I live in in San Francisco and it’s the worst😭 I can’t wait to leave this woke nightmare. I’ve lost multiple friends because my political beliefs. This channel honestly gives me hope that there are normal people somewhere out there
I used to have to go there for my daughter's appointments, now her doctors are in LA. Still bad, but not as bad. I personally could never live in either city though. I'm more of a small town guy anyway. There's definitely way better places with normal people, even here in Corruptifornia. Move to one of the areas that always vote red and you'll see a world of difference.
When I was pregnant my 1st pre-natal provider asked for my consent to do the exam. Why would I be there if I wasn’t going to consent? It was so weird. She also had a rainbow pin. I changed providers before we got into a fight over the gender reveal appointment. I had to leave my therapist because when I told him I was excited to be having a daughter he told me not to get too excited because I don’t know what gender she will actually end up being.
I literally let an old woman call me "Amy" because for some reason that's what she kept doing. My name is NOT Amy, its ABBY, but it really wasn't that big a deal. It wasn't disrespectful. She was an old lady and probably a little deaf. It didn't kill me or change my identity to be AMY for the twenty minutes or so we talked. People are such oversensitive babies these days. A man i know literally threw a whiny temper tantrum because i said I didn't like his best friend, like we were in high school; I'm in my thirties, the doofus his fifties. Where did all the adults in this world go?
❤ i used to get called a Jessica a lot. My brother went by Jesse and people would assume im Jessica. Not even close. I guess i look as pretty as a Jessica does❤ thats how I took it.
@@teamtundra2619 basically, if you're willing to accept something somebody says without questioning them, eventually you're going to just accept anything they tell you, no matter how absurd it might be.
year it sounds like come try f .. with me and see .. let´s make a club , the bleach demon gang and get some hotties and stuff , we are born racist so let´s have some fun as mayonnaise monsters , uhh we need a jingle 🎶
It boggles me people are normalising it. Its not a relationship at all if its open, it's roommate with benefits. Esp in the gay world, our dating pools are dire where their so effin woke, but then there's also the fact is I. Worth the time to bother If they're just going to want to open it. Adultery with extra BS Imo.
I've been told J K Rowling is transphobic by 200+ ppl online. Not one can quote anything in her essay that is transphobic. Everything she wrote in it about prisons and affirmative care was spot on and hopefully we are starting to turn back the tide.
even south park which was liberal as hell back in its heyday was making fun of hollywood junk so if the super hippie south park people are making fun of it imagine how pissed off moderates are
@@sophiacalon3463 That's why when I see someone use the word "dogwhistle" nowadays I go and read what the person actually said. It seems to mean "inconvenient truth that affects the holy word of trans" (or insert other ideology). These are the same ppl who think "I'm not going to read that" means they are right and should win a prize.
Mischa, "mankind" really is old-fashioned. Humankind is more like it. If you think this is woke, it isn't. It's just sense. If we are going to use one gender then let's have "womankind" as woman contains man. No? Why not?
I was at a rehabilitation department of a mental hospital for depression that led to a psychotic episode. It was the first time I literally encountered a blue haired woke girl, who wanted to transition. (I'm not from the states). What I found most disturbing was that the occupational therapists asked everyone to refer to her as "him". So.. my delusions about being someone that I'm not was bad, but for another girl to think that she's a man, which she clearly wasn't - that's fine and everyone should go along with it? It's a freaking mental hospital. They helped me with my delusions and at the same time they reinforce someone else's? Like what the hell was that? I only realized how bizzare this was a while after I got out of there. I didn't think much about wokeism at the time, I just wanted to be nice to others. What happened to "just be yourself", and not caring about what others think? It's like everything turned upside down now, and your identity is now solely based on how others see and call you.. You used to be able to just be a feminine guy or a masculine girl.. now you can't. Thank god I was born in '96, otherwise instead of being a little emo as a teen I'd be a big idiot.
So true. We live in a world where delusions are being appreciated and the truth is forbidden. People can't be themselves anymore, and create dozens of labels instead. It's so much worse now than 20 years ago where subcultures just meant being creative, not changing your orientation and gender identity.
Holy shite. 🤯🫨 new fear unlocked. If this happened to me in a mental hospital I wouldn’t know up from down 😂 like “how am I the most sane in this situation?!” 😮. “No mamm that is a man…” 😅 someone would have to up my meds for me to see that. Omg what a horrific situation.
You don't "embrace" mental health problems. You deal with them. They are not an excuse for bad behaviour and being lazy. I've delt with depression and anxiety since my teens. Possibly have undiagnosed ADHD. I'm learning how to hack my brain to do the things that are hard and deal with my emotional disregulation. I've used a combination of medication and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy over the years. It's really hard, but I'm no quitter. I refuse to be a victim.
Exactly. These self-diagnosing people are actually doing so much harm to those of us who have legitimate reasons to ask our providers for help on getting diagnosed. I’m suspected to have ADHD, but not because I exhibit laziness-that’s not ADHD. Brain maps and physical reactions to certain things that are supposed to alter my energy level have made me wonder, on top of having plenty of the more mundane symptoms. Even then, I wouldn’t care enough to go get a diagnosis or talk to providers about this being a potential issue if it wasn’t a plausible cause for my paradoxical insomnia. I asked my sleep specialist if we could look into ADHD treatments because _nothing_ was working, or if he could offer some kind of referral to someone who would know, and he basically brushed me off. I’m a teenager wondering if I have ADHD, because of people like the girl in that post, we aren’t and really can’t be taken seriously.
We really should start a "Not the Victim" movement to upheave bs lies about those who broke laws and their only excuse was either "teehee, I'm autistic" or "I'm a Aquarium, I get angsty on mondays"
@@DannyDevitoOffical-TrustMeBro if you're still looking for treatment, best thing i can recommend is more exercise and practicing sleep hygiene. I'm in the same boat, diagnosed adhd and horrible insomnia and i tend to sleep better after exercise. Sleep hygiene is having at least a vague bedtime and not using your phone in bed so the brain only associates being there with resting.
Sometimes embracing and dealing with is kind of the same thing. If you ignorere them to "deal with" them you dont learn anything and the same thing happens again and again. If you embrace them, that could mean actually getting better. It kind of depends on how you use the words. I embrace my illness now, and by that I mean i am very very awear of the fact that if i sleep too little, I get delusions. Earlier i tried to "deal with it" and by that I mean living as a normal person. If I went to bed too late because I was Reading on a test, I thought "well normal people push through so I have to deal with it and just push through too!", and then I got delusions and destroyed my friendships and didnt finish school. Now I would embrace it, and that would look like this: ok, I didnt read enough, but I have to go to bed now because I now know that no matter what I think now, my mind will be different with a huge lack of sleep and doing good on a test wont help me if I get crazy and drop out.
Art and English student from Germany here 👋 and I gotta say this combination is where MAANYY of the woke students assemble and I feel out of place. I have a drawing class which is where most stuff happens. 1. This red-haired girl would come to my seat and tell me that she liked my drawing which was nice. I wanted to return a compliment and followed her to her seat and asked some questions about her current drawing which was a full body portrait. So I was like 'oh okay and btw what is she holding in her hand?' und she suddenly screamed 'WHY DOES EVERYONE GENDER MY DRAWING?!?!' and I was like.... It's just a drawing not a person calm tf down. Then one other time several woke students were philosophizing about stealing, more specifically how they would be accepting of people who would food steal out of hunger (which for the most part I can have compassion for as well) but then they went on to say 'well I should be able to steal a little battery or light bulb so my home can be a little lit up to feel a bit of happiness😢' and where wondering where the boundary would be. I said that I would feel compassionate for the hungry & homeless and that I would not necessarily snitch if I saw them stealing in a super market or sth. However I made it clear that I did not agree with stealing at all in general and that there are better ways to get what you need. Especially in Germany where you can get support (donations and financial support by the state). Then this red-haired girl joined the conversation and went so extreme as to say 'well what if I get bullied at school because I don't have this jacket from this specific brand? I should be able to steal it not matter what for my own good'.... I was like.. No that is not a necessity and then she accused me of not allowing other people the same degree of happiness as myself 😂I am not near anywhere rich lol. Needless to say, many woke discussions arise in this drawing class and I always have to bite my tongue not to say out loud that I absolutely disagree with almost everything they say
So glad to not be going to art school. There is this girl in my class who is going to art school and she is the definition of a woke drone. She has these fucking preprogrammed responses to everything. In mother tongue class we read a poem about a hard working man who never lost his faith in God despise the dying crops. His wife kept insisting to stop being faithful, but he just worked harder. In the end they were blessed by a supremely bountiful harvest. Moral of the story was to be patient, work hard, and trust in God. The teacher encouraged us to have a discussion and to describe the man. The girl called him stupid. The teacher, dumbfounded, asked why. She said: "putting in 0 effort and expecting for a man in the sky to work for you is stupid. Be responsible for your own success". The teacher was gobsmacked and after a bit of silence said "but he didn't depend on God. He kept working harder and harder!". The girl went silent and didn't respond. Another class we were doing a project on Seitsemän Veljestä (Seven Brothers) and I was assigned to work with that same girl. We were to make a comic on a scene from the book of our choosing. After a while it was my time to colour the comic, and... she hadn't drawn any clothes or line art for that matter. She didn't even clean the sketch! Hesitatingly I told her that we should give them clothes because otherwise they look naked, and the teaher may not liー "There is nothing wrong with nude art" I was confused as all hell. I explaines again that it is a school project that'll go onto the wall for the whole school to see and that the teacher may not like the characters being naked. She shrugged in silence and drew nothing. Eventually she said "look, we'll make the other guy blue. See? Not naked." She has a few piercings and her WhatsApp profile picture is borderline porn. 15 years old and her PFP is a picture of her in nothing but a very low bra revealing her... ehem... cleavage. She never smiles or sounds happy.
She's a liberal but not far left enough for them. She supports trans, but not to the point of putting bio. male offenders in with female prisoners. Modern " wavy feminism" tells women to sit down and shut up about their rights in favor of anyone who's more "marginalized".
@@3namechangezalowdevry90day7I find more hilarious that the same people cry and moan over "men pretending to be women" at job fairs and "invading their spaces"... Sis, you literally said that never happens. 😂 You "cancelled" J.K. Rowling for suggesting that exact scenario in the first place. They honesrly deserve everything they get. Even J.K. She was part of those opening the door to this brainrot.
even though i disagree with her politically, since im a conservative, i still admire her a great deal and have a lot of respect for her. I grew up with harry potter and will always love her for that.
Short story time! I have a close friend, she’s always leaned left while I’be always leaned right, but we’re genuine friends and we don’t let our political opinions get in the way of our friendship. We occasionally have friendly debates on lighter topics and we’ve both learned a great deal from each other. All in all, a great friendship. I recently met a friend of hers and well… let’s just say this friend wasn’t as great as she is. The friend was non-binary and used neopronouns. I, out of respect for my friend, obliged in using they/them but would not use neopronouns. My friend was totally okay with that and actually told me that she thought the concept of neopronouns was stupid. Well, the friend of my friend heard me use they in reference to them, and they flipped out. They started outright screaming at me and calling me a bigot, transphobe, homophobe, sexist, basically all the words. I just kinda… laughed at them. I didn’t really know how to respond and it was genuinely funny (albeit horrifying) that this person was screaming at me over something so meaningless. My laughter of course, made them more angry so I just walked away. To my surprise, my friend was actually really cool about it. Probably because we’ve been friends for a LONG time and she basically agrees with me on the neopronoun subject. It was just a really strange occurrence, thankfully it didn’t happen in a particularly public place…
What a good friend and it shows that even with different opinions you can be friends. Both just need to be open minded and respectful. The other friend there is definitely not open minded or respectful. When you walk around with bitterness and hate in your heart you can't have healthy debates and will always have bitter and hateful friends who drive you deeper
man i wish i could meet more liberal types of people who weren't crazy. i like having friends with differing opinions as it forces me out of my comfort zone and make me try to understand different worldviews even if i don't agree with it. far left people i can't even talk to as the second you give an opinion they don't agree with they INSTANTLY turn on you there was this nice lady at a diner in my small town and she seemed somewhat liberal but very nice. we had a conversation or a while that was polite and civil about random junk, i start talking about my struggles as a christian in modern colleges, and the SECOND i mention my college teacher hating Christianity she does a 180, says she completely agrees with my teacher and says religion is used oppress people, and added on that 'everything you'd said in this conversation was descriminatory' basically calling me racist
glad you're still cool with your friend. i had friends there were my buds for over 10 years and I thought we were close. but they stopped talking to me because I didn't agree with removing the electoral college (though do agree it may need to be reworked but not removed) and I didn't think a group of teenage boys (the Covington kids) were evil white men that caused a problem directly and should be wipped from the face of the earth..and mind you we're in our 30s/40s. i mean holy crap.
i have a liberal friend and I’m more conservative. She and i get along well and we poke fun at how extreme leftists and the alt right are. Most of my liberal/centrist friends know i lean more conservative as well and don’t care.
I'm glad you kept your left-leaning friend. I had to break off friendship with a right-leaning guy because he kept calling me a moron because I didn't agree with him on who to vote. He wanted me to vote for one specific guy amongst the 7 political parties of our country, and if I didn't vote for that one single guy, I was a "fucking idiot" - his words, because I told him it didn't matter who you voted for as long as it respected your personnal convictions. Crazy people in all sides of the political spectrum, I suppose.
"is there anything that you would accept as proof" is exactly what you ask to cult members when questioning their beliefs, and the answer is invariably NO
After a quick self-examination, I realized that I would need to hear new information that I didn't know before and couldn't refute to change my stances. For example, someone recently pointed out that one of my views had a flaw. They were polite, and they had a good point. They even had an alternate solution that I now like even more.
I had a group of friends who basically disowned me. I was always left-leaning, but apparently some of my opinions are considered conservative now since it’s gotten so extreme. First off, the first time I got Covid, I quarantined for the mandated 10 days and masked 5 days after that… I asked my friends to hangout after completing the quarantine. They said I needed to test negative first. Tests had gotten expensive and I didn’t have money for another, so I said that and that the CDC website states you can test positive for 3 months afterwards, but it’s not contagious after the 10 days… they said I was being too pushy by stating these things, and that my “selfish inconsiderate behavior” was endangering their lives. Fast foreword over a year later, one of the friends (who is also no longer part of the group) said she was uncomfortable with drag because it mocked women. I simply said I saw where she was coming from. I have no problem with modern drag for adults, but it did originate as a minstrel show making fun of working women in Ireland. Anyway, they said my “playing devils advocate” was dangerous. Then I was honest and admit I was mainly uncomfortable with drag for kids, because it’s inappropriate, and that I was troubled by the explicit LGBTQ books for kids depicting s3xual intercourse! This was somehow also “dangerous conservative rhetoric”?? I feel like my opinions are very mild! But they all thought I was somehow endangering their lives.
There was a "drag queen army" in Jerusalem in 70AD but they were more like a well armed gang. They fought against general Titus and were the reason the temple burned down. Those mystery religions from Babylon lead to some crazy behavior.
Damn - sorry your friends fell / are falling for the BS. FYI the NY Times did an article in early (early) 2020 citing the professors of Harvard Epidemiology & the cycle thresholds of those tests. The "positive test" numbers were used to shutdown & bankrupt small businesses & scare people. I have a link if you are interested & can video a hard copy if it no longer works.
Buddy, drag has been around since before Shakespeare, because women were not allowed to be actors. There was a joke in the day that on the internet the men were men and the women were men. That joke is actually true for actors in the middle ages. It wasn't "to make fun of women" it was women weren't allowed to participate at all.
@@therealfriday13th buddy, drag is its own very specific performance and is separate from men simply dressing up as women for a role. You don’t know what you’re talking about.
I have adhd and I don’t live in garbage. Chores are harder to do than others due to starting level of dopamine compared to others but they get done eventually enough so that I live in a clean home. Embracing adhd just to me means accepting that I have it and becoming aware of myself when I notice the symptoms (doesn’t always work) and trying to alter the actions or inaction it is causing. Meds don’t really help. Only thing that helped was going keto.
ADHD too, my space can get pretty cluttered because I'm constantly jumping from project to project, but I have NEVER let garbage build up. Food is immediately taken care of so nothing rots, etc.
I take meds for my ADHD and compared to when I first started taking them, they now make me feel sick and make my heart rate spike to 130-140. Also how’s the keto diet? I have epilepsy and have been told that keto is a great treatment option outside of medication. And I agree, I’ve learned to embrace having adhd and dealing with the symptoms, but now I just learn how to embrace it via lifestyles and different techniques
As a conservative lesbian, dating is hell lmao and I hate being put into the same pot as all of those woke crazies. The current condition of the lgbt community is sad. And I'm gonna be honest. It all started with the gender bullshit.
Same, I am conservative gay. What they do is conversion therapy. I am gay because I want men, why on earth would I be attracted to a girl who calls herself he him. It's crazy
I agree! It also feels that if you don't agree with their bs, they treat you as a pariah of the community. I also really hate the amount of hate they tend to give the straight community, and (white) men often get it even worse. They present themselves as tolerant but are the most intolerant people you will even speak to.
In my first year of university we had a seminar about right-wing politics (I study psychology) i.e they named and shamed Ben Shapiro and Jordan peterson. This proceded with a (one sided) debate about gender netural bathrooms and how if you're a woman and agaisnt trans women in the bathroom it means ur a bigot. I proceeded to state that men have a greater bone structure and muscle mass therefore I would not feel safe. The seminar leader who was a 6ft 7 man stood over me and stated "thats just not true, men dont have those characteristics, youve just made that up.", we then proceeded to argue about the topic. The man was in his late 40's early 50's
Huh. I'm suprised your country even has politics included at all into the seminars. I'm doing nursing degree rn and our psychology didn't have any politics in it, it was just practical things we would need to talk to patients etc
@@wlodek7422It honestly depends the college. I won’t name where I go, but the Honors program is very woke. The rest of the college is not as woke, and it seems to divide honors and non-honors students. I haven’t taken any psychology classes (I’m a mechanical engineering student..) but I have heard from others it changes depending on what program you or the teacher is from.
I consider myself center-right and have a friend who is a self-proclaimed leftist. I've been able to keep our friendship mainly because there are certain topics of conversations I try to avoid with him, one of them being anything LGBTQ-related. Once I made the mistake of telling him when I was a preteen, I (a female) wished I could be a boy because I had a lot more masculine interests than feminine (and still do). I told him I've come to understand better over the years that girls can still like more stereotypically masculine things, but instead, he said excitedly, "Aww, so you're non-binary!" That really got under my skin.
Non-binary isn't a gender identity, it's a political identity. You're right being annoyed about someone else trying to force you into an ideological box
It's amazing how you manage to look back on your old self and be honest about your old mindset. Like you're not afraid to admit you were narrow minded back then. You've clearly grown into such a great human being. Love your videos, Misha 👍
@anie7254 true, but I also have a feeling that society is also so afraid of another potential Nazi dictatorship like in ww2 that we have a preoccupation with leftist thinking, so allowing these activists to warp things in the name of 'compassion'. If we're not careful, far left extremism would dominate more than it even does now
@anie7254 and yeah I've also mellowed out myself a bit now. I've come to realise that things are more complex than we think, so my political views are a mixture of left and right. For instance, I don't agree with abortion (I'm 'pro-life') except if the woman or baby (or both) are at any kind of medical risk, or rape is involved
10:03 This is the reason for the gender hysteria: childhood trauma induced by growing up in an environment where identity formation was either difficult or impossible, especially in matters of gender. My first language is French - a gendered language. A strict gender language with only two genders: male and female. Every word has a gender to us. So, as a child, I've always had the ability to overlook it. I could play with whatever I wanted and would use anything to fit my purposes - boy or girl toy, it never made a difference to me and I was never once berrated for it. It never crossed my mind that I was in the wrong because nobody cared. I still love berry picking, landscaping and botany. Nobody ever gave a fuck.
@@DiscipleOfHeavyMeta1 not nearly on the level of berry picking while listening to metal, but it's very common to find me playing something like HL2, Doom or Halo (before it went to shit) in a dress I'm a girl btw thought to make that clear
boy oh boy finnish doesn't have a single word in the language that's gendered (except boy and girl etc ofc) and the alphabet mafia instead get upset that they can't be specifically gendered in words
Funny enough this whole video reminds me of an argument I had with one of my friend. I told him that I dont believe non-binary people exist because theres no such thing as having no gender. I kept coming up with arguments while my friend's only argument was "you are talking like a boomer right now", saying it over and over whenever I came up with something new to say
Ah, yes, the classic "I have no more arguments, or I feel so entitled that I do not need to justify or quantify my points with any actual evidence, so instead I will result to calling you names that, while not inherently bad (so that I can pretend I'm not insulting you if you bring it up) are names that I have associated consistently with negative beliefs like nazism." Seriously, these groups of people have associated boomers (most of which these people have no consistent contact with and who almost certainly don't even use the internet because they're literally all like 80 years old or dead rn) with the wildest shit. Being called a boomer is just being called a racist nazi homophobe who is actively working to collapse the economy out of spite for young people, just with less words.
This is what I replied to another comment with. I don’t understand how people have such a small grasp on their own language that they don’t understand how the language evolved.
I'm pretty sure refusing to employ someone simply because of their sexual preference is illegal. It is here in the UK. Why are there so many people who are incapable of reversing the logic of something to see if they'd accept someone saying it about them?
Because using logic and thinking is something a lot of people lack. Think of the average person and then remember half of the people are below that point. It’s sad but being logical isn’t important to many anymore, the only thing that matters is winning arguments.
the "is it okay if I touch you" is something I do all the time, working with actors for theatrical productions, cause they gonna lose their mind if the audio technician approaches to fix microphone alignment and then fixes the microphone alignment
i grew up in a family where they were pretty strict and to this day i flinch hard if someone touches me from behind and im not ready for it, so i get you on that
I work with young people from ages 10 - 21. The recording of those British girls questioning about cat identity made all the woke kids furious and said that everyone should respect everyone’s identity. Even though I have a no politics rule, my fellow employees encouraged it and practically we were forced to discuss it. Let’s just say I lost hope for certain people because I sort of died on the inside during their discussion.
It’s a hypothetical discussion they’re having, watch the clip again. Cat student never existed it’s a “what if” extreme debate scenario. Still nuts tho
my sister has a furry at her middle school, the type with cat ears and acting strangely. normally i don't support bullying but my sister says she terrorizes this girl for acting so crazy and honestly im for it because without shame and negative reactions this furry kid is going to grow up thinking those types of actions are perfectly acceptable, which is what her teachers are already telling her im sure.
I dated this girl for about a month, and we hit it off immediately, she's smart and very beautiful, and we had great chemistry, I was excited about pursuing it further, and we would start seeing each other almost every day or whenever we could. She graduated college with a degree in philosophy and was about to graduate with her master's from one of the most prestigious law schools in the country. we were able to have deep talks and I don't shy away from an interesting conversation (we debated the death penalty on our first date). In our initial debate, I stated that somebody who rapes and/or murders may deserve this penalty, but I don't believe the taxpayer should pay to kill individuals when it's in fact cheaper to keep them alive to reflect on their deeds. She stated that we should not even take them to prison, and said that even if someone raped and killed her 'it is done' and nobody will be helped by him being jailed, especially because rape and murder are effects of 'this country's history of slavery and racism', to which I asked 'did your country have the same history of slavery? her: no, me: do they have rape and murder? Her: yes, Me: ok so that isn't why.... she immediately dropped it. Literally, nobody in philosophy or law school has questioned these ideas. On another instance, we spoke about how her building was in a dangerous neighborhood, and she knew I was concerned for her safety, she said it was not as bad as her friend's and preceded to tell me how every time she goes to visit her best friend, there is a homeless man who screams how he wants to do *crimes* to both of them and that he often even follows them and is a dangerous person who always harasses them. I said 'Hey, you should call the police' and her response was 'I don't want to put his life in danger'.... what about you, your friend, and all the innocent people of that neighborhood? She asked me to drop it. I want to point out that she's now graduating from one of the most prestigious law schools in the country, she will practice law, and maybe even be a judge or politician, writing law and affecting the country at large.... believing these rapists and murderers are as she said: "literally like my babies". I want to stress one more point, I'm a pretty traditional guy, and she seemed to really like my traditional, protective attitude towards her, all while she tells me how she would never date a conservative (GOTCHA), so she would literally leave this mindset if people in her PHILOSOPHY school where allowed to question and explore ideas as her values actually are very similar to my own.
You are not alone. Its an experience many of my male friends and me had, sad if the guy starts taking over the thinking. What frigtens me the most, as a german I know national socialism works. Rewriting history, dehumanizing groups, putting the state above all. I really try to understand them and ask them to explain their position step by step and really try to help them sort their thoughts. And the focus of american politics even if you live in europe is sick. Here in germany we had universal voting for both genders only after WW1, before we had an emperor. But still male only mandatory service for till 2011. The last one started conversations, always wanted to be respected for her degrees in art therapy, but I told her, I studied political science and I really looked into all positions and yeah I ask before hand: "Is your mind already set or are there any information that could change it" "Can I have different political views and still be a good person, have good intentions?" "Are you tolerant? How much different can a worldview be to yours and you would still support the person?" She didnt like the fact, that she is extremely intolerant to everything that didnt support her fully in her views...
@@westphalianstallion4293 "i am very tolerant of other views, just don't have it in a radius of two light years from me" or something like that, right?
She sounds just like that couple from New York, who were both apart of the left and fought for "minorities to not be singled out or imprisoned for committing any crimes" and then the man in the relationship tried talking to a crazed homeless black man and got stabbed to death in front of the woman. Who then preceded to argue for not pressing charges against her boyfriends murderer, due to "not wanting to endanger his life" 😂😂 absolute imbeciles the lot of them
I am presently looking for a new job and I can’t tell you how many interviews I have had where the person or people interviewing me announced their pronouns and expected me to do the same. I even had one interview where the hiring team wanted me to agree that we live in a White Supremacy culture.

My older brothers disagree with me and my parents on a lot of things politically, they've both stepped away from the church we go to and one is an atheist now. (and we don't judge them for it, they have their own choice) but it's crazy to see how it's formed his thoughts. If we bring up anything about the transgender or nonbinary things, they act all offended. My sister agrees with me on some things, but she's leaning more towards how every swiftie thinks and every time I tell he she doesn't need to think exactly like taylor swift to be a fan of her, she gets mad but I see it happening slowly. Though, she's not as far as my brothers and still agrees with me and my parents on some things, but not everything.
i swear atheists for me are either the most enlightened people ever who are trying out ideals like absurdism or daoism or eastern asian belief systems to find their place in this world or are the most obxnious toxic religion hating people i know.
I live in Eugene, Oregon, which is about two hours away from Portland and….wow. Misha, your videos are just about the only thing that brings some levity to my political situation. You are so entertaining and bring in a no-BS attitude. Thank you for making great videos!
I worked in Portland 13 years ago (lived in Beaverton). That place was hippy goofball, for sure, but nowhere near the dumpster fire Portland is today. Coming from Philly, I found Portland to be pretty and safe and clean. The "homeless" back then were rich kids from the burbs sitting on the sidewalk with signs that said "Need bong money". Pretty harmless. Today, that whole city seems psychotic. I would love to go back to OR just to see the coast again, but now I hear there are tents popping up on Cannon Beach, of all places. Such a beautiful state and those dumb wokies are just hell bent on destroying it 💔
It's spilling into Washington as well there not in the forest in the hills and mountains yet but I still have to go to the city for stuff and socializing, it gets worse every time I used to go to Portland for the bars and live music until they got bold enough to start smashing car windows.
I visited Portland in 1999 and it was vastly different than it is today. Super clean, damn great public transportation, kinda hippy but nothing too outlandishly insane yet. I enjoyed my time there, the people were so nice to a southern boy. What I've seen lately... I doubt I'll return for quite a while.
oh man, I know exactly how the first person feels. I've walked into a bathroom to find a homeless guy passed out on the floor. Horrifying, and I'm a 6'3" 210 lb man. I can only imagine how a girl would feel if she was in the same situation
Personally that's why I'm agaisnt bathroom bills? I have a lot of trans men friends and I wouldn't want them in the bathroom with me. They may be biologically females but they look fully male :(
Exactly this! I'm a 5'1 string bean of a woman who was constantly warned growing up that a strong wind would blow me away, and that shit is terrifying. But I also don't think that the standards for how either of us, despite our huge size disparity, deal with those situations should be different. If I could reasonably argue leaving the situation, or shooting someone if they attacked me, you should be able to do the same. The expectation that's placed on men, especially larger dudes, is insane. There is absolutely no reason that you should put yourself in an incredibly more compromising situation just because you have a better chance of actually subduing someone without a gun. Like, can you probably put a random homeless dude who attacks you into a chokehold and end the altercation with both of you living? Sure, and you could probably do it with a way higher success rate than I could. *But you shouldn't be expected to.* Because then you're also risking a wide variety of infections, needle sticks, being attacked with a concealed weapon like a knife, etc. They made their choice when they chose to attack you, and you have no responsibility to them or anyone else to spare them just because society views you as more capable of doing so.
I once went to a BLM protest to see if it would challenge some of my negative preconceptions of the group, and it most certainly did. Now I hate it even more. The experience honestly wasn't that bad, and it was more entertaining than hurtful, but still, I was surprised at how bad of a job the woman I spoke to did at convincing me of the rightness of her cause. Note to anyone reading this: don't be rude to people you want to join your side. It doesn't make them think you're worth listening to.
BLM is like PETA. Like who wouldn’t think black lives don’t matter and who would support the ethical treatment of animals? And yet what they support is extremist in nature. Great marketing though because of the acronym
@@MrJefferson07 I'd say those are wise words, but nonetheless, if you are serving a cause that you believe is just, wouldn't you want more people to support it? I'm not suggesting that we should be indoctrinating anyone, but I think there should be a balance between the two extremes. Balance is usually the correct answer.
'Mankind' means 'HUMANITY' not 'Only men'. Which includes men and women at the same time. Friggin hell, those people don't understand basic English do they?
This reminds me of something that happened to me today. I was in the McDonald’s drive-through on my way to work . There’s a sweet older lady who works at the window where you pay. She said “hello young lady, you don’t mind me calling you that right? ” I said “no, I don’t mind” (I am in fact a young lady lol) Then she said “someone tried to get me fired for saying that” I said “that is INSANE. People are too sensitive these days” I felt so bad for her, she’s so kind and didn’t deserve that
During the lockdowns, my sister worked for Chick Fil A. She was walking orders out to the waiting cars, the food on trays. Because of the lockdowns, she wasn’t supposed to hand the food to people herself, but offer out the tray and then take it back once it was unloaded. However, one lady she served in a big van had a very big order, so the tray was too heavy for her by herself. My sister helped her handle it as she took food off. This woman was white, which should be irrelevant…except that some entitled narcissist with a race card and a vendetta saw my sister held the tray for the other lady and helped her take food off,but when it was the black woman’s turn to get her *two bags* off the tray, my sister didn’t help her. Seriously, she scolded my sister in the parking lot for being “racist” because she was too pathetic to dream of possibly having to lift her own hands to grab her own two bags of food herself. Cry me a river lady, what privilege.
That girl in the relationship story is such a mess. How can she decide that her bf isn't a man anymore just because he doesn't fit her horrible stereotypes? I thought respecting people's gender identities was supposed to be one of the most important things.
Hi, first of all, I'd like to thank you for all the great work you're doing, providing a voice of sanity in the world of today. I watched plenty of your videos and wanted to share my story. Truth be told, it's not as much why I left the left, it's how the left left me. Years ago, I've been a centre-left liberal. I still support same-sex marriage, and my views on abortion align neither with the left, nor the right. Anyway, I slightly "overslept" the emergence of wokeism, it's been a non-issue to me. I was oblivious of the gender ideology. I didn't notice that until the winter of 2020/2021. I met a girl through Tinder. No bio, normal photos that did not suggest anything wrong. In conversation, she presented herself as a liberal, there was no woke stuff involved. We've grown close, and while she did have some depression issues, I didn't want to push her away. I have experienced heavy depression, and so I felt for her. I didn't yet know that my compassion would be my undoing. My being helpful in time she spinned into me implying she's weak. Her being vegetarian turned into an attack on me, that my not beint one makes me morally inferior. Her next targets were my good manners, like letting her through the door first. I have very traditional manners, I let ladies through the door first with a slight bow, even - as is the gentlemantly way. I was billed a specimen of toxic masculinity and patriarchy. She started reacting negatively to simple physical contact, claiming it's an invasion of her personal space. Of course, I've been growing weary of that. Communism and gender ideology motifs were prevalent in everything she talked about, even when talking about friends and family. Whenever I tried to gently confront her about it, she would change the subject to either her "abusive ex" stalking her (I don't know if that guy was even real), or having suicidal thoughts. Because after all, she wanted to keep me slaved to her by inducing fear of the consequences of leaving her. The point of that was, of course, to exploit me emotionally and to turn me into a punching bag for her ideology, someone to call a fascist and a chauvinist, white male pig. Eventually, under influence of whatever substances she's been dumbing herself with - I know she used weed and booze mostly - she made a mistake and it turned out she's been cheating on me from the very beginning. Of course, I dumped her in the strongest rant I could think of. I was finally free, but broken-hearted. All my subsequent dates turned out bad. Seemingly normal girls turned out to be woke leftists, trying to trick me into saying something that would trigger them. These dates felt like interrogations. The frequency of that happening quickly showed me that plenty of them harbour misandric, leftist views and anyone who isn't a socialist sorry for being a straight white male is their enemy. Having been shown so much hostility for simply disagreeing has sent me on a path of the conservative perspective. I discovered just what an elephant in the room I've been ignoring all the time by tolerating the crazy, woke left. How far the centre has moved to the left, and how their calling themselves liberals or centrists is - more often than not - a goddamn lie. In 10 years, my views haven't changed all that much in most respects. It's just what I thought to be my side came up with so many things that I couldn't accept, that it pushed me away. With Millenials and GenZ, as a conservative I am basically a pariah. When I'm asked "how could you become a conservative?!" the best and most honest response to them I can think of is "I am what you made me."
I’m sorry that you had to go through all of this. I hope you find someone who is more similar to you and really loves you. Anyway, I suggest you to stay away from tinder and other dating apps. They are extremely toxic.
As someone who actually is on the spectrum , and was diagnosed for that, ptsd and ADHD- I hate the self diagnosing people … mostly those who refuse to actually turn their theory into a real diagnosis with a doctor. Few months ago I was talking about my diagnosis here in our complex and a Gen Z Canadian walked up to me asking what video I watched to come to these conclusions cause she thinks she has all of my conditions as well. Sigh.
Both your given name and the name you go by are beautiful. I've always loved Michelle and I adore Misha. Misha was a name I suggested for my daughter, but my wife at the time shut it down.
I was born in San Francisco. It's SO SAD the way it's falling apart 😭 Your advice is spot on! I really can't believe how much sense you have. Some of the questions you got were......duh!!! Great advice 🤙I hope the questions you answered were heard by the people that sent them.
Two questions that can really help with having coherent conversations: 1) What do you mean by that? 2) Why do you believe that to be true? #1 is a question of clarification. It helps us to understand what the other person means and can help defuse the rhetorical force of another person’s claims. For example: “You’re just a bigot!” “What do you mean by ‘bigot’? And can you explain how that label specifically applies to me in this situation?” #2 is a question of evidence. It forces another person to consider what proof/evidence they have for holding their viewpoint. It can help a person realize that they really don’t have good reasons for holding a particular viewpoint. Questions (rather than statements) can help you maintain control of the conversation (in a way that isn’t aggressive or tyrannical) while not immediately forcing a person to go into defensive mode. I recommend the book “Tactics” by Greg Koukl for more info on this topic. It’s written from a conservative Christian perspective but can be useful for anyone who wants to have better conversations with people they disagree with.
7:08 if the KGB infiltrator agent director had a Time Machine to verify the efficacy of the demoralization process he would say: “ okaaay… a bit overkill but this way we’re sure it’s gonna work…”
I have ADHD. I'm so disgusted with everyone using this as an excuse for poor behavior that negatively effects others and not taking personal responsibility. I'm grateful for my diagnosis because it has allowed me to find specific tools and strategies to help me be a better person, friend, partner, employee, etc. You can't demand that people accept poor behavior because you have a disorder. Maybe they can have compassion, but you need to work on bettering yourself
Some people have higher degrees of ADHD and need certain acomodations, of course people need to better themselves but some will be in a huge disadvantage and that's not something that can be changed with work, genetics do exist and we can't deny it.
Even therapists drink the woke cool aid lol. How can you be a therapist and not analyze this stuff and determine that it’s an unhealthy and narcissistic way to think?
Thats where all the woke people go to work. Their degrees are useless for anything else but they somewhat can use it to have jobs where u work with people and “help” them
Soon-to-be-former-therapist here... Most therapists are these very same people. If you aren't, the bullying and straight up abuse you receive is ungodly.
Bacl in 2016 a lot of shops in the City of Orlando had the same policy of not being able to use the bathroom. Not sure how it is now since I moved years ago, but the homeless problem is only getting worse I assume since rent is increasing.
I think you're correct in your assessment. From what I hear from friends and family that either just moved from or still live in Oregon it's gotten worse and worse. Sad to see it happen. I just hope and pray that people truly are starting to wake up and see what is happening. Time to punish the criminals. NOT the law abiding citizens. What a time to be alive. Everything is so backwards, upside down in this crazy world we are now living in. Best wishes to you and yours my friend!
My sister bought into feminism and the woke mindset. We use to be really close friends, but now it’s like she’s constantly mad at me. Nearly everything I say sets her off on angry rants, and she’ll say I’m being condescending or misogynistic. She berates me for stuff that happened decades ago. She now thinks our brother is autistic, that I’m a closeted homosexual, and that our parents were abusive. The whole family has to walk on eggshells just to avoid her blowing up. And she’s _constantly_ on TikTok. Outside of arguments or drama, it’s all she wants to talk about. I call woke a mind cancer and I mean it, it’s like my sister died and an imposter took her place. She used to be so sweet and funny: the transformation is horrifying.
It’s like a disease, waiting to grab the gullible or meek minded and turn them into monsters. Hopefully they will understand their wrong-doings eventually, but I doubt they ever will.
You need to be there for her regardless. Continue to be that counterbalance to her rhetoric if she continues down that path. The best way to deradicalize someone is to simply be available to talk to despite whatever differences and/or disagreements you may have. Without that human connection, people like your sister will turn to stuff like social media as an outlet instead of interacting with other people in real life, which is what seems to be happening in your case. Remember that person-to-person interactions are important if you want to prevent people from becoming out of touch.
Most of the deradicalization I've seen was prompted by them getting cancelled themselves. Feeling how it is on the other side really makes people think.
One could say my own story is a story of deradicalization. Even though I wouldn't have considered myself radical, I've always been very scientific and fact-oriented, I was active in a leftist party. Over time, a new generation showed up and replaced the old and the issues that we talked about changed from social issues to wokism. I wasn't willing to just drink the cool aid (I always questioned everything, even if just for the sake of argument if I agreed - this is what I was taught to do to be a critical thinker and prospective scientist). Well, turns out these people can't argue and instead attacked me for questioning the narrative. The weirdest parts were the ones where I actually agreed but wanted to think about potential counters to - you know - debate our actual political opponents. Even if I prefaced with "I agree, but could someone maybe say that... and what would we answer?" I would often get weird looks instead of a debate. Being critical made me suspicious. Well, after a few bigger shitstorms, I left as did most of my friends. The party used to get up to 10% in national polls. Now it gets 3%.
The one for the woman, tell your husband to take a break from TikTok and all social medias and just have a free internet month or week or whatever and it'll probably help his mental health as well like tell him to go outside in the backyard or something
@@ankavoskuilen1725 A high level of moral superiority. They believe that what happened to gay men and women in the 60s is a reason to act like sub par humans to others. Shariah law can't come fast enough for these mofos.
When I was in college, about 15 years ago, I saw a video on RUclips that was about how we shouldn't make fun of people for being gay or lesbian. The video took place in an alternate universe where nearly everyone was gay or lesbian, and we followed a young girl, just starting puberty, who realized that she was a heterosexual. She feared being teased and ridiculed for this. Her two mothers had a conversation about the heterosexual couple that moved in down the street, and had even put up a blue and pink flag to broadcast their identity. This girl was told to stay away from those kinds of people. There was even something that suggested that the girl's school was putting on a production of the classic William Shakespeare play "Romeo and Julian. When the other children at school find out that this girl is a *gasp!* heterosexual, they tease her, pick on her, and beat her up. As part of this there is some name calling. They call her "a breeder". ...my question is this...we currently live in a world where less than 15% of people are gay, if we lived in a world where less than 15% of people were mating and producing offspring...wouldn't the population go down significantly?
Yup. As a gay guy, just because somebody is “unique” sexually or race wise doesn’t mean they should have a say over the majority. It’s called the majority for a reason. Identity politics are a joke.
Because time’s were different back then and people didn’t give a crap about censorship and in old bond movies that 007 used to slap women and make double entendres bond movies today are lame and lecturing
I felt the same way about Paramore except I no longer consider myself a fan I also wanna mention Hayley married a guy who she KNEW was cheating on his girlfriend, and she has assaulted security guards even spitting on one of them.
If you ask someone out, you should pay. Unless specified you’re expected to split the check. At no time should you invite a person on a date and then expect them to pay… what?! 😮
Years ago, I was on a date. We were in his car, I leaned forward to fix my shoe, he said my name, and the second I turned my head he kissed me. It was so sweet and so sexy. People like this are the reason romance is dead. God forbid a man try to surprise you today, they would be charged.
The thing is, he might be wrong and you wouldn't like it. Then you'd push him off and both of you would feel bad. The issue with the current zeitgeist is that people way overcatastrophize this as if you'd be traumatized and broken beyond repair by one unwanted kiss.
When you brought up the point that it's not a good thing that people were embracing their ADHD, reminds me of the channel "ADHD Love". They're a channel dedicated to being more sensitive towards it and the woman is the main subject while the husband helps explain things. The wife looks like she makes the husband absolutely miserable based on their interactions, the content that they revolve their channel around and the simple fact that the man looks like he's ready to Minecraft himself, in every single video. He looks so done with life and acts like it's not the case.
To the guy who invited a lady out to eat with him and expected her to pay, I have a comparison situation: Do you invite someone to a party and they accept YOUR invite, arrive to YOUR party, do you ask them where is the food, drink and cake for MY party that I invited you to attend? NO! He playing people. Must think he all that and women want him so bad. The women that fall for this GRIFTER and pay that check can have him! Good luck! You will ALWAYS be paying in some way with them.
Wokies literally called me straight a T E R F just because I am a realist with roots from the Middle East. They said my "trunsphobia" is based on my heritage 😂 I thought they were leftists and not rightists 😂😂😂
It's insane, because these are the same people that will go down swinging to defend a group of people who literally execute gays on the basis of religious extremism, but when someone reasonable approaches them and disagrees on the basis of sane cultural/religious differences? No, that's not right, and now we must be insanely racist to you. It's a weird set of priorities. "Gays for Palestine" is a popular movement despite the illegality of homosexuality there, but if someone from the same region just says "yeah, I think women have x y z body parts" then *they* get the vitriolic reaction? Not the people who are *actually killing yall and making your personal lifestyle illegal??*
23:41 I would like to clear this up since most people don't understand it, LGBT community is basically a community for people who don't fit the norm, such as gays, lasbians, bi's, etc. Asexual means you do not experience sexual attraction to people but you can still experience romantic attraction. Aromatic means you can experience sexual attraction but not romantic. Aroace (Aromatic and Asexual) people don't experience either, they like platonic relationships instead of romantic or sexual. Hope this helps!
"we donated your $1000 bonus to black lives matter." My response would have been to just outright tell them "that's theft. You took $1000 of MY MONEY and spent it without consulting us or obtaining our consent. That's theft."
But to be fair, I don't mind women saying "men do x bad things", as long as they are equally fine with me saying "women do x bad things". Generalizations exist for a reason.
i find men being much more open to admitting their problems than women nowadays. you can't even say a women is fat and has an eating problemm nowadays even when its openly clear its harming their health
Exactly this. And when they refuse, you know it's more about them pushing a certain agenda out of malice or ignorance. I'm a woman, and I'm not afraid to admit that as a kid/younger teen the internet had me totally believing in the most random unsupported woke bs. I was a huge proponent of the whole "men suck, LGBT+ is oppressed and can do no wrong!!!" Group. You know what they didn't tell me? Well, a lot of things, but the one I found to be most damning and disillusioned me from that agenda the most was domestic violence statistics. Both the implications that all men were abusers through twisted data and the fact that most relationships are hetero to begin with, but also through the subtle implications made through simple social decisions (like how everyone then, and now, comment "are the straights Ok?" Under every single account of DV, or just weird controlling situations, even if it was explicitly written by a gay couple.) Come to find out, the most likely pairing between sexes to commit domestic violence or abuse... is lesbians. Like, *by far.* To add to that fun little Stat pile, the *least likely* group to experience domestic violence are those that *only* include men- i.e. Gay Men. If you are a man, your chances of being abused jump exponentially not when introduced to the intimate presence of another man (the people we've been told commit all the crime) but when they're introduced to intimate situations with WOMEN. The only place where this isn't true is in prison, but I think we can all agree that that's not a normal representation of society, considering they're all criminals and it's a sex segregated system (but female prisoners still report sexual abuse at a far higher rate than men, both from guards and other FEMALE inmates). And all that then made me question what the point was. Because up until then, I thought I was fighting, if a little backhandedly sometimes, to help the most victimized group (women). But then, come to find out, women beat up other women way more often than men do. Wouldn't protecting women mean calling out their primary abusers? Wouldn't it be hugely beneficial to *lesbian* women- a class we'd been told is inherently more oppressed than straight women, by preventing their abuse at the hands of other women too? Apparently not, because when I brought this up to my liberal friends at the time, I was told I'd believed inherently faulty and misleading data (versus the very strong sample sizes of 12 that prove your transgenderism theories, Nancy?) And that if I continued to criticize any women as capable of the same violence that men were capable of, that I would be ousted from my inner circles. They were quite literally so dependant on the shallow and unsupported idea that men are evil and women represent inherent good (except for in incredibly rare and often, to them, justifiable cases) that any attempt to actually improve the lives of certain women, or to call out other women, was met with vitriol. The same thing is happening among the trans community right now. They legalized self ID as a valid form of identification for anyone who wants to claim transhood, despite all the dangers this possesses to women's safe spaces and sports and so on. But the same people who say "all you have to do to be trans is say you're trans" are the first to jump on the case of someone who represents them poorly by saying "they're not *really* trans" as if someone can't be trans and also a really bad person. And it's not a one off thing, either. They did it with "Karen" White, who was a man and transferred to a women's prison because they self identified as a woman, and then proceeded to assault multiple women (who would've guessed? They were in prison for doing that in the first place). Jonathan Yaniv, the dude who wants to show little girls how to insert tampons and keeps creeping in women's bathrooms under the guise of being a trans woman are widely discounted, but only because he decided to be a creep (plenty of people in the community were on his side, backing him up as a trans woman when he was only harassing waxing staff for not being qualified to wax male genitalia). Hell, even people who have questioned themselves intensely, and visited gender clinics, and expressly said "I think I'm trans and actually a woman" have been discounted because they went on to do bad things. That description I just laid out describes Ted Kosinksky- the Unabomber- who questioned his gender identity and visited multiple gender clinics frequently and spoke about it in his own personal journals that were recovered from his home. But apparently some random trans Healthcare "authorities" have decided that there's absolutely no way he was trans. Why or how have they come to this decision despite the fact that it appears Ted thought about this a lot? Nobody knows. Anywhosies, sorry for rambling, I just was reminded by your comment of how absolutely insane the commitment to a one sided "good vs evil" perspective is in a lot of left leaning circles, then and now.
@@sovietunion7643 a hundred percent. I have zero issues discussing what men in general do wrong cause I have no problem with admitting my own personal flaws. I think the inverse is the reason women individually tend to be unable to hate criticism against women in general
@Anitak.-rj1ek I call bullshit. The right is constantly criticizing men. Wtf is Jordan Petersons whole shtick? 'you're a mess, clean your room, stop being useless' Some people on the right are TIRED of hearing about patriarchy for the 10 billionth time while women are an objectively privileged class. Which is absolutely fair, I grew up in the most feminized society on the planet, all my time in school I was told how good women are and how bad men are. So I am pretty fucking tired of hearing it again, while women explode with rage at the first hint that they might not be perfect angels.
Ive definitely had bad interactions and issues with both genders. I do feel less safe around men because I'm less able to defend myself, but girls can be just as bad and it's always going to be a game of "sort out the crazies".
6:35 My sibling is trans and assumes EVERYTHING is an attack and then uses their mental health as ammo against anyone and everyone. He's 19 and lives with my mom and has no job because he refuses due to “mental health” and will yell at my mom and call her abusive when she tries to get him to do chores. He will throw “autistic fits” and demand that my mom come home early from work to feed him and do his laundry. He even once tried to convince her to quit her job because he “couldn't handle” her working so much because he needed her to take care of him. When she said that he was an adult and could feed himself take his own dog out and do his own laundry, he told her that she signed up for this when she decided to have him. It's absolutely psychotic and manipulative. She's only just now starting to see how toxic he is as in the past several years she has lost friends and pushed away family in his defense. I almost had to cut her off from me and my kids because she was enabling his behavior. I cut him off over a year ago and for a while I was the devil for “abandoning” him. Thankfully she is starting to see the light.
I love that you mentioned that both atheist satanists and deic satanists exist. It's two very different fields of faith and most people just pretend it's all the same.
All losers. They chose Satan as their symbol for a reason. It’s purely to shit on other religions while stroking their own egos. Have never met any kind of satanist who wasn’t a self absorbed loser.
Wow, as someone neuro-atypical without a diagnosis of adhd or autism, i recognise the abnormal behaviours and work my ass off to avoid those behaviours from impacting me daily life.
This all has its roots in the sexual “liberation” movement. It was bound to happen after that. Also: fo sho. Last Christmas, at a family gathering, I was asked how many more kids I want (I have two now), and I said, “As many as I can have.” The lady across from me practically started crying, and said-I kid you not-“But what about global warming??!” These people have all their priorities backwards.
I mean I’m personally against people having a lot of kids because there is no way all of those children will be loved equally. Unless you’re superman or something, but no parent is perfect. That’s just my opinion. I tend to think about the reality of a kid living with multiple siblings. It does create competition and could also bring resentment. Saying this as 3rd born out of 4 kids. I love my siblings but growing up was messy. You’d have to be pretty confident as a parent to have multiple kids.
@@doid4354 The other thread is no longer taking comments, so I'm responding here. It is important to note that Thomas Steensma, the researcher behind the study you mentioned, stated that his aim was to find predictors of persistence, not compile comprehensive numbers on desistance. He used diagnostic criteria from 1994 that focused on cross-gender preferences rather than body dissatisfaction, meaning there was no clear distinction between those wanting to alter their bodies and those simply wanting to try different gender roles. If the study was done again today, he's said that many of those kids wouldn't have even been considered trans in the first place. In a 2013 follow-up, the desistance rate was down to 63% from the previous 84.2%, but 30% of this group stopped contacting the clinic without reporting remission (i.e. remission was simply assumed rather than confirmed). Also noteworthy: 30% of the *total* study cohort of 217 was initially classed as "subthreshold," meaning they didn't meet *all* the criteria for a diagnosis to begin with. There's a reason he's said in interviews that his studies should not be seen as the final word on desistance. They very explicitly were not set up to confirm anything about the desistance rate, which is why his standards for this were not more rigorous. So long as he could find any patterns surrounding persistence, that was his original aim. I don't bring this up because I wish to deny that regret exists or to deny that there are kids who grow out of it. But given that satisfaction rates among those who transition are well over 90 percent, this suggests that resistance to transitioning is markedly more ideological than it is rooted in fact-based concern.
@@olivesama I still believe it’s wrong to give “affirming care” to kids because there is still a chance they will regret it. The stats may show that most people are satisfied after transitioning, but that isn’t a good argument for *kids* to be able to make that choice. I’ve got no problem with adults transitioning, but it is not ethical to transition children.
@@doid4354 There will never be a set of procedures with a zero percent regret rate. Lasik eye surgery, knee replacements, and prostate cancer surgery have higher regret rates than gender transition, yet we don't curtail such treatments on that account. What are the ethical implications of allowing someone to go through puberty, to grow up, to realize in adulthood that they are trans, and then to have them endure the long process of undoing the "damage" (for lack of a better word) of their first puberty when transitioning earlier in life could have prevented it? Of course, if someone starts transitioning at 18, that can still be plenty of time to "pass." I've seen many such cases. One's bones have still not finished fusing by 18. But what about those who developed early relative to their peers and for whom puberty was more physically pronounced? Such people might have gained much from starting before 18. I've seen some people say that they can only bring themselves to accept trans people who "pass," but then those same people proceed to support policies that would make it harder to so.
I work for a very liberal state's government that has many ridiculous meetings. One was supposed to be about issues going on in the world that are impacting us. Some people that descend from middle eastern countries said they were feeling uncomfortable with being in public because of the controversy over Palestine and Israel, which was actually a really interesting topic. However, a woman then hijacked the meeting and talked about how oppressed she was being misgendered (they/them pronouns). She even said she was being discriminated against by people in previous meetings. She got more sympathy than anyone else because she started breaking down crying about it. But my favorite meeting ;was for our veteran's day meeting being told the toughest job in the military was being a spouse. Thank god my camera and mic were off because I was cracking up.
sigh. my only friend up here is one of those 'caring about mental health' while having a hugely messy room. i know i am not the worlds best house keeper (my room is almost always messy), but when looking at it starts irritating me, i clean up to make myself feel better. my friend on the other hand cannot even be bothered to clean up before having someone over, and then feels the need to apologize the whole time about the mess--- but i can't tell them cleaning it up would make them feel better. this friend is trans and i keep wishing they will wake up to what their buying into, but i know i'd lose the only person i have to hang out with outside of family if i speak up. I need more conservative friends that have my interests, but looking for ppl like that is damn near impossible. (I love Danmei and Anime/Manga and chinese Wuxia/Xianxia, among other things that tend to also be popular with the left.) can I just add that I'm Christian, and this person thinks that abstaining from doing certain things **cough** by oneself periodically is punishing yourself? I have tried to explain repeatedly that it's a matter of self control and nothing more... but they clearly don't get it and given the state of their issues currently I don't think they've ever been taught self control. it's really frustrating because we get along on most things, but when it comes to mental health, their gender dysphoria and political things, i have to bite my tongue and redirect constantly.
It's one of my pet-peeves that everyone these days self-diagnoses themselves as ADHD. Guys, there are a LOT of traits that ADHD people have that are in literally EVERY human. ADHD is about MAGNITUDE of behaviors, not simply having them. Every single person's mind can, and WILL, wander. Everyone finds it difficult to focus on tasks they don't like. I believe everyone wants an excuse. The best, most valuable thing you should have learned from school is HOW TO DO THINGS YOU DON'T REALLY FEEL LIKE DOING. You need to be able to perform tasks you don't want to do REGULARLY. Ok, just cause this can be mentally difficult does NOT mean you have ADHD.
Misha, I love how you so quickly said "leave" when you heard her propose an open relationship. This rampant female degeneracy is empowerment has tarred my view of women to the point of heavy cynicism, disgust and mild disdain. I'm glad to know it isn't simply the case that every woman is this way.
Both my parents sides are from extremely catholic countries so they kinda steered me towards more conservative girls/women to date in my life and I haven’t had a single relationship end up in flames like my liberal friends. Big thanks to them 🙏
I’ve got AHDH and peer reviewed autism (I don’t have a diagnosis but the psychiatrist and therapist I see are both like “yeah prolly”, but I haven’t asked them about tests yet, since it’s a new place) and yeah my room gets messy and it’s kinda gross. BUT, I still clean up. It gets to a point where you have to do something and can’t ignore it anymore. People who live with just rotting garbage and soiled clothing in their rooms are so gross
A lot of the chaos around this stuff seems to pivot around the coopting of language. "I don't think of you as a man any longer," actually means "men are not those beings with XY chromosomes that have organic penises at birth and facial hair. 'Men are just anyone I don't like. And I like you so you can't be a man." That's just my theory on that particular situation anyway. It reminds me of how a few years ago "right wing" actually came to mean "anything I don't like". Even the word "racist" moved quickly in this direction.
My mom is ukrainian and my dad is american (but hes more of what you would call a "traditional man") and so my mom basically made him more eastern-european-acting and if I went home to tell my mom and my dad that he asked me to pay... or asked to split the bill.... it might be over for that man
i honestly find eastern european so interesting because they are wholly against the weird leftist BS happening in western european nations. i guess seeing communism in your country makes you pretty aware of the problems with leftist beurcratic control
About safe injection sites: it really decreases using drugs in bathrooms, but they must have substitution ie. methadone and conection with rehab facilities
Why not just public restrooms/ cel phone charging stations? Pay somebody to clean them. Yes, it'd cost tax money but you'd make more in sales tax if customers had a cleaner downtown to go to.
@@3namechangezalowdevry90day7Because that doesn't really solve the issue, and it's still putting people at risk- just different people. Clean restrooms and amenities like cell charging stations are cool, and everyone would be happy with them. But that doesn't fix the addiction problems among homeless people. They're going to shoot up in the bathroom if you let them- neither of those ideas stop that. Sure, you can have someone in there cleaning after every single person, but because you haven't discouraged shooting up, you're just putting them at a higher risk of getting stuck with needles or infected with other shit, because now instead of dealing with needles once a day when cleaning, they're doing it after every use. While I have qualms with safe injection sites, especially with how they've been handled in places like Canada and the US, they're steps in the right direction assuming they go hand in hand with rehabilitative programs (my problem is that they don't currently in most places).
@@anathemat-002 The thing is, all this stuff costs $$$$. You have to start with fighting crime and making the cities livable or there's no sales tax and property tax to fund ANYTHING. Since the funds are limited, triage has to happen. Start by helping those most likely to get back on their feet. Clean public restrooms. Then patrolled parking lots for the working poor to sleep in their cars between shifts. 24 hour warming/cooling facilities. THEN capsule hotel style shelters for those who are drug tested and will keep them clean. Once you have that in place THEN you can build a rehab and give the junkies the choice of rehab or jail.

Great video, just one tiny thing on the video you said about asexuals not being attracted to anyone, I'm asexual myself and for most asexuals it's just we don't want to engage in sexual activity but we do feel regular romantic attraction just not sexual attraction.
I used to call myself asexual just so people wouldn’t bother me about anything sexual or romantically related. It’s honestly one of the easiest ways to get people to drop the topic without being bothersome about it.
I appreciate that you can see that the specific cities here in Corruptifornia are the problem, instead of thinking it's the entire state like many think. The majority of the state is red, but the big cities barely out vote us.
@@jatbatman how do you live there man ? I mean how can you survive with such intolerant people who claim they are tolerant unless you are a con and not a lib. How do you make friendships ? How do you work with people ? Do you not feel isolated ?
@@ramtins9258 because I live in a small town in a conservative county, and only go to the liberal areas on rare occasion. It's better that way. Not perfect, but manageable.
Not my experience but my sister's. My sister went to College to do Medical Science and one of her 'friends' she used to hang out with started transitioning to a boy (from a girl) and she changed her name and everything which is fine but she had the attitude that everyone should get used to it like nothing ever changed. Like a lot of people who are more geniune would be more reasonable and wouldn't blast that they're trans to every single person. Also she used mental health as a big excuse for not doing basic things like homework and she would have multiple 'episodes' of sudden shaking when it came to the pressure of school; she also would come to school every now and again and randomly announce to my sister that she now had XXX disorder. I totally respect trans people and their decisions but this person was just unhinged and not stable.
I agree about not using mental illness as an excuse for being a slob. I'd extend it to other illnesses too. My ex gf had MS ( early stages) and for way too long I tolerated bad attitude and slobbish behaviour. It was inexcusable but I let it go because she always blamed it on her illness.
I walked with artists, you can guess it, 99% of them are woke. I had a crucifix under my shirt, which, even if i'm a christian, i got as a gift from a family member that is living on another country, so it is personal. When i bent down to get some stuffs after a bazaar ended, my crucifix fell of the shirt and a guy saw and he acted like a vampire, he got his hand over his face and said "Are you- are you a christian?!". Nobody talked to be me on the art scene, so i left that place and i began fixing electronics for a living, arts doesn't pay well anyway... Ironically, the bazaar space was in fact offered by a church for "cultura reasons", and they don't cared about making profane arts on the place, drawings of "male parts" and "male parts inside the male part from behind". One moment a mother with her son went to that table and pushed her son as fast as she could and left the place. Then artists ask themselves why nobody cares about [modern] art anymore. I would do the same if i was that mother. Another case was when a feminist made a punk show on another bazaar, note, this place was public and on the downtown, everyone could enter the place, it was a state institution. And those feminists showed their "upper parts" and later laid down on the floor and began to "touch that area". Note, majority of the people around them were around 16 yo, and there were some children there, that, of course, their mothers took them out.
Hm If id get invited and the guy clearly says "i'll invite you to dinner" then i expect him to pay. If he says "wanna have dinner together or eat out together", i expect we both pay for our dishes
I study cinema in an insufferably woke college in Brazil. Almost done with it, and im pretty sure im the only conservative in there. Since im pretty discreet, it has been a generally chill experience, sometime even fun (when i poke some teachers with the "conservative stick" if i know i won't suffer a lot of backlash for that, for example, lol). But i _have seen_ some appalling stuff. Just one recent example: there was this class, where we were really behind on the program, because we had already missed so many classes (for a lot of reasons). Nevermind that. One day, that teacher is like "no class today, we need to go to the auditorium RIGHT NOW for a SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT talk). It was an american journalist from The New York Times (you see where this is going), who were presenting one of their programs (where people from all over the world make shorts, fictional or not). He presented it as something like "we want to see originality, have no political bias, we are completely impartial and fack check everything bla bla bla...". Then he presented as an example this emotionally charged mini doc by a brazillian filmmaker, about a completely inocuous subject, you see: abortion. It was shamelessly manipulative, pro choice, and absolutely BRIMMING with disinformation. Coincidentally, it was at the time the Supreme Court in Brazil was discussing decriminalizing abortion, but thats just a coincidence, see. But i also have witnessed some hilarious embarrassments. One time, they invited an executive producer (she is very accomplished and helped the productuin of "Cidade de Deus", one of the best movies ever made). A student in the audience baited her with the usual woke question: "as a woman, tell us of some of the negative experiences you had on this male-dominated industry that is cinema, blablabla...", only to get a very blunt "never had any" as a response xD. Moments like these always makes me chuckle (internally, of course, i don't want to get lynched). I see stuff like this (like these two examples, i mean) everyday :/
@@IlBiggo As it should be. We're not too fond of the idea of murdering babies. Nevertheless, in some cases it is legal, like grape or if the mom's life is at risk. That was one of the lies in her documentary, btw. She said her life was in danger because of the pregnancy and couldn't get an abortion because it is a crime in Brazil, which it wouldn't be true in her case (that is, even if we assume her tale was factual).

I was at Walmart* trying buy some cream for my sisters allergy causing puffy eyelids. Everything was behind glass. I couldn't help but think how much human time was being wasted by having everything behind glass. Probably 5 other people waiting for products. Well, after using the internet to figure out what cream to buy and finding a person to unlock the glass. The lady informed me that the lock on the section didn't work. It was right in the middle so we couldn't get to it via another section. So much time is wasted by tolerating dishonest and lying. I used to work at a mechanic shop across the street from a mom and pop hardware store. They let us go in and grab whatever we needed, fill out a receipt by hand. And then they billed us weekly. This caused us to buy a lot more from them and lead to better faster repairs. Since we knew we didn't need to wait in what could be a long line. We also saved money since we didn't need to stock any common hardware. * I know that was my first mistake
Regarding poking fun: If a woman starts joking about men, I'll just retort in a cheerful manner "At least we can drive lmao". If she laughs, she's a catch and we can make fun of each other. If she doesn't laugh, she just got filtered.

The second story about the woke girlfriend was hilarious in the way that every single thing she claimed, was a trend on TikTok. Every. Single. Thing. Also I love Harry Potter and JK Rowling and always have. Another thing, I used to watch Doctor Youn (holistic plastic surgeon) on here and really liked him. But then he made a video basically justifying surgery for “trans kids.” I was so disappointed in him. A few other people were as well. I unsubscribed. So yeah, I hate when people you like end up doing stuff like that.

Alright fellas, I got one for you aswell. I grew up in Bavaria, a traditionally rather conservative state in Germany. Last year I started attending a university to study IT and electronics. Since I'm also personally invested in societal shifts and happenings I wondered, if I could observe the same "woke madness" with which, you Americans have to deal with, at my University. After all, Germany shares with Britain the title of being the European America. I could not come up with much due to my institutions nature of being mainly focused on mathematics, physics, chemistry and other scienetific subjects. Seems like that deters most of the crazies. Go figure. Sometime later I got in contact with a guy from the University of Augsburg and he told me that some of his fellow students were of the extremely left leaning type which heavily influenced the campus. Once again, some time goes by and suddenly a headline hits the news that the student parliament of the University of Augsburg proposed the installation of gloryholes in the main hall (look it up if you don't believe me). The argumentation was that the life of studying is sometime "stressfull" and such an installation would help relief stress and anxiety. Furthermore it would present the university as a space which is "critical of heteronormativity". Sex for everybody, straight or queer, since gloryholes are anonymous. Naturally the proposal was immediately shot down and put away in the files as joke. The thought of wanting to turn a embassy of education and reason like a uni into a wh*rehouse is just baffeling to me. This wasn't directly my personal experience but I thought it to be so redicolous that just had to mention it. Love your vids and best regards :)
Miss Misha, somehow I'm only just now finding your channel, so I'm bingeing. Feeling the need to thank you for teaching your generation as you are. Keep up the great work!
What confuses me the most is the fact that in the US being politically left equals having gender dysphoria, purple hair, a septum piercing and letting everyone know what your preferred pronouns are. And that's it.

San Francisco is the land of hippie culture... I don’t understand why you would expect anything other than hippie mentality from people there.
I used to have to go there for my daughter's appointments, now her doctors are in LA. Still bad, but not as bad. I personally could never live in either city though. I'm more of a small town guy anyway. There's definitely way better places with normal people, even here in Corruptifornia. Move to one of the areas that always vote red and you'll see a world of difference.
Come down to Florida more sane people r here.

When I was pregnant my 1st pre-natal provider asked for my consent to do the exam. Why would I be there if I wasn’t going to consent? It was so weird. She also had a rainbow pin.

For them “not wanting men self-identifying as women in women only spaces (like prisons)” is “transphobic”.
Mischa, "mankind" really is old-fashioned. Humankind is more like it.

Why not?
I was at a rehabilitation department of a mental hospital for depression that led to a psychotic episode. It was the first time I literally encountered a blue haired woke girl, who wanted to transition. (I'm not from the states).
What I found most disturbing was that the occupational therapists asked everyone to refer to her as "him".
So.. my delusions about being someone that I'm not was bad, but for another girl to think that she's a man, which she clearly wasn't - that's fine and everyone should go along with it?
It's a freaking mental hospital. They helped me with my delusions and at the same time they reinforce someone else's? Like what the hell was that?
I only realized how bizzare this was a while after I got out of there. I didn't think much about wokeism at the time, I just wanted to be nice to others.
What happened to "just be yourself", and not caring about what others think? It's like everything turned upside down now, and your identity is now solely based on how others see and call you..
You used to be able to just be a feminine guy or a masculine girl.. now you can't.
Thank god I was born in '96, otherwise instead of being a little emo as a teen I'd be a big idiot.
I just love when mentally unstable people publicly judge others and expect validation.
So true. We live in a world where delusions are being appreciated and the truth is forbidden. People can't be themselves anymore, and create dozens of labels instead. It's so much worse now than 20 years ago where subcultures just meant being creative, not changing your orientation and gender identity.
Holy shite. 🤯🫨 new fear unlocked. If this happened to me in a mental hospital I wouldn’t know up from down 😂 like “how am I the most sane in this situation?!” 😮. “No mamm that is a man…” 😅 someone would have to up my meds for me to see that. Omg what a horrific situation.
You don't "embrace" mental health problems. You deal with them. They are not an excuse for bad behaviour and being lazy. I've delt with depression and anxiety since my teens. Possibly have undiagnosed ADHD. I'm learning how to hack my brain to do the things that are hard and deal with my emotional disregulation. I've used a combination of medication and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy over the years. It's really hard, but I'm no quitter. I refuse to be a victim.
Same, I refuse the victimisation.
Exactly. These self-diagnosing people are actually doing so much harm to those of us who have legitimate reasons to ask our providers for help on getting diagnosed. I’m suspected to have ADHD, but not because I exhibit laziness-that’s not ADHD. Brain maps and physical reactions to certain things that are supposed to alter my energy level have made me wonder, on top of having plenty of the more mundane symptoms. Even then, I wouldn’t care enough to go get a diagnosis or talk to providers about this being a potential issue if it wasn’t a plausible cause for my paradoxical insomnia. I asked my sleep specialist if we could look into ADHD treatments because _nothing_ was working, or if he could offer some kind of referral to someone who would know, and he basically brushed me off. I’m a teenager wondering if I have ADHD, because of people like the girl in that post, we aren’t and really can’t be taken seriously.
We really should start a "Not the Victim" movement to upheave bs lies about those who broke laws and their only excuse was either "teehee, I'm autistic" or "I'm a Aquarium, I get angsty on mondays"
@@DannyDevitoOffical-TrustMeBro if you're still looking for treatment, best thing i can recommend is more exercise and practicing sleep hygiene. I'm in the same boat, diagnosed adhd and horrible insomnia and i tend to sleep better after exercise. Sleep hygiene is having at least a vague bedtime and not using your phone in bed so the brain only associates being there with resting.
Sometimes embracing and dealing with is kind of the same thing. If you ignorere them to "deal with" them you dont learn anything and the same thing happens again and again. If you embrace them, that could mean actually getting better. It kind of depends on how you use the words. I embrace my illness now, and by that I mean i am very very awear of the fact that if i sleep too little, I get delusions. Earlier i tried to "deal with it" and by that I mean living as a normal person. If I went to bed too late because I was Reading on a test, I thought "well normal people push through so I have to deal with it and just push through too!", and then I got delusions and destroyed my friendships and didnt finish school. Now I would embrace it, and that would look like this: ok, I didnt read enough, but I have to go to bed now because I now know that no matter what I think now, my mind will be different with a huge lack of sleep and doing good on a test wont help me if I get crazy and drop out.
Art and English student from Germany here 👋 and I gotta say this combination is where MAANYY of the woke students assemble and I feel out of place. I have a drawing class which is where most stuff happens. 1. This red-haired girl would come to my seat and tell me that she liked my drawing which was nice. I wanted to return a compliment and followed her to her seat and asked some questions about her current drawing which was a full body portrait. So I was like 'oh okay and btw what is she holding in her hand?' und she suddenly screamed 'WHY DOES EVERYONE GENDER MY DRAWING?!?!' and I was like.... It's just a drawing not a person calm tf down. Then one other time several woke students were philosophizing about stealing, more specifically how they would be accepting of people who would food steal out of hunger (which for the most part I can have compassion for as well) but then they went on to say 'well I should be able to steal a little battery or light bulb so my home can be a little lit up to feel a bit of happiness😢' and where wondering where the boundary would be. I said that I would feel compassionate for the hungry & homeless and that I would not necessarily snitch if I saw them stealing in a super market or sth. However I made it clear that I did not agree with stealing at all in general and that there are better ways to get what you need. Especially in Germany where you can get support (donations and financial support by the state). Then this red-haired girl joined the conversation and went so extreme as to say 'well what if I get bullied at school because I don't have this jacket from this specific brand? I should be able to steal it not matter what for my own good'.... I was like.. No that is not a necessity and then she accused me of not allowing other people the same degree of happiness as myself 😂I am not near anywhere rich lol. Needless to say, many woke discussions arise in this drawing class and I always have to bite my tongue not to say out loud that I absolutely disagree with almost everything they say
It's literally stealing from thieves stealing that jacket anyways.
As an art student from Brazil, I feel your pain, it's the same thing here 😓
So glad to not be going to art school. There is this girl in my class who is going to art school and she is the definition of a woke drone. She has these fucking preprogrammed responses to everything. In mother tongue class we read a poem about a hard working man who never lost his faith in God despise the dying crops. His wife kept insisting to stop being faithful, but he just worked harder. In the end they were blessed by a supremely bountiful harvest. Moral of the story was to be patient, work hard, and trust in God. The teacher encouraged us to have a discussion and to describe the man. The girl called him stupid. The teacher, dumbfounded, asked why. She said: "putting in 0 effort and expecting for a man in the sky to work for you is stupid. Be responsible for your own success". The teacher was gobsmacked and after a bit of silence said "but he didn't depend on God. He kept working harder and harder!". The girl went silent and didn't respond. Another class we were doing a project on Seitsemän Veljestä (Seven Brothers) and I was assigned to work with that same girl. We were to make a comic on a scene from the book of our choosing. After a while it was my time to colour the comic, and... she hadn't drawn any clothes or line art for that matter. She didn't even clean the sketch! Hesitatingly I told her that we should give them clothes because otherwise they look naked, and the teaher may not liー
"There is nothing wrong with nude art"
I was confused as all hell. I explaines again that it is a school project that'll go onto the wall for the whole school to see and that the teacher may not like the characters being naked. She shrugged in silence and drew nothing. Eventually she said "look, we'll make the other guy blue. See? Not naked."
She has a few piercings and her WhatsApp profile picture is borderline porn. 15 years old and her PFP is a picture of her in nothing but a very low bra revealing her... ehem... cleavage. She never smiles or sounds happy.
Those little communists always want to steal.

Short story time!
I have a close friend, she’s always leaned left while I’be always leaned right, but we’re genuine friends and we don’t let our political opinions get in the way of our friendship. We occasionally have friendly debates on lighter topics and we’ve both learned a great deal from each other. All in all, a great friendship. I recently met a friend of hers and well… let’s just say this friend wasn’t as great as she is. The friend was non-binary and used neopronouns. I, out of respect for my friend, obliged in using they/them but would not use neopronouns. My friend was totally okay with that and actually told me that she thought the concept of neopronouns was stupid. Well, the friend of my friend heard me use they in reference to them, and they flipped out. They started outright screaming at me and calling me a bigot, transphobe, homophobe, sexist, basically all the words. I just kinda… laughed at them. I didn’t really know how to respond and it was genuinely funny (albeit horrifying) that this person was screaming at me over something so meaningless. My laughter of course, made them more angry so I just walked away.
To my surprise, my friend was actually really cool about it. Probably because we’ve been friends for a LONG time and she basically agrees with me on the neopronoun subject. It was just a really strange occurrence, thankfully it didn’t happen in a particularly public place…
What a good friend and it shows that even with different opinions you can be friends. Both just need to be open minded and respectful. The other friend there is definitely not open minded or respectful. When you walk around with bitterness and hate in your heart you can't have healthy debates and will always have bitter and hateful friends who drive you deeper
man i wish i could meet more liberal types of people who weren't crazy. i like having friends with differing opinions as it forces me out of my comfort zone and make me try to understand different worldviews even if i don't agree with it. far left people i can't even talk to as the second you give an opinion they don't agree with they INSTANTLY turn on you
there was this nice lady at a diner in my small town and she seemed somewhat liberal but very nice. we had a conversation or a while that was polite and civil about random junk, i start talking about my struggles as a christian in modern colleges, and the SECOND i mention my college teacher hating Christianity she does a 180, says she completely agrees with my teacher and says religion is used oppress people, and added on that 'everything you'd said in this conversation was descriminatory' basically calling me racist
glad you're still cool with your friend. i had friends there were my buds for over 10 years and I thought we were close. but they stopped talking to me because I didn't agree with removing the electoral college (though do agree it may need to be reworked but not removed) and I didn't think a group of teenage boys (the Covington kids) were evil white men that caused a problem directly and should be wipped from the face of the earth..and mind you we're in our 30s/40s. i mean holy crap.
i have a liberal friend and I’m more conservative. She and i get along well and we poke fun at how extreme leftists and the alt right are. Most of my liberal/centrist friends know i lean more conservative as well and don’t care.
I'm glad you kept your left-leaning friend. I had to break off friendship with a right-leaning guy because he kept calling me a moron because I didn't agree with him on who to vote. He wanted me to vote for one specific guy amongst the 7 political parties of our country, and if I didn't vote for that one single guy, I was a "fucking idiot" - his words, because I told him it didn't matter who you voted for as long as it respected your personnal convictions. Crazy people in all sides of the political spectrum, I suppose.

After a quick self-examination, I realized that I would need to hear new information that I didn't know before and couldn't refute to change my stances.
For example, someone recently pointed out that one of my views had a flaw. They were polite, and they had a good point. They even had an alternate solution that I now like even more.
I had a group of friends who basically disowned me.
I was always left-leaning, but apparently some of my opinions are considered conservative now since it’s gotten so extreme. First off, the first time I got Covid, I quarantined for the mandated 10 days and masked 5 days after that… I asked my friends to hangout after completing the quarantine. They said I needed to test negative first. Tests had gotten expensive and I didn’t have money for another, so I said that and that the CDC website states you can test positive for 3 months afterwards, but it’s not contagious after the 10 days… they said I was being too pushy by stating these things, and that my “selfish inconsiderate behavior” was endangering their lives.
Fast foreword over a year later, one of the friends (who is also no longer part of the group) said she was uncomfortable with drag because it mocked women. I simply said I saw where she was coming from. I have no problem with modern drag for adults, but it did originate as a minstrel show making fun of working women in Ireland. Anyway, they said my “playing devils advocate” was dangerous.
Then I was honest and admit I was mainly uncomfortable with drag for kids, because it’s inappropriate, and that I was troubled by the explicit LGBTQ books for kids depicting s3xual intercourse! This was somehow also “dangerous conservative rhetoric”??
I feel like my opinions are very mild! But they all thought I was somehow endangering their lives.
There was a "drag queen army" in Jerusalem in 70AD but they were more like a well armed gang. They fought against general Titus and were the reason the temple burned down. Those mystery religions from Babylon lead to some crazy behavior.
Your opinions are mild and I agree with them. Anyone who conforms to an extreme on one side of politics is probably a crackpot.
Damn - sorry your friends fell / are falling for the BS. FYI the NY Times did an article in early (early) 2020 citing the professors of Harvard Epidemiology & the cycle thresholds of those tests. The "positive test" numbers were used to shutdown & bankrupt small businesses & scare people. I have a link if you are interested & can video a hard copy if it no longer works.
Buddy, drag has been around since before Shakespeare, because women were not allowed to be actors. There was a joke in the day that on the internet the men were men and the women were men. That joke is actually true for actors in the middle ages. It wasn't "to make fun of women" it was women weren't allowed to participate at all.
@@therealfriday13th buddy, drag is its own very specific performance and is separate from men simply dressing up as women for a role. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

I have adhd and I don’t live in garbage. Chores are harder to do than others due to starting level of dopamine compared to others but they get done eventually enough so that I live in a clean home. Embracing adhd just to me means accepting that I have it and becoming aware of myself when I notice the symptoms (doesn’t always work) and trying to alter the actions or inaction it is causing. Meds don’t really help. Only thing that helped was going keto.
There are people with ADHD that are ultra-neat and clean houses. These cases are probably severe depression or hoarding disorder.
ADHD too, my space can get pretty cluttered because I'm constantly jumping from project to project, but I have NEVER let garbage build up. Food is immediately taken care of so nothing rots, etc.

I have epilepsy and have been told that keto is a great treatment option outside of medication. And I agree, I’ve learned to embrace having adhd and dealing with the symptoms, but now I just learn how to embrace it via lifestyles and different techniques
As a conservative lesbian, dating is hell lmao and I hate being put into the same pot as all of those woke crazies. The current condition of the lgbt community is sad. And I'm gonna be honest. It all started with the gender bullshit.
I feel like that is the reason why there are groups like "LGB without the T " or "LGB alliance" , the gender bs did SO much damage
Same, I am conservative gay. What they do is conversion therapy. I am gay because I want men, why on earth would I be attracted to a girl who calls herself he him. It's crazy

I agree! It also feels that if you don't agree with their bs, they treat you as a pariah of the community. I also really hate the amount of hate they tend to give the straight community, and (white) men often get it even worse. They present themselves as tolerant but are the most intolerant people you will even speak to.
No, it started with bullshit people.
In my first year of university we had a seminar about right-wing politics (I study psychology) i.e they named and shamed Ben Shapiro and Jordan peterson. This proceded with a (one sided) debate about gender netural bathrooms and how if you're a woman and agaisnt trans women in the bathroom it means ur a bigot. I proceeded to state that men have a greater bone structure and muscle mass therefore I would not feel safe. The seminar leader who was a 6ft 7 man stood over me and stated "thats just not true, men dont have those characteristics, youve just made that up.", we then proceeded to argue about the topic. The man was in his late 40's early 50's
Huh. I'm suprised your country even has politics included at all into the seminars. I'm doing nursing degree rn and our psychology didn't have any politics in it, it was just practical things we would need to talk to patients etc
@@wlodek7422It honestly depends the college. I won’t name where I go, but the Honors program is very woke.

I consider myself center-right and have a friend who is a self-proclaimed leftist. I've been able to keep our friendship mainly because there are certain topics of conversations I try to avoid with him, one of them being anything LGBTQ-related. Once I made the mistake of telling him when I was a preteen, I (a female) wished I could be a boy because I had a lot more masculine interests than feminine (and still do). I told him I've come to understand better over the years that girls can still like more stereotypically masculine things, but instead, he said excitedly, "Aww, so you're non-binary!" That really got under my skin.
No, you’re not. It’s okay not being the most feminine girl around. Aren’t we supposed to live without labels? I’m honestly tired of this nonsense.
Next time he says anything like that, call him out for forcing you into a box and enforcing gender stereotypes/norms. Should shut him up right quick.
Non-binary isn't a gender identity, it's a political identity. You're right being annoyed about someone else trying to force you into an ideological box
It's amazing how you manage to look back on your old self and be honest about your old mindset. Like you're not afraid to admit you were narrow minded back then. You've clearly grown into such a great human being. Love your videos, Misha 👍
@anie7254 true, but I also have a feeling that society is also so afraid of another potential Nazi dictatorship like in ww2 that we have a preoccupation with leftist thinking, so allowing these activists to warp things in the name of 'compassion'. If we're not careful, far left extremism would dominate more than it even does now
@anie7254 and yeah I've also mellowed out myself a bit now. I've come to realise that things are more complex than we think, so my political views are a mixture of left and right. For instance, I don't agree with abortion (I'm 'pro-life') except if the woman or baby (or both) are at any kind of medical risk, or rape is involved
Misha is a beautiful soul, and beautiful in all❤
10:03 This is the reason for the gender hysteria: childhood trauma induced by growing up in an environment where identity formation was either difficult or impossible, especially in matters of gender.
My first language is French - a gendered language. A strict gender language with only two genders: male and female. Every word has a gender to us. So, as a child, I've always had the ability to overlook it. I could play with whatever I wanted and would use anything to fit my purposes - boy or girl toy, it never made a difference to me and I was never once berrated for it. It never crossed my mind that I was in the wrong because nobody cared.

Funny enough this whole video reminds me of an argument I had with one of my friend. I told him that I dont believe non-binary people exist because theres no such thing as having no gender. I kept coming up with arguments while my friend's only argument was "you are talking like a boomer right now", saying it over and over whenever I came up with something new to say
Ah, yes, the classic "I have no more arguments, or I feel so entitled that I do not need to justify or quantify my points with any actual evidence, so instead I will result to calling you names that, while not inherently bad (so that I can pretend I'm not insulting you if you bring it up) are names that I have associated consistently with negative beliefs like nazism."
Seriously, these groups of people have associated boomers (most of which these people have no consistent contact with and who almost certainly don't even use the internet because they're literally all like 80 years old or dead rn) with the wildest shit. Being called a boomer is just being called a racist nazi homophobe who is actively working to collapse the economy out of spite for young people, just with less words.
I assume that non-binary people reproduce by fissioning into two individuals, like bacteria.
So doesn’t Klingon and Vulcan count
The word "mankind" has its roots in Old English, where "mann" meant "human being" and "kind" meant "nature" or "type.

Can’t expect these woke types to understand etymology.
I'm pretty sure refusing to employ someone simply because of their sexual preference is illegal. It is here in the UK. Why are there so many people who are incapable of reversing the logic of something to see if they'd accept someone saying it about them?
Because using logic and thinking is something a lot of people lack. Think of the average person and then remember half of the people are below that point. It’s sad but being logical isn’t important to many anymore, the only thing that matters is winning arguments.

The recording of those British girls questioning about cat identity made all the woke kids furious and said that everyone should respect everyone’s identity. Even though I have a no politics rule, my fellow employees encouraged it and practically we were forced to discuss it.
Let’s just say I lost hope for certain people because I sort of died on the inside during their discussion.

They claim to be "cats" and "dogs" but don't want to be fixed...
How convenient, innit?
@@erinjean2695The responses of the teacher were by no means hypothetical.
I dated this girl for about a month, and we hit it off immediately, she's smart and very beautiful, and we had great chemistry, I was excited about pursuing it further, and we would start seeing each other almost every day or whenever we could. She graduated college with a degree in philosophy and was about to graduate with her master's from one of the most prestigious law schools in the country. we were able to have deep talks and I don't shy away from an interesting conversation (we debated the death penalty on our first date). In our initial debate, I stated that somebody who rapes and/or murders may deserve this penalty, but I don't believe the taxpayer should pay to kill individuals when it's in fact cheaper to keep them alive to reflect on their deeds. She stated that we should not even take them to prison, and said that even if someone raped and killed her 'it is done' and nobody will be helped by him being jailed, especially because rape and murder are effects of 'this country's history of slavery and racism', to which I asked 'did your country have the same history of slavery? her: no, me: do they have rape and murder? Her: yes, Me: ok so that isn't why.... she immediately dropped it. Literally, nobody in philosophy or law school has questioned these ideas.
On another instance, we spoke about how her building was in a dangerous neighborhood, and she knew I was concerned for her safety, she said it was not as bad as her friend's and preceded to tell me how every time she goes to visit her best friend, there is a homeless man who screams how he wants to do *crimes* to both of them and that he often even follows them and is a dangerous person who always harasses them. I said 'Hey, you should call the police' and her response was 'I don't want to put his life in danger'.... what about you, your friend, and all the innocent people of that neighborhood? She asked me to drop it.
I want to point out that she's now graduating from one of the most prestigious law schools in the country, she will practice law, and maybe even be a judge or politician, writing law and affecting the country at large.... believing these rapists and murderers are as she said: "literally like my babies".
I want to stress one more point, I'm a pretty traditional guy, and she seemed to really like my traditional, protective attitude towards her, all while she tells me how she would never date a conservative (GOTCHA), so she would literally leave this mindset if people in her PHILOSOPHY school where allowed to question and explore ideas as her values actually are very similar to my own.
You are not alone.
Its an experience many of my male friends and me had, sad if the guy starts taking over the thinking.

The last one started conversations, always wanted to be respected for her degrees in art therapy, but I told her, I studied political science and I really looked into all positions and yeah I ask before hand: "Is your mind already set or are there any information that could change it"
"Can I have different political views and still be a good person, have good intentions?"
"Are you tolerant? How much different can a worldview be to yours and you would still support the person?"

I worked in Portland 13 years ago (lived in Beaverton). That place was hippy goofball, for sure, but nowhere near the dumpster fire Portland is today. Coming from Philly, I found Portland to be pretty and safe and clean. The "homeless" back then were rich kids from the burbs sitting on the sidewalk with signs that said "Need bong money". Pretty harmless. Today, that whole city seems psychotic. I would love to go back to OR just to see the coast again, but now I hear there are tents popping up on Cannon Beach, of all places. Such a beautiful state and those dumb wokies are just hell bent on destroying it 💔
It's spilling into Washington as well there not in the forest in the hills and mountains yet but I still have to go to the city for stuff and socializing, it gets worse every time I used to go to Portland for the bars and live music until they got bold enough to start smashing car windows.
I visited Portland in 1999 and it was vastly different than it is today. Super clean, damn great public transportation, kinda hippy but nothing too outlandishly insane yet. I enjoyed my time there, the people were so nice to a southern boy. What I've seen lately... I doubt I'll return for quite a while.
oh man, I know exactly how the first person feels. I've walked into a bathroom to find a homeless guy passed out on the floor. Horrifying, and I'm a 6'3" 210 lb man. I can only imagine how a girl would feel if she was in the same situation
Personally that's why I'm agaisnt bathroom bills? I have a lot of trans men friends and I wouldn't want them in the bathroom with me. They may be biologically females but they look fully male :(
Exactly this! I'm a 5'1 string bean of a woman who was constantly warned growing up that a strong wind would blow me away, and that shit is terrifying.
But I also don't think that the standards for how either of us, despite our huge size disparity, deal with those situations should be different. If I could reasonably argue leaving the situation, or shooting someone if they attacked me, you should be able to do the same.
The expectation that's placed on men, especially larger dudes, is insane. There is absolutely no reason that you should put yourself in an incredibly more compromising situation just because you have a better chance of actually subduing someone without a gun. Like, can you probably put a random homeless dude who attacks you into a chokehold and end the altercation with both of you living? Sure, and you could probably do it with a way higher success rate than I could. *But you shouldn't be expected to.* Because then you're also risking a wide variety of infections, needle sticks, being attacked with a concealed weapon like a knife, etc. They made their choice when they chose to attack you, and you have no responsibility to them or anyone else to spare them just because society views you as more capable of doing so.
I once went to a BLM protest to see if it would challenge some of my negative preconceptions of the group, and it most certainly did. Now I hate it even more.
The experience honestly wasn't that bad, and it was more entertaining than hurtful, but still, I was surprised at how bad of a job the woman I spoke to did at convincing me of the rightness of her cause.
Note to anyone reading this: don't be rude to people you want to join your side. It doesn't make them think you're worth listening to.
BLM is like PETA. Like who wouldn’t think black lives don’t matter and who would support the ethical treatment of animals? And yet what they support is extremist in nature. Great marketing though because of the acronym

Then she said “someone tried to get me fired for saying that”
I said “that is INSANE. People are too sensitive these days”
I felt so bad for her, she’s so kind and didn’t deserve that
During the lockdowns, my sister worked for Chick Fil A. She was walking orders out to the waiting cars, the food on trays. Because of the lockdowns, she wasn’t supposed to hand the food to people herself, but offer out the tray and then take it back once it was unloaded. However, one lady she served in a big van had a very big order, so the tray was too heavy for her by herself. My sister helped her handle it as she took food off. This woman was white, which should be irrelevant…except that some entitled narcissist with a race card and a vendetta saw my sister held the tray for the other lady and helped her take food off,but when it was the black woman’s turn to get her *two bags* off the tray, my sister didn’t help her. Seriously, she scolded my sister in the parking lot for being “racist” because she was too pathetic to dream of possibly having to lift her own hands to grab her own two bags of food herself. Cry me a river lady, what privilege.
That girl in the relationship story is such a mess. How can she decide that her bf isn't a man anymore just because he doesn't fit her horrible stereotypes? I thought respecting people's gender identities was supposed to be one of the most important things.
because her logic was contradicted.
Nah, it was about narcissism
Hi, first of all, I'd like to thank you for all the great work you're doing, providing a voice of sanity in the world of today. I watched plenty of your videos and wanted to share my story. Truth be told, it's not as much why I left the left, it's how the left left me. Years ago, I've been a centre-left liberal. I still support same-sex marriage, and my views on abortion align neither with the left, nor the right. Anyway, I slightly "overslept" the emergence of wokeism, it's been a non-issue to me. I was oblivious of the gender ideology. I didn't notice that until the winter of 2020/2021. I met a girl through Tinder. No bio, normal photos that did not suggest anything wrong. In conversation, she presented herself as a liberal, there was no woke stuff involved. We've grown close, and while she did have some depression issues, I didn't want to push her away. I have experienced heavy depression, and so I felt for her. I didn't yet know that my compassion would be my undoing. My being helpful in time she spinned into me implying she's weak. Her being vegetarian turned into an attack on me, that my not beint one makes me morally inferior. Her next targets were my good manners, like letting her through the door first. I have very traditional manners, I let ladies through the door first with a slight bow, even - as is the gentlemantly way. I was billed a specimen of toxic masculinity and patriarchy. She started reacting negatively to simple physical contact, claiming it's an invasion of her personal space. Of course, I've been growing weary of that. Communism and gender ideology motifs were prevalent in everything she talked about, even when talking about friends and family. Whenever I tried to gently confront her about it, she would change the subject to either her "abusive ex" stalking her (I don't know if that guy was even real), or having suicidal thoughts. Because after all, she wanted to keep me slaved to her by inducing fear of the consequences of leaving her. The point of that was, of course, to exploit me emotionally and to turn me into a punching bag for her ideology, someone to call a fascist and a chauvinist, white male pig. Eventually, under influence of whatever substances she's been dumbing herself with - I know she used weed and booze mostly - she made a mistake and it turned out she's been cheating on me from the very beginning. Of course, I dumped her in the strongest rant I could think of. I was finally free, but broken-hearted. All my subsequent dates turned out bad. Seemingly normal girls turned out to be woke leftists, trying to trick me into saying something that would trigger them. These dates felt like interrogations. The frequency of that happening quickly showed me that plenty of them harbour misandric, leftist views and anyone who isn't a socialist sorry for being a straight white male is their enemy.
Having been shown so much hostility for simply disagreeing has sent me on a path of the conservative perspective. I discovered just what an elephant in the room I've been ignoring all the time by tolerating the crazy, woke left. How far the centre has moved to the left, and how their calling themselves liberals or centrists is - more often than not - a goddamn lie. In 10 years, my views haven't changed all that much in most respects. It's just what I thought to be my side came up with so many things that I couldn't accept, that it pushed me away. With Millenials and GenZ, as a conservative I am basically a pariah. When I'm asked "how could you become a conservative?!" the best and most honest response to them I can think of is "I am what you made me."
I’m sorry that you had to go through all of this. I hope you find someone who is more similar to you and really loves you.
Anyway, I suggest you to stay away from tinder and other dating apps. They are extremely toxic.
As someone who actually is on the spectrum , and was diagnosed for that, ptsd and ADHD- I hate the self diagnosing people … mostly those who refuse to actually turn their theory into a real diagnosis with a doctor.
Few months ago I was talking about my diagnosis here in our complex and a Gen Z Canadian walked up to me asking what video I watched to come to these conclusions cause she thinks she has all of my conditions as well. Sigh.

@bruhmoment5974 Hey, it's a video about wokeism. Bro knows about osmium-grade dense people :D
Both your given name and the name you go by are beautiful. I've always loved Michelle and I adore Misha. Misha was a name I suggested for my daughter, but my wife at the time shut it down.
If I sat down n someone asked my pronouns id say “im/gone and was/were” and stand up to leave 😂
😂 i have no qualms telling these people, for the short duration of this convo, its I/you.... as in I am leaving this conversation with you. 😂
@@ididntaskyouropinion i love that 😂
I was born in San Francisco. It's SO SAD the way it's falling apart 😭
Your advice is spot on! I really can't believe how much sense you have. Some of the questions you got were......duh!!! Great advice 🤙I hope the questions you answered were heard by the people that sent them.
Dirty Harry lived in San Francisco. Imagine if the movie were set in 2024. He'd just go on an endless murderous rampage.
Two questions that can really help with having coherent conversations: 1) What do you mean by that? 2) Why do you believe that to be true?
#1 is a question of clarification. It helps us to understand what the other person means and can help defuse the rhetorical force of another person’s claims. For example: “You’re just a bigot!” “What do you mean by ‘bigot’? And can you explain how that label specifically applies to me in this situation?”
#2 is a question of evidence. It forces another person to consider what proof/evidence they have for holding their viewpoint. It can help a person realize that they really don’t have good reasons for holding a particular viewpoint.
Questions (rather than statements) can help you maintain control of the conversation (in a way that isn’t aggressive or tyrannical) while not immediately forcing a person to go into defensive mode.
I recommend the book “Tactics” by Greg Koukl for more info on this topic. It’s written from a conservative Christian perspective but can be useful for anyone who wants to have better conversations with people they disagree with.
7:08 if the KGB infiltrator agent director had a Time Machine to verify the efficacy of the demoralization process he would say: “ okaaay… a bit overkill but this way we’re sure it’s gonna work…”
I have ADHD. I'm so disgusted with everyone using this as an excuse for poor behavior that negatively effects others and not taking personal responsibility. I'm grateful for my diagnosis because it has allowed me to find specific tools and strategies to help me be a better person, friend, partner, employee, etc. You can't demand that people accept poor behavior because you have a disorder. Maybe they can have compassion, but you need to work on bettering yourself
Some people have higher degrees of ADHD and need certain acomodations, of course people need to better themselves but some will be in a huge disadvantage and that's not something that can be changed with work, genetics do exist and we can't deny it.
Even therapists drink the woke cool aid lol. How can you be a therapist and not analyze this stuff and determine that it’s an unhealthy and narcissistic way to think?
I was a mental health counselor. I quit and became a blacksmith. I’m endlessly happier.
Thats where all the woke people go to work. Their degrees are useless for anything else but they somewhat can use it to have jobs where u work with people and “help” them
Soon-to-be-former-therapist here... Most therapists are these very same people. If you aren't, the bullying and straight up abuse you receive is ungodly.
Bacl in 2016 a lot of shops in the City of Orlando had the same policy of not being able to use the bathroom. Not sure how it is now since I moved years ago, but the homeless problem is only getting worse I assume since rent is increasing.
I think you're correct in your assessment. From what I hear from friends and family that either just moved from or still live in Oregon it's gotten worse and worse. Sad to see it happen. I just hope and pray that people truly are starting to wake up and see what is happening. Time to punish the criminals. NOT the law abiding citizens. What a time to be alive. Everything is so backwards, upside down in this crazy world we are now living in. Best wishes to you and yours my friend!
My sister bought into feminism and the woke mindset. We use to be really close friends, but now it’s like she’s constantly mad at me. Nearly everything I say sets her off on angry rants, and she’ll say I’m being condescending or misogynistic. She berates me for stuff that happened decades ago. She now thinks our brother is autistic, that I’m a closeted homosexual, and that our parents were abusive. The whole family has to walk on eggshells just to avoid her blowing up. And she’s _constantly_ on TikTok. Outside of arguments or drama, it’s all she wants to talk about. I call woke a mind cancer and I mean it, it’s like my sister died and an imposter took her place. She used to be so sweet and funny: the transformation is horrifying.
It’s like a disease, waiting to grab the gullible or meek minded and turn them into monsters. Hopefully they will understand their wrong-doings eventually, but I doubt they ever will.
You need to be there for her regardless. Continue to be that counterbalance to her rhetoric if she continues down that path. The best way to deradicalize someone is to simply be available to talk to despite whatever differences and/or disagreements you may have. Without that human connection, people like your sister will turn to stuff like social media as an outlet instead of interacting with other people in real life, which is what seems to be happening in your case. Remember that person-to-person interactions are important if you want to prevent people from becoming out of touch.
Most of the deradicalization I've seen was prompted by them getting cancelled themselves. Feeling how it is on the other side really makes people think.
One could say my own story is a story of deradicalization. Even though I wouldn't have considered myself radical, I've always been very scientific and fact-oriented, I was active in a leftist party.
Over time, a new generation showed up and replaced the old and the issues that we talked about changed from social issues to wokism.
I wasn't willing to just drink the cool aid (I always questioned everything, even if just for the sake of argument if I agreed - this is what I was taught to do to be a critical thinker and prospective scientist). Well, turns out these people can't argue and instead attacked me for questioning the narrative.
The weirdest parts were the ones where I actually agreed but wanted to think about potential counters to - you know - debate our actual political opponents. Even if I prefaced with "I agree, but could someone maybe say that... and what would we answer?" I would often get weird looks instead of a debate.
Being critical made me suspicious.
Well, after a few bigger shitstorms, I left as did most of my friends. The party used to get up to 10% in national polls. Now it gets 3%.
The one for the woman, tell your husband to take a break from TikTok and all social medias and just have a free internet month or week or whatever and it'll probably help his mental health as well like tell him to go outside in the backyard or something
If it doesn’t work divorce him

When I was in college, about 15 years ago, I saw a video on RUclips that was about how we shouldn't make fun of people for being gay or lesbian.
The video took place in an alternate universe where nearly everyone was gay or lesbian, and we followed a young girl, just starting puberty, who realized that she was a heterosexual. She feared being teased and ridiculed for this.
Her two mothers had a conversation about the heterosexual couple that moved in down the street, and had even put up a blue and pink flag to broadcast their identity. This girl was told to stay away from those kinds of people.
There was even something that suggested that the girl's school was putting on a production of the classic William Shakespeare play "Romeo and Julian.
When the other children at school find out that this girl is a *gasp!* heterosexual, they tease her, pick on her, and beat her up.
As part of this there is some name calling. They call her "a breeder".
...my question is this...we currently live in a world where less than 15% of people are gay, if we lived in a world where less than 15% of people were mating and producing offspring...wouldn't the population go down significantly?
Yup. As a gay guy, just because somebody is “unique” sexually or race wise doesn’t mean they should have a say over the majority. It’s called the majority for a reason. Identity politics are a joke.
Because time’s were different back then and people didn’t give a crap about censorship and in old bond movies that 007 used to slap women and make double entendres bond movies today are lame and lecturing
That last one was pure gold.
"What's that, you say you've never been victimized or oppressed? Well let's change that, shall we?!?"
I felt the same way about Paramore except I no longer consider myself a fan
I also wanna mention Hayley married a guy who she KNEW was cheating on his girlfriend, and she has assaulted security guards even spitting on one of them.
This is why I'm glad I graduated high school in 2006 and college in 2012. I didn't have to put up with this bullshit.
If you ask someone out, you should pay. Unless specified you’re expected to split the check. At no time should you invite a person on a date and then expect them to pay… what?! 😮
Just to mention that your furniture at the background is sooo slavic! Like every slav family has these. Love ur videos ❤
Years ago, I was on a date. We were in his car, I leaned forward to fix my shoe, he said my name, and the second I turned my head he kissed me. It was so sweet and so sexy. People like this are the reason romance is dead. God forbid a man try to surprise you today, they would be charged.
The thing is, he might be wrong and you wouldn't like it. Then you'd push him off and both of you would feel bad.
The issue with the current zeitgeist is that people way overcatastrophize this as if you'd be traumatized and broken beyond repair by one unwanted kiss.
When you brought up the point that it's not a good thing that people were embracing their ADHD, reminds me of the channel "ADHD Love".
They're a channel dedicated to being more sensitive towards it and the woman is the main subject while the husband helps explain things. The wife looks like she makes the husband absolutely miserable based on their interactions, the content that they revolve their channel around and the simple fact that the man looks like he's ready to Minecraft himself, in every single video. He looks so done with life and acts like it's not the case.
To the guy who invited a lady out to eat with him and expected her to pay, I have a comparison situation: Do you invite someone to a party and they accept YOUR invite, arrive to YOUR party, do you ask them where is the food, drink and cake for MY party that I invited you to attend? NO! He playing people. Must think he all that and women want him so bad. The women that fall for this GRIFTER and pay that check can have him! Good luck! You will ALWAYS be paying in some way with them.
Wokies literally called me straight a T E R F just because I am a realist with roots from the Middle East. They said my "trunsphobia" is based on my heritage 😂 I thought they were leftists and not rightists 😂😂😂
I love that they have contradicted their agenda by being racist towards you😂
It's insane, because these are the same people that will go down swinging to defend a group of people who literally execute gays on the basis of religious extremism, but when someone reasonable approaches them and disagrees on the basis of sane cultural/religious differences? No, that's not right, and now we must be insanely racist to you.
It's a weird set of priorities. "Gays for Palestine" is a popular movement despite the illegality of homosexuality there, but if someone from the same region just says "yeah, I think women have x y z body parts" then *they* get the vitriolic reaction? Not the people who are *actually killing yall and making your personal lifestyle illegal??*
23:41 I would like to clear this up since most people don't understand it, LGBT community is basically a community for people who don't fit the norm, such as gays, lasbians, bi's, etc. Asexual means you do not experience sexual attraction to people but you can still experience romantic attraction. Aromatic means you can experience sexual attraction but not romantic. Aroace (Aromatic and Asexual) people don't experience either, they like platonic relationships instead of romantic or sexual. Hope this helps!
I had a little Bill Murray moment and when you said, “I have embraced my schizophrenia…” I said, “…and so have I.”
"we donated your $1000 bonus to black lives matter."
My response would have been to just outright tell them "that's theft. You took $1000 of MY MONEY and spent it without consulting us or obtaining our consent. That's theft."
But to be fair, I don't mind women saying "men do x bad things", as long as they are equally fine with me saying "women do x bad things". Generalizations exist for a reason.
i find men being much more open to admitting their problems than women nowadays. you can't even say a women is fat and has an eating problemm nowadays even when its openly clear its harming their health
Exactly this. And when they refuse, you know it's more about them pushing a certain agenda out of malice or ignorance.
I'm a woman, and I'm not afraid to admit that as a kid/younger teen the internet had me totally believing in the most random unsupported woke bs. I was a huge proponent of the whole "men suck, LGBT+ is oppressed and can do no wrong!!!" Group.
You know what they didn't tell me? Well, a lot of things, but the one I found to be most damning and disillusioned me from that agenda the most was domestic violence statistics. Both the implications that all men were abusers through twisted data and the fact that most relationships are hetero to begin with, but also through the subtle implications made through simple social decisions (like how everyone then, and now, comment "are the straights Ok?" Under every single account of DV, or just weird controlling situations, even if it was explicitly written by a gay couple.)
Come to find out, the most likely pairing between sexes to commit domestic violence or abuse... is lesbians. Like, *by far.* To add to that fun little Stat pile, the *least likely* group to experience domestic violence are those that *only* include men- i.e. Gay Men. If you are a man, your chances of being abused jump exponentially not when introduced to the intimate presence of another man (the people we've been told commit all the crime) but when they're introduced to intimate situations with WOMEN. The only place where this isn't true is in prison, but I think we can all agree that that's not a normal representation of society, considering they're all criminals and it's a sex segregated system (but female prisoners still report sexual abuse at a far higher rate than men, both from guards and other FEMALE inmates).
And all that then made me question what the point was. Because up until then, I thought I was fighting, if a little backhandedly sometimes, to help the most victimized group (women). But then, come to find out, women beat up other women way more often than men do. Wouldn't protecting women mean calling out their primary abusers? Wouldn't it be hugely beneficial to *lesbian* women- a class we'd been told is inherently more oppressed than straight women, by preventing their abuse at the hands of other women too?
Apparently not, because when I brought this up to my liberal friends at the time, I was told I'd believed inherently faulty and misleading data (versus the very strong sample sizes of 12 that prove your transgenderism theories, Nancy?) And that if I continued to criticize any women as capable of the same violence that men were capable of, that I would be ousted from my inner circles. They were quite literally so dependant on the shallow and unsupported idea that men are evil and women represent inherent good (except for in incredibly rare and often, to them, justifiable cases) that any attempt to actually improve the lives of certain women, or to call out other women, was met with vitriol.
The same thing is happening among the trans community right now. They legalized self ID as a valid form of identification for anyone who wants to claim transhood, despite all the dangers this possesses to women's safe spaces and sports and so on. But the same people who say "all you have to do to be trans is say you're trans" are the first to jump on the case of someone who represents them poorly by saying "they're not *really* trans" as if someone can't be trans and also a really bad person. And it's not a one off thing, either. They did it with "Karen" White, who was a man and transferred to a women's prison because they self identified as a woman, and then proceeded to assault multiple women (who would've guessed? They were in prison for doing that in the first place). Jonathan Yaniv, the dude who wants to show little girls how to insert tampons and keeps creeping in women's bathrooms under the guise of being a trans woman are widely discounted, but only because he decided to be a creep (plenty of people in the community were on his side, backing him up as a trans woman when he was only harassing waxing staff for not being qualified to wax male genitalia). Hell, even people who have questioned themselves intensely, and visited gender clinics, and expressly said "I think I'm trans and actually a woman" have been discounted because they went on to do bad things. That description I just laid out describes Ted Kosinksky- the Unabomber- who questioned his gender identity and visited multiple gender clinics frequently and spoke about it in his own personal journals that were recovered from his home. But apparently some random trans Healthcare "authorities" have decided that there's absolutely no way he was trans. Why or how have they come to this decision despite the fact that it appears Ted thought about this a lot? Nobody knows.
Anywhosies, sorry for rambling, I just was reminded by your comment of how absolutely insane the commitment to a one sided "good vs evil" perspective is in a lot of left leaning circles, then and now.
@@sovietunion7643 a hundred percent. I have zero issues discussing what men in general do wrong cause I have no problem with admitting my own personal flaws.

Some people on the right are TIRED of hearing about patriarchy for the 10 billionth time while women are an objectively privileged class.
Which is absolutely fair, I grew up in the most feminized society on the planet, all my time in school I was told how good women are and how bad men are. So I am pretty fucking tired of hearing it again, while women explode with rage at the first hint that they might not be perfect angels.
Ive definitely had bad interactions and issues with both genders. I do feel less safe around men because I'm less able to defend myself, but girls can be just as bad and it's always going to be a game of "sort out the crazies".
6:35 My sibling is trans and assumes EVERYTHING is an attack and then uses their mental health as ammo against anyone and everyone. He's 19 and lives with my mom and has no job because he refuses due to “mental health” and will yell at my mom and call her abusive when she tries to get him to do chores. He will throw “autistic fits” and demand that my mom come home early from work to feed him and do his laundry. He even once tried to convince her to quit her job because he “couldn't handle” her working so much because he needed her to take care of him. When she said that he was an adult and could feed himself take his own dog out and do his own laundry, he told her that she signed up for this when she decided to have him. It's absolutely psychotic and manipulative. She's only just now starting to see how toxic he is as in the past several years she has lost friends and pushed away family in his defense. I almost had to cut her off from me and my kids because she was enabling his behavior. I cut him off over a year ago and for a while I was the devil for “abandoning” him. Thankfully she is starting to see the light.

This all has its roots in the sexual “liberation” movement. It was bound to happen after that.
Also: fo sho. Last Christmas, at a family gathering, I was asked how many more kids I want (I have two now), and I said, “As many as I can have.” The lady across from me practically started crying, and said-I kid you not-“But what about global warming??!”
These people have all their priorities backwards.
Apparently for them, not having kids is going to fix global warming somehow, even though the United States isn’t even close to 1st in population.
I mean I’m personally against people having a lot of kids because there is no way all of those children will be loved equally. Unless you’re superman or something, but no parent is perfect. That’s just my opinion. I tend to think about the reality of a kid living with multiple siblings. It does create competition and could also bring resentment. Saying this as 3rd born out of 4 kids. I love my siblings but growing up was messy. You’d have to be pretty confident as a parent to have multiple kids.
@@doid4354 The other thread is no longer taking comments, so I'm responding here.
It is important to note that Thomas Steensma, the researcher behind the study you mentioned, stated that his aim was to find predictors of persistence, not compile comprehensive numbers on desistance. He used diagnostic criteria from 1994 that focused on cross-gender preferences rather than body dissatisfaction, meaning there was no clear distinction between those wanting to alter their bodies and those simply wanting to try different gender roles. If the study was done again today, he's said that many of those kids wouldn't have even been considered trans in the first place.
In a 2013 follow-up, the desistance rate was down to 63% from the previous 84.2%, but 30% of this group stopped contacting the clinic without reporting remission (i.e. remission was simply assumed rather than confirmed). Also noteworthy: 30% of the *total* study cohort of 217 was initially classed as "subthreshold," meaning they didn't meet *all* the criteria for a diagnosis to begin with. There's a reason he's said in interviews that his studies should not be seen as the final word on desistance. They very explicitly were not set up to confirm anything about the desistance rate, which is why his standards for this were not more rigorous. So long as he could find any patterns surrounding persistence, that was his original aim.
I don't bring this up because I wish to deny that regret exists or to deny that there are kids who grow out of it. But given that satisfaction rates among those who transition are well over 90 percent, this suggests that resistance to transitioning is markedly more ideological than it is rooted in fact-based concern.
@@olivesama I still believe it’s wrong to give “affirming care” to kids because there is still a chance they will regret it. The stats may show that most people are satisfied after transitioning, but that isn’t a good argument for *kids* to be able to make that choice. I’ve got no problem with adults transitioning, but it is not ethical to transition children.
@@doid4354 There will never be a set of procedures with a zero percent regret rate. Lasik eye surgery, knee replacements, and prostate cancer surgery have higher regret rates than gender transition, yet we don't curtail such treatments on that account.
What are the ethical implications of allowing someone to go through puberty, to grow up, to realize in adulthood that they are trans, and then to have them endure the long process of undoing the "damage" (for lack of a better word) of their first puberty when transitioning earlier in life could have prevented it? Of course, if someone starts transitioning at 18, that can still be plenty of time to "pass." I've seen many such cases. One's bones have still not finished fusing by 18. But what about those who developed early relative to their peers and for whom puberty was more physically pronounced? Such people might have gained much from starting before 18.
I've seen some people say that they can only bring themselves to accept trans people who "pass," but then those same people proceed to support policies that would make it harder to so.
I work for a very liberal state's government that has many ridiculous meetings. One was supposed to be about issues going on in the world that are impacting us. Some people that descend from middle eastern countries said they were feeling uncomfortable with being in public because of the controversy over Palestine and Israel, which was actually a really interesting topic. However, a woman then hijacked the meeting and talked about how oppressed she was being misgendered (they/them pronouns). She even said she was being discriminated against by people in previous meetings. She got more sympathy than anyone else because she started breaking down crying about it. But my favorite meeting ;was for our veteran's day meeting being told the toughest job in the military was being a spouse. Thank god my camera and mic were off because I was cracking up.
sigh. my only friend up here is one of those 'caring about mental health' while having a hugely messy room. i know i am not the worlds best house keeper (my room is almost always messy), but when looking at it starts irritating me, i clean up to make myself feel better. my friend on the other hand cannot even be bothered to clean up before having someone over, and then feels the need to apologize the whole time about the mess--- but i can't tell them cleaning it up would make them feel better. this friend is trans and i keep wishing they will wake up to what their buying into, but i know i'd lose the only person i have to hang out with outside of family if i speak up. I need more conservative friends that have my interests, but looking for ppl like that is damn near impossible. (I love Danmei and Anime/Manga and chinese Wuxia/Xianxia, among other things that tend to also be popular with the left.)
can I just add that I'm Christian, and this person thinks that abstaining from doing certain things **cough** by oneself periodically is punishing yourself? I have tried to explain repeatedly that it's a matter of self control and nothing more... but they clearly don't get it and given the state of their issues currently I don't think they've ever been taught self control.
it's really frustrating because we get along on most things, but when it comes to mental health, their gender dysphoria and political things, i have to bite my tongue and redirect constantly.
It's one of my pet-peeves that everyone these days self-diagnoses themselves as ADHD. Guys, there are a LOT of traits that ADHD people have that are in literally EVERY human. ADHD is about MAGNITUDE of behaviors, not simply having them. Every single person's mind can, and WILL, wander. Everyone finds it difficult to focus on tasks they don't like.
I believe everyone wants an excuse. The best, most valuable thing you should have learned from school is HOW TO DO THINGS YOU DON'T REALLY FEEL LIKE DOING. You need to be able to perform tasks you don't want to do REGULARLY. Ok, just cause this can be mentally difficult does NOT mean you have ADHD.
Misha, I love how you so quickly said "leave" when you heard her propose an open relationship. This rampant female degeneracy is empowerment has tarred my view of women to the point of heavy cynicism, disgust and mild disdain. I'm glad to know it isn't simply the case that every woman is this way.
Both my parents sides are from extremely catholic countries so they kinda steered me towards more conservative girls/women to date in my life and I haven’t had a single relationship end up in flames like my liberal friends. Big thanks to them 🙏
I’ve got AHDH and peer reviewed autism (I don’t have a diagnosis but the psychiatrist and therapist I see are both like “yeah prolly”, but I haven’t asked them about tests yet, since it’s a new place) and yeah my room gets messy and it’s kinda gross. BUT, I still clean up. It gets to a point where you have to do something and can’t ignore it anymore. People who live with just rotting garbage and soiled clothing in their rooms are so gross
A lot of the chaos around this stuff seems to pivot around the coopting of language. "I don't think of you as a man any longer," actually means "men are not those beings with XY chromosomes that have organic penises at birth and facial hair. 'Men are just anyone I don't like. And I like you so you can't be a man." That's just my theory on that particular situation anyway. It reminds me of how a few years ago "right wing" actually came to mean "anything I don't like". Even the word "racist" moved quickly in this direction.
mishka is actually hilarious and relatable😭
My mom is ukrainian and my dad is american (but hes more of what you would call a "traditional man") and so my mom basically made him more eastern-european-acting and if I went home to tell my mom and my dad that he asked me to pay... or asked to split the bill.... it might be over for that man
haha yess i’m glad, eastern europeans are the best people :) the same thing happened to me actually
i honestly find eastern european so interesting because they are wholly against the weird leftist BS happening in western european nations. i guess seeing communism in your country makes you pretty aware of the problems with leftist beurcratic control
@Anitak.-rj1ek so real
As eastern european? Yeah it would probably be over
It is crazy to think that they are discriminative, even though they do claim to accept everybody 😅
About safe injection sites: it really decreases using drugs in bathrooms, but they must have substitution ie. methadone and conection with rehab facilities
Why not just public restrooms/ cel phone charging stations? Pay somebody to clean them. Yes, it'd cost tax money but you'd make more in sales tax if customers had a cleaner downtown to go to.
@@3namechangezalowdevry90day7Because that doesn't really solve the issue, and it's still putting people at risk- just different people.
Clean restrooms and amenities like cell charging stations are cool, and everyone would be happy with them. But that doesn't fix the addiction problems among homeless people. They're going to shoot up in the bathroom if you let them- neither of those ideas stop that. Sure, you can have someone in there cleaning after every single person, but because you haven't discouraged shooting up, you're just putting them at a higher risk of getting stuck with needles or infected with other shit, because now instead of dealing with needles once a day when cleaning, they're doing it after every use.
While I have qualms with safe injection sites, especially with how they've been handled in places like Canada and the US, they're steps in the right direction assuming they go hand in hand with rehabilitative programs (my problem is that they don't currently in most places).
@@anathemat-002 The thing is, all this stuff costs $$$$. You have to start with fighting crime and making the cities livable or there's no sales tax and property tax to fund ANYTHING. Since the funds are limited, triage has to happen. Start by helping those most likely to get back on their feet. Clean public restrooms. Then patrolled parking lots for the working poor to sleep in their cars between shifts. 24 hour warming/cooling facilities. THEN capsule hotel style shelters for those who are drug tested and will keep them clean. Once you have that in place THEN you can build a rehab and give the junkies the choice of rehab or jail.
I was a hostess for a “casual upscale” restaurant and we were told not to say “hey guys”. We could only say “hey everyone/everybody” because it’s more “inclusive”
Great video, just one tiny thing on the video you said about asexuals not being attracted to anyone, I'm asexual myself and for most asexuals it's just we don't want to engage in sexual activity but we do feel regular romantic attraction just not sexual attraction.
I used to call myself asexual just so people wouldn’t bother me about anything sexual or romantically related. It’s honestly one of the easiest ways to get people to drop the topic without being bothersome about it.
I appreciate that you can see that the specific cities here in Corruptifornia are the problem, instead of thinking it's the entire state like many think. The majority of the state is red, but the big cities barely out vote us.
Wait i love that, Corruptofornia.
I could also suggest commifornia for special use.
@@ramtins9258 yeah I have been calling this not so great state Corruptifornia for years. 😂😂😂
@@jatbatman how do you live there man ?
I mean how can you survive with such intolerant people who claim they are tolerant unless you are a con and not a lib.
How do you make friendships ?
How do you work with people ?
Do you not feel isolated ?
@@ramtins9258 because I live in a small town in a conservative county, and only go to the liberal areas on rare occasion. It's better that way. Not perfect, but manageable.
@@jatbatman ahhh I see. That makes sense. The cities, specially big ones are all blue.
Your content has become therapeutic for me in this crazy world, lol
Thank you for making such good, rational , content in these crazy times ❤
Not my experience but my sister's. My sister went to College to do Medical Science and one of her 'friends' she used to hang out with started transitioning to a boy (from a girl) and she changed her name and everything which is fine but she had the attitude that everyone should get used to it like nothing ever changed. Like a lot of people who are more geniune would be more reasonable and wouldn't blast that they're trans to every single person. Also she used mental health as a big excuse for not doing basic things like homework and she would have multiple 'episodes' of sudden shaking when it came to the pressure of school; she also would come to school every now and again and randomly announce to my sister that she now had XXX disorder. I totally respect trans people and their decisions but this person was just unhinged and not stable.
I agree about not using mental illness as an excuse for being a slob. I'd extend it to other illnesses too. My ex gf had MS ( early stages) and for way too long I tolerated bad attitude and slobbish behaviour. It was inexcusable but I let it go because she always blamed it on her illness.
I walked with artists, you can guess it, 99% of them are woke.
I had a crucifix under my shirt, which, even if i'm a christian, i got as a gift from a family member that is living on another country, so it is personal. When i bent down to get some stuffs after a bazaar ended, my crucifix fell of the shirt and a guy saw and he acted like a vampire, he got his hand over his face and said "Are you- are you a christian?!".
Nobody talked to be me on the art scene, so i left that place and i began fixing electronics for a living, arts doesn't pay well anyway...
Ironically, the bazaar space was in fact offered by a church for "cultura reasons", and they don't cared about making profane arts on the place, drawings of "male parts" and "male parts inside the male part from behind".
One moment a mother with her son went to that table and pushed her son as fast as she could and left the place. Then artists ask themselves why nobody cares about [modern] art anymore. I would do the same if i was that mother.
Another case was when a feminist made a punk show on another bazaar, note, this place was public and on the downtown, everyone could enter the place, it was a state institution.
And those feminists showed their "upper parts" and later laid down on the floor and began to "touch that area". Note, majority of the people around them were around 16 yo, and there were some children there, that, of course, their mothers took them out.
Hm If id get invited and the guy clearly says "i'll invite you to dinner" then i expect him to pay. If he says "wanna have dinner together or eat out together", i expect we both pay for our dishes
This. 💯
I study cinema in an insufferably woke college in Brazil.
Almost done with it, and im pretty sure im the only conservative in there. Since im pretty discreet, it has been a generally chill experience, sometime even fun (when i poke some teachers with the "conservative stick" if i know i won't suffer a lot of backlash for that, for example, lol). But i _have seen_ some appalling stuff.
Just one recent example: there was this class, where we were really behind on the program, because we had already missed so many classes (for a lot of reasons). Nevermind that. One day, that teacher is like "no class today, we need to go to the auditorium RIGHT NOW for a SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT talk). It was an american journalist from The New York Times (you see where this is going), who were presenting one of their programs (where people from all over the world make shorts, fictional or not). He presented it as something like "we want to see originality, have no political bias, we are completely impartial and fack check everything bla bla bla...". Then he presented as an example this emotionally charged mini doc by a brazillian filmmaker, about a completely inocuous subject, you see: abortion. It was shamelessly manipulative, pro choice, and absolutely BRIMMING with disinformation. Coincidentally, it was at the time the Supreme Court in Brazil was discussing decriminalizing abortion, but thats just a coincidence, see.
But i also have witnessed some hilarious embarrassments. One time, they invited an executive producer (she is very accomplished and helped the productuin of "Cidade de Deus", one of the best movies ever made). A student in the audience baited her with the usual woke question: "as a woman, tell us of some of the negative experiences you had on this male-dominated industry that is cinema, blablabla...", only to get a very blunt "never had any" as a response xD. Moments like these always makes me chuckle (internally, of course, i don't want to get lynched).
I see stuff like this (like these two examples, i mean) everyday :/
Seriously? Abortion is a *_crime_* in Brazil? That's insane.
@@IlBiggo As it should be. We're not too fond of the idea of murdering babies.
Nevertheless, in some cases it is legal, like grape or if the mom's life is at risk. That was one of the lies in her documentary, btw. She said her life was in danger because of the pregnancy and couldn't get an abortion because it is a crime in Brazil, which it wouldn't be true in her case (that is, even if we assume her tale was factual).
@@fernandofaria2872 Re: "murdering babies", I'm not ready to face on youtube a discussion which in the civilized world took many decades to reach a conclusion that finally gave women the right to be human beings instead of baby factories.
But I get it, religion is a nasty mistress.
@@IlBiggo Of course you're not ready, you would lose. Your little strawman there proves how disingenuous you are.
@@fernandofaria2872 Did you miss the part where the rest of the world considers abortion an option?
I was at Walmart* trying buy some cream for my sisters allergy causing puffy eyelids. Everything was behind glass. I couldn't help but think how much human time was being wasted by having everything behind glass. Probably 5 other people waiting for products. Well, after using the internet to figure out what cream to buy and finding a person to unlock the glass. The lady informed me that the lock on the section didn't work. It was right in the middle so we couldn't get to it via another section. So much time is wasted by tolerating dishonest and lying. I used to work at a mechanic shop across the street from a mom and pop hardware store. They let us go in and grab whatever we needed, fill out a receipt by hand. And then they billed us weekly. This caused us to buy a lot more from them and lead to better faster repairs. Since we knew we didn't need to wait in what could be a long line. We also saved money since we didn't need to stock any common hardware.
* I know that was my first mistake
Regarding poking fun: If a woman starts joking about men, I'll just retort in a cheerful manner "At least we can drive lmao". If she laughs, she's a catch and we can make fun of each other. If she doesn't laugh, she just got filtered.
equal rights equal fights. you don't get to have all the benefits of equality with none of the downsides.
Personally, I don't like to hear sexist jokes about women so I will never do sexist jokes about men.
@@Cartoon-2lk you must be so much fun to hang around with
I love sexist jokes for both genders
@@Cartoon-2lk I mean, that's fair. Personally I don't like puns, so I don't tell pun jokes. Humor is subjective and broad. As long as you don't shit on other people for engaging in humor that you don't like, that's perfectly fine. Not everything is for everyone, and I feel like we've all really forgotten that, on both sides.
All great stuff as always. The one comment I didn't understand was "I'm literally in Canada. How am I supposed to get sun?" ...I've lived in Canada my whole life, we get tons of sun. We don't live in igloos either :)
The second story about the woke girlfriend was hilarious in the way that every single thing she claimed, was a trend on TikTok. Every. Single. Thing.
Also I love Harry Potter and JK Rowling and always have.
Another thing, I used to watch Doctor Youn (holistic plastic surgeon) on here and really liked him. But then he made a video basically justifying surgery for “trans kids.” I was so disappointed in him. A few other people were as well. I unsubscribed. So yeah, I hate when people you like end up doing stuff like that.
These people must absolutely hate PD Eastman’s PJ Funny Bunny story about the rabbit who wants to leave home to become a variety of animals instead of being a bunny- he tries about seven animals before he realizes he would rather just be a bunny. He returned home and is grateful for all the qualities of being a bunny that irritated him at the story’s opening
Alright fellas, I got one for you aswell.
I grew up in Bavaria, a traditionally rather conservative state in Germany. Last year I started attending a university to study IT and electronics. Since I'm also personally invested in societal shifts and happenings I wondered, if I could observe the same "woke madness" with which, you Americans have to deal with, at my University. After all, Germany shares with Britain the title of being the European America. I could not come up with much due to my institutions nature of being mainly focused on mathematics, physics, chemistry and other scienetific subjects. Seems like that deters most of the crazies. Go figure. Sometime later I got in contact with a guy from the University of Augsburg and he told me that some of his fellow students were of the extremely left leaning type which heavily influenced the campus. Once again, some time goes by and suddenly a headline hits the news that the student parliament of the University of Augsburg proposed the installation of gloryholes in the main hall (look it up if you don't believe me). The argumentation was that the life of studying is sometime "stressfull" and such an installation would help relief stress and anxiety. Furthermore it would present the university as a space which is "critical of heteronormativity". Sex for everybody, straight or queer, since gloryholes are anonymous. Naturally the proposal was immediately shot down and put away in the files as joke. The thought of wanting to turn a embassy of education and reason like a uni into a wh*rehouse is just baffeling to me. This wasn't directly my personal experience but I thought it to be so redicolous that just had to mention it.
Love your vids and best regards :)
The Augsburg incident is genuinely disturbing to see actually occurred. Who comes up with this stuff? They need kicked out or fired.
Glory holes are for pen*ses, right? So how is that for everyone? Also, YUCK
verrückt
Miss Misha, somehow I'm only just now finding your channel, so I'm bingeing. Feeling the need to thank you for teaching your generation as you are. Keep up the great work!
What confuses me the most is the fact that in the US being politically left equals having gender dysphoria, purple hair, a septum piercing and letting everyone know what your preferred pronouns are. And that's it.
