Latest / Honey Badger Radio / The SHOCKING Truth About MEN's Reactions to HUMILIATION
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Okay, and we're live. Hello everybody, and welcome back to
- 0:04Speaker 1: Honey Badger Radio. My name is Brian Allison, and this
- 0:07Speaker 1: is red Chill Cinema. We're finally doing those again. Men.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Don't you dare get mad at women who humiliate you?
- 0:15Speaker 2: Shall I explain the title?
- 0:18Speaker 1: Yeah? Go ahead, explain the title? Yeah?
- 0:21Speaker 2: All right. So essentially, I read this article from I
- 0:27Speaker 2: think it's Hollywood Watch about the.
- 0:30Speaker 1: Latest film industry watch.
- 0:32Speaker 2: It's called Film Industry Watch, and it's about this latest
- 0:36Speaker 2: trend in media of how would you describe it? Essentially,
- 0:41Speaker 2: it is a condemnation of men, either their incompetent or
- 0:46Speaker 2: their predatory and the climax is that women kill them
- 0:51Speaker 2: as you do. Right, It's sort of like basically birth
- 0:54Speaker 2: of a Nation, except feminists. So it's sort of like
- 0:58Speaker 2: that the whole thing where Helen pluck Rowse and and
- 1:01Speaker 2: her co conspirators published Mind COUMP, except they changed, they
- 1:07Speaker 2: changed jew demand, and they got it published in a
- 1:11Speaker 2: modern feminist academic paper. Well, all of this cinema is
- 1:15Speaker 2: basically just birth of the nation. And if you don't
- 1:19Speaker 2: know what birth of the nation is, it basically revolves
- 1:21Speaker 2: around the lynching of a black man who is predatory
- 1:24Speaker 2: towards a white woman. And yeah, that's that's media. That's
- 1:27Speaker 2: modern media. They just they just do that show that
- 1:30Speaker 2: that that movie over and over and over again, except
- 1:35Speaker 2: the black person as a man, the KKK as women,
- 1:39Speaker 2: and there you go, and never do you actually question
- 1:42Speaker 2: the premise that men are uniquely sexually predatory. But if
- 1:46Speaker 2: men are upset over this, this is this is the
- 1:49Speaker 2: final you know what. Actually that's spoilers. But the title,
- 1:53Speaker 2: the title is actually spoilers to the final conclusion of
- 1:56Speaker 2: the article, which I'll leave as just a exercise for
- 1:59Speaker 2: the viewer because I don't want to spoil it. But
- 2:02Speaker 2: I think you might know where we're all leading up
- 2:04Speaker 2: to in this article. But you know, let's allow a
- 2:08Speaker 2: little bit of anticipation.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Yeah, don't bury the lead to. Yes, let's get into
- 2:14Speaker 1: the thing. So I just want to tell you guys
- 2:17Speaker 1: before we start. YouTube has done something and it is
- 2:23Speaker 1: affecting our vertical stream. So yesterday, I'm just giving a
- 2:26Speaker 1: little bit of back source. You understand where this comes from,
- 2:29Speaker 1: because I didn't do this, and that's the most important
- 2:31Speaker 1: thing you guys understand is that I didn't do this.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Yesterday when I was hosting the news show. YouTube allowed
- 2:37Speaker 1: me to set up the vertical and horizontal streams the
- 2:40Speaker 1: way I always do, but they now have a new
- 2:45Speaker 1: mode in their studio where you can send out a
- 2:49Speaker 1: vertical and a horizontal simultaneously under one backroom instance in
- 2:54Speaker 1: the studio, and so yesterday I didn't do that. I
- 2:57Speaker 1: put them on separate streams. But the problem with the
- 3:02Speaker 1: horizontal was that it didn't actually show up in a
- 3:08Speaker 1: It didn't show up as a as a vertical. I'm sorry.
- 3:10Speaker 1: The problem with the vertical was it didn't come out
- 3:12Speaker 1: as a vertical, so it wasn't reaching people on their
- 3:15Speaker 1: mobile devices. It instead came out as a horizontal where
- 3:19Speaker 1: most of it was blacked out except for the vertical
- 3:21Speaker 1: section of the video. Kind of like if you put
- 3:24Speaker 1: out like a let's say you put out a short
- 3:27Speaker 1: and it's too long for shorts, so what shorts. It
- 3:30Speaker 1: doesn't make it into a short, it just makes it
- 3:32Speaker 1: into a standard video. And so that's what happened yesterday,
- 3:36Speaker 1: and I didn't I saw that, but I was like, well,
- 3:38Speaker 1: I don't know what to do about it. So today
- 3:40Speaker 1: I thought I would try to do the thing that
- 3:42Speaker 1: YouTube was suggesting I do, which is to essentially create
- 3:45Speaker 1: a simulcast of a horizontal and a vertical. And I
- 3:49Speaker 1: even tried to plug in the stream key from the vertical,
- 3:56Speaker 1: which I was able to grab on its own and
- 3:58Speaker 1: drop it into my vertical plug in over here on
- 4:01Speaker 1: obs in the hopes that it would come out as
- 4:03Speaker 1: a vertical. But it's not. So we don't have We
- 4:07Speaker 1: don't really have a vertical stream. We have a vertical
- 4:09Speaker 1: that is just like the center of the horizontal. Does
- 4:12Speaker 1: that make sense? Yeah?
- 4:15Speaker 2: Yeah, So so basically YouTube has just screwed the shorts streaming.
- 4:21Speaker 1: For now unless I figure out a workaround. Yeah, I'm
- 4:24Speaker 1: sure that there are people working on it, because this
- 4:26Speaker 1: literally happened last night, like right before the news show.
- 4:30Speaker 1: They changed it, of course.
- 4:35Speaker 2: So we don't where this won't actually end up being
- 4:37Speaker 2: a short or is.
- 4:38Speaker 1: There it's going out, it's going out on the shorts,
- 4:42Speaker 1: but it's not it's not the layout that we have. Yeah,
- 4:45Speaker 1: I see it, let me see if let me see
- 4:50Speaker 1: how it looks. I don't know how it's showing up here,
- 4:52Speaker 1: but I'm just letting you know that, Okay, But I.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Don't see an actual instance.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Or yeah, there isn't an instance but for some okay, so,
- 5:00Speaker 1: but it must be that it's streaming to mobile devices,
- 5:05Speaker 1: but it's streaming this stream instead. And it did say,
- 5:09Speaker 1: do you want to do vertical and horizontal? So I said, okay,
- 5:11Speaker 1: let's see what it looks like. And this is what
- 5:13Speaker 1: it looks like. So and it's weird because it was
- 5:18Speaker 1: it's just this channel at least like of the two
- 5:20Speaker 1: that I tried. I tried my channel earlier today and
- 5:24Speaker 1: I was able to do the vertical horizontal as far
- 5:27Speaker 1: as I can tell, and there were no issues. But
- 5:30Speaker 1: then again I didn't check, so maybe I should do
- 5:33Speaker 1: that anyway. I'm just letting you know. The vertical is
- 5:36Speaker 1: out there, but it's not. It doesn't look like what we.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Have set up here, so okay, so good grief. And
- 5:45Speaker 2: the vertical is where we make our shorts too, yeah,
- 5:49Speaker 2: goddamn YouTube. And of course it's just this channel that's
- 5:54Speaker 2: supposedly having this problem.
- 5:56Speaker 1: Well I mean I didn't it might not just be
- 5:59Speaker 1: this Channe. I'm just letting you know that, uh, this
- 6:03Speaker 1: is like what we're dealing with right now.
- 6:04Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, all right, Well, well I guess we'll
- 6:09Speaker 2: figure out I'll see if.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'll have to find a fix, see
- 6:13Speaker 1: if anyone, because I know a lot of streamers that
- 6:17Speaker 1: have been using this tool, this this uh set up
- 6:20Speaker 1: for a while, and they must also.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Be well, it was just fine, it was working just fine.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
- 6:28Speaker 2: I'm I wonder if this is an effort for YouTube
- 6:31Speaker 2: to be able to control who is able to stream
- 6:33Speaker 2: on the shorts, because of course, we had a whole
- 6:37Speaker 2: freakin' workflow going. We streamed a shorts. My husband Jonathan
- 6:41Speaker 2: would cut the shorts up and publish them, and now
- 6:44Speaker 2: that's in jeopardy because of YouTube's arbitrary changes.
- 6:48Speaker 1: Yeah, well let me, I'll show you. I'll show you something, okay,
- 6:52Speaker 1: just so you can see what what what it is.
- 6:54Speaker 1: So this is the stream I did today, mm hmm.
- 6:58Speaker 1: And the this is the vertical stream. So if you
- 7:02Speaker 1: if you don't, if you can't tell right off the bat,
- 7:05Speaker 1: it's not laid out in the standard shorts layout. It's
- 7:09Speaker 1: actually just a regular horizontal stream. Do you see that?
- 7:13Speaker 1: And that's what happened today when I did a stream,
- 7:16Speaker 1: So that means that we could do it this way
- 7:20Speaker 1: in the future. And then what Jonathan's gonna have to
- 7:22Speaker 1: do is basically just like you know, use this layout
- 7:26Speaker 1: and just crop out like the black parts and make
- 7:29Speaker 1: the shorts that way. So but that's what it's gonna.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Look like, so the hell YouTube? Yeah anyway, Jesus Christ, Honestly,
- 7:43Speaker 2: it might be worth it to just maybe change this
- 7:45Speaker 2: horizontal layout a bit like maybe look at like the
- 7:48Speaker 2: way the Lotus eaters do it, and then just use that.
- 7:51Speaker 2: If the shorts have gone to crap on YouTube, why
- 7:54Speaker 2: would they change something that was working? God damn it.
- 8:00Speaker 2: This was really irritating because it changes everything downstream of
- 8:04Speaker 2: this stream and we were doing pretty good with the shorts.
- 8:08Speaker 2: All right, well let's let's let's get to the meat
- 8:10Speaker 2: of the matter.
- 8:10Speaker 1: But yeah, we I don't think we can fix this
- 8:13Speaker 1: right now. I'm just letting you all know that the
- 8:14Speaker 1: YouTube change something, so we'll figure it out later. But
- 8:18Speaker 1: in the meantime, so we're gonna be looking at the
- 8:22Speaker 1: cinema's formula for awards and festivals the humiliation and vlification
- 8:27Speaker 1: of men.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm just I'm just annoyed that I'll just relax
- 8:34Speaker 2: out the annoyance.
- 8:36Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I mean, yeah, we can't. It's you Brian,
- 8:41Speaker 1: I no, I know, I'm not saying that. I'm just
- 8:42Speaker 1: saying there's nothing we can do about it right now.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, Okay, let's let's do it, all right,
- 8:49Speaker 3: maybe Rumbo will start doing vertical streams or doing the
- 8:53Speaker 3: same kind of business, all right, Should I just read
- 8:57Speaker 3: this then?
- 8:58Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, let's read it. I mean, what I was
- 9:00Speaker 2: going to suggest is we only read a little bit
- 9:03Speaker 2: and then have a reply, because that makes better shorts,
- 9:06Speaker 2: having whole paragraphs, and then then the short just makes
- 9:09Speaker 2: shorts of the the article without including us. So we're
- 9:13Speaker 2: gonna have to stop more often. And if we do
- 9:16Speaker 2: that format, of course, I don't know if we're gonna
- 9:18Speaker 2: even be able to do shorts from this because of
- 9:20Speaker 2: the YouTube changes. But so, yeah, let's just read a
- 9:24Speaker 2: sentence and then we'll discuss it, okay, or sentence or two.
- 9:30Speaker 1: So the war, so that this is a I guess
- 9:35Speaker 1: this is like an analysis of this trend that's been
- 9:38Speaker 1: going on forever. And I guess that, you know, maybe
- 9:41Speaker 1: it's an admission. I don't really know. So the war
- 9:46Speaker 1: on men, how cinema became a weapon in the cultural
- 9:49Speaker 1: backlash against men and masculinity. Guest post by concern filmmaker
- 9:54Speaker 1: and fi W staff. That's Film Industry Watch staff. Do
- 10:00Speaker 1: you have anything to say about that? No, let's keep going,
- 10:05Speaker 1: all right, I will say I will say something though,
- 10:09Speaker 1: real quick about this. It's interesting that it's framed as
- 10:12Speaker 1: backlash against men. Backlash for what?
- 10:17Speaker 2: Yeah, for what?
- 10:18Speaker 1: That suggests a counter attack or like a defensive maneuver, right,
- 10:23Speaker 1: backlash for what? That's all I would.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Ask, Yeah, because they have this premise that men shot first. Yes,
- 10:30Speaker 2: and yet again, within the entire premise that men shot first,
- 10:35Speaker 2: every time we point out that men enforced sacrifice on
- 10:40Speaker 2: other men that they didn't do to women, they say, oh,
- 10:42Speaker 2: well men did that. Yes, that's the point. You are
- 10:45Speaker 2: asserting that men constructed a society where women bear the
- 10:49Speaker 2: brunt of the sacrifices for men's benefit. So every instance
- 10:54Speaker 2: where we point out that no, actually it's men enforcing
- 10:56Speaker 2: sacrifice on other men is a counter exis to your assertion,
- 11:02Speaker 2: and you can't dismiss it by saying, well, it's just
- 11:04Speaker 2: patriarchy backfire where men are doing it to each other. Right,
- 11:08Speaker 2: there was no first volley by men nowhere in history,
- 11:13Speaker 2: if you actually look at it outside the feminist framework
- 11:17Speaker 2: which enforces its own viewpoint on the evidence and the
- 11:21Speaker 2: assumption that and then looks at the enforcement of its
- 11:24Speaker 2: own viewpoint on the evidence and says, yes, that proves
- 11:27Speaker 2: our viewpoint. No it doesn't. That's completely sylopsistic. It's eating
- 11:32Speaker 2: your own ass in terms of the science. But if
- 11:36Speaker 2: you look at actually look at history, men enforced sacrifice
- 11:40Speaker 2: on other men in order to maintain society. They enforced
- 11:44Speaker 2: sacrifice in war in order to protect society and women's interests.
- 11:49Speaker 2: This is something they don't mention. They enforced sacrifice on
- 11:52Speaker 2: men to police other men, to make sure they abided
- 11:56Speaker 2: by the rules of society right throughout history, and that
- 12:01Speaker 2: sacrifice sometimes came with a greater say in government, and
- 12:06Speaker 2: the government was about sacrificing. So men were doing the sacrificing,
- 12:10Speaker 2: and oh my god, they had greater say in the sacrifice. Jeez,
- 12:15Speaker 2: what a what a an onerous and position on women.
- 12:19Speaker 2: So they say that that men shot first. This is
- 12:22Speaker 2: a backlash. Men shot first. Men never shot first, all right.
- 12:27Speaker 2: They just tried to construct a society of safety, security
- 12:30Speaker 2: and provision for everyone. Yep, okay, all right.
- 12:37Speaker 1: M In one jarring scene of promising young women twenty twenty.
- 12:42Speaker 1: A young man gently lays an apparently drunk woman on
- 12:46Speaker 1: a bed and begins unbuttoning her dress. You're okay, You're safe,
- 12:51Speaker 1: he whispers, a grotesque reassurance, even as he pulls down
- 12:55Speaker 1: her underwear without consent. Suddenly, she sits bolt upright, stone cold, sober.
- 13:01Speaker 1: I said, what are you doing, she demands, fixing him
- 13:04Speaker 1: with an icy stare. The predator freezes, terrified at being caught. Okay, shock,
- 13:10Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm sorry.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Go ahead, yeah, okay again, don't go too far. I
- 13:15Speaker 2: know if I put my hand up like this. Let's
- 13:17Speaker 2: just go into the actual text of the thing again.
- 13:22Speaker 2: This generation of women is on track, well, actually has
- 13:29Speaker 2: is already exceeded the violent sexual predatoriness of any generation
- 13:36Speaker 2: and the current generation of men, at least according to
- 13:38Speaker 2: the millennial shift, which has now been replicated at least
- 13:43Speaker 2: two times, possibly more by the research who's been looking
- 13:45Speaker 2: into You don't know what the millennial shift is. It
- 13:48Speaker 2: is that millennial women and probably zoomer women, so younger
- 13:52Speaker 2: women are engaging in sexual violence at rates never seen before.
- 14:00Speaker 2: And what do I mean by sexual violence? I mean
- 14:03Speaker 2: use of drugs, I mean use of weapons, knives, guns,
- 14:08Speaker 2: use of credible threats like if you don't submit to me,
- 14:11Speaker 2: I am going to accuse you of rape. Right, They're
- 14:14Speaker 2: doing this at incredible rates. So this generation of female
- 14:20Speaker 2: cinema goers and female cinematographers and scriptwriters and directors who
- 14:24Speaker 2: creating this shlock. They are the rapist group of people
- 14:29Speaker 2: on the motherfucking planet in history. And the funny thing
- 14:34Speaker 2: is that men are willing to acknowledge their role in
- 14:39Speaker 2: sexual violence, but women aren't, so they create this exploitation
- 14:44Speaker 2: of cinema that completely distorts the reality of it, and
- 14:50Speaker 2: that just put pins it on men. It's just men, right,
- 14:54Speaker 2: It's just men who do this. Meanwhile, it's actually becoming
- 14:59Speaker 2: majority women. Be behavior unbelievable, isn't it. I wonder if
- 15:04Speaker 2: as long.
- 15:04Speaker 1: As we've been measuring it it may have been an issue.
- 15:06Speaker 2: For it may have been, but it may also be
- 15:10Speaker 2: the fact that this generation of women has the worst
- 15:14Speaker 2: attitudes towards male victims since they kept track, and also
- 15:18Speaker 2: has the worst expectation of sexual responsibility like and and
- 15:25Speaker 2: also has a narrative that they don't have to take
- 15:27Speaker 2: sexual responsibility because the only sexual predators are men. So
- 15:32Speaker 2: it's entirely possible that feminist and yes, it's feminists who
- 15:35Speaker 2: constructed this, maybe with the you know, the handmaiden of
- 15:39Speaker 2: patriarchy as feminism's handmaiden, they've constructed this what with married
- 15:46Speaker 2: costs is the originator of the one in four women
- 15:49Speaker 2: will be uh raped or attempted rape and saying that
- 15:53Speaker 2: made to penetrate is taken out of the definition of
- 15:58Speaker 2: forced sex. That is a I'm enforcing a man to
- 16:01Speaker 2: have sex is no longer considered rape in the center
- 16:04Speaker 2: of disease control statistics. Right, So that really mutters muddies
- 16:09Speaker 2: the water with all of this. Okay, and I don't
- 16:12Speaker 2: even have feminists arguing that that shouldn't be considered rape,
- 16:16Speaker 2: this shouldn't be rape, can only be a male crime? Well,
- 16:20Speaker 2: what a fatuous Yeah, if I definitionally recast rape is
- 16:25Speaker 2: only a female crime, then I'm gonna find that only
- 16:27Speaker 2: women commit it. It's such a fatuous game of cards,
- 16:33Speaker 2: game of like shells definitional shells. It's and but ultimately
- 16:41Speaker 2: feminism has constructed this attitude towards rape. That means that
- 16:46Speaker 2: feminism has constructed a rape culture targeting male victims. And
- 16:52Speaker 2: what a surprise. As a result of that, that what
- 16:55Speaker 2: feminists constructed, there's an increasing rape, rape of male victims
- 17:02Speaker 2: by women. You're giving them a plausible excuse, they're you're
- 17:06Speaker 2: telling them data. You don't have to take responsibility for
- 17:08Speaker 2: your predatory behavior because it's categorically different. It's not rape,
- 17:14Speaker 2: it's it's a a surprise sex know we wanted even
- 17:21Speaker 2: if it was at knife point, and that this isn't.
- 17:25Speaker 2: And so this whole cinematic universe, this extended cinematic universe
- 17:31Speaker 2: of rape, is a complete fiction that these women have constructed. Meanwhile,
- 17:35Speaker 2: they're probably complicit and doing a lot of sexually predatory
- 17:39Speaker 2: behavior themselves. Yeah, okay, but but it's a backlash everyone.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Men have a having a backlash. Okay, alright, women are
- 17:53Speaker 2: having a backlash. Men shot first.
- 17:58Speaker 1: This moment of tables turning shock encapsulates a striking new
- 18:01Speaker 1: archetype in today's critically acclaimed cinema, Men as predatory or
- 18:06Speaker 1: pathetic figures and women as their righteous reckoners or survivors.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Don't think that's new. I think that that's been going
- 18:15Speaker 1: on a long time. I remember. I mean, granted, it's
- 18:18Speaker 1: been a lot more like in your face these days,
- 18:20Speaker 1: but there was a grindhouse film in the nineteen seventies
- 18:24Speaker 1: called I Spit on Your Grave, which was a bunch
- 18:27Speaker 1: of like feminist revenge porn on men. I've never seen
- 18:31Speaker 1: the movie, but I could tell you that that and
- 18:33Speaker 1: it was a bit exploitive too, which is weird. So
- 18:36Speaker 1: it was kind of like part like borderline pornography, part
- 18:41Speaker 1: violent feminist revenge fantasy. And that's from the nineteen seventies,
- 18:44Speaker 1: so this is not like a new thing. It's just
- 18:47Speaker 1: kind of very common.
- 18:49Speaker 2: What It's just that this is now everywhere, Yes, but
- 18:53Speaker 2: that used to be grindhouse and you'd watch it in
- 18:55Speaker 2: like the sticky floor theater on the corner. Yeah, yeah, right,
- 18:59Speaker 2: this is now.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Yeah. But also like like no, I think that I
- 19:08Speaker 1: don't know, Like, if you look at the way that
- 19:13Speaker 1: men have been portrayed in film historically, a typically you get,
- 19:19Speaker 1: you know, maybe a heroic male figure in in a
- 19:22Speaker 1: you know, in a story, but there will be a
- 19:24Speaker 1: lot of really awful male figures too, and they're often
- 19:28Speaker 1: you know, like be portrayed as rapists that just are
- 19:31Speaker 1: like animalistic and violent, like they can't control themselves, and
- 19:35Speaker 1: the heroic male figure deals with them. But it's still
- 19:38Speaker 1: framed in this kind of like, you know, there are
- 19:41Speaker 1: only a few good men, and the and the and
- 19:43Speaker 1: these are the examples of that, right muh, I mean,
- 19:47Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe I'm over analyzing that, but yeah,
- 19:50Speaker 1: it's definitely gotten a lot worse. In fact, it's basically
- 19:52Speaker 1: impossible to make good male characters these days.
- 19:56Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 19:57Speaker 1: Anyway, from indie festival ar links to Hollywood blockbusters, a
- 20:01Speaker 1: growing roster of films is casting masculinity in a harsh light,
- 20:04Speaker 1: depicting men as abusive, weak, absent, or broken, while positioning
- 20:08Speaker 1: women as victims turned avengers or the moral centers of
- 20:12Speaker 1: the story. And of course, the world is nothing if
- 20:15Speaker 1: not black and white. Why wrestle with the messy complexity
- 20:18Speaker 1: of gender dynamics when you can flatten it into the
- 20:21Speaker 1: simplest cliche imaginable.
- 20:25Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, it's more complex than even this person is
- 20:30Speaker 2: letting on. It is time for male rape victims to
- 20:34Speaker 2: be recognized. We did everything feminists wanted. And I've been
- 20:40Speaker 2: having arguments with feminists online, okay, And I point out
- 20:46Speaker 2: that if you're going to use the statistics on conviction,
- 20:49Speaker 2: then rape is very rare. Okay, If We're only using
- 20:54Speaker 2: the statistics on conviction for pet like who perpetrates, So
- 20:59Speaker 2: it may men are like ninety eight percent of the
- 21:01Speaker 2: convictions and women are two percent. We're going to use
- 21:05Speaker 2: those stats. Then rape is extremely rare, and you can't
- 21:09Speaker 2: say that this is a society wide phenomenon that men
- 21:14Speaker 2: are using to uphold patriarchy, or even that people don't
- 21:18Speaker 2: take it seriously. They take it very seriously.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Right.
- 21:24Speaker 2: Once, once get rape gets to the point of being charged,
- 21:28Speaker 2: it is as likely as any other violent crime to
- 21:32Speaker 2: end up in a conviction in the US, and it's
- 21:34Speaker 2: far more likely in the UK. Right, So this is
- 21:38Speaker 2: not a crime that people do not take seriously if
- 21:41Speaker 2: you look at conviction rates, right, And feminists want to
- 21:46Speaker 2: look at conviction rates for who is doing the raping,
- 21:50Speaker 2: But then they want to look at the surveys for
- 21:54Speaker 2: how prevalent it is, how little society takes responsibility for it,
- 21:59Speaker 2: how who rapes end up in convictions. But the unfortunate
- 22:03Speaker 2: problem for feminists is that when you look at the surveys,
- 22:08Speaker 2: you look at the most accurate surveys, women are almost
- 22:14Speaker 2: at parody in terms of sexual violence as men. Okay,
- 22:19Speaker 2: like it's slightly less for women. But then we also
- 22:21Speaker 2: have to consider the underreporting of male victims. So women
- 22:25Speaker 2: are doing a lot. They have probably half of all
- 22:30Speaker 2: sexually sexual violence, to take responsibile responsibility for themselves. If
- 22:36Speaker 2: we look at the surveys, which the feminists want to
- 22:38Speaker 2: point to to say that society isn't taking rape seriously.
- 22:42Speaker 2: While if you're going to point to the surveys and
- 22:44Speaker 2: say that, then it's time to take male victims of
- 22:49Speaker 2: female sexual assaulters seriously, it's time. It's their time now, feminists,
- 22:55Speaker 2: and they don't want to do that, so they play
- 22:58Speaker 2: this ping pong game, this ping game. Oh, society isn't
- 23:02Speaker 2: taking rape seriously because look at the surveys. But the
- 23:06Speaker 2: surveys say that women are equally likely to rape. Well,
- 23:10Speaker 2: don't look at that, look at the conviction stats. And
- 23:16Speaker 2: it's infuriating, and that that is the foundation of this drek.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Think about it, Remember me too? Where were the men?
- 23:25Speaker 2: Where were the male victims? Mm?
- 23:29Speaker 1: Hm?
- 23:30Speaker 2: They were ignored, they were marginalized out of stories of
- 23:33Speaker 2: men who brought up their victimization by women, and women
- 23:37Speaker 2: would shut them down. Feminists would shout them down and say,
- 23:40Speaker 2: you're derailing this is women's moment. When is men's moments? Huh?
- 23:46Speaker 2: When are women gonna step up and say, hey, actually,
- 23:48Speaker 2: we have a certain amount of sexually predatory behavior to
- 23:52Speaker 2: take responsibility for. Maybe we should stop stemming with this
- 23:56Speaker 2: sexploitation and all of this revenge fantasy and start taking
- 24:01Speaker 2: some responsibility for our own behavior. What does that happen?
- 24:07Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's see so abusive week or absent
- 24:16Speaker 1: the new male stereotype on screen. Recent award winning and
- 24:20Speaker 1: festival circuit films have not been subtle about the state
- 24:23Speaker 1: of their men. In Eliza Hitman's drama Never Rarely Sometimes
- 24:28Speaker 1: Always twenty twenty, the men orbiting seventeen year old Autumn
- 24:32Speaker 1: are all, with no exception, either useless or predatory. At
- 24:37Speaker 1: our supermarket job, the sleazy manager discusses Autumn's illness and leers,
- 24:41Speaker 1: it's really just a few more hours you can do it. Besides,
- 24:45Speaker 1: I get lonely if you left align dripping with inappropriate undertone. God,
- 24:51Speaker 1: I couldn't want. These are the movies that win awards,
- 24:54Speaker 1: By the way, it's this stuff, you know, that gets
- 24:57Speaker 1: praised and an it's interesting that we're gonna be looking
- 25:02Speaker 1: a little bit at this Briarny Claire video. It's exactly
- 25:05Speaker 1: the kind of shit that people like priority Claire will
- 25:08Speaker 1: reference as data. Did you see this move? Allow me
- 25:11Speaker 1: to present you exhibit a this movie as proof of men. Right?
- 25:17Speaker 2: They construct in reality? Yeah, and they reference that constructed
- 25:21Speaker 2: reality is evidence of reality. It's insane.
- 25:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 25:25Speaker 2: And again, women apparently cannot take responsibility for their half
- 25:29Speaker 2: of sexual violence, and for some reason this is a backlash.
- 25:37Speaker 2: Men took responsibility, right, they continuously take responsibility. Why was
- 25:43Speaker 2: that frenchwoman Gizelle Pellicot? Why is it that she is
- 25:49Speaker 2: not right now continuing to be sexually assaulted in the
- 25:54Speaker 2: three days a week, three or four days a week
- 25:56Speaker 2: that she loses, which I don't know how many people
- 25:59Speaker 2: that actually applies to. I don't know how many people
- 26:01Speaker 2: can just lose three or four days a week worth
- 26:04Speaker 2: of time and just not even question it. But anyway,
- 26:07Speaker 2: she would still be sexually assaulted in her three or
- 26:11Speaker 2: four days of blackout if it weren't for the French
- 26:15Speaker 2: police men who apparently were more on the ball about
- 26:21Speaker 2: her safety than she was found out about all of
- 26:25Speaker 2: this and pursued bringing those men to justice. But what
- 26:29Speaker 2: do we focus on. We don't focus on the fact
- 26:34Speaker 2: that without those men, God Gazelle Pelicott would still be
- 26:39Speaker 2: in the situation she is in. We focus on the
- 26:41Speaker 2: men who did it right. But here's the thing men
- 26:46Speaker 2: have demonstrated throughout history, a willingness to police the predatory
- 26:50Speaker 2: sexual behavior of other men. That's why we have rape
- 26:54Speaker 2: as a crime, at least when it comes to women
- 26:57Speaker 2: right now. That's why we see conviction rates of men.
- 27:01Speaker 2: But they don't have the will to police women's negative
- 27:06Speaker 2: sexual behavior towards other men. There just isn't that kind
- 27:09Speaker 2: of this doesn't feel that important to them. That's where
- 27:14Speaker 2: women can step up and do it. Well, we'll see,
- 27:18Speaker 2: I guess, or we can continue to write this bullshit,
- 27:24Speaker 2: present this bullshit as the truth in cinema. We'll see
- 27:29Speaker 2: what women end up doing. Will they Will they start
- 27:31Speaker 2: to take responsibility for their half of sexual violence? Or
- 27:34Speaker 2: will they continue to offload all responsibility on men in
- 27:39Speaker 2: these cinematic lives. Need some jeopardy music or some like
- 27:44Speaker 2: a thinking music. I wonder what will continue to happen?
- 27:48Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, all right, So anyway, at our supermarket job,
- 27:55Speaker 1: the sleazy manager already read that right, Yeah, later as
- 28:00Speaker 1: the girls turn in their registers. He even kisses Autumn's
- 28:03Speaker 1: hand through a money slot in a furtive act of harassment.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Judge stock JoJo's picking up sounds outside far worse has
- 28:11Speaker 1: happened to Autumn behind the scenes. During our counseling session,
- 28:15Speaker 1: She's asked if her partner ever made her have sex
- 28:17Speaker 1: when she didn't want to. Autumn cannot even speak. The
- 28:20Speaker 1: script notes Autumn's floodgates open. She breaks down in tears.
- 28:27Speaker 1: The movie is I looked it up because I'm like, Okay,
- 28:31Speaker 1: what is this? And I know it's some feminist shit.
- 28:34Speaker 1: So Never, Rarely Sometimes Always is a twenty twenty drama
- 28:37Speaker 1: film about a teenage girl navigating an unintended pregnancy alongside
- 28:44Speaker 1: Talia Ryder as her cousin the film. The film follows
- 28:47Speaker 1: the pair as they travel from rural Pennsylvania to New
- 28:49Speaker 1: York City to seek medical help, a journey marked by
- 28:52Speaker 1: emotional weight, quiet, resilience, and the challenges of accessing reproductive
- 28:56Speaker 1: health care. So that's the kind of movie it is,
- 29:00Speaker 1: if that helps. So it's not just a film about
- 29:03Speaker 1: like men being predatory and bad, but it's also about
- 29:07Speaker 1: women not able to get like you know, common sense
- 29:10Speaker 1: reproductive health care, i e. Abortions, which is I'm pretty
- 29:14Speaker 1: sure what it's about, and it's just like full to
- 29:18Speaker 1: the brim with like all kinds of propaganda that women
- 29:21Speaker 1: just eat up apparently. But okay, anyway, pressed further, has
- 29:26Speaker 1: anyone forced you into a sexual act? She finally chokes out, yeah,
- 29:30Speaker 1: confirming that a boy in her life raped her. Of course,
- 29:34Speaker 1: that men, the men in Autumn's world, all of them
- 29:37Speaker 1: are either absent when needed or the source of trauma,
- 29:39Speaker 1: whereas the moral agency lies entirely with Autumn and her
- 29:42Speaker 1: female cousin, who supportively accompanies her on a secret trip
- 29:46Speaker 1: to get an abortion.
- 29:48Speaker 2: Okay, I want to say, I want to lay out
- 29:51Speaker 2: as statistic that I actually I mean, this is based
- 29:54Speaker 2: on some Grock analysis, but you know that's primarily what
- 29:57Speaker 2: that AI is for. Apparently, if you average everything out,
- 30:02Speaker 2: men spend as much time policing lesbian violence as they
- 30:07Speaker 2: do engaging in violence. Think about that, men spend as
- 30:12Speaker 2: much time, possibly more, just policing the violence that women
- 30:16Speaker 2: do in sexual relationships with each other as they do
- 30:21Speaker 2: engaging in their own violence. Is that incredible? And yet
- 30:28Speaker 2: men are the ones? Well, go ahead, Brian.
- 30:31Speaker 1: No, no, I was gonna say only if you only
- 30:33Speaker 1: if you are shocked to learn that. Yeah, I mean.
- 30:37Speaker 2: Men, whole like whole cloth, are the ones who police
- 30:41Speaker 2: bad behavior in our society. Without them, women would be
- 30:44Speaker 2: in relationships with other women, which means the domestic violence
- 30:47Speaker 2: and sexual assault would probably increase two or threefold, and
- 30:51Speaker 2: nobody would be there to police it. Mostly you probably
- 30:55Speaker 2: just have feminists excusing it. Oh, it's a good rape,
- 30:59Speaker 2: Oh it's a good beating. You're learning how to be
- 31:01Speaker 2: a proper woman. It's insane because and I base that
- 31:05Speaker 2: on the fact that feminists are in a war against
- 31:09Speaker 2: punishing women. They're getting rid of jails, or they're trying
- 31:13Speaker 2: to get rid of jails in the UK. They've successfully
- 31:16Speaker 2: gotten rid of juvenile detention for girls, but they're going
- 31:19Speaker 2: after jails in the UK. That's what they want to do.
- 31:21Speaker 2: They don't want to see women in prison for their
- 31:23Speaker 2: violent crime. They don't want to see women charged with
- 31:27Speaker 2: crime period. Everybody's got to be excused. So if you're
- 31:32Speaker 2: in the future, the future where there's only women, it's
- 31:37Speaker 2: going to be the woman being beaten who's going to
- 31:41Speaker 2: be told, oh, no, you can't feel bad about this, right,
- 31:47Speaker 2: you can't feel bad about the woman, your your female
- 31:49Speaker 2: partner who's beating you, because that's against the sisterhood. Like
- 31:55Speaker 2: it would be terrifying to have a female only world
- 32:00Speaker 2: because the amount of domestic violence and sexual assault that
- 32:04Speaker 2: would go completely unchecked, and in fact, the victims of
- 32:08Speaker 2: domestic violence and sexual assault would suddenly be the ones
- 32:12Speaker 2: criminalized because nobody is allowed to speak out against the sisterhood.
- 32:16Speaker 2: Nobody's allowed to recognize the violence that women engage in.
- 32:20Speaker 2: It would be an absolute dystopian nightmare because we would
- 32:25Speaker 2: lose men's sense of fair play and justice and their
- 32:30Speaker 2: willingness to put themselves on the line to ensure that
- 32:34Speaker 2: people are peaceful and respect each other. Again, men spend
- 32:39Speaker 2: as much, possibly more time engaging in policing lesbian violence,
- 32:46Speaker 2: as they do engaging in violence against women. And that
- 32:50Speaker 2: doesn't even cover the statistic about how much time men
- 32:54Speaker 2: spend policing other men's violence. It's something like thirty nine
- 33:00Speaker 2: times more time men spend policing, incarcerating the criminal justice system,
- 33:09Speaker 2: protecting women, and uh dealing with the injuries as a
- 33:14Speaker 2: result of other men's violence. Thirty nine times more effort
- 33:19Speaker 2: is putting in to prevent and ameliorate the damage of
- 33:23Speaker 2: criminal men by men. Then the criminal men are putting
- 33:27Speaker 2: in and being criminal towards women thirty nine times more
- 33:33Speaker 2: effort like this is. This is men are absolutely passionate
- 33:41Speaker 2: about punishing other men who hurt women. They are absolutely
- 33:46Speaker 2: This is the their driving passion, This is their driving passion.
- 33:55Speaker 2: If it were up to men, these these criminal men
- 33:58Speaker 2: who hurt women, would be freaking vaporized. But unfortunately, there's
- 34:04Speaker 2: this strange thing that happens because when they're criminal men
- 34:07Speaker 2: who hurt women, like Wade Wilson, suddenly four thousand deluge
- 34:13Speaker 2: of love letters from other women. There's this funny thing
- 34:17Speaker 2: that happens because there's somebody supporting these criminal men. And
- 34:21Speaker 2: it's not other men. It's not other men, not at all.
- 34:26Speaker 2: Somebody is supporting these men. Somebody is creating these men,
- 34:32Speaker 2: these criminal men that other men, normal men have an
- 34:36Speaker 2: absolute passion to destroy. But they heap popping up, They
- 34:42Speaker 2: keep coming from somewhere. Huh, I wonder where? Okay, I'm done.
- 34:50Speaker 1: Okay, So anyway, film after film paints its male characters
- 34:56Speaker 1: in a similarly dismal hue. Emerald Fennel's acid tinged thrill
- 35:00Speaker 1: Promising Young Woman takes direct aim at nice guys who
- 35:04Speaker 1: are anything but it's parade of men are rapists or enablers,
- 35:08Speaker 1: from the group of college bros who assaulted the heroine's friend,
- 35:11Speaker 1: to the former friend now doctor who laughed it off,
- 35:14Speaker 1: to the seemingly sweet new boyfriend who was ultimately revealed
- 35:16Speaker 1: to have been complicit. So like promising young women, I
- 35:20Speaker 1: remember the trailer for this movie. Actually it's this one
- 35:23Speaker 1: that's hit here, and it's about a woman. I'm not kidding.
- 35:27Speaker 1: This is the plot, okay. It stars Carrie mulligan as
- 35:32Speaker 1: Cassie Thomas, a thirty year old medical school dropout who
- 35:35Speaker 1: works in a coffee shop and spends her evenings pretending
- 35:38Speaker 1: to be drunk in bars and clubs to confront men
- 35:41Speaker 1: who attempt to take advantage of her sexually. She kills them.
- 35:45Speaker 1: It's not confrontations. She is basically a vigilante taking out
- 35:49Speaker 1: all the evil rapist men by going to bars pretending
- 35:53Speaker 1: to be drunk. And of course, all you know, I guess,
- 35:56Speaker 1: all the men they take the bait because we're all
- 36:00Speaker 1: rapists right underneath the surface, and she kills them. It
- 36:03Speaker 1: is another crazy, unhinged feminist revenge power fantasy, and it
- 36:11Speaker 1: is described as like literally feminist. The vigil anti behavior
- 36:15Speaker 1: stems from the traumatic rape and subsequent suicide of her
- 36:18Speaker 1: best friend Nina Fisher, whose rapist Al Monroe was cleared
- 36:22Speaker 1: of wrongdoing. Because you know, that totally happens. The film
- 36:25Speaker 1: incorporates black comedy, crime drama, feminism, rape and revenge, and
- 36:29Speaker 1: vigilanti thriller. It won a lot of awards, but I
- 36:33Speaker 1: don't think it made any money, so I guess that's something.
- 36:37Speaker 1: But anyway, this is just normal.
- 36:40Speaker 4: Now.
- 36:40Speaker 1: This is like, you know, uh, par for the course.
- 36:43Speaker 1: This is what our content is. It's paradive. Men are
- 36:47Speaker 1: rapists or enablers from the group of college I read
- 36:50Speaker 1: that part sorry. The film's biting opening illustrates this dynamic
- 36:54Speaker 1: in miniature. Cassie, pretending to be obliterated by alcohol, is
- 36:58Speaker 1: rescued by a man who coups assurances while attempting to
- 37:01Speaker 1: take advantage of her incapacitation. Cassie suddenly drops her ruse,
- 37:05Speaker 1: eyes clear and voice firm, scaring the hell out of
- 37:08Speaker 1: him as she forces him to recognize his predatory behavior.
- 37:13Speaker 2: We need a real we need a gender reverse like
- 37:16Speaker 2: this is. This is how insane this is. Let's imagine
- 37:19Speaker 2: this was a man doing this to female, to women
- 37:23Speaker 2: who take advantage of men who are incapacitated, and they
- 37:26Speaker 2: just blows like he just kills them.
- 37:29Speaker 1: Yeah, you'd imagine.
- 37:31Speaker 2: Can you imagine that Trump Plotlet I don't think it
- 37:33Speaker 2: would happen.
- 37:33Speaker 1: I don't think it would fly that never, It would
- 37:36Speaker 1: never get off the cutting room floor. It wouldn't even
- 37:38Speaker 1: be like allowed to be written.
- 37:41Speaker 2: We can't even we can't even we can't even hold
- 37:44Speaker 2: women accountable for their sexual crime. We can't even stomach that.
- 37:49Speaker 2: And that's what's behind all of the oh nice, so
- 37:52Speaker 2: I wish that was my teacher. It's because those men
- 37:54Speaker 2: can't stomach the idea of holding women accountable for sexual crime.
- 37:58Speaker 2: It just goes again against their nature. But the same
- 38:03Speaker 2: men are absolutely passionate about absolutely just white hot passionate
- 38:10Speaker 2: about policing the sexual behavior of other men. Like I said,
- 38:17Speaker 2: thirty nine times more effort put into policing the criminal
- 38:22Speaker 2: behavior of other men towards women than engaging in it
- 38:25Speaker 2: by men as a group. And yet what do feminists say,
- 38:29Speaker 2: you don't carry enough? They still exist you don't care enough.
- 38:34Speaker 2: Where are they coming from? Why do they still exist?
- 38:37Speaker 2: These are the questions. Why do they still exist despite
- 38:40Speaker 2: the average man being absolutely passionate or the average man
- 38:47Speaker 2: being far more like if you're going to just amortize this.
- 38:50Speaker 2: Over all men, they're far more passionate about ending crime
- 38:55Speaker 2: against women than engaging in it. So why does this
- 38:57Speaker 2: still continue? Maybe it's it's not men's fault that it continues.
- 39:03Speaker 2: Maybe they're doing what they can to stop it, but
- 39:06Speaker 2: there's certain things happening that are either outside of their
- 39:09Speaker 2: control or they aren't willing to call to account. Because
- 39:12Speaker 2: those men who say, oh, it's nays I wish that,
- 39:16Speaker 2: I wish that where we do as women When I
- 39:19Speaker 2: was a kid, right, those guys, that scenario a teenage
- 39:26Speaker 2: boy and an adult woman taking advantage of him is,
- 39:31Speaker 2: in terms of the longitudinal studies, the most likely to
- 39:34Speaker 2: cause that young man to become a sexual predator of others. Now,
- 39:39Speaker 2: it's a minority of boys who do that who end
- 39:42Speaker 2: up becoming sexual predators even when they are raped themselves,
- 39:46Speaker 2: minority like ten percent. I mean, that's what it takes, right,
- 39:50Speaker 2: It takes being sexually abused and having impulse control problems
- 39:54Speaker 2: in your brain to make a male predator. But that
- 39:57Speaker 2: is the scenario that creates them. Those guys who are
- 40:01Speaker 2: like where we're where were those women when I was?
- 40:05Speaker 2: You know, those guys, they're signing off on that boy
- 40:11Speaker 2: going on to abuse others, which is what they're concerned about. Well,
- 40:15Speaker 2: if you're that concerned about it, end it at its source,
- 40:18Speaker 2: end it where it begins. But of course, again, men
- 40:23Speaker 2: struggle with acknowledging women's sexual violence because that's not what
- 40:27Speaker 2: they're about about policing other men. But women could step
- 40:30Speaker 2: into this, could step into this and start policing women.
- 40:34Speaker 2: The only problem is attitudes are getting worse among women.
- 40:38Speaker 2: Younger women have shittier attitudes towards male victims of female
- 40:41Speaker 2: sexual assaulters than older women. Can you believe that in
- 40:46Speaker 2: the past we were better about recognizing male victims of
- 40:50Speaker 2: sexual assault than we are today. It's getting worse. And
- 40:56Speaker 2: these are the women who are constructing these cinematic mass
- 41:00Speaker 2: pieces of absolute lies and farting out can't cover for
- 41:07Speaker 2: their own behavior. Oh okay, all right.
- 41:17Speaker 1: In promising young women men's men's misdeeds are the central evil,
- 41:22Speaker 1: and the avenging angel is a woman driven to drastic
- 41:24Speaker 1: ends to expose them. Even basically decent men are portrayed
- 41:28Speaker 1: as cowardly or culpable. The message is that every man
- 41:31Speaker 1: is guilty, if not of rape, then of complicity or
- 41:34Speaker 1: wilful ignorance, and it's the women who bear the pain
- 41:37Speaker 1: and seek justice, writes one reviewer in summary of the
- 41:41Speaker 1: film's provocations. So this is all on purpose. I mean
- 41:49Speaker 1: like they're literally making shit up and then making it
- 41:53Speaker 1: like try to convince but people that this is the truth.
- 41:58Speaker 1: In this new cinematic landscape, even when men aren't outright villains,
- 42:02Speaker 1: they are depicted as feckless, foolish, or fragile. Take last
- 42:06Speaker 1: year's Cann's Palm Dior winner just In Trie's Anatomy of
- 42:10Speaker 1: a Fall. The drama centers on a wife accused of
- 42:14Speaker 1: killing her husband, Samuel, under murky circumstances. As the trial unspools,
- 42:19Speaker 1: a damning portrait of the late husband emerges. Samuel was
- 42:23Speaker 1: a frustrated writer suffering personal envy and depression, prone to
- 42:26Speaker 1: paranoid behavior. He had been secretly recording his wife, Sandra's
- 42:30Speaker 1: every word for months and grew jealous of her literary success.
- 42:36Speaker 1: In a climactic court scene, the prosecution plays an audio
- 42:39Speaker 1: recording of the couple's final argument, in which Samuel's composure
- 42:43Speaker 1: collapses and an explosion of violence is heard. It suggested
- 42:46Speaker 1: that he physically attack Sondra. She was left with bruises,
- 42:49Speaker 1: leading to the fall that killed him. The subtext is clear.
- 42:54Speaker 1: Samuel is depicted as emotionally broken and volatile, a man
- 42:57Speaker 1: who literally couldn't handle being eclipsed by his wife. Soundra,
- 43:01Speaker 1: by contrast, is portrayed as complex but ultimately more sympathetic,
- 43:05Speaker 1: an intellectual and mother who maintains poise under pressure, effectively
- 43:09Speaker 1: the moral center as the court and audience weigh her fate.
- 43:14Speaker 1: H God is bad writing anatomy of a fault.
- 43:19Speaker 2: Isn't the audience, It's triggering all the pressure points for
- 43:25Speaker 2: its audience. Yes, Like literally, I guess women in the
- 43:29Speaker 2: West just want to divorce men entirely. They just want
- 43:34Speaker 2: them out of their life. Because you're right, I remember
- 43:37Speaker 2: you said. Initially, there was an observation that there was
- 43:39Speaker 2: usually a man. Even in the lifetime movies, there is
- 43:42Speaker 2: usually a man who helped save the woman and ended
- 43:46Speaker 2: up being a romantic partner.
- 43:49Speaker 1: There was at least a good man.
- 43:50Speaker 2: There was at least one good man. Well, now they're
- 43:53Speaker 2: getting rid of that. Now they're getting rid of that.
- 43:56Speaker 2: There are no good men, even though men as a
- 44:00Speaker 2: collective put thirty nine times more effort into policing the
- 44:04Speaker 2: criminal behavior of other men than they do into engaging
- 44:08Speaker 2: in it. If you want to look at men as
- 44:10Speaker 2: a collective, right, far far more passion into punishing men
- 44:17Speaker 2: who hurt women. Men put far far more time and
- 44:20Speaker 2: passion into punishing men who hurt women than hurting them.
- 44:25Speaker 2: If you want to look at men as a collective,
- 44:26Speaker 2: we know that's ridiculous, but if we're going to do that,
- 44:29Speaker 2: let's be honest about the collective nature of men. Right
- 44:35Speaker 2: and again, if this was, if these cinematic masterpieces were
- 44:39Speaker 2: honest with reality, without men, women would be subject to
- 44:44Speaker 2: substantially more violence from other women because men police their
- 44:48Speaker 2: violence too, maybe not as effectively, which is a big problem.
- 44:53Speaker 2: Because men struggle withholding women accountable. That's one of the
- 44:56Speaker 2: things that's the big criticism I'd have with men. They
- 44:59Speaker 2: struggle with holding women accountable, but they still do it,
- 45:04Speaker 2: and they do it more than women. Because that's what's
- 45:06Speaker 2: hilarious by women saying well, patriarch. Well, if patriarchy is
- 45:11Speaker 2: enforcing sacrifice, that's other men choosing to do it, right,
- 45:15Speaker 2: because you wouldn't. You wouldn't enforce this on other women,
- 45:20Speaker 2: and you would not enforce you wouldn't. Well, you probably
- 45:22Speaker 2: would enforce it on men, obviously from this cinema cinematic stuff,
- 45:26Speaker 2: but you wouldn't. You wouldn't enforce it on other women.
- 45:30Speaker 2: For whatever reason, women do not police other women in
- 45:34Speaker 2: this way. They police them if they feel like they're
- 45:37Speaker 2: a threat to women's overall access to resources. Sure, but
- 45:41Speaker 2: they do not police their bad behavior towards men, at
- 45:46Speaker 2: least not in this lifetime.
- 45:50Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 45:52Speaker 2: Okay, let's keep going.
- 45:53Speaker 1: Anatomy of a fall isn't clever.
- 45:55Speaker 2: It's actually sorry, sorry, Brian. They also don't police their
- 45:59Speaker 2: bad behavior to it's other women. They have to rely
- 46:02Speaker 2: on men to do that.
- 46:04Speaker 1: Okay, continue, Anatomy of a fall isn't clever, it's entry
- 46:09Speaker 1: level bait and switch. The script black stacks, obvious, she
- 46:12Speaker 1: did it, breadcrumbs, loaded anecdotes, conveniently incriminating fragments, a neatly
- 46:17Speaker 1: arranged trail of marital rot, and then smirks, gotcha, misogyny,
- 46:21Speaker 1: as if the audience's suspicion were proof of their bias
- 46:25Speaker 1: rather than the direct result of the film's own engineering.
- 46:28Speaker 1: That's not depth. It's a cheap card trick where the
- 46:30Speaker 1: magician palms the queen and then lectures you for noticing
- 46:33Speaker 1: the deck so apparently because I would never watch it.
- 46:37Speaker 1: They basically set you up to think that the woman
- 46:40Speaker 1: did it this whole time, and then they turn the
- 46:42Speaker 1: tables and say, ha, it's misogyny, and it's your fault
- 46:46Speaker 1: for thinking it was the thing that they were leading
- 46:48Speaker 1: you to believe it was okay, And you're also.
- 46:51Speaker 2: Part of the problem, right, yeah, you're part of the problems.
- 46:56Speaker 1: So that's incredibly manipulative.
- 46:58Speaker 2: Go ahead, you're part of the problem because you believe
- 47:00Speaker 2: the evidence that they presented. They controlled everything, so they
- 47:04Speaker 2: presented evidence of her guilt. But the fact is you
- 47:07Speaker 2: didn't believe her, So they are going to tell you
- 47:10Speaker 2: that you were wrong for following the evidence. You should
- 47:14Speaker 2: only ever believe women. This is such heavy handed propaganda,
- 47:21Speaker 2: and it is this is like, this is destroying women.
- 47:24Speaker 2: The more they invest in this narrative, the more absolutely
- 47:28Speaker 2: insane they become. Have you noticed this that when you
- 47:32Speaker 2: on more a human being from expectations of treating the
- 47:35Speaker 2: under other gender like they're human, they cease to be
- 47:40Speaker 2: human themselves. You become a monster. Because women are not
- 47:43Speaker 2: held accountable for their behavior towards anybody but themselves, they
- 47:47Speaker 2: have descended into becoming monsters. That's what the millennial shift
- 47:52Speaker 2: is showing. I believe all evidence that that is the
- 47:57Speaker 2: no only believe women. That is war cry of female abusers. Okay, okay, yep,
- 48:08Speaker 2: all right.
- 48:11Speaker 1: I think that they're just gonna go into more of
- 48:13Speaker 1: the of this example. I think I'll jump ahead a
- 48:16Speaker 1: little bit, all right. Even ostensibly light hearted films reinforce
- 48:22Speaker 1: the theme. Greta Gerwig's blockbuster Barbie You may have heard
- 48:26Speaker 1: of this one garnered attention for its candy colored feminist subtext.
- 48:30Speaker 1: In the film's satirical reversal. Barbie Land is a matriarchy
- 48:34Speaker 1: where Barbie's run everything and Ken's our decorative sidekicks. But
- 48:37Speaker 1: when Ken, played by Ryan Gosling, discovers the concept of patriarchy,
- 48:40Speaker 1: he promptly leads an over the top male takeover that
- 48:43Speaker 1: plunges Barbieland into a goofy dystopia of horse inspired macho posturing.
- 48:48Speaker 1: The depiction of Ken and his brethren is pointly comical, vain,
- 48:52Speaker 1: simple minded, and eagerly easily manipulated by their own fragile ego.
- 48:57Speaker 2: But the fragile egos was their desire to action, protect
- 49:01Speaker 2: and provide for women. That's what's freaking hilarious about it.
- 49:06Speaker 2: These men, the Kens, were manipulated by wanting to help
- 49:12Speaker 2: the Barbies, you know, wanting to protect the Barbies, like
- 49:17Speaker 2: they were manipulated by the things that feminism doesn't say
- 49:20Speaker 2: exist or basically frames as benevolent sexism.
- 49:26Speaker 1: Yeso to defeat the Kens, the Barbies execute a clever plan,
- 49:33Speaker 1: will distract them by pretending to be helpless and confused.
- 49:36Speaker 1: Kens can't resist the damsel in distress one Barbie.
- 49:39Speaker 2: Exactly exactly because because they care. Honestly, if men were
- 49:47Speaker 2: women's enemies, do you display of a weakness, ladies, and
- 49:53Speaker 2: men will use that to destroy you, because that's what
- 49:59Speaker 2: enemies do to their enemies weaknesses. They don't use it
- 50:01Speaker 2: as a clarion call, as a call to do whatever
- 50:05Speaker 2: they can to protect women from their own weaknesses to
- 50:08Speaker 2: protect and they don't do That's not how enemies work.
- 50:12Speaker 2: Enemies when you show your weakness to an enemy, that
- 50:15Speaker 2: enemy endeavors to exploit it to their own ends. So
- 50:19Speaker 2: you're essentially saying right there that men are not women's enemies,
- 50:22Speaker 2: and you are using men's desire to protect and provide
- 50:27Speaker 2: for you against them. How honest Barbie was, How absolutely
- 50:32Speaker 2: honest it was to that dynamic that these women manipulate
- 50:36Speaker 2: men by using their desire to protect and provide for
- 50:40Speaker 2: women's weaknesses. Right to get to carry women over the
- 50:45Speaker 2: rushing stream. Oh geez, dudes, geez, you're so horrible to women,
- 50:51Speaker 2: So that's how we can manipulate you by wanting to
- 50:54Speaker 2: protect and provide for us. What a bunch of bullshit.
- 51:00Speaker 2: There's a bunch of snarky, self involved, selfish, syllopsistic bullshit.
- 51:08Speaker 1: Mm hmm, okay, the Barbie's fain cluelessness to flatter the
- 51:13Speaker 1: men who immediately fall for it. In one scene, a
- 51:16Speaker 1: brainwash can leans over a Barbie to man explaining the
- 51:19Speaker 1: difference between stock market CDs and music CDs. Oh, sweetheart,
- 51:23Speaker 1: you are just so cute when you're confused. CD stands
- 51:26Speaker 1: for a certificate of deposit. He lectures while she bats
- 51:29Speaker 1: her eyelashes and feigned awe. The ruse works perfectly. The
- 51:32Speaker 1: dupe cans relinquish their grip on power without the women
- 51:35Speaker 1: ever needing to use force. Barbie's gleeful message is that
- 51:39Speaker 1: when men do have power, they don't know what to
- 51:41Speaker 1: do with it. Besides impose of sur chauvinism, and savvy
- 51:45Speaker 1: women can easily outsmart them. The film pointedly makes its
- 51:48Speaker 1: heroine the moral and emotional anchor, while the men learn
- 51:52Speaker 1: a lesson in humility. And then there is Yargos, Lenthimos, lanthemos,
- 52:00Speaker 1: this surreal feminist fable Poor Things twenty twenty three, Oh
- 52:04Speaker 1: my God, this is I Can't Wait, which flips the
- 52:08Speaker 1: Victorian Frankenstein trope to shot to sly effect. The protagonist,
- 52:12Speaker 1: Bella Emma Stone, is a resurrected woman finding her independence
- 52:17Speaker 1: in a world of leering or controlling men. Oh God.
- 52:21Speaker 1: Her creator, doctor Baxter, is a grotesque but kind man
- 52:24Speaker 1: who nonetheless literally keeps Bella under lock and key for
- 52:28Speaker 1: her own good. When a slick male lawyer, Duncan Wedderburn
- 52:32Speaker 1: encounters Bella, he is so intrigued by this uninhibited woman
- 52:36Speaker 1: that he spirits her away on a tour of debauchery
- 52:39Speaker 1: across Europe. Duncan styles himself a liberator. Upon meeting her,
- 52:43Speaker 1: he dramatically declares, you are a prisoner, and I am
- 52:45Speaker 1: to free you, or I aim to free you. There
- 52:48Speaker 1: is something in you, some hungry being, hungry for experience, freedom, touch.
- 52:54Speaker 1: But this version of freedom is to indulge the hedonistic
- 52:56Speaker 1: sex and thrilling on his terms. In one after Bella
- 53:00Speaker 1: enthusiastically beds him, Duncan can't resist boasting about his sexual
- 53:04Speaker 1: prowess at the risk of being immodest. You have just
- 53:07Speaker 1: been thrice fucked by the very best, he brags to
- 53:10Speaker 1: her with smug self satisfaction. Eventually, Duncan's self centered antics,
- 53:14Speaker 1: including gambling away Bella's money, prove him to be a
- 53:17Speaker 1: shallow Probably get that.
- 53:18Speaker 2: Money from, uh what hell? Where did that get the
- 53:22Speaker 2: money from? Probably from the creator or benefactor.
- 53:27Speaker 1: Poor Things cast its men as either paternalistic protectors or
- 53:30Speaker 1: libertine exploiters and skewers both. Bella ultimately asserts her autonomy,
- 53:35Speaker 1: rejecting the cages both kinds of men offer. The film's
- 53:38Speaker 1: feminist lens makes it sympathy clear the men are foolish
- 53:41Speaker 1: and corrupt, the woman is the one discovering authentic moral agency. God,
- 53:46Speaker 1: it's just one example after another. Can we get to like,
- 53:50Speaker 1: I don't know, like, do you want me to go
- 53:51Speaker 1: through more of these examples or do you want me
- 53:53Speaker 1: to like find something else? Because I get it, like
- 53:55Speaker 1: this has becusion.
- 53:56Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it. This is pervasive.
- 53:58Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just a bunch of these Honora triangle of sadness.
- 54:02Speaker 1: Sadness dismantles masculinity from start to finish.
- 54:07Speaker 2: But let's go back to that one. What mess masculinity
- 54:10Speaker 2: does it dismantle?
- 54:13Speaker 1: Paarl, a fragile male model, bickers over dinner bills and
- 54:17Speaker 1: is later reduced to Abigail's boy toy in exchange for food.
- 54:20Speaker 1: On the luxury yacht. Rich men from the drunken Marxist
- 54:23Speaker 1: captain to the fertilizer car tycoon are grotesques, vomiting through
- 54:28Speaker 1: storms or ranting drunken politics over the Okay, all right.
- 54:31Speaker 2: So wait, she's sexually exploiting him, and that's the statement
- 54:35Speaker 2: on masculinity.
- 54:38Speaker 1: Yes, reduced to Abigail's boy toy. Yeah, looks like it.
- 54:43Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, that's that's exactly the attitude that's causing this
- 54:46Speaker 2: generation of women to be the rapist generation in human history.
- 54:50Speaker 2: That is not that is not you getting yours, lady,
- 54:55Speaker 2: that's you exploiting another human being. Well, I mean, I
- 54:59Speaker 2: guess it's pross institution for food. But you know, if
- 55:02Speaker 2: it was a man doing it to a woman, what
- 55:04Speaker 2: would you say. This is why this narrative is so pernicious,
- 55:08Speaker 2: this idea that this is a backlash that women are
- 55:10Speaker 2: engaging against men because men shot first. I'm sorry, but
- 55:15Speaker 2: and again I've gotten into this argument with a woman. Oh,
- 55:18Speaker 2: while men protect women from sexual violence, Well, that's because
- 55:22Speaker 2: patriarchy did it better responsible. Yes, men throughout history have
- 55:28Speaker 2: protected women from sexual violence. Okay, and it wasn't because
- 55:33Speaker 2: they thought of them as their property. You don't lynch
- 55:37Speaker 2: someone for touching your car, right, You don't have that
- 55:42Speaker 2: kind of passion for somebody who does something like that. So, yes,
- 55:47Speaker 2: men have gone out of their way to police other
- 55:51Speaker 2: men's sexual behavior towards women. They've also gone out of
- 55:55Speaker 2: their way to police women's bad behavior. They're violent and
- 56:00Speaker 2: sexual assault of other women. Because men have an inherent
- 56:04Speaker 2: sense of fairness, they just struggle with applying that to
- 56:08Speaker 2: women when it comes to other men. Okay, Anyways, all right.
- 56:16Speaker 1: The final act on Desert Island flips over completely. Abigail
- 56:20Speaker 1: wants the ship's toilet cleaner, declares herself captain, doling out food,
- 56:24Speaker 1: while billionaires and influencers, especially the men, meekly comply. This
- 56:29Speaker 1: all prostitutes himself for pretzels, embodying male emasculation as comedy.
- 56:34Speaker 1: The film won the Palm, Dior and Oscar nominations precisely
- 56:37Speaker 1: because it revels in humiliating men and celebrating female dominance,
- 56:41Speaker 1: a perfect fit for post hashtag me too festival tastes.
- 56:46Speaker 2: And this is why this generation. Go back up to
- 56:48Speaker 2: that paragraph, this is why this generation of women is
- 56:52Speaker 2: the most rapeye generation in human history, because they are
- 56:56Speaker 2: empowered by this narrative that it's getting back at men.
- 57:01Speaker 2: There is actually a correlation between women's hatred towards men
- 57:05Speaker 2: and their sexually violent behavior towards men. There isn't as
- 57:08Speaker 2: much when it comes to men for whatever reason. All right, so,
- 57:13Speaker 2: but here's the question, who's upholding her rain?
- 57:20Speaker 1: What do you mean?
- 57:21Speaker 2: Well, who's the who's what's How does she establish her
- 57:24Speaker 2: power as captain? Obviously this is a result of some
- 57:27Speaker 2: kind of mutiny, right, Well, who are the mutineers who
- 57:31Speaker 2: are supporting her. Otherwise, well, how would the women be
- 57:37Speaker 2: physically capable of constructing this mutiny against the men? Let
- 57:45Speaker 2: me just let me just see, this is a triangle
- 57:48Speaker 2: of sadness. How does the female and triangle of sadness
- 57:56Speaker 2: create or manage against the male captain? Let's see what
- 58:03Speaker 2: it says. Oh well, I don't. Agail staff member doesn't
- 58:11Speaker 2: stage a traditional mutiny against the male captain the yacht,
- 58:14Speaker 2: but becomes a defect a leader among the survivors after
- 58:16Speaker 2: the shipwreck. Here's how it unfolds contacts the power shift.
- 58:20Speaker 2: After the yacht sinks to a pirate attack, a small
- 58:23Speaker 2: group of survivors and including Abigail, ends up on a
- 58:25Speaker 2: deserted island. The captain, Thomas survives, but it is in
- 58:28Speaker 2: a weakened state both physically and mentally due to his
- 58:31Speaker 2: drunkenness and the chaos of the situation. The established hierarchy
- 58:34Speaker 2: from the yacht collapses as wealth and status become irrelevant.
- 58:38Speaker 2: So more relevant is survival skills. And we're arguing that
- 58:43Speaker 2: a woman is going to take charge in that situation.
- 58:46Speaker 2: You realize that this is absolute bullshit. Okay, Abigail's rise.
- 58:49Speaker 2: Abigail Don't Care takes charge because she possesses practical survival skills,
- 58:54Speaker 2: unlike the other survivors, who are mostly wealthy passengers or
- 58:57Speaker 2: high ranking crew with no real world competent. She knows
- 59:00Speaker 2: how to fish, start a fire, and secure food, making
- 59:03Speaker 2: her indispensable. All right, So apparently the woman has the
- 59:11Speaker 2: survival skills, which is why she ends up in charge.
- 59:15Speaker 2: This is a constructed reality. We've already seen this play
- 59:19Speaker 2: out in reality. I think it was Bear Gillis's Island,
- 59:23Speaker 2: the male island versus the female island. The female island
- 59:26Speaker 2: was completely incapable. The women were completely incapable of taking
- 59:31Speaker 2: care of themselves, whereas the men established a reasonably self
- 59:36Speaker 2: sufficient little tribe almost immediately. I mean, they had their problems,
- 59:42Speaker 2: but they managed it. They managed to get clean water.
- 59:45Speaker 2: It was one of the most hilarious images was the
- 59:48Speaker 2: women's piss water versus the men's clean water. And they
- 59:53Speaker 2: had lots of it too. Like the women, they managed
- 59:55Speaker 2: to pull together and create like one plastic bottle of
- 59:59Speaker 2: what looked like urine. They didn't develop a filtration system.
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: The men had created a filtration system, and they had
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: gallons of fresh water, so they're just walking up and
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: taking a swig whenever they want, and women are just
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: pissed waters all we have. It's like this is completely
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: divorced from reality. And honestly, the men who are multimillionaires,
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: unless they inherited their wealth, they've probably had their experience
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: with hard labor. Like every guy has a worst job,
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: a story about a worst job. Roofing in July, landscaping
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: in like August, you know, picking up trash, picking up
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: chickens in a chicken farm. Every dude that I've talked to,
- 1:00:45Speaker 2: or at least most of them, has a worse job,
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: which is usually labor focused, not women. Their worst job
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: is how I had to arrange the products in the
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: front room of an oar salon. It was so boring,
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: you know that kind of thing, right, so right there,
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: this is an incredibly unlike this only occurs in fantasy
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: that then woman has the survival skills. It is proportionately
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: unlikely to occur in reality. And most of those guys,
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: unless they were you know, and even if they were,
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: they may have done things like gone into the military,
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: even if they were from a rich family, or gone
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: into military school or gone into scouting, right, that's a
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: that's a far higher proportion of men who would have
- 1:01:32Speaker 2: cyber survival skills in this instance than women. So it's
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: a completely constructed reality, absolute bullshit. Why because women's egos
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: apparently need even more flattering, which is hilarious, because they
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: constantly need inflating. Because women are feel so insecure, they
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: are feel so humiliated by what men have created. So
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: insecure and humiliated by the achievements of men. That's why
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: they do this. We talk about Like a while back,
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: my therapist pointed out and this was a therapist who
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: dealt with actual competencies in dealing with anxiety, which I had.
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: He said that anxiety masks humiliation. Women affect this fear
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: of men because they feel so inferior to men. That's
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: what this is about.
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: Mm hmm, okay, that makes sense.
- 1:02:32Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: I got a rumble rant from Nova fan uh for
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: a dollar and he says, don't forget another feminist trope.
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: I remember seeing a man is sent to save a woman,
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: but somehow he keeps failing at every basic task when
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: she may as well rescue herself. Yes, all right, so
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: let's just jump to the next section. It basically like
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: summed it up, contextualizing real world statistics against the exaggerated
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: portrayals of men in contemporary cinema. Oh that's good. The
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: gap between cinematic narrative and social reality is staggering. You
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: had no shit, but wow, they are lying a lot.
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: I'm glad this person said this, though, this is an
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: interesting admission. In the film surveyed above, male characters are
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: overwhelmingly cast as predators, abusers, or enablers of violence, as
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: though every man is complicit in misogyny. Yeah, that's the point.
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: Yet hard data tells a very different story. Globally, only
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: a small fraction of men are ever accused of sexual harassment,
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: whether formally or informally. In the United States, for example,
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: the Gender Employment Opportunity Commission or I'm sorry, the Equal
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: Employment Opportunity Commission received about seven six hundred sexual harassment
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: charges in twenty eighteen, the first full year of hashtag
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: me two, which represented less than point zero one percent
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: of the US male population. Even when looking at a
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: four year span twenty eighteen through twenty twenty one, the
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: little number of men formally accused through EEOC charges remains
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: well under zero point one percent of American men. Yeah,
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: but just to add to this, that's just the accusations.
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: That doesn't actually represent whether or not it happened. It
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: just means this is how often women complained. These are
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: sexual harassment charges that were made right and in general,
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: in the workplace, if there is assuming this is a
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: workplace thing, if there is a an allegation made, the
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: company usually does whatever it can to just like handle
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: it as quickly and as quietly as possible, because they're,
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: you know, don't want to harm their reputation, they want
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: to avoid lawsuits whatever. And a lot of the time
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: the men just get fired or they separate them in
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: some way or something, so they usually just do something
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: with it. Most of the time it results in the
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: men getting fired, is what I believe. And so you're
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: not this percentage is actually too big, is what I think.
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: Workplace HR complaints are more common than lawsuits, but still
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: affect only a small minority of men. Yeah, but that's
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: because workplace HR complaints don't cost anything to make, so
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: you can just do it. Lawsuits cost money, so you
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: have to really think about whether or not you have
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: a case. Research suggests that perhaps one to two percent
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: of employed men over several years will face such an allegation.
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: Anonymous surveys castle wider net. About four percent of men
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: in a twenty seventeen survey admitted to behavior they considered harassment.
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: Even if we take the higher estimates, this still means
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: the overwhelming majority of men, upwards of ninety to ninety
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: five percent worldwide, are never accused of harassment at all.
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: Well, okay, let's keep going, but I'm gonna give some
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: more context to the reality of male victimhood.
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: Yeah yea, Now place those percentages beside the reality of
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: male victimhood. Around sixty to seventy percent of the homeless
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: in the US are men, a silent crisis rarely dramatized
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: in prestige cinema. Men also account for about seventy eight
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: percent of homicide victims, and globally, men die by suicide
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: at roughly three to four times the rate of women.
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: They also make up the vast majority of workplace deaths,
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: overdose fatalities, and combat casualties. In other words, men are
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: not only disproportionately the accused and cultural narratives, but also
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: disproportionately the victims in real life.
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: Okay, and then you can add to that, because this
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: is this is omitting a big portion. You can add
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: to that the silent epidemic of sexual violence against men.
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: The most accurate statistic is the National Intimate Partner in
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: Sexual Violence Surveys for twenty ten, twenty eleven, in twenty twelve,
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: and possibly also twenty fifteen. I haven't looked too closely
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: at it. After those dates, they significantly changed their methodology,
- 1:07:03Speaker 2: which resulted in a massive reduction in the reporting rate
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: of male victims. And the reason why is because they
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: changed how they approached the questions. Instead of starting with
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: questions that sort of got people comfortable with revealing any
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: kind of sexual or domestic abuse, they would just drop
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: those questions in the middle of other questions, so it'd
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: be sort of like this, how many adults are in
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: your household? Oh? Oh, okay, so for adults, five children? Whatever?
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: All right?
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: Have you ever been forcibly shoved down into garbage in
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: a alley and have your ainus expanded by somebody's table leg?
- 1:07:53Speaker 2: I mean that has ever happened to you? Oh?
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: Oh oh?
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: You hung up? Hmm, Well that's really unfortunate, that's what
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: they were find I mean, it's a bit of an exaggeration,
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: but instead of actually building a rapport so that people
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: would start to be able to reveal sexual and domestic violence,
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: these surveyors started dropping these questions in unrelated questions in
- 1:08:17Speaker 2: an unrelated manner. And what a surprise. Not only did
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: they receive considerably less responses from men who probably were
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: much more uncomfortable operationalizing their abuse in the middle of
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: unrelated questions, they also got a lot more people who
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: just didn't complete the survey at all, Like the rate
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: went down from eighty to fifty. And then also the
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: people who just basically nope the hell out of the
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: whole thing went from thirty or sorry went from mom
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: like seven percent to thirty. So they actually constructed the
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: survey instrument that caused people to more than ever before.
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: It actually led to them having to stop the survey
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: halfway through. And nobody knows if this is actually legitimate,
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: but this is the kind of chicanery they get up
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: to to try to make the results fit what they want,
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: which is that men are the majority perpetrators. But if
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: you look at the results from the surveys that actually
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: asked men, even though they categorized it in this weird
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: made to penetrate. They actually asked men, where you physically
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: forced to have sex in the last year? Who did it?
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: You find in the end of the day that about
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: forty three percent of rapists or women, and if you
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: include underreporting in that, you're looking more at sixty seven percent.
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: If you look at the statistics on underreporting for men,
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: it could be as high as sixty seven percent. So
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: the lower bound is about forty percent, the higher bound
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: is sixty seven percent. Sixty seven percent of rapists or
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: women within the realm of possibility. We don't know because
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: they instead of actually creating survey instruments to find out,
- 1:10:08Speaker 2: they do weird chicanery to try to reduce the amount
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: of men to talk about their experiences like that. They
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: change the methodology, you know, with a wink, wink, nudge, nudge,
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: we'll we'll try to get a few male victims to
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: reveal so that we can continue to perpetrate our grift. Right,
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: So we don't know. We don't know, but it could
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: be anywhere between forty to sixty seven percent female rapists.
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: That's an entire epidemic. And these chicks they are we're
- 1:10:40Speaker 2: not talking about I don't know a glass at a
- 1:10:43Speaker 2: glass of wine at dinner rate. We're talking about weapons,
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: we're talking about use of drugs, use of minor status.
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: So in other words, they're preying on underage boys. And
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: we're talking about use of accusations, threats, credible threats of
- 1:10:59Speaker 2: this violence. What do you think of false accusation of rapists?
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: So flat out we are dealing with a silent epidemic
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: of female rapists in our society that nobody wants to
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: talk about. Nobody except us, not even this article wants
- 1:11:16Speaker 2: to talk about. Maybe they don't even know about it.
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: They don't even know about it. So even the absolute
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: like the specific arrangement of victimhood that they're presenting in
- 1:11:26Speaker 2: this cinema of sexual victimhood, may is most likely and
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: I actually had Grock run the numbers. It is highly
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: improbable that the National Intimate Partner in Sexual Violent Survey
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: for three years in a row would find that high
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: rate of female perpetration in a society in a world
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: if reality was significantly asymmetrical in its gender perpetration of
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: sexual violence. That means, if if reality really bore out
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: the way feminists insists it does, in which men are
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: ninety percent of the perpetrators of sexual violence. Those that
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: would that reality would never produce the statistics the National
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey found for three years
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: in a row. Never, So something is not not making
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: sense here. And I can tell you one thing. It's
- 1:12:22Speaker 2: not the most accurate. It is not the most accurate
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: statistics on who is being raped and who's doing the raping.
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: That's not the problem. The problem is the feminist framework
- 1:12:34Speaker 2: of reality. So even there, even if we just look
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: at what they're talking about, their frame of how women
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: are victims of men, it's unsupported. It is unsupported. They
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: are constructing an absolute bullshit. We don't have to go
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: to homelessness rates, suicide rates, death and war rates, death
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: in workplace, accident rates. Right there, right at the epicenter
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: of what they are convinced is women's fortress. A victim
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: hard men have a steak. They one hundred percent have
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: a right to be heard as victims of this thing
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: that women have claimed for themselves, which is rape.
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So now let's look at relationships and
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: intimate partner violence. A large US study of young adults
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: found that about twenty four percent of the relationships had
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: some violence. About half of those were reciprocal. But there's
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: here's the real shocker. When intimate partner vants was one sided,
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: women were the perpetrator in more than seventy percent of
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: those cases. Actually not shocking to us because we knew
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: this already. So you're basically catching up with like reality.
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: I guess that's fine. So contrast these statistics with cinematic landscape,
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: and of course they obviously yeah, it's it's the opposite
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: of reality. The disjunction matters when films repeatedly suggest that
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: men as a class are dangerous, complicit, or broken, they
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: risk cementing a cultural script that far outstrips reality. Yes,
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: harassment and abuse are serious problems, but they are perpetrated
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: by a minority of men, often repeat offenders. Cinema, however,
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: portrays them as the majority, if not the entirety. Meanwhile,
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: the real vulnerabilities of men, homelessness, suicide, homicide are raised
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: from the screen. The result is a distortion. Audiences are
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: invited to see the problem not as a subset of
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: bad actors, but as masculinity itself. Yes, all this is true,
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: and the purpose of it is, of course to present
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: it this way. And touch the fiefees on the audience
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: so that they believe this. They even sell a lot
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: of these films which are fictional accounts completely, but they'll
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: sell them as a reflective of reality, if not reality itself. Remember,
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: they tried to claim that Adolescence was a documentary, and
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: that's not an accident. They still make this claim. So okay,
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: in real life, not on screen. It's actually safer to
- 1:15:05Speaker 1: be a woman than a man. That's true. I can't
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: argue with that, Alison. Are you arguing with Ryan Lopez?
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: I am.
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: He just got here and he just he doesn't know
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: that we've been doing this for like what fourteen years?
- 1:15:21Speaker 2: Yep.
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: Well, you wouldn't have arguments if it weren't for people
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: like us, I'm sorry to tell you. But your boy
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: that you love so much, he got his arguments from us.
- 1:15:35Speaker 2: Who's the boy that he loves so much?
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: Fresh and fit?
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah?
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: Those guys earl fresh and fit? You know whatever. Those guys,
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: they all they all were watching content like ours that's
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: been here for over a decade and now they're just
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: adopting it. But they didn't find it, they didn't do
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: the work.
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: So yeah, well, I mean Andrew Wilson has done a
- 1:16:03Speaker 2: shout out for us, So thank you.
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: Wilson has given us a shout out. Yes, okay, yeah,
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: so fine, welcome to the stream. But you know you
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: must be new here because we've been doing this a
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: long time, and you can go into our channel and
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: see the track record. We've been doing this a long time.
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: Lots of predictions.
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: Yes, we've made a lot of predictions.
- 1:16:27Speaker 2: Including Gamergaate, Like we predicted Gamergate before it happened. I
- 1:16:30Speaker 2: don't know if you were a producer then at but
- 1:16:33Speaker 2: what I remember doing, well, I remember, Actually I don't
- 1:16:36Speaker 2: think you were, because you came in on twenty fifteen,
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: but two times I have.
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: I think I've been doing it since twenty fourteen.
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: Okay, but twenty thirteen I did an episode on Anita
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: Sarkisian will Absolve You of your Sins. So it was
- 1:16:52Speaker 2: talking about how the gaming community was going to be
- 1:16:55Speaker 2: taken over by this quasi religious expectation that they can
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: to a particular viewpoint. That was in twenty thirteen. What
- 1:17:04Speaker 2: happened in twenty fourteen, right, So yeah, we've made we've
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: made predictions. The things that have happened and have subsequently happened,
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: But so stick around. Maybe you'll find some of our
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: stuff interesting, even though apparently you have a problem with
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: my arguments, but you don't.
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: Know which ones he's taken. The l it's fine, he
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: thinks that men are being greated better than ever. Well,
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: I mean they maybe until they're not. But all right,
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: so anyway, in I don't think they're victims. Don't get
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: it twisted. I don't bind it the victim narrative. But
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: I do think there are blind spots in the way
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: that we look at men's problems compared to women's, and
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: I think that's that's a different thing.
- 1:17:51Speaker 2: What does it mean victims? Yes, men can be victims.
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: Of things, No, but I mean victim in the feminist sense,
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: like the systemic victimhood, Like you can't.
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: Do that because the thing only women can do that.
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: Only women can use their victimhood as a form of
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: social currency. Men can't, Right, And that's why I understand
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: why people like Ryan reject Ryan Lopez reject the recognition
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: of men's victim hidden circumcircumstances, because you can't use it
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: as social currency. It's just supposedly failure. Right, Well, it's
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: the truth, Okay, I'm sorry. It's the truth. Is regardless
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: of how you feel about it, it is the truth. Yeah,
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: I'm supposed to lie, Okay, all right?
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: Bottom line absolute numbers. When you tally deaths and serious injuries, homicide, suicide,
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: fatal work injuries, and ed treated violence, men are harmed
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: and killed in greater numbers. Overall. Women do suffer more
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: sexual and partner violence, usually from a partner, ex partner,
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: or family member, with only about twenty to thirty percent
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: of sexual violence is done by strangers. Taking the full
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: ledger into account, it's clear that on balance, it is
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: much safer to be a woman than a man, and
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: they live on average five years longer two yeah in
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: the other world, or one to.
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: Two of three. One to two of those years is
- 1:19:20Speaker 2: actually due to stress and workplace injury because they are
- 1:19:24Speaker 2: responsible primarily for maintaining society, So men are losing life
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: span in order to make sure everybody is protected and
- 1:19:35Speaker 2: provided for and comfortable and fed.
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: Mm hmm, all right. In other words, these so called
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: brave realist social dramas are anything but in truth. According
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: to the hard facts, their closement of science fiction fit
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: to be shelved alongside at astra Inception and Blade Runner.
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: Turns out sci fi movies can win ponds after all.
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: Post hashtag me too, revenge and the ideological shift in Hollywood, Okay,
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: I wonder if they're going to make a prediction. All right,
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: These betrayals are no accident of individual storytelling, but part
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: of a broader ideological shift in Hollywood after the hashtag
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: me too movement in late twenty seventeen, the Harvey Weinstein
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: scandal and the hashtag me too reckoning exposed the prevalence
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: of sexual misconduct by powerful men, not just in entertainment
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: but across society. The response from the creative community was
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: swift that continues to reverberate, more films centering women's perspectives,
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: more brutal examinations of gender power imbalance, and unmistakably less
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: patients for glorifying or excusing bad men.
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: In fact, Hollywood, when was their patience for glorifying or
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: excusing bad men? And first of all, I haven't a
- 1:20:55Speaker 2: lot of the me too accusations collapsed.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: A lot of them. Yes, Harvey Weinstein's probably gonna beat, like,
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: I think, every case against him because it was consensual.
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: And then Cosby also collapsed because of tampering with the evidence. Yeah,
- 1:21:14Speaker 2: like this, there is a substantial amount of the me
- 1:21:16Speaker 2: two cases that collapse because this was a witch hunt.
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: All right, Okay, let's see. In fact, Hollywood has arguably
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: turned cinema into a vehicle for advocacy. Determined to dramatize
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: the wages of male sin, Hollywood is now becoming its
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: own loudest voice and helping to call out what a
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: bad thing this is, observes Robert Thompson, professor of Popular
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: culture at Syracuse University, referring to sexual harassment and abuse.
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: By embedding Meto's lessons into scripts and characters, filmmakers have
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: essentially institutionalized a cultural reckoning within popular narratives. The me
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: Too movement was at the front lines, then it becomes
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: institutionalized by these films and TV shows, which people will
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: continue to watch years later. Thompson notes, pointing out that
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: fiction can serve as a long lasting record of the
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: era's lessons. In other words, long after the news headlines
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: of predatory bosses fade, movies like The Assistant or Promising
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: Young Women will remain to remind future viewers of the
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: period when society finally said enough to men's abuse of power.
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: Many creators are openly intentional about this mission to society.
- 1:22:31Speaker 2: Finally said enough about men's abuse of power, as if
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: this hasn't been consistent throughout history that when men abused women,
- 1:22:41Speaker 2: they were subject to censure by other men, like this
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: is the wear guild. Women commanded more of a wear guild,
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: and not just for being physically hurt, but also sexually
- 1:22:57Speaker 2: offended against or take or And at the time, sexual
- 1:23:02Speaker 2: offense could be for things that we wouldn't well maybe
- 1:23:04Speaker 2: we would now right, being talked out of turn, talked
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: to out of turn by a man could be subject
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: to a fine under the wear guild system. So not
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: only women were protected physically against assault and violence like murder,
- 1:23:20Speaker 2: they were also their sexuality was protected in a way
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: that men's wasn't against defense. Okay, so men have protected
- 1:23:30Speaker 2: women against other men throughout all of human history. This
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: is the first time where I'm guessing we made a
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: women attempted to get rid of the idea of due
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: process and just make everything a social lynch mob. And
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: then they called that progress dismantling one of the fundamental
- 1:23:50Speaker 2: principles of an advanced civilization, due process is progress. For women.
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: This is why they this is why they weren't allowed
- 1:24:00Speaker 2: to vote. I'm just saying.
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: Many creators are openly intentional about this mission. Kitty Green,
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: writer director of The Assistant, based her film's grim portrayal
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: of a Weinstein like boss on real testimonies, and has
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: said she wanted male viewers to feel a tad uncomfortable.
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: A lot of men come out feeling very uncomfortable. Green
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: noted of audience reactions, adding, I think a little bit
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: of discomfort is what we need right now if we
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: want things to change again. Okay, so these are portrayals
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: of a Weinstein like boss based on real testimonies. But
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: if the testimonies were falling apart, which they appear to be,
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: then this is a film built on lies because you
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: just believed what you were told and you've made people
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: uncomfortable for no reason.
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: Yeah. That's another thing that we've done, honestly, is we
- 1:24:51Speaker 2: have actually maintained due process and presumption of innocence for
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: these people who have been accused by the Me Too
- 1:25:00Speaker 2: and in some cases partly vindicated. Now, Weinstein probably was
- 1:25:04Speaker 2: a sex pest, but did he actually sexually assault these women.
- 1:25:09Speaker 2: It's looking like No, Cosby definitely had some pretty degenerate
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: tastes in his sexual piccadellos, but it wasn't looking like
- 1:25:20Speaker 2: he assaulted anyone. And we have maintained this line for
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: years now. Okay, all right, just another thing we've done.
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: This essentially, what I'm saying, I always have to justify
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: your existence. Huh.
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: The other thing is too, is that like you know,
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: these films, they they do well with critics and like
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: the snobs in the filmmaking community space too, so that
- 1:25:49Speaker 1: encourages more people to make more movies like this. Like
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: when I was going to art school, if you can
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: be a really shitty artist, but if your art has
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: said something about the political climate, like whether it was
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: about you know, socialism being good or climate change or
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: feminism or race rights, then your shitty project would get
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: a higher grade and maybe even get displayed in a
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: gallery somewhere because you had the right opinions about stuff.
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: And what that did was it encouraged, if not straight
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: up manipulated students to making more content like that because
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: they wanted to like basically get the accolades for having
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: the right social opinions on things. And so I think
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: the same thing happens in film. This is why indie
- 1:26:35Speaker 1: movies I hate them so much, because they're almost always
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: a kind of like social commentary, which is almost always
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: a leftist one. And that's what they put out there,
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: and that's what succeeds, and that's what gets oscars, and
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: that's what gets you know, baptaz or whatever and so
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: what that it creates a cycle of everyone else doing
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: that too, and so you just get more of this
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: feminist crap than like authenticity. You get more of this
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: shit than anything that's real, Which is why you're not
- 1:27:05Speaker 1: gonna see movies that are about, you know, like the
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: truth about male suffering, whether it's homelessness or not having
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: access to children or whatever it is, Right, You're just
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: not gonna get that. It has to have something in
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: it that is, you know, friendly to the sensibilities of
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: people in the industry of filmmaking and that and their
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: viewpoints on the world. So and the more of those
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: boxes you can tick, the better your movie is gonna be,
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: the more praise is going to get. So all right, anyway.
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: Emerald Fennel, who wrote and directed Promising Young Woman, has
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: similarly explained that her film is a pointed response to
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: decades of endemic sexism. She deliberately filled it with situations
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: drawn from real life. There's nothing in it that isn't
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: extremely commonplace, Fennel said, emphasizing that the predatory behaviors depicted
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: are all too familiar in widespread. That commonality is precisely
- 1:28:02Speaker 1: the point. Her film suggests. The problem is all around
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: us in every nice guy at the bar, which is
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: obviously not true. But we already went over that.
- 1:28:12Speaker 2: So yeah, and there's a substantial amount of the problem
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: that women need to take responsibility for and increasing like
- 1:28:19Speaker 2: increasing that was like those numbers, forty to sixty seven
- 1:28:25Speaker 2: percent of sexual violence could be perpetrated by women. Those
- 1:28:29Speaker 2: numbers were from a decade and a half ago. The
- 1:28:33Speaker 2: millennial shift suggests that could have gotten even higher. And
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: it's not that that's true because we don't have the
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: science yet. It's that it could be true and we
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: don't know.
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: All right, Yep. The surge of female led vengeance tales
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: and social satires is so notable that even mainstream media
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: began to notice a new subgenre in a post hashtag
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: me too world, How better to find escape is fun
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: than by ruthlessly dispatching awful men at the Multiplex, equipped
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: the Washington Posts and Hornaday, what unfortunate name that is
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: commenting on the wave of films inviting audiences to revel
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: in women getting payback against brutish men. It's it's so
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: it's kind of sick, isn't it. Like do women really
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: I mean, I guess, I guess there's definitely a subset
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: of women that get off on that. Even men too,
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: actually that get off on that stuff.
- 1:29:28Speaker 2: Yeah. Like I remember being really annoyed at some piece
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: of fiction. I think it was sort of like a
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: modern Western TV series, and the guys were just like
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: every every man was sort of tainted, and then they
- 1:29:44Speaker 2: were predatory and the women were all basically victims. And
- 1:29:46Speaker 2: I was like, this is annoying. But there were guys
- 1:29:48Speaker 2: who in the discord who were like, nah, I'll take it.
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: I'm okay with this, or or actually it was a
- 1:29:57Speaker 2: it was a movie, to be honest, but it was
- 1:29:58Speaker 2: have a similar nature. And I realize it's because men
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: don't have a problem with admitting to the sexual violence
- 1:30:08Speaker 2: that men engage in, right, They're not going to sit
- 1:30:11Speaker 2: there and say that doesn't happen, or we don't have
- 1:30:15Speaker 2: to take responsibility for it insofar as preventing it happening,
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: protecting our female relatives, et cetera, right, and also taking
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: part in the altruism that prevents and punishes it. The
- 1:30:27Speaker 2: altruistic punishment basically cops and prosecutors, et cetera, jailers. Right.
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: So the men don't actually have a problem with these narratives.
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: Now I think they're starting to because now there's no
- 1:30:42Speaker 2: good guy that's actually fighting back, right and actually represents
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: the way that men should conduct themselves. So like a
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: lot of guys are getting more upset at this because
- 1:30:53Speaker 2: of the removal of that character. But for the most part,
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: and maybe that's something that's admirable about men, They are
- 1:31:01Speaker 2: okay with narratives in which men are sexually violent because
- 1:31:06Speaker 2: they recognize that men are responsible for their half of
- 1:31:10Speaker 2: sexually predatory behavior. It's women who have a problem with that,
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: not just recognizing it, but going so far as to
- 1:31:20Speaker 2: police it, to start shaming it. And again, this is
- 1:31:26Speaker 2: something that women were better at a generation.
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: Echo okay mm hmm, okay. From stylish rape revenge thrillers
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: like promising women to action flicks with female assassins mowing
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: down male abusers. Vengeance is presented as cathartic justice. These
- 1:31:47Speaker 1: movies have a clear emotional aim deliver satisfaction by punishing
- 1:31:51Speaker 1: or overcoming the onscreen avatars of so called toxic masculinity.
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: Porn Today noted that as gratifying as this can be,
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: it also has become formulaic, a dubious cycle of abusive
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: men and the women savagely getting their own back, to
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: the point where it's feeling monotonous and even like its
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: own form of toxicity. In short, flipping the gender script,
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: making women the heroes and men the villains. That's not
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: flipping the script. What are you talking about? When have
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: we had a period where women were the villains and
- 1:32:23Speaker 1: men were the heroes? When Yeah, I mean there are
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: individual examples of female villains, but it's not like a
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: whole you know, like a whole series of films where
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: all the women were evil and all the men were
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: good like that. Just what do you mean flipping the scripts?
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: I get it, I get it. This person's writing this.
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: They probably thought it was a clever turn of phrase.
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: It just doesn't make sense.
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: No, it doesn't, because met women were never universally cast
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: as villains. Maybe and I don't even honestly, if you
- 1:32:54Speaker 2: look back at older cinema, they weren't universally cast as
- 1:32:57Speaker 2: damsels either. No, they may not have gone toe to
- 1:33:01Speaker 2: toe with men physically, but they usually were competent in
- 1:33:05Speaker 2: other ways, which is why they were part of the story.
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: But yeah, it's uh, some feminists worry it creates a
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: new kind of caricature. Why do we have to care
- 1:33:17Speaker 2: about feminists worrying?
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: Why is it that it's feminism Because the rest of
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: the sentence says, in short, flipping the gender script, making
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: women and heroes and men the villains may redress and
- 1:33:30Speaker 1: age old imbalance. What are you talking about? What age
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: old imbalance? But if every story is framed as women good,
- 1:33:38Speaker 1: men bad, even some feminist worry it creates a new
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: kind of caricature. What do you mean, a new kind
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: of caricature? Like, you're all of this is presupposing quite
- 1:33:48Speaker 1: a bit before.
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: This happened, you know, yeah, you're you're you got a
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: lot of assumptions you're making here. There was never a
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: point in time where women were cast as villains and
- 1:33:58Speaker 2: men as heroes universally like this. This isn't flipping any script, right,
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: There's never a point in time where women were bad
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: and men were good, not in this not in any
- 1:34:11Speaker 2: kind of recent memory, certainly not during the Victorian era
- 1:34:14Speaker 2: when women were the angels of the house, and so
- 1:34:19Speaker 2: like this is this is just you're you're off in
- 1:34:21Speaker 2: your weeds here, You're like, oh, this this manufactured reality
- 1:34:25Speaker 2: doesn't doesn't make sense to me. It's manufactured. My manufactured
- 1:34:30Speaker 2: reality is correct.
- 1:34:31Speaker 5: Like what.
- 1:34:33Speaker 2: Even its own form of toxicity? Oh and uh, I
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: like monotonous and formulaic. Yeah, enjoy, you're boring regurgitated paint
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: by numbers movies everyone, because that's what you're getting for
- 1:34:47Speaker 2: the rest of eternity. No nuance, no character development, just
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: the same thing, over and over and over again. We're
- 1:34:55Speaker 2: all going to be occupying our little cell in the
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: intersectional ziggurat being fed the same lukewarm problem for the
- 1:35:03Speaker 2: rest of eternity. Okay.
- 1:35:07Speaker 1: I wonder if this period of films will be looked
- 1:35:10Speaker 1: back on as a kind of exploitation period. Like in
- 1:35:16Speaker 1: the seventies we had black exploitation movies and they were
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: all like low budget movies that featured black man, black
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: casts and black man characters. And then there was what
- 1:35:26Speaker 1: I guess you ever heard of Bruce Floitation. Because of
- 1:35:29Speaker 1: the popularity of Bruce Lee, there were a bunch of
- 1:35:31Speaker 1: Bruce Lee imitators like Bruce Lai and Bruce Lay and
- 1:35:34Speaker 1: I swear to god, these are real, and they made
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: a bunch of martial arts films trying to pass them
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: off as Bruce Lee movies, but they weren't. It was
- 1:35:42Speaker 1: called Bruce Floitation. I wonder if they'll look back on
- 1:35:45Speaker 1: this and call it like me too'sploitation or something, where
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: these are all like these female feminist revenge movies that
- 1:35:51Speaker 1: nobody liked, and they were all like the same formulaic,
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: you know stories. They were just like you know, crank doubt.
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: So anyway, still it's clear that for now, Hollywood.
- 1:36:06Speaker 2: What Okay, I'm just really curious why we've offended Ryan
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: Yulopez so much by our existence. Okay, continue, I don't know.
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: I think he's just spurging out and there doesn't seem
- 1:36:19Speaker 1: to be any reason for it. But anyway, still, it's
- 1:36:23Speaker 1: clear that for now, Hollywood and the independent film world
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: sees itself as having a moral mandate. The entertainment industry was,
- 1:36:30Speaker 1: after all, ground zero for hashtag me too. No, all,
- 1:36:34Speaker 1: look all alaving me too. Did was exposed what we
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: already knew that there was a thing called the casting couch,
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: and there were plenty of women that were willing to
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: throw away their dignity to get a good role and
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: become super famous. And that's why they were all thanking
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: Harvey Weinstein for making their careers. And all it did
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: was expose that, and they knew that they were ashamed,
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: and so they tried to cover it up by accusing him.
- 1:36:56Speaker 1: It's just like what happens when a woman she on
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: her boyfriend or husband, and then when it looks like
- 1:37:03Speaker 1: she's gonna get caught, she accuses the boy the person
- 1:37:06Speaker 1: she cheated with, of raping her because it protects her
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: dignity and she doesn't care what happens to him in
- 1:37:13Speaker 1: the process. It's basically the same thing. So Pepito gives
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: us twenty five dollars, can we get some Italian hands
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: in the chat? Pepito is it's twenty five dollars and says,
- 1:37:25Speaker 1: flipping the script is what we should do. Good show, badgress. Thanks,
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: thank you, Pepito. All right, anyway, now it is using
- 1:37:35Speaker 1: the tools of storytelling to reinforce the movement's message. As
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: one Reuter's report put it, postwin scene, Hollywood is helping
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: to call out mad male behavior and embed these cautionary
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: tales into the culture. We are essentially watching a form
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: of cultural revenge play out on screen, a backlash against
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: generations of male dominated narratives. If the old Hollywood exalted
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: the suave leading man, the new Hollywood offensive jets him
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: to a trial by fire, sometimes literally. Yeah, but the
- 1:38:04Speaker 1: suave leading man did not exist as suave at the
- 1:38:09Speaker 1: expense of the women on screen.
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: No, that's the that's the that's the assumption at the
- 1:38:14Speaker 2: heart of this is that male characters in the past
- 1:38:17Speaker 2: existed at the expense of female characters. Actually, female characters
- 1:38:20Speaker 2: in past cinema were more interesting, more realized. They just didn't.
- 1:38:27Speaker 2: We weren't constantly at war with the men, the leading
- 1:38:29Speaker 2: men in their movies. This is again, this is not
- 1:38:35Speaker 2: a reversal a backlash. This is not a reversal, and
- 1:38:40Speaker 2: it's not a backlash because there's nothing to backlash against.
- 1:38:44Speaker 2: And the other thing is how it did Hollywood put
- 1:38:48Speaker 2: itself in position to lecture the rest of the world
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: about Hollywood's own problems.
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, exactly what they did the Me Too movement,
- 1:38:59Speaker 1: which which was a Hollywood problem. And again I would
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: say not a problem at all, because you don't have
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: to fuck the guy if you can just like hold
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: on to your fucking dignity and just say I'm not
- 1:39:10Speaker 1: doing that. But they didn't. There were women who said
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: they signed the contract, they sold their souls, and now
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: they want to blame everyone else. And they pivoted away
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: from Hollywood and they made me to everyone's problem. And
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: it worked because there were men in the workplace, you know,
- 1:39:26Speaker 1: getting fired left and right over every little slight yep or.
- 1:39:32Speaker 2: Even made up slights. Yeah, put out that's that's that's
- 1:39:38Speaker 2: a firing. Okay, Okay, how many more paragraphs is there?
- 1:39:43Speaker 2: Because we still have to go through byrony and I'm
- 1:39:45Speaker 2: assuming that.
- 1:39:46Speaker 1: You got uh, this is kind of long. It looks like, well,
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: let's just let's just okay. So they're basically toxic masculinity
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: from pop psychology to Hollywood gospel. So they talk a
- 1:39:57Speaker 1: little bit about we know what toxic masculinity is. Uh,
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: Hollywood's embrace this with.
- 1:40:05Speaker 2: Zeal We could you know what we could finish this
- 1:40:09Speaker 2: article at a later date. Yeah, for it goes forever.
- 1:40:16Speaker 2: So let's let's get.
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: Into by toxic masculinity. Come back to this later.
- 1:40:21Speaker 2: There's plenty in here, guys. You can go look at
- 1:40:23Speaker 2: the article yourself and model and just just a spoiler.
- 1:40:28Speaker 2: At the end, result of recognizing all of this ship
- 1:40:31Speaker 2: that's being put on men in cinema, he this individual
- 1:40:37Speaker 2: calls for let's let's just get along. Mm hmmm, like, okay,
- 1:40:44Speaker 2: don't don't recognize what group of people is pushing this
- 1:40:47Speaker 2: crap and call them out for it. Let's just all
- 1:40:50Speaker 2: get along, So men should just keep enduring it. I
- 1:40:54Speaker 2: guess all right, let's let's get into Barny. I could
- 1:40:58Speaker 2: use a little bit of a break from this. I
- 1:41:01Speaker 2: don't know if Barty is really a break.
- 1:41:04Speaker 1: No, no, it's a different kind of cringe. So this
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: is a Briardy Claire video called why is everyone quitting
- 1:41:11Speaker 1: birth control? Everyone? I guess you mean women?
- 1:41:16Speaker 2: But okay, because men don't really have any?
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: Yeah, because men don't really have any I mean, but okay.
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: So she's basically making the argument that women should I
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: don't know, like they need to have choice in birth
- 1:41:35Speaker 1: control or something. But let's see, let me see, let
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: me see here. All right, let's play a little bit
- 1:41:43Speaker 1: of the intro so you guys can get a sense
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: of it. Let me know a chicken to see if
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: the sound works. No, it's not working, so I gotta like,
- 1:41:50Speaker 1: I gotta do this over again. Stop sharing, and then
- 1:41:53Speaker 1: I got to reshare it? Just give me a second, guys,
- 1:41:56Speaker 1: for some reason, this happens every so often. But okay,
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: here we go.
- 1:42:01Speaker 6: Muvy Wade being overturned wasn't enough. Now they're coming for
- 1:42:04Speaker 6: birth control. No really, whilst everyone was distracted with the
- 1:42:08Speaker 6: Charlie Kirk discourse, which, let's be real, is still going on.
- 1:42:11Speaker 2: Firstly, on the same day the event happened, and everybody.
- 1:42:13Speaker 1: So Charlie Kirk getting assassinated is a distraction? Okay, all right?
- 1:42:19Speaker 1: They killer guy? Why are you distracted by that? Okay,
- 1:42:23Speaker 1: I see where you're at. Byroney, you have no soul,
- 1:42:25Speaker 1: your demon. All right, let's keep going.
- 1:42:27Speaker 6: Straight to talking about it.
- 1:42:29Speaker 4: Senator.
- 1:42:29Speaker 6: Republicans are voted to block the release of the Epstein files,
- 1:42:32Speaker 6: and the Trump administration told New York Times that birth
- 1:42:34Speaker 6: controls such as hormonal implants, the pill and iud's that
- 1:42:37Speaker 6: those are actually abortions. Jessica FIALENTI was the person I
- 1:42:40Speaker 6: originally heard this from, and I'm going to link their
- 1:42:42Speaker 6: substeck for you down below along.
- 1:42:44Speaker 2: With their Instagram.
- 1:42:45Speaker 6: As this guy said on my last video, Bye bye.
- 1:42:47Speaker 6: Aud's birth control and abortions first at South Carolina, hopefully
- 1:42:51Speaker 6: next sits all of America hold women accountable again.
- 1:42:54Speaker 2: I just I, just a couple of days ago, responded
- 1:42:58Speaker 2: to there was a tweet by a woman who said
- 1:43:00Speaker 2: that real men take responsibility for a single woman's children,
- 1:43:05Speaker 2: So essentially, real men take responsibility for the effects of
- 1:43:09Speaker 2: someone else's sex life. Yep, but women can't take responsibility
- 1:43:15Speaker 2: for the effects of their own sex life. Okay, now,
- 1:43:18Speaker 2: I'm pro choice, but I don't necessarily agree with government
- 1:43:23Speaker 2: funding that choice or offloading the responsibility for your sex
- 1:43:28Speaker 2: life onto other tax payers they don't like. They're not
- 1:43:34Speaker 2: obligated to pay for your entertainment. And as far as
- 1:43:37Speaker 2: I can tell it, you guys just can consider sex
- 1:43:41Speaker 2: to be entertainment. You don't consider it to be a
- 1:43:42Speaker 2: human right. If you did, you'd have a completely different
- 1:43:45Speaker 2: attitude towards in cells you consider it to be entertainment,
- 1:43:49Speaker 2: why should anyone have to pay for your entertainment? Or
- 1:43:52Speaker 2: the consequences are preventing the consequences of your entertainment to yourself.
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:44:00Speaker 2: Like they're not saying that this stuff won't exist for
- 1:44:03Speaker 2: you to pay for. They just don't want to pay
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: for it themselves. They don't want to pay for it
- 1:44:09Speaker 2: for the other people in their nation, and they don't
- 1:44:12Speaker 2: want to pay for it abroad. As an a narco capitalist,
- 1:44:18Speaker 2: even though I'm pro choice, I agree with those sentiments.
- 1:44:22Speaker 2: Nobody should have to pay for the consequences of your
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: entertainment on yourself.
- 1:44:28Speaker 1: Okay, I don't think that's inconsistent with being like an
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: end cap at all. Because what Barrity Claire is arguing
- 1:44:38Speaker 1: for and a lot of these women Jessica Vlenti, that's
- 1:44:42Speaker 1: a name I haven't heard in a while. There, they
- 1:44:46Speaker 1: are saying that this should be paid for by the state,
- 1:44:50Speaker 1: which is slavery.
- 1:44:54Speaker 2: Yeah, like like nobody has to pay for no, the
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: rest of the world does not have to pay or
- 1:45:00Speaker 2: your destruction, yeah, like you're your your your chosen desire.
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: Your your your irresponsibility.
- 1:45:11Speaker 2: Well or even funding funding your destruction to the society
- 1:45:15Speaker 2: that gives you all these rights. Like Okay, I just
- 1:45:18Speaker 2: wanted to say, because people are like, oh, Ryan Low
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: Lopez was it Lopez? Yeah, got owned. I just wanted
- 1:45:25Speaker 2: him to present his argument, that's all, Like I didn't.
- 1:45:28Speaker 2: I mean, he's all he did was just sit there
- 1:45:30Speaker 2: and feel, vibe, like create, like add his his feelings
- 1:45:36Speaker 2: to the There was no argument. No, I'm like disappointed.
- 1:45:39Speaker 2: Where was your argument? Why didn't you present an argument?
- 1:45:42Speaker 2: You kept saying you had one? Okay, yeah, okay, Like
- 1:45:48Speaker 2: I have an argument. Well we'll share it, Like, share
- 1:45:52Speaker 2: it with the class. Please. I have an argument and
- 1:45:54Speaker 2: it's it's perfect. It'll totally annihilate, blow you out of
- 1:45:58Speaker 2: the water. You'll realize that you're completely lame. Okay, Well
- 1:46:02Speaker 2: share it with the class.
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: Yeah, no argument anyway, mongering. I don't think. I don't
- 1:46:08Speaker 1: think that Trump is going to make birth control illegal
- 1:46:13Speaker 1: or something. I think that states have whatever right, they
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: have the right to do whatever they want, and some
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: of them may do that. But that's your Australian what
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: do you care? Yeah, anyway, okay, so I'll play the
- 1:46:26Speaker 1: rest of this clip.
- 1:46:27Speaker 6: Accountable for medical access. What is actually wanted is for
- 1:46:31Speaker 6: us to lose control about autonomy. This topic was voted
- 1:46:34Speaker 6: by my patron.
- 1:46:37Speaker 2: Why do I have to pay for your entertainment? Byrony?
- 1:46:40Speaker 2: Aren't you a lesbian? Why do I have to pay
- 1:46:44Speaker 2: for them the police to stop your lesbian lover from
- 1:46:47Speaker 2: beating the ship out of you?
- 1:46:50Speaker 1: Yeah? Well, I think she's supposed to be. I think
- 1:46:53Speaker 1: she's married, but queer or something.
- 1:46:55Speaker 2: Who knows wherever she's married to. Unless that's a woman,
- 1:46:59Speaker 2: it's a dude. It's a dude. Okay.
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: Maybe she has talked about her husband in other videos.
- 1:47:06Speaker 1: That's the only reason why I know.
- 1:47:07Speaker 2: Wow. Well, either this is a complete grift and she
- 1:47:11Speaker 2: just knows how to make money, which I hope for
- 1:47:14Speaker 2: his sake that's what it is, or this is this
- 1:47:19Speaker 2: is not gonna end well for him.
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:47:22Speaker 6: Okay, taking some cookies because I think we only need
- 1:47:26Speaker 6: a sweet trait. It's not my recipe. I've just kind of.
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: All right, let me uh really really okay, all right, fine, pink,
- 1:47:36Speaker 2: I understand. But that pink, that pepto bismal pink, that
- 1:47:41Speaker 2: queasy stomach pink that you don't know if you should
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: put your your your freaking face, your button the toilet
- 1:47:48Speaker 2: pink like oh good lord, mm hmmm. I just found
- 1:47:53Speaker 2: that pink offensive.
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: I get it. Everything about her as offensive to me.
- 1:47:59Speaker 6: What did she get back so much so that she
- 1:48:01Speaker 6: had to put a stop to it very quickly afterwards?
- 1:48:03Speaker 6: Because why someone please think of the children.
- 1:48:07Speaker 1: I guess was a singer who was distributing morning after
- 1:48:11Speaker 1: pills at her concerts. I think it's weird. It's weird, weird, Like, yeah,
- 1:48:20Speaker 1: I guess Bernie Claire would just think that's sex positive
- 1:48:23Speaker 1: or something. But I think it's really strange. I would
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: feel really strange. Til Deer says she's like most queer people,
- 1:48:31Speaker 1: totally straight, but with extra steps. Again Victim Cloud, Yes, absolutely,
- 1:48:35Speaker 1: she's married to a man. She's only involved with men,
- 1:48:39Speaker 1: but she calls himself queer. And what are you gonna
- 1:48:42Speaker 1: do argue against it? You can't. But she's doing all
- 1:48:46Speaker 1: of the heterosexual stuff, all of it except making babies probably,
- 1:48:51Speaker 1: And you know what I'm I'm for that.
- 1:48:54Speaker 2: We don't where DoD til Deer send his message.
- 1:48:58Speaker 1: He's in the chat.
- 1:49:00Speaker 2: I don't see the message.
- 1:49:01Speaker 1: I see it. You gotta switch the live chat maybe
- 1:49:05Speaker 1: instead of top.
- 1:49:06Speaker 2: Chat, of course, Oh yeah, there is.
- 1:49:11Speaker 1: I don't know why YouTube even has a top chat.
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: I think it's just another way to filter people out.
- 1:49:15Speaker 2: But yeah, I didn't even realize a live chat.
- 1:49:18Speaker 1: If you're looking at YouTube otherwise, you'll miss some comments
- 1:49:22Speaker 1: and I don't know why.
- 1:49:23Speaker 2: We'll fascinating. Oh, by the way, if you want to
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: send a comment and not have it get get dead
- 1:49:31Speaker 2: ended in YouTube's comment labyrinth system, feed the Badger dot
- 1:49:35Speaker 2: com slash just the tip, very best way to send
- 1:49:38Speaker 2: us a a tip and send a comment with that
- 1:49:41Speaker 2: tip if you so desire. Feed the Badger dot com
- 1:49:45Speaker 2: slash just the tip. All right, let's keep going, all right?
- 1:49:50Speaker 6: The pill and the impant or the rod and not
- 1:49:53Speaker 6: just prescribe for best control reasons. Yet these are the
- 1:49:56Speaker 6: ones which are being targeted.
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? Are you is not prescribed for
- 1:50:02Speaker 2: anything but birth controllers? Are you?
- 1:50:05Speaker 1: No? No, she said they're not. Well, she's arguing that
- 1:50:09Speaker 1: IUDs are not only for birth control, but they're.
- 1:50:14Speaker 2: A freaking thing like that in your womb to make
- 1:50:17Speaker 2: things better in any conceivable capacity.
- 1:50:22Speaker 1: I don't know what that is, but it doesn't look
- 1:50:24Speaker 1: pleasant at all.
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: I've had one. It is not it is absolutely not.
- 1:50:33Speaker 2: I cannot what the hell is she on?
- 1:50:37Speaker 1: Well, she's trying to make the argument that the patriarchy
- 1:50:42Speaker 1: is trying to destroy women, so she has to like
- 1:50:44Speaker 1: everything follows from her assumptions. That's all. But anyway, your
- 1:50:49Speaker 1: guide to.
- 1:50:49Speaker 2: Birth, Actually I just want to I want to point vasectomy,
- 1:50:52Speaker 2: tubal ligation, long acting. You mean, end of freaking fertility? Okay, yeah,
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: let us go.
- 1:51:01Speaker 1: Let's keep what we're talking about.
- 1:51:04Speaker 6: Yeah, these are the ones which are being targeted. Lots
- 1:51:06Speaker 6: of people are put on birth control for a variety
- 1:51:08Speaker 6: of reasons, from being a teenager onwards, from acne to
- 1:51:12Speaker 6: PCs to horminal issues and demetriosis PMDD and more. Birth
- 1:51:17Speaker 6: control in the form of an ied road or the
- 1:51:19Speaker 6: pill have been incredibly instrumental in allowing people to be
- 1:51:22Speaker 6: on to actually live their day to day lives more comfortably,
- 1:51:25Speaker 6: I would say more comfortably, and not actually comfortably, because.
- 1:51:29Speaker 2: With these women who are super firm, married to men
- 1:51:33Speaker 2: and freaking out about doing like just being that way.
- 1:51:42Speaker 1: Like it's an act, it's part of the performance.
- 1:51:44Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, I'm.
- 1:51:48Speaker 1: Just like me. She bakes and stuff.
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: If anything, if anything, women like this have less to fear,
- 1:51:54Speaker 2: supposedly than women like me, and yet they're out here
- 1:51:59Speaker 2: fearing what I don't know, Like I don't fear stupid
- 1:52:03Speaker 2: things like the potential of the handmaiden's tail, And yet
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: these women do. And yet the honestly they probably willing
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: will we wear the stupid costume and trot themselves out
- 1:52:14Speaker 2: in public and they're probably perfectly happy staying at home
- 1:52:19Speaker 2: doing female jobs. You got it? I never get I
- 1:52:22Speaker 2: don't get this. Yeah, honestly, the only way this makes
- 1:52:28Speaker 2: sense is if this is, as Nature said, tools for
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: the management management of men. There's tools for the management
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: of men. That's it. This has absolutely no reality outside
- 1:52:39Speaker 2: of that. Like they just they just make mouth noises.
- 1:52:42Speaker 2: They don't care if they're logical, rational, if that makes
- 1:52:45Speaker 2: sense historically, if they're supported, if the arguments are coherent.
- 1:52:50Speaker 2: They just make mouth noises and men go yep, I'll
- 1:52:52Speaker 2: do that, right on it, right on it, dear.
- 1:52:58Speaker 6: Okay, all right, if you know one of the lucky
- 1:53:01Speaker 6: people out there who doesn't suffer from painful periods and
- 1:53:04Speaker 6: all of the horrors that go along with it, how
- 1:53:07Speaker 6: does it feel to be God's favorite? I got on
- 1:53:09Speaker 6: the pill at the age of sixteen or seventeen years
- 1:53:11Speaker 6: old due to my inability to go to school because
- 1:53:14Speaker 6: I was in such excruciating levels of pain at struggling
- 1:53:17Speaker 6: with migraines all sorts. A couple of years later, Actually, my.
- 1:53:20Speaker 2: Oriegion says, wouldn't it just be easier not to have sex? Yes,
- 1:53:23Speaker 2: that's right. It's so critical that women get birth control
- 1:53:28Speaker 2: for sex that they hate that they constantly complain with
- 1:53:32Speaker 2: people hate right, with people, they hate sex. They constantly
- 1:53:35Speaker 2: complain about, Oh, it's so shitty, Well, then stop having it.
- 1:53:39Speaker 2: It's like it's like you go to the amusement park,
- 1:53:45Speaker 2: you demand people make me pay for your ticket, and
- 1:53:48Speaker 2: then you complain about every freaking ride in it. Well,
- 1:53:51Speaker 2: then don't go. Why do I have to pay for
- 1:53:53Speaker 2: you to be miserable? Like, solve everyone's problems? Stop having sex.
- 1:54:00Speaker 2: You don't like it, you say it's bad, you say
- 1:54:03Speaker 2: it's miserable. Well, why are you forcing people to pay
- 1:54:07Speaker 2: for your miserable experiences? Like there's we could just solve
- 1:54:12Speaker 2: everyone's problem. We could solve the taxpayer not wanting to
- 1:54:15Speaker 2: pay for you, and you could solve the fact that
- 1:54:18Speaker 2: you don't enjoy it anyway, Stop doing it, Okay, go
- 1:54:25Speaker 2: find something entertaining that actually entertains.
- 1:54:27Speaker 6: You as well, Because health issue is so fun to
- 1:54:32Speaker 6: deal with it.
- 1:54:36Speaker 2: Okay, I gotta confirm this is isn't I What health
- 1:54:41Speaker 2: issues do I U d's fix address address? That's a
- 1:54:52Speaker 2: good one of reproduction, primarily used for consterception. Oh they do, okay,
- 1:55:06Speaker 2: but you address several non reproductive health issues.
- 1:55:11Speaker 1: Are they the only way to do that? Hormonal IUD
- 1:55:15Speaker 1: are is the only way to address.
- 1:55:18Speaker 2: Oh. Oh, so you put it in and it releases hormones.
- 1:55:24Speaker 2: She had an IUD inserted to release hormones. You realize
- 1:55:27Speaker 2: that IUDs make hormonal IUDs can alleviate menstrual crabs by
- 1:55:33Speaker 2: thinning the uterine lining managed symptoms of So they're not
- 1:55:39Speaker 2: iud specifically, they're hormonal i u ds. Okay, all right,
- 1:55:45Speaker 2: that would have been nice to clarify. So it's not
- 1:55:47Speaker 2: actually the IUD that's doing it, it's the hormones. Yeah,
- 1:55:54Speaker 2: your period's on birth control. Oh, I hope you didn't
- 1:55:56Speaker 2: meet your partner while you were on birth control. My dear, ever,
- 1:56:00Speaker 2: go off it because you're not going to like what
- 1:56:05Speaker 2: you smell when you go off.
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: Let me just jump ahead to the next time code.
- 1:56:11Speaker 1: So she basically talks about the legalities of bodily autonomy
- 1:56:15Speaker 1: and then she used a bunch of TV show and
- 1:56:17Speaker 1: movie clips because those are her primary references. And then
- 1:56:22Speaker 1: she has a section where basically she's saying they're gonna
- 1:56:25Speaker 1: be rolling back rights. So because you know, that's that's
- 1:56:28Speaker 1: been that's been the narrative for well since the beginning. Basically,
- 1:56:33Speaker 1: any day now, ladies are gonna lose all their rights.
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: Any day now. Oh, I got a big super chow
- 1:56:38Speaker 1: big one from Dan fid Philippo for one hundred dollars.
- 1:56:43Speaker 1: Thank you, Dan. I don't have any soundboard stuff yet.
- 1:56:47Speaker 1: So and he says the question of abortion for women
- 1:56:50Speaker 1: is commonly mishandled. People, especially on the right, frame it
- 1:56:54Speaker 1: in terms of whether it's good or bad. When the
- 1:56:56Speaker 1: question should be do women deserve to have abortions? And
- 1:56:59Speaker 1: the answer is no, but for political capital purposes, we
- 1:57:03Speaker 1: shouldn't find it.
- 1:57:05Speaker 2: Uh, you're right, they don't. Yeah, because this is I
- 1:57:11Speaker 2: don't understand it, right, I mean, you've got a good point.
- 1:57:16Speaker 2: This is allowing women access to entertainment that makes them miserable, Like,
- 1:57:24Speaker 2: wouldn't it be better to just be like, yeah, don't,
- 1:57:27Speaker 2: just don't, just don't have sex. You constantly complain about
- 1:57:31Speaker 2: the results, you constantly complain about the activity. It apparently
- 1:57:34Speaker 2: makes you miserable and traumatizes you. So why are you
- 1:57:39Speaker 2: expecting people to pay for you to have access to it? Okay,
- 1:57:47Speaker 2: just let's just let's just let's end the farce. We
- 1:57:52Speaker 2: don't have to pay for your birth control or your abortion,
- 1:57:56Speaker 2: and you stop engaging in something that apparently makes you miserable.
- 1:58:00Speaker 2: When when men are no good at sex, you keep
- 1:58:04Speaker 2: saying constantly, but why do you seek them out to
- 1:58:07Speaker 2: the point where you make everybody else pay for the
- 1:58:09Speaker 2: consequences of your entertainment on yourself? It doesn't make sense
- 1:58:16Speaker 2: to me.
- 1:58:17Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, he wants a total abortion band with
- 1:58:24Speaker 5: no exceptions. He's supper bands that would not only criminalize
- 1:58:27Speaker 5: abortion but ban IVF, Trump and common forms of birth control, and.
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: That you've uh, speaker Mike Johnson, it was a well, yeah, speaker,
- 1:58:37Speaker 1: Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House. Okay, So no, not Trump.
- 1:58:42Speaker 2: Okay, Well again again, we're talking about a form of
- 1:58:46Speaker 2: entertainment that women universe like seem they seem to be
- 1:58:50Speaker 2: disappointed with. So perhaps you could go with forms of
- 1:58:53Speaker 2: entertainment that won't disappoint you as much, such as learning philosophy, learning,
- 1:58:58Speaker 2: advance calculus, predicate, mathematics, logic, doing art, writing, things that
- 1:59:05Speaker 2: aren't pornographic, could do all kinds of other entertaining things. Ladies.
- 1:59:11Speaker 2: Then this thing that you apparently do not find entertaining,
- 1:59:15Speaker 2: you rather find it miserable and traumatic. We'll stop doing it.
- 1:59:21Speaker 2: Why is it so important that women get this form
- 1:59:24Speaker 2: of entertainment when they don't find it entertaining? Why that's
- 1:59:30Speaker 2: so bloody important?
- 1:59:35Speaker 4: Okay, okay, it's a contraception and birth control like really
- 1:59:40Speaker 4: strews up female brains. By the way, every single one
- 1:59:43Speaker 4: of you need to make sure that your loved ones
- 1:59:44Speaker 4: are not on birth control.
- 1:59:45Speaker 2: The right to contraception.
- 1:59:47Speaker 1: Yeah, but okay, going back to this, this is Charlie Kirk,
- 1:59:50Speaker 1: by the way, which I think she's pretty I'm just
- 1:59:53Speaker 1: gonna say I think this is true. My gut tells
- 1:59:57Speaker 1: me she is sharing these clips of Charlie Kirk to
- 2:00:01Speaker 1: justify the murder of Charlie Kirk because if she can
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: demonstrate to her audience that he had the wrong kinds
- 2:00:08Speaker 1: of opinions, then their sympathy for his being murdered, and
- 2:00:13Speaker 1: like his children not having their father and his wife
- 2:00:17Speaker 1: not having her husband is justified because he said a
- 2:00:20Speaker 1: true thing about birth control. That's a true thing because
- 2:00:24Speaker 1: we have had Aidan Paladin on our show, and she
- 2:00:27Speaker 1: spoke at IC twenty nineteen and she made a video
- 2:00:30Speaker 1: on her own where she goes into the problems of
- 2:00:33Speaker 1: hormonal birth control, and these arguments were picked up by
- 2:00:36Speaker 1: other people like Sidney Watson, who also has a massive audience,
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: and she did a whole video on hormonal birth control
- 2:00:42Speaker 1: as well. Charlie Kirk is just saying what we have
- 2:00:45Speaker 1: been saying, and Berlie Claire is trying to use this again.
- 2:00:51Speaker 1: If it is the case that hormonal birth control is
- 2:00:55Speaker 1: screwing with women, and we know it is because we
- 2:00:58Speaker 1: have seen the data, you can Karen has said this
- 2:01:01Speaker 1: is herself. She's echoed this. When I started dating Lindsay
- 2:01:04Speaker 1: and I asked her if she was on the pill,
- 2:01:06Speaker 1: she said, and this was in twenty fifteen when I
- 2:01:08Speaker 1: met her, she said, I don't mess with my hormones,
- 2:01:12Speaker 1: so she knew that it wasn't good for you. And
- 2:01:15Speaker 1: he is just saying that like that is just something
- 2:01:18Speaker 1: that women should consider. But because Brier Declaire and feminists
- 2:01:23Speaker 1: think it's so important that women feel as though they
- 2:01:28Speaker 1: can just like you know, not get pregnant. They just
- 2:01:30Speaker 1: will fuck with their own bodies to do it. Then
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: they'll just have to permit that. And the funny thing
- 2:01:36Speaker 1: is is that they could in fact, it wasn't birth control.
- 2:01:40Speaker 1: Was it invented by a man?
- 2:01:41Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 2:01:42Speaker 1: Well yes, yeah, so they could literally use this as
- 2:01:46Speaker 1: another thing to blame men for. But they want birth
- 2:01:48Speaker 1: control bad enough that they're not willing to stop.
- 2:01:50Speaker 2: I don't want this is what I don't understand, Like,
- 2:01:54Speaker 2: at best, this seems to be a form of entertainment
- 2:01:57Speaker 2: that makes it isn't you don't find entertaining? Why are
- 2:02:00Speaker 2: you so obsessed with it?
- 2:02:02Speaker 4: Like?
- 2:02:03Speaker 2: Why are you so obsessed with it? And yes, birth
- 2:02:07Speaker 2: control has serious implications for mood disorders, and it doesn't
- 2:02:13Speaker 2: like it does have this side effect, this drawback, unless
- 2:02:17Speaker 2: you are somebody who experiences extremely painful periods. But that
- 2:02:20Speaker 2: is a medical condition, right, Okay, But I just wanted
- 2:02:24Speaker 2: to point out the tielder said it's time we must
- 2:02:26Speaker 2: repeal women. Yes, I agree, this is how we do it. Okay,
- 2:02:32Speaker 2: we get rid of the legal category woman. Everybody is
- 2:02:36Speaker 2: a man now, right, Everybody has the protections of a man. Okay,
- 2:02:42Speaker 2: that means, uh, if men have this protection, for example,
- 2:02:45Speaker 2: that they have the right to have their bathrooms based
- 2:02:47Speaker 2: on their genital configuration, men who are biological women will
- 2:02:52Speaker 2: still have that protection, so there'll still be like biological
- 2:02:55Speaker 2: male and biological female bathrooms and shit like that. And also,
- 2:03:00Speaker 2: so handicap men have their own Olympics, so women will
- 2:03:03Speaker 2: be classified as a form of handicap man and they
- 2:03:06Speaker 2: can have their own sports. So it's all good, except
- 2:03:09Speaker 2: that women and men have exactly the same rights, exactly
- 2:03:12Speaker 2: the same rights to birth control, exactly the same rights
- 2:03:16Speaker 2: to abortion, exactly the same rights to abandonment, exactly the
- 2:03:20Speaker 2: same rights to work. Everything is exactly the fucking same.
- 2:03:24Speaker 2: Let us repeal women. Let's get rid of them legal
- 2:03:28Speaker 2: category women, entirely remove it from existence. So but we
- 2:03:33Speaker 2: can still have medical categories of male and female, which
- 2:03:36Speaker 2: means that women can or females can still have differential
- 2:03:40Speaker 2: treatment based on the medical category that they're in, just
- 2:03:43Speaker 2: like you know, if you're if you're a medical a
- 2:03:45Speaker 2: man in a particular medical category, you're gonna have different
- 2:03:48Speaker 2: treatment and whatever. So we can still keep those medical differences,
- 2:03:52Speaker 2: but get rid of the social, political, and legal ones entirely.
- 2:03:57Speaker 2: Just have one category of person, which is man. There
- 2:04:01Speaker 2: you go like mankind, mankind. That's it.
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: Well, I unfortunately I have to go, oh okay, we
- 2:04:11Speaker 1: have to do this. We can do the rest of
- 2:04:13Speaker 1: this later, but yeah, I have to go pick up Lindsay.
