0:00.0 | Chris Evans is facing a growing anger from the left over his meeting with Republicans. |
0:06.0 | Now, you may know Chris Evans from the Marvel films where he plays Captain America, |
0:09.5 | and you may also know him from his various controversial statements he's made |
0:13.0 | usually about Trump and Trump supporters. But it was recently announced he was starting a |
0:17.0 | website called A Starting Point, where he would sit down with Democrats and Republicans |
0:20.8 | to talk about various political issues. Naturally, the left is angry because they call this |
0:25.7 | both sidesism, that there aren't two sides to an issue. There's only one side to climate change, |
0:31.2 | and there's only one side to immigration, and talking to anyone else is to justify ideas that |
0:35.8 | aren't correct or right. This is a problem the left has. In my line of work, I've tried interviewing |
0:41.6 | people, and typically it is very, very difficult to sit down with the left because they don't want to |
0:47.7 | validate or platform your ideas, but the reality is in this country. Around half of the people who |
0:52.7 | live here hold differing views. So it's not about two sides or both sides, it's about complex |
0:58.0 | issues. While I think it's great that Chris Evans is launching this program, I don't think it will |
1:03.1 | be effective, but I think it's a good starting point. However, the left doesn't think so, and they're |
1:08.4 | kind of pissed off about it. So today, let's take a look at what's happened with Chris Evans, |
1:12.2 | and talk about the issue of the left not wanting to come to the table to have a discussion. |
1:17.2 | Now, before we get started, I want to give a quick shout out to today's sponsor, Virtual Shield, |
1:21.3 | who helps make this podcast possible. Virtual Shield is a virtual private network service that can |
1:26.5 | protect your data from prying eyes as you browse the web. You can find out way more at hidewithtim.com, |
1:32.2 | but essentially. They're people like hackers, they're governments, corporations that want to track |
1:36.4 | and even steal your data, and a virtual private network like Virtual Shield can help keep that data safe. |
1:42.4 | Now, we don't expect people to break into our homes, but we put locks on our doors and windows anyway. |
