for us to stand up, speak out, get involved, and

16
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:55.519
let's be intentional. So possibly one of the biggest blessings

17
00:01:55.599 --> 00:02:00.040
from the twenty twenty lockdowns of COVID was that the

18
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:05.480
children were having to go to school on remote learning.

19
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:10.039
That's when the parents really seemed to see what the

20
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:14.719
system had been teaching them. They weren't learning reading, writing,

21
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:19.840
and arithmetic, or how to be free thinking, responsible adults.

22
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:26.879
Oh no, no, no, they were being indoctrinated with woke propaganda,

23
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:31.039
learning they were an oppressor or a victim. They were

24
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:35.360
learning queer theory one oh one, or that they should

25
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:41.439
maybe question their gender identity. The woke mind virus was

26
00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:46.159
not just k through twelve. As the light was exposing

27
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:52.800
that the American universities were pushing diversity, equity and inclusion,

28
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:57.199
we came face to face with the reality that our

29
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:05.319
children were infused with extreamist ideologies, anti Semitism, and Marxism.

30
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:09.120
So when we began to see the rise of violent

31
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:13.800
riots across our college campuses in twenty twenty three, in

32
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:17.520
twenty twenty four, it was no surprise to learn that

33
00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:26.199
two hundred of our American colleges and universities illegally withheld

34
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:36.319
information on approximately thirteen billion in undocumented contributions from foreign governments,

35
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:42.520
many of which were authoritarian. So who was influencing our children?

36
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:51.280
This information came through an organization called Network Contagion Research Institute.

37
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.919
They released their findings in twenty twenty three, and it

38
00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:00.680
was focused on concealed foreign funding of US higher education.

39
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:06.280
It's pretty sad to think about truly. Now the whole

40
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:11.280
entire Department of Education seems to be full of activists.

41
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:17.000
From administrators to your professors to the teachers. They're more

42
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:23.040
interested in creating social justice warriors who need a safe

43
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:28.639
space rather than building up a bright and energetic mind

44
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:33.199
of a future leader. Is it any wonder that the

45
00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:38.079
recent Epoch Times poll showed that out of thirty one

46
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:43.639
thousand people that were pulled, eighty five percent supported ending

47
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:48.160
the Department of Education. Well, today we are going to

48
00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:51.759
discuss woke education and just do a little bit of

49
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:55.199
chit chatting with Anna Hibbs. She is the host of

50
00:04:55.519 --> 00:05:00.160
Let's Talk Podcasts. So welcome Anna. Thanks for being on

51
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:01.639
the show with us today.

52
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:04.600
Yes, thank you for having me. Thank you. I appreciate

53
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:08.160
your offer to have me on. Yeah, well, it is.

54
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:11.439
An honor to have you on. I love being able

55
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:16.879
to talk to other podcasters and especially about education, and uh,

56
00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:19.920
you know, I don't want to point out any differences here,

57
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.079
but but you're you're in the younger generation, right, you

58
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:28.399
have a new baby, right, I mean, yes, you're you're

59
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:32.480
like right in that niche. So I am excited to

60
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:36.160
hear your thoughts and your insights and and anything that

61
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:39.720
you want to lay upon my brain. I'm hoping to it.

62
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:43.560
Thank you. Yeah, I you know, I have a little

63
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.600
bit of a different perspective when it comes to education.

64
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:50.399
I was homeschooled growing up, but a lot of my

65
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.439
friends went to public school. And then later in life,

66
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:55.920
when I kind of got into high school, a lot

67
00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:58.759
of the people that I did act like local activities

68
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.920
with also went to public school, and so I kind

69
00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:04.240
of started to see a little bit. You know, how

70
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.079
do you know the public school kids dunt, dun, dun.

71
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:10.120
You know, how do they you know, do school? Like,

72
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:13.240
how what are they learning? And I realized, you know,

73
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.079
a lot of the things that I'm learning about, you know,

74
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:20.720
American history or just simple you know, math or you

75
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:24.279
know language arts. You know, when I was in middle school,

76
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:27.560
I was reading at like a college level because I

77
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:29.680
had all of that time to sit and read, or

78
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:32.120
I had the time to study myself. And when I

79
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:34.480
kind of got into high school and I started meeting

80
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:36.800
these other high schoolers who were going to public school,

81
00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:40.160
I started to realize, you know, okay, wow, you guys

82
00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:43.160
are not as advanced as you would think. You know,

83
00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:46.120
for the longest time, it was homeschoolers were the ones

84
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.680
that had the disadvantage because you know, we weren't going

85
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.279
to school with teachers and everything else. And then I

86
00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:53.720
was kind of starting to see that, you know, their

87
00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:57.160
focus became less and less and less on you know,

88
00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:00.920
the basics of learning and more so about you know,

89
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:03.920
how can we make this about the things that are

90
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:06.800
happening in in the culture. So that's a little bit

91
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:09.360
about about kind of where I stand as far as

92
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:10.639
public school goes.

93
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:16.560
Yeah, well, just to have full transparency. One, I don't

94
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:24.279
have children, but but two, I was raised in Catholic schools, uh,

95
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:28.600
Catholic education. I was raised on the East Coast, and

96
00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:32.639
so everybody there went to you know, Catholic schools or

97
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:38.360
you know, some sort of you know, parochial education, and

98
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:42.360
so when I came to Oklahoma, I was way more

99
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:46.480
ahead of the kids who were in public education.

100
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:47.279
You know.

101
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:51.360
So that was always really interesting to me, you know,

102
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:56.399
and uh, you know, kind of a different perspective there.

103
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:59.839
But I wanted to kind of see what you think

104
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:05.000
because not having children, and you know, spending all of

105
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:08.079
my years really kind of focused on the healthcare industry

106
00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:10.399
as a nurse, and you know, doing all that, I

107
00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:14.360
really didn't think about what was going on in our

108
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:20.639
education department, and I really don't think that I recognized

109
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:26.600
what was happening until the twenty twenty event occurred. And

110
00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:31.439
you know, I really remember kind of first thinking about

111
00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:36.279
hearing the word critical race theory. And I believe that

112
00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:38.759
was in twenty twenty because I was with a couple

113
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:41.759
friends of mine. They had kids in school, and they

114
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.240
kept talking about social emotional learning, and I was like,

115
00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:47.759
social emotional learning, what is that? I don't know what

116
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:50.960
that is, And so I started looking it up and

117
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:58.240
I came across the Collaborative for Academic Social and Emotional

118
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:02.240
Learning or CASTLE, and I didn't know what they were either, Anna,

119
00:09:02.399 --> 00:09:06.240
So I looked them up and I was shocked. I

120
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:10.399
really was, you know, I mean, you know, I'm not anymore.

121
00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:14.120
But when I first saw they were really funded by

122
00:09:14.559 --> 00:09:19.720
Bill and Melinda Gates, the chan Zuckerberg Initiative. They were

123
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:25.120
funded by a group called Novo Foundation, and they did

124
00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:29.240
a lot of funding also from Planned Parenthood and Black

125
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:32.639
Lives Matter, and so I was like, what in the world.

126
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:36.399
And I was kind of like digging in, you know,

127
00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.559
It's like they they kind of like looking at their website,

128
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:42.639
they went back to like twenty eleven and they started

129
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:47.399
this initiative with these twenty they called them large complex

130
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:51.840
school districts. They focused on like one point seven million students,

131
00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:56.960
and Oklahoma happened to be one of theirs, the Tulsa District,

132
00:09:57.039 --> 00:10:00.639
And so that kind of perked up my ears little bit.

133
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:05.200
But you know, I really think that the thing that

134
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:08.360
got me the most, the thing that really turned my

135
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:13.679
head about education, was when I started looking at and

136
00:10:14.039 --> 00:10:15.879
they had it on their website. I don't know if

137
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:21.480
it's still there, but Castle in twenty twenty they changed

138
00:10:21.960 --> 00:10:27.720
their definition of social emotional learning and they put in

139
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:35.639
transformative social emotional learning, and they adjusted their core competencies

140
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:38.480
and they started teaching through them. I mean, they were

141
00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:42.320
very transparent about it. They started teaching through the lens

142
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:49.039
of racial and equity. They started using words like self

143
00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:55.320
awareness through social identities, and then they started talking about

144
00:10:55.360 --> 00:11:01.200
things like self management and regulating emotional behavior. And then

145
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:08.159
they actually came out and said behaviors to promote social

146
00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:14.440
emotional outcomes and social justice warriors. I mean, that was

147
00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:19.519
kind of my movie where when I didn't have that

148
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.000
when I was in school, did I mean, I reading writing,

149
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:28.200
arithmetic a pe which I hated yes, yes, recess Tommy,

150
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:30.799
were all like, you try doing homeschool pee.

151
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:33.240
You're only doing PE with your two other siblings or

152
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:37.320
whatever siblings you have, Okay, trying home school PE.

153
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:44.879
I mean being a homeschool a person who went through homeschooling.

154
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:47.200
I didn't want to call you a homeschool child. I

155
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:51.960
almost went there homeschool Okay, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, just

160
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.879
Yes, and you should because you know, I mean, those

161
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:07.799
are the kids who really are turning out to be

162
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:12.120
the ones who are well adjusted, able to handle society

163
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:17.559
and really have those core values. But did you know

164
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:20.559
this about the public schools? I mean kind of like,

165
00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:24.960
did you kind of like understand that's what was happening

166
00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:28.679
because you were in homeschooling. Did your parents exposure to

167
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:30.600
any of that? So?

168
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:34.679
I think the first time that I really realized that

169
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:38.879
public schools were kind of taking a different turn was

170
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.799
I was I actually had a boyfriend who was in

171
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:44.480
public school, who I'd met kind of through theater here

172
00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:48.200
in Des Moines, Iowa. And you know, he was doing

173
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:51.360
some homework. I was doing some homework, which people are

174
00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.279
always like, homework, aren't you homeschooled? Anyways, the joke is old,

175
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:57.399
but I was doing some homework. I was. I was,

176
00:12:57.559 --> 00:13:01.720
and you know, I realized, you know, typical grading, you know,

177
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:03.639
you usually get like a sixty out of one hundred

178
00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:05.240
or one hundred out of one hundred, or an A

179
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:07.720
or a B. And I'm looking over at his paper

180
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:11.399
and I'm like, what are all these like extra words

181
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:14.639
that I'm seeing. And he was like, well, my school,

182
00:13:14.840 --> 00:13:17.960
you know, has changed their grading. We don't get actual

183
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:20.039
grades anymore. It's not an A or a B or

184
00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:23.320
a sixty out of one hundred. It's keep at it.

185
00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:27.679
It's great job, it's try better next time. And he

186
00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:30.399
was in high school. We were seniors in high school

187
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:32.360
at the time when I was dating him. This isn't

188
00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:36.240
an elementary school where it's like, oh, buddy, you know, hey, buddy,

189
00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:36.840
keep at it.

190
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:38.320
He was almost.

191
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:41.159
Eighteen years old being told, you know, if he had

192
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.840
a bad grade on a test, keep at it, buddy.

193
00:13:44.159 --> 00:13:46.919
And that's when I'm starting to realize, like, why are

194
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:50.000
we treating this so soft. These people are about to

195
00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:53.679
go out into the world and and face a lot

196
00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:56.120
of different things, with a lot of different opinions, and

197
00:13:56.159 --> 00:13:59.000
so I would say that's probably the first time where

198
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:02.519
I really realized, you know, things, different things were happening,

199
00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:05.600
but the same thing happened with me, which was in

200
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:08.519
twenty twenty when everything kind of hit the fan, and

201
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:13.840
especially because of the Libs of TikTok account on X

202
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:17.559
that was to me as I started to see this stuff,

203
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:22.120
I truly started realizing, like, oh, because we are made

204
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:24.679
to be the crazy people. You know, Oh, that was

205
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:28.639
one classroom that had one rainbow flag. You guys need

206
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.440
to calm down. Or that was one classroom you know

207
00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:35.120
that did this one thing. Everybody chill out. And you know,

208
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:38.759
Libs of TikTok was producing like ten plus videos a

209
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:42.360
day of classrooms all over you know, the country, and

210
00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:44.799
some of them were as little as preschoolers. I don't

211
00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:47.279
know if you remember this. It was and I don't

212
00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:49.600
remember the specifics, but it was. I think it was

213
00:14:49.679 --> 00:14:53.720
during Black History Month a middle school. You know, all

214
00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.919
of the white kids were men made to like sit

215
00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:58.759
in the corner and they were not allowed to do

216
00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:02.000
playtime at you know, the black kids were playing in

217
00:15:02.039 --> 00:15:04.080
the middle and doing all this stuff because they needed

218
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:07.519
to recognize their white privilege during this month and let

219
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.720
the black children play. And Lives of TikTok posted that

220
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:13.720
video and I'll never forget it because obviously, you know,

221
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:15.279
there are things here and there, but that was the

222
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:19.159
one where I was like, Okay, making kids feel bad

223
00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:22.279
because their skin is different than others is not what

224
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.080
public schools are set out to do, you know, and

225
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:28.960
it's it That's when I realized, you guys are going

226
00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:32.440
against your own narrative. Everybody's supposed to be welcome unless

227
00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:34.200
you're the person that we don't want to be welcome

228
00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:37.919
at that case and point. And so that those two things,

229
00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:40.440
my boyfriend and then those kinds of videos were kind

230
00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:43.279
of my way of seeing what was happening. And then

231
00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:46.080
just doing theater here locally, Like I said, I had

232
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:49.919
a lot of interaction with public school kids. You know,

233
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:53.159
a lot of homeschoolers didn't do the local theater because

234
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:57.759
it was very liberal, very you know, politically intense, and

235
00:15:57.919 --> 00:15:59.919
when I had first started, it wasn't really like that.

236
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:02.240
And then, of course, because of overtime it just grew

237
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:05.320
and grew and grew, and in that setting, you know,

238
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:08.480
everybody feels a little bit more comfortable to share. And

239
00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:11.639
I'll never forget coming out of after a rehearsal, this

240
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:13.799
girl stood up on the stage and she's like, I

241
00:16:13.840 --> 00:16:16.000
need everybody to sit down. I need to make an announcement.

242
00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:18.320
And she announced to us that she was, now, you know,

243
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:21.639
a boy, and we all needed to you know, coincide

244
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:25.799
with that, and everybody was clapping. And it's just situations

245
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:29.399
like that that really made me realize, you know, I

246
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.240
was raised differently. I at that point, I was like,

247
00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:35.360
I will will be raising my children differently one day,

248
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:39.919
and just I can't be in this environment anymore. I

249
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:43.240
think that that's something that you know, and I will

250
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:46.440
ruffle some feathers by saying this, that you know, when

251
00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:48.919
you're sending your kids to public school, it's not the

252
00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:51.879
same anymore. You know, they're not going to be these

253
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.840
amazing warriors for Christ when they're in one. You can't

254
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:00.600
because like I absolutely drowned when I was in that situation.

255
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:03.120
I wasn't prepared. And it's also a lot to put

256
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:05.519
on a child. I was fourteen years old doing that

257
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:08.880
kind of stuff. You know, I'm not spiritually you know,

258
00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:13.160
ready or just emotionally ready to take on that that

259
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:15.759
kind of battle. And so when you're sending your kids

260
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.200
to a public school situation like that where you can't

261
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:20.480
be there, you know, twenty four to seven with them

262
00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:23.440
to encourage them and maybe they're not with other students,

263
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:25.680
you're basically sending them to drown.

264
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:31.000
Yeah, right on, No, totally. And you know when you

265
00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:34.400
were talking about your boyfriend that that's not who you married, wasn't.

266
00:17:34.519 --> 00:17:37.920
No, oh no, that's not what I meant where you were.

267
00:17:38.200 --> 00:17:40.119
You know, when you were talking about your boyfriend, he

268
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:42.680
was getting the you know, right on at a boy

269
00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:47.640
keep going. It reminded me of, you know, sort of

270
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:53.640
the the participation Trophy generation where you know, everybody gets

271
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:58.640
a gold star, everybody's good, you know, everybody gets a win.

272
00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:03.519
And then I I saw this the other day where

273
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:08.000
I guess there is a young lady. Her name is

274
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:15.240
Alicia Ortez. She's nineteen years old, and she alleges that

275
00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:20.200
she cannot read or write. She says she graduated with

276
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:26.759
honors from Hartford Public High School in twenty twenty four,

277
00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:32.519
and now she's filed this lawsuit against Harford and their

278
00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:36.400
Board of Education. I mean, she's like accusing them of

279
00:18:36.559 --> 00:18:42.319
negligence failing to provide her with adequate special education services.

280
00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:46.200
I mean, I'm just thinking to myself, I wonder, and

281
00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:50.720
we know that our scores are good, you know, so

282
00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:53.920
you have to kind of wonder how many of them

283
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:58.519
now are in the workforce and they can't read, can't write,

284
00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:00.559
can't function well.

285
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.039
You also have to think too, you know, like you

286
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:06.400
were saying, it is in some ways a blessing how

287
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:08.920
kids had to do school at home because then parents

288
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:11.079
were allowed to see. But you have to kind of

289
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:13.720
fast forward to the college kids who were doing school

290
00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:16.839
at home. It left plenty of room for cheating. It

291
00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:19.839
left plenty of room for googling answers, you know, it

292
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:22.559
left plenty of room for quizlets, which are basically just

293
00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:25.720
online flash cards where you can look up the question

294
00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:29.039
to any test. It brings up the whole entire test,

295
00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:31.599
and then it has all of the correct answers. You know,

296
00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:35.839
these are our future doctors, our future lawyers, our future surgeons,

297
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:38.960
and they're at home, you know, cheating on tests and

298
00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:42.720
getting away with it. Because basically America has given up

299
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:46.279
on them due to COVID, and so that's something else

300
00:19:46.359 --> 00:19:49.119
to kind of keep in mind as well.

301
00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:54.799
Yeah, you know, you talked about the college students, so

302
00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:57.799
I want to kind of talk about them a little bit, Anna.

303
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:03.400
You know, and I've said this before, but the college

304
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:08.839
campuses have really become these these terrorist training camps, and

305
00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:13.279
I mean that they are now like your hotspot destination

306
00:20:13.640 --> 00:20:16.480
if you want to send your child to become like

307
00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:22.079
a a Marxist who learns how a riot or incite violence.

308
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:27.039
I mean it's against all Americans, but particularly Jewish students.

309
00:20:28.119 --> 00:20:33.039
It's really the anti Semitism is just off the charts high.

310
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:36.720
And I can remember when I went to college, it

311
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:39.720
was to be educated. Well, I paid my own way.

312
00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:43.839
My parents didn't pay for my college, but I wanted

313
00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:47.359
to be a nurse, and so I did whatever's necessary

314
00:20:47.440 --> 00:20:50.839
to study. And now they seem to be these breeding

315
00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:55.480
grounds of anti Semitic hate. I mean they're brutal, Anna,

316
00:20:55.640 --> 00:21:00.119
and there's like lawlessness. What was it the other day,

317
00:21:00.160 --> 00:21:08.400
there was uh, somebody who was a teacher, jose Felipe. Oh,

318
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:10.839
I'm probably not going to say his name, right, a

319
00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:17.240
laguage Alba. Anyhow, he flips over this table of this

320
00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:23.359
student who's supporting Brad Schimmel for Wisconsin Supreme Court race,

321
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:30.000
and I'm thinking, wow, why are why are they so angry?

322
00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:34.160
Is this like social contagion? You're angry, I'm angry. We're

323
00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:38.480
all angry. I mean, they're out there protesting every day,

324
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:42.319
all day long. They're not going to classes. I don't

325
00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:45.640
even know if they're enroll or not. I mean, it

326
00:21:45.799 --> 00:21:49.559
seems like it's just one big we're we're in an

327
00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:53.799
angry party. So I don't know if it's social contagion,

328
00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:57.359
if they're if they're like getting paid for it, like

329
00:21:57.400 --> 00:22:02.200
it's a George Soros and divisible staging. You know, let's

330
00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:05.440
go along and hold up these hand these signs that

331
00:22:05.480 --> 00:22:08.759
we made. Or are they just angry to be angry?

332
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:12.799
I think it would be extremely easy to be that

333
00:22:13.000 --> 00:22:17.000
angry if you were taught to hate yourself your whole life.

334
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.960
And you have to think about that with you know,

335
00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:22.720
we were just talking about that. Elementary schools and middle

336
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.599
schools into high school, you're taught essentially, you know, you've

337
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:29.640
got to be queer. You're not queer at all. Oh okay,

338
00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:32.599
So that's one reason to hate yourself. Oh you're white,

339
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:35.640
Well you owned my ancestors, so now you need to

340
00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:38.440
hate yourself. Oh you're a Christian, which means you don't

341
00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:40.519
support me, so now you need to hate yourself. Or

342
00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:43.119
you're Jewish, so you don't support me, So you need

343
00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:46.640
to hate yourself. That would tend to build up a

344
00:22:46.680 --> 00:22:49.440
lot of anger. And even you know, some of these

345
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:54.279
people who you know, it's illustrated amazingly and Matt Walsh's

346
00:22:54.680 --> 00:22:57.519
documentary you know, am I a racist? At the very

347
00:22:57.599 --> 00:22:59.960
end when he's you know, oh my gosh, your name escapes,

348
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:03.160
But when he's interviewing that woman and she he basically

349
00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:08.240
gets her to pay him pay his black assistant amends

350
00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:10.799
for all of the things that her past generations did.

351
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:13.799
So even people who are like hardcore liberals and believe

352
00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:17.319
themselves believe this stuff, are taught to now of hate

353
00:23:17.359 --> 00:23:20.359
themselves and owe something to somebody because you see all

354
00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:23.279
these people on college campuses being interviewed you know, well,

355
00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:26.480
do you know that you know if you were gay

356
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:29.759
in this country, they would kill you. Oh I didn't

357
00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:31.640
know that, you know what I'm saying, you know, And

358
00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:33.759
so there's a lot of things they're protesting things they

359
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:36.680
don't understand. A lot of it is because they're extremely

360
00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:39.839
easily influenced. And you see that, and I've seen that

361
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:42.519
when I've tried to have conversations with, you know, my

362
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:45.359
past friends about this kind of stuff, you know, like

363
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:46.559
why do you believe this stuff?

364
00:23:46.599 --> 00:23:46.720
Well?

365
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.240
Why do you do this? Well? Why do you do that?

366
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:51.640
They get angry because they don't know because their friends

367
00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:53.799
are doing it, so they will do it, you know,

368
00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:55.599
Or they'll be like, why did you come to this

369
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:58.920
protest today? You'll see people interviewing, Oh, well, my friend

370
00:23:58.960 --> 00:24:00.440
told me to be here at this time. I'm so

371
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:02.759
I'm here. So I think a lot of it comes

372
00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:07.440
from just an an absolute hatred of themselves because they

373
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:11.039
either they're great, great, great, great great great whatever owned

374
00:24:11.039 --> 00:24:13.680
a slave, or they don't believe in this, or they

375
00:24:13.720 --> 00:24:15.680
don't believe in that. So and it just comes from

376
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:19.680
a lot of being you know, easily easily influenced as

377
00:24:19.759 --> 00:24:22.720
children growing up and then into this and then you're

378
00:24:22.759 --> 00:24:25.400
seeing the product of what we were seeing, you know,

379
00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:28.079
in twenty twenty high schools and everything, you know, in

380
00:24:28.119 --> 00:24:31.240
twenty twenty three high schools. Now getting into college, you're

381
00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:34.319
seeing this product product, because it also comes down to,

382
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:37.200
you know, you can't at the end of the day

383
00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:41.240
love everything and love everyone and everything. There's got to

384
00:24:41.279 --> 00:24:43.759
be somewhere to stop. And so you're seeing now this

385
00:24:43.920 --> 00:24:47.519
basically it's like the Purge honestly is what we're seeing,

386
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:49.960
and the Purge movie is you know, if for people

387
00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:52.480
who don't know, it's basically twenty four hours of whatever

388
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:55.240
you want, just to get whatever you want out. We

389
00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:58.759
are seeing that in real time on college campuses. Just

390
00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:00.400
whatever you kind of want to do, you would just

391
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:02.720
kind of do it, but you're seeing it now playing

392
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:06.319
out negatively, whether that's you know, anti semitic behavior at

393
00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:10.279
college campuses, whether that's like biological men beating women up.

394
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:12.559
You know, and you're seeing this over and over again,

395
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:14.640
just everywhere, all of the time.

396
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:20.319
Yeah, and you know that is such a a true

397
00:25:20.440 --> 00:25:23.759
point and a valid point because you know, you think

398
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:27.279
about going back to critical race theory, you're an a

399
00:25:27.400 --> 00:25:31.400
pressor or you're a victim. You know, that mindset just

400
00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:36.920
gets played over and over again. You know, you you

401
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:43.839
brought up something where you were talking about girls biological

402
00:25:43.880 --> 00:25:47.240
boys beating up girls, and I don't know if you

403
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:51.599
saw this today. It just came across about an hour ago.

404
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:59.319
But there was actually a female at Wagner College and

405
00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:04.880
she would refusing to compete against a biological male. So

406
00:26:05.039 --> 00:26:07.240
it was a US fencing tournament.

407
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:09.680
Yes, I just saw this before we came on here.

408
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:15.400
Yes, was that not crazy? So they disqualify her and

409
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:20.559
expel her from the event, and I'm like, wait, all

410
00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:24.960
she's doing is saying, look, there's obviously differences. I mean,

411
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:27.640
you know X Y is different than x X.

412
00:26:27.960 --> 00:26:29.519
Yeah, I don't.

413
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:33.640
I mean, Anna, this is just ridiculous. And then she's

414
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:37.960
the one who gets punished because she's standing up for herself.

415
00:26:38.319 --> 00:26:41.799
Yes, I went through this exact thing, just with just

416
00:26:41.880 --> 00:26:45.960
not in sports, and it's you know, when I did theater,

417
00:26:46.680 --> 00:26:51.240
I was theater. I'm sorry, well, so I would perform

418
00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:54.960
like in plays and musicals here in Des Moines, Iowa.

419
00:26:55.400 --> 00:26:59.119
I did everything from like Hairspray and Legally Blonde and

420
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:02.200
Freaky Friday. All of it was the best time of

421
00:27:02.240 --> 00:27:05.240
my life. And it just slowly got to become where,

422
00:27:05.720 --> 00:27:08.559
you know, people had animosity towards me because I didn't

423
00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:10.799
share the same views as them. And when Matt Walsh

424
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:14.279
is what is a woman came out. I it changed

425
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:16.359
my life because it made me realize I need to

426
00:27:16.440 --> 00:27:19.920
stop being so complacent. I can't have both things at

427
00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:22.640
the same time. I cannot have my theater and not

428
00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:26.119
really talk about anything while also, you know, back here

429
00:27:26.200 --> 00:27:28.359
on my side life being like, oh, I'm a Christian

430
00:27:28.359 --> 00:27:30.119
and I basically can't stand any of the things you

431
00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:32.799
guys are doing. And I finally decided to come out

432
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:34.640
and say, you know what, I love this movie. I

433
00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:36.759
support what this movie stands for. I think everybody should

434
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:39.480
wash it. And I got, you know, threats. I got

435
00:27:39.519 --> 00:27:41.799
people telling me that if they were going to see me,

436
00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:43.519
they were going to beat me up. I told people

437
00:27:43.519 --> 00:27:46.279
that I just people told me that I deserved hell.

438
00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:48.880
You know, it was insane, you know. And then I

439
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:52.000
came out more about abortion, how I was completely against it,

440
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:56.119
every measure everything. I don't care what it is, don't

441
00:27:56.119 --> 00:27:59.160
ever do it. And people also told me, well, you know,

442
00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:02.759
I want people to die, and that again I deserve hell,

443
00:28:02.920 --> 00:28:05.759
and that I should be heard, and I don't deserve

444
00:28:05.799 --> 00:28:08.519
to have children of my own. And all of these

445
00:28:08.559 --> 00:28:10.960
people that were the closest people in my life, that

446
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:13.440
were my friends, that I slept over at their houses.

447
00:28:13.440 --> 00:28:15.599
They came over to mind. We'd go on broad trips together.

448
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:17.559
They were telling me that I deserve to go to

449
00:28:17.599 --> 00:28:20.279
hell because I didn't believe the same things they do.

450
00:28:20.799 --> 00:28:23.119
And that's what people are afraid of. And so when

451
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:25.839
you're talking about college campuses and you're talking about why

452
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:29.160
do these people do these things? They're my around my age.

453
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:32.519
I'm twenty four, you know, they're my age, and they

454
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:34.640
don't want to be told that they deserve hell and

455
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:37.000
death and no children. And they don't want to go

456
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.319
against the grain because it's difficult. And it's one of

457
00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:43.559
the main reasons that my favorite Bible verse John fifteen eighteen,

458
00:28:43.559 --> 00:28:45.920
where Jesus say is if the world hates you, they

459
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:49.640
hated me first. And he's explaining to his disciples anything

460
00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:52.200
you guys are going to go through, I have been

461
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:55.240
through it. And he's telling them like, I'm literally about

462
00:28:55.279 --> 00:28:57.400
to be put to death and tortured for you guys,

463
00:28:57.759 --> 00:28:59.920
Nothing that you guys go through in this world will

464
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:04.519
ever compare to what I'm doing. And that is what

465
00:29:04.599 --> 00:29:06.720
has helped me and encouraged me. But that's why you're

466
00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:08.720
seeing a lot of these kids who don't understand what

467
00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:11.240
they're really doing there and don't really understand what they're

468
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:13.039
fighting for because they don't want to be told by

469
00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:15.720
their friends. They have that roommate who is super anti

470
00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:18.680
Semitic that's being like, wait, you're not going to go

471
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.480
to this. Oh I thought you were different, and now

472
00:29:21.480 --> 00:29:23.200
they're in their head. Well, I have to live with

473
00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:25.319
this person for you know, the rest of the semester.

474
00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:27.319
I'm just going to go because I don't want to

475
00:29:27.359 --> 00:29:29.279
be hated, and I'll just you know, kind of play

476
00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:31.400
the part because I did that, you know for the

477
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:35.119
longest time. It's because it seems easier to play a

478
00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:37.839
part versus standing up for what you believe in. But

479
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:40.359
you're just living a lie and it just weighs and

480
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:41.640
weighs and weighs on you.

481
00:29:42.599 --> 00:29:47.640
Yeah. Absolutely, And at some point in time, you have

482
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:50.640
to be separate, you know. I mean we're called be

483
00:29:50.799 --> 00:29:53.920
separate from the world, and we have to stand up.

484
00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:56.720
And I think a lot of people, I know a

485
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:01.279
lot of people have high emotions about all of the

486
00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:06.920
deportations that are going on. But I really believe that

487
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:12.000
people who are supporting Hamas, which is a terrorist organization,

488
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:15.759
and those who have come over to the United States

489
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:19.160
and lied on their visa. I think they need to

490
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:22.599
be deported. Now. I know that that has raised a

491
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:28.799
lot of issues on college campuses. But these people are

492
00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:34.839
describing themselves as terrorists. I mean, they are part of

493
00:30:35.559 --> 00:30:41.839
organizations Columbia United Apartheid, divest They're a group and they

494
00:30:43.279 --> 00:30:48.200
vow to escalate their tactics until the empire crumbles. That's

495
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:53.240
what they say. They sympathize with terror groups like Hamas

496
00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:58.480
and Hezballah. And I think it's really dangerous for our

497
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:02.319
children on these can't this is who are in that

498
00:31:02.599 --> 00:31:07.759
age of experimentation. They're in kind of the age of

499
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:11.519
awe and wonder and you know, I'm I'm an adult,

500
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:16.599
but they're still you know, learning and growing and maybe

501
00:31:16.640 --> 00:31:19.640
they haven't you know, maybe they grew up in rural

502
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:23.720
America somewhere, you know, or you know, they still have

503
00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:26.039
things that they still have to learn. I mean seriously,

504
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:29.960
I mean, you know, you're eighteen years old, eighteen nineteen,

505
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:34.039
you still need a little a little cooking. You know,

506
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:37.640
you're still to learn and to get you know, things,

507
00:31:37.799 --> 00:31:41.559
you know, experiences and live life and so you know,

508
00:31:41.720 --> 00:31:46.880
I really believe that these are things that they are

509
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:52.839
maybe being dragged into because they're going along with it.

510
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:58.440
They see their friends protesting. It is something that seems

511
00:31:58.599 --> 00:32:01.960
like a rebuild yen, which you know, listen, I was

512
00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:04.960
the most rebellious kid, you know in the world. You know,

513
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:08.359
I don't ask my parents, but you know, but you know,

514
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:11.359
I mean, you know, I think maybe this is something

515
00:32:11.480 --> 00:32:14.839
that appeals to them, and we're better place to do

516
00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:17.279
it than on the college campuses.

517
00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:21.720
Yes, and it also just comes from being uninformed. I've

518
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:23.559
noticed that a lot as well. You know, when you

519
00:32:23.640 --> 00:32:27.440
have more conversations with people, they don't really know a

520
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:30.440
lot about what they're saying. And I hate to sound rude,

521
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:33.039
but it's just true. You know, even a lot of

522
00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:37.400
them are so intoxicated. You kind of you mentioned it earlier,

523
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:41.920
this woke mind virus. It is a virus, and it's intoxicating,

524
00:32:42.680 --> 00:32:45.720
and it's it's something where sometimes they don't even see

525
00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:49.920
what they're saying is is weird and wrong. You know.

526
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:51.799
I saw Charlie Kirk. He goes to a lot of

527
00:32:51.799 --> 00:32:54.440
these college campuses and just talks to these kids and

528
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:57.279
ask them these questions and gets them to think. And

529
00:32:57.440 --> 00:33:00.119
he asked this girl, you know, he was like, well,

530
00:33:00.400 --> 00:33:04.000
would you want a dude changing in the same you

531
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:06.960
know room as you a woman. And she was like, well,

532
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:09.519
if that guy feels like a girl and wants to

533
00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:12.839
be a girl, then yes. It's like, but you don't though,

534
00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:17.079
like you don't actually want that. You just so don't

535
00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:20.640
know how to you know, defend what you're saying that

536
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:23.319
you'll just just about say anything. There was this book

537
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:26.559
I read when I was a kid, Percy Jackson and

538
00:33:26.599 --> 00:33:29.240
The Lighting Thief, and I reference this a lot. In

539
00:33:29.319 --> 00:33:31.880
There is a scene and it's kind of like about

540
00:33:32.400 --> 00:33:35.799
these kids and they're on this journey essentially, and they're

541
00:33:35.960 --> 00:33:39.599
fed this thing to basically make it so that time

542
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:44.279
doesn't exist. So they're basically in this you know, casino.

543
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:47.440
They're fed this like it's called a lotus flower, and

544
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:51.079
they don't understand really what they're doing, and time is

545
00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:53.039
just moving and moving and moving and moving, and they're

546
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:56.240
just kind of in this trance. When I see these

547
00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:58.920
college kids or even people my age, you know, talking

548
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:01.880
about this stuff, it makes me think of that when

549
00:34:01.880 --> 00:34:03.480
I read that in a book when I was a kid,

550
00:34:03.759 --> 00:34:06.720
that they've just taken this thing and now they just

551
00:34:06.839 --> 00:34:09.679
don't understand where they're at. They don't understand what they're doing.

552
00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:12.000
They're just going to do whatever. It's like back in

553
00:34:12.039 --> 00:34:14.840
twenty twenty, when all of the you know, BLM riots

554
00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:18.119
were happening. I knew people here in Iowa who were

555
00:34:18.159 --> 00:34:21.880
looting Males that I worked at. I knew them, and

556
00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:24.480
they were going and breaking into these stores, you know,

557
00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:27.280
at Males that I would go and work at. I

558
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:28.920
remember the mall that I worked at had to be

559
00:34:29.000 --> 00:34:31.920
boarded up, and these people would just be like, you know,

560
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:34.519
I don't really agree with this, but screw it. I

561
00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:35.760
want a free pair of shoes.

562
00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:36.280
You know.

563
00:34:36.320 --> 00:34:38.679
They're just with their friends. They It's like it's like

564
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.840
this mix of wanting to rebel, being misinformed, and wanting

565
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:45.079
to be liked and loved by their peers. So they'll

566
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:51.400
basically do just about anything, and that is extremely extremely dangerous.

567
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:58.280
Yeah. Absolutely, I really hope that we can get things

568
00:34:58.559 --> 00:35:05.280
under control because it is concerning to me where we're headed.

569
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:08.599
But I want to bring up another point, and that's Hollywood.

570
00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:14.039
Hollywood has really I mean, it's obviously a huge influence

571
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:19.039
for the culture itself, but they have gone so woke,

572
00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:23.880
they've gone oak. I mean, yeah, you know, and I

573
00:35:23.960 --> 00:35:27.480
didn't see it snow White, but I know you did.

574
00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:30.920
I mean, I just read the articles. I heard. It

575
00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:34.440
was it was rewritten. It wasn't like the same story.

576
00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:40.920
The lead actress, Rachel Ziggler, I think she seems pretty unlikable,

577
00:35:41.000 --> 00:35:45.360
has really said a lot of things that I believe antisemitic.

578
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:48.960
And and then they did odd things in the show.

579
00:35:49.199 --> 00:35:51.320
Like you know, I have a couple friends of mine.

580
00:35:51.400 --> 00:35:55.800
They call themselves little people, they're midgets, but they were actors.

581
00:35:55.920 --> 00:35:58.679
They worked. It was back in the eighties, you know,

582
00:35:58.760 --> 00:36:01.639
in the nineties, and they did different movies and they

583
00:36:01.639 --> 00:36:05.960
didn't use them, they used CGI. So what do you

584
00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:09.639
think about that? Because I kind of see how Hollywood

585
00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:13.079
is influencing and they're going woke and woke and woke

586
00:36:13.119 --> 00:36:16.320
and woke, and I think people are pushing back on that,

587
00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:20.679
like I can not anymore now.

588
00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:23.960
I'll tell you what. The only reason I saw Snow

589
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:26.159
White was because I live in a small town now

590
00:36:26.199 --> 00:36:28.800
in Iowa, and that was one of three movies and

591
00:36:28.840 --> 00:36:32.639
my husband and I desperately needed a date. So before

592
00:36:32.679 --> 00:36:34.840
people are like, why would you give your money to that?

593
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:36.960
You know, all the money here it goes to the

594
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:40.400
nice like Christian college here, So don't come for me

595
00:36:40.519 --> 00:36:40.719
for that.

596
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:45.000
Okay. First second, nobody write or a letter, yes, don't.

597
00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:48.599
Don't please. Secondly, you know, I was also just curious

598
00:36:48.639 --> 00:36:53.920
because as informational as X can be, you know, we

599
00:36:54.039 --> 00:36:56.840
are still human beings, we are still faulty human beings,

600
00:36:56.880 --> 00:37:01.000
and sometimes even our people want to create a narrative

601
00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:04.000
that goes for us. And so I was like, I

602
00:37:04.079 --> 00:37:05.760
want to go see this and see if it's if

603
00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:08.000
this is real life. And let me just say, I mean,

604
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:12.159
the movie is terrible, Okay, it's really bad, but the

605
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:18.199
story was actually extremely positive, to the point where if

606
00:37:18.679 --> 00:37:20.960
at least and maybe the it's rewritten and you know,

607
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:23.039
and who knows, and maybe they rewrote it to be

608
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:26.480
this way. But if she Rachel, who plays snow White,

609
00:37:26.519 --> 00:37:29.719
hadn't given it such bad press, I would have actually

610
00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:33.559
highly recommended it to probably everybody I know. It gives

611
00:37:33.599 --> 00:37:36.760
a very strong message, you know, the snow White in

612
00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:38.880
this movie. There are things that are you know, different,

613
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:42.440
more modernized. It's not the original story, and so obviously

614
00:37:42.440 --> 00:37:45.559
there are plenty of disses on that, but the story itself,

615
00:37:45.599 --> 00:37:48.280
you know, snow White is extremely close with her father.

616
00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:50.960
She gets all of her inspiration from her father, which

617
00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:54.239
is her lead male influence. You know, she still falls

618
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:57.559
in love with a guy. There's absolutely no queer stuff

619
00:37:57.559 --> 00:38:00.840
in it. Absolutely no you know, weird stuff in it

620
00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:03.559
that is about like very liberal at all.

621
00:38:04.079 --> 00:38:04.320
You know.

622
00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:06.199
She falls in love with a guy who fights in

623
00:38:06.239 --> 00:38:09.679
her dad's honor, you know, and is like rescues her

624
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:12.679
multiple times and helps her. And so there's very strong

625
00:38:12.800 --> 00:38:16.360
male influences in this movie. They get married at the end,

626
00:38:16.519 --> 00:38:17.559
so that's a plus.

627
00:38:17.880 --> 00:38:18.079
You know.

628
00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:21.079
So things like that where and I look for that? Now?

629
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:25.760
Are there strong male influences in this movie? Are there

630
00:38:25.760 --> 00:38:28.119
things that we can take away from the men? Are

631
00:38:28.119 --> 00:38:32.519
they leaders or are they dunces? There's absolutely no dunce

632
00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:36.880
males in this film. They're all leaders. So if she

633
00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:39.880
hadn't done that, and I tweeted about this too, you know,

634
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:42.599
she comes from the same background that I did. She

635
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:46.519
did theater, She did the plays in musicals in her hometown,

636
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:49.360
and that's how she got discovered and was in Steven

637
00:38:49.400 --> 00:38:53.239
Spielberg's rendition of West Side Story. She got discovered from

638
00:38:53.239 --> 00:38:55.400
that and then did that movie, which was huge for

639
00:38:55.519 --> 00:38:58.039
us theater kids. We were like, wow, because that could

640
00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:01.920
be us, and now she just has that woke mind virus.

641
00:39:01.920 --> 00:39:04.679
But you're seeing it play out, and so when you're

642
00:39:04.719 --> 00:39:07.320
seeing her, you know, in these interviews, that is what

643
00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:09.960
a lot of these theater kids, public school kids, that's

644
00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:12.519
what they believe. Like, that's what they think. You're just

645
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:15.880
seeing it plastered on posters and plastered on interviews, so

646
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:20.079
it seems really crazy. It's really not that crazy. Basically,

647
00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:23.199
everybody I know that went to public high school believes

648
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:23.880
the same thing.

649
00:39:25.079 --> 00:39:31.400
Wow. Wow, Well that's that's interesting. I wasn't planning on

650
00:39:31.559 --> 00:39:34.039
seeing it. I might see it. I might wait until

651
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:36.800
it comes out on like you know, Netti pastor like that,

652
00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:39.880
you know, But anyhow I might have to to take

653
00:39:39.920 --> 00:39:41.239
a peek at it, you know.

654
00:39:41.519 --> 00:39:43.880
But it's a I mean, it's a horrible movie.

655
00:39:43.960 --> 00:39:44.920
It's horrible.

656
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:49.039
I mean, the Evil Queen, you know, gal Gado is trash.

657
00:39:49.079 --> 00:39:50.960
So it's don't go into it like, wow, this is

658
00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:55.599
gonna be really good. It's not. But the message is

659
00:39:55.679 --> 00:39:58.280
not as bad as you would actually think that it is.

660
00:39:58.840 --> 00:40:01.480
You got to look for the silver yeah.

661
00:40:01.079 --> 00:40:04.239
Yeah, yeah. And for most who don't know the difference,

662
00:40:04.760 --> 00:40:05.400
they'll love.

663
00:40:05.239 --> 00:40:09.840
It, gotcha. Gotcha. Well, I want to touch on one

664
00:40:09.960 --> 00:40:15.360
last subject, and that's the Department of Education. Our president

665
00:40:15.480 --> 00:40:20.760
has signed an executive order to disband the Department of Education,

666
00:40:21.119 --> 00:40:24.800
and of course it didn't take long for an advocacy

667
00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:29.119
group to jump in en sue and block the dismantling

668
00:40:29.199 --> 00:40:33.199
of the Department of Education. They say that his executive

669
00:40:33.320 --> 00:40:38.480
orders exceeds as constitutional authority and it violates the Federal

670
00:40:38.559 --> 00:40:45.760
Administrative Procedure Act. But I am for dismantling the Department

671
00:40:45.800 --> 00:40:49.000
of Education and bringing it back to the States. My

672
00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:53.880
only concern is is that you're going to have some

673
00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:58.559
states where, you know, they're really focused on education, and

674
00:40:58.599 --> 00:41:01.760
I can't think of the states right now, but they're

675
00:41:01.800 --> 00:41:04.400
really focused on education. They're going to do a great job.

676
00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:07.039
And then you're going to have some states where they're

677
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:11.639
still or even maybe some sections of a state where

678
00:41:11.679 --> 00:41:16.719
they're still stuck in these you know, woke curriculums and

679
00:41:16.760 --> 00:41:18.280
they're not going to give them up. I mean, we

680
00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:21.559
still see it all over you know, social media. You

681
00:41:21.679 --> 00:41:26.519
still have teachers putting up pride flags everywhere, and you know,

682
00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:30.639
putting out their you know, their pornography books and they're like, no,

683
00:41:30.800 --> 00:41:33.440
you know, we're not going to do it. So that's

684
00:41:33.480 --> 00:41:37.000
a big concern to me, is how is that going

685
00:41:37.119 --> 00:41:41.079
to line out, because you know you're gonna you're going

686
00:41:41.119 --> 00:41:47.000
to have some real i think difficulty even within a state,

687
00:41:47.719 --> 00:41:50.760
if you're trying to get education at a state level

688
00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:51.760
across the board.

689
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.639
Well you even see this with abortion as well, now

690
00:41:54.679 --> 00:41:56.519
that it has gone back to the states. You see

691
00:41:56.719 --> 00:41:59.599
a state like mine that has the Heartbeat Bill, and

692
00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:02.639
that's fantastic for us, and you know, praise be to

693
00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:04.880
God for that that we can get something like that

694
00:42:04.920 --> 00:42:07.559
going here. But then you see you know, states like

695
00:42:07.559 --> 00:42:11.599
California where it's basically like hey, you know, do whatever,

696
00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:14.119
and so you see that, yeah, and so you see that,

697
00:42:14.239 --> 00:42:16.400
you know with abortion as well. And so I think

698
00:42:16.440 --> 00:42:19.280
it comes down to, you know, if you are in

699
00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:22.400
a state like that where it's basically you know, h

700
00:42:22.480 --> 00:42:24.800
e double hockey sticks at that point with education and

701
00:42:24.880 --> 00:42:27.320
things like that, you know you're you're called to kind

702
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:29.079
of take it into your own hands at this point.

703
00:42:29.119 --> 00:42:31.000
And as we were kind of talking and you know,

704
00:42:31.320 --> 00:42:34.079
bashing on the public schools, I've seen it a lot

705
00:42:34.119 --> 00:42:36.159
too though, where you know, if you decide to homeschool

706
00:42:36.199 --> 00:42:38.800
your kids. You need to take the time to educate them,

707
00:42:39.039 --> 00:42:40.800
but you also need to take the time to prepare

708
00:42:40.840 --> 00:42:42.559
them to go out into the real world. There were

709
00:42:42.599 --> 00:42:45.159
so many kids that I knew that weren't ready, so

710
00:42:45.159 --> 00:42:47.480
many kids that I knew that you know, weren't prepared

711
00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:50.639
for that spiritually mentally where they thought they could just

712
00:42:50.679 --> 00:42:52.559
go out and they'd read the Bible to people and

713
00:42:52.559 --> 00:42:55.119
they would just follow them and believe, and that's they're

714
00:42:55.159 --> 00:42:57.360
living in some mythical world. And so if you are

715
00:42:57.400 --> 00:43:00.199
living in a state like that where you're like, I'm

716
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:02.480
going to you know, it's going to suck. I'm my

717
00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:04.239
My state's not going to be ready to take it

718
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.199
into their own hands. And you decide, I went to

719
00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:09.519
home school, prepare your children for what the real world

720
00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:12.960
is like. There are positives, but there are strong, strong negatives,

721
00:43:12.960 --> 00:43:15.000
And so I wanted to make sure that I said

722
00:43:15.000 --> 00:43:15.719
that as well.

723
00:43:16.480 --> 00:43:20.239
Yeah, and I'll be honest with you, I look forward

724
00:43:20.360 --> 00:43:24.320
to the education going back to the States because I'd

725
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:29.159
like to see more people do homeschooling. So I've seen

726
00:43:29.239 --> 00:43:33.440
more people do community schooling. I don't know what they

727
00:43:33.599 --> 00:43:37.199
call them now, but it's like some communities where you know,

728
00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:41.239
you've got you know, one county and they're they're all

729
00:43:41.320 --> 00:43:44.159
kind of you know, group together, you know.

730
00:43:44.280 --> 00:43:46.400
I went to a co op is what we called it.

731
00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:49.039
And I went to a co op and we meet

732
00:43:49.079 --> 00:43:51.320
once a week and you had you know, people who

733
00:43:51.360 --> 00:43:53.840
had been teachers in their past lives or parents who

734
00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:56.079
were really you know, well off in that field, and

735
00:43:56.119 --> 00:43:58.079
they would teach us once a week. I did that

736
00:43:58.159 --> 00:43:59.679
for four years of my high school.

737
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:03.519
Yeah. I think it's a great idea. I'm looking forward

738
00:44:03.559 --> 00:44:06.239
to it. I think we are in the golden age

739
00:44:07.039 --> 00:44:10.320
of America. I think though it's going to take all

740
00:44:10.400 --> 00:44:13.119
of us, Anna, I think we're all going to have

741
00:44:13.199 --> 00:44:14.840
to dig in and.

742
00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:15.880
Do our part.

743
00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:21.440
But but it has been an incredible time speaking with you.

744
00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:24.039
I want to give you in our last minute here,

745
00:44:24.079 --> 00:44:27.360
I want to give you the last word. Anything you'd

746
00:44:27.400 --> 00:44:30.880
like to say, tell the audience and uh, you know,

747
00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:31.800
share with us.

748
00:44:32.039 --> 00:44:34.239
Well, thank you for having me on. First off, I

749
00:44:34.280 --> 00:44:37.400
really appreciate it. It was a great conversation. And yeah, like

750
00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:40.320
the little thing, he says, I'm the host of Let's Talk,

751
00:44:40.400 --> 00:44:44.239
where real women have real conversations about real topics. I

752
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:47.280
have different women on just to discuss you know, everything

753
00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:50.440
from we've had women on to discuss eating orders, eating

754
00:44:50.480 --> 00:44:53.719
disorders to you know, self harm, just things that can

755
00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:56.199
help the young women who are you know, might be

756
00:44:56.239 --> 00:44:58.480
going to these public schools or who are trying to

757
00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:02.000
you know, figure out so issues from a Christian perspective

758
00:45:02.280 --> 00:45:06.079
and also just from a relatable perspective. And so that's

759
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:08.719
on YouTube and Rumble. I post them on x as

760
00:45:08.719 --> 00:45:12.239
well and then Spotify and in Apple, so look for that.

761
00:45:12.360 --> 00:45:14.800
It's the Let's Talk podcast and you can follow me

762
00:45:14.880 --> 00:45:17.039
on x as well. That's usually where I do all

763
00:45:17.079 --> 00:45:18.480
my stuff mostly.

764
00:45:19.599 --> 00:45:22.840
Well, Anna, it has been a pleasure to speak with you.

765
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:26.280
I am very grateful that you came on today, took

766
00:45:26.360 --> 00:45:29.480
time to stop by and did a little chit chat

767
00:45:29.559 --> 00:45:33.119
with us. I kind of like shooting the breeze and

768
00:45:34.000 --> 00:45:36.400
I loved doing that with you. So I'd love to

769
00:45:36.400 --> 00:45:37.280
have you back on.

770
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:39.760
Yes, I'd love that. Thank you so much.

771
00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:43.679
Excellent. Well, I want to say I enjoyed being with

772
00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:47.639
you all today. Thank you so much for joining in

773
00:45:47.679 --> 00:45:52.639
with us. Remember that resistance is not feudal, and blessings

774
00:45:52.679 --> 00:45:54.079
to you all. Always.

775
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:36.519
It's time to stand up, speak out, get involved, and

776
00:46:36.679 --> 00:46:38.400
let's beak intentions
