Comments by "Dennis" (@Dennis-nc3vw) on "The Majority Report w/ Sam Seder" channel.

  1. What does that have to do with 17 year olds?
    19
  2.  @wesjuice1124  Youth suicide is higher than ever because of our infantilization of young adults (13 - 25). Did you know there was a time when teens were portrayed as happy-go-lucky, not angsty and dysfunctional? Now that angst and dysfunction is starting to extend into the 20s.
    13
  3. Although I'm not fond of the idea of marrying off minors, society does need to have a serious conversation about "extended adolescence." It's more obvious than a sledgehammer to the crotch that mother nature intends for us to be adults well before 18, and that's why no society on Earth recognized a cut off for adulthood as high as 18 prior to the industrial age. This is where teenage angst comes from, no doubt, and we're starting to see it bleed into the early 20s.

  4. Life expectancy was dragged down by high infant/toddler mortality rates. 40 wasn't old.
    5
  5. And you accuse other people of "stochastic terrorism." Christ.
    5
  6. The hate you can feel radiating off this channel is amazing.
    5
  7.  @gavindies7271  And eye that can't see is still an eye. That doesn't mean an ear can be an eye. An eye is "of the nature" (as Matt Walsh puts it) to see.

  8. They didn't have to wait for mental maturity to catch up with biological maturity because teenagers were much more mature back then. Alexander the Great was conquering the world at 16, Alexander Hamilton was running a shipping company at 14, Julius Caesar was patriarch of his family at 16, etc. Minors today are isolated from the adult world in a way teenagers and children weren't for most of history. Generally for most of history, your mother and father were farmers, and you would spend your life integrated to some degree in their role from the moment you turned 5 years old, and that was the role you knew you'd have for the rest of your life. In other words, a 13 year old already understood the adult world and his future far more than the average 18 year old does today.

  9.  @conceptcs  It was 20 - 25 because of high infant mortality rate. 25 wasn't old back then. If you made it to 25, your chances of making it to 65 were pretty good.
    4
  10. No, the average time for babies was 18 - 24. That didn't mean it was taboo to get married at 15. Today age of consent is 18 but most people don't have babies until their 30s.
    4
  11. Those 10 year old mothers have to tremendously skew those statistics.
    4
  12. And Canada, and every other nation the liberals want to remake America in the image of.
    3
  13. Episode 1010 of the Matt Walsh show, timestamps 32:23 and 35:42 you can clearly hear two different hospital workers confirm they perform the operation on 16 years olds.
    3
  14. The amount of hate you can feel radiating off of Sam is amazing. He probably wakes up scowling.
    3
  15.  @vivian2798  It's older than the age of consent in most of the countries you lefties want to remake America in the image of (Canada, Denmark, Sweden).
    3
  16.  @sawtooth808  You ruin children's lives just to get back at your parents for making you sit through church and you dare moralize?
    3
  17. Sam conveniently leaves out the second half of the call, where she is transferred and someone else confirms they perform surgeries on minors.
    3
  18.  @pano3607  Except the full call shows two people confirming they do surgery on minors.
    3
  19. Oh please, cut the melodrama. 50% of Americans lose their virginity before 18 and that probably doesn't bother you in the slightest. Besides, 16 year olds are regularly tried as adults in court, and in Texas its illegal to try a 17 year old as a juvenile. You probably loved the movie American Pie which said you are a loser if you don't have sex before you graduate High School. That movie came out right around the time Matt Walsh made these comments.
    2
  20.  @asherscott3151  The full call of Matt Walsh's show very clearly shows otherwise. Chaya makes it crystal clear she's looking for hysterectomy, has a 16 year old "son" (daughter), and is confirmed the operations will be performed by two seperate people. 32:23 and 35:42 are the time stamps, episode 1010 of the Matt Walsh show.
    2
  21. Wow, this really stoops to an amazing low. I'm not talking about Matt Walsh, I'm talking about you, Sam. The "operator" transfers the call to someone else, who confirms they are performing surgery on minors. You conveniently omitted that part.
    2
  22. That's what they say on their website. If someone says on their Facebook Page that they don't sell drugs, and then you call them up asking for crack and they say they do, which do you believe?
    2
  23. Yeah because teenage marriage totally equates with barefoot and pregnant. Just ask Annie Oakley.
    2
  24. "The reason that girls were getting impregnated at young ages is because they were property for men." So explain Henry VIII who married a 25 year old woman when he was 14. Or Ghengis Khan who was married off when he was 9? Or Louis the XIV who was married to Marie Antoinette when he was 15. Also are you telling me Annie Oakely was forced to marry Frank E. Butler, even though at the time she was so self-sufficient she managed to pay off her widowed mother's mortgage with her hunting game?
    2
  25. Exactly, this is such a "The Emperor's Not Wearing Any Clothes" issue.
    2
  26. It was teenage males he was calling on to be more mature and responsible. Anyway, what good has delaying marriage and families done for society? Youth suicide (13 - 25) is at an all time high. A period of life that was once stereotyped as happy-go-lucky is now stereotyped as angsty and dysfunctional.
    2
  27. Your side allows children to be mutilated, sterilized, pumped full of dangerous drugs, and put down a path with 10X normal suicidality rate, just so you can stick it to your parents for making you sit through church, and you dare call Matt Walsh hateful? Sam Seder deceptively edited this call by the way. The full version shows two people confirming they do surgery on minors.

  28. "The Modern Liberal will invariably side with evil over good, wrong over right, and the behaviors that lead to failure over those that lead to success. [...] There is no criterion by which the Modern Liberal arrives at his beliefs other than to take what you believe, and to attack it." - Evan Sayet
    2
  29. No, Matt is right. It's disgusting how, for the sake of virtue signalling, we'll report a teenager who agrees to sex as "raped" just the same we'd report a teenage violently forced into sex as "raped." Even if we accept teenager consent is not informed consent because of their immaturity, we all still know a "yes" from a 15 year old is a lot closer in moral worth to a "yes" from an 18 year old than "no" form anyone. Having sex with an unconscious person is rape. Having sex with an 18 year old is not. Which is a 15 year old closer to in terms of sapience? An unconscious person, or an 18 year old?
    2
  30. In the original video she talks to two people. Sam conveniently leaves this out.
    2
  31. Liberals love the movie American Pie which said you are a loser if you don't have sex before you graduate High School, but then they cry that High Schoolers are children when its convenient.
    2
  32. So you don't believe the gender ideology leads to people dealing in outrageous double standards about informed consent? You have a lot to learn. Just 5 below your own user portmantologist just said "Honestly, I'd have a hard time understanding the outrage even if the hospital were willing to do the operation on a 16-year-old with their parents' consent" with 31 upvotes.
    2
  33. No, if anyone Sam Seder should be sued for libel. He completely left out the second half of the audio, when Chara is transferred and a second staff member confirms what the operator said.
    2
  34. All your favorite countries (Germany, Canada, etc.) have ages of consent 16 and below. In Sweden and Norway it’s 15. It’s so nauseating to see libs feign outrage on this issue. (Not that Matt was even saying you should be having underage sex)
    2
  35. Also, saying it’s a social construct is absolutely right and everyone here knows it. 18 as the age of adulthood is completely arbitrary and has no basis in biology, which is why no society in the entire world had it as a cut off for adulthood prior to the industrial age. That’s simply a fact. It’s as arbitrary as the drinking age or a speed limit and no intellectually honest person can deny that. Am I against speed limits? No. But I know they’re arbitrary numbers.
    2
  36. Girls on average have their periods at 12.5, I don't know why everyone is talking about periods in a discussion about 16 year olds. Also if you consider marrying anyone under 18 a "child marriage" then no, child marriage were everywhere prior to the mid-20th century. Annie Oakely married at 16 to 30 year old she met at a shooting competition, for instance.
    2
  37. Don't bastardize the term 'pedophilia'. Peodphilia is sex with prepubescent children. No society on Earth put any meaning on the magical number of 18 until the industrial age, and there are no biological milestones that happen at that age. Turning one of the worst acts you can commit into something as arbitrary as the drinking age is so unbelievably depraved and disgusting. Is a High School kid who's attracted to his peers a pedophile? No. And don't tell me that's because minors can't be pedos. Just recently there was an episode on Doctor Phil about a 15 year old pedophile.
    2
  38.  @MossMothMyBeloved  What I said about Bigchungus, ditto for you.
    2
  39.  @barbiquearea  Age of consent wasn't that high until the early 20th century. The first age of consent law in England, in 1275, set it at 12.
    2
  40.  @amyh3223  Alll the countries you love so much and want the US to emulate have ages of consent 16 and younger (Denmark, Canada, Sweden, etc.). The left has always been strangely silent about that.
    2
  41. It's teaching children self-worth to tell them they're born n the wrong body?
    2
  42. All the countries you love so much and want the US to emulate (Canada, Denmark, Sweden) have ages of consent 16 and lower and you leftists never make a peep about that.
    2
  43.  @alondvorkin2762  More like you're political opportunists who don't actually care about this issue and will flip-flop your stance on it depending on whether you want it to be used as a political cudgel.
    2
  44. Israel offered Palestine its own state 5 times.
    2
  45. All the left's favorite countries (Canada, Sweden, Denmark, Germany) have ages of consent 16 or under of course you all are totally silent on that. That's because you don't really care about underage people having sex, its just a political weapon for you.
    2
  46.  @oxman5571  time stamp 35:42 Ep. 1010 of the Matt Walsh so, the second person says yes
    2
  47.  @dadbodenvy4247  The website says they don't. If someone says "I'm not a drug dealer" on their Facebook Page, and then you call them up asking if they have crack for sale and they say yes, which do you believe?
    2
  48. Because Matt is a freaking political pundit, that's why. His job is talk about political issues.
    2
  49.  @sarban1653  Everyone cowers behind the magical number of "18" to answer that question, until a minor commits a crime. Then they pound their fist demanding a 15 year old be tried as an adult.
    2
  50. A hysterectomy is one the most life altering decisions you can make. If that decision is opened to a 16 year old, why shouldn't ANY decision be opened to a 16 year old? I cannot believe I actually have to explain this.
    2
  51. Although I'm not fond of the idea of impregnating 16 year olds, and I'm sure Matt Walsh isn't today if he ever was, society needs to have a serious conversation about how it treats those we used to call "young adults." Youth suicide, 13 - 25, is at an all time high. "Teenage angst" is starting to extend into the early 20s and for 99% of human history, teenage angst was not a thing. Teenagers were stereotyped as happy-go-lucky, in fact. Why? Because nature wanted them to be adults, and that's how they were treated. For all of human history until K-12 was introduced, adolescence was adulthood. Pre-industrial societies like tribal societies in the Amazon still operate this way. We need to recognize adolescence is, at best, a necessary evil. Instead, we're expanding this evil more and more. I'm passionate about this because I grew up a pampered rich kid who didn't get his first job until 23. When I met another guy with an identical upbringing, it was like a meeting of kindred spirits. We both felt the same way: our upbringing held us back, made us immature for our age, and seriously impeded our development as members of adult society. If you treat someone as a child, they'll be a child indefinitely.

  52. If you watch the whole video, the operator does transfer her and she's told the same thing. I can't believe Sam Seder would be so blatantly disingenuous.

  53. There is simply nothing lower than a liberal. Not a Nazi, not a Communist, not ISIS. Nothing.

  54. I'm sure just about every single person knows what he really meant. Leftism is all about willful blindness and intellectual dishonesty.

  55.  @pacipwincess  He meant even if sex between two parties is voluntary, it can still be immoral.

  56.  @pacipwincess  You know what he means, don't play dumb.

  57. I'm still floored by the lows the left will stoop to. Will their evil EVER come back to bite them in the ass? It's like they could boil babies alive and half the country would still vote Democrat.

  58. He was 23 when he said this. He's 37 now.

  59. You are the ones sexualizing hugs from grandpa you sickos.

  60.  @E-M-3-T  How can you deny its natural? Mother nature makes you fertile, and gives you a sex drive...if having sex and getting pregnant at that age isn't natural, what on God's Green Earth does "natural" even mean to you? Now granted, I'm not saying that makes it okay, because the whole point of civilization is to transcend nature, but how on Earth could any intellectually honest person deny its natural?
    1
  61.  @E-M-3-T  They've only been doing just that since the beginning of human history. For 99% of human existence most people had their first kid before 25. Heck Alexander the Great was conquering the world at 16. Alexander Hamilton was running his own shipping company at 14. And yet no one can be a parent until they're 25? We are always at a stage of mental development. Ask a middle aged person if they are much more wise and mature today than they were at 25 and they'll say yes.
    1
  62.  @E-M-3-T  Also its funny you are Christian because traditional Jewish culture, which Jesus would have been using as a reference point for talking about children and adults, defined a 12 year old female and 13 year old male as adults.
    1
  63. Periods on average happen at 12, not 16.
    1
  64. No its not, its truth. America was very focused on reconciliation at the end of the Civil War. This is simple, historical fact. And funny enough, everyone recognizes this as the right attitude when its applied to our enemies in WWII. But when it comes to your fellow country men, you get hard thinking about mass executions (even though you cry about us waterboarding Al Qaeda operatives for life saving information and nuking Japan to prevent an invasion that would have killed millions).
    1
  65. All your favorite countries you want the US to emulate so bad, Canada, Denmark, Sweden, have ages of consent of 16 or less. You lefties never make a peep about that. Cut the disingenuous melodrama.

  66. You can watch the full phone call. The operator DOES transfer her and the second person also confirms they perform surgery on minors.

  67. Funny how the left is always anti-war, except when it comes to killing their fellow countrymen. In all other circumstances basic rights are just arbitrary Western constructs that are not worth bloodshed.

  68.  @nikrose5229  All the countries you love so much and want the US to emulate (Canada, Sweden, Denmark) have ages of consent 16 and lower and yet people like you never make a peep about that. Cut the disingenuous melodrama.

  69. Yes, because sexualizing 16 year olds is totally on the same level as the left sexualizing 6 year olds. Everyone know you are toddler until your 18th birthday then you the adulthood fairy taps you on your head and you get the wisdom of Confuscious overnight, and can suddenly take out a $200,000 loan, join the army, adopt a child, and decide the leader of the free world.

  71. Most people don't want to work another goddamn year no matter what their ages. Guess what? Economics is not about what you want and don't want. It's what works and what doesn't work. And right now we have about 1/3rd of our population (minors and elders) depenedent on the other 2/3rds. That's historically unprecedented.

  72. I bet you loved the movie American Pie which said you are loser if you don't lose your virginity before graduating High School.

  73.  @davidstorrs  The prevailing view on the left is that trans-women are women. Period. Full stop. End of sentence. Anything made for "women" has to include trans-women or change its name.

  74. There's nothing more sickening than leftists pretending they have moral compasses. You've been the indiscriminate supporters of the worst autocrats in human history since WWII, as long as they were anti-American. YOu chant the slogans of history's greatest murderer, Mao Tse Tung, (who enslaved far more people than the Confederacy) with glee. I still remember a book in my college titled "Half The Sky" with smiling young women on the cover. Heck, Anita Dunn said he and Mother Teresa were her two favorite thinkers. UC Berkley students cheered the ISIS flag but jeered the Israeli flag when Ami Horowitz tried waving both on their campus. The New York Times won the Pulitzer prize for covering up Stalin's genocide and never returned it. You called the victims of 9/11 Little Eichmans and the progenitors of ISIS "freedom fighters". You idolize Castro, flew over to be human shields for Saddam. You make movies glorifying the Dahomey, the last hold out against Europe's war on slavery. The one and only reason you're not siding with Russia in the Ukraine conflict is because you think Russia likes Trump. If Confederacy had been anyone other than their fellow countrymen, not only would you want reconciliation, you'd demand the Union pay reparations for all the damages done during the war. Because any other group that kills US soldiers instantly becomes your heroes.

  75. No, you're the groomers for things like The All Ages Sex Shop, Sexy Summer Camp, BDSM Teddy Bears, etc.

  76. Tell that to your progressives idols in Scandinavia, Canada, etc. where the age of consent is 16 and under. People like you and the leftists that live there never make a peep about that.

  77. "So the same guy who sat there and organized violence against children’s hospitals that offer gender affirming care" What factophobic nonsense. "thinks it’s normal to be a pedo?" Stop bastardizing the term pedophilia. You're taking one of the worst crimes you can commit against someone and making it into something as arbitrary as the drinking age. That's so unbelievably disgusting. Pedophilia is sex with prepubescent children. Or do you honestly think puberty happens for no reason and then some magical, invisible, completely indetectable switch flips at 18?
    1
  78.  @CrystalFox25  Those statistics show those problems exist on a J-curve. A teenager is more likely to, for example, die during child birth than a 22 year old, but a 35 year old is more likely to die during birth than a teenager. A teenager is more likely to give birth to a child with down syndrome than a 20 year old, but a 26 year old is more likely to give birth to a child with Downes Syndrome than a teenager. Etc.

  79. Most people on the left just don't care about anything but getting back at their parents for making them sit through church. They never stop to think about what they're actually supporting, or whether the people they listen to are actually being honest.
    1
  80. Clearly not. He said it was an example of how something can be consensual but still very wrong. Every single person here knows what he means. He's using "consensual" in the most typical sense of the word, ie something that's not forced or involuntary.
    1
  81. For most of human history, this is how it worked. Most people died before retirement. When Social Security was first invented, the life expectancy was 64. Now we spend about 1/3rd of our lives (first as minors, then as elders) being taken care of by someone else. That's unprecedented in human history.
    1
  82. While I don't endorse impregnating 16 year olds, if you were impregnated at 16 you'd be raising a baby at 17 and a toddler at 18. Also I don't think anything should be restricted to a person after 18. Drinking age should be 18+
    1
  83. Christ alive, why does the left struggle so much with the concept of dry humor? Matt Walsh also said he found his wife collapsed on the couch in tears because she didn't feel supported by the Green M&M. Do you think that was serious too?
    1
  84. Which would be more traumatizing, waking up and finding you have a B-cup instead of an A-cup, or waking up and finding you have no breasts at all? Stop with this nihilism. Saying its all the same because they're just children is like saying feeding a dog bacon and feeding a dog anti-freeze is the same because its just a dumb animal either way.

  85.  @E-M-3-T  Until they commit a crime, then you pound your fists demanding they be tried and sentenced as adults.
    1
  86.  @E-M-3-T  I think 15 is too young for consent to sex, but I understand it's more complicated than "they're children". I'm just saying don't cower behind "They're children" line. It's not a law of nature that a 15 year old is a child, if anything the opposite is true since no society in the entire world considered someone 15 or older a child before the industrial age. This sick, superstitious faith in the magical number of 18 has done serious damage to American society. A better argument would be "How can you consent when you're not even old enough to be trusted behind the wheel."
    1
  87. The fact that people think Matt Walsh, the same guy who said he found his wife collapsed on the couch in tears because she didn't feel supported by the Green M&M, i serious about a translucent mermaid, makes me wish the asteroid would come sooner.

  88. 1) He was 23 when he said those things 2) All your favorite countries (Canada, Germany, Sweden, Denmark) have ages of consent 16 or lower, and you'll never ever ever hear progressives make a peep about that, even if they live in those countries. So I don't believe for a second your outrage is genuine.
    1
  89. You guys are so disingenuous. I think just about everyone here knows what Matt really meant. He was new to punditry at this time and not good with words, but by saying it was consenual he meant it didn't involve force. He still said it was very bad.

  92. Prager U never denied the Civil War was fought over slavery. But the fact is, the country was extremely forgiving and eager to forgive the South after the war ended and promote reconciliation. Of course we know Sam Seders fanbase gets a hardon at the thought of killing their fellow country men, so while they cry about us waterboarding Khalid Sheik Mohammed for information, and how mean we were for nuking Japan to end WWII, and glorify the slavery loving Dahomey and it's King Gezo, I'm sure they wish the Civil War had been followed by mass executions.

  96. Oh please, I think I'm going to puke. You don't see the difference between 6 and 16? Half the country loses their virginity before 18 and that doesn't bother you in the slightest. I wouldn't be surprised if you loved the movie American Pie which said you are a loser if you don't have sex before graduating High School. 16 year olds are regularly tried as adults, and literally no society on the entire planet considered a 16 year old a child prior to the introduction of K-12 education.
    1
  97. You sickos are the ones sexualizing a hug from your grandpa. If you weren't, you wouldn't make a child "consent" such a big deal. You don't worry about "consent" when you tell a child to clean their room, eat their vegetables, brush their teeth, etc.
    1
  98. 🤮I'm 100% sure if the Confederacy was anyone other than a collections of foreign US states you'd cry we were too harsh on them and should pay them reparations for all the cities and farms the Union burned down. You cry about us nuking Japan to avoid an invasion that would have killed millions. You cry about us waterboarding Al Qaeda operatives for life saving information. You make movies glorifying the armies of King Gezos, who was Africa's Jefferson Davis. Yet when it comes to your own countrymen, you're out for blood? Funny how that works, we all know what leftism is really about.

  99. "Back in the day" life was much simpler. Parenthood was basically baby sitting. You didn't have to make tough financial or medical decisions, and you just had to the life your mother/father lived, that you observed and participated in, during all the prior years of your life. Things weren't easier, 2/3rds of all kids died before reaching age four, but more was out of your control, and the less freedom you have the less life demands your capacity to make decisions.

  100. Wouldn't make a difference. Modern public education is just as biased as anything those channels would make for kids.

  104.  @Nagisa9397  Were you into 16 year olds when you were 16? Yes you were. So according to your own logic you were a pedophile at 16, and don't tell me "Well no because minors can't be pedophiles" because everyone knows that can be. Just look up the bit "Parents fear their 15 year old son is a pedophile" on Dr. Phil. Just STFU and stop being so disingenuous you weasel. No one has a sex drive calibrated around a 20th century definition of adulthood. If you are honestly not attracted to 16 year olds, then its certainly you who is the pedophile, since actual pedophiles will always say they're not into kids 12 and up. Just watch the interviews with "Non-Offending Pedophiles" on VICE.
    1
  105. Yes, how dare they showcase the historical truth that the Union was extremely forgiving to the South and the country wanted reconciliation rather than revenge. That's your attitude whenever the enemy in war isn't your fellow countrymen. Heck, you'd demand the Union pay reparations to the CSA for burning down its farms and cities if it hadn't been composed of US states. You cried when we waterboarded Al Qaeda operatives, insisted on a proper burial for Osama Bin Laden, and labeled nuking Japan (which avoided an invasion that would have killed millions) as the greatest crime of the century.

  108. Or simply because they thought they were ready for it, the way Alexander Hamilton was to run a shipping company at 14, George Washington was ready to start his own surveying company at 15, Alexander the Great was ready to start conquering the world at 16, Julius Ceasar was ready to be a patriarch of his family at 16, etc. Teenagers today are immature, but how much of that is due to the coddled environment we raise them in? We're seeing teenage angst and dysfunction bleeding into the early 20s now.

  109.  @nurifidei4056  Also because children were already contributing to their families, they had a much greater understanding of the adult world by the time they turned, let's say, 13. For most of human history, the typical person was a farmer. As a child, you worked on your family's farm, as an adult worked on your own farm. In other words you'd be preparing for your adult life since you were a a small child. These days children live in a completely different world from adults.

Of course you'd never support the hanging of every Chinese father who'd bound his daughter's feet before the British made it illegal, or every Dahomey who had participated in slave raids before the Europeans had put a stop that it, or every Aztec priest who had sacrificed someone to the Gods. Because that was "just their culture", right? Heck I'm sure you cried when we waterboarded Al Qaeda operatives for information.

  113.  @carlavandermeer9732  "He is thinking of the days when kids that age HAD to get married and couldn't get out of it. They had child after child and were miserable, No 16 is ready in any way to be a mother. " That's an extremely bigoted assumption. Look at Annie Oakely. She married at 16, but at that time had become so wildly successful in her career she'd already paid off her mother's mortgage. She was in no way forced into it. Caterina Sforza married when she was 14 and loved her husband so much that when he died she had the entire Orsi family wiped out in retribution in a matter of weeks. I'm not saying I think 16 is a good year to get married, at least not in this day and age, but why would you assume no one could be happily married at that age even in time's past? By the way, you want to talk about young people being miserable, look up the suicide rates we have today.

  116. Matt may not have phrased it the best way, he was still young and new to punditry, but there are 7.1 billion people, and deep down every one of them agrees with Matt Walsh. There is nobody, I really mean nobody, who thinks having sex with a teenager that would be "consenual" if not for his/her age, is morally equivalent to sex that is forced. Nobody. Just to show I can prove this, not that I need to: Sex with an unconscious body is an equal crime to violent rape (some would say lesser but we'll ignore those people for simplicity's sake). Sex with an 18 year old is not a crime. A 15 year old boy is much closer in sapience to an 18 year old than an unconscious body. Even animals, who are dumber than two years olds, are not understood to be abused by being allowed to be sexual active. Yet certainly anyone would argue that an animal who's pinned down and trying to get away while being raped is being abused. So that means even when dealing with a mind as primitive and uniformed as an animal's, "yes" still means something.

  122. It means its inline with our biological imperatives. What are our biological imperatives? Nutrition. Reproduction. Etc. That's why, for example, having an orgasm feels good (you are spreading your seed, a necessary part of reproduction) but hammering a nail into your balls feels bad (you are decreasing your odds of spreading your DNA, going against your reproductive imperative). If mother nature wants you to do something, like reproduce in your teenage years, why would she traumatize you for doing it? I think that's what people are trying to say.

Ask the police who arrest predators for sticking their hands down children's pants should just obsessing over people's genitalia? Ask the judge who sentenced Catherine Becker to life in prison for castrating her husband. I'm obsessed with people's genitals for the same reason they are. Though I struggle to believe you even care one way or another, what you say is completely factophobic. Matt Walsh even got a doctor to admit she performed a vaginoplasty on a 16 year old in his documentary.

  128.  @MofosOfMetal  Actually Lancet Medical Journal says birth mortality by age is "J-Shaped", so why a 16 year old is more likely to die giving birth than a 20 year old, a 20 year is old more likely to die giving birth than, say, a 28 year old. Same with genetic disorders. 20 - 24 are the golden years of reproduction, but 14 - 19 are the silver years.

Matt Walsh interviews a doctor who confirms she performed a vaginoplasty on a 16 year old in What Is A Woman.

  133. That's actually a question the world should be asking. There's a lot of cognitive dissonance on this issue. The same people who will want you lynched for sleeping with a 16 year old girl will pound their fists demanding she be tried as an adult if she commits a crime. Our current definition of legal adulthood is totally arbitrary disconnected from biology. There are no biological milestones that happen at 18.

  134. It's morally right when your progressive idols in Canada, Sweden, and Denmark do it.

  135. I guess conservatives hate young people to because most of them don't want to work but guess what? Economics is about what creates a functioning society, not what you "want." We more than 1/3rd of our lives dependent on others in modern society, first as minors, then as elders. That's unprecedented in human history and not sustainable.
    1
  136. This is so disingenuous. Matt was simply thinking of consent in the conventional sense, ie absent of force. He still said what happened was very bad, he just was new to punditry at this time so he wasn't aware how people usually use the term "consent" in this context.

  140. ​ @alondvorkin2762  Christ alive, what's wrong with you? Bernie Sanders, the archetypal leftwing politician in America, says he supports the Scandinavian model. So there's your non-socialist leftist, although he self-identifies as a socialist.

  141.  @alondvorkin2762  Look you scrambled brained child, you said: 1) "most socialists consider the nordic model's social democracy a straight up betrayal of left wing values since while it improves life for the people living under it" 2) Then you said all leftists are socialists. Yet you know that very few people would share the sentiment you claimed "most socialists" believe. So socialists, and by extension leftists, must refer to a very narrow group of people. So that's your defense, in order to defend the left, you narrow the "left" down to a tiny group of people that would likely exclude hosts of this channel and 90% of the people who support it. What a cowardly, disingenuous way to deflect criticism.

  142.  @alondvorkin2762  I can't prove a negative, ssabmud. You need to prove it. Show me this channel, The Young Turks, Gravel Institute, etc. expressing such a view. Again, you defend "the left" by shrinking the left down to a tiny demographic.

  148.  @mjtruth1039  1) Because they are living an existence at war with their biology. What's your explanation, because they're discriminated against? Where else do you see this colossal suicide rate among "oppressed" demographics? No where. In fact white males, supposedly the apexes of privilege, have the highest suicide rate. 2) BS, older people are just as affirmed/celebrated/tolerated as much as younger people if not more so. Do you really think its easier to be a trans teen than a trans 30 year old in the work pace, considering how much children bully each other for being different?

Hell, if the Confederacy had been composed of a foreign nation, rather than US states, you'd be wearing the Confederate Flag like a Che Guevera shirt. Hating America is all you know. And no, I have no sympathy for the Confederate cause. But I also know you leftists have no moral compass. You've been the relentless apologists for tyranny, terrorism, and autocracy since the end of WWII.

  171. He's absolutely right. No biological milestone happens at 18. It's pure superstition. No society on all of planet Earth recognized it as a cut off for adulthood until around 100 years ago. Bar Mitzvahs mark you as a man at 13, Quinceaneras mark you as a woman at 15, etc.

The Democrat Party, even before the Civil Rights movement, was still the party of Woodrow "A conservative is a man who just sits and thinks, mostly just sits" Wilson and FDR. The Republican Party was the party of Calivin Coolidge, who said "To tax anymore than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery." It's funny because you progressives still hold up pre-1960s Republicans as examples of the evil of conservatism, like Joseph McArthy and Herbert Hoover, while insisting our party was leftwing.

  197. He's saying you shouldn't sexualize a hug from your grandfather you sicko. A kid's consent doesn't matter when you tell them to brush their teeth, clean their rooms, etc. So the only reason you think it should apply to hugging grandpa is if you are sexualizing hugs from grandpa.

Hell, many of the viewers of this channel are no doubt from those countries themselves, and are always conspicuously mum when this issue comes up.

  215. Many on the left believe white people are 1) born with a unique, biological predisposition to evil 2) can inherit sins from their ancestors 3) can be spited at random intervals due to number 1 & 2. The way they spat on the Queen's grave over crimes committed decades before she was born prove this. That's why its important to bring up everyone else's crimes.
