The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Conservatives WIN young men because of Leftists like this!

00:00:00.000 want to take a second to show you some shocking data it is from last year and it shows how young

00:00:03.360 men are breaking conservative broadly in a range of countries there's always hey guys

00:00:07.360 wyatt claypool here today i want to talk about this video put out by the canadian progressive

00:00:14.240 youtuber steve boots discussing the topic of why young men are starting to vote conservative all

00:00:21.200 around the west it's a great case study because at the same time he's trying to understand and

00:00:27.120 explain why young men are starting to move in this way politically he completely misses the point in

00:00:33.680 fact in a strange way steve boots misses the point so hard he comes all the way back around and

00:00:40.960 perfectly models why young men do not want to vote for parties like the ndp that steve boots frequently

00:00:48.240 stumps for just check out this clip right here so the question we need to ask is why is this happening

00:00:54.400 and i want to be really clear before we start here this is not about coddling or making excuses

00:00:58.960 for young men what i'm asking folks to do is to look at the systems and circumstances that are

00:01:03.840 pushing young men in those directions the man is such a progressive zealot that even in this video

00:01:09.920 entitled why are men voting conservative he cannot acknowledge that men may actually have some good

00:01:16.400 points he has to give a disclaimer to his audience that no no no i'm not coddling or making any excuses

00:01:22.560 for these young men i'm just also wanting to blame institutions and systems for having contributed

00:01:28.880 to their corruption it's a video where he doesn't actually care why young men are voting conservative

00:01:35.680 he just doesn't like that they're not voting for the left that is really the thesis of this video

00:01:41.280 young men should be voting left why are they not voting left not do young men have legitimate 1.00

00:01:46.640 reasons for voting conservative he frames it all as they're doing something wrong let's figure out

00:01:51.920 why they're doing something wrong because i think we need to be able to think with a little more

00:01:55.600 depth than just men are evil that clip really made me laugh because steve boots is trying to define

00:02:01.840 himself as a reasonable moderate in this conversation because he doesn't think that young men are evil

00:02:09.200 wow what a consolation prize for young men that steve here doesn't think they're evil although in the

00:02:15.680 previous clip of steve talking that i just showed he was framing young men as the villains which is why

00:02:22.160 he is not going to coddle or make excuses for them because while there are indeed evil men out there there

00:02:27.920 are evil people of all genders and simply being a man does not make someone by definition evil so what 0.99

00:02:32.400 is actually going on here because a lot of it comes down to belief around traditional roles and gender

00:02:36.080 roles in particular but it also includes things like beliefs around authority young men have grown

00:02:39.760 increasingly authoritarian oh absolutely steve young men are growing increasingly authoritarian and

00:02:46.560 that's why they're voting for conservative parties that want to do dangerous authoritarian things like

00:02:52.880 cut taxes reduce regulations cut funding to wasteful government programs make it easier to get a gun

00:03:01.520 license you know things like that that would be right at home in nazi germany or fascist italy this is

00:03:09.200 all rather ridiculous coming from steve boots a big government supporting socialist who has endorsed hate

00:03:16.480 speech laws he just defines authoritarianism as being whatever he doesn't support so if young men want

00:03:23.760 smaller government that by definition is authoritarian because steve boots wants big government he does

00:03:30.960 include an asinine example where he cites a poll where 25 of young men in the united states would support

00:03:38.480 the president having powers unrestrained by congress but that's more just political naivete of younger

00:03:45.200 people being frustrated that things the president's doing that they like can be blocked by congress

00:03:50.800 that's just a feature of the american system that people eventually learn about and accept for starters we

00:03:57.200 need to ask where do the expectations and beliefs that young men hold come from because they don't just

00:04:01.520 blow in on the wind they are taught they are pushed into young people from an early age and online

00:04:06.000 ecosystems just exasperated it's not just from parents although a very large portion of it's from

00:04:10.640 parents one of the bigger determinants in a young man's attitude and behavior is his relationship with

00:04:14.320 his father or a trusted male adult figure positive male role models lead to positive behavior now he's

00:04:20.080 just done a few things here that are kind of odd he implies that young men are learning conservatism from

00:04:28.000 like school or growing up when in fact in schools today you tend to have more of a left-wing narrative

00:04:35.360 taught when it comes to social studies and other social issues so really it's that younger men are

00:04:42.000 rejecting what is being taught in schools and then he moves on to talking about positive male role models

00:04:49.120 and father figures he implies as if you should be coming out as a leftist if you had a positive

00:04:56.960 relationship with your father or male role model it's absolutely insane because the stereotype tends

00:05:03.840 to be the other way around that if you don't like your dad you may become a resentful leftist not that

00:05:10.160 that's actually how it works but the stereotype is that way sort of for a reason but there is a

00:05:16.560 shortage of positive online male role models look online if you were a young man in particular spending

00:05:21.520 time online where would you likely spend that time roblox fortnite youtube youtube is absolutely

00:05:26.400 packed with male-centric content that reinforces traditional ideals stuff like jordan peterson

00:05:30.320 and joe rogan and theo von a lot of these incredibly widely viewed youtube accounts are

00:05:33.920 embracing a much more traditional view of masculinity and of society in general and this shows up in

00:05:38.640 the statistics young men are broadly less and less feminist and more and more embracing of

00:05:42.400 traditional often exploitative gender roles he just implies that traditional values and gender roles

00:05:49.120 are inherently bad and that men should want to identify as feminists because he highlights it as 0.97

00:05:56.640 an issue that they don't want to identify as feminists anymore and he's about to bring up a chart 0.99

00:06:02.160 that i think actually just hurts his own point because it demonstrates many women also agree with those

00:06:08.000 same men 17 of overall people under the age of 35 believe that a man who stays home to care for his

00:06:13.840 children is less of a man according to a recent ipsos survey but when you break it out into men versus

00:06:18.720 women 26 of men under the age of 35 believe that compared to 10 of women and only 41 of young men

00:06:24.720 identify themselves as feminists so where are these beliefs coming from now let's just quickly

00:06:31.040 over and pull the parking brake and look at this chart a little bit more in detail look at the women 1.00

00:06:37.760 under 35 side of the chart and look at the question i define myself as a feminist now this is a 1.00

00:06:45.680 question that obviously should get more women to agree because it's basically saying you're a woman 1.00

00:06:50.880 are you pro-woman that's how a lot of people will think about it even though that's not really what

00:06:55.920 being a feminist means even for that question there were 38 of women who didn't agree perhaps someone 1.00

00:07:03.760 like steve boots would claim those women are just experiencing internalized misogyny or maybe they 1.00

00:07:10.640 also can see what many young men see as being the flaw with feminist culture right now and there's a 1.00

00:07:16.080 bunch of part of it but one of the biggest reasons is that people cling on to tradition in uncertainty

00:07:20.880 when people are scared when people don't know what life or the future holds for them often they will

00:07:24.560 hold on to tradition hold on to the old ways of doing things because it gives them a sense of

00:07:28.880 stability and control again he just talks about tradition that way without actually explaining

00:07:33.920 why it's bad and i think young people in general but young men in particular feel a lack of control

00:07:38.880 over their lives they are told from a very early age that their role is the provider the source of

00:07:43.120 strength and stability and if they don't feel like they can do that it creates a lot of internal

00:07:46.960 turmoil but at the same time they aren't really being given the tools or the supports in order to

00:07:51.120 manage that or to unpack those beliefs or feelings this whole video and especially the next sections

00:07:57.200 is just steve boots belittling the problems of younger men and acting like it's just a social

00:08:02.800 problem like he just needs to be able to sit young men down so that he can unpack all of their issues

00:08:09.440 explain to them concisely why they're all wrong and so that they can realize that they should just

00:08:15.520 fall in line and that everything is actually totally okay in the new progressive world obviously it's

00:08:22.080 not just look at the unemployment rate of younger men he will eventually talk about job market problems

00:08:28.960 and the housing market and other stuff like that but he kind of just skims past it like i understand

00:08:34.000 there's issues out there but don't take it out on the current system right now if you're 15 to 24 and

00:08:42.000 male you have a 15 unemployment rate in canada if you're going to university and you're a student your

00:08:49.840 unemployment rate is 20 and remember the unemployment rate is only calculating those actually looking

00:08:56.960 for work it's not including people who don't want a job and don't have one those are people trying to

00:09:02.080 find a job 20 of them cannot find one that is unprecedented and so when you have online pundits

00:09:09.600 or even political leaders who are speaking directly to young men and saying that they understand their

00:09:13.280 concerns and offering simple answers whether those answers are valid or not they tend to listen and

00:09:17.760 that's what's happening the online manosphere is colossal and a license to print money and this

00:09:22.240 is where politics comes into it right now conservatives are the group that are speaking the most directly

00:09:25.840 to young men this is where steve boots i think is just making a wrong assumption an assumption i see

00:09:32.400 a lot of people in politics make that because conservatives are capturing the young male vote that must

00:09:38.960 mean the conservatives are speaking to young men and the liberals the ndp and the greens are not

00:09:45.200 no it's that younger men like the answers that the conservatives had every party tries to win

00:09:51.120 every demographic of voter they all try and speak to them the problem for the ndp and the liberals is

00:09:57.200 that young men don't want more government in their lives they don't want higher taxes to pay for more

00:10:03.360 social programs subsidies government jobs they want to have their own adventure in life where they start

00:10:09.920 their own business or they go find work in the private sector they have their own home they don't

00:10:15.680 want government housing they want their own housing they buy with their own money this is a difference in

00:10:22.240 temperament between men and women women are more likely to vote for security where men are more likely to

00:10:28.960 want to take risks in life and have there be more freedom for them to operate as they want the ndp and the liberals

00:10:36.400 don't offer that that's why the conservatives do so well with young men because they do offer that

00:10:41.840 then they go online and they're offered easy scapegoats they're told to blame feminism and wokeness 0.98

00:10:46.400 and trudeau and the libs and everybody they are offered simple solutions and so they take them

00:10:51.120 okay i'm sorry are men not allowed to take issue with hyper progressive feminist culture even 38%

00:10:59.520 of women we just saw do not define themselves as feminist are men not allowed to take issue with

00:11:06.160 the liberals big government policies that have definitely not empowered them in the market or

00:11:11.600 made their lives better and apparently we're also not allowed to believe that simple solutions exist

00:11:17.280 because i guess that's just a simplistic dumb way of thinking i can come up with lots of simple

00:11:22.400 solutions for young men cut taxes is one of them you will immediately make the economy freer and give 0.97

00:11:28.800 them way more opportunities but again steve boots sees those as illegitimate answers because he's a

00:11:34.960 leftist and supports leftist policies this entire video is just a way of trying to pitch leftism as the

00:11:42.400 solution to men's problems which in itself is simplistic but he doesn't see it as simplistic

00:11:47.840 because he's a leftist and leftist ideology is super super intellectual they are living in systems

00:11:53.200 that they didn't build and that in many ways they are victims of but because in many cases men are the

00:11:58.000 architects of these systems they're told that they bear the blame and the responsibility but men are not

00:12:03.200 only the architects of these systems they are also the victims and from here on in the video steve boots

00:12:08.640 pretends to care about the problems of young men by bringing things up like the suicide rate and

00:12:13.840 substance abuse but up to this point he has just been belittling the things that many young men who

00:12:19.680 now vote conservative take issue with because again unless it's a leftist solution he doesn't actually see

00:12:25.760 it as a real solution and these people wonder why younger men don't want to vote for their parties

00:12:33.360 they won't even acknowledge their problems but they think that they should still listen to their

00:12:38.320 solutions for the problems that they belittle and pretend are not real problems one more thing i

00:12:44.800 want to bring up that wasn't specific to this video is that a lot of young men are also starting

00:12:50.640 to vote conservative because they don't want to be like people like steve boots young men do not like

00:12:58.000 this leftist millennial loser culture where you dress up like you don't really care you act sort of

00:13:05.120 whiny and snide all the time there's a reason why younger men look up to fictional characters who are

00:13:12.080 more masculine who wear suits or are more physically fit that's actually becoming cool again where it was

00:13:18.320 seen as very passe in the 2000s and 2010s because that's the typical western thing to idolize but why

00:13:27.600 don't we idolize alternative things that are anti-western or are very outside of the mainstream

00:13:35.040 the problem is that became the mainstream this loser culture where you just act like you don't care

00:13:41.760 everything sucks our history sucks our country sucks and we should have to transform it and turn 0.94

00:13:47.920 it into something that it's not young men don't like that garbage and now to put a cap on this video

00:13:53.600 i want to leave you with a video of steve boots freaking out over an interview where pierre paulia

00:14:00.000 of the leader of the conservative party stated that he only believes in two genders and by the way if

00:14:06.000 you like my political coverage and you've liked this video make sure to leave a like on it subscribe to

00:14:17.120 see you guys later food gas and homes in safe neighborhoods again the question was about

00:14:25.360 passports that's the promise we need for canadians if liberals want to talk about different labels

00:14:34.000 the liberals don't want to talk about it trump does he banned their existence what do you want here
