Transcript [00:00] Why? Why is it that leftists, [00:03] progressives, atheist progressives, why [00:07] do they support Hamas? Why do they [00:09] support jihadists? You know, the whole [00:10] Red Green Alliance things. A lot of [00:12] people talk about this these days. I've [00:14] talked about it. I've made videos about [00:15] it. Back in December of 2023, just a [00:19] couple of months after October 7th, I [00:21] attended Turning Point USA's America [00:24] Fest in Phoenix, Arizona, and Dennis [00:26] Prager spoke and he spoke about this [00:29] phenomenon of progressive leftists who [00:32] support kamas. It's really uh it's quite [00:35] a remarkable speech. So here, have a [00:38] >> it's very inspiring to see you all here. [00:42] So I debated a great deal what I would [00:45] say to you for 22 minutes. Do I cheer [00:49] you up? Do I motivate you? These were [00:53] very real questions that I confronted [00:57] and I thought the best thing I can do is [00:59] explain the current era in which you [01:03] live and I live [01:06] and that's the best service I could [01:09] provide in these minutes to you. [01:13] because there's no uh there's no way of [01:16] denying this is the darkest era in [01:19] American history outside of the Civil [01:21] War. [01:23] And once the Civil War was over, while [01:25] there were terrible residues [01:28] of antilack legislation in the South, [01:31] etc. Nevertheless, [01:34] the country ultimately united, [01:37] but the country has never been as [01:39] disunited as it is today. [01:42] We live in different moral universes. [01:46] So I'd like to ask you a question and [01:49] answer it. [01:52] If you know that someone says men give [01:56] birth [01:58] or men menstruate, [02:03] every single person in this auditorium, [02:07] every single American would know their [02:10] position on kamas. [02:14] Now, isn't that interesting? [02:16] Now, to be a little direct, what the [02:20] hell [02:22] [cheering] [02:23] does [02:25] a man giving birth have to do with being [02:30] pro- kamas? [02:31] So, I have an answer because you know [02:35] that that is true. If a person says men [02:38] give birth, they will be pro- kamas and [02:41] anti-Israel. [02:42] They're not related issues. So why is [02:45] that the case? And here is the answer. [02:48] And I will give you an a whole series of [02:50] examples. [02:53] The left and I always distinguish left [02:56] and liberal. Liberals vote for the left. [02:58] That is the tragedy of America in a [03:00] nutshell. But liberalism is not leftism. [03:04] And so I want to make that clear. But [03:07] the left or the progressive, [03:09] their moral compass is not only broken [03:14] because a broken moral compass or a [03:17] broken compass [03:19] like a broken clock is right twice a [03:22] day. But they're not right twice a day. [03:25] They're never right because their [03:28] compass is set for north to always show [03:32] south and for east to always show west. [03:37] It is deliberately broken. [03:40] So I will give you a whole host of [03:42] examples to give you an idea of what the [03:45] broken moral compass is about. [03:50] Women who object to men [03:53] who say they are women competing in [03:56] women's sports even in weightlifting. [04:00] These are called haters. Do you [04:03] understand how that is north, south, [04:06] east west? [04:10] The idea that a a a man who says he is a [04:13] woman can compete in women's sports is a [04:18] broken deliberately broken moral [04:21] compass. And that is an example. [04:25] [laughter] [04:27] Again, if you say that men can compete [04:31] in women's sports if they say they're [04:33] women, you are overwhelmingly likely to [04:36] be pro- kamas. [04:39] Number two, [04:42] adults who object to schools taking [04:45] five-year-olds to drag queen [04:47] performances are declared haters. The [04:51] teachers who take children to drag queen [04:53] events are enlightened. [clears throat] [04:56] The idea that you would take a [04:59] five-year-old sixyear-old [05:01] sevenyear-old child to a drag queen [05:03] event, irrespective of what you think of [05:06] drag queens, you may think they are the [05:08] greatest thing existing, but a child [05:12] doesn't belong there. [05:18] How about again? If you believe that a [05:22] child should be exposed to drag queen [05:25] story hours, you're overwhelmingly [05:28] likely to be pro- kamas. [05:32] Number three, [05:34] if you believe that all black [05:37] dormitories on college campuses [05:40] are good for blacks and good for America [05:45] and good for the value system of this [05:48] country, you are overwhelmingly likely [05:51] to believe that kamas is right and [05:53] Israel is wrong. [05:55] >> An all black dormatory is racism. pure [06:00] undiluted racism. [06:09] There are only two groups in America who [06:12] believe in all black dormitories and all [06:15] black graduations. [06:17] Progressives/left [06:20] and the Ku Klux Clan. [06:27] >> [laughter] [06:30] >> If you believe that open borders are [06:34] moral [06:35] and that those who want closed borders, [06:38] even when they support largecale legal [06:41] immigration [06:43] are xenophobes, [06:46] people who oppose open borders. There's [06:49] again overwhelmingly likely your compass [06:52] is so broken you believe Hamas is the is [06:57] the hero and Israel is the villain in [07:00] the Middle East. It all goes together. [07:05] A country has to have borders just like [07:08] a house has borders. I am very in favor, [07:12] most conservatives are, of largecale [07:15] legal immigration, [07:17] but to have unregulated borders. And the [07:20] the you do you understand? I mean, I I [07:23] look at this and I wonder, do they ever [07:25] ask themselves, do do the people on the [07:28] left ever confront their own value [07:31] system? We are for open borders, but if [07:34] you bring them into our sanctuary [07:36] cities, we cry. Right. New York City is [07:41] a sanctuary city. But don't you dare [07:44] bring any of the people that we want to [07:46] give sanctuary to into our city. [07:50] You know who believe that that makes [07:52] sense? Professors. [07:56] >> This is the state of our universities. [07:58] By the way, there is a silver lining in [08:02] in the obscene testimony of three IV [08:06] League or two Ivy League and MIT [08:09] presidents who couldn't say that [08:11] advocating genocide against Jews is hate [08:15] speech or or or is harassment. It's they [08:18] didn't even ask hate speech. The bright [08:20] side is finally finally what I have [08:24] warned all of my life since I was at [08:27] Colombia in the 1970s [08:30] that the university is a moral wasteland [08:34] is becoming clear to more Americans. [08:37] This is the one silver lining. [08:47] If you apply for a job at TPUSA, I [08:50] haven't reviewed this with Charlie, but [08:51] I think this is true. I know it's true [08:53] for PragerU, [08:56] it it is not only not [09:00] held against you if you didn't go to [09:02] college, we tend to think more highly of [09:05] you if you didn't go to college. [09:10] [cheering and applause] [09:17] The number of young people who go to [09:19] college, [09:21] a decent, even happy person and come out [09:26] angry, [09:27] ungrateful, bitter people is very large. [09:32] As I have said often on my radio show, [09:36] at an American university, you get a BA [09:39] in ingratitude, [09:41] you get a master's in ingratitude, and [09:44] you get a PhD [09:53] in in gratitude. And I've written a book [09:55] on happiness. It's a major theme in my [09:58] work. And let me tell you something. [10:02] There is no happy ingrate. It is not [10:06] possible to be a happy or good human [10:09] being if you're not grateful. The [10:13] ingrate is the lowest form of humanity. [10:18] And ingratitude is the essence of the [10:21] left. They are all ingrates and they [10:25] wish to create more ingrates. You have [10:28] grown up in the freest, most [10:31] opportunitygiving country ever made in [10:34] the history of the world. And you loathe [10:36] it. You are despicable for that [10:39] loathing. [10:41] [laughter] [10:43] It is sick. It is sick. [10:48] America is systemically racist. If you [10:50] believe that, you're also probably pro- [10:53] kamas. [10:54] Systemically racist. [10:57] How many college students are taught [10:59] that 4 million blacks have moved to the [11:01] United States through legal immigration? [11:04] 4 million in the last few decades from [11:07] the Caribbean and Africa. So, here's a [11:10] question that should be posed. Are these [11:13] people stupid? [11:17] I'm just curious. Would you move to a [11:20] country that you knew hated you because [11:22] of your color or race or religion? Of [11:25] course not. Did any Jews move to Germany [11:28] in the 1930s? The question is absurd. Of [11:32] course, no Jews moved to Germany because [11:34] it was systemically anti-semitic. [11:38] >> Those 4 million blacks and there would [11:40] be 40 million blacks if we open the [11:42] borders completely. That's how many [11:44] would want to move here for good reason. [11:46] Because there's no country in the world [11:48] better for a black or a white or a [11:51] Hispanic or an Arab or a Muslim or a Jew [11:53] to live in. [12:03] Really, I I I I don't understand why [12:06] there aren't leftists, black leftists [12:08] and white leftists at at Kennedy airport [12:12] and any black coming in from Africa and [12:14] they say, "Hey, don't don't be an idiot. [12:16] Go back. Go back. We're systemically [12:18] racist. We hate you." [12:21] And then this black African will look at [12:23] this person and say, "Are you out of [12:24] your mind?" [12:25] >> Yeah. [12:26] >> Do you know that in Africa we know how [12:28] wonderful America is? You don't know cuz [12:31] you went to an American university. [12:42] If you believe that voter ID is racist, [12:46] you probably support Hamas. [12:50] Do you know that virtually every [12:51] democracy on earth has voter ID? [12:56] Wh why how on earth could that possibly [12:59] be racist? [13:02] Sir, ma'am, before you vote, we'd like [13:05] to make sure that you are the person on [13:07] this list. Why? Why? Why is that bad? [13:12] Why is that wrong? Why is that racist? [13:14] It's racist to say it's racist. Because [13:18] the implication is it's too hard for a [13:21] black to figure out how to get an ID. [13:24] >> Ammy Horowitz did a did a uh [13:28] Ammy Horowitz who does these terrific [13:30] videos of man on the street type videos. [13:33] He went to Harlem in in Manhattan and he [13:35] asked blacks in the street said you do [13:38] do you know how to get an ID? And they [13:41] looked at him like he was an idiot. [13:44] [laughter] No, it's a you have to see [13:46] it. It's it's mindboggling to watch. [13:48] They didn't know what he was talking [13:50] about. They even said, "Yeah, the DMV, [13:52] I'll give you the address." [laughter] [13:59] If you believe [14:01] that fewer policemen make safer cities, [14:06] you probably support Hamas. [14:11] Do you do you understand? It's very [14:13] important that my point be clear. The [14:16] broken moral compass of the left covers [14:20] all of these arenas. [14:23] Supporting Hamas is only the latest and [14:26] most grotesque example of the morally [14:29] sick world of the left. [14:32] I mean to say this to say that it's a [14:35] safer city with fewer policemen. Do you [14:38] understand how how what what sort of of [14:41] of [14:44] perverse form of thought that that that [14:48] emanates from? How can you come up with [14:50] such an idea? Fewer cops [14:54] means more crime, not less crime. Isn't [14:57] that obvious in Portland and San [14:59] Francisco and Chicago and Philadelphia? [15:02] I mean, isn't it obvious [15:09] this list that I'm offering you was just [15:11] a partial list, but do you realize this [15:14] is what is taught? This this the these [15:18] this these perversions of reality, these [15:20] are taught at college as if they are [15:23] truths. [15:24] >> All right. Um [15:27] I think that was an amazing speech. I [15:29] was in the room at the time. It was very [15:30] uh I found it very powerful. He goes on [15:33] for a few more minutes on some other [15:34] topics. [15:36] But you know, he he didn't actually [15:38] answer the question why. He just talked [15:41] about how perverse it is and how all of [15:43] these seemingly unrelated issues all go [15:46] together. But he didn't really answer [15:47] the question why do they support Hamas? [15:50] And I but I think he came close to [15:52] answering it when he talked about [15:54] ingratitude. [15:56] You know, people who are progressives on [15:59] the left, they tend to reject what is [16:02] old. They reject tradition. They reject [16:06] faith, the faith of their ancestors. [16:08] They reject the value system that [16:10] bequeathed the society we have today. [16:12] They view it as evil. That's all [16:14] ingratitude. And that ingratitude, so [16:18] ingratitude turns into a hatred of [16:20] tradition. And it turns into a hatred of [16:23] everything that represents tradition. [16:26] And if you reject tradition and you [16:28] reject history, you're going to look at [16:30] Israel and you're not going to see an [16:32] ancient nation, the Jewish people, [16:35] returning to their land after thousands [16:36] of years of exile to an and where no one [16:41] else had ever had a local sovereign [16:45] nation. And instead, they're going to [16:47] start history 10 minutes ago. and [16:50] they're going to see the Jews as [16:51] colonizers and see the Arabs who are [16:54] there as the local natives even though [16:56] they never were a nation there and there [16:58] and most of them weren't even there. The [17:00] place was mostly empty until the late [17:02] 1800s. So he came close to answering it [17:05] and maybe that doesn't fully answer the [17:07] question, but it certainly is [17:09] remarkable, you know, when you have [17:11] people whose opinions on unrelated [17:13] issues seem to line up together. And [17:15] here what he's pointing to is that once [17:17] people's moral compass is broken, [17:21] it covers everything. So, I hope you [17:23] found that interesting.
