- 0:00Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to HBr Talk three ninety two, No
- 0:05Speaker 1: breaks on the Female Gripe Train. I'm your host, Hannah Wallen,
- 0:10Speaker 1: here with nonsense annihilator Laren Brooks, the personification of perceptivity,
- 0:14Speaker 1: Mike Stevenson, Hello, Richard the lion Hearted, and the doge
- 0:18Speaker 1: in Charge, Brand Altinez. Hello to all of you, and
- 0:23Speaker 1: hopefully hopefully everybody's not losing their minds right now with
- 0:28Speaker 1: all the shit that's going on. But we're not going
- 0:31Speaker 1: to talk about all the shit that's going on. We're
- 0:33Speaker 1: just going to talk about this in sell article for now.
- 0:37Speaker 1: I promise you I'm not avoiding aaran. I'm watching to
- 0:43Speaker 1: see what's going to happen. I already said my piece
- 0:45Speaker 1: about it two days ago in HBr News, and now
- 0:53Speaker 1: it's kind of a wait and see what's going to
- 0:55Speaker 1: happen next because the the legal maneuverings in the changes
- 1:01Speaker 1: that are going to be taking place there, sometime we'll
- 1:04Speaker 1: find out.
- 1:04Speaker 2: At some point we'll find out that yes, women are
- 1:07Speaker 2: now allowed to dress thiss halls, but there is still
- 1:11Speaker 2: some stuff happening to Iranian men.
- 1:14Speaker 1: I really hope that's not the only reason why we
- 1:18Speaker 1: I know that's not the only reason why we went
- 1:19Speaker 1: in there, but in any case, there are right now
- 1:23Speaker 1: the pot is brewing and it's too soon to taste it.
- 1:28Speaker 1: We'll just we'll just leave it at that. The stew
- 1:30Speaker 1: is brewing and it's too soon to taste it. So
- 1:35Speaker 1: so with that out of the way, we'll get into
- 1:40Speaker 1: what we actually are getting into today. I don't know
- 1:44Speaker 1: if I actually mentioned the doche in charge now, because
- 1:47Speaker 1: it's been a minute since then and I can't remember
- 1:50Speaker 1: what I said.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Everyone knows the Mexican is in charge.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Uh.
- 1:55Speaker 2: We like to tell ourselves that that Allison is in charge,
- 1:59Speaker 2: but it's I know he's not a Mexican.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Because Karen calls him a shipwrecked Mexican and think that's
- 2:07Speaker 1: the term. Oh my gosh. But I still need him
- 2:13Speaker 1: to do the things that I have yet to actually
- 2:17Speaker 1: even study how to do. And I promise you not
- 2:21Speaker 1: being a lazy shit. I am working eighty hours a week,
- 2:28Speaker 1: so I don't have time to sit and read. Every
- 2:31Speaker 1: so often, I have time to tweet something that I
- 2:35Speaker 1: don't have to do a lot of research in order
- 2:37Speaker 1: to tweet it. And aside from that, you guys probably
- 2:41Speaker 1: haven't heard from me very much. Sorry about that, but
- 2:45Speaker 1: things are changing, and hopefully in the next few months
- 2:49Speaker 1: I will not be working eighty hours a week, right
- 2:54Speaker 1: there we go. That a change, I hope, so, I hope. So,
- 3:00Speaker 1: although I will say the money from the overtime is
- 3:04Speaker 1: really nice, Yeah, that is. That is a benefit, and
- 3:08Speaker 1: we have had to use it on a number of things.
- 3:10Speaker 1: For for instance, when you purchase a diesel truck that
- 3:16Speaker 1: was made thirty years ago, it does have some idiosyncrasies.
- 3:24Speaker 1: And also I'm pretty sure it doesn't like the gas
- 3:27Speaker 1: from a certain grocery store chain that I believe started
- 3:30Speaker 1: in the Dayton metro area.
- 3:33Speaker 3: Uh.
- 3:33Speaker 1: And so now we are spending more money in it.
- 3:36Speaker 1: But that is as it is. In the meantime, we
- 3:42Speaker 1: are going to get started. We are going over some
- 3:45Speaker 1: some true absolute code of the cult of the bee,
- 3:54Speaker 1: of the itching Itchyb's everywhere in this in this article.
- 4:01Speaker 1: But before we get into that, we got to do
- 4:04Speaker 1: what we gotta do, which we got to do every
- 4:07Speaker 1: single time, just in case somebody hasn't heard it. As always,
- 4:10Speaker 1: Honey Badger Radio dishes out a smorgasboard of thought provoking
- 4:14Speaker 1: discussions and has experiences both recent and long past have
- 4:17Speaker 1: demonstrated the provoked thoughts are fighting back. They've made it
- 4:23Speaker 1: clear that for people like us, relying on third party
- 4:26Speaker 1: payment platforms like Patreon to fund our work is treading
- 4:28Speaker 1: on thin ice or building our house in the path
- 4:31Speaker 1: of a rapidly growing wildfire. In light of this, we
- 4:35Speaker 1: strongly encourage our supporters to switch at least their support
- 4:38Speaker 1: for us to Feed the Badger dot com the most
- 4:41Speaker 1: stable way to help us out. And if you want
- 4:44Speaker 1: to tip us directly instead of relying on any social
- 4:46Speaker 1: media platforms, tip jar. The link for that is feed
- 4:49Speaker 1: the Badger dot com slash just the tip And as always,
- 4:53Speaker 1: the same risk applies to our social media platforms, which
- 4:57Speaker 1: is why you should further provoke the thought police by
- 5:01Speaker 1: tracking our thought provoking discussions on Honeybadger Brigade dot com,
- 5:05Speaker 1: where you can find a link to find your way
- 5:08Speaker 1: to all of our content, as well as a link
- 5:10Speaker 1: to Feed the Badger dot Com in the drop down
- 5:12Speaker 1: menu at the top of the page. So last week
- 5:19Speaker 1: we started talking and we started with this article or
- 5:22Speaker 1: this paragraph about MiG too, and I find it's one
- 5:26Speaker 1: of the things I find interesting about this before we
- 5:29Speaker 1: actually start reading again, is how defensive and how aggressive.
- 5:40Speaker 1: In some ways, women in general, not just feminists, but
- 5:44Speaker 1: women in general, get toward the idea of men simply
- 5:50Speaker 1: not pursuing closeness with women of any kind, the men
- 5:55Speaker 1: not trusting women, men not making their lives all about women.
- 6:03Speaker 1: Like as soon as a man like, they'll they'll tell
- 6:05Speaker 1: us they want men to leave women alone, stop bothering women,
- 6:11Speaker 1: stop being pests toward women. And uh, if you show
- 6:16Speaker 1: an interest in women, that makes you a sex pest, right,
- 6:20Speaker 1: you're you're you're accused of that. But then at the
- 6:23Speaker 1: same time, if you don't, and you tell people that
- 6:30Speaker 1: you don't in any way, shape or form, you posted
- 6:33Speaker 1: in a maketele forum, Uh, you call yourself a make
- 6:37Speaker 1: tee man going his own way, men going their own way.
- 6:40Speaker 1: If you say anything to that degree at all, then
- 6:45Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're hateful and dangerous and scary,
- 6:51Speaker 1: and uh, you need to be corralled, you know, Laura
- 6:56Speaker 1: Laura Bates said in her book men who hate women
- 7:01Speaker 1: because of course, not doing exactly what women say, doing
- 7:05Speaker 1: exactly what women have asked is hateful toward women.
- 7:09Speaker 2: This is the important difference between an in cel and
- 7:12Speaker 2: a magtaile. A feminist will never accuse an inceel of
- 7:19Speaker 2: being a magtail, but they will accuse every magtail of
- 7:22Speaker 2: being an in cell. Now, I'm sure some of you
- 7:26Speaker 2: can already figure out why that is and what that means,
- 7:32Speaker 2: but it's important to explain to those who don't understand.
- 7:38Speaker 2: An in cell is a derogatory term invented by feminists.
- 7:44Speaker 2: And yes, it was invented by feminists. It's unfortunate that
- 7:48Speaker 2: so many men have adopted that term, but it was
- 7:51Speaker 2: invented by feminists around the time of Elliott Roger and
- 7:58Speaker 2: I'm hope I don't get this whole stream taken down,
- 8:02Speaker 2: but just mentioning its name. But ever since that happened, it.
- 8:05Speaker 4: Was it was, it was effected. It was effected before that,
- 8:09Speaker 4: so in the nineties, But it wasn't.
- 8:12Speaker 2: It wasn't invented by the men who are tarred with
- 8:17Speaker 2: that phrase. It was invented by.
- 8:21Speaker 3: Go on.
- 8:23Speaker 4: It was called info. Then it got turned into in
- 8:26Speaker 4: cell in the late nineties early thousands. So the words
- 8:30Speaker 4: the word, the word fault over time.
- 8:33Speaker 2: And yeah, the whole idea is go on.
- 8:39Speaker 3: So the whole concept of it.
- 8:42Speaker 4: So a woman came up the word info after she
- 8:46Speaker 4: wanted to find a partner. She then abandoned the group
- 8:49Speaker 4: infil because she found a partner, and then the word
- 8:53Speaker 4: got turned into what it got turnted by feminist.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an in cell is. An in cel is
- 9:02Speaker 2: a man who worships women but is tragically unable to
- 9:10Speaker 2: touch them. That's basically what it means. And a megtail
- 9:17Speaker 2: is a man who does not worship women and has
- 9:21Speaker 2: no interest in touching them. He has found other things
- 9:25Speaker 2: in life. He has found things in life higher than
- 9:30Speaker 2: touching a woman. And feminists can't stand this. Women, you know,
- 9:37Speaker 2: I'm entrenched in the modern feminist paradigm, cannot stand this.
- 9:43Speaker 2: They cannot even countenance the idea of a man who
- 9:48Speaker 2: is simply not interested in women because they can find
- 9:52Speaker 2: higher things to do. And this is not a modern phenomenon.
- 9:57Speaker 2: By the way, the Right Brothers were Mike tous Nicola
- 10:02Speaker 2: Tesla was a make tow all manner of men who
- 10:08Speaker 2: changed the future for the better. Men who advanced human
- 10:18Speaker 2: flourishment throughout history were technically make tous because they weren't
- 10:23Speaker 2: interested in finding wives. They were not interested in chasing
- 10:29Speaker 2: skirt or whatever.
- 10:30Speaker 1: There's good reason for that too. There are two ways,
- 10:34Speaker 1: two ways only that involvement with a woman can go.
- 10:40Speaker 1: For a man who has any kind of goals that
- 10:44Speaker 1: anyone else might call lofty until he achieved them and
- 10:48Speaker 1: then suddenly he's brilliant. And one way is she can
- 10:52Speaker 1: be a supportive wife, a person who does everything that
- 10:58Speaker 1: she can to h fulfill any request that he makes
- 11:03Speaker 1: of her for assistance or support, even if it's just
- 11:09Speaker 1: keep my house while I do this thing that everyone
- 11:13Speaker 1: else says is crazy. But if I succeed, it's going
- 11:16Speaker 1: to you know, launch humanity forward in this area that
- 11:20Speaker 1: I'm working in for you know, through hundreds of years.
- 11:26Speaker 1: And that's one way, right. The other way is by
- 11:32Speaker 1: being unsupportive she can hold him back. I think a
- 11:36Speaker 1: lot of men that have achieved greatness while simultaneously avoiding
- 11:45Speaker 1: contact with women, or at least declining to become intimate
- 11:51Speaker 1: partners with a woman, feared that second path with good reason.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Many women prefer to take that path because they are narcissistic,
- 12:02Speaker 1: and they won't be supportive of him because it's not
- 12:08Speaker 1: She won't see that it's in her interest. The ride
- 12:10Speaker 1: or die woman who will go through poverty and ridicule
- 12:15Speaker 1: in the hopes that the thing her man is working
- 12:17Speaker 1: on pans out, and the trust that he knows what
- 12:22Speaker 1: he's doing and he's right. That's a rare woman. So
- 12:27Speaker 1: it's entirely fair for men who are chasing greatness in
- 12:32Speaker 1: some way or another, whether it's for their own sake
- 12:35Speaker 1: or for humanity's sake, it's entirely fair for them to say,
- 12:40Speaker 1: you know, without a woman, I'm going to do this
- 12:42Speaker 1: without a woman. And yeah, I know there was more, Mike.
- 12:50Speaker 2: I mean, I think I basically got there. Feminists dream
- 12:57Speaker 2: of an entire pops of men who worship women but
- 13:04Speaker 2: are unable to get them. They want to believe that
- 13:10Speaker 2: the entire male populace is in cells, that they desperately
- 13:17Speaker 2: want to receive the holy touch of women, but they
- 13:22Speaker 2: cannot until they do everything that women want them to do.
- 13:27Speaker 2: And that and that's why Ross Kemp many of you
- 13:31Speaker 2: outside the outside the UK will not know who Ross
- 13:34Speaker 2: Kemp is. But Ross Kemp did a documentary. I think
- 13:37Speaker 2: it's still in the stages of editing that documentary about
- 13:40Speaker 2: in Cells because it's considered such an emergency to examine that.
- 13:45Speaker 3: Still it came.
- 13:47Speaker 4: It came out Monday some investigation. Yeah, it came out Monday.
- 13:54Speaker 4: It's on the Crime Seen Investigation channel in the UK.
- 13:58Speaker 2: Of course. Well and and and and and Ross's camp
- 14:01Speaker 2: has has come to a realization. You may have seen
- 14:05Speaker 2: the clip that's been going around on Twitter, but he
- 14:08Speaker 2: was into interviewing this guy and he asked him how
- 14:10Speaker 2: many in cel killers have existed in the world, and
- 14:16Speaker 2: it was it's between five and twelve or whatever. It is, like,
- 14:21Speaker 2: it's negligibly tiny. Hardly anyone has has committed any mass
- 14:30Speaker 2: murderers along these supposedly ideological lines. And I'm still like, hmmm,
- 14:36Speaker 2: did I mean even Elliott Rodger didn't really do it
- 14:41Speaker 2: over the ideological lines of this in cel phenomenon.
- 14:50Speaker 3: He hated They labeled him on m R at first.
- 14:55Speaker 1: Yeah, they did. They tried a M A p U A.
- 15:00Speaker 1: He hated us too, and he.
- 15:03Speaker 2: Killed and he killed more men than women.
- 15:07Speaker 3: He looked, He killed more Asian men.
- 15:11Speaker 2: He lured several of his student friends to his to
- 15:15Speaker 2: his student residents and then stabbed them to death. And
- 15:18Speaker 2: only then did he he go out and shoot up
- 15:22Speaker 2: a sorority and in which he ended up killing I
- 15:25Speaker 2: think three women and one man. He killed more men
- 15:30Speaker 2: than women, and yet to this day, the Wikipedia article
- 15:33Speaker 2: on him will call him a a femicidal something or other,
- 15:42Speaker 2: like he went he did this because he wanted to
- 15:44Speaker 2: kill women, and yet somehow he killed more men than women.
- 15:48Speaker 2: And this is a consistent theme that even when men
- 15:54Speaker 2: ostensibly hate women, they will still kill more men than women.
- 15:59Speaker 2: And yeah, that's war in a nutshell, isn't it.
- 16:04Speaker 1: So you know, not to get into a long discussion
- 16:08Speaker 1: about this, but femicide isn't a real term by the way.
- 16:14Speaker 1: Feminists made it up for a specific reason, and we
- 16:20Speaker 1: should know and we shouldn't use it for any reason,
- 16:24Speaker 1: and in fact, we should call them out on it
- 16:26Speaker 1: every time they use it, because the specific reason they
- 16:30Speaker 1: made it up homicide. It refers to a homo sapien.
- 16:34Speaker 1: The killing of a homo sapien. Homo sapien is not
- 16:37Speaker 1: just a man. It's a man or a woman or
- 16:39Speaker 1: a child. It's somebody who is nine months old or
- 16:43Speaker 1: ninety nine years old. Somebody who is nine minutes old
- 16:47Speaker 1: is homo sapien. And the only people that our laws
- 16:52Speaker 1: do not count under the term homicide are those that
- 16:58Speaker 1: have not yet been born, right, and that that might change.
- 17:03Speaker 1: They made up a term for when a murder victim
- 17:08Speaker 1: is an infant, so after you've been born, like nine
- 17:11Speaker 1: seconds after you've been born, if you're murdered, if homicide
- 17:16Speaker 1: is committed against you, they will call it infanticide in
- 17:19Speaker 1: some places, because it is considered to be a worse
- 17:23Speaker 1: crime to murder a helpless infant than an individual who
- 17:29Speaker 1: might be able to fight back. And it's fair to
- 17:32Speaker 1: say that it is particularly brutal and callous and heinous
- 17:37Speaker 1: to look at a cute little baby, a cute little
- 17:40Speaker 1: infant and decide I need to kill that. But at
- 17:46Speaker 1: the same time, a human life is a human life,
- 17:49Speaker 1: and taking a human life is always a horrible thing
- 17:55Speaker 1: to do, and there should be very limited circumstances under
- 18:00Speaker 1: which we do not consider the person a horrible, evil
- 18:05Speaker 1: person for doing it. And unfortunately, what feminists have done
- 18:10Speaker 1: there is attempt to make it seem like it is
- 18:15Speaker 1: more evil and more deserving of repercussions, and the victim
- 18:23Speaker 1: is more deserving of justice if that individual is female,
- 18:28Speaker 1: or in other words, if a man is a homicide victim.
- 18:33Speaker 1: Feminists don't think that homicide victim deserves the same sympathy
- 18:39Speaker 1: and compassion and outrage that we would exhibit if the
- 18:44Speaker 1: victim was a woman, as in my opinion, we should
- 18:50Speaker 1: be calling that out every single time we see that term,
- 18:54Speaker 1: because it is not just sexist, it is gender sidle.
- 19:01Speaker 1: In other words, feminists are arguing that it's okay to
- 19:05Speaker 1: kill men. It's okay to kill as long as the
- 19:08Speaker 1: person you're killing is not a woman, and that's bullshit.
- 19:12Speaker 1: We should be trying to minimize violence in our modern society.
- 19:17Speaker 1: Our civilization hasn't grown up yet, and instead feminists are
- 19:24Speaker 1: arguing over when it's okay. We should We should not
- 19:27Speaker 1: be arguing over when it's okay. We should be arguing
- 19:31Speaker 1: that it's not.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Incidentally, the word androcide is not in common parlance, and well,
- 19:44Speaker 2: if it was, we would find ourselves describing almost every war, yeah,
- 19:52Speaker 2: as an andracide, and that includes the most recent one,
- 19:55Speaker 2: the fucking Iranian War. Six America have been killed, and
- 20:01Speaker 2: they've they're all men.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Unsurprisingly, all the leaders were targeted were men because under
- 20:09Speaker 1: their regime, only men could be in leadership positions.
- 20:13Speaker 2: Like, no one goes into a war deciding to kill
- 20:18Speaker 2: mainly women. Yep, they literally always go into a war
- 20:23Speaker 2: deciding to kill mostly men. I mean, it's written in
- 20:25Speaker 2: all of our religious texts.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Here is that that arguing, you know, what's worse killing
- 20:35Speaker 1: killing a male or female human being is wrong. It's
- 20:40Speaker 1: it's it's it's evil to kill. It is it is
- 20:45Speaker 1: evil to kill. And the only times that it is
- 20:51Speaker 1: not intentionally evil is when it's an accident that you
- 20:56Speaker 1: couldn't foresee and take measures to avoid, or when you're
- 21:00Speaker 1: defending against an attempt at killing you. That's it. Like
- 21:06Speaker 1: you don't, I don't even like the concept of mercy killings.
- 21:11Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to it's hard to justify that,
- 21:16Speaker 1: but I mean, I know some people do. But the
- 21:19Speaker 1: the point is that is overt missonry. That the word
- 21:27Speaker 1: femicide is overt missondry, and it is gendercidle against men,
- 21:33Speaker 1: and it exists only to justify treating male victims of homicide,
- 21:42Speaker 1: any type of homicide, as less deserving of compassion and
- 21:48Speaker 1: justice than female victims, when we should not be allowing that.
- 21:53Speaker 1: We wouldn't allow it if we started using the term
- 21:58Speaker 1: and recide homicide an andracide, Well, it's worse when you
- 22:01Speaker 1: kill a man. There might even be arguments on each
- 22:05Speaker 1: side for why it's worse when you kill one sex
- 22:08Speaker 1: or the other. There might even be people that'll come
- 22:10Speaker 1: up with justifications why they think it's worse. They're all bullshit.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Every justification you can come up with.
- 22:18Speaker 3: Is bullshit.
- 22:20Speaker 1: Every human life is valuable, every single one, and we
- 22:25Speaker 1: should be avoiding distinctions like, well, this person that was
- 22:31Speaker 1: killed was female, therefore it's a big deal, or this
- 22:34Speaker 1: person that was killed was insert utilitarian reason for why
- 22:40Speaker 1: we think a man might be valuable here, and therefore
- 22:44Speaker 1: it's a bigger deal than say, if an in cell
- 22:48Speaker 1: was sacrificed. That they're all human, they're all valuable, and
- 22:55Speaker 1: it is all important to put a stop to it
- 22:59Speaker 1: is all a big deal. Every human death before that
- 23:04Speaker 1: person's time is a loss and a tragedy, even when
- 23:10Speaker 1: we've had to execute a human being for committing a
- 23:13Speaker 1: heinous crime, because we lost that person the moment they
- 23:16Speaker 1: went down that path and nobody stepped up to help
- 23:18Speaker 1: them get back on a better path, or anybody that
- 23:23Speaker 1: tried failed. Every human death before their time is a tragedy,
- 23:30Speaker 1: is a failure on the part of humanity, and the
- 23:34Speaker 1: thing we should be striving for is to get to
- 23:38Speaker 1: a point where we forget all of the words for
- 23:42Speaker 1: homicide because one hasn't happened in so long we haven't
- 23:46Speaker 1: had to talk about it. That's what we should be
- 23:49Speaker 1: trying to do, not arguing over who's more important to preserve,
- 23:54Speaker 1: but regarding the migtal thing. What I wanted to point
- 23:59Speaker 1: out and bring that up is similar right. To bring
- 24:04Speaker 1: this back full circle, Feminists are very offended that there
- 24:10Speaker 1: are men who do not make women the most important
- 24:13Speaker 1: thing in their lives, who don't pursue women, as you know,
- 24:18Speaker 1: their main reason for existing to get married and start
- 24:23Speaker 1: a family, who don't make mentoring women their primary function
- 24:29Speaker 1: at work, who don't interact with women anymore than they
- 24:33Speaker 1: have to. Feminists get very offended. Women in general get
- 24:39Speaker 1: offended about this right. They get very upset. So imagine
- 24:44Speaker 1: for a minute if something like eighty percent of the
- 24:51Speaker 1: world male population decided that fifty percent of the world
- 24:59Speaker 1: female population and was beneath their notice and shouldn't even
- 25:06Speaker 1: draw their attention for fear of being castigated for having
- 25:12Speaker 1: the audacity to do so. Imagine exactly how offended women
- 25:20Speaker 1: would be if half of the female population was unable
- 25:27Speaker 1: to find a partner because eighty percent of the male
- 25:32Speaker 1: population was arguing over the supermodels of the female population,
- 25:40Speaker 1: and the best actresses and musicians and the most popular
- 25:48Speaker 1: women in the world, the thing that makes women consider
- 25:53Speaker 1: themselves alphas, the queen bees of the world, and the
- 25:59Speaker 1: wealthiest women in the world. You think that the cries
- 26:05Speaker 1: of misogyny would drown out all other sounds upon the earth,
- 26:08Speaker 1: because I do.
- 26:12Speaker 4: But they call you a they call you a PDF.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they would call you that, the PDF, the
- 26:21Speaker 1: dreaded PDF file, depending on you know, like especially if
- 26:27Speaker 1: men were all searching for women in their twenties, which
- 26:31Speaker 1: is funny because when women do it they call it
- 26:36Speaker 1: romance tourism, right, And and women my age who are
- 26:41Speaker 1: grandmothers and you know, working as in managemental management in
- 26:47Speaker 1: some stupid company somewhere. They will go to foreign nations
- 26:54Speaker 1: and exploit the prostitution system there for men of military age,
- 27:01Speaker 1: of like entry age into the military, men who haven't
- 27:04Speaker 1: been the aults for very long, or men you know,
- 27:08Speaker 1: young younger men like they would consider men, but teenagers
- 27:13Speaker 1: that that would still be underage.
- 27:17Speaker 4: A lot of people went to the UK, go to
- 27:19Speaker 4: like the Caribbean and of a place to do that
- 27:24Speaker 4: before that, the before dementia hit. Yeah, Mom used to
- 27:31Speaker 4: do Mom used to do that a lot before the
- 27:33Speaker 4: dementia hit. So because she went back and forth to
- 27:36Speaker 4: Jamaica to see someone before the dementia hit.
- 27:41Speaker 1: A lot of women do that. They'll go to nations
- 27:45Speaker 1: that are maybe at the higher end of third world
- 27:49Speaker 1: or in the nations that can be considered second world.
- 27:54Speaker 1: They'll go to nations that are at the lower end
- 27:56Speaker 1: of first world in terms of economics, or nations that
- 28:00Speaker 1: depend heavily on tourism for like their they're staying afloat
- 28:10Speaker 1: and on you know, assistance from other countries when there's
- 28:14Speaker 1: a disaster because they never have enough, you know, to
- 28:18Speaker 1: to cover it themselves. And and they'll go and they
- 28:22Speaker 1: will target there. We've featured articles about this in the
- 28:28Speaker 1: past on HBr Talk. In fact, they'll target underage guys.
- 28:33Speaker 1: They'll target guys that are like fourteen, fifteen, sixteen. In
- 28:39Speaker 1: the United States, I think the lowest age of consent
- 28:45Speaker 1: in any state in the United States is sixteen. And
- 28:48Speaker 1: that's the age it's traditionally it's the age when you
- 28:51Speaker 1: used to be able to get your driver's license, and
- 28:53Speaker 1: you used to be When I was in school, you
- 28:55Speaker 1: take Driver's ED. You get take a driver's test until
- 28:59Speaker 1: you pass, and there were limitations on how often you
- 29:04Speaker 1: could take it, but and that that would make you
- 29:08Speaker 1: take time to study and practice if you were unable
- 29:12Speaker 1: to pass the driver's test the first time around. But
- 29:17Speaker 1: in any case, and then it was pretty common by
- 29:20Speaker 1: the way, like I took calculus, and I did find
- 29:24Speaker 1: in calculus, but the the spatial relations part of the
- 29:31Speaker 1: driver's test, I thought I could practice in one car
- 29:34Speaker 1: and then take the test in a different one, and
- 29:37Speaker 1: it didn't work, and so I failed that the first
- 29:39Speaker 1: time around. I hit the cones. But in any case,
- 29:44Speaker 1: you could get that. You could do that at the
- 29:46Speaker 1: age of sixteen and then drive without an adult in
- 29:51Speaker 1: the car. You didn't have to have an adult in
- 29:53Speaker 1: the car. Today you can start learning to drive with
- 29:59Speaker 1: an adult in the car, I think at the age
- 30:00Speaker 1: of fifteen, but I think you have to have an
- 30:02Speaker 1: adult in the car until the age of eighteen. My
- 30:06Speaker 1: I don't know for sure, because my daughters lived with
- 30:09Speaker 1: their biological mom and their stepfather when they when they
- 30:12Speaker 1: went through all that, my son chose to not drive
- 30:17Speaker 1: until he was older because we lived in an area
- 30:20Speaker 1: where you could walk everywhere and just get what you
- 30:25Speaker 1: wanted by walking to the store and so on, and
- 30:28Speaker 1: didn't see any point in taking the risk and so,
- 30:32Speaker 1: which I thought was a pretty mature decision, and it
- 30:36Speaker 1: also saved us a lot on insurance. But in any case,
- 30:42Speaker 1: that was that was the you know, the youngest age
- 30:44Speaker 1: that I've seen in any state. There was a state
- 30:48Speaker 1: for a while, I want to say Kentucky, but I'm
- 30:51Speaker 1: not sure that allowed fifteen year olds to consent. But
- 30:57Speaker 1: I think in I think in most states it's sixteen.
- 31:05Speaker 1: I think my battery might be dying in my That's
- 31:08Speaker 1: gonna drive me nuts. I just heard my smoke alarm chirp.
- 31:15Speaker 1: So just so you guys know, I can't you.
- 31:20Speaker 3: Show you're not African American.
- 31:21Speaker 1: No, I definitely hear it. I know it. That is
- 31:24Speaker 1: the most annoying sound in the world. And just this
- 31:29Speaker 1: is totally off topic, but where at one time where
- 31:33Speaker 1: I work, it's the time of year when it does
- 31:35Speaker 1: this to me. And and the worst part is it's
- 31:40Speaker 1: it's the type that you have to have somebody come
- 31:43Speaker 1: in and change the battery, because if you try to
- 31:46Speaker 1: change the battery, it sets off the fire alarm, so
- 31:49Speaker 1: I can't do anything about it. I couldn't even pause
- 31:51Speaker 1: the show and do anything about it. So if you
- 31:53Speaker 1: hear it, if it chirps again, just be aware. I
- 31:58Speaker 1: can hear that. I have noise canceling headphones on and
- 32:02Speaker 1: I can still hear that. But and I had the
- 32:08Speaker 1: same problem at one of the one of the homes
- 32:10Speaker 1: I work at, and I work on the night shift,
- 32:12Speaker 1: so if it starts in the middle of the night,
- 32:15Speaker 1: that you can't call maintenance and have them come in
- 32:17Speaker 1: on an emergency and change that. But so so you
- 32:22Speaker 1: got like eight hours of that thing going off every
- 32:27Speaker 1: thirty seconds, and by the end of the shift, my
- 32:31Speaker 1: hair's on the floor. I just cannot stand noises like that.
- 32:37Speaker 1: But in any case, like completely derailed me that sound.
- 32:45Speaker 1: Part of the reason I'm telling you this is because
- 32:47Speaker 1: I immediately forgot what I was talking about when I heard
- 32:49Speaker 1: that beep.
- 32:51Speaker 4: And but it's going to be the article.
- 32:55Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's it's it's time to get into the article.
- 32:59Speaker 1: But but and now everybody's wondering why the fuck it
- 33:02Speaker 1: took fifty years for the medical community to diagnose me
- 33:05Speaker 1: as autistic. That kind of noise, like just can completely
- 33:10Speaker 1: I completely lose everything. I hate loud beeps and loud whistling, squeech,
- 33:16Speaker 1: screeching noises, sirens, all that kind of stuff, which is
- 33:21Speaker 1: funny because I actually love ambulances and fire trucks and
- 33:26Speaker 1: I just don't like the noises they make.
- 33:29Speaker 3: So.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Oh, we were talking about the sexu tourism and the
- 33:33Speaker 1: age and consent. So in the US, it is perfectly
- 33:36Speaker 1: normal for an adult to be considered to have something
- 33:42Speaker 1: profoundly wrong with them if they want to be with
- 33:45Speaker 1: somebody significantly younger than them, that is under the age
- 33:49Speaker 1: of eighteen. Like, if you see a nineteen year old
- 33:53Speaker 1: and a seventeen year old together, that's pretty normal, right,
- 33:55Speaker 1: But if you see a thirty nine year old and
- 33:59Speaker 1: a seventeen year old, people are going to point and talk,
- 34:02Speaker 1: and in my opinion, they should. Seventeen isn't very very
- 34:06Speaker 1: mature in all honesty, but women expect it to be tolerated.
- 34:13Speaker 1: If you see a thirty nine year old and a
- 34:16Speaker 1: twenty one year old where the thirty nine year old
- 34:19Speaker 1: is female and twenty one year old is male, on
- 34:22Speaker 1: the other hand, they will call you a pedo. Yeah,
- 34:27Speaker 1: unless it's their son.
- 34:28Speaker 3: Right.
- 34:29Speaker 1: They will call you a pedo if you, as a
- 34:33Speaker 1: thirty nine year old are with a thirty or a
- 34:35Speaker 1: twenty one year old woman, And that's that's really it's
- 34:44Speaker 1: not just sexist, it's a Again, it's very hateful either
- 34:48Speaker 1: either we're adults when we're adults or or not. And
- 34:53Speaker 1: you know that to that end, I would say it
- 34:56Speaker 1: shouldn't matter male or female. You know, anybody that is
- 35:02Speaker 1: looking for somebody that's a teenager when they're that old
- 35:06Speaker 1: has some questions to answer. And it's not because necessarily
- 35:13Speaker 1: it's always it should always be considered predatory. But if
- 35:18Speaker 1: that individual isn't predatory, they're profoundly immature and should be
- 35:25Speaker 1: not trusted for that reason. Personally, when I was that age,
- 35:34Speaker 1: I'm trying to think thirty nine was a little bit ago.
- 35:37Speaker 1: I really didn't even like the idea of going below
- 35:44Speaker 1: thirty like I would have. I had to have somebody
- 35:51Speaker 1: convinced me that it was safe and okay to talk,
- 35:58Speaker 1: you know, even just about just about stuff, not like
- 36:03Speaker 1: actually having a romantic relationship, because by that time that
- 36:08Speaker 1: wasn't an interest. But yeah, it's just like you know, yeah,
- 36:15Speaker 1: at twenty five, year old enough to for me to
- 36:18Speaker 1: be blunt and talking about the risks of dealing with
- 36:22Speaker 1: this circumstance you're in. But you still look like a
- 36:27Speaker 1: kid to me. And now my youngest is older than that,
- 36:33Speaker 1: So now like, if you're under thirty, you really do
- 36:38Speaker 1: look like a kid to me. My youngest isn't over thirty,
- 36:40Speaker 1: but he's the same age I was when I gave
- 36:42Speaker 1: birth to him, and my two older kids are over thirty.
- 36:49Speaker 1: And it's just it looks very different from this angle
- 36:54Speaker 1: than it did when I was that age. And if
- 36:58Speaker 1: you get to my age, and it does, and there
- 37:02Speaker 1: you haven't done something in terms of your personal growth
- 37:07Speaker 1: that you should have done by this point. That's at
- 37:12Speaker 1: the very least, you haven't done something that you should
- 37:15Speaker 1: have done by this point.
- 37:18Speaker 2: So, but any you may remember when you were eight
- 37:21Speaker 2: years old, ten year olds looked like adults when you
- 37:25Speaker 2: look back on your memory of being in school, like
- 37:28Speaker 2: the kids who are two years older than you looked
- 37:31Speaker 2: like Even the residual memories you have of the kids
- 37:36Speaker 2: who are two years older than you, they look like adults.
- 37:41Speaker 2: The memory you have of them were off. They were
- 37:44Speaker 2: basically adults, even though in reality they were basically children.
- 37:51Speaker 2: And it makes sense because when you're a child, like
- 37:53Speaker 2: a year is a tenth of your life, yep. But
- 37:57Speaker 2: when you're fifty, a year is is a fiftieth of
- 38:01Speaker 2: your life, and and so it grows like that. The
- 38:06Speaker 2: older you get, the less important these these age differences.
- 38:11Speaker 1: Ah, well, there's there's other things too. When my generation
- 38:21Speaker 1: was ten years old, it was normal for me to
- 38:27Speaker 1: be allowed to babysit my eight year old brother for
- 38:31Speaker 1: a couple of hours when my parents were out of
- 38:34Speaker 1: the house. Dad might be teaching and mom might be
- 38:38Speaker 1: at the store, and and we would know where mom was,
- 38:44Speaker 1: We would know where Dad was. We had our emergency
- 38:46Speaker 1: phone numbers. We knew which neighbors to go go call
- 38:51Speaker 1: for help if there was a problem. We knew what
- 38:54Speaker 1: to do if the house caught fire, right and and
- 38:57Speaker 1: how to get out and be safe, and everything we knew,
- 38:59Speaker 1: we what we weren't allowed to touch. My parents could
- 39:03Speaker 1: keep a shotgun in the closet that we knew was
- 39:07Speaker 1: in there, not under lock and key, and know that
- 39:11Speaker 1: we would not touch it. Like and won't tell the
- 39:16Speaker 1: story of the fart in the bedroom. But we went
- 39:18Speaker 1: looking for a We searched their room one time for
- 39:23Speaker 1: something else that doesn't doesn't exist, and you know, found
- 39:30Speaker 1: it and didn't touch it because we knew, you know,
- 39:34Speaker 1: they would they would kick our asses if if we
- 39:37Speaker 1: if we touched it. We knew we weren't allowed to
- 39:40Speaker 1: touch that, right. But by the time millennial generation was
- 39:47Speaker 1: ten years old, at least half of that stuff was
- 39:51Speaker 1: no longer true. It was either you had to have
- 39:55Speaker 1: a gun under lock and key, right, or you you
- 40:00Speaker 1: couldn't leave two kids that age. Yeah, that was definitely
- 40:03Speaker 1: a fucking ah. I just heard it again. I don't
- 40:08Speaker 1: know it's it's it's upstairs, so I don't know if
- 40:10Speaker 1: you guys can hear it, but it's gonna drive me nuts.
- 40:12Speaker 1: At least it's not every dingy.
- 40:14Speaker 2: It was overshadowed by a discord notification noise.
- 40:20Speaker 1: Oh yeah, see, I'm not getting discord notifications noises because
- 40:26Speaker 1: I turned all of those off. I couldn't use discord
- 40:29Speaker 1: if it was making those noises at me all the time.
- 40:32Speaker 1: But yeah, millennial ten year olds, very few of them
- 40:37Speaker 1: ever babysat a younger sibling at that age. It was
- 40:40Speaker 1: a few years later when they might be allowed to
- 40:43Speaker 1: be home alone for you know, half an hour with
- 40:47Speaker 1: a younger sibling. By the time I was twelve, I
- 40:53Speaker 1: made my first I cooked my first full meal for
- 40:57Speaker 1: the whole family at the age of twelve. Like I
- 41:00Speaker 1: had been learning, I asked Mom for a easy bake
- 41:03Speaker 1: oven if they I don't know they still make those,
- 41:06Speaker 1: but essentially it's cooking with a light bulb. It's literally
- 41:08Speaker 1: cooking with a light bulb in a box. And I
- 41:12Speaker 1: asked for one, and Mom's like, uh, uh no, you
- 41:14Speaker 1: you don't. You don't need that. We're going to learn
- 41:16Speaker 1: to use the real oven.
- 41:17Speaker 4: Uh.
- 41:18Speaker 1: When I was like nine or ten years old, and
- 41:20Speaker 1: uh because one of my friends had one, and uh.
- 41:25Speaker 1: By by twelve, I cooked a pot roast, you know,
- 41:29Speaker 1: with with potatoes and carrots and broth and all the amenities.
- 41:35Speaker 1: And then also some biscuits, so I knew how to
- 41:39Speaker 1: make biscuits. Like we had all the different you know,
- 41:42Speaker 1: we had sides, we had a dessert that I made
- 41:46Speaker 1: and and everything. And I still remember that because my uh.
- 41:49Speaker 1: We sat down at the table and started dinner and
- 41:54Speaker 1: Dad complimented Mom on the meal, which he did almost
- 41:58Speaker 1: every single time in immediately and did every single time
- 42:02Speaker 1: at some point in the meal, but sat down first
- 42:06Speaker 1: bite complimented it, and Mom's like, well, Hannah cooked it,
- 42:11Speaker 1: and you know, he said, oh, you did a good
- 42:14Speaker 1: job on the roadt So she goes, he cooked the
- 42:15Speaker 1: whole meal. Here she cooked the whole meal. And that
- 42:18Speaker 1: was That was one of my proudest moments as a kid.
- 42:21Speaker 3: Right.
- 42:21Speaker 1: But today, with with gen Z and jen Alpha, a
- 42:26Speaker 1: lot of them were not even allowed near the stove
- 42:30Speaker 1: or the oven until they were in their teenage years
- 42:33Speaker 1: because it's hot and it can burn you. And so
- 42:36Speaker 1: we've gotten well more protective generationally. By the time my
- 42:45Speaker 1: mom was fourteen, she was actually working in a she's
- 42:52Speaker 1: working in a hospital for disabled kids as they cook,
- 42:59Speaker 1: and I did a lot of other things because it
- 43:01Speaker 1: was just starting up at that point. It was a
- 43:05Speaker 1: new thing in you know, I don't I don't think
- 43:10Speaker 1: I had a paying job until I was fifteen, and
- 43:14Speaker 1: I didn't work full time until I was eighteen, so
- 43:19Speaker 1: things are very different, right. I did have a paying job.
- 43:23Speaker 1: I had a paying job at eleven, but I was
- 43:24Speaker 1: working for my parents. A lot of the boys in
- 43:27Speaker 1: the neighborhood. I had paper routes at the age of ten,
- 43:30Speaker 1: not very many kids today even can do that, because
- 43:34Speaker 1: you'd have to have mom or dad drive you around.
- 43:37Speaker 1: So it's not just it's not just weird because of
- 43:41Speaker 1: the age difference. It's also weird because of the general
- 43:45Speaker 1: generational difference in expectations of personal accountability for one's own
- 43:54Speaker 1: safety versus the older generation being protective of the younger generation.
- 44:00Speaker 1: I think that makes a big difference to most mature
- 44:05Speaker 1: adults when they're around people that are the age of
- 44:10Speaker 1: their younger siblings or their children, right that you're a
- 44:15Speaker 1: little more protective. But regarding this, the point I wanted
- 44:23Speaker 1: to make with the original long Talk was the fact
- 44:26Speaker 1: that women's attitude. If men had the same attitude toward
- 44:31Speaker 1: women that women have toward men, that creates the Inceell
- 44:38Speaker 1: phenomenon and the Migtau phenomenon. Women would play victim of that.
- 44:45Speaker 1: They would scream from the hills misogyny. They would scream
- 44:50Speaker 1: from the hills patriarchy. We'd be hearing that men everywhere,
- 44:56Speaker 1: all men hate women, and that women are the most oppressed.
- 45:01Speaker 1: And they basically say the same things they say now, uh,
- 45:05Speaker 1: but louder, longer, and more screechy. More likely than not.
- 45:13Speaker 2: They wouldn't just complain about it, they'd ban it. Like
- 45:18Speaker 2: I said, Like I said in my last video, if
- 45:20Speaker 2: women had to dress like penguins all the fucking time,
- 45:23Speaker 2: they screamed, this is the handmaid's tail and turn it
- 45:25Speaker 2: into a crime.
- 45:27Speaker 1: Yep, if they had dressed like men, If women had
- 45:32Speaker 1: to dress the way men have to dress all the time,
- 45:37Speaker 1: you know, as opposed to like women like me wearing
- 45:42Speaker 1: cargo pants because pockets, not because I have to wear
- 45:47Speaker 1: this for work, you know which for so it's a
- 45:50Speaker 1: privilege basically that I can dress in some way like
- 45:54Speaker 1: a man. I don't have to wear a dress. I
- 45:55Speaker 1: don't have the strict limitations that a man has. Women
- 45:58Speaker 1: would never put up with that. But when men take
- 46:06Speaker 1: measures to protect themselves or join a forum and talk
- 46:09Speaker 1: about how hard it is to live with being so
- 46:15Speaker 1: isolated or rejected or having a low self esteem or
- 46:21Speaker 1: anything like that, women attack that as well. They're not
- 46:26Speaker 1: even allowed to have the same level of complaints that
- 46:29Speaker 1: women would have over being in their situation. Before we
- 46:34Speaker 1: go on, we got three super chows. I'm going to
- 46:37Speaker 1: read because I don't want them to pile up, and
- 46:40Speaker 1: they're already starting to pile up. One of them is
- 46:42Speaker 1: from yesterday, and I believe it is a response to
- 46:44Speaker 1: the show that was playing yesterday. Zapier gave us five
- 46:49Speaker 1: dollars and said, the UK more like the you gay,
- 46:52Speaker 1: he he he, some honey money for the badgers. I
- 46:56Speaker 1: always like a good pun, but there we go. Art
- 47:03Speaker 1: Force gave us fifty dollars. Thank you, Art Force and
- 47:05Speaker 1: said HBr talk three ninety two, badgering the honey. And
- 47:09Speaker 1: Meredith g gave us five dollars and said, HBr talk
- 47:12Speaker 1: three ninety two, honey of the badgers. Why is it
- 47:15Speaker 1: the chirps always happen at the most inconvenient times, like
- 47:19Speaker 1: three am in the morning, which it's it's because you
- 47:25Speaker 1: know it's always inconvenient. It is always inconvenient for something
- 47:29Speaker 1: to be making an annoying noise. And I know that
- 47:32Speaker 1: they make that noise deliberately annoying so that you won't
- 47:35Speaker 1: ignore it and fail to protect your house from a fire.
- 47:40Speaker 1: But it's still annoying.
- 47:43Speaker 2: To be fair, To be fair, I am not black,
- 47:47Speaker 2: and I went ahead and put up with that shit
- 47:50Speaker 2: for like a couple of days once. In my defense,
- 47:53Speaker 2: I was constantly fucked up on drugs at the time,
- 47:56Speaker 2: and that's why I was able to ignore it.
- 47:59Speaker 1: There we go, There we go. So we had just
- 48:04Speaker 1: read that paragraph in the bit about Aristoteles and and so,
- 48:14Speaker 1: and we will go on. Alex goes on to say, besides,
- 48:18Speaker 1: a lot of the men weren't in it for the
- 48:20Speaker 1: long haul. The real conviction and self esteem needed to
- 48:23Speaker 1: maintain a strike was lacking. Most men view themselves as
- 48:26Speaker 1: subhuman as well. A lot of men are self self loathing.
- 48:30Speaker 1: And when I read that, the first thing I thought was, well,
- 48:32Speaker 1: who taught them to think of themselves that way?
- 48:36Speaker 3: Right?
- 48:37Speaker 4: And then?
- 48:37Speaker 1: And the truth is it's both gender of parent. What
- 48:42Speaker 1: do you what do you start hearing when you've got
- 48:45Speaker 1: a sister? Uh, From the time you're a little kid,
- 48:50Speaker 1: and every place you go, everything you do, anytime, there's
- 48:53Speaker 1: a thing being handed out or a benefit to be had.
- 48:59Speaker 1: Every I who grows up, at least in Western society,
- 49:04Speaker 1: here's ladies first, Like, you know, sorry, she's she's five,
- 49:12Speaker 1: she's not old enough to be a lady. Ladies first,
- 49:17Speaker 1: let her go sit ride in the front seat of
- 49:19Speaker 1: the car. Ladies first, not a five year old, but well,
- 49:22Speaker 1: back when I was a kid, we could, but uh,
- 49:25Speaker 1: you know, give her the cookie first. Ladies first, there's
- 49:29Speaker 1: a fire. Drill ladies first, don't even but uh yeah,
- 49:36Speaker 1: you know, maybe they're so thick because they're told they're worthless.
- 49:40Speaker 3: Yeah, pick up your chocolate milk first.
- 49:43Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 49:45Speaker 4: You have to give up your ch You have to
- 49:48Speaker 4: give up your chocolate milk first for the lady.
- 49:50Speaker 3: Oh.
- 49:50Speaker 2: Yes, yes.
- 49:53Speaker 1: In in elementary school, when we used to get milk
- 49:57Speaker 1: in the classroom, that was that was a thing. If
- 50:00Speaker 1: they didn't have enough chocolate milk. It was always the
- 50:03Speaker 1: boys that were getting asked, will you drink white milk
- 50:06Speaker 1: today instead? When it's I always said milk.
- 50:15Speaker 3: I always said no, Yeah.
- 50:17Speaker 1: Well that's fair, that's fair.
- 50:19Speaker 3: Uh.
- 50:20Speaker 1: And you know, for me as a kid, I noticed
- 50:22Speaker 1: that simply because I always thought, well, why aren't they
- 50:25Speaker 1: asking me, I'll drink it. It's just milk. I was
- 50:30Speaker 1: that kid that my parents had to have enough milk
- 50:33Speaker 1: for me to drink about a gallon a day from
- 50:35Speaker 1: the time I was a little kid till I moved
- 50:39Speaker 1: out to go to college. Because that was probably my
- 50:46Speaker 1: favorite thing in the whole world to drink. I didn't
- 50:48Speaker 1: have to put anything in it. It was good as it was,
- 50:51Speaker 1: but but yeah, the boys, the boys were put in
- 50:55Speaker 1: that position. And even even I've noticed it in daily
- 51:00Speaker 1: life at other times. Right last time, I was on
- 51:07Speaker 1: an airplane where they started asking if anybody would be
- 51:12Speaker 1: volunteering to bump to another flight, and they'll they'll give
- 51:18Speaker 1: you a credit for a certain amount, and you know,
- 51:22Speaker 1: they're looking around to see if anybody will take the
- 51:24Speaker 1: money and they don't have to make somebody get off
- 51:27Speaker 1: the plane. And you know, before I realized what they
- 51:32Speaker 1: were talking about, she she starts looking and I can
- 51:35Speaker 1: see her making eye contact with men on the plane, like,
- 51:41Speaker 1: you know, would you do it? Would you do it?
- 51:43Speaker 1: And then before anybody really got a chance to volunteer,
- 51:48Speaker 1: like she didn't even wait long enough for people to process, Oh,
- 51:52Speaker 1: seven hundred dollars would be nice, I will bump to
- 51:55Speaker 1: a later flight. Sure, she just started, you know, all right,
- 51:59Speaker 1: well you are the passengers that have to get off
- 52:01Speaker 1: if nobody volunteers, and and started taking people off and uh,
- 52:08Speaker 1: and that was that, Like she took three people and
- 52:13Speaker 1: it was about that time that you know, the one
- 52:17Speaker 1: of the guys was like, oh, go I'll go. But
- 52:20Speaker 1: you know, because he wanted the seven hundred dollars, but
- 52:22Speaker 1: it was by that time she already had them count
- 52:27Speaker 1: going and it was too late. But she really did
- 52:32Speaker 1: start looking at you know, the men looked right over
- 52:36Speaker 1: my head, at the guy behind me in fact, and
- 52:40Speaker 1: you know, kind of leaned around, and you know, anybody, anybody,
- 52:45Speaker 1: as if women don't can't volunteer for stuff like that.
- 52:50Speaker 1: And if i'd have, if i'd have had a minute
- 52:52Speaker 1: to think about it, that would have been a good,
- 52:55Speaker 1: good way to get seven hundred bucks. But in any case,
- 53:00Speaker 1: they do that if there's a disaster and somebody has
- 53:05Speaker 1: to risk their lives to get somebody out of a
- 53:08Speaker 1: bad situation. The people that are first sent in if
- 53:15Speaker 1: they haven't volunteered, in which some usually do, are men.
- 53:20Speaker 1: And men are so humble about the value of their
- 53:24Speaker 1: lives that you can find videos on YouTube of them
- 53:29Speaker 1: risking their lives to rescue animals from floodwaters, pets from floodwaters.
- 53:37Speaker 1: A guy will risk his life to preserve the life
- 53:41Speaker 1: of a dog or a cat that isn't even his pet.
- 53:47Speaker 1: Guys will risk their lives on the highway where there's
- 53:52Speaker 1: traffic all around them and some animal is pinned up
- 53:55Speaker 1: against the up against the median, like the divider, because
- 54:02Speaker 1: the traffic is moving too fast and they're afraid to move.
- 54:05Speaker 1: And I've seen men risk their lives, you know, just
- 54:10Speaker 1: to make someone comfortable saving themselves where you know, if
- 54:17Speaker 1: you if I can do it, you can do it.
- 54:21Speaker 1: First time I saw a guy be so humble about
- 54:25Speaker 1: the value of his life that he risked it when
- 54:29Speaker 1: that was my age, that he risked it over and
- 54:32Speaker 1: over again. Was a young man in my high school
- 54:36Speaker 1: that there was a fire in his neighborhood and he
- 54:40Speaker 1: rescued like five kids from a burning house where he
- 54:44Speaker 1: just went inside the inside the house with the flames
- 54:47Speaker 1: all around him, over and over again and pulled them
- 54:49Speaker 1: all out. And he was lucky. Nothing bad happened to him,
- 54:54Speaker 1: like he had He got sick from smoke inhalation, but
- 54:59Speaker 1: not like go to the hospital and be admitted sick.
- 55:03Speaker 1: It bothered him for a while, but there were parts
- 55:07Speaker 1: of that house that collapsed, so it could have been
- 55:13Speaker 1: significantly worse. Like I don't know how many of you
- 55:16Speaker 1: have read or seen The Outsiders, but how one of
- 55:20Speaker 1: the main characters dies They went into rescue kids from
- 55:26Speaker 1: a burning house and part of it collapsed on him. So, yeah,
- 55:32Speaker 1: most men view themselves as Maybe most men don't view
- 55:35Speaker 1: themselves as subhuman, but they do view others. They do
- 55:42Speaker 1: value others more than they value themselves, at least to
- 55:46Speaker 1: the degree that they are humble about the value of
- 55:49Speaker 1: their lives and are willing to risk their lives. Even
- 55:55Speaker 1: boys are willing to risk their lives to protect other
- 55:59Speaker 1: people that they care about, and many of them that
- 56:04Speaker 1: qualifier that they care about goes well beyond the people
- 56:08Speaker 1: that they know and includes living things that are not people.
- 56:16Speaker 1: So she asks him if his views make him on
- 56:19Speaker 1: women make him unhappy, and he says, it can be hard.
- 56:22Speaker 1: Maybe I'm a freak, he says, Maybe it is natural
- 56:25Speaker 1: for me to tune this abuse out. I don't know.
- 56:27Speaker 1: It gets me fucking angry, And again questions about this right.
- 56:36Speaker 1: Imagine judging a feminist for being angry about the history
- 56:43Speaker 1: that they are told is true. What do you think
- 56:50Speaker 1: they would say? Do you think they would be like, oh,
- 56:53Speaker 1: you know, that's fair. I shouldn't be angry about this.
- 56:55Speaker 1: It's not happening to me and the circumstances were not
- 57:00Speaker 1: as my ideology describes. Or do you think she would
- 57:03Speaker 1: call you a misogynist. Second one, yeah, I do too,
- 57:10Speaker 1: I think because I've been called a misogynist for that.
- 57:14Speaker 1: And Eric offers the true believer. He analyzes permanent misfits
- 57:18Speaker 1: like Alex, who, because of some personal defect, feel unfulfilled
- 57:22Speaker 1: in life. I noticed she just called she called him defective.
- 57:30Speaker 1: She stated that he has a personal defect, but she
- 57:33Speaker 1: hasn't actually described.
- 57:35Speaker 3: What she called him regarded.
- 57:39Speaker 1: Yeah that, Yeah, she did do that. That's true. Whatever
- 57:45Speaker 1: they undertake becomes a passionate pursuit, but they never arrive,
- 57:50Speaker 1: never pause, offer rights. Instead, they can only find their
- 57:53Speaker 1: salvation in the compact collectivity of a mass movement. By
- 58:00Speaker 1: renouncing individual will, judgment, and ambition, and dedicating all their
- 58:04Speaker 1: powers to the service of an eternal cause, they are
- 58:09Speaker 1: at last lifted off the endless treadmill. Alex has more
- 58:15Speaker 1: zeal than anyone I've ever met, and he resents anyone
- 58:18Speaker 1: with less than a total commitment to his eternal cause.
- 58:24Speaker 1: So I know a lot of people that are involved
- 58:28Speaker 1: in various causes from my earliest cause, and I guess
- 58:37Speaker 1: you could say my eternal cause is the pro life movement.
- 58:41Speaker 1: I want to see not just abortion reduced, to zero,
- 58:50Speaker 1: but also suicide, war and the death penalty. I want
- 58:57Speaker 1: to see human life valuevalued to the degree that we
- 59:01Speaker 1: do everything we humanly can to prevent untimely death. But
- 59:10Speaker 1: and so my first one of my first bets of
- 59:12Speaker 1: activism was involved with the pro life movement. But this
- 59:18Speaker 1: the compact collectivity of a mass movement renouncing individual will,
- 59:23Speaker 1: judgment and ambition and dedicating all their powers to service
- 59:28Speaker 1: of an eternal cause. That's bullshit, right, being dedicated to
- 59:34Speaker 1: an outcome that you have assigned merit, you know, like
- 59:40Speaker 1: I have assigned valuing and preserving human life to be
- 59:46Speaker 1: to have merit as an outcome. I don't think that
- 59:50Speaker 1: that takes away free will. That is a judgment in
- 59:54Speaker 1: and of itself. I've judged humanity's attitude towards human life
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: to be way too blase, a like, we accept untimely
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: death way too easily, and as a result, we have
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: it happen way too often. But that doesn't necessarily mean
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: that somebody else is telling me what to think, or
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: that I am not making judgment calls in regard to
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: what is right and wrong and how how it should
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: be approached.
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: For instance, you look at abortion laws, and I look
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: at the history of women's responses to abortion laws, and
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: and I don't think that the most effective way to
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: end the practice of using abortion as a means of
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: getting out of pregnancy that it doesn't threaten to kill
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: the woman. I don't. I don't think the law is
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: the most effective means of changing that. Until we change
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: the attitudes of women, they'll do the same thing they
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: did before, which is create an underground network, a black
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: market for abortion. They will even risk their lives to
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: abort pregnancies that are progressing in a healthy manner, that
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: are safe. And so obviously the problem isn't the law.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: The problem is the attitude of women, and that's what
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: needs to be addressed. When people talk about making law
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: the way that they address the problem, I feel like
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: they're going down the wrong path, and that that's not
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: having someone else tell me that's that's looking at the
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: other and assessing it and drawing a conclusion. I don't
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: think that in cells are any different. I don't think
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: people are telling them what to think. I think they
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: are looking at the evidence, assessing it, drawing conclusions, and
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: acting on those conclusions. I know much about Alex Alex courses.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: Some individual that I've never met, but I would bet
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: you if you sat and talked to him for an
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: hour and you'd find that he's a totally different person
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: than the person that has been presented in this article.
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: She goes on men who are drawn into hating and
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: avoiding women are often born outsiders. A twenty twenty study
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: by the Commission for Countering Extremism I'm assuming that's a
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: UK thing found that of in cells met the clinical
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: requirements for being referred for an autism assignment, suggesting a
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: much higher rate of autism than in the general population.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: I don't know she realizes what she just said here.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: You can imagine that if you're a young man with autism,
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: you're crying out for a rule book about dating, says
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: well William Costello, and academic at the University of Texas
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: who specializes in mating psychology. Dating has got to be
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: more difficult since it's moved online. He adds, it's all
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: pressure to do it on your own. But the way
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: that she words this, men who are drawn into hating
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: and avoiding women are often born outsiders. And then she
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: goes on to say that thirty percent of the cells
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: met the clinical requirements for being referred to for an
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: autism assessment. So, without understanding or knowing anything about autism,
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: she just assigned all autistic people the classification of being
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: born outsiders. Now, obviously there are psychological differences, misunderstandings that
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: happened between autistic people and neurotypical people, communication differences, and
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: so on, but that doesn't mean that you're born and
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: to be an outsider. Being born different doesn't mean that
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: you have to be an outsider, that you have to
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: that other people have to socially reject you. Most of
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: the problems in my inability to socialize with other people
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: were at my end growing up. The rest of my
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: classmates tried their damnedest to include me in things. I
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: just didn't always get it. Most of the time I
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: didn't get it, And when I thought I got it,
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: I didn't get it. And then there were times where
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: I thought I was being rejected when I wasn't being
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: rejected right, And that's I'm very high functioning. I didn't
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: get diagnosed until I was in my fifties, just just
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, actually last year actually, so
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: you know, I went through all of my adolescents all
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: of my university days, all most of my various jobs,
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: no employer, no coworker, knew, no accommodations from anyone, Right,
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: it's not It shouldn't be the default setting in society
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: that just because a dude is autistic he gets treated differently.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: Just because a dude is autistic doesn't mean that people
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: should suddenly exclude him from society. So this born outsider thing,
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: it's really really ablest. If we can have a social
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: environment in which a person who is high functioning an
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: autistic that is female can find more acceptance than she
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: was looking for, we should really be able to do
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: the same thing for boys. We really should be able
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: to do the same thing for men.
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: F Y, I I'm not autistic or d D. I don't.
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: I don't have any medical excuse for being as socially
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: awkward as I am, but I you know, I was,
- 1:07:17Speaker 2: let's just say, reject it in my school days, and
- 1:07:22Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure it was just because I kind of
- 1:07:25Speaker 2: just fucking suck. But it's okay to just kind of
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: just fucking suck if you're a male, but you'll you'll
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: still get the same treatment that the average autistic or
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: edded person gets. With or without a diagnosis, because if
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: you're male and you're a bit weird, then you'll get
- 1:07:49Speaker 2: that kind of treatment d s M or no d
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: S even if even if there's nothing in the DSM
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: that can describe your condition, you might just you might
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: just be a normal male who has no medical excuse,
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: uh for just sucking like you'll you'll you'll get that
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: kind of treatment and maybe you deserve it. Maybe maybe
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: some will say that you deserve it because some people
- 1:08:23Speaker 2: are just fucking weird and maybe weird people should be
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: treated like they're weird. Okay, yeah, fair enough. But point
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: being when when women are just weird, they can they
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: can generally find people who sympathize with them. And maybe
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: that's because we live in a society. We live in
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: a society, uh where women will be forgiven for their weirdness,
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: even in the event that they're just weird.
- 1:08:59Speaker 3: But to.
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: Men, and indeed boys generally aren't. You can't even be
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: a little bit weird or you'll be I don't know
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: how to describe this without it sounding like victim mentality,
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: but yeah, no, we the society in which we live
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: will forgive women for all manner of weirdness in all
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: manner of socio political directions.
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: But our society, because of our gender attitudes, does a really,
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: really lousy job of sorting out the difference between when
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: weird is a good thing, when it's just not a problem,
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: in when it's a red flag like that, because there's
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: there are different types of weird, and unfortunately we miss
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: the red flags when those are present in females, and
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: we often assign red flag status to it when it's
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: harmless or beneficial if the weird person is male.
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saying weird as just to mean a little
- 1:10:13Speaker 2: bit different, and people often misinterpret what I'm saying, Like
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: when I say weird, they go, no, you're not weird,
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: because they think I'm saying weird as though it has
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: negative connotations. It doesn't. Some people are just a bit weird,
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: and that's like I say, it's not a medical condition,
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: and it's nothing, it's something particularly bad. Some people are
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: just different. There's always going to be a minority of
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: people who are just a bit different, people who just
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: can't quite or don't quite go along with the consensus.
- 1:11:01Speaker 2: And that's fine. That should have always been fine. And
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: I don't say this in a fucking liberal progressive way.
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: I say this in a sensible centrist way. Quite a
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: lot of kids, and indeed adults are just a bit different, yep.
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: And and it's good that we accept women and girls
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: who are just a bit different, but that that excuse
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: is not extended to men and boys who are just
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: a bit different. They they are painted with some kind
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: of black paint, no matter what kind of weirdness it is,
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: no matter what kind of difference it is. Yeah, no,
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: we can all be weird, but it would be nice
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: if general weirdness was accept it and in men and
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: women alike, and then boys and girls alike. It's just
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: that it's kind of not quite accepted when men and
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: boys do it.
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of difference in his are a lot
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: of reasons in history to accept when men and boys
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: are a little bit different in fact. And it's I
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: guess a good way to describe it as this, Right,
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: you say, you got a classroom full of kids, and
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: they're talking about geometrical shapes in in three dimensions, and
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: the the the feature brings in a cube, a box
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: I and and it's got a different color on every side.
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: And so she can talk about the different aspects of
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: this this shape based on like maybe the lines and
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: colors and everything. But on the blue side, in the
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: upper right hand corner of the square from the perspective
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: of the classroom, there's a little red dot, maybe spaint
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: paint splashed on it or something, uh, you know, and
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: it's it's just there, and it's for most people they
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: are not going to notice it. But you got one
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: boy in a class that does. And it's a glaring
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: mistake that that there's this little red dot in the
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: on the blue square, and that little red dot is
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: not the point of the lesson in the classroom. So
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: the teacher hasn't talked about it, hasn't highlighted it, hasn't
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: said anything. Drives his kid nuts and he finally has
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: to raise his hand and say, there's a little red
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: dot right there on the blue square in the upper
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: right hand corner from from the classroom perspective. And you know,
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: there's different ways the teacher can respond to that. Wow,
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: that's really great that you noticed. That's a fine attention
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: to detail. It's not the current subject of the the lesson,
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: but way way to notice the you know, the finer
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: details of the item that we're examining very observant. Right,
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: good praise, and the interruption is not too long, and
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: the class can go on and discuss other aspects of it.
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: The kid's not going to be as bothered by it
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: anymore because now everybody knows about it and and so on. Right,
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: But a lot of female teachers will turn around and
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: snap at the boy. That's not what we're talking about.
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: We're here to talk about the shape. We don't care
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: about the red dot, right, And at that moment, the uh,
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: the boy has now been castigated for being observant, right,
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: which is not a good thing, because the kid who
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: notices the little red dot might be the kid that
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: goes on in in some engineering project to notice the
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: flaw that is going to cause the building to come
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: down the first time the wind speed gets, you know,
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: above normal breeze level, or the first time there is
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: a minor earthquake, or the first time you know, the
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: land around it thaws. And it's important to have that
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: person who's maybe just a little bit weird that notices
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: what other people disregard because it's not the subject of
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: the conversation. It's important to have that person, even if
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: he lacks the ability to distinguish between when it's important
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: to talk about the red dot and when it isn't,
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: Because when it is, if he's the only person that
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: notices it, and you've told him that he should never
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: talk about the red dot, your building comes down and
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: everyone in side of it is at risk of being
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: crushed if they are, you know, unable to get out then,
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: which when a structure collapses, you don't really get a
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: lot of time. So it's it's important that we notice
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: the difference between when weird should be appreciated, when it
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: should be condoned or just enjoyed. Like, for instance, the
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: guy who comes up with parody lyrics to popular music
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: as his main response to popular music calls himself weird
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: even right, there's no red flag in that, But there
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: are people that would red flag that. No noticing, no
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: noticing that there's a funny way to look at this,
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: no noticing that there's a piece out of place, no
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: noticing that this one one problem in the math book
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: has the wrong answer given on the page where you're
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: supposed to check your work, like, no noticing, right, but yeah,
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: and just that, just as the chud King pointed out,
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: no noticing right. So, yeah, it's very important that we
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: we understand the distinction between appreciable, tolerable, and red flag behavior.
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: But unfortunately we put gender first and assign those concepts
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: outside of their their actual place. We'll go on a
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: little bit more here.
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: Uh.
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: Some might say it's easy for women who can often
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: face unwanted sexual advances and harassment to dismissed men's complaint
- 1:18:01Speaker 1: complaints about sexual rejection. So let's let's talk about the
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: way she worded this. Not it's not just awkward, right,
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: it is called poisoning the water. You are to view
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: based on the way she worded this, you're supposed to
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: view all advances as harassment when these guys do it.
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: Y'all know the meme, right with the the lady in
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: the office, the secretary at the desk, and she gets
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: I don't have it handy, But she gets a compliment
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: from the handsome guy and she's all Twitter painted, and
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: then she gets the compliment from the unattractive guy. Yeah, yep,
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: threatens threatens in him with human resources like that that one. Yep,
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: poisoning the well. Uh, you're supposed to see from her perspective,
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: You're supposed to see that as sexual harassment being being
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: spoken to by a guy that is beneath her notice.
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: In her opinion, we don't do well to recognize how
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: painful this sexual invisibleness feels. Costello says, when men in
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: particular are in that poor mental health, they externalize their aggression.
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: But we find that in cells have an awful lot
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: of toxic self image too, so they have a lot
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: of hate toward themselves. Loneliness is a hell of a drug.
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: And this is something that I think a lot of
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: women do not understand because nobody lets us experience loneliness.
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: If they think we're lonely, they come looking for us,
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: even if we're weird, even if we're the uh, the
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: one that doesn't you know, doesn't get it, dances the
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: all the right moves to the wrong song, know, and
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: so on like that or the wrong and the right
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: lyrics to the wrong song, wrong lyrics to the right song.
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: We uh, we get invited to not be lonely, most
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: of us, if not by men and by other women. Now,
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: what happens when men try to rescue other men from loneliness?
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: Women bitch about it.
- 1:20:26Speaker 3: Like this article, and then the faith spaces MM.
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: Hmm, yep. You probably can't find an in cell space
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: online that has not been invaded by women, even if
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: they take measures to make it a male only space.
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: There have been feminists who have pretended to be male
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: in cells and invaded those spaces and then come back
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: and said nasty things.
- 1:20:56Speaker 3: About them, and Baits was one of them. Yep.
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: And of course, if there's ten thousand posts on a forum,
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: you could probably find a handful the very worst examples
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: on the forum that would upset people. But are they representatives?
- 1:21:19Speaker 3: You know?
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: Are those those posts ambassadors for that forum or would
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: they be a typical if you got five to ten
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: posts out of ten thousand, would that be providing a
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: good example or would that be painting a picture based
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: on your attitude? Which is what I think she did.
- 1:21:46Speaker 4: Not many people post in the forums. It's just the
- 1:21:49Speaker 4: same group of people posting, so you have.
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: A wide range of opinions.
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: I imagine you do. And just a little bit that
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: I've interacted with with people who are are open on
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook and stuff about being in cells. I
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: see both sides of the political fence represented in terms
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: of independence versus collectivism. I see social safety nets and
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: you know, and so on, being promoted by some and
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: avoided by others. I see, some people are religious and
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: some are not. Some are atheists and some are not. Like,
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: it's quite interesting, there seems to be. It goes across
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: every part of the human spectrum of of uh demographic types. Honestly,
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: some and some.
- 1:22:52Speaker 4: Will just say that and hate some will just say
- 1:22:57Speaker 4: the emal repeatedly, and some hate blacks.
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: Yeah, but a lot of Insuls are black. That's another one.
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: Didn't you say, Richard, that in cults are disproportionately black.
- 1:23:17Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm the Asian like Indian as well.
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: Yeah, and and probably darker skinned Indians more than lighter
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: skin Indians. And it seems like whether civilization a particular
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: civilization acknowledges having a cast system or not. Sorry, guys,
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: I'm going to get distracted a lot now. That damn
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: thing is going off like every feature.
- 1:23:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I keep hearing it as well.
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: I'm just like, I'm really trying hard. I'm sorry.
- 1:23:51Speaker 2: I can if you want to get if you want
- 1:23:53Speaker 2: to head off now and change the batteries, I think
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: I could.
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: I can't. If I change the batteries, the fire alarm
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: will go off. I have to wait. I'm sorry. Yeah,
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: I don't know how. I don't know what button to
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: push in there, what series of like it's got some
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: sort of thing. If I just take the battery out,
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: it's it's it's bad. I don't I don't want to
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: deal with that again. Have you ever heard one of those.
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: It's like a car alarm, and when it goes off,
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: it's like one part of a car alarm. It's really
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: high pitched and you'll find.
- 1:24:33Speaker 3: Yeah, you could do it.
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh no, we're not. We've we've got, We've got
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: it's longer than it looks. Yeah, where was I? Oh god,
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: I see Andrew tape mentioned again. I forgot about that. Okay,
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: so we were Yeah, so we'll we'll skip whatever it was.
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: I was just talking to the c c study because
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: I'm just completely derailed. That noise is gonna kill me.
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: The CCE study also found that insults are likely to
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: have extremely poor mental health. Many have depression and suicidal thoughts. Again, hello, loneliness,
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: what does it do to you? I'm sorry, guys, it's good.
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: I will I will read the next two paragraphs here,
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: and then we're gonna switch out for the Patron Show.
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go cover that fucking thing with a
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: with a hat.
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: I'll say the thing I was I was I was
- 1:25:43Speaker 2: thinking of saying, Well, you went off and changed this.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: I'm going to mute. I will unmute when I come back.
- 1:25:51Speaker 2: Okay, there is this irony given what Richard just informed
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: us of that there are uh so many racial minorities
- 1:26:04Speaker 2: disproportionately who find themselves as in cells. And this isn't
- 1:26:13Speaker 2: to demonize any of them, because I don't consider in
- 1:26:18Speaker 2: celt to be a demonizing term. I find it to
- 1:26:22Speaker 2: be a made up term that that feminists made up
- 1:26:30Speaker 2: completely with no with with no value as to who
- 1:26:40Speaker 2: they might be applying this term too. But yeah, this
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: is something that does affect Dare I say immigrant men,
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: because I know this has become a theme in the
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: in the advancement of of of of what is called
- 1:27:02Speaker 2: all kinds of things with the word right attached to it.
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's people who feel isolated. And yeah,
- 1:27:11Speaker 2: there's there's a there's there's a lot of minorities who
- 1:27:15Speaker 2: feel isolated, but men feel isolated. Anything you could say
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: about migrants who feel isolated, the same thing can be
- 1:27:26Speaker 2: said about Native men because they've been isolated in the
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: same way. But that by this same narrative of of
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: of the the general populace who are defined as the enemy,
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: and the general populace defined as the enemy are men
- 1:27:53Speaker 2: and and and yes, that that is especially straight white
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: male CIS men, but that that includes uh, straight sis men,
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: of of of anyone who's not male. And even as
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: we flood this country with all manner of men who
- 1:28:17Speaker 2: are all manner of boys who are not white, they
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: are presented with the same narrative that because you are male,
- 1:28:27Speaker 2: and because you are straight, and because you are sis,
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: you should feel bad for who you are and yeat.
- 1:28:37Speaker 2: This doesn't discriminate between any given race. It applies to
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: all of all of the men, all of the boys.
- 1:28:46Speaker 2: It's not just the white boys. It's the black boys,
- 1:28:49Speaker 2: and the brown boys and the yellow boys. Is it
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: applies to all of them, and and and so it's
- 1:28:58Speaker 2: all ostensibly being offset along the lines of because you're
- 1:29:04Speaker 2: not white, no, you have this fail safe. Because you're
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: not white, you have this, you have this out that well,
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: at least I'm not white, so I could still present
- 1:29:16Speaker 2: myself as a victim. But this offers next to nothing
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: in terms of a of a fail safe. At the
- 1:29:25Speaker 2: end of the day, you're still male, and no matter
- 1:29:28Speaker 2: what color you are, if you're male, the schools in
- 1:29:35Speaker 2: this country will teach you that because you're male, you
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: should feel bad, you should feel like you're you are
- 1:29:44Speaker 2: the oppressor, even though they're simultaneously teaching you that you
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: should feel oppressed by straight white Sis man at the
- 1:29:55Speaker 2: same time, you should feel like you are an oppressor.
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: And yeah, this this dragged them in both directions, and
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: in a way that's even worse because you know, straight
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: white Cis males, straight Caucasian males are being told that
- 1:30:17Speaker 2: you are every aspect of the bad thing, and so
- 1:30:22Speaker 2: they have to think of themselves as villains and that
- 1:30:29Speaker 2: but purely as villains, and so they they have to
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: figure that ship out. But the the racially diverse boys
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: who go to these schools, they are told that they're
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: bad people because they're males, but they're also good people
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: because they're not white. And this this drives them in
- 1:30:52Speaker 2: two different directions. They're bad because they're males, but they're
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: good because they're not white. And in a way that's
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: even worse because they're like, well, what the fuck am
- 1:31:05Speaker 2: I Am I a villain or am I a victim?
- 1:31:08Speaker 2: I guess I'm both. And you know, to think of
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: yourself as a villain will ruin you psychologically, and to
- 1:31:19Speaker 2: think of yourself as a victim will ruin you psychologically.
- 1:31:25Speaker 2: And if anything, if you're a male who is who
- 1:31:29Speaker 2: is not white or not straight or not says or whatever,
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: you're you're going to be driven in both different directions.
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: You're a villain and a victim at the same time.
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: And if anything, that's gonna fuck you up psychologically. Even more, like,
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: women are constantly being told that they're victims and it
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: kind of doesn't matter what their race is. Like as
- 1:31:58Speaker 2: long as you're a woman, you're a victim. And even
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: if even if you're the whitest woman whoever, even if
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: you're the whitest girl who ever existed, don't worry. You're
- 1:32:10Speaker 2: a victim. You can focus on just being a victim.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: Doesn't matter what your race is, don't don't worry. You
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: can always fall back on the idea that you're a victim.
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: And the fact if you don't, other women will get
- 1:32:23Speaker 1: mad at you.
- 1:32:24Speaker 2: Yeah, but and and it's like what Richard was saying,
- 1:32:29Speaker 2: and it's and it's like, if you can ever get
- 1:32:32Speaker 2: an honest account from males of of any of these
- 1:32:39Speaker 2: client races, they will be like, they don't know how
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: to describe this because they're being painted as villains and
- 1:32:49Speaker 2: victims at the same time. And that's you know, it's
- 1:32:53Speaker 2: hard enough for us straight white CIS males too to
- 1:33:00Speaker 2: come to terms with being painted as victims, sorry, as
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: villains in every possible dimension. And that's like, you can
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: see why we would reject that, because like, I'm not
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: a villain in every way. I mean, surely there must
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: be some kind, some aspect of my identity that's not
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: a villain. And yet my school is telling me that
- 1:33:25Speaker 2: I'm a villain in every possible direction. But any male
- 1:33:31Speaker 2: of a racial client group or or sexual orientation client group,
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: yeah yeah, gay men, slush boys, or in the same
- 1:33:45Speaker 2: situation as racial minority boys or men who are being told, yeah,
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: you're in a way you're a victim and in a
- 1:33:54Speaker 2: way you're you're a villain. And that's that's that's double
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: the psychological trauma. Like it's it's it's highly unhealthy to
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: think of yourself as a victim, and it's highly unhealthy
- 1:34:11Speaker 2: to think of yourself as a villain, and racial minority
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: men and boys are being given both of those, having
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: having both of those psychological traumas inflicted on them. And
- 1:34:31Speaker 2: and you know, racial minority girls are having both of
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: those thrust upon them. They're having two layers of victim herd,
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: Like you're a victim because of your gender, and you're
- 1:34:42Speaker 2: a victim because of your race, and that's gonna that's
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: gonna fuck you up even more so. This, yeah, this
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: whole victim villain mentality that is being thrust upon everyone,
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: if any affects racial minorities even more. It affects girls
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: and boys kind of equally.
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: It's all a con job that is used to exploit people.
- 1:35:16Speaker 1: And if you are not exploitable based on the villain
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: hood or victimhood that is imposed on you, if you
- 1:35:26Speaker 1: don't adopt that mentality and allow yourself to be exploited
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: as canon fodder in the political war on individual rights
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: and freedoms, then you become automatically the villain, and you're
- 1:35:44Speaker 1: a bigger villain than any other villain, and suddenly you
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: have to be canceled and eliminated, especially if you do
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: not lend yourself to the being used as victim fodder
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: on which the excuses for taking away certain groups civil
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: or human rights and freedoms is based, because that's the
- 1:36:16Speaker 1: wedge that is being used by the puppet masters of
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: folk ideology to take away everybody's rights and freedoms. So,
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: for instance, if you're female and you are a recovered
- 1:36:32Speaker 1: rape victim, and you do not support the idea that
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: it's not a big deal that there are falsely accused
- 1:36:38Speaker 1: men who spend thirty eight years in prison, because rape
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: victims have it worse, and so you know, you say
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: you're a due process rights advocate, under that circumstance, you
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: are a bigger threat than just any other recovered victim
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: or any other independent person, any other due process rights advocate,
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: because you buck the system of using the victimhood of
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: female rape survivors as a wedge to pry loose the
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: attachment that your country's citizens might have to their due
- 1:37:25Speaker 1: process rights. That's how that basically works.
- 1:37:30Speaker 2: I was trying to think of what the opposite of
- 1:37:32Speaker 2: a straight white is male is and I guess it's
- 1:37:35Speaker 2: it's a lesbian, transit, transgender black woman. And I think,
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: do they suffer the same do they suffer the equivalent
- 1:37:48Speaker 2: problem of being a straight white sismle. And yes they do,
- 1:37:51Speaker 2: because they've been layered with four different kinds of victimhood.
- 1:37:56Speaker 2: Like it's bad to see yourself as a victim because
- 1:37:59Speaker 2: of mutable characteristic. It's just like it's bad to see
- 1:38:03Speaker 2: yourself as as as a villain because of a mutable characteristics. Yeah,
- 1:38:08Speaker 2: this is a system that nobody benefits from, just like
- 1:38:12Speaker 2: like I was saying on Tuesday that this this fucking
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: war in Iran is not benefiting any anyone. It's just
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: fucking everyone up. And yeah, this is if if you,
- 1:38:24Speaker 2: if you divide everyone, no matter how many iterations of
- 1:38:28Speaker 2: of division you you apply to this, if you, if you,
- 1:38:34Speaker 2: if you think of yourself as an as four different
- 1:38:37Speaker 2: kinds of victim or four different kinds of villain or
- 1:38:41Speaker 2: equal parts villain and victim, like, none of it is good.
- 1:38:45Speaker 2: It's it's all just gonna fuck you up psychologically, Like,
- 1:38:51Speaker 2: no immutable characteristic makes you a villain or a victim.
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: The only thing that should make you a villain or
- 1:38:59Speaker 2: a victim is stuff that has happened to you, the
- 1:39:05Speaker 2: events that have happened in your life.
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: Well, how you respond to that event can also determine things,
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: like you know that there are things that I've gone
- 1:39:17Speaker 1: through that people have said to me when they've heard
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: about it or learned about it. My gosh, I'm so
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: sorry for you, and I've asked why because I'm you know, like,
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: I got bit by mosquito that grew in probably this
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: sump pump in my parents' house in December of nineteen
- 1:39:40Speaker 1: eighty four, and I are sorry nineteen eighty yeah, it
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: would have been nineteen eighty four. I got sick. I
- 1:39:48Speaker 1: got encephalitis, which is swelling of the It wasn't in
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: swelling of the actual brain tissue, was swelling of the
- 1:39:58Speaker 1: lining around the brain, but they still called it stuff
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: lights And then it eventually did spread to the brain.
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: I was in a short coma and everything from that,
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: and it hurt like a son of a bitch. Like
- 1:40:10Speaker 1: if you'd have approached me with a power drill and
- 1:40:13Speaker 1: said let me relieve some of that pain, I'd have
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: been like okay. And I was like twelve years old
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: when that happened, And of course I was talking about
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: it last year, so from twelve to fifty two, so
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: forty years later, right, and somebody was like, oh, that
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: must have been horrible. I'm so sorry you went through that,
- 1:40:38Speaker 1: and I'm like, it was forty years ago. It was
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: an awful experience. But there are some things that I've
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: learned since then. I you know, I've read up on mosquitoes,
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: and you know, I read up on how to keep
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: them out of your house and away from you when
- 1:40:52Speaker 1: you're camping and stuff like that. It's made me a
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: more cautious person. And I've figured things out that you know,
- 1:40:59Speaker 1: I have change the way I respond to spiders and
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: other creatures that eat mosquitoes. And it's if you take
- 1:41:10Speaker 1: something like that and all right, I survived this. I
- 1:41:14Speaker 1: got a side benefit by the way, I can get
- 1:41:16Speaker 1: a migraine without feeling any pain at all unless I
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: think about it, and then I'll notice it, and it
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: does hurt. It's just not anywhere near as bad as
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: encephalitis hurt. But I'll usually i'll notice that when I
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: get ocular migraines. So I'll notice it when I see
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: the glowy doughnut in one eye and not the other.
- 1:41:36Speaker 1: But and anybody that gets ocular migraines knows what I'm
- 1:41:40Speaker 1: talking about. But it really depends I don't consider myself
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: a victim of that happening to me. Like at the time,
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: I was a victim, and my parents were victims. My
- 1:41:55Speaker 1: brother was a victim because they had they all had
- 1:41:57Speaker 1: to sit and worry. Most of the the experience that
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: I had with it was being unconscious or being delirious,
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: so that I really didn't know what was going on.
- 1:42:12Speaker 1: I felt the pain enough to remember it and have
- 1:42:18Speaker 1: you know, a different attitude toward head pain than is normal.
- 1:42:22Speaker 1: But my mom in particular, like she didn't leave my
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: side at the hospital. She stayed with me at the hospital,
- 1:42:32Speaker 1: and when I was in a coma, I could hear
- 1:42:34Speaker 1: her praying that God wouldn't take me away, And like that,
- 1:42:41Speaker 1: I would consider her to have been a bigger victim
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: of the situation than me, because the emotional roller coaster
- 1:42:47Speaker 1: that she he was on every time I showed a
- 1:42:51Speaker 1: little improvement and then dove right back down into super
- 1:42:54Speaker 1: high fever that could be potentially deadly or take away
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: my vision or my hearing and all that, I was
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: a lot less aware of what was going on. And
- 1:43:05Speaker 1: you know, my dad had to continue working the whole time.
- 1:43:11Speaker 1: He couldn't take time off work to be there because
- 1:43:16Speaker 1: our bills would have gotten paid, and so he had
- 1:43:19Speaker 1: to rely on my mom for information. But cell phones
- 1:43:22Speaker 1: were not a thing for people in our income bracket
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: back then, and they didn't call them anyway. They were
- 1:43:28Speaker 1: called car phones because you didn't carry them around, you
- 1:43:31Speaker 1: had them in your car. And so yeah, and my
- 1:43:35Speaker 1: little brother didn't really know what was going on, except
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: that the adults were all scared, right, and those levels
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: of people don't think about stuff like that. I would
- 1:43:47Speaker 1: much rather have gone through the experience I went through
- 1:43:50Speaker 1: than than what they went through because of what I
- 1:43:54Speaker 1: was going through, and it's it's it was a lot
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: easier to be the one in the hospital bed than
- 1:44:01Speaker 1: the one praying to God not to take away a
- 1:44:05Speaker 1: family member. So victimhood is very much relative and that
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: was not intended as a pun And because of that,
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: and when you have that mentality imposed on you, you
- 1:44:22Speaker 1: have to feel bad about this. You have to feel helpless,
- 1:44:26Speaker 1: you have to feel robbed, kept down and trampled, and
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: you're not allowed to experience what your brain goes through
- 1:44:39Speaker 1: when you overcome something that is hard. When you have
- 1:44:43Speaker 1: a success in spite of difficulties, pain and suffering, hurdles
- 1:44:51Speaker 1: and sabotage. When you succeed in spite of that, the
- 1:44:58Speaker 1: changes that take place in your brain as a result
- 1:45:02Speaker 1: of that are so beneficial. I can't even begin. It
- 1:45:07Speaker 1: would take a whole show just to talk about that.
- 1:45:10Speaker 1: But for people shorthand on this, for people who play
- 1:45:13Speaker 1: video games, you know what that feels like in small doses,
- 1:45:18Speaker 1: every time you hit a hard part of the game,
- 1:45:22Speaker 1: and you grind until you get it, until you beat it,
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: until you get good right. And I think everybody that
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: is dedicated to something, music, dancing, math, any type of profession,
- 1:45:39Speaker 1: inventing something, writing something, creating something, building something, you all
- 1:45:45Speaker 1: know what that feels like. So it's a terrible, terrible
- 1:45:52Speaker 1: disservice to people to impose victimhood on them and say
- 1:45:57Speaker 1: you have to feel helpless, you have to feel bad,
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: you have to never think you can overcome this, you
- 1:46:03Speaker 1: have to never feel successful at overcoming this, because if
- 1:46:09Speaker 1: you do, you're hurting other people who were victims. And
- 1:46:13Speaker 1: that's what That's what they do to minorities, that's what
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: they do to victims of intimate partner and sexual violence.
- 1:46:20Speaker 1: That's what they do to women in general. And it's
- 1:46:24Speaker 1: it's evil in some ways. It's it's as evil as
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: killing people, because you're killing human spirits. I don't know
- 1:46:34Speaker 1: if you guys can still hear the chirp. I will
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: tell you this. I put shit. I put a plastic
- 1:46:41Speaker 1: cookie container over it because I put the hat over it,
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: and it did jack and shit, it did nothing. So
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: this is just driving me nuts. But so I'll read
- 1:46:53Speaker 1: the last paragraph I thought I was going to read. Well,
- 1:46:57Speaker 1: I haven't finished with this one. So mentioned or she mentioned,
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: uh that in cells are likely to have extremely poor
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: mental health, and it's I would say some of that
- 1:47:07Speaker 1: is imposed, like obviously loneliness can do that, but the
- 1:47:13Speaker 1: way that they are treated by other people, outside of
- 1:47:16Speaker 1: just not having the connection and not having the support group,
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: people are mean to in cells. It is a fact, right,
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: And that's they're mean to in cells before and they
- 1:47:31Speaker 1: ever go into a forum and start talking to other
- 1:47:33Speaker 1: in cells mostly mhm off of insults in cells. Yep,
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: that that is true. And cells are mean to each other,
- 1:47:45Speaker 1: and that's we don't teach people to be kind anymore
- 1:47:53Speaker 1: or even just normally tolerant of people who are a
- 1:47:59Speaker 1: little bit differ I think that the book The Sneely
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: Mouth Snards and The Wonder Octopus should be republished and
- 1:48:09Speaker 1: should be required reading at every school. That might get
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: kids to understand a little bit about human uh human
- 1:48:18Speaker 1: contact with everyone instead of just your favorite people.
- 1:48:24Speaker 4: Health health professionals on means yeah, it's it's weird.
- 1:48:32Speaker 1: Health professionals are mean to a lot of people, and
- 1:48:34Speaker 1: when I had encephalitis, they're not even always intentionally mean.
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: This lady was trying to not scare the kid. And
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: there is nothing more terrifying, uh if to a kid
- 1:48:48Speaker 1: who's had emergency after emergency in their life and knows
- 1:48:53Speaker 1: the drill than an adult who fakes normalcy to avoid
- 1:49:00Speaker 1: scaring the kid like that. That person tells you that
- 1:49:04Speaker 1: this is very serious and you might die without well
- 1:49:09Speaker 1: the whole time they're trying to not tell you that
- 1:49:12Speaker 1: my mom and my grandma grandma had been an e
- 1:49:16Speaker 1: our nurse. They were just very matter of fact with everything. Okay,
- 1:49:20Speaker 1: let's let's stand up and get in the car. They
- 1:49:24Speaker 1: had to help me walk to the car, and neither
- 1:49:27Speaker 1: one of them could pick me up because at twelve
- 1:49:29Speaker 1: years old, I was taller than my mom and almost
- 1:49:31Speaker 1: as tall as my grandma, and so they between the
- 1:49:34Speaker 1: two of them, they walked me to the car and
- 1:49:38Speaker 1: helped me turn and pivot like I was disabled, and
- 1:49:43Speaker 1: they did not you know, there wasn't an now do this, okay, now,
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: let's get you situated here. It was okay, just turn
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: this way, sit down, You'll feel better when we get
- 1:49:53Speaker 1: this treated. Let's get your feet into the car, okay,
- 1:49:56Speaker 1: and don't forget your seat belt. You know, none of this,
- 1:49:59Speaker 1: none of the uh there's a high pitched, chirpy voice
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: that that these a lot of women do this right,
- 1:50:08Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, look at you. Aren't you so cute?
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: What you know?
- 1:50:12Speaker 3: What?
- 1:50:12Speaker 1: What's your name? Like I'm going to strangle you? And
- 1:50:18Speaker 1: that's the way I felt about it, And and it was, Uh.
- 1:50:21Speaker 1: I wasn't scared when I went into the hospital, but
- 1:50:26Speaker 1: it took my mom and my grandma an hour to
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: call me down after interacting with that nurse like that.
- 1:50:32Speaker 1: And she was not trying to be mean, she wasn't
- 1:50:36Speaker 1: trying to scare me. Right now, the male version of this,
- 1:50:41Speaker 1: I had injured one of my fingers. It was I
- 1:50:45Speaker 1: had broken my Oh no, that was when I had
- 1:50:51Speaker 1: I was in the hospital with paracarditis when I was eight.
- 1:50:53Speaker 1: That is an infection in the lightning around the heart.
- 1:50:56Speaker 1: We still don't know how I got that. And this
- 1:51:00Speaker 1: male nurse made a big deal about getting the X
- 1:51:03Speaker 1: ray of my finger to make sure I could get
- 1:51:06Speaker 1: that splint off, like he was comforting a dying patient,
- 1:51:12Speaker 1: and you know, this is a mission. And that scared
- 1:51:17Speaker 1: me too, because I'm like, why is this such a
- 1:51:18Speaker 1: big deal. I'm a little uncomfortable. I don't like the splint,
- 1:51:21Speaker 1: but it's just a splint, you know. It's not like
- 1:51:24Speaker 1: my friend that came to school for however many weeks
- 1:51:27Speaker 1: with a cast on his leg and crutches, Like that's uncomfortable.
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: And again it's that there. There's just the faky overdoing it,
- 1:51:40Speaker 1: melodramatic adults that do that, and in healthcare even when
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: they're trying to be nice, right, But the minute you're
- 1:51:51Speaker 1: an adult, or you're old enough to go in there
- 1:51:53Speaker 1: without a parent, or your parent isn't watching attentively and
- 1:51:57Speaker 1: you don't understand and all their instructions because they've used
- 1:52:03Speaker 1: a word that could mean a thousand different things and
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: you don't know which one they mean, or you have
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: difficulty tolerating something like the temperature of the thing they
- 1:52:13Speaker 1: are putting against your skin, or the position that they're
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: asking you to sit in or hold yourself in so
- 1:52:20Speaker 1: you can get that X ray. Like, they start snapping
- 1:52:23Speaker 1: at you, they start treating you like you're being wimpy,
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: They tell you they can't help you. Right, I would
- 1:52:35Speaker 1: say it's not just in cells. Healthcare professionals are mean
- 1:52:39Speaker 1: to autistic people, and since there's an overlap, like, it's
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: a really mean but yeah, so they also score highly
- 1:52:54Speaker 1: on a personality construct called the tendency for interpersonal victimhood,
- 1:52:59Speaker 1: which results in a life lack of empathy. Costello says
- 1:53:03Speaker 1: the way that manifests of victimhood orientation is no one
- 1:53:06Speaker 1: cares about my pain, why should I care about yours?
- 1:53:09Speaker 1: So I will remind everybody what I said before about empathy, sympathy,
- 1:53:13Speaker 1: and compassion. Empathy is the ability to understand I feel
- 1:53:21Speaker 1: your pain right. Empathy is literally I feel your pain.
- 1:53:27Speaker 1: When I say headache. Everyone mentally can catalog headache because
- 1:53:32Speaker 1: they've had one, right, similar to stepped on a bee.
- 1:53:37Speaker 1: If I if I say stepped on a bee. Besides
- 1:53:40Speaker 1: the fact that it makes you think of uh ever heard,
- 1:53:46Speaker 1: you can mentally catalog that pain. If you've ever stepped
- 1:53:48Speaker 1: on a bee.
- 1:53:49Speaker 2: It's not just that you can you can't help. This
- 1:53:51Speaker 2: is why I'm gonna do I'm going to do a
- 1:53:54Speaker 2: long term video about fucking suicidal empathy because it'll it
- 1:54:00Speaker 2: all depends on the idea that well, it flies in
- 1:54:03Speaker 2: the face of the idea. Empathy is an involuntary reaction, right, right,
- 1:54:10Speaker 2: People who have empathy can't help feel the empathy for everyone,
- 1:54:14Speaker 2: even the world's worst people.
- 1:54:17Speaker 1: And even professionals are using the word incorrectly.
- 1:54:22Speaker 2: Yeah, what he's.
- 1:54:25Speaker 1: Talking about is sympathy. Why should I caring about No
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: one cares about my pain, why should I care about yours? Right,
- 1:54:33Speaker 1: Empathy is I feel your pain. Sympathy Sympathy is I'm
- 1:54:40Speaker 1: so sorry you're in pain. And compassion is let me
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: see what I can do to help you get out
- 1:54:49Speaker 1: of that pain.
- 1:54:52Speaker 2: Yes, I suppose compassion in that sense when it's when
- 1:54:56Speaker 2: it's tied to action, is voluntary. But when we speak
- 1:55:05Speaker 2: of empathy, it's it's an involuntary thing. And this is
- 1:55:09Speaker 2: why it pisses me so off so much. When when
- 1:55:12Speaker 2: people talk about suicidal empathy. If you have empathy for
- 1:55:20Speaker 2: some demographics, but you don't have empathy for other demographics.
- 1:55:25Speaker 2: That's not empathy. And an empathic person, sorry, an empathetic
- 1:55:31Speaker 2: person will feel empathy for any given person involuntarily, even
- 1:55:39Speaker 2: criminals on death row. And an empathic person can can
- 1:55:43Speaker 2: watch a child rapist on death row getting electrocuted to
- 1:55:50Speaker 2: death and they will feel empathy for that person because
- 1:55:53Speaker 2: they can't help it. That's what empathy is. It's like,
- 1:55:56Speaker 2: like I said, it's an involuntary reaction and that so
- 1:56:04Speaker 2: to to describe licophobes as empathetic is completely missing the point. Yeah,
- 1:56:13Speaker 2: because because we're talking about people who who only give
- 1:56:19Speaker 2: a ship about the feelings of certain demographics and they
- 1:56:23Speaker 2: give exactly zero ships about the feelings of other demographics.
- 1:56:29Speaker 2: That is not empathy. That is the exact opposite of empathy.
- 1:56:33Speaker 2: That is hierarchy. It's only giving a ship about certain
- 1:56:39Speaker 2: demographics and giving no ships about other demographics. If anything
- 1:56:44Speaker 2: that describes uh psychopathy, it's it's it's it's where, it's
- 1:56:52Speaker 2: it's where you. It's where you have this hierarchy in
- 1:56:55Speaker 2: your brain of people who deserve compassion and people who
- 1:57:01Speaker 2: do not. I say compassion as as something connects to
- 1:57:07Speaker 2: the actions that you make in order to help those people.
- 1:57:12Speaker 1: By the way, empathy can go different directions. For instance,
- 1:57:15Speaker 1: like your example of somebody watching a pedo be a
- 1:57:21Speaker 1: molester because they don't. They don't arrest people for thoughts,
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: they arrest people for actions, and a pedophile is just
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: somebody who has impulses in that direction. As soon as
- 1:57:33Speaker 1: you act on those impulses, an individual is no longer
- 1:57:36Speaker 1: just a pedophile. There now a molester or a rapist.
- 1:57:41Speaker 1: And if somebody acts on those impulses and then kills
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: the victim, they may get the death penalty. In some
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: states in the US, a person can watch that person
- 1:57:51Speaker 1: be electrocuted and feel their pain mentally and care about it, right,
- 1:58:00Speaker 1: and that's sympathy, But the way in which they care
- 1:58:04Speaker 1: may be not compassionate. So some people might be happy
- 1:58:10Speaker 1: that person is in pain because they want that person
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: to be punished. That is sympathy, but it's anti sympathy,
- 1:58:19Speaker 1: right because you don't you care. But the caring falls
- 1:58:25Speaker 1: into the category of a sadistic caring as opposed to
- 1:58:29Speaker 1: a compassionate caring. And these are all termed. People don't
- 1:58:35Speaker 1: understand words, and it does I get pedantic about it
- 1:58:40Speaker 1: when people use them incorrectly in a way that leaves
- 1:58:43Speaker 1: room for error in in hashing out concepts. And actually
- 1:58:49Speaker 1: I do like Costello, But that that tells you professionals
- 1:58:56Speaker 1: use these words incorrectly in ways that leave room for
- 1:59:01Speaker 1: communication to be derailed in a way that creates openings
- 1:59:07Speaker 1: for lack of compassion. Compassion can also be I can't
- 1:59:12Speaker 1: do anything about your pain, but maybe I can give
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: you some other type of relief, like for instance, when
- 1:59:21Speaker 1: when my mom had her last surgery, they couldn't. They
- 1:59:25Speaker 1: had a limit to how much pain medicine they can
- 1:59:27Speaker 1: give a person right without causing damage and eventually killing
- 1:59:32Speaker 1: the individual. And that my mom was at that point.
- 1:59:36Speaker 1: She had her whole spine worked on. She had been
- 1:59:40Speaker 1: walking crooked like literally bent over to her left, and
- 1:59:44Speaker 1: they straightened her spine. She had a lot done. And
- 1:59:49Speaker 1: there's a degree to which there's going to be pain,
- 1:59:53Speaker 1: and you're going to have to deal with pain, and
- 1:59:56Speaker 1: so you can't you can't shut that off. But you
- 1:59:59Speaker 1: can distract. You can hold someone's hand, you can give
- 2:00:03Speaker 1: them something else to think about, anything else. You can
- 2:00:07Speaker 1: show love and be be close and let them see
- 2:00:15Speaker 1: that you're suffering with them. And you know, even expressing
- 2:00:20Speaker 1: distress over someone else's experiences that are distressing is a
- 2:00:27Speaker 1: form of compassion. That's all important, and it has less
- 2:00:33Speaker 1: to do with empathy and more to do with valuing
- 2:00:38Speaker 1: the individual and the individual's experiences. The big problem that
- 2:00:43Speaker 1: we are seeing in this article right now. Costello does
- 2:00:48Speaker 1: show some valuing of insults in their experiences the way
- 2:00:53Speaker 1: that he talks, even in his quotes here that the
- 2:00:56Speaker 1: quotes that she picked, which are probably the ones that
- 2:00:59Speaker 1: were the easiest for her to portray as a negative
- 2:01:06Speaker 1: assessment of insults instead of a positive assessment, he shows compassion.
- 2:01:16Speaker 1: And you know, for instance, where she says, some academic
- 2:01:22Speaker 1: studies indicated that men who are deemed to be of
- 2:01:24Speaker 1: what Costello calls low mate value are more likely to
- 2:01:27Speaker 1: become hostile towards women. He didn't say that necessarily, she did.
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: She's excited studies, and consequently women tend to not like misogynists,
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: So you become lower mate value than more misogynists, than
- 2:01:44Speaker 1: lower mate value than more misogynists. It's the cycle, which
- 2:01:48Speaker 1: indicates that an individual gets trapped in a vicious social
- 2:01:54Speaker 1: cycle that affects them mentally. Where Costello would view this
- 2:01:58Speaker 1: as something that could would be dealt with in a
- 2:02:02Speaker 1: way that would help the individual get back into the
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: social fold. She might view this as something that would
- 2:02:12Speaker 1: be a reason to treat the individual as a threat
- 2:02:15Speaker 1: and further exclude them and possibly incarcerate them. Feminists and
- 2:02:22Speaker 1: treat it very differently than the people who are actually
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: studying in souls and trying to understand them. And here's
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: where Costello says the same thing in a way with
- 2:02:37Speaker 1: the the this that way, the way that manifests and
- 2:02:41Speaker 1: victimhood orientation is no one cares about my pain, why
- 2:02:44Speaker 1: should I care about yours. People reflect the way they
- 2:02:46Speaker 1: are treated, and it creates a mentality. And as the
- 2:02:53Speaker 1: previous paragraph shows that that mentality can push people away,
- 2:02:57Speaker 1: it results in more treatment of the type that caused
- 2:03:03Speaker 1: the mentality, and it exacerbates the mentality. And if you
- 2:03:10Speaker 1: have someone who is autistic or has some other intellectual
- 2:03:16Speaker 1: disability who has been raised with social handicaps, they were
- 2:03:20Speaker 1: raised in a man desert, They were raised in an
- 2:03:23Speaker 1: environment where being a little bit different got them excluded.
- 2:03:28Speaker 1: They were programmed growing up to respond this way. Their
- 2:03:33Speaker 1: ability to break that cycle may be very limited. Whereas
- 2:03:39Speaker 1: the people around them who were raised in a more
- 2:03:43Speaker 1: functional environment, Maybe they weren't raised in a man desert,
- 2:03:48Speaker 1: Maybe they have a lot more examples in their life
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: of being included and treating treated with at least baseline
- 2:03:57Speaker 1: kindness and such. They have the capability of breaking that cycle.
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: And if people choose to respond by engaging in further
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: cruelty and isolationism as opposed to kindness and attempting to
- 2:04:20Speaker 1: break that cycle by changing the way that they treat
- 2:04:26Speaker 1: in cells, then maybe that cycle could be broken and
- 2:04:31Speaker 1: maybe reversed. But if it's continually imposed, if they continue
- 2:04:40Speaker 1: to have to suffer cruelty and being excluded, being treated,
- 2:04:48Speaker 1: being treated like a disease, like an infection in the
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: pop the population, it's only going to get worse. Right,
- 2:05:00Speaker 1: So it's actually up to everyone out there listening. It's
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: actually up to both men and women who recognize that
- 2:05:14Speaker 1: human value isn't determined by how many how many people
- 2:05:18Speaker 1: like you, it's it's uh shown I suppose how much
- 2:05:24Speaker 1: other people recognize it by how many people like you
- 2:05:28Speaker 1: or how many people treat how people other people treat you.
- 2:05:32Speaker 1: But the baseline of human value is you are worth
- 2:05:35Speaker 1: as much as a human being, and that starts out
- 2:05:40Speaker 1: that way with every human being, and it is We're
- 2:05:45Speaker 1: never going to solve this if we don't recognize that
- 2:05:48Speaker 1: and change what we're doing. I'm going to call it
- 2:05:53Speaker 1: into it here because it's in ten, ten after nine,
- 2:05:55Speaker 1: it's twelve after nine now, so hopefully we can we
- 2:06:01Speaker 1: can get that noise fixed. Uh in between now and
- 2:06:05Speaker 1: the Patron only after show, so I don't get I
- 2:06:09Speaker 1: don't lose my train of thought every thirty seconds.
- 2:06:13Speaker 4: You should be you should you should be you should
- 2:06:16Speaker 4: be able to find that we was kept booking matron
- 2:06:18Speaker 4: line somewhere.
- 2:06:19Speaker 1: Definitely, we'll we'll do our best too. But in the meantime,
- 2:06:23Speaker 1: thanks everybody for listening. Let's see I got all of
- 2:06:28Speaker 1: the super chows. I don't think there are any super chats.
- 2:06:35Speaker 1: Let's double check. I know there were not any paid
- 2:06:39Speaker 1: ruble rants, so and I don't see any super chats
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: going all the way back to the beginning, so that
- 2:06:48Speaker 1: will be it. Thanks everybody for listening, and thanks to
- 2:06:53Speaker 1: my all my co hosts for going over this weird
- 2:06:55Speaker 1: article with me, and uh thanks again to Brian for
- 2:07:00Speaker 1: going late again night all.
- 2:07:04Speaker 2: See you next Thursday. H
