Great job, Matt. Millions of people are with you, including the vast millions who watch Joe Rogan regularly on the internet. Cry-bullies go home; into your rooms where you can play with your toys then hurl them out of your cots. Bwaaaa. Matt's calling!!

"Bait and switch". And, Matt, trans activism is deeply misogynistic.
Apart from all that, this is all absolutely hilarious!! There are some wonderful young Americans who ask questions during the Q&A session and this gives me hope. I don't agree with Matt on his views about homosexuality, but this doesn't discount the huge truths he speaks relating to everything else. And I don't have to agree with people I admire, just as they don't have to agree with me.
Matt boasts he doesn't have a college degree - this gives him authenticity, sense and intelligence. (The great German actor Conrad Veidt was a high-school drop out and the most highly paid, successful and prestigious actor in the Weimar Republic!!)

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
I'm too old and fat to run a marathon: this gives me athleticism, competitiveness and integrity.
Whereas your hero Dr McWhorter presumably has a PhD. Clearly lacks all those qualities this imbecile Walsh so vaingloriously claims for himself.
PS: I've no idea whether his arguments have any merit - I haven't watched. I'm just reacting to the ludicrous idea that lacking an education enchances intelligence, sense and authenticity. And as somebody who has often mentioned her own education, Belle, I'm surprised you're buying it - unless in fact the claim is yours, not his, which would be even worse. And it's his arguments that will demonstrate whether he has intelligence, sense and authenticity.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
It's really clever to comment on something you haven't heard or read. I have no idea about the merits of his argument but he's not entitled to one because he didn't go to university. This is exactly the kind of self-regarding tripe you'd get from the ABC!!barney wrote: ↑Fri Mar 03, 2023 9:33 pmI'm too old and fat to run a marathon: this gives me athleticism, competitiveness and integrity.

If you measure the success or correctness of somebody's argument purely on the basis of a university degree then that's a self-limiting outlook. My son in WA has no university degree and he's smarter than anybody I know who has one!! Why? Because he listens, processes, is not burdened by ideology and is a sociologically imaginative and economically progressive man.
Matt's sin is driving a through truck the left's horrible ideologies. He's not an educated idiot so that gives him a distinct advantage. And he was so right when he said "it took the most educated advanced nation in the world had to come up with this bat-s**t crazy trans ideology". Sadly, all the idiotic ideas are coming from the academy today. As Jordan says, "if you paid university professors the same as bankers they'd be capitalists and not marxists". As an intellectual in the university system for decades he knows what he's talking about and, by god, he's nailed it. And, like me, he has a healthy contempt for most of them - especially when they take the intellectually lazy group-think road because of cowardice, promotion, empire-building or pressure.
Matt has 6 children under 9 so I think he's qualified to know what is in the best interests of children and what is dangerous to them. He knows what I do; young people are killing themselves in droves like never before and there's a strong nexus between that and the permissive/enabling culture promoted today by progressives. Young people want to know where the adults are and those questions are not being answered for them. The world is a frightening place when adults are missing in action, as I've often said before. But what would I know, being a retired teacher and having raised 4, sometimes 5, children?
Drs. Loury and McWhorter are fed up with all this as well. Bari Weiss left the New York Times for the same reason. They are often lone voices calling out the cowardly behaviour of their peers. You lose your soul, inch by inch, in not standing up for basic truths and remaining afraid to say what needs to be said. I'm guessing those good Professors in the minority, McLoury, McWhorter, Peterson, Haidt, Lukianoff et al - are pushing back against exactly that. They're fighting 'the commissars of woke". Dr. Loury is more direct; he calls out certain black academics feted for their 'research' on critical race theory as "empty suits". And he and John actually laugh about them!! I think that, at the end of the day, all you can do with much of the wackadoodle Left is to just laugh. As someone said to me, 'they're rigid, narrow-minded and doctrinaire so it's futile trying to discuss anything at all with them; they've stopped thinking!!!"
The stupidity that comes from educated people, eg. our vainglorious Greens Leader in the Australian parliament, is worthy of a tome of its own. I won't even mention institutionalized naivete and the wider corporate model of crushing group-think.
I'll support The Daily Wire crew as they're amongst the few out there talking really intelligent, common sense. Turns out that sense isn't so common these days.
Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
Uh oh, JK Rowling is an ideological antagonist pushing back on trans ideologies - after a hiding and cancellation by the self-appointed elite (AKA 'the elect'). But, take no notice of her - she's only got a BA from Exeter University. The rest of this is standardized feminism, but the arguments are now skewed in terms of men posing as women and appropriating womens' space! I don't buy that, but the point is that Matt Walsh isn't the only person concerned. Far from it.
JK Rowling and the trans debate: women are at war with men again — but this time is different
An angry, brilliant classic of feminist philosophy, Defending Women’s Spaces not only challenges the continuing marginalisation of women but reveals the masculine appropriation of feminine space that makes it possible.
By ANTONELLA GAMBOTTO-BURKE
“I will begin by asserting that human beings are not assigned a sex at birth, but that our biological sex is observed and recorded.”
So writes the British feminist, Karen Ingala Smith, in her new book, Defending Women’s Spaces.
“Our biological sex is in reality determined by our chromosomes at fertilisation,” she continues, and “sex differentiation in an embryo begins after six to seven weeks of gestation.”
Such statements put her at odds with the British government, which has recently been in knots over how to define “woman”. (Sorry, am I on another planet? Did I read this right??)
It brings her in line with seminal feminist Germaine Greer, who expressed similar sentiments in 2015: “Just because you lop off your dick and then wear a dress doesn’t make you a woman. I’ve asked my doctor to give me long ears and I’m going to wear a brown coat but that won’t turn me into a cocker spaniel.” And with JK Rowling, who has objected to the term “people who menstruate.” But what harm can there be in individuals aligning with, or in demanding to be acknowledged as, the opposite gender, and how does it affect the safety, status and wellbeing of women?
Ingala Smith, who is chief executive of a charity devoted to ending violence against women, presents a compelling argument that transgender women – 90 to 95 per cent of whom still have a penis – are not biological women.
Throughout the book, she notes that the debate has been dominated by males who identify as women “because it is almost always males who are seeking to breach boundaries set up to protect women”.
In short: women are again at war with biological men, if in a different form. Part of the issue is that the terms “sex” and “gender” are commonly understood to be synonyms (“just a few steps from this until the word woman becomes a social rather than a biological category”).
While Ingala Smith expresses sympathy for hate crimes against trans people (the most recent high profile case being the murder of Brianna Ghey, a vulnerable British 16-year-old trans student, by a girl and a boy, both 15), she has for years lobbied against the application of meritocratic standards to crime victims. As she notes, the most overlooked of all adult hate crimes – normalised, ignored – are not against trans people, but unexceptional women.
The sex imbalance between victims and perpetrators of domestic and sexual violence is, as Ingala Smith reports, staggering. In the UK alone in the year ending March 2020, 74 per cent of domestic abuse-related victims of criminal damage and arson were women; 77 per cent of victims of public order offences were women; 73 per cent of victims of crimes against the person were women; 94 per cent of domestic abuse-related sexual offences were women; and 83 per cent of victims of high frequency repeat crimes (more than 10 crimes) were women.
Ingala Smith believes that countless female victims of male violence are, in essence, being thrown under the bus by transwomen activists and the prevailing ideology, which prioritises the needs and wants of a tiny, colourful, elective minority over the majority of the population.
As Ingala Smith points out, it was found in 2018 that just under 90 per cent of sexual assaults, harassment, and voyeurism in changing rooms occurred in mixed-sex facilities, and that two-thirds of sexual assaults in leisure facilities and pools occurred in mixed-sex changing rooms. Despite these and other findings – that transgender prison inmates have been shown to be five times more likely to carry out sexual attacks than other prisoners, say – under revised policy guidance, most UK prisoners are now located “according to their gender as recognised by law”.
Ingala Smith cites numerous cases in which violent biological men with trans identities have been transferred to women’s prisons, “seeking better access to females and young children through presenting in an apparently female way”, adding, “At least 70 per cent of women in prison are victim-survivors of domestic violence and abuse, 53 per cent of women reporting having experienced emotional, physical or sexual abuse as a child. For many women, incarceration and the withdrawal of their liberty may be the one time in their life that they are removed from men’s violence and abuse.”
The desires of imprisoned transwomen also trump those of imprisoned women. When a convicted six foot-plus (1.82m) trans rapist went on to sexually assault a number of his female inmates, it made no difference to the privileges he was granted – access to make up, wigs, and so on – but which the women were uniformly denied.
Observing that the same principles continue to be applied to women’s refuges and similar organisations, Ingala Smith stresses that women’s rights “to safety and dignity, whether they are serving time in prisons or working in them, had clearly been accorded secondary importance to the feelings, wishes and management issues posed by violent males in each of these cases.”
An angry, brilliant classic of feminist philosophy, Defending Women’s Spaces not only challenges the continuing marginalisation of women but reveals the masculine appropriation of feminine space that makes it possible. Single-sex spaces for women have always been essential, particularly those providing “specialist services delivered by women, to women who are victim-survivors of men’s violence.”

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
You have totally missed the point. I am specifically not commenting on Walsh's argument, as I made crystal clear.

I am not arguing that or the reverse, that a uni education is what determines the quality of an argument.Belle wrote: ↑Fri Mar 03, 2023 11:12 pmIt's really clever to comment on something you haven't heard or read.

I am accusing you of an utterly asinine and ridiculous prejudice because it is YOU who has specifically stated that one has more intelligence, sense and authenticity simply because one doesn't have a university degree. That is YOUR claim, Belle, in the opening post of the thread. It is probably the most fatuous you have ever made here - a big claim, I know. For myself, I'll judge an argument on its merits as I perceive them. You should try that. Further, I am totally certain that Dr McWhorter would think your claim as reprehensible as I do.
Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
Being of the hard left, Barney, you've missed the point (as is typical of this cohort). And the boat. You speak about 'reprehensible' yet I've never seen a single instance of you standing up for a conservative moral value. I don't care whether you do or not, as you aren't my friend, but I point out the hypocrisy of running with the hares and hunting with the hounds.
https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/03/0 ... ag-queens/
I don't speak to friends, relatives or peers about this stuff, preferring to fight the culture wars on behalf of conservatives and their children right here on social media. As Dr. Peterson says, all of us can do something - no matter how small - to try and fight back against tyranny.
Too many miserable young people, too many suicides, too much indoctrination, neglect, shattered values systems, too much victimhood, too much you-can-be-anything-you-want.... bla bla bla. It's NOT HELPING them. Way too much social media for kids.
Just because some 'expert' writes on "The Conversation" that if you don't go along with your childrens' body/sexual dysmorphia they'll kill themselves; absolute rot. They're killing themselves PERIOD. Adults have to return to the discussion; people like Matt Walsh and the Daily Wire crew, who are conservative family-minded people and not hardened ideologues who want to be their kids' best friends, bowing and scraping before the terrifying and ubiquitous woke commissars. It's no coincidence that in our extended family there are two 'transitioning' boys in two separate relationships. This is a family which has followed every woke fashion and hard left diktat to the letter and, above all, emphasized that having a university degree was the most prized part of a successful life. Educated, yes. Intelligent, no. (My late father - a very smart professional - once said that for many university graduates their educations ceased when they left the campus.)
Enabling doesn't help children. Or society. Somebody has to have moral authority and I agree with Matt; that social media takes children away from their parents. But where to? What is the place that is a substitute for parental authority? Absolute bloody hell.
A real adult would say "you can have screens when you're 15 and just for a couple of hours a day in front of your father or myself; meantime, you can use them if you have to complete something for school". But adults have abandoned authority, all of them impotently crying "it's too late; we cannot take screens from our kids". My daughter went to school with a friend whose family had no television. People laughed about that, saying it wasn't possible. Today I see a family of successful adults who've forged their own paths in life, who are gentle and sensitive and who maintain close family ties.
NOTE: Most of the conservative young people in Matt Walsh's Q&A section in his presentation were from non-white European families. And one man made a very salient point; if you work in Silicon Valley the way to escape indoctrination and woke propaganda is to opt for the "contract" route, avoiding altogether the HR departments.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
Is that your attempt at an apology, Belle? You wrote that someone had intelligence, sense and authenticity precisely because he had no university degree. Or are you standing by that? That what counts, what's really important, is not to be educated? That education is always and only an impediment to intelligence, sense and authenticity? Is that really your argument? What I pointed out, apart from the sheer fatuity of such a stance, is that others of your heroes, such as Dr McWhorter, would definitely disagree. And that is in fact the case.
I'm only of the hard-left in your proto-fascist realm. Diegobuono and Modernistfan have both accused me of being conservative (if, in fact, it's an accusation). But I don't think that money is the only measure of probity and success, so to you I can see why I'm hard left. Along with 98.5% of the global population.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
Just curious. You're now ignoring me, which usually means you've conceded. But I'd like you to spell it out: are you still seriously suggesting that a university education necessarily removes intelligence, sense and authenticity?
Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
From " Men Yell At Me " recently:
" This week, the dingus is the man who used to be so liberal until you chuds forced him to spend the rest of his life angry about an M&M changing it’s footwear. Let’s hear from him now.
Listen up nerds, it’s me a man who was definitely liberal. I was so liberal I work for a Libertarian think tank and think that yeah, feminism totally went a little too far. And maybe all those protestors should shout a little less, smile a smidge more, and make their signs a little nicer. Perhaps when you write, “We want reproductive rights!” You could add little flowers? Or when you write, “You are legislating us out of existence” you could draw a little heart. It makes me want to oppress you more when you sound so sad and desperate. And that’s on you.
And I was so liberal until you all cancel cultured me into being conservative. That’s right. One time someone told me to perhaps not say a slightly racist thing and I flew into a blind rage and was forced to vote for Donald John Trump. And it’s your fault. You did this. How did that work out for us? All our American norms stomped on harder than a New York City curb. A few Federal laws were casually forgotten. Some rights were repealed. But not mine.
I was such a good liberal once. I did very liberal things like give the poor people my expired caviar and dabbled in some light tax fraud. That is, I was liberal, until someone said, “it’s not nice to kick puppies, please stop.” So much for the idea of “liberal tolerance.” Libs really show their hypocrisy when they say things like, “Stop knocking ice cream cones out of the hands of small children. What is wrong with you?” After those experiences, I’ve had no choice but to spend the rest of my life angry about “trigger warnings”, and kissing my poster of Ronald Regan every night before bed.
So, I’m here to warn you. If you don’t stop talking about how these candidates are doing bad things like banning books, defunding public schools, and making it legal to bully trans kids, I might be forced to vote for one of them. And is that what you want? Is it?
Can’t we just have a simple friendly conversation without you saying “Sir, my name isn’t broad, it’s Samantha”?
Listen, every time you tell me not to stare at your boobs when I talk to you, you push me one step further to reanimating the corpse of Jefferson Davis and personally installing him into the Oval Office. Is that what you want? "

What is this "trans ideology?" Some uneducated idiot at CPAC got up and started talking about"trans ideology". If a person lives 30 years feeling like he was born in the wrong body, are they an "ideology?" and not a person?
One central ideology in this nation is the "right to life liberty and pursuit of happiness". Doesn't a trans person have that right?
Not if the uneducated idiots at CPAC have their way. They're talking about "eradicating transgenderism altogether". That's literally what they're saying. We all know where this leads (though the same uneducated idiots protest otherwise), and it's not a good place.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
What's frightening - and we've all seen it over recent years - is how the whacko extreme moves to marginal, and then almost to mainstream. At least mainstream enough to have a big influence, like the Freedom Caucus.
Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
This is absolutely hilarious!! Apparently "what is a woman?" is now 'a trick question'.
Come on, folks; the Left is rotting from the head. It all reminds me of the Old Soviet empire when battalions of young people can be seen jumping through hoops to show their regimentation, following the orders of their masters!!
You end up losing the ability to answer THE most fundamental questions when you jump in obedience!!

You couldn't make this up!!!!
I have had a lot of gay friends in my lifetime and my sister is gay. I have always loved and enjoyed their friendship and have never made a judgment, just as they haven't about me. But this latest trans idiocy is a bridge way too far, especially the propagandizing of suggestible young minds - more reminiscent of the USSR, China and North Korea. It is unacceptable on any measure and the Left needs to drop this obsession or it will become a laughing stock.
On this site I posted Conrad Veidt's film "Anders als die Andern" and its sensitive portrayal of homosexuality. And having read Wilde's biography and his depredations in Reading Jail I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. Who cares what people do within their own bedrooms! But I won't - absolutely NOT - have children brainwashed with this stuff by people who want our faces rubbed in their sexuality 24/7.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
At least Biden does not hold rallies in Wacko, Texas.
With that, let me propose a toast to the Woke!
Écrasez le Droit!

Biden, the President who promotes perversion of biological humanity. No whataboutery.
Oh, but 'the science is settled'? Yeah, everything BUT human biological science!!
More epic hypocrisy from the Left.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
It's the Right that has made this a partisan political issue. It should be based entirely on children's wellbeing, not which political party you support.
Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
Oh, so you cannot drink or vote until age 18 but you're old enough to know if you want gender reassignment!! Got it now.
Culturally and morally the Democrats - who support all this - are way beyond the realm of decency. It is the Left who has fetishized and promoted trans issues. It is the US President who has refused to say what defines a woman; it is the same man who showers compliments over trans individuals. Perverse, to say the least of it. No wonder our young people are morally, intellectually and psychologically disturbed and confused in record numbers. They want to know who the adults are!!
The Left has lost its moral compass and they find it soon, as the working classes need a champion.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
There is no need for government to weigh in on the age-old question of what constitutes a woman.
The rightists demanding further explanation are asking in bad faith. They tend to be biodolatrous absolutists whose minds are already closed on the subject.
Noblesse oblige.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
It's patently obvious that the Right has no moral compass whatsoever. Look at their shameless persecution of LGBT and trans people.
And these idiot MEN who insist on defining a woman should STFU and let them define themselves.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
What a massive projection your comment is!! Conservatives didn't start the perversions; didn't force alternate sexualities down peoples' throats with a long-handled shovels, instigate sexual grooming of children by discussing sex with them. The whole sordid movement is sending our nations downhill in a spiral.
The Left grows more dangerous and perverse by the week, thinking they can take the rights of parents away. Who in hell do they think they are? (Grandmother of 4 here, with another on the way). The Thought Police are out in force and I'm afraid it's going to take drastic action to stop this decadent rot. I handed out how-to-vote cards at our last general election, standing side-by-side with working class Labor voters. Good and decent people of a conservative orientation and all expressed disgust and anger about Woke issues and the Left riding roughshod over their kids' morality. Our Labor government got a threadbare 32.5% of the primary vote - their lowest in many decades - and from that they think they're entitled to continue with radical identity politics.

Nobody wants to 'persecute' gays or any of the alphabet people and their sexual dysfunctions. (I hasten to add I do not add homosexuality to the perversion.) These activists simply must confine all these fifty different genders and obscene obfuscation about a what a woman is to a small room and as far AWAY as far is possible from children.
But it's futile trying to convince selfish people who only care about themselves, whose tyres have been pumped up by activists and which has only made them MORE SAVAGE, vengeful and entitled. State education has to be avoided like the plague, at least in Australia.
If you don't think somebody like Ron DeSantis is going to be elected either this time or next then you've been inhaling fairy dust.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
First, you gleefully taunted Progressives by saying we didnt have a clue as to why we got Trump. Then we were told we were bound to get Sanctimonious, as if like Trump, DeSantis would inflict on us well-deserved punishment for our misdoings. Then Ron, the diminutive spittin' image of Xi Jinping, badly tanked in the G.O.P. tracking polls.
When a ultra-Right winger has to face facts instead of fabrications, even she can be forced to back off. Consequently, you watered down your taunt: Now we're slated to get "somebody like Ron". Your words, not mine. But enlighten us, Belle, just who might that be?
Incidentally, that phrase alternate sexualities is graceless. Shame on you for that one, just the latest of many such gaucheries.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
You are a loser, mate, so nobody can take you seriously except your fellow travellers. Nothing you ever say can be taken seriously since you stand for absolutely nothing. Just hatred of conservatives, rich people, those in the Catholic church who uphold tradition, men (toxic)...the list is long. I actually feel sorry for you, as what you have amply demonstrated is that you have nothing but the chip on your shoulder. There are hyper vigilant trolls like you on every site. Insecure and insignificant they usually are.
I'll defend decent people and their morals any day of the week without caring for a second what losers think. (Actually those last two words are oxymoronic.) But I wouldn't consider you a decent person for a mega-second. You gave that right away when you launched into vicious attacks on your own fellow Americans. Dreadful stuff indeed. You and your ilk have done enough damage to our democracies with your entitlement, grievance, hatred and covetous desires. (Shudder)

Ad homing again, Belle? Does this mean we are no longer friends?
Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
I don't think you have any. And I think we can all see why. Self-hatred does that to people.jserraglio wrote: ↑Thu Mar 30, 2023 5:36 amAd homing again, Belle? Does this mean we are no longer friends?
Haven't you got some film lists to be posting? And some books to be burning? This should keep you busy so that you don't see how empty your life is.
You talk like a poor person.

Quote o' the day: Ad homs are not arguments.
But back to the point you raised. Tell us, who is this "somebody like Ron" you say we will get our retribution from? Reveal her name.

Re: Matt Walsh drives a truck through cry-bully ideologies of the woke
Whatýa call this exchange? Non-engagement engagement?
So, now that you are re-engaged, can we return to the point you originally raised?
Tell us, dear Belle, who is this "somebody like Ron DeSantis" you say Progressives will get their retribution from? Is it a senator, a governor, a congressman, a former ambassador or a Cabinet secretary? Why the hush-hush? Are they a stealth candidate?
Or does this “somebody like Ron DeSantis” exist only as a handy vehicle for your taunts?
