“Destroying World Views” - Cultural Commentator SHREDS The Myth Of Civil Debate

Andrew, when I look at your eyes and I see you in different things or even when you walked in here, you have a you have a look. Your eyes have a look and there's rage behind it. Okay. That's the look you have. Why do you have that look? >> Rage. >> Yeah. You have rage. There is like there is a a certain look where you know it looks you're skeptical always and you have rage and a look that you trust nobody. >> Well, maybe maybe to an extent. Um I in this industry you can't trust anybody. You I mean you you probably know that well. I've I've noted that there have been many many hit pieces on you. The more famous Oh yeah. >> And the more famous you get, the more they'll be. >> Same [clears throat] here. I have tons and tons on me as well. >> And um one of the few [clears throat] people in this industry that I do trust, you probably know Steven Crowder, right? Um I saw what these people did to him. I saw what they did to him and I saw what the people who are supposedly on my side did to him. I call them the sewing circle Christians. And uh these people do uh basically keep me in a continuous state of rage. And the reason why is this. It's like um I'm sure you've heard the uh Teddy Roosevelt, you know, the man in the arena speech, right? You know, that's what a guy like Crowder was and is the man in the arena. Just everybody's a critic, you know? And I remember when that video came out uh that they, you know, they spread it everywhere. His en his political enemies, his ex ex-wife, all of them just spread it everywhere, right? Ah, he's an abuser. He's a this, he's a that. And I'm like, I remember watching that video and thinking, that ain't even that bad. That ain't even that bad. >> In the backyard of the house. >> I was like, man, I've been in worse fights than that with my with my old lady. What are you talking about? Right. [laughter] >> I actually agree. >> Yeah. I was like, I've been a worse fight is that with my old lady over way less >> over way le way more petty stuff, you know what I mean? >> And it's like uh >> and the thing is is like all these holier than thou people >> this guy this clip. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. We've all seen this. >> Yeah. And this all these holier than thou sewing circle Christians are like, "How could you endorse an abuser? How could you defend an abuser? How could you do this?" And I'm thinking, "Shut up, you lying snake." Like there's no way you're going to convince me that in the course of your relationship of 20 years that if we had cameras on you at all times, we're not going to find this moment times 20. >> It's going to happen. Just shut up. >> 100%. >> Yeah. Just shut up. Stop bullshitting me. You know what I mean? But the thing is is um a lot of those people who are the critics, let's say in your case, my case, Crowder's case, many others, a lot of that I think comes from a position of jealousy. And it comes from a position of um of envy. And because of that, you know, these people, all they do is criticize. But my challenge has always been to the sewing circle Christians. Well, where are you? Like I'm on the other end of the most diabolical people daily. I'm in the most hostile environments, the most hostile panels, right? I'm always completely surrounded. I've never seen any of you. Where the hell are you? Well, you're siding with our enemies because I'm too mean or Crowder's too mean or anybody who defends themselves is too mean. Why don't you show us how it's done? And they're nowhere. They're nowhere. In many ways, I respect leftists who will engage on their ideology, right, and engage on the arguments much more than I respect my own side of the uh of which has many of these sewing circle Christians who refuse to engage, but instead just want to virtue signal to the audience, no, no, no, I'm a real Christian. You would never hear me say something so nasty and evil to a diabolical person who just told me they killed three of their kids in the womb, you know? [laughter] And I'm like, what? I'm supposed to sit there and go, "Oh, well, okay then. Let me let me pat you on the head and read gospel. That doesn't work. You have to destroy world views before you can replace world views." >> Yeah. Stephen called me the day this was released. It could have been the day or the next day. and he says, "Hey, I just want to tell you here's what's going to release was already released. This is what really happened." I'm listening to him for 45 minutes and the call-in's like this. I said, "Stephen, you will never hear hear me comment on this." I said, "We're not commenting on this kind of stuff." You know, Rob and I talked about it. Rob, if you remember, we're doing podcast prep. I'm like, "This is really not a topic I want to talk about. Marriage is hard. People got to figure it out." Of course, if it's like, you know, someone shot and killed or something like that, okay, we have to comment on that. But an argument like this, let them handle it the way. I thought it got out of control and it wasn't a a uh uh um it became too much of a thing cuz it it was around the same time that he was negotiating the contract >> with uh uh what do you call it? With Daily Wire, right? >> And where he came out and he read the contract and what they offered him and all this stuff that we commented on. And I said, "Look, you know, when you do something like that, it I would be hesitant to ever make an offer to you because then it's kind of like, are you going to go share my contract with them publicly?" But Crowder to me, he's a guy that >> Well, they Jeremy Boring and those people at Daily Wire shouldn't have been trying to negotiate with his ex-wife on the side. >> We we we we reacted to that god knows how many times. And then trust me, I don't think uh uh anybody in the market would say, you know, we are best friends with Jeremy Boring and Ben Shapiro and Ben Shapiro loves us and and you know, it's like no, I've been on his show. He's been on my show. We invited him. He's canceled a couple times. Jeremy Boring's been on. We've had good convers actually. Jeremy Boring, we had a very good conversation together. >> But I don't know when the whole Candace thing that was taking place, everybody thought Candace is automatically going to come here. They blamed us for, you know, this is what's going to No, no. I'm on the phones. I'll help you. I'll help you. I'll help you. you know, our our uh our enemy is on the outside. My my you know, sometime the distractions. Can you can you tell me while you're going through this? What do you mean by did you call it sewing circle Christians that got three abortions? >> Well, who are you talking about? >> Well, on my side of the aisle, most critics, right? Because I engage often times my argument style starts and ends with Christian ethics. That's always the viewpoint that I'm coming from whether I'm debating politics or I'm debating social issues or I'm debating any of these things. That's my grounded foundation. So most of my criticisms don't actually come from leftist though many of them do. They actually come from a particular brand of Christian and they I don't know if what you would say maybe um virtue signalers, right? They're always trying to signal their virtues and it's always like, "Oh my god, you smoke you smoke cigarettes or ah you drink beer. Real Christians don't drink beer." Like it's pett always petty criticisms. But anytime there's controversy around me or a clip taken out of context or something like this, these are the first people to rush in and give me universal condemnation mostly so that my enemies will look at them. And these are leftists, right? They want leftists to look at them and think, "You're the good Christians." And it's like the whole time, so in other words, the whole time these people are burning the whole forest down around our ears, right? And I say, "Hey, put those matches down." That, "Hey, don't say the f- word." >> I'm like, "Well, wait, we got a bigger problem here. We got a bigger problem here." Nope. You said the f- word. >> Yeah. >> That's no good. >> Yeah. >> And so those people to me are like the lowest of the low of the low. >> Well, I mean, if you want specific names, >> specific names, if you're comfortable saying, who are some of them? So, I would say people like uh Llaya Rose, representatives like Llaya Rose, I would even say uh you know reps like Trent Horn, people like this. These are people who they themselves may not necessarily levy the criticism directly, but it's the influence that they have over the various audiences that they have that then go and direct these criticisms towards you. Got it? Though I never actually see these people in the arena debating these social issues with anybody. They'll do abortion debates, things like this, but I never see them surrounded with a a panel of like the worst degenerates on earth debating all of their worldviews simultaneously, but they have tons of criticisms for people who do. And I'm like, well, where are you? Nowhere. And where are you, by the way, when anybody wants to debate you on uh why it is that you're so inactive when it comes to the culture war and social issues, right? They turn all that stuff down. They refuse to argue with the red pillars. They refused to argue with any of these people. They literally just refused to engage. Tons of criticisms. Absolute refusal to engage. Got it. So, Llaya Rose, one time I was on her show. This was about a year, year and a half ago and she we were talking about I don't know how abortion came about and I just kind of gave my view and then she disagreed and went back and forth. I'm like, okay. Yeah. And and uh it's very obvious. She's like the the the fully fully goody two shoe like everything I do right that's what it is. >> But to me I think there's a place for her as well. But guys like you you know >> uh to to become you. You have to have lived a shitty life to get tough and be willing to go in the arena and be able to handle it. You just have to >> I agree. You you have to have lived a very very rough life. And you don't just say, "Let me raise kids and make their life a living hell to raise a Andrew Wilson." That's not how it works. You go have a a a very very difficult upbringing. You got this pain, this callous, this all this stuff that you've carried and then boom, and you're like in in fight mode and fight like what's the next one? Who's the next one? That's not for everybody. You can't train her to be like you. I agree. >> Yeah. So, so, but I think there's a place for both of you guys. So, >> and I I even agree with that. What I don't agree with is if you're not willing to do it, shut your mouth and don't criticize then. >> Got it. So, if you're not willing to get in the arena, don't react and don't give your thoughts on what Andrew Wilson believes. >> That's right. If you're not willing to do it yourself, and here's the thing. I've always had an open challenge. >> It's never going to stop. The reaction audience is that's that's a business model. >> Look, I totally get it and I understand that this is something I I'll always have to deal with. Y >> but I can't say well it's done then hey many times we put the offers out then you come in show me show me how you would do it better and then we watch him fail and flop over and over and over again it's not as easy as it looks as you know >> of course and by the way a guy like Steven Crowder the the same way he had a bad fall he can make a massive comeback and be the main guy again >> at one point I think he was the main guy no wasn't Crowder like the guy. >> Mhm. Oh, yeah. He was a guy. He's coming back. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I'm so glad he's coming back. I'm so glad like he's >> You can see the eyes that the eye of the tiger is back in it. Like you you can tell you're saying you're taking some credit. >> I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm I'm kidding. I'm literally kidding. >> He's going to call you and he's going to say something like, "What are you doing?" Uh, no. I think um I've told Stephen that I think that that he's wasted. Um and you know that he he does best. The thing is with him, and I completely understand it, uh, you know, he's built he's built a mode around himself, you know what I mean? And it's like, but that's not where you shine, man. >> You shine in that arena, engaging, you know, coffee. >> Yeah. Fighting it out like you're He's really good at it. >> He's had tons and tons of guests coming in now >> and he's duking it out with them, >> right? And he's doing it in the Steven Crowder way, right? It's both respectful and it's insightful, >> sarcastic, and he has to have all that. >> Yeah. And it's fun to watch and he's a super smart guy.
