The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1040 - Woke Med Students Disavow Science, Biology, and Modern Medicine

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Walsh Show, med students participate in a bizarre incantation ritual

00:00:04.580 where they pledge to reject the gender binary and show respect for primitive medical practices.

00:00:09.720 This is what modern medicine has become.

00:00:11.740 Speaking of modern medicine, Canada has expanded their euthanasia laws

00:00:14.960 so that now physically healthy young people, even minors, can be victims of doctor-assisted suicide.

00:00:20.240 Plus, the unedited portions of Kanye's interview with Tucker Carlson are leaked online.

00:00:24.540 The left is calling it a bombshell scoop.

00:00:26.760 We'll see if they're overreacting again.

00:00:28.960 They are, of course. 0.88

00:00:30.140 And even MSNBC is now admitting that John Fetterman is mentally incompetent,

00:00:34.160 but he's not dropping out of the race, of course.

00:00:36.020 All of that and more today on the Matt Walsh Show.

00:00:47.260 You know, the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe is a huge, albeit long overdue, step in the right direction.

00:00:52.800 But there's still a long way to go to rid our country of abortion. 0.97

00:00:55.600 Many companies are bowing to the woke mob by donating to pro-choice causes and candidates.

00:00:59.880 Or reimbursing their employees' travel expenses so that if they live and work in a pro-life state,

00:01:04.480 they can travel to a pro-abortion state, get an abortion, be back at work on Monday.

00:01:07.940 But what if I told you that if you're currently on a phone plan with one of the major carriers,

00:01:13.260 you might be supporting these companies and their pro-abortion agendas with your monthly phone bill.

00:01:17.940 Don't let abortionists use your money to fund policies you don't believe in.

00:01:21.920 Switch to Charity Mobile instead.

00:01:24.140 Charity Mobile is a pro-life, pro-family cell phone company that sends 5% of your monthly plan price to the pro-life charity of your choice.

00:01:45.700 This fight is not over.

00:01:46.640 It only continues.

00:01:48.120 And you can help by switching your phone service to Charity Mobile today.

00:02:02.000 The University of Minnesota Medical School is prestigious, has a great reputation.

00:02:08.460 Each year is ranked among the best medical schools in the entire country.

00:02:12.040 A man named Dr. Robert Englander is the associate dean for undergraduate medical education at the school.

00:02:17.220 And he is, like the institution he serves, highly regarded, highly respected.

00:02:21.480 His resume includes Yale Medical School, Johns Hopkins, Harvard Medical School,

00:02:26.500 a residency at Children's National Medical Center.

00:02:28.820 He's run the Ivy League medical school gamut.

00:02:32.000 And there was a time when all of that stuff might have meant that the University of Minnesota Medical School

00:02:38.400 and men like Dr. Robert Englander can be trusted.

00:02:42.120 But those days are long gone.

00:02:44.060 Here's the report from the Tennessee Star.

00:02:46.220 Quote, University of Minnesota Medical School students took an oath to, quote,

00:02:50.620 promote a culture of anti-racism during an August 19th white coat ceremony.

00:02:55.180 White coats, the students said, are themselves a symbol of power, prestige, and dominance.

00:03:01.660 Therefore, students will, quote, strive to reclaim their identity as a symbol of responsibility, humility, and loving kindness.

00:03:09.480 Quote, we commit to uprooting the legacy and perpetuation of structural violence deeply embedded within the health care system,

00:03:15.200 the students said.

00:03:15.940 According to a video of the ceremony, Dr. Robert Englander, associate dean for undergraduate medical education,

00:03:20.520 led students in reciting the oath, which he described as beautiful.

00:03:24.280 He said the class oath was written by the students in consultation with their faculty advisors.

00:03:28.540 Now, you can't fully appreciate this until you've actually seen the video, which was posted to Twitter by Chris Ruffo.

00:03:35.780 And let's go through it now.

00:03:37.000 Here it is.

00:03:37.360 With gratitude, we, the students of the University of Minnesota Twin Cities Medical School Class of 2026,

00:03:47.940 stand here today among our friends, families, peers, mentors, and communities who have supported us in reaching this milestone.

00:03:57.300 Our institution is located on Dakota land.

00:04:00.320 Today, many indigenous people throughout the state, including Dakota and Ojibwe, call the Twin Cities home.

00:04:08.580 We also recognize this acknowledgement is not enough.

00:04:12.580 We commit to uprooting the legacy and perpetuation of structural violence deeply embedded within the health care system.

00:04:20.160 We recognize inequities built by past and present traumas rooted in white supremacy, colonialism, the gender binary, ableism, and all forms of oppression.

00:04:34.720 Well, you're right.

00:04:35.740 This acknowledgement is not enough.

00:04:37.760 Your apology is not complete.

00:04:39.400 I will not believe that the repentance is sincere until Dr. Robert Englander demonstrates it through self-immolation.

00:04:45.820 And I mean literal self-immolation, like setting himself on fire, rather than simply immolating his credibility as a medical professional and his dignity as a man.

00:04:53.540 I mean, that much he has done.

00:04:54.940 But I got to see the full thing.

00:04:56.820 You got to go all the way.

00:04:58.240 So, as we heard there, it begins with the classic land acknowledgement where members of modern Western civilization apologize for being members of modern Western civilization.

00:05:07.500 Granted, all people everywhere on Earth are living on land that was once occupied and owned by other people.

00:05:14.000 All inhabited regions of the globe, without exception, have been fought over and bled over and for.

00:05:21.260 No other culture, though, apologizes for this fact, just as Native Americans never apologize for their own history of conquest and bloodshed. 1.00

00:05:29.360 This is a confrontation that they are never required to have with their own past. 1.00

00:05:33.840 Only modern Westerners are stupid enough for this kind of thing. 1.00

00:05:37.180 But the greater concern is that this doctor and these medical students are, in creepy unison, declaring the gender binary oppressive. 1.00

00:05:48.100 Now, it's theoretically possible that somebody could be a competent medical professional, even while suffering from a terminal case of performative white guilt. 0.69

00:05:57.180 And that's all the land acknowledgement stuff signifies.

00:05:59.160 But it is impossible that somebody could be a competent medical professional, or even a semi-competent one, while harboring the delusion that biology is some sort of oppressive, patriarchal construct and conspiracy.

00:06:13.860 All of their medical work must happen within the context of biological realities.

00:06:19.540 If they don't understand those realities, or have pledged to pretend they don't understand them, then they can't be trusted.

00:06:25.340 I mean, I wouldn't even take Tylenol if these lunatics recommended it, because they are fatally compromised.

00:06:32.680 And we're not done yet. Let's continue. 0.93

00:06:35.640 As we enter this profession with opportunity for growth, we commit to promoting a culture of anti-racism, listening, and amplifying voices for positive change.

00:06:47.140 We pledge to honor all indigenous ways of healing that have been historically marginalized by Western medicine.

00:06:55.340 I'm sorry, what? Honor all indigenous ways of healing? All of them? All? Are you sure? All?

00:07:03.400 I mean, most indigenous ways of healing are based in paganism and animism.

00:07:08.300 You know, the belief that all things, including rocks and rivers and plants and all that, have souls and are, in a sense, supernatural.

00:07:15.480 This is the belief system that these ideas are rooted in.

00:07:18.720 And primitive people may have had some useful medical insights about plants and medicinal plants and all that, 0.96

00:07:25.160 but they were ignorant of most of the scientific realities that make modern medicine possible.

00:07:31.160 So when you say all, are we including, for example, the primitive practice of trepanation,

00:07:38.120 which is boring holes in a person's skull to treat spiritual or physical illnesses?

00:07:42.320 That's something that indigenous people in this part of the world did, especially in South America.

00:07:47.200 So are we honoring that?

00:07:49.100 What about bloodletting or topical ointments made out of animal droppings and dead lizards?

00:07:54.940 What about ritualistic and medicinal cannibalism?

00:07:58.580 Is Minnesota Medical School going to start teaching those strategies too?

00:08:01.380 In indigenous cultures, most medical issues are treated by shaman, you know, witch doctors, 0.99

00:08:07.000 who would get high on hallucinogens and then dance around shaking a magical stick or whatever.

00:08:13.500 Is that the sort of treatment plan I can now expect from doctors who earn degrees from Minnesota Medical School?

00:08:19.720 If I go to the doctor complaining of a back ache, is he going to say,

00:08:23.720 okay, hang on a second, and like dose himself with some LSD and start dancing around the room, chanting?

00:08:31.380 Perhaps so, because we wouldn't want to marginalize those medical practices.

00:08:37.300 Continuing on.

00:08:39.860 Knowing that health is intimately connected to our environment,

00:08:43.240 we commit to healing our planet and communities.

00:08:47.300 We vow to embrace our role as community members and strive to embody cultural humility.

00:08:54.180 We promise to continue restoring trust in the medical system

00:08:57.840 and fulfilling our responsibilities as educators and advocates.

00:09:02.260 We commit to collaborating with social, political, and additional systems to advance health equity.

00:09:10.840 Cultural humility, he says.

00:09:12.400 You know, the other thing that's annoying about all this is that, as always,

00:09:15.480 they never are consistent in the principle.

00:09:18.420 Cultural humility, in and of itself, I would agree with.

00:09:24.440 And there's not a lot of cultural humility these days.

00:09:27.980 Which is why we spend so much time, you know, tearing down statues and monuments and everything

00:09:35.620 and talking about the sins of our ancestors and our forefathers,

00:09:40.700 elevating ourselves above them,

00:09:43.020 you know, engaging in this kind of chronological snobbery, as I believe C.S. Lewis put it.

00:09:49.440 So we're doing that. 0.99

00:09:51.460 It's like, people that lived before us were a bunch of barbaric scumbags 0.97

00:09:56.200 simply because they lived before us, and we're better because we live now. 0.98

00:09:58.800 But then at the exact same time, we're also told that,

00:10:02.200 well, we don't want to marginalize indigenous healing methods.

00:10:06.440 So on one hand, there is no cultural humility.

00:10:09.860 And then on the other hand, there's also, at the exact same time,

00:10:12.620 this, like, degrading, debasing of yourself,

00:10:16.300 where you're elevating these primitive concepts above you.

00:10:19.720 But all this is racially based, of course.

00:10:21.340 That's how we explain the patterns.

00:10:24.060 Anyway, this is a relief,

00:10:26.320 because they did also say there in that last clip

00:10:28.800 that they're restoring trust in the medical system.

00:10:32.100 They're restoring trust by making me think

00:10:35.100 that I'm probably better off simply dying of any serious disease I contract 1.00

00:10:38.400 rather than consulting with one of these lunatics. 0.99

00:10:40.720 That's how they restore trust.

00:10:43.200 But it's always, you know, though this footage is deeply horrifying,

00:10:46.620 though it may chill you to the bone to see what modern medicine has become,

00:10:50.060 it is good that you see it.

00:10:52.040 I would rather that they utter these incantations in full public view on camera

00:10:56.440 than do it in secret.

00:10:58.460 It allows us to see where we stand,

00:11:00.520 and it also helps us to understand that we are dealing

00:11:02.740 not with an ideology or a political system.

00:11:07.060 This is not merely, you know, doctors who are partisan

00:11:09.500 or have political biases.

00:11:11.400 Those kinds of doctors have always existed, of course.

00:11:14.080 That's not what we're talking about.

00:11:14.820 We're talking about a religion.

00:11:16.300 It is a religion unlike any other in the history of the world,

00:11:19.300 because this religion is centered around

00:11:21.220 the fundamental rejection of truth.

00:11:24.380 Many religions before this have been untrue.

00:11:28.160 Many religions have had false ideas about the world, 1.00

00:11:30.880 but even the false and untrue ones have strived for truth.

00:11:35.360 They claim to be true.

00:11:37.060 They saw themselves as an access point for truth,

00:11:40.100 as maybe the only access point for truth.

00:11:42.700 But this modern Western liberal religion

00:11:45.420 simply rejects truth as a category.

00:11:49.160 Now, this is not ignorance.

00:11:51.200 Indigenous cultures,

00:11:52.400 with their often counterproductive medical practices, 1.00

00:11:55.460 were ignorant. 0.99

00:11:56.720 Through no fault of their own, 1.00

00:11:59.040 all ancient people were ignorant. 0.99

00:12:01.420 They didn't know very much 0.98

00:12:02.620 about how the physical world functions or why.

00:12:05.100 These things had not been explained to them yet.

00:12:07.780 Many cases had not been discovered yet.

00:12:10.540 But the religion of leftism stands in the light of truth.

00:12:14.060 It stands on the shoulders of people

00:12:15.740 who have revealed many important truths to them.

00:12:19.980 And then it chooses falsehood.

00:12:22.220 It chooses ignorance.

00:12:24.600 As an act of will, it chooses untruth.

00:12:27.420 There have been false religions. 1.00

00:12:32.000 This, on the other hand, is falsehood as religion. 0.74

00:12:36.240 And these cultists, these religious fanatics,

00:12:38.420 are in positions of power and prestige in our culture.

00:12:41.080 They run our schools and our government.

00:12:42.740 And now they run the medical field.

00:12:45.160 Which is something to keep in mind

00:12:47.220 the next time you have to go to the doctor, at least.

00:12:50.780 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:12:58.500 For those who've been following the story,

00:13:00.480 Vanderbilt Hospitals agreed to pause

00:13:01.940 all gender transition surgeries on minors.

00:13:04.220 This is a big win.

00:13:05.540 A left-wing institution caving to pressure from the right

00:13:08.160 deserves some recognition.

00:13:09.740 But the fight is far from over.

00:13:11.040 There's still so much we can do to protect our children

00:13:13.420 from this evil leftist indoctrination.

00:13:15.260 And one thing you can do today

00:13:16.380 is write a will.

00:13:18.240 You know, many new parents don't realize

00:13:19.480 how important it is to have a will in place.

00:13:21.060 But the sad truth is that

00:13:21.880 if you were to die tomorrow without a will,

00:13:23.840 the fate of your children would be left up to the state.

00:13:26.460 I don't know about you,

00:13:27.120 but I don't want the state deciding anything for my family.

00:13:29.780 Luckily, my partners over at Epic Will

00:13:31.360 make early estate planning incredibly easy and affordable.

00:14:01.360 Okay, we're going to start with something

00:14:02.800 gut-wrenching and stomach-churning.

00:14:05.540 This is an article written by freelance journalist

00:14:07.360 Rupa Sabramanya,

00:14:10.160 which I think I got that right,

00:14:11.460 on her sub stack.

00:14:12.340 And it's a very important article,

00:14:15.780 by the way,

00:14:16.080 that you should go look up,

00:14:17.760 and well-written.

00:14:19.700 And it's quite relevant to the topic today,

00:14:22.120 as it documents the medical industry's

00:14:24.420 further plunge into moral madness.

00:14:27.740 And by extension,

00:14:29.000 the West's plunge into moral madness.

00:14:32.100 So assisted suicide

00:14:33.100 is becoming increasingly popular

00:14:35.620 in the West,

00:14:36.320 especially in Canada.

00:14:37.980 And starts in Canada and filters down.

00:14:39.840 That land acknowledgement nonsense

00:14:41.440 grew,

00:14:43.020 became prominent,

00:14:44.540 became popular in Canada,

00:14:45.980 and is filtering down now

00:14:47.140 into the United States.

00:14:49.620 Same thing with the expansion

00:14:51.780 of assisted suicide.

00:14:53.120 So popular West,

00:14:54.440 especially in Canada.

00:14:56.060 And in Canada,

00:14:56.820 the laws have been repeatedly adjusted

00:14:59.280 to make more people eligible

00:15:01.060 for this sort of

00:15:02.680 quote-unquote treatment.

00:15:06.060 And it's getting to the point

00:15:07.720 where in some parts of Canada,

00:15:10.100 assisted suicide,

00:15:11.480 euthanasia,

00:15:12.140 is one of the leading causes of death.

00:15:14.160 That's how common it is.

00:15:16.300 As the author documents in this article,

00:15:18.220 it's become an epidemic,

00:15:19.280 and now it's an epidemic

00:15:20.080 that includes

00:15:21.420 very young people,

00:15:23.140 even kids.

00:15:23.920 So I'm going to read

00:15:25.760 some of this now.

00:15:28.000 On September 7th,

00:15:29.280 Margaret Marcilla

00:15:30.240 called Joshua Tepper

00:15:31.740 the doctor who planned 0.55

00:15:32.800 to kill her son. 0.65

00:15:34.580 Marcilla is 46. 0.99

00:15:35.700 She lives outside Toronto

00:15:36.680 with her husband and daughter,

00:15:37.740 a nursing student.

00:15:39.040 She had known

00:15:39.720 that her 23-year-old son,

00:15:42.240 Keanu Vafayan,

00:15:44.320 was depressed.

00:15:45.780 He was diabetic,

00:15:46.900 had lost his vision in one eye,

00:15:48.300 and he didn't have a job,

00:15:49.220 a girlfriend,

00:15:49.640 and much of a future.

00:15:50.900 And Marcilla asked her daughter

00:15:52.280 to log on

00:15:53.240 to Keanu's account.

00:15:54.240 Keanu had given his sister access

00:15:55.340 so she could help him

00:15:56.060 with his email.

00:15:57.080 He never shared anything

00:15:57.880 with his mother,

00:15:58.480 what he was thinking,

00:15:59.220 where he was going,

00:15:59.880 and Marcilla was scared.

00:16:01.340 That was when Marcilla learned

00:16:02.300 that Keanu

00:16:02.900 had applied in the late July,

00:16:04.640 had been approved

00:16:05.200 for medical assistance

00:16:06.460 in dying,

00:16:07.340 a.k.a.

00:16:08.220 MAID,

00:16:08.720 M-A-I-D, 0.99

00:16:10.160 a.k.a.

00:16:10.940 assisted suicide.

00:16:12.780 His death was scheduled

00:16:14.080 for September 22nd.

00:16:15.440 In a September 7th email

00:16:16.720 from Tepper,

00:16:17.540 the doctor,

00:16:18.120 to Keanu

00:16:18.560 and Tecla Hendrickson,

00:16:19.800 the executive director

00:16:20.760 for MAID House,

00:16:21.820 the Toronto facility

00:16:22.640 where Keanu's death

00:16:23.380 would take place,

00:16:24.620 Tepper mapped out the schedule.

00:16:26.760 Here's the email.

00:16:28.120 Hi, he emailed.

00:16:29.660 I'm confirming

00:16:30.420 the following time.

00:16:31.500 Please arrive at 8.30 a.m.

00:16:32.840 I will ask for the nurse

00:16:33.860 at 8.45 a.m.,

00:16:34.880 and I will start the procedure

00:16:36.040 at around 9 a.m.

00:16:37.920 Procedure will be completed

00:16:38.960 a few minutes

00:16:39.540 after it starts.

00:16:41.440 Okay.

00:16:42.360 Let's pause for a second here

00:16:43.480 to take note of

00:16:44.580 one of the most insidious

00:16:46.380 aspects of assisted suicide.

00:16:48.700 Notice the language

00:16:49.820 that's being used.

00:16:51.220 Procedure.

00:16:52.340 Treatment.

00:16:52.960 Right?

00:16:53.200 You're going to a facility.

00:16:54.660 There's appointments.

00:16:56.320 Someone's emailing you

00:16:57.200 to confirm the appointment.

00:16:58.700 Working out logistics.

00:16:59.760 It sounds like

00:17:00.140 a communication between,

00:17:02.360 you know,

00:17:02.880 that you would have

00:17:03.300 with a dentist

00:17:03.820 or something,

00:17:04.460 an orthodontist.

00:17:05.860 And the effect

00:17:06.860 is that we are

00:17:07.560 sanitizing suicide.

00:17:09.000 We are sanitizing death.

00:17:10.360 We're making it seem

00:17:11.080 like something

00:17:11.520 other than it is.

00:17:13.340 And this doesn't

00:17:14.160 just make suicidal people

00:17:15.340 feel better

00:17:15.940 about their suicides,

00:17:17.220 which would be bad enough.

00:17:20.000 Okay.

00:17:20.200 I don't see any difference

00:17:20.780 between this

00:17:21.240 and you see a suicidal person

00:17:22.720 who's standing

00:17:24.040 at the edge of a bridge

00:17:25.860 and about to jump off.

00:17:27.660 And rather than trying

00:17:28.560 to convince him

00:17:29.300 to step back from the edge,

00:17:30.580 you just try to make him

00:17:31.300 feel better about

00:17:32.040 what he's going to do.

00:17:32.880 Oh, go ahead.

00:17:33.480 It'll be fine.

00:17:33.960 It won't hurt that much.

00:17:36.540 Like, if someone did that,

00:17:37.820 I mean,

00:17:38.020 if you were to witness

00:17:38.680 a scene like that,

00:17:39.660 a suicidal person

00:17:40.780 standing at the edge

00:17:41.360 of a bridge,

00:17:42.000 someone else shouting to them

00:17:43.100 to make them feel

00:17:43.500 better about it,

00:17:44.700 it'll be painless,

00:17:45.360 I promise.

00:17:46.560 You would think

00:17:48.080 that person's a monster.

00:17:49.560 What kind of person are you? 0.99

00:17:50.560 This person needs help.

00:17:52.600 They're going to throw

00:17:53.240 their life away.

00:17:53.920 We don't want to see

00:17:54.520 that happen.

00:17:56.920 And yet,

00:17:57.440 this is exactly

00:17:58.340 what's happening

00:17:59.020 in the case

00:18:01.340 of assisted suicide.

00:18:02.060 And as I'm talking

00:18:03.560 about this,

00:18:03.980 I'm remembering

00:18:04.540 that there have been

00:18:05.400 criminal cases

00:18:06.740 that I forget

00:18:07.300 the girl's name,

00:18:08.260 but there was a

00:18:08.760 famous criminal case

00:18:10.300 in this country

00:18:12.440 a few years ago

00:18:13.360 of a girl

00:18:15.060 who encouraged

00:18:17.200 her boyfriend

00:18:17.740 to commit suicide.

00:18:19.200 And he was depressed

00:18:20.160 and she encouraged it

00:18:21.180 and she kept telling him

00:18:22.800 that it'll be fine

00:18:23.780 and he was even

00:18:24.540 in his car

00:18:26.000 about to commit suicide

00:18:27.040 and she was coaching him

00:18:28.260 through it

00:18:28.660 and saying,

00:18:29.080 it'll be painless,

00:18:29.680 it'll be fine,

00:18:30.220 this is how you make

00:18:31.360 your problems go away.

00:18:34.100 And she was charged

00:18:35.040 with crime for that

00:18:35.780 and for good reason.

00:18:38.620 Yet this is exactly

00:18:39.860 what is happening

00:18:40.600 with assisted suicide

00:18:41.560 and it's happening

00:18:42.160 in a medical context

00:18:43.260 and because the person

00:18:44.020 has a white coat

00:18:45.220 and can call themselves

00:18:47.120 a doctor,

00:18:47.740 suddenly it's okay.

00:18:51.260 But it's even worse

00:18:53.500 than that.

00:18:53.960 It's not just making

00:18:54.680 suicidal people feel

00:18:55.460 better about their suicide,

00:18:56.580 it's also

00:18:57.140 making it seem appealing

00:19:01.360 to people

00:19:02.980 who otherwise

00:19:04.400 wouldn't be suicidal.

00:19:05.760 It encourages suicide,

00:19:07.180 in other words.

00:19:08.380 Quite intentionally,

00:19:09.340 of course.

00:19:11.100 The other thing

00:19:11.560 to keep in mind

00:19:11.960 as we go through this

00:19:12.720 and we'll get to this article

00:19:14.500 in a moment,

00:19:15.940 but it's worth emphasizing

00:19:16.920 that we are way past

00:19:18.440 the point of euthanasia

00:19:20.220 for elderly people

00:19:21.720 who are terminally ill

00:19:22.940 and going to be dead 0.85

00:19:24.140 next week anyway. 0.91

00:19:25.320 And I think still

00:19:25.880 when you hear about euthanasia,

00:19:26.740 that's what comes to mind,

00:19:27.680 but we are way past that.

00:19:29.140 We're talking about

00:19:30.000 putting down like dogs,

00:19:32.780 physically healthy people,

00:19:34.120 young people,

00:19:34.780 people who should have

00:19:35.440 long lives in front of them.

00:19:38.020 We are much further

00:19:39.260 down the slippery slope.

00:19:40.860 It's a slope

00:19:41.760 that some of us

00:19:42.680 warned would happen

00:19:44.680 if we legalized

00:19:46.080 euthanasia at all.

00:19:47.640 Some of us have been warning

00:19:49.620 about this for years.

00:19:52.160 We said if doctors

00:19:53.860 get into the business

00:19:54.920 of doling out death

00:19:56.660 as a way to get around

00:19:59.160 a problem that you're having

00:20:00.240 or to deal with

00:20:00.980 a problem that you're having,

00:20:01.540 even if it's a very

00:20:02.080 serious problem,

00:20:03.460 a fatal problem,

00:20:04.260 like a terminal illness,

00:20:05.380 once doctors get into

00:20:06.580 the business of that,

00:20:07.560 there is no end.

00:20:08.860 There's no floor.

00:20:09.680 There's no basement.

00:20:13.480 And we warned about that

00:20:14.860 and we were ignored.

00:20:16.900 But here's the thing.

00:20:17.860 We are always right.

00:20:19.080 When we warn about

00:20:21.140 the slippery slope,

00:20:21.980 we are always right.

00:20:23.480 Always.

00:20:24.440 Always.

00:20:25.940 Always.

00:20:26.860 We have never been wrong.

00:20:28.740 We've been right

00:20:29.400 every single time.

00:20:32.100 Maybe at some point

00:20:32.880 people will start

00:20:33.320 listening to us.

00:20:35.620 And you still have 1.00

00:20:36.220 these morons 1.00

00:20:36.780 who treat the slippery slope. 1.00

00:20:37.680 Oh, it's a fallacy.

00:20:38.520 Slippery slope's a fallacy.

00:20:39.320 Oh, it's a fallacy.

00:20:40.080 It's just that we're right

00:20:41.600 every single time.

00:20:45.760 Continuing along,

00:20:46.440 it says,

00:20:46.540 the procedure entailed

00:20:47.520 administering two drugs,

00:20:48.980 first a coma-inducing agent,

00:20:50.600 then a neuromuscular blocker

00:20:52.240 that would stop

00:20:52.780 Keanu's breathing.

00:20:53.680 He'd be dead

00:20:54.140 in five to ten minutes.

00:20:55.080 Apparently,

00:20:55.460 Keanu wanted to bring

00:20:56.260 a dog with him.

00:20:57.660 In an email to him

00:20:58.420 that same day,

00:20:59.100 Hendrickson said,

00:21:00.200 dogs are welcome

00:21:00.920 in the space

00:21:01.420 as long as there's

00:21:02.060 someone there

00:21:02.540 who will be responsible

00:21:03.340 for them

00:21:03.780 during the time

00:21:04.380 at Maid House.

00:21:05.820 Marcello was terrified.

00:21:06.700 She had tried

00:21:07.080 to do everything

00:21:07.640 for her son,

00:21:08.360 but it had been

00:21:08.820 rough for him.

00:21:10.620 And it goes into

00:21:11.320 what he'd gone through

00:21:12.420 in his life.

00:21:13.400 He'd been through

00:21:13.840 a lot of

00:21:14.140 very difficult things.

00:21:15.720 He was unhappy.

00:21:17.500 And that's when

00:21:18.460 he decided to reach out

00:21:19.980 about being killed.

00:21:23.540 Now,

00:21:24.000 the story doesn't

00:21:24.540 really have a,

00:21:25.360 you know,

00:21:25.520 there's no ending

00:21:26.440 really to the story.

00:21:27.140 Certainly not a happy one.

00:21:28.280 It goes on to say

00:21:29.000 that after the mother's

00:21:29.800 efforts to fight

00:21:30.580 against this,

00:21:31.240 the suicide appointment

00:21:32.080 was canceled.

00:21:33.500 But her son

00:21:34.300 is still in despair.

00:21:35.980 He hates his mom now

00:21:37.160 for trying to save him.

00:21:39.120 Though he does,

00:21:40.320 he doesn't right now

00:21:41.620 have an active appointment 0.94

00:21:42.520 to kill himself. 0.99

00:21:43.320 So that's the positive. 1.00

00:21:44.720 The negative is that,

00:21:45.680 you know,

00:21:45.860 he's far from

00:21:46.900 out of the woods

00:21:47.420 and same for her.

00:21:48.780 The struggle goes on.

00:21:50.720 And that's how it should be.

00:21:52.140 Right?

00:21:52.440 Because we fight

00:21:53.180 for life.

00:21:54.140 We don't give up on it.

00:21:55.500 And when someone's

00:21:56.140 going through

00:21:56.720 a time like this,

00:21:58.600 a very dark time,

00:22:00.040 and you try to help them,

00:22:01.600 it's very likely

00:22:02.420 that they're going to

00:22:02.780 lash out at you.

00:22:03.420 They're going to start

00:22:03.780 blaming you.

00:22:04.420 I mean,

00:22:04.520 you're trying to help them

00:22:05.400 and save them

00:22:05.960 and they're going to

00:22:06.520 take it out on you.

00:22:07.520 That's what her, 0.95

00:22:08.380 this guy's mom

00:22:09.480 is dealing with.

00:22:10.060 But you keep

00:22:12.960 fighting for it

00:22:13.660 because life is

00:22:14.540 worth fighting for.

00:22:15.260 If it's not,

00:22:15.660 then what's the point

00:22:16.140 of anything?

00:22:17.580 What's the point of it?

00:22:18.560 Everyone's worried

00:22:19.000 about nuclear war.

00:22:19.700 We might as well 0.99

00:22:20.000 all just incinerate 1.00

00:22:20.660 ourselves with nukes 0.99

00:22:22.140 on purpose

00:22:22.640 and be done with it

00:22:23.460 if life is not

00:22:24.480 worth fighting for

00:22:25.120 and saving.

00:22:28.100 We can't get to the point

00:22:28.960 where we say,

00:22:29.300 well, this person

00:22:29.720 is depressed

00:22:30.220 and they'll always

00:22:31.500 be like this.

00:22:32.040 There's no point

00:22:32.460 in him living anymore.

00:22:33.200 Let's put him down

00:22:33.880 like an old golden retriever

00:22:35.120 and move on.

00:22:37.100 No, you keep

00:22:37.500 fighting for life.

00:22:38.180 And then the article

00:22:40.920 goes on to talk

00:22:41.480 about the numbers

00:22:42.300 right now

00:22:42.740 and how in Canada

00:22:43.760 especially they are

00:22:45.140 rapidly increasing.

00:22:47.200 You know,

00:22:47.420 year over year

00:22:48.080 over year,

00:22:48.540 more and more people

00:22:49.280 falling victim

00:22:50.780 to euthanasia

00:22:51.500 and the reason

00:22:52.040 why it's increasing

00:22:52.760 is because,

00:22:53.740 well, we live

00:22:54.040 in a culture of death

00:22:54.820 that encourages

00:22:55.340 this kind of thing

00:22:55.980 and encourages despair

00:22:56.840 and also at the same time

00:22:58.060 they are relaxing

00:23:00.400 and relaxing

00:23:01.040 and amending the laws

00:23:02.320 to include more

00:23:03.660 and more people.

00:23:05.580 And now,

00:23:06.200 as we said,

00:23:06.980 you could get euthanasia

00:23:08.160 even if you don't

00:23:08.680 have a terminal illness

00:23:09.520 even if you're young

00:23:10.680 and now

00:23:11.660 they're even talking

00:23:12.400 about amending

00:23:13.720 the law again

00:23:14.640 so that children

00:23:17.640 without parental consent

00:23:19.660 so that teenagers,

00:23:20.980 okay,

00:23:21.260 minors,

00:23:21.800 it's what they're calling

00:23:22.900 a mature minor doctrine

00:23:24.380 under the mature minor,

00:23:26.080 the so-called

00:23:26.500 mature minor doctrine,

00:23:27.980 minors

00:23:29.780 can get euthanasia

00:23:31.700 without parental consent.

00:23:32.580 So they're going 0.99

00:23:34.200 to start killing 1.00

00:23:34.760 teenagers 1.00

00:23:35.240 without parental consent.

00:23:37.440 Full-on moral collapse,

00:23:38.860 I mean,

00:23:39.180 just complete

00:23:40.220 in the West.

00:23:42.060 And this is also

00:23:42.780 the continued,

00:23:43.540 we talk about

00:23:43.960 self-immolation,

00:23:44.760 it's the continued

00:23:45.400 self-immolation

00:23:46.240 of medicine,

00:23:48.020 of the medical profession

00:23:49.160 as it continues

00:23:51.420 to profit

00:23:53.140 off of harm.

00:23:54.940 many such cases

00:23:58.740 and it's really

00:24:00.800 the so-called

00:24:01.920 affirmative care model

00:24:03.260 brought to its

00:24:04.080 inevitable

00:24:04.480 and violent

00:24:05.480 and quite

00:24:07.220 grotesque conclusion.

00:24:09.360 We know about

00:24:10.060 the affirmative care model

00:24:11.180 when it comes to gender

00:24:12.440 and someone

00:24:13.260 who's gender confused

00:24:14.180 and in despair

00:24:14.840 because of their

00:24:15.400 gender confusion,

00:24:16.540 they come in

00:24:17.340 and they have

00:24:17.800 that confusion affirmed

00:24:19.500 rather than having

00:24:21.500 reality affirmed,

00:24:22.440 they have their

00:24:22.760 confusion affirmed

00:24:23.720 and then they just

00:24:24.260 fall deeper and deeper

00:24:24.940 into despair

00:24:25.480 and now the same

00:24:26.320 thing is happening

00:24:26.780 with depression.

00:24:28.580 A depressed

00:24:29.280 and suicidal person

00:24:30.080 comes to the doctor

00:24:30.780 and they have

00:24:31.540 their depression

00:24:32.080 and suicide

00:24:32.640 confirmed

00:24:33.140 and affirmed.

00:24:35.480 Rather than saying,

00:24:36.880 no, you'll get

00:24:37.260 through this,

00:24:37.860 it's not going to be

00:24:38.360 like this your whole life,

00:24:38.940 your life is still

00:24:39.380 worth living,

00:24:40.940 they're told,

00:24:41.420 yeah, you know what,

00:24:41.940 if you feel like this now,

00:24:42.880 you're never not

00:24:43.360 going to feel like this

00:24:44.120 and so you might as 1.00

00:24:46.120 well kill yourself. 1.00

00:24:48.000 But they're being told. 1.00

00:24:50.700 It's just

00:24:51.300 so barbaric

00:24:53.360 especially for those

00:24:55.440 of us who are

00:24:56.040 a little bit older

00:24:56.600 and have lived

00:24:57.060 a while

00:24:57.980 and, you know,

00:24:59.900 we know that

00:25:00.600 you can go through

00:25:01.160 times in life,

00:25:01.780 you can go through

00:25:02.280 periods,

00:25:02.760 you can go through

00:25:03.240 very dark periods

00:25:04.360 in life.

00:25:04.700 I mean,

00:25:04.800 many people have.

00:25:05.940 You go through

00:25:06.320 very dark periods

00:25:07.280 and they can be so dark

00:25:09.280 that you don't see

00:25:09.740 an end to it.

00:25:10.460 You feel lost.

00:25:11.060 You don't see the light

00:25:11.660 at the end of the tunnel.

00:25:12.240 You feel like it's

00:25:12.600 going to be like this

00:25:13.040 forever.

00:25:13.940 And then in so many

00:25:15.960 cases,

00:25:16.580 you come out of it.

00:25:18.860 And maybe there'll be

00:25:19.340 a time in your life

00:25:19.840 when you go back into it.

00:25:20.800 That's part of life.

00:25:21.760 Life is hard

00:25:23.060 and there's

00:25:23.880 suffering involved.

00:25:26.520 But when you're

00:25:27.240 in your lowest moment

00:25:28.180 and you're suffering

00:25:28.740 your most,

00:25:29.480 it doesn't mean

00:25:30.360 it's going to be

00:25:30.760 like that forever.

00:25:33.560 That should be

00:25:34.260 the message.

00:25:34.640 That's a message

00:25:35.020 of hope,

00:25:35.600 but it's not

00:25:37.400 what we're getting

00:25:37.720 anymore.

00:25:39.340 All right.

00:25:40.600 Kanye West

00:25:41.460 was trending again.

00:25:42.980 This time

00:25:43.600 because of this

00:25:45.000 article from Vice.

00:25:46.320 It says,

00:25:46.640 Fox News recently

00:25:47.440 aired a two-part

00:25:48.240 interview between

00:25:48.880 Tucker Carlson

00:25:49.640 and Yeh,

00:25:50.380 the artist formerly

00:25:51.040 known as Kanye West.

00:25:52.700 Motherboard has obtained

00:25:53.900 portions of the interview

00:25:55.220 that were edited out

00:25:56.080 of the final broadcast.

00:25:57.480 These include

00:25:58.200 numerous anti-Semitic

00:25:59.420 statements from Yeh,

00:26:00.480 a strange and lengthy

00:26:01.480 digression about fake

00:26:02.620 children he claimed

00:26:03.460 were planted in his

00:26:04.240 house to manipulate

00:26:04.880 his own children,

00:26:06.060 and a statement that

00:26:06.660 he's vaccinated

00:26:07.220 against COVID-19.

00:26:09.640 Carlson used the

00:26:10.340 interview,

00:26:10.700 which was presented

00:26:11.340 as a piece of

00:26:12.020 landmark television,

00:26:13.460 to hit on a few

00:26:14.260 of Fox News'

00:26:15.060 favorite boogeymen

00:26:15.640 with Yeh's

00:26:16.260 enthusiastic anticipation.

00:26:17.960 The Clintons,

00:26:18.680 former President Obama,

00:26:19.540 COVID restrictions,

00:26:20.200 and of course,

00:26:20.540 the Kardashians.

00:26:21.940 But what the

00:26:22.240 Tucker Carlson team

00:26:22.900 chose to leave out

00:26:23.780 is just as revealing.

00:26:25.300 In the version of

00:26:25.800 the interview that

00:26:26.320 made it to air,

00:26:27.000 Yeh described what

00:26:27.620 he said was pressure

00:26:28.740 not to support

00:26:29.320 Donald Trump

00:26:29.820 when the latter

00:26:30.560 was a candidate,

00:26:31.400 called the singer

00:26:31.940 Lizzo clinically

00:26:32.740 unhealthy for her

00:26:33.460 weight,

00:26:33.700 which is true.

00:26:34.680 And anyway,

00:26:35.520 talking about

00:26:35.760 White Lives Matter 0.90

00:26:36.200 so we know about

00:26:36.640 that.

00:26:37.080 Yada, yada.

00:26:38.300 So they have

00:26:40.040 some of the stuff

00:26:40.800 that was edited out,

00:26:42.440 and it's mostly

00:26:43.740 just Kanye

00:26:45.340 rambling in

00:26:46.900 relatively incoherent

00:26:48.320 ways.

00:26:49.340 So here's one

00:26:50.260 example of one

00:26:50.940 of those clips.

00:26:52.880 I'll talk to him

00:26:53.720 if I see him.

00:26:54.800 Yep.

00:26:55.960 But I guarantee

00:26:56.600 he's seen me.

00:26:57.820 I have visions

00:26:59.020 that God gives me

00:27:00.600 just over and over

00:27:02.160 on community building

00:27:03.400 and how to build

00:27:04.840 these free energy,

00:27:08.480 kinetic,

00:27:09.600 fully kinetic energy

00:27:11.080 communities where

00:27:13.320 we impress,

00:27:15.740 we put the least

00:27:16.940 impression on the

00:27:18.100 earth.

00:27:18.300 We're not building

00:27:19.180 the new New York

00:27:21.320 skyline fight

00:27:23.060 that we are humble

00:27:26.200 in the way that

00:27:27.920 we present ourselves.

00:27:28.920 We've got to rethink

00:27:30.020 who we are as a

00:27:30.780 species.

00:27:35.000 Okay.

00:27:35.940 So that's

00:27:37.060 some scandalous

00:27:37.960 stuff there.

00:27:38.520 That was edited out.

00:27:39.340 First of all,

00:27:39.760 the real story here

00:27:40.840 is that someone

00:27:41.760 on the production

00:27:42.640 team,

00:27:43.260 presumably someone

00:27:44.040 on the production

00:27:44.420 team,

00:27:46.460 someone,

00:27:47.060 you know,

00:27:47.420 I guess we can't

00:27:49.120 know for sure,

00:27:49.760 but someone involved,

00:27:50.680 someone who had

00:27:50.980 access to the raw

00:27:51.680 footage leaked

00:27:53.840 that raw footage

00:27:54.860 from the Tucker Carlson

00:27:55.820 interview to the

00:27:56.540 left-wing press.

00:27:57.820 So to me,

00:27:58.200 that's the real

00:27:58.620 story.

00:27:59.960 And because that

00:28:01.780 doesn't happen.

00:28:03.320 That's like,

00:28:03.700 when's the last

00:28:04.080 time that you've

00:28:04.940 heard of that

00:28:05.240 happening?

00:28:05.520 And it's

00:28:06.860 the kind

00:28:07.240 of thing

00:28:07.700 you only

00:28:08.980 have to worry

00:28:09.600 about if

00:28:10.440 you're a

00:28:10.760 conservative.

00:28:11.520 Because it

00:28:12.040 never happens

00:28:12.620 the other

00:28:12.880 way.

00:28:13.720 But if you're

00:28:14.060 a conservative,

00:28:14.520 you always have

00:28:14.940 to worry about

00:28:15.500 some secret

00:28:16.180 leftist on

00:28:17.000 your crew

00:28:17.500 who will

00:28:17.780 just absolutely

00:28:18.520 betray you

00:28:19.500 because he

00:28:20.520 has no

00:28:20.880 ethical

00:28:21.160 standards.

00:28:23.540 Another

00:28:23.940 of the,

00:28:24.600 if we call

00:28:26.780 it advantages

00:28:27.420 that people

00:28:27.980 have on the

00:28:28.360 left is it's

00:28:28.980 like no

00:28:29.300 ethical standards,

00:28:30.000 no moral

00:28:30.360 standards at

00:28:30.860 all,

00:28:31.080 just do

00:28:31.320 whatever you

00:28:31.640 want.

00:28:32.400 I mean,

00:28:32.920 some leftist 1.00

00:28:33.540 rat leaked a 0.99

00:28:34.440 SCOTUS decision.

00:28:35.580 So obviously

00:28:36.240 there's nothing

00:28:36.780 that they won't

00:28:37.320 do.

00:28:38.540 And what is

00:28:39.120 the bombshell

00:28:39.660 here exactly?

00:28:40.580 That Tucker

00:28:40.960 Carlson cut

00:28:41.840 stuff from

00:28:42.380 the interview

00:28:42.760 because it

00:28:43.100 was off

00:28:43.400 topic or

00:28:43.920 unintelligible

00:28:44.400 or just

00:28:45.480 not relevant?

00:28:46.640 Wow.

00:28:47.940 Amazing.

00:28:48.760 I didn't know

00:28:50.020 they did that

00:28:50.420 with interviews.

00:28:51.660 I had no

00:28:52.060 idea.

00:28:52.880 A pre-recorded

00:28:53.620 interview,

00:28:53.940 I didn't know

00:28:54.200 that they

00:28:54.400 actually edited

00:28:55.060 it and took

00:28:55.560 stuff out and

00:28:56.320 tried to get

00:28:57.020 it down to a

00:28:57.860 reasonable length

00:28:58.520 so that it

00:28:58.860 would go out

00:28:59.280 on air.

00:29:00.860 Yeah,

00:29:01.320 if there's

00:29:01.880 a digression

00:29:03.120 into something

00:29:03.640 that's not

00:29:03.960 relevant or

00:29:04.480 interesting or

00:29:05.580 doesn't make

00:29:05.960 sense that they

00:29:06.540 cut that,

00:29:07.000 I have no

00:29:07.260 idea.

00:29:07.840 This is

00:29:08.600 amazing.

00:29:10.860 Bombshell,

00:29:11.420 devastating.

00:29:11.860 There are

00:29:11.980 people passing

00:29:12.520 this around

00:29:13.100 yesterday.

00:29:13.600 Of course,

00:29:13.820 leftists,

00:29:14.580 devastating.

00:29:15.680 This is

00:29:16.120 devastating.

00:29:17.420 Devastating for

00:29:18.040 who?

00:29:19.640 No one is

00:29:20.320 surprised by

00:29:20.900 this.

00:29:21.220 This is what,

00:29:21.740 of course,

00:29:22.860 now if I'm

00:29:23.380 doing the

00:29:23.620 interview with

00:29:23.980 Kanye and he

00:29:24.740 starts going

00:29:25.580 on about free

00:29:26.560 energy communities

00:29:27.340 or whatever,

00:29:28.100 which by the

00:29:28.460 way, 0.88

00:29:28.620 that's silly, 0.87

00:29:29.580 but that's also 0.95

00:29:30.260 what you hear on

00:29:30.860 the left all

00:29:31.300 the time.

00:29:32.040 In Saudi Arabia,

00:29:36.180 they're talking

00:29:36.760 about trying to

00:29:37.160 do something

00:29:37.480 like that.

00:29:37.920 They're building

00:29:38.280 a big community

00:29:38.940 and a giant

00:29:39.480 wall that's

00:29:40.520 going to be

00:29:40.820 whatever.

00:29:41.340 It's going to

00:29:41.580 have no impact

00:29:42.400 on the environment

00:29:43.180 allegedly.

00:29:44.540 I'd cut that

00:29:45.720 out too because

00:29:46.360 who cares?

00:29:48.200 No one cares

00:29:48.860 about that.

00:29:49.300 It's irrelevant.

00:29:50.060 It's a tangent.

00:29:50.460 As for Kanye

00:29:53.060 himself,

00:29:55.300 it's not

00:29:56.100 terribly complicated.

00:29:57.960 So all the

00:29:58.920 Kanye discourse,

00:29:59.860 I have to

00:30:00.260 confess,

00:30:01.720 I find

00:30:02.220 somewhat

00:30:02.640 annoying.

00:30:03.920 And I find

00:30:05.000 it somewhat

00:30:05.380 annoying on

00:30:06.460 all sides.

00:30:07.200 And I'll tell

00:30:07.520 you why.

00:30:07.840 Because Kanye

00:30:08.640 West,

00:30:09.460 he's a brilliant

00:30:11.140 artist.

00:30:13.000 He's brilliant

00:30:13.800 creatively.

00:30:15.220 And there's no

00:30:15.560 doubt about that.

00:30:16.200 but he's not

00:30:18.660 a philosopher

00:30:19.380 or some kind

00:30:21.320 of great

00:30:21.840 thinker when it

00:30:23.220 comes to

00:30:23.560 important social

00:30:24.300 issues.

00:30:25.080 I also don't

00:30:25.740 think he's crazy

00:30:26.380 as people claim.

00:30:27.840 He's going

00:30:28.200 through a

00:30:28.460 psychotic

00:30:28.820 episode.

00:30:29.460 I don't see

00:30:30.120 that.

00:30:30.900 I don't think

00:30:31.260 that's true

00:30:31.600 either.

00:30:32.760 I think he

00:30:33.360 just kind of

00:30:33.800 rambles.

00:30:34.880 And lots of

00:30:36.340 people ramble.

00:30:37.340 But because he's

00:30:38.100 a rich and

00:30:38.640 famous celebrity,

00:30:39.380 this has also

00:30:39.940 fed his ego.

00:30:41.940 And that's

00:30:42.660 also been part

00:30:43.320 of his brand

00:30:43.880 and his deal

00:30:44.640 for as long

00:30:45.540 as he's been

00:30:45.920 on the scene.

00:30:46.760 This immense

00:30:48.760 sort of ego.

00:30:50.500 And sometimes

00:30:52.560 in music it

00:30:53.400 can be kind

00:30:53.860 of funny.

00:30:54.740 And then other

00:30:55.180 times it leads

00:30:55.980 to stuff like

00:30:56.460 this.

00:30:57.120 But so he's

00:30:57.500 got, you know,

00:30:57.960 like many rich

00:30:59.100 and famous

00:30:59.420 people, so he

00:31:00.300 got the ego

00:31:00.860 and the ego

00:31:01.920 is fed.

00:31:02.480 And he

00:31:03.240 believes that

00:31:03.740 everything he

00:31:04.220 thinks and

00:31:04.640 says is

00:31:05.020 profound and

00:31:05.620 brilliant.

00:31:06.080 And he's

00:31:06.320 been encouraged

00:31:07.160 in that belief

00:31:07.960 by the yes

00:31:08.720 men around

00:31:09.200 him to think

00:31:09.800 that about

00:31:10.540 himself.

00:31:11.340 And so he

00:31:11.620 just keeps

00:31:11.980 babbling about

00:31:12.660 stuff.

00:31:13.100 And much of 0.92

00:31:13.900 it is silly 0.95

00:31:14.600 and doesn't 0.98

00:31:14.920 make a ton

00:31:15.260 of sense.

00:31:16.840 Sometimes it

00:31:17.420 actually is

00:31:17.920 profound.

00:31:18.520 I mean, he's

00:31:18.740 spoken powerfully

00:31:19.420 about the

00:31:19.780 pro-life issue.

00:31:21.400 And when

00:31:22.500 someone says

00:31:22.920 something powerful

00:31:23.600 and true about

00:31:24.140 pro-life issue,

00:31:24.760 there's nothing

00:31:24.980 wrong with the

00:31:25.560 rest of us

00:31:25.860 pointing it

00:31:26.260 out and

00:31:26.520 saying, well,

00:31:27.120 that's powerful

00:31:27.600 and true.

00:31:27.980 he had a

00:31:30.320 line also in

00:31:30.820 that Tucker

00:31:31.080 interview where

00:31:31.520 he said

00:31:31.800 something like

00:31:32.340 an artist

00:31:32.760 doesn't

00:31:33.120 explain himself

00:31:33.940 but a

00:31:34.280 leader does.

00:31:35.260 It's a very

00:31:35.680 simple,

00:31:36.340 interesting line.

00:31:37.380 I think it's

00:31:37.960 probably true.

00:31:40.100 Something to

00:31:40.700 think about.

00:31:41.600 So Kanye will

00:31:42.120 have moments

00:31:42.720 like that because

00:31:43.920 he's a smart

00:31:44.360 guy from a

00:31:45.380 creative perspective.

00:31:46.580 But again, he's

00:31:47.100 not a philosopher.

00:31:48.620 And that's fine

00:31:49.540 because most of

00:31:50.200 us aren't.

00:31:51.620 The problem is

00:31:52.560 just when we

00:31:53.140 pick through

00:31:53.720 every comment

00:31:54.720 this guy makes

00:31:55.480 even to the

00:31:56.180 point of

00:31:56.500 sifting through

00:31:58.620 raw footage of

00:31:59.840 an interview for

00:32:00.480 stuff that was

00:32:00.940 taken out,

00:32:02.020 looking for

00:32:02.980 deeper significance

00:32:03.940 and then elevating

00:32:05.860 him as either a

00:32:06.700 hero or a

00:32:07.400 villain.

00:32:08.580 Making him into

00:32:09.660 a philosopher

00:32:12.880 king or

00:32:14.100 Adolf Hitler.

00:32:16.800 Is it possible

00:32:17.640 that he's just

00:32:18.040 neither of those

00:32:18.700 things?

00:32:19.520 He's a musical

00:32:20.260 artist who's

00:32:20.940 made a lot of

00:32:21.460 interesting music

00:32:22.260 and he's got a

00:32:24.320 bunch of

00:32:24.620 other opinions

00:32:26.000 about things

00:32:26.660 and some of

00:32:28.120 those opinions

00:32:28.560 I agree with

00:32:30.940 and are

00:32:31.260 interesting and

00:32:32.200 some of those

00:32:32.600 opinions are

00:32:32.980 totally off the

00:32:33.460 wall.

00:32:34.940 Also, by the

00:32:35.300 way, I can

00:32:36.620 tell you this,

00:32:37.040 he's definitely

00:32:37.920 not the first

00:32:38.480 musical artist

00:32:39.080 who falls into

00:32:39.560 that category.

00:32:40.180 That would be

00:32:40.540 like all of

00:32:41.340 them who've

00:32:42.300 ever lived.

00:32:44.720 Being kind of

00:32:45.640 eccentric is a

00:32:47.600 common trait

00:32:48.960 among artists.

00:32:50.980 And having

00:32:51.780 opinions and

00:32:52.440 ideas that are

00:32:53.640 objectionable,

00:32:54.180 also common

00:32:55.340 trait among

00:32:55.720 artists.

00:32:57.280 The only

00:32:57.860 difference is

00:32:58.280 that now we

00:32:58.640 live in the

00:32:58.940 social media

00:32:59.460 era and

00:33:00.020 24-7 cable

00:33:00.820 news and

00:33:01.260 the internet

00:33:01.560 and so we

00:33:01.940 just like we're

00:33:02.660 surrounded.

00:33:03.340 If someone is

00:33:04.200 famous for one

00:33:05.120 thing, we have

00:33:06.340 access to their

00:33:07.600 thoughts on

00:33:08.180 everything else.

00:33:10.620 And so that's

00:33:11.320 part of what's

00:33:11.660 happening.

00:33:12.660 Speaking of

00:33:13.300 unintelligible,

00:33:14.060 here's MSNBC's

00:33:15.740 report about

00:33:16.640 John Fetterman.

00:33:17.520 This is from

00:33:17.960 MSNBC.

00:33:18.740 So this is them

00:33:19.580 telling us this,

00:33:21.020 which is

00:33:22.380 interesting.

00:33:22.760 Let's watch.

00:33:24.920 We had a

00:33:26.520 monitor set up

00:33:27.540 so that he

00:33:27.940 could read my

00:33:29.260 questions because

00:33:30.240 he still has

00:33:30.920 lingering auditory

00:33:32.060 processing issues

00:33:33.120 as a result of

00:33:34.200 the stroke,

00:33:34.800 which means he

00:33:36.140 has a hard time

00:33:37.000 understanding what

00:33:38.100 he's hearing.

00:33:38.800 Now once he reads

00:33:39.620 the question, he's

00:33:40.380 able to understand.

00:33:41.660 You'll hear he also

00:33:42.580 still has some

00:33:43.580 problems, some

00:33:44.720 challenges with

00:33:45.940 speech.

00:33:46.960 And I'll say,

00:33:47.920 Katie, that just in

00:33:48.820 some of the

00:33:49.200 small talk prior

00:33:50.420 to the interview

00:33:52.200 before the

00:33:52.840 closed captioning

00:33:53.700 was up and

00:33:54.580 running, it did 0.93

00:33:55.420 seem that he

00:33:56.740 had a hard time

00:33:58.240 understanding our

00:34:00.160 conversations.

00:34:01.100 So that again is

00:34:07.520 from MSNBC.

00:34:08.500 That is what they

00:34:09.120 are admitting

00:34:09.620 about John

00:34:10.400 Federer.

00:34:10.620 He doesn't

00:34:10.980 understand, he's

00:34:13.220 a hard time

00:34:13.900 tracking

00:34:14.220 conversations.

00:34:15.060 In order to

00:34:15.600 understand anything

00:34:16.220 he needs, he

00:34:17.580 needs closed

00:34:18.260 captioning.

00:34:18.940 He needs to

00:34:19.220 sit there with

00:34:19.720 a computer

00:34:21.100 program just to

00:34:21.860 understand.

00:34:23.280 And he's not

00:34:23.940 able to

00:34:24.260 communicate.

00:34:24.760 And under

00:34:27.800 most circumstances

00:34:29.040 someone who is

00:34:30.160 suffering this

00:34:31.080 way and going

00:34:31.520 through something

00:34:31.880 like this, it

00:34:33.140 would evoke

00:34:33.720 nothing but

00:34:34.100 sympathy and

00:34:34.580 pity.

00:34:36.220 There's nothing

00:34:36.800 people, especially

00:34:39.720 as they get older,

00:34:40.240 they have strokes,

00:34:40.880 this kind of thing

00:34:41.340 happens, terrible

00:34:42.080 thing.

00:34:42.720 Many of us have

00:34:43.200 seen this in our

00:34:43.620 own families.

00:34:45.680 It's just that

00:34:46.140 the problem is

00:34:47.540 that he's running

00:34:50.780 for political

00:34:51.140 office and has

00:34:51.760 chosen to keep

00:34:53.020 running for

00:34:53.380 political office.

00:34:54.760 And there's a

00:34:55.520 very good

00:34:55.920 chance, we

00:34:57.620 don't know

00:34:57.860 what's going

00:34:58.060 to happen

00:34:58.320 yet, but

00:34:58.620 there's a

00:34:58.980 very good

00:34:59.380 chance that

00:35:00.300 in Pennsylvania

00:35:00.780 they will

00:35:01.400 actually choose

00:35:02.480 to elect a

00:35:03.340 senator with 0.98

00:35:04.540 brain damage

00:35:05.360 who cannot

00:35:07.520 understand basic

00:35:10.760 human conversation.

00:35:12.360 And they're

00:35:12.960 going to put

00:35:13.320 him in

00:35:13.920 Congress.

00:35:16.880 So when that

00:35:17.640 happens, then

00:35:18.080 it becomes, then

00:35:18.700 it's something

00:35:19.180 that we do

00:35:19.960 have to obviously

00:35:20.920 be critical

00:35:21.960 about.

00:35:22.720 And it's

00:35:23.680 also, it

00:35:24.500 makes a lot

00:35:25.040 of the pity

00:35:25.500 and the

00:35:25.880 sympathy

00:35:26.220 evaporate

00:35:26.980 too, because

00:35:27.540 although John

00:35:28.960 Fetterman is

00:35:30.020 having trouble

00:35:31.260 communicating and

00:35:31.960 expressing himself,

00:35:33.620 he still, we

00:35:35.260 would assume,

00:35:36.280 has a grasp on

00:35:39.300 reality and

00:35:39.860 understand what's

00:35:40.340 going on around

00:35:40.780 him.

00:35:41.060 So he is

00:35:41.540 choosing to

00:35:42.260 remain in the

00:35:43.180 race, despite

00:35:45.040 knowing that he

00:35:45.860 is not competent

00:35:46.960 for it.

00:35:49.500 Knowing what his,

00:35:50.380 he knows what his

00:35:50.880 limitations are, he

00:35:51.700 obviously knows

00:35:52.200 them, and he

00:35:52.940 chooses to stay

00:35:53.820 in there, because

00:35:54.580 he's hungry for

00:35:55.140 power.

00:35:57.000 And who does it

00:35:57.740 remind you of?

00:35:58.260 It reminds you of

00:35:58.920 Joe Biden.

00:35:59.520 There's another

00:35:59.820 example.

00:36:00.320 In most cases,

00:36:00.900 someone who's

00:36:01.360 going through

00:36:01.840 senility, someone

00:36:03.580 who has dementia,

00:36:06.680 Alzheimer's, in

00:36:08.380 most cases, you

00:36:08.780 have nothing but

00:36:09.160 sympathy for that

00:36:09.600 person, obviously.

00:36:12.240 But here, Joe

00:36:13.140 Biden, and he

00:36:13.620 might be at a

00:36:13.980 point now where

00:36:14.360 he really has no

00:36:14.900 idea what's even

00:36:15.460 going on, but at

00:36:17.080 least originally, as

00:36:18.120 he was losing his

00:36:18.920 mental faculties, he

00:36:19.980 was aware of

00:36:20.500 that, and yet

00:36:21.580 ran for president

00:36:22.520 anyway, because he

00:36:25.460 cares more about

00:36:26.060 elevating himself and

00:36:26.960 his own power than

00:36:27.780 about the future of

00:36:29.340 the country.

00:36:30.080 So he's willing to

00:36:30.760 harm the country.

00:36:31.400 It harms the

00:36:31.840 country to have

00:36:32.820 someone who's lost

00:36:33.480 their mind in the

00:36:34.160 presidency, and he

00:36:34.660 was willing to do

00:36:35.380 that for his own

00:36:36.420 sake.

00:36:37.080 It also harms the

00:36:37.700 country to have

00:36:38.200 someone like John

00:36:39.220 Fetterman in the

00:36:40.100 Senate, and he's

00:36:43.120 willing to do that

00:36:43.800 because of his own

00:36:45.140 lust for power.

00:36:47.040 All right.

00:36:47.600 We've got to skip

00:36:50.620 ahead to this.

00:36:52.300 I haven't even read

00:36:52.940 this, but you know

00:36:54.300 it's BS.

00:36:55.520 Here's the USA Today

00:36:56.420 report.

00:36:58.140 Chick-fil-A has the 0.65

00:36:59.500 slowest drive-thru,

00:37:00.960 study says.

00:37:02.080 Another chicken

00:37:02.780 chain comes in

00:37:03.600 number one.

00:37:05.560 That's the claim.

00:37:07.780 It continues,

00:37:08.920 Chick-fil-A has the 0.65

00:37:09.720 slowest drive-thrus in

00:37:10.700 the country, a new

00:37:11.420 study that tracked the

00:37:12.140 10 major U.S.

00:37:12.960 fast food chains

00:37:13.520 revealed.

00:37:14.320 At Chick-fil-A, the 0.60

00:37:15.000 dreaded drive-thru wait

00:37:15.880 time is an average

00:37:17.580 of 8 minutes and

00:37:18.420 29 seconds, which

00:37:19.480 includes time spent

00:37:20.380 waiting in line and

00:37:21.060 then getting your

00:37:21.500 food, according to

00:37:22.000 a report by InTouch

00:37:23.080 Insight, an IT

00:37:23.980 customer service

00:37:24.720 company.

00:37:26.680 KFC, a Chick-fil-A

00:37:27.880 competitor, came in

00:37:28.740 the top spot with an

00:37:29.680 average of 5 minutes

00:37:30.460 and 2 seconds.

00:37:31.580 KFC?

00:37:32.980 What?

00:37:35.260 I ordered something

00:37:36.280 from KFC drive-thru

00:37:37.300 six years ago, and I'm

00:37:38.600 still waiting for it.

00:37:39.260 I still haven't gotten

00:37:39.920 it.

00:37:40.600 KFC has the worst

00:37:41.660 customer service of

00:37:42.620 perhaps any company

00:37:43.800 that has ever existed

00:37:45.260 on the planet.

00:37:46.500 KFC and Burger King

00:37:48.240 maybe are tied in

00:37:49.300 that regard.

00:37:50.880 Like, their employees

00:37:51.580 openly despise you for

00:37:53.340 being there.

00:37:53.940 They will go slower on

00:37:55.340 purpose.

00:37:56.360 On the rare occasion,

00:37:57.420 if you make the mistake

00:37:58.000 of going in, and no one

00:37:58.920 hardly ever does go to

00:37:59.860 these places, but if you

00:38:01.120 go into a Burger King or

00:38:02.120 a KFC, they will

00:38:03.060 actually, like, when

00:38:04.200 you're walking in, you

00:38:06.220 see the employees moving

00:38:07.020 around, and they're not

00:38:07.920 moving around very fast,

00:38:08.680 but they're moving around

00:38:09.260 faster than when you go up

00:38:10.520 and place the order.

00:38:11.400 Now they slow down on

00:38:12.520 purpose.

00:38:12.820 You order a bucket of

00:38:15.680 chicken, and you sit in

00:38:16.820 line for four and a half

00:38:17.920 hours, and when you get

00:38:18.520 to the window, the guy

00:38:20.500 opens it up, and he's

00:38:21.820 stoned out of his mind,

00:38:22.940 and he's out of uniform,

00:38:24.080 and somehow, though, he's

00:38:25.140 still mad, and then he 0.60

00:38:27.240 spits in your face and 0.94

00:38:28.520 hands you, like, an old 0.99

00:38:29.740 shoe with some ketchup on

00:38:31.100 it, and if you say,

00:38:32.720 well, that's not exactly

00:38:33.520 what I ordered, he'll just

00:38:34.960 roll his eyes, and there's

00:38:35.860 nothing you can do because

00:38:36.600 he's also the store

00:38:37.380 manager somehow.

00:38:38.080 Now, that is literally

00:38:40.340 the KFC experience.

00:38:42.020 Literally.

00:38:42.780 That exact thing has

00:38:44.280 happened to me.

00:38:45.940 So how can KFC have the

00:38:47.440 fastest drive-thru times?

00:38:49.480 Unless you mean it's

00:38:51.080 faster because there's

00:38:52.300 never anyone in the

00:38:53.380 drive-thru because KFC 0.99

00:38:55.420 sucks and everybody 0.99

00:38:56.120 knows it. 1.00

00:38:57.240 I bet that is what they

00:38:57.960 mean, so let's continue.

00:39:00.460 It says, but that doesn't

00:39:01.700 mean the chicken chain

00:39:02.360 sandwich, the chicken

00:39:03.580 sandwich chain, which is

00:39:04.680 closed on Sundays, is

00:39:05.640 completely slow or bad at

00:39:07.040 business, a caveat to the

00:39:08.760 study is that much of the

00:39:09.880 wait time is based on

00:39:10.960 popularity.

00:39:12.440 Right.

00:39:13.200 Chick-fil-A restaurants

00:39:14.020 average 4.74 cars in its

00:39:15.820 drive-thru, which is much

00:39:16.660 higher than the average of

00:39:17.520 2.76 cars among the 10

00:39:19.220 chains.

00:39:20.040 If the study were

00:39:20.580 considering quickest

00:39:21.300 average based on number

00:39:25.580 of cars, Chick-fil-A would

00:39:27.240 uniquely come in first with

00:39:29.120 an average of 1 minute and

00:39:30.240 47 seconds in that box.

00:39:32.140 Okay, well, there it is.

00:39:34.020 So the headline is

00:39:35.220 completely bogus.

00:39:37.040 I mean, how can you make

00:39:38.000 the headline Chick-fil-A is

00:39:39.560 the slowest and then when

00:39:41.120 you read the article, you

00:39:42.040 find out that no, actually

00:39:42.780 it's the fastest on

00:39:43.600 average.

00:39:45.860 Well, you do that because

00:39:46.760 you're the corporate media

00:39:47.700 and you lie about

00:39:48.640 everything.

00:39:49.080 This is how petty these 1.00

00:39:50.040 bastards are. 1.00

00:39:50.760 They just lie about 1.00

00:39:51.460 everything.

00:39:53.260 You had to lie about

00:39:54.300 this.

00:39:55.120 Even this you had to lie

00:39:56.320 about.

00:39:56.540 You couldn't just be

00:39:57.100 honest.

00:39:58.140 Chick-fil-A has the 0.65

00:39:58.960 fastest time on average.

00:40:00.180 That's the headline.

00:40:01.300 That's what that's all

00:40:01.980 that matters.

00:40:02.540 But in the corporate

00:40:06.540 media, they also see

00:40:07.100 everything as political.

00:40:08.100 So they have to find some

00:40:09.480 way to twist this into

00:40:10.660 anti-Chick-fil-A 0.91

00:40:11.760 propaganda.

00:40:12.860 They can't just report on 1.00

00:40:13.780 the stupid Chick-fil-A 1.00

00:40:14.520 story. 1.00

00:40:14.920 They can't just do that.

00:40:16.940 They have to find some way

00:40:18.140 to twist it because they see

00:40:19.480 Chick-fil-A as a political

00:40:20.360 enemy.

00:40:21.660 And they still see Chick-fil-A

00:40:23.140 as a political enemy, by the

00:40:24.100 way, even though the Chick-fil-A

00:40:25.460 CEO a couple of years ago, I

00:40:27.500 believe I had this right.

00:40:28.580 Wasn't he the guy who got on

00:40:30.440 his hands and knees on stage

00:40:32.400 and like washed the feet of 0.98

00:40:35.420 a black guy to expiate his 0.99

00:40:37.640 white guilt? 0.98

00:40:38.620 I'm pretty sure that that

00:40:39.560 happened.

00:40:41.040 And that happens, and yet

00:40:42.440 they still hate Chick-fil-A.

00:40:43.440 So that just shows you what

00:40:44.060 happens when you grovel to

00:40:44.760 the left.

00:40:45.960 So this is actually pretty

00:40:46.780 outrageous.

00:40:48.240 The study finds that Chick-fil-A

00:40:49.480 is the fastest, and the

00:40:50.600 headline says it's the

00:40:51.420 slowest.

00:40:52.500 All right.

00:40:55.060 But I did.

00:40:55.920 I think I pledged that I

00:40:56.660 would stop defending Chick-fil-A

00:40:57.760 ever since that groveling

00:40:59.200 display.

00:40:59.580 So I guess we just have to

00:41:01.100 move on.

00:41:02.080 Here's the comment section.

00:41:19.100 Yoha Pedro Voga says, I love

00:41:21.340 how Matt breaks every hope I

00:41:22.740 have left in humanity, and

00:41:24.120 then says, now let's get to

00:41:25.560 our five headlines.

00:41:26.580 That is generally the

00:41:27.540 pattern, I have to admit.

00:41:29.540 Timothy says, Matt makes

00:41:30.760 much stronger anti-pit bull

00:41:32.800 arguments than Knowles did

00:41:34.160 yesterday.

00:41:34.940 Well, I'm an anti-pit bull

00:41:37.080 guy from way back in the

00:41:38.420 day.

00:41:38.780 I've been in this movement

00:41:39.700 for a while, so maybe

00:41:41.700 that's part of the issue.

00:41:42.600 I don't know if maybe Knowles

00:41:43.680 is late to the struggle here.

00:41:48.580 Big Bad Briff says, I work

00:41:50.300 with dogs, and I agree with

00:41:51.700 Matt that they are a more

00:41:52.920 risky breed of dog.

00:41:53.880 I've met plenty of great

00:41:54.760 pitties over the years, and I

00:41:55.880 love those individual dogs.

00:41:56.980 I would hesitate to own one

00:41:57.900 because they have become so

00:41:58.820 overbred and so irresponsibly

00:42:00.780 bred, and that is more risky

00:42:03.080 to own a pit bull now.

00:42:04.400 That's because you can't know

00:42:05.460 what terrible traits have been

00:42:06.800 introduced into their bloodline.

00:42:08.000 Unless you go to a

00:42:08.540 responsible breeder, you can't

00:42:09.740 guarantee that the dog you're

00:42:10.600 getting is of good temperament.

00:42:12.360 It's a much different breed than 0.93

00:42:13.420 it was 50 years ago.

00:42:14.700 Pitties were not bred to be

00:42:16.040 aggressive to humans

00:42:16.840 originally.

00:42:17.440 It's sad because they can be

00:42:18.480 wonderful family dogs.

00:42:20.080 The breed has, in my opinion,

00:42:21.260 been irrevocably ruined,

00:42:22.760 though.

00:42:24.200 Yeah, it's unfortunate for

00:42:26.320 the pit bulls.

00:42:26.880 I agree.

00:42:29.020 And I also don't profess to

00:42:30.660 know all of the ins and outs

00:42:32.120 of the history of pit bulls.

00:42:34.900 Really, as you know, I'm a

00:42:36.760 basic common sense guy.

00:42:38.180 I'm a simple man in a lot of

00:42:39.120 ways.

00:42:40.000 And so I just look at the

00:42:41.880 information that's around me,

00:42:43.160 and I draw conclusions that I

00:42:44.920 think are pretty common sense

00:42:45.800 conclusions.

00:42:46.480 And so when I look around and I

00:42:48.060 see that almost every single

00:42:50.120 time someone is mauled to death,

00:42:51.180 it's a pit bull, and I look at

00:42:52.820 the statistics, it just tells me

00:42:54.400 everything I need to know.

00:42:56.140 And I am also interpreting this

00:42:58.160 information in the context of my

00:43:01.140 belief that human beings are of

00:43:06.120 infinite greater value than dogs.

00:43:11.820 And since I believe that, when I see

00:43:14.520 that there's one breed of dog that

00:43:15.900 poses a unique threat to humans, it's

00:43:18.160 easy for me to say, oh, well, we just

00:43:19.560 shouldn't own these dogs anymore.

00:43:21.180 And if anyone says, well, what about

00:43:22.200 the poor pit bulls?

00:43:22.920 I don't care.

00:43:24.420 I mean, I care more about the

00:43:25.640 people.

00:43:26.740 That's it.

00:43:29.580 So if we say you can't own pit

00:43:31.500 bulls anymore, this is one case

00:43:36.400 where it actually applies.

00:43:38.420 And sometimes this logic doesn't

00:43:40.000 work.

00:43:40.500 But when it comes to dogs and the

00:43:42.440 threat that they pose, in this case,

00:43:43.780 I could say that if saying you can't

00:43:47.240 own pit bulls anymore saves one more

00:43:49.800 kid from getting mauled to death, then I

00:43:51.560 think it was well worth it.

00:43:54.120 It's not even close in my mind.

00:43:59.040 Brad Benfield says, I love Matt, but

00:44:00.740 his argument against pit bulls is 0.80

00:44:01.720 completely based on ignorance and fear.

00:44:03.500 The irresponsible owners are the ones

00:44:04.840 with pit bulls that hurt others.

00:44:06.040 I have raised pit bulls for many years

00:44:07.480 and I've had almost 100 pit bulls.

00:44:10.460 100?

00:44:11.620 All shapes, colors, and sizes, and none

00:44:13.280 of my dogs ever bid anyone or any other

00:44:14.820 dog to the point of hurting them

00:44:16.160 permanently.

00:44:17.800 Well, that was quite a qualifier at the

00:44:20.260 end.

00:44:21.160 None of them have ever bit anyone to

00:44:24.140 the point of hurting them permanently.

00:44:28.100 So you've got two qualifiers.

00:44:29.940 None of them ever bid anyone to the

00:44:31.640 point of hurting them permanently.

00:44:37.100 How many of them have bit people, 0.99

00:44:38.580 though, is my question.

00:44:39.580 Of the 100, that's actually an

00:44:41.040 interesting case study.

00:44:41.860 So you are claiming that none of them

00:44:44.600 have ever permanently hurt somebody.

00:44:46.240 How many of them have hurt people,

00:44:47.700 though, of the 100?

00:44:49.140 I, you know, you tell me.

00:44:51.700 They are still strong and powerful

00:44:53.180 animals and like all animals, they have

00:44:54.560 animalistic instincts when provoked.

00:44:56.420 Irresponsible owners are the only reason

00:44:57.680 Matt is so scared of pit bulls.

00:45:01.200 Again, it's not that me, I don't walk

00:45:03.780 around in terror of pit bulls.

00:45:05.820 Now, if I had a rabid pit bull running 0.93

00:45:07.320 at me, I think I would be a little bit

00:45:09.360 disturbed by that.

00:45:10.100 But my fear is mostly for kids that

00:45:12.380 get mauled and, you know, elderly 0.85

00:45:13.640 people.

00:45:13.960 Those are most of the people that not

00:45:15.380 not only, but it's mostly people who

00:45:17.040 are especially vulnerable who end up

00:45:19.100 dying from these attacks.

00:45:21.520 So that's where my fear comes in.

00:45:23.980 And, you know, I already addressed this

00:45:25.620 irresponsible owner thing.

00:45:29.000 But just to reiterate,

00:45:30.420 I don't think it's true that all the pit bull

00:45:37.060 attacks can be explained by, quote, bad

00:45:39.420 owners.

00:45:40.540 I think it's just something that is said.

00:45:42.220 I don't know if there's a lot of evidence

00:45:43.160 for that.

00:45:44.380 You'd also have to explain what you mean by

00:45:45.920 bad owner, irresponsible owner.

00:45:47.380 But also, even if that is true, that doesn't

00:45:50.320 change anything as far as I'm concerned.

00:45:53.400 Because a lot of owners are going to be

00:45:54.700 irresponsible.

00:45:55.400 That's just the reality.

00:45:56.420 It's like the analogy I gave yesterday.

00:45:57.700 Rather than comparing pit bulls to guns

00:46:00.240 or inanimate objects, that comparison

00:46:01.700 doesn't work.

00:46:02.580 I think if you want to make analogies, the

00:46:04.200 analogy would be with other kinds of

00:46:05.660 animals.

00:46:06.780 And so there are many other kinds of

00:46:08.080 animals that you're not allowed to own.

00:46:10.000 You're especially not allowed to own in

00:46:11.820 communities and in neighborhoods because

00:46:16.380 of the danger that they pose.

00:46:18.080 Even though with many of those other

00:46:19.360 sorts of animals, if you're a very good

00:46:21.020 and responsible owner, you can probably

00:46:22.560 make those animals a lot less dangerous.

00:46:24.000 But the point is, I don't want to have to

00:46:25.560 trust that you are one of those

00:46:27.520 expert owners.

00:46:28.380 I shouldn't have to trust that.

00:46:30.280 If you're telling me you have to be an

00:46:31.620 expert and super responsible, or this

00:46:34.780 beast will eat someone's face, well, then 1.00

00:46:39.720 I'm going to say, well, then no one should

00:46:41.140 own that animal in a community because

00:46:43.360 it's just the reality that most people

00:46:45.520 are not going to be experts and

00:46:46.880 responsible.

00:46:49.500 All right.

00:46:50.520 K.

00:46:50.900 Rule C says, the trans dude in the 1.00

00:46:52.920 beginning looks a lot like that 0.96

00:46:54.020 troublesome trans dude that gave a 1.00

00:46:55.600 sonic worker a hard time in that viral 0.93

00:46:57.420 clip.

00:46:57.960 This is a very good catch.

00:46:58.740 I didn't notice this.

00:46:59.460 Now, so we played yesterday the

00:47:01.200 ABC Houston affiliate

00:47:02.900 news report about my speech at the

00:47:07.980 University of Houston, which is coming

00:47:08.940 up tomorrow.

00:47:09.700 And they're planning protests and Antifa

00:47:11.200 is going to show up.

00:47:11.880 And they interviewed some people on

00:47:14.100 campus who were upset about this.

00:47:15.260 They also interviewed a quote unquote

00:47:17.020 trans woman, which in other words,

00:47:19.480 a male who's complaining about this.

00:47:21.360 And I remember watching that clip

00:47:23.140 but I'm and I'm thinking like this

00:47:24.280 person looks familiar, but I don't

00:47:25.780 know from what.

00:47:26.940 And this is it.

00:47:27.600 So this is we'll play this clip

00:47:29.080 again just to remind you.

00:47:30.220 This is from

00:47:31.980 several months ago.

00:47:33.620 You have this person

00:47:35.500 who goes by Eden Torres,

00:47:37.160 I think now.

00:47:38.960 Going to Sonic

00:47:39.920 and just looking to pick a fight

00:47:42.540 with the Sonic manager

00:47:44.960 who's just trying to mind his own

00:47:46.120 business and do his job.

00:47:47.040 Let's watch this again.

00:47:50.020 Why does it matter?

00:47:51.660 Oh, it doesn't matter to you.

00:47:53.020 I'm sorry.

00:47:53.420 I mean, but to me, I'm a male.

00:47:58.260 Okay.

00:47:58.760 Okay.

00:47:59.460 So what are you?

00:48:00.660 So I can call you a sir or a man.

00:48:01.940 What are you?

00:48:02.940 What would you assume looking at me?

00:48:05.440 What are you?

00:48:06.400 What would you assume looking at me?

00:48:08.800 I assume that you're a man.

00:48:11.860 Okay.

00:48:15.260 Okay.

00:48:17.520 Thank you.

00:48:18.240 Whatever.

00:48:21.520 I love that clip.

00:48:22.880 Thank you for reminding me of that.

00:48:25.820 I love that clip

00:48:26.880 because it's just, you know,

00:48:28.760 what would you assume

00:48:29.760 based on looking at me?

00:48:31.000 And the guy's like,

00:48:31.660 you're a man?

00:48:32.560 That's what I would assume.

00:48:33.300 You asked me the question.

00:48:35.620 It's a great thing.

00:48:36.220 This Sonic manager

00:48:37.200 and this guy,

00:48:38.560 he's like,

00:48:39.060 he doesn't feel like dealing with this.

00:48:40.780 He's not even trying to stand on some,

00:48:42.480 he's not trying to make

00:48:42.940 some principled stand.

00:48:44.240 He's not interested in doing that.

00:48:45.320 He's just trying to get through the day.

00:48:47.360 And he deals with enough,

00:48:49.480 with enough a-holes 1.00

00:48:50.280 and scumbags like this. 0.99

00:48:53.540 So he even says, 1.00

00:48:54.540 I'll call you whatever you want me to call you,

00:48:55.780 but you got to tell me

00:48:56.300 what you want me to call you

00:48:56.940 because I don't know.

00:48:58.040 I don't know what you want.

00:48:59.940 But if you ask me,

00:49:00.980 what do you look like?

00:49:02.180 And then he flips the camera around

00:49:04.460 because we're supposed to see

00:49:05.740 what he looks like

00:49:06.560 and say,

00:49:07.540 well, how could you think

00:49:08.320 that that person's a man?

00:49:09.380 And it's like,

00:49:09.900 no, yeah,

00:49:10.220 that looks like a man

00:49:11.000 with a wig on.

00:49:11.400 That's what it looks like.

00:49:12.880 And you asked.

00:49:14.120 Don't ask if you don't want

00:49:14.920 the answer to the question.

00:49:17.380 It's one of the truths of life,

00:49:20.320 one of the rules of thumb

00:49:22.260 you should always carry with you

00:49:24.160 and keep in mind

00:49:24.760 is don't ask questions

00:49:26.420 you don't want an answer to.

00:49:29.500 Tried to get the sonic manager

00:49:31.200 fired over that

00:49:32.420 and I think unsuccessfully.

00:49:35.180 So that's the happy ending there.

00:49:36.580 Anyway,

00:49:37.220 that's the person

00:49:37.860 that is going to be involved

00:49:39.600 in protesting my speech.

00:49:42.380 And I would like to invite

00:49:44.520 Eden Torres

00:49:45.760 to the speech.

00:49:48.520 You know,

00:49:48.700 rather than standing outside

00:49:49.760 and protesting,

00:49:52.000 I want to invite you to come in,

00:49:53.520 sit down,

00:49:54.000 watch the film,

00:49:55.920 you know,

00:49:56.240 listen to the speech,

00:49:57.820 you can ask a question

00:49:58.520 in the Q&A.

00:50:00.080 Back in June of 2020,

00:50:01.400 Candace Owens

00:50:01.980 took to social media

00:50:02.820 to question the narrative

00:50:03.940 about George Floyd

00:50:04.900 and took a barrage

00:50:06.120 of insults as a result.

00:50:07.460 Celebrities insulted her,

00:50:08.560 GoFundMe deplatformed her. 0.56

00:50:10.260 As the attacks ramped up,

00:50:11.440 Daily Wire Plus

00:50:11.980 gave her a platform

00:50:12.760 to speak out

00:50:13.580 without fear of being silenced

00:50:15.040 and supported her investigation

00:50:16.680 into Black Lives Matter.

00:50:18.340 That organization

00:50:18.920 raised $80 million

00:50:20.080 through fundraising,

00:50:21.820 but no one ever asked

00:50:23.440 where the money went

00:50:24.200 until now.

00:50:25.560 Tonight,

00:50:25.920 Candace Owens

00:50:26.400 will reveal the truth

00:50:27.240 in her new documentary,

00:50:28.620 The Greatest Lie Ever Sold,

00:50:30.300 exclusively on Daily Wire Plus.

00:50:32.320 Because of our members,

00:50:33.160 we're able to create

00:50:33.780 a thriving alternative platform

00:50:35.440 and pursue the truth

00:50:36.340 wherever it leads.

00:50:37.720 Daily Wire Plus members

00:50:38.660 defeated the vaccine mandates

00:50:40.380 in the Supreme Court.

00:50:41.420 Daily Wire Plus members

00:50:42.100 helped us uncover

00:50:43.060 the Loudoun County

00:50:44.220 sexual assault cover-up.

00:50:45.960 Daily Wire Plus members

00:50:46.740 empowered me

00:50:48.680 to expose Vanderbilt's practice

00:50:50.200 of mutilating children

00:50:51.220 in the name of 0.96

00:50:51.780 gender-affirming care.

00:50:53.200 And just over the weekend,

00:50:53.960 Daily Wire Plus members

00:50:54.700 caused PayPal

00:50:55.500 to backtrack

00:50:56.360 on its Orwellian fines

00:50:58.000 for misinformation.

00:50:59.680 So there's a lot going on.

00:51:00.880 We're doing a lot.

00:51:01.640 You're doing a lot.

00:51:02.180 Together, we're doing a lot.

00:51:03.040 Remember, we are speaking for you

00:51:04.820 and fighting for your values, too.

00:51:07.200 Free speech is our greatest weapon.

00:51:08.560 And with the left's iron grip

00:51:09.820 on the culture

00:51:10.400 and the mainstream media,

00:51:11.940 somebody has to step up

00:51:13.160 and fill the void.

00:51:13.860 So if you're not yet a member,

00:51:14.860 go to dailywire.com

00:51:16.440 slash Walsh

00:51:17.280 to subscribe

00:51:17.880 and join us today.

00:51:19.320 And make sure you're joined

00:51:20.200 so that tonight,

00:51:21.160 you don't want to miss it,

00:51:21.880 8 p.m. Eastern,

00:51:22.680 7 p.m. Central,

00:51:23.700 you're going to be able

00:51:24.120 to watch Candace Owens' 0.93

00:51:25.340 new documentary,

00:51:26.600 The Greatest Lie Ever Sold,

00:51:28.260 exclusively on Daily Wire Plus.

00:51:30.820 Now let's get to our Daily Cancellation.

00:51:37.820 So today is the rare

00:51:39.120 but not unprecedented occasion

00:51:40.700 where a comment

00:51:41.780 interests

00:51:43.340 slash maybe annoys me enough

00:51:44.960 to migrate

00:51:45.940 from the comment section

00:51:47.160 into the Daily Cancellation.

00:51:48.780 A few days ago

00:51:49.240 during this segment,

00:51:49.820 we discussed the overall

00:51:50.800 failure of Christian leaders

00:51:52.280 in this country

00:51:52.780 to make any serious inroads

00:51:54.120 into the culture

00:51:54.760 and their nearly perfect record

00:51:56.520 of losing every major cultural fight

00:51:58.280 for the past many decades.

00:51:59.540 As we discussed,

00:52:00.420 some leaders prefer

00:52:01.540 to stand off at a distance

00:52:02.680 sort of sneering

00:52:03.960 at those of us

00:52:04.600 in the trenches

00:52:05.040 and telling us

00:52:05.620 how we might do a better

00:52:06.660 and holier job

00:52:07.980 of fighting the battles

00:52:08.800 that they refuse to fight

00:52:09.920 or have already surrendered.

00:52:11.340 So really,

00:52:11.820 the whole cancellation segment

00:52:12.780 was just my pale imitation

00:52:14.660 of Teddy Roosevelt's

00:52:15.820 man-in-the-arena speech,

00:52:17.220 I suppose.

00:52:19.060 You can go and listen to that

00:52:20.580 or read that

00:52:21.200 and it's much better,

00:52:23.160 much more eloquently put.

00:52:24.920 The segment generated

00:52:26.860 a lot of feedback,

00:52:27.600 some of it agreeing

00:52:28.140 with my commentary,

00:52:28.880 some of it critical,

00:52:29.420 and that's all fine.

00:52:32.340 This comment, however,

00:52:33.220 falls right in line

00:52:33.960 with the sort of thing

00:52:34.680 we hear from Christians

00:52:35.640 and Christian leaders frequently.

00:52:37.800 It is a sermon

00:52:38.860 about the need

00:52:40.180 to love our enemies.

00:52:41.740 We've talked about this

00:52:42.420 a little bit on the show

00:52:43.180 kind of glancingly

00:52:44.060 and I want to get into it

00:52:45.040 in more detail now.

00:52:47.160 But the sermon is always,

00:52:48.800 when we hear about it,

00:52:49.500 well, you need to love your enemies.

00:52:50.500 You're not loving enough.

00:52:51.200 It's incomplete

00:52:53.260 and lacking the necessary context.

00:52:56.060 But I'll read the comment

00:52:56.840 because it kind of sets us up

00:52:57.760 for this conversation,

00:52:58.500 I think, very nicely.

00:53:00.200 So here's the comment

00:53:00.800 from Casey Stewart.

00:53:02.120 It says,

00:53:02.780 Walsh's critique of Cooper

00:53:03.800 and others like him

00:53:04.500 is well taken,

00:53:05.060 at least in large part.

00:53:05.880 But where Cooper goes wrong

00:53:06.860 is in saying the problem

00:53:07.760 with Walsh

00:53:08.160 is that he is political.

00:53:09.060 That's not it.

00:53:09.840 The problem with Walsh

00:53:10.540 is that he does not

00:53:11.720 love his enemies.

00:53:12.780 He literally admits

00:53:13.660 to hating them

00:53:14.360 and that taints

00:53:15.420 his entire project.

00:53:16.520 It also makes things

00:53:17.360 more difficult

00:53:17.820 for those of us

00:53:18.340 who are really

00:53:18.780 in the trenches.

00:53:19.820 I'm an elder

00:53:20.320 in a Bible church

00:53:21.020 in the Portland area

00:53:21.800 taking a solid pastoral

00:53:23.220 stand for Christ

00:53:23.800 on these and other issues.

00:53:25.220 I, too, appreciate

00:53:25.860 the work Walsh

00:53:26.360 and the DW are doing

00:53:27.040 and I am not calling

00:53:27.780 for them to stop

00:53:28.500 or to try to add

00:53:29.280 Christian theology

00:53:29.980 to their public efforts.

00:53:30.920 In fact,

00:53:31.500 it would be better

00:53:32.040 if they would talk

00:53:32.580 about God less.

00:53:34.260 Then it might be easier

00:53:35.080 for people to hear me

00:53:35.900 when I say

00:53:36.500 I totally agree

00:53:37.200 with Walsh about this

00:53:38.060 but from an entirely

00:53:38.700 different angle.

00:53:39.800 That is true,

00:53:40.280 of course,

00:53:40.460 but it's hard

00:53:40.800 for people to see

00:53:41.420 because Walsh's

00:53:42.100 quasi-attachment

00:53:43.740 of his religion

00:53:44.580 to his political work,

00:53:45.560 which he does do,

00:53:46.300 implies that he and Jesus

00:53:47.880 are on the same page

00:53:49.060 on this

00:53:49.560 and they aren't.

00:53:51.000 My message

00:53:51.520 to sexually confused

00:53:52.600 or gender-confused people 0.99

00:53:53.860 is I would die for you

00:53:56.200 but I cannot lie for you.

00:53:58.320 That's not the message

00:53:59.000 of Matt Walsh

00:53:59.680 or the Daily Wire.

00:54:00.400 Admittedly,

00:54:00.840 if it were,

00:54:01.360 they would not have

00:54:01.880 the massive cultural footprint

00:54:02.980 that they do.

00:54:03.600 I get that

00:54:04.060 but it is not

00:54:05.320 a cowardly shrinking

00:54:06.380 from the issues 0.96

00:54:07.540 to choose to follow Jesus

00:54:08.940 in the real trenches

00:54:10.020 of pastoral work

00:54:10.940 rather than to use

00:54:12.060 a media kingdom

00:54:12.960 to launch culture war salvos.

00:54:14.840 If or when

00:54:15.920 Walsh goes to jail

00:54:16.760 over this,

00:54:17.220 it'll be a media circus.

00:54:18.340 When I do,

00:54:18.840 probably not if.

00:54:19.860 It won't have any

00:54:20.520 of the flashy media stuff

00:54:21.720 about it

00:54:22.100 but God willing,

00:54:23.100 it will be truly honoring

00:54:25.100 to my Lord Jesus.

00:54:28.680 Okay.

00:54:29.280 First of all,

00:54:30.040 you're probably correct

00:54:31.920 that if I ever go to jail,

00:54:33.400 it'll be a media circus

00:54:34.400 at least in conservative media.

00:54:37.740 Probably the liberal media

00:54:38.620 would ignore it

00:54:39.260 and I would hope

00:54:40.260 at least on the Daily Wire.

00:54:41.400 Like I hope it would make it,

00:54:42.680 if me going to federal prison

00:54:43.640 would make it above

00:54:44.360 the fold in Daily Wire,

00:54:45.380 I could probably trust that

00:54:46.180 at least.

00:54:47.260 So you're right about that

00:54:48.340 and that does give me

00:54:50.480 a certain advantage,

00:54:51.400 a certain visibility

00:54:52.080 that people who are,

00:54:53.160 as you say,

00:54:53.640 in the trenches

00:54:54.060 and don't have the platform

00:54:55.640 don't have

00:54:56.080 and I acknowledge that

00:54:56.660 all the time.

00:54:57.280 You know,

00:54:57.460 it's a lot harder

00:54:58.620 when you don't have,

00:54:59.080 I have advantages

00:54:59.940 with this kind of visibility

00:55:00.980 and leverage

00:55:02.280 and I try to use the leverage

00:55:03.080 not just for my own benefit

00:55:04.080 but for the benefit

00:55:06.680 of these issues

00:55:08.460 that we're fighting on.

00:55:10.220 But it's also true 0.89

00:55:11.140 that if anyone ever makes

00:55:12.640 good on their threat 0.99

00:55:13.760 to kill me, 0.99

00:55:15.020 that might be a media circus too 0.99

00:55:16.400 but that's not going to do me

00:55:17.100 a lot of good

00:55:17.540 because I'm going to be

00:55:18.260 just as dead.

00:55:19.840 But in any case,

00:55:21.860 you're throwing around

00:55:22.480 words like love

00:55:23.580 and hate

00:55:24.080 in the way that Christians 0.96

00:55:25.180 in our culture

00:55:25.740 often throw them around.

00:55:27.840 Use them without explaining

00:55:29.080 what you mean by them

00:55:29.960 and you use them,

00:55:32.500 at least you've used them here

00:55:34.140 it seems to me,

00:55:35.600 as a means to elevate

00:55:36.660 yourself above others.

00:55:37.780 So you say,

00:55:38.280 you don't love your enemies

00:55:38.980 like Jesus that I do,

00:55:40.200 I would die for my enemies.

00:55:41.780 That's what you declare.

00:55:43.640 Is that what loving

00:55:44.500 your enemies means though?

00:55:46.060 That you have to die for them?

00:55:47.700 Because if it does,

00:55:48.500 nobody walking this earth

00:55:49.400 can actually say for sure

00:55:50.600 that they love their enemies

00:55:51.420 because you simply cannot know

00:55:52.740 that you would really die for them

00:55:54.140 unless put in that position.

00:55:56.160 Which you almost certainly

00:55:57.220 never will be

00:55:58.200 and that makes your statement

00:55:59.660 seem like empty

00:56:00.700 self-aggrandizement.

00:56:03.220 As for me,

00:56:03.980 I'm happy to admit

00:56:04.960 that in many conceivable scenarios,

00:56:06.980 I would not die

00:56:08.340 for my enemies.

00:56:09.020 I mean,

00:56:09.320 I would not,

00:56:10.000 for example,

00:56:11.480 let's just say,

00:56:12.240 throw myself in front 1.00

00:56:13.120 of a bullet 0.89

00:56:13.740 or a speeding train

00:56:15.240 to save someone

00:56:16.580 who advocates

00:56:17.200 or perpetrates

00:56:17.840 the castration 0.92

00:56:18.460 and mutilation of children.

00:56:19.800 That doesn't mean 1.00

00:56:20.240 that I wish death on them. 0.99

00:56:21.240 I don't. 1.00

00:56:21.640 It doesn't mean

00:56:22.200 that I'd be the one

00:56:22.760 firing the bullet.

00:56:23.620 I, of course, wouldn't.

00:56:24.660 It simply means

00:56:25.280 that I would not leave

00:56:26.160 my own kids fatherless

00:56:27.660 in order to martyr myself

00:56:28.820 for someone who harms children.

00:56:30.320 Indeed,

00:56:30.580 I would be sacrificing my life

00:56:31.940 in order to leave

00:56:32.640 my own children

00:56:33.360 more vulnerable

00:56:34.300 to the predations

00:56:35.420 of the very person

00:56:36.120 I have saved.

00:56:36.760 Now,

00:56:38.340 you might call that brave.

00:56:39.600 I would call it reckless

00:56:40.420 and irresponsible.

00:56:41.920 It's also not a requirement

00:56:43.540 of loving our enemies,

00:56:44.660 nor does failing

00:56:45.860 to martyr yourself

00:56:46.860 for someone 0.93

00:56:47.300 mean that you hate them.

00:56:49.320 There may be some,

00:56:50.600 you know,

00:56:50.860 there could be some scenarios

00:56:51.860 where I would put myself

00:56:52.780 in harm's way

00:56:53.240 for those I consider an enemy.

00:56:54.380 I'm not saying

00:56:54.760 that that wouldn't happen ever.

00:56:56.100 It's possible

00:56:56.720 that you could dream up

00:56:57.380 something like that. 0.66

00:56:58.300 All of this is a useless

00:56:59.340 game of hypothetical,

00:57:00.400 however,

00:57:00.580 which is what

00:57:01.460 the love your enemies

00:57:02.700 stuff often turns into.

00:57:04.400 It just turns into hypothetical.

00:57:05.560 It doesn't really mean anything.

00:57:06.440 No one explains

00:57:06.900 what they mean by that.

00:57:08.680 What about hatred?

00:57:10.760 Well,

00:57:11.080 I have never advocated

00:57:12.160 hating your enemies

00:57:13.040 as a principle.

00:57:14.180 I have admitted

00:57:14.680 that I struggle

00:57:15.320 not to hate those

00:57:16.360 who inflict unimaginable

00:57:17.660 cruelties on children,

00:57:19.120 but my struggle

00:57:20.320 in that regard

00:57:20.960 stems from the love

00:57:22.240 I have for the victims.

00:57:24.960 I would suggest

00:57:25.920 that if you cannot relate

00:57:27.180 at all to that difficulty,

00:57:28.400 then it's because

00:57:29.320 you do not love

00:57:30.140 the victims enough.

00:57:32.580 And yet,

00:57:32.880 I'm at fault in this too

00:57:33.800 because in this confusion,

00:57:35.180 I'm also at fault

00:57:35.800 because when I say

00:57:36.700 struggle not to hate,

00:57:37.860 I don't really mean hate.

00:57:39.200 I mean something more like

00:57:40.260 struggle not to be

00:57:41.240 totally overcome

00:57:42.360 and blind with rage.

00:57:45.020 That's more what I mean.

00:57:46.820 That temptation may be

00:57:48.200 a problem in its own right.

00:57:49.400 It is,

00:57:49.840 but it's not the same thing

00:57:51.220 as hatred.

00:57:52.160 So here's the part

00:57:52.740 where we should probably

00:57:53.340 get around to

00:57:53.880 defining our terms.

00:57:55.300 In the immortal words

00:57:56.520 of whoever wrote

00:57:57.720 that 90s song,

00:57:58.840 what is love?

00:57:59.700 And that person argued

00:58:00.660 that love simply means

00:58:01.820 that, baby,

00:58:03.160 you don't hurt me.

00:58:04.420 Yet, that is a negative

00:58:05.420 vision of love.

00:58:07.040 Aquinas had a positive vision.

00:58:08.180 He said that love

00:58:08.720 is to will the good

00:58:09.480 of the other.

00:58:10.680 It means that you want

00:58:11.500 what is best for someone

00:58:12.500 and you will actively work

00:58:14.020 to help them accomplish

00:58:15.200 that.

00:58:16.380 What is good?

00:58:16.880 What is best for them?

00:58:18.160 So what is hatred then?

00:58:19.020 Well, to hate someone

00:58:19.680 as follows is to will

00:58:20.700 the bad for them.

00:58:22.640 Does that mean

00:58:23.360 that you hate someone

00:58:24.200 if you want them

00:58:24.760 to be punished?

00:58:25.460 If you want them

00:58:26.020 to reap the consequences

00:58:27.160 of their actions?

00:58:28.400 If you want them

00:58:29.180 to suffer for what

00:58:30.080 they've done?

00:58:30.700 If you use harsh language

00:58:31.840 about them?

00:58:32.360 If you make them

00:58:33.000 feel bad?

00:58:33.560 No, that's not necessarily

00:58:34.680 hatred at all

00:58:35.220 because suffering

00:58:36.000 and punishment

00:58:37.680 are not bad

00:58:39.320 when they are deserved.

00:58:41.740 They're actually good

00:58:42.860 in that case.

00:58:43.900 They are good for society

00:58:45.140 and they are good

00:58:45.780 for the person suffering.

00:58:46.640 A desire for evil

00:58:49.500 to be punished

00:58:50.520 is born out of an impulse

00:58:52.900 towards justice

00:58:53.860 not hatred.

00:58:55.700 That's the crucial fact

00:58:56.740 that many Christian churches

00:58:57.640 get wrong

00:58:58.160 or at least don't spend

00:58:59.400 enough time explaining.

00:59:01.100 There is nothing wrong

00:59:02.260 with wanting justice.

00:59:04.060 In fact,

00:59:04.480 there is something very wrong

00:59:05.680 with not wanting it enough.

00:59:08.420 I think that's the real flaw

00:59:09.500 in many Christians today.

00:59:12.040 An encounter with injustice

00:59:13.500 should provoke within you

00:59:14.900 a deep desire

00:59:16.060 for the injustice

00:59:17.020 to be righted,

00:59:18.120 for it to be corrected,

00:59:19.800 which means correcting

00:59:20.960 those who inflict it.

00:59:22.760 Now,

00:59:22.900 I know it sounds scandalous

00:59:23.760 to the modern Christian ear

00:59:24.860 to hear me say

00:59:25.500 that we as Christians

00:59:26.280 can even desire

00:59:27.180 suffering for others,

00:59:28.200 but there is no justice

00:59:29.360 without suffering.

00:59:30.840 If you want a killer

00:59:31.620 to go to prison,

00:59:32.760 you want him to suffer

00:59:34.180 because prison is suffering.

00:59:35.640 That's what it is.

00:59:36.340 That's part of the point of it.

00:59:37.940 Of course you want that

00:59:38.680 for his own sake

00:59:39.540 and for society's sake,

00:59:41.280 for justice.

00:59:42.940 I mean,

00:59:43.100 even something like

00:59:43.580 putting your child

00:59:44.320 in timeout

00:59:44.920 for hitting his sister

00:59:45.660 is inflicting suffering.

00:59:47.440 It's a very, very,

00:59:48.260 very small amount of it

00:59:49.460 for a very, very small infraction,

00:59:51.540 but he will suffer

00:59:52.600 in a very small degree

00:59:53.460 because if he's not phased

00:59:54.640 at all by the punishment,

00:59:55.580 then there's no point in it.

00:59:57.540 Indeed,

00:59:57.960 you can actively kill somebody 0.95

00:59:59.580 without hating them. 0.97

01:00:01.580 Somebody comes into your house

01:00:02.520 in the middle of the night,

01:00:03.500 comes into my house

01:00:04.440 in the middle of the night, 1.00

01:00:04.760 I'm going to blow his brains 1.00

01:00:05.760 out of his head 1.00

01:00:06.240 and it will be an act of love,

01:00:07.900 love for my family,

01:00:08.900 love for my children.

01:00:09.780 As for the dead man,

01:00:10.660 he got what was due to him.

01:00:11.900 He reaped the consequences

01:00:12.840 of his actions.

01:00:13.600 He got justice,

01:00:14.420 whether he liked it or not,

01:00:15.380 and we can assume

01:00:16.040 that he did not.

01:00:17.660 So if you can cause

01:00:18.580 someone to suffer,

01:00:19.300 if you can punish them, 1.00

01:00:20.180 if you can even kill them 1.00

01:00:21.080 in some cases 1.00

01:00:21.660 without hating them,

01:00:22.480 then what does hatred mean?

01:00:23.680 Hatred must be a desire

01:00:25.220 for a person's ultimate ill.

01:00:29.180 It is to prefer 0.99

01:00:30.200 that they be damned 0.88

01:00:31.280 than redeemed.

01:00:32.060 It is to wish

01:00:32.760 that they remain evil

01:00:34.100 so that they can be

01:00:35.580 condemned for it.

01:00:37.620 It is to want them

01:00:38.800 to remain in sin.

01:00:41.840 I don't know what hatred is

01:00:42.940 if it's not that.

01:00:44.960 And there's a lot of that

01:00:45.840 kind of hatred

01:00:46.220 in this culture.

01:00:46.780 There's a lot of

01:00:47.320 wanting people

01:00:48.120 to remain in sin,

01:00:49.140 encouraging it even.

01:00:52.020 Now I know this is a word,

01:00:52.980 hatred,

01:00:53.200 that gets used

01:00:53.840 by Christians very often

01:00:54.760 to condemn those

01:00:56.140 who are too harsh,

01:00:57.220 too militant,

01:00:57.880 too aggressive.

01:00:58.360 But again,

01:01:00.280 they never explain

01:01:00.820 what they mean.

01:01:02.140 Here I am attempting

01:01:02.900 an explanation.

01:01:04.520 And I cannot see

01:01:05.220 that hatred means

01:01:06.040 anything but

01:01:06.740 desiring a person's

01:01:09.020 ultimate,

01:01:09.620 final,

01:01:10.480 spiritual destruction.

01:01:12.620 If that's what it means,

01:01:13.680 then I can say for certain

01:01:14.520 that I do not hate anyone

01:01:15.860 because I want

01:01:17.260 every one of my enemies

01:01:18.480 to see the error

01:01:19.380 in their ways

01:01:20.000 and repent.

01:01:20.460 I want them all

01:01:21.040 to this very day.

01:01:22.000 I want them this moment

01:01:22.960 to have a change of heart

01:01:23.860 and abandon their ways.

01:01:25.600 I want every single person

01:01:26.720 who harms children,

01:01:27.800 who abuses and mutilates them,

01:01:29.760 to see themselves

01:01:30.660 for the monsters

01:01:31.300 they've become

01:01:31.840 and turn away from it.

01:01:32.660 That's what I want

01:01:33.280 very much.

01:01:33.880 So yes,

01:01:34.240 I love my enemies.

01:01:35.540 I don't want them

01:01:36.320 to be my enemies.

01:01:37.120 I want them to stop

01:01:38.160 inflicting evil

01:01:38.960 on the world

01:01:39.540 and on the innocent.

01:01:40.540 But as long as

01:01:41.360 they're doing such things,

01:01:43.500 I believe we are called

01:01:44.800 as Christians

01:01:45.260 to oppose them

01:01:46.160 relentlessly,

01:01:47.580 aggressively,

01:01:49.280 even angrily

01:01:50.280 at times.

01:01:51.620 We should react

01:01:52.400 to them

01:01:52.760 and their deeds

01:01:53.420 in a way

01:01:53.860 that is fitting

01:01:54.580 and proportional.

01:01:55.920 We should act

01:01:56.780 with urgency.

01:01:58.960 We should respond

01:02:00.140 to heinous evil

01:02:01.120 and barbarism

01:02:01.900 in a manner

01:02:02.580 that communicates

01:02:03.960 just how heinous

01:02:05.320 and barbaric it is. 0.92

01:02:07.400 This is where Christians 0.99

01:02:08.440 are largely failing, 0.58

01:02:09.440 I think.

01:02:10.640 We don't have much

01:02:11.120 of a problem

01:02:11.640 of Christians 0.65

01:02:12.960 hating evildoers 0.80

01:02:14.020 too much

01:02:14.640 or at all.

01:02:16.160 The real problem

01:02:16.980 in our culture

01:02:17.520 and what has put us

01:02:18.360 in the hole

01:02:18.720 that we're in

01:02:19.160 is that too many Christians 1.00

01:02:20.780 fail to love virtue

01:02:22.240 and goodness enough

01:02:23.200 and hate evil enough.

01:02:27.540 They're not passionate

01:02:28.580 enough about protecting

01:02:30.080 the innocent.

01:02:32.520 Indifference,

01:02:33.140 apathy,

01:02:33.600 moral cowardice,

01:02:34.580 these are our most

01:02:35.700 prominent flaws,

01:02:36.680 I would say.
