Welcome to the final podcast of the Low Seaters for 2025.
I'm joined by Harry and Dan and today we're going to be revisiting the lost generation of men because you were ill when this was sort of hit.
And you have things to say.
And so we're going to discuss it.
And then we're going to go on to talk about the consequences of this in women on TikTok realizing, hang on, we've killed chivalry.
And actually, this wasn't as fun as we thought it was going to be.
And then we are going to be pushing the mind up the hill Sisyphian style by trying to teach Femi the meaning of per capita for Christmas.
And it does also tie into the other stuff.
It'll come nice and full circle because I think part of this may be Femi feigning ignorance so that he can support the government initiative to long house children in school.
The Millennial Woes tweet strikes again.
No, I'm going to be generous and charitable towards Femi and assume he's just an idiot.
Interesting tactic.
Difficult to know, isn't it?
Anyway, let's get on there.
So I wanted to talk about this article, The Lost Generation by Jacob Savage, which had a bit of cut through.
Lots of people were talking about it.
I think it even went to the vice president's desk and he tweeted about it.
The only thing that annoyed me is I've seen lots of commentary on it and there seems to be a lot of missing the point.
There's a lot of accepting the arguments more or less at face value.
And actually the more interesting article is the one between the lines, the one that he didn't quite cover.
So I wanted to get into it and discuss what the author misses on this and what a lot of people have been missing on this.
So anyway, here's the article.
Quite a long article.
Goes through basically the story of a left-wing millennial man who is trying to make it in left-wing industries and finding that the door is firmly slammed on his face.
So I'm not going to revisit the article too much.
I'll just read you a couple of passages from it, just in case you haven't seen it and don't know what it's all about.
But so it starts off with a personal story.
And the author says, for 15 years, I've scalped tickets to pay the bills.
But in January 2016, I almost managed a real career.
But of course, by 2016, we were already too late.
In 2011, the year I moved to Los Angeles, white men were 48% of lower TV writers.
By 2024, they accounted for just 12%.
In retrospect, 2014 was the hinge, the year that DEI became institutionalized across America.
And this is a consistent theme for him.
Basically, he thinks that in 2014, most of the Gen X's were now 40, and they could pull up the ladder behind them.
That's essentially the argument that he's making.
It's something that I've seen other American commenters echo as well, that 2014 is when everything ramped up.
And I need to look into it, but I think one of the things they attribute it to is Obama's second term.
He doesn't need to worry about re-election.
He can go through all of his policy aims that he wanted from the beginning.
And so he pushes through a load of affirmative action policy.
I don't mind the ramping up bit.
Hang on a second.
It's not just that.
There was the cultural zeitgeist, which was essentially the wave of feminism.
This swept across almost every industry.
This is when...
I mean, it's certainly been building up to that point.
But one thing that some commenters have said is that it was massively helped and pushed along legislatively.
Yeah, yeah, of course.
And it would have been funded by Obama as well.
It would have been funded by Obama's state.
But this was a genuine cultural phenomenon that was happening all across the West.
I mean, this is why I ended up starting a YouTube channel to talk about it, right?
This was everywhere, and it was growing in prominence up until about 2014, where it had the tipping point where it was just mainstream.
And this was completely normal.
So I don't mind talking about it as, you know, perhaps an acceleration, but it's certainly wrong to think it started at that day.
Absolutely didn't start with.
I mean, I'll just read a couple of other very quick bits and then we get into the analysis.
The world is not rooting for you.
In fact, it's deliberately rooting against you.
Industry after industry gatekeepers promised extra consideration to anyone who wasn't a white man and then provided it just that.
And my favorite bit of the article, um story of Ethan.
Like so many middle-class millennials in the Obama era, Ethan believed that he was on the right side of history.
He had entered academia after an unsatisfying stint in the corporate world precisely because he was interested in issues of inequality.
He wanted to make the world a better place.
He says, I came in wide-eyed, bushy-tailed, but I felt like in early 2010 there was good reason to feel that way.
Society was moving in a direction that felt more fair.
Well, congratulations, Ethan.
You got what you wanted?
Well done.
Yeah, I pointed this out yesterday when I referenced it, and I read a bit of the story of Ethan as well.
And I said, well, sucks to be you.
This is literally what you asked for.
Well, you want to be, you want things to be equal?
Well, you need to step aside and let a poor, disadvantaged, oppressed person of colour take your job.
You know what?
This was a fairly common point that I would make in videos.
It's like, okay, well, then you have to resign.
Mr. CEO, who's like, oh, we need more diversity at the top.
It was never that, no.
But it was not that.
It was just, oh, okay, well, actually, the young guys who are going to come in after us, well, we're pulling the lad up for them and then giving it to someone else.
Yeah, quite so.
So I wouldn't normally do this, but I'm just, sorry, it's Christmas.
I'm just going to go ahead and share my notes.
Can you give us the next tab, Samson?
My box isn't working.
There we go.
So I'm just going to stick my notes because there's quite a lot on here.
And we've only got 20 minutes, but what we do is we can pick out what we want to pick out and talk to it.
And maybe I'll do a brokenomics if I don't cover as much as I want.
So apparently, my notes, the first thing I need to do is mention what Cohort Magazine is.
It's not a right-wing magazine.
It's a left-wing magazine.
Compact magazine.
Is it compact?
It's compact.
Oh, it's compact.
Okay, compact magazine.
It's one of those I didn't leave the left, the left left me magazines.
And I did watch an interview with the author and an editor, and they were very keen, and they spent actually most of their time on this, stressing their left-wing credentials.
So it was all, oh, of course, I voted for Obama twice, and I would have, I wish I could have voted for him three times.
It would have been brilliant if he had just run forever.
Interspurs with, of course, I hate Donald Trump and he's a king.
He's not going to leave office because he's a fascist.
He's complaining about gatekeeping, but in that, he is also at the same time gatekeeping this kind of discourse.
You're only allowed to have legitimate discourse that's pumped by the vice president if you also hold these views.
And he makes a point over and over again in the article when I read the whole thing to be like, of course, well, I don't blame any of these people who stole opportunities that weren't actually.
You actually can.
And also, he doesn't point out, oh, you know, like one of the first statistics he gives is 2011, lower-level writers in Hollywood were 48 to 49% white males.
Now, in 2024, 25, it's less than 12% white males.
Well, can you also, in that case, point out that there's been a massive drop in quality in every written television show that I've seen, except for the ones that had like legacy writers' rooms that were brought over by showrunners.
And that all of a sudden, every show that now isn't explicitly written by white men is about how much it hates white men.
Are you not going to point any of that out?
Are you just going to dodge that conversation?
100%.
I'll quickly restate what the author thinks the point that he's making.
The author thinks that it's basically the story of white male millennials against older white men.
So it's against Gen X's and it's against boomers.
And he thinks that the timing matters rather than his perspective of the timing.
And he thinks that it's a material gatekeeping system and it's not symbolic of the wider left movement, all that kind of stuff.
So that's what he thinks happened.
And then I've got eight themes which we can talk about.
Unfortunately, I can only get one on the screen at the time.
So, my first point is: if he thinks that, you know, you could read this article and then come to the view, oh my God, I already hated boomers, but now I hate Gen X now.
Yeah, kind of based.
Well, you would say that because you were Zoomer, but he's a lenny.
It's not the first generation to ever exist.
It's not a Gen X problem or even a boomer problem.
It's a leftist problem.
So, look, if you were a conservative trying to get into the BBC in the 1990s, you would have got the same treatment.
If you were even a younger boomer trying to get into academia in whatever, the 80s, you would have had the same problem.
What he's actually noticing is because he's looking at prestige, very left-wing institutions, things like academia and TV writing and journalism, stuff like that.
It looks like that it all happened in 2014.
No, what actually happened is that's when they ran out of conservatives to purge.
Not just that as well.
There was a general sort of infiltration of intersectionality through the institutions, and it was in 2014 where the floodgates kind of broke and they were like, oh, yeah, no, we are all actually in favor of all of this.
And so, the sort of long march of the communists as opposed to covert, but it was absolutely happening before.
Yeah, it was all the way back to the 60s.
It's when they look around in those writers' rooms and they realize, hold up, nobody in here disagrees with us anymore.
We've got rid of the last opposing voice, so we don't have to hold back.
And it's after that you start seeing all of these Netflix programs like dear white people pop up.
Yeah.
But I mean, put it this way: I mean, I so personally didn't experience this, but then I was working in finance.
And I suspect if you try and join finance today, it would be an issue, but it wasn't when I was doing it.
that's true but i mean you're there is this in 2012 Exactly.
That's what I was going to say.
You're also a Gen Xer.
You're like two weeks older than I am.
And you have experienced the long housing and all the rest of it.
Well, I applied after university.
I was looking around for internships at the BBC, for instance.
And all of the ones that were available would always say we will show preference to candidates who are of black or minority back.
I mean, there are some what you're just not allowed to apply for them now.
Yeah.
But I mean, similarly, if you had been 20 years older and tried to join the BBC, they would have sat you down for an interview.
They would have sussed out that you're not a leftist.
And you wouldn't have got anywhere either.
So I think it's just lazy to say that it's, you know, the last Gen Xer got into its 40s and was established and then pulled up the ladder.
It's much more leftism always needs a new sacrificial victim.
I think what he's describing is true, but I think it's been more of a sort of water dropping on the rock, right?
So wearing it down.
So you are right.
There would have been an institutional bias, but I don't think it would have been impossible or even that difficult to get by as a conservative, even in these institutions.
But as Harry points out, I think over time, it's just the percentage has become lower and lower and lower because the institutional biases cut against the rights.
Well, but I mean, it has, as Harry says, that's because the institutional resistance was gone at that point.
Yeah, exactly.
It was a breakthrough moment because they had already purged all the conservatives.
Yeah, but it had been a slow decline of the rights.
Yeah.
The next thing I wanted to talk about is this aspect.
I think a lot of this is elite overproduction.
If you are going to send, like we do in this country, 50%, well, more than 50% at this point of everybody to university, you have a massive supply of elites.
So it's no longer competency, which is going to be your filter.
You are going to need a new bottleneck.
You're going to need a new filter mechanism.
And it can't be competency because everybody is declared competent.
Especially if, as well, those universities are set to the same targets that these other institutions are and have been had and have had them set for longer.
Like in America, there are cases going back to the 1970s where judges are declaring it right and lawful under the Civil Rights Act to discriminate against white candidates in favor of less qualified minority candidates for places and universities.
So you've got the elite overproduction, but also within that, they are overproducing less qualified minority candidates for these jobs because competency is no longer the mechanism that gets you through the door.
And so that filters through all of it.
But moreover, people with the qualifications are no longer rare.
Yes.
You've got the abundance of people who could get that job.
And so you actually have the luxury of saying, well, I mean, this guy got, say, a 2-1 or a 2-2, but that guy, you know, he's not white.
Therefore, we can hire him.
And he'll do all right.
Whereas there was a time where if you got through university, you were quite exceptional.
But I mean, those days are long gone at this point.
The next thing I was going to bring up is the wider sort of system scope on this.
So if we're giving up competency as the bottleneck and we're moving to some other criteria, the other thing I'd say is that the article makes it sound like this is rooted in left-wing industries because that's the only thing he's particularly aware of.
It's academia and it's journalism and all that kind of stuff.
Well, actually, no, I did a brokenomics with Mike from HR, I think we called him.
And he contacted me after I was talking about this on Twitter and said, oh, no, no, no.
All of this is happening in my industry.
His industry is pilots.
Oh, yes.
Concerning.
Yes, very concerning.
But it's not just that.
I mean, look at all the incompetent marketing failures of people like Jaguar, Yep.
Yes.
You know, all of these.
These are all part of the same cultural movement.
If there was a single white conservative man in that room, he would have been like, what the hell?
Yeah, what is this selling?
Yes.
And it wouldn't have gone through.
Exactly.
But this, this, like, as you say, he's very focused on institutionalized, sort of quasi-government left-wing institutions, right?
But all through the corporate world, this kind of wave flushed through, and you can see the results of it.
Yeah.
And the only thing is that I think that he gets wrong is the speed at which it moved through industries.
So let's say even today, if you're working as a roughneck on an oil rig or as a lumberjack or as a firefighter, you're probably not that affected by DEI, I would imagine.
I mean, I say that.
I'm probably going to get loads of comments.
No, I've seen a bunch of female firefighters and stuff like that.
Yeah, possibly.
I'm probably going to get a load of LAY saying, oh, no, it's the beginning of this.
Another DEI disaster.
Yeah.
But I guess what I'm driving at is the speed at which it rippled through these industries is a function of how it's like this inverse trade-off between how likely you are to get injured and whether you actually have to produce anything of value or not.
They're probably the ones at the very far end of the scope.
Yes.
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it's happening now.
But it is happening in critical industries.
You know, it is happening in, well, this guy was telling me, yeah, it happens in pilots.
And I mean, there was another thing that I was talking to him about as well.
It was the Green Party want to bring in legislation when they win.
Don't know if they will, but maybe they will.
They want to bring in legislation that basically makes it legal to mansplain.
They don't phrase it.
They've got that active in their own party, don't they?
Yes.
You're not allowed to correct a woman in the Green Party or something.
What an awful place.
What an awful party.
Can I be a fly on the wall in their meetings?
I just want to hear all of the batch, crazy ideas thrown out by women and all of the men just turning bright red as the, yep, of course, great idea.
Two thumbs up.
I mean, it's kind of funny when you're thinking about the Green Party.
It's less funny when it's brought into law and the 60-year-old pilot cannot mansplain to his 24-year-old pilot trainee.
Then it becomes a lot less funny.
The thing the other day where the woman pilot flipped the aeroplane over.
How did she even do that?
I don't know.
But it's literally the...
I mean, that's so incompetent, it's impressive.
Yeah, I mean, kind of.
If society is going to go down, it's going to crash and burn in the most spectacular fashion possible.
And I'm sure it's technically possible for a woman to be a good pilot.
Of course.
I'm just saying that if you hire people based on a criteria other than merit, you are going to get something other than competency as an output of your organisation.
So just to be clear on that, that was in February 17th, 2025, a Delta-operated Bombardier aircraft was operated by Endeavour Air and flipped upside down on Toronto Pearson International Airport.
And yes, it was an all-female crew.
An all-female crew.
All-female crew.
Right, girls working together did it.
Yeah.
Yeah, but I'm sure they were able to make some very snappy international decisions.
No, no, no.
There were a couple of men on the crew, but mostly serving food to people.
I don't know, but I'd have to look into a bit of a picture of the menu.
They might rush to get the kink down.
I think we can all agree that if you're sat on the plane right before it's about to take off and you hear from the pilot and you just hear, this is your pilot, Lashwaniqua, speaking, and she starts talking ghetto, I'm going to ask to get off the flight.
Well, this is why I'm such a fan of AI and robotics, because if Lashwaniqua is driving my plane, I want her to just get paid to press a button and do nothing else.
I will trust ChatGPT's capacity to fly a plane.
Yes.
Actually, top tip on this, the way that I get around it, because I mean, years ago, I stopped flying on particular models of aeroplane because they're just shitty planes.
I kind of was already going away from Boeing before it got popular.
Unfortunately, what you can't do is see a little profile of the pilot until you're on it and then you hear them come over and it's too late by then.
The workaround is if you're going anywhere that connects through Middle East, because they just hire white men pilots.
They're like, yeah, come here, get a job, pay 4% tax and work for us.
So just get anything that connects through the Middle East and then get a junction flight from there and you can probably get a safe pilot.
Weirdly, Iceland Air, because Iceland's quite small, it's all white male pilots.
That makes sense.
Iceland's one of those equal countries where they're so equal that the women just decide, actually, I prefer the kitchen.
There might be one.
It's either Iceland or Greenland.
they basically have a woman's day every year where no women turn up to work.
I think that's...
And the productivity spikes.
But I...
And if you're not aware of it, you don't know.
I would double check that because I suspect that might be information.
Well, Callum did a segment on it, and I'm sure he got it right because he's good at that sort of thing.
What else?
Oh, yeah, purge dynamics.
This is something interesting that I wanted to talk to you guys about.
Obviously, Conservatives went first, and then they were like, oh, do we just give up the grievance narrative and resign and go home?
Or do we turn it onto liberal white men?
Obviously, they turned it into liberal white women.
And as this article makes clear, you're pretty close to purging white men entirely.
Now, obviously, at that point, the whole DEI grievance class are not going to say, job completed, here's my resignation.
I'm leaving my 120 grand year job.
I'm going home to do something else.
I'm going to work at Costco.
They're obviously going to move the purge logic onto the next one.
And the thing that I can't figure out is that non-white men or white women.
Well, have you not seen the articles?
There was an article years ago, and it was literally titled, Black Men Are the White Men of Black People.
What?
Hang on, run that.
Run that by me again.
Black men are the white men of black people.
As in, what they're looking at is who does the majority of the work in the demographic cohort, and white men are the demographic who work hardest.
Black men can have some very socially conservative views.
But they are doing more work than the black women.
Not hard, but okay.
But this is the thing.
And so, like, the white man is the standard by which other demographics, which competency is measured.
No, no, there was another one about gay people are no longer in the progressive cohort anymore.
Not standard gay.
Gay people are the straight people of queer people.
Something like that.
Is that it?
Generally, there was an article that was arguing that gay people aren't oppressed, so they shouldn't get the I consider.
Is that so?
So gays are now being purchased.
Is it lesbians also?
So you have to be trans?
It's by comparison.
But at the same time, though, I've seen a lot of books and complaints about white liberal feminists taking all of the credit from black feminist achievements and stuff like that.
So the purposeful ambiguity of the progressive stack, it does make it.
I mean, if we're going to see society collapse, it is kind of exciting to see where it'll go next.
You're probably not old enough to remember white feminism, are you?
What do you mean, white feminism?
Well, exactly.
There we go.
You don't know what I mean.
Right.
So white feminism was the term that the intersectional feminists used.
No, I think this is what I was saying.
The middle-class liberal feminists.
We still have the critical race theory book in the library, and I took a flip through it, and it just reminded me of how amazing some of the essays in there are, especially the it's it should be permitted for black women to have crack babies.
Yes, that's just their expression of their natural selves.
Yes, and your prejudice against crack babies is a form of white supremacy.
Bloody white liberal women, feminists not wanting crack babies.
But that was the point.
They were the next in line because it's like, but you're a white woman and therefore you've got like particular privileges.
Do you think it's going to be non-white men come next?
Because I was talking about this with Harry earlier and you reckon it's going to be white.
Well, it's Asians.
I mean, Asians got completely purged.
They're obviously.
And so the purging has just gone down the line until it gets to the lowest common denominator.
I mean, it was about to be Jews.
But the Trump administration and Chris Ruffo and such with Harvard has put a pretty hard stop to that very quickly.
Yes, they've clamped down on that, haven't they?
Yes, that's what a lot of legislation recently has been clamping down on.
So will it be the humble white man's turn next, please, Mr. Trump?
It might be the only way you can survive in any of these left-wing industries is to be a Jew.
Male.
You might have to wear.
You could be a black woman.
Black women do great in these industries.
Oh, yeah.
No, no, no.
Without doubt, whether it's white women next or black men next, it is going to continue down until it's just women, ethnic women.
Yes.
And then it's going to be last ethnic trans women.
From top to bottom.
Yes.
Parallel systems.
I'm moving to Irania in South Africa.
Parallel systems.
You know, I'm kind of making the point here that because, and actually, you started to make this point earlier, Harry, because the writing rooms have been filled by people hired on something other than merit, everything is shit now.
So, I mean, most people probably can't remember the last time they went to the cinema.
I did because it was my kids, but it was to watch the Minecraft movie and the Mario movie because both of those were non-woke.
They were just a movie that I entertained my kids to.
I entertain my kids to the Jurassic.
I mean, in like the 90s, I used to go to cinemas all the time.
In the early weeks, yeah.
Yeah.
I'm trying to think what the last thing I saw was that you actually wanted to see.
For me, it was Bohemian Rhapsody.
It was about that.
Earlier this year, I saw the Darren Aronofsky film Caught Stealing, but Aronofsky is kind of like a holdover legacy director who can do what he wants.
My Mrs. Wants to go see Five Nights at Freddy's 2.
I'm not familiar with that.
But fair play, that is a series that has been built from the ground up by its creator, who is a Christian conservative man, which is what they tried to cancel him over years ago.
The only thing I actually went to the cinema for myself to watch was the Dune movie, which was actually all right, June 2.
June 1 was alright.
It was a bit slow.
Oh, right.
Yeah, maybe I should have gone to the cinema, but I actually just watched it at home.
And I'm actually quite looking forward to June 3.
So that's like the only thing I've actually watched, but that's because I like the June 2 series.
Denis Villeneuve, that director, he's kind of a holdover from the early 2010s as well.
And he's got prestige as an artsy director as well.
So he's given a bit more leeway.
But the fact that we're even having this conversation, when it used to be weekend, what are we going to the cinema to watch this week?
Yes.
You know, it's going to be something good on.
The only other director I can think of who's consistently allowed to get away with it is Robert Eggers.
But that's because he keeps specifically setting his films with specific times and stories where he just, I'm just, all of my stories are about white men.
Okay, but contrast this.
So we've all agreed that we don't go to the cinema much, if ever.
Do you watch every new nerd erotic video that comes out?
Because I do.
I don't have time to watch most things, but I watch, you know, whenever.
I don't mind nerderotic.
I will watch his videos.
I'll spend hours of time watching nerd erotic trash Hollywood.
Yeah.
I won't watch Hollywood.
I watch a lot of Critical Drinker, to be honest, because his videos are quite short.
So I can actually watch them.
Yeah, but I don't like watching things with subtitles.
He hasn't got that thick an accent.
It's actually got a very posh Scottish accent.
But like, because it's easily consumable, because I just don't have all the time in the world to watch.
I might skip the last one, but this one I definitely did want to cover.
So liberalism is a failure method.
So the other interesting thing about this is that if you're a right-wing man, you have alternative options.
You can go off, you can do something else.
You can work for a right-wing firm.
If you're a liberal male, and this is why this article is so panicked and had so much cut-through, you have literally nowhere to go.
Your option at this point is cease existing, don't be liberal anymore.
Or, I mean, try and make it on your own on like YouTube or something.
But even then, we've covered this plenty of times.
And there are loads.
It's basically an entire category of YouTube now.
What has happened to the liberal content creators?
And they've all had personal meltdowns and essentially fled the internet.
We did a lads hour on it with the bread tubers.
Well, think about our thing, right?
So who are we competing with in the mainstream?
Absolutely no one because there is no right-wing media in the mainstream.
Who are they competing with?
All of them.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's rough.
So, I mean, you know, and this is not a stable proposition.
So, well, and the way I put it there is that liberalism does need men.
Progressivism does not.
And progressivism is eating liberalism.
So that's why you've got this sort of panicked response going on on the left at the moment, as the last handful of liberals are trying to fight for the soul of the left, and they're losing.
Too low on the stack, sorry.
It's a hierarchy, buddy.
You asked for this.
Yeah, which is what you wanted.
Yeah.
I was a good liberal, and I supported all of these things until all of a sudden the logical consequences of my beliefs played out.
Exactly.
Brilliant.
Great idea.
I was a good liberal, which is why I don't have a job.
And it's like, yeah, this is what you asked for.
Yes.
And are liberal men just going to be sit-at-home losers for the rest of their life?
Or are they just going to stop being liberal?
What do you think the Nintendo Switch was invented for?
I think they're more likely to be losers.
Quite possibly.
Honestly, I don't think they'll stop being losers.
Because actually leftism is like a brain condition.
It's not like a choice.
It's a religion.
Yeah.
Some of these people are the ones who are so eager for the pod.
Yeah.
They desperately want the goon pod.
What else have I got that's worth talking about?
Institutional delay.
Yeah, absolutely.
There's going to be subsidies for these organizations.
We're going to have zombie institutions for years.
Yeah, although this is my point about...
Actually, my positive angle to all of this is that this is going to be how these old institutions die because they will just become increasingly less relevant and new institutions will be built on the other side of this.
Look at the BBC as a great example of this, right?
If you go back to when, like, we were kids, the BBC was really boring.
So it was a bunch of stuffy old white men talking boringly at each other in very complex.
Yeah, it was amazing.
But when you're, you know, you're like eight or nine years old, you see your dad watching this on TV and like, I don't care about this.
I'm going to go watch Transformers or something, right?
But it was stuffy old, responsible men giving detailed analysis of something.
Now it's a bunch of women and ethnic minority women talking in their own little closed talking shop.
And it's like, okay, why would I watch this?
Who cares?
And so, like, nobody watches NewsNight anymore.
Nobody watches question time anymore.
Oh, the license fee is just hemorrhaging.
Yeah, nobody pays.
Like, what BBC shows have been produced last year?
Oh, I don't know.
I've been license for 20 years.
Wasn't there some Doctor Who?
Do they still produce Doctor?
I'm not even sure.
They do, but I'm pretty sure that they've had to go back to pure fan service.
And now they're having Rose Tyler be the doctor.
Something like that.
But the point is they've already done, I think.
They don't produce anything of any impact anymore.
You don't watch any of the shows that they make, which are supposed to be politically relevant or culturally relevant.
They're just a zombie institution.
Yeah.
I mean, the boring documentary style stuff I'd mentioned yesterday, there was the David Ola Soga's 2016 Black and British, which had the claim that Geechie Head Woman was a black sub-Saharan, which has now been recently disproved.
So even if you watch the educational content, you're being lied to.
Are they going to publish a retraction of that comment?
Probably not.
I think they put a blue plaque up as well.
That was taken down.
Oh, they took it down, did they?
Right?
They did put the blue plaque up.
That's correct.
Yeah.
And very final point.
And this stems to something, a point you made to me a while ago about Rome.
You said that the, what was it, the Germans didn't need to conquer it.
They just walked in.
Yeah.
Because it collapsed from the inside.
That is exactly what is happening to liberal institutions at the moment.
They're just collapsing from the inside.
I mean, the Romans became so dependent on Germanic mercenaries that the Germanic mercenaries, like by the time of Romulus Augustulus, it was just kind of a formality to just be like, yeah, we're just not going to have another Rome.
When they walked into Rome, Rome was mostly Syrian at that point anyway.
Sure.
It's not just Rome.
It's the institutions of structure.
By the end of it, essentially it was just, well, there's nothing left other than for us to just set up our own kingdom.
It was just, it was over.
The left has done it to themselves.
Jefferson McGee says the left can't make anything good.
All they can do is deconstruct well-made things made by others.
Merry Christmas.
Obviously true.
Lucas sent loads of $1 super chats, which I'm not going to accept.
Oh, my God.
I'll read one of them.
Read the one, three down.
Don't forget the New Zealand Navy captain who capsized a boat by running into a reef, which the boat was designed to map or something.
Oh, my God.
I had forgotten about that.
And Somerset South African says, Merry Christmas, you're filthy animals.
You know that that movie was apparently made up for Home Alone.
What movie?
Oh, the one where he's got where he's tricking the robbers by having the black and white movie where he's got the gun.
Oh, right.
Apparently, that wasn't real.
I've never watched Home Alone, so I don't know.
What are you not?
No.
That's weird.
He's just a very, it's a very wholesome film.
But it's like you saying I've never heard the song Coming Home for Christmas earlier in the office.
Driving Home.
Oh, driving home for Christmas.
I have now.
I listened to it.
It was a delightful little song.
It's weird, man.
Anyway, so following on from what Dan has just shown us, as in the liberal men have been completely excised from the institutions because full spectrum liberalism took over our civilizations and has decided, oh no, it's equality for everyone, men being at the bottom of the equality pile for some reason.
Women are starting to figure out, hang on a second, the world has changed, and I didn't agree to this.
And this is a weird genre on TikTok.
But TikTok is full of these.
Women complaining that they can't sit down on the tube or on the train.
This is everywhere.
And you'll see, like, all the princesses are sitting, and she's just pointing to men.
Is she pregnant?
No.
She's just a normal woman who's just annoyed that she doesn't get to sit down on the tube anymore.
Right.
There's a lot of ethnic diversity on there.
So many cultures.
I assume this is New York or something.
This is London.
That's London.
Oh, this is London.
Oh, yeah.
Lots of ethnic diversity.
But why should they?
Why shouldn't they be sitting?
Why should they be standing for you?
You assumed a kind of social understanding between men and women from a previous era that was overturned from the 1960s up till now.
Yes.
That men would be considerate towards women.
And since that's all gone, you've literally said, well, we want liberation from this evil patriarchal society.
Not this woman in particular, but like women in general.
And so this is something that women are starting to realize.
Well, hang on a second.
There were a lot of benefits that came along with this sort of patriarchal order.
And we don't get to, uh, we don't get to experience them anymore.
Now they're making a bit of a joke about this, but look at this woman.
What do you think her job is?
It's probably like brand manager or something like that.
Right?
What do you think her income is?
It's going to be over 100k a year.
Look at the clothes she's.
It's going to be three or four times what that dude's is.
Exactly.
Exactly.
right?
It's going to be three or four times what these dudes, what do these dudes do?
Probably something very manual about upkeep.
No, I'm assuming I was going to say, I'm assuming those guys that she was talking to deliver rooms.
Well, those particular guys may be, but the point is, they're not going to earn a lot of money and they're going to do something that's physical, right?
They're going to be exposed to the elements.
They're going to be doing something that is practical, that keeps the civilization running.
And she's actually in the privileged position.
I mean, really, when you think about it, she should give up her seat for them.
Exactly.
Right?
The tables have turned.
Yes.
And actually, she's in the position where she ought to be.
This is what the new society is.
When the women are making all the money and they've got the lovely clothes and they go on their shopping sprees because you earn 100k a year or whatever, three times more than these guys.
What did you think was going to happen?
Yes.
And the answer is this.
It's kind of, if I have to put up with having a female boss, you have to put up with standing.
Basically, yeah.
I imagine most of her disposable income is on those weekly shops and probably Netflix and wine to drown out the loneliness.
Hey, you know, you get the future that you chose.
And so, yeah, it's this kind of thing.
And it was just the way she's dressed.
She's just wearing such nice clothes and she's gone shopping.
Like, you know, all the guys are just wearing jeans and just looking kind of sad, to be honest.
But this to her.
She's having to put in considerably more effort because the more her income and the more her status goes up, the harder it is for her to find a suitable husband.
So she needs to really double down on the looking good and being at her best.
Whereas for them, it's like, oh, yeah, whatever.
They just import their sister from Kazakhstan or something.
Yeah.
But also, like, who's being frivolous here?
Right?
She's being frivolous because this is kind of, yeah, you know, I know I've got everything in life.
These guys who just sat there miserable on the phones.
At least she's having a bit of a joke about.
I guess.
I guess.
It's not anywhere near as bad as it could be.
There are others who are just not.
Like, we'll watch some more.
It feels a little fake and gay.
Gotta tell you, guys, it feels a little fake and gay.
And there will be it feels a little fake and gay.
It's a short one.
But as you can see, in America, it's the same.
Sorry, you know, not a problem.
This is a quality, isn't it?
This is the way that the civilization should work.
This is what a feminist civilization looks like.
And yeah, you see it just everywhere.
Big ass bag pad and a picnic blanket and a buck, right?
Tell me why the hell there was one empty seat open, and you know who raced me to that seat?
A man.
A man, a grown-ass man race me to that seat.
So I just got off the subway and so.
What a hard life.
Again, what do you think she does?
You know, I bet she does some kind of email job in a nice high-rise block of offices that's air-conditioned.
And now she's doing it in New York, most certainly, yeah.
Exactly.
And now she's, oh, right, so some guy just beat me to this seat.
I expected more.
It's like, but you're playing the role of the man.
I mean, I do think it's a shame, and I do think it's wrong.
And I never wanted this civilization in the first place.
Well, exactly.
I don't agree that this is how the civilization should be run, but you do.
That's the thing.
Like, you are getting the thing that you asked for.
And I'm sorry, but I'm up for that.
This one is just this woman with this bit of text.
Lady Chivalry is in fact dead.
I tried to get onto a train with a 20-kilogram suitcase and couldn't lift.
And three grown men stood in the doorway watching me struggle to get on and refusing to move out of the way as I'm quite literally falling down the stairs.
And don't get me started about them pushing in front of you as you get on the train and get a seat.
So what are we asking for here?
We're asking.
Well, it appears like they're asking for the benefits of patriarchy while at the same time encouraging misandry.
While at the same time encouraging a feminist society, even if we don't, you know, we can characterize it in their best terms as, oh, we just want complete equality.
It's like, okay.
But the point of women's liberation is to liberate you from these kind of structures.
It's not the best from Column A and the best from Colin B. Exactly.
You know, you have to take the rough with the smooth.
And you decided you wanted the high income.
And now you're saying, well, I also wanted the kind of social consideration that I was getting from it.
It's like, sorry, you're not my responsibility.
I owe nothing to you because you spent, not you personally, and feminists spent 20 years berating us, saying women don't owe men anything.
We don't owe you this.
We don't owe you that.
It's like, oh, okay, great.
I don't owe you my labor lifting your suitcase, getting onto the train.
Is this the world that you wanted?
I mean, often you do because you pay tax.
And a lot of these women are married to the state.
So there is that.
Sure, but on a personal level, I don't have to do this.
And if I do this, it's out of my own goodwill.
And again, this just carries on.
Like, these women are genuinely outraged.
And you'll notice that they're all in their sort of 20s, right?
So they have expectations, and the men are just not fulfilling them.
Five grown-ass men walk by.
Grown-ass able-bodied men walk by as I struggle to like hurry all of my shit and help this poor mother with three children carry her shore down the stairs.
They just looked and kept walking.
I'm literally like dropping my umbrella and everything.
They just keep on walking.
I mean, these videos don't help either because it's like, oh, well, who would I be helping?
I'd be helping the social media mum who would scold me.
Well, she's scolding me.
She's not the mum.
She was helping the mum.
Either way, the scolding tone never helps.
Like, we've all been there, bros.
When you're about to like do something, or maybe you're about to get five minutes to sit down and do something, and you are asked to do something, not politely, not, oh, do you mind doing this?
You get the scolding tone and you immediately sink deeper into your chair and you become a moody 15-year-old teenager again because you have learned to rebel against the scolding tone.
I think I'm a bit too old for that to have been my life experience because I'm actually not familiar with that.
Are you really not?
Not really, no.
And yeah, I mean, I'd just say no, but I, yeah.
Well, yeah, obviously you say no, but it does put you back up and puts you on the defensive.
It's like maybe I was just lucky with my mum, to be honest.
Yeah, maybe.
She wasn't a scolding type.
No, my mum wasn't the scolding type, but you experience it growing up these days.
I bet you do.
Like, when I was in school, we still had quite a lot of male teachers.
So it wasn't such a big deal.
But they still existed back then, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, so I never got that so much actually when I was in school.
But again, look, look at this woman.
Look at her, right?
Look at these gold earrings.
How much did that makeup cost?
How much did the nails cost to get done?
We are looking at the upper class of like New York or wherever this is.
The only thing that occurs to me is you say that this is a big sub-industry on TikTok.
Yeah, there's loads of them.
What's the other one?
The other one is when you get these women in gyms basically going in in a set of gymwear that I'm confident that I could swallow without the need of a glass of water.
And if anyone ever looks at them, the whole thing is why the hell are guys looking at me?
Contrasted with this, which is why the hell aren't guys looking at me and coming over to me.
So like the two things are diametrically opposed.
I want everything my way and not the other.
It's like, sorry, the whole of society is a negotiation.
And you told men, we don't want you looking at us, we don't want you paying attention to us, we're not doing anything for us.
We're strong, independent women, we can do it all on our own.
And now you're there with your money and your bags of shopping or whatever.
And you're like, why is nobody helping me?
It's like, sorry, this is the future you created and this is what you were asking for.
This is what the social contract society is, frankly, where no one actually has to care about anyone around them.
I mean, I wouldn't mind so much.
I'd be more amenable to helping people.
I do try and help people out, but I just don't want the sass.
I don't want sass to come with it.
Speaking of sass.
Let's be sincere in our interactions with other people.
But again, I want you to pay attention to the quality of the clothing that these women have.
I mean, this one's just wearing a t-shirt.
But these other women, like, they're really well dressed.
These things that they are wearing are not cheap.
You know, they have the best of everything, and they're complaining about the society in which they live.
I just need to know what's going on with this current generation of men.
Because tell me why I was on the train and it was really packed.
There was this little old lady who had a walker and she needed a seat.
And there was one seat left in between me and this other guy.
He moved over to give her the seat, but there still wasn't enough room for her.
So I just got up and I was like, here, you can move down so she could fit.
And instead of him saying, no, you sit down and I'll stand, he's like, thanks.
And then anytime I'm in a plane, no guy is helping me put my carry on in the overhead bin.
There is an apocalypse of sassy men.
Chivalry is dead.
And I don't know when this would happen, but it's really weird.
Apocalypse of sassy men.
Well, I mean, culture has been encouraging men to just be gay.
Look at all of these massively entitled rich women.
Yeah.
Like, sorry.
Maybe they're just giving what they get.
My first thought with this is that one's cute.
Second thought is what's going on here is that the biological imperatives are conflicting quite hard with the ideological ones.
She wants to live.
Her biology is telling us she wants to live in a world where men are deferential and chivalrous.
Fair enough.
But ideologically, I bet she is opposed to every action that would result in that happening.
Exactly.
Exactly.
They are completely against the patriarchal civilization that produces the desire and the will in men to treat women as if they are important in everyday life.
Just women you don't know.
That has disappeared because of, well, I mean, at least I would say 20 years of feminist programming.
And now, okay, you've got the feminist society we're always asking for.
Why are men not treating me with respect 20 years after we took away all respect from men?
Exactly.
Well, yeah, also on the gym thing that you mentioned, the conflict there becomes for young men helping a young woman like this, the conflict becomes, well, if I help her, am I just going to get an accusation?
And that's a whole other sort of column of problems that can come with interceding in a woman's life unannounced, right?
You don't know what like there's that, there was that graph going around recently where it was like the different levels of sexual assault or something, and it was scoring it as it goes down.
And I think near the top, like it had one point.
So it wasn't really, but it still allocated one point was like approaching a woman unsolicited.
So if you ask.
I'm not getting that if you go which is the entire complaint of this whole series yeah Yeah, if you go to a woman at the bar and you think she's cute and you say, hey, do you mind if I buy you a drink?
Like, it used to be the classic thing to do, right?
Apparently, according to modern standards, if that graph is to believed, you are actually now one point higher on the rape scale.
Like, so with men making these calculations in their mind, what's what's is it worth it?
Yeah.
But again, why should I help you with your baggage?
Like, look at you.
You obviously got a nice desk job where you send emails or you do fashion design or whatever it is.
You're dressed really well.
You obviously out-earn me for the average man.
I'm not helping you.
You know, I don't see myself as being in any way superior to you.
And you're getting along just fine.
You're an independent woman.
You don't need a man.
And again, it seems everywhere.
This is one from London.
I'm being very dramatic right now, but chivalry is so freaking dead.
Why did I just get off the bus?
He has to take the bus to the university.
Anyways, why did I just take the bus and I'm willing to go with the bus?
Six men have just walked past me.
One man out of six, seven men has let me go fast.
What the hell is that?
This is not about equality.
This is about chivalry.
Chivalry is dead.
And these are grown men, by the way.
These are not just little boys.
I don't know.
So if you're grown and you don't do it, who will you teach?
Your sons are going to be 10 times worse.
And it's the grown men that's producing sassy little boys.
Bloody hell.
All the 14-year-olds I know are sassy as hell.
I like this.
It's not about equality.
It's about chivalry.
But it is about equality.
That is what has brought us to this point.
And notice the concern for the future.
Well, hang on a second.
If the grown men now are just essentially blanking me, right?
They're just treating me as if I'm not really here, as if I'm not really an important thing in the social network in which we're all residing.
Their 14-year-olds don't care about me at all.
They don't see me as being something that needs to be protected by society.
And in fact, she's probably, you know, going to a job or whatever.
You know, they're viewing me as essentially the upper class of this society, which is what your segment was all about.
The women and minorities have been given access to all of the material wealth of the society.
And use that to say, right, and now we're kicking out all the men.
Yeah.
And so the young men are just like, right, okay, well, these are the bosses then.
These are the people who are constantly lecturing me, scolding me, whatever.
And they're like, oh my God, they don't respect us.
They don't care about us.
They're not treating us as if we are their concern.
It's like, no, why would they?
And if it's equal to sitting these young boys down and making them watch that sodding Netflix series and giving them lectures about adolescent tape is going to move from blanking them to outright hating them to contempt.
Yes.
To being.
And the thing is, the reason I've been highlighting the material quality of what these women have is because there is a class dimension to this.
These are not poor women.
These are women who are doing very well out of modern society and they're complaining about equality.
It's like, sorry, you know, there are other aspects to this.
And again, you see this one.
Well, all women are standing.
This isn't what we meant when we said we want equality.
It's like sucks to be you.
That's too damn bad, isn't it?
Again, like the last article, you got what you asked for.
Like the whole concept of chivalry is built on the idea of fundamental inequality.
Women are different and they are less capable than men physically.
So men should physically help women if they're struggling to lift something or if they need to sit down.
We can stand.
It's like standing to duty.
But, and duty doesn't exist anymore.
Those classic virtues.
You literally abolished it.
Yeah, those classic virtues are seen as toxic these days.
So, screw you.
Yeah, and look at, again, look at the guys.
The guys are quite slubby, underdressed, just sat there.
They're not proud.
You know, they look quite depressed, to be honest.
They're just wearing t-shirts, you know, whereas these women, like, dressed up.
Like, they're wearing lovely clothes.
I mean, if anything, she gets her phone out, starts filming.
That's going to put them on guard.
There's a air of suspicion in the air.
Is, oh, God, I'm about to be plastered on social media for something.
That's really going to win you friends.
Exactly.
And so, sorry, no, this is what you meant when you said we want equality.
You just thought you would be able to get the material benefits of being an independent woman and the social privileges of being a woman in a traditional society.
But actually, they cancel each other out.
You get one or the other, and you're going to have to essentially give up all of these privileges that have disadvantaged the men in society if you want to return chivalry.
Now, you know, I don't think you're going to do that, but this is the nature of the beast.
And you just have to accept that.
And Luke says, Dan, this is why when you say men should just talk to women in bars and young men don't want to, is why men fear getting a false allegation.
The fact there's no punishment for women.
Whilst that is true, women have things that you need, so suck it up.
Unfortunately, it is the case.
The 24-7 Goon Cave doesn't have, doesn't worry about that.
Yes, but I despise the 24-7 Goon Cave.
So do I, but that's what it's been built for.
Well, men can't.
Oh, God, men aren't approaching women anymore.
They're getting all of these frustrations.
They're watching Andrew Tate.
Maybe they're getting different ideas that we don't like deploy the Goon Cave.
I mean, it is honestly one of the worst traps that modernity has for young men.
Absolutely.
Luke also says, best way to summarize modern feminism: women want the rights of men, the privileges of women, the responsibilities of neither.
I mean, that's just bang on, isn't it?
Imagine what happens if you combine robot AI and artificial wounds.
The Japanese are working on that, I understand.
Baystape says, happy holidays, and by holidays I mean holy day, and by holy day I mean Christmas, not your other gay ones.
I appreciate that, thank you.
Luke again says, unfortunately, this is something I've seen with a lot of the fair.
They don't seem to learn until they've suffered.
Like if you have a child and learns by the serve is hot, by burning its hand and, to be honest, if you want to be treated the same as a man, I'll treat the same as a man, which is first in first rest.
Yeah, I mean honestly, I'm I'm not terribly sympathetic to well-off women who the ones I'm sympathetic for are the women who never did any of this stuff.
They didn't try and tear down the patriarchy, but they lost all the benefits of it anyway.
Yeah, just lose-lose.
Yeah, but at the end of the day, you were a sideline participant in this, right?
Like, if you don't actively speak against the women who are actually going to take away the feeling of security and comfort that you have living in your own civilisation, then when it's gone, you'd be like, well, I guess...
Well, I mean, early on, that was the case.
There were leagues of women who organised against the suffragettes.
Exactly what I was going to say, yeah.
And the Tories gave the suffragettes what they want and invited...
What's her name?
Pankhurst into the party.
But but in yeah, very conservative.
Um, but in the 2010s there weren't right.
In the 2010s, there weren't leagues of women organizing this.
There were very I mean, there were a very small number of literally a handful of women.
100 years down the line well exactly, but okay well, you know, you allowed them to do this and now you're living with the consequences.
This is just the way things are.
Jubb says the left can't make.
Oh no, I read that one.
Yeah, you read that one.
Okay right, may I have you may, I don't like the box, I'll take the thank you.
There we are.
So now we've seen white men being disenfranchised, white women getting what they asked for.
What is the ultimate consequence of these things?
Well sadly, you end up with men who decide to go their own way.
You decide, you find men who decide to take the red pill and exit the matrix and follow influencers like Andrew Tate, who the establishment absolutely hates and we have our own issues with him here, but that's not the subject of this discussion and as a result of all of these young men deciding that they want to follow influencers like Tate.
They have decided that they are going to send boys in UK schools on courses to tackle misogyny.
God, imagine being hectored by 40 year old feminist cats.
This is what I mean.
This is where it's it starts.
You begin if your mother is kind and considerate at home and you don't experience the scolding, the hectoring, the longhousing there, if she encourages you and cares about you well at school.
They hate you and they will do the opposite and this is sorry just to they.
They literally want to longhouse an entire generation of boys.
Oh yes, which is gonna.
Which is gonna go great.
Yeah, this is, it's gonna go great.
It's focused on preventing the radicalization of young men, part of a wider strategy, as part of a twenty million pound package to see teachers getting training on how to identify positive role models.
So those boys who are looking up to Andrew Tate, or maybe even yourself Carl, they're going to be getting replaced with role models.
They are acceptable male role models because they've torn down every single one that was put up.
I mean, 10 years ago, it was Jordan Peterson, who was his mild-mannered professor, and they tore him down.
I mean, who do they think is a positive male role model?
It wasn't even Jordan Peterson 10 years ago.
That was about eight years ago.
Dylan Mulvaney?
I guess that is RuPaul.
Keir Starmer, maybe?
I don't know.
Keir Starmer and his plate of beans.
For anyone wondering, Keir Starmer was recently doing one of their sort of photo ops with, I don't know, Fireman or something like that.
And they're all eating full English breakfast, but Kier Starmer has a bowl of beans with no cutlery.
Very bad.
And it's just like, no, this is terrible optics.
He's probably so unimaginative, he can't comprehend taste.
But doesn't he have a PR team who are like, right, okay, he needs at least a spoon to eat the beans with.
I feel like Mr. Southport, his PR team, gave up altogether.
After he gave all of those interviews where he said, I have no inner life and no personal interests, they said, well, just let him carry on then.
We're completely hopeless.
But perhaps Zach Polanski, positive role model for men.
God.
Ed Miliband.
Who's the most soy man that you can think of?
Oh, it's Ed Miliband.
Yeah, Jones.
There you go.
Owen Jones.
Yeah.
So they're going to present new role models for them, and schools will take part in the teacher training pilot.
And those schools will be chosen next year, while ministers will aim for all secondary schools to teach healthy relationship sessions by the end of this parliament.
So it's a bad enough time in most schools teaching the education, like the actual subjects that they're supposed to.
Now you're expecting, I mean, this has been something going on for years as well, but now you're expecting them to teach healthy relationships.
Your childless, husbandless female teacher who has a great relationship with her cats and boxes of wine at home is going to teach you how to identify healthy relationships.
I mean, I'm wondering how this proposal got through, because surely there must have been at least one male in the room who could have said, if you do this, it will backfire spectacularly.
That male was Kier Starman.
That male was probably like Wes Streeting or something.
Or Wes Streeting.
Or Ed Miliband.
This is Jess Phillips and her, like, you know, women's section of the home office sort of.
She genuinely hates men.
Yeah, I know.
Which is why we've got this.
But on the plus side, this is going to be a golden era for Andrew Tate's rumble figures.
So, you know, good news for Andrew Tate.
His numbers are going to skyrocket.
So, what we're thinking is there's going to be the Streisand effect.
There's going to be like three boys in the room who haven't yet heard of Andrew Tate.
And when they get the Andrew Tate hour of hate, they're going to be like, got to check this guy out.
Yeah, exactly.
Maybe we can get us added to the list.
Maybe, maybe.
But this is the thing, like, there were going to be loads of, like, I went through the numbers the other day.
And it's something like about 30% of young boys have got a positive opinion of Andrew Tate.
Now, that doesn't mean they watch Andrew Tate all the time.
That just means they think he's okay, and now I'm going to get on and play him with him.
They probably like him because he represents the opposite of every, yeah, the opposite of everything they hate.
But if they're being lectured about this on a weekly basis, right?
It's time for your anti-misogyny lessons.
Oh, God, you know, it's like doing REL.
His numbers are going to ring.
They're going to invent new slurs to throw at the teachers.
Exactly.
And if Andrew Tate, then on Saturday afternoon or something, does his stream being like, blah, women bad?
Who's going to get the numbers?
Well, that's what they're doing.
And of course, the start of the story here, because there's a deeper message to all of this, starts with Rupert Lowe pointing out that if you care about actual women's safety in the country, then the schoolboys, certain schoolboys, aren't the threat.
He says that importing countless young men from third world cultures that treat women like dirt, implied here, and assault them, is the threat.
Forcing this ridiculous guilt on young, decent lads is truly despicable.
Rupert Lowe coming out with common sense logic.
One good MP.
Again, and David Aronovich, a non-sensible person, not a good person that I like, says Rupert will want to remind us of the ethnicity of the murderer of Sarah Everard.
He's single-shaped.
Yeah, why are we cherry-picking that example, David?
At which point, Rupert Lowe invokes those two magic words we all know so well.
Per capita.
Yeah.
Which is where the story truly begins.
Because obviously it's a festive time of year.
It's a time of year where we go to see our family and celebrate the truly good things in life.
But it's also important around Christmas time to pay a thought to the needy.
Can we just pay attention to the ratio here as well?
Oh, yes.
700 to 18,000.
Think of those less advantaged than us, those of us who can't comprehend what per capita means on Christmas, including poor Femi.
Femi Oluwole, a law graduate somehow, sent to a private school, wasted education.
Honestly, it's going to be very similar to the David Lamy legal career.
It really is.
He responds, and, you know, say your prayers in the comments and in the replies and in the chat right now, because it really is quite a sad sight.
He says, if per capita is your excuse for focusing more on the crimes of minorities, when you know that white people commit far more, you care about more about racial point scoring than protecting women.
At which point, in his confused anger, Femi goes on to call Rupert an S stain on humanity.
This really is quite a tragic site that we have in front of us.
Because, of course, Femi is making the mistake of looking at the pure gross numbers of statistics, the pure totals, rather than looking at things proportionally, as is able to, as he's able to through per capita.
Can we help Femi this Christmas to make the breakthrough that he so desperately needs?
So I've decided to start with a simple lesson, go onto the Wikipedia and just read the opening line of this.
Per capita is a Latin phrase, literally meaning by heads or for each head, and idiomatically used to mean per person.
It's a proportional measure, and when we're talking about risks, it can be an excellent case of risk factor.
So I use an analogy here to demonstrate that.
Is it not Hannah?
I was under the impression there's some sort of white supremacist dog whistle.
It goes back a lot longer than that.
Oh, okay.
Carl.
It really does.
And it's a really useful metric.
I know that you, of course, have some Zulu in you.
So perhaps you need this lesson this Christmas as well.
So the analogy, of course, being English, I had to relate it to beans.
So you have a gun to your head and are forced to eat one bean.
There are 100 green beans.
10 are poisoned.
The rest are safe.
There are 10 red beans.
5 are poisoned.
The rest are safe.
Do you eat the green bean or the red bean?
Well, this is when Fraser Nelson comes out with his graphs and he says, well, last year, 10 people were poisoned eating green beans, but only five people were poisoned eating red beans.
Therefore, the answer has to be you should eat a red bean.
Thank you for that intervention, Fraser.
Fraser, of course, would be referring to graphs and statistics mainly taken from anecdotal information of people taking very noticeable in Kensington.
Yes, and there were a number of responses to this.
One of my favourites being from this chap, No Sleep City, let's pray for him this Christmas, who says, So you have seven million total crimes, five million committed by whites, two million committed by blacks.
Do you focus on the two million committing crimes or the five million committing crime?
Which is so woefully ignorant and misses so much of the data and the point here that I have no true response to it except for to find the first person posting this meme, which he had his own response to.
Interesting.
They're both true numbers.
And of course, the point of the proportionality is to point out that given the information presented, if you were to encounter in the wild a green bean or a red bean, you would know that you have a 10% chance of eating a poisoned green bean and a 50% chance of eating a poisoned red bean, all other issues being even.
That's the whole point.
I once looked at a chart of dog bites.
And it was like the top 10 dog bites, and it started with the dogs you would expect-you know, the whatever, the little things, the stubby ones, whatever they are.
And number 10 was golden retriever.
And I thought, oh, that's odd.
What's going on here?
And there's a little note saying, yeah, that's because golden retrievers make up like 80% of household dogs.
And because there's so many of them and such wide interpretation of what counts as a bite, they're on the list.
Well, Femi caught wind of my little analogy, and of course, being the tragic case that he is, struggled somewhat in his response, citing ONS data from the year ending in 2017.
He says barely 0.002% of beans of any colour are brackets convicted poisonous.
So if my aim is to get rid of poisonous beams, removing beans based on colour would be pointless.
And even if we binned all of the dark ones, I said red, not dark, strange, it would still live 71% of poison victims who you don't care about.
Well, the problem being here is that he's completely changed the analogy, completely ignored the analogy.
Ignored the fact that in my analogy as well, I should have stated maybe to make it a bit more clear as well.
The green beans were already there and the red beans have just been thrown into the pile with no consideration for anybody else.
But also in the statistics that he said.
Why are we going for 2017 statistics?
Yes, there is a very selective bias taking on right here, being demonstrated right here.
However, even with this statistic right here, still not proportional.
71.4% of whites, that's still underneath what you would expect if it was purely proportional.
Especially in 2017.
Similarly, and also we know that certain communities simply don't report this stuff.
Yeah.
I was going to bring that up.
And we also know that certain communities, when it is reported, are ignored by the police.
Yes.
And there's also almost 21% here not stated, which somebody pointed out, to which Femi, sadly, again, we have to consider that Femi is struggling here.
This is really outside of his wheelhouse.
Says, well, is 20.9% anywhere near 71%?
So even if none of the non-specified were white, it would change the point.
Again, this is why we call you people stupid.
The problem, of course, being that you really just don't understand it.
This is not a stone that Femi wants to be throwing.
If you were to distribute this across all of the non-white categories here, that would make them massively disproportionate to their population size.
So, again, proportionality seems to be something that's very difficult for him to wrap his head around.
Again, other people chimed in.
Lauren Chen giving a 1350 using Group A and group B here, to which Femi responded saying, and if white folk, again, I was simply using the example of beans.
I was trying to use a non-politicized example here.
So it's very strange that Femi felt the need to jump onto this subject in particular.
But he said, if white folk are responsible for 64% of sex crimes, then they are massively less likely than other nationalities to commit sex crimes proportionally.
And again, this all relates back to we have imperfect information to judge things by in our day-to-day lives.
So we go by shorthands.
See, this is why I think he's just a moron.
Well, the examples that he's using here, the fact that he's unable to see that his arguments are terrible, again, points to the fact that Femi is struggling this Christmas.
think so i think that we really need to have some sympathy for him especially when people yeah we need to fundraise for femi perhaps so that he can be with people who don't confuse him in the ways that he is being confused by Especially when people post the actual per capita data here, and you can see how quite damning it is when you compare the British per capita, this is charged per 10,000, against those of, say,
Afghanistan extraction from Eritrea, from Algeria, from Somalia, etc., etc.
Nigerians, which I believe is the group that Femi is originally from, almost twice as likely as those of British nationality to be charged.
Which is the information that you should be taking from per capita data.
But there is also the question, I know we think he's a moron.
He definitely is.
But there is also the question of, could this be somewhat malicious ignorance here?
Is Femi feigning ignorance so that he can get on the nice list?
I've got to say, if he's pretending to be stupid, he's doing it very well.
Yeah, I'm very convinced.
No one said that he's not an excellent actor.
What was Femi's username?
Femi underscore F Politics.
There you are.
He gets ratioed a lot.
Constantly.
He's zero ratios.
The thing is, though, that when it comes to issues that he finds are important to him, his own interests, for instance, the disproportionate use of stop and search against black people, particularly young black people, in London, this is going back to 2019, he seems able to wrap his head around it.
It's very interesting.
He says here, stop and search was disproportionately used on ethnic minorities when Boris Johnson was mayor of London.
And Boris knew that when he talked about people who look like they might have a knife on them.
So is this something where he's simply feigning ignorance?
Or in the six years since the end of 2019, has Femi had some kind of tragic Christmas misfortune that has robbed him of the ability to understand.
And the thing is, I do know, because I used to live in London, that the police do go out of their way to stop a lot of random white people as well.
I think you just get these confused people in their suits and their umbrella.
It's like, why the hell are you stopping me?
And it's obviously to make up the numbers of the white people they've stopped.
But this is again about per capita, Femi.
Yes.
Per capita explains why it's disproportionately.
But that's my point.
When you dig up the numbers, you'll probably find that more white people have stopped and searched thanks.
Just to make up the numbers, I agree.
But like, this being like, it's racist.
It's like, okay.
All right, Femi.
Yes.
When I say that this could be malicious ignorance, it's because returning to the new government-mandated school curriculum to stop boys hating women or something is that it all seems to tie back to the fact that Femi wants to highlight examples where there were white men committing sex crimes for which they are charged and hopefully,
of course, if they are guilty, put away in prison, as is right, because you administer the law fairly.
There's no one questioning.
Saying that this is why Reform UK must never be allowed into power.
Or men like Philip Young, this man, Philip Young and his five mates have been charged with the rape of a woman over 13 years.
Of course he should go to prison.
But he says in this video that it shouldn't be racially looked at.
should just be looked at as a man problem so again his ignorance but there is a racial difference because there's a massive racial difference Young's friends and family will never talk to him again.
Yes.
Whereas if it was Mofasa Kebab, his friends and family would turn up in court and cheer for him.
Yes, or they may have been involved in it in some way and maybe just taking a nice weekend trip to above the kebab shop so that they could heartache, but there's just no evidence for it.
Again, if it's these people, anybody else like this, anything like this, all of a sudden, me no understandy, big think hurt brain hard.
But when it just turns into men and it's in support of government initiatives to longhouse young boys, all of a sudden, you know, it seems to paint a clearer picture.
But maybe we'll never get to the bottom of this Christmas mystery.
However, Femi has left us a lovely Christmas message.
He sang us a little song of Nigel Farage dreaming of a white Christmas.
Will this get us in trouble on YouTube?
Will this get copyrighted?
I assume it'll be okay.
Yeah.
He's dreaming of a white.
It drives me mad when I see Ambassador full of black people, full of Asian people.
Just like the ones he used to be.
Where men just start kissing.
Yeah, I'm automatically attracted to what I just said to sing that.
Listen to hear women sing no.
I'm saying a spend conviction is irrelevant.
You're quite right.
Slowly fade down.
What I find remarkable about this is that Femi thinks that this is somehow trying to make people not want to vote for Nigel Farage.
I like to think this is reverse psychology.
He's actually singing a very pleasant song to the sound of Nigel Farage's greatest bangers.
When most people hear, most British people hear these allegations that Nigel Farage is secretly racist.
Most of them are thinking, I hope so.
Well, we know because he literally went up in the polls.
Like, there was a week-long Nigel Farage is a Nazi, plus three in the polls.
Unironically, you might want to go out of your way to prove he's not a racist to actually kill his poll numbers.
Yeah, but I thought we'd end on a lovely little Christmas cheer song there.
And while you're sat at the dinner table enjoying your turkey and enjoying the festive family shenanigans this Christmas Day, spare a thought for those less fortunate than yourself, like poor old Femi here.
Let's go to the video comments, Samson.
Luke says, maybe you should have said, had you fired three shots randomly into a crowd of BLM activists, you would hit three paedophiles.
No, no, it was two pedophiles and one wife did.
That still is the most remarkable thing in the world, isn't it?
Yeah, what were the odds?
Sid Justin says Boris Johnson eats all 110 beans.
Yeah.
Probably.
Yeah.
Keir taking on the diverse tactics of electing the guy in New York.
Yeah, I know.
It's remarkable.
Yeah, he didn't have any cutlery with him.
So I like to think he was just appealing to the third world voters by just gobbling them up.
You know, like, not just string says, please view at least 30 minutes of your state mandated role models content, please.
This will be on the test.
Like, this whole lecturing boys as if they are all just going to be misogynists and hate women is so obviously a bad idea that I'm so in favor of it.
Like, I'm genuinely.
I can't wait till they get literally the video screen of Jess Phillips going and hectoring them for an hour.
I can't wait to see our subscription skyrocket.
And I'm clipping Harry asking if he'd buy me a drink and play it alongside a gentle glass clinging and the ambient bar soundscapes looped for 10 hours for a deep sleep.
You're welcome.
That's lovely.
And we'll get to the comments on the website when I there's one that came through late, which is a very good comment.
It's $20 and says, Merry Christmas.
Oh, well.
Merry Christmas to you two.
Russian says Endeavour air crash or female crew.
Yep, they advertised it as an unmanned cockpit.
I'm getting look it up.
Yeah, I know.
There were other men on the crew, but not in the cockpit.
They called it an unmanned cockpit.
Hey, man, that's clever.
That's clever.
Would it have been safer if it was a literally unmanned plane?
Probably, because it wouldn't have been moving.
Yes.
Who was it the other day that messaged me?
Apparently, their wife or something had got onto a plane and they'd heard a female voice coming in.
This is your captain speaking?
And they were like, oh, God.
This is Captain Karen speaking.
Yeah, so even women are like, I'd rather men fly the planes.
Omar says, what's the phrase?
Steel sharpens steel?
Even between the mediocre, competition brings out higher potential.
The lost productivity for everyone involved is incalculable.
Yeah.
Think positive says, didn't Callum literally have the same problem originally applied to the BBC?
Yeah, and he went through this in detail.
There were loads of BBC internships.
They were just literally for browns.
Yes.
Just if you're brown.
I found one that was like brown and black applicants would be preferred.
It wasn't just completely shut off.
So I thought, I will apply to this and just see what happens.
Almost immediately rejected, get an email the next day.
Sorry, we don't think you're a suitable candidate.
I wonder why.
And then I kept looking for the next few weeks afterwards, and it was everything else that was available was like, we are not interested in taking white applicants at this time.
Yeah, they had BAME-only internships.
Yeah.
So yeah, I thought they did.
So it's literally no whites.
So it's like, I'm not making autistic history documentaries for the BBC then.
Yeah.
The Native Hare says, what I find humorous is that I believe failed marketing is an attempt of an Overton window shift.
They've attempted to swing the common consensus for decades, only to be met with a hammer of common sense.
It just wouldn't work.
And they are coming to these points on a regular basis, frankly.
Alistair says, it's not only prevalent in jobs that require degrees, it's also pretty bad in the trait.
Though there are a few female women wanting to join the first place, the ones who do get treated like royalty, yeah, I've seen this in the workplaces.
In the trades, I've heard of a few people who work on construction sites where all of a sudden they've had a woman manager managing the construction site who did nothing to get there.
She was just handed the position because she's a woman, and all of a sudden productivity just comes to a screeching halt.
I used to work in a warehouse when I was younger, and there was one woman working in the warehouse, and obviously treated like a princess.
He says, I've seen female electricians and plumbers stand on the side and watch their male partner do all the work, even though they're of equal rank.
And I've heard from a carpenter buddy that after completing his training, all the local firms went straight for the women.
The only useful woman on a construction site, the Eastern European aunts who cleaned the place, and a very occasional painter.
Lord Hector X says, men won't correct women.
They'll just be extremely passive-aggressive.
Yeah, honey, go ahead, do that.
I'm sure it'll work out fine.
No, no, I wouldn't want to correct you.
Well, I mean, you've got to maliciously comply when you can, right?
And he says, Harry, not sure if you saw, but Trump's government is encouraging white men to sue for discrimination.
And I've seen more cases of them winning.
That's good, that's good, but you really just need to completely repeal massive bits of legislation.
Another late Robb Trader's come in, Jim Gunther.
I'm a 58-year-old American working in the UK here, instinctively stood up to surrender my lunch sheet to a colleague.
She looked at me with confusion and disgust.
Again, that's one of those things where it's like, well, I could do what is the right thing to do morally by my own standards, but am I going to get anything in return?
Are you going to accuse me of something?
Are you going to be even grateful for it?
And if you're not going to be grateful, then that just disincentivizes it every single time.
A couple of days ago, actually, on Newsweek, Trump admin encourages men to disclaim white men to claim discrimination money.
Okay, good.
I mean, you know, like Trump isn't perfect, but I'll take that.
I mean, if they're going to keep the Civil Rights Act, at least even out the way in which it can be applied to people, because in the actual legislation as written, it's not really carving things out for minorities.
It's just saying treat them all equally.
You'll get that back.
It was all of the judges' decisions afterwards that made it so discriminatory against white men.
Yeah, exactly.
It was the bias.
Alex says, earlier in the year, I submitted a 32nd book club on the book Manners for Men.
Advice contained within that book concerned giving you a seat up on the omnibus.
If a lady enters the vehicle when a man is seated, he does not give up his seat as he's expressed his preference to sit.
And a lady causing commotion to get a seat is being rude.
This is from Edwardian England, the height of mannerly behavior.
Interesting.
Interesting how that's like a kind of cargo cult that's developed afterwards then.
Blood for the Blood God sends in a last-minute $400 donation on Rumble.
Thank you very much saying, we love Richmond, bro.
With love, Richmond, bro.
Oh, sorry, with love, Richmond, bro.
Thanks, man.
Thanks.
Have a great day.
Merry Christmas.
He's trying to corrupt us for the ruiners' powers.
I can feel it, yeah.
He does tip well.
I have actually been thinking about starting a world eaters army just for the fun of it, because it's a nice colour to paint, frankly.
Lars says, Peak not giving up your seat would be to read women deserve less on the tube.
Did you see the guy reading Mein Kampf on the tube the other day?
Oh, yeah, and people were soying about it.
It's like, I don't really care, to be honest.
If he wants to read that book.
That's just funny.
Yeah.
Yes, that.
It's just a funny thing.
I just assumed that I must be missing something.
There was some extra step.
He was just reading it.
Yeah, just some guy reading Mein Kampf on the other side.
Didn't people zoom in and found out he was reading the Albanian translation as well?
I believe so, yeah.
One of the funniest comments was like, given that it's only a photograph and not a video, we can't see if every few moments he's shaking his head to signal disagreement.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's just like, oh, Hitler, that was, oh, that's too far.
Thing Positive says, the complaining woman on the train has to act on noblisse obligée.
After all, she is the modern aristocracy.
And that's the point, isn't it?
You know, she's the one doing well out of society, and yet she's still not happy.
Baron von Warhawk says, when it comes to the current generation of men complaining about men complaining about men taking the seats or wearing designer clothes, I think it means women complaining about men.
One thing that is probably on the back of every man's mind is how many of these young women are on OnlyFans?
Maybe, but I think a lot of them are just getting on with their day and don't understand why they're supposed to do something.
Crazy numbers, something like 25% of women in America under 25 were OnlyFans or something.
I think there was about 4 million in total.
I don't think it was 25%.
Wasn't that?
Whatever the percentage was, it was ridiculous.
Wasn't that a Louise Perry article when she was talking about On Eblue or something?
I think people dug into the statistics on that and found that the statistics, the source of them was very dubious.
It is still way too many.
Like when people are always talking about migrant crime, the ideal, the actual number of crimes committed by migrants should be completely zero.
Yes.
If they want to be here, the actual number of women on OnlyFans should be zero.
Yes.
I mean, just ban OnlyFans, man.
Baron Von Warhawk says, I thought those girls on TikTok were a bunch of strong, independent women who don't need no man to give up his seat.
Well, that's what we were told, right?
I mean, yeah.
Dudley says, the comic awareness of the increasing comic unawareness that the increasing majority of these unchivalric men were raised by single mums, women once again doing the most harm to women in society.
Feminism, the supremacy movement that's unaware of its own actions.
Yeah, this is the thing about the woman in London being like, oh, these 14-year-olds are like sassy and they're disrespectful.
It's like, yeah, but they probably were disproportionately raised by single mums.
She's a black woman.
She's probably in her community.
It's like.
Well, in that community, yeah.
Very likely.
Russian says, reminder that Femi is funded by Best for Britain.
They received £4 million in funding from Soros.
They link there from Charlotte Gill.
That's fair.
Dirty Belt says, per capita is just fractions.
I learned this in year two or three.
If someone can't wrap their head around it, they're literally worse at maths than a child.
Yes, but we are talking about Femi, who I believe is literally worse at maths than a child.
And also this guy.
Again, this example here, you've got 5 million crimes committed by whites, 2 million by blacks.
What's a 3% of the population here, man?
I was going to say, how many...
Well, he was referring to the FBI data.
Okay, 13% of the population.
I was going to say, but even then, it's like the statistics, if you look up at he highlights robbery for some reason, even though black or African-American robberies are higher than the white.
Like, the guy doesn't even understand the statistics that he's highlighting here.
It's absurd.
Well, that's incredible, isn't it?
If, like, what is it, 60% of the population commit fewer robberies than 13% of the population?
Like, you don't even have the per capita argument now.
Now it's just the raw number in your column is higher.
Now what?
Yeah, I mean, it's just...
I can't...
I find it difficult because it's that thing of, like, can you even put your mind...
Can you even conceptualize what it's like to be, like, someone of less than 90 IQ if you are not yourself less than 90 IQ?
I can't do it of less than 130.
Because it's going to be so outside of your frame of reference, they're not even going to have certain, they won't notice certain things that you have.
They won't have the same internal monologue that you have, if they have one at all.
You know, I saw a great tweet earlier this morning, actually, that I'd never really thought about, but actually makes complete sense.
It's like, look, if you've got like a country where the average IQ is like 80, right?
Like, you know, in sub-Saharan Africa or something, and you take someone of 90 IQ and put them in a society of 100 IQs, you've made both societies dumber.
Yeah.
That's a great point, actually.
Like, you know, we're pinching their best and brightest and we're making everything stupider.
Anyway, Derek says, if I were a kid now, I'd be a misbehaving little brat as a protest to all of this nonsense.
Well, that's the way things are.
Yeah, this is going to encourage young boys to play up.
But then again, you could argue that school does that anyway.
Michael says, this made me and my Eastern European workmates laugh so much, and now we need to keep saying it to each other.
Rupert is the plain speaker that we need.
Yeah, I know.
I do love Rupert Lowe's Twitter game.
He's so good at it.
Diogenes says, I don't like this bean analogy.
As someone who is red, green, colourblind, my chances of dying are way too high in this circumstance.
Yes, Christmas can be rather difficult as well.
Well, I'm sorry, I guess you're just going to have to go with Look at the Draw there, my friend.
Yeah, I know, man.
I would hand him a red bean, though, so that.
Because what if you give him a green bean and he doesn't die?
Well, that just means you've lowered your own probability when you pick a green bean.
Some evil game theory applies.
But the thing is, in my analogy, there's no competition going on.
It's just the one you've added yourself into this, maliciously feeding around, handing out beans.
Yeah.
Handing out red beans as well, the ones that are five times more likely to kill you.
California refugee says, just want to say Merry Christmas to everyone and Happy New Year.
Forgot to make a video, comment.
Well, we'll let you off.
What do you guys do for Christmas this year then?
Go into my family's house.
Sitting around eating stuff, tolerating in-laws, that sort of thing.
I've got 10 people coming over for Christmas dinner.
Not 10, but there'll be 10 of us.
I'm just like, oh, Jesus Christ, I've got to cook this.
Because I left it too late to book to go somewhere like an idiot.
Well, here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to sit at the dinner table, struggling to get my daughter to eat most of the food that's on her plate.
Oh, my God.
It's wild, isn't it?
Every Sunday, I'll go out of my way to make an amazing Sunday roast.
And then my kids will be like, I don't want it.
Well, yeah, I was at my parents' on Sunday with my little girl, and they were making food.
She was starving.
She started to get really whiny, sat in her chair.
She was pointing at the food as they were preparing it and plating up, going, she was going, mine, mine, mine now.
It's right now.
And then we hand it to her.
She eats the mash, like, has a tiny bit of the chicken, and then she goes, done.
Yeah, wild, isn't it?
Why were you so angry about it?
The other day, I had to look after the kids while I was cooking the dinner, and I didn't give them any lunch.
My wife got by the phone, they're hungry.
And I know, and they're going to eat their bloody dinner.
And they're going to be a little bit more.
Oh, mom does that.
Like five minutes before I serve up, she's handing around bowls of grapes and stuff.
And I'm like, stop it, woman.
What the hell do you think you're doing?
Exactly.
No, we starve them out.
Yes.
So when the food is actually put in front of them, they're thankful for it.
Yes.
Yeah, my parents were walking around because she was going like, oh, can I have some chocolate, please?
Give me chocolate, please.
And they were saying, oh, Harry, we can give her just a little bit of chocolate.
No, we can't.
No, she's not eaten yet.
Yeah, after dinner.
Yeah, after dinner, maybe.
Anyway.
Hector says, you've got a license for that lobster?
Yeah.
You've seen the lobster thing today, right?
No.
The UK government has decided that the highest priority that they have is banning boiling lobsters while they're alive.
What?
The bloody crustaceans.
Yes.
Yeah, lobsters.
They predate trees there.
So there's such a basic life form.
Yes, but the Labour government was like, you know what?
Things are going too well.
What we need to do is now address the really minor marginal problems that really affect very few people in the country.
We're not going to do anything about importing gang rapists.
But we are looking out for the lobster.
Oh, what about the economy?
I mean, like, Jesus, there are so many things that they could be fixing.
But the suffering of the lobster was right at the top of Labour's list.
Right.
I mean, the answer is, of course, it's class warfare, right?
They're obviously just attacking the rich people.
This is apparently an over-engineered spider.
I mean, there's...
Okay, fine.
Yes, but uh and Baron von Wawk says, Harry, I saw the Five Nights at Freddy movie in the cinema and I can confirm it's not woke at all.
Instead, it's just stupid fun that will make you laugh due to how absurd the plot is.
Don't worry, you can take your missus to it.
So, I mean, again, like, I think Scott Cawthon, the creator, has like a cameo in it, and Scott Cawthon got cancelled for donating money to MAGA and Trump.
And Jim Sterling freaked out and compared him to the KKK in a video.
So, Ganavius, I don't know what Five Nights at Freddy's is.
This is a horror video game series with the most absurdly over-complicated, purposefully confusing lore imaginable.
Right.
And the films are kind of tying into it to try and explain mysteries that have been around for over 10 years now.
But they probably won't, because it's all just about, you know, making money.
But it's fun.
It's fun enough.
So, how are you supposed to kill your lobster now?
Because the little bastards are literally armoured.
I mean, with a fish, you could just, you know, stab it or something.
How does non-stun halal slaughter do it?
Yeah, but the cows aren't armoured.
If cows were armoured like lobsters, you'd need to throw it off a bloody cliff or use an armor-piercing charge on it.
Perhaps this is a reintroduction of honor culture.
You have to prove your worth by battling the lobster in combat.
Yeah, well, you could drop a bowling ball on its head, but that doesn't seem any better to me.
That seems somewhat unfair.
Hand to hand.
I need to look this up after the podcast.
How do you dispatch a lobster humanely?
It's got to be like a spike through its head or something, right?
Yeah, you just.
But you'll be tapping for a while.
That's my point.
Oh, come on.
They can't be that well armored.
I don't know.
Magic says, Starmo was the role model for Mark Darcy's character in the Bridget Jones books.
That can't be true.
I don't believe that.
Yeah, I don't believe that.
But anyway, thank you for joining us, folks.
We are going to be off the air until the new year, like the third or something.
