Who was that speaker? They had a guy who was speaking yesterday. It was the
kicker from
Harrison Bucker. Yeah, you see this? This was going around. He was speaking at
a Catholic
school, Benedict College. Congratulations on an amazing accomplishment. You
should be proud of
all that you have achieved to this point in your young lives. I want to speak
directly to you
briefly because I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolical
lies told to you.
How many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking
about all the
promotions and titles you are going to get in your career? Some of you may go
on to lead successful
careers in the world, but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are
most excited
about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world. I can tell
you that my
beautiful wife, Isabel, would be the first to say that her life truly started
when she began living
her vocation as a wife and as a mother. I'm on this stage today and able to be
the
man I am because I have a wife who leans into her vocation. I am beyond blessed
with the
many talents God has given me, but it cannot be overstated that all of my
success is made
possible because a girl I met in band class back in middle school would convert
to the faith-
You love middle school, huh?
Become high school, and embrace one of the most important titles of all, Hallmaker.
Okay.
Yo, it's a kind of a sweet heartfelt thing. It's just like he may have, he
should, might have,
you know, ran that by. It's a, I think it's a nice sentiment that he's trying
to go for, but
it's also like, dude, well, he's, yeah. He's saying that, well, first of all, I
do, I wonder
if our school, does it look at homemaking because we live, a lot of people are
divorced now.
People are raised with only one parent.
Yeah.
You know, my mother had to work all the time, you know, your dad. So then your
mom has to
do both jobs or your dad has to do both jobs. A lot of times, if you're not
able to see both
parents, um, it's not a safe place for even an animal to be raised with a
single parent.
Yeah.
And we promote it. It feels like a lot with our society.
Dude, it's impossible. They used to do that social work school. Like, there's
no difference
with having a single parent and two parents. It's like, yeah, what the fuck are
you talking
about?
So different.
Gigantic difference. It's, dude, it'd be impossible. If I had to raise kids by
myself, it's, it's
real. It's, you can't, it's hard to do. I'm not going to say you can't do it,
but
it's like, it is so fucking hard. It's crazy.
So, yeah, I don't think that this, I definitely understand where this at a
Christian college
is Benedictine. It sounds like a Christian.
Okay. So it's not that crazy, right? My thing, it's, it's kind of like, I do
feel like, you
know, people do hear, hate hearing this, but I, there is some truth to that in
terms of
like, I do think it's a, I just feel sad if a woman does like, gets all like,
you know,
has a jammed in her head that she has to like rise at a fortune 500 company and
slowly
is like, damn, I kind of wish I had kids. Like having kids is more meaningful
than being
like an insurance salesman, you know what I'm saying? Like in terms of
experience. So
yeah, I feel like it's like, it's a thing women have, it's an insecurity that
if they
don't work, they're somehow have been brainwashed into like some old, like, you
know, outdated
value system that like they should fight against it. But you know, in reality,
I do think that
a lot of women, you know, would probably like to not be at their job and like,
you know,
be at home doing stuff. It's a fucking, it is a job. It's a massive, insane
undertaking.
Well, it's, it's a job that's being, that's not getting done right now.
Yeah.
It feels like in our country.
Yeah. Cause it's almost like a, like, dude, women, like they're allergic to
like minivans.
Like if you show a woman, a minivan, they'll spaz like, no, I'd never drive
that. Then
they'll drive like a crossover, which is just a fucking minivan in disguise,
but you can't
tell them it's a minivan. You can't, they'll spaz, but there, there is
something almost
at night, a crossover kind of like takes its fucking sides off. Minivan pops
out as a cigarette.
God. But yeah, again, it's like a form all day. Yeah. I would never tell a
woman like
you can't work. No, you can do whatever you want. Of course. Well, I also think
some of
it isn't over. Like there was a time where women like, um, were abused in the
workplace.
They were taken advantage of. For sure. They were used for sex to get
promotions. They were promised promotions and not given them. They had no, um,
they would
go to court, but the men in town had the power and they would influence the
judges. There was
no, it's a fucking nightmare. It's been a nightmare for women to get the
equality that
they've needed. For sure. Um, also to just have money really, which was the
power. Yeah.
Right. It's definitely been a hell of a journey, but yeah, I wonder sometimes
if, um, the pendulum
will swing back some and you will have more women that are just like, I want to
be a homemaker.
Um, and I want to be a good mom and create, create a good household. And a lot
of the women
in our society, I think they're a reflection of men. You know, I think we don't
realize
that a lot of times. Like if your wife is happy, not all the time, but, um, you
know,
they're a reflection of, of their, of men, you know, does it make any sense? It
does. It makes
total sense, man. Yeah. Like if you love your wife and you lift her up and you,
you know, you,
then she lives that way. Yeah. You know? And if as a father, you do that
probably with your
daughters, they live that way. Yeah. You know, I always sometimes feel like
they're, they're,
they're, they're a reflection of the men in their lives. Yeah, it's true, man.
It's hard
too, especially like, you know, with any job, it's just hard to like, remember
like, okay. Yeah.
Cause you get so wrapped up in your job. You're like, oh, I have to like set up
like a culture
in this house and make sure everyone's okay. And like do stuff. Cause you get,
you get into a
thing where you're just like, all right, I'm done my work. I'm going to go home.
We're going to
watch TV. We're going to chill. And I totally get that. But yeah, it's, it
takes a lot of effort
and no one's really incentivizing you toward that effort. Like with work,
everyone's like,
you know, they're dangling carrots over your face all, you know, all day long,
but for having kids
and like raising a family, you it's totally up to you to be like, here's how we're
going to do this.
And it's, it's difficult, but I do think women got sold an idea that like, they
have to be kick-ass
businesswomen and like anything less than that is like a failure and like a
disgrace for like the
women's struggle. And it's like, well, I think that, I think the women's
struggle helped in people
finding out like, oh yeah, people were pretty miserable to women for a long
time. Now they just let them do
whatever they, whatever they really want to do, let them do. I get why people
are mad at that,
but I still, I'm like, that's not a bad thing. And he's genuinely thinks he's
trying to help
people, man. He's not trying to be like a dick and like stay at home, bitch.
Yeah. At one point, Bucker mentioned the word pride, then clarified that he
wasn't talking about
the deadly sin sort of pride that has an entire month dedicated to it, but the
true God-centered
pride that is cooperating with the Holy Ghost to glorify him. Okay. So he
really, he's just a devout,
he's a devout Christian or Catholic maybe. I mean, that's the, the thing is
about some of this,
it's like, you can't go to a devout Catholic and then, and expect non-devout
Catholic shit,
you know? That's what I love about like the way the media covers a lot of this
stuff. It's like,
yeah, most people might not agree with the guy or some people might not, but
you can't go to a
chocolate shop and get pissed when somebody fucking gives you some chocolate.
True. Yeah.
That guy's a devout Catholic. Then that's what he believes. It's like, it was a
safe space. He was
in a safe space and you know, it's like if my dad sat in like a liberal safe
space, he'd be incensed.
He'd freak. Yeah. So it's like, yeah, he doesn't go there. So it's like, yeah,
I get it. It's like,
dude, I, I get if you're gay, that would piss you off. But if you're not gay or
like whatever.
And if you're like super Christian, you're like, fuck yeah. It all depends on
like what you're up to.
Like there's people for everybody, you know, but we act like sometimes the
media acts like there's
not people for everybody in a way they only want to create, but then that's
their job.
Yeah. Maybe I'm being a downer today. No, you're not being a downer. It is like,
I mean, we're having like, dude, there's a guy, Ken Wilber who writes, I think
it's like the best
take on this I've ever heard about how historically human beings have gone
through just different levels
of just consciousness, consciousness, where it's like, like originally the, the
thing that like
motivated humans, like the highest ideal is just being powerful and dominating
others.
Like if you're a Roman, if you're like, you know, uh, like Alexander the great,
if you went
and fucked up a whole bunch of people, you were the man, like you would be like,
God loves
me. This is awesome. And then we kind of evolved into like Christianity and all
that, you know,
whatever that was kind of like, actually, you know, we should be nicer to each
other.
And then we came up like, we should be nice to other Christians and like kind
of fuck
everybody else. So we went from like, they call it like power gods to mythic
membership.
And then from mythic membership to the scientific worldview. And they're saying
the last one,
the newest worldview has been this kind of like woke kind of video, like postmodern
woke ideology.
And now we have people at different levels of this and they're all just entrenched
in their
worldview and fighting each other. And he's like, it's just going to go on, you
know, until people
are just like, all right, fuck it. And they transcend all of them. Like, look,
it's you do your thing.
I get it. I don't agree, but like, I don't hate you because of it.
Yeah. That's the part. Yeah. I think hating people because of it's bizarre to
me,
but I'm not shot. Like a Christian guy at a Christian college said some really
Christian
shit. He did. So it's like that to me, it's not even fucking news. You know, it's
like,
let him be who he wants to be. You know, he said, I love my wife and I'm not
gay. It's like,
yeah, that's for sure. Right. Yeah. I'm not, yeah. I'm not saying I agree with
everything
the guy says or anything, but let him speak. If it's like, yeah, I think the
guy should be able to speak.
