Matt Walsh is a right winger in media, and so you're not gonna be surprised to find
out that he neither understands nor acknowledges climate change,
that's pretty stock at this point, but he goes way beyond that in his ignorance and
his misinformation, take a look at what he decided to tweet recently,
remember when they spent years telling us to panic over the hole in the ozone layer,
and then suddenly just stop talking about it, and
nobody ever mentioned the ozone layer again.
That's not it though.
This was also back during the time when they scared school Children
into believing that acid rain was a real and urgent threat.
Now look, is it possible that we live in a world where matt Walsh is
genuinely dumb enough to not have any idea about how stupid those tweets are.
I will acknowledge that we might live in that world.
He seems pretty enthusiastically ignorant.
I think a more likely explanation though, is that he really thinks his fans
are ignorant, and he likes it and wants them to stay that way.
And so he is being paid by millionaires and billionaires to openly lie
by cosplaying comic con style as the dumbest man to ever live.
He might be the dumbest man to ever live, but I'm going to extend him the credit,
I'm gonna do an olive branch and assume that he's just grifting that he's this
stupid, I think that matt Walsh somehow manages to maintain the title of creepiest
person at Daily Wire, and his competition is pretty stiff.
I mean, you've got Ben Shapiro and Michael Knowles who
looks like if a magician was also a sex predator and
still somehow and still somehow matt Walsh is taking the cake.
I'm sorry. He's the way that he has engaged with
trans people online is and through his documentary,
one of the most disgusting things I've seen promoted recently.
And he also loves to promote his disgusting transphobic movie documentary
on our videos, on all of our videos, which is just showing how much money they have
to throw away because you're literally targeting an audience that will
never watch your movie instead of spending your money, allocating your resources to
promoting your movie to trans folks who will watch it.
But I digress.
He sucks basically.
The entire political strategy of the right right now is to stimulate a new satanic
panic, getting people fired up to attack the trans community.
And increasingly, just to generalize LGBTQ community as well.
Last year, it seemed like the right realized that socially they had to focus
their attacks on the trans community.
That was the group that America's decided you can still openly attack and
fear monger about.
But it really has widened and now pretty much the entire spectrum is once again
being openly attacked both in comments made by right wing pundits and elected
officials as well as legislation that's passing and there really is no end to this
because would you believe they're coming for the Trevor project, which is literally
a group that believes that there is too much suicide amongst you know, kids,
teens, young people in these communities and wants to stop that from happening.
That's who's now being targeted.
I want to show you a few examples of this.
So it's to some extent, appears to have started or at least received a lot of fuel
being thrown on the fire by this guy Colin Wright, who's a blogger who says his whole
life is dedicated to combating gender ideology information.
Anyway, he tweeted the Trevor Project, a nonprofit LGBTQ advocacy organization,
provides a way for Children to chat with their counselors.
That includes a quick exit feature that automatically quits and erases your
browser history to keep parents in the dark, that is then going to be spread as
evidence that the counselors of the Trevor project which again, are trying to people
from killing themselves are secretly grooming, they're having sexual
conversations with these young people in an attempt to have sex with them.
And that is why they want the chat to be immediately dissolved.
Now, if you are a complete ignorant, a whole, almost almost full on swear there,
then maybe you can believe this and
you can think that the group like the Trevor project, there might be no other
reason why someone would want to quickly erase the conversation.
If you don't spend even two or three contiguous seconds thinking about what
those conversations are about and what is likely to be talked about there and
what the consequences might be for some if they're unsupportive parents see
those conversations there were not two or three seconds.
Not for that guy, Colin not for all of those who will now run with this including
by the way, the Moms for Liberty, which is a group that claims
to have 85,000 members with chapters in over 35 states.
They then spread.
Why is the Trevor project encouraging Children to keep secrets from
their parents?
I don't know.
Because sometimes those parents aren't supportive, sometimes they throw
the kids out, sometimes they beat them, Sometimes they kill them.
That is a thing that happens.
And the Trevor project is trying to stop that from happening.
But Moms for Liberty doesn't care about that.
Michael Knowles, a guy who hasn't gone like 30 minutes over the last four years
without thinking or talking about the trans community and
never along the way has felt the need to even meet a member of the community trying
to learn about the experience or anything like that.
He's talking about how the Trevor project is sort of like a front for
a pharmaceutical company that wants to drug kids for
sex reassignment surgery or something.
I don't know what he means but neither does he.
He doesn't have to he doesn't have to present an actual argument,
he's gonna get paid either way.
So there's more on this bret but they're they're trying to get people to attack
a group that literally just tries to lower the number of suicides.
>> They're not pro life.
Therefore death.
If you're against a suicide prevention hotline, you're not pro life.
That's it.
And also I love people who make my point for me, my point is for
people who are struggling.
They need someone to help them and especially the person least equipped
to help them is the person who's the reason why they're struggling.
And so this is people who are the reason folks are struggling trying to
get rid of the one lifeline that they can have and that mom for liberty is not for
actual liberty because they won't let the kid be free to be who they are.
And it's this crazy notion that they have that they can parent gay out of people.
Which is absolutely false.
Almost as false as the notion that being gay.
Is it all wrong?
Mhm.
This is just convenient to them.
They don't care about the consequences.
They want to make sure the taxes stay low and
if along the way you gotta break some eggs and the eggs are a couple more LGBTQ teens
that commit suicide whatever that is what they're doing here when host and whatever.
I don't know do they consider themselves activists?
I don't even know Lauren Chen tweets.
Left wing activists are predatory groomers.
If you sit around designing and promoting ways to get in touch with kids,
you can discuss sexuality and keep it from their parents.
You're a groomer period full stop.
Well, no, the only thing that had full stop was your thoughts.
You didn't think about this at all.
She doesn't know what the group does.
She certainly doesn't care what the group does.
These counselors are trying to stop the kids from killing themselves for
you to then present them as trying to commit acts
of pedophilia is it should be unimaginably disgusting.
But it's been so normalized when Elon Musk called the guy who saved those kids in
the cave pedo guy remember that everybody agreed that was weird.
It's only been a couple of years and now it's the most normal thing in the world,
you just make these claims.
You don't know anything you don't think as a quick aside by the way these people are,
they have a couple of things in common.
They are absolutely obsessed with this community despite having no knowledge
about it, no compassion for anything like that.
And the interesting thing is too, I haven't necessarily worked with a lot of
these people but I have done panels with both Michael Knowles and Lauren Chen and
I will tell you that Michael Knowles behind closed doors.
I keep telling you in the green room randomly was bringing up the trans
community is super weird in both cases.
Once we got an air, they were Mika's kittens like they were so nice.
It's all the anonymity you can tweet hateful nonsense that will get people
killed.
But when you're actually having to sit down next to someone who's gonna be
a vigorous defender of compassion and empathy,
they were the most agreeable people in the world.
I was on a panel Lauren Chen, I wouldn't even come away thinking she was
conservative after it, but when they get online, when they're on twitter and
all of a sudden there big lions there are roaring their hate.
It's ridiculous.
