 Hey everybody, welcome back. Before we get started I do want to let you all know that tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern I'll be debating some people on the topics of cancel culture the George Floyd case and I'm sure some other topics are gonna pop up in there But that's gonna be happening over at Rob. New Wars channel. That's a normal America with Rob. Noor So head on over there. Check out his channel. He's got a great channel and watch us tonight It should be pretty interesting so I wanted to tell you guys about this fact check that I found about a CBS news story and it's really a story that's been played throughout the media and a narrative that we've seen a lot of I talk about it a Lot of my channel about how the media along with the Democrat Party, they will skew statistics They will cherry-pick data and cherry-pick stories all to essentially scare minority populations into the waiting arms of the Democrat Party and they want to frame, you know All the issues to where disagreeing with the Democrat Party is racist. They do this in part with this cherry-pick data and basically giving statistics without any context Which gives people this idea that something is way more widespread than it actually is and this is a great example of that So what we have here is CBS news lies with statistics to overplay surge in Asian hate crimes And this is an article by Ben Whitmore And the bullet points here are that there's an alleged 150% increase in anti-Asian incidents And it's not as devastating as what it what it seems the actual numbers that are used is 73. So there's been 73 Anti-Asian hate crimes the liberal media overplays the study to prove systemic racism exactly And that's that's why you see the only national news stories of a cop shooting a person is only when it's a white cop And they shoot a black person and then all those details all the facts surrounding that don't matter And all that matters is the skin color of the people involved in the media I want you to think that that that person was targeted because of their skin color You know they'll ignore all other details or downplay all other details that work against that narrative But continuing it says study the fact studying the fact sheet cited by the writer demonstrates The liberal media's bias and reporting opinions as fact Exactly, and so what they basically do is they'll show these statistics They won't break it down per capita or you know compare it to the overall population of the United States to show just how actually rare It is they'll just throw out these numbers And I've talked about other examples of this. I've seen CBS news tweet out a wall like a Vietnam War Memorial wall graphic of names of only African Americans black Americans who were shot by police and Nowhere in there is any detail of why they were shot what happened what they did to that led up to that happening Nope, just got to know that all these black people were shot and you could just assume that it was racism and systemic racism Against black Americans and that's exactly what's happening here except for its Asian Americans now continuing on here Circulating on liberal news sites has been a new study to be published later this month from the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism that found quote a nearly hundred and fifty percent surge in anti-Asian hate crimes in 2020 while overall hate crimes fell by seven percent The numbers reflect a growing trend of discrimination against Asian Americans during the coronavirus pandemic and something else about this is when you actually look at Who's committing these hate crimes? It's mostly non-white people. It's it's mostly black men I believe the majority of these attacks But you'll what you'll find is that the media glosses over that and they just sort of blame Oh, well, it's not that these black people have any of their own responsibility They're all just acting because of white supremacy and so they end up just blaming white people For that in reality Smolensky omits crucial context and uses hyperbole to prove her own bias So the major violations of this study in this fact check are that there's missing context there is opinionist fact which this is all so common in our media now and Superficial investigation exactly and that's what I mean by sort of glossing over the facts and details They don't want to do any of that because doing that deludes their narrative There are two issues with this article the first problem being is that is the hundred and fifty percent increase clearly lacks context That would decrease concerns about anti-Asian racism in the US exactly They don't want to decrease I don't want to add context or or give sort of the bigger picture No, because that then people might just be getting along They might look for other solutions that weren't so extreme and divisive You know these far-left Marxist communist groups wouldn't be able to push their agenda that way Which apparently is what the powers that be want now putting aside the fact that there's some variation in hate crime definition This only meant that there was an increase of only 73 incidents reported since 2019 To extrapolate a broad trend of anti-Asian-American racism in the US on the basis of 73 or more incidents since 2019 Going from 49 to 122 incidents has a different meaning than going from 500 to 750 But this kind of hyperbole words like surge and spike is necessary to bolster the narrative precisely they with without the hyperbole without cherry picking without Ignoring inconvenient data without all those things as whole narrative crumbles and they're not able to one push this extreme agenda That they normally wouldn't be able to and to get Democrats into soul power for the next hundred years They couldn't do any of that without this narrative They can't demonize the political their political opposition and the people who are speaking out trying to let the Americans know that they're being Misled here they can't call these people racist and white supremacists and all these these word bombs that they use they can't do that without massaging all these facts without Lying by omission Smolenski does not give us context or further investigation to the study if she did We might find that the hundred and fifty percent increase is not as devastating as it seems to be Dennis Prager who wrote an article about this particular fact sheet gave us some perspective on this shockingly large percentage increase in anti-Asian racism and what Prager says here is dead on I agree 100% and it's what I talk about a lot in my videos when I talk about The fact that in 2020 there were around 250 black people shot by police Okay, that's out of 40 million. That's after millions and millions of interactions throughout that year So if this was an actual widespread targeted systemic problem those numbers would be much higher Which again is why the media has to make it seem like it's higher. This is why they only report on black on certain police shootings and not on others because again if they did that it would dilute the narrative And it would crumble Prager says given that there are 330 million Americans and assuming a different American was responsible for each of the total 122 anti-Asian incidents that would mean that one in every two million seven hundred and four nine hundred and eighteen Americans committed an anti-Asian Incident exactly it's exceptionally rare and the amount of people actually engaged in this is extremely tiny and fringe Which is interesting isn't it because what did we hear for years and years about Islamic terrorism? We heard that it's just a fringe minority. Of course, it was it came out to be several million worldwide who? Who supported terrorism and the name of spreading Islam? So that's a lot of people but we were told that it's just a fringe minority and that's where well in this case It is a fringe minority and it's a tiny percentage of people that it's actually occurring to so this fact-checker tried to contact So this fact-checker tried to contact this fake journalist Through her three different emails that were listed on the stories But she failed to respond to them which isn't surprising because when I was still on Twitter I would reach out to these reporters all the time and they very rarely would respond to me obviously because What are they gonna say they're busted anyway? That's all I have for today I got a busy day ahead of me I don't have a ton of time to edit a video today Which is why I'm doing this sort of off-the-cuff version of one of my videos but I do want you all to hit that like button share and subscribe if you enjoyed it and Make sure to check out the debate tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern over at normal America with Robert and wars channel
