Time Text
Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 2nd of January 2023.
First one of the new year.
Joined by Carl.
Hello.
It feels weird already saying that.
It's like having to say His Majesty now, it's just...
Yeah, 2023, I was used to 2022.
I don't know about you, but I'm getting bored of it.
What, changing years?
Yeah.
In the sense, the numbers are getting kind of high now.
It doesn't sound real, it sounds like sci-fi.
Well, we are in the future.
Yeah, but like the 19-something makes...
I don't know, it doesn't sound too stupid.
Sounds classic now, doesn't it?
2050 just sort of sounds like...
No, just me?
21st century is just kind of gay.
I'm not on with it.
Anyway, today we'll be discussing Scotland's map police.
See what I mean?
Yeah.
Future's terrible.
Yeah, the future is awful.
Organised anarchy and the invisible women and female privilege.
Yeah, no, you're right.
The 21st century shit.
Yeah, so it's the 20s.
What were we talking about?
So Scotland does legalize nuncing.
No, yeah, they're just decriminalizing it, aren't they?
No, yeah, de-stigmatizing it.
Well, that's the point, isn't it?
It's just what's-his-face's demoralization process.
Yuri Bezmanov.
If you haven't, otherwise we shall begin.
Alright, let's talk about Scotland's map police.
Now, to begin this segment, I don't actually think the Scottish police are trying to normalise maps, which we'll explain what those are in a minute.
What they are is really stupid.
Total and utter midwits.
Now, I would put money, I don't know whether the tests have been done, but I would put money on the fact that the average IQ in the Scottish police service is about 95.
So it's actually lower than the average population in Scotland, which is 97.
Higher than the Irish.
It is higher than the Irish, yes.
We looked this up, it was 92.
But I'm going to guess it's just they're really, really stupid, right?
And so they're in this very left-wing environment because for some reason Scottish people vote for the SNP, and the Scottish police are just...
Just kind of lost and alone, and they don't know what they're doing.
So I'm not ascribing malicious intent to the Scots on this.
They're just moronic.
Which I think is a perfectly reasonable sort of hand-on's razor excuse to not have to condemn the entire Scottish policing establishment.
I don't want to.
I mean, almost.
But, like, the...
The ideological actors who, you know, poison the police service into accepting Rotherham...
They're not stupid, that's correct.
Yeah, but like, you know, most of the police officers there are probably also just stupid.
Yes.
But I don't think it's untrue to say that this is normalising it.
Well, we'll get to it, because it is being normalised, but the Scottish police, like I said, they're not the ones trying to normalise it.
They're just stupid and taking the lead of other people.
Yeah, that's exactly it.
Well, that's the point, isn't it?
The entire philosophy comes from this extremely left-wing position, which is why, if you want to support us, go to Loicis.com, and you can listen to, if you have a silver subscription...
My Deep Think number 10, which is on Russo's Savage, because that is the, frankly, the origin point of all of these problems is the idea that, in fact, the person is not responsible for their own sort of moral tastes and the way that they are.
No, society has made them bad.
And this is why the left is constantly trying to find a way to destigmatize and then normalize people who are attracted to children.
So, we'll begin with just examples of this, because there are plenty of examples of this.
You may remember Alan Walker, the professor of...
Where were they professor of?
Sorry, I do have this written down.
Although I can't seem to find it now, though I do have it written down.
A rainbow institution?
Yes, but they were actively trying to, there was a professor who was actively trying, a trans professor, who was actively trying to destigmatize pedophilia by, as you can see by their presentation there, understanding resilient strategies among minor attracted individuals, or otherwise known as MAPs, minor attracted persons.
Or nonsense.
Yes, nonsense is the common term.
And this was something of a controversy last year, as the Daily Caller reported.
Their book, A Long Dark Shadow, Minor Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity.
I just want dignity.
Just want dignity.
Stop erasing us.
Map visibility.
I'm not going to keep erasing.
Which challenges widespread assumptions that persons who are preferentially attracted to minors, often referred to as paedophiles, are necessarily also predators or sex offenders.
They're just contingently predators and sex offenders.
The book looks at the lives of non-offending, minor-attracted persons, maps, a term that is used to describe the group because it is less stigmatizing than a word like paedophile.
But this is the old Ricky Gervais thing with scope, isn't it?
He's got this great...
It's old now, actually, but whatever you call the thing that people don't like will become the stigmatizing term.
So it's like, oh, people call them paedophiles.
Oh, I have to call them maps then.
Okay, well, they'll just call them maps, and that will take on the same meaning, idiots.
But he said, he, who knows what gender I'm talking about here, but Walker said in an interview with the Prostasia Foundation, a non-profit that focuses on child protection, along with an evidence-based approach to child sex abuse prevention, according to its website.
So we need to destigmatize these people to save children.
Hmm.
Big doubt.
Walker said that abuse should not be tolerated.
Oh, thank God.
Thank God.
It should not be tolerated, but normalized.
Argued that there is a distinction between sexual attraction and acting on that attraction.
People attracted to minors are universally maligned, and the stigma surrounding maps is the problem.
Yeah, that's the same with people who just love raping women.
I don't know.
The stigma surrounding maps is a problem.
The maps?
Yeah.
Pedos?
Yeah.
A local rapist keeps complaining that nobody likes him talking about how much he loves raping.
Am I not a man?
So they think that therapeutic intervention to get rid of maps attraction is not really an option.
I think it might be.
I think literally doing something to stop them from being attracted to children is something that we can do.
Launching them into space, but not with a child on board.
This is the one thing we didn't want to happen.
But affirming therapy can help with strategies for non-offending.
Very interesting.
So the university had to put out a statement about this.
Old Dominion University, there we go.
What I love about this statement, because they agreed that this professor is going to go on leave, right?
And they say this, quote, I want to state in the strongest terms possible that child sexual abuse is morally wrong and has no place in our society, said the president of the university, Brian O'Hempfell.
As he's writing that, why do I have to write this?
Yeah, exactly.
You shouldn't have to write that.
But...
I disagree with wicked children at this university.
I know that all universities agree.
But the one good thing about when this subject has to come up is that everyone becomes hyper-conservative about it.
And it's like, good, that's good.
That's good.
That shows that underneath all of the woke progressive BS, there is the hyper-conservative layer that knows actually no, it is wrong and it goes into the wrong place.
You know, this wasn't right.
And so the only redeeming quality is that it can actually get a bunch of left-wing professors to admit that they think that child sexual abuse is morally wrong.
Or they're lying to us, of course.
This professor was, of course, they weren't fired, but they agreed to resign.
Which is really sus, isn't it?
It's like, why don't you fire them then?
Yeah, I don't...
No, no, we can't fire them, but they can agree to resign.
I don't want to go through any kind of, like, slight discomfort, and maybe path of resistance in the slightest to get rid of a pedo.
I don't have any balls.
Well, we don't know that person's a pedo.
They just, for some reason, craft their entire academic career around defending pedophiles.
I don't know why.
Anyway, the...
Alan Walker was hired by the John Hopkins Center.
Oh, is he?
Yeah.
Okay.
He, she, who knows.
Well, hang on.
So the one who's like, you know, I want to talk about whether or not we should legalize raping kids.
John Hopkins.
No, no, no.
They didn't say they want to legalize raping kids.
Let's be fair.
They just said they wanted to de-stigmatize pedophilia.
I don't know why.
Not to legalize it, of course.
Not to legalize it.
No, that's not the first step on the road to legalization or anything.
It's just, you know, I don't even know what their argument is, actually.
I don't really want to know.
But no, Walker is a leader in the field of perpetration prevention research, which is essential for developing a comprehensive public health approach to addressing child sexual abuse and effective prevention programs.
Trust me, bro.
Anyway, moving on.
There is a professor who will simply take the mask off, which is Dr.
James Cantor, who will say, look, you can see here...
Being gay was also stigmatized once.
That's why I think P and all the other stigmatized sexualities people are born with, as if people are born with their sexualities.
Do we know this?
Do we know that they're not habituated into them, right?
But it does belong in GLBT2QA+. What the hell has happened there?
Yeah, who knows.
But all else is hypocrisy.
Allying with the already popular isn't liberalism.
Right, there we go.
Thank you, Dr.
Cantor, for taking the mask off and saying, look, we are for stigmatized sexualities regardless of the content of the sexuality.
Regardless of the moral questions.
Regardless of the question of consent.
Because it was all predicated on two people who are adults consenting.
Who cares?
Yeah, okay, I totally agree.
But now you've got one person who can't consent.
Okay, but we need to add the peon to the LGBTQ. Gay people were stigmatized once, and so was having sex with horses.
Exactly.
So what we must do is stand with the horse community.
It's not the question of consent.
It's not the question of righteousness.
It's the question of who is being stigmatized.
All forms of sex, regardless of how criminal.
Well, that's the thing.
Eventually, does it get to the rapist community?
They're just stigmatized.
It is a fantasy.
I mean, that is a thing.
I'm just saying it gets...
You know, he is right that the maps are a persecuted and stigmatized group.
And of course, the left's natural gravitation towards, well, if they're being persecuted, it must be society's fault.
That they're being persecuted.
They were just born this way.
It's like, I'm not sure that's true.
But this is the point.
I'm not sure that someone is inherently born a paedophile.
I think that this is a product of a certain kind of upbringing.
But that's something I won't go into now, right?
So, anyway, you can find...
Well, it's just...
It's a long conversation.
The first comment.
Don't read it.
Can't read it.
Can't read that out loud.
And I think officially we have to disavow that.
Yes.
But again, he doesn't.
He's just being honest about where LGBTQ is going.
Because it does go in this direction.
And you can do a search on Google Scholar to find that this is not in any way unusual.
This is just Google Scholar search for minor attracted persons.
But just scroll down there, John.
Cited by 9, cited by 9, cited by 13, cited by 20 papers.
Yeah.
There's loads of these.
This is only page 1.
And then they've got their peers citing them as well.
Yeah.
And so, moving on to the woke British police, how does this dovetail together?
Well, as you're constantly showing, they are LGBTQ allies.
They're morons.
Yeah, I think you've got them in it.
Yes.
I mean, this video is actually fantastic.
Like, you can clearly tell she doesn't know what she's doing.
Yes.
And then you can also count the number of rainbows.
Yes.
One, two, three, four, five, six...
I think six?
There's one in the crown at the back.
Ah, crown seven.
All right, there we are.
Literally, there's a rainbow in the crown at the back.
God.
So, yes, the British police are not terribly academic, shall we say, right?
And they're very in favour of intersectionality.
We go to the next one.
They've got nice furry pride worldwide.
Hello, police force.
Let's go to the next one, which is just policing with pride.
They're very LGBTQ friendly.
In fact, they'll beat you if you're not.
We'll go to the next one.
You can see they're saluting the pride flag.
Six police here?
Raising the...
The racial pride flag.
Not even the conservative pride flag.
And then you've got people stood behind it.
You see it's on their chest as well.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's deeply embarrassing.
But so if we take these two lines of thoughts, you've got the left who will admit, yes, we need to eventually put P on the end of LGBTQ.
And the police are like, yes, we're fully in favor of LGBTQ.
You can see how this will eventually intersect with police in Scotland using the term map.
This was inevitable.
I don't think it's even stoppable.
No.
Please continue, because the thing is, like, minoritarian empire, or society, or whatever the hell we're living in, like, they will continue pushing this gate.
If it doesn't get pushed back this time, and becomes the common parlance, the nomenclature of the police, it will by 10 years.
You're bothered about it now, because it's newsworthy, but when they've done this enough times that it's no longer newsworthy, it'll just carry on.
I do love the TERF accounts who keep retweeting whatever, just like the NHS mentions people with vaginas or people with penises or some crap like that.
What's that mean?
It's like, this isn't normal.
Remember, this isn't normal.
Yes.
It's like, yeah.
So anyway, a controversial move to label paedophiles as minor attractive people as a top-level report has been defended by Police Scotland.
Okay, they actually didn't.
They kind of defended it.
Again, I want to be charitable because it's such a gross subject, right?
But the police force are like, oh yeah, it wasn't our fault.
It was the EU. It's like, I thought Brexit meant Brexit, mate.
Scholars are like, we're rejoining.
Why?
Because we want to do some things.
Don't ask what.
I say police, Scotland.
Chief Constable Ian Livingston's annual year-end report refers to child abusers as minor-retracted people.
This move comes with wider concerns of campaigners over what they say is attempts to rebrand pedophilia as a harmless sexual preference.
I feel like this is the Babylonian.
You know, the official logo, the layout professional, all that.
Go back, John.
Go back.
We're not to there yet.
Because I want to explore this a little bit more, right?
So, a spokesman for the force stressed that MAPS is not a term they routinely use to describe child abusers.
Only when you're not listening.
In the report, it had to be understood in its context.
And I agree, context is important.
So, it is.
In what context is this going to be?
Exactly, right?
So, he explained that, no, the reference to MAPS was in relation to the force's engagement with the European Union's Horizon Europe project, Prevention of Child Sex Exploitation.
So, it's from the EU. That doesn't help at all.
Exactly.
I thought we had left the EU. Brexit meant no nonsense from the EU. But even then, like, whatever, you've still got some layovers in policing across the continent, right?
And the EU side of the debate turns up with something trying to, you know, using language, normalising nonsense.
Map pride, yeah.
And Police Scotland, what you should do at the negotiation table is, bye.
They did kind of do that in their defence, right?
But the report states the project's main agenda is to develop an understanding and approach to avoid the victimisation of children by engaging minor attracted people and providing them with the necessary support, treatment and guidance to help prevent criminal activities.
Of course they're using EU woke academic language, but of course they're adopting the European perspective that society is what makes you wrong.
That's not how we do it in Britain.
In Britain, we have the total opposite position.
Actually, society isn't so bad, and bad people are responsible for their own badness.
That's how we view the world.
That's why we put them in prison.
Yes.
Not re-education.
Exactly.
That's why people like Foucault were arguing that, in fact, prisons are the last bastion of oppression.
And then the average Englishman was like, yeah, that's a good thing.
That's kind of the point, dummy.
And then he went off to Tunisia for a while, for no reason we can talk about.
Anyway, a police spokesman said, I know.
I don't buy it.
Oh, I believe that it's definitely more commonly used on the continent.
Oh, yeah.
I don't buy that they don't use the term.
Like, I'm willing to put a bounty on people in the Police Scotland.
Just go find some documents using it and release them to the public.
I wonder how many of Police Scotland voted Remain.
I'm just saying.
This is never true.
Yeah, I agree.
It's probably the case.
But in September, police representatives successfully lobbied for the map term not to be used by the consortium.
But no, fair enough.
But you shouldn't be using any of their terms at all, because as James Cantor has pointed out to us, oh no, the P is inevitable.
LGBTQP. This is where this goes.
Plus, exactly.
Don't forget bestiality.
Who knows what brave new frontiers of liberation...
Trying to erase their existence.
Are you trying to commit bestiality genocide, Carl?
I'm definitely trying to erase bestiality.
I don't think that's something that should be normalized.
Sorry, Shank.
That was such a weird hill to die on.
Yeah, I don't know why he did that.
But again, it was years ago.
He was just being edgy online.
Fair enough.
I know, but he's never going to get over it.
No.
But be on notice that you shouldn't be using their terms at all, though.
Right?
That's what I'm trying to say.
If the P on LGBT was too much, why are the other ones okay?
You know?
We have our own terminology.
What the hell do these have to do with each other as well?
Well, yeah, obviously, but like, you know, the entire thing is a kind of villainous way of reframing what the world is actually like from our perspective into a way of saying that, look, no one is responsible for anything that they do.
That's what it ultimately boils down to.
The very bedrock of this is no...
The world around them is wrong.
That person did nothing wrong.
It's like, no, sorry, that person did do something wrong.
They made a conscious choice to commit a crime or to cultivate a particular habit or something like that.
That's how I think of this.
And so we shouldn't be using their terms at all.
And so maybe Police Scotland can start winding all of that back.
Because again, it's not like we don't have terms for the things they're trying to describe.
Just use our terms, not theirs.
Anyway, I love this.
The term MAP is contentious because child abusers are trying to escape the stigma attached to paedophilia and maintain they should be regarded as a niche group alongside the LGBT community.
That's true.
The burglar community as well, I think, are trying to remove the stigma from their livelihood.
I think it's redistribution officers.
Honestly, I would much rather destigmatize burglary than this.
That's true as well.
We're going to go through the list.
I think I think of a few...
Police Scotland were like, okay, we'll just call them burglars.
But the maps...
Where are your priorities?
I do love it.
You ever watch Life on Mars?
No.
TV series.
So there's a guy who goes back.
He's in London in the 2000s.
He's born.
It's all bureaucratic BS. Policery nonsense.
Anyway, and then he travels back and he's in, I think it's, I can't remember now, some northern place where it's the 1960s or 70s.
Yeah.
And the police is just so much better.
I bet it is.
I mean, one of the main things that struck me is the gov in charge of the station in their unit.
He calls everyone, they lock up villains.
True.
True.
They would never do that now, of course.
It's just suspect, and it's all sanitized language.
John's like, burglars and how pap, property-attracted people.
Well, no, I'm a property-attracted person.
I'm just not a thief.
Anyway.
Learn more and more about you.
Well, I like my property.
Anyway.
I didn't know you were part of the alphabet community.
Yeah, to your point, I'm not.
Anyway, the police in Scotland put out a statement about this.
As you feel they have to, obviously.
They basically reiterate what was said in that article.
We don't use that term to describe any type of offender and suggestion, otherwise completely misrepresents our position.
You should go further on this.
I'm just reminded of the ending of Life on Mars.
Spoilers.
He goes back to the future and then just decides to kill himself.
Don't know why he did that.
But they, again, just like the university, they're like, our view on the term is entirely unacceptable in describing either someone involved against offending his children or his indecent thoughts towards him.
Great.
Great.
That's good.
But why do you think that?
Slur words.
Well, that's...
exactly.
Why?
Like, I know why I think it's bad, but tell me why you think it's bad, because actually, I think you maybe don't think it's so bad, you know?
Actually, if you were to explain why, I think you'd just say, oh, everyone's annoyed, right, you know, we think that's terrible.
Why?
Why do you think it's terrible?
I can tell you why I think it's terrible, but I'm not going to, because I want to hear why you think it's terrible, because actually, I think you've just been caught, you know?
There's a part of me that is deeply suspicious, and it's like, yeah, well, they use this all the time on the continent, Yeah, they do.
I mean, we've covered this many a time, how on the continent they have a weird lack of respect for the sanctity of children.
The latest one is A Map's Tale.
What?
A new play titled A Map's Tale will premiere in, where do you think?
Scotland?
Germany.
I, no.
What city in Germany?
Berlin.
Yes, that's right!
Oh, really?
Why?
What a surprise!
Again, I just love how literally a hundred year cycle is what the cycle of the West is, right?
It's the cycle of modernity.
The Germans don't learn.
Every hundred years, in the 20s, it gets degenerate, and then bad things happen in the 30s and 40s.
The 1820s.
Well, this is pre-modern.
The 20th century onwards.
It's going to be the cycle of modernity, man, I'm telling you, right?
So this is premiering in February at Berlin's Theatre, I can't pronounce it, that will tell the tale of Adam, a paedophile, in the story that the creators hope will expose the, quote, gross oversimplifications and criminal associations that currently shape our perception of all maps.
I remember when we were speaking with Chris Williamson after a podcast we were having dinner he said one of the most extreme things he ever did for a podcast he sat across from someone from one of these groups who did a documentary about them he wasn't a member of the group but he did a documentary about them and he was telling us about like oh but it's really complex because you have a situation where all these people are now meeting but it's good therapy but then of course they meet each other and then oh I wonder what happens then yeah and he said the worst example was there was a guy and a girl who met through the group and then ended up getting married and then wanting to have kids Do you remember that?
Not a fan, but that sounds terrible.
The guy who was doing the documentary was like, what do you do, you know?
And it's like, yeah, I don't know.
What?
A male and female adult paedophile get together, fall in love, and want to have children.
I think sterilization is probably in order.
But if they're in love with each other, are they?
I don't know.
Maybe it's like bisexuals or something.
Okay, so anyway...
I just mean multiple attractions, that's what I mean by that.
This is the problem with left-wing philosophy.
Who knows where it goes, right?
But yeah, so this is not uncommon on the continent, apparently.
It's just the return to the Weimar years, as far as I can see, and the Scots are like, yeah, we wish we were part of the EU. What, the map pride EU? Oh no, not that EU. Oh yeah...
Which EU were you thinking of?
The dumb Brexiters left the EU, isn't it great?
Anyway, Matt Pry time.
As I said, Brexit means no nonsense, which means no EU. I didn't realize it was so central.
Well, it is.
It's obviously central now.
But anyway, that's that.
God's sakes.
The North FC meme was more real than we thought.
It's so good, man.
It's so true.
I love the thing.
Oh, it's an oversimplification.
Okay.
I don't care.
I'm okay with that.
Let's talk about organized anarchy, which is what I'm starting to think of how this country is being run.
I tell you, that's optimistic, isn't it?
Well, Black Pitch and Speak, I think, was the first person to make this term.
I can't remember which term he used, but it's something like that.
Which is essentially that you organize absolute chaos on a scale, on a petty level, like in your day-to-day life.
I mean, just things just go wrong.
There's nothing you can do about it.
And at the same time, the structure is so rigid, you can never really change anything.
Isn't this commonly called anarcho-tyranny?
There we are.
That's the term you use.
And I'm going to start it off just with plugging debate might as well be dead on lotuses.com because that is the state of debate not just in regards to what we're going to talk about but pretty much everything in this country.
I did enjoy this one as well.
It's so irritating to see that it doesn't seem to be the case in any high institution.
You can actually have an open debate about a topic and move opinion or advance the civilization, even a modicum, is completely worthless.
Have you ever done programming?
Yeah.
And it's exactly the same.
So, I mean, it's literal.
I mean, how are the NPCs?
It is exactly the same as programming a computer.
It's like, sorry, this is an incompatible variable or syntax error or something, and the entire thing just stops.
That's how they reason.
Diversity might not be as strengthened.
Yeah, no, sorry.
That's, you know, bringing up an error message.
I can't do anything with this.
The entire program's crashed.
Yeah, 100%.
Every time.
And we'll start off with what the heck I'm talking about, which is the C people, where I'm going to start.
And you can see here, this is the newest data, because it's the end of the year, folks.
So we get an updated list.
So if you scroll down on this, there's a little graph.
Shows in 2018, there were about 300 people.
Game by C. I remember reporting...
300 too many.
Yeah, I remember reporting at the time of that.
And in 2019, we were like, oh, that's a problem.
So there's so much to do something about it, so it gets bad.
And then by 2022, it's 45,000.
It's four times more in 2020.
Yes.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
I think it's up 150-fold since 2019 or something like that.
Sorry, since 2018.
There you are.
And with projections, by 2030, we shall have 131,000 people a year crossing in little boats, which will all go swimmingly.
I've got a really sore throat, by the way, for anyone who's curious.
And if we go forward, we'll go to the board of director.
The worst of throats.
Yeah, no, it really is.
My mum came to visit and she had a really bad throat infection and I apparently picked it up.
So yeah, I know.
That's better.
That's not going to work.
I need like three feet of distance.
I'm not going to wear a mask either.
Anyway, well, I wouldn't work, Your Honor.
But the thing is, this is the former director general of Border Force who came out and was just like, well, we haven't peaked.
Oh, really?
That's good news.
Oh.
It's going to get worse.
So 45,000 illegals a year is not the peak of it.
In little crappy boats.
Like, that's not taking into account the people who come on the lorries, remember?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nor is that taking into account people who come here on legal visas and then just overstay.
Yeah.
Because that's a huge thing.
That's not taking into account just the million legals.
No, no, it certainly isn't.
And if you go to the next one here, we have the Telegraph, who report that it's a 150-fold increase over the last four years.
Fantastic.
They say, last year, we also saw the highest number of people making the crossings in a single day.
Oh, fantastic.
A hundred and...
Sorry.
We're breaking records.
Not 100.
1,295 on a single day, which beat the previous record of 1,185.
I'm glad the Border Force went out, collected them, and brought them back.
1,300 people a day turning up.
Just think about that.
Think about housing that many people, but how quickly can you build a home?
Well, not very quickly, but we do have lots of hotels that we're paying for to stay in.
One of the problems we've discovered is that it might be the case that Border First are in our unit.
You know, I kept warning that they might be corrupt or something.
Well, it turns out one of them, at least one of them, is an illegal immigrant.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Who guards your country's borders?
Well, illegal immigrants, obviously.
Indeed.
These illegal immigrants guarding the country are letting in all the illegal immigrants.
Don't know why.
Some of them don't have a respect for the law or something.
How does an illegal immigrant end up working on the UK Border Force?
Yeah, I was just...
No, but this is like Monty Python's level of ridiculous.
Speaking to the sun, a source said...
What about you?
Oh, I came in from Syria, mate.
What about you?
Oh, I'm from Iraq.
Is there anyone here who's a native Brit on the Border Force?
It's like some white guy goes for an interview and they're just like, are you British?
Nah, mate, I'm Ukrainian.
Oh, come on in.
I actually want numbers now.
Yeah, so this was following a small investigation.
I don't know if they've done a wider one into the whole Border Force, but I'd love to find out how many are illegal immigrants, because that would be funny.
I mean, yeah, it's a concern.
A source from Border Force says, allowing alleged illegal immigrants to infiltrate the ranks of your border security is pretty embarrassing.
Yeah, just a tad.
What?
That's a great way of framing, I suppose, yeah.
It's pretty embarrassing.
Mildly embarrassing.
Whoopsie daisies.
We at the prison service are horrified to find out that a third of prison officers are actually murderers and rapists.
They're actually inmates.
I think that's a brass eye sketch.
It probably is.
Running an international airport in the prison.
Anyway, the man, believed to be in his 30s, is accused of lying about his country of origin and paperwork to stay in the UK. He is believed to have arrived in the UK about 20 years ago from the Balkans.
So he's some Bosnian.
No, is he Albanian?
The Albanians are running the UK border force now.
But the thing, if you're in his 30s and he was here 20 years ago, I mean, what was he, like, 18 when he came here?
50 or something?
Yeah, but...
But it's more the point of, like, good response time, lads.
But this is why the whole, like, oh, we'll outsource everything we do to immigrants.
Yeah.
Really?
Are there some things maybe we shouldn't?
We'll get back to that as well.
Oh, okay.
It's more Monty Python than you think.
But just the thing there of, like, the response time is apparently 20 years to catch a legal immigrant.
So in 20 years' time, there's going to be a lot of arrests.
In 20 years' time, that guy will eventually arrive in Rwanda.
Three other people.
To collect his fucking pension.
Three other Border Force officers have been let go for stealing as well.
Oh, yeah.
This thing, where they happened to find one of them was illegal.
Oh.
Don't know why.
Yeah, okay.
And then if you go to the UK website, we'll get a nice fresh correction, yeah, saying that three people were let go on conspiracy to steal things from the office.
So Romanians, presumably, anyway.
My mother used to work in Romanians, and they had cameras everywhere as a result of that.
Some guys, they took like a nut a day, like a small piece, dismantled a whole shower, and took the whole shower home!
Just playing the long game, Callum.
Yeah, one day the shower was broken, and then it just got more and more disappearing.
Eventually, one of the Romanians was bragging about his new shower.
Anyway, so, if you go to the UK website...
I'm not joking, sorry, Romanians.
B will confirm.
The UK website happens to tell us about the fact that this is also a crime, of course.
Oh, really?
Yeah, you can face up to four years in jail...
The could.
Big emphasis on the could there.
And be removed to a safe country if you apply it legally.
Could happen.
Things that could happen.
I suppose hypothetically that is possible, yes.
Hitler will rise from the grave and...
Hitler will return from Argentina, hypothetically.
Yeah.
They also say from the 1st of January 2022, so this is a New Year's resolution from the British government, which is quite funny.
You will be considered for relocation to Rwanda if you make an illegal journey to the UK and have travelled through a connection of a safe country.
People relocated to Rwanda will have their asylum claim processed there.
Rwanda will have full responsibility for them.
There is no limit to the number of people who will be sent to Rwanda, say the British government.
There is also no minimum.
No, there certainly isn't.
Haven't four or something gone?
I don't know.
I'm sure that I saw a thing the other day that was like four people have eventually been sent to Rwanda.
Oh, thank Christ.
Yeah, exactly.
Bravo, British government.
Hang on, was it the Border Force guy?
And the three guys who were stealing.
I don't know.
It was literally one or two.
It was a very small number.
It just managed to be sent there.
And it's like, oh, brilliant.
Well, I'm sure they're having fun at this time.
At this rate, it's literally going to be in like a thousand years' time before the rest of them have been deported.
But we'll go to the cost of this as well.
Because I remember, it's now been legalised.
This policy is going ahead.
I wouldn't be excited if it actually happens.
Can you even imagine?
I have no hope, obviously.
But the numbers are embarrassing as well.
There's this BBC article pissing on the idea of being like, oh my god, have you seen how much it'll cost?
Good.
You want to guess?
How much per Muppet?
I don't know.
Is it more than putting them up in four-star hotels?
It's £13,000 per Muppet.
So it's way cheaper than putting them up in hotels?
Yeah, £600 to deport everyone this year who arrived.
Okay.
If you go to the next one, though, we're spending £2.3 billion on hotels alone.
Yeah.
That's before you get to all the other involvement costs.
Well, there we go.
Just the hotels.
Like, even if there were no concerns about the moral or legal status of people just breaking into the country, surely eventually...
How does £1.8 billion sell?
Exactly.
When it comes to the final calculation, surely the economists are like, look...
It's just costing us money.
GDP line go up.
Me, me, Tory.
Me...
Exactly.
Me neolib.
Me not understand moral.
Exactly.
If you've got no concern for morality or the country at large or anything like that, surely it's just going to cost you more.
Well, let's have a look at the lovely people because yet another one of these lovely individuals, these doctors and lawyers, all...
Future astronauts.
Britain's space program right there.
I'm uploading more of their TikToks.
I love how, yeah, this person says, you can see the RNLI in the background, who are totally out there just saving lives, not facilitating illegal immigration.
Cool.
Anyway, let's play this clip of just this nice guy and his nice friends.
He celebrates.
You okay?
As he says.
Fantastic.
I look forward to him treating patients.
I know the NHS is starved for such people.
I bet he's just like, look, I've been waiting my whole life just to go to a nice tea room in Devon.
No, because the thing is...
You put the cream on before the jam.
Everyone knows that.
This is what I love about The Modern World, though, is things like this.
It's because everyone films everything they do and put it online, which means there are no more stories that are told in which you have to just believe the person, because you can just go and check it out.
Don't need reporters anymore.
No, it's the modern thing that I love about war as well, which is that all the Ukrainians and Russians are literally filming everything they do so you can see it in real time, which is just really funny.
Is that him actually in London now?
This is him!
Oh.
As you can see there.
You can see in the left there.
Nice new clothes.
Who paid for them?
He's in New York.
Sorry, New Year's in London, right next to London Eye there, enjoying the fireworks.
I tell you what, this is why I keep saying adventurers, man.
These are obviously adventurers.
You're using the wrong term.
He doesn't use that word.
In all of his TikToks, he uses the word explorer.
Really?
Yeah, not kidding.
I knew it!
I totally called this!
He literally calls himself like a Sudanese celebrity.
Like, that's the hashtag.
Sudanese celebrity, explorer, and then hashtags of where he's been.
I totally called this, didn't I? Yeah.
Yeah, I've actually found the dude that you're envisioning.
I knew it!
It's the real guy.
I totally knew it!
Give it a quick scroll, John, just so you can see the length of TikToks.
We're going to show some of the specific ones in a bit, but he films everything, puts it up.
There's nothing hidden.
Of course.
Why would there be?
Half the thing is just like hashtag explorer.
Yeah.
Because that's all he's doing.
Yeah.
If we go to the next one here, the next link, then we can see that he was hanging out with the fireworks, enjoying himself.
There you have that.
You don't have to pay to go see the fireworks in London.
Because that's how they pay for the fireworks.
Yeah, go on.
Do you think he paid?
No.
He didn't pay to get into the country.
Coincidentally, there was some footage that emerged from the fireworks in London, as you can see here.
Youths, as Miles Trun calls them.
Just youths, very British youths.
I can tell, they all look very British.
Syrian and Sudanese complexions.
Storming in past the security.
You know how British...
That guy looked Irish.
Do you remember when Jacob Rees-Mogg went to an event and there was Antifa who was screaming at me?
He just walked up to them and spoke to them because he knew he wasn't going to get in pain.
It's not going to happen.
Yeah, a British youth is not as similar to these folks.
Anyway, yeah.
I would be utterly appalled if it turned out this bloke had been part of that group that broke in.
Well, how could you cast aspersions on The fine character of a guy who broke into our country.
He would never break into the celebrations of the London Eye.
That would be beyond the pale.
Let's go and check out his hotel room.
Oh, God.
Because there's that as well.
He's dancing to crappy rap music in all of these, in case you're wondering.
And they're all the same and crap.
We've paid for all of this, haven't we?
Yeah, hotel room looks fine to me.
And the clothes.
You have to share it with one other person.
Oh no.
Hell, look at the TV. That's nice.
Yeah.
He's got some other ones where he shows off in his hotel room in France.
I don't know if I added them, but the hotel ones are very nice in France too.
They're actually better than ours, which is weird.
Anyway, this is him in Lidl with his balaclava on.
Yeah, normal.
I know when I do this.
I go to Lidl, wear my balaclava.
I actually went to Lidl the other day.
Balaclava-driven?
Not with a balaclava.
Weird.
What a weirdo you are.
I know.
I don't know why I didn't have a balaclava.
He also has an awful lot, as you noted, of new clothes and chains and rings, etc.
Watches.
Yeah, they get given, I think it's like £40 a week.
They get basically free food and free housing, free dental, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But £40 a week doesn't really buy you that many clothes.
What I imagine he's doing is a payment plan, right?
I think he works in pharmaceutical work.
Oh, right.
That's going to be my guess.
That would explain a lot, actually.
Wild guess.
Don't know.
No idea.
But we could also track his journey through TikTok.
Oh, okay.
Which is good fun.
We'll enjoy that.
If you go to the next one here, you can see this is in Italy, where he's dancing and celebrating to music in here.
The next one here, he's in France, and the song he's celebrating is I'm a Criminal...
Which is a beautiful French rap song.
Yeah.
In which it starts with, I'm a criminal and I know it.
And he dances to that.
Right, okay.
Beautiful chap.
Yeah.
And the next one is just him and Libya slash Chad showing off that, you know, again, new threads, new rings, new chains, new shoes.
And every one of his TikToks, he seems to have something new.
Yeah, really makes you wonder.
He seems to have skipped leg day as well.
Yeah, the hashtags in here being, I'm a Sudanese celebrity explorer.
Yep.
And that's when he's not posting Sudanese nationalism.
I'm so right about this.
I wish to just be deporting them on site.
Yeah, you were literally just dealing with explorers.
Young adventurers, which is not anything new, but normally you just use the military to keep them out.
And if we go to the next one here, there's like some Sudanese nationalism from him where he's just placing Sudanese flags.
Sudan, greatest country on earth.
Yeah, unironically, that actually is this place.
It's just every fucking time.
They're just rings, man.
Yeah, they're crap and fake.
Yeah, obviously.
But that's, you know, drug dealers.
Sudan number one.
Yeah, Sudan number one.
I saw a bunch of his old posts as well, but he seems to be living fine in Sudan.
Of course he was.
Funnily enough, he wasn't part of South Sudan in the Civil War.
He sat there with his phone and his mates.
You can't go out partying every night because you don't have that kind of money.
But Crimea River?
You're not in rural Afghanistan or South Sudan Civil War?
Not my problem in any way, shape, or form.
Don't care.
It is what it is, which is tourism.
It's tourism.
Having fun.
Having a laugh.
Probably is a laugh, to be honest.
Yeah, I don't even blame him.
Yeah, I'm not even angry at him.
I'm angry at our government for allowing this to happen.
At every level.
I mean, in Chad, Libya, Italy, France.
And it would be sort of funny if no one in these countries provided the hotels, etc.
Yeah, if it didn't cost us anything, I wouldn't be that angry about it.
Weird homeless man.
Yeah, I'd be annoyed, but it wouldn't be like, okay, fine, you know.
You're spending 2.3 billion on this.
And if it wasn't for the stupid left-wing narrative as well, it's like, oh, look at these poor refugees fleeing war, fleeing policy, and going for a laugh.
Yes, look at all those clothes.
I'm not even angry at him.
Yeah, anyway, let's go to the Circo, because I saw some people, this channel's great, she just goes up to the different hotels and tries to have a word with them.
We're not going to play it, but the funniest thing is just everyone involved from Circo, the company that's managing this, can't speak English properly.
Again, Monty Python-esque.
They control the borders, they control the hotels.
Yeah.
Like, this lady here is like, it's private, it's private, you can't film.
And then the other guy is like, show me a card.
You have press, you show me a card.
It's like, what is going on?
What on earth is going on, man?
Okay.
The people running the border are foreigners.
The people running the hotels are foreigners.
People in the hotels are foreigners.
Are there any English people in England?
I have no idea.
I can't see it on video.
Yeah, I never see it on TV. No.
I thought I'd let this off just for a laugh to try and, you know, lighten the mood in the organised tyranny in which we live, which is average British opinion on the matter.
Oh, yeah.
We still call up to LBC, and a local man did, and a local man says, I would like to put great white sharks in the channel.
Ha!
Average opinion at this point, just because of the level of disgust.
But again, nothing seems to be done, and can be done, because we just lived in some kind of anarcho-tyranny, as Black Pigeon correctly, I think, identified our lives.
Anyway, it's because of the invisible women.
Yeah, no, that's just really annoying.
But I'm so glad to be totally vindicated on my judgement about these people.
I knew it.
When I found this TikTok ago, I was like, oh, Cole's gonna like that.
Anyway, let's talk about how women grow older and become invisible.
I'm not even joking.
You mean sexually attractive?
I mean, invisible to men.
So, before we begin, go and check out my conservative definition of what a woman is, because I think this is all predicated on the very root of womanhood, which is, of course, the ability to conceive and bear children.
And as a famous Labour MP put it, once she became infertile, she felt like less of a woman.
And I think that's fair.
I think as a man...
Same with men.
Exactly.
If you couldn't get an erection, you'd definitely feel like less of a man, because that is the kind of essential characteristic of men and women.
But also your farm time work.
Exactly.
Yep.
Which is why Dank was so quick to point out his...
I have seen him.
Yeah, I know.
But anyway, so let's begin with the World Economic Forum.
Why do so many older women become invisible?
Now, the World Economic Forum...
Why is this an economic question?
Well, that's...
That's exactly it, right?
This was in 2015.
They published this.
But they begin with this.
We're an economic group.
Yeah.
World Economic Forum.
Where are the women?
Why are they invisible?
It's like, sorry, I went here for economics.
I'm here to talk about vaccines and sex.
Yeah.
There's literally nothing about economics in the world.
Where's my economics professor again?
But they say in a world of data-driven policies, there is one group in society that barely registers and is at risk of missing out on crucial resources and services, according to researchers, older women.
It's not really the complaint, right?
They say much international data, including metrics on health and employment assets and domestic violence, seems to back up the anecdotal view that women become invisible in middle age.
That's not what the anecdotal view is telling you.
But you literally can't understand that there might be something that isn't quantifiable in data that the women are responding to here.
What do they mean they're losing out on resources?
Okay.
Benefits that old women should receive for being old women, is what they're saying, maybe.
But the point is, like, the anecdotal view is that women become invisible.
That's true.
There are lots of women who will say this, and we'll get into them in a second.
But they're like, yeah, but so the data, including metrics on health, employment, blah, blah, blah, blah.
It's like, no, no, no, no.
That's not what they're talking about.
But you are so monomaniacal in your view of the world.
You're like, well, look at all this data we have on women's employment in their 50s.
Hello, Bugman.
Yeah, exactly.
Hello, Bugman, right?
The Bugman running the WF. That's all they can think about, right?
And they carry on with all this, but, you know, there's no point going into it because they literally can't understand what is being said by these women when they say they become invisible, right?
So let's go to this next one that I found in the Irish Times by a lady who was like, women become invisible to men as we age.
So what?
Great question.
I always hate this stuff.
Regardless of the article, it doesn't matter.
No, no, no.
You could say, well, they're responding to a conversation that's going on, and you can say, well, look, that's just irrelevant.
It doesn't matter.
And that's why they've had to write this.
And that's kind of the framework.
It's more like when I see articles that are like, people say I'm ugly.
So what?
Doesn't matter.
Anyway, here's 500 words.
A press release turned up in my inbox the other morning, loudly gasping that as soon as we reach the age of 50, women become invisible to the opposite sex.
The email, which was disseminated by data commissioned by a herbal remedies company, went on to say that a survey of 2,000 women revealed that once they reached just over 50, women feel that they get ignored by men and don't get the level of attention they had before.
Uh, yeah, and what is your problem with that exactly?
Well, the problem with that is that much of women's interaction in society is kind of predicated on the idea that men...
Desire them.
And once you've had that taken away from you, maybe you long to be desired.
Who doesn't want to be desired?
Who doesn't want to be desired?
It's kind of funny.
It's like the opposite situation for men.
Yeah.
Like when you're very young and...
No one cares about you at all.
The women don't care.
Why would they?
You've got nothing.
Yeah.
You're a nobody.
Fantastic news!
So she's like, look, I would have framed it like this.
Fantastic news.
A survey has revealed that if you're 50 plus and female, it's all over.
At last, it's finished.
Never again will you have to endure some fool you've never met before.
Assuming that as you're sitting in a bar alone with your book or on a park bench with your thoughts or in a dark cinema with just your favorite shoes for company, don't know what that means, you're only waiting for him, that prince among men, to finish his pint at Justice Crotch before taking him up on his handsome, unasked for offer to shag him blind.
And she's like, well, not all men operate with this, obviously, but, you know, it could have been worse, couldn't it?
Aren't you tired of being harassed by men who find you desirable your whole life?
And a lot of her friends are like, no.
I have been privy to conversations where women bemoan a perceived lessening of their allure.
These days when I'm trying to order, I get ignored by barmen, a friend told me recently.
We'll go to a different bar then, I replied.
But the barman there is going to ignore her too.
Because she's not a young, attractive woman anymore.
But what the friend is saying is that there's a kind of privilege that comes by being a young woman.
There's a kind of privilege of being attractive.
Yes.
That's a universal truth as well.
That is true.
But for women, there's a kind of privilege that young, attractive women, and just young women generally, fertile women, basically, she's saying, enjoy that they lose when they hit the menopause, which is a kind of subconscious attention that men give them.
That's what she's saying.
Right.
And they're all saying this, in fact.
This makes me laugh because I don't know if you remember.
I think we did cover an article once where this woman was like, men, stop paying attention to me because she was getting older.
And then what she discovered is if she wears pigtails and braids her hair, all of a sudden the attention comes back.
I don't remember that one offhand.
It was really funny because she was like, I can't wear pigtails anymore because I'm getting too much attention again.
Oh, I do.
It's good advice for these ladies, right?
So the survey found that basically a lot of these women felt under confidence, citing graying hair, the need to wear glasses, and a general feeling that their appearance was deteriorating as their reasons for the lack of self-esteem.
And she was like, sadly and maddeningly, it also concluded that some middle-aged women feel intimidated by the presence of more youthful females at social events, with six out of ten respondents believing that the world is geared towards younger women.
Why only six?
Yes.
Thank you.
Sorry, who doesn't feel...
Most of the older women will like, yeah, the world is geared towards younger women.
This is interesting, isn't it?
How is this a shock?
I don't...
The world is not geared towards matronly women or grandmothers.
What?
You weren't complaining about that when you were in your 20s, were you?
I just don't get how people don't understand.
Like, yes, being in a room where someone's more attractive than you is...
But you're less attractive person in the room.
But not even necessarily more attractive, more youthful, right?
A woman's power is all contained in her youth, and she loses it as her life goes on, which is something that this should have been taught to young women generally, and now these women are hitting 50.
They're like, this thing I've always had, guys aren't paying attention to me.
Yeah, and you should have been prepared for that, and you're not prepared for that.
So then we go to the...
So the first thing is, you know, it doesn't matter, or it's not happening.
But then it's...
But then we get to...
Stage one.
Yeah, stage one, it doesn't matter.
Stage two, it's not true.
It's not true that women are invisible.
As this article states, this new stupid thing is called the age of invisibility, the age at which women disappear from the male view.
At 45, as decreed by boffins who don't seem aware of just how banging women now look this age, after 45, men apparently stop seeing us, stop opening doors, stop whistling as we walk past building sites.
Yeah.
I've heard the visible signs of ageing.
Smile lines and low tolerance for things I can't say on YouTube.
And I've got a cream to fix both of those, but in age and invisibility, the sudden death knell of sex appeal, where in a blink you go from being a babe in polka dots to mad Aunt Dottie, has knocked me for six.
After all the daft things women are told to maintain, due to maintain allure, all that thigh gapping and hair plucking, who's telling you this?
This is coming from other women.
I think it's the stupidest thing in the world as well.
I know.
We're just going to fade into the background.
It's like, well, I don't know if you've got much choice on this.
Like, you can't get men to be...
Like, to respond to a 50-year-old woman in the way they respond to a 20-year-old woman.
You just can't do it.
Don't know what to tell you.
I don't know what the confusion is about.
Yeah.
This is one of those inevitable parts of life you just have to accept.
You can't really deny it.
You know it's true.
And you can't get away from it.
It's going to happen.
I feel like...
You know when people started debating what is a woman and everyone was just like, what?
What are you talking about?
Mm-hmm.
As many as 67% of women have claimed they receive less attention from men once they hit 45.
And even Christine Brinkley, I don't know who that is, said she felt invisible to men her own age, and if even she feels invisible, then the rest of us must be nearly able to walk through walls.
Yeah.
I believe all women can be sexy, elegant, have poise, and be head-turners at any age, if they want.
Sounds like a big cope, doesn't it?
No one really old wants to be really old.
I've never met someone who's like, you know what, I wouldn't go back to being 20 right now.
That would be terrible.
As in just, like, physically.
But this whole, like, well, look, you're just as beautiful at 60 as you were at 20.
It's like, yeah, come on.
No one thinks that.
You don't think that.
And so when we've got to the point where it's like, okay, look, okay, fine, but it's the men's fault...
men whose eyesight is failing young women are vulnerable and uncertain the unwanted attention from that guy passing and repassing like a shark desperate for attention by 45 that woman has become more accomplished with a stare that will shrivel his testicles yeah you sound like a good day Okay, but that's not getting you more attention, is it?
The men whose eyesight is failing.
Yeah.
You ever heard of that quote?
I think it was a family guy at one point.
The wonderful thing about college girls is I keep getting older, but they keep staying the same age.
It's the same in reverse.
It's like the guys on the building site, funnily enough, they stay the same age.
And they stop looking once you hit a certain age.
But never again will I have to endure.
Some idiot assuming I've been waiting at a bar for him.
Prince Charming swoop in and ask if I'd like to wear my ankles behind my ears.
I do not forget what it is like to have been assessed through a beer glass of desirability.
You have become so much more than just sexy.
I will not gently go from anyone's sight.
So actually it's a good thing.
So we've gone through.
It's not happening.
Now it's a good thing.
And then we'll just go for the third one just because, again, another perspective on this.
We can go for the next one.
Men stopped.
Sometime in my 50s, I became invisible to men.
Here's what I didn't expect to feel.
Lessons to young women.
The authority.
You say that 50 is the new 40, 60 is the new 50, and 70 is the new 60.
That statement should give us faith to continue to embrace our opportunities.
I feel that we should continue to explore possibilities, celebrate new discoveries, and try and remove the word decline from our vocabularies.
In other words, dear readers of mine, own your age and design your life so you do not feel invisible.
Now hang on, that's good.
Design your life so you do not feel invisible.
Yeah, it's the thing, let's delete the word decline from our vocabulary.
The weird thing, you find it in the beauty industry, where it's like, no one's ugly.
It's just like, what are you doing?
Yeah, but that's the thing, right?
It makes no sense.
I was walking past a billboard the other day, and the billboard was showing women before and after taking this beauty product, and it made their skin look nicer, and all their hairs disappear on their lip for some reason.
Anyway, and it was called Beautiful Before, Beautiful After.
Then why do I need your product?
Yeah.
What possible use is your product to me if I'm amazing already?
But it's just this weird culture that these circles have.
Yeah.
But what it is, it's sort of affirmation culture, right?
Where they can't bring themselves to admit, actually, that's not good.
Self-improvement in general is not a subject.
But really, there's not that much you can do to self-improve at this point.
If your entire position in the world has been based on the fact that you're youthful, fertile, and attractive, and then suddenly, don't worry, we'll get to that in a sec, and then suddenly that inevitably declines because you get older, well, it's not about, you've not necessarily done anything wrong, it's just that's the inevitability of living, which is why young women should be encouraged to secure themselves like family.
Because I tell you who's not invisible, right?
My mum is currently visiting.
She's 65, I think.
She's not invisible.
She's constantly got my kids all over her.
She's like, you know, nanny, can we do this?
Nanny can do that?
Nanny, can we do the other?
And then me and my wife going, mum, do you mind changing him?
Or do you mind taking him out?
Or do you mind spending some time?
You know, like, they're not invisible.
My mum has moved into the appropriate role for a woman in her 50s.
She's not like, oh, men aren't giving me the eye.
You know, she doesn't have to think that way.
Why am I not having strikes with random strangers?
Well, obviously she marries.
Yeah, I mean, that's the point.
Exactly.
Like, most older women should have moved into this position where, look, actually now you're the sort of matron of the family and you've got grandkids to worry about.
You know?
A lot of these don't.
I was reading the bonuses.
The Hungarian government gives the id population to encourage families.
Yeah, tax breaks, aren't they?
Screw the tax breaks.
Oh, really?
Like, the most interesting policy they have is that if you're a woman and you've worked for 40 years doing whatever, if you add it all up, you have various jobs and it goes to 40 years, you can retire now.
Oh, really?
So if you start work at, say, 16, and then, what is it, like...
46.
I know, 56.
You want to retire?
Go ahead.
Because the point is, you're then there for the kids.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, you can spend time with your grandkids.
It's a good idea, actually.
But anyway, she says, you know, design your life so you do not feel invisible.
It's like, okay, that's good.
Good advice.
And that should begin in your youth, where you think, right, how am I going to get a husband?
How are we going to have kids?
How are we going to end up having grandkids, right?
That's what I would consider the way to design your life so you don't feel invisible.
That's not where she goes with it.
Unfortunately, as we age, many of us have not figured out a solution to what can become a serious problem.
How do we continue to feel visible after a certain age?
Because the truth, dear readers of mine, is that 50 is 50, 60 is 60, and 70 is 70.
This is all a lie.
We're lying to ourselves.
We're not going to remain sexy and interesting to men in our 50s.
You know, there is actually a TikTok trend recently I probably should have sent to you.
Really?
Which is that it's like girls who are 18 or whatever, right?
And then the TikTok trend is like they have their mum walk out dressed as she is and then they dress their mum and then the mum walks out.
Not going to lie, some of the mum's Sure, but some of the mums are like, you know, late 30s, right?
Some of them are older.
It's just like, huh, that weird look works.
Some of them really don't, obviously.
I'm not denying the reality.
But anyway, she says, I have girlfriends who continue to excel to the heights.
A past mayor and judge, a woman who runs a women's group on current events, grandmothers and wives and mums who dote on their families.
Right, there we go.
That's something good.
Friends who take courses in language help the sick and the poor with their dedicated time and own businesses.
And yet I hear several of my accomplished friends tell me I feel invisible.
That's interesting, isn't it?
My accomplished friends, not the grandmothers.
The accomplished friends, not the grandmothers.
She says, listening to their views, I thought to myself, the only connection to the word invisible in my head is Casper the Friendly Ghost.
I'm like, right, okay.
There are several explanations why women begin to feel invisible as they age over 50.
Their children have left the nest and they have families of their own.
Retirement age is approached and they no longer feel relevant.
Well, if they have families of their own, go near them.
Move closer.
Honestly, having your parents around when you have kids is so useful.
Go and spend time with Grandad.
I just want five minutes of you not destroying the house.
And then there's the universal, the blinding universal reason.
Women feel invisible because they are aging.
They no longer look young.
They realize they no longer notice as they walk down the street or enter a restaurant where beautiful young maidens strut their stuff.
They realize they're alone in a fitting room.
The mirror can't hide the change in their bodies.
Aging is hard if you allow it to be.
Well, there we go.
And that's really the concrete thing.
There is a kind of universal privilege that younger women have that you will lose.
Nature is a cruel and unforgiving mistress.
So she's like, well, made me ask myself, what's next?
What is next?
There's only one thing.
The continuous pursuit of inner happiness.
Oh, sorry.
Inner happiness?
Yeah.
I got all this inner happiness from the way people responded to me.
How do I get inner happiness now?
But she says, look, you have at least got time at this point.
She's like, you know, don't be afraid, but go and do things you like, which is fair advice.
But she says, if you do this, you will walk down every street knowing that you are beautiful because you are proud of whom you are.
You will recognize the older body is different and you will be glad it is healthy.
You'll walk into a restaurant like you own it and thank God you have the opportunity to live your next several years as a relevant woman.
But you can't get that attention back.
You can at least be secure and happy in yourself.
But the point that I'm trying to make is that this is true.
You will get older, men will become less interested in you, and you will feel like you've lost something, had something taken away from you, and there's nothing you can do about it.
So plan now.
With that, we'll go to the video comments.
Hello, Lotus Eaters!
Happy New Year!
So, how's that hangover?
Hopefully it's not too bad.
Anyway, any New Year's resolutions you want to share?
You mean New Year's resolutions, kind of?
No, my family don't.
What does that mean?
I don't know.
I don't understand the holiday in the slightest.
It's like, I don't know, the Festival of Light or something to me.
Everyone else has these fireworks and goes out and gets drunk and I'm just like, okay, what?
It's a good excuse to go out and get drunk.
Yeah, no, I can't.
But I'm not in my 20s, so you should go out and get drunk.
I haven't got any news resolutions, by the way.
Did you have any?
Did you used to do it?
No, no, I never used to either.
Generally because I was too lazy.
And now I've managed to sort of parlay that into a, well, if I'm not living the life I want to live now, why would I start the new year?
So just live as you think it should be.
But I mean, I'm not against people having New Year's resolutions.
As long as they stick to them.
But I don't think they'll stick to them.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't really have much to say on the topic, because again, it doesn't mean much to me.
But it was Happy New Year.
Happy Hanukkah.
My point is, I just don't understand the holiday.
It's almost foreign to me, somehow.
That's just a way of marking a new year, isn't it?
I don't hate it.
I don't love it.
Yeah, in Russia, they don't have Christmas.
Christmas is New Year.
Yeah, there's something to do with the Orthodox calendar still being on the Julian calendar, not the Gregorian one.
Yeah.
I have this really retarded thing where it's like the next day you get on a train to go somewhere across the country and they serve this horrible drink.
I can't remember what it is.
But it's like, this is just a myth.
What Russian drinks aren't horrible?
Yeah, well, it's...
Water.
Water's quite nice.
Oh, I bet it's brilliant.
Yeah.
I bet it.
I doubt it.
I really doubt if the water in Russia is drinkable.
It's sort of sparkling water as well.
That's the worst part.
Yeah, but you're talking about water out of a bottle, right?
I bet you can't drink the tap water in Russia.
Yeah, well, that's where you go.
I made the mistake in Greece of drinking tap water and I got the runs for a day.
So I don't believe that the Russian water is good.
When I was in my hands, I got some of the water, I started drinking it, and my friend sort of looked at me like, what are you doing?
Yeah, don't do that.
You're not in England anymore.
Anyway, it's got the written comments on the spice, I suppose.
Rude the day, he says.
You guys seem to forget what type of person grows up to wants to be a policeman.
Decent and well-adjusted boys go into the fire services.
Well, it's not even that.
The good boys who do want to go to the police force routinely we see and talk to people just get weeded out because the institution is horrible to them.
Yeah.
Inherently.
Someone online says pedos should be stigmatized.
This is a feature, not a bug.
Correct.
Barron Von Warhawk says, any pedo who isn't going to therapy to kill themselves or this mental disease deserves to be stigmatized and lived in fear.
Well, I mean, I can't terribly disagree.
So this whole thing, I genuinely believe it's about what you habituate yourself into.
Like, you end up desiring the thing that you make normal in your life, right?
Because that's what, like, you know, homesickness is and longing is.
like longing for the normal right and this is why I don't like like lolly and stuff like that so but it's not a real person so yeah but you are representing something disgusting and despicable which and if Aristotle is right about like virtue being the habits that we carry well your habit is gross you know your habit is habituating yourself in something weird and you can change your I taught myself to like olives.
I hate olives.
But I kept going...
I used to date a girl who wanted to go to Italian restaurants all the time, and they'd give you some olives.
And I was like, I'm not wasting this.
So...
I'm a cheap bastard.
Yeah, exactly right.
My innate Scroogeness came out and I was like, I'll just learn to like them.
But now I like olives because I just taught myself to like them.
It's discipline, isn't it?
It's not just discipline, though.
It is discipline, but it's also you just become habituated into the thing.
You like the thing that you do repeatedly.
And so I think that a lot of...
be explained in that way.
You know, it's like, if you were looking at, I don't know, women with huge knockers, like this wouldn't, like you, the further away you get from the thing, the more remote it is, surely?
I don't know.
I'm not a sexist.
I don't know.
How easy it is to change a person's fetishes or whatever.
Sure, I don't know.
One of the funny things I do find, I mean, it's not probably the best role model of the time, but something I saw from a short from Andrew Tate of all people, he made a good point about this, which is someone's asking, how do you find the motivation to work out?
He's like, I don't.
What do you mean find the motivation?
There's no motivation to work out.
Working out sucks.
You get the discipline to work out.
I think that's probably true with most things, like the discipline to eat certain kinds of food or to stop drinking Coke every day.
This is the problem with porn, though, isn't it?
The problem with indulging a fetish is that it becomes normal, and then you may as well just go a step further, right?
If you don't keep it kind of taboo, then what's the point?
Yeah, exactly.
If you control the things that you are prepared to allow yourself to indulge in, then surely they don't become normalised and you don't find yourself along with them.
You find yourself in the...
Well, also it would become boring.
Well, it's true.
There's an argument.
But I'm sure it has to be something to do with habituation.
I refuse to believe the left when they're like, oh, we're just born that way, bro.
It's like, bollocks.
I just don't really believe it.
I certainly don't think that's true about fetish.
No.
Omar says, apparently this is very spicy, so I'm going to read it first.
Hello.
Omar says, to be fair, roads change layouts, streets change names, maps need updating all the time, and the old ones need disposing of.
We do indeed have to rewrite the maps.
Lord Nerevar says, every time Scotland does something, it always brings me back to the just-kick-them-out position, until I'm reminded, usually by you fine gentlemen, that that's letting the enemy win.
Invasion it is.
Why are you hearing that from us?
What are you talking about?
What?
Scots.
What, about kicking them out?
Yeah, every moment you have, you're like, let's kick them out.
Am I? Yeah.
Wow.
I don't think I've ever heard you make an argument for why the Scotts should stay in the Union.
I don't think you've ever said I'm slating the enemy with them.
I think you've always said, get rid of them now!
No, no, no, no.
I want my taxes back!
No, yeah, I'm in favour of impoverishing Scotland.
By withholding English money.
But, no, he has got a good point.
Like, if we kick them out, then that's giving the leavers what they want.
And it's like, no, no, no.
Is it better for us to kick the...
I think kicking the mat is better.
Because if they vote to leave, then they can be like, ha-ha, we've got our freedom, Braveheart, blah-blah-blah-blah.
BS narrative that the SNP will wove into the nation of Scotland.
Whereas if we kick them out...
It's a kind of failure on their part.
Yeah, the SNP can't wove a historical narrative in that way anymore.
I did a New Year's Eve stream on my Sargon channel the other day, and Dank came on, and there's the best comment.
It's like, why is it every time I'm on a stream with you, you always have to quote Longshanks?
It's like, well, look...
Just saying, man.
Look at how Scotland's been governed.
It's terrible.
It's all the counts.
Yeah, it is.
It was like Sinn Féin in Northern Ireland and Ireland.
Look at the Plague Cymru's.
Like, yes, we need 16-year-olds and illegal immigrants voting because otherwise people won't vote for us because we're terrible.
Yeah.
Colin says, I find it interesting that all sides seem to refer to consent, but very rarely to the necessity for that to be informed consent.
Even then, I think that consent-based morality is not the sum total of morality either.
There are some things that even if you were to consent to them, would be immoral.
Like self-mutilation.
I don't think...
Okay, I consent to have my arms chopped off.
There was a German guy who consented to have himself cannibalized.
Is that the one with his penis?
Yes.
And it's like, look, I don't care if he consented to that.
The cannibalism itself is wrong.
There's no amount of consent that makes that okay.
Lib right's like, this is tyranny.
Yeah.
And so the Lib left.
I'm like, yeah.
Deal with it.
You're not allowed to be eaten by your neighbor.
You're not allowed to mutilate the genitals of a child.
But what if I sell it?
What if they agree?
No, I don't care.
In every circumstance.
That is the funniest liberate point I've ever heard, though, which is, why can't I sell my children?
They're my children.
Which is a good question.
Henry says, I'm not sure what I'm more annoyed about with the nonce rebrand.
The fact they did it or the fact they're still listening to the EU north of the wall.
Time to evict the eternal traitors and let them wallow in the consequences of their actions for a century or two.
I mean, I'm not against the idea.
When I was in Belfast, I put up some pictures of the Northern Irish Peace Ball.
It's all Palestine, Kurdistan nonsense.
But I asked the Northern Irish guys, what the hell's going on?
A bunch of them did respond, so that's kind of what's happened, is that because Ireland got its independence, and then Northern Irish is a bit more complicated, of course, but the Irish narrative is all about the oppression from the English, and after that's obviously gone, and now they're richer than us.
And they're sort of lost for identity, because that was the identity.
Oh no!
We don't know who we are now that the English aren't kicking us in the head.
Yeah, they've got nothing to do, is the way people put it.
So they've started latching on to weird foreign causes, where they can play the glorified oppressed.
And it comes off so weird, because they're like, yeah, Kurdistan...
What was the average income on an Irish household now?
Oh, let me know.
This is something like £45,000 or something.
I don't know.
It was quite a lot.
It's the GDP per capita that you're thinking about.
Yeah, but it was quite a lot, and it's like, oh my god.
GDP per capita Ireland, that's 2019, I need 2020.
No, let's do 2022.
I love the idea that these rich Irishmen are just like, yeah, we're oppressed, just like the Palestinians.
I'm basically a Muslim.
Anyway.
Colin says, if you use their terminology, you automatically give ground.
The correct answer is, sorry, I do not accept your premise.
Yeah, that's exactly why we shouldn't be using LGBT. EP per capita, 2021 Ireland, 99,000 US dollars.
What?
Yeah.
It's mainly like the big spike is because all the companies house themselves there.
But there will be some trickle-down.
I don't believe it's not.
For the UK, I think it's about $40,000.
It's terrible.
But then we've got twice the corporation tax Ireland has for some reason.
Yeah, but...
What happened to Singapore on Thames?
Well, we're $42,000.
Whereas Ireland's about $100,000.
Yeah, but seriously, like, all the international corporations, like, oh, Ireland's on, like, 12.5% corporation tax.
Oh, yeah, I mean, Tories.
Yeah.
It's just like, sorry, what are you doing?
Brexit meant low taxes.
I just love it as well.
Your GDP line go up, you always hear, and it's just like, the UK's GDP per capita line is just a flat line for 13 years or something.
The point being, it's just like, oh, we made more money.
You also invited loads of people, so now we don't have any each.
If you were to reduce it below 12.5%, let's say 6.5%, you'd really, really make a good case for people coming here and investing their money.
Singapore on Thames!
But that's the thing as well, if you're an international company, you've got Dublin, and that's pretty much it.
There's all where their base is all they care about, and that's just one city.
We've got loads of cities.
If you're in and around the UK, then you've got far more options.
You could even have it so that the taxes were lower in certain cities to encourage investment there.
Special economic zones.
I don't run a clue, the southwest special economic zone would be good.
No, no, like northwest, northeast, you know, give them a city that's a special economic zone.
Yeah, but I don't live there.
I don't want to live there either, but I want other people to live there.
The point is, this country is being so fucking mismanaged, it really annoys me.
Yeah, it's almost comical.
Yeah.
I mean, there are going to be people like, look, they're trying to make us fail, and that's probably true.
Anyway, Mike says the most accurate word for pedos is nonce.
The acronym nonce stands for not on normal courtyard exercise.
It meant staff would not open their doors when other prisoners came out, and apparently it was first coined at a jail in Yorkshire, which is where nonces belong.
I don't think that's entirely fair.
Nonces belong in other jails.
Not just Yorkshire jails.
I didn't know the etymology of it, though.
No, I didn't.
I didn't know either.
I love that it's a prison term.
That makes it even more fun to use.
Henry says, destigmatizing burglars will lead to the nonces branding themselves childhood virginity burglars or something like that.
Terrible.
The dinghy surfer update, which is funny.
Dinghy surfer.
JJHW says, the hotels being used to house illegals were acting as hostels.
Acting as a hostel is a change of use that requires planning permission.
I love the idea that this is how we get rid of the illegals.
Bureaucracy.
Well, excuse me, the local council has said you've been denied this planning permission, so we can't house these illegals here.
That's the only way we can get rid of them.
Taking money to do something they're not legally allowed to do is fraud under the Fraud Act of 2006.
So this is a criminal conspiracy by those in government, Serco and the Hotel Ogres.
Yeah, it pretty much is.
I mean, it is, but like...
Yeah, but...
Yeah, the expense of destroying the country, but if you're a rich guy, what do you care?
Yeah, yeah, obviously.
But like, is that really the only ground we can have to get rid of them?
No, but think about how evil that process is for a minute, because it really is true.
Like, you're the CEO, shareholders, or just rich people at the top of Serco, etc.
The whole bunch of other companies, they're just the biggest one.
And you live in your little gated rich community in some country village in the middle of nowhere or some crap, and you hire a bunch of people who can barely speak English to run your empire of importing tens of thousands of illegal immigrants to ruin everyone's neighbourhood in the country.
Yeah.
I mean, that's why we saw the English hotel owners.
It's just like, I'm not in debt.
Yeah.
Not worth the money.
I care about my community.
I actually live here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Weird, I know.
I'm actually not a massive piece of S. Colin...
We almost weird.
Belfast is also full of them.
Part of the UK. But that's the thing.
We saw it as a dumping ground to get rid of ours.
And then also, a bunch of them went to Ireland and then just walked over the border and went, I'm an asylum seeker.
From Ireland?
From the EU? Yeah.
I've fled the EU! So you run into a huge amount of them.
Where have you come from, France?
Ireland?
Terrible.
Got double the GDP, I can't live there.
Yeah.
Colin also says, the biggest problem with the Rwanda plan is actually letting people know before the flights left.
Yeah, I agree.
Omar says, I believe one of the stipulations of the Rwanda deal is that Rwanda can refuse any immigrants they didn't want, so we're effectively just sending them the cream of the crud and keeping the worst for ourselves.
Every single one of these chances should be charged for each expense required to deal with them.
Debt slays until it's paid back.
Well, four years prison, and we charge your national government, and if they don't pay, then we keep you as a slave.
And why would Rwanda refuse?
I mean, we're paying them to take them.
Why would they refuse a single one?
I don't know why the host countries don't take them back.
We'll pay you 13 grand, just take them back.
Easy win.
I mean, I know we're sort of like paying the Vikings at that point.
Yeah, it is.
I hate it.
It's Ethel Stanley Unready's policy.
I'm much more...
I told you, hire the Afghan guys.
Like, the guys in the Afghan military that worked for us.
Hire them as the border guards.
Because they...
I remember I showed you.
I told them about the sea people.
Yeah.
Hatred.
Pure hatred.
They're just like, fleeing Pakistan!
But...
I just...
The whole thing is so insufferable.
I watched Rishi Senak's little video that he did, a little piece of the camera answering questions.
Oh yeah, well we have to deal with illegal immigration.
It's like, oh yeah, you're the most limp-wristed person on the face of the planet.
I don't believe you can deal with anything.
I'd rather the Afghans be put in charge of it.
You're so right about the this country thing as well.
He speaks like he's a manager of a company.
The satrap of Britain.
You know, like gaming companies, they're quite often, they'll parachute in CEOs.
Yeah.
So it's very rare to have like a dev or something in charge of the nation, the company.
Very rare to have an Englishman in charge of the nation, yeah.
But it's more about they have no concept of the structure or how anything works.
And they don't consider themselves a part of it.
It's not our.
There was a quote from, I think it was Jim Sterling's show, actually, where he got some leaks out of some people who worked at a company, and they were like, the goddamn CEO only knows Call of Duty, Candy Crush, and Clash of Clans.
That was it, and they're making RPG games.
And he's like, why have you not added microtransactions?
They're just looking at him like, are you an actual idiot?
We're making Baldur's Gate 4.
Why would we add microtransactions to guns?
That's how it feels.
Yeah.
This is all national level inside.
Yeah.
God, it's just so annoying.
There was the other solution.
So I met some British mercenaries.
Oh, yeah.
What do the mercenaries think?
Actually very sensible.
Oh, were they?
You get a sea lion.
Sensible, centrist, mercenary policies.
Helicopter.
You keep it on base.
Not an actual sea lion.
Yeah.
Get a sea lion and release it into the compound.
Sea lion helicopter.
How's that?
I don't know.
It's like 10 people or something.
You keep that on base in Dover.
A couple of squaddies.
A couple of pilots.
Boat lands.
You put them on sea lions.
Fly them over.
Drop them off on a French beach.
Fly back.
No, I just think you drop them off into the sea.
No, no, no, you drop them off the beach.
Drop them off the sea about a few hundred metres out so they've got to swim back.
Well, you know, we found you, we know where you come, we'll just send you home.
We'll get you a taxi.
Oh, I totally agree.
Ride a helicopter, who doesn't want it?
Yeah.
And the thing is, like, if they try to resist, kick.
And if the French try to stop you, good luck.
Well, yeah, what are they going to do?
You couldn't stop the Nazis, so...
Well, we're way worse than them, what are we?
No, my point being, like, you can't even stop, like, D-Day or anything, so, you know, a helicopter turning up on a random beach.
France isn't exactly a hermetically sealed country.
No.
Um...
Ergo, the sea people.
Have you ever seen what an actual sea lion looks like?
I've seen one.
Colossal.
Wasn't there one recently that broke into a town without jacking off?
That was Warris.
I'm happy to actually unleash sea lions upon them.
Because they are giant.
I'll find you a picture later.
There's going to be migrants writing home to Sudan sketches of sea monsters.
Hey!
I crossed the waves to Britain and was attacked by a sea monster.
As soon as these maps of the world are normal and there's just sea monsters surrounding the island.
Honestly, that's what I want them to return back with, yes.
Andrew says, British women shouldn't worry about being invisible at 50.
Should Britain fall to Sharia, they'll be practically invisible from birth.
Fair point.
Didn't want to tell you, but yeah, okay, that's...
But on the plus side, at least Muslim women aren't being like, I feel invisible.
You know, A, they've been protected from male gaze their whole lives, so they're not like, it's not a vice that they've found themselves to need, and they've probably got massive families, so they're always busy with their grandkids.
Good for them.
Alexander says, women become invisible when they hit 50.
That's funny, because men are invisible their entire lives.
Yeah, I know.
Pardon me if I don't shed a tear for women finally seeing what it's like.
Yeah, I know.
Was it Nora Vincent's book where she, the lesbian woman who dressed up as a man very convincingly, like, you know, a fish beard.
And then she's like, it's like, I don't exist.
It's like, being a man is lonely.
And she killed herself.
Dead, yeah.
So, but I think Harry wants to do a book club on that at some point, which I think would be a really interesting thing to do.
Because, yes, they...
But that's the thing, isn't it?
When you've had a lifetime of privilege, equality feels like oppression.
It's a pretty progressive one, sir.
It is very progressive, but like...
Young women do not know how much of society men responsible for this give them this kind of privilege and security.
They just don't know.
Rue the Day says, Ladies, after 50 isn't our time to be seen but heard.
Before then, think of something to say.
That's a great point.
I can't remember what it was, but it was like the Cannes Film Festival or something, and there was some old actress there complaining that George Clooney was distinguished and had gravitas, and nobody cared about her, and it's like, yeah, but...
You're not interesting.
You haven't cultivated yourself at all, because for your entire life you were unbelievably beautiful, and so you didn't need to.
There are a handful of older women that I've met in my life who are just fascinating because they have something interesting to say about stuff.
I mean, the funniest interaction I ever had was actually with one of the fellow MEP candidates.
Oh, yeah.
Driving around from polling station to polling station, just saying hi to people, as you do.
And sat one day, we're talking about the Germans.
She just goes to me, you know, I don't have a racist bone in my body, Callum.
In Germans!
And they just went on a big old run, and I was like, oh, I love Britain.
Her father fought them in the war and everything.
So, it's just...
Bald Eagle says, why have women become invisible?
According to the new thing, there are no women, because that's transphobic to loser men who decided to become women so they could feel better about themselves by beating women in sports.
I'll tell you what, if there's one thing that trans women don't have to complain about, it's invisibility, right?
It's like...
But...
Nobody notices that I, a woman, have walked into...
No, everyone notices me.
You know?
And that's why we're not on Vimeo anymore.
There you are.
You don't want to be invisible anymore.
Become something that people turn their heads for.
Yet another piece of evidence that trans women are not women because they're insanely visible.
Oh.
Eddie Izzard, very visible.
Yeah, exactly.
Eddie Izzard's a great example.
You know, Eddie Izzard is like, people aren't paying me attention.
Everyone's staring.
Like, God, what's he doing?
And Eddie Izzard has always kind of been this way as well.
Anyway, more proof if needed.
He says, Yeah, you've kind of shot yourself in the face there, haven't you?
Or in the foot?
Well, it's...
I understand the decisions that are made, but it's just funny, isn't it?
Because, like, the woman who's cultivated the family and then lives on that for the social interaction...
I know it's a bit simplistic, but...
Yeah, that's fair.
Like, that obviously makes sense, but then I don't understand the women who do Korea and then don't cultivate themselves.
I mean, that's just weird.
Well, I mean, they can tell you all about the latest TPS report or how the spreadsheet should be organised.
That would be fascinating.
But, like, it would be like a mother who hates her kids...
And therefore, just like, did the mother, like, root, like, completely, and then just ruin the family because she just, and they're just wondering what went wrong?
Well, the problem is, like, you know, if you're working in the corporate environment for, like, 50 years, what have you cultivated?
Like, look, sit down, we're going to have a meeting.
This is going to be the most effective meeting.
You want to talk about property law?
Yeah, exactly.
You know, I can tell you exactly how much tax you should be paying on that.
This isn't, like, interesting.
This is just any accountant or any, you know, whatever the boring corporate environment she was in.
And if it's young women now, well, I mean, I can tell you where the wine fountain is.
You know, I went into the meditation room in Twitter's headquarters.
I mean, what are they even cultivating there?
Well, not even anything technical.
Exactly.
No technical skills or anything.
So what are they cultivating?
Well, I got this real sense of sereneness when I watched the sunset on top of Apple HQ. Brilliant.
A small little libertarian says, ooh, story time.
So New Year's Eve, I'm walking out of the bottle shop.
Three 35 to 40-year-old wine aunts are walking in, and I hear, is such and such coming?
No, she's going to the fireworks.
Why?
She's 34 years old.
She likes to go with her kids.
God, it was sad.
I was gearing up for the whole afternoon with the kids there.
The vitriolic tone on the last line, man.
Really?
So the older women are like, ugh, kids.
Well, and I tell you, I hate this.
I just hate this general atmosphere of like this.
No, dude.
They're normal.
And if you've got a problem with children being around, you're the problem.
I've not had that on a train, but I did have once, I was on a train, a bunch of women drinking, and they're clearly like, go to work together or something.
And one of them said, Dave, he's so sexist, I can't stand him.
I'm like, what does he do?
And he's like, he doesn't even use the pronouns.
Really?
At the bottom of the thing, she, her, he, him, that's what she was whining about?
And I'm sat the next door, just like, oh god!
And I think I made like a noise a bit too loud, of just like groaning.
And then she turned around, so I looked at me and went, Oh yes, Dave is pretty great, actually.
Thank you.
I support Dave in all of his endeavours.
She was explaining how she's tried so many times to tell Dave.
She sat down with him, tried to be nice, and she's not going to be nice anymore.
Oh, what's she going to do?
Report him to HR? She probably will, actually.
She probably really has reported him to HR. I told everyone this was coming.
I told everyone this was going to be everywhere.
Ignacio says, Just want to say that I finally gave my girlfriend an engagement ring this new year.
After eight years, we are actually engaged.
Happy New Year and have a good one, lads.
Congratulations.
I'm glad she said yes.
Well, that's the end of the comments.
God, did you see the Indian guy proposing?
Viral.
No.
Awful.
Like, it's David put out on Twitter.
And the guy, like, he's walking with the girl, like, trying to hold her hand or whatever.
It's clearly not going great.
And then, like, he goes to propose, and she's like...
Then tries to leave, and he's, like, grabbing her, and then just starts beating her up.
The worst part is, is, like, clearly his friend had a phone and was filming this because it was going to be, like, a beautiful moment or something.
And then he's just beating the crap out of her for, like, two minutes.
Two solid men's.
And the guy just keeps filming.
He doesn't stop his friend.
Well, this is going viral, mate.
I don't know.
Before, it was just going to be nice.
So this is an Indian guy?
Yeah, yeah.
In India?
Yeah, yeah.
You know what that problem is.
I mean, if there's one country that probably needs feminism, it'll actually work.
I mean, Muslim countries, feminism's never going to work.
Don't be silly.
But India could probably use it.
I don't really want to curse them.
You know about the bus problem?
Oh, what?
Women getting raped on buses?
And then they had to resort to segregating all trains and buses again.
Which is one way of dealing with it.
That is one way of dealing with it.
You know about the old stories in England of how to stop a man messing with you on a train if you're a woman?
No.
There's some advice, which is if when you went into a tunnel back when box halls were new, you're a woman, you should put pins in your mouth.
That way, if a man tries to kiss you...
Then he gets stabbed, yeah.
The eerily sweet Victorian era is like, ooh, what if he kisses you?
Yeah.
But this reminds me of in, what was it, like 2015, when the feminists were like, oh, we need separate cars on trains for women.
It's like, not in India.
Yeah, I think they did in Japan too, didn't they?
Oh, maybe, I don't know.
Because there was a lot of, like, upskirts and all that.
Well, okay, fair enough.
Japanese men, isn't it?
Anyway, the rest of the world's wonderful.
Brought and troubles the mine.
More immigration!
God...
I don't know what they make of that in the Japanese, because on every level they're just like, oh my god, so advanced.
You know, everyone starts a conversation.
Well, in Japan, they do this and everyone listens.
They're just deeply repressed, like we used to be.
Like, sexually, it seems to be a mess.
That's what people say about us.
Do they?
Oh yeah.
The British famously sexually repressed.
I mean, maybe to the Czechs, but like...
Well, no, just generally.
In the modern age, really?
Well, yeah, probably not now.
But like, you know, you go back 100 years, and that was what everyone said about us.
I was like, yeah, and it was a better time.
It was a better world.
Women wore pins in their mouths.
Yeah, exactly.
Things were better, me lad.
When was I reading this Anglican preacher like 100 years ago or something?
Like, he was giving a sermon like, oh, like, gentlemen, every Saturday night you don't have to go to your wives.
Maybe you should have less sex than once a week.
It's like, oh, come on, guy.
Give him a break.
Like, you know, like Saturday night was ritual.
I was in the English Are They Human?
That's what I was reading.
Like, it's like, you know, not every Saturday night.
And this guy was like, yeah, the English should definitely repress.
And it's like, well, yeah, but once a week is fine.
Even to a sermon of married men.
Yeah, I know.
Maybe you should have less sex.
Every Saturday night?
Yeah, yeah, okay.
I think that's probably sexually repressed.
Yes.
And it can only have been worse than the Victorian era, to be honest.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's funny as hell.
Anyway, we're out of time.
So if you want to find out more, do we do a podcast on that?
I don't know.
Oh, on the English Are the Human?
Yeah.
Yeah, go and check out the English Are the Human.
That's not the crux of the argument.
It's the funniest part.
It is one of the funniest parts, yes.
Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
