00:00:37.660 Hey everybody, Michael here.

00:00:38.820 You know that the libs have some pretty crazy political slogans.

00:00:41.760 I guess conservatives have them too, but I think the libs' political slogans are even crazier.

00:00:47.140 Well, I have for you the definitive political slogan ranking on the left.

00:00:54.000 This is very scientific, very meticulous.

00:00:57.380 Take a listen.

00:00:58.380 The most effective way that the left amasses and wields political power is by the control of language.

00:01:04.880 This happens to be my upcoming book, Speechless, Controlling Words, Controlling Minds, available now for pre-order.

00:01:10.300 They wield language as a weapon to control the culture, to control our minds, and control our politics.

00:01:17.600 And this leaves us with really, really awful slogans.

00:01:21.580 You know the sort of woke slogans that I'm talking about.

00:01:23.640 Well, I'm here to give you the definitive tier ranking of the woke slogans.

00:01:30.400 Now here, you know, you hear all these different tiers, the A and the B and the C, and then there's the S tier level.

00:01:35.480 So we've got our own categories here.

00:01:37.640 At the bottom level, we have the sort of people who refer to Caitlyn Jenner as a she.

00:01:42.840 Right?

00:01:43.060 This is the go-along, to-get-along level of the woke slogans.

00:01:46.360 Then the next level up, we have the you post crying videos on social media.

00:01:51.380 Why can't women have abortions? 1.00

00:01:53.920 Okay, you are emotionally invested in this point.

00:01:56.320 You're really kind of into it.

00:01:58.340 Then the second highest level, that is the you exclusively shop at black and brown owned businesses level.

00:02:04.740 You know, I mean, you are really in it.

00:02:06.380 You are bought into this ideology.

00:02:08.420 You're really willing to put your money where your mouth is.

00:02:10.920 And then finally, there's the top tier.

00:02:13.240 That is the you-took-your-kid-to-drag-queen-story-hour level, right? 0.69

00:02:17.140 That is the absolute worst of the wokest of the wokest of the worst.

00:02:21.480 Let's start up the slogans.

00:02:23.380 My body, my choice.

00:02:26.220 My body, my choice is probably the lowest level.

00:02:30.920 I mean, it's talking about this egregious thing, which is killing babies to the tune of a million babies a year in this country. 1.00

00:02:36.020 Please, kill my baby! 0.99

00:02:38.020 But this is the basic level, because you'll hear this from people who aren't even all that woke. 1.00

00:02:42.520 They'll say variations on this, like, you know, men shouldn't have an opinion on abortion.

00:02:46.720 Ha, that's a woman's issue. 1.00

00:02:49.920 Especially men like me, who just have no confidence or thoughts of my own, so we don't do that.

00:02:54.220 And from women, you hear, my body, my choice.

00:02:56.300 But everybody says it.

00:02:57.320 So that's that bottom level.

00:02:59.760 You're the sort of person who just refers to Caitlyn Jenner as a she.

00:03:03.120 Another inversion.

00:03:04.220 Okay, next one.

00:03:04.840 Pay your fair share.

00:03:06.940 Your fair share.

00:03:08.280 That would be, gosh, that would be another.

00:03:12.240 Yeah, I'm afraid that's just referred to Caitlyn Jenner as a she.

00:03:14.920 I know plenty of moderate Republicans, people who, you know, they'll vote for McCain one day and Obama the next day, or Obama one day and Romney the next day.

00:03:24.120 They're kind of these moderate types who go into this.

00:03:26.740 They'll say, you know, the corporations need to pay their fair share, or the rich people need to pay their fair share.

00:03:31.220 And they haven't really thought about it too much.

00:03:33.120 They're certainly not going to post videos of themselves crying on social media.

00:03:36.380 But they are espousing this sort of frivolous line.

00:03:41.500 I mean, what is your fair share?

00:03:43.580 I mean, right now the rich people in this country pay something like 97% of income taxes.

00:03:47.720 So what's the, is your fair share 98%, 99%?

00:03:50.400 No, it's just envy.

00:03:51.260 There's no limit to it.

00:03:52.500 It's just gimme, gimme, gimme.

00:03:53.720 Gimme, gimme, gimme.

00:03:55.060 It's not even really about acquiring anything, right?

00:03:57.140 The people who call for this are not really getting a ton.

00:04:00.160 Really, that money is just going to government programs so we can ship it overseas and have Drag Queen Story Hour in Syria or something.

00:04:07.040 I don't know.

00:04:07.300 I don't know exactly what we're doing with the money.

00:04:09.500 That one, lowest tier.

00:04:11.400 Next up.

00:04:12.500 Silence is violence.

00:04:13.960 Okay, now we're moving up a little bit.

00:04:15.660 So silence is violence is a confusing one because we're told that, for instance, if you are a white person and you state your opinion in some way on a racial issue, that that is violence.

00:04:33.380 We're told that if you're a man and you state your opinion on a sexual issue, that is violence.

00:04:38.940 We're told that if you're a conservative at all and you espouse any kind of conservative view on a college campus, that is violence, right?

00:04:47.100 We're told that speech is violence.

00:04:50.080 Also, silence is violence.

00:04:52.660 So pretty much anything you do or do not do is violence.

00:04:57.980 Yay, violence! 1.00

00:04:59.620 This you're getting a little more, you know, you have definitely cried on social media.

00:05:05.840 You have the videos up.

00:05:07.700 Maybe it's not all the time, but they're there.

00:05:11.420 That would be the next up tier.

00:05:14.300 Okay, what's next?

00:05:15.840 Diversity is our strength.

00:05:17.300 This is, oh, this line.

00:05:19.540 Oh, my gosh, this line.

00:05:21.460 Doesn't make any sense.

00:05:22.620 I mean, just as a matter of sort of basic philosophy, unity is a strength, right?

00:05:29.360 If we're talking about like the transcendentals of being, like unity.

00:05:32.960 Unity is good, right?

00:05:34.060 Things have strength.

00:05:34.900 You know, you're a chain is only as strong as the weakest link, right?

00:05:38.800 You want things to be unified.

00:05:40.120 You want them to have integrity.

00:05:41.180 E pluribus unum, out of many, one.

00:05:45.480 So many different types in America, but they all come together.

00:05:49.000 Join or die.

00:05:50.200 This was the French and Indian War cartoon drawn by Benjamin Franklin, right?

00:05:54.560 Coming together in unity.

00:05:56.060 And then the libs come in and they say, no, actually diversity is our strength.

00:05:59.080 Diversity is not, it's not our strength.

00:06:01.560 It's not a strength at all.

00:06:02.720 And this doesn't mean that we can't have lots of different people in the United States

00:06:06.900 and all sorts of different types.

00:06:08.280 But they actually have to lose some of their identity in order.

00:06:12.120 And they need to take on an American identity.

00:06:14.360 And they need to ditch some of the things that make them separate and take on things that

00:06:19.740 will bring them into the American whole.

00:06:21.000 You're not allowed to say that now.

00:06:22.240 But this one is without question the bottom tier.

00:06:25.380 This is the sort of person who calls Caitlyn Jenner a sheep.

00:06:28.160 Fight for 15.

00:06:29.780 So this one, you got to be a little more in the weeds.

00:06:31.700 This is not the kind of diversity is our strength.

00:06:34.860 Beep, boop. 0.99

00:06:35.680 Pay your fair share.

00:06:36.780 Beep, beep, boop. 1.00

00:06:37.740 You know, it's not, it's not the sort of thing that has just been so drilled into us

00:06:40.960 all the time that we do.

00:06:42.040 You have to be paying attention to left-wing news outlets to even know what fight for 15

00:06:45.880 is.

00:06:46.140 It's this idea that we need a $15 minimum wage or something.

00:06:50.760 This, you're at least posting crying videos on social media.

00:06:55.100 You may well only shop at black and brown.

00:06:57.520 I'm actually going to bump this one up.

00:06:58.660 This is going to be you only shop at black and brown owned businesses. 0.99

00:07:01.280 Because you're, you're pretty in the weeds, especially on labor issues.

00:07:05.380 And you're, you know, you know the slogans that probably are not going to become super

00:07:09.040 popular for another, you know, five or six years.

00:07:11.660 So that, that's good.

00:07:12.340 That one's actually pretty high up there.

00:07:13.800 Next. 1.00

00:07:14.640 Follow the science, you dumb sheep. 1.00

00:07:16.960 Give me your mask. 1.00

00:07:17.880 So I give them to my friends. 1.00

00:07:19.140 No, now you got to wear your masks, you dumb sheep. 1.00

00:07:21.780 Hey, you're attacking science. 1.00

00:07:24.520 Follow the science.

00:07:25.800 Yeah, that's the bottom tier.

00:07:29.140 Call Bruce Jenner a sheep.

00:07:31.020 It's really distressing how many of these slogans are at that bottom tier.

00:07:37.220 Because it's not that the slogans aren't radical.

00:07:39.120 The idea that we follow the science, like we make a god out of the science, whatever the

00:07:42.940 science is, that we, we do not understand that all human conflict is ultimately religious.

00:07:48.120 We do not recognize that there is such a thing as philosophy, such a thing as ethics, such

00:07:52.440 a thing as morality.

00:07:53.700 We just, it's all just the science, duh, you know, and it's like, it's that meme where

00:07:58.060 it's like the letters are lowercase and capitalized alternately. 0.98

00:08:00.900 It's so, it's one of the dumbest expressions out there. 0.96

00:08:04.280 And yet, it's a radical expression too, because it's so wickedly materialist. 0.98

00:08:10.420 But it's very popular.

00:08:11.720 It's the bottom one.

00:08:12.280 You call Bruce Jenner a she.

00:08:13.940 Next up.

00:08:14.780 Black Lives Matter.

00:08:15.580 Yeah, another, well, no, this is, this is the bottom tier.

00:08:22.400 This is still the bottom tier, I think.

00:08:25.560 No, no, I'm going to, I'm going to alter that.

00:08:27.600 This was the bottom tier.

00:08:29.320 Everyone was saying this. 0.99

00:08:30.220 Everyone was posting the stupid black square on BLM day or whatever, you know, that everyone 1.00

00:08:33.800 was doing it. 1.00

00:08:34.800 But I think that has changed.

00:08:37.080 There was a time when even Republican politicians would say, I believe Black Lives Matter.

00:08:40.360 And you're just like, oh, bro, you don't, they're, it's a Marxist organization.

00:08:43.180 They're avowedly a Marxist organization that seeks to disrupt the Western prescribed nuclear

00:08:47.560 family.

00:08:48.020 Their words, not mine.

00:08:49.300 They talk about the cisgender patriarchy, right? 0.95

00:08:51.720 It's a ridiculously radical organization. 0.83

00:08:54.340 But all the, all the conservatives who didn't want to be called racist would, would go along

00:08:58.200 and say, no, I believe Black Lives Matter, seriously.

00:09:00.400 That, I think, has stopped, though.

00:09:02.000 I think recently you don't really see that.

00:09:04.280 I think BLM has been exposed.

00:09:06.220 For one, it's been redefined as buy large mansions ever since the head of BLM was caught

00:09:10.540 spending millions of dollars on giant mansions.

00:09:13.560 I think people now know that it's a, it's a racket.

00:09:16.060 People know it's an extortion group.

00:09:18.020 And also after BLM burned the country down for about six months, I think that soured people 1.00

00:09:22.100 on it.

00:09:22.540 So this one, you're gonna have to be a little higher.

00:09:24.320 This is you post crying videos on social media.

00:09:27.600 Next up.

00:09:28.420 That's not who we are.

00:09:30.000 Okay.

00:09:30.220 This one's a little higher.

00:09:32.240 This is like, for instance, when we would use enhanced interrogation techniques on terrorists.

00:09:38.440 This is not quite what you'd call torture, but it's, you know, a little tough.

00:09:43.100 It's a little rougher.

00:09:44.200 And some squishes made a big deal about this. 0.98

00:09:47.040 And they said, you can, we can't, we can't torture the jihadis.

00:09:50.360 That would be wrong.

00:09:51.540 That's not who we are.

00:09:53.180 It's, well, we're not, we're not jihadis.

00:09:57.660 So yeah, they're not who, oh, the torturers.

00:09:59.940 Okay.

00:10:00.480 So they're saying basically the jihadis would do that or some other regimes would do that,

00:10:04.160 but we don't do that.

00:10:05.280 Why?

00:10:05.500 Because we're not serious about winning wars?

00:10:07.120 Is that the point?

00:10:08.320 That's not who we are.

00:10:09.200 The Geneva Convention says you can.

00:10:11.400 I don't care if this thing's against the Geneva Conventions.

00:10:13.880 I want it.

00:10:14.740 The Geneva Convention is designed to protect civilians in war.

00:10:18.640 And it provides certain accommodations to legal combatants in war.

00:10:23.320 If you're a terrorist, by definition, you are not adhering to the Geneva Convention.

00:10:27.640 You're targeting civilians, for instance.

00:10:29.560 So you're not entitled to those protections.

00:10:31.520 And if you were given those protections, you completely undermine the Geneva Convention.

00:10:34.780 So I got off on a tangent. 0.85

00:10:36.620 That phrase, that's not who we are, is a very silly one.

00:10:40.900 And it usually just means that's not who I want us to be.

00:10:46.280 However, okay, this one is going to be a little higher.

00:10:49.420 This is not just the total basic level.

00:10:51.120 This is, you do post crying videos on social media. 1.00

00:10:54.380 You're probably crying when you use that stupid slogan. 1.00

00:10:58.300 Next. 1.00

00:10:59.120 Defund the police.

00:11:00.060 Yeah, okay, now we're bumping up a little higher here.

00:11:02.400 I mean, this is, you do not shop at a white-owned restaurant or shop. 0.99

00:11:08.160 Like, no way.

00:11:09.080 I mean, this is, you are, if you're doing defund the police, you, I think that most of

00:11:14.940 your shopping is done at night with rocks through windows.

00:11:17.880 You know, wearing masks and not for COVID, okay?

00:11:24.900 That's a little more radical.

00:11:26.300 That has not been totally mainstreamed.

00:11:27.920 I mean, you hear it with politicians, too.

00:11:30.260 But even the squad types had to back off of this a little bit.

00:11:33.820 And they are by far the most extreme on it.

00:11:36.140 That's going to be that second highest tier.

00:11:38.440 Next up.

00:11:39.320 Love is love.

00:11:40.360 Love is love.

00:11:42.200 Okay, love, which is a truism, I guess.

00:11:46.360 But it's not even, it doesn't convey anything, right?

00:11:49.720 There are different kinds of love.

00:11:51.080 I love my wife.

00:11:53.420 I love my son.

00:11:54.700 And I love my producer.

00:11:56.780 I love them in very different ways.

00:11:59.540 If I were to confuse the way that I love them at some point, I would very likely be committing

00:12:05.440 a crime.

00:12:06.640 There are different kinds of love.

00:12:08.240 But this insistence that we conflate all sorts of love and just make it all about sex or 1.00

00:12:12.600 something is creepy and gross and very stupid. 0.99

00:12:16.300 However, a lot of people say this. 1.00

00:12:19.240 A lot of people.

00:12:19.900 I would say this is not the basic, well, huh.

00:12:24.280 Is it?

00:12:24.960 No, I guess it is.

00:12:25.880 I guess this has been, it's been very mainstreamed.

00:12:28.240 Even now, I mean, this was a line used to justify the radical redefinition of marriage

00:12:34.020 from what it had always meant everywhere in human history to this new radical redefinition

00:12:38.780 that takes sexual difference out of it.

00:12:41.900 But even many Republicans go along with that now.

00:12:45.040 Obviously, Anthony Kennedy, the romantic poet of the Supreme Court, waxed poetic about this.

00:12:50.240 So I think this is the lowest tier.

00:12:51.560 You're the sort of person who calls Bruce she.

00:12:54.760 No justice, no peace.

00:12:58.560 This is a little higher than the Caitlyn Jenner thing.

00:13:02.140 This is definitely, well, this is higher than the crying videos even.

00:13:07.000 Because you're not crying.

00:13:08.340 You're not coming from a position of weakness.

00:13:10.280 No justice, no peace.

00:13:11.440 Usually when you say that, you've got a Molotov cocktail in your hand or something like it.

00:13:15.880 During the mostly peaceful protests of 2020, when BLM was terrorizing city after city after

00:13:22.740 city, you heard a lot of no justice, no peace.

00:13:25.740 I mean, that is an explicit call for violence.

00:13:27.780 The whole world must learn of our peaceful ways by force.

00:13:32.100 Usually of the terroristic variety, right?

00:13:34.600 Usually targeting civilians.

00:13:36.680 So that's going to be, you don't shop at Whitey's shop, okay? 1.00

00:13:40.780 You are discriminating against people, definitely on their race, in your economic life.

00:13:46.960 That's going to be the second highest here.

00:13:49.900 I can't breathe.

00:13:51.320 So I can't breathe is this, it's one of the slogans of BLM.

00:13:56.040 BLM has a lot of fraudulent slogans. 1.00

00:13:59.620 So hands up, don't shoot was the big one with Michael Brown.

00:14:03.180 The narrative was that Michael Brown was a gentle giant who was gunned down by a vicious

00:14:07.680 cop and killed execution style.

00:14:09.620 Well, he was on his knees and his hands up and he said, hands up, don't shoot.

00:14:12.140 And none of that was true.

00:14:13.160 He had just robbed a store.

00:14:14.240 He was accosting this cop.

00:14:16.280 He reached for the cop's gun. 0.95

00:14:18.080 And finally, the cop had to shoot him.

00:14:20.900 And this was affirmed by multiple autopsies and grand jury and eyewitnesses.

00:14:25.760 And it's just, there's no basis to it.

00:14:27.760 So the slightly more credible one was from the death of George Floyd, where George Floyd

00:14:32.980 said, I can't breathe, I can't breathe.

00:14:34.780 And it was ostensibly because the officer, Derek Chauvin, was kneeling on his neck.

00:14:38.320 However, George Floyd was saying, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, video later revealed

00:14:42.220 before he was on the ground.

00:14:44.000 He actually asked to be taken out of the cop car, which is why he was put on the ground.

00:14:47.320 And so the narrative kind of fell apart.

00:14:49.340 However, however, while this might not be the most basic level, it might not just be

00:14:53.940 the Bruce Jenner calling him a she, this is only the next highest level.

00:14:59.340 This is only, you know, you've posted the occasional crying video on social media.

00:15:03.240 And the reason for that is the truth of these incidents, the true complexities of them,

00:15:07.960 just don't get out because the media powers that be refuse to permit this kind of stuff out.

00:15:13.160 So this is going to be the crying videos.

00:15:15.980 Love, not hate, the activist said as he set fire to the courthouse.

00:15:19.940 It's bringing love.

00:15:20.800 Don't let it get away. 0.99

00:15:21.820 Break its legs.

00:15:23.100 Love, not hate, the mostly peaceful protester said as he was walking out with a pair of Nike

00:15:27.440 sneakers from the shattered storefront.

00:15:30.420 Love, not hate.

00:15:31.240 Hate screamed the blue-haired Antifa activist at the elderly Trump supporter. 1.00

00:15:38.780 Yes, another talk about conveying the opposite of what it means.

00:15:41.080 But this is a basic one.

00:15:42.320 This is a totally, if you call Bruce she, you for sure have said love, not hate, earnestly,

00:15:48.240 not ironically.

00:15:49.700 Eat the rich.

00:15:50.380 Okay, this one's a little higher.

00:15:51.400 You actually don't hear this one as much anymore because this eat the rich goes back to a classical

00:15:55.900 Marxism that viewed the world in primarily economic terms and viewed social struggle as

00:16:02.240 a matter of class, whereas the cultural or neo or Western Marxists, they're called all

00:16:07.180 sorts of things, realized that the class thing wasn't as effective, but race and sex and that

00:16:13.320 those sorts of identities are actually more effective in creating a sense of solidarity.

00:16:18.440 So it's really like the Bernie types.

00:16:19.740 You've got to be pretty into this.

00:16:23.440 It resists all of this classification because all of these, the drag queen thing and the

00:16:29.880 black and brown businesses and the social media and Caitlyn Jenner, they're all cultural

00:16:33.580 matters and this is just an economic matter.

00:16:35.560 But if I had to just throw a dart at a dartboard and pick one, I would say it's high enough up.

00:16:39.360 It's probably at the shopping at black and brown businesses only in as much as you are making

00:16:44.520 economic decisions now.

00:16:45.720 You are making public decisions based on your radical ideology.

00:16:50.640 Michael Knowles is literally Hitler.

00:16:53.580 So this is not the most basic level.

00:16:57.020 This is because some, I guess some people just haven't heard of my show.

00:16:59.720 I don't know why not, probably because they haven't read my upcoming book.

00:17:02.080 But this is not the highest tier.

00:17:05.320 This is not the, you know, the elite of the elite, you know, like you're actually taking

00:17:08.620 your kids to drag queen story hour.

00:17:10.240 This is, I don't even think this is you exclusively shopped at black and brown owned businesses. 0.65

00:17:14.940 I am called literally Hitler, I think multiple times a day.

00:17:20.520 I mean, this is not, it's not that out there, folks.

00:17:23.640 And I want you to know, I am not literally Hitler.

00:17:28.600 Okay.

00:17:28.800 If any, I think I would be closer to Mussolini, wouldn't I?

00:17:31.440 Could have been a Duce, you know, the Italian. 0.97

00:17:34.960 I'm not, I can't even, I don't even speak German.

00:17:38.100 Nein! 0.99

00:17:38.580 Nein, nein, nein!

00:17:39.580 Free the nipple. 0.99

00:17:40.260 That is the worst picture you possibly, it's so gross. 0.98

00:17:43.020 My eyes! 0.95

00:17:44.020 Uh, free the nipple is, it's not the Caitlyn Jenner she thing.

00:17:48.840 It is some teenage boys who are, who know a good opportunity when they see one.

00:17:52.840 It might be, it's beyond even the posting of the crying videos.

00:17:57.640 It's more, it's more thought out than that.

00:17:59.640 It's, you're probably only shopping at black and brown businesses. 0.52

00:18:02.680 I mean, you're, you're really kind of down the rabbit hole at that point, freeing the nipple. 0.83

00:18:08.200 Why of all the, why of all the pictures?

00:18:10.600 What, what, what, what do I need to end on a bad note?

00:18:12.120 Do we have any more? 0.95

00:18:13.500 Oh, it's so gross. 0.98

00:18:14.480 I got to end with that image of my, I got to end with the free the nipple image? 0.98

00:18:17.600 Come on, guys, guys, don't do this to me.

00:18:20.800 That's it.

00:18:21.480 We have not made it to the S tier.

00:18:24.420 You are not, there is, we have not yet seen a slogan that is only of the most woke of the woke of the woke.

00:18:30.720 And do you know why?

00:18:31.580 It's not because those slogans aren't radical.

00:18:34.060 They're very radical slogans.

00:18:36.260 It's because the left has been so effective at popularizing insanely radical stuff that none of it,

00:18:42.960 I bet you could look at every woke slogan out there.

00:18:46.120 None of it is going to be only reserved for the elite of the elite of the, because they've popularized it.

00:18:52.120 They have controlled our words.

00:18:54.500 They are controlling our minds.

00:18:56.740 They've left us speechless.

00:18:57.880 A great book that you can pre-order makes a great Father's Day present.
