The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 738 - Burger King And Nickelodeon Compete For Gold In The Woke Olympics

00:00:00.140 Today on The Matt Wall Show, Burger King and Nickelodeon have come out especially aggressively this month to push radical far-left LGBT propaganda.

00:00:08.040 Both of these companies, though, would be bankrupted tomorrow if conservatives responded by refusing to ever patronize them again like we should.

00:00:14.420 But that won't happen. Why is that? We'll talk about that.

00:00:16.840 Also, five headlines, including the CEO of Pfizer, says that children don't really need the vaccine,

00:00:21.920 but they're going to be testing it on kids anyway for the sake of protecting adults.

00:00:25.880 Isn't that completely backwards?

00:00:27.040 And Chris Harrison of The Bachelor has officially lost his job after groveling and apologizing to the mob, despite having done nothing wrong.

00:00:34.320 So that same old story again.

00:00:35.500 And finally, in our daily cancellation, National Geographic has a message for Whitey. 0.98

00:00:39.800 Be ashamed. Be very ashamed.

00:00:42.020 We'll discuss that and much more today on The Matt Wall Show.

00:00:44.460 One of the newer traditions of Pride Month is the perpetual redesign of the Pride flag.

00:00:59.860 Every year, more colors are added to it as more identities and sexualities sneak their way into the LGBT club.

00:01:06.200 At this point, the rainbow has become less a rainbow and more of a random, chaotic assortment of contrasting colors.

00:01:15.400 As Ben Shapiro put it, the Pride flag now looks like a cat vomited and then looked at the vomit through a kaleidoscope.

00:01:20.800 Now, Media Matters was upset with Ben for that description, by the way, and I was upset, too, mainly because I didn't think of it.

00:01:26.700 Anyway, our dear friends over at Pink News helped to unveil the new Pride flag, which you can see.

00:01:34.580 You notice that the traditional rainbow and then, you know, we know about that.

00:01:39.140 And then there are these other colors that are sort of jutting out, literally and figuratively pushing the traditional rainbow out of view.

00:01:47.140 The newer colors are meant to represent trans people and also black and brown people.

00:01:52.360 Now, you might ask why black and brown people need their own colors on the flag.

00:01:57.580 It's not as though the original colors were representative of anyone's specific race.

00:02:01.780 Wasn't it supposed to be for all races?

00:02:05.120 Purple was on the original Pride flag.

00:02:07.120 There are no purple people running around out there, as far as I know.

00:02:10.260 Though, if anyone identifies as purple, then, of course, I'll respect that self-identity. 0.66

00:02:14.240 The whole thing doesn't make sense, but then making sense has never been a specialty of LGBT activists.

00:02:19.560 What makes the least sense of all?

00:02:22.360 Is the yellow triangle on the new flag with a purple circle, which is meant to represent intersex people.

00:02:29.320 My point is not that the symbol is nonsensical, though it is, but that the inclusion of intersex people on a pride flag at all is nonsensical.

00:02:36.980 Putting intersex people under the LGBT umbrella, including them in the acronym LGBTQI, I think, we're up to, A, so on and so on.

00:02:48.300 But it makes no logical sense.

00:02:49.760 It's intersex is a medical condition. 1.00

00:02:52.980 It's a birth defect.

00:02:54.800 It's a congenital disorder.

00:02:57.820 Intersex is when someone is born with ambiguous genitalia or genitalia that has an appearance that doesn't match with their biological sex.

00:03:05.180 This, again, is a medical condition.

00:03:08.860 It has a medical cause.

00:03:11.140 Lots of times when a child is born this way, you can figure out what the cause was.

00:03:17.060 It's not a mystery.

00:03:18.440 It's not an orientation.

00:03:19.920 It's not a lifestyle choice.

00:03:21.060 It's not a chosen identity.

00:03:22.600 It has absolutely nothing to do with being gay or trans or anything.

00:03:27.460 You might as well include diabetics and people with food allergies on the flag.

00:03:32.640 So why are intersex people being lumped in this way?

00:03:35.260 The answer is that they are useful to the trans agenda.

00:03:38.800 It's the only reason they're there.

00:03:40.920 Trans activists will often use intersex people as a way to prove that sex is non-binary.

00:03:46.360 We hear this all the time, right?

00:03:47.680 What do you mean?

00:03:48.320 What about intersex?

00:03:49.040 Oh, you think that there's only males and females?

00:03:51.160 What about intersex, huh?

00:03:54.120 And if they think if they can use intersex people to prove that sex is non-binary, that would, you know, validate the transgender identity. 0.55

00:04:02.360 The problem is that intersex people do not prove that sex is non-binary.

00:04:06.240 They only prove that physical anomalies exist.

00:04:08.780 Just as people born with one arm don't disprove the statement that humans have two arms.

00:04:14.160 And besides, whatever they prove or don't prove, they do nothing to validate the claims of a biological male with a fully male body who claims to be a woman.

00:04:23.180 It's a totally different thing.

00:04:25.140 The inclusion of intersex people into this whole discussion is nothing but obfuscation.

00:04:28.740 It's dissembling.

00:04:30.120 They should make the circle into a shield because that's what the intersex condition is for LGBT activists. 1.00

00:04:34.920 It's something they can hide behind.

00:04:36.340 But that is all somewhat irrelevant to the point at hand.

00:04:41.040 Getting to the point.

00:04:42.680 And for a more thorough explanation of the pride flag, we can now turn again to Nickelodeon, which enlisted a drag queen to explain the pride flag to children.

00:04:51.740 If this sounds like a rerun from last week, if you're saying, well, did we just do this last week?

00:04:55.580 We did.

00:04:57.160 Nickelodeon had the drag queen Nina West sing a song about gay pride on Blue's Clues, a show for preschoolers just a few days ago.

00:05:05.960 So now West is back and cross-dressing again to perform another gay pride song for preschoolers. 0.67

00:05:13.600 And I will now subject you to a small portion of it.

00:05:16.740 You're welcome.

00:05:17.240 Here it is.

00:05:17.660 Maybe blue, pink, and white represent transgender people because every letter in LGBTQ plus is equal.

00:05:26.300 And black and brown represent the queer and trans people of color.

00:05:30.160 Doesn't it just fill you with pride?

00:05:35.340 Showing who you are on the inside.

00:05:39.080 Wave that pride flag up high.

00:05:41.760 Be true to you.

00:05:42.780 Show your pride.

00:05:43.800 Wave those flags, everybody.

00:05:45.620 Here we go.

00:05:46.220 Red, light, orange, healing.

00:05:47.980 Yellow is sunlight.

00:05:49.580 Green, nature, blue.

00:05:50.820 Hearty, purple is spirit.

00:05:52.480 Baby, blue, pink, and white represent transgender people.

00:05:55.160 And black and brown represent the queer and trans people of color.

00:06:02.920 We're all in this together.

00:06:05.360 So wave that pride flag way up high.

00:06:08.160 Never forget it.

00:06:09.160 Go big.

00:06:10.080 Be kind.

00:06:10.940 Be you.

00:06:13.560 An appropriately bad and ugly song about a hideously ugly flag.

00:06:19.060 And that's the only thing I can call appropriate here.

00:06:21.800 By the way, the drag queen's real name, I should mention, is Andrew Levitt.

00:06:27.540 And I want to show you what he looks like in real life.

00:06:31.060 And the only reason I want to show you that is in order for, so that you know, you know,

00:06:35.300 okay, well, there's Andrew Levitt right there.

00:06:38.600 Nina West.

00:06:39.620 I mean, this is a guy who's made it his mission now to sing about transgenderism and pansexuality to preschoolers.

00:06:48.360 That's his mission in life, apparently.

00:06:50.680 But in order for Levitt to go from what you see in this photo to what you saw in the video,

00:06:55.160 he must appropriate womanhood in the most demeaning and cartoonish way imaginable. 1.00

00:06:59.180 As I've argued many times, drag queens are an example, a rather garish in-your-face example, of actual appropriation. 1.00

00:07:05.180 These men are making caricatures out of womanhood.

00:07:08.220 If a white guy in dreads is somehow appropriating from black people, even though white guys have been wearing dreads for millennia, 0.89

00:07:14.560 then certainly a man with fake breasts, a wig, a dress, a female stage name, etc., is appropriating from women.

00:07:20.500 But they get away with it because drag is associated with LGBT identities,

00:07:24.060 and LGBTs stand at the top of the victim hierarchy, 1.00

00:07:26.780 even though these are the least oppressed and most celebrated people in society, hands down.

00:07:31.980 As for the fact that this was on Nickelodeon, I have frequently discussed the issue of the sexual indoctrination of children.

00:07:39.120 This obviously is another case of that.

00:07:41.700 Nickelodeon is not at all hiding its agenda.

00:07:45.060 Okay, that's the point.

00:07:46.060 They're not shy about it.

00:07:47.840 They have announced to the world with parades, literally, and fireworks and trumpets blaring,

00:07:52.720 that they wish to indoctrinate very young children into far-left radicalism.

00:07:58.080 They wish to introduce concepts like pansexuality and transgenderism to your three-year-old.

00:08:04.780 They wish for your three-year-old to actually adopt one of those identities,

00:08:07.940 and they're going to try to make that happen.

00:08:10.300 They're not being coy about this.

00:08:12.100 It's right there in the open.

00:08:14.660 But here's the sad thing.

00:08:16.460 And it's also the reason conservatives are losing the culture war.

00:08:19.020 I can guarantee many conservative parents, even after being made aware of this,

00:08:27.900 will still allow their children to watch the network after all this.

00:08:32.420 I mean, they put out two videos of a drag queen pushing transgenderism, etc., on preschoolers

00:08:37.580 in the span of a week, and yet still many parents who rightly object to that kind of content

00:08:43.480 will not prevent their children from being exposed to it.

00:08:46.500 Worse, they will justify their laziness and neglect on the basis of principle.

00:08:52.860 They'll claim that it goes against their conservative principles to boycott or to engage in cancel culture,

00:09:00.260 even if they're canceling, quote-unquote canceling, major corporations that are trying to brainwash

00:09:06.980 and corrupt their own children. 0.58

00:09:08.960 These are the same people who probably will still eat at Burger King.

00:09:15.640 Although Burger King put out a tweet yesterday taking a shot at Chick-fil-A and announcing that,

00:09:20.820 and the shot at Chick-fil-A, who cares?

00:09:23.700 What I do care about is that they announced they'll make a donation to the human rights campaign

00:09:29.180 for every chicken sandwich they sell.

00:09:31.840 Now, I've been to Burger King maybe twice in 15 years, and both times to use the bathroom

00:09:39.260 on a long drive, you know.

00:09:42.600 Burger King is good for that, at least. 1.00

00:09:45.240 There might have been one other occasion at an airport when they were the only place open, 0.98

00:09:49.740 but that's about it because the food is trash.

00:09:52.260 That is, unless you enjoy soggy french fries and hamburgers that are made eight hours ahead of time, 0.86

00:09:57.220 then zapped bun and mayo and everything in the microwave right before serving it.

00:10:01.140 That's why when you do get Burger King, everything is piping hot,

00:10:05.580 including the mayo itself is, like, scalding hot, like molten lava,

00:10:09.260 because they put everything in the microwave.

00:10:12.600 It's hard for me to believe that anyone eats at Burger King regularly and on purpose,

00:10:16.520 but apparently people do.

00:10:18.840 And again, the sad thing is that people still will eat there after this, conservatives included.

00:10:26.360 They have just told us that they will take our money if you give it to them.

00:10:31.140 They will take it, and they will give some of it to the Human Rights Campaign,

00:10:34.740 which is a radical, far-left, militant organization.

00:10:39.700 If you eat at Burger King now, you're not only playing Russian roulette with food poisoning,

00:10:44.080 but you are directly giving to one of the most radically leftist advocacy organizations in existence.

00:10:49.420 And yet, Burger King probably will not see a massive drop-off in sales as every conservative decides to spend their money elsewhere. 0.98

00:10:59.080 That's what's so sad and pathetic. 0.95

00:11:03.200 Burger King would be bankrupted if every conservative stopped eating there. 0.98

00:11:08.940 Nickelodeon would also be put under if every conservative parent stopped allowing their children to watch it.

00:11:14.760 But that's probably not what's going to happen.

00:11:18.800 And that's why we lose.

00:11:21.160 If we want to win, we have to start playing for keeps.

00:11:25.080 We have to make these companies pay a price.

00:11:27.520 We have to decide what exactly we're conserving as conservatives.

00:11:33.260 That's the classic question.

00:11:34.500 I know for me, I can answer that question.

00:11:38.720 What do I want to conserve?

00:11:39.920 I want to conserve moral decency, sanity, truth.

00:11:44.160 As a parent, first and foremost, I want to conserve my own children's souls and innocence.

00:11:52.540 If you're not focused on conserving any of that, then I just don't know whose side you're on exactly.

00:12:00.980 And whatever side it is, we aren't on the same one.

00:12:06.700 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:12:14.160 Now we check in with our sponsors over at AR500 Armor.

00:12:18.220 You know, one thing I've been thinking a lot about, especially recently, I've always had this on my mind,

00:12:23.120 but it's been on my mind even more recently, is about the need and responsibility that I have to keep my family safe.

00:12:29.580 And that's one great advantage of the Second Amendment.

00:12:32.360 That's one thing the Second Amendment enables us to do.

00:12:34.560 And you've heard me share about how important Second Amendment is to the foundation of our country

00:12:38.080 and how preparing yourself is so important.

00:12:41.800 And body armor is also a part of that.

00:12:43.580 I'd recommend you check out AR500 Armor.

00:12:46.080 They have loadouts designed for everyone, whether you need a concealable vest for daily use,

00:13:32.600 Speaking of the innocence of children, does anyone, I don't know if this is a thing,

00:13:37.940 if this is a normal thing with kids, because I only have my own kids,

00:13:42.820 but my kids, other parents, do you have this?

00:13:46.400 See, my kids will wake up in the morning, very early, and start singing.

00:13:56.560 They're literally bouncing off the walls and singing at about 6 a.m.

00:13:59.680 I left the house this morning, or I got up around 6 a.m., and I heard my son upstairs,

00:14:06.360 and he had just woken up himself, and he's singing.

00:14:09.980 It's like I'm living in the Von Trapp family, Sound of Music.

00:14:14.080 And I'm not a morning person at all, but that's my kids.

00:14:17.640 And I can kind of see, I remember being a kid myself vaguely,

00:14:24.080 and I can remember, I remember as Christmas was really the day

00:14:29.000 when I would wake up at the, all of us, you know, and my siblings would wake up

00:14:32.960 at the crack of dawn, or pounding on my parents' door.

00:14:36.940 Wake up, wake up, come on, it's time.

00:14:39.460 And they're just grunting at us like grizzly bears.

00:14:41.820 Get away, it's too early.

00:14:43.300 Like, I remember doing that on Christmas and birthday special occasions.

00:14:49.740 My kids do that every day, every day.

00:14:56.460 But you know what?

00:14:57.500 That's what I said, it's innocence.

00:14:58.720 It's, they're just so excited.

00:15:02.120 That's what makes it kind of sad, because I think, why am I not the same way?

00:15:05.180 They are so excited to be awake.

00:15:07.780 As soon as they wake up, it'll be 5.30, and they're just ready to go.

00:15:11.340 Let's go, it's time.

00:15:13.300 Another day, singing joyously before the sun rises.

00:15:20.380 It's very cute, but it's also incredibly annoying.

00:15:26.500 Okay, let's go number one here.

00:15:29.900 The chairman and CEO of Pfizer, Albert Bourla, he tweeted this yesterday.

00:15:34.260 He says, although data shows that severe COVID-19 is rare in children, widespread vaccination is a critical tool to help stop transmission.

00:15:44.340 That's why I'm excited we have begun dosing participants aged 5 to 11 in a global phase 2-3 study of the Pfizer vaccine.

00:15:55.460 Just the phrase, I'm excited we've begun dosing participants aged 5 to 11, that is creepy enough.

00:16:03.640 I'm excited we've started dosing them.

00:16:05.500 He continues, this is an essential study to help further evaluate the vaccine, and if safety and immunogenicity in this age group is confirmed, protect our communities and children aged 5 to 11.

00:16:19.660 We're grateful for the enthusiasm we have been seeing in response to the trial.

00:16:23.980 We couldn't advance this work without courageous volunteers.

00:16:27.560 Courageous volunteers?

00:16:28.480 Who are the courageous volunteers?

00:16:30.660 What do you mean courageous?

00:16:31.560 The kids aren't volunteering.

00:16:34.620 They don't know a 5-year-old?

00:16:36.940 I hope we're not calling a 5-year-old a volunteer.

00:16:40.440 They have no idea.

00:16:42.240 They have no idea what they're volunteering for.

00:16:47.540 All they know is that after this thing happens, they get a lollipop and a sticker.

00:16:52.680 They're volunteering for a lollipop and a sticker.

00:16:55.340 That's what they're volunteering for.

00:16:56.360 The possibility of side effects and everything else, they don't know anything about that.

00:17:06.160 So, no, it's the parents who are volunteering them to, volunteering to take this dose to help the drug company confirm the safety of the shot for kids.

00:17:22.000 Meaning, we haven't confirmed that it's safe yet.

00:17:26.360 We haven't confirmed that this drug is safe for kids yet.

00:17:29.500 Hey, parents, do you want to line your kids up and we'll shoot it into their arms and see what happens? 0.98

00:17:34.600 To help us confirm the safety?

00:17:39.640 So, who are the courageous ones?

00:17:41.720 The parents?

00:17:43.160 The parents are courageously putting their own kids' health on the line?

00:17:51.320 Is that courageous for them?

00:17:52.900 Because it's not them.

00:17:54.020 It's their kid.

00:17:54.660 This, to me, is so backwards and just wrong and infuriating.

00:18:03.960 You've got the CEO of Pfizer who is saying,

00:18:09.140 COVID-19, a rare COVID, rather, severe COVID-19 is rare in children.

00:18:14.260 We know that.

00:18:14.880 Everyone knows that.

00:18:15.480 It's rare that they contract it.

00:18:19.960 It's rare.

00:18:20.440 It's even more rare that they have a severe reaction to it.

00:18:23.120 It's rare that they spread it.

00:18:24.960 All of that is rare.

00:18:27.280 They're not a high-risk group.

00:18:29.420 So, why do they need to take the vaccine at all?

00:18:34.160 Why are we doing this at all for them?

00:18:38.920 Well, we're doing it to protect the grown-ups.

00:18:41.800 And that's why I've been hammering on this point the whole time, from day one, how we've got this completely backwards.

00:18:51.960 Over the last, whatever, 14, 15 months, we have been requiring, and when I say we, I mean like the universal we as society.

00:19:04.880 We have been requiring our kids to make sacrifice after sacrifice for us, to keep us safe and to make us feel better.

00:19:17.000 And I have to amend that, because it's not really to keep us safe and make us feel better.

00:19:20.100 It's to make us feel better.

00:19:23.500 Because our safety was never significantly put at risk by kids running around without masks on.

00:19:31.640 Kids wearing masks, that doesn't really do much for our own safety.

00:19:37.540 It just makes us psychologically feel better.

00:19:42.120 What psychological effect does it have on the kids?

00:19:44.060 Who cares?

00:19:44.820 It's not about them.

00:19:45.440 It's about us.

00:19:48.180 It's supposed to be, what happened to, it should be the exact opposite.

00:19:52.220 What happened to us as grown-ups making sacrifices for kids?

00:19:55.320 I have also said from the beginning, I will happily risk getting COVID for the sake of not forcing kids to wear masks.

00:20:06.640 If my own kids had contracted COVID, which again would have been a rare occurrence, but if they had, I wasn't going to put masks on them and segregate them from the family.

00:20:19.880 If they got it, all right, I had this, we, my wife and I talked about this early on.

00:20:24.240 We said, well, if they get it, then we're getting it.

00:20:26.200 It's just, that's just what it's going to be.

00:20:29.620 We're not going to lock them in a room somewhere.

00:20:32.240 Treat them like rabid animals. 0.53

00:20:36.640 And now we're dosing them with this, um, with this drug.

00:20:41.480 And what's even, if you got the vaccine, see, no one can explain this.

00:20:45.240 If the vaccine works, if it's effective, then why do you need kids to have to take it?

00:20:53.340 What are you worried about?

00:20:55.440 Is it effective or not?

00:20:59.420 All right, next we have, um, I just want to play this for you.

00:21:02.100 Mitch McConnell had brief comments about why he opposes the so-called voting rights law from, uh, from Democrats.

00:21:10.720 And I saw this making the rounds on social media.

00:21:13.400 People were kind of upset about it, about what he said here, but, uh, he's exactly right.

00:21:19.080 So here's what he said.

00:21:20.380 There's no threat to the voting rights law.

00:21:23.060 It's against the law to discriminate in voting on the base of race already.

00:21:28.740 And so I think it's unnecessary.

00:21:31.420 That's it.

00:21:32.680 There's no threat to voting rights in America right now.

00:21:37.560 And, uh, people were upset.

00:21:39.660 Of course, leftists were upset.

00:21:41.120 How dare he?

00:21:42.540 Couldn't give an example of how, how are anyone's voting rights on the line?

00:21:48.520 How are anyone's voting rights being infringed?

00:21:53.860 Once you get, once you reach voting age, everyone can vote.

00:21:58.160 There's nothing stopping you.

00:22:01.860 It's easier than it's ever been.

00:22:04.620 There's absolutely nothing preventing you.

00:22:07.200 If you're legally eligible to vote, there's nothing preventing you from doing it.

00:22:11.120 This is one of the biggest strawmans in the, in, you know, in political discourse right now.

00:22:19.260 It's about voting rights.

00:22:20.560 We have to protect voting rights.

00:22:21.860 What do you mean protect voting rights?

00:22:23.940 They are under no threat at all.

00:22:27.400 There are no laws preventing anyone from voting on the basis of race in, in America in the year 2021.

00:22:33.800 That doesn't exist.

00:22:34.740 Oh, voter ID, but voter ID, uh, disparate, but really voter ID is, uh, is a, is a, is a ploy.

00:22:44.320 It's a conspiracy to stop, uh, black people from, from voting.

00:22:48.920 Still, no one's been able to explain why can't, so you're saying a black person can't get an ID. 0.78

00:22:53.320 You're saying that most of them don't already have IDs like white people do. 0.94

00:22:57.000 You need it to participate in society as an adult anyway.

00:23:06.280 I mean, I don't know who these adults are who don't have photo IDs, but I, I, I don't know who they are.

00:23:13.120 I never meet them because they wouldn't really be able to do anything without one.

00:23:18.680 Who, can someone, give me an example.

00:23:20.880 I want an example.

00:23:21.860 Show me, uh, you know, an adult.

00:23:23.660 I don't mean someone that just turned 18 or whatever.

00:23:26.480 Show me like, uh, someone who's 30, okay.

00:23:28.960 Or 25 and really wants a photo ID and doesn't have one yet.

00:23:35.300 Who, who is that person?

00:23:39.580 And whoever it is, let us know who that person is.

00:23:41.600 Cause we can easily explain to them.

00:23:43.240 We can say, Hey, uh, all you gotta do is go to the DMV.

00:23:46.240 There's definitely a DMV near you.

00:23:48.280 You can easily get there.

00:23:53.660 I don't know who, I just don't know who these, I don't know who the people are who can't find IDs or don't know how to get them, but there is no, no threat to, uh, voting rights.

00:24:01.800 And I say that, as you know, as someone who, uh, I actually want to restrict voting rights, not on the basis of race, but on the basis of, of knowledge and competency.

00:24:12.740 I've been very clear about that all along.

00:24:15.460 I think, I think way fewer people should be voting and I'm actually in favor of restricting voting rights.

00:24:23.640 Um, in order to keep ignoramuses of all races and sexes out of the voting booths booths, but that that's my agenda.

00:24:35.020 That's what I would like to see happen.

00:24:36.140 Um, there is no support for it, sadly.

00:24:39.500 See, I'm the guy who wants to do that and is very open about it.

00:24:42.340 And I can tell you on the right, there is no, really almost no support for my view, especially not for people in power.

00:24:51.080 I am, I am way out on a, on, in the fringes with, uh, with, with that view.

00:24:55.940 And I fully admit that.

00:24:57.060 So you've got nothing to worry about.

00:25:01.960 All right.

00:25:02.700 Number three is from CNN.

00:25:04.180 It says Chris Harrison is not getting a rose from ABC.

00:25:07.560 The show's producer and distributor, Warner Horizon and ABC Entertainment confirmed to CNN Tuesday in a joint statement that the longtime Bachelor franchise host is exiting the show.

00:25:17.440 The statement reads, Chris Harrison is stepping aside as host of the Bachelor franchise.

00:25:20.980 We're thankful for his many contributions over the past 20 years.

00:25:23.740 I wish him all the best on his new journey.

00:25:25.600 We're thankful, but we threw him under the bus.

00:25:27.880 We destroyed him.

00:25:28.980 We ruined his life and his career.

00:25:30.540 Uh, but we wish him all the best.

00:25:34.640 It's like, you've just trampled this guy into the ground and he's laying there.

00:25:40.000 His bones are broken.

00:25:41.400 He can't move.

00:25:42.480 He's paralyzed.

00:25:43.580 And then you say, Hey, wish you all the best.

00:25:48.760 Harrison announced in February that he was stepping aside from the show following controversial remarks.

00:25:53.120 Well, I don't need to keep controversial, controversial remarks.

00:25:56.140 No, I'll, I'm not going to let CNN explain to you what happened.

00:25:58.300 If you don't remember, Chris Harrison, host of the Bachelor.

00:26:00.840 Uh, he, he, uh, was responding to the controversy surrounding another, a contestant, Rachel Lindsay, white woman who years prior as a college student had gone to an antebellum themed, like old South themed, uh, frat party.

00:26:19.980 Which have been very common, which have been very common, it's not racist, okay?

00:26:25.740 It's not, it's, there's, there's, there's, there's not confederate flags hanging all over the place.

00:26:31.320 Okay, this is not a, um, a, uh, it's not a confederacy themed, uh, party.

00:26:40.020 In fact, it's antebellum means before the war.

00:26:46.940 So, um, she went to this, to this party, not racist at all.

00:26:51.540 There was a picture of it.

00:26:52.760 And remember then, and then she, there's this big racism controversy and they were trying to cancel her and destroy her.

00:26:58.520 All Chris Harrison does is he, he, in an interview with, uh, Rachel, oh no, Rachel Kirk Connell is now I'm getting all confused.

00:27:06.760 Maybe I did need CNN to explain this.

00:27:08.540 Rachel Kirk Connell is the, is the white, uh, contestant who got canceled.

00:27:12.800 Rachel Lindsay is another host.

00:27:15.460 And, um, Chris Harrison was in an interview with Rachel Lindsay.

00:27:18.580 And all he did was defend Kirk Connell and say, hey, you know, maybe we don't need to ruin her life because she went to a frat party or sorority party a few years ago. 0.84

00:27:29.300 You know, maybe there's no reason to do that.

00:27:30.860 Let's have a little bit of grace and forgiveness.

00:27:33.000 That's what he said.

00:27:33.740 He called for grace and forgiveness.

00:27:36.920 And for that, he had to step down and now he's gone from the show permanently, which I think we all saw coming, but he's another one just like, uh, who is it?

00:27:49.680 Ellie Kemper.

00:27:50.420 We talked about yesterday, both of them.

00:27:53.800 I can't really defend them because they both apologized and he came out.

00:27:58.780 But Chris Harrison came out just groveling and begging for forgiveness, even though he had done nothing wrong at all.

00:28:07.480 He still loses his job anyway.

00:28:09.780 And they're not done.

00:28:10.740 So CNN, uh, on news that Chris Harrison was stepping down, CNN decided to dance on his grave and, uh, Don Lemon brought Rachel Lindsay, the bachelor host who had the, uh, who had the initial interview with Chris Harrison where he defended Rachel Kirk Connell, brought her in.

00:28:26.080 And they just decided to, you know, to, to, to spit on him a little bit more while he's down.

00:28:31.080 Let's watch that.

00:28:32.580 What did you think when you heard Chris Harrison make this distinction between attending an old South antebellum theme party in 2018 versus now?

00:28:41.220 I mean, 2018 was just like yesterday we had Charlottesville had happened in 2018.

00:28:46.020 We had racial reckoning in America in 2018 as if it was somehow okay then.

00:28:52.380 Well, we had racist issues on the show in 2017.

00:28:56.180 There was a racist, racist contestant casted for my season in 2018.

00:29:01.360 Uh, the lead picked someone who had, who was liking racist, xenophobic, transphobic, homophobic things on social media.

00:29:08.260 So we've dealt with this within the franchise.

00:29:10.800 So my initial reaction was I was shocked.

00:29:14.180 I thought maybe he misspoke, but then when he continued down this path, I thought, oh no, this is really what he wants to say.

00:29:21.700 And I felt I needed to let him say it.

00:29:25.300 Why do you think Chris Harrison was willing to give Rachel Kirk Connell so much room for her hurtful actions,

00:29:32.980 as yet couldn't muster an empathy towards communities of color who were offended or even to you in that interview?

00:29:39.840 And correct me if I'm wrong, seemingly as if trying to teach you something or, um, I mean, just, uh, go on.

00:29:51.620 Well, I think that's the problem in our society is that people aren't trying to understand the other side.

00:29:57.480 Ah, people aren't trying to understand the other side.

00:30:02.600 Unlike you, Rachel, right?

00:30:04.620 You really wanted to understand his point of view.

00:30:07.900 She wanted to understand his point of view so, so much that she was shocked that he would even have a point of view that differs from her own.

00:30:16.120 Um, that's what you're getting is that both, both Rachel and Don there are, they're, they're, they're flabbergasted.

00:30:21.840 They're, they're almost speechless.

00:30:24.480 Still, now, months later, they haven't gotten over the emotional trauma caused by the fact that this guy had a, had a point of view that slightly differed from theirs.

00:30:35.180 And only slightly.

00:30:37.580 Because he wasn't even defending.

00:30:39.400 He, he wasn't going as far as I'm going right now, really, really extreme.

00:30:44.140 Um, you know, I'm, I'm, I would flat out say there's nothing wrong with the party she went to.

00:30:50.020 That's what I would say.

00:30:51.160 He didn't even say that.

00:30:53.600 He wasn't defending the party.

00:30:55.020 In fact, he kept, he kept hedging and, and, and, uh, all of that.

00:30:58.060 He's very circumspect about it.

00:31:00.500 And he kept, he kept saying over and over again, I'm not defending it.

00:31:03.320 I would never defend it.

00:31:04.580 I'm not saying, I just, all I'm saying is maybe we have a little grace and forgiveness.

00:31:08.420 That was his only, so it's a slight, slight divergence from, from their own view.

00:31:14.140 And that he would even diverge slightly.

00:31:20.340 I mean, Rachel Lindsay said it.

00:31:21.700 She was, she was sitting there shocked, just speechless.

00:31:24.820 Are you, are you telling me this white man is daring to disagree with me?

00:31:30.440 I can't believe it. 0.97

00:31:31.440 Well, clearly we have to destroy his life and that's what she decided to do.

00:31:37.940 And as much as I would like to defend Chris Harrison, just because I detest this kind of thing. 0.91

00:31:44.260 And I think Rachel Lindsay obviously is a vile, vile, evil person. 1.00

00:31:50.700 And I don't think that's going overboard.

00:31:52.420 When you, like when you just destroy someone's life for no reason, no reason at all, just to exert your own power and influence.

00:32:00.600 And just so you can position yourself as the victim.

00:32:02.640 Yeah, that is evil behavior.

00:32:04.140 So on that basis, I'd like to defend Chris Harrison, but I can't because he groveled and apologized.

00:32:10.500 And it got him nothing.

00:32:13.920 And I can keep on saying this and it won't matter because people will keep on doing it.

00:32:19.220 But he might as well.

00:32:20.920 You see, it's too late now.

00:32:22.420 See, he's, he's, he's already admitted guilt.

00:32:25.060 He lost his job.

00:32:26.480 He's admitted basically that he's a racist, even though he isn't.

00:32:35.500 Yeah.

00:32:36.000 Would he have lost his job if he had come out from beginning and said, you know what?

00:32:41.460 I didn't say anything wrong.

00:32:42.820 How dare all of you, you all owe me an apology. 1.00

00:32:49.100 Rachel Lindsay, you disgusting brat. 1.00

00:32:54.360 You know what you're doing. 1.00

00:32:56.480 I demand you apologize to me.

00:33:00.840 Now, if he, if he had said that, would he have lost his job?

00:33:03.400 Yes.

00:33:03.880 Would he have lost it a lot quicker?

00:33:05.500 Absolutely.

00:33:06.600 But he was losing it anyway.

00:33:08.640 And at least there he has his dignity.

00:33:11.520 And also he can continue to, you know, he has not admitted guilt.

00:33:19.980 But it won't matter.

00:33:21.120 This is just for, for someone like Chris Harrison, especially living in the world that he does.

00:33:26.300 It's, it's, it's, it's instinctive to, to apologize.

00:33:31.260 The moment he sees that he's losing social acceptance, which is the thing that he craves most of all, even more than money and his job and everything, what he wants is to be socially accepted.

00:33:43.960 And, uh, and he clings on to that.

00:33:47.360 All these people do.

00:33:48.520 And the moment he sees that slipping through his fingers, he, he says whatever he thinks he needs to say to maintain some chance of, of social acceptance.

00:33:57.380 And it's all for not, it's all for nothing.

00:33:59.060 All right, let's see.

00:34:03.320 Um, I think we had one more here, if I can find it.

00:34:08.920 Okay.

00:34:09.380 From the Daily Wire, it says a, um, Luden County, Virginia, and eventually I'll figure out how to actually pronounce, is it Loudon?

00:34:15.200 I think it's Loudon.

00:34:15.840 Okay.

00:34:16.000 Luden, Luden County, Virginia, um, a Loudon County, Virginia, elementary school teacher who was placed on administrative leave in May for refusing to affirm transgender identity and children was reinstated by a judge on Tuesday.

00:34:28.160 Byron Tanner Cross, who, uh, teaches physical education at Leesburg elementary school, secured a temporary injunction from Judge James Plowman in his lawsuit against, uh, Loudon County public schools.

00:34:39.940 According to an announcement from Alliance Defending Freedom, which defended him, ADF tweeted, quote,

00:34:45.760 Tanner Cross, a Virginia elementary school teacher and ADF client who was suspended for raising concerns to the board about proposed gender policy, has won a temporary injunction and the judge has ordered his reinstatement.

00:34:55.040 A massive victory for freedom of speech.

00:34:58.160 I would only offer one correction.

00:35:00.960 It's not just a victory for freedom of speech.

00:35:02.860 It's a victory for, for truth, for science, for sanity, all those things that I said we should be conserving.

00:35:09.600 It's a victory for that.

00:35:11.460 Um, local WTOP reporter, Neil Augenstein, uh, Augenstein reported that Plowman found the school system's suspension was unconstitutional and its handling of the situation was vindictive.

00:35:25.040 Yeah, you think?

00:35:25.900 The school argued that it suspended Cross, not for his beliefs, but because of the disruption he allegedly caused.

00:35:32.860 But Plowman said there was simply an absence of evidence that any disruption to school operations took place.

00:35:39.480 And yeah, if it does disrupt school operations, it's because you have decided to operate the school around this anti-science, anti-truth, totally insane gender theory thing.

00:35:54.020 If, if, if, if, if, if a teacher simply affirming that boys are boys and girls are girls disrupts operation, that tells me something about the way that the school is being operated.

00:36:07.680 But now he's being reinstated.

00:36:11.840 So I wanted to, to highlight that story as a nice little contrast.

00:36:15.960 Okay.

00:36:17.380 In one case, you have a guy who didn't do anything wrong, grobbles and apologizes, loses his job, loses everything, loses respect, loses social acceptance, loses everything he wants.

00:36:26.700 He, he, he gives up his dignity and, um, and in exchange gets nothing in return.

00:36:32.140 In the very next story, you have someone who also did nothing wrong, faced consequences for it, rather than apologizing, rather than coming out and saying, oh, gee, uh, you know, come to think of it, uh, I guess, yeah, I guess sometimes boys are girls. 0.93

00:36:46.100 Silly me.

00:36:46.820 I'm so sorry for my transphobia. 0.92

00:36:49.160 Rather than doing that, which is what most people do.

00:36:52.680 We have this teacher who's fighting back.

00:36:54.380 He's saying, hell no, this is not going to happen.

00:36:57.360 I'll take you to court.

00:36:58.200 And for now he's, he's winning.

00:37:07.060 And even if he doesn't ultimately win, I mean, even if ultimately he gets, uh, he loses the job when all is said and done and all the, and, and, you know, it's, this has made its way through all the courts and everything still, you know, he would have lost his job anyway, but now he retains his dignity and he's, and he's fighting for truth and he's doing the right thing.

00:37:28.200 And he's sending a message that, you know what, not everybody is going to slink away quietly.

00:37:34.860 Finally, quick bonus thing.

00:37:38.920 I just wanted to show you an Indiana Jones Twitter account or something, unofficial account.

00:37:42.920 I think had a picture from, I didn't even know this was a thing that was happening.

00:37:46.720 I can't say I'm surprised, but, uh, they had a picture from the set of Indiana Jones five.

00:37:52.240 And the tweet says exclusive photo we got right now.

00:37:55.600 There's the picture.

00:37:56.320 Harrison Ford sighted on the set of Indiana Jones five.

00:38:00.880 Look at that picture.

00:38:02.700 How depressing is this?

00:38:05.460 Harrison Ford, how old is there?

00:38:06.580 Harrison Ford is like 80 years old.

00:38:08.400 Almost.

00:38:08.860 I think.

00:38:10.820 So you've had this old kind of shriveled man wearing a, wearing a face mask outside.

00:38:17.420 Presumably he's already vaccinated.

00:38:20.180 Indiana Jones now elderly and wearing them and too afraid to walk outside without a mask.

00:38:24.700 Just let it go.

00:38:28.820 Like Indiana Jones, the first three movies were entertaining.

00:38:31.500 It was an entertaining story, entertaining idea.

00:38:35.440 It's let it go.

00:38:39.200 But you know what?

00:38:39.960 Just like conservatives will, will keep going to Burger King for whatever reason.

00:38:43.680 And they'll let their kids watch a Nickelodeon.

00:38:48.760 People are going to file into the theater or at least go on streaming to watch this joke of a movie.

00:38:53.480 To watch an 80 year old Indiana Jones fighting bad guys.

00:38:59.800 We all complain about this kind of stuff.

00:39:02.960 The never ending sequels and they just, they run these franchises into the ground.

00:39:08.860 We complain about it that people still watch the movies.

00:39:10.860 So as long as we watch them, they're going to keep churning them out.

00:39:13.400 All right.

00:39:13.900 Let's go now to reading the YouTube comments.

00:39:19.000 It says, there was something so unnatural about hearing Matt utter the words, my sweet babies.

00:39:25.100 Anthony says, Matt calling all of us sweet babies gave me PTSD.

00:39:28.500 But then another comment says, okay, so Matt's fan base is officially known as the sweet baby gang.

00:39:36.520 I, I, I guess I can't really tell anyone else how to identify themselves.

00:39:42.360 If you want to be the sweet baby gang, you can be.

00:39:45.360 Yeah.

00:39:45.740 You know what?

00:39:45.980 Let's go with that.

00:39:46.640 Just to, just to really confuse everybody who doesn't listen to the show.

00:39:52.060 Hearing people who are fans of the show identify themselves as a sweet baby gang.

00:39:55.660 And the agreement we have to make is that we never explain to anyone where that comes from or why.

00:40:05.900 Bo 7341 says, Matt, you're usually on point, but you missed the Trump DeSantis thing.

00:40:11.040 If Trump builds up the Trump DeSantis 2024 momentum right now, it'll hand DeSantis the nomination when Trump announces he's not running in 2023.

00:40:18.560 Meanwhile, the mainstream media will stay focused on Trump instead of targeting DeSantis.

00:40:22.140 Because if that's the goal with the talk of Trump DeSantis 2024, then great.

00:40:28.840 Okay.

00:40:29.320 I just really don't think that is the goal.

00:40:32.760 I don't think Trump is going to do that for someone else.

00:40:39.260 You know, Trump offering himself sort of as a human shield for some other guy so that he can take the reins.

00:40:47.240 That would be great if Trump would do that kind of thing, but Trump doesn't do those kinds of things.

00:40:53.980 So, um, no, I don't, I don't think that's the, I also, I don't think that Trump DeSantis, the Trump DeSantis thing is actually going to happen.

00:41:01.400 Because I don't think DeSantis would do that because it'd be a terrible idea for him.

00:41:04.540 But, uh, I also, I, I, I, your interpretation, I'm not sure I'd quite agree with.

00:41:07.820 So, Trail Price says, in your ideal world, you wouldn't have factory farms.

00:41:13.240 How do you define these factory farms and what exactly do you think they're getting wrong?

00:41:16.800 I have utmost respect for our farmers and ranchers.

00:41:19.260 They're the stewards of the environment and they take pride in producing high quality food and enjoy, uh, and, and enough to feed the world.

00:41:26.960 Well, that's why I said ideal world.

00:41:28.520 You know, and when you talk about Greta Thunberg or, or any of these environmentalists, um, they don't draw any distinction between an ideal world.

00:41:39.040 And first of all, a lot of their ideals I don't share.

00:41:40.940 In many cases, their ideal world is a dystopian nightmare.

00:41:45.280 But even some of their objectives that I agree with, they don't have any, any discernible practical plan for getting there.

00:41:52.860 I mean, the Green New Deal is a perfect example of that. 1.00

00:41:54.780 Most of the stuff that the Green New Deal wants to do is bad, but even the goals that could be good, there's no practical way of getting there.

00:42:03.460 So, that's what I'm talking, it's just totally, it's an ideal world.

00:42:05.700 In an ideal world, uh, yeah, it'd be, it'd be, we would have a lot of small kind of mom and pop farms and that's how we would be living and it'd be, it'd be a simple life and all of that.

00:42:16.100 I could see that as ideal, but that's just not the world we live in.

00:42:18.860 And again, we have 330 million people in this country who have to eat.

00:42:28.380 Um, and finally, a possum says, sometimes I wake up and realize I'm out of coffee and I still go to the grocery store in my PJs.

00:42:36.700 I feel no shame.

00:42:38.260 Well, you should feel shame.

00:42:39.220 Um, we, we have all done it.

00:42:42.720 I mean, we've all left the house looking like slobs, not bothering to get changed, but you should feel shame about it.

00:42:49.380 I think we all spend, uh, way too much time sitting.

00:42:53.660 We can all agree with that.

00:42:54.840 And sometimes our job requires us to do quite a lot of sitting.

00:42:58.020 Um, but if you've got to sit this much, you should really think about the kind of chair, uh, you're sitting in.

00:43:03.700 It can make a lot of health, not a lot of a difference, not only to your, to your, uh, to your comfort, but also to your health.

00:43:08.500 And that's why you need X chair.

00:43:09.840 X chair has you covered for your office chair needs.

00:43:18.280 But now thanks to their X HMT technology, you get heat and massage therapy while you're just sitting at your desk, uh, instead of your old, uncomfortable office chair that has, uh, probably doesn't have heat and massage therapy.

00:44:13.200 That's what I'm so excited about, which is why it's crucial that you don't miss any of it.

00:44:16.460 It might seem like a tall order, but it's actually pretty easy to keep up when you have the daily wire app on you at all times.

00:44:23.120 It's where you'll find a genius political commentary, like my content, my podcast and my content and the other shows too, which are also almost as genius.

00:44:34.020 Uh, we also have new investigative journalism, which, uh, which I think is great.

00:44:37.320 I'm excited about that.

00:44:38.300 Big tech sports coverage from our writers as well.

00:44:40.500 Even if you're not a daily wire subscriber, you'll be the first to know what's trending with, uh, mobile notifications for the latest news and all of your favorite content, only a touch away.

00:44:49.480 So download the daily wire app and stay up to speed with the freshest conservative voices around, no matter where you are.

00:44:55.300 Now let's get to our daily cancellation.

00:45:00.780 Today we cancel national geographic.

00:45:02.500 I mean, really we could cancel national geographic simply for rebranding itself as Nat Geo a few years ago and shifting all of its television programming over into reality shows.

00:45:10.500 The national geographic channel should be nothing but nature documentaries and documentaries about primitive tribes, people in the Amazon.

00:45:17.540 That's all anyone ever wanted from national geographic.

00:45:20.600 They don't want whatever Nat Geo gives us now.

00:45:22.960 And what they give us now includes a heavy dose of far left racial propaganda.

00:45:27.040 Of course, the most recent and egregious example of this is something called the race card project, which the company recently unveiled to give you an idea of the tone and tenor of this thing.

00:45:36.680 The editor of national geographic Susan Goldberg recently sent out a mass email to readers promoting the project and she signed the email quote sincerely Susan Goldberg editor in chief national geographic race card white privileged with much to learn.

00:45:52.400 So here she is literally playing the race card, but for a white person playing the race card means apologizing.

00:45:59.840 Non-white people can play the race card in order to gain sympathy and privilege. 0.99

00:46:04.540 White people can play it in order to be further demeaned and degraded. 0.97

00:46:07.740 And as we've discovered, many white people in this country have a masochistic fetish for that sort of thing. 0.96

00:46:12.540 So they're more than happy to play the card and accept that treatment.

00:46:15.460 As for the race card project itself, Nat Geo rolled it out on Twitter and here's what it says.

00:46:22.440 It says, 10 years ago, Michelle Norris launched the race card project, which asks people to describe their feelings on race in just six words.

00:46:30.220 She thought few would respond.

00:46:31.920 Here are some of the responses out of half a million so far that she's received.

00:46:35.520 And from there, Nat Geo highlights several people of different races who describe their lived experience, to use the leftist term, in six words.

00:46:44.480 We'll go through some of these that they highlight.

00:46:48.580 First, we have a black man, Asias Maritab, who says, black boy, white world, perpetually exhausted.

00:46:56.500 And we're told that his parents came here from Ethiopia, and you'd think that he'd be quite grateful to be in this country, living a life of comparative luxury and privilege, and not in Ethiopia. 0.99

00:47:05.860 But no, he's exhausted.

00:47:07.520 So exhausted.

00:47:09.120 It's exhausting living in a first world country, well fed, with access to all of life's comforts and luxuries. 1.00

00:47:15.540 It's so exhausting.

00:47:17.480 Just exhausted all the time.

00:47:20.320 Then we have Mark Quarles, who's a black man, who chooses these six words.

00:47:24.500 With kids, I'm dad. 0.99

00:47:27.000 Alone, thug. 0.78

00:47:29.320 Also, there's Hannah Peoples, who says, I am not an exotic creature.

00:47:34.600 Hannah's not white, but we aren't told what her ethnic identity is.

00:47:38.060 Apparently, the fact that people can't look at her and immediately know her country of origin is its own form of persecution.

00:47:44.560 We're told, quote,

00:47:45.280 Hannah Peoples said that constant guessing game about her identity, as well as the harassment and unwanted attention she's received from creepy men, make her feel like a specimen. 0.68

00:47:55.280 Her six-word story was born of exasperation.

00:48:00.220 Exhausted.

00:48:01.420 Exasperated.

00:48:02.860 Then we have Gene Tagaban, who's a Native American, who says, Native Americans, America's invisible, invisible, invisible.

00:48:10.320 This one struck me as a little bit lazy.

00:48:13.920 I mean, he's given six words, and he can only think of three, so he repeats one three times.

00:48:19.100 So it's kind of like, Native Americans, America's invisible. 1.00

00:48:24.000 No, actually, you get six words.

00:48:25.120 Okay, well, then America's invisible, invisible, invisible.

00:48:30.760 There are a few white people featured, but compare their self-description with the descriptions offered by the minority participants.

00:48:37.880 White guy Daniel Robbins says, ashamed that accomplished minorities surprise me.

00:48:44.960 He's given six words to describe his experience as a white man, and one of the six he chooses is ashamed.

00:48:50.620 Same for Lindsay Heydrich, who's a white woman, who says, I'm ashamed for my ancestors' race.

00:48:58.560 Apparently, she had ancestors who were slave owners. 1.00

00:49:01.020 She's ashamed, not of their behavior, but of their race and her own.

00:49:08.200 The only commonality between all these responses is that everyone is dejected and sad and complaining.

00:49:15.040 They're all living in the most prosperous and freest country in world history.

00:49:18.640 They're all unimaginably privileged when compared to almost everyone else who has ever lived anywhere on Earth.

00:49:24.320 They're all clothed and fed and doing fine, and yet their perception of their experience is completely negative.

00:49:32.220 For the minority respondents, they're angry about the alleged persecution they suffer at the hands of whites,

00:49:38.240 although none of them can give a compelling example of persecution.

00:49:40.840 One of them is annoyed because people can't guess her ethnicity on sight,

00:49:45.580 and the other guy's exhausted because although life is a hell of a lot better than it would be in Ethiopia, 0.51

00:49:50.200 it still isn't perfect, and the lack of a perfect life is exhausting. 0.93

00:49:55.000 Meanwhile, the white people are ashamed.

00:49:57.240 Ashamed of themselves, even though they can't really explain what they've done wrong. 0.80

00:50:00.500 So just think about this.

00:50:01.660 The minorities are sure that white people are doing them wrong, but can't explain how. 0.96

00:50:07.280 The white people are sure that they've done wrong, but can't explain what they've done wrong. 0.70

00:50:12.620 Everyone is sad. 0.97

00:50:13.880 Everyone is mad. 0.96

00:50:15.560 Only the white people are ashamed, and nobody knows why they feel any of this. 1.00

00:50:21.100 It's all quite sick and gross and perverse, 0.98

00:50:23.500 and it shows you to what extent many in the American public have been brainwashed. 0.81

00:50:28.940 This is one of the most telling signs of brainwashing.

00:50:31.320 When people hold firm, often self-destructive beliefs, but they can't explain why they hold those beliefs.

00:50:37.600 It also shows us that our culture is suffering from, I think, a cataclysmic crisis of meaning.

00:50:44.200 While our comfort has increased and our collective wealth and luxury has also increased,

00:50:50.060 we've turned from God.

00:50:51.220 We've turned from traditional faith, and we have found our lives empty and purposeless because of it.

00:50:56.620 I mean, that's the real reason why people are so sad and depressed and riddled with anxiety that they can't explain.

00:51:01.140 But the left's racial dogma gives people a framework for understanding that anxiety.

00:51:06.820 It's the wrong framework, but a person without meaning, a person without purpose,

00:51:12.320 will grasp on to anything that seems solid and intelligible, even if only superficially intelligible.

00:51:18.660 Because this is all the result of brainwashing, it's probably useless to engage with it intellectually,

00:51:24.420 but I will anyway, just on this one point. 0.84

00:51:28.700 The idea that white people should be ashamed of their whole race because of the past bad behaviors of some white people 0.99

00:51:36.040 is completely insane. 0.99

00:51:38.260 Even if white people were uniquely evil in history, 0.99

00:51:41.200 it still wouldn't make sense to be ashamed or apologetic for your race. 0.99

00:51:45.180 You don't inherit guilt and sin through skin pigment.

00:51:48.660 Your great-great-great-grandfather's sins are not your own,

00:51:52.240 even if his skin color is.

00:51:55.740 But as it happens, and this is very crucial to understand,

00:51:59.460 white people were most definitely not uniquely evil in history. 0.90

00:52:04.760 What, after all, are the evils that white people are supposed to be so ashamed about? 0.60

00:52:09.960 Slavery? 0.67

00:52:11.920 Conquest?

00:52:12.640 Genocide?

00:52:13.300 Racism?

00:52:14.560 Well, first of all, conquest isn't always a bad thing.

00:52:16.940 Sometimes it's a good thing for one civilization to be conquered by another.

00:52:20.820 I gave the example last week of the Aztecs, who themselves conquered and enslaved their tributary states 0.89

00:52:26.040 and forced them to provide fodder, often women and children, for human sacrifice. 0.74

00:52:29.100 There's a reason why, when the Spanish came here, they were able to easily enlist neighboring tribes to defeat the Aztecs.

00:52:37.280 Think about that.

00:52:38.300 You've got these strange creatures who have landed from an unknown land,

00:52:42.580 and the other Native American tribes.

00:52:47.900 Many of them easily, quickly fell in with the Spanish and said, 1.00

00:52:51.760 yeah, we want to help you take these people down.

00:52:55.020 Everyone hated the Aztecs because they were a brutal, murderous, dictatorial regime. 0.83

00:52:59.700 But the point is that, however you feel about conquest, whites did not invent it. 0.64

00:53:06.760 We didn't even introduce it to this side of the world.

00:53:10.280 White people didn't introduce slavery or racism either.

00:53:13.280 These are humanity's sins.

00:53:15.220 They've been practiced or committed by all people, everywhere, through all history.

00:53:19.680 The unique thing about the United States' relationship with slavery is that we abolished it in less than a century,

00:53:26.240 whereas some parts of the world, many of them non-white, took millennia to do the same.

00:53:30.620 Some people still have not effectively gotten rid of the practice.

00:53:34.100 As for racism, racism, again, is a foible of humanity, all humanity, across time.

00:53:42.840 And it is today far more prominent and far more accepted and far more mainstream in non-Western countries.

00:53:49.680 If white people should be ashamed, then everyone, everywhere, should be ashamed all the time.

00:53:58.240 Either that, or we can all move on with our lives. 0.61

00:54:02.520 And we can deal with the present.

00:54:04.460 And we can let the past remain where it belongs.

00:54:08.680 Whatever choice we make, as far as that goes,

00:54:11.620 the one choice that I certainly can make today, at least,

00:54:14.900 is to say to National Geographic,

00:54:16.940 you're canceled.

00:54:19.680 And we'll leave it there for today.
