[@Majinblaze]

The definition of "marriage" that Joe proposes here is actually the definition of "Civil Union." The two are not interchangeable because they have different origins and purposes. Matt is 100% correct on this - even if he couldn't quite articulate it in this session. Marriage is the recognition of spiritual AND legal union - coupled with the expectation and opportunity to form a new family unit. A civil union is the recognition of two individuals who love eachother and want to dedicate themselves legally to that coupling. There is a REASON that gay people want "mariage" and not "civil union" - and that's the connotation that the term brings -- To set out on a journey of building a family together and becoming parents for the next generation is such a big deal to human beings (since time immemorial) that we have always gone out of the way to celebrate these unions in a big way. A civil union doesn't get the same treatment societally because it is, literally, just designed for the happiness of those involved. It brings with it no such glorification, because it's not a proclamation of one's willingness to further the species and/or participate in societal customs. It's just two people saying "this one's mine." The problem, as Matt tried to explain, is that modern society has completely lost touch with this fact - and is treating them interchangeably. The result is that marriage as an institution has been degraded of all of it's value and is treated identically to civil unions - The only noteable difference now is that mariage comes with a few extra legal benefits. More and more young people are so disillusioned / removed from greater society and no longer see the value of marriage. Young men especially, since signing those papers essentially gives the women absolute control over their lives - with the opportunity to ruin them entirely and walk away scot-free. When marriage is degraded to "just a legal document" that "says you love eachother," more and more young people are asking "well...why is that needed then? Why sign my life away unnecessarily?"

What I think Matt failed to say: marriage was initially intended to be within the confines of the Church. The government adopted it legally to monopolize and incentivize with tax breaks. More government intervention. As far as everything else, moral relativism leads to a “freedom” of chaos and hedonism.

[@athenametzger9269]

I was surprised by Matt not hitting that home. To me that’s an unforced error on his part in the dialogue. He’s too smart to leave that out-maybe there’s another reason, like an agreement with Rogan?? The Biblical framework/covenant for marriage and family is, to me, irrefutably the best design, but flawed humans mess it up through sin, selfishness, abuse, etc. When God is left out of the marriage, and divorce becomes rampant, you end up with the trainwreck American society faces today.

[@DarinTWright]

@@athenametzger9269 Matt didn't push the Christian perspective on the subject because he knew in Joe's eyes that would immediately discredit his argument in it's entirety. While marriage is an extremely important tenant of Christianity, it is not JUST a Christian and/or religious issue. Marriage exists in virtually every culture and religion on Earth. Focusing solely on the Christian point of view would lead to Joe, and thousands of others who hold his same perspective, not even considering the points Matt was trying to articulate about the importance of traditional marriage to society as a whole. Coming from a Christian Conservative, we have to learn to argue on subjects such as this without even bringing theology into it. In the eyes of many people who are on the fence about certain hot topic issues such as abortion, the moment we bring our personal religious beliefs into it they feel that we aren't thinking logically, and are simply spouting religious rhetoric at them.

[@nonosays]

Marriage has never been looked upon in any society throughout history as merely a construct of Man, it has always been seen as a creation of God and Nature and merely recognized as such by Man. This is so fundamental it defies any disagreement. It is because man and woman alone carry the procreative potential that marriage has been seen as the building block of society. It is a new thing to say now Marriage is a lifestyle choice based on individual feelings. A formal acknowledgement of a gay union might be a good thing, but it can never replace the purpose of Marriage for society. This is a fundamental change in the way society has been ordered since recorded time. We will, as Matt suggests, see in time what this change has yielded for society and our civilization.

[@Josh-m5u]

The whole second half of this podcast really put on display how joe is only able to see reality through a hedonic lens.. from devorce, to the choìce of childless union, to people prefering same sex relations... everything he said was on wants and feels... total hedonism. Marriage is duty not choice. Sex for pleasure is an immoral selfish act. No one is born gay, some kids just never have their narcissism checked by a strong father and a loving mother in a proper marriage and so they come up with warped perceptions of sexuality and self to societies detriment.

[@chloesanders3631]

Once it gets to that point though, the source of degradation will likely be skewed and/or ignored completely by the majority. Not trying to be a negative nelly, it's been a pattern of human history to twist said history for one's own personal gains

[@snu3877]

Conservatives were laughed at/derided for saying the legalization of gay marriage was the beginning of a slippery slope. And here we are. Once gay people achieved their goal, they had to figure out where to turn their attention and funds. They chose trans rights, although many gays are either unaware of that or furiously backpedaling away from that.

[@CipherDiaz]

Its not that clear cut. The idea of marriage that we have today came in through christianity. Roman law, greek law, asian law, ancient egyptian law -- they were all different. Marriage in roman and greek terms had nothing to do with love. In fact, up until the middle-ages the very idea that you married for love was regarded as absurd. Your parents picked for you, often in a strategic way to join families and obtain wealth. So the idea of romantic or "love" based marriage is a relatively new notion. Christianity did not care about the love aspect either until the age of the chivalry. People really need to read history, including the darker aspects

[@MsJom123]

@@CipherDiazindeed. That is the individual level it affects. The societal is less children. We are living that out heavily at this point. The west is well below replacement level at this point. The need in a society to at minimum keep replacement rate cannot be understated. This is why couples that marry and don’t have children actually do hurt other people. The economy suffers, the social programs become more burdened, the next generation of workers disappear and on and on. Then amplify those problems even further by saying anyone can get married and it doesn’t matter at all. The two same sex cannot naturally have children and that won’t help. Then if they do decide they want children they will have to use surrogacy or something. In this method they are intentionally depriving the child of either the actual mother or father. In some cases both. (This is especially egregious as a child has a right to be raised by their biological mother and father. Does that always play out, unfortunately not. In cases where the parents did something to lose those rights for the safety of the child or something. However as a society we shouldn’t start with that.) And that is all to fulfill their desire to have kids. A good thing in it itself but done in the most selfish way possible. Certainly marriage as it has historically been defined is better for everyone it impacts.

[@Daagon309]

Matt Walsh is clearly a devout Catholic and says it multiple times during the interview (Having four kids, the reason behind why he has his podcast is to create a cultural space, mentioning the church and marriage connection unprompted (read, for Catholics). The Daily Wire was started by a devout Jew who had a very similar argument with Rogan on marriage in a separate episode (Ben Shapiro) and also features Jordan Peterson who is also a devout Christian (Peterson will never directly mention his religious influence because he's a Canadian, and Canadians see that as taboo to discuss openly, unlike Americans). Joe Rogan is not religious, though he's a spiritual person. He was raised by hippies. Joe and Matt have fundamentally different values in how they were raised and see the world very differently. Marriage is now a state institution and not a religious institution, and this is a gap that many religious people simply don't wish to give credence true, no matter how true it happens to be. I'm impressed they were able to have a civil conversation about these differences in viewpoints, though Matt could have saved us a bunch of time by just saying "I believe this because I'm a Catholic." because he regurgitated all the talking points of the Catholic church and continued to politely avoid Joe's verbal sledgehammers.

[@cherylg9074]

Great conversation about marriage. I converted to Catholicism to be married in my fiance's church. 15 years and 3 children later, he wanted a divorce. We got pregnant by choice, and one of the reasons for that choice is that we could afford 3 children with both of us raising them, and we could parent them together. When he divorced me, he left me to raise those 3 children alone. All 3 children are now grown and have mental health issues, both from their abandonment by their father, and because I needed to leave them home alone to work because my income was now all we had to pay housing costs, food, clothing, etc. It was too much for me to provide for them alone. I never wanted the divorce, but was forced to accept this life he chose for me when he decided to leave us. I 100% agree with Matt that divorce is too easy. Both parties should want it. If he was going to have to be unhappy in our marriage, maybe his unhappiness would have been much better than the damage done to these children who had to be raised in a single family household with the economic struggles and lack of supervision that single parent families have.

They love to mock conservatives and libertarians as being brainwashed, but we actually believe in objective truth, science, reality, data, science. They are the ones that believe things that are objectively false. We can prove what they believe is factually incorrect. But they still will not change their mind. It’s literally 1984 and precisely as Yuri Bezmenov described. During pride I I got into fights on Instagram with very radical & privileged very attractive white women in their 20s and 30s. They loved saying go away old white man. And of course they arrogantly thought they were being funny and profound. I would immediately point out that they have a soft privileged life thanks to old white men. Everything they use and enjoy daily and take for granted was invented by an old white man. They have the right to vote because of old white men. They have freedom thanks to old white men. The reason they can even have a pride parade and the rights enjoyed by homosexuals today is because of old white men. So show some respect & appreciation.

I think Joe doesn’t really buy that the family unit is the basic building block for society to be good. Having a high quality society is not valued these days maybe because we have not experienced it recently.

[@woodandwandco]

The family is the fundamental building block of the society. Society is the larger family. If the society is not a single family, it is low-quality. A fractured society is a larger, fractured family. Families are a form of social embedding as old as evolution itself. Social embedding is a prerequisite for a high-quality society of any lifeform we are familiar with. Unfortunately, the enemies of all-human potentiation figured out a simple trick: convince children their parents are ignorant perpetually by embedding subtext in family-focused media (cartoons, children's edutainment films, holiday films, social dramas, etc.), by redirecting their interests away from the norm perpetually by funding novel socio-political constructs (feudalism, industrialism, communism, capitalism, techno-feudalism, etc.) The modes of governance are shifted generationally and intentionally to perpetuate the permanent disabling of families emerging from poverty or providing legitimate socio-economic instruction across generations. It is an old technique, as old as society itself, but the majority are too plugged in to the constructs to figure the totality of the system out.

They took their role seriously.

@mepatton an appeal to definition for a cultural construct like marriage is the lowest form of argument you could make, if it can even be called an argument. That was the definition in 1884 for those particular, very serious men. Their definition doesn't extend to the infinite future.

[@mepatton]

@@TheFloridaBro You're entirely wrong. The definition laid down in 1884 was mostly definitely NOT "the defition for those particular, very serious men," it was the OBSERVABLE RECOGNIZED DEFINITION of society as far back as they could document it. You demonstrate no comprehension of how dictionaries came to be, and no awareness that the English speaking world is not the only society which has recognized what marriage is. You will not find any significant different in the understanding of what marriage is in any society in the history of the world, regardless of the language they spoke. Marriage isn't a "cutural construct" as you #RegressiveleftistDipshits use the term. It is an observed action ("to marry") and an observed state of being ("marriage").

[@Local_Shark_Enthusiast7462]

I wish the film was on public places for those extremely misinformed people this film is aimed for. Love your work Matt 🫶

[@patrickboyle932]

Matts not in the business of informing people. He's in the business of making money by talking about things that he is entirely unqualified to talk about.

Marriage has become more of a legal status for taxes and protections under the law than a sacred union between two people. Society is slowly devolving.

[@jimbob9407]

Do you know why the tax incentive is there?

[@billmara7215]

This is a great conversation by two thoughtful people and no hatred. Thank you both.

[@ancientnpc]

Thanks so much for this. One thing Matt hinted at but did not expand on is that one of the motivators for the people behind this is "age of consent". Once you lower the age of consent for something as major as genital surgery, you open the age of consent for everything related. This is a long game to normalise child abuse of all types. Think it through people. Why do you think they are inventing terms like "minor attracted person". This is about normalising the word my post will be deleted for.

This was the best. I'm gay and I'm a fan of Matt Walsh. I understand his stance on gay marriage. Mostly. I loved how Joe so respectfully probed Matt and getting Matt so close to agree with Civil Unions for gays. I was on the edge of my seat! This was so exciting!

Matt is so well spoken, his way of explaining with a dry sense of humor just gets my goat

[@lasagnasux4934]

A lot of people don't get his humor. Like the time he off-handedly and hyperbolically called anime 'satanic' all kinds of news outlets were railing against him over this obvious joke. And it's Matt, so once they started attacking him on it, he doubled and tripled down.

[@orderfirst8907]

I went into my local supermarket. I asked. "What is a shopping cart?" The other shoppers became triggered and started screaming at me. I had to leave. The shopping carts in the parking lot started chasing after me. I have been stalked by shopping carts ever since. Thanks, Matt Walsh.

It’s really wild, the achievement that documentary has been for Matt. I’ve followed him for years, since I was a teenager, when he was just writing blogs on sites like The Blaze and doing videos in his car. I just knew him as “oh it’s that Catholic guy Matt Walsh that always spits facts in his blogs” and I followed him on FB. Then he joined the DW and has done great there, but wow, to think that now he’s the guy who created a documentary (of great quality) that’s really become a cultural, historical accomplishment, that became a widespread phenomenon amongst not just those on the right side of the aisle, and was actually very compelling, whether people want to admit it or not. QUITE the achievement!

No, this is purposeful, the current administration has weaponized the FBI and the DOJ to police and censor free speech - there was a senate hearing in which it was made evident that at one point there were not only ex FBI members working for Twitter, the FBI was spending a staggering amount of time in their offices. Why? It wasn’t for a field trip that’s for sure.

Real conversations! Thank you!! Only Joe Rogan gives us a space to listen and to ask the questions for us.

[@SancLunatic]

The debate on marriage was really good. Its one of the rare debates where even though I may agree a little more with one side, both Joe and Matt articulated their arguments well.

[@ccoddington]

Seemed like Joe tried to steamroll him at certain points but Matt showed great patience.

[@Davtheimpaler]

Homosexuals had the chance to have Civil Unions that would give them all the rights to inherit , power of attorney etc but they refused that. That's how you know they wanted to change the fundamental definition of marriage.

[@fredricks8701]

Conservatives fought against civil unions and used every trick in the book to try to be able to legally discriminate against thrm. Thats why the word marriage was important. Blame your own pprejudice. Anyways im enjoying my legal gay marriage.

[@TyronIrani]

@54:00 Joe agrees that once you are an adult you can decide to do what you want to your self. I think it is not right to allow an adult to go through surgery without a mental assessment. People suffering from disorders are sent to rehabilitation centers and given medical treatment. People who can cause self harm or have suicidal tendancies are not just allowed to do what they please. We care for and assist such individuals in our societies. So why is it ok for an individual to just turn up to medically mutilated themselves and doctors agree to do it without any detailed mental assessment done?

[@WeaponSpear]

Matt's more coherent position that isn't really delved deeply into within this discussion is the following: It should be illegal for doctors to perform those kinds of "surgeries" on people. Sure, people can decide what they'd like to do to themselves, but particularly in this case, people cannot perform a surgery or prescribe themselves controlled substances. That's where the complicit doctor comes into play.

[@corvonics6383]

Yeah we live in a free country. Get over it or move to China

[@sarahshannon1454]

First do no harm! If an adult wants their arm removed for no other reason than they longer want it ,no one should allow any member of the medical community to perform such a heinous act. Further more ,this same principle should be applied to genitalia.So no…adults shouldn’t be allowed to do whatever they want to their own bodies just because the body is their own.Even suicide is illegal.

[@schirmc1]

Yes. And the medical community isn’t always honest about the results. Knee and back surgeries are sometimes sold as a fix all for pain but many times it causes more harm. Many doctors are only in it for the money. I know many good doctors but not all are that way.

[@erickaufmancustomguitars1351]

I had a friend in high school who had an identity disorder. He was about 117 pounds soaking wet but thought he was that big dude from walking tall. His nose got broken a couple times before I met him and a few times after. Not by me mind you, but by his own mouth and his attitude in a rather enticing manner. Ahhhhhh I miss the good old days when people cared enough about helping each other grow.

[@ginger7098]

OMG! Joe Rogan, giving new meaning to the word obtuse. I don’t even agree with Matt Walsh on this issue, but how can you not see that he is talking about the cultural impact, not how it affects his own marriage?!?!

[@FlorentinaBray]

Yea obviously, but Rogan is arguing the point that not everyone has to see everything the same.. because how how people that get married but cannot conceive.. so their marriage then also becomes pointless? Even Abraham in the bible had a hard time conceiving with his wife.. but their marriage wasn’t irrelevant…

[@robj2583]

What is the cultural impact of allowing gay people to marry? In your opinion

[@ChrisWhite.fishing]

Rogan is looking at MICRO level, making up some hypothetical "what if cases", that represent 0.0000001% of society, when Walsh is talking about fundamentals at MACRO level. Redefining fundamentals (like marriage), which are foundational for, clearly decaying society, because of that, by pondering to some miniscule population of sexual deviants is clear sign of shallow and hedonically dogmatic blindness.

[@Neelinmact]

Well can’t you see that Joe rogan is talking about impact on individual because of how there sexuality and love is being denied through ultra conservative values

[@27manduh]

​@@Neelinmactexcept no one is denying their sexuality or love, just refusing their insanity. If they don't want folks talking about it, then why are they doing everything they can to make folks talk about it?

[@jacinda1385]

24:10 What gets me is the outright hatred of self. The touted line is that this movement is about embracing yourself, but in practice what we’ve seen is the utter objection to oneself to the point of lifelong pain & suffering. As if outward projection is a cure all for suffering that began inside. As if we as humans are not our ((entire)) organism, but just a culmination of ideas. It truly is madness and while I lean towards compassion, I refuse to enable this self hatred.
