The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad - Islam and the West - Compatible？ (The Saad Truth with Dr. Saad_948)

00:00:00.000 The Muslim Brotherhood has said that we are going to conquer the West through three means.

00:00:05.900 We're going to conquer the West through the womb of our women. 0.99

00:00:09.340 We produce 5.2.

00:00:11.180 You're too lazy and you produce 1.2.

00:00:13.980 Inshallah, in 70 years, we flip you all. 0.90

00:00:16.800 Number two, we will conquer you through hijrah, through immigration. 1.00

00:00:20.920 Yalla, millions come in, no problem. 0.99

00:00:23.300 Number three, we will use your miserable freedoms against you. 1.00

00:00:27.520 You arrest someone who is Muslim. 1.00

00:00:30.340 But why, yalla, why is he Islamophobic?

00:00:33.340 Well, no, it's not because I'm Islamophobic.

00:00:35.520 It's because you, the girl that I arrested you, Muhammad. 1.00

00:00:39.540 Today, we have a very important guest.

00:00:42.580 Someone whose work has shaped the way millions of people think about culture, ideology, and the future of the West.

00:00:49.540 Dr. Ghat Saad is a professor of marketing, an evolutionary behavioral scientist,

00:00:54.320 and the best-selling author of The Parasitic Mind.

00:00:57.520 A book that explains how dangerous ideas spread, like mental parasites, and damage our society from the inside.

00:01:05.080 He also wrote the upcoming book, Suicidal Empathy,

00:01:08.400 where he shows how blind compassion and political correctness can actually destroy a nation's ability to survive.

00:01:15.000 This interview is not about hate.

00:01:17.760 It's also not about attacking people.

00:01:19.700 It's about protecting freedom, protecting Western values, and understanding the reality we are facing.

00:01:26.480 So sit back and get ready for a powerful discussion with Dr. Ghat Saad.

00:01:31.420 Let's begin.

00:01:32.460 Ghat, thank you so much for joining me.

00:01:34.900 Pleasure to be with you, Sahar.

00:01:36.140 To the people who don't know, Ghat is actually one of my role models when it comes to, first of all, content creation.

00:01:41.480 The way you speak is phenomenal, and we also have some sort of common ground.

00:01:46.360 Ghat was raised in Lebanon, just like my grandmother, who was also raised in Lebanon,

00:01:52.000 and then smuggled inside a pot into Israel because of violence towards our family.

00:01:57.220 Her parents were actually born in Syria, but that's the common ground we have,

00:02:00.200 and that's why both of us look as good.

00:02:03.700 That's right.

00:02:04.780 I've been told that you are a very good-looking guy, and I now confirm this to be true.

00:02:10.300 Beautiful.

00:02:11.100 I would love to hear your personal story, how it all began,

00:02:15.720 what it was like growing up for you in Lebanon.

00:02:18.500 Right.

00:02:18.820 So I was born in Lebanon, grew up there till the age of 11.

00:02:24.980 You know, of course, Arabic is our mother tongue.

00:02:28.200 At home, with my parents, we spoke Arabic.

00:02:30.960 Even when we moved to Canada, we spoke Arabic.

00:02:33.820 We listened to Arabic music, you know, Arabic culture.

00:02:38.240 Of course, there was one small problem, is that we were Jewish.

00:02:42.340 And so while much of my extended family had already left Lebanon by the start of the Civil War in 1975,

00:02:51.180 my parents had steadfastly refused to leave.

00:02:55.100 They refused to read the warning signs everywhere because they were very well entrenched within Lebanese society.

00:03:02.780 Then when the Civil War started in 1975, it became very, very difficult, if not impossible, to be Jewish.

00:03:10.520 And so we had to leave.

00:03:11.720 But then oftentimes people ask me, OK, so prior to the Civil War, was it all beautiful and perfect and rosy in Lebanon?

00:03:19.240 And the short answer is no.

00:03:22.500 You know, people usually construe Lebanon or old Lebanon as, you know, the Paris of the Middle East.

00:03:29.160 And it's a place of tolerance and progressivism and so on.

00:03:33.080 I mean, the answer is yes, but in the context of the Middle East, right, we tolerate you until we decide not to tolerate you, right? 0.70

00:03:41.760 You're safe until you're no longer safe, just like a heart attack, right?

00:03:45.040 You're walking and jogging and you're perfectly healthy and then, oops, you're dead.

00:03:48.960 And so that's really what happens to usually all dimmis in the middle, in Islamic lands. 1.00

00:03:57.020 Dimmi, for your viewers who may not know, is a Quranic concept, an Arabic term, that refers to religious minorities that are not even second class, third class citizens under Islamic rule.

00:04:11.960 Look how nice we are as Islamic overlords.

00:04:15.160 We tolerate you and we don't kill you and you just have to mind your business.

00:04:20.180 Don't show your identity too much.

00:04:23.460 Be quiet and hopefully you'll live peacefully while we protect you.

00:04:27.720 You see how nice we are?

00:04:29.660 And so, of course, eventually that all your welcome always runs out and then you have to put on really good running shoes and outrun those who want to behead you.

00:04:40.420 But I discuss in The Parasitic Mind, in the first chapter, so that people get a sense of what it is to grow up as a religious minority in the Middle East, I explained how endemic Jew hatred was, even in a place like, quote, modern Lebanon.

00:04:56.940 So I tell the story of when that was probably the first time that I ever saw or I remember Jew hatred when Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1970, the Egyptian president passed away.

00:05:09.160 He was really revered in the Middle East because he was a pan-Arabist.

00:05:14.360 He's trying to unify all the Arabs into one group.

00:05:19.120 And so he was loved even, of course, in Lebanon.

00:05:21.600 And when he passed away, as often happens in the Middle East, people take to the streets and they scream and they protest and they lament and so on.

00:05:29.260 And as they were coming down, you know, in the hundreds, if not thousands down our street, they were screaming, you know, death to Jews.

00:05:38.240 And so I'm a five-year-old boy and I'm looking at my mother. 0.54

00:05:41.180 I'm saying, well, why are they screaming death to Jews?

00:05:44.240 And she's like, shh, be quiet. 0.97

00:05:45.660 Don't put your head up on the balcony, you know, stay quiet. 0.74

00:05:48.400 And so that was my first exposure to Jew hatred.

00:05:51.240 And this was in 1970.

00:05:52.680 We're still very far away from the Lebanese Civil War, which would only happen five years later.

00:05:58.100 Another time I was maybe eight or nine, so about a year or two before the start of the Civil War, the teacher asks everybody in the class to get up and tell the class what they want to be when they grow up.

00:06:10.920 I want to be a doctor.

00:06:12.100 I want to be a policeman.

00:06:13.280 I want to be a soccer player. 0.98

00:06:14.600 And a kid gets up who knows that I'm Jewish because we've been in the same class for many years, gets up and says, when I grow up, I want to be a Jew killer. 0.95

00:06:25.240 And everybody laughs and claps. 0.94

00:06:28.100 Now, these seem like banal little incidents, but it gives you a sense that within the DNA of these societies, it is perfectly banal and okay to, you know, exhibit Jew hatred. 0.94

00:06:41.420 Now, that doesn't mean that every second of every day you were being attacked for being Jewish, but you certainly, you know, knew that you were biding your time.

00:06:49.900 I'll tell one other quick story and then we could come back to it if you'd like.

00:06:52.760 One of my brothers was a Lebanese judo champion for many years in Lebanon, and this is before the Civil War.

00:07:01.480 And he was visited by some men at one point who explained to him that it was time for him to retire because, you know, we wouldn't want some unfortunate accident to happen to him.

00:07:11.480 Because, of course, it's shameful for a Jew to be winning all these championships in the Middle East. 1.00

00:07:19.140 Of course, he didn't want to accept this.

00:07:21.580 So he ended up moving to France to pursue his judo career and his studies.

00:07:26.580 And in 1976, he joined us in Montreal when we had emigrated.

00:07:31.160 That year, the Montreal Olympics were happening.

00:07:34.320 Well, the Olympics were happening in Montreal.

00:07:36.040 So he ended up representing Lebanon in the Olympics in judo.

00:07:41.260 So three years earlier, he suffered from the terminal disease of being Jewish. 1.00

00:07:45.760 And three years later, we will forgive the fact that you're Jewish as long as you wear the Lebanese flag. 0.97

00:07:51.740 So that's the world that I come from. 0.94

00:07:53.400 Why do you think there's this ridiculous Jew hatred in places like Lebanon, which was, I assume, majority Christian at the time you lived there, right? 0.91

00:08:02.140 Yes, it was very much Christian. 0.92

00:08:04.500 It was about two-thirds Christian.

00:08:07.040 And then within 40 years, it flipped to the exact opposite.

00:08:12.700 People think that it takes 500 years, 1,000 years for a—now, of course, admittedly, it's a small country, 3-4 million people.

00:08:20.740 But it didn't take 100, 200 years for the demographics to shift.

00:08:24.940 Within my lifetime, it has completely shifted to an Islamic-majority country.

00:08:30.480 Why?

00:08:31.200 Look, there are many reasons for Jew hatred. 0.82

00:08:34.880 But I offer a psychological explanation that transcends—I mean, there are Christian theological reasons why the Jews are hated. 0.57

00:08:45.700 There are, of course, endless Islamic doctrines for why you should hate the Jew.

00:08:50.100 But it transcends that even, right?

00:08:52.760 Because there are people who are not very wedded to their Islamic faith or their Christian faith that also will exhibit huge Jew hatred. 0.69

00:09:00.280 And so I offer the following psychological explanation.

00:09:02.920 There is a phenomenon in psychology called the self-serving bias, whereby when you're trying to attribute successes and failures in your life, you attribute successes internally and failures externally, right?

00:09:18.820 So I did well on the exam because I'm smart and I studied hard.

00:09:22.900 It's because of me. 0.98

00:09:23.820 On the other hand, if I did poorly on the exam, it's because Professor Saad is a bastard and he's unfair, right? 0.98

00:09:31.520 And so it's a very natural instinct for people to have because it protects their egos. 0.93

00:09:36.700 Now, imagine if I have an external culprit for all of my failures, whether they be individual-level failures or societal-level failures.

00:09:47.900 It's the Jew. 1.00

00:09:49.680 And that is literally the case.

00:09:51.600 If it today rains outside, it's the Jews who control the weather. 1.00

00:09:55.320 If my wife cheated on me, it's probably she learned about this by watching porn. 1.00

00:10:00.640 And who creates porn? 1.00

00:10:02.280 It's the Jews who create porn. 1.00

00:10:04.040 Your child just came out in Detroit as transgender. 1.00

00:10:07.080 Who created the transgender movement? 1.00

00:10:09.180 It's the Jews. 1.00

00:10:09.760 Now, it doesn't matter whether that's actually factually true or not. 0.75

00:10:13.960 We don't have to worry about facts, but we can very comfortably blame it on the Jews. 1.00

00:10:19.260 Now, the question then becomes, but why the Jews? 0.95

00:10:22.580 Why aren't all the external attributions put on Armenians or on some other group?

00:10:29.360 Well, it's because throughout history, there's been one recurring pattern to Jewish realities, 0.82

00:10:36.900 which is they're always an extremely small minority and a much larger majority,

00:10:43.580 and they always punch way above their weight class, right?

00:10:48.180 So they make up 0.2% of a society, but they make up 40% of all physicians and philosophers and music conductors and professors and so on.

00:11:00.280 So, therefore, as I'm navigating the world, if I were a non-Jew, and I fail at something,

00:11:08.000 and then there is a very clear reality that a very tiny minority seems to be overtly successful, 0.99

00:11:15.460 then it becomes a very easy thing for me to say, those effing Jews, they truly are diabolical. 1.00

00:11:21.220 So, I'll tell you what my opinion is about why Islamic, Islamic people, Islamists hate us. 0.99

00:11:28.820 And tell me what you think, because I am interested.

00:11:30.980 How can you love a group of people who was able to reclaim their ancestral homeland,

00:11:37.060 revive the Hebrew language, pray next to Temple Mount?

00:11:40.500 I'm not saying on top of, because we can pray on top of Temple Mount.

00:11:43.200 Next to Temple Mount.

00:11:44.220 And it's pretty much not giving legitimacy to the religion you call the religion of truth.

00:11:50.760 You know, they called the Jews the Din Batels, the cancelled religions.

00:11:54.300 And they called the Christians the Din Batels, the cancelled religions. 0.55

00:11:57.540 How can you be Din Hak, or the truth of religions, 1.00

00:12:02.540 if you have the OGs of monotheistic religions just thriving and reviving the Hebrew language?

00:12:08.160 And then they start making up these conspiracies and saying,

00:12:10.860 we did 9-11, and we killed JFK, and all these crazy conspiracies to support these claims.

00:12:16.220 But it's, to me, it binds completely to a theological perspective on their behalf.

00:12:23.620 Oh, I'm 100%.

00:12:25.020 Although, what you just said, while it is true that it, you know,

00:12:28.920 the fact that the return to the ancestral land, the revival of Hebrew as the language,

00:12:34.460 those things are true and can certainly explain the Jew hatred from 1948 onward. 0.65

00:12:39.980 But the Jew hatred has existed for 1400 years, well before what you just said.

00:12:45.700 But to your greater point, precisely because of the theological doctrines of Islam, right?

00:12:51.960 So, Muhammad starts off in Mecca, and he preaches a very nice message.

00:12:58.660 You have your religion, I have mine, no compulsory religion.

00:13:02.020 Wow, it's beautiful.

00:13:02.940 He's a hippie.

00:13:04.060 He's so kind.

00:13:04.680 Then he does Hijra, he goes immigration to Medina. 0.81

00:13:09.840 Like any good marketer, he tweaks his selling message,

00:13:14.600 and now his message becomes one that's a lot less tolerant.

00:13:19.420 And that appeals to a lot of men who say, yeah, okay, sign me up.

00:13:26.320 When he was in Mecca, he was trying to proselytize for many, many years,

00:13:30.400 and he was very unsuccessful.

00:13:31.620 He moves to Medina, he changes his message, and suddenly massive groups of people signing up into the club.

00:13:41.300 Well, all of the groups fell into line, except there was one group who said,

00:13:48.580 sorry, Muhammad, we're good.

00:13:51.260 No, not for us.

00:13:52.580 And so, that was a big affront, because there was this one group of folks who simply refused,

00:14:00.660 irrespective of what you threw at them, to convert and accept you as the final messenger of God, and blah, blah, blah.

00:14:07.480 And so, on his deathbed, he said, promise me that you will rid Arabia of the Jews. 1.00

00:14:15.240 And so, it's not as though it's very difficult to find the canonical reasons for why Islam hates the Jews.

00:14:23.340 I mean, what is incredible is that a thousand years ago, it was very difficult for people to access.

00:14:31.680 Most people were illiterate.

00:14:33.020 Most people can't read the Torah, can't read the Quran, can't read the Hadith.

00:14:37.000 We now have this thing called Google, where you can actually go and check these things for yourself.

00:14:43.220 Notwithstanding that they try to sanitize the stuff, you don't have to listen to God's side.

00:14:48.380 You can just go and check it for yourself.

00:14:51.700 Does Islam, you know, purports a message of love and tolerance, or it doesn't? 1.00

00:14:58.720 Well, I would argue that there is almost no data that you could think of that is as clear as the answer to that question,

00:15:06.180 and yet most people are bafflingly ignorant about the realities.

00:15:11.500 Can you give us a small explanation before we move on?

00:15:15.040 What is the definition of jihad?

00:15:16.820 And is jihad always violent, or could it be translated to more, you know, educational stuff or other things?

00:15:24.580 What is jihad?

00:15:25.180 What is the definition so my viewers can understand?

00:15:27.440 Yes, of course, if I were to answer it now as an Islamic apologist, this is the answer I would give.

00:15:34.420 There is a greater jihad, there is a lesser jihad.

00:15:39.100 You know, I'm putting on weight, and I have to stop eating french fries.

00:15:43.960 And so that's part of my internal struggle.

00:15:46.660 I'm calling a jihad against succumbing to eating too many french fries because I'm getting fat.

00:15:52.680 That's what they will tell you.

00:15:54.060 And that there's only one part of that is understood to be as, you know, the violent proselytizing of everybody else to conform to the glorious, true, noble faith, right?

00:16:06.720 But everybody, if they are in the least bit honest, understands that jihad is the goal of Islam. 1.00

00:16:16.440 Look, any religion, any ideology is made up of a set of doctrines.

00:16:22.740 In the same way that DNA has certain instructions to carry out life, right?

00:16:29.500 Or a computer program.

00:16:31.540 If you wish to solve this particular problem, here's the computer program.

00:16:35.660 You put an input, it gives you an output.

00:16:37.700 So if we want to understand what are the fundamental drivers of Islam, we don't have to guess.

00:16:46.300 We don't have to listen to your professor of Near East Studies at Columbia University.

00:16:51.200 We can go to the original text and study what it says.

00:16:54.380 Well, Islam technically is a religion of peace.

00:16:58.820 And let me explain what it means by that.

00:17:00.960 We are going to have peace when the entire globe, every inch of the world, is united under the unifying flag of Allah.

00:17:12.740 In which case, we will have peace because we will all be noble Muslims.

00:17:18.080 So in that sense, it is seeking peace, except there is a small asterisk in going to that peaceful end result. 0.97

00:17:26.620 We might have to kill a couple of hundred million people. 0.98

00:17:29.460 But actually, we were very kind because we did put the sword to your head and made you a very compelling offer. 1.00

00:17:36.680 Either convert or live as a dimmi or lose your head. 0.99

00:17:42.080 So it's not as though we didn't give you many alluring options.

00:17:45.420 And there is 1400 years of history of that, right?

00:17:50.460 Israel is a colonizer, which of course it isn't. 0.89

00:17:53.880 But imagine Islamic people are telling Israel that it's a colonizer when Islam is the greatest colonizer in the history of recorded world, right? 1.00

00:18:08.460 There are 56 current countries that are part of the OIC, Organization of Islamic Cooperation.

00:18:16.220 These 56 countries that constitute a very large territory of the world, that constitutes one-fourth of humanity, right?

00:18:25.280 Each of those countries, once upon a time, had 0% Islam.

00:18:33.000 Then you closed your eyes, you opened your eyes, and depending on which country, it's 99.9% Islamic.

00:18:41.340 It's 100% Islamic.

00:18:43.880 How did that happen?

00:18:45.120 Is it always because we threw around sweets and we just engage in peaceful dialogue?

00:18:50.340 No.

00:18:51.100 And so it'll be well worth it for people not to just trust what I say.

00:18:56.740 Go do your homework and come to your own conclusions.

00:18:59.280 What would you say to people, and I talk to a lot of people about this, who tell me,

00:19:03.240 listen, Islam needs to take back lands that they used to own, but now they're owned by Christians who took it back, 0.98

00:19:09.620 or Jews who took it back.

00:19:12.100 What would you tell to people who say they're not planning to do this in the United States?

00:19:15.360 They're not planning to do this in Australia?

00:19:17.240 You know, these lands were never conquered by Muslims.

00:19:19.940 Therefore, they're not Islamic for eternity, just like they claim about Israel and Al-Andalus. 0.99

00:19:25.280 What would you tell to these people?

00:19:27.200 Well, I'm glad you mentioned Al-Andalus here because that's a typical example I use to explain the concept of Dar al-Harab and Dar al-Islam, right?

00:19:37.880 Dar is like the salon, okay?

00:19:41.680 So there is the house of Islam, and then there's the house of war. 0.95

00:19:48.100 Any land that is currently Islamic is under the dominion of the house of Islam. 1.00

00:19:54.260 Any land that is not under the dominion of Islam is literally, canonically, under the house of war. 0.94

00:20:02.640 Now, that could come in one of two forms.

00:20:04.560 It could come in the form of a country that we've never conquered, Australia, but I'll show you how they actually even play games there.

00:20:15.000 Or places that were under our dominion, which we have since lost, which then becomes a theological injury, and we have to gain it back.

00:20:26.580 So, yes, Israel might have been the ancestral land of the Jews, but for a very long time, it was no longer under Jewish dominion.

00:20:37.100 And as a matter of fact, there were, of course, periods where it was Islamic rulers that ruled that land.

00:20:42.060 Therefore, theologically, when they say it is ours, according to their theological text, that's perfectly true. 0.97

00:20:50.100 Andalusia, which is in current Spain, was conquered by the Moors et al, and therefore, it belongs to them. 1.00

00:20:59.140 Now, Australia and United States, technically, you may think they haven't been conquered by Islam, but they always come up with ways to demonstrate how they are the true original indigenous people of that land. 0.91

00:21:17.140 So, for example, did you know that California, California, is caliph, caliph, right?

00:21:26.620 It's the caliphate. 0.98

00:21:28.080 So, is that a surprise?

00:21:29.400 That proves to you that the word California comes from the Arabic caliph.

00:21:33.720 It looks as though I'm joking, but that's literally a position that's been taken.

00:21:38.680 Or, you know, in 1632, I'm making up the exact date.

00:21:43.420 I don't know.

00:21:44.160 It's hypothetical.

00:21:45.000 All good.

00:21:45.680 There was Sulaim, Muhammad, Ahmad al-Kbir, who came on a slave ship to Boston.

00:21:53.480 So, the original indigenous people prior to Americans, prior to, you know, the founding fathers, were actually Islamic.

00:22:05.060 So, it is not out of place to really say that United States was really founded by Muslims.

00:22:13.320 So, while we technically never really owned the United States, it really is within our dominion.

00:22:21.040 Right now, today, the Muslim Brotherhood and CARE and so on in the United States make these types of arguments.

00:22:27.900 So, it is absolutely insane.

00:22:30.980 And if people don't wake up, it won't be 56 countries in the OIC.

00:22:35.620 It'll be a lot bigger number than 56.

00:22:37.740 Oh, my God.

00:22:38.560 Which is leading me to my next question.

00:22:40.660 You have your – have you finished the book Suicidal Empathy, correct?

00:22:44.460 I did.

00:22:45.120 I finished it.

00:22:46.180 It's now with the publisher and people are extremely excited by it, but not as excited I am to have it in their hands.

00:22:54.460 So, it should be a good one.

00:22:55.820 I'll get it for myself as well, of course.

00:22:57.960 Please tell me more about this book.

00:22:59.860 What was the idea behind this book and how does it – how do we implement it on today's reality?

00:23:04.640 Yes, thank you for that question.

00:23:07.420 So, it really is a slightly longer story.

00:23:11.260 So, let me backtrack and then I'll come to Suicidal Empathy.

00:23:14.200 So, my original training as an academic, as a scientist, was in applying evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology to study human behavior.

00:23:25.440 Right?

00:23:25.600 What are the biological underpinnings that make us do the things that we do?

00:23:29.220 How do our hormones affect our economic behavior? 0.70

00:23:32.280 How does the menstrual cycle of women affect their food behavior? 1.00

00:23:36.280 Okay?

00:23:36.600 And so, I was marrying biology, psychology in specific behavioral fields.

00:23:43.420 And very quickly in my academic career, I started noticing that many of my social sciences colleagues were very hostile to what I was trying to do because they were arguing that, no, no, no.

00:23:57.400 Biology and evolutionary theory applies to the dog.

00:24:01.140 It applies to the giraffe.

00:24:02.560 It applies to the mosquito.

00:24:04.220 But surely, Professor Saad, you don't think that consumers are biological beings.

00:24:09.020 Surely not.

00:24:09.820 We are cultural beings.

00:24:11.260 We transcend our biology.

00:24:12.860 Biology matters for your dog, Fido. 1.00

00:24:14.980 It doesn't apply to higher order beings like us.

00:24:18.260 Or, if we can see that evolution matters, it stops at the neck, meaning that it might explain why we have opposable thumbs.

00:24:28.220 It might explain why your lungs are shaped the way that they are.

00:24:31.740 But surely, you can't use evolutionary theory to explain the human mind, Professor Saad.

00:24:37.640 Well, of course you can, right?

00:24:38.780 The human mind didn't come out of magic, right?

00:24:42.000 It wasn't an abracadabra.

00:24:43.380 So, that was my first exposure to how perfectly reasonable and educated people could be parasitized by bad ideas.

00:24:53.580 How is it that people could be hijacked by ideology when they're called professor and doctor?

00:25:00.000 So, that was my first exposure.

00:25:02.980 And over the next 30 years, I saw the attack, the war on reason that was happening on university campuses.

00:25:11.480 So, that led to my writing, my 2020 book called The Parasitic Mind, where I was arguing that in the same way that many animals, including humans, could be parasitized by actual brain worms, right?

00:25:26.760 So, for example, a wood cricket, an actual insect, the wood cricket, it detests water.

00:25:32.500 But when it is parasitized by a hair worm, the hair worm needs the wood cricket to jump into water to commit suicide because it needs to complete its reproductive cycle in water.

00:25:44.960 So, once that poor wood cricket is parasitized, it is hijacked.

00:25:50.580 Now, it is the hair worm that is controlling its behavior all the way to the point of suicide.

00:25:57.660 So, you'll see how it comes to suicidal empathy.

00:26:00.180 So, then I argued in The Parasitic Mind that human brains could not only be parasitized by physical brain worms, they could be parasitized by ideological brain worms.

00:26:11.840 And so, I describe all those idea pathogens, and then I offer a mind vaccine to protect yourself against the hijacking of your capacity to think.

00:26:22.400 So, parasitic mind explained what happens to our cognitive system when it is parasitized.

00:26:28.900 But we are also a feeling animal.

00:26:32.060 We are both a thinking and a feeling animal.

00:26:34.780 So, if I want to fully hijack your ability to think, I also have to hijack your emotional system, hence my forthcoming book, Suicidal Empathy.

00:26:47.000 And so, here, let me now explain what Suicidal Empathy is.

00:26:49.740 Please.

00:26:51.040 So, Empathy, already there's been many articles that have been written about my forthcoming book, even though the people haven't read it,

00:27:00.500 because only one other person has read it, and that's my editor at the publisher.

00:27:06.160 So, they couldn't have read it.

00:27:07.200 I'm not the type of guy who just shares my book with a million people to read and give feedback.

00:27:12.580 So, I'm very, very possessive and territorial and careful.

00:27:15.960 So, they couldn't have read the book, but yet they're already writing articles saying, 0.86

00:27:19.980 look at the evil, diabolical Jew who is behind Elon Musk, because Elon Musk is a fan, 1.00

00:27:28.040 who often will talk about these concepts that I discuss. 0.98

00:27:32.120 And they say, the evil, demonic Jew is trying to create a dark world where empathy no longer applies, 1.00

00:27:41.260 which is, of course, couldn't be any more incorrect. 0.90

00:27:43.880 I'm the first to say, as an evolutionary psychologist, that empathy is an evolved capacity.

00:27:51.640 It's an adaptive trait.

00:27:52.940 It is part of the human condition to be empathetic, because we are a social species.

00:27:58.740 So, for you and I to have a meaningful conversation, I have to put myself in your mind.

00:28:05.560 That's called theory of mind.

00:28:07.160 For example, autistic children, the way we diagnose them as being autistic, there is no blood test you can give

00:28:13.960 to know that your child is autistic.

00:28:16.700 You usually give them a theory of mind test, which they fail, meaning that they don't have cognitive empathy

00:28:23.140 as a symptom of their autism, okay?

00:28:26.520 So, it is perfectly laudable and beautiful to be empathetic.

00:28:31.220 But 2,000 plus years ago, Aristotle explained to us that all good things in moderation, right?

00:28:38.260 Life is about finding the sweet spot.

00:28:41.060 Too little of something is not good.

00:28:43.640 Too much of something is not good.

00:28:45.600 And for most phenomena, the optimal is somewhere in the middle, right?

00:28:50.720 So, empathy is fine as long as it is applied in the right amount, in the right situation, to the right targets.

00:28:59.680 If that breaks down, you end up with suicidal empathy.

00:29:03.880 And that's exactly what my next book is about.

00:29:06.040 It looks at a bunch of domestic policies and foreign policies, and it argues that they all stem from the same singular cause, suicidal empathy.

00:29:17.060 Speaking of empathy, and I speak about this all the time, the reason why I think the Israelis, the Jews,

00:29:25.220 why we're losing the propaganda war is because we're not empathetic enough.

00:29:30.280 We think that if we show reasoning and logical facts to people around the world, that will make them align with our point of view.

00:29:38.040 On the other side, we have the Palestinians and the Arabs and the Muslims of the world, who all they show to the world, all they show is dead children and dead women and dead elderly and blown up limbs and all these things. 1.00

00:29:54.160 And people, if they have to choose, and I've read this in a book of Mehdi Hassan, saying, if you present a logical argument, and nine out of the ten things that you will present to me are factual,

00:30:08.320 and then I will debate you and I'll present mostly emotional aspects, I'll beat you every single time.

00:30:14.040 Because people don't reason with logic, they reason with emotion.

00:30:18.800 And that's why I think the Israelis and the Jews are not so good at explaining to the world what's actually happening, because we're not showing the empathetic side. 1.00

00:30:26.360 I don't know if that's exactly what your book is about, but it just touches it a little bit, in my opinion.

00:30:30.920 I mean, I'm not using empathy in the way that you're using the term, but the gist of your argument is exactly right.

00:30:38.700 I recently had the former director of the Mossad on my show.

00:30:44.880 Oh, wow.

00:30:45.780 Yeah, and further supposedly proving that I am the real true head of the Mossad, as everybody on the internet says.

00:30:54.360 Apparently, for the past 32 years, I've been faking pretending to be a professor.

00:31:00.560 That's just so that all of the gullible people can actually think that I'm a professor.

00:31:05.300 But my real, real job is that I am orchestrating the Mossad from my home in Montreal. 1.00

00:31:12.420 That's the kind of stupidity of people. 0.99

00:31:14.360 But anyways, I was speaking to Yossi Cohen, and I told him, you know, the Israelis are, to your point, the Israelis are fantastic with their commandos and the air force and the intelligence and the Mossad. 1.00

00:31:29.660 But when it comes to winning in the propaganda war, boy, do you suck, right?

00:31:35.560 So to your point, and that, by the way, I think I dare say that I understand it a lot better than even most Israelis who live in the Middle East, because they're not as well versed in Arabic culture as I am, right? 0.97

00:31:53.720 So, and this, by the way, is something that I talk about in Suicidal Empathy, so I might be able to join some of its content with what you were saying.

00:32:02.360 So I introduced the term in Suicidal Empathy called cultural theory of mind.

00:32:08.800 So theory of mind is me being able to put myself in your mind in order to be able to have a good exchange.

00:32:16.860 Cultural theory of mind, I argue, is the same phenomenon, but at the cultural level, meaning, so I argue that the West lacks cultural theory of mind, because when they exhibit kindness, compassion, tolerance, empathy towards folks that come from those regions,

00:32:39.900 they think, because they think because they lack cultural theory of mind, that the recipient of that kindness and empathy will say, thank you, Habibi, I really appreciate it, let me now reciprocate.

00:32:53.580 No, they read it as compassion, weakness, empathy, weakness, kindness, weakness, magnanimity, weakness.

00:33:04.980 So that's why it's, we're talking in parallel to each other, because every act that I do, you are interpreting it in a completely different way.

00:33:15.500 And I hate to say it, I think in many instances, the Israelis suffer from the exact same lack of cultural theory of mind, right? 1.00

00:33:23.860 If we say it, if we only do the life-saving surgery on Sinwar and save him, I mean, he was going to die a horrible death. 0.99

00:33:35.820 I now come in, the dirty Jew, neurosurgeon, and I save you. 1.00

00:33:42.560 Any sense of humanity would say, if nothing else, I have now bought your reciprocal kindness, your reciprocal appreciation forevermore, right? 0.99

00:33:56.940 Many people who hated the Jews meet Jews, go to dinner with them and say, oh my God, I was always taught that Jews are monsters, but now I know better. 1.00

00:34:05.200 But Sinwar didn't do that auto-correction, right? 1.00

00:34:09.180 And when he was saved, he said, perfect, I will now repay you by killing more of you. 0.99

00:34:16.220 That's because lack of cultural theory of mind. 0.99

00:34:19.040 So all this to say, your intuition is exactly right, Sahar.

00:34:23.820 If you would be the prime minister of the United States or of Canada or of the United Kingdom or friends and all these countries that are slowly importing more Islamists from different countries 1.00

00:34:34.100 and just allowing it to happen, what would you have done to change the situation that's currently going on as a leader?

00:34:42.020 Well, I would certainly have never allowed the immigration patterns to be in the form that they took, right? 0.98

00:34:49.240 I despise having to always do this preface, but I will do it for the imbeciles who might not otherwise understand. 0.99

00:34:57.100 Most people of any group are perfectly lovely. 0.99

00:35:01.340 There are really nice Jews and there are pedophile Jews. 1.00

00:35:04.820 There are really nice Muslims. 1.00

00:35:06.440 There are really mean Muslims. 0.88

00:35:08.800 There are nice atheists. 0.99

00:35:10.220 There are mean atheists. 0.98

00:35:11.440 But we're not talking about individuals. 0.93

00:35:13.940 I know more.

00:35:15.260 I receive thousands of fan letters from Muslims, actual Muslims who hear everything I say and they love me.

00:35:24.080 So this is not an attack on individual Muslims. 0.95

00:35:27.380 Your friend Ahmed, who is gay and is married to a Jewish man and eats pork, is not the representation of true Islam, right? 1.00

00:35:36.440 Islam is a set of doctrines. 0.95

00:35:38.620 Therefore, we can look at history and say when Islam comes into a new society, a society that had heretofore not been under Islamic majority,

00:35:49.680 one of three things can happen, as I've explained many, many times before.

00:35:54.880 Before I do that, let me analogize.

00:35:57.080 When you go on a diet, you take a certain set of actions.

00:36:01.240 So you eat less, you exercise more, and at the end of the day, your weight, if that's the metric that you're following,

00:36:09.740 your weight can only have one of three things happen to it.

00:36:13.460 Your weight could either have gone up that day, it could have stayed exactly the same, or it could have gone down.

00:36:21.920 Yes?

00:36:22.540 There is no other possibility.

00:36:24.300 Right.

00:36:25.020 So let's apply this analogy to Islam.

00:36:27.960 If more Islam comes into a society, only one of three things can happen. 1.00

00:36:33.640 There could be more love towards the Jews, there could be no change of love towards the Jews, or there could be a lot less love to the Jews.

00:36:44.420 So when we let in millions and millions of people in Sweden, in France, in Denmark, in Italy, in Spain, in Britain, in Canada,

00:36:57.440 did we need fancy Professor Gadsad to explain to us what would likely happen with Jew hatred?

00:37:06.340 Because now all the politicians are going, I don't understand where this Jew hatred is coming from.

00:37:13.380 What could explain it?

00:37:14.860 What could explain if I eat French fries six hours a day, and I never move from my couch?

00:37:22.740 So it's the exact same principle.

00:37:31.720 You don't need to be very educated or fancy to know that if you have people that come to your society

00:37:38.640 that have a set of values, that some of them are beautiful, the hospitality of Arabic culture is gorgeous,

00:37:48.220 the tight bonds that form in friendships in Arabic society is gorgeous.

00:37:54.260 That's why when people ask me, you know, what are you?

00:37:56.340 My first answer is, I say, I'm Lebanese.

00:37:58.260 Because, yes, of course, I'm Jewish, but also my ethnicity, my speaking is Arabic.

00:38:05.840 When I do Laish Ya Allah, I just did. 1.00

00:38:08.100 That's not a Jewish thing. 0.96

00:38:09.240 That's an Arabic thing.

00:38:10.440 So there are many beautiful traits that come with the, you know, Muslim societies and Arabic

00:38:17.280 cultures, but there are some really problematic ones.

00:38:19.960 So if you're going to let in millions of people, then you have to ask yourself, are those people

00:38:25.640 likely to assimilate within the foundational values of the West?

00:38:30.780 Yes or no?

00:38:31.640 There are no other possibilities.

00:38:33.200 And now the politicians are finding out that, oops, I guess it was a wrong parasitic idea

00:38:40.360 to think that all immigrants are equally likely to assimilate.

00:38:44.620 But here's the problem, Sahar.

00:38:47.920 We always say that the first step to recognizing you have a problem, the first step is to recognize

00:38:53.960 that you have a problem.

00:38:55.200 Yes, it is true.

00:38:56.380 I am alcoholic.

00:38:57.760 But of course, most people will deny that they are alcoholic.

00:39:01.300 No, I don't have a problem with alcoholism.

00:39:03.760 So the problem with the West is that while it sees the problem, it is absolutely hell-bent

00:39:11.540 on not instituting a single autocorrective measure to fix the problem.

00:39:17.560 This is why I have grown increasingly pessimistic about the capacity of the West to save itself.

00:39:24.440 Because it would be one thing if you saw huge cataclysmic changes that are being implemented

00:39:30.880 I see the exact opposite, the doubling down of the suicidal empathy.

00:39:36.060 So I think we're in for a very rough future ride.

00:39:39.980 How deep in do you think we are inside this problem?

00:39:43.200 Do you think there's anything we can do right now?

00:39:44.860 Or do you think we've passed the point of return?

00:39:47.440 No.

00:39:47.820 I mean, and I'm not trying to be falsely optimistic. 0.92

00:39:51.360 I think that literally the problem could be solved by next Tuesday, but it would take a testicular

00:40:01.620 fortitude that no Western leader has.

00:40:04.840 Even someone as much of an agent of change as a once in a multiple generation leader like

00:40:13.180 Donald Trump hasn't done nearly enough as what you should have done, right?

00:40:19.460 The fact that Dearborn, Michigan exists in its current form tells you that there is a major

00:40:27.520 problem.

00:40:28.400 The fact that Minneapolis exists in its current form.

00:40:31.980 There are little towns in Maine, right?

00:40:35.240 Maine is a three, four hundred year settlements, villages of fishermen named John Smith and Joe

00:40:45.980 O'Reilly, you walk in them now in a small little village.

00:40:51.820 It's Mogadishu.

00:40:54.000 How is that possible?

00:40:56.000 So and again, does that mean that there aren't tons of beautiful, kind Somali people?

00:41:02.460 Of course there are.

00:41:03.500 But does it mean, though, that the fundamental organizing values of Somali culture are perfectly

00:41:13.080 incongruent with those of the United States?

00:41:15.880 Nothing could be clearer.

00:41:18.880 What makes the liberals and the left wingers of the world, which are at the opposite side

00:41:25.740 of the spectrum, the opposite side of the spectrum, I mean, on, you know, on ways of

00:41:29.960 thinking, on on belief systems, what makes them embrace the Islamic culture?

00:41:36.440 America and, you know, the people who come from from countries who have completely different 0.99

00:41:41.720 values, what makes them accept them if they're here?

00:41:45.420 And I mean, I'm trying to demonstrate exactly like they're two separate extremes, yet they're

00:41:50.500 so they resemble one another in a way that they completely forget that the other side

00:41:57.820 would kill them in a second if they would have a chance.

00:42:00.080 What makes them blind to this? 1.00

00:42:01.440 Is it their kindness?

00:42:02.640 Is it their weakness? 0.96

00:42:03.860 Is it their white guilt? 0.64

00:42:05.180 What is it exactly?

00:42:06.360 It's all those things and more.

00:42:07.980 So I'll give a couple of answers.

00:42:10.280 First answer, not as much related to my mechanisms of parasitic ideas of suicidal empathy, is one

00:42:17.780 of pragmatism.

00:42:19.340 The left, and certainly the extreme left, but the left in general and the socialists and

00:42:25.300 the communists despise the West for their own reasons, right? 0.90

00:42:29.700 The West is evil. 0.55

00:42:31.120 The West engages in greedy capitalism. 1.00

00:42:34.120 The West is selfish and brutish. 0.97

00:42:36.800 Wouldn't it be much more beautiful if they weren't mean billionaires? 0.91

00:42:41.120 Why does my good friend Elon Musk have more money in a day than most people will have in

00:42:47.340 their entire life?

00:42:48.220 That's not nice.

00:42:49.160 That's not kind.

00:42:50.400 Wouldn't it be nicer if we taxed him at 100% so it could be shared with everybody?

00:42:55.100 It's a beautiful feeling.

00:42:56.540 It's almost making me cry now to say it.

00:42:59.520 It's so kind.

00:43:00.360 It's so loving.

00:43:01.500 So let's eradicate the West because of our own ideological commitments, which are socialism 0.63

00:43:07.920 and communism and the utopia that comes with that. 0.97

00:43:11.160 Now you've got Islam that also hates the West for its own reasons. 1.00

00:43:16.620 And so let's get into bed together because at the very least we share a common disdain 0.87

00:43:22.920 and hatred of the West.

00:43:24.580 That's what's called the red-green alliance, right?

00:43:27.180 And so there is that pragmatic reason.

00:43:29.840 And to your point, of course, the people with the blue hair who studied socialism at Colombia

00:43:35.600 don't know that they're going to be killed next once the Islamists... 1.00

00:43:40.220 By the way, I don't like to say Islamists because that makes it sound as though there 1.00

00:43:44.300 is something separate.

00:43:45.680 There is Islam and there is Islamism.

00:43:47.560 There is no such thing.

00:43:48.840 There is only Islam. 1.00

00:43:50.320 Islamism is a predominant part of Islam.

00:43:53.820 90% of Islam is political Islam.

00:43:56.600 A very small percentage is the spiritual part.

00:43:59.080 So there is no Islamism in Islam. 0.93

00:44:01.360 It's just Islam. 0.99

00:44:02.160 I look at Islamism as spreading Islam in a violent manner. 1.00

00:44:04.980 Whether it's preaching about it, whether it's spreading it by the sword, whether it's

00:44:09.240 committing jihad, when I say Islamism, that's what I mean. 1.00

00:44:13.040 And that's what I see other people say when they talk about Islamism.

00:44:16.760 What do you refer to them as?

00:44:19.260 No, because I would slightly correct you because certainly the Muslim Brotherhood, but not only

00:44:26.440 the Muslim Brotherhood, have recognized that they would never be successful if they tried 0.85

00:44:32.340 to implement their goal using your metric of violence, right?

00:44:37.020 That's why, and I've said this many times on many high-profile shows, the Muslim Brotherhood 0.97

00:44:46.000 has said that we are going to conquer the West through three means, none of which involve

00:44:52.800 your violence.

00:44:53.400 And surely you're not going to think that the Muslim Brotherhood are not Islamists. 1.00

00:44:56.780 They said, we're going to conquer the West through the womb of our women, right? 0.99

00:45:01.640 Children.

00:45:02.880 Right.

00:45:03.500 We produce 5.2.

00:45:06.380 You're too lazy and you produce 1.2.

00:45:09.900 If we put it into the fertility calculation, inshallah, in 70 years, we flip you all. 0.96

00:45:15.760 And they tell you this.

00:45:16.800 I could show you a million clips where they say, here, you have the watches, but we have

00:45:22.360 all the time in the world, as the Taliban used to say to the U.S. soldiers, right?

00:45:26.540 So you're playing a long game.

00:45:28.640 It's not just tomorrow, right?

00:45:30.200 So that's not through violence.

00:45:31.620 Number two, we will conquer you through hijra, through immigration. 1.00

00:45:36.200 Well, how beautiful is it when we don't even have to worry about you putting any walls because

00:45:42.620 you're going to say, open door, yalla, millions come in, no problem.

00:45:47.700 Angela Merkel, to your point.

00:45:49.460 I feel guilty because my grandparents were Nazis and were really mean people.

00:45:54.800 Let me now reverse that problem and expitiate my guilt by letting in millions of people to

00:46:00.620 demonstrate that I'm the exact opposite of my grandparents who were really mean and didn't

00:46:05.380 like people.

00:46:06.220 I'm going to let in the noble people from Syria and Waziristan.

00:46:10.180 They're going to contribute greatly to German society.

00:46:13.940 Of course, there's a small problem, though.

00:46:15.980 When I let in tons of Syrians and Iraqis and Yemeni and Afghans into German, then it becomes 0.56

00:46:23.940 impossible for there to be German Jews in Germany.

00:46:27.840 So I have replicated what my grandparents did.

00:46:30.780 My grandparents took the Jews straight to the oven.

00:46:34.420 I am much kinder. 0.99

00:46:36.040 It will take it longer to now eradicate all the Jews from Germany. 1.00

00:46:40.180 But it is really important to show that I'm not bigoted by letting in millions of people 0.95

00:46:44.960 into my country.

00:46:46.260 So number one, demography, fertility, womb of our women. 0.99

00:46:51.740 Number two, hijrah. 0.93

00:46:53.320 Number three, again, not violent. 0.98

00:46:55.720 We will use your miserable freedoms against you. 0.88

00:47:00.000 That's exactly what they do, right? 0.99

00:47:01.940 You arrest someone who is Muslim for fraud, you know, social security fraud. 1.00

00:47:08.660 But why, Allah, why is Islamophobic?

00:47:11.860 Well, no, it's not because I'm Islamophobic. 0.98

00:47:14.140 It's because you raped the girl that I arrested you, Muhammad, right? 1.00

00:47:18.840 So they are using the Achilles heel of the West, which is individual rights, civil rights, 0.90

00:47:27.920 dignity for all.

00:47:30.180 And by the way, now I can't have these conversations in Arabic with those folks because they usually 1.00

00:47:37.340 recognize me and they won't tell me the truth.

00:47:39.600 But many years ago, when I wasn't as known and where they could speak to me in Arabic,

00:47:46.920 unsure of who I am or what my religion is, they would all say all those things to me, right?

00:47:53.920 So, for example, in Montreal, in Canada, and actually I discussed this in Suicide Empathy,

00:48:00.500 we have a health care card, right?

00:48:04.440 It's free health care.

00:48:06.140 But by free health care, it means that you steal several hundred thousand dollars of my

00:48:11.100 income to give me free health care, which I have to wait six months to go see a doctor.

00:48:16.400 But it's free.

00:48:17.200 Just like, for example, if you don't count the fact that I paid $50,000 for my car, it

00:48:25.080 was actually free.

00:48:26.600 And if you don't count that when I went to the steakhouse, I paid $150 for my steak, it

00:48:33.200 was free steak.

00:48:34.140 So in Canada, we have free steaks if you don't count the fact that we pay for it.

00:48:38.780 So it's the same thing with health care.

00:48:40.220 It's completely free other than the fact that you take 70 percent of my income.

00:48:44.260 But it is free health care.

00:48:45.460 Okay, so now why am I saying this?

00:48:47.480 Because we used to have our health card, when we go to the hospital, we just give our card

00:48:55.380 and we have the thing and you're done, right?

00:48:57.940 That's how it's free.

00:49:01.140 Well, that card didn't have your photo on it.

00:49:05.500 Okay?

00:49:05.640 So therefore, when Uncle Ahmed from Lebanon, from Baalbek, who has never set foot in Canada,

00:49:14.400 wanted to have heart surgery, and he's not Canadian, he could take his nephew's card and 0.57

00:49:21.560 then turn it.

00:49:22.620 But we're too kind in Canada to check if the actual owner of that card, who is a Canadian

00:49:29.740 citizen, is different from the guy who's never set foot in Canada.

00:49:34.380 So they used to joke with me in Arabic that the entire country of Lebanon received free

00:49:40.740 health care from Canada.

00:49:42.180 And then eventually Canadians woke up and said, oops, I guess there's been, you know, many

00:49:47.660 billions of dollars of fraud.

00:49:49.540 And so now we're going to put a photo card, photo, so that we can establish.

00:49:54.780 But it only took a few, you know, billions of dollars of waste.

00:49:58.660 But who cares?

00:49:59.480 It's the taxpayer will pay it anyway.

00:50:01.600 So I have a unique access to the mindset of those folks, because I am of those folks.

00:50:14.220 I grew up with those folks.

00:50:16.020 I was educated with those folks.

00:50:17.780 I speak that language, both the literal language and the cultural theory of mind language.

00:50:23.800 So they used to all tell me, the West is a woman to be mounted.

00:50:31.460 And in Arabic, there's a very spicy way of saying that, right? 0.87

00:50:36.820 Because the West is a woman waiting to be effed, right? 1.00

00:50:42.560 It's weak, right?

00:50:45.400 Empathy, kindness, compassion, those are feminine traits of kindness and tolerance. 0.84

00:50:52.900 But as I explain also in Suicidal Empathy, let me give you a five-sentence synopsis of history.

00:51:01.340 You ready?

00:51:02.700 There is a river and there is a tribe on one side of the river and there is another tribe

00:51:09.680 on the other side of the river.

00:51:11.580 The men on each side of the river are looking at the resources of the tribes on the other

00:51:18.960 side and saying, I really want to get that.

00:51:22.080 There are some really pretty girls that I would like to bring into my side. 1.00

00:51:27.120 There is some really good animal protein there that we don't have.

00:51:31.780 Whatever the resource is, I'm going to go and take it.

00:51:35.860 No, wait a minute.

00:51:36.960 I better not because on the other side, there are men who are equally violent, equally aggressive,

00:51:46.020 and equally territorial that are not going to take it too well if you try to do this to us.

00:51:53.860 Now, sometimes these two tribes look at each other and say, I better not do anything. 0.96

00:51:59.380 And other times they say, you know what?

00:52:01.900 I think I could take those guys on the other side.

00:52:04.460 And then we go to war.

00:52:06.560 I just explained the entire history of humanity with this river metaphor, right?

00:52:15.360 Well, imagine if the two sides of the river are now.

00:52:20.820 On the one side is beautiful, noble, peaceful Islam.

00:52:24.920 On the other side is perfectly, completely pastrated men called Western man. 0.99

00:52:34.440 No testicles, no spine, completely ideologically parasitized by every single non-survival reflex 0.93

00:52:44.820 that is imaginable. 0.51

00:52:46.900 It's not going to end well.

00:52:48.760 So can it still be flipped?

00:52:51.100 Yes.

00:52:51.440 Do I see any evidence of it being flipped?

00:52:54.500 No.

00:52:56.060 You talked about the term Islamophobia three minutes ago, four minutes ago,

00:53:01.160 and you said that this is a tool being used by the Muslim Brotherhood.

00:53:05.320 What do you mean by that?

00:53:06.500 Because we all know that phobia means irrational fear.

00:53:09.400 If I fear the lights in my room, that's a phobia.

00:53:11.600 If I fear my water bottle right here, that's a phobia because it's an irrational fear.

00:53:16.440 It's got no grounds to it.

00:53:19.260 Why do they use the term Islamophobia?

00:53:21.880 And does this term actually exist?

00:53:25.740 Right.

00:53:26.080 Because they are exactly the opposite of what you said earlier about Israel not being able

00:53:31.960 to win the propaganda war.

00:53:33.720 They are super smart. 1.00

00:53:35.520 The Israelis are super dumb. 1.00

00:53:37.100 I'm sorry to say, right? 1.00

00:53:39.200 Because the...

00:53:41.100 And of course, I don't literally mean it in every...

00:53:43.260 Of course you don't.

00:53:43.780 People don't understand your sarcasm, Guy.

00:53:45.360 Don't worry.

00:53:45.800 Okay, good.

00:53:46.380 Okay, good.

00:53:47.120 But by the way, you're overestimating how intelligent people are.

00:53:53.600 Because just yesterday, I put out a clip where I went on and I said, oh, I just heard of the

00:54:02.680 Afghan terror attack where he shot two people.

00:54:06.040 And I'm devastated by the fact that this is going to result in an increase in Islamophobia.

00:54:11.420 Now, most people understood that I was being sarcastic, but many people started sending

00:54:16.760 me death threats not knowing that I was being sarcastic. 1.00

00:54:19.560 So don't overestimate people's stupidity. 1.00

00:54:22.080 But in any case, Islamophobia is the brilliant understanding of those folks of where the weakness 1.00

00:54:34.180 points of the West is, right?

00:54:36.680 Imagine if I've been able to convince Western people that the greatest moral transgression,

00:54:46.220 the greatest moral, ethical, and legal transgression that you could commit.

00:54:52.700 Oh, is it pedophilia?

00:54:55.120 No.

00:54:56.200 Is it murder?

00:54:57.620 No.

00:54:58.540 Is it rape of an adult woman? 0.99

00:55:01.680 No. 0.98

00:55:02.200 There is nothing worse than being called bigoted, transphobic, racist, sexist. 0.97

00:55:11.280 But amongst those, there is nothing worse than being hateful towards Islam. 0.95

00:55:19.440 So therefore, I have now rendered you impotent to invoke your survival instinct, right? 0.99

00:55:26.500 Because I get people who write to me and say, but I keep getting sexually harassed by Muslim 0.98

00:55:33.680 men, Dr. Saad. 0.90

00:55:35.380 But I know that it's wrong of me to think that they're dangerous.

00:55:40.500 Really?

00:55:41.280 So you're a woman, you're walking on the street, your basal instinct of being fearful, 0.97

00:55:49.760 of being raped is coming from those men.

00:55:53.900 There is a statistical regularity to what you're facing. 0.62

00:55:57.620 But you're writing to me and saying, Dr. Saad, am I a bad person for thinking that they're

00:56:05.740 dangerous?

00:56:06.940 Well, by the way, I even have a worse story than that for you.

00:56:10.500 Please. 0.98

00:56:14.340 Norwegian man is sodomized by a Somali. 1.00

00:56:19.520 He's raped. 1.00

00:56:20.680 A man is raped by another man. 0.77

00:56:23.800 The Somali is put for a very short sentence, two, three years in prison because the Norwegians 1.00

00:56:32.180 are very kind.

00:56:33.100 They don't believe they don't believe in the penal system and criminal thing because he probably

00:56:39.140 had a tough childhood.

00:56:40.700 That's why he ended up sodomizing the other guy.

00:56:43.240 So you have to be understanding.

00:56:44.240 After he finished his prison sentence, he was going to be deported back to Mogadishu.

00:56:52.320 And the guy whom he had raped felt incredibly bad, incredibly guilty because now Ahmed, who 1.00

00:57:04.240 raped him in his ass, is not going to be able to maximally flourish and live a full life 1.00

00:57:11.420 in Mogadishu. 1.00

00:57:12.060 He's not going to be able to be fully self-actualized the way Abraham Maslow told us to be.

00:57:24.400 We have to try to maximally flourish, right?

00:57:27.960 In Norway, the sodomizer had opportunities.

00:57:32.180 In Mogadishu, he's not.

00:57:33.360 So he came out and said that he felt very bad about it.

00:57:37.440 Well, I'm here to tell you that we did not evolve the emotional system to feel empathy

00:57:45.400 for our rapists.

00:57:46.980 But if I have been parasitized to actually believe that the greatest crime I could commit

00:57:56.640 is to be Islamophobic, of course, which is a term that is nonsensical, then guess what? 0.99

00:58:04.120 When you rape me and your name is Mohammed, I go, thank you for that surprise lovemaking 1.00

00:58:10.020 session. 1.00

00:58:10.620 I am thankful for it.

00:58:12.380 So that, but this is why I use the framework of neuroparasitology, why I use suicidal epity.

00:58:21.820 And that's why, I mean, forgive me for being immodest, why it has captured the imagination

00:58:27.260 of the world, because it, I truly think that it's not because it had to be God's sad evolutionary

00:58:36.060 psychologist to come up with this.

00:58:38.460 Okay, that helps, but it also had to be God's sad with my own background, because I understand

00:58:46.220 your games, right?

00:58:47.780 You know who else understands those games?

00:58:50.600 Mossab from the...

00:58:53.180 Mossab Hassan Yusuf.

00:58:54.040 Mossab Yusuf...

00:58:54.800 Yusuf Hosef or Hosein Yusuf?

00:59:00.500 Mossab Hassan Yusuf.

00:59:02.480 Yusuf, right.

00:59:03.200 Who's been on my show, we've become friendly.

00:59:06.240 When you hear him speak, to me, it's music to my ears, because I understand his exasperation,

00:59:16.260 his frustration.

00:59:17.720 When he speaks and points to some, you know, Western woman who's wearing the keffiyeh at 0.97

00:59:25.160 a...

00:59:25.640 And he goes, you know nothing. 1.00

00:59:28.060 You're stupid. 1.00

00:59:28.800 I understand that, because he comes from that world, and he can't believe... 1.00

00:59:35.780 By the way, he doesn't understand Islam, but Karen Keffiyeh, who was born in Iowa, doesn't

00:59:45.540 speak Arabic, but took an Islamic studies course at Oberlin College, will explain to Mossab

00:59:52.960 what true Islam is.

00:59:55.120 That's why the West is dying.

00:59:56.700 It's just like people who live in the West who try to teach me what being a Jew is like,

01:00:04.280 or what being an Israeli is like.

01:00:05.820 It's the same thing.

01:00:07.360 But I have to ask you a personal question, because I am interested.

01:00:10.380 I do get life, death threats as well, for what I do, for the stuff that I expose.

01:00:15.340 I went to a Muslim town in England called Whitechapel to show the Islamization of the town, which 0.59

01:00:20.620 used to be predominantly Jewish, and now it's predominantly Bangladeshi, Bengali, which did not

01:00:26.520 feel like the UK, by the way.

01:00:28.020 But after I released this video, people started saying, now I'm sure you hate Muslims, I'm 0.89

01:00:31.980 sure you despise them, I'm sure you think that they are monsters and creatures, and I started 0.84

01:00:37.440 getting death threats, and I got emails saying, you need to be concerned about your safety,

01:00:43.200 because we're coming to your house.

01:00:44.620 Make sure you get a weapon.

01:00:45.820 Crazy stuff.

01:00:46.600 I want to know what it's like for you dealing with this on a daily basis, when you have

01:00:52.300 family, when you have kids.

01:00:54.020 What is it like for you dealing with these constant death threats?

01:00:57.920 Were you ever told by your family, by your wife?

01:01:00.620 I don't know, your marital situation.

01:01:03.540 You need to stop, because I'm getting the same thing from my wife right now. 0.99

01:01:07.280 Yeah, I mean, I think on a few occasions, she hinted at that, but I always remind her that

01:01:17.300 one of the reasons I think she loves me and admires me is exactly then the reasons why you're

01:01:24.100 telling me to not be who I am.

01:01:26.640 So, you know, sometimes you have to take the good with the bad in that you love my courage,

01:01:33.100 you love that I'm a very principled person, that I'm a very truthful person.

01:01:38.260 Yes, of course, you also have to be pragmatic.

01:01:40.660 You don't want to be a reckless martyr.

01:01:43.280 But that's why, by the way, I do, I have a very strong discipline.

01:01:48.880 If you look, you don't know what my, you've never seen a photo of my wife.

01:01:54.300 As a matter of fact, usually when someone meets me at an event where, you know, I know that it's

01:02:00.300 safe and so on, and they meet my wife, they usually will say, oh, I recognized you because

01:02:06.280 your husband will often put photos of the back of your hair.

01:02:10.100 She has very big, beautiful, curly hair.

01:02:12.520 And that's the only thing that anyone's ever seen of her.

01:02:15.000 The same happened to me.

01:02:15.900 The same happened to me.

01:02:16.740 I did a debate with a big streamer.

01:02:19.260 His name is Hamza.

01:02:20.040 And people heard my wife, the voice.

01:02:22.420 And then they heard her.

01:02:23.740 I went to an event.

01:02:24.500 They heard her voice.

01:02:25.200 They said, this is the voice.

01:02:27.220 This is the voice of the woman who debated Hamza. 0.91

01:02:29.340 Crazy, exactly the same.

01:02:30.760 But people also, they don't know what she looks like because I keep her safe.

01:02:34.680 Exactly.

01:02:35.260 And so I never, you know, I might say, oh, I was out with this child of mine here.

01:02:42.140 But, you know, you don't know their name.

01:02:44.540 You don't know who they are.

01:02:46.820 Actually, the thing that often worries me the most, never mind the death threats and so

01:02:52.820 on, is that, you know, people come up and they want to, it's very nice.

01:02:57.260 They want to take a picture with you and so on.

01:02:59.380 I always am worried that someone's going to take a photo while I'm with my family and

01:03:07.140 then post it.

01:03:07.840 So usually if I see them do that, I'll go up, I mean, politely, but aggressively and

01:03:13.260 say, don't post this anywhere.

01:03:16.700 And then they always, so I've never had a problem, but I'm very, very careful with these

01:03:21.060 kinds of things.

01:03:21.640 Yes.

01:03:22.140 Beautiful.

01:03:22.740 I would like to end by asking this.

01:03:24.660 Where can people find your books?

01:03:26.900 What website should they go to?

01:03:28.280 I want to include it in the link below because I do think you're incredible.

01:03:31.320 I want people to be exposed to your books.

01:03:33.940 I'm pretty sure a lot more people will know who you are.

01:03:36.840 I already know this, but I just want to, I want you to be able to promote your stuff

01:03:40.660 in five minutes, three minutes, one minute, whatever you want.

01:03:43.980 Okay.

01:03:44.380 Thank you for that.

01:03:45.540 Uh, so my books are available everywhere.

01:03:49.040 Uh, you know, you could go on Amazon, you can go directly to the, uh, publisher.

01:03:53.620 Uh, my earlier books were all in evolutionary psychology.

01:03:58.140 How do you apply evolutionary psychology to study human behavior?

01:04:02.020 Then I transitioned into writing the parasitic mind.

01:04:05.840 Then after that was a book on happiness.

01:04:09.000 I don't know if you could see it here.

01:04:10.480 It's a green one, the green one, or the one next to it, the one next to it.

01:04:14.060 This one, uh, this, this is called the sad S A A D the sad truth about happiness, eight

01:04:21.520 secrets for leading the good life.

01:04:22.860 The reason, by the way, why I wrote that book, I, I, I, I had no intention of writing

01:04:26.940 a happiness book, but I kept getting emails from thousands of people saying, what's your

01:04:32.520 secret?

01:04:32.900 How come you, you always tackle such difficult subjects, but you're always joking around

01:04:38.280 and you have a very good sense of humor.

01:04:40.600 What's your secret to being happy?

01:04:41.900 And so I said, okay, well, maybe I'll write a book about it.

01:04:44.320 And then my forthcoming book, suicidal empathy should be available to pre-order probably in

01:04:51.520 the next month or so.

01:04:53.220 It's actually, if I can do sort of a promotional thing, it really is important for people to

01:04:58.640 pre-order the book.

01:05:00.240 Let me explain why.

01:05:01.140 Because when you pre-order the book, the day that the book is actually released, let's say

01:05:08.400 10,000 people pre-order the book.

01:05:10.520 The day that it is released, it's as if those 10,000, the sale happened on the day of the

01:05:17.800 release.

01:05:18.340 So then it enters very quickly the best sellers list, and then that becomes an avalanche.

01:05:23.980 So it actually is really important to pre-order the book.

01:05:27.000 And so it'll probably be available in the next month or two.

01:05:31.600 I have a show called The Sad Truth, S-A-A-D.

01:05:36.860 Now everybody and their mother has a podcast, but I was one of the original ones.

01:05:42.300 Certainly, probably the first professor to have such a show.

01:05:45.740 It's been about 11 years now, 12 years, where I invite all sorts of people, not unlike how

01:05:50.320 we're having a conversation now, so you could go back probably to almost 2,000 episodes that

01:05:56.600 you could watch and listen to.

01:05:58.640 You could follow me on social media, Gadsad, G-A-D-S-A-A-D.

01:06:05.900 And even emails, although I can't anymore respond to the emails just because literally I would

01:06:13.160 I literally try to read every single email that's sent to me.
