@@MarcillaSmith well, you know what the bible says about woman speaking, namely that they shouldn't. I think jesus would have words for her being on that debate.
Exactly. Being a fascist doesn't make you safe from fascism, and make no mistake, nobody's safe from fascism. As soon as their more immediate enemies are dealt with, if not sooner, they'll turn to the next target, again and again until they're either stopped or there's nobody left. Even if, through sheer luck, you somehow don't fall into a single group any of them hate today (and that's very unlikely considering how many different groups various fascists think are subhuman), there's no guarantee that will be the case tomorrow. You could become disabled at any point, if you're not today, and as you get older, it's pretty likely you WILL, assuming you don't die first. And even if you don't change, there's no guarantee the fascists won't decide that a group that includes you is no longer OK.
Blaire just wants to be the last trans to get axed in the fashy ethnostate the side she's fighting for will create. She doesn't care about anyone else, as long as she gets to stick around longer.

Blaire White used to be more of a centrist and I enjoyed some of her content. It's too bad she's essentially sold out for hate-filled content to stoke culture wars. Tiresome... but still, I imagine deep inside she's still a decent person. That's why she acted the way she did in this video imo

Lauren is a perfect example of how certain conservatives view the world. She agrees with Blaire on so many things, and Blaire is nothing but respectful to her. It’s just the fact that she’s trans, that Blaire is treated less than human. It’s not “culture,” or “morals,” it’s simply her identity that puts a target on Blaire’s back. Lauren is such a genuinely bad person that it’s incredible.
Lauren is right…Just like Christians are to be of the mindset “I may be the only Bible the people I meet will ever read”..meaning be a good living example of the Gospel message. Blaire is, whether admitted or not, a representative of trans. If she doesn’t want kids going trans then don’t be a trans TH-camr.
She's brainwashed by Christianity. By the violent, fickle male god. With a bunch of ancient, aggressive men making everything up behind the scenes. Men who don't care about other men (who are different from them) and who were okay with pedophilia and never condemned it out of all the outrageously detailed sexual acts they condemned (including homosexuality). They don't condemn what gives them an upper hand (pedophilia, which was a prerogative RIGHT in the ancient middle east). I was brainwashed like her too.
@@hustinjunt8879 Nobody “wants kids to go trans.” Gender is instilled in the brain from an extremely young age, if not from birth, and it can’t be learned. The only things related to gender that CAN be learned are tolerance and curiosity, and both of those are good for children. I know you won’t believe this, but people (even children and teens) tend to know whether they are straight or cis. Not very many people detransition, and of those that do, plenty are forced to by factors OTHER THAN their gender identity. Lauren may be right-wing, but she isn’t actually “right” about very much. She’s an ignorant, bigoted pick-me girl.
This is the group of people Blaire has chosen to try to suck up to. Like Milo Yiannopoulos, they'll turn on her and she'll keep trying to be "The good one" and like Milo, she'll fail and be their cast off. And she has to know it. So to hell with her.
It's frightening to consider that a large portion of the electorate is either nuts like the two on the right or willing to put up with and even go along with the nuts for unspecified goals (cause I just can't figure out what is to be gained here for them) like the two on the left.
@@chalkedlines8960 The answer to the mystery is money. They are after money. They want conservatives to give them money for being a trained pet minority that some conservatives like to point to and hide their bigotry.
I mean the way things are going more and more people support trans rights and eventually people like Witzke will be remembered as religious nutcases. Sad really, I don't think she deserves to be remembered at all.
I love how she worded that. That "children can't even get therapy if they choose to change their mind." Dear... if they've _chosen_ to change their mind... Why the _fuck_ would "conversion therapy" even be involved? That shit is to _force_ you to change your mind. I love how consistently dishonest these people are and _know_ they have to be to put forth their disgusting agenda.
I can't believe this guy really sat there and said that he fundamentally believes in societal hierarchy. As in, some people inherently deserve mistreatment. He just sat there and said that as if it was a logical and totally okay thing to believe.
@herodotus53 The sad part is that they're right about that. An actual hierarchy like they're pretending to want would need a socially equal utopia as a starting point. That way, everyone can have the same education, nutrition, opportunities, ect and can be fairly judged who is "better". But instead, they're proposing a hierarchy that just codifies the power they have now as deserved by virtue of them having that power now.
@@dewangbakshy7789 It's not unbeleivable at all. You know when laundry detergent companies have you write a letter explaining why you love TIDE in order to enter a draw to win money? Well the reason they do this is because every time you write or say something you commit to it. Blaire has spent YEARS committing herself to this, so no - it isn't surprising at all. She's probably as unable to separate her personality and lifestyle from these politics as anyone on 4chan.
Unbelievable how she can just say that in her first statement. I'm sure she also complains about how hateful and intolerant the left is, right? So extremely hateful and Blaire White stayed on instead of immediately leaving. And yet she still claims LGBT people are less accepting of her than Republicans. It's hard to have sympathy for someone like that.
Listening to Lauren Witzke speak as a person from Delaware makes my skin crawl. Seeing her big campaign signs that literally said “protect the family!” on the side of the road really just solidified to me how much the modern republican is no longer trying to hide the fascism

People are moving on and becoming more accepting, and if not, the holders of these beliefs are dying out.

I think to conservatives, your body belongs to humanity...and depending on what you do with your body, humanity's "property" needs to follow the quote on quote "natural order". I know this, because they always give this sentiment when speaking of others and what they do to their bodies. You have to be of "use" to their own worldview.
Actually, all of the conservatives I know believe that adults should indeed be free to transition "their own bodies and time that doesn't affect anyone else in any way". I have not seen any substantial call to ban adults from voluntarily transitioning themselves at their own cost. Where the conflict comes in is when it DOES affect others - when others are coerced to participate and agree with whatever self-perception an adult trans person asserts. It's the blatent coercion of others which causes most of the pushback. To be clear, I'm not talking about "others" causing actual harm like assaulting - all people should be free of that. I'm talking more about things like punishment for "misgendering", which comprises forcing other people to (appear to) agree with whatever gender a person asserts. I'm not at the moment taking sides, just noting the difference. I can understand why some trans folks would want to control others in the way they do, and I can also understand why some others do not want to be controlled.
"Best thing you can do for us is grow out your mustache" Holy shit, dude. That's awful. That's just an awful thing to say. Blaire, are these really the people you wanna talk to? Like, wouldn't you rather be anywhere else talking to anyone else?

@@Velereonics Why should she say yes? There's zero civility, non-existant moderation, neither parties gain enlightenment on the issue at the end...

You can insist that's debate if you want, but I'd personally rather tweez my pubes than attend, the end result would mostly be the same.
@@Velereonics there is a difference between “disagreeing“ and open verbal hatred and attacks. How Lauren spoke about and to Blair White was abusive, not civil disagreement.

@@vraisairs9201 LOL oh god, no.. the type that says it is authoritarian out right, so everyone is clear about who they are. I'm not supporting authoritarian politics, was mainly making a joke
Blaire White: "If we have a conversation about whether or not I'm a human being, then that would begin to sound like a leftist conversation. So instead, let's talk about whether or not we can get votes by hating gay people."
No matter how hard I think about it I can’t see how changing your gender to another gender would have any kind of connection to being attracted to a child…?
In the eyes of the reactionary right, they view any and all members of the LGBTQ+ community as being "deviant", and by accepting _one_ form of deviant behavior, it opens the door for society to accept even more extreme deviations from the norm. They paint it as a slippery slope to pedophilia acceptance that quite simply doesn't exist.
these people believe there is an invisible man in the sky who watches all of them every day to make sure they follow ten rules and if they dont hell send them to a fiery, torterous eternal suffering, but nonetheless still loves them. Youre arguing with people who are delusional, of course its not going to go anywhere.
OK. I will try to describe the reasoning, without endorsing it. In their view, it's not that THE SAME PEOPLE who are transgender will obviously also be attracted to minors. Their concept is that the same kinds of reasoning which supports LGBTQIA+ activism, can also be applied to MAP (minor attracted persons, look it up if you are not familiar with them). The concept currently being promoted by self-identified "minor attracted persons" in attempting to be accepted under the LGBTQIA+ umbrella is that they too have no control over their attractions, any more than a gay person could decide to be straight or a trans person could decide to be cis, so society should likewise support rather than stigmatize them. This is a real movement seeking inclusion today, not a figment of conservatives. However, no mainstream LGBTQIA+ organization is accepting MAP as part of their cause today, and most members would strongly oppose that. But given the continual expansion of what's under the LGBTQQIAA+ umbrella, conservatives fear that the same logic will eventually lead to "accepting" MAP as a legitimate oppressed sexual minority. The gender transitioning of minors based on treating them as capable of understanding the lifelong implications of a decision, raises for conservatives the question of whether there will eventually be a move to also allow youths to "consent" to sex with a MAP. While we cannot control what the LTBTQIA+ movement will do in the future, we can hope that the concept that young people cannot meaningfully consent to some things will forever remain valid for the movement. I personally am clear about that. But the conservative fear is not entirely baseless, or invented out of thin air. I can understand how they could see a progression which would lead to that in the future, even if most of us today do not subscribe to that. Again, I'm trying to explain the concern I've seen, without agreeing that it's inevitable or desirable. We should understand the concern fairly, rather than invent a strawman.
@@zephsmith3499 I get that you're not endorsing these beliefs, and I understand exactly what you're saying, but also... their reasoning is still terrible. And that's because humans are actually fully capable of doing one thing and not another. Children can have the bodily autonomy to express themselves as transgender, and no, that does not mean society needs to give them the legal authority to consent to csa. Likewise, we as a society can fully accept all LGBTQ+ people, a group whose interests do not cause harm, without accepting MAPs, a group that does cause harm. I don't know what it is with far-right conservatives (and a lot of other people as well, tbh) and this persistent, baffling inability to think outside of these one-size-must-fit-all authoritarian dichotomies.
"Bonkers" really is the best way to describe watching that debate. Where a man literally calls for inequality and hiearachy as his platform and HE'S the one that's called reasonable. It was crazy to read the comments of that video where everyone was saying he was based.

Blaire White is the person who helped me grow out of conservatism. Transgender people used to be something that disgusted me. I was unsure about her at first, but her being “conservative” opened me up to trans ideas and that eventually lead me to consider more things. What else was I wrong about? I’ve now years later come full circle and realize how shit she is politically, but she did do something important for me as a young conservative.

I think it's more that the younger generation's are moving wayyyy left, then mahr moving right, but i still do think he genuinely has moved right over the decades. then again, he always was a rich prick, he's just no longer "our" rich prick. as many people have pointed out from different positions, reformist's don't hate that someone is dominating, they despise that THEY aren't the ones dominating. now that bill mahr has all the trapping's of power after being an outsider for so long, he has turned into the hypocritical, myopic, deceitful and uncritical people he has lampooned for decades. kind of like colbert also. stewart seem's like he hasn't shifted at all, but understand's that there are younger, more radical people taking the lead, and is willing at least to hear them out and still learn something. john oliver seem's like his genuine heir, rather than trevor noah, but even Oliver is less radical than many zillenial's and zoomers are shaping up to be.

Wow that whole “republicans were super optimistic, and the dems are gloom & doom” is quite the statement. Its almost as if one ignores all the problems and the other wants to actually address them. Political theatre vs actual politics
You know she's lying about being a former Bernie supporter when compared to the other Democratic candidates, his rallies were ALWAYS high energy. His base is composed of passionate people that are tired of the bad poltical establishment. The "doom and gloom" statement is also loaded with how that was literally Trumps who rhetoric: The "other" is out to get you whether its non whites, immigrants, gays etc as opposed to Bernie who always had a diverse following which also included loads non crazy white people
@@Spongebrain97 I don't actually doubt that she might have been a Bernie supporter. She sounds like someone who gets swept up by whatever motivated group she's surrounded by at the time and doesn't have an ounce of critical thought in her own head. She literally decided to support Trump because she had more fun with Trump supporters. The rhetoric and politics mean nothing to her, just how the group makes her feel. The solutions to problems that progressive liberals like Sanders bring to light are challenging. There's a lot of human suffering in the world and no easy way to fix it. Trumpism on the other hand offers you easy scapegoats and a magic man who claims to be the messiah who will fix everything with the wave of a magic wand. It's not shocking that once she was confronted with very real issues after the initial excitement she got from the promise of liberal reform that she'd switch to the party who thinks they can fix everything by chanting loudly to a demagogue. She doesn't care what they actually stand for. She's definitely not alone in this either. I've met so many Trump supporters in real life who are politically illiterate. When you ask them how they feel on certain issues and why they can at best repeat soundbite responses and at worst don't really know why or because it upsets people they don't like.
@@SeekerLancer true that. Carlyn was also annoying to listen to because in her mind Trump is the way to go despite the fact that he gave a voice to crazy people like Lauren who cruelly mocked Carlyn to her face and insulted her husband who is an immigrant, saying he should be deported despite becoming a citizen after marrying her. Does she not notice that correlation between Trumps rhetoric and people like Lauren??

Were the trans people supposed to go, "You know what? I agree! Your momentary discomfort is far more important than my right to work or pursue an education in a non-hostile environment."

I could maybe agree that the people at a Trump rally were nice to her (as long as you can ignore all the t-shirt and signs about murdering people) but Trump speeches are just airings of grievances.

It always catches me of guard when I'm confronted with the mindless, inhuman hate and cruelty of morally bankrupt social conservatives like Lauren Witsky. Their behaviour is so reprehensible that it initially leaves me in a state of shock. I struggle to comprehend how it's even possible for a person to be so perfectly awful. I know that everyone has the potential to grow, learn and improve, and so usually, I'm able to have compassion for people who are behaving badly. I think, "you clearly have some issues, and I hope you manage to work that stuff out in the long run". But people like Lauren Witsky are on another level for me. Their hatred feels so stable and impenetrable. They seem utterly and fully committed to being vile, disgusting human beings. I find it extremely hard to believe in the possibility that anything good could ever come from someone like Lauren Witsky. Blaire White clearly has a stronger heart than I do, and I deeply respect her for that.
blaire doesn't have a strong heart. just heaps of internalized transphobia and the understanding that being the token anti-trans trans girl for the right wing is very profitable.
I think about that too, and honestly the best thing we can do is try to prevent kids from growing up to be adults that hate like Lauren, and limit people like Laurens power over everyone elses freedoms. Its really sad because to grow up like that you have to come from a really harsh environment with lots of hateful people, and plenty of self hate too, to bury your own empathy that far down.

New England's left-leaning appearance masks the sizable rural population which is less diverse, more conservative, and less tolerant of LGBT people. Also, during the Trump era, right wing politicians are rewarded within their own circles for espousing extreme positions. 38% is consistent with Trump's polling on a national level, and it seems likely that someone like Witzke could get at least 30% anywhere in the country.

i said it on TRO's video and I will say it here, Blaire is a perfect case study of the trans people that lay on places like /lgbt/, self loathing, sad, depressed people who take their anger on others as a way to either stand as "one of the good ones" or as a way to self harm. She wants to be seen as one of the "cool trans", not the "weird loonies", she desperately wants to appeal to a target audience that, on their core, hates her. It's just sad.
I agree. But I don’t think her transness is what motivates her to be conservative - if she was born as a cis woman I would predict she would be nearly as transphobic as Lauren. I think Blair is as conservative as she possibly can be without completely erasing herself. It’s not just to be as palatable and pandering as possible to bigots, but she literally pushes transphobia as far as it can possibly be pushed without being closeted - like she can say transphobic things to trans kids because she’s not a trans kid, and she can say transphobic things about non-binary people because she’s not non-binary, but she can’t be fully against the legal right to transition as an adult because she would have to cease her existence as a passing woman. For any conservative idiots reading this: At least y’all can see that being trans is not a choice. It’s so not a choice that a conservative like Blair can’t even choose to be cisgender, despite that it would make her life far easier to ‘just not be trans’ in the conservative space. She literally has to allow people from her own political party to say dehumanizing, violent things to get by.
Blaire reminds me so much of myself when I first started transitioning. I was in highschool at the time and actually believed if I tried to make myself “one of the good ones.” Like tolerating things like people purposely misgendering me, being made the butt of jokes, sometimes even putting down other people in the lgbt community, it would make things easier for me in the long run of life. Not only did that make me miserable, but it didn’t even work. Thankfully, I got to grow out of that toxic mindset with maturity and didn’t have to stick to those beliefs due to my entire career being tied to it.
When you try to convince someone who disagrees with your very existence that you're "one of the good ones," you're already inadvertently accepting their bigoted rhetoric. To try to mold yourself to to please the sensibilities of those who hate you is to succumb to their hatred and let them have dominance over you. The right response to this is not "you're wrong about me," but rather "you're wrong."
It's not that hard because she's not particularly right wing. The only conservative values she holds are freedom to happiness, small government, and the free market. Other than that, she's pretty liberal, all things considering.

Yeah, hearing her try to defend her right to be a trans person to other conservatives always gives me knots in my stomach. It reminds me of when I was an ultra-conservative kid realizing that no matter what I did, I was never going to be embraced by the conservative community around me because I'm gay. Eventually, I did a complete 180° turn on my politics, but it made me feel really terrible at the time.
@@BSR-zy2so The difference is that you haven’t been making a career out of throwing other trans people to the wolves since 2015. She knew what kind of a community this would become, but she helped create it anyway.
I kind of appreciate the "mask off" hatred of trans people on display. It shows that there is no point in trying to concede anything to bigots, because their goal is to completely remove trans people from public life even if that means people dying. You don't make peace with that kind of hate. You stand in defiance of it and you survive it.
@Dynah Dixon I was latino conservative sort of and I stopped being conservative after the some channels I followed went full mask off about their white supremacy and after I saw how anti diversity type stuff was just code for racism/sexism.
@@coletrain546 And they will tell you diversity and multi"cult"urism is "codeword" for anti-white. Or they will mock you with "diversity is our strength." It seems they are utterly incapable of seeing that all things can exist in a space together. No one's gonna get "cooties" if you live and work in the same space as someone else. I'm not anti white, anti black, anti Latino...anti-Asian...Anti- (insert race here) anyone, really. That's stupid. I mean, I can be a lil' nihilistic, but that's a completely different topic, mostly stemming from how humanity treats itself. XD It's more along the lines of people thinking their rights will evaporate if say women or LGBT have basic human rights. It's some weird tug of war thing. They literally live in a black and white world. When I hear the term "anti-racist = anti-white", I feel the people who say that are just tragically saying more than they mean to, and it doesn't help them in any way. To me, it's as if they are literally saying that the natural default for white is racist-mode, and to be against racism is to be against white (them)...which is racist...which true racists will either deny or proudly embrace given the circumstances. And not only that, they are completely convinced everyone else is just like them (racist), but to be against racism is to be against them (white)...specifically. Excuse me, but that "logic" never fails to melt my brain. And it's really baffling that if you are pro-everyone, and just want to live in peace, you are this "anti white" and wish to kill all white people in some any-day-now "race war". So naturally, with this mindset, they will go on full balls to the walls warrior mode and will get you (anyone who's against them) before you get them. Like, wut? Where in the actual eff did that come from? XD It tells me more that people like that don't see themselves as part of the human collective. They see themselves in some elite class above the rest of humanity, hence the "supremacy." And it's not just white people, I've seen that same stupidity from just about every human group under the sun, and they all have their own equally stupid justifications. Too much of the Stupid KoolAid will do that.
The first two sentences of Lauren shocked me like oh my god. If I was Blaire I would instantly think this is a mistake, what am I doing with my life hanging out and associating myself with these people? Degeneracy? Gateway to pedophilia? I‘m at 2:23 and already had to pause. Damn wtf.
There are actual good arguments for natural law theory, such as that of Finnis, which don't rely solely on believing religion to be the basis just because, advocating for a set of basic moral principals almost all humans share due to our functional needs. But absolutely, hella conservatives tend to use these phrases with no legitimate thought or reasoning put into it besides "because that's how God made it," deciding to ignore literally all aspects of "nature" that go against what they're claiming.
"Degenerate" just means "anything I'm not used to and are therefore uncomfortable with". These people are just so painfully transparent, they think like toddlers with neglectful parents.
People of personality types tend to flock together. It should be of NO surprise that these kinds of people infest the CONSERVative organizations. It's worldwide too. Drop the party names and labels for once, and look at the words, actions, minds, spirits, goals...basically, the PERSONALITIES of these people. They're basically running off the same exact same hardware. And if it's one thing people like this lack, it's compassion...also true empathy, not that self-labeling "empathyfullness" they sometimes like to paint themselves with. These people just don't got it, you can't "grow" a conscience, especially if you see it as weak, or virtue signalling, and I can guarantee you if you could scan all of their brains under an MRI, the little space that lights up for empathy is just door-nail dead in over 90% of them. So, now that we know just who and what these people are, all we can really do is just keep an eye on them, never underestimate them, and make strides to be sure they don't rise to a place of power so they can wreck their havoc on their targets ever again, and get to work on their hierarchical society that they crave. Because if given the opportunity, they sure as heck will. That is a 100% guarantee.
@@ARedMagicMarker "Because if given the opportunity, they sure as heck will. That is a 100% guarantee." That's my biggest problem with the Democratic party. They consistently underestimate conservatives. It's like they can't conceive of a group of people taking conservatism to it's ultimate conclusion even though cons are upfront about it and there are examples of their end goals throughout history. So Dems never put up the fight that they need to, therefore crazy conservatives gain more ground and have sway over our legal system and a sizable chunk of the senate although they represent a smaller portion of the U.S. as a whole. Dems are always bringing speeches to gun fights hoping to appeal to the better natures of conservatives, all the while completely unaware that they don't have better natures- it's all reptile brain and tribalism between their ears.

I've seen a lot of commentary wincing at the terrible things Blaire allowed to be said about herself without comment. And people have asked how she can align herself with people who clearly want to hurt her. The answer is simple: She's a conservative. There are many dimensions of conservatism, many different forms that conservatism can take. Blaire White is exactly like the other two in kind, but not in *degree.* And she knows that. She's there *because* she is like them. She doesn't hate herself; she hates all non-conservative trans people who refuse to "police" other trans people. She hates trans people who haven't put forth the effort (aka: money) to be trans like she did. She hates trans children because being trans is supposed to take a lot of work to figure out, and if a child can figure it out, then that means it isn't that hard. The only difference between herself and Lauren Witsky is that Lauren removes all of the qualifiers. She doesn't hate "trans people who ..."; she just hates "trans people". Blaire White's political ideology offers her a choice. She can join the side that shares her broad ideology but hates her with a burning passion. Or she can join the side that recognizes her right to be trans but refuses to police other trans people and limit them the way she feels they ought to be limited.
Transgender drugs and surgeries SHOULD be limited! As should transgender women in cisgender women's spaces and sports competitions! I'm glad Blaire White is sane enough to realize that! Too bad she is the only transgender person to do so it seems.
Blaire White does not "hate" anyone who you are saying she hates. She openly states in her videos that she went through a transition and has been in their shoes before. What she does do is protest against people who make transgender-ism a trend, and those who do not treat it as what it is (a mental disorder). I mean that with no disrespect. That is simply what it is. Contrary to what Joel said, she does not focus on trans people in her videos. She exposes pedophiles. Some of which are trans, but those who are are using that as an excuse for their pedophilia. Also, the biggest topic she discusses is how it is wrong for transitions to be forced onto kids. She says openly that even though there are exceptions to children transitioning (meaning sometimes it works out and everyone is happy), there are still handfuls of children who transition young and it ruins their lives because it was an uninformed decision. Therefore, children transitioning shouldn't be allowed due to the risks. She is not an extremist, nor is she bigoted. All of her views are level, and are for the safety of everyone. Respectfully, do your research before making bold assumptions.
I mean they're just outright fascists. They're fascists telling a trans person "we're gonna come for you", and she's saying, "no, don't come for me, I believe some of the same things as you", and they're saying "no, we're gonna come for you." That's how fascism works.

I appreciate Doyle’s ability to actually understand his ideology. He isn’t as deluded but more so his moral compass and values come from a place which we, the left, fundamentally disagree with. He reminds me of that character from 1984 who eventually is vaporized that was very pro-totalitarian regime and actually admitted it was a totalitarian regime. I forget his name but its the guy in Winston’s lunchroom towards the beginning who explains double think
Watch his video on how Beauty and The Beast is actually a conservative story about a narcissistic Belle who, as a stupid feeeeemoid, dumbly rejects Gaston, the masculine hero and protagonist of the story. Doyle simps for Gaston hardcore and claims that his illiteracy is a sign of how he as a masculine man he values the objective and Belle is a narcissist for reading. Doyle is delusional as fuck
yes. he saw the truth and it didnt matter what he thought about the truth. as conservatives get increasingly brazen with their fascist-adjacency, and occasionally straight up fascism, this becomes less true. a man who acknowledges the truth and likes it becomes the model republican, rather than the target Syme was.
I was totally surprised that John Doyle just said it out loud like that, that conservatism is fundamentally about enforcing hierarchy, as opposed to liberal egalitarianism. I think this is a major reason he comes off as the more reasonable one: that's a major premise that works. It follows, then, that the conservatives would see transgender people as "less than" and worthy of suppression/oppression. The counterargument that would have led to a fruitful debate would be a defense of the respective sides' opinion on the correct balance of egalitarianism versus hierarchy. But Blaire couldn't make that argument because she is not, actually, egalitarian or liberal. She values her place in the hierarchy--her whole brand is being not one of *those* kinds of trans person--so she HAS to defend it. She did a terrible debate because she is in an untenable logical posture, whereas the conservatives did better because despite being batshit they have essentially taken their premise to its logical, terrible conclusion.
i think the reason john doyle is so great at this is that he knows that all off the arguments to not let trans people have rights while maintaining a "we are all for human rights" are bullshit invented by conservatives to seem more liberal, hes a guy who we cant debate because he simply has very different morals that us, which means we have different goals than him, he doesnt prettend he has the same morals as us, hes really honest in saying (not outright saying this frase but sort off meaning it): "im a facist who cares about being in power which is the opposite off what you want so we both fundamentally cant agree on things" now this isnt me supporting him, i also despise his morals but if were being honest, hes a very honest dude, a bad one but still honest
From what little I saw of the guy here he impressed me. Just kinda straight up about his viewpoint without seeming to go for shock value. Don’t know much about him outside of this but appreciate his approach in comparison to the others. That’s also probably why he has such a small following compared to the others.
@@marmolejomartinezjoseemili9043 Sometimes noting someone's virtues only serves to highlight how few of them they have.

While a dishonest asshole makes me angrier, the honest ones make me more frustrated and sad, so it's only technically an improvement because honesty has inherent value to me and because I deal with sadness a lot better than I deal with anger.

“What about our children?” That question has been a rallying cry for bigotry, misogyny, and patriarchal authoritarianism since I can remember, and I’m old. All the while, child poverty seems most prevalent in red states. I know it is in Texas, as are children who are food insecure. Their concern for the children is only a concern if it costs them no money, and only extends to white, straight, Christians’ children.
I'm kind of sick of people standing up for the children. Why are they the authority on everything? Why can't they represent themselves in debates? We're always hearing about the children's concerns, but never FROM the children. In future debates I wish for children not to be represented some puppet adult, but the foremost child.
"What about the children" is honestly a pretty common refrain from people on both sides of the aisle when they want to appeal to emotion. Want to ban something? Children. Want to get more funding? Children. Want to paint the other side as monsters? Children.
Poverty of all sorts is most prevalent in the red states, for what should be pretty obvious reasons. It's actually pretty sad; if you take a look at the most right-wing parts of the country on any sort of objective level, in terms of quality of life, lifespan, income, infrastructure, etc, they're by and large middle-of-the-road developing nations,ranging between Romania and Brazil. It's gotten to the point that *China* has begun to outsource some of its most environmentally disastrous industries to the South because it's cheaper than doing it somewhere with the rudimentary regulations of India.
The fact that Lauren said that to Blair’s face… I know several transgender women and they are wonderful people who deserve to live their truth, and the fact that another trans woman is not only actively working against that, but is allowing herself to be degraded by the people she’s trying so desperately to impress is nothing short of embarrassing. Brown nosing at its finest

"Debate" that's a cool way to describe what happened there, I guess. But also imagine hearing someone state your identity is "a gateway drug to pedophilia" and then not reacting
The "moderator" was literally egging it on in between selling buckets of food. It was a car crash. I think Blair thought it would be a debate and she even got Doyle to agree with her. Nazi barbie instead saw it as a hour long "bully Blair" fest
I think Karlyn's comment to Lauren "Between the two of us, I'm the one whose married with a family" is so interesting. Both Karlyn and Lauren have qualities about them that could be considered anti-conservative. Karlyn has short hair and Lauren is single without any children. If either of them lived in the past, they would probably be discriminated against for these reasons, and yet they both still identify as conservative. It just shows that the idea of conservatism is very nebulous and maybe not worth defending.
"It's not a debate, it's a _focus group_ " - perfectly said. Blaire: "I just think, I guess, that if you want to advance your agenda of eliminating people like myself you need to, I dunno, maybe hide your antisocial tendencies behind a facade of human decency." Ball of Simmering Hatred: "Well, by listening to your ideas I guess that makes me somewhat "tolerant" - so I've deviated from my values. My husband is gonna discipline me for that... wish you'd considered that before selfishly choosing to have a platform at this discussion." Blaire: "They called _me_ tho-" Ball of Simmering Hatred: "WAS I NOT CLEAR? Stop speaking! I'm in for Hell as it is!"

The fact that she's this willing to accept people who think so little of her, that she apparently agrees enough with them to try to be their ally/shield, it just so... existentially depressing.
Joel it's so important for you to make videos like this as a straight white guy who's an lgbt ally because you can watch this kind of shit without getting triggered and then make it funny and break it down for us. Thanks for putting a funny pirate guy on the content warning.
It is nice to see someone with less of an immediate emotional attachment, makes a good gateway for "apolitical" people that would get turned off by a trans person breaking down in the face of such vile disgusting dehumanization. It sucks that it's needed because being emotionally invested in your own human rights is seen as "losing the debate".
Blaire White lied about "being the most vocal anti children transitioning person on the internet" is a flat out lie. She has interviewed a trans girl on her channel before who transitioned as a teenager and at the end of the video Blaire says that while she doesn't think kids transitioning is a good idea, sometimes it's absolutely important for a child's mental health. Even her opinion on this isn't as conservative as she portrays here
It's hilarious because she tries to embrace conservative's ideas *but* she IS trans and she can't just escape it. Like managing to transition young is the dream of all trans people, and seeing kids managing to get proper care and being able to avoid all the pain you've suffered is galvanizing, like for any other minority that was mostly defined by their pain, seeing their future members live lives that are free from those negative experiences...so she cannot do anything but ending up supporting it in a way, while saving face with some excuses. I mean exactly like in this video, she knows she can't detransition for her mental health, and yet she will just avert her eyes and draw an excuse there when asked to face what conservative priciples mean
@@fluffy_tail4365 yeah she doesn't realise that there's bigots in the Republican party that will not accept her due to her being trans. For many transphobia has nothing to do with sometrans people acting cringey and some sjws acting insane, bigots don't like her because she's trans and there's no way you can reson with those people
It is better for trans people to delay puberty and transition early. Blair is lucky that she looks so feminine after transitioning as an adult. She was a pretty boy. Most people aren't they lucky. Its obviously good to wait as long as possible so the child is sure that is what they actually want. But once they've been through puberty they could end up needing lots of feminisation surgeries and will make their life a lot harder in the long run. Hopefully psychologists are good at sorting out the truly trans kids from the non binary or just confused.
Don't practice what you preach. Honestly, I dunno which is worse: Following your ideology to a T with no exceptions, or loosely use your ideology as a guideline, but really have no values.

Lauren's logic: "What about the children. We have to think about the children". But not allowing a child into a loving home bc it's a mom and a mom or a dad and a dad; child abuse; and literal child torture (conversion therapy) is ay ok. Wow, so caring s/

As soon as their more immediate enemies are dealt with, if not sooner, they'll turn to the next target, again and again until they're either stopped or there's nobody left.

You could become disabled at any point, if you're not today, and as you get older, it's pretty likely you WILL, assuming you don't die first. And even if you don't change, there's no guarantee the fascists won't decide that a group that includes you is no longer OK.

Lauren is a perfect example of how certain conservatives view the world. She agrees with Blaire on so many things, and Blaire is nothing but respectful to her. It’s just the fact that she’s trans, that Blaire is treated less than human. It’s not “culture,” or “morals,” it’s simply her identity that puts a target on Blaire’s back. Lauren is such a genuinely bad person that it’s incredible.
Lauren is right…Just like Christians are to be of the mindset “I may be the only Bible the people I meet will ever read”..meaning be a good living example of the Gospel message. Blaire is, whether admitted or not, a representative of trans. If she doesn’t want kids going trans then don’t be a trans TH-camr.
@@hustinjunt8879 no Lauren is not right. And Blaire is surely not making any kid trans😂😂 Take your pills
She's brainwashed by Christianity. By the violent, fickle male god. With a bunch of ancient, aggressive men making everything up behind the scenes. Men who don't care about other men (who are different from them) and who were okay with pedophilia and never condemned it out of all the outrageously detailed sexual acts they condemned (including homosexuality). They don't condemn what gives them an upper hand (pedophilia, which was a prerogative RIGHT in the ancient middle east). I was brainwashed like her too.
@@hustinjunt8879 this just in folks the religion you choose to believe in is the same as your gender identity big brain shit right here
@@hustinjunt8879 Nobody “wants kids to go trans.” Gender is instilled in the brain from an extremely young age, if not from birth, and it can’t be learned. The only things related to gender that CAN be learned are tolerance and curiosity, and both of those are good for children. I know you won’t believe this, but people (even children and teens) tend to know whether they are straight or cis. Not very many people detransition, and of those that do, plenty are forced to by factors OTHER THAN their gender identity.
Lauren may be right-wing, but she isn’t actually “right” about very much. She’s an ignorant, bigoted pick-me girl.
It is disturbing to listen to Lauren talk, but it's even more disturbing to watch Blair sit there and take it. These people are depressing.
This is the group of people Blaire has chosen to try to suck up to. Like Milo Yiannopoulos, they'll turn on her and she'll keep trying to be "The good one" and like Milo, she'll fail and be their cast off. And she has to know it. So to hell with her.

I can't believe this guy really sat there and said that he fundamentally believes in societal hierarchy. As in, some people inherently deserve mistreatment. He just sat there and said that as if it was a logical and totally okay thing to believe.
It's what Jordan P teaches. He uses "IQ" as his determinant, but it's the same result.
The people who think this way always assume they’ll be at the top of every “dominance hierarchy.”
That’s conservatives for ya. 😢
@herodotus53 The sad part is that they're right about that. An actual hierarchy like they're pretending to want would need a socially equal utopia as a starting point. That way, everyone can have the same education, nutrition, opportunities, ect and can be fairly judged who is "better".
But instead, they're proposing a hierarchy that just codifies the power they have now as deserved by virtue of them having that power now.

I think to conservatives, your body belongs to humanity...and depending on what you do with your body, humanity's "property" needs to follow the quote on quote "natural order". I know this, because they always give this sentiment when speaking of others and what they do to their bodies. You have to be of "use" to their own worldview.
Actually, all of the conservatives I know believe that adults should indeed be free to transition "their own bodies and time that doesn't affect anyone else in any way". I have not seen any substantial call to ban adults from voluntarily transitioning themselves at their own cost.
Where the conflict comes in is when it DOES affect others - when others are coerced to participate and agree with whatever self-perception an adult trans person asserts. It's the blatent coercion of others which causes most of the pushback.
To be clear, I'm not talking about "others" causing actual harm like assaulting - all people should be free of that. I'm talking more about things like punishment for "misgendering", which comprises forcing other people to (appear to) agree with whatever gender a person asserts.
I'm not at the moment taking sides, just noting the difference. I can understand why some trans folks would want to control others in the way they do, and I can also understand why some others do not want to be controlled.
"Best thing you can do for us is grow out your mustache"

Blaire White: "If we have a conversation about whether or not I'm a human being, then that would begin to sound like a leftist conversation. So instead, let's talk about whether or not we can get votes by hating gay people."
No matter how hard I think about it I can’t see how changing your gender to another gender would have any kind of connection to being attracted to a child…?
In the eyes of the reactionary right, they view any and all members of the LGBTQ+ community as being "deviant", and by accepting _one_ form of deviant behavior, it opens the door for society to accept even more extreme deviations from the norm. They paint it as a slippery slope to pedophilia acceptance that quite simply doesn't exist.
Well these people think a thousand year old fantasy novel is true and taken seriously. Dont come with logic.
these people believe there is an invisible man in the sky who watches all of them every day to make sure they follow ten rules and if they dont hell send them to a fiery, torterous eternal suffering, but nonetheless still loves them. Youre arguing with people who are delusional, of course its not going to go anywhere.
OK. I will try to describe the reasoning, without endorsing it.
In their view, it's not that THE SAME PEOPLE who are transgender will obviously also be attracted to minors.
Their concept is that the same kinds of reasoning which supports LGBTQIA+ activism, can also be applied to MAP (minor attracted persons, look it up if you are not familiar with them).
The concept currently being promoted by self-identified "minor attracted persons" in attempting to be accepted under the LGBTQIA+ umbrella is that they too have no control over their attractions, any more than a gay person could decide to be straight or a trans person could decide to be cis, so society should likewise support rather than stigmatize them. This is a real movement seeking inclusion today, not a figment of conservatives.
However, no mainstream LGBTQIA+ organization is accepting MAP as part of their cause today, and most members would strongly oppose that.
But given the continual expansion of what's under the LGBTQQIAA+ umbrella, conservatives fear that the same logic will eventually lead to "accepting" MAP as a legitimate oppressed sexual minority.
The gender transitioning of minors based on treating them as capable of understanding the lifelong implications of a decision, raises for conservatives the question of whether there will eventually be a move to also allow youths to "consent" to sex with a MAP.
While we cannot control what the LTBTQIA+ movement will do in the future, we can hope that the concept that young people cannot meaningfully consent to some things will forever remain valid for the movement. I personally am clear about that.
But the conservative fear is not entirely baseless, or invented out of thin air. I can understand how they could see a progression which would lead to that in the future, even if most of us today do not subscribe to that.
Again, I'm trying to explain the concern I've seen, without agreeing that it's inevitable or desirable. We should understand the concern fairly, rather than invent a strawman.
@@zephsmith3499 I get that you're not endorsing these beliefs, and I understand exactly what you're saying, but also... their reasoning is still terrible. And that's because humans are actually fully capable of doing one thing and not another. Children can have the bodily autonomy to express themselves as transgender, and no, that does not mean society needs to give them the legal authority to consent to csa.
Likewise, we as a society can fully accept all LGBTQ+ people, a group whose interests do not cause harm, without accepting MAPs, a group that does cause harm. I don't know what it is with far-right conservatives (and a lot of other people as well, tbh) and this persistent, baffling inability to think outside of these one-size-must-fit-all authoritarian dichotomies.
"Bonkers" really is the best way to describe watching that debate. Where a man literally calls for inequality and hiearachy as his platform and HE'S the one that's called reasonable. It was crazy to read the comments of that video where everyone was saying he was based.
While I do think Doyle is a garbage person, I appreciate his honesty and wish more conservatives were that open about being anti-equality. It would make advocating against them so much easier
Conservatives don't even know what based is.
@@zed_n_d I see your point but in my opinion, fascists should always be afraid to be blatant like that. John Doyle feeling comfortable speaking so freely just shows how much we've conceded to fascism lately. Imo

She sounds like someone who gets swept up by whatever motivated group she's surrounded by at the time and doesn't have an ounce of critical thought in her own head. She literally decided to support Trump because she had more fun with Trump supporters. The rhetoric and politics mean nothing to her, just how the group makes her feel.
The solutions to problems that progressive liberals like Sanders bring to light are challenging. There's a lot of human suffering in the world and no easy way to fix it. Trumpism on the other hand offers you easy scapegoats and a magic man who claims to be the messiah who will fix everything with the wave of a magic wand. It's not shocking that once she was confronted with very real issues after the initial excitement she got from the promise of liberal reform that she'd switch to the party who thinks they can fix everything by chanting loudly to a demagogue. She doesn't care what they actually stand for.
She's definitely not alone in this either. I've met so many Trump supporters in real life who are politically illiterate. When you ask them how they feel on certain issues and why they can at best repeat soundbite responses and at worst don't really know why or because it upsets people they don't like.

It’s the reason the Alt-right automated ban filter banned countless republicans accounts on Twitter, including politicians on the right, leading it to be removed, and why right wingers constantly whine that they’re being censored for being conservative after saying bigoted statements: Bigotry is CRUCIAL to their ideology.
They’ll say: “LGBT people are pedophiles” and then when they get the tweet stormed by angry people say: “‘Conservative thought’ is being outlawed!”
It always catches me of guard when I'm confronted with the mindless, inhuman hate and cruelty of morally bankrupt social conservatives like Lauren Witsky. Their behaviour is so reprehensible that it initially leaves me in a state of shock. I struggle to comprehend how it's even possible for a person to be so perfectly awful.
I know that everyone has the potential to grow, learn and improve, and so usually, I'm able to have compassion for people who are behaving badly. I think, "you clearly have some issues, and I hope you manage to work that stuff out in the long run".
But people like Lauren Witsky are on another level for me. Their hatred feels so stable and impenetrable. They seem utterly and fully committed to being vile, disgusting human beings.
I find it extremely hard to believe in the possibility that anything good could ever come from someone like Lauren Witsky.
Blaire White clearly has a stronger heart than I do, and I deeply respect her for that.
blaire doesn't have a strong heart. just heaps of internalized transphobia and the understanding that being the token anti-trans trans girl for the right wing is very profitable.
I think about that too, and honestly the best thing we can do is try to prevent kids from growing up to be adults that hate like Lauren, and limit people like Laurens power over everyone elses freedoms. Its really sad because to grow up like that you have to come from a really harsh environment with lots of hateful people, and plenty of self hate too, to bury your own empathy that far down.
Stronger heart? What? Why do you respect White?
You might be mentally ill then, mentally ill people often report to feel the same things when someone correctly identifies their mental illness. There was a time when gender dysphoria was indeed considered a mental illness. Not all that long ago in fact.

A lot of people must only look at the letter next to a candidates name rather than evaluate them as an individual
New England's left-leaning appearance masks the sizable rural population which is less diverse, more conservative, and less tolerant of LGBT people. Also, during the Trump era, right wing politicians are rewarded within their own circles for espousing extreme positions. 38% is consistent with Trump's polling on a national level, and it seems likely that someone like Witzke could get at least 30% anywhere in the country.

i said it on TRO's video and I will say it here, Blaire is a perfect case study of the trans people that lay on places like /lgbt/, self loathing, sad, depressed people who take their anger on others as a way to either stand as "one of the good ones" or as a way to self harm.
She wants to be seen as one of the "cool trans", not the "weird loonies", she desperately wants to appeal to a target audience that, on their core, hates her.
It's just sad.
I agree. But I don’t think her transness is what motivates her to be conservative - if she was born as a cis woman I would predict she would be nearly as transphobic as Lauren. I think Blair is as conservative as she possibly can be without completely erasing herself. It’s not just to be as palatable and pandering as possible to bigots, but she literally pushes transphobia as far as it can possibly be pushed without being closeted - like she can say transphobic things to trans kids because she’s not a trans kid, and she can say transphobic things about non-binary people because she’s not non-binary, but she can’t be fully against the legal right to transition as an adult because she would have to cease her existence as a passing woman.
For any conservative idiots reading this: At least y’all can see that being trans is not a choice. It’s so not a choice that a conservative like Blair can’t even choose to be cisgender, despite that it would make her life far easier to ‘just not be trans’ in the conservative space. She literally has to allow people from her own political party to say dehumanizing, violent things to get by.
we on /lgbt/ hate her too 🤷🏼♀️
Very relatable as a blk person. Candace and Kanye do the same thing

@@hyacinth1320 I'd feel sorry for her if she wasn't constantly punching those with less power than her. I have no respect for this woman.
that's because she is one of them.
Blaire reminds me so much of myself when I first started transitioning. I was in highschool at the time and actually believed if I tried to make myself “one of the good ones.” Like tolerating things like people purposely misgendering me, being made the butt of jokes, sometimes even putting down other people in the lgbt community, it would make things easier for me in the long run of life. Not only did that make me miserable, but it didn’t even work.
Thankfully, I got to grow out of that toxic mindset with maturity and didn’t have to stick to those beliefs due to my entire career being tied to it.
@@angell8632 I'm glad you experienced personal growth like that.
When you try to convince someone who disagrees with your very existence that you're "one of the good ones," you're already inadvertently accepting their bigoted rhetoric. To try to mold yourself to to please the sensibilities of those who hate you is to succumb to their hatred and let them have dominance over you. The right response to this is not "you're wrong about me," but rather "you're wrong."
Imagine being so right wing that it makes Blaire look left wing by comparison.

Yeah, hearing her try to defend her right to be a trans person to other conservatives always gives me knots in my stomach. It reminds me of when I was an ultra-conservative kid realizing that no matter what I did, I was never going to be embraced by the conservative community around me because I'm gay. Eventually, I did a complete 180° turn on my politics, but it made me feel really terrible at the time.

I kind of appreciate the "mask off" hatred of trans people on display. It shows that there is no point in trying to concede anything to bigots, because their goal is to completely remove trans people from public life even if that means people dying. You don't make peace with that kind of hate. You stand in defiance of it and you survive it.

@@coletrain546 And they will tell you diversity and multi"cult"urism is "codeword" for anti-white. Or they will mock you with "diversity is our strength." It seems they are utterly incapable of seeing that all things can exist in a space together. No one's gonna get "cooties" if you live and work in the same space as someone else. I'm not anti white, anti black, anti Latino...anti-Asian...Anti- (insert race here) anyone, really. That's stupid. I mean, I can be a lil' nihilistic, but that's a completely different topic, mostly stemming from how humanity treats itself. XD
It's more along the lines of people thinking their rights will evaporate if say women or LGBT have basic human rights. It's some weird tug of war thing. They literally live in a black and white world. When I hear the term "anti-racist = anti-white", I feel the people who say that are just tragically saying more than they mean to, and it doesn't help them in any way. To me, it's as if they are literally saying that the natural default for white is racist-mode, and to be against racism is to be against white (them)...which is racist...which true racists will either deny or proudly embrace given the circumstances. And not only that, they are completely convinced everyone else is just like them (racist), but to be against racism is to be against them (white)...specifically. Excuse me, but that "logic" never fails to melt my brain.
And it's really baffling that if you are pro-everyone, and just want to live in peace, you are this "anti white" and wish to kill all white people in some any-day-now "race war". So naturally, with this mindset, they will go on full balls to the walls warrior mode and will get you (anyone who's against them) before you get them. Like, wut? Where in the actual eff did that come from? XD
It tells me more that people like that don't see themselves as part of the human collective. They see themselves in some elite class above the rest of humanity, hence the "supremacy." And it's not just white people, I've seen that same stupidity from just about every human group under the sun, and they all have their own equally stupid justifications. Too much of the Stupid KoolAid will do that.
The first two sentences of Lauren shocked me like oh my god. If I was Blaire I would instantly think this is a mistake, what am I doing with my life hanging out and associating myself with these people?
Degeneracy? Gateway to pedophilia? I‘m at 2:23 and already had to pause. Damn wtf.
These phrases like "natural law" and "degenerate" are such anti-science, anti-humanist nonsense
It smells nazi dog whistle
People like Blaire White exist in nature (in this physical world) therefore it's natural
It's such a stupid argument
There are actual good arguments for natural law theory, such as that of Finnis, which don't rely solely on believing religion to be the basis just because, advocating for a set of basic moral principals almost all humans share due to our functional needs. But absolutely, hella conservatives tend to use these phrases with no legitimate thought or reasoning put into it besides "because that's how God made it," deciding to ignore literally all aspects of "nature" that go against what they're claiming.
"Degenerate" just means "anything I'm not used to and are therefore uncomfortable with". These people are just so painfully transparent, they think like toddlers with neglectful parents.
right?? who even says the phrase degenerate in a non-ironic setting:D
You know a "debate" is bad when the most reasonable sounding person involved is Karlyn Borysenko lmao
Where is the empathy in these people? The compassion? The open mindedness? The humility?
They have none. That should be obvious
People of personality types tend to flock together.
It should be of NO surprise that these kinds of people infest the CONSERVative organizations. It's worldwide too. Drop the party names and labels for once, and look at the words, actions, minds, spirits, goals...basically, the PERSONALITIES of these people.
They're basically running off the same exact same hardware. And if it's one thing people like this lack, it's compassion...also true empathy, not that self-labeling "empathyfullness" they sometimes like to paint themselves with. These people just don't got it, you can't "grow" a conscience, especially if you see it as weak, or virtue signalling, and I can guarantee you if you could scan all of their brains under an MRI, the little space that lights up for empathy is just door-nail dead in over 90% of them. So, now that we know just who and what these people are, all we can really do is just keep an eye on them, never underestimate them, and make strides to be sure they don't rise to a place of power so they can wreck their havoc on their targets ever again, and get to work on their hierarchical society that they crave. Because if given the opportunity, they sure as heck will. That is a 100% guarantee.
@@ARedMagicMarker "Because if given the opportunity, they sure as heck will. That is a 100% guarantee." That's my biggest problem with the Democratic party. They consistently underestimate conservatives. It's like they can't conceive of a group of people taking conservatism to it's ultimate conclusion even though cons are upfront about it and there are examples of their end goals throughout history. So Dems never put up the fight that they need to, therefore crazy conservatives gain more ground and have sway over our legal system and a sizable chunk of the senate although they represent a smaller portion of the U.S. as a whole. Dems are always bringing speeches to gun fights hoping to appeal to the better natures of conservatives, all the while completely unaware that they don't have better natures- it's all reptile brain and tribalism between their ears.
Their credence to these disgusting ideas seem to have bled out much of their humanity
The irony of them worshiping "Jesus" - the guy who is meant to be love embodied. Honestly, it's like they haven't realized they are, in fact, Satanists (the non-ironic kind).

@@Trillykins Good point, your comment just caught me a little off guard. Now that I think about it Im not that surprised really
I've seen a lot of commentary wincing at the terrible things Blaire allowed to be said about herself without comment. And people have asked how she can align herself with people who clearly want to hurt her. The answer is simple:
She's a conservative.
There are many dimensions of conservatism, many different forms that conservatism can take. Blaire White is exactly like the other two in kind, but not in *degree.* And she knows that. She's there *because* she is like them.
She doesn't hate herself; she hates all non-conservative trans people who refuse to "police" other trans people. She hates trans people who haven't put forth the effort (aka: money) to be trans like she did. She hates trans children because being trans is supposed to take a lot of work to figure out, and if a child can figure it out, then that means it isn't that hard.
The only difference between herself and Lauren Witsky is that Lauren removes all of the qualifiers. She doesn't hate "trans people who ..."; she just hates "trans people".
Blaire White's political ideology offers her a choice. She can join the side that shares her broad ideology but hates her with a burning passion. Or she can join the side that recognizes her right to be trans but refuses to police other trans people and limit them the way she feels they ought to be limited.
Why do you refer to Blaire White as a woman? He is a man with a wig.
Transgender drugs and surgeries SHOULD be limited!
As should transgender women in cisgender women's spaces and sports competitions!
I'm glad Blaire White is sane enough to realize that!
Too bad she is the only transgender person to do so it seems.
shame that one of the most insightful comments has the shittiest comment section.
@@readysoldier6799 you’re a bit stupid, but that’s alright, everyone grows up sometime
Blaire White does not "hate" anyone who you are saying she hates. She openly states in her videos that she went through a transition and has been in their shoes before. What she does do is protest against people who make transgender-ism a trend, and those who do not treat it as what it is (a mental disorder). I mean that with no disrespect. That is simply what it is. Contrary to what Joel said, she does not focus on trans people in her videos. She exposes pedophiles. Some of which are trans, but those who are are using that as an excuse for their pedophilia. Also, the biggest topic she discusses is how it is wrong for transitions to be forced onto kids. She says openly that even though there are exceptions to children transitioning (meaning sometimes it works out and everyone is happy), there are still handfuls of children who transition young and it ruins their lives because it was an uninformed decision. Therefore, children transitioning shouldn't be allowed due to the risks. She is not an extremist, nor is she bigoted. All of her views are level, and are for the safety of everyone. Respectfully, do your research before making bold assumptions.
I mean they're just outright fascists. They're fascists telling a trans person "we're gonna come for you", and she's saying, "no, don't come for me, I believe some of the same things as you", and they're saying "no, we're gonna come for you." That's how fascism works.
It would be sad if it wasn't her choice.

@@Thrna_1 they never said they agreed, they just appreciated that they didn’t try to hide something so obvious.
I was totally surprised that John Doyle just said it out loud like that, that conservatism is fundamentally about enforcing hierarchy, as opposed to liberal egalitarianism. I think this is a major reason he comes off as the more reasonable one: that's a major premise that works. It follows, then, that the conservatives would see transgender people as "less than" and worthy of suppression/oppression. The counterargument that would have led to a fruitful debate would be a defense of the respective sides' opinion on the correct balance of egalitarianism versus hierarchy. But Blaire couldn't make that argument because she is not, actually, egalitarian or liberal. She values her place in the hierarchy--her whole brand is being not one of *those* kinds of trans person--so she HAS to defend it. She did a terrible debate because she is in an untenable logical posture, whereas the conservatives did better because despite being batshit they have essentially taken their premise to its logical, terrible conclusion.
"I'll do anything you want!"
"Then perish."
Same energy.
i think the reason john doyle is so great at this is that he knows that all off the arguments to not let trans people have rights while maintaining a "we are all for human rights" are bullshit invented by conservatives to seem more liberal, hes a guy who we cant debate because he simply has very different morals that us, which means we have different goals than him, he doesnt prettend he has the same morals as us, hes really honest in saying (not outright saying this frase but sort off meaning it): "im a facist who cares about being in power which is the opposite off what you want so we both fundamentally cant agree on things"
now this isnt me supporting him, i also despise his morals but if were being honest, hes a very honest dude, a bad one but still honest
youre spot on with this

“What about our children?” That question has been a rallying cry for bigotry, misogyny, and patriarchal authoritarianism since I can remember, and I’m old. All the while, child poverty seems most prevalent in red states. I know it is in Texas, as are children who are food insecure. Their concern for the children is only a concern if it costs them no money, and only extends to white, straight, Christians’ children.
I'm kind of sick of people standing up for the children. Why are they the authority on everything? Why can't they represent themselves in debates? We're always hearing about the children's concerns, but never FROM the children. In future debates I wish for children not to be represented some puppet adult, but the foremost child.
It's also weird how they care so much about children, but also hate younger generations and their ideas.
"What about the children" is honestly a pretty common refrain from people on both sides of the aisle when they want to appeal to emotion. Want to ban something? Children. Want to get more funding? Children. Want to paint the other side as monsters? Children.
@@jojobobee8777 Plenty of democrats have been found to be sexual predators too. Its not political leaning, its power and the opportunity to abuse it.
Poverty of all sorts is most prevalent in the red states, for what should be pretty obvious reasons. It's actually pretty sad; if you take a look at the most right-wing parts of the country on any sort of objective level, in terms of quality of life, lifespan, income, infrastructure, etc, they're by and large middle-of-the-road developing nations,ranging between Romania and Brazil. It's gotten to the point that *China* has begun to outsource some of its most environmentally disastrous industries to the South because it's cheaper than doing it somewhere with the rudimentary regulations of India.
The fact that Lauren said that to Blair’s face… I know several transgender women and they are wonderful people who deserve to live their truth, and the fact that another trans woman is not only actively working against that, but is allowing herself to be degraded by the people she’s trying so desperately to impress is nothing short of embarrassing. Brown nosing at its finest
But truth isn't subjective. Trans peoppe can't transition gender and that's just reality. You'll always be cheap recreation that doesn't work properly as the real quality thing. It is what it is
Imagine being Blaire White. Standing in solidarity with people who literally want her to stop existing
Hey, Blaire, if you're watching, you're safe here. You don't need to stomach all of this.
she unironically doesn't wants to have rights, don't she.
@@deadcorpse69 ? where tf did she say/imply that when she has been advocating for lgbt and racial rights
@@sktgiin she criticizes trans people for existing and is like "im not like other trans im one of the good ones" while picking up the crazy extremist sjw trans activist.
she isnt for racial rights either, she doesn't even believe in white privilege or other systemic issues around racism.
@@sktgiin in which way have she been all for "lgbt rights"?
It's astonishing just how pathetic Blaire White is. Here she is just desperately trying to appease people who are being openly hateful towards her.
People watching this sympathized with her though. Obviously transphobic shit is not ok but she just got a lot of brownie points from most everyone across the political spectrum. Could be a massive boost for her.
Because *doing* that - being the "one good one" for talking heads to trot out when it's advantageous to them - is literally her full time job.
I've seen your pfp before. What is it??
@@mkwke215 It's the flag of the International Brigades.
@@robertrulebirtannia oh yes that's right.
"Debate" that's a cool way to describe what happened there, I guess. But also imagine hearing someone state your identity is "a gateway drug to pedophilia" and then not reacting
The "moderator" was literally egging it on in between selling buckets of food. It was a car crash. I think Blair thought it would be a debate and she even got Doyle to agree with her. Nazi barbie instead saw it as a hour long "bully Blair" fest
I think Karlyn's comment to Lauren "Between the two of us, I'm the one whose married with a family" is so interesting. Both Karlyn and Lauren have qualities about them that could be considered anti-conservative. Karlyn has short hair and Lauren is single without any children. If either of them lived in the past, they would probably be discriminated against for these reasons, and yet they both still identify as conservative. It just shows that the idea of conservatism is very nebulous and maybe not worth defending.
"It's not a debate, it's a _focus group_ " - perfectly said.
Blaire: "I just think, I guess, that if you want to advance your agenda of eliminating people like myself you need to, I dunno, maybe hide your antisocial tendencies behind a facade of human decency."
Ball of Simmering Hatred: "Well, by listening to your ideas I guess that makes me somewhat "tolerant" - so I've deviated from my values. My husband is gonna discipline me for that... wish you'd considered that before selfishly choosing to have a platform at this discussion."
Blaire: "They called _me_ tho-"
Ball of Simmering Hatred: "WAS I NOT CLEAR? Stop speaking! I'm in for Hell as it is!"
@Cymaddict , THIS...is underrated...er, PSEUDO-satire. You deserve more Likes.
I’m starting to give more credence to the conspiracy theory that Magda Goebbels and her children faked their own deaths in the Bunker, and set up shop in America.
I’m only half way through the video so I wasn’t sure whether this was the actual dialog in the video or not.
“I absolutely will not vote for a party that treats LGBT people like they are subhuman; I won’t do it” - and yet she voted for the Republicans and is a republican? The mind games conservatives play is always amazing
She's literally gaslighting herself.
Mind games is a bit complementary. Everyone knows conservatives don't have minds. Maybe an empty hamster wheel in a void, or usually red jello. But not so much the "mind" thing.
@@stereo-soulsoundsystem5070 They do have minds, some of them are quite smart. Maybe. I think they're just deeply egotistical, unempathetic and uncurious about things that don't affect them. I haven't met one that wasn't abusive in some way and it makes me deeply sad because it's such a widespread belief system.
@@PlaylistGeneral It doesn't require more than maybe 3 braincells to put together that racism and xenophobia are obviously bad and a good person would try their best to not be those things. But they actively reject or refuse to seek out any data that conflicts with their world view. So maybe some of them can almost think but it's signs of a mindless drone, the patterns of conservatives.
@@stereo-soulsoundsystem5070 i think the issue is that thr less radical ones deny being bigoted in any way and think they're reasonable good people. It's a trap that honestly anyone can get into, the issue with conservatives is they think if they're any of those things then they're immediately bad people. So they shut down any concept which lends credence to the idea. Its much more complicated than them just being mindless drones, otherwise there wouldn't be so many of them.
idk how blair doesnt just straight up cry while trying to defend her right to exist
Idk how Blair didnt just straight up flipped them off and told them to go fuck themselves
@@suezuccati304 how would they keep her around as the token tran and give her validation for telling other trans people to kill themselves if she flips them off
@@suezuccati304 and ruin the grift that puts bread on her table?
She's probably just used to it. Anti-trans rhetoric is so normal to her that she personally repeats some of the milder shit. The fact that she's this willing to accept people who think so little of her, that she apparently agrees enough with them to try to be their ally/shield, it just so... existentially depressing.
Blair doesn’t seek validation from Doyle and what’s her name.
Joel it's so important for you to make videos like this as a straight white guy who's an lgbt ally because you can watch this kind of shit without getting triggered and then make it funny and break it down for us. Thanks for putting a funny pirate guy on the content warning.
I hadn’t seen this kind of perspective, it makes sense and is nice
It is nice to see someone with less of an immediate emotional attachment, makes a good gateway for "apolitical" people that would get turned off by a trans person breaking down in the face of such vile disgusting dehumanization.
It sucks that it's needed because being emotionally invested in your own human rights is seen as "losing the debate".
Blaire White lied about "being the most vocal anti children transitioning person on the internet" is a flat out lie. She has interviewed a trans girl on her channel before who transitioned as a teenager and at the end of the video Blaire says that while she doesn't think kids transitioning is a good idea, sometimes it's absolutely important for a child's mental health. Even her opinion on this isn't as conservative as she portrays here
It's hilarious because she tries to embrace conservative's ideas *but* she IS trans and she can't just escape it. Like managing to transition young is the dream of all trans people, and seeing kids managing to get proper care and being able to avoid all the pain you've suffered is galvanizing, like for any other minority that was mostly defined by their pain, seeing their future members live lives that are free from those negative experiences...so she cannot do anything but ending up supporting it in a way, while saving face with some excuses.
I mean exactly like in this video, she knows she can't detransition for her mental health, and yet she will just avert her eyes and draw an excuse there when asked to face what conservative priciples mean
@@fluffy_tail4365 yeah she doesn't realise that there's bigots in the Republican party that will not accept her due to her being trans. For many transphobia has nothing to do with sometrans people acting cringey and some sjws acting insane, bigots don't like her because she's trans and there's no way you can reson with those people
It is better for trans people to delay puberty and transition early. Blair is lucky that she looks so feminine after transitioning as an adult. She was a pretty boy. Most people aren't they lucky. Its obviously good to wait as long as possible so the child is sure that is what they actually want. But once they've been through puberty they could end up needing lots of feminisation surgeries and will make their life a lot harder in the long run. Hopefully psychologists are good at sorting out the truly trans kids from the non binary or just confused.
Don't practice what you preach.
Honestly, I dunno which is worse: Following your ideology to a T with no exceptions, or loosely use your ideology as a guideline, but really have no values.
thats because Blaire white will literally just say whatever, as long as its making her look better at that specific point in time to the specific people shes talking to. its the grift, baybeee
Like I said before have to feel sorry for Blair, stuck trying to appeal to people who genuinely believe she deserves eternal damnation for her identity.
Except that she's not stuck, of course. She chooses to remain in her niche of selling out other trans people for money.
I don't feel sympathy for her anymore. She made this bed for herself, she can have fun sleeping in it.
@@justaperson98 she's in too deep to simply stop now, unfortunately
@@SlamdogX I’ve yet to feel sympathy. You have to be a certain kind of person to shill for the alternative right. Usually a bad one.
I don't get it, can't this person just choose - I dunno, to do ANYTHING else other than this? Or can't you just stand up, turn off the camera and leave lol. This is self inflicted and if anything we should appreciate someone getting the results of their choices.
Conservatives: Anything moving away from rugged individualism is Socialism!
Also Conservatives: People being gay in their own bedroom affects us all as a society!
Isn't it gay people making it public? Otherwise, how would they know what you do in private?
@@mindlander maybe you should look into the history of the lavender scare
@Stay Away yes they are. I'm pointing out that conservatives don't like the in public, at home, sin all you want lol I'm not defending them, just explaining their ACTUAL bigotry.
@Stay Away He literally didn't watch the fucking video where the guy OPENLY ADMITTED IT, in basically those exact words.
Straight up trying to gaslight us.
@@mindlander Bro… watch the whole video. The guy literally says somewhere around the 20 minute mark of /this/ video that he thinks it’s unacceptable to be gay in private.
Hbomberguy said in a video about flat earthers, “she’s wrong about this but she deserves a better movement then this” and I feel like that fits with Blair. She’s desperately trying to get the approval of her party for her existence, but they won’t. She deserves better, but she’s still so wrong.
Lauren's logic:
"What about the children. We have to think about the children".
But not allowing a child into a loving home bc it's a mom and a mom or a dad and a dad; child abuse; and literal child torture (conversion therapy) is ay ok.
Wow, so caring s/
Her logic is actually completely sound if you assume she sees children as the property of their parents and rhetorical tools for political arguments, rather than young human beings.
@@tylerd8289 you cracked the code!
i mean.... she's a conservative christian. there are parenting books popular in US conservative christian circles that literally say beating your children is mandatory
She doesn't care about the children, most of these conservatives claiming they do don't. They just hate gay people, women having bodily autonomy(abortions), trans people, etc.
Holy SHIT the look in Lauren's eyes every time Blair opens her mouth. That right there is absolute hatred.
Makes you wonder what level of religious extremism these people were raised to become like this. It's utterly terrifying. These are the kinds of people who would justify any- and everything based on their blind loyalty to their cruel, authoritarian god.
It gets scary when you encounter the ones who *aren't* religious, who grew their own hate based on their primordial sense of disgust and unease instead of having their hatred artificially planted there by indoctrination. @@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139
@@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139you don't have to be religious to have this kind of hatred in you. Religion exists because of the hatred in people not the other way around.
