00:06:09.060And if you've watched the video or read the essay, you'd know that it's all about how women entering academia and these academic institutions has really impacted the culture of these institutions.0.58
00:06:19.460and as they argue has resulted in, as I've just said, a lack of free speech, more cancel culture
00:06:26.680and deprioritization of emotional safety over the truth. So Helen Andrews makes a similar argument
00:06:33.280in her essay. She argues that as women have become the majority in institutions like universities,1.00
00:06:39.540law schools, HR departments and media organizations, these institutions have fundamentally changed.
00:06:45.560The traits she associates with men, direct conflict, risk-taking, valuing truth over feelings, have been replaced by what she calls feminine norms, consensus building, empathy, emotional safety, and conflict avoidance.
00:07:00.340And the data does show something interesting here.
00:07:04.140A 2022 poll of college students found that 85% of women wouldn't allow a speaker who said transgender people have a mental disorder to speak on campus.
00:07:14.120compared to only 58 percent of men similar gaps showed up for controversial speakers on topics
00:07:20.260like black lives matter election fraud and abortion andrews isn't just saying women are
00:07:25.420different she's saying that when women reach a critical mass in an organization the entire0.99
00:07:30.600culture flips institutions change when there's when they're dominated by feminine ideas uh same1.00
00:07:38.620in the law. I mean, in France, believe it or not, 70%, 72% of judges in France are women. And of1.00
00:07:46.940course, a woman could be a judge, but sometimes there's a tilt because there is a feminine1.00
00:07:52.280approach to the world, different than the masculine approach. Feelings perhaps are more0.98
00:07:58.880valuable than hard, cold precedent. And so you see lenient sentences. We see this in Canada too. Of
00:08:04.620course there are woke left-wing male judges but when feminization takes over an institution it
00:08:11.060changes how it thinks how it reacts i think it's the same as the difference between how a mom and
00:08:16.540a dad react to the same thing from a child how they criticize a child or defend a child how they
00:08:21.460accept something or don't there's a there's a reason moms and dads are different and i think
00:08:27.300that speaks to the whole concept of the hr department the human resources department
00:08:33.360um this is a video that went absolutely viral um a couple years ago and take a look at and and you
00:08:41.980tell me why do you think this went so viral and why do you think it elicited such a reaction take
00:08:46.980a look gen z boston mini gen z boston mini ebts and a bomb ebts and a ball five foot three in
00:08:54.880attitude five foot three in the attitude secret product in the trench secret product in the0.59
00:08:59.920Well, I think that was the total apex of the feminization of the workplace.1.00
00:09:11.940Those young women there are in charge of hiring and firing for a company.1.00
00:09:16.840I don't know which company, but probably hiring and firing accountants or scientists or people who were doing a harder and harder.1.00
00:09:26.780I mean, more objective activity than doing, quote, HR.0.55
00:09:32.920And the total feminization of that workplace, I think, would make it a very difficult place for a certain kind of male worker to be.
00:09:43.280And I think that it shows the success of the field of studies, gender studies, vegetarian studies, peace studies, all these degrees that when I was in school, I thought, huh, they're going to be unemployable.
00:09:55.080where on earth would they get jobs? Joke's on me. They all got jobs working in HR. They became
00:10:00.000the deciders. They were the people who decided if you were de-platformed in your company.
00:10:06.360Let me give you an example. Since we're speaking about Elon Musk, I don't know if you remember
00:10:10.020this case. More than a decade ago, Matt Taylor, the rocket scientist, literally, who wore a shirt
00:10:17.160with not naked women, but with suggestively dressed women on it. It was a gift from a female0.71
00:10:23.220colleague by the way this is the shirt he wore when he had an astounding rocket science
00:10:29.700achievement they landed a satellite on i think it was a meteor or something millions of miles away
00:10:36.860i forget the exact achievement but it was astonishing historic and because he had a
00:10:42.500shirt that hr didn't like they made him have do this groveling apology take a look the shirt i
00:10:48.740war this week. I made a big mistake, and I offended many people, and I'm very sorry about this.
00:11:02.060Do you see the difference between an HR department and an actual rocket scientist? One's very
00:11:08.440feminine, concerned about hurt feelings and following the rules, and there was a complaint,
00:11:14.680and you're making someone uncomfortable those are feminine values versus i just launched landed a1.00
00:11:20.640satellite on a piece of rock a million miles away and we saw which one dominated there do
00:11:26.700and do you remember speaking of videos of what life was like at twitter before elon musk took0.91
00:11:33.860it over well you don't have to remember uh the majority of staff at twitter were women hr style
00:11:39.640women not only running twitter but reviewing the content reviewing the tweets that were made around
00:11:45.100the world to make sure that they didn't hurt feelings here's a day in the life working at
00:11:50.620twitter uh in its hr centric world before elon musk came and took over take a look welcome to a day in
00:11:58.380my life as a twitter employee so this past week went to sf for the first time at a twitter office
00:12:04.780badged in honestly took a moment to just soak everything in what a blessing also started my
00:12:11.620morning off with an iced matcha from the perch then i had a meeting so quickly scheduled one
00:12:17.460of these little pod rooms which were so cool they're literally noise canceling took my meeting
00:12:22.780got ready for a bunch look how delicious this food looks oh my goodness i was so overwhelmed
00:12:28.800then made my way down to this log cabin area i don't know what this is but it was really cool
00:12:35.240played some foosball with my friends to kind of unwind a bit um also found this really cool
00:12:42.240meditation room that i thought was super neat um i didn't do any yoga but they have this yoga room
00:12:49.760if you are a yogi so also thought that was really cool um had a couple more meetings in the afternoon
00:12:56.080had a ton of projects that we needed to knock out say hi to my teammates um went to the went to the
00:13:02.240library to kind of get some more work done obviously had to have our afternoon coffee so
00:13:08.140made some espresso and then before leaving for the day had some red wine um that's on tap went
00:13:15.240up to the rooftop and just honestly enjoyed the beautiful weather so awesome trip elon musk saw
00:13:23.300that video and he terminated 80 of the company and it immediately got better the i don't think
00:13:29.280he fired a single engineer or someone who was actually doing something he just sacked the folks
00:13:35.560who um you know had a day at the spa or whatever they were doing so who is elon musk i mean just
00:13:43.520stop and think about what he's into he's into cars rockets digging tunnels fast internet uh and by
00:13:51.020the way, he's also a globally ranked video game player. I honestly don't know how he has all the
00:13:56.160time. And now he's a trillionaire. And all those things I just mentioned, rockets, cars, those are
00:14:04.040all masculine traits. I'm not saying women can't do those as well, but they're quite masculine.
00:14:09.880And, you know, here's a video of him inviting a date to watch rocket ships. You know, he says,
00:14:14.680I don't usually do this, but, you know, I'd love to see you tomorrow. Can we meet for breakfast?
00:14:21.020and we had breakfast and then at the end of breakfast he said will you come and have lunch
00:14:25.180with me so then we went for lunch and then he said will you come to dinner and then i remember
00:14:31.100one evening he said um would would you like to come back to my hotel room so we can look at
00:14:37.020rocket videos i thought okay yeah i'll come back and um and we did get into his hotel room and he
00:14:45.340did just show me rocket video i think more than the particular activities that he chooses is how
00:14:50.700he chooses and how he decides what he wants to do and what he believes in, even if no one else in
00:14:58.180the world sees it, even if everyone else tells him he can't do it, he just does it anyways at a
00:15:05.400stubbornness in the extreme. He's obviously very intelligent. He's a polymath. He's interested in
00:15:11.020very many things. He really drills down into every aspect of a company, masters it. But I think the
00:15:17.820chief characteristic is that he does what people say you cannot do it that way. Now, he's obviously
00:15:23.560still a team player. There's about 150,000 employees amongst all of his projects, most of
00:15:30.280them with Tesla. But he is used to hearing the word no and ignoring it. And at this point in
00:15:37.040time, it would be foolish to bet against him. So how opposite is that? How opposite is he
00:15:43.560To the world that Zoe Booth from Quillette described, feelings, safety, nurturing, social cohesion, can't we all get along?
00:28:26.360and the Parliamentary Protective Service,
00:28:28.300which are the ones that actually made the decision affecting Campaign Life Coalition.
00:28:35.520Ultimately, the judge did end up finding that he wasn't going to strike down any provision of the rules for the use of Parliament Hill
00:28:43.220because they weren't a party to the case, that is the speakers or the commission.
00:28:48.960This was despite the parties actually both agreeing to go forward with the case,
00:28:53.540And neither of them, the PPS didn't take the position that they needed someone else to be a party to defend the case.
00:29:00.340But nevertheless, what the court did find was that the PPS's interpretation of the rules was unreasonable and their decision infringed the rights of Campaign Life Coalition.
00:29:11.200okay so if the rules are still there and the police force is still there and really all this
00:29:16.120was is the cops being told you went too far um i suppose this is just a a caution to them
00:29:23.880to be more open-minded and more tolerant of of expression in the future i mean it a win is a win
00:29:30.680and it's much better than a loss but it sounds like um the the same deciders are in place and
00:29:37.520the same rules are in place it's just sort of a hope that they'll be better what are your thoughts
00:29:42.120on that well the the positive that comes out of this case is how the rules have to be interpreted
00:29:48.300going forward so the the rules ban three things uh the images that show excessive blood or violence
00:29:56.680uh promotion of hatred and obscenity and the last two as you know are criminal offenses
00:30:02.620uh now strangely enough parliament the parliamentary protective service didn't rely on the first one
00:30:08.540so it's been floating in the background of this case but it really wasn't there for the court to
00:30:13.200uh to weigh in on uh rather the the pps argued that the signs promoted hatred
00:30:20.560and all they yeah and all they did by the way just in case the viewers are unaware is they just
00:30:25.580showed uh abortion victim photography uh so they they the pps argued they promoted hatred and that
00:30:31.620they were obscene uh and again for people listening uh obscenity has a a strict definition
00:30:38.300in the criminal code it requires a depiction of sex along with some other element like criminality
00:30:43.960or horror something that makes it particularly uh awful uh and obviously that's not what these
00:30:50.080images depicted uh but the pps took the position that they the rules weren't relying on the criminal
00:30:57.280code definition, they just relied on a sort of dictionary definition of obscenity, something
00:31:02.480gross or unpleasant, and the judge rejected that, finding that that was too subjective of a standard
00:31:10.200by which to limit freedom of expression. And so this is good, because it means that those0.57
00:31:16.540provisions, which have a fine place in the rules for the use of Parliament Hill, right, they're
00:31:21.560criminal offenses, so it's fine for Parliament to prohibit them as well, but they have to actually
00:31:25.440be interpreted strictly and narrowly so they can't be used in this broad way against uh groups
00:31:30.780like campaign life coalition or or potentially other groups uh but what the decision does leave
00:31:35.960um for i guess a future day is what to do with that prohibition on violence and blood right
00:31:42.680very interesting now who did the government use as their lawyers did they hire private sector
00:31:47.520lawyers or did they use department of justice lawyers i'm just curious who they put uh on the
00:31:51.580other side to argue for the censorship yeah they hired uh private lawyers well listen congratulations
00:31:58.460on a win and i say even if it's a small win even if you move things forward one millimeter that's
00:32:04.160enormously different morally than losing than being pushed back a centimeter or a mile so
00:32:09.540congratulations to you guys at the justice center do you think that the government will appeal this
00:32:14.800have they ran out of time i mean um i'd be surprised if they appealed it but who knows
