Latest / Honey Badger Radio / UN Women: “Coming for your platforms!” | HBR Talk 371
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to HBr Talk three seventy one. You
- 0:07Speaker 1: and women coming for your platforms and they are. I'm
- 0:12Speaker 1: your host, Tanna Wallen here with nonsense annihilator Lauren Brokes
- 0:15Speaker 1: and the personification of perceptivity Mike Stevenson with the dog
- 0:18Speaker 1: in charge in the background making sure things work the
- 0:22Speaker 1: way they should. And tonight we're still looking into you
- 0:25Speaker 1: and women's behaviors. I can't just say it's complaints against us,
- 0:30Speaker 1: because there's shit they want to do, wanted to do,
- 0:33Speaker 1: and they brought it up a couple of years ago,
- 0:35Speaker 1: and some of it sounds suspiciously like the stuff that's
- 0:38Speaker 1: being done today using children instead of misogyny as the excuse.
- 0:47Speaker 1: So this is something that they've been pushing for for
- 0:50Speaker 1: a while and they just basically found which buttons they
- 0:54Speaker 1: could push to try to get people to shut up
- 0:57Speaker 1: about it and accept it. And it looks like using
- 1:02Speaker 1: exploiting children as the vehicle hasn't necessarily worked any better.
- 1:08Speaker 1: People are still talking about it, but in any case,
- 1:13Speaker 1: they're still still doing it. So we are going to
- 1:17Speaker 1: take a look at what they wanted to do. And
- 1:20Speaker 1: there's at least one thing here that I know existed,
- 1:22Speaker 1: So we'll get into it here in just a minute,
- 1:27Speaker 1: but before we get into it, we gotta do what
- 1:29Speaker 1: we got to do. As always, Honey Badger Radio dishes
- 1:32Speaker 1: out as morgas board of thought provoking discussions and as
- 1:35Speaker 1: experiences both recent and long past have demonstrated the provoked
- 1:39Speaker 1: thoughts are fighting back. They've made it clear that for
- 1:43Speaker 1: people like us, relying on third party payment platforms like
- 1:46Speaker 1: Patreon to fund our work is treading onsen ice or
- 1:51Speaker 1: building our house in the path of a rapidly growing wildfire.
- 1:55Speaker 1: In light of this, we strongly encourage our supporters to
- 1:59Speaker 1: switch at least please their support for us to Feed
- 2:01Speaker 1: the Badger dot Com the most stable way to help
- 2:03Speaker 1: us out, And if you want to tip us directly
- 2:06Speaker 1: instead of relying on any social media platforms, tip jar.
- 2:09Speaker 1: The link for that is feed the Badger dot Com
- 2:11Speaker 1: slash just the tip. We will be reading some of
- 2:14Speaker 1: those today from this weekend because we were not able
- 2:18Speaker 1: to see them during the show, so we'll do that
- 2:20Speaker 1: before we get into the today's show as well. As always,
- 2:24Speaker 1: the same risk applies to our social media platforms, especially
- 2:28Speaker 1: with considering what we're reading today, which is why you
- 2:32Speaker 1: should further provoke the thought police by tracking our thought
- 2:35Speaker 1: provoking discussions on Honeybadger Brigade dot com, where you can
- 2:40Speaker 1: find your way to all of our content, as well
- 2:42Speaker 1: as a link to feed the Badger dot com in
- 2:44Speaker 1: the drop down menu at the top of the page.
- 2:47Speaker 1: And so to look at our superchows that we got
- 2:52Speaker 1: during this weekend. Zapier gave us one thousand dollars and
- 2:56Speaker 1: au WoT mate what you do, which doesn't sound as
- 3:02Speaker 1: cool coming from Ohio as it does coming from London.
- 3:04Speaker 1: But you know, uh, konos, what kind of dollars is that? Yeah, yeah,
- 3:10Speaker 1: it doesn't say so. It's probably a thousand American dollars.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Good lawd Yeah, Vapier loves us. So I just wanted
- 3:19Speaker 1: to say, you're in to the cookout. There we go.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Now we have to have a cookout, guys. Yes, you
- 3:26Speaker 1: can realize that that if we invite people, we have
- 3:29Speaker 1: to have one.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Yes, there we go.
- 3:34Speaker 1: That's that's got to happen now, like sometime next summer.
- 3:40Speaker 1: But thank you very much, Zapier. We are very grateful
- 3:43Speaker 1: and we love you too. Knoko's evil twin gave us
- 3:48Speaker 1: fifty dollars and said uh. The assassination of Charlie Kirk
- 3:52Speaker 1: is one hundred percent in line with the Democrat policy
- 3:55Speaker 1: to destroy the nuclear family. Divorce is the usual method
- 3:59Speaker 1: of dominating fathers from families, but on this occasion a
- 4:02Speaker 1: bullet was used instead. Charlie just wanted to build bridges.
- 4:07Speaker 1: The takeaway lesson from his murder is that not only
- 4:10Speaker 1: can you not build bridges with equal evil psychopaths, you
- 4:13Speaker 1: cannot build civilization itself either. There's no middle ground for
- 4:17Speaker 1: compromise with evil that will see you dead merely just
- 4:22Speaker 1: because of the words you say. The ice flow beckons
- 4:26Speaker 1: for the hazardous hominid biowate that we must discard. And
- 4:31Speaker 1: you know my thinking on this is you know this.
- 4:35Speaker 1: This man was assassinated for the crime of reaching out
- 4:41Speaker 1: to young men and instilling in them the ability to
- 4:47Speaker 1: form convictions with strength and wisdom that they can be
- 4:51Speaker 1: confident in by using logic and reason and facts instead
- 4:57Speaker 1: of feelings, which is what the universities are pushing on him.
- 5:03Speaker 1: He made them less easy to manipulate, lie to, and
- 5:10Speaker 1: trick into voting for things that they that are against
- 5:15Speaker 1: their self interest, and he made them more capable of
- 5:20Speaker 1: forming strong families. By choosing a partner who has those
- 5:25Speaker 1: same qualities and forming a family with that partner and
- 5:31Speaker 1: not some flippant female who might you know, have have
- 5:37Speaker 1: very few trustworthy qualities. And I think that that was
- 5:42Speaker 1: really the reason there was a big target on his back.
- 5:45Speaker 1: He was taking the ability away from the establishment to
- 5:49Speaker 1: manipulate young men. Yeah, they didn't just want to take
- 5:53Speaker 1: him away from his family, They wanted to take him
- 5:55Speaker 1: away from their families.
- 5:58Speaker 3: Well, hold on, honey, you need to turn down the temper.
- 6:00Speaker 3: I don't see anyone on your side even trying to
- 6:03Speaker 3: turn down the temperature on this divisive rhetoric that you're saying.
- 6:08Speaker 3: And if you don't turn down the temperature, then then
- 6:12Speaker 3: will we will keep firing guns at you. And don't
- 6:15Speaker 3: worry about the temperature of these guns. They're perfectly cold
- 6:20Speaker 3: blooded and we will keep them as cold blooded as
- 6:22Speaker 3: we can until you shut the fuck up. And I'm
- 6:26Speaker 3: doing the bird hands while I say this. You need
- 6:30Speaker 3: to shut the fuck up and turn down the temperature
- 6:34Speaker 3: on the things you're saying, or else we will keep
- 6:36Speaker 3: murdering you. Is that is? Does that please? And sparkle as?
- 6:40Speaker 1: Okay? I swear I need to make a bird hands
- 6:44Speaker 1: video where instead of like the pointy fingers with the
- 6:48Speaker 1: bird beak, I'm gonna do, you know, the the intertwined
- 6:51Speaker 1: thumbs with the rest of the fingers sticking out for
- 6:54Speaker 1: wings and just like maneuver them back and forth across
- 6:58Speaker 1: in front of my face as I'm ting fucking listen
- 7:01Speaker 1: to me, I have bird hands. These are bird hands, right.
- 7:07Speaker 1: But when it when it comes down to it, these
- 7:09Speaker 1: people talking about turning down the temperature, bringing down the temperature,
- 7:14Speaker 1: there's something that they don't realize, right, too hot and
- 7:19Speaker 1: too cold can both lead to the same outcome. Mm
- 7:22Speaker 1: hm and uh. This is this is something that you
- 7:27Speaker 1: know when I when my temper gets to the level
- 7:31Speaker 1: where it's threatening to be out of control, it's there's
- 7:38Speaker 1: a thing you do with your temper in that situation
- 7:41Speaker 1: when if you're smart and you you you understand that
- 7:46Speaker 1: you're you're not going to bring down your internal temperature.
- 7:48Speaker 1: You are going to be that angry and it is
- 7:51Speaker 1: it isn't going to go away. It's not something you
- 7:52Speaker 1: can squish into a little compartment and say it's not there,
- 7:56Speaker 1: and it's not something you can diffuse because your anger
- 7:59Speaker 1: is legitimate. It's real and solid, and the reason for
- 8:04Speaker 1: it is valid. It's a valid reason to be angry. Right,
- 8:09Speaker 1: somebody was was wrongly murdered here, and and it was
- 8:14Speaker 1: done for very petty reasons that pretty much are an
- 8:20Speaker 1: attack on the entire public. And it's not just an
- 8:23Speaker 1: attack on free speech. It's an attack on a way
- 8:27Speaker 1: of life, and it's an attack on the country. And
- 8:32Speaker 1: what people don't understand is the temperature on that temper
- 8:38Speaker 1: can be flipped from hot blooded, where you would do
- 8:43Speaker 1: something maybe poorly thought out right two cold and calculated meticulous.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, yeah.
- 8:56Speaker 1: And and when I when I get like that and
- 9:00Speaker 1: that's on the other side of it, should run yeah.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Yeah. And that's exactly where we are right now.
- 9:07Speaker 4: You know, there are people who don't understand or they're
- 9:11Speaker 4: you know, criticizing the right for lack of a better term,
- 9:17Speaker 4: for having this reaction. However, it's like how many times
- 9:21Speaker 4: can you poke the bear before the bear actually strikes out.
- 9:27Speaker 2: And hits you. You know what I mean.
- 9:29Speaker 4: It's the same fucking thing that they when it was
- 9:33Speaker 4: the left doing it, it was cancel culture, right, because
- 9:36Speaker 4: they were taking our words, twisting them and then using
- 9:41Speaker 4: that to attack our jobs.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Attack our livelihoods, attack.
- 9:45Speaker 4: Our families, and they don't so much like it when's
- 9:49Speaker 4: that pendulum swings right the fuck back in their direction.
- 9:53Speaker 2: They don't like that shit at all. Well, too bad,
- 9:56Speaker 2: too bad.
- 9:57Speaker 4: You open this fucking Pandora's by and you are getting
- 10:01Speaker 4: everything that is coming to you in spades, and I
- 10:07Speaker 4: you know, uh, it's just so frustrating, like, you know,
- 10:14Speaker 4: because this is kind of how I am.
- 10:16Speaker 2: You know, I'm the nicest person in the world until
- 10:18Speaker 2: you fuck with me. Once you do that, then it's
- 10:24Speaker 2: all better over, you know what I mean. That's it.
- 10:28Speaker 4: You want this, You wanted this attention, and now you're
- 10:30Speaker 4: gonna fucking get it.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Now you all are gonna fucking get it.
- 10:33Speaker 5: And oh my god, and wroth that man lost his
- 10:37Speaker 5: fucking life, that woman lost her husband, those children lost
- 10:41Speaker 5: their fucking father, and I don't care about.
- 10:45Speaker 2: Your stupid woe is me cries, I can't even think.
- 10:49Speaker 4: Yes, No, there are not very many companies who will
- 10:53Speaker 4: accept a representative of that company, which as an employee,
- 10:57Speaker 4: that's exactly what you are. They're not gonna take kindly
- 11:01Speaker 4: to you being still very public publicly dancing on someone's grave.
- 11:10Speaker 1: Yep, you all remember dongle gate, dongle gate, dongle gate. There.
- 11:17Speaker 1: This was that I believe Python, which is for anybody
- 11:23Speaker 1: that's not a total nerd, that is a convention.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Someone made a joke about a dongle and some and
- 11:32Speaker 3: some Karen got them fired, right.
- 11:34Speaker 1: Yeah, so Python is a convention for people who specialize
- 11:41Speaker 1: in using Python, which is a programming language. And I
- 11:46Speaker 1: don't know if it's still I know, programming languages sometimes
- 11:49Speaker 1: become outdated as new ones come along, and so I
- 11:52Speaker 1: don't know if it's still in action. But this was
- 11:56Speaker 1: a rather large gathering and there was a demonstration going on,
- 12:00Speaker 1: and there were a couple of guys in the audience,
- 12:02Speaker 1: and the joke was so mild. The one said, the
- 12:07Speaker 1: guy had a big dongle. And then dongle is anything
- 12:10Speaker 1: that you attach your computer. So your USB thumb drive,
- 12:14Speaker 1: that's a dongle. If you have a device to like
- 12:21Speaker 1: to to enhance the use of your computer, if you
- 12:24Speaker 1: have a second any any excess power that you're going
- 12:28Speaker 1: to add to it, or anything, if you're attaching it,
- 12:31Speaker 1: it's a dongle. And and uh, that's that's all he said,
- 12:34Speaker 1: that's a big dongle. And and the other guy kind
- 12:37Speaker 1: of giggled, and then one of them said something about
- 12:41Speaker 1: I'd like to fork his code, and that was the
- 12:44Speaker 1: entire conversation. Forking is like you you ifire, remember it.
- 12:49Speaker 1: It's you take the individual's existing code and you build
- 12:54Speaker 1: from it in a different direction than they were going
- 12:56Speaker 1: with it. For Vernon, it's still used as last time
- 13:03Speaker 1: he checked, so there's probably still Python is probably still
- 13:06Speaker 1: in existence. Yeah, this rites an open source language.
- 13:12Speaker 3: It's not like this was something said on a like
- 13:15Speaker 3: public panel in this convention. It was said in the audience,
- 13:19Speaker 3: like in a private conversation between two guys and some
- 13:22Speaker 3: eves dropping feminists heard this, and she got them canceled
- 13:27Speaker 3: and she got them fired. This is where the leftist
- 13:32Speaker 3: feminists were ten years ago. They were getting people canceled
- 13:35Speaker 3: for telling that kind of silly joke in private in
- 13:40Speaker 3: an audience. Skipped to ten years ahead, and and they're
- 13:48Speaker 3: getting canceled for literally advocating murder. And then one's going
- 13:55Speaker 3: all we did was advocate some murder. Was the mind boggles.
- 14:00Speaker 3: There's not enough space in the mind for all this boggle.
- 14:06Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, yeah, manngaka ninety two on Rumble says
- 14:11Speaker 1: Python is one of the most popular currently used. So
- 14:15Speaker 1: h if I remember right, not too long ago at oscon,
- 14:19Speaker 1: which is Open Source convention, there was there was a
- 14:24Speaker 1: similar not quite the same, but a similar kicking out
- 14:30Speaker 1: of people who were the wrong political perspective, right on
- 14:34Speaker 1: the wrong side of history in terms of you know
- 14:39Speaker 1: what political perspectives. You couldn't be there and be conservative,
- 14:44Speaker 1: or you couldn't be there and be affiliated with the
- 14:48Speaker 1: the pro consumer side of gamer Gate, the gamer Gate controversy.
- 14:54Speaker 1: So U basically OSCAN said, go home, gamer girl. And
- 15:00Speaker 1: of course the one that hits closest to home for
- 15:04Speaker 1: us was Alison and Troupe, including at least two at
- 15:11Speaker 1: least two of us on this panel were kicked out
- 15:16Speaker 1: of a convention for suggesting that both sexes are equally important.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Men are as human as women, and if you're going
- 15:26Speaker 1: to talk about gender in terms of comics, it's only
- 15:32Speaker 1: right and fair to bring both sexes into that conversation.
- 15:36Speaker 1: And that was it. That was the controversial statement, terribly controversial,
- 15:44Speaker 1: that was considered harassment to get permission to speak and
- 15:49Speaker 1: then to say that, right, that was it. So in
- 15:56Speaker 1: that time period they were canceling people, destroying career right,
- 16:02Speaker 1: getting people fired from their jobs. I mean, there were
- 16:06Speaker 1: several of us at a Voice for Men who were
- 16:10Speaker 1: docked and harassed on Twitter for the crime of switching
- 16:18Speaker 1: from calling ourselves men's rights activists, which was actually started
- 16:23Speaker 1: as a feminist slur, to calling ourselves men's human rights activists,
- 16:27Speaker 1: to remind people that what we are fighting for is
- 16:30Speaker 1: simply an inclusion of men in the human rights dialogue.
- 16:39Speaker 1: That was it, that was the controversial thing. That was
- 16:41Speaker 1: the reason why, for instance, the kindergarten that was attended
- 16:47Speaker 1: by Jack Barnes's daughter needed to be published, The address
- 16:51Speaker 1: needed to be published so that he should be scared
- 16:53Speaker 1: that somebody would show up there and do something violent.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Why they needed to tell people where my parents lived,
- 17:04Speaker 1: my elderly parents. That was the way that they were
- 17:10Speaker 1: just a few years ago. Today today they're mad that
- 17:18Speaker 1: they cannot repeatedly post pictures of gore and celebrate the
- 17:24Speaker 1: murder of a human being. For being on the wrong
- 17:27Speaker 1: side of a debate about what is the right way
- 17:32Speaker 1: to handle certain circumstances, whether it's gay rights, trans rights,
- 17:38Speaker 1: how your education is progressing, or any other political issue.
- 17:46Speaker 1: The controversy was the existence of open debate. That's it.
- 17:50Speaker 1: And they're mad that they can't celebrate that this man
- 17:56Speaker 1: was murdered for promoting open debate and still have their
- 18:02Speaker 1: company want to be associated with them. That's who we're
- 18:06Speaker 1: up against. That's who's telling us to turn down the temperature.
- 18:10Speaker 1: We're allowed to be mad, but you're not, is what
- 18:12Speaker 1: we're being told. We're allowed to be violent, but you're not.
- 18:15Speaker 1: That's what we're being told. Meredith g gave us ten dollars
- 18:20Speaker 1: and said, there's a question out there because the rise
- 18:23Speaker 1: of political violence in the twentieth and twenty first century
- 18:26Speaker 1: seems to correlate to the destruction of men's roles in
- 18:28Speaker 1: society and the failure of them to have a place
- 18:31Speaker 1: in society. These lost men are easy target for radicalization,
- 18:35Speaker 1: and they become weapons for the proxy violence that women fulminate.
- 18:40Speaker 1: So I've sort of looked into the history of you know,
- 18:46Speaker 1: the gay rights movement in the past, and that includes
- 18:50Speaker 1: like the trans rights movement and everything, and something that
- 18:55Speaker 1: I found interesting and we did do a we did
- 19:00Speaker 1: a show on this a while back. You know, all
- 19:05Speaker 1: these rights, the right to be left alone, essentially, to
- 19:10Speaker 1: not be treated like a disease in society because you're
- 19:15Speaker 1: a little bit different on your own, alone in your
- 19:19Speaker 1: home or with the consenting adult in your home. That
- 19:23Speaker 1: was fought for on the backs of men. That was
- 19:26Speaker 1: men and biologically male individuals that may identify as female,
- 19:34Speaker 1: or men who cross dressed and still identified as male.
- 19:37Speaker 1: They were the ones that did the bulk of activism
- 19:42Speaker 1: of taking the brunt of government punishment, taking the brunt
- 19:48Speaker 1: of social punishment, and physically being harmed by people throwing
- 19:55Speaker 1: rocks at them, by being shot by rubber bullets, by
- 19:58Speaker 1: being shot with real bullets, by being rested and beaten
- 20:03Speaker 1: up and and incarcerated, and uh in in some parts
- 20:09Speaker 1: of history, by being executed for the crime of being
- 20:12Speaker 1: that different, being so different that they have nothing in
- 20:15Speaker 1: their lives that is done in service to women. They're
- 20:19Speaker 1: the ones that fought for it right. But the ones
- 20:22Speaker 1: that have played victim the loudest are those who are
- 20:27Speaker 1: biologically female, lesbians, bisexual women, and trans men and uh
- 20:37Speaker 1: it's it's just a historical fact that women co opt
- 20:45Speaker 1: men's places and men's issues throughout history. Women have done
- 20:50Speaker 1: that once once Lesbians took over when it when it
- 20:55Speaker 1: switched from the the gay rights movement to the gay
- 21:00Speaker 1: and lesbian movement, and then the LGB movement, and then LGBT.
- 21:07Speaker 1: It went from being about human rights, the right to
- 21:12Speaker 1: be left alone, the right to not be interfered with
- 21:14Speaker 1: as long as you're not interfering with someone else, to
- 21:18Speaker 1: all kinds of rights to interfere with other people with impunity,
- 21:23Speaker 1: basically without being told no, the right to erase other
- 21:27Speaker 1: people's boundaries. And from there you ended up in the
- 21:33Speaker 1: education system and in the position to brainwash youth, and
- 21:41Speaker 1: in the position to brainwash young people like the individual
- 21:46Speaker 1: who shot Charlie Kirk. Feminist intrusion into that movement, which
- 21:54Speaker 1: was not initially a feminist movement, but intersectional feminism took
- 21:58Speaker 1: it over. When sectional feminism took it over, it became
- 22:03Speaker 1: what shaped that young man into an assassin. So feminism
- 22:09Speaker 1: is to blame very much, to blame for the death
- 22:13Speaker 1: of Charlie Kirk.
- 22:19Speaker 2: Then we have.
- 22:22Speaker 1: Ok FS eighty seven. Underscore seven gave us eighty dollars
- 22:27Speaker 1: and well, thank you for that. Brex gave us eighty
- 22:32Speaker 1: dollars and said I buy Micah's shirt exclamation point. Well,
- 22:38Speaker 1: thank you very much, Brex, love.
- 22:39Speaker 3: You Brex us so much for us and he asks
- 22:42Speaker 3: for nothing in return. Brex is a hero. He should
- 22:45Speaker 3: be protected at all costs.
- 22:48Speaker 1: And Telnar gave us thirty dollars and said thanks for
- 22:52Speaker 1: the book marks, Allison, and then gave us another forty
- 22:55Speaker 1: dollars and thanks for the shirt too. OKFS eighty seven
- 23:00Speaker 1: Underscore seven gave us another fifty dollars. We didn't get
- 23:02Speaker 1: messages from OKFS, so I don't know if that was
- 23:06Speaker 1: on purpose or an accident. And then today Meredith g
- 23:10Speaker 1: gave us five dollars and said, HBr talk three seventy one,
- 23:13Speaker 1: honey for the badger, thanks for the thought provoking conversation.
- 23:18Speaker 1: So we are all cut up on our on our
- 23:22Speaker 1: super chows. I also have a story that I just
- 23:25Speaker 1: think is important to get out there because it is
- 23:28Speaker 1: something that you know, initially I was was very annoyed
- 23:35Speaker 1: when it was happening, and then but I, but I
- 23:38Speaker 1: you know, didn't complain because I figured there might be
- 23:41Speaker 1: a reason behind it. And ultimately the reason was men
- 23:45Speaker 1: were protecting me and everybody else on the on the
- 23:48Speaker 1: jet that I flew home on. So I I had
- 23:51Speaker 1: a twenty two hour layover WHOA in Chicago, which if
- 23:57Speaker 1: you're going to have a twenty two hour layover in
- 23:59Speaker 1: an that's a good one because they have everything all right.
- 24:03Speaker 1: The only thing that's not in the airport is hotels,
- 24:05Speaker 1: which if you're gonna pay to stay in a hotel,
- 24:10Speaker 1: take a direct flight at the expense is about the same.
- 24:14Speaker 1: But so I I got up to the the airport
- 24:19Speaker 1: in Calgary at like three am. I went in there
- 24:24Speaker 1: and waited for American Airlines to open their you know,
- 24:29Speaker 1: I registered my flight, waited for American Airlines to open
- 24:32Speaker 1: their system up, and then I got everything taken care of,
- 24:37Speaker 1: and you know, got into place, and you know, got
- 24:40Speaker 1: on my flight and get to Chicago. And about twenty
- 24:46Speaker 1: hours into my twenty two hour layover, my my flight
- 24:50Speaker 1: starts changing gates. God, you know that happens. I registered
- 24:55Speaker 1: way ahead of time, so it's it's expected sometimes this,
- 24:57Speaker 1: you know, like almost every time when I've had a
- 24:59Speaker 1: cheap light, there's been a gate change at some point.
- 25:02Speaker 1: So no big deal. So I go to the second gate.
- 25:05Speaker 1: About ten minutes later it changed again, and then there
- 25:09Speaker 1: was a flight delay, and then there was another flight
- 25:14Speaker 1: delay and a third flight delay, and in between the
- 25:18Speaker 1: second and the third flight delay. They bounced me back
- 25:21Speaker 1: and forth between three different gates for a grand total
- 25:25Speaker 1: of nine gate changes. Oh my god, I'm like, what
- 25:28Speaker 1: the fuck you know, I'm like walking back and forth.
- 25:31Speaker 1: My legs were already tired because we went up on
- 25:34Speaker 1: the mountain at vance, and I'm abyssmally out of shape,
- 25:38Speaker 1: like to the degree of like embarrassingly out of shape.
- 25:42Speaker 1: People were watching out for me because they thought I
- 25:45Speaker 1: was going to die.
- 25:48Speaker 3: But she did make it to the top. Legend, gentlemen,
- 25:51Speaker 3: we all made it to the top eventually. It was
- 25:53Speaker 3: It's a glorious view. It's worth it.
- 25:55Speaker 1: It is, it is, But apparently I've been to I
- 26:00Speaker 1: was white as a sheet, but I don't make false
- 26:02Speaker 1: teeth for people who know the song. But in any case,
- 26:08Speaker 1: you know, I was obviously annoyed walking back and forth,
- 26:11Speaker 1: back and forth, back and forth, with sore legs and everything.
- 26:13Speaker 1: But I thought, you know, there's got to be a
- 26:14Speaker 1: reason for this. They don't just do this. I've never
- 26:17Speaker 1: seen them do this before. So finally, you know, it
- 26:20Speaker 1: gets to where they're they're not changing the gate anymore,
- 26:23Speaker 1: they're not delaying the flight anymore. And I was able
- 26:27Speaker 1: to talk to somebody about what's what's going on with
- 26:32Speaker 1: this flight? Like is something wrong? Is everything okay? And
- 26:36Speaker 1: it turns out that the jet we were originally going
- 26:39Speaker 1: to be on had a problem and there was no
- 26:42Speaker 1: way that problem could be fixed in time for them
- 26:45Speaker 1: to use that jet to make that flight. So they
- 26:49Speaker 1: switched it to another jet, and that jet also had
- 26:55Speaker 1: a problem, but they could fix that one. That problem
- 27:01Speaker 1: was doable. They could handle it before you know, flight time. Well,
- 27:05Speaker 1: then the engineers decided that you know, no, the mechanics
- 27:10Speaker 1: that we're working on a plane, this is going to
- 27:12Speaker 1: take longer than you you told the passengers, and so
- 27:16Speaker 1: they changed the gate the first time to give them
- 27:21Speaker 1: a little more time, but didn't delay the flight. And
- 27:24Speaker 1: then when they did delay the flight, they delayed it
- 27:26Speaker 1: like at the last minute. And then the mechanics are like, no,
- 27:31Speaker 1: it's it's going to take this much time. Even if
- 27:34Speaker 1: you don't give us this much time, we're not going
- 27:36Speaker 1: to compromise. And so they took the amount of time
- 27:39Speaker 1: it needed to do the job right to make sure
- 27:43Speaker 1: the jet was in operating condition so that we wouldn't
- 27:47Speaker 1: crash on the way back to Dayton. So shout out
- 27:52Speaker 1: to the flight mechanics at American Airlines who protected everybody
- 27:58Speaker 1: on that plane for them from the bureaucracy because when
- 28:03Speaker 1: they they obviously had to fight for their right to
- 28:08Speaker 1: do their job correctly. And this is this is why
- 28:12Speaker 1: you should be glad that a lot of mechanical engineers
- 28:15Speaker 1: and other mechanics are a little bit autistic, right, And
- 28:19Speaker 1: they'll put this down and say this is going to
- 28:21Speaker 1: take an hour, whether you want it to take half
- 28:25Speaker 1: an hour or an hour. So they just go ahead
- 28:28Speaker 1: and tell them it's going to take an hour. That's
- 28:32Speaker 1: I'm glad for that, right, And the bureaucrats don't always understand, so.
- 28:38Speaker 3: It's it's not the most efficient way to travel, but
- 28:41Speaker 3: this is why they call it the safest way to travel.
- 28:44Speaker 3: At least it was until it got flooded with DEI.
- 28:47Speaker 3: But that's another story for another day. We don't off,
- 28:51Speaker 3: we don't. We haven't been affected with all that bullshit.
- 28:54Speaker 1: Yet You're still more likely to encounter the type of
- 28:57Speaker 1: accident that will cause you to die if you're in
- 29:00Speaker 1: a car than you are if you're on a jet,
- 29:06Speaker 1: because being on a jet, accidents are much less forgiving.
- 29:12Speaker 1: They work much harder to prevent them, because there's a
- 29:16Speaker 1: whole lot of accidents you can have in a car
- 29:19Speaker 1: that are just very annoying and and don't result in
- 29:22Speaker 1: injury or death, just some that are, you know, potentially fatal.
- 29:29Speaker 1: And people are more careless with vehicles, I think because
- 29:32Speaker 1: they feel safe being surrounded by this cage and all
- 29:39Speaker 1: of the safety features that have been added and so on,
- 29:42Speaker 1: where you know, when you're thousands of feet in the air,
- 29:47Speaker 1: you know that there's not very many things that can
- 29:50Speaker 1: go catastrophically wrong without killing you, or at least that's
- 29:55Speaker 1: the way it feels, right, and so you're a lot
- 29:58Speaker 1: more careful. So there we go, men doing their jobs.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Women most affected, but in a good way. But that
- 30:14Speaker 1: all said, let's let's get into the meeting.
- 30:16Speaker 3: We have to talk about you and women now we do,
- 30:20Speaker 3: which we could just delay the inevitable by talking about
- 30:22Speaker 3: anything else.
- 30:25Speaker 1: All right, So let's see we have to go here.
- 30:31Speaker 1: This is where we were right. We had this this
- 30:33Speaker 1: discussion about this article what is the mainosphere and why
- 30:38Speaker 1: should we care? Blah blah blah. We read this and uh,
- 30:42Speaker 1: it ended in a discussion about digital abuse in real
- 30:48Speaker 1: world stereotypes and misogyny, uh and so on, and we
- 30:54Speaker 1: we got to the risk of radicalization. We read the
- 30:57Speaker 1: rest of this right, but we got to the risk
- 31:00Speaker 1: of radicalization, and we're told about this research from the
- 31:05Speaker 1: Institute for Strategic Dialogue. So we looked up the Institute
- 31:10Speaker 1: for Strategic Dialogue and this is them powering solutions to
- 31:16Speaker 1: hate extremism and authoritarianism. Oh my, I don't want your
- 31:22Speaker 1: fucking cookies rejected. There we go, and of course we
- 31:26Speaker 1: looked at who they are and what they do. Let's
- 31:29Speaker 1: see that wasn't here, but it gave a brief explanation
- 31:34Speaker 1: of who they are, and then most of the pages
- 31:38Speaker 1: for what they do and how that manifests didn't lead anywhere.
- 31:43Speaker 1: There were no links. So then we found the actual
- 31:48Speaker 1: study and opened it up and we read their definitions.
- 31:55Speaker 1: Last week they how they define or not last week,
- 31:59Speaker 1: but last the last episode, how they define things like
- 32:03Speaker 1: misogyny and online gender based violence, which I still can't
- 32:09Speaker 1: take seriously, right, online violence. I had a conversation with
- 32:15Speaker 1: a feminist during my wait time for I want to say,
- 32:22Speaker 1: for my first leg of my first flight or the
- 32:29Speaker 1: flight to Calgary, and in that conversation it might have
- 32:36Speaker 1: been during the layover, but in that conversation, she repeatedly
- 32:43Speaker 1: inserted video and images of gore from the Charlie Kirk murder,
- 32:51Speaker 1: from the Charlie Kirk assassination into the conversation that were
- 32:56Speaker 1: completely unrelated to what was under discussion. These were not
- 33:00Speaker 1: we weren't discussing Charlie Kirk. We were discussing something else,
- 33:04Speaker 1: and she just invaded the conversation from outside there was
- 33:07Speaker 1: she wasn't tagged into it, she didn't need to be there.
- 33:10Speaker 1: She's kind of invited herself in and started posting that shit.
- 33:14Speaker 1: Two strangers on the Internet with no connection whatsoever to
- 33:19Speaker 1: the conversation. Right if we did that, two feminists who
- 33:29Speaker 1: were discussing some you know, something to do with maybe
- 33:32Speaker 1: custody or child support or something like that, and just started,
- 33:37Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any such gore related to them, honestly,
- 33:42Speaker 1: but just started took a woman who had been murdered,
- 33:46Speaker 1: that that that there were images of this woman being murdered,
- 33:50Speaker 1: and just started posting that gore in that chat. You
- 33:53Speaker 1: can guarantee, without a doubt that would be deemed online
- 34:01Speaker 1: gender based violence.
- 34:05Speaker 3: We have examples very recently of a woman being brutally
- 34:09Speaker 3: murdered and a man being brutally murdered. They've been the
- 34:13Speaker 3: two biggest stories in the news over the last week
- 34:16Speaker 3: or so, and I guess showing either of them would
- 34:21Speaker 3: would be unacceptable anti feminist nonsense. And we're talking about
- 34:28Speaker 3: Irina Zariska and Charlie Kirk, and you think that they
- 34:34Speaker 3: would present as opposing examples of violence against women and
- 34:39Speaker 3: violence against men, and yet they're both being presented by
- 34:44Speaker 3: the quote unquote right. And until Charlie Kirk was murdered,
- 34:51Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, well, the murder of Iriana Zariska
- 34:59Speaker 3: is an example of the right sort of taking up
- 35:04Speaker 3: the mantle that the left refused to take up because
- 35:14Speaker 3: you would expect.
- 35:17Speaker 2: That.
- 35:19Speaker 3: Hang on, I have a write up somewhere that I
- 35:21Speaker 3: didn't get to do in the other thing. Where is it.
- 35:27Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm going to be a little bit controversial here,
- 35:34Speaker 6: but I feel that you need to notice how the
- 35:36Speaker 6: quote unquote online right is so ready to adopt the
- 35:40Speaker 6: ostensible positions of the legacy left as and when the
- 35:44Speaker 6: legacy left neglects to adopt them.
- 35:47Speaker 3: As we know, the virtue signalers of the icophobic, missandric
- 35:51Speaker 3: left are usually very vocal about protecting women, and in
- 35:56Speaker 3: the current decade, they're also very vocal about protect acting Ukrainians.
- 36:02Speaker 3: But it shouldn't be surprising that they're all radio silent
- 36:05Speaker 3: when it comes to the brutal, senseless murder of a
- 36:08Speaker 3: Ukrainian woman, as and when they can't find a way
- 36:12Speaker 3: to blame it on native men i e. White men,
- 36:17Speaker 3: in this case, American men. We've all been here doing
- 36:22Speaker 3: this for long enough to understand perfectly why they don't
- 36:25Speaker 3: give a shit, because they never did give a shit
- 36:28Speaker 3: about protecting women or Ukrainians. They're only interested in demonizing
- 36:35Speaker 3: European men, especially European American men. What seems odd to
- 36:40Speaker 3: me is that the quote unquote online right is so
- 36:44Speaker 3: ready to pick up the slack of the legacy left.
- 36:47Speaker 3: They're supposed to be the ones who give a shit
- 36:49Speaker 3: about men, especially their own countrymen, but they don't seem
- 36:53Speaker 3: to give a shit about the countless examples of their
- 36:56Speaker 3: own countrymen getting publicly shanked and shot and sucker punched
- 37:01Speaker 3: on a daily basis in every major city in every
- 37:06Speaker 3: Western country. And they have the nerve to make the
- 37:09Speaker 3: story about how the legacy media isn't covering this whatsoever. Yeah,
- 37:15Speaker 3: and you never covered the stories of the exact same
- 37:18Speaker 3: shit happening to men all the time, unless it's a
- 37:23Speaker 3: celebrity like Charlie Kirk, and then you give a shit.
- 37:26Speaker 3: And yes, I realize, I realize it's not news when
- 37:31Speaker 3: it happens to men, because it happens all the time
- 37:35Speaker 3: to men. It's like people taking illegal drugs or exceeding
- 37:39Speaker 3: the speed limit. These are crimes that are committed all
- 37:43Speaker 3: over the place, all over the time. If we made
- 37:45Speaker 3: a news story about it every time it happens, it
- 37:48Speaker 3: would make up ninety nine percent of the news. But
- 37:51Speaker 3: that doesn't mean we shouldn't be outraged about innocent men
- 37:55Speaker 3: getting killed or injured. Harden my anus. But I think
- 38:00Speaker 3: men's lives are just as important as women's lives, and
- 38:04Speaker 3: we ought to be, if anything, a hundred times more
- 38:08Speaker 3: outraged about their lives being callously disposed of, what with
- 38:12Speaker 3: it happening one hundred times more often approximately, And the
- 38:17Speaker 3: fact that we're not is to me the story. If
- 38:22Speaker 3: you think the fate of Ariana Zarutzka is symbolic of
- 38:26Speaker 3: the decline of society because half of the country doesn't
- 38:29Speaker 3: seem to give a shit. Well, I have some shocking
- 38:31Speaker 3: news for you. This shit happens to men all the time,
- 38:36Speaker 3: and almost the entire country doesn't give a shit. And
- 38:40Speaker 3: it's been this way for longer than anyone can remember.
- 38:44Speaker 3: The left doesn't care about anyone or anything. We've established
- 38:48Speaker 3: that what the left claims to care about is actually
- 38:53Speaker 3: what the right cares about women, especially photogenic women, especially
- 38:59Speaker 3: Ukrainian rep. Geez. Meanwhile, what the right claims to care
- 39:03Speaker 3: about is actually what nobody cares about men. It's what
- 39:09Speaker 3: nobody cares about, except, of course us. A handful of
- 39:13Speaker 3: shadow band space lepers on the Internet. Now that the
- 39:17Speaker 3: psychotic left is finally acknowledging this, a lot of them
- 39:21Speaker 3: are going, well, this is what you white people can
- 39:24Speaker 3: expect after four hundred years of oppressing black people. And
- 39:28Speaker 3: the right is responded to this by going, but she's Ukrainian,
- 39:35Speaker 3: as if to insinuate that if she was American or
- 39:39Speaker 3: Western European, it would somehow be a valid point for
- 39:42Speaker 3: these psychos to be blaming the victim, or at least
- 39:45Speaker 3: it would be a more valid point. Sorry, but fuck you,
- 39:50Speaker 3: actually sorry, not sorry, and fuck you. Nobody deserves to
- 39:55Speaker 3: be shanks in the neck, not even people of Northwest
- 40:00Speaker 3: European descent, not even men. But yeah, we've got the
- 40:04Speaker 3: left continuing to blame everything on Northwest European men, while
- 40:09Speaker 3: the right is defending everyone else. It's been completely normalized
- 40:16Speaker 3: for this to happen to us. For every ninety nine
- 40:19Speaker 3: men who get brutalized, it happens to one woman. And
- 40:25Speaker 3: then everyone gets outraged and they think they're addressing the problem.
- 40:30Speaker 3: You're not. This is a symptom of the problem. The
- 40:32Speaker 3: complete indifference to white male lives and their disposability is
- 40:37Speaker 3: the problem. You only demonstrate your compliance with this problem
- 40:42Speaker 3: when you ignore all the male lives and you clutch
- 40:45Speaker 3: at your pearls on the odd occasion when that callous
- 40:49Speaker 3: indifference happens to affect a female life. If you want
- 40:54Speaker 3: to address this problem, try addressing the other ninety nine
- 40:58Speaker 3: percent of it. If you want to preserve life, see
- 41:00Speaker 3: if you can briefly glance in the direction of the
- 41:03Speaker 3: vast majority of lives that are being unthinkingly disposed of.
- 41:10Speaker 3: Dare I say, systematically and institutionally, namely your own countrymen.
- 41:16Speaker 3: The left needs to stop demonizing them at every opportunity,
- 41:21Speaker 3: and the right needs to at least acknowledge them. That
- 41:25Speaker 3: would at least be a start. We still haven't even
- 41:27Speaker 3: got to the start. I don't pretend like you give
- 41:30Speaker 3: a shit about innocent lives when you can't even comprehend
- 41:34Speaker 3: that men have innocent lives. Yeah, sick of it, man,
- 41:41Speaker 3: fkaing sick of it.
- 41:43Speaker 1: Very much so. And you know, as a result, like
- 41:48Speaker 1: there's there's a lot of men who are simply choosing
- 41:50Speaker 1: to walk away and their right to do so. I mean,
- 41:55Speaker 1: when you consider it right engaging in violence on someone
- 42:03Speaker 1: else's behalf, even if it is the mildest form of violence.
- 42:06Speaker 1: You bear hug somebody, for instance, to keep them from
- 42:09Speaker 1: doing something more violent, that's risky. There's a physical risk involved.
- 42:16Speaker 1: That individual may switch their violence effectively to you. If
- 42:21Speaker 1: they're ineffective, okay, may seem like no big deal. If
- 42:26Speaker 1: they're effective, then you're injured. Right, So, every time someone
- 42:33Speaker 1: expects a man to step up on behalf of the
- 42:36Speaker 1: victim of a violent crime, they're saying, you need to
- 42:40Speaker 1: put yourself at risk to protect this other individual. You
- 42:44Speaker 1: do make this other individual's safety more important than your own.
- 42:49Speaker 1: That is the message that men are getting. They're getting
- 42:51Speaker 1: that message every day. They get that message every day
- 42:56Speaker 1: from early childhood when they are told to get into
- 43:00Speaker 1: between bullies and girls, even if the bully is another girl.
- 43:06Speaker 1: And the best advice you could give a guy is
- 43:07Speaker 1: if the bully is another girl, you stay out of it.
- 43:12Speaker 1: If you see two women fighting, two girls fighting, stay
- 43:15Speaker 1: out of it. It's gonna get vicious. There's nothing, literally,
- 43:20Speaker 1: nothing you can do to help that isn't going to
- 43:23Speaker 1: result in some sort of splashback on you of some
- 43:29Speaker 1: sort of consequence, whether it's physical or social or legal.
- 43:37Speaker 4: And even when they hear that, you can literally say
- 43:40Speaker 4: the words to these men and it's just like natural
- 43:44Speaker 4: instinct for them.
- 43:45Speaker 2: To just be on this. Well, No, I must protect.
- 43:48Speaker 1: Those wah yeah to it. Yeah, like I said, from
- 43:52Speaker 1: early childhood, then other people's safety is more important than
- 43:56Speaker 1: their own, and it's their job to risk their safety
- 43:59Speaker 1: for other people. It's not it's no, that's a job.
- 44:05Speaker 1: Security staff does that job, bodyguards do that job. They
- 44:09Speaker 1: get paid, police do that job, they get paid.
- 44:13Speaker 4: Right, and and it's not even that day, it's not
- 44:16Speaker 4: even that. It's not your job, it's not your responsibility.
- 44:19Speaker 4: And on top of which you could end up risking
- 44:23Speaker 4: your own life or jail time because you wanted to
- 44:27Speaker 4: help this woman because she said she was in danger.
- 44:31Speaker 2: Oh my god, this guy wrong.
- 44:33Speaker 1: Yeah, like the incidents, there's been a few incidents that
- 44:37Speaker 1: have been made public online where some woman stole a
- 44:40Speaker 1: man's bag shopping bag or whatever, like you know those
- 44:44Speaker 1: grocery shopping bags you can buy to reuse, Yeah, and
- 44:47Speaker 1: and tried to run off with it, and everybody thought,
- 44:49Speaker 1: because he was chasing her, that he was the perse
- 44:52Speaker 1: snatcher and tackled him. And there's been a couple of
- 44:56Speaker 1: instances where the person, the actual bag snatcher, got away.
- 45:00Speaker 1: There's been instances where, you know, the the individual that
- 45:06Speaker 1: was the victim of the bag snatching got injured by
- 45:11Speaker 1: the people trying to protect the bag snatcher from him.
- 45:14Speaker 1: And you know, people have been sued for this, people
- 45:17Speaker 1: have been jailed for assaulting someone because of this. So, yeah,
- 45:24Speaker 1: if you don't understand the situation, you could actually do
- 45:30Speaker 1: something wrong by trying to protect a woman. Women do
- 45:34Speaker 1: commit crimes, and women do commit violent crimes. They may
- 45:40Speaker 1: not be the majority arrested for violent crimes, but when
- 45:45Speaker 1: you see a violent conflict between a man and a woman,
- 45:52Speaker 1: you don't know what's going on, and the best thing
- 45:55Speaker 1: to do is either stay out of it or to
- 45:59Speaker 1: try to talk it down to let's wait for the
- 46:02Speaker 1: police and let them decide what's going on instead of
- 46:06Speaker 1: you deciding what's going on and engaging in violence. And
- 46:12Speaker 1: the other thing that I would say is in those circumstances,
- 46:17Speaker 1: even if you take pictures or video for evidence purposes,
- 46:21Speaker 1: don't put that shit on social media. No, all right,
- 46:24Speaker 1: because whoever the victim is probably doesn't want to be
- 46:28Speaker 1: on social media being the victim of a crime. That
- 46:32Speaker 1: is a moment of embarrassment and humiliation. For a violent
- 46:37Speaker 1: crime victim, it's horrible being dominated by another person and
- 46:44Speaker 1: not being able to stop them from doing to you
- 46:49Speaker 1: whatever it is they want to do to you, or
- 46:51Speaker 1: taking from you whatever it is they want to take
- 46:53Speaker 1: from you. It's not just humbling, it's humiliating. And nobody
- 46:58Speaker 1: wants their most hue a miliating moment on on social
- 47:03Speaker 1: media for everybody to see that they couldn't defend themselves.
- 47:08Speaker 1: So yeah, this is it's not You don't become a
- 47:12Speaker 1: hero by putting that stuff on social media. You don't
- 47:16Speaker 1: become a hero by jumping to conclusions about a circumstance
- 47:21Speaker 1: and then acting on those without without evidence. So in
- 47:28Speaker 1: any case, yeah, that's that's real world violence, and that
- 47:33Speaker 1: violence is real. Right, this is an entirely different story.
- 47:41Speaker 1: So what where we are now? We're we're talking about
- 47:48Speaker 1: what they want to do? What do they want to
- 47:50Speaker 1: do about the situation. And the first thing they came
- 47:53Speaker 1: out with their introductory paragraph to this section, which I
- 47:59Speaker 1: guess they put the label for each section. They just
- 48:07Speaker 1: they just just put the section up. Let me see
- 48:09Speaker 1: if I have this again. We'll just duplicate this tab.
- 48:17Speaker 2: We are on.
- 48:20Speaker 1: This will be page twenty one. But let's see if
- 48:28Speaker 1: I can go. No, I don't need that go all
- 48:32Speaker 1: the way back to the top. We don't need to
- 48:36Speaker 1: view a summary. We need to view the title. The
- 48:40Speaker 1: thing that I'm looking at is we talked about how
- 48:43Speaker 1: they want to enable API access to platform data. So
- 48:47Speaker 1: they want Facebook and x dot com and Reddit and
- 48:55Speaker 1: YouTube and all those different platforms to share with each other.
- 48:58Speaker 1: Here is what the people on our platform are saying
- 49:02Speaker 1: and doing, And here's what we are what we are doing,
- 49:06Speaker 1: what our algorithms look like, what our information coming in
- 49:10Speaker 1: looks like, and so on and then we talked a
- 49:16Speaker 1: little bit about how they want to when they say
- 49:19Speaker 1: apply a victim survivor centered safety and privacy by design
- 49:27Speaker 1: like by design approach, what they're saying is you're guilty
- 49:33Speaker 1: until proven innocent, and then sometimes even if proven innocent
- 49:37Speaker 1: in terms of what you have said and done on
- 49:41Speaker 1: social media and it's impact on the individual who is
- 49:45Speaker 1: reporting you, and whether or not that that impact makes
- 49:50Speaker 1: you guilty of something that doing something wrong, whether there's
- 49:53Speaker 1: wrongdoing involved, you're guilty unless proven innocent, and sometimes even
- 50:01Speaker 1: if how they feel determines your your guilt. So even
- 50:07Speaker 1: if you say something or do something that is completely innocent,
- 50:11Speaker 1: if someone feels harassed by it, you can still be
- 50:15Speaker 1: considered guilty by that reason. And I think we've also
- 50:21Speaker 1: talked in the past about how some of those platforms
- 50:25Speaker 1: back when X was Twitter, for instance, would take the
- 50:29Speaker 1: exact same behavior and it would be it would be
- 50:34Speaker 1: against terms of service if people with the wrong political
- 50:40Speaker 1: outlook did it, But if people with accepted political outlooks
- 50:43Speaker 1: did it, then it was okay. So feminists could call
- 50:46Speaker 1: me a bit and a cunt and call me a
- 50:50Speaker 1: gay man as a form of insult, use slurs anti
- 50:56Speaker 1: gay slurs, all kinds of stuff and conversation and get
- 51:01Speaker 1: away with it. But if I said it was idiotic
- 51:06Speaker 1: for somebody to think that somebody with the name Hannah
- 51:09Speaker 1: was mail, that would get reported and I would get
- 51:13Speaker 1: a twelve hour suspension for insulting the individual or for
- 51:18Speaker 1: for hate. You know, they could say, well, you're you're
- 51:20Speaker 1: calling them stupid, right, so that would be that that
- 51:25Speaker 1: would be basically that unequal. But you know, if you
- 51:29Speaker 1: reported the stuff they said, they would no wrongdoing would
- 51:32Speaker 1: be found. And to a degree, Trust and Safety is
- 51:35Speaker 1: still doing that. Case in point, the word retarded. Depending
- 51:41Speaker 1: on which side of the political aisle you're on, you
- 51:44Speaker 1: can use that word over and over again and no
- 51:46Speaker 1: wrongdoing is found. But if you use that word once
- 51:50Speaker 1: on the wrong side of the political isle, it's it's
- 51:53Speaker 1: a suspension. So there you go.
- 51:57Speaker 3: It should always be acceptable because we're todd it just
- 52:00Speaker 3: means slow, and it was simply used as a euphemism
- 52:05Speaker 3: after all the other euphemisms worked. The word imbecile used
- 52:11Speaker 3: to be the scientifically appropriate word, and and then that
- 52:16Speaker 3: was overused by people calling calling their mates imbecile whenever
- 52:22Speaker 3: they did something im basilic and then it got changed
- 52:26Speaker 3: to moron. Moron used to be the equivalent of the
- 52:30Speaker 3: word retard. It was what it used to be, a
- 52:35Speaker 3: scientifically applicable word. But but then people got hold of
- 52:39Speaker 3: that and started using it to call their friends whenever
- 52:44Speaker 3: they did something retarded, and then they had to change
- 52:49Speaker 3: it to retard it. It's been called the ah the
- 52:56Speaker 3: euphemism treadmill that no matter no matter what word you use,
- 53:02Speaker 3: it keeps, it keeps getting overused, and then we had
- 53:06Speaker 3: to use a different word, and then we had to
- 53:07Speaker 3: use a different word, and no matter what word we use,
- 53:11Speaker 3: it goes from politically correct to politically incorrect. And it
- 53:16Speaker 3: doesn't matter what word you change it to, it keeps
- 53:20Speaker 3: getting added to this fucking treadmill. And it's the same
- 53:24Speaker 3: problem all square words have. The fact that they that
- 53:28Speaker 3: people are offended by them is why people keep using
- 53:32Speaker 3: them because it's it's it's because it's offensive that we
- 53:38Speaker 3: make jokes about it, and it covers so many of
- 53:42Speaker 3: these things. People make jokes about women because we know
- 53:48Speaker 3: it's naughty, because we know we're not supposed to do.
- 53:52Speaker 1: That well, and what you get when people go too
- 53:57Speaker 1: far in the other direction is kind of hilarious. Like,
- 53:59Speaker 1: I used to have a boss that went to Catholic
- 54:02Speaker 1: school when she was growing up, and she was that
- 54:04Speaker 1: kid who always got pulled to the front of the class.
- 54:06Speaker 1: You're gonna sit up here by the teacher's desk because
- 54:08Speaker 1: you're misbehaving, right, She had pretty sure. She had add
- 54:12Speaker 1: she was very, very hyperactive even as an adult, and
- 54:19Speaker 1: like she couldn't sit still for a minute. But she
- 54:22Speaker 1: wouldn't if she she didn't like something. You know, a
- 54:25Speaker 1: lot of people would oh, that's retarded. She wouldn't say that.
- 54:27Speaker 1: She would say that's redundant. And I used to raz
- 54:30Speaker 1: her about it, like somebody would do something and she'd
- 54:32Speaker 1: be like, Oh, don't do that, that's redundant. And I
- 54:34Speaker 1: would say, no, they only did it once. She'd be like,
- 54:38Speaker 1: shut up, shut up.
- 54:39Speaker 2: That word doesn't mean what you think it means.
- 54:43Speaker 1: Well, I mean, she knows what it means. She just
- 54:44Speaker 1: couldn't say retarded because it was programmed out of her
- 54:47Speaker 1: in school. They probably wrapped her on the knuckles with
- 54:50Speaker 1: a stick repeatedly, a yardstick, repeatedly for saying stuff like that.
- 54:58Speaker 1: So you know, you have the She had another word
- 55:02Speaker 1: she used for it. Everybody knew she meant retarded, right,
- 55:05Speaker 1: And then there's there's the other end of it in
- 55:10Speaker 1: the industry, because I'm a direct support professional right now.
- 55:13Speaker 1: I've been a direct support professional for eleven years. And
- 55:19Speaker 1: you know, we work with intellectually disabled adults. We do
- 55:22Speaker 1: not work with retarded people. We don't call them that
- 55:25Speaker 1: because not everybody who has an intellectual disability is retarded.
- 55:30Speaker 1: I have an IQ on paper at least, and and
- 55:35Speaker 1: this this has a range, all right. The lowest score
- 55:40Speaker 1: I've ever gotten on an informal test has been one
- 55:43Speaker 1: hundred and forty five. The official score I was given
- 55:49Speaker 1: in a medical setting was one hundred and sixty five.
- 55:53Speaker 1: At one point when we thought I had a physical
- 55:56Speaker 1: disability caused by a car accident, and I started the
- 56:00Speaker 1: process of going for disability very grudgingly. Their first rejection,
- 56:06Speaker 1: they sent me to a psychiatrist, and the psychiatrist said
- 56:09Speaker 1: that my IQ was off his chart. He didn't have
- 56:11Speaker 1: a number for it, which his numbers went at least
- 56:16Speaker 1: up to two hundred. So different days I might have
- 56:19Speaker 1: different results, but I'm sticking with one hundred and sixty
- 56:22Speaker 1: five because that's what my doctor found, right. I have
- 56:26Speaker 1: an intellectual disability. I am autistic. If if I see
- 56:34Speaker 1: something happen, like a crime, and I want to tell
- 56:39Speaker 1: the police what happened, and they want to take me
- 56:42Speaker 1: in and have me sit with an artist to draw
- 56:44Speaker 1: a picture of the face of the person who did it,
- 56:48Speaker 1: I can't do that. I won't be able to tell
- 56:52Speaker 1: them what shape the eyes were, or whether the nose
- 56:54Speaker 1: is wide enough or not, whether they were smiling or frowning,
- 56:58Speaker 1: whether they like I can tell you if they sounded angry.
- 57:01Speaker 1: I can tell you if their words were angry, But
- 57:05Speaker 1: unless their facial expression was exaggerated, I won't remember it.
- 57:11Speaker 1: If you tell me your name five minutes later, I
- 57:13Speaker 1: won't remember that either, and I'll struggle for it for weeks. Right,
- 57:22Speaker 1: if you give me a puzzle to work on and
- 57:25Speaker 1: then the building catches on fire, you better drag my
- 57:28Speaker 1: ass out of there, because I'm not gonna notice. But
- 57:32Speaker 1: even though I might not notice that fire alarm going off,
- 57:36Speaker 1: if there's a beep in the background from something else,
- 57:41Speaker 1: it will drive me fucking nuts.
- 57:44Speaker 2: Like a smoke alarm.
- 57:46Speaker 1: Oh god, alarms, I absolutely and they go off so
- 57:51Speaker 1: at my work in some of the houses like they're
- 57:57Speaker 1: they're owned by an organization, so there's instead of an organization,
- 58:03Speaker 1: instead of an individual like us being able to just
- 58:05Speaker 1: go in and change the batteries, you have to report
- 58:08Speaker 1: it to maintenance that the battery has died in the
- 58:10Speaker 1: fire alarm or the smoke alarm is going off, and
- 58:13Speaker 1: of course that's not an emergency. They will come in
- 58:15Speaker 1: during the day. So if it starts going off at
- 58:18Speaker 1: ten o'clock at night and I come in at eleven thirty,
- 58:22Speaker 1: it's going to continue to do that every so many
- 58:25Speaker 1: seconds throughout the entire night while I'm there, and there's
- 58:27Speaker 1: not a single room you can go into where you
- 58:30Speaker 1: can't hear it. So like I can handle that. I
- 58:35Speaker 1: don't like it. I really don't like it, So I'm
- 58:38Speaker 1: not as bad off as some people. This kind of
- 58:42Speaker 1: thing can really interfere with an individual sometimes, but it
- 58:46Speaker 1: will help prevent me from being as effective in any
- 58:50Speaker 1: kind of like problem solving, because every time I hear that,
- 58:54Speaker 1: I lose track of my thoughts. Right, So, intellectual disability
- 59:00Speaker 1: covers a much broader spectrum of things that happen to people.
- 59:04Speaker 1: If you have attention deficit disorder, you are on the
- 59:07Speaker 1: intellectual disability spectrum if you legitimately have it, if your
- 59:12Speaker 1: teacher didn't just decide that an eight year old acting
- 59:14Speaker 1: like a normal eight year old had ADD, because ADD
- 59:17Speaker 1: is a lot more rare than it looks, because it's
- 59:21Speaker 1: over over diagnosed. Autism is a lot more rare than
- 59:24Speaker 1: it looks because it's over diagnosed. And and then of
- 59:30Speaker 1: course autism also has a spectrum. And then there are
- 59:34Speaker 1: other brain disorders that get diagnosed as autism when they're not.
- 59:40Speaker 1: So that's another problem, right, But to simplify the entire thing,
- 59:47Speaker 1: the entire spectrum to retarded is retarded. Yeah, only idiots
- 59:53Speaker 1: do that. Only morons call everybody on the intellectual disabilities
- 59:59Speaker 1: spectrum retarded. Nobody with any real intelligence would do that
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: because they have to know that they are lumping people
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: in who probably have a higher IQ than they do
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: uh and and probably could could outperform them in certain
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: areas of life in their lumping them in with people
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: who have such a low IQ that they wouldn't be
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: able to handle a hypothetical question. So so there you go.
- 1:00:34Speaker 3: But well, now at the point, now, at the point
- 1:00:36Speaker 3: where the appropriate word for such people is slow. Oh
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: my god, you're being so slow and we're going to
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: get to the point where it's uh politically incorrect to
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: call someone slow. You can't call someone slow. I have
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: a cousin who is medically slow. How dare you take
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: phone of a medical condition like being slow? And now
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: we'll need to call it something eeh else I don't.
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: Meanwhile, while the industry has moved on to referring to
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: intellectual disabilities, the state is still using mentally retarded slash
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: developmentally delayed as if you always catch up later. So
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: it's it's kinda and they they may never change that, right,
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: just like euphemisms for being black went through a whole
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: variety of different You can't call people this, you can't
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: call people that. At one point, you can't use the
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: word colored to describe somebody who is black, and the NAACP,
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: the c in CP is colored colored people.
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: That never changed. And I think it's because a lot
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: of times these organizations are fully aware that those euphemisms
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: are going to change, and it's it's too much trouble
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: to try to keep up. And I think the public
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: should take that same attitude, it's too much trouble to
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: try to keep up. My opinion is the word stupid
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: only describes people who could do better but choose not to.
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: And so if I call you stupid, I'm insulting your behavior,
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: not your intelligence. I'm suggesting that you are smarter than
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: you are acting. And I think that that's shameful. There's
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: no shame in having a handicap. You can't choose that,
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: and you can't do anything about that, and you know
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: you can only try to mitigate its effects. But if
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: you act handicapped when you're not, that should be embarrassing.
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: But so where we are now in this we are
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: looking at believe let's see. Yeah, this is review and
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: update content moderation policies, processes and systems and audit and
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: mitigate misogyny and AI based systems. So the first thing
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: I thought of is are they worried about Grock being
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: misogynist or what? And the first thing that they've said
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: here they've introduced is this this first paragraph, which is
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: very vague and didn't make any sense. The first sentence
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: didn't make any sense to me until I looked it up. Right.
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: Legislative frameworks, they say, have identified the need for user
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: agency and empowerment and started requiring platforms to be more
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: accountable and transparent about their design and policies. So what
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: the heck is the legislative framework? I understand, for instance,
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: wors legislative bodies would be say Congress in the United States,
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: Parliament in other parliamentary systems, and and in course in dictatorships.
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: It's all the same, like if the king runs everything,
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: the king is the legislative body and the executive. But
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: what the fuck is legislative framework? Because when I think
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: of a framework, I think of a set of rules,
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: a set of conditions that that that determine a particular
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: factor or issue. So I looked, I did a Google
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: search here, and of course Google's AI overview gave me
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: a definition which looks interesting and it it came from
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: sites that seemed to be well, we'll ignore YouTube, Natural
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: Resource Government Governance Institute and this exs here which if
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: we look this is this came up easier before. But
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: we'll give that a minute, right, Legislative framework is a
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: comprehensive system of laws, regulation, and legal principles that governs
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: a specific area or issue within a country, state, or organization.
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: So it's not the legislative body, it's the body and
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: the existing laws, the existing regulations and the principles on
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: which they are acting and the importance of that is
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: in the United States and in several other first world nations,
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: there is this legal principle upon which a huge amount
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: is determined called feminist juris prudence. And let's see feminist jurisprudence, which,
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: by the way, it's not just countries like the United
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: States and the UK. Countries that have traditionally been thought
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: of as in between first and third world, which many
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: of which are our first world with some third world
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: conditions like India, still have a significant infection of feminist
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: jurisprudence in their legal systems. But feminist jurisprudence or feminist
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: legal theory analyzes law from the perspective of women's political, economic,
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: and social experiences. So it is essentially legal or legislative
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: or policy based ginocentrism. It is putting women first in
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: law policy and you know, regulations and and and also
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: in the justice system in jurisprudence. So if you walk
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: into a court you get an advantage just by being
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: female starting out, that would be that would be feminist jurisprudence.
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: And that is a of course, it's not coming up. Now,
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: I wonder what the heck is going on with that site.
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: So initially I had looked this up. But it's an
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: intelligence hub. It's essentially a communications hub for a variety
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: of organizations. So this is sort of a consensus website.
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: So this legislative framework that considers, like the the things
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: that are influenced by legal principles, and then the legal
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: principles themselves governing a specific area or issue. It works
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: as a blueprint. So when they say legislative frameworks have identified,
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: what they are saying is the blueprint we are currently using,
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: which is to say, our current, guyinocentric blueprint. So the
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: interpretation of this as I'm reading it is modern feminist
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: jurisprudence based systems have identified the need for user agency
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: and empowerment. Starting started requiring platforms would be more accountable
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: and transparent in their design and policies. User agency in
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: this context then would mean women's ability to control who
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: can talk to them and how they can be spoken to.
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: That is essentially what this is about. And then the
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: first thing it mentions Australia's Online Safety Act twenty twenty one,
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: which refers to basic online safety expectations which require platforms
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: to put in place clear and readily identifiable mechanisms that
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: enable users to report and make complaints about content, as
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: well as terms of use, policies and procedures. So this
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: is essentially what they are saying here is, you know,
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: modern feminist jurisprudence requires that we impose upon social media,
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: various social media websites, an obligation to give women tools
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: to silence other people if women don't like what those
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: other people are saying. That's essentially what you and women
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: have asked for. So if you're if you happened to
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: be an anti feminist, or if you happen to be
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: a men's rights activist or both, because I'm both, and
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: there's there's quite a bit of overlap there in motivation,
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: then they want the right to tell you to shut
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: the fuck up. They want the right to get you
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: suspended for your political opinions. So the first thing they
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: mentioned Harassment Manager, developed by Google's Jigsaw. So I didn't
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: know what. I never heard of this Jigsaw thing.
- 1:10:36Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Harassment Manager, it says, is an open source codebase for
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: web application that allows users to document and manage abuse
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: targeted then targeted at them. On social media, starting with X,
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: who partnered on the project. Now, I haven't heard of this.
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: I've been using X since it was Twitter. In fact,
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: i've been using I was using Twitter since two thousand nine,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: and I never heard of this system. Nobody came to
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: me and said, hey, you can use our harassment manager.
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: Twitter is partnered with it, so apparently if they're doing this,
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: they're not making it user controlled. And essentially this is
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: intended to allow users to keep track of abuse targeting
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: them on social media. The tool intends to help users
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: identify and document harmful post muter, block perpetrators of harassment,
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: and hide harassing replies to their own tweets. Now X
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: does some of that, right you You can actually if
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: you make a post and it's you're the op and
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: not posting a comment under someone else's op. You can
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: select who can reply, but you can't just exclude one person.
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: You can decide that people who follow, people you follow
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: can reply, nobody can reply, people with a check mark
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: can reply, or everybody can reply. You don't get everybody
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: except for at takes down MRAs can reply right for instance,
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: or got I can't hear her name? The one that
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: we used, to every time she replied, we would post
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: a picture of Gladys from Bewitched, But no, she was
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: this is crazy lady on Twitter that for the longest time.
- 1:12:41Speaker 3: She was Oh, she had mice.
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: She was obsessed with Deborah Pawnee in every place that
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: and she was also obsessed with Alison. Every place that
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: either one of them posted, she was in their replies,
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: And eventually we all like blocked her and she started
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: tagging us in her posts. She would tag this whole
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: set of us. I was included in the set, unfortunately,
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: and she'd make these posts and then people would get
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: into arguments with her and we would be flooded with
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: replies from these And so it was nice when X
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: allowed people to just leave the conversation where you could
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: click leave the conversation and mute the conversation and you
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: don't get any more replies. Gladys from Bewitched was the
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: neighbor that used to spy on the family to try
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: to prove you know that they were witches. So for
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: for anybody, that's an old TV show, So for the
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: Gen xers, they'll know it. Millennials might know from the
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: movie that was made, but zoomers are gonna have no
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: clue who I'm talking about. If you look up Bewitched,
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: it was. It was just an old TV show from
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: I think the sixties. So anyway, and the lead actress
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: on that show, by the way, did an episode of
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: The Twilight Zone with Charles Bronson where she played a
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: Russian soldier and he played an American soldier or a
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: British soldier or something, and and they there had been
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: World War three and everything was completely gone, completely destroyed,
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: and they were the only people left in the world.
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: And a great episode. So just just an aside there.
- 1:14:34Speaker 3: That was the true That was the true origin of
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: the Mary Sue, just having a female character who could
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: do absolutely anything and yet has no real agency. Yeah,
- 1:14:47Speaker 3: it comes to the to the moral of the story.
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: Yeah, well that would be which not the not the
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: Twilight Zone episode, because women on the Twilight Zone did
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: have some agency, and there were some episodes that really
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: showed that. But yeah, so all this stuff, there's stuff
- 1:15:05Speaker 1: you can see that they're doing here that can be
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: traced back to this, but clearly nobody told us about this.
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: The code is available on GitHub open source for developers
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: and non governmental organizations to build and adapt for free,
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: so you can actually see this being used on other websites,
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: other social media, and essentially all of the ways that
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: you can report someone. And yes, mang Gotka ninety two,
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: that is exactly what Nattie is doing in regard to
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: Brian's posts. I'm about to start every time I see
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: her show up in a conversation, I'm in posting that
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: picture again because that is basically what's what's happening. And yes,
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: Samantha from be which John Doe is the nose wiggle Woman.
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: She would wiggle her nose and uh it would cast
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: a spell. She didn't have to actually say any words,
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: so people didn't know she was casting spells, but she
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: did face consequences. It's just it wasn't necessarily always direct.
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: Things would go horribly wrong. It's the same trope that
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: this goes back to vaudeville. The trope is you're you
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: have a goal or a thing that you want, or
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: a problem that you're trying to solve, but everything that
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: you do makes it worse until the end of the
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: show or the episode, when everything gets all wrapped up
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: by some problem solving thing that undoes all of the
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: damage that you did. Or most of it, UH, and
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: that that's that's not new, it's it's eons ago. It's
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: probably probably goes back to ancient Greek tragedies and so on.
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: But it's the main formula used UH in comedy. For
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: first sitcoms in the United States. Pretty much, you name
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: a sitcom, that's the formula. And some people have been
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: stellar at it. Like Lucille Ball for instance, that her
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: sitcom was stellar at it. That's so Raven was stellar
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: at it. Friends was stellar at it. Seinfeld stellar at it.
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: They're just different, and those sitcoms stood out because of that,
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: but very different. Like there's there's a lot of sitcoms
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: that they don't do the work and so it doesn't
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: stand out, but they still skate by because that trope
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: is always entertaining, even when it's done poorly. So it's
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: the easy bet basically in any case. Back to this,
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: what we're seeing here basically is this coordinated attack on
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: the ability of people to argue on social media, to
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: hash out ideas in a thought provoking and a method
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: that hones ideas down to what are wise choices good
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: ideas as opposed to poor choices or bad ideas. There
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: you go night motorcyclists married with children stood out because
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: it was stellar at this as well. And yeah, every
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: man can relate to al Bundy, not every women. Women
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: can relate to the women in the show, though some
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: of us relate more to al Bundy than any other
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: women in that show. But we all know those women
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: in real life in any case, So we're seeing a
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: coordinated attack on your ability as a man to defend
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: yourself against. Say feminist comes out and says all men
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: are bad because or ninety nine percent. They give different
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: numbers of violent crime is male perpetrated, and they'll give
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: you conviction statistics or crime reporting statistics from like, they
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: don't count all the crimes that are reported. They count
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: all the crimes that the police acted on in crime
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: reports statistics, so the the crimes that the police then
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: made a case file for. And also well ninety nine
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: percent of those or ninety seven percent of those are
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: male perpetrated. Well, the big problem with.
- 1:19:32Speaker 3: That is.
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: When you do the math on what percentage of the population,
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: the adult male population is represented by perpetration of violent
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: crimes as as determined by those crime reports. So essentially
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: the idea that crime if we took all those reports
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: as valid and then also supposed that crime is underreported
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: by a certain percent, and then added that percent in
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: and said this many violent crimes occurred, according to the
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: math that I just described, less than one percent of
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: the population, something like three tenths of one percent of
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: the adult male population, or at least the male population
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: that can be charged as an adult for committing such
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: a crime, is actually accounted for by perpetrators or potential
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: perpetrators of violent crimes. So the other ninety nine point
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: seven percent is represented by the number of people who
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: have never committed a violent crime. And if you argue
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: that and a feminist is offended because she was a
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: violent crime victim, she can report you for harassing her.
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: And I know this because I've been in that argument,
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: and I had a feminist using her claim to be
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: a rape victim and have had an experience as a
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: rape victim. Her allegations against the general male public and
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: her allegations against the police that they don't do anything
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: about this problem, that men don't care about this problem,
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: that rape is prevalent and most men are rapists, because
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: such a percentage of rape is perpetrated by men, and
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: so on. When I pointed out my experiences in which
- 1:21:34Speaker 1: the police do everything they can for you, but they
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: do need evidence to prove that the crime was committed,
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: that was considered harassment. Just saying that I had a
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: different experience with being victimized and how the police and
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: the people around me have responded to it. That was
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: considered harassment of this woman. And I was suspended for
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: twelve hours for saying that's not what happened in my
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: case and providing statistics that demonstrate that the majority of
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: men are not perpetrators and that it is unfair to
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: call all men potential rapists When less than three percent
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: of the population or less than three tenths of one
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: percent of the population is represented by all violent crime perpetration,
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: that's harassment, right. But if I had spoken first and
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: which which is what actually happened, and then reported her
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: for harassment because she brought up sex crimes, the conversation,
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: by the way, was not about sex crimes because I'm
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: on the wrong side of the political fens. That's not harassment.
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: Even though being a being in a survivor myself, I
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: don't really like hearing about sex crimes like I talk
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: about the situation, the subjects and everything, because it's needed.
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: There's a lot of exploitation of the subject to push
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: through attacks on due process rights and attacks on other
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: civil rights, and that's wrong. But and it has to
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: be talked about otherwise it'll just happen and it'll be
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: too late after the fact to undo that stuff. It's
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: it's a lot harder to undo bad laws than it
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: is to stop them from being passed in the first place.
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: But but yeah, So this is their their idea of
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: testing a tool for for gender based violence. All these
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: different platforms based on feminist jurisprudence as a as a
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: legal principle that governs this area or issue. All these
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: different platforms are obligated to give women the ability to
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: shut you up when they make negative stereotype characterizations of
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: men as a population, because you know, women's feelings might
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: be hurt if you prove them wrong. You guys still there.
- 1:24:33Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm eating while I listen.
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: Okay, So here's how they plan on doing this. The
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: first thing is again enhancing cross platform cooperation. Platforms they
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: say should recognize that what occurs on other platforms may
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: make its way to their own service and vice versa.
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: This is not only true of TVEC, which is technology.
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: Something like this is they they've used TFOGBV to say
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: technology facilitated online gender based violence, So this is probably
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: a technology technological violence and then some other bullshit, but
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: also of the actors and tactics of online gender based violence.
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: Online harassment campaigns targeting and individual may be coordinated on
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: one platform, with the content or URLs to this content
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: cross posted to other platforms where the targeted users may
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: or may not have accounts. So an example of what
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: they're talking about well known example. This happened years ago,
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: and consequences have never been the same. There was this
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: kid eleven years old that was a fan of a
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: local I don't even know what kind of music the
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: guy played, but some people in four chan decided that
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: this musician was a peto, and they decided they were
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: going to prove it by demonstrating how many of his
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: fans were underage, which is really kind of stupid because
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: most musicians have underage fans. People start enjoying music when
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: they're very young, and they really get excited about music
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: in like junior high and high school and start wanting
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: to go to concerts. And stuff like that. And of
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: course at those ages, you know want you want to
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: be involved in what your kids are doing. So smart
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: parents do not send their children to any type of concert,
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: musical concert, or performance without an adult chaperone, because crazy
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: things happen at concerts. But of course, yeah, this, this, uh,
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: this doesn't always pan out for local musicians. And so
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: this this young lady, young girl, eleven year old Jesse
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: Slaughter was a fan of this local musician and she
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: would she would go to all of his concerts that
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: she could go to and got a picture taken with
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: him and put it on her social media and four
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: Chan found it and used it to smear the guy.
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: And she responded that there was no such relationship happening,
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: that she was just a fan. That's that's silly. Cut
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: it out, you know, pretty pretty tame stuff. At on
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: the outset, the individuals that were uh in this conversation
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: decided to start trolling her as a result of this,
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: right uh and and and it escalated when she made
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: a YouTube video calling them out for the trolling and
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: the the idiocy. And she acted like an eleven year
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: old girl, So she made a bunch of empty threats
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: and uh got you know, graphic with her descriptions of
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: violence and you know, basically stupid ships ship that kids
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: do with the playground, like you might tell somebody you're
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: gonna rip their head off. She threatened to throw to
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: to get a glock and uh uh blow their brains out.
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: I think she used the phrase brain slushy and that
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: that set of you know, trolls or trolls that set
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: off the trolls. So they went ballistic and they docked her,
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: and they went through a process of everything from vandalizing
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: and destroying her social media to sending things to her house,
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: calling her home phone. The family actually had to send
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: her someplace else for for a time like it. It
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: really was over the top. And the thing that made
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: it worse was when they started doing this, her father
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: got on her YouTube account and made a video lecturing
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: them with a bunch of empty threats, and some of
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: those became that these are memes that again, gen x
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: will know these memes, Millennials will probably know these memes.
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: Zumer's probably never heard of. Consequences will never be the same,
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: which is one of the things he said. He threatened
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: to send a cyber police after them, which you know,
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: everybody knows didn't exist, and and so on, like there
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: are a bunch of things that came out of that
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: and that that set them off even more. But the
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: reality is the parents just didn't realize, didn't recognize that
- 1:30:05Speaker 1: you shouldn't let your kid be on the internet unsupervised.
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: Your eleven year old should not be making unsupervised YouTube
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: videos and honestly shouldn't be putting his or her face
- 1:30:20Speaker 1: out there on YouTube because there are not just trolls,
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: there's also predators and so on, and it's just it
- 1:30:32Speaker 1: escalated into something absolutely ridiculous and I think it impacted
- 1:30:38Speaker 1: her life pretty heavily. That is something that has happened
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: throughout the history of the Internet. As long as there's
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: been a web, worldwide Web, and as long as there's
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: been discussion forums, that kind of thing has happened. And
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: I guess you could call swatting and outcropping of that.
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: But in any case, so that's a that's a real issue.
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: It's not not denying that that's an issue. What I
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: am suggesting is this is not a good way to
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: handle it.
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:31:18Speaker 1: For one thing, not everybody involved in that harassment campaign
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: was from the US, right, that's there. A site like
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: four chan has traffic from every English speaking country in
- 1:31:34Speaker 1: the world, and so it's not like you can call
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: the cops and report to them that someone in Australia
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: is harassing you if you're from some state in the US. Right,
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: we all know that, and so you don't poke a
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: hornet's nest like that. But if something like that happens,
- 1:32:00Speaker 1: you can hold the people in your own country accountable.
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: The singer in question, which people who have said the
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: name and the comments and everything. I'm not going to
- 1:32:09Speaker 1: go that far, but if he was really concerned about
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: his reputation being damaged and stuff like that, all he
- 1:32:17Speaker 1: had to do was go through and identify people from
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: the US who were involved in that and sue them
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: for defamation. You know, it's like that there was really
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: something going on that put him in danger. Otherwise, the
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: best thing to do in a circumstance like that is
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: to ignore it and it goes away. They're not gonna
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: do it if it's not fun, like they can see
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: anything they want, and if nothing comes of it, if
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: they don't get any kind of feed back from you,
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: like a narcissistic feed there's most trolls are a little narcissistic.
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: That doesn't work for them, and they quit, They go
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: somewhere else, They look for that feed somewhere else. What
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: do they want? Instead, platforms should develop and operate exchange
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: channels between relevant teams, including safety and content moderation teams
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: like Trust and Safety to proactively share information about cross
- 1:33:27Speaker 1: platform harassment, such as perpetrators using multiple accounts, including where
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: relevant user reports of multi platform harassment. So, for instance,
- 1:33:37Speaker 1: during the gamer Gate controversy, some websites banned the hashtag
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: and any conversation about the consumer revolt. You couldn't talk
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: about it, you couldn't post information about it, and you
- 1:33:56Speaker 1: couldn't post memes about it. So it was kind of
- 1:34:02Speaker 1: limited to Twitter at the time. You didn't really see
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: there was a little bit on YouTube. There's a little
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: bit maybe taking place on Facebook. I think four Chan
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: completely banned it, which is funny because that used to
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: be the place to go to discuss things that you
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: couldn't discuss anywhere else. There were other platforms that banned
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: as well. But under this system that they want to create,
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: all these different social media platforms would circle the wagons
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: because the opposition to the consumer revolt was using the
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: false allegation that the entire result or the entire revolt
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: was just an active harassment some programmer's ex girlfriend to
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: try to silence it. That would be able to silence
- 1:35:02Speaker 1: it on all platforms. You wouldn't be able to talk
- 1:35:05Speaker 1: about advertising being disguised as real news stories because that
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: would be part of the harassment campaign against this girl.
- 1:35:16Speaker 1: You wouldn't be able to talk about contests being rigged
- 1:35:21Speaker 1: because that would be part of the harassment campaign against
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: this girl. You wouldn't be able to talk about any
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: kind of pay for play journalism, right because that was
- 1:35:34Speaker 1: part of the harassment campaign pain against this girl didn't
- 1:35:37Speaker 1: have anything to do with her, like she exposed it
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: by accident, but other than that, it didn't really have
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: anything to do with her. But she was more than
- 1:35:49Speaker 1: willing to capitalize on it for attention and to be
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: used as a means of silencing people who are having
- 1:35:59Speaker 1: that discus session.
- 1:36:01Speaker 3: As they say, free speech ends where where my fist
- 1:36:06Speaker 3: meets your nose, but it doesn't end where this bitches
- 1:36:11Speaker 3: vagina meets my nose or something like that.
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: Horrible experience.
- 1:36:20Speaker 3: It was a horrible experience, but that's what. As soon
- 1:36:23Speaker 3: as a woman gets involved, Oh, her fist can go
- 1:36:26Speaker 3: wherever the fuck it likes, including up her vage, and
- 1:36:30Speaker 3: then write up your nose. Let this be a lesson.
- 1:36:34Speaker 3: Is a gentlemen, and especially gentlemen, you may think you
- 1:36:37Speaker 3: have free speech until you give women the vote, and
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: then they'll stick their pussy up your nose. However the
- 1:36:45Speaker 3: fuck that works, So yeah, don't don't give women the vote,
- 1:36:49Speaker 3: all this ship will happen.
- 1:36:52Speaker 1: Just imagine, right, just imagine today, if you're on Twitter
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: X and you wanted to talk about you know, what
- 1:37:01Speaker 1: can we do to protect public speakers from what happened
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: to Charlie Kirk from being assassinated in public for talking
- 1:37:11Speaker 1: about ordinary things because everything he talked about was pretty ordinary, right,
- 1:37:17Speaker 1: And somebody was able to say, you can't say that,
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: you can't talk about that because the alleged assassin was
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: revealed to be a gay man dating and a pre
- 1:37:33Speaker 1: trans transition trans woman, and therefore it's transphobic for you
- 1:37:40Speaker 1: to use the word assassination to describe the death of
- 1:37:43Speaker 1: this man, and it's transphobic for you to be upset
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: that he was assassinated. So imagine if you couldn't have
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: that conversation because it might offend the assassin or the
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: assassin's girlfriend, boyfriend, whatever the individual is identifying as. That
- 1:38:09Speaker 1: would be about as rational and logical as saying that
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: you can't discuss the idea that you should be told
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: an ad is an AD and not be told that
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: it is a legit news story because you're offending some
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: chick that was accused of sleeping with journalists to get
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: favorable coverage for her work. It doesn't even matter if
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: she really did it or not. It's not related. None
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: of that is related, and it doesn't make that subject
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: off limits. It shouldn't make that subject off limits. But
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: that's the equivalent that they want, So what they want.
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: Platforms need to develop interoperable reporting mechanisms. You should be
- 1:39:02Speaker 1: able to report to a inter platform government basically that
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: governs Facebook and x and Reddit and YouTube any other
- 1:39:21Speaker 1: social media platform. Should be able to report to that
- 1:39:26Speaker 1: inter platform government that somebody harassed you on platform A,
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: and that individual should be affected on platforms b CD,
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: e FG all the way through the alphabet Exchange channels
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: may facilitate faster action. For example, when a prominent actor
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: is identified to be linked to repeated harmful behavior. You
- 1:39:52Speaker 1: get banned on X for bothering somebody on X, you
- 1:39:56Speaker 1: are also banned on every other social media platform. Such
- 1:40:02Speaker 1: efforts are important for understanding the scope and nature of
- 1:40:05Speaker 1: online gendermased violence, but also to coordinate mitigation actions by
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: platforms and other stakeholders, including governments, civil society, or even
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: law enforcement. Get into the wrong argument on X and
- 1:40:21Speaker 1: the cops show up at your door. Why are you
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: harassing gladys? How dare you have conversations without including her?
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: And how dare you mock her with pictures of her?
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: Her character un bewitched every time she shows up in
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: a conversation uninvited? What is wrong with you? You're under arrest?
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: Then this is an interesting bit, right This was published
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: two years ago. Already existing cross platform effort and crisis
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: protocols such as the Global Internet Forum to counter Terrorism's
- 1:41:07Speaker 1: Content Incident Protocol and the christ Church Call Crisis Response Protocol.
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: So these are two protocols that involve social media reporting
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: to them and then them assessing these reports and reporting
- 1:41:27Speaker 1: back to social media. What they should be doing should
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: consider how online gender based violence is relevant to their
- 1:41:36Speaker 1: scope and mandates, and how to strengthen mechanisms appropriately, which
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: means they want these cross platform efforts and crisis protocols
- 1:41:53Speaker 1: to be able to tell various owners or founders of
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: areas social media, so maybe gab.
- 1:42:07Speaker 3: Or truth.
- 1:42:10Speaker 1: Or any of the other alternative platforms rumble. They want
- 1:42:17Speaker 1: to be able to tell them what rules have to
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: apply to their users. Relevant voluntary commitments or coregulatory framework
- 1:42:31Speaker 1: work should also be reviewed. It says, oh, I skipped
- 1:42:38Speaker 1: something here recognizing misogyny is a radicalization factor for violent extremism.
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: So here's the that's actually kind of the meat of
- 1:42:45Speaker 1: this right here. They want essentially to be able to
- 1:42:51Speaker 1: label all anti feminist speech and all speech that women
- 1:42:55Speaker 1: take offense at which there's a lot of overlap, but
- 1:42:59Speaker 1: it's not all the same. They want to be able
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: to take that and use it as a speech that
- 1:43:06Speaker 1: can be controlled, speech that has to be controlled, and
- 1:43:09Speaker 1: an excuse to block you from speaking, so they don't
- 1:43:15Speaker 1: even have to say, for instance, you can't talk about
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: the fact that this ad that you read was presented
- 1:43:28Speaker 1: as if it was a legit news story, and you
- 1:43:31Speaker 1: think that the ad should be identified as an ad
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: instead of presenting it as a legit news story. It
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: doesn't have to even be associated with Quinn. All they
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: have to do is take the shortcut. It's misogynistic to
- 1:43:50Speaker 1: talk about anything that has to do with the game
- 1:43:54Speaker 1: or gate protest because it traces back to information that
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: was revealed by this woman's infidelity. And you can't talk
- 1:44:07Speaker 1: about a woman's infidelity, and therefore everything connected to this
- 1:44:12Speaker 1: woman's infidelity is off limits. Discussing it as misogynistic. If
- 1:44:18Speaker 1: you talk about any of these subjects, you are engaging
- 1:44:21Speaker 1: in online misogyny. Now, let's translate that to discussion of, say,
- 1:44:29Speaker 1: the Russia conspiracy theory that the Democrats put out to
- 1:44:34Speaker 1: try to stop Trump from becoming president of the United States.
- 1:44:39Speaker 1: That Russian conspiracy theory traces back to Hillary Clinton's infidelity
- 1:44:46Speaker 1: to the United States, where she took risks that people
- 1:44:53Speaker 1: in her political position are not allowed to take and
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: then used allegations of misogyny to cover for that. Oh,
- 1:45:01Speaker 1: you're only upset about this because I'm a woman. You
- 1:45:05Speaker 1: just don't think women can handle positions of authority. You
- 1:45:11Speaker 1: put sensitive information on an insecure server and then thirty
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: thousand pieces of it disappeared. We don't know which one
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: this contained. Information that could harm the country because they're gone,
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: Oh no, you're only upset about that because I'm a woman.
- 1:45:37Speaker 1: So under what they're trying to do here, any effort
- 1:45:44Speaker 1: to debunk the Russian conspiracy theory, which turned out to
- 1:45:48Speaker 1: be completely invented by the Hillary Clinton campaign, by the way,
- 1:45:53Speaker 1: complete and utter fraud. Any discussion of that fraud would
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: be silenced on social media. You couldn't argue about it,
- 1:46:03Speaker 1: you couldn't talk about it, you couldn't share evidence. Even
- 1:46:07Speaker 1: news outlets that reported on it their stories, their news
- 1:46:10Speaker 1: stories couldn't be shared on social media. You couldn't inform
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: people about it. Your vote could not be informed by
- 1:46:23Speaker 1: that information because misogyny, right, think.
- 1:46:32Speaker 2: You just hate women.
- 1:46:34Speaker 4: No, it's not the actions of one specific woman that
- 1:46:39Speaker 4: we take issue with. No, it's just you hate all
- 1:46:42Speaker 4: women and period.
- 1:46:44Speaker 2: Plump plank. That's it.
- 1:46:45Speaker 4: That is all the argument that they needed to make.
- 1:46:50Speaker 3: Yep.
- 1:46:51Speaker 1: So in the UK they had a men's rights party.
- 1:46:55Speaker 1: I think they still do. In the US we don't
- 1:46:59Speaker 1: have a men's rights part I think in India they do.
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: We should, by the way, have a men's rights political
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: party and there should be candidates and they should be men,
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: like a lot of people have, you know, jokingly in
- 1:47:15Speaker 1: in chat and throughout history, name different ones of us
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: at Honey Badger Radio for president, and of course my
- 1:47:24Speaker 1: name's been put out there. Fuck no, I have not
- 1:47:28Speaker 1: qualified for that job, and I would not do that
- 1:47:31Speaker 1: job if if elected, right, and I don't think that
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: the country is ready for a woman to do that job,
- 1:47:37Speaker 1: and I'm sure as shit wouldn't take it. As long
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: as the media uses you can't criticize this candidate because
- 1:47:48Speaker 1: of her sex, regardless of which media it is. I
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: don't care if it's left, right, up, down, back and forth,
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Nobody should be using that argument in
- 1:47:59Speaker 1: any election should you can't criticize what this person says
- 1:48:02Speaker 1: or does because because of her sex, that disqualifies all
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: women from politics. As long as it is a.
- 1:48:08Speaker 3: Thing, well, in your case, you'd get murdered.
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: I probably would.
- 1:48:14Speaker 3: It's something it's an inevitability stability we've been encountered with. Yeah,
- 1:48:24Speaker 3: if you're if you're too far out, if you if
- 1:48:26Speaker 3: you've said some spicy, too many spicy things over the years,
- 1:48:31Speaker 3: then there will just simply thrust those spicy things in
- 1:48:36Speaker 3: in into the news cycle to to bully you out
- 1:48:40Speaker 3: of ever having any office. But if they can't find
- 1:48:44Speaker 3: enough spicy things, they'll just murder you, as we've recently discovered,
- 1:48:51Speaker 3: Like if you're middle of the road but effective, they'll
- 1:48:55Speaker 3: kill you. If you're ahead of the road, uh and effective,
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: then they'll just shadow man you. And that's what happened
- 1:49:02Speaker 3: to all of us like ten years ago, and that's
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: why it's never going to happen for any of us,
- 1:49:07Speaker 3: because we were ahead of the curve. And as as
- 1:49:11Speaker 3: we've discovered all two colorfully, if you will never be
- 1:49:17Speaker 3: a you'll never be thanked for being ahead of the curve.
- 1:49:21Speaker 3: The fact that we were talking about this years before
- 1:49:23Speaker 3: anyone else was meant that we were already pushed out
- 1:49:28Speaker 3: of the limelight a long hour time ago. And and
- 1:49:35Speaker 3: and we'll never be able to to hold any even
- 1:49:40Speaker 3: potential point of office. And that's probably for the best,
- 1:49:44Speaker 3: because that's not what we do. We're not here to
- 1:49:50Speaker 3: to dive into that sharkness, and we'll never be able to.
- 1:49:58Speaker 3: And that's why we stay here in in our space
- 1:50:00Speaker 3: leper colony, trying to convince other people to look outside
- 1:50:09Speaker 3: the box. And we've suffered the consequences for doing that
- 1:50:16Speaker 3: for a long time, and we're going to keep doing it,
- 1:50:20Speaker 3: convincing people to get outside the box they live in,
- 1:50:23Speaker 3: where actually the problem is this degradation of the relationship
- 1:50:31Speaker 3: between men and women. Everyone else is looking at the
- 1:50:34Speaker 3: immigration problem and the fucking race problem and all these
- 1:50:39Speaker 3: other leaves of the poison ivy that have spawned from
- 1:50:46Speaker 3: the initial problem, and it's going to be lifetimes before
- 1:50:53Speaker 3: anyone beyond our little space leper colony can realize that
- 1:50:58Speaker 3: all of this has spawned from the degradation of the
- 1:51:03Speaker 3: relationship between men and women. Because because of the problems
- 1:51:11Speaker 3: that have been spawned from that, the race problems, the
- 1:51:16Speaker 3: trans problems, the immigration problems. Everyone's looking towards those issues
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: because they're sore, because they're so easily fixed. It's easy
- 1:51:28Speaker 3: to fix the immigration problem, just send them back. It's
- 1:51:33Speaker 3: remarkably easy to send them back. We can't send the
- 1:51:37Speaker 3: women back. The women problem is so much deeper and
- 1:51:43Speaker 3: so much more difficult because we can't just send the
- 1:51:46Speaker 3: women back. We have to deprogram the women, and that's
- 1:51:51Speaker 3: really difficult, and that's why we've faced these difficulties over
- 1:51:56Speaker 3: the last ten years or so. Because we're as seeing
- 1:52:00Speaker 3: the seeds of the problem, not the leaves. I know,
- 1:52:02Speaker 3: that's the metaphor I keep using, but it's true, and
- 1:52:07Speaker 3: that's you know, we're we're planting trees under which the
- 1:52:17Speaker 3: shade of which we will we will never sit under,
- 1:52:20Speaker 3: as as the Greek proverb goes, and so yeah, we'll we'll,
- 1:52:27Speaker 3: we'll never get in positions of power, will never have
- 1:52:29Speaker 3: statues built of us. In fact, we're going to disappear
- 1:52:33Speaker 3: into history, despite having inspired people to do what they're
- 1:52:37Speaker 3: doing now. Even the Charlie Kirks of the world, the
- 1:52:43Speaker 3: people actually facing death, they're they're here because of Wait,
- 1:52:50Speaker 3: this sounds really convoluted, but yeah, they're they're here because
- 1:52:55Speaker 3: the likes of us were here ten years ago. The
- 1:52:57Speaker 3: people who appeared five years ago to address the leaves
- 1:53:04Speaker 3: of the poison ivy are in far greater danger and
- 1:53:09Speaker 3: have found much more to gain and far much more
- 1:53:11Speaker 3: to lose than we did having appeared ten years ago
- 1:53:15Speaker 3: addressing the seeds of the problem, and the seeds of
- 1:53:18Speaker 3: the problem are the degradation of the relationship between men
- 1:53:23Speaker 3: and women. It's going to take a long time for
- 1:53:27Speaker 3: even the prominent voices of the so called right to
- 1:53:31Speaker 3: even begin to understand why they're even here in the
- 1:53:34Speaker 3: first place, why we have these these these racial problems,
- 1:53:39Speaker 3: and these immigration problems and these trans problems. It's it's
- 1:53:43Speaker 3: all because of well, not even feminism. It's because of
- 1:53:49Speaker 3: what came before feminism. There, I say, romantic Chivalry's it
- 1:53:54Speaker 3: hasn't been around for the last century. It's been around
- 1:53:57Speaker 3: for the last millennium. It goes back far, far, further
- 1:54:02Speaker 3: back into history than than that. Then most people can
- 1:54:08Speaker 3: even comprehend. And so you know, it might take another
- 1:54:13Speaker 3: thousand years to really fix this, and you know, mm hm,
- 1:54:23Speaker 3: so don't worry about it, folks, We're all going to
- 1:54:27Speaker 3: be long dead before any of this is fixed. But
- 1:54:31Speaker 3: but carry on doing your ship with your bad self.
- 1:54:35Speaker 3: You're not going to get statues, you're not going to
- 1:54:38Speaker 3: get books written about you or Hollywood movies written about you.
- 1:54:43Speaker 3: We're here to just chip away slowly this problem. And
- 1:54:52Speaker 3: we're not in it for the glory. We're in it
- 1:54:55Speaker 3: for for the for the We're in it for the
- 1:54:58Speaker 3: long haul. Yeah.
- 1:55:02Speaker 4: I mean, I would say this to anyone who feels like,
- 1:55:07Speaker 4: you know, this is just a fool's errand what we're
- 1:55:11Speaker 4: doing here, you know, ten years ago. Maybe longer than that,
- 1:55:17Speaker 4: but I would estimate about ten years ago, nobody gave
- 1:55:21Speaker 4: a shit. The feminists did not give a shit about
- 1:55:24Speaker 4: us because they knew they could just ignore us, and
- 1:55:28Speaker 4: oh well, nobody's paying attention to these people. The fact
- 1:55:31Speaker 4: that they are reacting so viscerally to what we are
- 1:55:36Speaker 4: saying and the things that we're doing speaks volumes as
- 1:55:40Speaker 4: far as I'm concerned, because if they didn't understand that
- 1:55:44Speaker 4: we were a direct threat to their narrative, they would
- 1:55:47Speaker 4: just keep silent.
- 1:55:49Speaker 2: But they're not.
- 1:55:51Speaker 4: They are making their own little feminist manifestos, right, and no,
- 1:55:59Speaker 4: they are direct attacking us as people, as human beings
- 1:56:04Speaker 4: just living on this earth and having an opinion. They
- 1:56:08Speaker 4: can't kill all of us.
- 1:56:09Speaker 2: They can't. They can't Charlie Kirk all of us. They
- 1:56:14Speaker 2: probably wish that they could.
- 1:56:16Speaker 4: But you know, for what it's worth, right now, we
- 1:56:20Speaker 4: are the thorn in their fucking side. And I would
- 1:56:27Speaker 4: like everyone to who is listening to this to come
- 1:56:30Speaker 4: away with that type of energy. You know, there's times
- 1:56:32Speaker 4: when I feel like, man, we've been at this for
- 1:56:36Speaker 4: how long, you know, and it seems like such slow momentum.
- 1:56:42Speaker 4: But when you see articles and you see things like
- 1:56:47Speaker 4: the Department of Homeland Security directly labeling this group as
- 1:56:53Speaker 4: a terrorist. Is that what they call this terrorist or
- 1:56:58Speaker 4: a domestic threat?
- 1:57:01Speaker 1: Yeah, we have. We've been put on a number of
- 1:57:04Speaker 1: academic lists and one non academic list, and then also
- 1:57:12Speaker 1: where we've been maligned by the SPLC.
- 1:57:17Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I would wear that as a badge of
- 1:57:20Speaker 4: fucking pride.
- 1:57:21Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you can't.
- 1:57:23Speaker 4: You can't cancel all of us. You can't just you
- 1:57:28Speaker 4: can't throw us all in the fucking bend of history.
- 1:57:32Speaker 4: It's not going to happen, you know.
- 1:57:34Speaker 2: They they they assassinated Charlie Kirk.
- 1:57:38Speaker 4: What the hell do you think that that's going to do.
- 1:57:40Speaker 2: It's only going to spawn.
- 1:57:42Speaker 4: There's ten more Charlie Kirks just spawned overnight, you know,
- 1:57:47Speaker 4: there are I saw a video of children in high school,
- 1:57:50Speaker 4: high school kids standing up to their administration basically standing
- 1:57:58Speaker 4: for Charlie Kirk. And again, any kind of teacher in
- 1:58:02Speaker 4: their classrooms in their schools, who would you know, mock
- 1:58:07Speaker 4: his death. I'm telling you, there's there's a It's unfortunate
- 1:58:15Speaker 4: that it had to happen this way, but there's a
- 1:58:20Speaker 4: real change happening here, and I think more people are
- 1:58:26Speaker 4: gonna wake up. I think it's harder to wake up
- 1:58:28Speaker 4: from the feminist nightmare, you know. But what we're looking
- 1:58:37Speaker 4: at is a generation of up and coming truth seekers.
- 1:58:44Speaker 2: And as long as.
- 1:58:46Speaker 4: You have that kind of energy and we keep putting
- 1:58:48Speaker 4: out this messages and pointing to the actual, real facts,
- 1:58:53Speaker 4: I think there can be nothing.
- 1:58:55Speaker 2: But a bigger.
- 1:58:59Speaker 4: Suath of of individuals saying hey, you know what, that
- 1:59:04Speaker 4: makes sense. It doesn't sound like hey, it sounds like
- 1:59:08Speaker 4: actual truth. And I've seen this happen in my own lifetime.
- 1:59:13Speaker 4: So yeah, no, maybe these people are telling the truth.
- 1:59:16Speaker 4: Maybe we should stand against what these feminist academics are
- 1:59:21Speaker 4: trying to shove down our throats because we can visualize
- 1:59:26Speaker 4: and actually see the lies that are being told to us.
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:59:33Speaker 4: So I'm full of hope.
- 1:59:35Speaker 2: I'm full of hope.
- 1:59:37Speaker 1: I am too. I am too.
- 1:59:41Speaker 3: You know.
- 1:59:41Speaker 1: It's easy to get black pilled on this stuff, but yeah,
- 1:59:44Speaker 1: you have to realize, like, besides the fact that there's
- 1:59:47Speaker 1: been a significant amount of change in the last ten years,
- 1:59:50Speaker 1: which most people don't realize this, but that's actually a
- 1:59:55Speaker 1: large amount of progress, just going from the fact that Uh,
- 2:00:02Speaker 1: you know, people are not being so easily canceled for
- 2:00:06Speaker 1: for stupid jokes about dongles and Dick's right to the
- 2:00:14Speaker 1: fact that we are holding people accountable for advocating violence
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: against individuals on the basis of just political speech. That's
- 2:00:24Speaker 1: a huge leap in a ten year space. And we
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: we weren't the first people to talk about this stuff.
- 2:00:32Speaker 1: We were early at at the beginning of the sweeping changes. Yeah, right,
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: but we were were we stand on the shoulders of giants, yes,
- 2:00:44Speaker 1: And this type of discussion goes back centuries and in
- 2:00:51Speaker 1: more recent history before us, you know, existed like Paul
- 2:00:57Speaker 1: Elam of A Voice for Men was in operation before us.
- 2:01:02Speaker 1: In fact, Alison and Karen and I getting together, Paul
- 2:01:08Speaker 1: was instrumental in that. He wasn't the the instrument of that,
- 2:01:14Speaker 1: but he was instrumental in us starting to work together.
- 2:01:17Speaker 1: And A Voice for Men was the first host for
- 2:01:21Speaker 1: Hunter Honey Badger Radio, So you know we have we
- 2:01:26Speaker 1: have him to thank and their crew to think. Uh.
- 2:01:30Speaker 1: And before all of that, you had doctor Warren Ferrell,
- 2:01:35Speaker 1: who wrote about these issues back when nobody was talking
- 2:01:38Speaker 1: about them and was canceled. He was he was part
- 2:01:43Speaker 1: of the National Organization for Women, and he was he
- 2:01:47Speaker 1: was approaching gender issues from a neutral standpoint. They didn't
- 2:01:51Speaker 1: like that. And when he started talking about women are
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: making progress, there are issues affecting men, and men need
- 2:01:59Speaker 1: to make progress too, they canceled him. They didn't just
- 2:02:03Speaker 1: cancel him, they lied about him. They defamed him in
- 2:02:08Speaker 1: some of the most egregious ways, by deliberately misinterpreting things
- 2:02:12Speaker 1: he said to mean the exact fucking pullar opposite of
- 2:02:18Speaker 1: what they actually meant, in order to make him sound
- 2:02:22Speaker 1: like some sort of incests supporting pedophile, which was a
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: bullshit argument. They lied about him, right, And even before that,
- 2:02:33Speaker 1: you had researchers like Mary Strass who lost their entire careers,
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: who were completely canceled simply for pointing out the difference
- 2:02:45Speaker 1: between accurate research and ideologically biased research in the field
- 2:02:55Speaker 1: of research into intimate partner and sexual violence prevalence, where
- 2:03:00Speaker 1: feminists were trying to make these things look more prevalent
- 2:03:03Speaker 1: than they really were and more gendered than they really were,
- 2:03:08Speaker 1: and he pushed back against that and got canceled, got
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: lied about. This goes all the way back to the
- 2:03:18Speaker 1: beginning of the twentieth century, when when Ernest Belford Backs
- 2:03:24Speaker 1: was writing about feminist ideas and ideals and what we
- 2:03:32Speaker 1: would today call feminist jurisprudence in law and policy. Back then,
- 2:03:38Speaker 1: there was no feminist jurisprudence. It was just gynocentrism. Things
- 2:03:43Speaker 1: like the badger game where a woman would you know,
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: flirt with a guy and then get him into a
- 2:03:54Speaker 1: compromising position and then claim to be know, get get
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: caught in this compromising position and claim to be reputationally
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: injured by him and demand money as a type of scam.
- 2:04:10Speaker 1: H And I was that was very prevalent at the time.
- 2:04:15Speaker 1: You know, he talked about all those kinds of things.
- 2:04:17Speaker 1: He talked about the demands of the suffragettes and and everything.
- 2:04:22Speaker 1: You can actually find the writings of BACS Ernest Belford
- 2:04:27Speaker 1: Backs documented on a voice for men dot com. So
- 2:04:32Speaker 1: if you search for that, you can search for that
- 2:04:36Speaker 1: name Ernest Belford Backs and a voice formen dot com
- 2:04:42Speaker 1: together and it'll probably take you right to his writings.
- 2:04:47Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I do have hope simply because there
- 2:04:55Speaker 1: was not so much. It was a losing battle for
- 2:04:57Speaker 1: a century, and now we are seeing some change. And
- 2:05:05Speaker 1: that's like for for a century there was no change.
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: So that's progress, even if it's not the rapid progress
- 2:05:13Speaker 1: we would like to see.
- 2:05:13Speaker 2: I would.
- 2:05:14Speaker 1: I don't want to play the long game. I want
- 2:05:16Speaker 1: everything better now. I'll do this for as long as
- 2:05:21Speaker 1: it needs done, or at least as long as I'm around.
- 2:05:25Speaker 1: But I don't want it to need done that long
- 2:05:29Speaker 1: because as long as it needs done, men are suffering,
- 2:05:32Speaker 1: and men are facing discrimination when they shouldn't be suffering,
- 2:05:36Speaker 1: and they shouldn't be facing discrimination, and women are self
- 2:05:42Speaker 1: sabotaging the entire time, and that's wrong too.
- 2:05:46Speaker 3: Yeah, but.
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: I'm gonna finish this up with the end of this
- 2:05:53Speaker 1: paragraph and we'll get into the next bit next time.
- 2:05:57Speaker 1: But what is this boiler down to? What do they
- 2:06:00Speaker 1: want to do here? And this is what they're talking
- 2:06:07Speaker 1: about right here, coregulatory frameworks, right the EU's twenty twenty
- 2:06:16Speaker 1: two strengthen Code of Practice on Discrimination, which keeps or
- 2:06:23Speaker 1: on this disinformation, not discrimination, but it keeps people from
- 2:06:26Speaker 1: debating the truth of matters like what is really going
- 2:06:33Speaker 1: on with this virus that's circling the world? Now? What
- 2:06:38Speaker 1: is really going on with the various medical treatments that
- 2:06:42Speaker 1: are being imposed on people that people are being told
- 2:06:45Speaker 1: you can't have a job if you don't do this.
- 2:06:48Speaker 1: What is really going on with practices of keeping people
- 2:06:54Speaker 1: at home, shutting down whole cities and so on, And
- 2:06:59Speaker 1: you couldn't talk about that because you might be accused
- 2:07:03Speaker 1: of spreading disinformation rather than having you know, if you
- 2:07:07Speaker 1: say something that's not true, other people can present evidence
- 2:07:11Speaker 1: that you were wrong, and that ends that that tangent
- 2:07:17Speaker 1: of that discussion. Oh, here's the evidence that debunks what
- 2:07:20Speaker 1: you just said.
- 2:07:21Speaker 3: Right.
- 2:07:23Speaker 1: No, instead the government comes in and maybe you get
- 2:07:28Speaker 1: arrested for saying the thing that you said right, rather
- 2:07:33Speaker 1: than people being able to debate the validity of what
- 2:07:36Speaker 1: you said. And in this includes a commitment, as it
- 2:07:42Speaker 1: says here, to operate channels of exchange between their relevant teams.
- 2:07:46Speaker 1: So between again, all these various social media if you
- 2:07:50Speaker 1: say something on Facebook that X doesn't like, or if
- 2:07:53Speaker 1: you say something on X that Reddit doesn't like, Reddit
- 2:07:56Speaker 1: takes issue with fucking everything, Suddenly you're in trouble again.
- 2:08:02Speaker 1: Maybe you get banned from all social media, Maybe that
- 2:08:05Speaker 1: comment gets taken down, maybe they do what YouTube likes
- 2:08:09Speaker 1: to do, and just it's suddenly that video is private,
- 2:08:14Speaker 1: that comment is nobody's allowed to respond to it, or
- 2:08:18Speaker 1: maybe they do what Reddit likes to do, and you
- 2:08:21Speaker 1: can post all you want, but nobody can see anything
- 2:08:23Speaker 1: you've posted, right, and you have no idea, They don't
- 2:08:29Speaker 1: tell you, So exchange between their relevant teams, share information
- 2:08:37Speaker 1: about cross platform influence operations. They don't want you persuading
- 2:08:43Speaker 1: anyone else to agree that maybe men are human, and
- 2:08:49Speaker 1: maybe all these these guynocentric laws and policies are being
- 2:08:55Speaker 1: used as a chisel to chip away at civil rights
- 2:09:02Speaker 1: by throwing men under the bus. Maybe you can't talk
- 2:09:06Speaker 1: about that. What's the goal preventing dissemination and resurgence. They
- 2:09:22Speaker 1: want to prevent you from having conversations about political issues
- 2:09:30Speaker 1: using logic, reason and facts because you might not come
- 2:09:34Speaker 1: to the conclusions that they want you to agree with.
- 2:09:42Speaker 1: Committed channels could extend to incidents of gendered or sexualized
- 2:09:47Speaker 1: harassment campaigns again, like the so called harassment campaign against
- 2:09:52Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton for her infidelity to the United States. You
- 2:09:57Speaker 1: can't debunk conspiracy theory because that's misogynistic. It's about Hillary.
- 2:10:07Speaker 1: You can't inform your vote on the fact that the
- 2:10:10Speaker 1: Democrat Party baldfaced lied to you because that's misogynistic. It
- 2:10:16Speaker 1: traces back to Hillary. Why they want to do that.
- 2:10:25Speaker 1: Such an effort could be seen as beneficial to compliance
- 2:10:29Speaker 1: with the EU's DSA, under which platforms are required to
- 2:10:34Speaker 1: assess and mitigate systemic risk related.
- 2:10:37Speaker 2: To online gender based violence.
- 2:10:44Speaker 1: When are they really trying to get rid of systemic
- 2:10:46Speaker 1: risk that the political establishment cannot control how the electorate votes.
- 2:10:56Speaker 3: I ran to picture what the world would be like
- 2:11:00Speaker 3: if Kamala Harris was president right now, I don't. We'd
- 2:11:06Speaker 3: be in thermonuclear war with Russia, and if anyone protested
- 2:11:10Speaker 3: against it, they'd be called not only misogynistic but racist.
- 2:11:16Speaker 3: And that would be our future forever because there'd be
- 2:11:20Speaker 3: millions of illegal immigrants in the country who would forever
- 2:11:24Speaker 3: be voting for Come out Kamala Harris and descendants. God
- 2:11:30Speaker 3: knows who that would even be. But yeah, like, I
- 2:11:35Speaker 3: don't think Trump is a saint by any means. I
- 2:11:40Speaker 3: don't think he's I even think he's lawless in any way.
- 2:11:45Speaker 3: But for God's sake, folks, just for a moment, look
- 2:11:49Speaker 3: through a pin the whole camera at what the world
- 2:11:52Speaker 3: would be like if Kamala Harris was president, or if
- 2:11:56Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton had been president from twenty sixteen through to
- 2:12:02Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. I mean, at this point Kamala Harris
- 2:12:06Speaker 3: would be president. The world you would have right now
- 2:12:11Speaker 3: would be the world we have in the UK right now,
- 2:12:15Speaker 3: where there's just there's just no escape from the communist revolution.
- 2:12:23Speaker 3: So yeah, fucking take the piss out of Trump all
- 2:12:28Speaker 3: you like. But the alternative would have been infinitely worse,
- 2:12:37Speaker 3: and I mean infinitely because it would go on forever.
- 2:12:39Speaker 3: It would be the big brother future, the big brother
- 2:12:42Speaker 3: future that Europe is experiencing right now. Please let me in,
- 2:12:48Speaker 3: Please let me in. Please don't let me leave this continent.
- 2:12:50Speaker 3: I don't want to go home, to ever go home.
- 2:12:54Speaker 3: Please let me stay. Not in Canada. Canada looks just
- 2:12:59Speaker 3: as much.
- 2:13:02Speaker 2: Unfortunately.
- 2:13:04Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I wonder how long it'll be before being
- 2:13:11Speaker 1: threatened with arrest for saying the wrong thing on social
- 2:13:14Speaker 1: media will be a reason why Europeans can ask for
- 2:13:19Speaker 1: asylum in the United States, because I think that's coming.
- 2:13:23Speaker 1: And as as far as Hillary is concerned, people always
- 2:13:25Speaker 1: say I get overboard on Hillary Clinton, but you have
- 2:13:28Speaker 1: to understand I watched the way that she behaved during
- 2:13:33Speaker 1: her husband's presidency, and I watched the news that came
- 2:13:37Speaker 1: out about them, the personal news that came out about
- 2:13:41Speaker 1: what she was like behind the scenes and everything. And
- 2:13:45Speaker 1: I firmly believe, beyond even the slightest shadow of a doubt,
- 2:13:51Speaker 1: that if she got into office, she would be the
- 2:13:53Speaker 1: last president of the United States. I will not elaborate
- 2:13:59Speaker 1: on that. You guys can figure that out for yourselves,
- 2:14:06Speaker 1: but that is the truth. That is what I think
- 2:14:08Speaker 1: of Hillary Clinton. And I don't think anybody was scarier
- 2:14:14Speaker 1: that ran for office during my lifetime, even the guy
- 2:14:18Speaker 1: that wanted to get rid of all the nukes. God,
- 2:14:22Speaker 1: that was like I was in high school, junior higher
- 2:14:25Speaker 1: high school, Mondale wanted to disarm it, ran against Reagan
- 2:14:31Speaker 1: or Bush, and he was scary, but he wasn't as
- 2:14:35Speaker 1: scary as Hillary Clinton. So, and that's not about misogyny.
- 2:14:43Speaker 1: That's about the kind of person she is. Yeah, if
- 2:14:47Speaker 1: she was a man, she would be just as scary,
- 2:14:50Speaker 1: minus the fact that you know, at least as a man,
- 2:14:54Speaker 1: we could criticize her without having people say you only
- 2:14:57Speaker 1: say that because she's a woman, Like that's the only difference.
- 2:15:02Speaker 1: All of our ideas would be just as scary. But
- 2:15:06Speaker 1: as a candidate, she's scarier as a woman. Because she
- 2:15:10Speaker 1: can use allegations of misogyny to try to shut down criticism.
- 2:15:16Speaker 1: And yeah, Mondale was made a joke. They wouldn't have
- 2:15:19Speaker 1: been able to do that if he was female. Ducaucus
- 2:15:23Speaker 1: was eliminated because of sexual misconduct, they wouldn't have been
- 2:15:28Speaker 1: able to do that if he was a female. Various
- 2:15:32Speaker 1: other candidates that the establishment didn't like were eliminated. I
- 2:15:37Speaker 1: was not a Mondale fan personally. I thought that was
- 2:15:40Speaker 1: a scary idea of being the first to disarm. I
- 2:15:44Speaker 1: think that that's not a good way to achieve peace.
- 2:15:49Speaker 1: I agree with both both Kennedy and Reagan on the
- 2:15:54Speaker 1: idea that being able to eliminate your puts you in
- 2:16:02Speaker 1: a position to argue for peace that being unable to
- 2:16:06Speaker 1: defend yourself doesn't. But in any case, that's essentially my
- 2:16:14Speaker 1: take on the candidates throughout the last I guess thirty years. Really,
- 2:16:22Speaker 1: I'm fifty three, been eligible to vote since nineteen ninety two,
- 2:16:31Speaker 1: and like even prior to that, I guess forty years.
- 2:16:37Speaker 1: I've been alert and aware of politics for the last
- 2:16:40Speaker 1: forty years, ever since I started paying attention during the
- 2:16:46Speaker 1: Reagan administration. And yeah, out of everybody, the scariest was
- 2:16:55Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. Even Kamala Harris was not as scary as
- 2:16:58Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. Harris was a puppet. I don't think it was.
- 2:17:02Speaker 2: Yeah, No, Kamalin was toothless.
- 2:17:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:17:07Speaker 2: Hillary just had this this.
- 2:17:12Speaker 4: Uh hope like if I can use that word backing
- 2:17:17Speaker 4: that I just never understood.
- 2:17:19Speaker 2: I think it was like, you know, all the women.
- 2:17:21Speaker 4: Who were looking for some sort of revenge and it
- 2:17:26Speaker 4: it always bothered me that, you know, these people who
- 2:17:30Speaker 4: are well all right feminists supported her even after uh
- 2:17:40Speaker 4: Bill Clinton got caught with Monica Lewinsky, right, and she.
- 2:17:44Speaker 2: Stayed, She stayed with him. You would think that feminists
- 2:17:48Speaker 2: would be like, oh, what are you doing. You got
- 2:17:51Speaker 2: to leave that one man? He ain't no good. Nope, nope.
- 2:17:54Speaker 4: They stood right by her side even after she stayed.
- 2:17:59Speaker 4: And it's like, wait a minute, how does that align
- 2:18:02Speaker 4: with any of your mantra? Right, Like you're independent, you
- 2:18:07Speaker 4: could be independent single women and you can do it all.
- 2:18:11Speaker 2: And blah blah, you don't need no man.
- 2:18:13Speaker 4: But she stayed with him. And we all know why
- 2:18:19Speaker 4: you don't leave a fucking former or sitting president as
- 2:18:25Speaker 4: their wife, because that gives you you have access to
- 2:18:29Speaker 4: that power. You know, and that's what she used throughout
- 2:18:33Speaker 4: the room after he was out of office.
- 2:18:36Speaker 2: That's what she used to gain the position that she
- 2:18:40Speaker 2: had moving forward.
- 2:18:42Speaker 4: And you know, I'm glad that people saw through that
- 2:18:48Speaker 4: and and saw her for what she was. You know,
- 2:18:51Speaker 4: when she when she laughed at Gaddafi's desk, she danced
- 2:18:57Speaker 4: on his grave, and you know, some people who were
- 2:19:04Speaker 4: aware and awake and you know, actually paying attention saw
- 2:19:09Speaker 4: that and saw her for the demonish ghoul that she is.
- 2:19:16Speaker 4: But you know, for the Democratic Party was still had
- 2:19:20Speaker 4: such a stronghold and you know, you know, well the
- 2:19:25Speaker 4: rest is history, right, and so is she and her
- 2:19:29Speaker 4: presidential hopes.
- 2:19:32Speaker 3: By you, if all you're interested in is growing your
- 2:19:37Speaker 3: own personal wealth, then a president who went from what
- 2:19:42Speaker 3: was it fifteen million to two hundred and fifty million
- 2:19:45Speaker 3: in in his tenure as president, like, oh yeah, you
- 2:19:51Speaker 3: go to Fstein's Island and fuck a million underage girls,
- 2:19:55Speaker 3: and I'll give the fuck because I want two hundred
- 2:19:57Speaker 3: and fifty million every eight years. Yeah, they're probably billionaires
- 2:20:02Speaker 3: by now. What we're being disclosed as their public wealth
- 2:20:05Speaker 3: is probably a fraction of what's going on. They they
- 2:20:09Speaker 3: are there to line their own pockets, as has every
- 2:20:13Speaker 3: president except Trump in almost the entire history of American
- 2:20:20Speaker 3: politics and in the politics in every country. This is
- 2:20:23Speaker 3: the problem with democracy. Both one of the one of
- 2:20:30Speaker 3: the the only presidents to have lost money in his
- 2:20:36Speaker 3: in his time in office.
- 2:20:38Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean has there has there been another president
- 2:20:42Speaker 4: that renounced his salary.
- 2:20:45Speaker 3: There's only been four. George Washington was one, there were
- 2:20:49Speaker 3: two others, and then there was Trump.
- 2:20:52Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:20:52Speaker 3: This is why it's important to let rich people run
- 2:20:55Speaker 3: for office, people who can't be four. Yeah. For everything
- 2:21:02Speaker 3: these fucking socialists say about the billionaires of the problem,
- 2:21:06Speaker 3: we should let the billion billionaires be in charge. People
- 2:21:09Speaker 3: who don't stand to gain any wealth from having one
- 2:21:13Speaker 3: hundred grand a year wedge through kids that don't give
- 2:21:16Speaker 3: a shit about that. We want people in office who
- 2:21:19Speaker 3: who don't give a shit about the wages they can
- 2:21:22Speaker 3: get or even the blood money they can get, because
- 2:21:26Speaker 3: they're already rich. Trump was already a billionaire when he
- 2:21:29Speaker 3: entered office. He didn't need any more money. And this
- 2:21:32Speaker 3: is why we need kings, because kings are already so
- 2:21:39Speaker 3: rich that they cannot be bought. And this is why
- 2:21:44Speaker 3: monarchism is better than democracy. And I know this is
- 2:21:47Speaker 3: going to rub a lot of Americans the wrong way,
- 2:21:50Speaker 3: So I'll stop talking.
- 2:21:54Speaker 1: It's kind of like saying shit with corn and it
- 2:21:58Speaker 1: is better than ship with rice and it Yeah. Still government, yeah,
- 2:22:04Speaker 1: still a form of government. Right, there's you're you're talking
- 2:22:08Speaker 1: to it anarcho capitalists here. I uh, I don't want
- 2:22:12Speaker 1: anybody in charge, right, That's that's the other reason why
- 2:22:16Speaker 1: if somebody tried to thrust me into that particular job,
- 2:22:21Speaker 1: I would I would turn it down. I don't believe
- 2:22:24Speaker 1: it should exist.
- 2:22:26Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:22:27Speaker 1: So if I was put in that position and couldn't
- 2:22:32Speaker 1: get out of it, then I would just settle set
- 2:22:34Speaker 1: about dismantling the system entirely. Like people are upset that
- 2:22:38Speaker 1: Trump is making changes to the system that, in my opinion,
- 2:22:43Speaker 1: are minor.
- 2:22:46Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:22:48Speaker 4: So meanwhile, these are all the same people that that
- 2:22:51Speaker 4: say that they hate government, right, Well, he's doing things
- 2:22:58Speaker 4: to reduce the power and the money that is being spent,
- 2:23:03Speaker 4: and it's it's just it's just such a mind fuck
- 2:23:06Speaker 4: for them that they can because it's Trump, right, they
- 2:23:10Speaker 4: hate him, so anything if he cured cancer, yep, they
- 2:23:17Speaker 4: would have a problem with that too.
- 2:23:19Speaker 1: Oh my god, Look how many oncologists he's putting out
- 2:23:22Speaker 1: of work. Right news for you. On college oncologists would
- 2:23:29Speaker 1: love to be out of that job and into some
- 2:23:32Speaker 1: other area of medicine. Yeah, they have to prepare themselves
- 2:23:37Speaker 1: on a regular basis to tell people that they're going
- 2:23:39Speaker 1: to die and nothing, nothing that the doctor is going
- 2:23:41Speaker 1: to do can can can save them. Yeah. But to
- 2:23:47Speaker 1: finish this up, I will say this again, as we've
- 2:23:56Speaker 1: been we've been told a million times. We've been told
- 2:23:59Speaker 1: that you and women as toothless. They don't they don't
- 2:24:03Speaker 1: do anything. They're just they're they're not an actual you
- 2:24:06Speaker 1: in organization. They're not actually influential. They don't get anything done,
- 2:24:10Speaker 1: they don't affect anything. Uh and and they're not part
- 2:24:15Speaker 1: of anything. Well, what they are talking about here is
- 2:24:20Speaker 1: stuff that has been implemented.
- 2:24:25Speaker 3: Right.
- 2:24:26Speaker 1: Therefore, you have to consider that they have influence and
- 2:24:30Speaker 1: that they are informing changes in government law and policy
- 2:24:37Speaker 1: and also in corporate policy. And in some ways, corporate
- 2:24:42Speaker 1: policy is even more dangerous because you can't you can't
- 2:24:46Speaker 1: use the Bill of Rights against a corporation. You can
- 2:24:49Speaker 1: use the Bill of Rights against the government. The Bill
- 2:24:51Speaker 1: of Rights tells things the government cannot do, things that
- 2:24:56Speaker 1: the government cannot take away basically from the citizens in
- 2:25:00Speaker 1: the United States. So you could sue if the federal
- 2:25:03Speaker 1: government passed a law that said, you can't discuss this
- 2:25:07Speaker 1: political issue because it traces back to something that we
- 2:25:11Speaker 1: can use to accuse you of misogyny, But you can't
- 2:25:14Speaker 1: necessarily sue if Facebook does that. Facebook doesn't isn't governed
- 2:25:22Speaker 1: by the Bill of Rights. Now, if you can prove
- 2:25:26Speaker 1: that the government paid Facebook to do that, then you
- 2:25:30Speaker 1: have a case, but that involves actually having access to
- 2:25:36Speaker 1: that information. So this is some heavy stuff. This is
- 2:25:44Speaker 1: essentially an organization that is masquerading as a toothless ladies
- 2:25:53Speaker 1: club for political discussion among ladies around the world and
- 2:25:59Speaker 1: ambassadors or that has actually got its teeth into every
- 2:26:04Speaker 1: government around the world and many corporations, including the ones
- 2:26:11Speaker 1: that govern what you can and can't say online. Very dangerous.
- 2:26:19Speaker 1: Next week will probably gloss over some of this will
- 2:26:24Speaker 1: essentially I might not directly read the entire paragraph of
- 2:26:28Speaker 1: each of these things, but I will highlight a bit
- 2:26:32Speaker 1: here and a bit there, because this is about the
- 2:26:36Speaker 1: use of AI systems to censor your online speech, all right.
- 2:26:45Speaker 1: And then the next thing that we are going to
- 2:26:49Speaker 1: look at based on this is this Act to End
- 2:26:59Speaker 1: Violence Against Women and Girls program, which we do have
- 2:27:05Speaker 1: already up to look at. It'll probably reload a bunch
- 2:27:08Speaker 1: of times. It's not super long like this other thing is.
- 2:27:13Speaker 1: I'm not skipping a bunch of it in order to
- 2:27:15Speaker 1: show you what it looks like, so we'll be able
- 2:27:18Speaker 1: to go over it, possibly more quickly, and then we
- 2:27:21Speaker 1: will get into what you and women says about how
- 2:27:28Speaker 1: to counter the manisphere. So that's our trajectory here, that is,
- 2:27:33Speaker 1: unless something else comes up that we absolutely have to
- 2:27:36Speaker 1: talk about instead. If nothing else comes up that we
- 2:27:40Speaker 1: absolutely have to talk about instead, this is the direction
- 2:27:42Speaker 1: we're going for the next couple weeks. So with that,
- 2:27:45Speaker 1: I will thank my two co hosts for sticking out.
- 2:27:50Speaker 1: This is kind of a longer sausage. I'm about half
- 2:27:52Speaker 1: an hour over the amount of time I usually do
- 2:27:54Speaker 1: on Thursday nights, but we didn't have a show last week,
- 2:27:58Speaker 1: so this kind of makes up for it. Thanks to
- 2:28:02Speaker 1: the audience for listening. I know this is this is
- 2:28:04Speaker 1: really dry stuff, but when it boils down to it,
- 2:28:06Speaker 1: what you are being told here is there is a
- 2:28:09Speaker 1: world government effort to use the concept of misogyny to
- 2:28:15Speaker 1: silence you your criticism of any law, policy, or other
- 2:28:21Speaker 1: government initiative that affects you negatively. And then thanks very
- 2:28:29Speaker 1: much to Brian for for working hard to make things
- 2:28:31Speaker 1: happen in the background so that I can do this
- 2:28:34Speaker 1: and have the vertical chat as well, the vertical broadcast
- 2:28:39Speaker 1: as well, and for going overtime with me. Goodnight all
- 2:28:46Speaker 1: and know yea
