Welcome to the Eric with Jackson Show. Why don't you pull up a chance and set it up?

0:14.0

There's a reason for fixing a learning thing or two if you can stand it.

0:17.0

It wouldn't hurt you none neither. In fact, you're some folks saying Eric wouldn't know whether the Scritch is watching or wanting to put dogs.

0:23.0

Honestly, who would he sit in anyhow? You don't do an idea. You'll come back now. You hear? Here's America sweetheart himself. Eric Matys.

0:30.0

Welcome to the Eric Matys Show. As you know, whenever I have an opportunity, I get the John Zmirak on the program. I had that opportunity. I seized it.

0:43.0

John Zmirak, how are you? I'm fine Eric. It's good to be on. Listen, you wrote an article about systemic injustice, about systemic racism.

0:52.0

I've been talking about this all week. What is your view, sir?

0:56.0

Systemic racism does not exist. It is a conspiracy theory that the radical left is using to try to destroy the whole American system of justice, of equity, of individual rights, and of the Christian vision of the human being as morally responsible for his own actions and for no one else.

1:18.0

I think you put it pretty succincts. You put it so succinctly that I think we're done with you today. That's amazing.

1:26.0

But you're what you just said. Many others have been saying it this week on this program. You could also say systemic racism is the sound of one hand clapping.

1:36.0

Yeah, it's it's the sound of your. Do you remember pizza gate, the conspiracy theory, the Democratic Party were trafficking children for sex trafficking ring.

1:45.0

Yeah, that went wild and one guy went and shot up a pizza rear in I think Maryland or Washington, Washington. Well, this is pizza gate with the mainstream media behind it.

1:57.0

But the problem is this is not a new story, John. This is not a new story. This is a movement that has been going on for, you know, effectively for decades, at least for years.

2:09.0

This is not just a thing that came up and will be dismissed. There are tons of people who have bought into this idea who have fooled in thinking this way.

2:19.0

And it's going to take a long time to make them understand that this is in fact wrong thinking. This is a fundamental on every level.

2:28.0

We're in the middle of a witch craze. Do you remember the sale reading of the sale of witch trials? I'm not old, but I know people who remember it.

Things were much used much much worse in Europe, in England and in Germany thousands of women were falsely accused and hanged or burned at the stake.

2:45.0

And it happened because respectable ordinary people didn't want to get on the wrong side of the bomb. If you deny that systemic racism exists as I deny that it exists.

2:57.0

Like I deny the existence of a Jewish conspiracy. Like I deny the existence of a Jesuit worldwide conspiracy. I deny the existence of systemic racism in America or any other Western country since the passage of civil rights law, since the end of apartheid in South Africa.

3:15.0

They do not exist anymore than a broad conspiracy of witches and warlocks and sorcerers existed in Salem, Massachusetts.

3:24.0

And for that people are going to say, well then you must be secretly racist too. You're part of the racist conspiracy. The way they said that people speaking up for justice and Salem were secret witches secretly elite with the devil.

3:36.0
