00:01:04.120
Without further ado, I'm going to introduce our two debaters.
00:01:09.440
He's a political commentator and political cartoonist for the Washington Examiner.
00:01:16.100
Also joining us today is Kyla, or as she goes online, not so erudite.
00:01:24.320
She has an undergraduate degree in psychology and a graduate diploma in psychometrics.
00:01:30.000
She's a content creator, streamer, and political commentator.
00:01:35.280
The topic of today's debate is feminism, and we've kind of spontaneously possibly added a few other prompts to...
00:01:44.200
You will each have up to a five-minute opening statement.
00:01:47.820
The rest of the show will be open conversation with a few breaks for audience messages.
00:01:52.920
At the end, you will each have up to a five-minute closing statement.
00:01:57.140
And Jim Bob, we're going to have you do your opening statement first.
00:02:01.860
Well, feminism, at least broadly stated, is the advocacy of equality of sexes.
00:02:09.260
Definitionally, that would be a movement away from a society that has men in power.
00:02:17.160
Men holding the power, and women are largely excluded from those positions.
00:02:25.040
It would be up to my opponent tonight to redefine feminism to maybe get away from this contradiction.
00:02:30.620
But if feminism is some type of movement away from male power or a patriarchy, then any form of feminism that I can point to, or I think my opponent can point to, relies on that same power.
00:02:46.300
So, for example, if we go back to even the 18th Amendment before they had voting, they appealed to men, right?
00:02:53.340
When the 19th Amendment came along, they were actually still appealing to men.
00:02:58.420
So, the question is, well, is that a movement toward feminism, or is it just affirming the power that men actually have and sort of asking, like a parent, can they have a larger allowance this week?
00:03:13.280
The funny thing about feminism is that while it's rooted in this sentiment that the patriarchy is this authoritative, oppressive regime, if we look back maybe around the 80s and onward, the voting patterns, ironically, from women are highly tilted toward expanding authoritative government power, which is kind of a funny irony.
00:03:35.920
The sentiment, again, is men oppress, we've got to break the oppressive patterns of society, and yet all of their voting patterns actually points to the opposite, expanding government authority, which another irony is that that government authority is mostly men.
00:03:52.300
The feminist screeches about liberty and autonomy, then votes for more government intrusion.
00:03:58.540
Now, while we have heard plenty from Andrew Wilson on the Force Doctrine, it is definitely an undefeated argument.
00:04:05.740
Even if you got a guerrilla to deliver the argument in sign language, it would still be better than any feminist argument I've ever heard.
00:04:13.980
However, we won't beat that horse to death, but I do want to include it in the debate.
00:04:18.700
I also want to include that feminism largely defined today, the metrics for feminism, the metrics for liberty, the metrics for well-being, is often placed on just mere maybe economic liberalism or some sort of outcome-based system that's measuring materialism, some type of wealth, some type of mobility economically.
00:04:46.940
And it's rooted in consumerism, which is kind of funny because the movement that feminism made throughout the last couple hundred years coincided with a predominantly male-run industrious part of society.
00:05:06.240
The industrialists, maybe they looked at the women and said, huh, that's a whole other taxable income right there.
00:05:15.260
They're just sitting ducks, right, safe in their home, raising the children.
00:05:23.080
And lo and behold, many years later, women, I think now the percent is about 75%.
00:05:33.940
So, you know, my opponent might define feminism as a good thing because it produces well-being.
00:05:40.940
I would argue even with the debt, holding debt, even the stress of debt as a man holding debt, the kind of stress that could put on you, I don't think that would add too much to your well-being.
00:05:52.320
There's other metrics you could look at to argue that the well-being is actually not great with the pursuit of pure materialism.
00:05:59.420
So if my opponent tonight offers a metric for the good rooted only in material outcomes, consumer outcomes, purchasing power, this type of thing,
00:06:12.760
I would just point out that the goodness of a society cannot be reduced and should not be reduced to strict materialism.
00:06:26.040
So when we advocate the basic feminist talking point is liberate the woman from this terrible home situation that they're in.
00:06:42.980
The alternative that I've seen in the last 30 years is mostly being a slave to more of a stranger of a man who's a CEO and your home becomes the office.
00:06:55.500
And I'm not sure what the tradeoff is because what happens with feminists is they basically forfeit their fertile years.
00:07:03.140
And then, you know, 20 years later, they wake up, they're 44, they have wine-stained teeth, they have seven cats, and they're wondering where all the men are.
00:07:14.240
They're already married, and they're married to women who rejected feminism.
00:07:17.820
And lucky for them, they have children, they have a legacy, they have something bigger to live into than strict material wants and desires.
00:07:26.780
So, with that said, I just want to point out one more time the contradiction that's in feminism, and I don't know if my opponent will be able to get out of this.
00:07:37.120
If feminism is merely the advocacy of equality of sexes, but it depends on a structure that is demonstrable, it demonstrates inequality of the sexes, that is the society we live in.
00:07:51.760
So, in a weird roundabout way, any concept or application of feminism appeals to patriarchy.
00:07:59.580
So, in a rhetorical sense, feminism is still patriarchal.
00:08:05.940
Patriarchy is a natural description of reality.
00:08:09.580
To argue for feminism is to argue with reality, and I think the way feminists generally argue, the way they generally live,
00:08:18.280
seems to be consistent with a constant rejection of reality.
00:08:24.100
Kyla, what about you for your opening statement?
00:08:29.080
Jim and I talked beforehand just to make sure that for the viewers, we gave them a slightly different conversation,
00:08:33.860
because I know this is like feminism, too, for people who watched the previous debate.
00:08:38.160
So, maybe what I'll try to do in my intro is maybe outline where my feminism maybe differs from others,
00:08:47.460
and we can kind of get into that and kind of break down basically what I would view as like good feminism versus bad feminists.
00:09:03.180
There are feminists, and some of them are great, like Simone de Beauvoir.
00:09:11.160
And there are bad feminists, just like any movement and any idea.
00:09:15.220
The idea, to me, of feminism, I think it started out as this idea of equality for sexes,
00:09:20.140
and I think that that was important for the first initial waves.
00:09:22.460
I don't think feminists are being super honest with themselves if they say that that's what it's for now,
00:09:28.360
because I think we've achieved a lot of equality.
00:09:30.540
Women, by and large, have the same access to opportunities as men.
00:09:34.440
There are a couple of, like, soft cultural limits that I would agree to.
00:09:38.080
There's some certain cultural patriarchal elements that I think might still inhibit women a little bit.
00:09:47.700
They essentially have all the same freedoms of opportunities that men do, which is awesome.
00:09:53.760
I think what feminism is doing now and should be focused on is essentially what I label feminism as,
00:10:00.220
which is a empowerment of women and a promotion of femininity.
00:10:07.980
And maybe for this conversation, we can focus specifically, at least for me, on the promotion of femininity,
00:10:13.800
because I think that that's the area that needs the most work.
00:10:16.320
I think third-wave feminism did a really good job at stretching the boundaries of what it meant to be a woman.
00:10:23.280
I think it opened up a lot of more masculine traditional roles for women that women couldn't really occupy before.
00:10:31.260
But I don't think that feminism's done a very good job of building its own table.
00:10:36.020
And that's what a lot of fourth-wave feminists kind of advocate for, is this kind of building of a new table and a promotion of femininity that isn't reliant on just, like, engaging in hyper-masculous structures.
00:10:53.480
There's a lot of feminists, for example, that basically dismiss all male-related issues.
00:11:04.120
There are certain kind of dorkenites, for example, who, I would say just, Missandria feels like not even enough to describe the level of hatred she has for men.
00:11:19.020
And, like, Gloria Steinem, she's a classical third-wave kind of lib feminist.
00:11:24.660
She's very fixated on just, like, women getting into careers, and that's kind of it.
00:11:32.380
And I don't care about that other than if women want to go into careers that they can.
00:11:39.540
I know that I didn't address a lot of your opening statement, but I did write it down.
00:11:42.560
So if you want to go back to anything, we totally can.
00:11:44.560
But, yeah, I think the feminism that focuses on promotion of femininity would be the most good for women now.
00:11:57.660
Could you define empowerment from your perspective?
00:12:03.000
So for me, empowerment of women would be, like, removing obstacles for opportunity.
00:12:08.620
So from your feminist view of empowerment plus femininity, would you say it's empowering for women to stay home and be mothers?
00:12:21.540
And so if it's empowering for women to choose and they're choosing based on their femininity,
00:12:27.900
if it actually produced a large disparity where women actually found positions in society that were maybe lower in power,
00:12:38.100
administrative, helping, teaching, mothering, if that was the outcome of pure choice,
00:12:44.080
you wouldn't declare that there's some inequality or injustice between the disparity of men in power and women in lower positions.
00:12:55.360
In more egalitarian societies, we actually often see women trending towards more femme traditional roles.
00:13:01.440
Like, women tend to want to be nurses and teachers more often.
00:13:05.740
And I will say, for the caveat, some people dispute that evidence.
00:13:09.260
The evidence, when I look at it, seems pretty robust.
00:13:11.720
So, yeah, I think women will often still trend towards some of those traditional gender roles, which I'm totally for.
00:13:17.060
I just want to make sure that they're choosing it and that the women who wouldn't be choosing that have the opportunity to choose something else.
00:13:23.340
Okay, and then is there any reason, from your view, choosing to be a mother at home and a wife,
00:13:29.180
is there any reason you could see that that's actually more empowering than an alternative?
00:13:34.200
For instance, let me give you a strict example.
00:13:36.640
If a woman that you knew and loved, for instance, relative or friend, said,
00:13:42.680
you know what, I'm really drawn to being a mother.
00:13:45.100
I really am drawn to the traditional structure of life.
00:13:47.880
I could just really see myself raising, like, five kids.
00:13:52.960
But there's this other impulse of me that wants to just start an OnlyFans.
00:13:59.300
Like, from a feminist view that you're defending today, is it either or is fine?
00:14:04.920
Or is one better for her and better for society?
00:14:08.580
So when I think about, like, what's the best choice for somebody, I break it into three things.
00:14:13.980
Which is, the choices you make should be something that your past self, your present self, and your future self will consent to and like.
00:14:20.780
And so I think when you're posing this question, the OnlyFans option has a lot of potential acute short-term gain.
00:14:29.540
But the important question is, will your future self consent to that and like it?
00:14:38.520
I have met, like, Ayla Girl is a good example of somebody who I think has said yes to the OnlyFans sex work thing.
00:14:43.700
And it seems to genuinely bring a lot of fruit to her life.
00:14:47.660
But I think for, like, a lot of women that kind of get romanticized into sex work, they forget about their future selves because they think their future selves will be grateful for all the money.
00:14:57.620
When in reality, most women that do OnlyFans don't make that much money.
00:15:01.020
And also, you have to deal with the fact that your sex and body is public error.
00:15:06.060
From the answer, it sounds like the lens you're using to determine your answer is purely individualistic.
00:15:16.520
So, if it is mostly individualistic, and if your position, in this debate anyway, is you're taking the affirmative that feminism is good for society, which is beyond individualistic, right?
00:15:30.080
So, now you have to add in one more variable when you're coaching your friend here because what they determine they might like or not like in the future may not be tied directly necessarily to what's best for society.
00:15:47.340
The caveat to that that I would basically poke is if individualism doesn't lead to a flourishing society, then why is it the case that the most individualistic country, i.e. America, is one of the most predominant countries in the world?
00:16:00.400
There's a certain level of responsibility we should have to our community, essentially.
00:16:04.160
I just think that individualism often seems to somehow, I'm not even sure exactly the process, do this to some degree, which is why we have most individualistic nations being the strongest, most kind of happiest, highest GDP.
00:16:23.980
Well, I mean, if you define good as merely productive, you could definitely do counterarguments of like, let's say Epstein-Neilin got off the ground and it's actually logically and practically possible for you to do horrific things in a society and still produce a high GDP.
00:16:43.560
But the other aspect of what you just said is that individualism, if it produces all of these goods, but what's best for society as a necessity is replacing your population, would you agree that we're not doing good in replacing our population?
00:17:03.480
I think birth rates being low is, it's very tied to kind of like liberal financial success and it's harmful.
00:17:14.940
I think actually going to Israel and seeing all these like liberal left-leaning Jewish people having 90,000 babies is a very, it's very interesting.
00:17:24.500
It's a very big counter to the standard liberal of like the more money a country makes, the less.
00:17:29.120
Well, the reason I brought that up is if the next generation of children and the generation after that is a necessity and a necessary component for a good society, regardless of what we agree on good is.
00:17:40.480
If that's necessary, I would argue that every form of feminism that I've seen, which is largely tied to individualism, doesn't actually have a way of advocating for that in a meaningful way.
00:17:52.940
So the philosophy itself is missing what I would call deontology or in simple terms, any duties.
00:18:00.340
So any feminism you don't like that I also don't like, there's no duties, there's no real true duties to say you're a feminist.
00:18:09.640
And even in the version that you're proposing, that's anti those other crazy ones, right?
00:18:16.040
Even your position, there's no act, there's no real duty for a woman who's a feminist to produce the next generation.
00:18:23.540
And so this is why I measure it up against other cultures or other worldviews, in this case Christianity, has a built in, not that this debate is feminism versus Christianity, I just want to bring it in as a reference.
00:18:37.640
Is the missing element of duties, there's no obligation for you to influence another woman to have a child in a meaningful nudging way, right?
00:18:50.040
I'm not talking about punishment for not having-
00:18:55.360
It, you would agree that feminism largely from the start until now is not only, I wouldn't say indifferent to family, but actually advocates against it.
00:19:07.120
The one you're arguing for, as I understand it, you're like, no, I've met a lot of feminists who want to have kids.
00:19:16.040
But you'd have to concede that the most part, the propaganda that we see, the dominant narrative is basically anti-family, anti-children, pro-boss babe, go get it girl, sell your body girl, if you got it, flaunt it, this kind of thing, right?
00:19:32.760
And the reason I bring this up is that that kind of narrative, that kind of worldview is purely self-centered and doesn't actually produce what's necessary for a thriving society.
00:19:44.460
So even if I granted you, I don't concede to your metrics of what's good, but even if I granted you the whole thing, right, well-being, happiness, this, everything you could add, right, money, housing, whatever you want to add in there, it's all fairly meaningless if there's not a component that values reproducing society itself as a virtue, even.
00:20:16.280
I think there's a valid critique which is saying feminism doesn't celebrate motherhood enough.
00:20:23.780
I think it's complicated when you look at antinatalism because antinatalism isn't a purely feminist thing.
00:20:32.160
There's a number of different philosophies and worldviews that are antinatalist, right?
00:20:35.760
And communism would be another example of one that tends to often be very antinatalist.
00:20:40.900
And I think antinatalism is death culty behavior.
00:20:46.240
I want to ask you, why do you think it is that feminism, I agree there's antinatalists that maybe aren't feminists,
00:20:51.500
but why do you think it is that most feminists and the history of feminism is largely inextricably tied to an antinatalist sentiment?
00:21:02.400
So this might be where we first differ pretty significantly.
00:21:06.060
I think a large reason for why feminism has been so antinatalist is because the family and the duty of motherhood has been weaponized historically as a chain to enforce women stay home,
00:21:19.760
not be able to work, and not be able to basically choose autonomy.
00:21:22.820
Before and during the suffragette movement, do you know that primarily the women who were being challenged to maybe grab their vote,
00:21:33.440
they opposed it willfully, happily, and they weren't under the impression that they were chained to their husband's lazy boy, right?
00:21:45.280
They took a position that, not only won, they didn't want the guarantor position of, let's say, credit.
00:21:54.640
They didn't want to be able to be also drafted and put into dangerous situations.
00:21:59.080
They also had a nice, hearty, moral lens that they all shared.
00:22:06.100
They were sort of like the moral barometers of the time.
00:22:08.380
And so they were actually, I would argue that pre-feminism, especially during that time frame where the, let's face it,
00:22:15.720
the really ugly women who couldn't find husbands were like, we need power, right?
00:22:23.840
All of the married women that you say are chained to their husbands, right?
00:22:27.600
They came out and said, we don't want the vote.
00:22:29.780
The suffragette movement actually stopped, tried to physically stop them from showing up to vote against their own vote.
00:22:38.040
So why is it that the majority of women at that time didn't share the sentiment that they were enslaved?
00:22:44.600
If they were enslaved, wouldn't they be coming out and saying, free us, free us from this terrible atrocity called motherhood?
00:22:52.060
Well, it's a little bit of a misnomer to tie their aversion to getting the vote to them claiming that they're not chained necessarily, right?
00:23:00.460
Their aversion to the vote was specifically because of drafting and some concerns about debt.
00:23:05.640
However, as the suffragette movement started taking off and women realized that black men were going to get the vote,
00:23:10.840
they began flocking towards the suffragette movement and became largely embraced.
00:23:15.120
And so while I would agree that the early suffragettes were some of the most dislikable women on the planet,
00:23:20.440
that doesn't change the fact that as time goes on, it very quickly becomes a deeply subsumed belief that increasingly most women across North America desired.
00:23:32.300
Okay. And I put it in my opening, the increase of women voting, the sentiment is more power, challenging the man, equalizing the power, offsetting the disparity of power.
00:23:44.600
Do you find it a bit ironic that every, that predominantly what women vote for enhances the power of man, essentially?
00:23:54.160
Because you're talking about big government, essentially, like it increases like welfare state.
00:23:57.840
I just think it's disanalogous to compare these two things.
00:24:00.200
I don't, I don't think that like social safety networks, for example, is in any way.
00:24:06.500
Yeah, I would agree that gun laws are, are more controlling.
00:24:10.880
The issue is that regulation, the reason that people like desire regulation is not necessarily in, in, in confluence or in, um, sorry, I'm getting tired.
00:24:23.040
It's, it's not, uh, in dissonance with wanting freedom, right?
00:24:27.460
There's this idea, it's actually popular within the church that to have true freedom, you need some level of like structure and like systems around you.
00:24:34.060
And so most liberals who are pro institutions and pro welfare states are also very pro freedom.
00:24:41.640
These two things aren't inherently disanalogous.
00:24:43.280
Do you, do you think that there's something about the nature or ontology of women, females, uh, that they're drawn to voting for more safe things, uh, against liberty, against, um, basically like here's a way of putting it rhetorically.
00:24:59.400
When women vote largely, they're voting for basically a daycare center.
00:25:05.040
They're like, they're, they're, they want society because it's their nature to, to basically look like a safe room where no one gets hurt because they see the world as kind of their, their children.
00:25:18.180
This is why the, the question of the nature of men and women, uh, which we'll get into gender roles, uh, in society, that the nature of men and women actually directs and informs where they end up in the world, in society.
00:25:31.680
And so I think the feminist movement is some type of reaction that, um, tries to compensate for some perception of like, uh, inequality, but then overcompensates and throws women into situations where they really, they wouldn't end up if, if the choice was there anyway, for the most part.
00:25:50.720
Yeah. But the key part of the key element is the choice, right? Like choice and free will and ability to self-determine is like one of the most fundamental, it's one of the most fundamental things to our faith as well is this idea of free will and salvation.
00:26:05.880
Can a blind person use their free will to get the pilot job?
00:26:12.400
Yeah, of course there's biological limitations.
00:26:14.220
So that's what I'm talking about. It's not the will.
00:26:15.980
If I could just answer you just a little bit at length, cause you said a number of things. So to respond to your like care orientation and voting, I would agree that in general, women tend to vote left and seem to be very care oriented. I just think that that's a good thing about society. I think a society that takes care of people who can't take care of themselves very well is good, right? I believe in social safety networks. I think that they're valuable to society. And I think the fact that women brought that into our policies is good.
00:26:41.900
While I'd also grant you that there are elements of major overstep. For example, gun laws. I'm not actually opposed to gun laws. I just think what happens with gun laws, for example, is the people that advocate them have no sophistication in gun technology.
00:26:56.240
Okay. So, well, yeah, women, generally speaking, don't have knowledge of how to operate a gun or have the strength to even operate a gun for the most part. And they're voting for gun laws and they don't know anything about guns. So that's what I'm pointing to is that their nature is actually towards safety, but they're actually asking men to basically legislate the safety and enforce the safety.
00:27:23.600
Again, if feminism is a thing, right, that you're arguing for, definitionally, like I talked, I asked you before the debate, is there a correction going on? So if feminism exists, it starts with the assumption that there's some sort of inequality, something that needs to be corrected, or even lightly that there's a disparity of power in the balance, right? A balance of power.
00:27:49.380
Let's go back. In the 1920s, could women own land?
00:27:53.280
Could they go to school of their own free choice?
00:28:05.160
But leading, you know, as time goes on, they didn't even get credit cards until 1970.
00:28:10.680
I guess maybe a follow-up question to that would be, you probably don't think it's good that women can work or have land.
00:28:19.320
I don't even think it's good that all men necessarily should vote.
00:28:25.720
Because land and voting, all these things were tied together back then.
00:28:29.820
And so the land question is, should women have land?
00:28:34.140
Well, if you bought the land, what do you have land for?
00:28:36.640
It's like you're not going to be the one defending it, ultimately.
00:28:44.860
Well, what I mean by that is this idea where what you're talking about the enforcement arm, and we've talked about this before.
00:28:50.100
I think it's a very silly idea to basically steal the valor of a small select group of young, able-bodied men with a penchant for violence who are willing to enact order as saying that this is like men doing this thing.
00:29:04.180
Because it's like, well, sort of, but it's specifically, it's the same men that you're relying on.
00:29:09.540
Do you get any of your feminist policy passed without the young, strapping group of men with a penchant for violence?
00:29:18.160
Yeah, most policy isn't passed through violence.
00:29:33.600
The point is that there's a difference between a group of men and a group of women.
00:29:38.000
We're not saying that because a group of men hold this position of power that these other men get some type of privilege, right?
00:29:45.820
We're saying that men collectively, descriptively, that you're trying to say, oh, a penchant for violence, as if that's a bad thing.
00:30:00.660
No, that would only be because if you think that I think violence is inherently evil, which I don't.
00:30:06.600
So, you agree that if a woman had the money to buy land, you would agree that she couldn't actually defend it from intruders?
00:30:16.980
But the reality is that the man would be able to defend it pretty similarly, especially with guns, right?
00:30:22.580
If the land-owning situation is a microcosm of society, does the man, in your view of feminism, have an obligation to defend anything?
00:30:36.980
Whether it's at the land level or just a stranger walking down the street?
00:30:44.740
The men that do are the individuals who join the enforcement arm as authority.
00:30:49.820
Well, typically the police are required to respond.
00:30:54.000
The police actually have no obligation in the U.S. to defend your property or your body.
00:31:01.480
Well, most cops don't intervene because it's hard to call the cops as things are going through.
00:31:13.460
They think the cops are legally bound or somehow obligated to protect you and your property.
00:31:21.120
Their job is to respond to a violation of law or something else.
00:31:28.760
The violation could be someone stole something.
00:31:30.980
But as far as defending it, the obligation is for you and your family to defend your life and others.
00:31:39.620
Just to be clear, though, this is really muddy, right?
00:31:41.260
Because depending on the state that you're in, your ability to defend your land is actually very criminally questionable.
00:31:46.760
Because in some states, you can't really defend your land, right?
00:31:49.500
And so this idea that you're saying, like, cops don't have to defend you.
00:32:00.440
A lot of times, say you have a trespasser, you don't even have to defend your land.
00:32:03.900
You can oftentimes call the cops as long as you have a sign up, and they can show up and kick you off the land.
00:32:08.740
That would be the cop protecting your land, not you protecting your land.
00:32:17.520
Do you know how many self-defense instances are reported in the U.S. alone?
00:32:21.000
Oh, I'm sure super high, which is why there's less protections.
00:32:27.920
Well, why is it that if you're defending feminism, and that includes females voting,
00:32:33.040
and females vote with patterns that lead to people's inability to use their own weapon?
00:32:43.000
Is it a good thing if the government passes legislation where a man or a woman has constrained
00:32:53.440
You would have to give me the exact specific policy.
00:32:55.000
Is it generally a good thing for society to restrict one's capability of using a gun in
00:33:05.000
Again, I actually can't give you a super clear...
00:33:08.080
There are going to be instances where I think using a gun for self-defense is bad.
00:33:11.300
I don't like Florida's stand-your-ground policy, but there are also instances where you should
00:33:17.060
If there's over a million, and that's only the ones that are reported, uses per year of
00:33:22.360
self-defense with a gun in the U.S., if that person wasn't allowed to use their gun in those
00:33:30.080
instances, would that be a good thing or a bad thing?
00:33:32.380
That would be, for most of those cases, a bad thing.
00:33:34.960
If women voting results progressively in those instances not being able to occur because of
00:33:43.420
restrictive gun laws, is that a good thing or a bad thing?
00:33:50.720
Women vote in favor, tilted highly, to higher constraint of liberty, and especially regarding
00:34:02.220
Yeah, but so do black men at a higher level and black women, and older generations, especially
00:34:07.120
this last election, also tend to vote in this direction.
00:34:09.340
So when you're reducing these voting things, which are very multifaceted and complicated...
00:34:15.260
No, the disparity with men and men is not the same as women, though.
00:34:18.260
If you don't mind, just let me finish my thoughts.
00:34:19.960
What you're doing, though, is you're taking these extremely complicated, multifaceted policy
00:34:25.060
things, and you're reducing it down to man versus woman, when that's not really the lens
00:34:29.100
by which you should be analyzing things like self-defense law.
00:34:35.560
Why are you saying it's multifaceted if I can demonstrate statistically that women collectively
00:34:40.720
voting, vote toward gun legislation and other things that restrict your ability to defend
00:34:48.100
And men, even if you found men that didn't, the disparity between men and women is astounding
00:34:56.220
Sure, but that would then be presupposing that the women voting that way are specifically
00:34:59.920
because they want to reduce your self-defense things.
00:35:06.100
No, no, no, their nature is to vote and act in defense, in nurturing, in protection kind
00:35:15.760
Sure, but most women would actually probably be, like, most feminists, for example, I think
00:35:19.160
the gun is, like, the greatest feminist equalizer ever, right?
00:35:22.000
A lot of feminists are very pro-self-defense for pretty obvious reasons.
00:35:26.040
Yeah, but that doesn't deal with the fact that when women vote, even if I granted you
00:35:34.660
They're typically going to be voting for things like abortion policy and, like, welfare state.
00:35:38.300
Why is it that they vote in favor of policies that restrict your ability for self-defense,
00:35:43.840
They don't vote in favor of policies that restrict your self-defense.
00:35:46.400
They typically vote for Democrat politicians who embody their values more at a broad caretaking
00:35:53.880
So women vote not based on particular things that they look into, but a general feeling
00:35:58.820
of the person who's talking embodies their value.
00:36:03.040
I don't know why you're strongmaning me like that.
00:36:09.140
Well, when you look at a politician and you're deciding to vote for them, most people are,
00:36:14.220
like, one to three main things that they vote for.
00:36:16.720
It's usually for women, some level of women's rights, economy, and housing crisis, especially
00:36:23.220
And so when they're looking at a politician that they're deciding on, those are typically
00:36:27.000
the top three things that they're deciding to vote for.
00:36:29.040
They're not like going down the line and being like, man, does this person let me do self-defense
00:36:33.440
In fact, a lot of women will rail against Democrats when they try to do self-defense.
00:36:36.520
I know, but this is really bizarre because the narrative from women is that men are dangerous
00:36:40.440
and they, you know, you got to watch out for men.
00:36:45.980
But the thing is, it's bizarre to have a narrative that primarily is women need to be protected,
00:36:53.500
men are dangerous, we got to look at this assault stuff, people are essayed all the time, and
00:37:03.040
Like, if the outcome of voting is that not only you as a woman can't legally use a gun,
00:37:09.380
but also men can't use a gun to even protect you properly, what are they prioritizing above
00:37:19.700
That's what women voted for a lot more than this?
00:37:25.620
When has feminism had much more sophisticated economic policy?
00:37:30.420
Your argument for feminism being good is based on the economy.
00:37:36.320
Yeah, but that's not the same thing as women voting for the, like, using feminism as an
00:37:43.620
What do you think, from your view of feminism, is the most important issue given that you
00:37:50.980
The most, the single most, like, the top, the top of the top.
00:37:56.340
What's the most important thing from your feminist view?
00:38:01.100
I don't, feminism is not the main thing that makes me vote.
00:38:03.060
It's usually economic policy and foreign policy.
00:38:13.160
Okay, so if there was something to vote for for feminists, you're going to say, vote
00:38:20.840
I would be most, for most women, I would say probably feminism shouldn't be your number
00:38:26.100
I think, like, the housing crisis and the wealth disparity is a much bigger issue than, like,
00:38:30.520
And I think you've got, like, you're being a gender opportunist.
00:38:34.940
I think feminists voting for, like, purely feminist stuff isn't even that common.
00:38:39.960
Again, most women in this election voted for housing, economy, and then after that was
00:38:48.140
Okay, so I guess I'm going to ask you, is there a correct feminist view?
00:38:54.480
Feminism is, like, a constant moving concept that's developing through conversation, like
00:39:01.260
So if concepts, there's no correct concept for feminism, meaning that means that there's
00:39:10.880
There's no, when you say correct, I guess I'm answering it, and, like, there isn't a perfectly
00:39:14.920
fixed idea of what feminism is, because feminism is fundamentally a dialogue, like most philosophies,
00:39:25.460
So, like, I obviously think my version of feminism is the best version of feminism, but
00:39:32.140
Is there any standard that determines your version of feminism is the best or the correct
00:39:40.600
I think it leads to the highest level of, like, opportunity and flourishing for both,
00:39:47.640
The thing is, if you say it's just a concept, like, premise one is, feminism is just a concept.
00:39:57.060
Like, the follow of those two, right, if it's just a concept and just a dialogue, then when
00:40:02.780
we ask what the application is, that means, like, let's, like, use an analogy.
00:40:06.340
Um, I design a car that's just a concept in the computer, and then I go, okay, it's a
00:40:16.380
And so, what I'm asking you is, what is your concept of feminism, and how is it accurately
00:40:27.340
Because if it's just a concept, just concepts, do we agree, concepts themselves don't make
00:40:36.740
I think, like, social normative concepts are, like, the backbone by which zeitgeists emerge.
00:40:41.680
Like, I think the way that we view the world is rooted in concepts.
00:40:49.980
Like, by, like, it depends on what you mean by act on matter, right?
00:40:53.420
Like, me sitting here talking about feminism, am I acting on matter?
00:40:56.860
Okay, look, are you a concept, or are you a material body?
00:41:03.240
Okay, so concepts, do concepts knock over cups?
00:41:23.480
So, if concepts immaterial, um, concepts being that they can't knock over a cup, a concept
00:41:39.740
Democracy started as a, as a political philosophy, right?
00:41:42.800
Like, like, I don't know, I don't, I don't know what you'd do with philosophy if you think
00:41:49.160
I didn't say concepts don't have a relation to reality.
00:41:52.960
I'm making a distinction because you said feminism is just a concept.
00:41:58.360
It's a concept, it's a dialogue, it's an action.
00:42:00.240
If it's, if it, well, that's what I'm trying to ask you.
00:42:04.460
Sure, just, just to be clear, because I don't know why you're making all these, like, weird
00:42:08.260
A lot of times what happens, and the way that I think that how people create, and this is
00:42:12.520
honestly, like, platonic forms at this point, is we, like, understand the concept of a thing.
00:42:16.940
So, maybe the concept of the thing that you care about is women are being unfair to men,
00:42:23.840
But what happens when you hold that belief is that it shapes how you view the world,
00:42:28.880
it shapes what information that you take in to reinforce that, and it shapes how you
00:42:33.460
We agree that concepts inform action, but concepts are not actual things that do anything.
00:42:38.920
So, that's why I'm asking you, if feminism is just a concept, what's this bridge between
00:42:47.060
Like, for instance, what does it look like for you to apply feminism in your ideal...
00:42:57.680
Probably in North America, by and large, nuclear seems to be the best structure.
00:43:02.340
I would prefer more intergenerational than what we have.
00:43:04.900
I think intergenerational homes tend to be better, but I would also be open to, like,
00:43:09.200
more commune-style living, like, village families.
00:43:12.960
Okay, so a family unit, are you saying a mother?
00:43:19.260
By and large, or at least two parents that, like, occupy those types of roles.
00:43:22.420
Okay, so basically a traditional-looking, reflective of a traditional family.
00:43:29.900
And you're saying, from your view, that's feminist?
00:43:34.500
I would just say that that's, like, what's good for society.
00:43:39.040
Okay, so if that's good for society, is that counter-feminism?
00:43:42.180
So, can I actually ask you a question, just to see if you understand me?
00:43:46.200
How, on my list of, like, top five ideas and things that I care most about, where do you
00:43:53.180
Like, do you think feminism is, like, number one?
00:44:01.240
I'll debate with you on it, because I'm interested in it.
00:44:05.240
No, because I think it's done most of what it needed to do.
00:44:09.060
What did it do, it convinced a bunch of chicks to kill their babies, or to delete their babies?
00:44:16.780
Yeah, abortion, obviously, which is, like, a tragedy, but it also did things like let
00:44:21.160
women have access to the workplace, allow them to access education, allow them to self-determine,
00:44:25.580
allow them to own land, allow them to have paying power, allow them to have leverage
00:44:34.160
You can't call everything that I say prattle because you want to interrupt.
00:44:36.840
I didn't see the word prattle once this whole time.
00:44:44.160
I'm having flashbacks from our last debate and Jay's debate.
00:44:47.620
I just want to, because I don't want to forget what you're saying, is that it's actually
00:44:55.400
Women could work before largely what you think feminism is.
00:45:03.680
The feminist always comes in with this story that feminism saved the woman from the home
00:45:13.100
It just happened to be the case that traditional values were the norm and rightly so that women
00:45:18.720
valued in their society and in their home the position of the mother as one of the most
00:45:23.880
important, still today, one of the most important roles to play for women in society.
00:45:34.720
They just chose the value correctly to stay at home, that the best thing for society and
00:45:39.960
their family is to raise good children, to be present with their children, to organize
00:45:45.860
the house, to make the house a small type of organized government, if you will.
00:45:52.520
Feminism came in and smeared what motherhood is.
00:45:58.580
It basically poisoned the well and said, that's icky.
00:46:06.780
More debt for women, more sexually transmitted diseases for women, higher body counts for women,
00:46:16.640
What do you think the biggest leverage is for women?
00:46:23.060
If men's leverage is force, brute force, aggression, what do you think women's leverage is?
00:46:36.900
Largely, I know you take a very particular unorthodox feminist view, but largely, if we're generally
00:46:45.180
arguing against feminism, has feminism perverted and sold women's leverage, which is their sex,
00:46:53.240
and convinced them to completely make it for free, as if that's liberation?
00:46:59.500
The sexual revolution, I think, is kind of shit, but I would not fully agree with that
00:47:03.300
Is it empowering for women to collect body counts?
00:47:09.200
Can I go back to actually responding to your entire thing?
00:47:11.640
No, I don't think this idea of collecting body counts is good.
00:47:14.320
The issue is that most women don't think collecting body counts is good.
00:47:20.140
Yes, you deal with a lot of OnlyFans models, but that's obviously not the average woman.
00:47:25.360
So, just to go back to this narrativizing that you did.
00:47:38.660
The main thing is that they never received any ability to convert that work into anything
00:47:44.140
leverageable within society, like money or ownership.
00:47:49.340
Because being able to have money and able to liberate some level of autonomy is one of
00:47:56.460
For example, if a woman is in an abusive relationship with a husband who is harming her and her children,
00:48:01.440
back in the 1910s, when her farm labor would never translate to any goods and to anything
00:48:06.160
that she can claim as her own, she can never leave that situation.
00:48:10.360
In this situation, let's say she was liberated and she was working.
00:48:14.620
Do you know who's going to abuse the kids then?
00:48:18.020
No, the people who are watching the kids because the mother's not home watching the kids.
00:48:22.160
So, it's like, you're like, you set up this hypothetical where if the woman could work,
00:48:27.960
then she can set up this sort of like dowry, escape dowry, right?
00:48:32.660
But no, hold on, hold on, the thing is, if the woman's out in the workforce, she's not
00:48:42.520
That's not what I said, and if you keep erecting strawmans of me, then we can't talk.
00:48:47.360
What I said is that what happens when, back in the 1910s era, is that they were working,
00:48:52.740
women have always been working through all of history, just as hard as men, just doing
00:49:02.060
A lot of times, they're working all day, taking care of the children, and then also
00:49:05.860
milking the animals, helping plow, doing willow work.
00:49:15.540
It's more physically destructive on the body, but in converse, women are-
00:49:27.740
Well, I'm talking about, well, what's the risk and reward?
00:49:36.520
You're saying, back in the day, women are working on the land, and sweating, and taking
00:49:40.500
care of the kids, and cooking, and all these things.
00:49:46.920
You said the problem is, in the instance where they're beaten, they, what?
00:49:54.340
So, the beaten was an example of why it's really important to have something like purchasing
00:49:58.500
It's really important to have some level of ownership of, like, goods, so that you can,
00:50:02.000
like, exchange and move and, like, autonomize within the world.
00:50:05.160
Like, the exchange of goods and basic economics is, like, one of the most fundamental things that
00:50:12.220
It's very, very important to be able to own goods, to be able to exchange those goods for
00:50:16.600
other goods, and to have some level of choice as a result of that.
00:50:19.940
And women would work and be barred access to ownership of these things.
00:50:24.320
That sounds like you're arguing for a norm based on an exception.
00:50:28.840
If you're assuming that there's enough women in that scenario who are going to be in a
00:50:33.980
situation that justifies that they have some sort of escape plan, your entire foundational
00:50:39.660
argument is this, women should have purchasing power and be able to have money to do things
00:50:45.640
in the event they have to leave their husband or their family, whereas you're basically presenting
00:50:51.220
one scenario and making a rule based on one potential scenario where a woman needs an escape
00:51:00.400
That's one of the reasons why it's important for women to have rights.
00:51:04.840
One of the reasons why it's so important to give the society the ability to vote is
00:51:09.580
because it transfers your autonomy and authority to an elected individual, and that individual
00:51:19.620
And as a woman, until you have the right to vote, you don't have any ability to have a
00:51:31.380
I will tell you right now why you don't have a say.
00:51:43.500
Okay, let's do one, because then I'll forget what you said, and then I won't be able to
00:51:47.640
Okay, so you just said women need voting because they need to be able to influence policy and
00:51:59.440
Okay, so women have a say in the society, but women aren't obligated to uphold and to
00:52:13.500
So you're arguing for women to be able to vote from the allowance of men.
00:52:24.900
No, a small group of able, but, well, first of all, again, you're going down the enforcement
00:52:39.520
You don't get to turn to women as a man who's not in any of these enforcement arms.
00:52:46.000
Because what you're doing is you're looking at policemen and soldiers who are doing a
00:52:49.980
duty to their nation by protecting people's rights.
00:52:59.600
When men or women join the police force, they take a whole bunch of promises and solidarities.
00:53:04.280
Just like when a doctor joins the doctor force.
00:53:07.520
They have to take a whole bunch, like the Hippocrat is, hold on, oath.
00:53:11.000
And so the idea of duty, yes, once you enroll in a job voluntarily and agree to both the
00:53:16.680
responsibilities and the benefits and the power and the wage that is conferred by that,
00:53:21.960
Police officers have a duty to enforce the law.
00:53:31.480
So Hak Tua, who's not an informed voter, could vote because she's a woman, right?
00:53:35.620
You just said she has a duty to be an informed voter.
00:53:37.900
Yeah, but that doesn't mean that like you would take away.
00:53:41.000
If you, if, is there any consequence to not fulfilling your duty in your worldview?
00:53:49.660
Yeah, you get a situation where the politicians increasingly don't represent you and then you
00:53:53.900
bitch and whine about how bad the politicians are, but they're bad because you're never actually
00:53:59.080
Look, would you agree that the act of voting for men collectively, the act of voting is
00:54:15.780
I'm saying when, when a bunch of men vote and they say, I'm going to vote, they're basically,
00:54:21.200
they're, they're signing something and checking something off that might become policy and
00:54:35.500
No, police and the, and the military and everyone else, right?
00:54:37.920
When I outsource the force by voting, I'm basically agreeing with other men in my position that
00:54:51.900
Uh, this is like not the, that is the basis for voting representation, right?
00:54:57.660
If you don't have representation and you're, you're, you're basically representatives don't
00:55:02.360
represent you and, and they get all wonky, right?
00:55:06.300
That's why men can take up arms and actually have a revolutionary fight, right?
00:55:18.100
The issue that you're doing here is you're, again, you're creating this like simplified narrative
00:55:22.160
to work to like your argument when things are not that simple.
00:55:27.220
The, when you vote, all you're saying is that I'm willing to participate to be a citizen
00:55:33.560
But participating as a citizen is an agreement to not rebel, right?
00:55:37.600
Uh, I suppose more like not to break the rules.
00:55:41.880
No, not just, no, not just breaking the rules, taking over the government with force with other
00:55:49.860
So when men collectively vote and they say, I'm forfeiting my, my ability to get collectivized
00:55:56.180
with other men, hold on a second, dude, hold on a second, you can vote and then be dissatisfied
00:56:01.580
with the government and rebelling, you're not forfeiting it.
00:56:10.360
If I vote and I feel disenfranchised or lied to, I could still do two things, right?
00:56:16.220
I could either rebel or I could vote again the next time, right?
00:56:23.060
Every, I'm saying every time you vote, you're choosing not to do violence.
00:56:26.380
I'm not saying you can't do violence the next time around.
00:56:28.340
I'm saying in that instance, you're choosing to vote instead of violence, right?
00:56:38.240
I can't because all you're doing is building this like really silly narrative.
00:56:42.540
I am building a strong argument against you and you're trying to stop it.
00:56:46.520
We get to like dialogue means we both get to talk.
00:56:51.060
If I don't get to respond to anything and you just keep like prattling, I'm like, I guess
00:56:58.700
Do you want to talk to my chair or do you want to talk to me?
00:57:02.380
The issue is that when you're simplifying this to like voting is just an agreement not to rebel
00:57:11.140
It, it, it, what it actually does is it, it bakes a half truth into something to build
00:57:16.140
The true part is that to some degree you're conferring your authority as an individual
00:57:22.620
But the issue is that it's not like every single time you're saying I'm not doing violence.
00:57:26.360
Uh, no, every time you vote, whether you know it or not, you're making an agreement that
00:57:31.160
you're not going to rebel and you're actually trusting that the government with its force
00:57:35.380
and its processes and its legislative branch and, and all of that is going to do its thing
00:57:41.720
When it doesn't, you either vote again or you throw a fit.
00:57:48.820
The reason I'm asking you to accept this premise is because if it's the case, even
00:57:54.500
from a reduced view, that men, when they vote forfeit their collective potential to overthrow
00:58:02.240
the government or even try, I'm asking you, what do women forfeit when they vote?
00:58:12.860
Tell me one time a woman, a collection of women overthrew a collection of men ever.
00:58:18.160
Hold on, you're just, you're, you're making a false dichotomy.
00:58:21.980
If you're going to engage in fallacies, I'm done.
00:58:22.980
Okay, so you're going to say, make a claim and then I'm going to ask you to justify it
00:58:27.260
Tell me one time, collection of women overthrew a collection of men.
00:58:33.400
You're making it sound like I am saying that women are overthrowing men and that it's the
00:58:37.660
zero-sum game between the sexes when in reality, when it comes to civil war, especially
00:58:41.720
with guns as the great equalizer, civil war means the participation typically of men and
00:58:46.640
It's oftentimes women in support roles like doing aid, but they can also participate in
00:58:51.280
Do you need them as support roles or can you have men as support roles?
00:58:53.780
It's usually going to be better to have women in support roles because you want-
00:58:57.900
This is why women are always used as nurses because men are better at the front line and
00:59:01.000
so it's better to have the support roles filled by women.
00:59:04.960
Can a bunch of nurses overthrow the government?
00:59:08.740
Yeah, if they all collectivized, sure, theoretically.
00:59:11.740
Of course a bunch of nurses could theoretically-
00:59:12.960
A bunch of nurses can collectivize and take over a bunch of military expert men.
00:59:24.280
Can a collection of people overthrow the government?
00:59:28.760
Can a collection of pure women who are nurses overthrow a collection of men?
00:59:33.540
Again, are we doing a zero-sum game where you're saying-
00:59:38.200
Can 100 women who are nurses overthrow 100 men who are not nurses?
00:59:43.760
This is like 100 men versus gorilla at this point.
00:59:46.100
No, in a bare fist fight to fist fight, women are weaker than men.
00:59:56.420
Every major historical event is always a combination of effort from everyone.
01:00:03.300
The reality is that everyone is participating when it comes to civil war.
01:00:22.420
No, you can absolutely just elect out of the draft at any time.
01:00:28.460
So, the fact of the matter is, there's never a time in human history that you can point
01:00:33.580
to where solely a collection of women took over a collection of men, whereas-
01:00:41.360
Jim Bob, I'm not holding on when all you're doing is making a straw map.
01:00:44.520
Is there a time in history where a group of men collectively took over a group of men?
01:00:56.000
You're acting like gender is this zero-sum game, and it's just not.
01:01:05.180
Do you think that when the military men go off, that women just have no role in any
01:01:16.880
I'm asking you, this is why I asked you, if men collectively, being that men can collectively
01:01:22.340
take over other men, because it's happened in the past and it'll happen in the future,
01:01:26.180
when we vote, we forfeit, we're basically agreeing.
01:01:29.520
We're not going to collectivize and take up our AR-15s and take the government, or try
01:01:36.040
If that's a trade-off that men have, I'm asking you, what are women forfeiting?
01:01:42.640
No, it's not the same thing because women can't collectively do the same thing.
01:01:49.060
The issue is, again, you're making this a zero-sum game, where you're acting like men
01:01:53.940
and women are these separate classes that are working independent.
01:02:00.120
Men and women are separate classes, like in Demonstrator right now.
01:02:04.820
Would you agree that this city we're in is largely dependent on men doing all of the
01:02:11.400
service needs and all the brute strength work, sewage, plumbing, fixing roads, what makes
01:02:18.380
this society actually function, would you largely agree that it's mostly men?
01:02:28.120
When you said, do you think it's men that make society function?
01:02:32.720
Of course, this is why this gender zero-sum game is so toxic.
01:02:38.300
Is that another concept that has no basis in reality?
01:02:40.320
It's the same shit that feminists who are being gender opportunists are doing, which
01:02:43.360
is where they're trying to act like if men are doing, good one, if men are doing something
01:02:48.860
and women are doing something, it must be a zero-sum game and they're just taking from
01:02:53.640
When the reality of all of history, this is what you were saying, the reality of all of
01:02:58.040
history is it is a collection of people working together, fulfilling different roles to make
01:03:03.740
The other feminist, Oliver, that I debated, kept saying, no.
01:03:09.920
When I distinguish the class between men and women, their ontology, their nature, and how
01:03:14.020
they are different, historically different, what they do in society is different, the
01:03:18.040
roles they play in society are different, the roles they play in war are different.
01:03:21.260
When I point this out, Oliver and Kyla, is that your name?
01:03:39.980
They could just take over towns if they wanted to.
01:03:55.240
This idea that young, able-bodied men with a penchant for violence can do a thing, like
01:04:07.400
All of the rights, all of the values that you care about-
01:04:09.340
You're not going to be necessarily joining the Civil War.
01:04:14.080
Are suddenly just not people in part of this either?
01:04:19.860
How would you feel if you ate breakfast this morning?
01:04:23.380
How would you feel if you didn't eat breakfast this morning?
01:04:31.540
So, the counter-argument that Brian or myself won't or probably won't-
01:04:45.160
Yes, you are, because you're talking about violent, penchant men willing to do it.
01:04:52.540
I moved it off of the violence, and I moved it into the working sector.
01:05:01.120
Underwater welding, tunnel building, road laying, erecting massive buildings with air conditioning
01:05:08.640
so Kyla can go, you know, go number two in a nice environment.
01:05:15.020
The leverage for men is still actually right there present.
01:05:18.260
If they stopped working, do you think a collection of women could take up all of those hard labor
01:05:27.220
Do you want, can I respond at any point or do you want to just keep going on?
01:05:30.080
Well, women have tons of leverage because they're the ones having your children.
01:05:33.480
They're killing off their children because of feminism.
01:05:49.100
They're taking care of all of like the nursing.
01:05:52.260
They're doing the dominant amount of volunteer work.
01:06:01.060
The ones having most of the children are feminists.
01:06:11.220
She conceded before that the best thing for the family is a traditional looking family,
01:06:15.460
That's more reflective of a Christian view, Christian praxis.
01:06:20.360
When I asked her, should feminism push against that traditional family value?
01:06:26.980
Now when I ask her about the roles in upkeeping society, right?
01:06:30.680
Whether or not they're equal between men and women, she concedes that they're not, right?
01:06:42.820
No, it's not a duty, but it is a job that some people unfortunately elect into, right?
01:06:50.080
How do you advocate for rights, whether it's men or women, and not advocate for the duty
01:07:23.560
Rights are a set of behaviors that are permitted.
01:07:29.980
No, they're prerequisite behavior that we think that everyone should have access to.
01:07:40.280
Give me one right that the government couldn't actually prohibit.
01:07:47.280
You have a right to believe in something in your head?
01:07:49.260
You have a right, yeah, you have a right, freedom of religion.
01:07:52.120
The government, no matter what, can't take your ability to believe in God.
01:07:58.300
I would say that's more of a duty or an internal working.
01:08:03.060
Well, this is the thing, you're unironically equivocating, because duty started as specific
01:08:15.460
Look, look, you're coming to the table specifically with feminism, so you're pointing to rights
01:08:20.000
specific to females that maybe men have and women don't.
01:08:23.400
So when I'm asking you the question, should women, let's say voting, is that a right?
01:08:35.860
But again, it's not men, it's the enforcement arm.
01:08:41.560
No, this is a fundamental distinction, because every single time you say men...
01:08:50.580
So say, for example, you've got a society, and the entire enforcement arm is made up of
01:08:56.460
Maybe it's a society where it's all black people.
01:09:04.460
This is a weird world in Narnia, where only black people...
01:09:09.840
It's not weird, Jim Bob, to reference black people being slaves.
01:09:13.200
That's like one of the most standard historical things.
01:09:17.420
Well, if they serve as the enforcement arm, it might be good.
01:09:19.920
Okay, so if, say, we have a world, and white people have all of the control, they're
01:09:24.100
in the governance, but the entire enforcement arm is a slave caste of black people, would
01:09:28.860
you say, then, that black people run society in that society?
01:09:32.160
I would say black people have a chance, and they actually demonstrate...
01:09:37.900
Not currently, but they could actually fight it.
01:09:44.760
But couldn't the white people just fight and...
01:09:53.380
If you swap out the blacks and they're women slaves, guess what?
01:09:56.620
Can the women actually change the nature of the world?
01:10:04.560
No, they get to sexually select who they're going to be with.
01:10:08.780
Women don't get to select who they have sex with.
01:10:12.880
We're not talking about the slave situation anymore.
01:10:15.840
Yeah, and then you moved on beyond that to go back to the...
01:10:18.620
Yes, because we were talking about blacks and whites, and then you moved on to men at a broader category.
01:10:22.900
But I kept the slave situation, replaced the black slaves with women, right?
01:10:29.040
In your example, you said, who's running the show?
01:10:39.660
In a scenario where there's an oppressor, a strong arm, and a group of men who are the weak arm,
01:10:45.880
the winner is the one with the most force, correct?
01:10:49.440
So the black people, right, in this scenario...
01:10:55.160
Well, actually, that's a really good point, right?
01:10:56.160
When you look at, for example, wars, it's not always just the one that has the best force that wins.
01:11:00.480
Israel and the Six-Day War is a really good example of a country that was positioned against all of the Arab nations.
01:11:07.120
They technically had less force, but they had superior mind, and so they won, right?
01:11:12.520
So this idea that it's just blunt force that wins out in these things is the most...
01:11:20.340
You just said, between these two arms, whichever one has more force wins.
01:11:33.360
Two military groups, and they're both equally smart,
01:11:38.140
if the one who's smart, just as smart as the other, has superior force,
01:11:50.200
Give me an actual real-life example where force is perfectly equated.
01:11:54.820
You're saying if tactics was perfectly equated, then force wins.
01:12:02.320
The power is never perfectly equated in boxing.
01:12:04.400
You just said, give me a potential example where it's equated,
01:12:08.400
and then the more powerful one wins over the tactics.
01:12:11.660
No, typically in boxing, it's oftentimes like most of the greatest boxers,
01:12:15.700
a lot of times are people who are incredibly talented and tactical.
01:12:19.000
Like Mike Tyson wasn't just good because he punched really hard.
01:12:21.840
He was also really good because he had good weave,
01:12:23.740
he had good footwork, and he also had powerful punch.
01:12:28.280
I think Floyd Mayweather is a good example of somebody
01:12:34.940
Floyd Mayweather is a great example of somebody
01:12:39.280
but they have incredible footwork, and they're insanely fast,
01:12:45.760
We've got to take a brief break for little chats to come through.
01:12:49.840
If you want your chat to be read, we're doing Streamlabs,
01:13:07.560
And not so bright, stop showing us your armpits.
01:13:15.160
So I have a neck injury, so when I was streaming,
01:13:29.360
And you made like 300 bucks from him tonight, so...
01:13:41.140
Erudite, you said that women should have barriers removed
01:13:49.100
when the majority of women said they didn't want suffrage?
01:13:56.760
We shouldn't have been forcing women to have the vote.
01:14:02.560
I just think that we inevitably would have resulted
01:14:46.280
to the philosophy and the worldview and the praxis,
01:14:49.960
But that's why I'm pointing, Giovanni, you retard,
01:14:52.820
is that feminism doesn't actually have a praxis
01:15:30.800
How else did widows maintain their inheritance?
01:15:34.040
As to voting, they were subject to the same limitations as men.
01:15:50.400
Thank you, Brian S., for your big $200 soup chat.
01:15:58.380
Reminder, guys, if you want to get a message in,
01:16:23.360
or YouTube and Apple would have taken $102 total
01:16:30.520
Also, you can support through Venmo and Cash App.
01:16:35.700
without any of these platforms taking their cut.
01:16:57.500
If we drop it to 69, I'll pull it back up then.
01:17:15.080
There's better low-hanging fruit you could reach.
01:17:37.500
If we have about an hour and a half left on that.
01:18:13.100
Do you guys want to just pick up where you left off?
01:19:09.200
feminism is good and this is how I'm measuring it,
01:19:12.420
and you think women should have rights, let's say,
01:19:32.780
whatever you want to call the enforcement arm, right?
01:19:43.140
is that the enforcement arm is given legitimacy
01:19:48.920
So do you agree that there's an enforcement arm?
01:20:02.100
because it's a bunch of men that can do violence.
01:20:05.960
Then they would be a rebel group and they would be...
01:20:09.200
Yeah, but that's not what either of us are talking about.
01:20:12.900
neither of us are talking about rebel groups right now.
01:20:14.740
We're talking about what the enforcement arm is.
01:20:27.480
The enforcement arm doesn't ever get to decide that.
01:20:36.680
and the enforcement arm says we're not enforcing that,
01:20:50.080
The Socratic method is asking each other questions
01:21:29.320
So I'm obviously meaning the entire enforcement arm,
01:21:41.880
Yeah, the enforcement arm could take over Trump
02:18:13.060
then refute it expeditiously in jordan peterson's
02:18:20.540

02:58:46.940
me there you go okay got jason here thank you jason jason castle donated 69
02:58:53.380
dollars nietzsche's concept of master morality supports my view of tactics the
02:59:01.420
unashamedly shaping the battlefield not dodging power with moral excuses he's
02:59:06.820
got he's got a follow-up coming in here in just a moment that was a crazy
02:59:11.360
statement jason castle literally went to chat gbt and rolled his forehead on it
02:59:15.520
and said nietzsche some castle donated 69 dollars
02:59:18.780
also i find it funny that you claim to be a christian but you reference nietzsche in the
02:59:24.780
antichrist nietzsche states christianity as the one great curse
02:59:28.780
i also cited heidegger who's a nazi do you think that that means that i also am a
02:59:33.440
nazi like yes you can cite people who disagree with multiple things that also
02:59:38.640
have good criticisms of other systems like what a non-statement
02:59:42.100
so guys if you want to get a message in 69 tts also i just wanted to pull this one
02:59:47.060
back up just to give you an example of what i'm talking about
02:59:49.060
it's the way that you know if somebody typically i mean i guess you can custom it
02:59:53.260
in if you're on desktop you can customize an input
02:59:56.000
to make it 99 dollars and 99 cents if it's ending in 99 cents typically that
03:00:02.280
so if you're using uh apple ios you're using a youtube app either on an iphone
03:00:08.060
ipad whatever whatever device it is yeah so apple's going to take 30
03:00:12.700
then youtube's going to take 30 so that it leaves the creator with
03:00:16.820
uh 49 so basically the math on it is 100 times 0.7 times 0.7
03:00:23.200
that's what the creator is left with so still super appreciative of the super
03:00:27.460
chat but just just be aware when you're sending these in
03:00:29.780
if you are trying to be a patron of the show it's always a bad girl
03:00:33.420
it's terrible zoe yeah apple takes their 30 percent then youtube takes their
03:00:40.640
speaking of actually venmo cash app we get 100 of your contribution
03:00:45.220
so these platforms won't take their cut john thank you for the two dollars on
03:00:48.480
cash app appreciate that and it is a 69 tts if you guys want to get it in
03:00:54.220
uh you know what uh unless you guys wanted to do a bit more open conversation i think
03:00:58.620
we can just go into the closing statements unless you guys
03:01:00.840
want to cover anything else we can do that okay you've been here for 18 hours
03:01:04.440
yep uh so uh kyla you get to uh close first why don't you
03:01:09.640
go don't i close last because i went i have second
03:01:12.720
because he got the first word so i got the last word right or wait hold on yeah
03:01:17.020
because last time i got yeah it should probably should be because usually
03:01:20.400
starting first is the strongest and ending last is like the strongest you
03:01:23.400
balance those two things isn't it like first goes last i went
03:01:28.740
first is that how it goes but then you're getting the strongest starting
03:01:32.000
and the strongest ending which doesn't make a lot of sense right i thought it
03:01:34.760
was like recency effect and i think affirming isn't the strongest because
03:01:39.420
you're in the no when i say when i say strongest i mean like to the viewer
03:01:43.720
there's recency effect and then there's like uh um initiation effect or whatever
03:01:48.160
it's called where it's the first i don't care i thought whoever whoever goes
03:01:50.680
first i don't really care whatever you want to do for the close but uh that would
03:01:55.460
mean that he goes first for the close and then i end it sorry wait i misspoke
03:01:59.660
whoever goes first for the for the open goes second for the close am i just
03:02:07.720
whatever you want to do boss it's your show you know what we're gonna have you
03:02:13.540
you know what no kyla gets last word sure bob go ahead okay cool um yeah so the
03:02:19.700
debate uh there wasn't a clear prompt it wasn't
03:02:22.400
exactly the same as her previous debate uh essentially we're looking at what
03:02:26.380
feminism is what feminism isn't i think the key thing to take away
03:02:34.360
that when you ask someone like kyla is there a is there a standard for what
03:02:40.700
constitutes feminism and the answer is no there really isn't a a position you can
03:02:48.000
take to say this feminism thing is good for society it's just a set of
03:02:52.320
preferences that you're calling feminism that a stance that's totally
03:02:57.360
antithetical to those to those that criteria could also claim feminism so in
03:03:01.800
other words i can claim feminism true feminism the real feminism is
03:03:06.500
actually a christian ethical system uh a christian duty-based system that puts
03:03:12.320
the wife and the mother primarily at home raising the children that's good for
03:03:17.120
society and the men being the provider and the protector
03:03:19.560
and that the world itself or the the country itself is reflective of that i would
03:03:25.100
argue that that's actually reflective of the church it's church itself if you call
03:03:28.840
yourself a christian it's not only hierarchical but it's patriarchal
03:03:32.940
um i think ultimately feminism no matter how you cut it
03:03:37.620
the moment you apply it to society you're affirming the patriarchal role you're
03:03:44.480
actually saying women should have xyz and it's a request and a grievance and
03:03:49.680
you're making the grievance to a collective body of mostly men that are going to say
03:03:54.720
yes or no to it it's an allowance it's like the child in the room asking uh can
03:03:59.840
he can he finally come downstairs and play and the the leader of the house is
03:04:04.080
saying maybe uh they can go back on at any time for instance you can give women the
03:04:09.520
right to vote and you could also take it away so it's not something uh that that
03:04:14.980
can't be altered by men ultimately at any given point and so that points to a
03:04:21.000
major distinction between men and women ontologically their natures are
03:04:25.480
different they're driven towards different things and i i think a society
03:04:29.180
that acknowledges the difference between men and women is actually a society
03:04:33.100
that's better and more accurately describing reality
03:04:36.500
feminism doesn't describe reality accurately it actually argues with nature
03:04:42.740
itself it argues with descriptive reality and says can we change
03:04:46.100
descriptive reality and ultimately the answer is no um and then finally uh which
03:04:52.860
is uh the killer uh any any worldview that's uh counter to christianity is going
03:04:59.660
to have a massive problem with this particular category of attack duties and
03:05:06.000
obligations duties and obligations uh no matter how someone presents how eloquent
03:05:12.080
how complex they present their worldview when we ask a simple question do you have
03:05:17.260
any duty to xyz do we have any are there any duties or obligations at all
03:05:22.040
why should we follow this principle why should we do any of this they don't have
03:05:26.520
an answer uh they don't have an answer to this question they could make one up but
03:05:29.940
it's a set of preferences and so they're back to square one okay someone else
03:05:34.640
comes along with greater force and they're gonna they're gonna implement their set of
03:05:38.540
preferences and you really can't say shit especially as a woman and so um feminism
03:05:43.720
is a massive lie we didn't even get into the history of it um its beginnings and uh it
03:05:50.680
continues to be a lie and i think uh more and more women are waking up to the fact
03:05:55.240
that maybe they don't maybe they shouldn't uh spend their most fertile years chasing a name
03:06:01.160
tag and a lanyard uh acquiring debt uh acquiring rosters and uh and a long list of uh body counts
03:06:11.720
maybe the best thing for women maybe the best thing for women maybe the most feminist approach
03:06:18.240
you could possibly take for women is to be servants of the home servants of god servants to
03:06:25.260
their children and their husband all right thank you jim bob and then kyla give us your closing
03:06:31.200
statement please sure so um i'm not sure why but jim bob kind of did this interesting equivocation
03:06:38.500
where he uh talks about duties and obligations and compares it to things like where you're compelled
03:06:44.140
to do what you're required to do and there's consequences for not and he's muddying that with
03:06:49.920
another concept which would be like ought statements or prescriptions right and these are not the same
03:06:54.720
thing right there are certain behaviors that you're barred from doing but that doesn't mean that
03:06:58.360
there's other behaviors that you must do necessarily and so when he's talking about like
03:07:02.920
obligations from feminism he's saying that it doesn't have obligations but but it does if by
03:07:07.520
obligations you mean values and principles about how one should act right this idea as well that like
03:07:13.180
feminism doesn't have this like any level of like internal sophistication to create an internalized
03:07:18.820
definition is essentially flying in the face of how basically all of philosophy works
03:07:24.560
right this idea that feminism doesn't have a uniting front isn't really true nobody would
03:07:29.920
really agree that somebody who like wants to put women in dungeons and give them no rights is a
03:07:34.860
feminist right and even if that person said that they were a feminist it wouldn't be a live idea
03:07:39.660
because at the zeitgeist level societally we've broadly agreed that feminism has certain precepts that
03:07:45.540
we agree to but it's it's it's a non-institutional ideology ideology and so if if religion christianity
03:07:52.620
an institution that has pretty strict rigid standards by what you should and shouldn't believe
03:07:57.920
can have so many interpretations and heterogeneity and how that expresses and what
03:08:02.860
oughts they think you must do feminism is just similar in that it's an idea but it's it's even more
03:08:09.220
devoid of an institutional like structure but just because it lacks an institutional structure doesn't
03:08:14.160
make it just like this defunct idea this is obviously true right if feminism wasn't really real
03:08:19.840
then jim bob wouldn't have an issue with it if it didn't have some level of like pressing cohesion
03:08:24.160
to it then jim bob wouldn't see it as like a satanic thing of history right it's obviously something
03:08:29.520
even though the lines between what is and isn't feminism can be argued about how to define it
03:08:34.620
we don't have standards for things like kindness precisely we talk about it there's generally an
03:08:41.060
orientation towards what we think looks and feels like kindness but that doesn't mean that there's
03:08:45.440
like institutional standards by which we call this is kindness and this is not it's it's a very much
03:08:51.220
a dialogue which is what feminism is and i think that's part of what makes feminism cool right is
03:08:56.320
that's this idea that most people can self-select into and engage with and kind of make it their own
03:09:01.100
but there's obviously going to be people that are co-opting the label that don't have any orientations
03:09:06.580
that broadly would be towards feminism um just want to speak very briefly on debt probably important to
03:09:13.600
point out that probably the worst thing that has happened with like david ramsey and boomer money
03:09:19.180
is to make you think that debt is scary inherently it's not scary inherently in fact the richest people
03:09:25.120
on the planet have massive amounts of debt what's a problem with debt is unmanaged debt and having a
03:09:31.960
debt that is inflating and interest growing that is larger than your income right debt that gets away
03:09:37.040
from you but debt is one of the principles by which makes inflation uh fungible because it essentially
03:09:43.540
decreases value over time so anyone doing this like ooga booga about debt doesn't know really
03:09:49.720
what they're talking about jim bob is a really classic example of somebody who talks a lot really
03:09:54.260
confidently about things but doesn't really know what the fuck he's talking about the last time him
03:09:58.280
and i had a debate we talked about gdp and in the middle of the debate it got revealed that he doesn't
03:10:02.140
know what gdp is and he doesn't know why it even matters for a military which if you don't know
03:10:06.520
to have a military you have to have a competitive enough gdp that you can fund it so that neighboring
03:10:11.440
countries don't fucking stomp you that's why gdp matters right in the case of when we're talking
03:10:16.540
about governance and obligations he doesn't even know what the three branches our government are
03:10:20.380
and so it's like you should probably be cautious when listening to somebody when they're speaking
03:10:24.320
about governance or they're speaking about debt or they're speaking about the ways that we in which
03:10:27.940
we should organize ourselves when they don't even know like the basic precepts under which they live
03:10:32.200
right should probably know what the legislative branch is and what it does if you want to talk in any way
03:10:37.100
about like civil rights and obligations that we might have you should probably understand what the
03:10:41.080
executive branch does and the judicial branch if you want to cite the supreme court for your argument
03:10:45.540
it's probably important to do these things finally when we're talking about things like force versus
03:10:50.900
freedom these are tensions that go against each other force is something that we need you need a
03:10:56.000
military to stomp the bad guys you need to be able to like protect your sovereignty that's valuable
03:11:00.800
but we don't live for force we survive by force and we live for freedoms that's what we like
03:11:06.760
thrive and flourish with and feminism is much more preoccupied with the flourishing piece what are
03:11:12.620
pieces that we can give to women to help them flourish more and you might disagree you might not like the
03:11:18.440
idea that feeling that women need to flourish anymore and that's totally fine right but feminism doesn't
03:11:24.220
have to solve security it's not aiming to it's not a commentary on security in any ways and so when you
03:11:30.140
conflate these things arbitrarily all you're doing is making a false dichotomy because these two things have
03:11:35.540
nothing to do with one another if you want to like show up to debates you should probably know how
03:11:40.360
your government works you should probably understand how fallacies work and you should probably
03:11:44.320
understand how like economy basically works if you want to talk about any of these things in an
03:11:49.160
informed way okay thank you guys for your closing statements we do have some chats that are going

03:24:05.780
network realize the network donated 19 dollars and 99 cents radical orthodoxy is just some john
03:24:12.980
millbank bullshit it's not orthodoxy it's not protestantism it's just heresy you give christians
03:24:19.060
a bad name simp husband w jim bob w j dyer w whatever okay thank you i don't know if somebody can be a
03:24:27.060
simp if they're i have a really quick question about that do you are you firm enough in what you call
03:24:34.180
orthodox protestantism where you debate that against another theological in general i think i think talking
03:24:40.900
about religion from a theological standpoint that puts any onus spiritual leadership on you is
03:24:46.100
extremely it's something that you should do with extreme caution um and i'm not a spiritual leader
03:24:52.180
i'm not like a pastor and i'm not ordained to so i more or less usually won't because i think
03:24:58.580
yeah i just think it's dangerous it's it's a theological conclusion that i've arrived at but i
03:25:03.380
would never be so is there like a main apologist who does though that you know um there's a few there's
03:25:10.020
probably not one that i could like name off the top of my head right now but there's a few it's
03:25:13.780
started i think in like okay i think the 50s yeah i just wanted to see if there's anyone so we can
03:25:18.580
organize this destruction okay got pasty george donated 20 appreciate it jim bob andrew rachel and
03:25:28.100
sometimes brian argue calmly and coherently not so erudite gets frustrated when she thinks she can't
03:25:35.060
win an argument in fact a valid argument is not about winning thank you for that pasty george thank
03:25:42.100
you appreciate the message got hearticus thank you hearticus donated 20 dollars erudite if men have
03:25:48.820
all of the force why the heck should we even listen to what weak feminists have to say what's the ought
03:25:55.300
uh because might doesn't make right and you should care about people for more than just whether or not
03:25:59.060
they can beat you up to force you to listen to them like obviously we're not barbarians guys well let me
03:26:03.700
just push back really quick if the men listen to you the and and they applied your policy then might
03:26:11.380
would actually make right in that instance because it would require some force to give you your
03:26:16.500
advantageous policy i don't think like respecting women or like uh allowing them to like make choices
03:26:21.540
for their own is like something that you need to use so just just so we're clear might is right
03:26:26.900
when it affirms feminism no i've never said that might makes right is might correct when it defends
03:26:33.620
feminism uh sometimes there's a lot of feminist policies that's so you do so you do need might
03:26:40.500
it's not entirely i mean i need the authority of the government again we can like go down this
03:26:45.620
diatribe but again muscles no okay all right well i think uh that's it if there's any that come through
03:26:51.780
here just in these final seconds i'll be i'll try to get it otherwise we'll trigger it tomorrow uh big
03:26:56.500
