Today on the Matt Wall Show, Stanford publishes an extensive list of benign everyday terms that are now considered offensive.
00:00:06.100
Meanwhile, a Canadian organization puts out an activity book to explain assisted suicide to children.
00:00:11.880
How are these two issues related? I'll explain.
00:00:14.080
Also, Zelensky gets a hero's welcome as he visits the United States to beg for more money, of course.
00:00:19.240
And parents at an all-ages drag show attempt to explain why they're choosing to expose their children to sexually explicit content.
00:00:28.600
We'll talk about all that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.
00:00:39.620

00:01:35.120
So you've probably heard about the new harmful language policy at Stanford University.
00:01:41.040
Much has already been said about it, but as usual, I think that people are missing the most important point.
00:01:47.160
So first, if you aren't familiar, let's get you up to speed.
00:01:49.980
Breitbart reports, quote, Stanford University published a list of words and phrases deemed harmful language.
00:01:56.400
The school plans to eliminate this language from its websites and computer code and also suggested words and phrases to serve as replacements.
00:02:02.860
Stanford's IT department recently launched its Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative, which is a multi-phase, multi-year project to address harmful language in IT at Stanford.
00:02:13.420
The goal of the Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative is to eliminate many forms of harmful language, including racist, violent, and biased, disability bias, ethnic bias, ethnic slurs, gender bias, implicit bias, sexual bias, language in Stanford website and code.
00:02:26.940
The guide reads, of course, the guide is largely made up of perfectly acceptable language used by Americans.
00:02:32.680
For example, it advises readers to say U.S. citizen instead of American because of how harmful that term is.
00:02:38.960
Before listing the harmful words in the replacements, the university issued a trigger warning, but even the term trigger warning has been deemed harmful, so the school instead used its replacement content warning.
00:02:49.180
And it says, content warning, this website contains language that is offensive or harmful.
00:02:54.020
Please engage with this website at your own pace.
00:02:56.740
From there, the so-called harmful language was broken up into 10 different categories, ableist, ageism, colonialism, culturally appropriative, gender-based, imprecise language, institutionalized racism, person-first, violent, and additional considerations.
00:03:12.640
Now, I read through the entire report, making sure to pace myself, as I was warned.
00:03:17.240
It took me about 18 hours because I had to keep stopping for mental health breaks.
00:03:21.360
I broke out into uncontrollable sobs at least a dozen times.
00:03:25.200
It was a deeply traumatic experience, but it was necessary and it was educational because you have to do the work.
00:03:32.260
And there are hundreds of banned words on this list.
00:03:36.100
I think it goes up to a thousand words or something.
00:03:38.520
And we can't go through them all, but we can highlight just a few.
00:03:42.420
So under the ableist category, we're told right off the top that addict is unacceptable.
00:03:48.100
It's suggested that instead we use person with a substance use disorder.
00:03:52.640
And the reason is that, as it explains, you should use person-first language.
00:03:57.080
This is also why person of color is acceptable, but colored person is considered unthinkably racist.
00:04:03.020
It's likewise recommended that you should not say gay person, but rather person of gayness.
00:04:09.760
I mean, that last one I made up, but that's the implications here.
00:04:11.720
Other ableist terms include basket case, which is a term offensive to both crazy people and basket weavers, I guess.
00:04:20.820
Blind study is no good, but because it furthers an ableist culture to say blind study.
00:04:28.900
Though I imagine that next year's edition will rule out masked study because it marginalizes people who wear masks, obviously.
00:04:36.000
And we should not say crazy, crippled, handicapped, lame, insane, mentally ill, or OCD.
00:04:44.320
On that last one, it suggested that instead of saying OCD, we say detail-oriented.
00:04:49.080
So, example sentence, Bob has locked himself inside his bathroom for 17 hours and is delusionally muttering to himself as he washes his hands over and over again until they bleed because he suffers from being detail-oriented.
00:05:02.380
And this is only a partial sample of the ableism category, and that's just the ableism category.
00:05:08.440
As we move on to ageism, we are commanded to stop saying senile.
00:05:12.700
Instead, it's recommended that we just use his name, Joe Biden.
00:05:16.000
In the colonialism category, we're informed, much to the surprise of everyone in the world, that the term Philippine Islands is racist.
00:05:25.140
And we should consider just saying Philippines instead.
00:05:30.280
Apparently, the Philippine Islands are, I don't know, self-conscious about being islands, having a bit of an inferiority complex because they're excluded from the main content.
00:05:38.180
And I don't know, and this is why it's best we don't call attention to it.
00:05:42.060
Then there is culturally appropriative language like brave, guru, chief, tribe, obviously.
00:05:49.880
There's gender-based language we shouldn't say, like ballsy, guys, ladies, mailman, man hours, man-made.
00:05:58.220
There's institutionalized racism language like black hat, black mark, black bald.
00:06:07.940
Grandfathered, uppity, none of those are any good.
00:06:10.700
And then there are just miscellaneous words that are offensive for reasons that can't possibly be explained, like convict, immigrant, prisoner, disabled person.
00:06:17.860
All of these words and terms are no longer acceptable, according to our cultural overlords.
00:06:22.980
And the words and terms that we are assigned to replace them with will become, in short order, unacceptable as well.
00:06:29.940
We must keep up to date on the language rules, follow the instructions.
00:06:35.080
And not because the instructions make sense, but simply because they are the instructions.
00:06:41.780
And that leads to the point that is often missed.
00:06:47.580
This kind of over-the-top speech policing, actually, it has very little to do with being sensitive.
00:06:53.320
This is the mistake that conservatives have always made, still make.
00:06:56.780
We're told that the term Philippine Islands has become arbitrarily offensive.
00:07:02.600
And we say something like, geez, people are so sensitive these days.
00:07:05.480
But it's got nothing to do with being sensitive.
00:07:09.520
Nobody is actually offended or hurt by any of the words on this list.
00:07:20.140
It's really not, it's kind of like the linguistic version of that scene in Cool Hand Luke,
00:07:25.360
where Paul Newman's character is forced to dig a ditch for no reason.
00:07:31.100
And then once it's dig, they tell him, Doug, they have to, they tell him he has to fill it back in again for no reason.
00:07:42.180
By forcing someone to do something totally pointless and arbitrary, you are controlling them.
00:07:48.240
And you are controlling them in the most humiliating and demoralizing way.
00:07:52.060
Paul Newman knew that there was no reason to dig the ditch.
00:08:01.020
It was a way of breaking his spirit, crushing his defiance, bringing him in line.
00:08:08.520
And that is why they do this obsessive language policing.
00:08:15.460
But it serves a deeper purpose, too, of course.
00:08:18.620
No, there's no reason why one term is suddenly considered offensive while another is appropriate.
00:08:23.880
No, there is absolutely no meaningful distinction between the banned phrase disabled person and the recommended phrase person with a disability.
00:08:32.920
And yet, through the force of sheer repetition, the person who abides by the language rules
00:08:42.020
will eventually begin to perceive reality in a way that conforms with the rules.
00:08:49.280
Most obvious example of this, of course, is the pronouns.
00:08:53.520
It is, as I already covered, demoralizing, humiliating, degrading, to be forced to play along with someone's gender charade by using their, quote, preferred pronoun.
00:09:02.760
Although the term for preferred pronoun, by the way, is also now not allowed.
00:09:09.960
You just call them pronouns because it's not a preference, right?
00:09:14.500
This is like, this is what someone is in their inner self.
00:09:19.960
And that demoralization, that humiliation, that degradation is a big part of the point.
00:09:26.560
But if that's all the left ever got out of it, they'd be happy.
00:09:31.920
They're degrading you, demoralizing you, controlling you.
00:09:37.320
The person who follows the rules, at first reluctantly and begrudgingly,
00:09:42.260
will often eventually begin to experience a change in perception.
00:09:45.760
As he degrades himself, so too does his ability to perceive objective reality become degraded as well.
00:09:52.720
So by controlling words, the left is also controlling minds.
00:09:56.760
In fact, Michael Knowles wrote a book on that subject, as you may have heard him mention, a time or two.
00:10:02.200
So this week, I think, provides us, we have this example from Stanford.
00:10:06.600
This is another example, though, that's far darker and not nearly as funny.
00:10:12.760
As you've heard on this show, Canada has recently set out to become the suicide capital of the globe.
00:10:18.660
Their medical assistance in dying program, MAID, as they call it,
00:10:22.720
casts a wide net, opening assisted suicide up to almost anyone, whether they're terminally ill or not,
00:10:33.840
And if you want to see how language is manipulated to change the way people perceive reality,
00:10:39.720
you can find no example more stark, more disturbing,
00:10:42.680
than with the propaganda that surrounds and promotes this MAID program.
00:10:48.680
Case in point, there's an organization called Canadian Virtual Hospice,
00:10:52.820
and they've published an activity book, as they call it, an activity book about suicide aimed at kids.
00:11:01.420
Now, aesthetically, the activity book looks like any other kid's activity book,
00:11:06.400
with a kind of childish font and lots of illustrations and so on.
00:11:10.300
Now, in saner times, you know, this would be, you see an activity book like this,
00:11:14.940
it would be an activity book teaching kids about the solar system or dinosaurs or something like that.
00:11:20.440
Instead, in this case, in our dystopia, it's teaching them all about the wonders of suicide.
00:11:26.720
But it's the language that is the most relevant for our purposes.
00:11:32.260
The term MAID is short for medical assistance in dying.
00:11:36.500
The word medical means the science of medicine, and assistance means help.
00:11:40.400
So MAID means that medicine is used to help someone with their death.
00:11:44.880
A doctor or nurse practitioner, a nurse with special training,
00:11:48.080
uses medicines to stop the person's body from working.
00:11:51.360
When their body stops working, the person dies.
00:11:53.880
This is done in a way that does not hurt the person.
00:11:56.300
The medicine helps them feel comfortable and peaceful.
00:11:58.280
A person has to ask for MAID and then goes through a bunch of steps before it can happen.
00:12:05.020
Well, next, it lays out the steps that are used to actually kill the patient.
00:12:09.600
And it says this in the activity book for children.
00:12:15.760
The first medicine makes the person feel very relaxed and fall asleep.
00:12:23.720
A coma looks like sleep, but it's much deeper than regular sleep.
00:12:26.360
The person will not wake up or be bothered by noise or touch.
00:12:30.580
The third medicine makes the person's lungs stop breathing, and then their heart stops beating.
00:12:35.280
Because of the coma, the person does not notice this happening and does not hurt.
00:12:39.300
When their heart and lungs stop working, their body dies.
00:12:44.640
This often happens in just a few minutes, but sometimes, rarely, it can take hours.
00:12:54.540
The person is not being given a toxic substance meant to kill them.
00:13:03.000
Of course, in truth, this is the opposite of medicine.
00:13:06.040
Medicine, by definition, is something meant to cure, treat, heal a person's body.
00:13:11.680
A substance which directly and intentionally kills the person is not medicine.
00:13:24.540
Even if you're deluded enough to support this barbarity, you should be honest about it.
00:13:35.220
You support doctors giving lethal doses of poison to their patients.
00:13:41.280
But to speak truthfully about it is to perceive it truthfully.
00:13:48.560
And that is precisely what the death cultists do not want.
00:13:56.620
Because we're not supposed to see anything for what it is.
00:14:03.080
Everything has to be shrouded under a layer of misleading jargon, otherwise known as lies.
00:14:07.980
And the jargon has to change constantly to keep people on their toes.
00:14:14.400
Very few people would go along with the left's agenda if they saw it and understood it for what it actually is.
00:14:21.620
So they cannot be allowed to see it and understand it for what it is.
00:14:35.440
If we're going to change the culture and the dominance of large corporations that actively work to quiet our beliefs,
00:14:41.100
we need to reassess our spending habits and start supporting like-minded companies.
00:14:44.960
That's why you need to switch to the pro-life, pro-family cell phone company, Charity Mobile.
00:14:49.380
Charity Mobile has the same great nationwide phone service and coverage of other carriers.
00:14:53.880

00:15:36.080
First of all, thank you to the ladies in the wardrobe department for my Christmas.
00:15:40.320
I'm not wearing a Christmas sweater, but I'm wearing my Christmas gift from them, you know, instead.
00:15:45.760
Which is, I don't even know if you can see it on camera.
00:15:47.120
I don't think you can, but it's my, it's a UFO sweater and a sweater with a UFO on it.
00:15:52.060
And I think that it was supposed to be some sort of gag gift.
00:15:55.340
But I, I mean, uh, this is not the first time this has happened to me that someone gives
00:15:58.880
a gift that's supposed to be a gag, but it's like unironically, I think it's great.
00:16:04.980
Um, let's, uh, start with something that I wish was a gag.
00:16:09.200
The president of Ukraine, Zelensky, visited the United States yesterday.
00:16:13.920
It was a time of, uh, great excitement for DC and for the media, though, not for anyone
00:16:21.400
Like no one else is excited about it, but they're excited about it.
00:16:24.520
Um, all of the Zelensky worship, most of it anyway, is, is, is relegated to those areas,
00:16:32.260
Um, Zelensky started the trip with a, with a, uh, a visit to the white house where he expressed
00:16:37.120
his appreciation to the American people for all, all the money that we've given him, all
00:16:52.280
My partners in support, thanks Congress and, and thanks from our just ordinary people to
00:17:01.840
your ordinary people, Americans, I really appreciate, I think it's very difficult to, to understand
00:17:12.760
what does it mean when we say appreciate, but, but you really have, have to feel it and thank
00:17:23.940
And, uh, yesterday I was on Donbass, in Baham, that is the place on the east of our country,
00:17:40.440
Like, can you, can you wear a suit for the, I mean, I, I, I'm not saying that Joe Biden
00:17:46.060
himself is, uh, worthy of any kind of special recognition like that, but you're visiting the United
00:17:56.820
The later he would speak in front of Congress, spoke in front of Congress without a suit on,
00:18:03.080
And you can't claim, see, usually when you, when you see this, he's doing all the interviews
00:18:06.560
and he's always got a t-shirt or sweater on, a sweatshirt on.
00:18:09.200
What we're told is, well, he's in the middle of fighting a war.
00:18:12.140
Well, but yeah, you, you flew in a plane over here.
00:18:16.540
And it really is, it, it, it, it really tells you something like that, that is a statement.
00:18:22.180
If you go to the White House and then speak in front of Congress and you can't even take
00:18:36.140
If you, if you really, if you're really grateful, then the first thing that you would do is think
00:18:42.260
How about, how about to put that gratitude on display?
00:18:50.480
Although he claims that he appreciates the help yet.
00:18:53.380
He was here to beg for more help, beg for more money, which led to his state of the Ukraine
00:19:02.240
The Congressional Chamber was abuzz with excitement on Wednesday evening in anticipation of Ukrainian
00:19:06.880
President Volodymyr Zelensky's, uh, Zelensky's addressing the body to ask Congress to make
00:19:11.400
good on President Biden's promise to deliver another $45 billion in funding to assist their
00:19:18.180
Zelensky was treated to uproarious applause from Congress as he took his place behind the
00:19:21.980
podium to address the senators and representatives.
00:19:24.380
Some members held up a Ukrainian flag and Zelensky could barely get started with his ask for
00:19:29.200
cash due to the extreme adulation showered upon him by American delegates.
00:19:33.580
He declined to wear a suit, stood before Congress in a sweatshirt.
00:19:37.240
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi presided over Congress along with Vice President Kamala Harris as
00:19:41.840
they looked on with glee at the coming of Zelensky, who Pelosi had likened to World War II era,
00:19:49.640
Pelosi silenced the room, then presented Zelensky for a second time to additional cheering,
00:19:55.120
Uh, and again, there were, there were, uh, there were some members that were flying Ukraine
00:20:02.680
And Zelensky went on to thank Congress for spending American taxpayer dollars to fund his
00:20:10.120
Congress chuckled, appreciating his ask for even more U.S. dollars and weapons.
00:20:16.280
So, so here is the front line, the tyranny, which has no lack of cruelty against the lives
00:20:27.440
And your support is crucial, not just to stand in such fight, but to get to the turning point
00:20:47.540
To ensure, Bahamut is not just a stronghold that holds back the Russian army, but for
00:20:57.980
the Russian army to completely pull out, more cannons and shells are needed.
00:21:04.240
If so, just like the Battle of Saratoga, the fight for Bahamut will change the trajectory
00:21:17.160
If your patriots stop the Russian terror against our cities, it will let Ukrainian patriots
00:21:35.500
Ukrainian patriots want to defend their freedom, and somehow that's our job and our responsibility.
00:21:39.720
They ended, of course, more applause, applause, applause.
00:21:43.700
And at the end, he snuck a little kiss with Nancy Pelosi.
00:21:58.300
I suppose there's no non-awkward way to kiss Nancy Pelosi, but if such a way existed, he
00:22:15.500
And then he gifted a flag to Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris that I guess they can split.
00:22:23.560
Put the flag in a shredder and then give little pieces of it to everybody so you can have a
00:22:30.180
I guess some Ukrainians signed the flag, which is, by the way, is like, not that I care if
00:22:36.500
you choose to desecrate your own flag, but that is flag desecration.
00:22:41.940
Okay, now, look, as far as Zelensky goes, if I were in charge, maybe I'd welcome him into
00:22:51.960
the country and then arrest him on suspicion of war crimes, potentially.
00:22:55.800
Because are we really just moving on from the fact that the Ukrainians fired a missile
00:23:02.600
into Poland a few weeks ago, killed two people, and then claimed it was sent by Russia in order
00:23:09.440
to hoax Western governments into a global nuclear war?
00:23:17.840
And the only way out of that, I mean, it's a fact that Ukraine, we have, there are facts
00:23:24.140
Fact is, missile was launched, killed two people in Poland.
00:23:28.940
Fact, Ukraine blamed Russia for it immediately and then used that as another argument for
00:23:36.260
Western governments getting involved, and so, and then, and then another fact is that actually
00:23:41.700
turns out that the missile was sent by Ukraine.
00:23:44.400
The only speculation here is whether they fired the missile intentionally as a false flag
00:23:51.040
operation, or if this was all some kind of mistake that they then blamed on Russia.
00:23:57.020
No matter how you slice it, it does not look good for Zelensky, and no matter how you slice
00:24:03.240
it, he was using this false claim to try to get America involved in a war that would kill
00:24:12.320
So that incident alone is enough reason to not celebrate this guy as a hero.
00:24:21.420
Yes, Ukraine is actively trying to get us involved in a war that will kill millions of our people.
00:24:27.160
Yes, Zelensky is, as he's been described, essentially an international welfare queen at
00:24:32.700
this point, begging us constantly for money and receiving it, billions of dollars, while
00:24:46.720
And we're taking food off of the table of our, you know, off of our children's plates and
00:24:58.280
Our cities look like, and basically are now, refugee camps, people sleeping in tents.
00:25:05.900
We've got these makeshift shanty towns in the middle of the street in major American cities
00:25:10.920
made out of cardboard, fentanyl zombies staggering around.
00:25:17.760
We've got kids graduating high school that can't even read.
00:25:20.980
And we're sending money to one of the most corrupt governments in the world, in Ukraine?
00:25:36.800
But even if it wasn't, okay, even if Ukraine was a wonderful country with an honest and
00:25:42.420
trustworthy government and Zelensky was as, let's say Zelensky was as saintly a figure as
00:25:49.600
they paint him to be, that would still change nothing about my perspective of the situation.
00:25:56.720
And my perspective has always been the same from day one, that this is not our fight.
00:26:05.860
Now, you remember when this all started months and months ago, I was willing to admit, I think
00:26:11.600
I'm probably one of the few people in media, one of the few commentators or pundits that
00:26:15.680
admitted from the beginning, I don't know very much about this situation, okay?
00:26:20.760
Before all this happened, I spent maybe a cumulative amount of like one minute of my life thinking
00:26:31.060
Because I'm focused on issues in America, I'm not thinking about Ukraine, I'm not worried
00:26:37.140
And what led up to this conflict and everything going on behind the scenes and all that, I
00:26:43.340
Which is true of 99.9% of the people in this country and 99.9% of the pundits and commentators.
00:26:49.820
It's just that most people in that class won't admit it.
00:26:52.080
Like as soon as something happens, they all become experts on the subject, hoping that
00:26:57.920
the audience will never stop to ask them like, when did you, you've never talked about this
00:27:06.380
So I said from the beginning, I don't know anything about this.
00:27:08.660
So, as I said from the beginning, like if it will, if this is actually important to average
00:27:19.420
Americans, okay, if the outcome of this fight could have some direct, immediate, quantifiable
00:27:26.700
impact on average Americans, such an impact that we need to worry about this or even get
00:27:31.000
involved by sending money or manpower, then explain it to me.
00:27:47.840
But if you're someone who's hanging, put a Ukraine flag in your bio and all this kind
00:27:51.620
of stuff, and you think that we should care, that average American families ought to care
00:27:56.600
about what's happening in Ukraine, go ahead and make your case.
00:28:01.860
And they've had months and months to explain it, and they can't.
00:28:12.120
Basically, there are two talking points that hope to justify why Americans should be spending
00:28:18.560
billions and sending billions and billions of dollars there, potentially getting involved
00:28:22.020
militarily, as many people in our country, or at least in the governing class, have called
00:28:32.400
One is the utterly fantastical, absurd speculation that Putin, that this is just the first phase
00:28:42.720
in a potential war of global conquest, and that Putin's going to move on from Ukraine and
00:28:52.880
Next thing you know, he's going to be invading France, and it's going to be World War II all
00:28:58.860
That obviously was absurd from the beginning, and it hasn't happened.
00:29:02.660
Putin is not going to be—we're not going to see Russian ships landing on our shores.
00:29:11.140
So if that's not happening, then the only other justification we ever hear is just this
00:29:24.660
It's like all these kind of vague, sort of ambiguous ideas about freedom and just sort
00:29:30.060
of what's—these are good people that are being victimized.
00:29:32.560
Well, if that's all you got, then only once again for the umpteenth time confirms my immediate
00:29:42.400
instinctive reaction to this, which is it's not our fight.
00:29:48.800
There are—you know, someone said to me on Twitter yesterday, they said, well—and I've
00:29:53.960
heard this a lot, you know—Russia is invading Ukraine, and it's happening whether you like
00:30:06.700
There are bloody conflicts happening all over the world every day.
00:30:18.000
What about all of the wars of conquest and conflicts and all that sort of thing happening
00:30:29.860
Groups of people warring against each other, trying—fighting over land and all the resources
00:30:42.260
What—could you even describe what's happening there?
00:30:48.020
So it's happening all over the world, and yet this one particular—and no one says we should
00:30:52.240
pick a side in most of those, yet in this one particular conflict, we have to pick a
00:31:04.580
It's because the TV—it's because the media has selected this one conflict.
00:31:09.660
They selected this one and said, this is the one that you care about.
00:31:12.320
And then a lot of unthinking Americans said, well, then I care about that one.
00:31:23.420
If Ukraine cannot defend itself and preserve its own existence, then it won't exist.
00:31:30.800
That's just—countries have to be able to live and die of their own volition at a certain point.
00:31:42.040
That's the law of—you know, that's the law of the jungle.
00:31:45.900
That's the way—like it or not, that's the way it goes.
00:31:48.480
If you want to exist as a country, you have to be able to defend yourself and your own interests.
00:32:03.740
It's from the Post Millennial and other outlets are reported, too.
00:32:07.340
Eight teenage girls have been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of a 59-year-old Toronto man.
00:32:13.300
According to the Toronto Police Services, the teen swarmed the man and stabbed him multiple times before fleeing the scene.
00:32:20.220
He was rushed to the hospital and passed away as a result of his injuries.
00:32:22.980
The incident took place just around midnight on Sunday, December 18th, in Toronto, downtown Toronto.
00:32:31.460
Three 13-year-olds, three 14-year-olds, and two 16-year-olds were located nearby and promptly arrested.
00:32:37.820
So, you know, and we still don't know exactly what precipitated this or what it exactly was, but a group of girls, teenage girls, kids swarmed this guy and stabbed him to death.
00:32:53.100
And I bring this up because it's another example of a point I try to make often on this show, which is that we, you know, we hear so much about hate crimes.
00:33:03.020
But we don't have a hate crime problem in this country, or Canada in this case.
00:33:14.100
Here you've got a bunch of teen girls, a bunch of kids, swarming and stabbing a man to death.
00:33:23.860
But underneath it, I would not call it hate, most likely.
00:33:31.860
This is the case for so much of the brutality in the inner city, the brutality gripping our communities.
00:33:37.380
Also, it's the case for many of the mass shootings that we see.
00:33:40.700
With these kinds of culprits, it's almost like hatred would be a step up.
00:33:48.500
It is, you know, there's—if somebody is hateful, there's, like, something you can work with there.
00:33:59.200
And he does the wrong things with those feelings.
00:34:03.760
That's not what we see these days out in the streets.
00:34:07.100
What we see these days are people who just feel nothing at all.
00:34:16.000
Just the real crisis is a lack of human conscience.
00:34:20.580
And it has reached a real crisis level, especially in the cities.
00:34:29.160
And we know, just as in that story, when kids are left alone on an island without any guidance from their parents, they turn into savages.
00:34:41.560
As a fallen species, savagery is what you descend into.
00:34:45.760
So we need strong families, strict discipline, clear guidance, you know, a foundation of faith and moral formation in order to grow beyond those impulses and develop into decent, civilized adults.
00:35:04.760
But that's not happening in so many of these communities, and this is the result.
00:35:09.160
All right, let's do something a little bit less serious here.
00:35:14.560
It's a controversy with slightly smaller stakes.
00:35:18.920
It's a video of a Karen, and that's how it's labeled anyway.
00:35:24.040
That's what—and this is one of the most popular genres of videos on social media are the supposed, you know, quote-unquote Karen videos.
00:35:31.020
And it's a video of a Karen, a white woman, being put in her place, allegedly, getting her comeuppance.
00:35:40.040
And for those not watching the video podcast, what the video shows, it shows this woman, this alleged Karen, in a confrontation with a neighbor in her apartment complex through—
00:35:50.500
and this confrontation is happening through the ring doorbell camera.
00:35:53.960
He never comes to the door to actually talk to her.
00:35:56.620
But he confronts her because she apparently was messing with his welcome mat.
00:36:00.280
He had a welcome mat outside of his door, but it had a profanity on it.
00:36:04.700
From what I read, it was like it said F off, I think, in big block letters.
00:36:08.760
And she didn't like that, so she flipped the mat over so that the words weren't seen.
00:36:13.920
He was very upset about that, and it led to this exchange, which we'll watch a quick piece of that.
00:36:42.520
That does not give you the right to touch anything on my damn porch.
00:36:45.280
You can go up there and tell your goddamn husband to come see me when I come home.
00:36:51.480
Make sure you're there, ma'am, so you come down and talk.
00:37:12.060
Look, I'm not trying to be ugly, and I'm not trying to cause any scene with you whatsoever.
00:37:23.500
To me, having the F word on your doormat is not respectful of anyone that lives here.
00:37:29.620
And it's not respectful of you to touch my property.
00:37:39.700
I don't know what made you change it to something so ugly as that, but I'm not going to know.
00:37:50.880
First of all, this woman has not done or said anything that deserves to be labeled Karen.
00:38:01.880
Because Karen, it is simply a racist smear against white women.
00:38:08.680
And so if you're one of those people that goes around using the term, just stop using it.
00:38:19.760
It was originally a slur by black people on social media to smear and make fun of white women.
00:38:29.780
And now it's at a point where it's just like, if you're a white woman between the ages of 40 and 80,
00:38:33.800
then you automatically fall into that category.
00:38:36.140
And anything you do, if you, God forbid, get upset about something, you're automatically a Karen.
00:38:40.620
And it's, you know, I don't, my mom is in that category of being a woman between those ages, a white woman.
00:38:46.280
And so I'm actually not okay with hating an entire demographic of people like this.
00:38:52.300
And I don't quite understand why people just accept that.
00:38:59.440
And because we all know that if we started referring to black women with a stereotypical name, okay,
00:39:07.460
if I saw a video of an angry black woman and said like, oh, it's Shaniqua over there.
00:39:14.740
If I said that, it would be judged horrifically racist.
00:39:28.460
And you got a bunch of henpecked, cowardly white people who go along with it.
00:39:33.380
It's like, well, it's not the same thing at all.
00:39:40.560
Now, second, any reasonable person knows that you are wrong if you go out of your way to put a sign with huge profanities on it right where kids are walking around.
00:39:55.780
But some people are saying, well, she should have handled it differently.
00:39:59.060
She should have gone to the property manager or whatever.
00:40:03.840
If that was me, I would have picked the mat up.
00:40:07.760
And I would have thrown it away is what I would have done.
00:40:16.300
I'm fine with people taking matters into their own hands like this.
00:40:26.480
This is a good warning for all of anyone out there who thinks it's fun to be just an obnoxious jerk with no class and no dignity and no decorum and no sense of basic responsibility.
00:40:39.460
You know, for the fact that you're an adult in society and there are kids around.
00:40:46.720
It's just everything's vulgar and ugly and our kids are exposed to it and it's everywhere.
00:40:52.720
It's just you see this thing, this stuff everywhere.
00:40:54.340
And now this guy, this freaking guy has decided to put it on his welcome mat.
00:40:59.820
Like, can I walk down the hallway in the apartment complex without seeing this stuff?
00:41:12.660
And they're not going to go through the proper channels.
00:41:15.260
You go through the proper channels and nothing happens.
00:41:18.880
You know, the guy there in the apartment, clearly it's a black guy.
00:41:28.980
And so it's automatically there's the racial dynamic.
00:41:31.360
And she goes and she goes to the property manager.
00:41:35.760
The next thing I'm going to tell, it's like, well, your concerns don't matter because now there's the competition of identity demographics here.
00:41:45.120
And, you know, so people don't want to go through the proper channels anymore.
00:41:54.200
I think it was from a few months ago of a guy on a plane with a big, with a sweater that said F, F Biden on it.
00:42:03.060
But it actually said the word, you know, the F word in big block letters.
00:42:07.320
And he was, and they were, in the video, they're trying to throw him off the plane because they've got policy against having, it's not about, you know, it's not about defending Biden.
00:42:22.520
You can't walk in here with, with huge profanities on your clothing.
00:42:28.080
But even that, there's people on the internet are defending it.
00:42:37.160
How about just a basic level of decency is, is all is being asked for.
00:42:49.020
You walk around like that, you know, you're, you're, you're lucky if you just get thrown out.
00:42:52.280
Eventually you can be, people are going to, you're going to get a, you're going to get a punch right in the face of what's going to happen.
00:42:55.500
Because people, people are so tired of it, especially parents fed up to get this ugliness and this vulgarity everywhere all the time.
00:43:09.840
And these people that are just, they, they, they, they feel like they're, they're, they're not responsible to anyone.
00:43:20.680
I think it was like three, but even so, we're going to move on now to the comment section.
00:43:25.500
If you're listening to this show, odds are that you put a lot of stock into how you raise your kids.
00:43:38.000
You understand that your children look to you to define their values and their perspectives of the world.
00:43:42.420
That's why it's extremely important that you have a will in place.
00:43:45.600
A will also determines how you, how your financial assets are dispersed as well as your personal property.
00:43:50.580
It lays out your healthcare power of attorney to ensure that your end of life decisions are carried out.
00:43:55.340
You're just starting out and you don't have thousands of dollars to spend on an attorney,
00:43:58.560
but you want to make sure that your savings, your belongings, and your family are all protected.

00:44:26.960
Maybe this knowledge will inspire the sweet daddy to finally dance for us.
00:44:31.260
That's not, no, that's not, the plural of Walsh will be what?
00:44:38.680
Jordan L says, Matt definitely plays on the floor with Legos and Star Wars action figures after all his kids go to bed.
00:44:44.580
Uh, I, I, you know, I, I, I'll play with those toys with my kids.
00:44:51.000
We've never actually been a big Lego house, um, which, uh, you know, I think it's one of the more wholesome and constructive toys that a kid can play with, but my kids have never gotten into it that much.
00:45:01.140
Actually, um, Stephen says, Matt, I agree with your stance on big pharma, but long COVID is very real.
00:45:07.240
I'm an engineering student and over the last year, I've noticed a severe decline in my health and subsequently my academic performance after having had COVID twice.
00:45:15.860
I can't get through my day, sometimes falling asleep at my desk for up to three times a day.
00:45:19.400
My resting heart rate, sometimes, um, resting heart rate on average is the mid nineties and peaks at about 180 when I go upstairs.
00:45:26.160
The worst and most frustrating symptom for me is the, uh, is in fact the brain fog.
00:45:30.200
I can't think clearly enough to do math that I've been able to do since fifth grade.
00:45:34.520
Uh, I can't keep more than two numbers in my head at the same time.
00:45:38.660
I jumble them around so much so that my friends notice and make fun of me for it.
00:45:43.580
They've run every test on me possible from every blood test out there to an MRI of my brain,
00:45:50.660
And I haven't been able to find anything out of the ordinary besides the possibility of long COVID.
00:45:54.180
I don't know what to do about it, but, uh, my doctor has been giving me a medication to help with the fatigue,
00:45:58.820
but I'm still struggling greatly with the brain fog.
00:46:01.020
It's the most frustrating experience perhaps in my entire life.
00:46:04.740
Um, interested to hear your thoughts, SPG for life.
00:46:08.780
I'll, I'll give you my thoughts and look, I'm not saying that what you're experiencing is not real.
00:46:16.500
Obviously you're experiencing that and it's a real thing, but, and can I sit here and certainly rule out with,
00:46:24.540
with absolute certainty, the possibility that it's tied to having had COVID?
00:46:29.540
But what I can say is that like what you're describing,
00:46:32.380
there are literally dozens of plausible reasons why you could be experiencing all of that.
00:46:40.200
Um, in fact, there are not only that, but there are dozens of plausible reasons why anyone in society
00:46:45.740
would be experiencing the things that you're experiencing.
00:46:56.120
Uh, this is just, this isn't, you know, these are experiences that are increasing in society in general,
00:47:03.640
And part of the reason is that we, that's, that's the world we live in now.
00:47:06.940
I mean, we live in a world, how much time do you spend staring at screens every day?
00:47:11.120
We live in an overstimulated, oversaturated society.
00:47:15.760
And, uh, it makes, it makes it so people can't focus on things for as long as they used to.
00:47:23.640
Otherwise we get bored and start falling asleep and, you know, feeling foggy,
00:47:29.240
So that's, that's just like the general, uh, environment that we're all living in now.
00:47:37.460
So is that the 100% explanation for what you're going through?
00:47:45.400
I can't say that, but I do know that it's, that's certainly a factor.
00:47:51.300
Um, that's, that's one of the reasons, you know, ADHD.
00:47:54.960
The other thing is a lot of what you've described also gets labeled ADHD, which is why now, at least
00:48:01.340
from that one study, they want to start treating the long COVID quote unquote with ADHD medicine.
00:48:09.240
When you hear people say, well, I can't, I can't focus on anything.
00:48:16.760
When we live in a, we live in a culture that is designed to distract you every second of the day,
00:48:22.860
we are all surrounded by distractions every second of the day.
00:48:27.320
You carry distraction around with you on your person, right?
00:48:33.480
So you, you literally carry a distraction device around with you.
00:48:39.200
And then we sit here and say, I don't know why I'm so distracted.
00:48:41.140
This is just to illustrate the point that there are so many factors and what you're
00:48:47.840
talking about is, is so, although it's real, it's also so kind of vague and generalized that
00:48:54.240
to point to any one explanation, like, well, you had COVID to me, it seems like there's,
00:49:01.780
there's no way that they could prove that connection and they haven't.
00:49:05.500
And so it's just kind of a, an assumption, maybe has something to do with the fact that you
00:49:09.680
COVID, how, how exactly, how is it that having COVID would then cause you?
00:49:15.500
So if you're, if you're distracted right now and you had COVID nine and a half months ago
00:49:20.020
and they want to say, well, the COVID is what caused that.
00:49:24.980
What's the mechanism by which COVID nine and a half months ago can still be making you
00:49:36.460
And I think it's an assumption, I think it's an assumption that we should be skeptical about
00:49:41.400
until, and if they can present hard evidence and proof and say, yes, COVID causes this.
00:49:57.040
Um, Mike says, Matt, as a hater of all things that other people like, that's not entirely
00:50:07.180
I assume you will agree that Christmas story is overrated.
00:50:14.500
In fact, I think Christmas story is rated exactly as it should be.
00:50:19.760
Um, I think it's, uh, for my money, you know, it's, some people say it's a wonderful life
00:50:25.620
And I can see that, but a Christmas story is the best Christmas movie.
00:50:29.140
It is, uh, it is, it is rewatchable, you know, and it just, it, it, it's a, it's a great
00:50:36.760
Um, and it's funny, it's amusing, it's all these kinds of different things.
00:50:44.020
But it also has, it just has this, this quality to it that it's, it's, it's kind of hard to
00:50:49.700
I think that that's the case also with really good Christmas songs.
00:50:53.340
And there hasn't been a good Christmas song made in like 30 years, if not longer.
00:50:58.280
They made a lot of different Christmas songs, but you hear all the modern ones.
00:51:02.320
You hear any Christmas song that somebody, some pop star made two years ago.
00:51:06.340
And you hear it and you're like, uh, it just doesn't, doesn't have that Christmas feel
00:51:10.240
I can't really explain it, but it's not there for this.
00:51:14.420
Um, and that's the same is true for a lot of Christmas movies, but Christmas story has
00:51:22.220
And so I've, I don't know, I've seen, I've probably seen it 50 times and I enjoy it every
00:51:30.900
Finally, Sky says, you truly are a crusader on porn, Matt.
00:51:35.700
I can't get that worked up about adults looking at porn online.
00:51:42.020
I remember when you had to, uh, when we had to fight for years just to be able to look
00:51:46.060
at a naked woman in the magazine, it was a battle that lasted for decades.
00:51:52.320
You're fighting for decades to look at naked women in a magazine.
00:51:57.160
Do you ever think about just like getting married?
00:51:58.740
Um, I don't see throwing my, that freedom away because, uh, it, because it, it offends
00:52:11.180
But in a free society, there are a lot of bad things.
00:52:15.280
You know, sir, I don't even know where to begin here.
00:52:17.520
First of all, what freedoms am I talking about taking away here?
00:52:21.520
Now, it's true that, that as I happily admit, I am in favor of just getting rid of all pornography,
00:52:29.860
I absolutely reject the claim that pornography is free speech.
00:52:35.040
You know, having sex with someone on camera is not speech.
00:52:38.060
Whether or not you're saying something while you do it, it is not speech.
00:52:41.380
There's no like message or opinion you're expressing.
00:52:48.420
But that's not what we were talking about this week, was it?
00:52:51.480
We were talking about putting basic parameters in place to protect kids from it.
00:52:56.160
We were talking about, you know, age verification for websites.
00:53:03.980
Describe, so your, your freedom, your right, your right to look at and have access to an unlimited
00:53:11.560
supply of free pornography that doesn't require you to verify your age.
00:53:25.320
Is it, does it take away your freedom when you have to show your ID when you, before you
00:53:34.260
You know, if, if you, if you, you have to produce age verification to gamble at a casino or online,
00:53:41.580
is that a, is that take, my freedoms are under assault.
00:53:50.160
You know, if you want to buy a cigar, a 13 year old can't go in to the cigar shop and buy
00:53:58.120
Are you going to show up to the cigar shop with the, with the picket signs?
00:54:05.620
It's just with this, it's, it's with this one particular thing that it's in a, it's an
00:54:12.720
If there are any parameters put in place at all, it's like, this would require almost
00:54:20.480
All it would require, it would require like, however, however long it takes you now to access
00:54:27.100
If we put these things in place, it would take you, I don't know, an additional seven,
00:54:32.700
seven seconds, but you're not willing to spend that seven seconds just for the sake of protecting
00:54:39.180
Yeah, children shouldn't see it, but I, children should see it, but I will do absolutely not
00:54:43.300
one single solid thing to make sure that they can't.
00:54:54.340
Whenever I get into a spat with someone on Twitter over something I supposedly tweeted,
00:54:58.160
it's, it's usually because they didn't actually read what I wrote.
00:55:03.780
It's a lost art across the entire country these days, but that's not the case on Daily
00:55:08.120
Ben Shapiro's book club is back tonight at 8 p.m., uh, 7 p.m.
00:55:14.740
This month's book is The Screwtape Letters by C.S.
00:55:18.620
You can tune in to hear, uh, Ben discuss the novel and share his notes with you.
00:55:22.240
You gotta be an all access member to join in though.
00:55:24.260
If you want to join the fun, head to dailywire.com slash Walsh to become a member today and join
00:55:33.540
Yeah, I figured it'd be nice, uh, and nicely in keeping with one of the major and most unfortunate
00:55:42.520
themes of the year if the final daily cancellation of the year was dedicated to the groomers.
00:55:47.160
In fact, because I'm a fair person today, we're going to give the groomers a hearing.
00:55:53.980
We are going to listen to whatever arguments they might be able to put forward in their
00:55:58.820
Um, I have long believed that it's not possible for us to make a more compelling case against
00:56:02.740
leftism than the leftist makes himself against himself.
00:56:06.540
If you simply let him speak, that was the idea behind my film.
00:56:09.980
And today we will apply it to this specifically to the suddenly quite common phenomenon of
00:56:15.700
Last week, we told you about the all ages drag show in Texas covered by a journalist named
00:56:21.220
It was a Christmas themed show, which is currently touring the country and which includes graphic
00:56:26.160
talk about sex, graphic performances of simulated sex, uh, half naked and nearly fully naked
00:56:32.400
men parading in front of the crowd, cross-dressing men with fake breasts, et cetera.
00:56:36.620
It is graphic, it's sexual, it's obscene, and it's advertisers to all ages.
00:56:43.340
Well, it can't obviously, but the left is giving it their best try as typified by this
00:56:47.600
Twitter thread from a so-called investigative journalist named Steven Monicelli.
00:56:52.600
It's very important to Steven apparently that he defend the honor of half naked cross-dressers
00:56:57.160
who perform simulated sex acts in front of elementary schoolers.
00:57:01.240
He's very passionate about allowing these sorts of displays.
00:57:05.380
And he posted a lengthy Twitter thread with that goal in mind.
00:57:12.020
Right-wing activists working with the Blaze TV and Texas Family Project must have realized
00:57:16.060
that protests outside of drag shows, which often feature sexual language and are always
00:57:19.880
outnumbered but don't look great, uh, don't, don't look great.
00:57:22.960
So they've taken the tactic of filming drag shows for selective outrage.
00:57:26.180
Hanson and Sarah Gonzalez from the Blaze are happy to play fast and loose with the facts.
00:57:31.840
Hanson claims the drag show that is touring Texas right now is family-friendly.
00:57:42.660
Here's another piece of info about the show that's touring Texas right now, spotted by Parker
00:58:05.780
In fact, Stephen, in an attempt to defend the sexual performances for children, has only
00:58:09.860
somehow succeeded in making them seem even worse than they originally, than we originally
00:58:15.560
He thinks that it gets the drag show off the hook to point out how it advertises the fact
00:58:21.440
But because he's a creepy degenerate himself, he doesn't see the problem with putting the
00:58:26.560
phrases adult content and all ages welcome on the same poster.
00:58:32.740
The fact that they acknowledge up front that the event is sexual in nature and yet still
00:58:37.340
make sure to note how all ages are welcome only makes the pedophilic grooming nature of
00:58:42.900
the whole affair all the more explicitly and horrifically clear.
00:58:45.800
Because keep in mind something, the defense up until now has been that drag shows aren't
00:58:56.880
Now they admit that they are adult-oriented, but that's okay because it says adult-oriented
00:59:05.380
So once again, we go from that isn't happening to it is happening and it's good.
00:59:13.980
This is always the trajectory every single time.
00:59:17.120
Stephen compares this to an R-rated movie, once again defending it in terms that only prove
00:59:22.320
the opposite of the point that he's hoping to make.
00:59:24.140
Also, although you technically can bring a child to an R-rated movie, nowhere on any R-rated
00:59:33.220
movie's poster or in its promotional material will you ever see the words, all ages welcome.
00:59:39.900
If the movie Eyes Wide Shut came out in theaters tomorrow and in all the previews it said, all
00:59:45.760
ages welcome, we would agree that it's a major problem and extremely creepy at a minimum.
00:59:56.340
After all, the other side of this debate has now reached the point of outright defending
01:00:04.720
Yes, the drag performers themselves deserve all the scorn and contempt that we can heap
01:00:08.840
on them, but the parents who actually bring their children to these events deserve even
01:00:15.980
How can they, you know, what can they say for themselves?
01:00:19.500
Well, fortunately, the aforementioned Sarah Gonzalez, who has been doing a lot of great
01:00:23.600
work and important work on this issue, was on the scene for this one drag show in Texas
01:00:28.620
and she asked the parents themselves why they're bringing their kids.
01:00:36.180
Do you find this to be age appropriate for your children?
01:00:39.960
I mean, I'm a little more, I'm not as conservative, but I mean, really, it's not any different
01:00:48.240
than, I mean, Disney, and Disney, they have similar things.
01:00:54.300
I had sex with my father's boss in my father's office.
01:01:01.280
Do you find this to be age appropriate for children?
01:01:17.700
She knows about sex and, I mean, she doesn't see sex.
01:01:22.780
Yeah, well, I mean, she kind of sees simulated sex in the show.
01:01:32.840
Do you think it's exposing sex to them too young?
01:01:37.040
Honestly, because there's, there's like, this is a little bit more forward, but there's,
01:01:41.160
there's innuendo and all that kind of stuff in Disney.
01:01:43.600
I mean, Shrek, I mean, they're talking about, are you compensating for something?
01:01:47.340
There's a lot of things that they don't necessarily get.
01:01:53.680
I mean, it is sexualized, but, like, I, it's, it's, it is what it is.
01:01:57.780
I just think it's the stigma around it that's, you know, which they don't care.
01:02:09.200
You know, it's just, it's just, that's not any different than, you know, straight people.
01:02:21.200
So you don't worry that this is, like, ruining her innocence or anything?
01:02:26.360
No, she needs to know what's appropriate and know when to say, you know, consent and what's
01:02:37.580
And how will she know that if she doesn't see it in a safe way?
01:02:44.720
So her argument is that kids are going to eventually be exposed to cross-dressing fetishists
01:02:50.060
who simulate sodomy on each other anyway, so it's best to introduce them to it in a safe
01:02:57.400
In other words, according to her, kids are going to be sexually harassed and sexually
01:03:01.460
groomed, so you might as well facilitate their abuse yourself.
01:03:06.560
If you were wondering what these parents could possibly say for themselves, what defense they
01:03:10.340
could possibly offer, how they could ever manage to justify their parenting choices, well,
01:03:17.680
The job of a parent, of course, is to fight tooth and nail to preserve your child's innocence,
01:03:24.640
protect their heart, protect their soul, protect their minds, not feed them to the lions intentionally
01:03:29.980
because you figure that they're going to be consumed eventually anyway.
01:03:34.240
But these are parents who don't care about protecting their children, obviously.
01:03:36.740
To them, the most important thing is to signal their leftist enlightenment to the world.
01:03:40.820
And what better way to do that than to offer up your own to the LGBT groomers, putting
01:03:56.920
That is why these parents and everyone else involved ultimately claim the honor of being
01:04:06.140
And that'll do it for this portion of the show as we move over to the members block.
