Transcript
- 0:00Hello everybody, and welcome to Honey Badger Radio. My name is Brian.
- 0:04This is the call in show the Badger Lodge. I hope you guys are
- 0:09doing well. Sorry for the weird technical problems. Something was going on with
- 0:14restream dot io and it created extra streams needlessly, so I apologize for any
- 0:21confusion you guys may have had. I know that there's like a bunch of
- 0:26alerts in the in the discord. It's it's it was weird, but I
- 0:30think we got it all straightened out now, so appreciate you guys coming on.
- 0:34Sorry for the confusion. And unfortunately I'm not gonna be on camera today
- 0:40because there's something wrong with the OBS and camera interface. It might be because
- 0:46I've been doing so much so many other things with my camera setup, like
- 0:52thevtuber and you know this kind of stuff, so I have to like work
- 0:56through that. And I wasn't expecting to do a call in show today.
- 1:00I normally do them the first week of November. I may do another one
- 1:03on the first week in November, but I'm just covering today because Hannah is
- 1:08unfortunately not gonna be able to do an HBr talk this week because she has
- 1:15some family, some family issues, and she's dealing with that. So you
- 1:21know, my thoughts go out to Hannah and I hope everything is gonna be
- 1:25okay. Meanwhile, you guys are I guess you're just stuck with me today.
- 1:27So we're gonna be taking calls, but we're also gonna be talking about
- 1:32a particular story that I would like to get into, and it deals with
- 1:37a cause player named Inquisitor III, and I'm gonna get into a bit of
- 1:44the story on that in a moment. But the subject of today's show,
- 1:48and I don't really know how to put this lightly because it seems that YouTube
- 1:53it's particular about like the language people use, But we're gonna be talking about
- 1:59suicide, specifically suicide in men. I think it's absolutely important. I think
- 2:06it's crucial, and this Inquisitor story is a very real example of why this
- 2:15is so serious. So I guess, first up, let me let's get
- 2:22into the story. But before we do, just a couple of things.
- 2:25If you guys like this video, please smash that like button now, because
- 2:30it does help us reach more people while we're alive. This is something that
- 2:35can be super useful. And maybe because we are talking about inquisitor. Maybe
- 2:39some of the people from like the Twitch gaming community, the streaming community will
- 2:46notice this and see that I'm talking about it, or that we are talking
- 2:47about it here at HBr. We talk about male suicide all the time.
- 2:53It is a big problem. It is overlooked and frankly, it is the
- 2:59majority of suicides and so but for some reason we don't really talk about it
- 3:04in the way that we should, and it specifically, this story is interesting
- 3:07because of the thing that drove him to suicide is another very big men's issue.
- 3:16So please hit that like button and we are doing our monthly fundraiser.
- 3:22This is like basically how I make my living and so like, if you
- 3:27guys can help us out, it would be great. Otherwise I'm just gonna
- 3:30have to get another job and i won't be doing this either as much or
- 3:34at all. And maybe some of you will think that that's a promise and
- 3:38you'll be happy to see me go, but but that is the reality.
- 3:43So if you can support us, go to feed thebatchel dot com force slash
- 3:46support and see if you can give us a hand with that. I'm always
- 3:50trying to find new ways to make this show fun and raise up the bar
- 3:54in some way. You know, I'm not really a producer, was never
- 3:59really thing I wanted to do, but I really like what we do here.

- 4:06learning these how to use these tools to try to give you guys an entertaining
- 4:11show. So go to feed the Badgel dot com forward Slash support to help
- 4:16us out. And also if you want to send us a message. Let's
- 4:20say you want to send us a message and you don't want to use uh

- 4:48to worry about you know, like what we say as much. I can
- 4:53talk about suicide without worrying about you know, demonetization and throttling and all of
- 4:57that. So now that all of that is out of the way. I
- 5:01guess we're gonna get into the stories. As you can see, I am
- 5:05displaying your chat in the window here. So yeah, let's get into Let's
- 5:11get into the the I guess you could say the main subject. So this
- 5:18is from Evinews evinmagazine dot com. There isn't like. This is probably the
- 5:25best source other than a bunch of videos that I think would be relevant to
- 5:30this. So that's why I chose them. And I think that they have
- 5:33a you know, professional like a pretty professional level in terms of what they
- 5:39make. So no other reason other than that, you know, I don't
- 5:42really want some gossip site on the screen or whatever if I can help it,
- 5:46Okay, So who is Inquisitor three? Cosplayer kills himself on TikTok Live
- 5:54after being falsely accused of grooming a minor. A popular cosplayer named Vincent Pleachi,
- 6:00who goes by Inquisitor Ghost, is believed to have committed suicide during a
- 6:05TikTok live and his viewers are now demanding justice. And I'll read through the
- 6:14article and then we can talk a little bit about it. So Inquisitor Ghost
- 6:17at Inquisitor III on TikTok, whose real name is Vincent Pleachi was an Italian
- 6:24Call of Duty cause player on social media. He amassed over one hundred thousand
- 6:29followers on the video sharing app and frequently uploaded content of himself dressed as the
- 6:34video game character Simon Ghost Riley. His account is now banned from the platform,
- 6:42and here is a post from x that says, I can't believe TikTok
- 6:46banned his account. We lost the incredible memories of an incredible man. I
- 6:50feel so bad. On October ninth, Inquisitor went on TikTok Live. The
- 6:57people who joined in the middle of the live stream only a dark, empty
- 7:00room at night. The chat was turned off, so his audience was unable
- 7:03to comment. Suddenly, his windows were smashed and someone appeared to perform CPR
- 7:10on Inquisitor. As another unknown individual was on the phone, a voice was
- 7:14heard demanding an Italian to call someone for help. According to sports Gita,
- 7:18another said he was hanged there and asked where the f are they? So
- 7:27so he went on TikTok Live and he hung himself. Now it wasn't on
- 7:34camera. I don't know if that was. I don't know if like the
- 7:40purpose was for people to find his body or what. But yeah, it's
- 7:47it's tragic. But let's get into why so. Spider Noir's wife says,
- 7:54this is a Twitter X person. They say, I don't know what to
- 7:57say. I just hope that some miracle happened and that paramedics saved him,
- 8:01even if so many people are saying he's dead. Hashtag Inquisitor ghost. Social
- 8:07media users speculate that the cosplayer killed himself on TikTok Live, and his death
- 8:13was reportedly confirmed by a friend. A woman who appeared to be romantically involved
- 8:18with Inquisitor posted photos of herself with the cosplayer, and her caption also suggests
- 8:24that he passed away, and she wrote this quote, now your anxiety is
- 8:28gone. You are in a quiet place. I am grateful that you have
- 8:31finally found peace. I love you, PS your padme. So why did
- 8:39Inquisitor kill himself? Now? I want to point out that from what I
- 8:45can tell, he was a Call of Duty fan, a cos player,
- 8:50and he was pretty wholesome. He would play guitar on his tiktoks and hang
- 8:56out with his audience, So, like, you know, not a toxic
- 9:01guy at all, not at all a toxically masculine man, okay, and
- 9:07I will show you guys. This is a clip from uh that someone.
- 9:13Because his his account was banned, so they're there. You can't really find
- 9:18his content on TikTok. So this is him dressed up and he is getting
- 9:28I think he gets excited about like being followed or retweeted by somebody he's a
- 9:33big fan of. So let's play this. We did it. Say the
- 9:45Theory just just followed me. Save the Theory just followed me on Instagram.
- 9:50Say the Theory just followed me on Instagram. Say the Theory just followed me
- 9:54on Instagram, And send me a message, send me oh my god,
- 10:03oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,
- 10:07oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my
- 10:11god. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 10:18I'm not ready. I'm right, I'm already, I have already. I
- 10:26am not as oh my god. So just like if you know he's in
- 10:43his early twenties, he was in his early twenties, just like kind of
- 10:46a fanboy, cosplayer, hobbyist. He you know, had a social media
- 10:52presence, had a number of followers, seemed very well liked, just a
- 10:58decent guy, very popular. So like just totally wholesome, right, Like,
- 11:07so young, so young, This is such a shame. So then
- 11:13why did he kill himself? Let's find out. There are a lot of
- 11:18key players to this story, so try to keep up. Several people have
- 11:22stated that Inquisitor twenty three is twenty three years old, was accused of inappropriately
- 11:28interacting with a minor by three individuals in the Call of Duty fandom. A
- 11:33woman who goes by Keegan's mask, a man named Tito at Tito's acting badly,
- 11:39and a seventeen year old girl named aj And there's an ex post here
- 11:50from someone named cod Leach. Another guy said he had nothing to defend himself
- 11:54with. Everyone should believe the girls. I'm so mad because I keep seeing
- 11:58miners playing this game to court, slash, screenshot everything, using lies to
- 12:01cancel people's lives. Y'all stay away from miners. Don't even breathe in their
- 12:07direction. So this guy or woman, I don't know who it is,
- 12:13is essentially just saying, believe girls. Okay, if you're like, if
- 12:16you're in this sort of multiplayer gaming space, there's gonna be younger people and
- 12:22older people mixing it up. And this person is saying everyone would believe the
- 12:28girls right. Screenshots began circulating online of messages between AJ, seventeen year old,
- 12:35and Inquisitor, but it was later found that AJ was a woman.
- 12:39Seventeen continuously contacted Inquisitor and lied about her age. The cosplayer even had miners
- 12:46DNI in his bio, which stands for miners do not Interact. So if
- 12:50you put minors DNI in your bio, you're basically telling everyone I don't want
- 12:56to talk to you know, miners. Okay, So here's a video from
- 13:05the DA Advocate. I want to like, should I should refresh this because
- 13:09I think it's gonna start from the from the middle, So let me refresh
- 13:13this page and then I'll play it. Uh So the Dadvocate is all right,
- 13:18I'm gonna try and get her on the show. I have seen her
- 13:22on Roma's channel, I think so. The Dadvocate's all right, So I'm
- 13:26gonna play this this TikTok video from the dad. I think it's a TikTok
- 13:31I'm not really sure. This popular cause player, who went by the name
- 13:33of Inquisitor III, tragically took his own life recently on TikTok Live following a
- 13:39slew of false accusations against him. His home was successfully entered and CPR was
- 13:43performed, but tragically, his father has confirmed his passing. He was only
- 13:48twenty three years old. His accusers are a twenty year old man who we
- 13:52only know is Tito, this adult woman who we only know as Keegan's mask,
- 13:56and Tito's seventeen year old minor girlfriend, who we only know is The
- 14:00plot to forge false allegations against Inquisitor three began in mid to late September when
- 14:05Tito and his minor girlfriend AJ began exchanging texts like these. AJ asks what
- 14:09the are we gonna do? Tito responds, It's not a life or death
- 14:13crisis, and here's what I want you to do. I want you to
- 14:15keep flirting with him and see where it goes. If he starts to get
- 14:18then I will expose him. We just need better and more proof. However,
- 14:22their attempts didn't work, and as you can see here, when AJ
- 14:24attempts to say things like I love you, date me, and Quisitor three
- 14:28plainly rejects her, saying you should ask in general if you can DM me.
- 14:31She says, oh sorry, can we get to know each other?
- 14:33Nope? Why she says, I'm not a minor a lie, but he
- 14:39says, I'm not interested. I'm sorry. AJ even acknowledges that Inquisitor had
- 14:45minor DNI, which means do not inbox in his bio, and she chose
- 14:48to still lie. This is her message in Keegan talking about how they need
- 14:52to get more evidence. So at the behest of these two adults Tito and
- 14:56Keegan's mask, AJ then offers to start doing some editing work for Inquisitor three,
- 15:01which he accepts, believing she is an adult. Once AJ started doing
- 15:05edits for Inquisitor three, she Tito and Keegan's mask be and saving any and
- 15:09every message that read as even remotely flirty between the two of them and their
- 15:13campaign against him. But Inquisitor caught onto this and even started to call her
- 15:16out. He said, I'm not a fan of the way you acted.
- 15:20Huh. If you can, please stop texting me to be very kind.
- 15:22Damn, what did I do? I just want you to see this.
- 15:24You know me, you know who I am. I never exposed you.
- 15:28I just want to talk with you again. As he becomes more and more
- 15:31wise to the accusations they're starting to make about him, she starts to act
- 15:33even more stupid. He provides screenshots, however, of her saying you do
- 15:39know he's a right? I got a lot of proof, he says,
- 15:41So who's this. That's when she starts to say I didn't do that.
- 15:46Oh no way, my friend Diana's on my account, he says, bro
- 15:50get alive. And in early October, after Inquisitor three decided to finally stop
- 15:54talking to AJ for good after hearing she was trouble, Keegan's Mask left the
- 16:00charge and they launched their attack against him. It wasn't much, but Keegan's
- 16:03Mask began sharing these messages out of context in a desperate attempt to paint Inquisitor
- 16:07as a predator. The thing she left out, however, is that these
- 16:11were just enthusiastic responses to him, finding that she had created so many edits
- 16:15for him in such a brief amount of time, and also fully believing she's
- 16:18an adult, but because she's a pretty popular girl, Keegan's Masks accusations spread
- 16:22like wildfire, and after multiple days of online and offline attacks, having the
- 16:30worst and heftiest accusations lodged against him, and believing that his life was over,
- 16:36Inquisitor III left us. Kegan and Tito have both issued statements, not
- 16:41apologies or condolences, mind you, but excuses that all they did was share
- 16:45their concerns. But as the rest of us remained devastated and broken in the
- 16:51wake of these unnecessary lies, we do have a lot of questions to ask.
- 16:56Should miners face repercussions for lying about their age online, especially that results
- 17:00in so much damage? Is there any justice these false accusers will face or
- 17:03will they just remain anonymous trolls online forever. If you are a man feeling
- 17:07depressed, anxious, or struggling at all, please remember that there is a
- 17:11crisis hotline at nine eight eight in the States, or just reach out to
- 17:15literally anyone. I can promise you that your brothers would always rather you cry
- 17:19on their shoulder than them be crying at your funeral. Prest In p s.
- 17:23Vincent, you didn't deserve this man so a competitor. Well, the
- 17:33suggestion is that there was someone who wanted to take him down a notch and
- 17:41they constructed this whole thing Tito Tito behaving badly or something like that. But
- 17:52there's more to it. I'm going to get into some more of this,
- 17:55So I'm gonna read the rest of this article, but this is this is
- 18:00the this is serious when it comes to false allegations. And I can tell
- 18:07that this inquisitor guy was probably kind of a shut in, probably socially awkward.
- 18:17His girlfriend remarks on him having anxiety. Unfortunately, in young people today
- 18:22this is especially common, you know, zoomers, even millennials and alphas,
- 18:30like not alpha males, but like generation Alpha that's the youngest one coming up
- 18:36right now. They there is like more of this kind of like social anxiety
- 18:41because they don't get socialized. And when you're take into consideration that of the
- 18:47whole world locked down for two and a half years, I can understand that
- 18:52it's a challenge. And suicide rates did spike during the lockdowns, so that's
- 19:00another thing to taking consideration. But allegations like this are extremely extremely dangerous.
- 19:11I don't think that a mild mannered person could take you know, could take
- 19:18it if if they because sometimes when you make these allegations and you have everyone
- 19:22coming after you, and I haven't read I'm gonna finish the article, but
- 19:25I just want to say, you know, when you have this happening,
- 19:29look at even someone like Justice Kavanaugh. Brett Kavanaugh was a you know,
- 19:37trying to become Supreme Court justice. So you would think that someone who has
- 19:41to be like a judge on the Supreme Court would would have like, you
- 19:47know, a very strong will, a very strong sense of purpose, right
- 19:55to do their job, like it's a very important position. And these allegation
- 20:00still drove him to tears. And of course the people making the allegations they
- 20:03just they just made fun of him for it. So this is the kind
- 20:07of sympathy that men get. Yes, Kavanaugh was their political enemy in the
- 20:12eyes of the people making these allegations, but it goes beyond that in that
- 20:18because he is a man, they can make these allegations, and women generally
- 20:23will believe it if they think that it's you know, because they they they
- 20:27believe women, like they literally believe women. So with this guy, he's
- 20:33not like he's just a young he's just a kid. Really. I mean,
- 20:37he's in his early twenties, but or was in his early twenties.
- 20:41But he's just a kid. So how do you cope with that? What
- 20:45if you actually start to question whether or not you did do something, maybe
- 20:48you did say something inappropriate, maybe you take back, you regret having said
- 20:52something that sounded, you know, more suggested than it actually is. This
- 20:57is a problem. So I got a super chat from look here forgotten the
- 21:04super childs. Send to super chowlds and I will read them. I got
- 21:07a super chat from Ringo fed Win for four ninety nine and it looks like
- 21:14it's a dancing peach. I'm gonna say it's a dancing peach. Thank you
- 21:18Ringo for the dancing peach emoji. All right, but anyway, let's let's
- 21:26read through the rest of this. Nabin Boube says, this girl harasses him
- 21:33and he hires her as an editor. Lol. I don't know. I
- 21:37mean, maybe maybe he wanted to just have a professional relationship with her.
- 21:45She was supposedly very good at editing, because he was very grateful for that,
- 21:49so she was helping him out. It was probably because you know this,
- 21:53I don't know anything about the Call of Duty cosplay community, but they
- 21:57probably do favors for you each other, and there's a lot of networking and
- 22:00stuff just like any other right, so he didn't He probably didn't think that
- 22:06she was a snake until it was too late. I mean, my guess,
- 22:11so Okay, let's go on. According to some viewers, Tito and
- 22:17AJ created a plan to ruin Inquisitor's reputation. The plot to forge false allegations
- 22:22against Inquisitor THREI began in mid to late September, when Tito and his minor
- 22:26girlfriend AJ began exchanging texts like these, says the Dadvocate, A woman who
- 22:32has been following the incident on TikTok shout out to the dadvocate. By the
- 22:34way, she's all right from what I can tell. She proceeds to provide
- 22:41screenshots of messages between the perpetrators. One of these messages reads, quote,
- 22:45it's not a life or death crisis, and here's what I want you to
- 22:48do. I want you to keep flirting with him, that's Inquisitor and see
- 22:53where it goes. If he starts to get sexual, then I will expose
- 22:56him. We just need better and more proof. Attempt to seduce Inquisitor failed.
- 23:02Screenshots on discord show AJ asking Inquisitor if they could get to know each
- 23:06other, to which the cosplayer replies nope. AJ decides to lie and writes
- 23:11why I'm not a minor there? This is another YouTuber with an opinion on
- 23:21this. I mean it's a TikTok video. I will say that this woman,
- 23:27this aj she is a minor, but she's seventeen. I think that
- 23:32there is this suggestion because like her boyfriend, Tito, he's like twenty or
- 23:37maybe eighteen. He's very he's close to her age, and they're trying like
- 23:42see one of the things that I saw is just as an aside, okay,
- 23:48one of the things that I saw is that some people are trying to
- 23:52suggest that this Tito guy is actually the pedophile because he's twenty or eighteen something
- 24:00and his girlfriend is seventeen. And I think that is Firstly, it's unnecessary,
- 24:06like he's already you know, guilty of essentially like pushing this guy to
- 24:11suicide. Like that's enough, right. And I say that because I think
- 24:15that it's a it's very it's a very slippery slope to start pointing fingers at
- 24:22men and women, men who are older than women, but they're really close
- 24:26in age. Even if she's technically under eighteen and he's like over eighteen,
- 24:30I think that it's it's close enough that it's fine. Like if they met
- 24:33when they were like when he was sixteen and she was fourteen. Nobody would
- 24:37see a problem with that, right, So if there's like a two year
- 24:41difference, who cares. I don't think that's important. I think what's important
- 24:45is that they collaborated to destroy this guy's reputation and it ended up getting him
- 24:52killed. So when people make that, they're trying to throw in bonus points.
- 24:56It's not I don't need it, Like it's not necessary. I'm objective
- 25:00about it. You know, I've dated girls younger than me, but we
- 25:03like if I was a little older, like I was at eighteen years old
- 25:07in high school and she was like, you know, sixteen years old in
- 25:10high school, I don't I'm sorry, but I don't think that's pedophilia.
- 25:14I just don't. You know, we have an arbitrary line more or less,
- 25:18but like it's and it depends on the state, like in the US,
- 25:22some states it's sixteen, some states at eighteen. There might be places
- 25:25in the world where it's lower. So I don't want to get caught up
- 25:27in that because that's sort of like confusing the practical and real with the legal.
- 25:32But that doesn't matter. Like, what we're talking about is a false
- 25:34allegation that led to suicide. That's what matters. And they were trying to
- 25:38allege that he was a pedophile too, so this is also important, okay,
- 25:44but anyway, Yeah, they have Romeo and Juliet laws for people who
- 25:48were together like before one of them comes of age, and it makes sense.
- 25:53Again, it makes sense, all right. But anyway, let's play
- 25:56this video really quick. That is a video of a twenty three year old
- 26:03cosplayer who just took his own life on live due to false allegations of him
- 26:10being a pedophile. This girl named Keegan's Mask, who's a part of the
- 26:15cosplay community, and her boyfriend, who has almost a million followers, took
- 26:21to their platforms and spread false allegations and lies about this twenty three year old
- 26:26man talking to minors. I just cannot believe these two individuals drove this man
- 26:33to take his life. I hope they are punished with the fullest extent of
- 26:37the law. A whole ass crime was just committed. Keegan's Mask, the
- 26:42girl involved in all of this. She has deactivated her TikTok and her boyfriend
- 26:48has privated his TikTok. They are now backtracking with statements claiming that they never
- 26:55meant to do inquisitor harm, but they pushed him to the brink of him
- 26:59taking his own life on live. I would even go as far to say
- 27:03this is manslaughter and they should be punished. All right, let me I'm
- 27:12gonna keep reading the article. And also, guys call in. There's a
- 27:17link in the description to get into the discord. I got high inquisitors Swashbury
- 27:22in there to make sure that you know all of your audio stuff is working,
- 27:26and he'll get a sense of what it is you want to talk about.
- 27:27You can talk about this story. You can talk about suicide more broadly.
- 27:32Do you maybe you know someone who is suicidal or has committed suicide,
- 27:37or has talked about it or entertained it. Maybe you have, and if
- 27:41you have, maybe you have like some suggestions, like something that people can
- 27:45do, uh that like someone they can reach out to, some service or
- 27:51whatever, just something right, because this is I mean, this really bothers
- 27:56me. Like this, this is extremely evil behavior, and I don't like
- 28:03that people get caught up in these little details. That's why I stopped to
- 28:07talk about the age thing, because it doesn't really matter. Like if I
- 28:11think that accusing someone of pedophilia is more serious than like say, sexual assaults
- 28:17or something. But if they weren't gonna do that, then they want to
- 28:21destroy his reputation. They would have just done sexual assault or rape or something
- 28:25right harassment. It would have been enough. Maybe their mistake was they went
- 28:30too far and it was like you know too, I guess easy to disprove
- 28:36in the long run. But apparently nobody really started looking into it until after
- 28:40he took his own life. So there's that all right anyway. So AJ
- 28:48then offers to edit inquisitors videos, which he accepts, not knowing that she
- 28:52is a minor. Then Tito and AJ worked together to save the messages between
- 28:56her and Inquisitor. They then sent the screenshots to Keigan Keegan's Mask, a
- 29:00popular TikToker, and alleged that AJ was being groomed. So I want to
- 29:06comment to Kegan's Mask is this girl has nothing to do with any of this,
- 29:11but her platform is massive and she's probably a big old feminist. Let's
- 29:14be honest, Because if they brought the allegations to her and she didn't look
- 29:18into it, she didn't question it, she just ran with it, that
- 29:22means that she believed that this guy would do that, and that sounds like
- 29:26some shit a feminist would do, just saying I don't know for sure,
- 29:30but that's what I think. Okay. Unfortunately, it appears that she chose
- 29:37to believe Tito and AJ. Tito and Keegan's Mask began saving any and every
- 29:41message that read as even remotely flirty between the two of them. That would
- 29:45be AJ and the Inquisitor and their campaign against them, adds the Advocate.
- 29:52Here's another video. I will play this one. Oh, that's the one
- 29:56we already watched. Let's just keep going. Eventually, after if the rumor
- 30:00spread that he was speaking with a minor, Inquisitor realized that what was happening
- 30:03and asked AJ to stop texting him. Then, in early October, Keegan's
- 30:07mass reportedly shared the interactions between the cosplayer and the minor on TikTok. However,
- 30:14she posted the messages without context, so it ended up portraying Inquisitor as
- 30:18a predator and a pedophile. The enthusiastic responses Inquisitor sent to AJ may have
- 30:22come off as flirtatious without any additional information. One of the messages Inquisitor sent
- 30:29was I'm gonna marry you and thank you honey. Because This wasn't because he
- 30:33was actually making a proposal. Also, he didn't know that she was a
- 30:37minor. She kept lying to him about her age, but that is not
- 30:42important. This is just him being excited about how well, how good of
- 30:47a job she was doing on editing videos for him. So he was just
- 30:51like, it's like, you know, somebody does you a favor. You're
- 30:53like, oh my god, I love you. Right, you don't really
- 30:56mean it. It's not to be taken literally. But I guess now,
- 31:00guys, you just have to say what you have to watch what you say
- 31:03around around women. You just have to not talk to them. I guess
- 31:07like that's kind of where this is going, right. But Inquisitor wasn't actually
- 31:11trying to get with the miner. He was just very excited and thankful for
- 31:15the edits that she made. The thing she Keegan's Mask left out, however,
- 31:19is that these were just enthusiastic responses to him finding out that she had
- 31:23created so many edits for him in such a brief amount of time, and
- 31:27so fully believing and also fully believing that she is an adult. The rumor
- 31:33spread like wildfire in the TikTok community, and the comments eventually got to Inquisitor,
- 31:37who struggled with anxiety. A screenshot of a discord message from Inquisitor to
- 31:42on September twentieth reads, I'm very scared not gonna lie. I care so
- 31:47much for my community and the last thing I want is them seeing me like
- 31:51some monster. Tito and Keegan's Mask have a lot of followers. Compared to
- 31:56Inquisitor, the weight of the allegations and online attacks against him was too much
- 32:00to bear, and so he decided to end his life. So after that,
- 32:06prior to Tito deleting his account, because he deleted his account in shame,
- 32:09he said that he didn't want aj to expose Inquisitor and that he is
- 32:14a man of God and he didn't want any of this to happen. Before
- 32:17Keegan's Mask left TikTok, she made a video of herself staring out the window
- 32:22looking solemn. She wrote me watching mirror miners blatantly lie about their content creators
- 32:29for attention, adding that she was taking a break from social media for her
- 32:32mental health. She has also made a public apology, so Keegan's Mask comes
- 32:37out and apologizes, I I you know, I don't buy any of this
- 32:40shit. I just want to point out I don't buy it. Let's see
- 32:45if this is still here, Okay, I'll Oh my god, is this
- 32:51a fucking poem? What is this pros? I acted on what I thought
- 32:55was true, factual information from someone I trusted. At no point did I
- 32:59wish harm against the inquisitor, and it hurts me to hear the news of
- 33:04his passing. But I will not accept death threats, dosing and false allegations
- 33:07on how I handled the situation. As I said, I acted on what
- 33:12I was to believe was factual information from someone I had trusted and was used.
- 33:17Why do you believe all women? This is the problem. She I'm
- 33:23gonna call it right now, he gets masked. Did this because she is
- 33:27a woman, and she thinks that women never lie, and so she went
- 33:31along with it. And now she's trying to say, oh, I'm getting
- 33:35death threats, I'm getting docsing, I'm getting allegations. Welcome to the being
- 33:40a man, I guess on the internet. I'm a victim. I'm a
- 33:45victim in this right. I'm the victim, not the suicide guy, not
- 33:50the guy who's no longer with us me. I have taken down all posts
- 33:54regarding the situation, both out of respect for inquisitor as well as the urging
- 34:00details that the allegations may have been false. No, they were false,
- 34:02and you know it. I wanted to use my platform for good to expose
- 34:07allegations, to find a deeper truth. I never wanted to escalate the way
- 34:10it has. Yeah, because you think that these are the only men can
- 34:17commit these can be can be this way, only men can be like this.
- 34:25Okay, So anyway, this this continues. So now we have all
- 34:30of the people involved are crying victim. I saw Tito appeared on Chloe Roma's
- 34:37channel. They did like an interview, and and I mean, I have
- 34:43all all credit to Chloe Roma for bringing him on, getting getting him on,
- 34:46getting Tito on, and essentially tearing apart his story. But the point
- 34:52is that they all, they all tried to play victim. And and even
- 34:54Roma was really like she was going very easy on the girl because she was
- 35:01a minor. Her she claims that Tito groomed this underage girl to flirt with
- 35:07this guy to make an allegation. Like I'm sorry, but she's not twelve,
- 35:15she's seventeen. She knows what she's doing, Like I mean this,
- 35:20this is constantly like trying to put it all on men is It's just exhausting.
- 35:25It's exhausting. So anyway, yeah, and he's not a man of
- 35:30God. That's right. That's that's not that's not that's a lie. He's
- 35:32trying to hide behind that. That's that's not true. No way, okay.
- 35:37Anyway, aj allegedly posted a statement on TikTok to apologize for her actions,
- 35:43so allegedly. We don't have the statement, but she says, I
- 35:45didn't mean to hurt him. I went way too far with this. It
- 35:49said he didn't deserve that. And I know it's late, too late to
- 35:52apologize. It's too late to apologize, but I hope one day you can
- 35:55forgive me for my stupid actions. She requested people to stop sending death threats
- 36:00to everyone involved. The best thing to do is just not hate. She
- 36:04adds, a person died, Please do better cod community. I will do
- 36:08better myself. Rest in peace, Vincent. Remember when people on call of
- 36:14duty would just call you gay? So I miss that. So yeah,
- 36:21so that's the story. I think all the parties involved that push this guy
- 36:28to this point should suffer some kind of consequence. But what I'm hoping is
- 36:36that people in this space are gonna get red pilled by this, because this
- 36:43is what I mean. You know when I say before, the only way
- 36:45people are going to start to change is that they're suffering. I don't want
- 36:51suffering, but that seems to be the only way people take notice. And
- 36:54I did notice under Roma's video, which was exposing Tito, you know,
- 37:00as a co conspirator or a collaborator on this, on this terrible this,
- 37:07these terrible actions that drove this man to suicide because she was still giving them
- 37:15the AJ, the seventeen year old girl, she was still giving her an
- 37:19out by claiming that she was groomed. I think it's ridiculous. People were
- 37:25calling her out on it in her comments section. They were like, it's
- 37:29all you, You're always looking to blame the men. How about we just
- 37:31hold them both accountable? And I'm like, yeah, how about we hold
- 37:35them both accountable? How about we hold everyone accountable, all three of them,
- 37:39AJ, Tito, and what's her name? Mask? I mean it,
- 37:44it's why is this hard? You know? Why is this hard?
- 37:50Okay? So I got I'm ready to take some calls. I did get
- 37:55a message here, so I'm gonna read it and then I guess we'll we'll
- 38:00take your calls. Oh, by the way, I'm gonna be only going
- 38:05for wow. I started a little late, so I guess I'm at about
- 38:08five fifteen, so maybe in about a half an hour, I'm gonna end
- 38:13the show. So I'm gonna be taking calls for the next half hour,
- 38:16and then I'm gonna do a Patron show. So if you joined us on
- 38:21the Patron Show, I'm gonna be looking at this article. This is a
- 38:22completely different subject report. Pixar chief Pete Doctor believes company has drifted too far
- 38:30from its storytelling roots. You don't say, you don't say, all right,
- 38:37but anyway, let's get close up here and I'm gonna take some questions
- 38:44and call so F's in the chat for inquisitor, which is actually really appropriate
- 38:52because it wasn't press f to pay respects. A call of duty thing seems
- 38:57kind of appropriate. And also his fans, so one of his dreams was
- 39:04to have him as a skin in a Call of Duty game, and the
- 39:13people in the community are signing a petition to get his skin made, and
- 39:17I think it's probably reached its goal. I'll find it for you guys,
- 39:22and i'll put it in the description. I just remembered the petition, so
- 39:25let's hope. So let's hope. So even though you know Act Division and
- 39:30they're pretty woke, so I don't know if they're gonna do it, but
- 39:34they said that they'll consider it, so we'll see, okay, So High
- 39:40Inquisitor s. Washbury, my inquisitor of the Call and Show, says,
- 39:46Great Love, Immortal Venerable will not be coming on the show today, but
- 39:51would like to request that you interview Anil Murty, a founding member of the
- 39:54Save Indian Family Foundation Twitter handle real SIFs. He has been an active emorration
- 40:01in two thousand and five and can provide valuable insight on Indian law and culture
- 40:06and the measurable effect is it has had on men. Yes, I emailed
- 40:09him like a week ago or two weeks ago, but yes, I will
- 40:15definitely get him on. I'll try again, and maybe I'll just follow him
- 40:19on Twitter and then we'll we'll figure something out from there. So thank you
- 40:27Swash, and thank you Great Love, Immortal Venerable. It's a kind of
- 40:30a mouthful, all right. In the chat in the rumble. We got
- 40:35a rumble rant? What up? A Nova fan twenty one gives us a
- 40:38dollar and says f for respect. What I worry is if this evolves into
- 40:43mandatory good Samaritan laws. And here I thought the comic of a feminist robot
- 40:47accusing men of ignore grape was impossible. All right, So are there any
- 40:54other calls? I see skapegoat is in the screening room. I don't know
- 40:59if he's going to come on and ask a question, but yeah, so
- 41:07let me ask you guys this because I think this is becoming a bit of
- 41:10a conversation. Since no one's gonna call it, I'm gonna ask you guys,
- 41:15what do you think should be? Should there be a penalty for these
- 41:22allegations? I think I know that maybe that's just some rhetoric words, but
- 41:25I gotta ask, Okay, should there be a penalty to people who make
- 41:29false allegations or or build a story, you know, to frame someone or
- 41:35destroy someone's reputation? And what should it be? What do you think the
- 41:39penalty should be? You know, like, should it be prison time,
- 41:43a fine? Whatever? You know? And should it also be applied to
- 41:50minors? Because this girl, she's seventeen, So she's a minor technically,
- 41:54but she's like right there, right at the cusp, right, So I
- 41:59mean, am I being a bit like radical by saying she should absolutely face
- 42:05whatever the penalties an adult would for the same thing. And what should that
- 42:08be? Because I don't know if that we even have a law for people
- 42:14who make false allegations. It's one of the things that we've talked about.
- 42:16Why do women feel like they can make false allegations? Well they don't.
- 42:21They're not penalized for it, right, I mean, nothing happens if it
- 42:25turns out to be a lie, they'll Okay, let me somebody's asking for
- 42:31the discord link. Hold on a second. Uh, it should be up
- 42:37to date. But now I feel like I need to look. Are you
- 42:39guys having problems getting into the discord? All right? Hold on a second,
- 42:46just setting this through. Remember the discord link is in the description of
- 42:52this video, So look in the description the link, all right? Can
- 43:02naban Boob says Nave and Bubba says false accusers should face the same penalty as
- 43:08the accused convicted of the supposed crime would have gotten. I agree. I
- 43:14think that I think that it should be the same. So this way you're
- 43:17not gonna make the allegation and it has to be proven false. So because
- 43:22sometimes you know, like a lot of times, because rape is really hard
- 43:25to prove or whatever, because it's really hard to prove it's it. If
- 43:35the person is found not guilty, it doesn't mean that person lied. It
- 43:37might it might mean that it just couldn't be proven, right. But I
- 43:42think that if if you can prove that they that this is a false allegation
- 43:45with the express purpose of ruining somebody or throwing them in jail or whatever,
- 43:53I absolutely think there should be penalties for that. Okay, let me see
- 44:00Final Midnight says. With my involvement with the court system, one thing I
- 44:04have learned is that the courts are a very poor substitute for parenting. It
- 44:08is very much a blunt instrument. Oh yeah, absolutely, but it's one
- 44:13that women can use. Graendor says. What is difficult for me is the
- 44:20fact that this guy was driven to suicide by mob pressure. Yeah yeah,
- 44:24And I mean, like he was probably a pretty sensitive I assume he was
- 44:30a very sensitive soul, so probably you know, more prone to being affected
- 44:36by this kind of pressure than the average bear. But yeah, I don't
- 44:42think that makes it okay. I think that it's extremely unethical. It's evil,
- 44:47really. John Smith says, men don't have a good reputation to ruin
- 44:52by default. You can't damage a good reputation that does not exist. Well,
- 44:57that's true, but I guess that you know, because he was popular.
- 45:00So all right, and Swashburry says, I guess we got a call.
- 45:05Scapegoat has recently struggled with thoughts of suicide. As he is currently recovering,
- 45:09He would like to discuss the way that people like this often feel like
- 45:13they are at the end of the story and there's nothing left in their life.
- 45:15But sometimes even a small change is all it takes to get started.
- 45:20All right, Well, I'm gonna bring Scapegoat in here again. If you
- 45:22guys want, please feel free to call in, share your thoughts, you
- 45:29know, argue with me, whatever, and I'm gonna bring in Scapegoat.
- 45:34So here we go. Welcome to this call, Escapegoat, what's on your
- 45:38mind? Can you talk? Hello? Hello? I'm going to move him
- 45:53back for now. I don't know if he If he is he is he
- 46:00muted, let me let me because I don't know why but I can't hear
- 46:04him. Just make sure that his audio is working. Do it in the
- 46:17questions chat. Do it in the questions chat, not in the general because
- 46:22then I can't see it. All right, Uh Ola Ola cag Well,
- 46:32I can't pronounce that, but these Ola cacb says, I think it should
- 46:37be a crime to make false allegations, and it should be it should give
- 46:39prison time. Yeah, I guess you have to prove intent. That's the
- 46:44that's the tricky part. I think in this case, there was clearly intent.
- 46:46Like you got the receipts, you could see the conversation. You could
- 46:50see that the goal was to essentially tarnish his reputation. Well, okay,
- 46:57scapegoat, we're gonna try again. We're gonna bring him in here, all
- 47:00right, Hello, escapegoat. I think I hear something. Can you hear
- 47:05me? Yes? I can hear you perfect, all right. I wanted
- 47:12to tell It's like I've been struggling with suicide myself, and I can first
- 47:16hand say what the whole thing kind of feels like. And oh, I'm
- 47:24sorry. One moment, there's an echo. It's all right, Oh,
- 47:28are you getting an echo from me? Yeah? Because I'm listening to the
- 47:30show on my computer over there. Yeah, okay, that was That was
- 47:36silly of me. Anyway, when it comes to suicidal ideation, I can
- 47:45describe the feeling as you are being crushed by a wave of despair, and
- 47:52I could liken the feeling as to being quite literally, not well, not
- 47:55literally, but the feeling of being underwater. There's like the sensation of floating,
- 48:04and it's like being in a deprivation tank. Like your eyes function,
- 48:08your ears function, there is physically nothing wrong with you, but the feeling
- 48:15is like you when you're in the middle of that wave, you can't see
- 48:20anything, you can't hear anything, and like nothing seems to process. And
- 48:24while you're in that state, it seems like that you cannot perceive the future,
- 48:31like any ideas about what the future could hold not It's like even even
- 48:36tomorrow seems like extremely far away. And the unfortunate thing is I was talking
- 48:43with swash people who don't have these feelings kind of feel it's like it's like
- 48:52poetic lyricism as to what it feels like. And I would like to say
- 48:57this, like, no, this is like these feelings are quite literal.
- 49:00I can't hear anything, I can't see anything, I can't perceive anything.
- 49:05And me and my family had been evicted earlier this year, and we're kind
- 49:12of it's like I was put in this financial situation which it felt like there
- 49:16was nothing left for me because I was previous. It's like I was screwed
- 49:22out of my money that I had been saving up for years, and I'm
- 49:30put in a state in which it felt like even even when I was like
- 49:34even when I was safe, I kind of felt like I was stuck in
- 49:38one place and like, oh, well, I'm living with family right now,
- 49:44and I'm living with family that seems to hate me. This is going
- 49:47to be my life. This is going to be the rest of my life.
- 49:51What is the point of living if it's going to be nothing but misery
- 49:57from here on out. You you get into this idea that nothing will change,
- 50:05that you are living in a personal hell for the rest it's like for
- 50:09the rest of your existence. And people have this idea of if they even
- 50:15if they believe in religion, it's like anything is better than here. And
- 50:24me and Swash are talking about needing to make some kind of bold decision in
- 50:31order to break break that kind of feedback loop, that internal feedback loop and
- 50:37the like the cycles that we put ourselves in. It's like and one of
- 50:42the things that I try to do is I try to be very physical and
- 50:45I try to be very active. And I will say it's like having some
- 50:52kind of physical process in order to that you can progress at does help a
- 50:58little It's like, does help a little bit. And I will say,
- 51:06as hard as it is, there needs to be a level of spontaneity in
- 51:08your life that you do something crazy, you do something insane that you probably
- 51:15wouldn't have thought to do before, in order to break that loop. Yeah,
- 51:22so how so, so what what? Uh? What works for you
- 51:25or are you still struggling with It's for me, it's gotten better. Like
- 51:32after after we got evicted, I had to deal with the crushing wave.
- 51:38Like I I spoke on the mental health chat with Alison and I described as
- 51:45this wave being kind of periodic in which I could almost time it out.
- 51:50It's like, well, it's it's happening every other day. I feel like
- 51:53this wave of despair crushing over me every other day and it lasts for about
- 51:59this long. I would say one of the things that kind of helps is
- 52:07learning to articulate, Wow, learning to articulate exactly what is happening to you,
- 52:15what you're feeling, and kind of mentally compartmentalize what that feeling is.
- 52:25I think one of the things that kind of helped is like putting in the
- 52:30idea is like putting the idea in your head that this feeling, this feeling
- 52:37of despair, who you are under this wave isn't entirely you, right,
- 52:45this, this thing, this feeling isn't you, This isn't this isn't what
- 52:50makes the entirety of your existence. Put it aside for now or feel it
- 52:57is like have a moment to feel it, but put it is like put
- 53:00in your head that it's going to subside at least the momentary, like the
- 53:07the most intense feeling is going to subside. Yeah, And and being able
- 53:15to do that and being able to stay active kind of helped me as it
- 53:20kind of helped me mitigate the frequency in which those waves crashed onto me.
- 53:28And I'm at the point which like I haven't had like an attack like that
- 53:34a little over in a month, which is quite nice. It happens every
- 53:37once in a while, but it's kind of rare at this point. One
- 53:43of the other things is that change change. I changed my job. One
- 53:52of the reasons why I felt so miserable is that I realized that my job
- 53:55was disrespecting me in every possible way, and I kind of got into the
- 54:01mental state of like getting oh, oh, here's another thing you can do
- 54:06to actually help get angry. Getting getting really angry about something can actually motivate
- 54:15you to do something, or at the very least, it actually keeps your
- 54:19mind mentally running, not in circles, but it's like mentally active because anger
- 54:25anger is active, but being sad is kind of inert, you know,
- 54:30Yeah, yeah, I guess so, yeah, I mean I think that
- 54:36that there is definitely a place for it. I know that some people would
- 54:38say that's toxic masculinity, but I mean that they well, those people want
- 54:44you to commit suicide though, they want you to just you know, like
- 54:47they don't want you to actually express your emotions in the way that you you
- 54:52know that your body wants, which is probably what it needs. So they're
- 54:58yeah, they're just great. I mean, like this is why mental health
- 55:01services they just don't They're not good for men. They're not even like considering
- 55:07the male perspective. No, it's a it's a it's a fucking racket.
- 55:10Yeah, it's absolutely absolutely so, like you you have to essentially, men
- 55:15are just they We have to just figure the shit out on our own because
- 55:19like the pros don't they don't even understand men, Like they literally don't understand
- 55:22male psychology for some reason, at least most of them don't, you know,
- 55:28So I will say I will say this one of the biggest things that
- 55:35actually helped me kind of get into a better mental statan which I could actually
- 55:39be proactive about things. You know. It's like people need other people in
- 55:46order to survive. They they need confidence, they need someone who is actually
- 55:52willing to listen. And we we also have the responsibility to listen to other
- 56:00people when they're in that state. And I feel like the people who have
- 56:05been through the suicidal ideation, been through this mental crushing of waves and all
- 56:12that stuff. We have, sorry, we have such a capacity to understand
- 56:19not just the mentality but also the somatic blindness that we have, and we
- 56:23kind of it was like, we kind of owe it to other people that
- 56:27when we see it happen, we should be able to recognize it and actually
- 56:30be that confidant, and I know it's I know, it's one of those
- 56:36things of like you can't really help someone else until you're in a good place
- 56:40yourself. So I wish I could articulate this better, but I think ultimately
- 56:51I want to say, we need to be there for other people, and
- 56:53other people need to be there for us. Yeah. Well, yes,
- 56:58I think that's one of the things that I think that's good about what we
- 57:01do here is that we try to provide some community, because men need community,
- 57:07and they need a kind of community that is, you know, going
- 57:10to be let's say, engage in more encouragement, you know, and like
- 57:15support as opposed to like shaming or or put it, you know, putting
- 57:23people down. So yeah, I think that that we we men can figure
- 57:30out a lot of stuff, and they do, like they prefer solutions over
- 57:35talking about the problem. But I think that community and you know, I
- 57:40guess fellowship with other men is thing is crucial or just other people, like
- 57:45you know, there's good women do of course. Yeah, I will also
- 57:52say this some as like I was taught about this as a as like a
- 58:00programmer friend told me about like duck problems that this programmer would have a duck
- 58:07on his desk and kind of vocalize the problem to that duck, and then
- 58:12as they are vocalizing it, they actually figure out a solution to the problem.
- 58:15Like talking to a woman, you let the talk about the problems and
- 58:20you just listen. They'll they'll usually like they'll solve it themselves, you know.
- 58:24So then I don't then I feel like I helped just by being the
- 58:29duck. Yes, I do feel like some of us do need to be
- 58:34the duck, and like a lot of us, a lot of us do
- 58:37try to jump to like a solution to the problem when it feels like did
- 58:44you even listen to what I said? Is like that's not a thing.
- 58:46Yeah, And I feel like we when when I say it was like,
- 58:50we need to be listened to, it's like we need to actually listen and
- 58:53comprehend and actually absorb everything that's being said and then try to tackle the problem.
- 59:00Yes, it's like I feel like I feel like we're It's like sometimes
- 59:04we can be a little too hasty and trying to figure out a solution as
- 59:07opposed to just taking the time to absorb all of it. And it's a
- 59:12lot of burden. It is shouldering a lot of somebody else's burden. But
- 59:17there will come a day in which, like somebody needs to shoulder your burden,
- 59:21and it's like you kind of count on other people to be there for
- 59:24you, and so you have to do the same thing for them, paying
- 59:28it forward or catching it and all that stuff. Yeah, yeah, well,
- 59:35I guess, like any other thoughts before I end the call, Like
- 59:39you have anything else you want to say? People in the audience are saying
- 59:43that they hear you and they feel you know, the way you feel some
- 59:46of them, and they just want to empathize. So do you have anything
- 59:51that you want to add or say? There is people have this like this
- 59:57is a modern concept that has been so pervasive as of late that you peak
- 1:00:04at like twenty five, where you peak at twenty or the barrier of success
- 1:00:07ends at thirty. Yeah, I need to say something. We are living
- 1:00:14for a lot longer, for better or worse. There is so much more
- 1:00:20life ahead if you past your twenties, and you have to deal with that,
- 1:00:24and you have to approach that. It's like you have to be approach
- 1:00:28that with honesty. The days in which like our lives kind of get set
- 1:00:32on the path at twenty is kind of over now that it's like with the
- 1:00:36advent of everything, it's like with modernity happening. Don't be stuck in this
- 1:00:42kind of perpetuating cycle that your life is over, because it's like your life
- 1:00:47ends pretty much when you want it to. So don't make it now.
- 1:00:54Yeah all right, well said Yeah. I mean, I turned fifty a
- 1:01:00couple weeks ago, and I'm like, I had a what the hell are
- 1:01:02you doing with your life moment? But it's like, oh, I actually
- 1:01:06like what I'm doing, and I'm hoping to stick around for another fifty,
- 1:01:09so I like what you're doing too. Happy birthday by the way, Well
- 1:01:13thank you though that was like September, but I appreciate it, Thank you,
- 1:01:16thank you. All Right, Well, i'm gonna move you back into
- 1:01:19the screening room and uh yeah, thanks so much for the call in and
- 1:01:24appreciate your perspective. I appreciate the show, Briy. All right, I'm
- 1:01:30gonna move you back. Okay, So that was Scapegoat. Is no one
- 1:01:37else gonna call because if not, I'm gonna do a couple of little things
- 1:01:40about suicide specifically, and then I guess we'll go into the patron show cause
- 1:01:46I got a lot going on today. So I am looking at the screening
- 1:01:51room in case somebody else wants to jump in and say something I saw.
- 1:01:55Somebody ask me specifically for the leak so they can get in here, so
- 1:02:00I don't know why they're not in here, but okay, anyhow, So
- 1:02:07I want to look at suicide statistics. These are the most recent ones,
- 1:02:12so it only goes up to twenty twenty two, and as we know,
- 1:02:15statistics are always changing. But if you see suicide deaths, about one hundred
- 1:02:23thousand deaths, it looks like they were looking at the overall from twenty twenty
- 1:02:34one to twenty twenty two, it's gone up a little about two percent.
- 1:02:38But that's I mean. Obviously, we want to live in a world where
- 1:02:43there are no suicides, but sometimes it happens. But when you look at
- 1:02:45the gender split, you see that men are the winners. There is a
- 1:02:52suicide gap, and men have too much, too much, and it's gone
- 1:02:58up for both men and women. Run up everywhere across the board, basically
- 1:03:05except for if you're an American, Indian or Alaska Native. So I guess
- 1:03:07the natives have it good. I guess, so there's suicide rates going down,
- 1:03:13but it wasn't very high to begin with. But notice again, when
- 1:03:15you break it down by I guess racial group, white men have the highest
- 1:03:21rates of suicide. Do you think that the American Psychological Association or the United
- 1:03:29Nations or Citizens United or the SPLC, do you think any of them are
- 1:03:34going to raise a flag and say, well, we should do something about
- 1:03:37this. Do you think any of these progressive institutions are going to try to
- 1:03:43you'll figure out what's happening with white men, but especially men, because it's
- 1:03:50definitely the overwhelming majority. Like if you broke down this white into male and
- 1:03:53female, it would probably be like mostly male and very little female. Yeah,
- 1:04:03there are the winners. And you see uh, I think this is
- 1:04:13the same kind of chart. You see again whites in twenty twenty one thirty
- 1:04:19six thousand, sixty eighty one and twenty twenty two thirty seven thousand and four
- 1:04:24fifty nine. And again, if you break it down by gender, the
- 1:04:27females only make up about nine thousand, ten thousand, the males make up
- 1:04:31about forty thousand, so four times higher, four times higher in men,
- 1:04:38right, and in the age group again, it's like the middle age.
- 1:04:43It's the middle aged people twenty five to sixty four, but especially the twenty
- 1:04:47five through forty four that's the highest rate. So this isn't like, oh
- 1:04:54I'm old and I don't care anymore, right, So there is that I
- 1:05:00want to share that. And I know that I brought this up before that
- 1:05:03this has been a specific problem for white men, but I'm just I'm braising
- 1:05:10it again because again this brings me back to what I've been saying before.
- 1:05:14People who have an intersectional lens that they look at the world through, even
- 1:05:17if they claim to be MRAs, they are not going to be useful because
- 1:05:21they're going to be looking at white privilege and they're not gonna be looking at
- 1:05:25this chart. All right, so we know that suicide. What is the
- 1:05:35CDC doing to address this? Let's find out. So there's supporting states,
- 1:05:43tribes, territories, non governmental organizations, at university research programs to address for
- 1:05:47strategic priority areas in suicide prevention data using new and existing data to better understand,
- 1:05:54monitor and prevent suicide and suicidal behavior science, identifying risk and protect factors,
- 1:06:00and effective policies, programs and practices or suicide prevention in populations that increase
- 1:06:05risk for suicide action, building a foundation for CDC's National Suicide Prevention Program and
- 1:06:12collaboration, Developing and implementing wide reaching partnership and communication strategies to raise awareness and
- 1:06:17advance suicide prevention activities. What do you think would really happen? Let me
- 1:06:28ask you this because groups like the CDC and the UN and the American Psychological
- 1:06:35Association and the British Health Association and the Canadian Healthcare System and other major institutions
- 1:06:48that do work in psychiatry or psychology, do you think that they would look
- 1:06:56at the suicide rate for men, and in particular white men, and say,
- 1:07:02what is it that we are not doing for them? Or do you
- 1:07:05think they will say what is it that those men are doing to themselves to
- 1:07:10put them in this position? What is the predominant narrative around being a man
- 1:07:15in society when when the topic of suicide comes up? What do they say
- 1:07:23about men committing suicide? What do they say? Do they say that,
- 1:07:27oh, we should probably stop shitting on them all the time, or that
- 1:07:31we should look into what it is in their life that they are missing,
- 1:07:34or we should invest in you know, allowing men to socialize and form bonds
- 1:07:42and community with other men. What do you think? What do you think
- 1:07:45their answer is? And how good do you think that will be? So
- 1:07:49by state, I guess they have some setup by say this is unfortunately this
- 1:07:54is only in the US. I'd be curious about other countries though, But
- 1:08:00it looks like Virginia, where I live, it's not doing bad, and
- 1:08:03Illinois isn't bad either. But I guess most people are getting shot, not
- 1:08:08necessarily suicided aged. Just at death rates. Why is Alaska so high?
- 1:08:15Is it really tough there? Well? Suicide rates by state, Yeah,
- 1:08:23looks like Alaska, Montana, Wyoming pretty bad, South Dakota, Colorado,
- 1:08:29New Mexico crazy, Alaska, It's like the King. I guess it's cold
- 1:08:35up there, but I don't know what counts as the suicide anyway. And
- 1:08:40check this out. This brings me back to what I was getting at before.
- 1:08:43This is from PBS News Dot uh whatever Org. CDC data shows US
- 1:08:50teen girls in crisis with unprecedented rise in suicidal behavior. EBS looked at this
- 1:09:05and said, oh no, the girls. And look, I know it's
- 1:09:11hard. I know that girls have it hard. I know that they deal
- 1:09:14with shit. I know that we put them on SSRIs, which we probably
- 1:09:17shouldn't be doing. But when you look at this data and your first thought
- 1:09:24is what about the girls, like it's it's in crisis, it's and then
- 1:09:34of course they go into some other shit like this is not long ago,
- 1:09:39this is February of this year. The pandemic took a harsh toll on US
- 1:09:42teen girls's mental health, with almost sixty percent reporting feelings of persistence, sadness,
- 1:09:46or hopelessness. According to a government survey released Monday that bolsters earlier data,
- 1:09:50Sexual violence, suicidal thoughts, suicidal behavior, and other mental health woes
- 1:09:56affected many teens, regardless of race or ethnicity, but girls and LGBTQ youth
- 1:10:00fair the worst in most measures, according to the Centers for to Least Disease
- 1:10:05Control and Prevention report. So men kill themselves more often, women most affected.
- 1:10:17Anyway, it doesn't like I'm gonna get any more calls, and we
- 1:10:20are getting to the end of this, so I'm going to put out a
- 1:10:26statement, no more questions, and we're gonna end it there. But thank
- 1:10:34you, skatego for calling in and giving us your thoughts and thank you guys
