Dennis Prager argues that the most educated people have become the most irrational, embracing ideas like biological men competing in women's sports and gender surgeries for teenagers. He frames these as examples of how safety has become a false god, and how the state has eroded parental authority through vaccine mandates and medical procedures.
out wonderful, supported communism and Nazism. The best educated turned out to be the worst. In the United States, that's certainly true. The best educated, as I pointed out on Friday, and I'd never actually put it this way, you learn to be stupid. And I mean that literally. People are born smart. The vast majority of people have fine brains. So you don't learn to be smart, you learn to be stupid. And that's what happens to you. The best educated are the most woke. The most educated are the first to say it's okay for a biological man to to compete against biological women. It's not unfair to the women. The most educated are the most likely to say that idiotic, immoral idea, that it's fair for women if a biological man competes against them. If you went to graduate school, that is the most likely group to believe that nonsense. So putting false gods aside, there are many other false gods. Safety is a false god today. We are willing to crush vast numbers of children in the name of safety. If it saves one life, we can ruin 100,000 or a million lives. That's the motto of the believers in safety as an end in itself. But I said to my congregation, over the past few years I have come to believe honor your father and mother might be the most important, because all totalitarian regimes begin by undermining parental authority. In the communist world, your loyalty was to the party, not your parents. In the fascist world, it was to the leader, not your parents. And in the left-wing world, it is to your teacher or your health authorities, but not your parents. You can get a vaccine that is much more likely to hurt you than help you at that age without your parents' permission or even knowledge? Well, why not? A 16-year-old girl could have her breasts removed if she says she's a boy by, by an unscrupulous, money-hungry surgeon. What kind of surgeon removes healthy breasts from a teenage girl, right? Not fair to ask. Monster. Guy's a monster. Huh? Makes you shiver. It makes you shiver. That's correct. Well, don't start me on medicine today. Anisha Glazian continues the LA Times article. The girl who is the subject of the story, 17-year-old who really wants a vaccine. The girl knows nothing about vaccines. Nothing. That's the amazing thing. She has no idea that it is useless at best with young people. Does she know how many young people die of it? Was it one? What was the number in LA or California of her age group? One? Alicia Glossin is an ambassador with Teens for Vaccines, a group that helps teens whose parents are anti-vax. So this girl has found meaning in life. That's what all kids want. Used to be God and country, patriotism and religion. They're both dead, killed by the left. So that's her religion now. Vaccines. Streaming on Salem Now. The Democratic Party somehow has convinced Black people that they're the good guys, never mind the skanky history of the Democratic Party. That was a party of slavery. He said, listen, I gotta give these niggas enough. Not too much, but enough that I have them voting Democrat for the next 200 years. The race grievance industry would have you believe that blacks get up and think about nothing else except race. If I tell you this is racist, yeah, I'm gonna get you emotional. There is a whole big cottage industry for racism. If racism went away, a lot of people would be unemployed. The mob during the Minneapolis riots following the death of George Floyd. A bunch of white thugs, frankly, burning down the city's traditional Black and Asian businesses. They're racist, racist, racist, racist, racist. Everything's racist.

I was only 7 years— I was only 7 years older than my students. Uh, that's, that's not a great span of time, uh, for between a man and a young woman. And, uh, um, it is a daily distraction. That's right, it is. I thank you for your honesty. That is exactly right. And it is not his fault. He's built that way. It's no more his fault than food is a distraction to the hungry. Okay, there was no difference between the two. So I'll tell you an interesting story, really interesting. Many years ago, and I can't find this on the internet, maybe one of you can, and that would be of great help to me. A— and I only remember that he was from a university in Indiana, but I don't remember which university. What'd you say, Sean? So, uh, he— a professor did a study and found that one of the two groups— I don't remember the second of men most likely to divorce were high school teachers, and I think college teachers. In other words, men around a great number of young women divorced at a greater rate than any other men. And I had that, I had that professor on with that study, so if you could find that I could read it to you. Keep up with what's trending. Subscribe on YouTube today.
