00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, much has been said about the rise of hate and bigotry in America,
00:00:04.420 but most of the people lamenting this alleged phenomenon are themselves huge proponents of
00:00:08.980 bigotry and racism, so long as it's anti-white racism. We have some egregious examples for you
00:00:13.520 today. Also, leftist justices on the Supreme Court embarrassed themselves during oral arguments over
00:00:18.680 a freedom of religion case. A former Twitter moderator talks about the trauma his job caused
00:00:23.380 him. I reveal the hidden brilliance behind Time Magazine's Entertainer of the Year and King and
00:00:29.640 Queen Victim, Harry and Meghan, get ready to release their new docu-series because all they want is
00:00:35.240 privacy. We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:01:43.380 Well, during all the recent controversy surrounding Kanye West and his statements,
00:01:48.880 we have heard quite a lot about the dangers of demonizing and scapegoating entire groups of
00:01:54.200 people. We've heard condemnations of hate and of hateful language. We've heard that there's a
00:01:59.040 rising tide of hate and prejudice and that it's getting worse by the day, especially now that
00:02:04.200 Elon Musk has taken over Twitter. Allegedly, that's made it all worse. And it's true, of course,
00:02:09.840 we shouldn't demonize groups. That part is true. I agree with the people who warn against such
00:02:16.680 bigotries. The problem is that many of those people do not agree with themselves. And if they
00:02:23.600 are wondering why their anti-hate sermons, their homilies of love and togetherness tend to fall on
00:02:29.680 deaf ears as the alleged hate tide continues to rise despite their protests, they may want to take
00:02:35.680 a long look in the mirror. The fact is that the very system now thrown into hysteria about the
00:02:42.320 dangers of fanatical racism has itself fanatically promoted racism for many years and continues to do
00:02:49.640 so today. Now, you can call this whataboutism. I don't really care. I am unapologetically saying
00:02:56.580 whatabout. Whatabout is a perfectly valid argument that needs to be brought up very often. So whatabout,
00:03:03.900 the openly genocidal racism that the corporate media, Hollywood, academia, the left generally
00:03:09.720 pushes without apology and without shame every single day? What about it? Are we ever going to
00:03:15.740 talk about it? Are any of the eager denouncers ever going to get around to denouncing that?
00:03:21.800 Well, I know the answer, but I asked the question anyway, rhetorically. Last night,
00:03:25.420 thanks to a repost from Chris Ruffo, a video went viral of a Rutgers professor named Brittany Cooper
00:03:31.160 speaking at an online conference hosted by a popular website called The Root. Now,
00:03:36.140 this video is actually from a year ago, went viral back then, but, and I may have even mentioned it on
00:03:41.860 the show back then, but the ensuing outrage, almost entirely coming from conservatives on social media,
00:03:47.900 amounted to absolutely nothing. Cooper was not fired, was not suspended, was not denounced,
00:03:54.160 or even lightly reprimanded. Nothing. She's still teaching college students today.
00:03:58.580 This in spite of the fact that she was on camera preaching the most virulent form of anti-white
00:04:04.620 racism imaginable. Just watch.
00:04:09.060 I think that white people are committed to being villains in the aggregate, right? The real sort of
00:04:14.060 issue here, and I, you know, I've heard people sort of say it is one, I think that white people
00:04:18.720 viscerally fear. It's not that white people don't know, right, what they have done. They know.
00:04:23.940 They fear that there is no other way to be human, but the way in which they are human,
00:04:30.200 which is to, so, you know, like you talk to white people and whenever you really want to have a
00:04:34.200 reckoning about it, they say stuff like, you know, it's just human nature. If y'all had all of this
00:04:39.140 power, you would have done the same thing, right? And it's like, no, that's what white humans did.
00:04:45.080 White human beings thought there's a world here and we own it. Prior to them, black and brown people
00:04:51.800 have been sailing across oceans, interacting with each other for centuries without total
00:04:56.800 subjugation, domination, and colonialism. We have seen, uh, what a, what a show this iteration
00:05:04.780 of treatment of other human beings means. And that my hope is that we would do it differently,
00:05:14.100 you know, in the moments when we have some power.
00:05:18.680 White people are committed to being villains, she says. Now put any other group in that sentence
00:05:24.060 and she loses her job. Black people are committed to being villains. Asian people are committed to
00:05:31.700 being villains. Gay people are committed to being villains. Jews are committed to being villains.
00:05:37.780 Literally any other group at all in that sentence. And it becomes the sort of statement that her career
00:05:44.740 cannot survive. And we haven't even heard the worst of it yet. Not even close. Perhaps more troubling
00:05:51.280 given her profession is the hallucinatory, hallucinatory version of world history that
00:05:56.860 Brittany Cooper, who refers to herself, by the way, as Professor Crunk offers up. And we haven't heard the
00:06:01.460 worst of that yet either. She says that black and brown people were selling, sailing around the world
00:06:06.720 and interacting with each other without wars of conquest, without subjugation, without colonization.
00:06:13.180 There's nothing to say about that claim, except that it is totally, absurdly, ridiculously false.
00:06:20.240 There is not a shred of truth to it. Whichever groups qualify as black or brown, especially those
00:06:26.140 groups that lived in North America or Africa, what we know for certain is that they were slaughtering
00:06:31.360 and enslaving each other without mercy since time immemorial. European empires did not invent the
00:06:38.020 idea of subjugating a foreign land and turning it into a vassal state. And they didn't even practice
00:06:43.880 the most brutal form of the practice. This was utterly commonplace across the entire globe for millennia.
00:06:51.360 So Professor Crunk is either so dumb as to qualify as medically brain damaged, or she's a hateful,
00:06:58.040 lying propagandist, or perhaps some combination of both. And that's what I suspect. She continues by
00:07:03.380 offering her solution to the white problem, her final solution, we might say. Listen.
00:07:10.820 That's the thing that white people don't trust us to do because they are so corrupt. You know,
00:07:16.280 their thinking is so morally and spiritually bankrupt about power that they can't let, you know,
00:07:22.180 they fear viscerally, existentially letting go of power because they cannot imagine that there's
00:07:28.480 another way to be. It is either that you dominate or you are dominated. And isn't it sad that that is
00:07:35.660 spiritually who they are and that they can't imagine a sort of more expansive notion of the world?
00:07:40.520 The thing I want to say to you is we got to take these out. But I know, but like, we can't say that,
00:07:45.560 right? We can't say, like, I don't believe in a project of violence. I truly don't.
00:07:50.220 Because I think in the end that our souls suffer from that. The world didn't start when white people
00:07:55.660 arrived in America and tried to tell all the rest of us how things were going to go. There were people
00:08:02.160 out here making worlds, Africans and indigenous people being brilliant and, you know, libraries
00:08:08.800 and inventions and, you know, vibrant notions of humanity and cross-cultural exchange long before
00:08:15.420 white people showed up being raggedy and violent and terrible and trying to take everything from
00:08:18.980 everybody. So we hear again her fantasy land alternate retelling of world history, adding in
00:08:25.240 the detail that Africans somehow made it to North America before Europeans. She then imagines that
00:08:30.760 indigenous people had libraries, which would be difficult considering that most of the tribes
00:08:35.720 didn't even have a written language, much less that they have books. And she says that they lived
00:08:39.840 peacefully until raggedy white people introduced violence to the Western hemisphere. And she's right.
00:08:44.980 North America was entirely free of violence before first contact with Europeans. Free of violence if
00:08:51.280 you don't count scalping, cannibalism, human sacrifice, rape, pillage, murder, war, slavery,
00:08:57.360 conquest, etc. Other than all of that, it was quite peaceful, really. Not that Professor Kronk is an
00:09:03.400 advocate of peace. She says herself that she really wants to take these mother effers out.
00:09:08.180 That they are corrupt and she wants to take these mother effers out. Again, just imagine black people
00:09:14.880 are so corrupt. We need to take these mother effers out. Gay people are so corrupt. We need to take
00:09:19.900 these mother effers out. Jews are so corrupt. We need to take these mother effers out. Any of those
00:09:26.180 statements and you are done forever. You're never getting another job. You're getting deplatformed from
00:09:31.780 everything. You're losing your bank accounts. You are losing everything. Unless you put white people
00:09:39.100 in there. The only reason she stopped short of fully promoting such a strategy is that she can't
00:09:45.680 say that, she says. And besides, she's worried that exterminating white people might be injurious to
00:09:50.660 the souls of their exterminators. And she's right about that second part, but not the first. In fact,
00:09:55.760 she can say that she wants to murder all white people. She did say it. And she suffered no consequence
00:10:01.000 whatever for doing so. Later in the video, she speaks wistfully and hopefully about the coming
00:10:07.040 end of whiteness and assures herself and the audience that, you know, eventually white people
00:10:12.440 will be extinct and non-white people can get back to living in peace without the, quote, inconvenience
00:10:18.060 of their presence. It is, again, in summary, a genocidally hateful and racist diatribe. She is
00:10:26.700 calling for, or at the very least, fantasizing openly about the extermination of an entire race
00:10:34.140 of people. And she presented this to a media publication on video and suffered no consequence
00:10:41.280 for it. You can, in fact, in this country, openly call for the extermination of white people without
00:10:47.080 the slightest worry that any legal, professional, or reputational damage will result.
00:10:52.360 Just ask Nick Cannon. He is currently, as he has been for several years, the host of
00:10:58.900 The Masked Singer on Fox. He's had high-paying, high-profile jobs on national TV for the better
00:11:04.940 part of this century. And yet, infamously, he has openly called white people savages and
00:11:11.880 postulated that their lack of, quote, melanin makes them subhuman. Let's just take a trip down
00:11:17.720 memory lane and watch this again. It's from a couple of years ago. And here's what Nick Cannon
00:11:21.800 said. Melanin comes with compassion. Melanin comes with soul that we call it. We call it
00:11:27.580 soul. We soul brothers and sisters. That's the melanin that connects us. So the people that
00:11:31.800 don't have it have, are, are a little, and I'm going to say this carefully, are a little
00:11:39.000 less. And, and, and where the term actually comes from, because I'm bringing it all the
00:11:44.240 way back around to, to minister Farrakhan, to where they may not have the compassion or
00:11:50.240 the, the, when they were sent to the mountains of Caucasus, when they, when they didn't have
00:11:55.560 the power of the sun, that was, that the sun then started to deteriorate them. So then
00:12:02.260 they're acting out of fear. They're acting out of low self-esteem. They're acting out of a deficiency.
00:12:13.260 So therefore the only way that they can act is evil. The only way they can, they, they have
00:12:18.040 to rob, steal, rape, kill, and fight or flight in order to survive. Exactly. So then these people
00:12:24.580 who didn't have what we had, and when I say we, I speak of the melanated people, right? They had to
00:12:31.360 be savages. They had to be barbaric. They had, because they're in these Nordic mountains, they're
00:12:37.540 in these rough, uh, torrential environments. So they, they're acting as animals, right? So they're
00:12:44.520 the ones that are actually closer to animals. They're the ones that are actually the true savages.
00:12:54.580 Acting as animals, says the guy that has like 10 kids with six different women or something.
00:12:59.740 Um, after that podcast interview, Nick Cannon did for a short period, lose his job, which he
00:13:05.780 quickly regained and has gotten back to his TV career without any issue. But the momentary slap
00:13:10.840 on the wrist only came because during the same podcast, he said that black people are quote,
00:13:15.900 the true Hebrews, which is an incoherent talking point. We've also heard from Kanye West also not
00:13:21.020 nearly as vicious or hateful as what he said about white people generally.
00:13:24.580 So Cannon was chastised for the true Hebrew, Hebrews comment. Uh, he even brought briefly
00:13:29.540 lost his job for it, but there was never any chastisement, never any denouncement from any
00:13:34.800 notable person or organization for literally calling all white people subhuman animalistic
00:13:40.420 savages. Because that's the kind of thing you're allowed to say, not just allowed to say,
00:13:47.820 but rewarded for saying anti-white bigotry is not simply tolerated. It is celebrated. Professor
00:13:54.480 Kronk and Nick Cannon aren't living in a vacuum. These, these viciously anti-white sentiments can be
00:14:00.220 heard from celebrities, from college professors, from government officials, and many others.
00:14:04.520 The sentiments are expressed out loud, enacted into law. They are set as policy embedded into the
00:14:10.340 system. The Biden administration gave out COVID relief according to a racial hierarchy
00:14:14.180 with whites at the bottom, where I suppose these savage animalistic villains belong.
00:14:19.940 As far as interracial violence go, you know, because we hear that, uh, all these, it's all
00:14:24.320 the hate leading to violence. Well, okay, let's talk about that. Twice as many white people fall
00:14:29.240 victim to interracial homicide as committed. And that's just homicides. We haven't even, you know,
00:14:35.020 we've seen many videos of groups of people in one race stomping the hell out of an individual
00:14:40.420 of another race, but the victim in those videos is almost always white. We have rarely, if ever,
00:14:46.220 seen it go the other way. Certainly not recently. What this tells us is that anti-white racism is
00:14:54.200 permissible in our culture. Uh, it is the only totally permissible bigotry that remains because,
00:15:00.320 and because it is permissible, it is also dangerous. It is the most dangerous. You know, there, there,
00:15:08.060 there are other kinds of bigotry that exist, but if society generally condemns a form of bigotry,
00:15:15.800 then the danger that bigotry can pose is very much mitigated because it is condemned by almost
00:15:23.300 everyone and certainly by almost all the most powerful people. Somehow it goes with anti-white racism
00:15:29.140 and, and, and nobody who speaks out against racism, bigotry, and, and yet neglects to specifically
00:15:36.340 denounce anti-white racism should be taken seriously. That's what this comes down to.
00:15:45.180 If you're wondering why nobody can take you seriously, it's because you see what we just
00:15:50.480 played there and you either don't care or you applaud. And that's why. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:16:00.140 The hard year in the economy means that, uh, essential practical gifts will be in high demand
00:16:11.240 this year. Give the most essential gift of all America's best meat and seafood from Good Ranchers
00:16:16.520 with discounts on orders of five boxes or more. You can save on gifts for the whole family. When you
00:16:22.060 give a box of Good Ranchers, you're giving them a true steakhouse experience with 100% American USDA
00:16:29.040 prime cuts of, uh, beef, chicken, and seafood, other meat delivery companies, and even your local
00:16:33.980 grocery store. What they're going to do is they're going to import lower quality meat from overseas.
00:16:38.280 Don't give your friends and family less than America's best this year. Not sure what to order?
00:16:42.140 Well, Good Ranchers now offers gift cards so you can let your friends and family members, uh,
00:16:45.800 choose for themselves, or you can give the gift of a subscription and inflation-proof someone's
00:16:50.860 meat budget for them. Go to GoodRanchers.com, use code Walsh to check out to get $35 off your gift.
00:16:56.360 That's GoodRanchers.com, code Walsh for $35 off. Good Ranchers, American meat delivered.
00:17:03.580 As we mentioned yesterday, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a religious liberty case
00:17:07.900 challenging Colorado's so-called anti-discrimination laws, which require Christian business owners to
00:17:12.560 participate in gay weddings. Uh, the challenge is being brought by a Christian web designer who
00:17:17.480 doesn't want to be forced to design a website to, uh, advertise or facilitate a gay wedding. Um,
00:17:23.920 and the oral arguments were, were pretty interesting. So I want you to, we'll play a couple of clips.
00:17:28.720 I want you to listen first to Kentonji Brown Jackson. And, uh, she, she manages to rope the film
00:17:34.520 It's a Wonderful Life into some kind of strange hypothetical, which is meant to prove that
00:17:40.540 Christian business owners shouldn't have religious liberty. And, and, uh, it's, you know, it's,
00:17:45.860 it's hard to connect these dots, but she tries it. Let's listen.
00:17:47.840 Hurley did the exact same analysis to say, is the parade organizers otherwise,
00:17:53.580 but Hurley was a private association. It wasn't a public business. What I'm asking you
00:17:58.280 is I have a public business. I'm a photographer. My belief is that, you know, uh, I'm doing,
00:18:04.600 it's a wonderful life scenes. That's what I'm offering. Okay. I want to do video depictions
00:18:09.720 of It's a Wonderful Life. And, um, I, knowing that movie very well, I want to be authentic.
00:18:15.620 And so only white children and families can be, uh, uh, uh, customers for that particular product.
00:18:23.840 Everybody else can, I'll give to everybody else. I'll sell them anything they want,
00:18:27.740 just not the It's a Wonderful Life depictions. Um, I'm expressing something, right? For your purposes,
00:18:34.360 is that, that speech. What about, uh, what's the other step? It's speech. And I can say
00:18:40.520 anti-discrimination laws can't make me sell the It's a Wonderful Life package to, uh, non-white
00:18:47.800 individuals. In the same way, I would say, first of all, in the same way that this court,
00:18:53.960 when there is a message and a status and it's overlapping, the court would say that message
00:18:59.000 wins in that instance. So I don't think that the message. So I don't have to sell it to white.
00:19:02.540 I don't think that that message is in that hypothetical.
00:19:06.060 Okay. Uh, we'll talk more about that in a second. So there's one other clip I want to play, but, uh,
00:19:10.400 so she's, she's imagining here a scenario where a photographer is doing some holiday photos
00:19:15.600 and has different packages available, uh, which, you know, as photographers do. And, uh, but this
00:19:21.280 photographer has, has the It's a Wonderful Life package, but you have to be white. So maybe there's
00:19:27.300 a black family that says, oh, the It's a Wonderful Life, uh, photos. We'd like to take some, sorry,
00:19:32.540 uh, you gotta be white for those. Uh, it's only for white people. Can I interest you with the,
00:19:35.940 uh, in the Black Panther package? That's, uh, that would be more suitable for you. This,
00:19:39.440 this is the, it's the situation she's imagining because right, that's, that's going to happen
00:19:44.820 somewhere. Um, and she also talks about this, this, this, this concept of a public business.
00:19:53.400 I don't even know what that means. It's it. We're talking about a private business.
00:19:57.160 What do you mean public business? They've invented like this category. It's a public
00:20:02.420 business. Well, it's public in the sense that the business exists in the public.
00:20:09.080 Okay. So what she's postulating is that, is it what would qualify as a private business?
00:20:15.080 If a web designer is, it's, she, she has her business. And as far as I know, it's just her
00:20:21.200 running. So it's a one woman show web designer. And if that doesn't qualify as a private,
00:20:27.160 private business, then what the hell does? Is it a business that is not open to anyone in the
00:20:33.580 public? So it's a business, but you won't sell anything to anyone or provide any services to
00:20:40.240 anyone. It's that sort of business. Now, just because you are a business that offers a good
00:20:46.440 or service doesn't make you public. It's still a private business because it is run by a private
00:20:51.640 individual. Um, anyway, we'll talk more about that, but there's another hypothetical she offers
00:20:58.820 and, uh, she has another sort of interesting business proposal. Uh, let's listen to this.
00:21:05.420 She is implicitly saying, you know, by selling this, I'm going to be, uh, violating my own beliefs.
00:21:13.480 Um, so let me just ask you another quick hypo. So I, I'm trying to understand the extent to which
00:21:18.900 this matters that she's a speaker, um, as opposed to a restaurant. So I sell food and one line of
00:21:25.520 products that I make is from scratch for particular customers that are based on my grandmother's
00:21:31.620 cherished family recipes. My dearly departed grandmother was clear that she only wanted to
00:21:36.840 provide this kind of nourishment for people who share our same religious heritage. So I call these
00:21:42.860 products, grandma Helen's Protestant provisions. And I sit with each customer who comes in and I hear
00:21:50.120 about their faith and their family, and I customize the recipe for them after having this discussion.
00:21:56.960 So the food is not expressive, right? I'm not speaking in my food, but I am trying to convey
00:22:03.500 that only certain people, um, get to partake in this product. Can I do that consistent with the
00:22:11.160 first amendment or not? No. And, and in this situation, as you said, the, in terms of a
00:22:16.100 caterer, the caterer is not engaging in speech. Okay. So there's, there's the business proposal
00:22:21.620 right there. So we've heard enough of that. Uh, I kind of liked that business idea, you know,
00:22:26.700 I'm fine with it. So you got a, a restaurant, you know, a chef and offers different, a different
00:22:34.260 menu items depending on your religion. So this is, these are the Protestant provisions. And if you're
00:22:39.840 sitting down, the waiter goes up to you, asks you about your faith. And if you reveal yourself to
00:22:45.600 be Protestant, then you get access to the whole menu. If you're Catholic, then, uh, they like will
00:22:51.060 give you a, an unleavened wafer. They say, well, this is what you're allowed to have because you're
00:22:55.260 Catholic. Uh, and if you're, if you're atheist, they, uh, invite you to the back in the kitchen and
00:23:01.400 they, they, uh, they have a, uh, they burn you at the stake actually back in the kitchen. Um,
00:23:06.200 they're not going to serve you then. It's like, they're not going to burn you and then serve you.
00:23:09.320 I'm saying they burn you at the stake and then they would, uh, uh, you know, maybe bury you in
00:23:13.480 the back or something. So that's, that's the business idea that she's, because that's totally
00:23:18.060 realistic, right? That would definitely happen in reality. This is the reason why I like these
00:23:28.540 hypotheticals. And there, there are many others like this. There were other hypotheticals that, uh,
00:23:32.760 Kentonja Brown-Jackson offered, uh, we've seen this on cable news when they're coming up with all
00:23:37.080 these, well, if we allow this, then what if this other thing happens? It shows how desperate they
00:23:43.740 are to come up with some kind of slip, some sort of plausible slippery slope scenario.
00:23:51.340 They are desperate to come up with something and they can't do it. They've had many shots at this
00:23:57.940 thing. And they can't come up with any actually plausible slippery slope scenario for it. We start
00:24:03.700 with giving basic religious freedom to private business owners. We give basic religious freedom
00:24:10.040 to a woman who designs websites. And then next thing you know, total chaos ensues. They're not able to
00:24:18.220 bridge that gap. They can't explain it. And so they end up with all these hypotheticals of things that
00:24:22.000 would never, ever really happen. And it is very possible also to separate the religious liberty
00:24:32.940 cases from all of these others, because there's a crucial distinction. We talked about it yesterday.
00:24:39.840 And in my mind, the crucial distinction is not even that it's based on religious conviction. That's
00:24:45.040 got nothing to do with it. The crucial distinction is that in all of the, all of the, the, the real life
00:24:51.260 cases, whether it's the ones that have ended up in front of the Supreme court or other ones that
00:24:55.200 haven't made it to the Supreme court and all of the real life cases, they are centered around gay
00:25:00.360 weddings. And it is about, it's about private business owners. It's about government entities
00:25:06.860 trying to force private business owners to participate in an event that they object to.
00:25:14.380 That's the difference. It's a very clear distinction. So it is easy to delineate between
00:25:23.140 a web designer doesn't want to, doesn't want to make, she doesn't want to be a participant in this
00:25:28.200 event and making a website for the event is, is to participate in it to some extent. She doesn't
00:25:33.060 want to do that. It's easy to distinguish between that and someone who says, oh, we're not going to,
00:25:36.640 we're not going to serve you any food at all because of your religious convictions or you can't
00:25:44.540 get these, uh, these photographs taken because you're black. Okay. You know, if someone is sitting
00:25:51.460 down in your restaurant and they're just trying to have lunch, that's not you part and you serve them
00:25:57.140 food. That's not you participating in some kind of formal event, unless you want to call lunch itself
00:26:02.080 a formal event. Um, the photographer taking pictures of a black family, that's not them
00:26:10.120 participating in some kind of event. However, if, if the black family or white doesn't matter the race
00:26:16.340 of the family, if a family said to them, we want you to come to this actual event that we're putting
00:26:22.220 on, we want you to take photographs at this event. Then of course the photographer should have every
00:26:26.980 right to say, well, what is the event? I'm not just going to like, I want to know about the event.
00:26:30.340 And if it's an event that I object to, whether you agree with my objections or not, obviously you
00:26:35.220 don't, cause you're the one throwing the event. If I object to the, that I'm not going to, I don't
00:26:38.300 want to be a part of it. And it wouldn't just, there are actual plausible scenarios. So the left,
00:26:46.160 they're trying to come up with their slippery slope and it's completely ridiculous. They have all
00:26:50.180 these things that would never happen. The slippery slope on the other end is, is actually plausible.
00:26:54.920 So if we say that, uh, the cake baker or the photographer or the web designer doesn't have
00:27:03.780 the right to say no to the gay wedding, what happens next? What's the slippery slope there?
00:27:09.620 Well, you don't even need a slippery slope because we've, we've already extinguished religious
00:27:13.700 liberty. So that's, that's not even a slope. We don't have to project about when that will
00:27:18.800 happen. We've already done it, but we can see where it would go next. For example,
00:27:25.160 like we talked about yesterday, divorce parties are a real thing that actually happen. And people,
00:27:32.020 and people have invitations for them. They make cakes for them. They have, they have photographs
00:27:36.820 taken. Should you be required to go and partake in a divorce party because you own a business?
00:27:43.800 What if it's some, what if you're a, a, a liberal business owner and some, one of these alleged far
00:27:53.420 right extremist groups comes along and says, Hey, we're having a big celebration. We need you to come
00:27:58.440 take pictures. We need you to bake a cake. Should you be required to be a part of it?
00:28:03.960 I mean, what if it's a speaking of far right extremists, you know, pro-lifers, far right,
00:28:11.380 dangerous, extreme, that's what we are. We're far right, dangerous extremists. Well, what if you're
00:28:14.780 a pro, a pro abortion, uh, Baker and, and, uh, Roe v. Wade was just overturned. And I, and I come to
00:28:23.960 you and I say, I need you to make a cake customized cake. And it needs to say on it, um, uh, hooray for
00:28:31.700 the end of abortion or the hooray for the end of, of Roe. Should I be able to compel you to make that
00:28:39.580 cake? If you say, I don't believe in that. I don't want to, I don't want to make that. You can,
00:28:43.280 there's a million other bakers out there. Go to one of them. Nope. You have to do it. You are forced
00:28:47.500 to do it. Get back there, slave and make it. But very, very easy to, to distinguish between these
00:28:55.840 two. But you shouldn't even need to, because as I said before, it's, it's, uh, you know,
00:29:04.340 the, the real answer, and this is not the answer the Supreme Court is going to, is going to arrive
00:29:08.200 at, but the, the correct answer is, is actually kind of the absolute position that you should be
00:29:15.180 able to deny service to anyone for whatever reason you want. And that should be it. Freedom
00:29:20.840 of association. You know, you shouldn't be required as a private business owner to provide a
00:29:25.100 serve, good or service to anyone, whatever your reason is for not wanting to. And if you have truly
00:29:30.740 awful, bigoted reasons, if you do hang up the sign that says no blacks allowed, no one is going to do
00:29:36.740 that. No business would actually do that. But if there was one in the whole country that did,
00:29:43.000 they would be out of business in 30 minutes because of it.
00:29:45.560 All right. So the White House has responded to questions about the Twitter files that were
00:29:53.060 released showing that the, um, Biden campaign and other political operatives had information
00:29:58.380 about Hunter Biden's laptop suppressed on Twitter at the behest, at their behest rather. So Karen
00:30:03.480 Jean-Pierre says that, uh, well, she says this was inappropriate and she issued a formal apology
00:30:08.440 from the White House. Just kidding. Of course, this is what she actually said.
00:30:11.200 Is it the White House view that these decisions were made appropriately in light of what has
00:30:17.140 come out? Which decisions? By whom? By Twitter. By Twitter on? Okay. So look,
00:30:24.160 we see this as a, uh, an interesting or a coincidence, if I may, that, uh, uh, that he would so haphazardly,
00:30:33.040 uh, Twitter was so haphazardly pushed this distraction, uh, that is a, that is a full of, uh, old news,
00:30:39.540 if you think about it. Um, and, uh, at the same time, Twitter is facing very real and very serious
00:30:45.660 questions, uh, about the rising volume of anger, hate and antisemitism on their platform and, uh, how
00:30:52.860 they're letting it happen. And, uh, you know, the president said last week, more leaders need to speak
00:30:58.700 out and reject this. And, uh, it's a very alarming and very dangerous.
00:31:04.960 Old news. She says it's old news. It's old news that we rigged the election by suppressing relevant
00:31:10.140 information and lying about it. Her defense is that, yeah, it happened, but it was, you know,
00:31:15.160 it's old news. We already knew about that. It's ancient history a couple of years ago.
00:31:20.000 And what is this rising hate claim? We hear it again, rising hate, but as we talked about in the
00:31:26.620 opening, there is rising hate in this country, but it's not the kind of hate she's talking about.
00:31:30.900 It's not the hate that she would acknowledge. How do you measure hate on Twitter? Cause she,
00:31:35.460 they're specifically telling us that there's more hate, there's more hate on Twitter than there was
00:31:40.540 before Musk took over. How do you measure that? What is the, what's the, uh, what, what,
00:31:45.860 what units of measurement do we use to measure hate on a social media platform? How do, how exactly do we
00:31:53.280 do that? Well, there's a, if you, if you measure on Twitter now, there's a, there, there are 89 hate
00:31:58.640 units, whereas before there was a 32. When was the utopian time of no hate or low hate on Twitter?
00:32:08.260 When was that exactly? Give me the, give me the years when that was the case. We can go back and,
00:32:13.480 and, uh, scroll through some, some tweets to see if that's actually true. Speaking of Twitter, I also
00:32:18.940 wanted to play this for you. Uh, maybe you've seen some of these clips. Uh, Yoel Roth is a former
00:32:24.440 Twitter official, former head of the trust and safety division. And he was at a conference
00:32:29.280 recently about, uh, conversations on democracy in the digital age, where he talks about the
00:32:36.500 justification, talks about many things. Um, one of those things is the justification for banning Trump
00:32:42.740 from social media. And, uh, it all has to do with the trauma that he and other members of, uh, of the
00:32:49.240 Twitter staff suffered. Let's listen to that. Donald Trump. That one, I don't think was a mistake.
00:32:55.300 January 6th. So it, it starts on the 6th, but it also starts prior to that. That's correct. In
00:33:01.220 the weeks leading up in the weeks between election day and January 6th, Twitter moderated hundreds. I think
00:33:09.300 the, the, the final number ended up was like 140 separate tweets from just at real Donald Trump
00:33:15.560 that violated various policies. Yes. He was good at that. Integrity policy. Every morning it was a new
00:33:21.220 tweet. Much of it was recirculating some of the same narratives and all of it was focused on the
00:33:28.200 ultimately false claim that the 2020 election had been stolen. And so we're going into the events of
00:33:34.900 the 6th. And there's that context. There's the centrality of his account. So you let him get
00:33:40.860 away with it for a long time. In other words. Well, we'd been enforcing on it, right? So we
00:33:45.520 restricted the tweets. We put warnings on them. You couldn't like them. You couldn't retweet them.
00:33:50.300 Um, but we didn't ban him because it was a relevant part of a moment in American politics,
00:33:58.000 right? The events of the 6th happen. And, um, if you talk to content moderators who worked on
00:34:04.820 January 6th, myself included, the word that nearly everybody uses is trauma. We, we experienced
00:34:11.300 those events, not some of us as Americans, but not just as Americans or as citizens, but as people
00:34:17.020 working on sort of how to prevent harm on the internet, we saw the clearest possible example of
00:34:23.520 what it looked like for things to move from online to off. We saw what was, we saw the way that rhetoric
00:34:30.320 about a stolen election was being mobilized on sites like the Donald dot win. Sure. We saw the
00:34:36.060 trafficking of this content. Terrible, uh, very, very tragic story there. So forget about, you know,
00:34:40.900 forget about, uh, young men storming the beaches of Normandy on D day. Um, that's not, you know, that's,
00:34:48.500 that's not the kind of trauma we're talking about in modern, in the modern world. People that are suffering
00:34:53.880 trauma are those who were content moderators on January 6th. That's the story. Our grandparents
00:35:00.840 told stories of world war two. Uh, but for our generation, we will be telling our grandchildren
00:35:07.080 stories of, um, you know, moderating content on January 6th. Traumatized. No, you're not traumatized.
00:35:16.140 First of all, you have no trauma. You're just a huge, fragile, overgrown baby. That's what you are.
00:35:21.340 You are an emotionally manipulative child. You know how to define trauma just for the record.
00:35:28.360 What is trauma? Well, here's how, cause I looked it up. Here's how the American psychological
00:35:32.580 association defines it. Not that I see them as a much of an authority on most things these days,
00:35:36.640 but here's what they say. If you're curious, trauma is an emotional response to a terrible
00:35:41.720 event, like an accident, rape, or natural disaster. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are
00:35:48.560 typical longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships,
00:35:53.720 and physical symptoms like headaches or nausea. Now you notice, first of all, that, uh, trauma is
00:36:00.120 associated with events that you were a part of. So you had a terrible accident. You were raped. Uh,
00:36:06.780 you were involved in a natural disaster. And that's where the trauma comes from. Now we have people
00:36:12.100 talking about being traumatized by things that they were nowhere in the vicinity of.
00:36:17.420 And are you having flashbacks now because of news reports about January 6th? Are you experiencing
00:36:21.980 headaches and nausea two years out still today because some people trespassed in the Capitol
00:36:27.640 while you were thousands of miles away in San Francisco? Is that so really?
00:36:33.220 And besides, how was your personal trauma, even if you were traumatized, which you weren't,
00:36:42.140 how is that a reason to de-platform someone? Your own personal trauma is, means that you can
00:36:47.480 de-platform someone. Uh, he also talked a little bit about Babylon Bee and how they ended up being
00:36:55.340 de-platformed. Let's hear some of that. Okay. Babylon Bee, which is what got him to buy the thing,
00:37:01.700 I think. That's the, that's right. The one which is, which was not particularly funny. The Babylon
00:37:07.180 Bee's man of the year is Rachel Levine. Not funny. Yeah. Um, and, and you can ask. I didn't agree
00:37:13.920 they should have taken that down, but go ahead. You know, it's interesting. Uh, it's interesting
00:37:18.460 to think about what the competing tensions around that are. And I, I want to start by acknowledging
00:37:23.360 that, um, the targeting and the victimization of the trans community on Twitter is very real,
00:37:28.600 very life-threatening and extraordinarily serious. Um, we have seen from a number of Twitter accounts,
00:37:36.660 including libs of TikTok, notably that there are orchestrated campaigns that particularly are
00:37:42.220 singling out a group that is already particularly vulnerable within society. And so, yeah, not only is
00:37:48.600 it not funny, but it is dangerous and it does contribute to an environment that makes people
00:37:54.420 unsafe in the world. So let's start from a premise that it's fucked up, but then again, let, let's look
00:38:01.420 at what Twitter's written policies are. Twitter's written policies prohibit misgendering, full stop.
00:38:08.460 And the Babylon Bee, in the name of satire, misgendered Admiral Rachel Levine.
00:38:14.660 Twitter- Satire.
00:38:15.220 Nominally, but it's still misgendering. Okay. And, you know, you can, there can be a very long and
00:38:22.360 academic discussion of, of satire and sort of the lines there. Interestingly, uh, Apple tried to tease
00:38:29.080 out this question of satire and political commentary in their own guidelines, which I think are, are also
00:38:34.000 fraught. But, you know, we landed on the side of enforcing our rules as written. And that's how it got
00:38:40.380 bought by Elon Musk, just in case you're interested. Um, he was mad about that. I remember that.
00:38:44.560 Yeah. We will never be a thriving society or civilization, as long as people like that
00:38:51.820 are running things. And as it stands right now, that is that people like that are running things.
00:38:59.500 These, uh, emotionally fragile, utterly narcissistic, um, cry bullies.
00:39:11.340 And, and also, do any of them strike you, either one of the people on the stage, do they strike you
00:39:17.380 as, uh, experts on comedy? It's not funny. That's not funny at all. If you have, if you have an idea
00:39:26.960 for a joke, are you going to run it by those two? And of course, it's also not true. So what it's,
00:39:33.640 it's being confirmed here. And there are many other cultures, you don't have to play them all.
00:39:36.220 So you've probably seen enough. It's being confirmed. What we already knew, which is that
00:39:39.720 this was, that they were moderating, they're moderating things, uh, intensely ideological,
00:39:45.700 their moderation policies, and also based on emotion, based on the emotional whims of whoever
00:39:50.700 happens to be, um, in charge of moderating. So that's, that's what's being, that's what's
00:39:56.840 being confirmed there. We should also say for the record that this nonsense about it's a life
00:40:01.120 threatening. The trans people are targeted by, by, on Twitter, it's threatening their lives.
00:40:06.900 You got to explain that to me exactly. How, how is your life threatened by a tweet?
00:40:11.800 Now your life can be threatened by actual death threats, but the thing about the trans community
00:40:17.820 on Twitter is that they are much more likely to be sending the death threat than to be receiving it.
00:40:22.400 I mean, far in a way, you want to talk about abuse and hate and all that. The most abusive,
00:40:31.000 hateful, vicious group of people on Twitter. And in fact, across the entire country are trans activists,
00:40:39.300 not even close. Of course they're going to be vicious and hateful. I mean, think about how,
00:40:46.940 how much they've been empowered. And these are mostly the, mostly men.
00:40:53.020 You know, it's mostly men identifying as women who are the most absolutely vicious
00:40:59.520 because they've been empowered in this way. They've already been empowered to appropriate
00:41:04.500 the identities of women. They've already been, you know, they, they've, they've declared that
00:41:10.700 they want to act out their fetishes in public and, and, and, and the entire culture has bowed before
00:41:17.060 them in that regard. Already narcissistic going in. And so we've only, we've only just pumped up
00:41:26.920 their egos even more and their, their sense of entitlement and, and all of that. And that comes
00:41:34.000 through in the way that they operate on Twitter. All right. I gotta, I, I, I do need to mention
00:41:39.620 this because this is the most important story of the day. And every day I'm reminded that I am an
00:41:43.320 old man and I'm getting older. And this is my reminder for today. CNN has the report, global pop
00:41:50.060 sensation. Blackpink have been chosen as Time Magazine's 2022 entertainer of the year, making
00:41:56.900 the four woman band, the second K-pop artist to earn the title after BTS in 2020. Selected by YG
00:42:04.680 Entertainment, a big South Korean label that screens performers for star quality and trains them
00:42:09.160 intensively. The quartet, Jenny, Jesu, Lisa, and Rosé found international stardom quickly after their
00:42:15.840 2016 debut. Their first LP, the album, sold more than 1 million copies in less than a month after
00:42:21.340 2020 release. Now I've honestly never heard of this group. Um, they are entertainers of the year,
00:42:25.960 global sensations. I've never heard of them. I've been deprived of this sensational music.
00:42:32.520 I'm pretty upset about that. I gotta be honest. They, they named their first album album. So that
00:42:38.920 shows you that these girls are creative geniuses. And I'd like to learn more about them, learn more
00:42:43.760 about these artists. So I thought that we could together listen to what is, I guess, their biggest
00:42:47.680 hit to this point. It's called Pink Venom. So Blackpink, Pink Venom. They certainly seem to enjoy
00:42:53.680 the color pink. What else do they have to say? And I was really hoping that we could listen to some,
00:42:59.520 and we are. Let's listen.
00:43:08.920 Blackpink, Blackpink, Pink Venom.
00:43:12.880 Kick in the door, wave in the cocoa. Popcorn이 난 챙겨 껴들 생각 말고. I talk to talk. Runways I walk, walk.
00:43:21.460 눈 감고 pop, pop, pop. 안 봐도 참. By one and two, by two.
00:43:25.760 내 손끝 하나에 탐 무너지는 중.
00:43:28.480 가짜 쇼, 지금 화렬. It makes no sense. You couldn't get a dollar out of me.
00:43:33.920 자, 오늘 밤이야.
00:43:37.780 눈톡을 품고.
00:43:40.420 네 혼을 뺏은 밤.
00:43:43.040 Look what you made us do.
00:43:45.140 점점이 널 점재울 fire.
00:43:50.320 참이 날 만큼 아름다운.
00:43:53.160 Wow.
00:43:55.400 I mean, extraordinary.
00:43:58.080 Just extraordinary.
00:44:00.700 Listen to these lyrics.
00:44:01.620 Blackpink, Blackpink, Blackpink, Blackpink, Blackpink.
00:44:04.580 Kick in the door, waving the cocoa.
00:44:06.420 I talk that talk, runways I walk.
00:44:09.300 One by one, then two by two.
00:44:11.140 Makes no sense. You couldn't get a dollar out of me.
00:44:14.300 Look what you made us do.
00:44:16.580 This, that pink venom.
00:44:17.960 This, that pink venom.
00:44:19.960 This, that pink venom.
00:44:21.840 Straight to your dome, like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:44:24.640 Straight to your dome, like, ah, ah, ah.
00:44:29.660 That's poetry. That's what that is.
00:44:31.120 I mean, this is poetry in our culture.
00:44:33.180 It's the best we can do.
00:44:34.700 And maybe that causes you to fall into despair and wish you were never born.
00:44:38.060 Maybe it makes death by woodchipper seem almost appealing by comparison.
00:44:41.900 Maybe, or maybe you're like me and you listen to the words and you hear the deeper meaning.
00:44:46.680 Like, they say, they say Blackpink, Blackpink, Blackpink, Blackpink, Blackpink.
00:44:49.200 What does that mean?
00:44:49.680 It's their group name, right?
00:44:50.740 So they are, they're announcing themselves.
00:44:52.380 They're boldly announcing, proclaiming their existence, their selfhood.
00:44:57.040 They're standing, staring into the void, saying, I am here.
00:45:01.480 I exist.
00:45:01.840 It's a very existential way to begin the song.
00:45:04.040 And then they say, kicking the door, waving the cocoa.
00:45:06.380 What does that mean?
00:45:08.300 There are multiple interpretations for every, every verse.
00:45:12.120 In this case, what are they waving?
00:45:13.640 Cocoa, hot cocoa.
00:45:15.600 Why would they wave hot cocoa?
00:45:17.040 Wouldn't that cause burns?
00:45:19.360 That's the point.
00:45:20.460 Hot cocoa brings joy.
00:45:21.960 It can also burn you.
00:45:24.640 It's sweet.
00:45:25.460 It's hot.
00:45:26.040 It's scalding.
00:45:26.900 Isn't life like that?
00:45:28.080 I mean, isn't, is not life itself a battle between joy and tragedy?
00:45:34.460 Is it a battle or is it a game, an interplay, a dance?
00:45:39.240 That's the question that they're asking.
00:45:41.460 I want you to think about one other line, because this is the best.
00:45:43.060 They say, straight to your dome, like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:45:46.360 What is straight to your dome?
00:45:48.700 What is it?
00:45:49.780 Well, it's whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:45:50.860 What does that mean?
00:45:52.420 It's impossible to say.
00:45:54.180 Why?
00:45:54.540 Because in modern culture, we're constantly bombarded by information, by noise, by messages,
00:46:01.260 light, sound, right?
00:46:03.260 Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:04.160 It's a lot to take in.
00:46:06.080 All of this is straight to your dome.
00:46:09.080 My dome, the domes of the world.
00:46:11.980 What do you do with it?
00:46:13.060 How do you make sense of it?
00:46:14.880 What's the answer?
00:46:15.920 Blackpink doesn't have an answer, because life is not about finding the answer.
00:46:20.840 It's about inhabiting the moment for all its pain and joy that it might bring.
00:46:29.060 That's what I took out of that song.
00:46:30.900 Just insightful, beautiful, playful, yet tragic.
00:46:35.260 A masterpiece.
00:46:35.980 They are the entertainers of the year, and deservedly so.
00:46:42.420 All right.

00:47:58.540 Chadius Gigadeus says,
00:48:01.080 I guess TikTok having a whole different limited educational version for children in China wasn't a good enough hint for how detrimental it can be for youth if unrestricted.
00:48:09.180 You really need to spell things out for people nowadays.
00:48:11.840 Yeah, that should really be.
00:48:12.960 It's like the classic thing.
00:48:14.120 If you go to a restaurant and you hear that none of the people working at the restaurant would ever eat the food, then that should really tell you something.
00:48:24.980 And it's the same thing with TikTok.
00:48:26.260 They're serving up this food.
00:48:28.440 They're serving this dish to our kids here in the West, but they would never eat it themselves.
00:48:32.620 So they have a limited version of TikTok that is, as Chadius points out, it's educational, it's very toned down, very educational.
00:48:43.320 And yet they ship a totally different version to our country and to Western countries.
00:48:50.360 And then we, as the incredibly stupid parents, say, oh yeah, sure, go ahead.
00:48:56.140 Here you go, nine-year-old daughter.
00:48:57.980 Here's a phone with full unrestricted internet access.
00:49:00.880 Go ahead and spend six hours a day on this app from China that the Chinese won't even let their kids use, at least not in the form that I'm giving it to you right now.
00:49:09.720 Tommy Wiseau says, letting your children have a TikTok account is child abuse.
00:49:19.680 Yeah, I'm right there with you.
00:49:24.620 You know, I do think, and I don't say that lightly, but it is actually abusive.
00:49:28.940 To let your child be on TikTok is, I don't know how else to put it.
00:49:33.100 You know, it is going to hurt them.
00:49:36.760 There's no chance of it doing anything but hurting them.
00:49:39.400 It can't do anything else.
00:49:42.240 It's not designed to do anything else.
00:49:45.840 It's the only question of how much does it hurt them.
00:49:50.980 Let's see.
00:49:53.840 Shin to Skull says, some interesting usernames today.
00:49:57.020 Matt, I remember that when I was young in the 80s and 90s, dangerous and stupid stunts and dares were performed in front of a live group or crowd.
00:50:04.420 But there's a better chance someone would dissuade a potentially deadly stunt,
00:50:07.400 or if someone was in dire need during or after a stunt or dare, people were there to step in and help.
00:50:13.140 These kids are alone in their room with no other voice of reason or backup on hand.
00:50:19.260 Scary.
00:50:20.100 Yeah, this is the point I was trying to point to yesterday.
00:50:21.920 And I think it's a very good point that we should think more about because, you know, if we're talking about the blackout game, the choking dare, whatever you want to call it,
00:50:31.480 and there were some comments pointing out, as I acknowledged yesterday, that TikTok didn't invent this.
00:50:36.900 The kids today that are doing this choke out thing are not the first ones to do it.
00:50:41.500 And, yeah, I can remember.
00:50:43.660 I never did it myself because it never seemed appealing to me.
00:50:47.260 Like, being choked never seemed appealing to me.
00:50:49.180 But I can remember being in middle school.
00:50:52.260 And this is before social media.
00:50:55.420 And people were doing this thing.
00:50:56.980 The difference is that, as you point out, it's a very important difference.
00:51:02.540 That, yeah, kids have always been doing stupid things, participating in dumb dares and stunts and everything, especially boys, but girls as well.
00:51:10.940 That's always been the case.
00:51:12.960 But with social media, it becomes a delivery mechanism for this stuff.
00:51:17.640 It incentivizes doing it.
00:51:20.220 It provides even more incentive.
00:51:21.580 But then also, oftentimes kids are participating in these dangerous stunts and dares in isolation.
00:51:28.920 They're recording it so that they can post it online if they survive whatever stupid thing they're doing.
00:51:35.760 Whereas in the past, yeah, you know, because you only do this for an audience.
00:51:40.000 That's the only reason kids do this.
00:51:41.460 It's like because it's peer pressure and it's an audience and they're trying to get attention, like kids always have.
00:51:46.140 But in the past, if you wanted to have an audience and you wanted to get attention, then the audience was going to be in the room with you.
00:51:51.940 And so at the very least, if something went catastrophically wrong, you would hope that there'd be someone there to go get an adult, to call 911, whatever.
00:51:58.700 Now the audience is in virtual space.
00:52:01.900 And oftentimes, you know, you put it in front of the audience after it's done.
00:52:07.500 Or even if it's being live streamed, they're not physically there.
00:52:11.300 Which makes all this all the more dangerous.
00:52:12.880 Finally, Joshua says, wow, lol, I've been disappointed so many times today.
00:52:19.340 I don't know where to start.
00:52:20.420 Very sad to hear these things from you, Matt.
00:52:22.100 I knew it couldn't be true for too long.
00:52:24.940 Adios, my friend.
00:52:27.120 I don't know what part of the show this is in reference to.
00:52:29.900 Tell me it's Santa Claus.
00:52:31.420 Tell me it's because I said that my kids believe in Santa Claus.
00:52:35.000 I'm sorry we have to part ways, but please tell me that's the reason.
00:52:40.620 Because that's just hilarious.
00:52:42.360 J-Man says, Matt would be a brutal dictator, probably would have to live exactly like he sees fit or not at all.
00:52:47.340 Now you're getting the point.
00:52:50.540 That's the whole theocratic fascist dictator deal.
00:52:55.120 The new Jeremy's range of hair, skin, and body products is here.
00:52:59.260 And no one will enjoy gifting it more this Christmas than me and the sweet baby gang.
00:53:04.380 Not just because gift bundles are 30% off right now, which is a great deal.
00:53:08.140 But because the new Jeremy's body wash and facial cleanser are made with bamboo charcoal.
00:53:14.400 This is charcoal body wash.
00:53:16.480 That's right, the charcoal of bamboo plants, which is a thing, I guess.
00:53:21.060 The only thing standing between pandas and their well-deserved demise is bamboo.
00:53:26.180 I get it.
00:53:26.540 So we're going to chop down all the bamboo, put it in a body wash, and all the pandas finally die as they deserve.
00:53:33.320 This is our sales pitch, I guess.
00:53:36.380 This Christmas, your family will love receiving a Jeremy's Razors gift bundle.
00:53:40.420 What's not to love about tea tree and peppermint shampoo and conditioner, oatmeal, and citrus body soap.
00:53:45.300 But don't forget, bamboo charcoal.
00:53:48.460 Every morning, as your family enjoys the freshness of an aloe vera-infused cleanser, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that they're starving the world's remaining pandas to death.
00:53:57.920 And they're all going to die, not just die, but die agonizing slow deaths.
00:54:02.560 It's getting pretty dark.
00:54:05.520 Give yourself the gift of giving Jeremy's 100% woke-free products and get 30% off gift bundles before December 15th to arrive in time for Christmas.
00:54:13.920 Just go to dailywire.com slash walsh and kill all the pandas.
00:54:18.360 Now let's get to our daily cancellation.
00:54:19.800 You know, it's been nearly three years since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry dramatically announced that they were stepping down from their roles in the royal family and moving to America.
00:54:32.060 They said that they valued their privacy and could no longer tolerate living under the white-hot glare of the spotlight.
00:54:39.080 Their stated reasoning may have been, you know, convincing to you at the time if you were dumb enough to believe that Meghan Markle is the sort of girl who marries into royalty because she values her privacy.
00:54:49.120 But if you're at least intelligent enough to score higher than an earthworm on an IQ test, then you knew that Harry and Meghan were seeking attention, not shirking from it.
00:54:59.240 And if you're in this latter category, the smarter-than-an-earthworm demographic, you have not then been surprised to find that this private and humble ex-royal couple has spent the last couple of years seeking attention wherever they can find it.
00:55:13.760 They've done multiple tell-all interviews, one conducted by Oprah.
00:55:16.680 They've signed book deals, they've signed multi-million dollar podcast deals.
00:55:20.700 Meghan has posed for literally every magazine cover in existence outside of maybe Car and Driver magazine, although maybe she got around to that too.
00:55:28.520 They have sought a very peculiar form of privacy indeed.
00:55:33.060 A form that involves appearing on every sort of medium, willfully attracting attention, and then monetizing that attention.
00:55:40.200 This is the kind of private life they wish to lead.
00:55:42.140 And now they're going to continue their privacy tour by starring in a Netflix docu-series, which premieres this weekend.
00:55:48.640 And here's the trailer.
00:55:49.660 It's really hard to look back on it now and go, what on earth happened?
00:55:57.340 You hear that?
00:55:58.060 That is the sound of hearts breaking all around the world.
00:56:00.760 She's becoming a royal rock star.
00:56:05.220 And then...
00:56:07.160 Everything changed.
00:56:09.700 There's a hierarchy of the family.
00:56:11.900 You know, there's leaking, but there's also planting of stories.
00:56:14.580 There was a war against Meghan to suit other people's genders.
00:56:19.920 It's about hatred.
00:56:21.160 It's about race.
00:56:22.400 It's a dirty game.
00:56:24.520 The pain and the suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy.
00:56:31.240 I realized they're never going to protect you.
00:56:36.060 I was terrified.
00:56:38.020 I didn't want history to repeat itself.
00:56:39.440 No one knows the full truth.
00:56:47.480 We know the full truth.
00:56:49.760 How many times are they going to milk this exact same?
00:56:52.180 No one has heard this before.
00:56:53.740 No one knows the full truth.
00:56:55.520 We've heard you tell the supposed full truth about 46 times in the last year.
00:57:01.980 So I believe the official title of this is Give Me Attention, the movie.
00:57:05.640 Either that or they're just calling it Harry and Meghan, which is the same idea either way.
00:57:08.520 Of course, everything that Meghan Markle is involved in, starting with her marriage,
00:57:11.980 is at its core a publicity stunt and a sham.
00:57:14.940 And this film is no different.
00:57:16.580 In fact, eagle-eyed viewers have noticed that between the two main trailers released for the series,
00:57:22.240 at least three of the images in these trailers of media harassing and hounding the couple
00:57:26.960 are taken out of context from events where neither Harry nor Meghan were even present.
00:57:33.600 BBC.com has this report.
00:57:34.880 A photograph of paparazzi appears in the first trailer, just before a clip of Harry,
00:57:39.920 saying he had to do everything that he could to protect his family.
00:57:43.080 However, it is said to have actually been taken at a Harry Potter premiere,
00:57:46.780 five years before the Duke and Duchess even met.
00:57:49.600 A clip in the second trailer, which apparently illustrates paparazzi hounding the couple,
00:57:53.080 was actually taken when former model Katie Price arrived at Crawley Magistrates Court last December.
00:57:58.660 Shortly before that shot, the Duke of Sussex is heard speaking of the pain and suffering of women
00:58:02.740 marrying into the royal family, adding that he did not want history to repeat itself,
00:58:07.060 as a clip shows men apparently chasing someone with cameras.
00:58:09.680 The clip was, in fact, recorded as Price arrived to be sentenced over a drunk driving charge.
00:58:15.100 One section of the second trailer also features clips of reporters, photographers, and cameramen
00:58:18.820 apparently in close pursuit of the couple.
00:58:20.780 However, one media crush seen by viewers was not targeting the royal family, the royal couple,
00:58:25.980 but rather President Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, leaving his New York apartment in 2019
00:58:31.440 to serve time in prison for financial crimes, campaign finance violations, and lying to Congress.
00:58:36.720 So it's pretty hilarious that they crammed three misleading images just into the trailer.
00:58:42.260 Who knows how many lies they'll be able to pack into the full series?
00:58:45.580 It's also grotesque, but that's par for the course with Harry and Meghan.
00:58:48.800 And these two may have ostensibly stepped down from their royal occupation, but only to exchange
00:58:54.900 one throne and one crown for another, because they are now king and queen victim.
00:59:01.780 And it is a symbolic, figurehead-type position, just like the one they left.
00:59:07.380 But it also carries a considerable amount of power in our culture, not to mention profit potential.
00:59:11.520 They are, in many ways, the perfect representation of victimhood in modern Western culture.
00:59:19.700 This is the service they're providing us, is by showing us what victimhood really entails these days.
00:59:25.700 They are our victimhood mascots.
00:59:28.740 Immensely privileged, absurdly wealthy, living lives of unimaginable comfort, surrounded by ostentatious luxury.
00:59:37.540 They're celebrated by the media, they're fawned over, they're applauded, yet they can't stop whining.
00:59:45.180 They are never happy.
00:59:46.780 None of their riches, no amount of public adulation will convince these spoiled, self-centered brats
00:59:52.200 that they're anything but oppressed and downtrodden.
00:59:56.820 And what's more, this is another hallmark of modern victimhood,
00:59:59.720 they maintain their victimhood delusions even as they viciously attack the ones they claim to be helplessly victimized by.
01:00:05.940 So Harry has turned on his own family, aired their dirty laundry, monetized its airing,
01:00:12.640 and yet still pretends to be somehow the injured party.
01:00:16.160 Now, are their tears fake?
01:00:19.360 Is it all an act?
01:00:21.320 Well, yes and no.
01:00:22.600 Yes, in the sense that Meghan Markle is a sociopath who has probably never experienced a fully authentic human emotion in her life.
01:00:28.480 But no in the sense that, you know, to the extent that they can feel emotions at all,
01:00:32.580 they are actually upset.
01:00:34.360 I believe that part.
01:00:35.940 Because part of the curse of being a narcissist is that you're never satisfied.
01:00:40.720 No matter how much attention you get, it's never enough.
01:00:44.380 So long as you remain still standing on a planet that revolves around the sun rather than around you.
01:00:49.920 So long as there are people out there living lives that have nothing to do with you,
01:00:54.460 and talking about things other than you, and prioritizing their own well-being over yours.
01:01:00.100 So long as any of that remains the case, you will feel persecuted.

01:01:12.660 Whatever they have, they should always have more in their minds.

01:01:22.860 They're always being conspired against.

01:01:28.540 Narcissism and victimhood go hand in hand.
01:01:30.220 Our culture of victimhood is really then a culture of narcissism.
01:01:35.380 And Harry and Meghan are its perfect representatives and creations.
01:01:40.960 And for that, they are today canceled.
01:01:44.620 And that'll do it for this portion of the show as we move over to the members block.
01:01:47.640 Hope to see you there.
01:01:48.360 If not, we'll talk to you tomorrow.
01:01:49.800 Godspeed.

01:02:00.220 Godspeed.
