hello everyone welcome to this year in stupid 2017 so a huge amount actually happened this year and that makes covering it all in this recap quite a difficult job so there are a couple of subjects I'm going to leave out in general for future videos in which I'll go into them in far more depth then I can reasonably do here the first one will be brexit because a lot happened and I want to go through it in a methodical manner and the second one is going to be most of the Harvey Weinstein accusations I'll only be touching on those on a surface level but I'll go into those a lot more deeply in future videos because it's it's been a total shit show anyway speaking of total shit shows let's begin let's start in January 2017 where a black lives matter anti-trump protests in Seattle where they decided that they just need to simply start killing people in a video that has since been taken down an activist associated with black lives matter to the megaphone to voice her support for among other things killing people and killing the White House and while she said that's another protest that can be heard saying burn it she also says white people give all your fucking money your fucking house your fucking property we need it fucking all as another protestor responds reparations fuck white supremacy fuck the US Empire fuck your imperialist ass lives that shit gotta go if there's anyone left with a shred of doubt as to the kind of people that are being attracted to black lives matter let's be utterly disabuse you of those notions these are the problems in black lives matter that have to be fixed and they simply won't be on the plus side though it looks like black lives matter as well and truly run out of steam at this point I really don't see them getting anything else done and black lives matter deciding to simply ban white people from their meetings is probably not going to help them grow their movement I think that 2017 really was the year the black lives matter died and in my opinion that's a very good thing because black lives matter seems to have been a manifestation of the very worst elements of the far left and black identity politics if you identify as a person of the African Diaspora you can attend our meetings have become a member if not you can support us in other ways because now you're going to become a second-class citizen but don't worry it's okay this is just what Malcolm X would have done and Malcolm X wasn't a kind of racial ideologue who hated white people or anything he was a really level-headed guy on the 13th of April 2017 The Huffington Post published a blog called could it be time to deny white men the franchise and initially they stood by this blog and the augment contained therein which I'm just going to summarize as absolute racist tripe but as you can see from this they did end up taking it down and why is that were they persuaded that maybe just maybe denying people the votes based on their race is wrong the answer is no that's not the reason they did it at all they've done this because the blog submission from an individual who called herself Shelly garland who claimed to be a master student at UC T cannot be traced and pays not to exist right so they got fucking tricked into writing racially divisive stuff posted it and stood by it but only took it down when it turned out they couldn't actually identify the author even more interesting though the huffington post South Africa which is one who published it is a signatory to and supporter of the South Africa press code we support free expression is limited by the following value set out in that code and they include the discrimination and hate speech except where it is strictly relevant to the matter reported and in the public interest to do so the media shall avoid discriminatory or denigrating references to people's race gender sex pregnancy male status ethnic or social origin color sexual orientation age disability rage conscience belief culture language and birth or other status except when it comes to white people when will fuckin stand by it and so at the bottom they say we apologize for the oversight we welcome future discussion oh yeah you were just trying to start a conversation when you how about if we just deny white men the franchise in the democracies that they built that sounds fair doesn't it there's nothing wrong with that or anything I mean it's not like any will be complaining of white men were like you know what we need to deny the franchise you know to black people let's talk about the universities and it's been a very interesting year at universities and not all bad either you get people like a doctor Chander press called Weinstein who says she's going to dismiss science conducted primarily by whites men because of course they're white men a physics researcher at the University of Washington says the controversial Google memo is just the latest example of shoddy science that is conducted primarily by white men that's something I just have taken a little bit of exception to the thing is the memo was not actually science it was referencing science and I don't know who it was primarily conducted by and it wasn't wrong in my opinion and the opinion of every single evolutionary psychologist I have spoken to on the subject and we're talking I think about six of them at this point from what I understand it was about 90% correct and what I say correct I mean technically correct the best kind of correct and not politically correct the kind of correct that this professor is looking for she says its 2017 current year and to some extent scientific literature still supports a patriarchal view that ranks a man's intellect above a woman's the facts don't matter the ideology matters Prescott Weinstein took issue with the contention related to her by a well-known scientist that the Google memo failed to constitute hostile behavior because it cited peer-reviewed articles that suggest women have different brains arguing that peer reviewed is not synonymous with correct no it's not but it is a way that we try and establish whether something has been checked by other scientists for scientific validity the fact that it's correct is what makes it correct I know that sounds rather tautological but I don't know how else to explain it if something is not incorrect then we call it correct just because you don't like the fact that there are innate biological differences between men and women doesn't mean that there are no innate biological differences between men and women and yes it does seem that there are studies that show that men and women's brains tend to differ in the way that they function which is why she's angry that she thinks that d'amour who she refers to as a Google bro relied on shoddy science to support a patriarchal view the ranks and man's intelligence of above a woman's that's not true if she'd actually read his fucking memo he doesn't say that all he said was there are different interests that men and women on average tend to have if Google wants to attract more women into its organization it would be sensible for Google to tailor itself to attract these people that is it he wasn't making comments on how intelligent or not women are in comparison to men he was just saying women have different motivations to men they in general find different things entertaining they wants to do different things of their lives and this is something that Google could take into account when trying to improve gender diversity at their company because ultimately d'amours memo was an attempt to get more women into Google but she was by far from the worst of the professor's currently operating academia for example this Trinity College professor who calls white people inhuman and suggests that we should just let them fucking die Trinity colleges Johnny Eric Williams social media feed after the June 14th shooting of Louisiana Republican Steve Scalise it is past time for racially oppressed people to do what people who believe themselves to be white will not do put an end to the vectors of their destructive mythology of whiteness and their white supremacy system hashtag let them fucking die the associate professor of sociology said on June the 18th in the series of Facebook posts now's the time to confront these inhuman assholes and end this now mr. Williams Facebook page also featured an anonymous article on medium accusing mr. Scalise of being a racist and one of the most anti LGBTQ politicians in Washington if you see white people drowning if you see them burning in a building if they are bleeding out in an emergency room if the ground is crumbling believe them if they are in a park and they turn their weapons on each other do nothing a June 16th article by son of Baldwin says let them fucking die and smile a bit when you do it's really difficult to think of a more hateful attitude towards white people from non-white people when you read this isn't it I mean the father must realize how this kind of radicalized racial hatred of black people towards whites is not going to win them any friend and it's really just going to make them into the tiny irrelevant rump movement that they are where they've kicked out all of their white allies and they're just screeching and shouting but how they should go around killing white people and why because all white people are racist and all men are sexist according to a Georgetown University law professor Preston Mitchum even told campus reform that simply being a part of any dominant group when it comes to race gender sexuality et cetera contributes to the oppression of other groups well then why would we ever change that if non-white people became a majority over white people then white people would be able to legitimately say well we have to fight the non-white people because they are inherently oppressing us I mean you can see the Marxism just dripping off of this can't you any of the dominant group is definitely oppressing the inferior group because there is literally no other way to visualize this you can't not be oppressing them and ultimately is that's an argument for anything other than segregation you can't have anything but segregation when you have this attitude which is presumably why the far-left are bringing back segregation and I had quite a large section about this in last year's this year in stupid and I'm not going to cover it nearly as much because honestly it's something I've covered enough but I just want to point out that yes they are still arguing for black and Muslim students to be segregated and yes they are still demanding no White's allowed safe spaces to plot social justice activism at least according to the college fix a student activist group at the University of Michigan is demanding a campus officials provide them with a permanent designated space on central campus for black students and students of color to organize and do social justice work the demand is one of several laws by students for justice who this month ratcheted up campus demonstrations to pressure administrators to cave complaining in a newly lost petition that president mark schlissel has snubbed their demands the clamor for segregated space for students of color to organize social justice efforts comes even as the public university builds a 10 million dollar Center for black students and others in the center of the campus what is it that they won't demand and the students themselves are quite happy to wear white puzzle pins to remind themselves of their white privilege don't worry you don't actually have to wear a special star on your lapel we know you're the Whitey's because of the color of your skin you may remember professor Brett weinstein who is something of a jordan peterson style hero after he decided to stand up to these racialized activists when they demanded a white people free day on their campus he turned around and said no despite the fact around 50 of them approached him and surrounded him and started yelling and screaming and chanting at him to intimidate him this was widely reported in the mainstream media in places like the New York Times what was becoming increasingly more obvious that there is no defending this behavior the professor's that are encouraging it all the students that are participating in it this is totally unacceptable especially when it turns out that Weinstein has a history of fighting racism he has personally stood up against racism and now he is being drummed out of his class because he's fucking white in 1987 he had stood up at the University of Pennsylvania against racism that he had been witness to and yet this is not good enough he is white and so he has to leave so at the end of this scandal when he ends up resigning and the college is forced to pay him half a million dollars all I can say is fucking good he deserves it he earned it for standing up against the racist hate mob who wanted to penalize him because of the color of his skin Bravo professor I wish more people would do the same because all its to defeat these social justice bullies is to tell them no which is why you've never heard of W Taylor revelry the third the president of the College of William and Mary in Virginia because he just told them to get fucked when they came to him with a list of demands literally saying I don't deal in demands the confrontation started when students brought their demands to a livestream meeting revelry minced no words he said I don't deal in demands I don't make demands of other people I don't expect to receive demands from other people I love to get suggestions recommendations strong arguments but when you approach other people with demand instead of their ears opening and the spirit being unusually receptive you get defensive walls erected so I think you all need to think about it in the end the students just gave the fuck up because he just was not taking their shit one student said we're students and we pay tuition to be here that's the reason we're able to write these demands another said so you have an issue with the way we're phrasing this I think you're missing the point we've tried to be nice it's not working so if you don't want to have issues on this campus that are affecting students of color then you have to listen to students of color when they tell you what this is what needs to happen so just so you're clear this is a power play they want control of the city this situation the campus around them based on their race and so Rev Lee later irritatedly pointed out I got color too I'm white the students impotently ranted and raved on Facebook and other social media platforms but he did not care but revelry did not give a damn one student said if you're wondering what speaking truth to power looks like this is it it's what's being censored looks like this is what white supremacy looks like this is what patriarchy looks like this is what condescension looks like this is what being told you your issues in your life don't matter looks like this is why we say black lives matter what because this guy won't let you bully him into submission if that's the sum total of black lives matter all I can say is mr. revelry Bravo Bravo Invo for example when Charles Murray tried speaking at a liberal arts college he was chased out by an angry mob of racist left winged students Murray says that when the bell curve came out I'd have lectures with lots of people chanting and picking with signs but it was always within the confines of the events and I was eventually able to speak I've never experienced anything like this because the demonstrations began conventionally enough with several hundred organized protesters packed into a lecture hall on Thursday chanting and holding signs they ended with Murray being forced to move his lecture and later being surrounded by an unruly mob of students and outside agitators as he tried to leave the campus according to witnesses and school administrators after swarming Murray a faculty member and a school official the protesters shouted profanities shoved members of the group and then blocked them from getting to a vehicle in a nearby parking lot witnesses said the confrontation was aggressive intimidating and unpredictable and felt like it was edging fried nearly close to outright violence and why wouldn't it these students have been utterly radicalized by their professors and think that they literally need to tear the system down and anyone who gets in their way is a violent oppressor that needs to be fought why fucking wouldn't it get frightening me close to outright violence and the thing is one female professor was injured by this mob and she says that she feared for her life listen to her accounts of this Murray and miss stanza tried to leave the campus to attend dinner with faculty and students from swarm by an angry mobs at least 20 protesters who wouldn't let them past I didn't see it happen but someone grabbed Allison's head just as someone else shoved her from another direction damaging muscles tendons and the face here in her neck he said that if it hadn't been for mr. stanza Middlebury spokesman bill Berger and two security guards keeping the mob at bay he would have been pushed to the ground miss Stanton wrote that most of the hatred was focused on mr. Murray at first until she grabbed his arm to make sure they stayed together one thug grabbed me by the hair and another shoved me in a different direction I noticed signs with expletives and my name on them for those of you who marched in Washington the day after the inauguration imagine being in a crowd like that only being surrounded by hatred rather than love I feared for my life once they made it to the car protestors surrounded the banging on all sides and the windows and rocking the car climbing onto the hood he said they were eventually followed by protestors to their first dinner location and had to move to a restaurant outside of Middlesboro holy fucking shit this has clearly gone too far and the thing is this is why it cost Ben Shapiro $600,000 for securities for him to appear at the University of Berkeley this year I mean that's ridiculous Ben Shapiro is a short Jewish conservative who says remarkably normal middle-of-the-road milk-toast conservative opinions and this is something that costs $600,000 now it's fucking absurd but on the plus side I have to point out as soon as the authorities actually get involved and I was personally at Berkeley this year as soon as the police are actually allowed to get involved as soon as they are actually allowed to prevent the radical left from starting violence the radical left backs down all that needs to happen is a firm hand has to be shown that's it and these people will back down but honestly there is no excuse for anything that is happening here there is no justification for it and it really has to stop and honestly if that means getting rid of these problem professors then it means getting rid of these problem professors which is why I was rather pleased to hear that George cigarillo Maher the white genocide professor from Drexel University has finally quit after December 31st 26:17 I will no longer work at Drexel University fucking good you can't simply be a professor and then say well you know I all I want Christmas is white genocide there's no problem with that I mean it's not like there aren't massive racial problems on these university campuses caused by far-left communist professors of which George is one owner that no problem at all and I don't want to see like hate mobs from the internet doing this I want to see the deans of the universities the presidents of the universities getting rid of these problem professors of their volition they are creating an environment that is unsustainable at your universities you must cut them loose if 2016 was the year that comics were fully taken over by social justice and it was as you can see by the pictures on the screen here one is the black female iron man reboots and the other one is a comic called Mockingbird you can't quite see it there but the t-shirt she's wearing says ask me about my feminist agenda and don't forget that Captain America the famous Nazi fighting comic book superhero ended up turning into a Nancy just just to give you an example of just how deeply the sjw's have infected radicalized and ruined comics but if 2016 was the year that sjw's took over the comic-book industry 2017 is the year that these chickens have come home to roost Marvel executive claims sales are down because of women and diversity holy fucking shit did this cause a shitstorm in the social justice community he literally said what we heard was that people didn't want any more diversity they didn't want female characters out there that's what we heard whether we believe it or not I don't know that's really true but that's what we saw in sales we saw the cells of any character that was diverse any character that was new our female characters anything that was not a core Marvel character people were turning their nose up against and that was difficult for us because we have lots of fresh new exciting ideas that we were trying to get out and nothing new really worked because honestly nobody wanted this kind of gender communist fucking propaganda being pumped into their faces and there were some unbelievably cringe-worthy examples such as the female for literally arguing against the patriarchy and claiming that feminism was not a four-letter word it could not have been more embarrassingly obvious what agenda they were trying to push and the public just was not interested of course the sjw's who are for some reason encountered as Marvel fans but we'll get to that soon are in an uproar of course as soon as Gabriel's comments hit social media he rapidly clarified because he was being fucking torn a new one he said let me be clear our new heroes are not going anywhere we are proud and excited to keep introducing unique characters to reflect new voices and new experiences into the Marvel Universe and yes that is a black spider-man just above just in case you were curious just in case you were wondering just what the fuck was going on and why do people reject the absolute perversion of the old counters that they enjoyed and I know you're thinking why can't they just create new characters and that's because social justice doesn't create anything it just co-opted and destroys it's a bleak week before Christmas for Marvel comics and writers and editors confirm on social media that many titles will indeed be ending in the months to come and it sure looks like Marvel's canceling both of its comics starring queer characters Marvel cancellations Captain Marvel female lead generation eggs are arguably women of color led America Chavez queer women of color led Hawkeye female led gwenpool female led Iceman gay male led really interestingly there are comics to sell really bad and still so stale shelves it turns out that social justice kills everything and unsurprisingly the retailer's themselves are taking Marvel's tasks over the SJW comic books at the New York Comic Con they aren't happy that Marvel are ruining their businesses as well objections kept being brought up and soon retailers would bring up the fact that Marvel now had female versions of characters instead of males with echoing shouts of from the crowd of retailers about not changing all the characters all at once which is something I've also heard Marvel executives themselves echo but things were getting tense this is what happens when social justice conquers a new industry after they routes the base of weaklings who don't even realize what makes their products good and now they are reaping the consequences too old a retailer started raising their voices arguing about how diversity does not work the words black ho ho and freaking females were used multiple times at which point other retailers started to boo those retailers in the route rooms that sell itself yeah but where's the lie there no one's ever given a shit about black gay or women characters in any way shape or form no one has a problem with any of them what they have is a problem with the agenda that has introduced these characters I don't recall people ever complaining about Wonder Woman but then Wonder Woman wasn't based on a sort of gender version of communism Wonder Woman was actually a startlingly liberal hero who was all about self empowerment and the empowerment of the individual and a game with any of these other characters but as soon as you start bringing in this aisle we're oppressed where this where that suddenly it doesn't work because put simply you can't get behind an oppressed superhero it doesn't make any fucking sense and it has led sjw pop outlets to start pleading with their own readership comics you've got your diversity so why don't you buy them and holy fucking shit have I got a red pill for you it turns out that the people arguing for diversity don't actually enjoy the media and once you've converted it entirely to fit their sensibilities you find out they are a tiny fucking fraction of the population who are just really loud and obnoxious on social media they are not your fucking audience so diamonds top 200 titles show a plethora of non-white male leads his breakdown by the ranks and it's really really really diverse so doing a lot better right but I have the top 200 books that's 38 titles where the lead is not a white heterosexual male it's not perfect but it's much more diverse spread of characters than we've had five years ago except for one thing it's the sales a substantial quantity of diverse titles means nothing if they're plummeting towards cancellation and many of these books are headed in that direction comic books are a remarkably competitive marketplace and Marvel and DC but our businesses first and social justice pioneers second that's your problem they shouldn't be social justice pioneers at all if the market really wants diversity it needs to start putting its money where its mouth is put down Civil War 2 and pick up silk put down and try Mockingbird these books don't have the fail of readers actually support them and send the publishers a clear message that it's what they want to read but the publishers are giving you a clear opportunity to prove that's what you want your diverse books are waiting and more can come if that's what you really want you the readers need show the companies that the course diversity is real and not just a vocal minority well check fucking mate it was not a real call for diversity it was an angry ideologically psychotic minority who wanted to absolutely craft everything in their own image regardless of whether that is what people actually wanted and then we come to Star Wars and one of my favorite things about this is people say oh this wasn't a feminist film this is a picture of the producer in the middle in the black t-shirt a t-shirt that says the forces female the producer of the last Jedi ladies and gentlemen this is a picture of a woman with asked me about my feminist film agenda shirts oh who's that replying to it Rianne Johnson I want one who's he again what did he direct oh that's right he directed the last Jedi ah but there's there's no agenda it's it's not like politicized guys it's totally not so I can't say that I'm surprised when Star Wars the last Jedi had a 42% drop-off in box office receipts after the force awakens I had a good opening weekend obviously and these things often do but people just did not go back for repeat viewings getting to the point where Forbes described it as the audience striking back with 77 percent Friday - Friday plunge for the last Jedi which is the worst ever for a Star Wars movie putting the last Jedi dead last with the worst daily hold of all of the Star Wars movies this is the least popular Star Wars movie that exists and it is the most obviously feminist one and that's at least according to the Guardian who said this is the most triumphantly finished Star Wars movie yet and much good mayor do you and what I really love is the apologia for it Star Wars The Lost Jedi has been killed off by PC culture according to the independent no really people actually think that well yes the people who actually think that are the Guardian and Forbes magazine I mean do you disagree independent are you saying that these progressive outlets are in fact just wrong are you saying that these are right-wing MRA or writes blogs or something of course not unfortunately you can't get around the fact that your ideology is categorically responsible for killing off major entertainment properties when they start pandering to it we have numerous examples of this across almost every entertainment industry at what point are you going to take responsibility for it even Mark Hamill the person who played Luke fucking Skywalker is shitting on your film in his words he's not my Luke Skywalker the only good things come out of Star Wars now are the blanket reviews and the memes because holy fucking shit was this film a joke and of course the left alike oh no no no no it's not that everyone hates the film it's not that it got fifty percent on Rotten Tomatoes when the critics gave it 93 percent its trolls it's all right trolls tanking the movie we're absolutely sure of it yeah okay Rotten Tomatoes are saying no it's not the trolls no it's not we know because we're the ones collecting the reviews we know that it's not the trolls but the left needs to cling to this in fact this film was so fucking unpopular with diehard fans of Star Wars that literally 75,000 of them have signed a petition for Disney to strike episode eight from the official canon they don't like your movie these are styles under the stars fan I don't give a fuck about Star Wars I like watching people shit on Star Wars so for me this has been a bountiful harvest and I have been able to enjoy taking part in this myself but holy fuck for the people who actually enjoyed this property because Star Wars is the only thing keeping Disney afloat these days as someone who fucking hates Disney I've got to say I'm not disappointed and as someone fucking hates Hollywood I can't say that I'm disappointed that they're suffering their worst attended summer movie season in 25 years I don't know why that is but hey I can only speculate it was announced this year that they would be a female version of Doctor Who for the first time in the franchise's history nothing to do with feminism I'm sure and this hasn't outraged half of the audience many of which are female and I'm sure this won't absolutely tank the franchise as a fucking property Oh guess what there's a teaser trailer for ocean's 8 a sequel to Ocean's eleven and ocean's 13 and now it's all women I'm sure that won't ruin it I'm sure this won't be an ideologically driven heap of shit and the thing is when they actually make anything that is designed for the far left radical sjw agenda it just fails such as this program called when we rise if fails again in the ratings and it gets canceled the ABC miniseries chronicling the history of the LGBT rights movement fell almost 1 million viewers from its premiere netting an audience only 2 million on Wednesday with a naught point 6 demo rating according to Variety the show created by milk screenwriter Dustin Lance Black pulled in two point nine five million viewers on his Monday premiere people watched it they decided they didn't like it and they didn't go back to it when we rise is not the only LGBTQ oriented television show to be hurt by low ratings I witness an acclaimed and groundbreaking crime thriller that centered on two gay youth suet Nyssa murder was axed by USA the series directed by however will not be returning for a second season after failing to find an audience it averaged six hundred and thirty nine thousand viewers per episode which has led these kind of far-left outlets to say when we fall in ratings we fail our movement for some reason when it comes to video games comics the movie industry the fucking TV industry LGBT activists and people who like that sort of thing just aren't turning up to enjoy the media either they are a tiny sliver of the population who are incapable of making up the numbers or they personally just never gave a shit about any of these things in the first place and you simply saying look we're pandering to you we're pandering to you isn't enough to get them watching it either way social justice kills entertainment and I just want to point out that there is literally nothing that social justice won't destroy the DC science March organizers were ranked by infighting over diversity then March for science is being ripped apart by organizers who want to make gender and racial diversity the center of a March initially formed to push back against the Trump administration's allegedly anti science stance the Starbucks investors are warning that the liberal agenda is killing Starbucks is business Starbucks steadfastly maintains that sales aren't affected when it mixes coffee with social justice but it's new refugee hiring plan which came in reaction to Trump's ill-fated travel ban did ignite a pretty Swift conservative backlash and now some investors who say they've had enough of the company's constant liberal agenda plan to lambast Howard Schultz & Co at today's annual shareholders meeting people are getting sick of your shares and you may remember in 2015 when Starbucks did their laughable race together campaign because when every corporation tries to push any kind of social message it's always cringe-worthy embarrassing and highly divisive to the people who actually go there for example when Pepsi decided they were going to get social justice for their fucking commercial and the internet did nothing but mock them on all sides of the political aisle a company pandering to social justice is the worst thing they can do Hollywood isn't operating in a vacuum but it is operating in a bubble as Hollywood celebrities have spent 2017 demonstrating over and over and over and this started in 2016 when it came to the American elections and it started with videos like this on Tuesday November 8th this country will make one of the most important the most important the most important decisions in its history you have a chance you have an obligation to be a part of that decision you might think it's not important you might think your important but that's not true and the only way we can prove that to you is by having lots of famous people lots of famous people lots and lots of famous people just a shit ton of famous people repeating how important important important important important how important it is register register register vote these people some of us aren't as famous but still pretty famous like you've seen us somewhere sometimes that not famous person will be Meeks in with that famous ones they drive the message home because of their own polish it seems 30p their unpolished and snotty but you only get this many famous people together if the issues one that truly matters to all of us a disease or ecological crisis or a racist abusive coward who could permanently damage the fabric of our society I imagine in no small parts to the insufferable self-importance of a bunch of people who pretend to be other people for a living this happened Donald Trump is a clown I mean does anybody seriously think that Donald Trump is serious about running for president Donald Trump you know he's a clown but likely moderator apparently believes that Donald Trump is a clown which Republican candidate has the best chance of winning the general election of the declared ones right now Donald Trump president obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the united states exclamation point and real Donald Trump that's it basically this is the beginning of the end for Trump at the beginning of the end beginning of the end is probably starting of the beginning of the end for Donald Trump Donald you're not going to be able to insult your way to the presidency the strongest person usually isn't the loudest one in the room so right now we have Hillary's about 75 or an 80% favorite we've different burst up by double digits nationally 12 points 15 to 38 for a race Clinton leading in Florida Clinton leading in North Carolina Clinton leading in Ohio Clinton leading in Nevada I could go on and on and on I continue to believe mr. Trump will not be present and so right now mr. Trump to answer your call for political honesty I just want to say you're not going to be President all right it's been fun lafete but come on come on buddy we're a major projection right now Donald Trump will take Ohio that's in a projectile trouble carry the state of Florida and South Dakota Texas Arkansas Louisiana this of Montana Oh Georgia Utah Wisconsin Arizona Kansas with its six electoral votes Nebraska in its five electoral votes and Wyoming with its three oh sorry to keep you waiting complicated business I just like to give a personal thanks to Donald Trump for creating the celebrity meltdown that we were treated to throughout all of 2017 and still continues to this day this has been fucking hilarious and the tears when they were wishing Obama well on his farewell party oh my god and it just kept getting better such as this Oscar on USA Today horrified celebrities are live tweeting Trump's inauguration day well after spending the entire campaigning season saying he's not gonna win he's not gonna weigh and he's not gonna win and making so many jokes at his expense for him to then win was just wow and the thing is Trump's victory just kept the cringe coming dear members of Congress dear members of Congress your members of Congress of Congress are mad flabbergasted furious concerned for my children I'm worried for everyone the majority of Americans regardless of who they voted for did not vote for racism for sexism or for xenophobia and yet Donald Trump won and since he won hate crimes arising women have been attacked in his name people of color attacked in his name you represent us in Congress you are our last line of defense so here's what we ask of our elected officials no here's what we demand to the extent that Trump pursues racist sexist anti-immigrant anti worker anti-muslim anti-semitic anti environmental policies we demand that you vigorously oppose him we demand that you block nominees who threaten the rights of women the LGBT community people of

anything anything anything anything that violates our core values as diverse Americans that's right because these lunatics have sat in their bubble for so goddamn long they actually think they represent the majority of the country and the longer the year went on the more obvious it became that they fucking didn't my name is Ashley Josh and I want to say hello to Independence Avenue in the back all the way down to 17th Street whoa and I bring you words from Nina Donovan a 19 year old in Middle Tennessee and she has given me the privilege of telling you what she has to say I am a nasty woman I'm not as nasty as a man who looks like he bathes in cheeto dust a man whose words are a death track to America Electoral College sanctioned hate speech contaminating this national anthem I'm not as nasty as Confederate flags being tattooed across must city maybe the South actually is gonna rise again maybe for some it never really fell blacks are still in shackles and graves just for being black slavery has been reinterpreted as the prison system in front of people who see melanin as animal skin I am NOT as nasty as a swastika painted on a pride flag and I didn't know Devils could be resurrected but I feel Hitler in these streets a mustache traded for a toupee Nazis renamed the cabinet electoral conversion therapy the new gas chambers shaming the gay out of America turning rainbows into suicide notes I am NOT as nasty as racism fraud conflict of interest homophobia sexual assault transphobia white supremacy misogyny ignorance white privilege the unfathomable cringe the donald trump has unleashed may be his own undoing today marks the beginning the beginning of our story the revolution starts here yes I'm angry yes I am outraged yes I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the white house you wouldn't think that just lost an election would you you'd think that just been conquered by a foreign power but no all it was was a vote celebrities in 2017 could not stop publicly embarrassing themselves every time they were given a fucking microphone this award from you who take your craft seriously and earnestly believe like me that great acting can change the world is a call to arms from our fellow crafts men and women to go deeper and through our art to battle against fear self-centeredness and exclusivity of our predominantly narcissistic culture and through our craft to cultivate a more empathetic and understanding society by revealing intimate truths that serve as a forcing reminder to folks when they feel broken and afraid and tired they are not alone we are united in that we are all human beings and we are all together on this horrible painful joyous exciting and mysterious ride that is being alive now as we act in the continuing narrative of stranger things we 1983 Midwestern will repel bullies we will shelter freaks and outcasts those who have no homes we will get past the lies we will hunt monsters and when we're at a loss amidst the hypocrisy and the casual violence of certain individuals and institutions we will as per Chief Jim hopper punched some people in the face when they seek to destroy and we will do it all with soul joy we thank you for this responsibility thank you I think they've forgotten that they're fucking actors it's almost like they've forgotten that they pretend to be other people for a living great acting can change the world you're going to punch people and slay monsters don't make me fucking laugh or the discourse is over we have sat we have talked we have argued we have pondered the discourse is over these people that tweet you when you retweet somebody when you just say a simple fact that should not cause you to get a knot in your stomach like I'm not a Nazi the people that tweet you and say nor am i but just out of curiosity just tell them to go fuck themselves the discourse is over the war has begun you don't you're not talking to Nazis anymore you're not talking to people that want to entertain the notion of being a Nazi anymore you don't want to talk to people that want to circumscribe the concept of Nazism within a fucking Socratic dialectic about goddamn whether Nazi Nazi Nazi they're fucking Nazis it's the bedrock of humanity it is so low that the worst people in the world find it and that's where they rally and it's so low we have gotten so bad that a third of our country has gotten there twenty nine percent of the people are fucking Nazis let's face it that's a minority we can beat them we have to say I'm not a Nazi though two-thirds of the country just don't want to be political the fucking cringe of listening to millionaires completely dismissing what the regular people on Twitter are saying to them trying to get through to them saying look we're not Nazis either and for them to just sit there and go no you know what a third of the country are Nazis you're all Nazis and now we want a civil war it's fucking histrionic but adds that it is also hysterical watching all of these pampered cunts losing their fucking shit but really what's a celebrity to do in the age of Trump now that they've politicized their whole careers around fighting what they consider to be Nazis and they lost what should they do should they be voicing their political opinions these are real questions should celebrities be involved in politics should JK rowling be tweeting about Nazis I mean there are definitely people who think that we should there are definitely people who think that we should get the most out of touch disconnected people in society who literally have nothing to their name other than virtue signaling and say sure your opinion matters in fact it's got so bad that if someone likes a Taylor Swift says look I just don't want to be involved in politics then she can be attacked for not voicing a clear opinion in the elections she's not allowed to be apolitical because that means she's probably a fucking Nazi so yes obviously celebrities should talk politics oh except these celebrities because these celebrities getting political are exactly the wrong kind of celebrities you can't support Donald Trump as a celebrity that makes you a Nazi and don't do what Matt Damon did and start trying to explain social justice issues because I think that if there's one thing we can all agree on is that Hollywood has been utterly overrun by this ideology and now this means you're about to get told to shut the fuck up you fucking white male and there's a huge problem with Hollywood anyway because they have been whitewashing films for decades now I mean don't worry about them black washing films this year such as The Dark Tower black washing is a good thing white washing is a bad thing accurately representing the stories you're trying to portray is just something that a racist would do and the thing is speaking of racist why Hollywood Savior is always white that's a really good question that nobody ever seems to answer adequately but I think Teen Vogue can help us out here Hollywood's white Savior obsession is an extension of colonialism that's right all of these rich famous far-left social justice warriors are actually fucking colonialists I knew it because that's before Christian Bale's right we would be better off if white do weren't just ruining everything we should probably listen to Eminem and his incredibly cringy diss track being white is embarrassing I want to kill myself rapper says he's so embarrassed of his race that he wants to check out of life well ok Eminem but I have to ask what's stopping you because really you should be like ed skrein white people stop apologizing for a lack of diversity and fucking do something about it when Ed found out that he would be playing a character and Hellboy reboots he accepted the role unaware that the character in the original comics was of mixed Asian heritage and so he D platformed himself forthwith because my god it's ok to black wash but whitewashing that's wrong and good on e d for at least living to his principles because hollywood still sucks for people who aren't white straight and male despite the fact that this year's Oscars featured a record number of black actors and major companies like HBO focusing on developing shows by people of color you might think that they're making real progress but no no it turns out everything shit and it always will be because let's be honest it has to be or social justice means nothing I mean you can't sit there and go hey hey hey hey we know there's a shift happening in Hollywood being ethnic is cool because fuck if being ethnic is cool then it's really hard to say that white people are racist and black people are being oppressed by that if being ethnic is actually cool and desirable then oh dear we're going to have problems and I can't believe that out of all of the fucking outlets to do it it was CNN early on in the air that called out Hollywood for their insufferable hypocrisy voters didn't take much notice of what Hollywood says about politics if they did Hillary Clinton would be president by now what's more when Meryl Streep launched a tearful heartfelt attack on the president-elect at the Golden Globes on Sunday night accusing him of mocking a reporter with a disability it did not surprise a Hollywood star unloading on a Republican scene it Donald Trump responding with a vicious counter-attack on Twitter predictable Trump Col Streep overrated as if they're a pair of screen rivals having a good old-fashioned catfight but people hate being lectured by Hollywood why partly because Los Angeles is a strange alien land full of beautiful eccentrics whose Jax like the rest of us use cabs partly because their politics are often far left and absurd but also because Hollywood is grossly hypocritical movie makers may hush over liberal causes at award ceremonies but the industry they work in does not reflect those values on the contrary Hollywood can just be just as regressive and conservative as Donald J Trump and then the Harvey Weinstein scandal broke which again is I'm not going to cover it in any great depth in this video because it will go on for literally forever if I do but just putting it simply Harvey Weinstein one of the largest most important movie moguls in the entire city turned out to be a massive fucking predator and then the floodgates opened and it turns out that over a hundred other major male celebrities in Hollywood have been accused of basically the same thing and with that any moral authority that anyone in Hollywood might have thought they had was washed away overnight because it turned out that these were open secrets that have been joked about in various programs that millions and millions of people had already seen but nobody really knew the backstory - it turns out that everyone fucking knew and it turned out that almost everyone in Hollywood was fucking gross and knew that these things were happening and so it was actually a real relief to hear some celebrities come out and say you know what people do not want to hear about my politics I understand that because I am a fucking actor I pretend to be someone else and I get paid an inordinate amount of money for it and I think it was said best by gene Simmons I think celebrities should basically shut their pie holes and do what they do best Act sing tap dance juggle balls all that kind of stuff that's right entertain us you dancing monkeys here's a few shekels now get to work because literally nobody is interested in your opinions on anything political because you're a bunch of fucking spoiled idiots and so for the final segment we will talk about Donald Trump and I know that there are going to be people who complain about this but I'm afraid I am only going to really cover Trump's actual achievements these successes of his presidency and I'm going to do this because as we learned earlier in the year 90% of the coverage of Donald Trump has been negative and so it's just not worth my time to spend hours compiling all of the negative press Donald Trump has had because there's just so fucking much of it if you want to hear about the bad things Donald Trump has done from whichever perspective you like you can go to almost any other media outlets I'm just going to tell you about the good things he's done because you'll hardly find that anywhere so the first thing that Donald Trump has done which is absolutely spectacular is pummel the living shit out of the media and strip them almost entirely of any moral authority that they had nice to see you you wrote in your most recent column that the media keeps losing to Donald Trump how so is it a trap that the journals were born into yeah I think it certainly is it a trap and I think there were in this unusual position of what we think is covering Donald Trump turns out to be you know since actually what we think is debunking Donald Trump turns out to be supporting Donald Trump so when we fact-check misstatements he says it helps him I think it does I mean I think we're doing he in every situation seems to be provoking an overreaction so we go into a fit of apoplexy and what we set up is as we try to go after his credibility our credibility becomes equally a problem I've heard other people make this argument that there's hysteria from the national news media right now I don't see individual journalist acting hysterical but maybe the abundance of coverage comes across that way well first thing I think that that's not true I think individual journalists are in many cases having a nervous breakdown a good example of the New Yorker The New Yorker has a hundred years has had one style of was a very detailed very close reporting since the election David Remnick the the editor of The New Yorker has has gone off in in fits of blow VA ssin never seen in The New Yorker before no facts no nothing he knows he knows nobody in this new administration has done no reporting and yet the world is coming to it and end in his view I think it's and I mean this with truly no disrespect but I think you can border on being sort of quite a ridiculous figure it's not a good look to repeatedly and self-righteously defend your own self-interest wolf is absolutely right the media do look absolutely ridiculous and media approval ratings have never been lower almost half of the United States think that the media just make up stories about Trump they think they just fabricate them from whole cloth and there's a good reason for that they fucking do as 20:17 draws to a close there is still no evidence of Trump Russia collusion this is a conspiracy theory that they have pushed since day one and they have nothing for investigations into Russian meddling in the election has turned up nothing it's all hot air and it's been wall to wall for the past year it's got to the point where Ezra Klein of Vox the founder of Vox is literally just stating it sure looks like there was conclusion between Trump and Russia they don't provide a smoking gun but it just it's almost impossible to believe there wasn't collusion between Trump and Russia okay but there's no fucking smoking gun which means you are a conspiracy theorist but don't get me wrong a year-long smear campaign by almost all of the media has definitely damaged Donald Trump's approval ratings and I would be wary to say via for anyone who's absolutely convinced that Trump will get another another four years in 2020 don't don't bet on it these peep have done nothing but defame him but as time goes on the polling gets worse for the media as well according to the data from the latest Harvard Harris poll which is provided exclusively to the hill sixty-five percent of voters believe there is a lot of fake news in the mainstream media that number includes 80 percent of Republicans 60 percent of independents and 53 percent of Democrats which goes to show you just how left-leaning the media is but even then half of their own base believe they're full of shit so when the media is gloating about Trump's low approval ratings they really need to start taking a look in the fucking mirror according to a USA Today Suffolk University poll Americans dislike the media more than they do the president when asked how they viewed the media only 36% of respondents said that they approve of the mainstream media while a majority of 50 percent said they disapprove that is fucking amazing while they may be dragging Donald Trump down into a trench from which he may never escape they have also done the same to themselves it turns out when you reach down onto the floor and start picking up shit to fling at someone else you also end up covered in shit and despite what the more hysterical segments of the media would have you believe Donald Trump actually has achieved something in fact he's achieved so much that the Huffington Post has posted an article called sadly Trump is winning so as I said there are actually many lists of trumps achievements and it's worth your time reading them if you're actually someone who really wants to see what he's actually done as in the things he has actually achieved but they've been quite a few interesting ones indeed for example like for example as reported by the Guardian Trump has built an invisible wall and has slowed immigration without laying a brick Trump can't get funding from Congress for his wall it's just not within his power to do it but just his attitude towards immigration and immigrants has encouraged immigrants not to come to the United States so if that's not a win I don't know what is the next interesting thing is the stock market in what Reuters ominously puts as under Trump's shadow but when you actually look at the graph and see what Reuters has to say about it the Dow has closed at a record high more than 70 times since election day in 2016 and the S&P 500 has closed a record on 52 days the fifth most in any year and according to courts Trump is the 8th best jobs president in modern history while under Obama the united states was hemorrhaging jobs under trump it litter actually started to get jobs back one of the core pillars of his campaigning rhetoric he will keep jobs in the US and he will try and keep them back well there we go he's actually doing what he said he would do but I want to make it clear it might not really entirely be his fault that these things have happened for example he said that he's added a million jobs but it's likely that that would have happened anyway or at least something along those lines but at least he hasn't lost jobs unlike under Obama and it is true that unemployment in the United States is at its lowest for over a decade but this is part of a declining trend but it's still continued if not accelerated under Donald Trump and the thing is it's got so bad that even Snopes can't just say that no Donald Trump has been a failure when an infographic like this has been going around the worst they can say about it is it's a mixture of yes and no and when everyone says are well he's just doing it to get rich well that doesn't seem to be true to be honest given how Trump was the most notable loser on Forbes his list of wealthiest Americans having lost six hundred million dollars over the past year if this is some kind of selfish get-rich-quick scheme for Donald Trump it's really not working and you think you might just resign because of all the money he's losing but to be honest with you I think as I've always thought about Donald Trump Donald Trump is a buffoon he is not a man who's going to ace IQ tests but he is also a patriot and he does have a kind of animalistic cunning and understanding of how to manipulate other people as he has shown with his dealings with eeeh he is actually doing a good thing for the United States because he is a fucking nationalist and he's not a white nationalist as some people say he is just an American nationalists and thank fucking god for that because I tell you what 2017 could have been a much worse year if it wasn't for Donald Trump actually just standing up to the far-left bullies and turning them into a bunch of hysterical fruitcakes I have absolutely no fucking regrets so far over the course of the year I have found myself going from me well he's not Hillary Clinton supporter of Donald Trump to a full-on fuck it fuck it he's my guy he's doing what he said he'd do and he's turning the left fucking crazy I have absolutely loved 2017 I think it's been great I think it has been good for people who care about the national interest of their countries I think that we have done a good job beating back the phenomenal forces of the progressive left and I think in 2018 we can keep going and we should just to let people know I will be doing other live events as well because I know a lot of people wanted to be able to come to the live event and it was just not a big enough venue and I'll try and do a few in the United States too I mean I'm gonna be out there anyway because of a certain someone so I'll see if I can arrange a couple in New York or something like that and I'll let everyone know when they're out and I just want to say 2017 was a great year for me personally and that's all because of you guys I just want to really thank everyone for supporting me for watching my videos for upvoting them for commenting for supporting me on patreon for buying any merchandise of mine thank you all without all of you I would have nothing and I am well aware of that and that's why I do not take outside money I just take money that I own from a YouTube channel and from my patreon and from any merchandise sales you guys fund me and I will always keep that in mind thank you and here's the 2018 let's hope it's good one
