2:14.7

where apparently pretending that boys can be girls actually

2:18.1

does not prevent people from doing terrible, terrible things. And we get into the latest on

2:22.4

the economy. The economy is pretty good. So why are people feeling so down on it first?

2:26.4

We just looked at what's trending on Daily Wire Plus right now. And there it is, the real

2:29.4

history of slavery, episode one of real history with Matt Walsh. People are realizing that for decades, schools taught one version of the story, backed by institutions and Hollywood, and a lot of what you were told was just not true. All it took was one person to go back and actually check the facts. That person is Matt Walsh. All teachers should see it. Classrooms should show it. You can watch it right now. Real History with Matt Walsh is streaming on Daily Wire Plus. Also, the debates happen here on the show and now the takeaways can land in your inbox every week. I write a newsletter that distills a full week of analysis into one place. Consider it an end-of-week memo straight from my desk. It's a comprehensive look at the stories dominating the news. What matters? Why it matters? What's at stake is delivered straight to you every Friday to sign up for the Ben Shapiro Show newsletter. Be sure to follow me at the DailyWire Plus app or at DailyWire.com. You know, there's a professor named Gad Sad. Gadsad coined a term called suicidal empathy. And the basic idea is that you're so empathetic to somebody that it ends up harming you. So great example would be

3:25.4

the way that the West has approached immigration from third world countries. You feel bad for people.

3:29.8

You open your borders. Lots of people come in and then they harm your civilization. But it seems like

3:34.2

we are now moving beyond even suicidal empathy into homicidal empathy, by which I mean that your

3:39.5

empathy for someone actually gets them killed.

3:42.3

Great example of that happening today over in New York City. So Zaraan Mamdani, who promised,

3:48.2

as producer Sarah points out, the warmth of collectivism. Remember this? We're going to move beyond

3:53.3

the grittiness of individuality and we're going to bask in the warm embrace, the warm bath that is collectivism. It turns out people are freezing to death in New York City. They are freezing to death on the streets of New York City, despite all of his photo ops shoveling the snow. He was out shoveling. By the way, I was just in New York City. All snow ain't getting shoveled. All the trash ain't getting picked up. But here was Mom Donnie doing his level best to look as though he cares about shoveling snow. That's a lot of snow, Madud. I don't think you are going to be able to do that by yourself. And also, for a man who cannot bench press 135 pounds once, it's going to be a long day shoveling snow for Zorn, Mom, Donnie. I don't think the people of New York can count on his shoveling skills. He's usually shoveling horse crap. Anyway, here he is. Do you feel safer? Do you feel better, New York? Exactly. This Pete Buttigieg's riding the bike. This is, wow, everything is safe for now.
