=== New Atheists Awakening (02:11) ===

[00:00:00]  Hey guys, it's been a little while since I've done one of these walk-in talks.
[00:00:03]  So first off, a couple updates.
[00:00:05]  Number one, looks like our OraTV debut Reuben Report on OraTV will be September 9th.
[00:00:12]  They're building an awesome set.
[00:00:13]  I'm really excited to show you guys the set and everything that we're going to be up to.
[00:00:16]  Really cool.
[00:00:17]  Number two, it looks like We are going to the Republican debate on September 16th.
[00:00:22]  Yeah, if they let me in, it looks like we're going.
[00:00:24]  So we got some cool stuff planned for that.
[00:00:27]  And now what I wanted to talk about today was the reaction to the videos that we did with Gadsad.
[00:00:34]  About a week and a half ago right now.
[00:00:36]  I thought the response was absolutely freaking incredible.
[00:00:40]  I think there is an actual awakening going on in the left.
[00:00:43]  This thing that I was talking about with political correctness and you know restraining from free speech and all this other bullshit and lying and smearing
[00:00:51]  people and all of this stuff that has had me so frustrated for like eight or
[00:00:55]  ten months. The reaction to it in the YouTube comments look right down
[00:00:59]  below in any of those videos and on Twitter what I was getting on Facebook people
[00:01:03]  were emailing me and you got to do a little research if you're gonna find my
[00:01:07]  email address and the reaction was amazing people were saying this is what I've
[00:01:10]  been waiting for people that are on the left that are trying to stand up
[00:01:14]  for liberal principles for gay rights and women's rights and economic
[00:01:18]  equality and all the things that liberals purport to believe in we're finally
[00:01:22]  saying wow somebody's actually saying this and on top of everything else you know
[00:01:26]  this thing about atheists that somehow atheists
[00:01:29]  have been under attack.
[00:01:30]  And as I said in the interview with Gad, atheists hold no power.
[00:01:34]  Atheists, there's this whole idea that these new atheists are so awful.
[00:01:37]  These new atheists, as my friend Kyle Kalinske said, new atheists are just atheists that are finally saying they're okay with being atheists.
[00:01:45]  Atheists have pretty much been on the good side of everything and believe in science and reason and all that stuff.
[00:01:50]  Anyway, my point in this is that there is an awakening going on.
[00:01:53]  This is what the internet can do.
[00:01:54]  I can feel it.
[00:01:55]  And I think you guys can feel it too, and that's why the response was so good.
[00:01:58]  So let's keep saying the things we believe in.
[00:02:00]  Keep standing up for what's right.
[00:02:02]  Stand up for reason and rationality and those liberal principles.
[00:02:06]  And then how about, and we'll start dragging the people on the left that have gone off the deep end, how about we bring them back to sanity?
