	Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
	I believe I'm live.
	Let me check things on the back end, make sure everything's fine.
	And then we shall start.
	Yeah, seems to be working.
	I hope.
	Just check the audio.
	Yeah, I think you can hear me.
	How are you all doing?
	Hope you're all having a wonderful evening.
	It's late here, but when I get the time to do it, I suppose.
	So I thought today what we'd have a talk about are the concepts of diversity and the concept of replacement.
	Because these are inextricably linked in a way that simply can't be extracted, which is why the left is acting as the left is acting.
	Quiet, is it?
	Well, unfortunately, it's as loud as it can get.
	I'm not going to bloody yell.
	Don't give me that no-sound bullshit.
	Dicks.
	Yes, so that's what we're going to talk about.
	It's two concepts that you just can't separate.
	They're necessarily connected.
	And I'll explain how in a minute.
	But we'll just wait for people to be like, oh, oh my God.
	Oh, my God.
	There's a live stream going on.
	And in the meantime, what I'll do is show you my let's work.
	Because why not?
	If you're not following me on Instagram, then you don't get to see all this awesome stuff.
	Pete has a master of possession.
	And I was like, mate, do you want me to paint it?
	Because he hardly paints.
	And so I did this, which I thought was quite nice.
	I was quite happy with it in the end.
	I was particularly happy with the purple feathers on the back.
	Because they're quite subtle because they're in this wolf skin thing.
	But I was quite happy with how they turned out, to be honest.
	And the general aesthetic of the model I thought looked pretty good.
	The blue flames I thought were an interesting touch.
	So I was quite happy with that.
	And the other thing I did was my venerable dreadnought.
	It's been ages since I've done a stream, obviously, because I've got loads of stuff painted.
	Well, I got two things painted.
	It's not loads of stuff, really, but I'm really happy with the Venerable Dreadnoughts.
	A, I love dreadnoughts.
	They're my favourite units in 40k.
	The space marine dreadnoughts in particular, although the chaos hellbrutes, whatever they're called now, look good too.
	I was quite happy with this dude.
	Quite happy with the plasma cannon.
	Happy with the overall aesthetic again.
	Like the general effect that I think he creates, I'm quite pleased with.
	Looking forward to using them on the battlefield because he's also a good little model.
	Worked really hard on these and on the plasma cannon and on the light there.
	See, like all of the minor criticisms people are giving me.
	Well, okay, I've been listening.
	All right.
	I've been listening.
	Right, so, oh, yeah, one other thing.
	Right, so I've left a link to this article that I've written down in the comments.
	This is an article I wrote because I just went through the census data in fine detail since 1961 when the census began in Britain.
	And I just compiled the data into an article.
	And people have been asking me, why can't I send you a super chat to have a question or something?
	And that's because, of course, YouTube has demonetized this channel.
	So if you wanted to send me a super chat, what we can do, only people who have signed up to LotusEaters.com can comment on the articles.
	So if you want, what you could do is click on the article, sign up on Lotus Eaters, leave a comment on the article, and I'll read out the new questions that are comments or whatever it is that have been added onto this article at the end if you would like to.
	It's not mandatory, of course, but it's how we pay for everything and how we support what we're doing.
	And it allows us to have difficult conversations like this one.
	Hmm.
	It's a good start from Tim Wise, isn't it?
	Those who push replacement theory are to blame for racist terrorism.
	I mean, that's a big claim.
	That's a very, very big claim.
	And we're going to get into who's pushing replacement theory in a minute.
	But I just want to, let me, he goes on about Tucker Carlson, who is the one person in the media, in the mainstream, who has the balls to say, well, look, the Democrats are actually trying to gain a new constituency of voters who will vote against what they perceive to be the white majority in the United States, and they're not shy about saying it.
	And we'll talk about how they're not shy about saying it.
	But let's just, let's just, it's not 410.
	This is mainstream.
	Okay, well, there's a reason for that.
	And it's because when you say diversity, that necessarily means some kind of replacement.
	Well, I'll explain in a bit.
	But what's the end with?
	Oh, this is precisely what Hitler said about Jews.
	Oh, there we go.
	There we go.
	Thanks, Tim Wise.
	We literally can't have a single conversation.
	Oh, that's Hitler.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, now that everyone's a Nazi, Tim, can we have the conversation about these two directly linked concepts?
	One that you're pushing and the other that you're denying, or telling people that they're evil for observing.
	Are we allowed to do that?
	Okay, everyone's a Nazi.
	Yeah, got you, Tim.
	Got you.
	But this is an aspect of reality I would like to talk about.
	And I would like, I think other people would like to be able to talk about.
	It's kill or be killed.
	Why?
	It's only kill or be killed if it's something you can't talk about.
	Like at this point, discussing or debating issues is irrelevant.
	Well, I guess.
	I guess you're a radical, then, aren't you?
	You're a radical who literally wants to kill people.
	I still believe in the democratic process.
	I know I'm a fucking dinosaur.
	Like, I still think the way we can talk about things and implement policy that would suit everyone.
	Instead, Tim Wise is like, look, we've got to finish them, lads.
	It's like, Jesus, Tim.
	And you're going to call me Hitler, are you?
	You're the one who's like, yeah, we've got to kill or be killed.
	Our opponents are Hitler.
	Just, dude.
	Yeah, I honestly think there is room for a nuanced conversation here, right?
	Where we don't have to say minority is bad.
	And we also can admit that there is something, a consequence to the concept of diversity.
	I think we can do that.
	We're going to try and do that.
	Let's press on.
	And the thing about this, the thing about this framing, this unbelievable framing, if you even consider mentioning that the Democrats are trying to get new demographics in so they'll vote for the Democrats because their policies are so shit that no one in their right mind who cared about their own country would vote for them.
	Well, then you're a Nazi.
	And that, I guess, makes this guy a Nazi, William Spivy.
	And the only reason I know about this guy is it literally was the first recommended explaining the great white replacement or great replacement theory.
	So Jesus Christ, fucking medium's hosting a Nazi who's directly responsible for racist terrorism.
	Just blows my mind.
	I would have thought that guy would have been deplatformed.
	But apparently, white women aren't having enough babies.
	It's like, well, yeah.
	I mean, who doesn't know that?
	Look at the birth rates in every modern first world country.
	Like, literally, any first world country.
	It can be Australia, it could be South Africa, it could be New Zealand, it could be Canada, it could be Finland, it can be Norway, it could be Britain, it could be Ireland, it could be anywhere.
	Yes, that is that is true.
	As a statement, white women, as in European women or women of European descent, are not having enough babies.
	That's totally true.
	And also, America is getting at least a million legal immigrants a year, and God knows how many illegals come across the southern border.
	We are taking in 700,000 legal immigrants a year and about 30,000 who are just illegally crossing the channel because fuck us.
	There is like a distinct imbalance there.
	But moreover, this implies that our countries are nothing more than containments, right?
	They are nothing more than something to be filled up with people, as many people as we can.
	If you want to stay in the majority, well, I mean, you just have to reproduce yourselves really quickly.
	It's like, okay, well, you know, birth control is one of those things that we can't actually do now.
	Women aren't forced to have children.
	And I'm not saying they should be forced to have children, but then maybe there's a way of looking at this that's like, okay, maybe women don't have to be forced to have children.
	And maybe we don't just allow the entire world to pour into our countries.
	Like, there's a reason for this, especially in Britain.
	England is like one of the most densely populated countries in the world.
	Like, we're not very big.
	We're actually kind of small.
	Like, maybe if we recolonize Ireland again, I don't know.
	You know, I don't know what our options are.
	But anyway, moving on.
	So who's talking about great replacement then?
	Well, lots and lots of leftists.
	Lots and lots of leftists.
	And I know, and you know, why they're talking about this.
	They're talking about this because the more you diversify something, the more you must be replacing something.
	Let's have a watch, shall we?
	It seems harder and harder to ignore that the echoes of replacement theory and other racially motivated views are increasingly coming out into the open.
	In a few years, we're going to be a majority brown country.
	White people will not be the majority in the country anymore.
	This will be the first generation ever in American history in which whites will be a minority of the generation at some point.
	As of 2007, every year babies being born in this country, whites now are the minority.
	In 2044, everyone is going to be a minority.
	As the demographics change, as white people become the minority in the country, which is coming.
	Demographics is destiny.
	Demographics is destiny.
	Demographics is destiny, right?
	The country is changing.
	I've been saying it here.
	Other people have been saying it here for years now, even before Donald Trump.
	The demographics is destiny.
	The white population is declining for the first time in history in America, while the number of multiracial Americans have more than doubled.
	So we live in a country where the demographics are changing.
	It's becoming less white.
	Correct.
	Okay.
	You'll be announcing that we're calling the 38 electoral votes of Texas for the Democratic nominee for president.
	It's changing.
	It's going to become a purple state and then a blue state because of the demographics, because of the population growth.
	The growth in Texas has been almost entirely driven by non-white population growth, mostly by Hispanic and Latino population growth.
	The idea that whites will not be the majority, I mean, that's an exciting transformation of the country.
	It's an exciting evolution and progress of our country in many different ways.
	The white population is declining.
	It was always on the upswing.
	So that speaks to the beautiful diversity of America.
	It speaks to how that population will, the demographics will weigh in politically.
	I believe anybody who actors a replacement is to blame, not for this particular crime, but it's for no purpose.
	No purpose except profit and/or political benefit.
	And it's wrong.
	It's just simply wrong.
	Okay.
	So, I mean, it's pretty in your face, right?
	Like, these people are, I mean, saying demographics is destiny.
	Now, that's a white nationalist catchphrase.
	That's what they, that's where I first heard that.
	I didn't realize that the Democrats also say the same thing.
	Like, word for word, like, exactly that phrase.
	And with a weird kind of relish as well, right?
	They seem to be quite happy that that's the case.
	They seem excited and you can tell why as they told us literally repeatedly over and over and over and over This is going to give us electoral power.
	This is how we are going to conquer Texas.
	We are going to take Texas from the Republicans by literally replacing the voting bloc with someone else who will vote for us because apparently the native population of Texas are not stupid enough to vote for Democrats.
	And they think that the brown-skinned people who will come from South America, Mexico, are stupid enough to vote for Democrats.
	I mean, that's changing, obviously.
	I should have got the polls up, but it's not looking good for them, actually, with their replacement demographics are actually like, hang on a second, why the fuck would I vote for these lunatics who are actually ruining this country that I've just moved to?
	Why would I vote for them?
	But anyway, that's a different point.
	The point being, they think that demographics are destiny and that this will give them political power.
	Anyone want to talk to Tim Wise about the party he supports?
	I mean, he is in favor of civil war.
	It's kill or be killed, apparently.
	So terrifying opinions from Tim Wise, frankly.
	This guy's like well, he's famous.
	You know, he's well known.
	Mad.
	But the thing is, it's not that they're even subtle about this.
	This is by Michelle Goldberg, an opinion columnist in the New York Times in 2018 after Charlottesville, I believe.
	But I mean, just could you be any more on the nose?
	Like, we can replace them in Georgia, a chance to rebuke white nationalism.
	Do you want to know how she ends this?
	This is just fucking staggering.
	And again, to say, like, oh, how dare you say this is a racist conspiracy theory that we publish in the New York Times and that all of our talking heads talk about on the news.
	Like, okay, you're all a bunch of people who promote a racist conspiracy theory then, right?
	If that's the standard, then you are it and you are the people who are promoting this great replacement theory.
	But that is, again, a consequence of diversity, isn't it?
	But look at the way she ends this.
	So on Saturday morning, Abrams, she's talking about Stacey Abrams' run for Georgia governor, closed by reminding the crowd of Kemp's reviews on democracy.
	He said he is concerned that if everyone eligible to vote in Georgia does so, he will lose his election.
	Let's prove him right.
	In a week, American voters can do to white nationalists what they fear most, show them they're being replaced.
	Boom.
	On the nose.
	Like literally, like you are literally saying that you're doing it.
	Like this is a racist conspiracy theory.
	Why would you be so open about it?
	Why?
	Why would you think you can have it both ways?
	Diversity, diversity, diversity, diversity.
	You can't say anything about replacement.
	That's racist.
	That's a conspiracy theory.
	You're Hitler.
	It's like, sorry, A, you say this plenty.
	And B, you expect people to not notice the things that are happening around them.
	You know that people live in the world that you're altering.
	You know, people can see the effects of these things around.
	Like, they sit there and go, oh, great replacement conspiracy theory isn't fringe anymore.
	It's mainstream.
	It's like, yeah, it's in the fucking New York Times, bro.
	It's all over the fucking news.
	These people are saying it to everyone's faces.
	I guess they must watch TV.
	Like, of course, it's going to be mainstream if all of you people are constantly saying it with this kind of glee.
	But then you think, ah, but we can tell them if they think that it's real, that we've been telling them this is real.
	Demographics is destiny, according to the news presenters.
	Like, if we tell them that if they believe what we're saying, then we're going to call them Hitler.
	And it's like, okay, that's weird.
	You know, that's really embarrassing, frankly, that you think that's the case.
	You think you've got such control over narratives that you can make them listen to you, believe what you're saying, but have some sort of double thing in their head.
	So one thing and the other thing, even though these would be completely logically connected, you think you can break that by calling them racist and make them not think about the changes that are happening in their country.
	But that's the thing, isn't it?
	People can see the changes in their country.
	As like, just show you, right?
	As a percentage.
	I just made this graph because I just went through all the census data and it's mad, right?
	So back in 1961, right?
	Less than 3% of England and Wales, sorry, about 3% of England and Wales, 3.1%, was of foreign extraction.
	And that includes Irish, right?
	That includes Irish people, non-native British, including Irish, less than 3%, right?
	Go back to like 1991 and it's still 11%, 12%, right?
	2011, it was 80% native, so 20%.
	And the thing is, it's been 10 years and we're waiting for the new census to come out.
	But combined with illegal immigrants and the immigration of the last 10 years since the 2011 census was done, it's going to be roughly that one in four people in England and Wales are foreign now.
	Like one in four.
	And you can see it.
	When you go down the high streets, you can see it.
	Okay?
	Like, and it's, it's very recent, like, especially in Swindon.
	Like, go back two or three years.
	It just was not like it is now.
	And I'm just walking around.
	And it's so weird to see the kinds of foreigners that are there as well.
	Like, I walked past three separate groups of North African people speaking French the other day.
	And I was just like, okay, look, I can understand why people from the colonies would come to Britain, right?
	They've got a cultural history from the British Empire.
	They understand the culture that they're coming to to a certain degree, although we'll talk about that in a minute.
	They speak English.
	You know, there is a reason for them to be here.
	Why would there be three separate groups of people from North Africa?
	And why would they be in fucking Swindon?
	Like, why wouldn't they go to the French equivalent of Swindon, like Paris or whatever, you know, the French equivalent is?
	Why would they be in Swindon of all places?
	Like, what are they doing?
	And then you've got like these guys who look like they're from, I don't know, fucking Senegal or something, you know.
	And they're just sat around in like the latest clothes and they're just lounging on these benches and they're just looking around.
	Just what we're doing.
	It's like, yeah, what are you doing?
	Like, why would you come here of all places?
	Like, just curious, you know, I might start asking them.
	So why did you guys come here then?
	Because I'm just genuinely curious.
	But anyway, it's talking about replacement and diversity.
	So Birmingham is the second city of England, and that has been diversified quite significantly.
	It's a very successful effort in diversity.
	And as you can see, fewer than two out of five primary school pupils in Birmingham are English.
	They say white, but they mean English.
	Now, this is good information.
	This is from 2017, because, of course, we're still waiting for the census.
	And interestingly, in the previous census, in 2011, 57% of people in Birmingham were English.
	So you can see how the diversification of Birmingham has come about.
	The reason I think that the primary school pupils is a useful metric is, of course, because people give birth to children who look like them and who are part of their same ethnic group.
	Now, why does this matter?
	Why is the word replacement connected to the word diversity?
	Well, because Birmingham is of a set size.
	Now, it of course grows or shrinks depending on certain metrics.
	And of course, they build houses around the edges, so it continually spreads out.
	My father actually lived in Wooten-Bassett before he married my mother when they first started dating.
	And he was saying to me a while ago how Swindon has grown to such an extent that the outskirts of Swindon are basically touching Wooten-Bassett now, whereas it used to be like a couple of miles apart.
	And so it's not that these things aren't growing, of course, but they are still of a certain size.
	There is only so much space in Birmingham.
	And so if it's not that there are now the same number of English people who were there 20 years ago, whatever, and there is just an extra attached number of people.
	No, the population of Birmingham has been roughly a million for a good few decades now.
	It is that those people have literally been replaced.
	They are not there now.
	And the word replacement is not some sort of dirty word.
	I mean, you replace things all the time, right?
	And to have one thing, because you have a limited space of something, you have to take something away and replace it with something else.
	That is just an inevitable, necessary part of the concept of diversifying things.
	And you can see how much that has happened to Birmingham.
	But you get this everywhere, right?
	Take, for example, this particular effort of the Democrats, of course, to make it so that in each company, there would be an equal number of female directors on the board, right?
	Or like there would be female directors on the board.
	A company's board is definitely of a fixed size.
	Like you can't have just, you know, 5,000.
	I mean, maybe you could, but most companies, I'm thinking like, you know, just even if it's just a small business or something, you've only got a fixed number of places.
	You've only got a certain number, right?
	It's not an infinite amount of space.
	So if you would say, right, okay, we want 50% women on this board, you would have to replace 50% of the men.
	If you wanted to have that there, you would have to do it.
	It would just be a necessary thing to do.
	You get this everywhere.
	Like Bristol education.
	Oh, oh, Bristol councillors.
	Yeah, we need to diversify the curriculum.
	Okay, well, what does that mean?
	Well, that means by bringing in writing authors that are not English.
	Okay, well, I'm not against that in principle, but you are going to have to replace something that's already on the curriculum because a curriculum is definitely a set amount of things.
	You can't just have this infinite curriculum that you impose on the students.
	You've got, obviously, I don't know however many 10, 15, whatever it is, authors they're going to go through in their entire school lives.
	Then, well, there you go.
	You know, you've got a fixed number.
	You have got to, if you want to diversify this, you can't just insert extra things in as a giant burden on the students.
	You have to remove things and replace them with something.
	Like, this is just the inevitable natural consequence of diversity.
	It is a logical corollary.
	You can't get away from it.
	It has to be that to diversify, you must replace because you can't simply expand indefinitely.
	I mean, it's much more likely for a giant company, I suppose, but it's definitely not something that this can happen in the school curriculum.
	And again, like if you were going to diversify something, you have to replace Jen Saki got replaced the other day.
	There's nothing wrong with saying that.
	There's nothing wrong with saying this woman replaced Jen Saki, and she's way more diverse than Jen Saki.
	She's a black female immigrant lesbian.
	Brilliant, brilliant.
	Bravo for being a black female lesbian immigrant.
	It's such an achievement, you see.
	But she has replaced Jen Saki.
	So diversity has replaced the existing person that was there.
	There's only one White House press secretary.
	So it's necessarily that Jen Saki has been replaced.
	Let's just carry on.
	I'm just this random Twitter account I found.
	I've spent the last years advocating for diversity, diversifying clinical psychology programs.
	Right, okay.
	So have we got the potential for infinite clinical psychology programs?
	No, of course not.
	We have a fixed budget.
	We have a fixed number of places in the institutions that this can happen in.
	Okay, well, then you're going to have to take away some of those existing things and replace them with something else.
	That's just the way these things work.
	You see this in the NHS.
	The NHS has got like 1.3 million employees, something like that.
	Now, this might be roughly equivalent to the Chinese army.
	I think it's about half the Chinese army, actually.
	But even then, even the NHS has limitations.
	And so you get like, you know, senior doctors were more likely to be white.
	56%.
	It's not representative of the country.
	I mean, representation is a different argument.
	But if you're concerned about representation, you'd be like, well, why is only half of our senior doctors native British and 30% are Asian?
	Whereas it's like, you know, 6 or 7% of the country is Asian.
	That's weird, isn't it?
	But again, to have that be the case, there is a certain fixed number of doctors that are available.
	Then half of them have had to be replaced with other doctors.
	That's fine.
	I'm sure these guys are great.
	I'm sure they're brilliant.
	But you can't get around the fact that having something that is incredibly diverse means that something has to be replaced in the process.
	I mean, it's not always great, is it?
	Like, it's not always good.
	Like, this is one of the replacement doctors in replacement for a British doctor, a native British doctor, who wasn't the best of guys.
	This was a problem with cultural norms.
	His sex attack on a woman, instantly, was a different cultural norms.
	Incidentally, that washed with British courts and they were like, yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, it's different cultural norms.
	Yeah, yeah, fine.
	You can go back to being a doctor.
	It's like, what?
	I mean, literally, this guy, he grabbed, like, pushed her into a room, started groping her tits, right?
	She was absolutely shaken up, distraught.
	She's had to have sleeping tablets because she's struggling to sleep and she's afraid of the other male doctors.
	I'm guessing, you know, they're the diversity too.
	But his defense is amazing.
	And it's just, it's just, it's comically awful, right?
	Dr. Qureshi did say that he saw Miss A as being sexually available because she had had previous boyfriends.
	I'm sorry, Your Honor.
	I thought she was a whore.
	It's a cultural misunderstanding, you see.
	How can that be allowed to fucking wash?
	But, you know, he got struck off and they're like, nah, you can come back.
	It's fine.
	It's fine.
	I just didn't realize she wasn't a whore.
	She means she's had previous boyfriends.
	She wants me to grab her, pin her in the room, and then grab her boobs.
	Come on.
	It's just.
	But, you know, this is what happens when you start diversifying things.
	You know, this is a replacement doctor.
	And look at the multiculturalism and action.
	Isn't that good?
	How about farming in the UK?
	Let's have a look at the article.
	I haven't actually read this yet, but I saw that.
	This is the title that made me think, okay, I'm going to have to talk about this in some way.
	And it's an awful thing to have to talk about because everyone's going to call you a fucking Nazi for talking about it.
	But they're talking about it too.
	So, I figure I'm allowed.
	Look at this.
	Why farming in the UK is predominantly white and what's being done to increase diversity?
	Man, if there's one thing that's fucking limited, right?
	It's farmland in England, right?
	It's again, really small, really old country where everything has been divided up really, really neatly.
	You know, you should see the hedgerows around the West Country and in Yorkshire and stuff.
	And you've got little cops of trees.
	Everything is well planned out because it's literally centuries of negotiations that have taken place between people who own bits of land and like you know, parcel down and stuff like this.
	It's like, right.
	So there is literally, it's not like the American fucking frontier or something, right?
	This is not like a giant corporation where they could, oh, we'll just double the size of the fucking board.
	Fuck it.
	You know, we'll just, well, I know it's going to cost us, you know, 500 million a year or whatever to pay for a bunch of diversity highs.
	It's not, it's not something you can do that with.
	It is something where literally you have the native English and Welsh and Scottish farmers, and they are going to have to be physically replaced to make sure that like these people who can farm goats and sheep in England rather than in wherever they come from, you are actually going to have to replace.
	So to diversify English farming will necessitate a replacement of English farmers.
	There's no getting around it.
	Now, oh, you've got, oh, look, look at Sunny Jim in the chat.
	We've got dry stone walls in Yorkshire land, not hedgerows.
	Well, listen, right?
	I'm going to have to talk to Rory about this, how he feels about dry stone walls.
	Because it's hedgerows or trees.
	Josh is very much on the eco-friendly trees, but Rory is very much like a hedgerow Nazi.
	So it's a contentious issue.
	You're going to have to, we're going to have to have a debate about that.
	But this is the point.
	There's just no getting around it.
	There isn't like a bunch of free land that you could just clear and then start farming in England.
	There's just not, it's too small.
	It's too old.
	There's just no free space.
	So what's going to be done to increase diversity?
	I can't believe analysis by Sky News.
	Thanks, Sky News.
	I mean, God, if it wasn't Sky News, who would have guessed that English farmers were farming in England?
	Who would have known?
	Right?
	They found that 97.2%, 97.2% of workers in agricultural forestry and fishing are white, excluding seasonal workers, making it the least diverse job sector in the country.
	Well, someone's going to have to be replaced then, aren't they?
	You know, we can't have least diverse.
	I mean, I don't know what it's going to do to the quality of the farming.
	Should we ask Zimbabwe?
	Circle back to it later.
	Yeah, I will.
	But, oh, we definitely think there needs to be space for everyone to play a part in agriculture in the land-based sector.
	Okay, well, land is at a premium in England.
	If you are going to do that, you are going to have to literally replace the farmers.
	If we can educate more people, train more people from broader range of backgrounds, there'll be more people available in the future who've got the skills and qualifications and interests to make a difference in that sector and jobs.
	But what's the problem?
	Like, we've got farmers.
	What's wrong?
	Why do we need this?
	We don't need this.
	It's about reducing barriers.
	Yeah, okay.
	Why?
	Who cares?
	Why do we need diverse farming?
	Like, what percentage of Ugandan farmers are Ugandan?
	And I'm going to guess the answer is all of them, right?
	It's just, it's going to be all of them.
	And no one's like, okay, we need to, you know, we need to replace the Ugandan farmers because that would be considered colonialism, you see.
	But anyway, he says, I think we also know, let's be realistic, that the land-based sector is a rural sector, and we know nationally that ethnic minorities are more often in urban areas, and so that also plays a big role.
	Yeah, maybe.
	And it also plays a big role that they've just immigrated to the country.
	So why would you expect them to fucking own land here?
	Like, why would you expect them to be farmers?
	Farming being a settled profession.
	It's not like you can be a rootless cosmopolitan and then be like, Right, I'm going to, I'm going to become a farmer.
	It's fucking ridiculous.
	Why do you need that?
	Like, what's the obsession?
	What is the push to replace British farmers with foreign farmers?
	Like, who cares?
	What, if these people wanted to be farmers, why wouldn't they be farming in their own countries for a start?
	But why?
	You know, and all I can think of is it must be back to this kind of attitude.
	Where it's like, yeah, actually, the fact that they are white is the problem.
	It's not my opinion.
	That's their opinion.
	That's what they're saying.
	I don't think that a person's race is important at all.
	But when you're sat there going, yeah, so too many whites, that's an issue.
	I would be the same as if you went to a black country and like, hmm, too many blacks.
	Go to Israel, like, too many Jews.
	You know, I think that's wrong.
	I think it's totally wrong to start doing what you're doing.
	Try and socially engineer the farming sector for some reason.
	It's just really bizarre.
	But there are some obvious reasons for why farming is predominantly white.
	Because England is full of English people and they've been driven out of their cities.
	You know, they're not in Birmingham anymore, are they?
	Like, okay.
	Firstly, the rural parts of the country are far less diverse.
	Well, that's because the cities are being occupied by the nomads of globalism.
	Secondly, many farms tend to have been handed down through generations.
	That's right.
	Like, it's literally people's land you are going to have to take away from them and replace with foreigners working the land.
	Why?
	Why do you wish to dispossess English farmers of the very land they work on to diversify them?
	Because that's what you're going to have to do.
	But there are some who believe that more should be done to ensure those from ethnic minorities view farming as an accessible job.
	Yeah, I'm sure all the Stormsy fans are like, yeah, God, I wish I was working on a farm.
	If only I wasn't a drug dealer in London, I could just get my hands dirty and start planting some seeds.
	That's just what I would desire.
	Apparently, we need to break the mold.
	Ped Agrazan, typical Bristolian name, says we need to break the mold of being ultimately an old white man in a tractor and working the field, and that's what a farmer is.
	Why?
	Why does he have to be replaced?
	What's he done to you?
	Like, literally, what has he done to you?
	Ped.
	I mean, that sounds like an insult, isn't it?
	Ped.
	What has he done that you're like, no, he needs to be replaced?
	Has he not grown food well enough?
	Is it just that he exists in an ancestral plot somewhere in the southwest of England?
	And you're sat there like a fucking scheming evil vulture being like, yeah, I can't wait till he dies so I can take what's his.
	He's the problem.
	I think in food and farming in particular, we have a very multicultural society now.
	What?
	Literally, I think in food and farming in particular, we have a very multicultural society now.
	Interrupts himself.
	But no, no, multicultural, multicultural.
	So it's not, that is true.
	You know, one in four people in England are foreign.
	So that's true.
	And what we need to do is see better diversity in the food we're producing, the people with the skills, knowledge, expertise, many migrants, refugees, first, second generation as well as first generation.
	Fucking why?
	Why does the farmer have to lose his land and be replaced on it because a bunch of foreigners turned up in Birmingham and London?
	Why does he have to?
	What is the justification?
	And what lengths are you prepared to go to take this from him?
	Are you going to literally say, listen, Nazi, we're appropriating this because we're for diversity.
	Amazing.
	They managed to find the one non-English farmer or non-Welsh farmer, Musen Hassensin, a Muslim who 10 years ago left his life working marketing in London to buy a farm deep in the Welsh Valleys.
	He said, it's not really something that people from ethnic backgrounds look at because it's a very, very close group.
	Just going to the auction house, for example, you don't know what's going on.
	It's because you ain't a farmer.
	I never saw myself as someone who bought land.
	It just dropped a few years later.
	I've got cows, I've got goats, cheese, ducks, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	Good.
	That's when I call myself a British Muslim farmer at this point.
	Good.
	Brilliant.
	Worthy of an article.
	Thank God.
	We've got some journalists who will talk about it.
	I mean, can't we diversify the journalists?
	Diversify them with people who don't push this agenda.
	As in, replace them.
	Can we replace the journalists with people who aren't fucking lunatics?
	Racial ideologues who literally have got a plan to dispossess English farmers of their land.
	Can we not do that?
	I think there's a way of doing that.
	But anyway, let's, where are we going?
	Oh, farming is not an inclusive profession, says Hannah Udin.
	Okay.
	I think it's partly got to do with not knowing what farming is an acceptable profession to go into and not knowing how to go about it.
	for a lot of people it's what they do in their home country i know that you have escaped some backwards third world in order to come and experience the high life and the sophisticated career that you might find in london But have you considered being a fucking farmer?
	You know, go and herd some goats, but do it in England rather than doing it in Bangladesh?
	Have you considered why the fuck would they want to?
	What is the advantage to them?
	Honestly.
	But we found one.
	Anna Yassin.
	We found one.
	I don't think I'd be able to get in very easily, especially at school.
	I don't see it as very accessible.
	We always have these workshops for future jobs and aspirations.
	And I never saw farming or anything to do with animals.
	Oh, fucking hell.
	You'll have to go back to your farm in Sudan or wherever.
	You'll just have to do that.
	I mean, Jesus Christ.
	So anyway, the English farmers are going to get dispossessed.
	I mean, the Conservatives will just say literally, we're going to take your land.
	We're going to buy you off it or something like that.
	We'll make it illegal for you to be an English farmer anymore.
	Who fucking knows, right?
	But again, this is just, again, just one example in the many, many, many long list of examples of things that have definite fixed boundaries.
	And when they say we're going to diversify it, that means they have to replace someone who's doing it.
	You've got the classics, of course.
	Yeah.
	Sorry.
	Ancient people who wrote things and thought about stuff.
	We're going to broaden them.
	What does that mean?
	Well, we're going to replace a bunch of it.
	Obviously, to diversify these things, you are going to have to replace a bunch.
	Now, I would like to know what.
	Who exactly on Raphael's School of Athens, I've actually been to the Vatican and seen this in real life.
	The thing is, it's much more difficult to see because it's quite high up on a wall, or at least higher up for me, because I'm not very tall.
	And so all you get is like the angle of it.
	But who are we going to replace?
	I say start with Plato, actually.
	I'm happy for the great replacement to take Plato.
	Plato shit in every way.
	Literally, there's not a single opinion of Plato's that is sensible in any way, shape, or form.
	He's wrong about everything.
	We can replace Plato.
	I don't actually know who the rest of them are.
	I mean, I'll know who they are, but like, I can't tell by looking at them.
	I know Zoroastrians around here somewhere.
	It's not like Zoroaster is there with a globe or something.
	Anyway, we're going to diversify the Western canon, which means removing things from it.
	Gonna diversify newsrooms.
	I mean, I'm all for this.
	Let's replace the great replacement in newsrooms.
	Let's do that.
	Let's get rid of the Journos.
	We can replace them.
	We can replace the people at the New York Times.
	It's a rebuke to Democrats and whatever they think they're doing.
	We can do this.
	I mean, especially, I mean, look at the shit they put out, right?
	Is Chris Reagan okay?
	Like, because all I've, I'm not a Halo fan.
	I've not watched this fucking Halo show, but I've watched a bunch of people talking about it.
	And they say, well, look, I'm not a Halo fan either, but this is fucking bullshit, right?
	This is just nothing like the Halo franchise and the Halo games.
	Again, I'm not a fan, but I'm aware that Chris Reagan's a big fan of these.
	Has anyone checked on him?
	I haven't seen a video of his pop up in my subscription feed for fucking months.
	Has he hung himself?
	Because I would not be that surprised if he had.
	But I love it.
	Look at this amazing Journo take.
	This Halo series subverts expectations in brilliant ways.
	Have you tried subverting my expectations by making something fucking good for once?
	Like, everything you produce is shit.
	Everything that comes out, Hollywood is shit.
	Everything in Netflix makes is shit.
	Every new thing is shit.
	And all you are there is doing is ransacking everything that came before.
	Everything.
	Just like, yeah.
	And in all of the ransacking, like the Netflix adaptations is the meme is in and of itself to diversify means to replace.
	And they do this with particular characters.
	Whatever.
	You know, whatever it is.
	It's like, oh, Henry VIII.
	What is Anne Boleyn?
	Yes.
	We're going to literally replace her with a black woman.
	Okay.
	Why?
	I mean, we literally have portraits of Anne Boleyn.
	We know exactly what she looked like.
	Why not find someone who looks exactly like Anne Boleyn?
	But of course, they're not going to.
	But the point is, we can replace the Journos, I'm sure.
	And if we're all for diversification and diversification means replacing, well, then we've got to.
	I think we're morally obligated to replace these Journos and everyone who makes movies with someone who's got some fucking talent.
	My God.
	Honestly, I can't, can't take anymore.
	I'm sick of the fucking double thing.
	You know, it's like, look, you know, you know, right, when you say these things, when you say, I'm for diversity, what you are necessarily saying is that some people will have to be replaced.
	And I'm not saying that replacing things is bad.
	Replacing things when they are not fit for purpose is just fine.
	How are the UK farmers not fit for purpose?
	Now, I don't know anything about farming, right?
	I'm no expert.
	It could well be that UK farmers are fucking shit.
	I don't know.
	It could be that English farmers are just the worst farmers on earth.
	And maybe they should be rightly replaced because they're not any good at farming.
	I mean, Jeremy Clarkson is about this closest I've come to knowing anything about farming, right?
	I'm a nice soft office worker hand.
	But I think it seems a bit illegitimate to say, you know what?
	These people have got a certain color skin.
	That's what needs replacing.
	That seems a bit racially nationalist to me.
	It seems a bit evil.
	It seems like, well, I mean, I hate to say it, but it seems kind of like you're Hitler.
	I just fucking love Tim Wise.
	Precisely what Hitler said about Jews, in fact, isn't it?
	I mean, it just seems like you guys are the ones pushing this.
	And I don't know why, or I do know why, but it's because you're evil and you hate white people.
	Because you think white people are intrinsically oppressive to non-white people, which is a very progressive thing to say.
	But anyway, yeah, so if you want to, if you want to maybe read a comment out, go and post something on this.
	I haven't actually looked yet, so Generico says, Do you think it'd be useful or at least truthful to begin referring to ourselves as a diaspora of Britannic peoples?
	We're not propositional nations like the USA.
	We are particular people of a particular history and culture that other peoples have been imported wholesale into our borders doesn't erase our existence, but it does present a need to define what we are and what it is to be us.
	In this framing, loyal Caribbean, Indian, and South Africans would necessarily be considered Britannic.
	Progressive native English would not, as they are deliberately divorced from their own history and culture.
	They are effectively Soviet new men.
	Just wanted to clarify before anyone started saying anything about ethnostates.
	Yeah, I think the term ethnostate is a misnomer as well.
	What it means is racial state.
	Like, you know, as far as the progressives are concerned, they think that, like, you, Generico, would be fine if, you know, 30 million Bulgarians, Romanians, and various other Eastern Europeans just occupied England, like, you know, just took over England.
	They think you'd be fine with that.
	Oh, you've got the same skin colour.
	Oh, like, that fucking means anything.
	Like, skin colour actually has any particular significance.
	Like, honestly, it's just mental.
	But anyway, to your point, to your question, it is useful to refer to ourselves as a diaspora of Britannic peoples.
	Unfortunately, it seems that they don't care.
	And they'll still say, right, yeah, but look at your skin colour.
	You're evil.
	But you are, I think it is important for the Europeans in particular to be understood.
	And this is what Vosch just could not grasp, is that we're not propositional nations.
	Our nations are based on a contiguous heritage that is passed down from generation to generation.
	And they are all built on ethnic groups, which is why Finland is the land of the Finns.
	That's why Sweden is the land of the Swedes, etc., etc., etc.
	These are ethnic groups, and these are ethnically coherent nations.
	They always have been until the Americanization of Europe began.
	And now they're trying to make Europe, the EU, a propositional nation.
	I mean, the progressives tried to do exactly the same here.
	We're not.
	You know, we're an ancient settled.
	I actually think the best way for us to describe this, and there's a particular critical race theory essay that I think is particularly useful in this regard.
	We need to, I think, consider ourselves to be a tribe.
	Because we are.
	Like, literally, by the definition the critical race theorists would use of what a tribe is, the English fit that completely.
	They are in a generally well-defined territory of a self-identifying, coherent group of people that is based on relations with one another.
	And this means this puts them outside of the abstract categoricals of race, right?
	One of the problems that the MASHP tribe, that the critical race theorists talk about, is that they weren't based on race.
	They were based on who was in the tribe, right?
	And so someone like, say, academic agent, right?
	Not very British, half of him, right?
	Like my father, right?
	Half not British, but inducted into the tribe, like raised in the tribe.
	Likes the tribe, agrees with the customs, wants to keep the customs, wants the thing to be the thing that it authentically is that he was inducted into.
	And so, okay, I think that's doable.
	I think that if they're going to use that, which they do, then why can't we describe ourselves as tribes?
	Because we are.
	Like, we have culture and traditions and a heritage and a place where we live.
	Like, these are all true things.
	They're not based on race.
	Like, you know, the French aren't our tribe, although they might have our skin colour.
	The Irish aren't our tribe, even though they might have our skin colour.
	Questions still indeterminate about the Scots.
	You know, why can't we describe ourselves to be on ancient tribal land?
	Because we are.
	And I think that actually allows us to express the civilizational need to speak as the British.
	And this is what's being denied because of American race politics.
	But this was never, ever denied.
	If you go back 100 years ago, it'd be unthinkable for an Englishman not to think of himself in these civilizational terms.
	You know, these tribal terms.
	I am an Englishman, you are a Scotsman, you are a Welshman, and we understand that we all have a relation with ourselves and where we live and what the political entity is and what's going on.
	You know, again, not, I mean, they will have seen sort of racial terms when they went to like India or something.
	But in Europe, it's not a racial question.
	It's a tribal question.
	And are we allowed to be a tribe?
	Are we allowed to be a people?
	Are we allowed to have a connection to the people around us that we don't have with foreigners who have just arrived here?
	That's the question that the progressives are currently undermining.
	But I think that is true.
	I don't think it's racist.
	And I think it is something that is essentially a birthright.
	And to deprive people of that, well, like you say, they're trying to turn people into Soviet new men.
	These are the sort of Russoian savages.
	I'm going to have a deep think coming out about that as well, by the way.
	I've got a good take on that.
	I'll be able to explain that in very, very good detail.
	They want us to all be Roussoan savages.
	They want to consider the people of our country to be a fungible good.
	They think, oh, I mean, this is the whole thing about diversification.
	If you are going to, oh, we're going to take away the English farmers.
	We're going to replace them with foreign farmers.
	Then what they're saying is the English farmers are just fungible goods.
	But I don't look at them that way at all.
	I look at them like my countrymen.
	You know, they have a shared set of values and history and culture and tradition that I understand.
	And so when I talk to them, there is so much.
	I don't say baggage because it gives it a negative connotation.
	But there is so much layer.
	There's so many layers.
	There's so much weight and accumulated knowledge that comes with an interaction with me and some Yorkshire farmer.
	And it's not like we're the same either.
	He's going to hear my accent.
	He's going to look at my hands.
	He's going to look at my frame and be like, right, okay.
	City dwelling office fellow.
	And he's going to know a lot about me just on that alone.
	But the things I'm going to know a lot about him.
	I'm going to see his weathered face as rough hands.
	Here is Yorkshire accent and be like, okay, I've got a good image of what his typical traits will be.
	And so we'll have a good way of easily talking to one another without having even spoken yet.
	And this is what the stations of the tribe are.
	And this is why they're important.
	And this is what's being liquidated by diversity.
	And I don't like it.
	I just don't think it's fair.
	Anyway, I hope that answers your question there.
	But you are right about the Soviet new men.
	And man, I did a book club on Lotus Eaters about Michael Oakeshop's rationalism and politics.
	I think this is the key essay that we really need to think about in the way that we approach politics now.
	Because you'll notice I'm not talking in racial terms.
	I'm just not talking about race.
	I'm talking about things that are not abstract categoricals, and these are things that are intrinsic and essential and not universal.
	And Oakshot has got a great take on this.
	Go and check out the book club I didn't know.
	Anyway, sorry, I've got a dry throat.
	normally just talk on my own for ages now.
	Jacob says demographic shifts are a real and tangible thing.
	Well, Birmingham proves it.
	I'm personally a product of an interracial relationship between an immigrant and a white southerner.
	White population are not having enough kids, and a lot of the kids they have now are no longer white because their choice and partner are voting differently than them.
	They are birthing their opposition as well as being outbred by them.
	We are a derasinated people.
	Yeah, I mean, it's not wrong.
	That's the problem.
	It's not fucking wrong.
	And it's, I am also the product of an interracial relationship.
	And so I've got no issue with that at all.
	But it is the lack of induction into the tribe that I think you're getting into there.
	Whereas they don't consider themselves white because of the choice partner.
	They're now voting differently.
	And like you say, when you say the derecho state people, you, you aren't meaning like the Soviet new men down here.
	And that's, I totally agree.
	And it is an obvious problem that people are not being inducted into the tribes.
	I mean, it's unthinkable in any other country that if I, you know, just pick a fucking country.
	You know, there's not a Western country.
	If I went to Indonesia and I was like, right, I'm going to buy a house here.
	It's like, okay, well, you're going to have to do things the Indonesian way.
	Like, well, obviously.
	You know, why wouldn't I?
	Why would I think I was going to do anything in a different way?
	And I would try and do what I could do to induct myself into the tribe.
	And the thing is, right, there's nothing more flattering than this as well.
	There's nothing people like more than someone who is trying to join their tribe.
	Like, you go to another country and you try speaking to them in their own language.
	And they love it.
	They think it's wonderful that you're making the effort.
	And everyone thinks this.
	It's wonderful that you're dressing in their native clothes.
	You're speaking in their native language.
	You know, you engage in a fucking tea ceremony or whatever it is they do.
	You know, whatever little colloquial thing they do.
	They love the fact that you're prepared to come and try and integrate yourself into the local customs and make yourself conformable to what they expect.
	Like, that's nice.
	It's a generous thing to do.
	It's kind.
	There's a reason that you should do that.
	Major Tom says, unrelated, but since you said you would read these, I thought I'd mention it would be nice to have some sort of notification system that people can know when someone has replied to the comments and genericus has seconded.
	Yes, well, these things are in progress.
	At the moment, the things that are coming next on the website are we're doing a revamp of the way the layout is, because as you can see, like the cuts off, the thumbnails and counter's been complaining about since forever.
	So we will fix all of this.
	And this looks like contemplations.
	What's wrong with Western philosophy?
	I've had this week off, and I'll explain why at some point soon, hopefully.
	But yeah, this looks like good contemplation.
	Look forward to watching, man.
	But yes, so the layout, the new layout is, it looks very nice.
	It's coming.
	And a search function.
	Because one thing we definitely need, because I mean, when we first started, we didn't have like tons and tons and tons of content on the website.
	That wasn't really a problem.
	But now we've got fucking loads of it.
	And so, yes, a search function is definitely useful.
	But I will pass that along to the web developer.
	And at some point, we will get that done.
	Fred says, A lot of the attitudes to immigration among the elite seems to stem from a laughably romanticized view of American immigration, where people move to America to become Americans and live as loyal citizens who care about the good of the nation.
	In actuality, the vast majority of immigration is sparked by an utterly mercenary calculation where the most money can be made.
	Integration into America didn't really happen amongst immigrants, it happened several generations later once America sealed the border and forcibly cut them off from their homelands.
	This was coupled with a strong American identity that was forcibly pushed onto all citizens.
	Do you think that in the modern world, immigrants to the West would ever integrate given the weakness of the identity of the West and the fact that modern communications and flight means that they are still deeply linked to their homeland?
	If not, do you think there would be any way to get a more realistic view of the situation drilled into the elites who make the relevant decisions?
	Now, Fred, you have hit the nail on the fucking head there.
	And I swear to God, this is the entire problem.
	I did a premium podcast on those Caesars about the way things have changed, right?
	There was a BPC did a little like mini documentary with like new Bangladeshi immigrants who went to this particular area of London and they literally described it as new Bangladesh.
	And this guy in this interview was like, well, I can hardly believe I'm not in Bangladesh.
	This is wonderful.
	It's like, then why the fuck did you leave Bangladesh?
	Like, if you want to be in Bangladesh, why have you come?
	And the only answer, of course, it's not the weather, it's the money.
	You know, they've come here for mercenary reasons.
	And so we literally do have millions of mercenary immigrants here.
	And we can see this in the emigration statistics.
	So we get 700,000 immigrants settling here with permanent visas, but we also get 300,000, 350,000 who emigrate every year permanently.
	And that's very, very interesting.
	That shows that they see Britain as like a global way station.
	This is a place where they can go, earn some money for like five years, send it home, buy a house, buy a farm, whatever they do, and then just move back.
	And it's like, okay, well, like, I'm not begrudging them for doing that.
	I can see why you would do that.
	Like, the options there.
	The British government, like, yeah, of course you can come here and just do whatever you like.
	Send money home and then, you know, leave.
	Of course, you can do that.
	It's like, okay, well, great.
	But you are treating us as if there isn't a people who live here, right?
	This is the homeland of an indigenous tribe, several indigenous tribes, in fact.
	And so why wouldn't you show them any respect?
	And I think this obviously does come.
	You are absolutely right.
	It's the American view that was imposed on Britain by Tony Blair's government.
	There was a quote by John Prescott, literally, and I saw this.
	I wish I'd saved it.
	I saw a newspaper clipping of a John Prescott quote, and it was literally the crit.
	It was like, English people have no culture.
	What is the culture of England?
	It's like, fucking hell, man.
	Like, imagine that washing with anyone ever.
	I don't understand how anyone could have ever gotten away with.
	Of all the countries in the world, right?
	Of all the countries, England, England's fucking ancient.
	Like, there is a demonstrable lineage of history.
	Look at everything that happens in the parliament.
	Look at the Queen.
	Look at the pubs.
	Look at the things that we do.
	Look at English literature.
	Like, there's so much English culture.
	It's pouring out of the buildings.
	Like, the very, you can see the ancient buildings.
	Like, they're older than the United States.
	I go to bath and I go to this pub that was founded in like 1640.
	It's like, you know, like there's a tea room there from the 17th century and stuff like that.
	It's like the culture is imprinted on the landscape in the way that the hedgerows are decided.
	Like you, it's so demonstrably nonsense to say that England doesn't have a culture.
	No foreigner would say that.
	Every foreigner would recognize English culture when they saw it.
	And yet, this was the Tony Blair government attitude.
	And it's like, right.
	And the Conservatives don't know what they're doing.
	So they're just basically caretakers of the Blairite order.
	And so it's one of those things where it's just tremendously disrespectful.
	And I think that the English generally, I mean, the Celts, at least they get woke progressive narrative, nationalism.
	They get the little, you know, woke nationalist parties who are internationalists, but will at least say Scottish, right?
	They will at least admit Welsh nationalists or Scottish nationalists.
	It's like, what does that mean?
	Well, that means we're for immigrants, but okay.
	You know, but at least the Scots get to hear the sound of their own people echoed in their own parliament.
	Whereas there's no one in the English parliament in Westminster, which is the English Parliament, incidentally, who would admit of the concerns of England.
	There's no one.
	There is just nothing in the dialogue of this country that speaks to the concerns of England.
	And so when Peter Hitchens wrote an article the other day, ripping off my idea, by the way, Peter, I came up with this idea that England, it was a meme, admittedly, but you did flesh it out quite nicely.
	That in fact, England should secede from the United Kingdom.
	I mean, I'm personally, I've come to the conclusion that England is the last country that's being occupied by the British Empire at this point.
	Like, the Scots and the Welsh have basically got dominion status.
	Like, but England, it's just still occupied by Britain.
	Like, the Empire's over.
	The Empire is over.
	Britain as a project is finished.
	And it did a lot of good stuff.
	A lot of good stuff.
	And we should be rightly proud of it.
	But I think it also is time to start considering when it's right to let it go.
	Like, how long do we let this go on for?
	Because if we returned to being the kingdom of England, which sounds good, doesn't it?
	Sounds like a royal title.
	This is prestigious.
	You know, the kingdom of England has got glory hanging over it.
	Then things would change.
	You know, the English might actually be able to articulate a national voice and say, well, look, in England, maybe English concerns could be politically something important.
	But who knows?
	How do we get the elites to make relevant decisions to understand this?
	I don't know.
	I'm actually working on another deep think about this, how elites are captured.
	So the interestingly, the critical race theorists have actually given us a very clear path to capturing the elites.
	However, it's not going to be easy.
	It took them at least 30 years.
	I mean, probably longer.
	But it took them 30 years to develop.
	And one key aspect, again, I'll publish a deep think about this when I've finished.
	I'm about two-thirds of the way through it, but probably next week, week after.
	One of the key elements, though, is that you have to be working within the framework that already exists in order to capture them.
	If you come from, like, you know, the side, you know, the flows going that way.
	And if you come like this, you'll just find it an impossible barrier.
	And so that's why the critical race theorists began within the liberal tradition and just expanded it outwards to include that thing that they wanted, that was on the outside of it.
	And so they've essentially broken it open now into a sort of postmodern identity politics paradigm.
	And it is unfortunately for us within this postmodern paradigm that we must now operate.
	And this is again why I think actually we can incorporate into that paradigm the philosophy of tribes that they use and they're actively using when they promote their critical race theory agenda.
	If that's the paradigm we have to operate in, then we actually have room to maneuver here.
	And that's something you can present to the elites.
	But it's not going to be easy, and it's going to take a great deal of time, a lot of thought, and there will be demonstrations of suffering of the people who are on the receiving end of multiculturalism.
	I don't know how long it's going to take.
	It's going to take a while.
	But I think that's the way that it gets done.
	And it's not going to be easy.
	But yeah, they don't care at the moment, but that's because they don't see you as a tribe.
	LED The Mute says, have you heard of or looked at the demographic transition model?
	It describes what's currently happening, and I remember academic people were informed it was due to an increase in women's rights, sexual liberation, abortion, and focus on careers.
	British farming is more cultural symbol than effective industry per se.
	Diversity is probably the least of their worries compared to the animal rights and anti-hunt organizations.
	Well, it's the least of their worries until the conservatives go, oh, well, we're in for a penny, in for a pound.
	How can we replace the farmers?
	Like, we've replaced everything else.
	There was this article in Russia Today that I don't normally read Russia today, but this was just a fucking firecracker of an article that was written by an Indian guy who I can't remember his name, but he was basically like, look at what is fucking happening to Britain, right?
	Look at their elite class.
	That is being replaced as well, right?
	And so it's going to be the sort of pink gammon, like underclass, with like a beige middle class of, you know, university educated midwits and then a sort of brown upper class.
	Like, it's going to be like a fucking layer cake or something.
	Like, what is going on?
	Why is this being deliberately done to Britain?
	And this guy, like I said, this guy's a native Indian.
	He's not like a British Indian.
	He's an Indian Indian.
	And he was just like, look, look, this is the engineering project that is taking place.
	And it's like, okay, good question.
	Don't have an answer for you.
	Don't know why the Conservatives think this is the only moral good is to replace themselves with foreigners.
	I mean, okay.
	I'm happy for the Conservatives to be replaced, to be honest.
	But I'm not against it.
	Like I said, replacement is not a bad thing.
	When something's not fit for purpose, it's right to replace it.
	Don't get me wrong.
	There are genuine functional reasons to replace things.
	But if there's not something wrong with the thing, as in having white skin is not a flaw or a benefit, then why would you do it?
	Unless you were a racist and you were vindictive against white people.
	In the same way that I wouldn't replace black people in a black country.
	I mean, it's just lunacy.
	But I haven't heard of the demographic transition model, I'm afraid.
	Dr. Anthony Fauci, not related to the article, but will you mirror your old Sagan of the Count channel to Odyssey?
	Would it be good if Callum mirrors his Britannica politica channel to Odyssey as well?
	Their platform has been getting a lot better recently, and live streams on RC have been getting a lot better.
	You can actually see all the videos of the content creators you are following without an algorithm getting the way.
	I haven't got any plans to because I just do these as kind of off-the-cuff streams these days.
	Lord Narival, doing a stream on YouTube about the great replacement theory seems a little risky.
	No, I suppose since Cathedral seemed to be acknowledging it, you might be safe.
	Well, I mean, you know, like, if they can talk about it, and I can't, I don't know what I can do.
	Like, it just seems fair that if they're literally like, we're going to replace you, it's like, okay, I think there's something we can talk about here.
	But again, I'm not endorsing or, you know, anything.
	I'm not saying that, like, because one thing I should have stressed is they're going.
	Anyone who talks about this, and on the left, and in fact, they do a very poor job of explaining that there is an attached neo-Nazi conspiracy theory that this is a grand plot by Jewish people to replace the white race.
	And that will be attached to what has actually happened.
	Now, I'm not really interested in conspiracy theories when it comes to this anyway.
	The conspiracy theories I like are about Bigfoot and aliens.
	Apparently, there's a connection between Bigfoot and aliens.
	This is just something that has happened.
	And I don't think we need to resort to conspiracy theories to talk about this because this is prosaic.
	It's just in our faces.
	We know the Tony Blair administration opened up the borders in order to rub multiculturalism in the right's face.
	There was literally Blair's home secretary that said that at the time.
	You've got people like John Prescott, native Brit, who's just like, Britain doesn't have culture.
	England doesn't have a culture.
	And then you've got Tony Blair who wants to turn us into the United States of Europe.
	Europeanize us.
	And so there doesn't need to be a conspiracy.
	This is just all the open ideological motivations of the Labour Party and of the left.
	They want to be like America.
	We're not America.
	They need to understand that.
	Robert says, apologies, not too relevant.
	We just had an election in Australia.
	Now we're set to have an even more left-wing government.
	God help us.
	There are some silver linings, though, and I got to meet the New South Wales Premier himself, the equivalent of a US governor.
	Well, that's cool, man.
	That you got to meet the New South Wales Premier.
	Honestly, we are fucked in the UK as well.
	Well, I did a video on the Ludseaters.com channel talking about this.
	Like, most of the council seats in the UK are left-wing, right?
	The Conservatives are, like, hanging on by a thread.
	Come the next election, they'll probably get replaced by Labour because they're shit.
	it's like okay but why why do you the conservatives left-wing but even more left-wing But the British public are generally quite far right.
	And it's like, for some reason, they just keep voting for left-wing parties.
	It's just like, why?
	Like, you don't want them to uproot our civilization and replace it with something completely novel, do you?
	Like, you don't want that.
	And if you ask the person on the street, is that what you want?
	They'll be like, of course not.
	Of course I don't want that.
	Of course I want my place, you know, the place I live in to look like the place I live in.
	No, I don't want more brutalist buildings.
	You know, no, I don't particularly want more mass immigration.
	Like, it's like, okay, but that's what the Labour Party are offering.
	And you're like, yeah, well, I'm not going to vote Conservative, so I'm definitely going to vote Labour.
	It's like, okay, well then, I mean, God help us, I guess.
	Luke says, off topic, but I found Jordan Peterson's recent activity, the swimsuit model outburst, to be uncharacteristically mean-spirited for him and a bit of ridiculous hill to die on, considering that he seems to have had rage quit Twitter.
	I hope he's doing all right.
	Thoughts.
	Well, I hope he's doing alright too, obviously.
	I'm obviously a fan of Jordan Peterson.
	I think that he is right, and I knew what he was trying to get at.
	He's picked the wrong target.
	For some reason, everyone's saying that she had a really pretty face, and I didn't actually think she had a very pretty face, but that's not the point.
	The point was she was a bit overweight.
	But the thing is, she wasn't very overweight.
	There are much better targets on which to make that point.
	Is it Tess Holiday?
	That's the better target.
	She's massive.
	And she's in a swimsuit, and she's on covers and things like that.
	It's, oh, look at this beautiful, stunning brave.
	The other woman was just normal, right?
	She was a bit, you know, I don't know, 50, 70 pounds overweight, something like that.
	A few stone overweight.
	It's like, okay, don't get me wrong.
	That's not beautiful, but it's also not hideous.
	And it doesn't make his point in the strong way that he was hoping.
	And you are right.
	It was a bit mean-spirited.
	But you can see where he's coming from.
	Like, it is one of those things.
	It's like, she's not gorgeous, you know.
	I'm not looking at her.
	I mean, I'm looking at her and thinking, okay, well, I've had worse, but I've had better.
	Like, she's, you know, very mid, you know, but not attractive.
	And that's the point.
	But, like you say, it wasn't really very well delivered.
	And wrong target.
	There were much better hills to die on that one.
	Thomas says: as someone who watches this trend, the next century will deal with every nation of the world losing population in all nations.
	No matter what people try, every nation on earth, even the third world, will have to ride past the trend of having more old people than young people.
	I recommend you look up Peter Zessian's geopolitical work you can find on YouTube.
	Well, no, I'm actually not aware of Peter Zazian, but I'm aware that that's exactly correct.
	The problem as well, and this is another thing that I keep pointing out to people: is that look, okay, so you're like, you want to replace our lack of population by stealing other countries' population, right?
	That's a resource.
	Population is a resource, and there is labor that goes into producing children, right?
	You labor and resources.
	And you're like, yeah, so what we'll do is we'll just allow them to come over here, and then we will benefit from the accumulation of labor and resources that goes into growing and producing, say, a doctor from India or something like this.
	It's like, that's quite colonial, actually, thinking that we just have a right to those people's population simply because we have more money than this country.
	But also, it's kind of vampiric, isn't it?
	It's like we're going to feed on the blood of your young people.
	We're going to bring them over here to sustain ourselves.
	There's something eerie about it, and I just, it's wrong.
	It's totally wrong-headed.
	It's obviously not going to last, and there are going to be lasting consequences that you know, massive demographic changes, but it'll be changes to the character of the country.
	And even now, I mean, go to Birmingham.
	If you think you're living in England there, it's mad.
	Uh, Zoran says, I'm on holiday in England at the moment, hanging out in London.
	It's wild how many Ukrainian or Russian people with a lot of money wandering around seem to be spending lots of money.
	Seems weird.
	Went to Oxford, didn't visit Swindon.
	Oh, and Birmingham is an absolute hole.
	We stayed for a few days.
	I drove around and saw some sketchy places that say diversity is crushing that place.
	Yes, it is.
	One thing a lot of Americans have said to me when they come and visit England is: where are all the English people?
	Because they expect to see English people, and it's like, yeah, well, you went to London.
	Don't know.
	I mean, the new census is just going to be brutal.
	I reckon it will be about 35% English.
	It was 44% last time.
	Or I think it'd be 35% English.
	That's my bet.
	But we'll see.
	Here in Canada, the Native Americans are allowed to be proud of their background.
	Well, those are some white European backgrounds, British, made to feel ashamed of Canada's history.
	For example, there's a story about how expecting people to wear poppies for Remembrance Day is colonial thinking.
	Yet we're told other cultures' celebrations are valid, and it's racist to point out the hypocrisy.
	Yeah, it's not like poppies for World War One.
	It's not what should we not have tried to win World War One?
	Was that not a good thing for us to have won?
	It's weird, isn't it?
	Like, why would we want to be proud of our great victories as a culture?
	Reef says, Canada used to be very British.
	Yep, it did.
	We used to have the same banter between Scots, Irish, Welsh, and English Canadians.
	The occasional jab at the French, and having a bunch of Frenchies on hand probably makes that a lot easier.
	In the early 1900s, they populated the West with a large immigration push from Eastern Europe, but still by the 50s, the countries had the country a distinctive Canuck identity.
	In the 60s, it started with mass immigration from all over Europe, but the point by the 90s, the country was only about 70% British, French, and Indigenous Canadian.
	In the 70s, it opened up from everywhere.
	Today, it's less than 50%, and it's really palpable in our culture.
	It's changed so much in my 27 years, it's unreal.
	Glad I grew up in a small city where Canadian culture survived.
	The man is dying fast.
	It's not about being white, it's about being a Canuck.
	Yep, that's what I'm telling about.
	It's the tribal cultures, being a part of the tribe.
	And you totally get it.
	Hi, Carl.
	Check out Lament for a Nation by George Grant.
	It's right up your alley.
	I will put that in a browser window so I can look that up later.
	But yeah, no, it's terrible, isn't it?
	It's genuinely terrible.
	Like, you can...
	And you can sit there and say, oh, well, your Hitler's racist.
	And it's like, yeah, but we can see the numbers.
	We can see them.
	Like, you know, this has an effect, man.
	Like, look at this.
	And it's going to be down here by the next census.
	It's like, look, this has an effect.
	You can whine about it all you like, but people can see it.
	Generica says, tribes have chiefs.
	British people have barons and dukes.
	Are you volunteering for Baroness Swindon, Duke of Wiltshire?
	Ah, yeah, so that would be wonderful.
	I would love to be the Baron of Swindon.
	Sounds awesome, too.
	But yes, they do.
	And that's exactly the point.
	We have barons and dukes.
	Yes, we do.
	That's exactly right.
	We are an ancient established tribal culture that has pre-rational titles still embedded in our political system.
	And they still hold some political power in the House of Lords.
	And we have a king or queen ruling over us with princes and princesses.
	Like, we are not the American Republic.
	You know, this is the point.
	This is a deeply, deeply ancient tribal culture.
	And it's wrong for them to just upend it.
	Thomas says, is this aspect of the tribe, as you have been laying out, just civic nationalism on the basis of relation and culture?
	Or are you incorporating people such as A's where there's people of mixed ancestry but strong cultural diversion?
	Well, it's not any kind of nationalism.
	That's the point.
	Nationalism is a rationalistic Enlightenment project, right?
	Where it incorporates the entire nation as a political entity.
	That's not what I'm arguing for.
	What I'm arguing for are the pre-rational tribal ties and the relational ties between settled people in a settled area.
	As in, the people of Manchester and Liverpool are settled peoples.
	They have a relationship.
	There is a relationship between the Liverpudlians and the Mancunians.
	And anyone in Britain will know exactly what the relationship is like.
	Spoiler alert, it's adversarial.
	But the point is, these are the tribes of Liverpool and Manchester.
	This is not like rationalistic nationalism.
	This is emotional relationism that I'm arguing for.
	And so, you know, civic nationalism doesn't, that's not a relevant concept to what I'm talking about.
	If the question is, should the law apply to everyone equally?
	Yes.
	The laws should apply to each individual without favor.
	Obviously.
	This is the English tradition and we should keep it.
	It's a good tradition.
	But that's the point that I'm trying to make.
	This is our tribal tradition.
	This is what we do as the English tribe, the British tribe.
	These are things that we do, and we should be able to hold on to these.
	In the same way they say, oh, you can't draw a picture of the Prophet Muhammad.
	Okay, well, you can't have special racial favour then.
	This is offensive tribally to me.
	And as an Englishman, honestly, I really mean that.
	Like, as an Englishman, I can't stand this fucking racial favoritism.
	I just can't take it.
	Anyway, I'm going to take a couple more of these.
	Now I'm going to have to go to bed because it's half 12.
	Callum says, will England and English culture and way of life last long enough to get a majority to care for independence?
	Seems we're heading in the direction of Constantinople.
	Also, yes, many of the 50-plus conservative English voters are used to a somewhat culturally conservative Labour Party, and they'll vote for the skin suit.
	I know, it's fucking insufferable.
	You'd think that Boris would have broken that, right?
	They've been like, look, is there something wrong with the Labour Party?
	There is something wrong with the Labour Party.
	It's not our party anymore.
	Okay, good.
	Then fucking vote for him.
	You know, vote for anything else.
	God Thurgloth Bear says, off topic, but the next stream you do with Louis Levi, you should ask him to talk about the attack on Titan author choosing to subvert and twist his own audience into left-wing neoliberal ideas with his ending.
	Oh, God.
	I haven't seen Attack on Titan.
	V keeps going on about it.
	But he wrote fans in Mac Nationalism versus Giant Zombies and turned around and lectured them about racial guilt and reparations.
	See, this is what they were all talking about.
	It's like, look, like, Attack on Titans, like, based?
	I haven't seen it.
	Like, he was on track to become the next Heinlein.
	Instead, he chose to become a Paul Verhoven.
	Oh, that is sad.
	That is very sad.
	All right, and I'll read Thomas's and then we'll end it.
	Thomas says, as an American who can date his heritage back to 1609, bloody hell.
	I can't date my heritage back to 1609.
	I can say that while many have connections to the US, many who have such heritage as mine are either unaware of it because their most recent immigrant ancestor is what they think they are or do not care at all.
	I can literally be speaking to a second generation American and get along with them better than some of these older so-called Americans.
	The American dream resonates deeper in some of these people.
	The issue is immigration, cultural integration, and internal enemies are destabilizing our Grand Republic.
	Yes, but then you are currently engaged in literally a civil war with the Democrats who want to turn your English republic into a French republic.
	And that's not good.
	They're incompatible as well, by the way.
	Totally incompatible.
	And it comes down to the very concept of rights.
	What is a right?
	You know, you're going to have to think about what a right is to be able to understand any of this.
	Oh, God, I keep doing that.
	I should lock that really.
	Anyway, thank you, everyone, for joining.
	Thank you, anyone who signed up on literacy.com.
	Like I said, that's how we keep the lights on because we like to discuss difficult things and you know how that goes.
	Anyway, I will do another one of these soon-ish.
	I will find myself with more free time nowadays.
	So I've got some really good stuff coming.
	I'm going to do a review of 2,000 mules.
	Am I even allowed to say that on YouTube?
	I disavow 2,000 mules.
	I'm going to do that for literacies.com because I found that very interesting.
	But I can't comment one way or another.
	So I think I can say that I'm going to review it and that's about it.
	But maybe I shouldn't even mention it.
