Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 25th of June 2021.
I'm joined by Carl.
Hello.
And today we're going to be talking about Biden's threat of civil war, which, uh, weird gamble, but okay.
Also, the critical race theory might end up, well, destroying the United States at this point.
Like, just as a foreigner looking in, like, the fact that you guys are having interrogations of military officials who are then there defending such a thing, I can't get over it.
It's I mean, that combined with the President talking about civil war doesn't help.
And also, a bit of a lighter lesson, I'm not really sure what to make of it.
The Monthland Sons debacle.
So one of the guys from Monthland Sons praised Andy Knows' book and then apologised and has now left the band over the fact that...
Over politics.
He doesn't want to bring, I don't know, disrepute upon the other members or something.
Why not just stick around and be like, screw you?
I don't care.
Anyway, we'll get right into it.
So the first thing I wanted to mention was we have a new article from Ian Miles Chung on lotuses.com.
You can't scapegoat DeSantis.
I'm really liking DeSantis.
I've seen a lot of people coming around to the point of being like, you know, if Trump doesn't want to do it, yep, DeSantis 2024.
Yeah, I mean, I give him a solid 9 out of 10, losing a point for not being orange enough, but otherwise, you know, he's pretty great.
I mean, teaching the horrors of communism rather than just saying it's evil.
Yeah, banning critical race theory.
Sending troops to the Texan border to help police to the Texan border to help with the border problem.
I mean, DeSantis seems to really be on the winning team, in my opinion.
I really love the memes about that, you know, like Gondor will answer the call.
Florida will answer the call.
Florida will answer the call.
Florida, the new Texas.
So also the next thing here is the book club, so the neither left nor right from, say the name.
Zeve Sternel.
Because I can't say it.
Anyway, so this is the book about the fact, well, it essentially demonstrates the philosophical journey of socialism, which is that when you realize that the proletariat are not going to rise up, then, well, we're going to have to do it for them.
Yeah.
And then you've got two options, become a Bolshevik or become a fascist.
Yes.
And most of the socialists in Europe went fascist, other ones in Russia went Bolshevik.
Yes, that's exactly right.
And the great thing about Ziv is he's charting the progress.
And so it's all very high level and theoretical, but it's all very useful to know because we go into exactly why they realized that Marxism was a failure, why it turns out that Marxism is a society, I think it's included in that answer.
And it's, again, really, really useful and worth your time.
And the best bit about it, as well, is that Zeve considered himself a liberal.
I mean, he wasn't like, you know, some sort of arch-conservative or something.
But you can't help but notice that...
This is nowhere near conservatism.
By the time they're discussing fascism and socialism, they're all the way over here and the conservatives are all the way over here doing something else.
So it basically puts to bed the, oh, you're a conservative fascist.
That doesn't make sense.
Like all these lads who are all socialists, eventually having this discussion.
You leave, you come back two years later and they're like, right, so how do we incorporate the proletariat into our supernatural states in which we can help their position?
What does that have to do with conservatism?
Nothing.
When would you ever hear that at a conservative meeting?
But that's the point.
Fascism is entirely revolutionary, and of course conservatism is the opposite of revolutionary, and therefore that doesn't make sense, and this is one of the really useful things that Sternhell goes out of his way to observe.
Like, look, you can't connect this to anything other than socialism.
So, there we go.
Anyway, so the last thing is also the Zoom call, which we have tonight at 4 o'clock.
If you want to find it, go to the main page, and then you see it's the big gold thing there.
That's the gold-tier Zoom call.
We're having it at 4 p.m.
today.
So come and hang out if you're a gold-tier member, because it's good fun, like from 4 to 5.
We just chill, ask questions, hang out.
It's nice.
Anyway, look forward to that.
So the first thing here, so Biden's threat of civil war.
So Biden decided to threaten the American public with, come on, do a civil war.
He's doing a temple here.
I've just been like, well, I'm sick of waiting for it, so just do it.
So here's the first thing, in which the post-millennial are posting, breaking, Biden announced major crackdown on gun dealers.
We're not changing the constitution, we're enforcing it.
Now, remind me, the exact wording is, shall not be infringed, if I recall correctly.
Right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
Seems that to enforce the constitution requires absolutely no action on the part of the executive.
I mean, if anything, it would be repealing some of the restrictions.
Yes, it would, yeah.
So it seems that the way it was worded is specifically designed to make any kind of government action regarding firearms to be an infringement and therefore to be anti-constitutional.
Yeah, so he says to combat gun violence and violent crime, we're going to stem the flow of firearms.
That's right, because it's legal guns that are involved in all of the shootings in Chicago, no doubt.
He also lists off a bunch of other stuff that's not so interesting, like advanced community policing, invest in evidence-based community violence.
Yeah, leftist dog whistles to say that we don't have any other solutions.
And so if we just waffle at you for long enough, you might think we're trying to do something.
So this got some good backlash, but then the best part is when he tried to defend this and he gave a speech in which he essentially dared the American people to declare war on the American government and nuke it, which, stunning and brave, I don't know how else to put it, but let's play this clip of him essentially risking you to declare war on them.
The Second Amendment, from the day it was passed, limited the type of people you could own a gun and what type of weapon you could own.
You couldn't buy a cannon, those who say the blood of the...
The blood of patriots, you know, and all the stuff about how we're going to have to move against the government.
Well, the tree of liberty is not water in the blood of patriots.
What's happened is that there never been, if you wanted to think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons.
The point is that there's always been the ability to limit, rationally limit, the type of weapon that can be owned and who can own it.
That's total bull.
He just threw the entire American project under the bus with that statement.
But he just throws stuff out.
I mean, A, I don't know what he said.
He's quoting Thomas Jefferson from a 1787 letter where he's like, the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
It's its natural manure.
Yeah, I mean, fine.
If you want to overthrow the government, you need nukes.
Name a government that's been overthrown by nukes.
The Taliban are laughing at you.
The North Vietnamese are laughing at you.
You don't need nukes.
Absolutely not.
There isn't a single government on Earth that's been overthrown through nuclear action.
I mean, it might help, but...
But even the Japanese government surrendered.
They weren't overthrown.
But also, just at the same time, people running into the capital with no guns, that's an insurrection that was a coup.
But if you need to do a coup, you need nukes.
One of these standards doesn't fit the other.
I want to go through the wording there very slowly, because the rambling nature of the man makes him difficult to pin.
So he says, the Second Amendment, from the day it was passed, limited the type of people who could own a gun and the type of weapon you could own.
You couldn't buy a cannon.
No.
That's not true.
To believe this, you have to take the position that the founding fathers believed that you should be able to own a musket, and that's it for all time.
As Stephen Crowder has pointed out, that is a nonsensical statement.
I mean, there are examples of people outfitting their own private ships with cannons.
Yeah, and there's also the puckle gun and so on and so forth, different kinds of musket-type weapons in the era that can fire multiple shots.
So this idea that you should only be able to fire one is also nonsense.
And can you not actually buy tanks in America?
You can buy...
I think you can get hold of tanks.
I'm not sure about fighter jets and whatnot, but it's a long, restricted process.
I mean, who can afford a fighter jet?
Jeff Bezos is private.
There's the occasional rich nutjob who just has these huge armories of every gun on the planet.
There's a lot of paperwork involved, but my understanding is you can eventually get such things.
It's your God-given right.
Well, that's the point.
And so Joe Biden is talking nonsense.
But I find this part...
Okay, sorry.
The next part says, well, the tree of liberty is not water of the blood of patriots.
Joe, you didn't understand that, did you?
Butchering it.
What happened is that there's never been, if you wanted, you think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons.
He thinks that toppling a government is what he's going to do to Saddam Hussein, that sort of thing.
So he thinks it's an outside military force, not a coup.
He doesn't seem to understand how internal revolutions work.
But that's the part I'm saying where he's throwing the entire American project under the bus with that statement.
The fact that you can't overthrow the tyrannical British government.
I mean, that was the whole goddamn point of the Americans, is they're like the British are tyrannical because they're making us pay a stamp tax.
1%?!
God, I wish we had the same thought.
Yeah, it's just based, actually.
So you need the guns to be able to overthrow them, and he's like, yeah, that's not how that works.
And we're like, well, how did America get founded then?
What are you talking about?
Why are you so worried about it, then?
You know?
That's the foundation of the United States, which is that, you know, we have the Constitution, and the second part of it is to defend the first part of it with force.
If the government tries to be tyrannical...
I know how to.
I know how to.
Joe, Joe, how did the Communist Party in China come to power?
You tell me.
I know you're a big fan of them.
You tell me how they came to power.
Was it that it grew out of the barrel of a gun or something, perhaps?
Maybe?
Is that ringing any bells if American history is off the table here?
They had Soviet support in the last half of it, you know, the Civil War.
They fought a war!
But there was no nukes involved.
That's true.
Oh, I suppose that's true.
But yeah, this is nonsense, right?
Sorry, do you want to carry on?
Yeah, so just the last point he says.
The point is that there's always been the ability to limit, rational limit the type of weapon.
I'm not reading this, by the way, it's just the way he talks.
That can be owned, and who can own it?
Which, there have been limits on the ownership of guns in the United States, sure, but are they constitutional?
Are they the right thing to do?
Are they a breach of your fundamental human right to keep and bear arms?
He has no opinion on that, as he's literally stated out, because the American Project, by his own words there, it doesn't matter, because he's throwing the whole thing under the bus by saying that the Tree of Liberty doesn't need watering with the blood of patriots and tyrants from time to time.
The tree of liberty is not water of the blood of patriots, if that's supposed to be an English sentence.
And the tyrants, Joe, Mr.
Legitimately Elected.
But this is the thing, right?
So this is a bizarre position for him to stake out, because half the country hates him.
Absolutely hates him.
Half the country literally thinks he's an illegitimate president.
Do you really think you have such confidence in the support of the military were a significant section of the country to rise up?
That's the question.
Do you think that all of the generals below, well, Joe Biden was elected.
We know because hundreds of thousands of ballots arrived at four in the morning, and that's how democracy works.
So Joe Biden's definitely the real president, and there's nothing illegitimate about this, and him trying to overthrow the Constitution, abolish the Second Amendment, bring critical race theory.
This is all stuff that I will literally fight and die for.
And I certainly won't join the people trying to overthrow him.
The servicemen of the United States make their pledge and oath to the Constitution of the United States.
Yes, and Joe Biden is definitely the prime defender of the Constitution of the United States, not someone who's busy mutilating it.
So it's very, very interesting to me that Joe Biden is so confident that he honestly thinks that the military-industrial complex of the United States and all of the soldiers that are part of it are just like, yes, I'm definitely signing with Joe Biden.
There's also something to mention here, which is, I wonder if there's an illegal argument then, because the President of the United States is saying that, well, to overthrow the government, you need F-15s and nukes, while the Second Amendment is there to overthrow the government, in which case, they're sort of arguing that not only should F-15s and nukes be legally able to be owned by the American public, but also that they should be reasonably available to the American public.
Because if you put undue barriers in the way of your right to keep and bear arms, then that's unconstitutional.
In which case there should be no undue barriers to accessing suitcase nukes for the American public.
Just looking forward to the Supreme Court decisions that make McNukes actually a human right.
Yeah, well, they are.
They literally are.
Literally turning America into fallout.
Oh, God.
I look forward to it.
So, then there's the next thing here, which is just also strange.
Like, I hate to keep doing this, but it's...
Because I remember with Trump, you know, there was honestly, oh, man has said this.
And to be honest, half the time it was based.
And that was the thing they were complaining about.
With Joe, it really is, like, incoherent and also absurd.
So, the next one here is from this chap, Benny, he's posted.
We all know Joe Biden has no clue what Latinx even is because Joe Biden decided to say that Latinx people, Latinos, for some reason he's adopted the woke language.
Mexicans.
That's what you're talking about.
Won't get the vaccine because they're all illegal and therefore they'll all be deported if they get the vaccine.
Let's go for the next clip.
It's awful hard as well to get Latinx vaccinated as well.
Why?
They're worried that they'll be vaccinated and deported.
Okay, so one of the things I like about this, so ignoring the word language for a minute, is just like, I love the idea that Latinx actually just means illegal Latino.
That's how we're going to do it.
The X is just for like, get out.
That's how I want to see it from now on.
But maybe he's speaking in the strict sense.
The number of Hispanic people who consider themselves to be Latinx is about 1%.
So maybe Joe Biden's like, well look, 1% of the Hispanics here are illegals and they don't want to get deported.
Yeah, so there's that, which is not great.
And then there's just the creepy stuff he does.
So he was giving a press conference after he made the statement about, you know, bring on the Civil War bros.
And this one here, it's not interesting at all, but it's just the meaner that's interesting.
So let's play the next clip so you can see.
I got them $1.9 trillion relief so far.
They're going to be getting checks in the mail that are consequential this week for child care.
Weird.
That's so strange.
One off?
Not one off.
It's my next one.
I'm not being critical, y'all.
I really mean this.
It was legitimate questions you're asking me.
Asking me, well, you know, guess what?
Employers can't find workers.
I said, yeah, pay them more.
Just a weird optics thing there?
Like, why?
Why do you have to literally be Creepy Joe?
But this is the worst argument as well, because, okay, right, on one hand, you have the free market, and the free market operates due to the constraints that it is under, you know, the amount of money that's available, the amount of workers that are available, the amount of demand that there is for various services and products.
And Joe Biden has come in and been like, yeah, so I'm the government.
I'm just going to give people loads of money.
And the free market are like, well, that means that people aren't working because you're literally paying them to sit at home.
And he's like, well, pay them more.
It's like, with what?
You know, we haven't got any workers, which means we can't earn any money, which means you've undermined our businesses.
You've already taken our money in the form of taxes and given it to people for not working.
Exactly.
How can we pay them more if you're literally using the state power to destroy our businesses?
Right.
How does that happen, Joe?
And moreover, why do you think that just bribing the American public with their own money is a good idea?
I mean, that's the opposite of prudence, in my opinion.
And especially the coronavirus is over.
Why don't you just drop it now?
But this is wild, and this is why it looks like he has been part of some kind of revolution.
I mean, he's completely changing the framework upon which the United States rests.
He's revising the Constitution, I guess is a generous way of putting it, when it comes to firearms.
He's completely upending the idea of people earning a living, and he's totally undermining private business.
So it looks like there's a kind of soft socialist revolution in play.
Which kind of makes me, like, this probably isn't the case, but I just, I really love the idea that he's done all that and be like, damn it, there's no civil war.
Right, I'll go out there and tell him to bring it on.
Well, exactly, and then he comes out and I'm like, yeah, you can't beat me.
You're going to need nukes and F-15s and tanks.
It's like, actually, that isn't what would be required, Joe.
The Taliban strongly disagree.
Well, every revolution disagrees.
Like, there's not one revolution that's required fighter jets.
I'm joking.
I'm trying to think of one.
Revolutionaries don't have access to fighter jets.
What they have access to are guerrilla fighters that go in and hit government targets at particular times during times of political crisis.
Now, I'm sure that everything will be smooth sailing for Joe Biden.
There'll be no political crisis at all.
But it's just wild.
And this is the thing.
After they took over and the The barricading of the Capitol with the razor wire, the 20,000 troops and stuff like that.
It's like, right, it really looks like they think there is some sort of soft coup going on from the Democrat side.
It just really looks like it.
And that's what you would do if you were just illegitimately taken over a country.
You would set up these sort of things.
It also kind of reminds me, I know you talk about the fact that his relationship with Xi Jinping is quite strange, his appreciation of the way China does things.
It comes off like that as well, because he's throwing the American project under the bus, the idea of a revolutionary war to save the liberties and all the rest of it.
And enshrying them in a constitution is a good thing.
That's not important or can happen, apparently.
And then he's like, yeah, what you'd need is F-15s and stuff, and you don't have that, peasants, therefore you can't rise up.
I mean, this is the message the Chinese party gives off to its people, which is there's no point rising up.
Come on, look at all these tanks we have at the parade.
There's nothing you can do.
But why even bring it up?
Why is he talking about this?
Why are they acting as if the American public is a clear and present threat to their administration?
Like, why is this on their mind, you know?
That's the thing.
Like, at no point during Trump's administration did I actually think there was going to be an active uprising against Trump from a bunch of latte-sipping soy boys, right?
I mean, there were insurrectionists.
They were throwing firebombs at the government buildings.
There were, but they weren't going to, like, try and overthrow the US government.
We'll get into how Trump was going to deal with them.
We will.
But this is the thing.
Joe Biden genuinely seems like they know they've done something wrong.
That's the point.
They're acting as if they're illegitimate.
These are not the actions of legitimate presidents.
Legitimate presidents don't discuss nuking the American public or fighting a war against- Being nuked by the American public.
Or being nuked by the American public.
They don't discuss how the entire American project was actually fundamentally a mistake.
But this thing, just the vibe I'm getting out of the Biden administration is one of total illegitimacy.
Anyway, so the last thing here is just a, let's say, senior moment at least, in which Joe Biden, the puppet, is trying to walk away and then the President of the United States, Kamala Harris, comes in and reminds him that he needs to talk about the tragedy in Florida, which is pretty weird.
So let's play this clip.
Will you travel to Florida, sir?
Can we ask you about Florida, what you've learned about Florida?
Oh yes, I apologize.
Yes, thank you.
My friend.
I've seen a bunch of pictures of her as well where they keep taking photos for like the White House, you know, Twitter page and whatnot.
And it'll be like Joe with some people and then she's like in the corner of the photo and it looks really weird.
I should have got it up, but I didn't get it in time.
Anyway, last thing to best on is just some leftist regret, because who doesn't like some leftist regret?
Oh, I love it.
Biden voters posting their regret on lines, let's say.
So the next link here is a lady.
Did you call her my present?
I didn't hear it.
What did she say?
Oh, Biden said...
Oh my god, did he?
This isn't the first time where he said President Harris, is it?
I think it's like the 10th now or something.
He was giving a press conference the other day, and he literally said, I've been told to say.
And it's like, aren't you the president?
And they've previously disavowed his statements from the White House, the Biden administration.
Yeah, so would I, so fair enough.
Well, yeah, but...
But this is the point.
There's clearly something illegitimate going on here.
And the signs of it are leaking out of the administration in the things that they're doing, and they can't help themselves.
So the last thing here is just this lady.
I think she's the one who went to the inauguration, in fact, and gave that really weird poem that was really creepy.
Oh yeah, the Hunger Games woman.
Yeah, the Hunger Games woman.
Yeah, I remember.
So this is her.
So this is in response to an article which posts, Biden warning of crime wave diverts COVID funds to police in snub to progressives.
Get wrecked progressives.
So this was the thing I believe we spoke about yesterday in which he's refunding the police.
So we took a lot of money away from the police.
Except he's not just refunding it back to 100%.
It's more.
So he's giving even more than was before.
Must be something to do with all the crime.
Yeah, it's obvious.
But the sneaky thing he's done is he's made it available.
You don't have to take it.
So it's up to the local authorities to take it.
So the left-wing areas won't take it.
The right-wing areas probably don't need it.
But they'll take it anyway.
It's free cash.
Of course, why not?
So it's not going to help the people who actually need help because of ideological reasons.
Yeah, so it won't actually help the areas that are turning into hellholes.
But at least the Republican strongholds will just get more police, I guess, so they can keep the hellholes in the hellholes.
Well, you're going to need it for when Joe Biden just decides he's going to announce the Civil War.
Yeah, so this is her posting at Elle Online.
Perfect example of how neoliberalism creates social instability by starving communities of resources and then puts taxpayer dollars towards expanding the police state instead.
Well, you vote for it.
Yeah, yeah.
Enjoy your presidency.
Anyway, that's that.
Orange Man was great.
Orange Man didn't do nothing.
Literally.
I mean, what has he done wrong?
Nothing.
Everything that he was saying has come true as well.
But also every criticism the left has of him, in which they might find some agreement with average people or even right-wingers, is something that Biden does.
Trump made a bunch of predictions.
They all came true.
A bunch of statements were all correct.
They lambasted at the time, but it turned out they matured very well.
What's Biden going to say or do that's going to mature well?
Not much, I would suggest.
It was all a ruse.
This next year, he's like, how have I not bit the post?
I can't believe you guys haven't caught on yet.
Trump really won, obviously.
Anyway, yeah.
So, Critical Race Theory very well might destroy America, in my view, because I don't know what's happening to this country, but good God.
So, the first thing here is a catch-up from yesterday.
So, we did the story on the catfight between Joy Reid and Christopher Rufo.
You did great, by the way.
It's fantastic as well.
And I love how pathetic she looked, and it's been noticed by the audience.
So him posting here some screenshots of the clip they put up in which they titled it Joy Reid School's Critical Race Theory Critic on Legal Scholarship.
Yeah.
Schooled.
And yeah, you can see the likes and dislikes there.
Yeah.
And the thing is, you look at her body language, she looks like she's getting owned.
And he did a great job here because the defensive tactic that critical theorists have been employing now is saying, well, the only people who ever talk about critical race theory are legal scholars.
And so if you're not a legal scholar, you're not involved in critical race theory.
It's like, okay, then we don't need to talk about it in our schools then.
Don't need to talk about it in government or anywhere else.
Oh no, yes we do.
It's like, okay, then that's critical race theory.
No, that's not in the legal school.
So it's like, this is what they've defaulted to to defence.
But that's really great, actually.
Because what they're essentially saying is, yes, this is indefensible in every walk of life.
And if you challenge it outside, then we're going to pretend we're not doing it.
So that's good.
That's a good admission that, in fact, this is cancer.
It is destroying the United States.
It's destroying civic society in general.
And they know it.
So anyway, it's good to see the people dunking on the corporate media here.
It's her being a product of that and a standard bearer for it, which is one of the weird things about all this, like critical race theory, wokeism, all the rest of it.
It's very elitist, very academic.
It's very part of the corporate world, not part of people.
So if we go to the next one here, she mentioned also that Kendi X... Ibram Kendi, yeah.
She claimed that he said he was never a critical race theorist, or at least that's what he said, and yet there are quotes of him saying pretty much exactly that.
He is.
So I've certainly been inspired by my critical race theory and critical race theorists.
It's a quote from him.
Oh, and what's that?
Kimberley Crenshaw, the sexual theorist and critical race theorist?
My god, I can't believe how this is all adding up.
Yeah, so that's embarrassing.
And if you're wondering why they do this, these people in particular, well, that's for the grift.
I'm just going to say it.
Like, for people like him, definitely the grift.
Because we have the receipts.
So this is a post, and if you can click on this, you can see 25,000 US dollars for cost of service for him to give a keynote speech to a leadership conference.
Nice work if you can get it.
$25,000.
I think that grift is not necessarily the right word, though, to be honest.
In the same way that...
I think it has to encompass the person not truly believing it.
Yeah, exactly.
And I think they do truly believe it.
In the case of this, the amount of money he's making for that, Jesus Christ.
Yeah.
I mean, I do think the critical race theorists do genuinely believe it, but what has happened here is the unionization of racists against white people in America.
And so I don't think grifting is appropriate, but it is something that smells very much like grifting.
But the point I was going to make has just left my mind, so carry on.
But anyway, the specifics of this, I think, might change your mind.
So if you click out of this and scroll down to the tweet just below it, there's actually an example of the speech.
You might think, oh, he went to a big hall.
No, he did it online.
He did a Zoom call.
25 grand Zoom call.
He did 25 grand Zoom call to a handful of people.
Oh, that's what I was going to say.
Self-interest.
It's all about self-interest from the people involved.
Because either they are themselves black or non-white, and so they will be deliberately...
Obviously profiting from the idea of telling white people that they are the perennial oppressors of blacks and nothing about that can change.
Or they're people like Robin DiAngelo who, again, makes fat stacks out of self-flagellation.
DiAngelo, being obviously an Italian name, following in the Catholic tradition of guilt.
Corruption.
Well, and corruption, yeah.
But again, I don't think you can necessarily call this corruption.
It's just a kind of popularized form of Catholic guilt.
That's coming very, very strongly across from D'Angelo.
Specifically with her, there's an instance in which she gave a talk for like 10 grand at some university, and then a black person with exactly the same qualifications gave a talk like a week later, got 7 grand.
So it's like, hmm, hmm, okay, yeah.
But the point is, it's direct self-interest that's the heart and foundation of all of this.
Anyway, so we go to the next one here.
This is just an example of the fact that this is very profitable.
I mean, in the UK as well.
White privilege.
If you just look up jobs about equality, inclusion, diversity, or BAME. A thousand BAME jobs.
BAME jobs.
Jobs for BAMes.
Hmm, yeah.
This doesn't sound dehumanizing, does it?
Christ.
So, if we go to the next one as well, what's the Left review on this?
So their review is that the Republicans are full-on hallucinating over critical race theory.
So says CNN here.
What?
So the corporate mouthpiece for the Left.
Republicans are hallucinating.
Are we hallucinating their textbooks?
Yeah.
And they're activists.
And the 25 grand that they get paid for their Zoom calls is all just a fever dream.
Yeah, like that 25 grand is not real money.
It's like Starbucks money.
Why did I read all this crap if it's not real?
Why did I do that?
Why do people spend so much money on the tuition?
So she starts this monologue with saying, it's MacArthurism all over again?
God, I wish.
Does she mean MacArthurism?
I presume so, but I really want it to be that.
And we have some flavour of that, shall we say, in which people are being held to account for being socialists with the highest orders of the US government, because it's antithetical to the founding principles and ideology of the United States.
Yes.
You can't have these people running a government.
It doesn't make goddamn sense.
It's like having Islamists running the US government.
You think that's proper, is it?
Well, you end up with a president who expects a civil war, a counter-revolution, to come after him, and then starts literally destroying private industry by buying off people so they don't work.
So this is the thing that really caught my eye.
So Breitbart posting here, top US military officer's defense of critical race theory to understand white rage, Stokes' controversy.
Yeah, just a little bit.
So this is a guy who...
I don't understand the position.
You can't even describe it without being racist.
That's the thing.
I know.
So I don't understand the organization of the United States Army or how this guy got his position, and I'm not going to go after that because I don't know.
But the statements he gave are absurd.
So if we go to the first clip here, this is him and the statement he gave that caused everyone to think, what the hell?
But I do think it's important actually for those of us in uniform to be open-minded and be widely read and the United States Military Academy is a university and it is important that we train and we understand and I want to understand white rage and I'm white and I want to understand it.
So what is it that caused thousands of people to assault this building and try to overturn the Constitution of the United States of America?
What caused that?
I want to find that out.
I want to maintain an open mind here, and I do want to analyze it.
It's important that we understand that, because our soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, and guardians, they come from the American people.
So it is important that the leaders, now and in the future, do understand it.
I've read Mao Zedong.
I've read Karl Marx.
I've read Lenin.
That doesn't make me a communist.
So what is wrong with understanding, having some situational understanding about the country for which we are here to defend?
Okay, yeah.
You read Marx, say, right?
But then you aren't sitting there going, look, I just want to understand why the proletariat aren't rising up.
That's all I want.
You are adopting the axioms and framework of Marx by introducing that word and that language and that structure into the questions that you're asking, and therefore you are being a Marxist.
Saying, oh, well, it's white rage?
Well, what about the non-white people there?
There was some guy called John who was a Black Lives Matter supporter.
He wasn't white.
Like, he was arrested and let go.
How is he white rage?
And if, obviously, this doesn't work and it doesn't, then it must be nonsense.
So, in case people don't know, White Rage is a book that was written and is full of the argument that effectively there's a unique psychological disease that affects white people only.
I like the idea of a disease that only affects certain races.
Don't know where that came out.
And it's that whenever brown-skinned people gain any kind of power, white people get rage, and therefore they get, you know, psychological upset.
And that's what caused the storming of the Capitol in this guy's mind, or at least that's what he's arguing is he wants to understand.
That's not you reading Mao or, as you say, Lenin or Marx, and then just understanding it and realizing that's the enemy.
You've adopted their axioms.
You've adopted their language.
You are saying that white rage causes storming of the capital in your own words there.
And also there's the point raised by Tucker Carlson.
While it's nice that you've been reading Marx and whatnot to understand the enemy, have you read Hitler?
Have you read any white supremacist literature recently?
No, because you'd be fired.
You'd be fired on spy then.
I bet there is no way that there's a huge section on just like, here's white nationalism, enjoy boys.
There would be a huge outrage about it.
More importantly, if you read anything libertarian recently, that would be more interesting.
But if he's trying to understand the enemy, he gives the word situational understanding there.
Sure, I mean, if you're trying to understand Communist China, you need to read...
Oh yeah, I read all this junk.
So there's also the point, like, if he's reading Wokism, then, is it to put down the Wokus?
Because, I mean, if that was an excuse, then yeah, okay, fair enough.
Then saying, okay, it's the white rage of the Republicans.
No, what it is, it's very obvious that there are two paradigms in play.
One is the traditional Republican-American paradigm, and the other one is obviously the continental European paradigm that views the state as the author of human rights.
Whereas the Republicans view God as the author of human rights.
And these are currently in conflict.
We've got this conflict going on in Britain.
It's obviously going on in America.
And this is the source of what the Republicans are angry about.
Now, it's not explicitly couched in that language.
Obviously, I'm giving a much more academic explanation of it.
But this is what is driving the problems that they see.
And so when you come in and go, right, we have a problem with this race or that race.
It's horrific.
It's anathema to them.
They're like, no, we're not here to talk about race.
We're here to talk about individual rights.
No part of the US government should be doing this, least the military.
That was what was wrong with the Democrats when they were persecuting black people.
And now what's wrong with the Democrats when they're trying to help black people?
It seems to be just a problem with the Democrats.
So he goes on to say that it's offensive to accuse the military of being woke because they put their lives on the line.
What are you going to do?
Cry about it, Snowflake?
But also the idea that it's offensive to accuse them of being woke.
Look at that language.
It's offensive to accuse us of being woke.
Well, then it's a bad thing.
Stop being woke.
Like, it's a bad thing to be woke.
That's what you're saying by that.
Then stop doing it.
And then I have to ask, well, why is the US Army, Navy and Air Force full of the damn thing?
But why are they like, oh, well, we found that offensive.
Oh, I guess the Taliban were much more collegial when they were talking to you, were they?
So this is the first thing here as an example.
So just US Air Force, and then some guy, celebration of diversity and making sure we understand that flesh-coloured Band-Aids is not about being politically correct.
It's a war-fighting imperative.
Can't win this war unless the band-aids match the flesh colour of the soldiers.
Yeah, so this was widely knocked.
Air Force have done some other things that are a bit sus.
So we go to the next one.
You can see them enacting the South Park version of Operation Get Behind the Dark.
I mean, literally, it's the meme.
So they decided to celebrate the first all-African-American flight crew in which all the flight crew were black.
And this was a huge celebration for them.
Why?
How is this not some form of segregation?
Like, you've segregated them off with their own plane.
You know what?
There is something different about the blacks.
Say, the US Air Force.
We need to honour them and treat them as if they're different and special.
Like, we celebrated the segregation of the forces in the 30s, and now we're doing it again in 2020s.
We will have to...
Next war, we get another pamphlet from the Americans, you know?
In Britain, they don't actually treat black people like they're different to whites.
Just get ready for that.
You're going to have to start making the films again.
It's literally come back around.
Yeah.
But also, why are the US accounts online so bitter about people disagreeing with them?
So if we go to the next one here, you can see the US Army acting like a child.
So they made some post in which they're like, yeah, diversity is our strength, and then some guy disagreed.
His account has been suspended, because of course they have.
You know, anybody who disagrees ends up disappearing off those platforms.
And they responded with a gif of some guy saying false, like a Have you not seen The Office?
I've not seen The Office, no.
Dwight, sorry.
So saying, diversity is just another reason why the hashtag army team is so strong.
And then you can learn more at a link that's just about diversity and inclusion.
I love the way that they think they're going to recruit Twitter millennials into the army.
It's so stupid.
Why does the army have a Twitter account?
You don't need a Twitter account.
But, I mean, what is the US Army for?
Well, that's a good question.
It's for making Twitter millennials.
Representation, I suppose.
So says the Department of Defense.
Let's go for the next one.
Department of Defense posting that watch as Jackie Hyatt explains how the US Army Reserve prepared her for her career as a beauty influencer and diversity activist with her millions of social media followers.
I just cringe beyond measure.
You can't sit there and be like, there's no wokeness in the US military when there's tons of it.
And it's all online, permanently.
It's never going to disappear.
I tell you what, if I was in the US military, I would be that meme where it's just like the guy, here today we fight under a new banner and then he's the guy who looks like, I hope we lose.
I mean, I'm just, if you've got to fight for wokeness and diversity and intolerance, yeah, I hope we lose.
Why are we in the US Army Reserve to be beauty activists and diversity activists?
But again, it's so mercenary.
I hate it.
It's just a person fighting for themselves.
Oh, I'm the most important thing.
That's not exactly the message you want in your military.
No, you're here for, well, in Britain's case, Queen and Country, in America for the Constitution, not for you.
You're actually expendable.
You're going to die possibly doing this, and you'll be doing it heroically for a greater reason, an ideal.
No, I'm doing it for my beauty vlogging.
So we go to the next one.
This is obviously a thing that's been widely mocked as well in the recruitment ads.
I mean, just look at that image, the difference between military, army, American army.
Yes, I would much rather join the Russian military at this point.
And then there's just the quotes from the people inside the army.
I don't think they're going to forcibly transition me.
So the next one here is a link in which someone's saying the problem with the woke military.
And he says, we are also told by the Biden-appointed Defence Secretary, Leon Austin, that it must be a priority for the military to, quote, look like America, and not only in the ranks, but our leadership should look like America, end quote.
So he says, They're all going to be catboys, aren't they?
They're all going to be catboys, aren't they?
Yeah, this is how the US is going to fall.
Again, this is you guys being white.
I mean, this is why I'm saying this stuff.
I'm just destroying the United States.
Taken over from the inside by a bunch of what are essentially European socialists who have abolished the foundational principles upon which the United States rests and are now corrupting all of your institutions until they are no longer fit for purpose.
That's how America is going to fall.
Yeah, so also there's memes coming out of this tomorrow at the Pentagon from Jack Posobiec.
We can get the next one up.
Yeah, that's what we expect.
So we get the next one.
But Han, before we go on to the next one, this is exactly what I mean about critical race theory being used as a tool of self-interest for critical race theorists.
All white people are racist.
Pay me.
Why you?
Why her?
Why can't we pay some other black person?
Why can't we find a black person who's literally got no money at all and pay them?
It should be, in all essence, the same.
And instead, she's just arguing for her own personal self-interest.
The socialists are also widely applauding this man for defending white rage.
We've got the next one.
This is Rashida Tlaib.
Opposition to critical race theory is obviously rooted in racism.
Great.
Great.
Yeah.
Just if you disagree, you're a racist.
Yeah, but you are a racist and you think everyone is a racist and it seems that you have no other language but race.
Like, the segregationists are calling us racist.
Yeah, okay.
I'm not going to listen.
The funny news that came out of this is apparently this general, this guy, refused Trump's suggestion to crack skulls over the riots.
We've got the next one here.
Jack Posobiec saying that he predicted this and it turned out to be true.
And then the next link, this is CNN, in which they have the conversation that supposedly took place.
Which is to say, Trump's language became increasingly violent during the Oval Office meetings as protests in Seattle and Portland began to receive attention from cable news outlets.
Right.
People in the chat, press S to spit on CNN, calling terrorism protests.
Not interested in that.
They're throwing goddamn petrol bombs.
Protests.
They say, quote from Trump, That's how you're supposed to handle these people, Trump told his top law enforcement and military officials, according to Bender.
Crack their skulls.
Trump also told his team that he wanted the military to go and beat the F out of the civil rights protesters.
Oh yes, they're just protesting civil rights.
So when they're burning down cities, murdering people in the streets, that's a protest for civil rights.
Just shoot them, Trump said on multiple occasions inside the Oval Office, according to the experts.
And when Milley and then-General William Barr were pushed back, Trump toned in a little bit and said, we'll shoot them in the leg, or maybe the foot, but hard on them.
So, Trump sounding base.
Because we're not dealing with civil rights protests.
Is there any crap that CNN's trying to put?
We have the pictures.
We go to the next one.
This is Portland Molotovs.
Molotovs, plural.
There's loads of them that have been thrown.
And then we have the next one.
We just have the IED that was thrown at the courthouse.
Yeah, I was going to say setting fire and bombing courthouses.
Actual terrorists.
Chaz in Seattle.
I mean, there have been four shootings in Chaz.
We go to the next one.
This is just the list of all the shootings there.
And then it just goes on and on.
Just to say, the very nature of an autonomous zone, what it is is an insurrection.
This is, say, this is no longer the United States.
This should be unacceptable to any commander-in-chief.
So there's, you know, the idea that he's looking at terrorism, people throwing firebombs, and it's like, yeah, just shoot them.
Because they're using deadly force.
If you use deadly force against the police, they will use deadly force back.
But this is so obviously the result of communist subversion.
Like, this is what they do.
This is what Yuri Bezmenov is talking about.
To get them to rise up, to cause instability, when why?
What's the problem?
You know, there isn't really a problem.
The last thing I have here is about exactly that, in which, if you scroll up here, there's a training manual that people are whining about, because it does, for a training recruit going into the US military, if they can identify what socialists, anarchists, and whatnot have in common, and it's the fact that they're all terrorist ideologies as listed, you know, what do these terrorist ideologies have in common?
Socialists, anarchists, neo-Nazis.
Yeah, because it is.
It is a terrorist ideology.
Like, you can carry out terrorism in the name of socialism.
Yeah.
And all they're doing there is just asking the recruit to understand basic knowledge about ideological groups.
Yeah.
So it's not improper in the slightest.
But I thought we'd just end on a parent fighting back against critical race theory in the best possible way of blowing the stitching scoreboard out.
So let's just go for this last clip to end on.
I'm going to quote to you, solicitor.
I'm quoting just a minute.
Do not talk over me.
This is my comment, not your comment.
I'm quoting to you now from the United States Supreme Court 1964 case, New York Times v.
Sullivan.
The judges wrote that This nation is founded on the, quote, profound national commitment to the principle that debate on public issues shall be uninhibited, robust, and wide open, and that it may well include vehement, caustic, and sometimes unpleasantly sharp attacks on government and public officials.
That's constitutional case law in this nation.
I don't have to be nice to you.
Nobody behind me has to be nice to you.
If you don't like living in the United States of America, then you can all move to Russia, Cuba, or China.
This is the First Amendment.
And I will caution you, solicitor.
There is a video camera to my left.
If you edit this tape, then you're going to have a big legal problem on your hands.
Because my right to critique your fascism, which is what this is, It's constitutionally protected.
There are emails, public record emails, in which the Director of Equity is lobbying and advocating for public comment to be censored in this school district.
And you know what?
Lobbying for it, advocating for it.
We've got the school board president saying she'll do better at hitting the moot button in blatant violation of the Constitution.
For her lobbying and her advocacy of unconstitutional censorship, I want you, the school board, to terminate the employment of Dr.
Theresa Gibson with immediate effect.
I love it.
Chad.
I absolutely love the parents who are rising up in the US. It salutes to every single one of them.
They've all been fantastic.
That's a personal favourite of mine, though.
Which is just like, I don't have to be nice to you.
No one in this room has to be nice to you.
You don't like it, go to China.
Yeah, yeah.
True.
I agree.
And don't let up the pressure either.
Keep going.
Keep giving them hell.
It has to happen.
Because otherwise, the whole thing, the shape of the cathedral is becoming apparent.
You know, the The organization surrounding Biden and its tendrils in all of the other organizations is becoming deeply apparent, and it comes from this disrespecting of the American Constitution.
If they don't respect what the Constitution is saying, then you can see that they're a European socialist, and they feel that it's up for debate.
But anyway, right.
So, let's talk about Mumford& Sons and their banjo player, Winston Marshall.
Now, I've never heard of their music.
I have no interest in the band at all, in the same way that I don't watch football, and yet I still have to comment on football because it gets political, because politics is everywhere, and what can these people do?
And so it turns out that their banjo player had read Andy Ngo's book back in March, and he decided to tweet this out.
As this left-wing media site puts out, he shared a book which comes complete with a note of praise from conservative talking head Tuck Carlson.
He says, congratulations Andy Ngo, finally had the time to read your important book, you're a brave man.
We've got the book, haven't we?
Yeah.
We've got Unmastered back there.
It's a good book.
It is a good book.
Andy Ngo and his anti-Antifa beliefs shot to prominence in June 2019 upon attending a far-right rally in counter-protest in Portland.
Footage from the event shows Ngo being punched and kicked before being egg-sprayed with silly string and having a milkshake dumped on his head.
Right, so he was abused by a bunch of communists.
Marshall's tweet is not the first time Mumford& Sons have been called out for their embrace of controversial figures.
After their bassist Ted Duane and keyboardist welcomed Dr.
Jordan Peterson to their studio in 2018.
Ah yes, Dr.
Jordan Peterson.
The fascist.
But anyway, so yesterday he put up a blog post on his Medium account explaining that he is leaving Mumford& Sons.
And here are a few extracts from it.
"I believed that my tweet was going to be as innocuous as the others, how wrong I turned out to be.
"Of the course of 24 hours it was trending with tens of thousands of angry retweets and comments.
"I failed to foresee that my commenting on a book critical of the far left "could be interpreted as approval of the equally abhorrent far right.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Thirteen members of my family were murdered in concentration camps in the Holocaust.
My grandma, unlike her cousins, aunts and uncles, survived.
She and I were close.
My family knows the evils of fascism painfully well, so the least who call me a fascist is ludicrous beyond belief.
The distress brought to them and their families that weekend I regret very much.
I remain sincerely sorry for that, and intentionally I'd put them into a divisive and totemic issue.
Despite pressure to nix me, they invited me to continue with the band.
That took courage, particularly in the age of so-called cancel culture.
I made an apology and agreed to take a temporary step back.
Rather predictably, another viral mob came after me.
So after he's apologised.
Another viral mob came after me, this time for the sin of apologising.
Then followed libelous articles calling me right-wing and such.
I just love the right wing.
Half of people are right wing.
Like, half of them are left wing.
And that's loud.
That's normal.
Although there's nothing wrong with being a conservative, when forced to politically label myself, I flutter between centrist, liberal, or a bit more honest, bit this, bit that.
Being labelled erroneously just goes to show how binary political discourse has become.
I criticise the left, so I must be right.
Also, their logic goes.
So why leave the band?
On the eve of his leaving to the West, Solzhenitsyn published an essay titled Live Not By Lies.
And he says, when I un-mess up my keyboard...
He says, It's all the same to me so long as I'm fed and kept warm.
I could remain and continue to self-censor, but it will erode my sense of integrity, nor my conscience.
I've already felt that beginning.
The only way forward for me is to leave the band.
I hope in distancing myself from them I am able to speak my mind without them suffering the consequences.
So it was actually a very thoughtful and sensitive response.
What do you make of it?
That's true.
I just don't understand why him leaving, he thinks, would be the correct thing to do.
I mean, they've hung out with Jordan Peterson, so I don't think they're ever going to come back from that.
But I mean, like, the whole band should just be like, well, sort of.
Like, we're allowed to have a view occasionally.
You would think so, wouldn't you?
Yeah.
That would have been the more appropriate thing to do in my mind.
Yeah.
But I mean, you know, who knows?
I'm not going to...
Yeah, I don't know the details of that.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm not going to, you know, speculate on things that I have no idea about in the internal workings of the relationships with the band.
But I thought that was, you know, a very courageous and noble thing to do.
I mean, he wants to be able to speak on subjects that are weighing on his conscience because, I mean, we've been through in this podcast how awful Antifa are and the terrible catastrophe that is approaching the United States.
And so, of course, let's go to Twitter for the very, very intelligent response.
So the first one, it's honestly impressive to be too white for Mumford& Sons.
Good critique, Jess.
Good critique.
Everyone walked away from that thinking, yeah, that showed in.
If you dislike socialist terrorism, you're white.
And that's what's wrong with you.
The next one is from someone whose bio describes themselves as 23, gay, brown, socialist.
He, him.
Palestine flag.
Palestine flag.
Honey, the world left Mumford and Sons in 2014.
Good luck with the fascism, though.
He's not becoming a socialist, Neil.
He's pointing out his opposition to socialism.
The next ones are weird because for some reason they seem to think that Andy Ngo has been providing kill lists to Atom Waffen.
Atomwaffen being a prescribed neo-Nazi terrorist group.
I mean, I don't know much about them beyond that, because why would you need to?
I mean, I don't know, but I assume they're constantly under the thumb of the intelligence services, as they should be, as Antifa should be.
But Andy knows a threat to our community and provides kill lists for Atomwaffen.
I'm just going to say made-up lie.
I'm going to default to that being a made-up lie.
But this is something they've posted a few times, haven't they?
But anyway, so yeah, this is Cope.
If we can go on to the next one, John.
So this is just a bunch of Cope that Rory found on the twatter.
Now that he's free to express his views without worrying about affecting his bandmates, I'm sure we'll see him lining up alongside knowing his type.
Okay.
Yeah, he's going to go hang out with conservatives.
I don't know.
Also, wasn't there an incident in a recording studio involving some right-wingers?
Ooh!
Before the no incident?
Yeah, John Peterson.
Sorry, you stood next to a right-winger.
That's where we are now.
But, yeah, as you can see, this is all just mad.
And, like, this one here.
All I did was, like, agree with a known fascist who puts leftists on Atomwaffen kill lists.
How could I have possibly known this might negatively impact me?
This is just such a bizarre...
And that's a verified checkmark, obviously.
So, you know, big brain takes.
But this is mad.
This is such a weird narrative that they've conjured out of what appears to be nothing.
No evidence is provided for this allegation, and I just find it really hard to believe.
You know, verified checkmark leftists are on a first-name basis with the members of Armin Waffen, surely, to get this kind of information.
Well, yeah, I mean, I suppose they know.
Let's go on to the next one, John.
Not bothered whether he leaves them or not, it's the attempt to make an equivalence between an actual threat of the, quote, far left and far right that's wrong-headed.
Anyone even having a tiny bit of respect, no one needs to give their head a shake.
Well, I've got massive respect for him, so I'm going to have to shoot myself.
Gina, buy his book!
Yeah, but what I love about this, the actual threat of the far left, I mean, we do have, what, 30 people from the Black Lives Matter, how many were killed for Antifar?
Probably a dozen or so.
Multiple terrorist attacks, bombings of government facilities, multiple instances.
Millions of dollars of property damage, people's lives being ruined that way.
And what have the far right done?
New Zealand?
Yeah, that's a good point.
So one...
That's it.
That's all I can think of.
Norway?
That was a while ago.
Yeah, but wasn't that like 97 or something?
When did Brevik?
That was literally a decade ago.
It's not 2020s.
No, it's not.
And so, yeah, it's just bizarre.
And I love Mike P. Williams.
Again, another verified checkmark.
You retweeted and praised a known member of the alt-right with far-right and fascist ties.
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
Andy Noah is not a member of the alt-right because the alt-right is a white identitarian movement.
I'm not sure how they feel about the Vietnamese.
Fellow whites, maybe?
Yeah, but this was also one of my favourites.
This is from a Twitter account called RespectIsVital.
No, sorry, the next one.
The next one, of course.
RespectIsVital, Sir Alex.
He says, the far right are uplording Mumford& Sons banjo player for quitting as he wants to be able to continue with his views, espousing his views about the far left.
Why shouldn't he be able to do that?
His family are multi-millionaires, so don't buy into the slumming-it-on-the-road spiel either.
And he knows a fascist danger.
Okay, well, let's go to...
I mean, this guy's bio, if you want to hear it.
Disabled, Muslim, father-husband, BPD and blood cancer, Black Army, charity shop worker...
Okay.
No pronouns, though.
Weird.
Weird.
Wow, you're a fascist, though.
Yeah, we're a fascist.
I should correct ourselves, actually, because we just mentioned far-right terrorist attacks.
The eco-fascists in New Zealand would be a leftist, and if Kravik was a fascist, he'd also be a leftist.
I don't really know his ideology.
I'm trying to think of a far-right terrorist attack that would be legitimate, I mean, in the sense of actually hyper-conservatism.
Saudi Arabia is the far-right, if we're correct about this.
In which case, I can't think of any monarchist uprisings.
Well, they don't necessarily have to be monarchist.
They could just be heavily hyper-traditional, as you say.
Yeah, hyper-religious.
Well, I can't.
ISIS, there we go.
Well, yeah, I guess ISIS, but I don't think that really ISIS mapped well onto the Enlightenment left-right paradigm.
No.
I think that ISIS could be considered a separate entity.
But anyway, let's go to Barry Weiss for the far-right response.
If you're looking for integrity, look no further.
Blown away by this, Mr.
Winston Marshall.
Wow.
Okay, that's one Nazi response.
The next Nazi was Ayaan Hirsi Ali.
Your integrity is intact, and your honesty is deeply moving.
That's what that Nazi says.
Claire Lehman of Quillettes, another famous Nazi.
Winston Marshall is a man of integrity.
Mm-hmm.
Right, okay.
Angela Richardson, she's a conservative MP. Must be a Nazi.
I love the music of Monthers and Sons.
Now cancel culture has cancelled one of its talents.
I wish Winston Marshall didn't feel that he needed to walk away to maintain his integrity.
What are we doing to ourselves, our creatives, our talents, our freedom to speak?
That sounds just like a Nazi.
Calvin Robinson, another Nazi.
This heartbreaking but inevitable.
Mr.
Winston Marshall is one of the kindest, most genuine people I know.
Yeah, well, that's Nazi sympathies.
He who is not sufficiently courageous to defend his soul.
Don't let him be proud of his progressive views.
Good to see you taking a stand.
And then we get just...
I thought we'd end this bit with a wonderful, wonderful interpretation from one of these leftists who...
Mask in the bio.
Is that going to be a new thing?
No, no.
I think we'll call them academic banjo players.
Okay.
She says, this, without a single hint of exaggeration, is one of the top ten funniest things I've ever read.
Because he's resigned because of Andy Ngo.
Is that okay?
And she also says, listen to Aubrey Atwater briefly and succinctly explain the connections between Appalachia, folk music, the banjo, the history of slavery, and African music.
What?
Mumford and Sons are as racist because slavery and the banjo.
Yes.
African Appalachians are playing their banjos just as they did back in the Congo.
Okay.
But she ends it with, and this is in all caps.
Is she British as well?
I have no idea.
God, I don't know, and I don't want to.
But she ends in all caps.
If the banjo player from Mumford& Sons was a fan of Andy Ngo, he seriously messed up his understanding of the instrument and the music it was made to play.
Sorry, this banjo has teleological significance.
Only a slave can play a banjo, don't you know?
And I'm going to put this in all caps on Twitter, as if this is some sort of intellectual statement.
As if you're not allowed to play a banjo any way you bloody like.
No, the banjo is designed.
According to the left, no.
I mean, this is cultural appropriation as well, so, I mean...
Banjo, traditional slave instrument.
If you're not a slave, you can't play it.
That is the leftist position.
If it's not part of your race, you can't use it.
Stick to your own race.
I mean, that's their position on the list.
So mad.
I love it so much.
But yeah, so good on Winston for sticking to his guns and following his conscience.
I think that's very noble.
Not doing what pathetic people will do, which is to turn around and endorse socialist terrorism after being criticised for disavowing it.
On Twitter.
Yeah.
Go to the video comments.
Right, lads, so I voted for the Reform Party in the most recent election, even though there's probably no chance they're going to get in.
Although I did vote for Boris in 2019, but I feel a lot of people are still voting for Boris just on the fact that they don't like Labour.
Now, I agree I don't like Labour, but I feel like this is the same argument that the people who voted for Biden made in 2020.
Even though they hated Biden, it was just to spite the Republicans and Trump.
I feel like this is going to go back and forth and back and forth.
Does this not make us the same as them?
And what is the answer if there is one?
I mean, in some way, when you say the same, as in people who are engaging in democracy, yes.
Unfortunately, you have to take into consideration electoral calculus when dealing with democratic systems, and it's not fun, pleasant, or interesting, and it sometimes means that you have to endorse people you hate.
Thankfully, that didn't happen with me supporting Trump.
Unfortunately, it did happen with me supporting the Conservatives.
I don't really mind what happens as long as Labour dies.
Just as long as the Labour vote keeps getting killed, I have no problem.
No problem whatsoever.
They should just disappear from existence.
But the thing is, I don't think there's anything necessarily that is actually able to change about that.
It's just the nature of the beast.
Yeah, there is.
I mean, we can help kill it faster.
We've been doing a good job.
Killing democracy.
Killing Labour.
The Labour Party just should die outright, and that would solve a lot of our problems at least.
That is true.
And I would like it if something like the Reclaimer Reform or Heritage Party, one of the new...
Yeah, that versus Conservatives.
That would be nice, yeah.
Also, fair warning, I have quite literally no experience with editing and I own this, and you can kind of see the editing right here and the quality behind it.
I don't have the same style as Carl when it comes to the politics of.
Mine has a bit more of a joke, because in the introduction video I have an opening skit about punching Carl in the face and taking the No, I don't know either.
Okay.
Next one.
Sorry, editing's not my fault.
Is it just me, or is young Mr.
Burton growing himself a mullet and a moustache, calling himself Elliot, and putting on a Skys accent?
What's up?
Just a terrible attempt at avoiding his Beatles shame.
Hey guys, just a quick note on the HMS Defender.
It's one of our beautiful Type 45 destroyers.
Its main purpose is to defend the fleet from incoming enemy aircraft.
It uses a Sea Viper anti-aircraft system.
It's pretty much the most sophisticated one on the planet.
To attack that ship with a single Russian fighter would be, let's say, Cavalier.
See, I didn't look into this much, but I do actually quite enjoy the British government's response to Russia.
It's like, we're shooting at you.
It's like, no, you're not.
It's surprisingly Chad.
I didn't look into it much either, but Josh has been for that purpose.
And he said that the Russians said they fired warning shots at the British boat, and then the British were like, no, I didn't.
It's not true.
And then video footage of it happened and came out, and it was like, well, then it did happen.
The British position can then be, we don't think that was a threat.
Is that warning shots or is that the wind?
Yeah, exactly.
For something to be a warning, it has to have a threat contained within it.
Yeah.
Not that I want a war with Russia or anything.
I mean, Jesus.
Well, it's also just really...
Sorry, what is their navy going to do?
But what is the point?
The Russian navy.
Yeah, well, okay, but what's the point?
Let's go to the next one.
So I just wanted to say that yesterday I finally got my copy of The Starlight Lancer by Mr.
C.S. Cooper.
And I'm already on chapter four.
It is honestly a pretty good book.
I would recommend it.
I can't wait to place my order for the rest of them in the series.
Thank you.
I'm glad someone's doing well.
That's great.
You know C.S. being the guy.
Yeah, he's the guy who sells the books from Australia.
Yeah, that's fantastic.
He's better put you on the website, mate.
Where's our commission?
So the intersectionals now have a day in the month of rainbows.
Tell me, every single special day for the intersectionality ideal is going to be on June.
It's going to make it cluttered as heck when you think about it.
That really represents them completely.
I mean, it's just one big garbled mess anyway.
Not even makes a lick of sense.
Oh, well, I remember it.
No, Callum, I have not been to Svalbard.
I've just been up and down from Bergen to Kickness.
Anyway, let me tell you why communism is such a good thing.
What's going on with the sound?
I don't know.
Is it not just me?
No, it's not just you.
The sound in the last half is cut off.
Oh, yeah.
I got the same.
Alright, I didn't catch it then.
No, sorry.
Vicky says it wasn't in the original, so I don't know what's happened there.
The only thing on my mind is I want to introduce the idea into the progressives of if they're going to do Pride Month, then every day should be a letter.
Like, they can do it.
Yeah.
I think they can do the challenge.
30 or 31 days or whatever it is, of letter per letter.
To be honest with you, I'm really enjoying intersectional Ramadan because, like, it's an insufferable thing to have enforced on the entire society.
And if they think it's making them friends or making them popular, it's like, oh, pride, pride, pride.
Oh, God, I'm just tired of it.
I mean, I just...
John's like, they'll do the whole year.
Let's hope so.
Let's hope so.
Let's hope they really ram this down people's throats to the point where they're just sick of hearing about it.
I just realized how that doesn't work.
There's not 365 letters, and there's certainly not 31.
So, I don't know, they'll make up some symbols, won't they?
Yeah, exclamation marks will become a gender.
Plus, minus, slash.
Yeah, no, they can import foreign letters as well.
Maybe.
I want to see them do it.
At least do it for a week.
Let's get them at least seven, and then we'll egg them onto a fortnight, and then just keep going.
I mean, just everywhere.
Should be everywhere.
Ah, yes.
Greetings, chaps.
I was wondering why the progressives think they're the ones to fix everything, when I noticed an interesting pattern.
They claim the incorrect cause of an issue...
Tell them if you elect them, they'll fix it, and then when they don't fix it, they simply tell you that it is because you did not give them enough power.
And they rinse and repeat, gaining power like that evil bog witch Kamala Harris, who I made a video on on my YouTube channel.
Man, Spoon makes a great point.
You really should subscribe to that YouTube channel.
Absolutely.
What I love, though, is we get the meta-commentary between the commenters.
Like when the oil guy had TH Allsparks, or TF Allsparks, the puppet and stuff.
This is getting deep lore.
This is great.
I love it.
That was brilliant, though.
That was a great impression as well.
So, over the past few months, Tim Pool has been more often telling people to stand up to this leftist monster given you see it, potentially to their own detriment.
Recently, Michael Maus was on his show and made a salient counterpoint.
You can't ask somebody to take on these risks without being that individual, and you don't have the right to.
I liked him.
He does good work.
However, it seems like he's demanding collective action, and people who do not participate are not worthy of respect.
Although he does flex you on this point.
I could be misinterpreting this.
Um, what do you think?
I think we had this debate on, didn't we, about your responsibility in response to Jordan Peterson asking a similar question, which is, when is it your duty to rise up, let's say, against nonsense?
I have always given the position that I'm not going to instruct people to do these things, because you know your situation, you know your circumstances, you know what you stand to lose, and you don't often stand to gain much, to be honest.
For every person who makes a career out of being a commentator, from gaining the public attention and then gaining a career out of it...
The rise up of the parents against critical rates theory is an interesting example of this, though.
What I mean is just like on an individual basis, you're the one who has to make that decision.
It's very noble in the same way as the Mumford& Sons guy is doing.
It's very noble and we will, of course, promote and respect what you're doing.
But we're not personally going to be encouraging anything because we might be encouraging people to destroy themselves without any support.
And I don't actually want to be responsible for that.
Especially when you're someone that lives on another side of the planet.
Exactly.
And we can't provide you any help or anything like that.
Instruction.
But the interesting thing with the critical race theory and the parents, I think, is a great example of where it is pretty easy, actually, to rise up and there's not much cost to parents.
Oh, yeah, absolutely none.
That's fantastic.
That's great.
I mean, you've got them promoting segregation and then you've got parents.
I mean, it's the easiest win on the planet.
You can convince everyone else.
And what are the teachers going to do to you?
You're an adult.
Can't give you detention, so who cares?
Well, no, it's even better because the teachers have an obligation to the parents.
This is perfect.
As he says, they don't even have to be nice.
Yeah, exactly.
It's not that you're at your job and you're like, look, I have a problem with critical race theory and let me explain why.
No, I'm a parent and I have a problem with what the school is doing and I pay my taxes so you answer to me.
So the power dynamic is completely reversed.
So that's good.
And in that situation, go.
You know, go and get off your ass and go give them some hell.
But when it's you in a private company or something like that and you've got to go through this critical race training, it's up to you.
I don't know the circumstances.
Yeah, exactly.
We don't know the circumstances.
We don't know what you stand to lose.
So you make the judgment, basically.
Okay, guys.
Yeah, Callum, in response to your thing about the planes in World War II, I'm thinking I might do an Odyssey video about that at some point, because it's a long subject.
But I wanted to say, when I was at the convention the other day, and I said that I was selling Australian sci-fi, a lot of people turned around and said, oh, I hate Australia.
And I thought to myself, maybe a war really is necessary to get a lot of these people up off their arses and really appreciating the things that they have.
What do you guys think?
I think who hates Australia?
Yeah, maybe Australian leftists who have self-hatred.
Oh, oh, right, okay, yeah, I suppose so.
Like, no one outside of Australia hates Australia, there's no reason to, except the spiders, but...
No, they hate the fauna, but they don't hate the Australians.
I don't think a war's necessary for this kind of people, though.
I think travel grants, in which we just send them to foreign countries...
Deportation, you mean?
No, no, no, no, they can come back, but when they come back, they'll hopefully appreciate the difference.
So ostracism.
Yeah.
Yeah.
For a week?
A week?
No, a year.
I really want them to learn this lesson.
I want it pounded into them.
A week in Xinjiang, China, I think I'll wake them up to the fact that Australia's pretty nice.
At least, if that doesn't do it, I don't know what will.
Maybe then you would need a war.
Fair enough.
Have you seen this one?
Council worker sacked for using the N-word despite being told it was a safe space.
The man in question was actually attempting to clarify the exact meaning of racism by quoting what he had heard a black colleague say in 1985 when he, perhaps accidentally, let slip the N-word.
So it seems it's not intention that counts, but merely the audio waveform of the word in any context which is illegal.
But he won, according to the headline, he won that.
I think we've just all got our N-word passers back.
We're free at last!
They're going to fire you and then pay you to say the N-word.
Just who walks out like, am I not a man and a brother?
But yeah, there's really patheticness around profanity in my view and there's a book on this which demonstrates the...
H, S, F, N principle.
And each one of those stands for a type of profanity.
Oh, right.
And then explains the fact that it breaks down this scientifically and then shows you how stupid it is.
So H is holy, so holy profanity.
Oh, right.
So religious, so on and so forth.
So I thought it was going to be the F word and the N word.
S is the S word.
Human excretions.
So that type of profanity.
And then F is sexual activity and then N is racial profanity.
And then the point being that what's interesting is you can categorize most profanity in all world languages in these groups.
And then if you compare languages, you can find some really interesting differences.
So in modern day English, the racial profanity is the hardest one for us.
It's the most extreme version and all the rest of it.
The stuff that will get you in the massive part.
And sexual profanity and holy profanity are a nothing burger.
They're promoted, it seems.
Excretion profanity, for example.
And one of the differences is, in some places, holy profanity is much worse.
And in German, compared to English, excretion profanity is much higher.
So Scheisse, you know, things like this.
They have more weight in the language than they do to an English speaker, at least when polled.
So it really brings home how pointless profanity is to be offended by.
Which is when you break it down, it's like, yeah, this is pointless.
Not to mention, obviously, it's just a waveform.
It's the intent that matters, as the chat makes.
Let's go for the next one.
I've just finished Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky and the end scene where Raskinov shakes off the illness of nihilism by embracing his love for Sonya and for life itself speaks a lot to how we as a society destroy nihilism and that's by loving life and embracing those around us something I found very very comforting I
mean, I think that's a great point, but I'm distracted by what's in the background.
The garden centre?
Well, yeah, like, what's going on there?
But, no, no, I think it makes a great point.
I've never read, what is it, Crime and Punishment, or whatever it is.
I've never read it.
I know I should, but I just don't have the time, really.
But I agree.
I think the cure for nihilism is sincerity, and I think it's okay to be sincere.
I think, in fact, it's a good thing, and it really seems to put the wind up millennials as well.
This is what the yes meme is.
You actually think, yeah, I do, and I'm sincere about that, and what are you going to say?
And they've got nothing.
This is what I truly think, and then they're just kind of screwed.
There's a point that he's tangentially making that you've said in the past, kind of stuck with me, which is if your life is really anything, it's the relationships you make.
Yeah.
That's it.
That's all life really is, the different relationships you make throughout it.
It's just something I never thought about.
It's true.
Hi guys, so I may be serving as the idiot check today, but my North Carolina time zone will actually allow me to join the Zoom call this time, and I was wondering how one actually does that.
Sorry if this has already been asked, I've missed some episodes, but how do I join said Zoom call?
Where do I find said link?
Thank you very much.
Right, well it's on the front page of the website at the moment and I believe it's just a Zoom call link in the web page that you just click and then it opens up Zoom.
Is that correct?
Yeah, there's a big button that says join now.
Right.
So there's a big button that says join now and then it'll get a pop-up.
Right, okay, so yeah, just a big button that says join now, click that and it should do it all for you.
Fingers crossed.
That'll be at four o'clock as well, in case you're listening.
Yeah, so in what, two hours?
An hour and 45 minutes?
Something like that.
So, White Hot Peppers, hey dude!
Roving Report says, hey Carl, you might remember how excited I was when Trump banned critical race theory in the military a few months ago, but now it's back at full force.
That's because you've been subverted by communists.
You can thank the Europeans.
You had an English country, now you have a German country, or a French country.
They aren't even trying to hide it anymore, we just had an extremist training last month, and it was just nothing but examples of a bunch of white guys and one Middle Eastern guy that joined ISIS after he enlisted.
One of the examples was a guy who didn't even do anything.
He was just following a right-wing group on Facebook and the army found out and got a warrant to enter his home and when they couldn't find anything on him they found incorrectly stored chemicals in his house so they dishonorably discharged him and put him in prison.
What?
It's awful!
What kind of chemicals?
Well, I don't know.
When she says, like...
You've left this bleach next to the...
something else.
Like, there's the vinegar and the sulfuric acid.
You should have put that in a different cabinet or something.
Yeah, maybe.
Well, that's what it sounds like.
They were flaunting this like it was a victory, but I was just so shaken to the core, because I follow right-wing and left-wing groups, see what they're up to, until I'm saying that.
You better store your chemicals correctly, Jesus Christ!
Yeah.
But of course they talked about January the 6th and how every single person there was an extremist and wanted to burn the country to the ground.
Well, that's obviously not true.
I spoke up and said, but other groups were starting fires every day for almost an entire year and you guys haven't mentioned it once.
The response I got was, that wasn't a group that we can target and neutralise.
They were fighting for the right thing and if we'd fought against them it would have sent a bad message.
How terrifying.
How terrifying it is.
That's terrifying.
That they see the people on January 6th as targets to neutralise, and the groups that burn down cities for justice are seen as sacred and holy because they are fighting for the right thing.
That is genuinely terrifying.
This is Biden's America that you're looking at.
Who told you that?
Is that the people running this kind of training?
Yeah, the army officers running this training said this.
I mean, this is what I'm saying.
If Biden's like, well, you're going to need fighters, and it's like, okay, well, you're going to assume that the army will side with you if it really comes to it.
Jesus Christ, that's awful.
How many other people in the military is like, this is cancer.
This is not the America I signed up to defend.
But she continues, I'm terrified of being in the military right now.
I feel like I can't even question things without them digging into my social media.
I've almost completely stopped using Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, never used Twitter and other smaller apps.
I'm so scared because they're going to throw me in prison for listening to you guys, Tim, Crowder, Ben, Matt Christensen, Michael Malice, Alex, and the others that speak out against this BS.
I'm just going to keep my head down for a few more months until I'm out and then I'm never coming back.
I'll fight for America in a better way than...
The Army no longer stands for American values.
Hopefully we'll be able to talk to you guys later on in the Zoom call.
Love you guys.
Well, yeah, again, just be safe, obviously, and good luck.
We'll speak to you soon, hopefully.
What a situation, though.
The U.S. Army doesn't stand for American values.
That's mad.
And literally pathologizing the boomer Republicans.
As being, wanting to burn America down.
Say the subverters.
They could say they were breaking in, therefore we have a job as law enforcement or whatever.
But to say that the guys burning stuff down, throwing molotovs at police officers, IEDs and killing people in the streets, were fighting for the right thing, and therefore they're holy, and you can't...
That's awful.
That is unbelievable.
I mean, that is really horrible.
Hammurabi says, at this point, I just want Texas and Florida to run away together and start over.
Well, I mean, on the plus side, when the United States does eventually break up because of Biden's revolution, Texas and Florida will probably do just fine.
What's going to be amazing is that it'll be Texas, Florida, and I presume the other southern states, who are leaving this time for liberty, and the northern states are like, no, you must stay for segregation!
We must stay for slavery.
Again, the Democrats never change, do they?
Kenneth Hughes says, it makes sense to make the military woke, as they will be required to enforce the gun-controlled desires of left-wingers' anti-second agenda, but if Biden threatened civil war, he's playing his hand a bit early.
He's obviously a little off his rocker.
Well, look, this is the thing.
As you say, playing a bit early.
They know what's going to come.
They know what they're going to do.
They are literally trying to overthrow the foundational principles of the United States.
This is what is being promoted to you.
This is what is being shown to people like White Hot Peppers when she's in her military training.
This is what Biden is saying.
This is why they fortified the Capitol.
They know it's coming.
So, be aware.
Chris says, yes, you can own tanks in the U.S., but I believe they have to have the main gun deactivated.
I don't know about that.
It sounds like an infringement.
Yeah, it does sound like an infringement.
Shall not be infringed.
I have seen people getting hold of artillery guns that do work, so I don't know.
I think there probably is a way, but there's going to be a load of red tape around it, isn't there?
Well, of course there is.
Pete says, the first gun control law was a ban on firing your cannon in the city limits.
God damn, that's just tyrannical.
Shall not be infringed.
Yeah, I can't fire my cannon within city limits.
Also, by these nuts, says the fact that Biden lived through and was in Congress during the war in Vietnam and still thinks a group of citizens with rifles couldn't possibly stand up to a large army of tanks and jets and nukes shows that he's either comically disingenuous or his dementia has progressed beyond the point of no return.
Well, I mean, both, I think, is actually a likely answer to that.
S.H. Silver says, It's also weird that the whole nuking the Second Amendment supporters line is shared between Beijing Biden and Eric Bang Bang with a fang-fang swalwell.
I wonder what they share in common.
Well, obviously they're both owned by the Chinese Communist Party, but again, I keep hammering this point.
It's about where they think the rights come from.
They don't believe you have inalienable rights.
They think that your rights are constructed by government, which obviously makes some privileges.
They don't believe that your rights are endowed into you by your creator.
Just think about that statement for a second, though.
I mean, the strata of politicians who wrote a document saying this is the limits of government, these are the rights given to the people, you never get a strata of politicians like that these days.
Nowhere.
Nowhere are they thinking about writing any kind of act that lays out something like that.
There is never some new civil rights act which lays out these are the limits of government and also they can't infringe these rights.
Yes, that's correct.
And there are lots of reasons, but we'll talk about it another time.
Cindy says, can you imagine the response if Trump had threatened the American people with F-15 and nukes?
I can only imagine, though.
But I mean, he's like, well, when the terrorists are out burning down...
He should take this quote, send it out in his letter or whatever he does, and just be like, yeah, Joe, there'll be fire and fury!
Just take the Kim Jong-un line with it.
But that's the thing, you know, Trump wanted to stop the terrorists from burning down American cities, and Joe Biden wants to stop the American public from rising up against the government.
If Joe Biden nukes our glorious people, then there will be fire and fury at the Capitol!
Biden ASMR is weird?
Yeah, it is really weird.
Don't know why he thinks this is a good idea.
Henry says, Joe Biden sounds like the Indian Facebook memes.
I have to expect him to message women asking to see bobs and vagina.
Considering Trump had the media asking him for him to be removed due to insanity of holding a glass of water two-handed, it's borderline laughable that they replaced him with Biden.
It's mad, isn't it?
Long Talks on the Neat says, Arnold Schwarzenegger, former governor of California, owns an M47 pattern tank.
Pre-COVID, it was giving rides to schoolchildren back and forth to school.
That's awesome.
What a great life.
Imagine being a kid.
Arnold Schwarzenegger's going to ride you to school on his tank.
I'd love that.
What a great guy as well.
Yeah, exactly.
I bet it's great fun for him as well.
Oh yeah, I doubt that.
I bet it's awesome.
If the former governor of the most progressive state owns and is trained to operate a piece of military machinery and he uses it to give rice children, there is no argument about why private citizens shouldn't be allowed to own and operate military-grade weapons under the Second Amendment.
Well, I mean, they obviously do.
And it's obvious that that was the point, because the point was to be able to overthrow the government if it became tyrannical.
Just saying.
I mean, you know.
Angel Brain says, oh, this is absolutely hilarious to me.
As I said on Ruben's channel, Biden tries to say in one breath that the Second Amendment should be limited.
Then the next breath says that under the Second Amendment, nukes and fighter jets exist and should only be used by the government, which is a direct violation of the Second Amendment by definition.
Yes.
Riddle me this, Joe.
Are you only worried about fast vector and high impact weapons because you might not hold the trigger?
That's exactly why he's concerned.
Because at the end of the day, if you guys can actually use force to assert your right to live independently of Joe Biden's regime, then you prove him wrong.
If he says rights are constructed by government and you can show that, no, we're not the government and we're going to enforce our rights, then he's wrong and you're right.
And it will have to come down to a war, which is why he's talking about civil wars.
And he knows it, even though he's a doddering old senile man.
Edward says, I have to pity whoever deals with Joe's PR. I have no idea how they cope.
Well, these are what I would call the conspirators, so I'm not really very sympathetic.
With a strong dose of copium, that's how.
Yeah, yeah.
First salute the Marines, now this.
Please, Joe, when addressing the public, don't whisper into the mic like you're a stalker on the telephone.
He doesn't know what else to do, though, does he?
Let's be honest.
Omar says, It's really uplifting to seal this pushback starting to coalesce into the mainstream consciousness.
Anti-critical race theory, GB News, Second Amendment, guns and ammo stocks plummeting.
It feels like it's been so long since we've gone from, lol, gamers rise up in 2014 to Lotus Eaters,.win forums, and calling up progressive BS on national TV. Yeah, I mean, on the plus side, at least it does feel like the right is like, oh my god, the left has gone mad and they're not interested in democracy.
That's right.
They're not interested in democracy.
They've never been interested in democracy, to be honest with you.
They've always been the font of revolution.
And so it's nice that the right one can actually be like, oh right, okay, we actually have a problem here.
Yes, you do.
And what's worse is you're losing.
You've been losing for a long time.
I really feel like they opened that bottle a little too early and now the genie won't go back in.
The mask keeps slipping more and more and more and they find themselves in their pathetic ideologies under increasing scrutiny.
One day the conservatives might even do something about it other than point it out.
Yeah, I know.
Like, literally, conservatives.
I actually don't want to be the person who writes the epitaph or what if...
Imagine if we'd been doing this.
Imagine if this was done by the left.
An appeal to hypocrisy is just not persuasive to left-wingers.
They don't care.
They don't care at all.
Hypocrisy is for those who are morally consistent, which implies that you hold to a moral standard.
And if there's one thing that we've learned about the left is they don't.
I mean, what moral standard is there that the left has not tried to abolish?
Just name it.
They're like, hey, we want to castrate kids.
Okay?
What am I expecting from this person?
But he's not going to be a hypocrite.
All the leftist intellectuals in France, hi, we want to abolish the age of consent.
Okay, but at least they're not hypocrites.
I don't care about that.
They're disgusting in every way, shape, or form.
Anyway, the proletariat says, the left invariably uses every institution they capture as a weapon against their opponents.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
This is why they say right wing as if it's a scary boogeyman.
Because in a normal, liberal, plural society, you expect a certain amount of right-wing, a certain amount of left-wing, you expect them to coalesce in the centre and figure things out.
But instead of, oh, right-wing, right-wing, as in, this is forbidden, it's the enemy, it must be kept away from us at all times.
It's an impurity.
That's the way they look at it.
But yeah, now they've captured the top military brass, it does not bode well.
Yeah, I mean, what was that philosopher you sent me the other day where he was describing it as a civic religion?
I can't remember his name, but I think he's right in describing it as a civic religion because it has a brand new metaphysic.
It doesn't look at the way in the same way that a traditional American or Westerner looks at the world, and therefore, essentially, it looks like it's divinely ordained to them.
And, you know, what are we going to do?
It becomes a jihad from their perspective now, the progressive jihad, which is why they have their own Ramadan.
But for the record, all officers looking for promotion above one star general and admiral require approval by Congress.
They're political animals first and foremost.
Yes, of course.
Chad says...
You chaps in Mother England will be pleased to know that your Antipodean colony of convict rejects is doing better at resisting critical race theory than the rest of the Anglosphere.
Our National Senate just voted in favour of a motion to keep out critical race theory from the national curriculum.
Not a decisive victory yet, but a good sign nonetheless.
Yeah, what you need to do now is get them to go through the universities and start defunding academics who are promoting critical race theory.
It's good that you've stopped them at Helm's Deep or whatever, but now you need to invade Mordor.
The nominists have to fall back.
The dominoes have to hold back.
Exactly.
Yeah, exactly.
You've stopped the progress, but you haven't taken the capital.
So go over there and burn it down, metaphorically speaking.
Go and get the academics who are promoting this fired.
Everyone who promotes this should be fired.
I can't remember the American senator, but people will remember this, in which she had a vote in the Senate on, is it okay to be white?
And the Senate voted no.
She was just like, okay, I'll see you later.
LAUGHTER Rose says, I work at a bookstore.
Yesterday I found the Communist Manifesto on a table where it didn't belong, so I brought it back to the correct section, which isn't alphabetized, so I stuck it right next to White Fragility.
Appropriate?
I mean, yes.
Small L Libertarian says, I always wondered how the revolt of the veterans was going to happen when most vets are quite old.
Now I know that heaps of the young ones will retire soon and get pissed at the woke stuff in civilian life.
Well, I'm just saying Heinlein is a prophet, so, you know, the world has been brought to the brink of chaos through the social scientists, and eventually the veterans are going to rise up.
Justin says, these civil rights protesters are actually terrorists, and Trump's suggestions that the only way to deal with terrorists, to give them anything they ask for, is to encourage more terrorism.
Couldn't stand by that more, clearly.
That's a brilliant statement.
Elvis says, same with the London riots.
We didn't deploy the military despite civil unrest, civil requests, sorry.
It's a civil matter for police and civilians to deal with.
If you routinely use the military to prosecute civilian crime, then you're on a pathway to military rule.
No, the London riots were nowhere near as bad as what's been happening in the US. Yeah, nothing nearly as bad.
But I mean, literally when you have thousands of people storming through the streets, burning things down and killing people, I think that's justified to bring in the military then.
Not like a one-off, not a week or two or whatever London riots were.
All across the country in leftist hives for hundreds of days at a time, molotovs being thrown on daily basis.
Literally over 100 days in Portland, yeah.
I think it was about 200 at the end of it.
Probably, yeah.
And, uh, over a period of four years, and it's getting to its crescendo now, we're having IEDs thrown at government buildings.
Yeah, no, that's fine.
I mean, come on, we deployed the military after, uh, what was it?
I can't remember, one of the bombings we had from Islamist terrorists, just one bombing.
And we deployed the military in London and whatnot.
In the same way we do in response to Islamists, you should do in response to socialist terrorists.
Yeah.
Uh...
Matthew says, speaking on Pride Year, you should check out Canada.
It has Pride season, June, September.
That's not enough.
That's not enough.
We need to go further.
We need to have Pride at all times and every day.
In fact, why don't you just change the Canadian flag to have a Pride leaf?
Permanent change.
That's a good idea.
Why not?
Unless you get rid of the leaf.
What are you, a homophobe?
No, no, a leaf with the pride colours.
And presumably the invading triangle.
Sure, but also just the Canadian flag.
I mean, it's a leaf.
What are you doing?
The rainbow coloured rake.
Matthew Hammond says, Yes, obviously.
Major Tom, on Andy giving up a commie hit list to the neo-Nazi group, they are probably talking about when he posts the public records of Antifa criminals, which any neo-Nazi group could just find themselves if they wanted to use that data as a hit list.
Yeah, it's public information released by the police department.
Yeah, I mean, he just posts it on his Twitter account, so that's hardly providing a list to Atomwaffen.
That's a very roundabout way.
I suppose he's also providing a list of Vladimir Putin, if that counts.
He's providing a list to Xi Jinping, because it's public information.
Yeah, it's not providing a list to anyone.
Chris says, all this nonsense is making me glad I abandoned social media years ago.
Prefer to just speak to people directly.
Yep.
Dylan says, two plus two equals five, Winston.
And Andy Ngo is a fascist, Winston.
Yeah, exactly.
So, Tia Fallspark says, please show this, Vicky.
First was, McAfee didn't kill himself.
Second was, French subversion.
Oh, no!
I assume that's an inside joke that I don't get.
Oh, right, right, right, right.
Biozombie says, When he got it from his father,
there was no dishonour there, so make sure you guard it wisely after all is said and done.
You'll be glad the name is spotless when you give it to your son.
And on that bombshell, it's probably time to end the show.
That's lovely.
On 4 o'clock, Gold Tears, come and join us.
We have the Zoom call.
Otherwise, go and sign up to loadsears.com, everyone.
We have loads of premium content on there.
And if you want to become a Gold Tear and join the Zoom call...
Go to the Book Club.
It's really good.
I'm really proud of it.
I did a lot of work.
Oh, my God.
Zeve Sternhoel, he's a really good historian, but he's really not very exciting to read.
I think it's short for Otaku who messaged me the other day.
He's been like, I'm so glad I made him do it.
Yeah, and by the way, credit to Dev, because he did bully me into reading it, and it was a very important thing to have read, so now I actually understand the sort of ideological genealogy of fascism, which is really why the left can get away with calling it a right-wing movement, because it's definitely not.
But honestly, well worth your time, and I think I did a fairly good job of presenting the information.
