Should we be concerned about the right going bad? Let's be honest with ourselves. We are the ones who recognize that everyone is capable of evil. Whether you believe in a sinful nature or just the fact that everyone is capable of being pushed too far, today we will discuss the Lazy, the Crazy, and the Ugly as we consider the conditions and catalysts that could turn the right into the worst version of itself.

0:00.0 | Welcome back to making the argument. As you can see, I am not in the studio today, and that is because I am down in Richmond, but that is not going to prevent us from continuing to put out quality episodes for you. And today, we've got an interesting one. We're going to talk about what happens if the right goes bad, right? Is that something that could, is that something that's even possible. I mean, after all, if we are people on |
0:21.3 | the right in the conservative movement within the United States that believes in concepts like |
0:25.6 | objective morality and objective truth and reason and logic, then we have to actually come to grips |
0:32.0 | with the fact that, yes, it is, it is absolutely possible that the right could also go bad. |
0:40.9 | What exactly does that look like and what causes it? |
0:43.4 | Well, today we're going to go over kind of three categories, |
0:46.9 | which I have dubbed the lazy, the crazy, and the ugly. |
0:51.2 | And we're going to talk a little bit about some of the things that have been happening within the right, |
0:54.3 | specifically in the United States, but you could also extrapolate this out to other parts of the world as well. We're going to talk about some of the problems that we see coming up. |
0:58.2 | We're going to talk about why some of those things are taking place. And most importantly, |
1:02.0 | we're going to talk about how we avoid it and make sure that we actually stay true to the values |
1:06.8 | that we care about. All of that and more coming up on this episode of making the argument powered by Good Ranchers. Thank you so much for joining us as producer Hamilton. You may or may not |
1:15.2 | see my video, but if you don't, that's all right. We've got everybody here in the studio. We've got some |
1:19.3 | new processes that we're working out in systems and whatnot. But if you haven't already, we would love |
1:23.4 | to get to know you in our community chat, which you can join by going down to the link in the description. And again, thank you for joining us. All right. As always, I am your host, Nick Freitas |
1:31.1 | member of the Virginia House of Delegates, and I'm proving that by about because we're about to go |
1:34.6 | into legislative session here. And that's why I'm in Richmond with us, as always, my beautiful |
1:39.1 | bride, Tina Queen of the Bees. Hello, everyone. And then, of course, we have Master Hines. |
1:45.7 | That's right, a resident historian and political prognosticator. |
1:48.2 | Hey, Christian. |
1:48.9 | I have been looking forward to this episode ever since we recorded our right-wing backlash |
1:54.0 | episode last spring. |
