00:00:00.000The United Nations is now pushing for the decriminalization of child rape.
00:00:06.820Also, Washington state is passing a law that takes away the rights of parents who disagree with their child's choice to quote unquote transition.
00:00:15.480Also, Bud Light, you probably saw, used Dylan Mulvaney as a spokesperson.
00:00:22.140And there's something really dark and disturbing behind their reasoning to do so.
00:00:27.440All of these stories are very connected.
00:00:30.660And to explain that connection to us today is our friend James Lindsay.
00:00:35.560We've had him on several times before and really no one analyzes what's going on ideologically behind the scenes of these news stories like he does.
00:00:44.360This episode is brought to you by our friends at Good Ranchers.
00:00:57.440So let me explain how this is working.
00:01:05.500So as always, I had a really long conversation with James.
00:01:10.680And actually, what I'm going to play you today is the second half of our conversation.
00:01:15.240So if it kind of seems like we're starting in the middle of our discussion, that's because we are.
00:01:21.560In this part of the conversation that you are going to hear today, we're talking about these news stories.
00:01:26.160Now, in the first part of our conversation that I think we're going to play on Monday, which will actually be the part two, we have a discussion and a semi-debate about Christian nationalism.
00:01:36.500As you probably know, James is an atheist.
00:01:39.400He used to consider himself a leftist, but he has spoken out against critical theory, educated a lot of people about the dangers of social justice and leftism and queer theory and all of that.
00:01:53.100And so we discuss where worldview comes from, how we decide laws, what Christian nationalism would really look like, whether it's a theocracy or whether it's Christians just kind of exercising their faith as they vote and try to influence culture and policy.
00:02:08.380So that's a fascinating discussion and debate.
00:02:27.500So without further ado, here is our friend James Lindsay.
00:02:29.800Speaking of dark and disturbing and also the whole gender thing, I want to talk first about Dylan Mulvaney.
00:02:42.100You and I know I'm kind of late on the story.
00:02:44.480I have been waiting to talk about this whole Bud Light thing until I can have you on because you had such interesting tweets come out of this.
00:02:51.600And one thing that you said, as soon as you said this, I said it to my producer.
00:02:55.120I was like, I want to know what he's talking about.
00:02:57.240You said that there is a reason, a very disturbing.
00:03:00.700This is not your exact language, but a very disturbing, troubling reason why these corporations like Bud Light are hoisting up Dylan Mulvaney.
00:03:10.080And for people who don't know, this is a grown man who pretends to be not just a caricature of a woman, but also like a young girl, like probably 12 years old.
00:04:21.560There's also one that's called the Municipal Equality Index that scores like, you know, public utilities and even city councils and things like that.
00:04:29.700But you have to sign up to be a part of it.
00:04:33.240Some, I don't know, 1,500 corporations in the United States have signed up for the Human Rights Campaign CEI scoring scheme.
00:04:43.500And they give you up to 40 points for having, you know, workplace policies that are, you know, non-discriminatory, et cetera, against LGBTQ.
00:04:53.580Whatever kind of expansive definition of your inclusive workplace that might have.
00:04:58.160And they have 30 points for something else.
00:04:59.600And they have 30 points set aside for – and I forget what the something else is.
00:05:05.540But 30 points set aside for what they call social responsibility and visibility.
00:05:10.920And this is where the Mulvaney situation probably lands is that they are giving up to 30 points for making displays to make trans or queer or even just LGBT, whatever the whole thing, gay or whatever, to make that more visible in society.
00:05:32.460So that's going to be like ad campaigns and stuff.
00:05:34.060And this is why you're going to be likely to see somebody like Dylan Mulvaney being a brand ambassador is likely to raise that score.
00:05:39.420Now, Anheuser-Busch, which is the local parent company of Budweiser, and there's a parent company that's actually headquartered in Belgium that actually owns the whole thing now.
00:05:52.440It's not even an American company and hasn't been for a while.
00:06:04.380There's also a stick, by the way, of social responsibility.
00:06:06.740If you get caught up, you get found out, say, like Chick-fil-A giving money to something that they deem as anti-LGBTQ, they'll take points away no matter what your other stuff is.
00:06:33.360I just saw somebody sent me one this morning, Southwest Airlines is very proud of their 100.
00:06:37.640By the way, all four major carriers in the United States, so Southwest, United, American, and Delta all have 100s.
00:06:43.940American is very centered there in Dallas, is very proud of its 100 all the way back to 2002.
00:06:49.140It got a 100 in the first year and has maintained it every year.
00:06:51.760I heard from an insider last year that to maintain their 100s, the airlines had to give away free tickets to gay activists to fly to Pride events so that the Pride events could be bigger.
00:07:03.760And so we're talking millions of dollars of free airline tickets being given away or reduced price airline tickets to fly activists around to Pride events.
00:07:10.580These are the kinds of tactics that the Human Rights Campaign comes to and says these are the things you have to do in order to raise your score.
00:07:15.860Now, Anheuser-Busch got in trouble a couple of years ago.
00:07:18.600I forget what they did, but it made the gay activists mad.
00:07:21.540And they went to Stonewall and they bought a bunch of Bud Light and they all very visibly poured it out in the street.
00:07:29.480So, of course, they're probably trying to overcompensate right now.
00:07:32.380So Dylan Mulvaney becomes a character who is very visible right now.
00:07:37.180He's being made brand ambassador for like a million things.
00:07:39.560I would – I don't have absolute proof that he's raising their CEI scores, but that's the exact kind of thing that would raise their CEI scores.
00:08:13.680100 days or 365 days it was of girlhood, right?
00:08:17.180And he very obviously acts like a fool that is prepubescent – his interpretation of a prepubescent – like I don't know if it's 12.
00:08:25.380I don't know if it's supposed to be five-year-old girl.
00:08:27.780But at the same time, he tries to portray himself as the reincarnation of Audrey Hepburn.
00:08:31.740So you have this blurring of girlhood and womanhood at the same time as it's actually a 28-year-old gay man who's obviously flamboyant and out of control and loves attention.
00:08:40.340So he's got all the incentives in the world to do this because he's getting crazy attention.
00:08:45.580But there are a lot of operational things.
00:08:48.000Why would it go into the CEI score, which is going to become a proxy, a measurable proxy for their ESG score?
00:08:54.360The S part of their ESG is going to be are you doing these kind of social responsibility things?
00:08:59.380The G score can be determined by do you have these policies?
00:09:02.360Those are both parts of the corporate equality.
00:09:03.980So it becomes a measuring stick that the ESG gods at BlackRock or World Economic Forum or whatever can use to score companies.
00:10:31.380You can get facial surgery and you can be an influencer.
00:10:33.340Like, man, we know that we're in this weird situation where because of TikTok and so on, that like something like 40% of American kids say that the job they want when they grow up is influencer.
00:10:41.220So you see that they know they're reaching to the young people and trying to say that thing you want to be, guess what?
00:11:25.860And the reason I think that it's actually why are the corporations playing along?
00:11:29.740Because the corporations are this kind of epicenter of power is because they are beholden to that score.
00:11:35.760I think that that CEI score has maybe it's not merely Dylan Mulvaney.
00:11:40.140I think that maybe it is true that just they hired this woke, you know, marketing manager who made the worst decision in brand history because she's woke and stupid.
00:11:51.700But it's certainly the case that the CEI score, this corporate equality score, something that corporations chase, that they're willing to lose large amounts of money for, that they're willing to do very strange things like get free airline tickets away in order to maintain.
00:12:04.760That they put out press releases that they celebrate.
00:12:07.020I mean, Southwest has the stupidest image I ever saw of how proud they are of their – it's like all these, like, very, very diverse group of, I guess, gay people of every color doing, like, little hearts with their hands.
00:12:17.720And they're all proud of their – we have a 100 CEI.
00:12:20.920And that's, again, the same thing, though.
00:12:23.240Because which airline are you going to boycott America?
00:13:12.500And basically take the American part off the table.
00:13:14.360I think a lot of people don't understand what you're talking about.
00:13:29.160We've talked about ESG and the Great Reset and things like this on this podcast.
00:13:33.560And obviously you talk about it a lot.
00:13:35.720A lot of people, whenever you see Nike, for example, or Bud Light using someone like Dylan Mulvaney, who – I mean, he does have a lot of followers.
00:13:44.180He does have a lot of people who are praising him.
00:14:18.200Don't they understand that only women buy those sports bras?
00:14:21.200And, you know, I said something like this, too, obviously joking and knowing the reality behind it, knowing why they don't care whether or not I will buy their products.
00:14:29.560But, I mean, they are – when they put their clothing on someone like Dylan Mulvaney, there is no opportunity for a woman to see that model and to see, oh, okay, I can see what that looks like on me.
00:14:41.300You can't because he has a man's body.
00:15:02.880It's not – and I don't think – and you touched on this.
00:15:05.760It's not only because of their CEI scores.
00:15:08.080I think it's also – it's the same reason why a particular show at Fox News decided to run that egregious segment about the child whose parents transitioned her into a boy.
00:15:20.980It's not that they don't know that their audience is conservative.
00:15:24.100It's not that they don't understand that they're talking to people in the heartland who want nothing to do with at least child transition.
00:15:30.640It's actually because these people hate their audience.
00:15:35.460These people hate that part of their customer base and they actually want to change them and they think that they can.
00:15:42.720So, yes, the CEI scores and things like that caring more about that than profits.
00:15:47.340But I also think it is antagonism towards that audience.
00:15:51.320So, it's either it's like, you know what, if you don't support this, I don't even want your money.
00:15:56.460But also, maybe we can, as you said, like force you to comply with it and change you.
00:16:03.900It's not the same age that we used to live in where we can kind of scare these major corporations by saying, well, I'm not going to use your product.
00:16:12.060Because the response that they often give is, good, I don't care.
00:16:16.500I mean, that's what the VP of marketing, who apparently came up with this whole campaign, she kind of doubled down on it and was like, you know, we're moving away from this frat star brand.
00:16:30.420We don't want to be seen as just this, you know, frat bro thing.
00:16:36.300She said, if we do not attract young drinkers to come and drink this brand, there will be no more future for Bud Light.
00:16:53.220Representation is at the heart of its evolution.
00:16:55.440And I would say not just evolution, but revolution.
00:16:58.240Now, I don't even think that this is she's telling the whole truth here because I don't think that she really thinks that this is going to attract a lot of young people.
00:17:08.520And then you have the CEO, though, kind of not apologizing, but an answer that didn't make the right or the left happy, kind of saying.
00:17:58.920It's in his last couple of books explicitly.
00:18:03.060I mean, I could tell you exactly what he says.
00:18:05.260He just recently actually had an interview where he said the most ridiculous thing.
00:18:08.880But what he's saying is, and I'll tell you what he said in just a second, but what he's actually saying is that in what they're doing is that they are trying to impose new values on our society.
00:18:19.100And what they have decided is that the young people are the target for those new values.
00:18:23.400Those values are going to be inclusivity and sustainability.
00:18:25.740I've been banging this drum for about two years now.
00:18:28.100I remember being in my driveway and having the epiphany.
00:18:30.640I'm like, oh, my God, it's sustainability and inclusivity are the two new values of the future.
00:18:34.220And then as soon as you realize that, it's like you read the writing and it's in every page and you feel stupid that you couldn't figure it out before.
00:18:42.980They think that the future, that the children are brainwashed.
00:18:45.340This is what Klaus Schwab says in the book, The Great Narrative for a Better Future, which he published last year.
00:18:50.800He says that they're going to use the ESG and the public-private partnership model to get the governments and the corporations on board with the new value system.
00:19:00.620But if they won't all go along with it, he says, that's one paragraph.
00:19:03.380The next paragraph, he says, if they won't go along with it, that doesn't matter.
00:19:06.700We're going to transform the youth to demand only products, services, workplaces, et cetera, that are on board with the new sustainable and inclusive value system.
00:19:18.180And then he says, third, we're going to use that opportunity to rewrite the social contract to be a sustainable and inclusive future.
00:19:25.980And then this is what he said in the interview just the other day.
00:19:28.800He said that we are rewriting the social contract.
00:19:31.640So part of the purpose of this Dylan Mulvaney thing from the marketing VP that we're hearing from is to force new values, believing that the young people already accept these values and that those are the only values that they're ever going to accept in their lives.
00:20:05.580I don't know what an economy of sharing and caring actually looks like, but I know that that's just updated communism.
00:20:12.660They're going to tell you who you're going to share with, when you're going to share, and how you're going to share for equity.
00:20:17.640And they're going to tell you what you're going to care about for sustainability and inclusion.
00:20:21.360And that's what the economy of caring and sharing is going to be based off of.
00:20:26.020But we're not going to focus on production and consumption.
00:20:28.820So production and consumption of, say, a brand like Bud Light isn't that important anymore.
00:20:32.720It's about pushing these new values on the society under the assumption that the young people have already adopted these values and are incontrovertible in these values.
00:20:41.600Which I think they're in for a rude awakening because I'm looking at the Gen Z.
00:20:45.680And some of them are very into this stuff.
00:20:47.740But, man, a lot of them are mad at it.
00:22:02.480And if it didn't work, you didn't take up the values yourself.
00:22:04.620He sent you to the labor camp for reeducation.
00:22:06.440Or maybe even if it did, it sent you to the labor camp for reeducation.
00:22:09.540Sent you out to work in primitive conditions and in the peasantry, in the fields and in horrible, horrible circumstances for three, four years to reeducate you.
00:22:18.200The goal was to make you into that which you're not.
00:22:22.820And we see this exact same mentality with Dylan Mulvaney.
00:23:11.820You aren't allowed to have any LGBTQ messages on social media or media.
00:23:16.120So, they're not really worried about how Dylan Mulvaney is going to brainwash their youth because they do not allow their youth to have access to that.
00:23:26.600I think I read about this recently until you're 21.
00:23:29.860But even then, even then, they have this basically structure in place where they intimidate the family to the degree that if the family doesn't shame that person out of homosexuality or transgenderism, basically there's trouble.
00:24:36.880I'm actually kind of in favor of this idea.
00:24:38.500I don't think it's going to be the solution, but I think it actually is sending a powerful message to the ESG powers that be that people are pissed off about it.
00:24:50.620I don't mean to be discouraging and disempowering, but they are serving another master, which is something that Americans need to start thinking about very, very seriously.
00:24:58.960Which of our corporations are serving China?
00:25:01.180Which of our governors are serving China instead of serving the United States?
00:25:04.360That doesn't mean that you as an individual can't boycott Nike.
00:25:08.040Like, for example, I won't buy Nike products.
00:25:11.020That's not because I think that they're going to be like, how can we win Ali Stuckey's business back?
00:25:15.280But just that's, you know, just a personal choice.
00:25:17.580So, on an individual level, some people want to integrate their lives into their values.
00:25:25.520Listen, listen, James, we've only got 20 minutes left, and I've got to talk about two big subjects.
00:25:42.680So, first, since we're talking on a global level, I want to talk about, because I haven't touched on this yet, the UN advocating for decriminalizing child rape.
00:25:53.260And I know that you're going to have a fascinating analysis of this, because this is not, as you know, probably better than anyone, happening in a vacuum.
00:26:00.600So, the International Committee of Juris and the United Nations have issued a new report calling for all forms of drug use and sexual activity to be decriminalized globally.
00:26:12.260And this includes sex between adults and minors.
00:26:17.280That should be decriminalized, the UN is saying, so long as the minors, quote, unquote, consent.
00:26:24.200They say that this kind of sexual interaction between a minor doesn't actually specify, from what I saw, the age of the minor.
00:26:31.020Even if it is not legal in a particular country, it still can, the UN says, in fact, be consensual and therefore should be decriminalized.
00:26:42.240They say using the law to punish this kind of behavior and drug use should be the absolute last resort.
00:26:49.360There should be all these other strategies put into place.
00:26:51.460But they don't even say that, yes, this is something that should be prevented or it should be stigmatized or it should be something that we should try to shame people out of or prevent in other ways.
00:27:01.580It just says it should be decriminalized and it could be something that a child chooses to do with an adult.
00:27:10.000So, you know, slippery slope fallacy, we keep hearing from the Christian right.
00:27:15.680Christians have been slippery sloping for the past several years, saying that the sexual revolution is finally and fully going to manifest itself in the not just condoning of, but as all things go with progressivism, the celebration of pedophilia.
00:27:36.420What I've said for a long time is very flimsy consent based morality.
00:27:41.140As long as you consent to something and the definition of consent is always changing, it's always moving, then it is moral.
00:27:51.440So tell me, like, does this surprise you at all that the United Nations pretending to be a safeguard of, you know, children and morality and all of that, basically our world beacon of morality.
00:28:02.660Does it surprise you that they are now saying, oh, pedophiles?
00:28:05.880No, not just pedophiles, but child sex abusers.
00:28:11.940I don't know how much more evidence Americans need that the top priority, a top policy priority for anybody who has the whether it's in Congress, whether it's a president that has the will to do so is to remove the United States from the United Nations and pull all of our funding.
00:28:26.800I don't know how much more evidence we need of this.
00:28:41.680And I think its goal is to actually destroy the West.
00:28:44.080This is part and parcel with what the left has been pushing for for decades.
00:28:48.060And I think, honestly, this is a controversial statement.
00:28:50.480But I actually think in the same way that they accuse America of being structurally racist, that the left is actually structurally pedophilic.
00:28:57.520This idea that consent is up to the minor, that you could have the idea, this concept that what you have in your head probably will use American law because it varies from country to country.
00:29:12.320Some countries' age of consent is 18, like in the United States.
00:29:24.340We'll pause and just use the American context.
00:29:27.220You think it may be, OK, so you have a 16-year-old who's being kind of initiated by an adult into like adulthood-ish sexual themes and topics.
00:29:34.680Can a 16-year-old consent and it's kind of blurry?
00:30:09.480The point is that they've been trying to get rid of this idea of age of consent that somebody under this line is not legally or even maybe psychologically capable of giving legal consent.
00:30:20.540They've been trying to get rid of that idea for a long time.
00:30:22.860The postmodernists, Foucault, Derrida, you name it, all of them, Sartre, they all – he wasn't technically a postmodernist, but he's an existentialist Marxist.
00:30:30.940They were all signing this petition in the 70s, a very famous petition.
00:30:36.180They were signing this to get rid of the age of consent laws in France entirely, which were 15 at the time, to get rid of them entirely.
00:30:42.580This has always been a goal and you hear this argument.
00:30:45.260Every now and then we'll see kind of anti-woke leftists usually get absolutely blown up or even a conservative, Milo Yiannopoulos got this, get absolutely blown up because they come out and try to make the argument that teenagers under certain circumstances can consent.
00:31:01.860But then what we see here is not just that.
00:31:04.080It's the same leftist agenda that no, no, no.
00:31:06.800We're going to talk about the rights of the child and the child is a person, so the person should have absolute human rights and human rights becomes kind of this word that means that you can't question their awful program.
00:31:20.560And so anybody, if they claim that they like it, can consent.
00:31:24.780Well, if you know anything about child grooming, and I've actually talked with some survivors of being groomed as a child, like five years old, six years old, the child virtually always consents because they get kind of like.
00:31:39.460That's quote unquote for people who are listening.
00:31:41.180Yeah, they get with quotes around it because the child is brought in, the groomer, the pedophile is like, oh, don't you want to be, you know, this or that?
00:31:50.500And they get them kind of like very comfortable and they're violating their boundaries one by one.
00:32:03.880And the child from the literal from the survivors that I've talked to gets this psychological impression that they want to please this adult.
00:32:12.340And so they think they are consenting to what's going on when they're actually being grotesquely violated.
00:32:17.760And that means that that standard cannot possibly that the one that the United Nations is putting out cannot possibly be used.
00:32:24.600This is absolute, absolutely abhorrent that they would try to put such a standard out.
00:32:29.760But again, this has been a project of the left openly signing big petitions, doing big drives.
00:32:37.200If you read the literature and queer theory, it's throughout the literature and queer theory.
00:32:40.820The first paper, I think we've talked about this before, Thinking Sex by Gail Rubin, 1984, explicitly says that it's an unfair demonization of what she calls cross-generational sexual relationships.
00:32:56.000And that that has to be done away with because, you know, that criminalizes something that, you know, love is love or some horrific statement.
00:33:18.600So when I say that in the same way that they accuse our society of being structurally racist, that they are actually legitimately structurally pedophilic.
00:33:24.860I wish I would have worn one of my OK Groomer t-shirts for the show.
00:33:29.600Groomerville, this is opening the door.
00:33:32.280I mean, besides the drug use stuff, which is its own topic, this is opening the door to rampant, decriminalized, thus de facto legal grooming where you're going to be able to convince a young person.
00:33:45.240Maybe it's a 14-year-old girl who's decided she's rebelling against her family or whatever, or a 14-year-old boy who's, you know, been groomed by somebody that maybe is a young gay man.
00:33:55.400And it's like, oh, well, or a young gay boy, I guess.
00:33:57.400And we're going to teach you, you know, what it means to be a gay, you know, or something like this.
00:34:02.200A kind of gay grooming that conservatives have been very afraid of would be part and parcel with gay civil rights for a long time.
00:34:09.160I don't think that most gay people are interested in doing this, but we know that some are.
00:34:12.620Milo Yiannopoulos openly talked about it and got blown up because he said that he'd think that it's a good idea a number of years ago.
00:35:08.580There's no limiting principle in a social construction world.
00:35:11.800If gender is a social construct, for example, there is absolutely no place where you can say, well, sex is not.
00:35:19.680Because it's only a political decision that you're making to decide that biology reflects upon that.
00:35:26.500So you're going to end up, if you start with gender as a social construct, feminism, you're going to end up in the trans thing, destroying your feminism.
00:35:32.660If you start to say that, you know, everything to do with sexuality is socially constructed, it's only a matter of time until you're going to say that age is a social construct.
00:35:40.820And we have to start talking about the so-called rights of the child.
00:36:36.380Their brains actually have not developed far enough.
00:36:38.860And no amount of queer theory changes that.
00:36:40.660But it may be the case that what we decide as a society is the line, the age of consent line, is somewhat arbitrary in that we could have a public debate and decide, well, maybe 18 is too young.
00:36:58.140Different societies have decided different things.
00:36:59.760But when you draw that line, that line is representative of an agreement that we're going to say we recognize that before at least some level of psychological development, that you are not meaningfully able to consent to adult activity like sexual activity.
00:37:31.480Reality is such that children can't consent and our society reifies that in socially constructed law so that I can't go chase after my dreams or whatever.
00:37:40.400This is the fundamental problem on the left.
00:37:46.000The United Nations, all in my opinion it's done is kind of taken the mask off and showed us that all of these warnings that people have been issuing, which I can back up with lots of theory and history or whatever, were completely accurate.
00:38:00.280That the socially constructivist left has no limiting principles and eventually all of the perversions that they brag about wanting to participate in in the queer theory literature will get put on the table.
00:38:15.180They'll get put institutionally on the table and that you're going to have an organization like the United Nations doing this.
00:38:19.500In my opinion, the most important takeaway is it's time for the United States to step away from the United Nations and pull all of our funding from it and to no longer participate in, in fact, ideally to condemn this organization as a disaster.
00:38:44.680And, you know, I want to rehash all of that.
00:38:47.840I wish I could talk we could talk more about just the roots of queer theory and how there's a reason why we coincidentally keep seeing these trans activists also caught up in these like grooming schemes and things like that.
00:39:01.580And as you just talked about, it's not happening in a vacuum.
00:39:03.880But rather than just rehash it, since we don't have time, go back and everyone should go back and listen to the conversation that you and I had maybe last summer where we talked about all that.
00:39:12.160That episode was insanely popular because most people just don't know that it's not just a coincidence that these things are happening.
00:39:20.940And you did mention it being the UN being anti-Western.
00:39:23.880And I do just want to point out this idea of age of consent is absent in much of the non-Western world today.
00:39:32.580Not every religion believes that taking a child bride is perverted or pedophilic in any way.
00:39:40.180There are religions that condone that kind of thing.
00:39:43.240Like I would argue because of the biblical mandate to be fruitful and multiply this biblical idea that marriage, the point of marriage is actually procreation.
00:39:53.300There's plenty of people who disagree with that, but I would say biblically that's true, that even though there's no exact so-called age of consent in the Bible because sex is tied to procreation, there is at least a standard that the person, the people getting married cannot be children.
00:40:11.780It's not, you don't take a child bride if the purpose of marriage is procreation and not just based, you know, perverted pedophilic pleasure.
00:40:20.840So I do think that like biblical morality in Western civilization has played a part in the rightful stigmatization of something like pedophilia.
00:40:30.800Okay, before, I know you have something to say, but you can't respond to it because we don't have time.
00:40:35.980We have like, we have like two seconds to talk about this huge story.
00:40:39.060I'll have to talk about it more later because we don't have time to get into it.
00:40:42.140But this goes actually hand in hand with what we're talking about.
00:40:44.380I'm sure you saw the law that is being passed in Washington state that now allows the state to legally hide runaway children from their parents if the parents do not consent to the child's so-called gender transition or abortion.
00:40:58.460This is SB 5599, supporting youth and young adults seeking protected health care services.
00:41:05.560This is going to be signed into law by Governor Jay Inslee.
00:41:08.440Okay, so the pointed question that I have for you and try to answer it in like two minutes if you can, I know, is how does this law, how does this law to connect to the ideology that you're talking about?
00:41:25.120The queer theory idea that children actually need to be liberated from their parents as oppressors and sexually liberated, gender liberated.
00:42:11.460It's not power at the end of the barrel of a gun, but it kind of is because CPS is going to get involved.
00:42:15.800And if you try to resist, this is an absolute imposition.
00:42:18.940This is a direct intentional strike at the idea of parental authority and parental autonomy with their children.
00:42:26.300And the state is saying absolutely that here's this ideology, queer theory.
00:42:31.460We endorse this and not only are you expected socially to affirm it, you are going to participate in the, I'll say, grooming or the ideological brainwashing of your own children or else we're going to step in and take them away.
00:42:48.700I think the queer theory, honestly, is a religion.
00:42:51.140And I've already said why it's agnostic and hermetic.
00:42:54.380I think that this is the state imposing a new state religion on parents.
00:42:59.500But this is what you see in the education literature, by the way, with social emotional learning.
00:43:03.580It's not going to be enough that there's going to be a social emotional learning time at school.
00:43:07.060Every subject is going to be social emotional learning.
00:43:09.060Everything that happens at the school.
00:43:10.720But also they say we're going to get the parents involved to reinforce this.
00:43:13.640So parents are going to have to do social emotional learning activities with their children.
00:43:16.860And then if they don't, eventually what you're going to see under things like the community school models that they're pushing toward, the so-called WSCC model, whole child, what is it, WSCC, whole school, whole community, whole child model that they're trying to push for.
00:43:37.680This model is going to, the goal is to force parents to participate in the ideological brainwashing, so-called affirmation and celebration of their kids.
00:43:46.360And it's exactly the same thing we've been talking about.
00:43:49.220And it is a state imposing a value system that answers fundamental questions about the world and our role in it and that inspires duties of conscience, which in this case is affirmation of a particular ideology and everything that goes with it, which means it meets the First Amendment establishment clause definition of a religion according to the Supreme Court.
00:44:12.580And you can kind of see, you can kind of see why people believe that the only response to a religion like that is a religious response on the other end of it.
00:44:24.160And I know we could talk about, you know, what that looks like and all of that.
