00:00:00.000
Today on the Matt Wall Show, a ship named after the pederast Harvey Milk was christened by a
00:00:04.660
transgender Navy veteran over the weekend. It was a very encouraging and inspirational spectacle
00:00:08.400
to China. Also, eight people died during a rap concert is the performer to blame for that. And
00:00:13.540
the sports media is beside itself with outrage because Aaron Rodgers didn't get the COVID
00:00:18.480
vaccine. Plus, SNL looks for comedy and abortion and only succeeds in proving the opposite point
00:00:23.320
from what I think they were trying to prove. And our daily cancellation today will be once and for
00:00:27.440
all canceling equality. It's time and we have to do it. We'll do all of that and much more today on
00:00:32.180
the Matt Wall Show. You know, food prices are going up. Gas prices are going up. Prices for everything

00:01:55.540
shacking up with troubled teenage boys. One of his long-term boyfriends, and please note the air
00:02:00.560
quotes around that term, was 16 years old, mentally ill and suicidal. Milk was in his mid-30s at the time
00:02:06.860
of this relationship. Again, the air quotes. The gay rights hero preyed upon boys of this kind. He
00:02:13.040
brainwashed them. In fact, he had a real affinity for brainwashing as he was friends with and a defender
00:02:18.060
of cult leader Jim Jones, once writing a letter to Jimmy Carter describing Jones as a, quote,
00:02:23.980
man of the highest character. Milk had cult followers from the People's Temple working on
00:02:28.780
his campaign and most of them would go just a few months later to commit mass suicide at a compound
00:02:33.720
in South America. So that was Harvey Milk for you. But in spite of all this, in spite of Harvey Milk
00:02:39.900
being essentially the Kevin Spacey of his time, but creepier, we're meant to celebrate and honor him
00:02:45.740
because he advanced the gay rights cause. He was a martyr for the cause, we're told. Even though he
00:02:51.200
was murdered, and he was murdered, but he was murdered when he was a city supervisor by a
00:02:56.740
disgruntled employee for reasons that had nothing to do with homophobia. And the same guy also killed
00:03:01.940
the mayor, who was straight. And you never hear about the mayor. Poor guy. Nonetheless, Harvey Milk was gay
00:03:08.500
and he was killed. And that's enough to make him into the Jesus Christ of the gay rights movement,
00:03:13.300
a man who died for the homophobic sins of all mankind. Since then, the mythology of Harvey Milk,
00:03:20.140
again, the middle-aged man who sexually preyed upon high school boys, has grown and expanded and been
00:03:25.560
literally cemented into the public consciousness in the form of statues and memorials and all kinds of
00:03:29.640
things. A few years ago, the post office proudly unveiled its new commemorative Harvey Milk stamps.
00:03:35.400
And yesterday, a Navy ship, the USNS Harvey Milk, was christened in the San Diego harbor. And there
00:03:43.720
to do the honors was trans Navy veteran Paula Neera. Let's listen to that. Paula, would you please
00:03:49.920
christen the ship? In the name of the United States of America, I christen thee Harvey Milk. May God bless
00:03:59.520
the ship and all who sail in her. Okay, wonderful. And Paula there
00:04:21.260
sounds and looks just like a woman, right? Now, the good news is that the USNS Harvey Milk will
00:04:30.220
one day soon become a very inclusive and progressive coral reef at the bottom of the Pacific
00:04:35.180
when it's destroyed by China in our coming war. Indeed, on the same day that a biological male
00:04:40.280
named Paula was christening a ship named after a child molester, The Hill published an article
00:04:45.060
revealing that our government is unnerved, quote unquote, by China's growing military capabilities.
00:04:50.140
From the article, it says, America's defense establishment has watched threats from Beijing
00:04:53.860
rapidly grow in multiple areas, including recent hypersonic missile tests and expanding nuclear
00:04:58.360
arsenal, strides in space and cyber and seemingly daily threats to Taiwan. Quote, we're witnessing
00:05:04.140
one of the largest shifts in global geostrategic power the world has witnessed. Joint Chiefs of Staff
00:05:09.540
Chairman General Mark Milley said Wednesday when speaking about China's recent military advances.
00:05:14.000
Quote, they are clearly challenging us regionally and their aspiration is to challenge the United
00:05:17.760
States globally. A potential shift in the global balance of power is worrisome to US officials
00:05:23.000
and lawmakers. Yes, worrisome. So worrisome that the Defense Department is preparing us for this
00:05:29.140
inevitable confrontation with a world superpower by recruiting and promoting women, emphasizing
00:05:35.320
tolerance and diversity, and focusing on the threat posed by the, you know, 25 white nationalists
00:05:41.260
in the country. 23 of whom are federal agents, by the way. Worrisome indeed. But aside from the implosion
00:05:47.720
of our military, which is right now collapsing under the weight of its own wokeness, it says something
00:05:52.480
about our broader society that Harvey Milk is the kind of man we honor. You know, a person in San Diego,
00:05:59.820
a spectator in San Diego over the weekend might have witnessed the coronation of the Harvey Milk love
00:06:04.260
boat and then walked downtown to pay respects at the George Floyd Memorial. All in a day, you know,
00:06:10.340
nice, nice day out on the town. These are the sorts of people we pay tribute to now. A cult loving
00:06:16.140
pederast and a violent felon. And it's not just that both men were deeply flawed and guilty of horrific
00:06:21.660
evils, though they were, is that neither achieved anything tremendously significant in their lives.
00:06:27.780
And both are remembered today mainly because their deaths proved useful to the left.
00:06:32.400
They are victims and we are a culture which celebrates victimhood. Now, it would be bad enough
00:06:39.020
if we were just tearing down the Columbus statues and military memorials, just taking the founders
00:06:45.740
names off of schools and so on. If this was a general reaction against, quote unquote, problematic
00:06:52.360
historical figures, problematic because they were men and not angels, sinners and not gods.
00:06:57.340
And the end result was that we don't memorialize or honor or remember anyone out of an overabundance
00:07:04.640
of shame for our fallen nature and a belief that no man can possibly be worthy of such treatment and
00:07:09.840
death. If that was the case, it would be bad and it would be unhealthy and I would resist it,
00:07:15.960
but it wouldn't be nearly as bad as what is actually occurring. See, we're not experiencing
00:07:21.620
a simple erasure of history as much as a reordering of it. So we're not getting rid of Columbus,
00:07:28.820
Jefferson, and Washington. We're replacing them and all the rest of our traditional heroes as well.
00:07:33.840
When Mount Rushmore is finally blown to smithereens, and it will be, new faces will be carved on the
00:07:39.060
mountainside. It won't be left alone. The new faces of George Floyd, Harvey Milk. It's hard to know
00:07:45.580
who else will make the cut. I mean, the litmus test is that you must be worshipped by either
00:07:49.740
BLM or the LGBT lobby, and you must have a compelling victim story, whether the story is true or not,
00:07:57.280
and most of the time it isn't. It doesn't matter if you accomplished anything. Accomplishments of
00:08:01.720
anything are discouraged. Virtue is irrelevant also. So what we find is that all cultures need their
00:08:11.160
mythic heroes. That's a need for a culture. There's a reason why every human society since
00:08:17.320
the dawn of civilization, and possibly even before that, has built monuments to its ancestors.
00:08:23.160
It's an irresistible human impulse that we all have. We must have some idea about our past.
00:08:30.640
You know, we cannot live in a past-less, future-less void. We have to know where we've been. We have to
00:08:36.060
see the footsteps in the sand so that we know where to go. And what's true of individuals is also true
00:08:41.860
of societies. You become what you admire. And so recently, we followed the footsteps of great men
00:08:48.280
who achieved great things. And so we continued to produce more great men who would blaze a path for
00:08:54.620
the great men to come after them. But we don't care about greatness anymore. Actually, we hate it.
00:09:00.780
Our heroes now are Harvey Milk and George Floyd. That's who we admire, or are told to admire.
00:09:11.260
And so that's who we will become. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:09:23.480

00:10:40.740
great, a good, good weekend. At least good. Maybe not great. That's set the bar a little high, but at least
00:10:44.960
good. You had a pretty good weekend. I, on not to brag about being a great husband or anything, but
00:10:51.540
one of my anniversary gifts to my wife that I gave her was, uh, on Saturday, you know, I said,
00:10:57.080
go, I, I got her booked her a day at the spa and I told her to go to go to spa. She did. And so I took
00:11:03.600
over with all the kids and, um, you know, we, we, we had a lot of fun. We, for example, we just kind
00:11:11.920
of went into the garage to look for random things to, to play with. And we found, um, some old, uh,
00:11:19.360
plastic storage bins. And my, my kid said, can we take the plastic storage bins out back on the,
00:11:24.040
on the grassy hill and try to sled down the grass in the storage bins. And so that, that was like
00:11:28.700
two and a half hours of fun. Um, and the other thing we did is we played hide and seek and I play
00:11:34.340
hide and seek with my kids all the time. Um, and, and, and, and, you know, up until now, the thing I
00:11:42.800
liked about playing hide and seek with my kids is that I always win. And I wouldn't, and I'm, I'm,
00:11:46.440
it might not surprise you to learn. I'm not one of those dads that lets the kids win that like
00:11:51.020
you're, I'm not gonna let you win. You got to beat me. And so I'm probably like 200 up until today,
00:11:56.840
up until this weekend, I was 200. No, as a, as a, as a hide and seek player against my kids,
00:12:01.560
but now they've gotten older and they're playing the game on a more psychological level.
00:12:07.200
So it was my turn to hide and I was hiding. So I picked a, I picked a great hiding spot.
00:12:12.120
I'd already planned it out. I was in this great hiding spot. They were never going to find me.
00:12:15.100
And then I hear this, this loud bang down in the, uh, down in the living room.
00:12:21.500
And my son starts screaming out that he's hurt himself. He's like screaming and crying. I hurt
00:12:26.160
myself. And so I come running out to check on him and he says, ha ha, just kidding. So he,
00:12:32.140
he was pretending to hurt himself to flush me out of my hiding spot. And I thought you little,
00:12:38.900
this, this is, I'm here playing checkers and now you're playing 40 chess.
00:12:43.780
That's, that's, that's psychological warfare. And I fell for it. And then they tried it again.
00:12:49.640
The next time I was hiding, they went in the kitchen and started banging around and saying,
00:12:53.220
daddy, we're playing with the knives. That time I did not come out. I was, I was wagering that they
00:12:59.860
were just kidding about playing with the butcher knives. Unfortunately they were, but even if they
00:13:03.100
weren't, that was a risk I was willing to take. All right. We'll start with this from the Daily
00:13:08.740
Wire. It says a sold out Houston music festival attended by an estimated 50,000 people turned
00:13:13.740
deadly on Friday night after a headliner began to perform. The Associated Press reported the crowd
00:13:18.740
gathered for the two day event in NRG park at Astroworld. Uh, they suddenly surged toward the stage
00:13:24.860
during a performance by rapper Travis Scott. And he was not just the performer at this, uh,
00:13:29.580
Astroworld event. This it's his event. He puts the event on, I believe he has an album named called
00:13:34.640
Astroworld. So this is, this is his event that he puts on. And, um, it says, quote, they started
00:13:40.600
surging towards the stage, squeezing fans so tightly together that they could not breathe or move their
00:13:44.940
arms and killing eight people in the chaos, hospitalizing several others. According to the
00:13:50.900
outlet, as a timer clicked down to start the performance, the crowd pushed forward. Uh, Nick Johnson,
00:13:57.220
a high school student who attended the concert, told the AP, everyone was passing out around you.
00:14:01.320
Everyone was trying to help each other, but you couldn't move. You couldn't do anything. You can't
00:14:04.960
even pick your arms up. It just got worse and worse. Now keep in mind, eight people.
00:14:11.480
And I mean, this is, this has been a pretty big story in the news. I don't know how it's not a
00:14:15.500
bigger story than, than, than it's being treated. Eight people, mostly kids died at a concert.
00:14:23.840
But remember, you know, uh, prior to, to this, what I think was considered the deadliest and most, um,
00:14:34.800
catastrophic music festival ever was Woodstock 99. Um, and, uh, and in that, I, I believe that was
00:14:42.340
like a two or three day festival. There was a hundred, 200,000 people there and three or four
00:14:47.220
people died. And it was a big deal at the time. I can remember it distinctly. Yeah. Three or four
00:14:52.760
deaths with that many people. This is eight people in a crowd of 50,000 and a span of a
00:15:00.680
couple hours died. Uh, officials caught off the event about 40 minutes after law enforcement
00:15:06.820
observed concerts, concert goers going down. Authorities said a mass casualty incident had
00:15:12.240
occurred at 9 38 PM. According to the Houston Chronicle, concert attendees said Scott appeared
00:15:16.580
to play his whole set and finished at 10 15 PM. And, uh, Travis Scott is, uh, the boyfriend or
00:15:24.060
whatever. I don't think they're married of Kylie Jenner, one of the Kardashians. Um, there, there's,
00:15:32.520
there are a lot of weird reports coming out of this concert and I don't know how much of it is true or
00:15:38.280
not. One thing that you heard early on, kind of the rumor circulating online is that people were
00:15:43.920
being injected with some unknown substance. And this has been at least partially confirmed. There
00:15:48.380
was, there was a security guard who was briefly rendered unconscious after feeling a prick on his
00:15:55.780
neck. And then he was, they, they woke him up and they found markings where he had been injected by
00:16:01.020
somebody. And there were also reports of many, uh, at least several people going into cardiac arrest.
00:16:10.480
It's not clear if that happened during this surge or before it, or if it had something to do with
00:16:16.120
what sparked it to begin with, but you had people being injected with drugs, apparently other people
00:16:21.380
being trampled to death. And the videos that you see online now, and I'm not going to play them,
00:16:28.680
but you can go, you can go find these videos. There's many of them circulating. Travis Scott is up
00:16:33.660
there continuing the performance. Now, early on, I read reports saying that he stopped,
00:16:39.140
he stopped multiple times to try to tell the crowd to back up. That was the report. Anyway,
00:16:43.520
that's the claim. I have not seen any videos of Travis Scott stopping the concert. Doesn't mean he
00:16:49.820
didn't do it. I haven't seen those videos. The videos I've seen show Travis Scott up on the stage
00:16:56.240
while there are kids collapsing all around and medics rushing into the crowd. And he's, he's continuing to
00:17:01.800
perform. But now he says that he's very upset about it. And, uh, and he put out a kind of a statement
00:17:07.920
on Instagram the next day talking about how devastated he is. And, uh, I don't know, you
00:17:15.880
watch this and tell me if you find it to be sincere. I just want to send out prayers to the,
00:17:22.380
to the ones that was lost last night. We're actually working right now to identify the families
00:17:31.120
so we can help assist them through this tough time. You know, my fans, my fans, like my fans
00:17:38.440
really mean the world to me. And I always just really want to leave them with a positive experience.
00:17:44.240
And anytime I can make out, you know, anything that's going on, you know, you know, I stop the
00:17:50.420
show and, you know, help them get the help they need. You know, um, I could just never imagine the
00:17:57.720
severity of the situation. Yeah. I find the, his reaction somewhat unsettling. I don't, I don't
00:18:06.400
really, eight people just died in front of you, man, at your concert. Eight kids were just trampled
00:18:16.600
to death. And this is, this is his reaction. It sounds like he's, you know, it's, this sounds
00:18:22.440
like the kind of statement that you have if, uh, if you had to cancel a concert or something
00:18:26.360
because something happened and people were, you know, and you had to issue a bunch of refunds
00:18:31.060
and people were inconvenienced. And so I could see that. Yeah. Really, really sorry about
00:18:37.200
that. Uh, you know, really, really, really unfortunate. When I watch that, especially as
00:18:43.520
he's right, it's not taking his hands off his head the entire time. That's kind of a tell
00:18:46.960
also that someone's not being entirely sincere. You know, they keep rubbing their face and everything.
00:18:52.120
So he's got all those tells, but it's, it's, and he does it in black and white. He takes
00:18:56.380
the time to change the filter on it to make it black and white. This is someone that seems
00:19:00.360
to me trying to seem devastated and saying that they're devastated, but it doesn't really
00:19:06.380
seem that way to me. One thing you have to remember about Travis Scott, some background
00:19:10.820
on this guy is that he has a history of riling up the crowd at his concerts, intentionally
00:19:18.620
encouraging them to rush through security barricades. Now, I don't know if he did that
00:19:23.360
during this concert, but he has a history of doing that. I've read some accounts from
00:19:28.760
security guards who've worked Travis Scott concerts and how he'll kind of turn against
00:19:34.180
them during the concert and encourage fans to bum rush them. There's another video very
00:19:40.980
disturbing from a few years ago where, where he was, uh, Travis Scott was crowd surfing and
00:19:46.320
some kid in the, and he looked like he was 14 or 15 years old, maybe younger. Some kid
00:19:50.580
grabs his shoe. I don't know if intentionally or not. And then Travis Scott loses his mind
00:19:56.120
on this kid and starts calling for the crowd to, you know, F him up and to beat the kid up
00:20:01.340
for taking his shoe. Enlisting a crowd of people who are, many of them are already drunk on drugs.
00:20:09.800
They're kind of out of their minds because that's, that's the environment at these kinds of
00:20:13.660
concerts. It's an environment intentionally designed to make people sort of lose their senses.
00:20:22.160
And he's sicking this, this mob on this kid because it took a shoe. Meanwhile, I'm sure this
00:20:27.300
guy has 500 pairs of shoes at his house along with a couple dozen backstage for all of his outfit
00:20:33.860
changes, wardrobe changes. So that's the kind of guy he is. Um, which means I put all that together
00:20:41.940
and I, you know, I put this on him. I don't know how I put this on him at least to the extent that
00:20:48.640
you blame Alec Baldwin for shooting the cinematographer. I mean, it wasn't just his fault.
00:20:57.960
There were other people involved, but you're the one holding the gun and you didn't check it.
00:21:03.280
And so this falls on you, Travis Scott, this is your concert. It's up to make you to make sure
00:21:09.780
everything is safe. At the very least, if eight people die, it means that this was a massive
00:21:16.220
failure in planning and logistics and making sure you had enough security there. And that goes to you.
00:21:22.740
You throw an event and eight people die because at a minimum, because, because of poor planning.
00:21:32.480
Yeah. This guy should be arrested and charged already. Shouldn't even be a discussion.
00:21:37.980
And then you add into that all the, you see some of the pictures from the,
00:21:41.660
from the event and you hear some of the accounts and there's a lot of just weird satanic imagery
00:21:47.080
everywhere. I was listening to one account from a girl that was there saying that it was just,
00:21:51.960
and she's not, she said that she's not religious, but it felt weird and satanic even to her,
00:21:57.280
even the kind of music they were playing. And all of this stuff is designed to make, as I said,
00:22:03.780
it kind of makes people lose their senses, lose their mind in a certain way. And it's designed to
00:22:11.780
have that effect. And then you add in all the drugs and everything, even more so.
00:22:17.080
Um, all right, let's move on to this. Aaron Rogers, the quarterback of the Green Bay Packers got COVID
00:22:27.360
and the assumption immediately, once he was diagnosed with COVID as well, well, that means
00:22:33.040
that he wasn't vaccinated, which that's not a safe assumption because we know that vaccinated
00:22:37.900
people get COVID all the time. In this case, it turns out that, yeah, he wasn't vaccinated. Now he
00:22:41.760
had previously said earlier or before the season, when he was asked about it, he said that he'd been
00:22:46.340
immunized, but, um, he didn't specifically say that he got the vaccine. Everyone took that to
00:22:52.240
mean that he got the vaccine. And now it turns out that he didn't, he admitted that he didn't get it.
00:22:57.320
And this has made the media very, very upset at Aaron Rogers. He is public enemy number one
00:23:02.000
in sports. And so if you watch football yesterday or over the weekend, you saw a lot of segments like
00:23:09.000
this. Here's Terry Bradshaw, former quarterback himself in the NFL, now a NFL commentator. Um,
00:23:14.360
here he is addressing Aaron Rogers and, and Terry Bradshaw is like on the verge of tears because
00:23:19.100
Aaron Rogers didn't get vaccinated. Let's listen to this. I'd give Aaron Rogers some advice. It
00:23:24.900
would have been nice if he had just come to the Naval Academy and learn how to be honest. Yeah.
00:23:33.260
Learn not to lie because that's what you did, Aaron. You lied to everyone. I understand immunized.
00:23:39.500
What you were doing was taking stuff that would keep you from getting COVID-19. You got COVID-19.
00:23:45.480
Ivermectin is a cattle dewormer. Sorry folks. That's what it is. We are a divided nation politically.
00:23:51.240
We're divided nation on the COVID-19, whether or not to take the vaccine. And unfortunately,
00:23:55.600
we've got players that pretty much think only about themselves. And I'm extremely disappointed
00:24:02.820
I'm not mad. I'm disappointed. You lied to us, Aaron. You lied to us. Uh, do you think maybe
00:24:10.360
if he did lie and I'm not saying I necessarily agree with that characterization, but if he did,
00:24:15.000
maybe it's because you're not owed the truth, Terry Bradshaw, why should you be told?
00:24:22.240
If I, if I lie to you about my medical history, it's because you have no business knowing that.
00:24:28.120
If someone on the street comes up to me and says, Hey, have you, have you taken this drug or got
00:24:33.600
this medicine? I could say whatever I want. Sure. I took it. You don't have any moral right to be
00:24:39.760
angry. If you find out that I wasn't telling the truth later, you lied to me. Well, how it's none
00:24:43.680
of your business. Why are you asking the question? Why is it Terry Bradshaw's business? Whether Aaron
00:24:50.820
Rogers got the vaccine, we're so accustomed to this now to demanding that people reveal their
00:24:59.180
medical history, at least as a, as it concerns COVID that many people have come to see this as,
00:25:05.400
as normal. It's not, it's none of your damn business. If Aaron Rogers lied to me as a member
00:25:12.680
of the public about his vaccination status, I don't care because I don't care if he got the vaccine or
00:25:18.500
not to begin with. Okay. The thing about, um, the thing about the truth is that given the,
00:25:29.600
the circumstance, you're not always owed the truth. Like there are private pieces of information
00:25:34.860
about a person's life and their history and the things they do with their body where that's,
00:25:40.600
that's not a truth that you're owed. They don't owe that truth to you.
00:25:44.340
Now, whether that justifies lying, well, that's a whole ethical, interesting debate that we can
00:25:51.780
have, but you certainly are not. Terry Bradshaw is not owed that piece of information.
00:25:58.440
And meanwhile, you can't help but make the comparison here because Aaron Rogers is getting
00:26:05.200
killed by sports media right now. And you also have to understand that this is,
00:26:09.240
it, it, it's pretty rare for them to do it. It takes, it usually takes a lot
00:26:14.520
for N for NFL commentators and for ESPN to go after the most high profile stars. And one of the
00:26:24.480
reasons why they usually don't do it is because they're all friends. And so it's awkward. And so
00:26:29.040
that's, that's why they don't criticize each other, but also because these are, you know,
00:26:33.080
Aaron Rogers makes Terry Bradshaw a lot of money because he's an NFL commentator and people tune
00:26:41.540
in, people don't tune in to, to hear NFL commentators for them. If people are interested
00:26:46.900
in football, then they're going to be interested in what the commentators have to say. Aaron Rogers
00:26:52.240
is one of the guys that makes people interested in football. So he's a highly bankable star. He makes
00:26:57.180
a lot of money for all these people. They all know him and are friends with him. And, uh, and so
00:27:01.800
normally they let a lot slide. It is pretty unusual to hear something like what you just heard.
00:27:13.260
It's so unusual that, um, when another NFL superstar quarterback by the name of Deshaun Watson of the
00:27:20.820
Houston Texans, when he was accused of rape by like 20 women or more than 20 women, we have not seen
00:27:30.520
any moments like what you just saw there with Terry Bradshaw. They talk, it's, it is discussed a little
00:27:36.200
bit and they're very circumspect about it. And they say, well, we got to do the investigation and
00:27:41.860
we'll see this and that. And there haven't been any moments like that. Um, Henry Ruggs is a NFL wide
00:27:53.360
receiver of the Las Vegas Raiders. Last weekend, he got drunk and drove his car 156 miles an hour
00:28:03.420
and slammed into another car and killed somebody. And there were no moments like that.
00:28:12.620
So the sports media are far, far, far more angry at Aaron Rogers for not getting the COVID vaccine
00:28:20.020
than they are at Deshaun Watson for raping 20 women, allegedly. And we've got to throw the allegedly
00:28:25.540
on that, except that there's again, like 20 women have come out against him. All of them massage
00:28:30.440
therapists and all of them telling basically the same story. And when that happens, I think you could
00:28:35.460
basically drop the allegedly. Okay. Now you've got, it's, it's 20 to one and they're all telling the
00:28:40.520
same story. There's a, there's a real pattern here. Um, so Deshaun Watson allegedly raping, uh, 20
00:28:46.440
women, Henry Ruggs killing somebody last week, but sports media far, far, far more angry at Aaron
00:28:54.180
Rogers for not getting the COVID vaccine. And before anyone attempts some desperate maneuvering
00:29:04.220
here by, by saying, well, you, Aaron Rogers could kill, he could, he could kill way more than just
00:29:11.260
one person by not getting the vaccine. Except that if you're vaccinated, as we've said a million
00:29:19.460
times, if you are vaccinated and you trust the vaccine, then you shouldn't have to worry about
00:29:28.040
Aaron Rogers infecting you unless the vaccine doesn't work. In which case, why should Aaron
00:29:33.800
Rogers get it? And if you're not vaccinated, then that's a choice you've made. That's a risk you've
00:29:38.460
decided to take. And you still can't get mad at Aaron Rogers. So no matter what, there's, there's
00:29:42.760
no grounds to be mad at Aaron Rogers unless you're trying to be an ethical purist here. And, and the
00:29:50.900
reason you're angry is that he lied to us. Yeah. He lied to you. Deshaun Watson raped 20 women. So
00:29:59.220
I don't know. You decide, you decide who, who we should be taking a task here more. Um, staying
00:30:05.240
on the vaccine subject, white house chief of staff, Ron Klain, uh, trying to justify the
00:30:12.140
vaccine mandate made a, a, a very interesting by interesting, I mean, stupid analogy. Let's
00:30:17.820
listen. I'm quite confident that when this finally gets fully adjudicated, not just a temporary
00:30:22.900
order, uh, the, the validity of this requirement will be upheld. It's common sense, Chuck. If OSHA
00:30:28.820
can tell people to wear a hard, hard hat on the job, to be careful on chemicals, it can
00:30:34.200
put, put, put in place these simple measures to keep our workers safe. We will find out
00:30:41.080
A hard hat. Okay. Ron, let me explain a few differences here. First of all, um, if you are
00:30:49.820
working a construction site, then most likely you're a relatively young male and most likely
00:30:57.920
you're in pretty good physical shape, which means that COVID poses very, very little risk to you.
00:31:04.960
However, a large object falling on your head, even if you are a young physically fit man,
00:31:11.720
um, that will still kill you or at least cause brain damage. So on a construction site,
00:31:17.360
the risk from a falling object is much, much, much, much greater than the risk of COVID.
00:31:23.820
So that's one of the reasons why you wear a hard hat. Also, the other thing about a hard hat is,
00:31:27.180
you put it on your body and then you could take it off. It's not a substance you inject into your
00:31:34.060
body. Now, Ron Klain, just looking at him and his physique doesn't strike me as the kind of guy
00:31:39.920
who's done a lot of construction or spent a lot of time outside. Um, so maybe he doesn't really
00:31:45.840
understand how hard hats work, but that's what they are. It's a hat that you put on, you can put
00:31:49.400
take it right back off. Um, so this is not a requirement that people inject a substance into
00:31:57.660
their body. A hard hat serves a certain purpose. And you know the thing about a hard hat? No side
00:32:04.460
effects that you have to worry about. None at all. You don't have to worry about any long-term side
00:32:09.140
effects, any short-term. It gives you hat hair. Okay. So that's the side effect of a,
00:32:14.400
of a, of a, uh, hard hat is that it gives you hat hair and your, your hair looks a little bit weird
00:32:19.020
when you take it off. That's the side effect. As opposed to any, any drug that you put in your
00:32:24.000
body, there are going to be many more significant side effects than that, potentially for any drug
00:32:28.660
that you take to include the COVID vaccine. Um, but this is, they've, they've been grappling
00:32:38.740
around for analogies. Really this whole, this whole time, hard hat, or a lot of times you'll
00:32:44.900
hear the, well, it's like wearing a seatbelt thing, but there's no analogy that they can,
00:32:50.160
none of the analogies work because all the analogies they reach for, they're looking at,
00:32:55.660
you know, temporary minor measures where you're doing something, you're taking a safety measure
00:33:01.080
for a specific purpose. Um, and the amount that it mitigates your risk is a measurable thing. And
00:33:08.440
it's just, it's not analogous to taking a drug and especially to the government forcing you to take
00:33:14.320
a drug. One other clip I want to play kind of on the same, um, point here. Do we even have this?
00:33:23.700
I think we do. Oh yeah, we do. Rochelle Walensky. She's the CDC director. And, um, as we, you know,
00:33:30.000
get into flu season and everything, now she's suggesting that, Hey, even if you're not worried
00:33:35.900
about COVID, maybe you should still wear the mask for the sake of, uh, protecting yourself against
00:33:39.580
the flu. The evidence is clear. Masks can help prevent the spread of COVID-19 by reducing your
00:33:52.980
chance of infection by more than 80%. Whether it's an infection from the flu, from the coronavirus,
00:33:59.000
or even just the common cold. In combination with other steps, like getting your vaccination,
00:34:05.740
hand-washing, and keeping physical distance, wearing your mask is an important step you can
00:34:11.080
take to keep us all healthy. Get vaccine facts. We can do this. Okay, cool. So just wear the vaccine
00:34:20.580
or wear the, uh, the mask until we've cured the common cold, and then you'll be good to take it
00:34:25.480
off. Why didn't the CDC ever suggest this before? Did Rachel Walensky and the CDC, did they just
00:34:33.140
discover that the cold exists, uh, or that the flu exists? Did they, the existence of viruses that can
00:34:40.600
be transmitted through the air? Have they, have they just discovered that? Or did they just now
00:34:46.480
realize that masks, you know, did they not know about medical masks in the past?
00:34:54.280
If it's a simple, no big deal measure, um, why was it never suggested before COVID?
00:35:05.920
But this was a conspiracy theory before, remember? If I suggested, or you suggested, as many of us did,
00:35:12.620
predicted that the mask, this is going to become a, a, a lifestyle that is, that they're going to try
00:35:23.020
to impose on us from the top permanently, where you have to cover your face forever, because COVID
00:35:32.320
is all of the reasons given for wearing a mask because of COVID, all of those reasons apply to
00:35:38.820
the cold and they apply to the flu and everything else. And if they were making that argument for
00:35:44.820
that, then they're going to say, they're going to say it to the flu and they're going to say it for
00:35:47.780
the, for, for the cold. Only when we made that argument in the past, up until right now, that
00:35:52.840
was a conspiracy theory. And now you have the CDC coming out and saying exactly that. So that's the
00:35:57.040
way it always works. All right, next SNL, um, had some hilarious abortion content on Saturday night.
00:36:04.580
It's from the report from the Daily Beast. It says Saturday, Saturday Night Live's weekend update had
00:36:09.680
a lot of ground to cover this week, especially given that Ice Cube, a celebrity whom Kenan
00:36:13.460
Thompson has perfectly impersonated before, lost out on a, uh, nine million dollar acting gig in the
00:36:18.520
Sony, Sony comedy, Oh Hell No, because he refused to get vaccinated. Okay, but who cares? Um, skipping
00:36:23.800
ahead. It says the real standout was, and this is an article that's, they're very much impressed with
00:36:28.980
this bit. They're taking a positive view of it. The real standout was Goober, a clown played by
00:36:33.640
Cecilie Strong and styled to look a lot like Lunette from the children's series, The Big Comfy Couch.
00:36:39.220
The reason for her appearance, to respond to the stringent Texan law that effectively bans abortion
00:36:44.160
after six weeks, because just one day before she turned 23, she had a clown abortion. So that's the
00:36:51.380
character. She is a clown who had an abortion, and, um, this is supposed to be funny. Let's watch a little
00:36:58.960
bit and find out if it is. The Supreme Court heard arguments this week in Women's Whole Health
00:37:04.840
v. Texas about the controversial Texas law that essentially bans all abortions after just six
00:37:10.080
weeks. Here to cheer us up, well, this can't be right, Goober the Clown, who had an abortion when
00:37:15.560
she was 23. Hey, hey, hey, I'm Goober the Clown. So, Goober, you had an abortion when you were 23?
00:37:25.020
Hey, whoa, slow down. I'm a clown. Let's clown around. Hey, smell this flower. You're not going to
00:37:30.900
squirt me, are you? Oh, I would never. Okay. Oh, gotcha, gotcha. I had an abortion the day before my 23rd
00:37:38.580
birthday. Okay. It, it seems like you do want to talk about your abortion. Well, actually, I really
00:37:44.660
don't, but people keep bringing it up, so I got to keep talking about freaking abortion, but it's a
00:37:49.660
rough subject, so we're going to do fun clown stuff to make it more palatable. Whee! Hey, who wants a
00:37:56.520
balloon animal? You want a giraffe? Jay? You don't have to do this, Cecily. Cecily, I'm Goober, and I wish I
00:38:06.540
didn't have to do this, because the abortion I had at 23 is my personal clown business, but that's all
00:38:11.940
some people in this country want to discuss all the time, even though clown abortion was legalized
00:38:17.000
in Clown v. Wade in 1973 here. Hmm. I mean, as always with SNL, the most offensive thing about it
00:38:27.100
by far is that it's supposed to be a comedy show, and it's just not funny at all. I, it's certainly,
00:38:34.060
I'd have to acknowledge, there's a real challenge when you're trying to make a funny joke about the
00:38:39.200
slaughter of 60 million children. That's not an easy thing to do. I'm not sure that there are any
00:38:44.000
funny jokes you can make about it, but that definitely wasn't it. Um, and in, you know,
00:38:52.840
we hear from, from the, from the Goober, the Clown, and this is what we always hear. This is the,
00:38:59.120
the line we always hear from pro-abortion, especially the feminists. Well, I don't want to talk about,
00:39:03.220
why do you guys keep talking about abortion? No, but, but you, you do want to talk about it.
00:39:07.920
That's all feminists ever do is talk about their abortions. Like they want, they walk through the
00:39:11.200
street shouting, I got an abortion, everyone. I got an abortion. Let me tell you about my abortion.
00:39:17.840
But then as always, if you say, well, you know, I really don't think you should have got that
00:39:21.240
abortion. That's not a good thing. Why are you talking about my abortion? This is my business.
00:39:24.900
Why are you so obsessed with it? Why are you obsessed with my body?
00:39:27.540
I'm not even, I'm not sure even what point they were, were trying to reach here because
00:39:35.580
I take two points away from it, from this bit. One, the most direct thing, the most obvious
00:39:40.860
implication here is that abortion advocates are clowns. And I agree with that. Um, but then there's
00:39:48.040
also, you know, what you find here is this kind of classic image of the, uh, you know, the,
00:39:55.240
the tears of the clown, right? The clown who puts on this kind of wacky persona and they
00:40:00.240
put the wig on, they put the nose on and everything, but they're hiding their deep despair. That's
00:40:04.280
the classic image of, of the clown. And that is in fact, what lots of post-abortive women
00:40:11.660
do, especially post-abortive women who are shouting their abortions, the feminists, the probe,
00:40:18.860
the abortion advocates. Okay. You spend any time around, you go to a conference of, of, you
00:40:25.840
know, a feminist conference, Planned Parenthood or something. I wouldn't recommend it, but
00:40:32.280
you're going to find nothing but the, but goober the clown there, a bunch of goobers running
00:40:36.360
around, all of them talking about how great it is that they got an abortion, how happy they
00:40:42.520
are about their abortions. Isn't it so wonderful? But this is an act of massive overcompensation.
00:40:53.800
They're trying to hide the, the deep despair and loneliness that they feel.
00:41:00.740
So is that, was that the point? Is that what they were? I don't think that's what they were
00:41:06.560
reaching for, but that's, it's actually a very good point. And in some ways, it's kind
00:41:12.680
of a powerful bit, but in exactly the opposite way that they intended. Abortion advocates are
00:41:19.780
clowns in general. And yes, this is what, this is what a lot of these feminists do. They've
00:41:26.800
got the, you know, it's kind of like the, the, the classic meme that you see online of
00:41:30.800
the guy holding up the smiley mask, but behind it, he's crying. That's, that's it right
00:41:35.260
there. That's, that is feminism, especially feminism when it comes to abortion advocacy.
00:41:45.800
Because there's really no way, despite how they try to fool themselves and the rationalizations
00:41:51.640
that they come up with, you know, there's, there's just nobody who, especially as they
00:41:59.960
get older and they get to the end of their life, I can tell you this, there's not a single
00:42:04.200
feminist on their deathbed who had an abortion or one or two or three or five abortions or
00:42:10.180
whatever, who's going to be lying there on their deathbed and saying, oh man, I am so
00:42:14.760
glad I got that abortion. Thank God I got that abortion. Thank God I'm not leaving any progeny
00:42:19.140
behind. Thank God I'm leaving no legacy. Thank God I'm laying here alone with no one to mourn
00:42:25.720
me because the only people who would have mourned me, I killed. I can guarantee you there's
00:42:32.060
not one single feminist saying that. That's all. It's always a good litmus test. It's a
00:42:41.720
good way to decide if you're making the right choice or not is to just imagine, okay, I make
00:42:47.460
this choice 50 years from now or 60 years from now, hopefully if it's that long and I'm laying
00:42:52.820
on my deathbed, am I going to be happy about this choice that I'm making right now? And
00:42:58.880
if the answer is obviously no, then probably not a good choice to make. You know, there's
00:43:08.300
a lot of women who have, and it's certainly in the future, just generations of women who
00:43:14.560
are going to die alone with no one to love them, leaving no legacy behind, leaving no
00:43:20.860
imprint on the world at all. It's pretty sad. I'd say that is a very sad thing. All right,
00:43:28.700
let's finally finish with this a little bit, a little bit more lighthearted. This is from
00:43:33.240
the Daily Mail. It says, this is the report anyway. Again, I report, you decide, okay? It
00:43:40.600
says, he's supposed to be committed to reducing emissions, but when President Joe Biden produced
00:43:44.860
a little natural gas of his own at the COP26 summit, it was audible enough to make the Duchess
00:43:50.560
of Cornwall blush. An informed source has told the Mail on Sunday that Camilla was taken aback
00:43:57.400
to hear Biden break wind as they made polite small talk at the global climate change gathering
00:44:02.740
last week. The source said, quote, it was long and loud and impossible to ignore. Camilla hasn't
00:44:09.220
stopped talking about it. So, you know, I don't, I don't know what's going on. It's almost
00:44:14.680
like we, it's almost like there's a 78 year old man in office. I'm not sure, but he's, this
00:44:19.400
guy, according to the reports anyway, he's, he's just and farting all over Europe. It's a
00:44:27.440
real problem here, especially with, you know, with, with pollution being the problem, being,
00:44:34.300
being as bad as it is. He's, he has crop dusted all of Europe. What, what's, what's happening?
00:44:44.800
Well, again, I know what's happening. He's a, he's an old man and there's no way like there's
00:44:50.880
no, there's no, and I'm just trying to imagine, first of all, I need to know more about this.
00:44:54.680
Okay. Because even in the Daily Mail report, I read the whole report with great interest and
00:44:59.720
then it kind of moves on and it talks about the climate change. It doesn't, it doesn't give
00:45:02.420
us any more information. I need to know more because Joe Biden is standing there allegedly
00:45:07.740
and he lets out this massive fart that goes on for minutes. Apparently does, is there a
00:45:13.780
pause in the conversation or does he blow through it and keep talking, pretending that it's not
00:45:19.480
happening? Is there any acknowledgement of the fart after the fact? It sounds like he does
00:45:26.900
this a lot. You know, hopefully he's, he's kind of got accustomed. He knows what, what tactics
00:45:31.780
to use to distract from what's just happened. I don't know. A lot more information that
00:45:36.680
we need, but this, this just makes us proud as Americans, doesn't it? No, one, one weekend
00:45:45.580
he poops his pants in front of the Pope. Allegedly the very next weekend he's farting in front
00:45:52.060
of the Duchess of Cornwall of all people. Makes me very proud to be an American. All right.
00:46:08.600
Jim says, I'd like Matt to acknowledge that he occupied stolen land in Loudoun County
00:46:14.720
in that lady's basement. That's that land was not stolen. That was, that was given to
00:46:18.300
me fair and square. So there will be no land acknowledgement for, from me in reference
00:46:23.280
to Loudoun County. Ethan says, Matt is definitely the type to text back K and not think anything
00:46:28.180
of it. Um, I would never do that. I would spell it out. Well, I would, okay. You know, the
00:46:31.880
letter O and then K. I don't, I don't, uh, cause I, I don't, I don't speak that way. Okay.
00:46:36.760
I text the way that I speak. So I'm not going to say to someone, K, I'll say this whole thing,
00:46:43.200
but I'll certainly will, we'll have no problem with that. I'll just text back. Oh, that's what
00:46:47.020
I like about text messages. I'll do the same thing with emails too. All the time. I'll respond
00:46:51.600
to an email. Yeah. Cause if the email is a question, Hey, you know, Matt, I hope you're
00:46:56.200
doing well. I hope this and that, and how are your kids doing? And by the way, here's
00:46:59.060
my question. My answer back will be, uh, yeah. Or no. End of, end of email. Send. Because
00:47:07.480
that's the whole advantage of email and texting is that I don't need to do any of that small
00:47:11.040
talk. Um, Mark says, Matt, I was thinking you should get a second dog. So yours has a buddy
00:47:19.400
to play with. No, that's, that's, that's the last thing that we need. You know, we're
00:47:24.100
actually having a problem with the, with the dog. At least it's a problem for me. I'm
00:47:27.840
going to throw this out there. If there's any dog whispers, this is a serious thing.
00:47:30.600
There's any dog whispers in the audience. Maybe you can give me your, your insight. So
00:47:34.060
the issue is, I think I mentioned this like a month ago that we get, we, you know, we got
00:47:37.600
the dog, we adopted the dog and then we had the dog for three days and then I went away
00:47:41.440
for a week. Um, and I came back and every time I walk in the room, the dog would bark
00:47:47.900
at me because it's like he bonded with his pack and I'm, and I wasn't in the pack. And
00:47:52.900
now we're, it's a month later has not changed. So my wife started saying, well, maybe you
00:47:57.580
need to feed the dog and give him treats. And you know, so you're constantly groveling
00:48:01.520
and sucking up to this mangy beast in the house. And I said, you know what? I'm, I'm so tired
00:48:06.040
of getting barked at. I will do that. So I feed the dog. I get him treats. Come here,
00:48:10.000
little boy. Here's your, here's your, here's your treat. And, um, maybe I'm being sarcastic
00:48:14.980
about it and that's probably maybe he's picking up on that. I don't know, but it hasn't changed.
00:48:19.160
It's actually gotten worse. Every time I walk into a room now, he barks. It's like he has
00:48:22.760
not, I'm, I have not earned my place in the pack in my own house. Um, so if anyone has
00:48:31.960
any, in all seriousness, if anyone, cause it's ruining my life. So if you have any suggestions
00:48:35.440
on what to do about that, let me know. Tracy says, I'm sitting here dumbfounded as to how
00:48:39.640
people could just know someone for three hours and do that. Hookups are an insane practice
00:48:44.620
referring back to the Dave Portnoy thing. Um, yeah, hookup culture. Well, you, but you know
00:48:49.740
something, Tracy, the fact that you would not want to be sexually active with someone who
00:48:55.860
you just met and have known for three hours that now puts you, that's, that's its own sexuality.
00:49:03.440
I think that's what they call demisexuality. Now you're a demisexual. Did you know that
00:49:07.040
if you prefer to have a, you know, some kind of emotional involvement with someone at least
00:49:13.780
to, to know something about them, if that's even bare, let alone, you want to be married first.
00:49:21.420
Now we call it, now that is a, you've got your own letter in the LGBT alphabet. You're a demisexual,
00:49:25.760
whether you want it or not, you know, that, that has become, that used to be where you're a normal,
00:49:30.760
healthy person, but now that's just one variation. That's one sexual variation among millions and
00:49:39.120
they're all equal. Um, Jack says, Matt, after seeing your most recent anniversary, anniversary
00:49:46.920
slash vacation photos, has it occurred to you that the only retort necessary to defeat all of your
00:49:51.400
internet adversaries is, have you seen my wife? I went, um, yeah, I do. I, you know, I, I do have
00:49:59.380
a very attractive wife, which, which I do think, but I try not to use that in arguments because it
00:50:04.720
would be weird to do, but I do think that sometimes. Um, and, uh, let's see. Yo, yo, yo says, I feel your
00:50:13.220
pain, Matt. I bought my girlfriend a nice bottle of white wine and she poured seven up into it.
00:50:17.800
I was literally speechless. Poured seven up in the, is that even, is that a thing that people do?
00:50:25.660
That to me seems like a breakup offense. You know, my wife, we're married. The fact that she
00:50:32.380
wasted my very nice bourbon by putting in tea, that's the, that's the kind of thing you work
00:50:36.040
through. We're going to counseling for it right now. Um, but seven up in wine to me, especially it's,
00:50:43.220
it's early on. That's kind of like a red flag. I already, you know, I've, I've been with my wife for
00:50:46.940
10 years. I know that this was a momentary lapse of judgment. Normally she has a great amount of
00:50:51.300
respect for whiskey. She would never normally do that. So I have all of that background,
00:50:56.660
but if you're just dating someone and they're pouring seven up in their white wine,
00:51:01.500
I hate to say, but I think that's, I think that you got to cut that rope. I hate to say,
00:51:07.860
as you heard last week, the daily wire made one of the biggest announcements it will ever make that
00:51:11.280
it's filing a lawsuit against the federal government. This is an unprecedented move for the daily
00:51:15.600
wire, but staring down the face of an increasingly authoritarian president leaves no other options.
00:51:19.680
Our senile leader has ordered that large employers must require their employees to
00:51:23.620
get vaccinated against COVID or submit to regular testing. The daily wires lawsuit was filed by the
00:51:28.200
Dylan law group and Alliance defending freedom. They do a lot of great work and they're helping
00:51:32.380
us with this in the U S court of appeals for the sixth circuit. The lawsuit alleges that the Biden
00:51:35.900
administration lacks constitutional and statutory authority to issue the employer mandate, which
00:51:39.800
would seem they obviously do because look, this mandate is absolutely unconstitutional and we're not
00:51:45.180
standing for it here at the daily wire, but we need your help. If you want to stand up against this

00:52:32.980
our daily cancellation. Today we're going to cancel equality. And this has been a long time coming.
00:52:41.820
Equality has been asking for it. And now the moment has arrived. Of course, every day there's
00:52:45.620
some new lunacy concocted in the name of equality. You could just Google the word equality on any
00:52:50.220
given day and you'll be guaranteed to find a headline like this one. Here's just the most
00:52:53.300
recent example from the New York post. It says UK primary schools ask boys to wear skirts to promote
00:53:00.200
equality. Reading on, it says a grade school in Scotland asked male and female students and
00:53:04.880
teachers to wear skirts to class to promote equality. We want our school to be inclusive and promote
00:53:09.680
equality. An email from Castleview primary in Edinburgh said to parents, the daily mail reported
00:53:14.240
on Wednesday, boys as young as three years old were asked to participate by wearing a skirt.
00:53:20.380
Uh, it says we're keen to spread the message that clothes don't have a gender and that we should all
00:53:24.400
be free to express ourselves as we choose. Teachers wrote in a message to parents according to the
00:53:28.520
outlet. Now equality here is just the cover story as is so often the case. An adult who asks a little
00:53:34.940
boy to put on a skirt has no doubt other intentions and motivations. He's probably a pedophile is what
00:53:41.060
I'm trying to say in case I wasn't being clear enough with the insinuation. But this is still one more
00:53:45.300
instance of the sort of madness that the West's obsession with equality has wrought. It seems to be
00:53:49.800
infecting schools, especially some school systems have done away with grading systems because of
00:53:54.400
equality. They've abolished gifted and talented programs in the name of equality. Equality has put an end to
00:53:58.980
most of the games we used to play in recess and gym class. Of course, equality is what has opened
00:54:04.840
the girls' bathroom to boys. Equality has wreaked havoc in education. And there's a reason why the
00:54:10.400
education system in particular is concerned with equality. We'll get to that in a minute. But this
00:54:15.080
extends far beyond education. Everywhere, our society is being restructured around the concept of
00:54:20.060
equality. And along with its dysgenic offspring, equity, tolerance, inclusion, all of them, all kind of
00:54:26.700
related. Currently, the Equality Act is working its way through Congress, a piece of legislation which
00:54:31.460
seeks to legally abolish once and for all the biological differences between the sexes. But
00:54:36.780
those differences cannot be abolished. So instead, we will simply be forbidden from noticing or
00:54:41.780
acknowledging or in any way acting upon or in response to those differences. So overall, it's clear
00:54:47.500
that we are an equality-obsessed culture. Before we talk about why equality obsession is bad,
00:54:52.800
it should be, I think it would be illuminating and useful to discuss why the obsession exists in the
00:54:58.020
first place. Where did it come from? You know, why are this, society's past, you go through human
00:55:04.480
history, you didn't have this. But why for us? Why are we so obsessed with equality? That's a large
00:55:12.860
question, not one that I can answer completely during this segment. But here are two major factors.
00:55:16.600
First, we are a self-obsessed, narcissistic culture. And equality, ironically, is a major concern of
00:55:24.560
self-obsessed, narcissistic people. Because they wield equality as a negative force. They're
00:55:30.060
constantly worried that other people are advancing beyond them, succeeding more than them, getting
00:55:34.120
more out of life. And so they call for equality as a means to chop everybody back down to their
00:55:39.200
level. You'll notice that so often the person calling for equality is not calling for others to be
00:55:44.220
raised up to his level, but for everyone to be lowered down to his level. Equality is kind of a
00:55:49.960
weed whack or cutting the blades of grass that grow higher than the rest. And it's often the lower
00:55:54.360
blades pointing to the higher ones and saying, get him, cut him down to size. It's not fair that he's
00:55:59.620
growing faster and higher than me. We know that leftism is the religion of self-worship. It's an ideology
00:56:05.120
of narcissism. And so it's no surprise that a society dominated by leftism would also be preoccupied with
00:56:10.560
equality, with especially negative equality of this kind. The second factor can be found on the
00:56:16.160
other end of the spectrum. It kind of approaches from the opposite direction. While equality is
00:56:20.820
very often a tool used by narcissistic losers to prevent others from succeeding, it can also be
00:56:25.580
born from confused and misplaced empathy. Like I said, this is kind of the opposite thing here.
00:56:31.940
This is where much of the equality in the school system originates. Not the Scottish kids wearing
00:56:35.500
skirts. As I said, that's just pervert teachers using equality as a cover. But the erasing of grades,
00:56:39.920
the abolition of playground games, the abolition of gifted and talented programs and so on,
00:56:45.360
that is all at least partly misdirected empathy. And you find it in the school system so prominently
00:56:52.040
because the school system is run by women. Okay, this is the part that Media Matters is going to
00:56:56.580
love. So make sure you click this part, guys. Equality is in many ways a feminine virtue. It's a
00:57:02.580
woman's virtue. It's something women tend to care about much more than men. Women are more worried
00:57:08.380
about making sure that things are fair, that things are equal, that nobody feels bad about
00:57:13.960
themselves, and nobody gets hurt emotionally or physically. That's something that women tend to
00:57:18.600
be concerned about much more than men. Men are more competitive. They're more results-oriented.
00:57:25.300
They're much more likely to take a, you know, may the best man win approach. But as men are driven
00:57:30.260
more and more out of education, this voice, the voice that says to the crying child who got his nose
00:57:36.500
bloodied during dodgeball, hey, rub some dirt on it, you'll be fine. Now get back out there and try
00:57:40.600
to win the next round. That voice has been almost entirely silenced. Now a kid gets his nose bloodied
00:57:47.300
playing dodgeball, and so we say, no more dodgeball for anybody. It's over. Now we have a system where
00:57:53.740
there's almost no competition, no harshness at all, no toughness, no winners or losers. Kids are coddled,
00:58:00.220
they're mothered, they're pampered, and they're not remotely prepared for the realities of life.
00:58:04.340
It's not just in the education system. As men are minimized more and more, replaced,
00:58:08.060
driven out of positions of leadership and so on, all that means is that our society will be
00:58:11.900
increasingly revolving around feminine concerns like equality, tolerance, inclusion. You find this
00:58:18.020
in parenting as well. You know, you need the balance in parenting. You have the mother who typically is,
00:58:23.640
again, going to be very concerned about making sure things are fair. It's going to be the much more
00:58:28.320
empathetic voice and you need that. That's very important. But you also need the masculine fatherly
00:58:34.080
voice that embraces competition, that embraces risk-taking. You know, that the kid scrapes their
00:58:42.860
knee and he's not going to run over immediately. He's going to say, no, get back. You don't need to
00:58:48.160
cry about that. You'll be fine. Get back out there. Children need both. But increasingly, as men,
00:58:56.040
as we have fatherless homes and families where there's no masculine presence, kids don't have
00:59:03.560
that balance. So why is it a problem? You know, what's wrong with equality? Well, the problem with
00:59:09.400
equality is that it's a fiction. It's a mythology. There is no equality in the world. The only place
00:59:14.520
where equality is supposed to exist is in the legal system. Okay, we're supposed to all be equal under
00:59:20.160
the law, meaning that nobody is granted special treatment or favors. But even there, it's still really
00:59:24.220
a fiction. We do not have a legal system that treats everybody equally and we never have and we
00:59:29.160
probably never will. It is at best a theoretically attainable ideal in the legal system. We're probably
00:59:36.160
never going to get there, but we should try. I agree with that. Outside of that realm, equality
00:59:41.960
neither exists nor is it attainable nor desirable because everyone is different. Everything is different.
00:59:48.820
You will not find two apples in a barrel that are the same or two grains of sand on a beach,
00:59:53.980
much less two people. Take two people at random and compare them and one will be uglier, fatter,
01:00:00.080
dumber, less virtuous, less creative, less generous, etc. Hopefully all of those lesser qualities will
01:00:04.640
not be found in the same person, but you never know. We're all a mixed bag and for some of us,

the mixture is better than others. This is all undeniable. The advocates for an equal society,
01:00:15.200
a society where sameness is opposed upon us from the top, from people who are themselves above us,
01:00:20.380
unequal, by the way, these advocates know that we're not really equal, yet they argue that we
01:00:25.740
should live as though we are. Our system should be built upon the false assumption of equality.
01:00:32.400
Equality is a story that they tell and they insist that we live as though the story is true,
01:00:36.600
even though we know it isn't. In the most extreme kind of example, you know, you've got like a man who
01:00:41.700
identifies as a woman and harasses and harangues lesbians who don't want to sleep with him.
01:00:46.500
He'll say that he's equal to the same as biological women and so they ought to be attracted to him
01:00:50.380
the same way that they're attracted to other women. But they're not because equality is a story.
01:00:55.700
It's a stage play and the equality advocate demands that everybody play their part, go along
01:01:00.540
with the script, even if it's all fictional. So that's my issue with equality when you boil it down.
01:01:05.740
It's a lie. We're not equal. We weren't really created equal either, with all due respect to
01:01:11.360
Thomas Jefferson. We're equal in a very abstract and spiritual sense, in the sense that we all
01:01:15.200
have dignity and worth as human beings, sure. But outside of that, we were created very unequal,
01:01:20.560
very different, with vastly different qualities, characteristics, traits, and abilities.
01:01:23.760
And thank God for that. Imagine how boring and dismal and pointless life would be if everyone you
01:01:30.760
encountered was merely a carbon copy of yourself. Imagine if there was no one better than you on
01:01:35.720
earth. No one to look up to or admire. No role models. That's the leftist utopian vision. But the
01:01:43.320
vision is a nightmare. And it's not real. And never can be. And we should stop pretending that it is.
01:01:49.600
And that's why Equality Today is canceled. A segment that I'm sure will garner rave reviews. And
01:01:57.760
everybody will agree with me. And we'll leave it there for today. Thanks for watching. Thanks
