Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey - Ep 652 ｜ The Left’s ‘Don’t Say Groomer’ Policy

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. Happy Monday. So the gender ideologues and the pronoun police 0.97

00:00:07.260 are panicking and they're pushing back against opposition hard. Conservative activist group

00:00:12.400 Moms for Liberty was kicked off Twitter for criticizing a California bill revoking the

00:00:17.760 rights of parents whose children want to transition. Twitter and Reddit are censoring

00:00:21.800 the word groomer to describe adults who talk to children about gender switching and sexuality.

00:00:26.660 What else are we supposed to call them? We'll discuss that. A gender clinic in the UK has

00:00:31.400 shut down because of concerns over child safety. It is now being reported that the FDA is showing

00:00:40.060 that puberty blockers can cause vision loss and brain swelling in kids. We'll cover all this and

00:00:46.240 more craziness today. We'll talk about what's happening, what it means, why we should care,

00:00:51.520 and how we think through these things as Christians. As always, this episode is brought

00:00:57.120 to you by our friends at Good Ranchers. Go to goodranchers.com slash Allie for a discount.

00:01:03.180 That's goodranchers.com slash Allie. All right, quickly before we get into it, you guys wanted

00:01:17.680 me to tell you about the murder mystery party. It was fun. I highly recommend it. Apparently,

00:01:23.900 there are different kinds of murder mystery parties you can do. Ours was 1940s. Apparently,

00:01:28.220 you can do 1980s. You could do 1920s. Maybe you can even do the 19th century. To order it online,

00:01:33.600 it comes with everything that you need, all the instructions and all that. And for those of you who

00:01:38.560 said, who looked at my outfit and you were like, wow, you belong in the 1940s. You're telling me?

00:01:43.380 You think I want to be around here when we're debating whether a man is a woman or a woman is 1.00

00:01:47.760 a man or whether a man could become woman of the year? Yeah, it would be a lot easier to be alive

00:01:53.160 in the 40s. But here I am to try to navigate us through the chaos. Anyway, murder mystery party was

00:01:58.980 really fun. Neither my husband nor I were ended up being the murderer, but it was great. The host did

00:02:05.160 a fantastic job. All right, let me tell you something that we are kind of trying to do

00:02:10.640 with our shows that we're not really implementing today, but we're going to try to moving forward.

00:02:16.860 And so give me your suggestions and your feedback on all of this. We're going to try to start like

00:02:21.100 organizing the show in 10 minute blocks. That might be impossible for me because sometimes a subject

00:02:28.140 just demands like 30 minutes. And you guys know I'm very verbose. I like to be as thorough as possible,

00:02:33.160 give you as much context and analysis as I possibly can. But we're going to try to start breaking up

00:02:39.240 the show a little bit more and then give some like levity in between the subjects. So say we have

00:02:43.860 like A through C blocks and then in between that we'll have an ad break and then maybe like a fun

00:02:49.080 segment just to try to kind of get us out of the depths of the dregs of society, which we are

00:02:58.040 constantly waiting in as we're talking about this crazy stuff. So let me know what you think about

00:03:02.220 that. Yeah, we're just going to try to change it up because why not? We have the freedom and autonomy

00:03:06.940 to do that. Still not letting go of the seriousness of what we're talking about, but bringing in some

00:03:12.080 levity and some laughs in all of it.

00:03:25.660 So this is according to National Review. Twitter suspended the parental rights organization

00:03:30.140 Moms for Liberty on Monday for posting a tweet that accused backers of a California quote

00:03:34.640 gender affirming health care bill of endangering children by facilitating out of state tourism

00:03:40.100 for youth gender transition treatments. Their tweet said that got them suspended.

00:03:45.720 Gender dysphoria is a mental health disorder that is being normalized by predators across the U.S. 1.00

00:03:50.780 California kids are at extreme risk from predatory adults. Now they want to liberate children

00:03:56.180 all over the country. Does a double mastectomy on a preteen sound like progress?

00:04:00.360 Yes. So the social media platform, according to National Review, locked the Moms for Liberty 1.00

00:04:04.740 account in response, claiming that the comment violated its rule against hateful conduct,

00:04:09.480 which forbids the promotion of violence on the basis of gender and gender identity,

00:04:15.580 so-called gender identity. Now, this has happened to me twice for saying that men who identify as

00:04:23.300 women who call themselves women who have declared themselves female are actually men. In other words, 0.92

00:04:29.220 I've been suspended, as many other conservatives have, for telling the truth. Now, last time this

00:04:34.600 happened, I was able to appeal it. This was, I got suspended for complaining about the Fox News

00:04:40.940 segment, which glorified a young child being transitioned from female to male by his parents

00:04:48.520 when he was only a toddler. And I basically said, this is really sad. This is a girl. His parents

00:04:54.100 shouldn't be doing this. Fox News certainly shouldn't be promoting this completely uncritically.

00:04:58.740 Honestly, still can't believe that happened. And yeah, Twitter suspended me for that. And they say,

00:05:04.920 OK, once you delete the tweet, then you'll be suspended for 12 hours. During that time,

00:05:09.980 you can't do anything. I think you can actually like look on Twitter. You can't send any DMs. That's

00:05:14.940 kind of a new feature. Actually, the first time I got suspended, I'm pretty sure I was allowed to send

00:05:18.720 DMs. But it wouldn't let me send like a screenshot of the suspension. But now you can't send DMs.

00:05:26.420 And you can't like retweet. You can't like you basically can't function on Twitter at all. But

00:05:31.440 it doesn't actually show. So if you went to the Moms for Liberty page or my page when I suspended,

00:05:36.080 it doesn't say this account has been suspended. You can't tell it all. You're just kind of basing it

00:05:41.020 on that person's word. So Twitter will tell you, you have to delete this tweet. And then your

00:05:45.900 suspension will start. After that, you can log back in in 12 hours. Well, a lot of people don't

00:05:50.940 want to delete the tweet because they feel like that's kind of compromising. That's acquiescing.

00:05:54.840 That's basically affirming what Twitter is saying, that this is a form of violence. Now,

00:05:59.980 I don't think that that's necessarily true. I think you just kind of have to weigh it and decide.

00:06:04.540 The last time this happened to me, as I said, I appealed it and I actually won that appeal,

00:06:08.760 which was kind of surprising. I actually think it's because a lot of people raised a ruckus

00:06:12.980 about it and said this is ridiculous that she got kicked off Twitter. I think Twitter probably 0.99

00:06:17.480 just didn't want to deal with it. And so they allowed me back in without having to delete the

00:06:22.020 tweet. Thankfully, the tweet is still up. Moms for Liberty is now back on Twitter. I don't know

00:06:27.520 if they deleted the tweet or if they appealed and won, but they are back on Twitter. However,

00:06:33.500 this is still obviously very disturbing that people are getting suspended. People are getting

00:06:39.940 kicked off these platforms for telling the truth. Obviously, this has been going on for a long

00:06:43.860 time. I'm not the first. Moms for Liberty is certainly not the first. Megan Murphy,

00:06:48.580 she is a feminist activist. She's been on this show before. She was kicked off Twitter, 1.00

00:06:53.200 I think, back in 2018. She might have been one of the first people kicked off Twitter for,

00:06:57.680 quote unquote, misgendering someone, calling a man he who identifies as a she. And she has never been

00:07:04.480 allowed back on the platform. So basically, this is Twitter's ministry of truth,

00:07:09.360 telling the truth about someone is violence. So like calling a man he is violence, but mutilating

00:07:15.780 the genitals of minors is not violence, which is exactly what Moms for Liberty was complaining 1.00

00:07:20.580 about, a bill that makes it easier for minors to have their genitals mutilated. So Moms for Liberty 1.00

00:07:26.880 is opposing actual violence. This is what the California bill that they were opposing publicly

00:07:33.540 on Twitter says. This is California Senate Bill 107. Quote, it would or this is according to National

00:07:40.340 Review, their summary of the bill would prohibit California law enforcement agencies from arresting

00:07:46.360 an individual pursuant to an out of state arrest warrant based on another state's law against providing

00:07:51.840 or allowing a child to receive so-called gender affirming health care. It would also outlaw the 0.88

00:07:57.580 extradition of an individual charged with violating another state's law, prohibiting the

00:08:02.660 facilitation of quote, gender affirming health care for children. Notably, the bill would also authorize

00:08:10.000 a court to take temporary jurisdiction because a child has been unable to obtain gender affirming

00:08:17.800 health care. Very important for me to put scare quotes around that. So if a child wanted to travel to

00:08:24.340 California for puberty blockers and they could figure out a way to do that without the help of

00:08:28.840 their parents or that a minor wanted to go there for a surgical castration or a double mastectomy

00:08:35.760 with or without the consent of the parents, the state cannot intervene. Now, the author of this

00:08:42.420 bill, Scott Wiener, yes, that is his name, he said that he wants to make California a sanctuary state

00:08:49.680 for trans kids. Now, as I've said before, there's no such thing as a trans kid. I mean, really, 0.97

00:08:56.280 there's no such thing as a there's there's no such thing as transgender. Really, there is male, 0.99

00:09:02.760 there is female, and then there's confusion. There are people who want to identify as something that

00:09:07.920 is the opposite of what they are. But this idea of a trans kid, it's imaginary. It's not real. 1.00

00:09:14.100 There are parents that push this on their children. There are children who may be genuinely confused.

00:09:18.180 There are children who suffer from gender dysphoria. But this idea that you can actually 1.00

00:09:22.580 transition to another gender, it's not real. This is also the same legislator, Scott Wiener,

00:09:28.480 who decriminalized sex between adults and minors as long as the age gap or allowed the

00:09:35.440 as long as the age gap is 10 years, then the adult did not have to register, does not have to register

00:09:42.840 in the state of California as a sex offender. So, I mean, you're talking 24 and 14, you're talking

00:09:47.840 20 years old and 10 years old, that 20 year old doesn't have to register as a sex offender.

00:09:51.940 Thanks to Scott Wiener, who said that that was the law that made that adult register as a sex

00:09:58.780 offender was anti LGBTQ. That's interesting. He also is responsible for the bill that is now a law

00:10:06.180 that lessened the penalties for knowingly and secretly infecting someone with HIV. So great track

00:10:12.560 record this guy. So he keeps his platform, but those who criticize him don't. I mean,

00:10:18.160 this is the definition of calling evil good and good evil. I mean, how is it difficult for someone

00:10:23.960 to see what is right and what is wrong in all of this? What is good? What is bad? I mean,

00:10:27.800 you just have to have, I guess, a deluded mind like Romans 1 describes. But how could any professing

00:10:33.960 Christian not see what is right and what is wrong in all of this? Monster Liberty also says that they've

00:10:41.340 gotten kicked off PayPal for their views. So an organization of moms that is pushing back 1.00

00:10:46.420 against harmful gender ideology, racial division in schools, unscientific and dangerous mask mandates

00:10:52.580 in schools, they get punished while the people who push this destruction get rewarded. If you want

00:10:58.360 to know who has the power in society, look who gets rewarded for consistently being wrong.

00:11:04.400 Moms for Liberty and other concerned parents take a beating in the press constantly from left-wing

00:11:12.220 activists, from school boards, from teachers unions, Biden's Department of Justice, who refer

00:11:17.320 to concerned parents as domestic terrorists. This group, Moms for Liberty, is often called fascist

00:11:22.620 extremists. Of course, that's projection from the people who actually are those things. Those who oppose

00:11:28.340 critical race theory in schools are called white supremacists. Those who oppose gender ideology are

00:11:33.120 called bigots. Those who oppose mask mandates are called grandma killers. I spoke to a lot of 0.90

00:11:39.140 these people who have been on the receiving end of this kind of ugliness and hate at the Moms for 1.00

00:11:44.980 Liberty's national event. It was their first national event last month in Tampa. And I met a lot of these

00:11:52.480 women. I mean, they're salt of the earth people. They are genuine. They are kind. They are joyful.

00:11:59.280 They simply care about their kids. They want the children of their communities to be free,

00:12:04.500 to have a good education without the poisonous left-wing activism that we see infecting curriculum

00:12:10.100 today, to be able to go to the library without picking out a graphic novel that is basically

00:12:15.860 pornography. These women have had their jobs, their lives, their families, their status in their 1.00

00:12:22.600 communities threatened, and not just women, but also men, also dads, also grandparents. And this is the

00:12:28.440 high cost of being right. This is the high cost of swimming upstream. We talk about being a salmon,

00:12:35.540 swimming upstream, when it's so much easier to just swim downstream with everyone else. It is difficult

00:12:41.400 to swim upstream. And yet these women, this organization, Moms for Liberty, is doing that. 0.99

00:12:48.160 And yet there is a cost to it. And the hope by the bullies in the media, in the left-wing activist

00:12:55.240 class, is that the cost will be too high, that you'll count the cost and say, I don't want to pay

00:12:59.960 that. They know that if you're threatened by the state, if you're deplatformed by corporations,

00:13:05.380 defunded by financial institutions, mocked by your peers, bullied by local officials, maligned by the

00:13:11.840 media, that you'll stop, that you'll fall in line, that you'll go back to being apathetic about your kids,

00:13:16.920 because that's what most people do. But let me tell you what I told Moms for Liberty a few weeks

00:13:24.000 ago. Do not back down. Don't back down. You double down. Because see, these people are afraid.

00:13:31.680 I told you a few weeks ago that Media Matters, that they did this big hit piece on me that actually

00:13:37.140 ended up being a huge compliment. They basically said, I'm a Christian mom and wife, and I think that

00:13:43.400 other women would benefit from being Christians and moms and wives, and that I allow my Christian

00:13:50.200 worldview to characterize everything I think, say, and do. I was like, thank you so much, Media Matters.

00:13:55.740 But one of the things that they said in the article, and I guess a part that they thought was damning,

00:14:00.180 is that I am apparently associated with Moms for Liberty, which I'm actually not officially. I just

00:14:05.660 love them. I support them. And I spoke at one of their events. I think they're great people in a

00:14:10.640 great organization that's done great work. I'm not officially associated with them, but Media Matters

00:14:16.240 clumped us all together because they're afraid. They're afraid that normal moms like me and you

00:14:23.120 are reaching other normal moms, and that we see what they're doing. We see what these activists,

00:14:30.580 what these teachers unions, what these school boards, what these schools, what these politicians are

00:14:34.480 doing. And they're afraid that we're speaking up about it, and that we're doing something about it.

00:14:39.320 They thought that we were going to be, that they were going to be able to recruit our children

00:14:44.820 without us saying anything. They thought that they were going to be able to push gender confusion

00:14:50.120 and racial division and medical tyranny without any of us noticing or speaking up. They thought

00:14:56.260 they could manipulate us and bully us and silence us. And now they're realizing that they can't,

00:15:02.260 and they're terrified. They're terrified that we're making a difference. And to that, I say,

00:15:07.980 good. We haven't even gotten started yet. Indignant moms and dads will be the determining force for 1.00

00:15:15.860 this country. We are done. We are done being complacent. We are done being quiet. Anyone who tries to

00:15:22.340 indoctrinate our kids with godless backwards values, anyone who steps on the rights of parents

00:15:27.640 to seek the best interest of their kids. If anyone tries to do these things and will not get out of the

00:15:36.760 way, we will move them. Teachers unions, corporations, school boards, city councils,

00:15:43.460 state representatives, congressmen, governors, the president, anyone. We will rally and fundraise

00:15:50.880 and make noise until they are stripped of their titles and their power. They answer to us,

00:15:57.140 not the other way around. They, the state, is not our co-parent. Every totalitarian government

00:16:04.800 throughout history has made a priority of driving a wedge between parent and child to recruit children

00:16:10.800 into their armies. Every tyrannical force has sought to obliterate the bonds of the family

00:16:15.440 to replace the parent with the state. We will not let them. We will not let them. We will keep sharing

00:16:22.400 arrows with each other. We will keep linking arms. We will keep standing up with each other.

00:16:26.700 We will keep remembering that courage begets courage, that when you don't have courage,

00:16:31.280 I will let you share some of mine and vice versa. We will keep raising a respectful ruckus. We will

00:16:36.640 keep standing up, speaking up, and pushing back until people realize that we are not going to allow them

00:16:45.580 to recruit, to indoctrinate, to, yes, groom our children. So there are a few things that you can do.

00:16:53.280 You can start a Moms or Liberty chapter in your area. You can join an existing chapter. You can show

00:16:59.920 up in numbers in full force, exercise every bit of liberty that you can in organizing and pushing back

00:17:06.560 against the harmful policies in your school district, at your children's school. You unapologetically push

00:17:12.760 your values in every sphere that you occupy. Progressives do. You think that when progressives are

00:17:20.940 reading kindergartners' books like Jack Not Jackie or encouraging them to play around with pronouns

00:17:27.080 or to reject the gender binary, that they're not pushing their own ideology and pseudo-religious

00:17:33.660 beliefs on your child? They are. Chris Ruffo just published a thread on what Portland public schools

00:17:40.420 are teaching their elementary schoolers, that white colonizers created the idea of male and female. 0.92

00:17:46.180 They're giving graphic anatomy lessons in kindergarten that argue that girls can have penises and boys 0.99

00:17:52.400 can have vaginas. In fifth grade, the students are forced to memorize and recite these maxims about 0.99

00:18:00.500 using correct pronouns and affirming the history of black trans women. And this is not just happening

00:18:06.560 in Portland. It is probably in some form in your school district right now. I've seen similar stories

00:18:12.620 from Texas suburbs, rural schools in Ohio, Virginia, Georgia, Alabama, Florida. No school district is

00:18:20.280 immune. No school is immune. Even private schools. Because progressivism, like cancer, metastasizes and

00:18:26.060 destroys every time and in every way. These progressive activists say that they fear a theocracy,

00:18:32.880 that Christian nationalism is threatening to take over the school system. But they're actually lying.

00:18:37.780 They're not scared of theocracy. They just want their own theocracy. They actually just fear

00:18:42.500 Christianity, which has always posed a threat to totalitarianism. They want to force your children 1.00

00:18:49.880 to worship their God, to recite their secular progressive catechism, to bow down to their altars,

00:18:55.940 to conform themselves to their idols. The world wants to disciple your children. Do not let them.

00:19:03.520 That is what we are here for. To stand in the gap. That is our role as parents. To steward our time

00:19:10.620 and our responsibility as vigilantly, as diligently as possible for the sake of our kids and for the

00:19:18.080 sake of the most vulnerable. What do we always say? Children are always the unconsenting subjects of

00:19:24.260 progressive social experiments. This is another form of child sacrifice taking on a new form. We've seen

00:19:31.420 child sacrifice throughout history. What has been the role of Christians always throughout history

00:19:35.880 to stop it. That's been the role of God's people. And we will not stop now. All right. Before we get

00:19:43.420 into this debate about groomers and the censorship of groomers and talking about, okay, what should we

00:19:50.060 actually call them to try to skirt this ban? Let me pause. So another word for people who want to drive

00:20:06.160 a wedge between children and those who protect them, their parents and guardians, the people who

00:20:12.080 have their best interest and their well-being at heart. Groomers. That's another word for them.

00:20:19.220 There's really no better word. Groomers. And when we say groomers, go back and listen to my recent

00:20:24.720 conversation with James Lindsay where we discussed this and why this word is appropriate to what we're

00:20:28.840 talking about. We're not necessarily using that word for the purpose that it is typically

00:20:35.280 used for. We're not necessarily talking about adults who are grooming children for direct physical

00:20:44.500 sexual assault, although that is part of it. And like I would argue that taking a child to

00:20:50.320 a drag show where you have a man who is dressed in fake boobs and fishnets and a thong twerking for 0.97

00:20:58.580 money, I would say that that is a form of sexual abuse. Maybe the child is not being physically 0.92

00:21:04.360 touched. Maybe you could argue that it is psychological abuse, but it is absolutely

00:21:09.040 abusive. I always think about that verse and it's in Song of Solomon. It's probably in the

00:21:15.800 first chapter of Song of Solomon where it says, do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.

00:21:23.660 And I think that in context that is also talking about lust, that is also talking about physical

00:21:29.180 desire. We know that there are some serious psychological, lifelong psychological and

00:21:34.100 sexual repercussions of introducing a child to pornography, to sexual subjects, to sexual

00:21:41.440 interactions at an early age. That can set them up for all kinds of failure and yes, also make them

00:21:50.160 vulnerable prey. So it's a very serious thing when we're talking about the dangers of drag queen story 0.99

00:21:55.620 hour, when we're talking about sending kids to pride parade where there is always nudity, where there's

00:22:01.060 always kink introducing kids to subjects that have to do with each other's genitalia, that have to do 0.62

00:22:07.880 with sexuality, especially when it's not the parents that are introducing these things to their kids in

00:22:13.160 a way that is like age appropriate and is actually safe for them. When it's adults without the consent

00:22:18.920 in the presence of the parent introducing kids to these things, that is especially disturbing. And yes,

00:22:24.080 that is a form of grooming. It is at the very least ideological grooming, if not sexual grooming. It

00:22:33.480 is, I often call it gender grooming. You are introducing kids to an idea that they were not naturally thinking

00:22:39.900 about. I don't care what you say. A three-year-old girl is not thinking, hmm, maybe I'm, you know, maybe

00:22:46.720 it's possible to go by they. Maybe it's possible to switch my gender. They're still trying to figure out, 0.70

00:22:52.080 yes, in some ways, what and who they are, what and who everyone else is. Kids are constantly putting

00:22:58.100 things into categories. They're constantly labeling things. Like, you notice that if you're around your

00:23:02.480 own kids or other kids. Like, you notice they're constantly trying to make their world smaller. And

00:23:07.660 that makes sense for their sense of safety and their own sense of identity and place in the world. The

00:23:13.940 world is really new to them. It's really big to them. So if they can make it smaller, if they can order

00:23:19.040 things so that things make more sense, so that things are more predictable, so that things

00:23:24.060 are clear to them, then that helps them function, right? Like, that helps them interact with other

00:23:30.420 people. That helps them feel protected. That helps them feel safe. That's not only normal for young

00:23:36.460 kids. That's really good. That's really healthy. And so when you throw that off, especially when it

00:23:41.300 comes to something so fundamental, like gender, and when you throw that child into chaos, that's going 0.86

00:23:50.080 to cause a lot of harm. Not to mention, it's just not true. It's just not true that a man can become a

00:23:56.420 woman and vice versa. And you could be leading them down a path of really serious, not just psychological

00:24:03.100 harm, but physical harm when you are talking about puberty blockers and transitioning and all of that 0.89

00:24:10.080 stuff. And so this word groomer has become more prevalent on social media, especially when it comes

00:24:16.740 to the videos that Libs of TikTok posts on her Twitter, teacher after teacher, adult after adult,

00:24:22.480 even parent after parent talking about their teaching young children about switching genders. And so rather

00:24:30.020 than taking the normal approach of saying, yeah, this is really bad and like adults shouldn't be talking

00:24:36.580 to kids about this. Reddit has just banned the word groomer. And then Twitter has jumped onto that.

00:24:43.440 They suspended Jenna Ellis for calling an adult who was doing this, a groomer, and James Lindsay as

00:24:51.380 well. I think they're both back on Twitter now, but they are clearly punishing people once again for

00:24:56.460 telling the truth. The Daily Dot reported on this. The subreddit, Our Political Compass Memes,

00:25:02.600 has a moderating team that informed its half a million subscribers that the platform had decided

00:25:08.000 that the term groomer was officially hate speech. I've seen people call it an anti-LGBTQ slur,

00:25:14.360 which is just really interesting. Like, it's just interesting that you see it as that because

00:25:19.740 I'm not calling all people who identify as gay or lesbian or bisexual groomers or predators or 0.97

00:25:27.420 pedophiles. That's not what I'm saying. I haven't seen anyone say that. I haven't seen anyone say 0.97

00:25:31.920 that everyone who is confused about their gender or everyone who is attracted to the same sex is

00:25:39.240 trying to make the younger generation feel that way or identify it as that. I'm not saying that.

00:25:46.740 And so I think it's really interesting. I think it's really interesting that they are saying that

00:25:50.840 this is banned because it is an anti-LGBTQ slur. It's kind of like the whole monkey pox scandal

00:26:00.060 where they were saying, oh, it's homophobic to say that, OK, maybe men should stop going to gay 0.99

00:26:06.380 orgies for a little bit. So they stopped passing monkey pox around. That same state legislator we 0.99

00:26:11.780 were talking about earlier, Scott Wiener, who he was just it's all so muddled. He, of course,

00:26:20.540 was on board on on board with vaccine and mask mandates. But he is now saying that telling gay 0.71

00:26:27.840 men not to have sex with a bunch of like random partners in a week is just not feasible and it's 0.82

00:26:32.940 not a public health strategy. It's also crazy. I just think it's a tell, though, if you're saying

00:26:37.040 that it is homophobic to say that you can't go to gay orgies, you're basically saying that gay 0.99

00:26:40.800 orgies is so integral to homosexuality that it can't be extricated. Very interesting. So once again, 1.00

00:26:46.880 we have been placed in this Orwellian dystopia, we've been placed right in the middle of 1984,

00:26:53.240 where accurate language is being censored. It's being memory hold. It is being policed. Policing

00:27:01.380 language plays a very important and can be a very destructive role in shaping the culture. And when

00:27:11.320 you control the cultural megaphones like Reddit and Twitter, and you can limit the words that people

00:27:16.400 use, then of course, you control the culture, you control public opinion. Because policing language

00:27:22.040 eventually, as we see in 1984, limits people's range of thought. So it is a form of thought

00:27:28.220 policing. But also, ironically, minimizing the language that people can use to describe violative

00:27:35.080 acts is a tactic of groomers. That's one reason sexual predators target children. They know that 0.99

00:27:40.960 children, very young children, often don't have the words to describe what is being done to them

00:27:45.740 and why it's wrong. And here we are with them saying that we can't actually say that the grooming that

00:27:52.280 they're doing is grooming. So if we want to get around the ban, what should we what should we call

00:27:58.440 them instead? What nickname should we have? So I asked you guys on Twitter, some of the suggestions

00:28:04.600 were better than others, I will say. So there are a few top contenders, and we can maybe we can have a vote.

00:28:11.000 And maybe I'll put the poll on Twitter, or I'll put the poll on Instagram, and we can have a vote

00:28:15.320 for what what we call them. And maybe we can just kind of shorten it to an acronym. So it will make

00:28:22.040 it harder for it to be for it to be censored. So some options that you guys came up with instead of

00:28:28.900 groomer pronoun predator, rainbow recruiter, that's a good one. Kid creepers. Someone said you should just 1.00

00:28:36.660 say, where you take your dog to get a haircut. That's a little wordy, but I get what you're going

00:28:42.200 for. And then we've got some acronyms that you guys came up for or came up with PAGS, predatory adult

00:28:48.060 groomers, PERV, this is clever, PERV, P-E-R-V, people eager to remove virtue, LOL. And then someone 0.53

00:28:56.000 came up with A4, adults after adolescent affirmation. And you know, that's actually like a very

00:29:01.380 profound point. I think it is this perverse and weird desire from a lot of these adults,

00:29:10.780 like to get the affirmation and attention of adolescents. And they should probably dig a

00:29:16.220 little bit deeper to ask themselves why that is. So let me know what your favorite is. Pronoun

00:29:21.000 predator, rainbow recruiter, kid creeper. But kid creeper kind of seems to denote that it's the kids

00:29:26.480 that's doing the creeping, which it's really adults. And so then you've got PAGS, predatory adult

00:29:30.920 groomers, PERV, people eager to remove virtue, A4, adults after adolescent affirmation. So tell me

00:29:35.960 what you think that we should be using. Or if you have another suggestion, let me know and I'll put a

00:29:41.160 poll up on Instagram. All right, I want to talk about the real life harm of this ideology and how it is

00:29:58.520 hurting children, not just psychologically, but physically. So this was reported by the Daily Wire.

00:30:04.340 FDA officials warn of brain swelling and vision loss in minors using puberty blockers. Huh? Who

00:30:10.580 would have thought that disrupting the natural process of a human being's body, of an adolescent's

00:30:16.020 body, a child's body, and its most formative years would have consequences? Now, we know that it has

00:30:20.940 consequences in a lot of ways. You're talking, in some cases, permanent sterility. You are talking

00:30:26.680 about basically chemical castration in some ways, especially when it's, when it leads to cross-sex

00:30:31.800 hormones. In boys, I mean, you are talking about long-term irreversible damage, even though the

00:30:37.840 Biden administration has put out misinformation saying that puberty blockers are totally irreversible.

00:30:44.380 No, it's not. You're actually, go listen to my episode with Genevieve Gluck. We'll link it in the

00:30:50.420 description. We'll link that and the episode with James Lindsay. Both of those episodes are doing,

00:30:54.820 like, insanely. I mean, they're doing insanely well, especially on the listening side, because

00:31:00.600 so many people are sharing it because the revelations that both those guests shared when it comes to the

00:31:04.160 subject are just truly mind-blowing. Go listen to them if you haven't already. But the sick part of

00:31:10.140 this is that puberty blockers really does trap a person, like, in a permanent, in a permanent place

00:31:17.140 of adolescence. And we're not just talking about your body, but in some ways in your mind too. You know

00:31:21.700 that brain development requires puberty? And when you stop that, you are actually hurting the person's

00:31:28.360 ability to develop mentally? And then again, you just have to ask yourself, like, for what purpose?

00:31:33.480 Who benefits? Who benefits from locking a child in adolescence, both mentally and physically?

00:31:40.040 Maybe you should ask yourself that. So I'm glad the FDA is at least sounding the alarms

00:31:44.880 about other things, other consequences of puberty blockers. So here's what the Daily Wire says.

00:31:50.940 FDA officials said there is a plausible association between using puberty blockers and pseudotumor

00:31:55.640 cerebri, a pseudotumor that displays symptoms similar to brain tumors. This association was

00:32:02.600 identified in six young girls between the ages of five and 12. Five patients were undergoing treatment

00:32:08.300 for central precocious puberty. So this is not gender transition, although these are the same 0.76

00:32:17.160 treatments used for gender transition. These particular patients were actually on puberty

00:32:22.720 blockers because they started puberty too early. Sometimes that can happen, particularly in girls.

00:32:28.860 So these five patients were undergoing treatment for central precocious puberty, a condition which

00:32:33.100 causes puberty to appear in girls before eight years old and boys before nine years old.

00:32:37.000 But one of them, one of them actually, according to this report, was for transgender care. So we are

00:32:45.140 an interesting phrasing there, but we are talking about between the ages of five and 12, one of them

00:32:52.880 had puberty blockers for so-called transgender care. Other effects of the treatment were visual

00:32:57.420 disturbances, headaches, vomiting, high blood pressure, brain swelling, and neuropathy, eye movement,

00:33:02.660 paralysis. The FDA has also said that the cases are clinically serious and determined that a warning

00:33:08.100 should be added to all puberty blocking products approved for pediatric patients. The Florida

00:33:13.780 Department of Health, which is very based, based on the currently available evidence encouraging

00:33:18.140 mastectomy, ovariectomy, uterine extirpation, penile disablement, tracheal shave, the prescription of

00:33:27.180 hormones, which are out of line with the genetic makeup of the child, or puberty blockers are all

00:33:32.360 clinical practices which run an unacceptably high risk of doing harm. This is all true. This is going

00:33:38.620 to be like the many, many, many scientific treatments, medical treatments that we have been told are totally

00:33:45.680 fine, that are totally healthy, that are great and should be given to children indiscriminately.

00:33:51.420 We are going to find out more and more the destruction that they have brought. We talked

00:33:56.940 last week with Dr. Bhattacharya, an epidemiologist from Stanford, not just about the failed COVID

00:34:02.780 response, but also the scandal surrounding Alzheimer's treatment and also the kind of not

00:34:10.460 great science behind prescribing SSRIs for depression. Go listen to that conversation if you

00:34:18.040 haven't already, but so often we are told the science is settled and that you're crazy for

00:34:22.740 questioning any of the treatments, any of the prescriptions, any of the routine procedures

00:34:28.400 that we're told are perfectly fine and are told are effective treatments for different kinds of

00:34:39.600 maladies. You're not supposed to question that because you're not supposed to question the science

00:34:43.600 and then come to find out the science was wrong. The scientists were wrong because human beings are

00:34:49.360 fallible and therefore scientific discovery is often fallible. And so we are seeing real life harm

00:34:55.940 when it comes to the kids that are being treated with this. So much so that a gender clinic was actually

00:35:02.000 shut down in the UK. Tavistock Children's Transgender Clinic has been shut because of a damning report

00:35:11.980 that warned that the gender clinic was not safe. And this is according to the Daily Mail. In the end,

00:35:19.340 it was NHS England that ordered the Tavistock Trust to close down its gender identity clinic for children

00:35:25.040 in the wake of a damning review by an eminent pediatrician. But its far-reaching decision yesterday

00:35:30.580 would never have been taken but for the brave voices of a few individuals who spoke out against

00:35:35.240 the controversial center. Patients, parents, and even the Tavistock's own staff turned whistleblower,

00:35:42.000 some putting their careers in jeopardy, to warn that vulnerable children unsure about their gender

00:35:48.460 were being put at risk by being prescribed powerful drugs to stop the onset of puberty. The first to raise

00:35:55.340 concerns in 2005 was Sue Evans, a nurse of the Tavistock's Gender Identity Development Service

00:36:00.640 in North London. She was worried that teens were being assessed too quickly and that treatment plans

00:36:05.200 were being influenced by transgender rights groups. So really, it was political. These kids,

00:36:11.580 they're being told, hey, this is reversible. This is no big deal. So they go on these puberty blockers,

00:36:16.860 they go on the cross-sex hormones, they get the surgeries. If you've read the stories of

00:36:20.720 detransitioners, it's awful what has been done to their bodies, what has been done to their sexual 1.00

00:36:25.980 function, what has been done to their ability to bear children. Of course, they're often going to

00:36:30.740 change their mind. Of course they are because their children and their frontal lobe hasn't been

00:36:35.280 developed yet. And the adults in their lives who are allowing them to do this, I mean, it's a

00:36:39.200 dereliction of duty. It's a tragedy. I mean, the level of depravity in the kids who are being

00:36:44.900 sacrificed on the altar of it, it's just too much to bear. And that is why we have the responsibility

00:36:51.080 to speak up about this. Anyone who says it's not empathetic or it's not loving or it's not gentle

00:36:56.340 enough or it's not kind to say that a man can't become a woman or a woman can't become a man or

00:37:02.680 that there's no such thing as a trans kid, they don't understand the harm that is being placed on

00:37:08.380 these kids. I think it is actually the most empathetic and the most loving thing that you can do

00:37:12.640 to speak out about this. I mean, there's a million other stories I wanted to get to today

00:37:16.860 about the real life harm that this is causing on vulnerable women, whether it's in children

00:37:21.340 or whether it's in, yes, in children, but also whether it's in women's prisons, whether it's in

00:37:28.080 domestic abuse shelters, whether it's in locker rooms and bathrooms and athletic teams.

00:37:33.040 Unfortunately, this is happening at a consistent rate across the country. Men who identify as women

00:37:38.880 are preying upon vulnerable girls and women, if you care about children, if you care about the most

00:37:45.860 vulnerable, you should care about this and you should have the courage to speak up about it.

00:37:49.880 Yes, you might get deplatformed. Yes, you might get bullied. Yes, someone might even say that you're

00:37:54.340 not a good Christian or you're not doing the right thing or you're not being loving enough. But look,

00:37:59.860 the God who is love made us male and female. And therefore, the most loving thing that we can do

00:38:04.760 is agree with him. All right, I tweeted something to this effect over the weekend. And I think it's

00:38:20.240 just a good reminder that God is a God of order. 1 Corinthians 14.33 says that for God is not a God

00:38:28.380 of confusion, but of peace. I think that that enlightens us as to what is good and what is

00:38:36.580 evil, what is right and what is wrong, and often what side we should be on on a particular issue.

00:38:42.760 Not just when it comes to gender, but really when it comes to anything. What we see throughout

00:38:46.580 Scripture that God is a God of processes. He is a God of order. He is a God of hierarchies.

00:38:52.980 He is a God that cares about male, female. We see that in the very beginning. He is a God who

00:38:58.360 cares about the structure of the family. We see that in the very beginning and throughout Scripture.

00:39:03.620 He is a God that cares about the structure of the state. He is a God that cares about our

00:39:08.200 relationships, how the world is ordered. He is a God of boundaries, of definitions, of parameters,

00:39:13.980 and of clarity. And he understands that if we follow these things, we will have greater peace,

00:39:19.900 greater fulfillment, greater happiness, greater wisdom than if we follow our own way. Our own way is chaos.

00:39:26.780 Chaos and lawlessness are always described as evil. Satan is described as an agent of chaos and

00:39:35.880 lawlessness throughout Scripture. If you look at the book of Titus, you see how much God cares about

00:39:40.540 order. The order of the family, the order of the church. We see throughout Scripture that he cares

00:39:45.860 about even the order of the state as it pertains to its authority versus the church's authority versus

00:39:54.340 the state's authority. And then, on the other hand, we see that lawlessness and chaos and anarchy are

00:40:02.120 evil, are something to be opposed, something that God opposes and will ultimately defeat.

00:40:07.440 Matthew 7, 22 through 23, Jesus says,

00:40:10.420 On that day, many will say to me, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and cast out demons in

00:40:14.740 your name and do many mighty works in your name? And then will I declare to them, I never knew you.

00:40:19.200 Depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. Romans 6, 19. For just as you once presented your members

00:40:25.880 as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as

00:40:31.620 slaves to righteousness, leading to sanctification. So sanctification, becoming holier through the power

00:40:37.620 of the Holy Spirit is actually the opposite of lawlessness from the chaos that we see characterizing

00:40:42.480 the world. Titus 2, 12 through 14, Jesus Christ, who gave himself up for us to redeem us from all

00:40:48.900 lawlessness and to purify for himself of people for his own possession, who are zealous for good works.

00:40:56.000 Satan is an agent of chaos. God is a God of order and peace. Therefore, as his ambassadors, as his

00:41:03.560 followers, we should also be ambassadors and agents of clarity, of courage, of peace.

00:41:11.820 We should not be confused about what male is, what female is. We should not be confused about the

00:41:16.600 definition of marriage. We should not be confused about the roles of men and women. We should not

00:41:21.100 be confused about the roles and the order of the church, about the authority of the church versus

00:41:25.500 the family versus the state. God is a God of order. He is also a God of love. And so we know that his

00:41:31.560 order, his laws, his rules, his boundaries, his parameters are for our good. And the most loving thing

00:41:38.480 that we can do is to represent God's good order to the world in every sphere that we occupy, come what

00:41:44.640 may. We know that everyone who desires to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.

00:41:52.120 And that is true whether you live in America or whether you live in the Middle East. The persecution

00:41:56.580 might be different, but it's coming. It's already here. And we are called to stand firm in all of it.

00:42:01.980 And by the power of the Holy Spirit, we can do that. All right. That's all I got for today.

00:42:06.640 We will see you back here tomorrow.
