| Get your phone out and call us. | |
| 1-8 Prager 776. Now I want to, before we get into some of these calls, I want to finish. | |
| My thoughts from last one. | |
| And I've talked about on this show before about the majority versus the minority, that apparently people think that because they are in the majority, it makes them virtuous for being in that consensus. | |
| But what is wrong in America when you have this consensus of people is that people think that because you have this consensus, it makes you morally right. | |
| And what did we have in the 1930s in Nazi Germany? | |
| What did we have? | |
| Basically, every single doctor and every single medical institution in Germany Agreed with the Third Reich, and many of them, hundreds of them, joined the Nazis in their experimentation and the horrible things that the Nazis did. | |
| And those were doctors in Germany, okay? | |
| And so just because we have this group of doctors in America right now who say, oh, we all agree with this quote-unquote science and all this from the CDC and all that, does not mean that everything they are saying is true or even morally right, okay? | |
| So I just want people to look at it and say, when people come up to you and say, well, all these doctors agree and all these... | |
| All these people in my history class agree, and all these people in my work agree. | |
| That doesn't mean that they are right. | |
| And you can be a warrior by fighting against people who want to oppress you through their use of the majority, okay? | |
| Be a strong minority, as in the strongest individual who stands up for what they believe in. | |
| All right, let's get into some of these calls. | |
| Just had to finish that up because I thought I sounded pretty smart there. | |
| Okay, all right, let's get into Lynn from Los Angeles, California. | |
| Lynn. | |
| Hi there. | |
| How are you doing today? | |
| I'm wonderful, Lynn. | |
| Great. | |
| How are you? | |
| Doing okay, but feeling quite concerned. | |
| I'm here in the belly of the beast, Los Angeles, where the LA City Council, the County Board of Supervisors, LAUSD, are all voting for vaccine mandates for teachers, health care workers, state and federal employees, and in some cases children, school children. | |
| And it is very, very, I'll say there are a lot of people that are very frightened, don't know what to do, people who are literally being, who cannot be vaccinated for let's say medical reasons or religious belief reasons or they It's absolutely crazy, Lynn. | |
| Thank you, Lynn. | |
| Appreciate the call. | |
| It's a scary time. | |
| What I can say as a silver lining is that there's never been a better time to stand up and fight against this sort of stuff. | |
| And it's going to prove your character and your moral value if you do so. | |
| It is very easy to go with the grain and to submit to people and to do exactly what they say because your life will be easier. | |
| Your job isn't threatened. | |
| People aren't going to be mad at you and your community. | |
| But it's an even bigger feat to stand up and go against the grain and say, no, I'm not going to do that. | |
| And when you do so, later down the line, you'll be... | |
| So proud of yourself for doing that, for standing up. | |
| And you're also going to find that there's a large community of people who will back you up. | |
| Will and I know that. | |
| We're going to be attending a rally this Saturday. | |
| Will, you want to tell them about that? | |
| Yeah, we are. | |
| I'm speaking, and Amla is singing the national anthem, which she's nervous for, but she's going to do a fantastic job, at noon at 1615 Ocean Avenue. | |
| That's Tongva Park, I believe I'm saying that right, in Santa Monica, but it's 1615 Ocean Avenue. | |
| You can come meet me, come meet Amla, come hear me speak, and Amla is singing the national anthem. | |
| I hope to see every single Californian there, or Los Angeles, see in Los Angelino. | |
| Los Angelino. | |
| Yes, exactly. | |
| You know, whatever you guys are called. | |
| They're supporting us and showing that you aren't going to say no to this. | |
| And let's look at just, I mean, the vaccine mandates for teachers and for schools and everything, and then the mask mandates for kids going back to school. | |
| You understand that children have a 99.99% rate of survival from this virus, right? | |
| It is absolutely insane. | |
| What do the masks do? | |
| What do the masks do? | |
| Well, let's look at Afghanistan right now. | |
| now, when they're implementing Sharia law. | |
| They're putting women in these hijabs and the burqas, basically covering their face, so that they are not seen by other people, okay? | |
| So that people cannot understand them and see their nonverbal communications through the 42 muscles that you have in your face. | |
| What are you doing when you put children in these masks in their schools? | |
| You can't understand any of the nonverbal communication that is going on between children. | |
| So they're not able to communicate with each other. | |
| This is going to have detrimental effects on society and people growing up in America. | |
| For the unforeseeable future. | |
| It's going to be a travesty with this. | |
| You want to take another call, Will? | |
| Sure. | |
| Let's do it. | |
| Let's take another call. | |
| All right. | |
| Let's take Tony. | |
| Tony in Santa Clarita, California. | |
| Hello, Tony. | |
| Hey, Angelo. | |
| When you were a teenager and you were a radical leftist, and you said if someone offended you, you would get into their throat and start... | |
| If you were a boy and someone got violent with you, would you go complain? | |
| Or if you had a boyfriend who did the same and someone got violent with him, would you go complain? | |
| Because a verbal assault is an assault and you could combat it with violence if you have to. | |
| Oh, no, it wasn't really anything like that. | |
| It was more so when I was in school and I knew somebody was conservative, which was basically everybody growing up where I was. | |
| I would be the one who, in speech class, was going to give a five-minute speech on abortion or the legacy of slavery and why there are still remnants of racism, and I would do so in a very passionate and angry way. | |
| It was never any sort of aggression or assault that I experienced, although I would have probably told everybody that it was because I was a... | |
| I'm a leftist, and that's what they do. | |
| But I was always sort of well-tempermented, but, yeah, always tried to be kind. | |
| No, Amela used to go and give the conservative kids wedgies. | |
| Give them swirlies after class. | |
| Yeah, if you saw my little noodle arms, you would know that that's not the case. | |
| All right, let's take one more call. | |
| We're going to take it from Joe from Chicago, Illinois. | |
| What's going on, Joe? | |
| Hey guys, great show. | |
| Really impressed by your guys' opinions and knowledge. | |
| I'm a 57-year-old white male, live in Chicago, and I used to love Chicago. | |
| Born and raised here, it has turned into really just a hellhole. | |
| And my problem in my calling, it was more related to Amala... | |
| I find myself fighting racism that I never had before. | |
| As I'm being shoved down my throat, we have a mayor, we have... | |
| It is everywhere, Joe. | |
| I appreciate it. | |
| Thank you for the call, Joe. | |
| The racism is real, and it is real on the side of being a white male in America, and it's a really tough thing to have to grapple with, while at the same time the mainstream media is telling us that black people are oppressed, that Hispanic people are oppressed, that Asian people are oppressed. | |
| There is no sympathy for the white male in this nation, and we talk about that more at PragerU. | |
