spaces
00:37:42.000 because there's this huge
00:37:43.120 push to make sure that
00:37:44.820 workplaces are places
00:37:45.860 where women feel
00:37:47.100 comfortable and if that
00:37:49.040 happens to me that men
00:37:49.980 don't feel comfortable
00:37:51.240 well nobody cares because
00:37:53.020 of course nobody
00:37:54.100 sympathizes with men's
00:37:55.680 feelings of discomfort
00:37:56.680 so in the area where men
00:37:59.460 were traditionally able
00:38:01.800 to achieve the workplace
00:38:03.720 that has now become a
00:38:05.020 feminized space in the
00:38:06.940 home men have no rights
00:38:09.500 at all if a man is being
00:38:11.680 beaten by his wife and he
00:38:13.440 makes the mistake of
00:38:14.340 phoning the police in most
00:38:16.220 cases he's the one that's
00:38:17.980 going to end up being
00:38:18.780 arrested he's the one
00:38:19.980 that's going to end up
00:38:20.760 taking some kind of you
00:38:21.840 know having to take a
00:38:22.640 course on learning not to
00:38:25.040 be violent anymore so in
00:38:27.800 every realm men feel that
00:38:30.340 they're at a complete
00:38:31.240 disadvantage so a lot of
00:38:32.680 men are saying to me why
00:38:33.960 would I want to contribute
00:38:34.940 to any of it I'm just
00:38:36.120 going to live under the
00:38:37.280 radar as much as possible
00:38:38.960 I'm going to contribute to
00:38:40.560 the economy as little as
00:38:42.160 possible I'm not going to
00:38:43.520 marry I'm not going to
00:38:44.440 father children I'm not
00:38:45.900 going to really risk
00:38:47.660 anything and if that it's
00:38:49.780 a number of those men
00:38:50.840 grows which I don't see
00:38:52.020 why it shouldn't we're in
00:38:53.880 huge huge yeah men are
00:38:55.580 society builders right so
00:38:57.420 what needs to change to
00:38:58.800 balance it out I know guys
00:39:00.200 are really beaten down but
00:39:01.300 eventually they have to
00:39:02.180 wisen up and toughen up
00:39:03.620 right and and push back
00:39:04.960 at some point yeah well
00:39:06.660 you know it's that's it's
00:39:08.260 so difficult you know for
00:39:09.720 men to do because an
00:39:11.680 individual man just looks
00:39:13.660 around says you know I
00:39:14.980 I can't afford to to you
00:39:18.520 know to to rebel against
00:39:20.180 the system that I find
00:39:22.100 myself in I can't afford
00:39:23.520 to lose my job I don't I
00:39:25.560 can't afford to be hated
00:39:27.240 and to be accused of
00:39:28.580 misogyny or whatever it
00:39:30.300 happens to me so yeah there
00:39:31.480 there has there has to be a
00:39:32.900 collective movement on the
00:39:36.180 part of men and right
00:39:37.340 thinking women everywhere to
00:39:39.320 start looking honestly at the
00:39:41.960 actual relation of this of the
00:39:44.020 sexes and the need to care
00:39:46.880 about harms to men but I don't
00:39:49.600 know I mean you know the more
00:39:51.140 when I started in on this it
00:39:52.640 seems so obvious you know what
00:39:54.400 what needs to be done like why
00:39:55.900 wouldn't feminists say that
00:39:58.620 they care about equality so it
00:40:00.580 must be easy all you have to
00:40:01.580 do is show them the numbers
00:40:02.840 talk about the various
00:40:05.380 injustices you know and of
00:40:07.100 course feminists are going to
00:40:09.000 start caring about these
00:40:10.120 issues too and whenever you
00:40:11.280 talk to a self-proclaimed
00:40:12.880 feminist leader or activist
00:40:14.700 they always say oh yeah we
00:40:16.680 really care about harms to
00:40:18.580 men as well we're working to
00:40:19.920 make the world a better place
00:40:21.060 for everybody but then they
00:40:22.980 consistently oppose measures
00:40:25.780 such as shared parenting bills
00:40:29.120 or bills against paternity
00:40:31.860 fraud where men end up having
00:40:33.480 to financially support children
00:40:35.660 who aren't even theirs they
00:40:38.480 consistently oppose all of the
00:40:42.280 measures that men's advocates
00:40:43.800 are are interested in so so that's
00:40:45.960 a dead end I think working with
00:40:47.540 with feminists and and the more I
00:40:50.680 think about it the the astounding
00:40:53.020 fact is that our society I think
00:40:55.140 is so deeply woman focused oh
00:40:59.660 yeah you know so deeply invested
00:41:03.060 in caring more about women and
00:41:05.660 girls even unconsciously that it
00:41:07.440 isn't just radical feminists you
00:41:09.980 know who ignore men suffering it's
00:41:14.520 the society generally a lot of men
00:41:16.760 themselves for various reasons are
00:41:19.320 quite happy to see their brothers and
00:41:22.440 and their colleagues hurt so so I
00:41:27.840 don't really know I mean and then
00:41:29.940 you have on the opposite end in
00:41:31.520 in Europe you know you have lots of
00:41:33.100 feminists there but they're
00:41:34.320 actively covering up true rapes to
00:41:37.420 be politically correct about it
00:41:38.940 right to keep up this other
00:41:40.240 narrative going so you you have these
00:41:42.040 extremes going right now yeah yeah
00:41:44.700 absolutely yeah I mean that what's
00:41:46.760 going on in Europe is you know if you
00:41:51.460 had predicted that such would be the
00:41:54.100 case and that there would be this
00:41:55.580 absolutely perfect convergence of
00:41:59.300 radical feminism disempowering white
00:42:03.280 western men absolutely marginalizing
00:42:07.120 and sidelining them and radical Islam
00:42:11.800 which is of course promoting a violent
00:42:17.460 culture of rape and domination of women if
00:42:22.360 you could have predicted that that these
00:42:25.960 two forces would come together and would
00:42:28.240 work hand in hand and everybody in
00:42:31.240 amongst the political elite would allow
00:42:35.020 that convergence to take place one couldn't
00:42:39.980 imagine a more perfect recipe for the
00:42:43.180 destruction of western society yeah oh yeah and
00:42:46.280 then they're also feminizing western men
00:42:48.980 while also bringing in these cultures that
00:42:50.900 are very masculine right so then these
00:42:53.120 boys don't even know how to defend
00:42:54.320 themselves anymore and they're kind of
00:42:55.700 shocked when violence happens or even
00:42:58.940 creating a situation in which when many
00:43:02.720 white men probably think hey you know I'm
00:43:06.160 not going to be any worse off under
00:43:08.620 radical Islam I wouldn't be any worse off
00:43:11.340 under Sharia law than I am now in fact I'd
00:43:14.240 be better off under Sharia law I many white
00:43:17.840 men probably feel they're living under a
00:43:19.740 kind of Sharia law a feminist version of
00:43:22.960 Sharia law right now in which you know the
00:43:26.380 testimony of poor men is you know worth the
00:43:29.620 testimony of one woman where everything is
00:43:32.200 reversed so I think a lot of men think bring
00:43:34.600 on radical Islam it'd be better than the
00:43:37.520 situation that I exist under now so so yeah
00:43:41.560 feminization on the one hand and deep
00:43:45.060 seated anger and resentment in many
00:43:48.740 formerly well-intentioned men on the other
00:43:51.980 means that there aren't going to be very
00:43:53.800 many men to defend the civilization that
00:43:56.740 their forefathers built and that is the
00:43:59.920 greatest civilization and the most woman
00:44:02.380 valuing that's right progressive freest you
00:44:05.760 know most secure civilization that any woman
00:44:08.980 could hope to live in and and yet those very
00:44:12.020 women have created the conditions for that
00:44:14.580 civilization to be destroyed and I think it
00:44:18.220 is going to be destroyed unfortunately I
00:44:21.060 hope I feel that way too I feel like it's
00:44:23.620 going to collapse and if I just interviewed
00:44:25.800 Arthur Camp the other day and he wrote this
00:44:27.540 book March of the Titans and he basically
00:44:29.840 details how you know great civilizations how
00:44:32.260 once they've become multicultural except in
00:44:35.060 basically a lot of these kind of soft liberal
00:44:36.980 ideas they collapse you know and I think that
00:44:39.600 we're in the verge of of seeing that happen
00:44:41.980 you know so good people like us are going to
00:44:43.980 have to possibly be on the sidelines and
00:44:46.300 organize and think about what's next in the
00:44:48.440 future I'd love to see new universities being
00:44:50.500 built right yeah ones that aren't leftist
00:44:52.620 universities I wonder where are those people
00:44:54.400 why aren't those schools being made
00:44:55.860 yeah yeah I mean it's amazing to me the
00:44:59.180 degree to which the radical left has taken
00:45:01.860 over every university in in the western world
00:45:06.220 essentially and you know I talk amongst my
00:45:09.600 friends about you know what what could be done
00:45:11.680 like can we start off private institutions and
00:45:15.540 yet somehow the neither the will nor the funding
00:45:20.540 nor the vision seem to be present at the moment
00:45:25.260 to even begin getting such institutions off the
00:45:28.960 ground they exist in tiny pockets yeah but just
00:45:33.020 you know not in any sort of widespread way so
00:45:35.820 yeah I don't know it seems to me that things in
00:45:38.860 general in the culture are going to get a lot
00:45:41.240 worse before they get better and I'm not
00:45:45.280 confident that I will see them getting better
00:45:47.420 in my lifetime at all and I think there's going
00:45:50.360 to be a lot of bloodshed and really terrible
00:45:54.240 breakdown of social order before people finally
00:45:57.960 maybe see that what we had
00:46:01.340 was worth trying to rebuild but I don't know I
00:46:04.560 really I think there is a sort of death wish in
00:46:08.620 in people living in the west and it's a weird
00:46:12.000 situation in which a lot of people a lot of
00:46:15.000 leftist members of the intelligentsia members
00:46:18.120 of the elite they really do seem to have come to
00:46:21.420 hate what we have built yes they do and I don't
00:46:26.300 know whether I mean this is these are questions
00:46:28.220 it's pretty hard to answer like is there
00:46:30.060 something that just happens to human beings
00:46:33.000 when you're in a position where you don't have to
00:46:35.240 fight to survive anymore where you know essentially
00:46:37.940 everything is provided for us we have lives of
00:46:41.680 absolutely you know previously unimaginable
00:46:44.620 ease and security and does that then breed a kind of
00:46:49.120 bizarre hatred of that very ease and security I don't know what I
00:46:54.680 wonder this all the time and it's also created a self-hatred a lot of western
00:46:58.920 people they hate themselves they they don't like their people and once you
00:47:03.500 allow and entertain those kinds of thoughts you're doomed
00:47:06.760 if you can't even love yourself anymore
00:47:09.940 in your own history wow I find it bizarre I and you know of course that is the
00:47:16.180 other aspect of what's going on at western universities is this really deep self-loathing
00:47:24.360 western culture is now taught as a record of atrocities and if you ask
00:47:31.180 school children or first-year university students about the history of their country
00:47:35.880 or the history of the west in general they'll tell you that it is no better and probably even
00:47:42.680 worse than the history of any other civilization that the west has been uniquely you know rapacious
00:47:49.000 and violent and unjust and unfairing in its treatment of others and all of this there's
00:47:55.700 no sense of pride at all in what we achieved and yet any objective analysis of the record of western
00:48:04.560 civilization would have to concede that it has been amazingly tolerant and humane
00:48:09.960 so as a result largely because of the judeo-christian heritage and um the um enlightenment the belief that
00:48:21.180 our world was knowable that it was ordered that it was a good thing for human beings to pursue truth
00:48:28.020 and to pursue understanding all of that which is so rare so miraculous I mean it should be taught
00:48:35.060 that should be the one thing that every university student um you know in the west learns is is to
00:48:41.660 appreciate how amazing our achievements are and to feel gratitude to those people who brought us the
00:48:50.200 kind of civilization we have and yet it's it's the exact opposite uh people are taught contempt and
00:48:57.200 hatred for it I think that's the root of it is school education and then here in America we have our media
00:49:02.580 blasting the same thing entertainment blasting the same thing so it's it's really just everywhere
00:49:07.580 these young kids look and they grow up that way actually in Canada there's have you heard of
00:49:11.780 Ricardo Duchesne he's okay yeah he's written a great book I wish there were more teachers like you guys
00:49:17.320 because that would really change everything because we're not even being taught about the beauty of our
00:49:21.560 culture and the good aspects right we just hear all the negative aspects of European culture all day
00:49:26.040 long I know Canadians are really getting hammered right now too I was surprised what I hear coming out
00:49:31.100 from there you know yeah um you know Canadians we've created human rights tribunals so that anybody who
00:49:40.100 feels that in some way you know they are aggrieved uh they've been offended in some way they can take
00:49:48.240 people through these extremely unpleasant experiences where they have to defend themselves against charges of
00:49:56.380 hate speech etc etc etc and of course if you are white and male uh your offense doesn't count for
00:50:04.140 anything yeah you know it's only um particular uh victim groups who can uh charge others with these
00:50:12.260 terrible crimes of hatred and yeah it's like we decided to become a country that wanted to devour its
00:50:20.060 best and its brightest and yeah I know Ricardo a little bit and um I really admire his work and he is
00:50:28.480 yeah maybe the most hated professor in all of Canada he he's constantly slandered uh he's you know held up as
00:50:38.080 sort of you know terrible racist and and um you know ethnocentric uh hater and all of this and he isn't he is
00:50:47.200 very carefully studied what it is that uh allows cultures to to have liberal values and to prosper and
00:50:57.140 to be um culturally unified and to flourish and uh and what he has found is that multiculturalism actually
00:51:06.980 leads to the opposite and um that's a an issue that should be respectfully debated and just
00:51:15.740 obviously it makes a lot of people unhappy because we're so deeply wedded to the um multicultural ideal
00:51:23.540 um but um surely this is something worth very serious consideration for people who care about
00:51:30.780 the future exactly I mean what we're promoting is true diversity right we want cultures to to remain
00:51:36.220 distinct and be separate so that they can exist but the question is they're not pushing multiculturalism
00:51:42.140 anywhere else it just seems to be happening in the western countries right right right you know nobody
00:51:47.220 would say that you know if Japan should open its doors to the world and should happily accept the
00:51:53.920 complete dissolution of its culture uh that would seem bizarre and if if um you know Japanese nationals
00:52:02.900 said hey you know we we want our country to stay essentially the way it has always been we we love
00:52:09.700 what we have and we want to protect it nobody would say that was terribly terribly racist or anything
00:52:14.820 like that if anybody says that uh in in Canada or elsewhere uh the charge of racism comes out
00:52:22.860 automatically oh yeah very good as soon as they're losing a debate they just say racist right yeah I mean
00:52:28.420 the whole range of the most pressing issues facing our culture um it's no longer possible to talk about
00:52:34.540 those either at university or in you know sort of the public domain generally and so all we resort to
00:52:41.080 are these kinds of name callings and it almost sounds like you you need to create like almost like a secret
00:52:46.800 society a network of teachers who are kind of under the radar but know this stuff and maybe you can kind
00:52:52.320 of you know ease it into some of the curriculum or something because you almost have to go underground
00:52:57.020 like the communists went underground now right if you're if you're more traditional or on the right
00:53:02.380 you can't be so outspoken about it because a lot of people can get fired and harassed these days
00:53:06.860 yeah no it's pretty uncomfortable to uh to identify as as a conservative or any or libertarian
00:53:14.980 or anyone who objects in any way to the reigning orthodoxies about about gender about race about
00:53:22.460 Islam about um whatever it happens to be and uh yeah um you know part of the uh um i mean certainly
00:53:32.360 there are similarities to the situation under communism but i guess the difference was that
00:53:37.100 under communism i don't think many of the citizens actually believed that um the press was free you
00:53:43.840 know or that what they read in the state-controlled newspapers uh watched on the state uh controlled
00:53:50.960 um television uh shows nobody believed that that was the truth they knew it was propaganda and so
00:53:58.880 although um that was obviously a very repressive environment at least people you know they knew
00:54:06.460 what they were up against whereas my sense now and i have conversations with a lot of people is that
00:54:11.920 um they don't believe that we are living in a similarly kind of um distorted media environment where
00:54:20.500 much of what we read in the newspapers and watch on television news is so distorted as to be
00:54:27.580 very similar to the kind of communist propaganda that was being spread uh you know during the days of
00:54:33.400 the uh of the iron curtain and um you know most people i think think that what they hear on
00:54:39.320 state-funded broadcasters in canada for instance are are cbc that that is actually the truth
00:54:47.380 and so the level of um to what the extent to which people are deceived by mainstream propaganda seems
00:54:56.120 to me um really dangerously near total yeah well that's a course that should be taught right critical
00:55:03.640 thinking how to really break apart what's being said in the media because people just don't do it
00:55:08.520 anymore they just believe whatever is there exactly that's incredibly dangerous yeah yeah but whenever you
00:55:14.380 hear the phrase critical thinking or critical theory in university it means leftist oh yeah that's true
00:55:21.560 that is true the students soon learn that there are certain approved ideas and certain that you
00:55:27.640 absolutely cannot express if you hope to get out of university alive so critical thinking you know real
00:55:32.660 thinking um logical thinking logical argument those are the last things that are being taught in most
00:55:39.840 university classrooms yeah it's a real shame and and it's it's frightening do you think women today are
00:55:46.680 unhappier than they used to be in traditional times or even let's say the 50s i mean i look at 50s in
00:55:52.320 america women they looked more attractive they were fit they had these cute families you know versus today
00:55:58.380 it just seems like women are they're more miserable today do you see that in canada too do you think some of
00:56:03.460 that is feminism i don't know about that i mean i i'm i personally i'm very well you're happy but
00:56:11.500 maybe your average you know feminist today maybe she's really underneath they're unhappy miserable
00:56:17.120 well i it certainly seems that a lot of feminists aren't very happy um you know the the relentless
00:56:25.720 focus on all the things that are wrong with our society just can't produce happiness i don't think
00:56:32.920 i don't know i mean uh it's the question of what one does with one's freedom and i think women are
00:56:40.740 more free today than we have ever been in the past and um i think actually that is a difficult thing i
00:56:50.620 think freedom um means that we have to take responsibility for our choices and that means that
00:56:57.440 when we fail um we have to face the fact uh that that we're responsible for our failures and so i
00:57:06.600 think um maybe feminism is a way of avoiding that reality it's it's the um the framework that says
00:57:13.480 that when we fail it's because uh all of the forces ranged against us i mean i don't know i think the
00:57:20.600 human condition is is to be unhappy actually and i think it just simply takes different cultural forms
00:57:28.220 depending on the moment so i'm not sure about about women's happiness level so last question for you i
00:57:36.500 know this is a huge one but have you thought of any ways how we begin to defeat this mental disorder
00:57:42.460 you know called feminism or any of this anti-western kind of mentality because it seems like a virus to
00:57:48.460 me so i mean have you thought about ways to combat it well i have this conversation with friends of
00:57:54.640 mine who are involved in in the men's advocacy movement and uh i'm not the best person to ask
00:58:01.700 about it because i like you i really do think it is a kind of mental virus i was speaking with my friend
00:58:07.260 steve brulee the other day who does the uh films my my film angle files and uh he thinks we're in a
00:58:13.560 period of mass hysteria um where really there is no way of reaching logically or reasonably people in
00:58:22.000 the grip of of these completely you know irrational um beliefs um you you can't do it through argument
00:58:30.700 uh you you can't do it through reason discussion so what do you do one of my friends think uh thinks
00:58:38.280 that men do it um um through self-sacrifice that he he imagines that a movement in which men uh allow
00:58:48.380 themselves to be harmed by feminist demonstrators and uh you know allow themselves to be uh brutalized
00:58:58.800 in some ways and don't respond with anger respond in the way that they are not expected to respond by
00:59:07.380 uh uh enduring their uh unjust treatment but standing up and articulating it he hopes that
00:59:15.500 that is one of the ways that we'll finally get through so the the whole idea of of a kind of
00:59:20.980 righteous passive resistance of the sort for example that was pioneered by martin luther king for
00:59:29.160 example of course that requires a mainstream culture that is capable of seeing the humanity
00:59:37.380 uh those who are i think a lot of these leftists to me they they look like bolsheviks like when the
00:59:43.660 time would come they would have no no problem being violent and killing people so i guess i feel
00:59:48.760 the time for turning the other cheek might be over it might be time to just say you know what we're
00:59:54.220 going to go build our society over here and then we'll watch that society flourish right these
00:59:58.920 towns and communities that are flourishing that are away from that okay you hate the patriarchy then
01:00:03.380 we'll go over here and you can have that right yeah that was ayn rand's notion of you know the
01:00:09.760 brilliant ones of the society going on strike right and i have another friend of mine that's that's his
01:00:16.280 solution men have to go on strike because if they did this society would collapse immediately within a
01:00:25.100 few hours it wouldn't it wouldn't be functioning and so yeah he he wants a general strike of men
01:00:30.880 now i just don't think that's very likely because i think too many men are too deeply programmed with
01:00:37.160 a sense of commitment to their women their families their societies i don't think they would do it and
01:00:43.500 so yeah i don't know i mean i yeah i i'd like to go to that island or that you know that part of the
01:00:51.880 country where um we could escape to to build our version of the good functioning society i'd love to
01:01:00.240 but i don't know where it is so when you find it let you know and my husband and i would love to come
01:01:07.200 well you'll always be welcome you know by the way i think it's interesting you know identity politics
01:01:12.700 it's become so important and i really think in the west especially amongst europeans because we've lost
01:01:18.120 touch of you know our culture our heritage our roots our society has become so degenerate and
01:01:24.000 meaningless so i think a lot of these young kids are are going to identity politics looking for
01:01:28.720 something to belong to or a tribe or a group would you agree with that sure it's a kind of faith and
01:01:34.420 it offers a lot of what traditional um religious faiths offer not the good things of religious faith
01:01:40.020 the deeper meaning the notion of the loving god who for whom no sin is too great to be forgiven
01:01:45.320 but it does offer you know something to believe in and uh and that's what a lot of young people are
01:01:51.280 are searching for and so it's possible that uh you know something more positive can be offered to them
01:01:57.320 to replace the identity that they're claiming through victim politics maybe they want some kind
01:02:04.000 of brotherhood or sisterhood or family i think maybe that's been missing because we've been so
01:02:08.320 individualistic in western society you know absolutely yeah secular society leaves um a big gap of meaning
01:02:16.000 for a lot of people and of course that's the way in which the left does step in because it offers this
01:02:21.180 you know complete utopia i haven't on earth you know for society that unfortunately you have to
01:02:27.320 create a gulag and then you have to create a bigger and bigger gulag and the utopian community gets
01:02:32.060 smaller and smaller but uh but still that vision seems um it seems unkillable in a way you know no matter
01:02:39.120 how many times these utopian communities are shown to fail and to be miserable um they the idea of it
01:02:47.940 remains alive in people's imaginations well janice tell us about your youtube channel and what you have
01:02:54.600 going on i know you do some talks here and there do you have anything coming up yeah well right now the
01:02:59.260 big thing that i'm working on right now that i would like to plug is that um i am inviting submissions
01:03:04.580 for a book that i'm working on and it's called sons of feminism and it came to me as an idea um as a
01:03:12.300 result of doing my pia mango files on youtube and having lots of young men and and not so young as i
01:03:19.000 said write to me about their experiences and i thought these experiences need to be published this is
01:03:24.520 my one small hope although i'm not a very hopeful person my one small hope for reaching people is if
01:03:31.100 they could read all of these stories of what this supposed movement for equality between the
01:03:36.860 sexes has actually meant for men the so-called privilege oppressors if they could read about
01:03:42.540 their stories uh it might touch people and so um i'm seeking to publish next year and i'm looking for
01:03:50.360 men to write to me with their stories about what it means to grow up in a post-feminist society
01:03:55.780 and how feminism has affected men whether it be at school or in the family or in a school divorce or
01:04:04.220 in the workplace you know whatever the experience whatever the focus is so that's what i'm working
01:04:09.660 on this summer i'm going to continue to make videos my i enjoyed doing my pia mango files and um i'm
01:04:16.880 speaking this uh this july at the international uh conference on men's issues in london england where
01:04:23.840 there will be a gathering of people concerned about the kinds of problems that we've just been
01:04:29.340 discussing well you're doing great work and it's rare to meet female university professors such as
01:04:34.060 yourself so i have a lot of respect for you thank you and i appreciate your time this evening thank you
01:04:38.880 lana it's been great talking to you most logical thinking people can see how academic feminism is
01:04:45.360 connected to the ongoing destruction of western culture and society it's not hard to see what better
01:04:51.800 way to bring down a civilization than destroying the most important relationship the one between men
01:04:57.260 and women leftists are insane and should be treated as such they live in utter denial of nature of
01:05:03.820 reality we can only be equal under the law equality in any other way is impossible but as crazy as lefties
01:05:11.100 are if we don't stop them they'll use forced medications surgery mandatory breeding programs and
01:05:17.960 eventually mass murder in their attempt to make everyone equal what that really means prop up the
01:05:24.020 lowest common denominator and destroy those who excel above and beyond if we let this continue it will
01:05:29.920 not end until there is only one sex one race one culture one uniform thought all across the world
01:05:37.220 all across the board for now they use words but ultimately they will use violence to enforce the
01:05:43.240 uniformity they call equality but it's contrived it's anti-nature and it's a lie so it will not last
01:05:49.860 we're dealing with crazy people who would ultimately genetically engineer and perform lobotomies to make
01:05:55.880 a lion lay with a lamb because hierarchy means inequality women in the west have it the best and we did
01:06:02.640 until forced mass immigration which is now creating a true rape culture and violence against women and we
01:06:08.920 should be loud about that fact many women however are waking up to this reality but it's the job of
01:06:14.580 women like us to inform other women about this reality thanks for listening and supporting red
01:06:19.680 ice your membership helps make what we do possible just like the lefties like to say we have a lot of
01:06:25.460 work to do when it comes to race well we feel the same way find me on facebook twitter google plus and be
01:06:31.860 sure to subscribe to our red ice radio youtube channel we'll talk more later have a good night
01:06:38.920 if you ask any girl from the parish around what pleases her most from her head to her toes she'll say
01:07:03.120 i'm not sure that it's business of yours but i do like to waltz with the log driver for he goes
