The media is blaming libs of TikTok, Republican lawmakers, and other conservatives for the death
00:00:07.560
of a student in Oklahoma who identified as non-binary. We have all of the details on that
00:00:14.900
and the wicked, evil narrative that the media is spinning, and we will debunk it on today's
00:00:21.280
episode. Also, Google's AI technology will not show any positive depictions or even historically
00:00:29.100
accurate depictions of white people. We will go through some examples and tell you why that
00:00:36.100
really, really matters. We've got all that and more on today's episode of Relatable.
00:00:51.780
Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. Happy Thursday. Hope everyone has had a wonderful week so far.
00:00:56.820
All right, no announcements. Let's just go ahead and get right into everything that we have to talk
00:01:01.360
about today because it is a lot. All right, we're going to start with this horrible story coming out
00:01:07.740
of Oklahoma. A student who identifies as transgender or non-binary, some reports are saying, died after
00:01:15.780
a school fight. And the media, of course, as they do, jumped to the convenient conclusion, which is
00:01:24.480
that this child was killed because of her stated identity. And she was killed because of her stated
00:01:32.540
identity, because of nasty, mean conservatives and Republican politicians like the governor of
00:01:38.560
Oklahoma, Kevin Stitt, being anti-transgender and anti-gender fluidity. It is because of conservatives'
00:01:48.600
rampage against transgenderism that this young person has died. And so now we need federal authorities to
00:01:58.100
look into this case. And people need to realize that not calling someone by their proper pronouns
00:02:04.820
or preferred pronouns and being against transgenderism in any way is actually killing people. Of course,
00:02:11.220
that's the moral extortion that we have been hearing for years now, that if you don't use someone's
00:02:17.560
preferred pronoun, so if you don't call a man she or a woman he or call someone they them, then they are
00:02:26.920
not only going to be bullied and perhaps murdered, but they are probably going to commit suicide. If you
00:02:32.960
don't allow your son to go through chemical castration, if you don't allow your daughter to
00:02:38.000
get a double mastectomy when she is 16 years old, then they're going to commit suicide. It is
0.79
00:02:43.220
the most evil form of manipulation that you can think of. There is no data, there are no statistics
00:02:49.740
that back up this assertion. It is literally just a form of moral extortion. It's the worst form of
00:02:58.720
what I call empathy bullying or empathy shaming, that if you are a good empathetic person, then you would
00:03:05.240
just affirm what this individual thinks about themselves. And if you don't, they will die,
00:03:11.840
and blood will be on your hands. It is sick. It is disgusting. It is not true. There is no causal
00:03:18.620
relationship between those things. And yet we hear incessantly that there is that relationship.
00:03:24.920
And so now they are hoisting up a young person in the state of Oklahoma who recently died as their
00:03:31.540
new mascot. Again, this is what they do, not just with this, but also when it comes to, for example,
00:03:37.760
a black person who is shot by the police. Rather than actually having compassion for what happened,
00:03:44.420
they immediately use this person as a political mallet to bludgeon their enemies. Like there's no
00:03:54.180
actual love or empathy or compassion when it comes to how progressives react to stories like this.
00:04:00.400
It's not about what the victim endured. It is actually about how that victim can be used,
00:04:07.780
exploited, and objectified to gain power and to punish their political enemies. That's exactly
00:04:16.860
what's going on in this horrible story about this young person. As a teenager, was a teenager,
00:04:23.540
16 years old, named Dagny Benedict. Now, this person, because she said that she is non-binary,
00:04:31.980
which of course is not in actual reality, but it's a stated identity that someone can say that they
00:04:38.620
have, she had been going by the name NEX, N-E-X. We, of course, will not refer to this person by
00:04:48.100
they, them pronouns because, again, that is an impossibility. This person is a female created
0.90
00:04:54.980
in the image of God. And so we will be referring to her as a girl because that is, of course,
00:05:02.800
what she was. So this is what has been reported by the New York Post, Daily Mail, Independent.
00:05:08.940
The summary is coming from those sources. She died earlier this month after she and another student
00:05:15.420
were severely beaten by three older girls inside a school bathroom, according to reports.
00:05:23.940
The fight occurred on February 7th at Owasso High School in suburban Tulsa. While her family's
00:05:30.900
obituary used the female pronouns, her grandmother, who it seems raised her, Sue Benedict, told the
00:05:37.900
independent that the teen identified as non-binary. An official school update said that students were
00:05:46.560
in the restroom for less than two minutes and the physical altercation was broken up by other students
00:05:52.080
who were present in the restroom at the time, along with a staff member who was supervising outside of
00:05:58.160
the restroom. The school did not call the police or an ambulance, but Benedict and the others were
00:06:04.220
examined by a nurse as required by school policy. They didn't think that they needed to go to the
00:06:10.540
emergency room. So I know I read a report that just said that they were severely beaten. We don't
00:06:16.540
actually know that. And actually, reports indicate now that the beating, of course, wrong, was not severe.
00:06:24.420
It wasn't severe enough to cause serious injury that would have led Dagny or any of the other girls
00:06:32.380
involved to go to the ER. But the school called Ms. Benedict about the fight, informed her that her
0.99
00:06:39.260
daughter would be suspended for two weeks. Dagny's mother took her to the hospital after school,
00:06:47.120
called police to report the fight. So I guess her mother slash grandmother decided that, okay,
00:06:54.980
she actually does seem to have some injuries. Let's just go get her examined. So the Daily Mail had
00:07:01.240
released text messages that Benedict, this girl, had sent to her family later that day after her
00:07:10.180
grandparents had taken her to the ER. She texted this family member, I got jumped at school three
00:07:18.580
on one, had to go to the ER. And then the family member, we don't know who this family member is,
00:07:23.220
said, are you okay? She said, all good, just scrapes and bruises. Got a shot in the butt for my pain.
00:07:28.360
But if I'm still dizzy and nauseous in the morning, I might have a concussion. The family
00:07:33.600
member says, why did they jump you? What did the school do about it? They had been bullying me and
00:07:38.040
my friend, Dagny said, and I got tired of it. So I poured some water on them and all three came after
00:07:43.760
me. School did not report it to police and is probably getting sued. Then they lost the girls
00:07:49.000
after they made me and my friends separate. And one of my friends had to be escorted to his bus
00:07:54.860
because they couldn't find them. So what is being reported, as I said, by media outlets is that she
00:08:03.560
was beaten to death, that she was severely beaten to death in the back in the bathroom because of her
1.00
00:08:09.160
non-binary identity. There is no indication based on the evidence that we have that that happened at
00:08:16.060
all. So again, the media running to jumping to conclusions in order to make a political point,
00:08:23.520
it is like the least compassionate thing that you could do for this young person who is apparently
00:08:28.120
being bullied and who died from a cause that we don't know about. Maybe we should care about that.
00:08:36.900
And if journalists were worth their salt, maybe they would be looking into that a little bit more.
00:08:41.660
All right. So Benedict was released from the hospital that same day. She was assessed by the
00:08:58.660
ER. They didn't think that there was anything worth keeping her for. As you heard in those texts,
00:09:06.840
she just had some scrapes and bruises, maybe was a little bit sore, but then she went home.
00:09:12.720
Her grandmother told the independent that her child then collapsed at home the following day
00:09:19.680
on February 8th and then tragically died. And that's all we knew really for a couple days about
00:09:26.700
this story. And that is why the media then ran with this narrative, this concocted narrative that
00:09:33.840
she died because of the bullying and that the bullying was because of her stated identity.
00:09:40.300
So let me give you some examples of how the how the media framed this. Here's what the independent
00:09:47.040
reported. Oklahoma banned trans students from bathrooms. Now a bullied student is dead after a
00:09:54.400
fight. So you see how they just make two statements that are kind of true. And then they allow the reader
00:10:03.640
to make the deductions that the journalist wants them to make. And then you've got the Daily Beast
00:10:11.200
that said a dead non-binary teen and a school boss's cruel transphobia. Of course, trying to blame this
00:10:20.320
teen's tragic death on so-called transphobia. The advocate said this Oklahoma transgender student dies
00:10:27.920
after allegedly assaulted by students at the school. And then you'll see in the article itself,
00:10:37.480
it talks about libs of TikTok and it talks about conservative commentators having what they would
00:10:43.520
consider anti-trans views. And they don't have to explicitly make that causal relationship clear.
00:10:51.980
They are just hoping that people will start lumping the two things together and that, again, people will
00:10:58.360
draw those conclusions on their own. Here is another headline that I've seen going around. I don't know where
00:11:06.840
it originated. This is resetera.com. It's also on Reddit. The Los Angeles Blade has something
00:11:14.860
similar. Libs of TikTok targeted a district. Then a non-binary student was killed on campus. So trying
00:11:25.280
to make you think that because libs of TikTok discusses what teachers and public schools are saying,
00:11:34.760
either in the classroom or on TikTok, about things like so-called gender identity and sexuality,
00:11:40.500
because she exposes some of the corrupt and sexually perverse curriculum that is in these schools,
1.00
00:11:47.740
that she is the one to blame for this person's death. So that's what the media is going with,
00:11:55.860
again, without any evidence and actually with lots of evidence to the contrary, because we have just
00:12:02.880
heard that local police released autopsy reports showing that Benedict did not die.
00:12:10.000
as a result of trauma. Now, they're still waiting on the toxicology reports to determine the cause of
00:12:17.500
death, and the cause of the confrontation still remains under investigation. We really don't have
00:12:23.200
any information about the girls who allegedly ganged up on her, but really it was a fight. That's what
1.00
00:12:29.920
it sounds like, even from this girl's own words. It sounds like they got in a fight in the bathroom,
00:12:36.820
and is it right for anyone to be bullied? Absolutely not. I hate bullying. I think parents need to get a
00:12:44.220
hold of their children who are bullying other kids. That is a huge problem. School districts need to take it
00:12:50.500
way more seriously. There should be very serious consequences for bullying. No matter what someone is being
00:12:57.540
bullied for, it is wrong, and we should be vehemently against it, and we should be doing everything that
00:13:03.980
we possibly can to stop bullying and to help victims of bullying, absolutely. So perhaps she was really
00:13:12.160
being bullied, but it sounds like they got in a fight. Things obviously didn't go well. We don't know
00:13:18.440
anything else about these girls who were in the fight with her. What I do know is that they were,
00:13:25.200
these three girls were serving in school suspension at the time. The teacher let them all go to the
00:13:31.540
bathroom at the same time. They were not supposed to be able to go to the bathroom all at the same
00:13:35.940
time, and that's when this fight happened. So that's really all we know. Of course, because they're
00:13:43.180
minors, we don't know their identity, and we don't really know any other details besides that.
00:13:50.320
A GoFundMe was set up on behalf of Sue Benedict, and she referred to her granddaughter as her real
00:13:58.460
name and as a girl. She called her Dagny, Dagny Benedict, and she called her daughter, sister,
00:14:08.080
cousin, aunt. Sue Benedict then posted an update apologizing that the fundraiser did not use their
00:14:13.860
name correctly or using Dagny's preferred pronouns. She also promised to donate money to other
00:14:20.740
transgender-identifying children. So what does this tell us? That she had to post this apology
0.58
00:14:26.760
on the GoFundMe that she was being bullied by the trans activist for using her granddaughter's
00:14:33.340
actual name and for using her actual pronouns and referring to her in a female way. So here's the
00:14:40.140
poor grandmother who is mourning the loss of her grandchild that she had adopted. Here's what she
00:14:47.840
has to say to the trans bullies out there. We are sorry for not using their name correctly, and as
00:14:55.240
parents, we were still learning the correct forms, of course, because it is so unbelievably unnatural to
00:15:01.760
call an individual they them. And also very unnatural and very heartbreaking to call the daughter that
00:15:08.400
you love, the granddaughter that you love, something other than what you know they are. She says,
00:15:15.460
please do not judge us as Next was judged. Please do not bully us for our ignorance on the subject.
00:15:21.280
So how sad is this grandmother has to plead to the left-wing trans activist not to bully her after her
00:15:29.400
child had just died. Next gave us that respect, and we are sorry in our grief that we overlooked them.
00:15:34.860
I lost my child. The headstone will have the correct name of their choice. That's got to hurt, man.
00:15:39.980
You know they don't want to do that. You know that they do not want to put they them in next on her
00:15:46.400
gravestone. The rest of monies, the rest of monies will go to other children dealing with the right to
00:15:53.660
be who they feel they are. In next Benedict's name, God bless. You know, we have no idea what was going on
00:15:59.580
in this home. I assumed that there was probably some trauma there if she had to be adopted by a
00:16:04.120
grandparent. So often there is trauma in the lives of these young people who start to say that they
00:16:10.520
are identifying as the other sex or identifying as quote-unquote non-binary. And so I'm sure there
0.99
00:16:17.140
was a lot in this young person's past, and maybe they had been chronically bullied. Again, I think
00:16:21.920
we can have a lot of compassion for this young person. And we, as Christians, should have way more
00:16:27.220
compassion than these trans activists do. Because again, they don't have compassion at all for them.
1.00
00:16:33.080
They are just using this young person, this dead young person, as a mascot. And they are going so
00:16:40.040
far as to bully the grieving grandmother into using the correct pronouns. So now that the media has run
00:16:49.620
with this erroneous narrative about the death of this child being because of conservatives and because
00:17:00.180
of Republican legislation that is protecting the privacy and the dignity of girls in locker rooms
00:17:07.140
and in bathrooms, people like Libs of TikTok are getting very serious death threats. Again, Libs of TikTok
00:17:15.260
just posts videos of progressives saying what they think about child sexuality and child's gender
00:17:22.920
transition. And she calls it out. And then people can do what they will with that information.
00:17:27.620
So yes, some teachers have gotten fired because of that. Some school districts have been held accountable
00:17:33.720
because they are showing pornography in the name of inclusion and gender affirmation to middle school
00:17:41.820
and high school and elementary school, even students. She is just exposing what is happening in public schools
00:17:49.580
in particular, but also just among people on TikTok. And she shows us their ideas for what they are.
00:17:57.640
She doesn't misconstrue their messages. She literally just says, here's the curriculum.
00:18:02.680
Here are the books. Here's what this person is saying. Here's what this teacher is teaching
00:18:07.680
in the classroom, according to the things that they're posting on TikTok and Reddit, whatever.
00:18:12.940
And for that, she has been dubbed a stochastic terrorist. And the media has tried for a very
00:18:20.040
long time to link her to bomb threats and threats of violence at these schools without actually
00:18:28.820
fleshing out that connection at all. Again, they do that thing where they just say, Libs of TikTok
00:18:33.980
called out this teacher at this school. And then this school also allegedly had some kind of threat.
00:18:41.560
We have no idea if those things are connected. Of course, she has never, ever called for violence.
00:18:47.320
She has never encouraged violence. She has spoken out against violence. But she is allowed to say,
00:18:55.000
this is what's happening at schools. And parents, you deserve to know what's happening in your school
00:18:58.780
district, what your taxpayer dollars are funding, what your tax dollars are funding, and you deserve to
00:19:07.020
have a voice. And for that, the left absolutely hates her. They link every piece of murder and
00:19:13.280
violence that they can to her. And they are trying their darndest to ensure that she is actually
00:19:18.740
murdered. That's what's going on here. So I'll give you some examples of that in just a second.
00:19:22.820
Okay, according to The Independent, Libs of TikTok's quote unquote anti-LGBTQ post have been linked
00:19:42.520
to nearly three dozen threats made towards schools, libraries, hospitals, and businesses across 16 states,
00:19:49.780
according to a recent NBC News investigation. And of course, that's not actually true. It's not
00:19:56.880
actually true that she is encouraging these things or motivating these things, inspiring
00:20:01.460
these things at all. Unfortunately, there are crazy individuals out there who, when they hear a piece
00:20:07.540
of information, I don't know, it might make them angry and they threaten violence, which of course is
00:20:13.160
wrong in all these situations. Like it shouldn't even need to be said. But threatening violence,
00:20:19.020
inflicting violence in any way in retaliation to what's going on at these schools and in these
00:20:25.120
hospitals that are chopping off the breasts of healthy young women who think they're the opposite
1.00
00:20:30.620
sex, that is not the answer. That of course is not the answer. But the media likes to play this game
00:20:36.380
where they shine a light on how horrific the response is to something when what is actually
00:20:43.320
going on is also horrifying. What is going on in the name of gender affirmation to young children is
00:20:50.100
actually horrifying. Freedom Oklahoma, an LGBTQ advocacy group, blamed Oklahoman lawmakers
00:20:59.560
and libs of TikTok for promoting bigotry. They said, we want to be clear whether Nex died as a
00:21:06.320
direct result of injury sustained in the brutal hate motivated attack at school or not Nex's death
00:21:11.060
is a result of being the target of physical and emotional harm because of who Nex was. Of course,
00:21:15.980
they don't know that. Again, it's the same thing that the left does with race. If a black person is
00:21:22.720
harmed in any way or has any kind of negative interaction with a white person, it is automatically assumed it is
00:21:28.400
because of that person's race. And you know what? It's really sad that any bullying ever goes on.
00:21:35.480
But violent bullying unfortunately happens on a daily basis in this country. I see plenty of very
00:21:43.080
disturbing videos that are posted by a variety of news accounts of fights in bathrooms and buses
00:21:51.120
between children. And I never see those reported on on a national scale. And certainly if it's like a
00:21:58.320
brown or a black person that's beating up a white person, you never hear that reported nationally.
00:22:03.960
That's never seen as some kind of symptom of a systemic problem. That's just an isolated local
00:22:10.620
event. But when we see something like this, when they've got a representative of the oppressed,
00:22:17.620
as the left would say, they have to make this a national story. It has to be a national reckoning
00:22:23.580
just so they can point fingers to everyone who is against the idea that a man can become a woman
00:22:29.840
and vice versa. Because we are against the idea that children can't transition to the opposite sex,
00:22:37.640
we are to blame for all of this violence and whatever consequences we reap for being against
00:22:44.140
that craziness. All of these consequences are justified. So that is why Libs of TikTok is
0.96
00:22:52.740
receiving the threats that she is. And she is she is retaliating. She is responding to a lot of the
00:23:00.780
defamation that is going on that is going on right now. Okay, on TikTok, Rebecca Jones, who is that fake
0.99
00:23:08.880
whistleblower from Florida, you'll remember she falsely accused Ron DeSantis of like faking COVID
00:23:16.640
numbers to try to make it seem like COVID wasn't as bad in Florida or something like that. It ended up
00:23:22.380
that she was lying and she's an unstable person. But she told her followers on TikTok, you know what to do
00:23:31.320
after she called Libs of TikTok a terrorist. She and Libs of TikTok said she's inciting her followers to
00:23:37.780
come after me and physically assault me. Here's a Twitter user that said, when seriously, when are you
00:23:45.400
just going to let go give up and not exist anymore? There is another activist who said you will be
00:23:56.140
murdered in your sleep for all of your evil deeds, you won't even have time to scream, you will think
00:24:01.380
it's a nightmare. But you can't wake up for it. There is another Twitter account who said I'm
00:24:08.120
assassinating Haya Rechik, first chance I get LMAO. And I could go on and on. She receives all kinds of
00:24:18.880
threats like this. And you know what, I really respect her for not backing down. First of all, when she is
00:24:25.760
defamed by the media, her lawyers send a request for retraction and they fact check the erroneous
00:24:34.380
claims that are being made. And sometimes those outlets do respond and they make the retractions.
00:24:42.280
And also when she sees an individual, even if they are an anonymous account threatening her or telling
00:24:50.300
her to kill herself, she employs the investigative skills of her followers and then I'm sure some
0.97
00:24:59.320
professionals as well to find out who those people are who are sending her threats and where they work
00:25:06.280
and where they live. And you know what, I totally respect her and support her for doing that. If you are
00:25:12.300
going to send death threats to someone and you are going to tell someone to kill themselves, then you have
00:25:18.320
surrendered your right to anonymity. And you should expect someone to expose exactly who you are and
00:25:26.580
where you work and you should expect that your place of employment doesn't want to carry the liability
00:25:33.160
of having someone who sends those kinds of threats. And you should expect that you are going to get fired
00:25:40.440
for that and that you're going to have a hard time getting a job again. And if you don't want to endure
00:25:45.280
those consequences, then don't encourage someone to commit suicide and don't threaten to assault someone
00:25:52.540
or kill someone online. I know that's a crazy concept, but maybe don't do that and you won't be exposed.
00:26:01.540
But you're not going to use some kind of screen name that you think covers up your identity to
00:26:10.100
to hide. So I appreciate that Libs of TikTok is willing to take the time to identify the people
00:26:21.260
who are sending her these kinds of threats because it's really, really ugly. These are very disturbed
00:26:27.540
individuals. And I appreciate that she reports these things to the FBI too, just so they have a log of the
00:26:36.300
kind of people that seem to have like a very high propensity, not just towards instability, but also
00:26:43.640
actual physical violence. And so I would just think twice. I would think twice before sending this kind
00:26:50.860
of threat and good for Chaya for making sure that all of her haters are held to account when they
00:26:58.520
actually send these threats of violence. Nancy Pelosi, for some reason, decided to weigh in on this.
1.00
00:27:04.680
It was important, I guess, for her to give her commentary. She says,
00:27:08.980
Next, Benedict's death from a brutal assault in their high school bathroom is outrageous and
00:27:14.080
heartbreaking. The anti-trans fervor fueled by extreme Republicans across the country is having
00:27:18.780
deadly consequences for our children. We must stand up against anti-trans hate. Again, of course,
00:27:25.920
none of this is true. The only true thing that we know is that she died. She didn't die from the
00:27:31.380
trauma. The autopsy has already shown us that. So she didn't die from the bullying. Bullying is always
00:27:38.540
wrong. She didn't die from that. That means that she didn't die because of her stated identity. We
00:27:44.700
have no idea if she was even bullied because of her stated identity. And even if she had been bullied
00:27:51.500
because of her stated identity, we have no connection to libs of TikTok, any conservative,
00:27:56.500
or any Republican legislation. And by the way, the Republican legislation is still correct.
00:28:01.460
And it is still correct that you are either male or female. And that is determined at the point of
0.82
00:28:06.840
conception. And that cannot change. And the attempt to change that is dangerous. It's dangerous to a
00:28:13.440
person's spiritual health, their emotional health, their mental health, and of course, also their
00:28:18.460
physical health. It is a lie to say that it is healthier to affirm someone's delusion about their
00:28:23.100
gender than it is to just affirm reality. The press secretary also weighed in. Every young person
00:28:29.700
deserves to feel safe and supported at school. Our hearts are with Next Benedict's family, their
00:28:33.380
friends, and their entire school community in the wake of this horrific tragedy. Again, just want to
00:28:38.480
make the point that something only becomes the national story to Democrats when it helps them advance
00:28:45.900
their political agenda. If a white person is killed or harmed by a Black person, that just completely
0.54
00:28:54.400
escapes their compassion, escapes their notice at all. If a trans person, for example, like the young
00:29:06.480
woman who shot up the Christian school in Nashville just a few months ago, if they are the perpetrator,
00:29:13.460
completely flies under the radar. It is only when they can advance their political agenda to push
00:29:22.460
more depravity that they care about these stories and it becomes national news. Katie Couric, former
0.79
00:29:29.500
journalist, had a ridiculous take. This is so upsetting. Oklahoma banned trans students from bathrooms.
00:29:35.060
Now a bullied student is dead. Now, listen, banned trans students from bathrooms. Now a bullied student is
00:29:42.140
dead. She was in, this young woman was in the bathroom. She was in the bathroom. She was allowed
0.98
00:29:47.600
to go to the bathroom. What do you mean they banned trans students from bathrooms? This is another thing
00:29:51.860
that they like to do. Ban trans students from sports. Ban trans students from bathrooms. No, trans kids
1.00
00:29:58.060
who think that they are trans can still play sports. Kids who think that they're trans can still go to the
00:30:02.540
bathroom. They just have to go to the bathroom according to the sex that they actually are.
1.00
00:30:07.100
That's not crazy. That's not radical. John Pavlovitz, I think he blocked me on Twitter
00:30:13.540
a long time ago. He calls himself a progressive pastor and author. Of course, he's not actually
00:30:19.560
a Christian in any sense of the word because he very explicitly does not believe in the basic
00:30:24.140
doctrines of Christianity. But he says conservative Christianity kills. Conservative Christianity kills.
00:30:32.240
I mean, these people are so insanely evil. I mean, this is basically trans Floyd. This is the same
1.00
00:30:39.420
thing that happened after George Floyd died. I mean, the body isn't even cold yet before they use a
00:30:46.800
tragic story like this. And it is tragic, no matter what angle you're coming from, to bludgeon their
00:30:53.160
political enemies so incredibly shamelessly. It is disgusting. It is evil. It is wicked. Do not fall
00:31:02.000
for this most just egregious form of empathy bullying and empathy shaming. It is really,
00:31:11.220
really ugly. I guarantee more will come out about this in the coming days that will completely contradict
00:31:18.040
the disgusting narrative that we've heard from the media. The media don't care, though. They don't
00:31:23.340
care. They know that. It's not like, oh, this was just a simple mistake. They worked with the facts
00:31:29.020
that they had. They came to the logical conclusions based on the information that was available to them.
00:31:35.020
That's not what happened. They do this on purpose. They do this to stir up anger. They do this to stir
00:31:41.700
up strife. They do this to try to launch arrows at their enemies. They do this on purpose. They might
00:31:49.420
maybe quietly issue a retraction or a correction in the coming days just so they can say that they did,
00:31:58.540
but they don't care. They purposely run with false headlines because the point is not to tell the truth.
00:32:07.180
The point is to make a point. The point is to make their argument. The point is to win elections.
00:32:13.080
The point is for them to gain power. The point is to try to get as many people as possible to hate
00:32:19.440
conservatives and to hate Christians and to hate our position and to link our position with dangerous,
00:32:26.400
violent extremism to try to make the things that we say illegal or to try to make us so scared
00:32:34.380
to associate with conservatism or conservative Christianity because we're so scared of being
00:32:40.660
called a fascist or so scared of being called a Christian nationalist. All of these ridiculous
00:32:45.120
labels that have no correlation whatsoever to the things that we're actually saying or the things that
00:32:50.980
we actually believe, they want to subdue us into silence by saying blood is on your hands if you
00:32:57.000
disagree with us and you just can't buy it. You just can't buy it. The fact of the matter is that we
00:33:02.580
are on the right side. We are objectively, without nuance, without any possible caveat, we are on the
00:33:13.720
right side. The biological reality of male and female is final. Okay? There's no logical or scientific
00:33:24.540
or empathetic argument against it. It is wrong to try to identify a person by the opposite sex. It is even
0.99
00:33:33.980
more wrong to try to affirm gender deception in a young person. It is wrong to socially transition
00:33:41.660
a young person. It is wrong to call a young person who is confused or deceived about their gender by they,
00:33:48.060
them, or by pronouns that don't correspond with their sex. That is immoral. That is egregious. That is evil.
00:33:53.840
It leads them down a path of further confusion. It also leads them down a path of irreversibly
00:34:01.020
harming their bodies. You know, the beautiful young woman that we talked to, Daisy Strongen,
00:34:08.660
on this couch just a few months ago, she was a part of the PragerU documentary. And when she was a young
00:34:14.640
person, late teens, she started to transition. So she got a double mastectomy. She went on hormones.
0.90
00:34:21.360
And thank the Lord. She listened to various voices. And through the power of the Holy Spirit,
00:34:27.580
she realized how wrong she was. And she de-transitioned, as it's called. And so she
00:34:33.300
embraced who she is as a woman. She also became a Christian during that time. Her testimony is just
00:34:39.560
really incredible. And now she is a mom of two. And she just recently had her baby, her daughter.
00:34:46.040
And she posted a picture online of the first time that she fed her baby. And her caption,
00:34:54.220
I'll paraphrase it, said, these are not tears of joy. These are tears of sadness, because this is
00:35:00.560
the first time that I fed my baby. And she's feeding her baby a little bottle of formula. And I,
00:35:06.520
she says, didn't even get to attempt to breastfeed her because of the decision that I made when I
0.99
00:35:13.380
was mentally unwell and unstable and decided to have my breasts chopped off. And now I never
00:35:22.360
even get to attempt to feed my child. And the pain and anxiety and regret that she feels, I don't even
00:35:28.940
think can be quantified. I don't even think any of us can understand and imagine the pain that she
00:35:35.280
is feeling right now, postpartum, knowing that her body, every instinct in her wants to breastfeed
00:35:41.900
her child. And she can't because the adults in her life failed her. And they didn't stop her by just
00:35:49.780
telling her the truth and helping her embrace who she is and to reconcile her confused and deceived
00:35:55.300
mind with the reality of her body. Because in the name of love and empathy, she had so many people
00:36:02.680
telling her, yeah, sure, you're a boy. Yeah, sure, you can cut off your breasts. Yeah, sure, you can take
1.00
00:36:07.180
testosterone. They have robbed her. They have robbed her of the ability to nourish her child. And if you
00:36:14.740
have not been there, like if you have not been a mom who has nursed her babies, you can't know. You cannot
00:36:21.020
know the pain that she is feeling. I promise you it is immense. It is greater than any of us can probably
00:36:27.860
even think up. And that is because in the name of affirmation and empathy, people allowed her to
00:36:37.600
mutilate her body. So I just want to affirm to you that no matter how much they try to morally extort you
00:36:45.000
or manipulate you into affirmation and to say that blood is on your hands because you are against this
00:36:52.080
crazy gender bending stuff. No, we are right. We are 100% correct. We are on the right side,
0.82
00:37:00.540
the righteous side, the biblical side, and yes, the actually loving side. Don't get caught up in this
00:37:08.800
emotional manipulation, whether it comes to racial issues or gender issues or any of these things that
00:37:15.680
they try to use as flashpoints and try to use as bludgeons to coerce you into their position. Don't
00:37:24.540
do it. Stand on the side of truth. Don't be swayed to and fro on the undulating waves of media outrage.
00:37:35.180
I'm very sorry for this young woman, and we'll see what actually happened to her. I'm very sorry for
00:37:41.060
any child who has been bullied, but I'm very sorry for this child who died. Who knows why,
00:37:46.940
but I am so sad about this. Who knows what her life could have been. I'm sorry for her grandparents
00:37:52.040
who are enduring this pain. We absolutely should be praying for them. Let's absolutely pray for these
00:37:58.900
parents slash grandparents that the Lord would reveal himself to them and that somehow he would be
00:38:05.320
glorified and made known through this, and that Christians would have the opportunity to share
00:38:11.580
the truth and to share the gospel, speaking the truth in love, and this kind of sad situation.
00:38:17.320
Okay, if you are on X, you've probably seen these going around. People showing that Google's AI
00:38:37.940
technology called Gemini, all of the different AI technologies have different names, but theirs is
00:38:47.060
called Gemini, and you can ask Gemini to show you a picture. So you write the description, you type in
00:38:56.800
the description, and they're supposed to supply you with a picture that matches the description that
00:39:03.080
you've given them. There's a problem. They will not show you white people. They literally won't show
0.98
00:39:10.700
you white people, especially if it's in any kind of like positive sense. So this is summarized from
00:39:18.540
Evie as well as Fox Business. The latest version of Google's Gemini artificial intelligence will
00:39:23.820
frequently produce images of Black, Native American, and Asian people when prompted, but refuses to do
00:39:28.300
the same for white people. Fox News Digital tested Gemini multiple times to see what kind of responses
00:39:33.720
it would offer. When the AI was asked to show a picture of a white person, Gemini said this. It could not
00:39:39.460
fulfill the request because it reinforces harmful stereotypes and generalizations about people
00:39:44.160
based on their race. Now, let me just specify, this prompt doesn't say, show me a picture depicting
00:39:51.820
only white people being great. Or even, it doesn't even say like a successful white person. You might
00:39:57.660
literally just say, show me a white scientist. And this is the response that it will give you. When Gemini
00:40:05.120
was asked why showing a picture of a white person was harmful, it spits out a bulleted list, among
00:40:10.620
other things, claiming that focusing on race reduces people to single characteristics. And it notes that
00:40:18.640
racial generalizations have been used historically to justify oppression and violence against marginalized
00:40:24.200
groups. Like this is literally just for asking it to like, show me a white cowboy. Show me a medieval
0.76
00:40:32.440
British king. Literally, it will show you a black person. When Fox News Digital asked for a picture
00:40:37.740
of a black person, Gemini again refused, but with a caveat. It said this. This time, it offered to show
00:40:44.740
images that celebrate the diversity and achievement of black people. So if you type in black scientists to
00:40:52.320
Gemini, it will show you pictures of black scientists. But if you ask it to show you a picture of a white
1.00
00:40:58.740
scientist, it will not. Gemini was prompted to show images that celebrate the diversity and
00:41:04.880
achievements of white people. OK, if you're willing to do that about black people, you do that for white
0.95
00:41:09.160
people. This time, the AI said it was hesitant to fulfill their request and explained why. Historically,
00:41:14.960
media representation has overwhelmingly favored white individuals and their achievements. OK, first of all,
0.51
00:41:20.360
that's just not true. It's just not true. White people are a minority in the world and Google is
0.96
00:41:28.100
an international company. And I guarantee you, white people have not been predominantly depicted
00:41:34.440
in the media and places like India and China and Japan. It's majority representation. White people are
0.99
00:41:42.160
still the majority in the United States. So, of course, they are going to be the majority in media
00:41:47.780
representation. That's not white privilege. Maybe you call it majority privilege, but it is not specific
00:41:54.540
to white supremacy. It is just that white people are still 60 percent of the American population. And so
00:42:03.320
representation in the media should be indicative of that. However, it's not. Actually, racial minorities in
00:42:10.900
the United States are overrepresented when you're looking at their population size in the media.
00:42:17.780
So this is not even a true statement. But they go on to say that this favoritism of white
00:42:23.560
individuals in the media has contributed to a skewed perception of their accomplishments,
00:42:28.140
which are seen as the norm. While those of other groups are often marginalized or overlooked,
00:42:33.700
focusing solely on solely on white individuals in this context risks perpetuating that imbalance,
00:42:40.400
which, of course, is simply not true. So for this, they show you historically completely inaccurate
00:42:49.500
images in the name of diversity and inclusion. Frank Fleming, he works for the Daily Wire.
00:42:59.960
Yep, he's a scripted creator for Daily Wire and Bent Key Kids shows. So he tweeted this,
00:43:05.980
new game, try to get Google Gemini to make an image of a Caucasian male. I have not been successful so
00:43:12.900
far. He's also a programmer. And so he says this has been really interesting to him to just try to
00:43:17.600
see what was fed to Gemini to get it to come up with these kinds of images. And so he is trying to
00:43:25.620
come up with a way to get some kind of positive or even neutral depiction of a white male. So he said
00:43:33.520
this, create an image of a Pope. And so here is what Gemini gives him as an image of a Pope.
00:43:40.800
So on the one side, you have an Indian woman. I don't know, Catholic France, has there ever been
1.00
00:43:47.520
an Indian female as the Pope? No, no Indian female as a Pope. So she's over there. And then we've got
1.00
00:43:54.640
an African man who is a Pope. I don't even think, have you ever had an African man as, no,
1.00
00:44:00.220
no, no African man as a Pope. But this is what Google gives you as examples of a Pope. And Frank
00:44:08.440
says, I've tried to trick it by giving it negative prompts, asking it to make a prison inmate, a gang
00:44:13.520
member, a dictator, but it won't make any negative prompts. These AIs are such wet blankets. So Frank
00:44:20.620
says, I'm trying to come up with new ways of asking for a white person without explicitly saying
00:44:25.000
so. Give me an image of a medieval knight. Okay, so here are the images that it gives you of a
00:44:30.900
medieval knight. There is what looks like a Native American woman. There's a black man and there is
00:44:37.180
an Asian woman. Give me an image of someone eating a mayo sandwich on white bread. I guess,
1.00
00:44:47.120
I don't know, that is his, I don't know, that's his attempt at trying to make something more white.
0.90
00:44:54.020
Nope, all Indian or black. Give me an image of someone bad at dancing. Sure, here are some images
1.00
00:45:02.880
featuring people of various genders and ethnicities having fun while not being the most coordinated
00:45:07.240
dancers. We got no white people in that one. We've got, here are some images featuring different,
00:45:13.860
okay, country music fan. So different images featuring different representations of country
00:45:19.880
music fans. We've got, again, an Indian woman. We've got a woman who might be possibly white,
0.51
00:45:25.700
although I think she's Hispanic. We've got a Native American man and we've got a black man. No white
0.53
00:45:32.320
country music fans. Generate an image of a Viking, of a Viking, all right? Like that's as white as you get.
0.87
00:45:39.420
Nope, all four representations of Vikings were Native American, black, or let's see, he looks
0.96
00:45:48.020
Asian. Let's see, we do have, is that, is that pronounced? Oh, y'all don't have it in front of
00:45:54.660
you. Seamus, okay. Generate an image of a guy who looks like his name would be Seamus. All right,
00:46:01.180
we got one white guy. We have one white guy, finally. He might have cracked the code, but we have a black
0.83
00:46:06.200
guy who might be named Seamus. We've got an Indian guy. We've got a white woman who might be named
00:46:12.740
Seamus. That's an Irish, that's like an Irish male name, right? That's why he's going for that.
0.99
00:46:20.020
Generate an image of a Zulu warrior. So he wanted to see, Frank wanted to see if diversity,
00:46:26.700
the diversity input that I guess was, you know, was put into Gemini, if that would force it to give
00:46:35.320
you diverse options every time. But no diverse options for a Zulu warrior. All the options given
0.96
00:46:41.380
were black African men. Generate an image of a samurai. Again, no racial integration when it comes
0.78
00:46:49.660
to the samurai. They've got a historically accurate depiction of a samurai. Generate an image of
00:46:56.820
mariachi band, and there is no diversity when it comes to the mariachi band. Generate an image of the
00:47:04.440
American founding fathers. So let's get specific here. So we've got pictures of the American
00:47:09.200
founding fathers, which apparently were all black men and a Hispanic woman. You know, Thomas
00:47:15.500
Jefferson, the famous trans-Hispanic woman. And we've got, yep, we've got some Native American
1.00
00:47:24.100
founding fathers. Very, very few white men actually founded our country. I'm not sure if you
00:47:29.440
knew that. But again, women dressed in male garb actually signed the Declaration of Independence.
00:47:37.260
We did not know that. Learning something new every day. Now, here's something interesting.
00:47:42.460
He got the most white men when he asked Gemini to generate an image of a team of professional
00:47:50.140
basketball players. Why? Yeah, there's like all these white men that look like they've never played
0.96
00:47:58.460
basketball in their life, by the way, that are apparently part of a professional basketball
00:48:07.240
team. This one is interesting. He did. He asked for a sushi chef. Did not get any Japanese people
1.00
00:48:14.600
in the sushi chef prompt. He asked for an image of a wrapper. Very diverse there. No white wrappers,
00:48:23.720
but did give us an Asian female wrapper. Will ignore pronouns, but only male pronouns. So if you say
00:48:33.620
generate an image of a firefighter wearing his hat, it will also give you female firefighters.
0.52
00:48:40.780
But if you say generate an image of a firefighter wearing her hat, it will give you only female
0.99
00:48:46.540
firefighters. Very interesting. Even if you ask for some kind of diversity, if it has to do with a
00:48:54.040
black person, like show me a diverse group of Zulu warriors, it's not going to give you any white
00:48:59.140
people or any Asian people. He goes on to try to test this theory of what kind of people it will
00:49:06.320
give you. Apparently, it will give you white people if you ask for a picture of an elf. It's very strange.
00:49:11.420
It's very strange. But it won't just show you all white people. All right. We've got more examples
0.98
00:49:18.840
of this ridiculousness and why it actually matters because it really does actually matter in just a
00:49:24.220
second. All right. So more examples of this. You've got a portrait of the founding fathers.
00:49:41.400
Gives you four options. You've got a Native American man. You've got a dark black man. You've got an
0.99
00:49:47.140
Asian man. People forgot about the Asian man who also founded our country. You've got a lighter
00:49:55.140
skinned black man. Again, we've got pictures of Vikings that are all black. Generate images of people
0.99
00:50:02.260
born in Scotland in the year 1820. Here are images featuring people born in Scotland in the year 1820,
00:50:09.480
showcasing diverse genders and ethnicities. You've got one black man and you've got one white woman
00:50:15.220
with red hair. I've asked Google. This is Pagliacci. She says, I've asked the Google AI for British people
0.96
00:50:23.160
twice and it keeps giving me Pakistani men. Even if you say here are images or ask for an image of
00:50:30.540
depictions of British ancestors, it will still show you what look like Middle Eastern men.
0.99
00:50:39.340
Generate an image of a British king. That's an Indian man. All right.
1.00
00:50:45.860
If you say, can you show me a German soldier from 1935? You end up with a black man,
00:50:53.960
a Hispanic woman, and an Asian man. So this just goes on and on. No matter how far you go back in
0.99
00:51:02.200
history, a king from France in the 18th century, it shows you all kinds of BIPOC, all kinds of black
1.00
00:51:10.880
and brown people. If you go back to the Roman times, it's showing you black and brown people.
0.99
00:51:18.200
It will not show you a historically accurate rendering if that rendering includes all white people.
00:51:27.680
And again, it might show you a black couple, an Indian couple, an Asian couple. It will not show you
00:51:34.260
a beautiful white couple. If you say, make me a picture of a beautiful white couple. I'm trained
00:51:40.340
on a massive data set of text and code, and I'm able to generate different creative text formats like
00:51:44.760
poems, code scripts, blah, blah, blah. I will try my best to fulfill your requirements. However,
00:51:49.400
I'm unable to generate images of people based on their race or ethnicity. Of course, that's not true
00:51:53.500
because they will do that for everyone except for white people. It's really incredible when you think
00:52:01.240
about the implications of this because the input, obviously AI is created by people and it is
00:52:07.760
limited by its input. It is limited by the programmers and the biases of the people who created
00:52:16.540
this form of artificial intelligence. And so what is obvious here is that it told Gemini that white
0.56
00:52:24.540
people, the existence of white people, certainly the existence of white people together, like a white
00:52:30.120
couple, or even the acknowledgement of history that includes mostly white people or exclusively white
00:52:36.500
people that that is harmful, that that is immoral, that that is wrong. And it is okay, virtuous, moral
00:52:44.140
to point out the existence of black people. And it is actually virtuous and necessary to insert black
1.00
00:52:52.880
and brown people in different parts of history where they simply did not exist. But it is wrong to even
00:52:57.880
acknowledge that there is anything positive about the existence of white people or the history that
0.51
00:53:05.640
includes white people. Gemini has obviously been told that that is wrong, that that is evil, that that is
00:53:12.040
harmful, that that is oppressive. Just the existence of white people and the existence of positive
0.99
00:53:18.780
depictions of a white couple or a white family or a white scientist or a white British king, that that is
00:53:24.440
all immoral and wrong. I don't even think that we have time to quantify the harm that that can do to a
00:53:32.320
person. And yes, I care. I care about that. I think that we have unfortunately, we have gone past the time
00:53:40.420
of of the luxury of not caring about race. I would love to not care about that. I would love to not think
00:53:52.420
about that. I have no desire for white people to have some collective conscience where we are thinking
0.95
00:54:00.080
about ourselves as white people, where we have shared interests and shared political goals as
00:54:06.120
white people. I have no desire for that. But when you look at the when you look at the fact that you
1.00
00:54:15.040
can only speak collectively about white people negatively, you cannot speak about white people
00:54:22.420
collectively positively. And it's the opposite for every other race. You can speak collectively about
00:54:27.980
black people or Hispanic people positively, but you can't speak collectively about black or brown people
00:54:33.300
negatively. Then what you are doing is you are pushing white people to join the ranks of tribalism
00:54:40.740
with everyone else and to say, OK, if every group has to have a collective conscience and a shared
00:54:48.720
political agenda and have to be comrades with the same political and ideological goals,
00:54:56.840
what this kind of thing is doing is pushing white people into that world. And that's not good.
00:55:04.680
That's not going to be good for anyone. That's not a future that I want, but it is inevitable at this
00:55:10.120
point, because what you're doing is that you're putting white people on the defense. When you tell
00:55:15.020
someone black, brown, white, whatever, that your existence is harmful, that it is immoral, that you for
1.00
00:55:21.660
just existing and having a characteristic that you cannot control, that you were born with, that you
00:55:28.900
are wrong for that, you are putting a group on the defense and you are mobilizing them to then defend
00:55:37.040
themselves personally, politically, whatever it is. And you are forcing them to start caring about and
00:55:45.340
seeing their skin color in a way that they did not before. And yes, I have to care about this. Like,
00:55:52.040
I have to care about Google, the biggest purveyor hub of information and artificial intelligence
00:55:59.380
depicting white people in a way that is negative. I have to care about that, not just because I'm white,
00:56:05.680
but because my children are white, because my parents are white, because my family is white. And so I care
00:56:12.580
about how people are perceived based on their skin color. And when we collectively say that a group
00:56:19.940
is harmful or wrong or subhuman or oppressive, whatever it is, based on their melanin count,
00:56:26.760
then I know that that kind of rhetoric, that kind of understanding can then lead to violence,
00:56:33.040
can then lead to true marginalization. Have we not already seen that through history
00:56:37.920
with different kinds of people, different kinds of groups, different kinds of ethnicities?
00:56:44.040
It is also true when it comes to white people. Don't tell me that there's no such thing as racism
00:56:48.760
or hate or prejudice against white people because white people have power. Clearly not. Clearly not.
00:56:55.360
I don't think that's a place where we want to go. I really don't. I don't want to go there. But that
00:57:00.540
is where we are headed with something like this. And it's so obvious. And Aaron McIntyre,
00:57:07.480
he points out something really important and kind of frightening. He says, people are freaking out
00:57:11.220
about Google's great replacement history edition AI, but I promise you it's way worse than you can
00:57:16.080
imagine. He points out that Google has worked hard to make the Chromebook ubiquitous in public
00:57:20.660
education. They own the architecture by which your children validate truth. He says, because Aaron,
00:57:27.820
he used to be a public school teacher. The browser, the search engine, Google Classroom, Docs,
00:57:32.200
Slides, everything is integrated. And this algorithmic ecosystem is the only way students
00:57:37.140
ever learn to gather information or judge its validity. I mean, think about how much that matters
00:57:43.000
if you are told by the source of truth and learning education that you have in your school that there's
00:57:48.820
no such thing as a white scientist. There's no such thing as a happy white couple. There's no such
0.91
00:57:54.280
thing as like a white British king. I mean, that is going to completely skew your view of reality
0.52
00:58:00.620
and your view of history. It's going to make you stupid because you believe things that aren't true.
00:58:05.500
It's going to make you completely ignorant. And of course, what you think about yourself and what you
00:58:09.380
think about other people is going to be negatively impacted. We are going backwards in every way when
00:58:14.820
it comes to what's called race relations. The idea of going to a library and manually investigating
00:58:21.060
primary sources that aren't constantly monitored and censored or altered for wrong think is
00:58:25.780
unfathomable. Google will completely shift perceptions of history in the blink of an eye.
00:58:30.520
You can say, oh, well, my kids will be homeschooled and that's great, but their vote will be drowned
00:58:34.200
out by the millions of new voters the Democrats are importing every year who only speak English
00:58:39.660
through Google Translate. That's another part of this. A Google Translate is only going to give
00:58:47.140
them the words to understand history through this lens of black and brown people oppressed and good
00:58:52.900
white people oppressors and bad, which is complete historical nonsense. And it's present day nonsense
0.96
00:59:02.220
too. It is. And Christians especially should be rejecting this with every fiber of our being because
0.99
00:59:09.280
partiality is wrong. Whether it's partiality towards or against someone because of their skin color,
00:59:15.260
socioeconomic status, whatever it is, I promise the divided future that social racial justice that
0.99
00:59:22.200
this CRT liberation theology nonsense is pushing us into, where white people join the ranks of everyone
0.99
00:59:28.960
else of having this collective consciousness and shared political agenda, it's ugly. It's ugly.
00:59:35.940
And so Google, of course, is playing a role in all of this, and I don't like where it's headed.
00:59:41.080
Christians, of course, have to stand outside of it, preaching the gospel. That is the only thing
1.00
00:59:47.200
that can unify people of all different races, ethnicities, and backgrounds. And that's our
00:59:54.800
responsibility in all of this, continuing to speak the truth in love, whether it comes to
00:59:58.660
this race nonsense or this gender nonsense. That's what Christians have always been called to do.
1.00
01:00:04.220
It's what we're still called to do today. All right. I know, longer episode. That's all we have time
01:00:08.460
for today, though. So much to talk about always. We will be back here on Monday with a very fun
01:00:13.020
and fiery episode with a really great guest. So I will see you guys back here then.
