Well, so I have a hypothesis about what happened. It's something I'm sure you've heard about. A lot of the audience will have heard about, but you had a slow march through the institutions of a hyper progressive agenda to elevate marginalized, so-called marginalized voices. And when you have 30, 40 years of putting students through that cultural machinery,

0:27.2

well, on the other side is going to be a culture of people who believe that America is

0:32.8

an oppressive nation.

0:34.2

It was founded on oppression.

0:36.4

That men are problematic, that men should feel bad about what they've done, about they should feel bad about their more masculine impulses and tendencies and those things are bad and that men are basically broken women.

0:49.3

And if we're going to fix you, you're going to act more feminine.

0:52.3

So people need a narrative.

0:55.3

They need to understand the world around them and a large way that they get that education

0:58.8

is through the school system.

And so again, if you spend 40 years putting people through that system, a system that is

despite the fact that men remain in politics, I would say largely because of biology. So I'm

1:25.5

sure you've seen these studies where it's like like if you show, God, I can't remember

1:30.7

if it's toddlers, but you show really young kids, just pictures of a guy's face from a real

1:37.1

election, and they can accurately predict the person that's going to win just based on the features

1:42.0

of their face. So it's like usually the

1:44.5

taller person wins. Like this is not culturally inculcated stuff. This is your history is a red

1:51.9

and tooth and claw thing. And when you want somebody to lead, you're going to want the person

1:55.5

that's going to be out front of the battle that has military intelligence, that knows how to take on a foe.

2:02.3
