Transcript
- 0:00Hello, and welcome to HBr Talk three fourteen. What Dictionary Definition? I'm
- 0:07your host Hannah Wallen here with nonsense annihilator Lauren Brooks and the personification of perceptivity
- 0:13Mike Stevenson. And tonight we're going to answer the accusation that we're misrepresenting the
- 0:18Suffragettes because the dictionary definition tells us everything we need to know about feminism.
- 0:25But before we get into it, we gotta do what we gotta do.
- 0:29As always, Honey Badger Radio dishes out a smorgas board of thought provoking discussions.
- 0:34We got a smorgas board of little bits and pieces tonight to go with
- 0:39that. And as experiences both recent and long past have demonstrated the provoked thoughts
- 0:45are fighting back, they've made it clear that for people like us, relying
- 0:49on thirty third party payment platforms like Patreon to fund our work is treading on
- 0:54thin ice. And for the sound people, I'm really sorry about the plosives,
- 0:59but I actually lost my pop filter and haven't had the new ones haven't
- 1:04arrived yet, so that's what I get for traveling with my headphones. In
- 1:08any case, we are definitely financially treading on thin ice. With Patreon,
- 1:14because all of these financial organizations are under pressure to silence people like us,
- 1:23and we've seen that before with other people, so it would would not surprise
- 1:27us to have that disappear on us one day. But in the meantime,
- 1:33in light of this, we strongly encourage our supporters to switch at least their
- 1:37support for us to Feed the Badger dot com the most stable way to help
- 1:42us out, and if you want to tip us directly instead of relying on
- 1:45any social media platforms, tip jar. The link for that is feed the
- 1:49Badger dot com slash just the tip. And as always, the same risk
- 1:53applies to our social media platforms, which is why you should further provoke the
- 1:57thought police by tracking our thought provoking discussions on Honey Badger Brigade dot com,
- 2:04where you can find your way to all of our content, as well as
- 2:07a link to feed the Badger dot Com in the dropdown menu at the top
- 2:09of the page, which I think you can do now actually, because it
- 2:15looks like the technical difficulties with the blog are technically over, so I'm a
- 2:21happy happy girl today. I actually got to do a blog post, so
- 2:25hopefully I'm not talking out of my ass on that either, because if I
- 2:29am, my headset's really going to stink in the morning, and I still
- 2:31got to use it. But with that, we can get on with the
- 2:38what I've got up on the screen. As you can see, I have
- 2:40the dictionary definition. Believe this one is dictionary dot com, because this is
- 2:46the one people send me to all the time. A dictionary definition. Yes,
- 2:52and that's that's the That is the key right there, A dictionary defe
- 3:00This is the one that equity feminists really like to give everybody. They'll send
- 3:06you pictures of this, they'll send you copies of it where it says that
- 3:09feminism is the advocacy of women's rights on the basis of the equality of the
- 3:16sexes, and that's all it says. It doesn't say anything else, which
- 3:21isn't the classic definition of feminism. And it's definitely not the pre politic definition
- 3:30of feminism because before the definition of feminism was political, it was synonymous with
- 3:38femininity. So if you described a woman's feminism, you were describing her feminine
- 3:49characteristics, not her political outlook. And it was god, I can't think
- 3:55of his name, a socialist who organized some some communes. Yeah, the
- 4:05French guy. I can't think of his name. God, that's horrible.
- 4:11Fourier, yes, Fourier, Sorry, but yeah, it was Charles Fourier
- 4:15who coined the use of the term feminism to describe the political advocacy, but
- 4:24not as this definition describes it. So we have if you Google search this
- 4:32because I get told all the time to google it. So dictionary dot com
- 4:36says that, right. But if you scroll down to Britannica, Britannica says
- 4:42feminism the belief in social, economic and political equality of the sexes. It
- 4:47has to be real specific there. Although largely originating in the West, feminism
- 4:53is manifested worldwide dot dot dot and then it has a whole article. Merriam
- 4:59Webster says, the meaning of feminism is belief and advocacy of the political,
- 5:05economic, and social equality of the sexes, expressed especially through and I'm sure
- 5:12it's activism and stuff like that. Of course, some of them have the
- 5:16two definitions that that's what Merriam Webster had the last time, sorry, had
- 5:21had an a definition and definition? Yeah, was it all about equality?
- 5:27B is it's all about women? Yep? God, it helpful to to
- 5:30delineate those those two things. The thing they say is oh yeah, oh
- 5:38yeah, and and it is there is a and a bailey there. Then
- 5:41you have Wikipedia talks about it as a range of social, political movements and
- 5:47ideologies that aim to define and establish the political, economic, personal, and
- 5:53social equality of obviously the sexes. And as you get into different organizations.
- 6:01Now we have the International Women's Development Agency, which anybody tries to drop me
- 6:08in developing acid, I am going to knock you out. That's that's not
- 6:12okay, okay, that's bad for your skin. But and and also I
- 6:18don't I don't even have any fixing agent. Sou But says that feminism is
- 6:26about all genders. So I guess they mean all seventy two or one hundred
- 6:32and forty four or twenty eight or three or whatever number is correct today.
- 6:38Having you invent tomorrow, it could very well be nonsense sexual. And they
- 6:45go, well, it's it's we're about all genders. Yeah, there's no
- 6:49cap on that. There's no cap on seventy two or seven hundred and twenty.
- 6:54So any gender you can think of feminism is behind it, except male
- 6:59obviously. Yeah. I uh, all right, that's it. I'm going
- 7:04to start identifying as a butt crack. Then you have to address me with
- 7:12a straight face while picturing that for the rest of your life until I change
- 7:16my mind, which might be five minutes from now, because I am a
- 7:19woman, and we do that. But yeah, all equal rights and opportunities.
- 7:30And then they go into the whole diversity, women's experiences, identities,
- 7:33women's knowledge, you know, the whole women's ways of knowing, which apparently
- 7:39don't include logic, reason and facts. Cambridge Dictionary calls feminism a belief.
- 7:48It's a belief that women should be allowed the same rights, power and opportunities
- 7:54as men and be treated the same way. I don't think they would like
- 7:58it if they were treated the same way. I don't. I don't think
- 8:01I would like it if I was treated I don't like it when I get
- 8:03treated like a man. Sometimes I do get treated like a man, and
- 8:07I don't anyone who's been misgendered more than you. It's fun on Twitter to
- 8:15understand that Hannah is a woman's name. No, they don't woman's defending men.
- 8:20It must be a man. And they never got in trouble for misgender
- 8:24even during Twitter one point. Yeah no, no, the guy that was
- 8:28trying to get me banned. Did it quite a bit right? He misgendered
- 8:33me over and over again and didn't get banned, didn't get banned, but
- 8:37he finally called one of my followers a racial slur. That did it.
- 8:41So there there you go. He was trying to get away with it by
- 8:46saying, but I put the word house in front of it. Yeah,
- 8:54I'm like, yeah, no, that that's not how it works. All
- 9:01sorts of epithets, none of which I could say. You can sound all
- 9:07that in your own head and you'll say, uh, this is, by
- 9:11the way, the same guy that got triggered by bread. So just just
- 9:16for the record, and if you're if you don't know that story, ask
- 9:20me about it on x Twitter, whatever you want to call it. But
- 9:26yeah, back to these definitions. You've noticed that, like, none of
- 9:30them are exactly the same. Right, we get down to East Kentucky,
- 9:35Eastern Kentucky University, So this will be a gender studies course. Women in
- 9:39Gender Studies says feminism is an interdisciplinary approach to issues of equality and equity based
- 9:46on gender, gender expression, gender identity, sex and sexuality as blah blah
- 9:52blah blah blah. So we're getting into Feminism doesn't have a definition, right,
- 9:58it doesn't have a definition. It looks like it has a different definition
- 10:03for everybody that tries to tell you what it is, all right. Feminist
- 10:07is a person who believes that the subordination of women is not only unfair but
- 10:13immoral. The New York Times says, we have another Britannica entry here,
- 10:22which is kind of weird, right, human rights careers. At its core,
- 10:26feminism has a core now, so I imagine its core is really out
- 10:31of shape. Feminism is the belief that women deserve equal social, economical,
- 10:37and political rights and freedoms. And then it goes on to talk about what
- 10:41feminism has done, even though feminism really hasn't done anything because everything women have
- 10:48was handed to us by men. So there we go. So we have
- 10:56that, all right, get told look it up, Google it breed the
- 11:00dictionary, Okay, which one not one of the definitions caven notation and pointed
- 11:09to in the direction of the verb to feminize, which would And that's what
- 11:13the perfect way of delineating all of these various definitions and just saying it's the
- 11:20the state of having been feminized. Yep. Yeah, the one thing it's
- 11:28kind of what it all comes down to. It explains what was going on
- 11:31a hundred years ago, it explains what's going on now today. Yeah,
- 11:33we get feminized, and it's it's not really a good thing. It's not
- 11:39it's not healthy femininity. It's toxic femininity. Right, it's it's the the
- 11:45selfish, indulgent, entitled, angry, demanding kind. And that's that's not
- 11:54the only qualities that women are capable of exhibiting. Like, yes, we
- 11:56can do that, and we all have that capability. But when we grow
- 12:03up, we were supposed to learn to control that shit, just like men
- 12:07are supposed to learn to control that shit, only we don't get held to
- 12:11the same standards they do, and so very many women don't, right,
- 12:16And that's not new either, And I will I will point out all these
- 12:20definitions seem to be trying to get the idea across the feminism is about seeking
- 12:28equality that women don't have, which I consider to be bullshit because you can't
- 12:35name me a single law that takes anything away from women that that men have
- 12:41under that law, right, No, no rights that Yeah, well men
- 12:48don't have their children, right so but yeah, so there's there's not a
- 12:54law that prevents women from exercising any rights that men are allowed to exercise under
- 13:03the law. So there is that right. So if you look at the
- 13:09suffragettes, because that's who we're accused of misrepresenting the suffragettes, what what did
- 13:16their behavior tell us about their ideas about equality? Like, we just got
- 13:20done reading an article that indicated that American suffragettes and American early American feminists thought
- 13:31that women were superior and men needed to work with women because we're supposed to
- 13:37be partners. But but women are superior, and that's that's that's pretty much
- 13:43the sandwich that that she made. You know, at least she did make
- 13:46a sandwich, but I don't know. Let's take a look at the first
- 13:52article that I have here, and I'm not going to read from this because
- 13:56it's the layout is very inconvenient. But you can see this is a real
- 14:01article. This isn't I haven't. I'm gonna go to a blog, but
- 14:07I haven't gone to a blog that made this up out of whole cloth.
- 14:09This is this is real, all right. So the blog is called Unknown
- 14:15Missonry and the the for anybody that actually wants to visit, it's a blog
- 14:22spot blog. It's unknown misondry dot blogspot spot. I believe it's dot com
- 14:28yeah, dot blogspot dot com and it's all one word unknown missonry and then
- 14:35then the dot blogspot dot com. But this is this is the same article.
- 14:39Man is a mere impostor and woman is supreme, says ultrafeminist head.
- 14:48Yeah, that's an insult. We should use it. Yeah, just a
- 14:52feminist head, an ultra feminist head. Yeah, I guess the rest of
- 14:56your body doesn't talk, uh this. This woman's name is Marie Petty.
- 15:05It's not a description, it's her actual name from the British Isles. And
- 15:11this this article is from the Pittsburgh Press, May seventh, nineteen twenty two,
- 15:20so the same year as the one that we read last week and the
- 15:24week before. So, like I said, if we're misrepresenting this, should
- 15:31this should clear the air right already where it looks like we're not she what
- 15:35she had to say, And he actually found another article. So there's a
- 15:39second one that I might look through too as as we go through this.
- 15:43But the first one is she says, man is but one of a million
- 15:48humble fertilizers. Nature intended women to reign supreme that's that's that's why women invented
- 15:58toilet. It's right to make society grateful for for things like not having to
- 16:07to walk past poop on the sidewalk. Well, that's a misogyny. I
- 16:12haven't thought of how, but I don't have to suspend. Well, they're
- 16:17celebrated on the same day that we celebrate men. Yeah yeah, but yeah,
- 16:25no, no, it's total totally women who built all of civilization and
- 16:30uh and and and and discovered I can't really say anybody invented mathematics because it's
- 16:37just the language for how we describe quantities. So they discovered how to do
- 16:41that. But uh yeah, no, men were involved, right, and
- 16:47in the history of discovering how to describe quantities and how they work together and
- 16:52stuff. Uh right, Oh wait, such supremacy Noba fin twenty one.
- 17:00I'm sorry I missed it. Gave us a dollar and said I think we
- 17:06should address criticism of feminism as criticism toward women's rights to help further expose how
- 17:11guynocentric people are who claim to be anti feminist. Oh yeah, there we
- 17:18go. I don't a lot of the stuff that feminists fight fight for,
- 17:22though I don't consider it to be rights. In particular, a lot of
- 17:30the demands they have for access to things require other people's labor to be done
- 17:38for them free. You don't have a right to that. That's called slavery.
- 17:47Or they're taking money from other people to pay for those services, which
- 17:52is called theft, also known as taxation. So I just don't think those
- 18:00are rights. So I guess I would be on board with saying it's criticism
- 18:06toward women's rights, because the concept of women's rights has been bastardized. Anyway,
- 18:18we'll go on here with the article a Marie Petty leader of a secret
- 18:22ultra feminist movement, a secret ultra feminist movement that what newspaper was this again?
- 18:32Oh, the Pittsburgh Press wrote about because that's a good way to keep
- 18:37a secret women tief secrets. Well, you know, there's ever speedy different
- 18:47ways of communication, right, we had telephone, we had television, We
- 18:52telewoman. I can't even remember whose joke that originally was. It was definitely
- 19:00not originally mine. I heard that from somebody actually up on a stage with
- 19:04a microphone on television. I just cannot remember who. But so sorry for
- 19:12not giving credit exactly. But at least I didn't steal it. It's nothing
- 19:18there we go but at ultra feminist movement that has sprung up throughout the British
- 19:26Isles today voiced this slogan of the new organization. I guess it's still secret
- 19:32in Britain as it's being published in the United States right. Although still clandestine,
- 19:37the organization is reported to have gained tremendously in membership and influence since it
- 19:44first it was since first it was promulgated a month ago. It aims to
- 19:51restore a womankind to its quote rightful place, which again doesn't really say anything
- 20:00about where that is. Miss Petty was asked by the United States to state
- 20:04the beliefs on which her movement is based, So here we go. It's
- 20:12very much not based modern man, she replied, in his pose of superiority
- 20:22is but a mere contemptible impostor who must be subdued. Women's superiority has been
- 20:30scientifically established, So I'm wondering how she thinks that women were going to subdue
- 20:37men after being oppressed for all that time using the science of course, m
- 20:44M. At the beginning of organic life, woman created man, So apparently
- 20:51women are God now and ruled him. He was a parasite and a slave
- 20:56at best. Man is but an afterthought of sounds like it's all about equality,
- 21:03doesn't it. At secret meetings of the New Movement, a charter based
- 21:10on data from the days before women fell is being drawn up. Miss Petty
- 21:15declared, she said, at these meetings any mention of the word man or
- 21:21anything masculine was hissed. They sound very mature too. I'll bet, I'll
- 21:29bet they're all over thirty in its meetings. Then the next one, mere
- 21:41man is about to be swept off the face of the earth if ultra feminists
- 21:47have their way. Elliott O'Donnell, author and investigator of distinction, informs the
- 21:52International News Service, Oh well, now they're not a secret organization anymore.
- 21:57They're known internationally. The tenets of the ultra feminists who are organized to unthrown
- 22:04men are, according to O'Donnell, as follows. In the beginning, there
- 22:10was only one sex. The feminine man was a mistake, a mere afterthought
- 22:17there is. Yeah, that's that's not true. There was one sex,
- 22:21and it was called asexual, hence the name. I'm pretty sure females and
- 22:26males were created at the same time, because female necessarily means counter point two
- 22:32men. Females have always been the ones who gestate the young, just like
- 22:37the amebas that they apparently should be worshiping. So men and women aren't afterthought
- 22:44in nature. She's right about that. It was nothing but a sexual reproduction
- 22:48for a couple of billion years and then U slowly whatever whatever the word is,
- 23:00My microbiology is falling out of my brain at this point. Yeah,
- 23:04it's a bit interesting. Well, I mean, considering what I've been reading
- 23:07lately, we might just be meat mechs for bacteria, So there's that.
- 23:14But that it's it's a theory if if I got here first, therefore I
- 23:21should rule over this is how we're going. Then we really should hand the
- 23:26planet over to the animals, who should have turned hand over to the plants,
- 23:29who shouldn't turn handover to the mushrooms. And the mushrooms can rule the
- 23:32world because they can't even remember anything. Well, humanity is all going to
- 23:37die of an incurable yeast infection anyway, thanks to thanks to COVID. But
- 23:45in any case, yeah, so yeah, she says, man was a
- 23:49mistake. There is no need for any sex other than the feminine love between
- 23:56the sexes is only weakness, temporary madness. Life begins as female life is
- 24:04feminine, and personogenesis or virgin birth proves the oneness at the substance out of
- 24:14which all things are made. I don't think she understands exactly how the virgin
- 24:21birth was supposed to have occurred. The reason it was virgin birth was because
- 24:26there was no sex involved in the creation. The baby was implanted like that
- 24:34was supposed to be a miracle, not a osmosis reproduction. Albatross gives us
- 24:47two dollars and says Miss Petty is very fitting name, and Noba Fan twenty
- 24:49one gives us a dollar and says, I've heard people say during gestation everyone
- 24:55starts off as girls. That's not the when they think it is, because
- 24:57that means boys are the only gender that's special. Well, girls are ordinary.
- 25:03It's also not really right. Everybody starts out with their genitalia unformed,
- 25:10and it all looks the same as it's forming, and then you form your
- 25:15sex much later in gestation. Then you form the fact that there's a split
- 25:23and you have two legs, right, but the genes are there right exception,
- 25:30that's yeah, there's no, uh, we were all just females and
- 25:38the proof magically a penis pop. That's not well. I mean, you
- 25:42know, you you develop actual humanity when you go through the magic vagina,
- 25:48So apparently you could maybe develop a gender in the magic uterus or whatever.
- 25:56I don't know. Yeah, and again, fetuses start off mean embryos before
- 26:00they look like humans look kind of reptilia. And before and before that they
- 26:04look amphibium. Before that they look kind of fishy. You can trace a
- 26:08revolution oddly closely by by the changing morphology of a of a blastocyst to an
- 26:18embryo. H But again, it doesn't that mean men are more evolved than
- 26:25female on the scales she's prevent she's presenting. Females came first, but and
- 26:30males came second. Well, things that things evolve into tend to be somewhat
- 26:36more complex, at least in the brain region. Yeah, so, bit
- 26:41of a shot in the foot or just a random shot in the air which
- 26:45could land anywhere and may land in her own eye, as it should.
- 26:49Yeah, this is there seems to be a thing with and I've caught myself
- 26:56doing this too. When we get mad, we shut off part of our
- 27:00brain and we say stupid hit. But some of us are worse about it
- 27:06than others. Like if I get mad enough and I get past the point
- 27:11of stupid, then I get really mean and it's embarrassing later. So there's
- 27:15also that. But so she then writes, this one's another one. Marie
- 27:23Petty, leader of a secret ultra feminist movement that has sprung up throughout the
- 27:29British Isles, today, voiced this slogan of the new organization, A feminine
- 27:33war against the male sex is well underway to Great Britain. According to Elliot
- 27:38o' donald again, this guy actually had quite a bit under his belt.
- 27:45Ellie O'Donnell, who is the author of more than thirty books on psychic matters,
- 27:51which he's this isn't psychic as in New Age bullshit. Psychic was used
- 28:03to mean matters of the mind back then as well, so thoughts, beliefs,
- 28:10philosophies, ideas, blah blah blah. But nope, this is psychic
- 28:17the other way established a reputation is an investigator run as an investigator of haunted
- 28:23houses is Irish by birth, but in reality an American product for his family.
- 28:30Nettled in Baltimore, more than a century ago, and it's probably supposed
- 28:36to be he spent the early days of his youth on her ancient organ.
- 28:38Not ho but sometimes it in old newspapers. The way that the typeface is
- 28:48made, that would if you used in a program to read it and create
- 28:53the type for it, it will give you the wrong letter, because it's
- 28:57really weird and hard to read. For many years, or Donald has been
- 29:00looked upon as one of the leaders of those who are trying to lay the
- 29:03truth about things supernatural before the public. His adventure in investigating ghost stories and
- 29:12haunted places are widely read in England. But now he has given up his
- 29:15investigations of things supernatural to take up the investigation of the efforts of certain ultra
- 29:22feminists to bring about the downfall of man, probably because that's even more far
- 29:27out than the spiritualist movement was. He's chasing a different type of boogeyman.
- 29:36Yeah, it's kind of funny because at that point in time, like the
- 29:41spiritualist movement was, if I remember reading about it right, it was in
- 29:45full swing. People were having seances, Like in the seventies it was tupperware
- 29:52parties. In the twenties it was talking to dead people. I don't know
- 29:56what happened. People got really morbid, but in any case, yeah,
- 30:03so I guess the feminists were weirder than the dead people. This English investigator
- 30:10informed the International News Service that he's in possession of absolute evidence that ultra feminists
- 30:15are laying plans for a sex war in England, and he has no doubt
- 30:19that their organization extends to the United States. I am not making a hostile
- 30:26attack on women, o'donald said. For women as women, I have always
- 30:30had the greatest respect in admirations. See that goes all the way back to
- 30:34the early twentieth century. Right, they always have to do this. I'm
- 30:41not attacking women. I love women. I think women are wonderful. But
- 30:44these guys, these guys are assholes. These women are assholes. You shouldn't
- 30:48have to say not all women. If you're talking about bad behavior, women
- 30:53who are not involved in it, women who are not doing it, shouldn't
- 30:59feel targeted, shouldn't take it personally. I've always held. He says that
- 31:10it is only fair and right that women should enjoy the same privileges and advantages
- 31:15as men, So he's not even anti feminist. He just doesn't like those
- 31:21feminists. These are early ratfems. I am convinced, however, from my
- 31:27investigation that the cult of man hating is being fostered by a very definite organization
- 31:33in London, secret meetings from which men are rigidly banned or being held repeatedly,
- 31:40and the doctrine of male hatred is subtly but vigorously propunded. Again,
- 31:48this is feminism. I don't know how it fits the definition if they're supremaist.
- 31:57The chief aims and objects of the movement are in the field of politics
- 32:01and economics. The ultra feminists are particularly anxious to gain control over the police.
- 32:12So I read that part again. The ultra feminists are particularly anxious to
- 32:19gain control over the police. So that was nineteen twenty two right. And
- 32:23they fought for about three quarters of a century to gain control over the police.
- 32:34And they fought for They used domestic violence law, and they used sexual
- 32:39violence law, and lobbied for changes in custody, and lobbied for changes in
- 32:50the rights of women in divorce right. But domestic violence law and sexual violence
- 32:57law gave them a way to basically get feminist training in to police academies and
- 33:06to the all of the education that you have to obtain to work in the
- 33:15court system, including the education you have to obtain to be a judge.
- 33:20And over the years you had different different state laws that were passed and eventually
- 33:25federal laws. And in nineteen eighty four they got the Family Violence Victims Services
- 33:37let's see, it's Victims FVP. Say. I have to remember now,
- 33:42it's been a while since I've actually looked at it, with Family Violence Victims
- 33:45Services and Prevention Act or Prevention and Victim Services Act, and I can't remember
- 33:51which order that was in of nineteen eighty four past. And it created shelters,
- 33:58It created twenty four hour hotline. It funded it with government money,
- 34:02which means tax money that was taken from men, because mostly men that pay
- 34:08taxes. And from there they got mandatory arrest policies. And then they got,
- 34:17oh, but the mandatory arrest policies have to be gendered, because if
- 34:21they're not, you get an eight hundred percent increase in the arrests of women
- 34:28for perpetration of domestic violence. And then they got the Violence Against Women Act,
- 34:32which gendered all of it. They changed the definition of rape to expand
- 34:39it in a variety of ways and remove recognition of women's agency under a variety
- 34:46of circumstances. Right, And today police receive essentially DEI training that is mostly
- 35:00about serving women, and today the law kind of dictates what they have to
- 35:09do when they respond to a call for domestic violence or sexual violence. And
- 35:15if there's a sort of a conflict of stories between a man and a woman,
- 35:22they're obligated to believe the woman. So here we have it's one hundred
- 35:30years later, and definitely feminists have control over the police, even though they're
- 35:37the ones also saying defund the police. But they did gain control over the
- 35:43police. And I think the word for that is insurrection, is it not?
- 35:49Kind of if you do it slowly and subversively enough, it doesn't count
- 35:55as an insurrection, unlike some things that do. Yeah, I mean,
- 36:01yeah, I'm talking about what it's like in the United States. In the
- 36:07UK, it's illegal to be a misogynist. Basically, it's illegal to be
- 36:15accused of misogyny. It's even illegal to be accused of giving giving a woman
- 36:22the ick right if she thinks you might be a creep, then you're a
- 36:29misogynist. For making her think that, and you can get arrested. If
- 36:34you say something online that she doesn't like, you can get arrested. Feminists
- 36:39did get control over the police so that that they they succeeded in that plan.
- 36:45Hey, if if you do get arrested, you can pretend to be
- 36:49a woman when you get put in a woman's prison. So women are oppressed,
- 36:52do you see yep? So this goes on in the past history of
- 37:01the human race, sex hate and antagonisms have been the prelude to great national
- 37:09catastrophes. Oh I missed the line. If the cult of man hating goes
- 37:15on increasing until it gains ascendency, even were it possible to propagate the race
- 37:21without the assistance of the male, the end of the world would be assured.
- 37:24And he's right about that too, because as the family deteriorates, the
- 37:30quality of behavior that we get out of people who are deemed adults deteriorates,
- 37:37the workforce deteriorates, the culture becomes lawless, and you end up in an
- 37:45unlivable situation and it will collapse. But yeah, uh, in the past
- 37:57history, he says that I've to suggest that this nation would take heed lest
- 38:04a like fate befall it. There's nothing constructive in ultrafeminism. It is destructive
- 38:10from start to finish. O'Donnell declared there are three types as follows. A
- 38:17the type that apes the masculine, so basically butch feminists. And then two
- 38:25the anemic, fretful type of woman, which is pretty much the majority of
- 38:30feminists today, the ones that like freak out if they're walking down the street
- 38:36and there's also a man walking down the street somewhere in their vicinity, because
- 38:42if he's also walking down the street, he must be doing it because they're
- 38:45walking down the street. No man has ever walked down the street for any
- 38:50other reason than because there was a woman there that he wanted to follow,
- 38:53Right, those those are those women, right, And then he says three,
- 39:00the patently abnormal women. Those women tell us who they are today by
- 39:04dyeing their hair various shades of blue and green, which ironically is kind of
- 39:10normal. Yeah, they all look like they're trying to emulate peacocks badly.
- 39:21And there's more to this, Like this keeps going. Dissemination of the cult
- 39:25of the ultrafeminist is being accomplished by propaganda. O'Donnell charges, and then there
- 39:30is another image of another article London ultrafeminists seeking to sweep men from the earth,
- 39:39and you can see in this one this one has not been translated to
- 39:45text, but it's also not a great print, so I don't know if
- 39:49it could have been easily mere man is about to be swept off the face
- 39:54of the earth if ultrafeminists have their way. Elliott Elliott O'Donnell a there and
- 40:00investigator of this. Yeah, that's those letters are terrible distin I think that's
- 40:08a yeah, distinction. I don't know if that's an eergy, it's probably
- 40:14distinction. But in in form of International news service, the tenets of the
- 40:21ultra feminists who are organized two unthrown men are according to O'Donnell's follows, and
- 40:28then it gives those tenets again. So there's the image from that article.
- 40:34But yeah, this is this is basically the genesis in in at least the
- 40:39UK of what is today known as radical feminism. But radical feminism is the
- 40:46the origin of modern feminism. So feminists who claim that this kind of thing
- 40:57is not what feminism is about, theyre movement came from this there, it's
- 41:04not a different thing that went a different path. It is the start of
- 41:10the path that led to them. Meyredith g gave us five dollars and said,
- 41:17HBI talked three fourteen honey for the badgers. Super chows are always better
- 41:22than super chats. That is true. So having looked at this all right,
- 41:30we can see that there was definitely female supremacy in early feminism. It's
- 41:35not just a one off that that one feminist did that. There's a whole
- 41:38organization in the UK, whole secret organization influencing feminists in the UK in nineteen
- 41:45twenty two doing the same thing. So we'll look at this article is a
- 41:52little more frivolous. This is from twenty fourteen, by the way, so
- 41:54it's not a new article, but it's about very old feminists, so it
- 41:58doesn't have to be new because the quotes aren't going to change. This art.
- 42:05This site is called the Toast and it's it's not quite down to the
- 42:13level of BuzzFeed, but it can be sometimes, but it's often better than
- 42:17that. But the article is suffragettes who sucked white supremacy and women's rights.
- 42:27Well, that sounds totally like equality, don't you think. So what they've
- 42:32got is different quotes, and it's basically like the good, the person,
- 42:38the good, and then the uh oh. Suffragette Susan B. Anthony eighteen
- 42:45twenty to nineteen oh six social reformer, member of the Anti Slavery Society,
- 42:51President of the National American Women's Suffrage Association. Sounds good, so far right,
- 42:57and they're her, you know they're hooray is I think the girl who
- 43:02is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as
- 43:06happy as anyone anybody on earth. The sense of independence and security is very
- 43:12sweet. Sounds okay? Then there wait what mister Douglas talks about the wrongs
- 43:22of the negro But with all the outages that he today suffers, he would
- 43:30not exchange his sex and take the place of Elizabeth Katie Stanton. If I
- 43:37remember right, she was pretty wealthy. I think most people would have traded
- 43:39places with her, and I'm sure she has no idea what he suffered.
- 43:51Then we have Anna Shaw eighteen forty seven to nineteen nineteen physician, Methodist minister,
- 44:01president of the National Women's Suffrage Association, inspiration for an episode of thirty
- 44:07Rock, which I think was a TV show that aired in the nineties maybe,
- 44:15Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what it was. I think it was
- 44:19in two thousands. Yeah, Third Rock from the Sun was in the nineties,
- 44:22That's what I was thinking of. That's not right. Yeah, thirty
- 44:25Rock is the one with Tracy Morgan. Okay, that tells you a lot.
- 44:30I don't watch TV. I remember the titles of shows that people talked
- 44:35about a lot when different time periods happen, but I don't really. I
- 44:39haven't watched a lot of television shows that were made after like the mid nineties.
- 44:50In fact, I could watch Friends for the first time, the whole
- 44:53series for the first time. I think I've seen an episode here or there,
- 44:58but same Seinfeld. I've seen a couple of episodes familiar enough to be
- 45:02familiar with the characters. But I really didn't watch much TV. Yeah,
- 45:07I'm the same. Yeah. When I did, it was you know,
- 45:12they were so popular. Yeah, everybody was talking about it, but I
- 45:15just yeah, yeah, Actually no character names from shows that I never watched
- 45:21because people talk about them so much. But in any case, yeah,
- 45:28her hooray one is uh there we go around me. I saw women overworked
- 45:37and underpaid doing men's work at half men's wages not because their work was inferior,
- 45:42but because they were women. So that's an old line again, and
- 45:47women have believed this since at least the early twentieth century, if not before.
- 45:53They just assumed that if a woman and a man are doing they have
- 45:58the same job title, and they're doing the same things from the same list
- 46:04of tasks, that the woman's performance is on par with that of the man,
- 46:09which most of the time, you know, if there's any heaviness to
- 46:15the labor, that's not true. It's just not Oh wait, if you
- 46:22can barely carry half the weight of what a man can, why should you
- 46:28get paid the same? Yeah, yeah, you know. And well,
- 46:31and then the other thing is, like we've talked about this before, you
- 46:36know. I worked at the gas station that I worked at was it started
- 46:43out as just a convenience store and then they added pumps, right, so
- 46:47it was on a corner where it was really cramped. The convenience store was
- 46:53really small. It was never expected to be a food service his place or
- 47:00anything like that. And we all worked really hard to make it clean and
- 47:05nice so that we could sell food. But nobody worked harder than the guys.
- 47:09And when the truck would come in. You could see the difference,
- 47:16right, If the women were carrying one box, the men were carrying two,
- 47:21women were carrying two boxes, the men were carrying three. If it
- 47:25was cold or rainy or too hot outside, all of the going out to
- 47:31the shed to put boxes in the shed or going out to pick up boxes
- 47:37that were set outside from the truck, the guys did that. Right.
- 47:39If it had to get stocked in the cooler and there was a male and
- 47:44a female working, the guys did that because the cooler was thirty four degrees,
- 47:50which is apparently the ideal temperature for beer, at least according to American
- 47:57lore. So everybody else in the world, don't kill me for that,
- 48:00because I know there is some beer that is supposed to be served heated.
- 48:04But in any case, so like, there was all that, right,
- 48:07And then then if somebody got sick in the bathroom, most of the cashiers
- 48:15would leave it for the assistant manager because he was a man. They would
- 48:20leave it for the shift leader because he was a man. Right They oh,
- 48:23it's above my pay grade. Uh, And and I ended up cleaning
- 48:28it up a lot of times because I didn't want to leave it a whole
- 48:31weekend until a man came in to clean it up. Yeah, that's a
- 48:37good idea. It's incredibly hard when that shit dries out. Oh yeah,
- 48:43yeah. Well, and the other thing is stomach acid that you believe.
- 48:47You'd be amazed what stomach acid will eat through and what it does to the
- 48:53metal parts of your plumbing and stuff. It's not a good thing. Don't
- 48:58believe that's that's for somebody else to clean up. That's really nasty, right,
- 49:04So uh so, yeah, this holy quality thing is kind of it's
- 49:12in their heads, right, because they'll do stuff like that. But then
- 49:15they'll say, but we're doing the same job. Why are they getting paid
- 49:20more? Well, you know, when when was the last time you went
- 49:22in and cleaned up after Pucaso came and visited. So uh then then that
- 49:31that to me was a problematic statement, but to them was a hoorray,
- 49:36right, So what did they think was problematic? She says, you have
- 49:42put the ballot in the hands of your black men, your black men,
- 49:46like you own them now, I guess, uh, thus making them political
- 49:50superiors of white women. Never before in the history of the world have men
- 49:54made former slaves the political masters of their former mistresses. She seems upset.
- 50:02Yeah. Sorry, I just can't identify with this at all, Like,
- 50:10which one's fought in the war again, Was it the women or the men?
- 50:16Oh? My god? And I mean just to talk about it like
- 50:20that, making the men their masters because they got the vote again, Yeah,
- 50:30so I guess they were okay with white men being their masters before.
- 50:34Yeah, because they didn't start agitating for voting rights until like a hundred years
- 50:38after the country was was founded and formed. But of course there were some
- 50:49some states that came into the Union with women already voting, So I suppose
- 50:54the women in the Eastern States were pissed off about that too. But uh,
- 51:00yeah, then we have Suffragette. Suffragette Belle Kearney eighteen sixty three two
- 51:08nineteen thirty nine, orator, novelist, Mississippi state senator. Because women had
- 51:15no power and no influence. And she says, hooray for equal work.
- 51:23Yes, I say for hooray for equal work employers. Employers have a right
- 51:30to equal work for equal pay. Get to it, ladies. Their waight
- 51:37wet for her is really long. The enfranchisement of women would ensure immediate and
- 51:46durable white supremacy honestly attained for upon unquestioned authority. It is stated unquestioned authority.
- 51:55By the way, she didn't say who, just upon unquestioned authority.
- 52:00It's like saying everybody knows, right, everybody knows. It is stated that
- 52:06in every Southern state but one, there are more educated women than all the
- 52:13illiterate voters, black and white, native and foreign combined. As you probably
- 52:20know, all of the women in the South who can read and write,
- 52:22ten out of every eleven are white. When it comes to proportion and propriety
- 52:28between the races, that of the white outweighs that of the black immeasurably.
- 52:32That's that's a suffragette people. That's that's that's you're it's about equality people.
- 52:42That's that's a suffragette. So I don't want to hear that we've been unfair
- 52:50to feminists. Feminism is about equality, because these guys were not about equality.
- 52:57They were about me, me, me. They were also criminals.
- 53:07So all right, this one I don't have an alternate thing for. So
- 53:13I'm going to mess with the size of the screen here or the size of
- 53:17the tab. Let's see if I can. And I'm gonna have to move
- 53:22it because of how this works. So hang on a second here, because
- 53:29it has this this thing, it Google does this, and I might be
- 53:38able to Actually there we go. So this is again ancient article. Suffragette
- 53:53using whip on doctor is knocked down. Now, if a man approached another
- 54:00man on the street with a bull whip and started attempting to whip him with
- 54:07it, one would expect a fight would break out, right, You would
- 54:10expect normally that how men would treat each other would be that a man would
- 54:19fight back if he was attacked with a weapon like that. Right, Most
- 54:23of the guys I know would. They might try to grab the whip.
- 54:27They might clock the other guy, try to knock him out, make him
- 54:30stop. They would do something. They wouldn't just stand there and take it.
- 54:35So this pro equality feminist obviously would have expected that, right. So
- 54:45the article says, Glasgow, March sixteenth, rushing upon doctor James Devon,
- 54:53Royal Prison Commissioner, a militant suffragette horsewhipt him today. Okay, not a
- 55:00bullet horsewhip, but just as painful. I would imagine as as Devon was
- 55:07entering the Duke Street prison as the woman applied the lashes. Doctor Devon threw
- 55:13up his hands for an instant to protect himself, but as the attack was
- 55:16continued, he did not emulate the example of and this is this is a
- 55:21thing in the article that really caught my attention, the example of Premier.
- 55:25I believe that's Asquith and others who have been attacked. So this was not
- 55:32a one off, right, This was a regular behavior of suffragettes chasing men
- 55:38down in the street and horsewhipping them. Like how many guys do that?
- 55:45Just get mad as at somebody politically and decide they're going to chase a man
- 55:50down in the street and horsewhip him and not expect any consequences. Let's see.
- 56:00Whoops. And that's one thing I hate about this is it moves fast
- 56:05if I'm not careful, all right, and others who had been attacked.
- 56:12Devin got into the action himself. After a few cutting blows had landed,
- 56:16the prison commissioner knocked the woman down, screaming protests. The suffragette was arrested
- 56:24and detained in a prison for a time. On being released, she declared
- 56:29the attack was made on Devin because of his advocacy of forcible feeding which they
- 56:35were doing hunger strikes when they would get jailed for bombing things and being generally
- 56:40unruly in public, and then the British authorities were force feeding them. They'd
- 56:52had two put down their throat and poured a mixture of milk and some other
- 56:57things that would be like the early twentieth century equivalent of like today's Boost and
- 57:07Insure and other nutritional drinks for people that aren't eating. And of course that
- 57:14thwarted the well. I'll starve myself to death and then you'll look bad.
- 57:19But in any case, they still looked bad for it. But so this
- 57:24woman decided that since this man advocated for something that she felt was unfair,
- 57:30she would horsewhip him in the street. So then it finishes up. London,
- 57:37March sixteen. The reign of terror instituted by militant Suffragettes following the recent
- 57:43arrest of Miss Emmeline Pankhurst, was directed toward the railroads. Today suffragettes swooped
- 57:49down upon the railroad yards at King's Norton and it continues this, it doesn't
- 57:58actually, yeah, it has the whole thing. Okay, it wasn't on
- 58:04the I had a archive I S version of it, But it only gave
- 58:09that little square Birmingham and burned six passenger cars standing on a siding. Three
- 58:17others were badly damaged. Now again, if they're for equality, do they
- 58:23want to be treated the same way that men are treated when men do things
- 58:28like that? How many? How much do you want to beat that they
- 58:36protested against the arrests and imprisonment that they would experience for crimes like that.
- 58:45With a new wave of militancy assuming assuming greater proportions daily, some action was
- 58:51expected to be taken as a result of a letter received by the Dean of
- 58:54Westminster from Sylvia Pankhurst declaring that East London Suffrage will march to the abbey next
- 59:01Sunday and attend the evening service. This pinker said that she would be present
- 59:07and asked that special services beheld. But it was feared today that the famous
- 59:13Burne Jones Widow in Birmingham Cathedral window in Birmingham Cathedral is permanently marred as a
- 59:22result of the suffragette raid yesterday, the words votes for Women were printed across
- 59:28the window. The floors, pews and pulpit of the cathedral were disfigured by
- 59:34the women and that's the end of the story. So they actually vandalized a
- 59:38church. So now we're looking at not only did they attack men in the
- 59:42street, but they also engaged in church vandalism. And then I have another
- 59:51one, and see that's not it. There, that's the one. Okay,
- 1:00:01dang it. There we go bringing it down. I think that might
- 1:00:10be as far as I can bring it down. So now I have to
- 1:00:14bring this down. And what it says in here miss miss Pankhurst admits bomb
- 1:00:22deal and I'm gonna have to increase the size of this if it lets me.
- 1:00:30There we go. It's in order to actually be able to read it,
- 1:00:36you need to use two fingers to actually move it. There we go.
- 1:00:43All right, So this is London, February twenty two. Miss Emmeline
- 1:00:49Pankhursts assumption of full responsibility for the explosion at David Lloyd George's country residence and
- 1:00:57her confession that she conspired with and in cited her followers to carry out the
- 1:01:01scheme are being seized by the authorities as grounds for hot prosecution. Already legal
- 1:01:10steps have been taken for bringing a criminal charge against her. Six Suffragette windows
- 1:01:15smashers were today sentenced to six months each. All pledged themselves to carry on
- 1:01:21the strike, so when they went to jail, they didn't just go to
- 1:01:27jail for protesting like feminists will tell us that these women went to jail just
- 1:01:31for protesting and then they engaged in hunger strikes and they were force fed.
- 1:01:37No, they went to jail for busting out windows, bombing churches, vandalizing
- 1:01:42churches, attacking men in the street. At one point, they tried to
- 1:01:45kill a member of Parliament by pushing him off a cliff. They were particularly
- 1:01:52violent, they were not they were terrorists like today they would be referred to
- 1:01:58as terrorists, and today they referred to as the summer of love. Oh
- 1:02:06yeah, summer of love. That's true because they're on the right side of
- 1:02:09history. Can you imagine if Tommy Robinson did any of that stuff, they
- 1:02:15wouldn't even give him a trial, to bury him under the jay. Oh
- 1:02:19yeah. Everything that the people get accused of nowadays was being done and worse
- 1:02:29by d years ago. Yep. The one where they tried to push a
- 1:02:37member of Parliament off of a cliff really freaked me out. When I read
- 1:02:42that. I was just like, they just approached this guy and tried to
- 1:02:45kill him, just right out out in public. Of course, today it
- 1:02:51would be a lot more difficult, because today members of Congress and probably members
- 1:02:59of parlat Parliament are a little more careful where they go and how open they
- 1:03:02leave themselves to attack, because people have been violent quite a while. But
- 1:03:12yeah, I just just imagine, you know, you're just expecting to go
- 1:03:15someplace and do stuff and a couple of women approach you, and of course
- 1:03:22I'm sure that he probably thought they were harmless unless he knew who they were,
- 1:03:29and then suddenly they're trying to push you off of a cliff to your
- 1:03:32death. That's crazy, Miss missus Pankhurst, I keep saying. Miss Pankhurst
- 1:03:42was her married name. Met a mixed reception at a meeting last night in
- 1:03:46Chelsea. When she appeared, she was greeted with groans, hisses, yells
- 1:03:53and cheering, and only the presence of the police prevented a hostile section of
- 1:04:01the audience from attacking her. She declared, despite her threatened trouble, that
- 1:04:06the the short that short of taking human life, the militant Suffragettes intended to
- 1:04:12do everything possible, and it wasn't short of taking human life obviously, and
- 1:04:19intended to do everything possible to settle once and for all the political status of
- 1:04:25English women. How to deal with the militant suffragettes is a problem discussed anxiously
- 1:04:34by the public, and the newspapers are devoting many columns to it. According
- 1:04:41to the Standard, the latest plan of the militants is to kidnap the cabinet
- 1:04:46ministers. The police are shadowing ministers now, so they actually put the police
- 1:04:53in a situation where they had to pay all of their attention to cabinet ministers.
- 1:05:03The police are shadowing them, so serious thinking public men have suggested that
- 1:05:09the women who are arrested and go on hunger strikes be left to starve rather
- 1:05:15than permitted to defy or evade the laws with impunity. So they're actually they
- 1:05:20were to the point. I don't think that this actually got women the vote.
- 1:05:25I don't think this had any influence on getting women to vote. In
- 1:05:29fact, I think that if it hadn't been for men fighting in at the
- 1:05:36time it was just called the Great War, but in World War One and
- 1:05:41earning the right for commoners to vote, I don't think that women would have
- 1:05:46been given the right to vote in the UK because they made themselves such a
- 1:05:53nuisance that it couldn't be rewarded by lawmakers with out encouraging people to use making
- 1:06:01themselves a nuisance, and a dangerous nuisance at that, to get what they
- 1:06:09wanted from from politicians, Like that's the worst way to respond to that is
- 1:06:15to give them what they want. And finally, I wasn't sure we would
- 1:06:21get through all these but we are going to because it's only eight o eight,
- 1:06:26so we got time for this. We're not gonna dwell on this too
- 1:06:30much. This is from the I want to say, the University of Yeah,
- 1:06:41all Many, all Many university. So it doesn't say who the author
- 1:06:45is, But this is about Elizabeth Katie Stanton again. Daughter of a judge,
- 1:06:50Elizabeth Katie Stanton had a keen interest in the law. In her youth.
- 1:06:55She began reading law books and enjoyed debates with her father's law students.
- 1:06:59This all sounds good, so far right. These experiences further developed her analytical
- 1:07:03mind in her rhetorical skills. Elizabeth's life was a lifelong project to define.
- 1:07:10I think this is written by a student because I wouldn't put life twice in
- 1:07:14the same sentence like that to define and correct the problems women faced. According
- 1:07:18to historians Ellen Carroll Dubois and Richard Candida, not to it just blows my
- 1:07:28mind. Candida is actually the name of the yeast and yeast infections. But
- 1:07:36anyway, Initially she turned her attention to the legal system, which codified the
- 1:07:45subjugation of women. She understood that women and men could not change their legal
- 1:07:48status if they lacked the right to vote, and she worked hard and ultimately
- 1:07:53successfully or unsuccessfully for the cause of universal suffrage. Get to the butt,
- 1:08:00and this one has a big butt. There we go a rift. Any
- 1:08:08abolitionist and suffrage movements developed over that cause. Many reformers took a pragmatic approach
- 1:08:15to suffrage, believing that male suffrage, especially for black men, should be
- 1:08:18the first priority, which makes sense because male suffrage was already accepted, right,
- 1:08:30even if it was only white men originally, it was still male suffrage
- 1:08:33was already accepted. So and it was accepted on a very specific basis that
- 1:08:40we've been studying now for two months. So everybody should be able to tell
- 1:08:43me what that basis was like. Anybody in the chat should be able to
- 1:08:50type it, right, in and of course my two co hosts will remember
- 1:08:59it was just leaving a pregnant polls. No, no, no, no,
- 1:09:02there will be no pregnancy here. You guys know that. I'm like
- 1:09:10about to turn fifty three, Like I'm completely done with that. Not gonna
- 1:09:15happen, not even pregnant. Pause. So, at no point did women
- 1:09:26ever face conscription in the history of the United States, At no point none.
- 1:09:35Women did help out in the Revolutionary War. They did not do what
- 1:09:40the men did. They were able to contribute, And so there's no excuse
- 1:09:45for why women shouldn't face some form of conscription, because there is stuff women
- 1:09:53can do, but never have win and faced conscription in the history of the
- 1:10:03United States. I don't know that the UK has ever conscripted women either.
- 1:10:09We almost did, but we didn't do it. You doubt it, huh.
- 1:10:15I kind of doubt it too, because it doesn't seem like something that
- 1:10:18the UK would do. But yeah, activities in expectation of duty. Oh,
- 1:10:29Candida is also an Italian surname, meaning white. That's interesting. But
- 1:10:34yeah, military subscription, military conscription, fighting in battle, to create those
- 1:10:44rights, to expand those rights, to preserve those rights. That's been the
- 1:10:49history of it. Eight hundred years of men's military service, eight hundred years
- 1:10:57of obligation and duty and blood being attached to men's voting rights is the reason
- 1:11:05why men's voting rights were accepted right, and the reason that voting rights for
- 1:11:14black men in America were being considered at the time that feminists were protesting that
- 1:11:19men were getting their rights first was because men black men fought and bled and
- 1:11:28died for their freedom during the Civil War. That's why it wasn't because oh
- 1:11:39gosh, they're they're free now, so we should we should just give them
- 1:11:42voting rights. It was because their service was respected. Let's see, Uh
- 1:12:04tell him. Nar says he sent a super chow, but it's not showing.
- 1:12:15Are you sure it went through? This is I don't see it.
- 1:12:23I mean, I'm gonna go out and back into that chat and see if
- 1:12:27I see it that way. Nope, still no superchow. What the heck?
- 1:12:35Okay, tell him now, you'll have to either send it again or
- 1:12:42message me or just type it in the rumble chat and I'll read it off
- 1:12:50when I see it. Right. But yeah, women, women did not.
- 1:12:54Now that's not to say that there weren't any services that women did during
- 1:12:58the Civil War. There were men who worked in military hospitals. There were
- 1:13:01women who did the same things that women did during the Revolutionary War, which
- 1:13:08mostly was if they weren't working in military hospitals, they were sewing and repairing
- 1:13:15uniforms, they were cleaning uniforms, they were cooking, they did domestic duties.
- 1:13:21Right, they were not in uniform. They did not fight battles.
- 1:13:26They did not. They might have carried guns, but they didn't carry guns
- 1:13:30the way that men carried guns. And there were boys in the military during
- 1:13:35the Civil War doing the same things that boys did in the military during the
- 1:13:41Revolutionary War. So there were there were buglers, there were drummers. There
- 1:13:45were boys carrying flags and they were targets. There were boys carrying messages and
- 1:13:51they were targets. So this was this was again men and boys fighting and
- 1:14:00women gaining right. So the rift. Many reformers took a pragmatic approach to
- 1:14:11suffrage, believing that male suffrage, especially for black men, should be the
- 1:14:15first priority. Elizabeth disagreed so violently that she opposed the passage of the fourteenth
- 1:14:19and fifteenth Amendments to the US Constitution. So Elizabeth Katie Stanton, who is
- 1:14:30a celebrated and much loved beloved by feminists. Suffragette opposed the fifteenth Amendment that
- 1:14:42gave black men the right to vote and the fourteenth Amendment that secures your right
- 1:14:47to due process, equal treatment under the law. Right, that's the amendment
- 1:14:58that she opposed. So, yeah, equality, but not if it means
- 1:15:09that black men got the right to vote before white women. In her outrage,
- 1:15:14she revealed racist and bigoted aspects of her thinking. She resented deeply the
- 1:15:18fact that the law gave black men, male immigrants, and men of the
- 1:15:23lower orders, so poor men, men who didn't make as much money as
- 1:15:29her husband or her father, had the right to vote, but women were
- 1:15:36expected to wait. Her rhetoric incorporated I don't know if I am gonna get
- 1:15:42in trouble for this. I'm not going to read that part out loud.
- 1:15:47It's but her rhetoric incorporated racial slurs, and consequently she alienated many of her
- 1:15:58formerly ardent support, including Frederick Douglas. Elizabeth knew that the law and okay,
- 1:16:09there it is. Elizabeth knew that the law kept black women disenfranchised as
- 1:16:13well, but she failed to form alliances with black women suffragists. Their suffragists
- 1:16:18influenced by social Darwinism and nativist sentiments, She then advocated educated suffrage, in
- 1:16:28which in effect, would reserve the franchise for illiterate white men and women of
- 1:16:33the middle and upper classes, so poor people wouldn't have the right to vote.
- 1:16:39Elizabeth Susan B. Anthony and other women suffragists tried a new legal strategy
- 1:16:45they called the new departure. They argued that by its very nature, citizenship
- 1:16:51conferred the right to vote on men and women alike. Their strategy was to
- 1:16:59bring the you before the courts. Women would violate the law by voting illegally
- 1:17:03be arrested in them file suit. Anthony voted in eighteen seventy two in the
- 1:17:11eighteen seventy two election, and the following year was brought to trial, found
- 1:17:16guilty, and fined. A Missouri woman, Virginia Minor, was the plaintiff,
- 1:17:23and a famous eighteen seventy four US Supreme Court case, Minor versus half
- 1:17:27per Set, which set back women's suffrage for generations. Now I think they're
- 1:17:32right again. I think this is written by a student. I would say
- 1:17:35maybe decades because generations would be a long, much longer time. And the
- 1:17:43Nineteenth Amendment was ratified. It passed in nineteen twenty, So that's not generations,
- 1:17:51it's about fifty years, a little less like forty six two generations.
- 1:17:59Ye, generations. It also had major negative consequences for newly enfranchised black men
- 1:18:06and for the civil rights of all citizens. So there we go. Now
- 1:18:13I got to raise this up because I've hit the bottom of the page.
- 1:18:16Oops, I just locked the window I was trying to unlock. There we
- 1:18:20go. During the post Civil War years, Elizabeth Katie Stanton increasingly turned her
- 1:18:28attention to issues that went beyond the cause of women's suffrage. By this time,
- 1:18:31she was convinced that an unjust legal system only reflected deeper and more entrenched
- 1:18:36problems. She devoted the last twenty years of her life to studying, lecturing,
- 1:18:41and writing about religion as a root cause of women's inequality in marriage and
- 1:18:45before the law. So if you wonder why the church is so guynescentric today,
- 1:18:51can look a look at early twentieth century feminists. Someone who got here
- 1:19:00we have we have feminists that were female supremacists who thought that men were an
- 1:19:10afterthought and should be eliminated. We had feminists who were white supremacists who were
- 1:19:16upset that black people got the vote before, that black men got the vote
- 1:19:20before white women, and who used racial slurs and said nasty things about them.
- 1:19:29And then we have feminists who were violent, who engaged in criminal actions
- 1:19:35that they thought they shouldn't have to suffer the consequences a man would suffer for
- 1:19:41doing the same thing, and who bombed churches who I didn't pull up the
- 1:19:48church bombing article that I pulled up the vandalism article, but there was,
- 1:19:56and I actually have it linked here. I think see there are several of
- 1:20:04these. I have an article called Suffragettes Can't Save Feminism and there we go
- 1:20:17a follow up called Suffragettes still Can't Save Feminism? That have these links.
- 1:20:26Yeah, this one was titled expect bombs next, says suffragette. You can
- 1:20:31sort of see that at the bottom here. Mary Lay, who broke Prime
- 1:20:38Minister Asquith's windows, warns the magistrate expect bombs next. So that was the
- 1:20:46bomb threat. Then we have if it's loaded, if it loads up?
- 1:20:51Oh, come on, there we go. I'm not sure which one here.
- 1:21:00This one's from nineteen fourteen, and while that's coming up, we'll look
- 1:21:06at the other one. This one's also from nineteen fourteen. Militants are added
- 1:21:12again with acid, bombs, stones, and bags of flour. Now the
- 1:21:16significance of bags of flour is whether or not they threw them at the same
- 1:21:20time as the bombs, because flower. I learned this the hard way.
- 1:21:27Flower will explode. So one day when I was living with a friend who
- 1:21:33had a gas stove, and I grew up with an electric stove. My
- 1:21:39grandmother had a gas stove, so I used one a few times. So
- 1:21:41I thought, oh, yeah, I know everything about this, right,
- 1:21:44And I was cooking something and I was making gravy with broth from it,
- 1:21:48and I dropped the bag of flour on the floor and it didn't break,
- 1:21:56but a poof of it went up in the air, and it was just
- 1:22:00it spread out, you know, like a poof does. And as soon
- 1:22:04as it spread out, one little bit of it came into contact with the
- 1:22:10flame on the oven, and I actually had a little fireball in my face,
- 1:22:15like it blew up, It singed my eyebrows. It was bad.
- 1:22:21And that was probably a cup maybe of flower, maybe less. So if
- 1:22:28they were bombing things, and there was fire and then they were throwing bags
- 1:22:30of flour into it. That that can create a huge fireball and it's intimidating.
- 1:22:38It might not necessarily do a lot of damage, but it definitely would
- 1:22:46scare the shit out of people and could start fires that would be bigger than
- 1:22:51the fire that was already taking place. Right. But but yeah, so
- 1:23:02this was uh this, I'm not gonna read the whole thing, but they
- 1:23:08flung bags of flower and stones at councilors. And also bags of flower are
- 1:23:15heavy, so if you get a bag of flower thrown at you, it's
- 1:23:19gonna hit you like a five pound rock. And then then or or bigger,
- 1:23:27depending on how big the bags were that they threw. And then it
- 1:23:30when it blows up, it gets into your nose and your mouth and everything,
- 1:23:35and it's gonna make you feel like you're suffocating because you're breathing all that
- 1:23:39in. So that's that's really horrible. Why won't this actually show it was
- 1:23:46showing earlier? Come on page load? Yeah, that's great, let me
- 1:23:57try again. I wonder what's blockingness? Okay, now it's loading up.
- 1:24:10Okay. So then we had yeah, threatening to bomb the police and the
- 1:24:17courts. This is still not the church bombing. This might be it.
- 1:24:27No, that's not it. I don't know if I opened that one or
- 1:24:36not. In any case, there was an article in which a feminist stated
- 1:24:47that her only regret was that the bomb didn't go off, like she'd tried
- 1:24:55to bomb a church and the bomb fizzled. I don't maybe it was poorly
- 1:25:00made or something, but it didn't go off. And since it didn't go
- 1:25:06off, and you know, the damage that she had intended wasn't done,
- 1:25:12that would be bombing attempt maybe. And and she was defiant in court when
- 1:25:20she said that. She was like, yeah, my only regret is that
- 1:25:24it didn't go off. There it is. It's in that's why it didn't
- 1:25:30show. It's in my uh my Google docs. There we go, Come
- 1:25:39on, there we go. In the meantime, let's see tell them tell
- 1:25:46him. NAR's super Chow came up. Says he gave us twenty dollars and
- 1:25:51said, regarding your sarcasm about women having no formal power before feminism, feminists
- 1:25:58tend to believe that also societies before the US and the nineteen sixties were all
- 1:26:02traditional, which meant they were all identical with regard to the status of all
- 1:26:08women, and I'm assuming you mean Western tradition too, such as not allowing
- 1:26:14them to hold any position of influence or owned property or work or divorce,
- 1:26:17etc. Of course, this is ridiculous. Nineteenth century France is pretty different
- 1:26:23from ancient Greece, which in turn is different from the Chin dynasty. Thanks
- 1:26:29for telling me how to pronounce it. However, they will also happily not
- 1:26:36believe this was the moment it makes women look powerful, citing examples of female
- 1:26:43rulers or business owners, et cetera. It is ridiculous that they do not
- 1:26:47see that their dismissal of all societies prior to the anglosphere in the nineteen sixties
- 1:26:51is traditional. Is like a religious fundamentalist categorizing every culture other than his own
- 1:26:57is heathen and there for both inferior, changeable with all others. You know.
- 1:27:01The other thing it gets me about that is feminists take credit for all
- 1:27:06of the things that they consider advancements for women throughout history. Right. Oh,
- 1:27:14by the way, I just wanted you guys to know Google has this
- 1:27:19flaggs abuse, This this news article flagg is abuse, just so you know.
- 1:27:29But yeah, they women had no power and no influence, and yet
- 1:27:33women deserve credit for all of those changes that took place. That's cognitive dissonance
- 1:27:41right there. Noba Fan twenty one gave us a dollar and said, I
- 1:27:45remember being told most women didn't support Gloria Steinem Despite today's result, I'm wondering
- 1:27:51if history is repeating itself. Yes, yes, history is repeating itself.
- 1:28:03This was never a majority thing. There were never a majority of women.
- 1:28:08Now, why won't it come up? All right? I know where the
- 1:28:15article is. It's down here, I believe, yeah, right there,
- 1:28:29Women's only your gat. Okay, the focus on this sucks, but we'll
- 1:28:43try to We're not going to try to read the whole thing. There we
- 1:28:45go. It's much better, Okay, Women's only. Woman's only regret was
- 1:28:49over her failure, London, July thirteen. I don't want to copy it.
- 1:29:00When Annie Bell, the militant suffragette, was arraigned today for trying yesterday
- 1:29:08to destroy Archdeacon Wilberforce's famous old Church of Saint John Evangelist Westminster with a bomb,
- 1:29:16she said, the only thing I regret is that, honestly, that
- 1:29:21beastly thing didn't go off. The prisoner expressed intense pride in her act.
- 1:29:29She congratulated the woman worshiper who detected her setting fire to the fuse attached to
- 1:29:35a can of gunpowder. Oh God, that would have been an absolute disaster,
- 1:29:45and said her smartness was worthy of a better cause. She advised her
- 1:29:50to become a militant suffragette. I meant the bomb to go off and blow
- 1:30:00up the church, right enough, said miss Bell. The prisoner then stretched
- 1:30:05herself at full length on the seat in the prisoner's enclosure and asked the woman
- 1:30:14warden to give her a pillow and wake her when the case had concluded.
- 1:30:19Bye bye, you paid bully, was Miss Bell's farewell to the magistrate when
- 1:30:24he remanded her. So she was a bit about it. Yes, smart
- 1:30:32mouthing for somebody who's so apprised. Yep. I partly love having this article
- 1:30:41just because like this, this is this is our history. This is what
- 1:30:45feminist are made of, right, This is the Suffragettes at their finest.
- 1:30:51She bombed a church. She castigated a woman for disagreeing with her. She
- 1:30:58mouthed off to the court. She was not just bitchy about it, but
- 1:31:04but cocky about it. And fully admitted, you know, her criminality.
- 1:31:11She didn't really have any fear of the consequences at all. She didn't Yeah,
- 1:31:19nothing to lose as a fur wife who says, so yeah, Boss
- 1:31:25Beach, and that that is the history that people don't like to talk about.
- 1:31:32That's Google deemed having this article abuse. I can't say that enough.
- 1:31:41Actually, just am my mind was blown by that. I when I saw
- 1:31:45the red flag on it last night and I left that comment on it.
- 1:31:47I mean, it's it's my Google drive that that's on. But and I've
- 1:31:54appealed because like, and I don't even know how the hell it got flagged
- 1:31:59because the only people who can see it are me and another honey badger that
- 1:32:03that can see what's in this folder, and neither one of us would have
- 1:32:10flagged it. So I think this was algorithm flagged. M hmm. But
- 1:32:19uh, but yeah, I can't. I can't see where the evidence is
- 1:32:25that we have misrepresented feminists here. Do you guys see any evidence that we
- 1:32:30misrepresented feminists last week? No? I did not definitely known Mike stepped outside
- 1:32:38though. Okay, well, if our if our critic wants to contact me
- 1:32:43again and you know, explain exactly what parts of this didn't really happen.
- 1:32:50I would be very interested to know, yeah, because, uh, from
- 1:32:58my perspective here we kind of covered the bases, So I don't know,
- 1:33:06I think, what do you think, Lauren? No, I was disagreeing
- 1:33:12with you? These these women were nasty like that the whole idea of the
- 1:33:17nasty woman everybody always thinks that that's, you know, was invented by modern
- 1:33:24feminists with with the Trump campaign and their uh trump derangements and drum and everything.
- 1:33:32These women were worse mm hmm. And I can you imagine what these
- 1:33:39women would do if they encountered a group of intersectional equity feminists today? Oh
- 1:33:51yeah, they beat the ship out of them. They wouldn't just be horse
- 1:33:55whipping men in the street. Can you imagine the language jesup? Imagine them
- 1:34:08running into the intersectional equity feminist lgbt Q activists, the ones that are supporting,
- 1:34:21uh, you know, all of the gender gender ideology, the gender
- 1:34:28transitioning ideology and all of that in schools and and erasing the gender line between
- 1:34:36sports and so on. I think I think that heads would roll, yeah,
- 1:34:45because look what's happening, Like men are now becoming women. The everything
- 1:34:50that you, you know, wanted to separate yourself from, they're now becoming
- 1:34:57you. They're taking over your space. Yeah. I wonder how much.
- 1:35:03I wonder how much they would disagree with it. I wonder how much they
- 1:35:06would be like, well, this is the only thing that men can do
- 1:35:09now. Yeah, they might enjoy the idea of the genital mutilation. Yeah,
- 1:35:17they might enjoy the idea of this being the way that the male sex
- 1:35:21gets erased. M h like might maybe maybe that ideology came out of radical
- 1:35:29feminism after all. So but with that, I think we have pretty much
- 1:35:41wiped the floor with that allegation, like we we did not misrepresent feminism.
- 1:35:45We read a feminist writing, and we have read the behavior of several other
- 1:35:50feminists. So h yeah, I I I don't expect to hear back again,
- 1:35:57but I will be interested to see if I'm contacted again, because the
- 1:36:04the scathing you have misrepresented feminists and and and you you don't deserve your voting
- 1:36:13rights. And you know, I did post a meme on Twitter quite a
- 1:36:18bit recently. That's an almost two minute video explaining why women shouldn't vote.
- 1:36:25But have you seen it? I guess yes you were. Ye watched it
- 1:36:34right before the show the weeks yeah, or I think I did it after
- 1:36:39show before I published it, showing what it was what I was going to
- 1:36:45put up. But in any case, yeah, so there we go.
- 1:36:50So thanks you guys for everybody's saying you're really quiet. It's not looking really
- 1:36:56quiet in my like I've even got her turn up. That's that's weird.
- 1:37:01It's really echoe in here, spacious. That's probably why there are several settings
- 1:37:09on this experiment. Oh yeah, that can be kind of a pain in
- 1:37:13the ass. It's not what we're supposed to keep your yetty either, but
- 1:37:18and that that would definitely make it stink in the morning. But uh yeah,
- 1:37:28the auto audio mixer, it's not automatic, but the audio mixer in
- 1:37:33OBS, it looks like their sound is as loud as mine. And it's
- 1:37:41hard to tell because, uh, it's going first through mine is going through
- 1:37:48my headset directly to OBS. Theirs is coming through the desktop, which means
- 1:37:58it's coming through Discord, and then I'm hearing it in my headphones and I'm
- 1:38:03seeing visually how it plays through OBS, and OBS makes it look like the
- 1:38:12volume is the same for all of us, so it's kind of hard for
- 1:38:17me to adjust if one is louder than the other because I can't hear a
- 1:38:24difference, and I can't see a difference, so that it kind of sucks
- 1:38:31because like I can only judge. I know that when it goes, when
- 1:38:36the representation of the sound wave gets out of the green and into the yellow,
- 1:38:44it's kind of getting close to clipping, and when it gets to red,
- 1:38:47it is clipping. So I try to avoid getting into the red.
- 1:38:53Mine's been in the yellow the whole time, so it's almost but not quite
- 1:38:57clipping, and theirs has been like at the top of the green and into
- 1:39:01the yellow the whole time. And I don't I don't know another way that
- 1:39:06I am savvy enough tech savvy enough to use properly to do this, so
- 1:39:15and and I don't have the practice at this point to do something more complicated,
- 1:39:23So I don't know. I'll I'll do my best with it. But
- 1:39:30unfortunately the show might have this problem for a while if if OBS isn't regulating
- 1:39:38the sound, So sorry, guys. Until I figure out why it doesn't
- 1:39:45look the same as it sounds, I don't know what to uh, what
- 1:39:49to do about it, so but in any case, thanks for bearing with
- 1:39:59us. If the sound has been that difficult to listen to, it seems
- 1:40:02like everybody has remained and continue to listen anyway. And thanks to my two
- 1:40:09co host for going through all. Some of that was really nasty stuff to
- 1:40:12go through too, wasn't it. And thanks to everybody who works in the
- 1:40:16background to make HBr Talk happen. In goodnight all, We will see you
- 1:40:25next Thursday. Actually, we will see you next Tuesday, because Tuesday is
- 1:40:29the day that I'm going to be doing the show. We're switching because my
- 1:40:34daughter, the candy Scientist that's her title, has a grand opening for a
- 1:40:41business that she's she's working with and I am going to be out of state
- 1:40:45on Thursday, So there I get to brag and with that, good night
- 1:40:53All, See you next Tuesday.
