- 1:56Speaker 2: We're gonna be looking at a couple of vintage video
- 2:01Speaker 2: from the you know about times of feminists past, the
- 2:05Speaker 2: ghost of feminist past, which is more of a Christmas
- 2:08Speaker 2: reference than a Halloween one.
- 2:09Speaker 1: But it is scary. So I guess it's in tune
- 2:12Speaker 1: with with the months of Spootober.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Maybe it's it's spooky how nothing has changed.
- 2:20Speaker 2: No, it is it's spooky that no one uh is
- 2:26Speaker 2: taking notice, sort of like invasion of the body snatchers,
- 2:29Speaker 2: like more people have become pod people, and yeah, not
- 2:33Speaker 2: a lot has changed.
- 2:34Speaker 4: But.
- 2:35Speaker 2: We're here to nonetheless point the finger and say, look,
- 2:40Speaker 2: this is what's going on, and hoping that people will
- 2:43Speaker 2: you know, shake out of their their dream state.
- 2:48Speaker 3: And not stop saying that there was some kind of
- 2:51Speaker 3: feminists past.

- 2:54Speaker 3: No, it's always been.
- 2:55Speaker 1: This feminists of feminism of the past that was.
- 2:58Speaker 3: You know, what's happened is that the toxic waste has
- 3:02Speaker 3: now come to your community. So you're starting to notice it.
- 3:06Speaker 3: And uh, but feminism has always been this bad. Yeah,
- 3:10Speaker 3: and we're going to take a look at that. And

- 4:12Speaker 1: He's all right. No, I like Freddy Krueger too.
- 4:14Speaker 2: I just prefer Jason that Jason is, you know, I mean,
- 4:17Speaker 2: he's not the og that would be Michael Myers or Leatherface,
- 4:22Speaker 2: but he's one of the he's one of them. He's
- 4:24Speaker 2: part of the you know, of the people who started it,
- 4:29Speaker 2: and I include Freddy and Chucky in that as well.
- 4:31Speaker 2: So yeah, shout out to Freddy Krueger and Jason Vorhees.
- 4:37Speaker 2: But anyway, all right and Zero.
- 4:40Speaker 3: Yes, of course Zero, who's also well, I guess he
- 4:44Speaker 3: isn't really an og because the Nightmare before Christmas.
- 4:47Speaker 2: I mean, I don't want to hear like people are
- 4:49Speaker 2: gonna it's it's considered vintage now it's considered retro, So
- 4:54Speaker 2: I don't want to think about that. I mean, like
- 4:58Speaker 2: the Force Awakens, the start of the end of Star
- 5:01Speaker 2: Wars is almost ten years old. Let that that sync
- 5:07Speaker 2: in how long it's been, how old we are. But anyway,
- 5:12Speaker 2: so you were gonna ask me about my show yesterday
- 5:15Speaker 2: with Blue.
- 5:16Speaker 3: Orange, mm hmm, I was what exactly happened, because we're
- 5:20Speaker 3: gonna try to do it, and.
- 5:21Speaker 2: We're gonna we're gonna have him back on. Yes, we're
- 5:25Speaker 2: gonna have him back on. But frankly, I don't have
- 5:27Speaker 2: much more information than you guys.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Like when we were done with the call, he just left.
- 5:32Speaker 2: And then like I think late last night or early
- 5:35Speaker 2: in the morning, I don't know, he sent me a
- 5:38Speaker 2: message today. Man, I really filed that up. I'm sorry,
- 5:40Speaker 2: I want to do this over, blah blah blah. So
- 5:43Speaker 2: I was like, okay, well we'll do it over. He
- 5:44Speaker 2: wants to do it soon, and I was like, well,
- 5:46Speaker 2: just get some rest. So he said that it was
- 5:52Speaker 2: like jet lag. I'm just gonna I'm just gonna go
- 5:56Speaker 2: with it. I suspect something else. I don't know what
- 5:59Speaker 2: jet lag does to people, but it's fine, like whatever,
- 6:03Speaker 2: as long as he's like, you know, gonna be better
- 6:05Speaker 2: next time. Maybe what's Yeah, he said he was sleep
- 6:09Speaker 2: deprived and jet lagged. So I've never been jet lagged.
- 6:14Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, Like I guess, like I
- 6:17Speaker 2: flew from Australia to home to Chicago and that was rough.
- 6:23Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, could you be like, is
- 6:25Speaker 2: that justifiable?
- 6:26Speaker 1: Jet lag?
- 6:27Speaker 2: Also fly from London to Chicago. We did it a
- 6:30Speaker 2: couple of times. I think I was really tired because
- 6:34Speaker 2: I think even though you're sitting on a plane, it's
- 6:36Speaker 2: kind of exhausting. But I don't know, I don't know
- 6:38Speaker 2: what I always assumed jet lag meant that, you know,
- 6:42Speaker 2: time zones are thrown off because you're going from one
- 6:44Speaker 2: time zone to another and you haven't adapted to it,
- 6:48Speaker 2: so like your sleep cycle is all screwed up. That's
- 6:51Speaker 2: what I thought, But I don't know.
- 6:54Speaker 3: I have to answer a question there. So Jim Bottle asks, Allison,
- 6:58Speaker 3: can I send one Andy five? I have one time
- 7:00Speaker 3: to the Badger's Meet membership to be a ten dollars
- 7:04Speaker 3: a month member. Actually, somebody else asked me something similar
- 7:07Speaker 3: and I.
- 7:07Speaker 1: Ended up putting one time membership thing.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Yeah, I ended up putting together like a a yearly subscription.
- 7:18Speaker 3: And it's I don't know if you I don't really
- 7:22Speaker 3: have a link to it available, like an easy link
- 7:25Speaker 3: like I have with the events with you know, subscribe
- 7:28Speaker 3: and help, but I do have it. So maybe maybe
- 7:32Speaker 3: what I could do is I'll put I'll give it
- 7:34Speaker 3: to Brian, like I'll make a nice link, a nice
- 7:37Speaker 3: pretty link, and then I'll give it to Brian to
- 7:39Speaker 3: put in the low bar. So take a take a
- 7:41Speaker 3: look down there. And I don't actually have a ten
- 7:44Speaker 3: dollars a month subscription option have fifteen dollars, but that
- 7:48Speaker 3: might be more than you were intending. Okay, so I'll
- 7:53Speaker 3: look into it. I'll figure it out for you, all right, Okay,
- 7:57Speaker 3: let's should we.
- 7:58Speaker 1: Uh yeah, let's get into the video. So we have
- 8:01Speaker 1: two videos and the this was a.
- 8:07Speaker 2: This was a suggestion, right, this was a recommendation from
- 8:12Speaker 2: the great indoors.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Is that correct?
- 8:14Speaker 4: Mm?
- 8:16Speaker 3: Yeah, who is actually sponsoring this response?

- 9:07Speaker 3: let's get started. Thank you great endors for sponsoring this.
- 9:10Speaker 3: I think it's also a really good topic because sometimes
- 9:13Speaker 3: we need to look back. I know Hannah's also doing this,
- 9:15Speaker 3: but we need to look back at feminists of Halloween's.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Past, yesterday the Yeah, so feminists of the sixties. We
- 9:26Speaker 2: have two videos and one of them is eight minutes long,
- 9:30Speaker 2: and that's the one I have here displayed. This one
- 9:33Speaker 2: is called oh, it's just called feminist footage, I think.
- 9:36Speaker 2: So it's just like old footage from the feminist movement.
- 9:40Speaker 2: And then there's another one called Miss America, which I
- 9:43Speaker 2: think is a little bit more robust. You know, it's
- 9:45Speaker 2: got more stuff in it in it. So let's let's
- 9:49Speaker 2: just watch this. You see, we're just going to open
- 9:52Speaker 2: up with the opening.
- 9:53Speaker 5: So experience which Black Americans were having did not go
- 9:59Speaker 5: unnoticed by the rest of America. Something had started that
- 10:03Speaker 5: was beginning to spread a new kind of pride, identity,
- 10:08Speaker 5: and consciousness that was about to turn the mass movements
- 10:11Speaker 5: of the nineteen sixties into new and different forms of activism.
- 10:16Speaker 3: Now, we fought public accommodations fight ten years ago with
- 10:18Speaker 3: the blacks, so we're gonna have to start all over
- 10:20Speaker 3: again with women. About was like a sign up there,
- 10:22Speaker 3: said blacks only or whites only. It's the same president there.
- 10:25Speaker 6: We are women are persons, women.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Are people, all right.
- 10:29Speaker 2: So this is essentially the origin of the second wave
- 10:34Speaker 2: feminist movement.
- 10:35Speaker 1: I guess that's what people call it.
- 10:37Speaker 2: I don't know if it was called the second wave
- 10:39Speaker 2: movement at the time that it was going on.
- 10:42Speaker 7: Hm.
- 10:42Speaker 1: And it basically attached this helf to the civil rights movement.
- 10:46Speaker 1: That's why you.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Have this, you know, where they're like, well, you did
- 10:49Speaker 2: this for blacks, so you should do this for women.
- 10:53Speaker 2: It was always parasitic in that way. I have criticisms
- 10:58Speaker 2: of the civil rights movement too, don't get me wrong,
- 11:00Speaker 2: but we're not talking about that right now. So this
- 11:03Speaker 2: is just like an uh you know, these are just
- 11:05Speaker 2: clips of the periods you could see that. This is
- 11:08Speaker 2: like like literally what's going on right now?
- 11:10Speaker 1: Right?
- 11:10Speaker 2: So we had this movement. It still exists in a
- 11:13Speaker 2: way we have Black Lives Matter. It was feminist women
- 11:16Speaker 2: using black men to get power and money and resources
- 11:21Speaker 2: and influence.
- 11:23Speaker 1: And this is I mean, it's basically the same thing.
- 11:26Speaker 1: They're just they're just.
- 11:27Speaker 2: Changing, you know, uh, changing their hand in the deck.
- 11:31Speaker 2: What's what's the hand I can use here?
- 11:33Speaker 3: So yeah, well, yeah, I wanted to add to that
- 11:36Speaker 3: because I've been thinking a lot about this and getting
- 11:38Speaker 3: into these arguments, and a lot of feminists and people
- 11:43Speaker 3: who are feminist leaning, or actually most people just use
- 11:48Speaker 3: feminist framework in their day to day because it's it's
- 11:52Speaker 3: you know, it's useful.
- 11:54Speaker 8: It's useful.
- 11:55Speaker 3: It's like a religion, it's got its uses. And when
- 11:58Speaker 3: I was debating back and forth on Twitter, which is
- 12:01Speaker 3: why I do this on Twitter, because I really want
- 12:03Speaker 3: to understand where the thinking is coming from and sort
- 12:06Speaker 3: of contrast it with my own thinking, I realize that
- 12:10Speaker 3: this whole evolution of the situation with slavery in the
- 12:17Speaker 3: US and how it sort of ended up falling down
- 12:21Speaker 3: into two groups like black people and white people. The
- 12:26Speaker 3: whole evolution of all of that and then the civil
- 12:31Speaker 3: rights movement and then moving towards what's happening now is
- 12:34Speaker 3: really beneficial in buttressing some of the arguments that feminists make.
- 12:39Speaker 3: And one argument in particular that I've been going through
- 12:42Speaker 3: and I probably do like maybe a solo video on this,
- 12:44Speaker 3: is that for some reason they.
- 12:49Speaker 8: Can look throughout history.
- 13:05Speaker 3: Case what has happened, is this an oppressed people or
- 13:09Speaker 3: a group that was being oppressed, usually through tribalism or
- 13:12Speaker 3: you know, military stuff or what have you, but also
- 13:16Speaker 3: you know, in terms of being like being slaves, they
- 13:19Speaker 3: would either they would usually appeal to a third party
- 13:26Speaker 3: that existed separate from their oppressor. So they would appeal
- 13:30Speaker 3: to someone who was ethically, politically cultural, a group ethically
- 13:35Speaker 3: or politically culturally distinct from the people oppressing them. And
- 13:39Speaker 3: they would appeal to a political conflict or a political
- 13:44Speaker 3: or military conflict between the two, and that's how they
- 13:47Speaker 3: got their interests advanced. They never appealed directly to their oppressors.
- 13:53Speaker 3: And the history of civil rights, the history of slavery
- 13:58Speaker 3: and segregation and all of that, the initial situation when
- 14:03Speaker 3: it sort of fell down into it being like an
- 14:06Speaker 3: institution where white people were the slave owners and black
- 14:10Speaker 3: people were the slaves, because before then there was a
- 14:13Speaker 3: lot more. There was a period of time where it
- 14:15Speaker 3: seemed like everything was up for grabs in a way,
- 14:17Speaker 3: so that when that happened, what ended up having to
- 14:22Speaker 3: happen to remove slavery in the States in particular. And
- 14:26Speaker 3: I'm just focusing on the States because this is the
- 14:28Speaker 3: one where we mostly look at in other cultures around
- 14:32Speaker 3: the world. For example, Britain had been had outlawed slavery
- 14:36Speaker 3: before then, but it took the North invading, breaking the
- 14:43Speaker 3: military might of the South and forcing laws on the
- 14:48Speaker 3: South in order to make this happen. And also the
- 14:52Speaker 3: issue of slavery had to be on the table as
- 14:56Speaker 3: being something beneficial for the North to get rid of
- 14:59Speaker 3: in order to we in the South and in order
- 15:02Speaker 3: to create uprisings in the South and create conflict in
- 15:06Speaker 3: the South that it could then exploit go in militarily.
- 15:09Speaker 3: So when you look at this, that's what had to
- 15:12Speaker 3: happen in the situation with slavery. At no point did
- 15:18Speaker 3: slaves necessarily on mass go up to the people who
- 15:21Speaker 3: were oppressing them on mass and say, hey, we don't
- 15:25Speaker 3: like this. Could you please stop?
- 15:27Speaker 1: No?
- 15:27Speaker 3: Or no, not even we don't like this. You are
- 15:29Speaker 3: a bunch of bigots. How dare you oppress us?
- 15:33Speaker 1: Now?
- 15:33Speaker 3: You will stop now. At no point did that happen.
- 15:36Speaker 3: It was a conflate. It was like a whole bunch
- 15:38Speaker 3: of military, political and other factors, and ultimately they had
- 15:42Speaker 3: to appeal to a third party in terms of the North,
- 15:44Speaker 3: which was culturally distinct and economically distinct from the South.
- 15:49Speaker 3: And then the North had and the people who were
- 15:51Speaker 3: a part of the system, the white people who were
- 15:54Speaker 3: part of the slavery in the South, they took that
- 15:57Speaker 3: shit to their grave. They never said that they were wrong.
- 16:01Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure some of them did, but there
- 16:03Speaker 3: were quite a few who never would admit that. You know,
- 16:07Speaker 3: and I think we can all agree that slavery is wrong,
- 16:10Speaker 3: So I would say that they were wrong. But that
- 16:13Speaker 3: has become over time going through the segregation process, which
- 16:18Speaker 3: was again the people who involved in wanting to get
- 16:22Speaker 3: rid of these laws, they had to appeal to a
- 16:24Speaker 3: third part, a third party that was culturally distinct from
- 16:28Speaker 3: the people who were putting these laws in place and
- 16:30Speaker 3: enforcing these laws. So again they had to appeal to
- 16:33Speaker 3: a third party. And then we get to the modern
- 16:35Speaker 3: area where it's getting a lot different, shall we say,
- 16:39Speaker 3: And this is where where feminism, I think comes in.
- 16:42Speaker 3: So black people had done all of the work with
- 16:46Speaker 3: white people who were or had the ethical concerns that
- 16:51Speaker 3: were in line with opposing slavery, or the political concerns
- 16:54Speaker 3: or whatever. So they did this work, and then the
- 16:58Speaker 3: feminist movement comes up, come around, co opts this entire
- 17:02Speaker 3: history and says women are as oppressed or more oppressed
- 17:07Speaker 3: than black people were. And then it because of this
- 17:12Speaker 3: evolution of generations upon generations upon generations of challenging this
- 17:17Speaker 3: form of tribalism, now we're in a situation where I
- 17:21Speaker 3: think the pendulum has swung too far the other way.
- 17:24Speaker 3: And feminists can point to that and say, hey, it
- 17:26Speaker 3: makes total sense that an oppressed people can walk up
- 17:30Speaker 3: to their oppressors and simply demand stuff and get it.
- 17:34Speaker 3: It doesn't. It never did. But now that the situation
- 17:38Speaker 3: is much more swung in the other direction, that's what
- 17:41Speaker 3: feminists can do, and they can use that. They can
- 17:44Speaker 3: use that to buttress their claims of oppression, because the
- 17:48Speaker 3: most devastating argument against feminism's claim of oppression is your
- 17:56Speaker 3: solution to it is simply to ask your oppressors stuff.
- 18:01Speaker 3: And they'll say, all, that's what black people did with
- 18:03Speaker 3: white people. No, that's not what they did. They had
- 18:06Speaker 3: to ask completely culturally, ethic ethically, religiously, economically, and militarily
- 18:12Speaker 3: distinct groups of people third parties to come in and
- 18:17Speaker 3: make these changes, okay, And so they completely ignore the
- 18:22Speaker 3: whole history of it. They look at the so they
- 18:24Speaker 3: came in precisely when they could frame everything in terms
- 18:29Speaker 3: that benefited them. That's what I'm trying to get at.
- 18:31Speaker 1: Mm hm.
- 18:32Speaker 3: At the end of the process, they came in, at
- 18:35Speaker 3: the end of the process, they said, well, look, look,
- 18:38Speaker 3: look at look at black people. They just walk up
- 18:40Speaker 3: to their oppressor and ask them for whatever they want,
- 18:43Speaker 3: just like us, just like women. And it's like, well,
- 18:46Speaker 3: but you're do did you see the whole history of
- 18:49Speaker 3: sacrifice in war and appealing to white people who felt
- 18:53Speaker 3: it was a violation of the human spirit to have
- 18:57Speaker 3: you miss in all that, You're just gonna ignore it,
- 19:00Speaker 3: and it is to buttress or hide or obscurificate the
- 19:04Speaker 3: truth that they're dynamic. The dynamic between men and women
- 19:08Speaker 3: that feminist exploit look nothing at all like the history
- 19:14Speaker 3: of slavery, civil rights segregation, doesn't look at anything like it. Okay,
- 19:20Speaker 3: I'll get on.
- 19:21Speaker 2: But they're making the same basic case and this is well, honestly,
- 19:25Speaker 2: I also want to point out that at this point
- 19:28Speaker 2: in time, even though this was going on with the
- 19:30Speaker 2: civil rights movement, if you take a step away from
- 19:35Speaker 2: what the civil rights movement was about and you just
- 19:37Speaker 2: look at the condition of the black population, particularly the
- 19:41Speaker 2: black family. They were doing very very well, and in fact,
- 19:46Speaker 2: civil Rights did a lot of harm because that's when
- 19:48Speaker 2: Lyndon Johnson came in and start.
- 19:51Speaker 1: I have the whole thing up. I have a tab
- 19:53Speaker 1: on it in case we need to look at it.
- 19:56Speaker 2: I got a super child though from anonymous, Thank you
- 19:59Speaker 2: and give USh what is that? Five dollars? No ten dollars?
- 20:03Speaker 2: Thank you anonymous and says Andrew Wilson destroyed Natty the
- 20:06Speaker 2: Feminist on Twitter space and just proved my suspicion since
- 20:10Speaker 2: first seeing her on your podcast. She's a lunatic feminist
- 20:14Speaker 2: and a child. How was Brian able to be so
- 20:18Speaker 2: generous when she was on your show? She doesn't deserve
- 20:20Speaker 2: anyone's patience. I found it weird that her husband was
- 20:24Speaker 2: on fireside Chat like she needed an emotional support animal. Well,
- 20:28Speaker 2: I'm not gonna throw any more shade than you already
- 20:30Speaker 2: did at that, But all I will say is, you know,
- 20:34Speaker 2: Natty was really good when we were when we got along,
- 20:37Speaker 2: she was a great person. I don't know what happened.
- 20:41Speaker 2: I have no explanation other than I think that COVID
- 20:45Speaker 2: and the lockdowns and everything, it just did a real
- 20:47Speaker 2: number on her and she started going down rabbit holes
- 20:51Speaker 2: and maybe she's lost herself a little bit.
- 20:53Speaker 1: I don't know so, but thank you for the super
- 20:56Speaker 1: child regardless.
- 20:57Speaker 3: Hmm. Yeah, I'm not going to say anything to that.
- 20:59Speaker 3: I don't know what's Yeah, I don't why. The reason
- 21:05Speaker 3: why we did that was because we have she's done
- 21:10Speaker 3: good things for the men's rights movement. She has spoken
- 21:13Speaker 3: to her in the past, in the past, I'm not saying, right. Yeah, honestly,
- 21:20Speaker 3: I just wanted to see if Brian could unearth what
- 21:22Speaker 3: it was, because I you know, Brian's a very uh
- 21:27Speaker 3: he can be very a gentle and diplomatic, shall we say,
- 21:30Speaker 3: And I figured that was the best way to try.
- 21:32Speaker 3: And a lot of people, I think we got flak
- 21:34Speaker 3: for being not so intrusive or not so like nailing
- 21:39Speaker 3: her on stuff.
- 21:40Speaker 1: But I'm I didn't know.
- 21:42Speaker 2: I mean I would have, but I didn't. I didn't
- 21:43Speaker 2: really have any There wasn't much there though.
- 21:46Speaker 1: It was all like gather. It was all.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Feelings and like, you know, suspicions and then like drama.
- 21:53Speaker 2: I think that and I you know, if look again,
- 21:56Speaker 2: I have nothing against Natty, but I think that she
- 21:59Speaker 2: had a goal of having she wanted me to condemn
- 22:03Speaker 2: like Peter Wright and these other people on Twitter, and
- 22:05Speaker 2: it's like, I'm not doing that. Like I you know,
- 22:07Speaker 2: like people have their opinions, they're allowed to have them.
- 22:10Speaker 1: I have my own opinion.
- 22:11Speaker 2: I'm very opinionated, right, but I don't I don't say, well,
- 22:14Speaker 2: you are excommunicated from the Men's movement because you don't
- 22:16Speaker 2: agree with me. I'm just like, well, whatever I mean,
- 22:19Speaker 2: I think I'm right. You go ahead and follow your
- 22:21Speaker 2: truth ten men or whoever. We'll see how that goes.
- 22:24Speaker 2: That's all I say. I think that ultimately, you know,
- 22:28Speaker 2: it's okay that we don't agree. So anyway, so yeah,
- 22:33Speaker 2: I hope that she, you know, figures it out. I
- 22:36Speaker 2: don't know, and maybe I maybe there is something there,
- 22:38Speaker 2: but I I can't see it now. So I guess
- 22:41Speaker 2: that's that's all. And maybe I'll learn at some point
- 22:43Speaker 2: in the future. But anyway, Yeah, so let's listen to
- 22:47Speaker 2: more of this.
- 22:48Speaker 3: You want to be able to come and go through you.
- 22:50Speaker 3: We don't want to be intimidated by signed to say
- 22:52Speaker 3: men's to.
- 22:53Speaker 9: Say, I have no intentions of taking your sign down
- 22:56Speaker 9: or changing your.
- 22:57Speaker 6: Sign if you can get a court order to take
- 22:58Speaker 6: it down.
- 22:59Speaker 2: Fine, Yeah, this guy looks you know who this guy
- 23:01Speaker 2: looks like. I just gotta say, you know who this
- 23:03Speaker 2: guy looks like. He looks like Paul Simon.
- 23:08Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
- 23:09Speaker 2: You know what I'm doing, you know, soft in the
- 23:10Speaker 2: middle now, so you know you can be my bodyguard.
- 23:14Speaker 2: That's that's what he looks like.
- 23:15Speaker 1: Man, bam bam. You know the song?
- 23:19Speaker 3: Yes they do.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, you can call me l y, call me ow.
- 23:26Speaker 1: I have nothing against him. I'm just saying he looks
- 23:28Speaker 1: like Paul.
- 23:29Speaker 3: I just want to point something out right in the middle,
- 23:31Speaker 3: right right off the bat, what are they doing there?
- 23:35Speaker 3: They are shutting down a men's space. M right off
- 23:39Speaker 3: the flipping back. And I just, like, a couple of
- 23:42Speaker 3: weeks ago, I just got through arguing with a feminine.
- 23:45Speaker 2: They're demanding access to a men's space, which ultimately kills
- 23:49Speaker 2: the men's space.
- 23:50Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 23:50Speaker 3: Yeah, but I was arguing with the feminists. He said, well,
- 23:52Speaker 3: why don't men make their own spaces if they're lonely, hurt, adurp.
- 23:55Speaker 3: And I'm like, and I sent them all of the ship,
- 23:59Speaker 3: like just starting from all of the stuff that cafe
- 24:02Speaker 3: had to deal with, all of the protests, all the
- 24:04Speaker 3: spitting in people's face and calling them a misogynist for
- 24:08Speaker 3: wanting to talk about men's issues, to all of the
- 24:11Speaker 3: people that I've known who've tried to have services for men,
- 24:14Speaker 3: services for men dealing with domestic violence, sexual assault, who
- 24:17Speaker 3: have been either attacked literally attacked like physically attacked by feminists,
- 24:22Speaker 3: or attacked in the media and forced to shut down
- 24:25Speaker 3: bomb threats. I mean, this is continual, and it's absolutely
- 24:30Speaker 3: the height of arrogance to say, well, why don't men
- 24:33Speaker 3: make their spaces when feminists continually shut them down, and
- 24:40Speaker 3: then they blame men for it. The result is that
- 24:43Speaker 3: men don't have their own spaces, that men are lonely,
- 24:46Speaker 3: they can't establish friendships just with men without the oversight
- 24:51Speaker 3: of women, and feminists blame them for that. It's like,
- 24:56Speaker 3: why don't you have men's spaces? As soon as the
- 24:58Speaker 3: men tries to make one, feminist comes down and starts
- 25:01Speaker 3: kicking it down. And here we see right off the
- 25:04Speaker 3: bat the first fifty five seconds of this video, what
- 25:10Speaker 3: are feminists doing?
- 25:12Speaker 2: And remember this is a pro feminist video. So the
- 25:15Speaker 2: person who shared this clip doesn't see anything wrong with.
- 25:18Speaker 1: This, Nope, So I would have told him to uh,
- 25:23Speaker 1: fat woman.
- 25:25Speaker 10: All right, your policy, I'm say, you're getting facilities?
- 25:30Speaker 11: Is that correct sor you women are that hard up
- 25:31Speaker 11: for a glass of beer.
- 25:33Speaker 1: I'll be glad to hear at the barron.
- 25:36Speaker 12: You know, sometimes the events of decades can crystallize in
- 25:41Speaker 12: a moment, and it seems as if overnight there's this
- 25:44Speaker 12: historic change. When you look back at it, you say, oh, well,
- 25:47Speaker 12: this was building up and building up. And for years
- 25:49Speaker 12: there was this person and this person in this group
- 25:51Speaker 12: and they were networking in this, in this, and then
- 25:53Speaker 12: there was a shift. The women's movement had many orders.
- 26:01Speaker 12: In part, it owes its renewed birth to the civil
- 26:05Speaker 12: rights movement.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Oh that is ballsy, isn't it. She's got Yeah, she's
- 26:12Speaker 1: got some chesticles on her.
- 26:14Speaker 3: Oh that is ball Then of course, the renewed thing
- 26:18Speaker 3: is that they had a new narrative to bash men
- 26:21Speaker 3: over the head with, and and they co opted it.
- 26:26Speaker 3: And I think a lot of all of the crap,
- 26:30Speaker 3: you know, I'll defer to Brian to sign off on this.
- 26:33Speaker 3: I think a lot of the crap that the black
- 26:35Speaker 3: community is dealing with is because women like this said,
- 26:39Speaker 3: ooh that's useful, that's relevant to my interests, and they
- 26:44Speaker 3: distorted the politics around it.
- 26:47Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think that I think that the Civil
- 26:49Speaker 2: this is my thing. Okay, I'm not going to go
- 26:51Speaker 2: into too much, but if you guys want to talk
- 26:52Speaker 2: to me about it another time. I know it's not related,
- 26:55Speaker 2: but I think the Civil Rights Act it was unprincipled
- 27:00Speaker 2: in its design, and I think that feminists used that
- 27:03Speaker 2: to its advantage and it did it honestly. After that,
- 27:06Speaker 2: after that and the and the Great Society Lyndon B.
- 27:10Speaker 2: Johnson putting all that together, feminists had a tremendous amount
- 27:13Speaker 2: of influence on that as well. Because remember you know
- 27:16Speaker 2: that they they there was that uh you know that
- 27:20Speaker 2: clause or that that Yeah, there was like a clause
- 27:23Speaker 2: you could say, in the social security system that said
- 27:26Speaker 2: that if a woman wanted to get benefits, then there
- 27:28Speaker 2: could not be a man in the home. And so
- 27:31Speaker 2: that was the The blacks were cooked from the beginning
- 27:34Speaker 2: because the feminists came in and a lot of the
- 27:37Speaker 2: feminists were black themselves, so we're not just talking about
- 27:39Speaker 2: white women, and they basically like pushed this stuff in
- 27:43Speaker 2: and so like now, like you know, the black populations
- 27:47Speaker 2: in bad shape and a lot of it has to
- 27:49Speaker 2: do with the feminists, say, the feminist policies pushed under
- 27:55Speaker 2: the guise of civil rights for blacks. That's all I'll
- 27:59Speaker 2: say about that, Okay. Richard Bierre gave us a superchow
- 28:01Speaker 2: a big one too, said for five bucks, there are
- 28:04Speaker 2: still laws in place that contributed to the Civil War.
- 28:07Speaker 3: I wouldn't say it's big.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Well, I'm saying that like I don't have enough space
- 28:13Speaker 2: on the screen to show at all.
- 28:14Speaker 3: Oh oh comment comments.
- 28:20Speaker 2: It's a big it's a large block of text. So anyway, yeah,
- 28:24Speaker 2: thank you. Richard five bucks says there are still laws
- 28:26Speaker 2: in place that contributed to the Civil War kicking off,
- 28:29Speaker 2: such as the Navigation Acts that are still in place today,
- 28:31Speaker 2: which require that good ship between the US ports can
- 28:34Speaker 2: be transported only on ships built in the United States,
- 28:37Speaker 2: registered in the United States, and crewed only by US
- 28:40Speaker 2: citizens only. This is one of the laws with a
- 28:44Speaker 2: supposed good intention that is another paving stone on the
- 28:48Speaker 2: road to hell. Because of this law, oil couldn't be
- 28:51Speaker 2: shipped from Texas to Puerto Rico due to their being
- 28:54Speaker 2: no oil tankers meeting the requirements of being US built,
- 28:58Speaker 2: registration and crude.
- 29:01Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 29:01Speaker 2: That was relatively recently that and the government had eliminated
- 29:05Speaker 2: the tax on telephone lines that was put in place
- 29:08Speaker 2: to pay for the Spanish American War.
- 29:11Speaker 3: Okay, so and yeah, that's a part of it. Like,
- 29:14Speaker 3: there's this whole complex network of factors that led to
- 29:19Speaker 3: the end of slavery, the end you know, the civil
- 29:22Speaker 3: rights era, the end of segregation and all of that,
- 29:26Speaker 3: and at no point in time was it ended because
- 29:31Speaker 3: people who were oppressed en mass asked their oppressors to
- 29:35Speaker 3: stop oppressing them or to give them stuff. That's my point.
- 29:39Speaker 3: It's all a very complex It involved a lot of sacrifice,
- 29:42Speaker 3: a lot of death on both sides, not just with
- 29:47Speaker 3: black people, but white people who wanted to end segregation
- 29:50Speaker 3: and wanted to end slavery also got in for a
- 29:54Speaker 3: lot of censure, a lot of violence, a lot of murder. So,
- 29:57Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's a very very complex and difficult
- 30:02Speaker 3: history with a lot of competing interests that led to
- 30:05Speaker 3: this result. And to simplify all that and say, oh,
- 30:12Speaker 3: but it totally makes sense that if you're oppressed you
- 30:16Speaker 3: can just ask your oppressor to do stuff for you.
- 30:19Speaker 3: That is such a cynical, callous whitewashing of history, that
- 30:29Speaker 3: feminists are engaging it, and they use it to justify
- 30:33Speaker 3: the obvious fact that the dynamic between men and women
- 30:37Speaker 3: looks nothing like oppression, just doesn't.
- 30:42Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's play some more.
- 30:46Speaker 2: Yeah, this is so, this is this whole series is
- 30:48Speaker 2: basically or this show. The theme of the show is
- 30:53Speaker 2: same as it ever was, same as it ever was.
- 30:57Speaker 2: That's basically what you're gonna see is like you're gonna
- 30:59Speaker 2: see you're like, oh, they do that today, Yeah, because
- 31:02Speaker 2: it hasn't really changed.
- 31:03Speaker 1: All right, So let's place.
- 31:05Speaker 12: Part it owes its renewed birth to the civil rights movement,
- 31:10Speaker 12: because there was then a lesson for the women of
- 31:13Speaker 12: America of how blacks at that time were taking their
- 31:17Speaker 12: life into their own hands.
- 31:18Speaker 13: My bacon?
- 31:19Speaker 1: Ready? Yet?
- 31:21Speaker 3: You mean you could appropriate the history of suffering of
- 31:26Speaker 3: another group of people and pretend that you experienced the
- 31:30Speaker 3: same thing because apparently your husband ask you for baking,
- 31:35Speaker 3: so for a bait for bacon?
- 31:37Speaker 8: Do you know what?
- 31:39Speaker 3: Here's the problem? Whose money is earning the bacon? Like? Literally,
- 31:47Speaker 3: you understand that slaves create the material wealth for their
- 31:52Speaker 3: masters and mistresses, Like this is this is not slavery
- 31:57Speaker 3: and this and this is what's so freaking freaking hell.
- 32:00Speaker 3: How did they get away with it? How did this
- 32:02Speaker 3: woman go up and say, yeah, this is slavery. It
- 32:04Speaker 3: is not slavery. It is not slavery. It is a
- 32:10Speaker 3: symbiotic relationship in which you get a roof over your
- 32:15Speaker 3: head and food and the freedom to raise your children
- 32:20Speaker 3: in a house that, no doubt the labors who run
- 32:23Speaker 3: it has been reduced to a part time job from
- 32:26Speaker 3: a full time job seven days a week, you know,
- 32:29Speaker 3: and you call that slavery literally literally, this woman, as
- 32:35Speaker 3: a homemaker in this time period, went from a job
- 32:40Speaker 3: that was twelve hours a day, six days a week
- 32:43Speaker 3: to a job that was three hours a day, five
- 32:45Speaker 3: days a week because that man purchased mechanical labor to
- 32:51Speaker 3: serve her. And she's calling that slavery. His job didn't
- 32:56Speaker 3: decrease in the length of time he has to go
- 32:59Speaker 3: to work, didn't decrease in that amount of time. Can
- 33:02Speaker 3: you believe the audacity? And then they say, oh, yeah,
- 33:06Speaker 3: this is equivalent to the history is slavery with black
- 33:09Speaker 3: people and white people in the No, it isn't. In
- 33:13Speaker 3: no freaking universe. You should have been laughed off the set.
- 33:17Speaker 3: Why were these women allowed to make this comparison? Why
- 33:21Speaker 3: were they allowed to assert this? Why were they allowed
- 33:25Speaker 3: to appropriate the suffering of actually oppressed people in the
- 33:28Speaker 3: past and compare this to that. And you know why
- 33:35Speaker 3: they were allowed because people listened. You know why they
- 33:40Speaker 3: listened because people are do not want to see women suffer.
- 33:45Speaker 3: So women can go out and claim suffering and people
- 33:49Speaker 3: will be like, oh, I didn't know. Their brains turn off,
- 33:53Speaker 3: their rational faculties turn off, and everybody tunes themselves to saying, oh,
- 33:59Speaker 3: we got to remove that's suffering. Wait, like, literally, she
- 34:04Speaker 3: has a three hour a day job. He still has,
- 34:07Speaker 3: He still is working eight to ten hours a day
- 34:10Speaker 3: in order to pay for her to have additional leisure time.
- 34:13Speaker 3: In no universe did slaves. Did the slave mistress or
- 34:18Speaker 3: master work eight to ten hours a day so the
- 34:22Speaker 3: slave could have five more hours of or nine more
- 34:26Speaker 3: hours of leisure time? Like what the like I said
- 34:31Speaker 3: before men made it so that women had more leisure
- 34:37Speaker 3: time than any group of people in human history in
- 34:41Speaker 3: the fifties and women have never forgiven them for it.
- 34:45Speaker 3: Mm hmm, okay, sorry.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Pro Oh no, it's okay.
- 34:48Speaker 2: So this is a clip from like a show, So
- 34:51Speaker 2: this is completely fictional. Yet another throwback thing, another example
- 34:56Speaker 2: of same as it ever was. Because feminist to day,
- 35:00Speaker 2: when they want to make arguments, they reference fiction. That's
- 35:04Speaker 2: why they're always making references to pop culture stuff because
- 35:08Speaker 2: it's not real and it's actually created by people who
- 35:11Speaker 2: agree with them, like on these topics.
- 35:14Speaker 1: So it's a really easy cherry pick. It's almost the same.
- 35:17Speaker 2: It's exactly the same thing that happens in academia where
- 35:20Speaker 2: feminists all reference each other and they use each other
- 35:23Speaker 2: as proof of the things that they claim because look,
- 35:26Speaker 2: it's consensus. All of my gender studies professors agree. It's
- 35:30Speaker 2: the same. It's like it's consensus all of the Hollywood
- 35:34Speaker 2: people are making the content that agrees with my positions
- 35:37Speaker 2: because those people also agree with my positions. So we're
- 35:40Speaker 2: seeing something that is like literally doesn't happen, and they're
- 35:44Speaker 2: using it as evidence of something.
- 35:46Speaker 1: So let's let's listen to it. Let's watch the clip.
- 35:48Speaker 1: There's a couple of them because they love using this stuff.
- 35:54Speaker 1: It's more toast pin.
- 35:57Speaker 6: Hey Pye, why don't you get cracking on us all
- 36:00Speaker 6: house cleaning campaign around here?
- 36:02Speaker 1: Get the floors wax, get the windows washed.
- 36:05Speaker 6: Get this place looking as if civilized people are in residence.
- 36:11Speaker 3: So this guy's basically a bit of.
- 36:13Speaker 1: An asshole, but they're making him into one. But I mean,
- 36:19Speaker 1: go ahead, let's be frank.
- 36:21Speaker 3: I mean, who purchased the wonderful kitchen that she uses
- 36:24Speaker 3: that has reduced her labor from twelve hours a day,
- 36:29Speaker 3: six days a week to three hours a day, five
- 36:31Speaker 3: days a week. You know who purchases the utilities, the
- 36:36Speaker 3: lighting that used to be something that women had to do.
- 36:39Speaker 3: Central heating. Women actually had to cut wood or at
- 36:43Speaker 3: least gather kindling. Right, laundry, women had to beat shirts
- 36:48Speaker 3: out on rocks and streams, or they had to use
- 36:52Speaker 3: the ringer when they had that, Like all of these things,
- 36:55Speaker 3: massive labor reductions, right, and that was paid for by him.
- 37:02Speaker 3: This is not slavery. This is resentment. This is creating resentment.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Yes, the purpose of it. It's the purpose of it.
- 37:12Speaker 2: Okay, I got a super child from Richard Pierre for
- 37:15Speaker 2: five bucks. Thank you, Richard, And says there's a bulldozer
- 37:17Speaker 2: that sits on a property outside of Philadelphia, Mississippi that
- 37:21Speaker 2: has been ordered by a judge to never be allowed
- 37:23Speaker 2: to be moved from that spot because it was used
- 37:26Speaker 2: in the covering up of the murder of civil rights workers.
- 37:30Speaker 2: The movie Mississippi Burning was made about that incident, Thank you, Richard.
- 37:35Speaker 1: How many of those were men? Many? All right? Probably most?
- 37:40Speaker 3: Yes, Yes. The funny thing is that when you talk
- 37:44Speaker 3: about lynching victims, there was a significant portion of them
- 37:49Speaker 3: who were immigrants like Italians and Irish and other things,
- 37:53Speaker 3: but almost all of them, like ninety nine point nine
- 37:56Speaker 3: percent of them were men.
- 37:58Speaker 1: Mm hm, oh yeah, for sure, for sure. That's what
- 38:01Speaker 1: I'm saying.
- 38:01Speaker 2: Like you know, when you when you speak in terms
- 38:04Speaker 2: of like race or whatever, it just it just serves
- 38:07Speaker 2: to conceal, like the reality is that it's almost all men,
- 38:11Speaker 2: like in almost every case, and so like it's hard.
- 38:14Speaker 1: It makes it harder for me to.
- 38:16Speaker 2: Talk about men's issues because people are distracted by other stuff.
- 38:20Speaker 2: You know, Oh they were gay, they were black or whatever.
- 38:22Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, but they were men. Like how many
- 38:25Speaker 2: lesbians got lynched, you know, not many, so I think.
- 38:30Speaker 2: I mean even in the Middle East, like the people
- 38:32Speaker 2: who usually you know, when they talk about what happens
- 38:34Speaker 2: to like, you know, gay people the Middle East, it's
- 38:37Speaker 2: the men that they that they kill, I mean, not
- 38:40Speaker 2: the women. They basically just tell the women, you know,
- 38:43Speaker 2: stop doing that, go get married to a dude and
- 38:45Speaker 2: have kids, Like, stop stop pretending to be lesbian. I mean,
- 38:50Speaker 2: sure that's offensive, but you're not. They're not throwing you
- 38:52Speaker 2: off a rooftop.
- 38:54Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like the whole thing with the Taliban, Like
- 38:56Speaker 3: somebody is getting on me in the Taliban. Well, first
- 38:58Speaker 3: of all, the Taliban is a huge outlier in terms
- 39:01Speaker 3: of societies because, honestly, I think it's more what a
- 39:06Speaker 3: culture becomes when it turns itself into something that is
- 39:10Speaker 3: purely militaristic in order to resist invaders. So what happens
- 39:14Speaker 3: is women end up being stuck in logistics and child
- 39:18Speaker 3: rearing and men are cannon fodder. Like literally, if Afghan
- 39:22Speaker 3: women became men tomorrow, three to five times more of
- 39:27Speaker 3: them would be dead. Okay, how is that a better situation? Yeah,
- 39:32Speaker 3: it sucks. You know why it sucks because peaceful, prosperous,
- 39:37Speaker 3: productive communities are able to afford more freedom for their women.
- 39:42Speaker 3: When they cease to be peaceful, productive, and prosperous, then
- 39:47Speaker 3: women have to be restricted for the simple fact as
- 39:50Speaker 3: you're trying to keep them alive. Right, if you want
- 39:54Speaker 3: this place to improve, stop invading it, stop destroying it,
- 40:00Speaker 3: let it, let it evolve on its own. And and
- 40:05Speaker 3: it's like, I am not going to sit here and
- 40:07Speaker 3: say that a situation if you put women in the
- 40:11Speaker 3: situation of men in Afghanistan, they would die five three
- 40:14Speaker 3: to five torns more often. Is an improvement? Is that
- 40:17Speaker 3: an improvement? Like, honestly, if you people who are looking
- 40:21Speaker 3: at the situation of women in the in Afghanistan, you
- 40:24Speaker 3: tell me that that's an improvement. Dying three to five
- 40:28Speaker 3: times more? Is that an improvement? Mm hmm, No, it
- 40:33Speaker 3: isn't by no metric.
- 40:34Speaker 8: Is it.
- 40:37Speaker 14: All right?
- 40:37Speaker 3: Let's keep going.
- 40:41Speaker 6: Sorry, I read it.
- 40:42Speaker 1: Sweetie, have a little more.
- 40:44Speaker 11: Damn some pumperserse.
- 40:54Speaker 3: That's it, that's all would happened.
- 40:56Speaker 1: And to see that she's upset and and that's it.
- 41:00Speaker 2: It's funny because again they're appealing to the thing that
- 41:02Speaker 2: they claim doesn't exist. They show her reaction to his comment,
- 41:07Speaker 2: which I didn't really quite get, but I guess it
- 41:09Speaker 2: was hurtful and that we're supposed to resonate with her feelings,
- 41:14Speaker 2: but we don't care about women. But like, why would
- 41:18Speaker 2: you use that tool then if it doesn't work.
- 41:22Speaker 14: At last year, women, God, both here, but we just.
- 41:28Speaker 15: Sat on dusty shelves because we never helped ourselves.
- 41:38Speaker 1: Men. Wait, wait, wait, you gotta listen to the rest.
- 41:40Speaker 1: This is cringe, man, this is awful. Okay, Harry, men.
- 41:45Speaker 14: Can still be breathe But what is she a servant
- 41:51Speaker 14: with no pay for life just so he can stay alive?
- 42:00Speaker 3: Status symbol with a ring.
- 42:03Speaker 14: Tell me what that's break a go ride to bear
- 42:09Speaker 14: his kids while race?
- 42:14Speaker 1: Really? Yeah, men go and like bang other chicks.
- 42:18Speaker 3: Wait, wait, go back there a bit where Okay, look
- 42:21Speaker 3: look at actually look at the video that they're using.
- 42:26Speaker 1: Video.
- 42:26Speaker 3: No, not just that, watch it, watch it carefully, all right,
- 42:32Speaker 3: he's resisting.
- 42:35Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I guess so, I mean they don't care
- 42:37Speaker 1: about that, Allison.
- 42:38Speaker 3: This is this is this is actual sexual assault. Okay, So, uh,
- 42:43Speaker 3: you are oppressed by the fact that your husbands get
- 42:45Speaker 3: sexually assaulted? Yeah, Like, couldn't you have used video in
- 42:51Speaker 3: which he was a consenting partner? Like why would you
- 42:54Speaker 3: use this? And then be like, oh my god, look
- 42:56Speaker 3: at him, like are you freaking kidding me? There has
- 42:59Speaker 3: to if we let's do a gender swap here, Okay,
- 43:05Speaker 3: a husband's talking or men are talking about how women
- 43:08Speaker 3: just they're disloyal and they can't be faithful. And they
- 43:11Speaker 3: show a video of a woman being sexually assaulted. Look
- 43:14Speaker 3: at that, Look at her. She can't be faithful. Yeah,
- 43:17Speaker 3: she's being forced. This is exactly the same attitude. Like
- 43:22Speaker 3: and the funny thing is is they could have chosen
- 43:26Speaker 3: something that showed a consensual situation, but they didn't. Why
- 43:30Speaker 3: is that why the oversight? Like this is literally a.
- 43:34Speaker 1: Guy pray Harris. Yeah, maybe they think it's funny.
- 43:39Speaker 3: But the but literally they're showing a guy being preyed
- 43:42Speaker 3: on and saying this is his fault and it's evidence
- 43:45Speaker 3: of all men, all men.
- 43:47Speaker 2: What I would get I would gander would uh. I
- 43:52Speaker 2: would bet that this clip this is from an older film,
- 43:56Speaker 2: maybe even a silent film, like a very early film.
- 43:58Speaker 2: I bet the woman on this is an empowered, independent
- 44:02Speaker 2: flapper girl character. Like I bet that that's a feminist
- 44:05Speaker 2: woman that's being sexually aggressive, because that was like a
- 44:08Speaker 2: big thing in the twenties and thirties was that women
- 44:11Speaker 2: were you know, like there was like a different there
- 44:13Speaker 2: was another kind of I don't know, like well, it
- 44:17Speaker 2: was like a feminist movement that was going on, but
- 44:19Speaker 2: it was more like a you know, like a.
- 44:21Speaker 1: Sexual revolution thing that was happening around that time.
- 44:24Speaker 2: So I bet I bet that because that was the
- 44:25Speaker 2: Flapper Girls was like a very controversial thing in the
- 44:29Speaker 2: in the twenties and thirties.
- 44:31Speaker 1: But anyway, let's let's hear the rest of the song.
- 44:33Speaker 15: No, they stop, what the fuck?
- 44:51Speaker 1: Men have made a mess of things. They should be
- 44:54Speaker 1: stopped by now.
- 44:55Speaker 3: Meanwhile showing women using all of the labored saving devices
- 44:59Speaker 3: invented by men that took their job from twelve hours
- 45:02Speaker 3: a day to three. Oh boy, men made a mess
- 45:06Speaker 3: of things, all right, They certainly did. They unleashed the
- 45:10Speaker 3: principle of idle hands or a devil's playground.
- 45:14Speaker 8: Apparently.
- 45:16Speaker 1: How did people fall for this back then?
- 45:19Speaker 3: I don't think they did, Like.
- 45:21Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's still it seemed to have gone through.
- 45:24Speaker 3: Like, oh yeah, it eventually did. But my father went
- 45:27Speaker 3: he was tangentially part of the feminist movement because my
- 45:30Speaker 3: mother was a big feminist in the seventies. He said
- 45:36Speaker 3: that when they were doing this stuff, most people didn't
- 45:40Speaker 3: believe that men oppressed women. They'd laugh at it. They
- 45:44Speaker 3: didn't believe it like it was like, uh no, but
- 45:49Speaker 3: that generation died and probably the reason why they didn't
- 45:53Speaker 3: believe it because because they knew who was dying in war,
- 45:59Speaker 3: they knew they act actually had met and lost male
- 46:02Speaker 3: loved ones and setting up the culture.
- 46:07Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny too because like you know, oh, well
- 46:09Speaker 2: what year, what deck are we talking about? The sixties
- 46:12Speaker 2: because we have Vietnam. Yeah, like we like Vietnam was
- 46:17Speaker 2: going on. I don't know about the seventies, there were
- 46:19Speaker 2: definitely war yeah, and.
- 46:23Speaker 3: Yeah, the Cold War there was when it's a lot
- 46:26Speaker 3: more salient that men might have to give their lives,
- 46:29Speaker 3: make the ultimate sacrifice to keep society going, to protect society,
- 46:35Speaker 3: I guess the idea that women are oppressed isn't as
- 46:39Speaker 3: strong a sel mm hmm, even though we still have
- 46:44Speaker 3: a similar situation today, Like it's it's still an issue,
- 46:49Speaker 3: like men will be put in the front lines if
- 46:53Speaker 3: and when politicians deem it necessary to protect society, and
- 46:57Speaker 3: there will be a whole bunch of people shaming men
- 47:00Speaker 3: into that role, into sacrificing everything that they are for
- 47:04Speaker 3: somebody else mhm. And and you know, and that will happen,
- 47:10Speaker 3: Like the underlying condition has not changed. Look at what
- 47:14Speaker 3: happened in the Ukraine. Men are legally unable to leave
- 47:18Speaker 3: the country if they're of military age. Yeah, and it's
- 47:23Speaker 3: it is, like, it's Ridiculous's absolutely in my opinion, it's
- 47:27Speaker 3: absolutely ridiculous to be in a society that can count
- 47:32Speaker 3: its survival and protection and also its infrastructure and many
- 47:36Speaker 3: of its larger building projects in the lives of men,
- 47:39Speaker 3: and then assert that that society oppresses women. You have
- 47:43Speaker 3: to literally not care about the lives of men to
- 47:45Speaker 3: assert that.
- 47:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 47:46Speaker 1: And it's funny how in the song when they talk
- 47:49Speaker 1: about how men are free and they show a guy working.
- 47:51Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
- 47:54Speaker 8: What he's doing.
- 47:55Speaker 2: Yeah, like when he's just on the phone with friends, Like,
- 47:58Speaker 2: what are you talking about?
- 48:01Speaker 3: I thought that's wage slavery.
- 48:03Speaker 2: Well, it is when women have to do it, but
- 48:07Speaker 2: it's also liberty.
- 48:09Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't. I can't with all this.
- 48:15Speaker 5: In nineteen seventy, America was still very much a man's world.
- 48:19Speaker 5: More women than ever were joining the workforce, but at
- 48:22Speaker 5: the same time they were still expected to be the
- 48:25Speaker 5: traditional housewives and mothers of a generation earlier. In some states,
- 48:30Speaker 5: women could not obtain credit cards or mortgages without a
- 48:33Speaker 5: male co signer, and nationally they were paid an average
- 48:36Speaker 5: to pay for it.
- 48:39Speaker 1: Men were responsible for women's credit, so yeah.
- 48:42Speaker 3: Like literally men were legally expected to pay for the
- 48:46Speaker 3: credit like men were legally expected to pay. That is
- 48:50Speaker 3: in law for women's debts, right, So if she took
- 48:56Speaker 3: on a debt, they wanted to know the man who
- 49:00Speaker 3: was legally responsible for her debt could pay it.
- 49:04Speaker 2: Also, same as it ever was the same argument as
- 49:07Speaker 2: ever was, Hey, they're going to mention the pay gap,
- 49:10Speaker 2: and it's a bigger gap in this video, because I
- 49:12Speaker 2: guess back then it was worse. But the other thing
- 49:14Speaker 2: that's worth mentioning is that when women enter the workforce,
- 49:18Speaker 2: they literally drove up the cost of living for everybody,
- 49:22Speaker 2: so they made things worse in a way.
- 49:24Speaker 5: Okay, so fifty nine cents.
- 49:26Speaker 3: What I'm just looking at the Vietnam War, just checking
- 49:30Speaker 3: on the Oh yeah, so falls igne April thirtieth to
- 49:37Speaker 3: nineteen seventy five, so I think it was still on
- 49:43Speaker 3: in the seventies, so men were still being expected to
- 49:46Speaker 3: go and die in foreign wars to protect American interests.
- 49:51Speaker 3: And don't give me this bullshit that women don't vote
- 49:54Speaker 3: in wars. They were the majority voters at the time.
- 49:57Speaker 3: They became the majority voters in the sixties. So if
- 50:02Speaker 3: we went to Vietnam, if we went to war in Vietnam,
- 50:06Speaker 3: that's on women because they were the majority voters in
- 50:08Speaker 3: the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties up to today. They were
- 50:13Speaker 3: voting for the men who are sending these men to
- 50:15Speaker 3: war for their own interests. And part of the interest
- 50:21Speaker 3: is is that people keep using the American dollar, which
- 50:25Speaker 3: then puts as the world reserve currency, which then puts
- 50:29Speaker 3: the US in a uniquely beneficial position to purchase goods.
- 50:34Speaker 8: From other countries.
- 50:35Speaker 3: So this was directly beneficial to American women. Right, These
- 50:40Speaker 3: wars directly benefit American women, and they vote for politicians
- 50:47Speaker 3: who keep getting us into them. And when we see
- 50:51Speaker 3: the war in Afghanistan, we see the war in the Ukraine,
- 50:54Speaker 3: you see that. Who are the biggest warmongers? Women go
- 50:59Speaker 3: on Twitter. They have no interest in anything but the
- 51:04Speaker 3: narrative that we must go to war for whatever reason,
- 51:08Speaker 3: whatever excuse. Even the Israeli Palestinian conflict, on both sides,
- 51:14Speaker 3: the biggest agitators are women. Go look, go see who's
- 51:18Speaker 3: shouting death to Canada, Death to Palestine, Death to Israel.
- 51:23Speaker 3: You know, it's women beating the war drums. So don't
- 51:26Speaker 3: give me this crap about women not wanting war. They
- 51:30Speaker 3: just don't have to die in them.
- 51:32Speaker 1: Well, that's it.
- 51:32Speaker 2: It makes it a lot easier for them to like,
- 51:35Speaker 2: you know, agitate for war because they're not risking anything.
- 51:40Speaker 5: All right, let's play some more, and nationally they were
- 51:43Speaker 5: paid an average of fifty nine cents for every dollar
- 51:46Speaker 5: a man earned. In short, American women were still second
- 51:50Speaker 5: class citizens.
- 51:52Speaker 3: Really, it's hard for a kid. Way, let's address that directly.
- 51:56Speaker 3: Women were second class citizens. So the group of people
- 52:00Speaker 3: who is obligated and when just probably not even a
- 52:04Speaker 3: few years after this movie had actually been forced to
- 52:07Speaker 3: go and fight in the foreign wars protecting the interests
- 52:11Speaker 3: of this country that they're talking from, women were the
- 52:15Speaker 3: second class citizen. Really, No, you are victims of your
- 52:20Speaker 3: own choices. That's it. You're victims of your own choices.
- 52:26Speaker 3: And every single thing, every single time a woman points
- 52:30Speaker 3: to the past, the limitation placed on women, you can
- 52:33Speaker 3: see there was that limitation put a corresponding obligation on men,
- 52:37Speaker 3: limitations on credit, obligations to men, paying that credit off,
- 52:42Speaker 3: all right, and it is disingenuous. This entire narrative has
- 52:49Speaker 3: been a lie from the start, a very very lucrative lie.
- 52:55Speaker 3: To be sure. Maybe it was in some ways a
- 52:59Speaker 3: necessary life, but it is a lie.
- 53:05Speaker 2: All right, This is Margot Adler, correspondent for NPR.
- 53:09Speaker 9: Realize that in nineteen sixty four or five six, whenever,
- 53:16Speaker 9: if a woman sat on a park bench reading a book,
- 53:20Speaker 9: chances were she would be interrupted, and that the man
- 53:24Speaker 9: who came up to her would assume that she would
- 53:28Speaker 9: rather talk to him than read the book. If two
- 53:30Speaker 9: women were in a restaurant eating together.
- 53:32Speaker 2: Oh no, the humanity, Well, this is the same place
- 53:40Speaker 2: we have.
- 53:40Speaker 1: Now this person.
- 53:42Speaker 2: I guarantee you, this woman makes more money than me
- 53:45Speaker 2: and she gets to just that.
- 53:48Speaker 3: Yeah. But it's just like, this is the same damn complaint.
- 53:51Speaker 1: It is nothing. I have to interact men. I have
- 53:54Speaker 1: to interact with men. Yes, it ever.
- 53:57Speaker 3: Men come up to me and talk to me.
- 53:59Speaker 8: How dare?
- 54:01Speaker 3: How dare?
- 54:02Speaker 1: She's basically like, don't you hate it when men?
- 54:05Speaker 3: Yeah? But seriously, was that really the cry of the
- 54:09Speaker 3: oppressed person? I have to interact with with my oppressed No,
- 54:15Speaker 3: that's that's the cry of the aristocrat having to walk
- 54:19Speaker 3: through a town and see the peasants. That's the cry
- 54:22Speaker 3: of the empress when the serf dares to lift his
- 54:26Speaker 3: eyes towards her. That's the cry of somebody who believes
- 54:31Speaker 3: that they should have an absolute right to decide who
- 54:34Speaker 3: communicates with them. No, you don't. You're in a public space.
- 54:39Speaker 3: Men want to come up to you and talk to you,
- 54:42Speaker 3: so be it.
- 54:44Speaker 1: You're in more. We need more of that extreme misogyny
- 54:48Speaker 1: that's going to be banned.
- 54:50Speaker 2: People where men make like, you know, the man's plame
- 54:53Speaker 2: while doing skateboard tricks.
- 54:56Speaker 3: This is extreme, are you right what you're saying?
- 55:02Speaker 1: Paragliding and.
- 55:05Speaker 2: Pounding down a red bull and saying, you know, like
- 55:10Speaker 2: excuse me while I man explained this to you, honey.
- 55:13Speaker 2: All right, anyways, let's listen to some more.
- 55:17Speaker 9: It was common for a man or a couple of
- 55:19Speaker 9: men to come up to them and assume that they
- 55:22Speaker 9: were there to be talked to, and that they weren't
- 55:24Speaker 9: there for any purpose of themselves. It's hard to believe
- 55:27Speaker 9: that this happened, because it doesn't. And that really has changed,
- 55:30Speaker 9: I mean, there really have been significant changes in our relationships.
- 55:35Speaker 1: And yeah, men are avoiding you now because you're insufferable.
- 55:39Speaker 3: Well, there's been significant changes, and yet same complaint today has.
- 55:45Speaker 1: Nothing's changed, same as it.
- 55:48Speaker 3: Ever was, same as it ever was.
- 55:52Speaker 1: All right, But that was not true in the sixties.
- 55:57Speaker 9: And so what began to happen in nineteen seventy seventy
- 56:01Speaker 9: one is that women began to they set up these
- 56:04Speaker 9: consciousness raising groups in which they would, for the first time,
- 56:08Speaker 9: not be interrupted, and everything was talked about, you know,
- 56:12Speaker 9: everything from high school to your first menstruation, to your
- 56:15Speaker 9: first sex to go, you know, everything was talked about.
- 56:18Speaker 9: But the principle was that you went around in a
- 56:20Speaker 9: circle and no one interrupted you.
- 56:22Speaker 4: Thank you.
- 56:23Speaker 2: So, consciousness raising do you guys know what this is?
- 56:27Speaker 2: This is a buzzword, This is a this is a
- 56:29Speaker 2: comedy buzzword. It's a form of activism popularized by feminists
- 56:34Speaker 2: in the late nineteen sixties. It often takes the form
- 56:36Speaker 2: of a group of people attempting to focus the attention
- 56:39Speaker 2: of a wider group on some cause or condition. Common
- 56:43Speaker 2: issues include diseases like breast cancer, conflicts like the global
- 56:48Speaker 2: warming movements like Greenpeace, peda Earth Hour, and political parties
- 56:53Speaker 2: or politicians. Since Informing the populace of a public concern
- 56:57Speaker 2: is often regarded as the first step to changing high
- 57:00Speaker 2: all the institutions handle it. Raising awareness is often the
- 57:03Speaker 2: first activity in which any advocacy group engages. So but
- 57:08Speaker 2: when they do these like sit ins, it's all about
- 57:11Speaker 2: essentially creating a sense of.
- 57:15Speaker 1: How do we put this?
- 57:16Speaker 2: Women, young women get together with these older women, the
- 57:19Speaker 2: older women, you know, bombarding to them with this consciousness
- 57:25Speaker 2: raising stuff, and they convince the younger women of the
- 57:28Speaker 2: the older women's narratives.
- 57:30Speaker 1: They get pushed that way. It's the Hegelian dialectic, you know.
- 57:34Speaker 2: And and uh so you see here, well you're you're
- 57:37Speaker 2: gonna see I'll play more. But consciousness raising is basically
- 57:40Speaker 2: like propagandizing women through struggle sessions. Essentially, I mean, they
- 57:44Speaker 2: may not be like opposed, they might be interested, but
- 57:48Speaker 2: this is to drive it home.
- 57:50Speaker 1: So anyway, okank, which is.
- 57:53Speaker 8: Still effectually mean.
- 57:55Speaker 3: As you know, I really like women, and I didn't
- 57:57Speaker 3: like women before.
- 57:59Speaker 12: Women were not usually educated, they were not usually.
- 58:03Speaker 5: Very vital, they were usually passive.
- 58:05Speaker 3: So I found men were cooler.
- 58:06Speaker 16: I don't want to see women adopting a lot of
- 58:09Speaker 16: these I think bad characteristic that you should consider masculine,
- 58:14Speaker 16: such as aggressiveness up to the point of fighting. And
- 58:19Speaker 16: I don't think that we do not want to become
- 58:22Speaker 16: that way, but we are in that way. Men become
- 58:25Speaker 16: false women.
- 58:28Speaker 3: It was like a silence the woman that said, but
- 58:31Speaker 3: we are that.
- 58:32Speaker 1: Way, yeah, shut her down.
- 58:36Speaker 4: Down a way.
- 58:37Speaker 3: They're like, oh, we'll just shove that in the closet.
- 58:42Speaker 1: This reminds me of when it's another same as it
- 58:46Speaker 1: ever was when these all of these like protests.
- 58:49Speaker 2: Were going on in college campuses. You know, like I
- 58:51Speaker 2: need some muscle over here, like around that time period.
- 58:54Speaker 1: And you would get a woman that would like basically
- 58:58Speaker 1: you you create. You have a room full.
- 59:01Speaker 2: Of of college students and they all want to say something,
- 59:04Speaker 2: and so they gives one person the microphone or the megaphone,
- 59:08Speaker 2: and they talked for a while, and then they hand
- 59:10Speaker 2: it to the next person. And what happens is they
- 59:12Speaker 2: stop talking about whatever the subject is, and they're all
- 59:15Speaker 2: just trying to one up each other because they're trying
- 59:17Speaker 2: to be the most profound, get the most like the

- 1:00:37Speaker 1: over flash ignition.
- 1:00:39Speaker 10: It would be like lighting your gas furnace and you
- 1:00:42Speaker 10: just go boom, and all of a sudden you had
- 1:00:48Speaker 10: insight into things that happened in the past, and you
- 1:00:51Speaker 10: were able to move forward with this inside and it
- 1:00:54Speaker 10: changed your whole context. And it happened in a group
- 1:00:58Speaker 10: with other people who were experiencing the same thing. So
- 1:01:02Speaker 10: you felt validated. You didn't feel crazy anymore, and you
- 1:01:06Speaker 10: knew that.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: You are really No, they're not crazy, they're evil.
- 1:01:11Speaker 3: You are absolutely one hundred percent fucking crazy or evil.
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: I mean, how how did these consciousness raising sessions not
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: notice that they had time to do it? Where did
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: that time come? Where did that time come from? Where
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: did the time come from? It came from that really
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: expensive kitchen that that woman walked out of. Who paid
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: for that? The man right no appreciation for that. You
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: guys complained on time bought bought for you by men.
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: It reminds me of this a while back. You might
- 1:01:48Speaker 3: have remembered these these events. We went I went to
- 1:01:51Speaker 3: the Women's March. I think twenty sixteen, so eight years ago.
- 1:01:56Speaker 3: I also in Washington, d C. I Wash before I
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: was banned from the US, but I went to Washington,
- 1:02:05Speaker 3: D C. And I went to the Women's march, and
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: you know, you had the women going up on stage
- 1:02:10Speaker 3: beaking about crap, and the whole march, like thousands of
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: people marched, and I got video footage and I watched
- 1:02:18Speaker 3: the whole thing and afterwards, because I didn't I didn't
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: actually arrive at in time to watch the stadium that
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: all of these women stood up on. They walked up
- 1:02:29Speaker 3: to the stadium to be heard. I didn't actually watch
- 1:02:32Speaker 3: it assembled, but I watched it torn down. It was
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: all men.
- 1:02:38Speaker 14: Men.
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the stadium, the stage.
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: Men built the stage that the women's march stood on
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: to complain about men. And that does just really just
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: hit me.
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: And they took everything down.
- 1:02:55Speaker 3: To they cleaned up after them. They took everything down well,
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: not to mention they built everything that they stepped up
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: on and complained. It just really struck me. I actually
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: thanked the guy. I was like, yeah, thank you for
- 1:03:07Speaker 3: doing this, and he's like, my job, you know, And
- 1:03:11Speaker 3: but it's like this is the absolute state of women's complaints.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Mm.
- 1:03:20Speaker 3: They complain on a stage built by men so that
- 1:03:25Speaker 3: they can complain. These women complain using time, time paid
- 1:03:30Speaker 3: for them by their husbands.
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: Yep, and same as it ever was. They bring up
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: the past, same as it ever was. Yeah, And they
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: bring up the past and then they treat it like
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: the present. So it's like there's always history, but the
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: history is always relevant to the present because it's necessary
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: to invoke history. So no matter how much how much
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: things get better, which I don't think they do really,
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: the feminists are always have but there's still a lot
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: of work to be done, right, We still have a
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: long way to go. It's like the ultimate tagline of
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: I will always have a job. That's what it means, right,
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: I'm always going to get paid because there will always
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: be something else to fine.
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: Okay, anyway, let's finish this offing tally.
- 1:04:19Speaker 10: What you were saying and feeling was the truth.
- 1:04:22Speaker 9: And that's when women suddenly understood that their own personal
- 1:04:26Speaker 9: history was significant. And that's where the phrase the personal
- 1:04:29Speaker 9: is political came from.
- 1:04:31Speaker 12: And that connection of realizing that the personal is political.
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: Same as it ever was, The personal is political, same
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: as it ever was because you.
- 1:04:43Speaker 3: Have no actual oppression, So you have to basically say
- 1:04:48Speaker 3: that your oppression is as a result of your personal
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: relationships that you chose to get into. I am oppressed
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: by my chosen personal relationships. Yep, that's literally what they're saying.
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: I am oppressed by my relationship with a man because
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: and again because he created a situation in which my
- 1:05:14Speaker 3: leisure time increased by nine hours a day.
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: Yep. So that was the first video. I thought I
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: had most of the meat.
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: Now this video is longer, but I think there's less
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: useful stuff. Although I will start with the beginning because
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: I like the bit about the women's role in World
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: War two. So let's look at that because I thought
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: that's kind of neat, because like, I missed that kind
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: of woman, even though I never knew her.
- 1:05:40Speaker 17: When the United States joined the war, the same appeal was.
- 1:05:43Speaker 6: Made, we must win this war, like, we can't win
- 1:05:48Speaker 6: this war unless you women take over the jobs that
- 1:05:51Speaker 6: men are leaving. English women have done it for three years.
- 1:05:54Speaker 6: American women are now doing it all over the country.
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: How do you like it?
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: Okay, this is obvious propaganda, but it's really endearing anyway.
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: So that's good, Muriel, you go ahead and drill those holes.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: But I mean that.
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, though, the sentiment
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: is what it's about, because this is propaganda, but it's still,
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: like I said, it's kind of appealing.
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: I know, people are gonna.
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: Come in and be like, well, actually, you know men
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: were doing like well yeah, yeah, we know, but they
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: were like literally the only thing that was asked of
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: women is to sort of help supply men with what
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: they needed while men were over there getting like the
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: ship blown out of them, you know, like and I
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: I you know, it's obviously.
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: Not a fair trade, but that's not important.
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: The point is is that women were at least like
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: expected to do their part, and there was they were
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: encouraged to do so.
- 1:06:45Speaker 3: So yeah, there was still a sense of national well
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: it was it.
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: Was like it was like service, that was it.
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: It was like women serving the men who are protecting
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: the country, right, They're dying for their country, and at
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: least there was some gratitude.
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: I think that.
- 1:07:03Speaker 9: Uh.
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: And of course, like men were the men who were overseas,
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: you know, fighting in the wars, they watched these videos
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: and it was supposed to give them the same. Oh,
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: the ladies are looking out for us, right, because, like,
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: I mean, what else do you have. You're like in
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: a war country. You don't know the language that people
- 1:07:19Speaker 2: are speaking, and everyone's trying to kill you that doesn't
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: speak English.
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: So yeah, all right, anyway, well.
- 1:07:27Speaker 17: Let's but the temporary nature of it all was constantly emphasized.
- 1:07:34Speaker 5: And Lee Dunning, who now wells one landing badges?
- 1:07:37Speaker 12: And what about after this Warley, Well, this job belongs
- 1:07:41Speaker 12: to some soldier.
- 1:07:42Speaker 10: When he comes back, he can have.
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: All that's went.
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: Jesus.
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: Okay, of course this is it's kind of Sacharine, but
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: it crazy.
- 1:07:53Speaker 3: Let's look at the situation when a soldier comes back
- 1:07:58Speaker 3: after having made the ultimate sacrifice, well, I mean, not
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: the second to ultimate sacrifice, because he sacrificed, he did
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: come back, and she's going to make sure that he
- 1:08:09Speaker 3: has a job to come back to, which incidentally is
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: essential for his future. He's not going to be able
- 1:08:15Speaker 3: to become a wife and sit on someone else's labor, right,
- 1:08:20Speaker 3: So she's saying, I'm going to that this is this
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: job is going to go back to the men who
- 1:08:26Speaker 3: sacrifice their lives to uphold our economic interests that make
- 1:08:31Speaker 3: the job available. To anybody in the first place, Are
- 1:08:35Speaker 3: you like, this is your oppression? Is it the fact
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: that men get anything in exchange for their sacrifice? No,
- 1:08:44Speaker 3: this is the consistent refrain. Men got the vote, well,
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: not all men, only men who demonstrated a willingness to
- 1:08:51Speaker 3: sacrifice for the cultures or the country, or the civilization
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: the society that had the vote. Those men got the vote.
- 1:08:57Speaker 3: I mean, the whole history of having influence in the
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: government is is the history of franchise. To start, well,
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: in Rome, Roman male citizens fought. That's why they had
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: a vote. Right in the Middle Ages. After the fall
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: of Rome. What happened is as as society began to solidify,
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: the there would be a levee of troops for the
- 1:09:26Speaker 3: for the lord, and those those people who were able,
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: those men who were able to fight, got to say
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: in politics. And then going on further and further and further,
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: you see that the franchise, it doesn't proceed. It actually
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: follows the willingness to sacrifice to uphold the system that
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: gives you the vote in the first place. Right, And
- 1:09:47Speaker 3: then feminists look back at that and frame that as
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: oppression of women, because it's a it is and it's
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: not even a privilege in response to sacrifice. It's necessary
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: for people, the men who are making the sacrifice, to
- 1:10:04Speaker 3: have a say in how it's directed. Right, that is,
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: that is the least you can do. And why should
- 1:10:11Speaker 3: women have a say if they're not making those sacrifices,
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: and they frame that as oppression of women. And once again,
- 1:10:18Speaker 3: this woman is going to give up her job because
- 1:10:22Speaker 3: she's going to go back to being a wife and mother,
- 1:10:25Speaker 3: and she's going to allow a soldier to have a
- 1:10:28Speaker 3: place to return to after sacrificing or potentially sacrificing everything
- 1:10:34Speaker 3: for the culture that they both benefit from.
- 1:10:38Speaker 8: Are you freaking men?
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: I'm so freakin tired of the framing. If something is
- 1:10:44Speaker 3: given to men in response to an expected sacrifice, it
- 1:10:50Speaker 3: is not privilege, male privilege. M hm, it is not
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: oppression of women.
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: Yep, all right.
- 1:11:01Speaker 2: I got a rumble rant from Nova fan twenty one.
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: He gives us a dollar and says, it sure would
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: be a shame if this was the little remaining evidence
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: of a stable society the upcoming decade. Well, I hope
- 1:11:12Speaker 2: it doesn't take a war to do that, but yeah,
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: I get it. Thank you for that, because I think
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: I think that there is like the war probably had
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: a large effect on our appreciation for men, and also
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: that just things were harder. I'm gonna jump ahead to
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: because a lot of this stuff is like the same.
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: It's like, oh, women were domesticated and men were criticizing.
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: You want to hear the coffee thing. I love the
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: coffee thing. Hold on, let's take a look at that.
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: That's a hilarious commercial. Basically, these are the ways that
- 1:11:39Speaker 2: they were trying to say women were put upon. Remember
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: this video opened up with World War two. I remember
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: that when we see what they're complaining about here.
- 1:11:50Speaker 11: On the first morning of our honeymoon, I discovered my
- 1:11:53Speaker 11: beautiful bride didn't know the first thing about coffee, and
- 1:11:57Speaker 11: I love good coffee. Fis said, this is Maxwell house
- 1:12:02Speaker 11: so remember, be a good little Maxwell housewife, and this
- 1:12:06Speaker 11: honeymoon could last.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: For every base. We need more commercials like this. I
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: thought it was funny. Now be a good little Maxwell housewife.
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: Oh man, remember guys died in war so that that
- 1:12:24Speaker 2: commercial could be made.
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: Let's give her the sacrifice. You know, just this is
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: like make ten years earlier. Just you know, men the
- 1:12:33Speaker 3: the D Day, you know, Juno Beach. That's Canadian. The
- 1:12:40Speaker 3: other one, what are the other ones? Normandy? You know
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: the invasion, all these men dying in war. But you know,
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: this lady's being judged by her ability to create.
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: Coffee, I think is a yeah, like yeah.
- 1:12:54Speaker 3: Yeah, this is this is shut up.
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: But she's being belittled.
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: No, it isn't even that. It's about her own competition,
- 1:13:08Speaker 3: competitive like feeling competitive with her spos social sphere, other wives, like,
- 1:13:13Speaker 3: I mean, this is appealing to jealousy and competition and women.
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: You know, it's still we still do it.
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: But I just can't came as it ever was.
- 1:13:25Speaker 3: Same and as it ever was. I just yeah, she's
- 1:13:27Speaker 3: you had to make a cup of coffee, dear, Well, she.
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: Didn't make She doesn't know anything about coffee.
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: Her husband had to man explained to her how to
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: make coffee appropriately.
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: And it involves Maxwell house. Oh miss he does another
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: another one here?
- 1:13:56Speaker 4: Huh?
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: The hell's a men's lot?
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: Then I know it's cringe.
- 1:14:03Speaker 18: I know, of course, which would lead to professional employment,
- 1:14:07Speaker 18: but one would fitted her for that very very important
- 1:14:11Speaker 18: career of being missus Bill Johnson.
- 1:14:17Speaker 17: And of course less technically competent.
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a his girl Friday, I think it was,
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: and it was in that movie. The basic premise is
- 1:14:30Speaker 3: that there's this real hot shot female newspaper woman and
- 1:14:35Speaker 3: she has a boss who is sort of an on again,
- 1:14:38Speaker 3: off again lover who wants to keep her in the
- 1:14:41Speaker 3: business because he likes how good she is at it
- 1:14:45Speaker 3: and he likes the fact that she makes her him money.
- 1:14:47Speaker 8: Or she gets the scoop or whatever.
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: And she's left him one of the ump team times
- 1:14:52Speaker 3: that she's left him for a guy who is going
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: to allow her to stay at home and be a mom,
- 1:14:58Speaker 3: And it's presented like this guy who's allowing her to
- 1:15:02Speaker 3: become a mother, to take to be in the role
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: of mother, is actually elevating her status, like she is
- 1:15:12Speaker 3: like I am she He respects me as a woman
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: and a mother and a potential mother, and this other
- 1:15:19Speaker 3: dude is like, Yeah, I don't care. You're just you're
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: You're good at your job. That's what I like. And
- 1:15:23Speaker 3: he eventually seduces her back into position of being a
- 1:15:28Speaker 3: news you know, in the news, and it's obvious that
- 1:15:32Speaker 3: he's still going to continue to just use her for
- 1:15:35Speaker 3: her talents and not actually marry her or make her
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: a mother, a mother, and a wife, but that the
- 1:15:40Speaker 3: way that it's presented is that being a mother and
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: a wife is something that is has more status and
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: more prestige than what she's currently doing, so she guys
- 1:15:53Speaker 3: has to be suckered into doing the work of being
- 1:15:56Speaker 3: a newswoman. And I just thought that was so striking
- 1:15:59Speaker 3: and it really got me thinking because I've seen other
- 1:16:02Speaker 3: things that sort of indicate the same thing in the
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: past of just how much prestige and respect and status
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: women had for being wives and mothers. So, for example,
- 1:16:13Speaker 3: there was a etiquette film from I think the sixties
- 1:16:16Speaker 3: about how to approach your superior officer in the navy,
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: and it had all of these things like, you're not
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: supposed to do this, You're supposed to differ in this way,
- 1:16:26Speaker 3: you're supposed to and this is too like a semen
- 1:16:30Speaker 3: to semen to his like like admiral or whatever, or
- 1:16:34Speaker 3: a captain, right, and you had to adoff your cap,
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: you had to open the door. But when it came
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: to having a woman in the room, all of that
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: was thrown out because she socially outranked an admiral or
- 1:16:49Speaker 3: a captain or whatever, anybody, any man.
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: They all had to defer to her.
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: She was served first, she had the door open for her.
- 1:17:00Speaker 3: The admiral had to defer to her, and that was
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: part of the etiquette. So the expectation was that deference
- 1:17:08Speaker 3: be given to a woman over a man of any rank.
- 1:17:13Speaker 3: I want that to sync in. That was the situation
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: of women and mothers in the past. They had deference,
- 1:17:19Speaker 3: they had respect. They were expected to be treated with
- 1:17:22Speaker 3: greater amounts of I guess servility than men of any
- 1:17:25Speaker 3: rank because they were a mother and a wife. Okay,
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: so this wasn't just one sided, which is how it's
- 1:17:35Speaker 3: being presented.
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: Yeah, of course.
- 1:17:38Speaker 2: So there was a couple of other examples, and then
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: it goes into a section that sort of reflects the
- 1:17:41Speaker 2: previous one. We're running out of time, but I have
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: a couple of things I want to get to. So
- 1:17:45Speaker 2: this segment is about the feminine mystique. I believe that's
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: the book, right, I.
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: Mean, my husband or myself. I realized it wasn't us,
- 1:17:54Speaker 3: it was the society.
- 1:18:01Speaker 17: In nineteen sixty three, American society was changing fast. The
- 1:18:05Speaker 17: campaign for civil rights for black Americans was making real progress.
- 1:18:11Speaker 17: Women's grievances became another cause. They called for an end
- 1:18:15Speaker 17: to discrimination on grounds of gender too. The Great March
- 1:18:19Speaker 17: in Washington that year led to a landmark victory for
- 1:18:22Speaker 17: all minorities and also.
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: For women who are not minorities.
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: But also they didn't have the same concerns, Like literally,
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: they are conflating the situation for women with the situation
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: for black people and belittling segregation, slavery, and that whole
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: the whole long historical march towards correcting that and in
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: some cases overcorrecting. Right, they're belittling that whole thing by
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: comparing it to women. Every single restriction in law placed
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: on women came with the corresponding obligation on men. Somebody
- 1:19:05Speaker 3: complained about my wardrobes, so I'm putting my very fashionable
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: shades shades on.
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's see, let's play some more.
- 1:19:17Speaker 17: President Johnson, the Civil Rights Act of nineteen sixty four
- 1:19:20Speaker 17: guaranteed equal rights for everyone.
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: And I looked into it.
- 1:19:26Speaker 2: There's really nothing about rights, but this is how they
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: frame it. It was just like he made it illegal
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: to discriminate on the basis of race and stuff like that.
- 1:19:36Speaker 2: I think that was a mistake because I think it's
- 1:19:38Speaker 2: it's an affront to freedom of association. I think that
- 1:19:42Speaker 2: we're feeling the downstream effects of that. Bake the cake,
- 1:19:45Speaker 2: you bigot. But whatever, it doesn't matter. I'm just I'm
- 1:19:49Speaker 2: just saying that. And again, this was right after Kennedy's assassination.
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: Then it was sort of used to push this through,
- 1:19:57Speaker 2: and I think it did way more damage than to
- 1:19:59Speaker 2: black than anything that came before, I mean, maybe excluding slavery.
- 1:20:08Speaker 17: With the passing of the Act, women started to apply
- 1:20:10Speaker 17: for jobs they had previously been barred from. Telephone operator
- 1:20:14Speaker 17: Lorena Weeks saw her chance.
- 1:20:17Speaker 13: I was very excited. I knew this would mean that
- 1:20:20Speaker 13: women could have better paying jobs. I bed on the
- 1:20:24Speaker 13: job for switchman, and my bid was returned stating that
- 1:20:28Speaker 13: though this was not a job being awarded to women.
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: But I mean, like switch operator is well, anyway, that
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: was a landmark until it wasn't.
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: Then it was like, we need the next thing.
- 1:20:43Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, it's never ending, It is never freaking ending.
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:20:49Speaker 3: And also again, this was a time where men had
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: legal obligations to the financial upkeep of their wives. The
- 1:20:57Speaker 3: fact that they had any kind of privilege in the
- 1:21:02Speaker 3: career or in the workplace, I mean, yeah, sure, but
- 1:21:07Speaker 3: they still were financially obligated to their wives, and they
- 1:21:12Speaker 3: were in a way that they aren't anymore because they
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: had to. Like it wasn't even just they had to
- 1:21:19Speaker 3: upkeep at divorce.
- 1:21:20Speaker 8: They had to pay alimony.
- 1:21:22Speaker 3: They literally had to keep their wife. They had to
- 1:21:25Speaker 3: work to keep their wife when they were married. So
- 1:21:28Speaker 3: you couldn't be unemployed in a husband. I don't know
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: how that worked. I don't know if they jailed them
- 1:21:34Speaker 3: or find them, which would have made no sense. But
- 1:21:37Speaker 3: it's like, yeah, again, restriction on women, obligation on men.
- 1:21:45Speaker 6: This is a highly effective means of contraception.
- 1:21:48Speaker 14: I think the.
- 1:21:48Speaker 18: Figures currently being used indicate that it's about ninety nine
- 1:21:53Speaker 18: points something effective.
- 1:21:55Speaker 17: By preventing ovulation, the pill let women control their fertility
- 1:21:59Speaker 17: as never before. By nineteen sixty six, six million American
- 1:22:02Speaker 17: women used the contraceptive pill.
- 1:22:04Speaker 3: By nineteen sixty eight, it invented it.
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: Yeah, who invented the pill? Exactly?
- 1:22:11Speaker 3: Like again, men liberate women from something from a biological
- 1:22:16Speaker 3: or a like women had to work in the home.
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: It wasn't because of men. It was because the home
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: was where they could engage in the reproductive activities necessary
- 1:22:28Speaker 3: for a family. They could take care of kids, they
- 1:22:31Speaker 3: could nurse, they could give birth. I mean, it was
- 1:22:33Speaker 3: a safe place, and they could also pursue the kind
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: of jobs that were compatible with all of these activities.
- 1:22:40Speaker 3: That's it. It was biology that kept women in the home.
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: You got to hear this horror story about the pill.
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: They're going to say they think it's clever, but it's
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: actually kind of horrifying.
- 1:22:51Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:22:52Speaker 17: Almost overnight, long held constraints on sexual behavior could be
- 1:22:55Speaker 17: thrown aside. Moral latitudes were changing, and the sexual revolution
- 1:23:04Speaker 17: was underway. Starting at University in Michigan in nineteen sixty nine,
- 1:23:16Speaker 17: Amy Cohen had freedom her mother's generation had never known.
- 1:23:20Speaker 7: It was just like a new world had opened up
- 1:23:23Speaker 7: to me. I'm nineteen years old, I'm at a big university,
- 1:23:27Speaker 7: and I'm the world is telling me, and Betty for
- 1:23:30Speaker 7: Dan is telling me I can do anything I want.
- 1:23:34Speaker 7: It's like going from zero hard in your mind spins.
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: All right, that's not the woman, but I want to
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: I'm pausing for the banana just in case this is
- 1:23:44Speaker 2: I had downloaded the video, so this is yeah, and.
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: You get responsibility, but it's all about like the mentality. Yeah,
- 1:23:55Speaker 3: is so juvenile.
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: It is.
- 1:23:57Speaker 3: Where is the discussion of responsibilit mm.
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: Hmmm, same as it ever was.
- 1:24:03Speaker 3: Same as it ever was.
- 1:24:05Speaker 7: We didn't know quite what we were doing in our relationships,
- 1:24:08Speaker 7: but they were going to be equal. Equal was our word. Well,
- 1:24:13Speaker 7: one mistake, and you're you're off in the suburbs home
- 1:24:18Speaker 7: having having babies and starting.
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: A family, and you were, yeah, babies are a mistake.
- 1:24:25Speaker 3: One mistake, gentlemen, and you're ensuring the future of the
- 1:24:35Speaker 3: civilization that gave you all of these options in the
- 1:24:38Speaker 3: first place.
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: Gentlemen, I regret to inform you it was over.
- 1:24:50Speaker 17: Amy Khen asked the student health clinic for the pill.
- 1:24:55Speaker 7: I was raised that I wasn't going to have sex
- 1:24:58Speaker 7: until I was walking down the aisle. And so there
- 1:25:02Speaker 7: I sat, as a as a college student with my
- 1:25:06Speaker 7: wonderful partner in the waiting room, and I'm thinking, we're
- 1:25:08Speaker 7: all equal. Why am I here by myself?
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: It's not good enough? Like, what do you.
- 1:25:14Speaker 3: Mean you're in there yourself? Because men were like literally,
- 1:25:22Speaker 3: She's like, well, why is this a female old Why
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: can't my men come into a female only area?
- 1:25:31Speaker 7: Having to choke out that I needed the birth control pill,
- 1:25:36Speaker 7: it sounds funny. Now, but you know when I was,
- 1:25:39Speaker 7: I was nineteen, and it.
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: Was real hard.
- 1:25:43Speaker 17: Women now expected the pill would make it easier to
- 1:25:45Speaker 17: combine children with a career. Amy Cohen went on to graduate,
- 1:25:50Speaker 17: married and planned her family with precision.
- 1:25:53Speaker 7: I figured out exactly when I needed to get pregnant,
- 1:25:56Speaker 7: so that this baby would be born two weeks after finals,
- 1:26:00Speaker 7: and then I'd have a six week maternity leave, and
- 1:26:02Speaker 7: then I'd teach a class, and then i'd be full
- 1:26:03Speaker 7: time again in the fall I was, and it happened.
- 1:26:10Speaker 11: Twins.
- 1:26:13Speaker 17: And though nature could still confirm the best laid plans,
- 1:26:16Speaker 17: the pill brought a new equality to relationships. Annie Louilias
- 1:26:20Speaker 17: was determined to have a small family.
- 1:26:22Speaker 3: So mother nature. Mother nature creates a situation that women
- 1:26:27Speaker 3: have to deal with men. Fix it, and it's men
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: that are oppressing women.
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: Yeah, so here's that. This is the bit that I
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: thought was interesting. So this is FRAE. Pay attention to
- 1:26:40Speaker 1: the framing of this anecdote.
- 1:26:42Speaker 17: Okay, the pill brought a new equality to relationships. Annie
- 1:26:46Speaker 17: Luilias was determined to have a small family, though she
- 1:26:49Speaker 17: knew her husband wanted a large one.
- 1:26:52Speaker 4: Taking the pill meant breaking with tradition. For one thing,
- 1:26:56Speaker 4: I would have had or I should have had all
- 1:26:58Speaker 4: the children my husband want without the pill, he would
- 1:27:01Speaker 4: have been able to control me otherwise he didn't even
- 1:27:04Speaker 4: know when I took it.
- 1:27:05Speaker 17: I hid them so well that.
- 1:27:07Speaker 19: I could keep on taking them and said, I don't know.
- 1:27:10Speaker 17: Why I'm not getting pregnant using the pill. Annie lue
- 1:27:15Speaker 17: Elias kept her children to two.
- 1:27:20Speaker 19: It was like stopping the whole mechanism in the world
- 1:27:25Speaker 19: against women and against myself. I stopped being subject to
- 1:27:29Speaker 19: things and being a person.
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: So she used the pill, didn't tell her husband about it,
- 1:27:39Speaker 2: and basically just lied to him. She just lied to
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: her husband about like her fertility and then got two
- 1:27:45Speaker 2: kids and then stopped after that, And her her framing
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: of this is not I lied to my husband. I
- 1:27:53Speaker 2: didn't like to negotiate, like how many children I wanted
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: or whatever it was.
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: I just lied to him. I use the pill to like.
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: Control my fertility, which God knows what that did to
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: my hormones. But that doesn't really matter because we're only
- 1:28:08Speaker 2: learning about the effects of the pill today and I'm
- 1:28:12Speaker 2: okay with doing that because having children is oppression, like
- 1:28:19Speaker 2: on my body, and my husband shouldn't have that right.
- 1:28:22Speaker 3: So maybe if he knew, he could have told her
- 1:28:25Speaker 3: to get a job.
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: Yeah. Maybe, I don't know. I just think it's like
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: a really messed up way to use the pill.
- 1:28:34Speaker 2: Like, I don't know, it's like a really messed up way,
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: you know.
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: I think that I'm not sure that it's really a
- 1:28:43Speaker 2: good idea to use. But anyway, there is one more
- 1:28:47Speaker 2: little section I guess we can get into and then
- 1:28:49Speaker 2: we can stop.
- 1:28:53Speaker 17: In the age of the pill, and with Betty free
- 1:28:56Speaker 17: Dan as their bible, American activist began what soon became
- 1:28:59Speaker 17: a mass move.
- 1:29:01Speaker 14: In the name I'm the Mother, the Daughter, I'm the
- 1:29:04Speaker 14: Holy Granddaughter a.
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: Women, same as it ever was, the same as.
- 1:29:13Speaker 3: It ever was, Oh good Lord, in.
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: The name of the Mother and of the Daughter and
- 1:29:20Speaker 2: of the Holy Grandmother.
- 1:29:21Speaker 3: Oh Good Lord, and again women. All of the labor
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: saving devices that men invented, the pill that men invented,
- 1:29:30Speaker 3: all of that is what liberated women. Feminism just gave
- 1:29:37Speaker 3: them an excuse to blame men for it. For some
- 1:29:42Speaker 3: reason that was absolutely critical. Yeah, we all men have
- 1:29:46Speaker 3: constructed these labor saving devices that have taken our job
- 1:29:49Speaker 3: in the home from twelve hours a day, six hours
- 1:29:52Speaker 3: a week, two or six days a week to three
- 1:29:54Speaker 3: hours a day, five days a week. How can we
- 1:29:57Speaker 3: blame men for that? Men have invented the pill? How
- 1:30:00Speaker 3: can we.
- 1:30:01Speaker 8: Blame them for that? Unbelievable?
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: Yep, Okay, that's that's it. I mean, like there is else, Yeah, I.
- 1:30:13Speaker 2: Mean there really isn't it gets It's like the same.
- 1:30:16Speaker 2: You know, it's a lot of the stuff from the first.
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: Video is in this video. You know, I don't notice,
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: but feminists tend to repeat themselves.
- 1:30:24Speaker 8: Of course.
- 1:30:24Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: I mean they've been repeating themselves generation after generation and
- 1:30:28Speaker 3: after generation, and nobody seems to notice. And they also
- 1:30:32Speaker 3: appropriate the very next you notice that civil rights or
- 1:30:36Speaker 3: rights movement like they they they got they got in
- 1:30:39Speaker 3: on the civil rights movement like a dirty shirt.
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:30:42Speaker 3: And then we're like, yeah, that's us. A history of
- 1:30:47Speaker 3: oppression in which you were forced to labor and forced
- 1:30:50Speaker 3: to to go to war and force to give up
- 1:30:53Speaker 3: your your income, and that's us that we totally see that,
- 1:30:57Speaker 3: that's us, that's us, that's us. We were repressed just
- 1:31:02Speaker 3: like you. And now they're doing it again with trans
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: writes and the same screwed up stuff is happening because
- 1:31:11Speaker 3: they're turning what might be a legitimate issue to some
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: degree into a bullhorn and a talking point for women,
- 1:31:20Speaker 3: which distorts everything about the original issue. And they turn
- 1:31:25Speaker 3: like in order to do that, they turn these activists
- 1:31:29Speaker 3: into lunatics. You notice that, Like it's just like I'm
- 1:31:36Speaker 3: going to rec I'm going to take the civil rights
- 1:31:39Speaker 3: movement and reconstruct it as a tool for feminism, and
- 1:31:44Speaker 3: in so doing, I'm going to basically destroy black men.
- 1:31:48Speaker 2: Well not only the destroy black men, but they use
- 1:31:51Speaker 2: black men as tools to get more stuff.
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: I mean, that's what BLM is all about.
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: But yeah, even before that, when Lyndon Johnson passed that thing,
- 1:31:58Speaker 2: they were like, this isn't feminist enough. You know, you
- 1:32:01Speaker 2: got to protect the moms in there. And they well
- 1:32:05Speaker 2: specifically they promote single motherhood, abortion, basically everything that's that's
- 1:32:10Speaker 2: eating and destroying the black population in the United States.
- 1:32:15Speaker 3: Well, I mean they've yeah, and it's it's because they
- 1:32:19Speaker 3: want to co opt. They want to get in there
- 1:32:22Speaker 3: like a dirty shirt and they want to call it
- 1:32:23Speaker 3: and they do this with everything. They do it with
- 1:32:25Speaker 3: workers' rights too. I hate to say it, I'm pretty
- 1:32:27Speaker 3: sure that found for sure communism, not the other way around.
- 1:32:31Speaker 3: Then they consume like they consume the issues around the vote.
- 1:32:36Speaker 3: They did exactly the same thing when it came to
- 1:32:39Speaker 3: the vote, And they consume the issues around civil rights
- 1:32:42Speaker 3: and they twist assume yeah, and they consume the gay movement,
- 1:32:47Speaker 3: and now they're consuming the trans movement. And the funny
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: thing is is that when these women get their hooks
- 1:32:54Speaker 3: into this movement, they create so much resentment towards the
- 1:32:59Speaker 3: people who have legitimate grievances. You know, I'm not saying
- 1:33:02Speaker 3: that everything the trans movement says is right, or the
- 1:33:06Speaker 3: gay movement said is right, or the or the civil
- 1:33:09Speaker 3: rights movement at this point in time is said is right.
- 1:33:11Speaker 3: But they take legitimate grievances and invite manipulating it into
- 1:33:18Speaker 3: the patriarchal framework. They actually create tremendous resentment towards these
- 1:33:25Speaker 3: these minority groups in the general population because they are
- 1:33:30Speaker 3: turning them into something they find useful, that can manipulate
- 1:33:36Speaker 3: the situation in ways that they find useful. And then
- 1:33:39Speaker 3: the people who see that manipulation and that destruction blame
- 1:33:44Speaker 3: the minority groups instead of blaming the feminist groups that
- 1:33:48Speaker 3: are parasitizing on them. That's a that's a pretty strong statement.
- 1:33:54Speaker 3: So I'll let people just sort of cogitate.
- 1:33:56Speaker 1: On that, right, that's all A.
- 1:34:02Speaker 3: Women, we regret, gentlemen, we regret to inform you. Okay,
- 1:34:09Speaker 3: all right.
- 1:34:10Speaker 1: You might be surprised to see this as such.
- 1:34:13Speaker 2: A grainy image for something that from twenty twenty four.
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: But it's not. It's from the nineteen sixties and seventies.
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: I mean, it's change at.
- 1:34:20Speaker 3: All, Okay, And I just I want to point out something.
- 1:34:24Speaker 3: For some reason, we can understand why men need the
- 1:34:29Speaker 3: epic of Gilgamesh. So, for people who don't know, the
- 1:34:32Speaker 3: Epic of Gilgamesh is about how uh, a temple priestesses
- 1:34:36Speaker 3: and his friend Kadu took Gilgamesh from a selfish dipshit
- 1:34:40Speaker 3: into somebody who realized that he as a king, he
- 1:34:43Speaker 3: needed to serve as people and protect his people. So
- 1:34:46Speaker 3: that's the epic of taking masculinity and saying you need
- 1:34:52Speaker 3: to use the powers and abilities that you have in
- 1:34:56Speaker 3: service of others. And that is what it is to
- 1:34:59Speaker 3: grow up and become I'm mature man. Why do we
- 1:35:02Speaker 3: think women don't need that? Why do we think that
- 1:35:06Speaker 3: they do not need a to grow up? Apply an
- 1:35:12Speaker 3: external standard of service to others in order to become
- 1:35:16Speaker 3: good women or just women period adults. Why do we
- 1:35:20Speaker 3: think that we can just omit that for women? You
- 1:35:22Speaker 3: just be continue to talk about women's continuous liberation. More
- 1:35:27Speaker 3: shit that women deserve no, women deserve less until they
- 1:35:32Speaker 3: earn more. Okay, I'm done.
- 1:35:35Speaker 1: All right, Well I guess we can end the show here.
- 1:35:38Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, okay, So again, Well, if you guys want
- 1:35:42Speaker 3: to send a message at any time after the show is over,

- 1:36:17Speaker 1: A super sent one lesson. Did I miss it? I
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: don't see it here.
- 1:36:23Speaker 3: Let me see where it's.
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: I read the one about the Philadelphia, Mississippi thing.
- 1:36:31Speaker 3: It might take a moment.
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: Here it is here, it is I see it, Yeah,
- 1:36:34Speaker 1: I see it. Okay.
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: Uh So Richard Bierre gives us five bucks and says,
- 1:36:39Speaker 2: have you seen that clip of the FEMA zoom meeting
- 1:36:41Speaker 2: where they were playing oppression Olympics about just who should
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: get aid for hurricane recovery?
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: Yes? I did.
- 1:36:48Speaker 2: Meanwhile, men were actually just on the ground saving lives,
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: m just like with whatever they had.
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: But that was this a female clip about this explicit
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: situation happening or something that they found about the the
- 1:37:04Speaker 3: her doing a whole bunch of the FEMA director, which
- 1:37:07Speaker 3: is a woman doing a whole bunch of corporate speak
- 1:37:09Speaker 3: about uh DEI initiatives.
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: Yeah, was well, there were there was a there was
- 1:37:16Speaker 2: a zoom call. I don't know if it was that thing,
- 1:37:18Speaker 2: but I just saw I remember some of it where
- 1:37:20Speaker 2: they were just talking about like how you know, they
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: they basically were deciding how to prioritize, you know, the
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: people who are more or less deserving of support based
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: on their intersectional identity markers. And it was just like, meanwhile,
- 1:37:41Speaker 2: they were there were just like redneck white dudes, you know,
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: in helicopters trying to save people and rescue drowning dogs.
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:37:49Speaker 2: So, I mean, I guess it's just it's like women
- 1:37:53Speaker 2: talk about ship and men just get the ship. They're like,
- 1:37:56Speaker 2: let's just fix this, let's go, let's get it done.
- 1:37:59Speaker 3: Yeah, let's that's actually that's like women assigning where resources
- 1:38:04Speaker 3: should go is sort of like having control over resources
- 1:38:07Speaker 3: is like the wind condition for women, and that's like
- 1:38:11Speaker 3: it just comes right out of primatology. Like females compete
- 1:38:15Speaker 3: over resources and to be in a position to decide
- 1:38:19Speaker 3: where those resources go is just like it's it's it's
- 1:38:22Speaker 3: just the wind condition for women, and that's where all
- 1:38:26Speaker 3: this DEI crap comes from. It's deciding where the resources
- 1:38:29Speaker 3: should go. It's just chef's kiss for women. It's catnip.
- 1:38:34Speaker 3: And like I said, it just comes right out of primatology.
- 1:38:37Speaker 3: What the two genders want to compete over women are resources.
- 1:38:42Speaker 3: So that's how they attack other women. You notice with
- 1:38:45Speaker 3: the ballerina, the woman with her egg apron right, the froggy,
- 1:38:49Speaker 3: she did the whole relational aggression, but she didn't attack
- 1:38:52Speaker 3: her directly. She attacked her husband, which is the source
- 1:38:56Speaker 3: of her resources. Okay, all right, so I think I
- 1:39:01Speaker 3: did the thing, so I'll hand it back to you.
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: Brian.
