	Music Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 28th of July 2022.
	I'm joined by Nick.
	Hello.
	And today we're going to be talking about Mexico getting a taste of its own strength.
	White men must suffer forever and also Stonewall might as well be dead.
	That's good news.
	We can end on a white pill for once.
	That's like a great show.
	Although, just to mention first, we have an announcement being that the Gold Tier Zoom call is coming up at the end of this month, of course, so if you're a Gold Tier member, do come and join us.
	As you can see there for the date at the 3.30 UK time, that's the 29th you'll be joining us, and we'll just take questions and have fun as we usually do, so that should be me and Carl there, and if you're not a Gold Tier member, that's one of the perks, in case you aren't aware, is we do these Gold Tier Zoom calls every month, which we just hang out and ask questions and chat, so come and join.
	Anyway, without further ado, we shall get into Mexico getting a taste of their own strength.
	So we all know diversity is our strength, of course, and the United States has been very much a living reality of this.
	The more diverse the United States gets, the stronger it gets.
	I think that's how it's been going.
	It's stronger than ever now, Callum.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	There's nothing else that could be taking place.
	Which Britain has as well.
	Because, as you can see, we did a premium podcast on how Britain has changed here.
	And it's changed quite a bit.
	I mean, just the video evidence alone shows you how it has changed in this premium podcast here, in which we look back at just the video footage of the 50s and the 60s and the 70s, 80s.
	Something happened in the 1990s.
	God knows what.
	And things changed a lot more rapidly.
	Well, there's another place on Earth that's been experiencing mass migration in this regard.
	Mexico City.
	I'm pleased to bring you the news that the Mexicans are very upset.
	Can I just say very quickly at the start, it's amazing how you always force me to talk about immigration every time I'm on it.
	Like, I'm a mainstream figure.
	I'm on a mainstream TV channel.
	I'm Prime Minister material.
	One day, I'll be on the debate stage going, no, I'm not obsessed with immigration.
	Oh, really?
	Explain these 900 videos.
	What's this video?
	See people arrive with guns.
	I'm like, I don't do the titles.
	It was Callum.
	Well, when it stops being a problem, it'll stop forcing us to talk about it.
	I think it's a fair bargain.
	But just to mention, again, this has nothing to do with us.
	We're completely on the side of mass migration in this sense.
	It's a good thing, of course, as we're always told.
	And the Mexicans, who are very upset about this...
	Disgusting.
	Populous.
	Stupid national conservatives they are.
	I can't stand them.
	How dare they be upset about mass migration to Mexico City?
	And as you can see here, some verified checkmark is written in an article.
	Mexico City is being flooded by Americans.
	Can't say flooded, can you?
	Calm it down with a dehumanizing language.
	I know they're Yankees, but...
	Including legions of remote workers.
	God, legions.
	I mean, why don't I just call them a swarm?
	Been drawn down by cheaper rents, they say.
	They're transforming classic neighborhoods.
	Sorry, I didn't mean racist neighborhoods.
	I mean, these old archetypal neighborhoods.
	The housing market and even racial dynamics.
	Oh, crap.
	We're gonna have that conversation, aren't we?
	They're upsetting the racial dynamic of Mexico City, says the Los Angeles Times, who are only concerned in this regard with that thing going on.
	Anywhere else in the world, it's a good thing.
	In Mexico City, it's a bad thing.
	Which, um...
	I don't know how to solve that riddle.
	I always think it's a good thing, of course, as we are forced to.
	So, as we understand.
	But we shall go into the article itself, because this popped up, and Miles Simmons is amazing, as they write in here.
	I love Nuance Bro actually responded to that as well.
	I don't know if you know who Nuance Bro is.
	Very cool guy.
	He just responded, I do wonder how those living in American cities, towns along the southern border feel.
	Somehow I don't think you'd be so kindly feeling about their feelings, which certainly wouldn't.
	But anyway, let's get into the article itself.
	So, Californians and other Americans are flying into Mexico City.
	Some locals want them to go home.
	Spoiler warning, we all do.
	No one likes Californians.
	However, in regards to them coming to Mexico City, I think it is, again, rather racist to say they must go home.
	I'm reminded again of that Yellowstone bit when the Californians came and they had to kill them when they came to Montana.
	What?
	You know, I told you last time that thing with Kevin Costner, Yellowstone, they come to Montana and these bikers and they're like messing up their farmland and acting up.
	And Costner goes, where are you from?
	They go, California.
	He goes, figures.
	Yeah.
	Then they make them dig their own graves.
	Oh, it's good stuff.
	Like you said, no one wants Californians in their neighbourhood.
	I mean, literally.
	They're swarming all over the United States and people there don't like them, so people in Mexico City don't like them either.
	I've won them shock.
	But they're right in here.
	Fernando Bustos, I'm going to butcher every Spanish name, privilege for sinking that armada, was sitting with friends in a cafe here when he realised that, once again, they were outnumbered.
	Being replaced.
	Says Bustos here.
	We're the only brown people, he said.
	Why's that problem?
	A 38-year-old writer and university professor.
	We're the only people speaking Spanish, except the waiters.
	Oh boy, I know the feeling.
	I too have visited London.
	You ever had that experience in London?
	No.
	No?
	Absolutely not.
	Mexico has long been the top foreign travel destination for Americans.
	I don't think it has, I think Canada has, probably.
	You always say, I'm going to move to Canada, then I'm going to move to Mexico.
	It's bountiful beaches and picturesque pueblos, luring tens of millions of US visitors annually.
	But in recent years, a growing number of tourists and remote workers hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Silicon Valley, and points in between.
	Have flooded the nation's capital and left a scent of new wave imperialism.
	Oh, I hate that.
	I like the old wave imperialism.
	I hate the new one.
	Yeah, the older one was much better.
	Everyone knew where they stood, whereas now we just have mass migration, and trust me, it's still your country.
	It's just none of your people live there.
	You know what, most of this is Tim Ferriss' fault.
	It's digital nomads.
	You know, he had the four-hour work week.
	Hey, just go and live on the beach, bro.
	And they've all come to Mexico, and they're like, uh, who are you, people?
	Yeah, Ferris said it was good.
	I mean, you've got it in one.
	Literally, the Mexicans will go on to complain about the digital nomads.
	There you go.
	They put up posters trying to get rid of them.
	But I love that.
	This is new wave imperialism.
	Fantastic.
	Finally, okay, this is acceptable in a left-wing newspaper, so I'm going to say it's acceptable for everyone now, because that's how the overturned window works in the West, which is, yeah, okay.
	In which case, London, new wave imperialism.
	Reading, new wave imperialism.
	Birmingham, I mean, we could go on a lot.
	We continue to get in trouble.
	The influx, which has accelerated since the onset of COVID-19's pandemic and is likely to continue as inflation rises, is transforming some of the city's most treasured neighbourhoods.
	Interesting how that works as well.
	There are neighbourhoods in Mexico City that are treasured because of their heritage, their old mystique and long-running history.
	Whereas any neighbourhood in the West, not treasured, really.
	As replaceable as anything.
	Don't worry about it.
	To be fair, Callum, these are white people and some of them are bringing Pilates.
	It says in the article they're bringing Pilates centres and that is disgusting.
	You have got me there and it's quite gross.
	They say in here, rents are soaring as Americans and other foreigners snap up the houses.
	Don't know how you say this.
	Takiras, corner stores, and fondas, small family-run lunch spots, are being replaced by Pilates Studios co-working spaces and sleek cafes advertising oat milk lattes and avocado toast.
	Which, uh...
	Yeah, I do feel for the Mexicans there.
	That does sound like cancer.
	If you're trying to preserve your own culture, instead you get some Yankees turning up.
	And English, well, it's everywhere.
	Ringing out at supermarkets, natural wine bars, and fitness classes in the park.
	To be fair, it is the best language, but I can see why you're in...
	You're a bit frustrated.
	You're in your country...
	You can't find anyone speaking your language.
	It's kind of annoying.
	Or actually, it's a blessing of living in the West and something that's beautiful about all of our cities.
	I mean, such is the example, I suppose, we'll give here of a story we covered a while back in which they redid the signage in London for a few places.
	Could you read that for me?
	Yep.
	It's Edgeware Road.
	What?
	Lambeth.
	No, it's Whitechapel.
	How did you get that wrong?
	I can't believe it.
	Yeah, for people who are listening, it's Bengali being written here on the tube station for telling you why Whitechapel station is now.
	Fantastic.
	As you say, it's not anything bad.
	It's wonderful that this takes place.
	It does actually say faint in the background, so I should have got it really too old to read that.
	To be honest, it was a trap.
	Yeah, you tricked me.
	But if we go to the next one...
	This whole segment is a trick.
	Just where can I make you fall in?
	The next image here is...
	This is an image that was in the Daily Mail about a street that has changed, which is a good thing.
	Of course, this is in London, which was about the fact that none of the Cockneys live in London anymore, which is great.
	I love it.
	They've all gone out to Essex and stuff.
	Yeah.
	Of their own free will.
	I mean, it's not like they wanted to, you know, live and die where they all were.
	It's not like anyone wants to do that.
	So that's good.
	That's wonderful.
	Back to the article, I suppose, for reasons they complain.
	God knows why.
	At Lardo, a Mediterranean restaurant where on any given night three quarters of the tables are filled with foreigners, a Mexican man in a well-cut suit recently took a seat at the bar, gazed at the English-language menu before him and sighed as he handed it back and said, a menu in Spanish, please.
	And did he say that in English or Spanish?
	It doesn't say.
	Probably in English, right?
	I mean, if the waitresses are all speaking Spanish, he may have said it in Spanish.
	Ah, good point.
	But, I mean, there we have it.
	Again, I love it.
	This is new wave imperialism.
	Happens anywhere else, don't worry about it.
	It's a good thing.
	It's our strength.
	So, Mexico, enjoy the diversity.
	I'm sure you're loving it.
	Recently, expletive-laden posters have been appearing around town.
	Oh, I guess they're not loving it.
	Um, guess what the posters might say?
	Diversity is welcome.
	Um, Welcome, Americans.
	Yeah?
	We enjoy your pilates and digital nomadism.
	Tell us more about Tim Ferriss.
	Thank you, USA. You want my best friend?
	No.
	Quote, New to the city, working remotely, they read in English, you're an effing plague, and the locals effing hate you.
	Leave.
	It's a little bit different than what you might have been expecting, but there you have it.
	As opposed to something put up by the locals.
	That sentiment echoed the hundreds of responses that poured in after a young American posted this seemingly innocuous tweet.
	Do yourself a favour and remote work in Mexico City.
	It's truly magical.
	The responses read, please don't.
	From one of the kinder replies.
	The city is becoming more and more expensive every day, in part because of people like you, and you don't even realise or care about it.
	And that's the kind of replies.
	The other thousands of comments, I'm sure we could assume, are all talking about.
	To be very fair on that, and be very, like, boringly balanced, they are paying absurd rents in these American cities.
	So they are, you know, they're going to go somewhere, aren't they?
	I wonder how that happened.
	Well, yes.
	I mean, it is mental.
	I'm going to give the other side, Calum, as if we're in some sort of debate.
	And they used to spend money.
	Look, for the first four months of this year, they spent $851 million on hotels alone.
	Yeah, that's great.
	These Pilates fans.
	Tourism industry.
	I mean, it's wonderful.
	But it's not about the Pilates or the fact that they spend money.
	It's about the numbers, isn't it?
	I mean, what amount of people turning up is actually acceptable and doesn't replace everything that was there before?
	And again, that's just, do you actually want the original place to even exist?
	Well, it's only ever goes one way, doesn't it?
	Hugo here, 31, a video game designer who grew up in Florida and Nambia, has spent the last several months working remotely from Mexico City, Montreal and Bogota.
	He says he understands why locals are vexed by the growing population of digital nomads.
	There you have it.
	As you said, how they refer to themselves.
	Quote, There's a distinction between people who want to learn about the place they're in and those who just like it because it's cheap, he says.
	I've met a number of people who don't really care that they're in Mexico.
	They just care that it's cheap.
	And this is totally true, and an aspect that is much to be important here.
	I mean, there are people who go to a place because they actually like the place, and that's the best kind of immigrant or person who comes to your country.
	And then there are people like, I'm not going to say a friend, but someone who I went to halls with at university from Saudi Arabia.
	And I asked her, why'd you come?
	You know, what do you like about Britain?
	She went, oh, I don't.
	Oh, why are you here?
	Oh, just to get the degree.
	Hate this place.
	Hate the culture.
	Hate the people.
	Wonderful.
	And to be fair, she learned that from knowing you.
	That was the first time I met her.
	Oh, fair enough.
	I was like, Callum, I've spent some time with you and I hate this place.
	I've realized.
	Oh, well, fair enough.
	It wasn't your fault then.
	But yeah, it's true.
	I mean, I was in Guatemala.
	She was a proper Islamist, so.
	Oh, okay.
	I can see why she didn't love it.
	Yeah, I was in Guatemala.
	Maybe I was one of these people.
	I was visiting Guatemala and I did notice there's an awful lot of frat bros from America.
	They just go down there to just party and mess around.
	You know what I mean?
	And it is a bit insulting.
	They don't really care about it.
	They're just partying somewhere cheap and warm, basically.
	Yeah, and there's something about that, you know, when you go on holiday for a couple weeks and, you know, boys on town.
	And that's one thing.
	But that's not what they're actually describing as well.
	It's not so much about the tourism industry.
	It's about the people permanently moving there for like six months or years because they can work remotely.
	So then they end up making up a huge percentage of the native population at that point.
	Obviously, culturally change the place, which is a good thing.
	Must keep saying.
	They go on to write in here about some of the various differences that have happened, but I'll have to skip over it just for time.
	But they get to the point where they say, But there is friction beneath the surface, as more locals consider what gentrification means for the city's economics, culture, and even race relations.
	It's going to get edgy.
	Over the weekend, a tenant advocacy group hosted a walking tour of places we have lost to gentrification, touristification, and forced displacement.
	By the Mexicans there, who are describing their own terms.
	Which again, can't do in the West, but in Mexico, perfectly fine.
	And the LA Times will give them the time of day.
	Anyone else, not so much.
	Any American cities this might have happened in?
	Any areas that might have been lost?
	Rising rents through the roof because of migration?
	No, don't worry about it.
	They also say on a flyer, the Mexicans, quote, Our homes now house digital nomads.
	I mean, I kind of like how woke on this question the Mexicans are.
	Like, clearly wide awake on the fact that what's going on to them.
	The fact they're being effectively sold out here.
	I mean, the place they love is instead being taken over by, well, literally digital nomads.
	Basically that guy in a pink hat and sort of transparent glasses.
	Yeah.
	I love the culture.
	He's the hate figure in Mexico.
	He's on a post-revwear, like, keep this guy out.
	He's like, bro, I just want a latte.
	That's quite funny.
	You know those World War II posters like, this is a Russian, here's your friend.
	It's just him, this is your enemy.
	Anyway, after his revelation in a cafe, right, Bustos uploaded a video to his popular TikTok account, complaining about the infarcts of foreigners into Mexico City, and the fact that it, quote, stinks of modern colonialism.
	Nearly 2,000 people posted comments in agreement.
	Wonderful.
	His critique is multi-layered and speaks of generations of injustice.
	Yeah.
	Generations of problems because of immigration.
	I wonder what that feels like.
	There's the number of newcomers, indifference as to how their actions are affecting locals, he said, but also the fact that Mexicans cannot migrate to the United States with the same ease.
	Seems unfair.
	I kind of hate that point, though.
	I mean, I get his perspective, which is, you know, they can just come here and abuse it being cheap here, and we can't go to the US and abuse it being expensive there.
	Wait, doesn't make sense.
	I mean, you can break in.
	That's not going to stop you.
	You could move to Guatemala.
	It would be cheaper, but don't.
	I thought there was a big, beautiful wall in the way.
	That's what I was told.
	I think it's not been finished, thanks to Joe Biden.
	But there's also the fact that we have the same problem.
	Don't think just because we're here, there's somewhere we can flee to.
	Like, there is no England if England is destroyed.
	So, again, there's no other Mexico we can flee to.
	Yeah, I know, bro.
	We're on your side, don't get me wrong!
	But he goes on to complain about the fact that the white people turning up are enforcing the city's caste system, which is a weird complaint because the caste system existing there is not...
	Not the foreigner's fault, you would have thought, but whatever.
	Moving on.
	And they then go on to complain about the fact that indigenous Mexicans are more likely to be poor than lighter-skinned Mexicans, and are largely underrepresented in film, television, and advertisements.
	And they're very upset about that.
	Which, um...
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I know.
	We have the same problem.
	Go to the next one here.
	We have the BBC, a notorious far-right outlet.
	Poor white pupils let down and neglected, say MPs.
	Yeah, this was in response to the race report, which just showed it in black and white as well.
	It's not the most popular thing to say, is it?
	But I actually said that just the other night after my football match, because it's North London, so they were saying, yeah, but, you know, blah, blah, blah.
	They were worrying about different ethnic minorities and, you know, being disadvantaged.
	I can't remember how the conversation got to it, but I did say, we were talking about the Tory leadership and politics, and I did end up saying, well, you know, four white kids were also behind in schools and universities, and if you try and give them money, like that guy did try giving endowment to a school, he got so much blowback, he wasn't even allowed to do that.
	So I pointed that out in North London, which you don't often hear.
	No, I mean very brave.
	But it's just black and white.
	Like, this isn't even a debate.
	This isn't a conversation.
	A report's been done.
	Like, we've got the data.
	And if you go to the next one here, this is just the anecdotal evidence as well.
	I mean, I've mentioned this before.
	This is the government's Summit Diversity Internship Program, which has diversity requirements.
	You can guess what they are.
	See them there.
	You must meet the diversity requirements.
	I was surprised how well paid that was.
	Did you notice?
	It was actually decent ways for an internship.
	You could live in Mexico City for months.
	You'd be well off.
	However, we're back to the poor indigenous people of Mexico City who are totally not similar to anything that's going on anywhere else in the world.
	But they write here, Rodwell says, who is black herself, she doesn't feel guilty about her New Age imperialism she's imposing on the Mexicans.
	She says, quote, I kind of feel like, as a person of colour from America, I'm so economically disadvantaged that wherever I go and experience some kind of advantage or equity, I take it, she says.
	John.
	Interesting perspective, isn't it?
	But she's also assuming that everyone is a Yankee, which I hate.
	They see that I'm a black American, and therefore, no.
	Black American, white American, you all just look like Yankees to us.
	Yeah, it's pretty ironic that the black American conservatives talk about Mexicans and other people like that coming in and making it harder for them because they out-compete them for wages and all that.
	This is the reverse of that, isn't it, weirdly?
	Yeah, and I love that this thing was published and no one at the Los Angeles Times was confused about the comparisons that might be made, presumably.
	Anyway, but they continue in here, saying, Izoria said he was sick of feeling like an outsider in his own city.
	That's very bad.
	I don't know why he would think such a thing.
	Around 60-70% of his clients are foreigners, he said.
	Some people order in English and get mad when I don't understand them.
	That's unfair, he said.
	If we go to the US, we're expected to speak English.
	That would be so annoying, wouldn't it, though?
	You're there and you're like, and they're annoyed that you're not speaking English in Mexico.
	The entitlement of that is off the charts, you know what I mean?
	Sometimes I wonder about white people, Callum.
	I hear things like this, I'm like, that is very entitled.
	Oh, of course, I totally agree.
	Like, if you're going to go somewhere, make an effort.
	I mean, at least learn how to say I don't speak Spanish in Spanish.
	Well, don't be angry about it.
	Yeah, I mean, number one.
	If we believe him, you know, which I see no particular reason not to, you know, like...
	They're like, oh, can't you just speak English?
	Where is this?
	Mexico City?
	Not that sign of the guy we hate.
	The other side.
	Yeah.
	It's very true.
	Can I add the other one?
	Did you miss out this woman, this Sarah?
	Sure.
	Are you getting on to her?
	I don't think I am.
	I'm going to end it.
	Oh, okay.
	No, she was a 35-year-old from North Carolina who came to Mexico City last year.
	As soon as she got her second COVID-19 vaccine, she said she fell in love with the romantic yet gritty aesthetic.
	She ended up selling her video production company and relocating here with her shih tzu.
	I mean, I hate this person.
	I hate everything about them.
	I mean, if I'm Mexican, I'm going like, yeah, go away.
	Last sentence, now she's learning Spanish.
	Okay, at least she's doing that.
	Applying for residency and exploring a new path as a life and career coach.
	Get out of our country.
	Anyone would say that to that person.
	We don't need your life coach.
	We don't need your shih tzu.
	We don't need your romantic yet gritty.
	How patronizing is that?
	That's the whole experience.
	Romantic yet gritty?
	It's called poverty?
	And old stuff.
	But then it's also just the numbers as well.
	It wouldn't be too bad.
	She'd be annoying, obviously.
	But when there's one of her, it's fine.
	When there's 10,000...
	Hang on.
	There's 100,000.
	There's nothing left, really, of the old gritty architecture, and it's all been replaced instead.
	I can't say that.
	Although I just wanted to mention here, there's also obviously the Yankees turning up with their own Yankee way of doing things, which changes stuff, but that never happens anywhere else.
	But they'll always bring the Yankee nonsense as well, as you can see here.
	Where can you guess this is?
	Somewhere that's heavily dealing with anti-black racism, presumably.
	It's somewhere like Cambodia or somewhere.
	No, this one's Bosnia.
	Oh, Bosnia.
	Yeah, not Cambodia.
	Very much a place of black Americans.
	So they put up a flag saying Black Lives Matter at the embassy, the American embassy there.
	Fantastic.
	And of course, I suppose we'll just quickly take a look back to, well, where this has infected our country as well.
	I love this image.
	You ever seen this image?
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's an image in London, people listening, which you have the pub there that's all boarded up and abandoned, a row of shops that have all got their shutters down, all graffitis, and then the LGBT rainbow crosswalk there for you to enjoy.
	Sadly, no one will be using because it's a ghost town.
	There's no one there.
	But that's all it ends up coming down to.
	It's just like, right, yeah, the ideology, fantastic.
	I mean, you'll destroy the country, but, you know, thank you, Californians, I suppose.
	And I just wanted to end on just a good point that I saw made by some people online, which, if we go to the next one here, I saw a tweet out from the Taliban, of all people.
	But the point they made was weirdly, you know, succinct to some of the other problems people have around the world.
	As you can see here, I just redubbed it as the academic agent, just being like, foreigners did not build our country, but destroyed it, and now we are building it.
	Yeah, I saw your note on this.
	You said Taliban make good point.
	I thought Callum's jumped the shark a bit there.
	Well, I'm just saying, you know, Californians don't have good ideas about how to run the world, that's for sure.
	I mean, I'm sure they've got more liberal views than the Taliban that we'd agree with on some regards, but then they go too far with, like, we're going to transition two-year-olds, which...
	Yeah.
	Callum's next video.
	The Taliban are good.
	Thumbnail.
	Hear me out.
	With a gun to my head.
	Anyway, but there you have it.
	It's just something I wanted to look at and have a laugh about, which is the fact that, well, all of a sudden, people are starting to notice that when the Americans mass migrate somewhere, it kind of changes the place, and that's kind of bad and imperialistic.
	But when the reverse happens anywhere in the world...
	Whoa, whoa, whoa.
	Calm down.
	Nothing's happening.
	Go to the less edgy segment, I suppose.
	Yes, we're in trouble when this is the less edgy segment.
	So this is a segment about straight white men are still bad.
	Or we could also call it feel guilty forever.
	And this all started when, in my mind, when Douglas Murray put this tweet out.
	It was a sign in Southwark in London that said, Hey, straight white men, pass the power.
	So, that was some art that was commissioned in London.
	If we go up, Murray, and we'll just see what he said about it, one of his typically right Douglas Murray comments, perfectly normal instructions spotted in South London.
	Anyone else spotted backlash coming?
	And this, of course, blew up Twitter.
	Most people saying it was ridiculous and very much on Murray's side.
	Few people having a pop at old Murray there.
	One person called him a pound stretcher, Enoch Powell, which is a, you know...
	Still, at least that guy obviously rates Enoch Powell because he's saying Murray, who's quite smart himself, is a mere pound stretcher version.
	What's a pound stretcher?
	A pound land.
	And I believe that...
	Well, it harks back to when Brand called Farage a pound shop Enoch Powell on question time.
	So that's what they're going for there.
	And I suppose that's because he's talking about the backlash, which we'll get onto.
	But this was the sign, and you think, right, where does this sign come from?
	Why should such a thing appear on the high street telling people they're bad on racial grounds?
	And the Tax Alliance did some digging on it.
	This is Elliot Keck from the Taxpayers Alliance, sorry.
	Great spot from Douglas Murray and equally great spot from the TPA where we found that the organisation behind this ghastly display has received over £3 million in taxpayer funding since 2018.
	And if we go to Guido Forks, we find in a bit more detail that yes indeed, it turns out the Artist Choke Trust, the organisation behind the posters, has received basically £3.1 million.
	If you scroll down it's there, but...
	It's just every single time, isn't it?
	Yeah, we discussed this the other day, didn't we?
	All these organisations getting all this funding.
	I mean, just the deep state just keeps stealing our money and then giving it to leftist organisations.
	Giving it to tell us we're evil while walking down the high street.
	I mean, how do we get this money is all I'm thinking.
	I know.
	Madness.
	So you think, well, who are the Artichoke Trust?
	So I did a little bit of digging myself, and they're this arts organisation, and they make stuff like this giant spider in Liverpool, which we can have a look at now.
	Wait, really?
	Really?
	Is this real?
	This is real.
	It went all around Liverpool.
	I'm not sure if the music was added later.
	I think it was.
	You get the idea, anyway.
	Massive spider went round Liverpool.
	That's the kind of thing the Artichoke Trust do.
	Fun spectacle or terrifying dark art?
	You decide.
	You know what I mean?
	I mean, Elliot Keck was saying that it's...
	On the side, hate white people.
	Yeah, I mean, it's better.
	It's better.
	I mean, you know, it's better than the other one, isn't it?
	It's better than the poster.
	Maybe some people in Liverpool liked it.
	That's the kind of thing they do, just so you know who they are.
	And their slogan is, events that live in the memory forever.
	And to be fair, that spider, if you were a child, that would live in your memory.
	Do you know what else would live in your memory?
	Race hate on the street aimed at you, probably.
	So that's their slogan.
	I don't know if we have the bit on that.
	Oh yeah, there you go.
	This is basically who they are.
	And do we have the other one that says they aim to bring a little bit of magic to people's lives, which was from Dame Judi Dench.
	Surprisingly, getting on board there.
	Is race hatred magic?
	Yeah, exactly.
	It's a form of magic now?
	I think it was a typo.
	They meant racism.
	You want to bring racism to your lives.
	But Dame Judy's on board.
	She's like, get lost 007.
	You're white.
	And of course, they also beg for money to promote all this art.
	All this art.
	Ha!
	I sound like such a philocyte.
	But it's not really art, is it?
	Some of it.
	So there you go.
	That's their funding model.
	They say we're a registered charity and our Arts Council funding represents 10-20% of our annual turnover with no ticket income.
	All of our projects are entirely dependent on additional funding from government and statutory bodies, businesses, trusts, foundations, major and individual donors.
	And it's even better, Callum, you can actually carry on giving them money after you're dead.
	It says, to secure the future of Artichoke, please consider leaving a gift in your will, so you can go peacefully, knowing you'll be promoting race hate long after you're gone.
	So yeah, you might want to look into that column.
	So there you go, that's who they are.
	There is something funny about, you know how they paint Cecil Rhodes or whoever else as an arch-racist, that's all he ever was.
	And there's this caricature of a rightist, where that's all they live for.
	I mean, could you imagine leaving in your will?
	Like, I leave money to a racial hatred group, the Arts Council here.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Give some of it to the giant spider.
	Yeah.
	And the other bit to the poster that says white people are bad.
	Cheers.
	I do kind of wonder, I mean, I know they're not going to do anything because it's against white people, but that must be illegal, surely.
	I mean, literally on the racial hatred launch.
	It's a good question, isn't it?
	It is a good question.
	And what I was surprised at was an MP actually called it out if we have the tweet from Neil O'Brien.
	He says, this was funded by Artichoke Trust, which is funded by Arts Council England, so by taxpayers.
	Then he goes, speaking as someone who recently supported a talented black woman to become MP, chill out, Neil.
	You know what I mean?
	He didn't need the virtue signal.
	We all know you're not racist.
	Don't worry about it.
	But then he goes, I'm sick of paying tax for this divisive racist crap.
	Fair enough.
	Yeah, I know, and I fully agree.
	I mean, you know, it's horrible that you're having your money stolen for you to pay for this.
	But also, just why is there race hatred just accepted on the streets now?
	Seems odd.
	We wouldn't do the reverse, rightfully, but this is fine.
	I'm against it.
	I'm for racial hatred if it's privately funded.
	Right, right.
	If it's art.
	No, it's not hatred.
	It's art.
	It's a fine line.
	But will they actually do anything is a great question.
	And Christian Nemitz was sceptical about this.
	He said, after his party has been in government for 12 years, a conservative politician finds out that the arts and culture sector is dominated by woke commies and that they've been throwing tax money at their enemies the whole time.
	And you won't believe what happens next.
	Brackets nothing.
	So he's saying they're not going to do anything about it, which...
	Probably is the case.
	I mean, I don't know what Neil can do, but someone should certainly be writing to the whatever committee it is about this funding and just being like, yeah, any of this needs to be banned.
	I suppose to be fair, Liz Truss, which we're going to probably go into in the next segment, did actually say, you know, you should all get out of Stonewall to all institutions, although 327 public institutions are still with the Diversity Champions scheme with Stonewall.
	We can get onto that, but yeah.
	But it's just, you know, you can do it.
	It can be done, yeah.
	It can be done.
	It should be done.
	If we scroll down, I thought he made a good point here as well to the other...
	Here we go.
	And before someone intentionally misunderstands this, I'm obviously not saying that arts subsidies should depend on the artist's political persuasion.
	I'm saying that arts and culture should not be subsidized, pay for your own hobbies.
	And this point I thought was really good, but it is telling how conservatives sound like they're the opposition in a country governed by Twitter, BLM, Extinction Rebellion, and Greta...
	And in a sense, that's entirely correct.
	They're in government, but they have zero cultural power, so they develop a version of imposter syndrome.
	And that's it, isn't it?
	Whenever Tories say something, you do sort of have to go, you've been in for 12 years, bro.
	Could you have done something?
	They're selling it as if they're...
	But of course, in a weird sense, they are the opposition to all the soft power of all the cultural institutions all owned by woke people.
	Civil service, universities, schools, police.
	We could go through the whole list.
	It's even more crazy when we're literally talking about government money as well, and they can't even control that.
	Right.
	Right.
	Great point.
	So I thought it'd be fun to compare this art saying straight white men pass the power to this art that we had a couple of years ago.
	Well, it's not really art.
	Well, apparently it's not art.
	This is hate.
	I'm very confused.
	This is racial hatred.
	So it's okay to be white.
	Posters investigated.
	Now these were in Avon and Somerset.
	And someone said, we're a vibrant, multicultural and diverse community.
	There is no space for hate in Avon and Somerset.
	And I've always said that about Avon and Somerset.
	If I want my hate, Callum, I'll go elsewhere.
	Like Brian.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I will not darken the door of Avon and Somerset with my posters saying...
	Now maybe, look, maybe there's some bad people behind this, but it is odd that on the face of it, one of them saying, white men, you are bad.
	One of them just saying, maybe you are fine.
	That's the hatred, the second one.
	And it happened in Basingstoke as well, where it was said to be divisive and had no place in today's world.
	Should we play that video?
	The old world.
	These tactics are divisive and they have no place in today's world.
	And they're tactics that are used to divide deliberately by neo-Nazi groups and white supremacy groups.
	And it started in the US, but we have seen it here in the UK. I mean, used to divide deliberately?
	You could say that about the other poster, couldn't you?
	It's okay to be white.
	That's dividing people.
	Right.
	Right.
	But white men need to hand over the power.
	Yeah, that's not divisive.
	That's just fine.
	I think I remember this story as well.
	She was a Women's Equality Party candidate.
	Right.
	Which, you know, fantastic.
	I mean, you know how deep their tendrils go into politics there.
	But it's just the...
	Who do you expect?
	Who do you expect?
	I mean, it's always some meme who's the one most offended by all of this.
	Yeah, so I thought I'd point out that interesting contrast.
	And it was a tough week, Callum, for straight white men.
	Another tough week, because the day before Douglas Murray posted that tweet, Joyce Carol Oates, the author, posted this interesting tweet, which we can have a look at now.
	A friend who is a literary agent told me that he cannot even get editors to read first novels by young white male writers.
	No matter how good, they're just not interested.
	This is heartbreaking for writers who may, in fact, be brilliant and critical of their own privilege.
	She lost us slightly at the end there, but...
	It's an interesting point.
	Authors aren't even getting read.
	Not really surprising to anyone who's been in the arts.
	But she got attacked for this on Twitter.
	They couldn't handle the truth.
	Those people are like, this doesn't happen.
	You're wrong.
	You're evil.
	I've not met anyone or know anything about it, but it doesn't happen.
	Right.
	And then she defended it, if we look at her next tweet.
	Sorry it's so, but it has been so for some time.
	I'm surprised that others are surprised or disbelieving.
	We hope for exceptions, and of course there are some.
	So that's just Joyce going, yeah, it does happen.
	I'm in the industry.
	Why is everyone shouting at me saying it doesn't?
	Yeah.
	I mean, we also just know the culture at this point.
	It's not just here, of course.
	I mean, you've had to deal with it in comedy.
	I mean, we showed examples of it in the civil service and whatnot.
	That's why my reaction to those posters, and I've said before, I mean, frankly, I look at that as sort of like some kind of civil rights movement, almost.
	I mean, saying to someone, it's okay to be white, after they've literally discriminated against white applicants for jobs or positions or getting their book published.
	I mean, it seems like a pretty reasonable thing, a pretty reasonable response to actually ask for equality.
	Yeah, I don't know who's behind them, but it seems at the very least sort of satirically provocative, you know, kind of like art.
	Maybe it's art.
	Maybe we should fund it.
	Just an idea.
	Could you imagine?
	I mean, that's what the conservatives should do, frankly.
	I mean, screw it.
	If we're going to give out money for, you know, political art, here you go, lads.
	Have some more posters.
	So, you're absolutely right.
	I went through it in comedy.
	I don't talk about it much.
	If you want to check it out, go to my Trigonometry interview after watching many Lotus Eaters videos.
	But I talked about it then.
	I was a little bit shell-shocked at the time from just fresh from being cancelled.
	And I did the interview very early in the morning.
	So you'll notice that I'm slightly sort of speaking a bit slower and tired.
	But...
	Yeah, I went through a thing where someone didn't book me for a gig because I was a straight white man, and I thought it'd be fun to share it with all the sensitive information taken out, not to dox someone.
	But I just said, oh, this is funny.
	I did a funny joke about it, and all hell broke loose and ended up in the Express and the Telegraph on the Jeremy Vine show.
	Famous comedians shouting at me on Twitter.
	The whole comedy industry attacked me for a week.
	Not a pleasant experience, and if you want to know more about it, go to that.
	I won't make it about me.
	But those are three examples.
	No, but it's another great example of just, this takes place in our culture, it's the norm, and to say that it's wrong gives you backlash.
	Yeah, and they're very much the same as Joyce Carol.
	She seemed to get less...
	You know, she was attacked, but she's in a different world.
	It wasn't as...
	The comedy world just is mental, so my example just took off.
	But those are just three things in the arts world, really.
	A piece of so-called art, saying white men are horrible on Southwark High Street.
	In literature, you can't get your book seen.
	And in comedy, you'll be hounded out of the comedy industry for not getting a gig and just saying that it was kind of amusing.
	But...
	Madness.
	So there you go.
	It's not healthy, is it?
	It doesn't seem great to me.
	I thought we believed in the, as I was saying at the time when I got cancelled, I thought we believed in the individual, is the work any good?
	Crazy ideas like this, you know what I mean?
	But especially in things like comedy and literature, it's about the individual voice, isn't it?
	Like, is this person interesting or any good?
	No, it's entirely about are you white, if so, leave.
	Well, so I've found in a very brutal way.
	So I thought we'd return to Murray at the end because he was the one that brought all this up.
	And his backlash comment, really what I think he's saying is people are kind of having enough of this.
	And I've seen loads and loads of comments and tweets about this.
	People just seem to be saying, we've had enough, even that MP, you know, it's a bit much.
	We've had these attacks for years and we're going, can we leave it?
	We didn't really do anything wrong.
	And he talks about it here and this idea of white privilege and why it's just not helpful.
	I'm not willing to allow people to keep talking about white people as being innately privileged.
	They don't know a damn thing about most people.
	You cannot work out somebody's life, their experiences, their privileges, or their sufferings because of their skin color.
	It's a gross generalization.
	It would be against black people.
	It is against white people.
	And I think also we have to call time on this ridiculous notion that there are racial groupings who have something to apologize for for historic reasons.
	You and I are both born and brought up in the United Kingdom.
	We are told now that we have some hereditary issues.
	Responsibility for slavery.
	And, I mean, Americans only have responsibility for slavery.
	You and I have responsibility not only for slavery, but colonialism.
	Well, Chris, neither you nor I did anything in the slave era.
	Neither you nor I did anything in the colonial era.
	Long before our time.
	Yeah, hard to argue with.
	I mean, you shouldn't feel guilty.
	If you're Jacob Rees-Mogg, you shouldn't feel guilty.
	You know, if you went to Eton and you're ultra posh and you quote Latin in interviews, you didn't do anything wrong.
	He's a Catholic.
	He's trying to do the right thing.
	You may not like his politics, but there's no reason to feel guilty.
	And you definitely shouldn't feel guilty if, like most of us, you essentially come from a very humble background, which is most of the country.
	You know, I think about my own family.
	I think of my grandma, who went to a funeral.
	She had to drop out of school at age 14 to look after her four sisters.
	You know, they went on the doll, welfare for Americans, and after that they went on the parish, which was an archaic church doll, where the church just gave you money because you were so poor.
	And that was thought to be shameful, so then you tried to get a job, any job you could.
	I just think of the grinding poverty of that.
	You know, my granddad joined the army at 16.
	She was white.
	Well, exactly.
	I remember thinking just, in rural literature, everyone was white.
	There was no privilege.
	You know, my granddad joined the army at 16, drove a van around.
	My dad told me they'd hit animals on the road and they'd eat them that night.
	I don't know where the line was.
	It's potluck, isn't it?
	You get a pheasant or, sorry, we're eating squirrel tonight.
	But these were poor people.
	My dad had to do homework with a torch under the sheets because they wanted him to work in a factory like everyone else had.
	He wasn't supposed to get an education.
	Most of us come from a long line of poverty, really, because that was most people.
	And then we grew up slightly better now because the economy's got slightly better.
	I still went to a state school, completely normal background, many of us here.
	I like that.
	And then I think of the other half of my family, the slightly better off half, as in better than zero, who come from the Lancashire cotton mills.
	And I just thought it was really interesting because these are my people, this is my mum's half of the family, and Douglas Murray talks in his next clip about what it was like to be a Lancashire cotton mill worker.
	Well, I mean, didn't you say that the life expectancy of a worker in Lancashire, England, was exactly half of that of a slave working at the time?
	The average man in the north of England working in a mill, a mine, they died in their late 30s.
	So, I'm sorry, but yes, this is different from being a slave.
	But it's not so wildly different that we are able to talk about those people in the north of England as benefiting from privilege.
	These were not privileged people.
	These were not privileged people.
	There you go.
	And so these are my people he's talking about.
	And when you hear that, you just think...
	I even got a North London Liberal last night to admit that the Labour need to stop talking about white privilege because it will just never get the North.
	Because you can tell me all you want.
	No, no, it's an academic theory.
	You can explain a theory to me.
	No, it doesn't mean blah, blah, blah.
	We're just going to say get lost because we're not privileged and we're never going to see ourselves like that.
	But also, it's the motive about why they think in these terms and why they attack on those terms.
	It's, again, because of racial hatred.
	I mean, this is something Doug is sort of, I think, alluding to there as well, which is not only shouldn't we accept these words, we shouldn't really be accepting racial hatred against whites as the norm.
	I mean, it is the norm, as listed by the examples we've given, and there are many more out there.
	And that's accepted as politically acceptable.
	I mean, a late party conference itself, one of the home chairs, said he didn't want any more white men speaking because he'd had enough of them.
	Right, okay.
	In which case, we have to change that.
	It shouldn't be the norm.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And...
	It's very strange, isn't it?
	We're in an 87% white country, so the idea that white people...
	There are people in power who are white, but white people aren't in power.
	You know, that poster said, pass the power.
	Well, I've never had any power.
	Most of us don't have any power.
	But you don't have power as a white man either.
	There's no class conscious of all white people being like, we're all in this together, lads.
	Like, no.
	Well, no.
	And of course, the danger of it is that you could create that.
	I mean, if the left wants to push identity politics, what are the options?
	Everyone has to have an identity and be defined by that.
	No, not you lot.
	You're asking for a disaster.
	I think that's partly what he might mean by the backlash.
	I mean, what choices does it leave you with?
	Basically, guilt, if you're a more middle-class or upper-middle-class person, they say, oh, I'm so sorry, what can I do?
	Some of them even pay for people to go to those dinner parties where they're told that they have privilege.
	Have you heard of that?
	Think of ridiculous things like that.
	For everyone else, it's probably just a mixture of rage and despair, really.
	Because you think, that's not me, and it's very, very frustrating.
	So these are not positive emotions.
	Guilt, rage, despair.
	It's not going to work.
	It's not going to work constantly going on about white privilege.
	It is going to be divisive.
	And like Douglas Moore says, it has to stop, basically.
	Building a political movement of racial hatred didn't work.
	No.
	Especially against the majority group, which is another big brain strategy for a political party.
	I know.
	It just has to stop at this point.
	I'll give you a really absurd example to end on, which is about this.
	We've established that a Lancashire cotton mill worker was not privileged, but in this weird leftist world, everyone is.
	Remember Munro Bergdorf, which sounds like a salad at a Hollywood-themed restaurant, but she said that even homeless white people are privileged.
	And that was a couple of years ago, but it was unbelievable.
	She said, you need to recognise that there is such a thing as white privilege and you can be homeless and still have white privilege because you can still have a better chance of getting out of homelessness than a person of colour in the same position.
	Very unfortunate.
	And of course, by that logic, you're cursed forever to be a white person.
	So you're stuck with that forever as well.
	So we're all stuck...
	With who we are.
	And if we're white, we're stuck with being evil forever.
	So yeah, that is the flaw.
	I mean, I hardly need to tell you guys, but that is the flaw with the whole white privilege argument.
	And that Douglas Murray, that thing, that ridiculous piece of so-called art, just brought that all up again.
	So I thought...
	Yeah, there we go.
	Yeah.
	Well, it's totally true as well, and it just gives you what's the response to this.
	And there's either, as you say, become a middle-class, you know, simp for racial politics, or you demand civil rights and we stop this stuff.
	Or, as Douglas says, there's a backlash, and you can decide what kind of backlash that is, which is either, you know, actually solving the issue, or if they want to play just pure race politics, okay, great.
	That's going to go well.
	It's not going to go well.
	And do you know what?
	You almost wonder, don't you, if you were conspiracy-minded, who wants to create all this?
	It could just be stupid people having bad leftist ideas that proliferate.
	Because it would be the perfect thing to divide people and get them all riled up, wouldn't it, to say everyone has to identify as their racial group?
	Oh, but not white people, they're evil.
	I mean, that's what you'd do if you wanted to create maximum chaos.
	I mean, a lot of leftists genuinely want a race war, I believe.
	So I think that's a large part of the world's driving it, but...
	I'm not sure why they want that, but there you go.
	Maybe you're right.
	Maybe you're right.
	There we go.
	Oh, that was a bit of a damn pill.
	Yeah.
	Another black pill segment, but we've got a good one coming up.
	All right.
	Let's actually enjoy ourselves once.
	So let's talk about Stonewall, where they might as well be dead, which is very good news, to say the least.
	Everyone rejoice.
	Take a sip from your beer.
	And we'll just start this off by mentioning the podcast here, the premium podcast me and Carl did on the origins of intersectionality, and why this completely destroyed Stonewall from within, which I'm very pleased about.
	I mean, we've covered previously the, you know, madness that Stonewall's been in.
	I mean, you may remember when their own head said, being a TERF is a Quinn...
	Sorry, it's the equivalent of being a neo-Nazi.
	They said it was the same as having anti-Semitic views, and therefore shouldn't be allowed to have a job if you believe that women exist.
	Sounds very Stonewall.
	Yeah, I mean, it was actual madness.
	They said this on the BBC, and then they immediately lost a lot of face, and that's when Liz Truss stepped in to defund them.
	Didn't I tell you last time that I work on our show with Simon Fanshawe, the co-founder of Stonewall, who left because it was getting too crazy, and he's the most left person I've ever seen.
	And as you pointed out, what does that mean?
	They're even saying in private, must be even worse, that he's hearing.
	Absolutely.
	The mind boggles.
	And, well, you can see some of it play out in the public sphere, because you may remember this story a couple days ago, which I'm going to go over again, because, I mean, this really is sort of the tweet that is the final nail in their coffin, I think, after all the bad press they've been through, just on the public side.
	As you can see, it's no more saying, a research suggests that children as young as two recognize their trans identity.
	Yet many nurseries and schools teach a binary understanding of a pre-assigned gender.
	Why are you doing this?
	What's wrong with you?
	Are you actually sick?
	Two-year-olds can be trans.
	Trust us, we've proved it with tests.
	No one believes you.
	No one believes you in the slightest.
	And this obviously didn't go down well.
	They link a story in here.
	I don't know if you read the article, the Metro article.
	But the story there was of a woman who says that she's a man and was getting mad because she had had a child and she wanted that daughter of hers to be a boy and she wasn't doing it.
	So that's what made her upset because she'd become a man and therefore she wanted the kid to become a man, which tells you that it was the child's idea.
	100%.
	Anyway, got a bit of a backlash for saying a two-year-old should be transed.
	Good.
	Small mercies.
	And they released a statement saying, whoopsie.
	Oopsie poopsie.
	We look terrible.
	We look like a bunch of sickos.
	My favourite bit was, on Friday we put out a tweet that was unclear.
	I'm like, oh, it was clear, bro.
	It was clear.
	And that was the problem.
	That's the way you got the backlash.
	Yep.
	It was the clarity of how you wanted to trans two-year-olds that was the issue.
	And they misjudged it to me.
	I said they went too soon with the open pedo grift.
	I'll say the Overton window is a couple of weeks off that becoming mainstream.
	Do you know what I mean?
	They went a bit early on that one.
	We're not quite there yet, guys.
	We're not quite a trans two-year-old.
	They tested the water.
	Not quite there.
	I think they saw that Posey Parker had been visited by the police for being untoward about pedophiles.
	Oh yeah.
	This is our moment.
	Yes, right while the iron's hot.
	Yeah, it wasn't your moment, thankfully, and never will be, because the fuck...
	Sorry about that.
	It's hard not to swear, because what on earth is wrong with you when you're promoting transitioning two-year-olds?
	But there we have it.
	I mean, it's finally, okay, they're just putting their hands up and saying, yep, yep, we're sick, which, good.
	We'll go to the statement itself, because they tried to defend themselves in here, which is, they say in here, quote, What research were you referring to?
	Asking themselves.
	They respond, The tweet was paraphrasing research mentioned in the article, but studies of trans adults that ask when they first experience gender dysphoria finds that significant numbers have their first memory of this feeling between the ages of two and four.
	Right, so you can have dysphoria between the ages of two and four.
	Or up.
	That's what Stonewall is saying, which is you can have that dysphoria at the age of two.
	Meaning, well, you might as well say that transgenderism can be found in two-year-olds.
	I mean, that's what that logic leads to.
	It doesn't mean you commit the surgery, but it means you're mentally preparing the person, as the parent in that story was.
	They were upset their daughter wasn't a boy, and were trying to get them to be a boy, at the ages I think it was four.
	But there's also a huge gap between what they wrote in the tweet, which is that you can have trans identity at two, versus someone saying, oh, I recall a vague feeling between two and four that I felt like this.
	Whereas in the tweet, they were just saying, you can have a trans identity at two.
	But you can see that they're telling you that that, you know, feeling means that they were trans or two.
	As soon as they've been caught out and that sounds terrible, they go, oh, I mean something else.
	Martin Bailey.
	In which they want to avoid the conversation.
	But they continue.
	Do you think that children as young as two can identify as trans?
	No, they write.
	It was wrong to suggest that children as young as two know they are trans.
	Okay, maybe you have some sense.
	I mean, this contradicts your own statement, but see where it goes.
	What this should have expressed is that many trans people first experience gender dysphoria at a young age.
	But that does not mean that the children know they are trans.
	The children.
	The adults may know they're trans.
	The two-year-old.
	Because the two-year-old's had gender dysphoria.
	Trust us.
	Don't ask the kid, but I know.
	It's not like I've told him to do this.
	But instead, the children can't recognise it, but the parents can, or the adults in the room can, which is exactly what the article was about.
	The parent knew, in quotes, that their kid was a boy and was trying to help them transition to become a boy, mentally.
	Yeah, and that's terrible.
	And somehow the original tweet was so much worse even than that.
	That's the impressive thing.
	To climb down is not that great either.
	No, but that's what I mean by it's again Mort and Bailey trying to hide their position.
	We don't believe the kids know they're trans at that age, but the adults do, so don't worry about it.
	We still transition them.
	Just sick.
	Actual sick in here.
	But they continue, saying that, do you think that children should be taught about trans identities at nursery age?
	What do you think about that?
	Think they should?
	Any other business?
	I'm going no.
	Yeah, I would too.
	But they say, for primary school age children, this might mean, for example, learning that some children have two mummies, some have two daddies.
	It might mean not forcing children to conform to stereotypes, and it might mean challenging bullying that relates to perceived difference.
	Well, that was an obvious dodge.
	They didn't answer the question.
	Do you think you should teach them this?
	Well, we think that you should teach kids about bullying and mummies and daddies.
	They didn't answer it.
	That's all.
	So you do.
	You do think that nursery age kids should be.
	It's all about trans identities.
	Yeah, we know you do.
	So, again, what's the stupid hide?
	Yeah, they say here primary schools in England are encouraged to do so.
	Yeah.
	Encouraged.
	By who?
	Who could possibly be doing such the encouraging?
	They continue saying, do you think that young children should access transition-related healthcare?
	And they write, no.
	Stonewall supports existing NHS medical pathways for trans young people.
	If there are such a thing.
	To access support from the NHS. To be clear, nobody can access surgery on the NHS until they are adults.
	And we support this.
	It's like, yeah.
	I don't buy it.
	Number one, I don't buy that you genuinely believe that they shouldn't have the surgeries below the age of, let's say, 18.
	Whatever it is.
	Which I'm pretty sure it's not.
	It's actually 16, so fantastic.
	But also just the idea that, whoa, whoa, whoa, we're only mentally preparing them to transition.
	We're only making them pre-made for the op.
	So we're not actually doing the op on them, so this is fine.
	Yeah, that last bit did sound suspiciously normal for Stonewall.
	I'm like, no, you don't think this is exactly what I thought.
	No, but also, by their own admission, they're saying, yes, we should, you know, pre-make the children, understanding that they're a boy, not a girl.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Trust us.
	And when they reach a dot, then they can have the surgery.
	Yeah, we're waiting.
	Storm was waiting for you to turn 18 like some creep.
	Literally, like, reverse.
	But they're grooming the kids from that age.
	I mean, by their own words, they think they should be aware of these things.
	And that's the story they gave you.
	I mean, literally, the Metro article is exactly what that was.
	However, this isn't the only bad news.
	I mean, it's pretty bad news.
	Can I just add one thing, because I think we're going to go past it.
	I think they said in that piece, we believe that young children should be able to play, explore, and learn about who they are and the world around them without having adults' ideas imposed upon them.
	But that's mental already, really.
	Sorry, who do you think's imposing ideas on the kids, that they're a boy?
	Well, yeah, exactly.
	The adults are imposing the ideas on them.
	But that's a sort of Rousseau-ian idea anyway, as if they were just sort of crap everywhere, go to bed whenever they want, eat anything.
	No, the parents are going to impose things, but they're supposed to impose wholesome, good things, not twisted, weird things that are going to mess the kid up in later life.
	You're meant to help your child, not, you know, debauch them.
	Yeah.
	It's generally the advice, but Stonewall don't get that, it seems.
	And you might think that would be...
	I mean, that really is, I think, the reason I've laboured on it is because that tweet really is the end of them.
	I mean, even in parliamentary life, I've seen loads of MPs, even Westminster Conservatives, like, yeah, these guys are sick.
	I don't want to be anything to do with them.
	And even Labour types have been moving on from them as well because they don't want to be associated with what looks like noncery, trying to transition two-year-olds.
	The hell's wrong with you?
	Even if just mentally?
	I mean, I have a word for that.
	It's called grooming.
	Here's your wondering.
	However, it's not the only bad news.
	There's some more bad news that came out with them today, which is fantastic.
	As you can see here, so this is Alison Bailey, who was suing Stonewall and her employer, because she believed that women exist.
	She got fired, and then had to sue- Sorry, just the way you described the West is how it is.
	And she won in her employment tribunal, finding, as she says here, that Garden Court Chambers discriminated against me because of my gender-critical belief when it published a statement that I was under investigation and in upholding Stonewall's complaint against me.
	Yeah, basically she's a co-founder of the LGB Alliance.
	Garden Court Chambers decided they didn't like that.
	They're advised by Stonewall.
	They tweeted some stuff about her.
	They got sued.
	And we covered it last night on GB. She won $22,000 off them.
	It's just great to hear.
	Yeah.
	But it's again, the company was advised by Stonewall to do this.
	And that's the key.
	They did it.
	However, they do say in here that the tribunal protected her opinion, of course, but also the Employment Tribunal ordered Garden Court Chambers to pay damages for money, as you said.
	However, she lost her case against Stonewall, but I have succeeded in exposing Stonewall's conduct and the enormous malign influence it wields in the workplace and society more generally.
	So, I mean, that's the funny thing, because Stonewall can't be blamed for the advice they gave.
	But the employer can be blamed for carrying it out.
	Right.
	That's what the court ruled, or at least the Employment Tribunal ruled here, which is hilarious and obviously means that anyone who is taking Stonewall's advice should be absolutely S-ing themselves.
	Yeah, because they can lose a huge amount of money and won't even get blamed on Stonewall, as you said.
	They'll literally walk away with the money you paid them and go, good luck.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Why'd you listen to us?
	We say all sorts of crazy stuff.
	Have you not seen our tweets?
	We transition kids while you're having us around.
	There you have it.
	And the continued fallout from this is hilarious.
	If you go to the next link here, you can see Julie Bindle writing, Remember, any employer that follows Stonewall's law is at risk of breaking the actual law and could end up in an employment tribunal.
	Stonewall is absolutely finished.
	I mean, this is their main source of income, is grifting money from companies saying, we'll put you at the top of the charts for diversity employment.
	Yes, if you pay us to learn how to get to the top of that chart.
	Stephen Nolan, I've said it before, he exposed all of it on the BBC podcast.
	He exposed how they do it, and you should go and listen to that if you haven't.
	If only, as I've said for the bit where he says to the head of Pink News, what is genderqueer?
	And he goes, I mean, I couldn't actually give you a definition.
	Oh, you don't know?
	Pink News, what genderqueer?
	Well, then why are we doing any of this?
	No.
	We covered it as well.
	It is hilarious because it was his name, Benjamin or something, the CEO of Pink News.
	Yeah, Benjamin Cohen, is it?
	Completely breaks down.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	This guy for an hour is just like, you normal?
	Yeah, yeah.
	What's wrong with you?
	But the news from this is, of course, obviously hilarious, because Stonewall, you think, would take the L. No.
	They decided to put out, we are pleased that Stonewall has not been found to have instructed, caused, or induced garden court chambers to discriminate against Alison.
	It's like, right.
	So, you literally threw the company under the bus, they got screwed, and then you're dancing on the grave, being like, I can't believe we got away with this?
	I mean, again, I mean, I just...
	Terrible PR, to say the least, you would have thought.
	However, not some MPs, at least Labour MPs.
	They took this well for some reason.
	I mean, I saw you thought this was a parody account.
	It's not.
	This is Dawn Butler.
	We've covered her many a time.
	Always have to check with Dawn Butler.
	She's got all the emojis.
	Like, is it actually Dawn Butler or a parody Dawn Butler?
	It was real.
	I mean, I still remember the funniest thing from her is when she tried to claim that she was being discriminated against, because she was pulled over by the police.
	Her white husband was driving, but...
	She was pulled over because she was black in the past.
	No, it's just...
	It was mad.
	But she says in here, congratulations and solidarity to Stonewall, who have won their case.
	I didn't.
	I think they've proven that they won't ever defend anyone they advise.
	They've endured relentless abuse, harassment, and misinformation for two years, but still kept going.
	Yeah, and that made me think, like, is that a good thing?
	Like, what other people have endured abuse and kept going, just kept going?
	Like, the T-1000, R. Kelly, Harvey Weinstein?
	She's saying, like, it's a good thing they kept going.
	It's like, no, no, evil keeps going sometimes.
	Not good, is it?
	Yeah, 100%.
	If we go forward, just some other memes I saw people responding to this with.
	Stonewall, we won.
	Everyone.
	What about the employer?
	Stonewall, they were found guilty.
	Everyone.
	What were they guilty of?
	Well, following our advice, of course.
	Good luck.
	I mean, this is the end of their revenue stream, if they're not even going to be held accountable for their own crap advice.
	Well, literally, in this case, illegal advice as well.
	And the fact that they now want to transition two-year-olds.
	Because if you go to the next one here, this is obviously the point people have made.
	I mean, this is just the end of their entire organisation, which, you know, good.
	And it isn't even the beginning of the end, because you may remember, of course, the government started defunding them massively because of Liz Truss, which, glory to her for this aspect.
	If you go to the next story here, please, John.
	We can see that...
	Was it 1.2 million taxpayers' money still going for the Foreign Office?
	Sorry, and as Andrew Dole said in this brilliant monologue the other day, between 2018 and 2021, they received over 3 million pounds in taxpayers' money.
	Yeah, and thankfully, thanks to Liz Truss, she got, what was it, half a million pounds completely cut off from them in a single year, which, good work.
	Still more to do, of course, as you can see there.
	However, if you go to the next one, there's also the Scottish Government paying them loads of money.
	I don't think that's ever going to stop the S&P. So that's it.
	As I said before, there's 327 public bodies still buying into this diversity champion scheme, which is absolutely nonsense.
	House of Lords, SMP, as you just said, Labour, Greens, the Treasury.
	Does that bother you?
	They're quite important, some of those.
	Not so much to green.
	I've just added one more link, John, if you can add it up.
	I've got to add it in.
	Because the most hilarious aspect of this is also the fact that, of course, the writers have distanced themselves from all this.
	These people want to transition kids.
	For your sake.
	We're not engaging with this.
	However, there is one response I've seen from a leftist, which is a parliamentary candidate for the Labour Party, who decided that they would also distance themselves.
	And this is where I think the real impact is as well, that even in left-wing organisations, they're like, oh crap, we need to leave, because this is bad.
	And this is a left-wing parliamentary candidate, as you can see there.
	They've got the racial pride flag in the background of their Twitter bio.
	And one day, they put out that they were on the boards of Stonewall, hashtag he him at the bottom there, I did see this.
	I saw that Stonewall had gone.
	I didn't know he also got rid of he, him.
	I mean, that's interesting, isn't it?
	Yeah.
	Are they going to start ditching the pronouns?
	Maybe.
	How are we going to know who the mental people are?
	I don't think we...
	Well, we'll still be able to see Labour, so that works.
	But there you have it, which is just good news there as well.
	At least the impact is interesting, to say the least.
	However, there is one more piece of good news there, which is the Tories have done a Tory thing, at least.
	If we go back to the telegraph here, you can see that ministers have actually blocked some Stonewall chairman from getting a job in a...
	Watchdog.
	Yeah.
	195,000 pound a year position he was going to get.
	And then they tweeted out stuff about transitioning two-year-olds and even the Westminster Tories went, well, hang on.
	Why would we give this guy money?
	Why would we help him in the slightest?
	They also gave a quote, we just persuaded them to stop paying Stonewall.
	The last thing we need is a chief executive who's a paid-up supporter.
	Yep.
	Very basic.
	That's when you're really in trouble.
	When you're too woke for the Conservative Party, that's when you've really jumped the shark, isn't it?
	The Labour Party have already distanced themselves.
	Even the Conservatives have said that it's too much.
	But I suppose that's all that, and that's good news.
	I thought we'd end on just some Donald Trump, just to enjoy ourselves as well, because in this vein, as you can see, this was a speech that Vice News put out, trying to show him as a bad guy.
	And they say in here he's helping his supporters by going off the trans people.
	I'll let you be the guess of if this makes him look bad or not, I suppose.
	Let's play his jokes.
	You know the guy.
	He was named Female Athlete of the Year.
	Did you know that?
	It's true.
	He was just named female.
	We're not dealing with things that are so easy here, Newt.
	This is a difficult, crazy world.
	You almost say, is the world going crazy?
	Because 99% of the things I'm saying are common sense.
	But she looks over and sees her friends down there.
	Then she looks and this guy is massive.
	He's got a wingspan.
	He's got arms that are 30 feet long.
	And I always say, and she was seriously injured during the meet because he swam so fast that he gave her a major windburn as he went by.
	And she didn't break the record, but he broke the record that day.
	You know what the number was?
	38 seconds.
	So she wanted to break it by an eighth of a second, and he broke it by 38 seconds.
	And her mother and father are screaming, you got it!
	You got it, darling.
	I'm so proud of my girl.
	Well, she couldn't do it.
	And then, this guy comes along.
	He's named Alice.
	And he looks at the weight.
	World record, world record.
	We could have put another couple of hundred pounds on.
	I think he would have lived today.
	I'd be the greatest woman's basketball coach in history.
	Because I don't like LeBron James.
	I like Michael Jordan much better.
	But I'd go up to LeBron James.
	It doesn't matter.
	I say, LeBron, did you ever have any desire to be a woman?
	Because what I'd love you to do is star on my team that I'm building up.
	I will have the greatest team in history.
	They'll never lose.
	Nobody will come within 70 points of this team.
	I love it.
	I love the fact.
	Believe them.
	You've got the audience.
	I mean, it's like a comedy club.
	Yeah, that is high-level stand-up.
	That's like Billy Connolly in his prime.
	That's like a Bill Burbit.
	Yeah.
	I go up to LeBron.
	Hey, you'd be a woman on my team.
	That's like, he's absolutely slaying.
	Yeah, I mean, it's just absolute gold.
	And I love how Vice News put that out to be like, oh my god, look how terrible.
	Like, you wouldn't vote for him, would you?
	Like, hell yeah.
	I'd pay to go see the show.
	They could have at least, like, taken off the laughter or, you know, they could have, like, adopted it a little bit.
	Put some evil music in the background.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	He's like, hang on, you're showing absolutely slain.
	That Alice bit, the timing.
	I'm like, I'm just thinking of going, vote Trump.
	I mean, I was just looking at it thinking...
	Vote Trump.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Vote Trump.
	Let's vote for him.
	I was just thinking DeSantis could be in trouble because...
	It's just not that funny.
	Like, no one's as funny as Trump.
	I mean, he's certainly got something to it, but I just thought...
	I mean, that is where the public conversation is.
	I mean, we have these lunatics in Stonewall.
	I mean, just absolute sickos.
	But I mean, that's where everyone else is.
	Are you just laughing along at the clown world that we live in?
	Yeah.
	I mean, a lot of people get annoyed when I laugh a lot at the stories we cover.
	But I mean, it's because I'm at that level at this point, where it's just like, it's Matt, I don't know what else to do but laugh at this point.
	That's always been Trump's thing, hasn't it?
	Just cutting through that stuff, the absolute nonsense of the excesses of PC or wokeness.
	That's where he's strongest.
	He's been a bit weak on actually getting certain things done, certain walls that aren't as big and beautiful as they should be, but on that kind of stuff, he just slays.
	And he'll win again just on that.
	If nothing else, again, I just love that you've got a voice being like, look how terrible this is.
	We are in two different worlds, if you think that makes them look bad.
	But otherwise, that's that there and going to be video comments.
	Hello, Lotus Eaters.
	Welcome to my truck.
	I'm on the A1 southbound heading towards Boston, the real Boston in Lincolnshire.
	Finishing six days of work, had a good week, been up to Scotland.
	As well as listening to the Lotus Eaters, I've been listening to Thomas Sowell's Intellectuals in Society.
	Have a good one, bye.
	Oh, that's great to hear and great to see.
	I love that.
	I'm encouraged that, because we see all these Americans and we love the Americans, but they're off driving around.
	It's great to see someone in England just driving around.
	Lincolnshire, where my dad's from, shout out to Boston, and he's listening to the Lotus Ears, and he's listening to Thomas Sowell as well, which is so cool.
	It's just very good to know there are people out there, you know what I mean, like that, because you don't always meet them in your normal life.
	We do, but not everyone does.
	It's good to know they're out there.
	I love the special thing about truck drivers as well in the UK. I mean, when you're driving, you've got that time and you shove something on.
	Yeah, yeah.
	I've rarely come across some kind of woke nationalist truck driver.
	I mean, it doesn't happen.
	No, no, because they're too smart.
	They're too smart.
	What was it?
	Who's it that said they haven't gone to university and learned how not to think?
	Someone said it over there.
	I wish I could remember who it was.
	But it might have been an old P.J. O'Rourke video or something.
	But another thing is he mentioned Sowell, which I've just said, but Kemi Badenot mentioned Sowell in an original leadership pitch, which I thought was so interesting.
	That's the most I've seen a kind of almost culture war icon, as he's become, break into the mainstream world of party politics.
	I haven't seen anyone else mention Thomas Sowell in the Conservative Party ever.
	No.
	And it's all of a sudden making an appearance, which is good to see.
	Yeah.
	Go to the next one.
	Welcome to the Kemba.
	Lakemba is notorious for having the highest percentage of Muslims in the whole of Sydney.
	The place is also internationally infamous for banning Miss Sutherland from entering the area because she dared ask questions about Islam.
	Whilst it does have its Islamic shops and centres, there are the odd exceptions.
	There are a couple of Christian schools and churches in the area.
	That music is haram.
	It certainly is haram.
	Although, I love that.
	Have you seen Lauren Southern's video where she went to Australia in the camber?
	I don't know.
	Which one was that?
	So she turned up where he was just showing us.
	I just started asking questions like, you know, what makes you Australian?
	Can you answer that?
	What do you think of this?
	What do you think of that?
	The Australian police turned up and insisted that she be removed because she was causing disturbance to the peace by just sitting there with a camera and asking people.
	She wasn't directing the questions.
	She wasn't even responding to them.
	Just like, what do you think?
	They're giving answers and people are like, yeah, it's cool.
	Did she get banned from Australia?
	She got banned from the UK. I don't know where she's allowed in now.
	So she got put on Vacu, she says, which is essentially a list for terrorists and such.
	She was put on there for...
	It's a joke, obviously, that she's on such a list.
	And then the Australian government sent her a message saying, look, if you give up your entire political career, because she had members of a family there, then you can come and see your family.
	Otherwise, we're never giving you a visa.
	Which is not happening.
	And so she made that tweet about her giving up her entire political career.
	And then it was approved.
	Instantly.
	Wow.
	So, I mean, that's just the links they'll go to.
	Funny enough, Trump, since we're speaking about it, said that the other day.
	He said something like, if I said now that I... He said if I gave it all up now and just said, you know, change his mind, I was wrong or something, they'd accept him straight back in.
	That's all you have to do.
	Show allegiance.
	It would never bother you again.
	That's the wrong thing to do.
	The next one.
	I saw a political compass meme and decided to look up this Leon and found that he was a left-wing extremist incel who refused to help his family and became a recluse and was only famous for assassinating a president.
	I then looked up the president and found he was a Chad right-winger who served on the front line, engaged in meritocracy, loved the gold standard, won by engaging directly with voters following a depression caused directly by left-wing incompetence, and urged everyone else to remain calm after he himself had been shot.
	I love how little politics has changed sometimes.
	Yeah.
	I do wonder, because if you go back 100 years and start talking about, you know, identity politics, the way we do, they're going to be dumbfounded.
	But, I mean, to be able to figure out who's a proper lad and who's not always seems to be true in history.
	You go back to, like, the Romans, you'll find people you can just read about, just be like, yeah, based.
	Yeah, yeah, where Stalin was a sort of woke hipster.
	Yeah.
	There's pictures of him when he's young looking like a total shoreditch hipster.
	Just a bank-robbing asshole.
	So, the next one.
	Huge news guys.
	This is my wife's new 380.
	Now she is not a gun person, but the Uvalde and all the propaganda on the news about shootings in America convinced her she needed something.
	So I got her one with a laser bullet so she can practice safe in the house.
	Good advice.
	God bless the United States.
	Presumably where he is.
	You always look at that and get envious, don't you?
	We can't have that.
	Although you wouldn't pass the safety requirements or the mental health checks.
	Sorry, chose to attack Callum late on.
	Thought that joke would go better, but he just stared at me.
	Do you ever think I'll be nice to just go to the range?
	Yeah, you're not bad.
	You can go shoot shotguns in the UK. You just go down and pay money.
	Next Lotus Eat is me and Callum.
	Lotus Eat is in the field.
	Me and Callum go and shoot guns.
	Yeah, why not?
	Alright, let's do it.
	Next week?
	Who wants to see that?
	Send a message if you want to see that.
	What are you doing later?
	Wow, this is ramped up.
	What are you doing right now?
	Pulls out a gun.
	What's the problem?
	But yeah, I do get jealous every time I see it.
	Otherwise, good work.
	I do wonder though, because I'm a complete moron when it comes to handguns, so excuse the ignorance, but like when you have that pulled back and there's the little barrel, like it doesn't seem, what is it, parallel?
	It's like pointed up for some reason.
	I always wonder what the hell that was.
	I'm sure he can explain in the next video and it's cool, he was giving it to his wife, it's cool that it does give women the option to defend themselves, which is that they don't have here.
	You know, people don't talk about that.
	Some Americans talk about it, like, hey, I want to be able to defend myself, but we never see it like that.
	We say, oh, guns are bad.
	It's like, they're empowering women.
	Yeah, there's a big difference between, like, gun-loving women and gun-hating women.
	It's just like, oh, yeah, the gun-hating women are usually calling themselves feminists and whatnot.
	It's like, yeah, but you're literally disempowering women.
	And one set of them, not going to say which, are hot and one isn't.
	Go to the next one.
	So, in response to the guy who acts of religion and ideology that say, yes, they are...
	This is why rejecting Christianity is a problem.
	Because the Reddit atheists of yesteryear before Reddit even was invented, They may have looked at a science book and then looked at the Bible and quoted the Bible literally and said, ah, debunked.
	We've defeated religion.
	Take that, Christians.
	I never wanted to go to church, Mum and Dad.
	And the religious people now are just there like, well done.
	Aren't you so clever?
	Now, what about the dumb people who need moral lessons?
	Oh, well, they can invent Antifa and Black Hammer and wokeness.
	No problem.
	Sorry, I missed some of that because I was adjusting the audio.
	Same.
	Thank you.
	It sounded interesting as the annoying thing.
	It was a debate about whether or not ideology is basically a replacement for religion for a lot of people, and I would say yes.
	It certainly seems so.
	Well, yeah, it's absolutely used like that now, isn't it?
	But it's a rubbish, false version without any of the, as I said earlier on TV, without any of the melioristic elements of Christianity.
	I was pleased that I just threw out that word.
	Because I was talking about the...
	Melioristic?
	Yeah, meaning...
	I saw Andrew Doyle correcting you.
	Yeah, he corrected me, but yeah, I was still right.
	No, because it was the Edinburgh Council Labour run saying that women, you're not allowed to strip, we're closing the strip clubs.
	All right, you can still dance, but with your clothes on.
	There's a complete moral confusion of leftism because they don't have any framework.
	There's no moral framework.
	There's no cultural heritage.
	They're just like doing stupid things.
	We don't like that because we're middle class feminists, but we still think sex works positive.
	Oh, we're all confused.
	Whereas in Christianity, in my Christian theocracy, obviously it will be no strip clubs, but for much better reasons.
	Yeah, and the women will have to come through a back entrance and not interact with the men.
	It's a simpler time.
	Far more logical consistency.
	Yeah.
	Go to the next one.
	the fig tree from below there's a guy who's like renovating his old house which is just a mess so he's showing us around all the things he's having to fix I believe this was some tree he had to remove, so that was the update on that one.
	This is where I always wish I lived in a house, not a terrible flat in dystopian London.
	I feel you.
	Let's go to the next one.
	You know, if you replace the scientists with insane billionaire technocrats, we are still on track for the Heinleinian Starship Troopers future.
	Although that does include a world war, so that's not going to be fun.
	Also, on these signs, molest doesn't mean you Kevin Spacey the gator.
	It just means bothering or disturbing the gator in any way.
	So don't throw anything at it.
	Don't poke it with a stick.
	Don't grab it by its tail and drag it out of the water.
	Hang on, but that would mean that actually raping the gator would be legal, which I don't think it is.
	I think it is also warning against that, presumably.
	With left distance, you have to warn that, don't you?
	If stonewall around the alligators...
	Don't rape the animals.
	Yeah, yeah, don't try and trans it either.
	No, apparently it happened, because, you know, there's public records of everything that happened in Florida.
	It's just Florida Man.
	Florida Man, the last gator.
	For Florida Man reasons, presumably, but there you have it.
	So what do you get if you take Khal Drogo and mixed him with Lobo from DC? Well, you get Jagatai motherfucking Khan.
	This guy only cared about two things, going fast and eating ass.
	He was a very quiet Primark, ironically.
	While the lion would loudly yell about how good he is, Khan simply stood to the side and knew himself to be better.
	He eventually disappeared into the webway, chasing Eldar on his motorbike, and was presumably riding the space wave to this very day.
	Still the coolest, loyalist Primarch.
	You ever seen that Duke Nukem line about, you know, "Here to kick ass and chew bubblegum?" Yes.
	Someone like redid it so it's, you know, the other way around is just a mess.
	Well, I'll send you afterwards, but anyway.
	I suppose with that we'll go to the written comments on the site.
	So, on Mexicans against immigration, "Ferresist", can't believe they do that.
	General Highping says, "Help, there's all these white people telling us how to make proper tortillas.
	Levels of smug in Mexico are reaching dangerous levels." Baron Von Vorhock says, hopefully because of all this cultural enrichment, Mexico will build a big and beautiful wall with their northern neighbour.
	I mean, that is actually a South Park episode.
	Canada builds a wall to keep out the axe instead.
	And, I mean, if they do it, I'm not opposed to it.
	Would be good.
	Kevin Fox says, so, let me get this straight.
	White employed people are colonising Mexico City and that's bad.
	Unemployable migrants flooding across the southern border and the English Channel?
	That's good.
	Because diversity is good.
	Isn't it odd that diversity is only good if it's happening to the white countries and not happening to non-white countries?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And Kevin, for example, lives in Thailand, so he's got very much first-hand experience of some of the insanity looking from far.
	Captain Charlie the Beagle says, regarding Mexico's new diversity, how long till we see pride flags in classrooms, drag queen story hour, and a surge in transgender kids, all thanks to diversity.
	The Mexicans will love that, I sense.
	God, I mean, that will be freaking hilarious, though.
	Do you know how we have our own problems with people from abroad diddling kids in this country?
	And it's from a cultural perspective.
	The reverse happening in Mexico, I mean, will they be able to call that out?
	Or again, will that become their grooming gang scandal that they're just not allowed to ever mention?
	Oh, Mexico will call it out.
	We know this.
	Don't you think?
	How will they call it out?
	Don't you think the Mexican leader will just make some big statement?
	We hear other countries where they sometimes just say the truth.
	And we always go, oh, their leader just says the truth sometimes.
	It'll be like that.
	Oh god, there should be a headline this morning.
	It's a Nigerian politician.
	He says, we're importing poverty.
	What we need to do is export it.
	We're just going to deport the poor people.
	Israeli Crusader says, the Californians are not selling their best, so we will build a wall and make the United States pay for it.
	Mexico's future problem.
	Which I'd vote for.
	Anonimi says, having Bengali writing in the UK is embarrassing as F. In China, it was hard to find signs in English, as it should be.
	Yeah, completely normal.
	The opposite is weird.
	Baron from Warhawk says, I find this Mexico business hilarious because it's the same nomad practices from Mexico that helped turn California from the Golden State into a socialist hellhole by voting in demographic lunatics and stealing our jobs.
	not so much fun when it happens to your society, is it, amigo?
	No.
	But there's also the aspect of the kind of person in these two camps, which I probably should have made more of a point of.
	But you've got people who are of somewhere and people who are of nowhere.
	And the people who are of nowhere who are just breaking into the United States illegally and just don't care.
	I mean, that is a completely different person to the guy whose family have grown up in Mexico City, trying to buy a new house there so his son can get a house or whatever, and just can't because of all these foreigners who turn up and raise the house prices.
	Yeah.
	You have to end up feeling bad for the somewhere people, no matter where they're from, of course.
	Shake Silver says, Callum, in this segment, sounding like the stock bad guy from the protagonist, we're not so different, you and I, really, though.
	Some civic nationalism would do everyone some good, but for every country, and not just one with a darker complexion.
	Callum Dayton says, Immigration problems have been happening since Tony Blair.
	Now it finally comes to Mexico, and we are getting some much-needed pushback.
	Hungary and Poland started things, and now we've got a third domino starting Mexico City.
	Where's number four going to be?
	I sure hope this momentum keeps building.
	FYI, I don't speak Spanish.
	We sank their armada in the channel, and the feet of Trafalgar, froggies, were a bonus.
	And I'm glad Callum's sounding more chirpy, because last time I felt a bit bad because we blackpilled him so hard.
	I did that unvaccinated segment.
	Went really well, the segment.
	Great numbers.
	Great numbers.
	Tremendous views.
	Callum was a bit blackpilled by it, so keep going, Callum.
	Fight the culture war safely and effectively.
	Mr.
	Dayton here, for anyone who's confused there.
	Yes, not this Callum here.
	To be honest, we covered a story about the fact that all the migrants coming to here are now fleeing to Ireland because, well, Ireland's richer than us.
	Like, twice as rich per capita.
	Literally like $80,000 versus $40,000.
	I do wonder.
	I mean, this is some kind of 10D chess.
	But if we make the UK so bad, like if we carry on this train, hopefully it'll stop because the migration will stop.
	That's what Brexit was.
	We were just trying to be as poor.
	If you listen to the remainder, we're just trying to be really poor.
	Because this happened with Poland really recently, because they had millions of Ukrainians come over, war started.
	Like, two million of them gone back because, you know, it was not in their area.
	Turned out to not be as bad as they thought it might be.
	And then the rest of them have all just left for Germany.
	Why stay in Poland?
	I mean, sure, it's both Slavic, but it's way poorer, so just walk over the border, and that's what they've done.
	And hopefully if we become Poland in that regard, nice and poor, you know, we won't have to deal with this anymore.
	One solution, not the best one, but you know, it's one.
	Andrew Narek says...
	You wouldn't win the Tory leadership race on it.
	I think I might actually.
	Guys, look.
	Because they did the polling most recently.
	The number one issue was immigration still.
	Of Tory members voting.
	You never hear it in any of the debates.
	No.
	They don't want to.
	But could you imagine bringing that up?
	I'd just be like, yeah, so I've got a solution.
	It's not going to be easy.
	But, you know, we're heading there anyway.
	But we will reach crushing poverty by 2030, with me.
	We'll all be living like the 1950s, that's for sure.
	Back on rationing, but, you know, no more rape gang, so, you know, swings and roundabouts.
	However, let's move on to the white guilt forever.
	Oh.
	Okay.
	Tomaj Daribos, hope I'm pronouncing that name somewhat right.
	Hey straight white men, mom said it's my turn on the power.
	Which is a funny variation on that meme.
	Captain Charlie the Beagle, regarding guilty straight white men, it's a wonder these same groups don't put anyone who has much effort into calling out actual hate and bigotry in the UK. More specifically, in Northern Ireland, where the orange men call for the deaths of the Irish people living there every July 12th.
	I don't get into Irish politics, so just for reading that out, there'll probably be a knock on my door.
	Yeah, we don't either.
	If someone says something about Northern Irish politics, it's like, ah, well that's their opinion, and I thought the hell with this.
	Yeah, because we're not allowed as English people.
	I suppose that would mean they'd have to admit that white people can be discriminated and impressed and we can't challenge our narrative.
	Good point.
	Have you seen what's happening with Sinn Féin over there?
	How they became the biggest party, you mean?
	No, they became Wokas.
	They were celebrating that they didn't want to build a society on orange and green anymore, but a multicultural one.
	And they were posting this on Eid to celebrate that, and it's just like, right, so what were all the bombings for?
	I mean, I'm not supportive of the bombings, but what was the point?
	Follow through!
	Where's your consistency?
	All of your own members gave up their lives, their families' lives were ruined, and you were just like, yeah, so we're throwing that all under the bus.
	Not that their troubles meant anything to us.
	Sinn Féin.
	On the plus side, trans kids, Callum.
	Callum dating again, the other Callum.
	As someone in Scotland, can I just claim I'm Celtic and thereby therefore not white?
	I do have the heritage of both my mother and father to claim that.
	I 100% agree.
	Some people do say that.
	Matthew Hammond.
	Are we going to see white male writers pay black women to send their books to publishers?
	Yeah, well, it's a good point.
	There were three guys.
	I forgot to mention this.
	I should have put it in my segment.
	There were three men, did you see this, who wrote as one woman.
	They wrote crime novels and they pretended to be this one woman.
	It was three blokes.
	Eventually they accepted an award as the three men.
	But yeah, they were really successful with it.
	And they had a whole profile for her and everything.
	The idea was like she had this job in the day and then she wrote these graphic, brutal novels at night and it was like a good marketing gimmick.
	And it also helps to get published as a good marketing story and you're a woman.
	It's just so right, though.
	I mean, if I was a writer right now, you could set up a Titini McGrath.
	You know, it's a black lady.
	I mean, just get some stock photos or something, and then just put together a Twitter profile or whatever, and then people would buy it.
	I feel like the publishers would buy it.
	And it happens in comedy in the sense that they'll say, you know, you can be the writer, you just can't be the front guy.
	It's a bit like what Callum was annoyed about the other day with Steve Baker, who was like, he can't run, but he can back Suella.
	And that's just where we are now, guys.
	So, Robert Longshore, do the descendants of slavers in Africa hold some of the blame for the slave trade and why not?
	Nope.
	They don't care.
	That's why.
	You see, can we not talk about that?
	She's from Nigeria, so of course, you know, they were the biggest slavers in the world.
	I think they were the ones who actually captured everyone.
	And she was asked about it.
	She was like, yeah, well, you know, things happen.
	It's almost like a Chad yes in response, just like, yeah, my family didn't slave you all.
	Weaklings.
	Okay.
	She can get away with that.
	Free Will 2112.
	Or is that how you say 2112?
	I sometimes wonder if it's the year.
	Getting this white privilege racist nonsense to the wider public is important because then there will be a backlash against it which the politicians will have to act on.
	Lee Marshall.
	I think we need to stop referring to ourselves, those of us who are, as white.
	It detracts from the fact that the...
	Oh, here we go.
	I don't go into this sort of stuff.
	Oh, just the fact that we're from different ethnic groups.
	So the English, Scotch, Welsh, Irish examples.
	So, I mean, this is where it gets down to, you know, whiteness is only making sense in American context.
	I mean, this is why when they define whiteness as, you know, turning up on time.
	I mean, you look at the Italians and think, yeah, okay, that's a white.
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Well, isn't actually a lefty idea that I've heard that, like, oh, whiteness never really existed.
	I've heard that from, like, really far left people as well.
	They'll try either, depending on which audience they're speaking to, but the main one is obviously that whiteness is a thing and needs to be crushed, and when it gets exported over here, it makes even less sense than it does over there.
	Okay.
	My tiredness is kicking in.
	Sorry, guys.
	If you comment's too long.
	No, no.
	There's two more.
	I'll do mine.
	So this is Grant Gibson.
	One of my grandfathers escaped from East Germany under cover of darkness and came to Canada with $20.
	The other got kicked out of grade school for being retarded.
	We call it dyslexia now.
	The black graduate student at U of M shouted about white privilege.
	Has a father who is a railroad tycoon.
	Make it make sense.
	Yeah, shouting about.
	Sorry, I think I read that wrong.
	But yeah, exactly.
	Exactly.
	It's just not simple.
	I mean, you've got Rishi Sunak now.
	He's doing all right.
	Twice as rich as the Queen.
	So it may not be quite that simple.
	Um...
	Let me have a look at this last one.
	Bleach Demon.
	Cool name.
	As an evil white man myself, I'm sickened by the race obsession of the left.
	But then I remember that the Democrats started the Klan to push eugenics.
	Yep.
	And Margaret sang it.
	And encouraged mostly peaceful BLM protests.
	Could they please be less obvious?
	I want to go on holiday again and not worry about racial riots and violence.
	And that's the end of those ones.
	That's fair comment.
	I think Bleach Demon is right.
	Bleach Demon.
	Nailed it.
	In case you're wondering, I think he got the name, or at least I assume.
	We did a segment just on a bunch of anti-white slurs that BLM types were making.
	And they come up with a big long list.
	And they were allowed to post them all, of course, on Twitter.
	That's fine.
	And Bleach Demon, just a personal favourite.
	on Stonewall.
	Lonshant1690 says, Whatever else has happened with Stonewall, don't you worry because, as the Belfast newsletter reporting this morning, Stormont has managed to find £12,000 for them.
	Why?
	Who knows?
	We are living in the best timeline.
	Yeah, I mean, it is another great reason for just getting rid of these regional parliaments.
	People don't know.
	There's the Welsh one, Scottish one, and the Northern Irish one.
	And the English don't have one, because we have Westminster.
	As in, like, that's the parliament.
	All these other ones were just made up by Tony Blair.
	And these ones are just ran by weird leftists who endlessly just steal money and give it to the other leftists.
	That's mainly how they're able to keep it afloat.
	Robert Longshaw says two-year-olds can be dinosaurs, tigers, and fairy godmothers.
	Sometimes, all at the same time.
	But this isn't reality.
	Yeah.
	I got a chance to sit down and watch What is a Woman yesterday.
	Have you seen that yet?
	I still haven't, actually.
	I can.
	I've got the Daily Wire, but I haven't.
	Go on.
	But it's just the whole thing, to be honest, I kind of found it a bit boring in the sense of, like, it's not Matt's fault, but just when you come to it knowing that this is just crazy and you've got him questioning being like, so what is it?
	I know, you just know, yeah, they're going to be stupid, we're going to win, but nothing's going to happen.
	Well, no, it did, because, I mean, he did actually have a massive cultural impact, and, you know, all glory to him, because those clips, the individual ones of, like, the truth is transphobic from that professor.
	Yeah, I love that one where the guy just gave up, or the trans person just gave up and goes, this was a mistake, and just sort of ran away.
	Yeah.
	I mean, those clips are gold, did have a huge cultural impact, but I must say, you know, watching it, you're just like, I'm more just embarrassed, you know, a sense of embarrassment for living in the West, and this actually being something that had to be made.
	Yeah.
	Dinosaurs, by the way, just to remind me, I listen to Toby Young's podcast with James Dunningvall.
	Toby's sort of my mate.
	We do a podcast together, Weekly Skeptic.
	But he said something about dinosaurs.
	Like, oh, you're probably going to tell me dinosaurs aren't real nicks.
	And James said, oh, of course not.
	Dinosaurs are totally made up.
	Yeah, because he's so down to conspiracies.
	He's like, oh, dinosaurs are totally fake.
	And I was like, it's just so funny.
	You knew he was going to say that.
	Then I start going...
	He's probably right.
	They're probably meant to be discredit Christianity or something.
	So two roles can be dinosaurs, but dinosaurs weren't real.
	Good.
	We need to have James on.
	Be allowed.
	Yeah.
	Baron Warhawk says, The public is starting to think we are nothing but groomers and pedos.
	What do we do?
	I know.
	Let's promote pumping children full of hormones and cutting their D's off.
	Yeah, no one would actually trust them or believe them if they try to interact with adults.
	Oh, but that's interesting.
	You're saying they're not going to have kids.
	Yeah, but also their viewpoint, like, if you have a reasonable viewpoint, you can convince an adult.
	But if you don't, you can't.
	So you have to go after kids as well.
	Right.
	Because they're the only ones who will buy your BS. But you're saying because they love abortion, because they're trans, because they won't have kids because of climate change fears, they're not going to even have a next generation.
	Yeah.
	That's interesting.
	Great point.
	Stuart Beresford says 2023 Stonewall pushed for two-year-olds to be recognised as adults.
	I would not be surprised if they also signed that letter Foucault did.
	Anyway, Grant Gibbon says also on that trans study there's such a gaping hole in the understanding of statistics.
	We looked at trans people who recalled feeling like the opposite gender at two to four.
	We did not ask how many people overall felt girly or boyish in contrast to their gender identity.
	Kids do not have a cemented identity.
	My son paints his nails and wears a princess dress.
	It's because it's what his sister does.
	He's not a girl.
	Although, to be honest, I didn't even bother with this study because...
	Uber?
	Come on.
	I mean, it just isn't science.
	If anyone comes to you and says that people are trans at two years old, then you might as well tell me that you can walk in space with that spacesuit.
	Trust it.
	Trust me.
	I've got a study that proves it.
	Yeah, though I'd also shut that down if I was Grant, but it's his choice.
	But it's just...
	I didn't even bother reading it, because who cares?
	It's obviously just hokum.
	Like the grievance studies departments always are.
	Robert Longshaw says my illest memory of me was at four years old the police kicking in my front door to kick my dad police records show my house was under surveillance for days beforehand and they waited until me, my younger sister, came home from being pulled up at school nursery by my mum at around 3.30pm whilst my dad was at home all on his own all day that is the sort of thing you remember from being a kid you could call it childhood trauma I call it F the police
	Kids never remember that you want your willy cut off because you thought you were really a girl.
	That is simply a created memory.
	Yeah, I mean, again, I didn't go into the specific examples they gave because it's obviously hokum, but if you do have a memory of being a girl at that age, I do wonder why.
	It's a great point.
	Just sound like trauma.
	But otherwise, we're out of time, so one more from us, LoseEars.com, of course.
	Where would they find you next?
	At NickDixonComic on Twitter, just at NickDixonGetter and TruthSocial.
	Also, if I'm allowed to do a cross-plug to another podcast thing, check out The Weekly Skeptic, which is my new podcast with Toby Young from The Daily Skeptic.
	We've done one episode, we've got another new one coming out soon with a friend of this podcast on it that I'm interviewing as well.
	Sounds good.
	Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
	Thank you and goodbye.
