Transcript
- 2:09Speaker 1: Hello everybody, and welcome to Honey Badger Radio. My name
- 2:13Speaker 1: is Brian here with Allison, and this is maintaining frame
- 2:16Speaker 1: number one thirty one. Are we the baddies where we
- 2:20Speaker 1: will be responding to a cut a patron request?
- 2:27Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean the thing is that the patrons
- 2:31Speaker 2: give me a lot of suggestions and I choose one
- 2:34Speaker 2: and then we do it. And yeah, it's very appreciated
- 2:37Speaker 2: and completely on an unrelated note. Usually they help us
- 2:42Speaker 2: out for the fundraiser. I'm just saying that it's completely unrelated. Boy,
- 2:49Speaker 2: that sounded not suspicious at all, I know, right, all right,
- 2:54Speaker 2: go ahead, Brian.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Uh, yeah, so I'm just making sure everything's working. It
- 2:58Speaker 1: looks like it says. Yeah. So this is a video
- 3:01Speaker 1: by I guess he was, you know, a pretty big
- 3:05Speaker 1: or prominent atheist YouTuber back in the day. He's got
- 3:11Speaker 1: about a eight hundred thousand subs so still you know,
- 3:13Speaker 1: nothing to sneeze at named dark Matter twenty five, twenty five,
- 3:17Speaker 1: and I think he's facing a bit of a conundrum.
- 3:23Speaker 1: But but I mean that could that's a sort of
- 3:25Speaker 1: a secondary discussion. But essentially he made a video called
- 3:29Speaker 1: why I Stopped being anti woke and this was well,
- 3:35Speaker 1: I don't know if who's the person who put this
- 3:36Speaker 1: through is it's great indoors.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Uh No, it was actual Richard Berre who made this.
- 3:41Speaker 1: Okay, it was Richard Beerre that put this. Did did
- 3:43Speaker 1: he have like I'm just curious because I kind of
- 3:45Speaker 1: want to know like how I should come at this discussion,
- 3:48Speaker 1: Like did he say like why he wants us to
- 3:52Speaker 1: talk about this, like what what his what his thinking
- 3:56Speaker 1: on it is?
- 3:57Speaker 2: Or if he wants No, No, I'm Richard beer often
- 4:00Speaker 2: doesn't elaborate. It's it's great indoors because he's so Dutch.
- 4:05Speaker 2: He's like, I need you to do this and.
- 4:07Speaker 1: This it's not Richard Bierre. It's great Indoors.
- 4:09Speaker 2: No, No, it wasn't it was it was Richard Bierre.
- 4:11Speaker 2: I'm saying that Richard Bierre tends to not elaborate, not
- 4:16Speaker 2: really get too much, just be like, hey, here's something
- 4:19Speaker 2: you could respond to without much commentary. It's great indoors
- 4:23Speaker 2: that does the significant amount of contextual information about what
- 4:27Speaker 2: specifically he thinks comments. Yeah, so it's a it's a
- 4:34Speaker 2: bit of a different style. It's you, We're I guess
- 4:36Speaker 2: we're just whatever we want The overall discussion is whether
- 4:41Speaker 2: or not we should I guess, be opposed to woke.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Correctly, he's basically making the claim that he is no
- 4:51Speaker 1: longer opposed to woke, which implies that he once was.
- 4:56Speaker 1: And I think that one way to look at this
- 4:59Speaker 1: before we jump in is that people are saying woke,
- 5:02Speaker 1: but they're really just talking about feminism as it just
- 5:06Speaker 1: basically gets applied in the broader in the broader lexicon.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Like you take like the framework that feminism created and
- 5:15Speaker 1: you see the success of that, and then people go, oh, well,
- 5:19Speaker 1: what if we took that and we applied it in
- 5:21Speaker 1: this other way? And then you that's where you get
- 5:24Speaker 1: intersectional feminism, which is still feminism, right, just intersectional, and
- 5:30Speaker 1: you end up with the more simplified version of that,
- 5:34Speaker 1: which is called woke.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Intersectional feminism basically is just creating a hierarchy. Women are
- 5:41Speaker 2: still well above men, well above all them because eventually
- 5:45Speaker 2: every category of men in the intersectional hierarchy is considered
- 5:50Speaker 2: to be the man of their respective group, the white
- 5:53Speaker 2: men of their respective group. So it's all just feminism.
- 5:57Speaker 1: I've been saying that for years, like ever since intersectionality happened.
- 6:01Speaker 1: When when Black Lives Matter was going on in twenty
- 6:04Speaker 1: twenty and they're burning cities town and I was like,
- 6:06Speaker 1: I just went to the website and they they they're
- 6:09Speaker 1: they're feminists. I mean, it's a feminist movement. Yeah, we
- 6:12Speaker 1: did that. We went to the website. We looked at.
- 6:14Speaker 2: The well before the Black Lives Matter Summer of Love.
- 6:19Speaker 1: And we yeah, before that, before that, Yes, it was
- 6:22Speaker 1: like around the Michael Brown Trayvon Martin days and yeah,
- 6:26Speaker 1: we've been saying it for the whole time. Now it's
- 6:30Speaker 1: basically become so like commonly used these days, you know, wokeism,
- 6:37Speaker 1: not intersectionality. I think intersectionality as a term is like,
- 6:41Speaker 1: you know, it's more academic. People don't use it in
- 6:44Speaker 1: their day to day. But when they say woke, that's
- 6:46Speaker 1: what they're talking about. The term about intersectional feminism, fourth
- 6:49Speaker 1: wave feminism, which is the current feminism we're in right now.
- 6:54Speaker 1: So anyway, so when Dark Matter twenty twenty five says
- 7:02Speaker 1: he is stopping being anti woke, he's basically saying I'm
- 7:05Speaker 1: gonna be a feminist again. Whether he knows it or not,
- 7:08Speaker 1: but I think he does. I think on some level,
- 7:11Speaker 1: a lot of these guys it's really hard to let
- 7:13Speaker 1: that go. And I don't mean feminism itself. I mean
- 7:16Speaker 1: like the the identity, Yeah, the identity of judging yourself.
- 7:24Speaker 2: In terms of protecting and providing what a surprise. Men
- 7:27Speaker 2: have trouble letting that go.
- 7:29Speaker 1: Yeah, well women do too, because it's in their own interests.
- 7:32Speaker 1: But like, definitely, you know it's it, and that's the
- 7:35Speaker 1: thing he's he would have to reject the foundation on
- 7:39Speaker 1: which feminism was built. So it's not even really feminism.
- 7:44Speaker 1: There's like something deeper that has to be challenged. But anyway,
- 7:49Speaker 1: so this video is called why I Stopped being Andy Woke.
- 7:51Speaker 1: I got some time codes. We grab my notepad here
- 7:55Speaker 1: there's some somebody spamming me, oh pro Israel, asking for
- 8:01Speaker 1: more money.
- 8:02Speaker 3: But anyway, the thing's okay.
- 8:08Speaker 2: It's on Sunday. Sorry, guys. Please, if you have any

- 8:52Speaker 2: Thank you Anonymous, anonymously great and yeah, so thank you,
- 9:01Speaker 2: and uh, let's get started.
- 9:03Speaker 1: All right. So first he's going to try to define woke,
- 9:10Speaker 1: so we know, for you always got to start with
- 9:11Speaker 1: definding your terms. And well, I think that's worthy of
- 9:14Speaker 1: some discussions. I'm gonna play this clip.
- 9:18Speaker 4: Yeah, is being woke good or bad? Well, it depends
- 9:27Speaker 4: greatly on what you mean by woke. Now, I've scoured
- 9:31Speaker 4: the internet for a consistent definition of woke, and what
- 9:35Speaker 4: I found was that perception of what the term stands
- 9:40Speaker 4: for is very clearly demarketed along political affiliation. Left leaning
- 9:45Speaker 4: people tend toward an approximation of the first definition in
- 9:50Speaker 4: Webster's dictionary, which is quote aware of and actively attentive
- 9:55Speaker 4: to important societal facts and issues, especially issues of racial
- 9:59Speaker 4: and social justice, while right leaning. People tend towards the
- 10:05Speaker 4: second definition quote politically liberal or progressive, as in matters
- 10:11Speaker 4: of racial and social justice, especially in a way that
- 10:15Speaker 4: is considered unreasonable or extreme.
- 10:18Speaker 2: Un Okay, what is?
- 10:22Speaker 1: What is? What is? What does it mean to you? Alison?
- 10:27Speaker 2: Well, honestly, there's one thing to be concerned about issues
- 10:32Speaker 2: of progressive justice, and there's another thing to be inching
- 10:39Speaker 2: towards criminalizing your fellow man and regarding them as a
- 10:43Speaker 2: problem that needs to be corrected. And the other thing
- 10:48Speaker 2: is that I notice that anyone with a shred of power,
- 10:53Speaker 2: institutional power, that's media corporation's government, will use these terms
- 11:00Speaker 2: in order to offload their responsibilities onto their employees and
- 11:05Speaker 2: their customers. I don't know if you've you've noticed that.
- 11:08Speaker 2: And while I suspect that they have no genuine interest
- 11:15Speaker 2: in being progressive in caring about anyone, and if they do,
- 11:18Speaker 2: their interest is in caring about the smallest sub section
- 11:21Speaker 2: of the population in order to justify not caring about
- 11:25Speaker 2: and actively prosecute, persecuting, and blaming the largest amount of
- 11:28Speaker 2: people possible. So to me, to my mind, woke has
- 11:33Speaker 2: nothing to do with actually helping people. I think people
- 11:36Speaker 2: are helped by strong individual rights. Okay, woke has everything
- 11:41Speaker 2: to do with criminalizing your fellow men and encouraging or
- 11:46Speaker 2: even supporting further and further government intrusion over individual rights
- 11:53Speaker 2: and destruction of individual rights. So to me, woke is
- 11:56Speaker 2: basically using the collective to destroy the individual. And at
- 12:01Speaker 2: the end of the day, we're all individuals, right, We
- 12:05Speaker 2: are all individuals, so that when we buy into these
- 12:10Speaker 2: collective collective ideologies and buy into the idea that we
- 12:16Speaker 2: give up our individual rights in order to in order
- 12:20Speaker 2: to save abstractions, we are all degrading everybody's position in society,
- 12:27Speaker 2: including the people we supposedly are helping. So I would
- 12:32Speaker 2: say that WOKE is basically using these collective ideas of victimhood,
- 12:37Speaker 2: collective ideas of guilt to erode individual liberties. But individual
- 12:41Speaker 2: liberties are what protect us ultimately, all of us. Okay.
- 12:46Speaker 2: So that's my opinion, that's the way I'm seeing it used.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Now he might be talking about the definition itself. I mean,
- 12:54Speaker 2: you could look at the words definition and say, hey,
- 12:56Speaker 2: it's advocacy for these different groups of people that are
- 13:01Speaker 2: allegedly marginalized except for men.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Statistically, exactly what he did he said, he just went
- 13:07Speaker 1: to Webster's dictionary, and basically he's saying, these people say
- 13:11Speaker 1: this thing, and these people say this thing, and they're
- 13:14Speaker 1: both in the dictionary and they're and I don't know,
- 13:16Speaker 1: maybe he's going to say they're both wrong and I'm
- 13:18Speaker 1: floating above everything, or he's going to side with one,
- 13:22Speaker 1: probably the first definition, because he's abandoning being anti woke. Yeah,
- 13:28Speaker 1: he's just going with the dictionary definition. So that's basically
- 13:32Speaker 1: the equivalent of going to Wikipedia to get your facts.
- 13:35Speaker 1: So m hmm, whatever that's worth.
- 13:38Speaker 2: So, I mean, I think there's the definition that I mean, honestly,
- 13:44Speaker 2: you could use the Nazi definition of national socialism and
- 13:49Speaker 2: it would just be advocacy for the interests of the
- 13:51Speaker 2: German people. And yet how it's applied is actually really critical.
- 13:55Speaker 2: So we can go with the dictionary definition of woke,
- 13:57Speaker 2: but how it's applied tends to be really critical, right, Yeah,
- 14:03Speaker 2: If it's applied in a divisive manner to justify the
- 14:05Speaker 2: destruction of individual liberties, that really becomes more about what
- 14:10Speaker 2: it does than what it is, and what it does
- 14:13Speaker 2: is apparently horrible. So okay, let's uh, yeah, that's what
- 14:17Speaker 2: I'm saying he has stuck on what it is or
- 14:20Speaker 2: what it's defined as. Yeah, but what does it do?
- 14:24Speaker 1: Like, well, that's the thing he's trying to He's trying
- 14:26Speaker 1: to crush the opposition to it, which is essentially trying
- 14:31Speaker 1: to crush opposition to intersectional feminism. But what I would
- 14:35Speaker 1: say woke is, in another way of describing it is
- 14:39Speaker 1: simply critical consciousness, which is like, one of the things
- 14:42Speaker 1: that these people do is they try to, like these progressives,
- 14:44Speaker 1: they try to say, well, what is woke? And if
- 14:46Speaker 1: you can't define it, then they will just call it
- 14:49Speaker 1: a dunk and say they won. So I think it's
- 14:51Speaker 1: a very simple thing to say. It's critical consciousness, which
- 14:55Speaker 1: means it refers to the process of becoming aware of
- 14:58Speaker 1: and critically examining the social economic structures that shape one's thoughts, beliefs,
- 15:02Speaker 1: and actions. It involves recognizing the ways in which ideology,
- 15:05Speaker 1: particularly false consciousness. False consciousness is considered by the people
- 15:10Speaker 1: who engage in critical consciousness as sort of like the
- 15:12Speaker 1: mainstream consciousness. You know, concepts like human rights, property rights, masculinity, femininity,
- 15:20Speaker 1: family children, owning your own business, whatever it is, those
- 15:25Speaker 1: are all false consciousness because they are, even though they
- 15:29Speaker 1: are what we want to, you know, sort of demonstrate.
- 15:33Speaker 1: It doesn't go along with the critical consciousness, which is
- 15:36Speaker 1: essentially designed as a tool of revolution to divide us
- 15:41Speaker 1: and to basically look at make us look at the
- 15:44Speaker 1: world in terms of power dynamics and power structures and
- 15:48Speaker 1: who has it and who doesn't, Which is why feminism
- 15:50Speaker 1: is so effective, because it always places men as the
- 15:53Speaker 1: people with the most agency, the most power, and the
- 15:55Speaker 1: most desire to dominate over women. And they cannot they
- 15:59Speaker 1: cannot let that go. And I guarantee you that dark
- 16:02Speaker 1: Matter twenty five twenty five is one of those people.
- 16:06Speaker 1: So false consciousness refers to the ways in which members
- 16:09Speaker 1: of the proletariat or whatever the oppressed class unwittingly misperceive
- 16:15Speaker 1: their real position in society and systematically misunderstand their genuine
- 16:19Speaker 1: interests within the social relations of production under you know,
- 16:23Speaker 1: whatever the system is, patriarchy, capitalism, white supremacy, et cetera.
- 16:27Speaker 1: This false consciousness is reinforced by the dominant ideology, which
- 16:31Speaker 1: naturalizes and legitimates the existence of social classes and the
- 16:34Speaker 1: exploitation of the working class by the dominant or oppressing class.
- 16:41Speaker 1: So what that is woke in simplistle, in the in,
- 16:45Speaker 1: in its simple, simplistic form, its critical consciousness, and that's it.
- 16:50Speaker 1: So when he says, I challenge you to define it,
- 16:53Speaker 1: it's like, that's it. I'm not even I didn't even
- 16:55Speaker 1: go to the Webster's dictionary. You just like read, you know,
- 16:59Speaker 1: like Theodore Ordorno, you know, Hagel whatever. There's there's plenty
- 17:05Speaker 1: of shit, bell hooks, it's everywhere, you know. So anyway, okay,
- 17:11Speaker 1: let's go. Let's let's uh yeah, let me even make
- 17:14Speaker 1: sure I'm going to the time codes now, so uh yeah,
- 17:20Speaker 1: there's more to this one. So let me just turn
- 17:22Speaker 1: off our things so we don't interrupt, and I'll play
- 17:24Speaker 1: another thirty now.
- 17:26Speaker 4: It originally meant the first definition, but throughout recent political discourse,
- 17:32Speaker 4: the term was co opted and turned into the second
- 17:35Speaker 4: definition in order to disparage.
- 17:39Speaker 1: Well, it didn't know, nobody changed the definition. What happened
- 17:44Speaker 1: was the first definition became so obnoxious that now when
- 17:49Speaker 1: you just say woke, it just makes it. It doesn't
- 17:53Speaker 1: It's not like people said we're gonna co opt this
- 17:55Speaker 1: term and make it mean something different. They just saw
- 17:57Speaker 1: the outcome. It's like feminism. Let's let's say feminists, because
- 18:01Speaker 1: some people get like hung up on like using the
- 18:04Speaker 1: right word. Let's just use feminism as as another term.
- 18:07Speaker 1: He's basically saying, feminism used to mean, you know, the
- 18:11Speaker 1: equality of the sexes, and now it's a disparaging term
- 18:15Speaker 1: because it's been co opted. No, it hasn't been changed.
- 18:19Speaker 1: It's just that now when you say feminism, if it
- 18:21Speaker 1: annoys people, there's reason for it, you know. It's like that,
- 18:26Speaker 1: So like there's there's actually a change in people's reaction
- 18:31Speaker 1: to feminism because now we know what it really means,
- 18:34Speaker 1: and that's why we're annoyed. We didn't change it, we
- 18:36Speaker 1: didn't co opt it. That's like men's rights activists actually
- 18:39Speaker 1: did the same thing in the opposite direction. The feminists
- 18:42Speaker 1: labeled us MRAs because they wanted to use it as
- 18:46Speaker 1: a pejorative and they thought that the concept of someone
- 18:49Speaker 1: who advocated for the rights and legal protections and fairness
- 18:54Speaker 1: of men was so absurd and ridiculous that they were like,
- 18:57Speaker 1: we'll just call them what they are and that'll be hilarious.
- 18:59Speaker 1: And they did, and then we were like okay, and
- 19:02Speaker 1: we just went with it.
- 19:03Speaker 2: Yeah, that there was two responses to it. One response was,
- 19:08Speaker 2: oh my god, I can't believe in this patriarchy that
- 19:12Speaker 2: puts the rights of men. First, you've called me the
- 19:15Speaker 2: very worst thing you can which is somebody who puts
- 19:17Speaker 2: the rights of men in any position at all cares
- 19:20Speaker 2: about them at all, like amazingly. And so there was
- 19:23Speaker 2: a huge portion of people who just fled. They just
- 19:26Speaker 2: were like, oh, no, I can't he they're calling us,
- 19:28Speaker 2: they're calling us concerned about the rights of men. We
- 19:31Speaker 2: got a flee, you know. And then there were just
- 19:33Speaker 2: a hard, stubborn corps who are like, we don't care
- 19:37Speaker 2: what you call us, call us what you want. We're
- 19:40Speaker 2: going to continue to advocate for the concerns of men,
- 19:44Speaker 2: for male victims of domestic violence, false accusations, sexual assault,
- 19:48Speaker 2: you know, for issues in the family court that men face,
- 19:51Speaker 2: and conscription and all of this other stuff. We're going
- 19:53Speaker 2: to advocate for these issues and it doesn't matter what
- 19:56Speaker 2: you call us. That that's essentially the difference, like oh yeah, yea,
- 20:00Speaker 2: that identity. It just reflects people who are absolutely stubborn
- 20:07Speaker 2: about advocating for these issues and aren't going to be
- 20:09Speaker 2: scared away by what feminists call us.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Okay, right, And well, The thing is is that like
- 20:14Speaker 1: there it seems to be a fixation on this particular
- 20:18Speaker 1: term woke right that he's trying to respond to. But
- 20:21Speaker 1: the truth is is that none of these things get like.
- 20:24Speaker 1: There isn't like a secret society of people that basically
- 20:27Speaker 1: take a term and say we're going to repurpose this,
- 20:30Speaker 1: and then they repurpose it and then it, like the
- 20:32Speaker 1: branding gets damaged. What happened is you can still find
- 20:36Speaker 1: people who have made songs about wokeness in using the
- 20:39Speaker 1: first definition, because at the time they saw it as
- 20:42Speaker 1: a self righteous, like you know, morally good thing, and
- 20:47Speaker 1: then the reality of their beliefs came out and people
- 20:50Speaker 1: started calling it what it is, just like men's rights activists,
- 20:54Speaker 1: just like feminists, and then people saw the truth of it,
- 20:57Speaker 1: and the only reason why they backed off of the
- 20:59Speaker 1: woke label is because it wasn't good for their brand.
- 21:03Speaker 1: You know what I've always I've often said that the
- 21:05Speaker 1: culture war that we're in is ultimately a marketing war,
- 21:10Speaker 1: and the marketing tools keep changing because you know, these people,
- 21:13Speaker 1: their beliefs don't change, they don't compromise, they're very aggressive,
- 21:17Speaker 1: they're very hostile. Their entire framework is upside down, and
- 21:22Speaker 1: yet they think that they can win by just rebranding shit.
- 21:25Speaker 1: That's why they go with third you know, new waves
- 21:27Speaker 1: of feminism come out, New terms for patriarchy come out
- 21:30Speaker 1: called curiochy, new terms for you know, their progressive communist
- 21:35Speaker 1: ideals come out. They have words like tanky and they
- 21:39Speaker 1: have social democrat, and they have you know, woke, and
- 21:42Speaker 1: they have progressive. But like their actions and beliefs are
- 21:47Speaker 1: the same. And so what happens is after a while,
- 21:49Speaker 1: we just call it whatever they're calling it, and they're like, well,
- 21:51Speaker 1: that's not good for our brand. It must be your fault.
- 21:54Speaker 1: It's like, no, yeah, you.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Haven't changed, like criticize it, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 21:58Speaker 1: We're just calling out what you're doing and criticizing it.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Like they've done that. They've tried to do the same
- 22:02Speaker 1: thing with men's rights activists. They've done it with in cell,
- 22:05Speaker 1: they've done it with Christian they've done it with men.
- 22:08Speaker 1: I mean, they've done it with conservative like they've they've
- 22:11Speaker 1: taken terms and they've turned them into pejoratives too. But
- 22:15Speaker 1: the difference is how you react to that branding, right
- 22:20Speaker 1: do you do you recoil and say we got to
- 22:22Speaker 1: change it. We got to we need a new word
- 22:25Speaker 1: or do you just say, yeah, I guess that's what
- 22:27Speaker 1: I am. So what I mean? You know?
- 22:30Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 22:30Speaker 1: You know, like in cells, like they're just calling everybody
- 22:33Speaker 1: that they're calling married men with families in cells, they're
- 22:36Speaker 1: just using it, you know, because.
- 22:38Speaker 2: If you think about it, the term has changed so much. Well,
- 22:42Speaker 2: essentially it was just feminist, women's livers feminists, and then
- 22:47Speaker 2: it became PC woke or no sorry PC social justice
- 22:51Speaker 2: and now woke, and they keep changing the term. They
- 22:54Speaker 2: keep changing it, whereas everybody they attack, like men's rights
- 22:59Speaker 2: activists have not changed what we call ourselves in like decades,
- 23:04Speaker 2: you know, we haven't changed maybe we like when I
- 23:07Speaker 2: talk about men's issues advocates, I try to be like,
- 23:11Speaker 2: because some of these things aren't about rights, they're about
- 23:13Speaker 2: issues that men face. And then some people don't want
- 23:15Speaker 2: to be called an activist because they're not or are
- 23:20Speaker 2: doing they're not activizing, so that if you feel like,
- 23:22Speaker 2: so it's men's issues advocates or men's rights advocates, but
- 23:25Speaker 2: the names are all what we do, and yet they
- 23:29Speaker 2: keep hiding behind all of these euphemisms, and when somebody
- 23:32Speaker 2: comes out and starts calling them out for their aggressive,
- 23:35Speaker 2: predatory and bullying behavior and their discrimination against half the
- 23:40Speaker 2: human race. They they run away into a new name.
- 23:43Speaker 2: It's like a corporate shell game. You know how corporations
- 23:45Speaker 2: have multiple names so you don't know who to sue.
- 23:48Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 23:49Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's very deceitful behavior.
- 23:52Speaker 1: Oh exactly, it's like shell It's like shell identities, you know,
- 23:56Speaker 1: when you corner them on somebody like no, no, I'm
- 23:58Speaker 1: not a tanky, I'm not I'm not a stalinist, I'm
- 24:01Speaker 1: a maoist or whatever. It's like you're just you're just
- 24:04Speaker 1: moving the pieces around. But I can see it in
- 24:07Speaker 1: your behavior and what you do. Right, it's your behavior.
- 24:11Speaker 2: That's why I'm saying. The name doesn't like, the definition
- 24:13Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It's what they do. Mm hmm okay, and
- 24:17Speaker 2: they understand it, like, uh okay. So the definition of
- 24:20Speaker 2: cop is someone who a policeman is someone who upholds
- 24:23Speaker 2: the piece? Is that is that what police always do? Like? Right, Yeah,
- 24:31Speaker 2: there's a difference there. It's not always the definition. It's
- 24:34Speaker 2: what these individuals who are attracted to these concepts do.
- 24:40Speaker 2: And like I said, it is bullying. It is often deceitful.
- 24:45Speaker 2: It is exclusionary. It's extremely archaic. It's like creating this
- 24:53Speaker 2: moral hierarchy and excluding people based on it, excluding people
- 24:56Speaker 2: from the right to speak. So we're somehow going back
- 25:01Speaker 2: and constructing a moral hierarchy place based on people's ancestry.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Is an advancement. No, that's like cast systems in aristo
- 25:11Speaker 2: aristocracy and religions of old. Like, that's not a movement
- 25:16Speaker 2: towards anything new. It is a movement towards visiting the
- 25:19Speaker 2: sins of the father and the son, which is something
- 25:22Speaker 2: that we I think we dealt with like two cent
- 25:24Speaker 2: two millennium ago. We're gonna reverse to BC behavior Like
- 25:29Speaker 2: what the hell? Okay, anyway, so let's keep going.
- 25:33Speaker 1: All right, let's fly. I just jumped ahead a bit,
- 25:35Speaker 1: so let's jump to this next time.
- 25:37Speaker 4: Your groups.
- 25:38Speaker 5: It's a basis for madness. When people say the gay community,
- 25:43Speaker 5: who are you talking about? It's like women think this,
- 25:48Speaker 5: oh really, fifty percent of the species all agree on something,
- 25:53Speaker 5: Blacks say this.
- 25:56Speaker 4: Really, and some defined it as the perfect opposite. Being
- 26:01Speaker 4: restricted from assigning viewpoints to entire groups.
- 26:06Speaker 6: People always ask what is the definition of woke? Well,
- 26:09Speaker 6: the definition of woke as I mentioned in the book,
- 26:12Speaker 6: is the making sacred of historically marginalized race, gender, and
- 26:17Speaker 6: sexual identity groups.
- 26:19Speaker 4: That's it.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Now that last, well, how is that? Okay?
- 26:24Speaker 1: Are saying that these things are contradictory.
- 26:26Speaker 2: Somehow things are not contrad Okay, let's go back again
- 26:29Speaker 2: and listen to them again.
- 26:31Speaker 1: All right, I'm going to go back.
- 26:32Speaker 2: To why right to my face?
- 26:35Speaker 1: Yeah, Douglas Murray talking to Jordan Peterson here, Yeah, play,
- 26:40Speaker 1: I think if I play it from here, it's okay,
- 26:42Speaker 1: Kevin Dy, who are you talking about?
- 26:44Speaker 5: It's like women think this, Oh, reallymen.
- 26:50Speaker 2: Experience this Black people experience, but that translates into them
- 26:57Speaker 2: thinking and then well it's not really women. They it's
- 27:01Speaker 2: white men. Let's be honest. Who they're saying. They know
- 27:05Speaker 2: what they think. It's black and women who experience certain
- 27:09Speaker 2: things as a result of white men's intentions and motivations,
- 27:12Speaker 2: which intersectionality keeps you gives you a complete clear window
- 27:16Speaker 2: into and ability to judge like they essentially what they're
- 27:20Speaker 2: saying is black people and white or sorry, black people, Well,
- 27:24Speaker 2: black women and white women have this experience and they
- 27:28Speaker 2: have this experience because of these motivations by white men.
- 27:34Speaker 2: These motivations and thinking and logic by white men. So
- 27:38Speaker 2: the intersectional stack somehow makes them telepathic and able to
- 27:44Speaker 2: read white men's minds, see what I'm saying, Yeah, and
- 27:49Speaker 2: impune their motives. Okay, but anyway, that's a little bit
- 27:52Speaker 2: of an aside.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Well, but I think he's saying, essentially, these people speak
- 27:57Speaker 1: for large groups of people. So when he says, as
- 28:00Speaker 1: women think this, he's saying that these people speak for
- 28:02Speaker 1: women as a group like half of the population or
- 28:06Speaker 1: whatever the group happens to be in the moment. But anyway,
- 28:08Speaker 1: let's I'm just trying to clarify things.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, far enough. Yeah, so he's
- 28:12Speaker 2: basically yeah.
- 28:14Speaker 7: Yeah, uh, blacks say this really, and some defined it
- 28:23Speaker 7: as the perfect opposite, being restricted from assigning viewpoints to
- 28:28Speaker 7: entire groups.
- 28:29Speaker 6: People always ask, what is the definition of woke? Well,
- 28:32Speaker 6: the definition of woke, as I mentioned in the book,
- 28:35Speaker 6: is the making sacred of historically marginalized race, gender, and
- 28:41Speaker 6: sexual identity groups.
- 28:42Speaker 2: That's okay, okay, all right, how did he come to that.
- 28:46Speaker 1: Conclusion that these are opposites?
- 28:50Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, because one is saying, well, I mean, honestly,
- 28:55Speaker 2: one is saying that you can't say you can't speak
- 28:58Speaker 2: for an entire group, and that he's not saying that,
- 29:02Speaker 2: saying that you can't speak for an entire group is woke. Right,
- 29:06Speaker 2: he's saying that's not woke. He's saying not speaking saying Okay,
- 29:09Speaker 2: well I can't speak for an entire group is the
- 29:12Speaker 2: opposite of woke. And now he's saying that this guy
- 29:14Speaker 2: who is defining woke is defining it in the opposite
- 29:18Speaker 2: of this guy who's defining the opposite of woke.
- 29:20Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean, well, okay, he popped.
- 29:25Speaker 2: Open this man's skull with they're just steaming oatmeal.
- 29:29Speaker 1: In Does anybody know who this guy is on the screen,
- 29:31Speaker 1: because I know who he is, but I can't remember
- 29:33Speaker 1: his name. He's written books about this stuff. So Douglas
- 29:38Speaker 1: Murray in the previous kit clip was basically talking about
- 29:42Speaker 1: how astounding it is that you have people who are
- 29:46Speaker 1: part of the progressive, intersectional feminist left that are basically
- 29:50Speaker 1: saying I I speak for group X, Right, they're basically,
- 29:56Speaker 1: you know, treating them as a monoliths a monolith and yeah,
- 30:00Speaker 1: speaking for them or at least And that's part of
- 30:03Speaker 1: the thing that I read before, where you know, if
- 30:05Speaker 1: you are a part of that monolith that they're speaking for,
- 30:08Speaker 1: but you don't have the right ideas, it's because you
- 30:10Speaker 1: have false consciousness. That's what I was saying when I
- 30:13Speaker 1: read about critical consciousness is about making people become conscious
- 30:18Speaker 1: or awake or woke about the way of the world. Right,
- 30:24Speaker 1: It's like, it's like this this it's like this secret
- 30:28Speaker 1: that only these people have, and they're trying to wake
- 30:30Speaker 1: you up to it. That's what woke means, Okay, And
- 30:34Speaker 1: so if you don't have the appropriate consciousness, then you're
- 30:38Speaker 1: not woke, but you are deserving to be made awake,
- 30:43Speaker 1: made aware of this stuff. So when Douglas Murray is
- 30:47Speaker 1: talking about it's people who are saying this is what
- 30:49Speaker 1: women are supposed to feel. I mean, they'll say that
- 30:52Speaker 1: they do because it's trying to gaslight women that might
- 30:55Speaker 1: be watching. You know, that's what the purpose of all
- 30:58Speaker 1: that is, right, Like in the Barb movie, when America
- 31:02Speaker 1: Ferrera does that, you know rant that everyone loves so
- 31:05Speaker 1: much well women do about how hard it is to
- 31:08Speaker 1: be a woman. It's a gaslighting tactic to make other
- 31:11Speaker 1: women who may not have thought about that too much
- 31:14Speaker 1: think about it and say, oh, yeah, you know what,
- 31:15Speaker 1: I do feel insufficient in every possible way. She must
- 31:19Speaker 1: be onto something. It's intended to try to raise or
- 31:24Speaker 1: you know, raise I put in quotes because it's just gaslighting,
- 31:27Speaker 1: but a woman's consciousness or awareness of their own victimhood.
- 31:30Speaker 1: And if they don't absorb that internalize that, then it fails. Right,
- 31:35Speaker 1: But that's what the attempt is. Now. I don't think
- 31:38Speaker 1: that Douglas Murray's conception and this guy is this who
- 31:44Speaker 1: is this guy? I'm sorry I don't remember, but I
- 31:47Speaker 1: don't believe that these are our opposites. I think this
- 31:50Speaker 1: guy is basically sort of reinforcing that because he's saying
- 31:54Speaker 1: it's making the sacred, making sacred marginalized groups. So when
- 32:00Speaker 1: so in order to do that, though, you do, you
- 32:02Speaker 1: have to make them into a monolith. So you say,
- 32:05Speaker 1: all black people need my help. I'm going to make
- 32:07Speaker 1: them sacred. I'm going to advocate for them and for them.
- 32:10Speaker 1: But in order for me to do that, I have
- 32:11Speaker 1: to basically tell you what they believe or what their
- 32:14Speaker 1: experience is.
- 32:16Speaker 2: Yes, but my point is that he's taking a man
- 32:20Speaker 2: who is saying this is the opposite of woke, which
- 32:24Speaker 2: it was essentially, well, he's describing the opposite of woke,
- 32:29Speaker 2: or he is describing woke as being as speaking for everybody.
- 32:34Speaker 2: So the opposite of woke is saying, well, you know,
- 32:36Speaker 2: you can't speak for everyone in a gigantic group, right, Yeah,
- 32:41Speaker 2: And he's comparing that with this guy who's saying making
- 32:45Speaker 2: sacred and not making like you were saying, not making
- 32:48Speaker 2: sacred every opinion of that group, but specifically making sacred
- 32:54Speaker 2: how that group and the people within that group that
- 32:57Speaker 2: support the intersectional system, right, you know, the intersectional hedgemeny
- 33:02Speaker 2: and so yeah, you're right, they're completely compatible, right, And
- 33:07Speaker 2: the fact is that he's saying that these are the opposite.
- 33:10Speaker 2: I don't understand the logic behind it.
- 33:12Speaker 1: I'm trying to. Yeah, he's going to try and get
- 33:15Speaker 1: into it and the next okay, okay, so yeah, yeah,
- 33:18Speaker 1: go ahead for you before you continue.
- 33:21Speaker 2: Now, one of the issues with all of this is
- 33:26Speaker 2: you have this logical system, or this this hegemonic system, intersectionality.
- 33:33Speaker 2: And you're right, it does not advocate for every black
- 33:38Speaker 2: black person, only those black people who buy into the
- 33:42Speaker 2: intersectional framework, right. Any any black person who doesn't is
- 33:46Speaker 2: marginalized as having false consciousness. So it really has nothing
- 33:50Speaker 2: to do with advocating black people or white or women
- 33:53Speaker 2: unless you assume that all black people and all women
- 33:58Speaker 2: have the same opinions and have the same experts, and
- 34:01Speaker 2: then any woman who says no, I don't use silence.
- 34:05Speaker 2: But what's interesting to me is it's using all of
- 34:07Speaker 2: these groups and it is removing any individual voice of
- 34:13Speaker 2: any individual within these groups that is outside the framework
- 34:18Speaker 2: of the intersectional hegemeny. And at the end of the day,
- 34:22Speaker 2: the people who use the intersectional hegemeny are governments, media,
- 34:27Speaker 2: and corporations to justify their overreach over the individual, if
- 34:32Speaker 2: you notice.
- 34:33Speaker 1: The schools and schools to justify.
- 34:36Speaker 2: To justify their control and their destruction of individual liberties.
- 34:40Speaker 2: So it's really interesting because the thing is that somehow,
- 34:43Speaker 2: during the time of our Lady the koof somehow those
- 34:48Speaker 2: groups who are minorities who were the most the least
- 34:52Speaker 2: receptive to some of the suggested medical interventions, shall we
- 34:59Speaker 2: say they were the least receptive, somehow they became white
- 35:03Speaker 2: supremacists using the powers of intersectionality. So you take something,
- 35:09Speaker 2: you take an attitude that is held majority black, and
- 35:13Speaker 2: if it is against government academia, pharm a big pharma,
- 35:21Speaker 2: the Department of Education. If it's against those big bodies
- 35:25Speaker 2: that control those black people suddenly become white supremacists, even
- 35:29Speaker 2: though white people are more likely to hold the opinion
- 35:32Speaker 2: than black people. Do you see what I'm saying? So,
- 35:34Speaker 2: this is what I've noticed. If there is a situation
- 35:37Speaker 2: where black people hold an opinion and are more likely
- 35:41Speaker 2: to hold it and it is counter to any large
- 35:45Speaker 2: interests by these large institutions, and white people are more
- 35:49Speaker 2: likely to be Okay, yeah, that's fine. What do you
- 35:51Speaker 2: do you submit? They will say that the black people
- 35:55Speaker 2: are white supremacists. You see, they are literally using these
- 35:59Speaker 2: terms terms to silence all opposition, regardless of how ridiculous
- 36:04Speaker 2: it is, right yeah, okay, you know, And let me
- 36:10Speaker 2: use a really ridiculous example. Let's say we reinstitute slavery
- 36:14Speaker 2: and all black people are against it, but the corporations
- 36:17Speaker 2: are for it because white people would be for it.
- 36:21Speaker 2: Being against slavery would become white supremacy or sorry because
- 36:25Speaker 2: but because it benefits the corporations. They'll say being against
- 36:29Speaker 2: slavery is white supremacy. This is how they operate, right,
- 36:34Speaker 2: They are determining what is acceptable speech and what are
- 36:38Speaker 2: acceptable positions. It has absolutely nothing to do with the
- 36:42Speaker 2: opinions of most black people. They will tell you your opinions
- 36:46Speaker 2: and if you don't.
- 36:46Speaker 1: Have those should be right, yes, And if.
- 36:51Speaker 2: You don't have those opinions, you're a male supremacist. And
- 36:55Speaker 2: it's not just feminism, it's feminism is a mouthpiece for
- 36:58Speaker 2: forced consumption, force corporate consumption. It is a mouth piece
- 37:02Speaker 2: for corporate and government collusion.
- 37:05Speaker 1: Like they're just basically and redistribution of well and like.
- 37:09Speaker 2: It's like wake up, guys, wake up.
- 37:17Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Uh okay, so let's play some more.
- 37:21Speaker 1: He's gonna get into his reasoning. I'm gonna turn off
- 37:24Speaker 1: our response things so that people can don't because the
- 37:29Speaker 1: thing is, if it's see if it switches scenes when
- 37:31Speaker 1: we talk, then the audio from the video it cuts out. Yeah,
- 37:36Speaker 1: so anyway, let's go.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Now.
- 37:38Speaker 4: That last clip is very interesting to me because he
- 37:42Speaker 4: admits something I don't think he intended to admit, and
- 37:46Speaker 4: the word sacred is what led him into his own trap.
- 37:51Speaker 4: He talks about historically marginalized groups such as gender, race,
- 37:56Speaker 4: and sexual orientation as being sacred, in other words, unassailable, unable,
- 38:03Speaker 4: to blaspheme against. But here's my question, what legitimate criticism
- 38:11Speaker 4: or negative statement can be levied at an entire race,
- 38:17Speaker 4: or an entire gender, or an entire sexual orientation. Now,
- 38:23Speaker 4: if someone said, quote, the problem with black people is ABC,
- 38:29Speaker 4: or the problem with women is XYZ, wouldn't we immediately
- 38:36Speaker 4: recognize that as racists or sexist because you're shoehorning everyone
- 38:42Speaker 4: of those groups into a box of problems based on
- 38:48Speaker 4: mutable characteristics.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Patriarchy men are to blame. Like does he is he
- 38:58Speaker 2: absolutely against all of these these statements? No? No, so yes,
- 39:04Speaker 2: he will continue to support those statements that support his
- 39:08Speaker 2: identity as a man, as the alphone omega of everybody,
- 39:12Speaker 2: everybody's existence. But of course he'll question those statements if
- 39:16Speaker 2: they But that's not what this man is saying either.
- 39:20Speaker 2: He's not saying that black people need to take responsibility
- 39:24Speaker 2: for the guest stalt black that comes out of all
- 39:28Speaker 2: of the black people, like that's ridiculous. He's saying, you
- 39:31Speaker 2: can't use this intersectional system to excuse the individual responsibility
- 39:37Speaker 2: of individual Black people on their individual actions. Likewise, for women,
- 39:42Speaker 2: you cannot use this intersectionality to excuse the individual actions
- 39:48Speaker 2: of individual women, and that's that's what he's calling out.
- 39:52Speaker 2: Nobody is saying that black people need to take to
- 39:56Speaker 2: pay reparations for white people like or that women need
- 40:00Speaker 2: to take women need to pay reparations for matriarchy. Nobody's
- 40:06Speaker 2: saying is saying those things, but presumably saying people are
- 40:09Speaker 2: saying the reverse, and that's what's being called out. All right,
- 40:14Speaker 2: Like this is ridiculous, Like yeah, he's just straw manning.
- 40:21Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I will say this too, because there is
- 40:24Speaker 1: this thing he's like, the problem with women or the
- 40:27Speaker 1: problem with black people. But what if there is a problem,
- 40:30Speaker 1: but I would phrase it differently, Like what if I said,
- 40:34Speaker 1: you know, what would fix the problems or most of
- 40:36Speaker 1: the problems in the black population of the United States,
- 40:40Speaker 1: Which is not the same as saying the problem with
- 40:43Speaker 1: black people. You see, he's already like straw manning the
- 40:47Speaker 1: case because he's making it sound more inflammatory than it
- 40:50Speaker 1: needs to be. Because if I said, well, we need
- 40:52Speaker 1: to do something about the broken family and the fatherlessness
- 40:56Speaker 1: and the abortions and like, you know, all of these
- 40:59Speaker 1: other issues that are probably you know, the predecessors or
- 41:04Speaker 1: the progenitors for you know, real on the ground problems
- 41:08Speaker 1: that blacks in the in the in this country deal
- 41:11Speaker 1: with all the time, like gang violence and drug abuse
- 41:14Speaker 1: and so on. But if I were to say, well,
- 41:17Speaker 1: I want to fix this problem, but part of it
- 41:19Speaker 1: it's going to come down to black people taking some
- 41:21Speaker 1: responsibility or at least we've got to talk about that,
- 41:23Speaker 1: he would say, well, isn't that racist? Though, So it's like, well,
- 41:26Speaker 1: do we do we? Because that's the same thing with women.
- 41:28Speaker 1: If I said, well, I don't want to put it,
- 41:31Speaker 1: I wouldn't frame it as the problem with women, but
- 41:34Speaker 1: I might say, you know, here's a problem that a
- 41:37Speaker 1: lot of modern women have in the dating space or
- 41:41Speaker 1: with you know, I don't know whatever it is with women. Yeah,
- 41:45Speaker 1: but like that, And it's like, what if we want
- 41:48Speaker 1: to fix something that is a problem, why can't we
- 41:52Speaker 1: point out the problem like what that? Because because it's
- 41:55Speaker 1: racist a sexist, and like why doesn't like, I know,
- 41:58Speaker 1: this guy like he's he's supposed to be really smart
- 42:01Speaker 1: because he's like fitting in front of his microphone calmly,
- 42:06Speaker 1: you know, and like talking like very with big words
- 42:09Speaker 1: and no, and I look, it just irritates me because
- 42:13Speaker 1: this is just like big brain framing. But If he
- 42:16Speaker 1: hasn't even questioned whether or not the words sexist or
- 42:20Speaker 1: racist are useful when it comes to actually addressing shit,
- 42:24Speaker 1: because that's part of this whole gaslighting thing. He's never
- 42:26Speaker 1: even questioned those things, then maybe you're just not at
- 42:31Speaker 1: the level that you think you are. I mean, maybe
- 42:33Speaker 1: your audience probably loves you. Probably they do, because they're
- 42:36Speaker 1: all there. They're just like, oh, I just want to
- 42:38Speaker 1: feel better than everybody else. This is just a different
- 42:40Speaker 1: kind of supremacy. It's just intellectual, top down supremacy. I'm
- 42:44Speaker 1: smarter than you guys. You are all dumb backwards hicks
- 42:47Speaker 1: that you know, I don't know, thump your bibles and
- 42:51Speaker 1: whatever whatever he thinks, right, but I'm the really smart
- 42:55Speaker 1: guy that doesn't hate women or black people, and I'm
- 42:57Speaker 1: going to tell you how you're a bad person. It's
- 43:00Speaker 1: just like, it's so dull.
- 43:02Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it is a bit dull. But it's also confusing,
- 43:06Speaker 2: because maybe confusing is the wrong word because he's doing
- 43:11Speaker 2: exactly what he's calling other people out. When you talk
- 43:13Speaker 2: about sexism, you are talking about men's culpability, let's be honest.
- 43:20Speaker 2: And when you talking about racism, you're specifically talking about
- 43:22Speaker 2: white men's culpability. Let's be honest. So you are borg.
- 43:26Speaker 2: If it's okay to borgafy, it's okay to collectivize as
- 43:30Speaker 2: long as it's directed at white CIS head men. You know,
- 43:33Speaker 2: I would be fine if everybody just walked away from
- 43:37Speaker 2: the collective thinking and uh simply took people on an
- 43:43Speaker 2: individual basis. Now, that's a that's a lot of That
- 43:48Speaker 2: is a very high bar for when it comes to
- 43:50Speaker 2: the sexes. But but I mean, I would be fine
- 43:52Speaker 2: with that. I don't advocate the idea that all women
- 43:56Speaker 2: are in a conspiracy to oppress men. I don't that
- 44:00Speaker 2: that's realistic. But yet there are people out there who
- 44:04Speaker 2: genuinely believe that men are in some kind of conspiracy
- 44:07Speaker 2: to oppress women. They genuinely believe that about half the
- 44:10Speaker 2: human race. Are you gonna call these people out? Are
- 44:13Speaker 2: you going to continue to call out the people calling
- 44:15Speaker 2: them out? Yeah, and then you're gonna say, oh, well,
- 44:18Speaker 2: I'm calling them out based on the fact that they're
- 44:22Speaker 2: going to say these universalizing statements about large portions of
- 44:27Speaker 2: the human race. How dare you call people out feminists
- 44:31Speaker 2: out for their universalizing statements about men. That's making a
- 44:34Speaker 2: universalizing statement about feminists HERP. But DRP.
- 44:39Speaker 1: Like you can't do that, you can't. Well, watch is
- 44:45Speaker 1: a monolith. It's one of the good monoliths.
- 44:48Speaker 2: Come and stop me.
- 44:49Speaker 1: It's like it's like maybe Washington Monuments monolith whitelith. Okay,
- 44:56Speaker 1: so let's play some more of this. Literally I jumped ahead,
- 45:02Speaker 1: uh too, because he goes into this big like anecdote
- 45:06Speaker 1: about his life and I just don't care.
- 45:08Speaker 2: What he cares.
- 45:08Speaker 1: But yeah, he's gonna he's gonna point out like a hypocrisy.
- 45:14Speaker 1: So let let's because that's what That's another thing these
- 45:16Speaker 1: people do is they love trying to like make you
- 45:18Speaker 1: look at a hypocrite and then they just slam the
- 45:21Speaker 1: mic down. Yeah done, you know, but let's let's continue.
- 45:25Speaker 4: About laughing at anger. It was a movement about getting angry.
- 45:29Speaker 4: Suddenly the rule that inspired you, mad Bra no longer applied.
- 45:35Speaker 4: The rules changed when the offense changed. Now the winner
- 45:40Speaker 4: was whoever could get the most angry. But that was
- 45:43Speaker 4: still a.
- 45:44Speaker 2: I'm actually find uncomfortable to listen to him. Why he
- 45:50Speaker 2: just on some instinctive level, I'm like, this is a
- 45:52Speaker 2: guy to get the fuck away from. I don't know why, Like,
- 45:57Speaker 2: it's just it's like, I'm like, I don't want to
- 46:00Speaker 2: leave now. I don't want to be in the same
- 46:02Speaker 2: room as this dude. There's just such a level of
- 46:05Speaker 2: subliminal hatred and anger and the things that he's saying.
- 46:10Speaker 2: I don't know, I didn't.
- 46:11Speaker 1: Jump ahead enough. I'm sorry, go ahead.
- 46:14Speaker 2: I'm just uh, I'm sorry. But that's just my that's
- 46:17Speaker 2: just a gut response.
- 46:19Speaker 1: You just have. Yeah, you're just having a gut response.
- 46:21Speaker 1: It's cool, all right, let me let let me deal
- 46:23Speaker 1: with my guy.
- 46:25Speaker 4: This is the face of a billion thumbnails still used
- 46:29Speaker 4: on loads and memes to this day. Yep, have you
- 46:33Speaker 4: ever seen the source material? It's quite short.
- 46:37Speaker 8: It does not rapists coming into just because the refugees
- 46:40Speaker 8: isn't a rapist.
- 46:52Speaker 1: You're rich in every free that's a that's.
- 46:58Speaker 2: As that number keeps creeping higher. And it's not one three.
- 47:14Speaker 2: It's one in three are stocked subject to domestic violence
- 47:18Speaker 2: and also sexual abuse. It's not rape. One and three
- 47:22Speaker 2: are raped, So that's incorrect.
- 47:24Speaker 1: But the one in three statistic is bullshit anyways, because
- 47:27Speaker 1: it's based on the Merry Cost study, based on.
- 47:31Speaker 2: The CDC, and it includes a whole raft of things,
- 47:33Speaker 2: and if you actually look at mail, uh, the situation
- 47:36Speaker 2: for men, it's very similar. Despite the fact that feminists
- 47:41Speaker 2: are trying to make it invisibilize or reduced, make invisible
- 47:46Speaker 2: male victims, they're still finding like one in four in
- 47:49Speaker 2: terms of the same statistics. Like, so it's yeah, I mean,
- 47:54Speaker 2: this context doesn't make her any better. She's somebody who's
- 47:58Speaker 2: minimizing the situation for ah.
- 48:00Speaker 1: But here's what I think it's gonna reveal. It's gonna
- 48:04Speaker 1: probably reveal that dark matter twenty five. Twenty five believes
- 48:08Speaker 1: the one in five statistics believes in the rape culture
- 48:11Speaker 1: narrative that feminists perpetuate. So he's going to use this
- 48:15Speaker 1: to say, ha, this woman was actually talking about something real,
- 48:19Speaker 1: and you're using her as a meme, aren't you the
- 48:21Speaker 1: stupid one? But the thing is that she's obviously being
- 48:27Speaker 1: used because she's been made to be angry and resentful
- 48:31Speaker 1: over data that has been, let's say, manipulated to make
- 48:35Speaker 1: her feel like unsafe. I mean, if if anything, men
- 48:39Speaker 1: are definitely in more danger, but the existence of risk
- 48:45Speaker 1: is not the same as your reaction to the world.
- 48:48Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting he talks about how you're not supposed
- 48:51Speaker 2: to borgify, like you can't talk for an entire group
- 48:55Speaker 2: of people or condemn an entire group of people. He said,
- 48:58Speaker 2: he's saying that, Well, what he's saying is that you
- 49:00Speaker 2: make sacred black people. And he's saying his interpretation of
- 49:05Speaker 2: that guy saying that will make sacred black people and
- 49:08Speaker 2: white people, let's just use women, make sacred women, is
- 49:11Speaker 2: that it prevents people from making universalizing criticisms of women, right,
- 49:18Speaker 2: And he's saying, well, we would want to do that
- 49:20Speaker 2: a sexist right right here, When this woman says one
- 49:25Speaker 2: in three women are raped, which is not true, she
- 49:29Speaker 2: is making a creating a negative space. That's making a
- 49:33Speaker 2: universalizing negative statement about men. So that's okay, Right, This
- 49:39Speaker 2: isn't just oh, one in three women are raped by
- 49:42Speaker 2: persons unknown, No, this is one in three women are
- 49:45Speaker 2: raped by men. All men to blame or all men responsible.
- 49:49Speaker 2: That's the next step in this.
- 49:51Speaker 1: Well, remember the context of this is they were talking
- 49:54Speaker 1: about I think this was about immigration or some you know,
- 49:58Speaker 1: foreign foreigners that were you know, endangering I guess, or
- 50:04Speaker 1: at least there was a there was danger of foreigners
- 50:06Speaker 1: being violent or you know, sexually assaulty or whatever. And
- 50:10Speaker 1: this woman's counter to that because she's defending the brown guys, right,
- 50:14Speaker 1: she's saying, well, the men at home are just as bad,
- 50:18Speaker 1: so like there's no difference. It sort of like cancels
- 50:21Speaker 1: it out right. So this is like another way that
- 50:24Speaker 1: that feminists use this kind of these narratives to essentially
- 50:29Speaker 1: like push their own, you know, whatever their belief systems are,
- 50:32Speaker 1: is to say, well, look, America, Western men are worse.
- 50:35Speaker 1: Remember we've we made a video about that, where you know,
- 50:39Speaker 1: you have these The reason why the leftist narrative of
- 50:44Speaker 1: threatnarve around men is more effective than the sort of
- 50:48Speaker 1: conservative one is that conservative position is that the men
- 50:52Speaker 1: in those foreign countries over there are dangerous to women,
- 50:56Speaker 1: but the feminist women are saying that the men at
- 50:59Speaker 1: home are dangerous to which is closer to home, which
- 51:01Speaker 1: makes it more effective. So and they're both wrong, they're
- 51:05Speaker 1: like it's all lies, But the point is is that
- 51:08Speaker 1: their lie is a more effective lie, and she is
- 51:11Speaker 1: evidence of that. She's actually demonstrating how effective that propaganda
- 51:15Speaker 1: is on you know, on these women.
- 51:18Speaker 2: We don't have to care about the increased sexual violence
- 51:24Speaker 2: of a group of people because this other group of
- 51:27Speaker 2: people engages in sexual violence. It's bizarre logic, to be honest,
- 51:33Speaker 2: and also it's not based on its premises are false.
- 51:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if you're made to fear, if you're
- 51:39Speaker 1: made to fear men, which men do you fear more?
- 51:42Speaker 1: The ones that are in another country that you'll probably
- 51:44Speaker 1: never visit are the ones that are like living in
- 51:46Speaker 1: your in your town.
- 51:48Speaker 2: But unless they're immigrants, then you have to fear them.
- 51:50Speaker 2: You can't fear them.
- 51:51Speaker 1: No, then you can't fear them anymore? Right?
- 51:53Speaker 2: Yeah, which are Okay, let's.
- 51:57Speaker 1: Let's key, Yeah, let's play the rest of this.
- 52:08Speaker 4: This woman did not get triggered or belligerent or even
- 52:13Speaker 4: a fraction as excited or angry as any one of
- 52:16Speaker 4: us has ever been before.
- 52:19Speaker 2: Okay, is that actually the Is that actually the the
- 52:25Speaker 2: entirety of the clip?
- 52:26Speaker 1: I mean, besides it's short, but I mean, like, so
- 52:29Speaker 1: what if she's not screaming.
- 52:32Speaker 2: I didn't actually see the specific frame frame. Yeah, it's
- 52:37Speaker 2: interesting he chooses this one instead of all of the
- 52:40Speaker 2: other ones where they are genuinely Yeah, exactly.
- 52:44Speaker 1: I think Actually, I think Big Red is on more
- 52:47Speaker 1: memes than that woman is. But he just about the
- 52:50Speaker 1: chicks screaming at the sun when when Trump was being inaugurated,
- 52:54Speaker 1: What about her? That's a that's a big one.
- 52:58Speaker 2: You know, he chooses the one that might be one
- 53:03Speaker 2: one still where she looks like she's legitimately spitting venom.
- 53:08Speaker 2: And the other thing is maybe she just calmed down
- 53:10Speaker 2: because these guys are like, hey, okay, like can we
- 53:12Speaker 2: take it down a notch. That doesn't mean she's not
- 53:14Speaker 2: responsible for that moment of looking like a demon. You know,
- 53:23Speaker 2: if you don't want to have me become an Internet meme,
- 53:26Speaker 2: don't go out in public and look like a demon.
- 53:30Speaker 2: Even if subsequently people calm you down, you still have
- 53:33Speaker 2: that one moment of looking like a freaking demon.
- 53:37Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, Like, what does he want us to do?
- 53:39Speaker 1: Purge the Internet of the images of that woman because
- 53:43Speaker 1: she wasn't as triggered as it looked. I mean that
- 53:45Speaker 1: doesn't matter, like the press, the you know what, when
- 53:48Speaker 1: you overanalyze memes like that, right, I mean, like, what
- 53:52Speaker 1: are you doing?
- 53:52Speaker 9: Man?
- 53:53Speaker 1: Like, what are you doing? I can see I.
- 53:55Speaker 2: Could see dark matter constructing like a fifty fifty thousand
- 53:59Speaker 2: words meme explaining to us all why this meme is
- 54:03Speaker 2: inappropriate and he could make it in the straight of
- 54:06Speaker 2: the woman looking like she's about to spit venom.
- 54:11Speaker 1: Okay, let's go, let's keep going.
- 54:13Speaker 4: If you look at the common section, you'll see everyone
- 54:17Speaker 4: openly realizes it and admits it and feels bad for
- 54:22Speaker 4: how she was immortalized. She was the only one in
- 54:26Speaker 4: the argument actually offering statistics rather than emotions.
- 54:31Speaker 2: I don't even know what was arguing. What how the
- 54:34Speaker 2: hell do you like? I couldn't even tell which position
- 54:37Speaker 2: these people held. And incidentally, she may be offering what
- 54:41Speaker 2: you think is statistics, but they were wrong. One and
- 54:45Speaker 2: three women are raped? No?
- 54:49Speaker 1: No, did she die? Image put on it? Did she
- 54:54Speaker 1: die from that? No? Why are we talking about it?
- 54:58Speaker 1: What about? What about Kyle written house when he was
- 55:01Speaker 1: in a courtroom crying and then and and lefties were
- 55:04Speaker 1: putting up pictures? Did he die? Yeah? It is a woman.
- 55:09Speaker 1: It is a woman. I'm sorry. It's not the.
- 55:11Speaker 2: Same responsible for women. Oh, men are supposed to do,
- 55:17Speaker 2: you know, protect women? They if you see a woman
- 55:20Speaker 2: doing something stupid, they need to divert their gaze or
- 55:23Speaker 2: they need to save her without touching her or telling
- 55:26Speaker 2: her what to do. You know, it's it's men. Need
- 55:28Speaker 2: to be responsible for women. I'm gonna hold men to
- 55:31Speaker 2: that standard, and I'm not gonna hold women to any
- 55:34Speaker 2: kind of standard. God, for you know, who cares of
- 55:37Speaker 2: all the women sharing the kyle rittenhouse? Me mocking him
- 55:40Speaker 2: for crying and then turning around and saying, why don't
- 55:43Speaker 2: men cry? Who cares about all of them? Who cares
- 55:47Speaker 2: about all of the men who become memes. That's not
- 55:50Speaker 2: what's important, Brian. What's important is that women are protected
- 55:55Speaker 2: and men protect those women and that. But that can't
- 55:58Speaker 2: we can't.
- 55:59Speaker 1: Recognize how many marriages do I have to do?
- 56:03Speaker 2: You have to do a billion? You can't recognize that
- 56:05Speaker 2: as having an effect on the greater world, Like we
- 56:08Speaker 2: have to hold men to higher standards of women's protection,
- 56:12Speaker 2: but we can't recognize that we're doing so, And we
- 56:15Speaker 2: can't recognize that men are actually actually responding to being
- 56:20Speaker 2: held to those standards, because that might be an insult
- 56:23Speaker 2: towards women. Yep, oh, good lord, Like I said from
- 56:29Speaker 2: his skull, I'm guessing some steaming oatmeal.
- 56:33Speaker 1: But he's dark Matter twenty five twenty five, the big
- 56:36Speaker 1: brain atheist guy that makes those really smart cartoons where
- 56:39Speaker 1: he points out hypocrises.
- 56:40Speaker 2: Well you would. I wish you would meditate a bit, because,
- 56:44Speaker 2: by God, just gives off such an aura of menacing anger,
- 56:50Speaker 2: no offense. I generally don't get too concerned about angry men,
- 56:56Speaker 2: except when you can feel it just below the skin,
- 57:00Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
- 57:02Speaker 1: Well, the point is to be a monster, but having
- 57:05Speaker 1: under control.
- 57:07Speaker 5: It's like it's like.
- 57:12Speaker 4: In what she made a funny face. Now her entire
- 57:16Speaker 4: existence is encapsulated by that.
- 57:19Speaker 2: Okay, welcome to the Internet.
- 57:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, Oh my god, won't somebody think of
- 57:25Speaker 1: the women.
- 57:27Speaker 4: Absurd? The anti s j W movement became when they
- 57:34Speaker 4: sought a fence, even a single frame was enough for
- 57:41Speaker 4: them to latch onto, was enough for them to convict
- 57:45Speaker 4: and condemn you. Suddenly around them you are condemned to.
- 57:51Speaker 9: Be a meme.
- 57:55Speaker 1: What what is he? Okay, so this is you know
- 57:57Speaker 1: what he's doing here, right? I know he's using big words,
- 58:00Speaker 1: sound really smart, but all he's saying is I'm not
- 58:02Speaker 1: mad you are. That's all he's saying. Oh he's saying
- 58:06Speaker 1: something you mad, bro. He's saying you mad bro. Because like,
- 58:10Speaker 1: essentially people saw that interaction and then, by the way,
- 58:14Speaker 1: when that was going on. There were lots of videos
- 58:17Speaker 1: of like feminists losing their shit in public or arguing
- 58:22Speaker 1: with people in public about stuff and not making ridiculous
- 58:26Speaker 1: claims like one in three women. That's a ridiculous claim.
- 58:29Speaker 1: That's not a statistic, that is a ridiculous crme like
- 58:32Speaker 1: it like if one in three women was true, Okay,
- 58:35Speaker 1: I wouldn't be able to drive from my house to
- 58:38Speaker 1: the food line down the street without seeing a rape.
- 58:42Speaker 1: That's that's how absolutely insane it is. Like you know,
- 58:45Speaker 1: the rape capital of the world, which is the Congo.
- 58:49Speaker 1: I think that even those numbers are way lower than
- 58:52Speaker 1: one in three. Even there, you wouldn't see it that often.
- 58:56Speaker 1: But this woman spits that ridiculous statistic and Dark Matter
- 59:00Speaker 1: twenty five twenty five, the one billion IQ super atheist,
- 59:04Speaker 1: he doesn't even think that that's ridiculous. He's the well
- 59:06Speaker 1: that sounds like data. So I'm just gonna support it.
- 59:10Speaker 1: And when and when people take all of these clips
- 59:13Speaker 1: and they make memes out of it, because essentially, it's
- 59:16Speaker 1: not because we're mad, bro, it's because we think you're
- 59:19Speaker 1: ridiculous and we're clowning you and you don't know how
- 59:22Speaker 1: to react, so your whole thing is you must be mad. No,
- 59:26Speaker 1: it's not hard to make fun of you because you
- 59:29Speaker 1: have ridiculous beliefs about the world, about reality, and that's
- 59:33Speaker 1: all it is. So nobody's mad And I'm sorry, but
- 59:37Speaker 1: the only thing that makes me mad is that you
- 59:39Speaker 1: pretend as though you're saying something profound because you're like
- 59:43Speaker 1: sitting in front of a mic with a lot of followers.
- 59:46Speaker 1: Your ego, my friend, is way out of control. I'm sorry,
- 59:51Speaker 1: I'll just go ahead.
- 59:53Speaker 2: Well, I was just gonna say, I think it goes
- 59:54Speaker 2: beyond the you, mad bro. I believe chaos for you.
- 59:58Speaker 2: Seven twenty eight. He said my queen, I must protect
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: my queen. Yes, he is essentially saying that the anti
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: woke is bad because a man, a woman became a
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: meme unfairly. She was unfairly memed, despite the fact all
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: the men who get unfairly memed bye, also by the
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: people who are on the other side. This is evidence. This,
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: this felony meming is evidence that the anti woke side
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: needs to be disbanded. They need to pack up their
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: ship and go like no, no.
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: I also believe in science.
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: Okay, let's go, let's listen.
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: Let me, let me check the time here, let me see.
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: Send in those super chows due the just the tip.
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody sent anything in yet. Yeah, I guess you
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: guys don't really Philly strong feel strongly about this particular.
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: Everybody's just like, yeah, that's true, all.
- 1:01:04Speaker 4: Right, pon the thinnest of eggshells. What's especially funny about
- 1:01:09Speaker 4: this meme is that the source material originally came from
- 1:01:12Speaker 4: the Alex Jones channel, And we all know how calm
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: and collected Alex Jones is.
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: Yeah, that's my friend. That is righteous anger. I don't
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: know what you're talking about, so you can take that
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: and shove it.
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: Is this? Is this the entirety of his argument?
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: Yeah, you mean, I will eat your ash.
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: Memes exist women most affected, Thank you for your contradition.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: It's funny too. It's funny too because Alex Jones, Alex
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: Jones is a massive meme. Is he not heard about it?
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: Is he angry? Should we protect Alex Jones from his
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: own memes like the woman, the feminist woman, because he's
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: saying that it's not fair that we treated her that way.
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: And then he goes on the show and Alex Jones
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: meme essentially of him yelling you know and he thinks
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: that that's like a counter It's like, wait, but but
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: Alex Jones has been memed way more than that woman has. Dude,
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: does he need protecting? Is anybody gonna protect Alex Jones?
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: Anybody protect un uncle Alex? Okay, anyway, this is out Yeah,
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: Alex Jones out of context obviously, but like he's playing
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: a character and that's okay.
- 1:02:33Speaker 4: The anti woke had become obsessive, hypocritical, lacked self awareness
- 1:02:40Speaker 4: and incredibly easily.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: What are you talking easily? Oh my god, It's it's
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: like it's no, it's no you. That's his whole video,
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: no you know you?
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: And also memes exist when and most affected, Like, is
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: this the entirety of his damn argument?
- 1:03:06Speaker 9: Uh?
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: What is his argument? Shall people stop criticizing woke? Like
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: because the people on the internet found a funny still
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: and memed it, Like, so I am supposed to stop
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: criticizing the march of this collectivism into the destruction of
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: individual liberties in order to support basically a corporate agenda,
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: a corporate government collusive agenda. I'm supposed to stop criticizing
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: this because some woman got memed Okay, can we apply
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: that to like immigration, If one woman gets raped by
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: or graped by an immigrant, does that mean we have
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: to reverse the whole thing? Graping is a bit worse.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: Than meaning, Well, I think that. Well, let's play some
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: more of it. I I think I know what's going on,
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: and yeah I do, I do, But let's let's let's.
- 1:04:06Speaker 4: Keep going today. The Anita Sarkesian business model is extremely
- 1:04:11Speaker 4: successful in the opposite direction. She became the model for
- 1:04:17Speaker 4: the very people who hated her guts.
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: Uh No, people hated her guts because of her behavior.
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: Okay, because she lied. Yeah, that's because people don't lie
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: that they don't like liars.
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so she lied. But also she's been doing
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: very well for herself, very well for herself, aside from
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: that sort of regrettable incident that married herself.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: She doesn't even need to make videos anymore. She literally
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: works in the industry now Facebook and it was a
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: Facebook or Google. They named a room in the offices
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: after her. She's doing just like her grift works. Like
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: I know, he's gonna to accuse the right of grifting
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: because he made that up, the right of grifting. He's
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: gonna accuse them of anti woke, which yeah, that's the
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: same thing, but I mean he'll call it the same thing,
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: Alison Like, to him, anti woke is basically far right
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: Christian conservative patriarchy, whatever, white supremacy, it's all the same thing.
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: We're just part of that, Allison, accept it. We're part
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: of it. We are in the far right.
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: Get yeah, But I'm unfortunately I get a lot of
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: shit from them too. Incidentally, I've been.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: Argued because they're not a monolith, because.
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: With a lot of presumably Christian people who insist that
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: the men involved in the hundred person marathon arranged and
- 1:05:42Speaker 2: contracted by a woman, are just as responsible for the
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: existence of that event.
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, yeah, well it's like I like
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: I've been trying to say for a while, the so
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: called right is not one thing. It's it's basically all
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: of the people in the non left. And that's why
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: they you fight with them, because they're not really on
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: your team. They're on their own thing. But the left
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: frames them all as the opposition, so they put them
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: all in one camp together that includes you and me
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: and everyone and most of the people watching, and we
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: just have to just recognize that and just be like, Okay, So,
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: I mean lots of people have talked about this too,
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: but I feel like we're going on at a tangent.
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: So yeah, let's finish this. Oh, I got a super
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: chow from Meredith g. She gives us five bucks and says,
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: subjective offense about a meme isn't an argument. Oftentimes, the
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: best way to deal with a meme is to lean
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: into the joke. Yes, what have we found out is
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: women have no sense of humor. No, they don't thank you, Meredith,
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: really appreciate it. Well, you know what, I bet I
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: wouldn't if I bet if I found that woman and
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: I asked her how she felt about being a meme,
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: she might be upset about it. But maybe by now,
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: because that meme is like five years old, she would
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: have gotten over it and said, you know what, I
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: think it's kind of funny, right, this guy is getting
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: upset about it. It's these it's these men, these white
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: knights that come out and they're like, oh my god,
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: you're hurting your feelings. What if she does herself in?
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: What if she minecrafts herself. I don't think she's gonna
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: do that. I think she's gonna move on and get
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: over it. Hell, she might have even like grown out
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: of that phase and said, you know what, I was
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: wrong about all that because she was wrong. So but
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: I don't know, one can one can hope anyway. So yeah,
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: we're we're the ones that are angry, We're the ones
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: that are butt her, We're the ones that are grifters.
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: It's all bullshit. There's a really great video made by
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: this guy named Mentus Wave explaining how the supposed right
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: wing grifters don't exist because in order for you to
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: be a grifter, you'd have to be taking advantage of
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: the status quo. That's how you get paid. So like,
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: if I didn't want to live in an apartment paycheck
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: to paycheck, I'd be a feminist online and I'd make
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: fuck tons of money. Especially as a brown guy. I'd
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: cash in on that ship. But I have integrity, so
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: I'm not going to do that. That's what a grifter is.
- 1:08:05Speaker 4: But Anywaysian media critics who consume movies and video games
- 1:08:10Speaker 4: with the objective to actively seek out whatever in them
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: can be construed as being woke. Yes, the critical drinker,
- 1:08:21Speaker 4: nerd Rada, the Quarter and Heal versus Babyface, et cetera. Sarkisians,
- 1:08:28Speaker 4: but far more fanatical.
- 1:08:30Speaker 3: But they right there the thing, they don't have influence
- 1:08:40Speaker 3: over the industry.
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: She's in the industry as a consultant making creative decisions.
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: They're just saying I don't like this as a consumer.
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: These two things are not the same, sir, false equivalents.
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: Let's move on. If do you have it's there?
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: Well, okay, no, no, so no, I do have time codes.
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: But we jumped ahead a couple of times. But there
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: really isn't much else. He basically goes into I could
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: jump ahead to this bit where he talks about a
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: hypothetical critique of Aliens and Terminator Too if it were
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: released today, extra illustrating how any content can be framed
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: as woke with enough ideological scrutiny, highlighting the absurdity of
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: some critiques. And so he uses that to make his
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: point that like the you know these like I don't.
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: I don't know why he got on that, like you
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: know Tangent where he talks about movies and and and
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: like these video game critics, these guys online, they're just
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: really sick and tired of the subversive media trash that
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: we've been getting for the past ten years. I mean,
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: if you don't agree that that's been happening, like you
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: can just tell me in the chat. Like I think.
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: I think it has and I think it's obvious and
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: like it's and it's specifically designed as an attack on masculinity.
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: And by the way, it is a direct product of
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: feminist critique like Anita Sarkisian. So when in these Arkisia
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: was criticizing shit ten years ago on her YouTube channel
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: and getting speaking engagements and was doing presentations and visiting
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: you know, various game developing companies and doing consultations, all
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: for thousands and thousands of dollars by the way, yeah,
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: tens of thousands of dollars. She was actually changing the industry,
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: and now the industry has shifted a little bit. I
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: think it was always going in this direction. She just
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: kind of like pumped the gas on it. And then
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: the consumers or like the community that consumes these products,
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: which is men primarily, were like, this doesn't look anything
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: like what I like, I don't think I want to
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: support this anymore. And some of them were like, I
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: think I'm gonna tell other men that this shit has
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: gone to shit because of these ideologies, because of this
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: stuff being spread in these industries. And he's saying, oh,
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: you're turning into her, and it's like, no, she changed
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: things or people like her obviously affected the industry, and
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: we're reacting to it and we don't even, like you said, Allison,
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: like these guys don't have any power. It's not like
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: critical drinkers getting invited up to fucking paramount but like
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: help work on the new star trek. Like they're just
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: saying shit on the internet, which they have every right
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: to do.
- 1:11:26Speaker 2: And more than that, people who are frustrated with it
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: because this is a top down This is absurd. This
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: is like the logic here is like going to the
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: French Revolution. Well maybe that's the wrong, wrong analysis, but
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: going to any peasant revolution and saying, you peasants have
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: as much power as these nobles who are making top
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: down decisions about your life. Because you're congregating in a
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: group and complaining about it, are you freaking mental? She
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: is making top down decisions about these creative things, and
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: I get to be squeaky because I am a woman
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: to shut up in the special chat. Look, she's making
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: top down decisions for consumers of these products.
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: Yeah, she does consulting.
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: Works in the audience who do not have the power
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: that she has, because if they did, just one of
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: them would be able to reverse her decisions. Complaining about
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: how the things that they love have changed. These two
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: things are not the same, sir, not the same at all.
- 1:12:33Speaker 2: You are looking at somebody who has institutional power to
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: change the product, and you are saying that she is
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: Our people who are complaining about it on the ground
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: have the same amount of power. Are they changing the product? No,
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: The only power they have is to stop consuming it.
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: Well, there's one other really, there's one other, really important
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: thing too that he won't address. Anita Sarkisian was lying
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: and these other guys are telling the truth, and he
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: can't accept that because I guess he has some weird
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: postmodern europe. You just have an opinion, and I just
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: have an opinion. Bro attitude. But nerdrotic and healed versus
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: Babyface and me and lots of other people that are
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: talking about what's going on. They're not lying, They're telling
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: the truth. They're looking at how what has happened to J. R. R.
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: Tolkien's work? What is going to happen to C. S.
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: Lewis's work when Greta Gerwig takes over what has happened
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: to franchises like Terminator and I don't know, countless, name
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: it like whatever it is, Lord of the Rings. Right,
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: when they critique that, they're not just saying this is
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: sexist against men. And here's why they're saying this is
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: bad because it's going against the canon or it's going
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: against you know, it's like shitting in the face of
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: the original creators. And don't it doesn't respect the source material.
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: It's completely abandoned, like whatever it is, right, the hero's
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: journey whatever, that's what they're saying. So they're saying something true.
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: And Anita Serkesina is lying or was lying and still
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: lies because she just wants to profit. I mean even
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: like basically woke dudes like Thunderfoot could see that, like
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: he made countless videos about her, was lying. It's not
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: because it's just a different difference of opinions.
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: She is a liar and she has institutional power. Yes,
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: this is not the same as critical drinker being part
- 1:14:26Speaker 2: of the audience that's being having to consume what she's manipulating.
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: She has top down.
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: Power yeah, night Motorcyclist, said CDPR. And the Witcher is
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: changing because of their initiatives on hiring only women, Like
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: that's another franchise. So the Witcher was this, you know,
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: you ever read the Witcher books, Allison, Nobody likes to read.
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean they're very popular Polish. They're they're
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: very popular Polish like dark fantasy novels, and they made
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: games based on them, extremely popular, and now they're making
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: a new one and they're they're they're they're completely changing
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: the canon because they're making Siri, who is a I
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: think Gerald or garylt is the Witcher and Siri is
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: like his daughter and women can never be Witchers like
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: that was like written to the canon originally it's not possible,
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: and they're just making her into a Witcher now because feminism.
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: That's it. That's like, that's why, Like if you can
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: just throw everything out and just say put a woman
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: in it, make her layman gay, then that's just feminism
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: doing his thing. And if you point it out and
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: you say, yeah, this isn't this is wrong, that yeah,
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: somehow you're just like Anita Sarkasian even though you're literally
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: telling the truth. And that's what that what matters the most.
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: This is an example of intersectionality and this man caping
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: for corporations. Mm hmm, this is this is it.
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: And they will and they'll be like, we've got to
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: buy the product. Guys.
- 1:15:50Speaker 2: Hey, this is saying a person who has influence over
- 1:15:55Speaker 2: corporations and is making decisions on the product, and it
- 1:15:59Speaker 2: is basically, you know, within the corporate decision destructure is
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: more legitimate than the people complaining about what they're consuming
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: and not wanting to consume it. So he's essentially saying
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: that consumers must consume what the corporations tell them to. Goddamn,
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: this is th h X one one three eight. Did
- 1:16:23Speaker 2: anyone ever guess that Lucas would hit on the right
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: dystopia In the dystopia We'd beat George Lucas, he would
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: be like, Yeah, this is what we're gonna end up in.
- 1:16:34Speaker 2: We're going to end up worshiping the state in a
- 1:16:36Speaker 2: psychotic bureaucracy of enforced consumption.
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: Yeah, like that. And this, by the way, Henry Cavill,
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: who played the Witcher on the show, he left the
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: show because they were abandoning the canon. Is is he
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: also just being just like Anitas Arkisian.
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: Now no, I mean the critics of Anita Sarkisian.
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well no, but the critics. But Henry cavill
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: left because he didn't like the direction the show was going,
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: because they were going against the way it was written.
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: And he and Henry Cavill is one of these people
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: that really cares. He's an actor, he played the Witcher,
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: he played Superman. Uh, and he's one of these people
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: that really cares about being true to the source material.
- 1:17:17Speaker 2: He has less control over this than Anita Sarkisians, the
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: Anita Sarkisian and all of the consultants, the corporate consultants
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: that she represents. He has, the star has less control
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: over the product than they do. And this man is saying,
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: how dare you complain? You're just if you get angry,
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: you're just as bad as there needed No, oh sir, Yeah.
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: The last thing here.
- 1:17:47Speaker 4: Nobody believed her.
- 1:17:51Speaker 9: Now, I could go on and on and on and on,
- 1:17:53Speaker 9: but clearly the point is that the timeless classics Alien
- 1:17:59Speaker 9: and Terminy were bastardized by woke Hollywood sequels.
- 1:18:05Speaker 4: Nobody asked for all right, that's enough, you get the idea.
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: All right, shower He's basically trying to say that if
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: you applied the same lens of critique to Aliens and
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: Predator or Aliens and Terminator two, that you would also,
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: you know, find it to be woke.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: No, and he doesn't understand. It's not that there were
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: female characters. It was that these characters were defined by
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: their actions. And also I think that Sarah, like in
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: The Terminator to the Second Terminator, she did Sir Connor,
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: Sarah Connor, she did start backsliding into some feminist nonsense
- 1:18:45Speaker 2: and her her son was like, please, you know so
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: it was.
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: Even little yeah direct she was threatening Miles Dyson and
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: saying it was men like you that created the atomic bomb.
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: And then he was like, because his mom was out
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: of a mental institution, Well, that seems in character for
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: for But I will say this though, The one thing
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: that I think should be pointed out those movies were
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: subversive in their own way, and to like recognize that
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: is it doesn't mean that the movies can't be enjoyed.
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: Like I love those movies, but they are still progressive
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: for their time, and it's okay to recognize that that
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: doesn't mean anything. I'm not triggered by it. I own
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: them on DVD. I have like the Metal Box for
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: Terminator two. I think it's a great movie, right, but
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: that you can also acknowledge that, yes, these feminist themes
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: were there. It's just that James Cameron was a lot
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: better at putting it in his films than modern filmmakers
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: are today, where they would like hams. And then James
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: Cameron dropped the ball on the last Terminator movie, whatever
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: the hell it was called, when they brought back Sarah
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: Connor as like a super grandma and they had what's
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: her name from that show used to like so much.
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about, Cameron or whatever.
- 1:19:56Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, but yeah, let me push back a little
- 1:20:00Speaker 2: bit on that. The original Terminator she started off as
- 1:20:03Speaker 2: sort of like a ditsy I think, not waitress or
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: maybe secretary, and she actually had to earn any kind
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: of toughness, so did Ripley, and she even started off
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: slightly tough because you know, space trucker type. But like,
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: that's the idea that they are. They progress in their skills,
- 1:20:26Speaker 2: they earn their skills through their actions and choices, and
- 1:20:29Speaker 2: even the fact that Ripley sort of had to have
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: the cat to kind of add to the sense of
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: peril and the fact that she had to be presented
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: as a protective figure of something I would say, I mean,
- 1:20:40Speaker 2: if it's feminist, it's it's the kind of feminist where
- 1:20:45Speaker 2: maybe it was the kind of feminist that I was,
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: where you focus on the idea of women's actions being
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: as important as men's, their moral choices being as important
- 1:20:56Speaker 2: as men's, and the necessity of their responsibilities being equivalent
- 1:21:00Speaker 2: to men's, if not equivalent, if not directly equivalent, then
- 1:21:04Speaker 2: at least equivalent in terms of personal sacrifice. Does that
- 1:21:08Speaker 2: make sense, you know? And that that would be a
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: feminism that I would have gladly continued to be a
- 1:21:16Speaker 2: part of until I realized I was the only one.
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: I was literally the only one. When I was that
- 1:21:23Speaker 2: feminist who said women's responsibilities should their rights should be
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: commiserate with their responsibilities, So there should be if women
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: are allowed to have control over men, they should be
- 1:21:33Speaker 2: responsible for men's protection, right, that kind of thing. When
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: I was calling myself a feminist and that was my
- 1:21:40Speaker 2: feminist position, I looked around and I realized that I
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: was completely alone, completely alone. And then I also realized
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: that other feminists who believe that women don't have to
- 1:21:53Speaker 2: have responsibilities equal to their rights were using the existence
- 1:21:58Speaker 2: of women like me to pretend that that was what
- 1:22:01Speaker 2: feminism was, and that was like that that that made
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: me up chuck a little in my mouth and say, nope,
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: I'm not being a part of this bullshit anymore. Anyway. Yeah,
- 1:22:10Speaker 2: let's keep going.
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's basically it. I could just read
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: the last bit that he ends on. Yeah, so we do.
- 1:22:18Speaker 2: I do have one thank you to give. Oh good,
- 1:22:23Speaker 2: Richard hasn't, so what we and if you want us
- 1:22:28Speaker 2: to give you an on on the air, thank you,
- 1:22:31Speaker 2: please please put in your support before the end of
- 1:22:34Speaker 2: the show. And once again that's feedbadger dot com slash support.
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: So let's do it, all right.
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: So okay, So I'm just gonna read this bit here
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: because this sort of like sums up what I think
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: is going on, and this is I'm afraid it's gonna
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: get a little bit theological only because A Dark Matter
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: twenty five to twenty five built his channel on atheism
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: and not on social justice or feminism. But what you
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: will find them as you dig into atheism, it's really
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: just secular humanism. Is that is, it's going to be feminists.
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: Like that's sort of like an inevitable consequence of atheism itself.
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: This is what atheism plus for any of you old
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: heads that remember, this is like what killed the atheist
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: movement whatever that is online was was the feminists because
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: they were like, well, we need some kind of moral hierarchy.
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: Let's put women at the top or something. And that's
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: kind of how you got it and Dark Matter twenty
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: five to twenty five. His brand is like based in
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: his secular humanists viewpoint, his agenda in that way. So
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: if anything even starts to look like it's becoming like
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: a resistance to that, then he's going to like hit back,
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: and he's going to hit back in whatever in the
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: way that he knows, which is essentially to you know,
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: call them all bigots. Right, So here's what he says,
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: and if you want, I could play the clip, but
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: it's he goes on for a bit, so now I
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: could go on and on. It's it's an analysis. He's
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: talking about the woke shit. I'm gonna jump jump ahead
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: here now. If you don't want an agenda driven critique
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: of movies in either direction, you can look at Jeremy
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: John's or Red Letter Media to give a more objective
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: and knowledgeable critique of movies, but not the people who
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: are constantly on the hunt for wokesm so they can
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: feed outrage to their audiences, because you know, that's what
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: we when we point out what's wrong, and like people
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: are like, oh, yeah, that explains it. That's us feeding outrage.
- 1:24:36Speaker 1: That's not us explaining to people. Yeah, this is coming
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: from you know, this like camming agenda, and this is
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: what they do, and they're yeah, they're destroying yeah, things
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: that you love on purpose.
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: Let me get in here for a second. So I'm
- 1:24:50Speaker 2: guessing that he would consider somebody like me and my
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: analysis to be anti woke, although my the thing that
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: I point out is that woke minimizes and trivializes the
- 1:25:02Speaker 2: decisions of the groups of people it supposedly advocates for.
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: And what I mean by that is, when you watch
- 1:25:09Speaker 2: these shows, the decisions of the white cis het men
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: always carry more moral weight, They're always more interesting, they
- 1:25:19Speaker 2: always have more consequences. I mean, even in the re
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: envisioning of Star Wars, who had to save the day
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: at the end of the day, even if he was
- 1:25:28Speaker 2: a cynical blue milk drinking mess. Luke still had to
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: step in and sacrifice to save the day, because at
- 1:25:37Speaker 2: the end of the day, it's the men. This seems
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: to be the role of the men. Even in the
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: final episode of the trilogy. Of the sequel trilogy, Ken Right,
- 1:25:46Speaker 2: Kylo Wren sorry had to step in and save the day.
- 1:25:49Speaker 2: Who ended up being the most interesting character in the
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: Barbie movie, the one who with the most interesting dilemma
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: that actually had something of a character arc. Ken Why,
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: because you can allow male characters to be morally wrong,
- 1:26:04Speaker 2: to make mistakes, so you can actually invest in them
- 1:26:08Speaker 2: as a full human being. Because and this is something
- 1:26:11Speaker 2: I said to a woman who was arguing persistently that
- 1:26:16Speaker 2: men are solely responsible for behavior for pregnancies because they
- 1:26:20Speaker 2: control ejaculation. Now, whether or not men do actually have
- 1:26:25Speaker 2: conscious control over ejaculation, or whether it's a reflex, and
- 1:26:28Speaker 2: whether or not that's actually true, because you can't actually
- 1:26:31Speaker 2: get pregnant just by having sex without ejaculation, because they're
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: sperm and pre come. Let's set all of this aside.
- 1:26:37Speaker 2: There are a whole bunch of choices that women make
- 1:26:39Speaker 2: that result in a pregnancy being carried to term you
- 1:26:42Speaker 2: have to just completely like, no, I don't care about them,
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: just flick them into the garbage. In order to come
- 1:26:48Speaker 2: to the conclusion that men are solely or primarily responsible
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: for pregnancy, you just have to not care about women's choices.
- 1:26:56Speaker 2: And there is a knot of not caring about women's
- 1:26:59Speaker 2: choices Woke. And that offends me on a cellular lemo
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: as a woman, because I know how important the recognition
- 1:27:08Speaker 2: of those choices is to me as a person, to
- 1:27:11Speaker 2: my understanding of myself as a person, to being a
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: full human being. All right, And that is my criticism
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: of Woke. You can shit all over that as much
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: as you like Dark Matter twenty five twenty five, because
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: I'm sure you are yet another man who thinks that
- 1:27:27Speaker 2: the consequences of women's choices should be appended to men's
- 1:27:32Speaker 2: so that men get to have all of the consequence,
- 1:27:35Speaker 2: all of the importance. They're the ones that cause everything
- 1:27:39Speaker 2: to happen. They are the Alpha and Omega. Yeah, fuck
- 1:27:43Speaker 2: off and go meditate. You're so freaking angry it's unpleasant,
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: all right, So.
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: Let me continue jumping ahead, he says. So. Yeah, ten
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: years ago, I jumped on the anti woke bandwagon. Ever,
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: so briefly before I realized what actually was an obsessive,
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: hypocritical ideology that was rooted in demographic hatred. Much respect
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: to the people who never jumped on board that bandwagon,
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: you're way ahead of the curve. So, okay, you're all biggots, guys,
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: that's basically what he landed on. Oh I figured it out.
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: You're all biggots.
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: Now, if you were on it until more recently, well,
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: at least you found your way off eventually. It takes
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: a lot of integrity to admit when you're wrong, okay,
- 1:28:25Speaker 1: especially after being wrong for several years. We should always
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: be willing to forgive.
- 1:28:29Speaker 2: Well, was he ever anti woke?
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: He probably was for a bit because see when the when,
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: the when, when the progressives, the Wokes, the sgw's, the
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: fucking Marxist whatever you want to call it, when they
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: became really really ubiquitous and obnoxious, he was probably like, yeah,
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: or they started denying, like you know, biological reality. He
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: probably felt the need to say something just because it
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: was making him look bad. But now that he thinks, like,
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: you know, he's on the losing side, because let's see
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: how old this video is how old is this video?
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: I just want to look now, when did this come out?
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: Two weeks ago? So yeah, now now that he sees
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: himself in the position of losing because the election that
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: now he's in, boldened to double down. Because these people
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: operate the most from a position that they perceive as
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: as beneath are weaker. That's when they're strongest. So when
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: feminists lose, they think they win because now they get
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: to complain more because they had something to complain about.
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: So but let me let me finish this, because I
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: know you want to say a lot, but all right.
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: I want to say yay, okay, okay, we got yes.
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: Uh. Now, if you're still on that bandwagon, what the
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: fuck are you doing? Get your ship together? Now? We
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: have even have people who were prominent atheists like Sam
- 1:29:51Speaker 1: Harris and Richard Dawkins and Hersy Ali crying about the
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: wokeness boogeyman, to the point that some of them are
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: even claiming to be culturally Christian or even outrightful Christian.
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: Now that is the money shot, right there, guys, that's
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: his problem. More and more as our country or our
- 1:30:10Speaker 1: world has descended into chaos after what's happened in the
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: last five years or six years, which I was gonna
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: say five years. More and more people are turning to
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: some kind of spiritual answer ion. Hersi Ali abandoned her
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: atheism and became like full on Christian, and Richard Dawkins
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: has said, well, I like to think of myself as
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: a cultural Christian because his country is being overrun right
- 1:30:41Speaker 1: by Muslims essentially, and they're having an existential crisis, and
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: dark matters. Problem is not the fact that the UK
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: is going to have like tremendous like suffering coming up
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: as a result of unmitigated immigration, or the fact that
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: more and more people are going to church because they're
- 1:31:03Speaker 1: trying to like find some spiritual answers or something else.
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: That's not his problem. It's not that what caused that.
- 1:31:12Speaker 1: It's the fact that they're abandoning his religion, which is atheism.
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: Oh okay, so all.
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: Right, but let me let me finish this. That's how
- 1:31:21Speaker 1: shallow the nature of this beast has become. But why Christianity, Well,
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: because they're not buying into real Christianity, the Christianity of
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, which is very woke and concerned with the
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: downtrodden and marginalize. Another bullshit misrepresentation when when christ says
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: that you should take care of people, he doesn't say
- 1:31:39Speaker 1: vote for the socialist government. And people donate like more
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: conservatives donate than liberals do in general, like in large numbers.
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: So again, he just doesn't like us. That's it. He
- 1:31:52Speaker 1: just doesn't like us. They're buying into the modern, commercialized, propagandaized,
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: far right version of Christianity because they think it's a
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: bulwark against what it's really sad to see. It's like
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: watching a starving person verage voraciously eat poison. So that's
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: that's it. That's what his That's what it ultimately comes
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: down to. That's what it comes down to.
- 1:32:11Speaker 2: I would imagine that Jesus would focus more on charity
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: as a personal choice, because if it's forced, it's meaningless.
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: Exactly. It is, like, that's the whole thing about Christianity.
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: That's why it has to be a choice. It has.
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: It has what is it, uh, freedom of will? Free will? Yeah,
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: free will as a central premise right.
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: You have, isn't it. It's interesting because we still frame
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: everything in terms of men having free will and women not,
- 1:32:46Speaker 2: and yet free will is a is a huge in
- 1:32:48Speaker 2: our culture. Free will is a huge component of being recognized.
- 1:32:51Speaker 2: It's human. So what does that mean really? Like, what
- 1:32:55Speaker 2: are you idolizing when you idolize women but you take
- 1:32:58Speaker 2: away their free will? Like anyway, it's it's just I'm
- 1:33:02Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna point something out with I finished. I
- 1:33:05Speaker 2: never finished the sequel trilogy for Star Wars. It's actually astounding,
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: what Abraham. I watched all three of them in the
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: last week, back to back, not back to back like
- 1:33:17Speaker 2: there's a day between each one. But and so now
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: I've watched the original, the prequels, and the sequels, and
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: it's interesting to watch the deterioration. Now I would I
- 1:33:30Speaker 2: would argue that the prequels, what happened there is Lucas
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: is not a character director. He also seems to struggle
- 1:33:39Speaker 2: with narrative beats, like strong emotional beats. Jay J. Abrams
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: is sort of good at that. Unfortunately he has other problems.
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: But this is what I wanted to bring out about
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: the sequels. As you watch them, you start to realize
- 1:33:55Speaker 2: that the the the driving in the driving philosophy behind
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: this is that the writer and the director are white
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: knights giving Ray shit that she has not earned. Like literally,
- 1:34:12Speaker 2: this this becomes a man sitting in a room fantasizing
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: about all the stuff he can give a woman because
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: he's so powerful as a writer. And it's grotesque. This
- 1:34:25Speaker 2: isn't about Ray as a character earning anything that she gets.
- 1:34:29Speaker 2: She gets everything just by virtue of being Ray, by
- 1:34:34Speaker 2: her bizarre meta relationship with the writer who's white knighting
- 1:34:40Speaker 2: for her. And it is really uncomfortable to watch because
- 1:34:45Speaker 2: you know that there's nothing this female character has done
- 1:34:48Speaker 2: for herself. It's all this fine, weird kind of writerly
- 1:34:53Speaker 2: incest between the writer and this character that he's decided
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: to give everything too. When you're writing, you want to
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: try to maintain a sense like suspension of disbelief. And
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: when you're writing a female character achieving things, you want
- 1:35:09Speaker 2: to show those things flowing from her actions and choices,
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: and you want to make sure that you have reasonable
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: amounts of obstacles so that that facsimile is appear appears.
- 1:35:21Speaker 2: And then the thing is that people watch and read
- 1:35:24Speaker 2: this stuff and they model it in their own heads.
- 1:35:29Speaker 2: But the problem is, what are you modeling? What are
- 1:35:31Speaker 2: women modeling when they watch a character like Ray, they're
- 1:35:35Speaker 2: subconsciously modeling the all powerful writer giving this weak, irrelevant
- 1:35:43Speaker 2: female character everything on a silver platter. Whereas when you
- 1:35:47Speaker 2: watch somebody like Ripley in in Aliens, you can see
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: the process of her coming to grips with what she's
- 1:35:57Speaker 2: experiencing and making the choices necessary to stand up to
- 1:36:02Speaker 2: it in any capacity in order to survive. You can
- 1:36:05Speaker 2: see the same thing with Sarah Connor. You can see
- 1:36:09Speaker 2: these steps that are being taken to live up to
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: something that's not barin Ray. And when you do that,
- 1:36:15Speaker 2: you're actually constructing a model for women to look at
- 1:36:20Speaker 2: and be able to do the same thing. I don't
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: think it's any any coincidence that the highest number of
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: women in STEM was in the eighties and nine, or
- 1:36:31Speaker 2: the mid to eighties, when these kinds of characters were
- 1:36:34Speaker 2: most prevalent. You took a female character who didn't start
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: with everything, or wasn't just granted everything by the writer,
- 1:36:41Speaker 2: but the writer wrote her believably developing the skills and
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: decisions to overcome her the obstacle that she was facing,
- 1:36:50Speaker 2: and we don't see that anymore. It's all just Mary
- 1:36:53Speaker 2: Too's that are basically the recipients of the white knighting
- 1:36:57Speaker 2: of their authors. And this is supposed to be in advance,
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: Like seriously, okay, sorry, I'll get off my my my mind,
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: all right, I put that out there. That's not an
- 1:37:09Speaker 2: advance in how we portray women in fiction. It's a regression.
- 1:37:14Speaker 2: I mean, this is basically Ray Ray is not a hero.
- 1:37:18Speaker 2: She's not a powerful character. She is a damsel being
- 1:37:25Speaker 2: saved from everything by the genie writer. Okay, by the
- 1:37:32Speaker 2: male genie writer. That's that is not any kind It's
- 1:37:37Speaker 2: not I don't even want to use the term empowerment.
- 1:37:40Speaker 2: That isn't even development as a human being. Okay, all right,
- 1:37:45Speaker 2: I will I'll leave it at that.
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: All right. Anyway, Yeah, that's basically the video. I mean,
- 1:37:50Speaker 1: like essentially, the take home is I don't like the
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: direction of the wind that the wind is blowing, and
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: I mean I get it. It's you know, it's scary,
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: but it is what it is. You're just gonna to adapt. Yeah,
- 1:38:03Speaker 1: but this is like the the world you created when
- 1:38:07Speaker 1: you basically told people to like practice social distance thing,
- 1:38:10Speaker 1: mask up, get the jab and like that their men
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: are shit because the patriarchy and that you know, owning
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: property is bad and you should be forced to give
- 1:38:19Speaker 1: it away and God is dead and all these other
- 1:38:21Speaker 1: things you put out there. Eventually it was gonna be
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: a reaction, and that's what we're getting now. And basically
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: you're lucky that it's not really that severe. It's like, oh,
- 1:38:30Speaker 1: you know what, I think I'm gonna I think I'm
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: gonna stop paying attention to what you say. I think
- 1:38:33Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop giving you, supporting, you know, people with
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: my hard earned money that hate me for who I am.
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: And I think I'm gonna go back to church or
- 1:38:42Speaker 1: whatever it is. And you're like, oh, no, Richard Dawkins, No, well,
- 1:38:49Speaker 1: I mean you lose. I guess, I don't know. We'll
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: see so yeah, but yeah, I mean I'm not mad,
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: Like I'm not.
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: I'm not taking this from the approach of having a
- 1:39:00Speaker 2: horse in the race when it comes to what people believe.
- 1:39:03Speaker 2: I'm just like, yeah, you're you're making false comparisons, dude.
- 1:39:08Speaker 2: And Anita Sarkisian isn't the same as the critical drinker,
- 1:39:12Speaker 2: and the reason why is Aarnita Anita has top down
- 1:39:15Speaker 2: power over the things that the critical drinker at the
- 1:39:18Speaker 2: end of the day has to consume. And it's a
- 1:39:20Speaker 2: frustrating position to be. In no doubt, like all the
- 1:39:24Speaker 2: critical drinker can do is influence other people who are
- 1:39:26Speaker 2: disgusted with the changes that all of the Anita Sarkisians
- 1:39:30Speaker 2: are making into not buying this stuff.
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: And I've been telling them what to buy. He's just
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: saying I didn't like this, and here's why.
- 1:39:39Speaker 2: Like you know, critics, I'm not even for all of
- 1:39:42Speaker 2: the so called anti woke criticism. I think some of
- 1:39:44Speaker 2: it is it is knee jerk, so I could criticize that,
- 1:39:49Speaker 2: but I would criticize it on its merits, not just
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: because it's pushing people towards Christianity. What okay? Anyway, Okay,
- 1:39:58Speaker 2: I want to give out some thank yous, and I
- 1:40:02Speaker 2: do have other stuff that I'm doing today, so I
- 1:40:05Speaker 2: wanted to have a big thank you to Meredith g
- 1:40:09Speaker 2: for one hundred smackarrooneys. Thank you, Meredith, and another thank
- 1:40:16Speaker 2: you to Richard Bierre for five hundred smacaroonys just by
- 1:40:21Speaker 2: complete coincidence. Thank you, Richard. You're the best.
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: Yeah, you can go ahead and talk.
- 1:40:35Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Richard, Richard's Richard's the best. I was hoping
- 1:40:41Speaker 2: you do the the Donald voice.
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: Oh this is the best Richard. This is the best Richard.
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: He supports us. Well, that's what they tell me. I mean,
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: I wasn't ready that, I didn't prepare anything.
- 1:40:57Speaker 2: It made me happy, Brian, that's all.
- 1:40:59Speaker 1: Well, that's all that.

- 1:41:04Speaker 2: the show, you want to make sure we can keep
- 1:41:05Speaker 2: doing this content, which is pretty unique as far as
- 1:41:08Speaker 2: I'm concerned, I don't think there's anybody who makes the
- 1:41:10Speaker 2: connection at the way that we do between not recognizing
- 1:41:14Speaker 2: men's issues and all of the crap that we see,
- 1:41:16Speaker 2: and it's gonna get worse. It is not gonna get
- 1:41:19Speaker 2: better until we start recognizing men's issues. The simple fact is,
- 1:41:22Speaker 2: you know, men are sort of really critical to the
- 1:41:25Speaker 2: maintenance of our society anyway. So if you like that message,
