00:00:00.000 You know, on the plus side, we are giving historians and anthropologists of the future
00:00:07.540 a lot to do. They're going to have a very interesting time of it as they discuss and
00:00:13.260 debate the question of when exactly did the once great American civilization of those ancient times
00:00:21.440 go insane? And why did it happen? And how? And I can only imagine a thousand years from now,
00:00:29.160 500 years from now, what conclusions they'll draw about that. As an American citizen myself
00:00:34.640 in the present day, actually bearing witness to the collapse of sanity and reason in real time,
00:00:41.360 just as we all are, I'm not sure that I can answer those questions. And I'm watching it happen.
00:00:46.540 But perhaps hindsight will lend a little bit of clarity for them. What I do know is that this
00:00:52.860 case we've been talking about this week, the case of James Younger, I think will be viewed as a,
00:00:57.740 in the future as a seminal moment in our collective plunge into madness. It may be seen as,
00:01:03.840 at least from a legal standpoint, the point of no return, the crossing of some sort of Rubicon.
00:01:12.320 Now, I want to talk a little more about this case today because if the mass media isn't going to
00:01:17.920 cover it, which they aren't, then that's all the more reason for me to continue to talk about it.
00:01:22.180 In fact, today I want to talk about both of the stories that the mass media has been ignoring
00:01:27.780 this week. And I've covered both of them already, but I want to continue those conversations.
00:01:32.860 But first, just to review, as we talk about this James Younger case,
00:01:36.800 if you didn't catch the show yesterday, just a quick review of what's going on. A man named
00:01:42.220 Jeff Younger has been locked in this bitter court battle with his ex-wife, Ann Georgilis.
00:01:46.320 Despite being a medical professional herself, a pediatrician of all things, God help us,
00:01:53.200 she, and presumably therefore someone who understands basic facts about human biology
00:01:57.820 and child psychology, Georgilis got it into her apparently deranged head that her son James
00:02:03.960 is really a girl named Luna. And there's an interesting fact about that name. I'll get to
00:02:08.940 it in a little bit. The factors that convince Georgilis that her son is really her daughter
00:02:14.420 include, but are not limited to, his affinity for the movie Frozen and his request to get
00:02:21.700 a girl toy from McDonald's. She also says that he started expressing an interest in wearing
00:02:27.560 girls' clothing. But Jeff Younger has explained in multiple interviews that if James, the son,
00:02:34.580 ever had any desire or does have any desire to wear a girl clothing sometimes, it's only because
00:02:40.320 his mother started putting him in dresses and painting his nails and dressing him up essentially
00:02:44.780 like a drag queen when he was three years old. Now, Jeff also claims that other methods of
00:02:50.900 manipulation were used, some pretty insidious methods according to him, including he says,
00:02:56.260 for example, when the child was three years old, he would be locked in his room by his mother
00:03:01.540 in timeout and told that the monsters only eat little boys. Jeff also speculates that Georgilis
00:03:07.840 would withhold affection from the child unless he was wearing girl clothes, which is another way of
00:03:14.360 manipulating and getting James to, quote, want to dress in girl clothes. So the court case revolved
00:03:20.780 around Jeff's efforts to rescue his sons, James and his twin brother. There's another boy involved in
00:03:27.000 this from the abuse of this sick and twisted woman. However, the decision was passed down yesterday,
00:03:33.300 as we talked about the court ruled against the father, virtually all control of the child and
00:03:39.180 all decisions were handed over to the mother. Jeff brought this case trying to get sole custody of
00:03:50.600 the kids so that he could prevent this transitioning into a girl that is in the process of happening right
00:03:56.940 now. So the jury looked at it and they said, yeah, you know what? We are going to give sole custody to
00:04:03.780 somebody, but not you. We're going to give it to the mom so that the kid can become a girl. And now
00:04:11.640 she is free to continue the, quote, social transition of James into a girl, a process that is well underway
00:04:17.820 already as he goes by Luna and, and wears a girl clothing and poses as a girl at school and so on.
00:04:24.800 And eventually she can, and presumably will start James on drugs to chemically castrate him.
00:04:30.580 In fact, she, she did say in court that now she was very careful not to say that, yeah, we're
00:04:38.060 definitely going to do this right away because she knows how that sounds. It sounds grotesque
00:04:44.660 and barbaric, which it is, but she did indicate that sure in the future, that is something that
00:04:51.760 we will explore that could happen in the future. And I would say, it seems pretty clear to me that
00:04:56.660 if she has sole custody of the kid, it's going to happen. That's the direction that this is headed.
00:05:01.300 You start the social, the social transition means you're dressing them as a girl. You're
00:05:05.440 pretending as a girl, you're calling them a girl. You're in other words, is another word for
00:05:10.200 brainwashing, uh, conditioning. You might better call it social conditioning rather than social
00:05:17.860 transitioning. And then once you've done that, the next step in the process is you start doing
00:05:24.500 the drugs, puberty blockers, and then you give them the hormone drugs, the estrogen and so on.
00:05:30.300 All right. Um, now it should be noted that, and this has been a point of contention in the case that
00:05:36.760 Jeff, the father says that when he is with the boy, he, the boy expresses no interest in being
00:05:42.680 a girl, doesn't want to wear a girl clothing or anything. He refuses to wear a girl clothes.
00:05:47.640 That's, that's what he says. The mother claims the opposite and says that, no, no, no, no. When,
00:05:52.380 when Luna, uh, comes back to me, she quote unquote is, is relieved to return to her quote unquote
00:06:02.200 identity as a girl. Now, I think both claims are probably true. In a sense, the poor boy realizes
00:06:08.700 that it pleases his mother for him to be Luna. And so he wants to play that role for her.
00:06:16.640 And anyway, in any case, the question of how he really identifies is irrelevant. The point is that
00:06:22.120 James is a boy, plain and simple, whatever confusion he is suffering from confusion that has
00:06:28.960 been painstakingly planted in his head by his mother, his mother, who, in my opinion, should go
00:06:35.800 to prison just as every adult that is involved in this kind of thing, including the doctors and
00:06:42.020 everybody else who is involved in this sort of abusive children should all go to prison. And they
00:06:47.480 would in a sane world, but we don't live in a sane world, but that confusion could be easily alleviated.
00:06:53.040 Um, at most through counseling and therapy, you probably wouldn't even need that.
00:07:01.040 When this child allegedly first started claiming he was a girl at three years old,
00:07:05.820 which is when all this started, all you would have had to do is say, oh, no, no, you're not a girl.
00:07:13.560 You're a boy. And you know something in a week, he'd be over it. You know, it's a, in a week,
00:07:19.960 he'd be past that phase if you responded that way. But if you are a maniac and a three-year-old
00:07:29.400 comes to you and says, I'm a girl and you go, well, well, oh my goodness, he must be a,
00:07:35.160 she must be a girl then says he's a girl. It must be a girl. If you respond that way,
00:07:43.600 what a coincidence, the child is going to persist in that delusion. And they're going to become more
00:07:50.400 and more confused as time goes on. Um, now the jury has decided, as I said, to give Georgia
00:07:59.540 list full custody. We still don't have a full verdict from the judge though. There are many
00:08:02.880 related issues to be ruled on. And I believe that verdict is going to, she's going to, that decision
00:08:08.780 will be made, will be announced tomorrow. There's still, I think there's still maybe some hope.
00:08:15.140 Um, hopefully the outcry from the sane and rational and decent people of America,
00:08:19.280 an outcry that has really been ramped up this week. Thankfully, maybe that will have some effect.
00:08:25.640 Maybe it will have some influence and it might help the judge to see the light on this issue.
00:08:29.320 I'm honestly, I'm, I'm not very hopeful about that. I doubt that that will be the result,
00:08:34.060 but we can, we can always pray and hope and continue to raise awareness about this issue for
00:08:38.880 the next day before the final decision is made. What I did want to do, I wanted to answer a few
00:08:43.220 objections I've heard from people about how people like myself are talking about this case.
00:08:47.940 There are three main objections from what I can tell. Um, the first is easy to deal with.
00:08:56.320 I've got several emails saying that, um, I'm giving a one-sided version of the case
00:09:02.980 when actually the father is, is far from perfect himself. And what is then brought up our court
00:09:10.340 documents showing that one, the father was accused of lying about his income and his work history
00:09:17.240 to his wife before they got married. And two, that, uh, the father was accused of assault.
00:09:23.660 Now, as for the first, the father, Jeff has an explanation for what the wife and says are lies
00:09:32.260 he told before they got married. I don't know who's right and who's wrong, or if it's something
00:09:36.880 in the middle, usually with these things, it is regardless though, who gives a damn? None of this
00:09:42.520 has any bearing on the case whatsoever. And none of it makes him an unfit father or justifies him losing
00:09:47.540 custody. And certainly none of it means that his son is really a girl. And that's the main point
00:09:56.120 here. Now you might say, well, it makes him unreliable. So you can't take his version of
00:10:00.320 events at face value. My answer to that is we don't need to, you don't need to take anyone's
00:10:06.520 version of events at face value. The basic facts are not in dispute. James is a biological boy. He is
00:10:11.960 seven. And for the last several years, at least his mother has been claiming that he's a girl and his
00:10:16.540 mother now wants to transition him into a girl. That's not being disputed by anybody. Everyone
00:10:21.560 agrees on that. And that's all we need to know. We don't need to know anything else.
00:10:26.740 We do know a lot more, which only vindicates the father, in my opinion, but we don't really even
00:10:31.920 need to know any of that. These basic facts tell you basically everything you know. And then as for
00:10:38.520 the alleged assault, Jeff apparently was accused of assaulting his wife in late 2017. This is well after
00:10:45.020 the marriage ended, and this is in the midst of all this stuff with his wife trying to turn the kid
00:10:50.580 into a girl. He was acquitted of the assault. So there's no reason to say anything else about that. But
00:10:56.180 again, that accusation, he was acquitted of it. That has no bearing on this whatsoever.
00:11:02.040 Now, then there's the third point. Defenders of the mom in this case will insist, once they get
00:11:10.800 past trying to discredit the father with accusations that are certainly far from confirmed and I think
00:11:19.260 have largely been debunked, but are also completely irrelevant to this case, defenders of the mom will
00:11:26.800 next go to saying, well, no, the mom is right. She's not forcing James to be a girl because he
00:11:36.020 really is a girl. And we know that he's really a girl because he really does want to wear girl clothes
00:11:41.440 and he really does want to identify as a girl and so on. Now, let me read a thread, just to give you
00:11:46.960 an example of this line of argumentation. I want to read a thread to you from a guy named Barry Deutsch
00:11:54.440 on Twitter as he makes this case and provides whatever evidence he can to show that, no, the
00:12:01.340 mother is actually right. And there is, as he puts it, there's a panic on the right about this and the
00:12:07.000 panic is completely off base. So let me give you, this is, this is, this is the attempt to vindicate
00:12:12.020 the mother. Okay. It says a thread on the save James Younger panic on the right. They're claiming
00:12:17.640 that James Younger, as they insist on calling Luna, wants to be a boy and her evil mother is forcing
00:12:23.180 her to identify as a girl and wear a girl clothing. That's not what a CPS investigation
00:12:27.640 found. What I'm posting here are screenshots of the CPS investigators testimony at trial
00:12:33.100 with no parent present. Luna says she's a girl and denies that anyone's making her be a girl.
00:12:39.940 She also says she's afraid of her dad because he won't let her wear a girl clothes. That's why
00:12:45.880 quote unquote, she is afraid not because there's any abuse or anything going on, but according to this
00:12:51.860 claim, it's because the boy wants to wear a girl clothes and the dad won't let him.
00:12:58.220 Continues. The CPS investigator also interviewed Luna's teacher. Luna's teacher confirmed what Luna
00:13:03.120 says. Luna identifies as a girl and the teacher doesn't believe anyone's pressuring Luna to do that.
00:13:08.340 The CPS investigator also interviewed Luna's twin brother, Luke. Actually, the twin's brother's name
00:13:14.000 is Jude, not Luke. Jude confirms Luna's story. Luna has always identified as a girl. Their dad forces
00:13:22.540 Luna to dress as a boy, which makes Luna sad. In short, the CPS investigator found absolutely no
00:13:28.480 evidence that Luna's mom is forcing Luna to wear girl clothes or to use the name Luna. But the CPS,
00:13:33.780 and we'll get to that name thing in a second, as I said, because it's very, it's actually, there's,
00:13:38.060 there's something very, there's a very important detail about this name that I'm going to get to.
00:13:41.660 The CPS investigator found evidence, uh, Luna's dad is forcing her to wear boy clothes. You can read
00:13:48.700 the transcript. Um, okay. That's, that's basically it. So there's, there are all the facts laid out
00:13:58.180 that are supposed to vindicate the mother. This is the best anyone can do. Essentially, the argument is
00:14:05.000 that what the mother is doing is not abuse and the jury's decision is not wrong.
00:14:10.220 And all of this is perfectly fine because the boy actually is a girl. Do you see how insane this is?
00:14:19.180 I hope you do. He's not a girl. He's just simply not factually, objectively, scientifically,
00:14:26.740 he is not a girl. So to dress him like one, to claim he is one, to have him live as one,
00:14:35.220 to facilitate his transition into one is crazy, is abusive, is deranged, is evil.
00:14:46.800 I don't give a damn whether the seven-year-old boy really says he wants to wear dresses or not.
00:14:57.060 It's clear from court documents and from all reports that he sometimes says he wants to,
00:15:01.660 and sometimes says he doesn't. He's confused. Why is he confused? Because he's a child.
00:15:08.900 And because his mother has been claiming he's a girl since he was three. Of course he's confused.
00:15:16.800 Of course he's going to say he wants to wear dresses and so on. All of that is irrelevant.
00:15:21.800 He's a child who doesn't know what's going on. And as I will point out, for the 40 millionth time,
00:15:29.860 he doesn't know what a girl is. He literally doesn't know what he's saying.
00:15:37.060 He can't possibly identify as a girl because he doesn't know what that is. You can't identify as
00:15:41.520 something when you don't know what it is. This all started when he was three years old. Again,
00:15:45.980 that's not under dispute. You heard from the brother saying, oh, he's always identified as a
00:15:51.700 girl. Well, what the brother means is, for as long as I can remember, this has been going on.
00:15:59.520 Which makes sense because generally you start forming memories when you're three years old.
00:16:03.180 This goes back to when he was three.
00:16:04.580 And the mother says, oh, he first started saying he was a girl when he was three.
00:16:11.200 Three. Three years old, you lunatic. Three years old. Do you know what a three-year-old knows about
00:16:19.140 being a girl? Nothing. Nothing. Not a single thing. Nothing. Now, even if a three-year-old did know
00:16:30.000 something about being a girl, the biological reality would still remain. So that even if a
00:16:35.440 child that young did actually have a substantive understanding of biological sex so as to make this
00:16:42.220 choice, it still wouldn't matter because you can't choose your sex. It's impossible. But this is
00:16:48.660 doubly insane because a child at three years old has no clue what that means. I have a three-year-old.
00:16:58.500 Okay? And I've had two other three-year-olds who are now six. It's just, if you've ever spent any
00:17:07.680 time around a three-year-old, particularly if you've ever been a parent of a three-year-old,
00:17:11.900 you know this. These kids don't know anything.
00:17:16.000 So a three-year-old says, I'm a girl. All you have to follow up with is, what's that? What do you
00:17:27.900 mean? They don't mean anything. At most, what they mean is, I like pretty pink things.
00:17:36.420 Great. No problem. Three-year-olds can like pretty pink things. Nothing wrong with that.
00:17:43.860 The suggestion that that actually means that this boy at three years old is a girl and has somehow
00:17:52.620 mystically recognized this inner truth of this girl that is magically trapped inside the shell of
00:17:59.680 their boy body. You have educated people who think this way.
00:18:09.300 Now, I mentioned the thing about the name. Here's an interesting tidbit from the Texan.
00:18:17.760 And this is a publication down in Texas where this is happening. They've been on top of this case.
00:18:22.920 A lot of great information. When James first started
00:18:27.100 identifying as a girl, do you know what name he wanted
00:18:30.880 for himself? He goes by Luna now, according to the mom.
00:18:35.000 But it wasn't Luna originally. You know what it was?
00:18:39.500 The name was Starfire.
00:18:41.860 That's the name he wanted. I actually think this is
00:18:45.860 maybe one of the most important facts that came out in this case.
00:18:49.240 He wanted to be called Starfire. And any parents of children might know that Starfire is a cartoon
00:18:56.980 character from the show Teen Titans Go. My kids don't watch that show, so I don't know.
00:19:05.700 Okay. He wanted his name to be Starfire, cartoon character from a cartoon show.
00:19:12.400 What does that tell you?
00:19:13.520 It tells you that James was literally identifying as a cartoon character
00:19:20.360 because he's a child.
00:19:24.200 My sons have identified as many fictional characters
00:19:27.500 where they really, in some sense, in some way,
00:19:33.280 believe that they are that character.
00:19:35.900 My, I know it's a, you hear this as a classic response to all this madness
00:19:40.100 when someone says, oh, my son identifies as a dinosaur.
00:19:43.120 I guess I should send him to Jurassic Park.
00:19:46.500 And that might be a cliched response at this point,
00:19:50.020 but it's a cliche for a reason. It's true.
00:19:54.800 My son, my three-year-old son,
00:19:56.880 also thinks that he's a, he thinks that he's Rexy,
00:19:59.640 a T-Rex.
00:20:01.580 Now, what does that mean?
00:20:03.380 Well, let's really think about this for a second.
00:20:04.940 When my three-year-old son goes around saying he's a T-Rex,
00:20:08.880 is he joking?
00:20:10.860 No, he's not joking.
00:20:12.260 Three-year-olds don't know how to joke.
00:20:14.180 Three-year-olds have no concept of humor.
00:20:16.120 They don't tell jokes.
00:20:18.420 To have a concept of humor,
00:20:19.780 you need a concept of irony in these things,
00:20:21.540 and three-year-olds are not sophisticated enough for that.
00:20:24.340 So he's not joking.
00:20:26.380 Is he lying?
00:20:28.000 No, he's not lying.
00:20:29.120 Three-year-olds can't lie either.
00:20:31.060 Three-year-olds are incapable of telling a real lie.
00:20:33.440 Now, they might say things that aren't true,
00:20:36.480 but they're not capable of lying
00:20:38.800 because they don't understand the difference
00:20:41.920 between truth and falsehood,
00:20:45.680 between reality and fantasy.
00:20:49.000 So when my three-year-old says that he's a T-Rex,
00:20:53.260 he really does think,
00:20:55.020 at some level,
00:20:56.140 he really believes that he's a T-Rex.
00:20:58.660 Now, if my three-year-old were 30 years old
00:21:03.800 and saying that and believing it,
00:21:05.240 then it'd be a sign that he's mentally ill.
00:21:07.780 No matter what age he is,
00:21:09.160 it could never be a sign
00:21:10.280 that he is really a T-Rex trapped inside a human body.
00:21:13.700 We can be pretty confident of that.
00:21:15.800 If he was older,
00:21:16.860 then we would say,
00:21:17.760 now we've got a mental disorder on our hands of some kind.
00:21:20.060 Let's get him some counseling.
00:21:20.940 But at three years old,
00:21:25.320 it's just cute.
00:21:27.520 It's funny.
00:21:29.120 You play along with it a little bit.
00:21:31.100 You have fun.
00:21:32.000 You play dinosaurs.
00:21:32.920 I'll chase my son around the house.
00:21:34.420 He plays the dinosaur.
00:21:35.340 He's chasing me.
00:21:35.960 I'm chasing him
00:21:36.620 because he's three.
00:21:38.520 So, when you've got a human being
00:21:45.780 with the kind of psychology
00:21:48.980 where they can really be convinced at some level
00:21:53.480 that they are a dinosaur
00:21:55.160 or a superhero
00:21:56.820 or a dog
00:21:59.760 or a lion
00:22:00.520 or a dragon
00:22:01.400 or anything,
00:22:02.260 and my kids have been all of those things
00:22:03.900 sometimes in the same day.
00:22:05.640 When you've got a person
00:22:08.740 with that kind of psychology as a child,
00:22:11.820 how could you possibly take them seriously
00:22:16.180 when they say that they're the opposite gender?
00:22:19.660 It's the exact same kind of thing.
00:22:22.840 They're not identifying some internal truth.
00:22:26.200 It's just a fantasy.
00:22:27.680 It's just a kid being a kid
00:22:30.360 and not understanding
00:22:31.560 what is real and what isn't.
00:22:33.640 So, kids, again,
00:22:37.600 literally do not know the difference
00:22:40.660 between reality and fiction.
00:22:44.780 There are a lot of adults these days
00:22:46.380 who don't know it either,
00:22:47.260 but they don't have an excuse.
00:22:48.400 A kid at three years old doesn't know.
00:22:52.240 So, when a three-year-old thinks
00:22:55.300 that Spider-Man is really out there,
00:22:58.820 not just out there,
00:22:59.700 but when a three-year-old watches TV
00:23:01.820 and sees a cartoon,
00:23:03.320 they really think that that cartoon is real.
00:23:06.380 Now, how could they possibly think that?
00:23:07.720 It's a cartoon in a little box.
00:23:10.120 What do they think?
00:23:11.380 Well, I'm not even sure
00:23:12.860 because I can't remember
00:23:14.320 being three years old enough
00:23:15.440 to understand what they're really thinking
00:23:18.180 in their head,
00:23:18.480 but they do think.
00:23:19.420 You know, if you ask a three-year-old,
00:23:23.100 does Bugs Bunny exist?
00:23:24.880 Is Bugs Bunny real?
00:23:26.660 They're going to say yes.
00:23:29.200 And if you then,
00:23:30.340 if you really wanted to be a jerk
00:23:31.920 and spoil their fantasy,
00:23:34.020 and you said,
00:23:34.880 no, Bugs Bunny isn't real,
00:23:35.880 he's fake.
00:23:36.900 Well, you couldn't spoil the fantasy
00:23:38.500 because that wouldn't mean anything to them.
00:23:41.140 They would say,
00:23:41.900 what does that mean?
00:23:43.320 The concept of something not being real
00:23:48.180 means nothing
00:23:49.080 to a child at that age,
00:23:51.880 which is why
00:23:54.120 they are not empowered
00:23:56.400 to make important decisions for themselves.
00:23:58.940 It's why, in fact,
00:23:59.920 they're not really empowered
00:24:00.620 to make any decisions for themselves.
00:24:03.660 And it's why their declarations
00:24:06.440 about their own self-identity
00:24:08.340 are meaningless,
00:24:10.460 completely meaningless.
00:24:11.980 Except as a fun little game
00:24:15.580 that maybe you play along with,
00:24:18.520 and if it gets too out of hand
00:24:19.720 and they start taking it too seriously,
00:24:21.320 then maybe you stop playing along with it.
00:24:29.080 One last,
00:24:29.920 I actually,
00:24:30.620 one last point about this quickly,
00:24:32.040 that on this name thing,
00:24:35.680 so the kid wanted to be Starfire.
00:24:37.420 The mom said,
00:24:38.220 no, let's pick something else.
00:24:40.260 And they settled on Luna.
00:24:41.980 It's interesting
00:24:43.060 that all of these
00:24:44.800 painfully progressive parents
00:24:46.480 who let their kids
00:24:49.220 choose their own gender,
00:24:50.980 none of them
00:24:52.340 let the kid choose their own name.
00:24:55.520 And I know that's the case
00:24:57.280 because they always settle
00:24:58.380 on some trendy,
00:25:00.580 gender-neutral name.
00:25:02.900 You think the kid came up with that?
00:25:05.320 You think the kid came up with Luna
00:25:07.120 or Jazz
00:25:08.200 or Sky?
00:25:09.880 You think the kid went on Google
00:25:12.020 to look up?
00:25:12.820 No.
00:25:14.980 If you say to a three-year-old,
00:25:16.560 pick any name you want,
00:25:18.420 they're going to end up with Starfire
00:25:20.700 or T-Rex
00:25:21.900 or Spider-Man
00:25:22.620 or Wonder Woman
00:25:23.500 or something like that.
00:25:26.480 So that's how you know.
00:25:27.940 You know,
00:25:28.320 you got these trans,
00:25:29.300 these quote,
00:25:29.840 transgender kids running around.
00:25:31.160 None of them are named Wonder Woman.
00:25:32.860 None of them
00:25:33.340 are legally named Wonder Woman.
00:25:34.980 Why is that?
00:25:36.840 Because the parents choose the name.
00:25:38.980 Why do the parents choose the name?
00:25:41.340 Because the parents know
00:25:42.620 even though a name
00:25:43.680 really is a social construct,
00:25:45.640 really is a cultural thing,
00:25:47.940 really is arbitrary,
00:25:49.120 really can be anything
00:25:50.080 you want it to be,
00:25:51.040 they choose the name
00:25:51.880 because the parents realize
00:25:52.840 that a name is an important decision
00:25:54.180 that a kid is not mature enough to make
00:25:55.760 and that a kid will think
00:25:57.260 that a certain name is cool
00:25:58.240 when he's three
00:25:58.880 but won't think it's cool anymore
00:26:00.420 when he's 30
00:26:01.040 so they don't want to curse the kid
00:26:02.500 with a name when he's 30
00:26:03.780 that he chose when he was three.
00:26:07.540 Hmm.
00:26:09.180 Yes.
00:26:10.320 Now take that logic
00:26:11.720 and apply it to gender
00:26:13.640 and maybe now you start to understand.
00:26:17.640 All right.
00:26:19.520 So on Monday,
00:26:20.340 I told you about the case
00:26:21.120 of Democratic Congresswoman Katie Hill.
00:26:23.300 A report in Red State
00:26:24.540 said that Hill
00:26:25.280 allegedly had a sexual relationship
00:26:28.120 with a 22-year-old female staffer
00:26:31.740 and also an affair
00:26:33.660 with another member
00:26:34.560 of her staff
00:26:36.600 though this one was a man.
00:26:38.060 The media has showed
00:26:39.000 no interest in this case whatsoever
00:26:40.500 because she's a woman mainly
00:26:42.360 and as I have pointed out
00:26:43.960 the fact that she's a Democrat
00:26:46.280 obviously helps her
00:26:47.500 and if she was a Republican
00:26:49.460 probably they'd be more likely
00:26:50.680 to report on it.
00:26:52.640 I mean they'd certainly be more likely
00:26:53.880 to report on it of course
00:26:54.740 but the main thing
00:26:57.080 that gets her off the hook
00:26:58.020 for this is that she's a woman
00:26:59.360 and women
00:27:00.720 when it comes to sexual indiscretions
00:27:02.400 are just not held
00:27:04.360 to the same standard
00:27:05.200 and accusations
00:27:07.020 against women
00:27:08.060 of sexually inappropriate behavior
00:27:10.760 just are not taken seriously
00:27:12.320 by almost anybody
00:27:13.280 because there seems to be
00:27:15.000 this general attitude of
00:27:16.300 well if a woman does it
00:27:17.460 it's not as bad.
00:27:18.760 Nobody will come out
00:27:19.460 and say that
00:27:20.120 but I gave the example
00:27:22.880 when you have for example
00:27:24.400 all these teachers
00:27:25.460 these female teachers
00:27:26.400 who are having sex
00:27:28.080 with 13 year old boys
00:27:29.160 in their class
00:27:29.800 the attitude of almost everybody
00:27:33.300 seems to be
00:27:34.000 that's not quite as bad
00:27:35.160 because it's a woman.
00:27:36.520 Again nobody will say it
00:27:37.700 no one will say that
00:27:38.520 but that's apparently
00:27:39.720 how almost everyone feels about it
00:27:41.540 because that's why
00:27:42.660 there's very little outrage
00:27:43.820 about these cases
00:27:44.520 and usually what anyone does
00:27:45.640 they just crack jokes about it.
00:27:47.760 In fact
00:27:47.900 oftentimes the media
00:27:51.800 if the media does report
00:27:53.080 and the media will report
00:27:54.380 on the cases of teachers
00:27:55.540 and students
00:27:56.340 because that's salacious
00:27:57.340 and it gets clicked
00:27:58.620 so they can't help
00:27:59.520 but report on it
00:28:00.620 but when they do
00:28:01.780 very often
00:28:02.640 what they'll call it
00:28:04.260 in the headline
00:28:04.940 they'll say something like
00:28:06.700 with this exact phrase
00:28:07.700 it'll be
00:28:08.900 teacher
00:28:11.120 teacher caught in
00:28:12.760 sex romp
00:28:13.960 with 13 year old student
00:28:16.460 that phrase sex romp
00:28:18.140 that exact phrase
00:28:19.240 has often been used
00:28:21.180 in headlines
00:28:21.720 by the media
00:28:22.280 to describe
00:28:22.880 the sexual abuse
00:28:24.380 of adult females
00:28:26.400 or by adult females
00:28:28.840 of male children.
00:28:31.500 You're never going to see
00:28:32.820 the phrase sex romp
00:28:34.160 used to describe
00:28:36.140 abuse
00:28:37.520 when the genders are flipped.
00:28:39.300 Anyway
00:28:39.560 in this case
00:28:41.380 there are all kinds of
00:28:42.700 now there's no minors involved
00:28:44.200 okay
00:28:44.540 there are all kinds of ethical
00:28:46.180 and potentially legal
00:28:47.060 issues here
00:28:47.600 related to her having sex
00:28:48.860 with people
00:28:50.240 who are on her payroll
00:28:51.360 paying her sex partners
00:28:53.240 with campaign funds
00:28:54.540 and all of the ethical issues
00:28:56.440 wrapped up in a person
00:28:57.420 in a position of power
00:28:58.440 a person in Congress
00:28:59.520 getting sexually involved
00:29:00.560 with a young staffer
00:29:01.520 just out of college.
00:29:03.160 There are also pictures
00:29:04.340 that are floating around
00:29:05.760 out there
00:29:06.000 one picture is
00:29:06.860 Katie Hill
00:29:07.980 appears to be
00:29:10.800 Katie Hill
00:29:11.560 nude
00:29:12.560 and brushing the hair
00:29:14.400 of what appears
00:29:15.580 to be her young staffer
00:29:16.640 although the face
00:29:17.760 is blurred out
00:29:18.400 of the staffer.
00:29:20.180 Now we all know
00:29:21.580 if that was
00:29:23.640 a picture
00:29:25.380 of a male congressman
00:29:27.800 naked
00:29:29.120 and brushing the hair
00:29:30.880 of some 22 year old staffer
00:29:32.680 that would be
00:29:34.300 headline news everywhere
00:29:35.480 huge controversy
00:29:36.840 they would be holding
00:29:37.920 a press conference
00:29:38.660 they would have already
00:29:39.300 resigned by now
00:29:40.300 in disgrace.
00:29:42.540 Katie Hill does it
00:29:43.640 and nobody cares
00:29:44.780 media doesn't talk about it.
00:29:47.320 There's more
00:29:48.040 more information
00:29:49.240 though now
00:29:49.580 the Daily Wire
00:29:50.260 has a report now
00:29:51.200 you go to dailywire.com
00:29:52.140 and see this
00:29:52.700 more information
00:29:54.420 and this is coming again
00:29:56.620 from Red State
00:29:57.360 and Red State
00:29:57.920 has been on top of this
00:29:58.900 and one thing about that
00:30:00.080 also
00:30:00.420 so the site Red State
00:30:03.020 a conservative website
00:30:04.120 they've been on top
00:30:06.380 of this story
00:30:06.920 and that fact
00:30:08.640 has been used
00:30:09.240 to discredit the story
00:30:10.300 people saying
00:30:11.880 well it's a conservative
00:30:13.520 but just a conservative rag
00:30:15.200 propaganda
00:30:15.940 reporting on this
00:30:17.080 no one else
00:30:17.500 is talking about it
00:30:18.280 I've also heard
00:30:18.960 a similar thing
00:30:19.580 with the James Young
00:30:20.280 story
00:30:20.860 where some liberals
00:30:23.120 say oh it's only been
00:30:23.900 conservative sites
00:30:24.580 talking about it
00:30:25.540 that's because the liberal
00:30:26.540 sites refuse to talk
00:30:27.900 about it
00:30:28.300 and with something
00:30:30.160 like this Katie Hill case
00:30:31.320 she's a congresswoman
00:30:33.260 in California
00:30:33.960 there are pictures
00:30:36.360 and text messages
00:30:37.300 that somebody
00:30:39.240 had
00:30:41.700 and was releasing
00:30:42.940 to the media
00:30:43.500 do you
00:30:45.420 do you really think
00:30:47.280 that Red State
00:30:49.200 the person who had
00:30:50.880 this information
00:30:51.560 about Katie Hill
00:30:52.420 you think Red State
00:30:53.500 is the first place
00:30:54.540 that person went
00:30:55.300 there is no way
00:30:57.520 the first
00:31:00.260 the first people in media
00:31:01.380 to hear about this
00:31:02.420 would have been
00:31:03.280 the local media
00:31:04.240 in California
00:31:04.980 they would have been
00:31:06.980 the first people
00:31:07.540 to catch wind of it
00:31:08.280 and so the fact
00:31:09.920 that Red State
00:31:10.460 is publishing
00:31:10.960 it means that
00:31:11.440 they passed on it
00:31:12.420 and it means
00:31:13.840 it must mean
00:31:14.760 that all of the major
00:31:16.420 mass media
00:31:17.840 left-wing outlets
00:31:18.780 passed on it
00:31:19.740 because I just
00:31:22.780 it's just impossible
00:31:23.820 to believe that
00:31:24.600 Red State
00:31:25.220 would be the first ones
00:31:26.620 to get this information
00:31:27.560 to get this bombshell
00:31:29.400 about Katie Hill
00:31:31.460 anyway
00:31:32.400 but Red State
00:31:33.000 they've been doing
00:31:33.460 a good job
00:31:33.840 reporting on it
00:31:34.540 and the Daily Wire
00:31:37.260 well let me quote
00:31:38.260 the Daily Wire now
00:31:39.100 as they are talking
00:31:40.400 about the Red State report
00:31:41.100 so as the young
00:31:41.840 female campaign staffer
00:31:43.360 who described
00:31:43.820 the relationship
00:31:44.320 as being toxic
00:31:45.380 reportedly wrote
00:31:47.600 Hill a message
00:31:48.240 in 2019
00:31:48.900 June 2019
00:31:49.680 saying in part
00:31:50.400 I am terrified
00:31:51.340 of pushing back
00:31:52.020 against you
00:31:52.440 or upsetting you
00:31:53.060 I have seen
00:31:53.840 how you treat Kenny
00:31:54.620 and I think that
00:31:55.380 if I cause any issues
00:31:56.480 even if I am
00:31:57.660 worried about
00:31:58.600 how you were acting
00:31:59.440 that very quickly
00:32:00.220 you will decide
00:32:01.220 you don't want me
00:32:02.060 in your life
00:32:02.580 in a message
00:32:04.560 to Heslop
00:32:05.160 the staffer
00:32:06.460 reportedly said
00:32:07.500 I don't know
00:32:09.020 I was getting ready
00:32:09.940 and I was thinking
00:32:10.680 about how much
00:32:11.120 Katie liked to watch me
00:32:12.520 then reference
00:32:14.080 to a hobby
00:32:14.720 watch me do
00:32:15.540 some kind of hobby
00:32:16.260 I don't know
00:32:16.740 it's okay
00:32:18.780 she can't take
00:32:19.520 this from me
00:32:20.160 she can ruin politics
00:32:21.620 take all my friends
00:32:23.060 and isolate me
00:32:24.020 but she can't have this
00:32:25.340 then Red State added
00:32:27.240 the staffer
00:32:27.740 continued her work
00:32:28.460 on the campaign
00:32:29.060 despite the awkwardness
00:32:30.060 and emotional distress
00:32:30.880 it caused
00:32:31.400 Hill however
00:32:32.500 seemed tone deaf
00:32:33.460 asking her former lover
00:32:35.260 to apply sunscreen
00:32:36.220 on her prior to an event
00:32:37.460 in front of the rest
00:32:38.600 of the staff
00:32:39.060 the young woman
00:32:40.020 later texted Hill
00:32:40.940 to express her displeasure
00:32:43.380 what's the point here
00:32:44.780 the point here
00:32:45.440 is that what we're
00:32:47.620 what we have been told
00:32:48.580 by the left
00:32:49.360 what we've been told
00:32:50.420 by the Me Too movement
00:32:51.540 for years now
00:32:52.800 is that
00:32:54.440 sexual relationships
00:32:56.400 even if they are
00:32:57.480 quote unquote
00:32:58.020 consensual
00:32:58.640 even if they're ostensibly
00:33:00.040 supposedly on the surface
00:33:01.600 anyway
00:33:02.020 consensual
00:33:02.940 relationships between
00:33:04.500 a person in a position
00:33:05.900 of power
00:33:06.500 to a person
00:33:08.240 who is
00:33:08.880 a subordinate
00:33:09.980 and in this case
00:33:12.800 a very
00:33:13.140 a very junior subordinate
00:33:14.760 you've got a congresswoman
00:33:15.800 to a staffer
00:33:16.920 just out of college
00:33:17.640 that those relationships
00:33:20.880 according to the Me Too movement
00:33:22.820 and according to what
00:33:23.740 the left has been saying
00:33:24.740 up until this moment
00:33:25.460 with Katie Hill
00:33:25.980 those relationships
00:33:27.020 cannot really be consensual
00:33:29.120 because of the power dynamic
00:33:31.160 because of the disparity
00:33:32.220 because the other person
00:33:34.000 in the relationship
00:33:34.900 is going to feel
00:33:36.280 potentially threatened
00:33:37.460 they're going to feel like
00:33:38.240 they can't get out of it
00:33:40.060 if they want to
00:33:40.620 they're going to feel like
00:33:41.160 they can't be themselves
00:33:41.940 they can't express themselves
00:33:42.720 that they have to just go along
00:33:44.140 with whatever this other person wants
00:33:45.080 because of the power
00:33:45.940 they have over them
00:33:47.040 they're going to feel threatened
00:33:48.180 they're going to feel intimidated
00:33:49.160 and what do you know
00:33:52.360 you see these text messages
00:33:53.600 allegedly from this person
00:33:55.240 expressing just that feeling
00:33:57.720 that yes
00:33:59.060 I'm intimidated
00:34:00.120 I can't
00:34:00.720 and what do you know
00:34:03.320 you have Katie Hill
00:34:04.560 it would seem
00:34:05.400 potentially
00:34:09.220 taking advantage
00:34:10.780 of that discomfort
00:34:12.460 or at least
00:34:14.380 now as
00:34:14.820 as the red state says
00:34:16.580 she was tone deaf
00:34:17.720 I think that's a generous interpretation
00:34:20.140 where you've got the staffer
00:34:22.640 expressing discomfort
00:34:23.700 and everything
00:34:24.320 intimidation
00:34:25.000 and then
00:34:26.720 Katie Hill
00:34:27.820 after they'd already broken up
00:34:31.340 goes to the staffer
00:34:33.000 and says
00:34:33.380 put some sunscreen on
00:34:34.900 in front of everybody
00:34:35.620 now you can interpret that
00:34:37.860 as her being tone deaf
00:34:39.020 I personally
00:34:40.120 my perspective
00:34:40.840 I interpret that as
00:34:42.340 malicious
00:34:42.980 and a power move
00:34:44.600 because there's just no way
00:34:46.900 you've got
00:34:47.320 you've got this history
00:34:48.300 with this person
00:34:48.960 you're looking for someone
00:34:50.000 to apply sunscreen to you
00:34:51.360 and you choose her
00:34:52.140 of all people
00:34:52.720 that's
00:34:55.600 no that's not
00:34:56.180 in my opinion
00:34:57.060 that's not tone deaf
00:34:57.920 that's not
00:34:58.640 a coincidence
00:34:59.960 that's
00:35:01.000 you're doing that on purpose
00:35:01.980 that's manipulation
00:35:02.760 and that is certainly
00:35:05.560 how it would be interpreted
00:35:06.920 if
00:35:08.500 this was a man
00:35:10.660 we're talking about
00:35:11.420 so even if the media
00:35:13.640 wants to ignore this
00:35:14.600 this is still
00:35:15.800 a huge story
00:35:16.560 it is still
00:35:17.660 a scandal
00:35:18.260 it does matter
00:35:20.180 Katie Hill
00:35:22.760 finally
00:35:23.320 after days
00:35:24.420 came out
00:35:25.800 with a statement
00:35:26.340 addressing some of this
00:35:27.460 now the fact that
00:35:28.860 she was able to get away
00:35:29.840 with saying nothing
00:35:30.900 about it for several days
00:35:32.440 just shows you again
00:35:33.520 how she's not being
00:35:34.360 held accountable
00:35:34.940 how the media
00:35:36.460 is running cover for her
00:35:37.440 but she came out
00:35:38.360 and predictably
00:35:38.980 there was no apology
00:35:40.280 nothing
00:35:40.660 she made herself the victim
00:35:41.640 she said she was the victim
00:35:42.900 because all this information
00:35:43.760 was coming out about her
00:35:44.820 and so it's really all about her
00:35:46.580 she's the victim
00:35:47.100 and she'll get away with that
00:35:50.180 that's it
00:35:51.680 she could come out
00:35:52.480 she's the victim
00:35:53.060 and move on
00:35:54.560 that is what we call
00:35:57.500 female privilege
00:35:58.400 okay let's go to emails
00:36:01.180 Matt Wall show
00:36:01.860 oh actually before emails
00:36:03.100 this doesn't require
00:36:06.100 really any commentary
00:36:06.800 I just wanted to play this
00:36:07.600 if you haven't seen this clip
00:36:08.680 we gotta play it
00:36:10.820 because
00:36:11.140 as you know
00:36:12.300 the NBA
00:36:13.160 NBA players
00:36:14.120 many of them
00:36:14.960 LeBron James
00:36:15.980 among them
00:36:17.100 but not the only one
00:36:17.820 have been embarrassing themselves
00:36:19.420 by falling to their knees
00:36:22.140 and licking the boots
00:36:24.120 of the Chinese government
00:36:25.380 as we have seen
00:36:26.080 over the last few weeks
00:36:27.060 finally we've got someone
00:36:29.180 not a current NBA player
00:36:30.920 but someone associated
00:36:31.820 with the NBA
00:36:32.460 someone who works
00:36:33.320 in professional basketball
00:36:34.660 as a commentator now
00:36:35.940 Shaquille O'Neal
00:36:36.960 I knew we could count on him
00:36:40.040 to have the right take on this
00:36:42.140 and he shared his take
00:36:43.560 on the China thing
00:36:44.300 and he for one
00:36:45.800 at least
00:36:46.180 was not doing
00:36:46.860 any boot licking
00:36:47.920 listen to this
00:36:48.640 we as American people
00:36:50.080 we do a lot of business
00:36:51.140 in China
00:36:51.640 and they know
00:36:52.700 and understand our values
00:36:53.980 and we understand
00:36:55.240 their values
00:36:55.940 and one of our best values
00:36:57.540 here in America
00:36:58.380 is free speech
00:36:59.280 we're allowed to say
00:37:00.620 what we want to say
00:37:01.440 and we're allowed to speak
00:37:02.440 up about injustices
00:37:03.780 and that's just how it goes
00:37:05.420 and if people don't understand
00:37:06.540 that
00:37:06.900 that's something
00:37:07.840 that they have to deal with
00:37:08.900 but you know
00:37:09.580 I just think
00:37:10.200 I thought it was unfortunate
00:37:11.460 for you know
00:37:12.060 both parties
00:37:12.760 and then
00:37:13.200 you got people speaking
00:37:14.620 when they don't know
00:37:15.180 what they're talking about
00:37:16.040 but Daryl Morey was right
00:37:18.580 whenever you see
00:37:19.200 something wrong
00:37:19.900 going on
00:37:20.440 anywhere in the world
00:37:21.260 you should have the right
00:37:22.560 to say
00:37:23.000 that's not right
00:37:23.800 and that's what he did
00:37:24.620 and but again
00:37:25.880 you know
00:37:26.120 when it comes to business
00:37:26.900 sometimes you have to
00:37:27.740 tiptoe around things
00:37:28.700 but again
00:37:29.540 they understand our values
00:37:30.660 we understand our values
00:37:31.680 and here
00:37:32.060 we have the right to speak
00:37:33.500 especially with the social media
00:37:34.580 we're going to say
00:37:35.140 whatever we want to say
00:37:36.120 when we want to say it
00:37:37.460 there you go
00:37:38.580 Shaq
00:37:38.980 see Shaq is a legend
00:37:40.800 for a reason
00:37:41.340 that was a great
00:37:42.540 the fact that
00:37:44.420 he's the first one
00:37:45.740 associated with the NBA
00:37:47.260 to say that
00:37:48.080 and the fact that
00:37:49.100 it actually required
00:37:49.700 courage on his part
00:37:50.620 to say it
00:37:51.240 all he did was
00:37:52.720 come out in favor
00:37:53.360 of free speech
00:37:54.000 and stipulate
00:37:56.320 that we are not
00:37:56.940 a communist regime
00:37:57.780 and we have free speech
00:37:58.500 and we can say
00:37:58.840 what we want
00:37:59.200 the fact that
00:38:00.640 it took courage
00:38:01.360 and it did take courage
00:38:02.240 for him to say that
00:38:02.920 is just
00:38:03.460 just tells you
00:38:04.000 how sad
00:38:04.440 it's gotten in the NBA
00:38:05.780 but good for him
00:38:06.480 okay
00:38:07.320 do we have time
00:38:07.860 for emails
00:38:08.360 I guess we'll do
00:38:09.080 maybe one
00:38:09.840 mattwalshowatgmail.com
00:38:11.800 mattwalshowatgmail.com
00:38:14.540 talked about
00:38:15.200 put pitbulls
00:38:16.100 in the email portion
00:38:17.000 yesterday
00:38:17.260 I got a lot of
00:38:17.740 pitbull related email
00:38:19.040 I haven't got a chance
00:38:20.420 to go through
00:38:20.860 a lot of it
00:38:21.680 this isn't pitbull related
00:38:26.740 but from Rich
00:38:27.380 says
00:38:27.600 dear Matt
00:38:28.020 I agree with your take
00:38:28.900 on airplane
00:38:29.520 slash bus seating arrangements
00:38:30.940 if you're sitting next
00:38:32.180 to someone
00:38:32.560 but the opportunity
00:38:33.100 to move
00:38:33.520 and give both of you
00:38:34.680 more space arises
00:38:35.660 you should take it
00:38:36.480 here's an interesting
00:38:37.560 wrinkle though
00:38:38.200 what about at a bar
00:38:39.780 what if you're sitting
00:38:40.420 at a crowded bar
00:38:41.140 by yourself
00:38:41.780 and all the other seats
00:38:42.640 are taken
00:38:43.040 but people start leaving
00:38:44.040 except the guy next to you
00:38:45.680 doesn't leave
00:38:46.360 so now you two
00:38:47.540 are sitting next to each other
00:38:48.620 at a mostly empty bar
00:38:49.880 do you move in that situation
00:38:51.840 or would it be insulting
00:38:52.920 now I like this
00:38:55.780 first of all
00:38:57.340 of all the emails
00:38:58.080 dealing with serious issues
00:38:59.580 making interesting points
00:39:00.880 this is the one
00:39:01.560 I decide to answer
00:39:02.340 but but but
00:39:02.980 because
00:39:03.560 actually I was
00:39:04.940 I was in this exact
00:39:06.000 situation recently
00:39:06.860 and you know
00:39:10.440 when you're an antisocial
00:39:11.300 person like I am
00:39:12.000 there's a lot of
00:39:13.040 there's a lot of calculus
00:39:13.920 that goes into things
00:39:14.920 you're constantly
00:39:15.920 working out equations
00:39:16.920 and figuring out
00:39:18.440 and mostly you're figuring out
00:39:19.640 how can I
00:39:20.480 just avoid being around
00:39:21.900 people in any
00:39:22.640 in any given situation
00:39:23.560 so this presented
00:39:25.800 now this is
00:39:26.260 this is
00:39:26.620 as we have talked about
00:39:27.940 you know
00:39:29.920 you're sitting next to
00:39:30.500 someone on a plane
00:39:31.260 the airplane ends up
00:39:33.020 being half full
00:39:33.740 the door's shut
00:39:34.960 you know no one else
00:39:36.000 is coming
00:39:36.280 and you have a chance
00:39:37.080 to move
00:39:37.820 and give them more space
00:39:39.440 move all the way
00:39:40.200 to another aisle
00:39:40.800 if you can
00:39:41.360 so you both get
00:39:42.660 to another row
00:39:43.920 if you can
00:39:44.300 to get a whole row
00:39:45.060 to yourself
00:39:45.300 then you should do that
00:39:46.360 Rich brings up
00:39:48.420 an interesting wrinkle
00:39:49.180 to that
00:39:49.440 so I was in
00:39:51.620 a similar situation
00:39:52.580 I was at the bar
00:39:53.180 I was at the bar
00:39:53.800 recently watching
00:39:54.740 Ravens game
00:39:55.720 bar was full
00:39:57.200 so we're all packed
00:39:58.840 in like sardines
00:39:59.700 around halftime though
00:40:01.660 there was a mass exodus
00:40:03.520 for some reason
00:40:04.020 people started leaving
00:40:05.160 even though it was
00:40:07.140 a good game
00:40:07.560 about 10 of the people
00:40:09.720 that were at the bar
00:40:10.900 left
00:40:11.340 so now it's mostly empty
00:40:13.400 just like you said
00:40:14.740 Rich
00:40:14.980 except the guy next to me
00:40:16.800 did not leave
00:40:17.540 he's still there
00:40:19.380 so now we're in
00:40:21.000 that exact spot
00:40:21.960 where we're sitting
00:40:22.860 at a mostly empty bar
00:40:24.200 but the two of us
00:40:25.660 are sitting right next
00:40:26.660 to each other
00:40:27.220 and I'm thinking this
00:40:28.940 I'm thinking
00:40:29.220 okay do I move
00:40:30.480 and this is a little bit
00:40:32.480 more difficult
00:40:32.920 because yes
00:40:33.540 we should give
00:40:34.380 ourselves more space
00:40:35.360 but then in that
00:40:36.160 situation at the bar
00:40:37.080 if I move
00:40:37.700 does it make it
00:40:38.420 does it look
00:40:38.900 is it too conspicuous
00:40:40.180 does it look like
00:40:41.460 I'm making some
00:40:41.980 sort of statement
00:40:42.500 against him
00:40:43.140 like I don't want
00:40:43.500 to be around him
00:40:44.280 and I didn't want
00:40:46.400 to come off that way
00:40:47.020 because he was a nice guy
00:40:47.880 it's just I enjoy
00:40:48.720 my personal space
00:40:49.580 and so I was
00:40:51.620 I was turning this
00:40:52.520 over in my head
00:40:53.380 I was deliberating
00:40:54.540 about it
00:40:55.040 and as I was
00:40:56.860 thinking about it
00:40:57.520 the guy got up
00:40:58.380 and just moved
00:40:59.000 across the bar
00:40:59.920 and the funny
00:41:01.800 thing is
00:41:02.340 that even though
00:41:03.840 I was probably
00:41:04.940 just about to do
00:41:05.600 the same thing
00:41:06.080 I was slightly
00:41:06.900 offended
00:41:07.280 I would
00:41:08.160 I slightly
00:41:08.860 in my head
00:41:09.420 I thought
00:41:09.840 well what's
00:41:10.280 what's that guy's
00:41:11.180 problem
00:41:11.500 what
00:41:12.920 you got a problem
00:41:13.720 with me
00:41:14.100 so to answer
00:41:16.680 your question
00:41:17.220 I guess
00:41:18.000 yes it is
00:41:19.140 slightly offensive
00:41:19.900 to move in that
00:41:20.620 case
00:41:20.960 but you should
00:41:21.980 do it anyway
00:41:22.500 the guiding
00:41:24.360 principle is this
00:41:25.200 anytime you have
00:41:26.200 an opportunity
00:41:26.780 to be antisocial
00:41:29.000 you should take it
00:41:31.520 at least that's
00:41:33.420 how I operate
00:41:34.080 I can't promise
00:41:35.920 it's a key to
00:41:36.720 success and happiness
00:41:37.560 in life
00:41:37.940 but anyway
00:41:38.860 that's one way
00:41:39.620 to live at least
00:41:40.220 and we will
00:41:42.220 leave it there
