00:06:21.620Law Speaker, can you tell people what Mouse Utopia is?
00:06:26.520well yes um and this is i'm not really sure um i guess i can stand over the banner the um
00:06:38.280not really sure how much this has to do with adulting but it is a topic that i like to
00:06:43.840talk about and so uh we can uh we can just tough it out for one night a couple hours um so mouse
00:06:51.440utopia. And I had the guy's name, Calhoun. There was a psychiatrist named Calhoun and
00:07:03.960he, should I be up over, center up over? I think there's a technical difficulty going
00:07:13.520on on the producer's end. So I'm checking on that.
00:07:15.600Okay. So there was a psychiatrist named Calhoun. And back in the 60s, he did an experiment where he took a gymnasium sized mouse enclosure, built it, plexiglass and all these layers of stuff that mice need.
00:07:43.280He filled it with an unlimited supply of space, unlimited bedding, unlimited food, and put six or eight pairs of mice in there and let them start doing what mice do.
00:07:58.540And so they reproduced exponentially, as you might expect.
00:08:03.900There was nothing in there but mice and food and space.
00:08:07.520So for a long time, the mouse population exploded.
00:08:13.280And at some point then, the mice started displaying a lot of aberrant behavior.0.85
00:08:23.820They started turning homosexual, many of them.
00:08:28.820They started displaying behavior that mice don't usually do.
00:08:32.840Mice are nocturnal creatures, but many of the mice started coming out during the day
00:08:40.760Some mice were sleeping 22 hours a day.
00:08:45.940Other mice were having, walking around in gangs and attacking other mice.
00:08:57.200And it got down to a point where, and Calhoun called these the beautiful mice.
00:09:03.760um like at some point uh there was a mate selection that that where they were living even
00:09:10.000in abnormal pairs normally mice are kind of at least during the nesting period they are
00:09:15.840i guess serially monogamous they you know the the two parents make a little nest and they take care
00:09:23.020of their own mouselets but what was happening is three four five men male mice were going with one
00:09:29.440female mice and so it was so the chaos that was created in there uh just disrupted mouse behavior
00:09:40.080patterns and disrupted obviously something it's hard is it right to say something deep in the mouse
00:09:48.320psychiat psychology was was fundamentally askew they uh
00:09:56.960and again it was at a population saturation much less than the uh than the
00:10:05.520elements would have supported there was still plenty of room there was still plenty of food
00:10:10.080there's still plenty of bedding but many of the mice just stopped breeding many of the mice were
00:10:16.000displaying all of these aberrant behaviors where they were not acting like normal mice
00:10:25.760and long before the food ran out long before the space ran out the mice all stopped breeding and
00:10:31.920at the end of the experiment there were no mice in the enclosure they all stopped breeding and died
00:10:37.440out and so the so the question then has been pondered for quite some time then you know what
00:10:46.320happened to these mice you know what happened in their little brain in there to uh to switch off
00:10:54.080their all those natural behaviors and it's been way too much time thinking about this analysis but
00:11:02.240But so what does that have to do with anything?
00:11:05.700All right. So what I think, and feel free to engage the debate, what I think that is, and the reason that this is important in our analysis of what's going on in Western civilization as a whole,
00:11:24.040is I think that all of this wokeism, transgenderism, the rampant hope of sexuality, the lack of normal breeding associations is all this kind of this virus.
00:11:42.920It's a mind virus that is permeating Western civilization, and in the exact same way that the mice were doing it at a more animalistic level, we are susceptible at some upper level, like in our upper function.0.81
00:12:04.620We see there are too many people. We see there is too much population of not necessarily of our people, but of like worldwide.
00:12:17.160There are too many people. There's there's population pressure, even though there's still a lot more resource out there.
00:12:24.260So I think the abnormalities that we see in a lot of what, for lack of a better term, we might call coupling behavior, I think that a lot of that is the psychology of this phenomenon being played out in Western civilization.
00:13:14.560And that we can, sorry, the term that immediately comes to mind is get over ourselves for five minutes, you know, and realize that it is important for us to have little ositur to continue on the worship of the gods.
00:13:39.100um that also ties in with the other half of the this discussion to me which is um
00:13:49.020other half like the other third but uh there's a there's another part of this idea that is also a
00:13:58.840well-known phenomenon in in ecological studies ecology studies and i apologize i got a little
00:14:08.240bit of a cold. But ecology, ecological professors, sorry, I'm being gifted with a gift of tea.
00:14:20.900Thank you, baby. So, thank you. So, the RK theory, right? RK theory, and it's, for whatever
00:14:36.020reason it's a small r and a slash and a capital k rk theory and the and the and what rk theory
00:14:43.620is about is it's about the idea that some animals have lots and lots of babies and invest very
00:14:56.300little in their upbringing like mice or rabbits or frogs or alligators to a lesser extent um but
00:15:05.460But if you have, like if you have during your lifetime, if you have, not you, but like if an animal has 30, 60, 80, 100 young, then they don't, all they need to do is if one or two of them survive, then that animal will continue into the future.
00:15:26.480And so that's our theory. Like it's where you have lots and lots of babies and don't put very much resource into those, into the raising of any one child.
00:15:41.880You know, but then K theory is the opposite. K theory, people with, with, I keep saying people, I mean animals, people are animals.
00:15:53.280But K theory is the opposite. You have very few children, but you invest a lot of resources into their growth and development.
00:16:04.280And like the classical example in ecology is the elephant. You know, an elephant only reproduces.
00:16:11.280You know, I think it takes two years for them to come to term and then they have a long childhood and adolescence.
00:16:17.280adolescence i mean it takes them to be 13 15 20 years old before they are sexually active
00:16:25.120and so elephants have this long slow reproductive cycle but their young is cared for by
00:16:32.480all the elephants in the herd and they all invest a lot in teaching the young elephants
00:16:39.760how to act what to eat what not to eat where to find water all those sorts of things
00:16:44.720So what does that have to do with anything, right? What it has to do with is that Western civilization has traditionally been KDV, right?
00:16:59.660We have few children. I mean, as Tacitus, I know everybody says Tacitus, but as Tacitus pointed out, you know, we have, we wait to get married.
00:17:16.820We wait to have children until we're established. That's always been like the dramatic pattern.
00:17:21.600We have very few children and invest a lot of resources into their upbringing.
00:17:32.160There are other tribes, let's say, that reproduce using the opposite theory.
00:17:40.620They have lots and lots of kids, but they don't put very much resource into the raising of those kids.
00:17:52.200And so the problem then comes in, right, where you have the mixing of those two types of reproduction theory.
00:18:03.160Like if you have people who care deeply about their children's education and want to see them get 16 years of education so they can get a college degree or get even just 12 years of decent high school education, middle school education, so that they can, as Jethro Bodine used to say, read and write and cipher some and have some basic ideas.
00:18:33.160of history and the way that the world works,
00:18:40.020you can't mix those people with those who are engaging0.84
00:18:49.740a different reproductive strategy because it causes friction, right?
00:18:56.560You can't have mice and wolves living in the same compound.0.96
00:19:03.160I said, not for long, not for long. Well, and so then you get into this idea. Well, you know, won't the wolves eat the mice? Yes. The wolves will eat the mice until the wolves get infected with a different sort of mind virus that tells them it's wrong to eat mice.
00:19:22.520and that you should forgive the mice for being lesser beings
00:20:42.060you know, that would be equally as effective as, you know, as raising balls.
00:20:48.040But those are the sorts of things that we, number one, that we should consider when we're thinking about our long-term prospects.
00:20:56.780Number two, and I know I was lucky and stumbled into, you know, a decent slot where I could parent three fine-strapping young men.
00:21:13.400But we should all, we should be, because ultimately, evolution and the long-term prospects of our folk are limited by our ability to propagate ourselves.
00:21:39.080So, I mean, this is another way to say I have great respect for all those who take the time and trouble to have two, three, five children.
00:21:53.720Five, six, seven, you know, is that much better?
00:21:57.900So we, meaning y'all who have not done your duty to the full, need to start pair bonding, realizing.
00:22:07.480And see, this, too, is part of this mix that comes in here to me is, you know, we have this idea from the entertainment industry, and I think that that idea has been the – I think it has altered people's perception of how relationships work, right?
00:22:35.960I mean, you could go to a movie, and they have some great big problem, and they solve it all, and everybody lives happily ever after, and it's all done in an hour and a half.
00:24:05.500you know I guess that's what I'm aiming
00:24:10.880for and what I sort of had in mind when I put you know when I thought of this topic0.97
00:24:14.840for the episode is ignore the idiotic pressures around out there that you know where all these0.97
00:24:22.200blue-haired freaks are saying there are too many people there are too many people but there are not0.99
00:24:27.800enough of the right people so it's all it's not just the absolute number of people it's how it's0.98
00:24:33.800the distribution okay so find a woman settle down have some kids
00:24:42.680solid i'll i'll give you some advice in that vein if it ever helps you can call me there you have it
00:24:50.360folks so this is a cool topic for a lot of reasons because in a microcosm it
00:25:03.800points out lots of different paths that we can go down on lessons learned from it or
00:25:12.560lessons demonstrated in it, I suppose.
00:25:21.720In, you know, going back to the mouse utopia for a moment,
00:25:26.720Um, when we've all heard the thing that, you know, good men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create bad times, bad times create good men.
00:25:45.520in this cycle, you have something very similar at play. When there's no struggle to your life
00:25:52.960and everything is very easy to accomplish, a nihilism and a pointlessness sets in
00:26:01.260to where you end up, or I say you, where beings end up in an existential crisis because they
00:26:12.540don't have the natural forces working on them that would compel them to do the things so they
00:26:22.220find creative ways to utilize their time and their energy um
00:26:32.620you know when when we're all hungry and cold we don't have any confusion on whether boys have a0.99
00:26:38.380penis and girls have a vagina we all understand that um but when we don't and we've got to like0.98
00:26:45.360let's reshuffle the deck let's you know discard everything that we've learned about western0.99
00:26:51.220civilization because let's try something new it it really displays in strange ways and we're laughing
00:26:58.840But as this is something to have laughed about in the 1990s, it is shockingly real in the world around us today.
00:27:12.640And I think one of the big challenges, because I don't think we want to artificially create, you know, some kind of life or death needs on things.
00:27:23.860But it challenges us specifically as Aryan noble people to figure out what that means.
00:27:31.420The world around us has degraded all of the things that were once celebrated as noble and as things one would devote their life to purposes that were worthy of spending your life trying to attain, trying to serve.
00:27:49.240we you know and when i say we i mean western civilization scoffs at glory or dignity or
00:27:59.560you know honor or creating you know creating empire creating legacy um serving king and
00:28:09.880country those things are all you know at best fun historical endeavors for you to read about
00:28:19.500or you know at worst the the evil sins of the oppressor and
00:28:25.540it's created an existential struggle for people to where they don't try that hard because they
00:28:35.920don't have to our challenge is to still try hard even when we don't have to technically
00:28:43.940to find meaning in the things that we do in life and to restore value to things like glory and
00:28:53.000honor and dignity and celebration of race and of nation and of of things so that is
00:29:03.540and i mentioned there's something that we return to on the program um often but with a little bit
00:29:16.280so if you're an npc you can just go through life and consume the stuff that's there because there's
00:29:26.500an abundance of stuff to consume there's an abundance of distraction and you can just kind
00:29:31.640drift along and and you know be an airhead that drifts along on things but once you're aware
00:29:42.360only the most base people can be aware and then somehow retreat back into ignorance once you're
00:29:48.680aware of the things that are wrong it becomes oppressive when you don't see outlets to fix
00:29:57.080the big macro things we see wrong in society and so i think a lot of people spend a lot of time
00:30:06.520beating themselves up mentally about that or eventually burning themselves out and embracing
00:30:14.040throwing up their hands and becoming like the strange degenerate mice um
00:30:19.880Um, the AFA provides a very special and very specific solution to that.
00:30:31.680We are building, we are rebuilding a community of people who do care about those things,
00:30:39.760who are spending our lives in pursuit of the things that are noble and things that are good,
00:30:46.180are doing things that our ancestors would recognize and respect and appreciate.
00:30:52.740In the AFA, you have the ability to do deeds that gain the notice of the gods
00:31:01.360and hopefully gain their being proud of you,
00:31:07.620their acknowledging the work that you've done.
00:31:10.660You have the opportunity to help hundreds, thousands of our people to live better, to raise themselves up, to accomplish and to succeed.
00:31:24.060I mentioned about Frazehoff, that's our fifth Hoff. For a relatively small number of people who are engaged in being pious and caring about what we do and sticking around for years and decades dedicated to something, we're able to accomplish really great things.
00:31:46.220Um, there's a lot that can be done if we put our focus towards it, but it's very easy to be lulled
00:31:54.500into a, I don't know, to be lulled into a spot where you don't want to risk all of the comforts
00:32:01.460that you have to try big endeavors. And so instead you waste time doing nothing. An anecdote, um,
00:32:08.320number of people I went to high school with actually, but very specifically one in particular.
00:32:13.100it. He suffered from like he was too smart for his own good. One of the smartest people I've ever
00:32:25.380met didn't have goals or ambitions that he knew how to put a finger on or decide on. And I think
00:32:36.240that lots of people can be forgiven for not knowing what they want to be when they grow up,
00:32:41.000quote unquote, when they're in high school. But very shortly after high school, he had
00:32:47.420some relative pass and he inherited some money. And then he had, you know, something sounds like
00:32:54.120it's out of a movie, some guy that he met that gave him some really hot stock tip. And he
00:33:01.580rolled the dice on it. And he hit big. When I say big, not like limousines and jets and,
00:33:08.900you know whatever but that's the problem he hit the just enough big
00:33:16.500here you know while we graduated in 99 26 years later
00:33:24.660still got money off of that that he's existing on he's not living the high life
00:33:32.020but again with very little ambitions he's got enough to eat enough to have a roof over his head
00:33:37.780and enough to have an internet subscription or whatever
00:33:43.620so he didn't really have that thing that forces people to have to make a decision
00:33:49.940and do something with themselves and so he didn't and there's a lot of time and a lot
00:33:56.900of years and a lot of missed opportunity because he he lived in a very very comfortable prison
00:34:04.260of his own of his own situation and the ease of the ease and comfort that he found himself in.
00:34:12.420That's really unfortunate. No, a lot of people that way. We've got a lot of things that are
00:34:17.120made tremendously easier. So we don't have the same things pushing us to be successful. I think
00:34:26.400the same is true. You know, Alan mentioned, you know, go out, find yourself a mate and make some
00:34:32.240babies, there was a time to where that being a necessity and not having workarounds like,
00:34:39.800you know, internet dating or pornography or other things to vent natural urges towards
00:34:49.240that you had to go out and make something of yourself. You had to find a way to be appealing,
00:34:55.300even if you weren't like the super supermodel guy, you would find stuff to show and demonstrate
00:35:02.420worth and demonstrate capability. You would have to go do these things. You'd have to get outside
00:35:08.260of your comfort zone and ascend to something in order to get these things accomplished.
00:35:15.400Well, now folks don't. One of the things that, you know, is also a modern phenomenon,
00:35:22.040they've done studies and tried to figure it out with all of the easy access to hookup culture
00:35:27.480and all these hookup apps you would think that more guys than ever are out there you know engaging
00:35:35.880in sexual adventures that tends to not be the case statistically it's the same very small
00:35:45.240percent of naturally high value guys they're just getting more and more and all of the women
00:35:53.320it doesn't really make that work because guys that would have found they're worth0.90
00:35:57.080doing other great things don't try that's why you get other aberrant things like men
00:36:03.720go their own way or whatever this intentional celibatism is and these other0.99
00:36:09.480other gay adjacent things. And that's really unfortunate, but I see that affect a lot of our0.99
00:36:16.840people. Necessity really is that thing in life that spurs people on to have to make decisions
00:36:29.000and have to choose a path and do things. Another person that was a, you know, a one time a friend
00:36:34.820of mine told me that you know the roads are paved with you know the carcasses of squirrels that
00:36:40.200couldn't make a decision you have people actually in the middle of the road running wondering which
00:36:44.640way to go until the car runs them over um so yeah those are any of a number of things that come out
00:36:52.880of the situation that we find ourselves in in our own you know human utopia in air quotes right
00:37:02.960No. And you've touched on all the stuff that, you know, why, why I brought this topic up. You know, you're exactly right. High value men sleep managed to bag or whatever you call it, you know, lots and lots of women, because they're all trying to, they're all competing for the same few men.
00:37:24.100and it devalues both those men and those women and that has a direct parallel with the you know
00:37:31.860with the beautiful mice who were the last few breeding pairs there in mouse utopia where you
00:37:37.780know they were breeding together but then eventually even they stopped breeding which
00:37:42.300is exactly what's happening here you know all these and i'm you know one of the dating phenomena
00:37:48.760that's been studied is that men in a dating app will there's a rank they rate women as a range
00:37:57.040like there's twos four sixes eights tens occasionally but women when they're rating
00:38:06.080guys you're either a nine or a two you know and they don't they don't illustrate anything in
00:38:12.820between and i think that's that selection culture that that women have this idea that a guy has to
00:38:21.420be beautiful and wealthy before he's any rates anything over three and they they've lost the1.00
00:38:31.580idea and and we can spend a lot of time and many sociologists have pondering why it is that women0.90
00:38:40.300have gotten that idea in their heads um so they throw themselves at these uh guys that they think0.98
00:38:47.580are high status that are really just good-looking morons and um you know and then engage in behavior0.98
00:38:57.260that they deplore when men do it and rightly so so um you know then they end up1.00
00:39:05.180in their you know in their middle years living out that desperate loneliness of the career woman0.81
00:39:15.560where they you know because a career doesn't hug you tight at night and a you know and a career
00:39:22.840doesn't need you in the same way that uh you know that a baby does there's just nothing else that
00:39:29.300takes the place of that strategy that says, you know, I can find a good middleman who's
00:39:37.660going to make a good middle-class living, and we can have lots and lots of happy little
00:39:46.280Well, and it's so seductive, too, because the proposition in a more natural environment
00:39:56.860And in an area in society where you begin removing the desperate struggle of life and evolving that into high ideals and high aspirations, things come with that.
00:40:10.480And we don't realize those things.1.00
00:40:14.060so the career you know the the career woman path provides just enough like you can make enough to1.00
00:40:23.520where you have a roof over your head and where you got stuff to eat and it doesn't occur until1.00
00:40:30.880you're already you know knee deep in it and like oh well then what and i think the same thing with
00:40:38.180a lot of the things that guys had to do like i'm not i don't want to have to go toil for you know
00:40:44.580every calorie i get so that i can maybe make it through the winter or whatever of course none of
00:40:49.620us want that but in doing that generations past had to learn skills that got them there they had
00:40:57.380to develop competency and confidence they had to develop a wide variety of things that add
00:41:04.340you know the value to existence that a lot of folks lack today so finding and they got to see
00:41:13.800the value of honest work you know the where's where so much now is um you know sitting in an
00:41:22.480office pushing paper around or pushing internet streams around um you know it's it's very different
00:41:28.740from uh uh you know a physical location where like you can see the barrel maker and what he
00:41:36.420contributes to the you know to the overall well-being of the community in the exact same way
00:41:42.340that the uh you know that the farrier does and the milkmaid and all that stuff you know it used
00:41:48.260to be that there was a very visceral connection between all of these trades and so we've lost that
00:41:56.820idea that even by doing a little you're doing your part and i was actually thinking about that you
00:42:03.860know when you you know in relation to us now having phrase off and having paid off
00:42:10.660the first four you know we own four outright and that's because you know these because all of you
00:42:18.020all of you and our friends and have contributed a little a little a little and then boom it's a lot
00:42:26.340and that's the way that civilization works you know each man does his each man holds his part
00:42:31.780of the shield wall and you know and between all of us we you know we prevail well so something else
00:42:41.620that another strange path this takes us down is something that i have
00:42:58.020one of the reasons that eastern religion is so very self-denying
00:43:06.020like the goal is to become one with like nothingness or whatever but the the ego death of0.98
00:43:13.780your individuality it's coming out of a set of cultures to where people are just stacked
00:43:23.540up on top of people upon top of people on top of people with sewage running in the streets
00:43:31.060from their excessive defecations in the drinking water and whatever else and it's not a
00:43:36.660it's not a great existence and the other thing is there's such a hyper abundance of creatures
00:43:45.380that the individual worth of a person isn't there you don't run into people that know your name at
00:43:54.360the store that your kids do go to school together that you have those things because just the odds
00:44:00.860are you're in an endless sea of and it's helped that those people are very hard to differentiate
00:44:06.620between um you chuckle but i'm not wrong um it's thing and i don't i think that's something very
00:44:18.460special about us that we do celebrate the individual as much our concept of salvation
00:44:26.300in its most obvious i think to the listeners form of the einherjar in the name speaks to
00:44:35.020individuality um the the singular warrior um someone who's distinguished themselves from the
00:44:43.900pack and i think that's really important and i think it's a fundamental to ausitru that sets us
00:44:49.900apart from many other uh many other religions in our world today and and the and western civilization
00:44:57.500you know we talked last time about the faustian bargain and this western restlessness that we have
00:45:05.180that had you know to to get out and and be that rugged individual out there on the tip of the
00:45:11.020sphere and and rightly so and but you know the downside of that in the context of mouse utopia
00:45:21.020is that you know we have provided the hard men that have come before us have provided you know
00:45:27.900uh pax anglorum which is you know the english peace um throughout
00:45:33.260our part of the civilization so we don't know hard times we have a super abundance of everything
00:45:41.120um and you know so we just have that uh coalesce coalescence of
00:45:50.580um tracks that have put us where we have you know all this food and no and no enemy in sight
00:45:58.980But and without the social structure supporting the other things. So if you eliminate the struggle, then you create high ideal, you celebrate artists and theologians and heroes.
00:46:16.980And, you know, all of us can name any number of useless, you know, actors or quote unquote musical artists or whatever else.
00:46:35.480And I don't, and again, don't get me wrong.
00:46:38.120There are some really tremendous actors.
00:46:39.940There are some other people that just look good and get a bunch of roles.
00:46:43.680There are some people that are tremendous at making music.
00:46:46.480There are other people that, you know, just make some one hit wonders that we kind of sing along to.
00:46:52.560But none of us know the name of any Medal of Honor winner in the last 80, 90 years.
00:47:05.100At a different time, we would all know the greatest warriors of our folk.
00:47:10.040Those people would be celebrated and, you know, parades in their honor and, you know, bestowal of medals and things before the king and before, you know, crowds of adoring peasantry and things.
00:47:26.500No, we don't celebrate those kind of things, you know, in a different vein.0.57
00:47:30.860We don't know the name of scientists unless they're like black science man that has like a show or an entertainment thing that's adjacent.
00:47:38.440we don't know the names of people who achieve great things unless they are like elon musk and
00:47:44.940they are so far in their achievement that it's undeniable and they own lots of stuff that you
00:47:50.440can't avoid it so it's our challenge is to find ways to actualize within the abundance that our
00:48:01.980ancestors have provided us. And I think the AFA does a very good job of providing that and
00:48:08.540structuring towards that. You know, I'll mention that none of us are perfect. And the AFA is
00:48:13.960certainly not perfect, but we're more perfect today than we were two years ago. We were more
00:48:19.180perfect two years ago than we were 20 years before that. You know, this time next year,
00:48:25.120when I talk to you guys, hopefully we're even closer towards that goal than we are now. That's
00:48:29.640always the goal but I think we're making an active stride towards it and this is a very good
00:48:34.980opportunity for people to be involved in something with a grander purpose something bigger than
00:48:39.800themselves something to gain the attention of the gods and to make the ancestors proud and to build
00:48:45.820lasting things for our children and their children and we're absolutely doing that and we'd invite
00:48:52.900you to be part of doing that with us because and that's actually one of the cornerstones of
00:48:59.760happiness is to you know is to have purpose um where everything's handed to you you have no
00:49:05.500purpose um which is why you know there are some millionaires and some of them have been criticized
00:49:11.820i think it's bill gates who said you know he's his kids are not getting anything um you know
00:49:17.400And but because he he has recognized, I don't want to give him much morals, although he's right about population.
00:49:24.060But, you know, the only way that you can recognize that self-worth is to struggle against the, you know, against the forces that we all that every person that every civilization struggles against.0.91
00:49:44.400You know, it's the struggle for self-realization, you know, and the struggle against becoming the NPC who just overindulges in the mindless entertainment and the hyperabundance of food that we have and slacks back off.
00:50:05.860And it's a relentless battle, but that's where discipline comes in, and certainly that's where the AFA can help you and help everyone, help all of us maintain that sense of identity and maintain that sense of purpose.
00:50:23.180It certainly gives me a sense of purpose to be able to play my part in manifesting the greatness that we have done over the last 20 years.
00:50:35.860Well, it's a funny kind of accidental turn of phrase or whatever, but yes, it will help you and it will help us. And ideally, we help each other to achieve that. One of the beautiful things I think about the AFA is we have a group of people that are very committed to seeing each other succeed.
00:50:53.860And I've watched that in so many different ways, both great and small, of AFA members helping one another to be the best they can be, to achieve, to succeed, to break through blockages, to overcome obstacles, and to become more than we were, and to reciprocate that back and forth to where we all rise up because we're all helping each other.
00:51:20.980Something I was remiss to do. Leroy from Michigan donated $100 to Frazehoff. Thank you very much. We appreciate you. I'm sorry it took me so long to acknowledge your donation, but you're awesome. Thank you so much for that.
00:51:35.140Um, something that this also, again, this topic, the mouse utopia thing touches on, you know, everything in some, some, it's so much of our life struggle in society and such a poignant microcosm.
00:51:56.420So the overriding theme of our folk, of our faith, and of this that we do is the struggle against chaos, the chaos that comes from entropy.
00:52:15.140you have to stay in motion you have to stay strong striving to spiral upwards because the
00:52:22.660default state is a spiral towards disintegration and chaos and a breakdown of order a breakdown of
00:52:30.660society a breakdown of everything else that's shown completely in the mouse utopia and the
00:52:36.260spiral in you know creatures with that short of a lifespan you see that happen real real quick
00:52:44.340If we are not doing things to push ourselves forward, then we are being pulled backwards.
00:52:57.300We see it in different facets of life, different facets of society.
00:53:01.220But it is sure and it is, you know, eternal.
00:53:06.560So finding ways to get ourselves to move forward because you have to, even on simple things.0.79
00:53:13.940So we talk about it's easy to get lost in big historical context, like, oh, we need to go, you know, conquer Russia.0.96
00:53:22.600We need to go, you know, bring the Somali land under our subjugation.0.74
00:53:29.040We need to go, like, do these great things.1.00
00:53:33.320A lot of the time, no, you just need to get up, get your clothes on and get out of the house.
00:53:37.600Maybe you don't have to get out of the house that day because you don't need to for your job.
00:53:41.940but it's good for you to get out of the house no you need to go to the gym not because you need to0.99
00:53:46.880battle you know wild beasts but because you don't want to be a fat slob um you need to make the0.77
00:53:54.180efforts to do good things and to accomplish stuff not because you have to but because you should0.99
00:54:00.380because on the other side of it you are better for it and you've gained fame amongst people
00:54:06.300that appreciate it. And then that comes back to the Sigurheim idea in Tennessee, trying to build
00:54:12.540community. In the AFA, we have a substantial community. It's separated by miles of my space,
00:54:20.580but it's much more densely populated than it once was. And that gets better every day.
00:54:26.040What we would like to see people do to the best of everybody's ability,
00:54:30.060get closer to your fellow AFA members. We mentioned our five HOFs. If you're able and you want to have
00:54:39.780community that you don't have, move to one of the spaces that we have a HOF and are building a
00:54:47.020community around it. I would encourage everyone who can to move to Jackson County, Tennessee,
00:54:53.620where we are deeply engaged and invested in building community my family will be out there
00:55:03.460as soon as possible hopefully many of our leadership and many of our membership will
00:55:10.100follow that and come out there and be part of it but if you can't you got five other options
00:55:15.380of places that you can move towards to be closer to people in your area and as we continue as your
00:55:24.020generosity continues as our faith continues these centers of community these hofs will occur in more
00:55:33.460and more places closer and closer to our members that find themselves alone the you know creation0.63
00:55:40.180of community. And gathering ourselves together and vanishing the idea of alienation is part of
00:55:49.180our declaration. It's part of what we're all engaged in. And it's what we're doing. And we
00:55:54.760invite you again to be part of it. Well, and, you know, I thought that Michigan was pretty close to
00:56:00.580Ohio. Although, since I rarely venture north of the line, I was not really sure how exactly close
00:56:08.460was but the other but leroy can come on december 6th and come down and see because it looks like
00:56:16.060he's pretty close unless he's a yupa uh up there you know just yeah the ferry ride short
00:56:23.740exactly exactly and they're uh and and they're as everyone knows when they come to a hawk i mean
00:56:32.060that's how you that's how you build community irl as the kids say you know it's it's being together
00:56:40.300in meat space um with uh you know with with with other people other right thinking people and i
00:56:49.580you know it really shocks me anymore if i spend much time in out there in npc culture i
00:57:02.060Realize how magnificent a community that we've built with the people who have dug through these questions of society and civilization and religion and come to all the right answers about what the problems are and how to solve it.
00:57:26.880So the other part, in addition to being online and chatting with each other on Rumble or TikTok or whatever, is coming out to the Hoffs on each third Saturday and seeing and meeting and talking with some of the greatest people that you'll ever meet.
00:57:56.880because it really is it's you know it's like a homecoming and then once you've integrated into
00:58:03.160the culture you know it's you know it it does it really does feel like home the you know a lot of
00:58:11.520my the rest of my time is spent waiting to get back to the off because that's the you know that's
00:59:39.520And, you know, that may be a time like we could suggest to our lady folk out there to start bringing some of their friends, you know, because there are many more women in Ossetru than there used to be.
00:59:55.380I started doing it in 2005. You know, we have had a welcome influx of families and ladies. But, you know, you're still outnumbered.
01:00:08.380And so for, you know, if for no other reason than to bring yourself back into parity, you know, where there are more women to have a voice and, you know, so that you have other ladies to talk to, you know, bring some friends.
01:00:27.960So I have a hard time meeting and I, you know, I would find myself in that same spot if I wasn't, you know, an old dude that, you know, that late in life.0.91
01:00:44.960I mean, it's a tough go to meet normal women out there now because they've all been they've been sucked into the mind to the trifecta of mind virus.0.91
01:00:56.300pyri is that the right word the viruses out there that are afflicting western civilization are1.00
01:01:02.460accelerated in the minds of women and they are so you know please find some normal women and1.00
01:01:09.820bring them absolutely and what i'm saying you can do that women are doing that they're bringing
01:01:18.380their friends it gains a momentum um women when they see other women and families at afa events
01:01:28.460and they show those pictures to their friends the friends see that they're much like more likely to0.54
01:01:33.260come around and so they have it gets better all the time and numerous families that i know were
01:01:42.140started in the outstreet folk assembly in just such a just such a situation so i would encourage
01:01:49.340everybody to to do that um that is a place where the internet is a tremendous tool to
01:01:57.580reach across distance to maintain relationships to locate people at distance that share your values
01:02:07.980and then to adjust your your meat space pun intended i suppose um to work out the way it
01:02:17.660needs to be and and i okay and i say that but i say that as someone who lived in alaska mandy
01:02:24.300lived in florida we met at winter nights in pennsylvania a month and a half later i'd
01:02:30.300packed everything and moved down to florida to make that happen it can absolutely happen and
01:02:37.980know here we are i've got a math unfortunately mandy's not grumpy about that kind of thing
01:02:47.740eight years married and uh got a beautiful five-year-old daughter and and we're so blessed
01:02:55.100because of it so it absolutely happens um so we got some questions tonight uh first one
01:03:03.340why do you use stoles for your priests it's a weird choice for a nordic religion to use a garment
01:03:11.340synonymous with roman catholicism why not use something more appropriate um so i
01:03:18.060first i don't stipulate that it's inappropriate um i think that it's quite appropriate secondly
01:03:24.940there's a couple reasons i want to i want to throw those reasons out as wise i'm the guy that made
01:03:29.620that call. And a couple of few things. I get that we all have seen Catholic priests that
01:03:39.920have stoles on. I will stipulate that. But like so much of Catholicism, that's not a
01:03:48.580biblical thing. It's not a Jewish thing. It is absolutely a pagan European thing. It traces0.93
01:03:55.220its roots to latin paganism and it's something that was worn to show
01:04:02.580wisdom and like accumulated knowledge now that was accumulated within the priesthood but we
01:04:08.580see kind of dual traditions of that to where ecclesiastical use through the catholic church
01:04:16.100happens but also academic use in you know it's why everyone at graduation wears stoles it's from
01:04:22.500that same root and that root has nothing to do with the middle east or uh christianity but i
01:04:29.700it's also something to know it has become what men of the cloth wear to where it's something
01:04:38.820that is recognizable as a religious vestment hindus also wear stoles that's something that
01:04:47.780that the hindus notably do as a non-abrahamic thing again it comes from aryan roots um
01:04:57.380but it means something to the people that see it it means that oh this person is a priest
01:05:04.340what they're doing is priest stuff and people take that seriously i'm not sure what costuming
01:05:12.980or you know to be more generous what wardrobing you'd think would be more appropriate
01:05:19.040but I doubt that it would get the same reaction when you're going into a hospital to minister to
01:05:25.300someone who's at the end of their life or when you're going in to do prison ministry or when
01:05:30.480you're interacting with society at large they know that that means you are a religious person
01:05:37.600doing a religious function, and there is a value to that that's afforded you. I'm not opposed to
01:05:46.260other things that also accomplish that, but a stole is a European religious thing, and because
01:05:55.300the religion of Europe for a thousand years was Christianity, I can see why there's mental
01:06:00.620overlap there, but it's, you know, it's not a biblical garment, and it is one that comes from
01:06:05.800european paganism alan do you have any thoughts on that um i agree with you wholeheartedly what
01:06:13.500you said about the vestment um the troll the but and there's also the parallel to us making the
01:06:20.580hammer sign you know where um i haven't heard about it lately but you know it uh in a long time
01:06:28.060ago the you know the hammer sign that we make in the four uh gods that we name but uh you know
01:06:38.040some you know there used to be a range of criticism about that being a copy or a knockoff
01:06:46.160of the catholics making the sign of the cross um but it is tested you know there is
01:06:52.560testimony in the lore that, you know, that, and I'm not the lore guy, you know, but I know one
01:07:00.120of the sagas mentioned that one of the great leaders made the sign of the hammer over the
01:07:05.260food. And so it could just as easily be, just like with the stole, it could just as easily be that
01:07:10.960the Catholics stole the, making the sign of the cross from the heathens who were making the sign
01:07:17.680a hammer and i see absolutely no uh downside to repurposing those things you know i mean we could
01:07:28.240say the same thing why do you why do you worship in a church because you know that's the you know
01:07:34.000that's the ex it's the expected thing to do i you know some things are normal for a reason and you
01:07:43.280You know, and I'm always careful about using that word and that and that concept.
01:07:49.280But, you know, some things are just because it's normal doesn't mean it's not OK.
01:07:55.420You know, yeah, the fact is a good thing.
01:08:02.460And I think, you know, we've all had those kind of concepts, especially when we come from something else and find this anew.
01:08:10.880if you leave, and I'm not suggesting that the one asking the question feels this way or doesn't,
01:08:16.340this is kind of for everybody out there listening. In the early days of modern Ausitru,
01:08:22.880also in the early days of, you know, a great many of us who came to Ausitru from something else,
01:08:29.220there is a tendency to rebel against whatever that something else is, and in doing so,
01:08:36.540throw the baby out with the bathwater the problem with christianity isn't the stole or the cathedral
01:08:45.500or the priesthood or the whatever it's jesus it's the doctrine it's that um
01:08:56.940something that you notice when people accuse us of being too christian
01:09:01.580i think they mean we're too serious because serious white people practicing serious religion
01:09:10.000tend to look a certain way and i don't think any of that is a biblical thing i don't think any of
01:09:16.400the elements that you find in that are biblical i think what you find as a point of commonality
01:09:21.700is pious white people engaged in worship looks a certain way and i think you know that's as it
01:09:30.280should be and i think i would also encourage everybody to read the germanization of early
01:09:36.300medieval christianity and you know who would have thunk it but it's about the germanization
01:09:43.840of early medieval christianity it's about how much the uh early church in europe um
01:09:51.860appropriated, adopted practice and tradition from the various branches of Arian paganism they found
01:10:02.440in order to facilitate very proud people in doing something that's so very different from their folk
01:10:12.100custom, they painted it in the customs of our folk to make it appealing. And that's still with
01:10:19.380us today in more ways than I think many people would realize. We also have, coming from not
01:10:28.880being religious for years and new to Ausitru, what are some suggestions on becoming more
01:10:35.120pious within Ausitru? What would you suggest, law speaker?
01:10:38.820the one thing i always suggest to individuals seeking to
01:10:47.060um increase their feeling of uh kinship with the gods is is to create an altar at home um
01:10:59.780i can see mud from here but it's uh you know i have
01:11:06.660I have a hammer, I have, you know, a couple of bells, I have pictures of my ancestors, you know, and candles. And every morning I light a candle and do a little devotional to my ancestors. And in doing so, that honors the gods.
01:11:27.300um you know i i think that we honor the gods also and primarily by remembering our folk by
01:11:37.940remembering our own people um your own grandparents are you know your direct
01:11:44.760lineage that lead you uh to the all father and so by remembering them and giving them fealty
01:11:51.680and honor um you also honor the gods and by having an altar
01:11:57.080it it makes it more real you know there's just there's a physical manifestation
01:12:05.660on items that you care about and items that that represent and and therefore manifest your
01:12:13.640you're fealty and you're and give you that ability to um
01:12:20.600recollect you know how how you are every time you walk by that altar
01:12:28.760so that's you know that that's a start is to have an altar and to
01:12:32.280and to do some form of worship there every day i mean that's um there have been several
01:12:40.840movies that i've seen where just as a you know just as an aside like the roman legionnaire when
01:12:49.100he's like every morning he he's got a little role and he unrolls and he's got his little idols that
01:12:55.500he does you know that he does stuff with and and so he's practicing his ancestral faith which
01:13:04.500helps to integrate him into the you know into the whole of of that religious practice and we
01:13:11.700and that that i think is is an important first step um and you know that along with having a
01:13:17.920morning prayer um a morning devotional a morning meditation ideally that uh that again helps you
01:13:25.640manifest that real um i know that mr founder mcdowell says the secret driven wall every
01:13:33.860morning you know um and when you hail the day and realize that this reality is a gift from the gods
01:13:43.460that our consciousness is odin's gift to us then then you are bringing that realness that reality
01:13:52.600of that practice into yourself every day
01:13:54.780yeah what Alan said I think altar work is a big step I think something else that's very important
01:14:07.800is trying to think the best way to phrase it
01:14:15.720you have to approach it with a certain level of openness
01:14:23.680it's difficult when people who are not used to um faith spirituality in general
01:14:37.260approach these things because there's an intellectual bias there like you have to
01:14:43.360empirically prove certain things or not i would ask you to reject that premise and just be open
01:14:50.780and see what happens. You asking the question tells me that you want to fully engage in
01:14:58.180Ausitru. If you're dishonest and pretend you have a sincerity of faith that you don't
01:15:05.100have, I think that dishonesty is also a blockage. But what I think is really important to do
01:15:11.780is to open yourself up, open your mind, open your heart when you approach your altar, or
01:15:18.040you're able to be in ritual with other people and see what happens you don't need to pretend that
01:15:24.840you have a greater faith than you have but you also need to be open to wanting to have that faith
01:15:31.560you need to give it you can't go in saying oh this is silly i guess i'll do this silly thing
01:15:37.960we're going in with the wrong attitude you have to go into it saying i really want this to be a
01:15:44.520thing i really want to develop a relationship with the gods here i am this is where i'm at
01:15:52.440here is an offering i hope that you accept it i want to build relationship with you gods
01:15:59.400and see where that goes and it really can start out just that simple that was something that
01:16:05.880helped me a lot when i came to house the truth but i had been you know acquainted with religion
01:16:13.400before that so it wasn't i don't think as difficult of a transition as perhaps it is
01:16:19.160for somebody who's not a person of faith or who hasn't been in the past to becoming one
01:16:25.160but i would also advise you from day one to focus your mindset towards the gods in ritual
01:16:38.040speak to the gods not about the gods but to the gods leave an offering as a gift
01:16:48.280to a living sentient entity that is receiving your gifts don't just go through the motions
01:16:56.920go through them with an intent of interacting with something that is real that is conscious
01:17:02.680and that interacts with you that's very important and i would also refocus your
01:17:12.680way of seeing things not to be an academic pursuit pursuing academics is fine but the focus
01:17:20.680in your mind should be am i making the gods proud or not are the gods pleased with what i'm doing
01:17:28.280or are they not what would the gods want me to do those kind of thoughts are pious too many people
01:17:37.960get overwhelmed with the study of history or the study of whatever else and they focus on some
01:17:44.440kind of an authentic replica replication of ancient practices that's not the point the reason
01:17:51.720that ancient people did those practices was because of the things just mentioned to make
01:17:57.320the gods proud of them to get the god's attention to please the gods that should be your focus all
01:18:03.880the rest of it can inform that and enhance that but it should never ever supplant that that always
01:18:09.800needs to be the second thought not the first thought if you build it they will come
01:18:17.960and that's the thing if you're open and i've seen this happen and you know i will say it this
01:18:24.440miraculous thing happen time and time again where people give it a good shot they're honest about
01:18:32.760where they're at they go in to bloat wanting to build a relationship and very open to one
01:18:42.840and you know every now and again something amazing happens you see their eyes light up to where
01:18:49.160they thought it was real they wanted it to be real oh wow this is real it hit me in the face
01:18:55.420and I hope that you're lucky enough to have that kind of an experience I hope you're lucky enough
01:19:01.760to have many of those experiences but you can't force them you do have to be open to them and
01:19:08.020able to recognize them when they come your way. Oh, so something I wanted to mention, too, that
01:19:19.800I saw over in side chat. Silver cellulose hood. Awesome. I'm glad that you joined. I'm glad that
01:19:29.260you joined the AFA, and I'm very excited that you're going to attend your first moot here in
01:19:35.140tomorrow, I guess, in Eastern Pennsylvania. That's awesome. I wish you the very best in that.
01:19:43.420I'm excited that you took that step and that you're a member. Welcome to the family. We are
01:19:49.840glad to have you. So question coming in from Jill. Matt and Alan, could the AFA host socials?
01:20:04.200So our teens and young adults can meet like a modern day cotillion.
01:20:11.080The problem has been and remains distance.
01:20:17.120Something as a matter of fact, in talking about the new off that Witten Erickson and myself were just talking about, you know, a little over a week ago.
01:25:23.880we're in the county of jackson we're in jackson county tennessee uh closest
01:25:30.600place you find is whitleyville but whitleyville is like a tire shop and a post office i think
01:25:39.240it's not a lot of general and a dollar general there's a dollar general is it in fact in
01:25:44.440whitleyville that's the thing it's kind of deceptive the closest town that i think you
01:25:48.680would recognize as a town is uh gainesboro and it's a beautiful little town um
01:25:58.040but yeah jackson county tennessee is where we have property uh building a town there's existing
01:26:03.480town there but establishing a community absolutely many of us are trying to move there and
01:26:11.560really be a presence there and be fully engaged in the community and you know active and support
01:26:18.520one another, engage in, you know, engage in life with our fellow AFA members outside of just,
01:26:27.160you know, the once a month at the Hoff. When we get there, we'd like to do stuff together
01:26:30.900often. And the closer we are to something, you know, where there will be a Hoff and a Hall,
01:26:36.580we can gather at that weekly. We can gather at that however many times we want. That's one of
01:26:40.720the beauties of fixing the proximity problem. But it does mean many of us picking up and
01:26:46.140moving into, you know, uncertain territory and, and making, making our way. And I want you guys
01:26:52.940to understand, I get that. And I am not, you know, we're not creating this in Reno, Nevada.
01:26:59.160I too am, am packing up something that's working pretty good to go and pursue this dream because
01:27:05.960it's very important and it's essential that we do so and that we make it happen. And I think that if
01:27:10.900If we are putting forth all the right effort on our end, then I think trusting in the ICER, they will, you know, align for some really beautiful things to happen in our way.
01:27:26.680And I think we'll be very well rewarded for that.
01:28:56.560Um, so, you know, it, we kid, but it's not, it's not out of the realm of, of something to do. It's something that everybody absolutely should do. The closer we have people there, we have seen something really special happen when we have Hoffs.
01:29:17.880the community really does start to take root and it provides a context to live out our values in
01:29:27.520a way supported by our brothers and sisters in this faith it's a very special thing and if you
01:29:33.380haven't gotten to experience it it's well worth doing you know people regularly travel three
01:29:40.100hours to our hoffs to just be part of that for one day a month closer in you are the more more
01:29:46.440often you get that interaction and it's uh it's well worth it
01:29:53.720so we got a couple of things we have some emails coming in um
01:30:00.200good evening i'll hear you go through matt law speaker allen and folk builder nick
01:30:05.480how are you all doing tonight doing well
01:30:08.280my question is what's the essence of being a man and then a second question what's the essence of
01:30:18.560being a woman alan what is the essence of being male and what is the essence of being female
01:30:25.540i can't speak to the latter as i am not one um and um would tend to reply to that in
01:30:37.680uh, you know, in, in ways that would sound flippant, but are merely mice crackery.
01:30:44.260I think the essence of being a man is in, in many ways is just to be able to stand your
01:37:30.980not arian yet they have the the building blocks of genetic arianness there's nothing noble about1.00
01:37:41.780them but they are a in in our faith there's a concept of murk and leos there's light and dark1.00
01:37:55.760And that's describing natures of things.
01:37:59.780There'll be, you know, like the wolf displayed, you know, Ulther in a noble, this noble beast that we respect its awesome attributes and its ingenuity and its ability as a hunter and all these things.
01:38:17.320and there's the varger which is the murk side of the wolf to where they're uh kenning for a
01:38:24.680bandit or a criminal and they scavenge things and they they poach your your hard tended to crop
01:38:34.920And you see Antifa as the antithesis of what we want to be and of like the kind of full evolution of chaos taking hold.
01:38:55.060When you allow entropy to take hold and you become at the sway of whatever popular social current, you find these very, very sickly, disgusting, profoundly unhappy people that spew that unhappiness onto the rest of society.
01:39:29.760and malignant creatures at that point.
01:39:34.420I think in a way it's like Lord of the Rings
01:39:36.880when Gollum mutates into this creepy creature
01:39:41.420when you let the worst side of yourself take hold
01:39:45.700and become the dominant portion of you, it leads in a really sad and gross direction.0.96
01:39:55.200Anecdotally, one of our members a number of years back, there is a globo homo universalist pagan organization called The Troth.0.92
01:40:05.200and because they were so scared of of the covids that they you know as far as i know to this day0.71
01:40:14.740host virtual moots where they're in mom's basement but still wearing masks and such
01:40:20.460he you know paid the minimal entrance fee to be part of this virtual meeting
01:40:28.560and took a screenshot of like the the brady bunch screen with the people in the different
01:40:34.760little corners or whatever. And it was, it was exactly the caricature of what you think it might
01:40:45.040be. Everyone on there was a picture of illness and dysfunction. They were all obese. They were
01:40:56.160almost all gender ambiguous to the point of where you're just guessing. They all had the like1.00
01:41:03.480faded out pink green not vibrant because not well taken care of dyed hair and the you know
01:41:14.040crazy facial piercings and they all look but not only were they all dysfunctional they all shared
01:41:23.300the same like flavor of that and that's kind of what you see with the antifa crowd
01:41:30.200So, yeah, they're a shining example of what happens when you let chaos rule your person and where this heads.
01:41:41.620And I think it is a chilling dystopia that none of us want to find ourselves in.
01:41:46.180I think that, you know, in a certain way, I feel sorry for them.
01:41:51.780You know, they've certainly been misled by they've been miseducated.
01:41:56.380They've been misled by popular culture.
01:42:00.420They've just fallen victim to the trap that is modern civilization that just leads you away from all of that.
01:42:11.960And I just think it's because they can't concentrate.
01:42:14.380I think they've lost their ability to focus.
01:42:17.080They can't hold one thought in their head for more than a couple of seconds.0.95
01:42:20.940That's why they can't frame context to these big pictures, like why we shouldn't let illegal immigrants into the country or whatever the fight this week is about.0.94
01:42:29.440You know, I think we would do them all a favor if we could organize like some kind of retreat somewhere, maybe out in the country, like, you know, a camp where we could teach them how to concentrate.0.62
01:42:45.460I will let you host that particular retreat.
01:42:48.300um i uh yeah i there is something absolutely to be pitied uh and i don't think as much
01:43:03.100with the older people that find themselves involved in that but i think a lot of young people
01:43:36.580Right. In some form or another of that definition. But, you know, I think if you haven't had a father figure in the home that you can look up to see what right thinking and, you know, right and right control and honor and discipline looks like.
01:43:53.660I think that can lead to that sort of. So something that's a really unfortunate truth.
01:44:04.800And I, and I meant this a little bit ago, and this is kind of the nature of chaos.
01:44:09.640I think anecdotally, we've all heard the, you know, hurt people, hurt people, or misery loves company, both of which are true.
01:44:18.520The Antifa crowd and that woke, the woke crowd take to their, the furthest limits.
01:44:34.800And it's as if they are waging a war against happiness itself.
01:44:42.760Every choice that they make is almost intentionally a choice of the most degeneracy and the least satisfaction and the least happiness.1.00
01:44:54.620And this very much crosses the boundary of the transsexual mental illness that we find1.00
01:45:07.300so forced upon us lately in recent years.1.00
01:45:13.000These people, and I don't just mean the trainees, I mean, people who are that hyper woke that
01:45:19.600that's become their identity are a very, very high percentage of suicides because something
01:45:28.420is very deeply broken. And I think a lot of those people try to outpace the broken by
01:45:35.820their activism, but tearing down everything that we like doesn't fix what's broken internally
01:45:45.740within them when they find themselves in the the stillness of their own thoughts or whatever when
01:45:52.380they they try to go to bed at night or whatever they do they are they can't escape the dysfunction
01:46:00.620that's rotted them out from the inside and it's a very i mean it's a very cautionary tale to the
01:46:07.180the rest of us to avoid that. What else we got? If it's not too long of a story, what led to
01:46:17.900Jackson County being picked? How many places did y'all scope out first? Alan, tell your part of
01:46:26.840that story or what the story is from your perspective on that, if you would.
01:46:32.940Dude, that's your story. Daniel's not here to tell it, but I mean, I think Tennessee was on your short list.
01:46:40.860It was on the short list because it's, I think there's still a lot of old time tradition there. It has very lenient land use laws and the people are still very traditionalist minded.
01:47:02.940You know, just for an example, I mean, this certainly didn't come into us picking Tennessee, but, you know, one time the last ceremony we were up there for, maybe not the last one before, but there was a, you know, one of the bars in Cookville, which is the nearest town of any size, meaning like 50,000 people.
01:47:23.600One of the bars tried to have a drag show and the cops, instead of coming down and, you know, defending the people who were having the drag show like would happen in most of the cities, they shut the bar down.
01:47:36.920They found a reason to shut the bar down because their paperwork button didn't work.
01:47:40.640So it's so however we ended up there, it has it is definitely the right it is definitely the right spot.
01:47:48.120So, a number of things go into play. On a decision like that, and I meant this earlier, I always want to make sure we are doing our best, and also asking for the gods to give us guidance.
01:48:15.240and I think about that when we get Hoffs or when there's any major AFA decision
01:48:22.400I don't want to you know let Jesus take the wheel and abdicate my responsibility to make a good0.99
01:48:29.780choice but I also want to while doing my best to make a good choice ask that the Isir show me the1.00
01:48:41.820way to what would bring them glory, or what they approve of, and to dissuade me if I'm going to0.98
01:48:49.120take a path they don't approve of. And I think that that is very helpful. I think anytime something
01:48:59.120works out, it's because the ice here have provided their their guidance to us. And I think anytime
01:49:05.800something doesn't work out, it's because I screwed up. Tennessee as a general rule,
01:49:15.480it's a couple of things. No sales tax, or not sales tax, no state income tax rather,
01:49:22.880is a big thing. I didn't want to be in a state with state income tax for all kind of practical
01:49:27.480reasons. Finding it was important to a number of us who plan on being some of the root population
01:49:38.380there, and myself in particular, I want to be, you know, I'd like to be in Dixie. I think that's
01:49:44.940important culturally and values-wise. Being in Dixie that's less humid, arguably, is nice,
01:49:59.140even though it gets real humid in the summer. Having topography matters. There's a lot of
01:50:09.080places down south that are very, very flat. I need hills and topography. I think those
01:50:15.160are good for our people. I think they're good in general. So that was part of it. I
01:50:24.580think the laws in Tennessee were very favorable. It was... One second. All right. So the laws
01:50:37.900very favorable and good there uh they're consistently very solidly conservative i don't
01:50:46.220think that you can bank on that but you gotta pick a good place to start i think it's a real
01:50:50.380good starting point we've seen a lot of places that that doesn't last forever or whatever but
01:50:57.020you gotta choose something and i think that's a strong indicator of it being a relatively safe
01:51:02.860place for families for us to build a future with people that have a sense of tradition a sense of
01:51:08.300traditional values um demographics looked nice also so that all of that kind of put us in
01:51:15.500tennessee not jackson county in specific and then we started you know just pricing out places seeing
01:51:21.820what we get for our money what stuff is for sale where are they where are their things as that
01:51:27.500progressed, we, with our Hoffs or with Sigurheim, this is a difficult thing for me, because I'm
01:51:37.520sitting out here in Reno, thousands, you know, thousands of miles away, and so I got to have
01:51:44.980other people go do a lot of the look into these spots, and I'm trying to scout them from distance
01:51:49.940and Google Maps and Google Earth and, you know, look up all the stuff, but we have to have somebody
01:51:55.460boots on the ground doing these things. So Witten Daniel Young was my point guy on going out and
01:52:03.460looking at properties and getting this figured out. And we had the help of a wonderful realtor
01:52:11.960in the area and she has been very helpful to us. And so, you know, if anybody is seriously
01:52:17.460considering getting something out there, talk to us and we'll try to get you connected because
01:52:22.100love to you know give as much business her way as we can um but yeah we were led to a number of
01:52:29.380spots there and we've actually there were a couple of different properties in uh jackson county and
01:52:37.140that we looked at and we wanted to send our our man daniel out there to check him out
01:52:43.140this is the spot that kind of came up that had all of the optimal things i remember he
01:52:50.260while he was there walking it with whoever the the listing agent was he was you know amazing we
01:52:57.800could get the signal on top of the different ridge lines trying to get you know FaceTime with
01:53:03.920me so I'd see it he was he was so nervous um trying to make the call because he was you know
01:53:10.620he was the guy on point making the call and then he's like oh they're gonna be mad at me and
01:53:14.940whatever no it's beautiful it's wonderful it's the perfect spot i'm very very happy about it
01:53:21.740and we've got amazing things that we're gonna we're gonna build from there so i'm it's
01:53:28.380things turn out good when you when you do the work but you also trust in the gods
01:53:35.100um oh and you asked how many places i'd say that we had
01:53:40.140I can remember five or six different properties that were on our short list of him like driving
01:53:46.640out and walking and kind of taking a look at. What would your, oh, Gilbert. Thank you, Gilbert.
01:53:57.480Gilbert donated $150 towards Frazehoff. Much appreciated. It's always much appreciated.
01:54:05.580you are awesome thank you so much um what would be your advice for someone who was raised around0.99
01:54:14.940the troth the troth like people and are struggling to maintain a more noble existence while not1.00
01:54:21.740passing on while not passing on these poisoning tendencies to their kids
01:54:28.060so question and we'll we'll answer it in the meantime but if you're over in the chat asking it
01:54:36.500if you could tell us your age i think that would help too but alan what say you well i think the
01:54:45.080easy first step of course is just to um to thank the cots that you have found your way to uh to
01:54:56.540the afa um the you know as we say sometimes you know to say folk is also true is redundant
01:55:06.380you know whatever it is that the truth is doing it's not also true some made up stuff that uh
01:55:14.460that to try to help themselves feel better about their lives which won't ever work um
01:55:21.640And the other part of it, I think, is you can just realize, you know, thank your ancestors, thank your desire for steering you out of that.0.96
01:55:36.360And, you know, thank your, you know, your odinic consciousness for giving you the perception to see that that is the wrong path.0.99
02:00:46.980okay and i think this is an add-on to the question it's not quite the same
02:00:50.500the who cares part is hard because they are my parents and aunts etc um
02:00:58.500um Alan do you have anything I was gonna say do you have anything to add when it's uh when
02:01:05.460it's family members like that yikes um you know you just have to
02:01:16.740i think you just have to keep a healthy distance from all that stuff you know it sort of reminds me
02:01:28.840of um when my boys were really young and i mean like infant age and my mother-in-law
02:01:39.200my ex-wife's mother now you know we'd come over there and she's you must just hate the way that
02:01:45.160raised you because it was so different and you just say no i'm just you know we i we're i'm not
02:01:51.720it's not about you this is about me this is about me and my kids and i've looked at the
02:01:59.160civilization that is brought about by those people and i and i and i'm going to do something
02:02:06.600different i mean you just can't make it about being reflexively opposed to them you just say i
02:02:13.480I look over here and I see something that I think is better.
02:02:18.540You just have to make it not about them, which they will.
02:02:23.040They will make it all about them because they're going to be hurt by the fact
02:02:30.660that you've made a different decision, but you just can't let them try to tag you
02:02:38.960with that sympathy that you can't make it about that.
02:02:42.620It's not about them. It's about you and the decisions that you've made.
02:02:50.000I think all of that, that Alan said, the respectful, you know, keeping a distance and.
02:03:02.920It's very hard and I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea that we're suggesting it's not.
02:03:09.220Um, I am dealing with a similar kind of thing. I wouldn't say quite that far, but my dad and my stepmom are pretty far left. My stepmom's pretty far left and my dad pretends he's not, but he's drifted pretty far left.
02:03:28.000And it's hard to find commonality to talk about or to build relationship off of.
02:03:43.080What I think is really important is that you guard your children against undue influence from their grandparents along those lines.
02:03:55.100but judiciously to where you will allow them to have as much of a relationship with the ground
02:04:02.900um but also figuring out if there is any where your points of commonality are
02:04:14.380and even if they're superficial for the sake of maintaining familial um loyalties and you know
02:04:53.040We don't have a lot of rodents down here.0.96
02:04:55.100Anyways, good talking to you. Love you, Dad. Talk to you later. It's something and it counts. It's not the best answer, but it's what we got, and I do think it's better than nothing if we can.
02:05:09.620And I think demonstrating that you care about family, even and perhaps especially when it's difficult, role models something important to your kids.
02:05:36.780All right. What are your thoughts on living with parents as an adult? I recently moved in with some friends, but I'm having second thoughts to move in with my girlfriend's family to help their family pay bills. Alan, I think you might have an interesting perspective.
02:05:55.480Yes, as my third, my youngest son lingers on the property, you know, but first of all, I'll say that it is, you know, that it was absolutely the case.
02:06:15.020And one of the things that I've read about, even into the medieval era, that, you know, that the kids would live with their parents until well into adulthood for exactly that reason, because they wanted to be established and be able to keep their home and not, you know, not leave too soon.
02:06:43.800I think the, I think this modern idea of, you know, getting out when you're 18, you know, you know, making a place for yourself is, you know, although admirable, if you're able to do it and can do it comfortably, I, you know, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it.
02:06:59.240um but i think it is very much a modern phenomenon um if you look like one of the things that i used
02:07:08.680to marvel at if you go down in some of these old southern towns and probably in the north too and
02:07:14.920i don't imagine it's uniquely a southern phenomenon sorry for using that word twice in the same
02:07:21.060sentence um but the where you you know you see these giant houses you know four five six thousand
02:07:28.560square feet but then like what i learned more about those homes later there would be three
02:07:35.560generations of people living in there you know the grandparents were you know where the bunch
02:07:41.140maybe who may have maybe had the house built to begin with and their kids were still there and
02:07:45.460their kids were there so there is absolutely no we're not going to clip a corner out of your man
02:07:53.640card for um doing the right thing to go and help your girlfriend's parents keep a roof over their
02:08:01.040head there's a lot of nobility in that um you know as long as you're if you're working doing
02:08:07.040your part and she's cleaning and cooking and you're uh working and paying part of the bills
02:08:12.840You know, have a couple of kids, you've got grandparents right there to watch them.
02:08:21.080So, Alan, do you remember that Ebenhue fella that ran on, the rent is too damn high, a number of years ago?
02:08:36.040There was a white haired Negro that was, I believe, running for president. And his whole single issue campaign, I think, was just to draw attention to it. The rent is too damn high. The rent is, in fact, too damn high.
02:08:51.540I think one of the things that details matter, if you are diluting yourself to, and this is not, okay, so first, to the person asking the question, no, you helping your girlfriend's family out through whatever they're dealing with, sounds like a real noble thing to do.
02:09:18.520Be very careful that you don't allow that to build a resentment in you, especially if and when you start your own family with this woman.
02:09:34.160It's very important that you be the father of your family and not have the in-laws dictate to you how you raise your kid.
02:09:46.340and i see the previous question yeah that's that's a thing so
02:09:53.720some of the traditional multiple families living on the same property i think in a roman villa
02:10:01.180example sure but you have your own house and your own acreage in your own space and you live on this
02:10:07.620vast property that there's a lot of ways it can work there's a lot of other ways where
02:10:15.320people are living on top of one another and the proximity ends up breeding a certain amount of
02:10:21.800contempt and resentment. And I would hate to see that happen. There's all kinds of situations
02:10:29.320and each of us as noble Aryan men and women have the responsibility to make the best decisions we
02:10:39.160can in given circumstances. Nothing is perfect, and it's not always a binary, you know, good
02:10:45.860decision versus bad decision. There's a lot of different factors to consider. And I think that
02:10:55.960we also need to be honest. There are some people that pretend they're helping out their family by
02:11:04.020living at home to cloud the reality of no they just never moved out of mom's basement don't be
02:11:11.140that guy but there's other people you're genuinely helping sometimes you're helping um family or or
02:11:18.880in-laws that are struggling for a variety of reasons sometimes there's there's medical issues
02:11:26.120sometimes there's a lot of stuff going on and helping out helping your family is a good thing
02:11:32.820Helping the woman that you love's family is a good thing.
02:11:38.460Family being close together and spending time under one roof and together is a good thing,
02:11:45.660as long as you can maintain that in a way that's healthy for everybody.
02:11:49.820So I don't think there's a simple answer to it.
02:11:52.660But there's a difference between feeling resentful and trapped by something
02:12:00.620and genuinely making a choice to pursue something.
02:12:05.220And I think that that's the really important factor.
02:12:12.900Okay, so take that as the answer, and this is kind of an addendum to that.
