The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 1189 - Audiences Tricked Into Watching The Adventures Of Man-Hating Feminist Barbie

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Walsh Show, the new Barbie movie is a smash hit at the box office.

00:00:04.000 It's also the most aggressively anti-man feminist propaganda fest ever put to film.

00:00:08.620 But of course, the movie studio was smart enough to hide that fact in its marketing materials.

00:00:12.340 We'll talk about that.

00:00:13.300 Also, in an interesting twist, the state superintendent in California was thrown out of a school board meeting

00:00:17.620 while trying to protest against a policy that would require schools to inform parents

00:00:21.760 if their children identify as the opposite sex.

00:00:24.680 The New York Times warns that you should wear a mask if you go outside,

00:00:27.340 but not because of COVID, rather because of the heat.

00:00:29.480 And Kamala Harris goes on a speaking tour denouncing Florida schools for teaching kids that slavery is good.

00:00:35.400 The only problem is that this is a total fabrication, obviously.

00:00:38.480 All of that and more today on the Matt Walsh Show.

00:00:48.220 You know a company is looking out for you when they actually upgrade your service and don't charge you for it.

00:00:52.640 This is great news for new and current Pure Talk customers.

00:01:38.440 Wireless for Americans by Americans.

00:01:40.380 Last week, we discussed the impending doom of Hollywood.

00:01:44.300 As the media was frantically warning us, the entire entertainment industry was on the verge of collapse thanks to a writer's strike, an actor's strike, and a series of supposed blockbusters that turned out to be flops.

00:01:53.760 And this was, in some ways, an ironic combination of factors given that the quality and performance of these movies would seem to indicate that the writers and actors had already been on strike for many decades.

00:02:03.980 The average viewer will come out of the latest Hollywood dud, hear that the writers had been on strike, or just went on strike, and respond, wait, the movie had writers?

00:02:12.160 It already seems like these films are being generated by AI, and now they really will be, and I don't think we'll be able to tell much of a difference when that happens.

00:02:19.400 So it has been a gloomy time in Hollywood all around, but this weekend has given them a glimmer of hope.

00:02:24.600 A false hope, I think, and a hope that will teach them all the wrong lessons, but hope all the same.

00:02:29.060 The Hollywood Reporter declares a box office stunner, a historic weekend for movies.

00:02:34.240 They report, quote,

00:02:35.600 The summer box office just went nuclear.

00:02:37.520 Filmmaker Greta Gerwig's female-fueled Barbie opened to a historic $155 million domestically,

00:02:43.980 a threshold usually reserved for male-driven superhero fare, or marquee IP, such as the final Harry Potter movie.

00:02:50.580 It came in well ahead of an expected $90 million to $110 million, and helped fuel one of the biggest weekends in history.

00:02:57.040 Barbie, which brings to life Mattel's iconic fashion doll, is also strutting to big numbers overseas.

00:03:03.100 The pick launched to an impressive $182 million from 70 markets for a global bow of $337 million against a $145 million production budget.

00:03:12.560 In North America, Barbie scored the biggest domestic start ever for a movie directed by a woman, solo or otherwise.

00:03:18.420 After gushing for several more paragraphs about Barbie, the article does mention that Christopher Nolan's film Oppenheimer also opened this weekend to an enormous haul, raking in $80 million.

00:03:28.600 This makes it Nolan's biggest opening weekend for any of his non-Batman films, especially impressive, far more impressive than Barbie's performance, as we'll see,

00:03:36.300 because his movie is an original three-hour R-rated historical drama.

00:03:40.520 It is very difficult to make that kind of film into a smash hit.

00:03:44.080 People don't generally flock to theaters to watch incredibly long character studies about historical figures.

00:03:50.200 That is unprecedented, or nearly so.

00:03:53.520 There is, however, plenty of precedent for moviegoers crowding theaters to watch movies based on familiar brands.

00:03:59.880 Okay, it's not really historic.

00:04:01.160 Audiences are increasingly becoming bored with franchise films and brand films, as Indiana Jones and The Flash and Little Mermaid and many others have discovered.

00:04:10.060 But if there is a brand with a large and dedicated fan base that hasn't had its own film in a long time,

00:04:16.020 then it'll probably do pretty well in its opening weekend.

00:04:19.600 And that's the story with Barbie.

00:04:21.100 The movie is a smash hit because Barbie, as a brand, is a smash hit.

00:04:25.900 The quality of the film doesn't make a difference.

00:04:28.280 The directing, the acting, the writing, none of that factors into the equation.

00:04:33.560 Okay, it could have just been a movie where you're literally staring at a Barbie doll sitting in the corner.

00:04:38.880 And because it's called Barbie, it would have made $150 million.

00:04:42.080 Mothers and daughters did not file into the theaters over the weekend because they really wanted to see what Greta Gerwig cooked up.

00:04:48.060 Nor did they come because they were big Margot Robbie fans.

00:04:50.400 They came because it's Barbie.

00:04:52.280 It's a brand they like.

00:04:53.240 And American consumers are conditioned to salivate whenever their favorite brand rings the bell.

00:04:59.300 This weekend was not really a vindication of Hollywood or the filmmakers behind Barbie's,

00:05:03.600 but rather, if anything, a vindication of Pavlov and his dogs.

00:05:07.240 Barbie's box office performance is a result of conditioning and not much else.

00:05:11.040 Now, if anyone deserves the credit, though, for the biggest box office debut for any female director in history,

00:05:17.500 it is not the female director, but the marketing department.

00:05:21.580 Because they're the ones who knew enough to lie about the true content and message of the film.

00:05:27.140 Because as we've now discovered, though it shouldn't really have come as a surprise to anyone,

00:05:31.120 the Barbie movie is a preachy feminist screed about taking down the patriarchy.

00:05:35.240 It is a gender studies lecture in Barbie packaging.

00:05:39.860 And I know this not because I watched the film.

00:05:42.540 I'd rather jump feet first into a wood chipper than sit through that film.

00:05:46.540 I don't need to watch Barbie to know that it's bad.

00:05:49.560 For the same reason that I don't need to pull a rotten onion out of the garbage and eat it

00:05:52.880 in order to know that I won't like the taste.

00:05:55.080 I've never thrown myself into a volcano,

00:05:57.560 but I feel that I can safely say that the experience would be unpleasant and probably a little hot.

00:06:02.960 So some books can be judged by their covers, absolutely.

00:06:06.500 Or at least by their back covers where you find the description.

00:06:09.560 And we now have descriptions of the Barbie movie which make the themes clear.

00:06:14.040 Something that the marketing never did, and intentionally so.

00:06:18.260 Fox reports, quote,

00:06:19.500 Hollywood movie critics are widely praising Barbie as the most unwavering feminist summer blockbuster ever to exist.

00:06:26.440 Giving the new film particular adoration for its messaging around the patriarchy and gender roles.

00:06:30.920 The film, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, boasts a strong 89% critic score at Rotten Tomatoes,

00:06:37.100 with many reviews surprised by director Greta Gerwig's willingness to engage in extensive social commentary.

00:06:42.980 So surprising.

00:06:44.680 A Hollywood film director is engaging in political commentary?

00:06:48.260 No one's ever heard of such a thing.

00:06:51.120 Quote,

00:06:51.380 Once an equal parts fascinating and controversial Mattel toy, both loved and hated,

00:06:55.920 a tiny-waisted, vacuously smiling, slender doll designed like a straight male fantasy,

00:07:01.000 is now the complicated feminist symbol of empowerment in Gerwig's hands.

00:07:05.200 The rap wrote,

00:07:06.100 Quote,

00:07:06.780 But we aren't talking about an empty you-go-girl kind of empowerment here.

00:07:11.560 That would be too simple-minded for Gerwig,

00:07:13.560 whose articulate and accessible feminism has always been fiercely multifaceted and complex.

00:07:18.520 Barbie is both a master's thesis on feminism and an Austin Powers-esque romp, the Globe and Mail noted.

00:07:26.580 The rap also stated that the movie delivers a fierce feminist statement dressed in pink,

00:07:30.920 while the Globe and Mail declared that the film,

00:07:32.520 Quote,

00:07:33.160 Most,

00:07:33.660 is most captivating and unwaveringly feminist summer blockbuster ever to exist.

00:07:37.840 Meanwhile, IndieWire praised the film's outside-the-box and funny feminist fantasia,

00:07:42.200 and singled out Gosling's performance of newfound male rage and patriarchal power as a particular highlight.

00:07:50.260 Funny, you know, they didn't tout this thing as a master thesis on feminism in the trailer.

00:07:55.440 I can guarantee you they didn't put that, they're not going to put that on the poster, okay?

00:07:59.420 A master thesis on feminism!

00:08:01.680 Come on, bring your kids!

00:08:02.700 They didn't title the movie The Adventures of Feminist Barbie.

00:08:07.600 No mentions of patriarchy or male rage either in any of the marketing.

00:08:11.140 It is, again, not in the least bit surprising that these themes dominate the film.

00:08:15.400 Not surprising to us, anyway, as people who pay attention and are aware of what's happening in the world and in our culture.

00:08:20.520 But the average Barbie viewer is, on the other hand, oftentimes not so aware.

00:08:25.760 And that's why the sleight-of-hand trick worked.

00:08:28.700 Dangle a funny and fun and nostalgic and family-friendly Barbie film in front of the audience,

00:08:33.680 and then when you have them in the seat, whack them over the head with the feminist stick.

00:08:38.320 Sell them the Barbie doll and let them open the package and find Gloria Steinem inside.

00:08:44.300 Now, we know about the aggressive, male-hating feminist bent of this film,

00:08:47.920 thanks in part to some brave souls like Ben Shapiro who actually sat and endured it so they could report on its content.

00:08:53.700 This is a form, I have to say, of journalistic courage far more impressive than reporters who cover war zones,

00:08:59.840 especially the reporters in Ukraine right now.

00:09:01.600 But we also know about the movie's real message from the generally positive reviews of liberal movie critics.

00:09:07.500 The review in Variety gets into some of the details that the film's marketing material smartly glossed over.

00:09:11.820 Quote,

00:09:12.520 At the same time, Barbie is experiencing her rude awakening.

00:09:15.680 Ken is busy filling his empty head with all the possibilities that patriarchy entails.

00:09:20.600 In Barbie Land, Ken's job is a deliberately ill-defined afterthought, basically just beach,

00:09:27.060 whereas in the real world, dudes rule, an idea he takes back to Barbie Land with pointingly absurd results,

00:09:32.360 brainwashing all the women into behaving like obedient housewives.

00:09:36.680 This is apparently the major underlying theme.

00:09:39.420 In the movie, men in Barbie Land are useless and stupid,

00:09:44.060 but then men in the real world are useless and stupid, but also violent, predatory, and in control of everything.

00:09:49.940 Ken witnesses this dynamic and tries to export the patriarchy back to Barbie Land.

00:09:56.020 And they actually call it the patriarchy in the film.

00:09:58.640 That phrase is used many times.

00:10:01.440 I should mention that the Variety review is not entirely positive.

00:10:05.160 Okay, to their credit, they do have some criticisms of the film,

00:10:09.400 including, you know, it takes issue with the movie,

00:10:11.620 and specifically with the way that men are portrayed.

00:10:13.680 But the issue, according to film critic Peter DeBugg,

00:10:17.800 is that all of this time spent making men look terrible might risk taking the spotlight off of women.

00:10:24.960 So there's nothing wrong with sending the message that all men are dumb pigs,

00:10:28.300 but you should give them less screen time in the process, Peter says.

00:10:31.920 Quote,

00:10:32.160 It's upsetting in a useful way to see Barbie confronted with the overnight impact of rampant patriarchy,

00:10:38.940 a concept that has rarely looked more off-putting than the frat boy fantasy caricatured here.

00:10:44.840 Think of it as the misogynistic alternative marketed by old-school beer commercials,

00:10:49.360 the polar opposite of Mattel's mid-80s,

00:10:51.800 we girls can do anything, right, Barbie? campaign.

00:10:54.720 While the Barbies plot to take back the government,

00:10:56.700 Gerwig gives all the Ken dolls an over-the-top musical number,

00:10:59.360 I'm Just Ken, which is so amusingly self-involved,

00:11:02.420 it risks subverting the very point the movie's trying to make.

00:11:05.520 If Barbie is all about centering and celebrating women,

00:11:08.380 why let Ken steal the show?

00:11:11.000 So this is the modern media for you.

00:11:12.620 The only problem with demonizing men is that it requires you to talk about men too much.

00:11:18.060 And that's the Barbie movie for you, too.

00:11:20.340 Thousands of moms took their daughters to see this thing over the weekend.

00:11:23.260 And, you know, it is certainly a wonderful movie to show your daughter

00:11:29.460 if you want your daughter to be a vapid, man-hating harpy.

00:11:33.760 If that's your great dream for your daughter,

00:11:36.140 then by all means, show them Greta Gerwig's Barbie.

00:11:40.000 But this is not actually what most mothers want for their daughters.

00:11:44.280 So for comparison's sake,

00:11:46.520 contrast this with the general public reaction

00:11:49.340 when a movie wears its feminist credentials on its sleeve.

00:11:53.320 Take the upcoming Snow White remake, for example.

00:11:55.220 We've already seen how they traded in Snow White for Snow Brown,

00:11:58.200 casting a Hispanic woman in the title role.

00:12:00.280 And for whatever reason,

00:12:00.960 they decided that the most inclusive approach

00:12:02.720 is to take casting opportunities away from actors with dwarfism

00:12:05.660 by turning the seven dwarves into regular-sized carnies.

00:12:09.060 But they're also changing the whole arc and theme of the story

00:12:12.200 to make it more feminist,

00:12:13.760 as this interview with the stars revealed, watch.

00:12:16.360 You said you were bringing a modern edge to it on stage.

00:12:20.780 What do you mean by that?

00:12:21.640 I just mean that it's no longer 1937,

00:12:24.440 and we absolutely wrote a Snow White.

00:12:27.000 She's not going to be saved by the prince.

00:12:28.880 She's not going to be saved by the prince,

00:12:30.240 and she's not going to be dreaming about true love.

00:12:32.640 She's dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be,

00:12:35.620 and the leader that her late father told her that she could be

00:12:38.160 if she was fearless, fair, brave, and true.

00:12:40.360 And so it's just a really incredible story

00:12:42.260 for, I think, young people everywhere to see themselves in.

00:12:44.520 Hmm.

00:12:48.540 It's not 1937 anymore, that's true.

00:12:50.660 More is the pity.

00:12:51.980 Now, we're not going to focus on the point that

00:12:54.020 the taller woman there, Gal Gadot,

00:12:56.520 is playing the evil queen,

00:12:58.660 and the shorter one is playing Snow White.

00:13:00.800 Now, remember that in the story,

00:13:02.740 the queen is supposed to be jealous of Snow White's beauty.

00:13:06.700 You know, mirror, mirror on the wall,

00:13:07.620 who's the fairest one of all?

00:13:08.840 And the mirror is supposed to tell her that it's Snow White.

00:13:11.440 So we're supposed to buy that, okay?

00:13:13.680 We're supposed to buy that Gal Gadot is asked,

00:13:16.520 who's the fairest one of all?

00:13:17.420 And it's not her, it's Rachel Zegler.

00:13:21.420 This is a real problem.

00:13:22.540 Kind of hard to pull off in this case,

00:13:23.880 as the evil queen is significantly more attractive than Snow White.

00:13:26.660 But, you know, putting that aside,

00:13:28.280 the point is that the clip you just heard

00:13:30.800 has been roundly mocked by nearly everyone.

00:13:34.660 The movie is destined to be a worse flop

00:13:36.360 than the Woke Little Mermaid bastardization was.

00:13:39.000 I mean, it's guaranteed to be a flop.

00:13:41.700 Because nobody wants to see a fairy tale

00:13:43.860 where the damsel in distress no longer needs saving,

00:13:47.300 and the central romance has been replaced

00:13:49.120 with a dreary sermon about self-empowerment.

00:13:52.180 Nobody wants to see Snow White

00:13:54.600 become a corporate middle manager

00:13:57.000 and achieve true happiness

00:13:58.120 by moving into a two-bedroom condo with her cat.

00:14:02.080 They want to see her get saved by the prince

00:14:04.080 and fall in love.

00:14:04.840 That's what people want to see.

00:14:05.640 When you advertise ahead of time

00:14:08.080 that your film is going to go the former route

00:14:10.380 rather than the latter,

00:14:11.880 going the feminist route

00:14:13.000 rather than the classic route,

00:14:14.660 nobody will see it.

00:14:16.600 So feminism has to trick you.

00:14:18.660 It has to smuggle itself in.

00:14:20.760 It can't walk in the front door

00:14:22.220 announcing its arrival

00:14:23.160 because people will scream

00:14:25.680 and run out the back door,

00:14:27.240 away from it.

00:14:29.080 That's because,

00:14:30.040 despite what Snow Brown claims,

00:14:31.420 nearly all women innately desire

00:14:34.640 a man to protect them

00:14:36.060 and provide for them.

00:14:37.620 That's what almost all women want.

00:14:40.420 Women want to be swept off their feet

00:14:42.400 by Prince Charming.

00:14:43.480 That's why these stories

00:14:44.580 have lived on for centuries

00:14:45.940 and resonated with each new generation.

00:14:49.300 The feminist fairy tale

00:14:50.800 resonates with no one.

00:14:53.500 It's a vision of what feminism

00:14:54.820 wants women to do

00:14:56.280 and what it wants women to think

00:14:58.480 and what it wants women to want.

00:15:01.120 But it will always ring false

00:15:02.820 because it is false.

00:15:04.860 Now, that's not to say

00:15:07.000 that feminism hasn't won

00:15:08.340 many disciples in the modern world.

00:15:10.020 Obviously, it has.

00:15:11.680 It has proven to be

00:15:12.560 a devastating and lethal force

00:15:14.220 far deadlier than the bomb

00:15:15.820 at the center of the other

00:15:16.800 blockbuster this weekend.

00:15:19.240 Feminism has killed

00:15:20.100 60 million babies

00:15:21.220 and that's just the beginning

00:15:22.240 of the destruction

00:15:22.980 that it has wrought on the world.

00:15:24.620 But it wins adherence

00:15:26.240 through brainwashing,

00:15:27.240 intense and constant indoctrination,

00:15:29.180 especially in public schools,

00:15:30.540 and by playing on a woman's

00:15:31.840 resentment and hatred

00:15:32.900 and self-pity

00:15:33.620 and desire to blame others

00:15:35.260 for her problems.

00:15:37.840 You know, this can work

00:15:38.820 in the culture, unfortunately.

00:15:40.140 It doesn't really work

00:15:41.080 as a fairy tale

00:15:41.960 because fairy tales

00:15:43.200 are aspirational

00:15:44.120 and fanciful

00:15:45.000 and whimsical.

00:15:47.100 Feminism, on the other hand,

00:15:48.160 is base and vulgar

00:15:49.440 and hateful.

00:15:51.540 And it also doesn't work

00:15:52.740 in marketing materials

00:15:53.700 for a film

00:15:54.340 based on a beloved

00:15:55.060 children's toy.

00:15:55.880 That's why they hid it away,

00:15:58.240 tucked it under

00:15:58.780 all the pink and plastic,

00:16:00.180 and then came out

00:16:01.080 with the man-hating sledgehammer

00:16:02.540 when the audience

00:16:03.140 was already sitting

00:16:03.880 in the seats.

00:16:05.860 So, the only question

00:16:06.980 is whether those mothers

00:16:08.740 who took their daughters

00:16:09.660 then, you know,

00:16:10.700 to see this film,

00:16:12.400 did they then spend

00:16:13.480 the whole ride home

00:16:14.300 explaining why all that stuff

00:16:15.760 in the movie was wrong?

00:16:17.360 Better yet,

00:16:17.900 as soon as they saw

00:16:18.640 what was really happening,

00:16:19.500 did they grab their daughter

00:16:20.820 by the hand

00:16:21.360 and leave the theater

00:16:22.260 before the movie ended?

00:16:23.140 Or were they too obtuse

00:16:26.140 to notice the toxic

00:16:27.540 feminist message

00:16:28.320 even when it was delivered

00:16:29.340 with a sledgehammer?

00:16:31.120 Or were many of these mothers

00:16:32.500 already man-hating

00:16:33.620 feminists themselves

00:16:34.500 and so they didn't see

00:16:35.340 any problem with it?

00:16:37.100 I suspect a mix

00:16:38.240 of all these options

00:16:39.080 has played out

00:16:39.960 this past weekend,

00:16:41.340 but I hope there were plenty

00:16:42.260 in the first category.

00:16:43.820 And for any parents

00:16:44.740 who hadn't yet

00:16:45.520 taken their daughters

00:16:46.120 to see this movie,

00:16:47.120 but planned on going

00:16:47.860 in the future,

00:16:49.140 well,

00:17:50.840 American Meat Delivered.

00:17:53.300 I want to begin

00:17:54.180 with an interesting

00:17:54.820 altercation

00:17:55.480 at a school board

00:17:56.540 meeting in California.

00:17:57.740 Here we will see

00:17:58.600 the state superintendent

00:17:59.860 escorted out of the room

00:18:01.080 by police

00:18:01.960 during a meeting

00:18:02.900 discussing trans policies

00:18:04.340 in schools

00:18:04.920 in San Bernardino.

00:18:06.260 Fox reports,

00:18:07.160 quote,

00:18:07.520 the California state

00:18:08.280 superintendent,

00:18:08.880 Tony Thurman,

00:18:10.000 was kicked out

00:18:10.580 of a school board meeting

00:18:11.300 Friday and escorted

00:18:12.040 by police

00:18:12.500 while protesting

00:18:13.120 a policy

00:18:13.640 to inform parents

00:18:14.600 about a child's desire

00:18:15.480 to change genders.

00:18:16.860 So,

00:18:17.080 to be clear,

00:18:17.940 he was protesting

00:18:19.200 against this policy.

00:18:20.760 He was protesting

00:18:22.200 against a policy

00:18:23.400 to inform parents

00:18:25.220 about what's happening

00:18:25.960 with their own children.

00:18:28.060 Continues,

00:18:28.640 quote,

00:18:28.920 the policy

00:18:31.880 which ultimately passed

00:18:33.080 stipulated that parents

00:18:34.080 must be informed

00:18:34.820 if their child expresses

00:18:35.740 a desire to be identified

00:18:36.700 or treated as a gender

00:18:37.640 different from their

00:18:38.220 biological sex,

00:18:39.460 if the child intends

00:18:40.440 to use the bathroom

00:18:41.380 and athletic facilities

00:18:42.200 of the opposite sex

00:18:42.940 or seeks a pronoun

00:18:43.980 or name change

00:18:44.740 or if there are mental

00:18:45.540 health concerns

00:18:46.160 with the child.

00:18:46.840 So,

00:18:47.860 this policy

00:18:48.480 wouldn't even

00:18:49.420 forbid

00:18:50.080 the child

00:18:52.060 from,

00:18:52.740 you know,

00:18:53.040 identifying as

00:18:53.640 the opposite sex

00:18:54.220 or using

00:18:54.580 opposite sex

00:18:55.160 bathrooms

00:18:55.840 or competing

00:18:56.980 in opposite sex sports.

00:18:58.140 It should forbid that,

00:18:59.080 but it doesn't.

00:19:00.420 All it does

00:19:01.540 is say,

00:19:03.200 okay,

00:19:03.740 well,

00:19:04.460 the kids can do that,

00:19:05.720 but if they do,

00:19:07.220 then the parents

00:19:07.800 should know

00:19:08.620 at a minimum.

00:19:10.380 And even that

00:19:11.220 just very

00:19:11.960 basic minimum level

00:19:14.060 is too much

00:19:15.320 for the left,

00:19:16.060 of course,

00:19:16.520 and too much

00:19:17.100 for the California

00:19:17.980 state superintendent.

00:19:19.240 And here we can listen

00:19:20.240 to his objection

00:19:21.420 that he conveyed

00:19:23.560 at the meeting.

00:19:24.720 Listen.

00:19:25.800 Good evening,

00:19:26.320 Madam President,

00:19:27.220 members of the board,

00:19:28.700 parents,

00:19:29.580 teachers,

00:19:30.020 and students.

00:19:31.980 I stand before you

00:19:33.560 as a proud American,

00:19:35.460 as a man of faith,

00:19:38.000 the son of a veteran

00:19:39.100 who served in Vietnam,

00:19:41.660 who's buried

00:19:42.220 not far from here.

00:19:44.000 I love this country.

00:19:45.240 And in addition

00:19:46.860 to being the state

00:19:47.500 superintendent,

00:19:48.240 I am also a parent.

00:19:50.260 And I come before you

00:19:51.460 as a parent tonight.

00:19:53.920 And we can debate

00:19:55.000 all of the laws

00:19:56.180 and all of the policies

00:19:57.520 and practices.

00:19:58.880 I ask you to consider this,

00:20:01.000 that nearly half

00:20:02.240 of students

00:20:03.320 who identify

00:20:04.080 as being LGBTQ+,

00:20:06.360 are considering suicide.

00:20:08.380 I ask you to consider this,

00:20:12.360 that the policy

00:20:13.360 that you consider tonight

00:20:14.720 not only may fall

00:20:16.760 outside of the laws

00:20:17.860 that respect privacy

00:20:19.120 and safety

00:20:20.660 for our students,

00:20:22.780 but may put

00:20:24.080 our students at risk

00:20:25.880 because they may not

00:20:27.420 be in homes

00:20:28.200 where they can be safe.

00:20:29.640 Okay, so that's his,

00:20:32.260 that's the argument

00:20:33.040 that he tries to make,

00:20:33.980 but he has,

00:20:34.640 I guess it's a one-minute

00:20:35.520 time limit

00:20:36.100 to communicate

00:20:37.160 his objection.

00:20:39.680 And he goes over

00:20:40.900 the time limit,

00:20:42.140 he's told to leave,

00:20:43.260 and that's when

00:20:44.100 we get,

00:20:44.800 we get in exchange,

00:20:46.420 they start shouting

00:20:46.860 at each other,

00:20:47.320 the police show up.

00:20:48.520 So before we talk about it,

00:20:49.520 I want to,

00:20:50.280 I really want to parse

00:20:51.600 what he just said.

00:20:52.360 I want to get into

00:20:53.000 what he just said

00:20:53.820 because there are

00:20:55.420 a lot of problems

00:20:56.160 with it.

00:20:57.080 Before we do that,

00:20:58.020 let's watch what happens

00:20:59.280 after what you just heard.

00:21:01.020 Let's continue.

00:21:02.580 Time.

00:21:04.220 Time.

00:21:05.920 Time.

00:21:06.820 And I learned something

00:21:07.920 from a previous

00:21:08.740 board president.

00:21:11.040 Guys, be respectful.

00:21:14.080 I am going to do

00:21:15.060 a point of order

00:21:16.000 which I learned

00:21:16.800 from a previous

00:21:17.360 board president.

00:21:18.940 Tony Thurman,

00:21:20.340 I appreciate you

00:21:21.120 being here tremendously,

00:21:22.300 but here's the problem.

00:21:24.360 We're here because

00:21:25.060 of people like you.

00:21:26.320 You're in Sacramento

00:21:27.540 proposing things

00:21:29.400 that pervert children.

00:21:32.680 You had a chance

00:21:33.980 to come and talk

00:21:34.860 to me, Tony.

00:21:36.600 By all means,

00:21:37.620 you had a chance

00:21:38.320 to come talk to me.

00:21:39.760 Why was it so important

00:21:41.380 for you to walk

00:21:42.800 with my opponent?

00:21:44.460 You are the very reason

00:21:46.000 why we're in this.

00:21:50.360 May I have,

00:21:51.600 as a point of order,

00:21:53.660 as the board president,

00:21:54.460 this is not your meeting.

00:21:55.660 You may have a seat

00:21:56.260 because if I did that

00:21:56.940 to you in Sacramento,

00:21:57.960 you would not accept it.

00:21:59.420 Please sit.

00:22:00.560 You're not going

00:22:01.300 to blackmail us.

00:22:02.740 You already sent us

00:22:03.640 a blackmailing letter

00:22:04.560 on previous things.

00:22:05.560 You will not bully us

00:22:07.600 here in Chino.

00:22:08.660 Please sit.

00:22:09.300 Point of order.

00:22:11.440 In Chino.

00:22:12.940 Point of order.

00:22:13.340 We're going to take

00:22:13.700 a five-minute break.

00:22:14.720 We won't go.

00:22:16.780 We won't go.

00:22:18.540 We won't go.

00:22:19.280 We won't go.

00:22:20.340 We won't go.

00:22:21.200 We won't go.

00:22:22.180 We won't go.

00:22:22.820 We won't go.

00:22:22.940 We got out.

00:22:23.980 So then the police

00:22:24.620 show up and they

00:22:25.000 escort him out.

00:22:25.440 Okay, so,

00:22:26.860 which I really appreciate,

00:22:27.780 by the way.

00:22:28.040 I like seeing this.

00:22:29.380 He was upset.

00:22:30.100 He didn't have more

00:22:30.520 time to speak,

00:22:31.160 so he refused

00:22:31.600 to leave the podium.

00:22:32.360 The police took him out.

00:22:34.160 He doesn't like that.

00:22:35.120 Then he gave a statement

00:22:35.740 afterwards saying

00:22:36.720 that they're a bunch

00:22:37.260 of extremists

00:22:37.980 and so terrible.

00:22:39.060 Well, welcome to our world,

00:22:40.500 pal.

00:22:41.000 You know,

00:22:41.280 I mean,

00:22:41.760 I hope you enjoy

00:22:42.520 this taste of your

00:22:43.180 own medicine.

00:22:44.200 This is what parents

00:22:44.840 have been dealing

00:22:45.260 with for years.

00:22:46.680 The school implements

00:22:47.540 some new policy.

00:22:49.180 Parents show up

00:22:49.700 to voice their objections

00:22:50.600 and they're given

00:22:51.100 six and a half seconds

00:22:52.020 to speak and then

00:22:53.480 if they go over

00:22:54.660 to eight seconds,

00:22:55.500 then they're escorted

00:22:56.080 out of the room

00:22:56.440 by police.

00:22:57.280 This has been the case

00:22:58.680 for years now.

00:23:01.160 Parents have been

00:23:01.780 dealing with this

00:23:02.420 and now the state

00:23:04.260 superintendent gets

00:23:05.080 to briefly walk

00:23:06.400 in those shoes,

00:23:07.820 gets to walk

00:23:08.540 in those shoes

00:23:08.960 for a few feet

00:23:10.060 at least.

00:23:10.520 And I think

00:23:11.440 that's a good thing.

00:23:12.820 But let's go back

00:23:13.960 to what he said.

00:23:14.800 He said two things

00:23:15.640 that I want to inspect.

00:23:17.700 He said that schools

00:23:18.640 should not inform parents

00:23:20.660 when their children

00:23:21.580 transition into a new gender

00:23:22.820 or pretend to have

00:23:23.620 transitioned into a new gender

00:23:24.600 because, he says,

00:23:26.060 these kids don't feel

00:23:27.180 seen at home,

00:23:28.840 quote, unquote.

00:23:30.240 And also, he says,

00:23:31.020 nearly half of LGBT kids

00:23:32.580 are considering suicide.

00:23:34.720 Okay, well,

00:23:35.320 let's think about this.

00:23:36.160 First of all,

00:23:36.720 if these kids

00:23:38.580 don't feel seen

00:23:39.900 at home,

00:23:40.840 are we going

00:23:41.940 to help that situation

00:23:43.240 by ensuring

00:23:43.900 that parents

00:23:44.500 don't know

00:23:45.260 what's going on

00:23:46.020 with their kids?

00:23:47.080 If they don't feel

00:23:48.260 seen at home,

00:23:49.240 isn't that an argument

00:23:49.960 for not hiding

00:23:51.660 these basic facts

00:23:52.820 about a child?

00:23:55.040 If they're not

00:23:55.720 feeling seen,

00:23:56.400 maybe it's because

00:23:56.840 the parents aren't aware.

00:23:59.380 Okay, there are a lot

00:23:59.920 of things going on

00:24:00.720 with kids at school.

00:24:01.580 They spend a lot

00:24:01.920 of time in school.

00:24:03.000 A lot of things happen.

00:24:04.000 A lot of things are said.

00:24:05.800 Kids act a certain way.

00:24:07.720 Parents aren't there.

00:24:09.400 They don't know about it.

00:24:12.060 Even very involved parents,

00:24:13.620 no matter how involved

00:24:14.340 you are,

00:24:14.820 if you're sending

00:24:15.420 your kid to public school,

00:24:16.500 you are,

00:24:17.000 it's like a losing battle.

00:24:18.860 No matter what you do,

00:24:20.540 the kid is spending

00:24:21.340 the majority

00:24:22.960 of his waking hours,

00:24:24.000 at least,

00:24:24.700 you know,

00:24:25.000 in the fall,

00:24:27.440 you know,

00:24:28.280 fall,

00:24:28.780 winter,

00:24:29.220 and spring,

00:24:29.920 away from you.

00:24:31.820 And so that might be

00:24:32.480 part of the reason

00:24:32.920 why the kids

00:24:33.320 don't feel seen.

00:24:35.440 Which, again,

00:24:35.980 is a really good argument

00:24:36.740 for telling.

00:24:37.940 There are a lot of,

00:24:38.960 every argument

00:24:40.060 for telling parents

00:24:40.960 about what's going on

00:24:41.480 with their kids at school

00:24:42.020 is a good argument.

00:24:43.160 Okay, there are

00:24:43.500 countless reasons to do it.

00:24:44.620 And there are no good reasons

00:24:45.640 to hide these things.

00:24:47.260 But this is one

00:24:48.200 of those arguments.

00:24:50.420 How can the parents

00:24:51.460 see what is being

00:24:53.440 intentionally kept

00:24:54.400 from them?

00:24:55.780 This is what schools

00:24:56.660 do to parents.

00:24:57.300 They deliberately hide

00:24:58.360 crucial facts

00:24:59.280 about children

00:24:59.900 from their parents

00:25:00.760 and then blame

00:25:01.600 the parents

00:25:01.980 for not knowing.

00:25:03.220 For not knowing

00:25:04.060 what they weren't told.

00:25:06.600 Of course,

00:25:07.180 the truth is that

00:25:07.700 the left,

00:25:08.220 when it says

00:25:08.880 that kids don't feel seen,

00:25:10.960 they are describing

00:25:12.060 how they want

00:25:13.420 things to work.

00:25:15.140 Okay,

00:25:15.420 this is,

00:25:15.900 almost always,

00:25:16.720 with the left,

00:25:17.820 almost everything

00:25:18.320 that sounds descriptive

00:25:19.420 is really proscriptive

00:25:20.580 with them.

00:25:22.140 They're telling you

00:25:23.140 how they think

00:25:23.960 it should be.

00:25:24.640 So kids don't feel seen.

00:25:27.900 What he really means is

00:25:28.700 kids should not be seen

00:25:30.040 by their parents.

00:25:31.540 They don't want the kids

00:25:32.240 to be seen at home.

00:25:33.600 They want the kids

00:25:34.160 to feel isolated

00:25:35.060 and alone

00:25:35.640 and marginalized

00:25:36.280 and so on

00:25:37.060 in their homes.

00:25:38.480 So that,

00:25:39.140 so that that feeling

00:25:40.660 of marginalization

00:25:41.660 and loneliness

00:25:42.240 can be exploited

00:25:43.120 by the school system.

00:25:45.860 The not feeling seen thing

00:25:47.640 is an intentional creation

00:25:48.940 of the left.

00:25:50.380 And same goes

00:25:51.260 for suicidality.

00:25:52.180 If half of LGBT kids,

00:25:53.780 as he says,

00:25:54.280 are suicidal,

00:25:55.620 isn't that all

00:25:57.100 the more reason

00:25:57.680 to tell the parents?

00:25:58.540 I mean,

00:25:59.240 if a child falls

00:26:00.140 into a category

00:26:00.860 that makes it likely

00:26:01.720 that he's suicidal,

00:26:02.640 shouldn't the parents know?

00:26:05.340 Isn't telling the parent

00:26:06.380 the very first thing

00:26:07.620 you should do?

00:26:10.180 No matter how you feel

00:26:11.140 about the parents,

00:26:11.780 they are the ones

00:26:12.440 caring for the kids

00:26:13.180 every day.

00:26:13.560 The kids spend,

00:26:15.300 you know,

00:26:15.580 are going home

00:26:16.460 to the parents every day.

00:26:17.820 And so the parent

00:26:18.400 needs to know

00:26:19.160 if the child

00:26:20.320 is suicidal,

00:26:21.140 obviously.

00:26:22.760 And if the child

00:26:23.400 tragically goes

00:26:24.180 on to act

00:26:24.900 on those thoughts

00:26:25.740 and does kill himself,

00:26:27.660 it's your fault

00:26:28.540 if you conceal

00:26:30.200 these crucial facts

00:26:31.100 from the parents.

00:26:33.240 The child's death

00:26:34.180 is on your hands,

00:26:35.340 on the hands

00:26:36.200 of Tony Thurman

00:26:36.920 and people like him.

00:26:37.580 How many kids

00:26:38.440 have died

00:26:39.080 because they were

00:26:41.620 in crisis

00:26:42.260 and the schools

00:26:43.580 didn't knew about it

00:26:45.000 and didn't tell the parents?

00:26:48.540 They are responsible

00:26:49.540 for the deaths

00:26:50.080 of countless children.

00:26:51.020 These people

00:26:51.360 are murderers.

00:26:52.020 They are taking

00:26:52.500 impressionable,

00:26:53.440 emotionally unstable,

00:26:54.620 desperate,

00:26:55.100 suicidal kids,

00:26:56.080 isolating them

00:26:56.900 and convincing them

00:26:58.580 to conceal

00:26:59.640 their feelings

00:27:00.640 from their parents

00:27:01.580 from the people

00:27:03.180 that they live with

00:27:04.020 and who love them.

00:27:06.520 As parents,

00:27:07.220 we love our kids.

00:27:07.900 The school system

00:27:08.340 doesn't love our kids.

00:27:10.280 If you're a teacher

00:27:10.960 and you feel like

00:27:11.980 you're a good teacher

00:27:12.740 and you connect with kids

00:27:13.620 and you bond with the kids,

00:27:15.020 great.

00:27:15.280 You don't love

00:27:17.300 any of those kids

00:27:18.480 the way that we do

00:27:19.040 as parents.

00:27:22.720 And then some of those kids

00:27:23.920 do the most drastic thing,

00:27:25.480 the worst thing imaginable

00:27:26.300 and that is directly

00:27:26.980 the fault of people

00:27:27.620 like Tony Thurman.

00:27:28.660 These people are killers.

00:27:29.620 They really are.

00:27:31.540 Meanwhile,

00:27:31.940 we haven't even dealt

00:27:32.620 with the main point here,

00:27:33.880 the primary point,

00:27:34.780 which is that

00:27:35.360 if identifying as LGBT

00:27:38.060 means that a child

00:27:39.160 has a 50% chance

00:27:41.160 of becoming suicidal,

00:27:42.360 then there is something

00:27:43.100 fundamentally wrong

00:27:44.500 with LGBT identification.

00:27:48.440 Okay?

00:27:49.040 And don't tell me

00:27:49.760 it's because LGBT people

00:27:50.900 are oppressed or whatever

00:27:52.000 because that's nonsense.

00:27:54.200 That's bull****.

00:27:55.240 LGBT people are not oppressed.

00:27:56.540 They are the opposite

00:27:57.380 of oppressed in this country.

00:27:58.340 They are the least oppressed

00:27:59.520 group in history.

00:28:01.320 They are relentlessly celebrated.

00:28:03.140 They are not oppressed

00:28:03.760 in the slightest.

00:28:04.640 But regardless,

00:28:05.500 as we've covered many times,

00:28:06.700 many groups throughout history

00:28:07.640 have been oppressed,

00:28:09.100 truly oppressed,

00:28:10.180 and none of them

00:28:11.280 had a suicidality rate

00:28:12.260 of 50%.

00:28:13.000 None.

00:28:13.980 Ever.

00:28:15.680 LGBT are alone.

00:28:17.420 And when we say LG,

00:28:18.300 well, we say LGBT,

00:28:19.480 most of this is primarily the T

00:28:21.280 as the suicide rate

00:28:22.340 or the suicidal ideation rate

00:28:24.420 among trans-identifying people

00:28:25.440 is the highest out of anyone

00:28:26.640 in the alphabet cult.

00:28:28.980 Those sky-high suicide rates

00:28:30.740 mean that there is something wrong

00:28:32.460 with transgenderism,

00:28:34.140 something deeply wrong.

00:28:36.780 Fundamentally wrong

00:28:37.480 with transgenderism itself.

00:28:39.860 Transgenderism is self-destructive.

00:28:43.000 Which is why so many people

00:28:45.660 who fall victim to it

00:28:48.080 end up destroying themselves

00:28:49.520 directly through suicide

00:28:51.700 and then many others

00:28:52.820 destroy their bodies

00:28:53.860 in other means.

00:28:55.100 This gender transition,

00:28:56.260 quote-unquote,

00:28:56.680 is really more of a slow-motion suicide.

00:28:58.800 It is an act of killing yourself

00:29:00.360 piece by piece.

00:29:01.320 All the more reason

00:29:04.200 to tell the parents.

00:29:05.300 This is from The Blaze.

00:29:06.300 The New York Times

00:29:06.900 is being torched

00:29:07.860 for publishing an article

00:29:08.840 asking if it is safe

00:29:10.040 to go outside

00:29:10.820 during this cruel summer.

00:29:12.780 Is it safe to go outside

00:29:13.900 when it's so hot out

00:29:14.660 during this cruel summer,

00:29:15.680 they're asking.

00:29:16.500 Reactions Online

00:29:17.300 roasted the liberal news outlet

00:29:18.520 for pushing fear-mongering content.

00:29:20.680 In its health section,

00:29:21.640 the New York Times

00:29:22.020 published an article titled,

00:29:23.540 Is It Safe to Go Outside?

00:29:24.720 How to Navigate This Cruel Summer.

00:29:27.600 The article's sub-headline reads,

00:29:28.940 quote,

00:29:29.400 Heat, flooding, and wildfire smoke

00:29:30.940 have made for treacherous conditions.

00:29:32.880 Use this guide to determine

00:29:33.980 when it's safe to head out

00:29:35.080 and when you should stay home.

00:29:36.940 The article's written by Alicia Gupta,

00:29:39.360 who's a reporter focused

00:29:40.540 on women's health,

00:29:41.380 health inequities,

00:29:42.520 and trends in functional medicine

00:29:44.440 and wellness.

00:29:45.980 In other words,

00:29:46.440 someone that we shouldn't

00:29:46.980 pay attention to at all.

00:29:48.900 And they've tasked her

00:29:49.960 with reporting on an actual

00:29:52.060 health question about,

00:29:53.340 you know,

00:29:53.580 like things like heat exhaustion

00:29:54.980 and heat stroke.

00:29:57.740 But normally,

00:29:58.520 she's talking about

00:29:59.060 health inequities.

00:30:01.420 The article sounds the alarm

00:30:02.640 about this year's

00:30:03.300 summer of weather extremes

00:30:04.480 in the United States

00:30:05.060 in which going outside

00:30:05.920 can be riddled with perils.

00:30:08.520 Well, let me tell you something.

00:30:09.520 First of all,

00:30:09.960 going outside is always

00:30:11.200 riddled with perils.

00:30:12.880 Like, this is what we tried

00:30:13.860 to explain to you during COVID.

00:30:16.800 Just the act of leaving your home

00:30:18.760 means that you are

00:30:20.540 taking any number of risks.

00:30:22.280 The second you walk

00:30:23.440 outside your house,

00:30:25.040 there are millions of things

00:30:27.480 that could happen to you.

00:30:29.500 Many of them bad.

00:30:30.380 Some of them good,

00:30:30.900 many of them bad.

00:30:31.740 That's just,

00:30:32.340 in fact,

00:30:32.900 even if you live,

00:30:33.520 if you stay in your home,

00:30:34.980 still,

00:30:35.740 many of things,

00:30:36.400 many things could happen to you.

00:30:37.620 There are perils.

00:30:39.820 This is how bad it is,

00:30:40.880 actually.

00:30:41.160 There are countless perils

00:30:46.640 in life,

00:30:48.440 no matter where you go

00:30:50.720 and no matter what you do.

00:30:53.080 Those perils follow you around.

00:30:56.120 Your own death,

00:30:57.940 your own impending death

00:31:00.060 follows you around.

00:31:01.600 You can't escape it.

00:31:03.960 Okay?

00:31:04.220 Walk around every corner

00:31:05.180 and it's there.

00:31:05.940 Go to sleep at night.

00:31:06.680 It's sleeping right next to you.

00:31:07.500 Your own death.

00:31:09.060 Because we're all going to die.

00:31:10.720 Every single one of us.

00:31:12.280 And there's nothing

00:31:12.940 you can do about it.

00:31:13.700 Not one single thing.

00:31:15.360 You will be decomposing

00:31:16.600 in the ground

00:31:17.400 in the not-too-distant future.

00:31:19.700 That is a reality.

00:31:20.920 It just is.

00:31:22.220 I'm sorry,

00:31:23.400 but it is.

00:31:25.520 So,

00:31:26.140 going outside

00:31:27.800 is riddled with perils.

00:31:28.900 Yeah,

00:31:29.280 I mean,

00:31:29.640 true.

00:31:30.220 It is.

00:31:31.240 It is.

00:31:32.160 But,

00:31:32.520 you know what?

00:31:32.880 You just live your life anyway.

00:31:34.220 You live your life

00:31:34.800 because what else can you do?

00:31:35.900 You live your life

00:31:36.460 until you can't live it anymore

00:31:37.300 because you're dead.

00:31:39.100 Which,

00:31:39.520 again,

00:31:39.640 will happen to all of us.

00:31:40.860 I don't know if you knew that.

00:31:43.140 The NYT cites flooding

00:31:44.620 in the Northeast,

00:31:45.380 heat waves across the country,

00:31:46.540 and smoke from wildfires

00:31:47.640 in Canada.

00:31:48.160 The NYT writer advises people

00:31:49.560 to watch for flood warnings

00:31:50.740 and check air quality levels

00:31:52.440 before going outside.

00:31:54.160 The Times urges people,

00:31:55.380 if you must be outdoors,

00:31:56.480 consider wearing an N95 mask

00:31:58.600 to help reduce your exposure

00:31:59.960 to toxins.

00:32:02.240 And the New York Times

00:32:02.920 tells readers,

00:32:03.500 quote,

00:32:03.580 a heat index of 103,

00:32:05.200 103 degrees Fahrenheit

00:32:06.180 and above is dangerous.

00:32:07.560 You're likely to experience

00:32:08.600 heat cramps and exhaustion

00:32:09.600 and heat stroke as possible

00:32:11.160 if you're outside

00:32:11.760 for a prolonged period

00:32:12.840 or doing something strenuous,

00:32:14.260 according to the National

00:32:15.000 Weather Service.

00:32:16.920 Well, yeah,

00:32:17.460 this makes sense.

00:32:18.820 You know,

00:32:19.040 I mean,

00:32:19.200 this is a great idea.

00:32:19.960 Obviously,

00:32:20.520 if it's 100 degrees outside,

00:32:21.660 sweltering hot,

00:32:22.740 you're worried about

00:32:23.360 heat exhaustion,

00:32:24.360 then the best thing to do

00:32:25.400 when you go outside

00:32:27.040 is to wear a muzzle.

00:32:28.820 You know,

00:32:29.120 muzzle yourself

00:32:29.920 with a face mask.

00:32:32.460 That'll help you feel

00:32:33.280 a lot cooler,

00:32:33.880 won't it?

00:32:35.240 Man,

00:32:35.480 it's so hot outside.

00:32:36.140 Thank God I have this N95 mask.

00:32:39.580 Of course,

00:32:40.180 it's true that

00:32:40.800 very hot temperatures

00:32:41.620 can be dangerous.

00:32:42.700 That is a,

00:32:43.180 you know,

00:32:43.400 that's a fact.

00:32:44.140 Like,

00:32:44.300 that is true.

00:32:45.120 People can become dehydrated,

00:32:46.360 they can get heat exhaustion,

00:32:47.360 they can pass out

00:32:48.120 and all that.

00:32:49.360 There's nothing wrong

00:32:50.120 with pointing that out

00:32:50.760 on the face of it,

00:32:51.540 but for the media,

00:32:52.260 they're trying to tie this

00:32:53.120 into some kind of

00:32:53.760 overarching tale of doom,

00:32:55.400 some doomsday scenario.

00:32:57.480 They're taking something normal,

00:32:58.920 which is hot weather

00:32:59.660 in the summer

00:33:00.100 and attempting to turn it

00:33:00.800 into Armageddon

00:33:01.620 by folding it into

00:33:03.400 their climate change

00:33:04.440 apocalypse prophecy.

00:33:07.180 And part of that means

00:33:08.060 trying to make this seem

00:33:09.600 more complicated

00:33:11.240 than it is.

00:33:12.980 So we get a lot of this

00:33:14.500 all the time.

00:33:15.080 It's,

00:33:15.220 well,

00:33:15.280 here's what the experts

00:33:15.980 are saying,

00:33:16.520 but here's how the experts

00:33:17.660 say that you should

00:33:18.600 XYZ.

00:33:20.820 And it's something

00:33:21.600 where you really should

00:33:22.440 need expert guidance

00:33:23.580 on this.

00:33:25.740 Here's what experts

00:33:26.500 say you should do

00:33:27.080 if it's really hot outside.

00:33:30.220 The experts

00:33:30.940 and the scholars

00:33:31.580 have looked at this

00:33:32.640 and they've researched

00:33:33.400 it extensively.

00:33:34.280 They've done studies

00:33:35.060 and everything

00:33:35.440 and they've discovered

00:33:36.540 that when it's hot outside,

00:33:37.920 you should stay in the shade

00:33:40.180 and drink water.

00:33:40.880 $50 million worth of research

00:33:44.880 went into that.

00:33:46.980 Not really sure

00:33:47.580 we need the experts

00:33:48.180 to chime in on this.

00:33:49.100 Yeah,

00:33:49.260 drink water,

00:33:50.220 be in the shade

00:33:50.700 if you can,

00:33:51.220 don't overdo it,

00:33:51.920 maybe run on the treadmill

00:33:52.780 instead of jogging

00:33:53.480 around the neighborhood

00:33:54.160 if it's 105 degrees outside,

00:33:55.720 that sort of thing.

00:33:56.940 You know,

00:33:57.240 we know,

00:33:57.900 we get it.

00:33:59.160 The other point too,

00:34:00.180 as the Blaze mentions

00:34:01.160 in their article,

00:34:01.780 is that cold weather,

00:34:03.380 cold weather

00:34:04.100 is a lot more dangerous

00:34:05.560 than hot weather.

00:34:06.420 It kills many more people.

00:34:07.660 But you don't usually see

00:34:10.160 the same kind of panicking

00:34:11.340 over cold weather

00:34:12.100 because it doesn't fit

00:34:12.780 the global warming branding.

00:34:14.980 It does fit climate change,

00:34:16.500 which of course

00:34:16.800 is why they changed.

00:34:17.660 They went from global warming

00:34:18.420 to climate change

00:34:19.040 so that literally

00:34:19.760 anything that happens

00:34:20.620 in the climate

00:34:21.180 can fit under the umbrella.

00:34:27.120 But still,

00:34:27.880 they like to focus

00:34:28.500 on heat where they can,

00:34:29.580 which is why

00:34:29.960 they've made this the focus.

00:34:32.200 This is kind of funny.

00:34:32.920 When I was away

00:34:33.580 for a couple of weeks

00:34:34.540 in early July,

00:34:35.300 I heard wind.

00:34:36.000 I caught wind

00:34:36.740 of a new social media app,

00:34:38.540 which was supposed

00:34:39.080 to be a Twitter killer,

00:34:40.140 they said,

00:34:40.540 that would replace Twitter

00:34:41.400 and destroy Elon Musk.

00:34:42.600 It was called Threads.

00:34:44.360 And it was a sensation,

00:34:45.980 a huge sensation

00:34:46.680 from what I understand

00:34:47.420 for about three days.

00:34:48.720 But by the time

00:34:49.240 I got back online,

00:34:50.020 it's time had already passed.

00:34:51.060 Nobody was talking

00:34:51.620 about it anymore.

00:34:52.200 It destroyed Twitter,

00:34:53.280 destroyed Twitter

00:34:54.180 for about 45 minutes.

00:34:55.720 And that was it.

00:34:57.500 So here's the latest

00:34:58.520 from the Daily Wire.

00:34:59.460 When Meta introduced

00:35:00.240 its new social media site,

00:35:01.540 Threads,

00:35:01.860 to compete with Twitter,

00:35:02.780 supporters dubbed it

00:35:03.520 the Twitter killer.

00:35:05.160 Now Threads is on life support

00:35:06.380 as usage of the new platform

00:35:07.660 is plummeting.

00:35:09.120 On Friday,

00:35:09.480 the Wall Street Journal

00:35:10.000 reported Threads'

00:35:10.860 daily user engagement

00:35:11.600 is around 13 million members.

00:35:13.060 That's down nearly 70%

00:35:14.520 from its July 7th peak.

00:35:16.620 Furthermore,

00:35:17.160 iOS and Android app users

00:35:18.460 are spending on average

00:35:19.260 just four minutes per day

00:35:20.500 on Threads.

00:35:21.060 For comparison,

00:35:22.000 the report said

00:35:22.440 Twitter's daily users

00:35:23.260 hover around 200 million

00:35:24.400 with the average time spent

00:35:25.880 on the app

00:35:26.240 around 30 minutes per day,

00:35:28.500 which is a whole lot

00:35:31.280 in internet time.

00:35:34.380 Internet time.

00:35:35.080 That's a lot.

00:35:36.340 Liberals had high hopes

00:35:37.160 for Threads because,

00:35:38.120 unlike Twitter under

00:35:38.960 chief twit Elon Musk,

00:35:40.400 the left felt confident

00:35:41.420 that Facebook's new sister platform

00:35:42.960 would censor certain information,

00:35:45.020 chiefly any story or fact

00:35:46.280 inconvenient to the

00:35:47.040 Democrat media complex.

00:35:48.700 So anyway,

00:35:49.720 it's failing,

00:35:51.080 which was really guaranteed

00:35:53.880 from the beginning.

00:35:54.740 I mean,

00:35:55.020 it was set in stone,

00:35:56.120 basically,

00:35:56.460 that this would fail.

00:35:57.500 And we knew that

00:35:59.700 really back on July 5th

00:36:02.740 when this happened.

00:36:05.020 Watch.

00:36:06.240 I don't think they thought

00:36:07.540 of Twitter,

00:36:08.420 but in that I am being facetious,

00:36:09.960 but I say game set

00:36:11.060 Matt Zuckerberg

00:36:11.740 because he's really

00:36:12.720 learned his lesson.

00:36:14.020 He is really understands

00:36:15.780 that it does matter

00:36:16.860 that you want to be committed

00:36:18.680 to the community.

00:36:20.380 And Facebook is a very,

00:36:22.880 Instagram is a really

00:36:24.720 terrific product.

00:36:26.280 And Twitter is awful.

00:36:28.740 And my kids were saying,

00:36:29.740 like,

00:36:29.820 why are you posting on Twitter?

00:36:30.840 I said,

00:36:31.060 well,

00:36:31.180 it's free.

00:36:32.020 I said,

00:36:32.280 well,

00:36:32.380 that's just great.

00:36:33.060 The worst things in life

00:36:33.880 are free.

00:36:35.380 Does that mean you're

00:36:36.160 going to migrate?

00:36:37.100 Are you going to move

00:36:37.960 your content delivery

00:36:39.360 to Threads?

00:36:40.120 I'll put some Twitter in

00:36:41.260 just because I like the

00:36:42.260 I'm a masochist

00:36:43.780 who doesn't mind being hated,

00:36:45.080 but that's been the way

00:36:45.920 of my of most of my life

00:36:47.180 since fourth grade.

00:36:49.320 As we know,

00:36:50.040 when when Jim Cramer

00:36:50.960 gives the endorsement,

00:36:51.900 you're screwed.

00:36:52.520 If Jim Cramer says

00:36:53.320 that things are working out

00:36:54.680 well,

00:36:55.040 and then it's going to go

00:36:55.520 if Jim Cramer was your doctor

00:36:58.020 and he sat you down

00:37:00.440 in the office and said,

00:37:01.600 hey,

00:37:01.780 test results came in.

00:37:02.940 Good news.

00:37:03.700 You're fine.

00:37:04.380 Everything's fine.

00:37:05.240 Then,

00:37:05.620 you know,

00:37:06.080 you'll be dead by next week.

00:37:07.680 So Threads was doomed

00:37:08.800 from the start,

00:37:09.540 sadly,

00:37:10.380 maybe entirely because

00:37:11.220 of Jim Cramer

00:37:11.640 or maybe because

00:37:12.520 there are other problems

00:37:13.620 with it aside from Jim Cramer.

00:37:15.280 Two big problems.

00:37:16.040 One is that it's just

00:37:16.680 not a compelling pitch.

00:37:18.240 You know,

00:37:18.780 you're making a social media site

00:37:20.300 for people who think

00:37:20.920 that Twitter is too conservative.

00:37:22.640 So it's a site for like leftists.

00:37:24.400 So finally,

00:37:25.180 finally a social media site

00:37:26.600 where people on the left

00:37:27.380 can go and express themselves

00:37:28.300 and not have to worry

00:37:29.420 about conservatives intruding.

00:37:31.040 But that already describes

00:37:32.540 literally every other

00:37:33.760 social media site

00:37:34.740 in existence.

00:37:36.120 So leftists are not

00:37:37.240 in dire need

00:37:37.840 of a place to go

00:37:38.600 where they can feel safe

00:37:39.840 and conservatives

00:37:40.440 will be censored again

00:37:41.240 because they already have that

00:37:42.820 on every single

00:37:44.300 social media site

00:37:45.620 that exists

00:37:46.620 except for Twitter.

00:37:47.640 And second,

00:37:49.920 you know,

00:37:51.760 the conservative

00:37:52.400 Twitter offshoots

00:37:53.520 in the pre-Elon era

00:37:55.020 didn't work either

00:37:56.120 even though they did

00:37:57.540 have a market to serve

00:37:58.600 you would think.

00:37:59.300 In theory,

00:37:59.740 they had a market to serve

00:38:00.680 but they didn't work either

00:38:02.040 because

00:38:02.540 well,

00:38:03.900 they also didn't have

00:38:04.540 a platform like Meta

00:38:05.800 that's worth $700 billion

00:38:06.900 behind them

00:38:07.720 so that was a disadvantage.

00:38:09.660 But whether you have

00:38:10.360 $700 billion or not

00:38:11.620 the point is that

00:38:12.760 if you're making

00:38:13.220 a version of Twitter

00:38:14.340 if you're making

00:38:15.520 the fill-in-the-blank

00:38:16.520 version of Twitter

00:38:17.240 it's going to fail

00:38:18.800 because Twitter

00:38:19.400 is already

00:38:19.900 the best version

00:38:21.500 of itself.

00:38:22.660 It may not be perfect

00:38:23.640 you may not even like Twitter

00:38:24.640 but it's the best version

00:38:25.800 of Twitter is Twitter.

00:38:28.640 So if you want to

00:38:29.860 and this is a problem

00:38:30.840 that we know

00:38:31.280 conservatives have had

00:38:32.520 not just with Twitter

00:38:33.560 but across the board

00:38:34.960 in the culture

00:38:35.460 and now we see it

00:38:38.340 with the left too.

00:38:39.700 But for a long time

00:38:40.480 this was mainly

00:38:41.060 a problem you had

00:38:41.620 on the right

00:38:42.420 where people on the right

00:38:44.280 were always trying

00:38:44.980 to come up with

00:38:45.500 the conservative version

00:38:46.640 of this.

00:38:50.760 But you're not

00:38:51.380 going to be able

00:38:51.680 to do that

00:38:52.080 because there's

00:38:52.360 no innovation there.

00:38:53.800 Right?

00:38:54.000 There's nothing

00:38:54.780 actually new

00:38:55.840 that will attract people

00:38:56.860 and especially

00:38:57.560 when it comes

00:38:57.900 to social media

00:38:58.500 there has to be

00:38:58.880 some kind of innovation

00:38:59.920 something different

00:39:00.900 about it

00:39:01.520 that will make

00:39:02.320 people want to use it.

00:39:04.380 There's no innovation

00:39:05.280 there's no innovation

00:39:05.920 with this

00:39:06.280 this was just

00:39:06.840 you know

00:39:07.280 pretty transparently

00:39:08.220 a direct rip-off

00:39:09.160 of Twitter

00:39:09.520 and putting aside

00:39:12.040 all the copyright

00:39:12.700 problems there

00:39:13.400 potentially

00:39:13.840 it also just

00:39:15.800 there's no market.

00:39:17.020 We already have to

00:39:17.700 come up with

00:39:18.320 something new

00:39:18.740 which very few

00:39:20.560 people these days

00:39:21.300 are doing.

00:39:23.600 All right

00:39:23.840 let's get to

00:39:24.280 the comment section.

00:39:35.220 Buying a new car

00:39:36.000 can be stressful.

00:39:37.220 It's a stressful

00:39:37.980 experience for anyone

00:39:38.780 especially if you're

00:39:39.740 a first-time buyer

00:39:40.680 or if you have

00:39:41.080 no credit

00:39:41.580 before you walk

00:39:42.260 into a dealership

00:39:42.980 and spend the entire

00:39:43.800 day with the crowds

00:39:44.700 the stress

00:39:45.260 the potential

00:39:46.120 that you might

00:40:39.200 okay so on Friday

00:40:41.160 we talked about

00:40:41.980 therapy

00:40:42.540 and I gave my

00:40:44.460 I explained my view

00:40:45.560 in quite a lot of

00:40:47.360 detail I think

00:40:47.940 about why I think

00:40:49.280 that therapy

00:40:49.820 very often

00:40:50.580 probably most of the

00:40:51.340 time is a waste

00:40:52.160 of time

00:40:52.440 and actually

00:40:52.880 does more harm

00:40:55.120 than good

00:40:55.700 for a lot of people

00:40:56.520 and there are a lot

00:40:57.960 of reasons why

00:40:58.420 therapy is so popular

00:40:59.320 these days

00:40:59.960 and so many people

00:41:00.540 are in it

00:41:01.100 but it's not because

00:41:02.480 therapy is super

00:41:03.320 effective

00:41:03.660 in fact as we

00:41:04.660 talked about

00:41:05.160 you know

00:41:05.520 and I know

00:41:05.880 there's a little bit

00:41:06.240 of a chicken and egg

00:41:06.920 argument here

00:41:07.600 about which came first

00:41:08.400 but the fact that

00:41:09.220 there's what we're told

00:41:10.800 about this mental health

00:41:11.600 crisis it's only

00:41:12.240 getting worse and worse

00:41:12.940 we hear every year

00:41:13.660 it's worse

00:41:14.080 it's worse

00:41:14.440 there are more people

00:41:14.840 yeah but more and more

00:41:15.820 people are in therapy

00:41:16.800 so you would think

00:41:17.820 that with the popularity

00:41:18.860 of therapy

00:41:19.440 if it really is effective

00:41:20.480 that we would start

00:41:21.140 to see that manifest

00:41:22.000 in the culture

00:41:22.560 where you'd have

00:41:23.180 mental health

00:41:23.760 improving

00:41:24.280 but that's not happening

00:41:25.020 because therapy

00:41:27.500 so often

00:41:28.040 can make your problems

00:41:30.940 worse

00:41:31.260 for reasons that I

00:41:32.040 explained

00:41:32.340 I wasn't really sure

00:41:33.380 how

00:41:33.700 this is one of those

00:41:34.880 things

00:41:35.120 there are some

00:41:36.120 plenty of topics

00:41:37.760 that you talk about

00:41:38.540 and you kind of know

00:41:39.400 how it's going to be

00:41:40.000 received

00:41:40.400 and you know

00:41:41.380 that there

00:41:41.760 you know you have

00:41:42.480 people on your side

00:41:43.580 quote unquote

00:41:44.040 and people that are

00:41:44.540 not on your side

00:41:45.240 and you know

00:41:45.920 that your audience

00:41:46.400 is mostly going

00:41:46.980 to be with you

00:41:47.380 something like this

00:41:48.220 doesn't really break

00:41:48.880 down along ideological

00:41:49.740 lines

00:41:50.120 I honestly wasn't sure

00:41:51.100 I thought

00:41:51.880 there's a good chance

00:41:53.000 that like 95%

00:41:54.480 of the audience

00:41:54.900 will hate this

00:41:55.660 but I'm going to

00:41:56.680 say it anyway

00:41:57.120 and I'm going to

00:41:57.600 spend 17 minutes

00:41:58.440 on it anyway

00:41:58.880 because that's just

00:41:59.580 what we do here

00:42:00.180 but the comments

00:42:01.660 for that reason

00:42:02.540 have been interesting

00:42:03.280 have been not nearly

00:42:05.040 as combative

00:42:06.260 as I expected

00:42:07.080 in fact I'll read

00:42:07.680 some of these

00:42:08.140 one comment says

00:42:10.660 I spent seven years

00:42:11.400 in therapy

00:42:11.740 no signs of getting better

00:42:12.860 my dad picked me up

00:42:13.760 every day to go on

00:42:14.340 walks for a month

00:42:15.280 entirely changed

00:42:16.360 and grew as a person

00:42:17.440 not surprised to hear that

00:42:21.580 not surprised to hear

00:42:22.420 that you know

00:42:22.920 therapy didn't work

00:42:23.820 and then you started

00:42:24.380 spending some quality

00:42:25.220 time with your dad

00:42:25.900 and that did work

00:42:26.640 and well

00:42:27.640 why would that be the case

00:42:28.900 it's because with therapy

00:42:30.640 you're sitting and talking

00:42:32.920 to someone

00:42:33.420 who is paid

00:42:35.120 you're paying them

00:42:36.360 to sit and listen

00:42:37.120 and to care about

00:42:38.020 your problem

00:42:38.460 but although you can't

00:42:39.400 really get them to care

00:42:40.180 so that you can't

00:42:43.060 you know

00:42:43.280 they're going to care

00:42:43.780 they're not going to care

00:42:44.520 but you're paying them

00:42:46.400 to listen

00:42:46.860 it's a mercenary

00:42:49.160 kind of arrangement

00:42:49.960 right

00:42:50.660 or at least

00:42:53.060 it's a consumer

00:42:54.220 arrangement

00:42:54.680 let's call it that

00:42:55.480 or you are a consumer

00:42:57.480 and this is

00:42:58.880 someone who's running

00:42:59.600 a business

00:43:00.120 and you're talking

00:43:02.620 to them

00:43:02.860 you're talking

00:43:03.300 things out

00:43:03.840 and maybe you find

00:43:04.900 some benefit

00:43:05.300 from that

00:43:05.620 maybe you don't

00:43:06.720 as I said

00:43:07.220 I think often times

00:43:07.960 there's not a lot

00:43:08.380 of benefit

00:43:08.780 but on the other hand

00:43:10.840 if you're talking

00:43:11.400 to someone

00:43:11.880 you don't have to

00:43:13.180 you're not paying

00:43:13.840 them to listen

00:43:14.500 but they're listening

00:43:15.860 because they love you

00:43:16.760 and they care about you

00:43:17.640 and they know you

00:43:19.160 you know

00:43:19.920 like you don't have

00:43:21.140 to give them

00:43:21.540 your whole life story

00:43:22.260 to begin with

00:43:22.900 because they already

00:43:23.800 know it

00:43:24.240 and they know

00:43:24.840 so much about you

00:43:25.560 already

00:43:25.860 you don't have

00:43:27.500 to spend

00:43:28.040 10 sessions

00:43:29.920 just like

00:43:30.540 getting warmed up

00:43:31.700 where they

00:43:32.040 where they

00:43:32.340 where they get

00:43:32.980 to know you

00:43:33.480 because they

00:43:34.000 already do

00:43:34.620 yeah

00:43:35.960 that second option

00:43:37.760 is going to be

00:43:38.120 a lot more effective

00:43:38.740 when you have

00:43:40.880 someone who loves

00:43:41.660 you and cares

00:43:42.180 about you

00:43:42.680 and you're

00:43:43.480 talking to them

00:43:43.960 so

00:43:44.140 G Gates

00:43:46.660 says

00:43:47.060 I worked in

00:43:47.620 behavioral health

00:43:48.260 I used to believe

00:43:48.880 that confronting

00:43:49.420 one's own trauma

00:43:50.440 was the way to go

00:43:51.300 it's not

00:43:51.960 helping others

00:43:53.000 is the way to go

00:43:54.000 this is another

00:43:55.720 one of the issues

00:43:56.340 with therapy

00:43:56.740 so we have this idea

00:43:57.540 we gotta

00:43:57.820 you gotta like

00:43:58.300 dig down

00:43:59.280 deep within yourself

00:44:00.820 and find all the things

00:44:02.680 that have traumatized you

00:44:03.900 and find all the things

00:44:04.760 that have upset you

00:44:05.480 and confront those things

00:44:07.100 and deal with them

00:44:08.000 because we have this idea

00:44:08.700 of like

00:44:09.000 we're carrying things around

00:44:10.640 in the subconscious

00:44:11.460 and I think

00:44:12.080 I think we also

00:44:12.800 the idea of like

00:44:14.280 repressed memories

00:44:15.320 you know

00:44:15.660 you don't hear about that anymore

00:44:16.520 but that was really popular

00:44:17.380 back 30

00:44:18.020 35 years ago

00:44:19.100 everyone had repressed memories

00:44:20.680 and there was this

00:44:21.300 there was a period of times

00:44:23.000 like this mass psychosis

00:44:24.380 where there was a period

00:44:25.820 of a few years

00:44:26.740 where everybody

00:44:27.460 was going to therapy

00:44:28.140 and discovering

00:44:28.780 that they were like

00:44:29.460 abused as children

00:44:30.360 and repressed memories

00:44:31.620 that came out

00:44:32.280 and a lot of that stuff

00:44:33.080 was just

00:44:33.420 they were making that up

00:44:34.280 in their heads

00:44:34.740 so you don't hear

00:44:37.080 about repressed memories anymore

00:44:38.080 but I think

00:44:38.520 there's still kind of

00:44:39.400 there's the vestiges of that

00:44:41.240 that you still find

00:44:42.040 in therapy

00:44:42.580 and therapy speak

00:44:43.460 where they might not

00:44:44.380 call it repressed memories

00:44:45.160 but they are saying

00:44:45.900 well you might have things

00:44:46.840 that traumatize you

00:44:47.620 that are just like

00:44:48.220 back there in your subconscious

00:44:50.300 and you got to find them

00:44:51.320 and pull them out

00:44:51.880 and I think oftentimes

00:44:53.240 what people do is

00:44:54.020 maybe they're not so much

00:44:55.080 inventing things

00:44:55.920 that didn't happen

00:44:56.640 but they're taking things

00:44:58.320 that happened

00:44:58.880 that they never thought

00:44:59.980 were a big deal

00:45:00.740 and now they're discovering

00:45:02.860 oh those really are big deals

00:45:04.180 so they're re

00:45:05.780 kind of like

00:45:06.240 they're telling themselves

00:45:08.420 the story of their own lives

00:45:10.160 with the help of the therapist

00:45:12.140 things they already knew

00:45:14.480 but now they're seeing

00:45:15.820 in a brand new light

00:45:16.720 and they're finding

00:45:17.300 oh well

00:45:17.940 when my dad missed that

00:45:20.480 my soccer championship

00:45:22.060 when I was 11 years old

00:45:23.460 I'd always known about that

00:45:25.120 obviously

00:45:25.440 but I never thought

00:45:26.080 but yeah you know what

00:45:26.960 that did lead to this

00:45:28.080 and that's the reason

00:45:29.080 that this happened

00:45:29.680 and that's the reason

00:45:31.080 why I'm unemployed

00:45:31.720 at the age of 35

00:45:32.780 what do you know

00:45:33.800 so I think there's a lot

00:45:35.800 of that going on

00:45:36.440 piecing things together

00:45:37.420 and you're piecing it together

00:45:38.740 really to give yourself

00:45:39.580 an excuse

00:45:40.100 and all the while

00:45:43.000 you're

00:45:43.760 the best

00:45:44.860 and healthiest thing

00:45:46.180 is to just

00:45:48.320 that is all in the past

00:45:50.180 and you can't do anything

00:45:51.900 about it now

00:45:52.620 okay

00:45:54.040 whatever you're upset about

00:45:54.840 that happened

00:45:55.140 nothing

00:45:56.120 it's the

00:45:56.660 time has moved on

00:45:57.720 you cannot do anything

00:45:58.800 about it

00:45:59.360 so you can dwell on it

00:46:02.260 and talk about it

00:46:03.140 and talk to your therapist

00:46:04.200 and analyze all the ways

00:46:06.480 that it's affected you

00:46:07.340 and everything else

00:46:08.000 or you could just live your life

00:46:09.960 and let the past

00:46:11.200 stay in the past

00:46:11.860 and very

00:46:14.700 very often

00:46:15.880 that is not only

00:46:17.140 the best way

00:46:18.120 to deal with

00:46:20.100 past hurt

00:46:21.240 but the only way

00:46:22.820 not always

00:46:23.440 now there are times

00:46:24.260 and things happen

00:46:24.820 you have to deal with

00:46:25.300 but most of the time

00:46:26.960 like 99%

00:46:28.360 if not more

00:46:29.180 of the stuff that's happened

00:46:29.920 to you in your life

00:46:30.540 if it upset you

00:46:32.040 it's best to just move on

00:46:33.460 Walter Knitt says

00:46:37.840 if more therapists

00:46:38.640 were like Jordan Peterson

00:46:39.640 things might be different

00:46:41.100 I totally agree

00:46:44.120 but he's actually

00:46:45.160 a perfect example

00:46:46.080 of what I was talking about

00:46:47.260 that you know

00:46:48.020 if you are going to go

00:46:49.000 consult a therapist

00:46:49.840 and you are going to go

00:46:51.360 talk to somebody

00:46:52.080 the only way

00:46:53.740 that it could even

00:46:54.360 remotely be helpful

00:46:55.720 is if you're talking

00:46:56.680 to someone

00:46:57.280 who has

00:46:58.360 a lot of wisdom

00:46:59.400 and like a real

00:47:00.820 deep insight

00:47:01.660 into life

00:47:02.400 and the human condition

00:47:03.280 what Jordan Peterson

00:47:04.740 does

00:47:05.520 but he's

00:47:06.300 but this is

00:47:06.860 that is rare

00:47:08.600 it's rare to find

00:47:09.540 somebody like that

00:47:10.260 that is a rare quality

00:47:11.440 and just because

00:47:13.340 so if you find

00:47:14.200 someone like that

00:47:14.660 whether they're a therapist

00:47:15.340 or not

00:47:15.780 that's someone

00:47:16.420 you should talk to

00:47:17.060 someone who's got

00:47:18.120 a lot of wisdom

00:47:19.040 and a deep insight

00:47:19.920 into life

00:47:20.300 you know

00:47:20.880 best case scenario

00:47:21.620 is it is like your dad

00:47:22.640 or a grandfather

00:47:23.360 or somebody like that

00:47:24.040 but if you don't have

00:47:25.020 someone like that

00:47:25.460 in your life directly

00:47:26.200 and you gotta

00:47:26.560 pay someone

00:47:27.380 to talk to them

00:47:28.000 and they fall

00:47:29.220 into that category

00:47:29.900 they're wise

00:47:30.880 and insightful

00:47:31.400 then yeah

00:47:32.540 it could be very useful

00:47:33.400 to talk to them

00:47:33.820 but just because

00:47:35.740 someone has

00:47:36.660 a degree

00:47:37.820 and a license

00:47:38.620 that doesn't mean

00:47:39.420 that they have

00:47:39.980 that at all

00:47:40.600 which brings us

00:47:42.920 finally Kyle says

00:47:44.000 not everyone agreed

00:47:44.840 Kyle says

00:47:45.260 I usually like your stuff

00:47:46.120 but you need to have

00:47:46.620 a disclaimer

00:47:47.120 before some of these

00:47:47.760 segments admitting

00:47:48.300 that you aren't an expert

00:47:49.280 and you aren't qualified

00:47:50.160 therapists go to school

00:47:51.060 and receive training

00:47:51.680 to do what they do

00:47:52.320 you dismiss them

00:47:53.320 based on your own

00:47:53.940 subjective opinion

00:47:54.680 therapists go to school

00:47:57.560 and receive training

00:47:58.280 to do what they do

00:47:59.020 well

00:47:59.300 to do what exactly

00:48:01.040 see that's what

00:48:02.140 I'm trying to say Kyle

00:48:02.920 a lot of what a therapist

00:48:05.240 does is they listen to you

00:48:06.420 well like anyone

00:48:07.000 can do that

00:48:07.640 it's important

00:48:09.400 it's important to listen

00:48:10.400 okay they listen

00:48:11.520 but it only becomes useful

00:48:14.280 and if all you're looking

00:48:14.900 for is literally

00:48:15.520 just someone to listen

00:48:16.460 doesn't matter

00:48:16.920 what they say

00:48:17.560 well then okay fine

00:48:19.520 but then again

00:48:21.820 like anyone's qualified

00:48:22.900 for that

00:48:23.340 so you don't need

00:48:24.420 a license

00:48:24.800 I'm a licensed listener

00:48:26.320 all that only matters

00:48:29.860 if they then provide

00:48:31.320 some real insight

00:48:32.640 but that requires

00:48:35.040 again wisdom

00:48:35.680 it requires an understanding

00:48:37.200 that's why I'm always

00:48:37.840 harping on this

00:48:38.440 you know the human condition

00:48:39.540 you just have to understand

00:48:40.640 that you have to understand

00:48:41.400 the human condition

00:48:42.000 what it means to be a human

00:48:43.060 how humans

00:48:45.540 how human beings

00:48:46.580 are supposed to think

00:48:47.880 and act

00:48:48.440 as compared

00:48:50.040 you know

00:48:50.320 it's like you're thinking

00:48:51.580 and acting a certain way

00:48:52.620 if someone comes along

00:48:54.980 a therapist or a counselor

00:48:55.840 psychologist

00:48:56.380 and says well no

00:48:56.900 you shouldn't be thinking

00:48:57.520 and acting that way

00:48:58.280 well that requires them

00:48:59.540 to know

00:49:00.160 they need to know

00:49:01.680 how people are supposed

00:49:02.800 to think and behave

00:49:03.680 just because

00:49:07.360 there is no

00:49:08.520 subject in school

00:49:10.200 that teaches you that

00:49:10.980 there certainly is no

00:49:12.820 license

00:49:13.740 that can affirm

00:49:14.800 I have licensed

00:49:17.060 insight into life

00:49:18.440 so

00:49:19.060 so I would say

00:49:21.960 that if there are

00:49:22.460 therapists out there

00:49:23.100 that have that kind of insight

00:49:24.080 and there are some

00:49:24.800 the fact that there are therapists

00:49:26.820 it's almost like

00:49:27.960 inconsequential

00:49:28.640 because they would have

00:49:29.380 had that insight

00:49:29.860 even without that

00:49:30.580 companies are strong

00:49:32.120 arming their customers

00:49:32.900 to support abortion

00:49:33.740 canceling customers

00:49:34.780 for their political views

00:49:35.660 and making a mockery

00:49:36.580 of women by supporting

00:49:37.440 transgender models

00:49:38.400 no government agencies

00:49:39.800 institution or company

00:49:41.060 is allowed to just

00:49:41.720 be what it is anymore

00:49:42.840 and focus on fulfilling

00:49:43.700 the task that it was

00:49:44.840 made to fulfill

00:49:45.540 a beer company

00:49:46.380 can't just make beer

00:49:47.340 anymore

00:49:47.720 their primary concern

00:49:48.640 is not with brewing

00:49:49.380 and distributing beer

00:49:50.180 but with showing their support

00:49:51.480 for the left's political

00:49:52.520 and cultural agenda

00:49:53.400 well Public Square

00:49:54.620 offers a new solution

00:49:56.040 Public Square is an app

00:49:56.940 and website

00:49:57.320 where you can get connected

00:50:03.320 and freedom

00:50:08.320 have an incentive

00:50:08.980 to spend money

00:50:09.740 with companies

00:50:10.220 that don't hate you

00:50:11.460 whether you're looking

00:50:12.420 for new athletic clothing

00:50:13.320 that knows what a woman is

00:50:14.760 a banking partner

00:50:15.580 you can count on

00:50:16.220 or simply a new restaurant

00:50:17.120 in the area

00:50:17.660 where you're not going

00:50:18.180 to get lectured about

00:50:19.000 your political views

00:50:20.560 as you're trying to enjoy a meal

00:50:21.960 whatever you're looking for

00:50:32.760 that's publicsq.com

00:50:35.060 also environmentalists

00:50:36.580 are so hypocritical

00:50:38.080 we all know that

00:50:39.000 they tell you that

00:50:39.780 you know you need

00:50:40.560 to ride a bicycle

00:50:41.340 and then they go

00:50:42.180 and fly in their private jets

00:50:43.300 they'll insist that you

00:50:44.060 stop eating meat

00:50:44.900 because of cow farts

00:50:46.040 but they'll happily

00:50:46.600 chow down on wagyu beef

00:50:48.700 at Davos

00:50:50.500 I bet you'd do a better job

00:50:51.980 of conserving the environment

00:50:53.040 than the likes of John Kerry

00:50:54.520 or even Greta

00:50:55.380 the Swedish Muppet

00:50:57.240 especially if you get

00:50:58.240 Jeremy's new

00:50:59.100 green tea

00:50:59.880 and citrus hand soap

00:51:01.240 it's free of parabens

00:51:05.820 it's not tested on animals

00:51:07.380 and it's made right here

00:51:08.580 in the USA

00:51:12.020 at the same time

00:51:13.080 so do yourself a favor

00:51:14.560 wash your hands

00:51:15.820 of a hypocritical leftist

00:51:18.240 go to jeremysrazors.com

00:51:19.880 and order your green tea

00:51:21.040 and citrus hand soap today

00:51:22.400 now let's get to

00:51:23.540 our daily cancellation

00:51:24.480 two years ago

00:51:29.160 you would often hear

00:51:29.720 Democrats making

00:51:30.480 the highly implausible

00:51:31.480 argument that the

00:51:32.200 state of Florida

00:51:33.020 under Ron DeSantis

00:51:33.820 would not allow teachers

00:51:34.960 to tell students

00:51:35.840 anything about slavery

00:51:37.140 for example

00:51:38.140 the publication Phoenix

00:51:39.160 based in Tallahassee

00:51:40.200 complained that

00:51:41.060 quote

00:51:41.260 proposed civic standards

00:51:42.420 for Florida schools

00:51:43.220 don't mention the word

00:51:44.420 slavery

00:51:44.920 that same year

00:51:45.920 Miami Today

00:51:46.420 ran a piece

00:51:46.920 accusing Florida's

00:51:47.580 government of

00:51:48.140 quote

00:51:48.400 rubber stamping

00:51:49.400 a gag order

00:51:50.300 on teachers

00:51:50.860 that outlaws

00:51:51.660 mention of

00:51:52.260 some historic

00:51:52.900 views of

00:51:53.420 US racial issues

00:51:54.240 including slavery

00:51:55.100 the piece went on

00:51:56.440 to advise parents

00:51:57.480 to take their kids

00:51:58.180 out of public schools

00:51:59.140 which is a good idea

00:52:00.080 in general actually

00:52:00.900 and put them into

00:52:01.900 schools which face

00:52:02.560 quote

00:52:02.820 no such restrictions

00:52:04.060 and teachers are free

00:52:04.800 to tell all sides

00:52:05.660 of American history

00:52:06.260 the good of which

00:52:07.200 there truly is

00:52:08.140 a vast amount

00:52:08.880 but also the bad

00:52:09.960 and the ugly

00:52:10.520 now this kind of

00:52:11.900 commentary has been

00:52:12.540 repeated in Florida

00:52:13.340 for the past two years

00:52:14.360 incessantly

00:52:14.900 in fact just a few

00:52:15.720 months ago

00:52:16.080 an official at one

00:52:16.800 of the largest

00:52:17.240 teachers unions

00:52:17.900 in the country

00:52:18.600 went on PBS

00:52:19.220 to explain

00:52:19.960 that Ron DeSantis

00:52:20.900 was blocking

00:52:21.520 teachers from

00:52:22.100 telling the quote

00:52:22.760 good the bad

00:52:23.880 and the ugly

00:52:24.520 of what happened

00:52:25.180 during slavery

00:52:26.040 reconstruction

00:52:26.580 and Jim Crow

00:52:27.500 listen

00:52:27.900 the governor

00:52:29.200 says that because

00:52:29.960 this course

00:52:30.640 includes the study

00:52:31.720 of queer theory

00:52:32.700 because it talks

00:52:34.160 about political

00:52:34.740 movements that

00:52:35.600 advocated for

00:52:36.380 abolishing prisons

00:52:37.300 because it focuses

00:52:38.440 on the reparations

00:52:39.460 movement

00:52:39.900 that all of that

00:52:41.100 in his view

00:52:41.820 is political

00:52:42.440 and that it

00:52:42.940 shouldn't be

00:52:43.340 pushed on students

00:52:44.580 can a course

00:52:45.580 like this

00:52:46.100 be taught

00:52:46.680 without including

00:52:47.880 those issues

00:52:48.640 listen

00:52:49.640 a course

00:52:50.220 like this

00:52:50.820 should be taught

00:52:51.520 honestly

00:52:52.000 a course

00:52:52.520 like this

00:52:52.920 should be taught

00:52:53.440 with the truth

00:52:54.180 involved

00:52:54.720 history

00:52:55.360 sometimes

00:52:56.080 involves the good

00:52:58.300 the bad

00:52:58.720 and the ugly

00:52:59.260 of what has

00:53:00.060 happened

00:53:00.460 but we deserve

00:53:01.640 honest history

00:53:02.700 and if you're

00:53:03.580 talking about

00:53:04.140 advanced placement

00:53:05.260 African-American

00:53:06.140 history

00:53:06.980 then you're

00:53:07.640 talking about

00:53:08.320 some of those

00:53:08.760 things like

00:53:09.320 reparations

00:53:10.260 you're talking

00:53:10.660 about some of

00:53:11.100 those things

00:53:11.400 like Jim Crow

00:53:12.120 or slavery

00:53:13.040 or the

00:53:13.740 reconstruction

00:53:14.360 and the

00:53:14.780 backlash

00:53:15.080 to reconstruction

00:53:16.020 now the

00:53:17.860 message as

00:53:18.440 conveyed by

00:53:18.900 that teachers

00:53:19.240 union official

00:53:19.840 seems reasonable

00:53:20.760 at least if you

00:53:21.420 assume that his

00:53:22.320 underlying factual

00:53:23.120 claims are true

00:53:23.980 he says that he

00:53:24.580 wants Ron DeSantis

00:53:25.300 to allow discussion

00:53:26.260 about the quote

00:53:26.880 good the bad

00:53:28.040 and the ugly

00:53:28.540 of what happened

00:53:29.260 during slavery

00:53:29.820 and its aftermath

00:53:30.480 but Ron DeSantis

00:53:32.120 this union official

00:53:32.840 claims wouldn't

00:53:33.820 let that happen

00:53:34.500 that was the

00:53:36.060 position of the

00:53:36.640 unions and

00:53:37.100 democratic party

00:53:37.720 for the past

00:53:38.240 two years

00:53:38.760 as a factual

00:53:39.400 matter

00:53:39.700 it was always

00:53:40.180 false

00:53:40.560 the history

00:53:41.420 of slavery

00:53:41.840 was always

00:53:42.380 taught in

00:53:42.820 Florida schools

00:53:43.380 that entire

00:53:44.120 time

00:53:44.560 but we don't

00:53:45.880 have to get

00:53:46.180 into that

00:53:46.460 whole debate

00:53:46.880 anymore

00:53:47.160 because now

00:53:47.700 democrats have

00:53:48.280 abandoned all

00:53:49.140 their claims

00:53:49.600 about a gag

00:53:50.200 order in

00:53:50.620 Florida that

00:53:51.000 supposedly prevents

00:53:52.160 teachers from

00:53:52.680 talking about

00:53:53.240 the nuances

00:53:53.680 of slavery

00:53:54.160 because democrats

00:53:55.160 new claim

00:53:55.900 is that

00:53:56.340 under standards

00:53:57.460 that were

00:53:57.760 recently established

00:53:58.480 by Florida's

00:53:58.980 department of

00:53:59.320 education

00:53:59.640 teachers in

00:54:00.500 Florida are

00:54:00.840 actually being

00:54:01.320 forced to

00:54:01.980 talk about

00:54:02.360 slavery now

00:54:03.020 and moreover

00:54:04.200 these partisans

00:54:05.260 say teachers

00:54:06.040 are being told

00:54:06.640 to portray some

00:54:07.500 aspects of

00:54:08.100 slavery as an

00:54:08.800 affirmative

00:54:09.160 good they claim

00:54:10.280 no democrat

00:54:11.780 or media outlet

00:54:12.320 making this

00:54:12.760 claim appears

00:54:13.200 to have any

00:54:13.740 self-awareness

00:54:14.360 about how it

00:54:14.920 contradicts what

00:54:15.940 they have been

00:54:16.780 saying for years

00:54:17.840 at maximum volume

00:54:18.900 they didn't tell us

00:54:20.500 over and over

00:54:21.020 that they want

00:54:22.560 students to hear

00:54:23.180 about the good

00:54:23.780 the bad and the

00:54:24.360 ugly of various

00:54:25.060 moments in

00:54:25.440 american history

00:54:26.000 including the

00:54:26.720 century before

00:54:27.880 emancipation

00:54:28.580 they did tell us

00:54:29.300 that

00:54:29.580 didn't they go on

00:54:30.540 television and

00:54:31.040 write dozens of

00:54:31.680 articles about

00:54:32.240 this very subject

00:54:33.160 because democrats

00:54:34.920 are very worried

00:54:35.420 about ron

00:54:35.700 de santis and

00:54:36.320 they're worried

00:54:36.620 he might run

00:54:37.000 for president

00:54:37.480 or that he is

00:54:38.040 running for

00:54:38.320 president and

00:54:38.660 might actually

00:54:38.940 become president

00:54:39.540 they no longer

00:54:40.280 want that kind

00:54:41.020 of discussion

00:54:41.420 in the classroom

00:54:41.980 and they've

00:54:42.760 enlisted kamala

00:54:43.360 harris to hammer

00:54:44.120 home this new

00:54:45.160 message so i want

00:54:46.280 you to watch as

00:54:46.800 kamala harris explains

00:54:47.820 in a speech in

00:54:48.380 jacksonville that

00:54:49.680 slavery was bad

00:54:50.660 that ron de santis is

00:54:52.540 telling students it

00:54:53.140 was good and that

00:54:54.680 any form of nuanced

00:54:55.800 discussion beyond

00:54:57.080 that is totally

00:54:58.680 forbidden listen

00:54:59.920 adults know what

00:55:02.280 slavery really

00:55:03.080 involved it

00:55:05.480 involved rape

00:55:06.720 it involved

00:55:08.020 torture

00:55:08.860 it involved

00:55:10.820 taking a baby

00:55:12.700 from their mother

00:55:14.420 so in the context

00:55:17.380 of that

00:55:18.040 how is it

00:55:19.660 that anyone

00:55:22.540 could suggest

00:55:23.540 that in the midst

00:55:24.740 of these atrocities

00:55:26.400 that there was

00:55:28.660 any benefit

00:55:30.060 to being subjected

00:55:31.480 to this level

00:55:32.560 of dehumanization

00:55:33.860 in the midst

00:55:40.860 of these

00:55:41.580 atrocities

00:55:42.860 that there was

00:55:44.260 some benefit

00:55:45.520 atrocities

00:55:48.540 now put aside

00:55:49.820 for a second

00:55:50.400 kamala's feigned

00:55:51.720 outrage over the

00:55:52.540 lives of children

00:55:53.300 and the fact

00:55:53.820 that her administration

00:55:54.400 has done more

00:55:55.320 to ensure that

00:55:56.500 children are killed

00:55:57.280 than any government

00:55:58.000 in recent history

00:55:58.820 what you just saw

00:56:00.440 beyond a highly

00:56:01.140 emotional woman

00:56:01.840 yelling and pounding

00:56:02.600 on a podium

00:56:03.120 was a non sequitur

00:56:04.960 the conclusion

00:56:06.360 of kamala's

00:56:07.000 argument

00:56:07.520 doesn't remotely

00:56:09.360 follow from what

00:56:10.180 she said beforehand

00:56:10.980 she begins by saying

00:56:12.160 that you know

00:56:13.640 things that no one

00:56:14.380 would disagree with

00:56:15.140 which is that

00:56:15.900 slavery is bad

00:56:16.740 this is the kind

00:56:18.160 of bold provocative

00:56:19.040 insight you get

00:56:19.800 from democrat

00:56:20.360 politicians these days

00:56:21.320 slavery is bad

00:56:22.300 it's bad

00:56:23.900 i don't care

00:56:25.100 what anyone says

00:56:25.820 i don't care

00:56:26.580 if you hear me

00:56:27.040 hear me say

00:56:27.620 slavery is bad

00:56:29.340 i'm gonna take

00:56:30.640 a stand right now

00:56:31.580 and declare

00:56:32.020 i don't like slavery

00:56:33.680 it's not just bad

00:56:36.420 in fact i would say

00:56:37.080 it's very bad

00:56:37.860 you have to see

00:56:40.180 things from their

00:56:40.640 perspective though

00:56:41.300 democrats these days

00:56:42.260 they don't get

00:56:43.000 the opportunity

00:56:43.500 to be morally

00:56:44.580 right very often

00:56:45.740 because their

00:56:46.760 ideology won't

00:56:47.500 allow it

00:56:48.000 so kamala harris

00:56:50.000 is relishing

00:56:50.640 this chance

00:56:51.180 to say something

00:56:51.780 that isn't on its

00:56:52.680 face morally

00:56:53.520 insane

00:56:54.080 but then she

00:56:55.860 finishes with this

00:56:56.480 quote quote

00:56:57.180 so in the context

00:56:58.640 of that how is it

00:56:59.500 that anyone could

00:57:00.140 suggest that in the

00:57:00.880 midst of these

00:57:01.320 atrocities that there

00:57:02.080 was any benefit to

00:57:03.020 being subjected to

00:57:03.740 this level of

00:57:04.320 dehumanization

00:57:04.980 later in her

00:57:06.620 remarks she went

00:57:07.260 on to compare

00:57:08.120 florida's curriculum

00:57:08.960 to holocaust

00:57:09.980 denial

00:57:10.360 listen

00:57:11.220 but let's be

00:57:13.040 clear

00:57:13.420 on this issue

00:57:17.100 as in

00:57:19.420 this is not the first

00:57:21.260 time in history

00:57:21.960 that we've come

00:57:22.660 across this kind

00:57:23.540 of approach

00:57:24.120 this is not the

00:57:26.260 first time

00:57:27.040 that there are

00:57:28.380 powerful forces

00:57:29.620 that have attempted

00:57:31.120 to distort history

00:57:33.160 for the sake of

00:57:35.260 political ends

00:57:36.340 think about in the

00:57:38.880 past how we have

00:57:39.800 seen attempts to

00:57:40.960 minimize and even

00:57:42.200 deny the holocaust

00:57:43.360 think about

00:57:45.820 those who tried

00:57:47.340 to rewrite the

00:57:48.600 history of the

00:57:49.400 Japanese internment

00:57:50.520 camps

00:57:51.100 erase our

00:57:53.900 nation's dark

00:57:55.560 and sordid

00:57:56.500 history and how

00:57:57.680 we have treated

00:57:58.420 the native people

00:57:59.520 and in particular

00:58:00.220 through educational

00:58:01.240 systems

00:58:02.000 she is so happy

00:58:04.600 you can tell she's

00:58:05.060 so proud of herself

00:58:05.800 because she's finally

00:58:06.700 giving a speech

00:58:07.380 where at least people

00:58:08.100 know what she's

00:58:09.240 saying

00:58:09.620 usually she's

00:58:10.620 babbling incoherently

00:58:11.580 and she just has

00:58:12.140 blank stares and

00:58:13.220 expressions staring

00:58:14.120 back at her

00:58:14.700 but here it's like

00:58:15.980 at least people know

00:58:17.320 what she's talking

00:58:18.240 about and so

00:58:19.800 she gets to be

00:58:20.380 kind of right

00:58:20.980 about something

00:58:21.760 at least that

00:58:22.120 slavery is bad

00:58:22.800 and she gets to

00:58:23.660 say stuff that

00:58:24.260 people at least

00:58:24.960 understand that

00:58:25.500 she's so excited

00:58:26.260 I mean and

00:58:27.020 she's given

00:58:27.980 multiple speeches

00:58:28.620 about this by the

00:58:29.260 way they're going

00:58:29.520 to send her

00:58:29.860 around the

00:58:30.400 country on a

00:58:31.040 tour the

00:58:31.940 slavery is bad

00:58:32.920 tour she's going

00:58:33.940 to go to every

00:58:34.400 state in the union

00:58:35.540 to give a speech

00:58:36.220 slavery is bad

00:58:37.200 it's so bad

00:58:39.060 but notice what

00:58:40.880 she said there

00:58:41.220 she said think

00:58:41.720 about the past

00:58:42.200 how we have

00:58:42.800 seen attempts to

00:58:43.740 minimize and even

00:58:44.440 deny the holocaust

00:58:45.220 that's that's

00:58:45.840 Kamala Harris

00:58:46.240 saying that

00:58:46.720 Florida's new

00:58:47.660 curriculum is akin

00:58:48.680 to denying that

00:58:49.880 the holocaust

00:58:50.360 happened

00:58:50.740 is that comparison

00:58:52.920 reasonable or is it

00:58:54.720 as stupid and

00:58:55.440 insulting as it

00:58:56.240 sounds well let's

00:58:57.020 see you could pull

00:58:58.780 up the Florida

00:58:59.200 curriculum right

00:59:00.100 now if you want

00:59:00.840 it's all over the

00:59:01.360 internet a national

00:59:02.040 review Charles

00:59:02.600 Cook has gone

00:59:03.440 through the

00:59:03.820 curriculum and

00:59:04.360 posted every

00:59:04.980 single reference

00:59:05.760 to the word

00:59:06.380 slavery slave and

00:59:07.800 slaves in the

00:59:09.040 curriculum he

00:59:10.120 found a hundred

00:59:10.780 and ninety one

00:59:11.560 results so they're

00:59:13.540 trying to erase and

00:59:14.420 minimize slavery it's

00:59:15.560 mentioned a hundred

00:59:16.340 and ninety one

00:59:17.260 times in the

00:59:18.440 curriculum if you

00:59:20.260 go through these

00:59:20.840 hundred and ninety

00:59:21.420 one results there's

00:59:22.240 no possible way that

00:59:23.200 any reasonable person

00:59:24.240 could conclude that

00:59:25.360 the curriculum is

00:59:26.040 denying that slavery

00:59:27.220 occurred in the

00:59:27.740 United States or

00:59:28.440 that it or denying

00:59:29.240 that it was a very

00:59:29.740 bad thing the

00:59:31.700 curriculum includes

00:59:32.340 mandatory discussions

00:59:33.340 of quote harsh

00:59:34.580 conditions in the

00:59:35.320 Caribbean plantations

00:59:36.340 curriculum also

00:59:37.480 mandates discussion

00:59:38.300 of the quote living

00:59:39.780 conditions of slaves

00:59:40.660 and British North

00:59:41.240 American colonies the

00:59:42.360 Caribbean Central

00:59:43.620 America and South

00:59:45.100 America including

00:59:45.700 infant mortality

00:59:46.480 rates it's also

00:59:48.760 infant mortality

00:59:49.360 rates are bad

00:59:50.040 that's a bad

00:59:50.440 thing so I mean

00:59:51.360 that's that's all

00:59:52.120 filed into the

00:59:52.700 you know maybe

00:59:54.640 they need to

00:59:55.020 stipulate that in

00:59:55.740 the curriculum so

00:59:56.480 nobody accuses them

00:59:57.420 of supporting infant

00:59:58.240 mortality rates

00:59:58.980 there's also a

01:00:00.700 section on the

01:00:01.200 ramifications of

01:00:02.240 prejudice racism and

01:00:03.360 stereotyping on

01:00:04.000 individual freedoms as

01:00:05.120 well as the

01:00:05.700 struggles faced by

01:00:06.540 African American

01:00:07.100 women in the

01:00:07.900 19th century as it

01:00:08.720 relates to issues of

01:00:09.580 suffrage business and

01:00:10.680 access to education

01:00:11.660 again that's all in

01:00:13.400 the Florida

01:00:13.660 curriculum

01:00:14.060 there's several

01:00:15.580 sections that

01:00:16.080 discuss the

01:00:16.560 contributions of

01:00:17.280 blacks like

01:00:17.900 quote instruction

01:00:18.900 including examining

01:00:19.760 the roles and

01:00:20.300 efforts of black

01:00:20.960 nurses soldiers

01:00:21.660 spies scouts and

01:00:22.620 slaves during the

01:00:23.420 Civil War

01:00:23.820 this is what Kamala

01:00:25.540 Harris is comparing

01:00:26.260 to Holocaust denial

01:00:27.540 do the leaders of

01:00:29.800 the Democrat Party

01:00:30.540 agree with that

01:00:31.340 seems they do

01:00:32.520 because none of

01:00:32.920 them have publicly

01:00:33.580 condemned what

01:00:34.240 Kamala Harris said

01:00:35.040 on what basis are

01:00:37.100 they making this

01:00:37.660 absurd claim that

01:00:38.800 this curriculum

01:00:39.660 amounts to denial

01:00:40.720 that slavery ever

01:00:41.720 occurred how can

01:00:43.800 you deny it

01:00:44.260 occurred when you

01:00:44.680 mention it 191

01:00:45.700 times well here's

01:00:48.040 their argument in

01:00:49.880 the entire curriculum

01:00:50.700 there is one 191

01:00:54.860 mentions one of

01:00:56.640 those 191 mentions

01:00:57.900 briefly mentions

01:00:59.460 that some slaves

01:01:01.200 learned skills that

01:01:02.660 they applied later in

01:01:03.960 life after being

01:01:05.240 freed so here it is

01:01:06.760 quote instruction

01:01:08.240 includes how slaves

01:01:09.160 develop skills which

01:01:10.220 in some instances could

01:01:11.760 be applied for their

01:01:12.580 personal benefit now

01:01:14.400 regardless of how that

01:01:15.260 makes Democrats feel

01:01:16.200 the only relevant

01:01:16.920 question here if you

01:01:17.800 care about the

01:01:18.340 education of children

01:01:19.140 and the truth is

01:01:20.400 whether that statement

01:01:21.200 is true and

01:01:21.980 obviously it's true

01:01:23.240 it's an obvious fact

01:01:24.740 that some slaves

01:01:25.480 develop skills that

01:01:26.300 help them later in

01:01:26.980 life why is that a

01:01:29.300 bad thing to point

01:01:29.860 out it's not a

01:01:30.300 defense of slavery to

01:01:31.560 point that out only

01:01:33.880 the dumbest person in

01:01:35.420 the world of you

01:01:36.380 know Kamala Harris

01:01:37.200 and everyone like her

01:01:38.140 could hear that but

01:01:40.520 some slaves develop

01:01:41.140 skills that help

01:01:41.560 them later in life

01:01:42.040 and and think oh so

01:01:43.360 you think slavery is

01:01:44.140 good then you think

01:01:45.180 everyone should be

01:01:45.780 enslaved huh it's also

01:01:48.880 not the same thing as

01:01:49.700 saying blacks benefited

01:01:50.960 from slavery as

01:01:51.680 Kamala Harris claims and

01:01:52.700 all the headlines claim

01:01:53.560 as well Newsweek even

01:01:55.140 ran a piece entitled

01:01:56.320 Ron DeSantis accused

01:01:57.580 of being pro-slavery due

01:01:59.080 to New Florida

01:02:00.000 curriculum one NPR

01:02:01.900 station reported

01:02:02.600 quote advocates say

01:02:03.500 that New Florida

01:02:04.140 standards require

01:02:04.880 slavery to be taught

01:02:05.920 as beneficial that's

01:02:08.220 what they're claiming

01:02:08.520 they're saying that

01:02:09.020 the curriculum states

01:02:10.020 that slavery itself

01:02:11.600 was beneficial to the

01:02:13.040 slaves but to say

01:02:14.460 that slaves benefited

01:02:15.540 or that slavery is

01:02:16.360 beneficial would be to

01:02:17.300 argue that they were

01:02:18.020 better off being

01:02:19.440 slaves like if it was

01:02:20.700 really a benefit to

01:02:22.000 them then that's what

01:02:23.380 you would be saying

01:02:23.980 is that they were

01:02:24.600 better off being

01:02:25.380 slaves the curriculum

01:02:27.140 doesn't teach that

01:02:28.280 obviously now

01:02:29.880 personally I have

01:02:30.840 argued personally that

01:02:31.880 black Americans today

01:02:32.980 are in many cases

01:02:34.240 better off because of

01:02:35.340 slavery due to the

01:02:36.000 fact that they're

01:02:36.460 now here in America

01:02:37.420 instead of being in

01:02:38.420 Africa but that's a

01:02:40.240 very different argument

01:02:41.160 it's not the same

01:02:41.940 thing as saying that

01:02:42.560 the slaves themselves

01:02:43.680 benefited from the

01:02:44.680 practice of slavery

01:02:45.840 which is what they're

01:02:47.440 claiming this curriculum

01:02:48.180 does and anyway I

01:02:49.820 didn't write the

01:02:50.200 curriculum so we're

01:02:51.560 left with the fact that

01:02:52.460 these claims are just

01:02:53.420 simply lies this is the

01:02:55.220 don't say gay narrative

01:02:56.360 all over again the left

01:02:57.520 made up a piece of

01:02:58.240 legislation back then

01:02:59.280 you know I say back

01:03:00.300 then a couple years ago

01:03:01.140 that saying that they

01:03:02.620 were banning the mention

01:03:03.600 of gay people and now

01:03:04.960 they're making up

01:03:05.580 pro-slavery curriculum

01:03:06.880 these are the kinds of

01:03:08.760 brazen lies you can

01:03:09.740 tell when you have no

01:03:10.660 soul and no capacity

01:03:11.780 for shame and also

01:03:13.180 when you have all the

01:03:13.780 fact checkers quote

01:03:14.700 unquote on your side

01:03:15.720 Florida education

01:03:18.000 officials did their

01:03:18.720 best to point all this

01:03:19.580 out to the news

01:03:20.440 outlets they provided a

01:03:21.940 list of slaves who

01:03:22.700 developed quote highly

01:03:23.620 specialized trades from

01:03:24.800 which they benefited

01:03:25.520 after being freed in

01:03:27.800 response left-wing media

01:03:28.800 outlets and academics

01:03:29.680 have flailed around

01:03:30.880 trying to debunk that

01:03:32.200 list some of it's kind

01:03:33.760 of amusing mother jones

01:03:34.700 for example wrote that

01:03:35.640 many of these slaves

01:03:36.780 quote launched their

01:03:37.900 professions only after

01:03:39.340 gaining their freedom

01:03:40.280 well no kidding I mean

01:03:42.840 that's exactly what the

01:03:43.720 language is saying

01:03:44.540 obviously the slaves

01:03:46.280 didn't launch their

01:03:46.940 professions while they

01:03:47.920 were still enslaved no

01:03:49.640 one is saying that

01:03:50.700 then they argue that a

01:03:52.980 handful of slaves on the

01:03:54.120 list were actually born

01:03:55.040 freed and not into

01:03:56.400 slavery which the Florida

01:03:57.500 Department of Education

01:03:58.280 has disputed but

01:03:59.140 regardless the underlying

01:04:00.620 point that the DOE is

01:04:02.300 making is obviously true

01:04:03.620 which is why they're

01:04:04.700 trying to reduce the

01:04:05.600 argument to a small

01:04:06.620 number of individual

01:04:07.400 slaves the point is

01:04:08.580 that while slavery was

01:04:09.860 immoral as a factual

01:04:11.060 matter some slaves did

01:04:12.360 use skills they learned

01:04:13.340 once they were freed no

01:04:14.560 one disputes that and

01:04:16.400 that's what should be

01:04:16.860 taught in schools it

01:04:18.540 shouldn't be suppressed

01:04:19.260 because Kamala Harris

01:04:20.100 and mother jones don't

01:04:20.900 like it this point of

01:04:23.220 slaves developing skills is

01:04:24.200 also not the focal point

01:04:25.680 of the curriculum okay

01:04:27.580 they're making it trying

01:04:28.300 to make it seem like

01:04:28.940 that's the entire

01:04:29.740 curriculum is about all

01:04:30.760 the skills that slaves

01:04:31.640 learned it's mentioned

01:04:32.860 one time out of 191

01:04:35.220 instances the media has

01:04:37.420 made it the focal point

01:04:38.340 for obvious reasons

01:04:39.320 the left wants to

01:04:41.120 suppress any mention of

01:04:42.160 slavery that goes beyond

01:04:43.520 simply shouting that

01:04:44.760 it's bad they want to

01:04:46.680 do this for the same

01:04:47.540 reason that they

01:04:48.280 suppress data on

01:04:49.040 climate change that

01:04:49.840 makes it clear that

01:04:50.480 forest fires are getting

01:04:51.360 less common or pretty

01:04:52.780 much any statistic

01:04:53.440 whatsoever about

01:04:54.160 demographics of crime

01:04:55.300 you know if a leftist

01:04:57.760 fears you'll draw an

01:04:59.140 unapproved conclusion

01:05:00.280 from factual information

01:05:01.600 then you're not allowed

01:05:02.640 to see the factual

01:05:03.520 information if you

01:05:05.140 ignore their

01:05:05.720 restrictions if you

01:05:06.980 dare to make an

01:05:07.600 inconvenient but

01:05:08.540 accurate point about

01:05:09.620 slavery then you must

01:05:11.180 be pro-slavery just like

01:05:14.000 if you talk about crime

01:05:14.780 statistics then you must

01:05:15.600 be a racist now to their

01:05:17.980 credit in this case

01:05:18.860 Florida's government

01:05:19.500 hasn't backed down in

01:05:21.060 this country you're

01:05:21.680 allowed to believe in

01:05:22.440 nuance and for good

01:05:23.360 reason without nuance

01:05:24.800 you get the kind of

01:05:25.620 discourse that makes

01:05:26.380 everybody dumber and it

01:05:28.360 makes the world a lot more

01:05:29.160 dangerous also and maybe

01:05:31.740 that's why they're doing

01:05:32.400 it so good for Florida

01:05:33.520 for fighting back and

01:05:34.780 that's also why Kamail

01:05:36.160 Harris the media and

01:05:37.340 everybody peddling this

01:05:38.280 latest lie about Florida

01:05:39.340 are all canceled and

01:05:42.160 that'll do it for this

01:05:42.660 portion of shows and move

01:05:43.460 over to members block

01:05:44.160 hope to see you there if

01:05:45.320 not talk to you tomorrow

01:05:46.600 godspeed

01:05:47.400 you

01:06:02.640 you

01:06:02.760 you

01:06:04.700 you

01:06:05.820 you
