Summary
The Biden administration has failed once again, and the left is cheering the rape and murder of innocent civilians. Also, the UN is focused on other things today, somehow, like protecting the rights of "quote-unquote" trans lesbians. And today is Columbus Day, which the left has tried to replace with Indigenous Peoples Day. I ll explain why Columbus is a great man who deserves to be celebrated, and why Indigenous People Day is a laughable disgrace.

Today on the Matt Wall Show, war has erupted in the Middle East. The Biden administration
00:00:03.300
has failed once again. Leftists are cheering the rape and murder of innocent civilians.
00:00:06.860
We will try to make sense of all of this today. Also, the UN is focused on other things today
00:00:11.240
somehow, like protecting the rights of quote unquote trans lesbians. And today is Columbus
00:00:15.940
Day, which the left has tried to replace with Indigenous Peoples Day. I'll explain why Columbus
00:00:19.740
is a great man who deserves to be celebrated and why Indigenous Peoples Day is a laughable
00:00:24.320
disgrace. All of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.

The G20 or Group of 20 is an international forum for governments and central bank governors.
00:00:57.260
It was established in response to the financial crisis of the late 1990s with the aim of promoting
00:01:02.000
international financial stability. Well, last month, the G20 announced a plan to impose digital
00:01:06.200
currencies and digital IDs on their respective populations. Central bank digital currencies
00:01:10.660
essentially allow the government to track every purchase you make. Even if you don't follow
00:01:14.760
international economic policies that closely, you should be concerned about this. And you should
00:01:18.520
consider diversifying at least some of your assets into physical gold with the help of Birch Gold
00:01:22.980
Group. Call Birch Gold today to preserve your savings in a tax-sheltered retirement account.
00:01:27.780
If you have an IRA or 401k from a previous employer that's just gathering dust, we'll call Birch Gold and
00:01:32.240
they will help you convert it into an IRA in gold. You won't pay a penny out of pocket. They simply
00:01:36.520
convert that 401k that's just sitting in a bank somewhere into physical gold, which can't be
00:01:41.140
tampered with. Text Walsh to 989898 and Birch Gold will send you a free info kit on gold. If digital
00:01:46.480
currency becomes a reality, you'll be glad you have something physical to fall back on. Text Walsh to

00:01:59.780
advisor, Jake Sullivan, spoke at an event called the Atlantic Festival in Washington, D.C. Now, if you're not
00:02:05.100
familiar with the Atlantic Festival, there's a reason for that. This is an exclusive event that's intended
00:02:10.140
only for the preeminent thought leaders in the United States. At the Atlantic Festival,
00:02:14.400
only those with, quote, complex ideas are invited to give speeches and attend the happy hours and all
00:02:20.680
the rest of it. And Jake Sullivan, who went to Yale Law School and won a Rhodes Scholarship and who now
00:02:25.700
oversees the entire national security apparatus of the United States government, certainly met that
00:02:31.240
very high bar. So what wisdom did Jake Sullivan bestow on his listeners at the Atlantic Festival
00:02:37.380
just a week and a half ago? What insight did he share? Thankfully for us plebs, the footage of
00:02:43.920
his remarks have been uploaded to the internet. And, you know, I watched the whole thing, so you don't
00:02:49.120
have to. I want to show you just one snippet that, in light of recent events, is both highly revealing
00:02:55.080
and very damning, to say the least. Watch. And what we said is we want to depressurize,
00:03:04.060
de-escalate, and ultimately integrate the Middle East region. The war in Yemen is in its 19-month
00:03:10.320
of truce. For now, the Iranian attacks against U.S. forces have stopped. Our presence in Iraq is
00:03:16.600
stable. I emphasize for now because all of that can change. And the Middle East region is quieter today
00:03:22.320
than it has been in two decades. Everything's quiet. Everything's quiet in the Middle East,
00:03:29.040
according to Joe Biden's top advisor on national security matters. In fact, they're so quiet that
00:03:33.360
Sullivan implies that he stopped paying much attention to the entire region. What did he
00:03:36.800
focus on instead? Well, if you listen to his whole discussion there, you'll learn the answer to that
00:03:41.320
question. And Sullivan says that he diverted his attention to topics like climate change on January 6th,
00:03:47.260
and how Donald Trump is a threat to democracy. All topics that were silly at the time, a week and
00:03:53.080
a half ago, and seem somehow even sillier today. Now, at this point, there's no need to go into great
00:03:59.160
detail about the events of this weekend, which reveal how horribly wrong Sullivan's assessment
00:04:03.900
was and how totally incompetent he is. I'm not going to recount all the violence and horror that
00:04:08.860
unfolded in Israel over the weekend. You know what happened by now, I'm sure. Hamas invaded Israel.
00:04:14.140
They killed hundreds, probably thousands of Israelis. They raped women next to the corpses
00:04:19.140
of their dead friends. They executed the elderly at bus stops. I don't need to go into detail because
00:04:24.680
the footage, which is unbelievably horrific, is on social media for anyone to see, and millions of
00:04:30.160
people have seen it. And so there's no dispute about anything that happened. We all know exactly
00:04:35.260
what happened. There's also no dispute, at least not anymore, that the so-called experts in the foreign
00:04:41.060
policy establishment of the U.S. government have no clue what they're doing. The people we pay to
00:04:46.680
figure out what's happening overseas, the Rhodes scholars like Jake Sullivan, are in fact completely
00:04:52.280
and totally inept. They have no idea what they're talking about. They also don't seem to care, by the
00:04:58.280
way. As American citizens were being held hostage by Hamas, Joe Biden held a barbecue in the Rose Garden
00:05:04.580
for White House staff. There was a live band and everything. They had a great time. They partied,
00:05:09.240
they ate ribs, while the Middle East descended into anarchy, which actually, come to think of it,
00:05:14.560
is not a very shocking response. I mean, Biden has, after all, taken dozens of vacations all throughout
00:05:19.460
his tenure as president, while our own country falls apart. So this is how he responds to situations
00:05:26.220
in our country and abroad. However you assess the geopolitical situation, the unavoidable
00:05:33.160
conclusion of the past few days is that the Biden administration has been a complete and historic
00:05:39.360
failure in every measurable respect. Our economy is stagnant. Our borders are in a constant state of
00:05:46.240
chaos. Our cities are overrun with criminals out on bail. We now have two major wars that have broken
00:05:52.960
out under Joe Biden's watch. Biden's top men didn't see either one of those wars coming.
00:05:59.200
All, they get all the Rhodes Scholars, all the Ivy League geniuses together. They didn't see either
00:06:05.060
one of those things coming. And they clearly had no idea how to respond to either one.
00:06:10.240
With the war in Ukraine, Joe Biden dispatched Kamala Harris to reduce tensions just before what war
00:06:15.180
broke out. He promised to bankrupt Russia with sanctions, which only push Russia towards more lucrative
00:06:20.900
deals with China. Nearly two years later, with the war in Israel, Jake Sullivan was busy chatting up
00:06:25.920
the Atlantic Festival about how peaceful and quiet the region was. And now they're cooking hamburgers.
00:06:32.960
I mean, these people are worse than malevolent. They are malevolent and stupid, which is a
00:06:37.860
radioactive combination. Now, you could rightly point out that it's not America's job to watch Israel's
00:06:46.400
border, especially when we aren't even watching our own borders. We're not the world's policemen,
00:06:50.460
as much as neocons want us to be. But at the same time, the full-scale invasion of an ally seems
00:06:57.140
kind of like something our intelligence agencies should have known about in advance.
00:07:02.420
You know, we pay these agencies a lot of money, a lot of tax money, billions and billions of dollars.
00:07:10.720
And so you'd think they'd be using it to find out about things like this before they happen.
00:07:15.200
We're talking about a highly militarized, highly surveilled border, which was infiltrated seemingly
00:07:21.660
without any resistance whatsoever. I mean, how could anything like that happen? It's possible
00:07:27.900
that if our intelligence agencies weren't so busy monitoring angry mothers at school board meetings
00:07:32.360
and obsessing over carbon emissions in the United States, then they would have had time and, you know,
00:07:37.440
more time and energy to discover stuff like this before it happens.
00:07:40.220
And that's assuming that they didn't know about this before it happened, of course. But that may
00:07:46.480
not be an entirely safe assumption. You know, there's more than enough reason to think that the US
00:07:52.060
government indirectly, if unintentionally, perhaps, assisted the militants who attacked Israel over
00:07:58.740
the weekend. The Wall Street Journal just reported that Iran helped to plot the attack and gave it the
00:08:03.460
green lights. And just so happens that, coincidentally enough, the Biden administration also recently
00:08:08.760
unfroze $6 billion that Iran has access to. And that raises a pretty obvious question, which is,
00:08:15.300
could that money have contributed to this weekend's attack in any way?
00:08:19.760
Now, if you were watching Fox News the other day, you heard the Pentagon's response via one of their
00:08:23.700
many stenographers who masquerade as journalists. Watch.
00:08:28.120
I think you have to push back on some of the statements in that statement from former President
00:08:35.120
Trump. It is an exaggeration to suggest that there is any evidence that any of the money that was
00:08:44.520
released as part of that hostage deal, that a lot of that money was tied up in, you know,
00:08:51.840
in goods. What I would say is that Iran has been funding Hamas across four presidents.
00:09:02.860
So you just heard Jennifer Griffin, Fox is a senior national security correspondent,
00:09:07.000
explaining that there's no way that the $6 billion we just unfroze for Iran had anything to do with
00:09:12.000
this weekend's attacks. Coincidentally enough, at the same time, Griffin was saying that the Biden
00:09:16.200
administration was pushing the same exact talking points on social media. Adrian Watson,
00:09:20.020
a spokeswoman for the National Security Council said, quote, not a single cent from these funds
00:09:24.580
has been spent. And when it is spent, it could only be spent on things like food and medicine for
00:09:28.720
the Iranian people. Now, what's interesting about that explanation, aside from what it reveals about
00:09:33.160
how the corporate media is just a mouthpiece for the government, is that it doesn't even begin to
00:09:38.160
make sense. I mean, let's just assume, let's assume that what they're saying is true. Let's assume
00:09:43.160
that we gifted Iran $6 billion in unfrozen assets, but we told them that they could only use it on
00:09:49.760
food and medicine. And then let's assume, it's a lot of assumptions here that probably are totally
00:09:53.200
unjustified, but then let's assume that Iran played by those rules and, you know, scouts honor and all
00:09:58.420
that, and they refuse to spend any of that money on anything resembling a terrorist attack in Israel.
00:10:04.960
Even if all that is true, it doesn't follow that the money had nothing to do with the terrorist attack,
00:10:09.760
as the Pentagon and corporate media are claiming. You don't have to be an economist to
00:10:14.800
understand that money is fungible. If you give someone $6 billion that they weren't expecting
00:10:20.320
to have, and then, you know, what that's going to do is that's going to free up $6 billion in
00:10:25.540
their budget for other activities that they might choose to engage in. So this is the, if it sounds
00:10:31.000
familiar, this is the same game the media plays when it claims that the half a billion dollars in tax
00:10:36.080
money we send to Planned Parenthood every year doesn't fund abortions. Now, it might not,
00:10:41.320
but it frees up the money that does, which is exactly the same thing. Like, if you get money
00:10:48.420
from this source and money from that source, and then you spend it on this, it makes no difference
00:10:53.840
what pot you're pulling from. It's all the same money, because money is fungible.
00:11:00.700
This point, then, what's needed is a comprehensive, impartial investigation into why we just unfroze
00:11:07.540
$6 billion in assets for Iran and whether that decision allowed Iran to bankroll an invasion
00:11:12.380
of Israel. But there's no chance any investigation like that will ever occur, because Iran isn't a
00:11:16.980
mother, you know, at a school board meeting complaining about pornography in the school
00:11:20.060
library. Therefore, this will get buried, even though there's a lot of evidence that the U.S.
00:11:25.000
government has indirectly and, we hope, inadvertently, helped support what happened
00:11:30.140
this weekend in Israel. Whatever the national security establishment and their servants in the
00:11:37.060
media tell you, this whole thing is either a massive intelligence and logistics failure by
00:11:43.800
the Biden administration or something much more sinister. The Pentagon and their lackeys in corporate
00:11:48.680
media, they can try to run interference, they can do whatever they want to try to change the subject,
00:11:53.440
but those are the two possibilities we're dealing with, and there really is no third option.
00:11:57.680
As horrible as that is to contemplate, there is still, actually, an even bigger story here,
00:12:05.380
bigger than the actions of the U.S. government to enrich terrorists and the many enemies of
00:12:09.940
civilization that have become entrenched in the Middle East. The political dimension is just one
00:12:14.340
part of this catastrophe. There's a deeper problem that we can't fix, even by firing Jake Sullivan and
00:12:20.180
ousting Joe Biden. There's the domestic cultural problem, which is far more ingrained than the political
00:12:26.320
one. Now, go on social media and take a look at the left's response to what's happening right now in
00:12:31.300
Israel. They're putting out statements that explicitly endorse Hamas's efforts to decolonize
00:12:36.460
the region by murdering and raping women and children. In Washington, D.C., activists are praising
00:12:41.640
Hamas along with Mao, who was responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people, but it's all in the
00:12:46.740
name of equity and justice and decolonization and all the rest of it. Listen.
00:12:52.620
A great revolutionary once said, though, now is it on?
00:12:57.720
If you have not investigated, you have no right to speak. And that goes out to all these liberal
00:13:03.080
entities, to the Miami Heat, to Bernie Sanders, to whoever else that is not recognizing the right
00:13:13.460
of the Palestinian people to be free. No investigation, no right to speak. If you don't know about the
00:13:27.460
She's an expert while she's reading stuff from her phone that she just looked up on Google.
00:13:31.040
If you don't know about this stuff that I just Googled, then you have no right to speak.
00:13:36.820
Now, scenes like this played out throughout this country and in Canada. So here's just a sampling
00:13:40.660
of the response from pro-Hamas activists in Florida, New York, Washington State, Montreal,
00:13:48.860
Less than 24 hours ago on the land, from the sea, and from the air, the people of the country
00:13:56.100
sending from the nation, and from the sea. Palestine, will be free. Palestine, will be free.
00:14:16.160
Now, what we have to remember is that these rallies took place
00:14:45.760
after everybody involved knew what actually happened in Israel.
00:14:49.860
All of these protesters knew exactly what they were protesting for.
00:14:55.080
They all saw the videos of, for example, a naked woman in the back of a pickup truck
00:15:00.640
whose body is mangled and brutalized being paraded as a trophy through the streets.
00:15:07.360
So they all saw that, and that's what they're celebrating.
00:15:11.720
I mean, that specifically is what they're celebrating.
00:15:17.280
It's tempting to point to changing demographics, and there's some truth to that theory.
00:15:21.840
The West has imported millions of people from the Third World, and in particular from Islamic
00:15:25.960
nations where Sharia law and extremism is overwhelmingly popular.
00:15:29.920
But it would be a mistake to blame this problem entirely on demographic changes, as substantial
00:15:35.020
as they've been, because the truth is that academics and journalists, many of them native
00:15:39.060
to the West or working for publications based in the West, have put out statements supporting
00:15:43.560
Hamas and their efforts to decolonize by murdering and raping women and children.
00:15:48.000
I mean, there's a write-up in the New York Times, ostensibly from their news division, and this
00:15:51.580
is how they portrayed what just happened in Israel over the weekend.
00:15:54.360
For some Gazans, Saturday morning's surprise Palestinian attack into southern Israel seemed
00:16:00.000
a justified response to a 16-year Israeli blockade.
00:16:03.500
Others worried that the coordinated attack would only add to Gaza's misery as the tiny
00:16:07.460
enclave braced for a large-scale response from Israel.
00:16:11.460
That's how the New York Times covered the slaughter of hundreds of people attending a music festival.
00:16:16.160
That's how they covered the execution of elderly women at a bus stop.
00:16:19.160
It's how they reported on the rapes and murders that were caught on camera, and it goes on.
00:16:24.160
In a viral tweet, Najma Sharif, who bills herself as a Somali-American writer who works for NBC
00:16:29.900
and other outlets, had this to say about the massacres in Israel this weekend, quote,
00:16:41.700
Now, you read something like that, it's tempting to dismiss that as the rantings of one unhinged
00:16:47.200
leftists, and that is indeed one unhinged leftist, but she's far from the only one.
00:16:53.400
Porn star Maya Khalifa has been hitting all the same notes.
00:16:56.460
She just reposted an image of Hamas terrorists shooting at police officers in Israel, writing,
00:17:03.020
She also appeared to justify the murder of civilians, writing, quote,
00:17:05.760
settlers are not civilians if they partake in hostilities.
00:17:08.480
In fact, according to the Rome statute, settlements are considered a war crime.
00:17:12.460
By the way, none of these leftist porn stars and mouth breathers who are salivating over
00:17:22.100
I mean, in Gaza, they don't take kindly to sexual deviance, promiscuous women, or homosexuals.
00:17:27.520
And at some level, all these leftists know that.
00:17:35.580
An editor at Harper's Magazine, which people supposedly used to take seriously, had this assessment
00:17:40.280
and try to follow this, quote, to search for an analog seems almost inappropriate to
00:17:45.500
Palestinians' world historical audacity to seize the components of self-determination
00:17:50.280
for themselves, if only because the idiom of liberation invents itself anew with each
00:17:55.820
instance that the yoke of bondage is sloughed off.
00:18:02.120
Well, it's just a word salad ultimately designed to justify the mass murder of civilians.
00:18:12.460
Part of that is because these people are constantly trying to impress you with their
00:18:18.260
If you can't communicate in a way that actually makes sense, then you're a moron.
00:18:24.300
But one of the most basic markers of intelligence is being able to communicate clearly.
00:18:30.020
And if you can't do that, and most of these academics can't, it's because you're dumb.
00:18:33.060
But you've memorized some buzzwords that you think make you sound smart.
00:18:38.100
That's part of the idea is just to try to impress us.
00:18:40.020
But the other idea is to use this indistinguishable language as a way of justifying things that
00:18:53.840
AOC, Rashid Tlaib, the rest of the squad, they've all put out comments that maybe in
00:19:00.420
some cases are a bit more circumspect in response to the attacks in Israel.
00:19:04.060
But it's still pretty clear where their allegiances lie.
00:19:07.860
They've suggested that Israel should avoid retaliating, which is obviously insane.
00:19:12.480
But it does raise the obvious question, which is, why does the American left so routinely
00:19:19.140
side with Hamas, given that Hamas would happily behead all of them?
00:19:27.460
The American left will always align itself with the less white side.
00:19:37.140
They see it as whiteness versus oppressed people of color.
00:19:41.460
Now, that is, to say the least, a convoluted and confused way of looking at this conflict.
00:19:53.920
And this is actually very important for us to realize because when they explicitly justify
00:20:01.180
violent, savage atrocities in the name of decolonization, they are establishing a precedent
00:20:07.940
that is not contained to the conflict in Israel.
00:20:11.400
Remember, they consider white Americans to be colonizers, too.
00:20:17.240
We are responsible for an occupation that has been going on for 500 years, they claim.
00:20:23.920
So when you hear them cheer for the butchery of the alleged colonizers overseas, you should
00:20:33.660
Remember that they would be more than happy to see us all meet the same fate.
00:20:56.480
Well, you know, if that's really the case, you need to be giving your dog rough greens.
00:21:01.020
Naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black, the founder of Rough Greens, is focused on improving the
00:21:06.000
Before I started feeding my dog rough greens, I had no idea that dog food is dead food.
00:21:11.060
Think about it, nutrition isn't brown, it's green.
00:21:13.400
Let rough greens bring your dog's food back to life.
00:21:16.080
Rough greens is a supplement that contains all the necessary vitamins, minerals, probiotics,
00:21:19.300
omega oils, digestive enzymes, and antioxidants that your dog needs.
00:21:23.200

00:21:57.840
We know what the big global story was over the weekend.
00:22:01.220
The kind of thing that if you're concerned about global affairs, you might pay attention to.
00:22:05.380
In fact, if you are, say, an organization specifically formed to concern itself with
00:22:13.080
global affairs, you might pay special attention to it.
00:22:16.580
If you're an organization like the United Nations, for example.
00:22:21.040
In fact, a subsidiary organization in the UN is called UN Women, and their charter is
00:22:26.500
supposedly to focus on gender equality and women's empowerment and things like that.
00:22:32.160
Well, as mentioned in the opening, we all saw the videos of women being kidnapped,
00:22:40.700
Isn't that something that UN women would really care about and have a lot to say about?
00:22:47.140
In fact, UN Women has not, believe it or not, said one single word about the kidnap,
00:22:55.140
murder, and rape of women that happened over the weekend.
00:23:10.060
And this is while everything's going on in the Middle East.
00:23:18.500
Let's uplift and honor every expression of love and identity.
00:23:23.920
So, while women, actual women, are being slaughtered, this is what UN Women is thinking about.
00:23:31.780
They're thinking about men with autogynephylic fetishes.
00:23:37.780
The most important thing in the world right now is defending men who have autogynephylic fetishes.
00:23:47.100
Now, never mind the fact that what they're claiming here is totally absurd and just laughably false and unintelligible.
00:23:59.840
Now, they are straight men with a bizarre fetish, but they are straight men.
00:24:09.940
In fact, if trans lesbians are actually lesbians, then the left's whole entire narrative about sexual orientation has been blown apart.
00:24:21.060
Because a man who is attracted to women and identifies as a man is straight.
00:24:26.800
But if that man becomes a lesbian when he identifies as a woman, that means his orientation has changed.
00:24:37.860
And this is the paradox that the left runs into.
00:24:40.360
It's one of the many paradoxes created by gender ideology because gender ideology is so fundamentally nonsensical.
00:24:47.560
If gender can be changed, then by definition, so can sexual orientation.
00:24:53.640
If a trans lesbian is a lesbian, then sexual orientation can be changed.
00:25:01.740
Now, they'll try to get around this by saying, well, the man who identifies as a woman was really a woman all along.
00:25:09.520
And so, really, the whole time he was a lesbian.
00:25:11.460
You know, even when he was dressed like a man and had a buzz cut and his name was Frank or something.
00:25:22.420
Now, but not anymore because they've made gender so fluid that it really is as simple as a man can see himself as a man, identify as a man.
00:25:33.360
Because whatever you identify as in the moment, that's what you are.
00:25:39.160
And so, if you wake up one day and say, I identify as a woman now, then you're a woman now.
00:25:43.980
Because yesterday, you identified as something else.
00:25:48.120
And because they've made it so fluid, that one excuse is gone.
00:25:52.600
And we're left with the reality that sexual orientation, even according to them, can be changed.
00:26:00.160
They're committed to the idea that sexual orientation is hardwired, is ingrained, is inherent.
00:26:05.620
Now, they believe that sexual orientation is somehow more deeply ingrained than sex itself, which makes no sense.
00:26:25.620
And I think focus on the fact that this tweet from the UN, UN Women, is not the only reason.
00:26:39.980
This is like reason number 10 million why the UN should not exist.
00:26:44.740
It is, at best, a totally useless organization.
00:26:48.500
At best, it's like some kind of vestigial organ that can and should be cut out.
00:26:58.640
If you're looking for the most generous view of the UN, best thing you could do is say that it's an organization that maybe had some kind of function at some point in the past, but no longer does.
00:27:19.000
It exists to push a globalist left-wing political agenda.
00:27:24.860
It exists to undermine national sovereignty and to undermine truth and virtue in our country and abroad across the entire globe.
00:27:36.420
And, of course, this worst interpretation is the correct one.
00:27:40.140
Which is why the UN should be dismantled and torn apart and burned to the ground metaphorically and turned into ash metaphorically.
00:27:50.200
And we should metaphorically dance around those ashes because this is an evil organization.
00:27:56.320
Okay, it's not just when you've got everything going on in the world and they tweet out trans lesbians are lesbians.
00:28:04.520
That's not just silly, frivolous, the dumb libs are focused on something that doesn't matter.
00:28:16.820
This is an evil organization that we should not have anything to do with in our country.
00:28:24.160
Late last week marked a significant occasion, at least an occasion that we're supposed to believe is significant.
00:28:30.140
It was the 25th anniversary of the death of Matthew Shepard.
00:28:33.880
And the media and many on the left published their tributes to Matthew Shepard, who they say, of course, and have been saying for two and a half decades now, was the victim of a barbaric anti-gay hate crime.
00:28:48.920
And so there are a lot of examples I could show you of the left talking about this and talking about Matthew Shepard and a lot of tweets, a lot of articles and video tributes and all the rest of it.
00:29:02.980
It says, in his 1968 speech at the National Cathedral, Martin Luther King Jr. proclaimed that the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice.
00:29:14.480
While that may be true, there are peaks and valleys along that path, especially when it comes to tolerance for and acceptance of those who don't fit into traditional roles and paradigms.
00:29:22.480
Consequently, reminders of past injustices and the need to keep fighting for equality and compassion remain ever relevant.
00:29:28.560
That's why Investigation Discovery is commemorating the 25th anniversary of the murder of Matthew Shepard with a heartfelt documentary about his life, his slaying, and the impact it had on a movement dedicated to achieving freedom for all.
00:29:40.260
Premiering October 9th, the Matthew Shepard story in American hate crime is a look back at a yesterday that feels long ago and yet also not so far away.
00:29:49.840
Its story is one that, in 1998, made national headlines and helped drive a campaign for hate crime legislation and, in the process, a wide range of LGBTQ plus rights.
00:29:59.400
That it took a horrific homicide to spur such changes continues to be a sad commentary about how civil liberties are acquired.
00:30:05.660
Sadder still, though, is this documentary's coda about the potential limits of progress and the consequent necessity of pushing back against the omnipresent forces of malicious bigotry.
00:30:17.040
Now, it goes on from there to tell the story of how Shepard was targeted for his sexuality and viciously murdered because of it.
00:30:25.540
In fact, we have a clip from that Investigation Discovery put out from their documentary, which is just someone reading a letter from Matthew Shepard to show what a great guy he was and how sad it all is.
00:30:52.160
Having trouble with getting into this swing of things.
00:31:15.540
So, we got the dramatic music in the background reading the letter.
00:31:19.720
Reading the letter from Matthew Shepard like he's some sort of great historical figure.
00:31:24.680
And this is all part of the same narrative, again, that Matthew Shepard was a martyr for gay rights and he was killed for being gay.
00:31:34.940
And the problem, of course, with that narrative is that it's a total, absolute lie.
00:31:41.600
And it still, somehow it still surprises me that there are people out there, lots of people, who don't know that this was a lie.
00:31:49.460
You know, I was tweeting about it yesterday, briefly, and I heard from a lot of people, of course, a lot of people on the left, who were, even they can't deny that it's a lie.
00:32:00.340
But instead, they just get mad at you for talking about it.
00:32:03.540
But even though there are many other people not on the left who said, well, I hadn't heard this before.
00:32:12.980
It's just, this just shows how the left's control of information, while it has been compromised in recent years because of, you know, the internet and social media and all that, it's, it's, they still largely control the spread of information.
00:32:29.220
And therefore, largely have the ability to decide, to determine our own history and how we view our own history and events in history, including events that were not all that long ago.
00:32:43.780
So, the narrative, in case you didn't know this, if you heard about Matthew Shepard, and everyone heard about Matthew Shepard.
00:32:51.300
And, you know, in my generation, I graduated high school in 2004, and Matthew Shepard murder was in, in, what was it, in 1998.
00:33:04.700
So, you know, I'm right in the generation where they really, they hit us hard.
00:33:09.180
They hit us very hard with the Matthew Shepard thing.
00:33:12.000
And I was told, well, I remember hearing about this in school.
00:33:15.560
And they would tell us about what a terrible hate crime it was.
00:33:18.160
And, of course, when I was a kid in school, I, I believed it.
00:33:27.360
Now, the only thing that's true is that he was murdered.
00:33:31.080
He's one of the thousands of murder victims that, that we've had in this country over the last 25 years.
00:33:37.340
But what we know now, and what we've known for a long time, and this, again, is not in dispute, is that he was not killed for being gay.
00:34:04.940
So, Matthew Shepard was a gay drug addict and drug dealer.
00:34:08.360
And he had, even had, had previous sexual encounters with at least one of his killers.
00:34:15.520
So, he was killed by a former gay lover because he was a drug dealer.
00:34:28.880
It's, it's, it's, it is, despite what the left says, it is not dangerous to be gay in this country.
00:34:38.260
At least you're not going to be, you're not going to be killed for it.
00:34:41.820
There are other dangers, health dangers and so on.
00:34:46.880
But there's, you're not going to be hunted down and killed for it.
00:34:51.320
Now, if you're a meth dealer, on the other hand, that is a very dangerous occupation.
00:34:55.940
Now, now you are in a world with people who, by definition, don't care about the law, are, are very often very violent people.
00:35:10.900
And so, Matthew Shepard is one of the many meth dealers and drug dealers who have been killed.
00:35:15.380
I mean, that's, now, is it, as I said when I talked about this on Twitter,
00:35:18.580
Again, it's, it's revealing that when you bring this, the left, they won't even, most of them won't deny what I'm saying.
00:35:34.280
Instead, they'll, you know, they'll just label you a homophobe.
00:35:37.880
Well, how dare you bring this up in the first place?
00:35:39.780
Or they'll try some, they'll, they'll try to, well, that doesn't mean the death isn't sad and shouldn't be remembered.
00:35:47.620
You know, every, every murder is sad in its own way, I suppose.
00:35:53.660
But first of all, I got to be honest with you, I don't spend a lot of time mourning the deaths of meth dealers.
00:36:04.180
I kind of feel like you get into that line of work then, and it, and ultimately it claims your life.
00:36:17.340
It's sad that somebody would get into dealing meth in the first place.
00:36:21.660
I wish that Matthew Shepard had lived a more productive life, and he was still alive to this day, but, but he's not.
00:36:29.360
But the point is, you know, the people that, that say, well, we should still mourn his death.
00:36:33.920
Are there any other drug dealers that died 25 years ago that you're mourning?
00:36:39.780
And there are drug dealers that died yesterday.
00:36:46.020
The only reason we know Matthew Shepard's name, only reason,
00:36:49.600
is because of the story that was made up about him.
00:36:53.880
If not for that story, nobody would remember his name.
00:36:59.000
If this story was never invented, and I came to you out of nowhere and said, hey, you know, 25 years ago,
00:37:06.780
this meth dealer was killed in a pretty brutal fashion by some of his meth-dealing buddies.
00:37:14.180
You'd look at me with, like, a blank expression.
00:37:16.460
You'd say, well, I mean, it's always sad when someone's killed, but I, what do you,
00:37:26.120
The only, again, the only reason anyone knows his name is because of the story that was made up,
00:37:32.440
which is why it is, any time his name is brought up, it is always relevant to point out, oh,
00:37:37.520
you know, the only reason you're talking about him, you know, the only reason, it's a, it is a lie.
00:37:42.280
And yet, in spite of these facts, the media still pushes Shepard as a martyr.
00:37:50.820
Now, it's true, if you, if you, uh, refute it and say, well, here's what actually happened,
00:37:55.600
they're not, most of them will not try to argue with you because they know they can't,
00:38:04.780
Anyone who's researched this case knows it's not true.
00:38:10.460
Number one, that the left, and neither of these are, uh, revelations really,
00:38:16.840
but the left remains committed to their false narratives to the end.
00:38:23.080
They will, they never let go of their false narratives.
00:38:26.000
They will, they will stay committed to them forever.
00:38:33.340
Um, this is the kind of consistency that they have.
00:38:37.140
They have, it's, it's, it's a bad consistency because they are consistently liars and they
00:38:50.340
And that is one of the reasons why the left has been successful, uh, in the culture war,
00:38:56.200
why not just successful, but it's why they, they have, it's why they own the culture.
00:39:00.120
The culture, even to this point is still theirs.
00:39:02.220
And we as conservatives are kind of, uh, you know, we are the, uh, sort of guerrilla fighters
00:39:10.360
in this culture war because we don't, we don't have power over any of the institutions.
00:39:17.360
And this is one of the ways that they achieved it by establishing their narrative, establishing
00:39:23.960
their story and sticking to it always, no matter what, at any cost.
00:39:32.500
So that's one thing we learned for the other thing is that, um, leftism, as I've said many
00:39:38.480
times is essentially a religion and it's a religion of self worship, which is another
00:39:45.340
way of saying that it's Satanism, you know, it's kind of a secular Satanism, um, and, uh,
00:39:55.580
a cult, maybe we would be a better word for it.
00:39:59.020
And any cult has its foundational myths and the leftism is the same way.
00:40:07.320
Um, and the problem with a foundational myth is that you can never really admit that it's
00:40:13.940
a myth because it lays at the foundation of everything else that you're saying and doing.
00:40:18.660
And if you admit that it's a myth and it destabilizes the whole structure.
00:40:25.420
And on the left, all of their foundational myths are based in victimhood.
00:40:33.840
They don't have anyone that they admire really for being triumphant and victorious.
00:40:47.940
And, and very often these are the martyrs that they invent are people.
00:40:52.340
It's not even like these are people who died fighting for a cause.
00:40:56.020
It's not like these are people who lived impressive lives, uh, and then were martyred.
00:41:00.960
No, it's, these are people who did nothing constructive with their lives.
00:41:06.580
In fact, we're, we're, we're in many cases were burdens on society, drug dealers, drug addicts,
00:41:15.180
And it's the manner of their death that the left finds useful.
00:41:20.820
Um, or rather I should say it's what the left can say.
00:41:24.420
It's the lie that the left can make up about the manner of the death that they find useful.
00:41:27.940
I mean, think about it, the, the, for the race hustlers on the left, you have the race hustlers
00:41:36.480
and the gender hustlers, uh, and on the race hustlers there right now, they're, they're number
00:41:43.980
one saint, the highest, you know, in the hierarchy in the saintly hierarchy is George Floyd.
00:41:51.120
And then for the gender hustlers and, you know, the, the, the, the gender and sexuality wing
00:42:01.860
And in one case you have a violent criminal drug addict.
00:42:04.220
In the other case you have a meth dealer junkie.
00:42:07.180
And these are their two most blessed, most revered saints.
00:42:10.840
And in both cases, they will look you in the face and just simply lie to you about how those
00:42:21.760
And if you dare correct them, they'll, um, recoil in horror because we are supposed to,
00:42:30.140
even if, what they tell you is that even if you realize that what they're saying is a lie,
00:42:36.640
You should have a hushed reverence because these people were killed after all.
00:42:43.700
And so that gives us the right to say whatever we want about them.
00:42:46.720
So if you, if you, uh, dispute their narrative, it is somehow, uh, you're, you're disrespecting
00:42:55.880
Now, I don't know about you, but I think, uh, when somebody dies, I mean, the first and
00:43:01.580
most basic way that we can respect them, whoever they are is by being honest about who they
00:43:09.760
You know, when you turn them into some sort of mascot, um, among many other things, uh, I
00:43:18.180
would say that that is, that's how you are degrading them and, uh, and their memory such
00:43:26.560
Steve Evenly Naked, this is his username, says, I don't care how boring your life is
00:43:38.300
Everybody should write that memoir, uh, their memoir.
00:43:41.060
It might just be the only part of yourself that outlives you.
00:43:43.820
Geez, imagine if boring Roman farmers had all written bad memoirs.
00:43:50.760
Um, I was giving, I don't even remember her name now.
00:43:52.680
What was it, Kerry Washington, uh, uh, that's a mediocre actress, giving her a hard time
00:43:57.800
for writing, uh, her memoir and pointing out how so often now memoirs are written by the
00:44:05.640
most boring, least interesting people who also happen to often be very bad writers.
00:44:11.600
And you're, you make an interesting counterpoint, but I would just say that, you know, you say
00:44:17.720
But I, I say this, in fact, this is why, whether you write a memoir or not, one of the reasons
00:44:23.680
why you're supposed to have a family and children, okay, your children, your descendants
00:44:32.740
Um, they, they are the part of yourself that outlives you.
00:44:36.720
You know, the desire to have something that outlives you is, that's a natural desire.
00:44:44.980
And, but, and then also your family, they are the ones who will tell your story.
00:44:51.380
It's like, there's the kind of, uh, oral tradition about you that gets passed down.
00:44:58.040
Just like you may hear stories that are told about your grandparents, if they're now gone
00:45:06.020
Um, now of course the, the issue with that is that, uh, if you don't live a good life,
00:45:11.460
if you're a bad person, and if you're bad to your family, neglectful of your family,
00:45:15.820
then the stories they tell about you are not going to be probably flattering ones.
00:45:20.660
But, um, another, another incentive to live a good life and be a decent person.
00:45:25.900
Observer Tim says, sleight of hand, black people aren't saying that their lives are worse than
00:45:31.880
They're saying that they are eight times worse off than the average white person today
00:45:35.680
because slavery did exist, which also explains their other sufferings.
00:45:40.260
Well, okay, but you stepped aside the point completely.
00:45:42.560
I mean, um, you step, you sidestepped the point rather completely.
00:45:45.520
In order to blame the financial disparity on slavery, you would have to know what the
00:45:49.780
financial disparity would look like if slavery never occurred.
00:45:55.080
And, and that's how you would know how much of that disparity you can blame on slavery,
00:46:00.240
And this is why I'm always returning to this point because it's sort of inescapable.
00:46:05.440
Blaming your misfortunes on some historical event from long ago is not only a waste of energy,
00:46:10.920
not only an exercise in futile self-pity, but also it's incoherent because it, it assumes
00:46:16.820
that you would be more fortunate today if those things had never happened.
00:46:20.500
But for reasons I've explained in great detail in the past, that assumption is probably not
00:46:28.140
Um, also, as I said, the disparity between black Americans and white Americans, uh, essentially
00:46:37.320
disappears, uh, if you are, you know, if you simply wait to have kids until you're married
00:46:51.800
What I'm saying is that if even, you know, 70% of black Americans were to, uh, wait till
00:47:01.900
they're married to have kids and then stay married when they have them, uh, that, that
00:47:06.040
disparity you're talking about would begin to disappear very, very quickly.
00:47:09.800
And it can disappear for you on an individual basis.
00:47:14.180
If you simply make that decision and anyone can do that, you know, whether or not your
00:47:18.260
ancestors were enslaved, there's no reason why the enslavement of your ancestors 150 years
00:47:22.680
ago would, would compel you by forces outside of your control somehow to have babies out of
00:47:32.700
Finally, uh, you asserted that there was no justification for abortion, but that is factually
00:47:39.980
If a woman's life is in danger while pregnant, in which case abortion is more than justifiable.
00:47:44.700
Well, I would say, first of all, directly killing a child, even to save the parent's life
00:47:52.020
Um, you know, prioritizing the life of a, even if we're not directly killing a child, in most
00:47:58.280
cases, we all kind of intuitively recognize that you don't prioritize the life of an adult
00:48:05.840
I mean, it's like even now this, again, this is not directly killing, but, uh, if there's
00:48:12.040
a, you know, a house is on fire and you run into the house and you see a little baby there
00:48:18.560
lying there and there's an adult and you can only rescue one, let's say.
00:48:22.360
Um, I think most people would rescue the baby and that's not because the adult's life has
00:48:29.000
no meaning or no value, um, but rather because we recognize that our first obligation is to
00:48:36.600
protect and preserve the lives of, of children, especially those who have no capacity to protect
00:48:43.900
And not only that, but we would expect the adult to tell you to take the child.
00:48:50.640
I mean, uh, imagine a baby is lying there in a burning house and the mother is also lying
00:48:59.000
there and her legs are broken or something and she can't leave and you run in and the
00:49:05.700
mother shouts to you and says, take me first, take me, get me, get me out of here.
00:49:14.780
Most of us have never been in a situation like that.
00:49:16.780
Um, and we recognize that, but, but even then we would, we would harshly, harshly judge
00:49:30.160
Because we, we realize that, you know, if you really love your child, what you should
00:49:35.560
be shouting is no, save my child, leave, leave me, come back for me if you have time, but
00:49:44.720
I mean, there was a case a few years ago, um, and many cases where, where the, the parent
00:49:49.340
does the right thing, does what any parent would do.
00:49:52.540
There was a case a few years ago of a mother who, uh, in a burning house and, you know, her
00:49:56.980
last act, uh, before, uh, she succumbed to the flames was to throw her, her child over
00:50:04.580
a window to, to, uh, people that were waiting on the ground to catch the child.
00:50:07.880
So her last act was to save her child and she chose to save her child.
00:50:11.960
She could have jumped out the window herself first and she didn't.
00:50:18.780
Um, but then when it comes to, to children in the womb, suddenly it gets flipped on its
00:50:24.540
But I don't think that's, I don't think that it should be.
00:50:29.820
But anyway, that's all even, that's an interesting discussion.
00:50:32.800
It's irrelevant because there's actually never a time when you actually need to directly
00:50:40.940
Um, you may need to end the pregnancy early in rare circumstances in order to save the
00:50:47.220
mother's life, which means delivering the child.
00:50:50.380
And these are, you know, those, those, uh, late term abortions.
00:50:54.440
What we hear from the left that when it comes to late term abortions, they say, well, late
00:50:59.420
And there are small percentage of cases and then they give you the percent and whatever
00:51:02.540
they say, the percentage, it still leaves like thousands of abortions, like thousands
00:51:06.120
of cases every year, even according to them that are late term.
00:51:09.080
But then what I'll tell you is that, well, all of those cases are to, are it's to save
00:51:15.720
And they expect you not to notice that, well, wait a second, if there's something happening
00:51:20.500
and this can happen in a pregnancy, especially later in a pregnancy, some sort of catastrophic
00:51:27.380
And if the woman remains pregnant, she will die.
00:51:31.820
Well, in that case, you, you can deliver the child.
00:51:37.120
And even if the, even if it's 22 weeks into pregnancy, there's a very, with the miracle
00:51:41.740
of modern medicines, a very good chance that child will still survive.
00:51:47.100
So yes, you can end the pregnancy by delivering the child.
00:51:49.980
Abortion, it adds an extra step where we are killing the child before delivering the
00:51:56.380
And that is certainly not necessary, um, for saving the mother's life.
00:52:05.120
It is a, a grotesque, gratuitous, just explicit act of the direct murder of a child, which again
00:52:16.720
Is there anything scarier than gender ideology infecting bedrock American brands and turning
00:52:22.480
Well, maybe a night in Vegas with Hunter Biden would be scarier, uh, get it.
00:52:27.280
But the truth is these companies hate your values.
00:52:31.040
Back in March, we launched Jeremy's chocolate and instantly sold hundreds of thousands of
00:52:36.800
We are now introducing our new bite-sized microaggression bars still in the same binary
00:53:03.520
Long time listeners of this show will know that it is a tradition on Columbus Day for
00:53:07.860
me to carve out a section of the show to talk about the holiday and why it deserves to be
00:53:11.580
celebrated, despite what the leftist crybabies and historical revisionists might say.
00:53:16.100
And I will continue with this tradition for as long as the holiday and the man it commemorates
00:53:20.000
remain under attack, which means that I will continue it indefinitely.
00:53:23.440
Now, if you hear Columbus acknowledged at all today in the media or by any political or
00:53:29.100
cultural figure of note, it would almost certainly be a condemnation.
00:53:33.000
You know, they will tell us that, uh, the same thing they've been telling us for many years,
00:53:36.660
that Columbus was a genocidal maniac whose arrival led to the alleged genocide of so-called
00:53:41.560
Native Americans or quote unquote indigenous people.
00:53:44.780
In the same breath, without a hint of irony, they will also decry what they describe as
00:53:49.100
overly simplistic portrayals of Columbus and his voyages.
00:53:52.160
Hoping you don't notice how no portrayal of Columbus is as absurdly and cartoonishly
00:53:57.320
simplistic as the one you get from these very same people.
00:54:01.600
Now, as mentioned, I have made the case many times why, uh, for why Columbus deserves to be
00:54:05.820
celebrated, deserved to have his federal holiday, his statues, his cities named after him.
00:54:12.480
Christopher Columbus was a very great man and one of the most consequential figures to
00:54:20.800
He quite easily had more of an impact than every single one of his modern critics combined
00:54:28.440
These are the people that we give holidays to or used to, the people who shape the world
00:54:33.220
and say whatever else you want about Columbus, he did more than almost any other single person
00:54:39.160
in history to shape the world we live in today.
00:54:43.180
Now, it's often said by idiots who claim to be intellectually nuanced that if Columbus did
00:54:49.320
achieve this world-shaping feat, he did it accidentally.
00:54:53.480
Now, even if that's true, it wouldn't change his significance or the significance of what he
00:55:02.720
In other words, he was looking for land he knew existed rather than looking for land he
00:55:07.520
didn't know existed, so could not have been looking for by definition.
00:55:10.560
But there was nothing accidental about his voyage.
00:55:14.500
You know, he didn't trip and fall and drift across the Atlantic.
00:55:18.040
Rather, he led a small fleet of ships over an unknown ocean without the use of any modern
00:55:22.840
navigational equipment, without even a map to guide the way.
00:55:26.580
And you would think that this would be a rather impressive thing to modern people who can't
00:55:32.240
manage to drive to the Starbucks three blocks away without the assistance of satellite navigation.
00:55:38.160
But that would require modern people to have humility and perspective, both of which are
00:55:42.560
Now, over the course of his four voyages, Columbus discovered many Caribbean islands and explored
00:55:49.540
The full scope of what he had discovered would not be fully understood until after he died.
00:55:54.420
But the fact remains that Columbus brought Western civilization across a vast and uncharted
00:55:59.920
and dangerous sea and into a previously unexplored and unknown hemisphere of the globe.
00:56:05.900
He forever changed the world, and he changed it in a way and to a degree matched by very
00:56:11.120
few other people who have ever lived on the planet.
00:56:13.200
And aside from Jesus Christ, exceeded by perhaps no one.
00:56:18.320
He did this through his courage and his daring and his brilliance and his vision, all things
00:56:24.200
worth admiring, and all virtues that Columbus possessed in far greater quantity than any of his
00:56:39.960
Welcome to almost any great man who has ever lived.
00:56:46.800
He executed both Spaniards and Indians under his rule.
00:56:51.060
He was, by all accounts, a pretty bad governor.
00:56:53.220
This was a common flaw of explorers of that era.
00:56:55.420
Many of them were brilliant on their ships, but incompetent or downright horrible on solid
00:57:00.200
Magellan, for example, made it three quarters of the way around the world.
00:57:02.780
Before getting himself killed in a needless conflict with the tribe in the Philippines.
00:57:07.440
You know, there was a certain type of man who was needed to navigate a fleet of ships across
00:57:13.420
And there was a different kind of man, oftentimes, who was needed to manage settlements.
00:57:17.280
Unfortunately, the latter type had no way of getting to the settlement except by hitching
00:57:22.460
And the former wasn't often willing to cede control of the land he had just gone through
00:57:29.840
Now, there's nothing wrong with acknowledging the flaws of men like Christopher Columbus.
00:57:34.860
Nobody is suggesting that we should honor them as perfect people or worship them as gods.
00:57:39.480
The point of the statues and the monuments and the holidays, etc., is to remember and celebrate
00:57:43.580
the indispensable role they played in establishing the civilization in which we all live now.
00:57:49.180
A civilization that just so happens to be the freest and most prosperous in the history
00:57:53.840
of the world, Columbus, through his navigational brilliance, boldness, courage, vision, and
00:57:59.020
determination, is one of the men we have to thank for that.
00:58:05.220
Now, some people might claim that Western civilization is nothing to be thankful for at all.
00:58:10.520
But I can't help but notice that those people still choose to live here, enjoying the comforts
00:58:15.140
and freedoms given to them by the very men whose monuments they deface and holidays they
00:58:20.760
They claim this is stolen land, yet they remain on it, basking in its luxuries.
00:58:29.040
The fact is that they would much prefer to live in the colonized version of this land
00:58:35.800
Most Indian tribes were about 5,000 to 6,000 years behind the more advanced civilizations on
00:58:43.080
So when those people, beginning with Columbus, came to the new world, they were going back
00:58:58.400
If those people on this side of the world were left to their own devices, by now they probably
00:59:09.420
And that is not a world that any supposed opponent of colonization would want to live in, no matter
00:59:16.580
Which brings us to the day that has come to replace Columbus Day.
00:59:19.920
And now you'll hear most people in the mainstream talk about Indigenous Peoples Day.
00:59:23.620
Joe Biden recognized Indigenous Peoples Day in a presidential proclamation for the first
00:59:29.560
In many corners of American society, it has entirely supplanted Columbus Day.
00:59:33.760
But Indigenous Peoples Day is a total farce and a disgrace and a joke for several reasons
00:59:48.540
It was a thing invented specifically to overshadow Columbus Day.
00:59:53.580
Leftists don't understand why this is a problem because everything they do is reactive in this
00:59:58.380
Their whole cultural agenda is designed to supplant, destroy, dismantle the old traditions
01:00:08.820
They just have a bunch of things they don't like and want to destroy for reasons they can
01:00:14.580
Columbus Day celebrates one of the greatest historical figures to ever live.
01:00:17.440
Indigenous Peoples Day is a political tactic meant to undermine that same historical figure.
01:00:22.400
So if you want a real holiday in order to celebrate Indigenous people, then get your own day.
01:00:29.520
Okay, try for once to come up with one idea that isn't designed to simply be the opposite
01:00:36.160
Think for yourselves for a change, you damned halfwit plagiarists.
01:00:41.560
Second, the underlying premise of the day is false.
01:00:45.160
You know, this is supposedly a day to acknowledge the people whose land was stolen by European
01:00:48.940
settlers, but the whole stolen land thing is preposterous.
01:00:54.600
You know, there were maybe as low as one or two million Indians living on the entire North
01:01:05.980
We don't know exactly how many people were here, but either way, that's not a lot of people.
01:01:10.980
And the point is that the vast, vast majority of the land was unoccupied, North America and
01:01:20.020
These were mostly untamed, unexplored, uninhabited wildernesses.
01:01:26.800
The smattering of tribes spread out across 9 million square miles in North America.
01:01:33.760
People these days talk as if the Europeans had no right to come here in the first place,
01:01:37.100
which is an interesting assertion from open borders advocates.
01:01:42.480
The tide of civilizational expansion and progress was not going to be held back forever.
01:01:47.380
And the idea that a ragtag collection of warring Stone Age tribes
01:01:51.640
somehow laid eternal claim to this entire hemisphere is just insane.
01:02:01.240
The land was destined to be conquered by more civilized and advanced people,
01:02:09.260
Third, the whole concept of indigenous people is arbitrary, if not totally nonsensical.
01:02:19.960
We should stop using indigenous and native to describe the group of people that it usually
01:02:30.300
How long does their lineage have to be present here?
01:02:33.720
Like, if I can trace my family back 100 years, is that not good enough?
01:02:41.420
The absurd reality is that if you are a white person living in the United States of America,
01:02:46.200
America, and your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower 400 years ago,
01:02:51.420
you still somehow do not count as either native or indigenous.
01:02:56.920
This is not your native land, even after four centuries.
01:03:02.300
Your family could have been here for 400 years building this society.
01:03:08.140
And somehow, even after all that time, this is not your native land, you're told.
01:03:18.040
If you are not indigenous to this place, the place where you were born, and your parents
01:03:22.220
were born, and your grandparents were born, and your grandparents' grandparents' grandparents
01:03:33.500
The cultural powers that be, they want you to consider yourself ancestrally homeless.
01:03:41.800
You are a usurper and an invader no matter where you go.
01:03:45.340
You have no native home no matter how long your family has lived here.
01:03:50.820
Now, nobody applies this standard to the so-called indigenous people.
01:03:55.940
I always hear that they were the people who originated here.
01:04:08.380
All of the so-called indigenous people, they all descend from people who came here at some
01:04:13.820
point in the past and fought over the land and killed each other brutally for centuries
01:04:21.140
to claim whatever slice of it they possessed before the white settlers arrived.
01:04:26.100
And then those settlers did the same thing that the so-called indigenous people did.
01:04:37.380
They built a life for themselves through work and toil and hardship and blood.
01:04:51.060
Yeah, we're supposed to live in a state of perpetual shame over this history?
01:05:13.780
I am proud of the men who built our civilization.
01:05:28.820
I celebrate the fact that they colonized this land.
01:05:35.320
Because what they did is they forged into an unknown wilderness
01:05:45.640
And through it, they earned the right to call this place home.
01:05:48.880
And for all of their descendants through the ages to do the same.
