About this episode
Conservative ATTACKED By Protester Over Trans Presentation. Conservative personality Michael Knowles was giving a talk about trans issues and feminism at UMKC when a far left protester sprayed him with an unknown chemical. Police promptly arrested the masked individual and determined that it was not bleach and just smelled like bleach. The reason for the attack likely has to do with the issue to which Knowles was speaking, trans and feminism. Protesters often take issue with any debate around the issue of trans individuals as they claim its "debating their existence." Conservatives openly challenge the far left and social justice activism but due to the antics of the far left debate often does not happen. But the reality is that we need to have these conversations to determine how and when to protect an individual's rights. Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few? Or do we just protect the most marginalized individual? Regressive leftist protesters are more intent on shutting down the conversations than engaging and it tends to result in conservatives gaining ground in some areas. While the regressive left claims to be fighting for social justice, their antics often backfire and result in negative consequences.
