00:00:00.000 When was the moment where you thought,
00:00:02.920 eh, I'm not really on board with this train?
00:00:06.460 When they told me I had to suck dick.
00:00:08.940 Honestly, it was that simple for me.
00:00:10.860 Who told you to suck dick?
00:00:12.340 A lot of people.
00:00:13.600 A lot of people claiming to be lesbians
00:00:16.060 because they were trans-inclusive lesbians.
00:00:20.780 Like, that was like the moment where I was like,
00:00:22.400 okay, this is just homophobia and it's fine.
00:00:24.180 Like, how did we get here?
00:00:25.420 How are these supposed people that are queer activists
00:00:29.520 literally against what homosexuality is?
00:00:39.520 Hello and welcome to Trigonometry.
00:00:42.420 I'm Francis Foster.
00:00:43.780 I'm Constantine Kissin.
00:00:44.860 And this is a show for you
00:00:46.440 if you want honest conversations with fascinating people.
00:00:50.240 Our brilliant and returning guest
00:00:51.860 is a fellow YouTuber, Arios Carcello.
00:00:53.580 Welcome back to Trigonometry.
00:00:54.940 Well, I mean, welcome.
00:00:56.720 Yes, I was going to say, welcome to England.
00:00:58.680 Yeah, thank you for welcoming me.
00:01:00.240 It's great to have you here.
00:01:01.220 First time we meet you in person.
00:01:02.640 We interviewed you during one of the lockdowns ages ago.
00:01:05.960 I think you interviewed me like a month
00:01:07.620 after I came out of the closet as like a non-leftist.
00:01:11.320 Really?
00:01:12.040 That's apparently what you said in like 2020.
00:01:14.120 That's like right when I came out as leaving the left.
00:01:17.080 Right, right.
00:01:17.440 So that must have been how you found me.
00:01:19.080 That's how everybody else found me.
00:01:19.900 I think so, yeah.
00:01:20.720 Well, a lot of people recommended that we speak with you.
00:01:23.420 And we had a conversation,
00:01:24.480 but remote is not the same as in person.
00:01:26.360 So just for anyone who didn't catch that interview,
00:01:29.620 who are you?
00:01:30.400 What has been your journey through life?
00:01:32.340 What leads you to be sitting here talking to us?
00:01:34.440 Oh my God, it's a lot.
00:01:36.440 It's a lot, let's be real.
00:01:38.400 I'm like the OG lesbian of YouTube, right?
00:01:40.300 Like I've been doing videos for 12 years.
00:01:43.400 And in the beginning it was like,
00:01:45.060 it's okay to be gay, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:01:47.200 Like that was like back in the day, right?
00:01:49.080 Like 2008, nine, 10, 11.
00:01:50.820 When it sort of needed to be said a little bit.
00:01:52.600 Right, we didn't even have gay marriage
00:01:54.080 in the United States, right?
00:01:55.140 So that was, it was actually oppression, right?
00:01:58.100 There was actual oppression.
00:01:59.000 Now everyone's gay.
00:01:59.920 Now everyone's gay.
00:02:00.560 Now everyone's non-binary.
00:02:02.640 Like what even is that?
00:02:03.960 So then I started talking about sex ed
00:02:05.820 and then I was like, okay,
00:02:06.700 I'm just getting sick of these crazy people
00:02:09.620 calling themselves queer, non-binary,
00:02:12.000 when they don't have gender dysphoria,
00:02:13.880 when they're not same-sex attracted,
00:02:15.960 when I know, you know, I could curse on here.
00:02:18.200 Like I know that you're a lesbian,
00:02:19.700 you wouldn't suck a dick.
00:02:21.660 Like, and people are afraid.
00:02:23.660 There's a lot of straight women
00:02:24.520 who wouldn't do that either,
00:02:25.400 but enough about my marital problems.
00:02:27.540 Anyway, carry on.
00:02:28.060 Oh my God.
00:02:29.520 So, but yeah, like it became such,
00:02:33.480 all the words and all the identities
00:02:35.240 used to mean so many different things
00:02:37.060 than they do now.
00:02:38.240 Yeah.
00:02:38.840 And then I started,
00:02:40.180 it's like I reverted back to the old thing.
00:02:42.920 It's okay to be a homosexual again.
00:02:45.180 Like that's where I'm at now.
00:02:46.440 And I talk about culture and politics
00:02:47.800 and that stuff.
00:02:49.080 So that's where I'm at now.
00:02:50.640 Because now you can't be gay anymore.
00:02:52.740 It's transphobic, you know, of course.
00:02:54.900 Oh, is it?
00:02:55.840 Yeah.
00:02:56.120 Let's get into that.
00:02:56.660 Yeah.
00:02:57.140 We could go dive right in.
00:02:58.500 Let's dive right into that.
00:02:59.900 So what do you mean by that?
00:03:01.060 Well, I don't, I, what do I mean?
00:03:02.620 What do they mean?
00:03:03.660 Okay.
00:03:03.960 And I mean, pun intended, they, the days,
00:03:06.560 the days we call them, the day thems.
00:03:08.520 Right.
00:03:09.180 It's like, you can't,
00:03:10.080 you can't be like a straight up lesbian anymore.
00:03:12.260 Why not?
00:03:13.120 Because they call you transphobic.
00:03:14.620 If you like, you're, I'm a lesbian that like,
00:03:16.200 I only want like vagina.
00:03:17.660 Sorry.
00:03:18.260 Oh, you're transphobic because some trans women
00:03:19.920 have penises and some trans women are women
00:03:22.320 and some trans women are lesbians.
00:03:23.860 And you need to like, it's like, no,
00:03:26.720 it's not how it works, but.
00:03:28.160 So you're saying being attracted to the same sex,
00:03:31.260 in your case, the female sex.
00:03:33.260 Yeah.
00:03:33.540 Is considered exclusionary by trans activists?
00:03:36.260 100%.
00:03:36.820 And a lot of them are here in the UK.
00:03:39.640 What?
00:03:40.720 Just saying.
00:03:41.960 I'm just saying.
00:03:43.680 It's like the United States, the UK and Australia.
00:03:46.320 It's like, and Canada, bad.
00:03:47.540 What's the Anglosphere really?
00:03:48.820 Going mental all at once.
00:03:49.940 I mean, it's first world countries.
00:03:51.300 Yeah.
00:03:51.560 First world problems, right?
00:03:52.620 Right, right, right, right.
00:03:53.480 You don't see people in Africa complaining
00:03:54.800 about like homosexuality.
00:03:56.600 Do you reckon this episode is going to be demonetized?
00:03:58.600 Yeah, probably.
00:04:00.560 Listen, then it's homophobia.
00:04:02.600 Same homophobia.
00:04:03.500 So I guess, but being serious for a second,
00:04:05.560 what you're saying is you are now seeing
00:04:07.400 that people like you who identify,
00:04:10.020 who identify, who are lesbian.
00:04:11.520 Right.
00:04:11.820 Right.
00:04:12.700 You are sort of, you're feeling pressure.
00:04:15.460 100%.
00:04:15.820 And I get messages every day.
00:04:17.920 Literally every day.
00:04:19.060 People that I date, like it's funny
00:04:20.460 because when I'm going to go on dates
00:04:22.080 and they find out like who I am, whatever,
00:04:23.540 they'll be like, a lot of them will be like,
00:04:24.900 oh, you must have girls up in your DMs flirting with you.
00:04:27.520 I'm like, actually, it's just,
00:04:28.760 it's a lot of like gay people that are like,
00:04:31.260 you know, I'm outcasted at my school
00:04:33.000 because I'm like homosexual
00:04:34.140 and I'm not non-binary and not queer
00:04:36.000 and I'm not, you know, trans identifying
00:04:38.320 and I'm not open to everything.
00:04:40.040 It's like, because you're just gay, like.
00:04:42.180 So you're not rainbow enough anymore.
00:04:43.540 You're not rainbow enough.
00:04:44.420 You can't, you can't just be like a basic gay guy
00:04:46.540 or a basic lesbian anymore.
00:04:47.920 Is it because.
00:04:48.540 You know why though, right?
00:04:49.560 No, go for it.
00:04:50.260 Why?
00:04:50.380 Because you, because nobody likes cis straight white people.
00:04:53.320 Right.
00:04:54.200 Or cis, like, the less, let me say this.
00:04:58.580 How do you say it?
00:04:59.500 Okay.
00:04:59.980 So like cis straight white men are at the bottom of the pole.
00:05:03.080 Like they're at the top of the world.
00:05:04.480 Yeah, we know.
00:05:05.320 Right.
00:05:05.640 They're at the top of the world
00:05:06.940 but like in the gay culture, right?
00:05:09.280 Like the woke culture, you're at the bottom.
00:05:11.660 Like nobody likes you.
00:05:12.400 So like, then you're, you could be white.
00:05:16.720 You could be a white, cis, but gay man.
00:05:20.540 Right.
00:05:21.060 And then you can be white, cis, lesbian.
00:05:23.980 Yeah.
00:05:24.640 And then it's like the queers, trans, black trans women,
00:05:28.080 black trans women at the top.
00:05:29.360 Right.
00:05:29.680 It's like, we have to praise these people.
00:05:31.260 And it's like, how about we're just all the fucking same?
00:05:33.140 Yeah.
00:05:33.720 Like we're all on the same level.
00:05:34.960 We're all learning about ourselves.
00:05:36.260 We're all different people.
00:05:37.920 Nobody has to hate anybody.
00:05:39.380 Like there has to, they're trying to erase hierarchy.
00:05:42.400 And these system of oppressions
00:05:43.620 by creating another system of oppression,
00:05:45.420 hating white people, hating straight people,
00:05:47.200 hating men.
00:05:48.460 It doesn't make any sense.
00:05:50.100 So now you have all these young kids
00:05:51.620 that are cis, straight white men
00:05:53.780 or cis, straight white women
00:05:54.800 that are claiming all these other identities
00:05:57.000 because they don't want to be on the bottom of the pole.
00:06:00.300 Right.
00:06:00.900 They don't want to be hated.
00:06:01.720 So they're like, just kidding.
00:06:02.600 I'm not actually white.
00:06:03.740 I'm Native American, like Elizabeth Warren.
00:06:06.560 Like, I'm just kidding.
00:06:07.580 I'm not, I'm actually non-binary.
00:06:09.080 So I'm like, I get like oppression points.
00:06:11.040 Now I'm up here.
00:06:12.400 This is what happens.
00:06:14.020 You created a new system of hierarchy.
00:06:16.520 Stupid.
00:06:17.980 Yeah.
00:06:18.140 They created what they were trying to erase.
00:06:21.920 It's a really good point.
00:06:23.560 What does queer mean, Ariel?
00:06:24.900 I don't even know.
00:06:25.960 I literally, I'm gay
00:06:27.100 and I don't even know what the word queer means anymore.
00:06:28.660 Because, I think, I think, you know, go ahead.
00:06:30.320 No, no, because queer came around in the 50s
00:06:34.020 and there was a type of,
00:06:35.220 and there was a genre of theater
00:06:36.540 and literature called queer theater, queer literature,
00:06:38.580 which was normally gay men and some gay women
00:06:41.460 talking about their experiences of what it was like
00:06:44.140 to live in that time where your identity
00:06:47.160 and your sexual identity was illegal.
00:06:49.940 Yeah.
00:06:51.000 And that's what a lot of that literature was about.
00:06:53.500 And it's very interesting.
00:06:54.400 And it has real power to it.
00:06:56.920 Yes.
00:06:57.120 But what does queer mean now?
00:06:59.280 I think queer, people use it.
00:07:01.420 What I think it should mean
00:07:02.720 is anyone that's gender dysphoric
00:07:04.980 or anyone that's same-sex attracted.
00:07:07.640 Even though I hate the word.
00:07:09.020 But I would be okay with other people using the word
00:07:10.840 for that purpose.
00:07:12.340 What I think it actually means now,
00:07:13.940 the way people use it,
00:07:14.640 is anything other than cis straight white man
00:07:16.700 or cis straight white woman.
00:07:19.700 Like, you color your hair, you're queer.
00:07:22.360 Like, you have a nose ring
00:07:23.560 and, like, a septum piercing
00:07:25.380 and, like, a little bit different haircut.
00:07:27.500 You cut your hair on the side, you're queer.
00:07:29.200 Even though you're, like, only, like,
00:07:30.820 or a woman that sleeps with, like, men.
00:07:32.840 You know, I think to some people who are coming to this-
00:07:35.100 Everyone wants to be in this, you know.
00:07:36.800 I know exactly what I mean.
00:07:38.060 And I think to some people coming to this whole thing
00:07:40.100 for, like, the first time
00:07:41.560 or who are, like, not on the internet, let's say.
00:07:44.200 They think that we're crazy, right?
00:07:45.260 Like, oh, you're over-exaggerating.
00:07:46.660 It's, like, actually-
00:07:47.660 And I sometimes think that we are over-exaggerating.
00:07:50.920 But we did a live show here in London.
00:07:54.220 And one of the bar stuff, who was very nice.
00:07:57.320 She was, she was, I say she, she, she identified.
00:08:00.420 We don't know what her identity is.
00:08:01.600 Fuck me.
00:08:02.380 This is difficult.
00:08:03.920 This person I'm talking about was-
00:08:06.740 Non-binary.
00:08:07.600 Non-binary.
00:08:07.860 And when one of our team talked to her,
00:08:11.660 just as a friendly chat,
00:08:13.460 she basically went,
00:08:15.160 you know, I thought you guys were, like,
00:08:16.460 these evil bigots, whatever.
00:08:17.760 Then I watched the show and you're cool.
00:08:19.660 And also she said,
00:08:21.900 she.
00:08:23.140 Well, some non-binary people go by-
00:08:25.000 It's a girl!
00:08:25.500 Go by she pronouns.
00:08:26.680 It's a girl.
00:08:27.420 I'm sorry, it was a girl.
00:08:27.880 So there's no fucking purpose of these pronouns anymore.
00:08:29.400 It was a girl, but-
00:08:30.420 Like Blair said, like,
00:08:31.320 they trade them, like, Pokemon cards, pronouns.
00:08:33.200 You have one, I have one, this one, I have one.
00:08:34.840 I swear to God, this is so fucking different.
00:08:36.640 It's so stupid.
00:08:37.400 Right.
00:08:37.920 Anyway, so this was someone who was born female,
00:08:40.660 identified as non-binary.
00:08:41.880 Right.
00:08:42.180 And what she said was,
00:08:43.160 look, I've grown up in a society
00:08:45.540 where women are quote-unquote
00:08:48.940 disadvantaged and oppressed, right?
00:08:50.960 Yep.
00:08:51.500 And this is a way for me
00:08:52.900 to opt out of this category.
00:08:56.960 But that's not true.
00:08:58.480 Because you go to the Middle East,
00:08:59.960 you can't opt out of being female.
00:09:02.000 But in this society, she can, right?
00:09:04.500 Which is the actual privilege, isn't it?
00:09:07.400 Isn't that so stupid?
00:09:08.980 And they claim everyone else has privilege.
00:09:10.560 Bitch, go to the Middle East,
00:09:12.000 they'll throw you off the building for being gay.
00:09:14.360 Like, it's insanity.
00:09:16.040 It's definitely getting demonetized, mate.
00:09:17.700 You think so?
00:09:18.620 Yeah, I think so.
00:09:19.860 I think that last little comment-
00:09:22.240 Just bleep it out.
00:09:22.920 There's nothing we don't say on the show, by the way.
00:09:24.860 No, no, fuck it.
00:09:25.160 We don't give a shit if it's demonetized.
00:09:27.560 We just find it funny.
00:09:28.600 We just laugh at YouTube's rules about this
00:09:30.640 because we're trying to have an honest conversation
00:09:32.520 and you can't.
00:09:33.480 But that's what we're trying to do.
00:09:36.620 But I guess where I'm going with it is like,
00:09:38.640 I think you're right about the totem pole
00:09:42.540 of different levels.
00:09:43.420 Like, people just want to be in a different place
00:09:45.420 on that pole.
00:09:46.140 Yes.
00:09:46.800 You know?
00:09:48.240 And I think it seems that when you talk-
00:09:51.280 Like, it sounds like something people who are bigots
00:09:54.280 would make up about people
00:09:55.500 who are just identifying as a different gender.
00:09:57.520 But they're actually doing it.
00:09:58.520 It's not made up.
00:09:59.580 Like, we're not making this up.
00:10:00.680 Right.
00:10:00.960 No.
00:10:01.200 This is an actual thing that's happening.
00:10:03.100 Like, everywhere.
00:10:04.580 That's first world countries.
00:10:05.940 Yeah.
00:10:06.520 Yeah.
00:10:06.920 But you know the thing that actually makes-
00:10:10.200 crystallizes what we're talking about
00:10:11.920 are the flags.
00:10:12.980 Have you seen the flags?
00:10:14.500 This is beautiful.
00:10:15.180 Like, the 80 different-
00:10:16.340 Like, I don't even-
00:10:17.160 I'm gay.
00:10:18.020 And I can't even-
00:10:19.340 I think I know about six of them.
00:10:20.840 Do you know what the straight flag is?
00:10:22.660 No.
00:10:23.280 It's beige.
00:10:24.700 Beige.
00:10:26.320 There's a straight flag now.
00:10:27.520 And it's beige.
00:10:28.200 It's beige.
00:10:28.680 And I'm sure you guys get shit for that.
00:10:30.340 Probably.
00:10:30.820 Like, if you had it hanging on your head.
00:10:31.900 We don't have one in there.
00:10:33.100 We don't have one framed.
00:10:34.180 But if you did, you would get shit for it.
00:10:36.460 Yeah.
00:10:37.000 Yeah.
00:10:37.760 Which is stupid.
00:10:37.920 Because that would be straight pride, wouldn't it?
00:10:39.460 Right.
00:10:39.940 Right.
00:10:40.140 And straight pride is bad.
00:10:40.940 You can't be straight anymore.
00:10:41.500 You can't be pride.
00:10:42.440 Yeah.
00:10:43.100 But it's so interesting.
00:10:44.740 To me, that is the most beautiful troll
00:10:47.000 I've ever seen in my life.
00:10:48.360 Yeah.
00:10:48.540 You get a flag, but it's beige
00:10:49.860 because you're fucking boring.
00:10:52.260 That's true.
00:10:53.260 That's exactly what it is.
00:10:54.240 Yeah.
00:10:54.440 So is this what you talk about now
00:10:56.600 on the YouTube channel?
00:10:58.420 I talk about, I mean, I dove into politics
00:11:00.980 for a little bit, but like that gets me demonetized.
00:11:03.720 Yeah.
00:11:03.840 It's also very, very difficult to talk about, right?
00:11:06.300 Because like nobody really knows
00:11:08.120 who's lying in politics.
00:11:09.640 Like everybody lies.
00:11:10.760 It's politics.
00:11:11.220 So I try to stick to more culture-based stuff.
00:11:14.640 Yeah.
00:11:15.140 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:15.500 And it just happens right now.
00:11:17.160 People can call me transphobic for it,
00:11:18.700 but like this is a women's rights issue
00:11:21.420 and I've always been an actual,
00:11:23.200 like a traditional feminist.
00:11:24.460 Not like these crazy ones, right?
00:11:26.480 But traditional feminists,
00:11:28.000 like men and women should be treated
00:11:29.820 for the most part in general as equals.
00:11:33.260 Traditional feminist kind of stuff.
00:11:34.540 My body, my choice.
00:11:35.440 I am pro-choice.
00:11:36.260 I'm always going to be pro-choice.
00:11:37.140 Not that I think killing babies is good.
00:11:39.040 It's a lot of, like I said,
00:11:39.820 it's a big conversation,
00:11:40.660 but that's more of where I'm going now.
00:11:44.200 It's not much about politics
00:11:45.900 unless there's like a gay rights issue
00:11:48.140 in politics at the moment,
00:11:49.520 then I'll talk about it.
00:11:50.280 Right now it's a lot about women's rights
00:11:52.060 because you have Leah Thomas
00:11:54.100 looking like a straight up dude.
00:11:57.160 Like I believe,
00:11:57.780 I do believe that person is a trans woman, probably.
00:12:00.560 I mean, she does seem like an actual trans person,
00:12:02.920 but it doesn't mean that it's fair, right?
00:12:06.280 You can be,
00:12:08.020 there can be two things,
00:12:09.060 two things can be true at once.
00:12:11.160 Right.
00:12:11.400 Somebody can be trans,
00:12:12.400 but it doesn't mean they're entitled to compete with women.
00:12:14.300 Right.
00:12:14.600 Two things can be true at once.
00:12:15.600 Exactly.
00:12:16.540 But the left can't see it that way.
00:12:18.680 It's a black, very black and white,
00:12:20.380 which is kind of weird, right?
00:12:21.540 Because they're not,
00:12:22.440 they're like anti-racist.
00:12:24.220 They don't see color.
00:12:25.260 It's like,
00:12:26.260 I don't know.
00:12:27.360 It's a really good point.
00:12:29.400 It's bad.
00:12:29.940 Particularly with Leah Thomas.
00:12:31.680 You know,
00:12:31.940 we have a lot of people on to discuss this particular issue.
00:12:35.320 Yeah.
00:12:35.680 And this is a question that I ask of a few of our guests.
00:12:39.740 The first people to really start talking about this
00:12:42.520 were gay women.
00:12:43.700 I remember a friend of mine,
00:12:45.240 who she was talking about this kind of stuff in 2014.
00:12:49.200 In 20.
00:12:49.700 Wow.
00:12:50.160 That's,
00:12:50.920 yeah.
00:12:51.180 Because she goes to all female sex clubs
00:12:54.500 and she would go there and participate.
00:12:57.660 I sound so old.
00:12:59.060 Participate.
00:12:59.520 Old and boring.
00:13:00.420 Old and boring.
00:13:01.580 Beige.
00:13:02.080 Beige.
00:13:02.740 You know,
00:13:03.300 my little flag outside,
00:13:04.800 down with this sort of thing.
00:13:06.040 No.
00:13:06.660 That's funny.
00:13:07.440 That is a troll thing.
00:13:08.220 Beige flag.
00:13:08.960 I can't.
00:13:09.720 And so she would be there
00:13:11.060 and there would be,
00:13:12.620 basically a dude would walk in wearing a dress.
00:13:15.280 Yeah.
00:13:15.580 And they'd be like,
00:13:16.280 you're a dude in a dress.
00:13:17.980 Which is not a trans woman, by the way.
00:13:19.760 Right.
00:13:19.960 And he'd be like,
00:13:20.740 well, I identify as female.
00:13:22.140 And this was like 2014, 2015.
00:13:23.940 Wow.
00:13:24.280 That didn't happen in New York back then.
00:13:25.900 There was one person,
00:13:27.920 but I think her name was Joanne.
00:13:30.980 And she was,
00:13:31.700 she wasn't,
00:13:32.340 I don't think she was a cross,
00:13:33.600 I don't think she was trans.
00:13:34.520 I think she was a cross dresser.
00:13:35.620 Yeah.
00:13:36.160 But she never made us feel uncomfortable.
00:13:38.220 Yeah.
00:13:38.420 Never.
00:13:39.120 And we accepted her.
00:13:40.120 We were like,
00:13:40.480 this was like 2014, 2015.
00:13:41.960 Like she came to the gay club,
00:13:43.480 the lesbian club,
00:13:44.400 never hit on anybody.
00:13:45.700 Yeah.
00:13:45.880 Because she's not a trans woman.
00:13:47.440 She's just a dude that likes wearing dresses.
00:13:49.500 Fine.
00:13:49.960 Yeah.
00:13:50.440 We didn't care,
00:13:51.000 but that's the difference, right?
00:13:52.380 Yeah.
00:13:52.660 Like feeling entitled to a space
00:13:54.420 versus knowing that you're a guest in the space.
00:13:58.880 I know that sounds like a very woke thing to say,
00:14:01.060 but it's true in some cases, right?
00:14:02.920 They can't just like walk into like a man,
00:14:05.760 like a men's bath house as a woman.
00:14:07.500 Like that's weird.
00:14:09.520 Like you can,
00:14:09.960 it's like that's a men's space.
00:14:11.440 Right.
00:14:12.520 She didn't do that.
00:14:13.720 So we didn't care if she was trans
00:14:15.600 or just a simple cross dresser.
00:14:17.980 She just hung out
00:14:18.860 and just act like any of the other girls,
00:14:20.400 never hit on us,
00:14:21.180 never like made us feel uncomfortable.
00:14:22.680 That's the difference.
00:14:23.840 But you're a dude in a dress
00:14:24.860 and then you're like hitting on girls
00:14:26.280 and like being,
00:14:26.960 if that's,
00:14:27.500 I'm assuming that's probably what was happening.
00:14:29.680 That's disrespectful.
00:14:30.720 Yeah.
00:14:31.100 Like you're clearly a dude in a dress
00:14:32.640 or a cross dresser,
00:14:34.020 whatever you want to call it.
00:14:35.120 And you're impeding on women's spaces.
00:14:37.240 So one place we have,
00:14:38.240 there's like five lesbian bars left in the United States.
00:14:40.560 You really have to come to our bar?
00:14:41.980 Like go away.
00:14:43.920 But I think that's kind of the point, isn't it?
00:14:46.180 Because we've all got-
00:14:47.220 Which is a very male thing to do, by the way.
00:14:49.360 No, no offense.
00:14:50.480 No.
00:14:51.000 No, no.
00:14:51.840 It is.
00:14:52.240 None taken.
00:14:52.800 Yeah.
00:14:53.280 See, this is why I kind of miss the old days of comedy
00:14:56.000 because in some ways,
00:14:57.140 like we being comedians,
00:14:58.660 you could take the piss out of men and women.
00:15:01.360 And that was,
00:15:01.900 and you just treat like men are different to women.
00:15:04.680 Men are stupid in many ways.
00:15:06.900 Women do things in ways-
00:15:08.460 And women are sneaky in many ways.
00:15:09.500 Right.
00:15:09.820 Yeah.
00:15:10.220 We're just different.
00:15:11.640 Yeah.
00:15:11.940 And like,
00:15:12.440 but now you can't really address that
00:15:15.700 without becoming some kind of evil-
00:15:17.900 Yeah, because gender is made up.
00:15:19.100 Right.
00:15:20.260 But I think one of the points you hit on
00:15:22.360 actually is really important,
00:15:23.420 which is the sort of like every group now,
00:15:26.160 we don't,
00:15:27.160 we're not trying to like make people's lives easier
00:15:30.400 or like just,
00:15:31.560 just like go,
00:15:32.920 oh, this person is a bit different.
00:15:34.280 Let's include them if we can.
00:15:35.840 It's more like,
00:15:36.680 this is my fucking right.
00:15:38.580 I deserve to be here.
00:15:40.080 Right.
00:15:40.900 And that's not how gay people-
00:15:42.080 And everything is like that.
00:15:42.820 That's not how gay people won their rights,
00:15:44.100 by the way.
00:15:44.940 Like it's different at Stonewall.
00:15:46.440 Yes.
00:15:46.740 Stonewall,
00:15:47.180 they acted like that
00:15:47.780 because they were getting beaten up.
00:15:48.840 Yeah.
00:15:49.040 Yeah.
00:15:49.400 That's a different scenario.
00:15:50.440 Yeah.
00:15:51.180 But gay people were like,
00:15:52.400 we're just like you.
00:15:53.440 We just want something a little different,
00:15:54.900 but we want to interact with society
00:15:56.380 and be a part of society like everyone else.
00:15:58.760 That's not what this new movement's about.
00:16:00.080 It's the opposite.
00:16:01.120 It's literally the opposite,
00:16:02.080 like what you're saying.
00:16:03.440 You have to conform to what we think about ourselves
00:16:06.160 is the opposite of what gay people did,
00:16:08.940 which is we're going to conform to you.
00:16:10.660 We're just a little different.
00:16:12.820 And it's so-
00:16:13.540 That's why the-
00:16:14.340 Go ahead.
00:16:14.640 No, no, no.
00:16:15.080 Go ahead.
00:16:15.440 Finish this.
00:16:15.520 No, I was going to say,
00:16:16.080 I think that's why trans rights is the-
00:16:18.940 Not actual trans people,
00:16:20.260 by the way,
00:16:20.580 I don't think.
00:16:20.980 This is just like these non-binary queer people.
00:16:23.040 That's why it's reversing our rights.
00:16:25.120 That's why a lot of these issues are going backwards.
00:16:29.240 How so?
00:16:30.900 A lot of it.
00:16:31.880 Just like the trans rights specifically,
00:16:33.920 I would say.
00:16:34.800 Well, how are your-
00:16:35.820 How is it going backwards?
00:16:36.340 I don't disagree with you,
00:16:37.300 but just give us some flesh.
00:16:38.060 Well, maybe not the rights necessarily.
00:16:39.820 I would say the acceptance of us.
00:16:42.360 Well, there's data to show that.
00:16:43.860 Yes, yes, yes.
00:16:44.900 There's data to show that.
00:16:45.660 So people are becoming-
00:16:46.620 We're less and less accepting of LGBT people
00:16:48.960 over the last five years.
00:16:50.280 Yeah.
00:16:50.720 Because of people like that.
00:16:51.640 Like, you have to see me as I see myself.
00:16:53.740 That's not what self-ID is.
00:16:55.460 Self-ID means self-ID.
00:16:58.600 If you want to be accepted into society,
00:17:00.320 unfortunately, this is just how it is.
00:17:02.540 It's not fair, maybe,
00:17:04.080 but it's just how the world is.
00:17:05.220 Like, you want to be accepted as a man,
00:17:06.300 you have to kind of look like a dude.
00:17:07.540 Like, it's that simple.
00:17:09.660 Does everyone get the opportunity
00:17:11.660 to look like a dude?
00:17:12.520 No, because some people are,
00:17:14.000 unfortunately,
00:17:14.580 aren't going to be able to pass.
00:17:16.060 But like, make an effort,
00:17:17.100 and I guarantee most people will accept you.
00:17:19.520 It's these people that are entitled,
00:17:20.820 like you said.
00:17:22.440 But we all are.
00:17:23.380 We all are entitled.
00:17:24.020 We're annoyed.
00:17:24.640 We're annoyed.
00:17:25.020 Like, all groups now.
00:17:26.040 Like, we're all,
00:17:26.800 this is the problem is,
00:17:27.960 all of us have been like told,
00:17:29.460 you are this group.
00:17:30.760 Like, I'm supposed to go,
00:17:32.340 well, I'm a first generation immigrant,
00:17:34.060 and I, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:17:35.380 Right.
00:17:36.080 What?
00:17:36.800 For what?
00:17:37.200 What's the purpose?
00:17:37.800 Exactly.
00:17:38.520 Like, why do I need to identify
00:17:40.360 as part of this group,
00:17:41.860 and then pursue our group rights together?
00:17:43.880 Like, why can't I just be, like, a person?
00:17:47.040 Because I think divide,
00:17:48.120 do you think it's the divide and conquer technique?
00:17:49.660 Right.
00:17:50.060 Do you think that's what it is?
00:17:50.920 I think that's part of it.
00:17:52.240 And I think it's also,
00:17:53.340 I think it's also that hierarchy thing, again.
00:17:55.680 It's like, they don't want white people.
00:17:57.600 Like, they're racists, literally.
00:17:59.340 They hate white people.
00:18:00.560 They hate men.
00:18:01.480 They hate white men, specifically.
00:18:05.080 So.
00:18:05.320 Sorry, mate.
00:18:05.920 Yeah.
00:18:06.260 No, but it's true.
00:18:07.700 It's true.
00:18:08.520 Like, they, it's,
00:18:09.540 and it's funny because, like,
00:18:10.540 I've never had an issue with white men.
00:18:12.500 Like, white men, for the most part,
00:18:14.900 are usually, like,
00:18:16.380 well, I was going to say white people,
00:18:17.520 for the most part,
00:18:18.520 are usually the most accepting of LGBT people.
00:18:20.760 I don't know if you guys know that.
00:18:21.940 But if you go to, like, Puerto Rico,
00:18:23.460 Dominican Republic, Mexico,
00:18:25.180 they're not as, like, LGBT friendly there.
00:18:26.920 I'm just saying, black people,
00:18:28.480 very Christian, very Catholic.
00:18:29.740 You got to remember.
00:18:30.340 It's a thing.
00:18:31.500 So, I don't know why people in the gay community
00:18:33.920 are hating white people so much.
00:18:35.680 Like, on paper,
00:18:36.640 they are the most accepting of LGBT people.
00:18:38.340 LGBT people.
00:18:39.120 I think it's,
00:18:40.080 maybe within the U.S.,
00:18:41.880 if you look at...
00:18:42.620 Within the U.S.
00:18:43.300 Right.
00:18:43.660 It's, if you look elsewhere,
00:18:45.060 so you gave the example of,
00:18:46.560 I mean, Puerto Rico is part of the U.S.,
00:18:48.120 isn't it?
00:18:48.380 Technically.
00:18:48.820 Right.
00:18:50.420 Yeah, it's like a territory.
00:18:52.480 Yeah.
00:18:52.780 But, like, for example,
00:18:53.960 where I come from, Russia, Ukraine,
00:18:56.180 these aren't places that are great
00:18:57.620 on LGBT rights.
00:18:58.760 Right, right.
00:18:59.440 I'm talking about the States.
00:19:00.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:19:00.780 White people in the States.
00:19:01.420 So, yeah.
00:19:02.700 I hear what you're saying.
00:19:03.960 Right, right.
00:19:04.880 Yeah, yeah.
00:19:05.520 That's what I mean.
00:19:05.880 But is there a thing in...
00:19:06.880 Because this is most,
00:19:07.320 this queer movement's mostly in the States,
00:19:09.060 right?
00:19:09.340 Right.
00:19:09.580 And here, and here.
00:19:10.120 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:19:10.700 Like, Canada.
00:19:11.200 And are you saying that in America,
00:19:14.720 in the LGBT community,
00:19:17.500 if there's such a thing,
00:19:19.120 people are sort of,
00:19:20.480 like, they've embraced this idea
00:19:21.920 that white people are sort of...
00:19:23.420 Evil.
00:19:24.400 Like, 100%.
00:19:25.280 They hate them.
00:19:27.100 And it's sad because, like,
00:19:28.300 Marcus and I will be walking in the street
00:19:29.860 and, like, he'll get looks even.
00:19:32.280 Because he's like, he gets...
00:19:33.660 My friend Marcus is behind the camera.
00:19:35.160 Right.
00:19:35.440 He's a trans guy.
00:19:36.720 He gets shit because he's cis passing
00:19:38.900 as a trans person.
00:19:40.720 Like, that's the point as a trans person.
00:19:42.360 You want to pass as the gender that you feel.
00:19:45.620 Quite.
00:19:46.320 And that they give him shit for it.
00:19:47.960 Because they're not trans.
00:19:48.980 They don't care about actual passing.
00:19:50.780 So, it's just this whole movement
00:19:52.460 is everyone speaking above everybody else.
00:19:55.760 And feeling entitled to that space,
00:19:58.140 to speak from that space,
00:19:59.360 when they're not actually a part of that space.
00:20:00.780 Hey, Francis.
00:20:02.960 Do you go on the internet
00:20:04.200 to look at naughty stuff?
00:20:06.340 Yeah.
00:20:07.140 Is it stuff that you'd be embarrassed
00:20:08.720 to show your friends?
00:20:10.360 Yeah.
00:20:10.960 Is it stuff that would get you cancelled?
00:20:12.920 Yeah.
00:20:13.640 Well, next time you decide to be naughty
00:20:15.700 and watch more trigonometry,
00:20:17.460 you need to use ExpressVPN.
00:20:19.700 It doesn't matter, mate,
00:20:20.940 because I use incognito mode.
00:20:24.060 Ha!
00:20:24.320 It doesn't matter what mode you use
00:20:26.580 or how many times you clear your browsing history.
00:20:28.820 Your internet service provider
00:20:30.600 can still see every single website
00:20:33.720 you've ever visited.
00:20:35.180 That's why, even when you're at home,
00:20:37.140 you should never go online
00:20:38.200 without using ExpressVPN.
00:20:40.240 My career is finished!
00:20:42.660 There, there.
00:20:43.280 You'll have to leave trigonometry.
00:20:44.820 Can't be helped.
00:20:45.840 Anyway, it doesn't matter
00:20:46.960 who your internet service provider is.
00:20:49.220 ISPs in the US
00:20:50.660 can legally sell your information
00:20:52.360 to ad companies.
00:20:53.280 ExpressVPN is an app
00:20:55.460 that reroutes your internet connection
00:20:57.120 through their secure service
00:20:58.460 so your ISP can't see the site you visit.
00:21:01.460 Absolutely finished!
00:21:03.880 ExpressVPN also keeps
00:21:05.660 all of your information secure
00:21:07.180 by encrypting 100% of your data
00:21:10.140 with the most powerful encryption available.
00:21:12.680 Most of the time,
00:21:13.640 you won't even realize
00:21:14.520 you have ExpressVPN on.
00:21:16.300 It runs seamlessly in the background
00:21:18.000 and is so easy to use.
00:21:20.280 All you have to do is tap one button
00:21:21.960 and you're protected.
00:21:23.280 What am I going to do?
00:21:25.240 ExpressVPN is available
00:21:26.900 on all your devices,
00:21:28.620 phones, computers,
00:21:29.660 even your smart TV.
00:21:31.140 So there's no excuse
00:21:32.240 for you not to be using it.
00:21:33.920 Go on, Francis.
00:21:34.740 Do the last bit.

00:22:07.840 Do you know what really worries me
00:22:09.460 is that there are things
00:22:11.520 that we have in place
00:22:12.720 in our society,
00:22:14.100 like women's spaces.
00:22:16.660 Everybody understands
00:22:17.980 why there's women's spaces.
00:22:19.480 We all get it.
00:22:20.680 We all get it.
00:22:21.300 Particularly as a man,
00:22:22.380 you understand.
00:22:23.880 You know what?
00:22:24.420 There's a point I want to make real quick
00:22:25.600 because I'm going to make it.
00:22:27.740 When you were a kid,
00:22:28.660 I don't know if you do this in the UK,
00:22:29.640 but we do this in the United States.
00:22:30.960 When you were a little boy
00:22:32.020 and you were only with your mom
00:22:33.760 or your aunt
00:22:34.740 and you had to go to the bathroom,
00:22:36.220 which bathroom did they take you in?
00:22:37.880 They took me,
00:22:39.560 I can't remember actually.
00:22:41.260 Okay.
00:22:42.080 99% of the time,
00:22:43.140 they'll take you to the women's bathroom with them.
00:22:44.240 Yeah.
00:22:44.760 Why is that?
00:22:47.400 Why is that?
00:22:48.180 They don't want a little boy
00:22:49.100 going in the men's room?
00:22:50.120 That's kind of weird, right?
00:22:51.040 Oh, it makes sense though.
00:22:52.200 Yeah.
00:22:52.580 Because males are more likely to be predators
00:22:54.280 than sexual predators.
00:22:55.180 Yeah.
00:22:56.380 That's why we need women's spaces.
00:22:57.800 So little boys know this at a very young age.
00:23:00.380 And the argument that I always use-
00:23:01.400 And also as a little boy in a women's space,
00:23:03.420 you're not a threat
00:23:04.080 because you're a little boy.
00:23:04.960 Because you're a little boy.
00:23:06.060 Right.
00:23:06.640 Yeah.
00:23:07.300 And the argument that I always use
00:23:08.560 when people go,
00:23:09.280 oh, but you know,
00:23:09.980 we should have unisex bathrooms
00:23:11.520 is a nightclub argument.
00:23:13.180 And you will know this better than anyone.
00:23:14.960 At the gay club,
00:23:15.740 everyone just uses the same.
00:23:16.700 Yeah.
00:23:17.140 Nobody cares.
00:23:18.280 It's not my favorite thing
00:23:19.260 because the gay dude's fucking the stalls
00:23:21.040 and I'm like,
00:23:21.400 all right, well, it's like...
00:23:22.220 But, you know.
00:23:23.620 I mean, that took a detail.
00:23:24.800 But that's true.
00:23:26.180 Yeah, yeah.
00:23:26.500 You're giving us an entry into...
00:23:28.520 No, no, it's brilliant.
00:23:29.460 Into a world with which we have
00:23:30.860 no familiarity at all.
00:23:32.780 But in a straight nightclub,
00:23:35.180 let's just call it that,
00:23:36.000 or a mainstream nightclub,
00:23:37.080 if a dude's harassing you
00:23:38.320 and you make it quite clear to him
00:23:40.440 that you're not interested
00:23:41.380 for whatever reason
00:23:42.380 and he continues to hit on you,
00:23:44.460 which unfortunately
00:23:45.120 is just the reality of life,
00:23:46.820 where do you go that's safe?
00:23:48.700 In a women's space.
00:23:49.900 Yeah.
00:23:50.320 Yeah.
00:23:50.980 And then the girl that's drunk is like,
00:23:52.920 babe, are you okay?
00:23:54.980 Like,
00:23:55.580 and then you're like,
00:23:56.580 not mad about that she's drunk
00:23:57.660 and helping you.
00:23:58.260 It's like, okay,
00:23:58.800 thank you.
00:23:59.660 Yeah.
00:23:59.880 But once we obliterate that...
00:24:03.880 Yeah.
00:24:04.780 There's a reason for women's spaces.
00:24:06.600 Like, there is.
00:24:07.780 And it's a safe...
00:24:08.960 It's 99% of the time
00:24:10.220 it's a safety issue thing.
00:24:11.460 Yeah.
00:24:12.300 I know people will be pissed off
00:24:14.360 at me asking this question,
00:24:15.380 but I'm going to ask it anyway.
00:24:16.640 Do you think...
00:24:16.920 I love it then.
00:24:17.480 Go.
00:24:17.920 Part of how we got here
00:24:20.000 is there were sort of
00:24:22.180 parts of feminism,
00:24:23.120 not all...
00:24:23.460 Like you said,
00:24:23.920 there's different ways
00:24:24.680 of doing feminism
00:24:25.420 and some of them I think
00:24:26.240 are really important
00:24:27.160 and I agree with completely.
00:24:28.560 But there was also
00:24:29.900 a part of feminism
00:24:30.780 which sort of sought
00:24:31.800 to pretend that there are
00:24:33.040 no differences
00:24:33.500 between men and women.
00:24:34.480 Yes.
00:24:34.980 And then you end up
00:24:36.120 in this position, right?
00:24:37.100 Yes.
00:24:37.320 You're going,
00:24:37.900 well, there's no difference
00:24:38.840 between women and women.
00:24:39.540 Why do you need women's spaces?
00:24:40.560 We're all the same.
00:24:41.520 Right.
00:24:42.040 But we're not the same.
00:24:43.740 No.
00:24:44.440 Not at all.
00:24:45.360 A true feminist isn't going to say
00:24:46.700 just because you want to be treated
00:24:48.280 as an equal
00:24:48.720 doesn't mean you're the same.
00:24:49.700 Equal and the same
00:24:50.380 don't mean the same thing.
00:24:51.240 Right.
00:24:52.700 Like you can have
00:24:53.540 a math equation
00:24:54.400 and it's equal
00:24:55.180 but it's not the same.
00:24:56.480 Yeah.
00:24:56.880 You know what I mean?
00:24:57.500 Yeah, of course.
00:24:58.020 They don't mean the same thing.
00:24:59.660 Yeah.
00:25:00.200 You treat me as an equal
00:25:01.560 but that doesn't mean
00:25:02.740 like respect me as the same, right?
00:25:04.620 Yeah.
00:25:04.840 Pay me the same
00:25:05.580 but that doesn't mean
00:25:06.220 Don't discriminate against me
00:25:06.940 in employment.
00:25:07.500 Right, but that doesn't mean
00:25:08.240 we're the same.
00:25:09.060 Yeah.
00:25:09.500 Right, there's a big difference.
00:25:10.360 People misconstrue those two words.
00:25:13.400 So where do you think
00:25:14.100 this is all going?
00:25:15.000 I don't know.
00:25:17.180 Honestly, I think
00:25:18.020 that it's coming to an end.
00:25:19.800 Really?
00:25:20.300 You do?
00:25:20.840 I really do.
00:25:21.520 I think within the next five years
00:25:22.700 we're going to see it come to an end.
00:25:24.120 I think the new generation
00:25:25.360 like Gen Z was like
00:25:26.480 forget it,
00:25:27.620 off the rails.
00:25:28.620 I think
00:25:28.960 I'm a millennial.
00:25:29.880 We're millennials.
00:25:30.500 Yeah.
00:25:30.600 I think we
00:25:31.640 I love the way we embrace that.
00:25:33.380 We are millennials.
00:25:33.900 Because we're right on the cusp.
00:25:34.940 We're clinging desperately
00:25:36.240 to being millennials.
00:25:36.900 No, you are.
00:25:36.940 No, you're millennials.
00:25:37.760 Yeah.
00:25:37.860 I think
00:25:38.780 I mean, we're biased, of course
00:25:41.480 but I think we make the most sense
00:25:42.840 and I think we were
00:25:44.600 like pro-LGBT,
00:25:46.340 actual LGBT rights
00:25:47.400 and like pro-feminism
00:25:48.840 and now I think it's
00:25:49.960 just gone too far
00:25:51.440 to the other side
00:25:52.520 and it's starting to come back
00:25:53.800 and I think
00:25:55.220 within five years
00:25:56.140 I think it's going to
00:25:56.820 I think this new generation of kids
00:25:58.280 like the younger kids
00:25:59.080 are actually going to be
00:25:59.680 more conservative.
00:26:00.680 Because they're looking at this shit
00:26:01.960 like Leah Thomas in sports
00:26:04.140 and they're looking at this
00:26:05.300 as kids
00:26:05.660 and they're like
00:26:06.060 that doesn't make sense.
00:26:06.800 Like kids know
00:26:07.380 and kids are honest
00:26:08.200 and they don't sugarcoat it.
00:26:10.060 They know that something is wrong.
00:26:11.600 So they're seeing this happen
00:26:12.680 and it doesn't make sense to them.
00:26:13.620 Do you reckon that's happening though?
00:26:14.780 Because if you look at
00:26:15.560 what's being taught
00:26:16.480 to children at school
00:26:17.440 that, well that's
00:26:18.700 that's indoctrination.
00:26:19.980 Quite.
00:26:20.240 If we didn't indoctrinate them
00:26:21.700 I think
00:26:22.160 Right, but we are indoctrinating.
00:26:23.680 But people are fighting
00:26:24.320 against that too in America.
00:26:25.480 They are.
00:26:25.960 So it's
00:26:26.760 like I said
00:26:27.460 they're starting to fight against it
00:26:28.620 so I think it's going to continue
00:26:29.760 I think people are going to
00:26:31.640 continue to fight against it.
00:26:32.560 I hope so.
00:26:33.840 I was not
00:26:34.420 when you're actually LGBT
00:26:35.620 you don't need to be told
00:26:37.540 that you're LGBT.
00:26:39.020 Like you know
00:26:39.640 that you're different.
00:26:40.620 I knew when I was
00:26:41.260 nine years old
00:26:42.420 that I was gay.
00:26:43.340 I didn't know what it meant
00:26:44.060 but I knew like
00:26:44.980 romantically
00:26:46.380 it was a romantic thing
00:26:47.340 like oh I want to hold
00:26:48.000 that woman's hand
00:26:48.720 and I want to like
00:26:49.300 right I want to be the
00:26:50.540 I want
00:26:50.980 I thought I was like
00:26:51.480 oh I want to be the prince
00:26:52.360 and like save the woman
00:26:53.300 the princess
00:26:54.080 blah blah blah.
00:26:55.160 It's not a sexual thing
00:26:56.220 at that age.
00:26:56.720 Now you're teaching kids
00:26:57.480 about sex and stuff?
00:26:59.280 That's not okay.
00:27:00.700 No.
00:27:00.860 But how have we got
00:27:01.800 to this point?
00:27:02.620 How have we got
00:27:03.280 to this point
00:27:03.880 I talked about this
00:27:06.220 no sorry
00:27:06.580 I talked about this
00:27:07.280 with Blair
00:27:07.720 Blair White
00:27:08.320 and
00:27:09.260 We've had Blair
00:27:09.880 on the show as well.
00:27:10.520 Love her.
00:27:11.100 Yeah she's a great person.
00:27:12.320 Like really actually
00:27:12.980 a good person.
00:27:13.980 We talked about this
00:27:14.880 it's an extreme
00:27:15.840 overcorrection.
00:27:18.040 Like did gay people
00:27:19.160 get treated badly?
00:27:20.060 Yes.
00:27:20.440 Did black people
00:27:21.100 get treated badly?
00:27:21.960 Yes.
00:27:22.840 But now it's like
00:27:23.580 it's like overcorrecting
00:27:25.320 like everybody's gay.
00:27:27.820 Right.
00:27:28.100 Everybody
00:27:28.580 microaggressions.
00:27:29.920 Right.
00:27:30.520 It's like
00:27:31.040 it's too much.
00:27:31.800 It's like how about
00:27:32.300 we just meet in the middle
00:27:33.200 and that's where
00:27:33.760 everybody should be
00:27:34.340 right here.
00:27:35.320 But it's people
00:27:36.020 it's society overcorrecting
00:27:38.000 all these mistakes
00:27:38.600 that they've made
00:27:39.200 and that's why
00:27:40.100 we call it woke.
00:27:40.920 It's like all these
00:27:41.480 overcorrections.
00:27:42.380 Like calm down.
00:27:43.800 Not everybody has to be gay.
00:27:45.120 Not everybody's trans
00:27:45.820 just because they act
00:27:46.560 a little different.
00:27:47.640 Right.
00:27:48.640 Not everybody's racist.
00:27:50.840 Calm down.
00:27:52.420 But it also gives people
00:27:53.760 cachet to be the victim
00:27:54.880 and it gets them
00:27:55.480 a really easy
00:27:56.560 get out of free
00:27:57.340 get out of jail free card.
00:27:59.500 So I'll give you an example.
00:28:00.160 So a couple of weeks ago
00:28:01.720 I did a test for ADHD.
00:28:03.000 I've had
00:28:03.300 it came out
00:28:04.520 I've got ADHD.
00:28:06.320 And that means
00:28:06.760 Most people do I think right?
00:28:07.940 Yeah.
00:28:08.280 Yeah it's pretty common yeah.
00:28:09.300 Yeah.
00:28:09.740 And so that means
00:28:10.640 there's been a lot of things
00:28:11.860 in my life
00:28:12.260 that I've really struggled with.
00:28:13.540 Right.
00:28:14.120 And it's very easy
00:28:15.440 for me to then go
00:28:16.260 oh that's the result
00:28:17.140 of this condition
00:28:17.900 therefore I can't do this
00:28:18.980 I can't do that
00:28:19.680 it's everybody else's fault
00:28:21.080 instead of going
00:28:21.960 well how
00:28:22.980 How do I fix it?
00:28:23.820 Yeah.
00:28:23.960 Or how do I help myself?
00:28:25.220 Because that's difficult.
00:28:26.620 It is difficult
00:28:27.240 but it's the way you have
00:28:28.400 what else are you going to do?
00:28:29.360 You can blame everybody else
00:28:31.300 but that's not actually
00:28:32.160 going to help you.
00:28:33.420 No.
00:28:34.160 That's not self-growth.
00:28:35.560 No.
00:28:36.920 But for me
00:28:38.680 what I find worrying
00:28:39.600 about this ideology
00:28:40.500 is that it encourages you
00:28:42.720 to see yourself
00:28:43.360 as helpless.
00:28:43.720 As a victim.
00:28:45.380 And you know why
00:28:46.000 that's popular right now?
00:28:47.360 You know why the government
00:28:48.100 is condoning that
00:28:49.980 or like even prioritizing that?
00:28:51.700 Because that means
00:28:52.280 they're going to ask
00:28:52.820 the government for help.
00:28:53.800 And then the government
00:28:54.480 has more power.
00:28:55.420 More control.
00:28:57.180 Let's take a communism.
00:28:57.920 It's literally
00:28:59.100 how communism happens.
00:29:00.480 I need help.
00:29:00.940 I need help.
00:29:01.280 I don't have anything.
00:29:01.820 I can't do anything.
00:29:02.620 The only answer
00:29:03.580 is the government
00:29:04.040 helping me.
00:29:05.120 Which is interesting
00:29:05.740 that it would be happening
00:29:06.520 in a country like America
00:29:07.660 because you're
00:29:08.580 Very anti-communist
00:29:10.240 as a nation.
00:29:10.860 It's not even about
00:29:11.400 anti-communist.
00:29:12.860 It's the very foundation
00:29:14.720 of your society
00:29:15.740 is based on
00:29:16.740 the very opposite
00:29:17.620 in terms of
00:29:18.500 what you actually
00:29:19.440 it's not that you
00:29:20.420 are anti-communism
00:29:21.820 it's that the beliefs
00:29:22.720 that you used to
00:29:24.020 inculcate
00:29:24.620 in your society
00:29:25.840 were the antithesis
00:29:27.140 of communism
00:29:27.700 they were about
00:29:28.340 self-reliance
00:29:29.160 independence
00:29:29.900 go get it
00:29:31.440 make it happen
00:29:32.480 be free
00:29:33.440 make your own mistakes
00:29:34.640 by the way
00:29:35.180 The American dream
00:29:35.880 right?
00:29:36.440 You can make it
00:29:36.980 whatever you dream
00:29:38.040 you can do it
00:29:38.520 if you work hard enough
00:29:39.120 now it's the opposite
00:29:40.540 You've got a generation
00:29:41.380 of people
00:29:41.760 who are being trained
00:29:42.700 to think very differently
00:29:44.260 to that
00:29:44.700 so it's kind of
00:29:46.060 very anti-American
00:29:46.900 It is anti-American
00:29:48.060 it's sad
00:29:48.840 like we have kids
00:29:49.760 nowadays
00:29:50.120 like one of my
00:29:52.080 goddaughters
00:29:52.560 my best friend's daughter
00:29:53.660 came home
00:29:54.200 she was 12 at the time
00:29:55.680 I think
00:29:55.960 or 13
00:29:56.400 maybe two years ago
00:29:57.200 whatever it was
00:29:57.700 she came home
00:29:58.620 and my best friend
00:29:59.580 Italian girl
00:30:00.520 only dates Hispanic dudes
00:30:01.800 she doesn't like black dudes
00:30:03.380 she doesn't like white dudes
00:30:04.340 like only
00:30:04.980 like brown people
00:30:06.020 she loves brown guys
00:30:07.040 and
00:30:08.540 the kid comes home one day
00:30:10.760 and calls us white supremacists
00:30:12.120 and all these things
00:30:12.860 and I'm like
00:30:13.160 what is this kid
00:30:14.060 learning in school
00:30:14.920 like clearly
00:30:15.440 they're teaching them something
00:30:16.480 and it's like
00:30:17.540 I don't want to say the name
00:30:18.940 I was like
00:30:19.260 how are you going to
00:30:20.020 tell your mom
00:30:20.600 she's a white supremacist
00:30:21.200 she only dates brown guys
00:30:22.720 your father's a brown guy
00:30:25.680 I treat you the same
00:30:26.800 as I would treat anybody else
00:30:27.920 and I knew you were brown
00:30:29.260 she's El Salvadorian
00:30:30.980 since you were a little
00:30:31.540 like
00:30:31.780 you don't
00:30:32.740 you pass as brown
00:30:33.800 like you don't look white at all
00:30:34.700 you don't look half white
00:30:35.340 you look brown
00:30:35.980 and nobody treats you
00:30:38.140 any differently
00:30:38.560 but we're white supremacists
00:30:40.160 so they're clearly teaching
00:30:41.580 these kids something
00:30:42.240 like you said
00:30:42.680 why are you a white supremacist
00:30:44.180 I think we were talking
00:30:45.320 about Trump
00:30:45.720 or something
00:30:46.240 I don't remember
00:30:46.800 because I think it was
00:30:47.280 two years ago
00:30:47.780 we were talking about the election
00:30:48.840 you're a white supremacist
00:30:51.060 and blah blah blah
00:30:51.660 and I'm like
00:30:52.240 you need to stop
00:30:53.220 because you don't know
00:30:54.180 what the hell
00:30:54.420 you're talking about
00:30:54.920 and I like
00:30:57.000 most of the time
00:30:58.000 most of the girls
00:30:58.700 I date are Hispanic
00:30:59.520 so like am I
00:31:00.840 like a brown supremacist
00:31:02.200 like
00:31:02.380 I just
00:31:03.720 we throw these labels around
00:31:06.240 I know
00:31:06.500 and we forget how
00:31:07.680 what an awful thing
00:31:09.400 that is to be
00:31:10.340 right
00:31:10.800 an actual racist
00:31:12.040 that's an awful thing
00:31:12.860 exactly
00:31:12.940 there's a guy called
00:31:14.980 this black guy
00:31:16.400 that I follow on Twitter
00:31:17.520 do you know him
00:31:17.980 Zeke
00:31:18.280 the black cop
00:31:19.140 I love him
00:31:20.060 he's great
00:31:20.520 and he talks about it
00:31:21.720 he talked about it
00:31:22.280 in one of my videos
00:31:22.840 and he said
00:31:23.320 listen my granddad
00:31:24.200 actually experienced
00:31:25.040 depression
00:31:25.400 I actually experienced
00:31:26.140 racism
00:31:26.540 in like 1930s and 40s
00:31:27.780 whatever it was
00:31:28.120 and he's like
00:31:29.880 he told me
00:31:30.700 this is what he said
00:31:31.380 to me on the camera
00:31:31.900 he was like
00:31:32.220 he told me
00:31:32.800 do not overuse
00:31:33.960 that word racist
00:31:34.640 because it diminishes
00:31:36.040 what actual people
00:31:37.300 like my grandfather
00:31:38.040 like what he experienced
00:31:40.120 he's like
00:31:41.160 I never use that word
00:31:42.160 he's like
00:31:42.680 it's very
00:31:43.160 and he calls people out
00:31:44.280 on Twitter all the time
00:31:44.980 he's like
00:31:45.340 don't you know
00:31:45.940 it's like
00:31:46.740 this is not racist
00:31:47.580 somebody asked
00:31:48.580 like they liked your haircut
00:31:50.040 and you call
00:31:50.540 oh I like your braids
00:31:53.060 that's racist
00:31:53.660 what
00:31:54.520 or you want to wear braids
00:31:56.500 and that's cultural appropriations
00:31:57.820 racism
00:31:58.260 he's like
00:31:58.980 you need to come
00:31:59.680 he calls out people all the time
00:32:01.460 I love him
00:32:02.140 we need more people like that
00:32:03.540 it's
00:32:05.400 I know
00:32:06.140 it's
00:32:06.440 it just feels
00:32:08.140 it's all exhausting
00:32:09.280 it really is
00:32:10.000 but it just feels
00:32:11.120 like a society
00:32:11.900 that's gone mad
00:32:12.700 that's what happens
00:32:14.820 when you don't
00:32:16.240 have any
00:32:16.720 personal responsibility
00:32:17.820 because you can
00:32:18.880 even if you're going crazy
00:32:20.040 you could blame it
00:32:20.660 on anything else
00:32:21.300 blame it on everything else
00:32:23.180 anything else
00:32:23.740 other than yourself
00:32:24.320 right
00:32:24.640 because when you were crazy
00:32:27.040 back in the day
00:32:27.760 who are you going to blame
00:32:28.680 oh shit
00:32:30.700 it's me
00:32:31.160 I don't want that to happen
00:32:32.840 so I'm going to
00:32:33.360 like me
00:32:33.800 I went to get help
00:32:34.720 for my mental health
00:32:35.420 my anxiety
00:32:36.000 I'm on medication
00:32:37.040 yeah
00:32:37.500 and it wasn't crazy
00:32:39.100 but like
00:32:39.680 now
00:32:40.760 you can have all these
00:32:42.200 mental illnesses
00:32:42.800 and it's like
00:32:43.720 people are flaunting them
00:32:44.680 and it's like
00:32:45.080 it's not
00:32:45.820 it's not something
00:32:46.980 to be ashamed of
00:32:47.620 but it's also not
00:32:48.500 something to be proud of
00:32:49.240 it's just
00:32:49.540 it is what it is
00:32:50.260 something to work on
00:32:51.140 it's something to fix yourself
00:32:52.180 right
00:32:52.440 something to help yourself
00:32:53.420 right
00:32:53.700 exactly
00:32:54.360 and you people
00:32:55.120 I see it in their bio
00:32:56.280 bipolar
00:32:57.140 ADHD
00:32:57.920 and look
00:32:58.400 these are you know
00:32:59.140 serious conditions
00:33:00.020 some more serious than others
00:33:01.240 but it's not your
00:33:02.280 fucking identity
00:33:03.180 it's not your identity
00:33:04.120 yeah
00:33:04.900 and Marcus and I
00:33:06.760 were talking about this yesterday
00:33:07.660 they don't have an identity
00:33:10.480 that's what it is
00:33:11.560 because none of these words
00:33:13.060 actually mean anything anymore
00:33:14.200 so they're just
00:33:15.220 they're grabbing at these labels
00:33:16.980 and these identities
00:33:17.580 and these words
00:33:18.140 that have no meaning
00:33:19.400 just because they can't
00:33:21.520 it's like they don't know
00:33:22.620 how to develop a personality
00:33:23.620 because you know what
00:33:24.660 most personalities are developed
00:33:26.020 based on opinions
00:33:27.600 of the world
00:33:28.740 and these people all think the same
00:33:30.400 so they have to have
00:33:32.380 differences in their identities
00:33:34.100 to be seen as different
00:33:35.660 even though they all think the same
00:33:36.800 but that's a great thing
00:33:38.800 that this particular ideology
00:33:40.000 gives you
00:33:40.660 it just gives you
00:33:42.260 a list of opinions
00:33:44.240 which come
00:33:45.080 to believe in
00:33:45.400 yeah
00:33:45.620 which is a cult
00:33:47.120 by the way
00:33:47.720 okay let's start
00:33:49.260 let's go with that then
00:33:50.040 it's a cult
00:33:50.620 why
00:33:51.420 like literally
00:33:52.760 just what you said
00:33:53.360 this is what you have to believe
00:33:54.820 in order to be a part
00:33:55.680 of our group
00:33:56.400 and the moment you don't
00:33:57.540 the oppression group
00:33:58.100 and the moment you don't believe that
00:33:59.840 bye
00:34:01.300 bye girl
00:34:02.040 bitch
00:34:02.380 bye bitch
00:34:02.880 like that's it
00:34:03.560 you get excommunicated
00:34:04.520 from the
00:34:04.840 I always use that word
00:34:05.660 but it's like a religion
00:34:06.640 that's why I say excommunicated
00:34:07.920 it's literally like
00:34:08.840 a cult is like a religion
00:34:09.780 and how have you found this
00:34:11.080 because you're obviously
00:34:11.840 a public figure in some way
00:34:13.800 you know
00:34:14.080 on YouTube
00:34:14.620 you've got a big following
00:34:15.580 so people will know
00:34:17.040 who you are
00:34:17.720 in the
00:34:18.480 I mean
00:34:19.180 this idea of the LGBT community
00:34:21.540 is a thing I question
00:34:22.760 as a thing that exists anyway
00:34:24.300 but among
00:34:25.400 your people
00:34:27.280 how do they
00:34:28.140 what kind of like
00:34:29.680 reaction do you have
00:34:30.840 like Blair and I
00:34:32.240 were talking about this
00:34:32.840 when I was on her channel
00:34:34.100 and
00:34:34.720 it's different now
00:34:36.880 like before
00:34:38.360 we would go out
00:34:39.360 and people
00:34:40.200 I love
00:34:40.680 well Blair
00:34:41.200 differently
00:34:41.640 like people never liked her
00:34:42.980 well we like Blair
00:34:45.480 but
00:34:45.660 well the LGBT people
00:34:47.160 but there's like a very small
00:34:48.520 subset of the community
00:34:49.220 that loves her
00:34:49.720 just like
00:34:50.240 but for me
00:34:50.900 it was the opposite right
00:34:51.620 because I was more
00:34:52.220 on the left before
00:34:53.140 you were educating people
00:34:54.580 about being gay
00:34:55.720 you were doing sex ed
00:34:57.080 you were doing all that great stuff
00:34:58.320 and then they like
00:34:59.120 turn their backs on me
00:35:00.080 and they're claiming
00:35:00.760 that I turned my back on them
00:35:01.700 and it's like
00:35:02.100 I've had the same opinions
00:35:03.580 like for the last 12 years
00:35:04.780 but whatever
00:35:05.200 except like something
00:35:06.520 on trans issues
00:35:07.240 like I became more left
00:35:08.680 and then some things
00:35:09.360 I became more right
00:35:10.100 depending on what new information
00:35:11.480 comes out right
00:35:12.120 but I think
00:35:14.580 for the most part
00:35:16.220 now
00:35:17.940 like where before
00:35:19.380 people would come
00:35:20.320 come up to me
00:35:20.900 and like cry
00:35:21.500 and like when they met me
00:35:22.400 at like VidCon
00:35:22.960 now I don't get invited
00:35:23.820 not surprised
00:35:25.560 but like now
00:35:26.780 it's
00:35:27.380 I remember I was at
00:35:28.200 Rhode Island Pride
00:35:28.880 and a bunch of
00:35:30.440 there was like
00:35:30.740 two or three girls
00:35:31.380 together in a group
00:35:32.140 and one of the girls
00:35:32.720 came up to me
00:35:33.280 and she just stood next to me
00:35:34.380 didn't actually look at me
00:35:35.420 I'm not even making this up
00:35:36.760 stood next to me
00:35:37.540 and was like
00:35:37.860 love your content
00:35:38.460 and then walked away
00:35:40.600 and I was like
00:35:41.040 what just happened
00:35:41.800 like
00:35:42.120 what was that
00:35:43.140 because she was afraid
00:35:44.160 that other people
00:35:44.660 would see her
00:35:45.000 interacting with me
00:35:45.720 that's so sad
00:35:47.140 you can't even like
00:35:48.500 like somebody's content
00:35:49.720 anymore without being
00:35:50.400 called a bigot
00:35:50.940 can't even follow them
00:35:52.640 on Twitter
00:35:53.580 I know that feeling
00:35:55.000 very well
00:35:55.420 because I don't know
00:35:56.440 if you know this
00:35:56.920 Francis and I
00:35:57.660 before we started this
00:35:59.280 we were in the comedy
00:36:00.340 industry in this country
00:36:01.520 and it's about
00:36:03.120 it's about like
00:36:04.240 200 people
00:36:05.060 or 300 people
00:36:05.780 it's a small world
00:36:06.680 really
00:36:07.020 very small world
00:36:07.960 where everyone's
00:36:08.720 watching each other
00:36:09.600 everyone's monitoring
00:36:10.640 what everyone's thinking
00:36:11.620 what they're liking
00:36:12.460 what they're not liking
00:36:13.300 terrible
00:36:13.660 and I remember
00:36:14.300 I used to watch
00:36:15.220 so at the time
00:36:17.380 it was Dave Rubin's show
00:36:18.440 this was like
00:36:19.180 2016
00:36:19.860 2017
00:36:20.440 where he was kind of
00:36:21.420 going through
00:36:21.940 like I'm a liberal
00:36:23.160 but I'm exploring
00:36:23.980 different points of view
00:36:25.140 phase
00:36:25.620 because he is a classic
00:36:26.440 liberal
00:36:26.740 so am I
00:36:27.280 yeah
00:36:27.720 I think since then
00:36:29.340 Dave's evolved to
00:36:30.200 thinking I think he's
00:36:30.920 more squarely in the
00:36:31.840 sort of on the right
00:36:32.600 box now
00:36:33.160 but at the time
00:36:34.120 because everything's
00:36:35.000 going so far left
00:36:35.740 he's kind of staying
00:36:36.520 here so he's
00:36:37.140 yeah
00:36:37.560 yeah
00:36:37.860 same
00:36:38.180 yeah
00:36:39.400 and so at that time
00:36:40.720 I found his show
00:36:41.400 very interesting
00:36:42.000 because it was kind of
00:36:42.800 the journey I was
00:36:43.560 going through mentally
00:36:44.260 myself
00:36:44.760 yes
00:36:45.180 and I would watch it
00:36:46.360 I think it took me
00:36:47.760 two years
00:36:48.540 to actually subscribe
00:36:50.100 to his YouTube channel
00:36:51.360 and to like his face
00:36:53.160 because I was afraid
00:36:54.100 wow
00:36:54.680 as a grown man
00:36:56.740 you see how
00:36:57.340 yeah
00:36:57.640 and people are shocked
00:36:58.880 when we're talking
00:36:59.460 about these kids
00:37:00.080 it's like you're a grown man
00:37:01.020 you're afraid
00:37:01.500 yeah
00:37:01.880 my friend
00:37:02.860 my friend was texting me
00:37:03.980 before he was afraid
00:37:04.900 he's afraid
00:37:05.380 he's a trans guy
00:37:06.080 he's afraid to talk
00:37:06.580 about these things
00:37:07.040 yeah
00:37:07.260 because I knew
00:37:08.100 we both knew
00:37:09.060 look at us
00:37:09.600 we started the show
00:37:10.400 and all we do
00:37:11.020 is we talk to people
00:37:11.840 about some of these issues
00:37:13.100 just and I love
00:37:14.060 by the way
00:37:15.100 the no filter
00:37:15.740 conversation we're having
00:37:17.080 it's great
00:37:17.620 right
00:37:18.060 and that's what we
00:37:18.660 always wanted this to be
00:37:19.740 and we get people
00:37:20.660 we just
00:37:20.980 the guy we put out
00:37:22.240 two days ago
00:37:23.860 is David Pakman
00:37:24.560 who's like a progressive
00:37:25.440 commentator on YouTube
00:37:26.980 we had that conversation
00:37:28.700 and we get people
00:37:29.400 from the left
00:37:29.940 we get people
00:37:30.560 on the right
00:37:31.420 we get mostly people
00:37:32.440 like you
00:37:32.800 who are just like
00:37:33.320 what the fuck's going on
00:37:34.440 right
00:37:35.120 because most people
00:37:35.880 are there
00:37:36.420 well we are
00:37:37.360 like evil right wing
00:37:38.700 naughty bigots
00:37:40.220 in the comedy industry
00:37:41.220 in this country
00:37:41.760 right
00:37:42.040 and I don't give a shit
00:37:43.080 about that
00:37:43.520 but at the time
00:37:44.480 when it mattered
00:37:45.540 what people thought
00:37:46.460 when they had
00:37:47.200 opportunity to limit
00:37:48.300 my work
00:37:49.280 my progression
00:37:50.300 in the comedy industry
00:37:51.300 yeah
00:37:51.920 yeah I was terrified
00:37:52.980 of course
00:37:54.200 I don't think
00:37:54.640 it's wrong
00:37:55.280 to be scared
00:37:55.860 it's just sad
00:37:56.640 it is
00:37:57.260 it's terrible
00:37:58.080 it makes sense
00:37:58.900 and also
00:37:59.540 the thing as well
00:38:00.220 is like
00:38:00.620 maybe
00:38:01.340 in my head
00:38:02.400 I was actually
00:38:03.180 exaggerating
00:38:03.960 the extent
00:38:04.500 to which
00:38:04.980 I was right
00:38:05.700 to be fearful
00:38:06.340 but the atmosphere
00:38:08.020 is still there
00:38:09.080 right
00:38:09.680 and if people
00:38:10.200 yeah but now
00:38:10.500 you've risen above it
00:38:11.660 a little
00:38:11.820 we have
00:38:12.320 but what I'm talking
00:38:13.020 about is this girl
00:38:13.680 that came up to you
00:38:14.500 imagine what it's like
00:38:15.720 for her
00:38:16.200 right
00:38:16.520 right
00:38:16.840 because it's not
00:38:17.780 even she's in an industry
00:38:18.920 where she might be
00:38:19.760 forced out
00:38:20.380 she's in a community too
00:38:21.780 she's like
00:38:22.280 that's her identity
00:38:23.240 that's the whole thing
00:38:24.120 right
00:38:24.340 this is the people
00:38:25.000 she dates
00:38:25.520 this is the people
00:38:26.260 she's gonna
00:38:27.060 yes
00:38:27.580 it's the whole
00:38:28.460 that's their whole livelihood
00:38:29.200 and you like
00:38:30.340 an Ariel Scarcella video
00:38:31.580 on YouTube
00:38:32.020 like
00:38:32.440 oh you follow her
00:38:33.780 on Twitter
00:38:34.180 you like the tweet
00:38:35.120 yeah
00:38:35.420 done
00:38:36.160 sometimes I like tweets
00:38:37.480 that I don't actually like
00:38:38.620 because I want to
00:38:39.800 it's like
00:38:40.260 you know
00:38:40.940 I want to look
00:38:41.740 like if it's a video
00:38:42.660 or something
00:38:42.920 I don't have time
00:38:43.400 to watch it
00:38:43.940 I'll watch it later
00:38:44.680 so I'll like it
00:38:45.320 so it's in my like
00:38:46.060 right
00:38:46.340 so I can save it
00:38:47.140 it's just all too much
00:38:50.500 it's too much
00:38:51.120 it is
00:38:51.480 it's also manipulative behavior
00:38:53.300 right
00:38:53.560 it's toxic
00:38:54.880 abusive behavior
00:38:56.580 it's like an abusive
00:38:57.740 boyfriend or girlfriend
00:38:58.460 looking over your shoulder
00:38:59.160 who are you texting
00:38:59.640 who are you talking to
00:39:00.300 why are you going out
00:39:01.180 with this person
00:39:01.680 literally
00:39:02.500 if there wasn't a relationship
00:39:03.840 people would be obvious
00:39:05.460 it's obvious
00:39:06.220 that it's abusive
00:39:06.780 but it's because
00:39:07.460 it's co-workers
00:39:08.580 or friendships
00:39:09.120 or just people
00:39:09.620 you're following
00:39:10.140 or whatever
00:39:10.520 they don't call it abusive
00:39:12.000 it's literally
00:39:12.960 the same thing happening
00:39:13.760 but they also
00:39:16.720 and this to me
00:39:17.640 is a really sinister thing
00:39:19.120 because if it was just that
00:39:20.340 it's obviously disgusting
00:39:21.360 awful
00:39:21.640 reprehensible
00:39:22.200 blah blah blah
00:39:22.700 but they frame it
00:39:24.300 as kindness
00:39:25.100 yeah
00:39:25.660 and that's a thing
00:39:27.160 that really
00:39:28.100 manipulation
00:39:28.640 that's the manipulative part
00:39:29.960 right
00:39:30.160 yeah
00:39:30.400 it's for your benefit
00:39:31.880 yeah
00:39:32.400 it's for your benefit
00:39:33.180 you know we have a friend of ours
00:39:34.340 who's a very good comic
00:39:35.340 who during lockdown
00:39:38.140 he was tweeting his concerns
00:39:40.420 about the impact of lockdown
00:39:41.660 on people's lives
00:39:42.480 and all of that
00:39:43.440 and another comedian
00:39:45.440 these are both black dudes
00:39:46.760 by the way
00:39:47.160 and this is relevant
00:39:47.820 to the story
00:39:48.340 when he said
00:39:50.620 your tweets are looking
00:39:51.680 the optics of your tweets
00:39:53.440 are very right wing lately
00:39:55.020 he said that to you?
00:39:56.280 no he said it to our friend
00:39:57.420 one black guy
00:39:58.900 said it to another black guy
00:39:59.720 to another black guy
00:40:00.440 the optics of your tweets
00:40:01.840 are very right wing lately
00:40:04.100 okay
00:40:04.460 right
00:40:05.360 so it's basically saying
00:40:07.160 like stay on the reservation
00:40:08.640 right
00:40:09.060 are you okay?
00:40:09.780 yeah are you okay?
00:40:10.240 are you gonna be alright?
00:40:11.260 yeah I'm worried about you
00:40:12.420 I'm worried about you
00:40:13.100 but that's not what he's worried about
00:40:14.160 no
00:40:14.420 he's trying to go
00:40:15.560 don't have these opinions
00:40:17.800 right
00:40:18.080 he's trying to reel them in
00:40:18.820 right
00:40:18.980 you know
00:40:19.420 abuse
00:40:20.420 it's abuse
00:40:21.060 literally abusive behavior
00:40:23.040 like textbook
00:40:23.980 psychological definition of abuse
00:40:25.720 control and manipulation
00:40:27.060 and nobody calls it out
00:40:29.800 there's like five of us
00:40:30.660 that call it out
00:40:31.280 it's sad
00:40:32.640 and it's the word right wing
00:40:34.300 which doesn't mean
00:40:35.400 like you know
00:40:36.280 what is the true explanation
00:40:37.840 of the words right wing?
00:40:39.100 it means
00:40:39.420 small government
00:40:40.820 small government
00:40:41.380 lower taxes
00:40:42.060 lower taxes
00:40:43.060 less government involvement
00:40:43.960 right
00:40:44.280 yeah
00:40:44.520 less intervention
00:40:45.300 right
00:40:45.780 by the government
00:40:46.400 in your lives
00:40:47.220 now there are trade-offs with that
00:40:48.660 there's positives
00:40:49.200 and there's negatives
00:40:50.040 of course
00:40:50.380 and if you adhere to that
00:40:51.540 particular type of
00:40:52.500 political belief
00:40:53.760 ideology
00:40:54.220 great
00:40:54.880 there's nothing wrong with it
00:40:55.760 it's not my view
00:40:56.580 they're not my politics
00:40:57.980 but they
00:40:58.620 there's a validity to it
00:41:00.200 right
00:41:00.640 but right wing now
00:41:02.180 doesn't mean that
00:41:03.200 oh no
00:41:03.820 it doesn't mean that anymore
00:41:04.480 it means this whole other identity
00:41:06.100 that they throw you
00:41:06.700 which is funny
00:41:07.500 because they're like
00:41:07.980 don't tell me how to identify
00:41:09.160 but they're throwing all these identities on you
00:41:11.020 well I've been saying this
00:41:12.000 just because you feel a certain way about government
00:41:13.860 you must be a Nazi
00:41:14.960 you must be a white supremacist
00:41:15.860 I've been saying this for years
00:41:16.740 you can be non-binary in every way
00:41:18.820 except politically
00:41:19.760 except politically
00:41:21.760 literally I've never met
00:41:22.640 I have one friend that
00:41:24.300 he's not really non-binary
00:41:25.700 that's the thing
00:41:26.280 he's had trauma
00:41:27.740 so he has dysphoria
00:41:29.200 but not like full dysphoria
00:41:30.220 he's the only non-binary
00:41:32.880 like non-binary
00:41:34.160 republican that I've ever met
00:41:35.620 you are a conservative
00:41:36.740 you'll never meet a non-binary person
00:41:38.240 other than him
00:41:38.820 that's not left wing
00:41:40.780 like you said it perfectly
00:41:42.880 yeah you can be non-binary in every way
00:41:44.860 but not politically
00:41:45.580 you can't have
00:41:46.300 like me
00:41:47.200 like have an opinion
00:41:47.960 that's on the left
00:41:48.740 and on the right
00:41:49.500 and think of yourself
00:41:50.420 as someone in the middle
00:41:51.260 no no
00:41:51.600 if you've stepped over this line here
00:41:54.060 you're all the way
00:41:54.780 that's it
00:41:55.920 you're done
00:41:56.300 you're done
00:41:57.100 fucking incredible
00:41:58.340 how we've got here
00:41:59.220 it is incredible
00:42:00.340 it's sad
00:42:00.560 it really is
00:42:01.700 yeah
00:42:02.020 yeah
00:42:02.900 but that right wing label
00:42:04.720 is really powerful
00:42:05.640 because once it sticks to you
00:42:07.320 then immediately
00:42:09.220 that you're right wing
00:42:10.420 which means
00:42:11.580 particularly in my former industry
00:42:13.440 thank god I've left it
00:42:14.680 is
00:42:16.100 oh we can deny you opportunities
00:42:18.060 we can sideline you
00:42:20.060 I know in
00:42:20.760 at least in the United States
00:42:22.040 is illegal
00:42:22.580 like I don't think
00:42:24.460 you're allowed to do that
00:42:25.380 right
00:42:25.660 I'd have to ask my lawyer friend
00:42:27.440 yeah
00:42:27.860 but I'm almost positive
00:42:29.440 they cannot deny you a job
00:42:30.820 based on political beliefs
00:42:32.000 right
00:42:32.280 but how do you prove it
00:42:33.420 right
00:42:33.680 right exactly
00:42:34.400 that's the point
00:42:34.960 you can't
00:42:35.740 oh I didn't like the way you dressed
00:42:37.300 I didn't like the way you talked
00:42:38.000 to that customer
00:42:38.580 and look
00:42:39.500 we should also be grateful
00:42:40.980 I mean
00:42:41.340 that happened to my friend David
00:42:42.180 he got fired
00:42:42.700 because he was posting
00:42:44.180 political stuff online
00:42:45.060 yeah
00:42:45.520 but we should also be grateful
00:42:47.220 because we're coming off
00:42:47.980 as a bunch of whiners now
00:42:49.060 like
00:42:49.280 reality is
00:42:50.740 you know
00:42:51.840 we have it better than half
00:42:52.660 more than half of the world
00:42:53.720 I know
00:42:54.440 I know
00:42:54.840 yeah
00:42:55.200 but we don't want to see that go away
00:42:56.240 that's why we complain about it
00:42:57.440 yeah
00:42:57.680 yeah
00:42:58.020 and also individually
00:42:59.540 like all of us are doing okay
00:43:01.080 do you know what
00:43:01.540 like we've made a principal stand
00:43:03.420 and it cost us in the short term
00:43:04.760 but in the long term
00:43:05.740 I agree
00:43:06.180 we've been rewarded for it
00:43:06.940 because the truth is
00:43:07.860 these people know
00:43:09.080 that this is only going to benefit them
00:43:10.320 in the short term as well
00:43:11.020 they know
00:43:11.900 but they're afraid
00:43:12.620 because
00:43:13.060 the short term
00:43:14.460 people only see it
00:43:15.400 in the now
00:43:15.700 right
00:43:16.020 like what's going to benefit
00:43:17.220 benefit me right now
00:43:18.380 yeah
00:43:18.640 and then okay
00:43:19.580 is being woke
00:43:20.280 they're going to do that
00:43:21.100 but they know
00:43:23.360 they don't believe
00:43:23.820 in half the shit they say
00:43:24.740 most people like you said
00:43:27.060 we're in the middle
00:43:27.560 yeah
00:43:28.120 we're somewhere in the middle
00:43:29.180 nobody
00:43:29.940 there's not that many extremists
00:43:31.300 in this country
00:43:31.980 it's really not
00:43:32.680 in the world
00:43:33.300 really not
00:43:34.240 everyone kind of
00:43:35.920 as long as you're traveling
00:43:37.460 and you're getting to know
00:43:38.260 people of other cultures
00:43:39.000 you can see from both perspectives
00:43:40.420 usually
00:43:40.860 hey Francis
00:43:43.420 what do you think
00:43:44.460 is the best way
00:43:45.340 to advertise a business
00:43:46.640 that's easy
00:43:47.620 all you need to do
00:43:49.140 is spend shed loads of cash
00:43:50.760 on an advert
00:43:51.460 that's going to be promoted
00:43:52.680 on a dying medium like TV
00:43:54.560 then simply sit back
00:43:56.240 and watch all your hard-earned money
00:43:58.160 disappear down the toilet
00:43:59.640 what about advertising
00:44:00.920 with trigonometry
00:44:01.560 why would I do that
00:44:03.060 when I can advertise
00:44:04.000 on ITV3
00:44:05.480 for the measly sum of
00:44:07.120 20 grand
00:44:08.140 and be watched
00:44:09.040 by six people
00:44:10.180 because trigonometry
00:44:11.400 now has over
00:44:12.100 350,000 subscribers
00:44:13.960 across the different platforms
00:44:15.260 and gets 2 million views
00:44:16.560 and downloads a month
00:44:17.420 that's right
00:44:18.360 you can place an advert
00:44:19.660 with us
00:44:20.240 and we'll promote
00:44:21.240 your brand
00:44:21.980 on one of our episodes
00:44:23.160 your advert
00:44:23.760 will be written
00:44:24.440 by two professional comedians
00:44:26.080 yeah that's right
00:44:26.880 we're hiring
00:44:27.480 two professional comedians
00:44:29.140 where we make our ads funny
00:44:32.400 and engaging to the point
00:44:33.760 where some people say
00:44:34.840 the ads are their favourite
00:44:36.000 parts of the show
00:44:37.060 yeah we probably
00:44:37.840 shouldn't admit that mate
00:44:38.840 all you need to do
00:44:40.200 is contact us
00:44:41.180 on marketing
00:44:41.800 at triggerpod.co.uk
00:44:44.020 that's marketing
00:44:45.240 at triggerpod.co.uk
00:44:47.860 advertise with us
00:44:49.180 and we'll get
00:44:49.860 your business cancelled
00:44:51.100 but the reason
00:44:54.560 we have got a large
00:44:55.540 following both of us
00:44:56.500 is because
00:44:57.140 we do give voice
00:44:58.500 to the things
00:44:59.240 that people feel
00:45:00.420 that they are unable
00:45:01.020 to give voice to
00:45:01.840 in their jobs
00:45:03.260 that's it
00:45:03.600 yes
00:45:03.880 amongst their friends
00:45:04.920 so I mean
00:45:06.340 this is a sad story
00:45:07.740 I had a friend
00:45:08.840 who was a comedian
00:45:09.420 and he passed away
00:45:10.340 and he was very ill
00:45:11.580 and when he was going
00:45:12.880 through the late stage
00:45:13.820 of his illness
00:45:14.260 we used to talk
00:45:14.960 on Facebook
00:45:15.520 on Facebook Messenger
00:45:16.520 when he was getting
00:45:17.020 his treatment
00:45:17.460 and he messaged me
00:45:19.680 and he said
00:45:20.160 I love trigonometry
00:45:21.540 I can never do
00:45:22.880 what you do Francis
00:45:23.780 because I'm not as brave
00:45:24.680 as you
00:45:25.020 I went what do you mean
00:45:26.400 and he goes
00:45:27.000 I love your interviews
00:45:28.780 and you know
00:45:29.440 I've got books
00:45:30.100 by Douglas Murray
00:45:31.060 and other people
00:45:31.780 but when they come
00:45:33.100 round to my house
00:45:33.940 when my friends
00:45:34.520 come round to my house
00:45:34.940 yeah when my friends
00:45:36.000 come round to my house
00:45:36.740 he hides the books
00:45:37.120 he hides the books
00:45:38.120 wow
00:45:39.200 and when he passed away
00:45:42.020 I saw everybody
00:45:43.120 talk about him
00:45:44.600 and go
00:45:45.200 oh you know
00:45:46.680 what a great guy
00:45:47.440 this person was
00:45:48.200 how nice they were
00:45:49.520 blah blah blah
00:45:50.220 so they didn't know
00:45:51.060 what he really thought
00:45:51.820 they didn't know him
00:45:52.520 that's so
00:45:53.140 that's like going to
00:45:54.080 that's okay
00:45:55.060 in my opinion
00:45:55.680 I don't want to
00:45:57.000 compare it completely
00:45:57.720 but to me
00:45:58.800 that would be almost
00:45:59.580 like hiding that
00:46:01.720 you're gay
00:46:02.080 your whole life
00:46:02.740 and people not knowing
00:46:04.000 your truth
00:46:04.660 that's so sad
00:46:05.880 it's like you said
00:46:06.080 coming out of the closet
00:46:06.920 yeah
00:46:07.340 yeah
00:46:07.700 well that's why they say
00:46:09.260 when did you come
00:46:10.360 we're second coming out
00:46:11.320 we call it
00:46:11.780 coming out as a conservative
00:46:12.720 or coming out as a non-leftist
00:46:14.100 like that's what we say
00:46:15.520 because it's the truth
00:46:16.440 because in the same
00:46:17.800 in the same way
00:46:18.640 that you can lose
00:46:19.420 your job
00:46:20.140 in some places
00:46:20.840 but not like
00:46:21.380 not a lot of places anymore
00:46:22.160 you could lose your job
00:46:23.180 your family
00:46:23.820 your status for being gay
00:46:25.180 you can also lose those things
00:46:26.400 for being conservative
00:46:27.400 that's why we call it
00:46:28.440 coming out
00:46:28.900 second coming out
00:46:30.360 because it's stupid
00:46:32.220 but you can lose
00:46:32.860 all those things again
00:46:33.680 are you conservative
00:46:35.520 or are you just non-leftist
00:46:36.900 I like
00:46:38.860 if I asked my friends
00:46:39.820 that are conservatives
00:46:40.460 they would say
00:46:41.440 I was moderate
00:46:42.100 I think
00:46:43.160 I have some conservative views
00:46:44.880 and I have some moderate views
00:46:46.160 right
00:46:46.500 which really like
00:46:49.100 just a classic liberal
00:46:50.100 I think
00:46:50.720 like don't tell me
00:46:51.360 how to live my life
00:46:51.960 don't get involved
00:46:52.900 in my money
00:46:54.020 like don't take my money
00:46:55.060 don't tell me
00:46:56.100 how to raise my kids
00:46:57.200 type of thing
00:46:57.920 if I had kids
00:46:58.440 right
00:46:58.680 that's like
00:47:00.360 that's like a classic liberal
00:47:01.320 like if it's not hurting anybody
00:47:03.060 let me do it
00:47:03.880 classic liberal
00:47:05.060 but conservative
00:47:06.640 on certain issues
00:47:07.380 the wall
00:47:08.140 pro build the wall
00:47:09.260 but I'm pro choice
00:47:11.360 like
00:47:11.660 I'm in the middle
00:47:12.920 with a lot of issues
00:47:13.580 and it might change over time
00:47:14.880 like it's already changed
00:47:15.860 over time
00:47:16.340 but that's normal
00:47:17.460 because new information
00:47:18.340 comes out
00:47:18.980 what have you changed
00:47:20.320 your mind on the most
00:47:21.120 probably economically
00:47:26.240 I think
00:47:26.800 I've become
00:47:27.720 I've become way more conservative
00:47:28.920 yeah
00:47:29.280 and when you say
00:47:30.720 way more conservative
00:47:31.620 what does that mean
00:47:32.440 well to me
00:47:33.440 like in the states
00:47:34.480 to me that means
00:47:35.300 not aiding other countries
00:47:37.280 as much
00:47:37.900 before we help ourselves
00:47:39.340 right
00:47:39.720 like there's so many problems
00:47:41.020 in the states
00:47:41.680 that we have to fix
00:47:42.540 so many homeless kids
00:47:44.180 so many homeless people
00:47:45.200 homeless veterans
00:47:45.700 all these things
00:47:46.320 the cops
00:47:47.400 aren't getting paid as much
00:47:48.740 and now there's
00:47:49.520 all these police brutality
00:47:50.580 like fix those issues
00:47:52.580 excuse me
00:47:53.560 before you're trying to
00:47:55.280 give the Ukraine
00:47:56.500 100 million dollars
00:47:57.520 or whatever it was
00:47:58.100 like
00:47:58.280 it's a lot more than that
00:47:59.820 more
00:48:00.140 was it 400 million
00:48:01.020 or whatever it was
00:48:01.500 no it's many many
00:48:02.900 it's like 33 billion
00:48:04.060 whatever it was
00:48:04.800 I could argue with you
00:48:06.300 about that
00:48:06.740 because
00:48:07.140 American prosperity
00:48:08.680 depends on its influence
00:48:10.120 and power around the world
00:48:11.300 but I get your point
00:48:12.440 which is
00:48:12.980 I think your point broadly
00:48:14.840 is
00:48:15.180 the United States
00:48:16.460 should make sure
00:48:17.120 to look after its own citizens
00:48:18.420 right
00:48:18.700 before it does anything else
00:48:20.460 that's the point
00:48:20.720 that's the point
00:48:21.480 I understand economically
00:48:23.260 yes
00:48:23.620 it needs to be controlled
00:48:24.860 it needs to control
00:48:25.720 all the things
00:48:26.020 I get that
00:48:27.060 America consumes
00:48:29.180 a hugely disproportionate
00:48:31.660 amount of the world's resources
00:48:33.060 right
00:48:33.580 as do we here in the UK
00:48:35.220 and part of the reason for that
00:48:36.740 is you have control
00:48:37.880 over the whole world
00:48:38.640 and that's where
00:48:39.660 you know
00:48:40.240 the Ukraine thing
00:48:41.000 is a bit more complex than that
00:48:41.980 but I know exactly what you're saying
00:48:43.100 but you know what I'm trying to say
00:48:43.860 I know exactly what you're saying
00:48:44.820 I'm not trying to like
00:48:45.340 comment on the UK
00:48:45.980 I haven't made a video about it
00:48:47.740 because there's no way
00:48:48.700 I can actually understand about it
00:48:49.640 that's why I was asking you
00:48:50.380 it's just curious
00:48:50.800 because
00:48:51.100 and this is the thing
00:48:52.160 there will be people that go
00:48:52.900 oh she doesn't
00:48:53.600 she doesn't
00:48:54.800 we're human beings
00:48:56.500 we're going through life
00:48:57.620 and we're trying to work things out
00:48:58.620 and this is not your area of expertise
00:48:59.960 no
00:49:00.320 right
00:49:00.780 so
00:49:01.280 I don't feel
00:49:02.680 any sort of like
00:49:03.860 oh my gosh
00:49:04.460 you said this about it at all
00:49:05.620 but I think
00:49:06.600 I hear what you're saying
00:49:07.440 which is
00:49:07.900 a country should look after
00:49:09.680 its own people
00:49:10.340 yes
00:49:10.860 first
00:49:11.440 especially because we're the ones
00:49:12.740 that paid the taxes
00:49:13.460 and stuff
00:49:13.780 like if you're paying more taxes
00:49:15.580 especially
00:49:16.080 why are all these immigrants
00:49:17.760 coming in and get
00:49:18.500 like I saw this first hand
00:49:19.880 from living
00:49:20.580 born and raised in New York
00:49:21.680 and it's funny
00:49:23.380 funnily enough
00:49:24.760 I know a lot of people say
00:49:25.860 oh it's the black people
00:49:26.720 it's literally not
00:49:27.720 black people
00:49:28.700 that are taking advantage of this
00:49:29.620 you don't want to hear this
00:49:31.460 but
00:49:32.220 it's a lot of
00:49:33.720 it's a lot of Chinese people
00:49:34.720 a lot of Russian people
00:49:35.320 in New York
00:49:36.320 that are taking advantage
00:49:37.600 of like social security
00:49:38.900 and stuff like that
00:49:39.580 that are not from there
00:49:40.640 that have more
00:49:42.040 they had more benefits
00:49:42.900 than I did as an American citizen
00:49:44.100 more health benefits
00:49:45.380 like I had to go to the doctor
00:49:46.720 I had to pay $300
00:49:47.420 for a visit sometimes
00:49:48.540 they got for free
00:49:49.280 yeah
00:49:49.820 so to me I was
00:49:50.600 I was growing up
00:49:51.240 I'm thinking that's not fair
00:49:52.140 they just come to this country
00:49:53.760 and get all these
00:49:54.440 and again economically
00:49:55.720 I don't know how it works exactly
00:49:57.140 but I know it doesn't seem fair
00:49:58.680 so like what
00:50:00.380 where is that coming from
00:50:01.480 yeah that makes sense
00:50:03.380 it's a lot of issues
00:50:03.900 it's a lot of issues
00:50:04.600 but this is
00:50:05.400 these are things
00:50:06.280 that the left
00:50:06.920 don't want to discuss
00:50:08.520 right
00:50:08.980 because when it comes to immigration
00:50:10.200 they want a particular narrative
00:50:12.700 right
00:50:13.100 that they all would adhere to
00:50:14.380 they don't want to actually talk
00:50:16.260 about the complexities
00:50:17.140 of what it means
00:50:18.320 to have
00:50:19.240 a large immigrant population
00:50:20.980 coming in
00:50:21.540 right
00:50:21.800 as with all of these things
00:50:23.260 there are numerous benefits
00:50:24.520 and there are negatives
00:50:26.280 there are trade-offs
00:50:27.280 right
00:50:27.660 but they're not prepared
00:50:28.540 to have an honest discussion
00:50:29.460 about that
00:50:30.000 no
00:50:30.300 because they want to be called bigots
00:50:32.140 and racist
00:50:33.180 they're afraid of their own people
00:50:35.080 like it
00:50:36.700 like they're
00:50:37.280 they're miserable people
00:50:38.460 if you look at them
00:50:39.220 like we made a joke
00:50:40.900 about this a while ago
00:50:41.700 who was it
00:50:42.240 a friend of mine and I
00:50:43.440 like conservatives
00:50:45.040 literally are like
00:50:46.040 more attractive
00:50:46.560 I know that sounds
00:50:48.420 stupid to say
00:50:49.320 but for the most part
00:50:50.580 it's true
00:50:50.880 not because they're
00:50:51.580 actually more attractive
00:50:52.500 like physically or something
00:50:53.700 but because the energy
00:50:55.200 like liberals
00:50:57.060 are all
00:50:57.500 like
00:50:57.760 not liberals
00:50:58.820 leftists
00:50:59.500 are always angry
00:51:01.440 about something
00:51:02.840 they're always miserable
00:51:03.920 like that's not
00:51:05.380 an attractive quality
00:51:06.420 to have
00:51:06.860 so
00:51:08.480 I think you're talking about
00:51:10.500 the activists in particular
00:51:11.800 people that we see
00:51:13.340 right
00:51:13.520 that's what I mean
00:51:14.080 the far leftists
00:51:15.120 yeah
00:51:15.300 I have
00:51:15.960 I have friends
00:51:17.020 I have a friend
00:51:17.740 who's like
00:51:19.380 pro open borders
00:51:21.000 pro like 100%
00:51:22.680 renewable energy
00:51:23.740 all of this stuff
00:51:24.480 that doesn't practically work
00:51:25.620 right
00:51:26.000 and he's a really lovely guy
00:51:27.640 and when
00:51:28.740 when you have a conversation
00:51:29.860 with him
00:51:30.300 he's like
00:51:30.840 yeah I know
00:51:31.440 it doesn't work
00:51:32.280 I know it's not practical
00:51:33.480 but I just feel good
00:51:34.960 you know
00:51:35.360 saying it
00:51:35.900 yeah I just feel good
00:51:36.580 thinking about it
00:51:37.420 you know I just
00:51:38.140 I just
00:51:38.700 I just hope we lived
00:51:40.360 in a world
00:51:40.860 where we could have
00:51:41.560 open borders
00:51:42.160 and I just hope
00:51:42.700 we lived in a world
00:51:43.320 that would be great
00:51:43.900 but that's not how
00:51:44.600 the world is
00:51:45.160 no
00:51:45.420 right
00:51:45.900 and that's always
00:51:46.720 going to be the tension
00:51:47.600 and look
00:51:48.120 by the way
00:51:48.640 there are points
00:51:49.180 in history
00:51:49.700 realistic versus idealistic
00:51:51.120 yeah but there are
00:51:51.920 points in history
00:51:52.560 where you
00:51:53.580 the conservative
00:51:54.900 side of things
00:51:55.900 it gets a little bit
00:51:57.260 too stuck
00:51:57.920 in its own ways
00:51:58.720 and you need people
00:51:59.660 who have a bigger vision
00:52:00.920 to come and just
00:52:01.680 unstuff the whole place
00:52:03.160 a little bit
00:52:03.660 you know
00:52:04.020 yes
00:52:04.460 and so this is
00:52:06.480 which are people like me
00:52:07.360 right
00:52:07.760 and Blair
00:52:08.240 were like
00:52:08.680 by the way
00:52:09.460 like come a little bit
00:52:10.620 like the right
00:52:11.700 has come a little bit
00:52:12.520 more left
00:52:13.040 like it has
00:52:13.820 but the left went
00:52:15.060 like
00:52:15.700 yeah exactly
00:52:16.620 like it went too much
00:52:17.420 but this is the point
00:52:18.360 this is why I was saying
00:52:19.260 it's people like you
00:52:19.980 and us
00:52:20.280 because like
00:52:21.140 the people I used to
00:52:22.300 watch growing up
00:52:23.420 as comics
00:52:23.960 were Bill Hicks
00:52:24.780 and George Carlin
00:52:25.560 these were two lefties
00:52:26.760 massive lefties
00:52:28.280 but they were talking
00:52:29.280 about political correctness
00:52:30.580 they were talking
00:52:31.080 about free speech
00:52:32.000 right
00:52:32.380 they just didn't want
00:52:33.660 a massive government
00:52:34.540 telling them what they can
00:52:35.600 and can't say
00:52:36.180 and at the time
00:52:36.980 it was the right
00:52:38.140 the religious right
00:52:39.160 that was going
00:52:39.740 you can't say this
00:52:40.880 you can't joke about Jesus
00:52:42.040 you can't do this
00:52:42.880 we talk about that
00:52:43.580 and they were pushing
00:52:44.460 against it
00:52:45.160 they were pushing
00:52:46.120 against authoritarianism
00:52:47.480 the left in America
00:52:48.620 was what
00:52:48.940 the 60s
00:52:49.500 the hippies
00:52:49.980 don't tell me
00:52:50.820 how to live my life
00:52:51.640 free love
00:52:52.760 that's not
00:52:53.800 what the left is now
00:52:54.640 left is like
00:52:55.180 do whatever they tell you to do
00:52:56.180 listen to the government
00:52:57.340 it's like the opposite
00:52:59.660 of what it used to be
00:53:00.500 even in the 90s
00:53:02.380 do you know where
00:53:02.980 the headbangers
00:53:03.700 and stuff like that
00:53:04.540 like the emo kids
00:53:05.740 they were the leftists
00:53:06.900 and they're still the leftists
00:53:08.560 but they believe
00:53:09.920 in something different now
00:53:11.300 where the left
00:53:12.700 really lost me
00:53:13.540 was just
00:53:14.060 I couldn't believe
00:53:14.960 how authoritarian they are
00:53:16.140 particularly when it came to COVID
00:53:17.440 and they're just like
00:53:18.300 lock everything down
00:53:19.280 shut it
00:53:19.700 shut it
00:53:20.060 shut it
00:53:20.400 shut it
00:53:20.720 shut it
00:53:20.980 let's never open again
00:53:22.160 let's live
00:53:22.780 and you're going
00:53:23.580 what the
00:53:24.480 what's going on
00:53:25.860 what's genuinely
00:53:27.160 what's going on
00:53:28.040 it's not
00:53:28.800 I
00:53:29.680 I think they've gotten
00:53:32.040 to a point
00:53:32.460 where they're just so scared
00:53:33.440 to do anything
00:53:34.580 that's not seen
00:53:36.040 as appropriate
00:53:37.000 do you think that's true too
00:53:38.900 do you know
00:53:39.940 like for people that are here
00:53:40.760 look
00:53:41.360 because leftists here
00:53:42.400 are crazy too right
00:53:43.360 yeah
00:53:43.660 yeah
00:53:44.000 yeah
00:53:44.460 and that's your fault
00:53:46.340 America's fault
00:53:47.340 you think we've influenced it
00:53:48.620 yeah
00:53:48.780 of course
00:53:49.700 oh I don't know
00:53:50.660 well we just
00:53:51.240 I don't know
00:53:52.200 I can't tell
00:53:52.660 you've got to understand
00:53:53.460 the chicken or the egg
00:53:53.880 like I don't
00:53:54.420 western culture
00:53:55.720 is really exported
00:53:57.300 American culture
00:53:58.160 is it
00:53:58.460 yeah
00:53:58.820 a lot of the time
00:53:59.700 we watch your movies
00:54:01.120 I'm so sorry that we did that
00:54:01.800 yeah yeah
00:54:02.120 we watch your movies
00:54:02.940 we listen to your podcasts
00:54:04.280 we
00:54:04.580 you know
00:54:05.340 all of that
00:54:06.440 yeah yeah
00:54:06.820 the cultural
00:54:07.580 so we get
00:54:08.600 we listen to your music
00:54:09.580 a lot of the time
00:54:10.960 we want reparations
00:54:12.180 down
00:54:13.560 down
00:54:14.500 for all of this shit
00:54:15.740 that's what we want
00:54:17.400 but that's why it's the Anglosphere
00:54:18.680 yeah
00:54:19.240 because it's
00:54:20.140 it's coming out of
00:54:21.100 American cultural institutions
00:54:22.640 and academia
00:54:23.500 and Twitter
00:54:24.340 and all of that shit
00:54:25.300 it's coming from America
00:54:26.880 and we're all going
00:54:27.600 oh give it to me
00:54:29.240 right
00:54:29.580 you know
00:54:29.880 that's where it's coming from
00:54:31.260 and so that's why
00:54:32.840 people like us
00:54:33.840 like Francis and I
00:54:34.940 are not really that interested
00:54:36.160 in American politics
00:54:37.460 and other stuff
00:54:38.000 I mean I've always paid attention to it
00:54:39.440 but
00:54:39.560 you have to pay attention
00:54:40.280 because you have to critique it
00:54:41.320 and you have to follow the trends
00:54:41.920 because we have to see what's coming
00:54:42.980 what's the next thing
00:54:43.780 right
00:54:43.940 you have to
00:54:44.380 right
00:54:44.740 yeah
00:54:45.060 you know
00:54:45.680 right
00:54:45.980 that makes sense
00:54:47.000 that's
00:54:47.800 that's what
00:54:48.140 and so we're all kind of
00:54:49.480 just like getting all this shit
00:54:50.580 and so we're all part of
00:54:51.600 your culture war now
00:54:52.480 oh shit
00:54:53.040 Canada
00:54:55.020 I don't know
00:54:55.960 Canada kind of
00:54:56.580 is even further left
00:54:58.320 than we are
00:54:58.840 right
00:54:59.160 like they had pro
00:55:00.000 they were against free speech
00:55:01.460 since like 2013 or something
00:55:03.840 like if you misgendered somebody
00:55:05.060 or whatever it was
00:55:05.720 yeah well that's how
00:55:06.380 you would go to jail
00:55:07.020 or get a crime
00:55:07.660 that's how Jordan Peterson
00:55:08.960 became what he became
00:55:09.500 right that's exactly
00:55:10.100 that's how he
00:55:10.580 that's how he rose to fame
00:55:11.440 because he would not
00:55:12.240 it wasn't like
00:55:13.020 he didn't want to be nice
00:55:14.000 to these trans people
00:55:14.780 it's just like
00:55:15.240 you cannot take away
00:55:16.020 my freedom of speech
00:55:16.620 that's really what
00:55:17.260 that argument was about
00:55:18.000 but of course
00:55:18.600 they misconstrued it
00:55:19.400 and made it about trans rights
00:55:20.280 it's like no
00:55:21.020 it's not what this is
00:55:22.020 when was the moment
00:55:23.000 where you thought
00:55:23.820 nah I'm not really
00:55:26.020 on board with this train
00:55:27.000 oh god
00:55:28.820 when they told me
00:55:30.420 I had to suck dick
00:55:31.060 honestly
00:55:32.540 it was that simple for me
00:55:33.900 who told you to suck dick
00:55:35.340 a lot of people
00:55:36.420 a lot of
00:55:37.460 a lot of people
00:55:38.140 claiming to be lesbians
00:55:39.280 because they were trans
00:55:41.000 because they were
00:55:41.680 trans inclusive lesbians
00:55:43.160 like that was like
00:55:44.720 the moment where I was like
00:55:45.580 okay this is just homophobia
00:55:46.780 and it's fine
00:55:47.320 like how did we get here
00:55:48.640 how did
00:55:48.980 how did
00:55:49.420 how is
00:55:50.940 how are supposed
00:55:52.120 these supposed people
00:55:53.900 that are queer activists
00:55:55.100 literally against
00:55:57.500 what homosexuality is
00:55:58.720 so
00:55:59.440 same sex attraction
00:56:00.620 you said
00:56:01.240 same
00:56:01.580 like the genitals
00:56:02.380 apparently mean nothing
00:56:03.180 to these people now
00:56:03.920 it's like the genitals
00:56:04.840 which literally
00:56:05.800 things that you have sex with
00:56:06.920 mean nothing
00:56:07.920 that was what like
00:56:09.680 really started red pilling me
00:56:10.980 and then my friend
00:56:12.360 showed me this documentary
00:56:13.160 I don't want to say it on camera
00:56:14.060 but
00:56:14.420 she showed me this documentary
00:56:15.940 and I was like holy crap
00:56:16.960 and now that was three years ago
00:56:18.300 two and a half years ago
00:56:19.340 and now things that were said
00:56:20.940 two and a half years ago
00:56:21.500 are coming true
00:56:22.120 that were said in the documentary
00:56:23.100 so now I believe everything
00:56:24.240 that's said in the documentary
00:56:25.180 like
00:56:26.540 things about Prince Andrew
00:56:27.900 and stuff like that
00:56:28.700 were talked about two years ago
00:56:30.160 and then like
00:56:31.360 would the queen
00:56:31.960 take away his
00:56:32.780 his status
00:56:33.780 and whatever it was
00:56:34.980 a lot of sneaky
00:56:36.700 let me just say
00:56:37.240 there's a lot of
00:56:38.880 like underground
00:56:39.780 sneaky stuff
00:56:40.800 that's happening
00:56:42.040 and it's all
00:56:43.000 somehow most of it's
00:56:44.680 because
00:56:44.940 most of it is
00:56:45.920 on not all of it
00:56:46.700 because there's some
00:56:47.180 conservatives that are like
00:56:48.620 you know
00:56:49.340 secretly gay
00:56:50.100 and pedophiles
00:56:50.940 or both
00:56:51.580 or whatever
00:56:52.020 no you can't be both
00:56:52.980 you know what I mean
00:56:53.380 they're secretly gay
00:56:54.140 or they're pedophiles
00:56:55.300 and they won't
00:56:55.680 you know
00:56:55.880 or
00:56:56.580 but most of these people
00:56:57.740 are like
00:56:58.100 more progressive
00:56:59.260 like most of these people
00:57:01.420 that are
00:57:01.680 that have these
00:57:03.460 sneaky side lives
00:57:05.280 or
00:57:06.480 you know what I'm trying to say
00:57:08.520 I know what you're trying to say
00:57:09.540 like a lot of them
00:57:10.080 are on the left
00:57:10.640 I'm thinking it through
00:57:11.020 I don't know how true
00:57:12.220 it depends on
00:57:13.020 again it depends on
00:57:13.800 the time period
00:57:14.380 like we've had
00:57:16.040 a lot of historical
00:57:17.200 like pedophilic abuses
00:57:20.920 revealed in this country
00:57:22.280 in the last 10-15 years
00:57:23.740 and a lot of those people
00:57:25.360 were very much
00:57:26.180 with the establishment
00:57:27.440 which would have been
00:57:28.260 more conservative
00:57:28.900 at the time
00:57:29.580 yeah
00:57:29.820 so I think it just depends
00:57:30.900 on who has power
00:57:31.820 actually
00:57:32.480 maybe
00:57:32.720 I think
00:57:33.340 so it kind of depends
00:57:34.540 if you are in power
00:57:35.420 you can get away with shit
00:57:36.860 basically
00:57:37.420 right
00:57:37.780 and there's nonsense
00:57:39.160 as we call them
00:57:39.860 on all sides
00:57:40.660 yeah of course
00:57:41.620 yeah yeah
00:57:42.100 it just I guess
00:57:42.740 it just happens
00:57:43.220 that in the states
00:57:43.720 right now
00:57:44.000 it's more progressively
00:57:44.660 yeah
00:57:45.000 so I think
00:57:45.540 that's what I've seen
00:57:46.180 yeah I don't think
00:57:46.800 being progressive
00:57:47.360 makes you a pedophile
00:57:48.300 no no no
00:57:48.900 I'm not right
00:57:49.460 no of course not
00:57:50.460 that's why I said
00:57:51.440 there's some conservatives too
00:57:52.640 I know
00:57:52.780 I just said that for a time
00:57:53.740 no yeah yeah
00:57:54.460 but that will be
00:57:55.180 the title of the episode
00:57:56.200 that will get views
00:57:59.920 yeah it will do
00:58:00.700 it will do incredibly well
00:58:01.660 only progressives are pedophiles
00:58:02.680 so good
00:58:06.400 that would be a great title
00:58:08.760 I mean the progressives
00:58:09.780 believe in like age
00:58:10.700 what do you call it
00:58:11.940 Marcus what was it
00:58:13.260 age regression
00:58:14.340 and like all these
00:58:15.360 like you can be age fluid
00:58:16.540 so
00:58:17.000 well that's the next thing
00:58:18.280 isn't it
00:58:18.540 if you can be a different sex
00:58:19.580 why can't you be a different age
00:58:20.800 why can't you be transracial
00:58:22.020 well Rachel Dolezal was apparently
00:58:24.280 yeah
00:58:24.780 you can be
00:58:25.960 dying her skin brown
00:58:27.080 what a great world we live in
00:58:29.160 so I
00:58:29.700 so what's your plan
00:58:31.500 with your YouTube channel
00:58:32.680 are you gonna
00:58:33.320 is this what you're gonna
00:58:34.340 continue to focus on
00:58:35.720 or
00:58:36.180 I think so
00:58:36.760 do you hope this shit is over
00:58:38.100 so you can go back
00:58:38.800 to talking about sex ed
00:58:39.760 no I like
00:58:40.400 this is job security for me
00:58:41.600 as much as I hate it
00:58:43.060 it's keeping me working
00:58:44.340 it's true
00:58:46.200 it is true
00:58:47.140 it's true
00:58:47.600 because
00:58:48.180 beforehand it was job security too
00:58:49.700 because it was all these
00:58:50.240 all these people on the right
00:58:51.700 this was years ago
00:58:52.640 on the right
00:58:53.920 hating us for being gay too
00:58:55.020 and now people on the left
00:58:55.800 hate me for being gay
00:58:56.600 it's the same shit
00:58:57.640 just coming from a different side
00:58:59.580 it's coming from a woke perspective
00:59:01.020 like
00:59:01.440 we mean this
00:59:02.240 because we're trying to help you
00:59:03.620 isn't that what the Christians
00:59:05.160 and Catholics
00:59:05.620 and
00:59:05.880 they would say the same shit
00:59:07.580 yeah
00:59:08.120 so it's just coming from the other side
00:59:09.400 we don't want you to be a racist
00:59:10.680 we don't want you to be transphobic
00:59:11.960 so we're just doing this to help you
00:59:13.420 it's no infected corporations
00:59:15.600 that's the
00:59:16.120 that's the amazing thing
00:59:17.540 yeah but when you go woke
00:59:18.560 you go broke
00:59:19.100 you know that right
00:59:20.620 like all these companies
00:59:21.520 that are going woke
00:59:22.100 are losing money
00:59:22.640 yeah
00:59:23.120 yeah
00:59:23.460 Disney
00:59:25.040 Netflix
00:59:26.200 Coke
00:59:26.760 remember what happened with Coke
00:59:28.380 no
00:59:28.820 like
00:59:29.140 you don't remember what happened with Coke
00:59:30.420 in Atlanta
00:59:30.840 they're based in Atlanta I think
00:59:32.080 it was like
00:59:33.040 there was like a woke racist
00:59:34.360 anti-white racist training
00:59:36.380 or whatever that went viral
00:59:37.380 you don't remember that
00:59:38.020 was it Coke or Pepsi
00:59:38.960 it was Coke
00:59:39.440 Coke yeah
00:59:39.920 and what happened
00:59:42.340 their stocks went down
00:59:44.460 right
00:59:44.880 they lost a lot of money
00:59:46.000 a lot of support
00:59:46.640 a lot of people were
00:59:47.440 giving them shit
00:59:48.460 like
00:59:49.300 rightfully so
00:59:50.460 they were telling people
00:59:51.660 how to be less white
00:59:53.120 oh I remember this now
00:59:54.240 yeah
00:59:54.400 but it doesn't even make sense
00:59:55.700 how can you be less white
00:59:56.860 like my skin didn't change any color
00:59:58.160 yeah
00:59:58.660 still white
00:59:59.240 yeah
00:59:59.700 unless they go out in the sun
01:00:00.680 but this is
01:00:01.320 this is what they've done
01:00:02.060 is they defined whiteness
01:00:03.380 as being
01:00:04.000 a state of mind
01:00:05.900 right
01:00:06.460 and therefore
01:00:07.100 if you change
01:00:08.020 the way you think
01:00:09.000 then you become less white
01:00:10.700 right
01:00:11.040 and then you're
01:00:11.840 you're absolved
01:00:13.160 of your many sins
01:00:13.820 exactly
01:00:14.220 the sin of whiteness
01:00:15.200 has been wiped away
01:00:16.360 which is the opposite
01:00:17.180 of what is reality
01:00:18.340 right
01:00:18.860 can't be less white
01:00:19.840 or less black
01:00:20.420 you just are
01:00:21.540 yeah
01:00:22.040 but this is going back
01:00:23.260 to that Rachel Dolezal comment
01:00:24.660 I watched a documentary
01:00:25.800 on Rachel Dolezal
01:00:26.700 and she was
01:00:27.680 and she was in the university
01:00:29.240 was it a university
01:00:30.180 that she was in
01:00:30.780 or she came to do a talk
01:00:31.940 about black studies
01:00:34.380 or something along those lines
01:00:35.500 oh god
01:00:36.000 and this was after
01:00:36.860 she was outed
01:00:37.640 and this student stood up
01:00:38.880 and went
01:00:39.160 you have no right
01:00:39.860 to call yourself black
01:00:40.760 I'm like correct
01:00:41.560 right
01:00:42.160 and then she went
01:00:43.080 you haven't earned
01:00:43.820 the right to be black
01:00:44.860 I'm like what
01:00:45.640 you haven't earned the right
01:00:47.820 that's not an earned right
01:00:48.920 it's just
01:00:49.300 it is
01:00:49.900 yeah
01:00:50.300 it's an existence
01:00:51.520 and it's just
01:00:53.320 it's so bizarre
01:00:53.720 but I think it comes back
01:00:55.140 to that point
01:00:55.700 that I made about
01:00:56.420 the bar person
01:00:58.440 at the theater
01:00:59.280 at one of our live shows
01:01:00.980 where it's about
01:01:02.260 opting out
01:01:03.240 of things
01:01:04.200 and opting into things
01:01:05.660 and I think
01:01:06.740 what people
01:01:07.400 which is so easy these days
01:01:08.460 because you don't even
01:01:09.200 have to do anything
01:01:09.860 to identify as something
01:01:10.840 right
01:01:11.060 you could just say it
01:01:11.800 and you have to believe it
01:01:12.480 and also I think
01:01:13.120 the more lives move online
01:01:14.520 the more
01:01:15.860 online
01:01:17.220 you are less constrained
01:01:18.260 by the parameters
01:01:19.340 of reality
01:01:20.020 like you could start
01:01:21.460 a Twitter account
01:01:22.760 or even
01:01:23.460 just to some extent
01:01:24.540 a YouTube channel
01:01:25.420 in which
01:01:26.580 nobody knows
01:01:27.620 what you look like
01:01:28.320 so you could be
01:01:29.680 like I could be
01:01:30.920 like a black lesbian
01:01:31.960 on Twitter
01:01:32.520 and it costs nothing
01:01:34.500 there's nothing
01:01:35.720 I have to do
01:01:36.280 I'm not constrained
01:01:37.140 by my body
01:01:37.860 I'm not constrained
01:01:38.460 by my genetics
01:01:39.140 I'm not constrained
01:01:39.780 by anything
01:01:40.260 and I think
01:01:41.080 the more
01:01:41.500 the online world
01:01:42.560 becomes the world
01:01:43.860 and the more people
01:01:45.480 are persuaded
01:01:47.640 that you can sort of
01:01:48.600 customize your experience
01:01:49.980 of life
01:01:50.520 by thinking
01:01:52.260 and having identities
01:01:53.580 the more
01:01:54.620 I think
01:01:55.080 you will see people
01:01:56.040 who are just
01:01:56.500 opting out
01:01:57.160 of reality
01:01:57.800 which is
01:01:58.760 what I think
01:01:59.640 is happening
01:02:00.080 so I'm very hopeful
01:02:02.480 that the pushback
01:02:03.340 that you're talking about
01:02:04.180 is coming
01:02:04.560 although
01:02:05.200 as always
01:02:05.880 with pushbacks
01:02:06.500 when the pendulum
01:02:07.160 swings back
01:02:07.960 it's going to go
01:02:08.880 the other way again
01:02:09.500 and you know
01:02:10.480 I hope it does
01:02:10.980 it's going to
01:02:11.820 overswing
01:02:12.280 it always does
01:02:13.320 it's going to
01:02:14.200 overswing
01:02:14.600 and you talk about it
01:02:15.580 yourself
01:02:15.780 the overcorrection
01:02:16.360 of it
01:02:16.680 yeah
01:02:17.520 the acceptance
01:02:18.540 of LGBT people
01:02:19.740 is going down
01:02:20.460 because it's
01:02:21.620 just become
01:02:22.360 too much
01:02:23.020 yeah
01:02:23.260 right
01:02:23.680 instead of just
01:02:24.460 going hey
01:02:24.820 can we just
01:02:25.260 all get on
01:02:25.820 with each other
01:02:26.300 and not treat
01:02:26.840 people differently
01:02:27.480 because of who
01:02:27.860 they are
01:02:28.300 it's now
01:02:28.960 suck the dick
01:02:29.620 bigger
01:02:29.900 yeah
01:02:30.340 right
01:02:30.580 yes
01:02:31.160 and people
01:02:31.860 don't want
01:02:32.200 to suck
01:02:32.440 the dick
01:02:32.840 don't want
01:02:34.960 not a fan
01:02:36.340 you know
01:02:37.620 I tried touching
01:02:38.800 one
01:02:39.180 I had it
01:02:39.840 on a video
01:02:40.240 it's on YouTube
01:02:40.760 and I just
01:02:41.520 I even had
01:02:42.200 difficulty doing
01:02:42.820 that
01:02:43.020 I'm not gonna
01:02:43.340 lie
01:02:43.560 what is that
01:02:46.860 I'm not a fan
01:02:48.980 yeah
01:02:49.220 that's what's
01:02:50.880 happening
01:02:51.120 but good news
01:02:51.860 for us
01:02:52.260 is that it's
01:02:52.980 still happening
01:02:53.400 so we get
01:02:53.900 to make more
01:02:54.220 videos about it
01:02:54.860 yeah
01:02:55.220 ain't that
01:02:57.740 the truth
01:02:58.180 well
01:02:58.820 I
01:02:59.780 but
01:03:00.360 if it came
01:03:01.520 to a toss-up
01:03:02.300 between
01:03:02.800 you know
01:03:03.840 society
01:03:04.940 not going
01:03:05.720 down the drain
01:03:06.540 yeah
01:03:06.980 I know
01:03:07.480 I know
01:03:07.820 we are being
01:03:09.340 you know
01:03:09.580 and it's a joke
01:03:10.160 I'm being facetious
01:03:11.000 yeah of course
01:03:11.780 we all are
01:03:12.640 I don't want
01:03:13.180 the world
01:03:13.420 go into shit
01:03:13.880 just so I can
01:03:14.260 make money
01:03:15.140 but also
01:03:15.880 I think you
01:03:16.660 and we
01:03:17.220 there's other shit
01:03:18.340 we want to talk about
01:03:19.360 yes exactly
01:03:19.960 when we started out
01:03:20.740 we were
01:03:21.100 and still
01:03:21.760 even now
01:03:22.280 regularly
01:03:22.600 we interview
01:03:23.180 evolutionary psychologists
01:03:24.740 evolutionary biologists
01:03:25.780 we want to understand
01:03:26.460 how people work
01:03:27.240 why are men different
01:03:28.260 why are brains
01:03:28.920 oh you had Colin
01:03:29.420 on the show
01:03:29.840 Colin
01:03:30.480 yeah yeah
01:03:30.980 but again
01:03:32.060 we have to talk to him
01:03:32.820 about fucking trans
01:03:33.780 I know
01:03:34.380 I want to talk to him
01:03:35.720 about actual shit
01:03:36.820 right
01:03:37.100 but we gotta
01:03:37.920 because we gotta
01:03:38.820 can you please prove to us
01:03:40.520 that men are different
01:03:41.320 from women
01:03:41.820 because some people
01:03:42.460 and he proves it
01:03:44.780 and he's still a bigot
01:03:45.520 right
01:03:45.820 why can't we just like
01:03:47.320 I'm more interested
01:03:48.520 in understanding each other
01:03:49.820 like why do women
01:03:50.760 behave in this way
01:03:51.560 generally
01:03:52.060 and why do men
01:03:52.780 behave in this way
01:03:53.360 and how can we
01:03:53.960 connect better
01:03:54.560 and how can we
01:03:55.240 coexist
01:03:55.660 and what about
01:03:56.840 like personal growth
01:03:57.860 and personal development
01:03:58.680 how do you overcome trauma
01:03:59.840 how do you
01:04:00.260 like you know
01:04:01.280 talk about
01:04:01.720 all these deeper conversations
01:04:02.720 that are not
01:04:03.300 yeah like about
01:04:04.220 you know
01:04:04.780 I want to get on somebody
01:04:06.520 who's been on a journey
01:04:07.720 through a difficult
01:04:08.880 journey in their life
01:04:10.200 and learn from them
01:04:11.440 how do you make
01:04:12.060 your life better
01:04:12.600 how do you help people
01:04:13.460 how do you
01:04:14.040 become more fulfilled
01:04:15.140 instead I've got to talk
01:04:16.420 about sucking dicks
01:04:17.280 it always comes back
01:04:18.960 to sucking dick
01:04:19.600 it does with me
01:04:21.000 it always comes back
01:04:21.720 it does with me
01:04:22.280 it really does
01:04:23.040 yeah
01:04:23.420 it's how things get done
01:04:25.000 I don't even know
01:04:26.880 what that means
01:04:27.380 I don't know either
01:04:28.140 but it made sense
01:04:28.880 you know what I mean
01:04:30.780 I don't want to be
01:04:31.860 talking about the culture war
01:04:32.840 I don't want to be
01:04:33.340 50 years old
01:04:34.060 and talking about
01:04:34.580 the culture war
01:04:35.280 yeah
01:04:35.760 can you imagine that
01:04:36.920 we're still in the same seat
01:04:38.120 just sitting here
01:04:39.000 just fat
01:04:39.740 with less hair
01:04:40.720 oh my god
01:04:41.820 still talking about
01:04:42.640 but here's the thing
01:04:43.860 that worries me
01:04:44.460 we're talking about things
01:04:45.820 that are genuinely nuts
01:04:47.480 yeah
01:04:48.260 objectively mental
01:04:49.780 right
01:04:50.260 and this is where
01:04:51.460 we are now
01:04:51.980 and if you think about
01:04:53.160 progressivism
01:04:53.980 or
01:04:54.440 the clue is in the word
01:04:56.900 it's progress
01:04:57.560 you're progressing somewhere
01:04:58.960 which makes me worried
01:05:00.440 it's great branding
01:05:01.460 by the way
01:05:02.080 incredible branding
01:05:02.860 great branding
01:05:03.620 nobody wants to be
01:05:04.800 because even the word
01:05:05.840 conservative sounds
01:05:06.840 kind of like
01:05:07.520 yeah
01:05:08.240 it does
01:05:09.420 it does
01:05:10.580 it's really
01:05:11.360 listen I went to school
01:05:12.520 and I studied advertising
01:05:13.760 great branding
01:05:14.920 the progressive movement has
01:05:15.920 terrible ideology
01:05:17.060 yeah
01:05:17.560 great branding
01:05:18.420 incredible
01:05:19.480 conservative
01:05:20.240 it's like what
01:05:20.760 conservative sounds like
01:05:21.900 we're shutting you out
01:05:22.640 yeah
01:05:23.120 we're conservative
01:05:23.900 and you're boring
01:05:24.880 you're tedious
01:05:25.400 you just do missionary
01:05:28.480 that's what conservatives do
01:05:30.260 you know what I mean
01:05:30.840 don't look each other in the eye
01:05:31.960 and get the act done
01:05:32.820 and there's hope for a baby
01:05:34.020 do a whole like juice
01:05:34.760 I feel like we're just
01:05:35.500 we're just giving away
01:05:36.440 our personal life here
01:05:37.380 basically
01:05:37.880 but
01:05:38.860 true
01:05:39.840 but
01:05:41.540 I hope not
01:05:42.260 I hope not
01:05:42.800 but
01:05:43.100 that's throwing me for a loop
01:05:45.200 but the thing that worries me
01:05:46.860 is
01:05:47.260 where are we progressing to
01:05:49.280 right
01:05:49.640 where are we going
01:05:50.620 if in 2022
01:05:51.420 we're doing this shit
01:05:52.420 we're doing this shit
01:05:53.460 you know
01:05:54.640 Leah Thomas
01:05:55.340 I'm a woman
01:05:56.120 dive in
01:05:57.040 smash all the female swimmers
01:05:58.540 right
01:05:58.940 where are we going to be
01:06:00.200 in five years
01:06:00.780 yeah
01:06:01.200 well you think
01:06:01.920 it's actually going to turn
01:06:02.720 I think it's
01:06:03.160 I think it's starting
01:06:03.840 to come back around
01:06:04.480 yeah
01:06:04.700 yeah
01:06:05.060 well that's why I say
01:06:06.600 you know
01:06:07.320 I hope we don't
01:06:08.580 throw the baby out
01:06:09.440 with the bath water
01:06:10.220 right
01:06:10.660 and I think that's
01:06:11.420 really important to say
01:06:12.600 yeah
01:06:13.140 because you're starting
01:06:13.860 to see like
01:06:14.640 like just like
01:06:15.660 keep the good stuff
01:06:16.320 toss the bad stuff
01:06:16.880 right
01:06:17.100 like we figured
01:06:17.800 we're figuring it out
01:06:18.800 you don't have to toss
01:06:19.640 all the good stuff out
01:06:20.400 right
01:06:20.600 toss all the good stuff
01:06:21.820 with the bad stuff
01:06:22.280 yeah
01:06:22.500 well exactly
01:06:23.180 because
01:06:23.480 it worries me
01:06:25.320 that like
01:06:25.880 we're going to get
01:06:26.400 to a position
01:06:26.920 it's like
01:06:27.360 oh the rainbow people
01:06:28.680 yeah they're all
01:06:29.420 they're all crazy
01:06:30.100 yeah
01:06:30.520 yeah that's what
01:06:31.020 I'm worried about too
01:06:31.600 why do you think
01:06:32.040 people like me
01:06:32.720 and Blair
01:06:33.000 and Buck
01:06:33.360 and Marcus
01:06:33.800 talk about these things
01:06:34.780 because we don't
01:06:35.920 we're damage control
01:06:36.960 we're literally
01:06:37.900 the damage control
01:06:38.680 of the gay community
01:06:39.440 of the LGBT community
01:06:41.680 and the thing
01:06:42.240 that I'm starting to see
01:06:43.360 is people just being
01:06:44.380 openly hateful now
01:06:46.140 of trans people
01:06:46.840 and going
01:06:47.200 oh yeah
01:06:47.880 these are the types
01:06:49.080 of people
01:06:49.480 this is what
01:06:50.120 they're doing
01:06:50.500 to our kids
01:06:51.000 I'm like
01:06:51.360 no no no
01:06:52.780 don't go there
01:06:53.940 right
01:06:54.360 please don't go there
01:06:55.580 defense mechanism
01:06:56.480 it's a defense mechanism
01:06:57.260 yeah
01:06:57.540 and it's understandable
01:06:58.460 because they see
01:06:59.700 like an enemy
01:07:00.180 they want to see
01:07:01.260 a very specific enemy
01:07:02.280 but that's not
01:07:02.740 but it's going to be
01:07:03.340 the trans people
01:07:04.140 and other people
01:07:05.320 who suffer as a result
01:07:06.680 yeah
01:07:07.020 that's exactly
01:07:07.740 we've been telling them
01:07:09.200 we have been telling them
01:07:10.260 for five years now
01:07:11.120 for five years
01:07:12.220 I've been making videos
01:07:13.020 about like trans issues
01:07:14.100 I didn't come out
01:07:15.160 as like a more
01:07:15.820 conservative person
01:07:16.560 until two years ago
01:07:17.640 but since 2015
01:07:18.880 I've been talking
01:07:19.500 about trans stuff
01:07:20.200 and basically telling people
01:07:22.740 like you need to calm down
01:07:23.780 because you're making it
01:07:25.060 and it's been proven
01:07:26.320 I've been
01:07:27.640 I don't want to be right
01:07:28.540 but I'm right
01:07:29.100 lower and lower every year
01:07:31.400 our acceptance rate
01:07:32.380 yeah
01:07:32.740 because of those people
01:07:33.560 not because of me
01:07:34.240 not because of me
01:07:35.520 we got
01:07:36.040 my generation of gay people
01:07:37.320 got gay rights
01:07:38.060 we got gay marriage
01:07:39.320 these new
01:07:41.180 this new generation
01:07:42.360 this whole
01:07:42.840 everybody could be
01:07:43.940 queer thing
01:07:45.440 whatever that is
01:07:46.760 no it doesn't even
01:07:47.780 mean anything
01:07:48.240 that's when it started
01:07:50.120 going downhill for us
01:07:51.060 so
01:07:52.900 I don't want to be right
01:07:54.680 I hate being right
01:07:55.300 in this case
01:07:55.760 it's not about
01:07:56.240 letting you go
01:07:56.800 well hopefully you're right
01:07:57.840 about the pendulum swinging
01:07:58.920 at least
01:07:59.440 I hope so
01:08:00.200 and then we'll be sitting here
01:08:01.640 pissing off all the people
01:08:02.760 that watch us now
01:08:03.680 going guys guys
01:08:04.580 slow down
01:08:05.140 don't go crazy
01:08:06.220 we've got to stay
01:08:07.180 in the sensible middle
01:08:08.000 yes
01:08:08.280 that's what will happen
01:08:09.020 I think so
01:08:09.860 best case scenario
01:08:10.640 yes best case scenario
01:08:11.720 best case scenario
01:08:12.340 that's what will happen
01:08:12.820 I hope so
01:08:13.100 well
01:08:14.260 that's it
01:08:15.840 I think that's a good note
01:08:17.600 to end on
01:08:18.020 I agree
01:08:18.380 but we do have
01:08:19.460 a lot of questions
01:08:20.700 from our audience
01:08:21.380 for locals only
01:08:22.300 which we'll ask in a sec
01:08:23.240 okay
01:08:23.500 but we forgot to warn you
01:08:24.720 about this
01:08:25.140 but you'll have an answer
01:08:26.100 the last question
01:08:26.880 we always ask is
01:08:27.740 what's the one thing
01:08:28.780 we're not talking about
01:08:29.740 as a society
01:08:30.500 that you think
01:08:31.020 we really should be
01:08:31.720 ooh
01:08:32.700 I don't know how to answer that
01:08:35.380 yeah
01:08:35.800 the one thing
01:08:36.940 that we should be talking about
01:08:37.940 that we're not
01:08:38.460 I mean I talk about everything
01:08:41.100 I feel like
01:08:42.000 I'll
01:08:42.700 okay
01:08:42.960 I guess you could
01:08:44.140 I think we need to talk more about
01:08:45.800 pedophiles
01:08:46.920 and people
01:08:47.920 people of power
01:08:48.780 I really do
01:08:49.900 because there's a lot of them
01:08:51.380 and I don't think anyone's covering it
01:08:52.700 we are
01:08:53.480 yeah
01:08:53.980 on raw
01:08:54.420 on raw
01:08:55.120 three nights a week
01:08:55.980 we just talk about pedophiles
01:08:57.360 that's it
01:08:58.000 nonce banter
01:08:59.040 nonce banter
01:08:59.780 as we call it
01:09:00.480 nonce is a great word
01:09:01.640 by the way
01:09:02.120 it's a British for pedophile
01:09:03.840 but it sort of sounds
01:09:04.900 less offensive
01:09:05.540 yeah
01:09:05.940 don't make it
01:09:07.940 listen
01:09:08.220 don't be calling them
01:09:09.160 apps and shit
