...we, two comedians working in a woke industry, interviewed Posie Parker, a controversial gender critical activist on our Youtube channel. We knew we were risking having our channel deleted, demonetised or getting a strike. When we released it YT deleted it for "hate speech" and
...gave us a warning (basically the first step to having your channel deleted).
We organised a media fightback and it was eventually reinstated, reaching millions of people.
We've interviewed authors and academics who studied this issue and raised the alarm like this:
And this:
And this:
We've also interviewed trans people who are critical of the extremes of gender ideology, like this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
We've also highlighted the cancel culture that punishes people who speak out against it, like this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
When @MattWalshBlog made What is a Woman? we interviewed him about it and I wrote a positive review of the movie on my Substack which was seen by a lot of people:
You could count on the fingers of one hand the number of British comics and satirists who are willing to mock this crazy ideology. @francisjfoster and I are two of them:
In the speech I explicitly warn about the threat to our values from this ideology, call wokeness "a new form of racism that we must all oppose" and more.
My book, An Immigrant's Love Letter to the West, addresses the same issues and has been widely read, including by people who
didn't already agree with me when they started reading it. This (persuading people) is important to me because I believe that is how we win.
We win by persuading the silent, scared, uninterested and uninformed...
...majority that we are right, both factually and morally.
I don't believe calling individual trans people ugly is the way to achieve that. Clearly some people disagree and that's fine.
But it is a disagreement about tactics. It does not make me "cowardly" or "idiotic" and
...I'd appreciate it if you take that back.

1/ Liked my viral Oxford Union speech? You'll want to read these viral threads:

Why People Are Vaccine Hesitant
The way @jordanbpeterson has been treated by the media class from day 1 is highly symptomatic of where we are as a culture.
The fact is that a powerful minority want men to be weak, incompetent and feeble. They don't understand that in doing so they are sowing the seeds of...
...their own and our entire society's downfall.
Did you notice that the most common question journalists tried to use against him was "the majority of your audience are men so bla bla". You can only ask that question if you believe there's something wrong with men. No one...
...attacks make-up brands because the majority of their customers are women.
The attempt to undermine, subvert and problematise healthy masculinity is guaranteed to backfire.
First, it makes us vulnerable to OTHER cultures which raise men to be strong and capable. Second...
Overnight, @ShellenbergerMD released evidence of the FBI deceiving the media and social media companies into censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story. This is Watergate+.
How are the British media covering it?
The BBC does not cover it at all. Instead it leads with strikes (understable) and the second story is Jab 6.
The Times does not cover it at all. Soldiers are upset about red tape though.

This week @DouglasKMurray wrote a piece in the Spectator entitled How To Save the BBC. For the record, Douglas is a friend and one I respect enormously.
His ability to avoid falling into partisan traps and talking point regurgitation is an example to anyone who attempts to think clearly and speak honestly in public.
I agree with much of what he says, too:
“Bashing the BBC is something of a leitmotif for non-lefty columnists, and I don’t especially like doing it, mainly because like most of us I have certain happy memories of the broadcaster”.
