Speaker 1: of days. Coming up, we're gonna talk about the passports,

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: the COVID passports and how ridiculous that is. And then

9
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: an amazing article from the great Wilfred Riley, who is

Speaker 1: the next generation of Thomas Soul. Is the next Thomas Soul.

11
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: He's wonderful. So we'll talk about race relations and the

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: truth of race relations in America. That's coming up first,

13
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 1: Expressive EPN. You trust big Tech? Do you trust them?

14
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: I don't. There's no reason anyone anyone should. I want

15
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: to surf the Internet freely without wondering who's gonna get

16
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: a hold of everything I do? Like? And they know everything.

17
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 1: They know every website you go to, then everything you

18
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: type in, they know everything. Where your cursor is on

19
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: your computer, they know everything. They know how long you

20
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: spend on each weapon, they know every single thing you

21
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,880

28
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 1: in the world. Thanks for being here. The great disappointment continues.

29
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: I'm not Buck, but Buck, We'll be back tomorrow. I

30
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: will assure you I'll be back tomorrow. Thanks for sticking

31
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: around these last couple of days. One of the most

32
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: pivotal things I've ever heard. It's I think about it

33
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: every day for maybe the last two years since I

34
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: first heard it. It's from the great Thomas Soul. He said,

35
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: There's no such thing as solutions, only trade offs. Conservatives

36
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: understand this. Progressives do not. Progressives look for their utopian

37
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: visions and they seek to achieve them. Conservatives understand that

38
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: in life, there are no such thing as solutions. There

39
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: are only tradeoffs. It's true with everything. Do I buy this,

40
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: do I not buy this? Do I go here or

41
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: not go there? Invest in this, don't invest in that. Well,

42
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: there's no such thing a solution. It's only a tradeoff.

43
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: Life's full of them NonStop all day. Life's also full

44
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: of risks, and we calculate those risks all the time.

45
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: Driving a car is very risky, but you gotta get

46
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: to work, so you calculate it. Is it worth it? Yeah,

47
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: it's worth the risk getting an accident, got to get

48
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 1: to work. We are doing a poor job of risk

49
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: calculation with COVID on this March thirtieth, twenty twenty one,

50
00:02:54,919 --> 00:03:00,080
Speaker 1: racting like a March thirtieth, twenty twenty We're calculating risks

51
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: as if millions of people haven't already taken one of

52
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: these soon to be five vaccines that we have in America,

53
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: which is amazing because for a while we weren't sure

54
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: if there would ever be a vaccine. And we're not

55
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: taken into effect into account that millions more now natural

56
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: immunity because they got COVID and recovered. We're not properly

57
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: calculating risk analysis, and this is what's leading to the

58
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: vaccine passport that's being thrown around, and that is a

59
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: very very bad idea. When you drive a car, there's

60
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,839
Speaker 1: a certain risk you're gonna get in an accident and die.

61
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: Imagine if I told you, hey, Charlie, I have impending

62
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: doom of your driving today. Don't do it. I'm scared

63
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: you'll die. You have so much promise, so much potential

64
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: in life. Don't do it. Don't drive today. That emotional

65
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: plea would would screw up your calculation, your risk calculation,

66
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: and lead you to make a not proper analysis and

67
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: a not good decision. We're still doing that with COVID

68
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: very specifically. This is the head of the CDC. Head

69
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: of the CDC. She's getting all emotional when she's saying this.

70
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: She says, I'm going to reflect on the recurring feeling

71
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: I have of impending doom. We have so much to

72
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: look forward to, so much promise and potential of where

73
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: we are, and so much reason for hope. But right

74
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: now I'm scared. Lady. This is not helpful. That is

75
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: feelings over facts. How is this helpful to the American

76
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: people to have this woman of science say I'm I'm

77
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: gonna go off script and I'm going to reflect on

78
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: the feelings I have of impending doom. Why are you

79
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: unloading your feelings on us. I'm not interested in feelings,

80
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: I'm interested in facts. What are the facts? Now? You

81
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: don't have to sugarcoat things to me. I'm an adult.

82
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: Give me the reality of the situation. But you also

83
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: don't have to start to cry and try to emotionally

84
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: manipulate me. But she got her headlines, she got our attention.

85
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: And for what, oh to usher in the fear that's

86
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 1: necessary to keep you masked, keep you controlled, keep you

87
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: shut down, keep you locked down, keep you scared until

88
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: we can get the vaccine passport, and that will save today.

89
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: The government once again coming in to save the day,

90
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: rescue us on their white horse that is a super

91
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: dystopian vaccine passport. Jim Treachery said, if despair is a disease,

92
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: the CDC is doing a crappy job of controlling it.

93
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: It may be the main spreader of it. So it

94
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: was Biden yesterday saying we got to keep the mask mandates,

95
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: keep locking down, keep our kids out of school, keep

96
00:05:53,240 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: everyone scared. So let's talk about this vaccine passport. A

97
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: stunningly horrific idea. So right now, he says, they're gathering

98
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: ideas on how this passport. What it would look like

99
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: and how it would work. But it looks like it'd

100
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: be something like an app on your phone that you

101
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: would use. You know, your papers, your health papers, to

102
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: show that you've been vaccinated so that you can go

103
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: on an airplane, or eat at a restaurant, or go

104
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: to a concert. I can't. First of all, it's not necessary.

105
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: Let's just start there. It's just not necessary. We never

106
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: did this for the flu. Disney World, Disneyland never shut

107
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: down for flu. This is a disease COVID that once

108
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: we get hurt immunity. I'd argue, we're already there. It

109
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: barely spreads. Remember, Israel right now has a ar not,

110
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: which is how fast the disease spreads. If it's over one,

111
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: it spreads. If it's less than one, it doesn't. The

112
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: ar not in Israel's point seven. Okay, so it's not spreading,

113
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: it's not growing. So if you get it, most people

114
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: don't even get sick. Most people don't even know you

115
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: get it. Very few people need medical treatment. We have

116
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: new drugs out there that eliminate death, that just finished

117
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: their phase three trial, that just yesterday finish their phase

118
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: three trial. They're getting emergency authorization from the FDA right now.

119
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,239
Speaker 1: This is completely unnecessary. Two weeks to flatten the curve

120
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: to prevent hospitals from being overrun. Talk about moving the goalposts.

121
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: This is a different stratosphere of goalposts. It's completely unnecessary.

122
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: We've never done this for any flu, We've never done

123
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: this for any other illness. There's no need to start now,

124
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: because I guarantee you once a passport health vaccine passport

125
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: starts now, they're never going to get rid of it.

126
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: They will only add more things to it. And if

127
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: you can't see that by now in your X number

128
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: of years of life and watching government and watching this country,

129
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: I don't know what could possibly convince you of that.

130
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: It must be stopped now. It cannot start. Once it starts,

131
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: it will never stop. Thank goodness for Rhonda Santis, Governor

132
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: of Florida, taking the lead on this. He says, we

133
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: always said we wanted to provide the vaccine, provide the

134
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: vaccine for all, but mandate it for none. While it

135
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: was advised to take, particularly if you're vulnerable. We're not

136
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: going to force you to do it. It's completely unacceptable

137
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: for either the government or the private sector to impose

138
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: upon you the requirement that you show proof a vaccine

139
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: to just simply participate in normal society. New York Cities

140
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: started they called the Excelsior Pass. Excelsior is the motto

141
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: of the state, the Excelsior ever upward. So you need this,

142
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 1: You need your vaccine pass, your Exalsior Pass, to be

143
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: able to I hate these people, these branding of this

144
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: right just in the HR one, not to sidetrack HR one.

145
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: It's this horrific voting reform acting past the House in

146
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: the Senate. It's called the for the People Act. Goodness,

147
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: if you are the four the people act like, you

148
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: better be throwing red flags on the field. That's like,

149
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: oh not buy that nice tride flag on the fields.

150
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: What's this bill really about? Same thing with Excelsior pass. Oh, everybody,

151
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: this is the Excelsior Pass. Nope, don't like it. What

152
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: do you mean you don't like it? It's called the

153
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 1: Excelsior Pass. Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, you're hind something. What

154
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: is it? Really? You need it in order to get

155
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: into Madison Square Garden in the Barclays Center for Events

156
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: and other arts and entertainment venues. So in order to

157
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: live your life. You need you need your papers first

158
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,359
Speaker 1: of all. So again first point, I should say unnecessary.

159
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: Second point, what about equity? Oh what about equity? All

160
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: of a sudden, equity doesn't doesn't mean it. What about

161
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: lower income people who don't have smartphones? They can't download

162
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: the app? What are you gonna do with them? You're

163
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: gonna You're gonna prevent them from ever going to an

164
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 1: arts event. Oh, how racist of you, we're told. At

165
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 1: the same time, you know, Georgia passed SP two o

166
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: two it requires an ID to vote. We're told, how

167
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: t horrible and oval and evil and Jim Crow two

168
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: point zero and Biden called it sick to require someone

169
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: to show government idea to vote, just to show that

170
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: you're a real person in order to vote. That's the

171
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: worst thing ever. If you if you support that, you're

172
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: the grand words of the KKK. But a vaccine passport

173
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: to be able to go inside a building full steam ahead?

174
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 1: How could you possibly be against that? Wasn't that inequitable?

175
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: If if listen, the people who are against that Georgia bill,

176
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: they're the ones who say black people are too stupid

177
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: or poor to get a government ida. I don't say

178
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: that that'd be horribly racist. They're the one saying that.

179
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: But they are requiring everybody to get a vaccine passport

180
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: in order to do anything with their life. But what

181
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: about that same percentage of people also, This is the

182
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: same people who don't care about the tens of thousands

183
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: of people streaming across our border without any actual passport

184
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: or paperwork. But Americans need passports in order to live

185
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: our normal lives in America. What is it going on?

186
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: Who could possibly before this? It's so bizarre, like people

187
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: are still thinking, they're still operating, like we're living in

188
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: this dystopian world where people are dropping like flies, like

189
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: it's the plague. Have you ever read about the plague? Oh,

190
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: my goodness, you get it. There's a sign that you

191
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: have it and you're dead in two days. And parents

192
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 1: would have to make these horrific decisions like what to

193
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: do with their kid who had the plague? Do you

194
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: just abandon the kid to die alone and or do

195
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: you stay with them and you risk getting it and

196
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: dying immediately afterwards? There is nothing anymore. It's like a harrip.

197
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: People are living like that's what that's what we're doing.

198
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: People are still living based off what we thought COVID

199
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 1: was not what it is, especially with vaccines and all

200
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: the rest. Yes, people are still gonna get it. People

201
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 1: are still gonna get sick. You can't make any COVID

202
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: or any illness down to zero. Life is a trade off.

203
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 1: There's no such thing a solution, only trade offs. I'll

204
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: end on this. Think of it as four baskets. There's

205
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: four baskets of health. The left only thinks of physical

206
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 1: health and they want to make sure no one ever

207
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: gets COVID ever again. But there's other baskets. You have

208
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: emotional health, spiritual health, economic health, and physical health. And

209
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: you have a hundred balls, and you decide how many

210
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: balls you want to put in each basket. Some put

211
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: more in the physical health basket. Fine, I put more

212
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: in the spiritual health basket. I think churches should be

213
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: open in California. They're still not. And everybody's got to

214
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 1: come up with their own decision on how many balls

215
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: to put into each of these different baskets to find

216
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: the best balance of emotional, spiritual, economic, and physical health.

217
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: It's also worth noting that these baskets are underneath this

218
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: umbrella of freedom, and no illness is worth giving up

219
00:12:55,440 --> 00:13:01,199
Speaker 1: our freedom, no illness, especially something as my old as COVID.

220
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: People still acting like it's the plague. We should be

221
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: a country that's celebrating the end of COVID right now,

222
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: and instead we're just we're debating dystopian vaccine passports, insanity.

223
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: We're not rats in a cage. Stop treating us like

224
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: we are. Mike Slater filling in for Buck Sexton. Mike

225
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: Slater out locals dot COM's by the word, it's going on,

226
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: Team Buck. Mike Slater in San Diego, filling in for

227
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton. Thanks for let me be here these last

228
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: few days. Buck will be back tomorrow. Mike Slater out

229
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: locals dot Com is our website. We can stay in

230
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 1: touch until next time. Um, this is maybe a good

231
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: time to talk about it after I got a little

232
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: a little heated COVID lockdowns and masks and the vaccines

233
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 1: and the whole thing. It's taken on a religious fervor, right,

234
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: there's a religious fervor to it. Comply or you're excommunicated

235
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: from the church. If you don't get a vaccine, you

236
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: are impure. Right. We mentioned this from time to time

237
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: on my local show. We probably have over the last

238
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: couple of days. Even in passing, people are less religious

239
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: than ever in America. But we are designed by our

240
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: creator to worship. So if you don't worship him God,

241
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: you will worship something. Most people worship themselves. That's why

242
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: a lot of people say, I'm not religious, I'm spiritual.

243
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: Would you saying, as you worship yourself, you just making

244
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: up your own religion and you worship you, And a

245
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: lot of people worship politics. So as we leave church,

246
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: we've entered this different church. As we leave the Church

247
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: of God, we've entered this different church of politics. And

248
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: there's no longer political parties. We are now warring denominations.

249
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: God is no longer the center of our lives or

250
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: the center of our culture, the God who can unite

251
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: us all. Nope, we all have our own idols and

252
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: we pray at the pagan altar of politics. Politics doesn't have,

253
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: you know, this nice, little proper place in our existence.

254
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: It for many people is the center of our existence.

255
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: And that is unhealthy. There's an article in the Economist.

256
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: It's unhealthy for individuals, and it's unhealthy for a country.

257
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 1: The economist says, the evangelical culture warriors on the right

258
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: that's me take on the Democrats new Puritans. So they

259
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: started off talking about how Biden is such a great

260
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: Catholic who you know, supports gay marriage, an abortion, and

261
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: how Americans are more likely than ever now to claim

262
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: no religion as their religious preference. But we're no less devotional,

263
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 1: no less devotional. We just worship new things, the self

264
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: first and foremost, and then politics. And this article mentions

265
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: this God sized hole in your heart, and that's what

266
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: I want to talk about here for the remaining two

267
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: and a half minutes. The God sized hole in your

268
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: heart that's left when you remove God, and it can't

269
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: be filled with anything else. The entirety of human history

270
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: proves that it cannot be filled with anything else. This

271
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: is why one of my favorite genres of documentary and

272
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: one of my favorite genres of story are celebrities who

273
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: thought that fame and fortune would give them everything, and

274
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: it doesn't, and we'll never learn. My wife and I

275
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: we recently watch this Paris Hilton documentary. It's on YouTube.

276
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: She is absolutely miserable. And she said growing up that

277
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: when she makes a million dollars, she'll be happy, and

278
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: then she said, when she makes one hundred million dollars,

279
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: she'll be happy. And then she said in the documentary

280
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: that if only she made up billion dollars. She's traveled

281
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: the world, she's never left her hotel room. She has

282
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: no friends, no one she can trust. At one point

283
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: in the documentary, she's met at the airport by a

284
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: bunch of fans. He's in Japan or something, and these

285
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 1: two fans come up to her and they say they've

286
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: drove a couple of hours to see her, and they

287
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: take us selfie. And then later that night in the

288
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: hotel room, she's super depressed and miserable, and she says

289
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: that she has no friends that really love her. And

290
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: she says, yeah, I have no friends that really love me,

291
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 1: you know, except for Sophie and Katie. And I'm thinking,

292
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: who's Sophie and Katie? What it would oh? Oh, those

293
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: are the two girls that she met at the airport

294
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: for thirty seconds, and the documentarian says, do you have

295
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: anyone who cares for you? And Paris Hilton looks off

296
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: in the distance and she looks confused, and she says,

297
00:17:53,400 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: what does that mean? She thought there are other things

298
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: that could feel that God's size tole in her heart

299
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: and there's there's nothing else. That expression. It comes from

300
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: this seventeenth century philosopher and theologian. His name is Pascal.

301
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: He's the guy who also said, all of humanity's problems

302
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: stem from our inability to sit quietly in our room,

303
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: which means you're just you're not at peace, you're not

304
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,400
Speaker 1: at peace with yourself. So Pascal, here's the full quote.

305
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: He said, what else does this craving and this helplessness

306
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: proclaim but that there was once in man a true happiness.

307
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: There was once in man a true happiness of which

308
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: all that now remains is the empty print and trace.

309
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: What does it prove? What does it proclaim? That he

310
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 1: tries in vain to fill with everything around him, seeking

311
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: in things that are not there the help he cannot

312
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: find in those that are. None can help, since this

313
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: infinite abyss can be filled only with an infinite and

314
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: immutable object, in other words, by God himself. That's where

315
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: the expression God's sized hole comes from. This is, by

316
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: the way the Puritan Church today of the woke left

317
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: absolute purity, no deviation, no forgiveness, no grace, no grace,

318
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: no redemption. If anyone is going to drown witches today

319
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: it's the woke left. This is not good because now

320
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: real churches are actually going to split along political lines

321
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 1: as well. This is very bad. God should be a

322
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,439
Speaker 1: uniting force, the good news, the Gospel should unite, and

323
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: we're letting politics divide. And you know who loves it,

324
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: Satan and the politicians. But I repeat myself. Mike's later,

325
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,479
Speaker 1: filling in for Buck Sexton, spread the word. It's going

326
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 1: on Team Buck. Mike Slater and San Diego filling in

327
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: for Buck for one more day. Buck, We'll be back tomorrow.

328
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: I'm as grateful as you are. I can't wait for

329
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: to hear a Buck again. Mike's later dot locals dot

332
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: The Great Wilfred Riley's a professor at Kentucky State. He's wonderful.

333
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: I think he's the next Thomas soul. I want to

334
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 1: quote a bit from his latest piece and then we'll

335
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: go through it in detail. It's like, well, it's about

336
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 1: race relations in America. He says. This picture, which we'll

337
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 1: get to. This picture perfectly sums up the dualistic nature

338
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: of racial relations in America today. The real picture itself

339
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: is quite favorable if we can just manage to clean

340
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: up all the throne muck off the canvas long enough

341
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: to get a good look at it and appreciate it.

342
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: So his argument is, and my argument is, that race

343
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: relations in America are better than ever and actually great.

344
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: There just happened to be a few race baiders out

345
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: there who have this absolute mega microphone or mega megaphone,

346
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 1: who get way too much attention and way too many accolades,

347
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: and have like way disproportionate amount of institutional support, way

348
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: too much power and control in the media, news, TV, music, everywhere.

349
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: I wonder if, I wonder if ever such a small

350
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:42,719
Speaker 1: group of people have had so much institutional power, and

351
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: because they do, they paint this picture for their own

352
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: power and prestige, and it's easy for the rest of

353
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: us to get wrapped up in it and to have

354
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:56,239
Speaker 1: these people change your perception of reality. They have so

355
00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 1: much control over your kids too, and your kids now

356
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 1: don't have a proper perspective of what reality is. We

357
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: mentioned yesterday. I think that if you ask any kid

358
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: today in high school about slavery, they'll tell you that

359
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: it's a uniquely white man sin that only white people

360
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: have enslaved black people. And they'll tell you, many will

361
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 1: tell you that it's a uniquely American evil, which is preposterous,

362
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: but that's what they're told. And there's all these race

363
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: baders in schools that are telling kids that being black

364
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: is a disaster. Being black is a death sentence in America.

365
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: You'll never get ahead, Lebron James saying he's scared to

366
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: go outside. It's open season. They're hunting black people. You'll

367
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: never make anything out of yourself. You have no chance,

368
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 1: you'll never be successful. You have it no better than

369
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: the slaves, maybe even worse. Your life is hopeless. That's

370
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: the message that's being spread. And all you have to

371
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: do is buy this book so you can see how

372
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: bad you have it, and hire me to do your

373
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: diversity seminar at your work so that I can tell

374
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: white people how terrible they are as well. It's grifting.

375
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: It's for money, it's for power, it's to make themselves

376
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: feel better, and it's not true. So let's look at

377
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: some data, shall we. First, you've heard the income gap

378
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,120
Speaker 1: between white and black people. You've heard of that before, right,

379
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: White people on average earned sixty five thousand dollars a year.

380
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: Black people on average earned forty three thousand dollars a year.

381
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 1: That's a gap. Now, a Marxist were. A Marxist worldview

382
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: looks at everything through the blends of oppressed versus oppressor.

383
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: So anytime there's a disparity or an inequality, they put

384
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: it through that framework of oh, well, here's the oppressed

385
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: people and here are the oppressors. Conservatives look at a

386
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 1: disparity and say, okay, well, what are the cultural factors

387
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: at play? Slash the individual choices that people make that

388
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: have led to a disparity. Very different. So if you

389
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: take that conservative approach and you look at, okay, well

390
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Why why do black white people

391
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: earn sixty five thousand is on average? And you know

392
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 1: that's a faulty metric two because it's a lot of

393
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: people here, but sixty five thousand white people forty three

394
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: thousand from black people. What's happening here? Okay, Well, first

395
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 1: we have to account for age, who generally has more money.

396
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 1: If you lined up a fifty eight year old and

397
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: a twenty seven year old, which of those two people

398
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: are going to have more money in a higher net

399
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,479
Speaker 1: worth a fifty eight year old or twenty seven year old.

400
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: The fifty eight year old, they've been working longer, working longer,

401
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: accumulating more wealth. They're more knowledgeable, they have more wisdom

402
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: and insight. They're they command more money because they're better

403
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: at their job because they've been doing it longer. Right,

404
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: the average is the most common age of a white

405
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: person in America's fifty eight. The most common an age

406
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: for a black person's twenty seven. That alone has accounts

407
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: for a massive difference in incomes because again, who's going

408
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: to make more money the twenty seven year old or

409
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,199
Speaker 1: the fifty eight year old, Well, the fifty eight year

410
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: old old. So when you have a group with more

411
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,959
Speaker 1: fifty eight year olds, that group is going to make

412
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 1: more money, and you account for that alone, and most

413
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 1: of that disparity is gone. Is that oppression? I got

414
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: some more data shootings. People's perceptions way off. We shared

415
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: the other day forty four percent of liberals forty four

416
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: percent think that police kill over a thousand unarmed black

417
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: men every year. That's three a day. Let me ask

418
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 1: you the question, how many unarmed black men are killed

419
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 1: by police? Officers every day every year, And important to

420
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 1: note unarmed black men doesn't necessarily mean the guy was innocent, Like,

421
00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: I don't know that the circumstance in each of these,

422
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: but you know an unarmed man could still be running

423
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 1: at a police officer. Right, So, but how many unarmed

424
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 1: black men are killed by police officers every year? Forty

425
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 1: four percent of liberals think it's over a thousand. What

426
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,719
Speaker 1: do you think it is? Five hundred, two thousand, three thousand,

427
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty? What do you think the answer?

428
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: The answer is thirteen. So why do half of liberals

429
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: think that police are killing three unarmed black men a day?

430
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 1: What messages are liberals getting that has zero resemblance to

431
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: reality at all? When asked what percentage of people? How

432
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: do I wear this properly? All? Right? So police shoot

433
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: a certain number of people a year, what percentage of

434
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 1: them are black? Progressives think it's sixty percent. In reality,

435
00:26:54,080 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: it's twenty five. Our perceptions are way off. Seventy five

436
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 1: percent of police shootings, therefore, are against white and Hispanic people, right.

437
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: Seventy five percent of police shootings are against white and

438
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 1: his spanning people. But that doesn't get media attention. The

439
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 1: media covers that twenty five percent, as with nearly one

440
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: hundred percent of the coverage, so people, therefore, I think

441
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: it's nearly all the shootings. Years and years ago, I

442
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: went to the gay part of town in San Diego,

443
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: it's called Hillcrest and for their gay pride parade. Right

444
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 1: went out to the gay pride parade and I asked

445
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 1: people had a microphone, a camera, It's on the internet somewhere.

446
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 1: I went around. I said, what percentage of men in

447
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: America are gay? What percentage of men of America are gay?

448
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 1: You can see the video and people are like, um,

449
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, forty forty percent of men are gay?

450
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 1: Someone said seventy percent, twenty five percent, maybe maybe half,

451
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: maybe half of people are gay. Like and I didn't

452
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,640
Speaker 1: edit the video at all, Like I used all the answers.

453
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: No one was close, no one was anywhere near the

454
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: right answer of two percent. So think about that. Think

455
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: about these people are at this gay pride parade and

456
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: they're like, yes, seventy percent of men are gay, but

457
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 1: who are you talking about. By the way, I'm not

458
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: trying to dunk on anyone with this. This is great news.

459
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 1: When I'm sharing there's great news, just like COVID, Right,

460
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: we should be celebrating that. COVID's over. Take your masks off.

461
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 1: Let's let's have a hug and go to work and

462
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: go to a restaurant. There's a great news. But no

463
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: one's happy. No one's celebrating. Too much money to be

464
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: made in grievance, too much money to be made in power,

465
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: too much money to be made in control. Same thing

466
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: with all this race stuff. Too much money to be

467
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: made and grievance, too much money to be made in

468
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: self pity, too much money, too much attention, too much power.

469
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: Victimhood is a powerful drug. Yeah, that's so wild for

470
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: people like, oh, a sudden, you're being racist? Do be

471
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: How is it racist to report some facts going against

472
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,479
Speaker 1: the narrative is racist? Why? Oh? Because I'm not sensitive

473
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: enough sensitive to what you've heard. There's Gallup polls that

474
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: says eight percent of people would never vote for a

475
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: qualified black person to be president. Eight percent of people

476
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 1: would never vote for a qualified black person to be president.

477
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: This was in twenty fifteen. Well, seven percent. In that

478
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 1: same poll, seven percent said they never vote for a Catholic.

479
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: Eight percent said they never vote for a woman a woman,

480
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: nine percent said they never vote for a Jew, nineteen

481
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: percent said they never vote for a Mormon. So the

482
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: conclusion I get from this poll is that about seven

483
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: percent of people are racist about racist or biased or whatever.

484
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: And that's about right, which, by the way, would be

485
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: the lowest percentage of racists in a society ever. No

486
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: one's ever been more pluralistic, more ethnically diverse in human history,

487
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: and one five seven percent of people are biased, right,

488
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 1: And that's that's what This took a lot of work

489
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: to get to that point. By the way, the Civil War,

490
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: for one, six hundred thousand Americans killed to end slavery,

491
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: civil rights movement it ended fifty years ago. People are

492
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: still acting like nothing's changed. You take the ethnic groups

493
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: in America with the ten highest incomes, seven of them

494
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: are of color. People from Africa and the Caribbean have

495
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: higher incomes, and white people in America. It never makes

496
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: sense to me that people can be racist, or that

497
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: we're told that people can be racist against a black

498
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: person from Detroit, but not the black person from Jamaica.

499
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: And the race baters know this. This is why, in

500
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: the absence of actual tangible racism and that's why they

501
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 1: make up hate crimes all the time. How many nooses

502
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 1: have African American studies professors hung outside their own offices,

503
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: or people seeing hate crimes? Like my favorite one was

504
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: there's a noose up in a tree in Oakland, everyone

505
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: freaked out, the mayor freaked out. Turned out to be

506
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: a rope left behind by an African immigrant who set

507
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: up these ropes to do some exercise in the park. Right,

508
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: So people are seeing crimes, making up hate crimes in

509
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: the absence of actual tangible hate crimes. They've made up

510
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: systemic racism. Oh it's everywhere. It's everywhere, you just can't

511
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: see it. I'll end with Wilfred Riley. He says, an

512
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: ambitious young man or a woman of color applying to

513
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: virtually any selective college or university, to say nothing of

514
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: government or fortune five hundred jobs enjoys a substantial advantage

515
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: over an equally qualified white pier. Yet we are told

516
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: from the mountaintops that we are the most racist society

517
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,479
Speaker 1: ever created and an existence today. It is a total,

518
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: absolute lie. Mike Slater dot locals dot com, filling in

519
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: for Buck Sexton, spread the word going on Team Buck.

520
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: Mike Slater filling in for Buck Sexton for one last day.

521
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: Buck will be back tomorrow. So I don't know if

522
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: you do lent, but you're a you're almost done. You

523
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 1: almost made it. Whether you are Christian or not, or

524
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: practice lent or not, this is still a good thing

525
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: to do. Give stuff up. So lent if eno familiar.

526
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: You give something up for forty days up until Easter here,

527
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: you should just do that. You should just give things up.

528
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: So twenty one percent of people gave up social media,

529
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: eighteen percent gave up alcohol, thirteen percent gave up sweets,

530
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: eleven percent gave up soda. So just a little the

531
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: risk of sounded like jocko. If it's a good idea

532
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 1: to give these things up for forty days, it's probably

533
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 1: a good idea just to give these things up, just

534
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: entirely right. You should just give it up. You should

535
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: just not drink soda anymore at all, for instance. But

536
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: I want to talk about the importance of giving these

537
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: things up, just for your soul, for your brain, for

538
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: your body, for your life. It's true, first of all,

539
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: that absence makes the heart grow fonder. I think one

540
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: reason why people are depressed a lot in our society

541
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: is because everything is available all the time. We have

542
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 1: no delayed gratification. We have instant gratification, NonStop all the time.

543
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: And when you're constantly instantly gratified, you don't experience pleasure anymore.

544
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: One study, there's three groups of people. One was told

545
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: to eat as much chocolate as they possibly can, another

546
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: was told to eat as much as they wanted, and

547
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: a third was told not to eat any for a while,

548
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: and then they could have a small amount. And it

549
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: was the third group that derived the most happiness. Oh,

550
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: I forgot that. I gotta tell this story real quick.

551
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, I was talking to a

552
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: man who was taken captive in World War Two. He

553
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 1: was a small boy who was eight years old. He

554
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: was living in the Philippines and he was sent to

555
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: live in a intermit camp's eight years old with his

556
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: eleven year old brother. He was there for three years.

557
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: He weighed like like fifty pounds. Right. It was horrific

558
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: his mother or his aunt, because they were separated from

559
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: their families. Their aunt would would boil there are leather

560
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: soles of their shoes for food. At one point, he

561
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: would steal garbage from the Japanese guards and they would

562
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: boil that and he would drink the broth from garbage.

563
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: One day, the Red Cross was able to drop in

564
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: some stuff and there was a chocolate bar, Hershey's Chocolate bar.

565
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: And Tom said he and his brother each took one

566
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: square and every day they would take one lick, not

567
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,399
Speaker 1: even a bite. Every day they would take one lick.

568
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: He said, it was heavenly. Who do you think appreciates

569
00:34:55,480 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: that chocolate bar more, Tom, or someone just gorges themselves

570
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 1: all day with chocolate bars. We notice this with toys

571
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 1: with our kids. When our kids started acting greedy and

572
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,760
Speaker 1: all that, we just get rid of all the toys

573
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,720
Speaker 1: because they're just not appreciating it. They're overwhelmed. We become

574
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 1: numb to pleasure. I'll end with w eb DW Boy.

575
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: He wrote an amazing letter to his daughter. Let me

576
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: put it on the website Mike's Letter dot locals dot com.

577
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 1: It's one of my favorite letters. The Boy letter, A

578
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: little note to myself. He wrote this letter to his

579
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: daughter who was going to private school in England. She

580
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,439
Speaker 1: was like sixteen, and he wrote some amazing stuff about

581
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: her being black and also but at the end he says,

582
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:47,839
Speaker 1: read some good, heavy, serious books just for discipline. Take

583
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: yourself in hand and master yourself. Make yourself do unpleasant

584
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: things so as to gain the upper hand of your soul.

585
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: I'll put the full lighter on the website mics later

586
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: dot locals dot com, and I'll put another quote up

587
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: there from Seneca. Seneca said he gave some advice to

588
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: his friend. He said, set aside a certain number of

589
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: days where you eat disgusting food, and you wear really

590
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 1: uncomfortable clothes, and you sleep on the ground, just so

591
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: that at the end of it you can say to yourself,

592
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: this is the condition I feared, he says. I then

593
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 1: assure you, my dear Lucilius, you will leap for joy

594
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: when filled with a pennyworth of food. And you'll understand

595
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 1: that a man's peace of mind does not depend upon fortune,

596
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 1: for even when angry, fortune grants enough for our needs.

597
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: Put all on the website Mike's Later dot locals dot com.

598
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,760
Speaker 1: Coming up next, I want to talk about the George

599
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 1: Floyd trial and the truth. Well, I'll just tell you

600
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 1: what the what the defense is going to present, and

601
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 1: you can decide what to do with that. We'll do

602
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,399
Speaker 1: that coming up next. Mikes Later filling in for Box

603
00:36:55,400 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 1: Sexton spread the word, Ah, the great disappointment continues. Where's Buck?

604
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 1: Bring back back? He'll be back tomorrow. I'm mikes Later,

605
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: San Diego, filling it for Buck one last day. Thank

606
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: you for letting me be here the last few days.

607
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: It's a wonderful honor. And Buck's the man looking forward

608
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: to him coming back as well. George Floyd trial, you're ready.

609
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 1: This has the potential to be an absolute disaster for

610
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: this country. Trial starry yesterday, continuing obviously today. So Derek

611
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 1: Chaffin charged with murder. The others are charged as accomplices

612
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 1: to the murder, and the prosecution has to prove that

613
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: Derek Chaufin well, there's a couple different charges, right, and

614
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 1: everyone is going to be very very up on second

615
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: degree murder, third degree murder and what the differences between

616
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: all these are. But I want to be very clear,

617
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: would what this trial is not? This trial is not

618
00:37:53,360 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 1: was this thing sad? Was this a bad event? Did

619
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 1: I wish this not happened? Did this thing make me upset? Those?

620
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,359
Speaker 1: The answer to those all those things are is yes,

621
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 1: that's not a criminal trial. This prosecution needs to prove

622
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 1: beyond a reasonable doubt, unanimously by the journey that this

623
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: police officer intentionally murdered George Floyd. That's one of the charges.

624
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 1: The other charge that the other one is that in

625
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: the act of committing a felony offense, murdered George Floyd's.

626
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 1: They have to prove that what Derek Choffin did and

627
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: they're not gonna be able to do this as all

628
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: talking to a second, he went beyond his role as

629
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 1: a police officer, was committing a felony offense, felony assault,

630
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: and in that act murdered him. I do not believe

631
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 1: they are going to be able to prove that. Now

632
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: does it even matter? It's another question like it's this

633
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 1: is like the oj trial, right, nothing that what's her

634
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 1: name in the OJA trial said or did? What's her name?

635
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: Who's the lawyer? Marcia Marcia, Marcia, Marcia Marcia OJ trial

636
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: Marcia Marcia, what's her last name? Marcia Clark? Nothing she did, no, no,

637
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: not think anyone could have done would have resulted in

638
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: that jury saying that oj Simpson was guilty of murder.

639
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: There's no so I hope she didn't feel bad about it.

640
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: There's nothing she could have done. Please, if you have

641
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 1: not watched the documentaries about OJ Simpson, you must watch them.

642
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: There's two ones, a documentary and one is more like

643
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,399
Speaker 1: a mini series kind of. They're both fantastic. Watched them both.

644
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,800
Speaker 1: And it is true that once he was said not guilty,

645
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: one of the jurors got out of the box and

646
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: gave OJ the Black Power salute fist in the air.

647
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 1: There is no chance that that guy would have said

648
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 1: that OJ Simpson was guilty, he should go to jail. Okay.

649
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: So it entirely depends on jury selection and who's on

650
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 1: this jury, And I don't know what that exactly looks like.

651
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: But that's another point about human nature, is like does

652
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: it even matter really what is put forward on this

653
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 1: trial or is every single juror's mind already made up?

654
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 1: But that being said, it has to be unanimous in

655
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: order of proven guilty. That's a high bar. But the

656
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 1: courtroom in Minneapolis is it's like where they're having a trial,

657
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:28,280
Speaker 1: it's like it's like a war zone. Concrete barriers everywhere,

658
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 1: barred wire, everything's blockaded up. And those jurors know that

659
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 1: if this police officer is found not guilty and is

660
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: allowed to walk that activists will burn everything to the ground,

661
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: not only in Minneapolis, but in every sity in this country.

662
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: If these officers are quitted, the reaction is going to

663
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: be worse than when George Floyd first died. Okay, so

664
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 1: let's talk about the defense that Derek Cholfin's going to present,

665
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: so you can be prepared for this and when people

666
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: and when your people at work or family members, when

667
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 1: they come to you and they are coming at you

668
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,839
Speaker 1: of with just their feelings and their emotions of it

669
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: was bad. I hated to seeing it. It was hard

670
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: to watch. You're like, Okay, yeah, not a that's not

671
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 1: criminal trial. That's not what this is. I agree with you.

672
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: It was hard to watch. I agree with you. It

673
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: was terrible and fortunate and awful, not what the criminal

674
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: trial is about. So what they're gonna show is the

675
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 1: medical exam and the toxicology report. Also, don't get mad

676
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: at me for sharing this either. I'm just telling you

677
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. And I'm telling you I think

678
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna get acquitted. Everyone's gonna flip out Biden and

679
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 1: harass Oh my goodness, they're gonna call it. Ah, what

680
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 1: a gross injustice of the American court system. How could

681
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 1: this have happened? We live in such a racist country.

682
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: Black men could be murdered by the police on broad daylight.

683
00:41:52,640 --> 00:42:05,760
Speaker 1: The whole thing anyway, medical report, toxicology report. The medical

684
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: report says that there was no injury to George Floyd's neck.

685
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 1: That's gonna no one's want. No one's gonna want to

686
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: believe that. That's the premise of this whole thing. Right,

687
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 1: The officer kneeled on his neck so he couldn't breathe.

688
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 1: But here's the medical reports saying there were no injuries

689
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 1: to his neck and no evidence that his airway was

690
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: ever blocked. Well, hold on, I thought he choked. I

691
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: thought he suffocated him and choked him on on the ground.

692
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 1: And you're telling me that the medical report says that

693
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: his airway was never blocked. What do we No one's

694
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: going to believe that. Here's the medical report, no life

695
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 1: threatening injuries identified, no injuries of anterior muscles of neck

696
00:42:55,360 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 1: or laryngeal structures, larynx breathing. No one's gonna want to

697
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 1: believe that. This is the criminal charge against Derek Chofin.

698
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: It says the medical examiner has made the following preliminary findings.

699
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: The autopsy revealed no physical findings that support a diagnosis

700
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 1: of traumatic asphyxia, asphyxia, or strangulation. Mister Floyd had underlying

701
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: health conditions, including coronary artery disease and hypertensive heart disease.

702
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 1: The combined effects of mister Floyd being restrained by the police,

703
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: his underlying health conditions, and any potential intoxicans in his

704
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: system likely contributed to his death. So it wasn't the

705
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: knee on the neck now, it's that last line. There

706
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: any potential intoxicans in his system. George Floyd said I

707
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 1: can't breathe during this situation event occurrence seven times. He

708
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: said I can't breathe. Before he was even on the ground,

709
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 1: before there was even a neck, a knee on the neck,

710
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,839
Speaker 1: which leads to the toxicology report. George Floyd had eleven

711
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: nanograms of fetanol per milli leader of blood. Now, I

712
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,360
Speaker 1: have no idea what that means. If you if someone

713
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,919
Speaker 1: zone said, hey, how many nanograms of fetanol per milla leader,

714
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, like one hundred or four. I don't know.

715
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 1: Three is fatal. Three He had eleven nanograms, even among

716
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 1: hardcore habitual users of fetanol, which there aren't many and

717
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: not for long. But there's a study of overdose deaths

718
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: of people who used fetanol regularly. Nine nanograms was the

719
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 1: median fatal dose. George Floyd had eleven. One of the

720
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: consequences of an overdose is called pulmonary edema. This is

721
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 1: when fluid fills up the lungs. The media the medical

722
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: report says his lungs were two to three times the

723
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 1: weight of normal lungs. That means they were filled with fluid.

724
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 1: In the body cam footage early on, this is very

725
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 1: early on, before the police car was even involved, right

726
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: before they even tried to get him in the police car,

727
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,240
Speaker 1: an officer asked him, why are you foaming at the mouth.

728
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: Why are you foaming at the mouth. This is before

729
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: things got heated. This is before again they tried to

730
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,840
Speaker 1: get him in the right and obviously said why are

731
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 1: you foaming at the mouth? And George Floyd said, earlier,

732
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: I was hooping. I have the audio. It's hard to hear,

733
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,280
Speaker 1: but I have the audio. Early he said, I was hooping.

734
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:48,799
Speaker 1: Whooping is when you place drugs in your anus. What

735
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,800
Speaker 1: America saw was a man die of a drug overdose.

736
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 1: And the reason why these officers, I believe are going

737
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 1: to be acquitted and people are going to burn every

738
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,720
Speaker 1: city to the round is that these police officers followed

739
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: Minneapolis police protocol on every single thing they did. They

740
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: tried to get him in the car and he said,

741
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to go in. I want to go

742
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 1: in on one go in and they said, okay, fine,

743
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 1: we'll roll down the windows. He said, I'm claustrophobic. We'll

744
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 1: roll on the windows, We'll put on the AC you

745
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: just gotta get in the car. George Floyd asked to

746
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,360
Speaker 1: get on the ground and there were three officers on

747
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 1: top of them. This is really interesting. When you first

748
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 1: saw the video or the main video, you don't see

749
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 1: the other two officers. You just see Derek Choffin on

750
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: top of his neck because the cars in the way.

751
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 1: You don't see the other two officers, one on his

752
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 1: lower back and one on his legs. This is what

753
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: officers are trained to do. Now, you could be against

754
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: that if you want. You can say that's wrong, we

755
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 1: got to get rid of that. Great, I'll definitely have

756
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: that conversation. But can you charge an officer with murder

757
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 1: when they are completely following textbook police protocol as they

758
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 1: were trained. If you can how can anyone be a

759
00:46:54,440 --> 00:47:00,720
Speaker 1: police officer. Also, these officers, they called them lens twice.

760
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: Once when George Floyd hit his head on the police car,

761
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: they called the ambulance for that reason. These are not

762
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,680
Speaker 1: people that are going out of their way to murder someone.

763
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 1: The charge against Derek Choffin of murder was made two

764
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 1: days before the toxicology report was issued. To me, that

765
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,360
Speaker 1: suggests that this was a political decision by the prosecution

766
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: because the activists were going crazy and the prosecutor and

767
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 1: the prosecutor needed to give the city needed to give

768
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,799
Speaker 1: the activists what they wanted, and they went too soon.

769
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 1: They got out too soon in front of it. Before

770
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: the toxicology report was released, we talked on my radio

771
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: show with the former I forgot his exact title, but

772
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:50,280
Speaker 1: he was in Philadelphia for decades and he prosecuted police

773
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 1: abuse crimes like police officers abusing people, like use of

774
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 1: force right, and so he's prosecuted these police officers many

775
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 1: times for going too far. He said, in no circumstance

776
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 1: would would these people have been Did these police go

777
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 1: beyond what they're called to do and what they should

778
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,359
Speaker 1: have done, and he believes that they should at least

779
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: be found not guilty of their crimes that they're charged with.

780
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:26,640
Speaker 1: And again, if that happens, get ready. Mike's later dot

781
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,680

782
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: George Floyd Info, I'll put all that on the website

783
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 1: right now. Mike's later, Dot locals dot com. Mike later,

784
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 1: filling it for box Sexton, spread the word going on

785
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: Team Buck. Mike's later in San Diego, filling it for

786
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 1: box Sexton, Mikes later, dot locals dot com. I don't

787
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: know what I just shared. They're made people upset, but

788
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 1: get ready, get ready for this trial and then the

789
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 1: verdict dot comes. It all depends on the journey. It

790
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: all depends on the duram um. I want to share

791
00:48:56,200 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 1: a little thing here about minimum wage because so Zoe Rachel.

792
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: Zoe Rachel, he made such a great point on my

793
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,319
Speaker 1: TV show, Buck and I both have shows. On the

794
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 1: first he said, when Democrats say there's systemic racism, conservatives

795
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: come back and say no, there's not. And he says, hey, conservatives,

796
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: you should say yes, there is systemic racism, and you're

797
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 1: the racists, you're the ones doing it. I said, so,

798
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: what's a good example. I'll give you one right here,

799
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: minimum wage. Minimum wage is a racist policy. The intent

800
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 1: of minimum wage was to hurt people of color. Now, progressives,

801
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 1: they're the ones who are favor of it today still,

802
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 1: and they say, oh, we want minimum wage because we're

803
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 1: gonna help lower income people. We're gonna give them more money,

804
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 1: and then they pat themselves on the back for being

805
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 1: so thoughtful and wonderful. And conservatives look at this a

806
00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:58,839
Speaker 1: minimum wage, and we say, well, hold on, the real

807
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 1: minimum wage is zero. You raise the minimum wage, it's

808
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,800
Speaker 1: gonna get people unemployed, and they're gonna get fired, and

809
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 1: they're gonna get replaced by machine and all this. So

810
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,879
Speaker 1: this raising them in wage actually hurts the people who

811
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 1: progressives say it's going to help. Right, So let's take

812
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 1: a single black woman. She's making eight dollars an hour,

813
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:17,959
Speaker 1: so now we pass a law raise them inum wage

814
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 1: to fifteen dollars. But progressives look at that and say, oh,

815
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,920
Speaker 1: now she's making twice as much money. And conservatives look

816
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,439
Speaker 1: at that, well, no, she was just fired. She makes

817
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:30,600
Speaker 1: zero dollars now and now she's entirely dependent on the

818
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:33,359
Speaker 1: government and all the problems to come with that. Now,

819
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,799
Speaker 1: a conservative would look at this and say, hey, progressives,

820
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,720
Speaker 1: you gotta look at the unintended consequences of a policy.

821
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 1: You maybe have good intentions, but you gotta look at

822
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 1: the unintended consequences. That's what That's what I used to say.

823
00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: But now my argument, based on the history of the

824
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 1: minimum wage, is that the original intent of the minimum

825
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:59,400
Speaker 1: wage was explicitly to kick undesirable people out of the

826
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: labor for this is not an unintended consequence of the

827
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:06,240
Speaker 1: minimum wage. This was the original point of the minimum wage.

828
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: It's working perfectly. Let me back it up. Eugenics was

829
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: hugely popular in the early nineteen hundreds in America, very

830
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,400
Speaker 1: dark time in our history. But we don't hear a

831
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:24,359
Speaker 1: lot about it because it was a progressive idea spearheaded

832
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: in the Ivy League schools. The most California performed twenty

833
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 1: thousand sterilizations just in our mental health institutions to prevent

834
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 1: to protect society from the offspring of people with mental illness. Right,

835
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:38,839
Speaker 1: and the Supreme Court upheld this. The Chief Justice who

836
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:42,160
Speaker 1: used to he was the head of the medical school

837
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,919
Speaker 1: at Harvard. He said, three generations of imbeciles are enough,

838
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 1: So let's prevent these people from from procreating. Right. So,

839
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 1: the Ivy League, they loved eugenics. And if it weren't

840
00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,839
Speaker 1: for this guy, Adolf Hitler coming to power, he who

841
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,080
Speaker 1: gave it all a bad name, and if it weren't

842
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:04,640
Speaker 1: for him in America would possibly still be leading eugenics

843
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 1: around the world, although maybe we are with abortion. I

844
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:14,360
Speaker 1: bring this up because the idea behind eugenics is we

845
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 1: are scientifically going to make a better race of people.

846
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 1: So how do we do that, Well, we have to

847
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 1: rid the gene pool of certain people. We have to

848
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 1: purify the gene pool and will make them better, stronger

849
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 1: people in a better society. Same thinking, if you could

850
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:34,120
Speaker 1: rid these people from the gene pool, we can also

851
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,239
Speaker 1: ban them from the labor force. And what was the

852
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: way that these people decided to do that? Minimum wage?

853
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:45,800
Speaker 1: This is economics Professor F. Taussig. He said, certain types

854
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: of criminals and paupers. This is back in the day.

855
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,400
Speaker 1: Certain types of criminals and paupers breed only their kind,

856
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,360
Speaker 1: and society has a right and a duty to protect

857
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 1: its members from the repeated burden of maintaining and guarding

858
00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,920
Speaker 1: such parasites. The human race could be amensely improved in

859
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 1: quality and its capacity for happy living immensely increased if

860
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 1: those of poor physical and mental endowment were prevented from multiplying.

861
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,759
Speaker 1: He said the feeble minded quote should simply be stamped out.

862
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 1: We have not reached the stage where we can proceed

863
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: to chloroform chloroform them once and for all, but at

864
00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 1: least they can be segregated, shut up in refuges and asylums,

865
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,920
Speaker 1: and prevented from propagating their kind. That was the progressive

866
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:36,040
Speaker 1: liberal elite view at the time. Similarly, how do we

867
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 1: ban the feeble minded from employment? Raise the minimum wage?

868
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 1: Arthur Holcomb he was a Harvard professor. He wrote about

869
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,919
Speaker 1: the minimum wage in Australia. He said it was done

870
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: to protect the white Australian's standard of living from the

871
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 1: insidious competition of the colored races, particularly of the Chinese.

872
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,799
Speaker 1: Minimum wage laws were passed in the North when there

873
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,839
Speaker 1: was a major exodus from black people from the South,

874
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 1: and they pass the minimum wage laws to prevent the

875
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 1: black people from taking those jobs. And same thing today

876
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:17,360
Speaker 1: it's oh it's couched much nicer, but the end results

877
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 1: the exact same, hurts low income people the most, and

878
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 1: it hurts people of color the most. So there's three

879
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:23,879
Speaker 1: groups of people here when it comes to the minimum wage.

880
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 1: You have the utopians, the progressives, who say, oh, we

881
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: gotta raise the minimum wage and help people. You have

882
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 1: conservatives who say, oh, we gotta raise You can't raise

883
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:36,880
Speaker 1: the minimum wage because that will unintentionally hurt people. And

884
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 1: then you have me who says, oh, raising the minimum wage,

885
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: you can't do that because it will do exactly what

886
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:53,319
Speaker 1: it was designed to do, hurt certain people. Should I

887
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 1: play the left game? Let me play the game. Let

888
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:57,360
Speaker 1: me play the game. If you support raising the minimum wage,

889
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 1: you're a racist. Mike Slater dot locals dot com. That's

890
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 1: our website. Mike Later at locals dot com, filling in

891
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:06,960
Speaker 1: for Buck Sexton, spread the word. Hey, what's going on?

892
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,800
Speaker 1: Team Buck? Mike Slater filling in for Buck Sexton again.

893
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: Jeez Buck, come on, hurry back. Hate this Slater guy.

894
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 1: We'll be back tomorrow. Don't worry. So we just had

895
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: two pretty heavy segments there, provocative. I want to lighten

896
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 1: it up it and talk about virtue, specifically feminine virtues.

897
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,920
Speaker 1: We don hear all the time about toxic masculinity, and

898
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 1: I would argue that as as screwed up, as as

899
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:41,920
Speaker 1: ill defined as masculinity is in our culture, femininity is

900
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,919
Speaker 1: just as poorly defined. So what do that coming up next? First?

901
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:49,239
Speaker 1: Express vp N. You gotta do this. You gotta get

902
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:54,600
Speaker 1: it because it's the only way around big tech. Because

903
00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 1: here's the thing. You can get off the big tech sites, right,

904
00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: you can get off Facebook, get off Twitter, or you

905
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,280
Speaker 1: can get off that stuff. You're still being followed everywhere,

906
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:05,239
Speaker 1: right your browser, you got Google Chrome, like everything you

907
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 1: can't you can't get away from using the internet. So

908
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 1: the only way to get around it is Express VPN.

909
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: So they make you anonymous right your online presence. They

910
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,399
Speaker 1: high dry p address, so it makes everything you do

911
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 1: uh difficult to trace and therefore sell to advertisers and

912
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 1: you're not being followed all the time. And you can

913
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:25,839
Speaker 1: do it on your phone too. Remember I was telling

924
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:07,240
Speaker 1: I know you're annoyed that I'm here Bucks, not but Buck.

925
00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: We'll be back tomorrow. I want to change gears here,

926
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:14,919
Speaker 1: Can we like downshift a minute? So we just talked

927
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:18,120
Speaker 1: about George Floyd. We talked about vaccine passports, and we

928
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 1: talked about George Floyd, and then we talked about the

929
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:26,880
Speaker 1: minimum wage and eugenis, eugenesis systems, eugenics, and it's like, oh, geez,

930
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: heavy show. Let's take a minute and talk about something

931
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 1: beautiful because we need more of that in our culture.

932
00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 1: Yesterday we spent this hour talking about Little Nasax and

933
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 1: his new song and his Satan shoes and all this

934
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 1: is ridiculous stuff. And my point was, don't outsource the

935
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:52,440
Speaker 1: raising of your kids to people who hate you and

936
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: to people who hate your worldview. Take control back and

937
00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 1: instead of because when you when you let your kids

938
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:02,920
Speaker 1: listen to the music that people in Hollywood and the

939
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 1: movies that people in Hollywood, and the video games also.

940
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 1: But the people who made that stuff they hate you.

941
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 1: I don't like, they hate your world. Blues Clues, Blues

942
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 1: Clues did an alphabet song, P was for pride, and

943
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:17,960
Speaker 1: it was they had they had the rainbow flag, the

944
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 1: gay rainbow flag, and then eight other flags like the

945
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 1: transgender flag and the lesbian flag and the intersects flag,

946
00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 1: and it's like what Blues Clues three to five year old.

947
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,600
Speaker 1: Blue Blues Clues. Okay, so your kids, if you don't

948
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: raise your kids, you're letting these people do it for you.

949
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:39,080
Speaker 1: And these people are bombarding your kids with ugliness. So

950
00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 1: it is your job to surround your kids with beautiful things.

951
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 1: That is my plea to you. So what is beautiful, Well,

952
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:54,760
Speaker 1: the things that are objectively beautiful. The world shows your

953
00:58:54,880 --> 00:59:01,479
Speaker 1: kids dancing and it's ugly and it's girl like little

954
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 1: girls like shoving their crotch at the camera. Stuff like

955
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 1: that's like ugly dancing. So you need to show your

956
00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 1: kids beautiful dancing. Show your kids you're I have a

957
00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 1: little girl as I'm doing this segment, I'm thinking of

958
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: my daughter, Grace. She's three, just turned three. She's amazing.

959
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 1: I love this girl. She's bounding, full of joy. And

960
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,480
Speaker 1: every once in a while we'll watch videos of ballet

961
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,920
Speaker 1: and we'll watch videos of the tango. Right, that's a

962
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:32,120
Speaker 1: sensual dance, but it's beautiful. The world gives your kids

963
00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 1: terrible music, So surround your kids and you're in your

964
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:40,400
Speaker 1: home with beautiful music. It's called classical music for a reason.

965
00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 1: And if you want to modernize it a bit. My

966
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 1: son and I we listened a lot to John Williams.

967
00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: John Williams is the composer behind Star Wars and Jurassic

968
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:49,720
Speaker 1: Park and et. And we just sit and we just

969
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:51,040
Speaker 1: listen to the music, and we say, oh, who are

970
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: the bad guys? Are the bad guys winning or the

971
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,760
Speaker 1: good guys winning? And we just talk about the music.

972
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:55,920
Speaker 1: Oh do you hear that part? Do you hear the

973
00:59:55,960 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 1: violin coming in? Or whatever? That's beautiful music. The world

974
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:05,920
Speaker 1: pumps terrible TV shows into your home. Watch no TV,

975
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 1: go outside if you must, watch The Little House on

976
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 1: the Prairie, watch the Andy Griffith Show. And you're like

977
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:15,800
Speaker 1: laughing at this, You're scoffing at this. Why you're in charge.

978
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:21,040
Speaker 1: You set the culture of your home, and throughout all

979
01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:23,920
Speaker 1: this promote masculine and feminine virtues in your home as well.

980
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:25,680
Speaker 1: And that's what I want to talk about in this segment.

981
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:27,919
Speaker 1: We have been told for a long time now about

982
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 1: toxic masculinity. I argue that there's no such thing as

983
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,959
Speaker 1: toxic masculinity because masculinity is a virtue, and you can't

984
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 1: have toxic virtues. The fruits of the spirit are love, joy, peace, patients, kindness, goodness, gentleness,

985
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,240
Speaker 1: and self control. There's no such thing as toxic peace,

986
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:52,480
Speaker 1: or toxic joy, or toxic self control. Similarly, masculinity is

987
01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:56,600
Speaker 1: a virtue. There's no toxicness of it. There's not properly

988
01:00:56,640 --> 01:01:00,440
Speaker 1: defined masculinity, no doubt about that. But that's not masculinity.

989
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 1: And just as we do a poor job, to say

990
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 1: the least, of defining what true masculinity is, we've done

991
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 1: an equally if not worse job of defining femininity. Now

992
01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 1: my local show, we've talked about masculinity a billion times.

993
01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 1: It's easier for me. I am a guy, and I

994
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,920
Speaker 1: have two sons, four and one, so I've thought a

995
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 1: lot about this, and I haven't thought as much about femininity.

996
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 1: But then I realized I have a three year old daughter,

997
01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 1: and I better figure this out because if I don't,

998
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,440
Speaker 1: someone else is going to do it for her. This

999
01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: is my job and I'm not going to outsource it

1000
01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:40,400
Speaker 1: to Cardi b. It is my job to emphasize, to

1001
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,720
Speaker 1: have clearly defined and to emphasize the great feminine virtues

1002
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:49,200
Speaker 1: in her and give her that to strive for. So

1003
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:53,520
Speaker 1: let's talk about four great feminine virtues right here, and

1004
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear some more. Goal goodness, If you

1005
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 1: have some more, I'd love to hear them. Mike Slater

Speaker 1: uh fem virtue Mike Slater dot locals dot com. So

1010
01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 1: EV is a really wonderful women's online magazine from a

1011
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 1: conservative worldview. It's really good. It's a beautiful website. E

1012
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 1: v I E I think it's I think it's just

1013
01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 1: eviie dot com. EVI I E EVE magazine. Yeah, evmagazine

1014
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 1: dot com. It's really really good. So they have an

1015
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 1: article uh, it's called want to attract a good man.

1016
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Four feminine virtues to strive for this. This magazine is

1017
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 1: mostly geared towards like millennial and young women. So for

1018
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 1: feminine virtues, first, be graceful. Being graceful is not necessarily

1019
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 1: about how you move your body, but about how you

1020
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:53,760
Speaker 1: conduct and control yourself. It means taking hardship in stride.

1021
01:02:55,320 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 1: What's proverbs So Proverb thirty one is all about the

1022
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 1: wife of noble character. She's worth far more than rubies.

1023
01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 1: There's one line in here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's clothed

1024
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 1: in strength and dignity. She can laugh at the days

1025
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:17,920
Speaker 1: to come. M Proverbs thirty one twenty five. She can

1026
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 1: laugh at the days to come. She's not full of

1027
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:24,000
Speaker 1: anxiety and worry. She's in complete control of herself. It

1028
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:27,640
Speaker 1: means taking hardships and stride, not letting things get to

1029
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 1: you too deeply. Instead of being petty holding a grudge

1030
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 1: you're getting mad at someone. A graceful woman is patient

1031
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: and forgiving. Grace is what helps a woman to manage

1032
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 1: her relationships and maintain harmony among those around her. Are

1033
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,240
Speaker 1: you seeing the women in your life, the women you

1034
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:48,520
Speaker 1: know who have this grace or maybe women who don't.

1035
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 1: Being graceful means leaving people off better off than when

1036
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 1: we found them. A graceful woman is comfortable with her femininity.

1037
01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,760
Speaker 1: She doesn't try to be masculine, and she's not overtly sexual.

1038
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 1: See that's the Cardi B and just the culture of

1039
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 1: today is femininity is you have to be vulgar, right

1040
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,200
Speaker 1: to be a vertly sexual and vulgar like a man.

1041
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:15,040
Speaker 1: It's like, No, she likes who she is and she's charming, polite, elegant,

1042
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:19,280
Speaker 1: kind and generous. First feminine virtue graceful. Second, be beautiful.

1043
01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:22,919
Speaker 1: A woman's beauty and her virtue go hand in hand.

1044
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:27,439
Speaker 1: If a woman acts virtuously, she'll be more beautiful. True

1045
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,400
Speaker 1: beauty radiates from within to the outer world. Saint Thomas

1046
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 1: Aquinas wrote that the three characteristics of beauty are radiance, harmony,

1047
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 1: and wholeness. Oh that's so good, Saint Thomas Aquinas. Let

1048
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:44,040
Speaker 1: me get a year on, Saint Thomas Aquinas. Here twelve

1049
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:48,440
Speaker 1: fifty or so. Saint Thomas Aquinas. So, the three characteristics

1050
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:52,880
Speaker 1: of beauty are radiance, harmony, and wholeness. Beauty occurs when

1051
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 1: we treat ourselves others in the world around us as

1052
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 1: best as we can. Striving for health and wholesomeness makes

1053
01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:00,640
Speaker 1: you beautiful. So again this is obvious one. Right. Our

1054
01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:06,280
Speaker 1: perception of beauty in America is you know, it's just sexual,

1055
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:12,080
Speaker 1: and that's not true. That's radiance, harmony, and wholeness. Number three,

1056
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:15,160
Speaker 1: Respect your body. A virtuous woman treasures herself and treats

1057
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:17,600
Speaker 1: herself like a pearl. She doesn't give her body away

1058
01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:19,960
Speaker 1: just anyone. She has strong boundaries and she knows she's

1059
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:25,840
Speaker 1: precious and valuable. A good man will recognize that you're

1060
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:29,439
Speaker 1: cognizant of the importance of treating your physicality well as

1061
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 1: you respect yourself so well, so he will respect you.

1062
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:36,440
Speaker 1: That's true. And fourth, be sisterly. A virtuous woman is

1063
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:39,120
Speaker 1: not caddy and mean, but sisterly kind. Supportive of other

1064
01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 1: women in her life means not getting, not gossiping, being

1065
01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 1: manipulative for acting cruel. A virtuous woman will not put

1066
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:47,400
Speaker 1: other women down with a mistake and belief that it

1067
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:50,080
Speaker 1: will lift her up, and she'll try her best to

1068
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,520
Speaker 1: be supportive and happy of other women. One of my

1069
01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:56,919
Speaker 1: best friends is dating a girl now, and I said,

1070
01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, what's your favorite thing about her? And he said,

1071
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:05,200
Speaker 1: I love how she is loved by her friends. Her

1072
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:09,920
Speaker 1: friends love her, which means she is very sisterly. Should

1073
01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:12,600
Speaker 1: be wary of the woman who doesn't have any girlfriends.

1074
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:17,160
Speaker 1: So I'll put all those on Mike Slater out locals

1075
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,240
Speaker 1: dot com. Be graceful, be beautiful, respect your body, be sisterly.

1076
01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 1: These are just four of many feminine virtues. I'll end

1077
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:24,800
Speaker 1: with this story here. It's one of my favorites, Gates

1078
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,600
Speaker 1: of Fire. You have to read it. It's written by

1079
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:29,000
Speaker 1: Stephen Pressfield. It's about the Battle of Thermopole. It's a

1080
01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 1: must read. And he tells a story of Leonidas and

1081
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:39,800
Speaker 1: Leonidas the king of Sparta. He shows the three hundred men,

1082
01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 1: and how did he choose the three hundred men? Well,

1083
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 1: he chose one husband. He chose this woman's husband and

1084
01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:50,360
Speaker 1: this woman's son. So all these men were gonna die.

1085
01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 1: They all knew it. So this woman was gonna lose

1086
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 1: her husband and her son, two loved ones. So she

1087
01:06:56,240 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 1: went to go see Leonidas and begged him too. I

1088
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: think she put it not visit upon her, this double

1089
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 1: portion of grief. And Leonidas says, woman, do you know

1090
01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 1: why I chose these three hundred men. Why would you

1091
01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 1: Why do you think he chose these three hundred men. Well,

1092
01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:27,240
Speaker 1: they're the best fighters, the best warriors. No, maybe they're

1093
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, my favorite whatever. Maybe I was bribed

1094
01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:37,040
Speaker 1: to take these three hundred and not others. And Leonidas

1095
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:38,840
Speaker 1: tells the woman, he says, I chose these three hundred

1096
01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:45,160
Speaker 1: men not for their valor, but for the valor of

1097
01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 1: their wives. He knew that these three hundred men were

1098
01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,200
Speaker 1: gonna die. He knew that the Persians were going to

1099
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 1: march through and once they won that battle at Thermopoli,

1100
01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,520
Speaker 1: he knew that the rest of Greece was going to

1101
01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:02,320
Speaker 1: look to words Sparta on how to react. And the

1102
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:05,680
Speaker 1: people of Sparta, we're going to look towards the wives

1103
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 1: and mothers of those who were killed to know how

1104
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:14,160
Speaker 1: to react. And Leonida says, all of Greece will look

1105
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:16,599
Speaker 1: to the Spartans to see how they bear this loss.

1106
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:21,479
Speaker 1: And if they behold that your hearts are stricken broken

1107
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 1: with grief, then they too will break, and Greece will

1108
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,760
Speaker 1: break with them. But if you bear up, dry eyed,

1109
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:30,120
Speaker 1: not alone and during your loss, but seizing it with

1110
01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:32,599
Speaker 1: contempt for its agony, and embracing it, as the honor

1111
01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,840
Speaker 1: that is in the truth, then Sparta will stand and

1112
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:39,880
Speaker 1: all of Greece will stand behind her. The three hundred

1113
01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:43,000
Speaker 1: men were chosen because of the women. We need more

1114
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:48,200
Speaker 1: spartan women today. Not stoic, that's not it, not emotionless,

1115
01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 1: but whole and complete and graceful and truly beautiful. Or

1116
01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 1: you could just have him watched Little Nasax's video and

1117
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 1: Cardi b and dance and saying nect like horrors all down.

1118
01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:02,479
Speaker 1: But that's fine, didn't You can do that for your

1119
01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:05,400
Speaker 1: daughters too. Way. Either way, Mike's later dot locals dot com.

1120

1122
01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 1: Filling in for Buck Sexmon spread the word. It's going on,

1123
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:12,479
Speaker 1: Team Buck. I got a few more minutes here, so

1124
01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:15,120
Speaker 1: let me stay on topic here sort of. So we

1125
01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 1: just talked about femininity, and now I want to talk

1126
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:23,880
Speaker 1: about a feminist like os Slater. I don't So we

1127
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:29,360
Speaker 1: just talked about the feminine virtues, some feminine virtues, but

1128
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,800
Speaker 1: now I want to talk about a FEMINISTC sounds the same,

1129
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:39,120
Speaker 1: It's different. Men are often insulted or can be insulted.

1130
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:43,519
Speaker 1: When they're called a feminine feminine E F F E

1131
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:47,000
Speaker 1: M I N feminine. This is a man who is

1132
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:52,439
Speaker 1: not manly. The second definition in the next dictionary of

1133
01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:58,759
Speaker 1: a feminine is marked by an unbecoming delicacy. Saint Thomas Aquinas,

1134
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,280
Speaker 1: who we just quoted earlier, he wrote it about this

1135
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,200
Speaker 1: in the twelve hundreds. He called him. He called it

1136
01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:05,839
Speaker 1: molts like a Mollusk's where we get the word mollusk.

1137
01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:09,439
Speaker 1: A mollusk is a soft It's like a snail. Right.

1138
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:13,839
Speaker 1: It means malty, means softness. Mollusks. The snails are soft

1139
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:19,719
Speaker 1: on the inside of their shell. Right. And Saint Thomas Acquintas,

1140
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:22,960
Speaker 1: he quoted Aristotle, the man who is fond of amusement

1141
01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 1: is a feminine. On the contrary, the persevering man is

1142
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:38,080
Speaker 1: opposed to the effeminine. He said. The Acquaintas says that

1143
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:42,040
Speaker 1: a man can be called a feminine if they readily

1144
01:10:42,200 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 1: yield to the touch, like a soft breeze rolls through

1145
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:54,599
Speaker 1: and a man falls over. I love this line, properly speaking.

1146
01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:57,280
Speaker 1: And a feminine man this is a quintas, is one

1147
01:10:57,320 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 1: who withdraws from good on account of sorrow caused by

1148
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:09,759
Speaker 1: lack of pleasure, so I'm not getting enough pleasure. Therefore

1149
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 1: you crumble and fall and become weak. I'd argue that

1150
01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:24,840
Speaker 1: we become an effeminine people, weak and soft. The military

1151
01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:29,200
Speaker 1: did this whole study because they were wondering why during

1152
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:33,840
Speaker 1: basic training so many people's bones were breaking, and they

1153
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:35,040
Speaker 1: were they were, they were, they were break like you

1154
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:36,760
Speaker 1: give him a ruck rucksack to have them run, and

1155
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 1: their bones would just break, like brittle bird bones, a

1156
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:44,760
Speaker 1: little puny, brittle bird bone breaking, just like going for

1157
01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:48,519
Speaker 1: a run. So the military to do this whole thing

1158
01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:51,240
Speaker 1: about giving kids more, giving these recruits more calcium with

1159
01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:53,759
Speaker 1: calcium bars and stuff like that. Like when the world's happening,

1160
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:58,760
Speaker 1: it's because there was weak, soft, a feminine attached to pleasure,

1161
01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:04,559
Speaker 1: video games, immediate gratification. Life is too comfortable. Men, boys,

1162
01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:07,479
Speaker 1: they don't they don't run, they don't lift anything. They're

1163
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,479
Speaker 1: just weak. I imagine taking a thirteen year old today

1164
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:13,840
Speaker 1: bringing them back in time one hundred fifty years ago,

1165
01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 1: eighty years ago, when I'm working in the fields with

1166
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:19,720
Speaker 1: dad and right, it's like, oh, it's like a different planets.

1167
01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:23,960
Speaker 1: Kids stages, they're week, they play video games, eat junk.

1168
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:28,120
Speaker 1: They we're like a different species. Were like mollusks more

1169
01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:32,559
Speaker 1: than men. And you see it in an adult men too.

1170
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:37,160
Speaker 1: Men who are attached to the appetites, sexual appetites, food, drink,

1171
01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 1: video games, sleep, porn. These are men. These are men

1172
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 1: who are acting out of pleasure. That's not masculinity, that's

1173
01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:52,760
Speaker 1: a femininity. Masculine men put aside pleasure to do what

1174
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:58,680
Speaker 1: is right and necessary. A feminine men don't. Masculine men

1175
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:04,000
Speaker 1: don't watch porn. Masculine men put aside urges and protect

1176
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:07,240
Speaker 1: and serve and love a single woman and put that

1177
01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:14,599
Speaker 1: woman above himself and his immediate gratification. A feminine males

1178
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 1: have no self control, no self discipline. There are only

1179
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:24,720
Speaker 1: They're slaves to their appetites, slave to their cravings. Masculine

1180
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:31,080
Speaker 1: men are slaves to virtue and reason and build honor

1181
01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:35,720
Speaker 1: in the process. Mike Slater dot locals dot com. That's

1182
01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:38,840
Speaker 1: our website. Join us there, Mike Slader dot locals dot com.

1183
01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:40,600
Speaker 1: Coming up next, I'll tell you the worst thing that

1184
01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:43,360
Speaker 1: I've ever heard so far. At one of these diversity seminars.

1185
01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:45,479
Speaker 1: We'll do a next Mike Slader spread the word Team

1186
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:48,200
Speaker 1: back America. Is the greatest country in the world. The

1187
01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:54,880
Speaker 1: great disappointment continues. You tune in Where's Back? Who is

1188
01:13:54,960 --> 01:14:00,439
Speaker 1: this guy? I didn't like Slater? I guess yes, show

1189
01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:02,280
Speaker 1: is okay, but I don't like them anymore. And I

1190
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:06,280
Speaker 1: want you back back. Where's Buck? Tell you back tomorrow.

1191
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 1: But thanks for letting me fill in for Buck these

1192
01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:11,880
Speaker 1: last few days. I hope we can do it again.

1193
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:16,479
Speaker 1: I have for you this final hour here. After talking

1194
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:18,560
Speaker 1: about the George Floyd trial in the last hour and

1195
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:21,960
Speaker 1: vaccine passports in the first hour, and telling an amazing

1196
01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:28,120
Speaker 1: story of Leonidas and the great feminine virtues, what else

1197
01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 1: do we do? Oh? The true story the minimum wage

1198
01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:34,080
Speaker 1: goes back to the eugenics movement about one hundred years ago.

1199
01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:36,840
Speaker 1: I want to talk in this segment about something that

1200
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:43,599
Speaker 1: an insight that will, if you do it, make your

1201
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:49,880
Speaker 1: life infinitely better. You have infinitely immeasurable more peace and

1202
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,040
Speaker 1: harmony in your home if you do this. The thing

1203
01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:58,479
Speaker 1: is you won't And I say that because I don't.

1204
01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,920
Speaker 1: I just sometimes sometimes I do. But it's really, really,

1205
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:07,479
Speaker 1: really hard. If you can do this thing, though, this

1206
01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:13,519
Speaker 1: is a life changing I don't what you call it practice, Yeah,

1207
01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:16,120
Speaker 1: life changing practice. Let me back it up a second.

1208
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:21,160
Speaker 1: So you've heard, I know Bucks talked about these diversity seminars, diversity, inclusion,

1209
01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,080
Speaker 1: and equity, and how they're the opposite of each of

1210
01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:25,559
Speaker 1: those things, right there. The opposite of diversity, the opposite inclusion,

1211
01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:30,280
Speaker 1: the opposite of equity. San Diego County had one of these.

1212
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:32,760
Speaker 1: It was the Health and Human Services department. They'd a

1213
01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:36,760
Speaker 1: six hour diversity training seminar, right, Healthy Human Services, Like

1214
01:15:36,760 --> 01:15:40,000
Speaker 1: they got nothing better to do, then sit through six

1215
01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:43,599
Speaker 1: hours the whole day of diversity training. Okay, talking about

1216
01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:48,400
Speaker 1: how racist you aren't. So it's all the normal stuff, right,

1217
01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:52,479
Speaker 1: You're born racist. If you deny it, that's proof that

1218
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,920
Speaker 1: you're racist. It's the whole segment. Part of it's about

1219
01:15:55,960 --> 01:16:00,599
Speaker 1: how black people can't be racist because racism is biased power.

1220
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:03,920
Speaker 1: It's all the same nonsense, right. But this is the

1221
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:07,000
Speaker 1: slide that of all the training samminars, this one may

1222
01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:10,040
Speaker 1: be the worst I've seen. This slide. It says at

1223
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:15,040
Speaker 1: the top, dear white people, when you say, and then

1224
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:18,720
Speaker 1: it lists a bunch of things, one of the whole

1225
01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:20,240
Speaker 1: column of things, and then on the other column it

1226
01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:26,280
Speaker 1: says what I hear. Okay, So when you say these things,

1227
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 1: I hear these things. Now, there's always going to be

1228
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 1: a level of misunderstanding in human communication, right, something like

1229
01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 1: words exit my mouth, These sound of vibrations exit my

1230
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:46,280
Speaker 1: mouth and go into the air unchanged. They leave unchanged,

1231
01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:50,360
Speaker 1: they mouth, They travel through the air unchanged, and as

1232
01:16:50,439 --> 01:16:54,240
Speaker 1: soon as they hit your brain, they're immediately filtered through

1233
01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:59,720
Speaker 1: a giant machine of expectations and bias and pride and

1234
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:05,240
Speaker 1: offensiveness and life experience and trauma and selfishness and greed

1235
01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:09,040
Speaker 1: and all. And as soon as that happens, there's going

1236
01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:12,519
Speaker 1: to be misinterpretation. Now, there's always going to be a

1237
01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:15,960
Speaker 1: certain amount of it that's understandable. So if I say, hey,

1238
01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:18,360
Speaker 1: you know what, it's been great to see it. We

1239
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:22,680
Speaker 1: should get some dinner together sometimes, Now what did I say?

1240
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:24,640
Speaker 1: I said we should get to dinner. Some get some

1241
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: dinner sometimes. But your brain, your insecurities or whatever, I think,

1242
01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:31,560
Speaker 1: does he really want to get dinner? Or is he

1243
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:33,720
Speaker 1: just being nice? Does he really like me? Do I

1244
01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:35,240
Speaker 1: really should we really go out? Do we not want

1245
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:37,040
Speaker 1: to go out? Do I like? Right? You're like right,

1246
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:38,640
Speaker 1: you know what? It makes sense? So, like that's a

1247
01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 1: normal range of misunderstanding happens at work, happens a marriage,

1248
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:47,840
Speaker 1: happens all the time. But then there's this. Okay, so

1249
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:55,120
Speaker 1: the slide said, dear white people, when you say, if

1250
01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:58,200
Speaker 1: the riots come near my house, I'm going to get

1251
01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:03,960
Speaker 1: my gun, that's what you say. I hear you fantasize

1252
01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 1: about killing black people. Okay, now listen again, normal range

1253
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:16,800
Speaker 1: of misunderstanding is allowed. But if I say, again, oh Jesus,

1254
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 1: these riots come to my house, I'm gonna get my

1255
01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:21,519
Speaker 1: gun to protect my family, and you hear, whoa, So

1256
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:26,000
Speaker 1: you fantasize about killing me? Oh? What a racist? Like?

1257
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:29,880
Speaker 1: Come on? Like at a certain point, I can't be

1258
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:33,839
Speaker 1: responsible for your delusion. I can't. I can't be responsible

1259
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:38,640
Speaker 1: for your absolute arrangement. How could I be responsible for complete,

1260
01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:42,479
Speaker 1: completely blowing something out of proportion Like that's not me,

1261
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:44,680
Speaker 1: that's on you and your therapist, which you should definitely have,

1262
01:18:44,760 --> 01:18:47,920
Speaker 1: by the way, I can't be responsible to that. I

1263
01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 1: would definitely protect my family if riots come to our house.

1264
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:53,240
Speaker 1: Oh so you want to murder all the blacks? Like?

1265
01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,639
Speaker 1: What that was? That the San Diego help in Human Services?

1266
01:18:56,720 --> 01:19:02,519
Speaker 1: That the diversity slide, the diversity seminar. Okay, so what

1267
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:05,639
Speaker 1: do we do? What are we doing? Here's the suggestion.

1268
01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:11,800
Speaker 1: We need to assume the best of people that were

1269
01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 1: having conversations with and if we have any questions, ask them.

1270
01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:26,320
Speaker 1: Doesn't that sound healthier? Now let me take it to

1271
01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:29,280
Speaker 1: the next level. Here's the Jordan Peterson clip that will

1272
01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:36,400
Speaker 1: change your life. Now, just yesterday I did this and

1273
01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:40,960
Speaker 1: it worked very well. Also, just yesterday I did not

1274
01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:45,679
Speaker 1: do this with my wife and it went not very well.

1275
01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:49,040
Speaker 1: So can I tell you if you do, it'll change

1276
01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:52,880
Speaker 1: your life, But it's very hard to do. Here's Jordan

1277
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:57,360
Speaker 1: Peterson's advice. The next time you get into an argument

1278
01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,639
Speaker 1: with your wife, or your friend or a small group

1279
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:02,240
Speaker 1: of friend, stop the discussion for a moment, and for

1280
01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 1: an experiment, institute this rule. Each person can speak up

1281
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:10,400
Speaker 1: for himself only after he has first restated the ideas

1282
01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:14,519
Speaker 1: and feelings of the previous speaker accurately. What accurately means

1283
01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:18,240
Speaker 1: is they have to agree with your restatement. Now that's

1284
01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:20,880
Speaker 1: an annoying thing to do, because if someone is talking

1285
01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:22,960
Speaker 1: to you and you disagree with them, the first thing

1286
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:24,479
Speaker 1: you want to do is take their argument make the

1287
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,679
Speaker 1: stupidest possible thing out of it. That you can, that's

1288
01:20:27,720 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 1: the strong man, and then demolish it. It's like, so

1289
01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:33,400
Speaker 1: then you can walk away feeling good about it, and

1290
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:38,320
Speaker 1: you know you primates dominated them really nicely. So but

1291
01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:40,320
Speaker 1: that isn't what you do. You say, Okay, well, I'm

1292
01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:42,040
Speaker 1: going to take what you told me, and maybe I'm

1293
01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:44,160
Speaker 1: even going to make your argument stronger than the one

1294
01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:46,560
Speaker 1: you made. That's useful if you're dealing with someone that

1295
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:48,840
Speaker 1: you have to live with because maybe they can't bloody

1296
01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:51,519
Speaker 1: well express themselves very well, but they have something to say,

1297
01:20:52,120 --> 01:20:56,360
Speaker 1: so you make their arguments strong. All right? Then you

1298
01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:59,200
Speaker 1: see what this would mean. It would mean that before

1299
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 1: presenting your own point of view, it would be necessary

1300
01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 1: for you to really achieve the other speaker's frame of reference,

1301
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,280
Speaker 1: to understand his thoughts and feelings so well that you

1302
01:21:07,320 --> 01:21:11,600
Speaker 1: could summarize them for him. Sounds simple, doesn't it, But

1303
01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,920
Speaker 1: if you will try it, you'll find that it's the

1304
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:18,400
Speaker 1: most difficult thing that you've ever done. M I forgot

1305
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:20,439
Speaker 1: about that last line there. Yeah, it's true. I like

1306
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:26,160
Speaker 1: the line I said. You're great, You've primate dominated them. Good, congratulations,

1307
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:30,720
Speaker 1: you've primate dominated your wife. You feel good. So what

1308
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:33,760
Speaker 1: he's talking about is the Steelman making a stealment? We

1309
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:35,760
Speaker 1: know a strong man argument. Strong man argument is you

1310
01:21:36,160 --> 01:21:39,240
Speaker 1: make the other person's argument weaker and then you crush it. Okay,

1311
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:42,200
Speaker 1: big deal. Steel man is you make the other person's

1312
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:46,160
Speaker 1: argument stronger and then you address it. It's absolutely brilliant.

1313
01:21:46,720 --> 01:21:48,280
Speaker 1: So someone says something, you say, all right, let me,

1314
01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:49,439
Speaker 1: I just want to make sure I hear you right,

1315
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:51,600
Speaker 1: and then you repeat what they said, and you got

1316
01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:56,800
Speaker 1: to repeat it so so well that they say, wow,

1317
01:21:56,920 --> 01:22:01,600
Speaker 1: yeah that yeah, that's that's that's perfectly. I wish I

1318
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:08,040
Speaker 1: put it like that. Now you can crush them. But

1319
01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:10,080
Speaker 1: he see how much more noble and heroic that is.

1320
01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:15,880
Speaker 1: No one doesn't. No one doesn't. What are we doing instead? Well,

1321
01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:20,679
Speaker 1: when we have conversations? Well I got one more Peterson

1322
01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:24,920
Speaker 1: clip here, and this goes back to the slide right,

1323
01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:27,920
Speaker 1: the diversity seminar. If Riot's come to my house, I'm

1324
01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:29,880
Speaker 1: gonna go get my gun, and you hear, oh you

1325
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:35,400
Speaker 1: fantasize about killing black people. Here's a Peterson said. One

1326
01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:37,599
Speaker 1: of Roger's points is, well, you have to be oriented

1327
01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:40,439
Speaker 1: properly in order to listen, and the orientation has to

1328
01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:43,000
Speaker 1: be look what I want out of this conversation is

1329
01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 1: that the place we both end up is better than

1330
01:22:44,920 --> 01:22:47,880
Speaker 1: the place we left. That's it. That's what I'm after.

1331
01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:50,000
Speaker 1: And if you're not after that, you got to think,

1332
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:52,960
Speaker 1: why the hell wouldn't you be after that? What could

1333
01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:55,240
Speaker 1: you possibly be after that would be better than that?

1334
01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:59,120
Speaker 1: You walk away smarter and more well equipped for the

1335
01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:02,400
Speaker 1: world than you were before you had the conversation, and

1336
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:05,439
Speaker 1: so does the other person. Well maybe if you're bitter

1337
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:08,719
Speaker 1: and resentful and angry and anxious, and you know, generally

1338
01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:11,720
Speaker 1: annoyed at the world, then that isn't what you want.

1339
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:14,160
Speaker 1: You want the other person to walk away worse than

1340
01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:16,760
Speaker 1: you too, because you're full of revenge. But you know

1341
01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:23,560
Speaker 1: you'll get what you want if you do that. So, bitter, angry, resentful,

1342
01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:26,640
Speaker 1: and anxious, generally annoyed at the world, why are we

1343
01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:32,000
Speaker 1: taking these diversity seminars from these people? These people who

1344
01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 1: are bitter, angry, resentful, anxious and annoyed at the world.

1345
01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:40,280
Speaker 1: So they get up there and they shame everyone. Everyone's

1346
01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:43,880
Speaker 1: shaming everyone when what we really need is more honor.

1347
01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:47,479
Speaker 1: We need more honor. The way to overcome any bias

1348
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:50,680
Speaker 1: or any prejudice is in someone is to build up

1349
01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:55,080
Speaker 1: their honor, but instead we do the opposite. We shame them.

1350
01:23:55,400 --> 01:23:59,879
Speaker 1: We shame people, and then we force people to shame themselves.

1351
01:24:01,000 --> 01:24:03,160
Speaker 1: We forced, in this case, white people to shame themselves.

1352
01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:06,120
Speaker 1: Oh yes, I am so racist. You're right, and we

1353
01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:08,040
Speaker 1: think that will help. No, No, no, we need more

1354
01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:10,840
Speaker 1: honor in our lives, not more shame. What's his name?

1355
01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:15,639
Speaker 1: Mc well? I got the book right here. Grants McCracken

1356
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:18,880
Speaker 1: books called the New Honor Code a simple plan for

1357
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:21,280
Speaker 1: raising our standards and restoring our good names. Great book.

1358
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:25,160
Speaker 1: He says, they're anti racing training is dangerous because it

1359
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:28,400
Speaker 1: asks people to attack their personal honor. Worse, it asks

1360
01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:31,360
Speaker 1: them to attack the very thing we want them to

1361
01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:37,240
Speaker 1: respect in others. That we respect people of color, people

1362
01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:39,000
Speaker 1: different than us is one of the ways we know

1363
01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,559
Speaker 1: we are honorable. It's one of the ways we make

1364
01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:45,160
Speaker 1: ourselves honorable. We respect everyone's dignity as an expression of

1365
01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:47,000
Speaker 1: our own dignity. Yet, yeah, we here, we are. These

1366
01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:49,599
Speaker 1: people are just shaming everyone, and you're supposed to shame

1367
01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:54,679
Speaker 1: yourselves and shame others. No surprise, of course, the woke

1368
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:59,320
Speaker 1: left these die seminars thing to have a completely backwards. Wow.

1369
01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:04,639
Speaker 1: If we assume they have good intentions, they have it backwards.

1370
01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:08,720
Speaker 1: If they have bad intentions, if they're bitter, angers and

1371
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:11,280
Speaker 1: full anxious and generally annoyed at the world and they

1372
01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:15,280
Speaker 1: want everyone to walk away worse, then they're doing a

1373
01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 1: perfect job. Mike Slater dot locals dot com. I'll put

1374
01:25:20,479 --> 01:25:24,839
Speaker 1: that video up on our website. Mike's later dot locals

1375
01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:27,160
Speaker 1: dot com filling it for Buck Sexton's brother the word

1376
01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:28,960
Speaker 1: it's going on Team Buck. Mike's later filling it for

1377
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:31,519
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton. Four one more day, Buck, We'll be back tomorrow.

1378
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:33,240
Speaker 1: I want to play this. Keep here clip here. This

1379
01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:38,000
Speaker 1: is the former Senator from North Dakota Democrat Heidi hit

1380
01:25:38,080 --> 01:25:41,600
Speaker 1: Camp talking about Gina Serrano. This is the ginas She

1381
01:25:41,760 --> 01:25:44,880
Speaker 1: was canceled off of The Mandalorian, the Star Wars show

1382
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:48,559
Speaker 1: on Disney Plus. She was canceled. So here is uh

1383
01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:54,120
Speaker 1: here's this is from Bill Marshall. I like this picture.

1384
01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:57,960
Speaker 1: Who was the woman and the Mandalorian? What did she do?

1385
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:01,600
Speaker 1: She likes something? She was ane? Oh that's different, right,

1386
01:26:01,640 --> 01:26:09,960
Speaker 1: I'm thinking she's not a Nazi. She's she's called other

1387
01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:13,760
Speaker 1: people nat right, which is the Nazi? Okay, everyone's a Nazi. That, um,

1388
01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:16,680
Speaker 1: she does hang with white supremacists like a mel Brooks does.

1389
01:26:17,120 --> 01:26:19,960
Speaker 1: Yea hangs with white I suppose I'm not good subject

1390
01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:22,360
Speaker 1: to defamation. I don't know. I mean it depends on

1391
01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:25,160
Speaker 1: what your definition of white supremacist is. That your the

1392
01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 1: goal post. They're changed a lot. You're guying a clan hood.

1393
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,200
Speaker 1: Who But I think that's great. She listen it. See

1394
01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:36,640
Speaker 1: how cash We're like, oh, yeah, she's a Nazi. But

1395
01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:44,400
Speaker 1: oh well, she she's involved with white supremacy. She hangs

1396
01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:49,120
Speaker 1: around with white supremacists. What are you talking about? That

1397
01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:52,439
Speaker 1: is a ridiculous way to talk. So I want to

1398
01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:56,880
Speaker 1: talk about this term whiteness. Whiteness od it's everywhere. It's awful.

1399
01:26:57,040 --> 01:27:01,120
Speaker 1: You have it, you are it. It's worse than COVID,

1400
01:27:01,200 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Tortures, it kills. It's been around

1401
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:07,240
Speaker 1: for four hundred years. It's never been worse. This whiteness.

1402
01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:11,320
Speaker 1: It's everywhere. La Times, Hollywood's entertainment industry. Unions have a

1403
01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:16,760
Speaker 1: whiteness problem. New York Times, the incredible whiteness of the

1404
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:24,720
Speaker 1: Museum Fashion Collection, the Smithsonian. Facing your whiteness is hard whiteness.

1405
01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:29,920
Speaker 1: What is my whiteness Washington Post. To understand Trump's support,

1406
01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:36,560
Speaker 1: we must think in terms of multiracial whiteness. Just do

1407
01:27:36,640 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 1: a Google new search for whiteness. Saint Louis Dispatch, The

1408
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:46,280
Speaker 1: Insurrection and the devalued currency of whiteness, La Times at Netflix,

1409
01:27:46,400 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 1: Cobra Kai broke out. Now it's whiteness is under a

1410
01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:52,080
Speaker 1: new spotlight. It goes on and on. What is what

1411
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:58,080
Speaker 1: is whiteness? Well, it's nothing, which is the point. It's

1412
01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:00,000
Speaker 1: impossible to define. That's why you can just say, oh, yea,

1413
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 1: she hangs around with white supremacy, supremacist, she's involved with

1414
01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:05,000
Speaker 1: white supremacy. What are you what are you talking about?

1415
01:28:06,320 --> 01:28:09,640
Speaker 1: It's nothing. Whiteness is nothing. It's impossible to define. And

1416
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:11,880
Speaker 1: that's not a bug of the term. That's the feature,

1417
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:14,760
Speaker 1: that's the best part of that term. It just means bad.

1418
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:20,559
Speaker 1: But it's not even about race. It's an ideology because

1419
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:25,240
Speaker 1: other races can be can have whiteness, or be white adjacent,

1420
01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:31,160
Speaker 1: or benefit from whiteness, or have close ties to whiteness.

1421
01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:33,680
Speaker 1: Whiteness is just another word for bad, evil, sinful. As

1422
01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:36,679
Speaker 1: a Nanci Pelosi, it's been an epiphany for the world

1423
01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:39,000
Speaker 1: to see that there are people in our country, led

1424
01:28:39,040 --> 01:28:42,160
Speaker 1: by the president. This is about Trump, who have chosen

1425
01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:48,160
Speaker 1: their whiteness over democracy. See that. So it just means

1426
01:28:48,160 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 1: that people have chosen something bad over something good. Whiteness

1427
01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:56,080
Speaker 1: is a smear. If you don't have to be a

1428
01:28:56,200 --> 01:28:59,400
Speaker 1: too great of a student of history to understand that

1429
01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:05,960
Speaker 1: this goes poorly. Smearing people because of their race doesn't

1430
01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:12,000
Speaker 1: end well. But here I am. I was about to

1431
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:16,000
Speaker 1: go into a whole rant about meritocracy, but meritocracy is whiteness.

1432
01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:19,839
Speaker 1: You look at these slides, let's say aspects of white supremacy.

1433
01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:22,320
Speaker 1: Meritocracy is one of them. This is why you know

1434
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:25,120
Speaker 1: Biden's pick for the number two job at Health and

1435
01:29:25,200 --> 01:29:29,559
Speaker 1: Human Services is the Pennsylvania health secretary who first of all,

1436
01:29:29,600 --> 01:29:31,720
Speaker 1: sent COVID patients back to the nursing homes, just like

1437
01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:35,880
Speaker 1: Cuomo did in New York, while removing her mom from

1438
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:38,600
Speaker 1: the nursing home at the same time. You with me.

1439
01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:42,679
Speaker 1: So she sent COVID patients back to nursing homes, which

1440
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 1: ravaged the nursing homes, and she knew it was a

1441
01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:48,120
Speaker 1: bad decision because she took her mom out of the

1442
01:29:48,200 --> 01:29:52,400
Speaker 1: nursing home at the same time, and Biden's pick for

1443
01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:54,360
Speaker 1: this job at he held the Human services as a

1444
01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:58,719
Speaker 1: man who thinks he's a woman. Now are you telling

1445
01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:01,599
Speaker 1: me there's no what else in the country more qualified

1446
01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:09,679
Speaker 1: for this job qualified? Oh, that's your whiteness speaking, doesn't

1447
01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:13,200
Speaker 1: It's not about it's not about merit who. That's pretty

1448
01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:17,639
Speaker 1: racist of you. It's pretty colonial of you, pretty white

1449
01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:20,720
Speaker 1: supremacist of you. Slater geez. It's all about victimhood. We're

1450
01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:27,120
Speaker 1: here to remove whiteness and white people from positions of

1451
01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:30,080
Speaker 1: power and putting in the marginalized. Now, this guy's white,

1452
01:30:30,120 --> 01:30:33,240
Speaker 1: his name is Richard, but because he's now living as

1453
01:30:33,280 --> 01:30:42,960
Speaker 1: a woman, therefore he can benefit from it all. I

1454
01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:46,040
Speaker 1: love this headline from The Great babylon Be babylon Be.

1455
01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:51,880
Speaker 1: It's like the onion. Far right extremists suggest treating people

1456
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:58,800
Speaker 1: of all races equally. Ooh, that is some pretty far

1457
01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:02,960
Speaker 1: right stuff there. Coming up next, I want to some

1458
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:05,920
Speaker 1: modern day clan stuff right there. I believe we should

1459
01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:08,360
Speaker 1: treat people of all races equally and judge them by

1460
01:31:08,360 --> 01:31:12,559
Speaker 1: the content of their character. Cancel that man. Coming up next,

1461
01:31:12,600 --> 01:31:15,960
Speaker 1: I want to share a story of Telemon and Alexander

1462
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:18,719
Speaker 1: the Great Mike Slater filling it for Buck Sexton. Spread

1463
01:31:18,720 --> 01:31:21,800
Speaker 1: the word. It's going on Team Buck. Mike Slater filling

1464
01:31:21,800 --> 01:31:24,000
Speaker 1: it for Buck Sexton. Buck will be back tomorrow. So

1465
01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:26,280
Speaker 1: this is my last day filling it for Buck. Over

1466
01:31:26,320 --> 01:31:28,280
Speaker 1: the last four it's been wonderful. I kind of feel

1467
01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:31,400
Speaker 1: like it's a Friday because it's the last it's your

1468
01:31:31,479 --> 01:31:35,560
Speaker 1: last segment of us together. So I just want to

1469
01:31:35,560 --> 01:31:37,800
Speaker 1: share something here that I've been thinking about a lot lately.

1470
01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:39,920
Speaker 1: And I don't know who needs to hear it, and

1471
01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:43,920
Speaker 1: it may be wildly irrelevant to you. Put it in

1472
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:46,840
Speaker 1: your back pocket either way, but you may actually really

1473
01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:48,800
Speaker 1: need to hear this today, and I hope, I hope

1474
01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:53,000
Speaker 1: that's you. I love this story. Alexander the Great, Alexander

1475
01:31:53,000 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 1: the Great conquered the Persian Empire and he moved his

1476
01:31:57,560 --> 01:32:01,400
Speaker 1: way into India today would be modern a Pakistan. There's

1477
01:32:01,720 --> 01:32:06,680
Speaker 1: three twenty five BC. And when this Alexander in his

1478
01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:10,000
Speaker 1: massive army, when they got there, they came across these

1479
01:32:10,120 --> 01:32:18,400
Speaker 1: men that they've never seen before, Yogis. They called them

1480
01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:24,519
Speaker 1: hymn sophists, hymn or jim No. It's where we get

1481
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:29,360
Speaker 1: Gymnasium means naked and sophists means wise men. They were

1482
01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:34,479
Speaker 1: called the naked wise men. These Yogis, they had nothing.

1483
01:32:35,439 --> 01:32:38,880
Speaker 1: They spent their entire life in poverty, in deep contemplation

1484
01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:46,640
Speaker 1: and stillness. They owned nothing. They had a loincloth and

1485
01:32:46,760 --> 01:32:50,679
Speaker 1: a begging bowl, and they would congregate in the sun

1486
01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:54,840
Speaker 1: along the banks of rivers. Alexander the Great and his men,

1487
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:57,240
Speaker 1: they've never seen people like this in their entire lives,

1488
01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:01,479
Speaker 1: which it's crazy to think about, right, Like we've I

1489
01:33:01,520 --> 01:33:06,040
Speaker 1: feel like we've seen everything that there is. Right, there's

1490
01:33:06,080 --> 01:33:10,080
Speaker 1: a statue in um I think it's Trafalgar Square in London,

1491
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:13,360
Speaker 1: and it's a statue of a lion. But when the

1492
01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:15,120
Speaker 1: guy who made the statue, he's never seen he never

1493
01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:18,400
Speaker 1: saw a lion before, so he could just do it

1494
01:33:18,520 --> 01:33:22,439
Speaker 1: based off of what he heard, and he used like

1495
01:33:22,520 --> 01:33:26,200
Speaker 1: a dog's body, but dogs and lions have different bodies,

1496
01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:30,280
Speaker 1: like the way their legs, so it's like it's all

1497
01:33:30,320 --> 01:33:32,240
Speaker 1: screwed up. But they've never seen a lion, which is crazy.

1498
01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:33,920
Speaker 1: My kids went to the zoo yesterday saw a line,

1499
01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:36,719
Speaker 1: so like we've we've seen yogi's, Like you could picture

1500
01:33:36,720 --> 01:33:39,840
Speaker 1: a yogi even if you've never seen one in real life.

1501
01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:42,840
Speaker 1: But Alexander's Great, they've never seen these people, like, imagine

1502
01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:46,559
Speaker 1: how bizarre this would be. So Alexander's man, they're looking,

1503
01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:48,400
Speaker 1: they want to pass along this river, but there's a

1504
01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:50,519
Speaker 1: bunch of these silly Yogis in the way and they're meditating.

1505
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:53,439
Speaker 1: So one of Alexander's men they rush ahead, and they

1506
01:33:53,560 --> 01:33:56,519
Speaker 1: try to He tells the yogi's to leave, get out

1507
01:33:56,560 --> 01:34:02,760
Speaker 1: of the way, and this Yogi he says, no, we

1508
01:34:02,880 --> 01:34:04,559
Speaker 1: have as much of a right to this space as anyone.

1509
01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:08,920
Speaker 1: So Alexander sees this going on and he approaches the Yogi.

1510
01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:11,679
Speaker 1: He's sitting cross legged, and he says, you guys, gotta

1511
01:34:11,720 --> 01:34:15,880
Speaker 1: get all the way and the Yogi says no. And

1512
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:19,320
Speaker 1: Alexander's man, he says, don't you know who this man is?

1513
01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:25,040
Speaker 1: This is Alexander the Great. This man has conquered the world.

1514
01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:34,799
Speaker 1: What have you done? And the Yogi and I imagine

1515
01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:36,800
Speaker 1: in this story, I imagine he doesn't. I imagine he's

1516
01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:39,320
Speaker 1: like sitting cross legged and he's staring ahead, or maybe

1517
01:34:39,360 --> 01:34:41,120
Speaker 1: his eyes are closed and he's looking at it and

1518
01:34:41,439 --> 01:34:43,120
Speaker 1: he doesn't even open his eyes. He doesn't move his head,

1519
01:34:43,160 --> 01:34:45,800
Speaker 1: doesn't That's all imagine it. So the guy says he's

1520
01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:48,120
Speaker 1: conquered the world. What have you done? And the Yogi says,

1521
01:34:48,880 --> 01:34:56,240
Speaker 1: I've conquered the need to conquer the world. And Alexander

1522
01:34:56,280 --> 01:35:05,759
Speaker 1: the Great cracked up loved that answer, saluted the yogi,

1523
01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:08,519
Speaker 1: and they found another way around him, and he let

1524
01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:13,719
Speaker 1: them all be I conquered the need to conquer the world.

1525
01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:17,920
Speaker 1: One of the men that was with Alexander one of

1526
01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:21,559
Speaker 1: his right hand man, his name was Teleman. And later

1527
01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:23,080
Speaker 1: on they were sitting by the banks of one of

1528
01:35:23,120 --> 01:35:26,040
Speaker 1: these rivers in India, and Teleman was so impressed with

1529
01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,760
Speaker 1: these Yogis. Tell Himan was a mercenary, lived his life

1530
01:35:28,800 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 1: as a warrior, and he thought it was time to

1531
01:35:36,040 --> 01:35:39,120
Speaker 1: transition out of that life phase and he wanted to

1532
01:35:39,160 --> 01:35:47,240
Speaker 1: become a sage. So tell Himan goes to Alexander and says,

1533
01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:50,960
Speaker 1: life is a battle, isn't it? And how better to

1534
01:35:51,040 --> 01:35:54,800
Speaker 1: train for it than to be a soldier? For have

1535
01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:58,639
Speaker 1: you not noticed of these sages, my friend, that they're

1536
01:35:58,680 --> 01:36:03,479
Speaker 1: the consummate soldier he's talking about. The yogis inured to pain,

1537
01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:07,160
Speaker 1: so pain doesn't bother him. Oblivious to hardship, Each takes

1538
01:36:07,240 --> 01:36:09,519
Speaker 1: up his post at dawn and does not relinquish it

1539
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:13,599
Speaker 1: for thirst, hunger, heat, cold, fatigue. He's cheerful in all

1540
01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:21,040
Speaker 1: weathers self motivated, self governed, self commended. And Alexanders says,

1541
01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:22,800
Speaker 1: are you saying tell him On that your training as

1542
01:36:22,840 --> 01:36:25,080
Speaker 1: a soldier prepares you for the vocation of a sage.

1543
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:27,880
Speaker 1: And tell him On says, no, no, no, no, these

1544
01:36:27,960 --> 01:36:31,799
Speaker 1: men are beyond me. I would have to apprentice myself

1545
01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:36,280
Speaker 1: to them for many lifetimes. These like I could never

1546
01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:39,599
Speaker 1: be as wise as these men are. That's how much

1547
01:36:39,600 --> 01:36:45,120
Speaker 1: he admired them. So that's just a cool story. But

1548
01:36:45,240 --> 01:36:48,280
Speaker 1: here's the relevancy to it, perhaps for you. On my

1549
01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:50,120
Speaker 1: local show a while back, we did a segment on

1550
01:36:50,280 --> 01:36:53,960
Speaker 1: the six stages six life stages of a man. I

1551
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:57,000
Speaker 1: stole it from John Eldritch and the six life stages

1552
01:36:57,080 --> 01:37:09,479
Speaker 1: quickly our boyhood, cowboy, warrior, lover, king, and sage, and

1553
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:12,479
Speaker 1: each of these phases we don't properly define, we don't

1554
01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:15,400
Speaker 1: properly understand, we don't properly raise our kids. Actually, I'm

1555
01:37:15,439 --> 01:37:19,160
Speaker 1: gonna put this on the website if you're interested in

1556
01:37:19,280 --> 01:37:20,800
Speaker 1: knowing more, just for the sake of time. I don't

1557
01:37:20,800 --> 01:37:24,000
Speaker 1: have time to do it here life Stages. I'll put

1558
01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:25,720
Speaker 1: it on micslated out locals dot com and you can

1559
01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:29,120
Speaker 1: listen to a very brief description. Is a great interview

1560
01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:30,960
Speaker 1: you did about these six different life stages and how

1561
01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:33,040
Speaker 1: we don't understand them and therefore we don't do them,

1562
01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:35,840
Speaker 1: and they need to be intentional, and there needs to

1563
01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:38,320
Speaker 1: be a transition between each of them, like a deliberate

1564
01:37:38,680 --> 01:37:41,880
Speaker 1: right of passage between each of these phases. And one

1565
01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:44,960
Speaker 1: of the great failures of our culture today is our

1566
01:37:45,640 --> 01:37:49,280
Speaker 1: lack of respect for our elders, for the sages. And

1567
01:37:49,400 --> 01:37:52,120
Speaker 1: you compare that to another extreme like Japanese culture, the leader,

1568
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:55,320
Speaker 1: the elders are are revered all right, and the Confucian

1569
01:37:55,360 --> 01:38:00,960
Speaker 1: ethic it's called filial piety, filial piety, respect for elders.

1570
01:38:01,160 --> 01:38:05,880
Speaker 1: In America, we have a youth culture. Youth culture, right,

1571
01:38:05,960 --> 01:38:09,280
Speaker 1: That's why all of our music is terrible, because it's

1572
01:38:09,320 --> 01:38:14,200
Speaker 1: all focused around appealing to kids. This is why the

1573
01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:20,000
Speaker 1: great global warming leader in America is Greta Thunberg. Okay,

1574
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,040
Speaker 1: she's a kid. I saw an article about her the

1575
01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:25,800
Speaker 1: other day. She's like, she's like eighteen now, but the

1576
01:38:25,920 --> 01:38:29,439
Speaker 1: picture was still of her when she was twelve. Right,

1577
01:38:29,479 --> 01:38:31,639
Speaker 1: we live in a youth centric culture. Kids run the show,

1578
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,600
Speaker 1: kids run the house. It's just very It's based on

1579
01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:37,360
Speaker 1: this very romantic and i'd say incorrect idea that youth

1580
01:38:37,400 --> 01:38:41,160
Speaker 1: are unspoiled, they're born perfect, and they get ruined the

1581
01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:44,760
Speaker 1: older they become. Right, that's the romantic idea, that's the

1582
01:38:44,840 --> 01:38:49,720
Speaker 1: Russouian idea, that you're born perfect and pure and civilization

1583
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:52,599
Speaker 1: ruins you. So we need to listen to the pure,

1584
01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:56,760
Speaker 1: innocent children. And I think folly is bound up in

1585
01:38:56,800 --> 01:38:58,880
Speaker 1: the heart of a child. And kids are idiots, and

1586
01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:01,600
Speaker 1: they need to be taught and raised and trained on

1587
01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:05,040
Speaker 1: how to become adults. Very different worldview, and our culture

1588
01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:11,719
Speaker 1: today is mostly the youth centric one. Then we also

1589
01:39:11,800 --> 01:39:14,200
Speaker 1: have a culture where your worth as a human is

1590
01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:18,759
Speaker 1: determined based off your productiveness in the marketplace. And younger

1591
01:39:18,840 --> 01:39:21,439
Speaker 1: people can work harder than older people. So these older people,

1592
01:39:21,479 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 1: we just toss them aside. Who needs them anymore. We

1593
01:39:25,479 --> 01:39:30,479
Speaker 1: don't have a culture in America the values old wisdom.

1594
01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:33,000
Speaker 1: We don't have a culture that values ancient wisdom like

1595
01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:36,320
Speaker 1: like old books, and we don't like we tear down statues, right,

1596
01:39:36,400 --> 01:39:39,360
Speaker 1: And we also don't have a culture that values old people.

1597
01:39:40,120 --> 01:39:43,120
Speaker 1: We look at old people's backwards, super racist. They're not

1598
01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:47,560
Speaker 1: with the times. So because of that, we have a

1599
01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:50,040
Speaker 1: tough time in our culture with people transitioning from the

1600
01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:55,800
Speaker 1: stage of king to sage. So king is you're in

1601
01:39:55,960 --> 01:39:58,240
Speaker 1: charge of things. You're in charge of a business, you

1602
01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:01,559
Speaker 1: have employees, you have people under you, you are raising

1603
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:06,320
Speaker 1: your family, you have a wife, kids, you volunteer at

1604
01:40:06,360 --> 01:40:09,320
Speaker 1: different things, you lead organizations. Right, people look to you.

1605
01:40:09,400 --> 01:40:11,639
Speaker 1: You're the king, You're in charge. You bring order and stability.

1606
01:40:11,680 --> 01:40:17,479
Speaker 1: It's extremely important. And then when you're getting older, people

1607
01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:19,720
Speaker 1: don't want to let go of that because they think

1608
01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:21,120
Speaker 1: that's the end of their life and they're going to die.

1609
01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:25,840
Speaker 1: And what we need in our culture is to really

1610
01:40:25,880 --> 01:40:28,160
Speaker 1: celebrate the next stage of life, which is the sage.

1611
01:40:30,360 --> 01:40:34,559
Speaker 1: Sage means wise man, and you Greece they had seven sages.

1612
01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:40,840
Speaker 1: We need more sages in America. They're not in power,

1613
01:40:42,400 --> 01:40:45,679
Speaker 1: but they're mentors to the kings who are in positions

1614
01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:48,880
Speaker 1: of authority. Because we have so many kings out there

1615
01:40:48,880 --> 01:40:51,519
Speaker 1: who are flying blind. They're living without the wisdom of

1616
01:40:51,520 --> 01:40:57,439
Speaker 1: people who have already made all those mistakes before. So

1617
01:40:57,560 --> 01:40:59,720
Speaker 1: we need to change our culture, we need kings that

1618
01:40:59,840 --> 01:41:02,599
Speaker 1: want sage advice, and we need sages who are willing

1619
01:41:02,640 --> 01:41:09,559
Speaker 1: to give kingly advice. I don't know how to change

1620
01:41:09,600 --> 01:41:12,880
Speaker 1: that in our culture other than to encourage you. I mean,

1621
01:41:12,920 --> 01:41:15,360
Speaker 1: maybe it's in our churches, but I think it's just

1622
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:16,960
Speaker 1: one on one. Like I just want to encourage you

1623
01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:20,720
Speaker 1: to reach out to a sage or if you are

1624
01:41:20,920 --> 01:41:23,080
Speaker 1: in that sage phase, to really embrace that and reach

1625
01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:26,360
Speaker 1: out to a king. And maybe it should be done

1626
01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:29,400
Speaker 1: in our churches, right, Really connect older people with younger

1627
01:41:29,479 --> 01:41:34,080
Speaker 1: people in business too, like connect younger the current leaders

1628
01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:37,600
Speaker 1: with the leaders who were and get some advice. And

1629
01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:41,479
Speaker 1: think of Telamon, who was a credible warrior who traveled

1630
01:41:41,520 --> 01:41:43,559
Speaker 1: the world and conquered the world with Alexander. The great.

1631
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:46,400
Speaker 1: People should be admired him him, the sages should be

1632
01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:49,040
Speaker 1: admiring him, but he wanted to be one of them.

1633
01:41:51,400 --> 01:41:55,679
Speaker 1: So if you're in that warrior king's stage of life,

1634
01:41:55,720 --> 01:42:00,400
Speaker 1: that's awesome, let's crush it. But find a sage. And

1635
01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:02,519
Speaker 1: if you're in the sage stage of life, find that

1636
01:42:03,120 --> 01:42:06,519
Speaker 1: be a mentor find the king, find the warrior, because

1637
01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:08,559
Speaker 1: for either way that can be one of the most

1638
01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:12,320
Speaker 1: fulfilling relationships you could possibly make, and I think our

1639
01:42:12,360 --> 01:42:14,759
Speaker 1: culture is desperately in need of more of it, because

1640
01:42:14,840 --> 01:42:17,760
Speaker 1: right now we're all just flying blind. Mike Slader dot

1649
01:42:38,560 --> 01:42:40,000
Speaker 1: is a while back, but there was an article in

1650
01:42:40,040 --> 01:42:43,840
Speaker 1: the La Times, what can you do about the Trump

1651
01:42:43,880 --> 01:42:47,920
Speaker 1: bites next door? Very short of the story is she's

1652
01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:53,559
Speaker 1: in Tahoe and it's snowed and her neighbor shoveled her walkway,

1653
01:42:53,880 --> 01:42:59,920
Speaker 1: shoveled her driveway and did a great job. But they're

1654
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:06,559
Speaker 1: Trump supporters, and she turns it into a race thing about, oh,

1655
01:43:06,640 --> 01:43:08,439
Speaker 1: this is the thing that white people do to each other.

1656
01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:12,440
Speaker 1: You know, white people help out white people, but you know, Hezbollah,

1657
01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:15,400
Speaker 1: the terrorist group in the Middle East. They also giveaway

1658
01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:18,320
Speaker 1: free things to their supporters, and so did the Nazis.

1659
01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:21,800
Speaker 1: She literally says that. She says, my neighbor supported a

1660
01:43:21,880 --> 01:43:24,759
Speaker 1: man who showed near murderous contempt for the majority of Americans.

1661
01:43:27,520 --> 01:43:30,080
Speaker 1: I can't give my neighbors absolution. It's not mine to

1662
01:43:30,160 --> 01:43:32,560
Speaker 1: give free driveway work. As nice as it is, is

1663
01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:35,720
Speaker 1: just not the same currency as justice and truth. And

1664
01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:41,600
Speaker 1: they're not looking for absolution anyway. I mean, this is

1665
01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:43,480
Speaker 1: a mate, Like she just goes on and just eviscerates

1666
01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:47,040
Speaker 1: this guy, and this is what the guy gets for

1667
01:43:47,560 --> 01:43:53,000
Speaker 1: shoveling her driveway. This is someone who is addicted to hate.

1668
01:43:54,080 --> 01:44:01,320
Speaker 1: Hate is a powerful drug. Read a study they followed

1669
01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:06,240
Speaker 1: eighty nine former white supremacists. Their entire lives were just

1670
01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:11,800
Speaker 1: seeped in hatred and that's what they were addicted to.

1671
01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:15,080
Speaker 1: And this is true for people of all races. It's

1672
01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:18,280
Speaker 1: not a white thing. It's a human experience, and you

1673
01:44:18,360 --> 01:44:21,240
Speaker 1: don't just snap out of hate into love. It's a

1674
01:44:21,320 --> 01:44:25,920
Speaker 1: drug and people are addicted to it. People are people

1675
01:44:25,920 --> 01:44:29,439
Speaker 1: are addicted to it personally, and business models depend on it.

1676
01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:32,200
Speaker 1: That's the worst part about it. Business models depend on it.

1677
01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:34,559
Speaker 1: Bureaucracies depend on it. We talked the other day about

1678
01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:36,879
Speaker 1: Ohio State twelve million dollars a year and their diversity

1679
01:44:36,920 --> 01:44:40,800
Speaker 1: inclusion equity departments, the top paid guys two hundred seventy

1680
01:44:40,800 --> 01:44:42,320
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars a year. There's a bunch of people.

1681
01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:44,599
Speaker 1: There's no way any of those people making six figures

1682
01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:49,120
Speaker 1: are going to be like, oh, we're done. Race relations

1683
01:44:49,160 --> 01:44:51,360
Speaker 1: are solved here at Ohio State. Fantastic. It'll just go

1684
01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:54,920
Speaker 1: on forever. The bureaucracy depends on it. Business models depend

1685
01:44:55,000 --> 01:44:58,599
Speaker 1: on it. People's addictions depend on it. It's really hard

1686
01:44:59,560 --> 01:45:01,240
Speaker 1: to get of hate out of your lives and hate

1687
01:45:01,240 --> 01:45:02,880
Speaker 1: out of your society. We were doing a pretty good

1688
01:45:02,960 --> 01:45:05,400
Speaker 1: job of it, but then people really started to monetize

1689
01:45:05,439 --> 01:45:08,479
Speaker 1: it like never before. And I know we already quoted

1690
01:45:08,479 --> 01:45:11,400
Speaker 1: George Peterson in this hour, but I'll do it again.

1691
01:45:12,360 --> 01:45:15,160
Speaker 1: He has a great riff on fixing yourself. He said,

1692
01:45:15,200 --> 01:45:17,760
Speaker 1: blaming others for your problems as a complete waste of time.

1693
01:45:18,800 --> 01:45:23,120
Speaker 1: When you do that, you don't learn anything. You can't grow,

1694
01:45:23,520 --> 01:45:26,559
Speaker 1: you can't mature, thus you can't make your life better.

1695
01:45:28,160 --> 01:45:30,720
Speaker 1: In my three decades as a clinical psychologist, I've learned

1696
01:45:30,720 --> 01:45:34,200
Speaker 1: that there's two fundamental attitudes towards life and its sorrows.

1697
01:45:35,520 --> 01:45:38,920
Speaker 1: Those with the first attitude to blame the world, those

1698
01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:42,960
Speaker 1: with the second to ask what they could do differently.

1699
01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:46,759
Speaker 1: I read a study recently and it was a study

1700
01:45:46,800 --> 01:45:49,120
Speaker 1: of it was either CEOs or millionaires, but you know,

1701
01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:53,240
Speaker 1: maybe I think it was millionaires. And they did a

1702
01:45:53,280 --> 01:45:57,120
Speaker 1: psychological analysis of them and they said the starkest difference

1703
01:45:57,120 --> 01:46:01,559
Speaker 1: between millionaires and not millionaires is when they fail. When

1704
01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:06,519
Speaker 1: a millionaire failed, they blamed themselves and they saw it

1705
01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:08,280
Speaker 1: as an opportunity to get better and learn, and they

1706
01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:11,160
Speaker 1: did better. I suppose other people who blame the world

1707
01:46:11,240 --> 01:46:13,200
Speaker 1: blame others and therefore don't learn and don't get better.

1708
01:46:15,560 --> 01:46:18,799
Speaker 1: It's gonna be very hard to break this world's addiction

1709
01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:25,080
Speaker 1: to hate, right. There's such a grift out there, right,

1710
01:46:25,080 --> 01:46:27,759
Speaker 1: there's people just raking in the money with these diversity

1711
01:46:27,760 --> 01:46:29,479
Speaker 1: seminars in these books. There was a while and it's

1712
01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:31,479
Speaker 1: probably still true now, but the number one books are

1713
01:46:31,479 --> 01:46:36,400
Speaker 1: all these these anti racist books. It's working, and politically

1714
01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:39,280
Speaker 1: it's working. Still people still haven't caught on to what

1715
01:46:39,439 --> 01:46:44,400
Speaker 1: this is. The activists are infiltrating, have infiltrated our churches already.

1716
01:46:45,439 --> 01:46:49,040
Speaker 1: So there is an ideological battle. There's a march through

1717
01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:53,439
Speaker 1: the institutions that is almost complete. Maybe business was the

1718
01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:55,640
Speaker 1: last domino to fall, but you see how businesses have

1719
01:46:55,720 --> 01:47:01,240
Speaker 1: gone completely awoke, and it's all based on hate and division.

1720
01:47:01,880 --> 01:47:03,680
Speaker 1: And the people who come in and preach unity, you're

1721
01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:08,040
Speaker 1: called racist. You preach unity, you say, you say, oh,

1722
01:47:08,040 --> 01:47:10,479
Speaker 1: we should judge people by their character. Oh, you're denying

1723
01:47:10,520 --> 01:47:13,439
Speaker 1: the lived experience of people of color. You're the racist

1724
01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:16,880
Speaker 1: for saying we need to judge. Oh, you believe in meritocracy. Oh,

1725
01:47:17,120 --> 01:47:21,400
Speaker 1: that's a system of structural racism that is defined what

1726
01:47:21,600 --> 01:47:24,040
Speaker 1: merit is. And it's a system that keeps people of

1727
01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:27,120
Speaker 1: call or app blah blah blah. But you can't fix systems.

1728
01:47:27,120 --> 01:47:28,800
Speaker 1: You can only fix yourself. And the only way to

1729
01:47:28,840 --> 01:47:31,120
Speaker 1: fix yourself is to stop blaming others. He says this

1730
01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:33,160
Speaker 1: the Jordan. He says, the proper way to fix the

1731
01:47:33,200 --> 01:47:36,679
Speaker 1: world is not to fix the world. There's no reason

1732
01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:38,559
Speaker 1: to assume that you're even up to such a task.

1733
01:47:40,240 --> 01:47:43,519
Speaker 1: But you can't fix yourself. You'll do no one any

1734
01:47:43,560 --> 01:47:47,000
Speaker 1: harm by doing so, And in that way, at least

1735
01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:54,120
Speaker 1: you'll make the world a better place. Mike's Later dot
