Satirist and free speech activist Konstantin Kisin obliterated woke culture in an Oxford Union debate video that has since gone viral.
To combat climate change, Kisin noted that poor people all over the world would have to forgo technological and industrial development in order to “stay poor” enough – a prospect he characterized as unacceptable, unrealistic, and cruel.
“About 15 months ago my wife got pregnant, and for nine months, we talked about what our boy would look like, what he might do when he grows up,” he continued. “We looked at baby scans and videos on YouTube about what the fetus looks like at nine months and 12 months and 20 months. Eventually, he was born and he has this cute little bundle of joy.
Now, if you said to me that I had a choice: either my son had a serious risk of starving or dying from a preventable disease in the next year or I could press a button and he would live, he would go to school, he would bring his first girlfriend home, he would go to university and graduate and become a woke idiot and get a job and get married and have children and become a man.
You’re all very young and most of you are not parents, let me tell you something, there is not a parent in the world who would not smash that button so hard their hand bled. You are not going to get these people to stay poor. You are not even going to get them to not want to not be richer.
Kisin concluded his speech with a call for woke activists to end their worship of protest culture and outrage sessions to instead roll up their sleeves and get to work doing something in the world.
