Well, folks, there's one kind of young person that Democrats like, and there's one kind of young person that Democrats really don't. The kind of young person Democrats like, as it turns out, the theater kid. That is the type, the theater kid. And when I say the theater kid, I mean very specifically performative young people who cast aspersions at everyone who is older than they are, cast blame.

Those people are tools of the Democratic Party. They are tools of the left. The left does not wish to generate young people who are self-sufficient, who create things, who are innovative, who are trying to build for the future. Those young people are kind of bad. They're part of the system. What they want are young people that they can use as batons to wield against the system.

38.121 - 52.586 Ben Shapiro

The young people who are bad are the people who are actually good at things. Those young people who might be, you know, engineers, who might be building companies, who might be innovating. Those young people... They're too weird. We can't allow them anywhere near the levers of power.

52.626 - 73.752 Ben Shapiro

This has come to a head today because the left has decided that the worst young people in existence work for Elon Musk's doge. And this has specifically become a central feature of the democratic angst because there is one young person in particular, a young technologist. who is being targeted by Wired Magazine and now the entire unified left. Why?

74.172 - 99.025 Ben Shapiro

Because this young technologist is known online as Big Balls. Yes, that's a meme. It turns out that many of the people who are in sort of online meme world, which is Elon Musk's domain. Elon is the king of meme world. That if you are in that world, you tend to throw out silly memes, foolish names for yourself, silly nicknames.

99.466 - 116.363 Ben Shapiro

And meanwhile, you're using AI technology to decode thousands of years old memes. encrypted Greek texts, basically. So you're doing genius things, but also you're doing super stupid things by calling yourself big balls on LinkedIn. Apparently, Wired is very angry about this.

116.383 - 132.531 Ben Shapiro

They had a report that says that a young technologist known online as Big Balls, who works for Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency, has access to sensitive U.S. government systems. But his professional and online history call into question whether he would pass the background check typically required to obtain security clearances. Yeah, sure.

132.891 - 150.225 Ben Shapiro

That is the thing that I think people are deeply worried about, is whether they would pass a security clearance, the kind of security clearance that, for example, allowed Biden administration appointees to full-on leak Israeli war plans to the press. Those security clearances have been doing a hell of a lot of work. They've been doing an amazing job over there.

151.066 - 173.777 Ben Shapiro

The engineers that Elon Musk has working for him typically are young and incredibly smart, which is why they work for Elon Musk. So the six young men who are sort of leading the charge are apparently all between the ages of 19 and 24. And this has been determined to be a very, very bad thing, again, by so many of the people on the left. Just terrible.
