Matt Walsh: You Can Beat Leftists By Making Them ‘State Their Premise,’ Which They Won’t Do Because It’s ‘Evil’ | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Daily Wire podcast host Matt Walsh explained during an interview Thursday night his strategy for winning arguments against the political Left, saying that it simply boils down to making them state what their positions are.

    Walsh's appearance on Fox News with host Tucker Carlson comes after he testified before a Tennessee House committee this week where he sparred with Democrat lawmakers over a bill that would ban sex-change treatments on minors.

    "So, their really failed and embarrassing attempts to discredit me were not only humiliating for them, but also totally irrelevant, because even if you can prove that I'm a terrible guy, does that automatically make it okay to mutilate children then?" Walsh said. "Because that's what we're supposed to be talking about."

    "But they don't want to talk about that because they know they can't defend their position," he said. "This is the position that Democrats and the Left are constantly in on many issues, in particular on this one, where their position is something that is so unspeakably evil that they can't speak it."

    "So, you can defeat them in an argument simply by trying to get them to state their premise," he continued. "They can't even state their premise. I mean, [Tennessee state Rep.] Caleb Hemmer [D] does believe that 16-year-olds can consent to having body parts removed, but he can't say that out loud because he knows how crazy it sounds. And so instead, he just falls silent."

    TRANSCRIPT:

    Carlson: We were shocked - and probably most people were shocked - to learn that Vanderbilt Medical Center, which is a very well respected Hospital in Tennessee is involved in the mutilation of children's genitals for profit. They brag about it on camera. Now, we know this because of Matt Walsh, who found the evidence. So yesterday at a hearing in Tennessee at the Statehouse, Democrats were outraged - not by the general mutilation going on at Vanderbilt Medical Center, but they were mad at Matt Walsh. One Democrat, a man called John Ray Clemens, asked Walsh for his credentials. Here's Walsh's response.

    Clemmons: Can you give us a summary of your educational background or your healthcare education experience?

    Walsh: My experience in healthcare?

    Clemmons: Your educational background? I'm just curious, you testified as to a lot of your own research. So I'm curious for what purpose you do that, and what background you have that qualifies you to speak to that?

    Walsh: Well, my background that qualifies me to speak to this is that I'm a human being with the brain, and common sense, and I have a soul. And so therefore, I think it's a really bad idea to chemically castrate children. That is my experience. Also, I did - now it's true, I didn't, I didn't go to college, but I did go to school long enough to learn how to read. So I can read the data for myself. And that's exactly what I've done.

    Clemmons: For what purpose do you conduct your research and use this brain of yours?

    Walsh: I use it for the purpose of trying to protect children from being castrated and mutilated. That's one of the things I try to do.

    [End video]

    Carlson: What kind of soulless freak is John Ray Clemens, who could sit there hearing all this stuff and take the side of the castrators of children. It's just beyond - but Matt Walsh is the villain.

    In another hearing, Walsh left another Tennessee lawmaker, this one called Caleb Hemmer, completely speechless.

    Hemmer: Just curious of your definition of if you feel like people are adults at 16, should -

    Walsh: People are adults at 18. But actually, your brain is not fully developed until you're 25. So we should be having a conversation about whether we should even be doing the surgery to people at 18. But certainly before 18, it's absurd. I mean, do you think that a 16-year-old can meaningfully consent to having their body parts removed? Do you? No?

    [End video]

    Carlson: Caleb Hemmer, another ghoul defending the indefensible, had no answer. God bless Matt Walsh for doing that. He's the host of "The Matt Walsh Show," joins us now. Matt, thank you. It's so satisfying to watch - boy, you expose these people as truly filthy people.

    Walsh: Yeah, I think, well, I mean, they expose themselves, I think, I think most of all, and the interesting thing, too, is that I'm sitting there in the hearing, I was giving my view on this bill - I'm in favor of the bill to ban the mutilation of children. I'm giving my view as a taxpayer and a private citizen, not an author of the bill. So, their really failed and embarrassing attempts to discredit me were not only humiliating for them, but also totally irrelevant, because even if you can prove that I'm a terrible guy, does that automatically make it okay to mutilate children then? Because that's what we're supposed to be talking about.

    But they don't want to talk about that, because they know they can't defend their position. This is the position that Democrats and the Left are constantly in on many issues, in particular on this one, where their position is something that is so unspeakably evil that they can't speak it. So, you can defeat them in an argument simply by trying to get them to state their premise. They can't even state their premise. I mean, Caleb Hemmer does believe that 16-year-olds can consent to having body parts removed, but he can't say that out loud because he knows how crazy it sounds. And so instead, he just falls silent.

    Carlson: You look at someone like John Ray Clements - looks like sort of a normal person, maybe he has kids, he's in favor of cutting the breasts off girls? I mean, how can anybody get to a place where that's okay?

    Walsh: I think, you know, I can't see inside their their minds. But I have to imagine that most of these people know at some level that it's wrong, but they're just ideologically beholden to it. That again is why they don't even attempt to defend it. And instead, we get this credentialism thing going on, as if I need credentials to know that abusing children is wrong.

    Carlson: Well, as a Harvard trained physician, I agree with you. It's wrong. Matt Walsh, great to see you. Thank you so much. Thank you.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?
  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.
  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.
  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

Understanding that this fragile Republic of the self-governed is in a precarious space in our nation's vast history: What is your honor bound patriotic duty in helping to sustain the continuance of these United States of America?
  I will depend on my Democratic Socialist politicians to continue to march hard toward the Left to provide Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for all who think and do as they are told.
  I will defend the Constitution of the United States of America, and support all elected leaders who pledge to protect and insure the continued sovereignty of this Representative Republic.
  I am very concerned about maintaining my current life style without working. I was told that as long as I vote Democrat, I had nothing to worry about ... but now I worry.
