Henrik Palmgren — "A Future for Our People." (2022)
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Our next speaker, Henrik Palmgren, is really now quite a veteran of our movement.
He started Red Ice Independent Media Company in 2006, and he and his wife, Lana Laktev, are in the business of defending our heritage, our culture, and ensuring the future of white people all around the world.
Mr. Palmgren was born in Sweden, and so English, of course, is a second language to him.
But I'm always impressed with the eloquence with which he makes his case.
I think he is also one of the best interviewers in the business.
He really has a knack for asking the right questions and then following up with the right question after that.
Even some of the really high-powered, paid people don't have the knack he does.
We are very lucky that he has devoted his talents to our side rather than their side, and he will speak to us on a future for our people.
Edward Palmer.
Alright. Running a little bit low on time.
I've got a million slides to show you, so let's see how that goes.
So, let's talk about the future a little bit.
Things are about to change drastically.
You could argue, is it totally engineered?
Is it incompetent?
Why is it happening?
I think it's going to be a radically different three to five years.
Ahead than what you're used to right now.
Globalization, actually, is one of the first things that's going to go.
They talk about free trade, free flow of capital is one of the definitions of it, of course.
Much of it that we're concerned with, it's the free flow of people.
Just meat.
Move in the meat and just make more money.
That's what it's been.
So if this collapses, that's a good thing, to be honest.
The closest historical analogy I would be able to...
Grass fat is basically the late Bronze Age collapse, but it's nothing like what we have now.
It's completely different.
The dependency that we have on the whole industrial system, people are much worse equipped these days to handle basic things that they could do back then, so it's not really a good comparison, to be honest.
We don't know what this is going to be like, and bear with me here, because I'm going to lay some of these points up, and maybe I'm wrong, but...
I'm going to try to argue here that the difficult things ahead is actually something we could use to our advantage, something that's a plus for us.
Globalization's heyday, basically from the early 90s until basically 2020 when the COVID thing hit, everything changed at that point, and it's not going to go back to normal.
Collapse of the Soviet Union dumps a bunch of tons of minerals and resources on the global market.
China's on the rise.
We have Westerners, of course, turning their backs on us, going over to China, setting up shop over there.
That's an anomaly.
The globalization was an anomaly, historically speaking.
So right now, they're telling us we're about 8 billion people.
I don't know who's counting.
Of course, could be wrong.
I was concerned with overpopulation for a long time, and of course, that's still an issue.
And no one knows when it's going to plateau, maybe 9 billion, maybe 10 billion, we'll just have to see.
But the point is, it's actually depopulation that is the big concern right now.
If we look at some of the demographics charts, some of the bigger economies here, males on the right-hand side, females on the left-hand side, and America's actually in a fairly good position demographically, but that's also, you have to take into account, because of an out-of-control immigration policy.
The demographers, the economists basically tells us, just bring in the bodies.
Just bring in more meat and we'll do fine.
We can continue our debt-based economic system.
But as we know, quality matters, not just quantity.
The EU is in a very bad situation.
Japan is in a horrible situation.
And China is even worse.
No one even knows what's going to happen in China.
They're massive because of the one-child policy, but there's a number of other things that's happening to them right now as well.
Some people even speculate that they've over-calculated their population with as much as 100 million people.
But by 2050, they're going to be essentially halved.
They're not going to remain the factory of the world anymore, which means that we're going to have a vastly different economic system who's going to produce all the stuff.
And my point is, maybe more stuff is not what we need.
I mean, it's fun.
You can have your mold plastic in incredible shapes over in China and ship them over with Amazon in two days.
That's great, but of course we don't care about that.
Convenience, material convenience, of course, that's good, right?
But no, we've become atomized and isolated in a consumer society, and there's other things we need to focus on.
So the mainstream people, they look at a country like Nigeria, that has healthy demographics.
It's just more and more people.
A bigger generation precedes the former, right?
And that's why, for example, in the EU, they're talking about how Africa and Europe is going to have a close relationship in the future.
They basically just want to import all those people into Europe.
That will be a disaster.
But there's other things happening in Africa, too, that's tying into this picture of why we might not get that.
But we'll get to that.
The other point with integration as well.
At least in Europe, you could potentially argue that it's been a little bit better in America, but up to this point, now they're doing away with integration, and now you basically have enclaves inside of this country being formed by other groups.
But even in Europe, with terrorism and things like this, you actually have the second and the third generation that's most likely to commit terror.
So even if you have people growing up in the environment of a European country, they don't even know anything else.
Easier to deal with, ironically.
And the second and the third is even worse.
So that doesn't bode well.
For you guys here in the States, of course, you've imported a lot of cheap labor from Mexico, but even they are in decline demographically.
From 1960 up to 2020, they had 6.78 children per woman in Mexico.
Now they're just at replacement level right now.
So cheap labor is not even going to be available within...
A few decades.
No one knows exactly, of course, how these things go, but these are estimates.
While Mexicans are young, they are aging faster than Americans.
At some point in the mid-2050s, the average Mexican is highly likely to be older than the average American.
And so we don't know what that's going to mean in the future.
The economists, demographers have said, like, oh, we can just rely on South America and bring in a ton of people and stuff like that.
And that might still work, of course, for a few more years, but it's not going to last forever.
And as I said before, America is actually pretty good demographically, and there's still a good large portion of white people here.
And the baby boomers, they had kids.
The millennials, they had kids as well.
And this is just as a little fun side note here.
We know that there's maniacs like Mark Potok at the SPLC who are gleefully monitoring the decline of white population in America and in Europe, by the way.
Which means that it's not about just keeping the economy going and the debt-based system.
You know what I mean?
This is about replacing people.
In terms of the economy, there's another strand that's complicating the situation.
And again, you could argue this is intentional, but inflation is getting completely out of control.
In most countries right now, 80% of all U.S. dollars in existence were printed in the last 22 months, from $4 trillion in January 2020 to $20 trillion in October 2022.
Quantitative easing, they're calling that.
That's a suicide policy.
That's like when the Romans started clipping their coins.
That means the decline of a civilization right there.
And there is a lot of problems with the financial system and the banking system and all that stuff.
And the other thing is, of course, that people who are on the outskirts, on the margins, I don't necessarily like the term dissidents, but let's just make it easy and call them that for now.
We are being designed out of the system, essentially.
They're closing bank accounts on thought criminals and things like that.
I've had it happen to me.
There's other people in the room that I know this has happened to.
Financial censorship, this is a big one.
But even as the current system is set up, that's...
It's still kind of a minor issue to what's coming, and we'll get to that too.
Here's another graph in terms of what JP Morgan has been up to.
They have virtually attended all DHS, the Department of Homeland Security, meetings about federal government efforts to censor disinformation on social media.
So they are laying the foundations for debanking.
And you think it's bad now?
Just wait until they get into...
The digital dollar, we'll talk about that in a moment, but basically almost every executive agency in the U.S. have been weaponized or militarized, depending on what term you like.
IRS, obviously, we've learned that with these new agents that they're getting in there now, but Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, FBI, they're designing us out of the system.
And right now, one of the big topics on the financial scene is central bank digital currencies.
Intelligent money, or programmable money, basically you can tell the money, What you can do with it.
So if you have a person who's been just buying a little bit too much meat that one week and they went to the store, well, then the money is smart enough to know, no, we're not going to sell you that.
Or if you want to give money to another person, for example, it is not going to allow you to do that.
There's people at the Bank of International Settlements talking about this right now.
And the New York Federal Reserve just started a 12-week digital dollar pilot.
So that actually happened earlier this week.
So that's up and running.
We are being designed out of this system.
ESGs, World Economic Forums, their little pet project.
Environment, social, and governance.
This is from NASDAQ right here, but they're talking about diversity, how important that is.
Basically, this is a social credit score for your corporation, for your business.
If you have a little bit too many white people in your business, well, you're going to have a lowered ESG score and you're not going to be able to do business with other corporations.
Or you might not be granted that loan or whatever it is, right?
They're trying to police behavior and police certain things into the corporate structure.
Non-discrimination, gender diversity, blah, blah, blah.
And, of course, it's the usual suspects behind this to a large extent.
We know the names of some of them, but I think we have an ample amount of people behind the scenes that we don't have the names on, but yes, those who are talking about this openly.
That's the Klaus Schwab, the Larry Finks, the Bill Gates, the George Soros, etc., Bezos, right?
You can look at the Strategic Intelligence page on the World Economic Forum's website for more on the ESGs.
We just don't have the time to go into that right now, but it's very interesting and horrifying.
BlackRock, of course, is one of the main proponents of the ESG system.
They seem to...
I don't know why they just lined up and said, yeah, this is a great idea.
Let's do that.
It's almost like they pivoted from making money, just going over to, okay, let's have a whole new value system.
How we deal with money, how we make money, what it is, essentially.
And BlackRock is at the forefront of that.
They now manage over $10 trillion in assets.
And given another few years, they, together with Vanguard, managed $20 trillion.
They're the ones who are pushing this together with groups like the World Economic Forum and others.
Other insane thing that's happening right now too, I just want to make you aware of it, is something called natural asset companies or natural asset classes they're creating on the New York Stock Exchange.
Basically monetizing ecosystem services or nature in and of itself.
Instead of having, let's say, gold that you base your money or value on, they want to have nature itself.
And again, I don't have details to go into this, but this is just some of the ways that the business world, the economy, is being restructured right now.
Because again, demographically, they knew that this was coming.
They needed something to change the direction of it.
It's going to tank.
My argument is they're intentionally doing it.
They're driving us into the wall.
And I'm going to argue, at least a little bit later, I think that could be a good thing, actually, in a weird way.
We'll get to that.
The climate thing, of course, is weaved into this as well with the World Economic Forum, but essentially they're trying to create a new climate cult weaved into this as well.
Klaus Schwab talked about the great narrative recently when it was in, I think it was Saudi Arabia he was talking with them down there, but during the COP27 meeting that happened just recently, they had a prophetic call for climate justice and a ceremony of repentance in Sinai.
They're asking for, this is like an interfaith religious conglomerate that's like building up a new cult essentially around climate change.
Mount Sinai preparing to host Climate Summit, a new global religion.
Will God deliver ten commandments for climate change?
This is kind of written tongue-in-cheek a little bit, but the guy who wrote it, he was actually one of the guys heading up the whole Sinai kind of religious meeting that they had down there.
So the other thing they have with the climate thing, of course, is the green transition.
Let's use their terminology, right?
You're going to need certain things to be able to pull that off, and I don't think they're going to be able to pull that off, at least not short-term.
Total investments in global oil and gas have plummeted since 2014.
And, of course, you have to have these things in order to build these new structures.
You talk about automation, you're going to have robots doing everything.
It's going to be super cool, but it's like, okay, if you don't have oil and gas, and if you don't have the new...
Things in place to be able to pull this off.
You're not going to pull it off.
So this could be a disaster.
That's why they're asking for new investments.
It's critical.
Especially what's happening in Europe right now as well.
They're talking about LNG, a liquefied natural gas, to make up for the energy loss after Nord Stream, especially for Germany, but other countries in Europe as well.
And we don't know yet if they're going to pull that off.
It's a disaster.
Same thing here.
All the minerals that you need to do this, you know, the green transition and all these new wonderful technologies, you know, EV cars and all that stuff.
Russia is basically off the market for now.
So is Belarus for the most part.
And you could argue Ukraine as well, depending on how that war goes.
But Russia is a big supplier of many of these minerals.
If you cut that off or even the gas that you're using to ship all these things around to keep the globalized system running, you're not going to get any of this stuff.
But we know who did the Nord Stream attack, obviously, because they found the passport.
Russia's, of course, very motivated here in this case, right?
No, but Germany is an experiment, essentially, right now.
We don't even know.
Apparently, they've amassed enough gas for this autumn and winter, but when it could get real problematic for the Germans, especially, is in 2023.
We'll just have to see.
No one knows.
Are they going to be able to make up for that, or are they going to begin de-industrializing, like China, basically, is going to do as well?
A lot of unstable things happening on the geopolitical scene with globalization right now, and this could be a disaster.
So if you take Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine as one kind of economic region, natural gas are number one exporter in that, second crude oil, and that's off the market, all of these things right now.
How are we going to be able to make up for this, right?
Nuclear power plants have decommissioned them.
It's completely insane, right?
The other thing, of course, is...
The food situation, they are number one, if you take those three countries combined, in fertilizer, potash, and second in ammonia, which you need, of course, for the food production.
The Netherlands, they've just basically declared a war on emissions over there.
The Dutch government wants to reduce emissions by 50% by 2030.
They're going to war with nitrogen.
And why?
Well, partially because the Netherlands is the second largest agricultural exporter in the world after the United States.
If you cut that down, what do you think is going to happen then?
They have a super close relationship with the World Economic Forum as well.
They're going to be part of the Center for Global Food Innovation.
It's always like, we have this new wonderful way of doing things, but none of it is workable.
But let's decommission the whole system before we even have something new in place.
Again, incompetence?
Sure, maybe.
Or is it intentional?
That could be argued.
So there's Mark Rutte right in the center there, the Dutch PM, hanging out with some of the other globalist elites.
There was a kind of a brag recently by Klaus Schwab in terms of how weaved in he was with the Dutch parliament, and he sent them letters and basically said, because you're a...
Lining up to do the Great Reset with us, you're going to have a nice new role here in the coming new global trading system.
Who are you to decide, man?
Who asked you?
Completely unelected guys that are pushing this stuff.
Mark Rutte got a Global Citizen Award, too.
Wonderful. And as I said, Klaus Schwab recently bragged that we have penetrated the cabinets of most Western governments, so they're pushing this on the politicians who are just following suit on this.
Food insecurity, going back to the fertilizer issue, because again, if you lessen Netherlands' involvement, the US' involvement, catastrophic.
Countries in blue and green are net exporters, while countries in orange and red are net importers.
They're importing about 50% or more of their calorie intake from other parts of the world.
So if you have a collapse of the fertilizer industry and ammonia and all these things that you need, chemical fertilizers, What's going to happen?
Africa is in a very bad situation when it comes to that.
We'll come back to that to what it is.
If we look over here, South America, Brazil, nitrogen, phosphate, potash, not all of it comes from Russia and Ukraine and Belarus, but large chunks of it does.
What happens if you remove that from the global market?
We don't even know what's going to happen with that yet, so we'll just have to see.
That's why the UN food chief recently warned that we are knocking on famine's door.
The World Food Program, right?
East Africa and other areas of the world are now facing food shortages due to climate change.
I'm not sure I buy that, but that's what they're saying is one of the excuses, at least.
And Russia's war with Ukraine.
That's true, but obviously they're just seeking to kind of use Putin as the bad guy.
Oh, it's Putin's fault.
Why are we starving?
Putin's fault.
The World Food Program is experiencing funding shortages amid the prospect that many people will soon go hungry, they're warning about.
And this guy was, he belongs to kind of one of the Soros' group, essentially.
He dropped this on Twitter a couple of weeks ago.
He claims he attended a conference where, with influential financiers, shared this unpublished map.
The estimated death toll is two to three billion.
The time frame is 20 to 30 years.
No one knows this, of course, or how quick this would happen.
Segments of the elite have simply written off large parts of the global south.
Again, I'm not sure I'm buying that or if it's just propaganda to kind of set the stage of what might potentially happen because of very bad policies when it comes to fertilizer and things like that.
But keep in mind, if they do want to drive people from the global south into the northern hemisphere...
That's completely aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, where 10 of the 17 goals contains targets and indicators that are directly related to migration.
We know they want to replace us, but they're using all these other excuses.
So we have now King Charles III.
He's pushing this really hard.
He's one of the new climate messiahs.
They even converted his royal...
Emblem over to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal logo, whatever you want to call it, at the World Economic Forum.
You guys probably, all of you probably know about the Great Reset now.
This is mainstream stuff, but that's what they call it.
Or build back better, but I'm not sure they will be able to build back better.
They want to tear things down so they can build it back up again, but it seems this could go either way, to be honest.
These are some of the memes that came out of all of this.
Insane stuff.
I own nothing, and I have no privacy, and life has never been better.
You'll own nothing and you'll be happy.
This is how our world could change by 2030.
And we don't have to dwell on that, right?
So China, a lot of people are talking about China, big, you know, big dangerous enemy, and certainly there is still an aspect of that.
But again, they're declining so fast demographically that they're not going to be a dominating force within.
Again, no one can exactly say, but maybe 10 years, maybe sooner, depending on what happens, depending on what happens with the energy situation as well.
China's doomed fight against demographic decline.
So my point is it's not only happening in the West, this decline.
It's happening in many other countries, including some developed countries, or some that are kind of halfway there.
And largely it's just due to modernization, urbanization, and these kinds of things.
People just tend to have less kids in those environments.
But as I said, even countries where they don't have that, and where we still have large demographics, Other things could happen in those countries, such as famine, food shortages.
We don't know.
A shrinking China can't overtake America.
As China's population ages, the world's factory struggles to recruit young migrant workers.
I doubt China would ever open the borders to migrant workers, but maybe they would, but where are they going to come from?
They are not going to be the world's factory anymore, which is going to change the whole global outlook, essentially.
And here's another insane thing that's happened, because I want to talk a little bit later here about What happens when we end up in this situation, right?
Where we have to move somewhere.
We have to go somewhere to try to survive, right?
They complain on us at every single turn.
Maine becomes more diverse, but still whitest state in the nation.
Oh, really?
Why is Maine so white?
No one would ever write this about any other group, right?
New Hampshire, 94% white.
How do you diversify a whole state?
This goes on.
West Virginia, they claimed on that recently, too.
It's insane, you know?
They call it the mountain state is more of a racially isolated side dish.
What's going on here?
Welcome to Whiteopia, Fortune Magazine, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
We had a little piece.
This is so dumb.
I'm not even going to read this.
If you live somewhere, that's a big problem, right?
The ship is going to go down at some point.
It's a big ship.
We don't know when it's going to go down.
You have to decide when you want to get off.
I just think that right now, built into the whole structure is failure, essentially.
And again, whether intentional or not, we don't know.
At some point, you have to decide when to get on the lifeboats and what that is for you.
I'm not telling you, get out now, you know, kind of thing, but I'm saying keep all these things in mind that things could radically change.
The military, they used to police the global oceans to keep all this globalized trading system in place.
We're making them walk around in high heels right now.
You know what I mean?
This is the military now.
That's a man right there.
This is a four-star admiral.
This is now female beauty.
Everything is upside down.
This is a boy, by the way, if you didn't follow the story.
This is bravery.
I've had 21 abortions.
Not the woman that has 10 kids.
That's not brave.
No, no.
I have 21 abortions.
That's brave now.
Everything is upside down today.
This is a female athlete, folks.
This is science.
Yes, it is possible for men to get pregnant and give birth to children of their own.
This is the second search result on Google, right now.
This is diverse television.
You know when you see it, right?
This is an underdog.
That's right.
These are natural conservatives.
We're all equal.
Remember that mantra.
Continuous. No difference whatsoever, right?
And we have to be nice to them now because they're going to take care of us when we're older.
That's what I'm hearing in Sweden all the time.
Yeah, that'll work out real great, right?
So these are some of the children that we're helping out, you know, when we're opening our borders in Sweden.
We're just helping the kids.
It's all right.
Don't worry about it.
All right.
And these are, you know, it just gets worse from here, right?
Here's Epstein.
These are respected men, right?
And, of course, Epstein, he gets to keep his bank accounts while Kanye lost his at J.P. Morgan.
He just tells you everything you need to know.
Pedophile who runs a child sex trafficking ring.
The blackmailing politicians.
Eh, that's good.
It's alright.
Healthcare under COVID.
Who can forget all this?
The insanity.
Everything has changed.
Everything is upside down.
I'm saying built into the system is total insanity.
I don't think it can be converted.
I think it's going to go down.
And at some point we have to get to the lifeboat.
So I'll try to be quick with this right here.
What can we do?
If we don't have any children, we won't have any future.
Have more children.
Number one.
And if you can't have children, then urge those around you to have children.
Talk to those who can.
Encourage that.
We have to have schools, our own education system, our own curriculums.
We have to start building things up again.
I don't see it as a loss that we're just pulling out of society.
I just think it's too insane.
We built it once, we can build it again.
That's not a problem.
We have to be good role models, upstanding.
Be someone to look up to so the kids can look up to you instead of, I don't know, Marvel Comics or something.
You know what I mean?
Be upstanding.
We have tradition.
We have everything.
We don't have to reinvent the wheel.
We just have to dig this out.
This happened to be from my country, but pick up whatever you have, whatever you belong to.
And there's nothing wrong with saying you want to have...
We deserve human rights too.
It's fine.
I'm not going to counter-signal that, but I don't think we should beg and grovel to this insane system that is pushing all this on us.
Can we please also have rights?
They're not going to give it to us.
If we built that, we can do anything.
So we've got to think as a group, think collectively.
It doesn't mean you have to do away with your individuality, but it means you have to start thinking as a group.
Live more as a village.
In the potential, when technology begins to fail or you won't be able to get the newest iPhone anymore because of collapse of the markets or something, we can go back to a point where we basically have a village once again.
And that's a good thing.
That's actually something we can utilize.
So in this catastrophe, we can have something that's very good.
And we might be forced out of our comfort zone as opposed to just sitting around waiting for it.
At some point, we're going to need land.
Places already, obviously, in this country, in Europe.
If we have to build a wall around it, so be it.
You know what I mean?
Fight. Learn to fight.
I'm not saying walk up and punch him in the face.
I'm saying take the fights, the rhetorical fights.
Don't give up.
Don't bow down.
Where it's worth, stand up for yourself.
Stand up for other people around you.
And if you can't, at least help those who do fight.
Again, there's some religions you can look towards.
I mean, Mormonism have certain things of this, but they're talking about tithes, and there's things you can have if you're getting older, estates that you can, a portion of your estate can go to people that fight, etc.
And there's so many good people out there that are doing this right now.
I'm seeing a massive change from just three, four years ago, where most people still just talked about the problems, but now we're basically talking about, okay, well, what do we do?
What happens, right?
What do we do next?
So leadership...
Be positive.
Be white-pilled.
Never be black-pilled.
If it's too much for you, looking at the news and depressing stuff, back away.
It doesn't serve anything good.
Do what you want to do, what's positive for you.
And I don't want this to sound cringe or trite, but I'm just saying sometimes it's the hardest to do the simplest things, and we tend to overcomplicate things, and it's not that complicated.
Be calm.
Be wise.
There's still time.
This is not the end of the world, potentially.
But it means that we're going to hopefully live in a time where we're going to see the ashes being created from where the phoenix is going to rise once again.
And that's a great honor to be part of that time.
And all of you are part of that time right now.
Thanks. Outstanding talk,
by the way, sincerely.
I'll keep this brief, but something that's important that I think people overlook is the foundation of the Cold War really was the United States building confidence in its currency in an absolute capacity.
From the Berlin blockade to the crash of 87, this was an ongoing process.
You cannot sustain a world economic system on an entirely debased currency that is not backed up by infrastructure that creates value added.
I mean, do you agree?
Is it possible that Russia, Belarus, I don't like the term, but the Global South can create some kind of system in aggregate to, I mean, essentially, just secede, essentially, from the world economic paradigm.
Or do you think that that's just so much, you know...
So much fantasy.
What's your take on that?
I think they're doing that now with the BRICS countries.
There's many more that want to join in on that.
This is basically all according to what they have talked about for some time.
They call it the multipolar world order, which is basically you have one faction over here, another one over there.
It's a way of them decentralizing the new world order, as the popular term goes, and basically having, you know, you can't rely on the U.S. anymore.
What if another Trump is elected, just goes off the rails and do things you don't want them to do?
You have to have multiple power zones.
In a balance of power kind of thing.
And that's where I'm seeing Russia play.
I don't want to get into a whole thing of why they painted them into a corner, of what led to the war and stuff like that, but it feels like it's very good timing.
Let me put it that way.
Thanks. Hi.
Just a quick question about the relationship between our movement, just your thoughts and observations between our movement here in America and Western and Central Europe and kind of if there's any intersection or just curious to learn a little more.
Sure, yeah.
There's a lot of groups in many European countries that are very well organized and well established.
But at the same time, it's bad over here.
It's starting to get really bad over here when it comes to the executive agencies that I mentioned and them clamping down on people and stuff like that.
But in some European countries, it's even worse now.
They're changing the foundational laws, I call it my country right now, to be able to go after terrorists and stuff.
This hasn't been an issue before that much.
But now that's starting in Sweden as well.
You have to look and learn from each other.
That's the short answer.
You have to see what they're doing over there that works and what you guys are doing over here that works and take inspiration.
In a way, decentralize everything.
It's going to be harder.
The more centralized any kind of movement is, the harder it is.
It's actually good that there are factions and different groupings here and there.
Ensure survival, essentially.
What do you think about the recent elections in Italy and Sweden?
Some people have speculated it could be an alliance between, let's say, Hungary, those nations, and Poland to create a different type of alliance.
Unfortunately, when I look at Sweden and Italy, I see a media that paints them out to be these hyper-radicals and they're fascists and all these things, but when you look at what they're doing, they're absolutely not that.
I wish they were harder.
That's what it takes to solve the situation.
It feels like they're just kind of wasting time, if I'm being honest, and it kind of tends to placate people a little bit.
We'll see what happens.
It could be too early to tell, but what I've seen from Georgia Maloney so far doesn't look that good.
And what's happening in Sweden, there's some positive things, but some things have been completely insane, such as joining NATO.
I don't know why they need to do that, but yeah.
So the general tenor I get is that the neoliberal world order is failing in your eyes.
It's going to collapse.
I thought that with COVID.
But with this Russia war, with a whole bunch of other things, it seems like this order is actually doing pretty well, and they're not failing.
I actually got into politics with Ron Paul.
I remember thinking, yeah, the Fed's going to end.
It's all going to be done.
It'll be so amazing.
But psychologically as well, putting aside the practical matters, I do want to hear what you think to the counterargument to if it is doing well.
But wouldn't it be better for us to have the psychological...
I totally get that.
I totally understand that perspective.
Personally, I just think they can't keep it going.
There's so many concurrent streams of insanity right now.
I just don't see how we can pull this off, right?
I mean, I know, again, they want to intentionally create chaos in order to build back better, right?
That's what they want to do.
But my point is, I don't think they're going to pull it off, and we have to use that as an opportunity to do it.
Whatever placates people, that's not a good thing.
So I'm not trying to say just sit back and wait because it's all going to fall apart.
I'm saying, you know, organize now and potentially prepare.
And even if those things continue to work and everything...
You're not going to be worse off by having created a community in the process and being more self-reliant.
You're not going to lose doing that anyway.
And that's why I said if people are still within the system, they're making money, they're comfortable, keep doing that.
It's your time to tell when and if it's time to get out.
But personally, I just don't see how this lasts.
It's too insane.
Maybe they want to build back worse, and that's good for them.
That is true.
They want to build back worse.
Well, I think they want their fourth industrial revolution.
They want their automation and their robots and all the cool stuff and green tech and stuff.
But it's like, at this point at least, unless there are other things that show up that will make up for all the losses that we're seeing in energy production and minerals and the splitting up essentially of the formerly globalized world, I don't see how they're going to pull that off.
Again, obviously I could be wrong, but...
We'll see what happens.
Just prepare for potentiality.
That's all I'm saying.
I'm not saying jump in the lifeboats now, but I'm saying psychologically be ready.
Things could dramatically alter in the next few years.
All right.
Thank you, guys.
