Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: People just love to put us in categories, don't they.
- 0:07Speaker 1: If you're this and that, if you're that and this.
- 0:09Speaker 1: What's worse is, in real life, this happens all the time.
- 0:11Speaker 1: If you didn't support my side, my team, my group,
- 0:16Speaker 1: my whatever, you're somehow less of a person or a
- 0:20Speaker 1: bad person you ever run into. This happens all the time,
- 0:22Speaker 1: unfortunately in real life, and a big public example of
- 0:25Speaker 1: this just happened in a very viral clip from none
- 0:28Speaker 1: other than Michelle Obama and what she said this week.
- 0:32Speaker 1: She did it too, just very publicly, not one on one,
- 0:35Speaker 1: and let me throw out like the little disclaimer here.
- 0:37Speaker 1: I don't care if you voted for Obama. I don't
- 0:40Speaker 1: care who you support, what you think of her. I'm
- 0:42Speaker 1: using her example because it's a very public and very
- 0:44Speaker 1: viral example. Take it away, Michelle.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Well, as we saw in this past election, sadly, we
- 0:51Speaker 2: ain't ready. That's why I'm like, don't even look at
- 0:54Speaker 2: me about running, because you all are lying you're not
- 0:57Speaker 2: ready for a woman. You are not, So don't waste
- 1:01Speaker 2: my time. You know, we got a lot of growing
- 1:05Speaker 2: up to do.
- 1:07Speaker 1: So much for toning down the rhetoric. Huh now, what's
- 1:09Speaker 1: the assumption here, what's the implication? This country's not ready?
- 1:12Speaker 1: Anybody that didn't vote for Kama Law apparently not ready,
- 1:17Speaker 1: not not intelligent enough, You're you're biased here, maybe misogynistic,
- 1:20Speaker 1: you're this year that all the name calling, right, and
- 1:22Speaker 1: we were supposed to tone down the rhetoric. And again, I'll
- 1:24Speaker 1: say it again. I'm using her as an example because
- 1:26Speaker 1: she said it. No matter what your feelings are. But
- 1:28Speaker 1: it's a great example in a very public way of
- 1:31Speaker 1: what happens in real life. This happens, doesn't it. You
- 1:34Speaker 1: ever be called you ever get called a name simply
- 1:36Speaker 1: because they assumed you're something that you're not on their side,
- 1:39Speaker 1: on their team. This is all trickle down from identity politics,
- 1:42Speaker 1: and they put us all in boxes and teams and
- 1:44Speaker 1: all that other crap. Don't ever ever let them, don't
- 1:47Speaker 1: ever let them group you into something or consider you
- 1:50Speaker 1: a bad person because you didn't follow everything that they do.
- 1:53Speaker 1: You're an individual and you know that. So here's the
- 1:56Speaker 1: wicked wisdom mindset move the week. When you're faced with
- 1:58Speaker 1: this kind of thing in public or one on one,
- 2:01Speaker 1: first thing is an internal check, right, and you're asking
- 2:04Speaker 1: yourself a question is that me? Like? And I'll use
- 2:07Speaker 1: them Michelle Obama example, did I not vote for a
- 2:10Speaker 1: woman simply because she's a woman. It's not gonna take
- 2:12Speaker 1: too long. A couple of seconds before you come back
- 2:14Speaker 1: with this to yourself. No, that's not me. I'm an individual.
- 2:18Speaker 1: I make up my own mind. I judge people on
- 2:20Speaker 1: the basis of their character, not anything else. That's the
- 2:22Speaker 1: first part. And then here's the move. What if you
- 2:25Speaker 1: are actually faced with this, right, let's just again, I'll
- 2:28Speaker 1: use that example of the election. Oh, oh you didn't
- 2:33Speaker 1: vote for se and so because she's a woman. This
- 2:36Speaker 1: is how you respond to that. And I will tell
- 2:38Speaker 1: you in real life how it actually happens. This is
- 2:40Speaker 1: pretty devastating to come back from and they're not gonna
- 2:43Speaker 1: have much response after this. But if they do, just
- 2:45Speaker 1: ignore it because they're just trying to rally you up.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Oh you didn't vote for sell and so because she's
- 2:49Speaker 1: a woman, this is the move.
- 2:52Speaker 2: No.
- 2:53Speaker 1: I can think of a handful four or five women
- 2:55Speaker 1: I'd vote four, just not that one. That's a great
- 2:59Speaker 1: response and it actually works. Let me know the comments.
- 3:01Speaker 1: If you've ever used it in real life, try it.
- 3:03Speaker 1: It's pretty tough. To come back from
