Will Witt Debates a "Progressive" Muslim | Interviews

okay so I let's say these people in these middle-eastern countries it's not tied to Islam and it's just culture would you want these people to come to America what I want the people in the Middle East to come to America well why are we focused on the Middle East Islam is everywhere so what you want we because we were talking about the culture there so these people who have this culture that's not based on Islam but the suppressive culture that we've talked about that needs reform you think these people should come to America I don't think there should be violent people anywhere if you ask me how we dictate gets to come what's your take on that how do we decide whose cultural practices are wrong I believe that some cultures are better than others I think that Western culture is the best culture in the world like nationalistic yes I'm an American nationalist I'm American and I trust that our country's done many great things but I can also recognize it's done a lot of bad things and I wouldn't say our culture is better than another culture what culture is better than our culture I don't think I don't think it's a competition as to whose culture is the best I think there's good things in all cultures and bad things in all cultures you can take some things you can take some good and you can take some bad from some cultures of course but it seems like Western culture as a whole has made people most free the most equal over any other you know I mean there's still 30 million slaves across the world now none of them are in the West it's the segregation across the world because we don't because we are the ones who got rid of it first well we had an entire north of this country fight to end slavery no of course not but you know you look now and there's nowhere else in America or nowhere else in the world that you are more free than in the West look you can disagree with me right now you can't do that in a bun in so many other countries there is no country that has a constitution that out like America does I simply I just wanna argue that Western the mass culture I don't think it's a competition the fact that you can say that it's not the best culture is because you live in the West there is okay yes we have freedom of speech we have freedom of expression are those the only things that constitute the best culture well freedom to bear arms the rest of the Constitution you have equal rights to do what you want work where you want dress by the way you like in America you have all of these rights you know women can go to university and do all these great things yes women get paid up more up to the age of 35 okay one more time and especially take women of color into consideration that's simply not true one color makes 50 cents to the white man's dollar after the age of 35 you have to account for all the lifestyle choices that women are making and why are we making those lifestyle choices because women like those things they want to start a family and you're gently stereotyping as to what women are expected to do I think women would choose to do that if they were left like look at Scandinavia right where you have they have gender equality as the number one thing in their society right in the Scandinavian countries you still have 20 to 1 nurses with his 20 female nurses to everyone male nurse and 20 male engineers to everyone female women are more naturally caretakers things like that they're more nurturing than men for sure okay okay thank you there's a lot of fun that's fantastic you
