	All right, well, tonight I've got a very special guest, Coach Finstock, the longtime host of Full House, is joining me.
	Coach and I discuss a number of topics in this podcast, including his experience in the alternative media, the anti-white global homo empire known as the United States of America, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the situation in Ukraine.
	All right, Coach Finstock, welcome to the program, sir.
	How are you this evening?
	Hey, John, I'm doing great.
	Thanks so much for having me on.
	I am missing out on the Oscars tonight to be on your fine program, so I hope you appreciate my sacrifice.
	I'm sure you're not missing much.
	Yeah, no, thanks, man.
	I appreciate it.
	I've been a big fan of Full House for a very long time.
	And you are, of course, the host of Full House.
	The website full-house.com.
	And I actually subscribe on the RSS feed, so I get it downloaded right to my phone every time you guys post a new show, which I've always found to be a very handy way to stay up to speed with all the great podcasts out there.
	And yours, I got to be honest, yours is one of the ones I look forward to every week.
	So you guys do a really good job.
	And we'll get into that as we proceed here.
	But just to get started, can you just tell us a little bit about yourself and how you got involved in the alternative media?
	Sure, absolutely.
	Happy to.
	I was thinking about how to make this as concise as possible, but in the aughts, I had, in hindsight, a Bush derangement syndrome, W. Bush derangement syndrome, which in hindsight is, you know, was probably justified.
	But I made the foolhardy assessment that because he was dumb and a warmonger and coarse, that therefore the Democrats were the good guys.
	And I was very quickly disabused of that and then switched back to sort of conservatism and the Republican Party as they being the good guys.
	They were the defenders of our rights and common sense in Washington.
	And I really had an epiphany around 2012 after Obama was re-elected.
	I really thought that that was going to be the election when white middle America, you know, all those upper Midwest states really woke up to realize what a sham and what a huckster he was.
	But they didn't, right?
	And then they passed DACA, which at the time, me still being a naive believer in law and justice and the Constitution, I thought really the Republicans were going to do something about that, which was, of course, the flagrantly unconstitutional decree granting illegal aliens essentially permanent resident status in the United States.
	And at that point, when the Republicans failed to do anything about something as egregious as that, I threw the papers up in the air and I was like, this system is just completely screwed.
	Both sides are working against the interests of normal white middle American citizens here.
	And then that was right around the time of the sort of bubbling and brewing of what then became the alt-right.
	I got on Twitter and started expressing myself and got exposed to people who were more radical and frankly more informed about the way the world works than me and sort of got sucked into that maelstrom of the dissident sphere.
	No regrets, right?
	I'd rather see the truth and suffer for it than live a beautiful lie.
	So, you know, essentially, once you come to the realization that the Republican Party is compromised and the Democrat Party is absolutely dead set on the destruction of everything that was once perhaps good and noble about this country, what are you left with?
	You're left with basically becoming a radical if you want to be honest with yourself and actually make a difference in this world.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Boy, a lot of people woke up, so to speak, in those late Obama years leading up to Trump's candidacy and then presidency.
	I had already sort of taken the red pill years before.
	I remember being in college and graduating, and that was right in 2008, like the fall of 2008 when Obama was running.
	And I saw right through him.
	Yeah, I was sort of like one of these anti-war progressives.
	Like I was very into like, yeah, right.
	I mean, looking back on it, it's like extremely cringe.
	But, you know, to be honest, though, back then, I mean, the people that I was reading and listening to and following were actually pretty principled.
	I mean, compared to what passes as liberal progressivism today.
	And what's even more ironic is a lot of them were Jews.
	I was a big Glenn Greenwald fan.
	And this goes back to when he was blogging on, I think it was, I think he had a blog called Unclaimed Territory or something like that.
	And it was on just like a blog, like a blog post.
	And it's funny that he's now Persana non grada on the left now, right?
	You know, he's going on Tucker the Radical Left really hates him now for being a heretic in what was once their sphere.
	But yeah, he did a lot of good anti-war, anti-corruption, anti-spying work, obviously, with Snowden, of course, later.
	Yeah, credit works too.
	Yeah, and he still does.
	He still does a lot of good work.
	I really enjoyed reading him and listening to him.
	He's a very intelligent guy, very principled, although flawed, as I think we can recognize.
	But that being said, it was clear to me that the entire system was totally corrupt, like at a level that most people couldn't even fathom.
	And I didn't know what to make of it.
	And I wanted to get to the bottom of it.
	And I started researching 9-11 and sort of started waking up to the Jewish question and realizing, oh, wow, it's the Jews behind all of this.
	I mean, at the end of the day, I know that's so simplistic, but it's really so true.
	And it's so obvious at this point.
	Yeah.
	But it's interesting.
	Yeah.
	I had the same reaction.
	I was like, oh, only uncouth knuckle-draggers are anti-Semites, right?
	You know, I had the total Hollywood stereotype of neo-Nazis in my head.
	And then you can only observe reality for so long.
	And to that point, too, it really was illegal immigration and the non-white invasion of this country, too, that helped wake me up.
	When I moved to Northern Virginia sometime in, I was like the 2005, 2006, I remember seeing these what were clearly once safe, middle-class, cohesive white suburbs just turned into utter barrios, broken glass, you know, just look, it looked like it could have been Guadalajara or Tijuana and not Alexandria or Arlington.
	And I was like, this really is like an invasion and a replacement.
	This isn't right.
	And then, of course, you start digging into how did these people get here?
	Why are American white demographics declining so much?
	And you go back to one of the foundational, utter collapse moments, which was the 1965 Immigration Act.
	I think realizing who wrote that bill, who pushed that bill, Emmanuel Seller, it really goes back to where this country went wildly off the tracks, giving it a charitable interpretation, of course.
	Yeah, no, absolutely.
	Well, so getting back to your experience in the alternative media, you're currently the host of Full House, as I mentioned at the top of the show.
	I remember listening to a program called the Fatherland.
	Were you involved in that program as well?
	Yes, sir.
	I joined that the week after I attended Charlottesville.
	I remember I had been a listener to that on the Right Stuff Network and had been talking to those guys.
	And then after going through the crucible of Charlottesville, they were like, you got to come on and talk about it.
	I was like, okay, yeah, sure, absolutely.
	Because it was such a searing experience.
	No regrets about that one either, despite how it turned out.
	And so I just joined to tell my story about marching in that city for the forces of good, right?
	Didn't want that statue to come down, wanted to stand by my friends and really hated Antifa and the radical left at that time.
	And yeah, I got clubbed over the head.
	I tore my ACL, saw the cops stand down.
	So it was kind of a compelling story to just jump into the show.
	And then I stuck around to do more dad content, right?
	I've got three kids.
	I had two then.
	And it's the easiest thing in the world.
	Or I shouldn't say it's the easiest thing in the world to talk about because you always have the balance of how much you don't want to overshare, right?
	Because it's a very personal thing.
	But there's just every single day with kids is a new adventure.
	And you have cute moments and frustrating moments and things like that.
	So what we try to do on Full House is just bring that into the picture without profanity.
	Most of the time, we make no promises, right?
	But we want to.
	Yeah, I was going to say, I think I've heard some profanity from time to time, but that's okay.
	It's understandable.
	We try to make the vast majority of it safe to listen to in the minivan.
	And that was one of the reasons.
	So the Fatherland, you know, went for another year and a half or so, and all good things eventually come to an end, unfortunately.
	So it took a little hiatus there, and then still had the fire in my belly to keep doing that content, not just for current parents, but for the aspiring ones.
	As we say, for all those guys out there who want to become fathers and for the gals who want to become mothers too, but for one reason or another, it's just not looking too good or they need help or the dating scene is such a toxic wasteland that they're starting to lose hope.
	So we do, you know, we've been going for almost three years now.
	This April will be our third year of content.
	And some of the earlier shows, we did more foundational things about how to talk to your kids about our issues and how to get that quality girl and things like that.
	So we tried to cover really those fundamental shows early on.
	And now as we've matured and grown, we've taken on a lot more of the societal stuff and frankly prepping too.
	I mean, our one mission is to every week provide content that is useful for people.
	One of my biggest gripes about our guy podcasts over the years is that they could be a little bit self-indulgent.
	They could be a little bit jokey and meme-y, sort of just trying to have fun and make people laugh.
	And there's a place for that, of course, right?
	And your show is a great example of just doing these really meaty, meaningful interviews.
	But just add value for people, get their minds thinking.
	And in this sick world, it's crazy, John.
	Like everything has essentially gone as we have foreseen it, right?
	There were times back in 2012, 2014, where I think a lot of us thought, am I crazy?
	Am I going off the rails here?
	Am I misinterpreting all these horrible things that I'm seeing in society and government and business, et cetera?
	Oh, no.
	If anything.
	Now it's on full display.
	Yeah, we're seeing it come full circle.
	Yeah, oh, that is so true.
	And you see this on literally in every major city across the entire country.
	I don't care if you're in Los Angeles or New York or Chicago or Houston, anywhere, you're going to see the same collapse of civilization, basically.
	And it's all a result of these issues, you know, these very taboo issues and who's ultimately responsible for bringing them about.
	And yeah, you know, we're seeing it.
	It's a media-style bust out of a transcontinental once-great empire, as somebody once put it.
	I mean, they're throughout the foundation of this country, of the society, of this culture.
	It's disgusting, it's horrifying, but I guess it's gratifying to be able to say, yeah, we told you so.
	Yeah.
	Well, you know, you kind of actually alluded to this already or kind of described like the purpose and mission of Full House.
	And I wanted to see if you could maybe elaborate on that.
	I mean, I've been listening, you know, I don't know if I've been listening since the very, very beginning, but I've been following you guys for at least the past two years.
	And you're right.
	I mean, you guys have covered all sorts of very, very interesting topics.
	Religion, prepping, as you mentioned, all sorts of, you know, fatherhood issues and talking to your kids, raising your kids, all these sorts of things.
	In fact, I missed this episode.
	I just went back and listened to it this weekend.
	You guys interviewed a couple guys that are Mormons, which I thought was very, very interesting.
	I was a little nervous about that.
	Yeah, I thought, you know, because some of our guys get so triggered easily, right, by some of these sensitive things.
	But they were great guys, right?
	Yeah.
	Do they know the score?
	Yeah.
	Oh, I thought it was fascinating.
	I mean, I actually have family in Salt Lake City, and I was actually just there.
	I've been there twice in the past six months or so.
	And, you know, we went down and kind of walked around like the Temple Square area.
	And it's a very, very interesting religion.
	I don't know if I totally agree with everything, but some of the ideas are very interesting, including the idea that the Americas were discovered by the people we know as the ancient Israelites well before Christopher Columbus came over here.
	I didn't even know that was an aspect of Mormonism.
	And I was like, what?
	This actually sounds very interesting and quite compelling based on some of the research I've done totally independently of this.
	So I didn't even know that was an aspect of Mormonism.
	And I'm sorry, I don't even want to get thrown off by this, but my point in bringing this up is that you guys have covered a lot of very, very interesting topics from practical knowledge to political issues, historical topics.
	So it's a very, very interesting podcast.
	But again, the main purpose, in my view, is really underscoring the importance of families, parenthood, and especially fatherhood, I think.
	Absolutely.
	Thanks for that, John.
	One of the lessons that you and I have both probably learned in Spades over the past decade or more is how often our guys agree on 90, 95% of things and yet are willing at the drop of a hat to go at each other's throats over anything from religion to optics to Trump.
	And now, of course, to Russia-Ukraine.
	So one of the things, I mean, I have very strong opinions that I more or less express on the show, but sometimes I intentionally dial them back to be a little bit more of a moderator as opposed to a stem winder, a haymaker.
	But we do try to be that place where Normies can tune in and be like, huh, these guys aren't crazy.
	The most fervent radical national socialists can tune in and not be like, these guys are a bunch of cucks.
	And, you know, maybe even an honest broker, if that's not too grandiose, by just being good guys.
	You know, we've got a great stable of regulars, including our pal Sam, who's a longtime white nationalist, was a skinhead, you know, one of those 1.0 guys who's seen it all.
	And then, of course, Potato Smasher, who's a founding member of the National Justice Party and who's a young father of two sets of twins.
	So he's got- That's unbelievable.
	I didn't know if that was like a joke or like what that was.
	I was like, this guy's got two sets of twins.
	How did they do that?
	That's incredible.
	And I myself am a twin.
	I have a twin sister.
	And I've always wanted to have twins and to know that he has two sets.
	My gosh, they must be a very, very busy couple.
	God bless them.
	Absolutely.
	Yeah, bless him and his lovely wife.
	And the other, you know, our mission statement, you know, we're the world's finest show for white fathers, aspiring ones, and the whole bio fam.
	A little grandiose there, but we're trying to earn it over the years.
	But one of the core messages is that, you know, we all know that things are messed up.
	We all know that, you know, in all frankness, Western civilization is crumbling, dying, and increasingly being accelerated.
	And we're going to talk about Russia, Ukraine later.
	It's a fascinating new development in this whole storyline.
	But without white children, we can go back to the 14 words or anything.
	If it weren't for white children and this really dangerous time that they're coming into, there would still be reason to fight, but there would be much less reason to fight.
	And for a lot of guys, having kids and becoming a father makes them more resolute and resolved to get involved in the cause or the movement or whatever we're calling it, right?
	Good white people who know the score and don't want to just take it anymore.
	But it's also this very conflicting vulnerability that you have when you have kids, right?
	A lot of guys are like, oh, I can't, I don't want to get toxic.
	You know, I got malice to feed.
	Totally legitimate concern.
	So if you go overboard in activity, yes, you do absolutely put yourself at risk.
	But if you intentionally play it extremely safe and keep your opinions to yourself, I know guys who go a little bit crazy, right?
	And they're sort of beating themselves up for knowing the score, but not doing more.
	It's a psychological conflict.
	It's a risk-reward calculation that you have to do.
	And I don't have all the answers, John.
	I used to, you know, we thought Trump was going to be the savior and that flamed out very early.
	And you could just say, well, we just need to sit back and relax and watch this thing burn down and then pick up the pieces, or we need to go through the political process and actually give it a good start.
	I don't know what the right answer is, but having big, healthy, resilient families and networking is the sort of lowest common denominator of good, rewarding things you can do that are, you know, make you happier.
	And what's more natural than having progeny, people who will carry on your gene gene line and give you more reason to fight, too.
	Yeah, well, I mean, the whole thing, it really is a balancing act.
	I mean, gosh, when I was first sort of waking up to a lot of this stuff, it's extremely emotionally draining.
	It's an emotional roller coaster.
	You know, you want to tell everybody and wake everybody up.
	And that very rarely ever works out, at least in my experience.
	So it's a balancing act.
	And I think one of the things that I've come to realize, and I've been doing this for over 10 years now, is that there's so little really that we can do.
	I mean, it's all about, as you said, networking, leading a good life, trying to do what you can in your own personal life to sort of make the world a better place.
	I know that sounds very sort of cringe and cliche, but at the end of the day, that's really all we can do at this point.
	I mean, I don't really see a political solution.
	Certainly not on the horizon anytime soon, anyways.
	And I could be wrong about that.
	Sure.
	And I think it's important to politically organize.
	And, you know, I totally support the NJP and anybody that's doing pro-white activism and that sort of thing.
	But at the end of the day, I think we are really in a very difficult situation, and we have been for a very, very long time.
	It's almost like we have to start all over and rebuild everything from the ground up, and that's going to take a lot of hard work.
	Yeah.
	You know, not to be all Jordan Peterson, but it starts at home.
	It starts with yourself, the sort of concentric circles you have to yourself be healthy and upstanding, right?
	We've probably met a lot of guys in this thing who were brilliant or had many solutions and didn't have their stuff together personally or individually.
	Certainly, I'm no saint, but I'd like to think that.
	So, yeah, we talk about becoming a little bit more resilient with prepping.
	That's not a bad idea to hedge your bets.
	No, that's not a solution at all.
	Having as many trusted friends, ideally, as close as possible to you, is a huge asset.
	And it's a great reward if there's not civil war tomorrow.
	And if this thing really goes pear-shaped, you want to have as many comrades as possible.
	That was one of the things when I first got involved, I realized I was one of those stereotypical, isolated, deracinated, suburban dads who all the people I spoke to, it was either just about the kids, not that there's anything wrong with talking about your kids, but it was the weather or sports.
	And I was like, this is all vapid and empty and hollow and materialistic and gay.
	Right.
	So getting involved with this in politics was a way to meet men who were far more intelligent, competent, and forward-thinking.
	That's not, you know, it's not like a sales pitch.
	That's just absolutely true.
	But yeah, you know, we have to embrace, I think, let a thousand blossoms bloom or let a thousand flowers bloom in terms of different efforts and not attack people even if we think that they're wrong.
	I mean, I certainly have strong opinions about what's right, what's wrong.
	But if somebody is more or less putting in the time in what we perceive as good faith, God bless.
	I tend to be with you.
	I mean, I don't see whatever you think of Trump and whatever you think of the 2020 election, it's pretty clear there was some serious skullduggery there of one stripe or another.
	So if they can tinker or steal a federal presidential election, it's pretty hard to get excited about stuff lower down the food chain.
	But maybe I'm wrong.
	Sometimes just the effort and just putting your face out and running and showing people that there is another way, that not everybody is like those milquetoast Republican, useless politicians or those purple-haired, you know, tranny freak Democrat society destroyers.
	So always be hedging, right?
	You always want to be doing a little bit of prepping.
	You want to be growing your family.
	You want to be adding to your friend network.
	This sounds like mission impossible.
	But every day, try to do something.
	Even if you're just putting out propaganda on the internet, remember, it's always somebody's first time coming along to our way of thinking.
	We're salty old veterans by now, John.
	Right.
	There's people coming along all the time.
	I love taking the time.
	It's really like a trip down memory lane when you get with some, I won't even call him normie, some normal American who's waking up to the fact that there's something rotten in the state of Denmark and then bringing them along.
	It really is, I'm not particularly religious, but if there is a God, I think it's God's work to try to bring the truth to people.
	We have no interest in being wrong.
	What do we care most about?
	Truth and frankly, being right.
	And our worldview has been justified and vindicated in spades over the past decade.
	Yeah.
	Well, I mean, gosh, just over my lifetime, I mean, we've really seen the systematic destruction of the family, traditional gender roles, and, you know, like the elevation of feminism and homosexuality, sexual degeneracy in general.
	And now, we got trainees everywhere.
	This whole transgenderism thing has really taken off over the course of the past couple of years.
	I mean, it's entirely upended traditional American society in a matter of one or two generations.
	And we see the consequences all around us, all throughout society on television, in our, you know, in our real world, in our daily interactions with people, just operating in this total clown world that we live in.
	And it's so obvious.
	And there are, you know, most people that I run into recognize, especially white people, they recognize that something is very, very off.
	It's just they haven't pieced it together and really figured out what the hell is going on and who is ultimately responsible for it.
	Sure.
	That's really where we're at right now, I think.
	And with a lot of people, too, you can remind me of something that, you know, frankly, Adolf Hitler said in Mein Kampf about arguing with Jews.
	You know, like you, you could make your point and then they come back the next day and it's like you never even had the argument.
	Unfortunately, with a lot of white Americans, you can really do soup to nuts explanations of things calmly, confidently, cite sources, and they're like, huh, you make a really good point.
	I see that.
	And then you see them again, like two or three weeks later, and they're still repeating whatever they heard from the biggest lying apparatus of all time, the Western mainstream media, which I've never seen it worse than this, right?
	We live through COVID.
	We live through the tilted scales of the 2020 election, but the media coverage on Russia-Ukraine, not to get ahead of ourselves here, has just been so flagrantly dishonest.
	It still shocks even me.
	Well, the media has always been bad, but it's almost like it's getting progressively more and more in your face, just total bald-faced lies.
	And it's been like that, I mean, for a long time.
	But maybe, I don't know, maybe it's just increasing in intensity and then the scale of it.
	I don't know what it is, but I tend to agree with you.
	It's really off the charts at this point.
	Yep.
	And one other thing, John, it's funny.
	We were talking before the show about, you know, we moved to the country.
	My family moved to Appalachia in a very white, rural, and red, such as it were, area.
	And it's really been pleasant.
	It's really been a healthy move.
	It's something for your audience to consider.
	Now, I know a lot of people disagree.
	You know, you can't just keep doing white flight.
	They're going to come to you there.
	True and true.
	But another thing that we talk about on Full House is despite the horrors that we are just confronted with every single day, you know, our lives are short and precious, and our kids' childhoods are especially precious.
	And it's kind of incumbent on them to give them a safe upbringing, as wholesome as possible, and increasingly as insulated from the evils out there as we can.
	And there are still many good, affordable, more or less healthy and peaceful places in this country where you can eke out some happiness and peace of mind in a collapsing society.
	So there's plenty of places you can look, Pacific Northwest, Appalachia, down south.
	But it's just, you know, I'm sure it's not the first time your audience has thought about this.
	But everything is in flux in this country.
	How much longer is the dollar going to be worth something?
	I don't know.
	It's going to crumble at some point.
	We don't know when.
	Some people think earlier than later.
	But it's a good time to make moves while the system still more or less works, even though it's crumbling or groaning down the tracks eventually.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	No, yeah, no, it is definitely something to think about, something I've been thinking about a lot.
	And I'm sure many other people out there listening have as well.
	I frankly don't understand how the system is still operating.
	Like the real estate market is out of control.
	And this is something that I've been saying since when I first moved to California, I was out there.
	I remember, I just vividly remember, like, I was on a bike ride and just like looking at houses for sale.
	And they're like these little tiny 800 square foot homes in San Diego, California, selling for $700,000.
	You have no yard.
	You have like a little tiny driveway.
	And I'm just thinking, how is this even possible?
	Like, who is even, who has the money to buy something like this?
	And yet, and yet it's even worse now.
	I mean, a house going for $700,000 back then is probably close to a million now.
	Just pulled up.
	30-year mortgage rates.
	30-year mortgage rates are over 5% now.
	They were in the fours and the threes for a really long time.
	So you've got rampant real estate price appreciation.
	Now the mortgage rates are coming up.
	I mean, it's tempting to say that we're looking at another 2007, 2008 scenario because guys always ask all the time, should I stop renting and finally make the jump into buying a place?
	And I'm like, oh, man, I don't know.
	It's not a good idea.
	I know, I have no idea.
	I don't know when the best time to make a move is.
	If there ever is a right time, it's just something I think you got to do.
	But it's definitely not easy.
	And I don't think it's going to get any easier.
	I mean, again, I don't understand how the economy itself is able to perpetuate itself like this, where we're just literally printing money left and right.
	I mean, we saw that with this COVID situation.
	There was, you know, you saw memes and statistics and stuff online about two-thirds of every dollar in circulation was printed in the last year or whatever it was.
	You know, and I don't know how true that is, but they definitely did print a lot of money over the course of the past couple of years.
	And I just can't.
	Yeah, and I just, you know, again, I just, I don't understand how it's able to perpetuate itself.
	And yet here we are.
	I think it's rapidly, I think our time is coming.
	And the system is going to have to give one way or the other at some point.
	Absolutely.
	The looming end of the petrodollar, the looming end of the treasury being able to just, well, the Federal Reserve and the Treasury acting in cahoots to just print, print, print, rack up the debt.
	And then that was made possible by interest rates being so low for so long, which was itself a reflection of the sort of weak animal spirits in the economy.
	And I'm not an economist, so I'm not going to give too much commentary on this.
	But yeah, you can feel it in your bones that the great experiment of just punting and slapping some paint on this old puppy, you know, back from the financial crisis of 2007, 2008, seems to be losing steam.
	Yeah, energy prices, gas.
	I mean, in many ways, it's really a return to the 70s, right?
	The 70s had the rampant inflation.
	It had sort of a societal malaise.
	You had the radical left running around firebombing and doing all sorts of radical things.
	And then they were able to have this little bit of fake cultural renaissance in the 80s.
	And I certainly don't think that that's on the horizon.
	I am unapologetically, I don't know if pro-Russian is the right way to say it, but at least a Russia respecter and a Putin respecter because I was thinking the other day, I was like, man, I don't even know what it feels like to live in a country or a society where you genuinely think that better days are ahead of us as opposed to behind us.
	And of course, public polling reflects that too, right?
	Do you approve or disapprove of the way this country is going?
	Do you think it's going in the right direction?
	That's like something bipartisan.
	70 to 80% of Americans probably disagree, even hardcore partisans, left and right.
	And yet, I studied in Russia in 2001, spent a semester in Moscow.
	I revisited the country about five years later.
	And just in five, it was a fascinating ability, a window into seeing a country go from essentially the doorstep of perdition under Yeltsin, alcoholism, default, national malaise.
	And then whatever you think of him, I think it's indisputable that Putin basically pulled that country out of a terminal tailspin and made it at least stronger, a little bit healthier, and more able to exercise power on a world stage against the West that has clearly marked it for destruction almost since the end of the Cold War, right?
	They just wanted to keep finishing it off.
	So there are ways.
	Obviously, Germany in the 1930s is the cardinal or the primary example that so many of our guys look to of a radical political revolution.
	It was more or less an electoral revolution in 1933 with the National Socialists coming in, and they did shock therapy and turned Germany around on a dime.
	And my assessment is that Putin has sort of done revolution by evolution and taken a crumbling state and a sick people and very slowly and methodically recovered Orthodox Christianity as at least a respected and central element in culture and rejuvenating a military and fighting back against the worst excesses of Western cultural degeneracy.
	It's certainly by no means a fantasy land perfect world for people there.
	But it gives a little bit of hope that things don't always have to be this way when we're so used to it in the West.
	Yeah, no, very, very well said.
	I completely agree with everything.
	And see, that's our problem living in America is that, I mean, basically everybody listening to this program grew up in this multi-racial, anti-white, Jewish-run, globo-homo empire that we refer to as the United States of America.
	The United States of America is not a nation.
	It is an empire, and it has been all of my life.
	And one of the defining aspects of it is that you are not allowed to have a positive, healthy, pro-white racial identity.
	It's not something that's encouraged or promoted or even discussed, let alone allowed.
	It's worse than pedophilia.
	And yeah, and I mean, whites are the people that founded this country.
	And you see this playing out.
	I don't know if you've, I haven't really watched much of it, but I've seen some clips of this hideous black woman that's been nominated to be a Supreme Court justice.
	Sure.
	And you see the interviews and the testimony in these totally ridiculous, embarrassing Congresspeople just asking her questions.
	And it's like this, it just is so reflective of how disgusting this country is and how anti-white it is.
	And you see all these minorities and the way they frame things.
	It's always white people's fault for everything.
	And it's just like, we cannot, this is untenable.
	The situation is untenable.
	So that's what I mean by like us having a very, very serious problem even formulating any sort of political solution because we have no collective identity anymore, at least the vast majority of white people in America.
	And it's something that we've grown up in.
	We've been propagandized with.
	And there's a lot to overcome this anti-white programming that we've all received since childhood.
	Absolutely.
	Yeah.
	And it's vital that we break as many people of that programming as possible because it's clear that we are marked for a slow and steady destruction and ultimately extinction.
	I mean, I'm sure they'd like to keep us around as neo-serfs or kulaks.
	But yeah, we're literally just being milked for our labor and for our contributions to keeping that system running.
	Like you talked about, how the hell are the lights still on and the food still getting delivered?
	You know, truckers and electrical workers and oil and gas drillers, still overwhelmingly white male professions.
	But just, I mean, just the fact that, you know, I'm sure your audience probably gets it, the flagrant and utter hypocrisy of this pedophile, protecting judge being tapped for the highest court in the land because she has African ancestors and a vagina.
	Like, it just makes you want to spit in the street.
	And I frankly don't pay attention to it anymore because it's such just theater.
	And these Republicans are so complicit in all of it.
	They are literally just holding places or useful idiots for Americans who don't get it and still want to feel like they have the ability to revolt every two years or every four years and go into the ballot box and pick the guy who's not as bad as the other guy.
	In 2020, I refused to vote for Trump.
	I had just been so sickened by so many things.
	You know, the lesser of two evils wasn't working for me.
	But the fact that it is unquestionably a racial assault on white people as such, and it is Jewish, largely, overwhelmingly Jewish-directed.
	I mean, no country, no civilization commits suicide this comprehensively over such a time period without a malign, alien, hostile force directing it.
	It's just not in human nature to be this hostile to your own existence, to your own right to get a job on its own merits, to your own right to raise kids that don't think that they should be boys when they're girls, and vice versa.
	It's madness.
	But don't stare into the abyss too close, dear audience, right?
	I mean, because if you do, I mean, God knows, look at the suicide rates.
	Look at the overdose rates, right?
	There's so many sources for despair.
	You just have to summon, whether it's anger or whether it's the will to fight or whatever it is.
	Coach Finstock is just incidental.
	I have done some coaching in the past, but sometimes people need happy warriors and cheerleaders like yourself, John, to give them the truth but not be in total despair.
	Because, look, this new evil empire is going to collapse one way or another from internal contradictions, from external forces, or just from the usual reasons of endless money printing and importing barbarians, right?
	Societies and civilizations throughout history have gone through exactly this thing.
	It's a tragedy that our kids have to live through it.
	I have very candid conversations with my older son, and it breaks my heart to have to tell him more or less the way of the world, but you can't lie to him, right?
	I mean, you have to arm your kids with awareness of how things are and not have them just be these oblivious babes in Toyland as they start getting into adolescence and, God forbid, college.
	Well, see, that's such a good point.
	Something I wanted to ask you about because I think that has been the biggest problem for certainly my generation.
	I think you might be a little bit older than me, but I mean, my parents weren't teaching me about these things or anything, anything serious.
	And this is, I don't think, I think the vast majority of white kids growing up in America were not taught about any of these important topics.
	No, no.
	And It's so infuriating, you know, how we basically get thrown into this mess and we figure it out on our own somehow.
	And then now we're trying to navigate it and figuring out, you know, figuring out what the best thing to do is, what the best way forward is.
	You know, should we speak out about it and risk our career?
	And, you know, it's like you're just thrown into this total mess without any sort of guidance.
	And it's such a shame, and it's something that cannot be repeated.
	Uncharted territory.
	Yeah, it's exciting, too, though.
	I mean, I'd be lying if I'm not smiling, right?
	Because the Chinese curse supposedly is may you live in interesting times.
	I don't think that's a curse.
	I think that's a blessing, right?
	Who wants to just live through boring 1950s suburban America?
	Well, okay, maybe I do.
	Maybe that would be a better time.
	But yeah, I'm 41.
	I grew up in a 90, 10, 90% white, probably 10% black, middle-class, pleasant, safe, cohesive suburb in South Jersey.
	And yeah, I mean, looking back, I mean, my parents should have known better.
	You think back to the greats of Rockwell and Pierce men who saw all this stuff coming decades before us, but it just wasn't bad enough for it to reach critical mass.
	And of course, there wasn't social media.
	But yeah, I mean, I think back, and I had more or less a blissful childhood, which I'm grateful for.
	And I try to emulate and recreate that for our kids.
	But no, the mask is off.
	There's no denying the way of the world.
	And we'd be doing our kids a disservice to just have them be blind patriots and constitution-loving civic nationalists when it's very clear that that is a dead end.
	And that's also what they would want them to be, to be these neutral sort of petri dishes for all the bad stuff that, you know, frankly, they start earlier and earlier through TV, through school.
	And just, I mean, God, just the course.
	You take a drive on an interstate, John, and you see like prep ads and condom ads.
	It's everywhere.
	It's everywhere.
	I know.
	Again, no matter where you're at, I mean, I've traveled pretty extensively in the country, and it doesn't matter where you're at.
	You could be in the middle of Utah.
	You could be in the middle of Nebraska.
	You could be in New York, California, Florida, wherever.
	And you'll see the degeneracy, explicitly anti-white propaganda.
	There have been many people that have commented on this.
	You don't even barely ever see whites in advertising anymore.
	We've been systematically replaced Jews.
	I mean, frankly, it was a bunch of radical anti-white Jewish intellectuals and organized Jewish groups who openly advocate for Jewish interests, right?
	I mean, these groups are openly advocating for Jewish interests.
	They've like pathologized any form of white identity while encouraging minority identities.
	So as long as you're not white, you can have a positive racial or ethnic or gender or sexual identity, except if you're white.
	So it's like, you know, we're competing in this racial struggle, basically.
	I mean, let's be frank about it.
	And we're the only team that's not even allowed to organize as a team.
	You know, that's many of our people willfully go along with the program, right?
	I mean, this is a classic genocide setup, whether they plan to line up The Last of Us against a wall or whether they just plan to flood us with non-whites and suppress our birth rates and get people hooked on opiates or just turn them into degenerate video game, non-reproducing consumers.
	I mean, it's all there.
	It's a full core press.
	I mean, there's so many angles to it.
	It's crazy.
	Well, you know, I remember listening to Strike and Mike.
	Think that's where I originally heard this concept of whites as like a stateless people.
	And it's so apt, it's so true.
	It's a perfect characterization of whites in the entire Western world, especially in America.
	Exactly.
	We have governments.
	Yeah, I mean, we have governments and states that are basically run by Jews and by non-whites and white traders, essentially.
	And all of them are openly hostile to the interests of white people, to the very idea that whites have interests, right?
	I mean, just that very concept.
	Yep, and the only response is to do exactly what they don't want you to do, which is to tribe up, to name the Jew and to build your networks and your wealth to as much extent as possible, and to refuse to shut up, to refuse to get the jab.
	I mean, civil disobedience is something that's going to have to be dusted off en masse pretty soon.
	I mean, the trucker thing up in Canada, the January 6th, whatever criticisms we might mild criticisms, right?
	You know, we'd prefer perfection.
	But God bless everybody who's still got a fight in them, even if they're not doing it for the right reasons, right?
	We wish that there were a million white men march in Washington over, what, six, seven decades now of an unchecked invasion.
	But we'll take the little fights there as we can, even if there may be coping mechanisms for those more uncomfortable.
	That's the thing.
	Whites are so inherently decent and trusting and altruistic that the idea of Jewish power makes them, you know, they've been programmed for sure, but it's also they don't want to think poorly about groups as such.
	They don't want to view themselves as victims, right?
	The old bootstrap thing and everything's fine in my day, left and right.
	But sorry, guys.
	Yeah.
	But that's the only way to view at it.
	Yeah.
	We don't have any more time for that sort of wishful, naive thinking.
	Exactly.
	Especially when these things, these topics, these crises that we see are on display so vividly.
	I mean, think about it.
	The George Floyd situation is like a perfect example of this.
	A guy, a total degenerate, drug-dealing, drug addict thug, and he's turned into a saint.
	And it's like, you know, our country has a revolution over it, basically.
	Inversion of reality.
	I mean, it's almost like I can't even, I don't even have the words for it anymore.
	It's like so clown world level.
	And yet, you know, still so many white people want to sleep and not even face up to reality.
	The silver lining to all that, John, is that I've heard this from so many guys over the years, going back years, Zimmerman and Trayvon.
	Yeah, that was the spark that woke them up.
	Or for many, possibly millions, hopefully more, it was George Floyd, right?
	Or it was the 2015 mass African and Muslim invasion of Europe.
	That was something that really opened my eyes too, because I thought, well, you know, I guess I'm certainly not happy about it happening here in America, but we've always been this proposition nation, right?
	I know that's not actually true.
	That's what they memed.
	That's another Jewish concept that's been endlessly promoted.
	But to see it happening in our cradle continent, as Pat Buchanan so wonderfully phrased it a long time ago, to see the tyranny in Australia where it's real totalitarian hours over COVID still lingering.
	I mean, those people in some of those Australian states were literally just in an open-air prison over COVID.
	I know you don't want to just be like a wow, just wow guy.
	You want to give more prescriptions and things like that, but you have to give people permission in your everyday life.
	One of the nice things, I mean, you know, being a podcaster could be a headache.
	I'm sure you know.
	It's like, you know, it's a lot of work to put out good content.
	But one of the wonderful things is the feedback that you get from people and the anecdotes and the stories and a source for optimism is so many people saying, oh, no.
	Like we had a pilot right in, no idea who he is, but checked out and he was recommending guys go in to be a pilot.
	And he's like, oh, yeah, pilots get it.
	Like, sure, some of them are civic nationalists, but a lot of them FedPost, guys who work, of course, in blue-collar situations.
	That's probably one of our most fertile grounds for recruitment.
	Not people who have been college indoctrinated or have white-collar sinecures to defend, but people who are assault of the earth and not afraid to be honest about these things, but giving permission in your everyday life, wearing a USS Liberty cap to go around.
	I can't tell you how many times people have said, huh, thank you for your service, sir.
	And I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold your horses.
	I'm not a veteran.
	I wanted to pay respect to these men.
	One of our favorite, or one of my favorite shows, at least of the past year or two is when we had four USS Liberty survivors on to talk about how, I mean, most people probably know that that was a surveillance ship that got sunk, or it didn't get sunk.
	The Israelis tried to sink it either as a false flag to get the United States involved in war or at bare minimum to keep it from learning out about war crimes that Israel was committing in Egypt.
	But then you realize, holy cow, this treachery, this willingness to lie and sacrifice good men for evil geopolitical aims goes all the way back to the 60s and beyond.
	I mean, you can even go back to the Lusitania and the USS Maine or even further if you want to, to realize that, yeah, there are so many people in power who are committed to one thing, maintaining and expanding that power and enriching themselves.
	And by God, whether you're religious or not religious, we resolve to not be those people to tell the truth, to tell those scoundrels and evil people, frankly, to go to hell.
	And we're not going to be there willing marks keeping this system going much longer.
	Yes, sir.
	Well said.
	Well, there's a couple topics I want to kind of wrap up with.
	And I got to get your take on this COVID situation.
	Sure.
	I mean, it's been described as a pandemic.
	In my view, it's basically a political pandemic manufactured by the media.
	And it's not really a genuine medical or public health crisis.
	So I'm curious what's your take.
	I know you guys have kind of covered this to a certain extent, but I'm just wondering your own personal view on the matter.
	In the early days, our objective actually was to get as much information out about whether people really should be freaking out or whether this is completely fake and gay or somewhere in between.
	And I'll just speak for myself.
	I mean, of course, I do believe that the virus is real.
	All evidence points to it being U.S. funded, a U.S.-funded, essentially bioweapon or gain of research project that escaped from a Chinese lab or was willfully released.
	But of course, and a lot of people died.
	A lot of old people died.
	I think those are real.
	I'm certainly open to far more conspiratorial theories on this.
	But whatever the ultimate reality of its source and how bad it was, it was clear that this was just a totalitarian hanging curve for the powers that be to knock out of the park.
	And I almost view it as sort of an experiment for them to see what they could get away with with the masks, with the school closures, with the lockdowns, et cetera.
	And you saw different countries handle it more extremely.
	Australia, as I mentioned before, case in point, a lot of people think Australia is like this deliberate testing ground for the worst that they have in store for us.
	And they, you know, they largely got away with it, at least in parts of Australia.
	But it was I think it's largely over now, whether that's because enough people got the jab.
	Of course, I'm on jab.
	We're against the jab.
	It's ineffective at best.
	It might kill you at worst.
	The fact that so many employers were able to get away with forced vaccination of something rushed like this tells you all you need to know.
	But all that said, it does look like they put it in the rearview mirror.
	It did enough damage.
	And now they probably need that economy to start humming again to keep the masses pacified.
	And what you have now are the sort of legacy COVID respectors and enjoyers who are probably sad that it's not crisis.
	And that's a human emotion, too, right?
	Like, it's a crisis.
	You got to put your mask on.
	You got to do this to be a good citizen.
	Obviously, sick and twisted and perpetuated, foisted on them by the system.
	But yeah, it's just, to me, it's another chapter on the road to the end, frankly.
	There's been the BLM riots in 2020, the January 6th, the Canadian truckers.
	The happenings keep accelerating, and that is consistent with the decline of a civilization.
	And there's way more to come, too.
	So buckle up.
	I mean, I'm happy to try to parse that, but it's almost like so many people were talking about it.
	It was the story for two straight years that at least on Full House, we were like, yep, we don't think you should get the jab.
	A lot of guys, one of the classic ones that we had to deal with was, is it worth losing my job over?
	Well, I don't think, I mean, see, in my personal experience, we just flat out said, we're not taking the vaccine.
	Here's a religious exemption.
	And we wrote out letters and submitted it, and that was it.
	That sufficed.
	I think if more people would have done that, taken a stand and recognized that, look, we do have rights that these people are violating.
	And all you have to do is simply invoke them and tell them no.
	True.
	That was a big part of the problem is most people just went along with this, including millions of people who were skeptical of the vaccine, who didn't want to take the vaccine, but did so anyways because they thought they had to, when they could have simply pursued a different angle and said, look, I know my rights.
	I don't have to take this.
	This is not even a legitimate ⁇ it's not even a legitimate vaccine.
	It's a gene therapy, frankly.
	And it's not approved.
	This is not something that's been tested.
	This is unacceptable.
	And I'm not going to let you threaten me like this.
	These are my rights.
	These are state.
	You could look at any single state government in the entire country.
	Every single state has specific laws on their books that protect your rights in this regard.
	And the federal government does as well.
	So, I mean, there's ways to, you know, it's not that hard, really.
	You could look at sample.
	That's all I did, really.
	I just found a sample letter online and sort of tweaked it and submitted it.
	And it's been successful.
	And every time that I've attempted to do this anyways, but again, this was something that very few people did.
	Everybody just kind of caved and went along with it.
	Yeah, even if they were skeptical of taking it and didn't want to take the vaccine, which to me is a total tragedy.
	Can you imagine?
	Sure.
	I mean, I would have much preferred a mass unified resistance.
	Hell no, we won't take it.
	I will totally admit to us being, I would call it pragmatic on full house, or others would say unprincipled, only because I know a lot of good, very smart, accomplished men who did the calculation.
	And they said, look, if I don't take this, you know, most of them opted for the J and J single jab.
	They said, look, if I don't take this, I'm going to lose my job.
	I'm going to have to sell my house and I have no idea what the hell I'm going to do with my life.
	I have to cuck on this one.
	And I said, you know, I would respect you more if you stuck to your principles, but I'm certainly like, I don't know if that's decency or cowardice, but I just don't have the cojones to say no.
	You must say no.
	Exit with imperfect information, right?
	And I mean, these guys didn't drop dead.
	They're still having kids.
	So, you know, some people would call this like, you know, phony big brain centrism, right?
	Like, oh, no, the pro-vax people are wrong and the most vehement anti-vax people are wrong.
	A lot of times, the truth is in between on all of these things, but no, no doubt, the people who said hell no and said that this, I mean, it's just not right on principle, regardless.
	And that's it.
	That's exactly it.
	I mean, there's, you know, you can see all sorts of theories about the vaccine and what's in the vaccine.
	And, you know, that stuff is sort of interesting to me.
	But at the end of the day, this is a constitutional principle thing here.
	Like, no, I'm not taking the vaccine.
	I don't care.
	Oh, my constitution-respecting friend.
	I know, I know, right.
	I know that's sort of, you know, whatever.
	But at the end of the day, that's what it is.
	And Tanji Brown, I'm sure, will be very respecting of our vaccine principles.
	Well, but the thing is, I mean, if at least in my case, it's been successful.
	I think if more people would have done that, they would have found some success.
	Oh, sure.
	And these people would have backed down.
	I mean, I don't know.
	It's just crazy.
	And I think you're right.
	You made the point about how a lot of this, you know, they're sort of experimenting to see what they could get away with to a certain extent, how much people would put up with.
	And they found out that people will basically go along with anything, which is more or less, more or less, anyways.
	Interesting.
	The percentage of people who refuse to get the vax are also statistically the ones who are not extremely eager to start World War III over eastern Ukraine, right?
	So they've seen that.
	Yeah, you could put on some people say, oh, well, you know, the unvaxed people are the ones who are going to be really screwed when they unveil COVID 3.0 or whatever, right?
	Because that's going to target all the people who didn't get vax and really kill them all.
	Okay, I'll gamble on that.
	I'll do the right thing at the moment based on speculation going forward.
	But yeah, I mean, you have tens of millions of people in America at least who are willing to say, no, this stinks to high heavens.
	Screw your masks, screw your vax, screw your jab.
	I'll homeschool my kids if I have to.
	Fire me, faggot.
	I'll find something else to do.
	And those who stood strong and toughed it out, I suspect today with them sort of wrapping these things up are going to come out of the smelling like roses and glad that they didn't do that and glad that they showed spine and will still be able to make money.
	You know, another thing, I mean, there are severe or real labor shortages in this country, all over the country.
	We're still not to the point where people are starving.
	You know, food shortages may be down the pike.
	Sure, you should be planning for that.
	If you're not, I'd suggest you're shirking.
	The dog and the cat are fighting next to me.
	The wheels are falling off here, John, if there's any background noise.
	But yeah, do the right thing to the extent that you can and not be a total madman family destroyer and have those backup plans available.
	You can make it through.
	This is not quite the Rome 420 or 440, whatever it was when Alaric came through to smash the heads of the last emperors.
	Yeah, yeah, exactly.
	Well, one last thing about COVID, real quick, because now it's all about, well, it's been about, you know, they've been promoting the vaccine from the very beginning.
	I mean, Bill Gates, you know, in March of 2020, when they first declared a pandemic, was saying that the whole world had to be vaccinated in order for the pandemic to truly be over.
	I mean, he was saying that, you know, right from the very beginning.
	And now the reports that I've been seeing mostly are dealing with the vaccine being promoted to children.
	And this has been going on for a while, but they're getting FDA approval or emergency use authorization or however they're doing it.
	Over my dead body.
	Yeah, so this is something that is very concerning to me.
	I'm very, I would frankly consider myself an anti-vaxxer.
	I've studied the issue pretty extensively.
	Sure.
	I read a book that is just absolutely a must-read for anybody that's interested in this topic called Dissolving Illusions that just scientifically, completely debunks the idea that vaccines did anything to improve public health and end some of these diseases that we commonly associate vaccination with ending.
	There's just so much evidence and proof that just totally debunks that idea.
	So I'm skeptical of vaccines.
	I don't think, as you said, I mean, at the least, it's not going to do anything.
	At the worst, it's going to kill you.
	I mean, it's really not doing anything to benefit your health in any way.
	And that includes the COVID vaccine.
	But I'm curious, I mean, what do you think about it being promoted on children now?
	I mean, it's obviously very alarming in my mind.
	God, I mean, war crime was the first thing that came to mind.
	I mean, jabbing our innocent kids with this rushed big farm of garbage for something that they of all classes are the least likely to die from, right?
	Yeah, according to their own statistics.
	Yeah, it's an evil, it's an evil flex.
	I guess at best, it's a money-making venture.
	At worst, it's literally poisoning our children.
	And just to the trust issue in the society that we live in, you know, we have still gone along with the quote-unquote regular course of vaccinations, you know, the tetanus, et cetera, et cetera.
	But now, you know, our trust in society and in our elites is so low that you're like, let me see that thing first.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Make sure that you're not trying to sneak at COVID.
	I mean, I'll be honest, like the last couple times I've taken my kids in to doctor's appointments, they've said, the first they pushed the flu shot, and then they pushed, or they asked about the COVID shot.
	And both times I just said, no, thank you with a sort of stony gaze and dead voice, and they backed off.
	And same with circumcision the last couple of times, just been like, no, you will not be doing that.
	And they're like, okay, because these people are used to dealing with these weak mass media poison people who just go along with whatever they suggest.
	So when they do meet that steely resolve, I know what you're trying to do, and that's not going to happen here.
	I'm sure sometimes they chimp out and they try to argue with you.
	But when they meet someone who's confident and resolved to say no to them, they're like, oh, okay, we've got a resistor here.
	Yeah.
	This guy knows what's up.
	We better not mess with that media.
	For now, at least.
	Okay, well, you know what?
	I want to wrap up and kind of conclude with this situation in Ukraine.
	We've kind of already discussed it, but it's – Save the best for last.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, a very, very interesting situation.
	You guys have a really good article on the website, full-house.com, Fog of Deceit, Debunking False Narratives on Russia and Putin at War, which I was actually, I saw it posted this weekend, and I wanted to read it.
	And I was trying to read it before we started the show.
	I didn't realize how long it was.
	It's pretty good.
	Yeah, it's pretty comprehensive.
	It tests our abilities to wade through a lot of information.
	So many of us have an internet brain where we're like, oh, please, can I get this in a thousand words or less?
	Can you just put this in a meme for me, please?
	Show me a picture.
	No, it was really good, though.
	And I know, you know, again, you had mentioned how you have experience studying in Russia and, you know, have been following the country for a long time.
	So I'm just curious, like, overall, you know, you sort of already explained your take on Putin.
	Again, I totally pretty much agree with your assessment.
	The article that I mentioned basically describes Putin as an authoritarian Russian civic nationalist, which is a characterization that I think is totally accurate.
	To me, he's a very serious, legitimate, honest statesman who really does care about his country and the world for that matter.
	And another thing that I've recognized, like listening to some of his speeches, including I actually just watched a 30-minute speech that he gave in, I think it was in 2007 at some big European conference, where it was very clear that he does view the international legal architecture established post-World War II as a very legitimate arbiter of international disputes.
	Sure.
	As opposed to what we see from the U.S., this total naked, flagrant violation of all of these principles.
	At the same time, they're the ones talking about the need for international norms and all this other bullshit.
	And they've been doing it for decades.
	And the bombing of Serbia in 1999, certainly Iraq in 2003.
	So he clearly recognizes the total hypocrisy and double standards, not only from America, but this really this America-led world order, which he's been very, very strongly condemning and exposing and basically saying, we want nothing to do with this anymore.
	You people are crazy.
	Have fun destroying your own countries.
	We're going to do our own thing over here with China.
	And he's right.
	Yep.
	And he's totally right.
	And he's totally right.
	It's tragic just on China.
	I mean, we essentially force Russia to orient East instead of West due to two or three decades of implacable hostility toward Russia and a crystal clear objective to break them, to get them over the barrel to neoliberal, garbage, materialist, post-civilizational shit, frankly, that we're forced to live in.
	I think a lot of our guys, we could talk about it.
	We've done entire shows.
	I would encourage your listeners to check out.
	We have all of our shows up on Telegram for Telegram listeners.
	We're going to boost that realist report Telegram channel, John, that needs way more followers, but I know you have other avenues to get things out.
	But just zooming back, I mean, just addressing our guys listening to this who already know the score in the West but are hung up on Putin individually or Russia as being inadequately based, for lack of a better term, right?
	Well, they're multiracial and there's still Jews in power and there's oligarchs and Putin said denazify Ukraine.
	Yes, we shouldn't like rule out those things.
	But you now have a, as opposed to Trump, who said a few cool things in 2015 and 2016, and then very rapidly it became at least apparent to me that he was at best woefully incompetent and unserious, or at worst a liar, a con man, and a Jew stooge.
	You have two decades from which to judge Russia, saying very fairly to the West, stop doing this.
	This is our red line.
	Ukraine is historically, culturally, linguistically, and racially Slavic and important to us.
	And you are not going to put your hostile, quote-unquote, defensive military alliance that became anachronistic all the way back in 1991, but still kept chugging along as a useful tool for the project, for the global project.
	And I would say, God bless Putin and Russia for sticking together and not falling like so many dominoes that they wanted to.
	And they've been remarkably restrained in Ukraine despite the most flagrant dishonest propaganda coming out of Ukraine and also out of the Western media.
	And in my opinion, they are utterly justified to neutralize what was unquestionably a threat.
	You know, what was going on in Ukraine between the 2014 Maidan coup and today?
	What was going on was essentially a PSIOP to get Ukrainians to hate Russians for them to view legitimate, racially, and linguistically Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine who said, we don't want to be part of this project.
	Look at Crimea.
	Has Crimea turned into a Holodomor 2.0 Russian backwater filled with Chechen rapists and gangsters?
	No, they've invested a ton of money in infrastructure and health and all these things.
	And those people, I'm not a Russian stooge.
	I don't have any Russian contacts.
	The last time I was there was 2006.
	I just like to call things as I see them and to see what is this is, I don't know if it's a clash of civilizations, but it's certainly a clash of systems right now that the West has not encountered to date, right?
	They only play around with Iraqs and Irans and North Koreas, thinking that they have everything else under control.
	And now they have a two-headed beast in their assessment of Russia and China finally feeling like they have achieved the wealth and the power and the independence, the autonomy to say, no, we are not going along with your project anymore.
	And you can see the West absolutely freaking out about it.
	And of course, having to make Hitler or make Putin into Hitler 2.0, the Ukrainians are the poor, innocent village country folk who could never do any wrong.
	It's all lies, deceit, disgusting stuff.
	You can read it in that article.
	But, you know, it was just a random listener who sent me that article.
	And I read through it and I said, holy smokes, like, I think you nailed it.
	I don't agree with 100% of it, but who can?
	It's very good.
	It's very true.
	When all the usual suspects are telling you that you must support Ukraine, I mean, Ukraine is like the new BLM, right?
	You see it.
	You could use your Amazon app as like a proxy for what is the current thing that you must support in 2020, 2021, whatever it was.
	And it was like black voices and black actors.
	That was the PSYOP then.
	Today, it is the poor Ukrainians and the refugees and the evil Russians.
	You have to be able to see through it.
	And it's hazardous times too, John.
	Guys are reaching out saying, holy cow, my old military buddies who I thought knew the score on all this stuff, they want to go over there and kill Russians.
	It's the freaking Cold War all over again.
	Their ability to flip that switch and activate that programming from half a century ago is the media is so evil.
	Well, the point that I wanted to make, you know, white nationalists, especially, and I guess other dissidents in general, we've long viewed the corrupt, Jewish-run American empire, this global homo world empire, as completely illegitimate and contrary to the interests of Americans and really of the people of the world.
	Now, and this is why I think what's going on in Ukraine is so significant.
	Now we have powerful nation states like Russia and China not only openly exposing and condemning this totally degenerate, corrupt, American-led world order, but they're now actively resisting it and setting up an alternative, which in my view is a very positive development, regardless of what you want to say about Putin or China or whether they're in bed with the Jews or whatever.
	I mean, I frankly don't think that they are, but this is a very positive development.
	I mean, if we're, you know, as a white person in America, our biggest enemy is the federal government.
	I mean, frankly, they are out to destroy us, and they make no bones about it.
	And anything that sort of delegitimizes and undermines that authority, that power, that status on the world stage is good, is a positive development.
	Amen, brother.
	Couldn't have said it better.
	I mean, all those old adages from your grandparents or your great-grandparents, don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
	Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
	Yeah, sorry, Russia and China don't conform to our every single ideological and policy preference, right?
	We wouldn't want to live in those systems exactly as they are.
	We'd wish that they had like perfect pro-white bona fides and or maybe national socialist and all of these things.
	But it's a different story.
	I think a lot of guys too.
	We rightfully have our ideological preferences in the United States, in Europe, and the countries that we operate in, but it's completely unrealistic to project them on other countries when, remember, the first principle of statecraft or good leadership is to maintain stability, to avoid chaos, and to do right by the largest number of your citizens as possible.
	And I think net net, what painstakingly done over the past three decades.
	It's not perfect, but I'd make certain changes left and right.
	But they're standing up to manifest evil.
	And you could make a very strong case that they are less evil.
	And we know we don't like the lesser of two evils calculus in the United States when it comes to pulling the lever.
	But frankly, we don't have much of a say in the matter.
	All we can do is look at this stuff and try to educate our people and not let them fall down the hole of the lies and the brainwashing and the propaganda that they're subjected to 24-7 here on social media, from the news, wherever they get it, and increasingly so in a 100% airtight, vacuum-sealed, censorship-laden information operation.
	I hate to sound like Alex Jones, but it really is a war on for your mind.
	And increasingly now we're itching toward the point where they're going to bang the war drums again and get us into World War III, which let's not forget, finishing us off would be most easily accomplished by a massive war where millions of white people are drummed into the ranks to go kill Russians or go kill Chinese over Taiwan or over Ukraine.
	It's absolutely ludicrous on its face.
	Yep, total madness.
	And we've seen people making those hints for a very long time, including our president just recently.
	Biden was saying regime change.
	Yeah, yeah.
	I mean, he was basically talking about, you know, look, at the end of the day, we need Putin gone.
	We need regime change in Russia.
	And there was other people saying the same thing, you know, leading up to the conflict and, you know, at the beginning of it.
	That Jew that runs the Council of Foreign Relations, Haas.
	Yeah.
	I don't know if he still does, but he doesn't.
	I think he's still the president.
	But he was out there on Twitter saying that, look, we're basically going for nothing short of regime change.
	Putin's got to go.
	And again, it's because he is openly exposing this corrupt, America-led world order.
	And it's hard not to see the parallels with a lot of the criticisms that Hitler was making in the 1930s.
	Yeah, you know, John, yeah, I mean, you mentioned the good Austrian corporal there.
	When you read, when you take the time to read Putin's speeches, his manifesto on Ukraine, I don't think I'm coping or projecting to see that there is a sort of Russian-style element of blood and soil and pan-Slavic racial solidarity there that reminded me of Mein Kampf.
	Sure, it's not Western.
	Sure, we maybe wish it were Germanic or whatever, but it's there.
	I think it's unmistakable, and that a lot of our guys are just doing this really bad thing where it's like, oh, here's a picture of Putin at the whaling wall.
	Here's a picture of a Russian oligarch who has a yacht.
	And it's like, yeah, that looks bad.
	That's good.
	Or, you know, it's an inconvenient truth.
	It induces some cognitive dissonance.
	But look, I mean, listen, when this first broke out, I'll cash in some clout here.
	When everybody was saying, oh, no, the West is just spinning this up.
	They're not going to invade.
	This is just Putin trying to flex to get concessions.
	I said a month before and two weeks before, I said, no, this time feels different.
	I think they're going in.
	I think this is going to be big.
	And it was.
	And what's more important is the response of the West and Russia's behavior to date has done nothing but reinforce the fact that they are acting with principle and they are being restrained insofar as they could.
	Now they've had to accelerate a lot because there has been more Ukrainian resistance than expected, no doubt fueled by all the weapons the West has been shipping in and eight years at least of propaganda that they've been whipped into.
	But the sanctions, the Jews starting to flee Russia or cry, uncle, all point to the fact that, yeah, this is not simply two sides of the same shekel.
	This is not Zog West versus Zog East.
	This is a very real clash of systems on the world stage that could well end up being net net good for Europe, good for the West in striking a blow against our slavers, frankly.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	No, I agree.
	Very well said, coach.
	Thank you, brother.
	Yeah, no problem, man.
	We'll go ahead and go ahead and wrap it up with that.
	I really appreciate you taking the time, man.
	It's something long overdue, a conversation long overdue.
	Yes, sir.
	And yeah, definitely keep up the good work over on Full House.
	I'll have a link over to your website once I post the podcast.
	And yeah, we'll stay in touch.
	We'll do this again.
	Amen.
	Thanks.
	And we'd love to have you on Full House, too.
	If you want to talk fatherhood in a world gone mad, too, consider that an open invitation anytime, brother.
	Thanks for all you do.
	Sounds good, buddy.
	Okay.
	Take care.
	Have a good night, man.
	You too.
	Okay.
