Megyn Kelly and Stu Burguiere: Smartphones, no God, zero soul — the left’s humanity collapse
Death chants, celebrations of murder, aggressive protests, and violent demonstrations are mostly happening on one side of the political aisle. The Democrat Party is supposed to be all about tolerance, love, and inclusivity, so why are lefties so hostile? Why do they cheer when political opponents are murdered in cold blood? Why do they scream for the death of their own country while championing the causes of terrorists overseas? Why do they physically attack people for wearing MAGA hats or selling Charlie Kirk merchandise on the street?
In other words: Where did their humanity go?
This was a topic Stu Burguiere, BlazeTV host of “Stu Does America,” dove into with conservative firebrand Megyn Kelly on a recent joint episode.
The increase in left-wing violence, while certainly a multifaceted issue, is caused in part by the digital age, Stu speculates. “Young people in the last 20 years — their time socializing with other human beings is down between 50% and 70%” thanks to things like the iPhone and social media, he says.
Given that today “pet owners spend more time actively engaged with their cats than they do other human beings,” is it any wonder their sense of humanity has dwindled? “There’s a disconnect that’s brewing between younger people and just the people around them,” says Stu. “They don’t see them as humans. They don’t have any respect for them at all.”
Never was this clearer than when countless left-wingers across the country celebrated the murder of Charlie Kirk. Stu laments the fact that feeling sadness for the brutal death of a man whose only crime was to share his opinions in the public square is still too high a bar for the left to clear.
Even feeling sadness for Charlie’s family — his widow, Erika, and their two young children — is too high a bar for some on the left. “There’s a baby boy who’s still sleeping in a crib, there’s a toddler girl who have no understanding that they will never know their father. And there’s a mother who’s trying to raise them,” says Megyn.
And yet numerous left-wing attacks have been aimed directly at Erika and her children. They’ve been mocked; their grief has been publicly celebrated; gruesome re-enactments of Charlie’s murder have circulated online.
Megyn says that while there’s plenty of people she loathes, especially in left-wing media, she would “never wish for them to get hurt.” “God forbid they ever got attacked, I would never celebrate it. I would shed tears for them,” she says.
But young progressives today seem incapable of feeling any emotion for people they disagree with. Are the screens they live behind numbing their humanity?
While the digital age has undoubtedly stunted social and emotional development, conservatives are just as embedded in this technological landscape, but their civility has largely remained more intact than that of their liberal counterparts.
Stu theorizes that the digital age has had more of a negative impact on the left because progressives often prescribe to collectivism — the belief that the group (society, community, race, class, etc.) is more important than the individual, and that people should be judged, valued, or treated primarily based on their membership in that group rather than their personal actions, character, or choices.
Collectivism is the foundation on which DEI, affirmative action, and race/gender quotas are built. It’s a mentality that inevitably leads to bigotry as human beings are reduced to group identity. This ideology, says Stu, exacerbates the negative effects of social isolation caused by our technologies.
However, the loss of faith is another important factor. “In general, right-wing families are connected with faith,” says Megyn.
Progressives, in contrast, are far more likely to be secular, with those who identify as very liberal being the most likely to reject faith altogether. That means they don’t prescribe to a set of moral ideals set by a higher power and therefore can more easily justify things like violence, hatred, and revenge.
But that doesn’t mean lefties aren’t religious at their core. “Wokeism,” which Megyn calls a “false god,” has become the religion of the left. All the fervency, enthusiasm, and commitment that propels people of faith is still there; it’s just channeled in directions that are “extremely damaging.”

‘He’s not that smart’: Homan lampoons Chicago mayor for pleading with UN to intervene against ICE
Brandon Johnson, Chicago’s Democratic mayor whose disapproval rating is over 60%, joined Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner and other American leftists in complaining to foreign bureaucrats on Friday about the Trump administration’s faithful enforcement of federal immigration law.
After detailing some of the ways that his “sanctuary city” has worked to undermine federal law enforcement initiatives, Johnson stressed to members of the United Nations Human Rights Council, “We cannot do this alone.”
The ‘United Nations is not going to tell President Trump what to do.’
“That is why I call on this council to hold the federal government of the United States to the same standards of accountability you apply elsewhere in the world,” said Johnson, whose city has seen at least 368 homicides already this year. “No country should be above international law. Human rights are universal or they are meaningless.”
When asked about Johnson’s request that foreigners meddle in American politics, White House border czar Tom Homan told “The Big Weekend Show” that it “just proves he’s not that smart.”

“Asking the United Nations to, you know, interfere with ICE enforcing U.S. law is like asking an arsonist how to stop a fire,” said Homan. “The [International Organization for Migration], part of the U.N., helped fund the mass migration during the Biden administration’s four years, spending millions upon millions of dollars helping that … international migration coming to the United States.”
Homan underscored that the “United Nations is not going to tell President Trump what to do. President Trump was put into office on the promise of making this country safe again, on the promise of having the historic deportation operation — that’s exactly what America’s getting.”
‘We live with the consequences of that moral failure every day.’
The border czar noted that in addition to making Americans safer by giving the boot to criminal noncitizens and securing the border, the Trump administration’s clear messaging to would-be invaders that they’re not welcome has also saved the lives of thousands of migrants who might have joined the multitudes who previously died trying to reach America.
In their campaign to protect the people of Chicago from the illegal aliens Johnson is apparently keen to harbor, ICE has caught numerous dangerous criminal noncitizens.
For instance, two days before Johnson’s appeal to the U.N., ICE officers captured Alan Eduardo Garcia, an illegal alien from Mexico whose rap sheet includes arrests and convictions for felony strangulation, domestic battery, disorderly conduct, battery causing bodily injury, aggravated battery against a handicapped or pregnant woman, and unlawful use of a firearm, the agency claimed.
Among the other apparently dangerous foreigners ICE has captured in recent weeks was an illegal alien from Somalia who has convictions for multiple domestic assaults, rape, and multiple DUIs; a convicted murderer from Mexico; and multiple members of the terrorist gang Tren de Aragua.
Johnson suggested that the Trump administration’s refusal to let the U.N. police its actions amounts to a “moral failure,” adding that “we live with the consequences of that moral failure every day.”
