The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 856 - Dems Call For Legislation To Stop Tornadoes

00:00:00.160 Today on the Matt Wall Show, after tornadoes devastated parts of the country on Saturday,

00:00:04.180 the left insists that the disaster could have been prevented through legislation.

00:00:07.820 Is that true? Can we pass laws that will stop tornadoes?

00:00:10.840 We have to deal with that today.

00:00:11.640 Also, major retail chains begged Congress for help in dealing with the surge in crime.

00:00:15.500 I'll explain why they should be basically out of luck.

00:00:18.020 And a Catholic diocese says that it's a sin to try and change your gender.

00:00:21.280 The media is treating this like breaking news, but isn't that what every competent Christian believes?

00:00:25.200 And with Jussie Smollett's conviction, there is a competition to see who can take his place as our nation's chief race hoaxer.

00:00:32.140 One BLM supporting doctor seems to be auditioning for the role.

00:00:34.940 We'll talk about all that and much more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:00:45.700 Well, I'm on the road again, and you know what that means.

00:00:48.560 I always have my trusty relief band by my side, not by my side, actually, on my wrist.

00:00:53.160 And especially here in California, the opportunities for nausea are many for various different reasons.

00:00:59.340 So I have my relief band, but I'm not the only one who suffers from nausea.

00:01:03.340 Did you know that one out of three Americans regularly suffer from nausea?

00:01:06.760 We've all experienced that horrible feeling, whether it's in the backseat of a car, staring at your phone,

00:01:10.980 or after you had one too many out with your friends one night.

00:01:14.700 Even just a little bit of anxiety during work.

00:01:17.180 Whatever it is, you know that nausea can really ruin your day, which is why you need relief band.

00:01:21.400 It's the number one FDA-cleared anti-nausea wristband that's been clinically proven to quickly relieve

00:01:25.660 and effectively prevent nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness, anxiety, migraines, hangovers,

00:01:30.640 morning sickness, chemotherapy, and so much more.

00:01:32.840 The product is 100% drug-free, non-drowsy.

00:01:35.040 It provides all-natural, long-lasting relief with zero side effects for as long as needed.

00:01:40.180 With the holiday season upon us, there's never been a better time to give the gift of relief

00:01:43.480 and make sure your loved ones are nausea-free.

00:01:45.540 Right now, the relief band has an exclusive offer just for my listeners.

00:02:01.660 Living as we did up in the woods in Pennsylvania before we moved out to Nashville,

00:02:05.540 we never had to think much about, you know, tornadoes.

00:02:08.220 Pennsylvania sees its share of twisters, but Tennessee has significantly more,

00:02:11.860 though both states are dwarfed by Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma, etc., and the tornado tally.

00:02:16.600 So after a year in Tennessee, it was not completely out of the ordinary

00:02:19.900 when the tornado warning started blaring on our phones early Saturday morning,

00:02:23.880 this past Saturday morning, around 3 a.m.

00:02:26.080 We had a tornado watch before we went to bed,

00:02:29.000 which means that conditions are such that there could be tornadoes.

00:02:32.480 The warning comes in when actual funnel clouds have been sighted,

00:02:35.380 and you need to seek shelter immediately.

00:02:37.640 It's always disconcerting huddling in the basement,

00:02:39.940 listening to the winds that sound like Mack trucks speeding through your yard.

00:02:43.400 But that's all it was in our neck of the woods.

00:02:45.260 It's lots of wind and noise and some downed power lines

00:02:47.900 and then some scattered tree limbs, and that was basically the extent of it.

00:02:51.680 Our neighbors, especially to the north and west of us, were not so lucky.

00:02:55.520 Around 20 separate tornadoes, including one massive one that cut a path across some,

00:03:00.520 they think, 200 miles, and ripped through parts of Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Missouri,

00:03:06.080 hitting Kentucky the hardest.

00:03:07.580 Over 100 people were killed, the majority in Kentucky,

00:03:10.480 and the lion's share of those deaths were concentrated in one factory,

00:03:14.220 a candle factory, where dozens of workers were killed

00:03:16.720 when the factory was totally demolished by the storms.

00:03:20.280 In fact, almost the whole town of Mayfield, where the factory was located, was destroyed.

00:03:25.040 Images of the devastation look like, you know,

00:03:27.280 the aftermath of some kind of aerial bombardment during wartime.

00:03:31.420 The Daily Wire was on the scene interviewing survivors.

00:03:33.260 You can hear them tell the story in their own words and see some of the images.

00:03:36.780 Take a look at this.

00:03:37.560 Never in my life seen destruction like this.

00:03:40.200 Never.

00:03:41.160 First, the tornado warnings, we had a siren right there, so it was super loud.

00:03:45.260 But at that moment, I started getting mattresses out,

00:03:47.700 just ready right by the closet that I planned on.

00:03:50.300 It was the most centered part of the house, so they was making fun of me,

00:03:53.360 you know what I mean, but it's better safe than sorry.

00:03:55.120 And then we went out on the front porch,

00:03:56.380 because I've personally never seen a tornado.

00:03:58.940 And the next thing you know, it got real calm,

00:04:04.060 and then I heard something like a freight train.

00:04:06.140 And, you know, I've always watched documentaries and stuff.

00:04:08.400 So all the power went out, and then I seen, like,

00:04:11.240 the tornado looked blue from the electricity.

00:04:14.320 And it was probably about two streets over that way.

00:04:16.680 That's when we seen it.

00:04:18.040 So I immediately run in.

00:04:20.000 The gentleman's laying in bed over there,

00:04:21.860 so I bust his door down and tell him to get up.

00:04:23.940 The tornado's coming.

00:04:24.620 He jumps in the shower, and we run over here.

00:04:28.080 We get up in the closet and pull mattress over us.

00:04:30.780 The whole house starts shaking.

00:04:32.760 You hear things breaking.

00:04:34.340 I was just praying the whole time, you know.

00:04:36.120 And it happened so fast, and it was calm.

00:04:39.380 Everybody got out and made sure everybody was okay.

00:04:41.520 And the first thing, you know, we thought of was getting out and helping.

00:04:43.680 So that's truly horrifying.

00:04:44.900 And there's a sickening sort of helplessness that you feel

00:04:48.020 when you're in the path of something like this.

00:04:50.460 We had just a very small taste of that where we lived.

00:04:54.620 Because you know that you're at the mercy of nature.

00:04:57.200 And if things decide to hit directly where you're sitting,

00:04:59.980 no matter how many precautions you take, you're probably doomed.

00:05:03.760 When you consider the force and the magnitude and the boundlessness of nature,

00:05:08.760 it becomes all the more not only grotesque, but absurd after the fact,

00:05:13.960 when the political forces in our country attempt to turn these natural forces

00:05:18.200 into a political issue.

00:05:20.980 But that's exactly what happened here, as usual.

00:05:23.680 With bodies still buried under the rubble, the media and politicians

00:05:26.760 set out to make ideological hay out of the whole thing

00:05:29.960 by tying the tornadoes to, of course, climate change,

00:05:33.540 and claiming that we could have somehow prevented Saturday's disaster

00:05:37.120 through well-written legislation.

00:05:39.260 There could have been laws written to stop tornadoes.

00:05:43.040 That's the claim.

00:05:44.280 Here's President Biden.

00:05:45.940 Does this say anything to you about climate change?

00:05:48.760 Is this, or do you conclude that these storms and the intensity

00:05:52.220 would have to do with climate change?

00:05:53.680 Well, all that I know is that the intensity of the weather across the board

00:05:59.420 has some impact as a consequence of the warming of the planet

00:06:02.920 and the climate change.

00:06:04.580 The specific impact on these specific storms, I can't say at this point.

00:06:10.940 I'm going to be asking the EPA and others to take a look at that.

00:06:14.660 But the fact is that we all know everything is more intense

00:06:19.720 when the climate is warming.

00:06:22.320 Everything.

00:06:23.360 And obviously it has some impact here,

00:06:25.360 but I can't give you a quantitative read on that.

00:06:28.680 Yes, we know that climate change caused this.

00:06:31.480 I can't say how, or to what extent, or offer any proof,

00:06:36.820 but just go with my general statements anyway.

00:06:39.880 We don't know how, but it happened.

00:06:42.340 Actor Mark Ruffalo, last seen using cutesy pet names for child rapists in Kenosha,

00:06:47.100 was more direct, tweeting, quote,

00:06:49.080 this is what hashtag climate catastrophe looks like.

00:06:52.300 It's only going to get worse from here.

00:06:54.200 Now it's time to fight for our suffering and despairing youth.

00:06:57.740 Yeah, we have to fight tornadoes.

00:07:00.100 Let's come up with our game plan to fight back against tornadoes.

00:07:05.600 Rachel Vindman, a woman with an inexplicably large following, said,

00:07:09.700 climate change, what does it look like?

00:07:11.300 This is absolutely heartbreaking, and it's a direct result of climate change.

00:07:15.180 Believe me.

00:07:16.020 I know it's tempting to scream, yell, and question why people are so slow to accept reality,

00:07:20.400 but we must have conversations with skeptics.

00:07:23.000 That's another thing that will stop tornadoes, conversations.

00:07:25.040 Noelle Scovel, another woman with an inexplicably large following, wrote,

00:07:31.440 sorry, Kentucky, maybe if your two senators hadn't spent decades blocking legislation to

00:07:36.260 reduce climate change, you wouldn't be suffering from climate disasters.

00:07:39.820 If it's any consolation, McConnell and Rand have effed over all of us, too.

00:07:44.380 Now she tweeted that, by the way, Noelle Scovel did, tweeted that early in the morning on Saturday.

00:07:50.240 So it was like the very first thing she thought when she woke up to the news that 100 people

00:07:56.340 were buried under rubble across, you know, three different states.

00:08:00.080 The very first thing she thought was, oh, this is going to be a great way.

00:08:03.340 This is, this, oh, I could, I could get a little dig in here against the Republicans and McConnell

00:08:07.540 and Rand Paul.

00:08:09.020 The media, of course, chimed in with explainers like this one from CNN,

00:08:12.860 how the climate crisis is affecting tornadoes.

00:08:15.460 And then this from Washington Post, a warming world could add more fuel to tornadoes, scientists say.

00:08:21.820 And so on, you get the idea.

00:08:23.840 The consensus from all of these sources is that natural disasters like tornadoes happen because of us.

00:08:32.460 These people believe, or at least they want us to believe, which is not necessarily the same thing,

00:08:37.200 that there is actually legislation that can be written, laws that can be passed to stop tornadoes.

00:08:43.920 So when they look at footage of an F5 tornado, and when most of us see footage like that,

00:08:51.460 we see a force of nature.

00:08:54.620 We see nature in all of its, in all of its terrifying, deadly, you know, essence.

00:09:02.800 But what they see with the tornado is a policy failure.

00:09:07.300 Tornadoes are policy failures.

00:09:08.680 That's how they see it.

00:09:10.480 Now, let's, let's be clear about something here.

00:09:12.960 Um, that view, to the extent that it's held sincerely, is straight up superstition.

00:09:21.220 Okay, it's on the level of, like, a primitive tribesman who thinks that he can stop the rain,

00:09:27.180 or make the rain start, or whatever, influence the weather,

00:09:30.880 by dancing around a fire and chanting certain things.

00:09:34.580 In fact, it's worse than that.

00:09:36.040 It's far worse than that.

00:09:37.760 Because at least the primitive tribesman has an excuse to be ignorant of the science.

00:09:44.320 He doesn't have access to that information.

00:09:46.740 He is making sense of the world with the information that he has available to him.

00:09:50.680 The modern climate change alarmist should know better, and often does,

00:09:55.300 but he spreads this nonsense anyway.

00:09:56.780 Now, here are some facts to keep in mind on the issue of climate change and how it affects tornadoes.

00:10:04.820 First of all, if natural disasters were getting deadlier,

00:10:08.860 there would be a very obvious reason for that, which has nothing to do with climate change.

00:10:13.380 There are more people on Earth.

00:10:15.260 So a deadlier catastrophe is one, right, that kills more people.

00:10:19.380 And if there are more people around, then that means that more people can die,

00:10:24.120 because more people will be in the path of any given disaster.

00:10:28.320 There are twice as many people in the Midwest today as there were in the 20s, for example,

00:10:35.560 which puts twice as many people in the path of tornadoes.

00:10:39.300 And yet, so that's, if natural disasters were getting deadlier, that would be the reason.

00:10:44.340 Yet, amazingly, what you find is that, in fact, a lot fewer people are actually dying in this way.

00:10:51.360 Natural disaster deaths are at historic lows, not highs,

00:10:56.040 in spite of the fact that there are so many more people around.

00:11:00.360 As Andrew Follett, who's a former NASA scientist,

00:11:02.980 he explained this weekend in a very enlightening thread on Twitter.

00:11:06.540 In fact, the deadliest day for tornadoes in American history still was in the 20s, 1925.

00:11:13.100 Not even 20 years after the Model T was first introduced.

00:11:18.900 So not a lot of time for fossil fuels to be creating tornadoes, right?

00:11:27.340 And yet, 700 people died in basically the same region where 100 just died from tornadoes.

00:11:33.140 And again, there were fewer people.

00:11:35.940 Populations were more spread out, less dense than they are now.

00:11:39.820 And yet, the disaster was deadlier, much deadlier.

00:11:43.100 Why is that?

00:11:44.600 Well, that's because it's because of the kinds of modern innovations that the left blames for natural disasters.

00:11:53.860 Those innovations that get blamed for natural disasters are actually saving millions of lives from natural disasters.

00:12:00.540 By the way, the deadliest hurricane in American history hit Galveston in, guess what year?

00:12:07.860 1900.

00:12:10.020 And we know about hurricanes as far back as the 1600s that were killing thousands of people.

00:12:14.640 We can't go back farther than that because there was nobody around in this part of the world keeping reliable records.

00:12:19.700 That's the other problem with comparing weather events across centuries.

00:12:24.500 We've only been keeping track of these things reliably for a comparatively short amount of time.

00:12:29.960 And so it's very hard.

00:12:31.460 Nobody has any idea how many tornadoes hit the North American continent in the year 1350, for example, or how bad they were, or how many people died from them.

00:12:40.520 We have absolutely no idea.

00:12:43.380 We can't possibly know.

00:12:46.860 Did a tornado hit this continent on March 7th, you know, in the area where Kansas is now in the year 1272?

00:12:58.800 Do you know the answer to that?

00:12:59.860 Nobody does.

00:13:01.420 There was no one around keeping records of it.

00:13:04.220 There were people around, but they weren't keeping reliable records that we can use now to trace the weather.

00:13:08.800 And yet you hear things like, oh, it was the worst storm in history.

00:13:15.220 Well, how do you know that?

00:13:17.320 What that always means is worst storm by certain metrics we think since we started keeping track a few decades ago.

00:13:26.220 That's what worst in history means when it comes to weather events.

00:13:30.800 Remember something.

00:13:32.820 The Earth is enormous and ancient.

00:13:36.800 It didn't begin at the dawn of the Industrial Age, despite what you may have heard.

00:13:42.880 Go back to the year 700 million B.C., and there were weather events going on far more extreme than what we experience today.

00:13:52.740 And the climate was changing, and the climate changes were far more drastic and devastating.

00:13:57.300 It's just that there were no people around to be affected by it.

00:14:01.200 Go forward to the year 770,000 B.C., let's say, and you'll see the Earth getting battered by all kinds of extreme weather events.

00:14:09.300 Same in the year 7,000 B.C.

00:14:11.580 And 1,000 A.D.

00:14:13.600 And the year 1550 and 1650 and 1721.

00:14:16.800 And now in 2021.

00:14:17.900 And yet after these billions of years of history, where the Earth has endured one catastrophe after another,

00:14:25.120 we step into this chain of events in modern times and surmise that it's all our fault.

00:14:32.660 And that we can actually stop it by writing words on a piece of paper and having a bunch of politicians sign it.

00:14:40.860 The amount of ego required to believe this is almost impossible to fathom.

00:14:49.380 And yet, at the same time, I can see why it's appealing in a certain way.

00:14:55.180 Because I go back to that feeling of dread when the tornado warning sounds,

00:15:00.120 and you're huddled in your safe place that they tell you to go to,

00:15:04.220 and you've got your kids and your families there,

00:15:06.260 and it's only safe so long as the tornado doesn't get too close to it, right?

00:15:12.660 It's scary to be so powerless and vulnerable in the face of these things that we can't control.

00:15:19.640 So there's a comfort then in climate change hysteria.

00:15:24.640 That's one of the great lessons of the last couple of years especially,

00:15:27.960 is that there's a comfort for people.

00:15:29.680 People find comfort in hysteria, believe it or not.

00:15:33.720 Because it convinces you that you can conceivably control the uncontrollable.

00:15:40.560 And that you are not at the mercy of forces beyond you.

00:15:44.660 But that's all a lie.

00:15:46.360 It's an illusion.

00:15:49.020 Stop fooling yourself and face reality.

00:15:52.600 Now let's get to our five headlines.

00:15:54.380 You know, it's a strange American custom, at least in some families, certainly in mine,

00:16:04.780 to never use the front door.

00:16:06.240 You know, and we're one of those families where we always go in through the garage.

00:16:10.420 And maybe when there's guests over, we let them use the front door

00:16:13.300 because we don't want them to see the disaster zone that our garage is.

00:16:16.180 But, you know, the garages are, statistically speaking,

00:16:18.760 the most frequently accessed entry to the home.

00:16:20.880 But they're often overlooked, even though they're the place where people keep all their important things.

00:16:26.540 They walk through it and everything else.

00:16:28.660 Which is why you need the MyQ Smart Camera by Chamberlain.

00:17:15.500 It's the only smart camera optimized for the garage.

00:17:18.960 All right, so we are back.

00:17:20.680 If you're wondering about the change of venue here yet again,

00:17:23.440 we're back in California, back in, for a few days, back in COVID, Stan.

00:17:28.920 And, you know, you always, you try to erase it from your mind

00:17:32.060 when you come to one of these places.

00:17:33.260 If you live in a sane part of the country

00:17:35.080 and you come to one of these places, then you leave.

00:17:37.600 You try to erase it from your mind.

00:17:38.500 So it's always kind of a shock to the system coming back to a place like this,

00:17:41.300 whether it's California or, you know, New York or somewhere like that,

00:17:44.300 where, you know, you can't walk into a building without being accosted by 50 people

00:17:50.620 yelling at you to put your mask on.

00:17:52.460 And I go into, like at the hotel here, I go into the elevator,

00:17:57.080 and there are markings on the floor, one in each corner,

00:18:02.780 for where you can stand when you're in the elevator.

00:18:05.200 And I look at that, and I want to believe that people are not actually using those markers

00:18:12.740 and standing on their little spots on the floor.

00:18:16.740 And they're right, like, in the corner.

00:18:18.440 I'm actually surprised.

00:18:19.320 See, they're in the corner, but they're facing out.

00:18:21.560 I'm surprised they're not facing in so that each person, you know,

00:18:24.080 you stand in the elevator in your corner and you face the corner,

00:18:27.940 like five-year-olds that have been put in timeout.

00:18:29.860 So they didn't do that.

00:18:32.000 They do let you face out so you can see forward,

00:18:34.720 but you have to stand in your corner.

00:18:36.640 And I want to believe that everyone has the same reaction I do

00:18:39.480 when you go and you see stuff like that.

00:18:41.040 You just kind of scoff at it, laugh at it.

00:18:42.820 But this is California, and I bet there are a lot of people who get in there

00:18:45.660 and they get in their spot.

00:18:49.000 That's what I'm betting.

00:18:49.880 And the thing is, under normal circumstances,

00:18:53.840 if you weren't telling me to do it,

00:18:57.080 that's basically what I would do in an elevator anyway,

00:19:00.020 and not because of COVID.

00:19:01.880 But when I'm in the elevator,

00:19:02.980 I want to be as far away from the next person as I can,

00:19:06.560 just out of the principle of antisocialism,

00:19:10.200 of being antisocial.

00:19:12.080 Antisocialism is a different thing,

00:19:12.960 which I also hold that principle.

00:19:15.000 So based on that principle, you know,

00:19:16.720 that's kind of what I'll do.

00:19:18.780 But then when you tell me to do it,

00:19:20.340 now I don't want to do it.

00:19:23.840 Now I'm going to stand right in the middle of that thing on purpose.

00:19:26.500 I'm going to cozy up next to someone,

00:19:28.120 which I would never do in an elevator,

00:19:29.460 but just because you told me not to, now I will.

00:19:31.300 That's the American spirit.

00:19:35.260 It's also, you know, childish.

00:19:37.200 But you know what we need?

00:19:37.780 We need a little bit of that kind of childishness in the world today,

00:19:40.800 in this country.

00:19:41.380 We need that.

00:19:42.920 We need some of that spirit.

00:19:44.400 You know, you could go too far with it,

00:19:45.500 but we need some of that spirit where you're telling me to do it,

00:19:47.520 and so I'm not going to do it.

00:19:49.800 All right, on the subject of COVID,

00:19:51.100 Fauci is out now doing some very direct fear-mongering

00:19:54.760 to parents of young children.

00:19:56.320 Nothing new there,

00:19:57.060 but now this is a direct appeal

00:19:58.200 to the parents of young children specifically.

00:20:00.600 Up until the last few weeks or so,

00:20:02.480 when it came to kids,

00:20:03.440 he would mostly just,

00:20:04.540 he wouldn't talk about it.

00:20:06.020 Of course, he was never being honest

00:20:08.200 and actually saying to people,

00:20:09.780 listen, your kids are going to be fine.

00:20:11.440 This really isn't much of a threat to kids.

00:20:13.100 He was never saying that.

00:20:13.900 Instead, he was just remaining silent.

00:20:15.440 But now that there is a vaccine to sell,

00:20:17.680 now he's doing this direct appeal

00:20:20.000 and this direct fear-mongering.

00:20:22.880 But in the midst of his fear-mongering here,

00:20:24.800 that we'll play here,

00:20:25.640 he makes the mistake of telling the truth

00:20:28.480 in the midst of the fear-mongering.

00:20:29.600 Listen to this.

00:20:30.400 If your child is five years of age and older,

00:20:32.940 please get them vaccinated.

00:20:34.440 We need to protect the children.

00:20:36.900 This idea that children are not vulnerable at all

00:20:39.720 is not so, George.

00:20:41.500 I mean, certainly, statistically,

00:20:43.020 children do not get as severe disease

00:20:46.040 as the adults, particularly the elderly.

00:20:49.220 But if you look at the number of cases of children,

00:20:52.100 now well over 2 million children

00:20:53.940 from 5 to 11 have been infected.

00:20:56.260 There have been over 8,000 to 9,000 hospitalizations

00:20:59.140 and well over 100 deaths.

00:21:01.320 So, okay, let's run the numbers there.

00:21:04.280 The numbers that he just gave us.

00:21:06.140 Okay, so these are from Fauci.

00:21:07.960 Based on what he just said,

00:21:12.260 that would be a mortality rate

00:21:14.520 for children in that age bracket of 0.005%.

00:21:18.400 A 0.005% mortality rate.

00:21:22.540 So that would be a fraction of a fraction

00:21:25.100 of a fraction of a percent

00:21:26.660 is the mortality rate.

00:21:28.700 And that actually overstates it

00:21:30.900 by a considerable amount

00:21:33.360 because those 2 million cases that he quotes,

00:21:35.920 they don't count the very many kids

00:21:37.640 who had it and weren't tested

00:21:39.060 because they had no symptoms.

00:21:42.100 And there's no way for us to know

00:21:43.400 how many kids fall into that category,

00:21:44.660 but it would be reasonable to suspect

00:21:47.280 that the actual number of cases of COVID

00:21:50.260 among that age bracket

00:21:51.400 is considerably higher than 2 million.

00:21:57.260 2 million times 2 or 4 or who knows.

00:22:00.920 So at the most,

00:22:02.220 the way to put this is,

00:22:03.340 at the absolute most,

00:22:05.280 the mortality rate for kids

00:22:06.940 in that age bracket is 0.005%.

00:22:08.840 And at the most,

00:22:10.940 at the absolute most,

00:22:12.900 the hospitalization rate is 0.4%.

00:22:15.100 And even this doesn't take into account

00:22:18.060 things like comorbidities

00:22:19.560 and that sort of thing,

00:22:20.680 which are not as common among kids,

00:22:22.880 but they of course do exist.

00:22:28.320 And this is all in the context

00:22:29.720 of trying to convince us

00:22:30.860 that we have to go

00:22:31.440 and get our kids jabbed with the vaccine.

00:22:32.860 When the risk level is that,

00:22:37.740 it's a risk level.

00:22:39.980 I mean, it exists.

00:22:41.960 We can't say that there's no risk.

00:22:45.280 But when the risk level,

00:22:47.040 from a standpoint of pure common sense

00:22:50.880 and being able to function in the world,

00:22:55.320 right, being a functional human being,

00:22:57.280 the risk level that small,

00:22:58.900 there's really,

00:23:00.140 there's no reason to respond to it at all.

00:23:06.580 Because there are so many other,

00:23:08.180 if we're going to start measuring

00:23:09.560 fraction of a fraction of a fraction

00:23:11.360 of a percent type of risks,

00:23:12.840 especially as a parent,

00:23:15.140 then you're never going to let your kid

00:23:16.400 leave the house.

00:23:17.060 You're not going to let them ever do anything.

00:23:19.760 As we've talked about many times,

00:23:21.020 you will never put them in a car

00:23:22.400 because the risk there is greater statistically.

00:23:25.680 Even if COVID goes away,

00:23:29.660 you're never going to bring them around people

00:23:30.940 because the risk of flu is greater

00:23:33.140 for them in that age bracket.

00:23:35.680 You're never going to let them do anything.

00:23:41.580 So, again,

00:23:44.420 when the risk level is that small,

00:23:47.040 you have to decide,

00:23:48.200 are you going to,

00:23:49.880 is your life going to revolve around that?

00:23:52.380 Or are you just going to continue

00:23:53.200 to live your life?

00:23:56.000 And it's,

00:23:56.980 there is something really,

00:23:58.360 especially sinister,

00:23:59.560 irreprehensible.

00:24:00.960 First of all,

00:24:01.540 to prey on a parent's fear like this.

00:24:05.100 Because we know as parents,

00:24:07.540 it's one thing to step back

00:24:09.380 from the situation,

00:24:10.180 to look at the numbers,

00:24:11.000 look at the data,

00:24:12.080 and kind of evaluate it objectively.

00:24:15.160 But as a parent,

00:24:16.220 when it comes to your own kids,

00:24:19.260 it's very easy for fear to take over.

00:24:21.880 And it's hard to make these

00:24:24.220 reasonable,

00:24:25.200 calculated judgments sometimes.

00:24:28.240 As parents,

00:24:29.000 we all,

00:24:29.280 we also,

00:24:29.640 we also have these special fears,

00:24:31.400 things that we worry about

00:24:32.380 that are almost certainly

00:24:34.200 not going to happen.

00:24:35.200 But you,

00:24:35.640 for whatever reason,

00:24:36.940 it plays on your anxieties

00:24:39.000 in a certain way,

00:24:39.860 and you,

00:24:40.740 you worry about it

00:24:41.760 way more than you need to.

00:24:43.920 For a lot of parents,

00:24:44.900 I think it's something

00:24:46.120 like kidnapping.

00:24:47.240 A lot of parents are very worried

00:24:48.280 about that the kid's

00:24:48.700 going to get kidnapped.

00:24:49.300 Even though that almost

00:24:51.460 never happens.

00:24:52.340 It almost never happens

00:24:53.540 that a child is kidnapped

00:24:54.480 by a stranger.

00:24:55.700 Now,

00:24:55.940 we're talking about custody disputes

00:24:57.160 and that kind of thing.

00:24:58.140 Then,

00:24:58.560 yeah,

00:24:58.720 it does happen.

00:25:00.220 But the,

00:25:00.880 the fear that someone's going to,

00:25:02.900 just some stranger's going to

00:25:03.780 roll up in a white van

00:25:04.480 and take your kid,

00:25:05.180 it,

00:25:05.360 it,

00:25:05.400 it almost definitely

00:25:06.880 will not happen.

00:25:08.500 It almost never happens.

00:25:10.080 It doesn't make any sense

00:25:11.040 to worry about it at all,

00:25:12.260 really.

00:25:13.420 Because the risk is that small.

00:25:14.960 But as,

00:25:15.760 as a parent,

00:25:16.520 because you just,

00:25:17.560 once you,

00:25:17.920 here's what you do,

00:25:18.800 as you start imagining

00:25:20.560 these situations in your head,

00:25:22.400 in your,

00:25:23.780 in your anxious state,

00:25:25.420 you kind of call them

00:25:26.220 into being.

00:25:27.620 And then you start worrying

00:25:28.920 about these,

00:25:29.460 these things

00:25:30.060 that you've imagined.

00:25:33.580 And now,

00:25:34.720 we've got pharmaceutical companies

00:25:35.960 and Fauci as their spokesman

00:25:37.180 preying upon that.

00:25:39.080 And it's really pretty sinister.

00:25:40.480 But then also keep this in mind.

00:25:42.720 This,

00:25:43.280 this could really get children

00:25:44.920 killed eventually.

00:25:45.700 And I'll tell you why.

00:25:47.200 Because it's only a matter of time

00:25:49.320 before a pandemic hits

00:25:51.420 that actually does target kids.

00:25:53.240 We know historically

00:25:54.020 that obviously has happened.

00:25:56.900 Polio,

00:25:57.820 just one example.

00:26:00.140 So it's inevitable

00:26:01.440 that event,

00:26:02.340 hopefully it won't be soon,

00:26:03.280 but eventually there's going to be,

00:26:04.660 there are going to be more pandemics

00:26:05.740 in the future.

00:26:06.120 There are always going to be pandemics.

00:26:07.360 And it just so happens

00:26:10.360 that this one,

00:26:12.540 for the most part,

00:26:13.900 leaves kids alone

00:26:14.640 in terms of serious reactions to it.

00:26:17.460 But that's not always going to be the case.

00:26:19.700 Eventually,

00:26:20.200 a virus is going to come along

00:26:21.340 that really will target kids

00:26:22.740 in a,

00:26:24.000 you know,

00:26:24.420 in a very specific way.

00:26:25.700 But the problem is

00:26:26.760 that now that we've been

00:26:28.480 lied to so much about it,

00:26:30.360 a lot of people

00:26:31.940 aren't going to believe it.

00:26:33.860 When you've got the Fauci's

00:26:35.100 of the world coming out

00:26:35.820 and say,

00:26:36.080 oh,

00:26:36.280 this is coming after your kids,

00:26:37.940 many people are going to say,

00:26:39.040 oh,

00:26:39.160 that's what you said last time.

00:26:42.000 So it's the boy who cried wolf scenario.

00:26:45.580 Except in this case,

00:26:46.400 it's not sheep that are at risk,

00:26:47.860 it's your kids.

00:26:50.540 All right,

00:26:51.020 let's move on to this.

00:26:52.280 Major retail chains

00:26:53.580 like Best Buy,

00:26:54.920 Target,

00:26:55.320 Nordstrom,

00:26:55.820 Foot Locker,

00:26:56.480 and some others,

00:26:57.540 many others in fact,

00:26:58.220 have now crawled to Congress

00:26:59.600 begging for help

00:27:00.780 during this surge of crime

00:27:02.560 and looting,

00:27:03.680 organized retail theft

00:27:04.840 as they're calling it,

00:27:05.500 which is looting.

00:27:08.620 The word looting

00:27:09.600 and also the word rioting

00:27:10.860 have become politically incorrect now

00:27:12.320 because of the way

00:27:12.980 that we associate them with,

00:27:14.320 rightly so,

00:27:15.000 with BLM.

00:27:15.740 And so now it's

00:27:16.300 organized retail theft

00:27:17.620 is what we call it.

00:27:19.000 And representatives

00:27:19.680 of all these major chains

00:27:20.900 wrote a letter to Congress

00:27:22.020 which says in part,

00:27:23.900 leading retailers

00:27:24.900 are concerned

00:27:25.520 about the growing impact

00:27:26.580 organized retail crime

00:27:27.940 is having on the communities

00:27:29.040 we proudly serve,

00:27:30.640 which is why

00:27:31.200 we strongly support

00:27:32.100 the bipartisan

00:27:32.840 and bicameral

00:27:33.760 Integrity Notification

00:27:34.960 and Fairness

00:27:35.560 in Online Retail Marketplace

00:27:37.120 for Consumers Act.

00:27:39.020 INFORM

00:27:39.500 is the acronym

00:27:40.160 they're going for there.

00:27:40.800 That's why they stretched for it.

00:27:42.260 This important legislation

00:27:43.600 will modernize

00:27:44.400 our consumer protection laws

00:27:45.600 to safeguard families

00:27:46.600 and communities

00:27:47.060 from the sale

00:27:47.640 of illicit products

00:27:48.540 and we urge

00:27:49.500 its quick passage.

00:27:51.040 There's no simple answer

00:27:52.040 to stopping

00:27:52.480 organized retail crime

00:27:53.700 or the sale

00:27:54.960 of counterfeits,

00:27:56.060 but key to stemming

00:27:56.800 the tide

00:27:57.140 of these growing problems

00:27:58.220 is transparency.

00:27:59.080 If a customer buys a product

00:28:00.460 from a local retail storefront

00:28:01.760 or e-commerce site

00:28:02.780 and it is broken

00:28:03.360 or otherwise defective,

00:28:04.380 the consumer knows

00:28:05.100 exactly who to contact.

00:28:06.340 There's accountability.

00:28:07.080 In the current environment,

00:28:08.320 blah, blah, blah,

00:28:09.740 we need this to happen.

00:28:10.420 It's time for Congress

00:28:11.160 to modernize

00:28:11.960 our consumer safety laws

00:28:13.140 so consumers,

00:28:14.500 retail employees,

00:28:15.060 and businesses

00:28:15.400 are not targets

00:28:16.400 of organized retail crime

00:28:17.600 and dangerous

00:28:18.220 counterfeit products.

00:28:19.620 It's time for Congress

00:28:20.640 to act,

00:28:21.040 is what they're saying.

00:28:23.000 And I can see

00:28:23.900 why they want help.

00:28:25.060 Of course I can.

00:28:26.020 This is destroying them.

00:28:27.700 They're shutting down locations.

00:28:29.080 Chains like Walgreens.

00:28:33.000 Walgreens has basically

00:28:33.680 been chased out of

00:28:34.920 places like San Francisco.

00:28:38.120 Target is having

00:28:38.840 a hard time too.

00:28:39.560 They're having to

00:28:40.180 limit hours.

00:28:42.360 Lots of other things

00:28:43.160 that are happening

00:28:43.480 because of all this crime.

00:28:45.760 And that's why

00:28:46.400 they want help.

00:28:47.700 But here's what I would do

00:28:48.840 if I was in charge.

00:28:50.220 If it were up to me

00:28:51.360 and sadly at this point

00:28:53.440 it is not

00:28:53.960 until I complete

00:28:54.640 my theocratic fascist

00:28:55.740 takeover of the world,

00:28:57.080 which will happen.

00:29:00.080 But if it were up to me

00:29:01.100 I would say

00:29:02.380 to Target,

00:29:03.120 Best Buy,

00:29:03.820 Nordstrom,

00:29:04.640 Foot Locker,

00:29:05.280 all the rest of them.

00:29:06.500 Here's what I would say.

00:29:07.160 I would say

00:29:07.420 we will help you.

00:29:10.020 Right?

00:29:10.500 We're glad to help you

00:29:11.580 if

00:29:12.760 you have not catered

00:29:14.940 to the BLM mob

00:29:15.980 and the woke mob.

00:29:17.640 Thereby celebrating

00:29:18.680 the very criminality

00:29:19.700 that you now want

00:29:20.540 to be protected from.

00:29:21.460 So we'll take a look

00:29:24.380 at your social media accounts

00:29:26.380 and we'll take a look

00:29:27.560 at your public statements

00:29:28.440 and all the different

00:29:29.820 marketing and stuff

00:29:30.380 that you've done.

00:29:31.800 And as long as you

00:29:32.900 haven't done any of that,

00:29:34.660 no hashtag BLM,

00:29:36.320 putting the black square up,

00:29:37.780 anything like that,

00:29:39.080 we stand with George Floyd.

00:29:42.260 As long as we find

00:29:43.160 none of that,

00:29:44.200 then we'll help you out.

00:29:46.440 Which is just another way

00:29:47.500 of saying that

00:29:47.940 if it were up to me

00:29:48.420 I wouldn't be helping

00:29:48.960 any of these companies

00:29:49.560 because every single one of them

00:29:50.780 have been cowed

00:29:54.200 before the mob

00:29:55.260 that has now turned

00:29:57.120 its sights on them

00:29:58.080 and is destroying them.

00:30:01.220 So you've got to live with this.

00:30:02.360 This is your problem.

00:30:05.940 Now you want help?

00:30:06.940 I mean,

00:30:07.080 what did you think

00:30:07.620 was going to happen?

00:30:09.380 Well, I know the plan

00:30:10.660 from the marketing geniuses

00:30:11.660 at these corporations

00:30:12.400 is that, hey,

00:30:13.920 if we say,

00:30:15.000 yeah, let's go BLM,

00:30:16.120 if we cater to them,

00:30:17.780 if we get out the pom-poms

00:30:18.900 and cheer them on,

00:30:19.980 then they'll pass us over.

00:30:22.980 Like the angel of death

00:30:24.120 on Passover.

00:30:24.880 This is our,

00:30:25.620 you know,

00:30:26.180 our wokeness

00:30:26.840 is the lamb's blood

00:30:28.260 on the door.

00:30:31.000 And it didn't work out that way.

00:30:33.920 Because in this case,

00:30:34.700 the angel of death

00:30:35.400 visited every single house

00:30:37.140 that had the lamb's blood

00:30:39.000 on the door.

00:30:40.980 And you know why?

00:30:41.740 Because the angel,

00:30:42.540 to continue with this metaphor,

00:30:44.220 the angel of death

00:30:44.840 is realizing that,

00:30:45.640 oh, okay,

00:30:46.100 well, these are the people

00:30:47.000 who will do what I say.

00:30:48.120 These are the companies

00:30:50.140 that will let me get away

00:30:51.620 with anything.

00:30:54.260 These are the organizations

00:30:55.860 that will bow before me.

00:30:57.100 So these are the ones

00:30:57.820 I'm going to pick on.

00:31:01.060 So you're on your own.

00:31:03.300 Have fun with that.

00:31:05.060 Let's see,

00:31:05.400 what else do we got here?

00:31:07.600 From the Washington Post,

00:31:09.780 here's a headline

00:31:10.520 that's not really a headline.

00:31:11.500 It says,

00:31:11.620 And let's put a lot of air quotes

00:31:31.900 around sex assigned at birth

00:31:33.120 because we know

00:31:33.600 that that phrase

00:31:34.180 makes no sense at all.

00:31:35.400 Your sex is not assigned at birth.

00:31:37.280 They're not,

00:31:37.660 this is not something

00:31:38.220 that the doctor decides on.

00:31:40.000 It is observed and noted.

00:31:42.720 Sex noted at birth.

00:31:44.180 Sex observed at birth,

00:31:45.300 not sex assigned at birth.

00:31:46.700 No one is assigning anything.

00:31:49.880 As I've said before,

00:31:50.840 they're not,

00:31:51.220 it's not like there's a,

00:31:52.120 they're pulling out

00:31:52.580 a filing cabinet

00:31:53.420 and saying,

00:31:54.640 okay, well,

00:31:54.900 this one's a boy.

00:31:55.440 Let's grab a penis

00:31:56.060 out of the penis filing cabinet

00:31:57.260 and put it on there.

00:31:59.140 That's not the way it works.

00:32:00.100 Now, sex assigned at birth,

00:32:01.160 that's,

00:32:01.460 it sounds like

00:32:02.060 that's how it works.

00:32:02.640 I didn't know anything

00:32:03.420 and I was coming in

00:32:04.300 like a blank slate.

00:32:05.560 I had no idea

00:32:06.280 how it,

00:32:06.880 how humanity comes to be

00:32:08.380 and what the birthing process

00:32:09.280 is like or anything.

00:32:10.320 And I was some sort of alien,

00:32:11.380 let's say,

00:32:12.060 landing here.

00:32:12.700 One of,

00:32:12.960 one of Demi Lovato's friends

00:32:15.400 landing here.

00:32:17.860 And I heard about

00:32:18.780 sex being assigned at birth.

00:32:20.120 That's what I would imagine.

00:32:22.100 I would imagine that,

00:32:23.180 oh, well,

00:32:23.400 this is a species

00:32:24.100 where they are born sexless

00:32:25.720 with no kind of genitals

00:32:28.040 or anything.

00:32:28.520 And then all of that stuff

00:32:29.700 is sort of affixed onto them

00:32:31.020 through some kind of process.

00:32:32.420 Maybe it's a lottery process.

00:32:35.720 Who knows?

00:32:36.580 That's not how it works.

00:32:37.240 Anyway,

00:32:37.820 where were we?

00:32:38.400 The guidance issued

00:32:39.220 by the Diocese of Marquette

00:32:40.480 also stipulates

00:32:41.200 that transgender people

00:32:41.860 may not receive communion

00:32:42.960 in which Catholics believe

00:32:44.320 the body and blood

00:32:45.440 of Jesus Christ

00:32:45.940 are truly present.

00:32:47.160 In most circumstances,

00:32:47.940 they cannot receive

00:32:48.580 the anointing of the sick,

00:32:49.500 which is meant to provide

00:32:50.180 physical or spiritual healing

00:32:51.140 to those who are seriously ill.

00:32:52.560 The guidance was issued

00:32:53.260 in July,

00:32:53.860 but only recently sparked

00:32:54.720 a debate after a prominent

00:32:55.580 priest and advocate

00:32:56.400 for LGBTQ Catholics

00:32:57.460 shared it on Twitter.

00:32:59.140 The document says,

00:33:00.200 the experience of incongruence

00:33:01.760 and one's sexual identity

00:33:02.740 is not sinful

00:33:03.540 if it does not arise

00:33:04.520 from the person's free will,

00:33:05.700 nor would it stand

00:33:06.280 in the way of Christian initiation.

00:33:07.580 However,

00:33:08.360 deliberate,

00:33:08.940 freely chosen

00:33:09.600 and manifest behaviors

00:33:10.780 to redefine one's sex

00:33:12.040 do constitute

00:33:12.820 such an obstacle.

00:33:13.860 This is yet another example

00:33:16.560 where the media,

00:33:17.700 I always love these stories

00:33:19.240 about the Catholic Church

00:33:20.180 and the media

00:33:20.480 because they have no idea,

00:33:22.840 any story that deals

00:33:24.780 with religion,

00:33:25.400 these are godless heathens

00:33:26.760 and they haven't been

00:33:28.780 inside a church

00:33:29.420 since they were probably

00:33:30.820 three years old.

00:33:31.540 If they went inside one now,

00:33:32.460 they burst into flames.

00:33:33.460 So they have no idea

00:33:34.180 what they're talking about

00:33:35.100 and they act surprised

00:33:37.780 and shocked

00:33:38.340 and they make headlines

00:33:39.300 out of these policies

00:33:41.080 of the Catholic Church

00:33:42.080 or teachings of the Catholic Church

00:33:43.100 that have been in place

00:33:44.420 since forever,

00:33:45.960 right?

00:33:46.740 And that this is the case everywhere.

00:33:50.580 All dioceses,

00:33:51.600 let me,

00:33:51.800 I have news for you.

00:33:53.900 Media,

00:33:54.620 anyone on the left,

00:33:55.220 it's even worse than you think

00:33:56.260 because all dioceses have

00:33:58.380 or should have anyway

00:33:59.520 this exact policy

00:34:01.060 because it is a sin

00:34:03.460 to reject your sex,

00:34:05.680 to mutilate your body,

00:34:07.220 to deny your biological selfhood.

00:34:12.420 These are sins.

00:34:13.940 Of course they are.

00:34:16.420 Just think about,

00:34:17.500 now,

00:34:17.720 this idea

00:34:18.960 that you can be born

00:34:21.200 in the wrong body

00:34:22.100 and that this is a problem

00:34:25.460 that has to be corrected

00:34:26.440 through surgery,

00:34:27.860 hormones,

00:34:28.460 whatever.

00:34:30.000 This makes no sense

00:34:31.380 on a purely scientific,

00:34:33.060 biological level.

00:34:33.840 So if we're engaging

00:34:36.100 with this

00:34:36.580 from a secular perspective,

00:34:37.860 that makes no sense at all.

00:34:39.520 Born in the wrong body?

00:34:40.520 What are you talking about?

00:34:42.160 In that case,

00:34:43.020 you are your body.

00:34:44.080 That's all you are.

00:34:45.100 So what is in the wrong body exactly?

00:34:47.220 What do you mean?

00:34:48.960 My brain is in the wrong body.

00:34:50.740 Your brain is part of your body.

00:34:52.040 You might as well say

00:34:52.540 that you have,

00:34:53.080 well,

00:34:53.300 this is not the right left arm.

00:34:54.420 I should have a different left arm.

00:34:56.080 It makes no sense

00:34:57.380 from a scientific perspective.

00:34:58.620 No sense.

00:34:59.240 But from a religious perspective,

00:35:02.700 which is how the Catholic Church

00:35:04.900 is going to approach this,

00:35:06.480 or again,

00:35:07.160 should be approaching it,

00:35:08.260 it makes even less sense.

00:35:10.300 And it's not just

00:35:11.100 that it makes sense,

00:35:11.900 it's also,

00:35:12.480 it's blasphemy.

00:35:14.540 Because now you're saying

00:35:15.700 that if someone

00:35:17.120 made a mistake here,

00:35:17.860 what,

00:35:17.980 it was God?

00:35:19.680 God accidentally,

00:35:20.880 what,

00:35:21.160 infused a female soul

00:35:23.220 into a male body?

00:35:24.920 It was a mistake

00:35:25.880 on the celestial

00:35:26.980 assembly line?

00:35:28.620 Now what you are saying

00:35:31.280 is that God

00:35:32.020 made a mistake,

00:35:33.980 a rather severe,

00:35:35.740 serious mistake

00:35:37.660 of putting

00:35:38.460 the wrong soul

00:35:39.660 into the wrong body.

00:35:42.560 And so you are,

00:35:43.300 what you're saying is

00:35:43.820 I have to correct

00:35:44.700 God's mistake.

00:35:47.100 God gave me this self,

00:35:49.040 but this is the wrong self.

00:35:50.900 I reject it,

00:35:52.040 and I'm going to try

00:35:52.580 to make a new one.

00:35:55.320 Of course that's sinful.

00:35:56.780 That's pride.

00:35:58.340 That's blasphemy.

00:35:59.200 That's sacrilege.

00:35:59.940 That's all of the

00:36:01.280 deadly sins

00:36:02.420 wrapped into one package.

00:36:05.800 And this is,

00:36:06.760 this is not

00:36:07.560 my opinion

00:36:08.700 of

00:36:09.300 the Christian approach

00:36:11.600 to this subject.

00:36:12.380 This is the,

00:36:13.360 there is no alternative.

00:36:17.180 Because the only alternative

00:36:18.540 would be to either

00:36:19.700 take,

00:36:20.720 remove God

00:36:21.360 from the equation entirely,

00:36:22.900 in which case

00:36:23.560 this thing still

00:36:24.480 makes no sense,

00:36:25.100 or it's to make God

00:36:27.480 certainly something

00:36:28.680 much less than

00:36:29.720 omnipotent

00:36:31.360 and omniscient,

00:36:33.440 all-powerful

00:36:34.020 and all-knowing.

00:36:35.000 Now you have a God

00:36:36.020 who's a sort of a,

00:36:36.900 what,

00:36:37.440 a bumbling idiot.

00:36:40.280 He has no idea

00:36:41.180 what he's doing

00:36:41.580 when he's fashioning people.

00:36:45.920 I made you

00:36:46.700 in your womb.

00:36:47.380 I, you know,

00:36:48.000 I knew you

00:36:48.420 before you were born,

00:36:49.260 and apparently

00:36:49.720 this is a process

00:36:50.880 rife with mistake.

00:36:51.840 All right.

00:36:55.380 What else do we got here?

00:36:57.780 So,

00:36:58.560 Steven Spielberg's

00:36:59.300 West Side Story

00:36:59.960 adaptation was released

00:37:01.300 this weekend,

00:37:02.460 and it flopped.

00:37:03.640 I just wanted to mention this.

00:37:04.740 Huge marketing push

00:37:05.620 behind it.

00:37:06.480 Rave reviews,

00:37:07.160 lots of hype.

00:37:08.940 Nobody cared.

00:37:10.740 Had a,

00:37:11.380 a,

00:37:11.720 a $10 million opening,

00:37:13.760 and that's for a

00:37:14.360 $100 million movie.

00:37:16.200 Directed by the most

00:37:17.080 famous director

00:37:17.780 probably in the history

00:37:18.460 of Hollywood.

00:37:19.060 That's a big failure.

00:37:19.860 And the media,

00:37:21.380 as always with these

00:37:22.340 kinds of things,

00:37:23.140 when a,

00:37:23.380 when a movie is all

00:37:24.760 this marketing,

00:37:25.360 everything,

00:37:25.940 and,

00:37:26.020 and what,

00:37:27.580 what really sends them

00:37:29.120 for a loop

00:37:29.740 is that they told us,

00:37:31.120 because like I said,

00:37:31.640 it got rave reviews.

00:37:32.280 Like they have like 98%

00:37:33.260 of Rotten Tomatoes

00:37:33.880 or something.

00:37:34.900 And so they told us

00:37:36.580 that the movie is good.

00:37:37.980 They specifically told us

00:37:39.540 that it's good

00:37:39.960 and we should watch it.

00:37:41.140 And,

00:37:41.580 and nobody is.

00:37:43.220 And that makes them

00:37:44.060 confused and scared

00:37:45.260 and,

00:37:46.700 and also really angry.

00:37:47.900 And so there are

00:37:48.460 all these articles now.

00:37:49.260 What went wrong?

00:37:49.980 Why isn't anyone

00:37:50.520 watching West Side Story?

00:37:51.360 Let me,

00:37:51.660 let me,

00:37:52.060 let me explain.

00:37:52.920 I'll tell you why.

00:37:53.580 Okay.

00:37:54.620 Number one,

00:37:56.140 it was really three reasons.

00:37:57.920 Number one,

00:37:58.500 the movie is woke.

00:38:00.400 There is,

00:38:01.100 of course it is.

00:38:02.440 Because every movie is now.

00:38:03.560 Every major Hollywood movie is.

00:38:05.280 They,

00:38:05.500 they all are

00:38:06.480 and they all will be

00:38:07.380 for the foreseeable future.

00:38:08.340 So we know that going in.

00:38:10.140 But we know in this case,

00:38:11.160 there's a trans character

00:38:12.300 played by a non-binary actor

00:38:14.260 and they made a big deal

00:38:15.060 about that.

00:38:16.160 They made a big deal

00:38:17.040 about how inclusive

00:38:17.820 the movie is

00:38:18.520 and all this kind of stuff.

00:38:20.140 And,

00:38:20.580 now,

00:38:22.180 that's how they marketed it.

00:38:24.340 They're talking about

00:38:25.140 the diversity of the cast

00:38:26.540 and it's inclusive.

00:38:28.200 I haven't seen the movie.

00:38:29.320 I don't plan on watching it.

00:38:30.120 So I don't know how

00:38:31.000 in your face

00:38:32.160 the wokeness actually is

00:38:33.260 when you watch it,

00:38:33.920 but that's how they marketed it.

00:38:36.380 That's the foot

00:38:37.120 they decided

00:38:37.640 to put forward here.

00:38:38.560 and the audience

00:38:40.080 doesn't want that.

00:38:41.420 Nobody in the audience

00:38:42.480 wants that.

00:38:43.400 Nobody.

00:38:43.720 Now,

00:38:44.200 there are certain segments

00:38:45.280 of the audience

00:38:45.760 that might applaud

00:38:46.760 the PC movies

00:38:47.620 in theory,

00:38:49.340 but they don't watch them.

00:38:52.160 Nobody actually,

00:38:52.900 they might sit back,

00:38:54.560 maybe for most of them

00:38:55.900 aren't really big movie fans anyway.

00:38:57.820 They're not the type

00:38:58.280 to go to the theater.

00:38:59.280 So they'll sit back

00:39:00.060 and they'll kind of,

00:39:00.660 oh,

00:39:00.880 isn't that so nice?

00:39:02.340 That's inclusive.

00:39:03.840 They're not going to watch it

00:39:04.980 because it's boring.

00:39:07.300 It's not real.

00:39:08.180 We want exciting stories.

00:39:11.380 We want stories

00:39:12.420 that have something real to say,

00:39:16.900 something of substance.

00:39:19.800 And something of substance

00:39:20.600 cannot be the sort of lecture

00:39:22.660 we might hear

00:39:23.980 in an HR job orientation seminar

00:39:27.100 about diversity

00:39:28.520 and inclusion and tolerance.

00:39:30.060 So nobody wants it.

00:39:30.820 That's the first problem.

00:39:32.380 Second problem is

00:39:33.180 West Side Story

00:39:33.920 as a movie

00:39:34.920 is corny as hell

00:39:35.980 and it's just not a good story.

00:39:37.600 Now,

00:39:38.020 I admit,

00:39:38.420 I saw the original movie

00:39:39.280 like once.

00:39:40.040 I'm not a musical fan,

00:39:42.120 so I admit that.

00:39:42.860 So maybe I'm not

00:39:43.560 a good judge here.

00:39:46.140 But it struck me

00:39:47.080 as it's a much cheesier

00:39:48.360 Romeo and Juliet

00:39:49.220 and maybe the music

00:39:50.620 is good for a musical.

00:39:51.880 I won't try to judge

00:39:52.820 that part of it.

00:39:53.980 And I admit,

00:39:54.500 with musicals,

00:39:55.180 it's like,

00:39:55.720 I'm trying to get

00:39:56.400 into the story

00:39:57.100 and then,

00:39:58.360 and we've got

00:39:58.800 good guys and bad guys,

00:39:59.760 protagonists,

00:40:00.300 antagonists,

00:40:00.800 and I'm getting into the story.

00:40:01.620 And then they all break out

00:40:02.660 into a choreographed

00:40:03.660 dance number

00:40:04.160 and it takes me out.

00:40:05.400 The fourth wall

00:40:06.560 is totally shattered

00:40:07.660 right then.

00:40:09.740 It's a fourth wall

00:40:10.820 breaking moment

00:40:11.720 to the,

00:40:12.920 it would be like

00:40:14.680 if I could see

00:40:16.500 on camera

00:40:17.800 the buffet

00:40:19.340 table

00:40:21.080 in the back there

00:40:21.980 where the extras

00:40:22.620 and everything

00:40:22.980 are having a snack.

00:40:23.820 Okay?

00:40:24.540 That's what it's like

00:40:25.320 for me

00:40:25.560 in terms of

00:40:26.000 breaking the fourth wall.

00:40:26.860 It takes me out of this

00:40:27.440 and makes me realize again,

00:40:28.360 oh,

00:40:28.460 this is just a story.

00:40:29.180 And especially

00:40:30.620 when they're supposed

00:40:31.200 to be

00:40:31.680 these rival gangs

00:40:33.800 intimidating

00:40:34.800 and now they're doing

00:40:36.480 ballet

00:40:37.100 dances

00:40:38.200 in the middle

00:40:38.720 of the

00:40:39.080 middle of the

00:40:40.420 alleyway

00:40:40.940 to intimidate each other.

00:40:42.320 So that's,

00:40:43.140 that's a problem.

00:40:44.400 And,

00:40:44.960 and then the third problem

00:40:46.100 is that

00:40:46.700 people are just tired

00:40:47.900 of the remakes

00:40:48.480 and rehashes.

00:40:49.860 They're tired of them.

00:40:50.980 So,

00:40:51.380 we've seen all these

00:40:52.980 things before.

00:40:53.600 If you want to watch

00:40:54.360 West Side Story,

00:40:55.320 we all have access

00:40:56.700 to all of these movies

00:40:57.860 because everybody

00:40:59.680 is subscribed

00:41:00.320 to 50 different

00:41:01.680 streaming services.

00:41:02.700 So we all,

00:41:03.700 we all have

00:41:04.340 immediate access

00:41:05.560 within the blink

00:41:06.440 of an eye

00:41:06.900 and the speed of light.

00:41:07.700 We can access

00:41:08.440 like every movie

00:41:09.720 that's ever been made

00:41:10.380 in history.

00:41:11.460 And so if you're,

00:41:12.720 if you're just giving us

00:41:13.700 the same thing

00:41:14.240 we already have,

00:41:15.380 then what incentive

00:41:16.480 is there to watch?

00:41:17.740 So,

00:41:18.180 that hopefully

00:41:20.600 explains that.

00:41:22.200 Finally,

00:41:22.720 one other thing

00:41:23.180 to note here,

00:41:23.900 there's a,

00:41:27.180 there was an article

00:41:28.180 about police

00:41:30.260 in,

00:41:30.580 in the UK

00:41:31.100 and how now,

00:41:32.920 this is in the Times,

00:41:34.780 UK newspaper,

00:41:36.640 about how police

00:41:37.320 in the UK

00:41:37.640 are now going to start

00:41:38.500 logging,

00:41:39.840 you know,

00:41:40.180 in their records

00:41:41.000 when they arrest someone,

00:41:42.140 if they arrest a rapist,

00:41:43.360 a sex offender,

00:41:44.360 someone who committed

00:41:44.820 this violent sex offense,

00:41:46.420 they're going to

00:41:47.060 log that person

00:41:48.500 in the official records

00:41:49.540 as a woman,

00:41:50.880 even if it was a man,

00:41:51.980 if the person identifies

00:41:52.900 as a woman.

00:41:53.900 And so what,

00:41:55.280 because they,

00:41:56.000 if someone is a rapist

00:41:57.320 and rapes a woman,

00:41:59.240 what they're saying now

00:42:00.720 is,

00:42:00.960 well,

00:42:01.040 we're going to respect

00:42:01.820 their self-identity

00:42:02.580 because,

00:42:03.420 yes,

00:42:03.620 this is a violent rapist,

00:42:04.700 but we wouldn't want

00:42:05.440 to hurt his feelings

00:42:06.300 or interfere

00:42:07.840 with his perception

00:42:08.960 of himself

00:42:09.620 in any way whatsoever.

00:42:10.700 So now we're going

00:42:11.600 to see this,

00:42:12.800 probably increase

00:42:13.740 this surge

00:42:14.500 of women rapists.

00:42:17.840 And there are women

00:42:18.720 rapists out there,

00:42:19.560 but it's not nearly

00:42:20.300 as common as male rapists.

00:42:22.220 And now we're going

00:42:22.920 to see this surge

00:42:23.460 because we're respecting

00:42:25.340 the self-identity

00:42:26.080 of women rapists.

00:42:28.200 Now I bring this up

00:42:28.720 because J.K. Rowling,

00:42:30.020 the way that I came

00:42:30.760 across this news

00:42:31.500 is J.K. Rowling

00:42:32.400 was trending on Twitter

00:42:34.360 because everybody's

00:42:34.880 mad at her again.

00:42:36.300 And she had shared

00:42:37.480 an article about this

00:42:38.620 and was critical of it.

00:42:40.940 And she wrote,

00:42:42.400 war is peace,

00:42:43.200 freedom is slavery,

00:42:44.180 ignorance is strength,

00:42:45.280 the penist individual

00:42:46.220 who raped you

00:42:46.880 is a woman.

00:42:48.340 And all the left

00:42:49.220 is very upset

00:42:49.800 and they're complaining

00:42:50.460 about it

00:42:50.900 and attacking her

00:42:51.720 as always.

00:42:52.580 I just wanted to say

00:42:53.360 about J.K. Rowling.

00:42:54.840 Now,

00:42:55.600 you can look at

00:42:57.100 what she's done

00:42:57.600 over the last few years

00:42:58.520 and being so outspoken

00:42:59.860 on this issue,

00:43:01.000 on the trans issue,

00:43:02.300 and you could say,

00:43:03.720 well, she's not risking

00:43:05.000 anything because she has

00:43:05.960 a zillion dollars

00:43:06.740 and what does she have

00:43:07.800 to lose?

00:43:10.080 And I get that,

00:43:11.440 but I think it's more

00:43:12.600 accurate to look at it

00:43:13.420 from the other way

00:43:14.040 and say,

00:43:14.840 what does she have

00:43:15.500 to gain?

00:43:16.260 She has nothing

00:43:17.060 personally to gain

00:43:17.980 from this.

00:43:18.840 In fact,

00:43:19.140 she has everything

00:43:19.820 to lose,

00:43:20.920 which is why

00:43:22.480 when you look at

00:43:23.540 other people

00:43:24.060 of her stature

00:43:24.860 and people who

00:43:26.720 have more money

00:43:27.800 than her or less,

00:43:29.280 anyone in that realm,

00:43:30.720 really famous,

00:43:32.060 influential,

00:43:32.960 wealthy people,

00:43:34.440 almost none of them.

00:43:36.180 I think she might be

00:43:36.780 like the only one

00:43:37.840 who is really speaking

00:43:38.840 out on this issue

00:43:39.800 the way that she has been.

00:43:42.140 And that's because,

00:43:43.300 yeah,

00:43:43.720 you could look at it

00:43:44.540 like I've got all this

00:43:45.220 money,

00:43:45.440 what do I have to lose?

00:43:46.980 But what do we see

00:43:47.820 with rich people

00:43:48.440 whenever they get cancer?

00:43:49.880 They are the quickest

00:43:50.680 to fold

00:43:51.200 because they look at it

00:43:53.300 the other way.

00:43:54.120 They see,

00:43:54.540 I have only,

00:43:55.320 all I can do is lose.

00:43:57.420 I have nothing to gain

00:43:58.500 by standing strong here.

00:44:01.040 And people,

00:44:01.660 as they get more successful

00:44:02.600 and they have more money,

00:44:03.560 there is this retrenchment

00:44:04.760 that kind of happens

00:44:05.520 and you get more cautious

00:44:06.860 and you figure,

00:44:08.100 okay,

00:44:08.220 I've found my groove.

00:44:09.480 I got all this money

00:44:10.000 coming in.

00:44:10.560 I've got all this respect.

00:44:11.640 I've got everything

00:44:12.180 in the world.

00:44:13.420 And so any risk I take,

00:44:15.200 it's one thing

00:44:15.660 when you're still scrappy

00:44:17.080 and you're kind of

00:44:17.900 climbing up the ladder

00:44:18.760 and you've got to take risks,

00:44:20.340 you know,

00:44:20.920 and then everything you do,

00:44:22.400 you could lose everything

00:44:23.140 but you could also gain everything.

00:44:24.640 When you get to the top,

00:44:26.420 then you start thinking,

00:44:27.180 I'm already at the top.

00:44:28.100 So any risk I take,

00:44:30.500 I'm at the summit now.

00:44:32.720 So if I start jumping around

00:44:33.760 and taking risks

00:44:34.360 and everything,

00:44:34.960 all I could do

00:44:35.540 is fall down the mountain.

00:44:36.380 I can't go any higher.

00:44:37.580 And that's what most

00:44:38.260 famous rich people do.

00:44:40.260 J.K. Rowling isn't doing that.

00:44:41.220 I think she deserves

00:44:41.760 a lot of respect for that.

00:44:43.600 It's actually very brave.

00:44:44.820 And the other thing

00:44:45.260 that confuses me about this

00:44:47.420 is that from what I've noticed,

00:44:50.840 the right is not really

00:44:52.620 rallying around J.K. Rowling

00:44:54.480 the way that we often do

00:44:57.840 with celebrities

00:44:58.640 who speak out

00:44:59.760 and say something we agree with.

00:45:01.560 Now, you could point out

00:45:02.800 that J.K. Rowling

00:45:03.600 probably disagrees

00:45:04.640 with conservatives

00:45:05.200 on every other issue.

00:45:06.940 If she knew who I was,

00:45:08.240 she would probably

00:45:10.000 hate my guts,

00:45:10.560 which would hurt me deeply

00:45:11.400 as a fellow

00:45:11.980 best-selling children's author.

00:45:13.340 And maybe that's part

00:45:13.960 of the reason

00:45:14.200 why I'm defending her here

00:45:15.000 because I have

00:45:16.000 that connection with her.

00:45:17.020 But yeah,

00:45:17.340 she probably would hate my guts

00:45:18.280 if she knew who I was.

00:45:19.080 She would send me

00:45:19.820 to the gulag.

00:45:20.320 I get it.

00:45:22.400 But this is one

00:45:23.220 of the most important issues

00:45:24.020 of our time.

00:45:25.180 She's stayed firm

00:45:25.960 on it for years.

00:45:27.720 And it's not like

00:45:28.440 she just said one thing,

00:45:31.300 one simple statement.

00:45:32.540 She has been repeatedly

00:45:35.080 outspoken

00:45:35.760 and spoken about it,

00:45:37.100 written essays

00:45:37.620 and everything,

00:45:38.020 spoken about it

00:45:38.480 quite eloquently

00:45:39.120 and insightfully.

00:45:42.020 And yet there hasn't been

00:45:42.920 this rallying point

00:45:43.640 around her

00:45:43.980 to the same extent

00:45:44.800 when you look at,

00:45:46.460 I mean,

00:45:46.800 on the right,

00:45:47.820 we rally around Kanye West

00:45:49.820 or, you know,

00:45:51.020 who was the,

00:45:51.460 was it Cardi B

00:45:53.160 or one of these

00:45:53.720 female rappers?

00:45:54.920 They say,

00:45:55.760 they utter one sentence

00:45:57.840 we agree with.

00:45:59.360 We hate everything else

00:46:00.440 they say and do.

00:46:00.980 They utter one sentence

00:46:02.440 we agree with.

00:46:03.700 Not even on a central core issue.

00:46:05.600 It could just be,

00:46:06.600 I hate taxes

00:46:07.780 or cancel,

00:46:09.040 you know,

00:46:09.540 I don't know about

00:46:10.020 this cancel culture thing.

00:46:11.000 I don't really like it.

00:46:12.300 And that's it.

00:46:12.840 And we are smitten.

00:46:14.480 Okay?

00:46:14.860 We got,

00:46:15.360 we have hearts in our eyes

00:46:17.100 and we're seeing stars

00:46:18.680 and everything

00:46:19.040 and we want to rally

00:46:20.780 around that person

00:46:21.460 and hold them up

00:46:22.360 as a champion.

00:46:26.340 Even though they didn't

00:46:27.180 even say anything

00:46:27.680 all that interesting.

00:46:29.320 And usually within

00:46:30.320 a couple of days

00:46:31.060 because they've got

00:46:32.180 the wrong people

00:46:32.860 rallying to them

00:46:33.600 so they'll apologize

00:46:34.500 and back down.

00:46:36.820 Yet rallying

00:46:37.520 on this central core issue

00:46:38.880 where she has actually

00:46:40.140 spoken about it

00:46:40.880 eloquently,

00:46:41.760 insightfully,

00:46:42.280 and powerfully

00:46:42.940 and sucked to her guns.

00:46:47.380 She's not getting

00:46:48.060 the same support

00:46:48.560 from the right

00:46:48.940 which I find really,

00:46:49.760 really interesting.

00:46:50.780 When you're at the pump

00:46:51.680 these days

00:46:52.140 it may seem like

00:46:52.880 all downside

00:46:53.680 and it is for most people

00:46:55.640 unless you have

00:46:56.400 the Get Upside app.

00:47:50.800 All right,

00:47:51.040 let's get now

00:47:51.600 to the comment section.

00:47:52.380 Do you know their name?

00:47:55.960 They're the sweet baby gang.

00:48:00.620 Erica says,

00:48:01.380 Simone Biles winning

00:48:02.320 Athlete of the Year

00:48:03.080 is such a slap in the face

00:48:04.120 to all of the other athletes

00:48:05.100 who actually had major wins

00:48:06.380 at the Olympics,

00:48:06.940 including one of her own teammates

00:48:07.980 who performed even better

00:48:09.040 than expected

00:48:09.600 and won the gold medal

00:48:10.840 on the individual all around.

00:48:12.100 There are many other Olympians

00:48:13.060 who also had huge victories,

00:48:14.240 all of whom are more worthy

00:48:15.340 of Athlete of the Year.

00:48:17.200 It didn't bother me

00:48:17.760 that Simone pulled out

00:48:18.860 of the Olympics,

00:48:19.600 but it does bother me

00:48:20.480 that she gets recognition

00:48:21.720 over all the other Olympians,

00:48:23.160 including her teammates,

00:48:23.880 who did perform their best

00:48:25.500 and who were successful.

00:48:29.020 Yeah,

00:48:29.480 this is what I said

00:48:30.060 about Simone Biles

00:48:30.600 from the very beginning.

00:48:31.900 I thought what she did

00:48:33.000 in pulling out was cowardly,

00:48:34.480 but if that's all it was,

00:48:35.840 if she had simply pulled out

00:48:37.080 and quit on her team

00:48:37.840 and everybody reacted to that

00:48:40.000 in a common sense kind of way,

00:48:42.480 in a rational way,

00:48:43.400 and we had said,

00:48:43.920 well,

00:48:44.060 that's too bad,

00:48:44.620 that's disappointing,

00:48:45.500 but that was her choice

00:48:46.880 and that's what she did,

00:48:47.420 and then we all moved on,

00:48:48.860 it would be fine.

00:48:49.760 I never would have said

00:48:50.540 a word about Simone Biles,

00:48:51.900 but as is often the case,

00:48:55.760 it's the reaction

00:48:56.740 that turns it into an issue.

00:49:00.820 It's the reaction.

00:49:01.740 It's when the media

00:49:02.400 comes around and says,

00:49:04.500 oh, you know what?

00:49:05.180 No, but you have to celebrate this.

00:49:06.380 This is actually courageous.

00:49:10.380 And again,

00:49:11.000 if their response

00:49:12.420 had simply been,

00:49:13.340 oh, let's be sympathetic for her.

00:49:14.700 We don't know

00:49:14.980 what she's going through.

00:49:16.200 You know,

00:49:16.920 let's not judge her too harshly.

00:49:18.220 But once again,

00:49:19.320 I probably would have

00:49:19.980 had no problem with that.

00:49:20.640 I would have said anything.

00:49:22.720 Okay, fine.

00:49:24.420 You know, all right.

00:49:25.280 She's still a young woman.

00:49:27.380 She's in the Olympics.

00:49:28.000 A lot of pressure

00:49:28.800 on her shoulders.

00:49:29.460 I get it.

00:49:31.340 But when you tell me

00:49:32.420 that it's virtue,

00:49:33.860 when you tell me

00:49:34.680 that it's courageous,

00:49:36.340 when you tell me

00:49:36.860 I have to celebrate it,

00:49:39.340 okay,

00:49:39.580 now I have to speak up

00:49:40.640 and say no.

00:49:42.280 And I think that is a problem,

00:49:43.380 so you're right with that.

00:49:44.480 And as far as being awarded

00:49:45.860 Athlete of the Year,

00:49:46.720 it's all virtue signaling.

00:49:48.220 Right?

00:49:48.720 Nothing is authentic anymore

00:49:49.760 in our culture.

00:49:51.300 Our Women of the Year,

00:49:52.640 our Men,

00:49:53.320 our Athletes of the Year,

00:49:54.420 our Quitters.

00:49:56.200 It's the death of realness,

00:49:58.480 of authenticity.

00:50:01.260 It's a real existential catastrophe,

00:50:04.500 you might say.

00:50:05.840 Okay,

00:50:06.180 Bear of Divinity says,

00:50:07.400 hey, Matt,

00:50:08.020 a big fan of the show.

00:50:08.940 When they accused

00:50:09.580 Johnny the Walrus

00:50:10.180 of being anti-trans,

00:50:11.240 it sounds like

00:50:11.920 that they were not only

00:50:13.060 engaging in gay erasure,

00:50:14.260 but also transphobia

00:50:15.320 towards trans species.

00:50:16.600 It's your thoughts.

00:50:19.000 I think you're

00:50:19.760 exactly right about that.

00:50:23.040 You know,

00:50:23.480 there are people

00:50:23.940 who have said that

00:50:24.860 really it should be

00:50:25.740 LGBTQIA

00:50:26.940 and we need to add the W

00:50:28.120 on the end

00:50:28.600 for Walrus.

00:50:29.480 And I think I agree with that.

00:50:32.000 By the way,

00:50:32.620 a quick update

00:50:33.040 on that story,

00:50:33.860 though.

00:50:35.480 Amazon did remove me

00:50:36.820 from the LGBT category,

00:50:38.380 as I know you heard

00:50:39.100 if you listen to this show.

00:50:39.840 And that was

00:50:40.900 a human rights abuse.

00:50:42.160 It was a hate crime

00:50:42.740 against me

00:50:43.260 as an LGBT author

00:50:44.840 and as a straight gay icon.

00:50:51.360 But when,

00:50:53.380 I think it was LGBTQ News

00:50:55.120 or one of these other,

00:50:55.960 one of these gay news sites

00:50:57.920 reached out to Amazon

00:50:58.700 for comment.

00:50:59.980 They said that,

00:51:01.520 yeah,

00:51:01.780 I was taken off

00:51:03.060 of the LGBT category,

00:51:05.340 but they're not going

00:51:06.060 to take me off the site

00:51:06.760 because I have not

00:51:07.420 violated any guidelines.

00:51:08.420 So I'm safe there.

00:51:09.780 I'm actually not going

00:51:10.620 to get taken down

00:51:11.300 from Amazon

00:51:11.660 because I haven't

00:51:12.620 violated guidelines,

00:51:13.920 which technically is true

00:51:15.400 because, you know,

00:51:16.060 the book doesn't actually

00:51:17.280 say anything about,

00:51:19.160 it doesn't technically

00:51:20.240 directly say anything

00:51:21.320 about transgender people

00:51:22.180 or LGBT.

00:51:24.140 So,

00:51:25.500 skate and buy on the technicality,

00:51:26.740 which means you can go

00:51:27.280 to Amazon right now

00:51:28.040 and buy Johnny the Walrus.

00:51:33.320 Cindy says,

00:51:34.140 I love how Matt

00:51:34.760 breaks his showdown

00:51:35.640 into four soothing,

00:51:36.800 predictable sections.

00:51:38.420 Predictable?

00:51:41.360 You're banned from the show,

00:51:42.340 but thanks for listening.

00:51:43.580 Vitor says,

00:51:44.980 how does their relationship

00:51:46.260 work out?

00:51:47.000 Funny thing,

00:51:47.740 Ellen Page

00:51:48.660 is actually now divorced.

00:51:50.780 The love of my life

00:51:51.800 lasted about three years,

00:51:53.060 I guess.

00:51:53.980 But yeah,

00:51:54.120 I didn't realize that.

00:51:54.840 So we played the clip

00:51:55.560 on Stephen Colbert's show,

00:51:57.720 Ellen Page

00:51:58.540 doing her emotional,

00:52:01.680 tearful monologue

00:52:02.500 about Jussie Smollett

00:52:03.660 shortly after he first

00:52:05.140 perpetrated the hoax.

00:52:06.040 and she has a picture

00:52:07.460 of her and her wife.

00:52:08.540 I guess she had just

00:52:09.000 gotten married

00:52:09.640 and she calls,

00:52:10.840 she says,

00:52:11.420 Mike Pence wants to stop

00:52:12.800 this from happening.

00:52:13.660 This is the love of my life.

00:52:15.280 And then a few years later

00:52:16.040 she's divorced.

00:52:17.280 So it's not funny,

00:52:18.180 but it is a little bit.

00:52:19.280 Well,

00:52:19.640 and of course

00:52:19.940 they're getting divorced,

00:52:20.540 by the way.

00:52:22.060 Her wife is a lesbian

00:52:23.280 who married a woman.

00:52:25.040 So she wasn't in the bargain

00:52:29.280 to marry a man.

00:52:32.200 This is part of the narcissism,

00:52:35.260 part of what makes

00:52:35.820 all this sinful,

00:52:36.720 this I'm going to control

00:52:37.920 my identity,

00:52:38.840 I'm going to be

00:52:39.240 who I say I want to be.

00:52:40.860 Because not only is it

00:52:43.160 a rejection of biology,

00:52:45.540 not only is it a rejection

00:52:46.380 of God's plan for you,

00:52:47.580 but it is also a rejection

00:52:49.620 of your role in your family

00:52:52.500 and in your marriage.

00:52:55.040 And if you have kids,

00:52:57.500 like what you're saying

00:52:58.060 to all these people

00:52:59.040 is I'm going to take,

00:53:01.480 if you're say a man

00:53:02.680 and you have a wife and kids

00:53:04.340 and you've got parents

00:53:05.800 and you've got siblings,

00:53:07.960 what you're saying

00:53:08.420 to your family now

00:53:09.060 is I'm going to take

00:53:10.060 your son from you

00:53:10.820 and your brother

00:53:11.440 and your husband

00:53:12.120 and your father.

00:53:13.680 I'm taking him away.

00:53:15.600 And in his place

00:53:16.640 I'm putting this person

00:53:17.960 and I am requiring

00:53:20.220 that you play along

00:53:21.340 with this now charade.

00:53:22.760 That old person is dead now.

00:53:24.320 In fact,

00:53:25.180 to even say his name

00:53:25.900 is to dead name him.

00:53:27.720 I am taking him away from you.

00:53:29.440 Sorry, kids.

00:53:30.400 You don't have a daddy anymore.

00:53:31.420 You have two moms.

00:53:33.380 Is that a sin?

00:53:34.320 Oh, yeah, for sure.

00:53:35.860 The Biden administration's

00:53:37.140 unconstitutional vaccine mandate

00:53:38.640 is not doing very well in court.

00:53:40.300 Not only has the OSHA mandate

00:53:41.500 received a nationwide stay,

00:53:43.280 but the U.S. Senate

00:53:43.820 has just voted 48 to 52

00:53:45.200 against Biden's federal mandate.

00:53:47.500 However, the issue

00:53:48.200 now goes to the Democrat-led House

00:53:49.960 who will likely push it through.

00:53:51.940 So this is on top

00:53:53.080 of the Biden winter COVID plan

00:53:55.120 where they've extended

00:53:56.080 the mask mandate.

00:53:56.920 They're talking about

00:53:57.440 possibly vaccine passports

00:53:58.780 to travel domestically.

00:54:01.000 So that's what's at stake here

00:54:02.080 and that's why we have

00:54:02.620 to continue to fight back.

00:54:04.280 Our collective voices

00:54:05.280 have never been more important

00:54:06.360 in the fight for freedom.

00:54:07.540 And now's your chance

00:54:08.040 to add your voice to the fight.

00:54:09.120 If you haven't signed a petition

00:54:10.020 against Biden's vaccine mandate,

00:54:11.700 I need you to head on over

00:54:12.380 to dailywire.com

00:54:13.440 slash do not comply

00:54:14.420 right now to add your name.

00:54:16.040 We need to send

00:54:16.940 an overwhelming message

00:54:17.900 to the Biden administration.

00:54:18.920 Last I checked,

00:54:20.740 we're over 750,000 signatures.

00:54:22.380 We want to get to a million.

00:54:23.220 We will get there.

00:54:24.040 We need your help.

00:54:24.520 Go to dailywire.com

00:54:25.660 slash do not comply right now.

00:54:28.360 And after you do that,

00:54:30.000 well, do that after the show

00:54:31.160 because we've got one more segment

00:54:31.880 and then you do that.

00:54:32.560 And then the next step

00:54:33.800 is to go to johnnythewalrus.com

00:54:35.720 and pick up my best-selling,

00:54:38.360 beloved, revered, celebrated,

00:54:41.840 LGBT bestseller,

00:54:44.460 Johnny the Walrus.

00:54:45.120 It is available right now

00:54:47.680 and Amazon,

00:54:49.360 as we just talked about,

00:54:50.240 is not banning it.

00:54:50.940 So it's on Amazon,

00:54:51.680 which means that we can keep it.

00:54:53.260 It's been kind of living

00:54:54.140 in the top 10,

00:54:54.900 going back and forth.

00:54:55.720 We got it all the way

00:54:56.180 up to the top five.

00:54:58.000 But, you know,

00:54:58.840 it's the longer

00:55:00.040 it's in the top 10,

00:55:01.820 the funnier this entire thing is.

00:55:03.120 That's really,

00:55:03.540 that's my,

00:55:04.240 one of my primary sales pitches.

00:55:05.820 But maybe the more important

00:55:06.860 detail here

00:55:07.640 is that we're fighting back

00:55:08.660 against the woke-ifying

00:55:10.160 of children's books.

00:55:12.060 So go to johnnythewalrus.com

00:55:13.700 right now

00:55:14.080 and pick up your copy of the book.

00:55:15.520 Now let's get to our

00:55:16.240 daily cancellation.

00:55:21.220 Today we cancel a man

00:55:22.360 by the name of

00:55:22.900 Dr. Ty Winters.

00:55:25.240 Now what you should know

00:55:26.160 about Dr. Winters

00:55:26.760 is that he is a very woke doctor.

00:55:29.080 And that's important context here.

00:55:30.220 He calls himself

00:55:30.680 a social justice warrior

00:55:32.140 in his Twitter bio.

00:55:33.900 And needless to say,

00:55:34.680 he lists his pronouns,

00:55:36.020 which are he, him,

00:55:36.840 by the way.

00:55:37.660 He also includes

00:55:38.460 the hashtag

00:55:39.280 fight with your privilege.

00:55:41.060 Hashtag fight with your privilege.

00:55:42.340 I think what he means

00:55:43.880 is probably fight

00:55:44.740 against your privilege

00:55:45.680 or fight your privilege.

00:55:47.240 But the phrasing

00:55:47.800 makes it sound like

00:55:48.560 he's exhorting us

00:55:49.700 to fight with it,

00:55:50.820 meaning use it

00:55:52.620 like a weapon.

00:55:53.680 And when I say

00:55:54.000 fight with your sword,

00:55:55.120 like fight with your privilege,

00:55:56.940 use it as a weapon.

00:55:58.140 It sounds like,

00:55:58.680 that sounds like

00:55:59.480 what he's saying,

00:56:00.240 which ironically

00:56:00.760 is exactly what he does.

00:56:02.620 Now the rest of his page

00:56:03.640 is littered

00:56:04.140 with all kinds of woke graffiti.

00:56:05.920 He's also affiliated

00:56:07.040 with something called

00:56:07.720 the tour for diversity.

00:56:09.160 In summary,

00:56:10.860 Dr. Winters

00:56:11.280 is very concerned

00:56:12.300 with racism

00:56:12.880 and microaggressions

00:56:13.840 and diversity

00:56:14.400 and tolerance

00:56:14.980 and all the things

00:56:15.800 that you're required

00:56:16.400 to care about these days.

00:56:18.040 And wouldn't you know,

00:56:19.380 what a strange turn of events.

00:56:21.140 Recently,

00:56:21.680 Dr. Winters

00:56:22.220 had an interaction

00:56:23.020 with somebody

00:56:23.600 who just so happened

00:56:25.180 to reinforce

00:56:25.820 all of these talking points.

00:56:27.380 It's crazy how that happens.

00:56:28.160 It's a pretty common coincidence.

00:56:29.960 The people who spend

00:56:30.780 the most time

00:56:32.700 talking about racism

00:56:34.080 are usually the ones

00:56:35.640 who happen to encounter

00:56:36.920 the most absurdly racist people

00:56:38.480 in real life.

00:56:39.640 Only we never see

00:56:40.660 those encounters.

00:56:41.380 We just have to take

00:56:41.960 their word for it.

00:56:43.260 Strange how that happens.

00:56:44.760 So the doctor tweeted

00:56:45.600 this on Friday

00:56:46.400 along with a selfie

00:56:48.520 where he appears

00:56:49.220 wearing a full suit

00:56:49.960 with a badge

00:56:50.460 that says,

00:56:50.940 doctor.

00:56:52.000 The tweet says,

00:56:53.220 walking down the hallway

00:56:54.140 when stopped by someone.

00:56:55.840 Excuse me,

00:56:56.380 you're housekeeping, right?

00:56:57.980 I replied,

00:56:58.620 no,

00:56:58.920 but I can try to help you

00:56:59.780 if you need something.

00:57:01.000 The person looks down

00:57:01.720 at my badge.

00:57:02.660 Oh, you're a doctor?

00:57:04.260 Sorry,

00:57:04.760 you look like

00:57:05.260 the custodial staff.

00:57:08.480 My God.

00:57:11.140 I mean,

00:57:11.380 I shouldn't be laughing.

00:57:11.960 It's terrible.

00:57:12.540 The racism is out of control

00:57:14.500 because that obviously

00:57:16.360 is the not at all

00:57:17.120 subtle point here.

00:57:18.060 The other person

00:57:18.860 was clearly racist

00:57:19.760 and that's why they assume

00:57:20.920 that a black man

00:57:21.560 must be a janitor.

00:57:23.020 And the tweet quickly

00:57:23.600 went viral

00:57:24.140 with lots of leftists

00:57:24.960 sharing it

00:57:25.400 and expressing outrage.

00:57:26.760 I mean,

00:57:26.920 they were flabbergasted.

00:57:28.940 They knew racism

00:57:29.880 was bad in America,

00:57:30.900 but it's even worse

00:57:31.780 than they thought.

00:57:32.680 How could white people

00:57:33.420 be so racist

00:57:34.240 that they'd think

00:57:35.020 that a man in a full suit

00:57:36.320 at a hospital

00:57:36.940 is part of the custodial staff

00:57:38.780 just because he's black?

00:57:41.180 Well,

00:57:41.560 let me clear up

00:57:41.940 the mystery for you.

00:57:44.520 Luckily,

00:57:45.040 white people

00:57:45.760 are not that racist

00:57:46.480 because this never happened.

00:57:49.520 They only,

00:57:50.780 the only thing

00:57:51.800 that would make this

00:57:52.260 less believable

00:57:52.960 is if he claimed

00:57:54.340 that the person

00:57:54.860 poured bleach on his head

00:57:56.040 and shouted,

00:57:56.700 this is a MAGA hospital.

00:57:59.240 Nobody is going to,

00:58:00.240 I'll tell you this,

00:58:00.980 no one is going to think

00:58:02.220 that a man in a full suit

00:58:04.080 and tie at a hospital

00:58:05.120 is a janitor.

00:58:06.760 That's not the janitorial uniform.

00:58:09.460 Have you ever seen

00:58:10.220 a man in a suit

00:58:10.880 push a mop?

00:58:11.880 Like,

00:58:12.060 have you ever,

00:58:12.380 you've ever witnessed

00:58:13.040 that anywhere?

00:58:13.700 I never have.

00:58:16.120 Is this supposed to go

00:58:17.040 the reverse way too,

00:58:18.080 I wonder?

00:58:18.920 Could I walk down the street

00:58:20.020 as a white man

00:58:21.020 with like no shirt

00:58:22.720 and no shoes

00:58:23.620 and a ripped pair of jeans

00:58:24.880 covered in mud

00:58:25.620 and somebody runs up to me

00:58:28.060 and goes,

00:58:28.420 excuse me, sir,

00:58:29.220 you're a heart surgeon, right?

00:58:30.700 Come with me quick.

00:58:31.320 My dad's having a heart attack.

00:58:32.200 Are these the kinds

00:58:35.160 of assumptions

00:58:35.620 that Dr. Winters

00:58:36.520 thinks white people make?

00:58:38.700 But as always

00:58:39.480 with these hate hoaxes,

00:58:40.380 the hoaxer accidentally reveals

00:58:41.760 that he has never been around

00:58:43.320 an actual white racist

00:58:44.380 in his life,

00:58:45.200 which is good news

00:58:46.460 because if he had,

00:58:48.380 he'd know that

00:58:48.920 even racist white people

00:58:50.240 are aware

00:58:50.860 that non-white people

00:58:52.080 are doctors.

00:58:53.220 You couldn't possibly

00:58:53.960 spend any time

00:58:54.740 in a hospital

00:58:55.300 anywhere in the country

00:58:56.280 without encountering

00:58:57.480 that reality.

00:58:58.940 It is a very common thing

00:59:00.860 to see non-white doctors.

00:59:03.220 Also,

00:59:03.900 even the most racist person

00:59:05.060 in the world

00:59:05.480 wouldn't look a black guy

00:59:06.680 in the face

00:59:07.260 and say,

00:59:08.120 you look like

00:59:08.820 the custodial staff.

00:59:10.720 No one is saying that.

00:59:12.480 Come to think of it,

00:59:13.220 nobody would say

00:59:13.840 the phrase custodial staff

00:59:15.300 in regular conversation.

00:59:17.700 Maybe if you're a doctor

00:59:18.820 and you only hang out

00:59:19.600 with doctors,

00:59:20.500 that's how you speak.

00:59:22.860 But no one is saying that.

00:59:24.420 I've never heard

00:59:24.900 a normal person

00:59:25.860 in regular conversation

00:59:26.560 refer to

00:59:27.200 the custodial staff.

00:59:28.720 And normal people

00:59:30.100 also don't refer

00:59:30.900 to janitors

00:59:31.460 at hospitals

00:59:32.000 as housekeeping.

00:59:33.880 These are all things

00:59:34.840 that make sense

00:59:35.580 in the privileged

00:59:36.480 elitist mind bubble

00:59:37.860 that Dr. Smollett lives in.

00:59:40.420 Speaking of which,

00:59:41.400 the really surprising thing

00:59:42.260 about the Smollett case

00:59:42.980 was just how lazy

00:59:44.720 the hoax was.

00:59:45.500 And this is always

00:59:46.160 the case with these hoaxes.

00:59:47.900 He planned it out

00:59:49.100 and invested in it

00:59:50.700 financially,

00:59:51.480 but he showed

00:59:52.480 very little attention

00:59:53.240 to detail,

00:59:53.820 especially when it came time

00:59:54.880 to execute the hoax.

00:59:56.520 So, for example,

00:59:57.040 the police chief in Chicago

00:59:58.220 who, at the time,

00:59:59.460 the police chief,

01:00:00.200 who arrested Smollett

01:00:01.120 was on the news this weekend

01:00:02.100 talking about

01:00:03.120 one of the many red flags

01:00:04.380 that tipped him off

01:00:05.060 that this was all a hoax.

01:00:06.020 There were a lot of red flags

01:00:06.880 that he goes through,

01:00:07.420 but here's the one

01:00:08.880 that for him

01:00:09.840 was decisive.

01:00:11.180 Listen to this.

01:00:12.300 Well, looking back on it,

01:00:13.820 the part about the news,

01:00:15.260 but what really struck us oddly

01:00:17.760 because at that time

01:00:18.960 I had been a cop

01:00:19.620 30 years,

01:00:20.380 31 years,

01:00:21.220 and so I had been

01:00:22.840 in the detective division

01:00:24.280 working homicides

01:00:25.260 a lot back

01:00:27.140 when I was a sergeant.

01:00:28.340 What really struck us all

01:00:30.080 was the fact that

01:00:32.360 he got attacked

01:00:33.460 on the coldest night

01:00:34.580 of the year

01:00:35.040 during the polar vortex.

01:00:36.780 I remember the polar vortex.

01:00:38.160 I was here for a trip.

01:00:39.360 Yeah.

01:00:39.720 The planes were frozen,

01:00:41.040 the pipes were frozen.

01:00:41.940 It was insanely cold.

01:00:43.500 Yeah.

01:00:43.900 So nobody was out.

01:00:45.160 There were no people

01:00:46.240 walking their dogs

01:00:47.180 like you might see

01:00:48.000 late at night.

01:00:48.940 But I'll tell you

01:00:49.560 one thing that really

01:00:50.500 tipped us off

01:00:51.300 that there was a problem.

01:00:52.760 If somebody gets

01:00:54.240 jumped like that

01:00:55.320 and, okay,

01:00:56.420 so let me back up a bit.

01:00:58.080 He went to a Subway

01:00:59.220 sandwich shop

01:01:00.220 at like 2 in the morning

01:01:01.340 to get a sandwich.

01:01:02.560 Okay, that's fine.

01:01:03.880 He comes back,

01:01:05.360 gets attacked

01:01:06.200 in a hate crime,

01:01:07.960 supposed hate crime.

01:01:09.800 And during all

01:01:10.820 this scuffle,

01:01:11.720 they poured bleach

01:01:12.920 on him and all of this.

01:01:15.160 When he got up

01:01:16.200 and went into

01:01:16.740 his apartment building,

01:01:17.720 he still had

01:01:18.360 that Subway sandwich

01:01:19.440 with him.

01:01:20.160 That doesn't happen.

01:01:21.400 So Smollett went

01:01:22.660 through all that trouble,

01:01:23.660 recruited two Nigerians,

01:01:25.880 went out in a polar vortex,

01:01:27.800 but didn't think

01:01:29.300 to drop the sandwich

01:01:30.400 or even to scuff

01:01:32.080 the sandwich up

01:01:32.760 a little bit

01:01:33.160 to make it look like

01:01:33.840 it had just been

01:01:34.300 in the middle

01:01:34.620 of a violent struggle.

01:01:36.200 The sandwich

01:01:36.620 was pristine,

01:01:37.480 apparently.

01:01:38.720 It was the nicest sandwich

01:01:39.700 anyone's ever seen

01:01:40.380 from Subway.

01:01:41.260 Normally,

01:01:41.840 all Subway sandwiches

01:01:42.800 look like they just

01:01:43.420 got jumped.

01:01:44.320 So that made

01:01:45.280 this sandwich's

01:01:45.980 immaculate condition

01:01:46.980 all the stranger

01:01:48.020 for the police.

01:01:49.540 The point is that

01:01:50.420 the hoaxers don't

01:01:51.440 bother to attend

01:01:52.140 to details.

01:01:54.260 Dr. Winters Smollett II

01:01:55.580 didn't take a few minutes

01:01:57.300 to come up with

01:01:58.020 some credible lines

01:01:58.880 of dialogue

01:01:59.400 to put into the mouth

01:02:00.540 of his fictional antagonist.

01:02:02.420 He just typed this out

01:02:03.900 in a dash

01:02:04.460 and hit send.

01:02:07.360 Fight with your privilege.

01:02:08.580 That's exactly

01:02:09.280 what he's doing,

01:02:10.120 just like Smollett,

01:02:11.480 just like all the hoaxers.

01:02:13.180 They are so insulated

01:02:14.440 from actual strife

01:02:15.580 and struggle

01:02:16.060 and certainly

01:02:16.540 from actual bigotry

01:02:17.520 that they fetishize it.

01:02:19.460 And yet,

01:02:21.400 they can't act out

01:02:22.420 these roles

01:02:23.000 or invent these stories

01:02:24.280 believably

01:02:24.760 because they've never

01:02:25.480 encountered

01:02:26.040 these sorts of people

01:02:27.020 that they're inventing.

01:02:29.580 And for that,

01:02:30.400 they should be

01:02:30.880 very grateful.

01:02:33.020 But instead,

01:02:33.840 their privilege

01:02:34.220 makes them bitter

01:02:35.160 and weirdly resentful.

01:02:38.580 And this is what

01:02:39.360 it drives them to.

01:02:40.860 Which is why,

01:02:41.740 I must say,

01:02:42.200 that Dr. Ty Winters

01:02:43.400 is just the latest hoaxer,

01:02:45.580 and certainly not the last,

01:02:46.800 on this show

01:02:47.300 to be canceled.

01:02:49.380 And we'll leave it there
