00:08:54.740And you will still have up to an 85 percent likelihood of being obese because your parents are.
00:09:00.680You may do everything right and still wake up one morning like Tim Allen in the Santa Claus, suddenly morbidly obese with a white beard and flying reindeer parked in your front yard.
00:27:49.820Face on this scary transgender woman who was misgendered.
00:27:56.500And despite threats of violence, Wood says she's not scared.
00:28:00.380You know, I, I know how to give an insult out and I know what areas to kick and punch,
00:28:05.500you know, at least enough to be able to run till I can get to my car and get out of here.
00:28:09.720And at the meeting, she'll have the support of her aqua sisters.
00:28:13.700My husband and I are thinking about putting some signs together that say we support Chrissy
00:28:17.340so that we have, you know, the visual friendship through thick and thin.
00:28:23.300Austin Grab is joining me now. I feel like a big part of the story that's either been a
00:28:28.280misconception or people are just forgetting about is that Wood has fully transitioned into
00:28:32.960a woman and was in the woman's bathroom. Yeah, that's right. Well, in fact, she says she is a
00:28:37.540woman and she really wants to drive home the fact that she transitioned over five years ago.
00:28:42.480And that, you know, she says she is, she is a woman and she says she's a woman, period.
00:28:47.380And that's where it ends. Absolutely. And let's transition ourselves into the other side of the
00:28:50.540story. What are we hearing from her? Yeah. Interesting. He said it. Well,
00:28:54.840that's it. He said it. It looks here last night at the protest and I have tried to get in touch with
00:28:59.480her. I left a message yesterday at her workplace, but I have not had a phone call back.
00:29:03.940Certainly we would like to speak to her, but I haven't heard from her and I haven't heard any
00:29:07.560more public comments from her. It will be interesting to see if she comes out to that
00:29:11.500city council meeting next week. Certainly she's already had her voice heard there. Now Wood is
00:29:15.700going to have her voice heard there as well. It would be interesting to see if the two were there
00:29:19.460at the same time. Absolutely. You definitely want to hear from that 17 year old and how she's even
00:29:23.400responding to the protest. Austin, thank you very much. Let's dive deeper into that part of the story
00:29:28.360and how this incident got into the public limelight last week. That 17 year old girl that we were just
00:29:33.540talking about. Her name is Rebecca Phillips. She got up to speak at the Santee city council meeting.
00:29:37.840Pause it again. I don't know how much longer this goes on. So they're remarking on the fact that they
00:29:45.020can't get a hold of the 17 year old girl and both of these, both of these so-called journalists there.
00:29:51.560Oh, we tried to get a hold of her. We can't get a, she's not talking to us. I wonder why.
00:29:56.220I wonder why she's not talking to us. I don't know. 17 year old girl being smeared as a bigot by the
00:30:02.280media. Like you've already come out against her. You're right now coming out against her by affirming
00:30:09.140this pervert male as a woman. How do we know he's a woman? Well, because he says so.
00:30:15.780And they think that's really important to clarify. Just to clarify. Now, this person
00:30:21.300says, says she's a woman, period. Said it. That's it. It was said. So that's all.
00:30:29.980Well, fully transitioned where we are informed. He fully transitioned. This is a full transition.
00:30:39.080So what else are we supposed to say? There's a, there's this, that's it. That's the period. They
00:30:46.060put the end of the, they said, period. That's the end of the discussion. So after saying that,
00:30:50.360then they call up the 17 year old girl and say, Hey, by the way, we're with the media. We wanted to
00:30:53.960know why you're such a disgusting bigot. Hey, can you give us a call back? 17 year old girl. And let us
00:30:58.720know. We want to know why are you such a transphobic bigot? That's going to cause this poor trans woman to
00:31:04.240kill herself. We wanted to know more details about your bigotry. Please give us a call back.
00:31:11.260These people are beneath contempt, utter scum. And that's, you know, and I'm, I'm even angrier as
00:31:19.500always at the, at, at everyone else in this, that we've seen, you know, in this story, I'm angry at
00:31:25.980everyone else, even aside from the guy dressing up as a, as a woman. I mean, he's the number one
00:31:32.980culprit culprit, of course, he's a pervert predator and should be in prison for sexually harassing
00:31:41.060minor girls. He should simply be in prison for that for the rest of his life. This is not someone
00:31:46.380that we need in society. He's not doing anything to help society that we don't, we don't need him.
00:31:50.160And so we should just throw him in a cage and lock it and keep him there at a minimum.
00:31:56.880But then you look at everybody else. I mean, we heard from the woman. It's like an older woman.
00:32:05.080Imagine being like, you're an actual woman. Okay. You're, you're a real woman. And you see,
00:32:12.620you hear a story about a man disrobing and exposing himself to a 17 year old girl.
00:32:18.380And you take the man's side. All right, let's watch a little more of this and sparking the
00:32:25.980debate. Here's some of what she had to say. As I was showering after my workout, I saw a naked
00:32:31.740male in the women's locker room. I immediately went back into the shower, terrified and hid behind
00:32:37.580their flimsy excuse for a curtain until he was gone. I was made to feel as though I had done something
00:32:43.180wrong. When I talked to people at the YMCA, somehow the indecent exposure of a male to a female
00:32:49.180minor was an inconvenience to them. I mean, I, how deranged do you have to be? We just saw,
00:32:59.160they only gave us a, you know, a short snippet of the 17 year old girl, but you've got, you've got her
00:33:04.780on one hand. And even in that 10 seconds, they show of her address, the city council meeting,
00:33:11.260we can tell that she's a 17 year old girl, normal person who had to witness this hideous,
00:33:20.840disgusting excuse for a man disrobing in front of her. And she was quite traumatized by it and afraid
00:33:26.240as any 17 year old girl would be, as any woman would be, as any, any, any female would be in that
00:33:32.160situation. So you've got her on one hand, the other hand, you've got the Dennis Rodman lookalike.
00:33:41.080Again, how deranged do you have to be? Like in what state does your soul have to be in to see these
00:33:50.860two people and come to the conclusion that the dude is in the right, that you're on the dude's
00:33:57.240side. But what makes it really evil, you know, this is my point that what makes it really evil is that
00:34:04.100I don't believe that anyone actually does think that the guy is in the right. I just, I don't believe
00:34:11.980that the two news anchors or reporters that we saw there, I don't think that any of them are looking
00:34:18.960at this guy and thinking, well, yeah, that's a woman. All right. That's a woman. If I ever saw
00:34:23.360one, none of them think that, but they're going along with it for ideological, of course, political
00:34:30.040reasons. All right. Similar subject here is the report from the Daily Wire. United Nations Women's
00:34:36.300Rights Committee rejected a pro-life organization's request to screen the Daily Wire's What is a Woman
00:34:41.120after declaring the groundbreaking documentary did not align with the panel's values. The Committee on the
00:34:47.720Status of Women, referred to within the global body as NGO CSWNY and a convener for the United
00:34:56.900Nations Annual Meeting on Women's Rights, rejected the International Youth Coalition's request to hold
00:35:01.560a screening of the film starring Matt Walsh at an upcoming conference because it did not adhere to
00:35:05.960their new guidelines. So this is the UN at this committee associated with the UN. They're saying
00:35:12.340you can't screen what is a woman because it doesn't adhere to their guidelines. The letter
00:35:17.640turning down the proposal said, unfortunately, your request to host an event has been denied as your
00:35:21.520event does not align with NGO CSWNY's values and or mandate. The summary rejection stunned Austin
00:35:31.120Ruse, president of the Center for Family and Human Rights, the Youth Coalition's parent organization.
00:35:35.780He said, quote, how ironic is it that a conference on women does not want to consider the question,
00:35:41.360what is a woman? It's also unfortunate that this UN conference is not interested in diverse voices.
00:35:46.760Now, obviously, nobody is surprised that the UN is not interested in having my film screened. I don't
00:35:56.220think anyone's surprised by that. I'm not surprised to learn that it doesn't align with the UN's guidelines.
00:36:00.080I agree, in fact, that it does not align with their guidelines or their values. In fact, I would be
00:36:07.680embarrassed. I would be not just embarrassed. I'd be ashamed if they were actually allowed to screen
00:36:15.160it. If the UN said, oh, yeah, we have no problem with that one. Yeah, that adheres to our values.
00:36:22.560I think I would retire from the business. I think at that point I would have to. If I found out that I
00:36:27.140made a film that adheres to the UN's guidelines, I would have to retire in shame. So in a certain way,
00:36:33.000I'm quite relieved that they turned it down. But that doesn't change the irony here or how absurd
00:36:41.100it actually is that this is a keep in mind that the name of the committee or the conference, it's not
00:36:46.520simply a committee for women or whatever. It's a committee about the status of women. That's what
00:36:53.580they're interested in, the status of women. And so if we want to examine the status of women in the
00:36:59.480world, then probably the first question we need to answer is, what are they and do they exist to
00:37:05.140begin with? If you're trying to figure out anyone's status, the first thing you need to know is whether
00:37:11.280that person or that type of person exists. And that's something that is, at a minimum,
00:37:19.740a live question on the left. They're not quite sure. Not quite sure if women exist to begin with
00:37:24.940in any kind of meaningful sense. But that's not a question that they want to obviously examine at
00:37:30.460the UN. Another report from the Daily Wire, I think it's important. In one generation, the world has
00:37:35.100experienced seismic shifts in the way we communicate and relate to one another. But these changes are coming
00:37:39.640at a high cost, particularly to our children. Most teenagers, 97%, report being online every day,
00:37:44.880and nearly half say they're online almost constantly. But recent research from scientists
00:37:48.280at the University of North Carolina shows that all of this time on social media is linked to changes in
00:37:52.780the teen brain. By looking at brain scans of middle schoolers between the ages of 12 and 15,
00:37:58.180neuroscientists at UNC found that frequent social media users at age 12 showed heightened sensitivity to
00:38:05.240social rewards from peers over time. Teenagers who were less engaged with social media at age 12
00:38:10.560showed less interest in social rewards over time.
00:38:14.160Gene Twang, a psychology professor at San Diego State University and author of iGen,
00:38:19.020has also sounded the alarm on the link between social media use and anxiety and depression in
00:38:23.420teens. There's a substantial link to depression, and that link tends to be stronger among girls.
00:38:27.860The more time the teen, particularly a teen girl, spends using social media, the more likely it is
00:38:32.040that she will be depressed, according to Twang. Any new habit or learned behavior leaves its imprint
00:38:37.060on the brain. The fact that the brain is imprinted by social media use should not come as a surprise.
00:38:41.520But most parents who let their children create social media accounts are probably unaware of the extent
00:38:44.940to which these social media accounts are training their children to seek pure approval
00:38:47.940or what the long-term consequences may be.
00:38:51.200This is just the latest bit of scientific evidence that it is not good for children for them to sit
00:39:02.220around all day staring at their phones. Remember 50, and I think the number is probably low, but
00:39:07.880according to the latest data, latest surveys, 50% of teens and adolescents say that they're online
00:39:15.880constantly. And by constantly, and anyone who's ever been around a kid in this category knows that
00:39:22.040constantly really means constantly. Like they're never not on. They sleep and then they wake up and
00:39:27.400they're staring at their phone the entire day. No matter what else they're doing, they have the
00:39:31.060phone and they're looking at their phone. I don't think we need, we certainly have never needed to wait
00:39:39.120around for scientific evidence that this is not a healthy way to live. And I don't need, I don't need
00:39:46.560any scientific analysis or any study to tell me this is not a healthy way for kids to live.
00:39:51.700The only thing, the only thing a science will do is tell us in precisely what sort of ways it is
00:39:57.500unhealthy. So we know that it's extremely unhealthy and we can figure out a lot of the ways that it's not
00:40:02.200healthy. Driving the obesity epidemic is one thing. That's the least of it. But then science,
00:40:10.020I suppose, can come back around and get a little bit more specific. Give us some of the details.
00:40:14.280None of these details are surprising. This is not, this is not a, hey, it's, it's not even a human
00:40:21.880existence. The human beings were not meant to live this way. And whenever we can look at the way that
00:40:27.980we're living our lives right now, you know, this is this part of learning from history and learning
00:40:33.400from our ancestors. And I know people these days, they want to pretend that our ancestors and
00:40:37.120have nothing to teach us and nothing to tell, tell us. We want to sever ourselves entirely from our
00:40:43.040ancestors, not listen to the testimony of those who came before us, but that's a very foolish way to
00:40:49.720live. And if you were to listen to them, then, you know, you should look at the way you're living and
00:40:53.380you could ask yourself, like, what, what is it about modern life that would be entirely foreign
00:41:00.980to our ancestors? And just because it'd be entirely foreign to our ancestors, doesn't mean that it's
00:41:07.600necessarily wrong. There's a lot of modern medicine, at least the legitimate parts of it,
00:41:11.840that would have been foreign to our ancestors. Antibiotics would have been foreign to them.
00:41:16.220Doesn't mean that we shouldn't take them. But having a little device that you carry around all
00:41:25.900the time and having your entire life center around this device, that is one of those things that is
00:41:32.500unprecedented in history. There's no analog for it. Many of the things that we think are unprecedented
00:41:39.860in modern history, when you look at it, you see that, well, this is just a version of something that
00:41:45.020existed before. Nothing new under the sun, as it says, as we say. Actually, there are some things
00:41:49.800that are new under the sun. Smartphones and the internet are new under the sun. There is no analog
00:41:54.320for it. Nothing comparable to it, historically. This is an entirely new thing. It might be one of the
00:42:01.260only entirely new things. This is an entirely new thing that we have decided to completely structure
00:42:07.620our lives around. That in and of itself doesn't make it wrong, but it is a reason to examine it and
00:42:15.220say, hmm, no one's ever lived this way before. We are verging off a completely different path.
00:42:23.360Is this the right thing to do? I think in this case, it's obviously not. And clearly, when your kids
00:42:31.100grow up on this stuff and all they ever do is use the internet and their whole life is structured
00:42:35.480around it, as they found in the study, I mean, among other things, makes them a lot more susceptible
00:42:42.260to peer pressure, a lot more susceptible to influence, much more desperate for approval and
00:42:47.500affirmation. Kids already are inclined in that way. They need approval and affirmation. That's not
00:42:54.740that's not an unhealthy desire for a child. But for kids that are on social media, this is their entire
00:43:01.400life. You got to, I mean, you just, you have, I could keep saying it a million times over and I
00:43:09.740will continue to say it. You have to rescue your children from this. You just must, you can't, you
00:43:14.720cannot, you must force your, your children to have real childhoods and to live real human lives,
00:43:21.900you know. Um, and they're, they're not going to like it. If you've allowed them to use the phone
00:43:26.960up until now and you take that stuff away, and if you allow them to play video games six hours a day
00:43:31.460and you take that away, they're not going to like it at first. It's, it's, they're going to react like
00:43:35.540a heroin addict when you take the heroin needle away, but, but it's for their own good.
00:43:42.640Um, you just, you just have to for their own sake. All right, let's get to our comment section.
00:43:47.440Do you know their name? They're the sweet baby gang.
00:43:55.740Joshua Vann says, Matt Walsh literally just said we should assume the shooter was black
00:44:01.160because it was a crime against Asians. Wow. Let's not mention most mass shooters are white.
00:44:05.860LOL. Wow. I'm glad you're impressed. Uh, no, I said that if we were going to assume the rate,
00:44:13.920if we are going to assume the race of the Monterey park shooter, as many in the media did,
00:44:18.220then statistically the most probable assumption would be that he's black. Turns out that he's not
00:44:22.560black or white. He's Asian. Um, as for most mass shooters being white again, uh, unfortunately you're
00:44:32.020wrong. A mass shooting is defined as a shooting where multiple people are hurt or killed. That's
00:44:37.820what a mass shooting is. Now you're going based on the definition of mass shooting.
00:44:42.040Your definition of mass shooting is basically the types of shootings the media pays attention to.
00:44:46.980And if that's your definition, then yes, the majority of those are carried out by white people.
00:44:52.340I mean, almost a hundred percent of them, like 95% are carried out by white people. The ones that the
00:44:56.920media pays attention to. That's not the actual definition of mass shooting. Mass shooting is,
00:45:00.540is just multiple people being hurt or killed. And when you define mass shooting that way,
00:45:05.460which is how law enforcement agencies define it, then the majority of those are carried out by black men,
00:45:10.380uh, by a white, wide margin, by the way, not by white people. That's again, a statistical reality.
00:45:18.920Uh, recrat says, Matt, I cannot put up with this grifting anymore. I'm sick of having to pay for daily
00:45:24.200wire plus. I'm sick of the ads. I will settle for no less than you showing up to my front door and
00:45:28.900telling me what you have to say personally and paying me for my time. That is, that is one potential
00:45:37.300business strategy. I'll, I'll run that up the flagpole and see what they think. Um, Julie says, Matt,
00:45:43.300I think you're eventually going to surpass Rush Limbaugh in popularity. I look forward to it. Uh,
00:45:47.420no, I, I, I won't. And no, here's the thing that nobody ever will. Um, no one will ever be, there's not
00:45:54.220going to be a, uh, you know, after Rush Limbaugh died, there was, of course, this conversation about
00:45:59.140who's the new Rush Limbaugh, who's going to take over, who's going to take the banner and be the,
00:46:04.540and, um, there's not ever going to be, Rush Limbaugh, first of all, is a singular talent,
00:46:10.520um, at a particular time in history, revolutionized his industry of talk radio.
00:46:16.580And, uh, it's a different world now. Um, and there's not ever going to be another one. That's,
00:46:22.840that's it. Um, US Marine says, Matt is the only person I know that hates cake as passionately as
00:46:32.880the no pineapple on pizza crowd. It's impressive, honestly. Well, that's not quite fair. I, I think
00:46:40.440I, I don't hate cakes. This is the misconception. Okay. I've already said I'll eat cake. Obviously,
00:46:47.080if someone offers me cake, I'm going to eat it because the only other option is to say, no,
00:46:51.740I don't want any cake, which who would ever say that. So I'll eat it. Um, speaking of obesity,
00:46:58.180I'll eat whatever junk food you put in front of my face, but it's not, it's overrated. It's vastly
00:47:05.140overrated. Why? And, and, and it doesn't deserve the pride of place that it gets is my point.
00:47:13.340Um, orange banana says, Matt, now that we've settled the pie versus cake dispute,
00:47:19.920how about this yogurt or pudding? How is that a dispute? Like, would anyone choose a yogurt over
00:47:26.900pudding? You could choose yogurt or pudding. Is anyone going with yogurt? It's arguable whether
00:47:33.100you should eat yogurt, even if it's the only option. Yogurt is kind of gross. It tastes a little
00:47:37.280bit like worms, especially Greek yogurt. Um, but there's, there's no contest there at all.
00:47:43.120Glock tech says, it's so nice to hear Matt pronounce latinx as latinx instead of Latin X.
00:47:50.280The word itself is an abomination against Spanish grammar and the latter pronunciation just further
00:47:55.360attacks on the Spanish language because X isn't pronounced as X in Spanish. The Democrats in their
00:48:01.580woke culture purport to be the tolerant ones, but the non-Hispanic who compromised so many of their ranks
00:48:06.700presumed to, uh, who comprise so many of the ranks presumed to tell actual Hispanics how to speak
00:48:11.580their own language. The lack of insight is egregious. Yeah. I don't even like, it's like even
00:48:17.540conservatives when they're making fun of the latinx thing will, will themselves pronounce it Latin X,
00:48:25.840but you're already giving the left too much ground when you do that.
00:48:30.820I won't use their false pronunciation even when making fun of it, because that's not like,
00:48:37.380latinx. How would you pronounce, if you want the word Latin X, then I guess you'd have to spell it
00:48:43.100L-A-T-I-N-E-X. Like maybe then you could justify Latin X, but L-A-T-I-N-X is Latinx. That's how you
00:48:52.420pronounce that. And finally, Harry Logman says, brilliant episode. I think the girl in the second
00:48:59.800video in the cancellation had seen other guys staring in gym videos and was expecting the same
00:49:04.120thing to happen. She had been thinking about this hypothetical situation and was angry already
00:49:08.280before a guy used his eyeballs to look vaguely in her direction, a terrible crime for him to commit.
00:49:14.040I'm lucky enough to see the best side of women every day of my life, but this is one of life's
00:49:17.840irritations. A certain type of woman spending hours trying to look as attractive as possible and then
00:49:22.420blaming men for looking at them. Some women do this all the time. They want men to behave in one
00:49:27.980specific way only, and anything else is harassment. It's irrational, yet some people take this nonsense
00:49:33.640seriously. Yeah, I think that might partly explain. Actually, I don't think that's really the
00:49:37.160explanation. I don't think that either of the women in these videos were actually upset. I think
00:49:42.780this is a trap. It's a whole part of the reason why they're recording themselves at the gym. And I know
00:49:48.120women aren't the only, I see this sometimes, I see this sometimes myself at the gym, not just women,
00:49:52.580but men recording themselves too. I don't get it. I don't know why you need to do that. And if you
00:49:57.780really do feel the need to do that, you feel like you want to record yourself working out, then you could
00:50:03.220say it's your house for that. That's one thing about recording yourself in a public place.
00:50:11.040It's annoying to everyone and it's strange, but also there are other people who are now in the
00:50:16.080recording who probably don't want to be, especially at a gym. Most normal people, the last thing they
00:50:21.700want in the world, unless you're getting paid as a fitness instructor, the last thing you want in the
00:50:26.580world is to be on video when you're working out. So I think this was just a trap that they said. I don't
00:50:33.080think she was actually authentically angry at all. But either way, they were the bad guys and deserve
00:50:39.620to be canceled. Jeremy's Razors is offering a great deal that ends soon. 40% off on all razors. Why the
00:50:45.760discount? Well, I'm glad you asked. A year ago, when Joe Biden tried to force a vaccine mandate upon
00:50:51.080private employers and some 85 million Americans, the Daily Wire told him where to stick it. We sued
00:50:56.920the federal government and won. After a 6-3 ruling in our favor from the Supreme Court, the mandate was
00:51:02.180dead and together we kicked the government's ass. So on the first anniversary of this tremendous
00:51:06.340victory for all Americans, the Daily Wire CEO and God King Jeremy Boring has issued a special decree
00:51:11.160on the razors that bear his name right now and only for a limited time. All Jeremy's razors are 40%
00:51:17.080off. That's right, 40%. That means you can get a kit with a Precision 5 razor and flip-back trimmer,
00:51:22.200shave cream, post-shave balm, extra blades, and a handy travel case for just $35.99. That's a savings
00:51:28.500of just $24. The Biden administration and its totalitarian cronies were cut down and now we
00:51:35.920can rejoice by drinking their tears, enjoying our freedom, and looking damn good while doing it.
00:51:41.440Get 40% off Jeremy's Razors before the deal ends by going to jeremysrazors.com. Now let's get to
00:51:46.620our daily cancellation. Today we cancel Sha'Carri Richardson. You may vaguely remember the name
00:51:56.080as someone who was complaining a while ago about being persecuted for some reason or another and
00:52:01.100supposedly was all racist or somehow or something. All these controversies bleed together in the mind
00:52:06.280and it's hard to keep them straight. So to clarify, Richardson is the female track star who was
00:52:11.260disqualified from the Olympics a couple of years ago because she tested positive for marijuana. And
00:52:15.780many people, including Richardson herself, complained that the rule against marijuana use is absurd and
00:52:20.200pointless as marijuana is not likely to give you an advantage in competitive sports. This is probably
00:52:25.340true, I guess, but me being the victim blamer that I am, I always more so wondered why she would use
00:52:31.820marijuana when she's in the middle of qualifying for the Olympics, given the fact that it's a banned
00:52:36.780substance. It may not be necessary to ban it at the Olympics, but it's even less necessary for
00:52:42.120Olympians to use it. And if I was hoping to compete in the Olympics and the Olympics had a rule outlawing
00:52:48.220the consumption of anything, like if they had a rule outlawing the consumption of Cheez-Its before
00:52:51.980competing and they had a test to determine who had used Cheez-Its, I'd be severely disappointed.
00:52:57.100I'd be confused. I wouldn't agree with the rule, but I still just wouldn't eat the Cheez-Its as difficult
00:53:02.720as it would be to abstain because it would be more important to me that I get to follow my dream
00:53:06.940and compete. But that's just me. So she chose to sacrifice the Olympics so that she could smoke
00:53:12.240weed. That makes her the moron. And that's really the story there. It should have been.
00:53:16.860But Richardson became famous for not racing at the Olympics, a famous victim of Olympic rules that
00:53:22.420apply to everyone, but somehow were personally oppressive to her specifically. And given that
00:53:26.740Richardson's primary claim to fame is her victimhood, it perhaps is no surprise that she is, or at least
00:53:30.980became a totally insufferable brat. Which leads us to the latest update in the Richardson victimhood
00:53:37.560saga, where now she finds herself kicked off of an American Airlines flight after refusing to stop
00:53:42.880using her phone before takeoff. She recorded two videos documenting this confrontation with the
00:53:47.520flight attendants and other people on her flight, apparently convinced that she comes off as the
00:53:51.700good guy in the exchange. But you can judge for yourself. Here's the video.
00:53:55.240Place it all the way under the seat, in front of you. Lying. Larger carry-on luggage.
00:54:01.820Flying, not working today. Vacation time.
00:54:05.520Such as cell phones, tablets, and smart watches. Please switch them.
00:54:09.680I'm recording me, but you jumped in my video, so I caught you because you jumped in my video.
00:54:14.280You're harassing me at this point, so I think you should stop. I think you should stop.
00:54:18.180You see him, right? Y'all see him, right? Y'all see him, right? Okay. Okay, but I'm sorry. It's not me. Talk to him. No, no, no, don't talk to me like that. Do not talk to me like that. Do not talk to me like that. Tell him to stop. If you do not know what's going on, do not yell at me. You can stop recording. No, I'm not going to stop recording because I was making a video to myself. I'm going to not stop recording. And this video will show what you're doing. So I appreciate it. Who the
00:54:48.180Are you talking to, ma'am? We don't need other people to get involved. Thank you. Let's go. No.
00:54:56.260Again, again with the taking the video in public thing. Why are you taking a video to begin with on your flight? No one cares that you're on a flight. You're taking a flight. That's not interesting. Why do you think that needs to be documented? Not everything needs to be documented. Okay, we don't need documentation, especially not all the documentation anyone does anymore is of their face.
00:55:18.180It's a selfie or a selfie video. Here's my face on a plane. Here's my face doing this. Here's my face walking down the street. Nobody cares. It's not interesting.
00:55:25.820And I know that I sound like a hypocrite because I'm in front of a camera every single day. But that's also my job. And I can tell you, even in my job, like it, trust me, you see too much of me as it is. It could be a lot worse. I mean, all the time I've got social media, the social media team here telling me, oh, you should do this video doing this or that. We need a selfie video of you doing this. I'm not doing that. No one needs to see that. It's not interesting. Like, give me a reason why I should be on camera. Some reason and I'll do it.
00:55:58.820Okay? Now, in the second video, which I won't force you to watch, she argues with another passenger who rightly blames her for holding up the plane and making him miss his connection. She chides him for not being chivalrous and not standing up to defend her against the intimidating flight attendants. And he responds to her by saying, and I quote, I don't give a shit, which is both an eloquent argument and the morally correct one in this situation.
00:56:24.120Eventually, Richardson is escorted off the plane while the other passengers applaud. But the fact that nearly everyone on the plane was against her and that she had inconvenienced over 100 people for no reason at all was not enough to convince her that she was herself the villain of this story.
00:56:39.120Instead, she posted both videos to Instagram while threatening legal action against the airline for committing the crime of, I guess, expecting her to follow the rules that everyone else has to follow.
00:56:49.640So, this is a theme for Richardson, right? She really has trouble with requirements that apply to everyone. You don't have to like the requirements, okay? But they apply to everyone and no one else has a problem. Everyone else manages to follow them but you.
00:57:05.480Why is it a problem for you? Everyone else manages to not smoke weed before they had to go race in the Olympics. You had an issue with it. Everyone else manages to like not be taking a selfie video right before takeoff. For some reason, you can't handle that.
00:57:19.700Indeed, she is personally injured by these requirements. The requirements are an attack against her. Not against everyone else who's just as subject to them, but against her because she is her. She is Sha'Carri Richardson and she is the protagonist in the story of the human species.
00:57:36.980Now, fortunately, I don't have to go to great lengths, actually, in this cancellation to explain why Richardson is in the wrong because it would seem that most people are on the same page on this one.
00:57:47.600Somewhat shockingly, this is the part that surprised me. Richardson has not garnered much public support even after playing both the race and gender card after the fact.
00:57:57.140An Instagram post that diligently avoids anything resembling punctuation or proper sentence structure, Richardson wrote, in part,
00:58:04.860tell me if I'll be wrong to pursue legal actions against the airline, American airline. Not only did the man threaten me, but also an innocent bystander who simply just wanted a picture with me.
00:58:13.640In the beginning of the video, you can hear a Caucasian male state that he doesn't give a F as a man that male flight attendant is intimidating a woman.
00:58:20.860Also, the captain not doing anything to help the situation, and this flight attendant has the applause when I exited the plane when I'm pretty serious.
00:58:28.400The disrespect I receive would not have happened if I was a one of them.
00:58:38.320One of them as in a white male, I guess is what she meant to say.
00:58:41.780Because, of course, everyone on the plane would have been perfectly happy to miss their connecting flights if only the disturbance had been caused by a white male.
00:58:49.380I mean, I'll never forget the time, this actually happened a couple times, when I threw a random temper tantrum in first class, delayed the plane by 45 minutes, caused 32 passengers to miss their connections.
00:59:00.080And everyone in the plane, they were so proud of me, they shook my hands one by one to thank me for it, while the flight attendant showered me with free flight vouchers and extra bags of complimentary peanuts.
00:59:12.080That is a thing that definitely happened in real life and not just in the fevered, marijuana-soaked mind of Sha'Carri Richardson.
00:59:19.380Anyway, in this case, her victim routine seems to not be resonating as much as she had hoped with the public.
00:59:25.300It could be that the public has become suddenly intelligent and discerning, which seems to be, frankly, extremely unlikely.
00:59:31.640Or it could just be that people are simply sick and tired of loud-mouthed crybabies with main character syndrome
00:59:38.360who always seem to find problems and drama in the sorts of situations where everyone else manages to get along just fine.
00:59:45.860It's perhaps interesting to note that even as the public becomes increasingly and unreasonably tolerant of self-victimizing drama queens
00:59:54.960who look for every opportunity to be oppressed, they still don't want to deal with it on an airplane.
01:00:03.080People these days will put up with your shenanigans in almost any situation that is until your shenanigans might cause them to miss a connection in Chicago.
01:00:11.260That seems to be where the line is drawn.
01:00:15.300And it's good that the line is drawn somewhere.
01:00:18.260And that is why I must say, indeed, I think we all say, that Sha'Carri Richardson is today canceled.
01:00:25.100And that'll do it for this portion of the show as we move over to the members block.
