The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 495 - Toxic Effeminacy

00:00:00.520 AOC's boyfriend goes viral for castigating his fellow white people as hopelessly racist.

00:00:07.160 We will examine the dangers of toxic effeminacy.

00:00:10.920 Then squad member Ayanna Pressley whines on the floor of the house. 1.00

00:00:14.220 Elizabeth Warren takes money from a broke student. 0.99

00:00:17.000 And President Trump teaches us all a lesson when the media ask him what lessons he learned

00:00:21.620 from impeachment.

00:00:22.800 All that plus the mailbag.

00:00:23.860 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:00:24.500 This is the Michael Knowles Show.

00:00:30.000 Ooh, we got a lot to get to today.

00:00:35.400 Not going to give you a lot of hope for millennials, but maybe, maybe a lesson for our whole culture.

00:00:40.780 We'll get to all that in a second.

00:00:41.920 First, I got to thank our friends, a new sponsor to the show over at Fairway Meat Market.

00:00:48.560 You know me.

00:00:49.580 I pretty much eat a carnivorous diet.

00:00:52.600 My diet is pretty much meats and occasionally a little bit of cheese and some booze.

00:00:57.300 Fairway Meat Market is a family-owned grocery chain that has been in business since 1938,

00:01:03.980 where each and every cut is hand-cut by their highly experienced team of butchers.

00:01:10.160 You know, I was in D.C. for about three weeks.

00:01:12.200 I was shooting my other podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz.

00:01:14.660 I come back and Fairway had sent me this amazing selection of meat, of beef, premium beef,

00:01:22.560 all-natural pork, which is raised by family farmers and sourced straight out of corn country,

00:01:27.540 which gives you access to the highest quality meat in America.

00:01:31.360 They got ribs.

00:01:32.220 They got ribeyes. 0.85

00:01:32.980 They got pork chops.

00:01:33.780 They got beef tenderloin.

00:01:34.740 They got every style and cut that your kitchen can possibly handle.

00:01:39.400 And fairwaymeatmarket.com also has the best recipes.

00:01:41.720 It's got great cooking tips to make sure that you and your friends and your family have a meal that they won't forget.

00:01:47.140 Go get it.

00:01:47.680 These guys are so, so cool.

00:01:49.520 This week, my listeners can get the Heartland Package, valued at $230, for just $99.99.

00:01:56.140 Plus, you get free shipping when you enter Knoll's, K-N-O-W-L-E-S, at checkout.

00:01:59.980 Heartland Package includes eight 8-ounce all-natural boneless pork chops,

00:02:06.340 one mouth-watering side dish, loaded potato bake, gourmet cheesy corn, or brisket baked beans.

00:02:13.800 That's more than 50% off the best meat in America, plus free shipping.

00:02:17.000 That is fairwaymeatmarket.com, promo code Knolls, and look out for the Heartland Package.

00:02:22.600 All right, AOC.

00:02:24.860 AOC and her boyfriend.

00:02:26.200 I wasn't ever going to mention AOC's boyfriend,

00:02:30.480 because, you know, you want to think that boyfriends and girlfriends and wives and husbands are off limits.

00:02:36.420 That's a rule I generally abide by.

00:02:38.400 Except sometimes, politicians decide to thrust their significant others into the political spotlight.

00:02:45.700 And AOC has done this more than anyone.

00:02:47.720 She's just put her boyfriend on camera, on the internet, to parrot her political points of view.

00:02:55.560 Trouble is, the points of view that she's having him espouse are not only wrong,

00:03:02.760 they're absolutely humiliating for her boyfriend.

00:03:06.740 Here is AOC and her love interest.

00:03:09.600 Riley, what has been helpful to you in combating racism?

00:03:14.500 I think it's helpful and important to talk to other white people about racism.

00:03:19.760 And I think a lot of people, they don't want to be racist.

00:03:25.660 They don't think that they're racist.

00:03:27.300 But they also don't know some of the things that they believe or say are and can be racist.

00:03:33.920 And I think one of the, like, effective ways is just to talk and kind of help teach them about why some of the things they believe or say or think are wrong.

00:03:44.820 Not necessarily racist, but that they're wrong.

00:03:48.580 And that'll sort of, like, chip away and, you know, contribute to some development in this area.

00:03:57.080 But not necessarily take somebody from, like, being a racist to not being a racist in one conversation.

00:04:01.180 And it's just always being open to learning about racist things that we may have said or done without judgment and defensiveness.

00:04:10.040 Oh, gosh.

00:04:13.360 If you couldn't, if you're listening, if you haven't seen this video, you could probably hear it.

00:04:18.840 But AOC's boyfriend is, like, the whitest guy who has ever walked the face of the earth.

00:04:23.660 Very light skin and red hair.

00:04:27.300 And he's very white.

00:04:29.040 And the irony here is that his thesis, which is really her thesis, I suspect, because she's sitting there filming him, waiting for him to say it, kind of nodding along when she approves.

00:04:41.460 The irony is that his thesis is racist.

00:04:45.720 Right?

00:04:46.040 His thesis is that a group of people are flawed by their skin color.

00:04:53.780 And they're flawed pretty much irreparably.

00:04:56.020 His idea is that white people are, by definition, racist.

00:05:00.260 And it's all of them.

00:05:01.740 The ones who don't know that they're racist are probably the most racist of all and that you can't really fix it.

00:05:07.640 He says you're not going to make someone not a racist overnight or over a few days.

00:05:13.260 Meaning that no matter how much you talk to them, there will still always be this vestigial racism.

00:05:19.000 They're sort of depraved to their core.

00:05:21.660 And all you can do is try to help the problem along a little bit.

00:05:25.180 That's the irony of the clip.

00:05:27.640 The sadder part of the clip is that he's participating in this at all.

00:05:34.200 The sadder part of the clip is that he is allowing his girlfriend to humiliate him in front of millions of people.

00:05:41.040 That's humiliating, right?

00:05:43.000 To have your girlfriends holding a camera to her millions of followers and basically saying, 0.69

00:05:47.940 Okay, tell everyone how bad you are.

00:05:51.560 And tell everyone how bad everyone who looks like you is. 1.00

00:05:54.120 And tell everyone how they're never really going to get better.

00:05:56.780 And when you say something I agree with, I'll nod approvingly.

00:05:59.480 But you better say it.

00:06:01.260 It's like a forced confession under a dictatorship or something.

00:06:06.060 It's so humiliating.

00:06:06.960 It's not respectful.

00:06:07.700 This is toxic effeminacy.

00:06:12.300 Okay.

00:06:14.240 We hear a lot about toxic masculinity.

00:06:16.760 This is toxic effeminacy.

00:06:18.580 And it's funny.

00:06:19.600 I'm doing the PragerU book show.

00:06:21.200 So we're doing once a month we read one of these great books and talk about it with people.

00:06:24.720 The one that we're just about to film is the book of Genesis.

00:06:27.500 And the book of Genesis actually has a lot to say about toxic masculinity and about toxic effeminacy.

00:06:34.900 This video of AOC and her boyfriend is like a live action production of the third chapter of the book of Genesis.

00:06:42.420 In the book of Genesis, God tells Eve after Eve and Adam have sinned and God is doling out their punishment.

00:06:49.120 God tells Eve, as part of her punishment, her desire shall be for her husband.

00:06:56.680 And what that statement means is that she will have a kind of appetite for her husband.

00:07:03.000 She'll want to control her husband. 1.00

00:07:04.640 She'll want to devour him. 1.00

00:07:07.300 I mean, think of like a praying mantis, you know, the female praying mantis devouring the male in the act of love.

00:07:13.760 That's the punishment for Eve. 0.95

00:07:16.780 Then he tells Adam, as his punishment, that Adam will have to toil the earth.

00:07:22.060 This tells you about two flaws categorically in men and women.

00:07:26.080 That's the flaw for women in this chapter is that women will want to domineer. 1.00

00:07:31.620 They'll want to, they'll have desire for their man. 0.79

00:07:34.380 They'll want to devour their man. 1.00

00:07:35.840 And that the flaw of men is that they're lazy.

00:07:39.760 Okay, those are the two flaws.

00:07:41.500 Being domineering, being lazy.

00:07:44.660 Actually, in, in that very chapter, when, when God is doling out the punishment to Eve,

00:07:50.060 the punishment is you, your desire will be for your husband, but he shall rule over you. 0.90

00:07:54.580 And some people reading this for the first time might say, oh, it looks like he's giving Eve a punishment,

00:07:59.220 but Adam a reward because Adam gets to rule over Eve.

00:08:04.480 Not really.

00:08:05.780 That's a misreading of Adam's desires.

00:08:08.600 Adam's desire here and the desire that is, is therefore being described of all men is not to rule over people.

00:08:15.960 Actually, the, the real desire of men is to sit on the couch and eat potato chips and watch TV.

00:08:21.360 And it's actually a punishment that he will rule over her.

00:08:26.320 It's a punishment for both of them.

00:08:28.940 Toxic effeminacy, toxic masculinity.

00:08:31.180 Obviously, in this clip, you were seeing this, this guy's girlfriend just totally domineer him, humiliate him, mock him on video. 1.00

00:08:42.540 But the flaw, you're also seeing that same masculine flaw in, in his performance because he's just going along with it.

00:08:51.920 He's just lazy, shrinking into himself.

00:08:54.560 He's being cowed.

00:08:55.900 He's, he's allowing himself to be humiliated because he doesn't want to stand up for himself.

00:09:00.540 Compare that video to a video of our president.

00:09:03.740 President Trump was asked during a press conference yesterday, I believe it was, what lessons he had learned from impeachment.

00:09:11.520 This is a question being asked by the media, assuming a Democratic and anti-Trump Republican premise, which is that Trump needed to learn a lesson.

00:09:20.540 And so they don't even say, did you learn a lesson?

00:09:22.440 They jump right past accepting the premise into saying, what lesson did you learn from impeachment?

00:09:28.520 And Trump shoves it right back in their face.

00:09:30.340 Lisa Murkowski earlier said that you shouldn't have gotten involved with the Roger Stone.

00:09:33.740 In case she said, it's just bad.

00:09:34.980 Some Republicans have said they hoped you would learn a lesson from impeachment.

00:09:38.340 What lesson did you learn from impeachment?

00:09:40.540 That the Democrats are crooked.

00:09:43.220 They've got a lot of crooked things going.

00:09:45.260 That they're vicious.

00:09:46.980 That they shouldn't have brought impeachment.

00:09:49.340 And that my poll numbers are 10 points higher because of fake news like NBC, which reports the news very inaccurately, probably more inaccurately than CNN, if that's possible.

00:09:59.100 People, uh, MSDNC and your MS, uh, and, and if you take a look at NBC, no, I think they're among the most dishonest reporters of the news.

00:10:09.560 Absolutely the right answer.

00:10:11.320 Thank you, Mr. Trump for showing us how to shove this right back in their face.

00:10:17.120 He, the, the question that's being asked more or less is, Hey, Mr. Trump, when did you stop beating your wife?

00:10:21.380 Right?

00:10:21.620 It's, it's a question where any way you answer, you're accepting the premise and it makes you look bad.

00:10:27.420 The premise being you needed to learn a lesson from impeachment because you made a big mistake.

00:10:31.300 And he just says, no, I'm not taking your premise.

00:10:33.800 Here's the lesson I learned is you people are all corrupt.

00:10:36.260 You people are all absolute hacks and you're incompetent too, because you tried to take me out and instead my poll numbers are 10 points higher.

00:10:43.280 That is some virtuous masculinity.

00:10:46.660 That's manliness.

00:10:47.940 That's standing up for yourself, shoving it right back at them, not allowing yourself to be humiliated and cowed on national television.

00:10:55.440 An important lesson, and it, I guess one way to recognize that there can be a virtue to manliness too, just like there can be toxicity to effeminacy, is to realize that there are some toxic women out there too. 1.00

00:11:10.960 There's some toxic men, there's some toxic women. 1.00

00:11:13.820 There's racism from one race, there's racism from other races too.

00:11:18.640 We'll get to all of that in a second.

00:11:19.940 First, I've got to thank our friends over at Ring, Ring's mission.

00:12:19.960 Ring.com slash Knowles, K-N-O-W-L-E-S. 0.99

00:12:22.360 That's ring.com slash Knowles.

00:12:24.000 We hear a lot about toxic men.

00:12:29.600 We don't hear about the other side of it very much.

00:12:31.440 So I wanted to highlight a toxic woman who also went viral yesterday. 0.96

00:12:35.560 This is squad member.

00:12:37.140 She's like the minor member of the squad.

00:12:39.360 She's the Ringo Starr of the squad, Ayanna Pressley. 0.98

00:12:42.520 She took to the floor of the House of Representatives to wine.

00:12:46.720 The great poet and pioneer of righteous rage, Audra Lorde, once said, quote, I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when our shackles are very different from my own, end quote.

00:13:02.240 The year is now 2020, and here we women are still in so many ways not fully free, still shackled.

00:13:10.880 Today, I rise to affirm the humanity and the dignity of all women.

00:13:15.480 I rise in strong, unapologetic, righteous support of H.J.

00:13:20.440 Res. 79, which will strike the arbitrary deadline for ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment, an amendment that should already be the law of the land.

00:13:30.180 The American Constitution is sexist by its very design.

00:13:34.240 Okay, where do we even begin with all of this?

00:13:36.940 First of all, she begins, she says, quoting Audra Lorde, the pioneer of righteous rage.

00:13:48.060 By the way, when people refer to themselves as righteous, that's usually a good clue that they are being unrighteous.

00:13:53.900 But she's coming out and saying, I'm full of rage.

00:13:57.080 She's just describing this, this vice, this awful temptation.

00:14:02.980 And then she goes on and says, America's sexist from the very core, and women have no rights in America, and everything's terrible. 0.95

00:14:10.180 This while, she's standing on the floor of the House of Representatives.

00:14:13.460 This while, she's one of the most prominent members of the Democratic Party, only by virtue of her association with three other people, AOC, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib.

00:14:24.680 All women, by the way, who are much more prominent faces of the Democratic Party, some of the most prominent politicians in America.

00:14:32.480 But women have no rights, absolutely. 1.00

00:14:33.880 What rights do women lack in America? 1.00

00:14:36.180 None, absolutely none, of course.

00:14:39.340 But she's angry and furious anyway, and willing to denounce her whole country for it. 0.75

00:14:43.240 She then goes on to endorse the ERA.

00:14:45.520 This is the Equal Rights Amendment.

00:14:47.020 It's got a really nice sounding name, but it's a horrible, terrible idea.

00:14:50.700 This was a dumb law that was defeated decades and decades ago, mostly by women. 1.00

00:14:55.320 One woman in particular, a conservative pioneer named Phyllis Schlafly.

00:14:58.980 And then it's come back in recent years, and it's gaining some popularity on the left.

00:15:05.000 It's a terrible idea for a law.

00:15:07.300 It would force women into the draft. 1.00

00:15:09.760 It would force women to be drafted into the military. 1.00

00:15:11.880 It would absolutely abolish same-sex restrooms and same-sex schools and any kind of same-sex facility.

00:15:16.980 And it would enshrine into law the right to kill babies through abortion. 0.81

00:15:21.560 Everything about this law is terrible.

00:15:23.500 It was rightly defeated decades ago.

00:15:25.300 Now it's coming back up.

00:15:26.940 That's the specific point on the law.

00:15:28.400 On the larger point, what these radicals are saying is that any suggestion that men and

00:15:35.880 women are in any way different is sexist. 0.99

00:15:39.820 And you know, by a very narrow definition of sexism, I guess that's true. 0.98

00:15:44.620 What is sexism is to discriminate, to be discriminating, to see differences between men and women.

00:15:56.160 So I guess technically that is sexist.

00:16:00.380 It's not bigoted.

00:16:01.920 It's not harmful.

00:16:04.200 It's not injurious to recognize that men and women have biological differences.

00:16:08.400 Often they have differences of desire.

00:16:09.860 But I guess there are differences.

00:16:13.680 For these radicals, absolutely, that has to be abolished.

00:16:17.420 That is a real form of toxic effeminacy.

00:16:20.340 If a man had gone down to the floor and given that speech, he would be rightly mocked for it.

00:16:26.180 This brings us to another toxic woman, Elizabeth Warren. 1.00

00:16:29.140 Elizabeth Warren's campaign in recent days for president has just collapsed, absolutely. 0.99

00:16:33.620 She is doing anything she can to try to remain relevant.

00:16:36.100 She told a story on MSNBC last night about how she's on the campaign trail and a young girl comes

00:16:43.440 up to her and says, listen, I'm completely broke, but I've given you what little money I have so

00:16:48.280 that you can keep running for president.

00:16:50.300 Elizabeth Warren believes this is some sort of inspiring story.

00:16:53.420 There are so many people who are in this fight for all the right reasons.

00:16:57.760 You know me, did the speech and then afterwards did a selfie line and we were there for over an hour.

00:17:03.640 People are coming through and they're saying thank you or they're giving hugs and talking

00:17:08.980 about what's important to them.

00:17:10.600 Young woman came up by herself and she said, I'm a broke college student with a lot of student

00:17:18.280 loan debt.

00:17:19.900 And she said, I checked and I have six dollars in the bank.

00:17:24.200 So I just gave three dollars to keep you in this fight. 1.00

00:17:29.980 That's what we've got to do.

00:17:31.360 We've got to stay in this fight with people who are counting on us.

00:17:34.900 This isn't about fighting other Democrats.

00:17:37.620 This is about fighting for the America we believe in.

00:17:41.440 You took her money?

00:17:43.060 What kind of monster are you?

00:17:45.080 The poor girl has only got six dollars in the bank and you, a very, very wealthy woman, 1.00

00:17:49.840 Harvard professor, took half of her money, three dollars?

00:17:53.740 What a monster.

00:17:54.740 Now, I don't think any of her story is true.

00:17:56.240 Elizabeth Warren has a little bit of a difficult relationship with the truth, difficult relationship 0.99

00:18:02.580 with her DNA, lies about her DNA for decades to get professional advantage, lies about being 1.00

00:18:09.440 fired because she was pregnant, lies about sending her kids to public school. 0.93

00:18:13.380 It lies about pretty much everything.

00:18:15.880 She's probably lying about this too.

00:18:17.220 But even beyond the story, even the points she's making in it are not true.

00:18:23.340 She says this race is not about fighting other Democrats.

00:18:27.980 No, it is.

00:18:28.780 That's what a primary campaign is.

00:18:30.360 A primary campaign is when you battle people of your own party and then one of you gets

00:18:34.760 nominated and then you battle the people of the other party.

00:18:37.500 Also, almost certainly untrue is that the girl had six dollars in the bank.

00:18:40.560 Why is that untrue?

00:18:41.340 Because very few people have six dollars in the bank.

00:18:44.960 Now, some people are broke, but they don't have six dollars in the bank.

00:18:49.140 Some people, maybe they have, I don't know, two hundred dollars in the bank or a thousand

00:18:53.660 dollars in the bank and they got a ton of debt.

00:18:55.440 So they're, they're broke, but they have more than six dollars in the bank.

00:18:58.920 Some people are overdrawn on their bank accounts, right?

00:19:01.440 It goes, it's in the negative.

00:19:03.320 But very few people have six dollars specifically in the bank.

00:19:06.980 That seems like it was a number that was constructed to tell a, well, ultimately not very convincing

00:19:13.960 political story.

00:19:15.460 If the story is true, Elizabeth Warren should not have taken the money. 0.97

00:19:21.340 What is she thinking?

00:19:23.180 First of all, her campaign is over, more or less.

00:19:26.460 After her dismal performance in New Hampshire, it's probably not going on very far.

00:19:29.620 But also, it's just wrong to do that.

00:19:33.280 Liz Warren is not some messianic religious figure, okay?

00:19:35.800 Liz Warren is not, she's a politician, okay?

00:19:40.620 I mean, the story that she's telling is sort of like the story of the widow's might in the

00:19:44.640 gospels, you know?

00:19:45.800 Christ talks about how this, this widow, this poor widow gave what little she had and, and

00:19:52.180 gave it as an offering and that this was worth so much more than what the wealthy people

00:19:57.640 had given because she'd given so much of what she had.

00:20:00.060 Well, Elizabeth Warren isn't Jesus, okay?

00:20:03.080 This isn't a sacrifice that you're offering to God.

00:20:06.680 It's, you're making a donation to some political campaign and in this case, one that's going

00:20:11.360 to lose that.

00:20:12.220 But that is how Elizabeth Warren is portraying it. 1.00

00:20:15.720 It's so ravenous.

00:20:17.080 It's so filled with rage to use Ayanna Pressley's term.

00:20:21.400 It's so aggressive.

00:20:22.520 This is toxic.

00:20:29.220 It's toxic effeminacy.

00:20:31.160 Different than toxic femininity, okay?

00:20:33.560 It's not feminine. 0.59

00:20:35.180 It's effeminate.

00:20:36.480 It's not womanly. 0.99

00:20:37.640 It's womanish. 1.00

00:20:38.520 What's the difference?

00:20:39.600 What we're seeing here from AOC's boyfriend to Ayanna Pressley to whatever, to Liz Warren

00:20:45.520 to, what we're seeing specifically though among men in this country is all the worst characteristics 0.78

00:20:52.820 associated with women with none of the good characteristics.

00:20:58.140 What we're seeing here is that leftism is intrinsically effeminate.

00:21:04.000 All the worst characteristics of women, none of the good characteristics. 1.00

00:21:07.380 Leftism is not nurturing.

00:21:09.220 It's not beautiful.

00:21:10.200 It's not particularly good at multitasking.

00:21:13.840 It's not fruitful.

00:21:16.160 What it is, is overbearing and desirous of dependency.

00:21:19.740 It is toxic.

00:21:21.580 Now there's a bad kind of masculinity too, right?

00:21:24.080 There's a masculinity that's toxic.

00:21:27.180 That's called machismo, right?

00:21:29.800 Men have bad tendencies as well as good tendencies.

00:21:33.340 And when you take all the bad tendencies and just make them all go together, that's toxic.

00:21:38.640 But our threat in our culture is not from toxic masculinity, all right?

00:21:45.080 Our culture does not suffer from being too masculine.

00:21:48.480 The threat here is really from toxic effeminacy.

00:21:51.480 And you can see that toxicity in certain women, but you see it in certain men too, who are willing

00:21:57.320 to take all of these awful, awful characteristics and none of the good ones.

00:22:01.400 There's one last example of this that really shoots down all of the claims that AOC's boyfriend

00:22:09.280 is making.

00:22:09.960 It really makes that video look even more ridiculous than it already is.

00:22:12.900 That's a story out of UVA where a student there speaking at the Multicultural Student Center

00:22:17.920 insisted that the white people got to get out because there's too many white people.

00:22:21.680 We'll get to that in a second.

00:22:22.660 First, got to thank our friends over it.

00:22:24.680 Keeps, two out of three guys, will experience some form of male pattern baldness by the time

00:23:17.440 That is K-E-E-P-S.com slash Knowles, K-N-O-W-L-E-S.

00:23:23.400 Head on over, do it now.

00:23:25.780 There's this video just came out of UVA and it's, it's from the Multicultural Student

00:23:32.820 Center.

00:23:33.320 The Young America's Foundation obtained the video.

00:23:35.640 I guess a student secretly recorded it.

00:23:37.840 This is of a young gal, a woman of color who stands up there and says that this is the

00:23:43.760 Multicultural Student Center and therefore you can't have that many white people here.

00:23:47.580 Now you might think multicultural means all different kinds of cultures, all different

00:23:50.980 kind of people who all look different.

00:23:52.960 No, that's not how she's interpreting it.

00:23:55.080 She's saying more or less we need to have a segregated student center and white people

00:23:58.960 need to get lost.

00:24:00.260 Public service announcement.

00:24:03.020 Excuse me.

00:24:04.400 If y'all didn't know, this is the MSC and frankly, there's just too many white people in 0.80

00:24:09.560 here and this is a space for people of color.

00:24:11.200 So just be really cognizant of the space that you're taking up because it does make some

00:24:16.100 of us POCs uncomfortable when we see too many white people in here.

00:24:19.620 It's only been open for four days and frankly, there's the whole university for a lot of y'all

00:24:24.160 to be at and there's very few spaces for us.

00:24:27.160 So keep that in mind.

00:24:28.620 Thank you.

00:24:29.740 Too many white people.

00:24:30.840 Get those white people out of here. 0.99

00:24:31.860 So if racism has a definition anymore and the left has pretty much degraded that word

00:24:38.320 down to nothing, but if racism has a definition, that is racist.

00:24:43.100 That is the textbook example of racism.

00:24:47.160 You don't hear that description in the AOC boyfriend video, do you?

00:24:51.240 Now in the AOC boyfriend video, it's only white people who can ever be racist, who can

00:24:55.500 ever harbor bigotry and white people can never get rid of it and nobody else could have

00:24:59.940 it.

00:25:00.060 Now, that's so silly.

00:25:03.100 That's so unbalanced.

00:25:05.680 It's so wrong.

00:25:08.120 If you, I think there's this idea that comes out of this toxic effeminacy that you've just

00:25:15.420 got to surrender yourself entirely.

00:25:18.180 You've just got to give away any backbone you might have.

00:25:21.100 You can never have an opinion.

00:25:22.320 If you're a white person, you're bad.

00:25:23.520 If you're a man, you're bad. 0.99

00:25:25.160 If you're straight, you're bad and your opinions are invalid and you can't say anything. 1.00

00:25:28.780 And this is based on a theory of historical injustice and, and present victimhood that

00:25:36.420 comes together in the left-wing ideology called intersectionality.

00:25:39.740 It's just victim politics on steroids. 0.96

00:25:41.660 And so you see, you see it in AOC's boyfriend.

00:25:45.660 He just says, I, I just talked to white people.

00:25:47.980 We're just so bad.

00:25:48.760 We'll never be better, but I'm trying, please.

00:25:50.400 I'm trying.

00:25:50.980 You don't see AOC make a similar acknowledgement.

00:25:53.180 So, you know, I'm, I've got my problems too.

00:25:55.420 I've got my flaws as well.

00:25:56.580 And maybe I should look into myself and convince my fellow congresswomen or my fellow women,

00:26:02.480 whoever, that, that we've got stuff to work on too.

00:26:05.220 No, it's only in one direction.

00:26:07.080 I mean, obviously if, if a white student stood up at any center on any university campus and

00:26:12.820 said, Hey, we, we don't really like that there are so many non-white people here. 1.00

00:26:16.520 So just for, this is a space for white people and everyone else has to leave. 0.95

00:26:20.540 That would be an international incident.

00:26:22.200 You'd have the UN investigating it or something, but, but in this case, it only goes in one

00:26:29.800 direction.

00:26:30.300 I think if you want to restore a sense of justice to the country, then you've got to, you've

00:26:38.080 got to, you can't let it get to an extreme like that.

00:26:40.680 You can't, I don't think there's anything wrong with acknowledging that there are some

00:26:44.640 bad traits of men.

00:26:45.740 And if that's all that toxic masculinity means, okay, that's fine.

00:26:49.380 I accept that.

00:26:49.960 But likewise, you've got to recognize that there is toxic effeminacy.

00:26:54.600 If you're going to say that one group can harbor racial biases, then you have to acknowledge

00:26:58.200 that other groups can harbor racial biases as well.

00:27:02.280 But unfortunately, that's not the situation we see because, because of leftism, because

00:27:07.060 leftism makes it so one-sided.

00:27:09.280 It's so domineering.

00:27:10.280 It's so ravenous.

00:27:11.520 It's so desirous of consuming everything in its wake.

00:27:16.480 Leftism will not be the answer to that.

00:27:18.080 The irony of that UVA video is that it's at the multicultural student center.

00:27:23.540 The theory of multiculturalism is that you're going to bring everybody together and you're

00:27:27.460 all going to sing kumbaya.

00:27:28.540 But what's the practice?

00:27:29.520 The practice is actually increasing racial division, actually increasing the bigotry.

00:27:36.720 You see it all around.

00:27:38.480 The idea of feminism is that everybody's going to be equal and kumbaya and come together. 1.00

00:27:42.180 What's the practice?

00:27:42.900 It's division, rancor, rage, as Ayanna Pressley is describing it.

00:27:50.300 That is not the answer.

00:27:51.560 We have to restore some balance and you need to see where the threat really lies.

00:27:54.720 Is the threat in toxic masculinity?

00:27:56.760 When you look at those videos, do you think that we have a surplus of masculinity or does

00:28:01.500 the threat lie on the opposite end?

00:28:04.240 We have got to get to the mailbag.

00:28:05.640 But first, I've got to tell you about a new podcast, The Cold War.

00:28:08.820 What we saw, hosted by our friend Bill Whittle.

00:28:12.380 If you love history and you just despise communism like I do, then you're going to want to check

00:28:18.100 it out.

00:28:18.540 Bill captures what it was like to live through major events such as the Berlin airlift, the

00:28:23.520 Korean War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the space race.

00:28:26.800 And really what you would call it is the apocalypse that never happened.

00:28:30.800 So if you're around my age, you were not alive for any of those events.

00:28:34.600 The story is told so well.

00:28:36.140 The setting is so brilliantly set that as you go through these events, you'll feel like

00:28:41.780 you were there.

00:28:42.400 You'll start to understand the battle, not only for economic freedom, but for civilization

00:28:47.160 itself.

00:28:48.540 So they've already released two episodes of this 12-part series and you've got some to

00:28:52.640 catch up on now.

00:28:53.360 So head on over.

00:28:54.220 It's a great time to listen as the 2020 election starts to heat up and we can see where the

00:28:58.860 left has gone.

00:28:59.560 Full-blown commie in so many of their policies and their language, especially as Bernie Sanders

00:29:04.000 is beginning to run away with the Democratic nomination.

00:29:07.260 Head on over to dailywire.com slash cold war and start listening to this incredibly important

00:29:12.380 story.

00:29:13.460 That is dailywire.com slash cold war.

00:29:16.560 Head on over now.

00:29:18.100 We'll be right back with the mailbag.

00:29:19.220 All right, let's get into the mailbag.

00:29:36.000 From Kyle, cordial greetings, Michael, Archbishop of the Diocese of the Daily Wire.

00:29:41.400 Wondering if you can summarize some of the key political policies of the Whig Party and

00:29:45.840 how they compare to the two major extant political parties, on which issues would Whigs and Republicans

00:29:50.980 clash, on which contemporary issues would Whigs and modern Democrats clash.

00:29:54.840 Love the show and everything you guys do.

00:29:57.040 So now we have two major parties, the Democrats and the Republicans.

00:30:01.320 Before the Republicans, you had two major parties, the Democrats and the Whigs.

00:30:06.460 The problem with trying to draw an exact line or analogy between these parties is that politics

00:30:13.920 change over time.

00:30:15.000 This is one of the struggles of the Trump era is you have some kind of boomer Republicans

00:30:20.640 being really upset that political positions ever adjust to changing circumstances.

00:30:25.540 So they'll say, no, we used to have this policy, but now, 30 years later, we have this new policy

00:30:32.240 or we've changed the policy a little bit.

00:30:33.860 But that's what happens in politics.

00:30:35.260 So broadly speaking, you could say that the Republican Party was the successor to the Whig 0.83

00:30:40.800 Party, that the Whigs were the forerunner of the Republicans, but there were some, there

00:30:46.940 were some similarities and there were some differences.

00:30:48.640 So the, the Whig Party broadly was founded as a kind of nationalist party.

00:30:53.860 In that way, I guess they have a similarity to the current Republican Party.

00:30:58.660 They had a lot of support in the North, but they actually, the Whigs did fairly well in

00:31:03.060 the South as well.

00:31:03.860 They had a real ability to compete there.

00:31:06.800 The Whigs were founded on law and order. 0.62

00:31:10.200 The Whigs were founded on preserving tradition.

00:31:12.520 The Whigs were founded on, in many ways, they were the successor of the Federalist Party,

00:31:17.440 which was the kind of founding party of America and wrote the, they defended the Constitution.

00:31:21.940 The, the Democrats accused the Whigs of being the successors to the Federalist Party.

00:31:27.080 And so in that way, they, there's a real similarity to the Republican Party.

00:31:31.640 Now, maybe a difference would be that the Whigs were very pro-tariff.

00:31:35.200 They were founded as a pro-tariff party.

00:31:37.140 And if you thought about the Republican Party from say 1950 to 2015, you would say they were

00:31:42.840 the anti-tariff party.

00:31:44.580 But even that doesn't tell the whole story because the modern Republican Party from the

00:31:48.440 days of Abraham Lincoln was pro-tariff.

00:31:53.600 Abraham Lincoln said, you give me a tariff, I'll give you the greatest nation on earth.

00:31:57.120 Then in the middle of the 20th century, it became very anti-tariff.

00:32:00.060 Now it's kind of pro-tariff again under President Trump, or, or at least it's unclear.

00:32:04.020 You can't tell if he just wants to use tariffs as a strategy or if he thinks, or as a tactic

00:32:08.300 rather to negotiate, or if he thinks that it's actually good for the economy.

00:32:14.080 That's a long answer to a simple question.

00:32:16.380 But what I, I really want to show you here is that political parties are not so simple

00:32:21.800 and they're not stagnant.

00:32:22.980 They don't stay, remain exactly the same as they always were.

00:32:25.760 They develop over time.

00:32:27.100 This is why the Democrats say that the Republican and the Democratic Party switched.

00:32:30.640 They didn't really switch.

00:32:32.440 Of course, no one came together one day and said, hey, from now on, you Democrats are going

00:32:36.900 to be Republicans and we Republicans are going to be Democrats.

00:32:39.060 That obviously is ridiculous.

00:32:41.020 They didn't really switch on their core principles either.

00:32:43.480 The Republican Party was founded to defend freedom.

00:32:46.480 It was founded on the issue of slavery and they've taken that principle throughout the course 0.97

00:32:50.640 of their existence.

00:32:51.860 But regional support has changed over time.

00:32:55.580 The Democratic Party has become far leftist and that irritated people who were slightly

00:32:59.700 more socially conservative.

00:33:00.860 And so some of them, especially in the South, became Republican.

00:33:03.980 They change over time.

00:33:05.440 That is why occasionally political parties collapse like the Whigs and new parties come up to address

00:33:10.700 new challenges like the Republicans.

00:33:12.940 From Michael.

00:33:14.640 Hey, Michael.

00:33:15.420 When arguing religion with someone the other day, they challenged me to prove Jesus was a real

00:33:19.660 person without pointing to the Bible.

00:33:21.640 My question to you is, other than religious texts, is there any proof that Jesus was a

00:33:26.660 real person?

00:33:27.400 Thank you.

00:33:28.700 Yes.

00:33:29.780 I think it's kind of silly to say, hey, ignore the most famous texts about this person that

00:33:34.300 rely on 500 eyewitnesses, which is what we're talking about when we're talking about the

00:33:39.060 New Testament.

00:33:39.840 But even so, there are non-Christian sources that attest to the existence of Jesus.

00:33:45.320 Most prominent is probably the Jewish historian Josephus, who wrote an account of Jesus within

00:33:50.380 60 years of the crucifixion, so within a lifetime of the crucifixion.

00:33:55.620 Josephus knew people and spoke to people who had seen and heard Jesus, so he was exposed

00:34:01.080 to these firsthand accounts.

00:34:02.820 The historian Tacitus, writing about 80 years after the crucifixion, wrote an account of Jesus,

00:34:08.480 so also, you know, about within a lifetime.

00:34:10.740 This was also around the same time that the Roman governor, Pliny the Younger, wrote about

00:34:15.360 Jesus, and also around the same time that the historian Suetonius refers to Jesus.

00:34:20.980 So there are multiple non-scriptural sources of the existence of Jesus.

00:34:28.080 And because of that, certainly because of that, but even on its own, I would then say you shouldn't

00:34:35.780 be so quick to dismiss the New Testament accounts because the New Testament accounts are written

00:34:40.500 by people who had seen Jesus, who had heard Jesus, and who knew Jesus.

00:34:44.180 From Paige, hey Michael, when I was growing up in Central Texas, my father worked for a

00:34:48.580 large company that had at least one family-oriented activity a year.

00:34:52.040 My husband and I work in a major tech company that has numerous employee activities.

00:34:56.680 However, nothing is family-focused.

00:34:59.100 Family isn't invited at all.

00:35:00.740 During your shows, you guys were talking about nuclear families and how they've changed

00:35:04.360 over the years.

00:35:05.340 Why do you think companies have shifted to not include the employees' families?

00:35:09.180 Do you think it has something to do with the cultural shift of having kids later in life?

00:35:13.940 My husband also points out how almost nobody wants anything to do with their co-workers

00:35:17.840 outside of the office.

00:35:19.120 Look forward to hearing what you think.

00:35:21.140 That's an excellent question.

00:35:23.980 The reason that family-oriented events have fallen apart at companies is because the left

00:35:33.520 left has given us political correctness and the left has attempted pretty successfully to destroy

00:35:41.000 the family.

00:35:42.180 And those two have to go hand in hand because now it's considered politically incorrect to

00:35:48.120 refer to somebody's wife or husband.

00:35:52.300 If you assume that somebody would have a wife or husband, you're assuming their sexual preferences.

00:35:57.360 You're assuming that they don't want to remain single for their whole lives.

00:36:00.780 You're assuming a moral order that is traditional that we can all participate in.

00:36:10.080 The left has attacked the family by redefining the family, right?

00:36:14.040 By redefining marriage itself.

00:36:15.660 For all of human history everywhere in the world, sexual difference was fundamental to the

00:36:20.120 definition of marriage.

00:36:21.080 Marriage had to involve husbands and wives. 0.89

00:36:24.600 And then within the last seven or eight years, the left completely obliterated that.

00:36:28.540 Now we don't really know what the definition of marriage is.

00:36:31.280 They've redefined it to just be monogamous unions of either people who are the same sex or

00:36:37.960 different sex.

00:36:39.140 But even that is kind of dissolving.

00:36:41.480 Now there are laws being considered in this country to legalize polygamy.

00:36:44.600 Now there are throuples, including from members of Congress who are in kind of unconventional

00:36:49.800 relationships.

00:36:50.520 So that definition has just completely broken down as conservatives predicted that it would.

00:36:56.500 The other aspect of this though, by breaking down the moral order and by breaking down traditional

00:37:03.120 social mores is it's all been in pursuit of a hyper individualism.

00:37:08.740 The left has always gone after this.

00:37:10.720 It might seem counterintuitive because the left also loves collectivism.

00:37:13.900 Basically forcing everyone under the federal government, forcing everyone into these collectives.

00:37:18.220 But the first step to bringing anyone under a collective is to destroy all the barriers

00:37:23.340 to that, namely local attachments and the most local attachment, which is the attachment

00:37:28.120 to the family.

00:37:28.840 So that then you get a society of just atomized individuals who have no relation to one another

00:37:33.900 whatsoever.

00:37:34.540 And then they can all be brought together again under a collective.

00:37:37.840 So now you have a lot of employee events because we're all just viewed as individuals and we

00:37:43.580 can never presume that anybody's got any sort of attachments to anybody else.

00:37:48.440 That's the leftist dream.

00:37:50.560 I mean, Justice Anthony Kennedy, when he was writing the Planned Parenthood v. Casey decision,

00:37:55.340 he said that the Constitution gives us a right to define reality as we see fit.

00:38:05.040 I don't know where in the Constitution he found that, but that's, that's, I think the end of

00:38:09.940 the leftist dream is that we want to redefine reality itself.

00:38:13.580 That's the end of hyper individualism.

00:38:16.680 And it would make you mad if you, if you didn't have any reality to grab onto, if you were just

00:38:20.620 kind of swimming in your own head and your own fantasies, that would truly drive you insane.

00:38:25.900 But I guess it has for many people on the left.

00:38:28.520 And that's why you're not going to see it anytime soon.

00:38:30.560 It's also why conservatives need to recognize that the cultural issues are the most important

00:38:36.000 ones and the political or economic issues fall downstream of that.

00:38:41.340 If we don't defend traditional institutions, if we don't defend our cultural inheritance,

00:38:47.300 if we don't defend the family itself, then all those other things that we want are, are

00:38:51.540 going to be meaningless because the left will have won the decisive battle.

00:38:55.140 From Paul, hi, Michael, big fan here.

00:38:57.320 My sister and brother-in-law recently contacted my wife and I to let us know that my 15-year-old

00:39:02.880 niece wants to transition to a boy. 1.00

00:39:04.960 And after going to group counseling for a while, they're going to support her.

00:39:10.140 I have many thoughts on this and I do feel comfortable approaching my sister about that decision.

00:39:14.280 My question is, should I?

00:39:15.260 She's not my child, so it's not really my place, but she is my niece.

00:39:19.320 And I've heard stories of increased suicide rates for trans teens.

00:39:22.120 I'd hate for something like that to happen and for me to have said nothing that may have

00:39:26.920 helped prevent it.

00:39:27.660 So should I say something?

00:39:28.720 Thanks.

00:39:29.280 Yes, you should prevent it.

00:39:30.760 You should say something at least.

00:39:32.780 You should say that boys cannot magically become girls.

00:39:39.780 Girls cannot magically become boys. 0.97

00:39:41.660 Men and women are different.

00:39:42.780 You should say that the ideology that is behind transgenderism is extraordinarily new and it's 0.99

00:39:49.380 changing all the time and it's internally contradictory.

00:39:53.000 Because on the one hand, we're told that gender is nothing.

00:39:56.040 Gender is socially constructed.

00:39:57.520 It doesn't matter at all.

00:39:58.860 On the other hand, we're told that gender is so innate, so important, so essential that

00:40:04.920 we've got to go through expensive and painful mutilations to try to make our bodies fit

00:40:10.520 closer to our minds.

00:40:13.260 You should show your family that the idea of gender and sex being different doesn't make

00:40:20.880 any sense because the ideology tells us that sex is biological.

00:40:25.080 You know, I look like a man.

00:40:26.480 I've got male genitalia. 1.00

00:40:27.560 I've got a Y chromosome.

00:40:28.380 But gender is in the mind. 0.99

00:40:31.200 It's not physical.

00:40:32.300 It's actually metaphysical.

00:40:33.880 But of course, if that were true, it'd be much easier just to change your mind, right?

00:40:37.160 Because it's a lot simpler to change your mind than it is to go through these expensive

00:40:40.680 mutilations.

00:40:41.560 Except when you tell that to people who push this gender ideology, they then completely

00:40:45.720 move the goalposts and they say, no, no, no.

00:40:47.440 It's not just in your mind.

00:40:48.600 It's physical too.

00:40:49.480 It's in your brain.

00:40:50.480 People who are born with, who are, have a male sex but a female gender, their brains actually 0.54

00:40:56.400 look more like women. 0.99

00:40:57.480 But if you say, okay, if it's in the brain, that's physical then.

00:40:59.540 So it's biological as well.

00:41:01.160 And then this distinction between sex and gender completely breaks down.

00:41:05.680 And then on the most personal level, what you should tell them is that the pioneer of

00:41:11.020 the transgender surgery, Dr. Paul McHugh at Johns Hopkins, head of psychiatry at Johns

00:41:15.520 Hopkins, started the gender clinic there and he shut it down. 0.97

00:41:21.300 He shut it down years later because he realized it was medical malpractice because he realized

00:41:27.560 that what you cite, those high rates of suicide among teenagers with gender dysphoria, which

00:41:32.120 is a real condition, those high rates of suicide did not go down after the surgery.

00:41:38.460 Rates of stress, anxiety, depression, even suicidality did not go down.

00:41:42.780 The surgery did nothing.

00:41:44.400 And in some cases it caused profound regret.

00:41:46.800 We're now seeing huge rates of regret of people who have transitioned, so-called, or

00:41:53.500 been transitioned.

00:41:54.740 And you should tell them that 15-year-olds are not in the position to make these kinds

00:42:01.040 of decisions that could, that will inevitably affect the rest of their lives.

00:42:05.020 We have an age of consent for a reason, right?

00:42:07.940 If you, if you're a 25-year-old guy and you sleep with a 15-year-old girl, you'll go to

00:42:15.160 jail, rightly, you'll go to jail because 15-year-olds are deemed not able to make those sorts of

00:42:21.320 decisions that could affect the rest of their lives.

00:42:24.600 But what on earth does a one-night stand compare with fundamentally mutilating your body and

00:42:30.700 going on hormones and stopping puberty and making yourself infertile?

00:42:34.180 I mean, it's a one-night stand is as far less permanent deleterious effects than doing something

00:42:42.740 like radically changing your body.

00:42:44.660 So by any standard, by any measure, what, what the gender ideology movement is doing to teenagers

00:42:52.280 is criminal, it's immoral, it is indefensible, and it is ruining lives.

00:42:57.300 And you should at least present that kind of information to your family, if really so that

00:43:04.180 you can try to help your niece, but if for no other reason, so that you can rest easy

00:43:07.860 and let your conscience go easy, that you did what you could to stop this terrible idea.

00:43:12.940 All right, from Anonymous, I was reading AOC's profile on Wikipedia and it says she graduated

00:43:18.700 from Boston University with honors in international relations and economics.

00:43:22.680 I find it very difficult to believe that AOC has a degree in economics.

00:43:26.960 Is there any way to confirm that she has a degree in econ from BU?

00:43:29.760 If so, remind me not to send my kids there.

00:43:32.100 Thanks.

00:43:33.080 It would appear that she does have a degree in economics from BU and perhaps you shouldn't

00:43:36.720 send your kids there.

00:43:38.840 Or perhaps she was just a terrible student.

00:43:40.840 The real problem is not just at BU, but at universities all around the country.

00:43:44.480 Standards have fallen so dramatically and grade inflation has gotten so rampant that you can

00:43:50.060 graduate, you can graduate now from Yale with a degree in English summa cum laude and not

00:43:55.060 have read at William Shakespeare.

00:43:57.180 Okay, that's not just a BU problem.

00:43:59.460 That is a problem at universities overall and it means that maybe when you're thinking about

00:44:05.500 which school your kid's going to go to, you're going to have a much harder issue than just

00:44:08.800 avoiding BU.

00:44:09.740 Last question from Nick.

00:44:11.280 I have a common problem.

00:44:13.540 I really enjoy having a cigar on the weekends.

00:44:15.820 The issue is my girlfriend doesn't approve and said it's either her or the cigars.

00:44:22.840 With all the extra money I have now, which cigar brands should I stock up on?

00:44:26.840 Thanks.

00:44:27.560 A great question.

00:44:29.640 You should stock up on my father.

00:44:32.220 You should stock up on Tatuaje and Padron and Flor Dominicana.

00:44:35.720 You obviously have the right idea on this and it's an idea that I think you have received

00:44:42.000 from the great poet Rudyard Kipling who wrote a famous poem on this called The Betrothed.

00:44:47.300 It's one of my favorite poems and it's about how a guy has to choose between his fiancee

00:44:54.400 Maggie and his cigar.

00:44:56.780 His fiancee Maggie has given him an ultimatum and he's got to choose.

00:45:01.340 And the poem goes on and on and on.

00:45:03.420 It's very profound, but it concludes.

00:45:09.060 A million surplus Maggies are willing to bear the yoke. 1.00

00:45:12.760 And a woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke. 1.00

00:45:16.760 Light me another Cuba, I hold to my first sworn vows.

00:45:20.900 If Maggie will have no rival, I'll have no Maggie for spouse.

00:45:25.660 That's our show.

00:45:26.860 That's our week.

00:45:28.320 We'll be coming back on Monday.

00:46:38.240 Democrats say they're worried about Bernie Sanders because they don't think he can win.

00:46:42.180 But maybe they're really worried because they think he can.

00:46:44.860 After all, socialism sucks.

00:46:47.040 And even the Democrats know it deep down.

00:46:49.380 We'll talk about it on The Andrew Klavan Show.
