Time Text
Yeah.
Top it up as I go.
I'll try one of those.
Share on your when you're done with that one.
Yeah.
Can we take one right now?
Um, yeah, we got a couple of minutes.
Okay.
Let's see.
It looks like this thing is working.
Howdy, folks.
You're two minutes early still.
Comments uploaded.
Can somebody give me a hello to make sure I can actually see things on here?
Last comments are about Afghanistan, which I don't think we're going to get into that too much tonight.
I mean, it's like shit, we can get into just about anything.
There we go.
We've got Turner and Nooch.
He and I are working on a cowboy ballad.
It's coming along really well.
I really want to show you guys.
It's not ready yet.
It's not quite ready.
And I think it's coming along really well.
I'm excited to show you guys this.
It's going to be tossing it up on YouTube.
I'm thinking, I'm thinking, you know what, Turner, we should set a date.
I'm thinking next Friday, actually.
We might have it all together by next Friday.
But yeah, have like a launch date for it.
Like we've done a couple of little things so far.
Buddy, if you want to toss the Age of Man into the comments there, people can click on that.
That's a fun avant-garde experimental track that we did.
We're just waiting for Big L. All right, so let's try this discussing stuff.
Tantonics.
Oh, I don't mind this at all.
Yeah, come on music, if you will.
Yeah, it's not bad.
Oh, there's the rhubarb.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's weird.
Never rub another man's rhubarb.
That's right.
That's from the 1989 Batman, by the way.
My mother thought that was tremendously rude for a kid's movie.
Yeah.
Probably get that bottle so we can have a PSA up against this gin.
Um it's actually it's just surprising.
Yeah, so Big L picked up this bottle of uh gin.
Yeah.
Wait, what the hell was reflecting?
Oh, that's you, okay.
So I saw movement in the background.
Uh soldiering instincts.
Any movement, I'm noticing it.
What the hell is that?
Nah, just Big L.
So here we go.
It's Whitley Needle, handcrafted gin.
Eyesight back in three days, guaranteed.
Yeah.
No, it's actually really fancy stuff.
Yeah, I bought this.
It was like $60 regularly on sale for $30.
It's hard to argue with.
So I was like, might as well.
I like to experiment, but man, do not pay $60 for that.
You don't like the rhubarb at all, eh?
Well, it's got like a sweetness to it.
I kind of like sweet liquors.
Yeah, not a good quality liquor, you know, it's just like, I don't know.
It just reminds me of that.
What is it?
Like flavored smear knock vodkas.
Yes.
Our absolute favorite.
It's okay, but it's like, it's just mass-produced.
Artificial flavors.
It's really good gin, though.
Okay, like I've got my buddy Griffin.
Right?
It's smooth.
It's definitely like there's no taste of nail thinner or nail polish.
Yeah, yeah.
Like it's.
It's got that bite of gin, but it's got no nail polish remover.
It's really good gin.
It has this weird rhubarb in it.
Which I like rhubarb, but it's just sweet.
It's like, why didn't they put...
Yeah, it's not an artificial flavor, by the way.
It just...
It is reminiscent of white claws or something like that.
Yeah.
It's like a really fancy, organic white claw, in a way.
I kind of like it.
Well, we'll drink it.
Yeah, we'll drink it.
And we're mixing it with tonic water.
Yeah.
Because, as most of you know, I cannot take horse ivermectin.
Right?
I'd have to be wearing track pants all the time, if you know what I'm saying.
You know what I'm saying, man.
To have to get some new pants at Walmart.
No.
I already have to put them on two legs at a time.
So because I can't take horse ivermectin to protect us against the deadly plague, we are drinking quinine water.
Yep.
Which, guys, if you're that worried about COVID, like pick up tonic water.
You gotta drink a lot of it because the quinine is pretty diluted.
Right?
But just pick up a 24-pack and drink the whole thing in a day.
You know, quinine works against the malaria.
It probably works against COVID.
So, boom.
And you won't be going like Susan and sharding herself at Safeway.
It's at Save On Foods.
I haven't heard the story.
God so this I'm gonna be frank I think this is a PSYOP.
Right?
It also might not be, and hey, let's credit where credit's due.
This is the first real win the left has had in the Meemore for a while.
So I'm just, I'm inclined to let them have it.
Yeah.
So you had too much ivermectin and it caused diarrhea?
Well, people have been buying up the stuff intended for cattle.
Yeah.
Because you can't, like, the doctors won't prescribe it, even though it does seem to work against COVID.
And it's in the correct dosage.
Yeah.
It's perfectly safe.
Yeah, and they say formulated for cattle.
I'm pretty sure that means it's dosed for cattle.
Dosed, yes.
I think that's what they mean when I say they say or formulated for horses or whatever.
I mean, you can eat oats that were meant for horses, right?
Yeah.
One time, my mom got me, back when I had Space Dog, my mom is such a hippie.
She got me some organic dog treats.
Right?
They're venison organic dog treats.
And so me and my buddy said, you know, what the hell?
Let's try a little nibble of this to see if it's any good.
And it was actually pretty good.
I mean, there was no salt in it.
It wasn't...
it wasn't flavored to humans.
But it was, like, it was food gray.
It wasn't like lips and assholes, you know?
It was slightly better than hot dogs.
So yeah, it's like horse ivermectin is still ivermectin.
Yeah.
But what's been happening?
Well, allegedly.
See, the thing is, you're only supposed to take ivermectin if you actually have COVID symptoms.
And you take it with zinc and supposedly that... supposedly that helps you fight it off before it gets bad.
What's allegedly been happening is these Karens have been taking like mega adult doses of ivermectin and then sharding themselves at the grocery store.
Is this normal?
So yeah, I'm pretty sure it's all a psyop, right?
But at the same time, it's a pretty good meme.
Yeah.
Right?
It's like, refuses to wear a mask, wants to take, I'm not a sheep, give me horse.
Yeah, I mean, it's been going on forever, and then I guess, what's his name there?
Joe Rogan took it, and now everybody knows about it.
And now they gotta be like, put the fire out, put the fire out.
Yeah, see, what happened?
Trump.
Trump mentioned that it was one of the avenues of research, right?
Because I believe COVID attacks through the same, like most coronaviruses attack the lungs.
Yeah.
COVID-19 is a weird one that attacks the blood, much like malaria does.
And so there was some early evidence that malaria treatments might be useful for COVID.
Trump happened to mention this.
And because Trump is evil, that means that vermectin is evil.
Yeah.
You know, it's interesting that it's an anti-parasitic.
Anti-parasitics seem to do well against COVID.
Well, don't.
You know what?
I'm not going to speculate on why.
Yeah.
I have no, I'm not, not really my strong suit.
Like, I know a little bit of pharmacology.
You gotta, if you're gonna be me.
But not enough.
Like, I could speculate as to why.
Yeah.
For such a deadly disease, they sure forbid a lot of drugs that can heal it.
Oh, God.
Guys, look up.
You know, I've shared this a few times.
And Turner Hooch, thank you for the lemons.
Guys, support my drinking habit.
Toss me some lemons or back me on Patreon for a buck.
I'm not worth that much.
And thank you to all the backers as well.
What was I about to say?
Oh, yeah, guys.
Look up who was pushing AZT.
Yep.
So you guys remember all the AIDS patients dying in the 90s?
And then, for some reason, starting in the aughts, nobody was dying of HIV or AIDS anymore.
There were a few people, right?
But it was like this pandemic, and then it kind of disappeared.
Yeah, with the treatment killing value.
It turns out, it's like AIDS, it's immune deficiency syndrome.
Yep.
deficiency.
So somebody with AIDS is going to, they're going to catch diseases way more than your average person.
It doesn't mean they can't fight off the disease.
And so one of the things they found is treating people for the disease actually worked really, really well.
Whereas giving them AZT, which was a, anyway.
Yeah, it was the AZT killing them.
It was the treatment killing them.
And take a wild guess, who is the overpaid doctor that was pushing this despite it going against all ethical boundaries.
Yeah.
And you watch.
Exactly who you think it is.
Yeah.
And you watch that clip I sent you of H1N1 scare.
I swear to God, you don't actually send me these clips.
Oh, well, in it, it has our favorite America's doctor's doctor pushing a vaccine that was so awful that Canada basically just banned it outright.
Or at least they recalled a bunch of it.
I don't know if they ever went back on the recall.
That was just a series of clips and I haven't looked into it, but America's favorite doctor saying that the young, the pregnant should get it.
Young and the pregnant are the first ones that should get every brand new experimental technology.
Yep.
Because they deserve it.
Yep.
I mean, it's Jurassic.
Literally, Michael Crichton wrote Jurassic Park about how we had this new, like, DNA modification was this brand new technology that was extremely powerful and people were going to use it recklessly.
And so he wrote about cloning dinosaurs, because that's a cool, everybody loves dinosaurs, right?
Yeah.
To get people to read the damn story.
But the Frankenstein story was not about the damn dinosaurs.
It was about the mad scientists playing recklessly with DNA.
And that's what we are seeing.
You know, it's not that GMO foods are fundamentally a bad idea.
It's that Monsanto is an evil company.
Yep.
It's not that mRNA doesn't possibly have some sort of application.
It's that we are jumping into this and like no control group just doing it to the whole population when we don't know what it is.
We don't know what the effects are.
And it's, again, this is not a vaccine.
We know what vaccines are, right?
They all have slight negative side effects.
Some of them had really bad ones, and so we pulled those off the market.
Some of them are leaky, some of them are non-sterilizing.
And we used to understand this.
There were good vaccines and bad vaccines.
There's good rubber to make tires out of and bad rubber to make tires out of.
But the mRNA, brand new space age technology, we don't know what the hell it is.
Yep.
But this mad scientist wants to go half-cocked and now everybody's getting eaten by raptors.
Yep.
One of my YouTubers I watched made a great observation about you go into any local Whole Foods store where they sell non-GMO produce and look at the clientele and see how many people are wearing masks, even if they don't have to.
Oh god, you know what?
And assume that they're vaccinated.
You know.
And you made the great joke, genetically modified humans refusing to eat genetically modified food.
Although, let me say, we got to back off from, like, we can't be attacking the vaccinated.
Right?
I was at my vape shop today.
Yeah, I'm one of those guys now.
I was at my vape shop, and I was sitting around chatting with the guy.
And so he's a bit older than me.
Yep.
And so he got the first vaccine because he wanted to travel.
And he's older.
Like, you and I are not at risk from COVID.
It's Like, quite frankly, like, I'm more likely to have a heart attack from vaping too much than I am to die from COVID.
Yep.
He's older.
It's a different probability calculation for him.
But he got the first one.
And actually, he's regretting it now because he's looking like, wait a minute.
What's going on?
Really?
But he's also, he got it so he could travel.
He got it because he's a bit older.
not because he's a nazi that wants to have vaccine passport and he and i we just were just it's like you know that Yeah, I know that.
And you know that?
Yeah, I know that too.
It's like 100% the same page.
Good.
So.
That's interesting, you know, because it's very true that saying it's easier to fool someone than to convince them they've been fooled.
And that's why I'm saying, like, we got to be non-bullying.
Yeah, you got that.
No, like, that's a bad attitude to have, guys.
People got vaxxed for a lot of reasons, right?
Yeah.
Some of them because they were psycho charens.
Right?
Remember those protests that were happening down near your place?
Yeah.
With all these, all these Karens with masks demanding that we return to lockdowns?
Yep.
Yeah, those people are communists.
Those people are enemies of liberty.
but most of them, there's a huge middle ground.
Yeah, I heard a good talk basically on the same subject saying currently the population is basically one-third communist, full-on, don't regret it.
On board, one-third are anti-vaxxed.
They know what's going on, and the other third are vaxed normies.
So, you know.
Although, that normie pool is that's the first place in the tide's going out, man.
I think it is a battle for the middle when it comes to all these mandates and mandatory vaccinations and passports, right?
So be nice to the normies because they're the ones that are the ones holding the policy strings.
Well, and this is also why I'm saying, let the left have this meme about the horse vaccine.
Alright, so first of all, it's a good meme.
It's a damn good meme.
You know, I'm not a sheep.
Give me sheep drugs or whatever it is.
It's a damn good meme.
Let's be frank, there are a lot of preppers, preppers are a little bit crazy.
right they it's a form of in many cases it's a form of like dealing with anxiety right This thing, like, veganism is an obsession with health to an unhealthy degree.
Same thing with a lot of preppers.
And so they do kind of spiral off into really weird stuff every once in a while.
Let the left have this meme, right?
And say, like, yeah, there are some crazy, there are some crazy people on our side for crying out loud.
I mean, look at the plastic German army hat brigade.
Yeah.
Not for crying out loud, but it like to use it to open dialogue with people as opposed to Yeah, yeah So, alright, let's check these comments here.
Maddie says she's been taking quercetin and green tea extract with zinc.
Yeah, well, I've heard a lot about good things about zinc.
Zinc and vitamin D, I believe.
Get some sun, workout.
Actually, the numbers.
Don't be fat.
Interesting homemade recipe apparently that has natural quinine in it is grapefruit peel.
Really?
So you dehydrate it and crush it up and make a tea out of it.
I love grapefruit, man.
I need to get.
I need a wife so that I can have fruits and vegetables because I forget I have them until they're growing mold.
Yep, me too.
Oh, by the way, I discovered something amazing.
Yep.
Did you know that when you're frying your bacon, you can toss some kidney beans next to it.
Oh, yeah.
And they fry in the bacon grease.
And they are done at the perfect time to put the eggs in.
And oh my god, they are so good.
They are so freaking.
Why did nobody ever tell me that they were this tasty?
Right?
That's it.
You fry them in bacon grease, boom.
You eat that breakfast, you do a backflip, you feel like Captain Picard.
Maybe even Riker.
Even Riker!
Oh yeah, yeah.
I did say that, didn't I?
Well, because, listen, I don't.
I don't have a really strong understanding of how every system in the body works.
I actually think I might have a like way better than average.
Well, average is probably pretty low.
Average is pretty damn low, though.
So it's like.
Oh, yeah, I would consider my medical knowledge slightly above average, which is basically non-existent.
Yeah, which is like you're smarter than a horse.
Yeah.
Which is why you can take horse medicine.
Exactly.
Exactly.
You know, improve on that Celtic horn.
But I do understand how demographics work, how statistics work, which this is actually a big one.
Most scientists have no idea.
They think a p-value is something handed down from on high.
P-value literally comes from Dungeons and Dragons.
You know, crit 20 or critical failure.
It's a 5%.
It's just because something doesn't exceed a p-value doesn't mean it doesn't exist, right?
It's a.
I'm not going to get into it, but bacterial growth, movement through populations, herd immunity, these are statistical phenomenons, right?
And it's like, as long as you have a perfectly circular cow in a vacuum, I can tell you how to run a farm, you know?
And with something like viruses, epidemics, it is pretty damn close to a spherical cow in a vacuum.
Like, you don't really need to know how the virus works.
You just need to know the rough approximation of the R0 value.
Right?
And COVID-19, while we thought it was 1.4 to 2.4, it's like 0.4 to 1.4.
It's even less infectious than we thought.
And you look at the graphs, they perfectly match modeled simulations of viruses propagating through a population.
And we actually had herd immunity back in December of 2020.
Yep.
I mean, as close as we're going to get because there are livestock, there's animal reservoirs.
Yeah.
So guess what?
It's endemic.
It's never going away.
That's right.
I think my poor kitty got it.
Hmm.
Is that why he's fat?
No.
That's not how he didn't die, even though he's fat.
Yeah.
No, it's because he's hardcore.
It's because he knows how to whine for things.
Yep.
What does he say to you?
I'm entitled to my entitlements.
Basically, yeah.
Every day.
Let's see.
So yeah, you're never gonna.
You know, another thing I said?
If they were actually serious about the flu vaccines, right?
Back before the era of COVID, remember, it's like, get your flu vaccine!
Every flu season, there's multiple strains of the flu going around, like home A, B, C, and D.
And one of them, A, looks like it's going to be the major one.
So if you catch the flu, it's like 75% chance you got the A variant.
Oh, yeah.
And so they distribute a vaccine for the A variant.
Now what happens if everybody gets that vaccine?
Well, suddenly the A variant is no longer the dominant variant.
It's the B variant now, and the vaccine is completely useless.
If they were remotely serious about saving lives, they would restrict the flu vaccine to those at risk and those who are working with them.
Nurses and old people, essentially.
And you would not be allowed to get it.
Because we want you to get the A.
We want A to be the dominant strain.
Except they're not serious about saving lives.
They're serious about selling vaccines.
Because the government pays for the damn thing.
They don't care if the B variant goes wild and kills all the old people.
Hey, they got vaccinated.
That's all that matters.
And the exact same shit goes for this coronavirus.
Yeah, this one is a little bit unique compared to the other ones, but it's still a coronavirus.
Mutates too damn fast.
Leakerin says, I don't like the preppers who are professional fear-mongerers.
Yeah, there's a lot of that, guys.
Don't.
Listen, do some prepping, right?
Have some extra bottles of water around.
Maybe some canned goods, right?
But don't.
Don't let yourself get worked up.
Right, and if you're, I mean, if you like swords, join Shadiversity Chat hosting on Facebook, right?
Like, we're not actually preparing for the apocalypse.
We're just pretending that we're preparing for the apocalypse because we like doing that.
LARPing.
Exactly!
I mean, LARP because it's fun.
Don't LARP because you're seriously terrified and neurotic and yeah, sorry I missed the the ivermectin part It probably works, right?
They were using it in third world countries, and it seems to work pretty darn well.
But it's not profitable, is it?
Anyway, we're 20 minutes in.
We're not even on topic.
Yep.
Topic of the stream is how do we avoid the dystopia that's coming?
Not just complain about the whatever latest BS our noble leaders are unloading on us, but what the hell should we be striving for to prevent the alternative?
Because I think we all know what the alternative is and it's quite ugly.
Yep.
and kind of the place i wanted to start was reflecting over what the see i want like i don't The distant right, I'm going to say.
Because the dissident left has largely been captured.
Okay?
It's.
You know what?
Let's put it this way.
If it was the 1980s, the dissident right would have been blindly supporting the Contra Iran-Contra affair.
They would have been blindly supporting the neocons.
Oh, James Lindsay had a fantastic way of describing neocons.
Yeah.
They're a Trotskyite that picked up a Bible and pretended to believe in it.
I heard that today, yeah, it's beautiful.
perfect description and i think yeah a lot of the like who's that guy with boneitis on on futurama Well, I forget.
Bonitas.
I don't know.
Cash for bones?
No, he was like the 1980s guy that's like, yeah, man, buy low, sell high.
Cha-cha-ching.
Don't you worry about the market.
I'll worry about X.
Yeah.
Total scam artist, 80s Reaganite type asshole, right?
And those assholes really led to the, like, the first recession we had in the 90s.
And, you know, that one hit my family really hard, so I remember that one.
But it's like, nah, trust Reagan.
Trust the CIA.
They're not doing anything bad.
Yeah, that was the dissident right back in the 80s.
For the past 20 years, the dissident left has been captured by the neo-Marxists.
For the most part.
Right?
Not saying they're all assholes.
they've been played like a cheap fiddle to institute corporate technocracy and the the dissident right has been fighting all of the in retrospect all these stupid battles Like, free markets are better than socialism.
Right?
Like, common sense stuff.
Free markets are better than socialism.
Ryan Falk used to be huge into that.
And because we had this progressive socialism being pushed, he went all into like free market anarchy and huge explorations of Hans Herma.
Hoppa.
Hoppa, yeah, yeah.
Aaron Clary was doing the same thing.
Girls don't like nice guys.
They like masculine men.
Right?
And seriously, the 90s was just be a nice guy, be a simp, be carry around tampons in your merc for your lady friends.
Broke, carrying around tampons for your lady friends.
Woke, carrying around tampons for your wife.
Bespoke, carrying around tampons to put in bullet wounds.
but yeah yeah it's so that's like no be masculine guy There's nothing wrong with masculinity.
Yeah.
Then the whole, like, the feminist destruction of divorce courts, of domestic violence, like, they're still pushing that one.
Men.
No, women do 50% of domestic violence.
And that's, that's an established fact.
women are as evil as men they just tend to do like women tend to poison men tend to use their fists okay Well, with domestic violence, it's more the frying pan.
The frying pan meme of the 1950s was real.
Oh.
Yeah.
yeah there's actually a who's that Who's that painter that did the Americana?
The.
Oh, boy.
I know who you're talking about.
He's the one that did all those Santa Claus pictures with him in red.
He was a Rockwell, wasn't he?
Rockwell.
Norman Rockwell.
Yeah, Norman Rockwell.
There's a bunch of Rockwells, but yeah, Rockwell.
Google, you guys at home, Google Norman Rockwell Marriage Counselor.
It's this picture of a couple with a kind of like a prim and uptight husband with a black eye and this wife sitting next to him with a sly little smile on her face.
Yeah.
Right?
Domestic violence is 50-50.
But the courts don't recognize that currently.
So be careful when you allow a woman into your life.
Toxic women can get away with a lot of stuff these days, which harms the good women.
It's like 5% of them are bad, and the other 95 have to be considered a suspicion, right?
What else?
I mean, Jordan Peterson was the one that really put to bed the 70 cents on a dollar canard.
Oh man, it persisted for so long.
So long.
Oh, God.
And in retrospect, like, it was all such a waste of time.
I know.
Like, it wasn't a waste, I'm not saying, I'm saying that it's like the people that were promulgating the 70 cents on the dollar.
Men are the exclusive violent ones.
Critical race theory is the like it actually just died down.
We've now moved to Covidian stuff.
They're not arguing in good faith.
It's in Malafide.
They are throwing this stuff up just so that we are wasting our time asserting that the sun is in the sky.
The sky is blue and 2 plus 2 equals 4.
Yep.
And they've been very fucking effective at subverting our societies with all these lies.
And as a consequence, like the dissident right has been lost, like it's been locked out of politics, right?
And Trump was our last real attempt there, and Trump was completely blocked from doing anything that he wanted to do.
And so there's been this.
There's been this attitude amongst the right of we need to explore alternative options, right?
Christian nationalism, monarchy, that the liberal democratic experiment failed.
And first, I'm starting to think that that's an incorrect assessment.
Yep.
Now, number one, I'm going to say that the ban abortions so we cannot punish by God.
Like, good lord, ban abortions, yes.
Okay, that's that's one of the few morality things I will get completely on board with.
Abortions are completely evil.
Yeah, accidents happen.
That's what adoption agencies are for.
Yeah.
Right?
No, you're going to regret the abortion.
I swear to God, you are going to regret the abortion unless if you're just one of these people that really just, if you've got a soul, you are going to regret the abortion.
Yeah.
I've never met a woman who hasn't.
But it is.
Yeah.
Anyway, I don't want to.
Don't want to get into that.
Yep.
The problem with the Christian right, like this whole, I don't know, we're going to have a Christian monarchy.
We're going to have, put on plastic German army helmets and klux up and down the road.
Like that.
The problem with that is that you don't get a Christian monarchy without people acting like Christians.
Purely by accident today, I stumbled into that.
It was the C.S. Lewis Doodle series.
Yeah.
It was a chapter from Mere Christianity where he was addressing what should a Christian government look like.
Yeah.
And his thesis was: Christ didn't say anything about running a government.
No.
He talked about how we should treat one another.
Yep.
And so, oh, what should we do with the banking system?
Well, the church needs to give us leadership.
Yeah, the church, as in the guy that goes to church and has a degree in economics.
That guy needs to show leadership.
Not the priest.
He doesn't know.
Good lord, have you heard the Pope talk about anything lately?
His training is not in apparently anything.
The Pope's not the one that needs to explain to us how to fix the economy.
Christian economists are the ones that need to be doing that.
And when you start trying to do theocracy, which I'd say this is the big problem with Islam, you turn the perfect into the enemy of the good.
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, definitely.
It's a good observation.
You would see the same thing in not just the Islamic world, I would think.
I think that is probably the impetus of America.
With the, I mean, America was meant to be pan-Christian state, right?
Because, I mean, they're always talking about, oh, well, freedom of religion.
Yeah, it's true.
That's in American American system, but it was always assumed that it was going to be Christian Americans of all denominations.
It was a non-denominational Christian state, was how I always interpreted the impetus of America.
See, I always Christianity in here.
Now, when I'm describing Islam, I'm describing the political system of Islam.
Like, if you actually meet Muslims, most of them are pretty based, right?
They're chill.
They're chill.
They're not throwing homosexuals off rooftops.
Yeah, I don't know.
Okay, I'm probably being generous, but whatever.
Let's keep D-Live happy, right?
No, no, I know what you're saying.
I know I met a lot of Muslims that seem pretty base, but at the same time, I've met a lot of Muslims that the more you get to know, the more they are hiding their true opinions.
Yeah, there is that thing called Takiya.
But the bigger issue, in my opinion, is the combination of church and state in a theocracy.
Because then, see, when Aquinas is writing about how we ought to live our lives that none of us live up to, he's talking about the ideal that we can aspire to.
But in Europe, we always had a separation of powers.
We had the Pope worrying about people's souls, and we had the king worrying about keeping the trains running on time.
And, you know, then we got into like 200 years of religious wars because a horny priest consulted with the devil in his dreams to split the church.
And to be fair, the church was kind of being a dickhead at the time.
And we kind of came away.
It's like, all right, all right, back to separation.
Right?
Freedom of conscience.
You can have any religion you want as long as it's Christianity.
And then that got formalized with the United States, which was founded by extreme radicals and then a Christian bent.
Same thing in Canada.
It's like we don't.
We want a godly people, but we don't want cops deciding what godly is.
Right?
Like, let the scholars argue about that stuff.
Keep the guns away from them.
Whereas yeah, with Islam, it's like guns and scholars united.
Which winds up, like, the thing is, nobody lives up to the moral standards.
And so you can't throw everybody off the rooftop, so it winds up you target four or five major, like, not even major necessarily, right?
Like.
Examples, but make examples of people.
Yeah, you make examples of people.
But that actually serves to cover up the immorality of the people, making examples of them.
Yeah.
It's and this is kind of the problem we're running into with the Christian.
Right.
This is me being a part of this community, okay?
Living through this.
That the dissident right in its embrace of Christianity has become very morally performative.
it's about embracing the the conspicuous aspects of the religion and so on the one hand it's like yeah what i'm basically saying is becoming counter-culture which is always just performative like you won't do what you tell me Yeah, exactly, which is not the core of spirituality, morality.
Yeah.
It's an outfit.
Right?
It's not putting on the outfit that makes you holy.
It's, you know, developing the inner self so it becomes the thing.
It's bizarre to think that Christianity has become counterculture.
Jeez.
Especially growing up in a very Christian household in a very nominally Christian area.
And just thinking this is the way it is always going to be.
It's funny, I grew up atheist because, well, I grew up in the Bible Belt here in Alberta.
You know, another, you grew up on the East Coast, I grew up here.
Yeah.
Nominally Christian, but again, performative Christianity.
i'm holier than thou because i go to church and so i saw the it's like you know you talk the talk but you ain't walking the walk yep You ain't being a very kind, charitable, or just person.
Yeah, I've been thinking about how much I want to talk to my old pastor, who, as a punk kid and atheist philosopher, get into philosophy.
He was able to stump me here and there.
Yeah.
And anyway, I've been thinking about him recently.
I am going to reach out to him and talk to him again.
Do it.
Yeah, I actually saw a video of him that my brother sent me a little while ago talking to his congregation and basically just saying like in more careful diplomatic terms, but basically saying that this is not about a virus.
This is about taking your rights away.
Yeah.
So my, my issues with the Christian right are, it's twofold.
Number one, it's too exclusive of a vision.
Right?
Like the Christian nationalist movement, like just about everybody's excluded from that, right?
Everybody, I like I am nowhere near good enough of a Christian to be welcome in those circles.
Well, I don't know about that.
No, well, I'm not punk enough for those circles.
Okay, if you say so.
Right?
It's like, I might have the leather pants, but I don't have enough piercings.
Yeah.
I'm a flawed man, so I'm not.
And I'm specifically talking about the performative political Christians.
Not the actual Christians, right?
We're all beaten and bruised in real Christianity.
But as a political movement, to try and turn moral development into a political movement, you naturally get something exclusive, and the characters that wind up leading it are living in trailer parks and sleeping with their wife's father's wife, which is literally what happened with one group of them.
Yep.
Remember that story, maybe?
And that's actually the other side of it.
So first, it's too damn exclusive because you're basically kicking every like 90% of society gets kicked out of your movement for not being holy enough.
And at the same time, this emphasis on performative morality covers up real flaws, right?
People need room to make errors.
If, like, if you lock somebody in a straitjacket, like, yeah, like, I mean, this is a feminist solution for rape.
Just castrate all men and there'll be no more rape.
That's not a moral improvement in society.
You just castrated all the men.
Yeah.
Like, if we, if we, I don't know, if we cut off everybody's hands, there'd be no more fist fights.
Yeah.
It doesn't mean that people are less evil than they used to be.
A lot more kicking, though.
Kickboxing.
A lot more kickboxing.
Kickstumping.
I mean, that's like Big Brother 1984.
We're going to force you to be moral.
Right?
We've decided what moral is.
We're going to enforce it.
No, people need.
Like, there's a lot of immoral things that should not be illegal.
Yeah.
Like, maybe swearing in public is immoral, right?
Yeah.
I'd say putting a soapbox on downtown and just swearing for 20 minutes.
That's an immoral thing to do, but do we necessarily want laws repressing that sort of behavior?
I mean, if the guy keeps doing it, then maybe.
So, yeah, the...
The liberal society we used to have, I think, is a good one.
Let's see.
Well, what is this?
Amandi says, the funniest thing is when feminists demand the institution of marriage because of all the babies.
There was this really funny meme.
Yeah.
Of like a woman.
Basically, it's a feminist saying, you know, when men should have an obligation, and somebody should replied, so you want traditional marriage, is what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because she literally described traditional marriage.
Yeah, the obligation to raise the child.
Yeah.
yeah like that meme that said uh if women are forced to host a a baby in their body then men should be forced to host the baby in their home type thing yeah yeah that was it yeah it's called marriage yeah Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, and the reply is yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Good lord, that's what I want.
so okay I know I've been talking a lot and that's this is where I think you've got some stuff to say So the point of all of this is, like, we've gone off into the weeds with this Christian nationalism, with the...
Well, I don't even know what it is, Christian nationalism.
No, like the whole right-wing.
There's other words for it that I'm not going to say because I like to still be on D Live, right?
Okay.
You know what I'm talking about.
Like the.
The W word?
Nationalism?
Oh, I was thinking about one that started with an N or possibly an F.
But yeah, that one too.
Okay.
Right?
Oh, yeah.
Because we've been looking at democracy as if democracy failed.
Yeah.
The mold Buggian theory.
Yeah.
That Cthulhu always swims left.
And that this was inevitable.
It was inevitable that the institutions would be co-opted, that power-seeking agents and whatnot.
Yeah.
And yet, anytime you start digging in to where these toxic ideas came from, right?
Like the Black Lives Matter.
Where did that come from?
Marxists.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, like, four or five guys came up with a theory.
Yeah.
Marcuse himself.
Marcuse literally laid out.
Yeah.
The number one problem, the greatest evil of democracy and capitalism is it's made the working classes so comfy in their enslavement that they won't rebel for us anymore.
But we've got this developing middle class with the African American, the blacks.
I'm just going to call them the blacks.
Fuck the PC language, the blacks in America.
Yeah.
And with the civil rights era, and he was writing in the civil rights era.
Yeah.
His great fear was that they would achieve middle class prosperity.
Yeah.
And then they would be tricked into eternal slavery to the demiurge.
Yeah, right?
Because I mean, in Marxist theory, right, you've got the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, the two classes.
The dialectic.
And in advanced society, you have the middle class, right?
Generally speaking, the stronger the middle class, the better the nation, right?
Because then you've got a group of people that they don't have a lot of political sway on their own, but as a class, they have a ton of political sway, right?
I'd also point out that a strong middle class means healthy bodies to fill your army.
It means great taxes to fill your coffers.
It's one of those win-win scenarios where the ruling class wins, the proletariat wins.
It's like everybody wins with the middle class.
The only downside is a lot of people watch sports ball.
So the neo-Marxists come in with the third class.
It's not really a third class because you can't do that with a alien dialectic.
You need the didactic tooth to one or the other.
Create a third.
Right?
So the third class, if you want to call it that, is the petite bourgeoisie.
Right?
And basically, in Marxist theory, the petite bourgeoisie have delusions of grandeur that they will become bourgeoisie.
And that's a little bit of truth to that, right?
I mean, if you have $10 million in your bank account, you're still nobody.
Right?
You don't have $10 billion.
If you got $10 billion, you're starting to become somebody.
No, you got to worry at that point.
You don't want $10 million, you can still skate on through.
You got $10 billion.
There's people gunning for you.
But basically, the neo-Marxists squarely looked at the middle class as a giant problem because they are the little people.
They're the people that go along with the oppression.
Yeah.
Actually, we should.
Yeah, I'm really just repeating what James Lindsay had said.
Yep.
But he says it in an eight-hour-long block.
So there is some utility in me just stealing from him.
I friggin' love James Lindsay.
Oh, he's fantastic.
Especially because I love philosophy.
I have my philosophy degree.
And James Lindsay hates philosophers for all the same reasons I do.
See, I'm just Italian and we're naturally talented at philosophy.
There you go.
I maintain that there's no such thing as Italian philosophers.
It's just Italian wise guys.
Yep, exactly.
Hey, forget about it.
But, uh...
is the core of neo-marxism it is a it is a religious faith Okay, like this is a statement of faith more profound than anything Gerdell ever created in his ontological proof of God.
it's a statement of faith that there is a perennial religion as in there's a a primordial yeah not not not like when i if we talk about primordial religion right Like we see chimpanzees showing reverence to a waterfall, for example.
And we think about primitive man looking up at the sky and saying, there's something bigger than me.
What is this universe?
How do I fit into it?
No, no.
That's not what.
We believe in a becoming man, but a pre-existent God.
That there's this force in the universe that it created things like beauty and reason.
And us mere monkeys are starting to discover these things and learn more about them.
But that thing that made reason and math and beauty and goodness and heroism, like humans didn't invent heroism.
We cannot create our own values.
We can only try and understand values better.
That's us, right?
We're the becoming species with the pre-existent God.
The Marxists believe in the primordial religion that was perfect got corrupted by institutions, by all of that.
But they believe in a God that's becoming.
But there was no pre-existent God.
We make up our own values.
And to achieve the Garden of Eden, the Garden of Eden isn't where we came from.
It's where we're going.
And to achieve that, we need to tear down all of these artificial barriers.
Like the thinking that there's a difference between the sexes.
That's one of the barriers that needs to be destroyed.
The difference between the upper and lower classes.
I don't know if there's a difference between people born into the upper class and born into the lower class.
Right?
It might just be circumstance of birth.
However, there's a difference in responsibility.
A person that's born into wealth, it is their duty to maintain their community.
And the upper classes are certainly not performing that duty right now.
No.
But it seems to be something that is always there.
You have upper classes and the lower classes in every society.
And, okay, it's not ideal.
Well, how can we make things better?
Step by step, how do we make things better?
No, the Marxist says we destroy all the classes, and then we're going to find Eden on the other side.
Yep.
That's their plan.
If you ask.
Yeah, we were just listening to the same podcast by Lindsay earlier today.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's really interesting that I didn't listen to.
Actually, I just listened to the whole thing, though.
He was listening before I came here.
Yeah, I'm about halfway through myself.
He's long, man.
He's long.
Oh yeah, two hour long.
Oh, this is the fourth part.
Fourth part, yes.
And this is what, his third or fourth eight-hour series on Marcuse.
Yeah.
Ergo, I'm not stealing his thunder.
I'm sharing his ideas in bite-sized form.
Yeah, the nice thing he was talking about was the mass adoptions of his ideas and how he was like creating clownish.
Basically, the people that know what the fuck they're talking about are like clownishly aping his ideas.
But he was kind of cool with it.
Because the whole point is to tear everything down.
right like okay one of the so anyway he was talking about James Lindsay was talking with the irony of how we came up with the word clown world which is interesting enough all right description of how every institution seems to be run by clowns Like clowns, yeah.
So that was actually Marcuse's intention.
Yeah.
yeah yeah basically in that great dialogue or the great discourse he's giving there is talking about how we live in the marcusian world and it is by design clown world because the goal see one of the one of the narratives um
I know that Dostoevsky might have been the first one, the Grand Inquisitor, but there's this narrative story that goes, somebody takes the words of Christ and abuses them to create a tyranny, and so Christ comes back and says, what are you doing?
And so if you looked, and that's our narrative, that you can't just take, say, 1984 by Orwell.
This is something Ben Shapiro would do.
He'll take 1984 and say, Ergo, neoconservatism.
No, Orwell was not a fan.
No, no, no.
Yeah, he was just, this is a vision of a terrible future.
Yes.
Learn from it.
And it does not mean that Ben Shapiro's terrible future is the good one.
There are so many people that will twist the words to achieve their ends.
And that's such a, and we hate that.
Our people, people of God on the left and the right, the people that acknowledge that we're imperfect and we're trying to get better.
We hate when the source is twisted into something it wasn't to support the current agenda.
Marcuse has no problem with this.
Because Marcuse's agenda is literally destroy every single institution by whatever means necessary.
And so even if a whole bunch of absolute morons are, you know what?
I'll make one up.
This is mostly made up.
Say like trans species.
Right?
We've seen some of the crazy furries are transpecies, right?
And if you'd gone to Marcuse back in the 60s and told me, he's like, no, that's so stupid, that'll never happen.
He wouldn't be upset by it.
Because even though he doesn't believe in transpecies, as long as it disrupts and destroys the establishment, that's all that matters.
And so people misinterpreting his words is fantastic for him.
Yeah.
Because it breaks everything.
And once everything's broken, we get to go to heaven.
Yeah, pretty much.
That literally is the neo-Marxist agenda.
And just to, you know, I touched on it, I want to finish this.
I want to really emphasize this.
That Black Lives Matter, it's not about improving the lives of black people, right?
Like, their great saint is, you know, a criminal and a drug addict and whatever.
Like, it's, black people should be deeply embarrassed that this guy is being held up as an avatar for them.
Yeah.
He's not an avatar for black people.
He's an embarrassment.
Carla Homoka is not an avatar for white people.
She's an embarrassment to white people.
But no, this is exactly Marcuse's agenda.
Speaking of black people.
Instead of letting the blacks achieve the middle class, we're going to do everything possible to keep them impoverished and embittered because if they grow wealthy and happy and equal participants in North American society, well, shit, we'll never have our revolution.
And the demiurge will rule us all and we're all slaves.
We're all slaves with our nice cars and our freedom of speech and our literacy in our health care system.
Just absolute, abject slaves to tyranny.
So we gotta keep people impoverished.
We gotta keep them on drug culture, rap culture, whatever.
We got to keep them broken and depraved and resentful and angry so that we can achieve true liberation.
Burn down all the institutions and we'll finally be rich.
Reminds me of being in university.
I think I was in university during the time of peak feminism.
Yep, we both were.
And people still love rap music.
And I remember talking to a friend of mine about it.
He's like, because I never really listened to rap music, I always hated it.
Oh, I did.
I'd be like, well, how come we're constantly being lectured about misogyny and then one thing I cannot lie?
Actually, that's not bad.
That's not that bad.
No, no.
That's not good.
We haven't bombarded that.
But I stopped listening to classical music.
Yeah, and we were bombarded by, you know, gangster rap, pure misogyny.
And I brought that up, and he was like, well, because that's ironic.
Oh, it's ironic.
He thought it was ironic.
Isn't that ironic?
Ironic, yeah.
He thought that was ironic.
It's like, no, nobody.
People just listen to this, ironically, they don't actually think this.
Like, oh, really?
You know, I hate to quote common filth because that guy is exactly what I'm talking about.
A self-righteous prig that stabs other people in the back and has no charity in his soul.
Yeah.
But he was right when he said what starts off as irony becomes sincerity.
And that's, again, this is Marcuse.
You know, get the feminists listening to the rap music and eventually embracing.
Like, if you listen to enough rap music as a woman, you are going to be seeking out the sort of men.
Like, you've identified the man singing the song as Alpha.
And so you're going to seek out the sort of man that brags about beating his wife or beating his girlfriends or whatever bullshit.
And you get into this complete spiral of self-destruction from the whole thing, which is Marc Hughes' goal.
Because a happy marriage would enslave you to the demiurge.
And we want to make sure women are completely miserable and hating men so that we can have freedom between the sexes.
And we don't want all the men going MGTOW and hating women.
Yeah.
And I think the meme war has extremely been successful on the whole.
Just thinking about the Chad meme, the Chad face that says yes.
Very small sentences.
Because when you're confronted with nonsense, usually the correct thing to do is just ignore it, right?
Remember we're talking a little while ago about Cool Man in PUA?
The pickup artists?
Cool Man?
Yeah, if someone's trying to be the alphabet male of the group, the easiest way to out-alpha them is to be cooler than them.
Well, you just.
Someone's spouting off and trying to tear you down.
You just look at them and say, cool man, and then turn away.
Right?
That is a total Chad move.
Cool man, whatever.
Yep.
Yeah.
So we got a bunch of great comments here.
Yeah.
Alright.
First of all, Jun Ki donated an ice cream.
Thank you very much.
Whiskey does not pay for itself, guys.
Yeah.
Just thinking back to one of the other live streams we did where I forget if I said, how do you deal with people that basically aren't rational?
Like, yeah, just say you're not a serious person.
Yeah.
Right?
It's basically a more academic way of saying, cool man.
And turning the other cheek.
Well, and the meme memes.
I don't know.
Jokes are founded in reality of some degree.
I don't know.
The meme war is a really interesting phenomenon.
I think I might want to think about it more before I.
Oh, I'm very interested in the philosophy of humor.
I think humor is extremely powerful.
Keeping a sense of humor is probably the best thing you can do.
No matter what happens, keep your sense of humor.
The Pope is now saying that getting the vax is an act of love.
Oh, wow.
Not an act of fear?
I mean, like, again, he's not sitting in the seat right now.
Although he did sit in the seat and say something.
Yeah.
Whatever.
I'm a neo-Catholic, right?
I'm a very heterodox.
I'm not a heretical Catholic, but I'm an extremely heterodox Catholic.
So, I tend to ignore what the Pope says because it really screws with my faith.
This also.
I'm sorry, until we get a Pope that isn't a complete.
Could we just have a Pope that's sleeping with 16-year-old boys for fuck's sake?
I mean, Jesus Christ, you know?
Like, Aristotle did that, and he was a cool dude.
Like, I would really just.
Like, just give me a Pope that likes doing blow and 16-year-old boys running around.
But aside from that, he's Orthodox, right?
Can we just have one of those, please?
Whatever.
I'm not.
Fuck the Pope.
Excommunicate me, I dare you.
You know.
Oh, boy.
A recreation of the SNCC, the civil rights movement.
Oh, talking about.
Isn't it funny how all these evil organizations are also great at making you a lot of money if you're the one running it?
Yeah, it's weird.
Isn't it funny how all these social revolutions.
It's like Bernie Sanders decrying millionaires until he became one and now he decries billionaires.
Yep.
Man, I saw.
question you make him i would i want him to make a billion dollars so then he can start decrying trillionaires Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I feel bad for the people that, like I saw Reddit posts from people.
It's like, man, I was late with my rent because I supported Bernie Sanders and then he completely sold out for the Democrat Party.
Yeah.
And that's huge, too, right?
Like, think about it if Rand Paul just sold out.
because Rand Paul is the right-wing equivalent right you know Yuki sorry Yuki just pointed out yeah there was there was a papal bull yeah saying that the Latin mass was valid And guess what?
The Catholic Church doesn't get to change its mind.
That's what Papal infallibility is all about.
That the Pope said something 1,200 years ago, it's still true today.
That God doesn't change his mind about things.
And so there's a papal bull saying the Latin Mass is valid.
And the current guy pretending to be Pope now says it's not valid.
So, listen, I'm not a good Catholic, right?
I'm not a priest.
I'm just a really shitty paladin when you get right down to it.
So, I'm not getting involved in this fight, right?
I'm just, this is what I'm seeing.
And I got no grounds to criticize anybody else of a different religion if they're being morally decent people.
Right?
And so, I got no interest in the Catholic supremacy, the I think the Catholic Church is on the decline.
I think the Orthodox Church is the go-to church these days.
For all the wrong reasons.
People are going to the Orthochurch because they want the worldly authority.
That's what I was saying to you about alchemy.
Right?
It's so funny listening to Lindsay because he's always seeing the dark alchemists.
And he was literally right before he came over.
I was listening to the part of the podcast where he's talking about trying to turn the base metals into something higher.
Which is what Mark Hughes is, like, trying to turn rebellion and incompetence and poverty into bliss.
Yeah.
That's dark alchemy.
But I was listening to this.
I'm like, no, dude, dude, don't.
Real alchemy is turning a whole bunch of naked apes running around masturbating half the time and like leaking all of these gross oils out of them into a heroic story.
That's alchemy.
That's light alchemy.
That's true alchemy.
Is that despite our flawed natures, we are heroic and beautiful.
Especially you guys in the audience.
That's light alchemy.
That's true alchemy.
And it's funny, because I'm starting to pick up on where I really are.
Oil and vinegar.
I don't think he'd like me very much.
I like him, but I'm starting to pick up on where we disagree on things.
I'm enjoying it.
Yeah.
But no, there is light alchemy.
So anybody that's doing good alchemy, that's my brother.
Let's see.
The Pope is now even wears the triangle on his robe boldly.
Oh, what's this triangle?
Turner Hooch points out it could be the Trinity.
He's being really nice when he says that.
Friendly says math was invented by humans also.
Not invented, discovered.
The math is this infinite sea, and we need some sort of heuristic to look at it.
And so we invent different methodologies to look at it.
But we start discovering we can't decide what math is.
In fact, there's math has come up.
Like, part of the reason I came to the faith was Gödel's incompleteness theorem.
That math denies scrutiny.
It does not give us the certitude that we're looking for.
That there's always a mystery to things, and that mystery is God.
So, Gerdell, you know, after his incompleteness theorem, went on to do an ontological proof of God's existence.
Have I shown you that video on the halting problem?
I don't think so.
Okay, I might show it to you afterwards.
Guys, there's a video on YouTube about the halting problem, and you'll recognize on a dramatic stage.
Yeah.
It's got a red curtain when you Google the video.
And the halting problem is mind-blowing.
Because humans can tell when a program is halted.
But it's mathematically impossible to do that.
Right?
And that's not making any sense to you.
It might not make it.
Watch that video.
And it's absolutely mind-blowing.
If you really grok what's going on there, that there's a mysterious, there's a little spark in reality.
You know, I was saying to Turner and Hooch, my issue with the.
One of my big issues with Freemasonry, which is one of the few things the Catholic Church is explicitly opposed to.
They're not a fan of tarot cards.
Right?
Yeah.
But Freemasonry, Ouija boards, get the fuck away from that shit.
Right?
There's lots of stuff you have.
Stay away from the femme boys.
But no, no.
Ouija boards, stay the hell away from that.
Freemasonry, stay the hell away from that.
And the one thing that jumps out to me about Freemasonry is Freemasonry almost understands Gerdel's incompleteness theorem.
That there's always this little spark of the divine that we cannot account for.
But then they try and account for it anyway.
And so they take the twin towers of what are they?
Boaz and Jakeem, I think.
And they have this perfect chessboard, temple at the center, and the twin towers.
And they're different.
They are grossly different at the top.
Because even though we've got the dialectic of sun and moon, they're not the same thing.
We've got man and woman, but they're not chiral reflections of one another.
They're complementary reflections of one another.
And there's that little spark of life being created.
You cannot put life into a grid.
There's a divine spark in there.
Am I making any sense or am I just an alchemist?
I don't know.
Remember, I was just thinking about the divine spark and that show that I loved.
That's so bad.
I love it.
Friends?
No, supernatural.
It's a good show, man.
It is, yeah.
Literally, the show is about a couple of brothers looking for their father.
Yeah.
Like, they honestly.
The fact that the left wing got so infatuated with that show just shows the paucity of patriarchy in the left wing.
That.
Hell, even.
It's like the good brother is the one you think is bad.
He even smokes.
First time you see him on screen, he has a pepperette hanging out of his mouth.
Yeah.
And he always has a Zippo on him.
Do you remember Leviathan that season or they're fighting Leviathan?
Ah, refresh me.
It's been a decade.
It was.
They had that freaking annoying feminist character that's terrible, but they managed to make a good season anyway.
Oh, I stopped watching it at that point.
It got good.
It actually got good.
was surprised because it started off awful right with like the they went to Oz And that was a shitty episode.
Yeah, I stopped before that.
I hated that feminist character.
Yeah, she's terrible, but and but if you abstract from it, it was a really interesting story because Leviathan came and Leviathan was almost well They they wanted to fatten up America by giving them basically swill and uh dumbing them down to eat them god damn it, that's a good show.
Yeah, to eat them, but there were some humans that had the divine spark.
There was something special about them because Leviathan didn't have the spark they could only control through fear and manipulation.
So, I mean, the dumb feminist.
They can't inspire.
They can't inspire, yeah.
And so anyway, the dumb feminist was one of the people that had the divine spark.
So they could always, they tried to control her, but they couldn't eat her.
And yeah, wouldn't it, I think if they ate you, they could take your knowledge.
But at the same time, the people with the divine spark could create new knowledge so that they'd keep them as pets as far as they could.
Anyway, it's a bit of a diversion, but.
It's actually a perfect metacor for Marcuse.
Yeah.
Marcuse, like, the neo-Marxists cannot create.
They can foment conflict.
Conflict between men and women, conflict between whites and blacks, conflict between the vaxed and unvaxed.
Which is don't fall for it, man.
Like, guys, we gotta stand for what's right, but we can't be bullies.
We can't fall for the false dialectic.
Be polite, but not politically correct, right?
Yes.
I remember talking to a friend of mine about political correctness back when, back before it became obvious that political correctness is just Bolshevik bullshit.
And they were describing politeness, and I was like, you're describing politeness.
Politeness is great.
Politeness is how you form a civil society.
That's not political correctness.
You can't mandate it either.
One of my favorites.
Politeness is just a style, right?
It's a style of speaking.
One of my favorite episodes of Penn and Tiller's Bullshit was they had this lady going around putting these little cutesy signs of a cow taking a shit saying no bullshit, no rudeness allowed.
And she went to a friend of hers, a hairdresser's, and the lady running the hairdressing salon looked at it and said, oh shit.
yeah which and then cut the pen and tell her And Penn explained, like, listen, lady, what she is saying by swearing at you in a comedic manner is, don't censor my freedom of speech.
Like, I respect you, I'll be polite to you, but fuck off with trying to control my speech.
And yeah, you cannot enforce politeness any more than you can force racial equity.
No, you can treat other people well.
Yeah, and political correctness is not politeness.
It's politeness.
It's censorship under the guise of politeness.
Right.
That's exactly what it is.
And politeness is very valuable in our society.
And I think that is the problem.
Oh, politeness is a great idea.
I think that's maybe the problem with a lot of people on the right is that they're so fucking tired of bullshit, they don't want to be polite.
Which is very understandable.
Do you know Joker says the N-word?
No.
It's this.
You need to explain it.
I've been trying to figure it out, actually.
So my old man Arrini might not understand the kids with their means.
But it was a meme that came out after the Joker movie where they took the Joker building up to saying the N-word because it's like the one thing you're not allowed to say.
And yet they put in the word of the Joker who is a chaotic evil villain.
So of course a chaotic evil villain would say the N-word because he's chaotic evil and that's like the one extremely strong moral law.
In fact the joker saying the n-word ought to reinforce that it's really bad to say the n-word and yet not even the joker can say the n-word.
Right?
It's an example of this is this is not about decency.
It's not about morality.
It's not about politeness.
It is about arbitrary censorship, and one of the things Marcuse was pointing, or Lindsay was pointing out, is that when you define, when you are defined by your demographic group, you are queer, you are black, you are lower income, you are whatever.
When that is, when each group has their individual voice, you are not the one that determines your own voice, and so, when you go to speak, you are only allowed to say what Herbert Marcuse says.
You're allowed to say he's already determined your voice for you.
If you're black, this is the voice of black liberation.
If you're queer, this is the voice of queer liberation.
And if you, if you are a, if you're a homosexual, that supports the People's Party OF Canada, that's false consciousness that's, oh no, that's not your true opinion.
Let me, Herbert Marcuse, tell you what your true opinion is.
Yeah, and that that's that's the core of the political correctness is just a legislative form of dictating your opinion based upon your apparent demographic, based upon your race.
Yeah whatever, we're going to tell you what your opinion is based on your skin color.
Yeah, i'm thinking about individuality.
These days like uh, there's some good criticism from the out-right about uh atomistic individuality, but at the same time like, the marxists talk about that too.
Right, and I think the thing is that is lost is individuality.
Is, you know, the right to make up your own mind, the right to be a majority of one, to be the the, the right person in the crowd, the mad crowd, versus what?
Marxism doesn't really have an idea of individual individual?
You have.
No, it needs to crush it, because if you have individuality, then the dialectic is not complete.
Well yeah well, I was going to say that, if you look, if you think of, like intersectionalism right, which is very you know it's based on this kind of Marxist, Hegelian dialectic is like the individual is defined top-down through social sources.
So, like you are the intersection of you know your, your race, your creed, your religion, all these things make up you that there is no individual.
There is only the unique amalgamation of identities.
There is no unique identity.
Have you ever read the dystopian novel We?
No, maybe sounds familiar.
So this one's.
This is a fairly poorly known one and it was written in Russian and of course Russian does not translate to English very well, but it's written in the 1910s, I think 1920s, and it was about a society where everybody lived in glass houses, they all wore the exact same jumpsuits.
They, I think they had numbers instead of names.
Yeah, and it was we the the, the we.
Yeah, and you were not allowed to have an individual identity.
Yeah And, by the way, Friendly, thank you very much.
Comments on the Bosch painting.
The next painting I want to get is the triumph of death.
And I've actually been semi-inspired to maybe write a novel about that.
Yeah, hey guys, if you pray for me, you know, pray that I find a good paying job right now.
Because I want to.
I don't know.
I'm still doing these live streams, right?
But I want to indulge more in the creativity.
Yeah.
I'm sick of.
I feel like I fought.
I don't know.
I feel like I picked fights, right?
I was just trying to speak the truth for years, but it's like so many people want to pick a fight with you.
It's like, I just want to drink whiskey and wear my fedora, you know?
So much hostility out there.
Anyway, y'all were saying.
Oh.
Just about how the individual and Marxist theory is an intersection of different identities, right?
So there is no real individual.
That is their foundational assumption.
Yeah.
that and it's interesting like this is a complete inversion of the ancient idea of dialectic where everyone so i would like the idea of e pluribus unum for many one like that is very much in keeping with the the western uh ideology It's different, but we all worship God.
Yeah, and dialectic, the Socratic dialectic is like learning to set aside your individual biases so you can come together as one.
Right, that dialectic is that we are all the same, and it's only artificial constructs of the demiurge that separate us.
I don't know about that formulation, but I think it's you keep talking.
You fill the audio, man.
You're on the hot seats.
Well, that was it.
That was my whole thing.
Keep going, you can talk.
Yeah.
So anyway, the whole idea, the atomistic individual is very much prevalent on the right as well as the Marxist left.
And I think there's a lot of Marxist ideas infiltrating the right.
Even with Davis here, he likes to talk about advanced capitalism, which is very much a Marxist phrase.
It's interesting how much language even the alt-right has adopted from Marxism.
But anyway, believe it or not, today Davis kind of changed the conversational topic at the last minute.
I thought we were going to talk about the academic agent asking who are the elites.
And in his talk in his last video, I actually was hoping he would update it because I think he's going to go where I'm going.
Whereas the elites are the Marxists.
You're talking shit about me, aren't you?
I am, yeah.
I definitely am.
That's what happens when you leave the room.
But yeah, he was saying, like, you've got the mold buggy in Caucasus Cathedral, which is basically the academia plus the media.
That's one kind of conspiracy theory of who the elites are.
Another one being the tiny hat people, which he won't talk about.
Another one being the elites don't really exist.
They're just the what is it?
The incompetent.
I don't have it in front of me.
Oh, incompetence, yeah.
Incom.
Yeah, it was basically.
Like, Trudeau's pretty incompetent.
Oh, Tool is pretty incompetent.
Or are they willfully?
Yeah.
The idea that the evil is not really willful, it's just emergent behavior.
Yeah.
Yeah, and forgetting all the rest, there was a couple different categories.
But anyway, it struck me as like, I mean, I think he was going to come up with a univide theory of who the elite are.
Just making sure the battery's not dying.
Got all dim.
Oh, no, we're still good.
And yeah, it's clearly to me that, I mean, I feel like I'm always beating a dead horse.
Like, just look at Marxism and you'll find out who the elite are, why things are fucked up, why we live in Clown World.
It's a very small number of individuals.
Like, you can.
You know that.
If you could go back in time and kill baby Hitler, would you do it?
Yeah.
but he was technically innocent as a honest to god if we you know i have a feeling like me completing this thought experiment is the sort of thing that facebook moderators would use to kick me off the platform again Right?
But, like, that.
Like, there's a list of about 12 people that if you could get in a time machine and I don't know, buy them a chocolate candy so they don't hate reality or something.
There's like a dozen people that if you excise them from the canon, no, the world wouldn't be this fucked up.
It really is just a small number of.
Liberal democracy was working.
Yeah.
It was working, goddammit.
And yeah, liberal democracy allows people to be immoral.
you can't be a moral you can't be moral either yeah one of the uh i really love james lindsey I think he is the academic that has switched on the most, even more so than Peterson, even though Peterson's a far better communicator.
Peterson's a therapist.
Yeah, he's coming from a different perspective too, right?
Yeah, he's coming from the psychological perspective, which is valuable, but...
And it's funny, I love...
How weird is it?
It's a couple of liberals saving us from the radical left.
Well, that's actually not weird at all, really.
I mean, we were talking about the alt-right.
The whole time I've known you, I've not been a monarchist.
I've not been.
I've liked the ideas, the strange ideas that are anti-liberal that Marks, that the alt-right have introduced, like RK theory, which really throws a wrench to liberal theory.
So, I mean, I would say that the core of our friendship was me always being a classical liberal and you being alt-right.
And that's a good conversation to have.
I'm a.
You saw the score I got.
I'm a paladin.
Yeah.
I'm a Kazi guy.
I want to fight in holy wars, right?
And the current establishment we have is the only holy war is against the family and against the church and against the small business.
Right?
So I've just been bouncing ideas around, basically.
Waiting for something to do.
Yeah, and waiting for something to stick in terms of who, I think it's a great question.
Who is the enemy, right?
Because we know there's a lot of things that are being imposed upon us, but who's doing this?
Erdo's clearly not his own man.
It's Gnosticism.
Yeah, Biden's not his own man.
Is Xi Jinping his own man?
I'm not quite sure.
right?
This is like, what, where is there a major world leader who is their own man?
How familiar are you with Gnosticism?
I know about it.
You know, I might, you know, I'm gonna put a pin in it.
I wanna, maybe I should do a video on Gnosticism.
Because this is ultimately, when James Lindsay says it's alchemy, he actually means Gnosticism.
Okay.
Right?
And he would, if he were here, would say, yeah, I say Gnosticism.
What's your point, asshole?
Yeah.
And it's like that, which actually proves my point.
I think I might do a video on Gnosticism and really dig into the issue with Gnosticism, the issue with fighting the Demiurge.
The Gnostics are the original conspiracy theorists.
Yeah.
That it does not matter how much you prove to them there's no conspiracy, they're still convinced it's a conspiracy.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's interesting.
You talk trash about Gnosticism.
Because my introduction, I don't know a lot about it, but I know the Gnostic Christians were weird and ridiculous.
Other than that, I love Plato because I think that his actual teachings are Gnostic.
He doesn't write down anything that he actually believes.
Everything is an exercise.
Well, you know what, if I do this, I'll, this might be the next thing I should be doing.
Because I've got some room for empathy for Gnosticism as well.
I think...
I wonder if there's a good and a bad Gnosticism too.
I don't know why you're so impassioned about defending alchemy, but good and bad, I'm open to it.
When I hear the word Gnostic, I've heard different people talking it in a negative light, and it always doesn't really make sense to me, because when I think of Gnosticism, I think of the Platonic idea that knowledge cannot be transmitted through communication.
However, communication is extremely important, and you can get to the an approximation of the truth through communication, but you can never get there.
I think what I'm getting at is you know I've talked about the bicameral mind before and the psychological split of left and right that we have which is the same as the split between left brain and right brain It's also the same as the split between I want to just interject.
That's another thing you bring up, which is, I wouldn't say it's necessarily antithetical to liberalism, but it throws a wrench in the works because liberalism definitely has the idea of the individual being a unified individual.
Oh, yeah, they're not.
There's two brains inside of you.
Learn to talk to the other one.
I think that it's...
I'm just going to be really tentative here.
The thing I'm calling Gnosticism, the Gnostic cult, which Marcuse is a part of, it's the, and actually this would be my criticism of the religious right as well.
That it's when one hemisphere of the brain is enslaved to the other.
Like, our brain was purposefully, naturally, evolved to have two distinct hemispheres.
the corpus callosum unites but they're still distinct and if you if you try and explain the world through left brain through the rational brain the meticulous brain uh you wind up with the patriarchal tyranny
But if you engage in the holistic thinking of the right brain indiscriminately, you wind up with the tyrannical mother, right?
That you can do everything you want except fly.
I won't let you fly, but I might let you sing, which is the What we're seeing from the radical left right now.
You got the freedom to masturbate, but if you try and have sex, we'll accuse you of rape.
Yeah.
Anyway, let's finish things off.
Let me just check the comments quickly.
Not answering that phlecrim.
Well, I'll say no.
That would be my answer.
No.
What's the question?
Well, I'll tell you after the stream.
Okay.
I love it that we're always self-centering, censoring.
I sent Davis earlier a meme, or not a meme, an advertisement from a consulting firm now that helps you self-censor.
Oh, that was a joke.
Is it?
I said, it's a joke.
I didn't look into it to verify it, but it made sense to me.
It's a very elaborate joke, but I'm convinced it's a joke.
I'm going to have to look into it because I didn't verify it, but I saw it and I was like, oh, yeah.
That must exist.
That must exist.
It was for East-Web influencers.
Can you imagine that doesn't exist, though?
I can't see how that doesn't exist.
Anyway, navigating the center of the current.
Close things off.
Anyway.
Because that's.
No, man, that's a 20-minute rabbit trail right there.
Close things off.
So, what the hell are we supposed to do about the encroaching dystopia?
I think the best answer is a return to a liberal democracy.
Oh, yeah, I think so too.
Though, I want to say.
And PPC.
We were at the PPC convention.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I would vote for them if they were available in my writing.
But anyway, yeah, a quote, another quote that see if I can recreate it.
It was: no revolution has ever been accomplished by a minority.
It's always a recalcitrant, vehemently stalwart minority.
They're trying to do lockdowns here in Alberta again.
And I committed myself already.
I said, listen, I played nice for the first one because I knew people were scared.
People didn't have all the information, etc.
I'm not doing another lockdown.
And all it takes.
Here's the thing.
So have you noticed they put security guards at all the festivals at all the grocery stores now?
Oh, I thought they've been doing that for a while, but.
About a year.
Before COVID, we did not have security guards at grocery stores.
Maybe not in all of them, but I've seen them before, before COVID.
Well, now I'm seeing them in the good neighborhoods, too.
Yeah.
The reason they put them there was because of COVID.
Yeah.
And one other thing that's going to be happening, right?
They're.
Sir, you're not wearing your mask.
You're not wearing your mask, sir.
Sir, you need to wear your mask.
Yeah.
There's somebody saying those words.
You need to talk to that person.
You need to break through the ideological possession in that person.
And I don't know.
Guys, practice your rhetoric.
Don't.
Don't go.
Don't you become ideologically possessed and go off half-cocked and sound all crazy and be screaming and yelling.
I don't know.
I think one of the effective ones would be: sir, if you were ordered to put Jews in a cattle car, would you do it?
What if you were ordered just to drive the train while somebody else put Jews in the cattle car?
Would you do that?
Yeah.
Sir, We lose our freedoms when we, the people, give them up.
And you've got a higher moral calling than just what your boss told you to do today.
You know, I said to the girl at the grocery store, you know, if half of you refuse to wear masks, well, there's a labor shortage right now.
They're having trouble finding people, aren't they?
Can they fire half of you?
You only need half.
Hell, you only need 30%.
Losing 30% of your workforce overnight.
Have some standards.
Guys, it's time to stand up.
Not violently.
Believe me, the thing they want, they are really hoping they can push somebody over the edge.
Oh, yeah.
And whatever September 11th, it seems like they're going to do another false flag.
Yep.
Yep.
Be very well aware of false flags.
Do not, yeah.
Complete.
The meek are those who have swords, but keep them sheathed.
Keep the swords sheathed, guys.
It's not yet the time.
But keeping your sword sheathed doesn't mean you keep your mouth shut, does it?
Yeah, I was talking to my aunt a little while ago, and she hadn't heard much about the boosters.
I would say she's the army third.
Great woman, but she doesn't pay much attention to politics.
And I was like, so you're prepared to get a shot for this every six months?
She's like, it's not going to go every six months, do you think?
Well, they're talking about it now.
Another shot.
Why not?
Why not another shot in six months?
You know, she didn't have a good answer, you know.
Oh, it's becoming evident that it is the permanent shot.
But could I just say, friend, you've got no flair for the dramatic.
I know, I leave that to you.
That was such a good point to end the live stream on.
Yeah, there you go.
I'll leave that to you.
Alright, guys.
Carpe futurum dene traditum.
And seriously, God bless Big L.
He is the size of a bison.
He is so large.
But not dramatic.
But he's not dramatic.
He's not Shakespearean.
Yeah, time is coming.
Figure out the right ways to stand up.
Right?
Don't.
No violence.
Guys, we're trying to free people from the Matrix.
We're not trying to hurt the people in the Matrix.
Be wise as serpents, but innocent as doves.
Yep.
And vote PPC, right?
Oh, I'd say so, for sure.
Especially after the fucking conservatives are bringing in mask mandates again.
Oh, God.
And yeah, conservatives are absolute garbage.
Terrible.
You see that picture, that prick O'Toole posted a picture of him and his family wearing face masks with the conservative logo on them on an empty airplane.
Oh, goodness.
The only person unmasked was the dog.
And there were dozens of comments.
I'll vote for the dog.
Yeah, it's PBC.
Guys, if you can vote PPC, vote PPC.
I think the time for strategic voting is over.
If it ever was one, I think that has been a big downfall.
That is how they get you.
I'm honestly, I don't think there's a PPC candidate in my writing.
There might be.
I haven't looked yet.
I don't think there is.
But honest to God, I don't know if I can vote conservative.
They support vaccine passports.
They support mask mandates.
They support carbon taxes.
What the fuck am I voting for?
You're voting for the very diluted, minor, lesser evil.
So it's, yeah, it's a slightly lower carbon tax.
Very, slightly lower.
Slightly less evil.
It's not the lesser evil.
It's a slightly lesser evil.
We're not going to castrate you.
We're only going to cut off one testicle.
Yeah.
And then if you fly straight and act right, we won't do the other one.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't think I can vote conservative.
Like, even strategically.
Yeah.
Like, yeah, it.
Well, that's what it is.
I'm not even convinced that O'Toole would be better than Trudeau.
Yeah, his platform is slightly less evil, but it's still evil.
Yeah.
Actually, talking about, you know, conversion or whatever, my sister-in-law, who was extremely liberal, I think the thing that endeared, probably endeared her most to me over this pandemic is I said, thank God the conservatives are in power in Alberta because I've seen who they are now.
Oh, Kenny.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Again, we're back to masks tomorrow.
Kenny promised to end them.
And now we're back to them.
Why?
That's a blessing.
Who the hell demanded this, Kenny?
That's a blessing that he was in power, so I know what the conservatives are.
The mask has been unveiled on the conservatives as well.
They are absolute scum.
Yeah.
you know what guys if you have a cop in your life you need to talk to that cop and explain to them that if they follow it's called the nuremberg defense I was just following orders.
That's no fucking excuse to commit, to do anything illegal.
They really nailed this into our heads back when I was in the military.
That if we are given an illegal order, we are required to disobey it.
Required.
That if the captain tells us to shoot a prisoner in the back of the head, you are required to disobey that and you will go to prison if you don't.
This Nuremberg defense really needs to be nailed into the heads of anybody with any iota of authority.
Security guard, police officer, whomever, you are subject to these exact same moral stringent guidelines that if you do something evil because your boss told you to, it is still evil and it is still criminal.
And you, sir, are derelict in your duty.
And you better hope the only punishment you have is on this side of the grave.
With that, I've got something not dramatic to say.
You gotta say it.
No, I don't.
All right, guys, thank you for tuning in.
I think it's a good live stream.
I'm gonna drink more of this gin.
You guys have a great evening.
This is Leo Irini and his stupid hat out.
Yeah, come on.
Export Selection
