Speaking to Matthew Mason.
By the way, how old are you?
I'm 17. So, do you...
I feel bad asking this, because if you don't feel this, I don't want to put it in your brain, but do you feel that America is in a severe crisis?
Somewhat.
I mean, it'll depend, you know, what happens over the next couple of years.
But I really feel that if the Republican Party becomes very secular, then I'm really going to be worried because then there's not going to be any large enough organization to put forward Judeo-Christian values.
So if that happens, I'll get really worried.
So you're aware that at almost every college you get up and introduce yourself and give your preferred pronoun?
Are you aware of that?
I was not aware of that.
Okay, so to a certain extent, and by the way, I'm actually happy about it.
To a certain extent, being homeschooled, you've been insulated from these developments.
Yeah, I guess so.
Right.
So you have, and I'm happy that you do, a largely optimistic view that we can't overcome what's happening.
And I'm not saying you shouldn't.
Anyway, I wish you luck.
I hope we meet one day.
And I thank you for joining Prager Force.
Thank you.
It's great to be here.
Thank you.
I would like to have a panel of...
It might also be that he's in Tennessee and not California or New York.
And I suspect it's not Nashville.
I don't know where Brentwood, Tennessee is.
It would interest me to find out the average homeschooled student in different areas of the country, are they aware of the assault on Western civilization that's taking place?
The most dramatic one in the last week, and every week has its most dramatic one, or most dramatic ten, is what's happening at Oxford University.
Where they are declaring musical notation or annotation as a white supremacist movement.
The very notion of classical music is an expression of white supremacy.
I have said, as you know, thousands of times...
Written articles on it.
Everything the left touches, it destroys.
At what point will those who find that comment over the top understand that it is literally true?
There is nothing the left touches that it doesn't destroy.
Nothing.
It is a force of pure destruction.
If it's good, the left destroys it.
America was largely good.
America is composed of 330 million flawed human beings.
It is amazing that it got as good as it did.
The amazing thing is not the bad that exists which is universal.
The amazing thing is the good that exists which is unique or Extremely rare.
You don't judge people by the same flaws, or you don't judge a society by the same flaws that every other one has.
You judge it by what makes it exceptional, either worse, like a communist or fascist or Nazi country, or better, like America.
I have a particular love of classical music, as you know.
You know who loved classical music the most, by far, certainly in the young generation, are Asians, Koreans, Chinese, and Japanese in particular.
If you look at European orchestras, there are so many Asian players.
The non-West may save the West.
I'll tell you who may save Catholicism, and maybe all of Christianity, are Africans.
I've been reading, I don't recall his name, I've been reading the works of an African cardinal.
And I forgot which country.
He's in West Africa.
The man is brilliant.
And he so understands the conflict between true Christianity and the left.
Which the present Pope has no clue, no clue with regard to, because he's on the left.
So who knows?
As I said in my speeches in Romania a couple of years ago, maybe Eastern Europe will save Western Europe.
Maybe Africa will save the West.
Maybe the South in the United States will save the North.
That's right.
That's the way it looks at this time, doesn't it?
