=== Cruel Progressive Creed (10:01) ===

[00:00:00]  He's one of the great thinkers of our time.
[00:00:04]  He's as close to a kindred spirit as one comes in terms of understanding what is happening to our civilization.
[00:00:17]  I read to you, The Cruel Progressive Creed Undoing Civilization.
[00:00:25]  Sound familiar?
[00:00:26]  What I'm about to read to you...
[00:00:29]  These are things that I have been saying for years, and especially in the last year and a half.
[00:00:35]  However, it is always good to hear it from another.
[00:00:43]  It's human nature.
[00:00:45]  It's like kids.
[00:00:49]  Parents know that kids will be more affected by another than from them, than they are of them.
[00:00:58]  It just...
[00:00:59]  There are times actually where parents have said to me, could you speak to my son or my daughter?
[00:01:08]  If you say it, it'll have more of an effect.
[00:01:10]  Not because you're Dennis Prager, but because you're an outsider.
[00:01:14]  But anyway, this is true here.
[00:01:17]  He's both not me and terrific.
[00:01:21]  Debt is suffocating us.
[00:01:25]  Our currency is on its way to being Lebanonized.
[00:01:33]  Most major American cities are broke, dirty, unsafe, and run by either corrupt incumbents, neo-Marxists, or both.
[00:01:44]  Tell me what is not true about that sentence.
[00:01:48]  Most major American cities are broke, dirty, unsafe, and run by either corrupt...
[00:01:54]  Incumbents or neo-Marxists or both.
[00:01:58]  How did that happen?
[00:01:59]  How does that happen?
[00:02:00]  How do they get re-elected?
[00:02:04]  They get re-elected because they promise a lot of people goodies and because they demonize Republicans.
[00:02:12]  And it works.
[00:02:17]  The law is optional.
[00:02:20]  And applied asymmetrically on the basis of race and ideology.
[00:02:26]  The law is optional.
[00:02:28]  Is that a great line?
[00:02:30]  You read this piece?
[00:02:33]  He composes pieces like this almost daily.
[00:02:39]  The past is found guilty by the laws of the present.
[00:02:44]  He really writes well.
[00:02:47]  That's another fantastic line.
[00:02:50]  The past is found guilty by the laws of the present.
[00:02:58]  Wow.
[00:03:03]  When could that not happen?
[00:03:04]  When would that not be possible?
[00:03:07]  That means nobody before us was decent, if that's what we do.
[00:03:14]  The past is found guilty by the laws of the present.
[00:03:23]  One of the insights I give in my Bible commentary, the Rational Bible, and I ask you for your sake, for my sake, and for the country's sake, to pre-order Deuteronomy, the third of my five volumes, the first five volumes of the Bible.
[00:03:43]  It is coming out in September.
[00:03:47]  You can pre-order it at Amazon.
[00:03:52]  I make the point in Genesis when it says that God saved Noah, described Noah's decency as he was a righteous man in his generations.
[00:04:09]  Why did it just say he was a righteous man?
[00:04:13]  Because you judge people.
[00:04:15]  In their generation.
[00:04:19]  Otherwise, it's over.
[00:04:22]  Nobody before us was good and we will never be decent compared to those in the future.
[00:04:30]  The past is found guilty by the laws of the present and so it is being undone.
[00:04:36]  The military budget is on a trajectory to be the smallest in terms of GDP allotment.
[00:04:44]  Since World War II. Did you know that?
[00:04:52]  Yeah?
[00:04:54]  Why would we do that if we could pay off pension plans to teachers' unions?
[00:05:01]  That's where we should be spending our money, not in defending the country and liberty on Earth.
[00:05:09]  As I have said often, If they really gave out the Nobel Peace Prize to those who deserve it, the American military would get it every year.
[00:05:20]  Its careerist officers, for their own short-term interests, are now demonizing and will soon be driving away the very demographic that has suffered percentage-wise the greatest casualties in recent wars.
[00:05:40]  And was once unquestionably the foundation of the military.
[00:05:44]  I assume he's talking about white males.
[00:05:46]  What was his name?
[00:05:53]  Mally?
[00:05:55]  Sorry?
[00:05:57]  Millie?
[00:05:58]  M-I-L-L-E-Y?
[00:05:59]  Head of the Joint Chiefs?
[00:06:03]  Wow.
[00:06:06]  He wants the military, members of the military, to study white rage.
[00:06:13]  You understand the instruction of the theory in the 727-727.
[00:06:20]  ...border on whatever the theory is.
[00:06:24]  But I do think it's important, actually, for those of us in uniform to be open-minded and be widely read.
[00:06:32]  And the United States Military Academy is a university.
[00:06:35]  And it is important that we train and we understand.
[00:06:39]  And I want to understand white rage.
[00:06:41]  And I'm white.
[00:06:42]  And I want to understand it.
[00:06:44]  This is the head of the Joint Chiefs.
[00:06:47]  Hmm.
[00:06:51]  Okay.
[00:06:52]  Next.
[00:06:54]  By the way, that point, every one of these sentences is a bombshell.
[00:07:01]  Alien...
[00:07:01]  Demonizing and alienating the very demographic that has suffered percentage-wise the greatest casualties and was once unquestionably the foundation of the military.
[00:07:14]  Next, there is no U.S. border.
[00:07:17]  It is an abstract construct that millions will illegally cross in the next few years, ostensibly because they will become future soldiers in the progressive wars for America to come.
[00:07:32]  That's right.
[00:07:37]  That's right.
[00:07:38]  You do.
[00:07:39]  You illegally...
[00:07:40]  Well, it's fair.
[00:07:42]  How do you illegally cross an abstract construct?
[00:07:48]  The idea of merit that built America is a dirty word, replaced by medieval tribalism of hiring and promotion by superficial appearance.
[00:08:03]  In just five months, Joe Biden created a desert and called it progress.
[00:08:10]  That's just the beginning.
[00:08:15]  Yeah, there you go.
[00:08:17]  He identifies as white.
[00:08:19]  He should really be more woke than that.
[00:08:23]  Perhaps nearly two million illegal aliens will cross the border over the calendar year.
[00:08:28]  Most would never have attempted to do that last summer.
[00:08:33]  Why?
[00:08:34]  Because after January 20, 2021, they believed the border was open.
[00:08:40]  Now meeting a border security guard ensures no detention, much less deportation.
[00:08:50]  That line, in just five months, Joe Biden created a desert and called it progress.
[00:09:01]  Who worries much about the ensuing collateral damage?
[00:09:05]  Squalid conditions.
[00:09:06]  Talking about the massive influx of people into this country illegally.
[00:09:14]  Squalid conditions in border halfway stations.
[00:09:18]  Cartel predation on the vulnerable.
[00:09:21]  The overtaxing of social welfare services at the expense of American poor.
[00:09:27]  That's correct.
[00:09:30]  Who do you think gets hurt when you have even poorer people flock in in the millions?
[00:09:35]  The American poor.
[00:09:38]  Greater rates of crime and gang violence, the diminution in entry-level wages, and less integration and dissimilation of newcomers who come en masse.
[00:09:55]  That's why President Trump was elected.
[00:09:59]  Because of these truths.
