Today on the Matt Wall Show, leftists scream out in abject terror as Elon Musk completes
00:00:04.900
his purchase of Twitter. We will revel in their despair today. Also, as my children's book,
00:00:09.120
Johnny the Walrus, is finally released, we'll take a look at the horrifying children's book
00:00:12.300
that is currently the bestseller in the category. It's written by the American Academy of Pediatrics,
00:00:16.880
and if you've been paying attention, you know that that's a very bad sign. Plus,
00:00:20.140
a boy physically assaults a girl at a high school in Atlanta, but the students are taking the boy's
00:00:24.260
side because the girl used a naughty word, apparently. And in our daily cancellation,
00:00:27.500
Rolling Stone has a glowing profile of furries who are sexually attracted to
00:00:31.880
cartoon animals. All of that and more today on the Matt Wall Show.
00:00:44.860
Home values are now up 19%. These gains have become an important financial tool for homeowners because
00:00:50.960
you're able to access the equity as cash at incredibly low interest rates. This makes it
00:00:54.940
easier to pay off high interest debt, fund home renovations, or do whatever you need
00:00:58.620
because it's your money. Now, if this sounds like something you're interested in, it's worth a call
00:01:03.060
to American Financing to learn more because they're going to provide a free mortgage review so you can
00:01:07.380

00:01:17.600

plus tens of thousands long term. And you're going to get all of that when you call 866-569-4711.

00:01:45.080
So yesterday, the sun went dark. The earth shook and trembled. Fire raged across the land,
00:01:52.600
consuming all in its wake. The screams of the forsaken masses could be heard rising up
00:01:57.800
with the smoke. Horror of horrors. The ultimate nightmare had come to pass. Elon Musk taking
00:02:04.960
control of Twitter. The Twitter corporate board had, for so many years before this, hugged Twitter's
00:02:11.880
users tightly against its bosom, protecting them and rocking them softly to sleep each night.
00:02:17.380
But that was all over yesterday. It abandoned them. Abandoned us all to the cold in the night,
00:02:22.480
where there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth and lots of memes also, presumably.
00:02:27.600
Twitter has officially accepted Elon Musk's offer to buy the company for $43 billion.
00:02:33.300
Now, tragically, the company will be run by a billionaire,
00:02:36.560
billionaire, as opposed to before when it was run by different billionaires. Elizabeth Warren made a
00:02:42.500
good point when she tweeted yesterday, this deal is dangerous for our democracy. Billionaires like
00:02:48.220
Elon Musk play by a different set of rules than everybody else, accumulating power for their own
00:02:52.940
gain. We need a wealth tax and strong rules to hold big tech accountable. Yes, it is dangerous to
00:02:59.560
have a billionaire in charge of a social media platform. That's why those of us who are so upset by
00:03:03.920
this turn of events and who absolutely refuse to use a site that is owned by a billionaire now must
00:03:09.200
deactivate our accounts and give all of our business to Facebook and Instagram and TikTok instead.
00:03:16.160
You know, the ones that aren't run by billionaires. But I think the real question that we all face now
00:03:21.600
is how do we explain this to our children? You know, I've already had the difficult conversation
00:03:27.300
last night as I was weeping in the living room, which is my usual nightly routine, of course.
00:03:32.080
My three-year-old pangender child Moonbeam came in and asked, Matt, with Elon Musk taking over
00:03:38.940
Twitter, will hate speech be normalized? Is our democracy in grave peril? Is our country on the
00:03:46.500
verge of destruction? Is life even worth living anymore? And I looked back at them and answered,
00:03:52.160
yes, yes, yes, and no. And then we simply held each other and sobbed uncontrollably.
00:03:57.560
It was sad yet beautiful. A beautiful moment with me and Moonshine or whatever my fake kid's name is
00:04:03.760
in this joke. To be honest, originally, I'd planned to keep the sarcasm going for the entire opening
00:04:07.660
monologue. But then I realized that that would deprive me of the opportunity to gloat more openly and
00:04:12.580
blatantly, which is what I really want to do. So I'll switch gears here. And instead, I'll let
00:04:16.580
the libs speak for themselves. Fortunately, Nazi propagandist libs of TikTok has compiled a few
00:04:23.000
authentic lib reactions to the news from TikTok. And, well, here's how they're taking it.
00:04:28.000
You know, they really make some good points, actually. It would possibly be slightly easier
00:04:54.740
to understand if we listen to them one at a time, though. So let's do that instead.
00:05:00.480
Well, it looks like Twitter's gone. They accepted the money. And Elon Stalin is taking over. So
00:05:08.740
f*** you, Twitter. And goodbye forever, you insane Q-like forum. Or soon to be insane Q-like forum.
00:05:18.740
Elon Musk, this is directly to you. Enjoy Twitter. I just deactivated mine. I will not be reactivating
00:05:32.040
I deactivated my account and deleted the app. That's what I think of it. F*** Elon Musk.
00:05:37.640
Today, Twitter has announced that they've been bought by Elon Musk, or however you say his name.
00:05:46.580
I'm not interested in staying on Twitter anymore because of this. And I think there's a lot of
00:05:51.140
people that are about to leave. So I just wanted to let everyone know that you can find me here.
00:05:57.040
I'm going to also share this on Twitter before I deactivate my account so that anyone who wants
00:06:01.900
to follow me can find me here as well. Hey, I did a thing today. I deactivated my Twitter account.
00:06:15.320
On second thought, that wasn't much more coherent, I suppose. Though I'm sure Elon Musk is devastated
00:06:20.360
by the incisive, searing wit of these TikTok libs. I'm not sure how he'll ever recover from,
00:06:26.320
you know, things like Elon, Stalin. Indeed, I bet he's now rethinking the whole thing now that we've
00:06:33.380
learned that at Tammy Clove, at Queenie Bella, and at Snurfy Boo are leaving the site. That was one of
00:06:41.640
the users there on TikTok, Snurfy Boo. Look, a Twitter without Snurfy Boo is just not the same.
00:06:49.540
On the plus side, however, race hustler Sean King actually did deactivate his account nearly as soon
00:06:55.160
as the news was announced. And that alone is worth $43 billion. Many other prominent leftists
00:07:01.100
vowed to leave the platform, though most of them appear to still be on the platform as of this
00:07:05.400
morning. I mean, a lot of these people have been tweeting over and over and over again about how
00:07:09.920
they're not going to use the platform anymore. And yet they're still using it to talk about how
00:07:14.580
they're not going to use it. Perhaps their accounts merely identify as deactivated. I don't know.
00:07:19.700
Another common complaint has been that Elon Musk is spending his money on buying Twitter when he could be
00:07:25.060
using it to end world hunger, because world hunger is all his fault. John Fugelsang tweeted,
00:07:31.000
for $44 billion, a guy could have gone down in history for ending world hunger. History will
00:07:36.340
record that our mega billionaires had other priorities. Now, funny, I don't remember those
00:07:42.440
kinds of criticisms when Jeff Bezos used his money to buy the Washington Post. But the criticisms
00:07:49.140
would have been stupid in that case also, because in fact, even the richest men in the world don't
00:07:55.400
have enough money to end world hunger. There is no amount of money that could wipe out world hunger.
00:08:01.640
If I had $10 trillion to dedicate to wiping out world hunger, there would still be world hunger,
00:08:09.080
even after the $10 trillion is spent, or rather wasted. Because a lot of the hunger in the world is due
00:08:16.020
not to a simple lack of resources, but to corrupt and incompetent governments and regimes.
00:08:22.520
Throwing money at that problem isn't going to solve it. In fact, many times it could make it a lot worse,
00:08:26.420
as we have seen time and time and time again. Meanwhile, groups like Human Rights Watch and the
00:08:32.940
ACLU are raising different concerns. They're issuing dire warnings about the epidemic of hate speech that
00:08:38.180
may now be coming for us and coming to Twitter because of Elon Musk. These worries were echoed all over
00:08:44.380
cable news, especially by Brian Stelter. Listen to this.
00:08:48.700
If you, if you get invited to something where there are no rules, where there is total freedom
00:08:55.040
for everybody, do you actually want to go to that party? Or are you going to decide to stay home?
00:09:00.420
And that's a question for Twitter users. Some Twitter users might love the idea that there's
00:09:04.640
going to be absolutely no moderation and no rules at all. Others might not want to be anywhere near
00:09:08.780
that. Am I crazy, Matt? No, you're right. And what happens to the advertising? I mean,
00:09:12.640
if there's no moderation or little moderation, do the advertisers stay away? What does that do to
00:09:17.120
the business prospects for Twitter itself? There's just something perfect about this because I can
00:09:22.100
totally imagine Brian Stelter standing outside of a party and saying, excuse me, I need to know the
00:09:27.180
ground rules for this party before I come in. Do you have the rules posted anywhere? I want to make
00:09:32.100
sure everyone is following the rules. This isn't one of those parties without rules, is it?
00:09:37.180
And then everybody inside the party will just look at him and say, you weren't invited, Brian.
00:09:40.920
What are you doing here? Stop hiding in the bushes, you weirdo. Go home.
00:09:47.760
Of course, minor detail here. Stelter is lying, obviously. Musk has never said that there will
00:09:52.560
be no moderation at all. I mean, that's the thing about all this panicking. He's going to get rid
00:09:56.760
of the rules. He actually never said he was going to do that. But it is fascinating to see the
00:10:02.000
evolution. The left has gone from the counterculture to the hall monitors, pushing up their glasses and,
00:10:07.800
you know, prattling on about the rules. The left, you know, they're now the kid in your class who
00:10:14.180
reminds the teacher to give out the homework assignment. They're that kid. Over on MSNBC,
00:10:20.320
they're raising concerns that sound somehow oddly familiar. Listen.
00:10:25.560
You own all of Twitter or Facebook or what have you. You don't have to explain yourself. You don't
00:10:31.260
even have to be transparent. You could secretly ban one party's candidate or all of its candidates,
00:10:37.280
all of its nominees. Or you could just secretly turn down the reach of their stuff and turn up
00:10:42.000
the reach of something else. And the rest of us might not even find out about it till after the
00:10:46.480
election. Elon Musk says this is all to help people because he is just a free speech,
00:10:58.200
Yes. Wouldn't it be terrible if that happened? I mean, just imagine, allow yourself to entertain
00:11:03.400
this crazy hypothetical where big tech companies target people based on their politics and censor
00:11:09.560
information in order to influence the outcome of an election. Just imagine that. Of course,
00:11:14.840
you don't have to imagine it. You already lived through it. Conservatives have experienced exactly
00:11:19.640
that sort of thing for years. And despite what this guy at MSNBC might say, the fact is that Elon
00:11:25.120
Musk has made no indication that he's going to put the shoe on the other foot and start censoring
00:11:28.980
and stifling leftist speech in that way. As satisfying as that might be from a vengeance
00:11:33.720
perspective. But he's not going to do that. And they know he's not going to do that.
00:11:39.040
Musk has shown no inclinations in that direction. What they're worried about is exactly what
00:11:43.920
Brian Stelter said and what the ACLU and various pseudo human rights groups are now fretting
00:11:48.900
about. They're panicking not over the possibility that speech will be stifled, but over the threat
00:11:54.420
that it will no longer be stifled. For years, they insisted that conservative speech was not
00:11:59.700
being censored or suppressed. Now they're running around like their hair is on fire. Well, Brian
00:12:04.380
Stelter isn't running around like his hair is on fire, but you know what I'm saying? Because
00:12:07.680
conservative speech will no longer be censored and suppressed. So, you know, how quickly we went
00:12:12.380
from that isn't happening to that is happening and actually it's good and it has to keep happening.
00:12:19.880
We've seen this kind of transition countless times. And now we're seeing it finally with the
00:12:24.720
issue of free speech. Where we went from free speech isn't under attack, you conspiracy theorists,
00:12:31.100
to actually free speech is bad and should be under attack. Another viral leftist reaction to the Musk
00:12:39.780
news makes this point, I think, very clear. Listen to this.
00:12:44.040
Are you concerned about the rise of American fascism? Well, today you can be more concerned.
00:12:50.280
It's almost certain that with this move, Trump is going to come back to social media. I mean,
00:12:55.780
this has so many horrific implications. I'm not even sure where to start to be completely honest
00:13:01.180
with you. There is a problem with this idea of free speech and that is where is the limit? Free
00:13:07.260
speech has the ability to incite some really horrific and hateful things. Like, for instance,
00:13:13.320
an insurrection. If this a** owns Twitter, the world is going to be a much worse place. And it's not
00:13:19.740
just him. This is a problem across social media, but certainly this isn't making the problem better.
00:13:23.960
Anyway, I imagine there's going to be a mass exodus from Twitter. In fact, Newsweek even posted how
00:13:29.660
to delete your Twitter account an hour ago. I didn't have a Twitter account ever until I joined
00:13:34.360
this app to go and look at news and stuff. So it's not that bad, you know, not having one. I just have
00:13:40.560
a very strong feeling that the extremism on the right is going to get more significant after this.
00:13:46.080
Yes, we have to censor speech in order to avoid fascism. See how that works. Where are the limits
00:13:55.820
to free speech, he asks? What are the limits? And he provides the answer. They all provide the answer.
00:14:00.880
All opinions that differ from his own are beyond the limits or ought to be. So they've dropped the
00:14:06.840
act almost, at least for now, they've dropped it. This internet, the internet is a party with rules,
00:14:14.920
they say. And the rules are that one side doesn't get to speak. Or those were the rules. Now the left,
00:14:22.320
at least on one platform, will have to figure out how to engage with opposing ideas or at a minimum
00:14:27.700
tolerate them. And if they can't do that, and they certainly can't do that, then they'll just have to
00:14:33.500
make do with the platforms that still censor their opponents and welcome their speech and welcome only
00:14:38.760
their speech. So in other words, every other platform on the internet pretty much is what they'll
00:14:42.660
have to make do with. Somehow I think they'll survive. Now let's get to our five headlines.
00:14:53.820
You know, it's always a great idea to keep learning new skills. And the copy is telling me to riff about
00:14:58.360
skills I'd like to learn. But really, that's hard for me to do because I have zero skills at all. So
00:15:02.500
really, I'd like to learn any skill whatsoever. And if you're in that boat, or even if you have some
00:15:09.300
skills, we want to learn a few more, if you're always learning, it keeps you sharp like ZipRecruiter.

address, ZipRecruiter.com slash Walsh. That's ZipRecruiter.com slash W-A-L-S-H. ZipRecruiter,
00:15:58.000
the smartest way to hire. I can tell you, if I'm Elon Musk, here's my agenda coming in the door.
00:16:04.960
First of all, I'm going to investigate all of the censorship and the dishonest practices in the
00:16:10.440
past and reveal all of it. Because it's good to come in and clean up shop, but we also need to
00:16:18.200
know what happened before. That's one of the best things about Elon Musk taking over is that he's
00:16:23.560
going to have access to all that information. Now we're going to know for sure. The things that we
00:16:27.440
already know happened, now we're going to have the proof of it. We're going to see it all in writing
00:16:34.220
probably. And there need to be reparations even. There should be reparation programs for
00:16:42.000
conservatives on Twitter to make up for what we experience. Then I'm going to, if I'm Elon Musk,
00:16:48.900
I would just fire almost everybody and hire all new people because you're going to need to do that.
00:16:55.560
And it's quite revealing actually that the reports are now that Twitter, after they announced the sale
00:17:02.940
of Twitter, they've shut down a lot of the functionality behind the scenes so that changes
00:17:09.440
can't be made because they're worried about their own employees sabotaging the platform. So that tells
00:17:14.320
you what they know about their employees. So if you're Elon Musk coming in, then you got to just
00:17:18.780
basically fire everybody. And then make the algorithms public, which he's already said he would
00:17:24.720
do. Make them totally transparent. And then also if I'm Elon Musk, I'm going to hire the host of the
00:17:32.140
Matt Wall show in the Daily Wire as the new chief diversity officer. That's probably, that's probably
00:17:36.020
in fact, priority number one. So I'm still waiting to get the call from Elon Musk. All right, let's start
00:17:42.240
with this. You know, it's a tough week for our dear friends on the left for the reasons we've just
00:17:48.100
reviewed. And to add insult to injury, my bestselling LGBT children's book is finally being released.
00:17:54.960
You know, we announced the book a few months ago. They sold out in less than a day. We had to print
00:17:59.600
a whole new batch and those new books are shipping out today. And the good news is also that you can
00:18:05.240
buy the book today and you won't have to wait months for it to come, if you can believe it or not.
00:18:09.380
You can just buy it and it'll come like the next day or two days from now. We have copies available
00:18:13.260
for purchase, a lot of copies. And this all presents a wonderful opportunity for us.
00:18:18.100
Because Johnny the Walrus, my book about a young boy who identifies as a walrus,
00:18:22.300
has already been, as you may have heard, a bestselling children's book, bestselling LGBT
00:18:27.300
book, bestselling book overall. But let us just imagine together, let us picture the possibility
00:18:32.940
that we get it charting as a bestseller again this week amid everything else that's happening.
00:18:40.740
I think we can do that together and we must. Especially when you consider what is currently
00:18:47.340
what books are currently charting as bestsellers on Amazon. One of the top books, and in fact,
00:18:54.840
this was the number one children's book overall on Amazon yesterday. Now I think it's dropped down
00:18:59.280
slightly. It's in the top five. But this is a book that was just released. It's called
00:19:03.300
Uology, A Puberty Guide for Everybody. Now this book is, if you're wondering who published it,
00:19:09.980
this is a book published by the American Academy of Pediatrics. All right? So it's not even just one
00:19:15.540
wacky left-wing writer. This is the American Academy of Pediatrics. And they published this book on
00:19:21.080
puberty. And this is how bad it's gotten. That you already know what's in this book.
00:19:30.120
You already know that it's bad. Because the American Academy of Pediatrics is behind it.
00:19:35.420
And the subject is puberty. So just to give you an idea, there's a chapter in this book,
00:19:40.980
one of the best-selling children's books on Amazon, which is being marketed to kids nine through 12.
00:19:47.420
And there's a chapter called When Puberty Doesn't Feel Right. And I'm just going to read a little bit
00:19:53.860
of this chapter to you. Because this is a book that nine-year-olds are going to be reading.
00:19:59.040
And I guarantee you, given the fact that this is published by the American Academy of Pediatrics,
00:20:04.560
it's going to be in schools. And if anybody complains about it, the schools are going to say,
00:20:09.100
what, do you have a problem with science and medicine? It's the American Academy of Pediatrics.
00:20:12.960
It's as mainstream as you can possibly get. Well, here's what it says. Chapter 12,
00:20:19.080
When Puberty Doesn't Feel Right. It says, and then it kind of starts with a little story about a girl
00:20:27.220
named Kimmy. Quinn, Jasmine, Nancy, and I are getting ready for bed, stepping around the sleeping
00:20:33.160
bags that form a circle on Nancy's bedroom floor. I take my pajamas to the corner and turn my back
00:20:38.240
to the others as I change. Quinn is changing at the same time and isn't paying attention,
00:20:42.040
and Jasmine is looking for something in her bag. But then Nancy looks over at me right as I'm changing
00:20:46.440
my shirt. I try to cover my chest, and Nancy looks away quickly. But I know she saw my flat chest.
00:20:51.900
Nancy says, I still have a super flat chest too. I can't wait to finally start puberty.
00:20:57.840
I hate blooming so much later than everybody else. I finish putting on my pajamas, and then I take a
00:21:02.640
deep breath. My body will never grow breasts on its own because I'm trans, I say, looking at Nancy
00:21:09.420
until she meets my eyes. But it's something that I have options for and that I talk with my doctors
00:21:14.900
about. And then it goes on, thanks for telling us. We won't tell anyone else, Quinn says. Then Quinn
00:21:20.780
explains that they don't identify as a boy or a girl, so they know what it's like to get questions
00:21:25.460
about gender expectations. I talk with my doctor about being non-binary too. It's nice to have
00:21:31.160
somebody who can help my parents and me figure out what's going to work best for my body. Okay, so
00:21:35.880
in this, I have to keep repeating, book by the American Academy of Pediatrics, if you think you can
00:21:42.980
still trust doctors in the medical profession, you can't, period. You especially can't trust them with
00:21:49.420
your kid. And that's just, I wish that was not the case. Because I understand the implications of
00:21:57.060
saying that you just cannot trust the medical profession anymore at all, but you can't. Because
00:22:02.660
this is what you're getting from them. And already in this, we've got a story about the sleepover with
00:22:12.400
little girls. And in this sleepover they're telling us about, one of the girls is trans and
00:22:18.400
one is non-binary. So you've got a small collection of girls and two of them are, at least two,
00:22:27.040
are in that category. Which actually accurately reflects the situation that our daughters are in,
00:22:35.860
that they face socially. That's how prevalent this stuff is. In fact, if you send your daughter to a
00:22:41.480
sleepover with five other girls, there's a statistically almost, it's almost certain
00:22:46.620
statistically that one of them is going to identify, at least one will identify as trans or
00:22:50.380
non-binary or whatever else. And then continues, we have this fun fact. Doctors can put puberty on
00:23:02.580
pause. That's true. Doctors can prescribe medicine to stop puberty temporarily. But they do that only for
00:23:09.680
important reasons. Early puberty can cause emotional and physical problems for very young
00:23:13.820
children. It can be difficult for very young kids to manage puberty and early puberty can stunt their
00:23:17.940
growth. For those reasons, doctors may use medication to pause puberty. Then when a child is older, they
00:23:23.300
can stop the medicine and puberty will begin again. At that point, puberty will progress normally like it
00:23:27.880
does for others. Some people refer to these medications as puberty blockers, but really they don't block
00:23:32.580
puberty forever. They just put puberty on pause. And then it says, just not feeling right.
00:23:38.420
Sometimes puberty can start right on time, but the changes happening on the outside of the body
00:23:41.840
don't truly feel right. Sure, lots of kids might feel a little weird or uncomfortable about their
00:23:46.780
changing body, but for some kids, it's not just strange or new. For some, the changes on the outside
00:23:51.600
of the body don't fit with the way they feel on the inside. Or for some, the outside changes feel
00:23:56.860
completely wrong. And so they mentioned precocious puberty as a reason for puberty blockers, but then they
00:24:05.640
get to, well, yes, but there are plenty of cases where it's not precocious puberty. Everything is
00:24:10.320
physically normal with puberty, but it just doesn't feel right. And so that's when they put you on the
00:24:16.900
drugs that they claim in this book, just pause puberty and then you pick it up right back up
00:24:23.060
again. And there's no problems. There's no long-term health complications or anything, which is a total
00:24:28.720
lie. And of course, the American Academy of Pediatrics, they know that's not true,
00:24:33.140
but this is what they're telling not just to parents about their kids, but they're telling
00:24:37.680
this to kids. That you might want to use puberty blockers if it just doesn't feel right. Well,
00:24:43.960
that's quite a thing to say to kids because every kid going through puberty will at least have a season
00:25:07.780
you know, given the fact that we're mortal beings and we don't, we do not have absolute control over
00:25:13.900
our bodies. And in fact, we have no control over the natural processes that our bodies
00:25:19.060
undergo and growing and changing all that kind of stuff. We have, we have, we have little to no control over
00:25:23.720
most of that. And so everybody has times where you feel like you're, you're almost at war with your
00:25:32.200
own body, you know? And, um, when you, when you go to kids and you tell them and you give them a,
00:25:40.480
a way of understanding this and you tell them that, oh, well, if it doesn't feel right, you could
00:25:44.660
just stop it. That's always an option. And there are no side effects. There are no complications.
00:25:49.900
It's no problem. Just take the pills and stop it. Well, when you tell it to kids, you're going to
00:25:56.160
find a whole lot of kids all of a sudden lining up for puberty blockers. That's exactly what's
00:26:00.340
happening because of books like this. So all the more reason, um, to go to johnnythewalrus.com or go
00:26:07.120
to amazon.com, get my book, at least over this, this, uh, filth. Okay, let's go here next. Uh, this is
00:26:16.040
a story. We're going to play this as a news clip from WSB in Atlanta. Um, there's a controversy,
00:26:23.780
a protest at this high school in Atlanta. Um, after a, after a, a male, a male, a boy physically
00:26:33.380
assaulted a girl. And now there are protests, but who do you think the protests are on behalf of?
00:26:40.160
Whose side do you think the protesters are taking in this? I don't think you'll be shocked to discover,
00:26:44.940
but let's watch a little bit of this news report. New video at five shows a male student slapping
00:26:51.700
a female student after she called him the N word. This sled will walk out at Locust Grove High School
00:26:58.560
and channel two is Audrey Washington is live in Henry County. Audrey students are upset about the
00:27:03.280
different punishments given to these students. Right. And it's important to note that they believe
00:27:10.240
both students were wrong, but they don't believe both students were punished equally. So they walked
00:27:16.380
out of class here and protested right there inside Locust Grove High.
00:27:25.000
They chanted black lives matter as they walked out of classes here at Locust Grove High. It just
00:27:30.980
bothered me because I didn't stand up before and I thought this is the perfect time for me to stand
00:27:35.380
up now. High school senior Layla Moreau helped organize the protests this week. She says it was in
00:27:41.040
response to what happened in this video and what happened afterwards. A student shared the video with me
00:27:47.420
on Friday. We blurred the faces of the kids involved, but in the video you see a white female student call
00:27:53.460
another black male student the N word. Next, you see the boy walk up to the girl and slap her. Both students
00:28:01.440
were disciplined, but those who protested told me they believe while both students were wrong, they were not
00:28:07.500
punished equally. She got to go to class and get her education while he had to leave for his education. He
00:28:13.680
was only defending himself. Pause it there for a second. Let's pause it right there. This is, look at a lot of the
00:28:21.420
reactions on social media and of course the race hustlers, the prominent race hustlers have gotten
00:28:27.560
involved in this. I don't know if Al Sharpton has showed up yet, but I'm sure he will. Who's the
00:28:31.560
other guy? The new Al Sharpton. Ben Crump is, he's always, he parachutes down as soon as something like
00:28:38.560
this. He's on the scene. So he's probably already there as far as I know. And this is, this is the
00:28:43.880
narrative that you're, that you're hearing that in fact the boy was acting in self-defense. And we just
00:28:48.740
heard that from the student there who organized this protest. And these were, this is a mass protest of
00:28:52.840
people marching through the halls shouting black lives matter. And the narrative is that he was
00:28:59.180
just defending himself, defending himself. And you could see in the video, you've got the, the, a girl
00:29:06.960
sitting off to the side in the gym, far away from the boy. She shouts, apparently a racial slur.
00:29:14.560
That's bad. You should, it's a bad word and you should not use that bad word.
00:29:21.340
In fact, kids in school shouldn't be using any bad words. Very often they do, I'm told, but they
00:29:27.580
shouldn't. And so we should be very clear to, to the kids. We don't use bad words. That's a bad word.
00:29:32.540
You don't, you don't use it. And I'm also fine with punishing kids who use bad words. I think we
00:29:39.260
ought to do that. But she's off to the side, sitting down. She's also a girl and she shouts
00:29:46.340
this word. He walks over to her and smacks her in the face, assaults her, physically assaults her.
00:29:52.820
There's a boy physically assaulting a girl. He was defending himself. Was, was his physical safety
00:29:58.560
in jeopardy in any way whatsoever from the, from the girl who said something to him? And he had to walk
00:30:06.980
across the gym to confront her over it, defending himself. Well, no, of course his, his physical
00:30:15.260
safety was not in jeopardy whatsoever. I mean, if she had gone over and used that word or not used it
00:30:22.040
and then, and, and then physically attacked him and he hit her back as a, as a means of getting her
00:30:30.100
off of, you know, defending himself, getting her off of him, be a different story. That's not what
00:30:34.760
happened. So no, this is not physical self-defense. This is, um, but what, what we know, what we've
00:30:41.420
seen from the left is that depending on your demographics, this is all, this is all demographic
00:30:48.200
dependent. But if you fall into the right victim group, and if you, if all the intersectional points
00:30:55.840
work out in your favor, then, you know, you can use physical violence to defend your psychological
00:31:03.900
well-being. So she didn't physically attack him, but she, she used a word that might emotionally or
00:31:11.720
psychologically hurt him. Even though I can guarantee he, he hears that word from his friends all the
00:31:20.400
time. And there's a very high likelihood that he uses it himself, but he heard the word from someone
00:31:28.500
with a lighter skin color. And so that is psychologically damaging to him. And so he can
00:31:33.900
use physical violence to defend his psychological wellbeing. That's, that's the logic here. And if
00:31:40.940
there's something else, and this should already be entirely clear to you, but if it wasn't, this
00:31:45.640
should make it even more clear, um, that if you're a woman on the left, um, you have been your,
00:31:53.320
your victim points, you know, on the victim hierarchy, you've been, you're all the way down
00:31:58.580
the ladder. It didn't used to be that way. There was a time when you were a little bit higher up
00:32:04.240
toward, towards the, the pinnacle as a chief victim. And, uh, especially around then we got to
00:32:09.500
the Me Too movement. And so that was trendy for a while. And, uh, so, you know, all you just,
00:32:14.740
just being a woman afforded you a whole bunch of victim points and put you above almost everybody
00:32:19.720
else on the victim pyramid, but now you're all the way at the bottom. I mean, you're not quite
00:32:25.500
at the level of being a white male, but you're, you're just barely above that.
00:32:32.420
And what that means is that you could be physically assaulted
00:32:34.660
and, uh, everybody will take the other person's side. Let's keep watching a little bit of this
00:32:41.900
report here. Reached out to Henry County schools about the incidents and the disciplinary
00:32:46.720
allegations. A school district representative said in part, quote, we can't share disciplinary
00:32:52.200
action for students due to student privacy. Both students were disciplined based on their
00:32:57.680
code of conduct infractions. The representative went on to state school leaders have been working
00:33:03.560
with and listening to any students who needed to express their feelings or concerns on the matter.
00:33:09.800
The school day is progressing with administrators continuing to be available for any student who
00:33:15.300
needs to talk. Layla says she's been called a racial slur at the school before and wants the school
00:33:21.340
district to do more. I just want some change. I want them to, I'm just tired of the inequality
00:33:26.740
in the school. Now, we still don't know what exactly led up to the initial incident. As for what
00:33:35.860
happens next, students here told me they will be setting up a special black student organization
00:33:42.320
here at the school. That's a part of the story I'm working on for Channel 2 Action News at six.
00:33:47.240
Right now, we are live here in Locust Grove, Henry County, Audrey Washington, Channel 2 Action News.
00:33:52.320
Setting up a group and when we set up the group, of course, the number one priority, the number one
00:33:57.240
principle is that if you're a black person, you're allowed to commit physical violence if you don't like
00:34:03.840
a word. And that is, that is quite literally the position the left takes on this. That if you are
00:34:12.520
a black person, you can commit physical violence in response to a naughty word that hurt your
00:34:18.580
feelings. And, but that principle does not extend to other demographic groups. It goes without saying
00:34:27.240
that if you're a white person and a black person uses a word to you, even a racist word that you don't
00:34:33.300
like, you, of course, cannot hit them for that. That's crazy. You can't hit somebody because they
00:34:37.240
said a word. No, that is a, that's a privilege that extends only to racial minorities, not to white
00:34:44.280
people. And that is their actual position that they take. The students say that, oh, it's a, it's unfair
00:34:51.300
because there was unequal punishment. Yeah, well, sane, common sense adults know or should know that,
00:34:59.420
yeah, well, you have an unequal punishment because these were unequal infractions. One is a naughty
00:35:05.640
word. The other is physical violence. But when you filter it through identity politics, all, all of that
00:35:13.940
becomes a twisted upside down and backwards and everything else. Okay. This is from CNBC. It says
00:35:18.260
throughout the pandemic, many adults turn to a likely safety net. Their parents from buying food to paying
00:35:23.860
for their cell phone plans or covering health and auto insurance. Half of parents with a child over 18
00:35:28.560
provide them with at least some financial support, according to a report by savings.com. These
00:35:33.440
parents are shelling out roughly a thousand dollars a month on average on such expenses, the report
00:35:37.140
found. Young adults just starting out have faced significant financial hurdles over the last few
00:35:41.680
years, including an uneven job market, the hefty student loan bills from schools and soaring housing
00:35:45.720
causes. And so now the news is that half of parents with adult children are providing them with
00:35:54.780
financial support. Now, the thing about that is, you know, on one hand, this is, this is how it should
00:36:01.160
work. Like I would much rather hear that parents are providing financial assistance to their kids
00:36:07.360
than their kids are getting financial assistance from the government. You know, you should be,
00:36:10.820
it's going to family members to help you out when you're in a tight spot. That's how that's supposed
00:36:15.100
to work. That's what families are supposed to do for each other. And it's good to have that,
00:36:18.780
have that kind of, have that sort of, that's the safety net that should be in place. That's the way
00:36:25.180
it ought to work. Rather than having government provide a safety net for 330 million people
00:36:31.880
that costs billions or trillions, rather trillions of dollars to maintain, the safety net should be in
00:36:37.360
your own family. So that, that is how that's supposed to work. And, you know, I don't have adult
00:36:42.420
kids yet, but when I'm, you know, when my kids are adults, uh, if they fall on financial hard times,
00:36:48.840
it's hard for me to see me not giving them some help, not, not, not helping them out just as I
00:36:54.720
would do and have done for other members of, uh, of the family, you know, who are adults. Um,
00:37:00.500
the problem though is when the adult children, and now we start putting emphasis on children,
00:37:09.960
begin to depend on that, become dependent and feel entitled to it.
00:37:16.220
And then this kind of, uh, intersects with what we talked about last week, where we've got among
00:37:21.060
millennials and Gen Z, uh, there's a, you know, a large number of them that if they're feeling
00:37:26.260
unhappy in a job, they're just not having fun. They're not feeling, feeling fulfilled. Well,
00:37:30.900
they'll just, they'll quit the job because they're not having fun. And that raised the question last
00:37:36.000
week that we talked about, which is, well, how could you possibly afford,
00:37:38.440
how could you afford to just quit your job? Cause you're not having fun doing it?
00:37:43.180
Well, this is part of the story is that then they go to their parents who, um, oftentimes,
00:37:49.480
unfortunately are more than willing to, to fund that kind of lifestyle.
00:37:55.300
So this is, if, if people could just exercise a little bit of responsibility and common sense,
00:38:00.240
then that would solve a lot of these problems. Like in, in principle, there's obviously nothing wrong
00:38:07.840
with a parent helping out their kid when they're in, when they, when they've hit hard times,
00:38:11.920
obviously. Um, it's just that there's no moderation or common sense anymore.
00:38:17.940
And so that turns into, okay, I'm going to fund my adult child's lazy lifestyle for the next 10 years
00:38:26.240
while they just sit around and don't even attempt to go and get a job or anything else.
00:38:31.720
Uh, that's when it crosses the line. This is from the Daily Wire. This is a story from a couple of
00:38:34.880
days ago that I wanted to, I just wanted to touch on. Representative Madison Cawthorne responded Friday
00:38:39.100
to a report that showed him wearing lingerie by explaining the alleged context surrounding the
00:38:44.040
photos. So these were photos that went viral on Twitter last week as Madison Cawthorne, of course,
00:38:49.120
he's a Republican representative and, and, uh, he's one of the left, one, one that the, the left
00:38:52.880
among, in the group that the left hates the most, um, especially when it comes to the younger Republican
00:39:00.100
representatives in Congress. And these photos went viral of Madison Cawthorne, who's appears to be a few
00:39:08.580
years ago wearing lingerie and he's got, he's got other girls with him and they're taking a selfie
00:39:14.560
and there's no other context. This is the context though, according to Cawthorne. Politico reported
00:39:20.240
the revelation of the two photos is the latest in a series of unflattering headlines for the freshman
00:39:24.360
member of Congress and the run-up to the primary in his first reelection bid. Cawthorne has seven
00:39:28.540
Republican opponents who see him as vulnerable. The photos were provided to Politico by a person
00:39:32.660
formerly close to Cawthorne in his campaign and were confirmed by a second source who also
00:39:37.240
was a formerly close to the first term congressman. Cawthorne responded to the report by claiming
00:39:41.980
that the photos were taken during a vacation cruise. He said, quote, I guess the left thinks
00:39:47.380
goofy vacation photos during a game on a cruise taken way before I ran for Congress is going to
00:39:52.280
hurt me somehow. They're running out of things to throw at me. And so that's his defense is that
00:39:57.600
they were just probably drinking and they were goofing off and that's, it was supposed to be a joke.
00:40:01.140
What you can see here is number one, once again, the left completely abandoning, at least temporarily,
00:40:10.200
its views on the gender binary and everything else. Like according to them, there's actually
00:40:16.240
nothing strange at all about a man wearing lingerie. And certainly to shame somebody for that,
00:40:23.340
to shame them, that's unspeakable. That's what they say until they have this as ammunition that they
00:40:30.300
can shoot at Madison Cawthorne. And then, and then all of a sudden it's okay. And the other point too,
00:40:35.420
is that if there could be a correct context for men to wear women's clothing, which there isn't,
00:40:44.840
but if there was like, it's this, it's a joke. It's supposed to be a joke. It's silly. It's ridiculous.
00:40:51.600
I wouldn't recommend it even as a joke, but that's actually, it's, it's, you find pictures of a man
00:41:00.080
wearing, wearing women's clothing and it's a joke. It's like, this is what they used to do in Hollywood.
00:41:04.360
It used to be a punchline when a man wears women's clothing. Mrs. Doubtfire, which somehow that movie
00:41:11.640
has yet to be canceled by the left. Eventually they'll get around to it because Mrs. Doubtfire,
00:41:16.000
it's a comedy and all of the humor is found in the fact that Robin Williams is dressing up like a
00:41:20.600
woman and ha ha, isn't that so silly and ridiculous. So that's one thing like, yes,
00:41:26.400
it's silly and ridiculous. And we can laugh about that. The problem on the left is that they want
00:41:31.520
to take that. And now we're supposed to take it seriously as a lifestyle choice
00:41:36.080
until Republican congressmen are involved. And then of course the rules change completely.
00:41:47.680
Um, four door four 55, this kind of works with what we were just talking about says I
00:42:00.720
worked with a cross-dressing man. And all I can say is that if a woman employee dressed the way he did,
00:42:05.980
she would have been accused of violating the dress code. But if you're trans, then I guess you become
00:42:11.320
immune from a trip to the HR office. You have another way that the rules kind of are adjusted depending
00:42:17.300
on your identity and your demographic. Mr. Mediocre Gamer says Desmond absolutely sounds like a child.
00:42:23.720
I don't mean just in his voice. I mean in maturity as well. The poor kid is not in control of who he's
00:42:28.620
presented as. This child is going to need a lot of therapy later in life and mom and dad won't be
00:42:33.760
around to pay for it. Um, well, I, here's the thing I can guarantee you that this kid has, has gotten a lot
00:42:39.940
of therapy already. And that's part of the problem. He's gotten a lot of therapy, a lot of counseling,
00:42:44.900
but he's going to the gender affirming therapies, therapists and counselors, and they are just
00:42:50.900
encouraging more of this. So just like we talked about how it's, you can't trust the medical
00:42:57.120
profession anymore. That includes especially in fact, uh, therapists and counselors. I mean,
00:43:03.960
you can't, you can't trust them with your kids at all, which is quite a problem because there are
00:43:11.380
kids who could actually use, um, that kind of help. But these days you just, you know, you send
00:43:18.820
your kid to a counselor and, um, a week later they're telling you that, uh, they were born in
00:43:23.400
the wrong body because this is the kind of thing they're going to hear. But yeah, that is one thing
00:43:28.100
that jumps out at you when you hear Desmond is that he sounds, well, he sounds not just like a child,
00:43:33.040
but also in a lot of these videos, he sounds drugged as well. He sounds like a drugged child
00:43:38.000
because that's what he is. Um, Mitso says, as far as the stooping to their level comment,
00:43:44.860
I agree with Matt 100%. The organized battle lines of classic warfare cannot hold up against the more
00:43:49.680
modern guerrilla tactics. So using them strictly on principle will only lead to very principled defeat.
00:43:55.100
It's important to still have moral lines that you don't cross, but you can change tactics and
00:43:59.880
still maintain those boundaries. Uh, I think that's exactly right. That's this conservative
00:44:07.560
attitude, establishment, whatever you want to call the old, right, whatever label you want to put on
00:44:12.420
it. Um, I think if you were to summarize their position, you can do a better job than that.
00:44:18.560
Principled defeat. That's what they stand for is that we're going to lose and we're going to keep
00:44:24.300
losing, but we're going to, we're going to do it in a principled way. And as we've talked about,
00:44:29.640
that's for them, it's, it's a, it's a lot easier, actually. It's a lot easier. It is in fact, easier
00:44:35.180
to lose because when you're winning and you're taking and you're, you're, you're, you're doing
00:44:41.920
big things and you're taking risks and you're doing bold things. Well, now there's a lot of pressure.
00:44:46.240
I mean, look at Elon Musk taking over Twitter, even as the richest man in the world. Uh, he's
00:44:52.920
not just putting a lot of money on the line. He's putting, he's putting a lot more than that on the
00:44:55.720
line. And it's not just like, okay, he's going to take over Twitter and then right off into the
00:45:01.800
sunset and, uh, happily ever after. Now you actually have control of Twitter and you have to figure out
00:45:09.880
all the problems and fix them. It would have been a lot easier to just do nothing and let Twitter
00:45:20.880
remain in the hands of the people that already controlled it. And that's kind of the attitude
00:45:26.700
of, of the establishment, right? The old right is, uh, let's just do nothing at all. Let, let things
00:45:31.340
continue. We kind of, we have our lane here and it's easy and it's comfortable and we'll just stick
00:45:35.820
with that. That's their attitude. You know, people ask me all the time, how do I get a job at the
00:45:40.520
daily wire? And I always tell them, well, don't, don't start by talking to me. That's the first
00:45:45.440
step. You're already, you're already on the wrong foot. Um, but here's, I can for once actually tell
00:45:49.940
you about a new job at the daily wire for all you graphic design folks out there who have been
00:45:54.240
waiting for your chance to work on staff at the daily wire. Here it is. We're currently looking for a
00:45:58.100
superb and creative junior graphic designer to join our post-production team in Nashville,
00:46:02.360
Tennessee. In this position, you'll be responsible for creating visual concepts to
00:46:05.700
communicate ideas that inspire, inform, and captivate our audience and consumers. Ideal candidates for
00:46:10.540
this opportunity have one plus years of previous professional design experience in Photoshop or
00:46:15.440
Illustrator, excellent creative instincts, and a strong team player attitude. To apply for this
00:46:20.460
junior graphic design opportunity and to view a full list of current openings at daily wire,
00:46:24.740
please visit dailywire.com slash careers. That's where you want to go. And you know, I've already told
00:46:30.320
you about this, but I'll tell you again, if you've been living under a rock, you might be unaware that
00:46:34.060
I've written a children's book. If you weren't listening to the first part of the show also,
00:46:37.480
you wouldn't be aware of that. And it's changing the world as we know it. It sold out in less than
00:46:41.200
24 hours and at one point was crowned the number one best-selling LGBTQ plus book on Amazon. The book
00:46:46.580
is called Johnny the Walrus and it has already served as an inspiration for LGBTQ plus people.
00:46:52.360
And that will be the case for centuries to come, I believe. As mentioned, the book sold out right away
00:46:56.620
due to its immense popularity, but I have great news. The book is back. It's in stock right now.
00:47:00.460
And that's why, again, you can get the book and they'll actually mail it to you. You'll get it like
00:47:06.000
the next day or a day later. You don't have to wait six months this time. So if you want to get the
00:47:09.820
book, go to johnnythewalrus.com and order your copy right now. Now let's get to our daily cancellation.
00:47:19.260
As we know and have discussed at great length, lots of children's entertainment these days is packaged
00:47:24.340
up with veiled and often not so veiled leftist indoctrination. But every once in a while,
00:47:29.820
a new piece of children's content is released that appears to have no sinister underlying agenda.
00:47:34.640
It's just innocent, benign fun. Now I haven't seen it, but as far as I know and have been told,
00:47:40.440
the newly released animated film, The Bad Guys, falls into that category. I haven't heard of any
00:47:45.740
wokeness infiltrating it. Don't quote me on that though. Like I said, I haven't seen it, but that's
00:47:49.560
as far as I know. Assuming that it's just a good bit of apolitical family fun. It's all the more
00:47:55.940
unfortunate that our culture has decided to make it weird. Because even non-weird things in our
00:48:01.440
society are made weird. The leftist virus infects everything. And that brings us to an article in
00:48:06.640
Rolling Stone with a headline that I can't read out loud, but which refers to the reproductive organ
00:48:12.160
of one of the cartoon characters in the film. And the article begins with this.
00:48:15.700
With his broad shoulders, revolving wardrobe of crisp, well-fitted suits and rakish come-hither
00:48:22.300
expressions, Mr. Wolf, the slick protagonist of the upcoming DreamWorks release, The Bad Guys,
00:48:28.400
looks like a classic American male sex symbol in the grand tradition of Cary Grant, Harrison Ford,
00:48:34.120
and Brad Pitt. Now I need to pause here and say that though I'm not an expert on American male sex
00:48:40.800
symbols, despite arguably being one myself. Don't laugh, please. I'd always thought that a prerequisite
00:48:47.340
for becoming a male sex symbol is that you have to, first of all, be human, and second of all, exist.
00:48:54.620
Rolling Stone is here to correct the record though. They continue, the character is prompting
00:48:59.480
hordes of thirsty comments on the internet. Quote, Mr. Wolf isn't attracted to you or anyone else.
00:49:05.500
He's in love with me, reads one representative tweet. Another is more to the point. When do I
00:49:11.560
get to see Mr. Wolf from Bad Guy's penis in the movie? For those interested, there's plenty of fan
00:49:16.860
art on Twitter where you can see just that. Now the article provides many examples of comments like
00:49:22.300
this, but perhaps you've already heard more than enough to get the point. We're then offered this
00:49:26.520
explanation. Quote, because Mr. Wolf is an actual wolf, albeit one voiced by reportedly human actor Sam
00:49:32.780
Rockwell. Most of the people posting about Mr. Wolf are furries, a term used to describe those
00:49:37.320
who enjoy dressing up as or drawing anthropomorphized animals. Despite most popular
00:49:42.580
conceptions about furries, not all people in the fandom harbor sexual attractions to anthropomorphized
00:49:48.220
creatures, but many of those currently thirsting after Mr. Wolf certainly do. Now anytime you hear
00:49:54.120
about these furry creeps, you'll always be given the disclaimer that it's not always sexual.
00:49:58.960
But of course, it is. I mean, the whole thing is a bizarre, disgusting sexual fetish.
00:50:05.320
As is admitted in the same article. Later on, a furry LGBT author, as he's described, offers
00:50:12.460
this insight. Most people in furry subcultures remember the shirtless dancing buff tigers used
00:50:18.620
in Zootopia's marketing that most took to more or less mean, hey furries, we know your community
00:50:24.020
has an eye for masculine forms, so to speak, and we undeniably do. Furry is a nexus for queer art and
00:50:30.560
queer people, and it's one of the few places in particular where gay men and masculine queers get
00:50:35.460
to have some decent representation in our media. And queer men and masculine people are kind of starving
00:50:40.560
for that. Now this missive goes on for a while longer, and then ends on this note.
00:50:47.260
Still, in the absence of official furry recognition for mainstream entertainment,
00:50:51.040
members of the fandom will likely continue to simp after Mr. Wolf without recognition,
00:51:00.840
Now, you might hear all of that and think, well, these are just a bunch of
00:51:04.760
demented fringe deviants, and you're right. At least you're right about the first and last
00:51:09.940
adjectives there. But fringe is debatable, as this is Rolling Stone we're talking about. It's not like
00:51:15.220
I pulled this from some old Tumblr post. As much as Rolling Stone might have the quality and content
00:51:20.680
that resemble an old Tumblr post. In fact, there's a concerted effort, as the article suggests,
00:51:26.260
to give furries more mainstream acceptance and representation. And it seems to be working.
00:51:32.220
Just yesterday, libs of TikTok published images of a class assignment given to second graders in
00:51:36.460
Austin, where they were told to make their own furry persona. This was all part of culture month at the
00:51:43.260
school, a month where the kids learn about different cultures, you know, like Japanese culture,
00:51:47.740
Egyptian culture, and bestiality culture. Because that's what this is, after all. People who sexually
00:51:55.100
fantasize about animals, even fictional animals, are into bestiality. That's what that is.
00:52:00.980
We've sped right past yet another stop on the slippery slope that the left told us would never come.
00:52:06.460
They claimed, in fact, that we were bigots for even suggesting that it would get to this point.
00:52:09.940
Because for years, we said that our anything goes attitude towards sexuality would lead to the
00:52:16.800
normalization of bestiality, you know, bestiality. And here's Rolling Stone right on cue with a glowing
00:52:23.000
profile of people who fantasize about a cartoon wolf's penis. Now, many things have led us to this
00:52:29.860
point. But certainly one of the one of the principal factors is the misdirection of shame.
00:52:36.500
Now, I don't say that we've gotten rid of shame in our culture. Certainly not.
00:52:41.180
It's not like the left is running around claiming that nobody should ever feel ashamed or that
00:52:46.020
we shouldn't shame anybody. They love to shame people. It's their favorite pastime.
00:52:51.720
Shame has not been eradicated, but as I say, it's been misdirected. Because now we shame normalcy.
00:52:58.180
We shame common sense. We shame healthy behavior, healthy relationships, healthy attitudes.
00:53:04.380
We shame people for committing the sin of not being degenerate freaks. The actual shame-worthy
00:53:12.300
behavior is shielded from shame. And that's the problem. Because in a healthy society, people who
00:53:20.440
feel attracted to animals would be ashamed of that proclivity. They would never speak of it to
00:53:26.220
anybody except perhaps a trusted counselor or spiritual advisor. They would do whatever they
00:53:30.520
could to rid themselves of their inner demons. They would feel hideously embarrassed, as they should.
00:53:38.440
And that's the way it ought to be. Now, though, they put on costumes and they go to conventions and
00:53:42.140
they announce themselves on social media. And then they go out and actually proselytize,
00:53:46.800
encouraging others, especially children, to join them in their freakish lifestyle.
00:53:50.420
Now, this is supposed to be progress, but it's certainly not. That's why we need to bring back
00:53:56.400
shame. Bring it back where it belongs. And then we bring back shame into our culture.
00:54:01.940
If we get to that point, then we'd be in a position where we can all say to furries,
00:54:07.220
rather than just me saying it, that you're all canceled. And we'll leave it there for today.
00:54:12.140
Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Have a great day. Godspeed.
