Democratic members of the committee, including Steve Cohen, defended Peter Strzok, with one member suggesting he deserved a "Purple Heart" for enduring the hearing. The hosts criticize this comparison as insulting to wounded veterans and an example of "social justice" terminology being applied to political testimony.

### Social Justice Enablers, Cultural Appropriation Claims

- **Episode:** [952: iChip®](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/952-ichip.md)
- **Published:** 2017-08-03
- **Time:** 7:46–10:13
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/952-ichip/chapter/social-justice-enablers-cultural-appropriation-claims.md

Millennial social dynamics are analyzed through the lens of "enabling" injustice by remaining silent. The lack of organized protests against the transgender military ban is attributed to a lack of professional funding from organizations linked to George Soros. Additionally, the concept of cultural appropriation is challenged using the example of Native American headdresses, which are compared to the Purple Heart in terms of cultural significance and earned honor.
