I want people to stop saying, "Why don't
00:00:01
victims come forward?" Because
00:00:04
look at Epstein. We haven't had a single
00:00:07
arrest in the United States.
00:00:10
I don't think we should ever ask that
00:00:12
question again, and instead we can say,
00:00:14
"How can we create conditions where
00:00:16
victims can speak up and be believed?"
00:00:18
Now, if you were homeschooled like me,
00:00:20
my parents
00:00:22
oh my god, if I even said like, "Hey, I
00:00:26
didn't love being homeschooled. Like,
00:00:28
some of those textbooks were really not
00:00:31
great. Like, they would respond
00:00:34
horribly." Right? Because their entire
00:00:36
worldview and ideology is connected to
00:00:38
that.
