Time Text
Good afternoon, folks.
Welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Seaters for the 25th of October, 2024.
I am joined by Steli Olson-Po.
And we're going to be talking about how the Kamala campaign is getting very, very desperate, how everyone's catching election fever, and how we're going to be oppressed by the global majority.
In Britain.
Certainly because we have a Labour government.
Actually, no, we can't.
We'll get to it.
But before we begin, at three o'clock we are doing the Gold Tier Zoom call for anyone who is a subscriber to the website.
Gold subscriber to the website.
So come and join us for that.
All right.
Well, without further ado.
Right, we're going to discuss the rhetoric of the Democrats, the rhetoric of the Harris-Waltz campaign, because to me it shows increasing signs of desperation.
I mean, it feels charitable to call it rhetoric at this point, if you're just literally screaming fascist, Hitler, Nazi at someone.
That's barely a rhetorical strategy.
It's just peak desperation.
So Kamala Harris shared with us her to-do list.
And she says things like, cat taxes for more than 100 million Americans, strengthen Medicare and protect Social Security, work with private sector to build 3 million new homes, increase housing supply and bring down costs, pass the bipartisan border security bill to strengthen and secure the border.
I believe it.
Very, very persuasive.
Yeah, restore reproductive freedom, legalize recreational marijuana, and the list goes on.
I thought this was a parody.
It's from her verified account.
Right, who's gonna tell her it's four years now that she's the VP? Yeah.
I don't know.
And especially the fourth one, securing the border.
You did nothing.
Doesn't exactly do this.
So...
Restore reproductive freedom.
Okay, so override states rise.
Okay, great.
Brilliant.
That's, you know, anyway.
Right.
So when it comes to the positives, they aren't particularly persuasive, and the party of joy becomes the party of resentment.
Because, let's face it, what the Democrats have been doing for more than 10 years now is entirely capitalizing upon resentment.
And here we have it yet again.
After Trump's magnificent presence at the McDonald's, we have here Kamala Harris coming and telling us with a very concerned face and demeanor about the enemy of democracy.
Before we play it, Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler.
Did he stand in front of a mirror and say Hitler three times to appear behind him or something?
What the hell are you doing?
You're invoking Adolf Hitler by saying that Trump's invoking Adolf Hitler.
I thought her riposte would be to go and do a shift in Denny's.
It's not nearly as famous, is it?
Or White Castle.
We don't have these in the UK. Tim Walz said that Trump's appearance at the McDonald's is disrespectful for the workers.
I don't see it that way.
Everyone loved it.
Everyone loved it.
So Kamala Harris comes with a very concerned face to tell us.
Donald Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had.
Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution.
He wants a military that is loyal to him.
He wants a military who will be loyal to him personally.
I really like the final bit because she says he wants a military that is loyal to him and then she feels the need to add to him personally.
Because maybe some people would think that he wants the military to be loyal to him impersonally.
Isn't the president the commander in chief?
That's exactly what I was going to say.
You took words right out of my mouth.
He is essentially the highest ranking officer.
But also, didn't Hitler's general's plot to assassinate him at some point?
Multiple times.
Multiple times.
The Valkyrie is just the most famous one.
Yeah, this is just really stupid.
And also, sources say, because this comes from New York Times or something, where two people familiar with the story said that Donald Trump wished he had generals like Hitler.
It's like, oh, did they really?
Am I taking the New York Times or whoever it is at their word, am I? No, of course I'm bloody not.
Josh did a good segment yesterday that you can find on YouTube saying about this.
Allegedly what happened that there was a Mexican officer who died in some barracks and Trump went to the family.
He said that he wanted to pay for the funeral personally.
And then at some point he was told that the funeral was about to cost £60,000, which seemed like a lot.
And he told a general, we shouldn't go forward.
And I think that they went forward and they paid it.
And essentially he said that he wanted loyal people.
But that's the thing.
Trump is endearing, but I think we can all say that he isn't particularly careful with what he is saying.
And as you said before, Hitler had some generals who were plotting against him and tried to kill him.
I'm not taking anyone's word for these stories.
Literally, two weeks before the election, by the way, Trump's a rapist and he's naughty.
One, it didn't happen.
Two, he's the commander-in-chief.
Three, they tried to kill him.
Four, Hitler that is.
Four, they were actually really competent.
Loads of them were really competent.
From Gigerian through Modo.
Anyway, loads of them were extremely competent in their jobs.
Unlike Milley.
Right, yeah.
And also Trump had four years in power and he wasn't what Democrats were constantly saying he would be.
Now we have here yet another post by Kamala Harris.
She says, Donald Trump is out for unchecked power.
He wants a military like Adolf Hitler had, who will be loyal to him, not our constitution.
He is unhinged, unstable, and given a second term, there would be no one to stop him from pursuing his worst impulses.
Derangement.
Truly deranged.
Genuinely funny.
I love the idea that Donald Trump is sat there seeing, you know, I don't like the American military, I'm sick of it.
I want a Wehrmacht.
I want Blitzkrieg places.
But of course he's not.
Of course this is ridiculous.
Trump's first hour in office, by executive fiat, we're bringing flamethrowers back.
We want Death's Head Skullcats!
The thing is, he spent quite a lot on the military and deployed them the least, right?
Famously, he didn't go to any new wars.
He did!
So why does he need a Wem Act?
She's talking just...
It's complete nonsense, isn't it?
That's the thing.
It's hysterical.
What she wants to do is, because the positive doesn't work, she only wants a negative.
She wants a campaign of fear.
Not exactly a campaign of joy.
It's just a campaign of fear.
And what she wants to do is to associate Donald Trump with Adolf Hitler in the minds of the swing voters.
I've never tried this before.
It's a bold strategy.
I wonder if it's real.
What are you doing?
It doesn't work on a political level, but you will say that in some cases it has very detrimental effects.
And we can't say that it hasn't led to an atmosphere of stochastic terrorism.
There have been attempts against his life.
Calling him a literal dictator Mecha-Hitler is definitely going to get some of their followers to try and kill him.
Two things that struck me.
One, it's sort of the boy who cried wolf syndrome.
If you mention Hitler enough, people are just going to be like, okay, yeah, okay, Hitler again.
It's boring.
Which is literally the response that everyone's giving.
Right.
It's just like, really?
Hitler?
Okay.
Right, so Elon Musk says this is major incitement to violence against Donald Trump.
It's also really passé.
I mean, really, is Adolf Hitler really a relevant political figure 80 years after his death?
He has to be to prop up the boom of truth reasons.
Yeah, we've got nothing else.
He has to be.
He has to be.
Yeah, but can't he be like Gaddafi or something?
Yeah, can't we?
I think he would be more like Gaddafi rather than Hitler, actually.
Let's switch over to Franco as the boogeyman.
Yeah, well, whatever.
Just, you know.
Just for a change of scene.
Yeah.
Just, you know, just anyone.
You know, there are other dictators.
Pick another dictator.
Right.
Guys, I think we got him.
We need to mention this.
The hair also swishes in the same direction.
Yeah, and look at the way they're holding a glass of drinking water.
Trump also has German ancestry, so I say checkmate.
Only Nazis drink glasses of water, don't they?
We all know this.
And also they breathed.
Hitler breathed and he was a nationalist, or National Socialist to be specific.
So we can't have borders anymore.
That's the logic.
That's the logic.
Also Donald Trump's going to shoot you in the night.
Now we have a very deep rabbit hole that shows the past of this man.
It says Donald Adolf Hitler Trump throughout the years.
He is menacingly Will Smith.
I believe that is in the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
It would be Fresh Prince.
I never saw that episode.
I saw loads of Fresh Prince, but I don't remember that one.
Yeah, we have Hitler makes a phone call to deport a woman for her foreign accent.
Hitler invades the Emmy Awards disguised as a farmer.
I have here, Hitler narrowly avoids being eaten by fame.
By famous anti-fascist Michael Moore.
Hitler tries to convince George Bush to invade Poland, Ohio.
Hitler wears a polka dot as fascists tend to do.
Doesn't he look like Baron in that one?
He does, doesn't he actually?
He's like, go back up, go back up.
Guy does, doesn't he?
Sorry, carry him.
1989.
Because you know, maybe that's after Argentina or something.
Hitler attends secret society meetings of brutal warriors.
Hitler appears in Jimmy Fallon to spread fascist propaganda to the masses.
Fallon was executed by pharynx.
Obviously, this is metaphorically true.
Democrats.
They were angry that Fallon had tussled his hair, which, quote-unquote, humanized him.
And they were annoyed.
They were humanizing Trump.
It's like, well, I think he might be a human.
Yeah.
We're having the benefit of the doubt at this point.
We have Hitler met with, to say...
A notorious assassin with ties to Russia.
That's good.
That's very good.
Yeah, and here we have infamously fascist state media.
SNL provided Hitler a platform to spread his hate.
I'm sure this could go on for ages.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because what this is just doing is highlighting how much of a pop-cultural fixture Trump was before he became a political figure.
He was very, very famous.
He was all over American media.
Because why wouldn't you be?
Why wouldn't you want...
We also have Hitler here meeting with a black Nazi...
Yeah, he attempts to kidnap Oprah.
Where was Hitler's cameo in Home Alone 2?
Yeah, he wants to knock over the Western Wall in Jerusalem.
Oh, there we go.
That's from Home Alone.
It's got to be in there.
Yeah, yeah.
He recruits a young boy for his youth program.
And they finish with saying, I think you get the point, if you think Donald Trump is...
Meanwhile...
Yeah, you're either a liar or an idiot.
You know, this is the picture that everyone sees of Donald Trump.
Yeah.
Just as literally a Norman Rockwell painting of Americana.
Trump in a McDonald's waving his hand.
Just...
I mean, this was really popular as well.
Everyone loved this.
I wonder if he's upselling, asking if they want large fryers.
Well, you know.
Maybe he's giving the discounts.
Well, they didn't touch his fingers, which he was very specific on mentioning.
If you buy two fries, the third is for free.
He adds here the golf swing to his dance move.
Maybe, because it's an intimidating dance.
You see, it's a very specific dance.
I've not been to any of this.
You hear the drums of war behind it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Famous, marching.
Village people.
Village people.
Again, just, if you can go and find videos of Hitler giving speeches at Nazi rallies, it just doesn't look the same.
With YMCA playing behind leather-strapped dudes.
Hitler doesn't look like he's got a good sense of humor, you know what I mean?
He's a very serious man, and he yells a lot, and Trump just isn't the same.
Mel Gibson is not having it.
He doesn't find Democrat rhetoric convincing.
He's voting for Hitler.
He is endorsing Donald Trump and he's saying that Kamala Harris has the IQ of a fan's post and this has gone viral because there are hundreds of thousands of posts about this.
Because Mad Max endorses Trump.
Can I say something controversial?
I don't think Kamala Harris is that stupid, actually.
I think she's totally disinterested in the job and has done no work or research or reading on what she is expected to do.
I think she's done no research or reading on what she's expected to do and is done.
I can't escape the conclusion.
When you can only ever spiel out word salad like that.
I think that's a talent.
It's dumb.
I think it's a talent to be able to say lots and lots of things without saying anything.
But you have to appear as if you're saying something.
Exactly.
But she doesn't appear as if she says something.
She appears confused.
She does.
She'll say a bunch of things and you're just like, okay.
I get what you mean.
Like, Les Dawson would play the piano deliberately badly.
Yeah.
And you have to be a really good piano player to do that.
Yeah.
I don't think she's doing that.
Well, I'm not convinced.
That's all I'm saying.
She has a jazz gene.
The jazz musician.
Yeah, yeah.
Jazz politician.
Right, speaking of US election, we have wonderful merch for everyone here.
We have mugs, cups, t-shirts.
We also have hats, I think.
Probably.
I don't know.
Do we have hats?
Yeah, I was listening to people that we don't just sell t-shirts and mugs.
There's more to it than that.
We have also the Art of the Grill, the really nice...
I haven't actually looked.
Yeah, we have the...
Okay, maybe I spread fake news unintentionally, but we have lots of wonderful merch.
We do have We do have hats, so it wasn't fake news.
Being reliably informed by the voice of God that we do have hats.
Right, okay, so I particularly like the art of the grill.
Yeah, Rory's very proud of this.
He had esoteric knowledge.
I don't know how he knew.
Yeah, just let me grill, bro.
That's it, that's it.
Right, so I want to say something now because essentially I think that the philosophy of Just Let Me Grill is a philosophy that I find very endearing and I like it.
And I want to hold the Democrat rhetoric against its own standards and also against standards of my own because I think they don't have standards.
So, the way it seems to me, what they're doing is fundamentally un-American.
Because the very idea of, you know, of American politics is that power flows from we the people.
That's what they're saying.
That means that the population isn't just an aggregate of distinct special interest groups, but it is a population with a kind of identity.
They think of themselves as American, and this identity is supposed to be very important in decision making.
And here, Tim Wall seems to me to be doing the exact opposite.
He just presents The election as a matter of voting for special interest groups.
He says, I want to talk to all the guys for a second.
Think about all the women in your life that you love.
Daughters, wives, moms, cousins, neighbors.
This election is about their lives and protecting their freedoms.
Yeah.
So, I mean, this is wrong on so many levels because, first of all, it isn't just about women.
It's about men and women and also the people, which is something that the Democrats forget.
But also, what is fun here is that, especially people in Europe, One of the things that annoys me particularly about mass migration is precisely that it is harming public security, and a lot of women are the victims of it.
Yeah, I mean, I would say that if that's the case, you want someone who's going to build a giant, beautiful wall and make Mexico pay for it.
And presumably, when you look at news such as gangs, like Trendy Aragua and other gangs, occupying large complexes of apartments and terrorizing people, yeah, there were also women, there were also men, and they shouldn't be terrorized.
So it seems to me that this is wrong on all levels.
Now, let me just go forward to...
We had a...
We had a clip of Anne Applebaum saying, nowadays, most democracies fail not because of violence or a coup d'etat, but because a legitimate elected leader comes to power and begins to dismantle institutions.
Okay, Ham, pause that.
Give me an example.
I can give you some inclinations that some people are using their power To actually dismantle institutions.
Sure, but give me an example of a failed democracy, at least one that I would have called a democracy to begin with.
Well, this is some...
Venezuela?
Would I have called that a democracy to begin with?
At some point in what, in like the 70s?
Yeah, you could say this.
Yeah, and they had the Bolivarian Revolution though.
Yeah, but that's not because Chavez dismantled a bunch of institutions, it's because he literally became a dictator.
Yeah, but she probably means right-leaning people like Miele or Kelly or whatever.
Because it's all projection.
It's all projection.
Oh, I'm not agreeing with her!
That's my point.
It's like, yeah, what are you talking about?
It's all projection and I think what she doesn't do is that she doesn't apply this to the Democrats.
Trump is speaking like Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini!
Because she's actually not a bad historian in some other things.
She's written about the Soviet Union and gulags and things quite well.
And her and Timothy Snyder, I think when they're talking about history, about Eastern Europe, I just think that they have really good books.
It's really sad that they're doing this right now.
It's very one-sided.
To say that Stalin has the kind of rhetorical power of Hitler, or the theatrical power of Mussolini, absolutely not.
Terrible speaker.
No one liked him.
So, you know, these people do not all speak the same, so you can't just be like, oh, he's speaking like all of them.
Yeah, yeah, he's just bad.
Got it.
Okay, you don't like him.
But I want to hold the Democrats accountable to my standards and pose some questions, especially when it comes to dismantling institutions.
I have some questions.
What about the family?
How helpful are Democrat policies for the institution of the family?
What about the institution of free speech?
What about considerations about legitimacy?
Because if you want to be pro-institutions, you want people to think that they are legitimate.
For institutions to be legitimate, and be legitimate in the minds of people, people must trust the process.
So, why are they not in favour of voter ID laws?
Good question.
So I have some links here.
You know California Bill AB957? Not off the top of my head.
Right.
So this is something, I've done a segment about it more than a year ago.
This is an amendment that was, I think, proposed by Senator Scott Wiener and then ratified by Governor Gavin Newsom.
And there...
Making the following modification.
This bill proposes changes to the Political Reform Act.
They are essentially trying to attack parental rights and whenever we're talking about matters that pertain about the family and parents that are, let's say, fighting each other for custody, the parent who is affirming a child's self-conception Is going to have priority.
Essentially this piece of legislation is the state telling parents that unless you conform with your child's self-conception a hundred percent you're a bad parent and the parent who does do so and does play along with our ideology is going to be prioritized.
So it's Scott Wiener that came up with that one.
Yeah.
One of the most clearly degenerate people I've ever seen in my life.
Well, he doesn't exactly seem trustworthy to me.
We have yet another issue here.
Washington State Democrats vote to hire transgender runaways from parents.
Up until a particular point, when children were running away from their family and they went to some centres, these centres were obliged to notify the parents.
Now the state comes in and it says, well, if the child says that they left because their parents weren't affirming 100% of their self-conception, the asylum center doesn't have to notify the parents.
That's certainly not going to be a breeding ground for child predators.
Where can I get access to children where I don't have to tell their parents where they are?
If that's not an attack on the family, I don't know what is.
If that's not eroding the institution of the family, I don't know what is.
And let us talk about hate speech very briefly because we all know that Kamala Harris says that she's gonna use the Department of Justice to hold social media platforms responsible for hate and misinformation.
There's a problem with this.
They want to appeal immune to abuse of power.
That isn't exactly an American.
That isn't exactly Republican or Constitutional.
Because the very philosophy of the Constitution, it says that we should guard against the abuse of, against aspiring tyrants who want to abuse power.
And what It's incredibly suspicious that some people want to say, we're the only defenders, but you're not allowed to criticize us.
Because every time hate speech laws are being pushed forwards, everyone has an argument against criticizing, against the critics of a regime.
That's what they're doing with those laws.
I thought they had free, just straight up freedom of speech.
They do.
Oh, I'm sorry, I thought it was America.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Constitutionally, they do.
Yeah, so...
Who is actually eroding institutions?
When they're eroding the family, which is the basis of society, they're eroding the political system of the constitution.
Yeah, exactly.
With the borders.
I don't think that the US founding fathers had hate speech laws in the...
The very opposite.
Yeah.
And we have here, we're going to end the segment with this, we have new Gallup poll finds overwhelming majority of US wants new voter integrity laws.
84% want to require all voters to provide photo ID in order to vote, and 83% want to require people who are registering to vote to provide proof of citizen.
So what I love about this, this is great proof that the Democrats' strategy of calling everyone a racist, you're racist, you're Hitler, you're Nazi, you're Mussolini, whatever, this is just a complete bagfire, right?
Because the entire premise of not having voter ID was that it was racist against the black community.
So they're not capable of getting an ID or something?
Yeah, which is obviously not true because everyone has to have a bloody ID in America because they're the land of the free.
And the...
I hate...
I hate the papers, please.
You need an ID to buy a bottle of Coors, for God's sake.
Well, I mean, yeah, but that's alcoholic, isn't it?
Yeah, I'm saying, that's not as important as voting, is it?
Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely not, no.
If you want to go in and buy a car or something, you'd have to show ID. All sorts of things.
Yeah, yeah.
Loads of things.
But the point is, they were like, no, no, voter ID's racist, and now 85% of people want voter ID. It's like, hey, well, there we go.
I think we should end the segment by going back to Anne Applebaum's quote, where she says, nowadays, most democracies fail not because of violence or a coup d'etat, but because of a legitimate elected leader comes to power and begins to dismantle institutions.
And I want people to ask themselves whether this is an almost perfect description of progressivists, because I think that...
Well, yeah, and also, let's say, republics, because they have their differences.
Who is eroding institutions?
Who is dismantling institutions?
Who is attacking the family?
Who is attacking free speech?
Who is attacking the constitution?
Who is attacking the borders?
Because without borders, you can't have family.
Who is attacking public safety?
Who is pushing forward for demonizing critics of the regime?
Keep putting forward really, really radical to the point of insanity for senior judge positions or the top of the Department of Justice or Homeland Security.
Put someone in there that will dismantle any faith in those institutions.
So Pat says, if you put a video camera on a fence pole, it actually knows more than Kamala Harris.
And Glee says, I remember when Hitler got shot, and the Democrats, including AAC and the incumbent Reichskanzler Johann Biden, wished Hitler a speedy recovery.
Yeah, that's a good point.
I mean, if Trump is a demonic, evil, Nazi dictator, why weren't they all saying, oh no, shooting him is bad, you can't do that.
I hope he gets better soon.
Yeah, how come Chuck Schumer went to a comedy roast with Hitler?
Yeah, yeah, literally the other day.
It's just wild, you know.
Sat there moulding as Hitler roasted him.
I just love the desperation of it.
When they start just spurging out and just being like, Hitler, Nazi, meh, meh, meh, meh.
Okay, okay, you're losing and you feel that you're losing.
I get it, you know, I get it.
I'm glad to hear it.
Let's move on.
Was that all the comments?
Yes.
Okay, can you scroll down then on the thing, or up a bit?
Oh, is that it?
Okay, we're there.
Alright, so because it is election fever time, just more talk of Kamala and the Donald, similar-ish overlapping segments, but I also wanted to talk about it.
It's the current thing at the moment.
It is, but it's good.
It's getting closer and closer.
What is it, just about a week out now?
Something like that, yeah.
Not too far away.
Two weeks, something.
So, it looks like the data seems to show that Kamala isn't all that popular with the male demographic, or the white male demographic, the young white male demographic.
Are you sure?
It seems to point that way, could be incorrect, could be wrong, could be wrong, but it looks like just young men are just not interested in her or in the party at all.
Why would they be?
Democrats are like, we hate straight white men.
Straight white men are the problem of everything, just the problem perennially through all of time.
America, American-ness, whiteness is the problem.
Founding fathers, white men, hate them.
Definitely don't like him.
Why would white men not want to be part of this party?
Rip down their statues, including someone like Jefferson or Lincoln even.
The burning head of Robert E. Lee.
Get rid of it.
It's just gone.
Get rid of it.
But we do want your vote though.
We are going to need that vote though.
Also, we're going to replace you with women of colour in every position.
Every possible juncture.
So here's one particular stat.
Jesus.
It's pretty bad.
Young men leaving the Democratic Party.
They've gone from over half to nearly a third of young men.
Quite quickly, since Trump.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know whether it's naivety or just pure stupidity when you know you're burning your bridges, right?
When you demonize whole swathes of the population.
Yeah.
Obviously this is going to happen, obviously.
Yeah, it's good, isn't it?
Yeah, it's great, yeah.
Is that why Trump was playing YMCA at a rally to young men?
Yeah, maybe.
Yeah, yeah, maybe.
If you're a Zuma man, I mean, where are you going?
Yeah.
Yeah, so it's a crying shame.
You hate to see it, right?
That people don't really want to join the Democratic Party when it's not for them.
Even when it was sort of, even when, was it back just before 2016?
No, just before 2020 when it could have been Bernie.
Yes.
Remember when they rigged it to stop Bernie getting it?
Yeah.
And they gave us a Sleepy Joe instead.
Even then, even at that period, I fail to see why any man, particularly a young man, particularly a young white man, would want to have anything to do with the Democratic Party, even then.
There's no need to feel down.
I mean, ancestral guilt would be the...
Well, I actually am.
So with someone like Bernie, you can argue that the young sort of millennial, and presumably probably too early for the Zoomers, but the young white men in America who are dispositionally left-wing...
Might have felt powerless, and Bernie's like, look, I'm going to socialism you into having a house and a job and whatever else, the nice things you want.
Socialism will work this time, bro, trust me.
And so he'll be like, yeah, no, the magic grandpa's going to give me the things I want.
Therefore, I'll join the Democrats and vote for them.
I think of it as a bad couple because you could say that some men may put up with some attitude and they get guilt-shamed.
It's like Norbit.
Yeah, there's a movie.
They're constantly poking them.
How was the character Eddie Murphy was playing of Rasputia?
Yeah, the Democrat Party is like Rasputia to men.
And men are in orbit.
At some point, they're going to say, no, just stop Gil shaming us.
But the positive case, I think, would be the sort of like low status, weak beta type men who the magic grandpa is going to give them a bunch of things through the magic of socialism.
And therefore, I can see why some of them would join the Democrat Party on that one.
Yeah, like that type, that demographic.
Also, I think there's people that they think they know about history and politics, but have just been completely hoodwinked.
I mean, Russell Brand, for example, was a big fan of Bernie Sanders, wasn't he?
Bernie Sanders was a big fan of the Soviet Union, wasn't he?
He lived there for a while, didn't he?
He did.
We went on holiday there.
Suspicious.
He went on his...
Was it his...
His honeymoon?
It was his honeymoon, yeah.
That's weird.
During the actual Soviet period, yeah.
Really weird.
But anyway, anyway.
So, it looks like the young men are leaving in droves.
If you go to the next link...
In Georgia, particularly, which is one of the swing states.
It is.
It looks like support among men is tanking.
What, they don't want to be berated by Kamala Harris?
Weird.
Weird.
She's just unlikable, isn't it?
I mean, yeah.
When she's, like, screeching at the podium, like she was doing the other day, I'm just like, oh, God.
You know, who's voting for four years of that?
You can talk about her shtick of appearing dumb, and the word salad, whether that's legit or not.
You can talk about her inability to sort of understand policy or the world.
Okay, we can talk about that, we can debate that.
But at face value, she's annoying and obnoxious and the cackling thing is terrible.
She doesn't seem very serious and then when she does try to be serious, she seems overbearing and it's just like, oh god.
Unless you're a full-blown partisan, i.e.
you'll vote Democrat, whatever happens, Or if you identify with her, if you are a sort of middle-aged woman of colour, you know, filled with resentment or something, hate America or something like that.
There's going to be a lot of middle-aged white women who want abortions who identify with her.
Oh, right, yeah.
I just need the right to kill my children.
I'm not sure if they're big enough voting blocks to sort of win the White House.
Well, the indications are not positive.
Well, the men of Georgia don't seem particularly up for it.
So you can only assume the inverse is true, that 7 out of 10 are more likely to vote Trump or something like that.
It's going to be sort of 10% who's just like, nah, it's not bothering me.
And the thing is, the polls are interesting, right?
One thing that people always forget about polls is that polls are stated preferences, but they aren't revealed preferences.
So even if 3 in 10 men in Georgia are like, yeah, no, I'm voting for Kamala...
Are they actually going to go and do that, or are they just saying my preference would be for Kamala?
So, yeah, I mean, if you're going to give me a choice, Trump or Kamala, I guess Kamala, but, you know, I hate them both or something, you know.
Are they marching in the streets to go to Kamala rallies?
Are they going to be...
Front and centre, first thing in the line on election day.
Possibly not.
It could well be that they're being asked in the street and they're in the presence of their woke girlfriend or Buma parents.
Yeah, yeah.
And they have to go, oh yeah, yeah, Kamala.
Or just being asked even though it's not really something that's much on their mind.
People lie on polls all the time.
All the time.
All the time.
Okay, if we go to the next link.
In Pennsylvania.
Is this the one?
Yep.
The mail-in...
Oh, before we go on, you mentioned in the last one about voter ID. Obviously, there should be voter ID, and there shouldn't really be any mail-in ballots, I don't think.
Never.
Hardly ever.
Maybe in very, very, very special circumstances where you've been fully, fully vetted that you're highly disabled and cannot get to the ballot box, the voting booth on the day.
Okay, and that'll be a very small number of people.
Other than that, There's a saying...
There should be no mail-in voting.
There's a saying that says democracy is the political system of those who are present.
If you don't show up, you don't get to decide.
It should be anyway, I mean.
If you really physically can't make it on the day, then okay.
But still put something else in place to vote on the day, though.
No, but it's like calling an assembly.
Calling an assembly.
Yeah, I agree.
By the way, there's an election tomorrow.
It's like, oh, is there?
I didn't know.
No, it's everywhere, all the time.
You can't tell on the bloody TV. You can't look at the phone.
You can't look at social media.
It happens every four years on the same day?
Come on now.
There's no excuse.
So assuming there isn't going to be some sort of giant...
What's the word we're allowed to use for it?
Fortification?
Fortification, yeah.
As long as there's not giant fortification...
Well, they would have to be fortifying demons to beat these kind of odds.
The trend looks like, and that's also another important swing state.
That's very important.
So, we'll see.
We'll see how that goes.
But Kamala has got a legion of celebrity backers.
Yep.
Why did he do this?
Well-known, renowned political theorist, Samuel L. Jackson, we all know is steeped in political philosophy, has come out in favour of Kamala.
So many modules on my degree were about Samuel L. Jackson's theories.
The Jacksonian Democrat or something.
The thought of SLJ. It's a whole strand.
Yeah, it's like the evil dude from The King's Man.
You watch loads of films I haven't seen.
Yeah, so he's quite a good actor, but beyond that, an idiot.
By the way, here's a rude word that Kamala Harris likes that I've also said.
Vote for her.
Yeah.
Actually, his point is completely wrong.
He was saying she says the MF word.
That's her go-to curse word.
Now, that's a president I can trust and get behind and believe in.
I'm paraphrasing slightly.
That's not verbatim.
It's like, no.
No, not really.
You don't really want the president swearing excessively.
Yeah, it's probably not ideal, is it?
No, not ideal.
No, that's correct.
No, that's like, yeah.
No, so he's just wrong and an idiot.
Oh, Lizzo says the whole of America will be like Detroit, which is a good thing.
That reminds me of...
Is that a threat or a promise?
Yeah, right.
My whole life, Detroit has been shorthand for a dump.
Yeah, a failure.
Detroit people out there can take me to task on that one.
When I was a kid, I remember when I was a kid, watching Robocop.
We should be more sympathetic to the refugees from Detroit, I think.
Robocop is set in Detroit.
Yeah.
And back then, it was...
Not great, but it's so much worse now.
Yeah.
We looked this up today.
The property prices are unbelievably low because of the kind of place that it is.
Lizzo honestly said, if Kamala wins, then the whole country will look like Detroit.
Yeah, that's what she's saying, yeah.
Can we play it?
Yeah, play it.
It's only like 10-15 seconds or something.
I'm so proud to be from this city.
Why?
You know, they say if Kamala wins, then the whole country will be like Detroit.
Jesus Christ!
If I were Trump, I would put that on an advert and put it on every billboard in the entire United States.
I would want everyone in America to hear this.
No, if Kamala Williams, the whole country is going to look like Detroit, that's the endorsement.
Be aware.
Again, the titanic intellect of Lizzo.
Lizonian Democrats.
It's a different variant.
Playing Madison's or whoever's crystal flute and being like, yeah, so all the country's going to look like Detroit.
Here's the cell.
Getting inspired by Scary Movie 4.
They show the tripod attack on Detroit and they say, this is Detroit and this is Detroit after the attack.
And it's the exact same.
Detroit is like a dystopian hellscape.
No, that would be terrible.
So again, it's the classic thing of sort of double speak, double think.
Just the absolute opposite of what's true.
Brazenly lying.
She wants it that way.
Gaslighting you to make you think Detroit is a great thing.
Well, I mean, for them, maybe, but for me, definitely not.
I think for most Americans, it's like, oh, God, you know.
Is that what you want?
Another son of Detroit who is also steeped in political theory is Marshall Mathers.
Yes, yes he is.
A.K.A. Eminem.
So there he is, stumping for Kamala and the Democrats.
She's going to protect free speech?
Yeah, again, just the complete opposite of reality.
I mean, most hip-hop artists would have a problem with hate speech laws.
Can you imagine DMX with hate speech laws?
To be fair, though, I mean, given the lack of, well, legal oversight that Detroit probably has, there's probably a lot of free speech in Detroit.
There's probably very few people actually policing speech in Detroit.
He's got a point.
I thought Eminem rapped about that the SEC won't let him be.
And he's, you know, I think that's one of his...
Possibly.
One of his rhymes.
I've always disliked Eminem's music.
Always disliked it.
Yeah, I remember when he first came out and he was really big and everyone loved him.
I'm like, this is crap.
I don't mind some of his songs, but I do find rapping and the ability to rhyme is not a very important skill in life.
I just want to say we're not against poetry, generally, are we?
I'm just against Eminem.
I'm not against the entire discipline.
But usually, in my education, you sort of, you teach a small child how to rhyme.
Do you need to teach it?
Yeah, it's something fast.
Yeah, I mean, I can't do it that fast.
I'm sure there's a skill.
Oh yeah, to do it really fast is a skill.
Whether it's of any real value.
I mean, obviously it made him a millionaire, but I mean of true value.
Do you not remember when he was beefing with Trump in 2016?
Yeah, he's got Trump derangement syndrome.
He's had Trump derangement syndrome for years.
Real bad.
In fact, go to the next link and play it.
Play the first...
We only need to watch the first 30 seconds, I say.
I get you.
Too flustered in my head and the shit that I want to say, there's too many things I want to say at once.
So sometimes I start talking and I'm not able to convey the message the right way because I just get flustered and frustrated watching him play to his bass that Thinks that he cares about them.
You don't need to hear him anymore.
Isn't he like 50 years old?
He's got to be knocking that, I would have thought.
But yeah, once again...
Is he dressed like a teenager?
Yeah.
Well, his politics have always been...
Well, that of...
The Dems?
Yeah.
That of the ghetto.
Detroit?
Yeah, backward.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Suck up.
The whole country will look like Detroit.
Jesus Christ, don't say that.
Why are you clapping?
Why are you clapping?
M&M. You listen to what M&M's got to say about international policy and stuff.
Yeah, no, I don't think so.
M&M, well-renowned economist.
What do we do about the war in Ukraine, Marshall?
Yeah.
What are your suggestions for the great game to defeat Russia in Central Asia, Marshall?
Yeah.
Any ideas?
There are so many things.
What about the border crisis?
Anyway, the economy.
Let's talk about the national debt.
You know, I'm sure he's got some greatness.
What is the nature of freedom, Marshall?
I think Harris should have a meeting with lots of hip-hop artists headed by DMX trying to find where the hood at.
They wouldn't be able to find it.
Yeah, yeah.
I bet there are probably a few of them.
So right in the middle of the segment, we have to show some merch.
Yeah, we do.
Because that's when people are most likely to see it.
So we've got a merch store.
I love the, you know, here's the man behind the curtain, says...
Yeah, well, I'd like to be honest.
I'm nothing if not honest.
Very elegant.
Buy a mug.
Buy a t-shirt.
Yeah, it's how we keep the lights on because, of course, we're demonetised everywhere.
It is.
And Islander magazine.
Oh, no.
You can't buy one at the moment.
Get the third one, though, in a few weeks or a couple of months.
Yeah, we're doing a really long stream all night on the night of the 5th to the 6th of November from midnight to 8am our time.
When all the ballots come in, wink wink.
Yeah, hopefully we won't see too much fortification in real time.
Putting up blinds over...
Yeah, so this is Eminem.
This is the person he is.
I.e., a weirdo and a freak and an idiot.
An actual idiot.
Yeah, he can rhyme some words and say them very fast.
Well done.
Well done.
That's immoral.
And why are they...
It's mental.
But that's the message they want to have.
For anyone who's only listening, a quote from Eminem is, being white is so embarrassing, I want to kill myself.
Well, no one's stopping you, mate.
But don't kill yourself.
Yeah, but don't, yeah.
No, don't do that.
Even if you're Eminem, don't kill yourself.
Best not do that.
Just what a...
Weirdo.
Yeah, get him up on the stage.
Listen to him on serious political discussion.
All of these celebrities are real fruitcakes.
They're all weird.
None of them are normal.
You don't need to have their opinion on anything because they think very strange and perverse things.
End of story.
Yeah.
You have to sell your soul to the devil in some way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They become weirdo.
Also, Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney came out for pro-Kamala.
Mainly, I think, because she does whatever neocons would tell her to do.
Go to war with this country.
Do this or that insane, disgusting thing that causes loads of human misery.
And she would just say, yeah, okay, I'll do that then.
So Dick Cheney's on board.
Don't tell everyone that Dick Cheney's endorsing me.
You know, that's the last person that you want.
It's just unfathomable that the Democrats would be thrilled with Dick Cheney's endorsement.
Yeah, I know, it's weird.
It's just baffling, but okay.
So again, for anyone who's only listening and not watching, there's a tweet here from someone saying, in the 70s, Dick Cheney is a war criminal.
80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010, Dick Cheney is a war criminal.
But now, in 2024, because he's endorsed Kamala...
Dick Cheney is now a good guy.
Yeah.
Say, CNN, CBS. It's crazy how...
I mean, from about 2001 onwards, Dick Cheney was honestly synonymous with kind of Satan to the Democrats.
So the fact that they're just like, yeah, hey, we've got Satan's endorsement.
Well, of course they are.
Dick Cheney's going to help us turn America into Detroit.
Oh, brilliant!
He was also one of the least popular Republicans within the party.
And like Kamala Harris, because she was also one of the least popular Democrats.
Well, everyone knows that Dick Cheney was sort of the Eminence Grease behind George Bush Jr.'s throne.
He was pulling...
It was his whole thing.
Iraq and Afghanistan and the axis of evil and the Patriot Act and on and on and on and some other things which you're just simply not allowed to say without getting cancelled.
So, yeah, I think he's a disgusting, evil human being.
Yeah, happy to say that.
But now he's a good guy, because he endorsed Kamala.
How did she pass the bar?
I have no idea.
How is that possible?
I hate to do this, though, but in the interest of time...
Right, yeah, well...
Move on.
Yeah, we can just move on.
I had a few links.
I mean, maybe play one or two of these links.
Well, I am certainly not perfect.
She's asked what her weaknesses are.
And...
This is what she says.
I think that...
Perhaps a weakness, some would say, but I actually think it's a strength, is I really do value having a team of very smart people around me who bring to my decision-making process different perspectives.
My weakness is my advisors are too clever.
They're too wise, Stelios.
That's my weakness as well.
She's playing like a 4D chess game, pretending to be dumber than she is.
That doesn't make any sense on the face of it, but I honestly don't see it.
Maybe not.
This is someone struggling to...
Look, I'm not going to commit to it.
Okay, okay.
Alright.
I was just speculating, but then, yeah, that is really dumb.
Play a little bit of the next one.
Again, you only need a few seconds.
You told many interviewers that Joe Biden was on his game, that ran around circles on his staff.
When did you first notice that President Biden's mental faculties appeared diminished?
Joe Biden?
I have watched from the Oval Office to the Situation Room.
And he has the judgment and the experience to do exactly what he has done in making very important decisions on behalf of the American people.
- Joe Biden is not on the ballot.
- I understand.
- And Donald Trump is.
- But you talked about it.
- And Donald Trump is.
- Okay, she's really dumb.
I mean, it's weird, isn't it, that you go from someone like Joe Biden, who...
I mean, once upon a time, back in the 70s, I didn't ever agree with his politics, but he was a force to be reckoned with.
If you see clips from him...
No, he's not.
He's evil.
Right.
So to go from that and say, what's worse than this dementia-ridden sort of decrepit thing?
I think this is sort of worse.
I mean, she's dumber than George Bush.
George Bush Jr, I mean.
He was famously dumb.
But he was likeable.
Yeah, he was kind of likeable.
But he could actually, from time to time, he could actually string together an argument.
Yeah, like...
I see people try to outfox him in an interview, and he would sometimes, in fact often, hold his own in a kind of dumb, shallow way.
She's not even doing that.
People forget that he arranged a peace negotiation between man and fish.
Which was incredible.
There's a great quote of George Bush and he comes out and says, I believe that man and fish can coexist peacefully.
It's like...
There's loads of quotes from George Bush Jr.
that are hilarious.
He was a moron.
He was a moron.
We will win the war on fish.
He was sort of at the lower end of moronic.
She's off the charts in my opinion.
It's just word salad.
I don't think she's capable...
Of engaging with complex arguments at all.
To be honest, I think she was mostly trying to dodge these questions because, you know, give me one of your weaknesses is like, get some broke, hang yourself.
So she tried to dodge that bullet.
It's an interview question.
Give me one reason why I shouldn't hire you.
All she's got, it seems to me, is non-sequiturs and word salad.
That's all she's got.
So, okay, I was going to talk a bit about Trump, but there's no need to, really.
Other than that, well, Newsweek just says that young people...
We'll just see the headline.
Young people are going for Trump a bit.
Trump being like, hey, guys, you know the American stuff you do because I'm an American?
Let's be Americans together.
And young people are like, yeah, not bad.
Trump's like, yeah, I'm not going to turn the country into Detroit.
Huh.
I like the cut of this guy's jib.
But also, just the general state of the debate.
And this isn't a specific pop at the United States.
We've got exactly the same thing in the UK. But if you go to the next link, it's news that Lady Gaga's dead!
It's chimed in on it.
Lady Gaga's dad.
I was undecided until now.
I really need to know what Ja Rule and Lady Gaga's dad think.
Before I can make up my mind.
Okay, we'll leave it there because I've maybe gone a little bit over.
Fingers crossed for the Donald.
I just can't believe they would honestly say, yeah, we're going to turn all of America into Detroit.
I'd be like...
That's the worst selling point I've ever heard.
Yeah, what a mad thing.
Yeah, I mean, if they were like, we're going to turn all of America into Vermont, I'd be like, okay, I'm listening, you know.
What's the crime rate in Vermont?
What's home ownership in Vermont?
Probably quite high, well, low and then high, respectively.
But it just sounds like a threat.
It does, yeah.
We're here to ruin you.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what they're saying.
I think maybe she would like to think that most people just don't know anything, never heard of what Detroit is actually like.
Or that in her mind it's some sort of multicultural heathen?
It's a triumph of diversity.
Boss Neeson says, insult George W one more time and I will amass 10,000 my fellow Texans and make 2025 as famous as 1066.
Okay, fair enough.
Yeah, he's a complete idiot.
No, no, no, hang on.
We can...
Right, so George Bush had a good golf drive.
Excellent at dodging shoes.
That's fair.
You know, look at this drive.
It was good.
Dodges shoes like a pro.
He's never been hit by a shoe.
Not once.
You know, this could have been someone who's trying to assassinate him or something with a gun, but no, he's just out of the way.
And apparently he does painting now.
So, yeah, so there we go.
There's three nice things I can say about George Bush.
Did you ever see the film W? Hang on, sorry, just this quick thing.
I actually think that 10,000 Texans taking over Britain would be a good thing.
Yeah, I'll take it out of the Labour Party.
Yeah, now I've done that.
Don't let me dissuade you.
Yeah, yeah, feel free.
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.
I'll take it.
I know.
If Britain could be run as Texas was run, then that would be a damn sight better than what we've got.
Anyway, so, there are lots of people in the world who don't really know how many white people exist.
And so when a chap like this goes around and asks, how many white people do you think there are in the world, you get some very strange responses.
What percent of the world's population is white?
63.
42.
51.
70.
40.
30 or 20.
70.
80.
24 percent.
72.
20.
30.
43.
24.
20.
30.
80 percent.
Zero.
What if I told you it was seven percent?
Zero?
Only seven?
Seven percent.
Only seven percent?
Yeah.
No way!
The whole world!
Your white people are like, top of the world!
Seven percent.
Seven?
What? - Seven to eight percent is one. - That's not true.
No, it's not.
It's below 10%.
Nah, that's...
Yeah.
Buzzy deed.
Shit.
And I'm about to be a teacher.
Don't learn from me, brother!
No, it's a real...
It's below 10%.
Some estimates put it at 7% to 8%.
What's this 6 on?
Ausbill.
So, there aren't that many white people on Earth compared to other groups of people.
I actually spent a little bit of time checking this, and honestly, it's hard to know if that is correct.
That does feel a touch low.
I could imagine it's 10 or 15, but 7 does seem low.
It depends how you're defining white, basically.
Do the Argentinians get to be white?
If so, then there are more white people than otherwise.
If you're defining white as I define it, which is Northwest European Protestants, there are hardly any.
The Greeks knocked out.
No.
We count ourselves as white, but whatever.
I mean, people are allowed to have the...
I've got heists.
People are allowed to entertain them.
I've got restrictive criteria.
The really, really pale Japanese people that are actually a lighter shade of white than you are.
Some of us have the Trump tan.
Slams are not white, you know.
Most of France isn't white.
So I've got a matter of how you define it.
Exactly, it's how you define it, and I define it correctly.
But the more broad definition of who a white person is actually puts us at about 16%.
But that's still very low.
So 84% of the rest of the world is still obviously not from European heritage.
And this is a surprise to a lot of people, as you can see.
They're just like, what, really?
I had no idea.
It's like, yeah, you had no idea.
And before we go on, I just want to point out this entire segment is pertinent to the question of critical race theory.
And if you don't know anything about critical race theory, go to the website, sign up, and just watch my critical race theory explained video that I, it was a talk I delivered at the German parliament a couple of years ago, actually, explaining what critical race theory is, what What the purpose of it is, where it's come from, the way it envisages the world, and envisages the world in racial demographic blocks based on power dynamics.
And so the assumption is always that the majority, quote-unquote, are oppressing the minority.
Okay, well, if that's A localized perspective that's on, say, Wales.
The Welsh are always oppressing any minorities that are in Wales.
But we live in a globalized world.
We live in an international world.
And it turns out that when you zoom out and you look at the globe, you realize that white people are actually a very small minority.
Also, I thought we were supposed to be colourblind.
Well, yeah.
I thought that was the PCT. Critical race theory has destroyed that.
Oh, okay.
Now we're not.
Now, they don't have to be colourblind.
This is explicitly the philosophy of destroying colourblindness.
I mean, I've got a lot of work on critical race theory, and there's a big book that's about this thick that was edited by Kimberley Crenshaw.
You can see that.
And she's got a few essays of her writing in it.
But there are explicit essays in there against colourblindness, right?
Because the idea of colourblindness essentially is to...
Preserve and create an illusionary sort of veil over what is otherwise white supremacy.
But anyway, so, the BBC was recently asking, should we drop ethnic minority for global majority?
And I saw lots of people saying, well, this is ridiculous.
But to that I say, of course we should.
Because that way, Stelios is oppressing me.
Sorry, Stelios, I'm joking.
Why did you have to say it on air?
Why do you have a safe?
I'm going to get impressed even more.
No, just joking.
Like in the back office, Stadios gets you in nuggies and gives you dead arms.
Basically, yes.
But we'll use white to just mean person of European descent.
So we'll very generously bring the Spanish and the Italians on board.
So anyone of European extraction, basically.
Because again, I hate using colour terms, right?
This is actually very, very inaccurate.
But if you would say people who have a heritage from Europe, well, now you can very clearly define who you're talking about and who you're not talking about.
People who have a South Asian heritage or something like that, you can very clearly delineate who you're actually referring to.
And we can actually explain that these are not all the same people.
But what they do in this, and of course what the very notion of a kind of quote-unquote global majority does, separates the world into two races, the whites and the browns.
And we're not the browns, so welcome to the white race.
We're all whites now if you're from Europe, so well done Italians.
You made it.
Made the cut.
Yeah, you made the cut.
But unfortunately, what that means is there are literally billions of...
Again, I don't even know what I'm calling them.
Browns?
Blacks?
I mean, I don't know what I'm calling them.
The global south, numbering their billions...
Oh, I don't want to be a part of the group then.
Well, I mean, lots of people are.
But I've already suffered from this, Carl.
I don't even know what we're supposed to do with this, really.
Okay, so we're going to go through this article quite extensively because it's genuinely Baffling, actually.
They say, over the past few years, numerous organisations, as well as the UK government, have dropped the acronym BAME, which stands for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic.
While other terms such as ethnic minority and people of colour are still routinely used, another appears to be building momentum.
People of the global majority.
It's like, oh, okay, that's interesting.
Because that frames them as having de facto greater power than we of the global minority.
As if we live in a global democracy.
Exactly.
But also that, yeah, as if we live in a global democracy.
But then that...
Makes the people of European heritage in their own countries suddenly, well, being oppressed by the global majority who are taking advantage of them in some ways.
I imagine, though, they will then flip the script where they don't care about the rights and the oppression of the minority anymore.
They'd have to.
But then we can agree.
They just flip the script.
They don't care, do they?
Again, but then at least we can agree, that's right, we don't care about the oppression of minorities.
So, if we're going to talk about what happens in Britain, well, we agree with you.
Plus, I personally, as a Whiteman, I... Yes, you are, yeah.
I would...
Well, grey eyes, blondish, weird.
Pale as a movie bar kid.
I don't want to be sort of the victim of being...
What comes with being a minority is that you're the victim of oppression by definition.
I reject all of that.
Yeah, me too.
I'm in the minority, so...
But let's carry on.
The global majority, again...
As if there's some great coalition, right?
As if the Indians and the Chinese and the Africans are like, we need to get together, lads, against the Europeans.
Native Peruvians, native Australian Aborigines, Bangladeshis and Sub-Saharan Africans are completely on the same page.
They're basically the same people.
They're all of one mind.
They're basically one hive mind.
But that's, of course, the problem with a term like this.
They say the global majority refers to people who are black, Asian, brown, dual heritage, indigenous to the global south, and who have been racialized as ethnic minorities and represent approximately 80% of the world's population, according to educator and activist Rosemary Campbell Stevens, who coined the term.
Okay, well done.
Activist.
So, insane race grifting, critical race theorist, basically.
So it's White versus Brown, according to this conception.
And the BBC is like, yeah, I need to start promoting this.
I need to get this in the minds of people.
Of course they do, yeah.
Of course they do.
The British Broadcasting Corporation is like, you know what I need to advance?
The global majority.
Because that's what social justice is.
Advancing majorities against minorities.
That's where we are.
Have you ever seen black supremacists that don't like being called brown or referred to as brown?
They want to be known as black.
Oh, well, they're not happy with this either.
I wouldn't have thought so, yeah.
They're black and proud.
Yeah, well, I mean, good for them.
Yeah, sure.
Campaigner Donna Alley said that she liked the term, but it does have pros and cons, right?
So, the pros are, it speaks to unity, it gives you prominence, and I think it helps us feel not less than.
No, well now you have to start being concerned about minority rights, right?
Because everything about our society now is about minority rights.
So you have to start being considerate towards the minority white population of the world.
Do you not?
They're just going to flip the script.
I know, I know.
I know you're reasoning, you're logic, but they will just immediately flip the script.
She's the founder of B.Excellence, a community interest group that aims to raise the representation of black, Asian, and minority ethnic people in powerful positions in Wales.
So, I mean, like, in Wales, in Wales, where the global minority live, Well this just sounds like it's a colonisation project of the global majority over the global minority, doesn't it?
And the powerhouse that Wales is on the international stage?
Don't talk Wales down.
They've been oppressed for so many years by the global majority.
Isn't that crazy?
We just want non-Welsh people to not be in power in Wales.
We want to take the Welsh out of powerful positions in Wales, whatever that means, and we want them to just be from the global south.
Well, that would be oppression, wouldn't it?
That would be the majority oppressing the minority from your own definition.
So just a thought, maybe we should not be in favour of oppression.
Because they say, of course, the word minority can make you feel like you are less than, that you are the least, when in reality we are more in terms of numbers.
Oh, right, it's just a raw power game now, right?
It's just what it boils down to.
It's always so funny to me when they do it in Ireland, or Sweden, or Wales, or something like that, or Scotland.
Finland?
Yeah.
Finland needs diversity.
Why?
Because of colonialism?
Because in somewhere like America, that's always been, well not always, but has been a melting pot for a long time, and has been proud of it before this current strain of wokeism and anti-whiteness.
Or somewhere like Turkey, for example, always been a crossroads of the world, for example.
And a great empire.
But Wales!
It's so absurd.
The Republic of Ireland.
Wales was a part of the British Empire, so you would argue from that perspective.
But when it comes to somewhere like, you know, Denmark or something, it's like, what did Denmark do?
I've got my grievances against Denmark.
They are over a thousand years old and it's not your problem, so, you know.
Yeah, the bloody jukes.
I still haven't got over it.
Yeah, exactly.
It's been a while.
You know, we had a Danish king a thousand years ago.
I'm not happy about it.
I think one of the reasons they're doing it is because after the fall of the Berlin Wall, communists embraced globalism.
And that's why they're talking about the global south and the global majority, global minority, because...
They want to talk about redistribution and distribution for the poor on a worldly scale.
That's why a lot of people who you could say aren't rich in the West, they count as rich for globalists.
So they're saying we're going to extract money from you and give it to the globally poor.
Well, the global majority.
Marx and Engels, their vision was always on a global scale.
The Comintern, the Internationale.
The Comintern was always sort of a global scale project.
It wasn't just a rhetorical flourish when they said workers of the world unite.
It has always been part of the plan.
Anyway, so, I guess we can then summarise Donna's position here as just a racial takeover of Wales by the global majority.
I mean, that seems to be exactly how they're describing it.
I don't think I'm being unfair with them.
They're not even sugarcoating it anymore, are they?
Yeah, they're not sugarcoating it at all.
I'm not exaggerating that either, because that's literally what she's arguing for on those terms.
So it's like, right, that seems evil and colonialist.
I mean, that's like the British Empire taking over India or Africa or something.
It's a racial conquest.
Okay, that's just her job.
She's got a company that does this, and this is what we do.
This is the goal.
Okay, that's very bold of you to take the mask off.
Now, it's not about equality.
It's about racial takeover.
Okay, I'm against racial takeovers.
I actually don't think we should have British rulers of India, for example, In the same way that I don't think we should have black, Asian, minority, ethnic rulers of Wales.
India for the Indians.
Yeah, I'm such a throwback, honestly.
Wales for the Welsh.
I'm very far right like that.
There's not enough Congolese in Port Talbot.
There's just not...
I mean, that's actually your argument, yeah.
There's not enough Sri Lankas in Aberystwyth.
But there is a case against it.
There's a case against it.
She says, it puts everyone in one lump.
What it says to me is them and us, and I hate that, it shouldn't be about everyone black and brown on one side and whites on the other side.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Yes, you do look ridiculous, but when has that ever stopped you?
This is literally your job, and you're like, yeah, well, this is ridiculous.
Yes.
You are a ridiculous person.
You have a ridiculous job.
Normally, that would be the argument against doing it.
But this is your job.
This is what you do.
So, okay.
I guess we'll move on.
So, author and academic Darren Chetty featured here...
Also thought the term had benefits and drawbacks.
He said that he likes that it reframes the idea that people of colour, or people who aren't white, constitute the majority of the people in the world.
That can, I guess, have a psychological boost to people.
It can also highlight, when there's an absence of people of colour, just how jarring it is given global demographics, says Darren who grew up in Swansea.
Right.
So a BBC journo went to Wales, presumably Swansea, maybe Cardiff, found a bunch of race grifters who hate white people, and like, I just want the global majority to take over Wales, and then interviewed them for this piece.
But that is very exclusive, because what about gay people?
Well, they're definitely...
They're not the majority.
Definitely not, no.
So if they're saying that all the non-whites are the majority and they feel good because they're the majority, they're doing this at the expense of the gay community.
Yeah, but I mean, I find Darren's perspective here particularly interesting.
I went to Swansea, and I found that everyone was part of the global minority.
We need the global majority in here quick.
It's like, why?
Madness.
Runny-mead, trust-style madness.
Yeah, absolutely.
I don't, you know, go to the Amazon and be like, oh my god, there's members of the global majority here.
Quick, I better get some global minorities in, because this is weird.
How could people in the Amazon be living without us?
Everything was fine without you.
It's fine.
You're the majority.
Actually, most of the world is run by people who look like you, not like me.
So that's okay.
And I'm totally cool with it.
And you could go there, like Idris Elba is like, oh, I'm going back to Africa.
Why?
Oh, okay.
I mean, great.
Have fun.
It's like going to Bogota and saying there aren't enough Welsh male choirs in Bogota.
Probably true.
We've got to get some in.
We've got to get a load of Welshies into Sao Paulo.
There aren't enough Welshies to be able to get some in.
Three million of them.
The global majority is billion strong.
We can't have the Welsh ruling class of the world.
It's just not enough.
Anyway, moving on.
Another thing as well, this shows just how much of a minority things are, right?
Like, if you're literally saying, right, Wales is hardly any of the global majority in Wales.
So, yeah, but there are only three million Welsh.
Welsh is a small place.
Wales is a small place.
Very small.
Like, the global majority is about six billion, seven billion people, something like that.
Like, what's the plan here?
How are the Welsh going to hold back the tide?
There's not a lot they're going to do.
A lot of it's Snowdonia and valley country, isn't it?
They've got Cardiff.
It's a reasonable-sized city.
Yeah, that's it.
That's their only big city.
Swansea's all right, I suppose.
Yeah, Swansea, yeah, yeah.
They've got to get all the way up to Snowdonia.
Anglesey.
There's not enough people of colour in Anglesey.
Fishguard.
Yeah.
Where the French landed.
The term people of the global majority was brought to prominence by Rosemary Campbell Stevens, an educator and anti-racist activist of black Caribbean heritage.
Now, one thing I can't help but notice in all of this is that it is...
Self-interesting that they do this.
It's not abstract.
And it's the same way with all of the identity hustling.
It's always a person who is a representative of that category.
So they may as well just say, I want that.
I would like that.
Why?
Because you need a representative of the global majority.
You mean you.
You mean you.
You want you to do it.
I want your country destroyed.
Just say, I want.
And then we can have a much more honest conversation.
You get the odd one that is like a Robin D'Angelo, someone like that, who's just...
A Catholic.
Just truly mad.
Yeah.
Someone, D'Angelo.
Yes, hello, fellow white people.
Right Italian.
But what does this mean that if the global majority came and voted and said that we want Europe to be destroyed, that we should allow Europe to be destroyed?
Absolutely not.
I mean, we're going to have to argue for minority rights.
But anyway, so Rosemary came to this through her work to diversify leadership at London schools.
So they went to London in England, a country of the global minority.
I'm like, no, we need more global majority here because we need to, what, oppress the minority?
What's the argument for it?
As soon as you frame it in terms of, well, the native Europeans are the global minority, suddenly there's no real good argument as to why the global majority should take it over.
If anything, we should have a little nature preserve, like we do with the Amazonian tribes.
Here's how I think they'll probably flip the script, harking back to Robin DiAngelo again, to say, oh, forget about minorities and majorities and everything.
Whiteness is evil.
Forget about the numbers involved.
There's something intrinsically wrong with whiteness.
That's how they'll just flip it to that.
Yeah, and they're right, it's our cooking.
But the thing is, once you're acclimatized to it, you kind of like it and it becomes normal for you.
You don't need that many spices.
Anyway, so they carry on.
When the National Council of Voluntary Organizations adopted the term last year, it said it was using the term in place of BAME, BIPOC, and other ethnic minorities.
I mean, like, BAME and BIPOC feel a bit dehumanizing, don't they?
So I think we should have them replace it with global majority.
It's just boring after a while.
It's just boring.
I enjoy it.
But anyway, so we've heard from many people who consider these terms outdated and problematic, therefore, and Yuck McGurr never caught on, as it's not very catchy.
And when the National Museum's Liverpool made the change, it said it was more reflective and empowering.
That's right.
We're all about empowering the majority.
That's social justice.
Empowering majorities.
I was going to go on about how Starmer is giving in to all of this, but honestly I don't think we have time.
Really, this just seems to be about colonising England and Wales from the global majority.
At least the mask is off at this point, right?
This is just completely open.
No, this is what we're going to do.
We want the global majority in charge of your countries.
You, being the global minority, can just suck it.
It's like, oh, okay, well, finally we're arriving at the position of pure honesty, which is good.
And this kind of went under the radar.
A lot of people didn't really read through this.
It's like, hang on, there's a lot here that...
I mean, I think they're serious.
So you need to think about it.
Of course they definitely are, yeah, yeah.
People like the Running Me Trust or Lisa Nandy will be over the moon.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I have been saying for a long time, I think that this is disguised power politics.
It's not disguised.
Everything about critical race theory...
Now it's not, but...
No, no, no, it wasn't disguised before.
Critical race theory explicitly considers power to be a core component of all of the things that they talk about.
So racism, sexism, homophobia...
Power, they literally say, power plus prejudice is their formulation.
So power is an explicit component of everything they do.
I mean, you've got right to the nub of it, and you're absolutely correct, but Celos is also right that a lot of people pretended that wasn't really the case, didn't they?
Yes.
They pretended it was just about fairness and stuff.
True believers, and yeah, don't buy it.
But there are also going to be a lot of woke 2000s shitlibs who, for themselves, they've never read anything, they've never listened to anything.
And this is going to hit them like the Carol Vordermans of the world, right?
Gary Linekers.
The Gary Linekers.
The Jimmy Carrs.
I just wanted to do nice things.
It's like, you want a charity.
That's what you wanted, right?
And that's fine.
You should do charity.
You should do charity.
But that's not what this is.
This is actually a very, very evil beast, you know, wearing a very pretty face.
But now the mask is off, and you can see they literally just want racial power against the global minority.
I mean, they'll literally tell you this.
When are you going to start listening?
OPHUK says, the world did get together and organize against those damn whites and their damn white shenanigans.
It's called the United Nations.
Squiarch says, put this towards the light bill.
Thank you very much.
We have to pay for the lights.
And Glee says, I'm pleased to have received Islander 2 this morning, two pages in, and I'm already hooked.
I've also ordered Tommy Robinson's latest book manifesto.
Thank you very much.
Issue 3 of Islander is going to be wonderful.
I already know what I'm going to The winter edition.
The winter edition.
Winter is coming.
It is.
But we are reaching this sort of point where it's...
Essentially, when you're being completely dispossessed in the way that we are, you've got to do a lot of soul-searching and a lot of inward-looking, so all you've got left.
And The Wanderer is the Anglo-Saxon poem I'm going to cover, and it's very, very much about that.
It's very soulful.
By the way, if there's any Anglo-Saxon scholars in the chat listening, or you know anyone, get them to get in touch with us at contactofthelegacies.com.
I would like to speak to you about making sure that I properly understand the translations, right?
Because there are lots of words where there are lots of different translations, and basically I want to ask someone.
The actual linguist?
Yeah, the actual linguist.
I want to make sure that I'm properly interpreting things.
I think Tom Rosehill, I'm not sure how good he is, but I know he knows some of that stuff at least.
Really?
I don't want to play him down either.
No, I don't know.
But I know he certainly knows some stuff.
I will DM him.
Yeah.
Right.
Do we have video comments today?
Jack.
He looked like he was speaking into the mic, but we didn't hear you, Jack.
No.
No.
Right, okay.
It's a no.
Okay, that's good.
Sneeda says, just want to say, love me Lotus Eaters every morning I listen to the show while in my office.
The best and only subscription I pay for.
Keep up the awesome job, lads.
Thank you very much.
Matthew says, glad to catch the podcast live for the first time.
Keep up the excellent work, gents, and keep making it worth more than it to subscribe to you guys.
Make sure to give Father Calvin a raise for the exceptionally exceptional work.
God bless you all.
Thank you very much.
Mr. Nobody says, I see some states already laying the foundations for fortifications, saying it will take them weeks to count the votes.
Not suspicious at all.
It's like, whenever there is any extended delay to the count, just assume shenanigans.
That's how I feel.
Every American election I ever watched, apart from the last one, has either sorted out that day, that night, that evening and that night in the wee hours of American time, or the one example when it wasn't was George Bush in 2000.
That's because it was genuinely super, super, super close against Al Gore.
But other than that, and the last one, they're always sorted straight away.
But I suspect, my prediction is that it won't be, yeah, we won't, by 8am our time, the next morning, it won't be clear.
Yeah.
And a bunch of places will have stopped counting for reasons.
Like, in the previous one where there was, where was it that had the burst water pipe?
Oh, I can't remember.
Was it somewhere like Philadelphia?
Or Minnesota.
I can't remember.
And it was just like, oh, there's a burst water main, so we've stopped the count.
Did anyone hear about that?
Was there a flood?
Were the ballots okay?
The pipes weren't winterised.
Exactly, they weren't winterised!
And that just went away and no one asked any follow-up questions about it.
It was just like, oh, okay.
You know, one of the things I remember most that sticks out in my mind, sticks in my craw, is there was some sort of, there was a big counting room, and there was another room to the side of the big counting room, and there was big windows, like windows you've got there.
And they boarded them up, or they were putting blankets up or something or other.
So outside, third-party observers couldn't see what they were doing.
There's absolutely no reason to do that, ever.
Not anything even remotely close to that.
Can you imagine what the excuse must have been?
Like, go on, give me a reason.
Give me the excuse.
There isn't one.
And they were, like, refusing to allow Republican poll watchers in.
There was, of course, the F ballot dumps where suddenly 130,000, 100% Biden ballots turned up.
Oh, wow.
4am.
Just in the right counties.
Yeah.
Just...
What a coincidence.
The palest son of your cube says, if you reread that 2020 election fortification article, it mentions that pollsters were needed to prime people for a Biden victory.
Harder to sell the fortification if the polls are this good for Trump.
Yeah, that's another thing.
A lot of Republicans were very...
I know a lot of Trump supporters, especially online, were very disheartened by this being like, oh, look...
They're just going to rig it.
They're going to rig it.
I mean, it looks like it's going to be just too big to rig this time, doesn't it?
It's just like, no, Kamala's...
It's conceivable that Biden could win an election.
It's conceivable that Biden, as a Democrat, could win...
A presidential election.
He was the vice president, he was with Obama, he's got a lot of goodwill, he's very experienced, whether you like him or not, obviously.
Yeah, been a senator for decades, yeah.
Exactly, decades of experience.
Exactly, he is at least semi-persuasive that he could win, even though obviously they cheated to get him in.
It's plausible.
Whereas Kamala Harris is not plausible at all.
She's obviously not competent.
Whether she's an idiot or not, she's unlikable.
She doesn't have the kind of historic network that Joe Biden has.
And yet she's been pushed to the front of our...
Good luck.
And it's just like, okay, you're going to get crushed.
We're not on YouTube anymore, are we?
No.
I was just saying then...
Yeah, they stole it, obviously.
They almost don't care about plausibility, like the number of bullets that were flying around Dealey Plaza or World Trade Center Building 7.
It doesn't have to be plausible, even, does it?
But they're not in full control of the system, that's the thing, right?
So they're going to...
Interfere with small parts of the system, but if the rest of it is just a landslide for Trump, they'll just be like, oh, that didn't work.
And I expect that it will.
They would just have to cheat big.
They'd have to cheat on a giant scale this time, I would have thought.
It would have to be colossal, because remember last time, Trump got something like, was it 61 million or something like that?
I can't remember what he got originally.
And then he got another 14 million votes in 2020, and Joe Biden's still beaten because he got 81 million.
Most popular president of all time.
Ever to have lived.
Most popular president of the black community as well.
Not the first black president, but anyway.
But the point being, Trump organically increased his share by 14, 15 million votes.
Like, that is staggering.
What if it's even higher this time?
What if it's 20 million?
It's like, you know, it could be just...
And I do think it will be just unrealistic to rig it at this point.
Yeah, I hope so.
I mean, fingers crossed.
Fingers crossed.
Alfred the Bater says, the spastic screeching of Kamala Harris and the Democrat machine calling Trump Hitler shows the party has no strategy to counter his message, beside inciting violence towards him, which of course they do on a daily basis.
Yeah, Trump coming out at the same time in the McDonald's uniform, serving fries.
It's just genius.
It's just, optically, it's just genius.
It's just funny.
It's not just funny though.
It's wholesome, right?
It's organic.
It's something traditionally American.
And Trump obviously had a good time doing it.
He obviously likes McDonald's food, right?
And so they're like, ah, Trump, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, and Trump's just there with fries.
It's like, the optics are just perfect.
It's so good.
It's so non-threatening.
It's almost like he's got a Hulk Hogan t-shirt underneath.
Well, Hulk Hogan's behind him, isn't he?
Okay, actually, yeah, yeah.
Base Ape says, "No offence to Trump, but he's honestly not intelligent enough to be Hitler.
Not to sound like I'm complimenting Hitler, but he was extremely intelligent and fully understood the well-established ideologies of the time.
Trump's appeal is that he's really just as simple as he seems.
He genuinely does seem to want to build his big, beautiful wall out of Legos and make sure everyone is rich enough to eat all the crayons they want." I like that in a manner.
It's humble.
Yeah, that's what draws you to, you know.
Again, I'll take it.
Unpretentious.
There was something John Bolton, I saw John Bolton did an interview with BBC Hard Talk a few days back.
And he said, his take is, because he was Trump's foreign policy advisor for a while, or national security, whatever it was, in his inner circle.
And he said, I'm not voting for Trump.
I can't bring myself to vote for Trump.
I'm not voting for Kamala Reva.
I'm not going to do a Dick Cheney and start shilling for the Dems or anything.
But the main reason why I won't vote for Trump, obviously it's just he's sour about getting dumped, but he said he is dumb.
Great.
Good.
I don't want him to think excessively about solutions, because the great thing about Trump is that he just trusts his gut, and his gut is in the interests of America.
I want my country to do well.
Okay, I don't need him to have a mathematical understanding of everything that's happening.
No, just close the bloody border.
Why are we talking about this?
And to be clear, I'm not just completely agreeing with John Bolton's analysis.
I think John Bolton is as evil, if not more so, than Dick Cheney.
I hate John Bolton.
Wow, that's quite a condemnation.
Yeah, yeah.
You're more evil than Dick Cheney.
Yeah.
How do you get more evil than Satan?
It's difficult, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not easily done.
But the point is, I don't want Trump to be super intelligent.
I want Trump to have the best interest of America at hand.
Which he seems to have proven, he has proven that he has.
Exactly, there's just no question of it.
George says, when Trump wins, I want a clip of drunk Mel Gibson shouting freedom.
I saw Mel Gibson was being followed by TMZ or something.
And he was like, who are you voting for?
Which is where he's like, Kamala's got the IQ of a brick or something.
And he's just like, who do you think I'm voting for?
I said, yeah, we know.
Mel Gibson, like, arch-patriot.
Chase says, what do all of these celebrity endorsements have in common?
I reckon they all appear on a certain client list that we may very well get to peek at if the opposition is to win.
Yeah, how many of them arrived at diddy parties?
Epstein, Ireland.
Elon retweeted someone that had a Venn diagram of people that are on Epstein's list, people that are on Diddy's list.
Where they cross over, they're people that are suddenly really pro-Harris Waltz.
He's been going really hard at it, which is really great.
Like, totally mainstreaming, no, they're a pedo cabal of weirdos.
That's literally Elon Musk's public position on the Democrats at this point.
Which is great, to be honest.
Omar says something similar, but we've just covered it, so I'll skip on.
Frey Bentos for every Haitian.
Again, I think that's something we could do.
Someone just, that's all they're commenting?
No, that's their name.
Oh, even funnier.
Even funnier.
Brilliant.
Just as a quick aside, I love Frey Bentos.
Yeah, I know you do, yeah.
I really like that.
Yeah, alright, I'm partial to a Freybentos, I wouldn't say no.
The pastry, I haven't had one for a few years.
They cook right.
Yeah, yeah, if they cook right, the pastry goes flaky, the filling is not bad, and it's easy.
You just, you know, can open the top, put it in the oven, come out half an hour later, however long it is, and boom, you have yourself a good, solid meal.
This is not sponsored by Freybentos, but if you want sponsorship, get in touch.
I will shield Freybentos, right?
It's like a pot needle, or super needles, or something.
Yeah, it's not, it's not, it's not, it's not a cordon bleu.
But it's, it's...
I'll take it.
It's perfectly good.
It's full of fat.
It's full of meat.
It's, you know, covered in pastry.
How can you go wrong?
Gravy, so...
Yeah.
And also, because they're baked in tins, they last forever.
So actually, getting Haitians Freybentos is a plausible plan that we could do to cure hunger.
If you're a prepper, fill up your spare room with Freybentos.
Yeah, absolutely.
Like Twinkies in America, these are the British food that's going to survive the apocalypse.
But anyway, Freybentos for every Haitian says, All of America will become Detroit, all of Britain will become Milton Keynes.
The future painted by the left is truly bright.
I know, it's mad, isn't it?
Absolutely mad.
ArizonaDesertRat says, well, at least some young men have sense.
For the most part, my nephews have all taken on the conservative slash classical liberal ideals, and they're all 15 to 20 years old.
Michael says, Stelios just randomly quoting YMCA and flying under the radar.
Yeah, I did before because we showed on the first segment Trump dancing at YMCA, and then you said about young men leaving.
I found the lyrics, started quoting.
I absolutely love the apparent trend that Zoomers or younger are right-leaning.
That actually gives me hope, right?
In a world of near despair, that's actually...
Why would you want to be left-leaning?
What's in it for you?
