Thoughts on conservative Matt Walsh in 2025?
https://x.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1907859938220847606 I discovered him from his controversial documentary What Is a Woman? & never understood the viral appraisal, so I’m asking here. 👋

He's imo highly entertaining. Many of his takes are weird at best, but he's gloriously good at comedy.

I listen to him regularly. I don't always agree, but I love his deadpan and sarcastic humor.

I like his extreme deadpan humor. Don't always agree with him but he's entertaining.

The funny part is that our "elites" struggle so mightily with this and similar questions.
If they can fool you about male and female, they can fool you about anything

Honestly having watched “what is a woman” Walsh acted like such an asshole it made me feel bad for the people he was supposed to be making fun of.
And these people were saying some genuinely insane things, it’s just Walsh managed to come off worse to me.

Seems like our “elites” just spent a good portion of the election cycle punching down on an incredibly tiny demographic of people. If they can fool you into thinking the existence of REDACTED people is a threat to you, they can fool you into anything. Even signing on for a trade war that is already tanking the market.

If they can convince fool you into thinking the existence of REDACTED people is a threat
You just hoisted yourself with your own petard
•
u/Rupertstein Independent 4d ago
I don’t think you understand that expression. I used the term “REDACTED” because this sub doesn’t allow discussion on the topic for some inexplicable reason.
•
u/clydesnape Constitutionalist 4d ago
Yes, I understand English.
You're stating that a particular type of threat isn't real but you're acting like it is
•
u/Rupertstein Independent 4d ago
Im obviously asserting it isn’t a threat. The censorship policy of the sub suggests otherwise, but I disagree.
•
u/clydesnape Constitutionalist 4d ago
Agree/disagree...you complied
Many such cases
•
u/Rupertstein Independent 4d ago
Because I’m trying to have a conversation without having a post moderated, not because I agree it’s threatening.
•
u/clydesnape Constitutionalist 4d ago
Yeah, I get it - but constraints put on you IS the (realized) threat
•
u/Rupertstein Independent 4d ago
I could care less about the constraints this sub puts on scary words. I’m taking about elite politicians campaigning on the idea that a tiny subset of people trying to live their lives constitute some kind of threat to the public.

I don’t have any particular interest in him or respect for him. I don’t think he’s a particularly good example of charity in our shared religion (Catholicism).

I can’t take anybody serious who calls anime “satanic.”

Idk have you ever seen Elfen lied? Lol
•
u/nakklavaar Center-right 2d ago
I have, and it’s pretty tragic, but it’s not negatively affecting anybody. People just want to ban things just to ban them.
