Latest / Honey Badger Radio / Women Say Killing Political Opponents Can Be Justified
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you
- 0:03Speaker 1: may be, and welcome to Honey Badger Radio.
- 0:05Speaker 2: My name is Brian.
- 0:06Speaker 1: I'm with Allison, and this is Well it's maintaining frame
- 0:09Speaker 1: and we're gonna be talking about an article from well,
- 0:14Speaker 1: it's being shared on the daily Wire, but it's about
- 0:16Speaker 1: a study that was conducted and it finds that women
- 0:21Speaker 1: are more likely to support political assassinations. Seems like a
- 0:25Speaker 1: relevant topic.
- 0:27Speaker 3: Yeah, irrelevant and also a little bit poking holes in
- 0:30Speaker 3: that whole narrative of the angel and well, I guess
- 0:34Speaker 3: they're not in the house anymore. The angel everywhere forever,
- 0:37Speaker 3: wherever they go, that hits glitter and sneezes pearls or whatever.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Cries Amber. I'm getting a little mythological at this point,
- 0:47Speaker 3: but yeah, it's it's a poking the hole in that
- 0:49Speaker 3: whole narrative of women being the more nurturing gender. Well
- 0:57Speaker 3: maybe maybe sometimes maybe not. Maybe we'll see, you know,
- 1:01Speaker 3: we'll find out.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Yeah, looking at that today.

- 2:23Speaker 3: go through yet another destruction of the narrative, like a
- 2:29Speaker 3: deconstruction of the narrative. All right, so Brian, take it away.
- 2:33Speaker 1: All right, let's look at this article. So this is
- 2:35Speaker 1: from the Daily Wire. It is entitled women are more
- 2:39Speaker 1: likely to support political assassinations. Poll shows majority of Americans
- 2:44Speaker 1: now saying killing Trump or Mom Donnie would be justified,
- 2:46Speaker 1: new poll find So that's like the subtitle within the title.
- 2:51Speaker 3: Okay, I no offense, but I feel like one of
- 2:56Speaker 3: these things is not like the other.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, a little bit, you know, I will.
- 3:02Speaker 1: I will say that. And again, like you know, this
- 3:05Speaker 1: is a study. Take it with a bit of a
- 3:06Speaker 1: grain of salt. It doesn't necessarily reflect like the general populace.
- 3:12Speaker 1: But uh, I think the study was originally had one
- 3:17Speaker 1: intention and it got an unexpected outcome, at least from
- 3:21Speaker 1: the on the part of the yes, the study, And
- 3:24Speaker 1: so they're they're posting their findings, right, Well, we'll just
- 3:29Speaker 1: read the article.
- 3:30Speaker 3: No, let me guess, let me let me put my
- 3:32Speaker 3: my guests in first. All right, So, based on feminist confabulation,
- 3:40Speaker 3: they assumed they would find that women are less likely
- 3:43Speaker 3: to support political violence, and then they find that women
- 3:47Speaker 3: are more likely to support political violence, and I'm sure
- 3:50Speaker 3: we're going to I feel like the probability is high
- 3:56Speaker 3: that we are going to be enjoying a lot of
- 3:59Speaker 3: mental gym nastics. But maybe not in this article, But
- 4:03Speaker 3: if we actually looked at the study itself, I think
- 4:05Speaker 3: that we would find a lot of very elaborate mental
- 4:11Speaker 3: gymnastics to explain how this doesn't actually negate feminist confabulation, because,
- 4:17Speaker 3: as I have found out over my twenty five years
- 4:21Speaker 3: of study of feminist science, feminism has no predictive value.
- 4:25Speaker 3: In fact, it has negative predictive value. So if you
- 4:29Speaker 3: take what feminism would predict in any particular situation and
- 4:33Speaker 3: you invert it, you are much more likely to land
- 4:37Speaker 3: on what actually you find when you investigate reality. So
- 4:41Speaker 3: these are my predictions. Now I don't know if the
- 4:44Speaker 3: article itself will deliver on them, because maybe it's just
- 4:47Speaker 3: trying to honestly talk about this, who knows. But I
- 4:52Speaker 3: imagine if we'd go to the actual study that we
- 4:55Speaker 3: would find a lot of gymnastics trying to fit this assertion,
- 4:58Speaker 3: trying to slam this assertion into the feminist framework. But yeah,
- 5:03Speaker 3: so that's all that's my prediction. Let's sake it bears out.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's see, women are more likely than
- 5:12Speaker 1: men to believe political assassination can be justified as assassination
- 5:17Speaker 1: culture rises. According to polling exclusively obtained by The Daily Wire,
- 5:22Speaker 1: women on both the left and the right were fourteen
- 5:25Speaker 1: to twenty percent more likely than men to believe the
- 5:28Speaker 1: political assassination of high profile figures could be justified. The
- 5:32Speaker 1: Network Contagion Research Institute found Can.
- 5:36Speaker 3: I just get in here?
- 5:37Speaker 2: Yeah? Go ahead?
- 5:38Speaker 1: Can I?
- 5:38Speaker 3: Could this be the reason why when women gain political dominance?
- 5:42Speaker 3: This is a repeated pattern, Guys, an empire will get
- 5:47Speaker 3: to the height of its power, women will start to
- 5:51Speaker 3: be more prevalent in the public sphere and more influence
- 5:55Speaker 3: on politics, and then a couple generations later at all craters.
- 5:59Speaker 3: Could this be one? And why could be? Could the
- 6:02Speaker 3: insistence that people be defined in black categories based on
- 6:07Speaker 3: their beliefs be a reason why an advanced say a
- 6:11Speaker 3: republic or a democracy falls when women gain significant amount
- 6:18Speaker 3: of power. Just putting it out there, just asking the question.
- 6:21Speaker 3: I'm asking the question that is implied by these statistics,
- 6:25Speaker 3: the maybe we need the group of people less likely
- 6:28Speaker 3: to think that killing the person who disagrees with you
- 6:31Speaker 3: or is currently debating with you is not a really
- 6:34Speaker 3: productive way to conduct yourself if you want an advanced
- 6:37Speaker 3: system that actually can solve problems. Hmmm, that's I don't know.
- 6:42Speaker 3: I'll throw it out to you. Maybe maybe I'm just
- 6:44Speaker 3: completely completely off the wall here. I don't know. Guys
- 6:47Speaker 3: could kill me, Yeah, all right.
- 6:53Speaker 1: The poll comes amid a spike in political violence marked
- 6:56Speaker 1: by the assassinations of Charlie Kirk and United health Care
- 7:00Speaker 1: CEO Brian Thompson, as well as the attempt on President
- 7:04Speaker 1: Donald Trump's life. What is most surprising about the findings,
- 7:07Speaker 1: according to ncri's co founder Joel Finkelstein, is that those
- 7:12Speaker 1: who justified political assassinations were not part of traditional high
- 7:16Speaker 1: risk groups, but people of all persuasions and demographics. So
- 7:20Speaker 1: high risks are basically men, is.
- 7:23Speaker 3: What they're men?
- 7:24Speaker 1: Square, Yeah, white men, or as as presumed by the
- 7:28Speaker 1: sort of like establishment, you know, our media institutions.
- 7:32Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
- 7:34Speaker 3: But but in particular they found one demographic, and the
- 7:38Speaker 3: thing is that people who study like terrorist groups know
- 7:42Speaker 3: that women are not are not like innocent bystandards. I
- 7:48Speaker 3: just got ustem monetize. Sorry, They're not innocent bystanders and
- 7:52Speaker 3: all of this. They're actually the functional core of these groups.
- 7:55Speaker 3: So they're the ones who are inspiring and directing the
- 7:58Speaker 3: violence and keeping the continent while men are going out
- 8:01Speaker 3: and killing themselves. Right, So when they say that men
- 8:06Speaker 3: are a high risk group for what, Okay, Like, have
- 8:10Speaker 3: you noticed so, for example, this is not a terrorist group,
- 8:13Speaker 3: but the polygamous moron communities. They never seem to get
- 8:17Speaker 3: rid of them, even though they keep arresting the men
- 8:19Speaker 3: in charge periodically. Why is that because it's the women,
- 8:24Speaker 3: the women who are the ones who actually have the
- 8:27Speaker 3: power of continuity and recruitment. So they just create a
- 8:32Speaker 3: new patriarch. They just pop out a new Newica patriarch.
- 8:35Speaker 3: You're not going to get rid of those communities until
- 8:37Speaker 3: you start implicating the women. So when they say high
- 8:40Speaker 3: risk group, okay, yes, men are more likely to engage
- 8:44Speaker 3: in violence. Women are more likely to support the structures
- 8:47Speaker 3: that make violence a reasonable thing to do. Right, That's
- 8:52Speaker 3: what women do. They support the structures that make violence
- 8:56Speaker 3: reasonable and something that men can invent in as a
- 9:01Speaker 3: legitimate life path. So when you say men are high risk.
- 9:05Speaker 3: I think women are higher risk, and women's extremism constructs
- 9:10Speaker 3: a situation of higher risk. It isn't necessarily the extremism
- 9:15Speaker 3: of the individual, but it's like a almost like a
- 9:19Speaker 3: a matrix that enables extremism to grow and thrive. And
- 9:26Speaker 3: if you don't get rid of the matrix, you don't
- 9:28Speaker 3: get rid of the extremism. Because the men are expendable.
- 9:31Speaker 3: These women are treating their men as expendable. You really
- 9:34Speaker 3: think that they're going to disappear when they're men, do No,
- 9:36Speaker 3: They're just going to make more men. Hell, there was
- 9:38Speaker 3: that UN camp with the female where they Isis, or
- 9:45Speaker 3: they might have been Isis where the women in this
- 9:49Speaker 3: UN camp, and they were former terror they involved in terror,
- 9:53Speaker 3: and of course the UN thinks that all women are innocent,
- 9:56Speaker 3: so they just put them in this camp and the
- 9:58Speaker 3: women would essentially drug and rape thirteen year old boys
- 10:02Speaker 3: to make more holy soldiers for their cause. And of
- 10:07Speaker 3: course the UN probably has no idea how to deal
- 10:09Speaker 3: with it. They're like, ah, well, well, we can't let
- 10:11Speaker 3: this continue. But I mean, it's not really a sexual violence,
- 10:15Speaker 3: so while we do with it, I mean, this is
- 10:17Speaker 3: just acceptable behavior by these women. But again, this is
- 10:21Speaker 3: and it's like watching a dog chew a toffee with
- 10:24Speaker 3: the un when it comes to actually recognizing the fact
- 10:28Speaker 3: that women create a matrix of violence, and they also
- 10:32Speaker 3: create the men embedded in that violence and who think
- 10:35Speaker 3: violence is their identity. And until again, until you address that,
- 10:39Speaker 3: until you recognize that actually women, because they do this,
- 10:43Speaker 3: are a higher risk than men, You're gonna just keep
- 10:46Speaker 3: having more of it. That and that's your thank you
- 10:50Speaker 3: too for coming to my misogynist tech ted talk. Let
- 10:53Speaker 3: us continue.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean again, I think people are This
- 10:58Speaker 1: is why this study is important, because they're finding these things,
- 11:02Speaker 1: and yeah, they're surprised by it, but I'm not sure
- 11:05Speaker 1: they're going to throw it out and be like, well.
- 11:06Speaker 2: That's not happening.
- 11:07Speaker 1: So because I think the conversation is moving more in
- 11:10Speaker 1: this direction. But anyway, back to this article. So the
- 11:16Speaker 1: poll comes amid a spike already read that part. What
- 11:19Speaker 1: is most surprising about the findings, according to n see
- 11:22Speaker 1: our I's co founder and final scene, is that those
- 11:24Speaker 1: who justified political assassinations were not part of traditional high
- 11:27Speaker 1: risk groups, but people of all persuasions and demographics. We
- 11:30Speaker 1: dug into the data because it felt like it was
- 11:32Speaker 1: describing a deeper moral crisis. Final scene told the Daily Wire,
- 11:36Speaker 1: we assumed young men would be driving this given unemployment,
- 11:40Speaker 1: disengagement and declining graduation rates. That's why we explicitly examined gender.
- 11:45Speaker 1: What surprised us, honestly shocked us, was that women were
- 11:49Speaker 1: more likely to show tolerance for political violence.
- 11:52Speaker 3: What you know, every single time with these people, every
- 11:55Speaker 3: single time. All we made these proposal based on our
- 11:59Speaker 3: attitudes that women are wonderful, and we were shocked by
- 12:01Speaker 3: the reality that they weren't. At what point do we
- 12:04Speaker 3: just recognize that this isn't the case. Women aren't wonderful.
- 12:08Speaker 3: We just invent that because it's so important. We feel
- 12:11Speaker 3: like it's so important to please women. And here's the
- 12:14Speaker 3: other thing. They assumed young men would be driving this. No,
- 12:20Speaker 3: it's not young men who define what their purpose is.
- 12:24Speaker 3: In fact, these are groups and groups and groups of
- 12:27Speaker 3: young men who don't feel like they have a purpose.
- 12:29Speaker 3: It's why they want They get sucked into communism and
- 12:33Speaker 3: all of these other isms because they feel like communism
- 12:36Speaker 3: is going to give them a job, which is really
- 12:38Speaker 3: ironic considering why women get sucked into it, and it's
- 12:41Speaker 3: going to give them a purpose. Of course it doesn't,
- 12:43Speaker 3: but you know, and it's that is the motivation for it.
- 12:47Speaker 3: When I talk to them, that's what they That's what
- 12:49Speaker 3: I eventually parse out of what they're saying. So men
- 12:53Speaker 3: want a purpose when they're desperate, they want a purpose.
- 12:55Speaker 3: It's women who define that purpose as violence, who create
- 12:59Speaker 3: them made tricks of violence, and then populate it with
- 13:04Speaker 3: men who don't feel like they have a purpose outside
- 13:07Speaker 3: of these ridiculous threat narratives.
- 13:10Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, well I mean that well, what it tells
- 13:14Speaker 1: me is that like even if you make men's life harder,
- 13:19Speaker 1: they don't think that like lashing out with violence is
- 13:22Speaker 1: the answer. They like, I mean, for the most part,
- 13:25Speaker 1: they just check out. They basically they go inward and
- 13:29Speaker 1: they just sort of like do their own thing on
- 13:31Speaker 1: their own, right. They they I wouldn't call it retreat,
- 13:34Speaker 1: but they they they quit. You know, they basically just
- 13:40Speaker 1: check out, is what I wanted to say. And this
- 13:43Speaker 1: is like where you're getting like this stuff. This Basically
- 13:45Speaker 1: they go migtel, right. They know they know that like
- 13:48Speaker 1: violence isn't going to solve their problem anyway, and they're
- 13:53Speaker 1: not as they understand the consequences of it women. They
- 13:57Speaker 1: I mean, like when if you go on TikTok, you'll
- 14:00Speaker 1: find women advocating violence all the time. But the reason,
- 14:04Speaker 1: one of the reasons why they feel so brazen and
- 14:06Speaker 1: doing it is because they're not the ones that are
- 14:08Speaker 1: going to actually act on it. They're going to ask
- 14:11Speaker 1: men to act on it. They're going to try and
- 14:13Speaker 1: get men to do their dirty work for them. And
- 14:15Speaker 1: they have explicitly said this many many times online. So yeah,
- 14:21Speaker 1: I mean, and it's and it's not it's like it's
- 14:23Speaker 1: it's the true. It's been true through all of history.
- 14:27Speaker 1: Like women were always saying, good men, could you like
- 14:29Speaker 1: destroy that other tribe? You know, I don't like them
- 14:32Speaker 1: for whatever reason, you know, would you kill that leader
- 14:35Speaker 1: because I feel unsafe? And that's what they do. They
- 14:39Speaker 1: appeal to the men.
- 14:40Speaker 3: But yeah, they give men the purpose. Yeah, the men
- 14:43Speaker 3: are looking for a purpose, and some of them are
- 14:46Speaker 3: damaged enough that they'll find it in violence.
- 14:49Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 14:51Speaker 3: And it's the women that are setting up the preconditions
- 14:53Speaker 3: for men to actually regard that as their purpose. You know.
- 14:57Speaker 3: I both sides trouble have trouble with content with this.
- 15:02Speaker 3: The conservatives and the left side. Both have trouble contending
- 15:07Speaker 3: with this. As far as I can tell, women are
- 15:09Speaker 3: not angels, right, And the future out of this is
- 15:14Speaker 3: to recognize that that women are not angels. They are
- 15:19Speaker 3: only as good as the standards they are held to, Okay,
- 15:23Speaker 3: and they don't deserve carte blanche like absolution. They are
- 15:30Speaker 3: not blameless, right, and they are honestly. One of the
- 15:34Speaker 3: things that really bugs me now is how much this
- 15:38Speaker 3: narrative of female blamelessness has has colonized things like all
- 15:45Speaker 3: forms of media. So not only do we not hold
- 15:50Speaker 3: women to a standard, we allow women to tell themselves
- 15:54Speaker 3: over and over and over again that they are blameless
- 15:57Speaker 3: and any standard is actually patriarch oppression. And then we
- 16:01Speaker 3: wonder why everything is going to share and we give
- 16:04Speaker 3: them more political power, and then we wonder, why is
- 16:07Speaker 3: everything going to shit because you have an entire politically
- 16:10Speaker 3: empowered class that thinks it's blameless for everything. Right Again,
- 16:17Speaker 3: would this be a problem if if we had empowered
- 16:20Speaker 3: peasant women from the seventeenth century, Probably not as much,
- 16:23Speaker 3: because they had a sensive responsibility to the continuity of
- 16:27Speaker 3: their communities and to the health and well being of
- 16:31Speaker 3: their families. But that's not the case now because for
- 16:34Speaker 3: generations we've told women that any external standard is patriarchal oppression,
- 16:39Speaker 3: and they have, they have lowered themselves to the standards
- 16:43Speaker 3: we don't hold them to. That's what's happened. And again,
- 16:47Speaker 3: like the instinct, the knee jerk instinct I even see
- 16:50Speaker 3: among conservatives, is to blame men. Oh, you're not leading
- 16:54Speaker 3: them enough, okay, But leaders have the ability to enforce
- 16:59Speaker 3: compliance on some level, either socially or through some kind
- 17:04Speaker 3: of sanctions. And if you don't give that to men,
- 17:08Speaker 3: like you don't judge women based on their behavior in
- 17:11Speaker 3: your social group, how are men supposed to lead them
- 17:14Speaker 3: with no ability to actually make them do anything? Are
- 17:19Speaker 3: they just supposed to lead them with this supposed the
- 17:21Speaker 3: same kind of patriarchal miasma that feminism says pervades everything.
- 17:26Speaker 3: But in this case, it's good because it makes women
- 17:29Speaker 3: do things that are beneficial. Like it, it's insane thinking,
- 17:34Speaker 3: and it's on both sides. And yes, I know I'm
- 17:37Speaker 3: both siding, but I think it's true. Okay, let's keep going.
- 17:41Speaker 2: All right.
- 17:44Speaker 1: To conduct the poll, ncri US cloud Research prime panels
- 17:48Speaker 1: from a nationally representative sample of American adults concerting political attitudes,
- 17:53Speaker 1: public figures, and views on the future of the United States.
- 17:57Speaker 2: Respondents were asked to rate.
- 17:58Speaker 1: On a seven point scale, well, how unjustified or justified
- 18:03Speaker 1: would someone be if they killed Zorhan Mamdani? And how
- 18:07Speaker 1: unjustified or justified would someone be if they killed Donald Trump.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Although women commit far fewer murders in the United States,
- 18:15Speaker 1: according to for roughly thirteen percent of all killings over
- 18:18Speaker 1: the past five years, the poll found that they were
- 18:20Speaker 1: more likely than men to say a political assassination could
- 18:23Speaker 1: be justified and.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Because they don't have to, right, it's not moles get
- 18:29Speaker 3: the benefit of crime without engaging in crime, at least
- 18:32Speaker 3: not directly.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Right.
- 18:35Speaker 3: So, I mean, if you don't have to engage in
- 18:38Speaker 3: the actual work of working at these things, why would
- 18:43Speaker 3: you mm hm, you know, why wouldn't you just create
- 18:48Speaker 3: the incentive structure and let that populate with men who
- 18:52Speaker 3: don't have a sense of purpose rights. That's how these
- 18:57Speaker 3: things work. Repeatedly, researchers with any kind of sense, any
- 19:03Speaker 3: kind of responsibility to reality repeatedly find this. Women populate
- 19:09Speaker 3: the sense of purpose. You know, you build it and
- 19:12Speaker 3: they will come. Women build it, and the men come.
- 19:15Speaker 3: They the men say, oh, oh, these women are saying,
- 19:18Speaker 3: this is how we derive a sense of purpose, this
- 19:20Speaker 3: is how we serve them. Okay, let's do that. That's
- 19:23Speaker 3: what happens over and over again. Terrorist groups, polygamous communities, cults.
- 19:28Speaker 3: Well maybe not every single cult. The Mason family might
- 19:32Speaker 3: be an exception, but regardless, if you're you see these
- 19:36Speaker 3: enduring structures, they're usually women constructing the sense of purpose,
- 19:42Speaker 3: and then men are orientating towards them. Okay, yeah, all right.
- 19:50Speaker 1: The poll found they were more likely to men to
- 19:52Speaker 1: say a political assassination would be justified. Specifically, fifty four
- 19:56Speaker 1: point seven percent of women compared with forty five point
- 19:59Speaker 1: two percent of men express some justification for Mamdani, while
- 20:04Speaker 1: fifty seven percent of women express some justification for Trump
- 20:08Speaker 1: compared to fifty percent of men fifty point one. We're
- 20:12Speaker 1: just still insanely high. Yeah, it is really high.
- 20:15Speaker 2: In my opinion.
- 20:16Speaker 1: But but yeah, of course, of course women are going
- 20:19Speaker 1: to be a lot higher. And again I think it's
- 20:22Speaker 1: because they don't have to deal with the consequences for
- 20:26Speaker 1: their sentiments and they can just lean into their feelings
- 20:30Speaker 1: and just say I feel like this person shouldn't be here,
- 20:33Speaker 1: and it just yeah, it just shows that they can
- 20:35Speaker 1: be absolutely heartless if they really, if they want to be,
- 20:39Speaker 1: and there's no there's no social guardrails for that, there's
- 20:44Speaker 1: no like shame for that.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Because we can't do that to women. We have to
- 20:47Speaker 2: let them have it. We have to act like they're
- 20:49Speaker 2: never a problem.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Unless you're part of this community, and which you know,
- 20:55Speaker 3: we we we all, you know, we have our misogynous
- 20:58Speaker 3: minute every five hours. You know, just just just chill
- 21:03Speaker 3: with the misogyny whatever. And of course, as I always say,
- 21:07Speaker 3: I blame women, you know what, I'm not even gonna
- 21:10Speaker 3: qualify that. I'm just gonna let people sit with it.
- 21:13Speaker 3: You can stick with that. Be like I don't like
- 21:17Speaker 3: her saying that I blame women. You can't stop me. Okay,
- 21:21Speaker 3: let's keep going, all right.
- 21:24Speaker 1: I got a super chow when I read Richard Bierre
- 21:27Speaker 1: sent a super child through. Thank you Richard, and he
- 21:28Speaker 1: says for five dollars, let us just remember Seneca Valley
- 21:31Speaker 1: High School, where three high school girls and a college
- 21:33Speaker 1: student all got together to accuse a certain tf of
- 21:37Speaker 1: a rather egregious act because one of the girls just
- 21:39Speaker 1: didn't like him, and that is the same attitude that
- 21:42Speaker 1: women will bring into positions of power if they get
- 21:44Speaker 1: into them, almost as if Mean Girls was a documentary
- 21:48Speaker 1: and women getting into political positions have the same maturity
- 21:51Speaker 1: as the plastics from Mean Girls, even though Mean Girls
- 21:54Speaker 1: didn't kill anybody. But I think that there's another one
- 21:59Speaker 1: that's a little bit better, Heathers. I think in that
- 22:01Speaker 1: one there was murder, so maybe that's a better way
- 22:04Speaker 1: to compare it. But anyway, or Jawbreaker, there's another one.
- 22:11Speaker 1: There's a lot of those. We used to have, like
- 22:13Speaker 1: media that talked about, like you know, when women go bad,
- 22:17Speaker 1: like why this is something you should be aware of.
- 22:19Speaker 1: But for some reason, we're not allowed to do this anymore.
- 22:21Speaker 1: We have to justify it. But anyway, Okay, so then
- 22:26Speaker 1: we have the chart here, let's keep Let's go on
- 22:30Speaker 1: to the next thing. Looking at the results for women
- 22:32Speaker 1: alongside broader social trends, Finkelstein offered a hypothesis for the pattern. Okay,
- 22:37Speaker 1: here's the hypothesis. I feel like they're gonna be he's
- 22:39Speaker 1: gonna be wrong. But let's find out. Over the last decade, women,
- 22:43Speaker 1: especially younger women, have become more politically polarized, more emotionally moralized,
- 22:48Speaker 1: and more immersed in online political identity formation. He said
- 22:52Speaker 1: that shift predates our study. What we're seeing now may
- 22:56Speaker 1: be the downstream effect of those longer term changes.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Emotionally moralized mean okay, uh, they.
- 23:04Speaker 1: Moralizing like they like they're they feel like self righteous.
- 23:07Speaker 2: Basically, women are more.
- 23:09Speaker 3: Just self righteous instead of like hiding this behind Ah wow,
- 23:14Speaker 3: you know academic speak. What does emotional moralizing mean in academia?
- 23:19Speaker 2: I don't know. You're gonna look it up.
- 23:21Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm looking it up. Can you hear me my
- 23:23Speaker 3: aggressive typing?
- 23:23Speaker 2: I can hear you typing.
- 23:25Speaker 1: I will play some sounds for that. That wasn't quite
- 23:32Speaker 1: the one I wanted.
- 23:34Speaker 3: I hope that was a commentary on me.
- 23:36Speaker 1: No, No, I thought I had like I thought I
- 23:40Speaker 1: had something else you need like the.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Thriller montage music as I do my typing. Okay. In
- 23:47Speaker 3: academic context, emotional moralizing usually means treating moral or political
- 23:52Speaker 3: claims as if they're justified by primarily by how strongly
- 23:55Speaker 3: one feels about them, rather than by argument. Well, I'm
- 24:02Speaker 3: just thinking like you mean, ninety nine percent of how
- 24:05Speaker 3: women think how strongly one feels about them rather than
- 24:10Speaker 3: but I get to say that because I'm I'm a
- 24:13Speaker 3: woman who tends towards wanting my arguments to be sound
- 24:18Speaker 3: on logical, systemic and rational principles. And I noticed how
- 24:23Speaker 3: often that gets me in shit with other women?
- 24:26Speaker 1: Right?
- 24:28Speaker 3: Okay, so one primarily by how strongly one feels about
- 24:32Speaker 3: them rather than by argument, evidence or cream clear principles. Now,
- 24:35Speaker 3: having said that, men do also do this as well,
- 24:39Speaker 3: but usually it's like a it's women do it like
- 24:42Speaker 3: directly like how I feel about this emotionally, men do
- 24:46Speaker 3: it as in how does this reflect on my sense
- 24:49Speaker 3: of purpose or what I think my goal is? How
- 24:52Speaker 3: does this reflect on my connection to a goal or
- 24:57Speaker 3: a sense of purpose? It's a bit all right, So
- 25:03Speaker 3: evidence are clear principles. It's less a formal theory and
- 25:06Speaker 3: more a critical label for a style of discourse core idea.
- 25:10Speaker 3: Emotional moralizing frames disagreement as a test of character. Good
- 25:14Speaker 3: people feel x, bad people don't like. Brian constantly says,
- 25:19Speaker 3: we are the good people, therefore we think the good things.
- 25:23Speaker 3: Instead of a contest of reasons, datas are competing theories.
- 25:27Speaker 3: Now here's the thing, Okay, if you have a very
- 25:30Speaker 3: large group of people who sees everything in terms of
- 25:33Speaker 3: how it makes them feel rather than reason, accountability, and logic.
- 25:42Speaker 3: How are you supposed to develop responses to novel solutions? Really? Like,
- 25:47Speaker 3: think about that. I mean the reason why, for example,
- 25:51Speaker 3: the Roman Republic was so successful because they had a
- 25:54Speaker 3: lot of debate about things that happened. And they didn't
- 25:57Speaker 3: do this, you're wrong because I disagree with your thing.
- 26:01Speaker 3: They actually had debate and that's why they could develop solutions. Right. So,
- 26:07Speaker 3: a culture that's effective enables debate over solutions other beildies.
- 26:12Speaker 3: It becomes fragile in those solutions. And if you have
- 26:15Speaker 3: a whole bunch of people that are defining things based
- 26:18Speaker 3: on how they make it makes them feel rather than
- 26:22Speaker 3: functional reality or goal setting, that's that is a recipe
- 26:28Speaker 3: for dysfunction on the level of dealing with real life issues,
- 26:33Speaker 3: like real life on non negotiables. You get what I'm saying.
- 26:37Speaker 3: It's like, this is this is this is not functional? Okay, sorry, no,
- 26:43Speaker 3: it's fine, all right, I hope, I hope I'm conveying something.
- 26:49Speaker 2: Check.
- 26:50Speaker 3: Huh No, let me, let's let's let's let's finish this up.
- 26:53Speaker 3: This is interesting. So core idea emotional moralizing frames disagreement
- 26:57Speaker 3: as a test of character. Good people feel x bad
- 27:00Speaker 3: people don't, instead of a contest of reasons data or
- 27:04Speaker 3: competing theories. Do you guys recognize anything? In this? It
- 27:08Speaker 3: treats certain emotions i e. Outrage, empathy discussed as self
- 27:12Speaker 3: authenticating evidence of moral truth, rather than as psychological states
- 27:17Speaker 3: that are themselves need to be examined and justified. You
- 27:20Speaker 3: know what's interesting is that I have seen women like
- 27:23Speaker 3: take Natty. She weaponizes this idea that you are emotion
- 27:27Speaker 3: you are expressing things because you are emotionally incorrect. That's
- 27:31Speaker 3: what she's rolled out with me. So I talk about
- 27:34Speaker 3: these things not because I've stepped through the logic carefully,
- 27:39Speaker 3: step by step, and I've come to these conclusions regardless
- 27:42Speaker 3: of how much they make me, make me uncomfortable, or
- 27:45Speaker 3: aren't flattering to me as a woman. I come to
- 27:48Speaker 3: these conclusions because they're pointed to rationally right, instead of
- 27:53Speaker 3: that I'm being motivated by improper emotions according to her,
- 28:00Speaker 3: and that means that all of my conclusions are suspect.
- 28:04Speaker 3: And then I've told her repeatedly, well, I could turn
- 28:07Speaker 3: around and say that you are improperly emotionally motivated. Therefore,
- 28:12Speaker 3: all of your conclusions are suspects. So where do we
- 28:14Speaker 3: go from there?
- 28:15Speaker 1: Right?
- 28:16Speaker 3: That this is ultimately the only way to decide that
- 28:19Speaker 3: when its emotional motivation is force, the only way to
- 28:24Speaker 3: come to a consensus in this universe where people are
- 28:29Speaker 3: suspect based not based on what their arguments, but their
- 28:33Speaker 3: emotional reasoning for making their audience arguments. How do you
- 28:37Speaker 3: resolve a disagreement? The answer is force. The only way
- 28:40Speaker 3: you can resolve a disagreement is by killing it. And
- 28:44Speaker 3: you were seeing the results of that kind of rotten thinking, right,
- 28:49Speaker 3: And because you can't, you can't actually argue the disagreement,
- 28:52Speaker 3: because that's not legitimate because the disagreement, all your arguments
- 28:57Speaker 3: all fall fold back into your emotion reasons for making them.
- 29:02Speaker 3: And I pointed that out to her, but I don't
- 29:04Speaker 3: think she understood. I don't think she understood that what
- 29:09Speaker 3: she's doing is sort of evil and will result in
- 29:13Speaker 3: terrible amounts of violence. Okay. Relation to moral emotions, academic
- 29:20Speaker 3: work distinguishes moral emotions guilt, shame, empathy, indignation from non
- 29:25Speaker 3: moral ones because they track norms about right and wrong
- 29:28Speaker 3: and influence moral judgment. Emotional moralizing is what happens when
- 29:32Speaker 3: those moral emotions dominate the justific just justifactory space. Oh God, academia.
- 29:41Speaker 3: The fact that a situation elicits strong guilt, shame, or
- 29:45Speaker 3: indignation is proof of a moral verdict instead of a
- 29:49Speaker 3: starting point for critical reflection. How it shows up in
- 29:53Speaker 3: academia Like for me, whenever something seems too easy, I'm like, yeah, no,
- 29:57Speaker 3: this can't be true. How it shows up in ACI.
- 30:00Speaker 3: In teaching and research cultures, emotional moralizing can appear as
- 30:04Speaker 3: expecting certain effective performances i e. Visible empathy, anger, as injustice,
- 30:09Speaker 3: as indicators of scholarly virtue. Who gets to decide who
- 30:18Speaker 3: we feel empathy for and what counts as justice? Who
- 30:21Speaker 3: gets whose emotional framework reigns supreme? See it all reduces
- 30:26Speaker 3: down to force. It has to be the one who
- 30:28Speaker 3: with the monopoly on force. Pathologizing or morally condemning emotional
- 30:33Speaker 3: nonconformity i e. Treating a cooler analytical stances, morally suspect
- 30:40Speaker 3: I feel like I'm being I'm being like I feel
- 30:42Speaker 3: like I'm in this somehow, rather than just methodologically different.
- 30:48Speaker 3: In argumentation, Brian, that's exactly what Natty was saying you remember.
- 30:53Speaker 2: That was what what was?
- 30:56Speaker 3: Well, because I have more a cooler, methodologically different affect.
- 31:01Speaker 3: She basically said that I'm autistic, I'm even more driven
- 31:06Speaker 3: by emotion to pursue my reason and account like a reason,
- 31:10Speaker 3: and therefore it's illegitimate. So what it means is if
- 31:16Speaker 3: if you don't pursue things in the frame of emotion
- 31:19Speaker 3: and instead pursue them in a meth like in a
- 31:24Speaker 3: cool and analytical way, they say that itself is illegitimate. Brian, Yeah,
- 31:29Speaker 3: an argument argumentation It includes substituting effect laden's speech, harm safety,
- 31:35Speaker 3: trauma for clearer causal or normative analysis HM, using emotional
- 31:42Speaker 3: impact on audiences. I think that might be a bulletpipe,
- 31:45Speaker 3: might be a little bit confused. Using emotional impact on
- 31:47Speaker 3: audiences students peers is primary warrant for policies and positions
- 31:51Speaker 3: instead of pairing it with careful empirical and conceptual work.
- 31:56Speaker 3: Oh so you substitute affect lading, language, harm safety true
- 32:00Speaker 3: for clear causal or normative analysis. So basically you just
- 32:04Speaker 3: find the people who are hurt in a need, and
- 32:07Speaker 3: then you center them and you deny the legitimacy of
- 32:11Speaker 3: any kind of merit or expectation of ethical behavior or
- 32:16Speaker 3: work or anything. What does that sound like? Distinction from
- 32:20Speaker 3: legitimate attention to emotion. Work in moral psychology and philosophy
- 32:25Speaker 3: argues that emotions are central to moral judgments and can
- 32:27Speaker 3: encode real evaluative information. Yeah, I've never found that that's
- 32:32Speaker 3: really the case. I mean, motions are great motivators, but
- 32:35Speaker 3: they're not really good at setting the direction.
- 32:38Speaker 2: Right.
- 32:41Speaker 3: The difference is legitimate moral emotional analysis. This anger guilt
- 32:44Speaker 3: might be tracking a value or in justice. Let's test
- 32:47Speaker 3: and interpret with reasons and evidence. Hey, I'll believe that
- 32:49Speaker 3: when the moral emotion analysiss actually allow the black categories
- 32:56Speaker 3: to be included in their analysis of whether or not
- 32:59Speaker 3: emotions are recognizing an injustice because they don't. Emotional moralizing
- 33:06Speaker 3: the anger guilt proves the value claim questioning it is
- 33:09Speaker 3: itself morally dubious. Okay, all right, so that's what he
- 33:16Speaker 3: means by emotional moralizing it. I think it does actually
- 33:19Speaker 3: map yees.
- 33:23Speaker 1: Ye, I mean yeah, I mean I we think it's obvious.
- 33:26Speaker 1: I don't think, but but yeah, it's still I guess
- 33:29Speaker 1: it needed to be said.
- 33:30Speaker 2: So let's see.
- 33:33Speaker 1: I'm just taking to see immercier chats or super Child's.
- 33:37Speaker 1: So let us continue with the article. Ncr I ran
- 33:44Speaker 1: a similar poll in April of twenty twenty five that
- 33:47Speaker 1: specifically tracked assassination culture.
- 33:49Speaker 3: It's a paragraph.
- 33:52Speaker 2: No, I read this whole You didn't finish.
- 33:54Speaker 3: That last line. I interrupted you.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Oh okay, No, I think you did. I did. Sorry, Yes,
- 34:03Speaker 2: and CRI ran a.
- 34:04Speaker 1: Similar poll in April of twenty twenty five that specifically
- 34:07Speaker 1: tracked assassination culture among left leaning respondents. The survey found
- 34:10Speaker 1: that fifty six percent of participants left of center said
- 34:14Speaker 1: the assassination of Trump to be justified, while fifty point
- 34:17Speaker 1: two percent said the assassination of Elon.
- 34:20Speaker 2: Musk would be justified.
- 34:22Speaker 1: The results made waves in the media and were publicly
- 34:24Speaker 1: shared by Charlie Kirk just five months before he himself
- 34:27Speaker 1: became the target of a politically motivated assassination. In the
- 34:31Speaker 1: most recent poll, assassination culture was measured by asking respondents
- 34:34Speaker 1: if they believed the political murder of two high profile figures,
- 34:37Speaker 1: Trump and Memdani could be justified.
- 34:40Speaker 3: Hey, just I want to get in here with the
- 34:42Speaker 3: Kirk thing. That is like the most stark example because
- 34:45Speaker 3: the only thing he did was talk. I mean, he
- 34:48Speaker 3: had a big audience, but he was just talking. And
- 34:50Speaker 3: I actually investigated all the claims about him. They're not true,
- 34:54Speaker 3: Like everything he said had context that they're omitting in
- 34:57Speaker 3: order to construct the worst kind of claims him. But
- 35:00Speaker 3: even so, killing a person for just their speech, sure
- 35:04Speaker 3: you want to go down that route, right, and that's
- 35:07Speaker 3: not I'm like, I think that now. I do not
- 35:10Speaker 3: think that the any assassination trump attempt on Trump is legitimate,
- 35:15Speaker 3: but you could argue he does have leavers of power.
- 35:19Speaker 3: Kirk Charlie Kirk was just talking like there's there's no
- 35:24Speaker 3: justification and I'm and I'm not saying that again that
- 35:27Speaker 3: it is at all justified to kill a democratically elected politician.
- 35:32Speaker 3: But at the very least you could say that they're
- 35:35Speaker 3: they're the stakes to their decisions are higher than somebody
- 35:39Speaker 3: that's just out there because they're talking. You get what
- 35:42Speaker 3: I'm saying, And and it's like that that's just that
- 35:47Speaker 3: is a line that you are. It's at that point
- 35:51Speaker 3: that how how can I support people who believe stuff
- 35:55Speaker 3: like that? Not just that your speech does and has consequences. Oh,
- 36:02Speaker 3: we got a sense or speech we don't like or
- 36:04Speaker 3: makes us feel uncomfortable. Let's be honest, but we need
- 36:07Speaker 3: to kill people who engage in speech we don't like.
- 36:10Speaker 3: We want to set that precedent. And the funny thing
- 36:13Speaker 3: is that I've seen these communities and how they operate.
- 36:17Speaker 3: That precedent is hideous because it's not going to just
- 36:22Speaker 3: end with your political opponents. Eventually, you're gonna be setting
- 36:25Speaker 3: that precedent with each other and you're going to be
- 36:27Speaker 3: killing each other over purity. You're basically just speed running
- 36:31Speaker 3: the French terror, right, That's what you're doing. And you
- 36:35Speaker 3: can see that in the pattern of how these mobs
- 36:39Speaker 3: in Minnesota are attacking people, well people, I mean men
- 36:43Speaker 3: squared that is, white men. That's the pattern I've been seeing.
- 36:47Speaker 3: I did see them attack an elderly couple, but I
- 36:49Speaker 3: think their primary target was probably the man elderly white couple.
- 36:55Speaker 3: Either that or they were just obstructing and yelling Nazi
- 36:58Speaker 3: slogans because they that's their spawn point or something. I
- 37:02Speaker 3: don't know, but yeah, it's like they there is a
- 37:06Speaker 3: specific demographic that they are targeting, right, and so it's
- 37:12Speaker 3: even moved into a situation where these are this particular
- 37:17Speaker 3: demographic is in a black category. They have to show
- 37:21Speaker 3: their affiliation or they're going to be killed, so that
- 37:26Speaker 3: it's moving into from public figures to targeting people just
- 37:31Speaker 3: citizens on the street because they happen to be men squared,
- 37:34Speaker 3: which is white and male, you know, And it's like,
- 37:39Speaker 3: where do you think this is going to go? This
- 37:42Speaker 3: is ultimately going to result in the right having to
- 37:46Speaker 3: use force against the left out of self defense if
- 37:51Speaker 3: you can even call these people a political position to
- 37:54Speaker 3: begin with, because it seems more that they are a tactic,
- 37:58Speaker 3: not a political position. That tactic is getting more and
- 38:01Speaker 3: more violent and more and more extreme, and less and
- 38:06Speaker 3: less reasoned about who they actually target, and it's it's
- 38:13Speaker 3: it's like I remember in twenty sixteen, I said that
- 38:18Speaker 3: this was just going to keep getting worse, this kind
- 38:21Speaker 3: of behavior that they were keep going They're going to
- 38:25Speaker 3: keep throwing people into black categories. That it's going to
- 38:27Speaker 3: get like this, this metastasized nonsense on the left. It's
- 38:31Speaker 3: going to keep throwing people into black categories. Their threat
- 38:34Speaker 3: response was going to keep getting worse, and then eventually
- 38:37Speaker 3: the only solution that the right was going to have
- 38:40Speaker 3: was going to have to be equal force. And then
- 38:42Speaker 3: you lose your republic at that point because and it's
- 38:47Speaker 3: not even it's not it's the the way it works
- 38:51Speaker 3: is you're at a debate, right, and you're debating things
- 38:56Speaker 3: and you're finding solutions, and then someone decides to bring
- 39:00Speaker 3: a club debate and start using it to end debates. Right,
- 39:07Speaker 3: you can continue to debate, right, or even the example
- 39:12Speaker 3: I used with you know, I'll continue with this. You can.
- 39:14Speaker 3: You can be the side that continues to debate, but
- 39:17Speaker 3: you're just gonna lose at this point unless you also
- 39:20Speaker 3: get a club, and then the entire that your your
- 39:24Speaker 3: level of discourse goes from solving problems to beating each
- 39:28Speaker 3: other into submission, which means that your ability to solve
- 39:32Speaker 3: problems is gone. And that's how our republic does. Yeah, okay, uh.
- 39:43Speaker 2: Okay, So let me see here.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Among left of center respondents, belief that politically motivated assassination
- 39:54Speaker 1: has justified rose to sixty seven percent, while eight point
- 39:59Speaker 1: one percent interests and forty two point five percent of
- 40:02Speaker 1: right of center respondents indicated at least some level of
- 40:05Speaker 1: justic justification.
- 40:07Speaker 2: For killing Trump. Okay.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Support for the assassination of Mamdani was also high, with
- 40:13Speaker 1: fifty four percent of right of center respondents and fifty
- 40:16Speaker 1: three point nine percent of centris expressing similar views.
- 40:18Speaker 2: This is not broken down.
- 40:19Speaker 1: Into gender, by the way, so uh NCRI said the
- 40:24Speaker 1: timing of the poll captured heightened exposure to real world violence,
- 40:27Speaker 1: which they say may help explain shifts and attitudes towards
- 40:31Speaker 1: its acceptability.
- 40:33Speaker 3: Okay, we go back down. I want to look at this. This.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Among the left of center responses, belief that politically motivated
- 40:43Speaker 3: assassination is justified rose to sixty seven percent. Oh god,
- 40:50Speaker 3: you know. This is why we find it easier to
- 40:53Speaker 3: talk to people from the right of center, Like, I mean, honestly,
- 40:56Speaker 3: what we talk about probably offends everyone equally, but at
- 41:00Speaker 3: least the right of center will be like, hmm, I
- 41:02Speaker 3: find this offensive, but let me consider it, you know,
- 41:06Speaker 3: whereas the laughs will be just like col cal kell
- 41:09Speaker 3: ll call call. It's like that's that's essentially. And and
- 41:16Speaker 3: and then I get like left leaning commentators in our
- 41:20Speaker 3: comments saying things like, uh, you don't know you you
- 41:23Speaker 3: guys are such right wingers. I'm like, that's not what
- 41:27Speaker 3: it's about. Both sides doesn't like this. I don't like
- 41:31Speaker 3: what we talk about. Both sides don't and I've gotten
- 41:34Speaker 3: into arguments with conservatives who don't like what we talk
- 41:36Speaker 3: about because it is casting women not as angels in
- 41:40Speaker 3: the house, but actual moral actors that seriously need some control, right,
- 41:46Speaker 3: some some standards to be held to, and and they
- 41:50Speaker 3: want to recast that as no, it's not women not
- 41:52Speaker 3: being held to standards, men not leading them properly and
- 41:55Speaker 3: stuff like that. Like so they don't like it either,
- 41:58Speaker 3: but they're actually more winning willing to listen to it
- 42:01Speaker 3: without immediately trying to deplatform us, silence us, censor us,
- 42:06Speaker 3: and throw us out of communities. You know, this is
- 42:09Speaker 3: this is this is the thing. It's why inevitably there
- 42:12Speaker 3: is a more right wing focus or a more right
- 42:17Speaker 3: more right wing stuff comes in because yeah, yeah, you
- 42:21Speaker 3: say you're a left wing men's rights advocate, but then
- 42:26Speaker 3: you treat anything that is disagreement as an existential threat
- 42:31Speaker 3: that needs to be neutralized. Right, stow that ship, stow
- 42:35Speaker 3: it and stop attacking men. Okay, The question is.
- 42:43Speaker 1: If no, because like it is not debatable that I
- 42:48Speaker 1: get way more success when I have guests on I
- 42:52Speaker 1: have far more success with right wing people than left
- 42:55Speaker 1: wing people. So the question is, and it's not like
- 42:58Speaker 1: I don't try. So, then the question I asked myself
- 43:02Speaker 1: is why what why is it that even if what
- 43:08Speaker 1: we say offends conservatives, why are they still willing to
- 43:12Speaker 1: talk to us? And even if what we have to
- 43:15Speaker 1: say might benefit to some degree, like you know, leftist
- 43:19Speaker 1: ideology or at least like there's something to be had
- 43:22Speaker 1: because it's a human rights issue we're discussing, why won't
- 43:25Speaker 1: they talk to us?
- 43:27Speaker 2: Well?
- 43:27Speaker 3: And when they do talk to us, why is it
- 43:30Speaker 3: such a high level of threat, like you know, and
- 43:34Speaker 3: like that we need to be silenced.
- 43:36Speaker 2: Like what they let me?
- 43:38Speaker 1: Let me put it this way, what does the right
- 43:42Speaker 1: stan to gain by talking to us? And what does
- 43:45Speaker 1: the left stand to gain by talking to us or
- 43:48Speaker 1: lose by talking to us?
- 43:52Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 43:52Speaker 2: Well, because I'm not going to answer the question, I'm
- 43:54Speaker 2: just gonna put it out there.
- 43:56Speaker 1: Because if there are people who don't want to talk
- 43:58Speaker 1: to us, and they know what we're about, and they
- 43:59Speaker 1: know what we stand for, but they still can't it
- 44:02Speaker 1: we're like the worst people ever, then there must be
- 44:05Speaker 1: something that they don't want us advocating for.
- 44:11Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, I mean I would say that the dialogue
- 44:14Speaker 3: that we're having with the left is more with the
- 44:18Speaker 3: the censorship and the deplatforming that we deal with. They
- 44:21Speaker 3: find us incredibly threatening, so they don't even talk to us.
- 44:24Speaker 3: They just influence platforms like YouTube to dlist de boost
- 44:32Speaker 3: us in the algorithm. I mean it's not just that,
- 44:35Speaker 3: I mean that is confirmed. That is confirmed. We are
- 44:38Speaker 3: subject to de boosting and shadow banning because they are
- 44:43Speaker 3: extremely threatened with what we say, and that is in
- 44:49Speaker 3: their literature. They write it out. They won't say, oh,
- 44:51Speaker 3: we're frightened by them, but they will treat us like
- 44:54Speaker 3: a very dangerous node. And of course these people do
- 45:00Speaker 3: have levers on social media platforms and they use them
- 45:04Speaker 3: so to boost us. This is something I a repeated
- 45:06Speaker 3: pattern that I've noticed is that we will find a
- 45:10Speaker 3: topic that really hits the nerve, and we will get
- 45:13Speaker 3: a gigantic spike in traffic, and then immediately after we'll
- 45:17Speaker 3: get even worse numbers. Why is that because we blipped
- 45:22Speaker 3: up on their dashboard and they said, well, let's put
- 45:26Speaker 3: another let's put another hundred kilos of counter pressure on this.
- 45:31Speaker 3: We don't want to we don't want to have this
- 45:33Speaker 3: come out. And this is specifically the individuals who espouse
- 45:38Speaker 3: left leaning talking points. Now, I honestly think that they
- 45:45Speaker 3: only espouse them because they protect their activities. So what
- 45:48Speaker 3: they're really protecting is a narrative that essentially negates any
- 45:54Speaker 3: kind of external oversight over all kinds of completely politically
- 45:58Speaker 3: neutral behavior like a violence. Political violence is pretty much neutral,
- 46:04Speaker 3: anybody can employ it, bureaucratic graft. But in particular, these
- 46:08Speaker 3: narratives defend these things because they deny all outside oversight
- 46:13Speaker 3: as patriarchal oppression. So we are threatening the shield of
- 46:18Speaker 3: a whole bunch of really bad corrupt actors. So you
- 46:23Speaker 3: better believe they're gonna pulling those labors to prevent us
- 46:25Speaker 3: from being seen. But anyway, that's the dialogue that we
- 46:30Speaker 3: are in with them. It is not a direct dialogue.
- 46:33Speaker 3: We are in a direct dialogue with conservatives, because even
- 46:36Speaker 3: if conservatives disagree with us, they'll think about it. And
- 46:41Speaker 3: this is why, because they aren't immediately in a moralizing frame. Okay,
- 46:49Speaker 3: and again we have to contend with this. I'm not
- 46:54Speaker 3: saying there aren't like left wing male activists, the mail
- 46:58Speaker 3: rights activists. I've seen them on Reddit and they do
- 47:00Speaker 3: great analysis. For example, they've done great analysis of the
- 47:03Speaker 3: latest CDC chicanery. With the National Intimate Partner and Sexual
- 47:08Speaker 3: Violent Survey. Right, good analysis, but they have to realize
- 47:15Speaker 3: that everything that they consider politically important, the very side, well,
- 47:20Speaker 3: the very quote unquote side that they're on, considers to
- 47:24Speaker 3: be being a trader.
- 47:27Speaker 2: Right.
- 47:27Speaker 3: So the left looks at the left wing, the left
- 47:30Speaker 3: wing male advocates and says to itself, these people are traders.
- 47:34Speaker 3: These men are traders, right, somehow, the Bernie Bros Are traders.
- 47:39Speaker 3: Every time a group of men come together and have
- 47:42Speaker 3: an independent thought, they are labeled traders. So you have
- 47:45Speaker 3: to ask yourself, like, yeah, you know, this feels like
- 47:50Speaker 3: it's moving right, But it's because the left has decided
- 47:53Speaker 3: that men should go, should disappear, are illegitimate, and masculinity
- 47:59Speaker 3: is a talx and that needs to be eradicated. And
- 48:03Speaker 3: I can't like, it's like, I can't avoid that conclusion
- 48:06Speaker 3: from their behavior. So if you're left, if you're on
- 48:10Speaker 3: the left, I guess clean house. I don't know, Yeah, okay,
- 48:16Speaker 3: let's keep going.
- 48:18Speaker 2: All right.
- 48:20Speaker 1: So NCRI said the timing of the poll captured heightened
- 48:23Speaker 1: exposure to real world violence may which they say may
- 48:26Speaker 1: help explain shifts and attitudes towards is acceptability. While respondings
- 48:32Speaker 1: different in political ideology, the poll found a common thread
- 48:34Speaker 1: among those who justified political assassination a strong belief that
- 48:38Speaker 1: America is in decline. So the main common thread is
- 48:43Speaker 1: nihilism about the future.
- 48:47Speaker 3: Among yes, I think there are there are some things
- 48:51Speaker 3: to be deeply concerned about, but nihilism. Honestly, I think
- 48:57Speaker 3: the most important thing that we need to deal with
- 48:59Speaker 3: in terms of nihilism is the relationship between men and women,
- 49:02Speaker 3: and whatever state manages to figure out and scale up
- 49:09Speaker 3: a solution to that is going to be leading the
- 49:11Speaker 3: future full stop. Because every single great power is dealing
- 49:16Speaker 3: with the same problem, which is a huge decline in
- 49:20Speaker 3: stable family formation and the production of children. There there's
- 49:25Speaker 3: not going to be any great powers in the future
- 49:27Speaker 3: if we don't solve that problem. And the one great
- 49:30Speaker 3: power that manages to solve that problem is going to
- 49:33Speaker 3: be the leader of the future. This is this is
- 49:37Speaker 3: this is my prediction. The one great power that manages
- 49:41Speaker 3: to get men and women forming relationships, having children and
- 49:47Speaker 3: productive again is going to seize the future. Every other
- 49:54Speaker 3: great power is going to have to orientate to that
- 49:56Speaker 3: because they're all facing the same problem, and that that
- 50:00Speaker 3: problem is the existential threat. We're engaging in all this
- 50:05Speaker 3: political jockeying, I think because we don't want to face that. Okay,
- 50:12Speaker 3: so there it is. There it is. I'm outlining hope
- 50:14Speaker 3: for the future. It is in solving this issue. And
- 50:18Speaker 3: it's not like this is uniquely American. It's everywhere. It's
- 50:23Speaker 3: not even uniquely Western. China is having the same problem.
- 50:26Speaker 3: Africa is declining, South Threa is dead in the water rights,
- 50:33Speaker 3: it's everywhere. I think, even South Latin America. I mean, hell,
- 50:38Speaker 3: they've managed to have collapsing birth rates without ever becoming prosperous. Right,
- 50:44Speaker 3: So this problem is worldwide. It's an existential problem for
- 50:48Speaker 3: the species, and everybody is aware of it on some level.
- 50:52Speaker 3: So if you want to be part of the future,
- 50:54Speaker 3: you've got to fix it. And the nation that does
- 50:57Speaker 3: it is going to be the leader for everyone else. Sir.
- 51:02Speaker 3: There you go. That is hope. It's it's hope, but
- 51:06Speaker 3: it's qualified hope. There is a problem. Yeah, it needs
- 51:10Speaker 3: to be fixed.
- 51:11Speaker 2: I don't think the.
- 51:12Speaker 1: People in our audience are necessarily thinking that, you know,
- 51:17Speaker 1: we have to like commit assassinations because America's in decline.
- 51:21Speaker 2: There is so much accelerationism too.
- 51:23Speaker 1: This is like another part of this is they want
- 51:24Speaker 1: things to get worse because they think it's going to
- 51:27Speaker 1: like wake people up.
- 51:28Speaker 2: That's not how things work.
- 51:29Speaker 1: But anyway, Among respondents who said assassinating Trump could be justified,
- 51:33Speaker 1: seventy point three percent also believe that country is in decline.
- 51:37Speaker 2: Well. Fifty nine point eight percent of those who.
- 51:39Speaker 1: Justified the assassination of Mamdani reported the same social media
- 51:43Speaker 1: use was linked to support for political assassination. Left of
- 51:46Speaker 1: center respondents who used social media the most scored fifty
- 51:50Speaker 1: percent higher on a measure of justification for murdering Trump
- 51:53Speaker 1: than those who use it the least. Who's on social
- 51:56Speaker 1: media mostly men or women? Are there more men on
- 52:00Speaker 1: social media or women on TikTok x? You know, Facebook?
- 52:06Speaker 1: Whatever the kids are using Telegram, I don't know WhatsApp,
- 52:10Speaker 1: I don't know wherever they are.
- 52:14Speaker 2: Anyway, So.
- 52:17Speaker 1: On the right, the most active social media users scored
- 52:19Speaker 1: fifty nine percent higher on justification for murdering Mamdani compared
- 52:22Speaker 1: to the least active users. Experts suggest that online platforms
- 52:26Speaker 1: may amplify extreme rhetoric and normalize aggressive behavior.
- 52:30Speaker 3: Yeah it's possible, but.
- 52:33Speaker 1: Yeah, Among the weak minded. But then you can use
- 52:35Speaker 1: that you can also make the argument that social media
- 52:39Speaker 1: can amplify all kinds of things. I mean, there are people,
- 52:44Speaker 1: you know, BX has like done the work on this.
- 52:47Speaker 1: There are places like discord and forums and such where
- 52:52Speaker 1: there are bad actors who radicalize children by talking to them.
- 52:57Speaker 1: And of course the answer to that is for parents
- 52:59Speaker 1: to like honitor what their kids do online. But like, yeah,
- 53:03Speaker 1: I mean I think all those things are true. But
- 53:05Speaker 1: I think also though, going back to what you said
- 53:07Speaker 1: about the relationship between men and women, if you strengthen
- 53:11Speaker 1: that bond, people are not going to be looking online
- 53:14Speaker 1: for like communities or places of belonging because.
- 53:17Speaker 2: They have that exactly. It's kind of like a secondary thing.
- 53:21Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to become a secondary thing. When people
- 53:24Speaker 3: identify as men and women in a positive relationship with
- 53:27Speaker 3: each other, they don't turn into these mobs seeking a
- 53:33Speaker 3: holy war against patriarchy. Right, They're more reasoned and accountable
- 53:38Speaker 3: on both sides. Right, the rhetoric on the left side
- 53:46Speaker 3: becomes more about presenting a position of open mindedness and
- 53:53Speaker 3: self doubt and recognition of novel situations, and the rhetoric
- 54:00Speaker 3: on the right becomes much more about you know, family,
- 54:05Speaker 3: institution and duty and loyalty, if that makes sense. But
- 54:10Speaker 3: both sides then are in dialogue with each other in
- 54:14Speaker 3: order to solve problems without losing a sense of self. Okay,
- 54:19Speaker 3: but that's when people don't identify with politics as their
- 54:23Speaker 3: primary identity. They identify with their family and the production
- 54:28Speaker 3: of like healthy relationships and healthy children as their primary
- 54:33Speaker 3: purpose in life. Makes very different people, right, and very
- 54:37Speaker 3: different politics. And again, this is the thing that every
- 54:41Speaker 3: single great power is facing right now. This is the problem.
- 54:46Speaker 3: Men and women are not getting together, and they are
- 54:49Speaker 3: not forming stable families, and they are not producing children.
- 54:52Speaker 3: This is across the board. Every great power and even
- 54:55Speaker 3: every medium power and every small power is dealing with this.
- 54:59Speaker 3: And this is and again, if you solve this problem,
- 55:03Speaker 3: you are going to get a healthier state. You are
- 55:06Speaker 3: going to get a state that regards its politics as
- 55:09Speaker 3: serving its purpose rather than the purpose. Right, and you
- 55:15Speaker 3: are going to be the state that ushers in the future.
- 55:20Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, all right, experts already read this part. Okay,
- 55:30Speaker 1: to today's social media platforms reward outrage, absolutism, and symbolic
- 55:35Speaker 1: aggression while flattening moral complexity, Colin Wright, and evolutionary biologists
- 55:40Speaker 1: and contributor to NCRI told The Daily Wire. In these spaces,
- 55:44Speaker 1: punishment is not just normalized, but asceticized. Violence is reframed
- 55:49Speaker 1: as meaningful, expressive, or even admirable, which lowers the psychological
- 55:53Speaker 1: barriers that usually keep it in check. Can I just
- 55:58Speaker 1: say that it's in I think that the article seems
- 56:00Speaker 1: to be pivoting away from the woman question here, And
- 56:04Speaker 1: they're not to say it's social media guys, they're just
- 56:09Speaker 1: victims of social media.
- 56:10Speaker 2: I'm on social media.
- 56:11Speaker 1: I haven't killed anyone or wanted to, at least not literally.
- 56:18Speaker 3: Sometimes sometimes the dead of night you sort of feel like,
- 56:21Speaker 3: good god.
- 56:22Speaker 1: Am, and I'm like, oh my dog moved, Yeah that's.
- 56:26Speaker 3: Jojo Yeah sorry sorry voidcat just decided that Wait I
- 56:33Speaker 3: see her. Wait wait she might have have been summoned
- 56:38Speaker 3: by me saying something. But yeah, that's uh yeah, I mean,
- 56:41Speaker 3: but that's just normal human stuff. We're not. You have irritation.
- 56:47Speaker 1: I think that I hate I kind of hate blaming
- 56:50Speaker 1: social media.
- 56:52Speaker 3: Yes, it.
- 56:54Speaker 1: Opens It opens a Pandora's box of problems, because you're
- 56:58Speaker 1: gonna get people using this to justify you know, basically
- 57:03Speaker 1: like further limiting the Internet more than it already has been.
- 57:08Speaker 1: It's not like the wild West like it used to be.
- 57:11Speaker 1: But and also it's passing the buck, like you're not
- 57:14Speaker 1: like there are human beings and they have free will
- 57:18Speaker 1: and they can make decisions, and you know, like we
- 57:21Speaker 1: should be talking about them as people. Sure that we
- 57:25Speaker 1: should offer we could offer like some kind of you know,
- 57:29Speaker 1: help to people who are terminally online. Those people exist,
- 57:33Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't think that social media is
- 57:36Speaker 1: the problem, and I kind of hate that.
- 57:38Speaker 3: So but yeah, no, it's lazy thinking. It's really lazy thinking. Yeah,
- 57:44Speaker 3: I see it a lot of different places that you know,
- 57:46Speaker 3: just becomes this catch all way of excusing any kind
- 57:49Speaker 3: of responsibility. So someone said that that the other thing
- 57:54Speaker 3: is that we should stop. We need to what did
- 57:58Speaker 3: they say, we need.
- 58:00Speaker 2: To social chat or regular chat?
- 58:02Speaker 3: No, it was regular chat. We need Daniel four Gas said,
- 58:08Speaker 3: we will have to fix the issue of throwing children
- 58:11Speaker 3: as strangers who could care less and calling it education too. Yes,
- 58:15Speaker 3: but the thing is that most of the solutions I
- 58:19Speaker 3: see to the family problem require making large coercive changes
- 58:25Speaker 3: to people. But I think what's going to happen happen
- 58:31Speaker 3: is we're going to have to take the current political
- 58:33Speaker 3: situation and the current sort of beliefs and make it
- 58:39Speaker 3: so that within that people are able to pair up again.
- 58:42Speaker 3: So it has to be a form of a relationship
- 58:47Speaker 3: between the set between the sexes, a set of identities
- 58:51Speaker 3: for men and women that are impervious to social media
- 58:55Speaker 3: and all of this other invitation to political violence, et cetera.
- 59:00Speaker 3: And I think that's possible. Right, And again, the country
- 59:05Speaker 3: that wins that race wins the marriage race. That's the
- 59:10Speaker 3: country that ushers in the future.
- 59:13Speaker 2: All right, yeah, keep going, all right, It was like
- 59:16Speaker 2: this is almost over. So yeah. The differences were also.
- 59:19Speaker 1: Notable among respondents who justified political assassination. On the left,
- 59:24Speaker 1: support was highest among younger adults, with eighty two percent
- 59:28Speaker 1: of eighteen to twenty nine year olds indicating some level
- 59:30Speaker 1: of justification. On the right, the highest support appeared among
- 59:34Speaker 1: those aged thirty to forty four, with seventy three percent
- 59:37Speaker 1: expressing justification.
- 59:38Speaker 2: Huh so, so.
- 59:40Speaker 1: Zoomers on the left and millennials on the right, or
- 59:47Speaker 1: you know, like that ballpark.
- 59:49Speaker 2: I know some people don't like the generation.
- 59:51Speaker 3: We go back to that. Yeah, they have moved away
- 59:53Speaker 3: from although interestingly enough, they headlined the issue with women
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: no goibe the final paragraph. I want to take a
- 1:00:02Speaker 3: look at that a little more closely before we continue.
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: Here we go age differences. We're also notable among respondents
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: who justified political assassination. On the left, support was highest
- 1:00:13Speaker 3: among younger adults eighteen to ninety Okay. On the right,
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: the highest support appeared among those aged thirty to forty four.
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: All right, So what that is is people are taking
- 1:00:27Speaker 3: politics as their identities, and it's probably showing up most
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: among young people because they're the ones who have been
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: so most propagandized against being men and women. That that's
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: what the feminist narrative does. It just basically makes it
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: very uncomfortable to identify with being a man or a woman.
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: You can sort of be one as like a category
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: in a checkbox, but it's not like, if you identify
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: as a man, you identify with oppression of women. If
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: you identify as a woman, you identify with being oppressed. Right,
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: And you can see that pressure on people so they
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: step away from these identities, which are if you think
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: about it, they transcend politics, they transcend nations, they transcend
- 1:01:12Speaker 3: cultural systems. They transcend religion. Our identities as men and
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: women are granted to us by things that are far
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: bigger than any political identity could ever be, far more liminal,
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: you know, whether you want to call that God or evolution.
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: These are forces that act upon us that you know,
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: we as individuals, we're just blink, We're blink of the eye, right.
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: These are huge forces that are far bigger than everything,
- 1:01:41Speaker 3: everything that we construct. So these identities are so fundamental,
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: they are fundamental beyond belief, and this political structure wants
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: to have control over that and wants instead for people
- 1:01:54Speaker 3: to identify with politics. And the younger generations are generations
- 1:01:59Speaker 3: in which that whole schema has been working like there's more,
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: there's more momentum behind it on them, so they identify
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: more with politics and the the and the The additional
- 1:02:14Speaker 3: factor here is when you identify more, when it becomes
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: when your politics becomes so entrenched in your identity, then
- 1:02:23Speaker 3: any disagreement becomes an existential threat, which means you feel
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: more at home with using violence against your opponents. And
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: again that comes a way that comes out of people
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: stripping out their identities as men and women because they
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: don't feel good anymore, because identifying with being a man
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: as a pressing women, and identifying with being a woman
- 1:02:46Speaker 3: is being oppressed by men's they don't feel good. They
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: strip out those identities and then they replace them with politics.
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: You know.
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: That's this is this is a symptom of it. All right, Okay, Brian,
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: you want to you wanna say anything to that. Do
- 1:03:02Speaker 3: you think I'm full of shit? This possible?
- 1:03:05Speaker 2: No?
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: I think that I think it's true, especially because they
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: are younger, and I think that maybe they're a bit embedded,
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: a bit like embedded in this this uh you know,
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: this political stuff because it's been like dominating like our
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: lives because there hasn't been anything else really, yeah, and
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: I mean all of it's kind of like from the
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: same problem. And again, if if you're not, like, if
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: you're not working on your personal life, you are going
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: to look for like bigger, lower resolution things to address anyway,
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: because you need to put your energy into something so well.
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: For example, if you're a young man and you don't
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: have any prospects and you don't have any romantic like options,
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: you're just sort of like excluded your demon eyes, your
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: shit on. But in your personal life, you might not
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: have much to do, so you end up looking at
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: like bigger things that you'd like to do or you
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: want change, right, And yeah, it's it's partly because of.
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: The identity thing that you said.
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: But I think like, for example, people like I know
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: a lot of young people that I go to church
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: with and they are married, they have jobs, they have
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: their own businesses, or they live on a farm, they
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: have they have stuff going on in their life. They
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: don't know what's happening on the internet because they're too busy,
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: and they're happy. They have a purpose, like they're doing something,
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: but it's but it's a real purpose.
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: It's not just something filling the void. Right.
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: They're raising children or they're managing their relationships or whatever.
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: So because of that, they're not looking at what's you know,
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: this these sorts of like I don't want to call
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: them distractions, but they're like less important really, you know, the.
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: Politics are subordinate. So for example, if your goal is
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: to produce a family, to run a farm, to be married,
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: you look at politics in terms of does do these
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: politics serve my goal? And that's that's a very pragmatic
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: way of looking at politics. Whereas with these with people
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: who don't have that as a base. They look at
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: politics as in, how do I identify how does this
- 1:05:18Speaker 3: you know? How does this express my identity? You know?
- 1:05:21Speaker 3: And how do I identify with these? Or I identify
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: with these politics because they give me meaning? And then
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: in one case, the politics gives the person meaning. In
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: the other case, the politics serves the person's actual source
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: of meaning, which is family, community, farm, business, and relationship.
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: You see the difference. Yeah, and that's why this, that's
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: why political violence makes sense to these people. Okay, can
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: we go down to the comments and just go through them.
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: I don't know if I can look at comments because
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: it's an archive link.
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: You try, Maybe I can try.
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: Oh no, it says, yeah, I can't look at the conversation.
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: Huh, yeah I could. I looked at the comments, but uh,
- 1:06:09Speaker 3: I guess you can't. Yeah I did. I was like
- 1:06:11Speaker 3: looking at them. I was like, hmm, this is this
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: is slightly interesting.
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: Uh yeah, if I can't see them, can you tell
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: me what they say?
- 1:06:22Speaker 3: Sure? I I could. Uh, Okay, let's see what's going
- 1:06:26Speaker 3: on here?
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: Just read some.
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: Yeah, let me see if I can I can access
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: them again. Maybe maybe I just hallucinated them. Uh no,
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: it seems like they're they've disappeared. Now did I hallucinate this?
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: Maybe that if they are on a separate link, I
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: can maybe try archiving and if you send me that
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: link and then it'll it might open the archive.
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: I'm not really sure though.
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just wondering because I'm pretty sure. Okay, there
- 1:06:57Speaker 3: was a couple of things that I did. If I
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: can track down the actual moments. I exported this as
- 1:07:01Speaker 3: a PDF to put it into perplexity as like not
- 1:07:05Speaker 3: necessarily like just to like give some some subsidiary text suggestions. Maybe. Well,
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: you know what, from what I remember, they were pretty sane.
- 1:07:20Speaker 3: They're they were like, they're not as based as what
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: we say, but they weren't like freaking out, which is
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: which is something that a lot of people do when
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: you criticize men or sorry, criticize men. What am I
- 1:07:37Speaker 3: talking about when you criticize women?
- 1:07:40Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 1:07:45Speaker 3: Yeah, so okay, well all right.
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: Well let's see what some of the comments say.
- 1:07:54Speaker 3: Sure, I mean in our in our chat, Yeah yeah, yeah,
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: that I go to the first and see ma Bounor
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: says most men are Mangina's.
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: Well, I don't think that that that that's that was
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: in response to men supporting assassination.
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: I think they're sane.
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: I don't know if that's like what you're getting at,
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: but I think not wanting to murder your political opponents
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: is actually like a normal position. It's not like a
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: side position. It's like a being, a health a mentally
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: healthy human being.
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: Is that? Uh?
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: Selita girl says Yoko, sorry for your loss. I assume
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: that's for you. Yeah, they're long gone, I think. But
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: William Branch says, sorry, we need to devote women. Well,
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: good luck with that. You're gonna have to get women.
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: To do it.
- 1:08:46Speaker 3: Solved it on a fundamental level.
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll have to solve like that's yeah, And if
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: you get it to the point where women are willing
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: to do it, you might not need them to do
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: it anymore.
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: Because they have become sane. Again if they.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: Ever were, Quantum Cat says or well proven correct again.
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: M m yeah. Because the biggest supporters of the party
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: were young women. Yeah, yeah, specifically young women. I did
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: want to say. I mean, it's pretty obvious from this
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: that you know, when you think emotionally, it's not necessarily
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: a good thing, because it means that instead of debating
- 1:09:26Speaker 3: with people, you regard them of disagreeing with you as
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: a fundamental violation of your person. So yeah, like the
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: fact that women are more emotional does not make them
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: better people. I think that's the ultimate conclusion of this article.
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: All right, continue, Brian.
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: Uh No, it's fine.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: And Dirko one fifteen says Adolph Trump, Ice and Maga
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: are terrorists and traders. Just your typical comment and nothing
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: to see here?
- 1:09:58Speaker 3: Why no, but why they don't.
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: Want to answer the question. They're not going to answer
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: the question else and they're just.
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: Gonna I have at this point, I have a lot
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: of concrete criticisms of policies that Trump has been pursuing.
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: But Trader, I don't think so. And what else is it? Mega?
- 1:10:20Speaker 3: You mean people who just want to have a country
- 1:10:24Speaker 3: that works, regardless of whether or not Trump is delivering
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: that to them. They voted for him because they wanted
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: to have a country that works and no more forever wars.
- 1:10:36Speaker 3: Can you at least respect them on that level? And
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: ICE's traders were Ice traders when they were being expanded
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: under Obama. Like they're just the same people who are
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: working under Obama to control all immigration. What the hell changed.
- 1:10:52Speaker 3: All right, let's go.
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: Okay, and then I got one more.
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: From uh let me see g Glenn six five seventy four.
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: You guys got to realize that most extreme left are brainwashed.
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: You need indifference instead of aggressive reaction.
- 1:11:09Speaker 3: What are you even talking about now? I'm getting an
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: aggressive reaction. Who was aggressive?
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: Yeah? I don't think we're being aggressive.
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: Yeah. Sometimes I get really angry because I see absolute
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: injustice that men face. Forgive me. Actually, you know what,
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: I don't give a crap about your forgiveness. I'm going
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: to continue to get angry when I see injustices that
- 1:11:33Speaker 3: men face. And if that anger is directed at the left,
- 1:11:36Speaker 3: so be it. You know what the left can do,
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: It can get the fuck out of my way and
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: stop fricking targeting men. Okay, all right? I mean actually, no,
- 1:11:48Speaker 3: I have one left thing to say. Literally, I am
- 1:11:51Speaker 3: seeing feminists on who are basically ground zero for the
- 1:11:56Speaker 3: modern left, arguing that anyone who recognizes male victims of
- 1:12:03Speaker 3: loss of custody, false accusations, rape, domestic violence, and male
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: victims at all of legal policies like conscription of homelessness
- 1:12:16Speaker 3: of suicide. Anyone who recognizes male victims is anti feminist.
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: That is them declaring their black category.
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: That is, if they didn't want me to be anti feminist,
- 1:12:30Speaker 3: they shouldn't have decided to make men their escapegoat group.
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: And until they undecide that, they are going to get,
- 1:12:39Speaker 3: you know, a full blast of my anger. And no,
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: I'm not gonna be like, oh yeah, that's okay, it's
- 1:12:46Speaker 3: not okay. Yeah, and yeah they're blamewashed. But you really
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: think that just continuing to be like, oh no, it's
- 1:12:54Speaker 3: all neutral, it's all fine, is the way to go.
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: Like people, men are being hurt by these policies that
- 1:13:01Speaker 3: are being pursued by people who simply want to make
- 1:13:04Speaker 3: male victims invisible so they can continue to condemn men,
- 1:13:08Speaker 3: and by extension, condemn men the things that men do,
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: like hold people to standards. All right, okay, I'm done.
- 1:13:17Speaker 3: That really pisses me off.
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: Yeah it's okay, okay, okay.
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: So in the regular chat, it's it's a lot more lively.
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: Here the chat is where the party is. Let me,
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: I'm gonna try just look at a couple of the
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: like the later ones, because they've been talking a while.
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: Loquacious primate. Maybe the real threat is a world men
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: and women are more loyal to each other over those
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: that want to control us. Yes, yeah, exactly, Yeah, yes,
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: that's what it is. If a man and a woman
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: are together and they have a family, and they have
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: a community and they forward each other. Yes, the government
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: has less power and if they're they're less needed, they're
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: frankly less needed. So yes, the government, you're absolutely.
- 1:14:09Speaker 3: Right, would have to derive its GDP from other things
- 1:14:13Speaker 3: aside from exploiting it's it's it's uh, it's population. It
- 1:14:18Speaker 3: would have to derive it from actual intelligent, sane fiscal
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: policy and and over and properly managing its budget because
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: you know, we we can do that. But it's gonna
- 1:14:31Speaker 3: you know, there's gonna be a loss of income for
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: a lot of people if if men and women start
- 1:14:36Speaker 3: having a healthy relationship. Again, big loss of income. Okay,
- 1:14:41Speaker 3: all right, all right, so yeah I'll just do that. Yeah,
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: So send those messages, feed the badger dot com slashes
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: the tip. You can send them after the show is
- 1:14:50Speaker 3: over if you are really annoyed at anything I've said.
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: I don't want to necessarily be constantly blasting, like putting
- 1:15:00Speaker 3: left people on blast. If they want that to stop,
- 1:15:03Speaker 3: they can stop attacking men, then they can stop attacking masculinity.
- 1:15:07Speaker 3: There you go, that's all you need to do. Then
- 1:15:09Speaker 3: we can have a nice discussion, a nice, calm discussion
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: about whatever remains of your ideology after you stop attacking
- 1:15:17Speaker 3: men in masculinity. I suspect for a lot of the
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: modern left there isn't much left. But anyway, those are
- 1:15:24Speaker 3: my conditions. And if you want to comment on that,
- 1:15:26Speaker 3: if you are a left leaning person who's really upset
- 1:15:28Speaker 3: with me because some of you have left as patrons,
- 1:15:33Speaker 3: because apparently the final straw was me defending the ice
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: agent who was nearly run over and shot the protester
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: who nearly ran over him or no, he was run
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: over or he was hit by the car. You know,
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: that was the final straw. What did you expect? Right?
- 1:15:52Speaker 3: This is an intersection of a man trying to do
- 1:15:54Speaker 3: a job that is implicated as immoral because the things
- 1:15:59Speaker 3: that men do generally are implicated as immoral, and uh,
- 1:16:03Speaker 3: a female protester who apparently thought she was invulnerable and
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: could put other people in danger, other people's lives in danger. Right,
- 1:16:11Speaker 3: what did you expect? My opinion would be? Okay? So anyway,
- 1:16:15Speaker 3: if you want to comment on that, Feed the Badger
- 1:16:17Speaker 3: dot com slash just the tip. How about you put
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: in your comment instead of raging off because you find
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: what I have to say to be what was the
- 1:16:27Speaker 3: phrase that was used?
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: What was the phrase aggressive?
- 1:16:34Speaker 3: No? Uh, emotional.
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: Moralizing?
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's offensive to your emotional moralizing. Okay, anyway,
- 1:16:46Speaker 3: feed the Badger dot com slash just the tip, send them.
- 1:16:49Speaker 3: You know, I also don't mind it if you think
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: that this is good content. You just want to say, Hi,
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: I like your stuff. Feed the Badger dot com slash
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: just the tip. We don't always have to just you know,
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: get into arguments, although that happens a lot with me,
- 1:17:00Speaker 3: I'll admit it. And then if you want to support
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: the show because you want commentary that doesn't necessarily support
- 1:17:08Speaker 3: anybody's narrative, feed the Badger dot com slash support to
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: do that, accept the narrative that men should be cared
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: about and deserve compassion, and that maybe you know, society
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: shouldn't throw just considered disposable, the very thing that enables
- 1:17:24Speaker 3: us to continue to have a society. All right, So
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: I'll hand that back to Brian to make commentary on
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: anything I've said and take us out.
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: Uh No, I think we went through it.
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: It's a I wish that they had gone a little
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: bit more in this article into like at least trying
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: to understand like what it is about women that like
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: they tend to promote this more. And I'm disappointed in
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: this researcher. And I'm like, how how is it you
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: you probably own like more than one house and every like,
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: how are you like living this well? And you haven't
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: even said you know, may be at the very least
- 1:18:01Speaker 1: you can get into like evolutionary psychology or whatever on it,
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: but like, at the very least you have to understand
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: that if you live in a bubble as a woman,
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: where you are like living in the most prosperous, the
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: most abundant, the safest, and the most well protected part
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: of the world in human history, which is the United States, right,
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: you are the freest, the safest, the least likely to starve,
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: the least likely to be go homeless, the least likely
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: to have your kids die. Like you are doing so well,
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: and yet you are miserable and angry and afraid and
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: so like you and you feel like because you live
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: in this bubble as a woman that you can just say, well,
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: act like a child and basically say, I want to
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: be able to kill my babies whenever I want. I
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: want free healthcare, I want free you know, boob jobs.
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: I want free hair appointments. I want my nails done.
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: I want groceries. I want houses, which is what they do.
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: I want my kids if I decide to not kill them,
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: I want them taken care of by somebody else. I
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: want all of this I want, I want. I want
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: more than that I deserve. I deserve I deserve. And
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: when somebody says, well, we're gonna we're gonna elect this
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: guy because he's gonna save the economy, close the borders,
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: whatever it is, do reasonable things that don't benefit this
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: woman directly, the woman's reaction is he has to die
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: and that that's literally what we have seen and are
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: still seeing is women on TikTok and on x and
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: on other social media platforms saying who's gonna do it,
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: who's gonna step up, who's gonna take one for the team.
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: Of course they say that because they're not gonna do it.
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: They're just expecting a man to step up and say
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: I will do it. Tips Fedora and go take care
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: of it, even if it means, you know, he ends
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: up in jail forever or dies trying or whatever, and
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: they haven't even thought to ask the most pampered, the
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: most well taken care of, the most spoiled people could
- 1:20:06Speaker 1: ask for be or just sort of like normalize the
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: idea of using violence to get what they want.
- 1:20:12Speaker 2: I mean, it makes sense to me.
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: So I don't know why they're not going there at least,
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: like I hope that they revisit this at some point
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: and they do actually start to think about that. So anyway, Yeah,

- 1:21:29Speaker 1: be sure to say goodbye to Jojo or given Pats
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: if you don't mind. I don't get to show him
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: off that much because usually when we do the shows,
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: it's later and Lindsay's home and JoJo's with her, but
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: when she's at work, he's in here with me, so.
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: Now I don't want to show up at all.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: Yeah, it's okay, we got, we got, We've we've had
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: Voycat appearances lately, so that's that's okay.
- 1:21:50Speaker 3: She's she's really liking her little containment sphere or containment fillander. Yeah,
- 1:21:57Speaker 3: I've appreciated that.
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: Really, Jojo and Boidcat should ever meet, I don't know
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: what would happen, so it.
- 1:22:03Speaker 3: Could be a yeah, I mean, Scipio is fine with
- 1:22:06Speaker 3: void Cat like Jojo has never really gotten to spend
- 1:22:12Speaker 3: time with a cat.
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: He is really intrigued by them, but it comes across
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: as aggressive. I don't think he would hurt anyone. I
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: don't think he would because one time I went to
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: a dog park and some guy showed up with an
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: albino turkey, a huge turkey, and he was walking around
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: the dog park with the turkey, and he insisted I
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: bring my dog over, and Jojo was slobbering at the turkey.
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: But I brought him over and Jojo didn't kill it,
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: so I was grateful. He just sort of smelled it.
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: And that's all he wants to do. He wants, he
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: wants to He's a hound. He wants to sniff things. Yeah.
- 1:22:46Speaker 3: Yeah, Skep is pretty good with the cats. So I mean,
- 1:22:50Speaker 3: if you raise a dog with cats, they tend to
- 1:22:52Speaker 3: like cats. Although cats outside of the containment unit that
- 1:22:57Speaker 3: Scipio thinks cats should be in might get chased. Yeah,
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: and then he's like, I must contain you because you
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: are outside of your containment unit. Cat. Although he does
- 1:23:09Speaker 3: not like cats and cages, he's particularly offended by seeing
- 1:23:12Speaker 3: cats in cages.
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: Who built the cages? Joe?
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, all right, so anyway, yeah, thanks guys for
