Dries Van Langenhove: Now Is the Time to Act
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
I'm delighted to have in the studio with me a most unusual guest.
His name is Dries van Langenhove.
He is a Flemish nationalist.
He's come to us from Belgium.
He started the most influential youth group in Belgium called Schild und Vrienden.
And that means literally shield and friend.
It is a battle cry from 1302 and it is symbolic of the establishment of Flemish peoplehood.
He was also elected to the Belgian Parliament in 2019.
At that time, he was the youngest parliamentarian.
He served two terms and decided this year that his impact could be greater outside of Parliament than within it.
Something else I could tell you, that he was a speaker at the most recent American Renaissance Conference, where he gave his first ever speech in English.
We hope it will be the first of many.
And I don't want to swell his head too much, but people came afterwards up to me and said it was the best speech they'd ever heard in their lives.
So, it is my pleasure to welcome to you Dries van Langenhoven.
So delighted to have you with us.
Thank you.
Glad to be here.
I know that in many respects you are a dissident in your country, just as I'm a dissident in mine.
Can you tell me a little bit about your progress to becoming a dissident?
How did you arrive at these different ideas from your surroundings?
Well, I get this question a lot.
Often it's a question that is asked in a very negative manner.
Journalists, I know you're not one of them, but they often ask me this question because they're looking for some kind of Deus Ex Machina.
They're searching for this one person that has a great influence on me or this one book or one traumatizing event from which I came to these very weird ideas.
But that's, of course, not at all the case.
And I think what happened...
To me, it's exactly the same thing that happened to a lot of dissident thinkers, to a lot of people who oppose the current regime and the current establishment.
So what happened is I've just lived, I have experienced, I have read, I have seen, I have heard.
I've just been a critical thinker all my life and I have just looked at my surroundings.
And then if you do that with an open mind...
You come to these logical conclusions that a lot of things aren't working in our society and that the causes of these are that we have just started building society upon the wrong principles and that we have allowed this massive migration, this whole leftist multicultural dream.
And right now we can just see that it isn't working.
I don't need a certain particular book or a certain thinker for that or I don't need to be traumatized to come to the conclusion that this whole multicultural Well, you know, that is nevertheless an unusual thing because you arrived at these views relatively young.
So many people see the same things you do, and yet they don't arrive at the correct understanding of what has caused them.
Do you have any further insights as to why that might have been in your case?
If I ask my mother this question, and of course I have some memories of my early youth, but usually my mother will know better.
She says that I have always had a very strong sense of justice and injustice.
I really could not stand injustice.
And the older I became, the more I got to realize that the whole position...
The European youth, and I regard American youth as European youth as well, the position we're in right now is completely unjust.
We live in a society that is completely being deconstructed.
Every cornerstone of society is being deconstructed.
Look at the traditional family.
Today it's almost a hate crime to start a traditional family with a mother, a father and children.
What a woman is, is being deconstructed.
What a man is, is being deconstructed.
And all the mental illnesses in between are being applauded and celebrated.
Our environment is being...
Polluted we are we are creating an enormous amount of financial debt for our youth and of course the most important problem that has been Pushed on again and again by previous generations is the whole multicultural,
multi-ethnic tragedy that's being unfolded in the whole Western world and that's being heaped up, as Enoch Powell said, we're heaping up our own funeral.
Yeah, that's a huge problem and I think our generation will have to solve it.
We will either be...
The strongest, the bravest generation of Europeans to have ever lived, or I fear that we will be.
The last.
And I choose greatness.
And I hope that many young Europeans will choose the same thing with me.
And it's not going to be easy.
My life so far hasn't always been the easiest life.
But this is the best thing to do.
And we Europeans, we need a challenge.
We have a Faustian spirit.
And we need to do this.
We're not made for an easy life.
We're not made to just sit back in the sofa and watch sports ball or pornography or Netflix all day.
We're made for a challenge.
We're made for great things.
And what greater thing is there, especially for young Europeans, than to make sure that our descendants will have a future, that the lands of our ancestors remain the lands of our descendants, that this chain of generations for which our ancestors have suffered so much,
so gravely, that we can make sure that this chain continues for many generations and that this chain will become stronger than ever.
Yes, I couldn't agree with you more, and I think some of our listeners are getting a sense of the kind of eloquence and passion that you brought to your American Renaissance speech just a few days ago.
I'm very pleased that you referred to Americans as Europeans.
I think that we are all part of a world brotherhood of Europeans, and we all face the same challenges, the same challenges.
What is remarkable, certainly in your case, and increasingly I find in younger Europeans, is how quickly they have come to a sensible realization of race, ethnicity, of the importance of biology and family.
I stumbled along and didn't come to these ideas until I was maybe 35. Now I meet so many young people like you.
Who, at an early age, understood what is going wrong.
Now, one of the first things you did to correct this horrible situation that's impending for your country was to start this youth movement.
Can you tell me about how it functioned, what its purposes were, and what its status is now?
Yes, I'd gladly do so.
First, to reply to what you said earlier, I think one of these reasons is that in Europe, in contrast to America, we've had many generations that have lived in very homogenous societies, in countries that were one ethnicity,
mainly of course, not ethnostates at all, but that had a very homogenous society, a high-trust society.
And then my generation came along, and then this massive migration started coming.
We are actually the first generation that is being raised often in cities that have become minority white, minority European cities, in schools that are really degrading very fast because of this massive migration.
And I think my generation will have to do it because the generation that will come after my generation, they will have been brought up.
In a society that is teaching them that multiculturalism has been the case in all of history.
Every history book will be rewritten.
Every movie will be redone with black and brown actors to replace every white historic figure throughout history.
And I think the generations that will come after us, they won't have a clue that one day it was different.
That one day you could leave your car running with the key in the lock in Brussels.
And Brussels right now is a city where there's almost No Belgians, no Flemish or Walloons left.
It's a complete multicultural hellhole.
And the problem is that young people who are born in Belgium now, they will never have even known that there was such a thing as a safe, homogenous, high-trust Brussels.
So I think that's why my generation, in Europe at least, is now realizing this is going wrong.
Americans, on the other hand, have been brought up with these universalist, egalitarian values for a few generations now.
And that's why I think there's not a lot of difference between the current generation in America and the previous.
Even though we see that...
The youth in America right now is more conservative than the previous generations.
But what the word conservative means, of course, has many different meanings.
Now, to come back to your question, I haven't forgotten.
Shield and Friends, literally translated, is a movement that I started because left-wing activists, some call them terrorists, were terrorizing lecturers that were held in universities.
By right-wing politicians, right-wing speakers.
Then I just, as a member of the Board of Governors from Ghent University, I was elected by many students to be their representative in the Board of Governors of Ghent University, a very left-wing university.
I found myself to be sort of responsible.
I didn't want ordinary students who just wanted to go listen to a democratically elected politician to be attacked by left-wing agitators, by Antifa.
So I did an open call to action.
I asked for fellow students to protect in a way these lectures and many students showed up, way more than I could have ever expected, which shows again that the European youth is kind of waking up and then we decided we had to do something with this ability to mobilize and then out of that grew Silt& Vrinden,
which is now Belgium's most influential political youth movement.
We are huge.
We have a big impact.
And I hope we can broaden this impact even further because the youth is really looking for meaning, for purpose.
Our youth is literally depressed.
I have the numbers from the Netherlands.
Over a million people in the Netherlands, on 70 million, are taking antidepressants.
I don't think it's a huge number.
I don't think it's any better in America.
Probably worse.
Suicide rates are enormously rapidly.
We have a drug epidemic in America.
We have over 100,000 overdoses each year.
Those numbers are really...
They are really awful.
And what they translate to is a youth generation that is looking for meaning, for purpose in their lives.
And with Schulte and Vrinde, we try to give them that.
We are, of course, very strongly anti-migration and pro-homogeneous Flemish society.
We are also for the traditional Christian values.
We are also for self-improvement through sports.
We are anti-degeneracy, anti-LGBTQ nonsense, anti-pornography, etc.
Also for Flemish independence.
That's a particular situation in Belgium.
We try to get a very broad impact and really get our youth to find meaning and purpose in life.
Well, it sounds like the origins of your organization really were as a shield to defend these conservative speakers against these wild antifa.
I understand that you are now looking forward to holding your summer university.
Can you tell me a little bit about the curriculum?
Yes, that's correct.
We have many activities.
One of them, probably one of our most important, is our yearly summer university, which will be in two weeks from now, where we teach young activists how to become the leaders of tomorrow.
And we have a very practical approach to it.
We do a lot of sports, of course, because I truly believe in mens sana in corpore sano.
The Greeks knew it.
The Romans knew it.
A healthy mind in a healthy body.
But nowadays, Europeans, especially American Europeans, seem to have forgotten.
I think the physical degeneration has gone hand in hand with the mental and moral degeneration of America and thus also Europe, because America has a very big influence on Europe culturally.
I think we need to do something about that, and we do so.
We organize a lot of sports events on our summer university, but we also do practical and theoretical exercises.
For example, everyone coming to the summer university has to prepare a speech about a certain subject they believe will be interesting and practically useful for the other participants.
And when they come with their speech, we will do a workshop on how to write a proper speech.
So they have written something, so they have already thought about how should I bring this up.
And then we will correct their speech.
We will give them tips.
They will rewrite it.
Then we do a practical workshop of how to give a speech.
Then they have some real-life experience.
And then at the end of that day, we will have them all speech for the whole group, which gives them some experience.
Because a lot of people come to me and they ask me, how did you get to learn how to speak that way?
Were you born with this?
Well, it's something you really can practice.
But there's often not a lot of opportunities to practice.
So we try to give them this opportunity.
So you are trying to train the most effective, powerful, persuasive spokesman for your movement.
That's correct.
I think everyone should be an example in their own community.
And this community can be small, it can be big.
I believe every one of us, everyone listening to this podcast has a talent or has something that will make them a useful asset for our people.
Everyone can make a difference.
However big or small, everyone has a talent to work together.
And I think if everyone realizes that they can do something and that they will do something, then we are going to make a huge difference.
Yes, yes.
I understand that associated with Schild and Vrinden, you started this chain of boxing clubs.
Was that a separate matter associated also in mensana, koporosana, or in koporosana mensana, I believe it is.
Was that part of the same thinking as well?
It's part of the same thinking, exactly.
That's one of the reasons why I started these boxing clubs, because I believe that our youth has not only mentally, but also physically become weak.
And a lot of people start complaining.
We get these videos all the time, also from America, where we see white European youth getting beat up, getting denigrated, getting spit upon, shouted at, by mostly non-whites.
And it's almost never the other way around.
And a lot of people complain about that.
They will complain about our youth.
And I don't start complaining with them.
I don't start dreaming of the better days when our youth was...
When they were strong enough to jump on a ship and conquer the world or when they were brave enough to jump out of the trenches and face certain death out of love for their fatherland.
No, I don't complain.
I just took action.
And I thought, well, if nobody's doing it, I will do it.
And I tried to give people the example of what they can do as well because starting a boxing club, it's all not that difficult.
Of course, I have a big reach which helped me if I'm...
Post on social media about it.
A lot of people will come.
But everyone can do this.
We have different boxing clubs where we try to organize boxing classes, self-defense classes, but also mental well-being.
We do ice baths.
We do breathing workshops.
We do even yoga.
We do a lot of things to try to make sure that people are improving themselves.
If everyone is the best version of himself, eventually our people will become a better version of itself.
And that's what we try to do in these boxing classes.
We have a system where the elderly people, some call them boomers, where they can donate to have our system running, to be able to provide these classes for free for young people.
So that's a system that works quite well.
Well, I'm, of course, a boomer, and I often say that my generation made a terrible, terrible mess of things.
And at least a few of us are trying to help your generation dig us out of this terrible hole that we have helped.
I don't know how well you knew Guillaume Fay in France.
But he said, if the generation of Europeans in their 20s now does not act, then our civilization is doomed.
He said something very similar to yours, to what you've been saying about ours will have to be the strongest generation or the last generation.
Of course, many Americans look to Eastern Europe and they say to themselves, well, the Baltic Republics, the Czech Republic, and certainly Hungary.
These are healthy places.
Do you see them able to resist this poisonous American influence?
What do you think of the prospects for the country that are on the other side of what we used to call the Iron Curtain?
Well, a lot can be said about that, of course.
A few points that I'd like to make.
The first being that a lot of Western Europeans and Americans as well, as I hear, look at Eastern Europe as a sort of escape.
We can still escape to Eastern Europe.
These countries are still homogenous, European, oftentimes as well Christian.
But I think that's going to change very rapidly because I believe that what the Soviets could not do in 50 years, the Americans are going to do in 10 years.
I really fear, for example, the Baltic states, for the Polish people.
I think America has a huge influence there.
I think they will push migration and diversification onto these countries, and I think it will happen very rapidly.
If you would go to Poland right now, it's still a very European and Christian country, but I fear that if we are going to let the American influencers, if I could say so, do their job in Poland, then Poland will.
We really have to watch out for that.
I hope that some activists or politicians in Poland will start to ring the alarm bell about the American influence, because if not, then I fear for Eastern Europe.
Then there is an exception, Hungary, which has a prime minister, Viktor Orban, who is a true nationalist, a true hero for his people.
He has skin in the game.
He was on the street fighting the communists at a time when that was still a very, very dangerous thing to do.
So I have a lot of respect for him, and he's also given me great advice.
But I fear that Hungary also has its problems.
It's being isolated in the European Union.
It has a huge gypsy population.
And if you think integrating northern Africans, for example, is difficult, well, I'd like you to meet the gypsies.
They're quite another challenge for integration.
Well, I agree that the influence of the United States all around the world is an exceedingly poisonous one.
And there are many people, both American and European, in your continent, who think the more the United States is weakened, At least the more its reach is diminished, the better it is for all nationalists, not just European nationalists, all nationalists, because Americans go all around the world finding people that are Muslims and they want to turn them into good little liberals,
bikini-wearing liberals.
And so to the extent that America declines, that will let other nations assert themselves in a healthier way.
This is a difficult question, and I've wondered about it myself.
But in what aspect of these American poisons do you think is so attractive, even to relatively healthy societies like those in Eastern Europe?
Yeah, first of all, I'd have to say that we have to really watch out because a lot of the anti-American sentiment is in fact an anti-white sentiment.
America is still the biggest European nation, if I can say so, on Earth.
It's a very powerful nation and I think if America would tomorrow cease to exist, I think that would also be very bad news for Europe.
On a real political level, if you get what I mean, then again, the cultural influence of America has been detrimental, not only for Europe, but for countries all over the world.
So the magic potion should be one that diminishes the cultural influence of America, or at least perhaps changes this cultural influence to something nationalistic, conservative, in the true sense of the word conservative, not in the current sense, but remains the industrial manufacturing.
military power of America should in a way not diminish then again because I believe that it could lead to a dangerous situation even for Europe if America tomorrow would cease to exist
No, I don't.
I don't.
I think America's role in the world today is so poisonous that if we could wave a magic wand and America disappeared.
I believe Europe would be in a much stronger position.
The European nationalists would be in a much stronger position.
You don't benefit from our military power.
You don't benefit from our economic power.
You suffer only from our cultural poisons.
That's my view.
That's very correct, but I agree with that.
I mean, what's happening in Russia and Ukraine, for example, is just America looking at its own interests and not at all at the interests of Europe because America is profiting at the detriment of Europe in this crisis and in many other crises as well.
But still, I regard America as a part of the same European body.
And if you're telling me to make the body strong, we need to cut off its legs, then I think we'll have a body without legs.
So I think if there is still a possibility to save America from itself, then I think that should be our top priority.
Of course, if these legs have gangrene, if they are impossible to save, then we will have to cut them off for the body to survive.
But still, I think I look at America as the greatest, most powerful, the biggest demographic.
White European nation and just saying we need to cut it off really hurts me, of course.
Well, believe me, it hurts me.
The first tailor came to this continent in 1635.
It's difficult to be more American than I. And so it is a very embittering experience to see the effect that my nation has on our brothers, our European brothers all around the world.
But gangrene is exactly the idea that occurred to me when you talked about this body.
There are parts you have to make a sacrifice.
And we'll just have to agree to disagree.
But I think that if even the economic power, maybe it would require the economic power to diminish for the cultural power to diminish.
But Hollywood, Hollywood.
It just pumps its perverse and horrible ideas, not just to Europe, but to Asia, to South America.
This is really, really the nest of vipers in terms of what is poisoning real, authentic peoplehood all around the world.
I completely agree, but I do believe that there is still a possibility to turn those things around without having to sacrifice the whole of America.
My suspicion is that...
Our civilization can exist in and will survive in a meaningful form in North America only if there is a kind of breakup of the United States.
Only if there are enclaves that are self-consciously European.
Yes, that could very well be it.
I think that's a very interesting topic.
But I'm not an expert on secession of any means.
But you did ask a very important and interesting question earlier on.
What is it that makes this American poison so appealing to many Europeans and to many European nations?
Well, I think the difference between, for example, the communist influence...
Let's take Eastern Europe as a good example, because it's also a warning to them and to the whole world.
Influence in Eastern Europe has always been a very superficial one.
What do I mean by that?
There weren't that many people in Eastern Europe that truly believed in communism, that truly liked communism.
They just accepted it through time because that was just the reality.
That was how it was.
But what we saw was when communism dissolved, that there weren't really a lot of people that actually believed in communism.
People weren't crying.
They weren't thinking, oh, we've lost everything.
They were glad that it was gone.
And they just went, well, not immediately, but eventually.
They went back to church.
They got back their old ways, their old traditions.
It didn't really destroy them.
The people in and of itself.
It was a top-down, oppressive regime, but it didn't really change the people itself.
Now, the difference with the American poison is that it changes the people from within because it speaks to the most basic, hedonistic, individualistic nature of human beings.
I mean, human beings, most of them, 99% of them, they cannot resist Instant gratification.
And that is what this American culture, if I can call it culture even, provides to these people through pornography, sports ball, unhealthy foods, television, Hollywood, video gaming.
It's kind of a drug.
And sometimes even in the literal sense, 100,000 dying of overdoses each year.
That's what the American culture provides.
And I fear that that really speaks to the nature of human beings.
So we really have to protect people.
Well, I'm afraid there's a lot of truth to that.
The first time I went to one of the Baltic Republics, I was in Estonia.
In my hotel room, I was watching BBC, BBC television.
And I was watching, they have a gay correspondent.
He has a regular program.
He's this black guy, sort of foo-foo, and he's dancing around talking about how wonderful it is to be gay.
And at the same time, all the production values are superb.
All the images are glamorous.
And I kept thinking to myself, this is a beautifully, gorgeously packaged poison pill.
I think a big part of it, of course, is the fact that the West is still so much wealthier.
And the Estonian nationalists that I spoke to were talking regretfully about how so many Estonians go to the West because they can make more money.
They turn their backs on an authentic society, which is, at least by our standards, still an authentic European society, and they go where the money is.
So I believe you're correct.
The combination of greater wealth, instant gratification...
Individualism, all of that has a very powerful appeal.
It's in the nature of human beings.
They want wealth, materialistic, they want status.
But I do believe that many young Europeans are waking up to this because they've been...
Chasing happiness all their lives.
That's what they've been told.
You need to travel.
You need to buy things.
You need to consume.
You need to watch porn and Netflix.
Eat unhealthy foods.
And then you will become happy.
They see this in commercials.
They see this by influencers on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook.
But they've been doing this for about, I think, since the real rise of social media for about 10 years now.
And they are not exactly getting any happier.
That is because if you chase happiness, you will end up unhappy.
If you chase...
Meaning and purpose in life.
If you do hard things for a greater good, then eventually you'll have a meaningful, fulfilling life.
Thus end up happy.
And I think more and more people are waking up to this.
And one of the signs is, for example, this whole Andrew and Tristan Tate thing.
You might know these guys.
They've become a bit famous over the years.
I'm not a fan of them.
But what it shows is that there are lots of young Europeans on the look for something real in life.
And of course, these Tate brothers, they don't provide anything real.
They point to what's wrong in society and then they give a solution that's actually...
The society on steroids.
I mean, you need to buy expensive sports cars.
You need to go do pornography and have a lot of wealth.
That's not the answer, of course.
But their popularity shows that a lot of young people feel that there's something wrong with society at the moment.
And our greatest challenge...
On the right, on the conservative side, is to provide an alternative to these young people.
If we don't do that, then the Wokies and the Islamists, they have alternative ways of life for these people, a whole set and rules for life.
And people are going to flock to those unless we provide them with an alternative.
And that's what I try to do with my media channel, with my youth movement, with my boxing clubs.
I try to provide a meaningful and purposeful alternative to this modern...
You know, we in the United States, we are so vividly aware of how dismal all of the cultural attractions of America are, and in the United States as well.
So many young people.
I mentioned to you earlier, I meet people who are 25, not even 25, not even 20, and they know more than I knew when I was 35, 40 years old.
These are people who have immediately, as you did, discovered the unfairness, the craziness of our society.
And the United States is probably more divided than it has been ever since the Civil War.
I feel as though this is like 1862, 63, 64. We're approaching a kind of breaking point.
Do you in Europe have any similar sense that things are at such loggerheads?
I do think there is a similar effect in Europe.
I don't think it's as strong as in America because American society is even more polarized than European society is.
But this polarization, this friction, this negative energy is going to come over the ocean one way or another.
That's always what happens.
And in this case, that might not even be so bad.
I think what's happening is that these young people are looking for an alternative.
And what you went through probably at your age is you started having certain ideas.
Finding other people with these ideas, finding information about these ideas used to be very difficult a long time ago.
Nowadays, when you start thinking about something, you just type in some terms in Google.
You'll get videos, you'll get communities that are dedicated to solving these questions.
You'll get a lot of information, hopefully, from people who provide meaningful and purposeful alternatives and not from people who promote violence or anything like that.
But I think that's what has been the catalysator to change everything.
Everything a lot more rapidly than it ever used to be in history because we live in this historic time.
Where we have the window of opportunity of an open and free internet.
And of course, you are very heavily censored.
I know.
I'm also quite heavily censored.
But nevertheless, if people really search, they will get to us.
Yes, they will.
One way or another.
And that's a historic anomaly.
That has never been the case in history.
We can...
My speech for American Renaissance.
There's a realistic chance that this speech will be viewed by millions of people all around the world.
At least resonate with millions.
And that is a...
It's a historical anomaly.
It's a window of opportunity that soon will close because the only reason this window of opportunity is here is because there have been very rapid developments in technology and the establishment, the powers that be, got caught off guard in a way.
And they've been catching up very rapidly.
We see the United Nations, America, the European Union, the World Economic Forum.
They're all saying we need to censor a hate speech even more than it is already at the moment.
Social media is working together with that.
You know all about it.
I know all about it.
But soon everyone will know about it.
So this window of opportunity is closing very rapidly.
We better make use of it today, as we are doing today.
We're doing our best.
Yes, we are.
I know it's astonishing to me that, I believe it was in 2020, Barack Obama, President of the United States, said that the Internet is the greatest threat to our democracy.
What in heaven's name that means that free speech, when people can actually...
And I agree with you.
Now the window is closing.
We must get through it as best as possible.
But this attitude on their part is a sign of tremendous weakness.
Sometimes I'd like to sit Barack Obama down and say, don't you realize?
How weak this makes you sound.
You have no confidence in your ideas.
They don't.
Their narrative is so weak that even the smallest amount of opposition will shatter it apart.
So that's why they have to shut us up.
That's why they have to censor us.
Because they really cannot stand any form of opposition because their ideas are so weak.
That's why I constantly try to say.
This is not a...
Differing of opinions.
This is truth versus lies.
This is right versus wrong.
And that's why they have to censor us, because otherwise we would take over the whole forum.
Yes, somehow, if Jared Taylor can get his YouTube channel back, that's the end of American democracy?
What a pathetic, pitiful thing American democracy must be.
If I, along with, say, Alex Jones, we can just push the house of cards down.
No, it's a terrible admission of how much they've failed.
In the United States, I think we can safely say that the left has no vision at all.
All they're going to offer us is more conflict, more victim groups, more accusations of racism, more accusations of homophobia.
It is impossible to be an American today and say, America is just getting better and better all the time.
That used to be the promise of America.
It's getting better and better all the time.
And I can't help but think that Europeans, too, are looking at America.
And unlike in the post-war years, certainly, even through the 60s and maybe the 70s, America has no lesson to give Europe, at least for those who have some belief in their own future and destiny.
That's correct.
But nevertheless, I'm positive and hopeful for the future because I truly believe that anything that defies natural law stands on weak footing.
It will eventually all come crashing down because the truth will eventually always prevail.
You cannot go against nature.
So their whole system, their whole pyramid of lies will eventually come crashing down.
And the more we work hard and work together, the more...
All of the people listening to us today will take up their responsibility and try to make a change.
However big or small that change may be, the sooner their empire of lies will come crashing down.
So I am very optimistic about the future.
Well, it's true.
Even the Roman juvenile said you can chase nature out with a pitchfork.
Drive it out with a pitchfork.
It will always return.
And that's why, ever since I began American Renaissance, I've always said the truth is on our side.
Science is on our side.
History is on our side.
Morality is on our side.
All we need to do is get our ideas presented to the world in the clearest, most emphatic way.
Well, I think we've come about to the end of our time here.

If you think the Americans If you think the Americans don't dare to speak the truth, if you think the Americans are not doing enough for their people, well then first of all, start working out.
Go to the boxing club.
Start speaking the truth yourself.
Start doing more for your people yourself.
And if you do those things, then you can start demanding more of your people.
Be an example in your community.
You don't have to devote your whole life to this struggle as you do, as I do.
You can make a difference, however busy your life may be, however big your responsibilities may be.
Everyone can make, in his or her own matter, can make a difference.
Start doing that today.
Absolutely true.
If our viewers and listeners want to follow you, what is the best way to do so?
What is the best way to follow Dries van Langenhoven?
Well, as you said earlier in our talk, it was my first speech in English at the American Renaissance Conference.
But I was planning for quite a while to start a channel in English as well.
Because, of course, the Dutch audience is quite small.
And as it seems, we Europeans are going to have to save America as well.
But I'm going to start some channels in English as well.
But in the meanwhile, people can follow me on Telegram.
I think you can present that in the video where they can follow me in an uncensored...
I suspect you're even twice as persuasive in your own native language as you are in English, so you have made a great start,
certainly in English, and I wish you success in all of your undertakings.
I think you have a great future for our people, and I thank you very much for being in the studio today.
Thank you as well for the invitation.
Well, thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
