I have to draw to your attention Kristen Stewart on the cover of Rolling Stone.
So essentially my theory, which I discussed by the way on backstage the other night, is that we are living in a matriarchy, obviously, and women are controlling a lot and pretending that they're suffering from men.
And this matriarchy tells women what to be, and it's always everything but just A woman, right?
You are either going to be really disgusting and spread your legs apart and sell yourself to everybody on OnlyFans, right?
That's like the hoe philosophy.
Or they're telling women that you should be like men.
Really, and this is what the entire purpose of this Rolling Stone article is.
It's to make Kristen Stewart look like she's so brave, because really, she's just acting like a dude.
So this is the actual photo of the cover, and they're going, oh my god, conservatives are outraged.
It's Kristen Stewart.
Here she is.
She's wearing a leather vest and nothing else but underwear.
And yes, you are looking at her with her hands in her crotch area.
Yeah.
I don't even know if that registers to you as sexy.
We're not outraged.
We're just fundamentally disgusted.
I just want to be clear.
No one's outraged.
We're just disgusted with this obvious ploy to rinse women of femininity, right?
And that's what this is about.
Oh, this is punk rock.
This is cool.
Rolling Stone exists to define culture for the upcoming group of people, for young people to go, oh my god, she's so cool.
She's so cool.
And here's some more photos I'm going to show you.
Here she is again in her underwear.
She's wearing just a Nike shirt.
She looks like a guy that's just in the gym, maybe getting ready for the game.
Here's another photo of her from the shoot, legs open, wearing a t-shirt that says, eat me, you know, just kind of looking very gender fluid, which is how she describes herself in this article.
And I just wanted to, since I think my audience is now very aware of this sort of propaganda, I hope that any person that listens to this podcast is They are now training their mind to recognize propaganda everywhere that they see it.
I'm going to read you some quotations from the article which was written to accompany this cover, which, by the way, I'm going to have to park aside the death of the English language.
The person who's writing this article can barely speak English.
The first sentence is, Kristen Stewart is strong as F. And I do not mean this metaphorically.
What?
How do you have a job?
Literally, how are you writing?
How is this your literal job to write?
Strong as F. Anyways, let's get to some quotations.
She leans toward me.
Just to be clear, it's written in first person, so he's writing about his experience meeting with Kristen Stewart, this non-writer.
She leans toward me, legs wide and elbows on her knees.
We'll figure something out, she says.
So, you already get this picture of her being a dude, right?
She leans forward, she's got her legs really wide, her elbows on her knees, and he just keeps talking about how she's drinking and she's super cool.
She takes a swig of beer and leans back into the sofa.
I never have felt like I have performed a femininity in order to reap its benefits in the way that felt like a lie, she continues.
I'm very fluid, and I've never felt like, oh wow, I was doing this lie for a long time in order to get jobs.
So, yeah, there you have it.
She's basically right there up front telling you, like, and he's trying to describe this, you know, she's embracing this masculinity.
She's fluid.
She's telling you that there's nothing wrong with not being feminine whatsoever because, as I said, this is the cultural conditioning that's happening right now.

They're also talking about, in the read, the purpose of this cover story is that she has a movie that's coming out, and she's playing somebody who she describes as dyke-y, right?
That's a word that, if I had said that myself from YouTube, and I wasn't a lesbian like Kristen Stewart is, they probably would have hit it, but I guess lesbians are embracing this word, and she says, It was really effing fun to be allowed to have the little, dykey sister be the main protagonist in a movie.
That's never the main character in a movie.
That's never the one that you want to eff.
I mean, that's the one some people do, but not the one that you are prescribed to want to eff.
Oh, so raunchy.
This is just such a classy interview.
And then it goes on and he's describing what's happening, just with him dealing with her.
And again, we're back to this beer narrative.
He writes, a few minutes later, she wanders off again.
She just keeps walking away from me, she narrates in my perspective, and returns from the biohazard fridge with two cores of lights.
You can have a beer if you want, she announces.
I'm going to have one.
Ooh, cool.
Oh, my God.
Now girls are going to look at this and be like, oh, it's so cool.
The dikey little sister is now the protagonist, which means they want, if this is what's coming down the pipeline in Hollywood, they want women to embrace this, this sort of protagonist role in their own life.
It's cool to be the dikey little sister, as she writes.
Swigging beer with your legs open and your hand in your crotch like a dude.
And we're supposed to perceive this as, oh my gosh, yay, women are finally free from the goal of having to be women.
Oh my gosh, no, this is not freedom.
This is enslavement.
This is cultural enslavement by telling women that every natural proclivity that they have is wrong.
By telling women that everything that shouts at them biologically, wanting to aspire to be beautiful, wanting to meet a prince in your life, wanting to get married and to have children, is wrong.
Which is so funny because at the same time they want to convince you that the patriarchy is all around us, that in order to escape the patriarchy you have to in many ways escape yourself.
And it's so evident that that just simply isn't the circumstance whatsoever because they routinely dismiss women and give them names for embracing a traditional lifestyle.
The only women in this society that are oppressed or are treated horribly by the media are the women that are actually happy.
Right?
And nothing about Kristen Stewart's life and anything that she put into this article reads to me as somebody that is happy and somebody that is secure.
It reads to me like someone who is trying very hard to continually be subversive.
And it's just simply not necessary.
So I hope that people recognize this, that these two extremes that we're constantly being told that women have to be, like, you have to be overtly sexy and constantly trying to get attention and being naked, or you have to just rinse yourself with femininity altogether and be a man.
And I am existing to tell women that, no, actually, just live your life, be normal, be traditional.
It is so cool to simply be normal.
Stop telling them that you have to abnormalize everything and
