Glenn Beck to young Americans: AI may have knowledge, but it will never have your purpose



In a culture constantly telling young people that the future is bleak and their problems are unprecedented, Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck is offering a different message: Don't buy the despair.

“I think for a lot of you, there is this quiet voice that has been whispering to you for a while now. And it says the world’s broken and somebody’s handing it to me, and I don’t know what to do,” he says.

“Let me start with the hard truth here. Life is hard. It is. It’s just not as hard as people profiting from your panic need you to believe. Okay? It’s not. The hardness is real. The hopelessness is a product. Don’t buy in to that. There’s an entire industry whose only job is to convince you that just being alive right now is the heaviest thing a human has ever carried,” he continues.

“The weight is real, but the despair is a sales pitch,” he adds.


And one major source of stress for young people is AI. Glenn points out that while it may be able to pass the same exams, it will never be human.

“The machine that we have right now, in your pocket, that can read every book ever written, but it has never once been afraid of the dark. It can know everything and understand nothing. It will know more about you by Tuesday. Yet it will never really know what it’s like to be you,” he says.

“And that’s not your weakness. That’s the entire point of you. It has all of the answers, but not a single reason to get out of bed. You have all of the reasons. You may not have the answers, but you have the reasons. Don’t trade those away,” he continues.

Glenn goes on to explain that you should not mistake all the knowledge AI has for wisdom.

“Don’t confuse the two, and don’t worship either one of them,” he says, before pointing out that human beings were created by God — and AI was not.

“A universe of cold math does not produce a soul that weeps at music by accident. You were made. And you were made on purpose. You, not just man — you,” he continues. “And somewhere underneath all that noise, purpose is still waiting for you to get quiet enough to hear it. I’m telling you: You will find it.”

Glenn Beck reveals the MOST dangerous trend in modern politics



Americans are increasingly being taught to see themselves not as individuals, but as members of demographic groups whose race, sex, or ancestry defines their experiences, beliefs, and even moral standing — and Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck has the stories to prove it.

In one example, Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico explained that he has a limited ability to understand the world because of his background and identity as being “white and a male.”

“Now, he offered this as some sort of humility … but notice the mechanism of the claim. The limit isn’t experience or his reading or his choices. The limit is his category. The category of his race and his sex set that is putting the limit and the ceiling on what his mind can reach,” Glenn comments.

“Think about how racist that is. If I said, you know, Talarico, let’s say he was African-American and I said, you know, ‘Well, his imagination is limited because he’s black.’ I mean, that’s clearly racist, right?” he asks.


Another story Glenn cites is Joy Reid discussing the fourth of July.

“She’s not excited about it. What a surprise. She said, ‘Black Americans are not excited about the 4th of July.’ That to black America, Independence Day is Juneteenth,” Glenn explains.

“Most Americans had no idea, most black Americans had no idea what Juneteenth was until recently. But I don’t want to argue this. I want you to look at the shape of the sentence here. She didn’t say, ‘I feel this way.’ She said, ‘Black people are not excited,’” he says.

“So there’s one holiday for one category and another holiday for another category. The nation’s birthday has to be sorted by skin. Hold on to that,” he adds.

And now a church in Virginia, which was a historically mostly white congregation generations ago, hosted a black walking tour — which was a slave trail through Richmond.

The point of the tour was to confront and atone for that history.

“Watch what’s being atoned for and by whom. Not the men who did it, because they’re two centuries dead. The living are doing the penance for an inheritance of guilt — guilt assigned by not anything they did, but by the group they were born into,” Glenn says.

“You cannot create categories over individuals. When the man becomes his race or his disability or whatever over who he is as an individual, there’s trouble on the horizon. The citizen who becomes his demographic before he becomes an American. The believer then inherits guilt by bloodline rather than by his own deeds,” he continues.

“In every single case, the individual has disappeared and the group steps forward to stand in its place,” he adds.

Tucker Carlson declares ‘I’m out’ of the GOP — Glenn Beck issues urgent warning



On a recent episode of the "Can't Be Censored" podcast hosted by former Canadian journalists Travis Dhanraj and Karman Wong, longtime conservative commentator Tucker Carlson dropped a major announcement: He’s withdrawing his support for the GOP.

“There’s no chance I would support the Republican Party. Not going to support the Democratic Party. I don’t know what I’m going to do,” he stated bluntly, citing his frustration with what he believes is the party putting a foreign country’s interests above America’s.

“I’m out, and if I’m out, then I think a lot of other people are out,” he added.

When he heard Carlson’s announcement, Glenn Beck issued a warning to both Washington Republicans and conservative voters.

Addressing Republican politicians, Glenn scolds, “I told you this would happen. For years, I have said this. I said the day would come when your own people would stop defending you, when their loyalty would run out, when ‘the other side is worse’ doesn't work anymore.”

Widespread disaffection “is here,” he warns.

MAGA, Glenn argues, isn’t just about Trump. It’s about commonsense policies and national strength.

“[Trump] was just the first major candidate that said, ‘You know, we're not done as a nation, and I'm not going to manage the decline.’ That's what people want,” he exclaims. “A healthy and commonsense-driven country that doesn't destroy their faith and their family and their freedoms.”

Glenn then turns his focus to conservative voters.

“When somebody like Tucker walks, when the next one walks (and there will be a next one), people are going to come and say, ‘Circle the wagons. You've got to defend the party.’ No ... don't rush to defend the GOP,” he entreats.

“Every time you defend them for free, they teach you that betrayal is survivable, that they can ignore you and keep you,” he continues. “The only language a comfortable incumbent understands is the sound of the door closing behind a voter who's done.”

This doesn’t mean we stop fighting the “authoritarian and crazy left.” We just have to “find the Republicans or whatever that stand for something,” he pleads.

Glenn pivots to Washington again: “You're not going to survive this. And I don't mean a tough cycle coming your way. I mean, you are building with your own hands a movement aimed directly at you, and you deserve it.”

No amount of spending or messaging will slow or divert the train that’s coming, he warns.

There is only one good way to stop the GOP exodus, says Glenn: “Simply remove the reason it exists.”

“And the only way to do that is to start listening to the people who sent you there and then actually do the thing they sent you to do. That's it. That's the secret in the sauce.”
