Today on the Matt Wall Show, Democrats in the House hold a hearing on alleged anti-LGBT
00:00:04.740
violence, blaming this made-up epidemic on hate speech. But what is hate speech and what's so
00:00:09.100
bad about it? Nothing, as it turns out. Also, the Senate moves to ban TikTok on government devices,
00:00:14.520
but really it should be banned on all devices nationwide. So when are we going to do that?
00:00:18.440
A new film starring AOC earns a staggering $10,000 in its first week of release across the
00:00:24.760
entire country. Plus, Nancy Pelosi is caught on film degrading and dehumanizing white males.
00:00:30.000
But what else is new? All of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

Even after the White House was lit up like the gay pride rainbow and drag queens were invited for a
00:01:39.920
celebration of a bill codifying gay marriage and effectively abolishing religious liberty
00:01:45.000
nationwide, still Democrats in Washington decided that they had not done enough LGBT-related
00:01:51.120
virtue signaling this week. They'd done quite a lot of it, but not enough. You can never do enough in
00:01:57.340
their minds anyway. And so yesterday, a House of Representatives oversight committee held a hearing
00:02:02.340
on the subject of, quote, anti-LGBTQI plus violence and extremism. Now, much of this hearing
00:02:10.040
revolved around the Colorado Gay Club shooting, an attack that the media and the left are still
00:02:15.380
blaming on alleged anti-gay rhetoric, even though no actual motive has been identified or announced.
00:02:23.460
In fact, it's been several weeks now since this happened, and we've still been told almost nothing
00:02:28.300
about the guy who did it, who is still alive and in police custody and has been talking to police,
00:02:33.780
but we haven't heard anything about what he said, which is quite suspicious. But all of that, of
00:02:39.300
course, is unimportant to the propagandists. There were several notable moments to come out of the
00:02:44.720
hearing, and not all of it had to do with supposed anti-LGBTQ violence and extremism. For instance,
00:02:50.340
one witness, a woman named Jessie Pocock, with an activist group called Inside Out,
00:02:55.220
took the opportunity to effectively deny the existence of detransitioners. They don't exist,
00:03:01.360
she said. Listen. A lot of people in the news coming out detransitioning.
00:03:07.520
Could you speak to that phenomenon? And what's that person going through? Did they get it wrong?
00:03:18.340
Were they going through a period? Is it just a fluid thing? I mean, could you speak to that?
00:03:22.100
Well, you know, I can't really speak to an individual's personal experience. I mean,
00:03:27.980
you know, somebody's gender is just a really personal experience, but I can speak to you.
00:03:32.900
I've been in this work for a long time. I know a lot of trans folks, close friends, family members,
00:03:40.620
and I've just never heard a case of anyone detransitioning. So I honestly don't think it's a real...
00:03:47.300
There's a number of cases in the news right now where this is happening. And the concern for
00:03:53.960
parents have is, you know, we've all had awkward teen years where we've questioned things in
00:04:00.920
existence and a lot of things. And the question is, is kids who are maybe making a permanent
00:04:05.280
decision even without the input of their parents... Now, the congressman unfortunately speaks over
00:04:11.580
her at the end rather than allowing her to continue to bury herself with her own insanity. But she does
00:04:17.240
say, to quote her, I've never heard of a case of anyone detransitioning, so I honestly don't think
00:04:22.480
it's a real thing. Now, there are only two ways to interpret that claim. The first and most likely
00:04:28.400
interpretation is that she's simply lying and knowingly denying the existence of detransitioners
00:04:33.420
so that she can continue to trans the kids without impediment. The other possibility,
00:04:38.380
which really isn't any better, is that this woman lives in such an enclosed, sealed-off,
00:04:43.800
hermetically sealed bubble that she actually has managed to avoid ever hearing about any case of
00:04:50.460
any person regretting the fact that they mutilated themselves. Either way, whether she's a godforsaken
00:04:55.840
liar or oblivious in the extreme or some combination, she is not a credible voice on this subject. And yet,
00:05:02.040
she's been brought on as an expert witness at a congressional hearing. Somehow, though,
00:05:08.200
that wasn't the most disturbing thing that she said during that exchange. She was also asked about
00:05:13.100
the age of consent for gender transitions. And this is how she answered.
00:05:18.940
You know, we have to do everything we can to make sure that young person is safe and protected.
00:05:23.500
We have, we are constantly filing reports of abuse and neglect because of parents not seeing young
00:05:32.040
people who they are. It sounds like you're deflecting the question a little bit. I understand cases of
00:05:36.880
abuse. There's laws to protect the abuse. I mean, schools actually are legally obligated to report
00:05:42.060
cases of abuse, same for churches and the like, anyone who deals with young people. But, you know,
00:05:47.680
do parents have a right? Should they be informed about what's going on? Do they have a right to
00:05:54.260
know what's going on in their kids' lives? So, I think, again, those of us who are protecting and
00:06:01.540
supporting young people are there and trusted with the information of the things that they are
00:06:06.380
dealing with. In terms of parents' rights to know at schools, I mean, here in Colorado, parents don't
00:06:12.040
have the right. If a young person is questioning their gender or their sexuality, there are laws
00:06:18.800
in place that say that they have the right to process that with their trusted counselor and so
00:06:23.900
forth. You do a significant amount of your work with kids even starting at age 13.
00:06:29.760
What would be the age of consent then in your mind? In our community, the age of consent to mental
00:06:37.580
health therapy is 12 years old. So, we have laws that enable young people to connect with trusted
00:06:43.520
adults who can support them. That is just so important. It prevents suicide. And so, we serve
00:06:48.960
young people at 13 because we know they come to us and we can prevent negative health outcomes for
00:06:55.840
them. This is just so frustrating to watch and not even only because of the crazy nonsense she's
00:07:02.640
spewing there, but because her questioner bails her out time and time again, bails her out by cutting
00:07:08.020
her off. At the beginning of that clip, she says that she has filed numerous reports of abuse and
00:07:13.580
neglect against parents who don't accept their child's trans identity. I'd like to hear more about
00:07:19.660
that. What does that mean? So, if a, what, an eight-year-old boy says, Daddy, I'm a girl,
00:07:27.620
and is not immediately affirmed as such, you're going to file an abuse and neglect claim with CPS
00:07:33.360
over that? That doesn't surprise me. I know that they're doing that kind of thing. Let's talk about
00:07:37.620
that. Instead, he just moves on from that. And in fact, even agrees with it, says, well, we know that
00:07:43.060
abuse and neglect, of course, is bad. Though what she says later is just as shocking. Parents, she says,
00:07:49.780
don't have the right to know about their child's gender transition and that the transition can begin at
00:07:54.880
12, which is, according to her, the age of consent. Now, she says it's the age of consent for
00:07:59.040
mental health therapy. But what she's really talking about when she says mental health therapy
00:08:03.860
is the, you know, the indoctrination of a child into their trans identity. They are able to consent
00:08:14.080
to begin that process at the age of 12. But this is a direction that the Democrats didn't want the
00:08:20.280
hearing to go. What they wanted to focus on instead is all the dangerous rhetoric and hate
00:08:25.380
speech, which is giving rise to this purported epidemic of anti-LGBT violence. And to that end,
00:08:31.260
a trans activist named Olivia Hunt tried to explain how words like groomer are contributing to this
00:08:37.820
supposed problem. People who are already receptive to that message take it to heart and it reinforces
00:08:44.660
their prejudices. In their minds, trans people either become victims to be saved from ourselves or
00:08:49.640
villains to be punished. One example of this inaction is the misuse of the term groomer.
00:08:55.080
Anti-LGBTQ activists have appropriated this terminology used by survivors of childhood sexual
00:08:59.820
abuse and used it to slander LGBTQ people and our allies as predatory, harmful toward children.
00:09:05.960
In reality, trans people are significantly more likely to be the victims of sexual abuse than
00:09:10.300
perpetrators of it. And now this misused terminology has become part of the political discourse around
00:09:15.600
trans people and is invoked as a reason to further restrict our rights in the name of
00:09:19.560
protecting children. This same rhetoric has subsequently been used as justification for
00:09:24.560
violent anti-LGBTQ activism. Heavily armed protesters have made numerous attacks or attempts at intimidation
00:09:30.740
against family-friendly pride events and drag performances around the country. Even hospitals
00:09:35.480
have been targeted with bomb threats and intimidation tactics, based on social media figures spreading
00:09:39.920
baseless stories that the providers are, in their words, mutilating children. There's a straight line that can be
00:09:46.060
drawn from the legislation trying to strip trans people of our human rights, to the increasingly hostile and
00:09:51.060
inflammatory rhetoric portraying us as a threat to society, to the acts of violence that have taken far too many lives.
00:09:56.700
Okay, so a few quick points here. First of all, it's true that many trans people have a history of being
00:10:02.680
sexually abused. That's true. Now, if the psychiatric industry in this country had any moral courage or
00:10:10.320
intellectual curiosity, they might be investigating why exactly people who have experienced sexual trauma
00:10:17.840
are more likely to try and disassociate themselves from their own gender and claim a new identity.
00:10:25.160
Might there be some sort of connection there that's worth exploring?
00:10:29.860
Well, we don't explore it. It's just something we're not even supposed to talk about.
00:10:33.620
Second, it's not in our words that hospitals are mutilating children. They are, in fact, chopping the
00:10:39.340
breasts off of minors. They are, in fact, prescribing drugs that chemically castrate and sterilize kids.
00:10:43.400
The word mutilate means, according to the dictionary, until they change it, to inflict
00:10:48.880
serious damage on. That's what it means. All of these things constitute damage, and the damage is
00:10:55.420
both physical and serious. So when we use the term mutilate, we are using it because it is the most
00:10:59.080
accurate way to describe what is going on. And third, we hear again how rhetoric causes violence.
00:11:04.320
And this was, of course, the main theme throughout the hearing. And as one witness put it,
00:11:12.920
Hate rhetoric from politicians, religious leaders, and media outlets is at the root of the attacks,
00:11:19.360
like at Club Cute, and it needs to stop now. Rhetoric that makes people less than for being
00:11:24.900
different. Rhetoric that threatens to silence what sports we can play, what bathrooms we can use,
00:11:30.700
how we define our family, and who I can marry. Every American, every American, especially those
00:11:39.660
elected to positions of power, has a responsibility and a choice to use their words consciously.
00:11:48.520
Hate starts with speech. Now, this was also the thesis of a Scientific American report published this
00:11:52.940
week titled, How Anti-LGBTQ Plus Rhetoric Fuels Violence.
00:11:57.240
And it warns that hate speech from the far right is increasing the risk of violence against
00:12:01.280
LGBTQ plus people, such as the Club Q shooting. Now, the report then, of course, as always,
00:12:07.480
specifically singles out myself, lives of TikTok, Tucker Carlson, the three foremost peddlers of
00:12:14.100
hate speech in the country, we're told. And it asserts that we have sparked an increasing
00:12:18.080
epidemic of anti-LGBT violence. Now, I say asserts because there is nothing like proof or evidence
00:12:24.040
provided, whether in the Scientific American report or in this hearing or any other time
00:12:27.700
they talk about this. There's certainly no evidence that we have inspired violence, much
00:12:31.860
less called for it. But there's also no evidence that the epidemic of anti-LGBT violence is even
00:12:36.760
occurring in the first place. Outside of the Club Q shooting, an event that, once again, we still do not
00:12:42.300
have a confirmed motive for, they don't give very many specific examples of actual acts of violence
00:12:48.700
violence carried out against gay or trans people. A picture is painted of a country where LGBT people
00:12:54.260
are being constantly assaulted and killed by right-wing bigots. And yet, the picture is quite
00:12:58.440
fuzzy. And there's not a lot of detail to it. That's because it is largely imaginary. They have
00:13:04.500
invented this crisis. They've invented it, which means that they can invent the cause too. And the cause is
00:13:11.900
me, libs of TikTok, Tucker, you, all of us who express views on gender and sexuality that they
00:13:18.740
disagree with, we are guilty because we are peddling hate speech. And that brings me to the crux of the
00:13:25.600
matter here. What is hate speech exactly? Well, hate speech is any speech that the left hates. And it
00:13:32.400
really is that simple. If you don't believe me, then go up to any leftist and really test me on this.
00:13:39.620
Go up to any leftist. Ask them if there is any criticism of gender ideology or the LGBT agenda
00:13:47.120
that they would not consider hate speech. Is there any way to, for example, object to the
00:13:54.760
transitioning of minors without engaging in hate speech? Is there, no, I know I get blamed for being
00:14:01.260
very abrasive and direct and blunt and inflammatory in the way that I phrase things. Fine, whatever.
00:14:08.100
Is there any way that I could phrase it that would be acceptable or at least not hate speech?
00:14:14.260
Is there any way to advocate for biblical marriage without engaging in hate speech? Is there any way
00:14:18.340
to defend the biological nature of womanhood without being guilty of hate speech? Have they ever in their
00:14:23.860
lives heard anyone ever express any of these views in a way that they did not consider hate speech?
00:14:30.940
The answer on all counts will be no. And I dare any of them to prove me wrong. I dare any of them to
00:14:38.380
provide an example of a fundamental criticism of their view on gender and sexuality that they do not
00:14:45.020
classify as hate speech. They can't. And that's because hate speech simply is, by definition,
00:14:52.580
the rejection of left-wing ideas. That's what hate speech is. And to be clear, when I say that,
00:14:58.100
okay, it's not that the left has misused or abused the term hate speech to support their causes.
00:15:04.060
That's not it. They invented the term. This is their term. It exists for no other reason
00:15:09.520
than to silence conservatives. That's the whole point of the concept.
00:15:14.940
There is no neutral or non-ideological or non-political way to understand the concept of
00:15:21.500
hate speech. The concept is nonsense when considered objectively. If you try to remove ideology and
00:15:26.740
politics from it and just think about it on its own terms, I mean, hate speech? What the hell is that?
00:15:32.780
So speech that expresses hate is hate speech? But how could you just lump all that into a category and
00:15:39.860
say, well, all that's bad. Aren't there things that are worthy of hate? Don't we all agree that there
00:15:44.440
are some things in life that we all should hate? If I use my speech to communicate my hatred of
00:15:50.960
slavery or rape, is that then hate speech? Well, in a literal sense, yes, I'm using speech. I'm saying
00:15:58.640
that I hate something. It's hate speech. But that's not what they mean. Because hate speech is, again,
00:16:05.740
speech they hate. I think we might better call it hated speech. So when you hear hate speech,
00:16:11.520
you think hated speech. And that's why I don't bother defending myself against the hate speech
00:16:19.500
charge. There are some on the right who do and who waste a lot of breath by saying, I don't engage
00:16:26.000
in hate speech. You engage in hate speech. You're the hate speecher, not me. I embrace it. So when they
00:16:33.840
say, oh, this hate speech, Matt, sure, okay. Yes, I say things the left hates. And yes, I myself express
00:16:40.800
hatred. I hate the abuse of children. I hate the assault on truth and science. I hate the left's
00:16:46.740
attack on common sense and reality and decency. I hate the trans agenda. I hate it with a passion.
00:16:57.680
Hate all of that. And I use speech to express that hatred. And it is speech that the left hates. So
00:17:05.540
the speech is hateful and hated. Hatred all around. Hate speech. Sure, fine. Guilty as charged

00:18:17.100
bill that would ban the use of TikTok on government devices amid growing national security concerns over
00:18:22.680
the Chinese-owned social media platform. The No TikTok on Government Devices Act, introduced by Senator
00:18:28.120
Josh Hawley, was passed late on Wednesday. It says, TikTok is a Trojan horse for the Chinese Communist
00:18:33.660
Party. It's a major security risk to the United States. And until it's forced to sever ties with
00:18:37.240
China completely, it has no place on government devices, Hawley said in a statement. States across
00:18:41.000
the U.S. are banning TikTok on government devices. It's time for Joe Biden and Democrats to help do the
00:18:44.880
same. The bill will need to be passed in the House and signed by President Joe Biden to become law.
00:18:49.880
And this is only just one bill related to TikTok. A group of bipartisan lawmakers is also leading a
00:18:57.140
drive to completely ban the use of TikTok nationwide for everyone. Senator Marco Rubio introduced the
00:19:02.760
legislation in the Senate this month. Representatives Mike Gallagher and Raja Krishnamoorthy, let's say,
00:19:09.640
introduced companion legislation in the House. The bipartisan anti-social CCP Act is a strong step in
00:19:17.100
protecting our nation from the nefarious digital surveillance and influence operations of
00:19:22.340
the solitary regimes. And Marco Rubio, I know, was on Tucker Carlson last night talking about this
00:19:26.180
bill to ban TikTok nationwide. So a few things. First of all, the great thing, and of course it
00:19:33.680
should be to begin with, banned on government devices. Even if it wasn't a communist Chinese
00:19:42.020
surveillance operation, which it is, we should still ban it on government. It's a government device.
00:19:47.260
Why should you have any kind of social media? Ban all social media on government devices. Let's do
00:19:51.920
that. And the really great thing about banning TikTok on government devices is that it will prevent
00:19:57.280
Gen Z from getting jobs in government. They're not going to want to work in government if they can't
00:20:02.020
have TikTok at the ready. So I consider that a benefit. But of course, it should obviously go beyond
00:20:08.180
that. And it should be banned nationwide. There's just, there's no arguments. I have not heard one
00:20:15.620
salient argument as to why TikTok should not be banned nationwide across the entire country.
00:20:26.260
I haven't heard it. And yet it remains unbanned. Yet it's still out there and we're allowed to use it
00:20:32.400
when there's no good argument for it. It is, once again, just a fact that it's a surveillance
00:20:39.640
operation by the communist Chinese government. That's what it is. That's how it's used. They're
00:20:45.700
using it to spy on us, to get access to our data, to our information, get access to our phones. That's
00:20:52.660
how it's being used. And on top of that, as if we need more reason to get rid of it, on top of that,
00:21:00.340
it's just absolutely toxic for kids. It's destroying kids. And it's not the only social
00:21:09.200
media platform. And of course, if you get rid of one, it'll just be replaced by another. We
00:21:12.000
understand that. But that's not a good enough reason to keep it around. So you've got something
00:21:21.200
that's poisonous to kids. That's just like ruining entire generations of kids who are addicted to this
00:21:28.720
thing. And also it's being used by an adversarial government to spy on us. And yet we're still
00:21:37.860
sitting around talking about, hmm, should we? Is it really the right thing to ban it though?
00:21:46.280
All right, let's move to this. So if hate speech makes no sense, neither does the category of hate
00:21:50.940
crime. And also at the aforementioned hearing, there was another witness who, and much of what
00:21:59.580
he says here, unlike some of the other witnesses of this hearing who just were, everything they said
00:22:04.960
was totally insane. Much of what he says here, I agree with. And he calls for the death penalty for
00:22:11.000
At the population level, most people who hate will never convert their hate into a crime, meaning that
00:22:17.660
education produces little prevention per hour or dollar expended. Rather, the members of this
00:22:23.200
committee want to more effectively combat hate crime. They should do so by supporting the criminal justice
00:22:27.540
system. Increased funding for police hiring to remediate the decline in police employment per capita
00:22:32.500
since the Great Recession. Better fund police investigations integral to clearing hate crime cases.
00:22:37.980
Support state and local prosecutors in forming specialized hate crime bureaus, including by
00:22:43.000
coordinating information sharing in the challenging area of hate crime prosecution.
00:22:47.960
Increased federal hate crime penalties and encourage the Department of Justice to pursue hate crime
00:22:52.140
charges in states where local laws are insufficient, such as in New York State, where the Buffalo grocery
00:22:56.580
shooter cannot be executed for his heinous defense, a situation in our lab which also obtains in
00:23:00.620
Colorado. Hate crime against LGBTQ people and otherwise is a serious issue, and we must take it
00:23:06.860
seriously. Doing that means treating hate criminals like the criminals they are and bringing the full
00:23:12.460
power of the justice system to bear on them. Now, I agree that these mass shooters should be executed.
00:23:18.440
Absolutely. Execute them. Execute them. Do it swiftly. Do it publicly, as far as I am concerned.
00:23:24.040
Bring back public executions. I've long advocated for that, for mass shootings and for many other crimes as
00:23:32.880
well. But the issue is with the category of hate crime. As we've talked about on the show recently,
00:23:38.300
is there any motivation for a mass shooting that would be less bad than any other motivation?
00:23:48.680
Okay, is there a less bad version of a mass shooting?
00:23:52.000
Now, I'm not sure that I believe, as some will say, that all such crimes are motivated by hatred,
00:23:58.780
because that's one criticism of the hate crime category, is that, well, if you're killing people,
00:24:03.920
then obviously you hate them, so how can we even distinguish? I don't think I agree with that. I think
00:24:08.840
that crimes can be motivated by other things, indifference to human life, envy, a kind of
00:24:15.960
psychopathic boredom. I mean, these people are motivated by all sorts of things. It's hard to know exactly what's
00:24:21.560
going on in the mind of a mass murderer. Whatever's going on in there, it's dark and twisted and
00:24:25.980
horrifying. But why does it matter? I mean, imagine you have two mass shootings, okay? Imagine two mass
00:24:33.300
shootings on the same day, in the same town, killing the same number of people, okay, hypothetically. And
00:24:38.840
in one case, the mass shooter is a racist. And we know that because he's got the manifesto and
00:24:44.900
everything, and he's targeting black people, and he's very open about, that's why he's doing it.
00:24:49.280
In the other case, the mass shooter is, let's say, a psychopathic nihilist, indifferent to human
00:24:55.380
life, killing people of all different races, and doing it just for entertainment, and to feel a sense
00:25:01.560
of power and control in his life. Same number of dead people. Same trauma for the survivors. Same
00:25:09.660
bloodshed. Is the former crime really worse than the latter? Really? It's worse? I mean, how can it be
00:25:18.440
worse? How can either be worse than the other? It's as bad as you can possibly get. Should one be
00:25:25.520
treated harsher? Like, are you going to walk in onto the scene of the second shooting and go, oh my
00:25:30.360
God, what happened here? Why did he do this? And someone says, well, he's a nihilist, a psychopath.
00:25:35.920
He's indifferent to human life. Oh, so this wasn't hate. Well, phew, thank God. I thought he had a bad
00:25:41.900
reason to murder 32 people. In fact, if anything, if anything, it goes the other way. If anything,
00:25:48.820
we should be slightly less worried about the hate crime perpetrator. Because hatred can be redeemed.
00:25:56.980
A hateful person can be, in theory, reformed. Now, mass murder should all still be executed,
00:26:02.400
in my opinion. But my point is simply that of the two types of violent scumbags,
00:26:06.940
the hate crime bigot and the nihilistic psychopath, if we have to parse this and split
00:26:14.140
hairs and everything, and who's worse than the other, the latter probably poses the greater danger
00:26:19.640
and is less likely to be reformed. I think you could make a better argument for that.
00:26:27.640
But though, again, to my mind, they should be treated the same. Because this whole argument is,
00:26:32.580
you know, maybe it's interesting on an academic level. But when you try to put it into action,
00:26:37.320
the criminal justice system, it's just absolutely ridiculous. Because no matter why they did it,
00:26:44.260
it doesn't matter. It's just as bad, no matter what the reason was.
00:26:50.600
All right. The Daily Mail has this report. A documentary by Nancy Pelosi's daughter,
00:26:54.880
Alexandra, reveals that the House Speaker was speaking to President Barack Obama
00:27:00.100
after Democrats endured the famous off-year shellacking, and this is back in 2010,
00:27:05.780
blaming white male voters getting in a mood over the sour economy. Her assessment came after a
00:27:11.260
wipeout that cost the party its majority after enactment of Obama's signature Affordable Care Act,
00:27:15.740
then often derided as Obamacare by its opponents. So this documentary is apparently called Pelosi in
00:27:20.460
the House. And if you want to watch it for some reason, it's on HBO. So you can go. If you want to
00:27:25.020
watch a documentary about Nancy Pelosi, you can go do that. But here's the scene in question.
00:27:30.900
We're worried about the economy since the presidential office is not a good night.
00:27:35.760
We find the rate has been above 9%. Our members have said they don't regret their health care
00:27:40.620
bill got across the board. Even if we never passed health care reform, we were still going to lose
00:27:45.500
this election because of 9.5% unemployment. Because it wasn't about that. It was about jobs.
00:27:51.680
The white male thing is just, that's a dominant thing. And when they don't have a job,
00:27:56.620
they get in a mood. So we'll not have to make some decisions in our office about how we go forward.
00:28:05.320
The white male thing. She says the white male thing. When they don't have a job, they get in a mood.
00:28:13.260
Now, needless to say, this is a career killer, even for someone like Nancy Pelosi, if you put any other
00:28:18.800
group in that sentence. Imagine her saying, you know, the black male thing. They get in a mood sometimes.
00:28:26.620
She says that and it's done. It's over. This is someone who's been in the House of Representatives
00:28:33.560
for 350 years. Before it even existed, she was in it. And that would be enough to kill her career.
00:28:41.340
But you could say that about white males. And the thing is, they put this in a documentary. It's not
00:28:47.420
like this was some behind the scenes footage that she did. This is her daughter put this out there.
00:28:52.520
This wasn't some kind of expose. They have no problem with this. She would say this publicly.
00:28:56.620
The Democrats would say, she would say almost exactly that in front of a microphone at a press
00:29:01.660
conference. She has no problem with that. Because there's no penalty. There is no downside really
00:29:11.260
politically to heaping scorn and contempt on white males. The white male thing.
00:29:22.680
So why not? They're very open about it. And one of the reasons why they can be so open about it,
00:29:28.900
and why there is no penalty, is that Republicans don't have the guts or the brains to counter this.
00:29:37.540
You know, she can go out and say whatever she wants about white males,
00:29:42.540
because even her political opponents won't say anything about it. They're not going to stand up
00:29:47.520
there and say, she has hatred of white males. She is anti-white male. Okay, she's a racist and a
00:29:55.440
sexist. They're not going to get up and say that. They're not going to accuse her specifically by name
00:30:01.200
of anti-white male bigotry. They won't say it. Even though that's exactly what we just heard,
00:30:08.220
and Democrats could not be more clear about it, in villainizing and demonizing white males.
00:30:15.260
They're very open. But Republicans, of course, the media is not going to call her on it. So if the
00:30:21.520
media is not going to call her on it, and her political opponents won't call her on it, then
00:30:24.540
that's it. She's fine. And Republicans won't do that. They will not by name, they will not name
00:30:31.920
anti-white racism, and they will not name anti- especially anti-white male bigotry. They won't do
00:30:41.900
it. To their own detriment. Because, you know, they're afraid that if they do, they're afraid if
00:30:49.500
they get up there and they say, and they say, what we just heard is dehumanizing and bigoted
00:30:55.880
against white males. You know, white males, they are a group of Americans in this country. They
00:31:02.140
deserve to be defended. They don't deserve to be treated this way. The Republicans are afraid that
00:31:07.780
if they say that, that it's going to upset all the other groups that they're trying to win.
00:31:13.080
They're worried that it's going to alienate the black vote if they speak up for white males.
00:31:17.400
Which, by the way, like, even if it did from a political perspective, you know, as a Republican,
00:31:26.020
it's like, you're only going to win, you're only going to win a very small portion of the black vote
00:31:29.220
anyway. So even if it's true that it made your numbers go from 3% to 2%, politically, who cares?
00:31:37.500
Because the white male vote politically is more important to you because they're voting for you
00:31:41.740
in greater numbers. But more to the point, it's not true that it's going to alienate other groups.
00:31:49.680
Now, far-left activists, of course, if you speak up for white males, they're going to accuse you of,
00:31:53.840
well, you're saying that you, you're saying you don't hate white males? Well, that must mean that
00:31:57.820
you do hate black people. Yeah, far-left activists are going to play that game, but they're not going
00:32:02.920
to vote for you anyway. Who gives a damn what they say? Normal people aren't going to interpret it
00:32:08.220
that way. A normal black person, a normal woman, a normal person in any racial minority, they hear
00:32:15.520
you speaking up in defense of white males, especially when they're being degraded and dehumanized in that
00:32:21.160
way. Normal people in those groups, they're not going to, they're not offended by that. Of course
00:32:25.740
they're not. So you're not offending normal people, but you could actually be motivating white males,
00:32:35.140
which is an important voting block. It's a voting block that you need. If you don't have them, you
00:32:40.160
don't win. And that is also a voting block that has been demoralized and disenfranchised.
00:32:49.380
You know, this is one of the things that after 2020, we never talked about, you know,
00:32:56.340
because we talked about a lot of things with the election. We never actually talked about the fact
00:33:01.080
that, you know, Trump lost white males. He didn't lose them. He lost the, that white males were less
00:33:08.400
invested in that election than they had been in 2016. The numbers went down. We never had that
00:33:14.980
conversation. Um, which maybe we should. So maybe, maybe that's a group of people like
00:33:23.240
politicians specifically speak up in defense of every other group by name. They'll speak up for
00:33:30.360
black Americans. They'll speak up for women. They'll speak up for Asians. They'll speak up for every
00:33:34.600
group, but they will not speak up for white males by name. And it turns out that does have an effect
00:33:42.860
because when you've got a group of voters who feel like you don't give a crap about them,
00:33:47.660
that you won't even sit, you won't even acknowledge them by name. They're less motivated to vote for
00:33:53.900
you. It doesn't mean they're going to vote in Democrat. It just means that they're going to
00:33:58.020
stay home. They're not motivated. They don't feel represented. All right. What else do we got here?
00:34:08.460
Speak. Okay. Well, speaking of documentaries, since we're on the subject, maybe we should
00:34:11.660
mention this too. For this from the Daily Wire, the climate may be getting hot, but AOC's new movie
00:34:16.760
is most definitely not. Well done. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has a new documentary out
00:34:22.040
to the end. Um, and if movie theaters are paying attention to ticket sales, they realize it's already
00:34:27.400
run to the end. The flick opened on December 9th at 120 theaters. But since then it's made $9,667.
00:34:36.700
Okay. You know, it's about a week on over a hundred screens, it's made less than $10,000.
00:34:43.660
That is 80 bucks a screen. And let's say the tickets are 1625 as they are at Regal theaters.
00:34:49.340
That would equate to fewer than 600 people who actually saw it. So that's about, uh, do the math
00:34:55.500
on that. So that's like, um, just about five people, five or six people, a theater went to go see this
00:35:01.720
movie. Perhaps viewers just didn't want to sit through this. This is a, the movie synopsis says
00:35:07.240
stopping the climate crisis is a question of political courage and the clock is ticking
00:35:10.760
over three years of turbulence and crisis for young women fight for a green new deal and ignite
00:35:16.340
a historic shift in U S climate politics. Now the film drew 83% approval from a Rotten Tomatoes,
00:35:23.460
of course, but nobody actually wants to see this thing. And I know that you're really hoping that
00:35:29.080
you'll get a chance to watch the trailer of this because you're hearing the description.
00:35:32.080
You're thinking, I need to see some clips of this thing and don't worry. I got you covered. Uh,
00:35:39.940
Fighting for change politically requires faith.
00:35:45.060
We are building an army of young people to stop the climate crisis and create millions of good jobs
00:35:53.700
Everyone wants to talk about this dispassionately, but this is a world that I will raise my kids in.
00:35:59.080
The more centrist wing is arguing that they want to maintain the status quo.
00:36:07.080
This is going to be the moonshot of our generation.
00:36:10.940
Moments of crisis crack open the window of possibility.
00:36:18.520
Sometimes I feel like my job is to get my hands dirty.
00:36:32.320
We have tens of thousands of new people joining.
00:36:36.980
We're in the battle for the soul of the democratic party.
00:36:40.180
Make them feel like they're going to lose their seats if they don't support this.
00:36:53.080
I mean, nothing interesting in the film itself.
00:36:54.780
But first, the Democrat party just doesn't have any stars at all.
00:37:00.220
They don't have any interesting people in the Democrat party.
00:37:08.600
And yet, you know, she's probably the biggest star in the Democrat party.
00:37:14.600
She's not the one that has the most influence in Washington, for sure.
00:37:21.820
Most well-known, most famous, popular, I guess.
00:37:25.780
And yet still, she's the best they can do as far as that goes.
00:37:29.320
And yet, nobody cares because she's actually not interesting at all.
00:37:37.460
Part of the problem is that in order to be interesting, you have to have some rough edges.
00:37:41.940
You know, you need to have some aspects of yourself that aren't politically correct.
00:37:51.500
But when you perfectly fit yourself into this politically correct box,
00:37:58.740
It may make you above criticism in the mainstream, fine.
00:38:06.400
And also, the left, once again, as we see, they find it difficult to make films
00:38:11.300
that preach their message in an appealing and entertaining way.
00:38:16.220
They didn't always have this difficulty because the left has been,
00:38:18.840
the Hollywood has been left-leaning for decades.
00:38:21.640
And they've been putting out films that, you know, propagandize in their direction.
00:38:32.020
But they used to be able to do it in a way that people found interesting and found entertaining
00:38:43.440
Part of that is, like we always talk about, it's the kind of Christian film phenomenon
00:38:47.040
where they do the same thing in the reverse of what Christian films do.
00:38:55.800
They worry about getting the message across before they worry about actually putting out
00:39:02.580
I think also, you know, they don't think that the masses are worthy of being appealed to
00:39:14.260
They think almost like they would be beneath them to try to appeal to the masses.
00:39:23.800
They have too much contempt for the masses at this point to actually try to connect with them.
00:39:32.960
It says, science fiction is about to match up with reality as the world's first artificial
00:39:36.500
womb facility has been announced, where you'll be able to choose your baby's characteristics
00:39:42.380
Ecto Life, the brainchild of Berlin-based Hashem El-Ghali, a biotechnologist and science communicator,
00:39:51.720
is a concept based on over 50 years of groundbreaking scientific research.
00:39:55.220
In theory, they'll be able to grow 30,000 babies a year in their lab.
00:39:59.600
And he believes the facilities would allow infertile couples to conceive a baby and become the true
00:40:06.600
But they also plan to offer an elite package that would allow you to genetically engineer
00:40:10.440
the embryo before implanting it into the artificial womb, with everything from eye and hair color
00:40:15.360
to strength, height, and intelligence as choices.
00:40:19.180
Hashem explains, introducing Ecto Life, the world's first artificial womb facility, which is powered
00:40:24.740
According to the World Health Organization, around 300,000 women die from pregnancy complications.
00:40:28.600
Ecto Life, artificial womb, is designed to alleviate human suffering and reduce the chances
00:40:34.980
With Ecto Life, premature birth and C-sections will be a thing of the past.
00:40:39.620
And so they want to farm all this out, rather than doing it the old-fashioned way of having
00:40:48.120
We don't need to do that anymore because they'll have artificial wombs.
00:40:51.040
So you make the baby, you know, it's like baking a cake or something.
00:40:56.060
You mix all the ingredients together, pop it in the oven, and you can go live your life
00:40:59.920
while they grow the baby in the artificial womb.
00:41:03.380
You know, I'm skeptical about whether this technology will ever actually be functional,
00:41:10.340
or if it will just continue to exist in theory.
00:41:15.060
They've been talking about doing things like this for decades, and maybe they're closer now
00:41:18.720
than they've ever been, but I'm skeptical of that.
00:41:21.560
Either way, I will never fail to appreciate the irony that we are, as a culture, obsessed with
00:41:32.700
We're obsessed with that when it comes to items you find at the grocery store.
00:41:36.800
We're obsessed with finding things that are not genetically engineered, unless we're talking
00:41:46.400
As our food gets more organic, our manner of human reproduction, on the other hand, becomes
00:41:53.120
So we can see the value of doing things organically when it comes to food, when it comes to cosmetics,
00:42:01.340
But somehow, the very same people who see the value there, they can't see it when it comes
00:42:07.500
I mean, eventually, our salads will be more organic than the people eating them.
00:42:16.300
And I think many people on the left in particular can't see a problem with this, because they
00:42:23.840
don't have any concept of human dignity to begin with.
00:42:30.780
And so, for those of us who have a concept of human dignity, even if we struggle to articulate
00:42:36.540
what human dignity is or why it's important, because it's something that, you know, for
00:42:43.940
most of human history, it was not something that was fundamentally challenged.
00:42:52.240
Like, well, you have people that are just flat out denying that human dignity exists in the
00:43:00.120
And so, but those of us who innately recognize it, it can be hard for us to understand.
00:43:08.160
And we see something like this, and we just, because we innately recognize the value of
00:43:11.940
human dignity, we see something like this, and we immediately see it as horrifying.
00:43:16.160
You know, grow babies in an artificial womb and pick out what kind of people they're going
00:43:22.660
to be from a menu, and just, like, constructing them like Frankensteins.
00:43:31.300
But people on the left, they don't, because they don't see human dignity as a thing.
00:43:36.480
And, you know, human dignity is rooted in the fact that we are made in the image and likeness
00:43:43.620
But if you believe, as people on the left do, that there is no God, and that we are
00:44:01.060
And so, I can make a person in my image, because I am the God.
00:44:11.300
If you're a man, it's required that you grow a bit, hey, we're the sweet baby gang.
00:44:21.020
You know, women love getting new pajamas at Christmastime.
00:44:27.800
This year, I'm getting my wife a set of pajamas from their Naturally Nude line.

The texture and feel of these pajamas is so silky and smooth that I know she'll love them.
00:44:37.360
And if you have no idea what to get your girlfriend or wife this year, trust me, she wants these pajamas.

00:45:14.860
I'm alarmed that the Christian group was denied service, but at least they didn't give their good, hard-earned money to those haters.
00:45:21.640
I live in Brooklyn, and one time several years back, I overheard two 20-somethings saying that they didn't and wouldn't patronize a certain very popular diner because they found out that the owner donated to pro-life organizations.
00:45:34.660
This is something that's happening more and more.
00:45:38.620
It was revealed on Backstage last night, our Christmas Backstage episode, if you watched it, that this happened.
00:45:45.700
Now, we had our Christmas party a couple days ago, and I didn't go because my wife's very pregnant, and she didn't want to go.
00:45:55.560
I could have still gone by myself, but parties are bad enough.
00:45:59.380
If I'm going to go to one, I need my wife there.
00:46:05.120
So I couldn't go if she wasn't going, so I stayed home.
00:46:07.600
And so I found out about this after the fact, but apparently there was a nearby restaurant where some members of the Daily Wire were going to go, trying to reserve a table,
00:46:16.920
and were told by someone at the restaurant that essentially they're not welcome because they pose a, I think the phrase was, something like a danger to the staff.
00:46:31.720
So it seems to be happening with increasing regularity that people, whether because it's Christian or conservative, being denied service.
00:46:41.620
In this case, they'd already made the reservation, put down a deposit on it, told you're not welcome here.
00:46:54.520
I'm not aware of any case anywhere in the country of something similar happening on the left side or to the left side of a Christian or conservative business owner saying to a group of people, you know, to gay people,
00:47:11.640
we're not going to serve you because you're gay, or even going up to left wing activists and saying, well, because of your ideological convictions, I can't in good conscience serve you.
00:47:24.000
Gary Lancaster says, how can Media Matters watch Matt every day and not become fans?
00:47:34.840
Jenna says, what is your take on Knowles' tweet that he feels sorry for Sam Brinton?
00:47:45.620
He's not even welcome in restaurants, but he's nice also, and I'm not as nice.
00:47:51.360
I have to say that I don't feel sorry for Brinton.
00:47:54.420
I understand the point, and I've heard this from other people, too, that he's a pathetic figure, and he is.
00:48:03.240
He's mentally deranged, and he lives in a culture that encourages and foments that derangement rather than helping him deal with it.
00:48:09.860
And so he is a pathetic, pitiful, strange freak of a person, and so it makes sense to pity him.
00:48:24.680
But I don't, because I actually don't think that a guy like Brinton is crazy.
00:48:31.080
It's a reasonable theory that he's just mentally deranged and crazy.
00:48:40.220
And deviance is, well, deviance is deviant, but it's not the same thing as being delusionally insane, right?
00:48:53.300
If somebody's actually insane, we're not going to pass a moral judgment on them for being insane.
00:49:01.220
It is a moral choice to indulge your deviance the way that Sam Brinton has on the other hand.
00:49:07.580
So what I see rather is just a totally narcissistic guy who's chosen to act this way,
00:49:13.520
and he wants to act out his fetishes in public,
00:49:16.500
and he doesn't care how it makes anybody else feel, how uncomfortable it makes them.
00:49:20.540
He feels he's totally entitled to do whatever he wants.
00:49:23.840
Just someone who's totally consumed by their own sense of entitlement.
00:49:29.300
And so I have a lot, a much harder time pitying someone in that case, I think.
00:49:37.500
And finally, Joe says, Matt, a month later, do you think it was a good idea for Trump to announce early?
00:49:46.560
You know, we talked about this at the time when he announced his candidacy a month ago,
00:49:52.460
and I said it's definitely a risk because I understand the thought process.
00:49:57.820
The thought process is get out in front, try to crowd out the field before anyone else jumps in,
00:50:10.080
But the risk is that you get in so early, and now you've announced, and now you're in your campaign mode
00:50:16.620
because you've announced your campaign, and now you've got to keep the momentum going for, like, two years.
00:50:22.660
That's a long time to have to try to draw that momentum out.
00:50:26.220
And you also don't have any other candidates in the field yet.
00:50:33.940
So you've got to totally on your own generate this excitement and momentum and keep it going.
00:50:41.280
The worst thing you could do is announce your candidacy and then just sort of disappear, and all the momentum dies.
00:50:49.340
And it seems like that's more of what has happened so far.
00:50:55.960
Even Trump, it's just like, how do you keep the momentum going that long?
00:50:59.180
So I think, in the end, it seems to me to have been a miscalculation, but in effect, what it means is that he's going to have to sort of relaunch his campaign at a later date.
00:51:12.820
He's already announced it, but then you're going to have to kind of, once we get closer to it, he gets to a point where he can actually maintain the momentum, then sort of relaunch it.
00:51:22.760
Have you been procrastinating your holiday shopping until the last minute?

White guilt is a scourge in this country and a problem we often talk about on this show.
00:52:51.680
A video that recently went viral from TikTok seems to have captured this phenomenon,
00:53:01.520
While we're on the topic of how white people are just f***ing the world up for everyone,
00:53:11.180
There are only anti-racist white people and racist white people.
00:53:14.280
Anti-racism is a lifelong project, and the end goal is not for you to be good.
00:53:27.680
But if you are not out there every day actively trying to understand,
00:53:43.440
Don't sit out there in comments and say, we don't claim them.
00:54:04.060
I have, in fact, never done any of those things.
00:54:06.560
And of the people who have done them, they are not exclusively white, not even close.
00:54:10.980
In fact, when it comes to mass shootings and violent crime in particular,
00:54:13.640
white people are underrepresented as a group in that category.
00:54:15.980
As for slavery, forms of the practice do still exist in the world,
00:54:19.640
but they are happening in parts of the world with names like India and Africa and Southeast Asia.
00:54:24.500
These are not predominantly white areas of the globe, just to be clear.
00:54:28.220
But I'm not really interested in fact-checking this poor, unfortunate,
00:54:31.180
I'm assuming quite lonely, white guilt-plagued woman.
00:54:35.060
This actually is someone that I feel sorry for.
00:54:38.840
Needless to say, you know, she has no notion of what actually happens in the world,
00:54:44.760
Her grasp on history being even more precarious than her understanding of current events.
00:54:48.260
This is a person, like so many others in our culture, who exists in a bubble.
00:54:52.420
And the atmosphere inside that bubble is comprised almost entirely of self-loathing and narcissism.
00:55:01.820
And that's why I'd really like to use this lady as a case study
00:55:05.000
and conduct something of a psychological evaluation of the white guilt brigade.
00:55:10.480
Every member of the brigade is an individual brought to this sorry state
00:55:13.560
through their own relatively unique set of circumstances.
00:55:15.640
Yet, there are some obvious through lines here.
00:55:21.460
And we can see many of those things manifested in this video.
00:55:23.980
So let's go through this point by point, three points in particular.
00:55:27.800
First, white guilt can either be performative or sincere.
00:55:31.760
And sometimes, perhaps usually, a mix of the two.
00:55:34.320
The fully performative variety is usually found among the white people
00:55:37.680
who have gotten into the race hustling business
00:55:44.560
They're the ones who are giving DEI seminars and so on.
00:55:54.320
They're like the televangelists in the private jets.
00:55:56.760
They found a way to profit off of a belief system
00:55:59.400
that they probably don't subscribe to themselves.
00:56:02.780
But the disciples really do believe it, to some extent at least.
00:56:06.500
This woman, I'm going to assume, is not making millions,
00:56:08.920
selling anti-racism books or hosting anti-racism seminars.
00:56:11.800
She's the person buying the books and attending the seminars.
00:56:16.300
She's spending money on the racket, not making it.
00:56:20.420
And that's because, as you can tell just from that one-minute clip,
00:56:27.580
The anti-racism snake oil salesmen are exploiting the self-loathing of people like this.
00:56:38.260
She already hated herself before she ever discovered anti-racism
00:56:41.060
or learned the vapid, meaningless mantras like, do the work.
00:56:45.800
Anti-racism simply gave her a way of understanding her own self-loathing.
00:56:49.180
It gave her something to channel it into and through.
00:56:52.740
So what she gets out of the deal is, if not financial profit,
00:56:55.780
at least, and if not emotional stability or happiness,
00:56:58.580
at least she gets a feeling of unearned moral superiority.
00:57:05.280
But she also gets to feel superior to other white people
00:57:11.660
This is exactly the attitude that she's ranting against in the video,
00:57:14.700
but she is lecturing other white people for their feelings of superiority
00:57:17.480
while herself standing on a perch of moral superiority.
00:57:23.980
This is the reward that it offers to white disciples.
00:57:27.180
It will not make you feel better about yourself.
00:57:30.320
but it will at least make you feel holier than those other white scumbags.
00:57:35.420
Second, it's interesting to note how white women in particular
00:57:44.840
Most of these sorts of videos, and I've seen too many of them,
00:57:49.560
And if you talk to anyone who's ever been to an anti-racism seminar,
00:57:53.640
they will tell you that it's usually a majority women.
00:57:57.340
And I think that's because most obviously women tend to be more emotional,
00:58:02.880
You know, a man might sometimes complain about the overly emotional women in his life,
00:58:06.360
but the truth is that he wouldn't want it any other way.
00:58:09.140
His wife or girlfriend's emotional outbursts might annoy him sometimes,
00:58:12.220
but he certainly would rather she be emotional than cold and distant.
00:58:17.520
The things that frustrate us about each other the most
00:58:20.100
are the things that we love about each other the most.
00:58:23.900
But a woman's more emotional nature can make her easier to emotionally manipulate in this way.
00:58:29.460
And in particular, women are more naturally empathetic than men.
00:58:39.100
Yet, that empathy, if not properly calibrated and pointed in the right direction,
00:58:44.340
can be exploited and weaponized and turned against itself.
00:58:48.460
White guilt is, in part, a sort of misplaced, mangled, perverse, deranged form of empathy.
00:58:55.320
It's not entirely unlike, you know, the psychology that leads some women to strike up love affairs
00:59:08.160
Whether it's a man or a woman expressing their anti-racist white guilt,
00:59:12.840
what we're also seeing is the religious impulse at work.
00:59:16.740
This is maybe the most important point to understand.
00:59:18.500
There is no escaping the fact that man is religious by nature.
00:59:22.720
We naturally search for the transcendent truths that will give our lives meaning.
00:59:28.340
Not only that, but we naturally recognize our own sin, our own guilt.
00:59:33.240
And we look for ways of relieving ourselves of that burden.
00:59:44.080
Anti-racism provides an outlet for those desires.
00:59:50.400
But it's the sort of religion that non-religious secular liberals are stuck with.
00:59:56.220
The religion has borrowed, you know, the concept of, it borrows a lot of the concepts
01:00:03.420
So it can only borrow from what already exists.
01:00:06.180
In this case, it borrows the concept of original sin from Christianity
01:00:13.980
Of course, in Christian theology, original sin is guilt shared by all people everywhere.
01:00:24.280
But the leftist, anti-racist religion preaches about a flawed and fallen race,
01:00:32.300
We, white people, are the carriers of original sin.
01:00:35.480
While the other races are angelic, guiltless, uncorrupted beings.
01:00:49.220
And we will end up with one, one way or another.
01:00:53.300
And so, in some ways, this person being liberal, lonely, sad, self-loathing, and also a woman,
01:00:57.580
she was destined to fall into the anti-racism religion, the anti-racism cult.
01:01:03.820
It was always going to end up this way these days.
01:01:06.920
And yet, she is still today, I must say, in spite of that, canceled.
01:01:11.600
And that'll do it for this portion of the show as we move over to the members' block.
