Today on The Matt Wall Show, Alejandro Casio Cortez says that it's more important to be morally right than factually right.

And this is obviously a stupid thing to say, but there's an important point about her comment.

A lot of people have missed. We're going to talk about that.

Also, the American Psychological Association says that masculinity is harmful.

And finally, why was Lil Wayne dressed like a kegler-elf on acid last night?

We got to discuss that as well today on The Matt Wall Show.

All right, let's talk about AOC, Alejandro Casio Cortez.

I just complained last week about people talking about her too much, conservatives talking about her too much.

And then here I am a few days later, like a hypocrite.

But I feel like it's not that hypocritical because I don't want to talk about her exactly.

There's just one thing that she said. One thing that's gotten a lot of attention, like everything else she says gets a lot of attention.

And it's also attracted a lot of criticism rightfully so.

But I think we're kind of missing an important point because there's something legitimately interesting and kind of instructive about what she said, but we're missing it.

We're missing it. So this was on 60 minutes, not long after she proposed that 70% tax, which would result in massive unemployment and destroy the economy.

But she said something, you know, on this during the interview, she said, I think that there's a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually and semantically correct than about being morally right.

Okay, so she's complaining that people are more concerned about being factually right than about being morally right.

Obviously, as many people have pointed out, the number one problem here is that this is what we call a false dichotomy. It's a false choice.

She's making us choose between two things when actually we can have them both.

You can be factually correct and morally correct. Most of the time, the two things aren't even necessarily, you know, they aren't necessarily related.

So if I were to say that a triangle has three sides, I am factually correct. Am I morally correct? Well, it's a morally neutral thing to say. It's not, I don't think anyone would say that triangles are morally correct.

That's just what they are. It's just a matter of fact. But whenever you do or say, if you say something, if you make a point that is morally correct, then you are also going to be factually correct.

So I can say that abortion is morally wrong because you're killing a human being, which is morally wrong. I am both morally correct and factually correct.
