	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Seeders for the 4th of October 2021.
	I'm joined by Carl.
	Hi.
	My trans-comrade.
	We were just talking about the Labour Party conference Callum's still going through.
	It's insane.
	Oh god, the next day is worse than the one we're going through today.
	Anyway, some of the things to mention, so the things we're going through today.
	First thing, Labour Party stand with the Communist Party of China.
	I'm not kidding.
	We are going to go through that.
	Also, the insanity surrounding the Sarah Everard murder and the court case.
	Yep.
	The weird hysteria we have in this world around that.
	Oh, it's mental.
	Absolutely mental.
	Off the rails.
	Also, white people.
	Genetically defective mutants.
	Say Black Lives Matter.
	And, uh, yeah.
	Take a knee.
	Take a knee, Keir.
	Amazingly, both parties have endorsed the website putting that out.
	There's speeches on there from the Conservatives and the Labour Party.
	Oh, God.
	Oh, boy.
	What a world.
	So let's get into some of the stuff on the website.
	First, some of the stuff that went up over the weekend, I believe.
	So first thing, Josh's article, protesting does not achieve anything.
	I can't remember if this one has audio or not.
	It does.
	There we go.
	So that's audio for silver and gold tiers.
	So you listen to that instead of reading it if you don't have the time for reading.
	Which I also massively agree with.
	I remember Gerard Batten used to talk about this a lot.
	- Oh yeah. - What was it, the Iraq war protest being the biggest in British history?
	- No one cared. - No one cared. - In fact, one of the things, so there is a caveat to this.
	Protesting does achieve something if the establishment already agrees with the protests' goals.
	So if the establishment wants to do what the protests are protesting for, then that happens.
	But protesting against the establishment's current paradigm, no, it does nothing.
	Anyway, moving on.
	So let's go to the next thing.
	So this is contemplation, so the tragedy of schooling.
	This is, I believe, Hugo and Josh?
	Yeah, the problem of state schools.
	As you can imagine, Hugo had some thoughts on this as he was an anarchist.
	And then the alternatives surrounding that.
	So if we go to the next one, we also have the Epochs, which I believe you and Beau did.
	Oh yeah.
	So we've begun a kind of Hundred Years' War series, just because we've wanted to talk about this for a while, and get out of the ancient world for a while, and so we get into France getting absolutely caned by the English during the Hundred Years' War.
	This is a really interesting episode, actually, because this one we had to kind of front-load it with An explanation of, OK, what was the world like in the medieval era?
	And it's completely different to now.
	And, of course, we go through what it was like to have to be on the receiving end of the English longbowmen and whether they could pierce armour and all that sort of argument.
	We go through, and, of course, what happened during the battle.
	And then we're going to go on to Poitiers and Agincourt and probably a couple of French victories.
	So there were the odd one or two French victories during the United Nations War.
	But I'm sure they're much more prominent in France in French history.
	I like how you're phrasing it like the English.
	You're like, well, I've got to give him one, don't we?
	Well, it's kind of how it comes across.
	But quit the war otherwise.
	We'll get to the sack of swass on at some point as well.
	But anyway, it's a really good episode.
	Really enjoyed it.
	You'll enjoy it, I'm sure.
	Anyway, without further ado, let's get into Labour.
	Will someone please think of the poor, poor CCP? Because Labour are thinking of the poor, poor CCP. Sorry, are you saying the Labour Party is siding with China?
	Unironically, yes.
	And we're going to go through it.
	So this is, of course, around the Labour conference, which I've been talking about an awful lot, and for good reason, because I think no one else goes into the depth that is needed to show what the lunatics they are.
	Which is because it takes forever.
	So the first thing we're going to do here is compare it to the Tory conference, which is now going on, because I don't want to be partisan on this.
	You have the Tories here, and Diamond Grimes making the point that the Labour Party is currently marching outside the Tory conference.
	Yeah, but protesting doesn't achieve anything, so, you know.
	But also the absurdity of being like, yes, we of Party B protest the existence of Party A. The reverse never takes place.
	Oh, I always hate this as well.
	You see, like, when some, you know, the Conservatives have done this, we'll go to Labour, it's like, I actually don't need the Labour Party's opinion on this, because it's always going to be Tory's bad.
	And there was no massive protest outside the Labour Party saying you shouldn't exist, whereas the reverse is.
	But just my party political opponent has decided that I'm in the wrong.
	Oh my goodness, this is such a good faith criticism that I'm going to take to heart.
	Of course they're going to say that.
	They're going to say, wow, he didn't do anything wrong, did he?
	I am shook off.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Pointless.
	Anyway, so we go on to the next one here.
	So this is apparently, as the spectator point, an anti-Tory threat conference.
	LAUGHTER That's so good.
	For anyone who's watching, there's a banner, remember, we only have to be lucky once, which is a massive threat from the Labour Party.
	We just need one term in office and we can ruin this country.
	I love why they're literally calling themselves insane there.
	You have to be lucky all the time.
	That's such an admission.
	I love it.
	We can't get away from them either.
	We've been trying to look at the Tories for a minute.
	Just British public remember this.
	This is how they think of themselves.
	Yeah.
	So not much has happened at Tory conference that I think is worth going over because Tories are just, when they do their conference, they're just boring.
	Well, they all speak from exactly the same script because the Conservative Party is a well-oiled machine to keeping people in line.
	Ministers and things.
	But if anyone has anything interesting and you think I've looked over something, please just send it in.
	But we're going to go to some of the stuff and then we'll get into the Labour sipping for the CCP. So if we go to the next one here, we have a guy who is apparently some Conservative mayor, if we can scroll up on this one.
	He decided he wouldn't attend a panel because it was all men.
	I agree.
	I don't think anyone should attend these panels.
	So it was a Conservative conference where he was going to give a speech and he was like, there's only men here.
	Oh, what, this is a Conservative?
	This is a Conservative.
	Oh, God.
	Yeah, I mean, the Labour Party and Comrade Bercow are waiting for you, my friend.
	God.
	Remember, Jonathan, the barbarians at the gates only have to be lucky once.
	This is a recorder.
	The mayor's name is, if you can scroll up, it's up there.
	But it's not too important.
	It's just so cringe.
	Really?
	Okay.
	Conservative, ma'am.
	Anyway, so we move on.
	If we get to the next one, this is making the point again.
	Darren Grimes had some speech here from some guy, whose name I forget, who was just clapping and being like, yes, the Chancellor, a very good chap, indeed.
	And that's what I mean by boring speeches that are worthless to look at.
	I hate this Build Back Better slogan.
	It's like, you've got Joe Biden's slogan in the background.
	Why?
	Why?
	Because you're the party of Davos, that's why.
	Even taking away all of that stuff is the worst slogan I can think of.
	No, but you can't take it away.
	Who cares?
	I know, but even in abstract, if they're like, oh, I don't buy into any of that, it's still terrible.
	Yeah, but I don't believe you, is the point.
	I think you're a controlled opposition, basically.
	Anyway, so we're getting back to the low party and simping for the CCP, because I thought we'd enjoy this.
	So we go to the next one here.
	We've done day three.
	I did a compilation of day three there.
	That's the full one you can go check out on the second channel.
	But without further ado, we're going to start off with a little bit of a skip forward to day four, because that was a really funny clip I had to put out.
	So we go to the next one, and let's play this clip of a guy talking about the incel movement that is the Taliban.
	In the last few weeks, we have seen the return of the Taliban to power in Afghanistan, freeing terrorists from prison.
	And another terrible example of the growing threat from online extremism in the form of the incel movement.
	Yet the government didn't even have a security minister in place for over a month.
	That's not in bad faith either.
	You can go to the timestamp, it makes even less sense with more of the speech around it, because it's about Afghanistan.
	So, I mean, unless he's just calling the Taliban incels to insult them, but okay.
	I mean, I don't think they're going to care with all of their forced wives.
	Yeah.
	I mean, technically, it could be incels, though.
	They do have that policy of handing out wives, which is an incel policy, let's say.
	I guess so.
	A meme policy.
	But what's interesting is, I assume he's trying to reference the Plymouth shooter.
	So, if we go to this one, you can have the archive here from the Times.
	And it turns out that the guys investigating this, just out of interest, are not treating it as terrorism.
	So, there's a quote here.
	So, Jakus, an assistant chief constable speaking at the International Security Expo in West London, said that counter-terrorism...
	Jakus.
	Don't worry, it's a French word.
	Explored Davidson's motivation and found that it was not driven by incel ideology.
	He would not comment on the specific motivation, but it is understood that officers are focusing on Davidson's relationship with his mother, Maxine.
	And he goes on to argue that incelism isn't really an ideology.
	Incel in and of itself is not a terrorist ideology.
	You become a terrorist when you cross a threshold in terms of your actions, and it's about what you do or intend to do to further that cause.
	The attack in Plymouth wasn't driven by an ideology, albeit that that individual was engaged in some kind of incel thinking, but that doesn't make him a terrorist.
	What's the political motivation?
	That's remarkably nuanced.
	Yeah, well, you know, this is a guy who works with terrorism 24-7.
	There was also an interesting bit in here, some guy, Jonathan Hall QC, an independent reviewer of counter-terrorism legislation, said in July that a staggeringly high number of autistic people were being referred to prevent the government's counter-to-extremism program.
	They're all on 4chan.
	Yeah, whatever.
	Anyways, just some context that I found of interest.
	But we'll move on.
	So we'll go back to day three, as I mentioned, and let's play the next clip, which is of Lisa Nandy being a flag shagger, as the left would say.
	We're proud to fly the pride flag over our embassies in countries where loving who you love is a crime.
	We will build an agenda for Britain that matches the ambition of the people in it.
	Big and generous, not small and petty.
	Measured not in the number of our flags, but in the health of our kids.
	I just, I found that amazing.
	It's like, yes, we're going to fly the pride flag over all the embassies because, you know, tolerance and all that.
	But at the same time, we don't measure our success in flags.
	I'm like, right, okay.
	But even then, I hate the slogan, you know, where loving who you love is a crime.
	It's like, well, pedophiles can use that as a defense of their particular predilections against this country.
	But even taking up...
	Yeah, but in and of itself, I hate that phrase.
	Love is love.
	It's like, okay, but a pedo would say that.
	That's true.
	And Britain would be a horrific, oppressive state for preventing you from loving who you love.
	If you run it through leftist logic.
	So is it the map pride flag that she's flying?
	Because it sounds like it.
	But if we take her a steel man position, she's just talking about the conservative pride flag, which she's probably not, but okay.
	So we'll take it at that.
	Even then, I just love the idea that flying the British flag is some kind of crime or is not representative of Britain, but flying the Pride flag is, which I just found absurdist.
	She wants to be in charge of all foreign affairs, as you can tell, so you can look forward to that.
	But we also got an admission of guilt from the Labour Party, which is that Labour councils take eight times the refugees that the Conservatives do.
	Let's play.
	The Guardian report, published on the 3rd of September, highlights that Labour in local government have supported eight times the level of refugees than Conservative councils.
	Wonderful.
	Then we know who is guilty for the illegitimate refugees going AWOL. Well, I posted something on Gab the other day about this, because Lisa Nandy had posted with her refugees welcome sign, oh, I'm so progressive, and then a few months later she was complaining that the refugees were harassing girls from the hotels.
	Yeah, a local school in her constituency.
	Yeah.
	And it's like, well, there we go.
	You know, this is what you get when you vote Labour.
	I mean, the memes write themselves.
	They do.
	Anyway, but getting back to China, so the main thrust of this and the main interest for this day was we're going to debate AUKUS. So I don't really have an opinion on AUKUS, but we're going to talk about it.
	Anything to start countering the influence of China is a good thing.
	How about that?
	So we get this BBC article up.
	You can see AUKUS, UK, US and Australia launch a pact to counter China.
	Can't help but notice that Canada and New Zealand, absent from this, really makes me think...
	Very disappointing, the club, guys.
	So, it will let Australia build nuclear-powered submarines for the first time using technology provided by the United States.
	The AUKUS Pact, which will also cover AI and other technologies, is one of the country's biggest defence partnerships in decades, analysts say.
	China has condemned the agreement as, quote, extremely irresponsible.
	I bet that's exactly the words that Labourly used as well, isn't it?
	It was.
	Yeah.
	Foreign Minister Spokesman Zhao Liyan said it seriously undermines regional peace and stability and intensifies the arms race.
	Well, if you're already engaged in the arms race, you don't want your opponents engaging in the arms race as well.
	China's embassy in Washington accused the countries of a Cold War mentality and ideological prejudice.
	Sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of a genocide you're currently engaging in.
	What?
	So, but also just, Chad, yes, you have ideological prejudice against communism.
	Yep.
	Yep, you got me.
	You got us right on the money there.
	Get lost, commie.
	But anyway, you have the quotes there, so the fact that it's extremely irresponsible, it's doing an arms race, all the rest of it.
	Those are the direct quotes from the Chinese propaganda machine, and you can keep that in mind for later.
	But anyway, they also end this with, The pact also created a row with France, Chad, which has now lost a deal with Australia to build 12 diesel submarines.
	Tell you what, France, maybe I would have been more sympathetic if you'd done something to stop the migrant crisis of them sailing across the English Channel when you know they're not allowed.
	We do not give a toss about the French feelings.
	It's really a stab in the back, say the people currently stabbing us in the back.
	Oh, I'm really sorry.
	I'm so sorry to hear that.
	But I don't have a huge opinion on the geopolitics of all this because I just don't know enough.
	But one of the things I found interesting is the level of debate in Britain is mostly just down to it pissed off the French, based.
	So if we go to the next one, we have Nigel Farage making this point.
	No further comment required.
	Baguette.
	Submarine.
	Not good enough.
	Get some nuclear submarines, you scrubs.
	Anyway, so we'll get back to the Labour conference.
	So I mentioned there the Chinese line, the official Chinese line, that this is extremely irresponsible and is starting an arms race.
	What was the Labour Party's view on this?
	So let's play the first one in which they decide that Australia is a rogue state.
	On the 15th of September, a tripartite military agreement was signed between the US, the UK and Australia, referred to as AUKUS. The AUKUS agreement will see the US and the UK supplying eight nuclear-powered military submarines to the Australian Navy, enabling it to operate undetected underwater for longer.
	The agreement includes artificial intelligence, cyber warfare, and both underwater and long-range strike capabilities.
	It will give Australia weapons-grade uranium, the building blocks for a nuclear bomb.
	Of course, Australia has said it has no intention of building a bomb, but in the future, how can we possibly know?
	Boris Johnson says the ALCAS deal will promote stability in the Indo-Pacific region, but, conference, it's very much in danger of doing quite the opposite.
	China has condemned the agreement as extremely irresponsible.
	Does that sound like something that's going to promote stability?
	God, not that China have said it.
	Well, now I believe it.
	Well, I mean, the CCP said it.
	Take it as word of God for the Labour Party.
	I can't believe she actually said that.
	She's like, well, China have called it irresponsible, so we shouldn't do it.
	But I mean, I love the way she's treating Australia like it's Iran.
	I know.
	I mean, don't get me wrong, maybe we should.
	That's a different discussion.
	I'm deeply touched by her concern for the Australian people being tyrannised by the COVID police.
	But I don't think they're going to nuke them.
	No, but the thing is, I'm not going to assume too much.
	So it just strikes me that if Australia had nuclear capacity, then China would be less inclined to invade it.
	Also, we're talking about the sea.
	My understanding is the nuclear submarines are nuclear powered.
	They don't have nukes on them.
	Sure, but if Australia were to develop a nuclear bomb...
	It would be extremely expensive and very difficult anyway.
	But it would still disincline China to invade, and China must be looking and going, well, it's not very far.
	I also love the idea that...
	I wouldn't want to be stuck next to China.
	I can't remember if it gets mentioned in these clips, but there was someone who was like, I can't believe we're sending uranium to Australia.
	It's like shipping coal to Newcastle.
	Yeah, they're the primary producers worldwide of uranium.
	Anyway, but yeah, Australia, rogue states, can't be trusted.
	Why?
	China said so, which is an interesting argument.
	But not as interesting as the next one, which is a speaker who decided that the whole thing, the entire alliance in and of itself, is a vermin Tory deal.
	Let's go for this one.
	Workers in Australia are asking for our solidarity and we've just heard from Lisa about the importance and the power of showing solidarity.
	Seafarers in the MUA section of the CFM-MEU, the Australian Union, have called for international opposition to the reckless AUKUS announcement.
	Seafarers have already been stranded on coal ships.
	Their trades have been shut down as China reacts aggressively to this dangerous announcement and France very unhappily.
	AUKUS breaks international law.
	It increases global tension.
	It risks starting a nuclear arms race, and we should be very clear about that.
	And we know, as a Labour movement, that real security only comes from cooperation.
	It doesn't come from this dreadful deal that the vermin Tories have put on us, this AUKUS. Labour must lead by building opposition.
	We must lead on this.
	So please support this emergency resolution.
	Workers have no interest in war with China or any country.
	We must stand in solidarity with workers in all countries.
	We must oppose war and wasteful, environmentally harmful military spending.
	Who talks like that?
	Workers of the world unite literally.
	A middle class woman talks like that.
	Yeah, the workers of China, we stand with them.
	Solidarity.
	Like, oh, well, we don't want war.
	Well, no, neither do we, but then the Chinese government don't really seem to be concerned about the value of human life, so don't know what to tell you.
	What happened to your anti-imperialism, comrade?
	Yeah.
	Vanished up.
	Anyway, so that's the side of the debate which gave the argument that the vermin Tories have set up this deal, and very polite...
	Not vermin Chinese Communist Party, vermin conservatives.
	Yes, I love how the Conservatives were shot.
	They called us scum.
	Yeah, no S. We've got to listen to them for five minutes.
	They think of you as rats.
	Anyway, so that's that side of the debate.
	And of course, this is a debate to be had, and then they vote on what to do.
	And the other side of the debate got a mention, and it was this chap who came up and gave the argument for AUKUS, because the Chinese are a bunch of genocidal maniacs.
	That's a good argument, I would say.
	He did not get the clap he deserved.
	Let's play the next clip.
	Our allies standing with us is a way that we can fight back against China and we can push back against their policies across the region, across the world and not least of all in exterminating the Uyghur people.
	Thank you very much, Delegate, and now I'm afraid that...
	Very tepid.
	All of ten people in there?
	Yeah.
	Who were just like, yeah, maybe genocide is bad.
	You're in the wrong party, mate.
	You sort of said trans rights, mate.
	You would have got a much, much, much bigger clap.
	I also love the idea that he's up there and he's like, oh, you claim to be labouring, yet you are concerned with genocide.
	Curious.
	do not give a toss about that issue they are standing with the workers of china after all the workers of china who are currently moving into xinjiang let's say anyway so the also the the last thing well one of the next things to mention there are plenty of things to mention is the anti-white racism which i've mentioned previously of uh white people need not talk at this if we can help it because um it doesn't reflect the diversity of our party i mean given the standard of the white people in the room i'm starting to agree None of them should talk.
	I mentioned it before we started, but there's like the occasional guy who's in his 60s who's complaining about the pensions that he's being screwed over because he worked down the mines back in the day.
	And these people who look like relics...
	But did you transition?
	Yeah, that's literally how they're treated.
	Yes, but you are white.
	I worked in the mines for 40 years.
	Yeah, you're still privileged.
	You're straight as well.
	Anyway, so let's move on to the next one, which is the anti-white racism did continue.
	And let's demonstrate that.
	Three more speakers from this side of the hall.
	And please, could I highlight, I want the speakers to reflect the diversity of our great party.
	So, any individuals from black, Asian, minority ethnic communities.
	I will now take some speakers from the floor.
	So if you'd like to put your hand up, again, take into consideration the diversity of our great party, and I'm going to start from this side.
	And I have been really, really careful in trying to get the diversity of our delegates and different age groups and everything else.
	Cultist.
	Yeah.
	I mean, honestly.
	Just the great party as well.
	Just say we want the Browns.
	Yes.
	We want the Browns.
	No whites.
	She did say at one point, you know, Bames, because that's also very human.
	Not using Yuka Montgomery.
	Very disappointing.
	Not very progressive.
	Not very.
	Yeah, so then that moved on, and then they had a debate about proportional representation and the fact that this will allow the far right to get into power.
	But they're not concerned about that, because don't you worry, we already have a far right government.
	Let's play.
	Comrades, proportional representation can help solve this problem.
	It will give us fairer, more representative electoral results.
	It is the pinnacle of liberal democracy to have all opinions heard, which PR will guarantee.
	Some may argue that it will lead to the rise of the far right.
	But comrades, who is in charge now?
	The most right-wing government in decades, that's what!
	I look to our comrades in Europe.
	Comrades!
	Many people argue that the PR would bring in smaller parties and extreme right-wing parties like Farage's type.
	They would only be replacing extreme right-wing Tories already in government.
	How is that an argument in favour of proportional representation, though?
	Because if you're like, yeah, so the Tories...
	Are the furthest right party in decades, which they're not.
	But it's like, yeah, so it's okay if we have even further right than that.
	So when they've got a slew of BNP MPs, they're going to be like, yeah, well, it's basically the same, isn't it?
	They're just like, yeah, that's the same thing.
	But I mean, I added in the comrades there to make the point that when you're that far left, everything looks far right to you, doesn't it?
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	You know, having these people give their opinion on what's a far right are...
	I don't particularly want BMP MPs.
	Like, these people seem to not care about that at all.
	Basically, Kemi Badenoch.
	That's what's going on there.
	Actually, no, even worse.
	I mean, it's basically, I don't know.
	I got denounced by Nick Griffin for being a Civnat.
	Yeah.
	And I got denounced by Jeremy Corbyn for being not crazy.
	Yeah.
	Been denounced by Boris yet?
	Not yet.
	Well, that's...
	He's our guy, no?
	Basically the same thing, according to these extremists, and that's an active description.
	Anyway, there's also some lady who then went on to talk about equality, and there's that thing in my mind.
	We were in the ride on the way back from the live event, and it came up with the phrase, the crevices of intersectionality.
	Yeah.
	This woman gave her speeches like, I am the first black woman on the council in Norwich City on the cabinet.
	And it's like, how many more little digs do we have to get to?
	Yeah.
	There's a better one tomorrow, so I'll save it.
	But anyway, this woman is talking about equality, and we want equality by any means necessary.
	Let's go.
	And we must build equality into the system.
	And I don't care how we do it.
	I don't care if we have quotas or targets or shortlists.
	But we have to make sure that those devolved authorities are representative of our communities.
	So fascism.
	We will do anything possible to get diversity.
	Good to keep in mind.
	Anyway, last thing here.
	And this is why China did nothing wrong.
	Yeah, last thing in here, which is really funny, and this is a point of just, like, the clocks don't tick in that place, and it's this guy who's just like, yeah, the SMP, they're very progressive, but it's not real progressivism.
	Oh, really?
	Because they screwed up Scotland, unlike us, who would be proper progressives.
	Let's play this clip.
	Growing up in London, I would see people speaking about the SNP, especially in 2014.
	People would say, oh, look at the SNP, look how progressive they are, look how left-wing they are, let's be like the SNP. But I don't want to be part of a legacy of a party that has so increased the amount of drugs deaths in Scotland, longest cancer waiting times in the UK, widening educational attainment gap.
	That's not part of a country that I want to be in.
	And I really think...
	I love it.
	Not real progressivism.
	But I mean, like, I agree with him.
	I wouldn't want the consequences of SNP rule either.
	No.
	But how are they going to differ from Labour rule?
	I love it, though.
	He lays it out.
	He's like, yeah, the S&P are very progressive.
	And they're terrible.
	So we're going to be labour and progressive.
	That won't be terrible.
	Dot, dot, dot.
	Just, you know, question mark profit.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	That's exactly what I was thinking.
	Level of thinking.
	Anyway, so there's the full version of Day 3.
	Abridged, if you'd like to go and enjoy that.
	I'm currently doing Day 4, and it's even worse.
	I'm loving this coverage.
	I've got 20 minutes of just clips of day four of them talking about their trans comrades.
	Love it.
	I can't wait to watch it.
	Off myself.
	Anyway, please enjoy.
	So let's talk about the insanity surrounding the murder of Sarah Everard because it's gone way off the rails and they've completed what I would suggest is the investigation, they've convicted the murderer, and now they don't know what to do with themselves.
	So let's just go through this calmly, soberly, and see what conclusions we can reach.
	So back in March 2021, a body was found in a woodland in Kent and this turned out to be Sarah Everard, a 33-year-old marketing manager from Brixton in South London.
	She'd been missing for over a week after walking home from a friend's flat in South London on Wednesday, March 3rd.
	That evening, around 9pm, she'd left the flat in Clapham to walk a 50-minute route to her home in Brixton, but she never made it.
	Police were frantically searching for her, and then the grim discovery of human remains was found.
	This was confirmed to be her, and a Met police officer was arrested, called Wayne Cousins.
	He was arrested on the suspicion of kidnapping her on March 9th, and...
	excuse me...
	And a woman in her 30s was also arrested, which was cousin's wife.
	So after this, for some reason, hundreds of people protested as if this was called a vigil, but the BBC also referred to this as a protest.
	For some reason, because we're all against murder, I think.
	I too am against murder.
	Yes.
	I mean, I didn't go to the vigil.
	I just held one at home, I guess.
	But the Met faced widespread criticism for the handling of the Clapham vigil because a bunch of radical feminists got arrested for being insufferable.
	And Dame Christina Dick demanded to step down, but of course she didn't.
	I believe it was the police saying, you can't do this because of COVID rules, and then arrested the women.
	And everyone was like, you can't arrest women?
	I was like, well, the rules are the rules.
	You are breaking the COVID rules, so yes we can.
	But anyway, so if we go on to the next article, BBC have given us an explanation of...
	Excuse me, sir.
	Obviously, COVID or something.
	BBC have given us a great article explaining just how dangerous Britain is for women.
	And the answer is, not very, as things go.
	To the year of March 2020, 207 women were killed in the entire of Great Britain.
	So we've got, I don't know, something like 70 million people here, and in a single year, 200 women were killed.
	Which means, as the BBC say, about one in four killings were of women.
	Don't know who the rest were.
	Presumably non-binary otherkin or something?
	No, obviously, you can see there it's four times higher for men.
	And so, okay, never mind, moving on.
	You know, the number of female victims was actually lower than in the previous year, and in the past decades there were 4,493 male victims of killings and 2,000 female victims of killings.
	But, as they say, more than 9 out of 10 killers were men.
	Aha, right.
	We've found the bad guys.
	Men.
	So, at the time, back in March, they were like, oh, we're going to have new safety measures, because we don't know what we're going to do about this, really.
	So, immediate steps were aimed at improving safety for women and girls in England and Wales after Sarah Everard's death.
	Again, there's not like an epidemic of women being killed in the country or something.
	It's a very rare occurrence, thankfully.
	But among them is an additional £25 million for better lighting and CCTV, as well as a pilot scheme which would see plainclothes officers in pubs and clubs.
	Hmm.
	Right, so she was killed by a police officer, and the solution is to put police officers in the clubs.
	Yes.
	Hmm.
	Hmm.
	Right.
	Yeah.
	But Labour said that meaningful changes to law are needed.
	So, breaking news, murder is to become illegal in the UK, I don't know.
	So following a meeting of the government's Crime and Justice Taskforce, Downing Street said it would take immediate steps to give further reassurance to women and girls in the wake of the killing.
	It's like, but what are you going to do?
	You know, they said double the Safer Streets Fund and have these undercover police send around.
	And so, fast forward to this month, or last month now, and we get to the court trial.
	And The Guardian reports some interesting details, which are not good for anything that the authorities wish to do, because Wayne Cousins used his station as a police officer to kidnap her.
	Were he not a police officer, this wouldn't have been possible, at least in the way he did it.
	So he used his police warrant card and handcuffs to lure her off the street before strangling her with his police belt and burning her body.
	Video footage shows Cousins, then a serving metropolitan officer, staging a false arrest of Everard as she returned from the house for breaking coronavirus lockdown measures.
	He used the pretext that she had broken these regulations to stop her, and this is why she complied.
	He was off duty at the time, but wore his police belts.
	He encountered Everard at 9.30 when she was walking home.
	A woman witnessed the start of Cousin's kidnapping of Everard, saw him handcuff her on the pavement.
	The passerby said that she thought she was witnessing an undercover police officer arresting a woman who she assumed must have done something wrong.
	Not unreasonably so.
	Why would she think anything strange of it?
	He handcuffed her in the back seat of his car and drove 80 miles to Kent, which he then took her somewhere and raped and murdered her.
	So, Cousins hired a car, bought adhesive tape before hunting for a lone young female to kidnap and rape as part of a premeditated mission on the night that she was abducted, the prosecution said.
	Police released images of Cousins wringing his hands as he bought a drink and a Bakewell tart the following day.
	Days later, he returned to the scene where he'd set up a makeshift pyre to burn his victim's body for a day trip with his wife and children.
	Weird.
	Everard's murder rocked Britain and led to an outcry of women's safety on the streets.
	Police fear the full details of the crime will trigger growing revulsion and anger.
	But the thing is, this isn't just like a random attack on a street where it's...
	It's not premeditated, where it's just sort of like a random occurrence.
	Some guy saw a woman and was like, well, I'm just going to give it a go.
	This was someone who's obviously evil, who had thought this through, taken all of the necessary steps he required to be able to kidnap someone and then found someone to kidnap.
	So this isn't like about women's safety.
	This is about a lunatic, a very evil person who had thought about, and obviously thought about this for quite some time, And then had, you know, done something terrible, right?
	That's not really the sort of thing you can actually prepare for in any significant manner.
	And it's certainly not like indicative of a widespread hatred of women amongst the general public.
	Or even an increase.
	Or even an increase?
	I think also comparing that line of deaths per 100,000 or whatever you use to other countries...
	Well, it was just 200.
	I understand, but you compare it to other countries just to be like, is there a situation in Britain that's unique?
	And the answer is no.
	No, we're one of the safest countries in the world for women.
	Yep.
	Anyway, moving on.
	So, of course, all of the left-wing rags were going, well, you missed all the warning signs.
	And don't get me wrong, it's not that there weren't warning signs, it's just...
	You can't really, like, take any one of them out into abstract and say, well, look, this is the proof, because none of them in and of themselves are, right?
	So in 2015, there was an indecent exposure claim against the man thought to be cousins.
	So apparently someone was reported to be seeing a man driving car naked from the waist down, and it's alleged to have been him.
	Maybe.
	We don't know.
	In February 2021, there were more indecent exposure claims before Everard's death.
	Cousins was accused in two cases of indecent exposure in a McDonald's.
	Don't get me wrong, I would have thought that this would have been investigated.
	I imagine McDonald's has CCTV. And I would have thought that it is fair that, you know, a police officer should probably have been fired for indecently exposing himself in a McDonald's.
	That seems like...
	Unpolice-worthy behaviour.
	And then another part was in 2002 he worked at a garage and he was nicknamed the Rapist because he made female colleagues feel uncomfortable and some of them were aware that he was attracted to violent sexual pornography.
	Again, that's not really enough in and of itself.
	And then you've got the preparing for the attack on Miss Everard, so he hired a car, he purchased, they say a pack of 14 hair braids, so that's not evidence that he's going to do something.
	And of course he filled a petrol canister at a BP station in Dover, that's not proof of anything.
	And they complained that there was a lack of vetting and probation because he was not given enhanced vetting when he joined because this was due to a rush to get officers into the force following the Paris terror attacks in 2017.
	So none of this in isolation is enough for any kind of judgment, as gross as some of it is.
	And his wife, and let's have a bit of sympathy, his wife was the 30-something-year-old woman who was arrested, but of course released because she apparently had nothing to do with it.
	Elena Cousins, 38, said, I keep on asking why.
	What Wayne did wasn't human behavior.
	She says his wife is still picking up the pieces of her shattered life and rebuilding it together with the couple's two young children.
	I mean, what an awful, awful thing to happen to her.
	And that's the problem, isn't it?
	Sometimes these things can just happen.
	You know, someone does something evil and doesn't necessarily give the closest people to them any particular sign that this is going to happen.
	There's not really anything that could have been done to militate against this, as far as I can see.
	Well, unless you have police on every street corner.
	Well, what they're asking for really is pre-crime, like in, what was that, Tom Cruise?
	No, but you could if he had a series of actions that were deemed, like you could show that he's buying manuals on how to murder and get rid of a body or something like that, right?
	Sure, but then you've...
	Yeah, but exactly.
	It's a pretty specific series of events you'd have to be looking out for.
	But the complaint is, well, look, a bad thing happened and we couldn't prevent it.
	It's like, yeah, I don't really know what could have been done to prevent this.
	Well, that kind of preemptive action does happen in terrorism cases, but for this one...
	There's an actual sort of, you know, you downloaded ISIS manuals, you know, hang out in ISIS forums or something, blah, blah, blah, right?
	That's the ideal.
	Yeah, exactly.
	A traceable pattern of behavior.
	But if his wife's like, well, he wasn't doing anything, you know, he wasn't violent or something, there's no particular reason to think that he was going to do something, what can you do other than engage in some sort of minority report pre-crime telepaths or something?
	But anyway, so Cousins was given a whole life order, which is usually reserved for terrorists.
	It's the most extreme thing they can do, really, because apparently we are all against the death penalty.
	But this is just death by prison, really, isn't it?
	But he was given this whole life order for the grotesque killing, and Lord Justice Fulford said that this was given because of the seriousness of the case.
	We're so exceptionally high because of the grotesque killing of Everard, and at that point everyone went into a meltdown for some reason.
	Like, I don't see what more could be done, you know, other than hanging him publicly, which I'm not against, by the way.
	I've very much changed my position on the death penalty.
	If you know the guy's done it, what's the point in waiting?
	Anyway, the Guardian opinion section is one example of this, but there were many, many, many examples of very radically left-wing people acting as if this was some kind of political event, which I don't think it was.
	Obviously, you can see the title here.
	Slamming the cell door on Wayne Cousins won't fix women's fragile faith in the police.
	Women are now anxiously asking questions that would, for some, have been unthinkable.
	If you're driving home alone and an unmarked police car signals feed stops, should you?
	How should you respond to a lone woman being arrested on the street?
	What if a detective knocks on your door, supposedly with a warrant, late at night?
	Murder is rare, and murders like this more vanishingly so.
	Well, that's lucky.
	But Cousins wasn't the only rotten apple in the barrel.
	Since 2009, at least 15 serving or former police officers have been convicted of murder, in most cases of their wives or girlfriends, according to the Femicide Census database.
	So, in 12 years, 15 women have been murdered by former or serving police officers.
	There are going to be tens of thousands of police officers.
	Again, some things just can't be prevented.
	I don't know what to say.
	You know, this is unfortunately a sad fact of life.
	There is no one country that has solved that.
	No.
	And there is no solving this other than, I mean, the absolute obliteration of personal freedoms.
	But even then, the people in charge of maintaining this new tyrannical feminist police state are going to be human themselves.
	And some of those people will be psychopathic or murderous or whatever it is and will do something terrible.
	That's unfortunately just an aspect of the human condition, it seems.
	But anyway, so this went further with, you know, the further left you got.
	If you get to the communists, they just came out and said, well, the police are institutionally misogynist.
	Okay?
	Thank you, person who's looking to overthrow the British government.
	Appreciate that.
	Really useful.
	Moving on, Christina Dick decided to apologise for this, even though...
	It's not really her fault, and it's not really the police's fault, maybe.
	Well, I mean, maybe you could argue in some tangential way because Cousins was fast-tracked in because they wanted new police officers in the wake of the terror attack.
	Maybe you could say that's their fault.
	It wasn't properly vetted, possibly.
	But she apologised because, of course, this horrified and sickened her, which, of course, it did.
	But she called it...
	Excuse me.
	Dick acknowledged the public's trust in the police had been eroded by Cousins' gross betrayal and promised to work to help women feel safer.
	Which, okay, great.
	So, Dick's going to keep her job because the establishment closed ranks around her.
	Now, I've got political reasons for not liking Christina Dick.
	She's a radical leftist.
	She's crap at her job.
	She needs to go.
	You would have thought that'd be enough.
	Yeah.
	But no, everyone...
	And this left and right, Keir Starmer, Boris Johnson, Dominic Raab, they've all closed ranks around it.
	It's like, okay, why?
	What's so good about her?
	Why is she so special?
	But anyway, moving on.
	Let me start getting into the absurd.
	So what can be done?
	If the police can't be trusted to protect women, what are our options here?
	I posted this one on Gab because it was just insane.
	So the police have urged women to call the police if a lone officer approaches them and they are concerned.
	Help!
	Police!
	What's the problem, man?
	There's a police officer approaching me.
	Don't worry, we'll get someone there right away.
	I mean, this is the advice if there's, you know, suspicious about a fake police officer.
	Sure.
	But if you're going to have to call the police every time you meet the police, I feel like this isn't going to work.
	Well, it just seems to be a loop of infinite recursion.
	Oh no, there's another police officer.
	Help!
	Police!
	Another police officer's arrived.
	Quick, send some more police!
	I mean, where do we go from here?
	It's just deranged descent into paranoia and lunacy.
	Unfortunately, this can't be the case.
	And honestly, I don't envy the position they're in now because they're like, right, okay, we've got to think of something.
	It's like, yeah, sure.
	So the Met announced on Tuesday that they would no longer deploy plainclothes officers on their own after sentencing was heard.
	And the force encouraged members of the public to challenge lone plainclothes police officers if they are ever approached, asking where the officer's colleagues are, where they have come from, why they are there, and exactly why they are stopping or talking to them.
	It also suggests verifying the police officer's identity by asking to hear the radio operator or asking to speak to the radio operator themselves.
	So now the police as an institution is just completely in doubt, right?
	But if the person still doesn't feel safe, The force said that they should consider shouting to a passerby, running into a house, knocking on a door, or waving a bus down.
	I was mad.
	The bus is going to stop you?
	Yeah, sorry, I'm being questioned by the police.
	Mr.
	Bus Driver, save me?
	I don't think it's his job, frankly, but, like, this is absurd, right?
	And so, obviously, everyone everywhere was like, this is ridiculous.
	So, one activist who was arrested at the vigil for Everard said it would be laughable if it wasn't so disgusting.
	And it's like, well, it is laughable.
	It's just absurd.
	I feel like they're just clutching at straws because the advice isn't relevant.
	It's like a distraction because, number one, in that situation, you can't just stop or hail down a bus or a taxi or something.
	Well, yeah, absolutely.
	What are you supposed to do?
	You're being arrested.
	You're being taken in by the police.
	But, uh, this is absurd and Labour MP Bell Ribeiro Addy said, uh, we want to know what the Mets are doing to address the deeply rooted problems with violence against women within the force.
	This completely derisory advice shows they're still not taking it seriously and they wonder why trust is at an all-time low.
	So what are our options here?
	What can be done?
	All female police forces, perhaps?
	Don't look at me like that!
	Don't look at me like that!
	Hey!
	Are they serious?
	Where can we go?
	What are we supposed to do?
	If the police themselves are the issue, because the police, many of them, most of them are men, and the men are the problem, what options do we have except nothing but women?
	Stealing my immigration policy here.
	They basically are, yeah.
	Ugh.
	Well, they don't know what to do themselves, so they're like, well, make violence against women a top priority.
	So Vera Baird, the Victims Commissioner for England and Wales, which was a role created in 2004 by Tony Blair, says that police forces should be compelled to deal with violence against women and girls with the same level of resources, expertise and urgency as terrorism or organised crime.
	But that's moved the onus, hasn't it?
	Because, well, we're not saying it's not attacks from the public on women that's the problem.
	No, no, no.
	It's the police themselves.
	So being like, yeah, so the police are going to deal with attacks on women.
	It's like...
	Yeah, but they are the problem, as far as you're concerned.
	Like, there's nowhere to go from this point, unless you have some sort of body behind the police, made up maybe of just women, female commissioners or something, who are just like, right, we're going to police the police, and then they're going to police the public or something.
	But anyway, so you said that violence against women and girls should be made a strategic policing requirement to give the issue central direction and extra resources, particularly specialist officers, so there's no doubt what obligations the police have towards victims.
	See?
	It's going to be a police force of women to police the police.
	I mean, all this, again, based on a statistical flatline.
	Yeah.
	Because of one unfortunate and tragic and evil incident.
	Right.
	She said, there are many unanswered questions about how violence against women and girls is policed.
	I think through the clear requirement, it sends a message, which is, what is priority?
	But again, what happens when the victimizer is the police officer?
	Keir Starmer has called for an inquiry into this, saying he wants to know how he slipped through the cracks.
	It's like, well, I think we already know because of the terror in France and Paris.
	And Andrea Simmon, the director of End Violence Against Women Coalition, said, violence against women and girls at an epidemic level.
	No, it's not.
	At least not by the statistics.
	Get off with social media.
	The police inspectorate has said the whole system needs an overhaul.
	The government has already apologised for the shameful low rates of prosecution of rape.
	What more do we need to uncover?
	We actually just need to move to do something about it.
	We've had all of these reviews and we've seen no material change.
	So one conservative former police commissioner from North Yorkshire said, well, maybe women could be more streetwise about their rights because Sarah Everard need not have accepted that she was being arrested because she wasn't doing anything wrong.
	North Yorkshire commissioner Philip Abbott sparked fury when he said Everard never should have submitted to the arrest by her killer.
	Women, first of all, need to be streetwise about when they can be arrested and when they can't be arrested.
	She should never have been arrested and submitted to that.
	Perhaps women need to consider it in terms of the legal process just to learn a bit more about the legal process.
	him pointing out that, look, there are things that women can do...
	Sparked a lot of backlash.
	I mean, don't get me wrong, it's bad timing.
	It's advice, but it's not really an argument.
	What are you meant to have done?
	Just be like, I know my rights.
	Yeah, okay, well you'll get in the car.
	I don't think it would have stopped one shot.
	I don't know, maybe.
	Who knows?
	Because there were witnesses who saw her, so maybe if she was, you know...
	No one would have interacted still.
	Some woman screaming about getting arrested, who cares?
	I don't know.
	But basically he had to apologize in full and say, look, my remarks are insensitive, I wish to retract them.
	And then we get to the final phase of this argument, which is that men need to change.
	If you can see from the Telegraph, it's just enough to look at the headline to know where this is going.
	It's not enough to just listen.
	Men need a seismic shift in our behaviour, starting with jokey banter.
	There are many factors that create somebody like Wayne Cousins, but only a seismic shift in our concepts of masculinity will cure our society.
	That's right.
	Men are the problem.
	Say the Telegraph.
	The Conservative Paper of Great Britain.
	I mean, we've seen this before in Scandinavia.
	Just change the culture and you'll stop male rapists and murderers existing.
	Yes.
	It doesn't work.
	No.
	But anyway, that's the insanity surrounding the murder of Sarah Everard.
	A tragic event that I don't think could have been prevented and I don't think anything productive can be solved from it.
	You know they were talking a lot about that at the Labour conference as well.
	Oh, no doubt.
	But the thing is, it's not politically actionable because it wasn't a political event.
	It seems to have been based on his personal fetishes.
	Like, he seems to have had a fetish.
	Like, his murderous intent.
	Yeah, but like, because, you know, there's a history he had enjoying violent pornography or something.
	And so clearly it was a sexual act.
	He raped and murdered her.
	So it's not political.
	It's something to do wrong in his brain that's the problem.
	This isn't him being like, right, I'm going to assert men over women or something.
	It's a political statement.
	So turning it into a political statement, that's not what it was.
	Not everything is.
	Yeah, and you can't change it.
	You can't change anything with this.
	Anyway, moving on.
	So we're going to white people.
	So white people are apparently genetically defective mutants.
	This is according to a government website.
	Fantastic.
	So Black History Month website deletes article calling white people genetically defective mutants, as reported by Russia Today.
	They're actually quoting the Telegraph here.
	I just couldn't get the Telegraph's one because it's behind a paywall.
	At least they have the good grace to delete it.
	I guess.
	I mean, after being found out.
	I mean, I'm surprised they weren't just like, yeah, and...
	True, actually.
	Half expect them to do that.
	So as the UK celebrates Black History Month, a website promoting the event has deleted content featuring claims that white people are genetically defective mutants, which had appeared beside taxpayer-funded ads.
	The Black History Month website is not run by the British government, but it is one of the most prominent outlets promoting the month.
	It's also very much tied to the British state and deep state, which I'll go in a minute.
	And has featured content by prominent British politicians, all of whom pledged their support for the event and pledged to, quote, fight for racial justice.
	Yeah.
	Justice.
	Getting what you deserve.
	Racial justice.
	The race is getting what they deserve.
	Not a liberal concept, an entirely socialist concept.
	Also, let me tell you about how white people are genetically defective mutants.
	Anyway, that quote was from a liberal Democrat, leader Ed Davey.
	Of course, liberal.
	Every time.
	He wrote an article published on the site on Friday.
	It has also featured far more provocative and racist content.
	A 2016 article on the site explains the work of American psychiatrist Francis Kress-Welzig.
	Who theorised that white people were originally, quote, genetically defective mutants who were driven from Africa by the black natives.
	Well, that's not true.
	Does she think that race mixing is impossible as well?
	But that's just not true.
	But how do you even get to the idea that white people exist as a thing in Africa, and black people exist as a thing in Africa, and it's just that they kicked the whiteys out?
	It wasn't that their skin changed because they're in a different climate?
	Yeah.
	I mean, like...
	But how does she explain race mixing, then?
	So, well, yeah, okay, good point.
	But, like, we know that that's not true.
	We know that, like, white skin developed something like 7,000 years ago in Northwest Europe because it was not necessary to have high concentrations of melanin in the skin.
	And also, if you're in climates that have got lower amounts of sunshine, then you get less vitamin D. And vitamin D is important for human beings.
	And you see this in all northern climates.
	So you've got people in China or Japan where their skin is also very light, or you've got people in Central America in the tropics where their skin is also very dark to protect them against the harmful effects of the sun or to compensate for having less amounts of sunlight.
	This is obviously not true.
	That's one theory.
	Okay, yeah, that's the evolutionary theory.
	You know, that's what the science suggests.
	But an American has an idea.
	I'm sorry to S on Americans, but the far-left campuses in America do produce the most amazing things.
	So she argues, once expelled from the continent, Vilsack argued, white people turned to racism and white supremacy to protect this mutation.
	Right.
	And their lack of a skin pigment medellin encouraged their deviation from morality.
	Either or, you know, it could have been one of these two.
	Blackness, Welzig opinionated, was therefore an established basis for moral, or more specifically, normal human behaviour.
	Right.
	Could she define blackness?
	I presume not.
	As a social construct for us?
	It's very moral.
	So the white people were kicked out of Africa by the blacks, they went to Europe or wherever, and then decided that because they were cursed with their white skin, they would turn it into white supremacy.
	Is it the Mark of Cain or something?
	There's like lightning coming out of the skies.
	Anyway.
	So, the article was still available on the site as recently as this week, according to investigation by The Telegraph.
	Alongside the article, the website hosts taxpayer-funded recruitment ads for the British Armed Forces, the government agencies, and police services, as well as ads for several UK universities.
	So that's your tax money funding these people.
	I tell you what, if they were going to recruit from any demographic of people, it's got to be their readers, it's got to be the best.
	Think white people are genetic mutants?
	join the british army uh serve the country that's uh i wonder why the uh recruitment targets keep getting missed no idea circo could could be with what you're doing anyway so it was pulled from the site after the telegraphs investigation and only after that but other racially questionable content is still live a 2020 article by reach society a social entrepreneur via the black professionals mentor black boys i don't know what kind of name that is and that is the receipt of the queen's award for voluntary service
	this states that quote europeans have been encouraged to be morally monstrous to non-europeans for so long this behavior has become second nature ah yes because everyone in africa is just plucking daisies and singing hymns Africans have never been monstrous to other Africans.
	It's just the Europeans who are monstrous to Africans.
	Don't even get me started on what the Arabs have been doing to the Africans.
	It's just noble land of Rhodesia, and then the evil white man turned up.
	Yeah.
	Then immorality came to the continent.
	Sure.
	So the website is linked to a magazine of the same name and appears in the top search result for Black History Month in the UK. Bizarrely, it is run by a white advertising executive and was established as a private business rather than a charity.
	Wow, I can't believe you're getting run by these dudes.
	Hmm.
	Turns out, we've been on this website before on this podcast.
	Oh, hopefully.
	Yeah, so this is a segment I did with Beau back in the day.
	Wokism was run by the Theds.
	And this was, I think it was MI5's website?
	And there was a whole bunch of things of like, yeah, we're endorsed by Stonewall, which is not something to be proud of.
	And then they have the Black History Month logo there, and you couldn't click on it.
	It was non-interactive for some reason.
	Oh, I wonder why.
	Anyway, let's go to the website itself, just to have a look at some of their stuff.
	This is the website they're talking about.
	Some people might recognize it.
	At MI5, MI6, and GCHQ, our core mission is to keep this country safe.
	An article from them, the deep state, giving us their thoughts on the genetically defected people of the country.
	At MI5, MI6, and GCHQ, our core mission is to keep the country safe, as everyone knows that's an important undertaking.
	But there is another responsibility we equally take seriously.
	To ensure our workforce are as diverse as the society we serve.
	Oh, God!
	I know, it's every time.
	Shut up!
	I'm going to mention the book club we did on Robert Conquest's Reflections on a Ravaged Century, because there's a beautiful quote that kind of fits with this perfectly, which is talking about the British Army, and there were some ministers who gave the argument, the armed forces must reflect their society.
	Conquest says, one may ask, why?
	And what does this mean?
	Also, where does this must come from?
	Where is the argument that, let's say, Arabs make up X percentage and therefore must make up X percentage of MI5? Doesn't make any sense.
	No, you hire the person who's suitable for the role.
	I mean, why would you be sending Arabs into, I don't know, Scotland to check up on the extremists up there?
	You presumably want to send some Scots.
	I don't know.
	Again, Roller Conquest makes great points.
	Go check out the book club.
	It's really good.
	Yeah.
	They also say in here, GCHQ writing, one recent example being a summer diversity internship for those from an ethnic minority background.
	Again, literally segregating the applicants into allowed and not allowed on the basis of their race, and the white applicants not allowed.
	Sorry, the genetic mutants not allowed.
	Yeah, literally.
	Oh, boy.
	That's the intelligence services of the UK. Fantastic.
	I'm glad they're funding this.
	So, anyway, let's move on.
	So, we go to the next one here.
	This is also something I remembered to dig up because it was funny.
	Black History Month School Resources Pack from GCHQ. Why?
	Just, like, why are you doing this?
	Why are you wasting everyone's time and money on this?
	GCHQ Race, Ethnicity, and Cultural Heritage Staff Network.
	All right, defund immediately.
	Yeah.
	Has created a resource pack for schools and youth groups suitable for ages 7 to 10 and 11 plus.
	Yeah.
	I mean, this is just the black version of Nazism.
	I just can't get over why they're doing this.
	Hang on, do you think if we spent a bit of time searching, we could find Hitler or the Nazis saying roughly the same that they've said about white people about Jews?
	Many a time, which is why there is actually a meme called, what is it, Nazi arrest GW? Yes.
	You just take a quote, shove it up there and be like, alright guys, Nazi arrest GW. I mean, defective mutants, they probably didn't have genetics back in the 40s, but defective mutants, subhumans, things like that, they've turned to racism and they hate the Germans.
	Easily, easily could have found a dozen Nazi quotes that sound exactly the same.
	I did one of those a while back.
	It was a guy talking about his racial comrades.
	Great.
	You've got to have a stab at the answer, Nazi arrest JW. Both?
	Yeah, literally.
	They both use that exact language.
	Anyway, so continuing with GCHQ, Black History Month is celebrated during the month of October in the UK, but also observed in Ireland, Canada, US, and the Netherlands, and different times of the calendar.
	Originally, it was the brainchild of American Carter G. Woodson in 1920s, who recognised a huge gap in the American education system when it came to African-American history.
	Nothing to do with Britain every goddamn time.
	There is no thinking here whatsoever of what it has to do with you.
	It's just, well, it's part of the international Yankee curriculum on wokeism now.
	Yeah, this is American imperialism.
	Every time.
	And into GCHQ, which then send it to the kids.
	So we go to the next one here.
	No, but that is a really good point.
	It's like, oh, well, America invented this.
	So?
	Exactly.
	Yeah.
	Well, why are you talking to us about it, then?
	Where does this lead?
	No hate Americans, obviously.
	It's just, this has nothing to do with us.
	Look, leftist Americans, I have plenty.
	Yeah.
	Anyway, so, nothing to see here, of course.
	So you can see lotuses.com posting here the job that GCHQ were looking for at the time that they posted that article.
	It's just the UK state openly discriminating against white people.
	Quote from them.
	Please note, the registration of interest is only open to those from an ethnic minority background, or women from any ethnic background.
	They have white women, but not white men.
	White men band.
	Literally.
	I guess white women are less genetically defective in their mutations.
	White women are acceptable.
	They're not quite as mutate as the men.
	At least according to our own security services.
	Thanks guys.
	Glad we paid for you.
	Moving on.
	So let's go to the next one here.
	This is just that they updated it.
	And they said, following registration of interest in the period over several weeks, we'll open this role to applications at this stage.
	Applicants from all candidates of ethnic backgrounds and genders are welcome.
	Even genetic mutants.
	So good luck.
	Sorry, no.
	Good work to Ranvier Bullying.
	And I'm sure that there will be absolutely no kind of intrinsic or implicit bias.
	So you can apply, and you won't get that job.
	So fellow mutants, you can apply for that job, and I'm sure that there is no actual systemic racism of them saying, we don't want Whitey, even though they literally wrote it on their own application.
	Even though we've been forced into allowing Whitey to be able to apply.
	So let's get back to the Genetic Mutant website.
	One of the things I found interesting is that Kemi actually wrote something for them, presumably not knowing who the hell they are, because the government has loads of ties with them for some reason, and this is something I would say to Kemi, needs to be defunded.
	Although I did find it interesting that she's writing for these snakes, but she just is inserting individualism into this nonsense.
	So, she says, I am still struck by how differently we talk about black history in the UK compared to how I was taught growing up in a country of 200 million people where every woman is black.
	You guys are friggin' weird.
	Even then, I recognised identity as a complex issue, unique to every individual, skin colour being almost a negligible part of it.
	More salient were culture, language, and geography.
	and then she goes on to argue in an individualist manner which is solid, I just find it weird that she wrote for this, presumably just because no one had told her, they think that white people are genetic mutants, but whatever amazingly though, I do end up finding myself agreeing with Dawn Butler of all people, so she wrote a thing on here which she argued it is no secret that I would like so she wrote a thing on here which she argued it is no secret that I would like to get to a point so our history is not confined to 31 days because all our shared history should be celebrated, taught and recognised equally why not move to Nigeria?
	They speak English, they're all black.
	No, but the point being that we shouldn't segregate black history.
	It should just be history.
	Well, yeah, and in Nigeria, it is just history, isn't it?
	She doesn't have to hear about English history from the Middle Ages in Nigeria, probably.
	Yeah, but then Butler, being a leftist, has to ruin it.
	But it continues to be in importance, and we have more honest conversations on race since the brutal murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement.
	Whatever.
	Whatever you say, Dawn.
	I love it.
	She's like, yeah, segregating history, that's a bad thing, but George Floyd?
	Like, I meant to fall for that, but no.
	Anyway.
	But let's move on.
	I just wanted to talk about a couple of things that some people at the live events mentioned to me, which I thought were really funny, and they're kind of old, but we have to go through them, because they fit perfectly with the genetic mutant stuff.
	So the first one here.
	Anti-racism event hosted by Edinburgh University bans white people from asking questions.
	I mean, in their defence, they're all Labour voters, so I would ban them too.
	Yeah.
	The conference has been organised by the Resisting Whiteness Group.
	Ha ha!
	Existing whiteness.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	It opposes racism.
	Sure.
	And that's why they kicked all the white people from the Q&A. Oh, yeah.
	And describes itself as a QTPOC. Well, remember how this works, right?
	Zero white people means zero racism.
	Yes.
	That's how that works.
	No, because then there's still anti-blackness, as that CNN... Hey, that doesn't equate to racism.
	Okay.
	So there are QTPOC. Can you guess what QTPOC means?
	Queer and Trans People of Color Organization.
	Another acronym for the alphabet.
	There will be two safe spaces at the event, one of which white people will be barred from entering.
	LAUGHTER Boy, I'm an anti-racist, folks.
	Not that drinking fountain.
	Your fountain's over there.
	Genetic mutant.
	Quote from them.
	We will therefore not be giving the microphone to white people during the Q&As.
	Not because we don't think white people have anything to offer to the discussion.
	You do think that.
	Oh, no, no, that's even better.
	That's even better.
	It's not that we don't think you've got anything interesting.
	You've got merit.
	It's just you're white.
	Yes.
	Literally, that's it.
	It's not this.
	You're just a genetic mutant, and I wouldn't want to be in the same room as you if I could help her.
	God.
	But because we want to amplify the voices of people of colour...
	Literally, you were born wrong.
	Yeah.
	If you are a white person with a question, please share it with a member of the committee or our speakers after the panel discussion.
	Use the back entrance.
	Yeah, exactly!
	God!
	And someone wrote in here, it was funny, they wrote, Imagine if this event was called Resisting Blackness, with non-white people being told that they could not ask questions, nor access a room because they were the wrong colour.
	Yeah, something to think about.
	I can only imagine the international explosion around the media, if that were the case.
	And the student bodies at Edinburgh have nothing to stop them, presumably, because this was allowed to take place.
	And there is one more thing in Edinburgh that I found really funny that I'm just going to mention, which is, of course, it gets worse because it's Scotland.
	We go to the next one.
	This is our struggle.
	Edinburgh BAME community, replace white organisers to run race protests.
	What?
	So the word for struggle in German is Kampf.
	Yeah, das ist unser Kampf.
	No, not that it matters, you know.
	Das ist mein Kampf und unser Kampf.
	Anyway, so the former organisers of the Black Lives Matter protest planned in Edinburgh have apologised and stepped aside to allow the capital's black and minority ethnic, BAME, community to lead the event.
	Alright, so the organisers were white.
	Yes.
	So the genetic mutants were like, oh god, I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry we're mutants.
	It's like a bunch of Jews organising a Nazi party rally or something and then being like, oh we better stop because we're not.
	Apparently there were some Jews who did go to Hitler's rallies and used to chant down with us because they thought it was a meme.
	It wasn't a meme.
	Anyway, so these non-Aryans, I presume, stepped down to allow the more Aryan race of Boehm to take its rightful place as the superiors in this race protest.
	I just can't stand the left at this point.
	This is our struggle, and we have been...
	We have to be the face of it.
	You can't have white people speaking on our experiences when they have no experience of it.
	Oh god, it just sounds like Nazi rhetoric.
	This is unser Kampf.
	Wir kannig haben, der Weiz.
	No, no whites allowed.
	Just Juden speaking on our experiences when they have no experience of it.
	Oh god.
	So that's Scotland, and also surrounding the whole situation with the genetic mutants that are you and me, my friend.
	We are no longer people, but genetic mutants.
	According to government-funded websites...
	In the UK. Well, at least we know our place in the hierarchy now.
	Yeah, also GCSQ. At the bottom.
	That also has that opinion.
	God.
	Can't you imagine being in court and bringing that up?
	They're, like, charging with something.
	Yeah, well, you!
	Just...
	Well, I mean, honestly, on the plus side, the more they reveal themselves, the more undeniable it becomes.
	Let's move on to the video comments.
	Hey, guys, I need some help with something.
	I really want to be some sort of alternative school teacher that actually teaches children about something useful like morals and ethics and...
	Stuff like that.
	That's the end goal, but I don't know how to get there.
	I don't know if I need to try to start doing something on YouTube or if I need to go and get some sort of certificate to start teaching and teaching the public school system and then try to work my way out of that or teaching academia.
	So if you guys could give me any insight or something, I'd appreciate it.
	You know anything about becoming a teacher?
	No, because I'm not one.
	No, me either.
	But I would suggest you do have to go on a course.
	There are probably courses that you should take.
	And honestly, staying inside the public school system is not going to be hugely profitable, but it's probably necessary.
	We need people inside the schools who are not insane leftists, because if you're not teaching kids, some communists will be.
	I think Roger Scruton, I presume, has talked about this before.
	Probably, yeah.
	Because you know how he went back to Oxford and did loads of teaching.
	Oh yeah, he was at the Birkbeck in London, and he was like, well, this is basically a captured institution full of communists.
	But he still stuck it out.
	Was he wrong?
	For a while, yeah.
	Three things.
	One, Callum, I told you that there were simps in the live chat.
	Jonathan has now confirmed it, but according to him there was only one this time.
	Secondly, Thank you and well done live chat for calling out the simp.
	They're pathetic.
	Thirdly, the simp himself.
	Mate, they're never going to date you.
	Sophie is never going to date you.
	Women do not find some pathetic groveling simp attractive.
	Go to the gym.
	Become a man.
	I mean, that's correct advice.
	Don't even look for women.
	Go and do whatever it is you're doing, as I keep telling Callum.
	Don't even talk to women.
	No.
	Don't even look at women.
	Basically, yeah, no, that's basically it, right?
	So go and do whatever it is you're doing, and a woman will find you attractive and be interested, and if you're interested in her, you can accept her advances, or like, not advances, but like, accept her interest in you and cultivate that, or you can deny it and move on and wait for the next one.
	You remember that segment we did on the sandwiches?
	Value yourself is what I'm saying.
	Where the woman was like, I make the sandwich, and the HuffPo were personally attacked by that.
	In my mind, your position has got to the point where it's just like, yes, your wife should be someone you don't do anything nice for.
	The woman you want to find is someone you should never, ever see.
	It should be a hostile camp in a foreign land.
	Of course, that's not my position.
	But, no, no, just get on with your life, and women will present themselves as dateable prospects, and if you're interested, then you can date them.
	Moving on.
	So, with the constantly increasing levels of coercion for people to get the jab here in Australia, I have a quick question for fellow Aussies here, and for you guys, I suppose.
	What is your level of submission?
	At what point are you guys going to submit?
	And who wants to join me in the eventual rating of Woolies trucks so we can get some food?
	Yeah, I'm just never doing it.
	I'm going to go to a country that's a totalitarian hellhole, so it's kind of the least of my problems.
	So I'll be doing that.
	But are you going to get the jab, are you?
	You will probably have to.
	It'll be a mandatory thing.
	I'm not doing it.
	I'm not even going to get a test.
	Don't care.
	Radio?
	It's not that I think there's anything wrong with the jab, either.
	Hundreds of millions of people have had it.
	Most people have survived it.
	I'm not actually worried about that.
	I just don't like the way that this has all been done, and I'm just not doing it.
	If that means I don't get to travel abroad, then there we go.
	I hate travelling abroad anyway.
	Oh no, I have to live in England.
	It's full of foreigners, mate.
	My wife wants to go on holiday to Australia and Japan.
	I'm like, I'm not going.
	Let's go to the next one.
	That was impossible!
	Oh, s***!
	You killed a white target.
	You can see the holes.
	Thank you.
	That was very cool.
	Yeah, I'm very jealous.
	That's a free man.
	Hi, Carl.
	A friend of mine had a comment on the 1950s tradwipe thing that this is a period of affluence that wouldn't have existed before the Industrial Revolution.
	It is starting to wane since the welfare state.
	Women would have been working in the farms doing the less heavy work, and children too, in order to keep the family from starving to death.
	To put that another way, tradwives are not traditional.
	Well, that's an interesting way of putting it, but I guess what you describe it as is aspirational.
	What?
	Could you imagine getting a...
	You know, she's got all the traditional dress, she's proper gender roles, pure, blah, blah, blah.
	And then, you know, you get married or whatever, and you got her, and you're like, yeah, now get in the fields, you poe.
	Well, you just push her out into the back garden, and they're like, plant some seeds!
	Well, no, they just...
	I don't think we're going to return to a broadly agrarian society, so I don't think you have to worry about that.
	I don't think he's arguing for it, but it's just the meme of the idea of, like, you're not a real trad wife until you've planted me my dinner.
	Well, yeah, true.
	No, look at it as an aspirational thing.
	You know, maybe one day if you're earning enough, then you will be able to be in that position.
	If not, your wife will have to work part-time or go on to do whatever it is she does.
	But yeah, I think it's the goal, isn't it?
	Sorry, is the goal farming?
	No, not farming.
	What do you mean by the goal, then?
	Well, the goal is that you can earn enough so your wife can raise the kids.
	Right, okay.
	Not plant the fields and the kids work.
	Again, when we say traditional, I mean, you know, depends on the class, doesn't it?
	You know, not traditional for the peasantry.
	But even then, like, if you go back like 100 years or something, you know, the women weren't in the fields, at least in, like, my family history, but they would do things at home, like, you know, making clothes and things like that, right?
	in the book club on Mao's Great Famine there's a great section there where it's just called Women and he starts off with like the communists were like yeah women liberation now they all work in the fields because they put them all in the commune and then well it sucked like they couldn't get paid the same because they couldn't do the same amount of labour also all the useful stuff they used to do they no longer did so none of that was done like him saying make clothes or take care of the kids or all the rest of it so that was the trad wife of China apparently because it wasn't just that they were all I don't think that's correct.
	But they did do things, obviously, and these sort of social labours are very important and necessary, and so I don't think they should be disrespected in the way that the feminists do.
	Oh, you don't want to be a housewife, do you?
	What?
	Keeping the world running?
	That's good.
	I think it's respectable.
	Anyway.
	So I have a manga slash history question for Sargon and Bro.
	I'm reading the series about Ymini's service to King Philip and Alexander, and two of the main villains are Demosthenes and Phocion.
	I recall Sargon speaking well of Demosthenes, but what is his take on Phocion, since Phocion did eventually vassalize Athens in order to go and fight Persia?
	Is he a general melee, or is he a very far-thinking strategist?
	Thought from the audience.
	As with all of these things, it depends on your perspective.
	Because, I mean, I personally wouldn't want to see, if I was an Athenian, I wouldn't want to see, like, you know, Greece subject to Philip of Macedon.
	But then, from Philip's perspective, that does make Demosthenes and Phocian villains.
	So, I'll see if we can do a history epox on it.
	So, you know, because it's something that requires more.
	In-depth examination.
	Philip Maston's takeover of Greece is a fascinating thing anyway.
	I've been reading the Federalist Papers a lot recently, which is really boring for most people, but I'm really enjoying it.
	And it was Hamilton who points out that it was Philip's ascension into the Amphictyone League, I think it is, that basically sealed the fate of Greece because Philip's like a king and a hegemon and It's a very powerful state, and a bunch of republics basically couldn't deal with this.
	And this was something that he thought the American Republic would have to be wary of.
	But yeah, I'll do an epoch on it at some point, because it needs an expansive answer.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Hey guys, so while I walked away from the university, all is not lost.
	The Navy actually has, um, non-resident training courses.
	These are books that should be free, um, because the government paid for it.
	And there's things like, uh, there's NEETS, uh, Navy Electricity and Electronic Training Series.
	Yeah.
	A lot better than going to university.
	Just read through these.
	Hmm.
	I bet it is actually.
	Yeah.
	Lovely, the Navy's full of neats.
	Anyway, let's go to the next one.
	Alright, lads.
	So you talk a lot about how unfortunate it is in the UK you can't own firearms like you can in America.
	Let's show you my Mark VI Webley Revolver.
	Webley went bust, sold the rights to a sporting company who made airgun versions.
	Cartridges eject just like the original.
	You load them up, fire away.
	Just as fun, not as deadly.
	Yeah, I like Airsoft.
	I mean, don't worry, I like it too.
	That does feel like a bit of a cope, doesn't it?
	Oh yeah, it does.
	Not to disrespect your position or anything, because that does a lot of fun.
	But the Americans have got us beat, hands down.
	I think we'd also all agree we'd like our rights back.
	Until I can fire a.50 cal in England, I'm not going to be happy.
	I have to go all the way to America to do that.
	I want to do that in England.
	Just love the idea of just like you and your house when that finally comes to pass with a 50k shooting your own door down and being like, the king's men shall not end!
	That's exactly how I feel about it.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Excuse me, but I'm a f*ing bothering s* poster.
	I've triggered a lot of snowflakes to get this title.
	I deserve to be called such.
	And where's the lie?
	Moving on.
	So I was listening to this on the way home and I had to pull over so I could ask, why build a fake White House set?
	Do you need to make people think that Biden is in the White House when he's not?
	Why would you need to do that?
	What is this?
	It's totally irrational, isn't it?
	It's such a great point where it's like, could you imagine giving the order, yeah, I want a fake White House set, and the guy just looks at you, don't you have one?
	Yeah, you have a White House, sir.
	Could you sit in that one?
	Yeah.
	Like, no.
	Well, the rumours that I've heard are that he basically isn't leaving Delaware at this point, and so he needs a fake White House set to make people think that he isn't in Delaware.
	But I don't know if that's true or not.
	But in all other circumstances, it's absolutely ridiculous.
	It's like, why not just use the real White House?
	That's probably true, though, that theory.
	Yeah, exactly.
	That's why I said it.
	During the evacuation of Afghanistan, he was at, what was it, Camp David or whatever the hell it is.
	And then at some weird point, he just was like, yeah, I'm going back to my house because I missed my blanket.
	He said he wasn't sleeping properly.
	Is he like Linus from Snoopy or whatever?
	The stinky kid with the blanket.
	Oh yeah, okay, yes, literally.
	He was like, yeah, I need to go home to sleep properly.
	And then like two days later, he was like, yeah, so Afghanistan.
	I'm like, bit, bit, bit, whatever.
	Okay, old man.
	So maybe that is what the fake Linus says for.
	Most legitimate president ever.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Hey guys, to answer Callum's question from last week, I am a shift.
	And no, most companies do not buy you knives.
	You are expected to buy your own if you want them to be decent.
	Everything you see in front of you is razor sharp and you could shave with, obviously, these are knives.
	But this here is a company knife.
	Collective ownership sucks.
	Correct.
	Totally true.
	Literally the tragedy of the commons.
	Nobody is responsible for it, so nobody takes care of it.
	I remember when I, because I was working at my brother's place with him, and there's like, here's really sharp knives, you've got to be super careful with them.
	And then I got a job at Spoons, and I went to Spoons.
	I couldn't cut a tomato with their knives.
	It was utterly pointless.
	Yeah.
	Let's go to the next one.
	So, this document was recently brought to my attention, and I wanted to share it.
	It authorizes the province of Saskatchewan to take private property, lock down any part of Saskatchewan they want, forcefully remove anyone or anything they want from an area, search buildings without warrant, and destroy anything they deem necessary for the purposes of stalling an emergency.
	So most likely they're going to replace frontline staff who can't work with military doctors as winter starts because if you want to effectively fight in Canada, you need to be trained in basic winter warfare.
	The armed forces are and the populace aren't.
	If the armed forces disobey, the document also allows any qualified person to render aid.
	We trained the Chinese in basic winter warfare.
	Just saying.
	Honestly, I'm actually convinced that...
	And Trudeau, in like 2012 or something, said that he admires China's ability to turn on a dime because the government is in total control of everything and can just do whatever they want at any time.
	And I honestly would not be surprised if this was part of the plan, sort of like, you know, signify Canada.
	Yeah, I think a lot of world leaders are jealous of that authoritarian world.
	New Zealand also.
	So it's very concerning.
	Although I do love that we've got a similar situation in the UK happening.
	I don't know if you saw Majid Nows' thing on LBC about this?
	No, no.
	We haven't had time to go through it, but there's a Plan B that's been published by the British government.
	It's like, yeah, if we, for some reason, have to do a bunch of stuff, like false vaccinations, here's our plan for doing it.
	And at the same time, they're arguing that they need to fire like 100,000 care staff because they've refused them to take the vaccine.
	It's like, yeah, many of them have natural immunity, all the rest of these arguments.
	Yeah.
	No care whatsoever given.
	And it's like, right, okay, so you're going to fire all these staff, then you're going to declare there's an emergency of a lack of staff, and then you're just going to do plan B, aren't you?
	Right.
	Like, big shock.
	So I imagine they'll do a similar thing in Canada.
	Nice bassinet.
	Hello, Otuses.
	Edward Woodstock here.
	Pleased to see you've done something on the Battle of Cressy.
	Less pleased to see one of these in the thumbnail.
	This is from the 15th century, not the 14th.
	It should have been a bassinet.
	Anyway, in other news, my actual question was...
	Do you believe we are watching the disestablishment of male role models in order to promote female ones?
	I believe that this is an ongoing process and it is going to have detrimental effects in the future.
	Over to you.
	Okay, first thing, I didn't choose the thumbnail.
	I'm going to put that down to Michael, so I'll blame him.
	But I also noticed that when I saw it go up on Sunday, I was like, right, wrong helmet.
	Never mind.
	Should have expected a tongue lashing.
	Nerd.
	Yeah, shut up.
	But he's not wrong.
	But in fact, don't get me wrong, in the episode of the Epochs, we do talk about how during the Battle of Kressi, Arm was a lot less well developed than it became a few hundred years later.
	But anyway, yes, and I don't think it's controversial to say that they've been trying to get rid of male role models.
	Which is why we're constantly seeing male, you know, male role models replaced with women.
	Like the new James Bond.
	Oh, James Bond should be a woman.
	And Daniel Craig is hot take.
	I don't think so.
	Like my job?
	No, no, he's going to resign apparently because he's too old.
	But it's just like, right, so why do you hate women then, Daniel?
	Over to you.
	And he's just like, I don't.
	I just think James Bond should be a man because it was a man's role.
	But the whole thing, I don't think it's in any way controversial to say that they've been trying to...
	Feminists particularly have been trying to erode male role models for decades.
	James Bond's a particular one.
	It's a male power fantasy, like the whole thing.
	Like the women, the gambling, the cars, the danger, the being able to kill anyone you want.
	All of that's male power fantasy 101.
	One thing we can't stand is men having fantasies about succeeding at stuff.
	Go to the next one.
	Hey Lotus Eaters, Tony D and Little Joan here with another legend of the pines, the boiling well of Pasadena.
	Pasadena was the home of Bill and Peggy Clevenger.
	Peggy was a witch and Bill was her abusive husband.
	He told her one day that he'd let her know how hot hell was and after Peggy killed him, supposedly the well boiled.
	The town was also supposedly the home of backwood deformed albino pineys who would make you part of their kin and never let you leave.
	Sounds awesome.
	I love these legends.
	They speak for themselves.
	Yeah, they're great.
	Happiness is pleasure and happiness is joy.
	Pleasure is short-lived.
	It lasts an hour, lasts a minute.
	It peaks and then goes down.
	It peaks very high.
	But the next time you have to do it twice as much, it's like drugs.
	Joy is a thing that doesn't go as high as pleasure.
	It will last you a lot longer.
	Pleasure is fun, but you can't keep it going forever.
	It's purely self-centered, created by a self-centered motive of greed.
	Joy is compassion.
	It is giving yourself to somebody else.
	You get hung up on pleasure, you're doomed.
	If you pursue joy, you will find everlasting happiness.
	Wow, that was remarkably insightful from George Lucas.
	What Aristotle would have called eudaimonia.
	State of human flourishing.
	Satisfaction.
	That's good.
	Come on, give us the Empire take on that.
	Why he's wrong.
	Oh, that is the Empire.
	George Lucas is secretly a member of the Empire.
	Obviously.
	Look how cool Darth Vader was compared to everyone else in Star Wars.
	That's the measurement.
	If one side was cooler, therefore the author was on their side.
	Yeah.
	Right, leave that there.
	Let's go to the next one.
	To offer my Christian wisdom into the hate debate, I would suggest that hate is used in two ways.
	One is to describe a dislike of a person, and the other is to describe wishing ill upon another person.
	The latter is corrosive, toxic, and poisonous to the soul in any manifestation, and the former, which is something that could potentially be merited, needs to be held in check lest it become the latter.
	Fair.
	Also, just to go back to the Star Wars thing very quickly, what were the Rebels trying to achieve, really?
	They were trying to just satisfy their base desires.
	That's what I think it was.
	I thought they were trying to get back to the Republic.
	Yeah, base desire.
	Electing your leaders.
	I'm not saying my Star Wars takes are necessarily well informed by the canon, but, you know.
	Well, speaking of irrational hatred, I mean, literally just they're wrong.
	Why?
	They stand for everything you stand for, Carl.
	The Empire is not about, you know, taking drugs or satisfying base desires, but look at the Ewok dancing and stuff like that.
	It's haram.
	Definitely, definitely one of those, you know, carnal base desires at the area.
	You've got to dance even longer and further forever.
	But the Empire, the Empire is lasting joy.
	You know, I'm kind of annoyed that in the movies you don't get to see any more Empire worlds.
	Oh yeah, I mean, this is what all the sort of parodies are about.
	Stormtroopers are standing around going, so how are the kids?
	Yeah.
	But I mentioned the...
	What was the game?
	Battlefront 2?
	There is one where you do go to a Stormtrooper run world, and for some reason the Empire's blowing it up, which makes no sense.
	They don't even explain it later on, but...
	It seems to be peaceful and orderly.
	Again, propaganda.
	You see on the planets and stuff, where you can see out the windows and there's massive amounts of commerce and things going on.
	Outside of what's going on in here, there's a huge world of stuff going on.
	People are doing what they want.
	There was a lot of propaganda around, and some big statues of some guys, but that was at the barracks.
	Big statues of guys.
	But it was at the barracks as well, so you don't really get to see enough.
	But just big statues of guys.
	So what?
	We have big statues of guys.
	You know, everyone has big statues of guys.
	Well, it was sort of in the sense of, like, Kim Jong-un worship of this one guy.
	He's not the emperor.
	I can't remember why this was the case, but whatever.
	Well, there's a huge statue of Jesus Christ in Brazil.
	Like, does that mean that this is, like, you know...
	A bunch of Christ cucks.
	Well, yeah, you know.
	Being oppressed by Jesus.
	Exactly, you know.
	Anyway, Star Wars thing's more yours.
	Let's go to the next one.
	So it's called the STF. Well, I'm also Norwegian.
	I'm also working on ships.
	And I'm also a chef.
	And I've been doing it since 2007.
	Been in Scotland, England, Netherlands, Denmark, Germany.
	Worked on 22 different boats.
	Worked on three different rigs.
	I don't know.
	Why don't you be a TF? And I can be the Norwegian boat chef.
	Check to show that there is another based folk.
	So, by the way, I'm fine.
	There is a weird over-representation of Norwegian boat chefs in our audience.
	So that's a bad thing.
	I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying it's strange.
	What percentage of the Norwegian population are chefs on boats?
	That's what I want to know.
	100% when I'm done with them.
	Harking back to Viking ancestry, you know.
	So this is tradition.
	We've been doing this for thousands of years.
	You know, we can't stop now.
	So like most of Norway's population is sailing up and down the coastline on boats.
	These are our long boats.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Anyway, Alex says, Remember we only have to be lucky once was a threat to Margaret Thatcher after she survived the IRA bump at the Brighton Conservative Party Conference.
	Good point, I forgot about that.
	Oh wow, that makes it way worse.
	Yeah, it does.
	But, I mean, remember, we only have to be lucky once thing.
	That's just a perennial truth of the evil against the good.
	The good has to constantly defend its own borders and make sure the evil doesn't get in and destroy everything.
	And so if you're the one saying that, you're the villain.
	You are definitely the villain if you're the one saying that, because you're the one who's come to destroy.
	Anyway, that is a hugely irresponsible and telling statement from Labour supporters.
	They're all terrorist sympathisers.
	Correct.
	When the Labour Party was founded, there were simps for Communist Russia.
	Correct.
	Simping for the CCP is mainly them returning to form.
	Correct.
	Ryan says, I've liked the compilation you've done in the past with the Labour Party conference, with them saying, Comrade.
	For the Tory conference, would you be able to do a compilation of them all saying, Build Back Better?
	Look, I've already done enough of my sins with this stuff.
	Although that would be a good compilation.
	I kind of hate the Build Back Better thing as well, because it's just so...
	John wants to correct the previous comment.
	It's not entirely correct.
	Some of them are also terrorists, not just terrorist sympathisers.
	Yep, that's definitely true.
	But the Build Back Better stuff, I just...
	The thing with the Tories is they bore me in a way that Labour don't.
	Like, Labour kind of bore you with just insanity, but the insanity's interesting.
	Oh, I find it entertaining.
	With the Tories, it's just kind of like...
	Same things.
	Things with the Tories.
	You can tell that none of it's spontaneous.
	That's the problem I have with the Tory stuff.
	It's all very curated and safe.
	Middle of the road.
	Corporate.
	Yeah, corporate.
	Yeah.
	Very corporate.
	It's all very scripted.
	It's all stuff that Tony Blair would sign off on.
	It's all very, you know, I just, it's dull.
	Yeah.
	Most of the stuff I cut, so there are some standards for what I put in, and one of them in my mind, because this is all just done by me, is just that it has to be, or at least it should be, something that is politically different, so something that makes them different to the opposition.
	And loads of Tory stuff and quite a lot of Labour stuff is just, we for good, they for bad.
	And it's just like...
	I mean, a lot of the Tory conference could probably just be, this was Tony Blair's conference as well.
	I don't know, I'm not there.
	I do have a friend who's there, he's done some reporting on the LGB versus the LGBT plus stance, and apparently, yes, one is far more popular than the other, and the other one is seething about it.
	Busy coping and dilating over it.
	There's like the British Friends of Israel and the British Friends of Pakistan stall and they're closer to each other than the LGB and the LGBT+. They move them across the halls from each other.
	Like, Israel and Palestine get along swimmingly compared to you people.
	Okay.
	Jesus.
	Anyway.
	Anyway, we haven't got too much long, so I'll move on.
	Right, Michelle says, I'm curious as to how they intend to deal with violence against women when they can decide what women are.
	Maybe start by ceasing the dehumanization of women by distilling them down to reproductive function.
	Your thoughts?
	Oh, I think that's a great point.
	I think that's a fantastic point.
	It really is like, you know, didn't you make the point the other day, you know, you could have described, like, when they're saying, like, You know, vagina bearers or, you know, individuals who birth.
	It's like, well, this could be applied to a dismembered corpse, right?
	Like, that doesn't imply, like, a living human being.
	Bodies with vaginas.
	Yes.
	You know, whereas, you know, woman is a very thick concept, obviously.
	There's a lot attached to the idea of woman.
	She's alive.
	Yeah.
	One of them is she's alive.
	The other is she's a female.
	The third is, you know, she's got feelings and thoughts and has a social position in the world that's based on what she is as a woman.
	And Traditionally, conservatives have been very aware of this and very sensitive to it.
	Women have a very prominent role in conservative thought because they are important.
	And the Labour Party busy going, well, I mean, women could also be people with penises, right?
	It's like, no.
	There's a lot to being a woman and none of it means having a dick.
	Moving on.
	Oliver says, I've seen loads of posts shared on social media stating that we need to change as a society because of the Everard case.
	As if we're all somehow responsible for this lunatic doing something that he's done.
	I mean, like, if we change society, our current position is don't rape and murder women.
	Don't pose as a police officer.
	Rape and murder a woman and burn her body in a Kemp Forest.
	Why are we changing from that position?
	So what do you want to change it to?
	Exactly.
	I think that's a pretty solid position.
	If we're going to die on any hill, that's a pretty good hill to die on.
	But there's also the...
	I mean, there are some arguments for cultural change, because, I mean, you look at Pakistan, for example, but we're not them.
	Why would I want to?
	But we don't have those cultural aspects either that you could argue, like, oh, well, men in this country don't take this seriously.
	Everyone does.
	Okay, so we're abandoning our don't rape and kill women to a more Pakistani-style honour level, are we?
	That's one of the other options up there which I presume the progressives are looking at.
	LAUGHTER One silver lining, George says, one silver lining about the Sarah Everett tragedy is it'll make people less trusting of the Rainbow Police.
	Fair point.
	Thus questioning their actions a bit more.
	Until then, the gynecentric narrative prevails and people continue to blame all men.
	Solidarity with Wayne Cousins, comrade?
	No, of course not.
	What a horrible, horrible thought.
	God, I can imagine the police actually doing some of that.
	Right.
	You're a man, therefore you're in solidarity with him.
	I want him to have the death penalty.
	You're the cucks who won't kill him.
	Gender comrade, no.
	Bring back the firing squad.
