Hey I hope you enjoyed my special guest, "neck pimple". He was scared to join me, but I told him you guys would be cool to him.
I sure did!
No extra charge for Neck Pimple... :)
It's okay, my "nose pimple" would be great friends with "neck pimple" if they got a chance to meet.
hes so sxe, sxephil haha.
The Free Speech being suppressed wasn't Ann Coulter but the college groups. If a University can take an unpopular opinion and make it burdensome and difficult for them to meet or speak, denying equal access to their facilities to student groups, then THAT'S the problem.
Berkeley...again proving how "tolerant" they are.
whatever happened to "I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it" ?
Harry Christopher Antifa happened. Certain outlets of the media preaching hate on a 24 hour basis happened. It's frustrating.
Shit, WTF happened to "You are entitled to your opinion"?
It went the way of the dodo.
+Anime Husky Oh sure, because the media didn't dig that podcast appearance out of their ass right after he was on HBO. They were looking for absolutely anything to bring him down once they saw he was receiving more attention so they had their "journalists" search for any comment that would make him look bad to both liberals and conservatives.
Once they smelled blood in the water, the liberal media machine (and it's legion of followers) proceeded to call him evil when one of their biggest heroes (George Takei) had made a similar statement in a previous interview. But oh yeah, what George said never made headlines...so as usual selective outrage for everyone!
Here ask yourself this: How come the sports writer at GQ was able to keep his job after tweeting that "he hoped Patricia Smith would get beat to death" after her appearance at the RNC while many republicans lost their jobs for tweeting/posting a lot less towards liberals during the election? How come all the major media outlets didn't pick up that tweet and spread it everywhere like they did this week with Jesse Waters offhand comment about Ivanka on "The Five"?
GQ allowed the writer to apologize and change his name on Twitter. If that was the other way around, it would have been a headline on every major site and he would have lost his job.
I'm an independent and far left liberals are the ultimate hypocrites.
Just a question. Could someone say w.e they want for free speech? Because imagine milo coming into my place of work to give a speech. Don't I have every right to kick him out? Is it me opposing his free speech because I just genuinely dislike the guy. Hmmm or should I just let him talk whereever. When do free speech override everything when free speech itself has its limits.
"Fuck Boi apparel", literally spit out my drink all over my self. LOL thank you Phil, I needed that.
MrSuckafish14 You better swallow that shit next time
MrSuckafish14 😂😂
😂 For real PhillyD!
I'm a American Socialist who has my opinion ridiculed and not tolerated much like the less than desirable Ann Coulter. I'm a firm believer in the First Amendment and believe the best way to shoot down "fascism", is to let it be said, then counter it. If you do this enough you get what is called debate. That s what is needed to end someone's ignorant speech, not silencing it.
Agreed.
Ann Coulter's is highly desirable and rare truth teller.
Ann Coulter is more intelligent than all liberals and more than DeFranco. I'm very disappointed in you Philip.
$10k??? I pray I'm lucky enough one day to get me seat taken away.
It wouldnt be $10k in cash, it would be in travel vouchers. In other words, $10k to use on other United flights
Only if it's an actual $10k voucher. They often screw you over by doing things like making the voucher expire soon, or black out dates and destinations, or give you several small vouchers that can't be combined.
So instead of a first class ticket to Fiji, you get $50 off of your next 200 flights to North Dakota on flights taken at midnight between Dec 5th and Dec 20th. All vouchers expire at the end of the year.
Don't bet on it. That's the MAXIMUM amount they'll ever be willing to pay. You'll never reach it.
Shit's gonna be a reverse auction, lol.
One of the airlines actually does that. They ask passengers to say how much they would take to give up their seat then take the lowest bid.
"For freedom of speech, except yours, because I disagree with you!"
Freedom of Speech protects you from the government, not from independent actors such as UC Berkley, therefore UC Berkley is not impinging on anybody's freedom of speech.
berkley is a public college... funded partly by the government they are not aloud to take sides...
Drazahir it also is supposed to protect you from violent rioters that would assault you for having a different opinion. It has failed to do so
+Friendly Faucet but not entirely. So perhaps the private funding might allow them to? Either way, in the one case it was students who wanted him not to come. They're in their right to oppose that (not to the extremes seen, though I doubt they represented a majority of those uncomfortable with his presence). Especially given he's attacked (verbally) specific people in his speeches before, it might be a case of safety and comfort for some rather than "I don't agree!!" I think that kind of reason is a totally valid reason to bar someone from speaking - student safety and comfort. I'm not familiar with how the US runs colleges, but in the UK the student unions are separately run to university faculty and the SU can in some cases no-platform certain speakers.
They really did represent the majority of the "protests" if you've paid any attention to the year and a half.
My grey area when it comes to this story about free speech is that the administration have a duty of care to all of it's visitors for their safety. If they can't guarantee that safety because of expected riots. Should they still hold the event and potentially have that person be harmed? If they don't cancel, they are endangering someone, if they do cancel they are oppressing someone.
Dreadnaught1985 that just gives in to terrorism. the people willingly go, they know what to expect. they are ready to defend themselves against antifa fuckwads
Worker's rights movement didn't end till people got killed. Civil rights movement also had a plethora of casualties. That is unfortunately how things are. Best solution i can think of is to fully disclose what the host's safety precautions are, the expected resistance, and then just say 'look, we can't guarantee your safety in this, are you sure you want to go ahead and do this. Not just to the speaker but to the audience as well. I bet most people who give enough of a crap to turn up to such events will say 'absolutely'.
The speakers should sign a waver, and decided if they want to take the risk. The police, should be required to enforce the law and do their jobs. The speakers should be allowed their own private security. If anyone tries to use violence to harm a speaker, that person should face extra charges by attempting to suppress the freedom of speech at an organized public event instead of joining the debate, perhaps. Like serious felony charges, on top of whatever assault they commit. Most of these rioters should probably be criminally charged.
^yes. We need to start taking a 0 tolerance angle to this shit
Leave it up to the person who would be putting them self into danger. As mentioned already, the speaker should be required to officially agree and accept the potential consequences of what they are about to do, and the school cannot be held accountable if things go sour despite officials' best efforts.
Damn I'm still laughing while typing this comment because of that blood-stained jeans. If I see someone wearing that, I wouldn't think he's painting, but rather think HE's having his monthly period! "Fuck Boy Apparel" Nice one Phil!
Creative North hahaha this manufacturer is a total idiot!
Creative North Even if I'm a rich kid, i will never buy that jeans, ever! that's so dumb!
That's by far the dumbest idea for a jeans i've ever seen
Creative North the only cool thing about that pants, is the name that Phil just gave it: FUCK BOY APPAREL 😃 😄 😁
I mean I'm not surprised at all. Have you ever been in a Nordstrom before and looked at their clothes up close? Speaking as a female, their clothing is about the same quality as shit from Forever21 (or worse) yet 3x the cost for no reason. I've actually made it a joke with my friends to go to Nordstrom, find an ugly piece of clothing, guess how much it costs and then gawk at the absurd prices they try to reach for.
I found a really thin, black, trash-bag-esque skirt on their fucking _clearance_ rack that was "on sale" for $60. If it was thrown into a consignment shop it'd be worth all of $2 and people still wouldn't buy it because of how tacky it looked.
Also once my friend and I saw this (admittedly kind of pretty, but still average looking) black dress with some sequin and mesh fabric in it. It was hanging by itself in display of the aisle so clearly they wanted to show it off as some kind of one-of-a-kind dress. No joke.... it was $1200. For something that looked like an average club-wear dress. Nordstrom is a fucking joke.
As someone who has leaned left for my entire adult life, I'm so embarrassed at the way other people of my party act. I no longer want to have any affiliation with these people. I can have long, intellectual conversations with people who are life long republicans and the conversation is both stimulating and intriguing. I talk to people of my _own_ party and I'm often labeled a racist or sexist because one opinion doesn't align perfectly with their's.
They did have a scene later in the Bill Nye old show where a girl did say their are two sexes and that being born a boy or girl was always 1 in 2, somebody then went out deleted the scene in the old show.
Louder with Crowder had an episode on it
I would like to thank you Philips defranco and everyone and everything that goes into making your show. I have depression and I used to self harm. I have had suicidal thought but people always told me It was selfish to take you own life and end the pain. I have been called selfish and a Faker and liar about my depression and because of that I stopped looking for help. I nearly killed myself a few times and I haven't been happy . that all changed when I found Your channel and a few others. I watched through tons of your video and they made me smile. Thank You ❤
$10,000 to get booted off a flight?... sign me up
Leland Cole yeah but that includes concussion and worrying head wound
Yo Kennedy Still worth it.
Yeah me too. I have bills to pay, especially student loans...
Leland Cole You know that's EXACTLY what United wants right? they want people to see "TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS??? I'll fly unitwd"
Thats the MAXIMUM amount... They didn't even attempt to offer the maximum amount when it was only 1300 dollars, what makes you think they will offer the maximum amount when it is 10,000 dollars?
"I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it."
College students should know and live this quote from day one. I certainly live by it, and everyone else should too. I'm not one to push my political beliefs, but, free speech is important to mankind. Speech is an ability we are meant to have from the moment we are born, the moment you take that away, is the moment the whole world falls apart.
Voltaire
I dunno about you, but China's doing fine.
DAH LITTL' WAGGHH *EVERYBODY. Not just college students. 👍🏻
DAH LITTL' WAGGHH Ann Coulter is cancer though
Evelyn Beatrice Hall, actually, in her book "The Friends of Voltaire." That quotation gets misattributed to him a lot.
Honestly, America lost with the Berkeley/Coulton situation just as much as when Trump cherry picked what media could show up to his public speaking event. Not saying two wrongs makes a right, but rather that the event this week is just as much a travesty against the first amendment as this other event on the other side of the spectrum.
I'll be damned, here I was thinking I just look like a dirty bum and it turns out I'm actually fashionably dressed.
With the Berkeley college thing, every time they cancel another speaker due to protests, they're just showing these protestors that their tactics work. The college is simply encouraging more violence and more oppression of free speech every time they bow down to the will of these violent rioters. Somebody needs to volunteer to speak at the college no matter what happens. To step up and say, "I accept the risk. I will speak, even if there's a bomb threat, or violent protest, or anything. Put me in a bullet proof vest, and get me on that stage." Speakers, and the college, need to show the rioters that they aren't scared, and free speech can not be suppressed forever.
I agree, by not having the speech the violent protesters will see that their tactics work and will likely get worse as a result.
The problem with someone stepping up as you describe is that it isn't just a threat to them, it's a threat to the people going.
They weren't even canceling her appearance, they were delaying it to a time when they would have the ability to provide a safer venue. She canceled on Berkeley.
If everyone just drank more Pepsi all this Berkeley drama wouldn't be happening, dammit.
Fruity -SCS unfortunately, there was plenty of pepsi, they used the cans as weapons. All those people had more hate than pepsi could stop, maybe if they used coke instead.
Dragonfly's Gamer Fuuuuuck you right, you right
Dragonfly's Gamer I disagree, I think a frosty cold Dr pepper could bring world peace
dastardly Lastname Dr pepper is a coke brand, so maybe that would work. Pepsi has failed us and proved the superior soda
Dr Pepper is not even remotely a Coke brand, they do however manufacture it for certain regions.
With every story you cover without taking sides you become more and more my favourite news provider and my personal hero. Keep doing what your doing.
Phil I love your face. Being able to listen to someone so rational at the end of your day of dealing with idiots can be so soothing
I had a discussion with a friend of mine today regarding the Ann Coulter situation. Her opinion being that it was Berkley's right as a 'private entity' to stop her from speaking on campus and that Berkley's reasoning- that they couldn't guarantee a safe environment for the speech- was a completely just one. My opinion is very different regarding this situation. Although I agree Berkley has that right to say reject a speaker, they also have an obligation to provide equal opportunities to all of their students. By saying Coulter couldn't speak and rescheduling it on a day where few students would even be on campus, they were stifling the opportunity for a group of their own students, to learn. On the matter of it 'not being a safe environment,' I believe Berkley could have put precautions into place to make it so it was safe. Bumping up security, releasing a statement to students that if they begin to 'riot' they will be immediately arrested/detained and that they will not tolerate any violent behavior. These things are doable and I am almost certain that if the situation had a liberal speaker and conservative rioters, they would put these precautions into place. It truly upsets me that the college and many of their liberal students aren't practicing what they preach.
i agree with you. people that say "well its not on the campus to protect blah blah" would be singing a whole diff tune if it happened to someone on their side
Tomas Soeldner liberals claim to have a "right" to more than half of someone's income? Sounds rich, go on...
Kelcey Petersen
In my opinion is don't get why people are angry at the University. they are literally just stopping the event because it could be dangerous.
Kelcey Petersen amen.
Kelcey Petersen I hear what you're saying, but there is no such thing as safe when Antifa shows up. Not even an army could subdue that. They want blood and broken bones. They're out to create terror.
Phillip I hope you read this, I would like you to talk about the situation in Venezuela 🇻🇪 I live here things are worse and worse everyday, I know you talk about USA news mostly, but if you could dedicate at least one minute of the show to let more people know what's happening I would really appreciate, you have a space to communicate to people important matters of the world, that's something we don't have in my country we don't have freedom of speech and are being killed by the police, if you want I can even help u to see what's happening. Thanks for your time
i hope he does!! part of my family are venezuelans :)
I have only seen a few pictures of it here and there on Reddit. aside from that i have heard nothing about it. I'd appreciate Phil digging into this
The same happened to my country, Bangladesh a long time ago which ultimately led to a war. But trust me, something good always comes out as long as you stay hopeful :)
Gilda Alexandre I am one of the few people who knows what's going on and cares and ultimately I do believe that good will come from this with free democratic elections but until then stay safe. Much love from Kentucky :)
Agreed, we need to show the world how deadly socialism really is.
Hey Philip, I just recently discovered your channel and have been binge listening. Don't know what video I heard it in but you mentioned Dragon Age Inquisition, which is my favorite video game/franchise. Anyway, just wanted to say I love when you nerd out about movies and video games etc. I agree with so much of your content/opinions, and I love that you leave everything open for people to comment and discuss with you and each other. I hope the universe sends good vibes you and your family and your friends. Love, a new member of the Nation :)
A couple of Canadian stores are selling ripped track suits/sweats it's ridiculous.
"Fuck boy apparel" I'm in tears
More like "FuckBoi apparel".
That one pair looks like someone threw up on them
what America are we living in?! "I disagree with you!!" *riots and destroys property* wtf!?!?!
I may not always 100% agree with everything Phil says....but man he is a freakin awesome guy. And I love that he's always about open discussion and admitting to misunderstandings or mistakes and not trolling people for the mistake, but appreciating the fact that they tried to correct the mistake. We need more people like this. I'm so glad we have figures like this out there that people can hopefully try to emulate...
That Heineken ad was like one of 4 ads I've not skipped in the last 5 years. And again 1 of 4 I actually told friends about. It goes so damn well with this anti-free speech issue too. When you refuse to listen and let yourself be fueled only on hate, you get nowhere fast. Or you do but it's a trip to jail, or hospital.
Also ripped jeans. Might sounds like fun for Rich people to throw money away. But my fake rich dad bought me ripped jeans as a gift when I needed new ones, and I had to suffer because of it. Even in winter. When they are doing these horrible fashion trends, they need to be forbidden from doing them in child sizes. Don't enable these bad parents please.
I'll mud your jeans for $5. It's actually authentic mud, only $5 !
what a steal!
Arai Lol! 😂
Arai Can you do it, but do it slowly...
Damn i have some authentic dirty clothes at my place, starting at 200$ a piece, any takers? I can create real paint stains then drag my ass on the pavement for that rugged look, im an artist =)
I'll wipe my ass with them repeatedly for half that.
Philip, if we were in jail together I'd protect you in the shower
IKnowBestest haha!
IKnowBestest Your Philip Defranco kid video was hilarious. How did you do it and why me?
Sercets M'Boy.
therealgoody 🌳
IKnowBestest *Ass Clenches*
I saw this quote in my social in-class final actually, I thought it really suit here. It was something like "if you don't believe in freedom [to speak] for the ones you despise, you don't believe in freedom at all." I thought that was really accurate.
What a great Thursday this was, just catching up for now..
I totally agree with you on the free speech situation. This culture and what we achieved is build on the concept of free speech and separates us from the hell of a life in countries where they don't have that concept. But as I just watched before I might start thinking about birth control to somehow avoid a total collapse of our planetary boundaries. I keep leaving comments since I really enjoy exactly this concept on your show what somehow connects to the idea of free speech and understanding, exchange of information and also why that Heineken add is super awesome (as they are often)..
I'm happy to be able catching up some news. After quiet a tough time in university (studying International Forest Ecosystem Management in Germany) I'm having finally some time to get a good laugh out of dumb stuff as fake jeans and hilarious gym masters. As much as I'm alienated by the tragic behind the scenes, when we're unable to keep a good laugh to ourselves we might as well be dead already.
You know the world is messed up when someone can't talk because people who disagree are a threat to them with physical violence
Phil should of covered the guy running around UC Berkley and trying to give Pepsi to people fighting. It was truly hilarious.
Sibleader 😂 yeah. That guy was awesome!!!
Sibleader he did on yesterday's show actually!
I must be spacing I'll go watch it lol
Sibleader He was supplying them with projectiles.
Probably the best use for Pepsi anyway.
A friend of mine flew United last month and they lost his bag. They sent out a form last week so he can detail the value of the things in the bag, came out to be like 800 bucks. Looks like United is going to have to pay $1500 because of their new policy.
Crunchyroll ad 🙌🏻
I am just trying to wrap my head around this. You're going to a UC, you are supposed to be the top cut! The hardest working, had connections whatever, you're supposed to be at the top, and yet these kids are scared of other opinions or cry when they realize not everyone is like them.
it's not just an opinion, it's dangerous beliefs threatening the lives and well being of whole groups of people!!!
In before youtube demonetizes...
Sad but true..
lmao XD
LOOOOOOOOOL
not a coincidence that he is covering real news now
did it already happen
I gave up my seat a while ago (I forget the airline, it doesn't matter in this case) but because it was my first time flying, I didn't really know everything about my compensation. The issue was it expired sometime the same year. I'm not that frequent a flier, so of course it expired. Next time i'll be sure to make a few more demands in regards to that.
Best line ever "Sugar poison"-OMG
"No one died on United." Are you kidding? The potential worlds largest rabbit died!
Thumper go bye bye.
Drewsefer89 .............he meant that in this particular united news no one died, so we don't have to worry about that. it was sarcastic as well as he referred to the rabbit death by saying that. get a brain
RIP Simon
+Iris Riedel
Learn to recognize a joke.
Haylla2008 it's a stupid joke..
PRPS--- Profiting-from Rich People's Stupidity. (if that isn't what it stands for, out should be)
you always just "jump into it" haha
I know its not a topic you talk frequently, but could you please talk about the situation going on in Venezuela?
How do Berkley students have so much free time? Damn. I'm in ELCE and had 6 exams - I literally had no time. These students had a day to bloody protest??
The vast majority of the protesters are not Berkeley students, but they are anarcho-communism. If you watch any of the violent protests you will see the black and red anarcho-communism flag. These are just people that live in or around the city of Berkeley, rather then Cal students.
They don't actually go to class. >_>
its mostly antifa anarchist coming in from outside of the campus and bringing in the violence. not saying there aren't violent students there but their numbers come from people who make shutting down these events with violence their careers.
Isn't that trespassing? On our campus, they are legally allowed to call law enforcement or most likely campus security to escort you out, and then file an incident report that is sent to all students, warning them of said person. Happens at most unis. Why not Berkley?
SimmonSays it's not UC Berkeley students!
'I am going to call this fuckboi apparel' Same phill same
well that is holland for ya (talking aboot the heineken part)
If you could send your regards to this family, it would mean so much. Today at around noon, a kid from my school jumped into the water at Lake Ponchartrain to receive his hat that fell in the water. The currents swept him away and police couldn't find his body. Just earlier, they found and identified him. I just ask for your prayers for his family. I didn't even really know him, but he was a good person. Rest In Peace.
I absolutely do not support suffocating free speech in this way. Just bc you dislike an opinion, doesn't mean you have the right to attack the person speaking. No. just NO people.
What if the person speaking is a member of ISIS propagating their ideology? Is that okay to host at a college?
Nik Moore That's exactly what I think about when people say "everyone should have the right to share their ideas", does everyone also include the people whose ideas are harmful to others?
Nik Moore a terrorist is very different. Being a member of a terror group is a crime so they'd be arrested. But if they were an outsider that wished to voice support of ISIS, yes. They should be able to. Like Phil says, they'd be destroyed in literally any debate.
No, because we as a society have establish the limits of free speach.
One of those limits is incitations to terrorism, is in the law, but not letting a person with different political ideology speak is the main reason free speach was created
Nik Moore yep. free speech. Then you can go there, record the speaker and the crowd, and keep tabs on the nut jobs....lol
Seriously though, if someone promoting ISIS ideology DID speak, I think most of the intelligent ppl there wouldn't want to hear it, or would laugh at the idiot who thought speaking about it here was a good idea.
Agreeing they should be allowed to speak and agreeing with what they say are two different things.
Lets start a Go-fund-me to buy Phil some of those douchey pants.
Apparently I have a small fortune sitting at the bottom of my stairs. I take the fuggers out of the dryer and they look the same as when I put them in. I work for my money and currently have two pair of pant's that aren't grimey AF because I just bought them. All of my previous "nice pant's" got down graded because on a moment's notice I might be crawling through a dirty ass crawlspace, attic or just moving around dirty equipment. I do have money but I've earned it.
I agree with you, pretty sad to hear that someone couldn't make a speech without being threatened.
I have noticed this for years. I stopped teaching C# a few years back because despite my classes not having ANYTHING to do with politics, the students would demand to know my opinions on matters, then pillory me for not sharing their EXACT opinions. It got to the point where I felt threatened in my own class for not sharing identical ideals with the students, so I gave up my tenure and wrote a book or two and went back to work in the valley.
Colleges used to be a place where parents would spend a good chunk of money to send their children off to be exposed to differing backgrounds, beliefs, and agendas. That made for all around, well rounded students and adults who were capable of understanding the opposition, even if they didn't adopt their views. Now, it's either "Think exactly what I do or be ridiculed" or "I don't want to hear anything that isn't my opinions filtered through an echo chamber". These colleges have turned into indoctrination centers. The last straw for me was when the faculty started discussing removing MATH from the cirriculum and replace it with "diversity training" instead. Because who needs math, right? It's far more important that they be taught not to think for themselves and only think what others have decided is best.
There is a serious double standard with free speach. Regardless of a person's beliefs, opinions, etc. they should be able to have equal free speach. For free speach to be free speach it can't vary from person to person. Anyone who trys to silence someone's beliefs/ opinions in the name of free speach is hypocritical and dangerously naïve.
Right? See all those conservative universities shutting down the Marxist speakers? No? hmmm...
its speech* bro
Cillian Brouder *tries, but yeah, I agree that you can't go around deciding who gets to give a speech and who doesn't. obviously you can protest peacefully, but forcefully stopping it is fucked up. if you disagree with the speaker don't go to them, ignore them, or debate, but this thing people are doing where they riot and destroy things just because they don't like something is stupid, this is not a video game, and they're toddlers that can't control their temper tantrums. I'm not conservative by any means, but this shit pisses me off.
I agree entirely! As soon as you take away someone's right to free speech you turn into someone I don't want to even associate with. But as two awesome people said:
“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”
― S.G. Tallentyre, The Friends of Voltaire
And my personal favourite
“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an ass of yourself.”
― Oscar Wilde
3:06 reminds of me of star ways episode 3 haha
I would never fly with untied as I would be constantly worried about how I would be treated during the flight 😥
"I do not agree with what you say, but I'll defend to the *death* your right to say it" -Voltaire
Then you probably are also incapable of understanding enlightened thoughts proposed by figures, Such as the candid Voltaire, whom have shaped the Western World
Nice! Ad Hominem and Strawman! Lets see if we can get a triple
But Voltaire didn't actually say that?
Sean Joshua Castillo there wasn't a strawman argument
Wasn't actually Voltaire who said that, but it does represent his feelings towards free speech.
I don't like Ann Coulter, but definitely feel a great sadness to her being silenced. If she can be silenced, we all can be too. That is the scary part.
DonutCare She wasn't silenced. They gave her a time and a venue but she refused it. Now she's playing the victim. It was nothing but a publicity stunt on her part.
DonutCare nah, you have nothing to worry about. The left is never silenced. Only conservatives.
G.I. José I read the 4-page demand letter, sorry but her treatment was unjustified and caused by domestic terrorists.
Bill didn't say it yes but the next segment did say it and was edited out on for Netflix

for some reason i read the last part as the character from the haryhi movie
It is amazingly heart warming to hear good credible people standing for free speech. Agree with the speech or not, the right to say it is paramount. Amazing video Phil.
I saw that sneaky pop up of the words "Semen" and "or that" I thought I was tripping... then I laughed
I finally got an ad on one of Phil's videos!
Wait, an advertiser friendly Philip DeFranco Show?
I thought I would never see the day
Naw bro, he said the word "fuck", that's enough for CZcams to be like "omg you went too far, no ads"
M.C Rick not really he talked about free speech and politics 🤷🏻♀️
Now is probably the best time to fly with the airline. They will be walking on eggshells trying not to mess up, you will probably get much better customer service because they cannot screw up 1 more time, or they will almost be finished. Think customers have them over a barrel at the moment.
ellisd82 valid argument, agree 100%! So be it if they aren't willing to give up the 10K "incentive" and that makes them treat their customers better. I'd be more likely to book United now than I ever have been. Also, I've seen news posts where they have settled with the victim. Not sure for what/how much but they have settled and are giving it the proper attention. Good on them.
My friend flew with United the day after the initial incident. Apparentiy most passengers kept making dumb jokes about it that the staff unfortunately didn't seem to enjoy. apparently the service was really cold and mechanical, my friend guessed they had been instructed not to comment or react to any jokes made about what had happened!
Sad part is, you will probably get more of those fuckwads that will try everything in their power to incite such shit now, trying to get that sweet compensation.
LMAO At jeans. I use to steal my fathers bricklayers jeans and wear them to high school and now it's hip to rock Carhart clothes.
The only reason I can't get 100% behind condemning people protesting (but can get behind condemning violence) is that this is a prestigious university validating and giving a voice to ignorant, hate filled garbage.
I'd be angry too if a university was so anti intellectual that they host a caricature of my racist uncle back in rural Tennessee instead of, idk, someone worth a damn.
They have a right to speak, but WHY a prestigious university? Why not a community college in rural Oklahoma?
While I disagree with Milo, Coulter and many right-wing thinkers, preventing them from speaking is ridiculous. It just strengthens the political divide. It's doing nobody a favour.
I'm starting a new business, i'll drag your jeans through the mud for $500
Damn fine business practice.
Phil don't like that fakery... wonder if he'd be "Fuq-gurl" chicken fillets amd push-up bras?
cd0 cd0 fuq yea
cd0 cd0 Take my money!
I've got a pair of blue jeans that are mostly black now thanks to 30+ hours in the garage trying to seal the leakiest engine I've ever seen. I'll let you have them for $250 :D
Heh, I knew this was coming. I said years ago "Ugh, designer rips, designer fading, you know designer stains is next." and bam! Designer stains.
You're good man. Keep doing what you are doing!
Chance for $10,000? I'll fly United, but I'm still bringing my mouth guard, just in case.
Divinion 😂😂😂😂
hehe, don't forget the football helmet and spiked bat, just in case ;)
PRPS: Pretty rich, pretty stupid
Regarding United Airlines, I just flat out don't fly any more unless It is absolutely and logistically unavoidable. I hate the TSA security checks, the cramped conditions, the layovers, the sometimes insane ticket price volatility, and the sheer inconvenience of it all.
I honestly forgot Milo existed till I saw your thumbnail lmao
Okay, now I kinda want a "Fuckboi Apparel" shirt/hoodie just for the memes... Please make it happen Phil
Hmmm... I NEED it.
United still didn't say any thing about that bunny in that where are the bunny rights on planes
Rest In Peace Big Bunny
blub fish Aka, RIPBB
Don't jump to conclusions, peoples. :>
Ok, I'm liberal AF, and I have complicated thoughts about the Ann Coulter situation. As things stand, I think it's terrible that they were forced to cancel her speaking engagement due to safety concerns. There were so many other ways to peacefully and effectively (two things that don't always overlap) protest her message and even her presence. If she was booked and had a receptive audience, she absolutely should have the right to safely speak her piece. No matter how reprehensible I personally find it.
But I also think that no one *owes* someone a platform to share their opinion, which seems to be the complaint in a lot of situations similar to this one. If someone has something to say and I object to their message, I have no moral or ethical obligation to give them a space to spread their message on a platform that I control. For example: I don't expect to publish my think piece on preventing antisemitism on Breitbart. They are well within their rights to refuse to let me on their site. By the same token, a lot of the arguments about free speech restriction is that conservatives find themselves unwelcome in liberal spaces. If you were invited or if you have a receptive audience, you should absolutely be able to safely share your outlook. But so many snowflakes make a huge stink when they're disinvited due to a conflict of values. If you were invited to a venue or platform because you intentionally obscured or misrepresented your message, they have every right to bar you from using that platform once the truth comes to light. It's important to make the distinction between scenarios like this one with Coulter, where her safety was genuinely threatened, and other situations where people throw a hissy fit because they were barred from somewhere they had no right to be in the first place.
Also, Phil, I disagree with you that letting idiots share their message wherever they please will lead to their own undoing. It's much more likely that they'll manage to successfully spread their idiocy. Look who became president! You yourself have repeatedly debunked a lot of his alternative facts. But they didn't seem to hurt him at all, considering he managed to win the presidency. I'm not saying that restricting free speech is the solution. But "they'll eventually become their own undoing" is not a good defense because just as often it turns out to be the opposite.
Nike needs to come out with some pre-tied shoes to showcase my bunny-knot skills.
I just added this to the long list of reasons why I love Phil -> 9:18
lol
Phil dropped the f-bomb... I guess this isn't going to be monetized.
fuckin' JWS
thewaydownmachine loom what???
I think I just found a new job, buy tickets to oversold flights
I'm not feeling the muddy jeans either. But you kinda sounded like my mom and grandma when they talk about kids these days buying jeans with pre made holes LMAO

The Heineken ad was great. Still tastes like cat piss though ...
Vodka tastes like soap.
Welcome to adulthood.
Tevo77777 i feel personally attacked by that fake statement
How do you know what cat piss tastes like? Bar bet?
Beer tastes like soap too....
So does moonshine....
Effectively, it all tastes like soap.
Thank God it gets you drunk though.
Tevo77777 I like beer just not Heineken . Give me a nice Krononbourg 1664 ! :D
00:45 just realised Phillip is wearing a rooster teeth hoodie
Philip DeFranco you should talk about the fyre festival lol
United should be forced to pay all airlines like 200 million dollars, not so much because of forcing the raise in how much they can pay for kicking someone off, but because thanks to them it's much more common knowledge that there is a cap.
EVERY TIME I fly if they overbook and start with "Who is willing to give up their seat for $100" I will say FUCK YOU I want $10,000.
And even if someone else says "Oh I'll take the $100" I will shout "Hold out for $10,000 idiot"
If every overbooked flight cost them 10 grand, they'll stop overbooking flights tomorrow.
yeah. hold out for 10,000. they will totally pay you that instead of just...physically removing you from the plane.
Mr. Divery Nice to meet greedy Americans. No wonder so much of the world hates us.
@coned They already said they won't so physically remove... yeah they will totally pay you instead.
@FLOODOFSINS No greedier than literally anything else in the whole world that is up for sale. There is no member of ISIS or person in North Korea going "I was just about to love America but now that airline passengers demand the maximum pay out I hate them more."
@elzizo01 whole class dedicated specific to game theory economics, no. Classes on Economics in general and game theory economics as part of said class... yes.
It's interesting that you just threw out a term rather than explain what you feel makes it relevant to what I said, but okay.
I'm not sure YOU understand economic game theory. On an overbooked flight the airline MUST get someone to give up their seat. Thus giving all the power to the passengers. If all the passengers know they could get up to $10,000 for their seat then THAT becomes the starting point for negotiations.
So fine they don't pay $10,000 every flight. They pay $9000 this flight $7000 the next flight. Whatever, whatever. If they are paying over thousands of every damn flight, they will stop overbooking.
The point is, people need to know how much their seats are worth.
They say you become who you hate, which is one of the reasons you should love your neighbor and listen to him but tell him/her when you disagree, but what do I know I'm a calm and nice guy that just gets yelled at by radicals on both sides
Legonist1 i hear you
That jean segment lmao
When in high school all of my teachers told me that while you are in school " You have no rights on school grounds. You have to obey the rules of the school. You can make you're opinions made and we can have discussions but ultimately when you're in school we make the rules" this was for all students even those who were of age. Colleges being private institutions a lot of times such as Berkeley isn't just a school but private property so therefor I can understand why they might censor some things though ultimately a college should encourage discussion on both sides. It's very likely they don't want their students exposed to negative or deceitful people as they're impressionable and they don't want hateful or nonfactual speech to be seen as okay just becuase a guest encouraged it. There was a public speaker who had very conservative and racist views coming to a local college to speak about his opinions on immigration which were very biased in my town despite a population of a lot of immagrant students. The school was going to cancel his speech but instead let him speak anyway. Is it against free speech? I don't personally feel so because there's a time an place. When in school speakers should be people who are factual or who can lead a discussion not a personal opinion.
I am genuinely concerned for students in my generation. I go to Berklee (different one), which is also a relatively liberal community made in part to our diverse student body. However the idea of diversity to me does not come from just the people around me. But opinions, stories, and attitudes that come from different experiences other than my own. And I rely on those to learn new ideas and maybe even embrace them so that I can be more accepting. For that to me is true diversity and if we shut out all ideas that we consider unacceptable, then how can we say our current idea are acceptable?
*PHIL SUPPORTS FREE SPEECH YAY! = : )*
have you not seen the plastic 'jeans' by topshop? haha
Hey Mr DeFranco today i had this moment where i realized the preciousness of our species. And all it took was your link to that Heineken add. The true importance of interaction and discussion between each other is the crucial ingredient to our survival. Be good to each other people we are all much too important
(sinister jester) old wizard voice: BEHOLD! The aftermath of a bean burrito ! THIS!! SHALL NOT!!! PASS !!!!!
i love how you keep calling the ceo of united the "reaccommodater" as if it his official title.💖💖💖💖
Omg those pants had me laughing soo hard! But don't tell Alex Hughs that cuz I'm pretty sure he bought some...
Might want to amend your Bill Nye segment after the deleted scene talking about genders surfaced.
