00:03:47.000We've got tweets, you know, so basically we don't have a border.
00:03:51.000More people are coming in than at any time since George W. Bush and people that are even being apprehended are being released into the country, but hey, don't worry about it, folks.
00:06:42.000But before we get into all that, we do have to discuss this article here from Bloomberg.
00:06:48.000Normally I wouldn't go in-depth into this, but to me, I see this headline and I just have to talk about it because it's almost... it's exactly, like verbatim, what I said yesterday.
00:06:59.000You know, towards the end of the show yesterday, I made this joke.
00:07:02.000I said something to the effect of, you know, look, I know China's doing gene editing on their children, and they've got this ethnic core that's totally coherent, and their country is strong and powerful, and they have a direction, they're committed to common goals, but we have a secret weapon.
00:07:57.000The sub-headline says, a healthy birth rate and high immigration are the US's secret weapons against China and Russia.
00:08:05.000The other sub-headline, but the US needs to keep birth rates up and immigration rising.
00:08:10.000So, it's just beyond parody at this point.
00:08:13.000These people really do believe... I mean, that's why I said it's a joke.
00:08:20.000These people really believe this stuff.
00:08:22.000They really believe China rising in the East and understand the significance of China rising in the East.
00:08:29.000What this effectively does is it invalidates like 30 years of American ideological mythology, is what it is basically, which says that the only way for a country to do well is for it to be liberal and democratic and have a constitution and respect natural rights and have free markets.
00:08:51.000That the Soviet Union fell and we won the Cold War and in doing so we proved that the only way to be a modern country, in fact the only civilized way of living, is to be like us.
00:09:04.000Libertine, free markets, hyper-individualism, atomization, all the rest, corporatism essentially operating at the top.
00:09:12.000Oligarchical corporatism, that's the only way to be.
00:09:16.000And here you have China coming along, and they're none of these things.
00:09:20.000For a long time, the argument used to go that we're going to let China come into the World Trade Organization, and we're going to have huge trade deficits, and we're basically going to finance their rise.
00:09:30.000I mean, understand, China was nothing 50 years ago.
00:09:34.000It's only by the grace of American foreign investment.
00:09:54.000If China became rich, if China developed a middle class, eventually they would have to democratize.
00:10:00.000These things go hand in hand, you see.
00:10:02.000You can't have a middle class and be an authoritarian state because, A, people get a little money in their pocket, they have a little bit of economic choice, a little bit of economic freedom, and what follows down the line is they're going to demand political autonomy, political enfranchisement.
00:10:48.000You've got countries like Russia, countries like Turkey, countries like Brazil, the Philippines, where they've got leaders which could not be described as liberal, as respecting human rights, or the Atlantic Charter, or anything like that, and yet they're solving problems.
00:11:04.000Sure, Philippines is still suffering from a lot of challenges.
00:11:08.000Bolsonaro in Brazil hasn't achieved anything so great yet.
00:11:11.000He only got into office several months ago.
00:11:14.000But in spite of that, they are starting to clean the country up.
00:11:17.000You look at Russia prior to Putin, prior to the year 2000, they were doing a lot worse.
00:11:22.000They're not doing great today, but they were doing a lot worse.
00:11:25.000You know, you look at a lot of these countries.
00:11:27.000You look at Turkey with Erdogan, bringing the country back together around their shared ethnic and religious heritage.
00:11:34.000So, what China does, I guess more than any of these countries, but alongside them, is it invalidates all this mythology, all this ideology that we've been operating under these assumptions for years.
00:11:45.000That the only way for us to be competitive is through free markets, this and that, all the rest.
00:11:50.000And so you got to understand when it comes to this question, I mean this is deadly serious.
00:11:54.000How are we going to compete with these other countries?
00:11:58.000Naive ideology is not going to make us competitive.
00:12:55.000Either way, this is the right thing to do.
00:12:58.000Isn't it better when we have a little bit of color, okay?
00:13:01.000Isn't it okay we have a little bit of women in the boardroom, alright?
00:13:06.000Or we have some queers hanging out in the lobby or whatever?
00:13:10.000And so, we really have to get serious about this stuff, but we're going to read a little bit of the article, just a few excerpts here, because this is really fundamental.
00:13:19.000We're going to talk about immigration at the end of the show, but every time we see an article like this, it's very important to sort of read between the lines.
00:13:27.000Will America or its authoritarian rivals dominate the 21st century?
00:13:44.000The answer may have as much to do with demography as with policy.
00:13:51.000Although we often fixate on military spending and GDP as markers of America's position vis-a-vis China and Russia, a country's demographic profile critically impacts its ability to generate that wealth and power.
00:14:27.000Our little moment where we can find common ground.
00:14:30.000And they say, and if demography is indeed destiny, America's geopolitical future looks pretty promising.
00:14:38.000So long as the country can navigate the dangers the world's demographic future also holds.
00:14:43.000And they go on to talk about what this really means, which is bringing in more immigrants.
00:14:47.000We just have to bring in more immigrants.
00:14:48.000They say, quote, a country's people are taproot of its power in many respects.
00:14:54.000A large working-age population serves as a source of military manpower.
00:14:59.000Far more important, a relatively young, growing, well-educated population is a wellspring of the economic productivity that underlies all other forms of international influence.
00:15:10.000All things equal, countries with healthy demographic profiles can create wealth more easily than their competitors.
00:15:17.000They can also direct a larger share of that wealth to geopolitical projects as opposed to, excuse me, pensions and healthcare.
00:15:24.000And it's interesting because in this article they are stressing the importance of demographics.
00:15:29.000They're just not looking at it in any other way other than age and size.
00:16:19.000If you look at Hispanic immigrants, this is according to Jason Richwine, if you look at Hispanic immigrants in particular, and this is the largest group, was previously the largest group I think up until a couple of years ago, since about 1965 or thereabouts after the Hart-Celler Act.
00:16:33.000If you look at Hispanic immigrants after the second generation, you don't see any substantial improvement in education.
00:16:40.000So the second generation is more educated than the first generation, but after that, not a single generation, third, fourth, or beyond, they don't come close to the education rates of white people, any other group of people.
00:16:52.000It doesn't improve after the second generation.
00:16:56.000They come in here, average 85 IQ, three generations on, IQ doesn't improve.
00:17:01.000So again, if we're looking at, again, the quality of immigrants and not just the volume, yeah, the quality of immigrants kind of matters just as much.
00:17:10.000We're looking at how can we bring in as many people as humanly possible
00:17:16.000So that we can inflate the GDP and so that we can increase the size of the military.
00:17:21.000Bring in more grunts to work in the military.
00:17:24.000More people that you could put a uniform on and put them at some faraway outpost and they can perform their patrols and their work and everything else.
00:17:33.000But of course this doesn't work because we see that there are a lot of countries in the world who have a big population and they don't do so well.
00:17:40.000You know, is Brazil really capturing all of its economic potential?
00:17:44.000Is India really capturing all of its economic potential?
00:17:47.000Here's a country with a billion people.
00:17:59.000Because the people are of, well, perhaps, if you're looking at, oh, all kinds of different factors, you could say that economically and otherwise, they're of a lower quality.
00:18:52.000It says, America's demographic future is more fragile than the numbers indicate.
00:18:56.000Projected increases in population are heavily dependent on one of the country's hidden underrated advantages, high levels of immigration.
00:19:04.000But if current trends are any indication, the U.S.
00:19:06.000could easily squander its demographic advantages by enacting draconian immigration restrictions, or simply destroying its image as a country that welcomes ambitious newcomers.
00:19:21.000Conversely, if the proportion of immigrants continues to rise while the white population shrinks, xenophobia and race-based politics could become more common and more toxic.
00:19:33.000is to keep its demographic edge, which is importing 3 million immigrants a year, it will have to find ways of reconciling two competing imperatives.
00:19:42.000Refreshing the population through immigration while preserving social and political stability.
00:20:40.000So you figure in 1990, America was indisputably the most powerful country in the world.
00:20:47.000I don't think we had the same edge of GDP over the next highest country or anything like that.
00:20:52.000I'm not sure the exact figures, but you know that with a smaller amount of people, but simply with the right people, we were still able to be the most powerful country in the world uncontested without a doubt.
00:21:07.000Now they're telling us that, no, no, no, actually we need to refresh the population.
00:21:12.000Even though if the white population were to diminish, and therefore the population at large would diminish, GDP, you know, this larger number may go down, maybe it would stagnate, maybe it would stay the same.
00:22:09.000So, we just have to refresh the population.
00:22:13.000We just have to bring in all these people and, oh sure, they're going to cause things like social and political instability.
00:22:19.000That's just something we'll have to manage.
00:22:21.000That's just something we'll have to figure out because of course we need more people in the military to expand our hegemony in financial markets, to make the world safer banking, and we need more people buying products and working these menial jobs.
00:22:35.000And that's ultimately what this is about.
00:22:37.000You know, why do we complain about immigration?
00:22:44.000I said this yesterday about Facebook banning white nationalists.
00:22:48.000Why do you think Facebook is banning anybody who, you know, speaks ill of immigration?
00:22:52.000And that's effectively what they're doing.
00:22:53.000Anybody who says that we should maintain any kind of racial or ethnic homogeneity or coherence in a country, it's because they're all in on it.
00:23:01.000The agenda on the part of Silicon Valley, Wall Street, D.C., all these other power centers, is we just want to transform this country into a country of
00:23:13.000We want a country that, you know, there is no solidarity among people.
00:23:17.000There's no... And this is all things that I said yesterday, but you read this article and it really just drives home the point that I'm not like making that up.
00:23:25.000You know, you might have heard years ago that this was conspiracy talk to talk about
00:23:29.000Population replacement is some kind of conspiracy theory, that the people that push that are Nazis, they're white nationalists, something like that.
00:23:37.000It's really not an extreme position to have.
00:23:42.000They're telling you, yeah, the agenda, the play for the next 100 years, for us to do better, is we have to refresh, replace the population with people who are going to work, who are going to increase the GDP, they're going to increase our bottom line, and they're going to serve in the military.
00:23:59.000And in having a big military, we're going to be able to protect our financial interests.
00:24:07.000You think they're bringing them in here because they're going to make your life better?
00:24:10.000You think they thought, you know, you look at my suburb in Chicago, you think they came down here where we have no problems and they said, how can we make it better?
00:24:18.000There needs to be more minorities here.
00:24:19.000We have to have more people from Brazil and Nicaragua and Guatemala.
00:26:49.000We have deleted an earlier tweet for an article that mischaracterized Ben Shapiro, who has been strongly critical of the alt-right movement.
00:27:32.000It was like we were saying yesterday, you know, the economists, they saw these facts being delivered, just blow after blow, and they're like, we're being humiliated.
00:27:40.000These facts and logic are overwhelming.
00:28:02.000And, you know, a media outlet like this, a totally legacy media outlet like this, would just say, oh yes, I'm sorry, we'll issue a retraction, we'll do the right thing.
00:28:39.000And he's like, oh, he's a self-described white nationalist.
00:28:41.000Now he's a self-described white nationalist.
00:28:43.000Now he's a self-proclaimed white nationalist.
00:28:45.000Well, that's not really what was said, right?
00:28:47.000And then I go to Iowa, and they writ me in their Iowa State Daily for the campus speech as white nationalist, Nick Fuentes comes to campus, and they detail this exact event.
00:28:56.000They said, well, he says he's white and a nationalist, so he's a self-proclaimed...
00:29:03.000A white nationalist is somebody who wants X, Y, and Z. And I'm a nationalist who wants America to kind of have some coherent national identity.
00:29:09.000And you know, there's a number of ways we could go about that and yada yada.
00:29:13.000Next day, the person who's reporting about the speech says, oh yeah, white nationalistic.
00:29:19.000And every time I say, you know, look, what you're doing is liable.
00:30:21.000I'm just going to wrap it up on this point because it's kind of hard to get cut off like that and just sort of dive right back into the old rant.
00:30:32.000I mean, I don't even know where I left off before I got cut, but...
00:30:37.000Uh, you know, look, this guy Ben Shapiro, in summation, to conclude, this guy Ben Shapiro is causing a lot of problems, alright, and I think the point that I left off on with this Economist article is basically that, you know, he likes censorship.
00:31:16.000He goes on Dave Rubin, for example, and he says, I believe the real racists should have their lives destroyed.
00:31:22.000Well, he's participating in censorship, of course.
00:31:25.000He's the number one beneficiary of censorship, as a gatekeeper.
00:31:29.000Ben Shapiro's task is not to protect free speech, it's not to keep people on the internet, it's not to foster some marketplace of ideas.
00:31:38.000Ben Shapiro's task is to make it such that conservatism means exactly what he wanted to and what his donors wanted to, which is all of what we just talked about with the Bloomberg article.
00:31:49.000Mass immigration, foreign wars, free trade, diversity, all this other stuff.
00:32:32.000For all the economists might say that he's alt-right or a radical conservative.
00:32:36.000Remember it was the New York Times that wrote a glowing article about how Ben Shapiro is the prophet of conservatism.
00:32:43.000He's leading the intellectual dark web.
00:32:46.000These people are just as much a part of the establishment as anybody else.
00:32:49.000And that was the point I was trying to make there before I got...
00:32:52.000Cut off, but I don't want to spend too much time on that.
00:32:55.000There's really not much left to say there.
00:32:58.000I'm still kind of miffed that we got cut off like that.
00:33:01.000You know, I thought we were going to... I thought we weren't going to have that issue anymore.
00:33:06.000I got the Windows key and typically what'll happen since I got the Windows key is I just fix the issue very quickly, but the computer actually froze while I was trying to fix it.
00:33:17.000You know, if it's, okay, well we're fixing this issue and the computer freezes, well not much you can do about that, right?
00:33:22.000So that's always, always a great time, but we're gonna go into our last topic here for the evening and then we'll open it up for super chats or stream labs.
00:33:31.000You know, it wouldn't even be that big of a deal if I could just pick up the stream where I left off, but the problem is then it creates two separate streams if you're offline for too long.
00:33:42.000Then it's just like I got one video and then another video and
00:33:46.000It's just kind of sloppy, so maybe I'll re-upload it as one video.
00:33:58.000Our last topic here is this immigration thing.
00:34:01.000As you know, we've been talking about this for weeks now.
00:34:03.000We've been talking about this since the funding bill was passed, because that's when this problem really kicked into overdrive.
00:34:08.000And that's, you know, what everybody's saying at the border, which is this immigration thing.
00:34:13.000And finally today we got a response from the president on this issue.
00:34:17.000He's basically been silent about immigration since the end of the government shutdown and the ensuing funding bill, which completed the whole process three weeks later.
00:34:26.000You know, we had a lot about North Korea, some stuff about health care, and just sort of this meandering, unfocused administration, until finally it seems like we're revisiting this issue about a month or so later.
00:35:17.000There's no incentive for them to do that.
00:35:20.000Mexico just dumps their bad people into our country.
00:35:23.000America's a dumping ground for Mexico.
00:35:26.000And the best part about it is, not only do they send their worst, poorest, their biggest criminals over to America,
00:35:32.000But moreover, the people that they do send here who are somewhat decent, the people come here, they work, and then they send remittances back to Mexico.
00:35:40.000So they send over some workers, some laborers, and all throughout their stay in America, they'll be sending money back to Mexico.
00:35:47.000And that money will be spent in Mexico.
00:35:49.000And that money will go into the Mexican economy.
00:37:10.000Do you remember in the last government shutdown?
00:37:13.000I think it was around September or something.
00:37:15.000It was right around the midterm election.
00:37:17.000We actually greenlit more foreign aid for these Central American countries.
00:37:21.000So it's not like, you know, because a lot of people come to me when I criticize Trump and they say, oh, well, he couldn't do anything about that.
00:37:28.000Like that was put in place by his predecessors.
00:37:31.000Well, this was money that was greenlit under a Republican House and Senate and Republican president.
00:37:53.000Does he think he can just kind of get one over on us by blaming these countries and saying, well, they're not stopping, but they get money anyway.
00:38:00.000Maybe stop giving them the money then.
00:38:02.000I mean, you're kind of like the president, right?
00:38:05.000And up until recently, we did control both chambers of Congress.
00:38:09.000So remember, I mean, that was passed under a Republican House of Representatives.
00:38:13.000The excuse that is used now is, oh, well, the Democrats control the House.
00:38:17.000Well, that wasn't the case when the money was allocated back during the fall when the migrant caravans were coming in.
00:38:37.000NBC News reports then this afternoon that the Trump administration is asking Congress for sweeping authority to deport unaccompanied migrant children.
00:38:59.000But finally, we have a president who's going to ask permission if he can stand up and do something about it.
00:39:06.000I don't know how people can defend this administration anymore.
00:39:09.000You know and I used to be one of the most gung-ho people about it and people like to paint this picture like I jumped on the bandwagon of the Black Pillars or something like that or I have to tell people that they were right all along.
00:39:21.000The funding bill came down and it was made clear that this administration is not serious.
00:39:26.000Everything before that I think could have been rationalized to an extent.
00:39:31.000But there was an ulterior motive, that there was still some effort being made to stop immigration, that there was somebody serious still in the White House trying to get this done.
00:39:41.000But after the funding bill, I mean, he created this crisis.
00:39:45.000You know, previous crises we could say that, well, Congress wouldn't pass something.
00:39:49.000But this present crisis is a direct result of the funding bill that the President signed.
00:40:28.000You're the President of the United States.
00:40:30.000This may be our last opportunity to achieve meaningful reform before we really have to go underground.
00:40:36.000Literally forced underground here when the next administration comes in and they decide to pursue all anti-immigration people on RICO charges or something else like that.
00:41:07.000He's up against a lot of obstruction and a lot of opposition within his own party, and you're mad that, you know, things take time and you have to be patient.
00:41:15.000No, I was saying that maybe months ago.
00:41:17.000I was saying that maybe three or four months ago, but then your patience runs out.
00:41:34.000You know, at that point I said, look, until this administration gets serious about this, you just, you can't support it in good faith.
00:41:40.000The number one issue that he ran on was building the wall, stopping illegal immigration, deporting illegals, maybe cutting legal immigration.
00:41:48.000Now, this is according to Breitbart, they're projecting that the Trump administration is going to bring in 1.5 million illegal immigrants in 2019.
00:41:57.000Which happens to be more than every year of Barack Obama's presidency.
00:42:02.000So not one single year did Barack Obama have 1.5 million illegals.
00:42:06.000Trump is bringing them in in year two of the administration.
00:42:10.000I mean that is just that I don't know what other figure you need.
00:42:14.000I don't know what else you need to say that this has been an abject failure.
00:42:17.000The promise was we were going to deport 20 million illegals.
00:42:20.000I mean, I understood that maybe that wasn't practical.
00:42:26.000He said we're going to deport 20 million illegals.
00:42:28.000So you would expect at the very least that we would have less illegals in the country.
00:42:34.000And when we got started, you would imagine that if you're promising we're gonna get them all out, at the very least there wouldn't be more than when we began.
00:42:41.000Like, okay, nobody's gonna push you to deport all of them.
00:42:51.000And again, and it all goes back to this is entirely self-inflicted.
00:42:56.000This is going to be the worst year for illegal immigration since George W. Bush because Trump signed the funding bill that gave amnesty and immunity to unaccompanied minors and their sponsors.
00:43:08.000Who constitutes all the new illegal immigration?
00:43:10.000Like we said yesterday, it's unaccompanied minors and their sponsors from Central America.
00:43:15.000So all these people, this was the problem back in November because we talked about childhood separation in July.
00:43:23.000And so Trump, looking at that emergency, said, well, this is pretty terrible.
00:43:40.000I'll probably vote for President Trump in 2020.
00:43:43.000I'll probably do it just because you know there really aren't any other good options.
00:43:48.000You know I like Yang and we've been doing the Yang gang thing because
00:43:52.000I think it's very important that he breaks the law jam on the socialism-capitalism question.
00:43:57.000I think it's important to play the other side because this is an incumbent election, so you'd be stupid to not play the other side.
00:44:03.000You know, I live in Illinois, so this is a very blue state.
00:44:06.000There's a little bit of clout there and room for organizing, so I'll probably vote for Trump.
00:44:11.000You know, in spite of the fact that Yang is something that's strategically important to do now, people still don't really understand this, but, you know, I don't know.
00:46:02.000One day we're gonna get more than half of the Hispanic vote and it'll all be worth it.
00:46:07.000And those Democrats, they're gonna regret the day they ever let us bring in all those immigrants because they're gonna start voting Republican.
00:46:18.000Cassie Dillon, Ben Shapiro, Aaron Bandler.
00:46:21.000They're gonna drive down to El Paso, Texas with a trailer hitched to the back of their truck full of copies of Milton Friedman's Capitalism and Freedom, Free to Choose, and they're gonna go.
00:46:32.000It's gonna be like when Trump visited that Hurricane Disaster Center.
00:46:49.000It's going to be Henry Hazlitt's Economics in One Lesson, Ludwig von Mises.
00:46:54.000I imagine Guatemalan immigrants are going to come across the border and they're going to read a Spanish translation of On Money and Credit by Ludwig von Mises.
00:48:48.000Dominic Liberatore says, I know this is small picture, but if radical Democrats control UBI, wouldn't they try and withhold the bag from white nationalists?
00:49:41.000The point is not to elect him president.
00:49:44.000We probably, even if he got elected, and understand he was hot for like a minute and now his chances, even in the betting markets, are down to like 4%.
00:50:51.000So, people coming in, you know, you really shouldn't show for Yang because, you know, let's say he gets the nomination, gets elected, UBI gets passed, he's probably going to take it away.
00:51:00.000You know, under this, like, crazy hypothetical, he says it's for everybody over the age of 18.
00:51:06.000So, probably not going to happen anyway, right?
00:51:09.000If it's for everybody over the age of 18, regardless of income and anything else, they're not going to take it away based on ideology.
00:53:44.000You know, I'll pull back and I'll not have it for a little while if I feel like it's getting excessive, but it is, you know, there is a chemical addiction happening there.
00:53:54.000YangPilled says, Nick, I love your boomer jokes.
00:55:12.000Overseer says my enthusiasm for the Trump administration started to weaken back when he announced the bump stock ban and then it died at CPAC 2019.
00:55:21.000Oh well, keep up the good work, Nick, and don't interview E. Michael Jones.
00:55:30.000But yeah, the bump stock ban was pretty rough.
00:55:32.000I don't know if that was the end of the world for me, but
00:55:35.000You know, it just goes to show that it wasn't moving in the right direction from the beginning.
00:55:39.000Tom Allen says, I've been scared to come out, but I was viciously attacked by alt-right leader Ben Shapiro and his goons.
00:55:44.000They tried to put a noose around my neck whilst shouting, this is Yehudi, Clowny Goy.
00:55:49.000Yeah, that's, uh, that's a fear that I often have, you know, when traveling to Skokie, Illinois and other places.
00:55:55.000I'm always afraid that somebody's gonna put a noose to a reverse
00:55:59.000Holocaust on me or something you know we have to be afraid as a black man myself I look at who are the slave traders and you know you got to really get woke about that right Carson Gordon says Nick don't let Ben distract you focus on the bag I'm always focused on the bag but guy
00:56:16.000Glass half-empty says, all hail Ben, whose sister is a 10 Shapiro, the leader of the new Nazi alt-right.
00:56:23.000Oh, I disavow, I disavow neo-nazi leader Ben Shapiro.
00:56:27.000Can't do it, I'm a campus conservative, okay?
00:56:30.000Distracted libertarian says, hello fellow zoomers, I hate boomers and also have an abnormal attraction to TikTok girls.
00:57:01.000Cassie, Queen of Spades Dillons' globalist Bertrand Russell said that in the future, China would have to take control of the West due to a lack of whites.
00:57:36.000Uh, The Deep Dark Net says, you see the Crow House, the Crow House, Blackstone Intel, and more exposed themselves as anti-speech, anti-gun shills the past couple of days.
00:57:47.000So many shills insulting their audience.
00:58:49.000So you would dump them out, get rid of the box, put them all in the other box, tape up the box, put it down, get another box, unpackage, move them into the other, and you would do that for eight hours.
00:58:59.000The same thing, you'd probably do like a thousand, or you know, that's probably a lot, but you know, you do a lot of boxes in a day, and so you just have to, I remember I would listen to Kanye West discography like every day, all the way through.
01:06:05.000Maybe because anybody who tries, you know, they're subject to, you know, not just the task in front of us, but also the people behind, right?
01:06:58.000You know, I might as well just swap out.
01:06:59.000I'm gonna dump all the liquid in the Flonase and just put Monster Zero Ultra in it, and I'll just spray that onto the surface of the brain.
01:07:07.000You know, if you think I'm going off on the... I think it's actually like... What is it?
01:07:35.000I consider Portillo's more like fast casual.
01:07:38.000There's kind of like tiers, you know, it's pricing, it's also quality.
01:07:42.000It's like you go to McDonald's and you could spend like five bucks and get a meal and that's probably the lower tier is McDonald's Taco Bell Wendy's KFC Popeye's You know places like that White Castle and then I think a step above that is fast casual where you've got five guys Portillo's Shake Shack You know places like that where you're probably gonna spend like $10 a little bit more than $10 and the quality's a step above the weights a little bit step above so
01:09:17.000Ryan Struckman says, Nick, there's no turning back for you, but do you think engaging in pro-white and paleoconservative activism is even worth it in our times?
01:09:25.000Are Zoomers wasting their youth only to be ostracized?
01:10:57.000But it is your obligation to start participating in some kind of civilization-regenerating movement in some capacity, because, you know, I kind of get that.
01:11:09.000A lot of people say to me, oh, people are being dumb if they're like the Columbia Kid, for example, where they're at Columbia University, they've got a great future ahead of them, and they're going to go out and say, I love white people!
01:11:25.000Somebody like that should just be quiet, keep to themselves.
01:11:27.000But, you know, they become a professional and then you have to contribute in some capacity.
01:11:32.000And that can be however it is, whatever level of risk you're willing to take on.
01:11:36.000But, you know, this kind of thinking of, because I get it, you know, you do have to take care of yourself.
01:11:41.000But this idea that I'm not going to stick my neck out at any point, in any capacity, for any reason, that's kind of how we got here in the first place.
01:11:49.000So I would caution against that mentality.
01:11:58.000We are much better off having people who have never spoken a word about these ideologies, but are, you know, just doing their own thing, having a family, in politics or in a profession.
01:12:09.000But I do think that people, if they are aware of these issues, there is some degree of obligation that they're doing something to move the ball down the field.
01:12:18.000And that could be as simple as, again, just having kids, just to give you an idea.
01:12:27.000But it's kind of delicate, because I don't want to tell people, because people always get, and that's why I have to clarify, because people always get it wrong, and they say, oh, oh, so what you're saying is, I have to, like, run for office, or, oh, I have to do activism, or I have to be out on the streets with an arm patch and a flag or something.
01:12:44.000Like, no, nobody's saying that, right?
01:13:08.000If you can, if you have the aptitude, if you have that opportunity to get into politics, and that's your calling, you really want to do that or whatever it is,
01:13:19.000Just don't reveal your power levels, all right?
01:14:15.000You know, it's not everybody, and I don't mean that as an indictment of the religion, but you see people like this person, Distributist, you see who's the other one,
01:14:53.000Carlo is this tradcath who saw Scott Greer and said, you know, Scott Greer isn't sufficiently Catholic enough, or he's not sufficiently traditionalist enough.
01:15:01.000He's too much of a racialist, so we're gonna dox him and destroy his career.
01:15:52.000Nick is really uh he's too abrasive okay yeah he's really kind of a nasty guy so we're gonna counter signal him and we're gonna attack him on our streams and we're gonna do all this kind of stuff and it's just like what kind of person are you you know it's like maybe it's time to take a look in the mirror right what what agenda are you really advancing are you advancing an agenda that supports the church are you advancing an agenda that supports
01:16:18.000Traditionalism and Catholicism and the message of Christ in this time of darkness, or are you doing something that's based on your ego?
01:16:25.000Are you doing something that, oh well, you know, Nick is this YouTuber that I have a problem with, for whatever reason, and so we're gonna go after him.
01:16:32.000And so that really, that really has to be a lesson there, because I see that all too often.
01:16:37.000So no, I'm not gonna have Distributist on the channel.
01:16:40.000I'm not going to have a lot of these guys on the channel because, you know, I'm out there and look, those are anonymous people also, for what it's worth.
01:16:46.000So I'm out there with my face saying, don't have premarital sex and a lot of other things that aren't exactly cool and sexy, right?
01:16:56.000And I'm advancing a reactionary political cause and I'm sacrificing for it.
01:17:00.000And I got people from behind, oh, you're too mean, you're too mean.
01:19:25.000My show is not for people that want violence or change from outside the system.
01:19:30.000This show is dedicated to the cause of peaceful, peaceful reform in government towards accommodating these radical technological and demographic changes.
01:22:27.000So, yeah, look, and I don't mean that to hit everybody.
01:22:29.000There's, obviously, it's just the vocal minority that is very outspoken.
01:22:35.000The vast majority, and I've heard this from a lot, a lot of people, so don't think I don't appreciate, you know, or don't think I'm attacking Catholics in general, as a Catholic myself.
01:22:44.000Um, the vast majority of people reach out and say, oh, your show brought me to the faith or brought me back or you're doing a great thing, you know, you're advancing the cause of the church and things like this.
01:22:55.000I can't tell you how many emails, super chats, direct messages, whatever I get with that kind of message.
01:23:00.000And so it's by far and away, there's a lot more positivity.
01:23:04.000So I guess that's sort of, I do tend to dwell on the negative a little bit, but it is something that's so frustrating because I do put my life on the line here.
01:23:12.000That's not an exaggeration to say that.
01:23:14.000I really do sacrifice in a lot of ways to have a Catholic life and to have a show that advances Catholic values.
01:23:22.000And so to have people that supposedly share the faith, you know, should be on the same team, sort of nipping at your heels all the time, is something that really rubs me the wrong way.
01:25:31.00020 to 30 percent in any of these countries who would support a neoliberal technocrat no matter what and the base of support for like a populist who even has the image of being a fighter being a nationalist whatever it's probably going to be like 40 or a little bit higher than that you know 35 at the minimum so I think it just comes down to something like that where people who are tired and resent the system there's always going to be more of them than people who like are
