=== Antifa's Soulless Violence (08:09) ===

[00:00:00]  These are lost souls who express their being lost in violence.
[00:00:05]  That's what they are.
[00:00:07]  If you actually met an Antifa person, you would meet a lost soul.
[00:00:12]  They don't know who they are, so they fill the void with fire and smashing and beating and cursing.
[00:00:25]  That's what they fill, the emptiness in their souls.
[00:00:29]  Why they're so soulless, only God knows.
[00:00:34]  Andy Ngo wrote a book.
[00:00:36]  Did we have Andy on for the book?
[00:00:41]  About what happened, about Antifa and Oregon.
[00:00:45]  By the way, this week's video at PragerU is about a guy who was in Antifa and left it.
[00:00:55]  I don't know at what point you say something has gone viral, but it seems to have gone viral.
[00:01:04]  in three days it already has a million views just on YouTube and that doesn't count the views directly on PragerU for example or Facebook so there's a band Mumford& Son.
[00:01:24]  Were you familiar with Mumford& Son, Sean?
[00:01:28]  Were you familiar with this band?
[00:01:30]  Because you know popular...
[00:01:31]  It's a big...
[00:01:33]  Mumford& Sons.
[00:01:35]  You're sure?
[00:01:36]  Yeah, Sons, you're right.
[00:01:37]  The headline is wrong.
[00:01:40]  So, the banjoist praised the book.
[00:01:45]  Where is this from?
[00:01:47]  I don't see the source.
[00:01:48]  But anyway.
[00:01:49]  Fox News.
[00:01:50]  Here we go.
[00:01:53]  Mumford& Sons banjoist Winston Marshall announced he would step away from the popular band after backlash over simply complimenting an anti-Antifa book by conservative author Andy Ngo.
[00:02:10]  I gathered it was Mumford& Sons.
[00:02:12]  You didn't have to tell me that.
[00:02:15]  I didn't think it was the Minnesota Orchestra.
[00:02:21]  Mumford and Sun Tzu, so here we go.
[00:02:23]  Oh, now listen to this.
[00:02:24]  The whole thing is so angering, what America has come to.
[00:02:31]  Guy endorses a book and loses his livelihood.
[00:02:34]  You know, had he endorsed a book by a communist, nothing would have happened.
[00:02:43]  By an avowed communist.
[00:02:49]  Over the past few days, I've come to better understand the pain caused by the book I endorsed.
[00:02:56]  That's what he wrote.
[00:02:57]  It's so sad.
[00:02:58]  This is the sad part.
[00:02:59]  This is the Chinese Cultural Revolution in America.
[00:03:07]  Not only doesn't it work, it's invalid.
[00:03:12]  What did he do that was wrong?
[00:03:14]  Andy Ngo wrote a book about thugs called Antifa.
[00:03:17]  If you can't say that the book is good, then the country has lost its moral bearings.
[00:03:24]  And it has.
[00:03:25]  It just has.
[00:03:26]  Half this country is morally blind.
[00:03:30]  If you can't call Antifa evil, then you do not qualify as a person with a conscience.
[00:03:38]  Okay?
[00:03:41]  It's that simple.
[00:03:46]  Over the past few days, I have come to better understand the pain caused by the book I endorsed.
[00:03:51]  I have offended not only a lot of people I don't know, but also those closest to me, including my bandmates, and for that I am truly sorry.
[00:04:02]  Then your bandmates stink.
[00:04:07]  But he can't come to that conclusion.
[00:04:12]  People attack you?
[00:04:15]  Because you liked a book that attacks Antifa?
[00:04:21]  Do you understand the sickness that we've come to in this country?
[00:04:24]  Everything the left touches, it ruins.
[00:04:26]  This is another example.
[00:04:28]  Mumford& Sons is composed of fools.
[00:04:31]  Gigantic, cowardly fools for getting on this guy.
[00:04:36]  They couldn't say, hey, he's a great guy.
[00:04:39]  Whether you like his book or not, we're playing, man.
[00:04:43]  Nah, you can't do that.
[00:04:45]  Money Uberalis.
[00:04:49]  I'm taking time away from the band to examine my blind spots, Marshall said in a statement.
[00:04:55]  For now, please know that I realize how my endorsements have the potential to be viewed as approvals of hatred and divisive behavior.
[00:05:11]  Hatred.
[00:05:13]  Yes, hatred of evil.
[00:05:16]  Tuesday, that was yesterday, my ultimate issues hour was Bible verses that are the opposite of the left.
[00:05:26]  And one of the biggest was, those of you who love God must hate evil.
[00:05:31]  If you don't hate evil, you don't love God.
[00:05:33]  If you don't hate Antifa, you don't love God.
[00:05:36]  Alright?
[00:05:37]  Because, how could you not see?
[00:05:43]  Well, it's a stupid question.
[00:05:48]  Masses of people have not seen evil in their time.
[00:05:52]  You know when they see evil?
[00:05:53]  When it's over.
[00:05:56]  Now everybody writes about how evil Ho Chi Minh was.
[00:06:00]  Now that's common.
[00:06:01]  You know, he was a Stalinist.
[00:06:04]  But during his time, people, my generation was chanting, Ho Ho Ho Chi Minh!
[00:06:11]  Ho Ho Ho Chi Minh!
[00:06:15]  The trick, my friends, is not to see evil from the past.
[00:06:18]  is to see evil in the present.
[00:06:21]  I realize how my endorsements have the potential to be viewed Do you understand?
[00:06:31]  All of these statements from Drew Brees to him, these statements the next day, this is Chinese cultural revolution.
[00:06:45]  Confessions.
[00:06:46]  That's it.
[00:06:46]  Confessions.
[00:06:47]  That's what they did.
[00:06:49]  These are forced confessions of BS. I apologize, as this was not at all my intention.
[00:07:02]  In a now-deleted tweet that sparked outrage, Marshall congratulated No for writing, quote, unmasked inside Antifa's radical plan to destroy democracy.
[00:07:13]  Marshall, who had less than 8,000 followers as of Wednesday morning, called the book important and praised the conservative author.
[00:07:23]  Finally had the time to read your important book, You're a Brave Man, Marshall wrote in the now-deleted tweet.
[00:07:29]  It appears he has deleted all of his previous tweets too, as only the apology remains on his timeline.
[00:07:37]  Everybody, this book should sell in the millions.
[00:07:45]  It has been a bestseller.
[00:07:47]  It has been a bestseller?
[00:07:48]  Is Amazon still carrying it?
[00:07:51]  Amazon doesn't even carry Clarence Thomas' documentary.

=== Report a Hater (00:49) ===

[00:07:56]  Isn't that astonishing?
[00:08:02]  Andy, no.
[00:08:03]  Noah spelled N-G-O. This is the way it works now for the left.
[00:08:09]  You can destroy, you can loot, you can arson, commit arson, you could burn police cars, you could destroy people's whole livelihoods, destroying their businesses.
[00:08:23]  And then if you report what they did, you're a hater.
[00:08:28]  You're divisive.
[00:08:30]  How's that, eh?
[00:08:33]  Allow us to destroy, but you may not say we're destroying.
[00:08:38]  Then you're a hater.
[00:08:41]  So much from Mumford& Sons.
