Candace Owens is raising eyebrows after a Daily Wire episode aired in which she denounces the role of women in society.
On Thursday, the controversial right-wing political commentator stated that Americans are in matriarchy and it is why she has been accused of being a misogynist.
The conversation began when the show’s guest, Andrew Tate, suggested that she imagine a society where people could control purely with emotional arguments. “We’re almost there,” he said.
She then responded: “This is why they accuse me of being an internalized misogynist because I’m able to think through and acknowledge the flaws of what happens in society when women get power. And if you want know what happens, look around you. Women fall for emotional arguments the entire time. They show us a commercial, you know, show — it’s so sad, and before they get to the rational aspects of it, they’re already invested emotionally. And I think that virtually every societal ill that we are facing today is because of women.”
She gave the recent example of the Bud Light controversy, in which trans people were dressed up as women.
It “invaded every women’s space, and women said, oh, but I feel bad. Because it’s how he identifies at the inside, without thinking through the fact that you’re quite literally disappearing yourselves. Right? You’re quite literally saying, I will cease existing before I let this grown man who’s wearing a wig have a bad feeling. That’s insane.”
In May, Owens made headlines for disparaging comments she made about transgenderism, which she thinks is “an ill, it’s a cancer and we should fight it.”
“We’re seeing this all around the world in society right now, by the way. Sociology is currently competing with biology,” the 34-year-old said. “It begs the question, will ideology and sociology trump biology in the future? And I think the answer to that is absolutely not. I rest in comfort knowing that in the end biology wins. That’s just one example. Eunuchs cannot reproduce. So we have a bunch of people that are super worried about transgenderism. Yes, it’s an ill, it’s a cancer and we should fight it. But it is not an ideology that can survive itself because, well, it can’t reproduce.”
