I agree with you. Matt did not change any laws. Other people do. He reports on single topics which I don't think he truly understands. He does not go any deeper. You gave done more. Hours and hours we watch your streams. I am better for watching so I can understand more and in depth. I am able to explain points to others without overwhelming them. I appreciate you and all you do! ♥️
Don't both right and left need each other? They define themselves by their enemies. There are those, like you, who actually want to address and solve the problems. When you point out to conservatives what they're doing wrong, they blast you because you expose their game., that they DON'T want to solve the problems, but rather, to exploit them. (If the problem was solved, they would be deprived of an enemy--much like the woke left. For instance, same-sex marriage is approved, so the Human Rights Campaign changes focus on trans issues and activists warn of a "trans genocide," because if they solve the problem, they can't fundraise, they can't continue their activism, etc., so even where a problem doesn't exist, they must manufacture one--or exaggerate one where it does exist.)
Walsh is only playing to his side; not only will be not gain any converts, but he will push those who genuinely care about these issues and oppose the destructiveness of wokeness away from social conservativism (and maybe conservatism altogether). It's about grifting and opportunism for Walsh and his ilk. This is different from Tucker Carlson, who I think believes most of what he says (and is on fire in his last 3 Twitter eps). Of course, when a conservative tells the truth, as when a leftist or a centrist or anyone tells the truth, there will be angry backlash from those with vested interests. Carlson crossed Big Pharma and the military industrial complex. After his 1st Twitter ep, where he mentioned 9/11, I discovered he'd mentioned the pecularities regarding Building 7 (not on his show, but it doesn't matter. Any hints of trutherism is still enough to get you crucified, even though Tucker never said anything like, "Bush and Cheney did 9/11!" as far as I've found. lol.)
Lots of people salivate at the prospect of "the entire conservative movement" or "the entire left" going down. In 2017 Dennis Prager called "the left" a "cancer" to be eliminated, or something like that. When people talk like that, they are only going to generate hate, and defiance--not only against the immediate targets (the left, or as I call it, regarding retard Prager, "Teh Left") but those who are genuinely independent thinkers who hate being forced into neat little boxes. People will always call you a fascist, or a Communist, or a racist, or some stupid shit when they don't like something you say, but it's largely a function of our current political culture, that people are more interested in trying to delegitimizing the messenger than confronting the content of the message.
Which takes me back to Walsh, and the extreme irony of those who call you a "cult leader" (lol). They are the ones who create cults of personality and take the focus off the issue and onto themselves, and sabotage the movement that purport to represent. But they don't care if they burn the movement to the ground, so long as they are getting their $ and clout.
(Similar movements are the pro-life and pro-choice movements. Yes, I realize, of course, they call each other "anti-abortion" or "pro-forced-birth or "pro-rape" and "pro-abortion" or "pro-death" or "pro-baby killing" etc., but that's to be expected.)
I consider Matt Walsh and the DW to be simply part of Con Inc. On the other hand, I do find it interesting that Twitter went to lengths to censor the free showing of “What is a woman?”. Maybe that’s simply part of the spectacle.
I was able to watch it, and, even though people may disparage Matt and Co., they are taking a risky chance when they uncover facts that many of us aren't aware of. "What is a Woman" was expertly crafted, IMHO.
Yes, I suppose you have a point. I will admit, he probably is preaching to the choir. But, I think he may see his mission differently. Policy changes need implementing on a grassroots level with citizen pushback.
.....if you don't think that's wokism than you are missing the bigger picture and you need to interact with the content more carefully than you currently are.
Punditry is entertainment. It's not the same thing as activism. And I think Matt Walsh is evidence that social conservatism is on the rise... because liberal snark is stale and Matt Walsh is rocking it. Jon Stewart dried up and got radicalized by his kid. he doesn't make sense anymore.
The right needs more activists and fewer entertainers. The one advantage the right needs over the left is understanding what they believe, what their goals are and how they plan to achieve them. How can the right move forward with an effective plan to fight and defeat the left if they know nothing about their enemy? The left doesn’t understand the right either, but they don’t need to. They have all the power (at least where it counts) and the right needs to process that fact before anything can be done. I’m sure Matt Walsh and all of his fans believe they are making a real difference, but it honestly looks to me like the same hero worship we saw with James O’keefe. They might as well be saying, “We don’t care if we lose as long as we always hear what we want to hear along the way.” What happened to wanting to leave our world better for our children and grandchildren to inherit?
As great as this article is, you left out one detail that was crucial in finally turning me off from Matt Walsh basically forever: The man is a fan of doxing. Well, soft-core doxing at least, as explained in my DA journals:
Not many. Some are just not voted in. But, you are right. The decision making is always sub rosa. We did manage to evict two radical activists on the school board, but it probably won't stop the momentum.
Well first of all, I already did. I wrote a whole book about it. I publish new information almost every day about it. Even in this article I explain it. You have to want to listen and learn.
I’ve only actively participated in a small town community effort which was massively enough work in itself. Certain neighborhoods in San Francisco make it insanely difficult to win over hearts and minds. They are utterly seeped in propaganda. You will find people who think like you eventually but you really have to test the waters carefully and only focus on the thing you want to get done. I write letters and if you decide to do that make sure to look for exactly the person who it should be addressed to.
And the fact that you think school boards have any power in this shows that you haven't been listening to the road map I've been given you for two years. Because I've been screaming for two years that school boards do not control these decisions. That is by your state laws.
DeSantis is so anti-woke that these ideas are still taught in schools all over florida and you have no idea because you don't know where to look. As I have said 15 ways from Sunday, I have given you a roadmap. An explicit roadmap. Repeatedly. In multiple different formats. I cannot force you to care enough to learn.
make the info accessible, people are coming to this in their own time. When it comes to our children, all bets are off. This is a wedge issue for plenty of liberal parents, believe me.
So he "raises awareness" (of a problem better people have been screaming about for years before he even knew what it was) and then lulls his audience into complacency.
Yes I do. The reality that nothing is changing, you don't even know which policies are on the books that matter, and they are adding new policies every day. You are more than complacent. You'd rather argue when the proof is right in front of you than confront the problem your tribe created.
Fortunately, for a city like San Francisco, the Asian population is a ton more discerning about how the "progressives" are slowly demolishing the political framework in the city. They keep an eye on progressives in the school system and policies they know, passionately, will have an impact on their children. Plus, there are a lot of SF citizens who deeply detest politicians like Scott Wiener and, like Chesa Boudin, he may get a reality check quite soon.

On the subject of movements (countermovements) with long, symbiotic relationships, this is an excellent book in my opinion:

So frustrating this is happening. I wish Matt Walsh and the rest would wake up.

So expertly crafted it changed exactly zero minds.

.....what policies have been changed that actually matter? I'll wait.
ROGD changes opinions. How many people are following you because their children fell under the influence of gender ideology? It's not the wokism. The gender issue is on another level. There's a story in today's WAPO that feels so alarmingly biased... this stuff is nuclear fallout. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2023/06/15/abortion-transgender-christian-doctors/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_most&carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F3a4fafe%2F648b342c2e7a825a07a1324e%2F6425f26d1c7bbc3357f9b66e%2F9%2F72%2F648b342c2e7a825a07a1324e
.....if you don't think that's wokism than you are missing the bigger picture and you need to interact with the content more carefully than you currently are.
Doctor, you are the master of your unwoke domain. I am raising children.
Matt Walsh and the DW are grifters on the right. They could focus their considerable resources and energy to help fix schools, but they don’t.
In order to keep weeds from growing, you need to pull their roots. Matt is only focusing on the leaves.
Punditry is entertainment. It's not the same thing as activism. And I think Matt Walsh is evidence that social conservatism is on the rise... because liberal snark is stale and Matt Walsh is rocking it. Jon Stewart dried up and got radicalized by his kid. he doesn't make sense anymore.
.....reality disagrees with you. As I outlined in the article you're commenting on. May I suggest going back and reading?
I need a short answer, what if not the school policy?
At any rate, your personal beef with Matt Walsh is not important.
Medicalization of children is an important issue.
I'm ready to flip my vote on this issue.
The short answer is that you need to read the article you're literally commenting on.
Audible version, which I know I'll finish. ;)

....you don't even understand the problem you're fighting.
I didn’t think I could be surprised by the level of willful ignorance in right-leaning folks, but some of the comments here are proving me wrong.

Got a little push-back from some online friends, but it was worth it. Check it out if you're ever so inclined, I'd like to hear/read your opinion
Not many. Some are just not voted in. But, you are right. The decision making is always sub rosa. We did manage to evict two radical activists on the school board, but it probably won't stop the momentum.
School boards do not have decision making power over the things that matter.
Then, give us a road map. I wouldn't even know where to start. Is it the teachers union? Politicians like our governor? Where, who?
Well first of all, I already did. I wrote a whole book about it. I publish new information almost every day about it. Even in this article I explain it. You have to want to listen and learn.
Just bought "Actively Unwoke." Look forward to it.
Awesome! I hoe you enjoy it.
I'm interested in working in my community too. Looking for a community w/ best practices.

That's the very definition of a useful idiot.
The fact is you don't even know that school boards don't matter shows just how complacent you are.
Yes I do. The reality that nothing is changing, you don't even know which policies are on the books that matter, and they are adding new policies every day. You are more than complacent. You'd rather argue when the proof is right in front of you than confront the problem your tribe created.
You can't change definitions to suit what you want them to.
