Channel: unknown
[0]
good evening and welcome to Tucker
[3]
Carlson tonight last year unbeknownst to
[5]
pretty much nobody a woman in Brooklyn
[6]
started a Twitter account that was
[8]
comprised almost solely of videos of
[11]
liberals talking about themselves
[13]
so the concept was very simple find
[15]
interesting tape that had already been
[17]
uploaded to the Internet by the people
[18]
who made it and then repost that tape
[21]
there was no editing of it no special
[22]
effects there was very little editorial
[24]
content the idea was to let activist
[27]
types describe in their own words what
[30]
they believe unfiltered
[32]
the owner created it called that account
[33]
Libs of tick tock Libs of tick tock now
[37]
has more followers than the entire
[38]
population of the state of Wyoming lives
[40]
of tick tock's audience dwarfs the
[42]
nightly viewership on CNN
[45]
so it was quite Successful by definition
[49]
the question is why and here's why it
[51]
turns out that as repellent as academic
[54]
lifestyle liberalism may seem to you as
[56]
an observer the reality of it as
[58]
described by the people who actually
[60]
believe this stuff is even worse than
[61]
you ever imagined it's really beyond
[63]
belief both idiotic and disgusting it's
[66]
like watching someone eat roadkill you
[68]
feel nauseous but you can't turn away
[71]
so lives of tick tock found all kinds of
[74]
tape on the internet but they found a
[75]
bunch of selfie Style videos from the
[77]
publicly available social media accounts
[79]
of teachers they didn't Snoop they just
[82]
pulled people had already posted here's
[84]
some of what they found
[87]
us and I'm a preschool teacher recently
[89]
we started wearing pronouns
[91]
the kids get to pick
[92]
to pick pronoun pin everything
[95]
every single day and we had some that
[97]
changed up so I'm a non-binary preschool
[100]
teacher and my kids know I'm non-binary
[102]
they know I'm not a girl or a boy I use
[105]
they them pronouns in the classroom we
[107]
work on it not all the kids get it
[108]
that's okay and I go by mixed gray in
[111]
the classroom not miss or Mr Man y'all
[113]
thought me teaching the children about
[116]
me being Polly was crazy but not only
[120]
that but they also know that I'm gender
[122]
fluid I'm gonna give you my explanation
[124]
about what it means to be transgender as
[126]
well so when babies are born the doctor
[129]
looks at them and they make a guess
[131]
about whether the baby is a boy or a
[133]
girl it's as young as three and four are
[135]
actually aware of their gender identity
[137]
even if they don't have the language for
[138]
it say that pre-k through third grade
[140]
are not ready for such topics is
[142]
actually internalized homophobia and
[144]
transphobia
[146]
so those are the people in charge of
[149]
tending to your small children's Minds
[151]
while you're at work now maybe you agree
[154]
with the views you just heard maybe you
[155]
think that doctors just guess at the sex
[157]
of newborns maybe you don't agree it
[159]
almost doesn't matter either way you
[161]
have a right as a parent to know what
[163]
these people are teaching to your
[165]
children
[166]
and yet before lives of tick tock there
[168]
was not an easy way to find out what
[169]
they were teaching I take the teacher's
[171]
word for it
[172]
well it turns out there are an awful lot
[173]
of videos like this out there Libs of
[175]
tick tock found a lot of them here for
[177]
example is the scene at one private
[179]
school in Washington DC
[186]
that's right now
[190]
okay so let's say you're paying 45 000 a
[194]
year to send your kids to some overrated
[196]
mediocre private school in the District
[198]
of Columbia you think everything's fine
[200]
you pull up lives of tick tock and you
[202]
find out what's actually happening in
[203]
your kids classroom what's wrong with
[205]
that
[206]
this is journalism no news organization
[208]
in America has done more to reveal the
[210]
reality within American schools than
[212]
Libs of tick tock we heard a number of
[214]
their videos on the show we are grateful
[216]
for their reporting it was far more
[218]
straightforward than anything you're
[219]
going to find in the New York Times or
[220]
the Washington Post because it wasn't
[222]
accompanied by a lot of blow feeding
[223]
they just showed you the tape and you
[224]
could decide that's journalism here's
[227]
another piece of tape that lives of tick
[229]
tock Unearthed that amazed and horrified
[231]
us this is a teacher screaming at a
[233]
student for refusing to wear a mask
[236]
you're playing are you playing no I'm
[238]
not all of us I will call the police
[240]
I'm serious
[242]
yeah
[246]
are you serious yeah I am serious man I
[249]
haven't had enough of it I knew you were
[251]
going to take off your mask the moment I
[253]
turned the corner
[255]
so enjoy Bia
[258]
that's an instant school suspension
[260]
where you have to sit and run with the
[261]
military guy all day
[263]
because you're a piece
[267]
I'm gonna call the police he screeches
[269]
because the kid has the mask beneath his
[271]
nose
[272]
now again maybe you're okay with your
[275]
kids being taught by emotionally
[277]
incontinent Nut Cases like that maybe
[279]
you're not but you probably ought to
[281]
know either way so you can see why Libs
[283]
of tick tock quickly became so very
[285]
popular you didn't have to Wade through
[286]
some long editorial to find out what was
[288]
actually happening you could see the raw
[289]
video and again you could assess it for
[292]
yourself
[293]
millions of parents are grateful for
[294]
that so is Christina Pusha who's the
[296]
press secretary for the governor of
[298]
Florida Ron DeSantis it was partly in
[300]
response to videos that she saw on Libs
[302]
of tick tock that Florida ultimately
[304]
banned Public School teachers from
[305]
lecturing kindergartners about sex
[307]
that's no law it's one of those popular
[309]
laws in the state the majority of
[311]
Democrats support it so lives of tick
[313]
tock was getting results as good
[315]
journalism does not bad for a Twitter
[317]
feed so of course that Twitter feed had
[319]
to be shut down the bite Administration
[321]
and its many servants in the news media
[323]
set to work the neoliberal slander
[325]
machine Media Matters published four
[327]
separate hit pieces on lives of tick
[329]
tock in just the past three weeks it was
[331]
trafficking hate for allowing liberals
[334]
to talk about themselves it was anti-gay
[336]
hahaha as if the site was attacking
[339]
anyone surely was not attacking gaze he
[341]
was just playing tape of people talking
[343]
about themselves in their own words
[345]
video that they uploaded
[347]
well Twitter could not stand this they
[349]
shut down the account entirely twice
[351]
they suspended it one of those
[353]
suspensions came after a complaint from
[354]
a Harvard Law instructor called
[356]
Alejandra Carl Barlow quote my report on
[359]
Libs of tick tock violating Twitter
[360]
rules got them suspended he bragged
[363]
Yet the woman who keeps runs lives of
[366]
tick tock kept going so ultimately Jeff
[369]
Bezos weighed in bezos's personal
[372]
newspaper The Washington Post decided to
[374]
harass the family of the woman who
[376]
operates lives of tick tock they
[378]
couldn't find her so they went after her
[379]
family the post sent what it calls its
[381]
Tech colonists Taylor Lorenz to show up
[384]
outside a home that belongs to one of
[386]
the woman's relatives
[388]
and then Lorenz set about trying to find
[389]
the woman herself she couldn't she sent
[392]
a direct message on Twitter to someone
[393]
who turned out to be not that woman I
[395]
had nothing to do with the account
[396]
whatsoever but because she did that we
[398]
know what Taylor wren's was saying
[400]
here's what she said quote you're being
[402]
implicated in starting a hate campaign
[405]
against
[406]
lgbtq people
[409]
right I hate campaign so here you have
[412]
Taylor Lorenz who's effectively acting
[414]
as the Stussy for the Deep State trying
[416]
to intimidate a private citizen
[419]
into silence
[421]
and this morning
[423]
she gave it her Best Shot The Washington
[425]
Post published a piece by Lorenz linking
[427]
to the name the physical address and the
[430]
real estate licensing information of the
[432]
woman who runs lives of tick tock after
[435]
the post published the article the woman
[437]
behind Libs of tick tock went into
[438]
hiding that was of course the whole
[440]
point of the exercise people know where
[441]
she lives because the Washington Post
[442]
linked to it so she had to leave now
[445]
Taylor Lorenz of all people knew this
[447]
would happen she knew what she was doing
[449]
when she wrote the story she was trying
[451]
to shut this woman up
[454]
it was just a couple of months ago you
[455]
might remember that Lorenz herself
[457]
complained on television that she was
[460]
being harassed and that no one under any
[463]
circumstances would be allowed to show
[464]
up at her home here she is
[467]
trolls live everywhere can you just
[469]
explain was like can you draw a picture
[471]
of what it is like when a surge of
[473]
harassment hits It's horrifying and it's
[476]
not just me either you know they
[477]
immediately docks you and go after your
[480]
family members they try and look up
[481]
everyone who's ever you know been
[483]
associated with you
[485]
um and it's just completely overwhelming
[486]
and terrifying
[488]
oh they go after your family members can
[490]
we put that picture back up it can
[491]
control them do that this is Taylor
[493]
Iran's outside the family members of the
[496]
woman who run Libs of tick tock the
[499]
other day harassing the family members
[502]
now the tape you just saw comes from
[505]
January then in April just eight days
[507]
ago Taylor Rentals who could not stop
[509]
talking about herself drowning in like
[511]
me
[512]
cried on television
[514]
because she'd been criticized online
[516]
watch I've had to remove every single
[520]
social tie I had severe PTSD from this I
[523]
I contemplated suicide it got really bad
[526]
you feel like any little piece of
[528]
information
[529]
that gets out on you will be used by the
[532]
worst people on the internet to destroy
[534]
your life
[535]
and it's
[536]
so isolating
[538]
and terrifying it's horrifying
[543]
it's overwhelming it's really hard
[548]
it's really hard to be from Granite
[550]
should work for the Washington Post it's
[551]
hard no power
[553]
but if you really think it's hard if
[555]
you're really against that kind of
[556]
behavior why are you engaging in it at
[558]
scale
[559]
so a few weeks later after shooting that
[561]
performance Taylor Wren shows up at the
[563]
door and there's the picture right there
[565]
of a relative of the private citizen who
[567]
post videos to Taylor lorenza's bosses
[569]
don't like and then she posts that
[571]
person's identity online
[574]
so this is obviously an intimidation
[576]
campaign designed to shut down a highly
[579]
effective Twitter feed
[581]
but take one step deeper into the story
[583]
and ask yourself to tailor Lorenz the
[586]
woman you just saw crying on TV because
[587]
she has PTSD did she really do the
[589]
reporting here did she really track down
[592]
the personal information of the woman
[593]
who runs Libs of tick tock please
[596]
of course not she couldn't tolerance is
[599]
not a reporter apart from whining about
[601]
herself on television she has no skills
[603]
she couldn't do a weather forecast in a
[605]
rainstorm she's not a journalist
[608]
she's merely a receptacle for
[610]
information that other people gather for
[612]
their own ends a willing receptacle so
[615]
where did she get this information who
[617]
gave her the identity of the woman who
[619]
runs Libs of tick tock well actually we
[621]
don't have to guess because today's
[622]
Washington Post story answers that
[623]
question the post piece tells us that
[625]
information came from a man called
[627]
Travis Brown Travis Brown runs the quote
[630]
Travis Brown hate speech tracker which
[632]
uses a variety of proprietary methods to
[634]
reveal personally identifying
[636]
information of private citizens who
[638]
stray from the approved storyline
[640]
now who pays for all this that's the
[642]
question well the Travis Brown hate
[645]
speech tracker is funded by something
[646]
called the Prototype fund here's how the
[649]
Prototype fund describes the point of
[651]
Travis Brown's project quote prominent
[653]
right-wing extremist accounts on Twitter
[654]
and Facebook have developed a
[656]
well-documented pattern to distribute
[658]
controversial and extremist content to
[659]
their followers and then delete it
[660]
before moderators have the opportunity
[662]
to react to in other words before it can
[664]
be censored archiving is an important
[666]
element in counteracting this behavior
[668]
and has in many cases led to prominent
[670]
victories in the fight against the
[672]
Supreme extreme right
[674]
extreme right so not all hate speech is
[677]
the same the hate speech tracker does
[680]
not Target the hate speech of BLM riders
[682]
or antifa no only enemies of the Biden
[685]
Administration and the guys at Davos
[688]
how do they do it well Brown's methods
[690]
according to him including using
[691]
automated software to save user account
[693]
names and social media posts long after
[695]
they have been deleted so there's no
[696]
hiding from these people now that
[698]
appears to be a violation of Twitter's
[700]
terms of service not that we care
[702]
because they don't care we reach out to
[704]
Twitter about this isn't this a
[705]
violation they ignored us they suspended
[708]
our account
[709]
what's interesting though is that Travis
[711]
Brown himself appears to be a former
[713]
Twitter employee so again who's paying
[717]
for this
[718]
well a foreign government is paying for
[720]
it the Prototype fund gets its money not
[723]
from private donors but from the
[724]
government of Germany
[726]
Germany's federal Ministry of Education
[729]
it says so right on the website
[731]
in other words what happened to the
[733]
woman who runs lives of tick tock her
[735]
life being destroyed was not the work of
[737]
Taylor Lorenz The Fearless journalist
[739]
who cries on TV from a PTSD no it was a
[742]
foreign intelligence operation designed
[745]
to silence and intimidate an American
[748]
citizen wait is that legal
[750]
did the Biden Administration have any
[753]
role in this particular Intel op why is
[756]
the German government trying to shut
[758]
down an American Twitter account posting
[760]
about American teachers and since she
[763]
was the recipient the Willing recipient
[765]
of this information from a foreign
[766]
government designed to destroy an
[768]
American citizen why hasn't Taylor
[770]
Iran's at the very least registered
[772]
under the foreign agent registration act
[774]
Farah we seem to remember quite a bit of
[776]
talk about this over the last space we
[777]
think there was an impeachment trial of
[779]
it someone went to prison because of it
[781]
but Taylor Lorenz can take information
[783]
from a foreign government to crush an
[786]
American citizen clearly as part of an
[787]
Intel operation
[789]
and she's a journalist in good standing
[791]
at the Jeff bezos's newspaper
[794]
lots of questions here we hope we can
[796]
get the bottom of all of them subscribe
[797]
to the Fox News YouTube channel to catch
[800]
our nightly opens stories that are
[802]
changing the world and changing your
[804]
life from Tucker Carlson tonight
