The Looming Culture Of The Pedophile With Simon Esler
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Hey everybody, Jason Bermas here, and Simon Esler has been on the show before.
He is an accomplished documentary filmmaker.
In fact, you can go check out his film right now, Cut Daughters of the West on Vimeo.
I encourage you to do it.
Buy it. Spend the extra $2, have it around, show it to other people, maybe even throw it on a thumb drive and
hold a screening. These are the types of things we have to do to get this
information out there. However, he also has a new and very impressive article, The Looming Culture of the
Pedophile, which asks the question and I think in the end rightfully answers that question,
Can you cure A pedophile? I mean, should we even try to?
What are the taboos surrounding this?
And if you can't, how many pedophiles are we actually dealing with in this culture where that culture is ever more present?
So Simon Esler, thank you so much for joining us.
Give my audience a little bit of a background on why you chose this topic.
Well, I've been looking at the normalization of pedophilia from the perspective of warfare, because I really wanted to understand, you know, if there is this normalization of pedophilia, what kind of warfare is being used?
And can it be compared to forms of warfare that we're already relatively familiar with?
So, for example, the way that critical race theory was attached on to the civil rights movement.
And then you can see You know, in subsequent years, the way that gender ideology and queer theory came out of the same-sex rights movement.
And I started to look at this from a more academic perspective because it seemed like there is always these academic pushes To install a kind of radical ideology, to normalize things, to change the structure of our society.
And so I was digging around to see what is there that's comparable to those other operations.
And I got into the weeds.
And as usual, when you get into the weeds of their spaces, you start to see what they're up to and what kind of narratives they're pushing and where they're going to get people caught so that they can Basically coerce them into sustaining their new agenda and that's really what promoted my desire to dig deep into this.
And of course I'm on the tip of the spear in terms of where I am in the world.
There is a lot of academia going on here in Canada that is specifically focused on The normalization of pedophilia.
And I think it's important that people understand, as per usual, the way the two sides are being played against each other, the way the left and the right are being used against each other and how that division might not serve us if we're really wanting to stand up for the kids.
It's not a right or left issue.
It is amongst those that are the most hardcore, in my opinion, of right and wrong issues.
And I think for me, I came across the idea, and all of a sudden I was questioning things, of...
The marginalization of pedophilia.
I'd say a teenager when it started to come out that the Catholic Church, for instance, had covered up basically large-scale pedophile rings and moved around these individuals that had literally abused children for decades.
Now, just from obviously growing up in what I would call a normal home, mother, father, even though they were divorced, those values that you don't hurt children, especially sexually.
I mean, there's a bad touch, and there's your private parts, and there's your private space, and these secrets that people ask you, adults ask you to keep a secret that's a bad thing.
All those things were instilled in me at a very young age.
And I thought to myself, why aren't these people going to prison forever?
Because I was thinking, well, if you rape a woman, you could do a lot of time.
It was pretty evident, even though the case was actually a fake one, the Tawana Brawley case, which was basically the rape of a teenager.
These guys were looking at a long time.
I'm like, why is it these people aren't going to jail?
And then, as you start to learn more and more about the power structure...
Not just the Catholic Church, but a vast amount of institutions that have access to children.
This is endemic and systematic.
You want to talk about actual systematic things.
It's this culture in which there are a class of people amongst the others of these pedophiles in that network that are basically untouchable.
And it's not just... I mean, that's where the alarm bells start to go off.
And you actually talk about one of those networks specifically being Epstein, probably the most famous amongst them.
Yeah, I mean, we are looking at a sort of evolution of the culture of pedophilia, right?
Because you have these powerful groups that have been protected and have been allowed to operate this way, they have developed a culture amongst themselves that It helps share their ideals and helps them explore this as a lifestyle together.
And I think this is really important for people to understand because it points to a lot of the nuances that are ongoing in the development of this.
You know, when we look at Epstein and the fact that he was simply allowed, he was just allowed in these circles, it wasn't taboo to them.
It wasn't an issue that they were mingling, that all these powerful people were mingling with this convicted rapist, right?
I mean, he raped minors, this was known.
But I think the reason it wasn't an issue was because this was part of their culture.
And this is what we're looking at is the development of the culture of the pedophile.
But as I get into the article, we're looking at more than that, because in many instances, what we're looking at is psychopathy.
And not just pedophilia, and that distinction I think is going to become increasingly important as this issue gets pushed more into the limelight.
You know, that's one of my favorite things about this article.
It continually asks the question, are these psychopaths?
Are these people sociopaths?
Is there some kind of treatment?
For those that, you know, of these 60 million that do not act on their thoughts and wants by
watching child pornography or hurting a child, is there something that can be done to redeem them?
Those are the hardcore questions that you're asking and you ask them through baseline
statistics and I also think basic logic. And one of the things that you talked about
specifically, of course, was Tucker Carlson and the need for taboos.
Could you go into that for a moment?
You know... We're looking at this shift in taboos that Tucker Carlson just articulates beautifully, that it's suddenly really not taboo for someone to be a convicted child rapist, that it's not a big deal.
We have lots of people who are defended You know, one of the examples that Tucker Carlson gave was, you know, Kyle Rittenhouse was defending himself against someone who was convicted of abusing children.
This was not an issue, right?
It was not an issue for the people on the left and in the mainstream media who were trying to defend this man.
That is, that's the dissolution of our taboos.
But those are important taboos.
And I think that's what we're struggling with right now.
You have this attempt to normalize pedophilia.
And this is tricky because we should not be normalizing pedophilia, and yet we do seem to have a problem where there is quite a lot of pedophiles in the world, and there does need to be some level of destigmatization if we are going to get them help.
We don't want them walking around on the verge of offending, right?
Of course, we don't want that.
You do seem to have a lot of pedophiles who are out there struggling with an actual mental illness.
And I think, you know, Tucker Carlson really hits the nail on the head that we need to defend our taboos.
And that is, I think, the work we're going to be called to do increasingly, because I do think this agenda is really ramping up.
But we're going to have to confront the sheer number of pedophiles that are actually in the world and figure out how we're going to manage those statistics.
And I'll tell you what, I was alarmed by your statistics.
I didn't like the numbers that I saw.
For those that don't know, spoiler alert, I encourage everybody to, again, go to the substack simonesler.substack.com and check this out, the looming culture of the pedophile.
But in it, you discuss, basically, some people go as low as 1% to 2%.
Some people say up to 5%.
You feel that 5% could possibly even be conservative.
But when we talk about 5%, you're talking about 1 out of 20 in the room.
1 out of 20 on the bus, on the plane, in the grocery store, everywhere.
And you don't want to believe that's true.
However... This is what I encourage people to do.
I have an app on my phone.
I even bought it.
I did the paid one. And you can literally geolocate yourself to see how many sex offenders are around.
Let's see. I think I have it on this phone.
Yep, there it is. So we're just going to do search by current location here.
And let's see.
There we go. And that's the red dot.
And all those red dots pop up.
There you go. And this is just your home.
Now let's squeeze it on out.
Now let's consolidate a little more.
It's pretty wild. And I'll admit, I'm in more of a city-slash-urban area.
It doesn't look like it's filling out there.
But folks, there's no...
Yeah, that's a lot.
I mean, I'm in the Quad Cities.
I'm on the border...
We're a satellite city of Chicago, for sure.
That may have something to do with it.
But when I was in upstate New York, and these seemingly safe environments for the most part, the same thing continually happens.
And it can surprise you who these people are.
One of the things that I took away, for instance, I'm not sure if you watched it, but The Clown and the Candyman, which talked about the John Wayne Gacy murders and their connection to a larger ring with Dean Carroll.
They had the investigators who basically came in, found this ring, Found a lot of the CP, had eyewitnesses, and they said, look, a pedophile doesn't look like anybody.
It can be anybody.
You don't know what these people look like or how they act.
And those are key traits when we are talking about sociopathy and psychopathy, Simon.
Yeah, this is really important to understand here that, you know, that map that you just showed, that's the people who offended and were caught, right?
So then you have to add on to that the people who are offending and not getting caught.
And then you also have all the non-offending pedophiles, right?
All the people struggling with this mental illness that have yet to act on it, who do need the help.
And I think the big distinguishment that I've come to understand in researching this We're good to go.
However, you have to consider what people normally imagine when they hear the word pedophile.
Normally people, when they hear the word pedophile, they automatically think abuser.
So they think someone who has offended.
Right away, that's where people's minds go.
But their minds also go towards someone who is enjoying the destruction of that child's innocence, who is seeking To have the child suffer, which really that starts to get into the psychopathy and the sociopathy, which is a different and you could have that as a condition alongside pedophilia, but it is to be distinguished.
And I think we want to distinguish that because it looks to me like a lot of the people in power that we're dealing with, who are Potentially child abusers, I think we're dealing with a lot of psychopathy and not just this condition of persistent sexual thoughts about children.
And unfortunately, for people that don't understand what that means, that eventually means the death of that child in most cases.
We're talking about turning to murder, whether it just be the fear of getting caught or, like you're implying, the enjoyment and the suffering of these children.
And I would argue that absolutely 100% exists.
Again, Has been marginalized in our culture to almost non-existent, to fantastical claims, especially when they are exposed amongst the upper echelons of people in power, people in those power suits, the authoritative sources, before we had them censoring us on the internet.
That man's a senator.
That man's a businessman.
That's our president.
He's a prime minister.
Jimmy Savile's a good guy.
I like his show.
All those things have been now occurring for decades.
The veil slowly being lifted.
But what we're not seeing is not only the accountability for the past and, I would argue, a lot of the present.
Although, you know, you mentioned Epstein.
Today, another $290 million payout from J.P. Morgan as the latest case still looms with the Virgin Islands.
So this is a separate case.
People are starting to pay out because they don't want to testify.
They realize the emails are there.
They realize that this network's been exposed.
They realize they're on record joking about these things that we're now talking about.
But the question is, how do we not only get that accountability I'm talking about, but restructure a system where if they do offend and hurt a child, it's basically life in prison?
Because really, at the end of the day, what I found in the conclusion of your article, again, sorry, spoiler alert, I still encourage everybody to read the whole thing, Is that they're not redeemable.
There doesn't seem to be some kind of a magical treatment for these people.
So we need to hang on to the taboo that these are of the most destructive and evil entities on the planet because they want to rob your child of their innocence and we know statistically it's the kids that are abused that are more than likely to go on and become these low-level abusers themselves.
You know, I think one of the most dangerous things that's going on with what I found in the evolution of this narrative from this sort of academic perspective is that they're trying to push pedophilia as a sexual orientation.
Okay, so they really want to try to put it right up there with homosexuality based on We have studies that say the pedophile is born with a unique brain and it's not their fault.
They're just born with this orientation.
The biggest danger there is not really just that it will enable more child abuse, but that it will actually allow the psychopaths, the true psychopaths, to hide Under the civil rights protection of a sexual orientation, that's what scares me, is people who may or may not have pedophilia who can then identify as pedophiles, but they're really just psychopaths who enjoy hurting children.
That, to me, is a big part of what seems to be going on.
And you have, you know, there's a researcher named James Cantor who, the CBC, here in Canada, this is Publicly funded media.
In 2016, they created a documentary called iPedophile.
Now, I use the word documentary here lightly because it really is just a propaganda piece, entirely uplifting Cantor's work.
He did a study where he found that a lot of the pedophiles have grain matter that is different.
They are left-handed.
I think 30% of them are left-handed, which he states is really only common in two other groups, which is schizophrenics and autistic people.
So he found all these things that he claims are biomarkers.
What's confusing is that his theory is that there's some kind of damage that may have occurred in the womb to cause an actual biological condition, which maybe, I don't know, but to then go and say that someone who has actual damage to their brain that is causing them to think of children this way should be held at the same level as everyone else with an orientation, To me is absolutely irresponsible, but this is what's being pushed and the CBC, you know, the Canadian taxpayers funded a pro pedophile documentary that just seeks to create sympathy for the pedophile, the struggle of the pedophile and seeks to uplift.
The research of just this one researcher without including any dissent, without including any of the research that challenges his ideas.
And that, of course, to me, is just propaganda.
But it is also evidence that they have been building this narrative for a long time.
And there will be a push, a big push very soon, to state that pedophilia is a valid sexual orientation and should be recognized as such in the DSM. That is coming, in my opinion.
Well, I'll tell you what, you already talked about some of that validation via that documentary and the fact that this individual is giving a child doll to have sex with as though that's something that should be used as an encouragement or solution.
I think that is grotesque and that is not in any way shape or form helping the problem or that
individual just putting them more in a Demented and distorted state of wanting to abuse a child
and as far as the rebranding as a sexual orientation the term map now has been around for at least
five or six years in the social media realms as Again trying to you know, they're not a pedophile. They're
not a beauty They're just kind of attracted to kids their minor
attracted persons, you know, because it's not a boy or a girl anymore
You're not a man or a woman anymore.
No, no, no. There's a spectrum.
And you can identify as non-binary or whatever you like, whatever the flavor of the week is.
And you can supersede your biology.
And again, through that ideal set.
and that orientation it really gives you carte blanche to abuse anybody sexually and say that this is somehow a consensual relationship or something that is inbuilt and you notice with the transgender agenda you start giving autonomy over children around six or seven when they have autonomy not even of their own selves and taking away the rights of the parents and you really have a perfect storm You talked about an experiment, but really a eugenics-based, transhumanist experiment in creating a whole new type of species or subspecies within human beings, Simon.
Yeah, you know, it is pretty scary what they're doing.
And there's a lot of academia that I'm digging around in right now, a lot that I didn't even include in the article because I'm building a much bigger case for a documentary that I'm working on.
But some of the academia that is taking this the furthest is talking about ending the child-adult binary.
Right. And of course, this is the same Marxist sort of reconstructionist thought, right?
That the adult child binary needs to be deconstructed, that it actually harms children.
They are stating that the concept of childhood innocence Uplifts white supremacy, that the concept of childhood innocence is a made-up tool of the right and of corporations like Disney and that that needs to be deconstructed.
They are creating all of the ideological constructs that they need to literally say that childhood innocence needs to go.
It's oppressive to the child and that the child adult binary needs to go, that that's oppressive to the child.
All of that magically feeds into this notion of the minor attracted person.
And of course, this transhumanist push because, you know, once you get deep into transhumanism, they don't want to focus on age either.
There's just nothing. Everything is devoid of meaning.
Identity is completely fluid at all ages.
And that is where they're trying to take it.
And it's, you know, The design of the school system right now is to stop children from their ability to learn and to perpetually just see the world through the eyes of whatever oppressed victim identity they're being handed.
And that can be rotated at any time.
They can be given the trans thing.
They can be given, you know, the fat phobia stuff.
They can be given the CRT stuff.
All of that. It's just like a plug and play.
And this is what they're doing to children's minds so that they cannot function correctly and so that they help usher in this whole transhumanist dystopia.
Well, you talked about the non-binary, especially, and this idea of separating what I would call the traditional nuclear family.
And I think another part of this is also to separate that bond of human beings really together.
Because if you don't have a bond with the boys, and don't get me wrong, there's going to be anomalies, there's Going to be outliers or that bond with the girls where you're basically together and you're forming your little mini tribes and mores in your development.
You're constantly being bombarded with.
That doesn't really exist anymore.
Little boys can be girls.
Little girls can be boys, etc.
All this stuff. Then you're already losing a part of your humanity and your identity.
Especially with this bombardment of now, Billy was a girl, but now he's a boy again.
He's not wearing the dress this week.
I actually saw this in my upstate New York town.
Literally, they had an 8-year-old kid in a dress.
And then one day he didn't like the dress anymore and everybody had to dance around it because they'd already passed the bathroom laws.
This shows, you know, you talk about the push now, but this shows the incrementalism that we've allowed to encroach on us to the point where New York State and now the mayor is bragging about how they're going to allow gender-affirming care.
And the Biden administration is...
Gender-affirming care for everybody.
Bigotry and hate have no place here.
That brings me back to this is white supremacy.
Now if you call these things out for what they are, and you simply stand up for humanity and children, you're a bigot.
You know, you're a racist.
Like you said, you're a white supremacist.
Doesn't matter if you're white or not.
And that's the real trick of this.
If you say, hey, no, I'm just hoping that we can hold on to our humanity.
Like, I might want to be with a Spanish girl or an Asian girl or a black girl.
It doesn't matter to me. Or a man.
Whatever. I just want to be a human being as an adult.
No, that's not allowed anymore unless you're for the state allowing your child to have full autonomy over their biology and genetics.
But it's not full autonomy because they're constantly being influenced, right?
And they act like there is no influence.
And this is the one thing that is totally and completely inherent.
Like, trends didn't exist.
Like, little boys didn't want to be cowboys.
And... Police officers and astronauts and little girls didn't want to be princesses, right?
And all these other things culturally for so long.
That never was influence. Of course it was.
And then you have the social media people that are pushing it, and they're literally called influencers.
And the Jedi mind trick is, there's no influence.
This is inherent influence. You're being a bigot.
You're oppressing that child's human and civil rights.
And the truth is, these people are anything but promoting human or civil rights.
They're taking their humanity away, Simon.
Yeah, absolutely. In a lot of this academia, they talk about trying to make the child into a valid political being.
To do that, you have to remove the concept of childhood innocence so that they can't be manipulated and that they become this valid political being and all of this nonsense.
You know, we have a situation now where, as I talk about in the article, you have potentially 60 million pedophiles on Earth, you know, maybe more, but you do have millions and millions of pedophiles.
And a lot of them are pedophiles that are struggling.
let's say you have a portion of them is these non-offending pedophiles who have this mental
illness, who are struggling with their mental illness, and they are in a position where maybe
they could be helped into not offending, right? Maybe they could get access to some kind of care
that can steer them away from offending, but at the same time, they are now surrounded with all
these circumstances that are increasingly sexualizing children. What a perfect storm
to have all these... And affirming their behavior.
And affirming their behavior.
Exactly. And there's nothing more dangerous than that.
So you have researchers like Cantor trying to say that these pedophiles need to be acknowledged as having a sexual orientation that they can't change.
So you have that coming from these big academic sources.
While the media is filled with sexualized children, while Instagram is being caught pimping children sexually to adults, Openly giving users the option to look at child sex abuse content, like you can click through and allow it.
So this perfect storm is really to present to all these pedophiles, because we have a lot of them, all of this tempting content, all of this sexualized Content of children.
And it is so extremely dangerous.
But it's also why I think we need to recognize, you know, what do we have in place to help the men who haven't offended yet?
How are we working to stop them from getting to that point of offending?
What are we doing? And, you know, this is where we get into the weeds of this whole thing.
It was like, you know, I bring up a researcher named Fedorov in the article who recently died.
And that was one of his goals.
He was trying to work with pedophiles, a lot of them non-offending, trying to help them to develop healthy sexual interests.
Now, again, these were men who desperately did not want this condition.
So they were not dealing with any kind of psychopathy or the enjoyment of a child suffering.
These were men who really wanted help and have opened these, you know, there's a lot of testimonials for Fedorov's work saying that they genuinely were helped.
We do want to look at how are we going to do this?
How are we going to get all these? I have a quick question for you.
I'm just curious. In that study, was it revealed whether or not those men were the victims of sexual abuse prior to that?
You know, because that's, I think, a stepping stone.
Like, we have to look at that because, like I said, the vast majority are basically generational offenders because, you know, we have to acknowledge this.
There is a certain aspect of pleasure through, you know, sexual relationships.
And some of these victims take to that and then eventually develop into the abusers themselves because it's been so normalized in them.
So I wonder, you know, if those people that are maybe struggling with that have that.
I mean, it's certainly something that if it happens to you and maybe even at a later age, not, you know, as a five-year-old or an eight-year-old, maybe a 14 or 16-year-old where you think to yourself, maybe I should have known better, you know, obviously you can put yourself in a repressive state.
So I would just be interested in that, especially, you know, if...
The more times you were abused, the less likely you were to be reformed.
I think that's a study that needs to be done out there, Simon.
You know, there have been some studies on this, and I've been digging around looking for this.
Interestingly, what I found was that there is more of a connection, it seems, between the psychopathy and the sociopathy and child abuse and early trauma than there is the persistent sexual thoughts about children that in...
The way they describe it in the medical circles and in the DSM is really it starts at adolescence.
So when they start to develop sexually, they start to have these thoughts about prepubescent children that they can't get rid of.
Versus the people who are abused early in life, there is actually a greater connection to them becoming psychopaths.
Which I think is really interesting because when we look at the generational abuse that is occurring in families that use ritual abuse to keep certain bloodlines of knowledge and mind control alive, we are looking at actually the continuous development of psychopaths.
Who they're not clinically just pedophiles in the sense that they struggle with persistent sexual thoughts about children.
They are psychopaths in that they enjoy the suffering of children.
And that's, you know, when we look into the culture, you know, this is a lot of what's in the article that when we look into The culture that's coming out of like, you know, Fashion Gate and Balenciaga Gate, and you look into Lotta Volkova and some of these big names in that fashion industry, they're focused a lot, not just on the sexualization of children, suffering, the actual suffering of children.
And they seem to get some kind of enjoyment in exploring the concept of the suffering child.
And Lotta Volkova was on record talking about, I think, pretty openly about her childhood abuse.
And so to me, I wonder more about that, about the creation of cycles of psychopaths from this early abuse.
And I think that's what we need to be looking for, especially in these big elite circles who seem to be tied up in these massive pedophilia rings, which are rings of psychopaths, I believe.
Well, you know, talking about this recent ring that was uncovered, it's really not news that social media networks, including YouTube, including Facebook, all have these backdoor networks where pedophiles gather and use code words.
They're on forums, message boards, Reddit, you name it.
If you want to be part of that culture, it's not that hard to find.
And yet there hasn't been a large-scale regulation, except for when they want to shut other speech down, by the
way.
They always use that as the excuse.
And obviously, when you look at something not only like Balenciaga, but you look at, like you said, this destructive BDSM,
sociopathic way of thinking, and then you look at Target, and they have the Tuck-friendly line for kids.
and then you find out the person who's Tuck-friendly is actually a Satanist.
Now, I don't know all of his beliefs.
I do know that even if you don't believe in a devil or a god or Satan himself, I do know that Satanism is a very self-serving, do-as-that-will So those two things really reflect on a higher level how it's not only an agenda, it's now a corporate agenda even in line with something like ESG. This is the new equitable societal goal of Of blurring the lines so badly that basically you say or do anything against the agenda and the state.
You're a bigot. You're a white supremacist.
And right now they might not be able to criminally come after you.
But that could change quickly.
And people are already being canceled.
For instance, I don't know if you saw the story about Call of Duty this week.
But you had an individual...
Who has his own Call of Duty pack because he's a gamer and I believe he's an ex-military guy.
So they're like, hey, this is a great fit.
We're going to do dick-a-dick-a-doo.
You're going to buy the pack? He said, literally, I mean, nothing bad.
He says, why can't we just leave the kids alone when there was a video that showed a brawl outside of a children's school amongst...
The LGBTQAILMNOPO crowd and other people.
He just said, he didn't say anything about it other than, hey, you think we can just leave the kids alone?
Done. Financially done on that deal.
Goodbye. Later. And that's expanding at a rapid pace.
And with this agenda to normalize the situation, to rebrand it, that's a very scary scenario, Simon.
You know, it's interesting, you bring up the satanic element of this, and I've been looking into this very closely because there is seemingly nothing that triggers the censorship and the pushback more than the mention of satanic pedophilia, this idea of satanic ritual abuse.
I was experimenting with this because I just found this bias to be so incredibly strong as if we're looking at psychological warfare and we're looking at compromised media and there is nothing they defend more vehemently than the idea that there is no satanic pedophile agenda, that there is no satanic ritual abuse.
The pushback against that is absolutely immense.
And so I wanted to experiment with this.
I started asking this AI, it was one of the ChatGPT apps, about this, because I wanted to see the bias in action.
So I brought up satanic pedophilia, and its first response was, this is a conspiracy theory.
This does not exist.
It never happens. Then I brought up cases, actual cases, where people were convicted of using Satanism to ritually abuse children.
And it had to admit that the cases were real, but then double back and say, there's still no large networks.
There's no large scale issue with this.
We have to be very careful bringing up this issue because there's too many conspiracy theories.
So I was looking into a researcher named Valerie Sinison.
She's actually, I believe she's a psychologist.
She has been working with victims of satanic ritual abuse and the dissociative states that it causes.
And of course, the pushback against her has been so strong because she basically got targeted because she was just sharing the actual testimonies of her patients In satanic ritual abuse scenarios, she was just bringing forward what her patients had shared in the sessions, so of course they went after her.
And she has a really great way of looking at this, basically.
She makes this joke that, I guess we should all become satanists.
Because apparently that is the only religion where there is no child abuse ever.
It's impossible, right?
Because we can see it's happening in all the other religions, but for some reason, not in Satanism.
It's very, very curious.
So I think, you know, this is one of the biggest things to fight back against.
And it's tricky because of how much it triggers this whole media complex.
But... The idea of Satanism and child abuse ever being put together is, there's a huge pushback, but we have an opportunity with things like Balenciagagate, because you did have the merger of those things, and that woke a lot of people up.
You know, when they changed that, the spelling of Balenciaga to Baal, and brought up an actual Canaanite god of child sacrifice, and then put children with BDSM teddy bears, you're really dealing with the conflation of Satanism and pedophilia overtly, and I think that does need to be exposed.
And we've seen The paperwork of famous pedophile cases.
I mean, you want to slam dunk the mother trucker.
It's right there. I mean, no doubt about it in your face.
And look, man, when I started out doing this stuff, you know, it's been almost 20 years since I've been doing it professionally.
But when I started looking into 9-11, maybe six months after, and I'm hearing New World Order, come on.
That's something I heard in church.
That's wacky. I'm hearing Satanists.
Come on, man. That's just the kid that's not getting laid in high school and has the eye makeup on.
What are you talking about? It's not real.
And then... Basically, the internet hits to where I can start to read the actual documentation of how dark my government is, and I can read the MKUltra documents, and I can understand.
Wait a minute, they pimped kids, basically, on the coastlines with, what is it, Operation Climax or something?
Yeah, Climax something. I forget what it was, but, you know, they're running teenage brothels back in the day.
They're involved in all this thing.
Oh, chaos now.
With Charlie Manson?
Oh, the Franklin scandal's real?
You know, it's not just John DeCamp, but Nick Bryant writes a follow-up, finds more victims, shows you the handwritten documentation of the abuse of the children?
Come on now.
And then, like you said, there is this great narrative that's not only being pushed by the establishment now, they're pushing it with the quote-unquote AI, which is clearly run by the establishment, which is scary enough.
You know, earlier in my broadcast today, I played Yoval Noah Harari.
Speaking in Lisbon, Portugal recently.
He just happened to be in Lisbon, Portugal, by the way, when Bilderberg was there.
Not on the list! Just happened to fly in that Thursday.
Just weird, I'm just saying.
Anyway, he starts talking about the YouTube algorithms and basically why they're bad and
they fed hate and disinformation and conspiracy theories.
And what example does he use right off the bat? He talks about 9-11. You could be starting by
watching a perfectly good CNN 9-11 video, and within two or three clicks, you have the craziest
conspiracy ever.
Well, that's not artificial intelligence.
That's data sets that are run via algorithms that are programmed by human beings that are deceiving a populace.
And when the science is settled they'll have your child's genitalia cut off and you have absolutely no right to do so.
That's the direction This is headed.
Even more nightmarish in some scenarios, you would never allow that to happen, but your child somehow gets abused and the abuser just can't be brought to justice.
In fact, if you want a vigilante style, you'll probably have a mandated sentence.
There might not even be a trial for you.
Oh, you did that in retaliation to somebody who sexually identifies as a pedophile?
Life in prison. That's the upside-down world that we're currently heading towards, Simon.
You know, the researcher named Fedorov, he was running this clinic to help pedophiles shift their sexual interests and, you know, relatively successful, actually, in the field, if you look at the whole field.
And then, basically, his arch enemy is this other researcher, Kanter, who's the one who's promoting that pedophiles should be given these child-sized dolls to masturbate with.
And Cantor, he finds Fedorov's attempts to help these men become less dangerous and to move them away from offending by helping them develop healthy sexual interests.
He says that gives him the heebie-jeebies because he compares it to conversion therapy.
And so you have this narrative going on now where it's like, and, you know, this guy is going to be lifted up very soon.
I'm sure this Cantor guy, like, I'm very creeped out by his work.
But, you know, this narrative that trying to change a pedophile's sexual interest is akin to conversion therapy.
Sending kids to Bible camp when they're gay and trying to make that comparison.
And you're right.
It does head in the direction of if you do anything to try to alter the sexual identity of the pedophile, this will be considered a crime.
And of course... Of course, this will make the prosecution of child abusers immensely difficult because if the pedophile gets civil rights status, then that whole system of trying to prosecute them for abusing a child is going to go out the window.
And again, I'll tell people to look back.
Look at the way that they did this.
You know, right back from the civil rights era, right through the same-sex rights era, and how they have now given trans people civil rights in Canada.
It's federal law.
Gender identity and gender expression is a human right here.
And so they have that civil rights status.
That changes everything.
That's how you got my old high school, Oakville Trafalgar.
You had the teacher with the Z-sized prosthetic breasts.
That was defended by the school because they didn't want to break the Canadian human rights laws.
These are the dangers of creating the pedophile as a sexual orientation narrative because that civil rights status will cause these very kinds of scenarios with child abuse being allowed.
So how do we move away from that direction? You know, you did that film cut Daughters of the West and
one of the big parts of that film is we've been just Assaulted indoctrinated as a culture as to what beauty is
influenced if you will to the point Where we obviously have large-scale
mental illness, especially in our young girls because of their appearance and what they should look like.
When you have somebody that already feels like an outsider and that there might be a new tribe, that is one of the large appeals of this conversion therapy, if you will.
You can be part of that group.
That's not acknowledged.
And a lot of people focus on the...
Boys becoming girls or men becoming women because of the sports aspect of it.
But the reality is that the young girls and the women are more susceptible.
Can you talk about that aspect, how that's going on en masse?
They actually outnumber the men, I think, something like three to one, sometimes four to one, which is alarming.
How do we explain that to people and how do we fight back culturally so that's not the case?
You know, that's a really interesting phenomenon because it in and of itself undoes this entire theory that gender is socially constructed.
Because you look at the impacts of social media and it impacts girls in a completely different way because girls are completely different than boys, right?
So right there, you have a very rock solid biological distinction that when you hand A preteen or teenage girl, a smartphone with social media, that is going to mess up her mind in a way that it will not mess up the boy's mind.
Not that boys aren't affected and that there aren't negative effects.
I do also believe that you should withhold social media and smartphones from middle school age boys as well.
But the distinction here is that it hurts girls' mental health In a very specific way, we have to know our children.
We have to know about how children move towards adulthood and what that really means.
And what does it mean for a girl versus a boy?
What does it mean for a girl to transition into a healthy adulthood and into womanhood?
And I think, culturally, we need to get a hold of this.
And one of the ways we can look at it is through things like rites of passage.
This is one of the things I believe we need to bring back.
The rite of passage for the child, for the teenager to move towards adulthood and using cultural containers like rites of passage to give them psychological stability to make that transition.
When you look at the ways that children are targeted, the ways that they're targeted in the schools right now, it is very ritualistic.
You know, James Lindsay talks about this in his book, The Marxification of Education.
He talks about how the theories of Paulo Freire are being used in our schools, and one of the tenets of those theories is that you use an actual kind of trauma to create an emotional disturbance in the child, and that emotional disturbance becomes a moment for programming.
There is literal attempts to use trauma to reprogram the child's worldview.
So number one, you get your kids out of the schools.
But I'm actually writing a book right now that is focused on giving parents the tools to develop rites of passage for their children, using the hero's journey as a structure, as a map to do that, because it's a good, strong structure that has actually been in all rites of passage throughout history.
I was very inspired to do this by what I saw happening to the girls.
The fact that girls are being disembodied.
They're surrounded by these rituals of disembodiment in smartphones, in social media.
Gender ideology itself is a disembodiment ritual.
If you look at the structure of the hero's journey, it is about being taken away from the familiar and into the new and into the strange and then being given the tools to transform yourself.
And then you become this new being and you take that identity Back into the world where you came from.
This is what they're doing with gender ideology to girls.
Very much so. They are indoctrinated into this new and strange world.
They are given a new identity, a new name, their new pronouns.
Then they are celebrated as they emerge in their new identity.
They're applauded by everyone online saying, you're so brave, you're so courageous.
That is the structure of a rite of passage.
So as parents and as people, cultural creators in the world, I believe we need to get back to creating rites of passage I think that's so important, right? You have to take children out of a comfort zone.
You can't continually give them what they want, number one.
You know, there has to be structure and discipline.
And then you talk about a hero's journey.
Let's give them some obstacles that...
You let them solve.
That's the ultimate puzzle solving.
And that is what you applaud.
That's what you give meaning to and say, hey, you did a good job there.
That wasn't easy. I saw how you struggled with it.
I saw how you were frustrated.
You have the conversations along the way.
Because what are you doing? You're building up somebody's self-worth, their pride, their self-esteem, their self-view.
And ultimately, who they are inside, which eventually their outside self will reflect, right?
Whether it be in their appearance or their attitude, which may become one and the same.
I've been very comfortable with myself for a very long time.
I'm very lucky in that respect.
A lot of people would look at what I do and say, Jesus, dude, you talk about the most dark shit all the time on a daily basis.
I'm now on the air literally...
Let's see, 8 hours a week plus 4, that's 12.
With the 2 hours, 14 plus hours, that's if I don't do somebody else's show.
I'm constantly researching this stuff.
You know a lot of it is gloom and doom.
But at the same time, I look at my own life, and I'm making decisions that are bringing me happiness.
I do not believe that ignorance is bliss.
In fact, I do believe that information is power.
Because when you know what the problem is...
Then you can figure out a solution, at least on an individual level.
And if other people want to listen, great.
Share that information. That's awesome.
But like you're talking about, I'm involved in my niece's lives, you know?
I'm making sure this summer that they're in volleyball camp.
My one niece got her first job.
I'm taking her to work for the first day tomorrow.
She just went to go get leggings.
I've tried to instill in them, even when there are obstacles, that actions have consequences.
This isn't forever.
Who are you going to be?
How are you going to act?
And one of the things that I think is important, we talked about those mores with boys hanging out with boys and girls hanging out with girls, but the idea of competitive events, sports, or academic activities are a big deal because when you're on a team, you're not going to like everybody.
That's also important to realize in life.
With this new projection, everybody's supposed to be happy all the time.
We can fix depression with a pill.
There's instant gratification with a like and a share.
But in reality, when you start getting around people, you realize, hey, the other person that's really good on the team, I fucking hate them.
But I like winning!
So we're going to work together.
We're going to figure it out.
And you get that competitive spirit.
You also kind of see the world as it is, not black and white, not set up for just you, but kind of like this interacting organism.
And I think you get a better idea of self-worth.
And if you have a family infrastructure that can promote that, that makes all the difference.
You know, I don't talk about it a lot, but I've talked about it recently.
Because I saw it. But I have, in my extended family, a family member that, basically at 16, they let, as a girl, begin to transition into a boy.
Masectomy and everything.
They just graduated from high school.
That person's not happy.
They're not smiling in any picture.
It hasn't solved any issue.
I've never seen that person smile on social media in these family photos.
So then I asked, was that the solution to the problem?
No. People have to realize that sometimes solutions, and most times when they're worth the biggest, they're not easy.
You're really going to have to dig down deep.
And it does help to have a support structure, especially when you're young.
But unfortunately, we've built a society of entitlement, of UBI sounds like a good thing, of dependence, of help, of victimhood.
And I think the best way that you can go about rejecting that is rejecting that within your inner circle and speaking that out as loudly as possible, Simon.
Absolutely. And you can get to know children deeply enough.
All of us are blessed with the opportunity of guiding some children in our community at different times.
You can get to know children deeply enough so that you can guide them with immense specificity.
So you can get beyond just Let me help this child understand the benefit of struggle and of failure and of difficulty.
But you can help that child find the correct struggle for them, right?
Like you can put them on a path of like, here, if you struggle with this, This will give you the most meaning.
And I think this is where we have a revolution of parenting that can occur is instead of, let's say, families in the past that maybe forced a child to work in the family business instead of going and starting their own business and becoming an entrepreneur, right?
And maybe not realizing that this child was more suited to become an entrepreneur than take over dad's business.
Now we're in a position where we can become so studious of who our children are that we can then be informed by their unique nature and say, look, Go and struggle with this because you have all these immense qualities and you have an opportunity to turn this struggle into meaning.
And I think, you know, adolescence is the perfect time for that.
This is why I believe that adolescents are targeted by all this warfare.
It is a time of great instability.
It's fucking hard to be a teenager.
It just is. It's a difficult time, but it is meant to be.
And it is meant to be a struggle that unpacks deep, deep meaning.
There's so much meaning there that is available for these children that if they are guided and supported in that struggle and finding that correct struggle for them, they will become very powerful.
In this world, and that's what we need to do.
This is that generational thinking that we need to be having.
The warfare that we're up against, it has this generational perspective.
It is far in the past that they began, and they are looking into what's going to happen in the next three generations.
This is the kind of work we can be doing.
If we create stability for one child, and they move through adolescence into adulthood with that great stability, that's rippling generations down the line.
It's giving immense power To an entire bloodline of human beings if we do this correctly.
And it's pro-humanity, brother.
And that's why I love having you on.
Because that's what it's all about.
SimonEssler.substack.com And again, you can get Cut Daughters of the West over on Vimeo.
Anything else you want my audience to know?
Well, I think if you sign up for the newsletter at daughtersofthewestfilm.com, that's actually where I'm going to be announcing this book that I'm creating that is a rite of passage workbook for parents to create this rite of passage according to the hero's journey for their children.
So, you know, go ahead and sign up at the newsletter there and I'll keep you in touch with that project because I think it's going to help a lot of people.
All right. Thank you so much, brother.
We really appreciate you and you're welcome back anytime.
