=== Visiting Vilnius' KGB Museum (06:09) ===

[00:00:03]  Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
[00:00:07]  Two years ago, I visited Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania.
[00:00:12]  It's a beautiful city, although it lacks the diversity Americans are supposed to celebrate.
[00:00:18]  During the Second World War, in 1940, the Soviet Union invaded and occupied Lithuania, which regained its independence only in 1991.
[00:00:30]  While I was in the country, I visited the Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights, better known as the KGB Museum because it's in the former KGB headquarters.
[00:00:41]  It is a somber memorial to 50 years of tyranny, and parts of the building are just as they were under the occupation.
[00:00:50]  Here are two holding cells, not even the size of phone booths, where dissidents were held in complete darkness.
[00:00:58]  For days at a time.
[00:01:00]  This is the door to long-term cell number four.
[00:01:04]  You can see the bed through the trap door for delivering food.
[00:01:08]  Here is a KGB interrogator's desk.
[00:01:12]  The Soviets executed more than 1,000 people in the basement of this building.
[00:01:18]  But the museum is also a tribute to Lithuanians who fought for freedom.
[00:01:23]  Known as the Forest Brothers, they hid out.
[00:01:26]  And fought the Soviets for nine years before they were finally crushed.
[00:01:31]  Women were essential to the struggle, in which an estimated 30,000 partisans died.
[00:01:37]  Here is a woman being decorated for her service to her country.
[00:01:42]  The Forrest brothers always hoped for aid from the West, but it never came.
[00:01:48]  They fought on alone.
[00:01:51]  The museum now stands as a warning of a terrible time that must never be repeated and a monument to the courageous men and women who fought to preserve a wonderful heritage.
[00:02:02]  Like the Lithuanians, we are living through a dark time.
[00:02:06]  Our country is consumed by madness.
[00:02:09]  As I've said before, we are in a period of mass delusion of historic proportions.
[00:02:16]  It is as divorced from reality as the Dutch tulip mania of the 17th century when a single tulip bulb sold for ten times the income of a skilled artisan and then cracked.
[00:02:30]  Even more to the point, it is like the Salem witch trials, in which wild accusations brought ruin.
[00:02:37]  I'm talking, of course, about today's racial dogma, in which everything has been stood on its head.
[00:02:45]  Washington and Columbus aren't heroes, they're villains.
[00:02:49]  Western civilization isn't a magnificent achievement.
[00:02:51]  It's a crime spree.
[00:02:54]  Math and music theory aren't objective analysis.
[00:02:58]  They're white supremacy.
[00:03:00]  Whites didn't build America.
[00:03:02]  Black slaves and Chinese coolies did.
[00:03:05]  Black or Hispanic ghettos aren't a plague.
[00:03:08]  They're the source of our white privilege.
[00:03:11]  All forms of mass hysteria eventually burn out.
[00:03:15]  The tulip bubble popped.
[00:03:17]  After four months, the people of Salem more or less came to their senses in about five months.
[00:03:23]  But don't forget, the Soviet Union was built on mass delusion, and it staggered on for more than 70 years.
[00:03:32]  I don't know when, but someday we will have our own version of the Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights, and it will have the same purpose.
[00:03:42]  It will remind us of our terrible nightmare.
[00:03:45]  And will be our solemn pledge never to make the same mistakes.
[00:03:49]  What will we call it?
[00:03:51]  The Museum of the Great Madness?
[00:03:53]  The House of European Renewal?
[00:03:56]  I don't know.
[00:03:57]  But there will be all kinds of exhibits.
[00:04:00]  Video clips of prominent Americans saying diversity is our greatest strength.
[00:04:06]  Newspaper descriptions of crime suspects that include height, color of clothing, make of getaway car.
[00:04:13]  But leave out one very important detail.
[00:04:17]  There'll be training materials for fourth graders that explain that whites are, by their very nature, oppressors.
[00:04:24]  There'll be photos of the statues of whites that were vandalized or came down to appease BLM rioters.
[00:04:31]  Maybe the tax returns of non-whites who made fortunes denouncing white privilege.
[00:04:38]  Also accounts of the astonishing power Private companies then had to squelch the truth and punish dissenters.
[00:04:47]  Tales of the terror that followed when anyone dared pronounce the heretical words, It's okay to be white.
[00:04:54]  And, of course, there will be an entire room dedicated to what became known as the Cult of the Adoration of the Negro.
[00:05:02]  Its patron saint was a holy and blameless man who died for the sins of all white people.
[00:05:10]  The day of his death became a feast day to rival Christmas.
[00:05:14]  Here, congressional leaders from that dark time bow their heads in adoration.
[00:05:21]  Maybe there will even be relics of the saint himself to remind future generations of the scale and intensity of the cult.
[00:05:29]  I believe it will be generally recognized that the 2020s were the worst years of the great madness.
[00:05:37]  I may not live to set foot in the museum, but some of you will.
[00:05:42]  You will take your children, and on the way home they will ask, Daddy, or maybe Mommy, Did white people really believe it was a wonderful thing to become outnumbered by blacks and Muslims and Guatemalans?
[00:05:57]  And you will answer, Yes, they did.

=== Among Those Who Fought (00:47) ===

[00:05:59]  Or if they didn't, they were too terrified to say so because of the great madness.
[00:06:05]  And then will come, The really tough question.
[00:06:09]  Daddy, did you ever go along with all that horrible stuff?
[00:06:13]  And may you, ladies and gentlemen, be among those who can truthfully say, no, I fought it with all my strength, and in my own small way, I helped bring about the wonderful world we live in today.
