I reminded you're spending wage much money. I myself on built, like hundreds of dollars a year too much money on that cell phone bill, but this is. Why should check out my friends over?
your talk, USA over a thousand of you have already done so. You ve made the switch from your overpriced wireless carrier to peer talk over the past couple of months. What do the rest? You waiting for if you're worth agency
rising T mobile. Your family could save over eight hundred dollars you're. Just by switching to peer talk, you get the same great coverage, because these the exact same towers, one the big carriers. You can even keep your phone and your number, but it will save a fortune by the waves. Your talk is the top rated wireless company by consumer affairs. I ve got the absolute best customer service team based right here.
in the United States. That sounds good. It gets even better because, right now you get unlimited talk text in six gigs of data for just thirty bucks a month and you're, saying yourself: ok,
If I use more than six eggs dead? Well, here's the thing: is you go over on data they're, not gonna charge for it grab your mobile phone down to fifty say Ben Shapiro to get started when you do not say fifty percent off your first month, Thou pound to five zero say then Shapiro, that's the key word to get started pure talk. Usa is simply smarter. Wireless save time save money check out pure talk, USA. Today, down to fifty and say he were Ben Shapiro for fifty percent off your very first month. Ok, so it is kind of fascinating that, in America's narrative discourse, there's a lie that is told that goes something like this. The great threat to american democracy lies on the authoritarian right. The authoritarian right is the biggest threat to american democracy. This is something the here very often media. Here too,
from Democratic Congress people and they want to use their example. What happened on January, sex now January, sex was an act of criminality, is an act of evil and there was something off or Terry into people attempting to stop the democratic processes from taking place and going forward and working for sure. You'll have to deny the presence of an authoritarian right to also recognised that the centres of power in
second life: the centres of institutional power in american life do not lie with the authoritarian right. They lie with the authoritarian left. Now it is worthwhile at this point to define our terms. So the did. The very term authoritarianism is very often used kind of vaguely what exactly
mean to be authorised area. People use it simultaneously to mean fascist and totalitarian authorised.
Rain has a little bit more of a specific definition. Typically, when you are talking about me characteristics of authoritarianism. So let's talk about that for a second, so that their been a bunch of studies on what authority areas and actually looks like what does it mean to be.
authoritarian, so there's a gun in Theodora Giorno and he very early in nineteen fifty wrote a book use at Frankfurt. School member is a marxist theorists in you write a book about authoritarianism, and his basic suggestion is that our authoritarianism was naturally rightwing phenomenon, she's, a marxist. Of course. He thought that anybody who disagreed with them, what sort of an authoritarian his ideas that America was right for the plucking America was about to fall into authoritarianism. Is America wasn't left wing enough?
is it worth is very famous book called the authoritarian personality in which, essentially, he suggested that Anti Semitism and authoritarianism we're outgrowth of a particular mindset that also sprang from capitalism. Nevis was untrue, but it did lead to alive. Study is what an authoritarian personality would look like, and there is a Harvard Social scientist in Robert Ultimate. He created a right wing. Authoritarianism. Scale is attempting to detect three particular character, traits their character traits of the authorities.
And cared for trade number one of an authoritarian was authoritarian, submission willingness to submit to established and legitimate authorities. Are you willing to do just go along with whatever the boss as too?
Why? For chairing aggression where you're going to perform aggressive acts on behalf of the authoritarian and three conventional ism, where you're going to abide by all of the approved social conventions? This was right, wing authoritarianism and for a long time, social scientists, who tend to be very leftwing, thought there is no such thing as left wing authoritarianism, left and authoritarianism. Just did not exist because leftwingers were progressive and wonderful and anti violence in pacifist it will. It is very clear at this point: there is left wing authoritarianism and, in fact,
scientists have found that left wing authoritarianism is quite common when University, Montana, Social, psychologist, Lucien, Conway, created
gale to mirror ultimately scale what he found is that the highest score for us or a tearing ism was for liberals and liberals have the highest court for authorised areas and he described authoritarianism. This way I hears here's what they said that these particular social scientists from University Montana about what left wing authoritarianism of light left wing authoritarianism if right wing,
it was about submission and aggression approved by the bosses and conventional is my belief that your traditional or
He is the only approved social conventions and that you get to shut down. Everything else then left with nothing.
Turning disorder, the mirror image, left and authoritarianism, bleed
and revolutionary aggression and the system has to be torn down. The hierarchy of power has to be destroyed, top down censorship they simultaneously believing in order to achieve utopia. You have to shut everybody else up and
really answer conventional wisdom, which these social scientists described, as quote reflecting a moral absolutism concerning progressive values and concomitant dismissal,
of conservatives as inherently immoral and intolerance desire for coercive Liam.
And left wing, believes in values and others and in
for social and ideological homogeneity in one's environment, in other words, a cramp down a particular moral world view that says that you are evil because you disagree. So those are the three characteristics of left wing authoritarianism
revolutionary aggression, approval of work, which is all over the summer when virtually the entire
left wing went to nodded at most damaging rights in american history, top down censorship directed at Group Authority. Right as a group, I thought,
as a means of regulating rightwing beliefs and behaviors. We have to have the bosses shut. Everybody else up, rather than ever,
retraining, you see inside your corporations or, as we will see, Democratic Congress functions on free speech
Nancy. Conventional is my belief that everybody-
Greece with you is inherently a moral, lesser person, immorally, lesser person, a bad person, these current procedure, these characteristics of left wing authoritarianism are extraordinarily common. Not only are the common their dominant in our institutional culture dominance, and you see it every single day those particular factors you see to work every single day. Some people say right when LA for terrorism is dominant again you're, not to deny the presence of right wing la for terrorism to recognise that the institutional power in our country is dominated
through our Terry and left us its exact top down censorship, but believe that their progressive worldview is the only worldview the matters and who believe in a revolutionary aggression designed a tearing down the core
what hierarchies a power that describes to a t what so many members of the Democratic Party are doing today. The reason I bring this up is because two members of Congress have no issued a series of letters to a variety of of platforms and common
measures designed to shut down descent, one member of Commerce in Indiana issue, the others aimed Jerry Mcnerney? They
this letter, and this is just full off oratorians stuff. We haven't first amendment for reason. It says Congress shall make no law Congress shall make no law a bridging freedom of speech to one of our members of Congress decided to do. Instead of making a law, they are going to essentially create agents in the private sphere to do their bidding. They know they can pass a law that bridges freedom of speech or to get
I can but Supreme Court. Instead, what they do is they say we will punish you if you do not do the censorship. We wish you to do in the private sphere. This is the new model not top down censorship, just from government but top down censorship with government actors using as a cudgel their power in order to beat corporations into submission and force those corporations to adopt the precepts of the authoritarian left and to set
from the top we'll get to what I mean by this in just one second, because we really are living in an authoritarian time. There's an authoritarian moment that we are watching unfold before us right now and it is deep and it is threatening and it has been creeping in american life.
And unfortunately, the authoritarianism of left was fostered in
rural and in very strong ways by the reaction to things like January sex. There was an opportune
for the authoritarian left to get the upper hand in american discourse, because free speech is now bad. Free exchange ideas is now bad, it could be.
Payment, if you say something they don't like it- could be dangerous, and so now is a great time to shut down for a speech to shut and individual rights and use all powers, but they have at their disposal in order to do so I'll explain in just one second cause. What were again, the fact that this is is
happening in the United States. Should scared living out of everybody who believes in individual rights right left her centre, I'm not saying everybody on left his men
the authoritarian, let them saying there is an authoritarian left and it is becoming the dominant mode in the Democratic Party and that's a very frightening thing gets morbid one second, first,
let us talk about that. I don't wanna go, do not operate start, because why would you want so great? I'm not apart start you're going to stand in line, then you can get to the front line then, finally, going to tell you that there too,
the part on line and other than their going up charge you for it. Instead, here is something you could do. You could just skip the middle man. Why just go to rock ordered outcome is much easier than walking into the
nor in people demanding quick answers and in ordering the part on line instead go to rock honour. I can get the parts of rock ordered outcome always offers the lowest prices possible rather than
aging prices based on what the market will bear the way that airlines do while just been up to twice as much for the same part hypothetically. You have need like arrow at Delphi after fourteen fifty six years,
assembly for two thousand by the two thousand ten hunt, odyssey annoy which popped in my head, but but did it cost three hundred and fifty four bought at a big chain store? That's the kind of thing you could get, a rock.
four two hundred and seventeen but recorded outcomes, family business serving auto parts, customers online for twenty years, had an
Iraq uttered outcome to shop or ATO and body parts from hundreds manufacturers best of all prices. Iraq ordered outcome are always reliably low and the same for professionals and do it yourself or so hadn't over Iraq ordered outcome.
Now you gotta maison selection, reliably low prices. All the parts your car will ever need. Rock Otto Dotcom had on over reach appear in their. How did you hear about us box? So they know that we sent you Rock Otto Dotcom Gacek, ok, so these two members of Congress have no issued a series of letters,
two common carriers telling them they want them about? Essentially boot vaccines, author and o N, N n NEWS
and this is the same sort of top down censorship. The you're, seeing called for by our savage media against social media relics, force social media not to disseminate information we dont like and their variety of games they play in order to shut down stuff. They don't like you, ll notice, one of the things that they have done, and this is a pretty clever sleight of hand. A lot of this debate really started after the two thousand sixteen election. In fact, nearly all of it before two thousand. Sixteen. There is a basic acknowledgement that there are alternative points of view that wouldn't be presented online. There are alternative point of view and to prevent it on POD Cason, talk, radio and that was annoying to the left, but they understood that you know you sort hasn't
deal with it and then after twenty sixteen there was this moment where the left aside- and you know what we don't. We shouldn't lost that election. In fact, me didn't lose that election. The only reason we lost that elections, because, because of russian disinformation now
this information? We are foreign intervention using false information in order to prevent the political process is in fact not something that the government has to just leave alone. A foreign. This information is something the government can step into. It does have Fort first member
consequences, but there are some precedent for the government stepping in and stopping for an actual interference with this information, but you'll notice that there's a verbal sleight of hand that went on where the media and democratic members of Congress and democratic in power they decided to shift from russian disinformation to misinformation. Now, there's a difference between this information and misinformation. Disinformation is active promotion of false material by foreign government s words. This information typically is right. You just information on on the soviets. Were the Soviets Judas information on you? Miss information is information that you perceive to be mistaken. There's no obvious intend for somebody to lie it, just something you perceive to be mistaken and so what the left us as they declare everything they don't like misinformation. If there's a narrative didn't like that's misinformation, so they ve no shifted over from
range sort of issues when it comes to speech a foreign disinformation, the new russian government promulgating falsehoods and middle of an election two core political speech which they then term misinformation, and then they set up a whole body. Fat checkers, whose sole design a pair
We is to label anything, they don't like not only misinformation but mostly false, and this is what you see: a political act bullet of actual label Brok about the statement that, if you like your doctor and keep it up
half true for several years and then only later will they be like oh yeah. That was the lie of the year
This misinformation, when it is convenient for them, and then they use those fake fact, trackers, though
no factors as an excuse to shut down at once. They don't like on social media and to suppress the reach,
or they go to Youtube in. They say you know what we know, that there are a lot of people out there like conservative material, but we are afraid that conservative material will lead to incitement. How well it's not
even that those people are doing anything that incite violence. Another Jordan Petersen does anything that incite violence is that you might watch George Jordan Petersen, video and then maybe you'll get dragged into a rabbit hole of right wing extremism. Ok, so so they their consistently broadening out exceptions under american law that do exist to free speech and
and then letting the exception to the rule rights? They will say: incitement is illegal. It's true incitement is illegal. Then they will say that stuff, that you're saying you know like normal political stuff, that's incitement or they will say. Yet. We understand that, MRS, that that your narrative is is opinion in it.
Protected, but it's really misinformation and misinformation is really kind of like this information and disinformation
something that the government can fight. So really, your speeches is like Russian. This information. This is the way that the left goes about their top down censorship and it is tied into
ideology that suggest revolutionary aggression against the system, because the system of
Visual rights is inherently discriminatory. According to the woke left, the woke left says that individual rights are biased because the people who are in a position to best exercise their individual rights are the powerful in our society, and those people must be brought to heal. So individual rights take a back seat to what the collective requires. Individual rights take a back seat to equity and his lips.
That you haven't left, then these are the elements of authoritarianism, revolutionary aggression, top down censorship, and certainly the most prevalent feeling on the left is that if you do
I agree with that. It is because you are a moral lesser.
Is there something wrong with you?

crush the pandemic if it were not for misinformation, disinformation, conspiracy theories and lies weird, because every single democratic member of Congress of fires, I'm aware backed mass protest in the middle of a pandemic, because they said that racial issues or a public health problem. In any case, these members of Congress,
we are concerned about the role agency plays in disseminating misinformation, misinformation again, it's that that's light ahead, miss information to millions of its universe, Directv in eighteen tv subscribers only rights you today to request additional information about what actions eighteen tee is taking to address these issues.

Of course, equal misinformation, you'll know they're very upset about misinformation on tv has led to our current polluted in visual information environment that radicalized individuals to commit seditious acts and rejects public health, best practices, among other issues in our public discourse, and so again the idea is that if you allow things I dont like, then the public discourse is polluted. Ok, while it may very well be polluted seriously, I acknowledge that there is information, the public discourse that I think pollutes the public discourse. For example, if a member of the Essen all cast put out the overt lie that the state of Israel has been at not having vaccines to Europe's citizens, that seems like something that pollutes the public discourse derive any right to call for us all to be cancelled on that basis,

Congress people have also been key factors and spreading this information related to the pandemic. A media watchdog found over two hundred fifty cases of covert nineteen misinformation on Fox news. In just one five year period, economist demonstrated Fox NEWS had demonstrable impacts on non compliance with public health guidelines.

Second. First, if you want to have time, you want to save money, there's a great way to do. It don't go to the post office.

the matter from these Democratic Congress, people sitting spent most of this letter so far, yelling about how they don't like Fox NEWS, no news max and other spewing misinformation. Now I've talked about some things.
Think that away in an unused mass in particular are pushing about the election that we're not true, and I saw no evidence for and in fact Owen and has been forced to back off some of its obligations with regard to dominions hinting with news MAX get. All of that is true, because there are slander and Lebanon,

That is the system working I'll, tell you what is not system working sitting members of Congress looking to have platforms de platform things they dont like that's dangerous! If that's what you're a terrier stuff, that's top down censorship in full authority and left us mode. So here's what these Congress people say. Remember this letter to the head of agency, yet to our knowledge, the cable satellite over the top companies that disseminate these media outlets to American yours

Another rights, in other words, if you don't mirror what we believe, we believe that you should shut them down, no notice. What they're doing again. Congress cannot pass a law shrinking spread of freedom of speech, but members of Congress can pressure company
like agency into restricting freedom of speech. There are centrally turning these companies into their agents in order to shut down free speech, which is authorised area stuff. It really is, it is governing working hand in glove with corporations to shut down your freedom of speech. Corporations know this by the way. What do you think that Coca COLA is doing diversity training there doing?

Read that the reason that all of these corporations are craving to the Woke mob is because the Woke mob has you rivers of power in a wide variety of institutions right now, not just at the top of corporations work there a lot of people who had corporations or sympathetic to the Woke mob, but they have the whip hand when it comes to the media. If the whip hand, when it comes to social media companies and most of all, they have the whip hand when it comes to members of Congress or willing to shut down free speech, not formally through passage of a war but through simple outside pressure, so say these Congress people it is.

it's also or place where we must think very hard about the lived experience of colleagues whose experience is different than ours. Task has been suspended for weak, and then it has been suspended, upgraded to indefinite. This is insane. This is insane

If this is the authoritarian left at work and they have the upper hand in major corporations on left, not just in the unless in major corporations across the board, so, for example, Ryan Anderson in excellent thinker over the Heritage Foundation, who writes on Trans issues in a really
The book we ve talked about on the show it's called when Harry became Sally, responding to the transgender movement, and it is illogical point by point debunking many, the myths surrounding transgender ism and gender identity and the
here that gender is entirely malleable. He goes wrong. Science, Amazon pulled his book. This week said today that there is that the best description of that would be a digital book burning when you actually remove a book from Amazon as it did Robert polemics. The goal of a book burning is to remove that book from circulation. They just remove
that comes on the heels of just a few months ago, the attempt by Amazon's remove Abigails friars book from their shells
they're doing into Ryan Right Anderson's. When heritage can Sally encounter books, which is the publisher, they said if Amazon, which controls most of the books heels in America has decided to deal, is to book with which some of its
generous agree. This is unconscionable assault on free speech. You'll have a chilling effect on the publishing industry and the free circulation of ideas. It must not be left to stand on challenge. That is one hundred percent right, but again the authoritarian left is on the march. The authoritarian left has cudgeled corporations into doing this, and serious work government cannot do I've. Gotten corporate
to mirror their authoritarian priorities? We already know that the media mirror their authoritarian priorities, the cheer the stuff on day after day. We know that social media has given me
during those authoritarian priorities because they are being pushed into it by the way differs
abrasion twitters enthusiastic. Did you at Facebook? I think reluctantly does it, but the reality is that when you have Congress sitting on your neck and saying they're gonna break,
you up, unless we do their bidding, will you and
That means I can find some literally said that she literally said to the heads of social media. If you don't police this contents, we're gonna have to do something about it ourselves. Here there is a violation of first amendment principles, but the authoritarian left is in control. So when people say that there is an author orator in right- and that is a grave-
the country there is a fringe authoritarian right. I'm lookin pretend that there are people on the right who believe
authoritarian principles, enrollment democracy, very much or who think that democracy so improperly functioning and we need to overthrow it or stuff like that. There are
People who believe that that is a small number of people
mainstream. Democratic party apparently believes that it is ok to use
emissions of power. They have an american corporations in american institutions, at universities, in the media and in government in order to cram down and anti. First amendment antifreeze speech, Anti liberty position as a mainstream left position. The authoritarian left went to war with the liberals and the authoritarian left, apparently one that is worth things currently stand already in just a second we're going to be getting to Joe Biden, who are apparently is a good president according to the press, because he is very empathetic. That's all the matters that he's empathetic doesn't matter. That is pushing policy. It makes no sense. He sympathetic, because that's all we care about these days or gets more of that interest one.

Already. Meanwhile, Joe Biden did a commemorative events for fun.
Hundred thousand american lives lost of nineteen. Obviously, that is a massive tragedy. Every one of those lives lost is indeed a tragedy, and that the goal here was really twofold. One was for him to demonstrate empathy. As you will see, this is the bottom line right. This is the line all throughout the campaign. Is that Donald from had no sympathy? But Joe Biden is a man of empathy and is what the media like about it is that he is capable of emotion, and we know that that is his threat
just think about things on genuine sure. All that I am sure that a lot of his emotion is genuine. That's fine emotion doesn't happen to solve problems. Very often emotion gets in the way of solving problems, and I don't judge prison
on how much empathy they have. I judge President's on how well they do in doing the things they are supposed to do. Our than my plumber has empathy outcome with my work has empathy and I don't care what the president has empathy. I'm very I've been clear about this, since the ghetto, in fact, their good studies to show its sympathy, is useful in politics, because it allows you to think about a wide variety of people who are not. You.
Empathy is actually problem. Empathy is where you put yourself in somebody else. Issues sympathy is where you sympathise with somebody else's positions. Empathy makes you elevate certain people above other people, because your empathizing with them right so empathy can actually be a problem in politics. There is a great book called against empathy via by a psychologist all about this, about how it, in future, how in politics, it's kind of a problem, in any case
Joe Biden does this event and in the middle of the event, he basically is that the goal of the event is not only to to demonstrate empathy, but then to suggest that people who disagree with his gun than the people who don't agree with the way his approaching policy are not perfect or that that is what politics usually is is trying to create,
a level of of moral superiority for yourself and make our opponents seem Morley inferior. So Joe Biden does this event, and he says, for example, is TAT
and the politics and misinformation. Ok, we ve been talking about four weeks of this point. Joe Biden has been achieved. Purveyor of covert misinformation, since his accessions to the Office of President he's put out the idea that there was no covered plan, a lie. He suggested that the covered vaccine plan did not exist
he has had people promoting the idea that teachers cannot go back to school safely. Right now, a lie. The president of the United States has been overtly using teachers union talking
words and just shoving them into CDC standard, which is disinformation and misinformation, is left likes to say, goodbye,
Here is Joe Biden nonetheless saying that his opponents are the ones who are promoting politics and misinformation. He's the president using it to do this routine anymore. Now is the time for you actually do your job. We must end the politics of misinformation, provided families.
News in the country as cost too many lives already. It's not Democrats and Republicans were dying from a virus. It's our fellow Americans, it's our neighbours. Our friends are mothers or fathers, our sons and daughters. Husbands, wives, we have to fight this together as one people as the United States aware that that is such a string of platitudes. What does that mean
What does that mean? Can we get specific here if, if people are saying they should go out and you should congregate with other people and there's no risk of covert if you, without vaccination or anything, and they should not? Where am asking not socially distance, yet its spread the virus, because if you say that, then that would be an end. You say it's not gonna where the virus that's misinformation, but if we are talking generally, as Joe Biden says, that that misinformation is the cause of the virus spreading
I noticed something which is the Andrew Cuomo. Your favorite government litera governor literally lied to the american people, whose own constituents to the families of people who died he likes,
whose fellow democratic legislators and your administration would even say that, and then you have the temerity to get up and one of these events
and say something like we have to stop the mission, for
should the politics I dont, believe you, I dont, believe it you're interested in that President Biden. I wish that I believed you, but I dont, but again the goal here is just to get media to to cry over Hamlet,
he would you did successfully. Here is CNN John Kang saying you know, he's sympathetic, that's really the thing! The matters is the empathy, the empathy, the empathy you not, I noticed
actually more important any empathy reopening the schools in getting people to vaccines they need and also not telling people. The dioxin is not going to allow us to get back to regular life. You wanna talk about putting out misinformation habit. The idea that we that we believe that you're gonna transmit the virus at the same rate weather and I get the vaccine get suggestion has been put out. There is absolutely evidence free bats.
Information. The vaccine does lower not only a risk of death to something like ninety nine percent risk of death goes down. It was
serious illness goes down well with ninety five percent, but also your risk of transmission goes down by something like ninety percent. According to the latest studies
its misinformation suggest otherwise, but we don't care about that. All you care about is the Joe Biden is caring person. He cares about you, ok, here's the thing. Let me just tell you a little secret Joe Biden, maybe occurring person. The government doesn't care about you cause. The government has no your name, your taxpayer, that's all becoming here until the gunman cares about you're. Just a you are just a tool for them: Yuri Widget, to the government of Pilgrim, the former senator from to access it. He he was once told in a hearing that by some witness that that that witness cared about his children and pilgrims had really what are their names. That is it that is
exactly how should respond when someone from the governments has I care about you, your first response should be no new. You really don't you care about me in the same way that a plumber cares about me paying him to fix my toilet. Why should we pretend that are politicians are the most carrying and wonderful of peace
When we all know this is precisely the opposite again, you have to propagate the notion that Joe Biden is full of empathy so that you don't catch runs. The faculties actually, for here is a hearse. Here's John King from Vienna. You have a president who is shaped Joe Biden, worthier, Ribera credit republican and independent they're. Watching he's been shaped by the personal tragedy in his own life. He understands what it is like for a family to suffer, for a family to lose and for a family to have to get up and recover, and that's why this is his ammo and his DNA Wolf to be an emphatic president and not try to hide
from these numbers. Are he inherited a mess in the trap of illustration that he is now accountable in what ways you been held accountable by your media seriously hit? Have you seen? One headline holding Joe Biden accountable for the hundred thousand Americans have died since he took office.
Every everyday there's a headline like its unthinkable, how many Americans? It is eighty three Vietnam wars that have happened under Donald Trump, a hundred thousand Americans have died since Joe Biden took office. Seventy moroz headlines, not one.
but you know sympathetic sets all the matters. Dana bastion same thing on CNN Trump was very non empathetic character, but we know the Joe Biden has.
turkey's all empathy all the time. What an event that the White House put on for the american people and
the world to memorialize the half, a million people who have been taken by this virus- and you know I don't want to do a lot of looking back but at almost the same location where his predecessor came back from the hospital having the virus himself and ripped off his mask. What a difference just a few months makes and having somebody who, as my colleagues have said, wants to a moat and to emphasise and to sympathize
and to grieve with this country, look I'm not looking for a psychologist, I'm looking for a priest and are looking for rabbi, I'm looking for a guy who is actually going to do what he promised and crush the virus is not doing any that stuff in fact he's in Thrall to a bunch of people whose policies are completely non empathetic because they are actually care about Americans. Let me give you an example. Roca is a democratic
I was present and he says you use s about minimum wage. Read the minimum wage is in the debate and covered really felt here is his response about minimum wage coming small businesses to the sound of authority when it comes to the policy, the scrapping sympathetic, here's Roca, how does this, in your view, effect mom and pop businesses, who are just struggling to keep their doors open, keep workers on the payroll right now, but they should be doing it by paying people low wages. We don't want a low wage businesses. I think most successful small businesses can pay a fair wage, so I love small businesses of all for it, but I once more businesses that are under way
employees, its beer for people to be making what their produce it, and I think fifteen dollars- is very reasonable in this handsome pathetic. He knows how your business runs better than you do and if you agree with him, he's perfectly happy for business Gander. That's all that matters to em right. Tens of attitude does not super empathy. Empathy he's empathetic sympathetic, also if your business goes under even care. Also vacant can't go back to school in care. You want to know what the actual underlying emotive ism here is about. It is all about garnering sympathy for political ends,
since that are completely non empathetic. We all know this. The binding ministrations mirroring all of the priorities of the American Federation of teachers when it comes to reopening schools here by the
is what the American Federation seizures present. Randy Weingarten had to say about whether kids,
recover from missing an entire year of school, not being with their classmate experiencing significant mental health disorders, really, I know many people have had kids were
suffering what the source of here is that the very and pathetic Renoir garden on this topic. I believe that kids are resilient. Oh and kids will recover, but we, as adults have to meet their needs, their emotional meets their social needs. There are learning needs and that's who America's educators are, but at the end of the day, we have to believe that this is recovered, and we have to believe that, firstly, all our kids will thrive with the opportunities that we put before them. Ok, so what you just said is, after kids, becoming translate that regulations had after gets, that's a damn. It gave so for all of the empathy and emotive is what really comes down to it comes down to policies which constituency can I please don't recognize. This is true for all your politicians, Democrat Republican. All of them
anybody who works for you want sympathy, get a dog you want. You want sympathy, get married, you want to eat. You want your politicians to bring you. These things are looking for love in all the wrong places, and you deserve to have whatever ridiculous policy to promote shut down your face, because it is that swear. If that's what you're? Looking for your love, my goodness, get a life, get a community get friends
