Time Text
Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 12th of October 2022.
I'm joined by Carl.
Hello!
And today we're going to be talking about Sam Hyde destroying Hassan Piker.
Hashtag draft our daughters making a comeback, which I didn't expect.
And also the floodgates are open and nobody cares.
In regards to immigration.
But otherwise, special event, of course, being it's the 500th episode.
Hey!
We're doing a bit of a campaign for this.
So as you can see here on the website, there's a page here that I'll see the second birthday celebration.
I think this video is going up at 1pm, if that's correct.
That should be up now.
So there is some deets in this.
So from today and up to the run of our second birthday, we are releasing one piece of premium content for free each day.
They will be freemium for one week.
Viewers are invited to submit their favourite Lotus Eaters moments.
Best moments will be made into a special birthday celebration montage to be played on the 2nd birthday, being the 9th of November.
There will be a pinned post on each social media platform to submit a highlight.
Simply reply to the post with a link to the video and the timestamp so our editors will find the clips.
And 10 of the favourite highlights will win a Lotus Eaters t-shirt signed by the whole office.
So, there you are.
If you want to join in, come and join in.
Otherwise, we shall begin with Sam Hyde creeping in the dark.
Sam Piker has no swag.
I think this has been fully established.
And it is this total lack of swag that is allowing merely the name of Sam Hyde to haunt his nightmares.
Wherever he goes, the question is on everyone's lips.
Will you fight Sam Hyde?
And he pisses himself in fear.
Although he's having literal nightmares at this point about it.
I think he might actually be having literal nightmares about it, actually.
I'm not even over-egging this, folks.
This is actually what's happening to Hasan Piker.
And it's genuinely amusing because Hasan Piker talks so tough when he's on the internet.
And in fact, right, so as you said a minute ago, we're coming up to our second birthday, and so we're going to be releasing a piece of premium content for free for a week from the website.
So you can go click the link in the description and watch something that we otherwise had hidden behind the paywall.
And I chose this one because I think this is actually pertinent.
This is my exploration, deep dive into The Matrix Resurrections, because now everyone was like, oh, this is terrible, this is rubbish.
And I was like, actually, I mean, yes, obviously, on the surface, it's a crap movie.
But, look at what we can learn underneath it, because what's actually happening is, I think it's Lana Wachowski, is actually showing us what her life is like behind the scenes, and it's actually awful in every way, shape or form, and it explains to us why Hollywood can't produce anything good anymore.
And The Matrix is a kind of adaptation of, I think it's Baudrillard's view of what he calls hyper-reality, which is a kind of fictional reality that's overlaid on real life.
And actually, there's a kind of parallel here, I think, between Sam Hyde and Hassan Paik, because of course...
Hasan on Twitch, he's got, you know, 50,000 people watching.
He's in his $3 million mansion.
He's like, yeah, I'm the cool socialist online.
And as soon as Sam Haider's like, no, in real life, oh, actually, that all disappears.
And Hasan Piker is reduced to a quivering wreck who can't leave the house for fear of this Nazi turning up and attacking him.
And it's totally got him shook, I would say.
But anyway, look, so if you're not aware of what we're talking about, back on August 22nd, Sam Hyde had an influencer match against a chap called Thompson, and he won.
And afterwards, this was the clip that went viral.
Oh, you know it, lad.
You know that Hassan Piker!
I'm coming to kill you in Los Angeles at your house!
Or in the ring?
No!
In real life, I'm going to stalk him and become obsessed with him and wear his makeup and his dresses and use his skin as a coat like the ancient Irish did.
Well, that's your winner, Sam Hay!
I think that's the greatest piece of comedy this decade so far.
Yeah, I'd agree.
Every time I see it, I just crack up.
I can't help it.
Sam Hyde is an amazing comedian, in my opinion.
But this, of course, is not the first time he's called out Hassan, as we showed in the first video we did about this.
He explained that he wanted to fight Hassan because, of course, Hassan has no swag.
And this is what he was referring to.
hassan's got this uh very polished veneer when he's putting up his instagram modeling photos and when he's doing i know it's unbelievable look at me i'm wearing a dress aren't i edgy yeah exactly but uh i'll let sam explain actually he does a great job but hassan you're gonna fight me You are going to fight me one way or another.
I don't care if I have to break into that nice house of yours.
You're gonna fight me, son.
This f***ing guy.
This donair meat-shaven, cologne-wearing...
Where does he get his jewelry from?
Claire's, etc.?
It's not that it's challenging gender norms.
It's that you have no swag.
That's it.
That's exactly it.
You look like a ponce, Hasan, is what he's saying.
And he also...
Now, we didn't cover this in the last time we covered this, but he also made a point in this that his name was like the necromancer, Sauron from Lord of the Rings, right?
It'd be wherever Hasan goes, it's going to be echoing in his ears.
It's always going to be omnipresent in the back of his mind.
Sam, I... What's the prediction?
My name is like the f***ing necromancer to these people, okay?
Think about it from his perspective.
If you were a liberal podcaster dude, if you were the one who knocked out Sam Hyde, it doesn't matter that I don't have a million followers.
That's like legendary status right there.
If you got me, that's like punching out 50 Richard Spencers.
For real.
Think about that for a second.
I know I don't have as many followers as him.
Duh, dummy.
I get it, okay?
Limited appeal.
Niche market.
Hey, he's got more charisma.
He's a handsome guy.
Etc.
However, I am the boogeyman to him in his mind.
There's no f***ing way he doesn't know who I am.
There's no f***ing way he doesn't think, oh, I wish I could shut him up.
That was in December 2021.
You know what the best part is as well?
It's him having a smaller channel, but being able to completely dominate Hasan Piker's entire future.
His entire public persona.
You spend all this time, I mean lazily, but he did, you know, trying to build up his socialist audience, and now it is all meaningless.
The only thing anyone thinks about when they think Hasan Piker is.
Yeah, Sam Hyde guy.
Yeah, and you could see, and we'll play Hasan being absolutely shook by this.
Again, he's nice and safe in his LA mansion, he's streaming on Twitch, and he looks like he's about to crumble.
Let's watch.
Be like, I'm gonna kill Hassan Piker, okay?
I'm gonna come to his house and murder him.
And you go, oh, this is some information that he should probably watch.
Like, he should watch and address this, okay?
then honestly just don't post and get out of the community it should be normal dude anything to do with his fan base i don't want anything to do with that mother he is weird as dude no free clout don't care you know have fun he legit threatened you with death i mean okay get in line mother there's plenty of people who want to kill me you know what i mean you sound scared i'm more grossed out than anything yeah right I can see the trembling.
Anyway, so Hasan recently went to TwitchCon.
Now, I didn't know Twitch had a con, and I actually looked into this, and it's embarrassing.
I'm surprised they don't have a ball pit there, right, is the way I look at it.
But he recently went to TwitchCon, and some fans of Hassan's found him.
See the first one, John.
No, no, not the video, the next link.
Sorry, you can see the...
So, you know, guys, I saw Hassan!
Eee!
This is the kind of thing that happens at TwitchCon.
Okay.
This is the place.
I really don't get Twitch as a platform, so this is doubly cringe to me.
Yes.
But I just love the sort of female soy face there.
Yeah.
Guys, I saw Hasan.
Wow.
Did you find him?
Well, that's what a lot of Sam Hyde fans are asking, because they were also at TwitchCon, apparently.
And people started posting on Twitter like, hang on a second, why is Hasan having all these meltdowns at TwitchCon?
And if you go to the next one, John, you can see just people like, hmm, people keep asking about Sam Hyde.
Hmm.
This is looming over him like a dark shadow.
This giant...
I can't even say it with a straight face.
This giant, dark Irish shadow.
But no matter what Hassan Piker does for the rest of his life, unless he fights Sam Hyde, all he'll be known as is, when are you going to fight Sam Hyde?
We'll get to how he could defuse this in a minute, because he actually doesn't have to fight Sam Hyde.
The only honorable way out.
I agree.
It's the honorable way out.
But he could also change his framing on this, which would...
Okay.
But anyway, so random people just started coming up to Hassan and be like, So Hassan, you're going to fight somebody?
Watch it.
Are you gonna accept Sam Hyde's fight offer?
Dude, why are you fucking talking to me about some dumbass fucking weirdo nonsense?
What's wrong with you?
What's wrong?
Explain yourself.
What do you mean?
You think it's fucking funny, dude?
He had some fucking weird...
You got some weird f***ing deadbeat loser comedian who has completely f***ing lost all of its importance on the world by f***ing himself over, by giving Andrew Anglin $5,000 in his f***ing Nazi defense fund.
And you're going to come to me and be like, it's so funny.
Yeah, it's not funny, is it?
Do you like that?
I don't want to be around these losers and you should probably conduct yourself a little bit better.
Can you imagine being lectured to by Hasan Piker about your conduct?
You should conduct yourself better, sir!
I literally just asked when you're going to fight a guy.
I know.
Look at the meltdown, though.
It's just like, oh my god.
You couldn't even just laugh at it and be like, yeah, I know, I know.
Exactly.
Again, Hassan could get out of this quite easily going, dude, are you going to fight him?
You know, the dude's six foot five and he appears to be a lunatic.
Act like a human being?
Yeah, exactly.
And not some prissy princess?
Like, how dare you ask me this question?
Exactly.
Peasant.
How dare you?
Don't you know who I am?
I am Hasan Piker.
That's the attitude.
I have a booth at TwitchCon.
Yeah, but that was a regular-sized dude, right?
We can get, like, a fairly short sort of Asian dude here who also mentions it.
Well, Hasan's a tough guy now.
Watch this.
And I have another question.
I think Sam Hyde, he called you out on, like, a box.
Are you interested in the boxing scene?
I don't know why you guys are so into this shit.
He's a Nazi.
What's happening right now?
It's so wack, bro.
I don't understand why all you motherfuckers have to run around with this shit.
What's going on?
What's going on?
Nothing.
Get the fuck out of my face, bro.
You fucking asshole.
What do you mean damn, bro?
What the fuck do you mean damn?
What do you mean damn?
What the fuck do you mean Dan?
Why do you do this?
You're not asking for it.
Alright, bro.
Yo, chill, bro.
Get the fuck out of here.
Pussy.
Oh.
That was like fuck that guy.
So he's a pussy.
See.
you You're going to call that little Asian guy who's half your size a pussy?
But you're like 6'3", you're the same sort of weight category as Sam Hyde.
You're not going to set someone your own size, are you?
He really is such a little princess.
Yeah, I know.
I'm sorry, but it is so easy just to be like, yeah, I know the joke, it's funny.
Yeah, exactly.
Or play something, you know, try and play it off or whatever.
But no, he is just...
That has defended me, sir!
Yeah, and you could argue, oh, there's a lot of pressure on him because this meme has blown up or something.
There isn't, really.
Like, you could very easily deal with this, and instead he decides to be an absolute child.
I just think, I'm the centre of the world.
And you know why?
Because he's got no swag.
Got no swag.
Sam Hyde was right about him.
And him dead to right, he's got no swag.
And so he just loses his absolute head when anyone even begins to start talking about it.
And of course, this has spawned many a meme.
We'll just play the I Thought That Was The Best One.
you can run but you can't hide but it's There's something there, though, where you can see even just in that me, like, the clip of Sam Hyde as someone who doesn't care, but he's just having a good time, whereas clearly Hasan Piker is endlessly looking for your approval or something.
Yes.
It's childish, man.
Exactly.
That's exactly what it's about.
Hasan Piker is, everyone must think well of me at all times.
It's like, Hasan, no one thinks well of you at all.
Because you're Sam Piker.
Don't I have the right opinions on the politics and everything?
Sam Hyde just tells me, he goes, why not?
Six guerrillion, am I right?
He doesn't believe any of it, but it's just like, yeah, whatever.
Yeah, I get the feeling Sam Hyde's just an edgy boy on the internet, Hassan.
And the thing is, right, I bet that if Hassan agreed to meet with him or agreed to do the fight or something like that, I doubt it would even go down as Hassan's word.
Even if you got a couple of punches and then called it, okay, fine, you went up, you took a couple of slugs, well done, you're a man about it.
But instead, you're an absolute bitch about it.
And speaking of bitches, this is, again, just what I love about Hasan Piker is what Sam Hyde has done to him is just shattered the illusion completely.
Because Hasan, he often tough talks when he's on his Twitch channel.
This is what he said after the death of Queen Elizabeth, in fact.
And I found this very gross.
Let's watch.
It's the pity part of my life.
Oh my god, he's crying!
What a f***!
Hasan, you're moments away from tears, from just a person saying, sorry, you can accept the Sam Hyde fight.
You absolute coward.
You absolute woman about this.
It's disgusting.
And so Sam Hyde is right to continually destroy you by merely calling you out, and people are right to ask.
So, Hasan, when are you going to fight Sam Hyde?
Did you see the Alpha Bros stuff I sent you as well?
I did, but I didn't want to include it just because it was kind of like...
I don't know.
It didn't seem relevant.
Sure, it's a long time ago, but it's just like he advertised himself previously.
What was it?
The bro-fessor?
Yeah, okay, you know, everyone's first videos are bad.
No swag.
He played this role in there where he would talk about how he was an alpha male and would do this and that.
I didn't see that.
And now you're a pretty little princess who just runs away from even someone saying a joke.
Wearing makeup and fleeing constantly from Sam Hyde.
I love this so much.
Yeah, Saad, you're a joke, literally.
And Sam Hyde will continue to destroy you by merely having the name of the necromancer as he predicted.
I'll leave that.
We'll move on to draft our daughters.
So, ladies, especially American ladies, I know you've all wanted to serve your country on the front lines and die for the glory of a minoritarian empire, I suppose.
This is what feminism always promised at base, right?
Yeah, and this was a meme for a while that came back.
It came back in the form of Draft Our Daughters as a right-wing meme.
And for things that are making a comeback, you might want to also check out on Lotuses.com, someone who tried, Tony Blair here, of course, someone who would support Draft Our Daughters, I imagine, these days.
How could he refuse?
Tried to tell everyone, hey, guys, that Blairism thing, big mistake.
You can go and watch the premium hangout together where we went through all of that.
That's a great thumbnail, by the way.
Whoever made that.
But if we go to the next link, we can see the origins of Draft Our Daughters, in case folks at home don't know.
This was this legendary S-poster, who decided to come out and tweet this.
I think his account's probably nuked at this point.
This was a long time ago.
It's him saying, It's every woman's duty to sign up for the draft.
Defeat Russia in war!
We can do it!
Hashtag why she runs.
Hashtag I'm with her.
This was back when, of course, Hillary Clinton's campaign was going on.
And Russia was just another word that has changed now, of course.
But there is many other S-poster who turned up to join the fight.
Yep.
This one, enlist for her, fight for her.
I'm ready to fight for her as being Hillary Clinton, of course.
If we go forward, there's also take aim against Russian inequality.
Join up now, ladies.
Stand with her.
And...
This is genius, actually, I've got to say.
They look legit.
And this is, again, ultimately what they're asking for when they ask for affirmative action and women to be in the military.
This is my favourite form of memes when it comes to politics, which is where you remake the enemy's propaganda, in which a style and vision that is professional enough that they would post it, but also with a message that's really stupid, but they would also post it.
That they are already committed to.
Yes, there's no way they can back down from it.
Because if we go to the next one as well, I think we have more of this, which you have someone else here just saying they're ready to go for war.
For her, are you?
Hashtag draft our daughters, of course, being for gender equality.
Yeah.
And then someone redid it, so it was Hillary Clinton.
Of course, from her account, the verified checkmark.
You know, we must do it.
Go get them, girls.
H at the end.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And that's genius.
Yeah, fantastic.
And this was back during the Trump-Hillary campaign.
And then Soy Jack fact-checkers had to rush to her defense.
Be like, no, she would never do that.
Stop making fun of her.
Hillary Clinton's not a feminist.
Yeah.
There's also a lovely comment in here, just to quote, I'm sure my wife would be proud to stand up to Russia's homophobic and Christian ways.
Yeah, well...
Where's the lie?
Unfortunately, ladies, the evil misogynist Donald Trump came to power and Draft Our Daughters was issued a crushing blow and was taken away from you.
But thankfully, some Republicans decided to bring it back for a joke.
A few years later, as you can see here, two Republican congressmen introduced Bill to Draft Our Daughters.
I guess they found the 4chan post and were like, hmm, good idea.
Let's do that.
What I love about this is upping the ante.
Just being like, okay, feminists, why is this wrong?
Tell us why this was wrong.
Let's actually put it in law.
Women in the draft.
Men are in the draft in order to obtain the vote in the United States.
Women have the vote without it.
That's not gender equality.
Oh dear, what's your argument?
Boom.
Done.
Yeah.
Both opponents of the opening bill were the people who proposed the bill.
In question, as well.
They voted against it and said they would vote against it.
There's Hunter, a major in the Marine Reserves, and a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, and Ziki, a retired Navy SEAL commander who served in Iraq, are the two people who proposed it.
There is actually an Onion meme from a while ago, where some member of the SEAL team or whatever is like, there's a reason you can't have women in the Special Forces, because as soon as you put 150 pounds on their back, they crumble like a crouton.
But, no, it's real as well, which is these two lads.
But, like, they're going to vote against their own bill.
It's like, yeah...
Yeah, but they just come out and put it on the table.
It's like, yeah, okay, let's have the vote.
Let's dare you to vote for it.
And they both said they would stand against it.
However, this was in response as well to the Defence Secretary ordering that all billets in the military, including infantry and armour, will be open to women who qualify.
So these two guys were like, are you serious?
Right, okay, let's open up all combat roles, including the draft, to women.
No, you won't do that, because you recognise that men and women are different.
Well, not everyone did, because the left-wing response to this at the time was, well, yes, let's do it.
Says, I know, Chris Marvin here.
So it's not a woman who's leaping to this.
No.
He was arguing that his daughters would be proud to serve.
I don't think he asked them.
He doesn't quote them at any point.
I mean, he does just make the point that liberal ideology demands that women be shuffled to the front line.
Yeah, saying making women eligible for the draft is overdue for gender equality and potentially transformative for the nation.
It certainly would be transformative, yeah.
Do you remember that right-wing propaganda from earlier?
That's like, oh my god, imagine if the left promoted this.
Yeah, it took a couple of years, but then they did.
They're happy to sign on for it.
And obviously, by the time this actually got to being voted on, the politicians were done peacocking, so they voted it down.
They didn't pass it.
I can't believe they'd be such anti-feminists like this.
Very disappointing, ladies in the audience.
I'm sad to say that Draft Our Daughters was once again killed.
Women around the nation mourned this non-passing of the bill.
How can that be justified?
I don't know.
They went back to their normal lives, I think.
I don't think women signed up en masse to join the army.
What's that?
Oh no, I'm needed in the kitchen.
I've got a cake to bake.
My kids are going to be home from school.
Bye!
I work at LinkedIn.
What do I do?
I mean, you can look at my TikTok.
I'm not sure what I do.
I'm not sure what anyone else does either.
We all just kind of, you know, get coffees in the morning and then drink tea as well.
Look at my coconut caramel latte.
It's free.
But that was all the case.
Until now, ladies, don't worry.
You're finally being brought back into the conversation.
Because you have here the Selective Service account from the US government.
Again, I don't know why the hell there are so many goddamn government accounts on Twitter.com with Verify Checkmots.
Just stop.
Stop it.
I don't know why you need to do this.
But instead, they decided to put out a tweet, which was rather funny and has blown up.
Parents, if your son is an only son and the last male in your family to carry the family name, he is still required to register with the SS. Learn more about who needs to register at our website with a picture of a father and his son.
And, well, a lot of leftists.
How do you identify what a son is?
Yeah, that was the question, of course.
Also barbaric notions here of the fact that your son is valuable.
Oh no, God, we can't imply that.
Lots of other complaining on that front, that family means something, that there is special value to men, etc.
However, I will focus on the other, more pressing complaint, which is, what do you mean you're going to draft some of our daughters?
Which daughters?
Not the real ones.
If we go to the government website itself, they have a section on here called Transgender People.
Oh, really?
Because of course they do.
US citizens or immigrants who are born male and change their gender to female...
Are still required to register.
Oh dear.
Under Biden's administration.
I thought he was a progressive.
Individuals who are born female and change their gender to male are not required.
We don't know quality.
Never heard of it.
Do you know what you're talking about?
But I'm a man.
Draft me.
Trans what?
No.
No, I'd really rather not.
What I love about this so much is just the complete facade of like, oh, look at you.
What's a woman?
What's a man?
Oh, they've transitioned.
No, that's all gone.
No, just males and females.
Every day of the year, every politician within the left-wing movements has to peacock about how they know what a woman is now, and it's whatever I say it is.
There are no defining lines.
And when it comes to reality, when it comes to a government policy such as the draft...
You have all the trans men taking their short hair and trying to desperately turn it into pigtails again.
Yeah, and all the trans women just getting deadnamed repeatedly.
Shaving their heads being like, Oi Mike, it's time for the draft.
Oh no, I'm not Mike anymore!
Eh, well, you are.
My name's Matilda.
No, it's not.
It's a simple message, which is men serve, women don't.
And, well, draft our daughters.
Go get them, gals.
Because, of course, they are real women, as we're always told.
In which case, draft our daughters has finally won.
Not all of our daughters.
Just the trans daughters.
But then, that's enough.
We've made progress.
That is an inroad into the territory, isn't it?
Some percentage of the new women are defined in the bill now as being drafted, so don't worry, gals, you are represented at the front, just not by your fellow women.
But if we go to the response to this, I had to pick my favourite outlet, which is Pink News, because the way they write their response to this...
It really does read like a parody article.
Sorry, trans women must sign up to US military draft under a rational and outdated rule.
Oh.
What is the irrational and outdated rule?
Oh.
The rule that men exist.
Oh.
Well, I mean...
That's irrational and outdated.
Honestly, I think the gender abolitionists are actually one step ahead of us on this.
I mean, having men or women for the draft, just people, just warm bodies.
No distinction at all.
Except, no, because that's not how reality works, and we all know it.
This is a funny thing, which is that for every day of every moment in the West, Westerners will literally lie to each other, and their leaders, and their bosses, and their employees, about how, oh yes, trans women are women, or blah blah blah blah blah, whatever stupid Western lie.
Women are equal to men, blah blah blah.
The entire rest of the world just thinks we're nuts.
Whenever you go to a foreign place and ask them, well, tell them about what is going on in our countries, they usually start laughing, thinking you're joking.
You're like, no, I'm serious.
And you load up whatever's going on, you show them, and they look at you.
Why would you do this?
Yeah, and this is another one of them, which is that we all lie to each other every single day in the West, or at least I should say those in the mainstream do.
Those of us living in the real world.
We get deplatformed instead.
Yeah, but you know, everyone in the halls of power have to lie to each other about this.
Until, of course, it suddenly actually matters and they all remember what reality is.
Because they know what's politically correct and what is actually factually correct.
And they know when to make a distinction, which is when they would be fired, but when it actually matters, they know to go for the factual correct one.
At least in this regard, for now.
As we see in the Soviet Union, political correctness can take over factual correctness when it comes to it.
And we're getting there.
But Pink New's right.
The policy, which has been present in the SSS legislation for several years, shocked many political activists and organizations.
I don't know how.
I know exactly how it shocks them because they were not aware of it in any way, shape, or form.
It had only been the case for the last 100% of the United States' existence.
The Eye of Sauron was looking somewhere over there and suddenly they're looking at this and they're like, "Oh my god!
This applies to us." With some calling for an immediate update or removal of the clause.
I love how the children again just think, "I will bang the table and the whole world will shift." And it's like, "No, the draft's kind of more serious than your nonsense." And, well, you can't just demand...
I demand the rules change.
Right, okay, go to Congress.
Vote on it.
Oh, wait, we did.
Oh, we voted to not do it.
Because we're not idiots.
I love these objections.
The policy, which has been present in SSS legislation...
Oh, sorry, just read that one.
F the Selective Service System and its transphobic bioessentialist inclusion of trans women as men.
That's the only problem with the draft, lads!
It's transphobic!
Well, not even that.
It is bioessentialist.
It believes in biology.
Yes.
Well, that's the long-running argument.
If you're a biological essentialist, then, of course, you don't think that men can become women.
I just love the idea as opposed to what?
Social constructivist.
Exactly, right?
Yeah.
It's like, I believe in biology.
Yeah, well, I believe in constructing things out of thin air.
Yeah, I believe that the gender roles just fell from the sky and have no connection to any biological nature that a human being might have.
When you play it out in those terms, instead of just screaming transphobe, it becomes far more clear.
Yeah, who's the lunatic?
There is this weird veneer when someone just screams, you're a transphobe, and then it's like, ooh, an accusation, they must be the bad person until proven innocent.
Ooh.
But instead, if you don't know, there's a bio-essentialist and a social-constructionist who just makes stuff up.
Yes.
Yeah, funnily enough, the bio-essentialist.
Yeah, you can thank Judith Butler for this.
It's just, I love the language.
Anyway, another commented on a letter they had received saying, being trans isn't fun anymore.
I just got my selective service system letter, and they're going to put me in the trenches.
Hey, man, you know, we've got to secure the future for Ukraine.
I love it as well that them being trans for this person was just fun.
It was a bit of a laugh in which they experienced, oh, yes, I am a woman, I swear, and then they got the letter saying, no, no, you have to serve if needs be.
But aren't there going to be a load of trans female to men, women to men, who are going to be, like, angry that they didn't get their selective service letter?
We haven't found any.
We'll keep looking until we get one of those.
There must be an entire contingent of them online going, hang on a second, I'm a man, I deserve to be drafted.
Me, Elliot Page.
I am just as manly as anyone else.
Where's Elliot Page's draft?
I should be killing Russians with my bare fists.
No, funnily enough, they've not written that.
The next James Bond isn't being drafted.
I can't believe it.
Elliot Page is there with her pink purse and a little doggy going, don't bother me.
Playing with her pigtails.
I don't know anything about war.
What?
That's a man's game.
The newly rediscovered policy.
What do you mean rediscovered?
This is not the new world!
It's been on the website the whole time, but you just never looked, did you?
But it's not even just the website.
It's like, for 100% of America's history, this has been the case.
And you're like, oh my god, this is going on...
Newly rediscovered?
I was shocked to find the Constitution.
Yeah, but when they say newly rediscovered, this floated to the top of the stream of nonsense on Twitter.
And then we saw it and we were like, oh god, what, me?
But they say this newly rediscovered policy also gave a mass of transphobes.
Oh, the real problem.
The bioessentialists instead of the lunatics.
The excuse to start airing bigoted rhetoric such as that men are the ones in the draft, women are not.
Yep, bigoted rhetoric, I'm sure.
Deeply illiberal.
Claiming that the policy clearly shows that trans women are men.
Ah, yeah.
According to the US government.
Despite the fact, policies can, shockingly, be sometimes wrong.
Okay.
How would you like to change it?
Not this time, though, is it?
It's like, yeah, the policies can be wrong, usually when they start saying that women are men.
When they say men are men, and women are women, usually they're right.
But, um, sorry gals, you haven't got long to go and join.
I suppose the trans gals in the audience who are desperate to be drafted...
In 2020, the National Centre for Transgender Equality demanded that Congress retract the clause, arguing that it created needless hardship for trans and intersex individuals.
So indeed, we are going back to drafting our daughters for trans people.
So it will be that the females to males, all of the autistic lesbian women who have been transitioned, 21 years old and whatnot, We'll be sent to the trenches, but not because we think it's a good idea to draft women.
Because we have to believe that they're men.
Yes.
So, we had, as I showed, the debate before in the United States about should we draft women, and even the Democrats eventually went, wait, that's a really stupid idea.
Let's not do that.
But now, because it is transphobic, it is now being recommended in Congress that...
Yeah, maybe we should.
I don't want to be a transphobe.
I think we should.
God forbid.
Why shouldn't we send our pregnant women in tanks to the front?
God forbid transphobia.
And in case you think I'm being a bit hyperbolic with that example, I remember when we were in Germany, we met a member of the AFD. He was telling us how the Ministry of Defence was currently being sued in Germany because their tanks were not suitable for pregnant women and therefore were not inclusive enough.
I don't know if you remember him telling us that.
Not offhand, actually, but I can believe that a tank is not suitable for a pregnant woman.
Yeah, it was true as well, that the seating was not actually to standard.
Well, I mean, of course...
Yeah, so they were redoing the seating, and it was costing them a few million euros.
Germany's so committed to liberal ideology, they're like, well, look, we're not going to be transphobes about this.
We're going to have pregnant women in our tanks.
Extend the seats!
It's like the worst place to be pregnant women.
Not even, we're going to send you to the front where you just sit in a foxhole.
Instead, you have to drive the tank and get shot at with anti-tank missiles.
I think just anywhere on a battlefield is pretty much the worst place to be a pregnant woman.
I'd still have preferences.
It wouldn't be the tank I'd be wanting to sit in.
Anyway, so that is how the Drafting Our Daughters is going to go about.
A congressionally mandated commission studying the SSS gender policies recommended making the registration system gender-neutral.
Because, um, yeah, transphobia.
After reviewing the institution, it found that maintaining a specifically gendered draft was harmful to both trans and intersex individuals, and said that the SSS should either switch to a gender-neutral approach or be removed entirely.
You would have thought the response would have been that, okay, we'll just class them all as women.
You trans, you're a woman.
Get out of here.
You're not suitable for the draft.
That would be actually fairly reasonable.
I'm gender neutral.
Leave.
I don't want you in the front.
But literally, what does removed entirely mean?
So it should either be gender neutral or removed entirely.
Is it no draft at all?
Yeah, either we draft everyone or nobody.
Right, okay.
I say draft everyone.
Yeah, instead we are going to send the pregnant women in the tanks.
God, imagine the female influencers on the front line.
Get off your phone that has satellite targeting on it.
Literally, it's telling the Russians our location.
Actually, the Russians already did that.
The Russian men were all playing on their phones and you could see on Google Street View which Ukrainian roads were congested.
So it's like you could literally tell where the tanks were coming because this red line of congested traffic would just move.
Anyway.
Morons.
But that is not quite as bad as the TikTok nurses who will be drafted and then twerking as we all get shot at.
Honestly, I think it's exactly what they deserve.
We welcome the Commission's recognition that a nationwide system based on a blanket gender roles and stereotypes is irrational and outdated, said the National Centre for Transgender Equality.
It's irrational that you would separate men from women when it came to the draft.
It's just irrational.
It's outdated, mate.
Irrational stereotypes that men are made for war.
What?
Okay, fine.
Yeah, no biological reality could ever show such a thing.
It's almost like the women should be kept at home so we have a future generation, perhaps, whereas the men, you don't need as many.
This is definitely an outdated stereotype.
There is a stereotype that women are the baby makers.
Definitely outdated.
Don't you know men can also get pregnant?
That's literally what they're going to say.
That's actually going to be their response.
Quote, the current system is confusing and creates needless hardship for many.
Actually, I thought it was quite clear.
I did think it was clear as well.
Men, yes.
Women, no.
This is too confusing for the trans lobby.
They have decided that we must intervene and instead destroy the whole thing.
Well, the trans lobby are literally going to send a delegation saying, excuse me, please define woman.
And then we're into the mystical concept of woman from their perspective.
So it is confusing in a way.
So there we have it.
There is the Draft Our Daughters campaign, which started out as a right-wing meme from some S-poster in the Trump-Hillary campaign, became another right-wing meme for some right-wing congressman, and then everyone dropped it until we realized, oh, isn't this transphobic?
And in the current year, we are actually going to end up drafting our daughters on the basis that, well, I don't want to offend the non-binary weirdos screeching at me.
We've got to do it.
No, no, we really have to do it.
The only way they're going to learn is by enforcing the things they're demanding.
Make them live by their own set of rules.
This is like Alinsky's first rule or something.
Make them live up to their own rulebook.
Actually, I think this is like an eighth rule, but...
You know, it's one of his important rules.
Make them do it.
Make them feel the pain.
Make them feel the consequences of what they've been demanding this whole time.
You're right.
We need to get rid of any gender distinctions at all when it comes to the draft, or war, or any of these things that create remarkable hardships that men are expected to shoulder, which is part of the dignity of being a man, in fact.
No, no, no, no, ladies.
Out.
Go.
So there we have it, ladies.
Get ready to take aim at Russian inequality, I guess, as the meme did propose, and I suppose prophesied.
Love it.
With the floodgates.
Oh, God.
So, you might be like, oh god, you're not going to talk about immigration again, are you?
And it's like, well, I kind of have to, because it's going on all the time, it's literally floodgates that are open, and there is a human tide entering our civilizations, and no one cares.
And those few people that do care can do nothing about it.
And some of these people are in governments.
They can do nothing about it, apparently.
We don't have any power.
Yeah, exactly.
What power does the government have over a country?
God.
And the reason this bothers me is because we are going to end up in Megacity 1, which we did a hangout about, and if you want to watch it, you should, because we go into why the conservatives in this country, and I haven't looked, but I can imagine it's very similar in America, who is in favour of building loads of houses?
oh the people who get paid to build houses are actually in favor of building loads of houses and that's why 20 of the money that the conservative party in britain makes is from the housing industry it isn't it i am shook and the conservatives like a million immigrants a year Then the progressives say, well, we need more houses.
And the Conservative Party gets richer and richer.
Anyway, you may remember the Martha's Vineyard migrant crisis, which now has some Wikipedia page.
Migrant crisis.
Crisis!
Oh, God.
I love it.
It doesn't even have kerfuffle or something.
Try and downplay it.
There's a million migrants a month crossing the southern border in the United States.
So places like, you know, Texas and, you know, various other, New Mexico, whatever, you know, all these border states are really suffering.
Because millions of them.
A million a month.
A million a month.
And that's only what they can know.
You also have to remember our poor, innocent migrants who totally are fleeing war are also suffering because you add millions and millions of people to such a small area, it becomes obviously incredibly unsanitary and crime-ridden and chaotic.
Yeah.
Which is why they need to go to Martha's Vineyard, in fact.
And Ron DeSantis had a stroke of genius and showed us that...
Go back a second.
We can talk about this.
Because this is like Martha's Vineyard nationalism.
That became the hot meme out of this, because it was within basically the same day that they got deported.
It's shocking!
Shocking border controls.
Deported, dead or alive.
Yeah, well, they got sent to a military base, actually.
Jesus Christ, all right.
And, of course, the Democrats were like, you can't do this.
This is a political stunt.
Oh, really?
You know, please.
You're playing politics with people's lives.
Also, let in millions of immigrants to flood the South.
Ah, look at that.
Texas is becoming a blue state.
So, okay, we play politics with 50 people's lives.
You play politics with two million.
A million this month?
No, no, it's a million a month that's coming across.
Fantastic.
It's staggering.
It's just unbelievable, right?
And so people are like, oh, how dare?
How dare?
But evil.
Despicable.
Joe Biden send migrants around the country?
No, no, it was Ron DeSantis they were talking about.
But it turns out that Joe Biden had been doing exactly the same thing.
Biden had been deporting people, just Orange County, New York...
In the dead of night.
In the dead of night.
So nobody would know.
In exactly the same way that DeSantis has done.
Except he's sending them to what Trump may have called assholes, frankly.
Like New York.
Which is definitely an asshole.
Yep.
These were two flights that went from El Paso that has been overwhelmed with an average of 900 immigrants a day.
This is one city, 900 immigrants a day.
These particular flights carried 50 teenagers, and the flights were going to the area because they don't want to have eyes on it.
Whatever that means.
The county blocked my people from coming in and out of my business because they're waiting for these buses.
So it's definitely happening.
People on the ground saying it.
They don't want you to know about it either.
No, they don't.
Exactly.
So what's it like for the migrants when they arrive in New York City?
Because if you're from, say, Venezuela, one, there's no war going on there.
Two, your economy's in better shape than America probably at this point.
And three, the temperature.
You're basically on the equator.
New York gets cold in the winter, and it's October now.
Yeah, but if you're genuinely fleeing hell, then that's not a problem.
Actually, it turns out it is.
Because, I mean, you went to El Paso in Texas.
The weather's nice.
If you get to the next one, you get to New York City and you are just abandoned there by the Democrats.
I mean, this, I would say, is a crisis for these people because, of course, they're knocking on doors asking for food, clothes, and work after they were just shoved in some hotels there.
They weren't ready for the cold temperatures of the Big Apple.
And so they don't have sufficient clothing to actually survive the winter.
But you have a hotel room.
Sure, but, you know, it's still not warm.
I assume it's heated.
It's what we do with our migrants.
We'll have to check.
But anyway, locals say they were never informed that so many migrants would be brought to their middle-class neighbourhood at once, and the area is overwhelmed with sudden flood of needy families.
Mayor Adams has declared a state of emergency.
This is 50.
Another state of emergency over 50 migrants.
He's warned that the influx is pushing the city's shelter system to its breaking point and setting taxpayers back by a billion dollars a year.
Okay, do we have any sympathy for Texas?
Do we have any sympathy for the Republican states on the border at this point?
And you think, okay, well, there's a lot of South Americans, right?
That makes sense, obviously.
People on Soros' migrant caravans moving up to South America.
Weirdly, there's a surprisingly high number of Indians.
Yeah.
You don't think that's weird?
No, this is entirely normal.
You go to any migrant camp, you will find lots of people who are not from countries that are at war, or even in bad homework shape, or even, frankly, bad to be in.
And instead, they just decide, yeah, I'm sick of this, I'm leaving.
And then go all the way to Europe or America.
But...
They're not going all the way to America.
They're going all the way to Mexico to sneak across the Mexican-American border.
When Lawrence Southern was in Morocco meeting the people smugglers there and the migrants, she ran into a Chinaman.
He had fled from mainland China, he says, all the way to Morocco.
I don't know how.
How was it going?
He was trying to break into Spain.
Right, okay.
Some people are just...
I don't know.
I don't know what's wrong with them.
I don't know why you wouldn't go to the next safe country and be fine.
But, I mean, America lets in like a million and a half legal migrants anyway.
Yeah.
It's not like...
And we let in a million.
It's not like there's border controls.
You've got to do the paperwork and they pay, you know, like $100 for a visa.
I guess so.
It's really taxing.
Whereas, travelling halfway across the fucking earth...
And then sneaking across a desert...
Yeah, and paying thousands of dollars in people smuggling fees is way easier.
Much better.
So last year, in fact, in the 2020 fiscal year, 17,000 nearly Indian citizens were taken to U.S. custody at the Mexican border.
How lost are you?
I was trying to get to Bangladesh!
You went the wrong way!
Experts point to a number of reasons for the increase, including a climate of discrimination in India, an end to pandemic-era restrictions.
Oh yeah, that's alright.
It was the pandemic that was preventing them from going.
And a perception that the current US administration is welcoming asylum seekers and ramping up of previously established smuggling networks.
So I think it's the last two that are actually the real issue here.
I can get into America because the Americans, the Biden administration, is happy to have me over, even though it was Kamala Harris who said, don't come.
And the ramping up of the smuggling network.
So the smugglers are making stupid amounts of money.
They've also hidden something to you there.
The COVID era restrictions you're referring to, The Trump administration decided, well, this is a perfect opportunity, and actually did something good, which is they said, hmm, yeah, don't want to catch COVID, so back you go.
They literally would refuse loads and loads of immigrants on the basis of...
Got COVID? Get out.
What could have COVID was the argument.
So it was just enforce the border, but we can't say it because, well, this is America because that's racism.
So instead we will say, because of COVID, we swear, and that was approved.
No one would question that?
I guess so.
And when the Biden admin got in, I mean, this hadn't been useful at any point.
No.
As in, for COVID. It was just...
Obviously.
Nothing to do with COVID. And when they got in, they got rid of it because they wanted more migrants in.
And, well, they got it.
Thank God for the current thing.
So they say in this BBC article, traditionally Indian migrants who arrive at the US-Mexican border use, I don't know if this is a tradition, Indian migrants to arrive at the US-Mexico border.
You mean Indians or Indians?
Actual Indians, not Injins.
Hordes of Injins turning up.
But they use door-to-door smuggling services, journeys arranged from India to South America, which must cost a fortune.
Yeah.
Right.
They are often guided the entire way and travel in small groups with their fellow countrymen who speak the same language rather than individually or with family members.
These networks often begin in India with travel agents, quote unquote, which outsource parts of the journey to partner criminal groups in Latin America.
I mean, to be honest with you, there's a part of me that's starting to admire the thrift in the industry.
Like, you know, it's like, look, I'll just get in contact with a guy from India, we'll get in contact with a guy in Venezuela, and then we'll get some Mexican smugglers to get them across the border.
That's a logistical nightmare.
I also don't really understand how the people smugglers are able to convince the customers to be so stupid.
Oh, trust us, we'll get you in there.
No, no, it's more about the amount of money it costs to go from India to South America all the way up to the US border.
Whereas you could have just got on a flight to the UK. Legally.
We let quite a lot of you in.
Claim asylum at the airport and you've got a hotel.
Not that I should say that.
Jesus, don't do that.
That doesn't work.
Instant deportation to Rwanda.
It's not happening.
But that's my point, which is that when you go and meet migrants who are doing this, you just sort of think, I know how much money you're spending.
Why are you doing this?
Yeah.
And, like, it just seems so risky as well, right?
Like, how do you know he's going to get you to the Mexican border, the US-Mexico border?
it's just faith.
Also, if you think, like, if we tomorrow, Carl, just decided, okay, we're gonna take a flight to Romania, and then walk up into Ukraine, and weird example, but to claim asylum, right?
Like, by the end of it, you're gonna look like crap.
Like, your clothes are gonna be a complete mess, you'll probably have no money, you've spent all along the way.
Like, your life is going to be obviously worse than when you started, even if you're living in India.
Yes.
I don't understand.
I mean, I would just be so suspicious about it.
I'd be like, look, I'm just going to be, like, found in ten years' time as just an Indian body in the desert.
But, if you're wanted for a crime...
Fair point.
So anyway, this is the result of a ripple effect, apparently, that takes place when those who have used these services successfully recommend them to friends and family back in India.
So it's word of mouth.
Hey, no, they got me here.
I wasn't just dumped in the desert.
And the thing is as well, this is the illegal immigration, but then we can just move on to the legal immigration.
Because apparently there's a problem in India, and we have this problem with India as well, that there are long visa waits.
And as you can see from Joe from the Wall Street Journal here, Joe's actually one of the founding members of Palantir, actually.
For some reason, writing in the Wall Street Journal saying, look, we're losing our talent.
We need them migrants.
We need to hoover up the world's migrants.
Bring them in.
In the first wave, you get the middle class, and this is where this narrative comes from, where we try and justify, like, oh, look, this guy's a doctor or an engineer or blah, blah, blah.
And then the subsequent 11 waves, funnily enough, not everyone in Syria was a doctor, engineer or lawyer.
No.
Shocked.
A lot of them weren't.
Maybe about 50% weren't in the top 1%, maybe.
I don't know.
You might think, well, hang on a second, doesn't Syria need those doctors?
And it turns out, no.
Because something like 90% of Syria's population are actually doctors.
Don't worry about that.
And they don't have that much demand.
I don't know why there's so much supply.
Anyway, yeah, so the view from the Wall Street Journal and the opinion section is, of course, we're missing out on talent.
We need to make it really easy for people to move to the United States legally.
We'll be undercutting the people smugglers.
This is going to help us get to that billion-person, billion-man United States that Matty Iglesias wanted.
We need a billion people, man.
If you want to stop the crime, stop the customers.
Yeah.
Like, the criminals will keep doing their jobs with people.
No, no, no.
If you want to stop the crime, make it legal.
Okay, yeah, sure.
Boom.
Done.
Stop the crime again and it would be fixed.
There's only a billion, 1.6 billion Indians or something.
Calm down.
Yeah, I mean, there's only 6 billion people outside our country.
We can lay in half of them, surely.
Anyway, moving over to Britain.
The floodgates are, of course, open here.
Turns out that...
I just find these numbers so depressing.
Migrants from Nigeria may face a clampdown under Sweller-Braveman's plans to cut knit migration as it emerged that citizens from the West African country are bringing the highest number of relatives to the United Kingdom.
They're 40% of all dependents who accompany the foreign students.
So foreign students are allowed to bring dependents.
Strikes me as weird.
Strikes me as insane.
Yeah, yeah.
Doesn't it?
You know, you're here to study for three years or something, or four years.
Why are you bringing anyone?
I mean, I suppose if you're an adult student, you might bring your kids.
Maybe you've got to bring my nan, though.
Why would you bring your nan?
Yeah.
What about my aunties and my uncles?
Well, my cousin has to...
That's a terrible Nigerian accent.
No, no, no.
I was thinking more Nico Bellic.
Oh, right.
This is, despite Nigerian students, making up just 7% of all foreign students.
They're 40% of all the dependents.
Despite being 7%?
Yeah.
34,000 Nigerians were given study visas in the UK, bringing with them a total of 31,000 dependents.
That's almost one-to-one.
This is mad.
Everyone brings their mum.
A similar ratio was with work visas.
And this is compared to the 114,000 Chinese students who brought 400 dependents.
As you might expect.
Mostly trying to get away from mum and dad.
Probably.
But they're not bringing the dependents.
That's the important thing.
And the 90,000 Indian students brought 24,000 dependents.
These are huge numbers.
These are huge numbers.
That's for one year.
These are insane.
I mean, that's, like, just those, that's more than a quarter of a million.
That's not including the dependents.
Trust me, they'll only be here for three years and then leave.
Yeah.
But it's okay, actually, though.
I mean, we're sat here being like, this is bad.
I'm kind of sick of just the sheer number of people coming to my country.
But, luckily, the British public backs higher immigration, says one local immigrant.
Nadim Zahawi.
Oh.
Right.
I was going to say, what poll has he used?
Probably YouGov.
Exactly!
71% of the public!
He did own YouGov.
He founded it, yeah.
The public backs higher immigration to deliver growth, he insists.
Compared to what...
With my poll!
No, all polling that has been done on the concept of immigration has shown that the British public want less of it, and they have done since the days of Enoch Powell.
This is just not something that's changed.
Ever since the founding of YouGov?
He's like, look, we need looser rules to allow in more engineers.
We have...
90% of India's engineers.
I'm going to smash something.
I know!
I'm so sick of this joke of a meme becoming real.
We're like, oh, we need doctors and engineers.
We need more engineers.
We've never built anything in Britain, can't we?
99% of the people we bring in are not the top 1% of the world, funnily enough.
That's how the numbers will work, as anyone would expect.
And instead of like, yeah, no, we need more of that 1% from around the world, even though we're already bringing in...
Our net is so wide, we're getting 99% of stuff we don't want.
Yes.
But trust it, just make the net wider.
But as this immigrant points out, the public are in favour of immigration, which makes me think that, oh, I'm not in the public anymore.
I'm no longer a member of the public.
You're not a wonderful Kurdish man like this.
No, so who's the public that he's referring to?
Well, the people of Kurdistan, why us?
Or just immigrants.
At this point, one in four people in England is an immigrant, so that's the public in his view, surely, who are in favour of more immigration.
And so the only two people, we've got Kemi Baynock, of course, has been talking about this, and Sweller Braveman.
Two brown women.
But they might not be part of the public.
They're also not a part of the public.
That's correct.
So the Braveman has been really strong on this, which is great.
It's nice that someone is.
I mean, there's literally not a single other person who is prepared to come out and say, maybe we should cut the number of immigrants.
Well, any white MP would immediately lose their job.
Exactly.
Racist.
Thanks, Conservative Party.
Braverman, she's like, look, we have, for the last 15 or so years, been pledging to reduce the number of migrants into Britain to the tens of thousands, which implies 90,000.
Frankly.
That's tens of thousands.
About 99,000.
Yeah, exactly.
1999, actually.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, yeah, but it's still...
That's much of those numbers, Carl.
It's still too much, right?
And she's like, look, in the face of, of course, the Conservatives having done nothing of the sort and bringing in a million last year, which is twice what Tony Blair ever thought of bringing in.
Done nothing for 12 years as well.
Yeah, that's true.
The Home Secretary said she would aspire to cut overall migration figure from the current level of 239,000.
That's not the overall migration figure.
The government's own figure showed 1.16 million came in last year.
At most, 400,000 leave.
At most.
They remigrate.
So I don't know where the independents are getting that figure from.
Presumably 2011.
She was forced to admit the Conservative plan to send people seeking asylum to Rwanda will not happen for a long time.
Conservatives have got an absolute majority in this country, and Parliament is sovereign.
They could literally vote to uproot this entire country, just wholesale, and shove it further out into the Atlantic if they want, and somehow we'd have to make that happen.
They could pass legislation to do anything.
Pass legislation to have it so that this country is renamed Hogwarts if they want.
They literally can do it.
There's no cap on the power that the Conservatives have.
Yet, here we are!
It's like, we just can't get rid of these illegal immigrants.
Sorry, I don't know what to do about it.
It's a weird way to stand with J.K. Rowling, isn't it?
She, at the Tory party conference, recently said her ultimate aspiration is to get net migration down to the tens of thousands.
I think we have to definitely substantially reduce the number of students, the number of work visas, and in particular, the number of dependents on those sort of visas.
How could that possibly happen, Sweller?
There was someone who made the laws.
Yeah, if only there were rules that were set by people who aren't Tony Blair.
Maybe she should write to her local MP. David Cameron first pledged this in 2010, so literally it's been like 12 years.
Of course, that was never done, and so this is nonsense.
But the thing is, this really annoyed India.
You know, our closest ally.
An Indian woman in the British government said maybe we need to reduce the number of Indians who come to Britain and the Indian government responded by saying well we're not going to let the Indians come back.
What?
No, I'm joking.
So, this journalist here...
Do you want your Indians to stay in India?
Oh, God, no.
You did spend all that money trading on them.
We've got 1.4 billion Indians.
Yeah, I know everyone in India wants to leave, but I mean, the government would want them to stay, presumably.
No, right.
Apparently, this journalist says, I was told this morning the Indian government is retaliating Exuela Braveman's comments last week by putting delay on visas to India.
This has led to hundreds of British Indians having their plans thrown into disarray of visa delays.
Braverman told the spectators she had concerns about having open borders migration policy with India because there are literally 1.4 billion of them and 45 million English and Welsh.
And the Indian visa overstayers were a huge problem.
The Indian government was quite annoyed by this statement.
So if you're a British Indian, your plans have been laid to waste over unexpected visa delays, you can blame the Home Secretary.
What are you going to do?
Cora?
I'm racist.
But no, you don't blame the Home Secretary.
Like, she said something that's perfectly reasonable, and the Indian government has decided to be retarded.
Well, the Indian Home Secretary has said something that the Indian government has got upset about, and therefore is imposing a punishment on Indians.
Is there a single English person involved in any of this?
I'm just saying it as an Englishman being like, why are there a bunch of Indians arguing in my country?
What is going on about this?
And of course, Sweller Braven was like, look, we need to get out of the European Convention on Human Rights.
If only she was part of a government that had a commanding majority that could do such a thing.
Again, she has a right to her local MP. This has, of course, put the trade deal with India in crisis, you see.
If India isn't allowed to flood Britain with Indians, then they're not going to trade with us, and that's enough of that.
If you go to the next one, a source in Delhi said...
Fair trade?
I'm not annoyed by that.
A source in Delhi said they were shocked and disappointed by the disrespectful remarks.
Couldn't call her a racist, because she's Indian.
So what are they going to do?
Disrespecting India.
National Indians want to, I don't know, move all over the world.
Indian government sources have said that the relationship has taken a step back following Braverman's comments.
There's still a lot of goodwill, but if certain individuals are still embedded in government, it will paralyze the talks.
It's like, God.
Anyway, off to Rwanda.
She was famously quoted as saying, look, when it comes to the channel migrants, which we will get to in a second, she was saying, look, I really want to send them to Rwanda.
It's my dream and obsession that we can see them on the front page of the Telegraph being deported.
So is this woman single?
Yeah, I know.
She's great.
Don't get me wrong.
Honestly, from what I've seen of her rhetoric so far, it's all great, but...
Deliver.
Do something.
Make it happen.
But the reason that none of this is happening is because 10 Downing Street, Liz Truss, has decided to sideline Braverman and actually go with Nadim Zahawi's proposals for some reason.
Because their poll numbers aren't low enough.
I've seen consistent polls now.
I've seen about six polls that show the Conservatives on somewhere between 20% and 25% approval.
Various outlets.
Yeah.
It's accurate when you speak to people as well.
Yeah.
Everyone hates it.
Don't know why they're doing it.
But yeah, so this was Liz Truss is keen to hand out more visas to achieve the growth she needs to save her premiership.
That's right.
Imagine that.
It doesn't cause growth.
But imagine...
More people equals economy, more good.
But literally, Liz Truss is sat there like, yeah, right, okay.
We need another few dozen million Indians in this country.
And so when every other person in this country is an Indian, this trust is going to come up to you and say, This is the GDP high?
Didn't this save my premiership?
Aren't you pleased with what I've done to save the economy of this country?
GDP per capita is now $2,000 per person.
Literally like in India.
But the net GDP is a trillion dollars.
Exactly.
That's exactly the way they look at it.
Anyway, so that's just the legal immigration.
Let's go over to the channel.
How are things there?
Oh, right, 750 a day.
You remember when it was 100 a day?
I remember when it was like 10 a day.
Yeah.
And we were like, oh, that's too many.
We should fix this before it gets worse.
Yeah.
It's 750 a day now.
Not good.
As they point out, the Home Office cannot acquire properties quick enough.
So what do we need to do?
There's only one thing left for it, lads.
Send them all to Brighton.
We're going to have to contact David Oslund and see what his view on it is.
He posted this, just some rando on Twitter.
The housing shortage isn't caused by immigration.
It's caused by not building enough houses.
Where does David live?
Dunno.
Because we can send quite a few there.
We're going to his house, aren't we?
No, I think we should Martha's Vineyard these people.
In real life!
No, I'm thinking we should Martha's Vineyard these people.
I think DeSantis is absolutely right.
We need to start shipping them all either to central London, like the richest parts, or send them to Brighton, the most progressive part of the country.
He is, of course, a wealthy communist.
I love this.
It's not about the immigration.
There just aren't enough houses.
It's like, okay, but who needs the houses, David?
Who needs the houses?
Where do these people come from?
What are their names?
Well, the entire rest of the world.
That's who we serve.
Exactly.
Not ourselves.
I hate what this country is doing with immigration, and there's no end to it.
There is just no end to it.
The floodgates are open, and everyone is just asking the wrong questions.
With that, let's go to the video comments.
Standing in my parents' garden in Northam looking out toward Instow and panning past Easter water, the town of Biddeford will just become visible at the right.
Notorious in 2019 for a local councillor taking seriously a resident's complaint that its nickname of The Little White Town, because of the painting on its houses, was racist.
Fortunately, that claim has now been dropped.
I assume this is the councillor looking out, which, um...
Needs more Indians.
Ask Liz Truss.
Yeah, he needs to be never anywhere near the levers of power ever again, even if he's just a local councillor.
I mean, literally, you could take 45 million Indians out of India, still have 350 million Indians, 1.3 billion, 1.35 billion Indians left.
No, no, 1.35 billion Indians left.
Would you even notice that they'd gone?
No.
Sorry.
It's a funny thing.
You can go to any country on Earth at this point, and you'll find loads of mainland Chinese people and shops that the Communist Party have set up because of Silk Road Initiative or whatever, right?
And I'm always just amazed by just saying, huh.
Because you don't get it unless, I suppose, you visit China.
You're just like, there's always more people than you think in life.
And the thing is, I've never even met an Indian I didn't like.
Every Indian I've ever met are really nice people.
Same with Chinese.
It's just the numbers.
Pure numbers.
Exactly.
It's literally just the pure numbers.
John Cleese is right.
London isn't an English city.
Why?
Because it's not full of English people.
That's why.
It's just the way it is.
See you in the next video.
On the subject of the Dahmer documentary, I wanted to bring up the movie A Time to Kill, which is about a bunch of white supremacists brutalizing a black family, and that's based on a true story.
But in reality, while this did happen, the races were actually reversed.
There's something very dark about how the author could sit through this whole trial, acknowledge all the really wicked stuff that happened, and then write his book, but feel a need to reverse this context so that he could put down the ethnic group of the victims.
Yeah, it's kind of gross.
I probably should go and cover the...
The Waukesha mask, yeah.
Yeah, I forgot to say the name.
He is a lunatic.
Have you seen any of it?
No.
He's an absolute freak.
Is this actually a mentally ill person?
I think he might actually be mentally ill.
Did he target white people because of them being white?
I haven't been following it that closely.
It's just that he's been doing really freakish things in the courtroom.
So it's just like...
If I remember correctly, there were some Facebook postings from him that were black nationalists.
Yeah, he probably is a black nationalist.
I mean...
To be fair, I mean, the black nationalists all look mentally ill anyway.
Yeah, exactly.
Just like, that's right!
Yeah, exactly!
We was from Israel!
Yeah, no, he's not mentally ill, he's just a black nationalist bloody Israel, Israelite Hebrew or whatever.
It's like, oh yeah, yeah, he's not mental.
Thank goodness!
Mozart was a black man.
The Russians, they was all speaking French until the black man turned up and speak the Russian.
See, the ones that are yelling that the Holocaust was a good thing in the middle of New York Street.
Yeah.
Just...
Hello, Hitler!
You can't be saying that!
You've not seen Tariq Nasheed's video, the one I'm referencing, where he argues that the man who invented the Russian language was a black man, so all the Russians were speaking French.
Watson Cyril.
I think so.
It was like, yeah.
Because the nobility spoke French, therefore the Russians all spoke French, which is why they're called Russians.
Anyway, so this guy turned up, this brother, and taught them how to write and speak in Russian, and ever since, the Russians have been ripping off the black man and oppressing the black man.
But why don't they view it as a gift?
If St.
Cyril, the sub-Saharan African, turned up in Russia...
And gave them this.
Why not say, look, the Russians, don't you owe us a thanks?
Do you know the Japanese were Ethiopians?
I do now.
They were Ethiopians that came over from Korea.
Are they?
And that's why all the samurais were black.
Ethiopians from Korea?
Yes.
Okay.
It's very painful.
That explains a lot, actually, I've got to say.
Basically, anything that's doing well in the current time period he's talking is black.
Anything that's not is white.
You know, there was actually a black samurai.
There was one.
There was, you know, an ex-slave who was brought over.
Okay, I thought you were referencing something on the internet then.
No, no, no, no.
There's actually pictures of this guy who became a samurai, like, from, like, you know, 1860 or something.
And this black guy was a samurai.
You know, it's like, okay, this is one guy.
What does katana mean?
It means Japanese sword.
Samurai cop.
But there was actually one guy who was a black samurai.
So, you know, there's that.
But it's not to say that all of Japan are black people.
Well, you have it with the English.
Richard, whatever, Trumpetman.
They're like, see?
Look!
I saw an amazing post the other day that claimed that Mussolini was a black man.
I'm listening.
Yeah, exactly.
I was just like, I agree.
Let's go to the next video.
I've got Italian friends who are just like, damn it!
Hello there.
You have to forgive this glare, I'm afraid.
I'm sorry about that.
I've got a question to ask.
Since conservatism is part of traditionalism to a degree, would you consider any right-wing atheists conservatives or just libertarians?
I consider myself as an atheist as libertarian, but I just wondered your opinion.
Very complex question.
I'm actually reading Evola at the moment.
Does your religion kind of determine your political stance?
No, no, it's not that.
So if you're leaning into the sort of Evolian view, then all tradition is infused with a kind of sacral element, and so you have to be religious in some way to uphold the tradition, to create the metaphysic of the tradition.
But I mean, I would say, yes, you could be an atheist and a conservative, because I think I know atheist conservatives.
Really?
I've never met one.
How about you, Carl?
Exactly.
But there is a much bigger discussion to be had there, or a traditionalist conservative who's an atheist.
I think it's something I'm going to have to answer when I finish reading Voller.
It's quite interesting, I've got to say.
It's bonkers, but it's, you know, Italian, so of course it's bonkers.
Everything, every political tradition outside of England is bonkers, as far as I'm concerned.
I was going to say, every philosophical book I see you reading, your conclusion from it is always, well, this is mad.
Well, yeah, it is.
But then when we do a book club on it, it's like, wow, that was crazy.
Yeah, and I listen to you and just go, I know.
So much madness I have to listen to.
Yeah, but this is what, like, all of the other peoples of the earth think.
And then he just comes to him and he's like, no, that's nonsense.
Just make the Black Samurai seem more legitimate.
Yeah.
But, I mean, Evola is at least interesting, right?
He's got, like, essentially, you know, this world and the transcendental world, and then heroic deeds are a way of bridging across the transcendental world.
It's actually quite interesting.
It's fun.
It sounds like something you read in Dungeons& Dragons, but, like, you know, it's at least interesting.
Anyway, let's get to the next one.
Tony D. Tony D and Little Joan with another legend of the Lotus Eaters.
From Theodore of County Durnham comes the story of the Pickled Parson.
Senesfeld Hall in Sedgefield was the site and in the 1700s there was a parson who had to collect his tithe.
Unfortunately, he died about a week before it was supposed to happen.
His wife was in a bind, so she pickled the parson, propped his body up against the window so she could collect the money.
This didn't sit well with the parson, and the briny clergyman still haunts the building to this day.
Yesterday was a pub in Swindon.
Which is nice.
Haunted pub in Swindon.
I don't want to hear about it.
Remember last time you did that?
Getting closer and closer to where I live and I was just like, could you stop?
I actually know those places.
I've actually been to the haunted pub in Swindon and I didn't see any ghosts.
I imagine my kids are being too loud.
Or Tony D is fake news.
I don't know.
It's disgusting.
How dare you?
The Smirch is a good name.
Look at the written comments inside.
Yeah, I'm just reloading the thing.
But, um...
No, it's like, I didn't realize how much I'd missed Tony's ghost stories.
I enjoy them.
Anyway, Tom says, the big 500.
Never missed a single one.
Here's the next 500.
Thank you very much.
Owl says, happy 500th.
Seems like any yesterday when I watched Carl's 202 election coverage announcement of the site's launching.
2020, I assume you mean.
Thanks for all of your hard work.
P.S. I noticed a lack of BLM fist in your fireworks.
Shame on you.
BaseApe says, Oh, the two-year anniversary is coming up, is it?
Dustsoft video editor cracks knuckles.
Yeah, I mean, feel free to go nuts, actually.
George says, Happy 500th podcast.
I've been here since day one.
Really enjoy the content you provide.
You're my main source of news and the extra videos featuring historical and philosophical discussions are very much appreciated.
Here's to 500 more.
See, some people like exploring crazy foreign concepts.
Dr.
Ziggy says, Congratulations on the big 500, you mad lads.
I wish all you guys the best, and here's to the next 500.
So Lord Nerevar says, I'm late, but I can't ignore the Hasan Piker and Sam Hyde stuff.
I love how that socialist idiot has effectively been in hiding for weeks, been acting like a prick, then gets unspeakably angry when people bring it up when he goes to a public event.
Hasan, you can run, but you can't hide.
Everyone's smiling, though, as well.
I know, everyone's saying, Hasan, are you going to fight?
He's...
There's your own bloody fans saying, isn't that meme funny?
He just decides to turn on them.
No sense of humour.
No swag at all.
I love it.
I love it so much.
And again, what's Sam Hyde doing?
Nothing.
Now it's just in the ether.
Now it's just an unresolved contradiction.
This is going to loom over you forever, Hasan.
You know, until you deal with it.
X, Y, and Z says, but Hasan, I thought we punched Nazis.
He's like, yeah, that was until the Nazi was 6'5 and calling you out saying he's going to come to your house in real life.
Then he doesn't.
Robert says, Hasan is a bully.
He is seen on video pushing around smaller and obviously weaker opponents.
Then a bigger person comes along pushing back right in front of Hasan's audience and so Hasan crumbles like a crouton.
Exactly right.
Ewan says, Sam Hyde has turned Hasan into the new Dragon Lord.
And I tell you what, if it starts going that direction, just go and ask him, when's the fight, Hasan?
Just, when's the fight?
Charlie says, it's nice to see Hasan Piker keeping up the ancient Turkish tradition of picking on smaller people than them.
You know, like they did with the Armenians, Greeks and Kurdish.
Serbs, Bulgarians, Arabians.
Yeah, Hungarians.
The Romanians.
They try.
Russians.
Arabs.
Yeah.
The Iraqis, you know.
It is an ancient Turkish tradition.
Is there any more we can pick on?
What are Saudi people, I think?
Yeah, I mean, the Arab tribe.
Yeah, yeah.
Edward says, Which is literally what happened.
I love this.
You can run, but you can't Sam Hyde.
Great.
I love that this is becoming a meme.
Someone's going to start sending him mail with that in.
Physical mail.
If Sam Hyde actually writes him a letter, or even physically delivers it.
I know where you live.
Hassan actually can't keep getting away.
He'll get a stalking order if he does that.
Do it, Hassan.
Do it.
Take out a restraining order against Sam Hyde.
Pussy.
Do it.
God, what an absolute capitulation that would be.
Yeah, until Sam Hyde gets three years in jail.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Like, Hassan would...
That would be Hassan just basically admitting defeat.
He's like, no, I'm a complete cuck.
No, I had to get a restraining order on this comedian.
Yeah, but Sam has to go to jail.
He'll still make videos in there.
Yeah, exactly.
I don't think he would end up going to jail.
I don't know what the stalking laws are in the US, but I mean, if you did that, you would.
I mean, he literally gave him a death threat in front of thousands of people in an arena.
But nothing happened.
Well, that's what I mean by if he does a stalking order after getting written a letter.
The case against Sam is pretty big.
He doesn't have a huge amount of wiggle room to be like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
That wasn't serious.
LAUGHTER I know, but I do kind of want it to happen.
Ewan says, maybe you should conduct yourself better.
Okay, Mr.
9-11.
Exactly.
Hassan, America deserves 9-11.
Al-Qaeda were right.
You should conduct yourself better.
Hassan, no one's taking lectures from you, you dumbass.
James says, regarding TwitchCon, they didn't have a ball pit, but they did have a phone pit.
I should have included that.
I've seen the video.
Yeah, it looks painful.
An underfilled foam pit that a streamer jumped in to hit the bottom and fractured her spine.
She was a former porn star as well.
That's rough.
M1Ping says, Sam Hyde is living rent-free in Hassan's head.
The rents there were low enough to begin with since there's a lot of empty space.
But that is true, isn't it?
You know that every day someone says the name Sam Hyde.
Just love it.
Just love it.
Do you have a girlfriend?
Who cares?
No, I'm wondering if she should take on the meme.
That'd be cruel.
I mean, there's one thing where it's just...
I start doing it.
...Hasan getting dragon-lauded by the public.
It's another thing when your own girlfriend is like, so that's Sam Hyde.
Just gets texts from Cenk Uygur.
She'll be like, hey, so this guy wants to organise a fight, I heard.
I don't know.
Harry says, Sam always looks like an early 20th century Marxist philosopher.
Yeah, kind of.
To me, he looks kind of like an ogren.
Or 40k?
Yeah.
Just like this giant...
Oh, Sam Hyde, right.
Yeah, Sam Hyde, yeah.
Hassan looks like a ponce.
But Sam looks like, I don't know, something overgrown.
And that's the thing.
Hasan could just laugh at him and be like, dude, look at him.
He's a monster.
You know, eat me for breakfast.
Yeah, exactly.
But everyone would be like, yeah, fair enough, you know.
No one would be annoyed at Hasan for saying, I don't think I want to get my face chewed off by that psychopath.
You know, no one would...
Anyway.
Lala says, if we send pregnant women to war, what exactly are we defending?
That's a great question.
That's the answer.
Maureen says, There are actually practical reasons.
First thing...
Just to get it out of the way, we're not talking about peacetime or non...
In a war.
We're talking total wartime, which is when you need the draft.
Not even total war, but just any war.
The point being that it's not like, oh, these women are rather manly and therefore want to join the army or whatever and they'll do a good job.
It's, should we actually draft the entire female force?
I know the Israelis do it, but they don't actually want to.
If they got the option, they wouldn't have women at all in the draft.
And the Israelis are forced to have female-only battalions.
Yeah.
You can imagine why.
Trouble's like a fucking crouton.
We're gonna get you that clip.
Robert says, gender ideology is a luxury belief.
During a time of war, it will simply disappear.
Yes, all the feminists will be wearing plaid dresses and they'll be scrubbing those kitchens.
None of the Russians will be.
Actually, I suppose some of them will be trying to get out the draft.
Rick says, Being trans isn't funny anymore.
It's such a mask-off moment.
It may be the most accurate nail-on-the-head statement explaining that the trans activist movement is no different than the LARPing environmentalist activists gluing themselves to things.
That's exactly right, isn't it?
You know, so I'm doing this because it's fun, because I get attention, because it makes me special, and now I'm getting drafted.
This sucks.
Alexander says, Karen Strahl made this point a long time ago because during the OG feminist movement, many women were against getting the vote because they thought they'd be held to the same standards as men and required to register for the draft.
Yes, I remember that.
It's not like 70% of women were opposed to women getting the vote.
Why didn't they have a vote on it?
Why do they have the vote now?
Yeah.
Should have had the vote on it.
Women like, no.
I don't know if you want to watch the original meme.
Oh, go on then, yes.
This is from The Onion.
Yeah.
That thing's a man.
Look, there's a reason why 26 of the most physically fit women in the Marine Corps have failed out of this course.
That reason is simple.
When you put 120 pounds on the back of a woman, she crumbles like a fucking crouton.
But I mean, it's true, isn't it?
Like, you know, women can't qualify for the military.
No, for the High Laurels.
It's just...
I think I told you.
I don't know if I did.
There was a guy I met in Afghanistan who told me that story, which is that he didn't specify which course, but he was running a course.
And there was a big push one year.
They needed to get women to pass it.
I said, right, okay.
So they reached out in the military and they got, I think, six women candidates for this course.
And within the first day of the course, all six women voluntarily pulled out.
Yeah.
Right, okay.
That's solved.
Next year...
No, no, we're going to do a big advertising campaign to get women to apply for it as well.
So they spent all this money advertising, and he was like, you know, fine, whatever.
I'm happy to see if women can do it.
And he said, I believe, 20 candidates.
First day, all 20 failed, and voluntarily left.
And then they didn't bother for a few years, and they came back a few years ago, like recently, and there were three women who had passed, and he looked at the guy who ran the course, and he was like, you know how.
I remember a few years ago, there were a few women who sued the Royal Air Force.
The steps?
Yeah.
Because they were marching too broadly in a pool of muscle in their crotches.
Do you see what North Korean women have to do in their seven years of national service?
No, what?
They have to do the...
Is it the dishes?
It's the goose step thing.
You ever seen the parades?
But they do it even higher than the Nazis did.
Really?
And the women have to do exactly the same height as the men for gender equality, because communism...
Of course.
The women break their bones, legs, anything.
It's horrible.
There are some defectors who have spoken about the kind of injuries them and their comrades have experienced doing it.
And one of them, they sat down, you know, like a kid's react to, they had a North Korean's react to, and they had her react to Americans marching.
And you know how Americans is kind of a joke.
They just sort of step.
They're not goose-stepping.
Yeah, but even the British, like, there's a march.
The Americans just sort of step, like, having a walk.
And she looked at it and started crying.
And they're like, what's the problem?
And she's like, oh, the American commanders are so nice to their people.
Because it's like, they aren't going to break anything doing this.
So the idea that I'm going to sue because, oh, it's painful.
Alexander says, Pink Moose, you were against the draft because it's transphobic.
I'm against the draft because I'm not the government's property.
We are not the same.
Ewan says, Oh my god, you transphobes?
What about pregnant trans men in tanks?
Good point.
Didn't even consider it.
Didn't even think about it.
Let's hope Ukraine has the sense not to be dominated by Russia or the EU. Independence from Russia should not be won at the expense of handing over sovereignty to the EU as the price, says Free Will.
Well, I don't think Ukraine has a choice, to be honest.
I don't.
Ukraine's going to be a component of the global American empire or Russia.
Funny joke, I heard.
So, loads of Russian men are trying to avoid the draft, and loads of Ukrainian women have left Ukraine, and both of them have easy access to Serbia.
So there's loads of Ukrainian women in Belgrade, and loads of Russian men who have left in Belgrade.
So it's romantic.
They're going to bring about peace somehow.
What do you make of the Ukraine war?
Do you think Russia's going to...
Haven't they raised like 300,000 men?
No.
That's the reserves number, they said.
It can go as high as, I think, 10 million, and they're still in reserves.
As with all Russia's wars, it's just the tidal wave of humans until eventually the person capitulates, the country capitulates.
So I heard that they had bombed the bridge that connects Crimea to Russia, and of course to Russians, that's Russian territory.
So now the Federation's existence is under attack, which seems really stupid, but I don't know why they do that.
Legally, I do believe they can amp things up.
Well, it's more from the Russian mindset.
Can you now get support for the war?
Now the government can say, look, we are actually under attack.
The Ukrainians are not going to stop.
They're going to keep trying to kill us.
Therefore, we have to defend our oppressed brethren.
And so it's not so easy to just say that no one supports it.
And Zelensky has made the point that there's no limit to the number of Ukrainians who will die before he surrenders.
I mean, I don't know.
This isn't hugely my thing, the military side of it, but it doesn't look like they'll be able to take all of it.
I did think that what Elon Musk proposed will probably end up being the outcome after.
It won't be short.
People think this will be over by December.
No, this will be going on for years.
Oh good, another war that will be over by Christmas.
Yeah, two years minimum, probably.
Five years minimum, probably, as well.
So...
It'll keep going on and eventually there'll be some vote that's looked over by the UN or the US and some weird deal will be proposed.
Or we'll be in nuclear war.
Yeah, all that.
That's an easy one.
Thomas says, we should create a charity that buys rents and rents Airbnbs in the high-end regions of Chelsea, Surrey, Harrogate and whatnot for migrant places.
Share the wealth of diversity of all those doctors and engineers coming off the boat in the ranks of our betters.
I would, but those property prices just threw the roof.
Like, who can afford that, you know?
We voted for them.
Yeah.
I don't know how legitimate that argument is, though.
Because we keep voting for them when they keep saying, we will lower immigration.
It's like, parking better this time, and then they just don't.
I'm starting to think that maybe Labour would accidentally lower immigration.
Well, no, I'm not even joking.
The Labour Party, obvious incompetence, but they never had a million in a year.
And so the Labour Party would just, by accident, make the country so unpalatable that a lot of the migrants would just go home.
That's the one way of solving it.
Do you remember when we did the story?
The refugees who got here were all trying to go to Ireland.
Because Ireland's richer than us now.
Oh, good.
And much richer.
Which is embarrassing.
But side point is that we can become like a Balkans country that you just walk through.
Which is bad.
All we have to do is lower the standards!
Getting low enough and the Indians are like, why would I bother leaving home just to arrive back in India?
Balkans ain't that bad.
Could be worse.
Could be the Irish from 50 years.
God.
Henry says, rather than stealing everyone else's doctors and engineers and continuing some sort of horrible colonial oppression by skimming off talent from the third world, have we considered trying to train some doctors and engineers from within?
Of course we haven't.
It'd be ridiculous.
That'd be a pro-nativist policy.
Kind of that.
You can't even argue the education isn't good enough as half of the genuine doctors and engineers we in Port are trained here anyway.
Well, that's what all the students are coming for.
Yeah.
Severian Knox says, cut all welfare and immigration will all go to Germany.
Yes, but there's no way we can cut all welfare because for some reason the British public think that if they don't pay for welfare, everything dies and everyone collapses.
Well, it's specifically for refugees.
This is one of the annoying things.
I said this to a person in Afghanistan.
We have these people at the hotel there, and they're wearing nice clothes.
They get a daily allowance.
The hotel's paid for.
The food's there.
There are people probably on benefits in this country that live a worse life than those guys.
Yeah.
Like, quite a lot.
Yeah.
They get free dental, too.
We can see this from our own migrants.
I mean, for anyone who doesn't know, there must be a couple of hundred migrants in the travel lodge or whatever it is.
It's what I keep referencing.
It's so in your face in the middle of nowhere Swindon.
Yeah, and it's just around the corner.
It's literally like two minutes from where our building is.
You can go down.
Every day when you go into town to get your lunch, you go past the migrant hotel, and every day you see a bunch of migrants smoking and drinking, wearing brand new clothes.
Just 20-30 year old sort of men, just smoking and drinking, wearing nice Nike shoes and whatnot.
It's the same in Germany.
It's not the same in Serbia.
I bet it's bloody not.
They give you a camp, here's some food.
Your money.
What?
You're getting money?
But yeah, anyway.
Ewan says, the other day a massive group of illegals walked past our shop.
I counted 27 in total.
All young men, all from Africa.
Yeah, a lot of these people are from Africa.
Some of them are Middle Eastern, but From the subcontinent, but most of them are from Africa.
Colin says, I was watching a video the other day of a lady from Holland suggesting the reason the Dutch government wants compulsory purchase 600 farms is so they can build more houses on the land.
Well, I wouldn't be surprised by that at all, because that's all they're doing over here.
Must build houses, must build houses.
There is another answer.
There really is.
Lord Nerevar says: "It's much easier to justify such a ridiculous level of immigration when you see the rapidly declining birth rates of English families and the spike in abortion of the last decade or so.
However, I think Shinzo Abe had a much better plan for tackling that problem in Japan before his untimely death, one that involved encouraging Japanese families to have more children.
Notice how Japan isn't suffering from the same problems as us yet." Yeah, but Japan are.
like, in the face of a looming catastrophe when it comes to demographics, aren't they?
I don't know.
40% of their young men are virgins.
Sure, on the have-sex front, I agree.
Yeah, but on the producing children front, that's kind of necessary.
But I kind of hate the narrative of the aging population argument that people make in regards to Japan.
It's like, oh, what if everyone gets old?
It's like, yeah.
So we should import loads of Africans, what?
That's the next step you always get.
Yeah, I mean, obviously that's not the solution, but the Japanese are going to find themselves with a remarkable preponderance of old people and no one to support them, which means they're just going to die.
It's up to the Japanese.
Like all people used to do in previous theaters.
But if it's up to the Japanese to do that, like if that's as a society what they do, that's tolerable.
Like even if you were Japanese, I think you could live with that.
To have your country just completely destroyed by opening the doors and inviting the entire world for no good reason.
It's just shocking that we haven't had the Japanese perspective on this to me.
least it's their choice to not have sex which weird i suppose yes weird embarrassing choice nation of incels but okay maureen says we have five official terms here in the netherlands to describe migrants and their status one group of them the status holders recently came in the news because they they collectively resigned from their jobs as soon as they got an assigned house in one of the busiest cities in our country for almost two months all of the social housing available went straight to the migrants
while other people like single mothers and people who were forced out their former homes were passed over and told to wait social workers are currently trying to convince the migrants to keep working but most if not all of them refuse to do so because we're giving them free money Yep.
I hate it.
But on that note, we're out of time.
