00:17:12.100It's just like sloponomics. Are we getting into the...
00:17:14.400Yeah, it is. It is sloponomics because I'm like, there's just some slop that we like.
00:17:18.700How do we define... You know what? I want to... Can we just drill on this for a second?
00:17:22.240What is slop actually? Because the sausages is such a, honestly, a really interesting example.
00:17:26.140Because on the one hand, chicken franks, right?
00:17:28.680You've got mechanically separated waste bits from the floor in a cellulose wrapper that's eaten by people who are going to die next week of heart failure anyways.
00:17:38.400And then you have the history of sausage as a cultural food way and a way of preserving meat for the winter throughout Europe for thousands of years.
00:17:48.660Well, that's the thing, because to me, a sausage, even at its peak, it's usually pork.
00:17:54.500And the reason you do pork is because it maintains moisture and it's very fatty.
01:33:22.440It's looking at the proselytization of the Catholic Church all throughout Europe.
01:33:26.920And we discussed this last episode, too, by saying, why did Christianity take root in certain European countries more than in Japan, in India, with the Jews?
01:50:20.180From a universal salvation religion to a Germanic and eventually European folk religion.
01:50:27.280So the transition from Christianity to a European folk religion is deeply interesting to me because I do think that is true.0.99
01:50:37.360I think a lot of people intuit that, but they don't say that outright because some people will say, well, it's a fucking desert religion.0.99
01:50:49.080it's like well that's not what it is if it was just that it wouldn't have taken off exactly
01:50:54.740the ethnic character of the europeans seems to be a huge part of it while maintaining and this is
01:51:03.280important to say while maintaining the core tenets of christianity and you know what i think like the
01:51:09.780essential skeletal structure of that he goes on here it says germanic influence was largely
01:51:16.980responsible according to this guy named youngman for an increased emphasis upon the dramatic and
01:51:23.220allegorical representation of events from the life of christ in the mass and in scripture
01:51:28.500as well as the weekly liturgical cycle and the simultaneous decline of soteriological
01:51:33.620eschatological emphasis in the liturgy and an artistic expression also related to germanization
01:51:39.780was the emergence of christmas festival cycles as a rival to the easter cycle interesting and
01:51:46.340And an increased stratification of clergy and laity represented by the growing distance between the altar and the faithful, as well as the introduction of a communion rail boundary at which the communions knelt.
01:51:59.920So it's little things like that. It's like the structure of the church, the distance or the stratification of the elites within the structure, which would have not mirrored, but been influenced by the stratification of a tribal network as well.
01:52:13.780everything is less free flowing it is more hierarchical which was not a feature of
01:52:21.560christianity going back to the beginning not really um he says a common feature among the
01:52:28.440germanic peoples is the development of a concept of collective security this was closely related
01:52:34.360to two germanic institutions family and king group on one hand and the personal lordship on
01:52:40.940the other collective security may be considered the antithesis to enemy religious move uh the
01:52:47.120religious movement which had flourished in the enemy urban quarters of a declining society
01:52:51.580was not likely to meet with immediate success in a rural emerging society with a high level
01:52:57.640of collective security unless that religious movement was represented in a manner which was
01:53:02.000compatible with the worldview of a latter society so again returning the idea that you're not
01:53:07.860approaching Christianity from a position of weakness. You're already in a position of
01:53:12.900strength. You have your security guaranteed through your tribe and kin network. So what
01:53:17.560is this thing offering? What is in it for me? Really, what do I benefit from changing
01:53:24.320the way I look at the world? So in these instances, I think it's not even manipulative.
01:53:32.360In some instances, you could be moving into an area of desperate people, but that's not
01:53:37.280the case here and that's what makes it so interesting it continues on says it appears
01:53:42.220that the primary sacral locus of most folk religions including indo-european religions
01:53:48.520is the folk community itself the sacrality of the community is expressed in ritual ceremonies that
01:53:54.840celebrate its relationship with its exclusive gods and promoting a strong sense of in-group
01:54:00.200identification and loyalty historically folk religions have usually been succeeded by universal
01:54:05.920religions and i think that's the the natural transition i'd like to focus on most of all
01:54:11.160which is that it's not that these peoples let's use the germanic people as an example it's not
01:54:17.600that they even really had to sacrifice much they weren't stamped out they weren't manipulated
01:54:21.860they weren't brainwashed really it seems that they of their own free will and their own let's call
01:54:29.740it enlightenment accepted this as long as certain concessions were made but they did accept the new
01:54:35.520worldview they did accept the word of god eventually and so it's not oppressive in that sense
01:54:43.600and insofar as as that character remained and fed back into the church and created that true unity
01:54:49.440he kind of goes into what we mean by world rejection here and i think this is important
01:54:54.000especially after we had wrapped this up soon he says world rejection uh as used herein is
01:55:00.240brought in to include not only an extremely negative evaluation of man and society and the
01:55:06.200exaltation of the another realm of reality as true and infinitely valuable but also attitudes of
01:55:13.720general indifference or opposition towards the socio-biological principle of group survival
01:55:20.540through in-group altruism in china resistance to the world rejecting elements of buddhism was
01:55:27.320centered in the world accepting socially reinforcing confucian notions of ancestor and
01:55:33.080emperor worship while in japan adherence to the predominantly folk-centered shinto worldview
01:55:39.480functions similarly briefly stated it's suggested here that the prolonged existence
01:55:44.520of these anomalous social conditions in a folk religious society predisposes that society
01:55:50.360that particular society to religious movements with prominent world rejecting tendencies
01:55:55.560i like those examples there of here's why buddhism struggled against confucianism and
01:56:02.640it's easy to understand why world accepting and biology accepting versus world rejecting
01:56:10.380and a monastic focus on the year after as a westerner they blend together but if you're
01:56:17.340on the ground they're almost polar opposites yeah yeah um it kind of continues on here and
01:56:24.460this is what we discussed when we talked about rodney stark and the spread of christianity to
01:56:29.980the elites because that was a important function of its success not just constantine but the
01:56:35.820aristocracy he said the primary appeal the primary appeal of a universal religion to a ruling elite
01:56:43.020may be its potential as a force for enhanced social cohesion although further research in the
01:56:49.260area of sociopolitical and religious interaction is necessary it appears that this utilitarian
01:56:55.180view contributed towards the popular the popularity of zoroastrianism throughout the persian empire
01:57:01.900by king cyrus in alexander the great's advocacy of hellenistic ecumenism and the expansion of the
01:57:09.340heniyaya buddhism during the reign of indian emperor ahsoka in the expansion of buddhism
01:57:16.460throughout china during the tang dynasty as well when the social order is disrupted by rivalry
01:57:22.540political change or military conquest attempts to provide religious rationalization for these
01:57:27.820developments may provoke new modes of religious thinking think back to cochran as we discussed
01:57:33.100there in certain instances the breakdown of internal order led to messianic expectations
01:57:39.660of the coming savior king sound familiar sound like some people you know sound like some situations
01:57:48.060you might have found yourselves in waiting for the great philosopher king to come and unite us
01:57:52.980are do you detect any messianic yearnings among those people that we know
01:57:59.300i like how he gives more of a overview of the germanic peoples and what they were dealing with
01:58:09.920at the time which might have inspired the acceptance of this he says since the early
01:58:14.660germans could not rely on the protection and assistance of a bureaucratic empire when they
01:58:19.240were threatened with attack or famine it was incumbent upon each man and woman of the community
01:58:23.940to adhere to the fundamental sociobiological principle of group survival
01:58:28.640embodied in the bonds of familial and communal solidarity.
01:58:32.820One's status in society depended upon how closely one adhered to this fundamental principle.
01:58:38.620Those who behaved honorably, thereby contributing to the advancement of the community,
01:58:45.860Instead of directly confronting this opposing value system
01:58:48.180and attempting to radically transform it,
01:58:50.360The missionaries apparently sought to redefine the Germanic virtues of strength, courage, and loyalty in such a manner that will reduce their incompatibility with Christian values, while at the same time enculturating Christian values as far as possible to accommodate the Germanic ethnos and worldview.
02:04:47.660And you can only do that if you adopt a worldview that is not monistic, which is not just world rejecting.
02:04:55.660And again, just to circle back to that, that really the central point here is that you go from the world rejecting nature of this mystery called religion into something that is world accepting, that is, if not explicitly pagan, but pagan in spirit or communal in spirit, which makes it not just an atomized individualistic religion.
02:05:21.100Anyway, I know I really like this book.
02:08:44.420it's like it's a very stark like this is who we are we are british french irish
02:08:52.720in north america like we we are the british isles and the french building this new society
02:09:01.660in this harsh wilderness you know i agree completely and um for the longest time the
02:09:08.740red ensign movement in canada i mean i was familiar with that years and years ago and
02:09:13.440had a bit of a resurgence lately the reason i wasn't huge on it many many years ago for people
02:09:20.880who don't know look up the canadian red ensign that was the traditional flag of canada before
02:09:27.600we got a new one a new corporatized flag much much later but for the longest time it was the
02:09:33.200red ensign and to that point if you see this flag flying now you can sort of divine the politics of
02:09:41.520of whoever's flying it and i've seen more of them over the past few years um more people kind of
02:09:47.060awakening to our points of view anyway point being that i always took issue with the flag a little
02:09:52.080bit just because if you look at it there's the canadian shield and that's what a lot of people
02:09:57.200when they talk about the rents and they talk about that but the flag itself
02:10:00.960has a great big union jack on the far upper left hand corner and i always said you know they said
02:10:07.780should bring the red ensign back bring that flag back they said you know what if we're trying to
02:10:13.060here's what the people don't want to hear this but there is an argument to be made for the newer leaf0.96
02:10:21.140flag and that there's actually two good things to say they say oh they put a fucking leaf on the0.76
02:10:26.740flag where that come from well actually there's leaves on the red ensign too that's why they chose0.70
02:10:32.100leave but also they had to say look we want a flag that actually unites canada that doesn't have
02:10:39.620the dominant anglo influence because if you're in canada the anglophones or the francophones that
02:10:46.020would be the english and the french they've been at odds since its inception and you're never going
02:10:50.820to have one subsume the other the canadian identity is going to be that permanent bifurcation anyway
02:10:56.900point being that what i like about the she just the shield and you can call that the ensign too
02:11:02.340it has it has all of the cultures and identities present encapsulated in that shield and i said
02:11:07.780well that there that is what people find evocative that's what people find striking i think and
02:11:13.220that's why that's becoming so popular again and then there's the three leaves in there
02:11:18.820showing the unity of these cultures and so if if you wanted to get kind of crazy
02:11:24.900and you could you could try and incorporate aboriginal culture into that if you wanted to
02:11:32.400create a broader nationalist identitarian movement and there are talks of that in various sectors of
02:11:40.220canada but as it stands right now i think that chill is probably the closest thing we've got
02:11:44.600do you think there could ever be like a alberta kebecois nationalist uh area access in canada
02:11:52.940where you can rectify quebec yeah well quebec would be the obvious choice because they already
02:12:00.740do have a very strong nationalist bent to them um alberta could now what alberta represents to me
02:12:09.120is more of an economic center rather than a coherent identity which isn't to say that they
02:12:14.160couldn't have one they could not have some kind of and there isn't like an albertan culture there's
02:12:19.280an albertan type of guy but you know to me the person in calgary is not terribly different than
02:12:25.360the person in toronto i think there's there's something about the alberta culture but it looks
02:12:31.020a lot like texas it looks it's a lot of cowboy hats it's a lot of oh let's do the same thing
02:12:37.540as them so uh it doesn't seem as strikingly profound as what you would find in quebec but
02:12:43.700could um but what makes them attractive to an entity like the u.s would be the oil sands and
02:12:51.560then what they represent economically to the rest of the country so if i were america if i were
02:12:56.180trump and i seriously wanted to annex canada which he doesn't but if he did i wouldn't go
02:13:01.720after the whole country i would go after one province i would go after alberta do you think
02:13:06.620like under uh canada becomes catholic do you think that there could be a uh you know melding
02:13:13.580of like the french portion in the um and like the cowboy nature of the wild west nature of alberta
02:13:21.400uh if it was united under one uh like the faith that's a good question um i suppose like if we
02:13:30.580snapped our fingers and that were to happen i'm sure it could um i'll however that
02:13:36.220quebec is the catholicism but it is also the french identity which is balanced with the
02:13:43.880catholicism and subsumed within that but you know i tend to think that quebec is such a culturally
02:13:51.680and historically distinct area that i don't you'd have to snap your fingers and have a lot of other
02:13:57.660things fall into place to have that sort of horizontality in canada um maybe if alberta
02:14:04.580became french too right but um i'm not i think it would make things easier if there was one
02:14:11.260uniting religion like that but you know i think it would be need to be a few other things as well
02:14:18.300but that's a that's a very speculative flight of fancy i'm going on there too sure sure um
02:14:25.240so i guess we can start off with like how how did you come to the faith or how
02:14:30.360you know your experiences converting into it post you know this post-covid world yeah well i would
02:14:38.020have converted i believe pre-covid but not that far before covid because you know i would have
02:14:46.360gotten converted a few couple years before we were married my wife and then covet happened right after
02:14:53.040the wedding too so it was in and around there um but that's sort of the same time frame i suppose
02:15:00.480um i don't know what led me into it was a very slow period of inquiry and also exposure to it
02:15:08.480through because my wife was born catholic and uh i just got an exposure to it that way because she
02:15:14.880would go to church and i would go to i just got to know it and then we were talking about this before
02:15:21.520the show that new converts have a different approach to this than people who are raising it
02:15:27.720so for better or worse we have sort of rationalistic priors you know if you because i was
02:15:34.500raised i suppose it's better to set up this way i was raised not even atheistic but more agnostic
02:15:40.420i just wasn't told anything about religion i learned about it through the simpsons i didn't
02:15:45.960know what church was and at one point I went to a friend of mine who I think he he would have been
02:15:52.060a Baptist I think or some a Protestant I think I went to one of the churches I just didn't know
02:15:57.020what it was it was like this odd place I didn't so I had no context and that's an interesting
02:16:04.660albeit anecdotal case study which is a lot of people kids are raised atheistically like their
02:16:10.560parents will tell them that there's no god or this but if you're just raised them with nothing and
02:16:15.400no information whatsoever what happens and what happens is they're very confused and startled by
02:16:22.040this stuff when they just encounter it um so i wasn't raised in any way to dislike it but it had
02:16:28.520to be i had to sort of apprehend these ideas myself and then i came to it later in life but
02:16:33.800you come to it with a more rationalistic outlook so you know the conversion process for those who
02:16:39.960who don't know you know you have to meet with your priest you need to get to get to know the church0.99
02:16:46.160and you know it's like joining a gang it's like joining the fucking hell's angels need to hang0.89
02:16:51.180around and it's they want to get to know you and then you should not interview but they want to0.97
02:16:56.840know that you're serious you know um you know there's this interesting movie i wouldn't call
02:17:02.220it a great film but it's interesting called first reformed it was one of paul schrader's
02:17:07.560uh later movies it's got ethan hawk it's sort of like uh like a christian taxi driver
02:17:14.760um i i might recommend you watch it but it's a priest and there's terrorism involved in that and
02:17:23.380he's he's having a crisis of faith as a priest and um one of the issues that he's dealing with
02:17:29.820is all these young people who are attracted to the religion but it's very clear they're looking
02:17:34.980for an army to join they're looking to join for political reasons and i could only imagine that
02:17:40.560eastern orthodoxy has to deal with the exact same thing i think catholics have to deal with it
02:17:45.560more so than lutherans because there's so many people want to join the church because they like0.89
02:17:49.840fucking warhammer 40k or whatever it is you know they like the aesthetics they like
02:17:54.920the idea of joining some kind of order but they're joining for the wrong reasons and then the reasons0.97
02:18:01.340that caused them to join will have them leaving it within a year or two and that's sort of a trend
02:18:06.260you see where people go from militant atheist to militant catholic and then to militant
02:18:12.200fucking eastern orthodoxy there's like a track they go on and then they end up in0.96
02:18:17.200islam sometimes i guess you know but they just end up because they don't want it for0.99
02:18:22.060the real reasons um which would be very very inward serious uh spiritual inquiry which is
02:18:30.080not for someone like myself and I think a lot of others that doesn't come naturally so but I had to
02:18:35.740approach it from more of a rationalist point of view I had a lot of questions and you need to
02:18:39.440recontextualize a lot of stuff and even after I converted and this is reflected on the show
02:18:44.780especially recently you know I liked reading books about it you know you should you know one of the
02:18:50.320good things about being a Catholic is you don't need to read the Bible honk honk but uh the idea
02:18:55.920is that you you want to read thomas aquinas you want to read eastern orthodoxy writers you want
02:19:02.020to read lutheran writers and protestant writers and get a sense of the difference between them
02:19:07.160and i don't know like when i uh i spoke to e michael jones not long ago um well not long ago
02:19:15.020it was like two years ago but i covered his book logos rising and some people find him a pretty
02:19:21.980controversial figure they have you know their opinions on what he thinks about race and this
02:19:26.000or that but i thought his writings on the history of logos and the word of god and the history of
02:19:34.700the catholic church i thought that was very illuminating for someone like me you need stuff
02:19:38.440like that and for for many catholics maybe they don't maybe they're raising it and they are at
02:19:43.040peace with everything but for me it's sort of like a never-ending inquiry i suppose even even
02:19:50.000as i'm in it um but the result of that is that i'm the one dragging my wife to church now so
02:19:59.360you god what is it go ahead well one of the things that's that i patrick and i are both
02:20:06.560cradle catholics who eventually kind of traded i think is is how we ended up where we ended up but
02:20:13.440But you can't engage in a culture war, and by default, you're just engaged in a culture war, because the elites in our countries, whether that's, you know, whatever you want to say, like we put echoes around it, do whatever you want to say, like our countries are being invaded, you know, millions, billions of dollars of our tax money is being spent on, like literally making your kids, making the frogs gay, and you can't engage in any kind of cultural conflict without a cultist.
02:20:43.440Right. You have to at least understand the battlefield you're fighting on, if only just to protect your own children.
02:20:55.300Right. And it's really important that young men who I, you know, I I'm a 40K fan, too.
02:21:04.820right like um if you're just in it for the aesthetics um there has to be something else
02:21:13.940there and uh the the cool aesthetics is a result of the culture of the cult of the religious
02:21:24.580outlook and that whole idea of secularism was like a sort of compromise after something like
02:21:32.32030 years war which was horrible and like uh you know basically everyone who believes the nicene
02:21:38.360creed can basically get along and we just won't choose an official religion amongst ourselves
02:21:42.620is a temporary band-aid sort of solution over the fact that there's no such thing as a secular
02:21:52.120society right and the problem now is we're dealing with hindu pagans and like you know
02:22:05.040santeria cubans and buddhists and catholics and methodists and like all of this stuff
02:22:13.960and then you have to say well uh or especially in in uh europe right islam but in the united
02:22:21.660states right you know i live in the pacific earth west right there's so microsoft ever since that
02:22:27.560of that one indian has taken over ceo basically just flooded the whole i5 corridor with
02:22:35.420you know pajeet and it doesn't matter like wherever i go i go into town and thank you
02:22:45.720very much that it's insane and uh yeah i i agree completely um and they can have the duali festival
02:22:57.620and i'm like well what about my festival like like you know a part of me is um i don't like
02:23:05.220personally to engage in a lot of interfaith debates and despite that they happen all the time
02:23:12.880in our community because we have for blood salad we have a fair mix of different uh faiths we had
02:23:19.440quite a few pagans quite a few atheists but then there's quite a few prostitutes and then catholics
02:23:24.680and then maybe catholics are even the fewest um but these debates and these conflicts are so easy
02:23:30.820to kick off even when they're they're good natured but uh i just don't like even wading
02:23:35.060into those waters because you get these debates and these knife fights that go on for three days
02:23:40.800but um i thought it occurred as i was finishing this book is actually recommended by one of my
02:23:49.240pagan friends uh or my uh he wouldn't call him something was it a hellenist a hellenist friend
02:23:54.580of mine at fortisax or maybe he's not he might take that i i think with those types of guys if
02:23:59.600i say he's a hell and some people hate that so i'm just gonna say pagan because i don't want to
02:24:02.700fandom but it's called the uh germanization of medieval christianity great book yeah i really
02:24:10.800like that what it was interesting there's one part we won't go into the whole thing i'm sure
02:24:14.440you probably talked about it at various points but there's an argument made that um the feedback
02:24:21.540of the germanic peoples back into what was the catholic church was one of a few instances of
02:24:29.480that gave the Catholic Church a distinct European-ness.
02:24:33.860And that's something you would say to people who are like,
02:24:44.940And we can show exactly how that happened
02:24:47.300and how these folkways were integrated
02:24:49.940without actually damaging the core faith.
02:24:53.600And so on top of that, you build from that into Lutheranism, Protestantism, Anglicanism, from that church into the larger sphere of European Christianity.
02:25:09.060And I think it needs, because there's Christianity that's practiced elsewhere, but actually not that many places, because the book is very careful to show that, you know, they tried this in Japan, it didn't take.
02:25:20.860They tried it with the Jews, didn't take.
02:25:23.680You know, there's been a lot of attempts.
02:25:26.000It seems to be kind of working in Africa, but not really in China.
02:25:32.580And I think there's a strong case we made that this entire Western Christian project has an integrated European focusness or vocishness, if that's what some people like to view it as.
02:25:44.740And then that is the bedrock that you can build some kind of unity between the Protestants and the Catholics.
02:25:53.280you know we don't necessarily need to even snap our fingers because i say that because there's
02:25:57.800another book that i we'd covered on the show because maybe my non-catholic friends are ripping
02:26:03.220their hair up because i'm not mentioning it's called tri-faith america by i want to see andrew
02:26:08.740schultz i don't think it is it's some kind of schultz andrew schultz is a terrible comedian
02:26:13.820but uh it's about the history of protestant america in i guess the early 20th century
02:26:22.080i mean late night yeah early 20th century and the migration waves of not only i think it's like the
02:26:30.120second migration wave of jews there's a very specific type of jew and then catholics catholics
02:26:36.780came in and they actually the subtitle of the book was something to the tune of how uh jews and
02:26:43.320catholics held america to its protestant promise which is to say that there was more or less a
02:26:50.460Protestant hegemony in America that was threatened by these two migrant groups who were holding it
02:26:55.980up to its promise of tolerance because it's easy to be tolerant when everyone's a white Anglo-Saxon
02:27:02.720Protestant but then you have these out groups saying well that means you must be tolerant to
02:27:06.860me and they didn't have an answer for that and said okay okay sure and then they started all
02:27:12.140these you know interfaith councils and I won't go into the whole history of it but there's a
02:27:17.160A case to be made that it was these two outside groups that sort of carved out their own spaces within America, built their own institutions, and by degrees whittled away the Protestant power in America.
02:27:32.180So there is a narrative that the Catholic was a foreign invasion.
02:27:40.200So I'm always trying to look at different ways to say, well, is there a way to frame this in a larger European context?
02:27:47.620So it's not even necessarily we're not we don't one doesn't necessarily need to win.
02:27:53.000There's more unity there than between, as you had said, Hindu paganism or whatever good luck nonsense the Chinese are doing, whatever it might be.
03:05:37.500Everybody else on that list is Canadian.
03:05:41.460Gordie Howe, Ron Francis, Marcel Dion, Steve Yashman, Mario Lemieux, Sid Crosby, Joe Sackick, Phil Esposito, Ray Baruch, Joe Thornton, Mark Ritchie, right?
03:05:53.980and most people aren't interested in thinking about culture a lot they just want to live their
03:06:05.080culture and to them you know and i i'm slightly jealous that the uh the show title honky night
03:06:12.680in canada that's just brilliant for anybody who's ever watched coach sherry uh
03:06:18.420the the idea that you need to turn a critical eye towards something as foundational as the red
03:06:31.200ensign or hockey or you know pick your thing right in the united states uh the the stars and stripes
03:06:41.460or the stars and bars right like most people aren't equipped to do that temperamentally
03:06:47.000they're not equipped to to be like well i love this thing but also i'm going to be really critical
03:06:53.300of it that's true and it's a very difficult thing to do right because i want to be the guy that like
03:07:03.880you know just just hears the star-spangled banner and like gets like the manly tear in my eye and
03:07:09.240holds my hand over my heart but i also have this like seething hatred of what the united states
03:07:13.680has become because you know usa stands for usury sodomy and abortion right like like that's what
03:07:19.960that that's you know for practical purposes that's what we do right like like usury via our central
03:07:26.320bank and and we're like an economic forum and and you know the uh world bank right like
03:07:33.980we have this you know dollar dominance and we use it to make sure like look you have to make1.00
03:07:44.160sure that people could do butt sex and butt squat we're going to spread condoms and pay for1.00
03:07:48.140abortions and like like my roads look like the dark side of the moon and you're you're killing0.99
03:07:54.200babies in vietnam with my money like what that's insane like why that's what i loved about that
03:08:06.300recent news despite what you might think or anyone might think about elon musk and the doge thing
03:08:11.800and but revealing where so much taxpayer money was specifically going uh it really did show that
03:08:19.900what a lot of people had intuited for many years like none of this can be organic none of this has
03:08:24.140just a emergent cultural revolution that the younger generation is just super gay no it's like
03:08:30.040hundreds of billions of dollars were directed at trying to normalize this stuff not only
03:08:35.260in america but abroad through soft propagandistic power in every all throughout africa the middle
03:08:41.980east trans theater whatever it might be think of a kooky thing and your tax dollars were going
03:08:49.720to like directly promote it to your children and the children of others around the world i think
03:08:54.920i've talked about this but i guarantee you you're an ad guy like what is with like every ad has a
03:09:00.640hot redhead or a hot blonde with a black dude i think it's probably even worse in the uk almost
03:09:06.980everything i see coming out of because also looking at this way it tilts more towards a state sponsored
03:09:13.620ads too like if you look at the bbc it seems that their shows they push a very specific type
03:09:19.400of interracial pairing that we all know but then even the private companies maybe it's less but
03:09:25.140then you know oh this is an official government mandate which means that they would prefer
03:09:30.240ads that also reflect this um there's probably a lot of reasons for that because everyone knows
03:09:36.360when they talk about diversity it just means more black and a lot of conservatives get hung up on
03:09:41.820it's like well if it was real diversity you would have more asians and indians but what you really
03:09:46.180want to say is i don't want none of that i think i don't like that it's just more black people i
03:09:51.000also don't want more uh asians or anything right but uh you know the reason that is maybe that goes
03:10:01.080away maybe that's on its way out it'll take maybe a couple more years um i don't know because
03:10:08.960everyone talked about the super bowl ads if you looked at the super bowl ads in trump's america
03:10:13.360they were still multiracial or even pro-black however all those ads would have been recorded
03:10:21.080and shot and planned like nine months ago so maybe there is some cultural reverberating factors that
03:10:27.200will kind of usher some of that out and maybe that aspect of wokeness is going away only because
03:10:34.940it's just gay and no one likes it um but you are correct in saying the fact that it is mostly
03:10:43.860black male plus white female means that they're prioritizing a black male narrative which is0.92
03:10:52.900you know separate than the black female narrative like there's almost two anti-white narratives
03:10:58.800going on at the same time because the black female one is almost more theory based and the0.71
03:11:03.620black male one is just purely destructive and it's purely like violent and humiliating um whereas0.98
03:11:10.220like if you like the people the types who are embracing marxist theory are the black women so0.99
03:11:15.260it's a different thing um so the why would be probably anything you could imagine which is
03:11:21.220just like they're trying to deface and defile what they think is a white male thing they're
03:11:26.780trying to enrage a demographic that they don't they either don't think is important or they
03:11:31.780don't want to be important anymore so there's an economic case we made that well you could
03:11:37.700show that they need you um this is what happened with bud light you know some people think we're
03:11:43.840past that but i'm like no return to that bully bud light mash their face into the mud and make0.92
03:11:50.820them feel stupid for what they did it's not going to win every battle but it's one that you did win0.97
03:11:56.100win it's how you win this is this is the um you can just do things right but like i'm i'm not0.86
03:12:04.180100 sold on trump because i want results i want i want more results there's been a lot of great
03:12:13.020talk i i want the u.s out of germany like i want nato gone um because nato right now is like
03:12:20.340city of london bureaucrats and brussels bureaucrats being like you know your kids0.55
03:12:24.180need to get drafted and die so that we can have to continue to have our cushy jobs and the u.s
03:12:30.620government is on the hook for our military while we did while we spend money on a welfare state1.00
03:12:34.680and like have these muslims invade and you can't visit like notre dame cathedral because muslims0.96
03:12:40.680burn it down as a as catholic but and you've got to pay for it but also like just this these all0.97
03:12:49.160these contradictions right and uh you know trump to the extent that he exposes this stuff and
03:12:55.680causes these problems and i i will be the first to admit that um he's he's done a lot of good
03:13:02.740things in terms of talking i am personally waiting to see until he actually implements things before
03:13:08.520i you know just go you know all in but if he does what he says he's you know if he implements the
03:13:14.900stuff he's said in the last month he will be the greatest president in the history of the united
03:13:17.900states period yeah and also i'm no trump fan boy and we've been clear on that on the show that when
03:13:26.060he does something that you like you should cheer when he does something you don't like
03:13:30.340get up in his grill do what you've been doing which is everything within your power and sometimes
03:13:37.120that's just stirring up stuff online but that does move the needle because if it doesn't then why do0.99
03:13:43.120anything if it doesn't then delete your fucking account you see what i'm saying but um i don't0.98
03:13:49.620i'm not trust the plan guy and there's a lot of people who they like what trump's doing so they're1.00
03:13:54.040saying okay trust the plan lem do what he does like no you gain nothing from trusting the plan
03:13:59.160you i can guarantee you that you'll you won't get what you want if you shut up
03:14:03.520if you voice your opinion i'm not trying to be a populist here but if you get angry online you
03:14:10.560maybe have a 1% chance but it's better than nothing which is all you get when you shut up
03:14:15.320so hold him to account you should you should know what you want you should like it when you get
03:14:21.680closer to that and I'm not of the mind that we benefit by further persecution and I know that's
03:14:28.760a divisive topic on this side that anytime you know we I'll give you the example and I'm not
03:14:36.840trying to throw anyone under the bus but i remember there was some controversy with devon stack from
03:14:42.920black build who i'm a great fan of and as are many of our listeners um he had said that it was bad
03:14:49.020that the january 6 prisoners were being released because that served to radicalize us uh our side
03:14:57.840and i had said everyone said oh he's too black pilled and i said well if there's one guy who's
03:15:04.260allowed to be black billed would it not be the guy named black bill like i if donald trump elected
03:15:11.300himself king i could tune into king pilled and expect him to have some positive thoughts about
03:15:17.980that you know i mean so i'm like yeah if there's one guy's allowed to be black billed sure however
03:15:21.440i disagreed insofar as i don't think we benefit from that if that were the case and we would
03:15:27.020benefit from that chilling effect that unite the right cause did any of us benefit from that did
03:15:32.740Do any of us benefit from James Fields being in prison?
03:16:11.380Not only, like, if we wanted to really state that REB's tattoo, United Rights should have been like, you know, should have been the convicting thing that conservatives have been like, look, man, if only the neon Nazis are the ones smart enough to understand that.
03:16:27.680and you know some conservatives did understand this um Canadian notable Canadian columnist and
03:16:34.100um you know former guest host for Rush Limbaugh pointed this out this is like
03:16:38.960no you're you're ceding the ground and once you cede once you cede the principle you've ceded the
03:16:45.000whole argument um I think I think pickup artists are generally kind of degenerate I'm not a fan
03:16:50.140because I have kids but one of the things that they said years ago is completely true and that's
03:16:55.280by the frame by the farm and if you if you buy into the leftist frame of the argument
03:17:02.080then you've seated 90 of it and you're just debating over whether like you know
03:17:09.680well i don't think that plugs should be mandatory to go to public school like you shouldn't have to
03:17:15.600wear one right what was that meme you probably know what it is but it was like conservatives
03:17:23.360from the year 2037 and it was like you know back in the day we had base trannies we had the real
03:17:30.720trannies i don't like these new ones you know i mean like they just and i guess i don't want to
03:17:36.080even for this show necessarily make it all about race but you see this with the multi-polarity
03:17:41.620advocates sometimes where they get you to agree that whiteness is inherently evil and then they'll
03:17:48.940go to europeans a lot of the time and try and convince and make them and make oh we're not white0.97
03:17:53.840i'm not white i'm italian i'm not white i'm irish i hate white people too so you recruit europeans
03:18:00.600into hating whiteness however everyone around the world from africans to middle easterners to south0.83
03:18:07.980americans they know that white just means european so you're not really fooling anyone
03:18:13.440where it really matters you're not in ensuring your own survival and you can go and i always
03:18:18.220use this example you know go to a bar in nigeria and you've got an irishman a frenchman
03:18:25.720and a anglo you're the three white guys and you could debate all day about the ethnography and
03:18:34.140the history between them they don't the world doesn't care china doesn't care they have one
03:18:39.460word for you and it's like the white guy so but they try and get you to enter their frame by
03:18:45.240getting white people to accept that whiteness is evil well you know it's been a theme of the show
03:18:49.900that uh you know god is white supremacist if being on time and uh having the agency to do prayers0.96
03:24:34.480As I've gotten older, I actually just agree with them.1.00
03:24:37.220yeah it is white people shit you're right it's just our thing it's our weird thing we like to do1.00
03:24:41.620you don't get it none of you will ever get it but we don't dick what you think doesn't fucking1.00
03:24:48.920dictate what we do and you'll never understand that either and and it's why you'll never do what0.81
03:24:57.900we've done that's why we want to go to mars how many indians want to go to mars none you want to
03:25:05.240work for elon musk kind of because you want to be in like a palace but you know and there's a
03:25:10.380there's a religious argument i understand that we shouldn't they'd go to mars if there were
03:25:16.260if there were white women there yes but but but also i i don't even want to get into the whole
03:25:22.960like transhumanist space travel thing there's i spoke with a good friend of mine named last things
03:25:28.400um on this very topic about what is the sort of the christian or religious or even spiritual
03:25:34.740response to wanting to colonize other planets i don't even want to rehash that here but
03:25:39.860just to say that there is there's something driving us to do that that is not present i
03:25:45.400don't think in other groups no and and uh this is this is the joe sober what i was thinking of
03:25:51.800joe sober and a staunch traditionalist catholic himself uh the concept of envy the hatred of
03:25:58.520superior has dropped out of our moral vocabulary liberalism has fuzzy ideas of historical guilt
03:26:03.420but not original sin or pride or envy which is pride's obverse the idea that white christian
03:26:10.040civilization is hated more for its virtues than its sins doesn't occur to us because it's not a
03:26:14.960nice idea none of the sins aren't considerable but to the envious sin is more forgivable than virtue
03:26:20.500western man towers over the rest of the world in ways so large as to be almost inexpressible
03:26:26.960it's western exploration science and the conquest that have revealed the world to itself
03:26:32.200all the races feel like subjects of western power long after colonialism imperialism and slavery
03:26:37.980have disappeared the charge of racism puzzles whites who feel not hostility but only baffled
03:26:43.620goodwill because they don't grasp what it really means humiliation the white man presents an image0.78
03:26:49.180of superiority even when he isn't conscious of it and superiority excites envy destroying white0.79
03:26:55.800civilization is the inmost desire of the league of designated victims we call quote minorities
03:27:00.300joe sobram liberty equality and diversity and and to to bring that back to canada real quick
03:27:07.140right the the bajit has literally no athletic accomplishments whatsoever like the the of the
03:27:16.340medals won by india 1.4 billion people right by itself and if you add add in bangladesh and
03:27:23.980pakistan we're looking at you know 1.7 billion people because pakistan's got like 200 billion
03:27:28.600people and bangladesh is 100 million people right look at look at bangladesh look it's it's the size
03:27:36.240of like nebraska and it has 80 million people in it you you white man cannot fathom the number of
03:27:44.480people that just living cheek by jowl on top of each other in squalor that you can't imagine
03:27:48.660yeah have you seen like i always encourage people like go look at videos if you can of what it's
03:27:55.160like to just live in egypt like what is everyone kind of imagines what a favela looks like in south
03:28:00.820america but really just look at the urban sprawl that these people live in it's it's suffocating
03:28:07.300you feel sick looking at it sometimes if you really try to imagine what it's like to be in
03:28:11.620there right and cairo is the most dense city in the world and it's it's been done so with like
03:28:16.220our tax dollars the average average egyptian lives off two dollars a day of russian of russian
03:28:20.960and ukrainian wheat that are like baked into these little bread things that are like uh
03:28:25.280like pita breads that's what they live on and it's u.s u.s tax scholars that buy russian and
03:28:32.520ukrainian wheat and there was nearly a riot at the top of the government a couple years ago when
03:28:37.660the war kicked off in ukraine over the spike in food prices because um they just can't afford it0.81
03:28:44.020But, you know, the Indians in Canada, right, we, you know, the Quebecois can make fun of, we are Quebecois, we are the true faith, you are a bunch of LARP Anglo-Pagans with your pointy noses, right?
03:29:00.900right they just see white guys and the canada um you know the canadian grammy awards
03:29:11.360um are called the juno and the reason they're called the junos is that canada had its own beach
03:29:18.260in the second world war juno beach so this one little country had its entire theater the canadian
03:29:25.880army in world war one was so fierce that they were the best imperial troops these broad-shouldered
03:29:34.760scottish irish white boys who'd been fed on beef and mutton right they were who farmed in ontario
03:29:45.500and the prairies of manitoba and saskatchewan and alberto and log the pacific northwest of
03:29:51.460of uh you know british columbia they were bigger they were better they were stronger
03:29:55.660than the the brits at home who hadn't really been fed a real diet in 1914 and 1915 and all the way
03:30:03.440into the all the way into the 1940s uh you know the the average indian man has the grip strength
03:30:10.920of a polish woman like so they go into canada right and they see these tall good looking
03:30:20.000anglo-ukrainian you know and yeah there was some resentment about the ukrainians but like
03:30:25.200they're just going to saskatchewan right like who right they're going to saskatchewan they're
03:30:30.980going to minnetoba like let them let them have that part um they're gonna go farm the wheat
03:30:36.880on this frozen hellscape they should be used to that uh but you look at these guys
03:30:43.720and even though they're desperate to get over here and they lie about their credentials and
03:30:52.460they lie about what they're doing and they lie about all these other things they resent the
03:30:57.980canadian for just being better than they are for being taller for being better looking for
03:31:05.560building a better place than they could build for for not living in filth like like yeah you don't0.99
03:31:12.340live in filth lol like no i don't because it's fucking disgusting because you have to think about0.96
03:31:17.360where they're coming from too which is that they've probably been led to believe that canada and0.99
03:31:23.660america and europe are so good just by luck of geography you know they have that sort of
03:31:31.120guns germs and steel understanding of history is like they're only rich just because
03:31:35.640luck of the draw and there's no difference between us and we could just swap ourselves
03:31:41.060in there and just reap the rewards and then they get here and realize they are completely ill-equipped
03:31:46.660for this lifestyle they don't understand they probably feel alien once they get here as they
03:31:52.880should um but there's that great quote the civilization is incommunicable you know there's
03:31:59.380a book i read recently that i'm sure many have read which is the camp of the saints i reviewed
03:32:04.540that with a friend of mine t.r hudson on his show cannon fodder you can find i think it's like an
03:32:09.940hour and a half where i actually go through the entire book but that's what this is about like the
03:32:14.340seething bitterness the the embracing of the identity of the other that they feel like they
03:32:23.160see themselves as outsiders they see themselves like i i've gotten into debates with um a couple
03:32:29.220muslims before because i pointed out to them like do you guys realize that you speak of yourselves
03:32:34.440as if you're a swarm of locusts like you'll hear them talk and they'll say guess what we're going0.96
03:32:39.600to outbreed you and before long you're gonna be brown just like as i said you talk of yourself
03:32:45.420as if you're a play there's no dignity in how you describe yourselves do you notice that and i
03:32:52.020actually don't think they do but they just like in camp of the saints they they see themselves
03:32:56.300as this sort of eternal like entropic periphery just swarming in and they don't have a plan b0.55
03:33:04.900they don't give a shit what happens and they just feel like you know i always have the line you know0.89
03:33:08.680you are not owed proximity to white people why so i this is a little bit more of my esoteric take0.98
03:33:15.360is that you know without everything that's not with christ is against christ or is it pagan or
03:33:21.180it's opposite but like you know especially like these muslims or the indians like i'm sure there's
03:33:27.540demons all over this these countries the only thing that's going to drive them out is a good
03:33:31.760priest and it's they don't have any access to that but like it's a sin and it's uh you know
03:33:37.260it's a sin to live it's it's living in filth is a product of sin you know it uh the aggression or
03:33:43.340the the lack of ability to control oneself is is a product of sin um so a lot of it i their their
03:33:51.140animalistic behavior i i think a lot of it just comes from demonic influences like you talked
03:33:56.220about recently i forget the episode but it was about the uh the aztecs and their um they had
03:34:04.180feminism um yeah yeah that was um the book was i believe sex and culture by jd unwin and um it was
03:34:13.100an interesting one it was asex and there's a couple other examples in there too and the the
03:34:18.060point of that whole part was to show that some people will say that female empowerment or feminism
03:34:23.780comes from the enlightenment or it's a often they'll say it's like a christian influence and
03:34:29.460was shown that no it's this strange emergent phenomena that you get in these tribal cultures
03:34:35.580oftentimes with a pretty rudimentary understanding of the world so it's not even really linked to
03:34:43.340social advancement i was just saying that the conflict between men and women is so much deeper
03:34:48.920than just the enlightenment or any sort of ideology or religion or anything it's something
03:34:56.440And I think all these things try and reconcile to various degrees.
03:54:29.180and complaining that i don't have curry in my fridge well we don't do curry here bro we do roast
03:54:38.020beef here we do meat pies which i just got into recently by the way oh big into meat pies but i
03:54:45.780i know i'm looking at patrick right now and i'm hearing his voice in my head or the voice
03:54:50.820of the christian world saying dimes can you reconcile everything you just said
03:54:56.820with the catholic church i believe that you can um and i know you might have mentioned this before
03:55:01.460but uh on that show with prudentialist do you even read we'd covered uh the book on resistance
03:55:08.020to violence by forest by ivan ilian who's an eastern orthodox man um very very famous figure
03:55:13.940radical figure but he was making the case and he was arguing against Tolstoy he's making the case
03:55:21.300against pacifism by saying that you have a duty to fight against evil and you have a duty to
03:55:27.080resist evil aggressively and by force if necessary not condoning torture not condoning anything too
03:55:33.460extreme but you you have a duty to not be pacifist and to let evil wash over you which was what
03:55:39.760tolstoy was saying that you cannot even resist evil because all violence in in itself is evil
03:55:46.120and we're i have an alien i believe many others said no you can wield violence in the name of
03:55:52.860good and so well dimes how can you reconcile these wild things you've said with christianity
03:55:59.000with catholicism aren't you supposed to love your fellow man yes aren't you supposed to be
03:56:02.080charitable yes however there is a political angle that the system that we're describing
03:56:07.240as dark enlightenment had so been so kind to describe was you know you're dealing with a
03:56:14.440satanic system you're dealing with a system that will and if left to its own devices if
03:56:20.000granted all the power will create a nihilistic satanic cesspit and so you are fighting to take
03:56:27.600it on another path to avert that course my path does not lead to a nihilistic satanic cesspit and
03:56:33.300And so if I am inelegant in how I address this, if I am a bit radical in what I think needs to happen to avert that course, it is in the interest of a brighter future and a better tomorrow.
03:56:46.820And so I don't think we have the privilege to be, you know, to to be pacifist at all with this or to be too tolerant.
03:56:56.400yeah like in 1957 in america you could say uh you know what you kind of let it slide because
03:57:02.680things weren't things things look good in canada in 1983 you can look around go yeah you know
03:57:09.120basically everyone's uh everyone's canadian you know they might not go to church as much as they
03:57:13.880often do and maybe drink too much but they're canadian and now we've seen what that indulgence
03:57:18.960and that sort of attitude has led us to and you know like we're in an existential fight for the
03:57:25.220for the western world for for the white race for christianity and like we're not in it we're not
03:57:32.400privileged enough to like let things slide and um and i i think that that's the um you know we
03:57:40.340didn't get to like we'd love to have you back it's i 100 want to come back because we didn't
03:57:45.100get to talk about the main thing we were going to which is kind of we're getting into it just now
03:57:49.880but i don't have to get going soon which was and we'll tease this for the next episode the
03:57:55.160international child sex trafficking syndicates that are woven into not only private but also
03:58:03.440public institutions including the vatican dear listener theodore mccarrick non-pedophile
03:58:09.740was the archbishop cardinal archbishop of washington dc at the same time
03:58:14.080as dennis hastert the former republican speaker of the house who's also a pedophile and uh from
03:58:23.1002001 to 2006 they were both in the sound same town at the same time in vast positions of influence
03:58:30.620and power and if you think those two didn't know each other i have a bridge to sell you
03:58:34.720and we'll dimes will have you back to discuss this stuff and just to recontextualize it just
03:58:39.720we said before we go like they are trying to marginalize you me listener everyone for
03:58:46.520knowing about that if you bring that up this is the system that says you're kooky don't even look0.91
03:58:51.980into that don't connect these dots you're crazy for even thinking it's important so that's how
03:58:57.180you know the problem is massive that's how you know the system itself and this is the uh this
03:59:03.320is the angle that you take i think that the entire system is that corrupt has to permit this sorry
03:59:08.700to interrupt absolutely and i want to thank you for for being here um can you give everyone your
