Latest / The Slippery Slope / Target is the Victim?
Transcript
- 0:28it down. Hi, I'm Jay felon.
- 0:32Thank you for listening to the slippery slope and according to
- 0:35the slippery slope. Well, sorry, speaking of
- 0:39slippery slope, what I mean to say according to Collins Collins
- 0:44Dictionary online. So slippery slope would mean in
- 0:52American English. A course or situation regarded
- 0:56as either easily or inevitably. Leading to further decline or
- 1:03deterioration deterioration. You get that a course or
- 1:09situation regarded as easily or inevitably leading to further
- 1:13decline, or deterioration. And then, this is where you see
- 1:20Society at the moment. I think it's been going there.
- 1:23What's been going there for quite a long time, but the slope
- 1:28has become slippery. Can you say that?
- 1:30The last, I would say the last two decades.
- 1:35Now, going into this third decade, now, I think there's
- 1:39been a very noticeable decline in society moral values.
- 1:44This kind of thing in since the year 2000.
- 1:49If you want to put a an exact time frame on it, that's just my
- 1:54opinion. It just seems to be a bit more
- 1:56noticeable. There are obviously things, you
- 1:59know, happening, previous decades and all that.
- 2:01But that's just what I think, you know another phrase.
- 2:05Or another going from The Columns dictionary.
- 2:07The phrase, if someone is on a slippery slope, they are
- 2:09involved in a course of action. That is difficult to stop and
- 2:12that will eventually lead to failure or trouble.
- 2:17I think. So, the reason why I'm talking
- 2:20about all this, there's Ben A lot of talk the last glass week
- 2:25or so about what's happening, especially in the state.
- 2:28So, see it. And I've been In some ways, I've
- 2:31been avoiding talking about what's happening in America.
- 2:34Something's coming up because so much discussion goes on about
- 2:37what happens in America all this stuff.
- 2:40And you know, we see the same we see similar things happening in
- 2:43Australia but slightly different tangents sometimes.
- 2:49Slightly different. So I try and talk about what's
- 2:51happening in Australia, more than just, what's happening in
- 2:54the states and that but I will really would like to talk about
- 2:57what is this article that came out today and it's talking about
- 3:00what's happening with the Target.
- 3:03Brand the Target stores. This headline it says actually
- 3:07I'll bring it up so you can see you can check it out with me.
- 3:15This headline here. Target removing some lgbtq
- 3:20merchandise following customer backlash.
- 3:24So this is from New York rajasa toggle trolled at its Pride
- 3:28collection at the start of maize pulling some products from its
- 3:31stores up to facing customer backlash.
- 3:34Now, part of the reason we want to talk about this as well,
- 3:36because we've seen a lot of this backlash Happening Here in
- 3:39Australia. Some of it has been put down to,
- 3:43well, they call. The far right?
- 3:46Yeah, not just in the States but here in Australia so they were
- 3:49referred to as the far right but also making a lot of reference
- 3:54to people these protesters being Christians.
- 3:59There was a recently a protest about a queen drag queen show
- 4:05and there were these so-called Christian groups they're
- 4:07protesting it funny enough but I did notice that these Christians
- 4:12were fairly fairly film Mouth people who were Christians and a
- 4:19little a little violence. Like I understand getting angry
- 4:23and I you know, I'm not sure if you were actually a Christian
- 4:29I'm not sure if it's the best. The best idea to be aggressive
- 4:35violently aggressive about things when you're protesting.
- 4:40It's definitely not a good witness.
- 4:41If you're going to be out there, swearing and carrying on.
- 4:44On. But I'm a Christian protester
- 4:47but if you and if this and you're a silly whatever whatever
- 4:52yeah come on you. If if you're a Christian maybe
- 4:57you should sort a few things out.
- 4:58First anyway so go on with this case o targets or because
- 5:02offering more than 3,000 products including clothing
- 5:07books music and Home Furnishings.
- 5:08As part of its Pride collection the items include gender fluid
- 5:12mugs, queer, all year. Crikey calendars and books for
- 5:17children. Aged 2 to 8 titled by binary
- 5:20Pride 123 and I'm not a girl now for 10K.
- 5:23And like I said, this is part of her is orange, talk about this
- 5:25is these companies and it's happening here in Australia,
- 5:30more and more. When we have our, these silly
- 5:33stupid drag queen Story Time. Rubbish, especially down in
- 5:38Victoria. It's all been all these like,
- 5:42even cafes Cafe. Phase.
- 5:45You know all the public libraries they're pushing the
- 5:48big drag queen shows for story. Time for children and putting
- 5:52on, not just drag queens, sitting there telling a lovely
- 5:55little story about how it's fantastic be queer, will leave
- 5:59out the, you know, the mutilation of the body and all
- 6:02that and the, the trauma that they go through, but we'll leave
- 6:07all that out. We'll just tell these nice
- 6:08little fairy tale stories and, and these Cafe.
- 6:14Is the government's councils that don't seem to understand
- 6:18that what people really have the issue with is that they are
- 6:22targeting children and yet they constantly play the victim.
- 6:26I'll look at us. We're just trying to share love
- 6:29and kindness and joy and blah blah blah.
- 6:31You can love whoever you want. We're trying to share diversity
- 6:34and I hear the slogan. Now we hear you.
- 6:37We see you. You are important while.
- 6:38Let's load of rubbish, but this is the kind of propaganda that
- 6:42is being pushed the actual. The opposite to truth and they
- 6:47don't end the constant victim. Playing we are the victim.
- 6:52Look at us. We're just putting these things
- 6:53out there. We just love.
- 6:55We just trying to trying to promote diversity.
- 7:02And we won't take we won't recognize the people.
- 7:05Don't want us targeting our children.
- 7:08That moment when I say us that this is what the lgbtq companies
- 7:12like targets, the drag queen Story Time people, the council's
- 7:17that want to put up the show, these shows the Cafe's they
- 7:20don't recognize the people. Don't want them targeting
- 7:23children. Stay away from the children.
- 7:26What people are trying to say And things get aggressive.
- 7:30So in this story here, Target again, playing the pole victim
- 7:36They say, since introducing this year's collection we've
- 7:38experienced threats impacting, our team's members safe sense,
- 7:43of safety and well-being, while at work given these volatile
- 7:46circumstances, we are making adjustments adjustments to our
- 7:49plans, including removing items that have been at the center of
- 7:53the most significant confrontational Behavior.
- 7:55The mini Annapolis. Minneapolis-based retailer said,
- 8:00target has been celebrating pride month for more than a
- 8:03decade, but this year's collection Section has led to an
- 8:06increase in confrontations between customers and employees
- 8:09and incidents of Pride, merchandise being thrown on the
- 8:13floor Target spokesperson. Kayla Castaneda said so and this
- 8:20is my whole point about playing the victim, their target might
- 8:24have been celebrating pride month and they would celebrate
- 8:26it. They do the same thing here in
- 8:28Australia by putting up posters or banners.
- 8:31Okay, but now they're putting out clothing specifically.
- 8:35Targeting children. And this is that they try and
- 8:40play. The victim was a whole.
- 8:41We doing a celebrating pride month.
- 8:43No, no. Now you're getting into what
- 8:46people perceive and I think rightly perceive as grooming
- 8:50children. That's what's that's what's
- 8:52happening. That's what people are getting
- 8:54so frustrated about and yet they want to play the victim.
- 8:58We just celebrating, as we've always done.
- 9:01Since the beginning of time. We celebrated Pride Anyway, so
- 9:06targets actions. Come on the heels of a
- 9:08conservative backlash against Bud Light.
- 9:11I won't go through all that, all that rubbish are.
- 9:14So the products targeted withdrawing are being removed
- 9:16from all that you are stores and from its website.
- 9:19While various Pride collection products are under a view, the
- 9:22only ones now being removed are the lgbtq brand Raylan now.
- 9:28I don't know if you've seen videos about this, but it's
- 9:30fairly disgusting and the gentleman.
- 9:32If you can call him that, who was behind this design, Ones is
- 9:38one of the evil dude. This explains why.
- 9:40So this brand has come under scrutiny for its association.
- 9:44With British designer. Eric Carnell Carnell has faced
- 9:47social media backlash for Designing merchandise with
- 9:51images of pentagrams horn, skulls and other satanic
- 9:54products and then he's gone and put them on childrenswear
- 9:57fantastic a search or L AB prowlin merchandise and Target
- 10:04showed zero results. Screenshots and posts on social
- 10:07media, show the target previously, sold the $25 slogan.
- 10:11Sweater with the words cure fan, transphobia, not trans people
- 10:17and an eighteen dollar to queer for here tote bag.
- 10:22Yeah, Target is also reviewing certain transgender swimsuits
- 10:27and children's merchandise. Destiny.
- 10:31The said, but no decision on these products has yet been made
- 10:35for Sample. A swimsuit sold in the women's
- 10:38section. I think, I think added ass out
- 10:44of sui there. There's a couple of different
- 10:47sports with sportswear companies that have gone down this road of
- 10:51making what they call women's swimwear.
- 10:55But made from women, what they make all women with male
- 11:00genitalia, which in my limited understanding of biology,
- 11:05because I'm not a doctor, that's just a boy, it's just a man.
- 11:09It's not anyway. So these are swimsuits older
- 11:13women sections, come on, scrutiny for the wait.
- 11:16It's fit was described as tuck friendly highlighted.
- 11:21Its ability to supposedly tuck male genitalia.
- 11:27Makes you cringe done it. So Fox News this ability that
- 11:30these companies have like Target like you know, they're Bud Light
- 11:34Company. And like what we see here in
- 11:36Australia with our councils, these cafes that insisting on
- 11:40putting on Drag queen shows, the Victorian government's, I'll put
- 11:48up another video later. Just highlighting some of the
- 11:51outrageous things that is happening as sneeze drag shows.
- 11:54And yet we have the Victorian Premier.
- 11:57Daniel Andrews standing up giving different speeches
- 12:01saying, you know, this is he is targeting people.
- 12:04That would dare dare protest. These drag queen shows calling
- 12:11them as as calling them people of who are bigots saying that
- 12:16people full of hate and the true people the good people the
- 12:20people are full of love other people who are the drag queens
- 12:24or the people who try to put on these shows the treat the people
- 12:27who are the LG from the lgbtq community who are just trying to
- 12:33get the word out there on diversity and how wonderful and
- 12:36great and they just sharing love.
- 12:38They're the true. Good people of the world this
- 12:43weird. Message can you call it a
- 12:48message? It's this ability to completely
- 12:51ignore the truth. I've been talking about
- 12:54gaslighting. They're gaslighting everyone.
- 12:57They ignore the truth twist the truth around play the victim
- 13:03constantly. They are the victim ignore the
- 13:07true feelings and ignore the true reasons why people are
- 13:10protesting why people don't want this these products.
- 13:16Hoisted hoisted into the view of our children, why they don't
- 13:22want these companies targeting our children?
- 13:25While they don't want cafes putting on drag queen shows
- 13:28specifically for children twerking teaching children how
- 13:33to twerk which the it doesn't even look good on adults.
- 13:37It shouldn't be happening with children.
- 13:40And yet they turn around and play the victim saying, or, like
- 13:43targets that we've been doing celebrating Pride for for more
- 13:47than a decade. What's possibly wrong with it?
- 13:50Now just because we've got just because we've got t-shirts with
- 13:56satanic satanic pictures on it. Supporting Satanic rituals and
- 14:03trans. Transgender ideology.
- 14:08We are the victims. You are all bigots full of hate.
- 14:13And we see it's like I said, not just in these companies in the
- 14:16states not just what's happening in the states.
- 14:18The same thing is happening worldwide, the same thing is
- 14:21happening here in Australia, playing the victim, when you're
- 14:24not really the victim, And that is the slippery slope.
- 14:29That's what we have seen for a long time.
- 14:32Now this is what you see when you have a society that
- 14:35constantly denies and I've said it before, I'll say it again.
- 14:38I'm not going to stop saying it just because people message me
- 14:42and say stop talking about the Bible, whatever.
- 14:46The Bible has told us the truth from the very start.
- 14:50The reason why I talk about the Bible because the Bible
- 14:52predicted things thousands of years ago, some things have
- 14:56already happened. like, Israel being reformed 2000 years after
- 15:02okay just one that's just a small miracle, a small one.
- 15:06Something else is the Bible predicted?
- 15:09Well the Bible predicted how the world is going to end.
- 15:14It predicted that we're going to have a Global Financial collapse
- 15:18inoculation of the financial system.
- 15:20Basically it predicted that we're going to have end up with
- 15:23a one world government and one person trying to rule this world
- 15:27and we can see all these things happening.
- 15:29And yet, we still try and deny it and we still don't want to
- 15:32hear the truth. People still write in and say,
- 15:35hey, don't talk about the Bible. Even though the Bible is, the
- 15:40only the only book ever. That's written down the truth
- 15:44and it's actually come to pass. The Bible talks about how
- 15:51mankind. Wants to deny God wants to chase
- 15:56after its own lusts, its own selfish, sinful desires and the
- 16:01more you go down that slope, that's slippery slope.
- 16:03The more you deny God and want to run after your own filth,
- 16:08your own desires, the worse off, you and Society will become,
- 16:14that's not my opinion, that's what the Bible's saying.
- 16:21My opinion is we should all be reading the Bible and taking
- 16:23notes of what it's saying. My opinion is these companies
- 16:28like targets these councils, like what we've seen around here
- 16:31in Australia, governments like Victorian government, the
- 16:34premier Daniel Andrews like to twist the truth, which funny
- 16:39enough is I think something that the Bible said would happen, you
- 16:42know, calling evil good and good evil.
- 16:46There will be will become a time when that will happen and this
- 16:49is what's happening. Twisting the truth, playing the
- 16:52victim. And put themselves on the
- 16:57slippery slope. I'm sorry Target.
- 16:59But yeah, you might you may have been.
- 17:02You may have been celebrating Pride for over a decade and this
- 17:06is the slippery slope argument. You put yourself on that that
- 17:11decision to be celebrating a falsehood celebrating Ally
- 17:16celebrating a sin pride is a sin.
- 17:20That's put you on that slope one bad decision, and you continue
- 17:25to go down and down and down, and down.
- 17:29That's my opinion. What's happening?
- 17:30Stop playing the victim Target. The company start reading your
- 17:36Bible. Anyway, thanks for listening to
- 17:40the slippery slope next week. I'm going to have Pastor Patrick
- 17:46Russell, he's going to be on the program.
- 17:48What we want to do a quick want to say a quick like a short
- 17:53discussion. I want to get him to talk about
- 17:58Pride. The biblical meaning of Pride as
- 18:02opposed to more. Sorry I'll put this way the
- 18:05world says this is pride the world celebrates Pride.
- 18:10This is what the world says about Pride.
- 18:13As opposed to, this is what the Bible says about Pride.
- 18:16This is what God has said about Pride.
- 18:21Two, completely different definitions, I suppose you put
- 18:27it as so I want to get him to explain just quickly explain
- 18:30what it is. And when I would kind of talking
- 18:36back and forward and he said, you know what, specifically
- 18:39would, you know, am I asking? I said I just want something
- 18:43straight to the point and blunt blunt.
- 18:47I don't think it's time to, to dance around dance, around the
- 18:52meaning of things anymore. I think you just have to be
- 18:54blunt. This is what it is.
- 18:57This is what's wrong. This is what the Bible says.
- 19:01So that'll be next week. Thanks for listening to the
- 19:04slippery slope.
