If you want strong families, you fight poverty. If you want to reduce crime, you fight poverty. If you want an educated, empowered population, you fight poverty. If you want to reduce racism and climate change, you fight poverty. If you want better housing and healthcare, you fight poverty. If you want a strong happy, healthy country, you fight poverty.
I think I'd like the way that all sounds more by saying "support" instead of fight. Because it definitely feels like it's something people do like to fight against and not in a supportive way.
At least Jerry Springer didn’t pretend like his show wasn’t trash. Dr Phil seems to think that he is way more important than he actually is. So insufferable.
I knew someone who was on his show. The way she was portrayed was pure fantasy. The lies and rewriting of history appalling. Realized then what absolute BS all those shows were.
Yep, my ex was on his show and he totally manipulated the show for entertainment value and what was presented on the show wasn’t at all what was going on. (She was hanging with drag queens and he made it out like she was being disloyal to her husband)
“I’m Not A Doctor But I Play One On TV” Phil said almost nothing. He’s one of those people who claims to not be taking a side but then regurgitates the shit they heard on Fox.
You have said even less. You don't talk about smart phones, erasing history, cancel culture, church attendance, or crime. All of which he spoke about because he answered David's questions.
Doctor phill is such a hypocrite,,, he has mentioned “I dont know much about politics but has spoken at a Trump rally,,, he’s trying to back peddle because people can read the bull right through him
Because he sees the corruption in the Givt and the establishment. Trump is the only one that had the balls to stand up to them. You will all benefit from him unearthing the BS. You’re just sheep and can’t think for yourselves. Your Govt is lying to you snd big Pharma is benefitting from the decline of your health. DO YOUR RESEARCH and stop believing the BS 19:43 they are spoon feeding you!! 🐑🐑🐑
Yeah, I just found this interview today and when he said at the very beginning that he is sooo not political, I thought "hmmm did he change his mind so much in just 8 months? 🤔" It's a pretty big change from being completely not political to speaking at a rally for a presidential candidate.
Religion is more like a muzzle. So less religion is a good sign, as long as the dog is not rabid/feral. But when that happens you get the "See? I told you all dogs need muzzles!!" No, you just need to raise your dogs correctly WITHOUT the need for muzzles.
What I find hilarious about religious conservatives is that religion proclaims an objective morality. As in, what is right or wrong is independent of time and place or who’s doing it. AND YET when asked about historical figures doing things that we, by modern standards, understand were horrible (like slavery) suddenly they’re the post-modern-neo-Marxist (or whatever lobster daddy says nowadays) that says all morality is relative and we can’t judge people by their actions if XYZ.
Is it really a good sign? We have record high depression never seen before, higher in Gen Z, we have broken family units more divorces, we have record high loneliness etc
@@ahall9839 Nope, we are seeing the consequence now we less religion we are seeing more depression, broken family unit like more divorces and record high loneliness etc
Dr. Phil's speeding analogy left me laughing on how people think they're saying something smart, when in fact they're just manufacturing BS on the fly.
@@GaryHighFruit You think slavery used to be morally acceptable? That's what the speeding analogy would imply. It's an awful analogy unless you think that slavery was morally acceptable. This is more like how sexual harassment wasn't always a crime. It was always wrong, but it used to be common and wasn't illegal.
@@christywillis1707- This is the point exactly…at the time morals were different. Slavery was “morally acceptable”…as was burning accused witches at the stake and forcing Indians off their land. Looking back we all agree (at least I would think that we do) that these things were reprehensible and evil, but then they were normal. Hence the analogy…judging the past with a modern lens.
We can teach history without honoring those who were wrong in the past with statues! In Germany they do not have statues and schools named after Hitler!
And the irony is many of those people who decry the removal of statues would be totally content if there was not a single mention of slavery in US history textbooks.
What makes it worse, is the majority of these statues are in predominately Black communities. Now we have to look at slave master lording over us on high. Disgusting!
Context is important. Thomas Jefferson, one of the most important individuals involved with the founding of the US and the writing of the constitution was a slave owner. Surely, we can all agree that it would make no sense to remove a statue of him.
What people so often fail to understand is that there is a difference between educating people about a historical figure versus celebrating them. I don't learn from statues. I don't learn from street names. I don't learn from the name of my school. I learned from books. I learned from teachers. I learned from studying. I learned from conversations. We don't need to keep/promote/celebrate disgusting people from our past to learn about them. Germany knows all about its past with exact zero statues of Hitler anywhere.
There's also a difference between Celebrating a historical individual and deifying them. If you lived at a time in which injustice was protected by law, you often had two choices 1. Try to live as justly as you could under an unjust system or 2. Toss your life on the scrap heap and give up what little power you had to live justly at all. It's the same today and we do the same thing. You can't compare, for example, Thomas Jefferson and Adolph Hitler but I've heard people on the extreme left do just that.
As far as psychologists and psychiatrists go, Dr. Phil pimped his patients for TV ratings and shows. The single most glaring example of this is when Britney Spears had her first mental breakdown and Phil roared up to the hospital that night and tried to sign her up to be on his show. Apart from that disgusting episode, most of his shows featured people in serious trouble who agreed to bare their problems on public television, hoping for whatever help in whatever clinic he made available. So no. Phil is not credible to be dissecting political or cultural issues. He's in a category similar to the one Dr. Oz was in and people eventually figured it out.
Agreed. But can we also cast our ire at Oprah. She is the woman that brought these toxic people to mainstream television. We don't hate Oprah enough honestly.
Exactly. A lot of the people on the pulpit are preaching (usually false) political views, and yet enjoying a tax-free status. I belong to a group that encourages freedom of individual spirit without the imposition of others values or the values of any "Gods". I "dance" to the spirit of my own "God", a very loving "God".
I am a second generation pastor in an evangelical fellowship. My dad’s generation, which is in their 80’s now, NEVER were involved in politics. A requirement of being in the ministry was to remain apolitical. The church’s function is to instruct in the faith and to function in the community in a productive way. Like serving others, feeding the hungry, etc. I firmly believe my position isn’t to preach politics but the Gospel. If churches want to have tax free status they have no business preaching politics. Period.
Taking down a statue is not ignoring the past. It's removing the glorification of that person. No one is suggesting that the reality of slave history NOT be taught. Phil is obscene. ...ok.. reached the 11 minute mark. That's enough.
I mean it depends on the person. If it's Confederate generals who led a rebellion against the USA sure. If it's someone like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, general Grant you're beginning to look like a crazy person to me if that's the case.
Right-wingers don't want the reality of slavery taught. His argument was a token offering to the left while the rest of his rhetoric was almost all right-wing.
It’s illegal to even own Nazi paraphernalia. I found some German WW2 era stamps with Hitler on them in my grandpa’s stuff when he died (US Army Vet) and looked to see how much they were worth - every website that was selling stamps had a big disclaimer: NOT ALLOWED FOR PURCHASE IN GERMANY (and Austria I think). F*cking hillbillies
There is plenty of stupid cancel culture on America. Including the outright condemnation of guys like Washington because he too was a slave owner. But keeping confederate statues is preposterous. I don't even think that piece of shit confederate flag should be allowed to be displayed, just like Germans don't allow Nazi symbols to be displayed on public
Dr Phil that was a terrible comparison between changing a speed limit and changing the name of buildings or schools named after significant Confederate figures. The erection of statues and naming of schools, buildings and military bases for the most part happened during the Jim Crow era - a time when white people in the South were deliberately and systematically writing and enforcing racist laws and policies to violate the civil rights of black people. The Jim Crow Era is just a stain on our country. We can learn about it in history class but we do not have to continue to glorify it by having schools, government buildings and military bases keep the names of notorious Confederate traitors and thieves.
It’s sad how all these mf are so political that they won’t be mentioned in history textbooks even though they influenced political ideas. They check all the boxes yet because they aren’t politicians they aren’t mentioned. Influenced a lot of people in a harmful way though they knew nothing. I mean just look at him! “Im not political and don’t pay attention but heres my opinion with no fact checks or proof” fucking sad.
Oh and people should just do what you say????? Heritage and monuments should be stuck in museums because you and the other schmucks like you want that? Fuuuuuuuck you
Dr. Phil doesn’t get it does he. Nobody wants to change history, they just don’t want to stop honoring terrible people. I didn’t realize Dr. Phil was so ignorant.
@@liltatorvert5583 Who cares that heinous atrocities were "just a cultural norm?" Doesn't mean we need to honor existing statues and erect more tone deaf (at best) statues... Read about it ffs
When we celebrate George Washington we aren’t celebrating his ownership of slaves, and that’s not what he’s famous for. That’s the difference between statues of people like him and Confederates. Even if you disagree with me you have to understand that advocating for the cancellation of symbols which are important to like 80% of Americans is a losing battle, and it makes progressives look like out of touch and unpatriotic misanthropes.
He's always been very ignorant. Parading around as a psychologist when all of the years he was on TV he had NO license to practice. He's a moron, and such a nasty, mean jerk.
McGraw has some good points and has helped people over time, but not all. When I realized he was a religious southerner then I saw a nutjob side of him. He always bangs on about family values. Many families have sick parents, alcoholism, narcissistic abuse where the kids live in hell. Some families cannot be healed because theses parents are beyond rehabilitation. I come from a home where the father was a violent, covert narcissist. In public he pretended to be nice and normal but behind closed doors was hell and horror. McGraw always ignores that reality.
@@TheEMC99 the bible says man shall not lay down with a man, either youre christian and hate gay people or you belive in a half assed cheery picked version. you cant have it both ways.
Most churches in America teach hate and prejudice and encourage violence against people who are born Intersex, or have Gender Dysphoria, or are different from us in any way, They teach supremacy. Then the parishioners teach it at home to their kids and the townspeople follow suit. It’s like a disease. They have no INTELLIGENT reason whatsoever 🤷🏻♀️ This “taught” hate, is exactly why America is filled with so much prejudice and violence. You don’t see this in Europe. Europeans are “grownups” & they are intelligent….. Church in America may be as bad as, X, or a DT rally…..
I wonder if Mr Phil is aware of who’s actually changing history books. Removing the statue of an oppressor doesn’t change history. Making it illegal to explain why Rosa sat in the bus does.
Agreed. Too many people speak in generalizations without any evidence (seems like a right-wing thing), so I love David’s technique of asking for the goods once a statement like that is made. 👌
Democrat voters scare me more than Putin's Russia, Xi's Red China, Ayatollah Khameini's Iran or Kim's DPRK. Pres Lincoln warned us that America could never be overcome from without but only from within.
Could you image going to a school named after a man who raped you but according to Dr Phil it is important to keep the name of the school to teach history.
I don't think anyone is saying Oprah's success was the result of DEI initiative. Her success has been based on immense talent, charisma, intelligence and hard work
"i'm not that political", "why do you have to make this political?", etc is the standard calling card for a right-winger who wants to spout off generic talking points but not have them criticised/rebutted.
100% right. He did say "mores," not "moral." But yeah -- there was a time it was absolutely normalized (mores) by and among white folks. But it was never ever moral.
I just researched and found he has a Ph.D in Philosophy receiving his degree in 1979 from the University of Northern Texas. He used to be a licenced psychologist a couple decades ago.
Yes! The other major countries had already outlawed it because it was wrong when we decided, what the hell. Why not? Because it's wrong! It wasn't "acceptable" even back then. Put the Confederate statues in museums but keep their names off public buildings. We have moved on from that.
It’s very refreshing to hear the elder speak what used to be common knowledge. Only now, Common knowledge isn’t so common anymore. It’s hard to see 20 and 30 year old children try to clown and argue with an elder who’s speaking literal facts and refuse to accept it! We live in a very dangerous time despite the huge positives that came from November. I’m just glad Donald Trump was re-elected! Y’all can Argue against me on that all you want but I have the freedom and right from the constitution to say anything and vote for who I want. You ants continue to vote for corrupt politicians who all they seem to care about is taking our guns away, changing the constitution, opening up our borders to cartels and illegal immigrants, teach children in schools about LGBT, use our taxpayer dollars to fund proxy wars, and leading us into WW3 with Russia, China, and the Middle East which is basically the entire half of the planet. You wanna vote for a tyrannical communist government, Then Go right ahead!
I went to a taping of his show a longtime ago. My ex friend had tickets. I can’t stand him. I kind of liked him in the very beginning but not now. Oprah introduced us all to him and Dr Oz. Not only do I like Dr Phil I can’t stand Dr Oz either and feel that way about Oprah. They are all about fame and are all very egotistical. And they are all fake too!!!
He only makes 88 million a year on his show. He needs a side hustle! Will you NEVER think of the multimillionaires? How will they buy that third golden toilet for their fifth yacht? HOW?
Good point. Why can't we move these statues to a museum where they can be appreciated in an exhibit that gives their full context and um... actual history?
Thank you so much for this comment. If we're talking relics from previous battles in other countries, most would want to see armaments from both sides. That doesn't mean you are taking a side, you're just trying to paint a picture of the past. These Jim Crow era statues were meant to send a message and constitute no historical merit whatsoever. Furthermore any historical edifices, relics, and armaments from that time which have survived should always have the shameful history associated with them documented and dually condemned on a placard front and center in front of them.
@@sedg83 Because writing out their atrocities and why they were made in the first place would shed a grim light on those who celebrate the hatred. The same logic is behind removing actual parts of American history because the next logical step would be accountability. Removing statues is easy, changing policy & removing malice from hearts is a whole other animal.
And those statues were meant to be a symbol of the continuing power held by white patriarchs and racists, whose sick values were being promoted as staunchly clinging to a past that betrayed supposed American ideals. Those statues were meant to be intimidating, telling people of color that the white supremacists will continue to hold power and subjugate those who were not of the privileged race. A bit of signage explaining that might be educational but it wouldn't undermine continuing systemic racism or individuals holding to the "lost cause" mentality.
Phil’s assertion that the birth rate decline is due to reduced religiosity is ludicrous. My own mother was quite religious and she had an abortion because she didn’t want to have another child with a philandering oppressor, my father. And there is a difference between fertility and fertility rate. Infertility and low fertility are biological, not related to relogiosity, which is sociological, not biological. The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has linked lifestyle factors such as obesity, strenuous physical labor, excessive exercise, substance use, heavy drinking, high blood pressure and others to increasing rates of infertility. And the choice of women to practice family planning derives from developments in fertility technology and women’s rights, not such a simple causation as religiosity. I have watched Phil a lot over the years and agree with quite a lot of his assessments, but he clearly didn’t study a lot of research protocols for his Doctorate.
People wanna act like irreligiosity breeds violence and barbarism forgetting the fucking hundreds of centuries we had before of countries killing for religion , imbeciles
8:40 this argument is nuts! The difference between retroactively penalizing someone for breaking current laws and renaming a school named after a historical racist, is that one of these things is victimless, while the other isn't. The consequence of the 200 year old dead guy having his name removed isn't about him; it's about restitution for those STILL impacted by his racism.
also, changing the name of a school isnt changing nor erasing history. those people still exist in the textbooks and records. no one learns history from school names lol
His argument was out of line from the start, but it is a debate tactic. Not a very honorable one, to say the least. Because he stated something where we are forced to agree with him. Now that we are on agreeable terms it is easier to take this agreeable thing and compare it to something unagreeable. Now we are more likely to agree to this aswell, due to the established consensus of agreeing with the one presenting the case. It's weird to explain and I forgot how this type of argument was called again. One thing is certain though: This is a tactic to persuade not to convice. It was never about being reasonable. It was about him trying to force us to shut up and not demand change. It would have been easy to debunk this, if David would have asked him if he would agree, that a hypothetical "A. Hitler School" should keep it's name. Because that is exactly what he is arguing for. If he is trying to play it dirty, we have to put im on the spot and challenge the fundamental idea he is arguing for.
He never was aside from with braindead daytime TV watchers. He’s got credibility from talking nonsense to stay at home moms… just like oprah, ellen and ricki lake.. credibility where none is earned.
@@sigridkramer4261 legally no religious organization is supposed to voice any opinion on politics under threat of losing tax exempt status… like literally no opinion
I find it hilarious and I believe that the person who originally wrote the BUY BULL BOOK is probably laughing all the way to the bank (or what ever it was at that time) on that grift!!!
Lots of reasons it could be, but foretold in the bible as the falling away. So we knew it was coming. My take on it would be that parents sent or took their kids to church before but the parents didn’t live the life the other six days of the week. Kids grew up and didn’t bother with it because of the hypocrisy so they ignored the entire thing when it came to their own kids. Some churches are dead just going through the motions repeating the same ritual each Sunday. There is no life there. Either way now children grow up knowing nothing about God. The excuse is that they want the child to make their own choice. They can’t because they know nothing about Christianity. The bible says “My people perish for lack of KNOWLEDGE.”
The decline in the birth rate, I believe, is correlated to the lack of jobs that provide a living wage, the huge medical expenses not covered by insurance, and available child care.
the decline in birth rate is the direct outcome of urbanisation and modernisation. this is expected. the same happened with europe, japan, south korea, singapore etc all these countries have the lowest fertility in the world .. regardless of socio economic issues or policies
having living wage, universal healthcare, financial security does absolutely nothing for fertility if people just do not want to have kids. btw you can be in absolute poverty, and have 5-6 children (africa)
@@joy1ess It's actually a lack of education that increases birth rates. The more educated will factor in financial costs and logistics of having a child, and won't likely have one. Poverty stricken Africa has lead to angry men not making enough to support a family so they go get drunk, rape their wives who go on to birth children, thereby compounding the problem of not being able to afford them. The more educated women are taking control of their lives, having a career or supporting their families in other ways. It's true even in America where the more educated the person, more likely they refuse to have children or will wait until they are financially stable to do it. Nevermind that housing is not as available and there are more apartment buildings than single family homes now.
Yes! I was disappointed that David did not point that out. It’s such an absurd talking point. As if we would all forget about slavery and the Civil War if we didn’t have statues glorifying traitors everywhere.
Most people don't even know when the Confederate statues were erected. Hint, it wasn't contemporary or even immediately following the destruction of the Confederacy. Second hint, it was as a giant white middle finger to black people who were getting "uppity" when they were seeking equal rights.
The comparison that Dr. Phil makes between changing school names/removing statues to changes in speed limit laws was pretty pathetic in my opinion. There are very significant and obvious legal/moral/ethical issues around the ownership of human beings that simply don't exist with speed limit laws. You can't tell me there weren't good white people that knew full well owning other humans was wrong or that many people in the future would not have less than positive views on the subject.
@@MonkeyDIvan Since when? Read the reply again. BTW evolution takes much longer than a few decades. What you're talking about is changes of opinion, essentially the same as fashion. One thing we can be sure of is that whatever people think is "right" now will not be what people will think is "right" in 50 years from now.
McGraw mentioned cancel culture. However, he doesn't mention anything about censorship and book banning in many states public school systems. He doesn't talk about how many religious leaders want to criminalize every woman who gets an abortion or every LBGTQ!
@jacksmith-vp3go First the onus is on you to prove a God exists, any God. And then you have to prove that this God is the Christian God. Then you have to prove that Jesus was a real person who existed, and then prove that he was the son of a God. And so on and so on... Until then you can take a seat.
he is NOT a medical doctor and he lost his license to practice clinical psychology approximately 15 years ago due to serious professional misconduct and ethics violations.
Ummmm you are aware you can get a doctorate in almost anything and anyone going to the massive time effort expense and mental energy to become a doctor of anything DESERVES TO BE CALLED A DOCTOR PERIOD! What TF…..you clearly are massively uneducated and ignorant to not know this……
I’ve always felt that guy was a fraud, and I am forever convinced he remains one. He’s a bullshit artist and he’s a poser. And he’s lying when he says he’s not a conservative because everything he talks about are right wing talking points.
I gave up on Dr. Phil when Covid started and he made a statement about the masks. I can’t remember the exact wording but he definitely made me realize where he stood and that is on the RIGHT. I faithfully watched him for years. I honestly was sad to “break up” with him in a way but also grateful that he showed his true colors.
I completely understand wht you're saying. I remember him mentioning that the masks made little to no difference on transmission. Now sure, there's some research concluding that he may've been right (Cochrane Institue). But as a lifelong Democrat, it's his obligation to adhere to the official health advise.
@@byronb3506lol….the mask issue should never have been political. The only masks that do anything are N95s, but since we didn’t have enough for everyone due to production be outsourced to China, Fauci lied to everyone and told us that any face covering will do.

Lol, no, it's at the time there was no evidence on the subject specifically in regards to Covid-19, but there was evidence that masks made a difference in transmission for other viruses, so common sense would tell you that they definitely would not hurt.@@byronb3506
I stopped watching when he told a woman that it was wrong for her to voice her opinions concerning the war in Iraq as "we need to support the troops and they don't need to hear this". Yeah, I figured out he's an idiot that long ago.
"How will today's Germans ever learn about the horrors of the Holocaust if they don't go to schools named after Hitler and see statues of him everywhere?"
When someone says something as stupid as mealy mouthed Phil, you just know there is no point in trying to have an honest debate about the issue with him.
I think he is a real quack! I just looked up his annual salary on the Dr. Phil show, a whopping 95 MILLION a year. That is absolutely ridiculous. This man is about fame, fortune and sensationalism!
I never realized how unintelligent he actually is until this interview lol and he gives people advice on t.v. as a master of intelligence when he is easily below average intelligence
All the common modern US-right-wing positions and talking points anyway, including well-established strawmen and other intentional fallacies. Jepp - very much a right-winger. Maybe one of those "third way" types in his own mind, who claim to bei in between but then ALWAYS turn to pro-capital authoritarianism like conservatives. Macron or Fujimori would be examples.
Yes, some professors have been stripped of tenure due to their free speech, including: Muhlenberg College's Finkelstein Finkelstein was fired for a pro-Palestine post on Instagram. She appealed the decision and is receiving salary and benefits while she awaits a hearing. University of South Florida's Al-Arian Al-Arian was fired after making remarks about Israel on Fox News. The school claimed the firing was due to campus safety concerns, but academic freedom advocates condemned it as censorship and discrimination. Concordia University's professor This professor was suspended for criticizing the school's "woke" policies. University of Washington's professor This professor lost an endowed chair for signing a letter criticizing Israel. Emporia State University's McCoy McCoy was fired after writing a column that began, "I may be fired for writing this". CMU's Boudreau Boudreau was fired after a student posted a video of him using the n-word in class. University of Pennsylvania's Wax Wax was publicly reprimanded and had her pay docked for her inflammatory statements and writings about Black Americans, Asians, and others. However, she did not lose her job or tenure.
Holy crap I noticed that right away too. Is dr Phil that stupid, or does he just assume David and his audience is as stupid as the conservative audiences he’s used to?
@@ryans6186 he really is that stupid. but he's like trump in that stupid people identify with him. here comes this dude, and he's a DOCTOR (oh wowee! a doctor! him big smart!), and he talks with a drawl like a good ol' southern boy, and he espouses reactionary ideologies, and he thinks these young folks just don't get it and we need to go back to the good ol' days. the idiots feel empowered because they see themselves in this dude. he is also a reminder that you do not need to be smart to be successful. sometimes you just need to be in the right place at the right time and convince the right people to give you money. there are plenty of small business owners that are downright morons but they clear mid-six figures because everything has gone the way they needed them to go. these same people will look at all the luck they've had and think they earned every bit of it with blood sweat and tears and look down on those who don't have it as worse humans than them.

All too often you call out a republican on their bullshit and they make the claim that they aren't political or republican. It's so easy to see through their lies.
Yep. That is a thing that most of them do. They deny that they watch Fox news, they deny they are Repug...they say they are "independent". And, WHEN their Repug president screws the country and the economy up (as they do EVERY time), they always deny that they voted for them. That's why we need to remember who all these MAGAots are, because if their dictator gets elected, and does what we all know he is going to do, they will go running from him and try to act like they never supported him. We need to never let them forget what they did to this country. Verbally remind them daily that they were brainwashed and stupid.
Good job, Dr. Phil, for avoiding all the traps David was setting in the interview. My favorite answer: "I'll send you the list". And as expected, David posted it with the comments of "not a termination", picking and pocking, just in order to prove his own confirmation bias.
I wish the public would STOP calling him “Doctor Phil” - he is NOT a medical doctor and he lost his license to practice clinical psychology approximately 15 years ago due to serious professional misconduct and ethics violations. Please call him by his correct name - Phil McGraw. He should NOT be called “a doctor” because he lost his license to practice clinical psychology because he violated professional ethics by having one of his patients drawn into a financial business relationship with him. He hired a patient of his to work for him, which is clearly illegal. He would have had his license taken away from the state license board and in order to avoid bad publicity - Phil McGraw and his lawyers/public relations handlers decided to make public statements “He decided not to continue praticing as a clinical psychologist in order to focus on publishing books, public speaking and his television show”. Dr. Phil had a sexual relationship with a patient and she went to the state licensing board and filed a formal grievance. This was long before Dr. Phil became famous. Before he was famous he owned a sleazy fitness gym and there were numerous and VALID allegations of him sexually harrassing his female employees. His fitness gym also had serious financial problems with this business - it eventually went “bust” and closed. What I dislike about Phil McGraw is his bombastic, egotistical personality. He is a “Know It All” and frequently insults and talks down to the guests on his show. The premise of the show is embarrassing and talking down to the guests. THIS is why people tune in to watch his program. I don’t like “Judge Judy” either - because she is rude, insulting to guests on her program BUT at least she is a REAL judge with a valid license……..unlike Phil McGraw who is banned from practicing as a clinical psychologist because he lost his license to practice. Let’s face it - the primary premise of the Dr Phil show is it serves as an INFOMERCIAL for Phil McGraw to hawk his products, sell his merchandise, plug his sons tv shows and sell his wifes crappy skin care products. EVERY SINGLE EPISODE has “product placement” informercial segment with Phil McGraw selling his products
Look into the history of most of those memorials. Erected well after the war ended by the Daughters of the Confederacy in a deliberate effort to terrorize Blacks.
Let's not forget that these statues are not destroyed they are just moved to an indoor museum. They just want to throw a tantrum because they can't warship it as easily
No it doesn't... However, a school named after a confederate or a statue of such a person sends the wrong message of what we're about. Churches don't have statues of Satan, neither are they named after Lucifer, etc. because they obviously do not glorify the Devil. People who object to having a building renamed so as not to honor a confederate or removing a statue of said person don't read history, Adam.
Him and Dr. Oz. Between Oprah Winfrey and Mark Burnett, their production companies have an endless amoutn of social and political chaos to make amends for.
@ owlxoggest6247 One of the worst things Oprah did was to give "Dr" Oz a platform. The US fielded whether or not to elect him. Since failing to gain an election Oz has gone back to pushing his quack medicines.
Dr Phil presents the fact that universities are engaging in cancel culture and Pakman immediately and disingenuously turns it into a conversation about professors losing tenure. As a teacher myself, I have felt more and more pressure to change / monitor my language over the last decade than anytime in the past. Have I been fired? No. I need my job to feed my family. Does this mean that I’m not afraid of saying the “wrong” thing in my class? Also no.
I know athiests that are kinder to people then some Christian people simply because they were raised with good manners & taught to treat all people with dignity & respect .
As a black person why should I go to school named after a slave owner. I’m not changing history I’m making it. The name change is history not presentism.
He just compared slavery to speeding in your vehicle. Owning people in the same way that you own animals. Beating them, r*ping them, killing them, selling them, forcefully separating children from their mother so you can sell them. That can somehow be compared to speeding in traffic. Wow, that really tells you all you need to know about "Doctor" Phil.
Sorry thats liberals - the most dpressed man on earth is a liberal male, this has been studied. Also all you pink haired cow girlfriends have mental illness at 60%! So keep it up! None of you seem to be smart enough to understand its your "liberal" thoughts that make you consistently lose in life!

What he’s saying is that we can’t blame the Nazis for killing millions of Jews because that was the social norm in Germany society at that time. Is that what he means?
Yep that’s what he is saying cause by his logic hey they were not allll bad right? I mean they built stuff, I mean the Nazis had free school, free health care so it was awesome according to Dr.Phil cause you can’t cherry pick

@@Max4Zwe have to learn history, but let’s carve out the black part, the slavery part. It’s ok to learn all other history, let’s learn “white” history only. What do you mean, what are they talking about?
They aren’t ashamed they are afraid of The fact that the left is violent and intolerant and tries to ruin the lives of those they disagree with by suppressing their opinions and trying to silence them.
That the right worship criminal defendant Donald Trump, semi-literate fraudster, rapist, psychopath, coup instigator, and would-be dictator. That’s he’s their leader is all a bit embarrassing really! 🤭
Even a trained psychologist uses defensive mechanisms when unable to cope with a confrontational interaction. Minimizing, denial, intellectualization, and avoidance. Yes he is a GOPer.
Dr. Phil asked a couple of times, “Where are the parents?” with regard to the increase in certain crimes…Where are the parents?! Many are at second or third jobs (or trying to rest in between) because rent and everyday living expenses - concerns that Dr. Phil, most likely, does NOT struggle with - have increased disproportionately to any amount of significant, yet deceptive, wage increases.
What about a a lot of the familial crimes, both parents are there then. And there are a lot of them. That has nothing to do with the parents not being in the home. Jeffrey Dahmer had his parents. that’s why I don’t really agree with that psychology about the lack of a parent being the issue. I could find a outlier for every single thing that was said say for instance a parent dies. It’s ridiculous to think these things are the issues with crime. Crime is a choice no matter what situation you are in. There are people that come from suburban homes and go to retail outlets and commit thefts. This is why the conservative mind is complex and filled with conspiracy theories that they think of as fact. This odd way of thinking will have us all in a situation like the women and people of Afghanistan.
For Dr. Phil to be such a man of intellect and insight he really needs to replay this interview and listen to himself explain away the reasoning for renaming schools or institutions named after such blatant white nationalists as Robert E. Lee. I'm a 64 y/o white man and even I can see how imposing it would be for students of color to be sitting in the classroom of a school named in honor of a white nationalist. Mr. McGraw's unenlightened view that we should leave the names of white nationalists on monuments and buildings to remind us of our history reveals just how detached from reality he is that systematic racism is still alive and well in our country. He speaks as if prejudice and racism are things of the past and they certainly are not. For him to say he knows nothing about politics is pretty rich considering @2:30 in the interview he readily admits there are politicians on both sides of the aisle that talk about topics like immigration, culture etc. that he covers in his new book. IMO he's so abreast of current politics and how lucrative right wing positions and talking points can be that he's cashing in just as droves of other well recognized names have. Props to Dave for holding McGraw's feet to the fire. We'll never know how many times throughout the interview but I'm sure Dr. Phil asked himself, "Why the hell did I agree to this interview? I just wanna sell my damn book."
True, his argument about removing names of infamous Confederates, racists and traitors is insulting. But I sure don't see much evidence here of David "holding his feet to the fire". It's another example of trying to appear collegial while barely pushing back on anything McGraw says. It's weak on rejoinders and counter-argument. The bit about tenured professors being fired or not is a minor point at best and goes on for too long without benefit.
@@janetblanc7658 Too many let lies and outrageous comments just go right through the interviewer. That's not good journalism. But I have seen a few good interviewers who really do press the issue when the guest says something so dishonest or offensive that it can't be permitted.

@@surfwriter8461 I get where you're coming from but in my opinion it was masterful how articulately Dave suggested his views could be considered right wing talking points and then allowing DR. Phil to respond without confrontation. The longer McGraw was allowed to speak without interruption the more revealing his right wing beliefs became.

No, Dr. Phil, I cannot believe it. He's so not political that he spoke at a political rally. Maybe he can gaslight his talk show audience, but that garbage doesn't work here.
@@denihawkins1 Filing for bankruptcy is what a business man who is good at milking the system uses to get richer and richer. That's what bankruptcy is really for - to shield rich people from huge losses when things go badly. So in that regards he is a "good business man".

If you want strong families, you fight poverty. If you want to reduce crime, you fight poverty. If you want an educated, empowered population, you fight poverty.

I think I'd like the way that all sounds more by saying "support" instead of fight.
Because it definitely feels like it's something people do like to fight against and not in a supportive way.

At least Jerry Springer didn’t pretend like his show wasn’t trash. Dr Phil seems to think that he is way more important than he actually is. So insufferable.
I knew someone who was on his show. The way she was portrayed was pure fantasy. The lies and rewriting of history appalling. Realized then what absolute BS all those shows were.
He's not even a licensed doctor! 🤮

Excellent question!

Doctor phill is such a hypocrite,,, he has mentioned “I dont know much about politics but has spoken at a Trump rally,,, he’s trying to back peddle because people can read the bull right through him
Because he sees the corruption in the Givt and the establishment. Trump is the only one that had the balls to stand up to them. You will all benefit from him unearthing the BS.

Yeah, I just found this interview today and when he said at the very beginning that he is sooo not political, I thought "hmmm did he change his mind so much in just 8 months? 🤔" It's a pretty big change from being completely not political to speaking at a rally for a presidential candidate.
I think less religion is a good sign. Religion is NOT a magical source of morality. I would argue it's the opposite.
Religion is more like a muzzle. So less religion is a good sign, as long as the dog is not rabid/feral.
But when that happens you get the "See? I told you all dogs need muzzles!!" No, you just need to raise your dogs correctly WITHOUT the need for muzzles.
What I find hilarious about religious conservatives is that religion proclaims an objective morality. As in, what is right or wrong is independent of time and place or who’s doing it. AND YET when asked about historical figures doing things that we, by modern standards, understand were horrible (like slavery) suddenly they’re the post-modern-neo-Marxist (or whatever lobster daddy says nowadays) that says all morality is relative and we can’t judge people by their actions if XYZ.

@@christywillis1707- This is the point exactly…at the time morals were different. Slavery was “morally acceptable”…as was burning accused witches at the stake and forcing Indians off their land. Looking back we all agree (at least I would think that we do) that these things were reprehensible and evil, but then they were normal. Hence the analogy…judging the past with a modern lens.
We can teach history without honoring those who were wrong in the past with statues!
In Germany they do not have statues and schools named after Hitler!
And the irony is many of those people who decry the removal of statues would be totally content if there was not a single mention of slavery in US history textbooks.
Accurate. Other countries think it’s insane that we allow the Confederate flag to be everywhere.
And by naming military bases named after the generals who were giving the orders and making the strategies to fight against a _United_ States.
What makes it worse, is the majority of these statues are in predominately Black communities. Now we have to look at slave master lording over us on high. Disgusting!
Context is important. Thomas Jefferson, one of the most important individuals involved with the founding of the US and the writing of the constitution was a slave owner. Surely, we can all agree that it would make no sense to remove a statue of him.
Slavery vs speeding. 2 very different things Dr Phill!!!
What people so often fail to understand is that there is a difference between educating people about a historical figure versus celebrating them. I don't learn from statues. I don't learn from street names. I don't learn from the name of my school. I learned from books. I learned from teachers. I learned from studying. I learned from conversations. We don't need to keep/promote/celebrate disgusting people from our past to learn about them. Germany knows all about its past with exact zero statues of Hitler anywhere.
This! 💯
He understands it but it's what the magabase wants him to say.
Sweetheart, I have to keep these pictures of my ex-girlfriends all over the house so I don't forget them and make those mistakes again.
Agree those people are not to be celebrated.
There's also a difference between Celebrating a historical individual and deifying them. If you lived at a time in which injustice was protected by law, you often had two choices 1. Try to live as justly as you could under an unjust system or 2. Toss your life on the scrap heap and give up what little power you had to live justly at all. It's the same today and we do the same thing. You can't compare, for example, Thomas Jefferson and Adolph Hitler but I've heard people on the extreme left do just that.
As far as psychologists and psychiatrists go, Dr. Phil pimped his patients for TV ratings and shows. The single most glaring example of this is when Britney Spears had her first mental breakdown and Phil roared up to the hospital that night and tried to sign her up to be on his show. Apart from that disgusting episode, most of his shows featured people in serious trouble who agreed to bare their problems on public television, hoping for whatever help in whatever clinic he made available. So no. Phil is not credible to be dissecting political or cultural issues. He's in a category similar to the one Dr. Oz was in and people eventually figured it out.
Agreed. But can we also cast our ire at Oprah. She is the woman that brought these toxic people to mainstream television. We don't hate Oprah enough honestly.
Drs phil and oz are not good people. Oprah is responsible for them both.
One of the biggest reasons many folks quit attending church was because politics was being pushed rather than the Bible.
As though the bible isn’t enough reason all by itself.
No it was mostly young people are godless and don't want to follow any rules.
Well religious people tend to be more conservative , in all countries. Nothing wrong with that, just differences of opinion
Exactly. A lot of the people on the pulpit are preaching (usually false) political views, and yet enjoying a tax-free status.
I belong to a group that encourages freedom of individual spirit without the imposition of others values or the values of any "Gods". I "dance" to the spirit of my own "God", a very loving "God".
It's also because people are more able to educate themselves and learn the Bible is not all the religious leaders try to get you to think it is.
I am a second generation pastor in an evangelical fellowship. My dad’s generation, which is in their 80’s now, NEVER were involved in politics. A requirement of being in the ministry was to remain apolitical. The church’s function is to instruct in the faith and to function in the community in a productive way. Like serving others, feeding the hungry, etc. I firmly believe my position isn’t to preach politics but the Gospel. If churches want to have tax free status they have no business preaching politics. Period.
You have to preach against the corrupt dei initiatives.
It’s nothing but politics now
Taking down a statue is not ignoring the past. It's removing the glorification of that person. No one is suggesting that the reality of slave history NOT be taught. Phil is obscene. ...ok.. reached the 11 minute mark. That's enough.
He's a halfwit. Lol
I made it to 11:20. Enough
I mean it depends on the person. If it's Confederate generals who led a rebellion against the USA sure. If it's someone like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, general Grant you're beginning to look like a crazy person to me if that's the case.
Same here.
Right-wingers don't want the reality of slavery taught. His argument was a token offering to the left while the rest of his rhetoric was almost all right-wing.
Germany has no statues or monuments of Hitler or any Nazi leaders erected. They also have not forgotten and are continuing to learn from the past.
It’s illegal to even own Nazi paraphernalia. I found some German WW2 era stamps with Hitler on them in my grandpa’s stuff when he died (US Army Vet) and looked to see how much they were worth - every website that was selling stamps had a big disclaimer: NOT ALLOWED FOR PURCHASE IN GERMANY (and Austria I think).
F*cking hillbillies
There is plenty of stupid cancel culture on America. Including the outright condemnation of guys like Washington because he too was a slave owner. But keeping confederate statues is preposterous. I don't even think that piece of shit confederate flag should be allowed to be displayed, just like Germans don't allow Nazi symbols to be displayed on public
It’s almost as if the moral clarity of not glamorizing evil figures actually makes it easier to accurately learn from the mistakes of the past 🤷♂️
Really? How do you explain the rise of the AfD? @@Jositoooo
Germany is a masterclass with this issue.
Dr Phil that was a terrible comparison between changing a speed limit and changing the name of buildings or schools named after significant Confederate figures. The erection of statues and naming of schools, buildings and military bases for the most part happened during the Jim Crow era - a time when white people in the South were deliberately and systematically writing and enforcing racist laws and policies to violate the civil rights of black people. The Jim Crow Era is just a stain on our country. We can learn about it in history class but we do not have to continue to glorify it by having schools, government buildings and military bases keep the names of notorious Confederate traitors and thieves.
You are correct. I think treating people like they did back then was more of a show character than following laws
💯
It’s sad how all these mf are so political that they won’t be mentioned in history textbooks even though they influenced political ideas. They check all the boxes yet because they aren’t politicians they aren’t mentioned. Influenced a lot of people in a harmful way though they knew nothing. I mean just look at him! “Im not political and don’t pay attention but heres my opinion with no fact checks or proof” fucking sad.
That’s a white supremacy answer
Amen!
How ironic that Phil would be an absolute, nothing, nobody without a strong black woman. Let that sink in.
The statues should be in museums with explanatory plaques so people can learn about history. Seeing a statue in a public place teaches nothing.
Oh and people should just do what you say????? Heritage and monuments should be stuck in museums because you and the other schmucks like you want that? Fuuuuuuuck you
Dr. Phil doesn’t get it does he. Nobody wants to change history, they just don’t want to stop honoring terrible people. I didn’t realize Dr. Phil was so ignorant.

When we celebrate George Washington we aren’t celebrating his ownership of slaves, and that’s not what he’s famous for. That’s the difference between statues of people like him and Confederates.
Even if you disagree with me you have to understand that advocating for the cancellation of symbols which are important to like 80% of Americans is a losing battle, and it makes progressives look like out of touch and unpatriotic misanthropes.

McGraw has some good points and has helped people over time, but not all. When I realized he was a religious southerner then I saw a nutjob side of him. He always bangs on about family values. Many families have sick parents, alcoholism, narcissistic abuse where the kids live in hell. Some families cannot be healed because theses parents are beyond rehabilitation. I come from a home where the father was a violent, covert narcissist. In public he pretended to be nice and normal but behind closed doors was hell and horror. McGraw always ignores that reality.
Or they are busy being hypnotizing by Phil McGraw slowly delivered his platitudes on T.V.

Thank you so much for this comment. If we're talking relics from previous battles in other countries, most would want to see armaments from both sides. That doesn't mean you are taking a side, you're just trying to paint a picture of the past.
These Jim Crow era statues were meant to send a message and constitute no historical merit whatsoever. Furthermore any historical edifices, relics, and armaments from that time which have survived should always have the shameful history associated with them documented and dually condemned on a placard front and center in front of them.
@@sedg83 Because writing out their atrocities and why they were made in the first place would shed a grim light on those who celebrate the hatred. The same logic is behind removing actual parts of American history because the next logical step would be accountability. Removing statues is easy, changing policy & removing malice from hearts is a whole other animal.
And those statues were meant to be a symbol of the continuing power held by white patriarchs and racists, whose sick values were being promoted as staunchly clinging to a past that betrayed supposed American ideals. Those statues were meant to be intimidating, telling people of color that the white supremacists will continue to hold power and subjugate those who were not of the privileged race. A bit of signage explaining that might be educational but it wouldn't undermine continuing systemic racism or individuals holding to the "lost cause" mentality.
I have to admit, although I have not watched him for years, Im shocked about him being at the rally. 😮
You must be so easily offended by reality
Church attendance has lowered because we are sick of the fundamental authoritarian dogma
Phil’s assertion that the birth rate decline is due to reduced religiosity is ludicrous. My own mother was quite religious and she had an abortion because she didn’t want to have another child with a philandering oppressor, my father. And there is a difference between fertility and fertility rate. Infertility and low fertility are biological, not related to relogiosity, which is sociological, not biological.
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has linked lifestyle factors such as obesity, strenuous physical labor, excessive exercise, substance use, heavy drinking, high blood pressure and others to increasing rates of infertility.
And the choice of women to practice family planning derives from developments in fertility technology and women’s rights, not such a simple causation as religiosity.
I have watched Phil a lot over the years and agree with quite a lot of his assessments, but he clearly didn’t study a lot of research protocols for his Doctorate.

He's saying if we change a school name we'll ... forget that a terrible slave-holder existed?? Yes. He's actually saying that. And yes, it is bonkers.
Well he'd also saying those slave holders did good things too. So let's not just dwell on the inhuman evil!
also, changing the name of a school isnt changing nor erasing history. those people still exist in the textbooks and records. no one learns history from school names lol
His argument was out of line from the start, but it is a debate tactic. Not a very honorable one, to say the least. Because he stated something where we are forced to agree with him. Now that we are on agreeable terms it is easier to take this agreeable thing and compare it to something unagreeable. Now we are more likely to agree to this aswell, due to the established consensus of agreeing with the one presenting the case. It's weird to explain and I forgot how this type of argument was called again. One thing is certain though: This is a tactic to persuade not to convice.
It was never about being reasonable. It was about him trying to force us to shut up and not demand change. It would have been easy to debunk this, if David would have asked him if he would agree, that a hypothetical "A. Hitler School" should keep it's name. Because that is exactly what he is arguing for. If he is trying to play it dirty, we have to put im on the spot and challenge the fundamental idea he is arguing for.
Wow, why is this man considered an authority on anything?
Because of Oprah.
He never was aside from with braindead daytime TV watchers. He’s got credibility from talking nonsense to stay at home moms… just like oprah, ellen and ricki lake.. credibility where none is earned.
When David is talking to him, his look is one of him lowering his head like he's about to get drowsy! Or agitated!
The guy on purpose is not even LICENSED! Because if he was, he would be culpable to being sued....Total charlatan and grifter!
Authority of sleeze TV maybe.. The Shelly Duvall incident is what comes to mind when I think of dr phil
I'm so disappointed in Phil. I didn't know he was a white supremacist. Sad😔
I am curious what Dr Phil said that lead you to believe he's a white supremacist?
Is it possible perhaps people are realizing that religion is the biggest grift and that's why membership is low
agree💯% and churches should pay tax.
Religion is not only a gift but its main historical purpose was/is to control populations of people, mainly the working classes of society
@@sigridkramer4261 legally no religious organization is supposed to voice any opinion on politics under threat of losing tax exempt status… like literally no opinion
I find it hilarious and I believe that the person who originally wrote the BUY BULL BOOK is probably laughing all the way to the bank (or what ever it was at that time) on that grift!!!
Lots of reasons it could be, but foretold in the bible as the falling away. So we knew it was coming. My take on it would be that parents sent or took their kids to church before but the parents didn’t live the life the other six days of the week. Kids grew up and didn’t bother with it because of the hypocrisy so they ignored the entire thing when it came to their own kids. Some churches are dead just going through the motions repeating the same ritual each Sunday. There is no life there. Either way now children grow up knowing nothing about God. The excuse is that they want the child to make their own choice. They can’t because they know nothing about Christianity. The bible says “My people perish for lack of KNOWLEDGE.”
The decline in the birth rate, I believe, is correlated to the lack of jobs that provide a living wage, the huge medical expenses not covered by insurance, and available child care.
No people have realized kids are annoying so one is lots and if u put them in sports etc it’s expensive
the decline in birth rate is the direct outcome of urbanisation and modernisation. this is expected. the same happened with europe, japan, south korea, singapore etc all these countries have the lowest fertility in the world .. regardless of socio economic issues or policies
having living wage, universal healthcare, financial security does absolutely nothing for fertility if people just do not want to have kids. btw you can be in absolute poverty, and have 5-6 children (africa)
@@joy1ess It's actually a lack of education that increases birth rates. The more educated will factor in financial costs and logistics of having a child, and won't likely have one. Poverty stricken Africa has lead to angry men not making enough to support a family so they go get drunk, rape their wives who go on to birth children, thereby compounding the problem of not being able to afford them. The more educated women are taking control of their lives, having a career or supporting their families in other ways. It's true even in America where the more educated the person, more likely they refuse to have children or will wait until they are financially stable to do it. Nevermind that housing is not as available and there are more apartment buildings than single family homes now.
That’s my main reason for not having kids. Can’t afford ‘em.
Why would I want to go to a school named after a klansman!
Well said 👏🏾
Bcuz Dr. Phil thinks you should.
💯 He won't just come out and say the quiet part out loud. But he does on FOX!
...or an insurrectionist/traitor? How many schools are there named after Benedict Arnold?
Why would you want a president that read the eulogy for a klansman?
5 seconds in and David is already making accusations and trying to put Dr Phil into a box.
Classy move
Changing school names and removing statues isn’t pretending they didn’t exist. It’s not honoring shitty people.
yep, nobody in Germany has opened Adolph Hitler Junior College and no one in Germany has forgotten that history.
Yes! I was disappointed that David did not point that out. It’s such an absurd talking point. As if we would all forget about slavery and the Civil War if we didn’t have statues glorifying traitors everywhere.
@@dikdik1313Maybe he didn't because Phil would be upset and say that colorate nazi to slavery or something
Most people don't even know when the Confederate statues were erected. Hint, it wasn't contemporary or even immediately following the destruction of the Confederacy. Second hint, it was as a giant white middle finger to black people who were getting "uppity" when they were seeking equal rights.
The comparison that Dr. Phil makes between changing school names/removing statues to changes in speed limit laws was pretty pathetic in my opinion. There are very significant and obvious legal/moral/ethical issues around the ownership of human beings that simply don't exist with speed limit laws. You can't tell me there weren't good white people that knew full well owning other humans was wrong or that many people in the future would not have less than positive views on the subject.
Always knew Dr. Phil to be a morally bankrupt ghoul. I guess this just further reaffirmed it.
i was hoping travolta an dr scum , with cruise would turn up ,
Definitely a morally bankrupt ghoul, but his opinions as presented sounded similar to most people in their late 60s or early 70s

McGraw mentioned cancel culture. However, he doesn't mention anything about censorship and book banning in many states public school systems. He doesn't talk about how many religious leaders want to criminalize every woman who gets an abortion or every LBGTQ!

I’ve always felt that guy was a fraud, and I am forever convinced he remains one. He’s a bullshit artist and he’s a poser. And he’s lying when he says he’s not a conservative because everything he talks about are right wing talking points.
Yep. He got a lot of Fox talking points in there.
Presumably he doesn't know that's political? 😂
I gave up on Dr. Phil when Covid started and he made a statement about the masks. I can’t remember the exact wording but he definitely made me realize where he stood and that is on the RIGHT. I faithfully watched him for years. I honestly was sad to “break up” with him in a way but also grateful that he showed his true colors.
I completely understand wht you're saying. I remember him mentioning that the masks made little to no difference on transmission. Now sure, there's some research concluding that he may've been right (Cochrane Institue). But as a lifelong Democrat, it's his obligation to adhere to the official health advise.
Get over it. Why do you make everyone out who disagrees with you to be a bad person?
@@byronb3506lol….the mask issue should never have been political. The only masks that do anything are N95s, but since we didn’t have enough for everyone due to production be outsourced to China, Fauci lied to everyone and told us that any face covering will do.
Well, masks don't work... it's been well proven. It's like a mosquitoe flying through a chainlink fence. Do people still believe mask work? Seriously?!
Lol, no, it's at the time there was no evidence on the subject specifically in regards to Covid-19, but there was evidence that masks made a difference in transmission for other viruses, so common sense would tell you that they definitely would not hurt.@@byronb3506

Well done for stopping watching this snake oil salesman. He has nothing good to offer.
What makes Trump a bad guy? What policies were bad? What are the actual reasons you hate him?
As someone who works in the mental health field, I couldn’t stand him and his show due to how many professional ethics and standards he violated
I stopped watching when he told a woman that it was wrong for her to voice her opinions concerning the war in Iraq as "we need to support the troops and they don't need to hear this".
Yeah, I figured out he's an idiot that long ago.
"How will today's Germans ever learn about the horrors of the Holocaust if they don't go to schools named after Hitler and see statues of him everywhere?"
When someone says something as stupid as mealy mouthed Phil, you just know there is no point in trying to have an honest debate about the issue with him.
Absolutely anyone who has been to Germany can see how that has benefited that country and stopped ppl revisiting fascism
That was exactly what I was thinking when he was speaking about the confederate statues. 😮

Yep. That is a thing that most of them do. They deny that they watch Fox news, they deny they are Repug...they say they are "independent". And, WHEN their Repug president screws the country and the economy up (as they do EVERY time), they always deny that they voted for them. That's why we need to remember who all these MAGAots are, because if their dictator gets elected, and does what we all know he is going to do, they will go running from him and try to act like they never supported him. We need to never let them forget what they did to this country. Verbally remind them daily that they were brainwashed and stupid.
He’s a charlatan. Great holding him to his words. He confused his own damn self.

Good job, Dr. Phil, for avoiding all the traps David was setting in the interview. My favorite answer: "I'll send you the list". And as expected, David posted it with the comments of "not a termination", picking and pocking, just in order to prove his own confirmation bias.
I wish the public would STOP calling him “Doctor Phil” - he is NOT a medical doctor and he lost his license to practice clinical psychology approximately 15 years ago due to serious professional misconduct and ethics violations.
Please call him by his correct name - Phil McGraw.
He should NOT be called “a doctor” because he lost his license to practice clinical psychology because he violated professional ethics by having one of his patients drawn into a financial business relationship with him. He hired a patient of his to work for him, which is clearly illegal. He would have had his license taken away from the state license board and in order to avoid bad publicity - Phil McGraw and his lawyers/public relations handlers decided to make public statements “He decided not to continue praticing as a clinical psychologist in order to focus on publishing books, public speaking and his television show”.
Dr. Phil had a sexual relationship with a patient and she went to the state licensing board and filed a formal grievance. This was long before Dr. Phil became famous. Before he was famous he owned a sleazy fitness gym and there were numerous and VALID allegations of him sexually harrassing his female employees. His fitness gym also had serious financial problems with this business - it eventually went “bust” and closed.
What I dislike about Phil McGraw is his bombastic, egotistical personality. He is a “Know It All” and frequently insults and talks down to the guests on his show. The premise of the show is embarrassing and talking down to the guests. THIS is why people tune in to watch his program. I don’t like “Judge Judy” either - because she is rude, insulting to guests on her program BUT at least she is a REAL judge with a valid license……..unlike Phil McGraw who is banned from practicing as a clinical psychologist because he lost his license to practice.
Let’s face it - the primary premise of the Dr Phil show is it serves as an INFOMERCIAL for Phil McGraw to hawk his products, sell his merchandise, plug his sons tv shows and sell his wifes crappy skin care products. EVERY SINGLE EPISODE has “product placement” informercial segment with Phil McGraw selling his products
He is a television personality who appeals to a certain segment of the population.
Everyone seems to be attacking this stuff because they can't refute what he said in the interview.

Changing a school name doesn’t erase someone from history! Neither does removing a statue…
Look into the history of most of those memorials. Erected well after the war ended by the Daughters of the Confederacy in a deliberate effort to terrorize Blacks.
Let's not forget that these statues are not destroyed they are just moved to an indoor museum. They just want to throw a tantrum because they can't warship it as easily
True. So this should really be a non issue
No it doesn't... However, a school named after a confederate or a statue of such a person sends the wrong message of what we're about.
Churches don't have statues of Satan, neither are they named after Lucifer, etc. because they obviously do not glorify the Devil.
People who object to having a building renamed so as not to honor a confederate or removing a statue of said person don't read history, Adam.
They have pride in what they did back then. They just can’t say it out loud.

Dr Phil presents the fact that universities are engaging in cancel culture and Pakman immediately and disingenuously turns it into a conversation about professors losing tenure.

It Never fails to amaze how even the most “intelligent” republican fails to grasp simple, elementary level concepts.
Dr. Phil asked a couple of times, “Where are the parents?” with regard to the increase in certain crimes…Where are the parents?! Many are at second or third jobs (or trying to rest in between) because rent and everyday living expenses - concerns that Dr. Phil, most likely, does NOT struggle with - have increased disproportionately to any amount of significant, yet deceptive, wage increases.
What about a a lot of the familial crimes, both parents are there then. And there are a lot of them. That has nothing to do with the parents not being in the home. Jeffrey Dahmer had his parents. that’s why I don’t really agree with that psychology about the lack of a parent being the issue. I could find a outlier for every single thing that was said say for instance a parent dies. It’s ridiculous to think these things are the issues with crime. Crime is a choice no matter what situation you are in. There are people that come from suburban homes and go to retail outlets and commit thefts. This is why the conservative mind is complex and filled with conspiracy theories that they think of as fact. This odd way of thinking will have us all in a situation like the women and people of Afghanistan.

Lee. I'm a 64 y/o white man and even I can see how imposing it would be for students of color to be sitting in the classroom of a school named in honor of a white nationalist. Mr. McGraw's unenlightened view that we should leave the names of white nationalists on monuments and buildings to remind us of our history reveals just how detached from reality he is that systematic racism is still alive and well in our country. He speaks as if prejudice and racism are things of the past and they certainly are not. For him to say he knows nothing about politics is pretty rich considering @2:30 in the interview he readily admits there are politicians on both sides of the aisle that talk about topics like immigration, culture etc. that he covers in his new book. IMO he's so abreast of current politics and how lucrative right wing positions and talking points can be that he's cashing in just as droves of other well recognized names have. Props to Dave for holding McGraw's feet to the fire. We'll never know how many times throughout the interview but I'm sure Dr. Phil asked himself, "Why the hell did I agree to this interview? I just wanna sell my damn book."
True, his argument about removing names of infamous Confederates, racists and traitors is insulting. But I sure don't see much evidence here of David "holding his feet to the fire". It's another example of trying to appear collegial while barely pushing back on anything McGraw says. It's weak on rejoinders and counter-argument. The bit about tenured professors being fired or not is a minor point at best and goes on for too long without benefit.
@@surfwriter8461 I agree with what you say but am not surprised. There's very little push back from journalists nowadays. It's disappointing.
@@janetblanc7658 Too many let lies and outrageous comments just go right through the interviewer. That's not good journalism. But I have seen a few good interviewers who really do press the issue when the guest says something so dishonest or offensive that it can't be permitted.
@@surfwriter8461 There is the occasional one but not enough.I think American journalists fear repercussions; here in Europe they are much more aggressive. The American people deserve better.
@@surfwriter8461 I get where you're coming from but in my opinion it was masterful how articulately Dave suggested his views could be considered right wing talking points and then allowing DR. Phil to respond without confrontation. The longer McGraw was allowed to speak without interruption the more revealing his right wing beliefs became.
Thank you, David. You're brilliant at outing these grifters.
Every white man elevated by Oprah goes down this path: Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, and Donald Trump.
I don’t recall Oprah promoting Trump, but she def did Dr Oz and Dr Phil.
@lisaflower1152 she had him on her show back when Art of Deal was out. It was show with people worshipping him. I remember watching it and thanking why are they all cheering, he is a conman. She probably had him on more than once but that is one I watched
Can't blame them from taking inspirations from her.
Interesting

No, Dr. Phil, I cannot believe it.
He's so not political that he spoke at a political rally. Maybe he can gaslight his talk show audience, but that garbage doesn't work here.
Dr. Phil has said publicy on his show, he supports or believes in Trump. He thinks Ttump is a good businessman. He lost all credibilty in my eyes.
@@denihawkins1 Filing for bankruptcy is what a business man who is good at milking the system uses to get richer and richer. That's what bankruptcy is really for - to shield rich people from huge losses when things go badly. So in that regards he is a "good business man". Now if you are talking ethical or does a good job at running the business, that is another matter.
Especially since Trump isn’t a good businessman, just a good con artist.
@@aaronbono4688 Some may say that is good at business, but not a good person in my opinion.
He is a good businessman man. That’s why he’s so successful.
