  Michael Schellenberger, this is scary. Yesterday, a group of people in Scotland
• 0:07
  protested a new hate speech law. Quote the irony of this hateful, spiteful
• 0:12
  law coming into play on April's Fool's Day, said one of the protesters.
• 0:15
  Criminalizing free speech in this country is absolutely disgraceful. But it really is so
• 0:20
  far reaching that it literally means anything. You could just be having a conversation
• 0:25
  in your house and somebody hear of it secondhand and then report you and you
• 0:31
  could go to prison for up to seven years. But let's hear what Michael
• 0:35
  Shellenberger. He's on a roll these days, after the the w Path files,
• 0:39
  which I also made a video about. So if you're not subscribed to
• 0:41
  my channel, subscribe and you can check out all these great videos. They're
• 0:44
  going to be very informative for you and you'd be a much better person because
• 0:47
  of it. So that's the other thing he's done, and before that it
• 0:51
  was the Twitter files. So this guy's been on a roll. Let's check
• 0:54
  this one out. Yesterday, a group of people in Scotland protested a new
• 0:58
  hate speech law. All this hateful, spiteful, hate king law coming into
• 1:04
  play on April filzy, you couldn't make this up or the niece's traditional practical
• 1:11
  joke, d homes are useless. I'm friends along with free Scortland and full
• 1:18
  search at raccooning your law criminalizing free speech in this coumpty as absolutely disgraceful.
• 1:25
  While I was happy to see the protest, I am deeply alarmed that the
• 1:29
  Scottish government passed this law in the first place. JK. Rowling rightly noted
• 1:33
  on Acts that the law gives the government the power to arrest people who refuse
• 1:37
  to call even male rapists and murderers women or she and her if that's what
• 1:42
  those men demand. The Hate Crime and Public Order Act of twenty twenty one
• 1:47
  creates a new crime for quote stirring up hatred, including related to transidentity.
• 1:52
  So transgender identity is written specifically into this bill, and so you have to
• 1:57
  wonder does this bill make biology class illegal? Is speaking the truth a crime
• 2:05
  of conscience in Scotland now? And obviously this will be used to punish anybody
• 2:09
  who goes against any woke Orthodoxy. People can even be arrested for things they
• 2:15
  say in the privacy of their own home. You can be arrested for being
• 2:19
  simply insulting. Prosecutors need to only prove your strain up of hatred was likely
• 2:23
  not even intended. Now you might think that this has nothing to do with
• 2:27
  you. You don't live in Scotland, you may not even live in Europe,
• 2:30
  but it has everything to do with you. What you say online could
• 2:34
  be held as criminal hate speech in Scotland simply by fact of somebody there reading
• 2:38
  it. Yeah, you have to be aware of this stuff because far left
• 2:42
  politicians are pushing this stuff across the west. In Canada, Trudeau's got a
• 2:47
  bill that in some ways is even worse than this. Subscribe to the Channel
• 2:52
  and you can watch my videos on that. It has future crime in it,
• 2:54
  punishment for things you haven't actually done yet, as well as life in
• 3:00
  prison for whatever that hate speech crimes is going to mean. But another part
• 3:06
  of it appears to be driven by genuine hatred. Just listen to Scotland First
• 3:09
  Minister Yusef Humsa condemning the Scottish government on racial terms. The Lord President.
• 3:15
  This is absolutely unbelievable, this part. You just won't believe. Scotland,
• 3:21
  Okay, Scotland, Scotland is still like ninety percent Scottish. All right,
• 3:24
  listen to this guy, the lord Justice Clark White, every High Court judge
• 3:30
  White, the lord advocate White. Hums The suggests that the reason for the
• 3:35
  way he spits it out to and he goes on in the video I made,
• 3:38
  I show you the longer part of that, a longer section of that,
• 3:42
  and he just keeps going on white, and it's like an accusation white.
• 3:46
  In fact, it is an accusation, it is hey. In fact,
• 3:51
  four thousand people complained as soon as on April first, when this bill
• 3:55
  went through, when this law went through, four thousand people complained about him
• 4:00
  for that speech. Guess what, He didn't do anything wrong according to the
• 4:03
  police. Well, we know what happens with these laws. They're only used
• 4:08
  one way. They're totally political. They only are applied in one direction.
• 4:13
  Humsu suggests that the reason for all this is because Scottish people are racists.
• 4:17
  But the real reason is that ninety five percent of Scottish people are white.
• 4:20
  The fact that Humsa, a non white Muslim, is the highest ranking Scottish
• 4:25
  politician is a sign of how non racist the Scottish people are. For Humsa
• 4:29
  to reach the top political job in Scotland and then insists that the reason he's
• 4:32
  so rare is because the Scottish people are racist. Is it self hateful.
• 4:36
  The bad news is that the censors are on the offensive and we're on the
• 4:40
  defensive. In the US, Europe, Scotland, Germany, Ireland, Canada,
• 4:44
  Brazil, an alliance of government agencies, government funded think tanks, and
• 4:47
  corporate news media have come together to demand ever more censorship. Yeah, I
• 4:53
  mean, this is now a phenomenon across the Western world. Now in the
• 4:57
  United States, fortunately they have the First Amendment, but you know, you've
• 5:00
  still got the Biden administrative administration with you know, backdoor portals into social media
• 5:06
  companies trying directly censoring people through the social media companies, now, which that's
• 5:13
  illegal. They're not supposed to be doing it, but they are doing it.
• 5:15
  They have been doing it, and that's happening across the West. It
• 5:18
  all seems coordinated, like the mass migration. It seems coordinated across the West,
• 5:23
  as if, I don't know, maybe the leaders are all getting together
• 5:27
  somewhere, like I don't know, Switzerland or something, and all making agreements
• 5:31
  on these things that nobody actually voted for. Strange, isn't it. Now
• 5:34
  all seems to be coming up with these censorship laws that people don't actually want
• 5:40
  they want it. The goal of it all seems to be to just wreck
• 5:43
  Western civilization.
