I just want to say, how dare you corrupt the symbols of my trans and gay siblings while also having those very same symbols protected by people who are meant to eliminate us.
How dare you and how dare you even think about accepting an award for a place that you block off half of, therefore making it impossible for me to get around in this city.
Now, if you just laughed at that clip, you probably are going to hell.
No, I'm just kidding.
You're not going to hell.
You're probably just a normal person because if you're like me, you're asking, what the hell was that?
And what were they talking about?
Now, of course, I'm not talking crap on transgenders, disabled people, or black people, because that would be bigoted.
What I am talking about is the fact is what the hell is this person doing making being black, disabled, and transgender part of their identity?
I'll tell you what they were doing.
They were lobbying the city of Olympia, Washington on Transgender Remembrance Day.
Why?
Not because they needed more rights, not because there were any laws that were limiting their freedoms.
It was because they felt like the building in which the city council met wasn't inclusive enough because there were police present, I kid you not, and because there wasn't enough wheelchair accessibility.
Yes, these people, 0.6% of the population, are actually beginning to change the tides of our country and are pressuring, pushing, and successfully changing the way that we celebrate our liberties here.
Today, we're going to talk about how people like this have morphed our culture into a pandering, canceling, pitiful society that somehow bends to the weakest inside of our midst, limits the strength and the power that makes us great by first looking at how YouTube is going to move on a purge to destroy freedom of speech online on the biggest search engines and accesses to information across the public.
Then we're going to look at, of course, other fallen Western societies like Germany, where their prime minister literally said that in order to have a free society, you're going to have to limit freedoms.
The hell is she talking about?
We're also going to look at where we're all headed, of course, in solidarity with our good old comrades in Hong Kong who are understanding what true limitations of freedom of speech brings, as we're going to look at a captive who actually was put in jail just for criticizing a police officer, as well as our favorite hypocrite of the week, which we'll get into later.
All this and more coming up.
My name is Elijah Schaefer.
Welcome back to Slightly Offensive.
We hope you enjoy the show.
And we're back with more Insanity.
This week, freedom of speech is under attack and a purge is coming online.
But additionally, as well, there are already attacks happening all across the West, including, of course, in our favorite Eastern countries like China, which have no freedom of speech.
But before we get into that, I want to let you know that I need your help to continue to get these videos out to people as YouTube has hit our channel as borderline content.
So our videos never get suggested to people anymore.
Please make sure that you click the subscription button below, turn on the notification bell always, and also check out the links to look at our audio podcast, which you can download as well, which really helps us give us a five-star rating.
Anyway, we're going to talk about this and we're going to get into this.
This is absolutely crazy.
First of all, let's talk about this.
What is hate speech?
Well, I'll tell you this.
Hate speech, of course, is defined on Google.
A search engine, which we can't really trust since they artificially inflate search results that they want to push their own narrative, by the way, has said that hate speech is any sort of criticism against people based on their protected class, such as sexual orientation, religion, race, ethnicity, etc.
Now, what's interesting, of course, is when we talk about hate speech and the lack of criticism of protected classes, I want to let you know there's always an exception to this rule.
You are allowed to criticize white people in a racist way.
You can criticize Christians in an obligatory, offensive way.
You can attack Jesus Christ.
You can attack straightness as bigotry.
And, of course, you can attack men as being evil.
So, when we talk about protected classes, we're not talking about a holistic argument here about there's certain things that people say are hateful to say.
It's just that there's certain groups that you're allowed to hate and certain groups you're not allowed to hate.
And they've decided the rules.
And, of course, the majority of this country, which are Christians and white, and honestly, a lot of males in this country, about half of the country, you can attack.
Why?
Because it's not about having a freedom of speech or limiting it.
It's about gaining power for the left.
And we're going to get into how they're doing that online before they can move and change the government, how governments are doing it, and of course, how governments are already doing it in places like China.
But first, I want to give a word from our sponsors.
So something really crazy happens when I'm at home.
I don't know about you, but like I get, I get out of control.
I watch stories.
I laugh at people like those transgenders petitioning the city and basically saying that they don't respect their Transgender Remembrance Day because there's not wheelchair access.
I laugh, right?
Sometimes I'm holding a glass of wine, whatever.
Maybe you just have grape juice.
I don't know.
But I spill my couch.
On top of that, I have guests over all the time.
We have heated discussions.
Things get everywhere.
And I spill my clothes.
And I always wonder, well, how do I fix my material?
How do I actually get it back to work the way that it's supposed to?
Well, there's this amazing product that actually I have.
It's called Genesis 950.
And this Genesis 950 product is not only amazing, but it actually, combined with water, breaks apart odor and stain molecules in all types of surfaces.
So whether it's wine or whether it's even like animal residue, pet residue, whether it's your friends, your kids, you spray this on anything.
I think I actually have it right here.
This is this awesome stuff in this bottle.
And it just restores it back to new.
And you can get it on Amazon.
But if you go right now and use the link below, you are going to be able to get a free spray bottle as well as free shipping.
It is an amazing product.
You don't want to do that.
It's really cheap, by the way, but it lasts forever and it helps restore all of your products back to new.
So whether you have materials and surfaces that need to come and be restored, get it.
Check it out in the links below.
We hope you enjoy the rest of the show.
All right, so let's get into our first segment today on the limitation of free speech.
And that's our famous idea of daddy YouTube.
And some people wonder why we call it daddy YouTube.
That's because YouTube likes to whip us and likes to restrict our freedoms.
Now, what's really crazy about this next segment is that YouTube, being, by the way, the second largest search engine in the world and one of the greatest accesses to new information, which is why I care so much about it.
People say, why do you care about YouTube?
Why don't you create your own platform?
Well, YouTube currently gives out access to about 1.9 billion people a year.
And they realize that that power and that access is important because if they move and bend information correctly, they can change the course of an entire country and inface a course of an entire world.
And that course isn't for the better of humanity.
It's to push the socially Marxist agenda to put us all under a totalitarian liberal society where you have no rights, liberties, gender is androgynous.
And of course, what?
You as a conservative are literally a Nazi.
And yes, I probably can't even say that word and we have to bleep it out because YouTube will take our video down.
I want to bring you to a first video clip which goes into this new purge that YouTube is beginning to dive into, which is because the government of the United States won't limit your free speech in the ways back in the 2010s and before in these historic landmark decisions where we have found that the Supreme Court said, you know what, there's no such thing as hate speech.
We can't limit freedom of speech.
These things cannot happen.
We live in a free society.
You know, leave it up to great liberal companies to go, you know what?
Actually, we're glad the Supreme Court decided something according to the Bill of Rights, which by the way only was basically written a couple years after the Constitution.
But we're going to put our own laws into place and we are going to find a way to limit information to the people based off of things that don't fit into our agenda.
Watch this clip on 60 Minutes and let me know what you think.

The struggle for Wajiski is policing the site while keeping YouTube an open platform.
You can go too far and that can become censorship.
And so we have been working really hard to figure out what's the right way to balance responsibility with freedom of speech.
But the private sector is not legally beholden to the First Amendment.
You're not operating under some freedom of speech mandate.
You get to pick.
We do, but we think there's a lot of benefit from being able to hear from groups and underrepresented groups that otherwise we never would have heard from.
With name-calling of Nazi or propagandists.
But that means hearing from people with odious messages about gays.
and immigrants the easiest way for mexicans to not get shot and killed in walmart logiski explained that videos are allowed as long as they don't cause harm but But her definition of harm can seem narrow.
So if you're saying don't hire somebody because of their race, that's discrimination.
And so that would be an example of something that would be a violation against our palsies.
But if you just said white people are superior by itself, that's okay.
And nothing else, yes.
But that is harmful in that it gives white extremists a platform to indoctrinate.
So what happened here is basically this CEO who is worth about $500 million and is connected to Google, whose family is prolific, has joined an elite class of people who have decided that they need to police their website not based off of whether material is actually offensive, whether it is genuinely obligatory and absolutely disgusting, but whether or not it just isn't nice.
And they don't want you as an individual to consume information that you're curious about, that you want to know.
They want you to consume information that helps shape your mind into the worldview that they want, which of course is what?
It's opposite to the freedoms that we fought for in our country.
And of course, they aren't mandated by any law since they're a private company operating under certain laws.
Now, people say, of course, why are you criticizing a private company?
Well, I'll tell you this.
This private company has more power and control and influence, being Alphabet, the parent company of Google, than does the entire United States government.
And I'll explain to this.
What Google is doing in YouTube realizes that most teens who were surveyed said that they find new information in music through YouTube.
So by taking to YouTube and by limiting the way that young people specifically, especially also new users, access information like this show, they are then able to change the way that people think in the society and the ideas that are spread, which then gives them an unfair advantage to push liberal ideas on stations like Vox and Fight Vice and AJ Plus, which by the way is a subsidiary of Al Jazeera, which is funded by the Qatari government, which kills homosexuals, by the way.
So these liberal companies, of course, they don't care about freedom and expression in other countries, but they do in our country.
That being said, YouTube and Google also limit freedom of speech in China and already bow down to the companies that are there and the government.
And basically, they've already proven themselves to be enemies of liberty.
But what they're doing in the United States is something egregious.
They are beginning to attack the freedom of expression.
And I'll explain this.
So what they did in that video is they showed a couple people in a clip, right?
You saw Lauren Southern, you saw Stephen Crowder, you saw Nick Jay Fuentes.
These are all people that would be considered firebrands on the right.
Now, of course, Lauren Southern mostly makes documentaries.
Now, Steven Crowder is more of a mainstream conservative, and Nicholas J. Fuentes, I would say, is considered more fringe, though I know he claims that he's heavily misunderstood, and let's just give him the benefit of the doubt.
Though I think he's a little bit too far out there for someone like myself, people do like him.
Anyway, what happens is just recently, YouTube began this crackdown on this purge of conservative voices.
And what they have done is they have grouped us all together in one lump sum.
So whether or not you're saying Hitler was good or if you're saying something like Hitler was bad, as long as you both voted for Trump, they consider you to be just as bad as each other.
And they said in that video that they've hired basically experts to understand and figure out supremacy and hate speech, which, by the way, only entails white supremacy and extreme right ideas, not extreme left ideas, which are just as damaging, I might even say more, to the social fabric of our country.
Now, I condemn the fringe and extreme right-wing ideas as being toxic for our nation as well.
But when you're going to begin to limit the freedom of speech on one spectrum and not the other, now you're not actually combating extremism or ideas.
You're simply just limiting speech of certain ideas that you don't like, which of course is not only inconsistent, but it's hypocritical.
And so what we're going to see here in this next clip, of course, is where the CEO explains how they decide what kind of content can actually be displayed or shown on the website.
And you're going to find, of course, the focus is on right-wing fascist extremists and not all this weird sit crap like child drag queens that are sexually perverting our children and promoting pedophilia in our culture.

Susan Mojewski showed us two examples of how hard it is to determine what's too hateful or violent to stay on the site.
So this is a really hard video to watch.
And as you can see, these are prisoners in Syria.
So you could look at it and say, well, should this be removed?
Because it shows violence, it's graphic, but it's actually uploaded by a group that is trying to expose the violence.
So she left it up.
Then she showed us this World War II video.
I mean, it's totally historical footage that you would see on the history channel, but she took it down.
Why?
There is this word down here that you'll see, 1418.
1418 is code used by white supremacists to identify one another.
For every area, we work with experts and we know all the hand signals, the messaging, the flags, the songs.
And so there's quite a lot of context that goes into every single video to be able to understand what are they really trying to say with this video.
So what they're saying here is that they have experts on hand who can decipher what material should be on the website, which is fine.
I'm okay with that.
But just recently, they've kind of expressed what kind of material is too far fringe by deleting someone named Owen Benjamin.
Now, Owen Benjamin, in my opinion, is not somebody that I personally ascribe to.
He's a great comedian.
He has made a lot of incredible videos.
I think he fell off the deep end.
He rants too much about Israel and the Jews.
You can criticize the Jews.
I don't care.
But, you know, when you get obsessive in your behavior, it's pretty alarming, sometimes to me at least.
And he got really obsessive and he started ranting, saying a lot of things that YouTube didn't like, so they deleted him.
But what they've done now is YouTube has a problem with two major voices, and that's Nick Fuentes and Owen Benjamin.
And I know that Nick is afraid of being deleted.
I'm against deplatforming anyone, by the way.
I don't believe it's right to deplatform ideas.
I think it's foolish.
I think it breeds extremism.
I'm not saying that any of these people are extremists.
Just saying that I don't think that deplatforming people you don't like is a wise idea because it leads to ideas having to circulate in darkness, which allows fringe and extreme people to basically breed in the darkness.
And I just don't think that's the right thing to do.
But YouTube thinks that people that are extreme or fringe should be deleted.
So what they've done is, I believe the next person on their target is probably Nick.
People are actively working like the ADL and different groups to de-platform people that they don't like, which of course I think is toxic, but they're working on it.
And it's been open on Nick Jay Fuentes' Twitter.
They're trying to de-platform him.
What they've done in this video is they say, well, Steven Crowder is the same thing as Nick Fuentes.
And then they go, Nick Fuentes is the same thing as Owen Benjamin.
And so they de-platform Owen Benjamin, who, yes, I get they don't like his rhetoric, shouldn't have been deplatformed.
And then they go, well, who's next?
Then they hit Nick and they delete him.
And then they go, well, who's next?
Okay, well, there was a 60-minute interview that said that Crowder, of course, was the same thing as Nick Jay Fuentes.
And then they deplatform Crowder, even though he's more mainstream and holds on to ideas that probably Nick doesn't agree with, including his support for Israel.
Now, what's absolutely insane in all this is that by lumping people together, they are deciding that right-wing ideas, whether they're extreme or fringe, all the way to the mainstream, are the exact same equal opportunity, and they should be limited.
Which means that what was once considered normal conservative ideas is now considered to be hate speech.
And if you think your ideas aren't fringe or extreme, they one day will be, which is why we need to stand against the deplatforming of people that even are considered fringe or extreme, even if their ideas are bad and you vehemently disagree with them, because we should not be deplatforming people because then the bar gets lowered and we keep taking more and more people out.
Just to put this into perspective, of course, YouTube is doing so much to limit our reach as a channel that we get comments like these.
You know, some of the comments that we get all the time are people always telling us how they don't have access to our videos, they don't have access to our content, and that's completely fine.
And you see some of these things on the screen right now.
People telling us, hey, I can't see your videos.
Hey, I can't subscribe to you anymore.
Hey, I'm getting unsubscribed.
And YouTube knows this.
They don't care.
And the stats have shown sometimes around midnight, I'll lose 300, 400, 500 subscribers.
Just last night, a video between 1205 and 1206 lost 10,000 views.
They just delete them.
How do they delete them?
I don't know what they do because they don't want your reach to continue.
But it's not just, of course, YouTube and online people that are limiting our speech and are moving towards a purge.
But of course, we found this recent article from Angela Merkel on this segment called The West has fallen.
And the West has fallen.
Indeed, it really has because what are considered free societies aren't free.
And if you don't know this, actually, Angela Merkel, the prime minister of Germany, or chancellor, I should say, I don't know if it's a prime minister, chancellor, began to explain this.
Now, there's this article from Daily Wire that says, Merkel, speaking at an event for the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce in Berlin, stumbled up the stairs before taking the podium and suggesting the government ban speech she considers extreme and decrying freedom of expression.
She's quoted saying that we have freedom of expression in our country, Merkel said.
And for all those who claim that they know, can no longer express their opinion, I say this to them.
If you express a pronounced opinion, you must live with the fact that you will be contradicted.
Expressing an opinion does not come at zero cost.
But freedom of expression has its limits, she continued.
Those limits begin where hatred is spread.
They begin where the dignity of other people is violated.
The House will and must oppose extreme speech.
Otherwise, our society will no longer be a free society that it was.
Okay, so Germany hasn't actually really been a free society.
I don't know if you remember World War I, World War II.
This sounds a lot like the Third Reich here.
Angela Merkel is mirroring ideas that sound a lot like what Adolf Hitler actually spoke about, which was this idea of limiting people's rights in order for the state to gain control to have a better society.
He did this also by limiting the rights of the Jews as well as other groups.
But why would I get into that?
Because of course, Angela Merkel knows better.
Now, we know that she actually limited people's freedom of speech in the country, not to protect anyone, but because there were hyper-criticisms of her immigration policy, which, after letting a million or so immigrants in from Syria, there was an increase in rape and certain crimes and homelessness in the country.
And of course, Angela Merkel didn't like the criticism of her opponents.
So instead of fighting against their facts and their criticisms, she decided to make their speech illegal, which is the ultimate ploy of the left.
They want a society to have limits.
Why?
So that they can gain power and say that people that are mean are not actually in the legal right to say things.
The problem is that the truth and the speech that we say is oftentimes rude because the truth hurts and it's difficult to digest.
But leaders like Angela Merkel, people like Nancy Pelosi, Alexandria Casio-Cortez, Mrs. Presley, and other people of the gang, including, of course, Ilhan Omar, don't want you to challenge their ideas because their ideas will lose on the debate floor.
So of course, what do they do?
They limit your freedom of speech.
Now, Germany, England, these are all places that have laws against freedoms.
But of course, the United States has stood against these laws, but it doesn't matter.
So Angela Merkel, of course, is part of our person of the West who's fallen this week.
But before I get anything else, I want you to know, you know, it's not just our country where things have fallen.
I mean, almost daily we hear stories of terrifying assaults on campuses, students getting their booths torn apart and beaten and hit.
I myself have been attacked many times on college campuses at protests, and we know that there's an assault altogether on freedom of speech.
But of course, since we've determined by law that there's no laws against freedom of speech that we can really put out there, and on a bigger scale, we know that companies are trying to fight against freedom of speech by putting limits on it and calling it hate speech.
We realize that they are trying to attack people on the right.
And so what happened is Dennis Preger, who also is one of the founders of PragerU, and also Adam Krollo, the podcaster, came together and made this awesome video called No Safe Spaces that includes incredible guests like Ben Shapiro and Coulter Jordan Peterson.
It airs this weekend, of course, in theaters, hundreds of theaters across America.
And it covers this very topic.
So if you're more interested in this idea of freedom of speech and what's going on and you want to see what's really happening in our country and the fight that's going on, I really encourage you to check out this movie.
Go to no safe spaces.com and just watch what an amazing film.
There was a screening at a recent conference that I was at.
Amazing film.
Remarkable, phenomenal.
And just shows you the evil people that are at hand.
Anyway, I want to jump back into this again.
That's no safe spaces.com.
But you know what?
It's not just the online companies, and it's also not the West that is doing this.
Where we're headed can be seen right now in China in this amazing segment that's going to reoccur.
It's just called Communism Sucks.
Okay, communism sucks.
Communism sucks.
Why?
Because it takes away the rights of the people for the rights of the collective.
And we know that democracies don't win because people are fickle.
They often don't know what they want and it leads to corruption of a ruling class.
But of course, we have this terrifying video, which I want to let you know.
We'll play a quick clip of it, but it is a Chinese man in a cage being interrogated by investigators in China.
Why?
Because he criticized the traffic police.
Viewer discretion is advised.
So that small clip, it was in Chinese, you probably couldn't hear what was going on, they're basically asking him while putting him in an animal cage, why did you criticize the police?
So, what happens in places like China is if you criticize the government, you know, in Syria, you used to disappear.
In a lot of countries, you disappear.
But if it's a minor offense, not like a political uprising or a rebellion, you will actually be chained and they will take away your rights.
Actually, they have a social credit system in China that limits people's rights to things like airplanes and bus tickets and proper supplies, et cetera, and the internet simply because they don't behave the way the country and the state wants them to behave, which is absolutely terrifying.
I damn do not want to live in a country that tries to control the way that I feel, think, and understand.
But we'll get into that.
And of course, this is absolutely something that is ridiculous.
But of course, communism sucks because it takes away the individual freedom.
And that's the liberty that we so love in this country, is the liberty that makes our country great.
It's what gives us that freedom of expression to share what we want, sometimes things that are uncomfortable.
But we know that in the West, you know, they use the internet, they use the pressure of the government, and they still can't get away with limiting our rights.
They get these pawns and these people that propagandize our children and try to get them to be afraid of the future so that they look to the state for solutions.
And there's this push away from individual liberty into this state-controlled society where they find problems that are bigger than the individual and tell you things that you'll never understand that scientists and people greater than you have made conclusive and consensus ideas upon.
And they try to limit your freedom of speech.
And I'll tell you how.
Like, for instance, climate change.
Climate change, I'm not going to get into this too much, is something led right now by a figurehead named Greta Thunberg, who is a teenager with autism, depression, and other forms of disabilities.
Now, I wouldn't make fun of a teenager.
Why?
I want you to see this clip right here from a recent protest I was at.
You can find the link to the whole video below and see how sensitive people get about this girl.
The crowd cheers for me.
The crowd's cheering for me.
They said that Greta Thunberg was the best.
The thing is, what they don't realize is that Greta Thunberg is not as good as Thretta Gunberg.
But anyway, I can't say that on TV because why would I mock a kid?
She's a kid.
Plus, the woman said we all have autism, which I don't agree with.
But I guess that's what the left thinks.
They all have autism.
I didn't say it.
She did.
Let it ring.
But putting this out of perspective, we saw this picture of Greta and her mom, and I don't want to attack them too much.
But when you look at the furniture, look at this nice seat that's behind her and around her.
This is a fantastic seat.
It's a nice seat.
It's beautiful.
But look at the prices.
We looked back, looked, and searched up the prices, and they were actually pretty damn expensive, which shows you that it pays to give in to the social construct of what the left is trying to do.
If you fight for climate change, if you fight against free speech, if you fight for abortion, if you fight for the wrong things and against the right things, they will reward you.
And it's clear.
You will get fame.
You will get progress.
You will get notoriety.
You will have a lot of money and wealth beyond money.
You will have respect and you will obviously go down in history.
Why?
Because you joined the militant army that is seeking to destroy the framework of individual liberty for the sake of the collective globalist good, which of course is neo-Marxism in a greater scale.
And of course, while I'm not attacking people for owning nice furniture, I'm just saying for people who care a lot about the environment and the world, it seems funny to own a 10,000 Euro chair.
The hell is wrong with these people?
They're hypocrites when it comes to their personal life because of course, it's always wrong for thee, but not for me.
