=== Firefighters and Stereotypes (05:20) ===

[00:00:00]  I took a screenshot of this, this Twitter post I'm about to talk about.
[00:00:05]  They're using, like, some ad that the LA Fire Department did in conjunction with, guess what, 911, the television show, where there is, like, a big lesbian, a big black lesbian.
[00:00:21]  Is she a cop or is she a firefighter, Tony?
[00:00:24]  I think she's a firefighter.
[00:00:26]  Yeah, and so they were like cutting back and forth between this, you know, this real life, you know, I don't know what her sexuality is, you know, but like big butch woman or, you know, at least she's got short hair.
[00:00:36]  I didn't watch the actual video.
[00:00:38]  But, you know, making an implication that she's, you know, similar to the character or whatever.
[00:00:46]  And Clint Russell says, let me ask my female audience, if you're trapped in a burning building, would you feel better seeing this overweight lesbian slowly jogging in your direction, or do you want some Navy Seal-looking dude?
[00:01:02]  And that is true.
[00:01:04]  I mean, I might be burning to death, but I'm not dead yet.
[00:01:07]  You know what I'm saying?
[00:01:08]  You know what I mean?
[00:01:10]  I still got those urges, just like everybody else.
[00:01:14]  I'd rather see the fucking uncut Navy SEAL guy, right?
[00:01:18]  He's probably got a jock on, too, you know?
[00:01:22]  Yeah, I'm hoping he's not wearing a shirt.
[00:01:25]  I'm hoping I get to rest my head against his chest as he carries me out like a little baby.
[00:01:30]  I love the idea.
[00:01:32]  Well, the Navy SEAL, he is in full firefighter gear, but he's sprinting.
[00:01:36]  He's sprinting fast, not like the lesbian who's sprinting slowly while carrying oxygen and firefighter gear.
[00:01:45]  And it's funny.
[00:01:46]  I look at this woman.
[00:01:47]  I don't think fat or unhealthy at all.
[00:01:50]  I think strong.
[00:01:52]  I think big.
[00:01:52]  I think she could easily pick me up.
[00:01:54]  Yeah, she looks strong.
[00:01:56]  I'm stoked to see her.
[00:01:57]  I know that there are...
[00:01:59]  Me, personally, I know there are a bunch of Navy SEALs that can't help me out.
[00:02:03]  I feel like she could probably help me out.
[00:02:06]  It's so funny.
[00:02:07]  These believe your eyes.
[00:02:10]  Believe what you see, guys.
[00:02:11]  Look at this woman and they're like...
[00:02:13]  She couldn't press me.
[00:02:18]  These are all dudes who she could probably whoop their ass.
[00:02:24]  I trust her.
[00:02:25]  I look at her and I trust her.
[00:02:28]  Do you think normal firefighters...
[00:02:32]  Marvel has ruined your brain.
[00:02:34]  If you think the average firefighter looks like Chris Evans.
[00:02:39]  Yeah.
[00:02:40]  If you think the average firefighter looks like some roided out muscle fitness freak who is in whatever last vigilante justice movie or cape shit.
[00:02:56]  Yeah, this is just...
[00:02:57]  It's such a weird fetishization of masculinity.
[00:03:02]  I guess I get it.
[00:03:03]  I wonder how honest it really is because Clint Russell does not look like an alpha guy.
[00:03:12]  He doesn't look like a model, let's just say.
[00:03:17]  So I think maybe he's posing like one.
[00:03:20]  If you saw a firefighter and they were just ugly, would you complain about it?
[00:03:29]  Right?
[00:03:29]  If you're in a situation where you need to see a firefighter, are you going to care at all what they look like or who they are?
[00:03:35]  You're just going to be stoked that they're there.
[00:03:39]  It's the thing, too.
[00:03:40]  It's the whole individualism thing.
[00:03:42]  People forget how this works.
[00:03:44]  It's not going to be one firefighter helping you out.
[00:03:47]  They work in teams for a reason.
[00:03:50]  You know, and like, I have, don't get me wrong, I have a few friends who are firefighters that are definitely roided out, jacked, handsome dudes.
[00:03:58]  I also know other firefighters who are just regular folks who you might describe as like a schlub if you saw them walking down the street.
[00:04:04]  And they all save lives.
[00:04:06]  Yeah, if I see a firefighter, you know, coming towards me and he doesn't have that strong sort of square jawline, you might think, oh, well, that's, you know, you're just...
[00:04:19]  You know, giving a surface level reading or whatever.
[00:04:22]  No, that is like indicative of the moral character of the firefighter.
[00:04:27]  And like, you know, is he really going to be that motivated to save me?
[00:04:32]  Is he really going to be that courageous?
[00:04:33]  Is he really going to like have, you know, God in his heart or whatever?
[00:04:36]  And these are all important things and not things I just made up to cope with the fact we live in a dying world.
[00:04:43]  Yeah.
[00:04:44]  And like the situation we're in right now.
[00:04:46]  You need to be more worried if the firefighter has the equipment they need to save your life.
[00:04:53]  That's what you should be worried about them having, not their sexuality or orientation or anything like that.
[00:04:59]  That's going to be the problem now.
[00:05:01]  They were going to have an extra firefighter, but they had to paint the fire truck rainbow color, so they couldn't afford another firefighter.
[00:05:10]  Tony, I have seen that meme.
[00:05:13]  I would like to see a study of what could be done with all the cop cars that get priated out.
