00:00:00.000 as far back as i can remember i always wanted to be
00:00:07.720 blood satellite i just want to make sure that we can't the sweat from your lips isn't obscuring
00:00:22.400 the audio on this we're good we're good so you're pretty bad over there you're in a bad
00:00:29.480 way right now oh dude it's bad it's like i was at 40 degrees with humidex or the humidex of 40 or
00:00:35.540 how i don't know how they say it but yeah it's insane so just to catch people up you you don't
00:00:41.480 have ac over there and it is a heat wave right now where we live in ontario um everywhere there's a
00:00:47.420 heat going on and um so you're just sweltering in that yeah we live in a hundred year old over
00:00:53.720 a hundred year old farmhouse with a 50 amp circuit breaker and so there's no way we're getting an
00:00:58.560 air conditioner so we just have all the windows open we're trying to run fans all over the place
00:01:01.800 just for comparison's sake we do have ac and i'm actually too cold right now 0.99
00:01:07.160 ah fuck you you're in the basement too my basement's really nice actually it's but i 0.98
00:01:11.940 don't want to go down there it's gross so the way it works is no no house made in the past 1.00
00:01:18.660 couple decades has a proper airflow in it that's just how houses are yeah so even if you have
00:01:25.980 central air it doesn't get to every room sometimes they'll just be dead zones in a house a new build
00:01:31.680 even so uh my son's room nickels his room is always very very hot and so we need to crank the
00:01:39.100 ac just to get him at to like a decent temperature so he doesn't like wake up in the middle of night
00:01:42.900 or something so and i my um you can't see me but my setup is in right below event making this up
00:01:50.980 I'm now in a whole sweatsuit bundled in a blanket right now. 0.98
00:01:55.260 I'm fucking freezing my balls off. 0.98
00:01:59.860 This is very uncomfortable. 0.99
00:02:01.360 I've got like a hot coffee and I'm kind of shaking. 0.99
00:02:05.640 In a fucking heat wave. 0.99
00:02:07.800 Nice. 0.99
00:02:08.780 I'm afraid that my condition has left me cold. 1.00
00:02:12.440 Big gay ops against Dracula. 1.00
00:02:16.000 Man, I remember when we lived in Toronto, 1.00
00:02:18.620 a lot of these buildings didn't have,
00:02:19.760 I mean, most of them didn't have central air unless you bought something to.
00:02:23.200 Oh, no, I don't think we ever lived in a place that had central air.
00:02:25.460 It was always either window AC or ventilation, which is a nice, you know, team building exercise when just to survive, you need to huddle around like you would huddle around a fire.
00:02:37.600 You need to huddle around the cold.
00:02:39.020 Yes.
00:02:39.760 Yeah.
00:02:42.060 I don't know if because we don't build our buildings up here for that.
00:02:45.420 We build them to, like, trap in the heat because of the winter.
00:02:49.520 Yep.
00:02:49.760 yeah we build them for like small windows and insulation but the funny thing is like you're
00:02:54.280 just saying they don't build the houses for ventilation you look at these suburban houses
00:02:57.380 now like there's no windows at all on the sides they're kind of just like front and back with
00:03:02.120 square sides because like who sees the side there was packs so tightly yeah which kind of works if
00:03:06.340 you have a decent central air system but then the central air systems are always installed by
00:03:10.040 central americans
00:03:10.840 that's why they call it central air yeah exactly
00:03:23.860 oh before we get started there's a couple there's one song i want to play there's gonna be a couple
00:03:31.660 songs we play in this episode we've got a submission from uh i know him as eschatonic
00:03:38.320 the end eternal and you can find him on telegram you can find him on a few different places i also
00:03:44.040 know him as winklers meet created a song for us um and you know what we'll just drop that in right
00:03:52.160 now and i'm very very impressed by that song so here it is
00:04:08.320 This is my
00:04:15.320 This is my
00:04:30.320 This is my
00:04:32.320 What's your problem?
00:04:36.320 Thank you.
00:05:06.320 that's that's our song i really like that song a lot of work went into that song
00:05:36.320 professional quality something i'm going to listen to every day of my life this next song
00:05:44.500 it's an ai generated song and the the theme i believe the title is also what it is about 0.97
00:05:52.700 which is i glued my balls to my butthole again nice so here's that i can't wait 0.99
00:06:00.200 I grew my balls to my butt hole, yeah, oh my God, what did I do? 1.00
00:06:08.240 I can't take a dump, cause now my balls are blocking up my butt hole. 1.00
00:06:13.940 Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on you, good God. 1.00
00:06:22.720 I pulled too hard, now my skull is stretched out like a fucking yard, oh God. 1.00
00:06:28.620 I grew my balls through my butthole 1.00
00:06:30.720 And gave it 1.00
00:06:31.580 Oh my God
00:06:33.380 What did I do?
00:06:35.380 I can't take a dump 1.00
00:06:36.880 Cause now my balls 1.00
00:06:38.620 Are blocking up my butthole 1.00
00:06:40.560 It is what it was 0.99
00:06:43.120 Before the show I was just scrolling around
00:06:49.260 And I didn't have anything written down
00:06:51.740 But I'm just looking at a tweet right here
00:06:55.160 From Nina Turner
00:06:56.720 that's a name a lot of people might recognize
00:06:59.420 Nina Turner 1.00
00:07:00.020 she's a senior fellow at the Race Power
00:07:03.460 Policy, former
00:07:05.320 Ohio State Senator
00:07:06.640 you look her up, you've seen her before
00:07:09.120 and she's
00:07:10.960 retweeting some
00:07:13.220 propaganda I suppose you could call it
00:07:15.500 I'm just going to read what it says
00:07:17.060 reparations are owed to the
00:07:19.420 descendants of enslaved black people 1.00
00:07:21.420 it says for crimes 0.90
00:07:23.340 against humanity including but not
00:07:25.360 limited to and i'm reading this because this when you hear reparations you and i probably think of
00:07:30.740 oh this is because of slavery and we're recording this by the way on juneteenth we're recording this
00:07:37.020 a couple days early before it goes out um and my wife has taken to calling it slavery day
00:07:43.000 buck stat is broken
00:07:44.360 and she and she got the day off and it was a great slavery day we were talking about it just before
00:07:52.840 we started but that's why everyone's
00:07:54.980 talking about this okay so this is
00:07:56.980 what reparations include now
00:07:58.420 enslavement lynching 0.85
00:08:00.500 redlining black codes
00:08:03.320 not sure what that means
00:08:04.560 Jim Crow I don't think they
00:08:07.020 know what that means
00:08:07.840 and mass incarceration
00:08:10.500 which is wild and I just
00:08:13.000 responded to her and I said
00:08:14.480 it's so funny reparations now includes 1.00
00:08:17.100 niggas selling too much crack 0.98
00:08:18.780 you can't just include the fact that you're in prison too much as why you need seven trillion 1.00
00:08:27.300 dollars you fucking asshole but like because a lot of us you know white people are wondering 1.00
00:08:34.620 why are they still talking about reparations don't they know don't they know that that's a bad 1.00
00:08:39.380 topic and it's silly no because they're using a different terminology i think blacks are like
00:08:46.300 some of the last people who really really believe in that old style marxist stuff
00:08:50.520 just completely self-interestedly i'm not sure whether it's that they misunderstand it or they
00:08:58.860 unironically truly understand it to its absolute depths which would be that you always apply the
00:09:05.960 rules thoughtlessly to yourself and you never apply them to anyone else because like it is
00:09:11.840 just surreal how cherry-picked everything is you know like even like we're joking about it but the
00:09:17.200 whole thing about mass incarceration it's like like you said so like anybody who's ever literally
00:09:22.080 shot up a school and then been imprisoned if they were black they are owed reparations like
00:09:27.840 i can't you can't even there's nothing to even unpack it's just true insanity you know what 0.99
00:09:35.180 like most of this stuff is coming from black women that's the trend i see and i always think 1.00
00:09:41.440 Like, can you imagine what we would be capable of if any other type of woman was that aggressive for their man's self-interest? 1.00
00:09:50.280 I know black women have their problems with black men. 1.00
00:09:53.160 But really, though, like even Muslim women are like this, too. 0.99
00:09:55.720 Like, they'll fight for their, like, rapist boyfriend to get out of jail. 0.95
00:10:02.080 I'm like, can you imagine if a single white woman did that? 0.96
00:10:06.300 Like, really? 0.96
00:10:07.220 Like, you know, you owe my husband $50 million because he beat me.
00:10:11.440 but you know what i like our way of doing it i think our way is correct like if your husband
00:10:15.820 beats you you shouldn't defend him but you also shouldn't really beat your wife that much anyways
00:10:20.620 like i think we should just get rid of all these people because like you know what i mean like 1.00
00:10:25.160 even the fact that we have to consider that like if we could only be a little bit more like nogs 1.00
00:10:29.560 if we could be a little more like like iq 75 slimes life would be easier like it's so sad 1.00
00:10:35.500 that we're in a position where we're having to make that bargain why can't we just get rid of 1.00
00:10:39.160 them all and go back to how it used to be i pulled the tasseled rope the curtain drew back and i 0.99
00:10:44.240 presented judas a garden and the garden was of can we get money for beating women and he turned his 0.93
00:10:51.220 nose up at me i said no i'm a protestant i like work i like work i will not traipse through your 0.70
00:10:57.620 garden dimes how many times have i heard that on this show somebody needs some weeding done let me
00:11:03.780 get my gloves have you been doing weeding lately i dude i just came in i still have dirt on my
00:11:09.220 knees i haven't had a chance to take a shower let me just say this i've been weeding too 1.00
00:11:13.240 you've been weeding yeah i don't have a very big backyard at our place the wife had got into my 1.00
00:11:25.960 fucking brain compartment and convinced me that what nickels needs more than anything 0.99
00:11:30.600 is a whole bunch of backyard water shit cool so right now we've got in the backyard you know i 0.99
00:11:37.360 would mow it out but i never really took care of it but uh but we actually just we're one of the 0.83
00:11:42.280 few that just have a little bit of grass and so now it's like kiddie pool water table my trusty
00:11:48.540 kevlar hose nice but also like that is part of becoming a man becoming a white man maybe but i
00:11:56.280 like my wife commented the other day like you spent a lot of time staring at the yard
00:12:01.820 i'm just at the window like staring out thinking about like i need to do something about this my
00:12:08.280 my garden grew this year my garden's almost 2 000 square feet now and it's like video games
00:12:13.520 where if i don't if i'm not watching the time i will spend all all day out there and then be in 0.98
00:12:20.440 trouble so a new obsession and it is for the right but like i said a very stupid small man's yard 0.99
00:12:27.280 but it's mine and my son has to go back there and splash around like a psychopath 0.98
00:12:32.180 should tear up all the the entire all the sod the whole yard and replace it with oats
00:12:38.100 i should just have just have an oak field i should just yeah rip it up just fill with corn
00:12:44.580 and people are like what are you doing it's like corn is a grass
00:12:47.400 corn's grass
00:12:48.580 corn's stuff 1.00
00:12:50.700 what the fuck 1.00
00:12:52.400 how about fuck you 1.00
00:12:54.100 you're trying to walk on top of the corn 1.00
00:12:56.500 it's like 8 feet tall
00:12:58.020 I get corn and wheat
00:13:00.240 and I'm just stuck in it
00:13:02.180 trying to scale it
00:13:03.820 I'm doing something
00:13:05.940 dimes
00:13:09.700 what are you doing dimes 1.00
00:13:11.660 how about fuck you 1.00
00:13:13.800 How about I'm doing something? 1.00
00:13:14.900 How about this is all grass?
00:13:16.400 How about nothing's everything? 1.00
00:13:20.080 Fucking normal things! 1.00
00:13:22.500 Get the fuck off my... 1.00
00:13:24.280 Dead nigger storage. 1.00
00:13:26.640 So if we sound tired, 1.00
00:13:28.900 it's because we had just wrapped up last night
00:13:31.600 a three-hour stream on the Digital Archipelago
00:13:35.480 with Gio Pinochetti and The Prudentialist.
00:13:39.880 And that was also following a stream
00:13:43.560 i'd done on monday with king pilled and meta prime which is a dog of a stream because of me
00:13:50.680 because of audio issues that i think i figured out but it was i'm told it was unlistenable at
00:13:58.340 my part specifically you can go listen to it and enjoy king pilled and meta prime talk well you
00:14:03.400 know what i listened to it wasn't to the point of like oh it should have been shut down i could
00:14:06.940 understand what you were saying but it was really irritating because you were cutting out it's one
00:14:10.580 these were like you cut out for a quarter of a second every three seconds so yeah it was bad
00:14:15.120 so yeah those all in a row uh the last stream people have been asking me about the digital
00:14:22.100 archipelago appearance uh it was live people were liking it it had to be uh taken down because geo
00:14:29.660 is gonna edit it put it back up uh which pains me because the chat from that video was the real
00:14:36.600 fourth mic the real fifth mic rather the fifth mic apparently a couple things i had said that
00:14:44.440 were i think in geo's words a bit too spicy so we had to edit those out for posterity i'll tell
00:14:51.040 you what it was it was great the it's hard to explain what it was without explaining how we
00:14:56.800 got there but i'll just drop you in the middle of it we were talking about noam chomsky about
00:15:01.520 how noam chomsky had died but it turns out he wasn't dead uh he had a stroke and uh i forget
00:15:07.600 exactly how we got here but it was noam chomsky the first thing he says when he comes out of his
00:15:14.080 stroke coma just says if the earth was flat then the holocaust couldn't have happened it's a flat
00:15:21.520 earth joke with holocaust characteristics that's what it was yeah which you might only be able to 0.97
00:15:28.260 appreciate if you are a holocaust denier i don't think there's there get a life jews it's a good 0.80
00:15:34.620 filter because if you do find that amusing uh you've had a good hitler morning 0.66
00:15:39.600 so i'll let let people know when that goes up because i had a really great time i think and
00:15:47.440 you were there and i thought we just had a rip roaring good time with that yeah it was awesome
00:15:50.500 good jokes um and we were talking we're talking about an essay not an essay what am i talking
00:15:56.620 about a shitty sub stack released by an individual named walt bismarck who i had covered recently on
00:16:03.280 real secret coffee hours our paywall show on patreon and gumroad so that was the primer for
00:16:09.480 this that we had i had reviewed something and then judas had read another thing so we were all kind
00:16:16.080 of like discussing a bunch of different articles and this um this phenomena in our scene of former
00:16:23.480 alt-right guys who are breaking from the alt-right at saying that they almost denounce everything
00:16:30.760 they had said previously and they're going a new way which is to try and broker relationships with
00:16:37.340 liberals and homosexuals and women and all the people they used to denounce and saying that 0.64
00:16:42.580 that's the serious grown-up thing to do the all the dissident right is all dysgenic childish
00:16:49.120 where yeah you've heard this from like the richard spencers of the world like we're going to grow up
00:16:52.960 now and we're just looking at their actual policies and their actual ideas instead of this
00:16:58.900 bitter resentment it's okay what are you actually proposing and it turns out it's not it's nonsense 0.73
00:17:03.740 it's actually utter nonsense it's saying you know maybe we should give black people reparations 0.99
00:17:09.660 maybe we should be nicer to sluts maybe the jews are actually they desert maybe they're high iq do 1.00
00:17:17.220 you ever think of that we should create new rape laws and bias divorce law further in favor of 1.00
00:17:22.640 women in order to in order to get the woman vote in the next federal election yeah you've heard of 0.55
00:17:27.940 MGTOW right what if we take everything they've complained about and supercharge it yeah it's a
00:17:33.160 and we actually read why and you're like this is there's no justification for this yeah but so we
00:17:39.780 talked about that and um and I'll say my my conclusion reading the article before we even
00:17:45.780 went on the stream and then very rudely fighting with Gio about it bless his heart I love Gio
00:17:52.140 dominating but um guys like walt and spencer the only conclusion you can come to if you're a serious
00:17:59.980 person is if they can say this publicly they never were right wing in the first place we just didn't
00:18:04.900 realize that they were grifters but they've always been grifters because you can't be a far right 0.57
00:18:10.960 principled guy in 2016 and in 2024 say that we need to give reparations to blacks that doesn't 0.95
00:18:16.800 happen i'm sorry if you live in a world where you think that happens it doesn't it's not real so
00:18:21.120 all you you have to just put your big boy pants on and realize that if when you see guys doing that
00:18:26.040 it's because they are the the honestly the very common type of person who don't actually have
00:18:31.380 any principles and will say whatever they need to say to to win an argument or to get paid or to get
00:18:37.160 into a certain group and that's richard spencer and that's walt bismarck and that's uh you know
00:18:43.220 all frankly a lot of guys that wound up coming out of seaville that turned out to be just super 0.94
00:18:48.040 disaffected angry dudes at the time and now they're all fucking socialists and left-wingers 0.98
00:18:52.760 and pro-biden and you know and essentially anti-right basically pro-shit lib because 0.93
00:18:58.360 arguably they've always been friendly to leftist ideas even back when they would have been i mean
00:19:03.240 they're national social the majority of the njp guys were that like that was their thing right 0.98
00:19:07.940 they're they're they're like they're like racist shit libs but they weren't really conservatives 0.98
00:19:12.280 they started off as racist libertarians then they became just straight up national socialists 0.99
00:19:16.980 now they're sorry i'm gonna get stomped on because i just said conservatives i meant
00:19:20.920 right wing to me yeah anyways i forget i said conservatives i meant they're not really right
00:19:26.140 wing yeah um and and to me the reason this is relevant is because it's part of like i said
00:19:31.600 a larger phenomenon we're seeing like a few people and they're trying to make this the mainstream
00:19:36.660 push from our side uh and to be fair geo's position because geo is a very diplomatic guy 0.92
00:19:43.940 he's very good natured he just doesn't want diplomatic he just doesn't want to be shitting
00:19:48.040 on people he doesn't like starting drama or fights and he wants to maintain good relationships and
00:19:52.700 good on him for that i am merely at a point in my life where i'm not interested in doing that
00:19:59.860 anymore i'm not here like calling out everyone that i disagree with but i am making a point that
00:20:05.460 if i'm convinced someone has the capacity to do harm or is a bad actor or is just a wretched
00:20:14.960 individual i don't want to use the word toxic but these people who have no first principles
00:20:19.300 like grifter gets thrown around a lot i think that's too weak of a term to say these people
00:20:24.580 are just they're cancer because there's lots of people i disagree with who you'll never hear me 0.98
00:20:29.040 talk shit about there's a lot of people i disagree with or even like talk shit about where i'm like 0.98
00:20:33.320 i bet if we actually met we'd be okay it's just discourse right but then there's people like i'm 0.99
00:20:40.340 i need to make a point not even they'd be better over here they'd be better fucking farming they'd 0.96
00:20:46.020 be better doing something else like they're they're ruining their lives taking some people 0.96
00:20:49.700 seriously the stuff with like spencer and bismarck and henena and these people it's just beyond the
00:20:55.080 pale like there's no coming back even if they were to completely change their tune two three years
00:20:59.560 from now you can't ever you literally cannot ever trust them again it's it's completely spoiled
00:21:04.580 and like i'm never get tired of saying there are so many good smart you know right-headed guys out
00:21:11.720 there who you can listen to a lot of young guys coming up right now why would you spend an extra 0.96
00:21:15.920 minute of your limited lifespan on another paragraph written by one of these clowns when 0.85
00:21:21.100 you could just find somebody who actually um isn't you know a freeloading unprincipled grifting 0.95
00:21:27.360 mutant yeah and so that's why when judas said we're like fighting with geo it was mainly me
00:21:33.280 uh judas was making more of a reasoned uh emphatic approach i was just screaming walt 1.00
00:21:40.800 bismarck's a fucking dumb faggot um i wonder if that'll stay in i'm not sure but i do stand by 1.00
00:21:47.860 that because you know i i want to say this that you know i when i say that you are kind of playing 1.00
00:21:53.780 it up on the audio but people will say that guys like him and there's you know there's lots of
00:22:00.360 people like him you know they're kind of they're being controversial on purpose they're trying to
00:22:04.480 pull your strings they're trying to be you know get you riled up with some of these sensational
00:22:10.600 headlines such a sad coat but also it's so the what they want you to do is you're supposed to
00:22:15.280 behold this and go oh i see what you're doing and i'm not even going i'm going to smile and laugh
00:22:20.680 with you i'm like but i just think to how would men a hundred years ago have approached something 1.00
00:22:26.780 like this someone says some dumb shit you should say shut up you fucking faggot yeah like it's not 1.00
00:22:32.580 even angry it's just like disgust it's like well yeah that's the other side of it aside from guys 1.00
00:22:37.320 who just have no principles and aren't taking this seriously in the sense that it doesn't matter to
00:22:41.700 them but there's guys who aren't taking it seriously as in like they don't have the sense
00:22:44.980 of gravitas right like they're um there's gravity of the situation i guess what i meant to say but
00:22:49.960 like on the one hand if if if walt was seriously like genuinely making these proposals for federal
00:22:57.280 politics in the u.s he can't be serious because it's insanely left-wing if he was doing it all
00:23:02.300 as a troll then he also can't be serious in the sense that he's not a serious person he spent a 0.94
00:23:08.540 week writing an eight-page sub stack that was all a big fucking joke and meant to distract us and 0.99
00:23:13.800 give us a laugh like no fuck off you're not a either way you're not a serious or useful person 0.99
00:23:17.720 cut off done it's over just imagine walt bismarck specifically going back a hundred years 1.00
00:23:24.140 with any of his sub stacks pouring out of his mouth going into a bar going to a saloon even 0.96
00:23:31.200 he walks in and just says i think we should be nicer to sluts to the first guy he meets who 0.79
00:23:38.280 immediately turn around say me and my five friends here we're going to attach you to a flagpole and 0.99
00:23:44.520 run you up the flagpole until someone attach you to one flagpole and run you up a second flagpole
00:23:50.420 i'm gonna run you up a few flagpoles it's a very bugs bunny yeah immediately without questioning
00:23:58.980 the moment you hear that you're thinking oh i'm gonna i have to fill your pants with concrete
00:24:03.240 and throw you in the pond yeah and then so when the children and the women wake up and
00:24:08.000 they're walking to school they just see you in the pond going
00:24:10.660 i was just trying to win the hispanic vote 0.77
00:24:16.840 it's like every imagined wall bismarck as a 0.96
00:24:24.960 red dead redemption 2 skin just walking into a bar 0.99
00:24:28.820 and every dialogue option gets you fucking kick the shit out of 0.99
00:24:33.100 he really is a like a red dead redemption npc 1.00
00:24:37.640 some retard that you have to deal with 0.99
00:24:40.840 in order to continue your mission 1.00
00:24:41.960 but there's guys like this all the time
00:24:44.000 I'm just using him as an example
00:24:45.980 we've been talking about this on the show 1.00
00:24:47.420 individuals who have no first principles
00:24:49.440 it's this sort of faux Machiavellian
00:24:52.760 here's what we need to do to win
00:24:54.420 the big ideology
00:24:56.880 for the elite theorists
00:24:58.800 a lot of them is
00:24:59.360 what if
00:25:00.160 I have an ideology
00:25:01.880 nay a religion 1.00
00:25:03.460 what if we were just extremely cunning
00:25:06.820 and we got everything we wanted like these i said on the stream i'm like these are less than
00:25:12.620 thoughts this doesn't even qualify as an opinion it's just like what if what if we could convince 0.95
00:25:17.600 the cia to target our enemies right right right i love that what the fuck what he had one of them 0.93
00:25:25.360 in there that was like 10 paragraphs about how to deal with the brahmin question and he's like 0.98
00:25:30.040 you know introduction we need to deal with the indians and now body of the of the paragraph is
00:25:35.740 the way we deal with the indians is we make a plan we make a plan by thinking about it and then
00:25:39.760 deciding we need to consider this and this once we've considered it then we make the plan then we 1.00
00:25:44.100 execute the plan now it's resolved see it's like well what you haven't said anything like showing
00:25:49.800 you a powerpoint presentation on how to make the best powerpoint presentation yeah exactly
00:25:54.460 what yeah this isn't even what we're supposedly here for anyway again the only reason i bring
00:26:01.400 this up is you're seeing a lot of this happen right now as more of our ideas and opinions
00:26:07.560 and topics broach the mainstream there seems to be this contingent of guys oftentimes you can
00:26:14.060 you know call back their genesis many many years ago saying that okay now it's time do you guys
00:26:20.620 want to win here's what we need to do we need to be libs and mike that to me is suspicious
00:26:26.600 this why are you doing this we're actually doing a pretty good job you know what i know not to go
00:26:31.380 on too much of a tangent but a lot of what's been happening like say with the dime square people
00:26:35.260 right it's been people who are like you know i was a leftist for my whole life but again the
00:26:40.720 covid really opened my eyes and at the age of 35 or 42 i realized that i've been wrong all along
00:26:48.300 it's like well you were retarded up till 18 months ago you're probably still retarded like i don't 0.91
00:26:54.620 know why it's almost like you know the left has the token black guy so they can gain credibility 0.96
00:26:59.040 like we have token left-wing intellectuals who have fallen out with the left-wing crowd and
00:27:04.020 joined us and we actually give them more leeway because i don't and i don't understand that
00:27:08.640 like especially like it's one thing if you're a kid like everybody's a leftist when they're a kid
00:27:12.060 right but you got guys that are in their 30s that are coming in here and they're like well in 2022
00:27:15.940 i was very left-wing but then i you know i really figured it out it's like no you you're you're a 0.98
00:27:20.100 grown man yeah you there's nothing you can do to erase all that that bullshit you will never be 0.97
00:27:25.440 anything but a second class member of this group you will never be anywhere near leadership you 0.99
00:27:30.620 will never even be on parody with us because we've been fighting this for most of our lives 0.97
00:27:34.980 and you were our opponent up until we had we beat you over the head with it for 15 fucking years so 0.96
00:27:41.260 no i'm not interested in your ally ship or whatever the fuck you want to call it where did you come 0.96
00:27:46.060 from yeah that's why i'd always made the case and we've both done this that we actually need more 0.91
00:27:50.580 filters on this side yeah we want to roll out the red carpet for any you know jilted leftist who 0.96
00:27:56.580 comes over it's like yeah yeah yeah you're right no no fuck yeah yeah yeah don't roll your eyes 1.00
00:28:04.260 as you're crossing the fucking picket line don't fuck don't say like okay yeah i guess you're right 1.00
00:28:09.400 no i need like five years of an apology tour from all of these fuckers i need you to explain in 1.00
00:28:15.780 detail where you're wrong why you'll never make that mistake again why the fuck do i need you 0.99
00:28:20.540 we appreciate your money if you're gonna donate to the show and you're gonna like back us up 0.99
00:28:25.180 but like don't come in here and like you know try to try to talk like just keep your mouth shut
00:28:31.520 forever please yeah no if you're a um retired leftist when you come over here when you cross 0.99
00:28:38.420 that bridge you have to start the guards the fucking spears crossed as next name five creators 0.91
00:28:45.000 that you're donating to right now yeah you have to be giving 250 a month to these causes name the 0.97
00:28:52.240 five that you're giving to that could be sub stacks that could be podcasts that could be designers 0.99
00:28:56.680 musicians i don't know if you are coming over here you need to be giving money otherwise fuck off not 0.99
00:29:02.840 even to us to my friends i don't give a shit give it to someone give it to geo give it to 0.99
00:29:08.220 prudentials give it to any of these people like you need to make amends for the fact that you 0.98
00:29:12.260 were a retard for too long far too long you probably just start saying maybe something was 0.79
00:29:18.700 up with this covid thing now you have to give a thousand dollars to be allowed over here if not 1.00
00:29:24.540 and stay over there with the fucking fags and trannies and suicidal women and we yeah people 1.00
00:29:30.360 showing up now like in the past year and they're like oh covid really opened my eyes it's like okay 1.00
00:29:34.720 so then where were you in 2020 what you mean is is uh the vaccine injury shit opened your eyes 0.83
00:29:40.560 The COVID lockdowns, the authoritarianism that destroyed my company and livelihood permanently, as well as a million other people, that didn't bother you. 0.99
00:29:49.160 But what bothers you now is the fact that your mom died because of the vaccine.
00:29:54.020 Great. 1.00
00:29:54.980 So, like, fuck you. 1.00
00:29:56.460 Like, I don't – fuck you, man. 1.00
00:29:58.560 Get out of here. 1.00
00:29:59.620 The people who change society are men and mostly white men. 0.98
00:30:05.620 And we have most of them. 1.00
00:30:07.100 we don't need we need women for their like motherhood and shit but we actually don't need 1.00
00:30:14.040 you like we know that you'll come anyway because like you said they're revealed preference machines 0.99
00:30:18.500 but like i don't need to court you we have all the fucking cool guys we've got all the veterans 0.71
00:30:22.480 yeah we don't need anybody else frankly we just we need to shape the people that we have we don't 0.98
00:30:26.920 need more people right now our veterans look like guys who have shot human beings you see a leftist 0.55
00:30:32.660 veteran it's like a fat woman with like gray purple hair like you're you're technically a
00:30:38.080 veteran but it's like we have the guys that you think of when you think of veterans they're all 0.98
00:30:42.700 fucking over here and everyone's having five kids and we have the guys that look like what the 0.96
00:30:47.320 japanese think of when they think of an american soldier yeah and guess what they're all building 0.99
00:30:50.820 their houses in the woods and they're we're all shooting guns and we're all like having a better
00:30:55.880 time by the way you're gonna come over here because every year it's it's you you want to 0.99
00:31:01.280 kill yourself over there your parties suck there's not enough cocaine to make your friends 0.97
00:31:06.240 interesting everyone here is stone cold sober and they're having the time of their lives 1.00
00:31:10.600 if you had a bit of booze it's a fucking circus 0.98
00:31:13.360 fact i'm looking at a headline here we gotta move on all right move on we might even cut this 0.99
00:31:21.360 one kind of short because they're so tired so maybe i zip through this whatever happened to
00:31:27.540 the first cryogenically frozen humans that's a good question i never thought about that you got
00:31:34.700 to think about it at some point yeah yeah here's the headline this was published in 2022 actually
00:31:39.560 but it says a few of them decomposed into a quote plug of fluids and were scraped off the bottom of
00:31:46.620 the capsule that seems a bit lurid you know it seems like someone's getting boned up when they're
00:31:54.680 writing that and they're scraped off well are you saying that the the futurist tech bros of the
00:32:03.240 1960s and 70s were not all they cracked up to be you just say it ain't so can you imagine the first
00:32:09.080 generation of people who upload their sentience to the cloud computer just become ad bots although
00:32:16.600 they just they upload themselves into i have no mouth and i must scream yeah yeah we'll never know
00:32:21.500 we'll never know until 20 years later our time which is like 20 million years their time yeah
00:32:27.980 oh god so i'm looking at just the first paragraph here several facilities in the u.s and abroad
00:32:34.280 maintain morbid warehouse morgues full of frozen human heads and bodies waiting for the future
00:32:40.520 they probably couldn't have thought that would work did they anyway because at some point they
00:32:47.460 said can you can you freeze my whole body no we'll just need the head but this is the point and not
00:32:51.920 to make it too real but the whole thing with the the like in the brian johnson's of the world by
00:32:55.840 the way it's funny because the thumbnail for this article looks like a frozen brian johnson head
00:32:59.080 which is a riot but like the brian johnson's of the world now they don't have to con they don't
00:33:03.440 have to convince scientists right the scientists don't have to believe it you the consumer needs 0.84
00:33:08.720 to believe it and you the consumer don't know fucking anything about the science and you never
00:33:12.200 will they just need to convince a tiny minority of you just enough to buy into it so that they 0.80
00:33:18.500 can get paid because that's all that it is that's all it ever will be so and i'm sure that's what
00:33:22.740 was with getting the heads frozen it's like they don't need it to work they just need you to give 0.98
00:33:26.940 them money and then they can you know skip town which is what this fucking guy did if you're 0.99
00:33:32.080 wearing a lab coat you can get people to do whatever the fuck you want it seems yeah yeah 1.00
00:33:36.460 can you surrender pay me to give me your head if he wasn't wearing a lab coat would that sound 0.97
00:33:44.760 normal they are part of a story that is ghoulish darkly humorous yet endearingly sincere
00:33:52.120 for a small group of fervent futurists it is their lottery ticket to immortality
00:33:57.980 you know there is a message of hubris that could be interpreted here
00:34:02.180 I thought I was getting immortality
00:34:06.200 but I just got turned into 0.62
00:34:07.600 decrepit sludge
00:34:09.200 he says
00:34:11.840 humans are particularly difficult to preserve
00:34:13.920 because of the delicate structure in most
00:34:15.980 of our heads
00:34:16.780 it's funny when you don't refer
00:34:20.080 to it as anything else except our heads
00:34:21.900 deprived of
00:34:24.180 oxygen at room temperature the brain dies
00:34:26.180 within minutes while the body may be reanimated
00:34:28.240 the person who lives is often in
00:34:29.960 permanent vegetative state
00:34:31.620 so just
00:34:33.500 it would have to thaw you out as a brain 1.00
00:34:35.700 dead retard 1.00
00:34:36.480 when a cryonic 1.00
00:34:39.540 patient dies a race begins to prepare 0.86
00:34:41.960 and cool the body before 0.56
00:34:43.660 it decays and then place inside
00:34:45.840 a douar a thermos bottle
00:34:47.840 filled with liquid nitrogen
00:34:49.040 that's it I don't think they just
00:34:51.600 froze in liquid nitrogen I just thought it was
00:34:53.540 something a bit more complex than that
00:34:55.480 I mean first of all it's a douar 1.00
00:34:56.840 douar 1.00
00:34:58.720 douar
00:34:59.700 Doer 1.00
00:35:00.620 Fucking doer 0.99
00:35:03.480 Amazing 1.00
00:35:04.840 They placed aside a getter done
00:35:06.900 A doer flash
00:35:11.140 It's just that movie
00:35:13.220 The Pursuit of Happiness with Will Smith
00:35:15.100 Instead of trying to run across Manhattan
00:35:17.600 Selling bone density scanners
00:35:19.420 And being homeless 0.99
00:35:20.960 He's trying to sell fucking getter done 0.99
00:35:22.880 Cryogenically frozen machines 0.99
00:35:24.520 Just a sweating 1.00
00:35:27.420 Panicked fucking Will Smith 0.99
00:35:29.220 the inner vessel of the doer contains a body or bodies how are you putting in here wrapped in 0.99
00:35:37.380 several layers of insulating material attached to a stretcher uh the head is oriented downward
00:35:42.600 to keep the brain the coldest and most stable this doesn't sound even scientific the more you
00:35:47.820 read it's like no you got to place the head down so it's colder yeah oh read read further it gets
00:35:53.460 better this vessel lies within a second outer vessel separated by a vacuum to avoid heat transfer
00:35:58.900 bodies were originally and still may be some in some cases cooled and frozen in whatever condition
00:36:04.880 they were in a death with better or worse preservation as we shall see the first frozen
00:36:10.800 futurists failed in their quest for mortality small freezing operations began in the 60s
00:36:15.500 by and large these preservations did not achieve preservation they were nightmarish
00:36:19.780 gruesome failures their stories were researched and documented by people within the field
00:36:24.600 the largest operation was run out of a cemetery
00:36:27.560 in Chatsworth, California 1.00
00:36:29.060 there's always some shit going down in California 1.00
00:36:31.320 nothing changes 1.00
00:36:33.120 Robert Nelson
00:36:34.660 four of his
00:36:37.520 first clients were not initially frozen
00:36:39.460 but placed on a bed of dry ice in a mortuary
00:36:42.000 now I'm just
00:36:43.980 reading several paragraphs of dead children
00:36:46.100 I know there's a lot of it
00:36:47.680 most of it is like cataloging
00:36:49.840 the misadventures of
00:36:51.880 Bob Nelson in his mortuary
00:36:53.660 one of them he says like the families after a few years lose interest and stop paying
00:36:57.960 but he's still got these doer flasks full of corpses so he just stops maintaining them and
00:37:03.500 they all just like rot out the bottom and some of them he wasn't getting out of money because
00:37:07.300 he's going bankrupt so he took like four of the bodies out and packed them like quote unquote a
00:37:12.460 puzzle and into a single flask and then buried it and then people came by to check and they're like
00:37:19.160 it smells like rotting corpses in here he's like yeah well i mean i'm broke like this is the state 0.87
00:37:23.440 of things there it says it sounds like dead children here i i'm broke nigga i'm broke 0.92
00:37:30.400 because he's just clutching receipts he's like what do you want for nothing 0.90
00:37:38.100 poor guy i like this guy people come to him and he acts like it's not his business like
00:37:43.980 i don't know what's going on hey buddy i just work here that's above my pay grade
00:37:50.380 i i just wanted to be a corpse guy
00:37:55.640 out of those frozen prior to 1973 one remains preserved uh robert bedford was sealed in 1967
00:38:05.860 instead of leaving the body to meet a horrific fate under nelson's care bedford's family took
00:38:11.200 custody of the capsule meticulously caring for it at their own expense i mean really like
00:38:15.980 the the people who kind of stopped paying seemed to have the right idea yeah like i think they
00:38:22.460 like this this isn't anything by the way this is like one guy in a room like we all know that
00:38:28.900 funeral industry and mortuaries are a total scam right like it's a whole industry that preys on
00:38:34.600 grieving families and the thing with the uh the cryogenic freezing is they always sell it like
00:38:40.660 ooh, it's mad geniuses and Walt Disney
00:38:43.820 and futurists who are freezing themselves
00:38:46.240 to come back in the future
00:38:47.460 with their interest on their bonds or whatever.
00:38:51.080 But it's not.
00:38:52.320 It really is just grieving families
00:38:54.300 trying to preserve the bodies of their loved ones 0.99
00:38:57.080 and then getting absolutely raped 1.00
00:38:59.540 by guys like Bob Nelson. 0.99
00:39:01.080 So it's weird that they call it...
00:39:03.120 You'd have a better chance of reviving Lenin's corpse.
00:39:04.360 Yeah. 0.80
00:39:06.980 You'd have a better chance of reviving
00:39:08.540 a taxidermied corpse.
00:39:10.660 than a cryogenically frozen corpse. 0.95
00:39:12.600 They're going to feel so stupid when in the future we can revive anything. 0.97
00:39:16.580 Like, you can revive a ham sandwich. 0.97
00:39:18.300 It doesn't matter.
00:39:20.000 It's free.
00:39:21.120 We could upload whatever into whatever. 0.99
00:39:23.640 The only people that are fucked are the cryogenically frozen people. 0.99
00:39:26.820 You paid so much money just to wreck it. 0.99
00:39:30.780 It would be great just to start a company like this.
00:39:33.660 Yeah, I invented a new type of way of preserving old rich people,
00:39:38.540 and you're going to get a few.
00:39:40.660 Because like they say here, is it is it futurist thinking or is it wishful thinking?
00:39:45.460 I guess probably wishful thinking, but also like you're frozen in the state of when you
00:39:52.580 died.
00:39:53.520 So like you're no matter what, you're going to wake up dying or dead, right?
00:40:00.040 You're waking up dead.
00:40:01.620 So you're hoping it's like they're in the future.
00:40:04.340 They're going to find a cure for heart failure.
00:40:06.880 No, no, a hundred percent of the time they need to have cured death because you are dead when you get frozen.
00:40:11.600 Right, right, right. Exactly.
00:40:13.240 Like, it's just the misunderstanding of it's very kind of metaphysical, too, because it's I mean, at what point do you dig in and say, you know, the pattern of neurons and electrons and whatever in your brain, which represents your thoughts and your mood and everything?
00:40:27.940 In what way is that you? And to the extent that it's you, even just freezing it for a second immediately destroys it.
00:40:33.620 So, like, are you trying to bring your soul back?
00:40:36.600 Or I guess the joke is, is people who do this don't believe in souls anyway.
00:40:39.960 They're totally mechanistic in their thinking.
00:40:41.800 I think Walt Disney is an illustrative example where if he was unfrozen right now, he would kill himself.
00:40:48.400 What was the one family guy clip I've seen a million times?
00:40:51.720 Like, he wakes up from the freezing and he's like, the Jews are not dead yet.
00:40:55.240 Put me back in. 0.89
00:40:56.740 Or something like that.
00:40:58.080 Yeah, that was good.
00:40:59.820 But also, like, that would happen.
00:41:02.200 Yes. 0.86
00:41:03.620 They had a black president 50 years ago.
00:41:07.000 Jesus Christ. 1.00
00:41:08.440 It's getting worse.
00:41:10.140 Can you freeze me back in time?
00:41:12.560 Can you freeze the world? 0.99
00:41:18.560 You wake up from crowd jet and you freeze it immediately and say, can I kill everybody?
00:41:22.880 you know what um speaking of which um there was a couple of articles i read here that are very
00:41:34.980 very interesting and these ties into what we were discussing on the live stream the prudentialist
00:41:39.960 and geo and a couple others we've uh mentioned recently but i'm looking at axios right now
00:41:45.900 and there was a poll taken and the headline is exclusive poll America warms to mass deportations
00:41:54.220 is it possible that that's actually what people support is 62 percent of Americans want people
00:42:00.440 who are here illegally gone yes and it's also possible they just look at the border footage
00:42:05.200 and they look at the footage like you just cited in New York and said whatever this is I don't want
00:42:09.840 that it doesn't have to be that complicated people understand this on a very basic level and
00:42:14.540 The unfortunate part is the crisis is so bad and the policies are so inconsistent that for the first time in 10 years, we've seen the least support for legal immigration.
00:42:25.540 We've seen that number go down. We've seen the number go down of people that think people are here for a good, relatable reason go down to the lowest level since 2013.
00:42:36.540 And this was a survey of just around over 6,000 adults.
00:42:41.320 And when they do these surveys, the sample is vetted and confirmed, whatever.
00:42:47.080 It says the share of Americans who say they support mass deportations of undocumented immigrants is now, for the first time, I think at 51%.
00:42:56.640 Like the majority, officially the majority of all Americans.
00:43:00.880 And then it breaks it down by race.
00:43:02.220 so that'd be 56 56 percent of whites surprisingly low 45 percent of latinos
00:43:10.160 surprisingly high i guess but then 40 percent of blacks like you would think the blacks would be 1.00
00:43:16.200 in favor more than the fucking hispanics but yeah that should that shit's why blacks don't vote in 1.00
00:43:21.880 their interest they vote in what they think their interests are from the perspective of a person with 1.00
00:43:27.040 a very low they vote against what they think white people are in favor of right you know what that's
00:43:32.460 a better way of putting it whatever whites are voting for i'm doing the opposite they're also 0.99
00:43:37.420 more susceptible to like skinner box media shit than whites are so they believe for the people 0.99
00:43:42.940 that believe in every single conspiracy theory they don't believe in any good ones i guess 0.99
00:43:47.080 um even 42 of democrats believe this um americans are open to former president trump's harshest
00:43:55.780 immigration plan spurned on by a record surge of illegal border crossings um and you're seeing the
00:44:01.380 pushback of this in the the media right now you can go on twitter you can go on social media
00:44:07.140 and there's a lot of you know policy wonks and talking heads saying that if they wanted to do
00:44:12.260 this to deport this many people that it would involve it would take all of our budget it would
00:44:18.620 take all the money in america to do this and people would die and more this is the important
00:44:24.780 story here more and more people i'm seeing are going okay whatever scare tactic you got i am
00:44:31.940 okay with i tolerate that yeah there's going to be a bunch of like maybe your family are roped
00:44:37.900 into okay well you know what you know that's the way the cookie rumbles so you know what that's
00:44:42.720 the way she goes somebody one of the comments you had i think it was on you'd put it on twitter
00:44:46.700 or something but somebody pointed out that if you are claiming that the violent option and the
00:44:51.360 non-violent option or equally evil people will immediately point out that the violent option is
00:44:55.820 way more effective and cheaper so we'll just do the violent thing like the whole point to the
00:45:00.380 non-violent option is um it's not as bad like you should be okay with the non-violent option
00:45:06.960 because like and what we're saying here we're not proposing this but just to explain exactly
00:45:11.040 what's being talked about mass interpretation is not explicitly violent because they're saying oh
00:45:16.780 it's just like hitler well if you believe the stories hitler put people in concentration camps
00:45:22.080 and then put them in death roller coasters we're not saying we should actually pay to get them
00:45:26.500 nice economy class flights back to their home countries we'll even buy them lunch that's what
00:45:31.740 we're saying right so if that is as bad as death coasters we may as well do death coasters because
00:45:37.880 it's cheaper and faster right what we want to do is draft them and help defend our greatest ally 0.95
00:45:43.940 Israel and send them to Israel 0.95
00:45:45.800 Outstanding 0.99
00:45:46.980 Yeah I mean Israel is always willing to help
00:45:49.760 Because they're our greatest ally
00:45:50.700 So they would love to have
00:45:52.200 And it's warm and it's very hot there
00:45:55.400 So they'd love to have our Central Americans 1.00
00:45:57.440 These illegal immigrants are just as
00:45:59.680 American as you 1.00
00:46:00.900 So they should die for Israel 1.00
00:46:02.820 Yeah 1.00
00:46:03.400 Checkmate 1.00
00:46:07.460 Atheist 1.00
00:46:08.200 Bingo
00:46:09.040 It's kind of over
00:46:11.400 Yeah, but that is what I'm seeing.
00:46:13.740 I'm seeing people,
00:46:14.660 like, I think that's such a good point
00:46:16.180 you had just made,
00:46:17.040 which is that the less,
00:46:20.220 the non-violent option
00:46:21.500 is preferable, but impossible.
00:46:24.960 The violent option is not at all preferable,
00:46:27.880 but according to you, it is possible.
00:46:30.740 Like, according to us,
00:46:31.740 like, it's just going to be
00:46:32.740 the worst thing in the world.
00:46:33.600 I'm like, you know what?
00:46:34.380 At this point,
00:46:35.400 I'm okay with the worst thing in the world.
00:46:37.280 And more people are.
00:46:38.480 And that's what,
00:46:39.220 they don't know how to react to that.
00:46:40.760 And that was the entire impetus behind the wall, by the way.
00:46:43.860 The wall was a last resort.
00:46:45.640 The wall was saying that we tried everything else.
00:46:47.140 We tried drones.
00:46:48.400 We tried fences.
00:46:49.340 We tried moats.
00:46:50.280 We tried more policing there.
00:46:52.400 But I guess the nuclear option is to build a wall. 0.91
00:46:55.640 Well, the nuclear option is actually nuking Mexico, but we're not going to do that yet. 0.99
00:47:00.960 It would be like making Tijuana into a fucking crater. 0.98
00:47:05.580 But barring that, we just build a giant wall. 0.99
00:47:08.080 It sounds crazy.
00:47:09.060 it sounds over the top and very expensive but it'll work it'll build you don't need to build
00:47:17.200 it high enough that they can't get over you build it high enough so when they scale the other side 0.98
00:47:21.800 they fall and break their fucking legs that's the point of a fucking wall yeah exactly i don't i 0.99
00:47:27.060 don't care how tall their ladders are they don't have ladders on the other side and they don't have 0.99
00:47:31.880 parachutes that's why you do it well the other thing is is it would be much much cheaper to do 0.84
00:47:37.520 the korean option and just have a guard every 50 yards who shoots anything that moves it'd be way
00:47:42.660 cheaper than building a wall so like we have we have more lots of options like you're complaining
00:47:47.840 about the option which is simultaneously the most expensive the least effective and the most humane
00:47:54.260 and you're mad about it being not humane enough so it's like if there's no pleasing you on the
00:47:58.980 humanity spectrum we may as well save some money right yeah and look here when asked to identify
00:48:05.520 their greatest concern about illegal
00:48:07.440 immigration, Americans most
00:48:09.320 frequently cited, here's the top three,
00:48:11.480 increased crime rates,
00:48:13.300 the additional cost to taxpayers,
00:48:15.640 and risk of terrorism.
00:48:18.100 I think there is
00:48:19.340 a future where people can just be honest, 1.00
00:48:21.500 which is like, I don't want more Mexicans here. 1.00
00:48:23.960 And that's enough. You're allowed 1.00
00:48:25.520 to say that. That's what I said on the stream last night, too.
00:48:27.460 This is in Mexico.
00:48:29.320 The name of the game, the one word
00:48:31.520 to affix to the top of your
00:48:33.620 psyche right now is remigration that's the line that a lot of people don't want to cross
00:48:38.620 they don't want to cross it because that's you know there's legalistic arguments to me by why
00:48:43.600 the these people should be deported but what you really want is to remigrate the ones who were
00:48:49.400 you know granted citizenship over the past 10 years as blatant and naked political moves which
00:48:56.280 is what joe biden is trying to do right now by naturalizing a bunch of illegal immigrants 0.99
00:49:01.020 seemingly at random for no fucking reason. 0.97
00:49:03.980 It's like, we just got to do it. 0.97
00:49:05.540 We got to do it right now.
00:49:07.740 President Biden is set to take executive action
00:49:10.280 to protect about half a million undocumented immigrants
00:49:13.460 from being deported.
00:49:14.740 The sweeping immigration policy
00:49:16.100 will allow certain undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens
00:49:19.460 to apply for permanent residency
00:49:21.620 without having to leave the country.
00:49:23.340 It's one of the federal government's
00:49:24.820 biggest relief initiatives since DACA.
00:49:26.880 That's the program that protects undocumented immigrants
00:49:29.680 who came to the U.S. as children from deportation.
00:49:33.060 We'd go through the paperwork and say,
00:49:35.660 you know what, 45% of the Mexicans we have here right now, 1.00
00:49:40.460 we're going to send them back to. 1.00
00:49:41.840 Why? 0.95
00:49:42.480 We just don't want them here. 1.00
00:49:43.760 We don't want these huge sections where people need to learn Spanish. 1.00
00:49:47.820 We're not getting anything.
00:49:48.820 And when people admit that, 0.98
00:49:50.120 just like with the Indian problem in Canada, 1.00
00:49:53.040 just admit you don't want a bunch of Indians around. 1.00
00:49:55.200 That's it. 1.00
00:49:56.400 They could be terrorists.
00:49:57.900 Let's say they're not terrorists. 0.93
00:49:58.960 let's say zero percent of mexican immigrants and indian immigrants are terrorists be honest you 1.00
00:50:05.460 just don't like having them around and you're it's okay that you feel that way you're allowed to 1.00
00:50:10.380 you probably can trace your roots back here 12 generations a lot of people can yeah you're
00:50:16.160 allowed you're allowed to be weirded out by these people who kind of show up and they're
00:50:19.060 they're subtly hostile to your culture and they have names for you they call you gringo and you've 0.99
00:50:24.780 decided that gringos it's kind of a term of endearment no they're calling you a fucking 0.99
00:50:28.340 nigger bring it bring it back around to the to the walt thing he was talking about the indian 1.00
00:50:33.360 problem he's saying like oh you know the problem with indians is x y and z and we can't let them 1.00
00:50:37.760 outnumber us and form enclaves so we need to like be very serious about the way that we cap them and 1.00
00:50:42.580 control their population it's like no no this isn't about allowing a bunch of them in here and 1.00
00:50:48.280 making a deal with them i want them all gone every single one of them their culture is not compatible 1.00
00:50:52.800 with my culture i don't like them this isn't their home this is my home and i don't want them here i 1.00
00:50:57.880 don't have to give you a fucking reason you know i don't need to argue this with you they don't 0.96
00:51:01.700 it's you know i mean like if somebody comes into your house it's like yeah but i'm a really nice 0.99
00:51:05.080 guy like no it's my house i don't care you this isn't a fucking negotiation you're gonna leave 0.89
00:51:11.160 or bad things are gonna happen like it's not why are we even talking about this it's like well 0.99
00:51:16.400 your constitution says constitution it's not spanish fuck off comprende uh is the constitution 0.99
00:51:25.800 written on a burrito unstoppable just be a dick you're it's it's your constitutional right to tell 1.00
00:51:33.220 whoever you want these people to fuck off you can tell me to fuck off too i'm a canadian what 1.00
00:51:37.040 do i know i'm trying to get over you say it's just like look look mexicans just because your 1.00
00:51:40.380 president is jewish doesn't mean you're allowed to live in america but like i do feel that we're
00:51:46.600 on the road to this and when i see re-migration i see people speaking of a solution to the real 0.77
00:51:52.340 problem and that seems to resonate with people it's it's not like they're here now oh shucks 0.80
00:51:57.740 well they gotta be here because they're here but in the future we'll stop them saying no no no just
00:52:03.480 just get rid of them and you can actually do it geographically it's not like they're they filtered 1.00
00:52:08.340 into the populace you can find hot spots where they all like every somali who's gotten here in 1.00
00:52:14.940 the past 10 years except for like maybe five percent of them are in like these few key areas 0.99
00:52:20.520 start with them and their families and their entire kid network build a fucking affinity 0.92
00:52:25.200 network through them and just get rid of them yeah yeah it's not it's actually not hard look 0.99
00:52:29.640 what you were able to do with covid you gained everyone in the government got a magic fucking
00:52:34.820 wand during covid didn't they and you you found all these ways to make new you started making as 0.72
00:52:41.560 many concentration camps as you possibly could for people you thought were infected with covid
00:52:45.880 you probably still have them
00:52:48.100 let's just use the 1.00
00:52:50.220 concentration camps that you built for me 0.90
00:52:52.260 you built concentration camps for me
00:52:54.700 FEMA could do this overnight
00:52:56.140 yeah
00:52:57.280 all I'm begging you is
00:52:59.300 you couldn't get me in the concentration camp 0.67
00:53:01.340 bear luck next time
00:53:02.500 in the meantime let's use it for these people
00:53:04.980 can we use it for the actual criminals
00:53:08.940 not people that didn't want to inject poison 1.00
00:53:11.000 in their fucking veins 1.00
00:53:11.780 and also 1.00
00:53:14.040 this is another article from Newsweek
00:53:17.700 and Biden is
00:53:19.660 responding to this now with the border crackdown
00:53:21.540 obviously. I believe it is
00:53:23.760 referring to the same poll
00:53:25.500 this might be a different poll but it says a recent poll
00:53:27.400 found that the majority
00:53:28.720 the majority of Hispanic people favor
00:53:31.540 a mass deportation of undocumented immigrants
00:53:33.660 living in the US illegally 1.00
00:53:35.060 and that is newsworthy
00:53:37.240 you've never heard that before really
00:53:38.880 a CBS News
00:53:41.140 YouGov poll found that the majority
00:53:43.360 of registered voters overall 62 percent would favor the government starting a new national 1.00
00:53:48.480 program to deport all undocumented immigrants currently living in the u.s 38 so they would
00:53:54.100 oppose it um so this seems to be uh the same poll i think actually no so the axios vibe survey by
00:54:01.760 hold on because it's this harris poll and so the interesting the harris poll is a broad study of
00:54:05.840 americans as in people i'm assuming people in america but the the cbs poll was specifically
00:54:12.780 registered voters so all americans regardless of voter registration it's 51 which is still a
00:54:20.520 majority but if you look at just voters it's 62 that's interesting because it shows that people
00:54:26.580 who are not registered to vote i wonder why are less in favor of being deported we're not going
00:54:33.400 to ask that group why why they're not registered to vote yeah that's so fucking funny um yeah so
00:54:41.120 Well, anyway, I don't need to go through the entire story here.
00:54:43.320 It is what it sounds like.
00:54:44.940 The majority of Spanish, figure out what you want to do with that information.
00:54:49.680 Yeah, look, I live in South Florida. 1.00
00:54:52.000 I mean, this is kind of the epicenter of the Hispanic part of America moving to the right. 1.00
00:54:56.860 I mean, Miami-Dade County, which is the most populous county in all of Florida. 0.98
00:55:01.440 You know, Ron DeSantis won that by double digits.
00:55:04.000 In his gubernatorial re-election in 2022, he won Miami-Dade County, which is a 70% Hispanic county.
00:55:09.260 He won it by 11 points. Marco Rubio, our senator here in Florida, won by 10 points.
00:55:14.000 And a lot of people look at that and they say, oh, it's Miami-Dade County. 1.00
00:55:16.940 It's just these Cubans. They're all conservative because they're fleeing the Castros and communism. 0.98
00:55:21.340 It's actually not true. So in Osceola County here in Florida, which is a suburb of Orlando, heavily Puerto Rican County,
00:55:28.340 Puerto Ricans historically a very, very liberal demographic here in the United States.
00:55:33.100 Osceola County, Florida actually voted for Ron DeSantis and Marco Rubio as well in 2022.
00:55:37.980 to but people will say ah yes the based hispanics yes yes i'm like well i mean remember the core 0.69
00:55:45.000 issue here is like why do you want these people gone like do you really care this is what leftists 0.99
00:55:49.460 will say to the leftists are correct where they're saying oh so all of a sudden you give a shit about 0.97
00:55:53.660 like bureaucratic rules i'm like i hear you um it's like oh you're you care about cops now i'm 0.97
00:55:59.840 like i i care about my interests so yeah it's like you know based hispanics so you got a good
00:56:04.860 chunk of hispanics who are agreeing with you but it's still like as a component of all hispanics
00:56:08.960 it's a smaller component than the component of the right wing within the within the white 0.99
00:56:13.480 population so if you just got rid of all hispanics including the based ones you would actually have 1.00
00:56:18.560 a more right-wing society right so this whole thing like oh again we need to form a coalition 0.99
00:56:22.920 and just keep the base ones no no all of them i don't care how base they are i don't care if
00:56:26.740 they're your friends go just go we don't need them this isn't their country yeah they feel that
00:56:32.000 they're losing these people have been on the side of naturalizing illegal immigrants for decades 0.75
00:56:38.900 for maybe half a century maybe even longer and they just that's why this is news because it just
00:56:43.620 started changing and this is what we were talking about before which is that they're they're just 0.96
00:56:48.220 coming over to our side that you guys are right like you know what i don't fucking need you 0.95
00:56:52.440 anymore you're fucking gone you change your mind five minutes ago what are you bringing to the 0.97
00:56:56.980 table nothing nothing but uh i guess you were right what are you gonna do unless you're reporting 1.00
00:57:03.220 your fucking family you can fuck off because all of these motherfucking hispanics who are saying 1.00
00:57:08.620 they're in favor of deporting undocumented immigrants start with your fucking family how 1.00
00:57:12.820 many of your family are over here right now that you're calling the cops on is it zero then you can 1.00
00:57:17.640 fucking go with them and you know what we're gonna i'm not gonna ask you to comment on this but i've 0.96
00:57:22.480 had to say this a few times because people get mad at me because my wife is chinese or she's 0.99
00:57:26.500 ethnically Chinese she was you know she immigrated to Canada when she was a toddler and was raised in
00:57:31.480 Toronto we met and married in Toronto but the like I say all the time my wife almost her entire
00:57:39.160 family with the exception of her sister are in an ethnic enclave in Toronto and if I had a choice 0.98
00:57:44.660 tomorrow I would deport my in-laws I wouldn't deport my wife because she's my wife and I think 0.71
00:57:48.820 that's the white man's right to take a wife but I mean the whole you're absolutely right you can't
00:57:56.200 just say oh i have this one guy that i really like it's like well i i've always advocated for
00:58:01.280 a system like if you personally want to vouch for one person like a one-to-one ratio go ahead and
00:58:06.240 vouch vouch for your best friend vouch for your wife vouch for vouch for your your son-in-law or
00:58:11.620 something right but you can't just vouch for an entire race because you know one cool guy it
00:58:17.840 doesn't work that way and when you vouch for somebody you need to be responsible for them
00:58:21.340 right if they commit a crime we should deport you both why not everyone gets one when you get to
00:58:26.060 keep and then maybe you don't need to use it maybe you can give it to something you know what no
00:58:30.620 they're non-transferable non-transferable yeah non-transferable has to be for someone so that
00:58:35.960 can be used for a wife that could be used for a best friend uh sidekick getting a chinese sidekick
00:58:42.340 is a great option look if you're gonna pick a sidekick he'd be samoan for sure because there's
00:58:48.700 like a few types of cool chinese guys too like there's like the chinese guy who works in an auto
00:58:53.620 garage there's a lot of varieties of cool chinese guys actually there's tons i mean most of them 0.68
00:58:59.220 aren't in north america is the sad thing there's loads of fucking cool chinese guys in china but 1.00
00:59:03.700 most chinese guys are not cool but i mean there are a lot of cool ones remember luke hang from 0.92
00:59:07.700 the first mortal combat movie there you go not not a real guy but still a cool archetype well
00:59:12.700 he's a man who did those things in real life just because they were in a movie doesn't make it less
00:59:17.460 real there okay no all right all right in i'll buy it he did so luke you're gonna use your voucher 0.99
00:59:23.780 for luke kang yeah you know what fuck my wife i was i watched blood sport for the first time in my 0.97
00:59:33.880 life like just a couple days ago and like that that that guy that chinese guy was a sidekick 1.00
00:59:39.960 yeah i he's mine his wife can fucking on delay as far as i'm concerned 0.75
00:59:44.660 just uh and this will be a stark contrast to what we just described but i'm looking at a 0.97
00:59:53.920 politico story here what's going on just across the way in politics uh have you heard about and
01:00:00.840 this is old news i know but we never talked about it you hear about this new uh leader that the
01:00:06.400 libertarians picked oh no chase oliver jesus i didn't see that in the notes these you just did
01:00:13.480 Oh that was in there, oh no.
01:00:16.300 Oliver is an anti-war activist
01:00:18.260 who has called for an end to the violence in Gaza
01:00:20.440 and describes it as a genocide.
01:00:22.640 He also supports free speech,
01:00:24.080 opposes government COVID mandates, 0.74
01:00:25.960 and self-describes as armed and gay. 0.56
01:00:32.500 Dave Smith, comedian from Legion of Skanks,
01:00:35.520 host of Part of the Problem.
01:00:37.380 I would say he's one of the most famous,
01:00:40.700 like open libertarians,
01:00:42.100 guys who strip call themselves libertarians not like sort of a michael malice who's adjacent but 0.92
01:00:47.860 he's an anarchist just you know you know they kind of talk about the same shit but like i'm a 0.99
01:00:52.020 libertarian i'm part of the libertarian party and he had to abandon it because of shit like this 0.99
01:00:57.660 so and the party rejected both donald trump you know because he's not a libertarian really but 0.96
01:01:05.160 also robert f kennedy jr who i think could have been a reasonable candidate he probably i think
01:01:11.060 was shopping around i mean yeah i mean i wouldn't i wouldn't personally have voted for rfk but if i
01:01:15.820 was to pin rfk to one of those three parties it'd be libertarian i mean he's already a pariah within
01:01:21.080 the democrat party and he doesn't fit in with the with the republicans he probably fits in better
01:01:25.380 with with the the lalbert's the lalbert's truly are a troll party because i remember let's just
01:01:34.200 set up who this guy is the libertarian party selected former senate candidate chase oliver 0.93
01:01:39.760 chase oliver now this is already the type of name that you don't want to have if you're a gay man 0.97
01:01:46.380 if you are trying to have sex with a woman chase oliver he's never tried that so i know because 0.98
01:01:53.560 look what they they it's like naming a kid jeeves what's he gonna do except become a butler 0.97
01:01:59.800 the selection of oliver who has described himself as armed and gay and whose third
01:02:07.720 party candidacy helped force a runoff
01:02:09.660 at the Georgia state race
01:02:11.100 came a day after Trump suggested he was the best
01:02:13.620 nominee for the party, drowning a
01:02:15.680 sustained course of booze
01:02:17.600 so after this
01:02:18.680 occurred, this guy was elected, this openly 0.73
01:02:21.580 gay man, the manifestation of 0.70
01:02:23.640 the libertarian meme 0.91
01:02:25.500 which was that, like, I want my
01:02:27.380 my gay neighbors 0.98
01:02:29.840 to use guns to defend their 0.99
01:02:31.620 pot plants
01:02:32.340 so like, they got that guy 0.97
01:02:35.620 they got the fucking jim garrison cartoon to come to life and no one was happy no one you know what 0.95
01:02:42.240 just just a quick tangent on the whole coalitional thinking thing this is where it gets you because 0.97
01:02:47.460 there's an enormous body of actual libertarian philosophy which is represented in a whole
01:02:52.640 handful of candidates but what you got was what you just said you got the i'm going to use my
01:02:57.180 ar-15 fully auto to defend my gay neighbor's pot plants the gay neighbor's pot plants is the 1.00
01:03:02.960 coalition because being gay and having pot plants is the dumbest most tangential shit to 0.99
01:03:08.780 libertarianism in reality but you put that in there so that you can have broad appeal so that 1.00
01:03:13.660 your party can grow and you get closer to winning an election but you've watered down watered it
01:03:17.800 down so much that you're a joke party now like maybe you never would have won an election but 1.00
01:03:22.120 at least you had principles now you have nothing you have a bunch of literal gays and potheads 1.00
01:03:26.980 like you know having butt sex at pork fest like that's all this is now let's drill down to that 1.00
01:03:32.260 because you had called attention to something Prudentialist had said yesterday that I thought 0.99
01:03:36.380 was so poignant because really the beating heart of that stream was talking about the pieces released
01:03:44.280 by Walt Bismarck and many others saying that the future is coalition building from the position of
01:03:50.560 the distant right we need to reach out to more friends we need to befriend the Brahmins we need
01:03:55.980 to defend and he's advocating for befriending gays we need more gays because they're based and we 1.00
01:04:02.000 need more based feminists, as if we haven't been there before. And Prudentialists, could you 1.00
01:04:07.200 summarize it? Because I don't want to do a disservice, but he did summarize it so pointedly
01:04:12.140 previously about coalitional building. Oh, right, right, right. So if you have a majority, right,
01:04:17.800 and you say we, or you have a plurality, but you need to turn the plurality into a majority,
01:04:22.080 you pull a couple of minority groups in, in order to create a majority so that you can win, right?
01:04:27.040 But in order to pull the minority groups in, you take the majority for granted and you have to start giving all of these concessions to the minority, usually, in fact, always to the extent that you are giving you are alienating and taking for granted the majority that put you on the map in the first place.
01:04:45.640 And the only thing that this that the best thing that can happen is you'll win the election with a watered down campaign and eight years down the line, the whole thing implodes because you've undercut your entire base in order to get there.
01:04:59.040 It never actually works in the long run if you are measuring success by by in terms of achieving the original stated goals and principles that the majority had in the first place.
01:05:10.040 so you have two choices you can win one election with a coalition and then destroy everything you 0.99
01:05:15.320 ever worked for or you can just not win this election but at least you keep your fucking skin 0.97
01:05:19.500 and there's they're like and if you don't believe me then show me a couple of examples 0.94
01:05:25.280 of coalitions actually working not winning an election but coalitions maintaining the actual
01:05:30.600 goals of the group in the long term and in the long term and not actually diluting them and
01:05:34.900 destroying because it all it actually always does and also if you have been following the libertarian
01:05:42.800 parties the actual regional parties um who all have like social media accounts their tweets and
01:05:49.760 this is what i was getting at before where they're trying to troll people by saying like yeah guess 0.92
01:05:54.540 what we are the gay party and you're gay for being a libertarian like insulting the people that were 0.96
01:06:00.500 upset even though they are libertarians 0.99
01:06:02.180 and so like he's libertarian
01:06:04.480 party of NH where is that
01:06:06.560 New Hampshire yeah so
01:06:08.500 you know the real account this isn't a parody
01:06:10.520 account it says there are
01:06:12.280 13 million grinder uses
01:06:14.520 in America there's only 750
01:06:16.440 thousand registered libertarians don't blame Chase
01:06:18.600 Oliver's don't blame Chase Oliver
01:06:20.240 for playing the game of democracy
01:06:22.460 I don't even know they're still 1.00
01:06:24.540 making so stupid like the gay 1.00
01:06:26.660 thing front and center 1.00
01:06:28.720 democracy itself
01:06:30.480 is fundamentally anti-libertarian there are no real serious libertarian thinkers who even agree 0.98
01:06:37.920 with the concept of democracy because it violates the nap like you it doesn't it's such a ridiculous 1.00
01:06:45.260 fucking thing to begin like we're the we're the real libertarian party we're gay well you're gay 1.00
01:06:49.080 but you're not really libertarian and you never work because you're a fucking democratic party 1.00
01:06:52.140 so the flip side of the non-aggression principle people think that's a cowardly principle it's like 0.98
01:06:57.940 i'm gonna do anything i'll let you do anything as long as you are not trespassing on my right
01:07:04.120 to something the flip side of that is saying that if i detect that you're being aggressive 0.87
01:07:08.040 i'm gonna shoot you first including including negative externalities yeah really like seriously
01:07:13.400 like there's a serious libertarian argument from a number of different camps that if you will like 0.95
01:07:17.680 for example pollute if you pollute and i live 10 miles from you and it pollutes the river where i 1.00
01:07:22.360 water my crops i'm full rights to walk and burn down your fucking barn and rape your daughter 1.00
01:07:26.900 straight up libertarian so like i mean that's that's my alma mater so that's why i try something 1.00
01:07:34.700 like jesus libertarian like no you understand this is rape libertarianism 0.93
01:07:39.940 this isn't what's getting elected what's getting elected is the gay pot libertarianism 0.91
01:07:51.180 It's pioneer libertarianism.
01:07:52.500 It's survival libertarianism.
01:07:55.280 Like, have you actually thought, you know what we could vote for?
01:07:57.780 We could vote for Mad Max Fury Road.
01:08:00.420 Yeah.
01:08:01.000 What if that was on the ballot?
01:08:02.840 Can we vote for Mad Max 2?
01:08:05.800 Okay, we'll vote for Mad Max 2.
01:08:07.880 Cool.
01:08:10.320 That's a bit too degenerate Fury Road for anything.
01:08:13.420 i guess there's just a couple bits of show news i wanted to get out of the way before we move on
01:08:21.820 to the next thing um because there'll be a few things i want to talk about but uh one i mentioned
01:08:27.360 before there's a new real secret coffee hours up on our patreon and our gum road uh the most
01:08:33.740 recent one is a two-parter because it was too long it was it's around three hours long so i had to
01:08:38.120 break it up but it was reviewing one of the walt bismarck articles we talked about which was in
01:08:44.260 response to another article written by an individual named anglo futurism otherwise known
01:08:49.520 as john arcto so it was a conflict review but uh john arcto even though i had some points of
01:08:57.200 disagreement his position was more like okay we we don't need to reach out to gays we don't need
01:09:02.820 define our success by how we integrate homosexual men into our party and while bismarck was like
01:09:08.740 opposing that um so you know shout outs to angle futurism for at least having that sort of practical
01:09:15.440 first principle um i also wanted to once again give a shout out to axios fitness coaching who
01:09:21.620 i work with and have nothing but good things to say about my arm is pretty much healed right now
01:09:26.880 so i'm back to doing all my arm related shit um just been doing too many squats if a man does too
01:09:33.280 many squats if a man does the idea of like leg day is that it has to be one day if you do two 0.96
01:09:40.180 leg days a week what kind of squats are you doing that your arms hurt no that's what i'm doing
01:09:44.500 squats because i couldn't do like bicep curls and shit like that so i've been like focusing 0.50
01:09:48.860 on lower bicep but man was not meant to do two leg days in a row so
01:09:54.780 i also wanted to give a shout out to our store good suffer that's good suffer.com
01:10:03.680 we're going to be coming out with a bunch of new merchandise new shirts recently including some
01:10:09.500 new stuff from j bird and so people go check that out there's some cool stuff over there
01:10:13.680 the official blood satellite merch the only official merch is there i've been working with
01:10:18.920 the designer of the last
01:10:21.600 hat run we did
01:10:22.680 Micah Paul and he's got some exciting
01:10:25.400 new stuff coming up we're going to be doing an entire new
01:10:27.560 small batch run of hats
01:10:29.620 that are going to be if you can believe it
01:10:31.400 10 times cooler than the first one so
01:10:33.460 I'm just letting people know to keep an eye out for that
01:10:35.640 I'll let everyone know when they launch
01:10:37.320 also I wanted to
01:10:39.780 lead into the next crimes chat
01:10:41.700 that's going to be coming
01:10:43.580 up right now it's submitted
01:10:45.240 by a good friend of mine
01:10:47.840 and a friend of the show he's got a name that he uses on telegram i don't know if he really wants
01:10:54.200 me to say because it is a silly name but he's the former host of him and i talk quite often and he
01:11:03.860 recorded this at my request because this is a follow-up to the last crimes chat from the last
01:11:10.260 episode uh from avald who was giving his european perspective his german perspective
01:11:17.200 on what's been going on with the far right wave that's been sweeping europe right now
01:11:22.360 the big news that the far right is winning he would say well are they really winning here's
01:11:26.480 the inside baseball what's going on there um my good friend he he has another perspective about
01:11:33.340 why right-wing nationalism is being permitted in europe right now and i'll let him explain it so
01:11:41.320 here is the crimes chat
01:11:43.900 so i think it's pretty clear that war footing is coming to europe i don't think it necessarily
01:12:00.280 it means we're going to be going to war but i do think we are going to be moving into the footing
01:12:05.560 that could mean we could go to a cold war status that means we could be um you know going into
01:12:11.560 something a little bit hotter and i think it tilts the table quite significantly i actually
01:12:16.460 don't really want to talk about war i think war is kind of yes what it is people give their
01:12:21.280 opinions left right and center on it it doesn't change anything the people in power will move
01:12:26.060 people and you know things will happen now what does this present white people i was chewing this
01:12:32.960 over the other day and the thing is is wars are won and fought by white people pick a special
01:12:38.920 forces group that's actually moderately successful i said a few years ago there's certain things that
01:12:45.580 the west is doing that's incompatible with a war footing so prime example energy you can't do net
01:12:54.440 zero, those solar-powered Humvees are just not going to cut the mustard. Next thing, DEI.
01:13:02.840 It's all well and good having somebody in HR, some Dinduisha who can, you know, tick a couple 1.00
01:13:09.020 of boxes and then follow procedures. It's entirely another thing we're having someone, you know, 1.00
01:13:14.680 who's, let's just say, a diversity hire commanding soldiers. They're going to have to make a number
01:13:21.360 of changes to get people back on board. Like I said, war footing, not war. I think we're about
01:13:28.180 to see a number of things changing in the West. I think white people are about to get a seat back 0.77
01:13:32.720 at the table just because they have to. There's no other options at all apart from giving us a
01:13:40.020 seat back at the table. Nuclear power plants, oil, coal and gas, these things are probably going to
01:13:45.260 fire up. Now people are going to probably try and import a lot of that for America. Can't import
01:13:48.900 that shit for Russia anymore. So the industries might start firing up here. You can't really get 1.00
01:13:54.120 your uranium for Bikini Faso anymore if you're France. So there's a few things that might
01:13:58.420 change there. Our guys are going to have opportunities as far as I can tell. The other
01:14:02.520 things, military, armaments, building weapons, building tanks. I'm pretty sure if anybody pays
01:14:08.800 attention to contracts in places like Norfolk and stuff like that, they're going to be seeing
01:14:14.440 and lots of long-term contracts have been getting dished out.
01:14:17.440 I think there's something that people didn't see coming,
01:14:22.060 and that was the Israel-Palestine war
01:14:26.320 and the effect that that's actually had.
01:14:28.060 I think it's actually upset a lot of people in the West.
01:14:31.380 It's taken all pretense of tabula rasa 0.99
01:14:34.560 and hit it with a mash hammer, it's fucking gone. 0.99
01:14:37.460 The idea that these people, that they've been important, 0.99
01:14:40.320 they're just like us, they're fantastic.
01:14:43.480 Don't you know if you take a Somalian and you give him a ping pong table,
01:14:47.040 he becomes just as British as you. 0.97
01:14:48.920 Hell, he's even more British as you and more French because he chose to be here. 1.00
01:14:52.980 That shit's all gone. 1.00
01:14:54.260 Like everybody in power, they fucking know now. 1.00
01:14:56.860 They literally know looking at what's happening still ongoing with the protests 0.99
01:15:01.220 that these guys have unified as a bloc.
01:15:03.840 Anybody with two brain cells to rub together to create a sparky intelligence
01:15:07.220 is going to know that whole paradigm is being shifted.
01:15:10.680 One of the things that occurred to me is this whole thing is a little bit of a trap
01:15:13.420 that we've been seeing across Europe.
01:15:15.680 The surgeons to the right,
01:15:18.100 I'm not somebody that believes in the organic power
01:15:21.200 of the people to overthrow things
01:15:23.500 and change all that kind of stuff.
01:15:24.900 It all feels like Kabuki theatre to me.
01:15:27.240 I think there was multiple factions vying for power.
01:15:31.620 They might all have the same hat,
01:15:33.580 small one at that sometimes,
01:15:35.160 but I don't believe it's a uni party as such.
01:15:38.560 I believe there was multiple factions at play.
01:15:41.320 i think with the the factions that are at play here they are going to try and use the right
01:15:50.180 so what you can do is you can utilize the resurgence of the right for a create a stabilizing
01:15:55.620 effect so what you're going to get is a lot of parties they probably are going to actually start
01:15:59.980 pushing for less migration we've already seen the early starts to this i think they've now got a
01:16:04.840 pretty solid cassius belly to cut back that's what causes but like however you pronounce it
01:16:09.680 but i think they wanted to anyway now i'm going to use a couple little examples of stuff from
01:16:15.440 scotland the science seemed to be for a long time that you could trans a toddler and it was a good
01:16:22.100 thing the science changed with something called the cash report and the government changed on a
01:16:27.300 pivot well pivoted immediately i think they were changing to something they wanted to do they
01:16:32.780 wanted to get away from the trans stuff at the same time they pivoted away from net zero now 0.98
01:16:38.020 scotland is probably the most cucked fucking place in the world apart for canada 1.00
01:16:42.580 probably more but i think what we're going to be seeing is if they use the right they can provide a 0.99
01:16:50.580 a sensible balance for people to um you know bring back faith and trust and democracy and
01:16:58.500 all that good stuff look we gave you what we want and they can use it as well for get ready all the
01:17:02.900 the criminals who are the criminals for people they don't like so they can they can do a number
01:17:08.160 of different things under this rubric they can they can get rid of all the the most undesirable
01:17:13.920 people that they've imported and they can also um cut down the numbers put people that they trust
01:17:20.680 in power and restore faith in the failing democracies of the west it it fixes the problem
01:17:28.020 in the meantime they can keep the migration still high they can just tail it back to where it was
01:17:31.980 four or five years ago it doesn't change any of the ultimate plans any of the ultimate destinies
01:17:36.400 for europe what it does is it takes the pressure cooker situation away it redirects people in the
01:17:42.320 meantime over the next four or five years with the population satisfied they can just 0.62
01:17:46.700 start rearming start those recruitment ads get white boys back in there all these kind of things 0.58
01:17:53.640 once they put a bunch of these like immediate problems back in the box it allows them to
01:18:00.060 pivot back to the great game and i think people are getting too excited about this
01:18:06.260 renaissance across europe i mean i think there's something there i think there's something for us
01:18:10.540 to gain i think we're back on we're back you know we're back on the menu essentially but it doesn't
01:18:15.920 change the fact that they're not doing it for you they're doing it for them it's a win-win for the
01:18:21.440 system you know trump gets back in the europeans get back in all across europe and all the good
01:18:28.240 europeans across europe they've got le pen and all these kind of people and people are going to
01:18:32.500 think this is a major victory and it's not it is going to be a kosher form of right our guys will 0.93
01:18:39.200 detool the same way as they detooled with um what was the name of that fucking zamor in france our 0.54
01:18:45.400 guys are zamor he's based zamor um and they'll do it most of our guys will do it we've seen how they 0.83
01:18:51.720 fracture the right wing fractures every 10 seconds it's like you know it's almost like we don't have
01:18:56.580 first principles you know are people first um so yeah anyway thank you very much
01:19:02.000 this could be like a developing thing that we do hearing something that we should probably do is
01:19:15.380 hearing from europeans on european issues not just some canadians reading the news saying oh
01:19:22.020 What's going on over there? 0.99
01:19:24.320 You know, what the fuck do we know? 1.00
01:19:27.080 So if there's any other Europeans listening from, 0.99
01:19:31.940 and they should probably be in Europe,
01:19:33.380 not just probably the European diaspora,
01:19:34.960 but people, we're talking from France,
01:19:37.220 we're talking from Romania even,
01:19:38.980 let us know and submit something to me on Telegram
01:19:42.920 or through our email, bloodsatellite at protonmail.com.
01:19:47.220 Moving on, and we might end up cutting this episode
01:19:50.000 shorter than usual so i'm just going to try and get to the next couple before we get to the book
01:19:54.040 section but i i saw this really fascinating article here group chats rule the world and
01:20:02.960 we've talked about this before about how everyone calls little group chats echo chambers and we need
01:20:08.060 to break people out of these echo chambers but i think the previous social media model of an
01:20:13.560 individual broadcasting of the world first of all that doesn't exist anymore but second of all it
01:20:18.180 only really existed for a very brief amount of time and maybe even only with twitter but the
01:20:23.800 trend from for online communities has become smaller and smaller with higher and higher walls
01:20:29.200 and we're seeing something like a salon culture spring up and arguably that's been going on
01:20:35.260 forever but i think the walls are higher than ever before there's more and more people who just
01:20:40.700 filter everything all their news all their gossip everything through the community and i think um
01:20:49.040 so no one's just plugged in to a feed people are people tend to be leaving feeds more than ever 1.00
01:20:55.240 before because the feeds are garbage you know algorithmic programming is fucking shit you watch 1.00
01:21:01.080 one video from something you hate and now your entire feed is things you hate yep yep twitter 0.99
01:21:07.340 even does this i i like i saw one tweet from like will stancil and now it's all will stancil's
01:21:12.980 friends on my feet i don't subscribe to any of these people i've just got like left anarchists 0.61
01:21:18.560 complaining about people complaining about furiosa or shit like that
01:21:23.420 this isn't the experience that i want so this is uh from saram krishnan um what the sigma 0.96
01:21:34.140 You know what? Fuck it. Put a bullet in my head. But let's just read it anyway. It says most of the interesting conversations in tech now happen in private group chats. WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, small invite only Discord groups. Discord could probably even be said to be the first big push for this. 1.00
01:21:54.540 um being part of the right group chat can feel like having a peek at the kitchen of a restaurant
01:21:59.440 but instead of food messy ideas and gossip fly around in real time salons and groups have always
01:22:04.500 existed existed but why the recent shift to private discourse and he gives a few reasons here
01:22:10.420 i think these are true but i think the history of this reaches back further but he says the great
01:22:16.660 culture wars of 2020 meant people especially in tech weren't comfortable sharing their views in
01:22:21.620 public uh two covid meant we all had to shelter indoors and turned online for community three
01:22:27.960 many of the big internet trends of recent years crypto and ai started or found homes in small
01:22:33.560 online communities first i know that's true in crypto most of the crypto space is run by these
01:22:39.080 weird little chats um and i know like i'd heard stories from some of my friends in finance during
01:22:47.320 covid because no one knew what the fuck was going on covid was breaking everything everywhere and so
01:22:52.800 what you saw spring up were these like zoom calls and these private chats were like finance guys
01:22:58.400 were getting together saying okay what do you know what what do i know let's just figure out what
01:23:02.620 how we can make it so we don't all go broke right and then over time these started to snowball
01:23:08.340 into these like weekly happenings where you get bigger and bigger names come in but these were
01:23:14.460 these were not public they weren't even online they're just like zoom calls where like policy
01:23:18.800 makers would just pop in along with kind of low level guys and that was just in finance so imagine
01:23:23.620 that happening everywhere because i assume it was and it was also happening you know on a lower level
01:23:29.000 in marketing too i knew people trying to like when people don't know what to do they host salons
01:23:35.380 when the world's falling apart they'll say let me get 15 guys together let's talk about what the
01:23:39.820 fuck's going on because no one wants to do it on the timeline anymore that's for certain 0.93
01:23:45.040 he says here uh time and time again i've seen group chat conversations act as the memetic 0.99
01:23:52.840 upstream of mainstream opinion like a stand-up comic a comic workshopping he's set in a small
01:23:59.720 club people trial content and ideas find bonds and you often see narratives and ideas discussed
01:24:04.900 make the jump to x and then to mainstream discourse i think that's true and that was
01:24:11.160 even true with memes where you know back in the day memes would start on 4chan or any of the chan
01:24:17.400 boards and then the end the ultimate destination was like ebombs world and then facebook but there
01:24:23.660 was this filtration process all along the way but none of these people were making memes the people
01:24:28.160 who made the memes were in these like really these tight-knit communities that were a bit more
01:24:34.140 hostile to outsiders and you know i'm talking about 4chan here it's not like it was this
01:24:39.160 private group but for you know there was a time when 4chan was seen as a place where regular
01:24:43.940 people didn't want to go but they're the ones who are making things and they're making things on
01:24:49.280 something awful so i think this has been a model that's been defining the internet for a long time
01:24:54.940 um so what do we think about that does that ring true to you at all yeah yeah definitely
01:25:00.680 yeah and so he says um which leads the question what makes one of these groups work um he says
01:25:09.300 the best ones are a forever dinner party good friends a conversation happening in perpetuity
01:25:14.180 they share uh some of the things below says gardener not carpenter strong and fair central
01:25:20.740 leader who sets the tone and enforces the rules um number two is cooling rods and nuclear reactors
01:25:27.700 says cooling rods are using nuclear reactors to control the rate of reaction every group chat
01:25:33.760 usually has one or two people that like to talk a lot i'm just thinking of our own right now and
01:25:38.680 a couple names spring up they are critical you need the provocateurs who inject new ideas
01:25:43.380 consistently however almost all of them have a tendency to dominate these groups this is where
01:25:48.460 cooling rods come in um this is someone who can just shut them down like you need you need power
01:25:55.840 users but you need like two other cooling users to calm them the fuck down and again if people
01:26:01.700 are thinking of our chat right now you might you might actually see this if like any chat that
01:26:06.560 you've been a part of that is successful it's not even a natural thing it's not like this is how
01:26:11.580 human beings necessarily exist in the real world but the chat dynamic you don't have a power user
01:26:18.520 in your friend group a guy who just never shuts up because he wouldn't be in your friend group
01:26:22.920 but a chat is an interesting dynamic because you you pop in and out so a guy can be talking for
01:26:30.640 hours and hours you pop in you but if you're hanging out with someone and if they never
01:26:33.960 stop talking throw them in the bonfire but in this in this case you actually need these people
01:26:39.620 and you can't kill them because then everything dies um he says the gravitational pull of a few 0.98
01:26:45.860 topics it's common for a group chat to suffer from audience capture and start circling the
01:26:50.440 same topics incessantly this is where variety comes in you need a consistent injection new
01:26:56.320 ideas themes and members into the mix anyway he's just going through a few things here but um and
01:27:03.400 we talked about the emancipation of authorship that book a while ago it's like even just being
01:27:08.240 in these chats sometimes by you speaking up you could actually influence the discourse in more
01:27:15.720 ways than you could ever imagine yeah for sure if you just find yourself in there you don't
01:27:20.860 actually need to publish anything you could actually get the ear of someone and now you're
01:27:24.960 you might be affecting public policy yeah you know what just as that that bit about um about uh 0.53
01:27:32.980 fuck what was it just we mentioned a minute ago i lost anyways i made a point that you said that
01:27:40.680 you really like and i could i thought i got it from you i remember i didn't get from you i got 0.94
01:27:44.220 from a random guy in a volunteerist group chat so the point is is that this is what i'm talking
01:27:49.800 like there's maybe 15 guys in those comments and i pulled his comment gave it to you you loved it 0.98
01:27:55.540 now it's on our show yeah this is the this is the point like this shit spreads you don't really know 0.76
01:27:59.960 how it's going to affect people yeah and on that topic and this is why i wanted to start with that 0.88
01:28:03.460 because it leads into this this video that i watch and i'll include some clips here but um there's
01:28:10.540 this guy that everyone's
01:28:12.500 probably heard of and I just figured out about
01:28:14.680 but it's
01:28:15.720 the video was called Reddit is
01:28:18.480 a PSYOP and the creator is
01:28:20.120 Flesh Simulator
01:28:21.480 and this guy is a great guy
01:28:24.340 you would love this guy he's got a good
01:28:26.340 few conspiracy videos
01:28:27.900 but the title is Reddit's a PSYOP
01:28:30.820 and you hear that people say that all 0.98
01:28:32.480 the fucking time but what do they really 0.97
01:28:34.420 mean and I'll briefly summarize the video here 0.97
01:28:36.460 because it's a lot deeper than
01:28:38.420 you would think at the outset
01:28:39.600 But it has to do with AI. So everyone has heard the news that there's certain AI constructs that
01:28:46.860 are being fed information from Reddit. Reddit just hooks right into them. So it's building
01:28:53.140 an artificial intelligence made from Reddit posts. Well, guess what? Reddit just made a big deal with
01:28:58.240 a mysterious AI company that wants to use Reddit's data to train its algorithms. That means the AI
01:29:03.460 company will have access to millions of posts and comments made by Reddit users every day.
01:29:08.220 The AI company is paying Reddit a lot of money for this privilege.
01:29:11.860 Around $60 million per year, according to some sources.
01:29:14.920 Why would they do that?
01:29:15.940 Well, because Google had their own AI.
01:29:19.260 And the controversy was that people were submitting questions to AI as they would a search engine.
01:29:25.660 And it was coughing up insane answers. 1.00
01:29:30.040 Can cockroaches live in your penis? 1.00
01:29:31.960 Absolutely. 1.00
01:29:32.700 It's totally normal, too. 1.00
01:29:33.960 Usually, over the course of a year, five to ten cockroaches will crawl into your penis hole while you are asleep. 0.99
01:29:38.880 This is how they got the name Cockroach. 1.00
01:29:41.240 It was like telling people to kill themselves. 1.00
01:29:43.720 It was saying, like, fucking beavers were made of lead. 1.00
01:29:47.280 You know? 1.00
01:29:48.020 Just nonsense, right?
01:29:49.760 Because it's just repeating memes. 1.00
01:29:51.300 Like, you feed Reddit information, and it's going to come out insane and gay, of course. 0.79
01:29:56.780 But some people think that that's just a weird, random thing that happened. 0.64
01:30:01.540 Like, why would they do that?
01:30:02.520 so he goes the flesh simulator he goes into the history of um there was this uh reddit end of
01:30:10.620 year survey that they had to take down and uh the reason was they said something they shouldn't have
01:30:18.720 said they released some data that they shouldn't have released and the data was you know the most
01:30:22.900 popular cities in america it was like concentrated cities for reddit users reddit power users even
01:30:30.260 and it was like this it turns out the number one was this like weird military base
01:30:35.540 in 2014 reddit's year-end blog post had to be taken down and edited after it turns out they
01:30:44.700 didn't exactly vet the analytics data for accidentally including the truth now this post
01:30:51.540 has long since been deleted presumably for totally legitimate and completely unrelated reasons but
01:30:57.500 Thankfully, we can find the original version on the Internet Archive.
01:31:01.120 Well, until that gets shut down, too, at least.
01:31:04.440 Most Reddit-addicted city with over 100,000 visitors?
01:31:08.200 Huh, Eglin Air Force Base.
01:31:09.840 Well, I mean, that makes sense. It's an Air Force Base.
01:31:11.700 I'm sure they're, you know, all on Reddit a lot.
01:31:13.540 I'm adding this line because of the people who were treating this like a gotcha
01:31:16.300 last time I tried to post a video on this stuff.
01:31:18.300 Anyway, hang on a second.
01:31:20.020 How many people are there at Eglin?
01:31:22.820 2,448?
01:31:25.180 And wait a second.
01:31:27.100 Most red-addicted city with more than how many visitors?
01:31:31.620 100,000?
01:31:34.000 That's at least...
01:31:38.920 97,000.
01:31:41.440 Too many visitors!
01:31:43.640 So, what kind of stuff goes on at Eglin?
01:31:46.820 Let's take a look at some of the organizations there.
01:31:49.700 Eglin is home to the 688th Cyberspace Wing,
01:31:52.560 the 690th Cyberspace Operations Group
01:31:54.840 and the 692nd Cyberspace Operations Squadron.
01:31:58.380 Then as part of the Air Force Test Center,
01:32:00.600 96th Test Wing,
01:32:02.620 there is the 96th Cyberspace Test Group,
01:32:05.240 including the 47th and 48th Cyberspace Test Squadrons.
01:32:08.900 Like the number one,
01:32:10.300 the place that made the most post,
01:32:11.540 and everyone's like, 0.97
01:32:11.960 well, what the fuck's that about? 0.99
01:32:12.860 They're like, nothing, nothing. 0.98
01:32:15.100 But it turned out that there was,
01:32:17.960 there's a lot of weird experiments.
01:32:19.100 There's a lot of like weird conversations
01:32:20.800 that happen on Reddit,
01:32:21.660 gas lighting um you know the mandela effect stuff where you'll see in communities like people will
01:32:29.060 claim an event never happened for some reason and just to see if they could build a consensus
01:32:34.420 around it right and and and there's been some examples of this and he goes in the video
01:32:39.720 so then you realize like okay what is the circuit here the circuit is ai giving answers to random
01:32:49.100 people now they wanted to feed in reddit because i think reddit's just a balanced leveled
01:32:56.460 communication platform for regular people but this was just a roundabout way for the 0.93
01:33:03.260 fucking cia and the intelligence community to influence reddit so then reddit could influence 0.87
01:33:09.900 ai so what was really happening is the cia is controlling what is the truth for artificial 0.99
01:33:15.400 intelligence right and so people think well it seems kind of stupid that you would let reddit
01:33:21.120 become the main feed for this well no once you realize that the experiment was actually to see
01:33:26.720 how can we socially engineer reddit how can you like make up alternative histories brainwash
01:33:32.860 people and gaslight them and then make that into reality through an ai which people implicitly
01:33:39.480 trust because they think the ai is smarter than any human being like it can only say the truth
01:33:45.100 but this was an experiment to see if we could redefine the truth so and that's what interested
01:33:50.580 me about the whole topic of these digital salons which is like this is kind of the only way to
01:33:57.400 combat that it's a filtration system that i think it's the only sort of filtration system that could
01:34:02.940 probably beat the cia communicating to everyone through ai because we're getting to the point
01:34:09.880 where you no one's going to trust ai at all because they're just aware that it's just the
01:34:16.440 lies told to them fed back to well i mean public public ai like nobody's going to trust ai that's
01:34:21.500 coming from google or from from open or from any of these other companies yeah well once you
01:34:26.720 introduce the p once you introduce the concept of like this circuit where the lie can be introduced
01:34:32.260 from an unpredictable angle i think everything is just off off the table at that point it's like
01:34:39.380 wait why am i even trusting this oh it's it's all up to the data that's fed do i trust that's what
01:34:44.460 i mean sorry that's what i should have said that that's what i mean is like you can't trust ai if
01:34:48.400 ai is just an amalgamation of the data set but if the data do they want to say oh the data we try
01:34:52.880 to pick a broad data set no you fucking handpicked it specifically to change the narrative so i can't
01:34:58.040 trust any any ai where the the data set is opaque you know if somebody if my adversary is picking 0.95
01:35:05.120 the data set why on earth would i trust that yeah it's such a strange again it's a process where
01:35:12.180 it's like it's so far from like we're going to make an artificial intelligence it's like
01:35:16.540 no we're manufacturing consent for people and those people are being conglomerated in the ai
01:35:22.940 and then fed back to the people like it's such a more twisted version than we're going to create
01:35:27.660 a super intelligence well how you do that is like if you model that off of people who've been lied
01:35:32.920 too yeah and then the same neural net technology is probably being used to generate the posts on
01:35:38.600 social media and reddit as well so it's it's all incestuous at this point this is the thing that
01:35:43.540 we re-raised the flag on this 18 months ago i think i was sitting in this chair like two
01:35:49.540 christmases ago talking about this with in terms of mid-journey and uh stable diffusion that you're
01:35:56.480 eventually going to reach a situation where there are multiple layers of different actors all using
01:36:01.240 ai feeding into ai and some of them are doing it unwittingly and you're going to end up with just
01:36:05.600 an absolute mud pit of garbage everywhere and you can't trust anything and yeah here we go 0.94
01:36:13.020 let's fucking go and you know what this is a lot of people will say this feels like the moments 0.98
01:36:20.560 before like we break the sound barrier into some new hyper travel you know this is our approach 0.99
01:36:27.600 the singularity as Ray Kurzweil would say this could also be interpreted as the final death gasps
01:36:34.700 of civilization if you wanted to view it from the perspective that we just gave that's so much more
01:36:41.120 likely and that it ties into this book that I read recently and this is a book that I'd had on
01:36:49.620 my list for quite some time and it was highly recommended and a lot of people have read this
01:36:54.960 already but it kept getting shuffled to the back of the line because over time we were reading more
01:37:00.660 books that had to do with lost civilizations and archaeology and the collapse of civilizations
01:37:07.420 this one the one i'm talking about is the collapse of complex civilizations by joseph a tainter
01:37:13.240 a lot of people love this book but i'm like ah well we talked about
01:37:17.000 rome we talked about the mongols we've done our investigations in history like
01:37:21.160 is it's just going to repeat the same things and i wish i'd read this earlier because i absolutely
01:37:27.640 love this book and there was a lot more in it than i gave it credit for at the outset there's a lot
01:37:34.120 of examples in this and a lot of detail that has been given and it ties into what we're just
01:37:40.000 talking about which is that it's when people talk about the collapse of complex societies
01:37:44.760 the operative word is complex
01:37:47.080 and it seems to be the complexity itself
01:37:50.600 that leads to it
01:37:51.620 and we had discussed
01:37:52.740 the Bronze Age collapse
01:37:55.760 I believe it was 1177 by Eric Klein
01:37:59.380 and his description was
01:38:01.900 of the Bronze Age
01:38:02.940 the area around Egypt
01:38:05.120 what caused that collapse
01:38:06.700 because it was a complex system
01:38:08.740 interlocked with trade
01:38:10.340 and relationships
01:38:11.800 and communication for the time
01:38:13.680 and it was actually it wasn't one thing that caused the collapse because some people say oh
01:38:20.220 it was an invasion of the sea peoples or it was earthquakes or it was famine the problem was it
01:38:29.340 was actually all of them together because to destroy a complex society you need a complex
01:38:36.960 sequence of events because any one thing a complex society can usually overcome a complex society
01:38:43.540 can overcome a famine it can overcome uh an enemy or or a conquest so it's never one thing you
01:38:50.540 actually need quite a few things but um he makes the argument in the book that the the complexity
01:38:58.120 and the demands of a complex system the demands for energy make it a bit more susceptible to
01:39:04.400 internal problems what i focused on in the collapse book was how complexity grows to solve
01:39:12.520 problems or to take advantage of opportunities and complexity always has an economic cost
01:39:20.600 uh as i said we mostly pay for it today through energy through fossil fuels so we're largely
01:39:25.720 unaware of that but the economic cost is still there and as the complexity of a society increases
01:39:33.240 it comes to cost more and more per capita and in past societies we saw this increasing to the point
01:39:40.440 where complexity was simply no longer feasible i'll just start with his quote here it says
01:39:48.280 many of course prefer to believe that modern civilization with its scientific and technological
01:39:53.640 capacity its energy resources and its knowledge of economics and history should be able to survive
01:40:00.280 whatever crisis ancient and simpler societies found insurmountable but how firm is this belief
01:40:07.320 many persons who have had some awareness of history no doubt harbored the suspicion
01:40:11.000 that civilization can die because it's already died once. A society has collapsed because what
01:40:18.480 is a collapse? When people think of a collapse, they think of, you know, fallout. They think of
01:40:23.500 the road by Cormac McCarthy. They think of like a total decimation of the resources and people
01:40:28.260 are wandering. Really, it's just like the Wild West. That's what we think about when we think
01:40:32.680 collapse the wild west but gray but um he redefines collapse in a way that i think is more practical
01:40:40.640 and this is the one i'm going to use going forward he says a society has collapsed when it displays
01:40:45.220 a rapid significant loss of an established level of socio-political complexity to qualify as an
01:40:51.800 instance of collapse a society must have been at or developing towards a level of complexity for more
01:40:58.160 than one or two generations. If you read physics or if you read biology, you'll see complexity used
01:41:05.620 in different ways. I use complexity to mean, as I've suggested, two things. The first is
01:41:13.000 differentiation and specialization in structure and in function or behavior. What this means is
01:41:20.560 more parts and more kinds of parts as societies become more complex. The second is increasing
01:41:29.060 integration and control of behavior, so that as a society grows to have more parts and more kinds
01:41:35.820 of parts, there has to be mechanisms that bind those together to function as a whole, to make
01:41:41.220 a system. Without integration, without organization, you don't have a system. You simply have an
01:41:46.380 assemblage of parts the demise of the carolingian empire thus is not a case of collapse merely an
01:41:54.600 unsuccessful attempt at nation building an empire building he says a society that has collapsed is
01:42:01.780 suddenly smaller less differentiated and heterogeneous and characterized by fewer
01:42:07.460 specialized parts it displays less social differentiation and is able to exercise less
01:42:13.420 control over the behavior of its members is able at the same time to command smaller surpluses or
01:42:19.400 offer fewer benefits to membership and is less capable of providing subsistence it may decompose
01:42:26.140 to some of the constituent building blocks like states or ethnic groups or villages out of which
01:42:31.620 it was created so that's the way i like to view collapse it's like a step down a collapse doesn't
01:42:37.420 mean there's nothing there even though that has happened with some empires but it's more like
01:42:41.840 you're broken down into the component parts which is actually what happened after the fall of the
01:42:46.400 roman empire uh you had the people kind of regress into towns and villages and diasporas but you know
01:42:53.200 they they kind of came back and sometimes kept living in the ruins sometimes but anyway i don't
01:42:58.800 know what i've never heard it described that way but yeah it's like people conflate collapse with
01:43:03.020 like extinction but it's exactly what it is collapse just means it's not collapse of the
01:43:08.680 species is collapse of the civilization like the cultures and the mores and the practices and the
01:43:13.360 institutions that's what collapses it's there's not nothing left there's just a different thing
01:43:17.220 that's simpler and smaller yeah it's like you could live in a nation and maybe collapse means
01:43:21.740 you just revert back to city states and towns and villages and then maybe you build back up again
01:43:27.280 but it's just like a step down in complexity which is what i think will likely happen in canada
01:43:33.000 because our current complex interlocking of provinces
01:43:37.240 just seems unsustainable.
01:43:38.000 Totally unsustainable, yeah.
01:43:39.540 But that's why people are talking about
01:43:41.100 fracturing the United States.
01:43:42.980 Like the United States would collapse,
01:43:45.240 but it would still be the states.
01:43:46.960 There would still be Texas
01:43:47.840 and maybe new relationships would be brokered,
01:43:49.840 but collapse doesn't mean that America becomes a crater.
01:43:54.960 And he says,
01:43:55.840 even simple societies can lose
01:43:57.520 an established level of complexity
01:43:59.200 just as great empires.
01:44:01.220 like sedentary horticulturists may become mobile foragers and lose the socio-political trappings
01:44:08.180 of village life a region under organized under a central chiefly chieftain administration may
01:44:14.900 lose its hierarchical umbrella and revert to independent feuding villages a group of forager
01:44:21.360 the foragers themselves may be distressed by environmental deterioration and then just go
01:44:27.100 their separate ways entirely these are cases of collapse no less than the end of rome and no less
01:44:32.180 significant for their respective populations and he gives a couple examples here just because people
01:44:38.580 always think of rome and rome is a fantastic example but there's so many examples and i'm
01:44:43.840 going to get into a couple here there's one that i love from africa that i'd never heard of before
01:44:48.040 but he says here like the harapian or indus valley civilization existed in northwestern india
01:44:54.520 perhaps as early as 2400 BC it was apparently dominated by two major cities both were established
01:45:00.900 according to similar designs a fortified citadel on the western side with civic and religious
01:45:06.760 buildings and a lower urban zone with standardized streets yet by roughly 1750 BC this regional
01:45:14.600 uniformity and centralized control had broken down in urban centers the standardization of
01:45:20.800 street frontages declined, brick work
01:45:23.040 was less careful, bricks from older
01:45:24.860 buildings were reused in new ones,
01:45:27.200 pottery kilns became for the
01:45:28.860 first time built within city
01:45:30.740 walls, expressive art became
01:45:32.860 simpler, hordes of
01:45:34.800 jewelry were stashed away, groups of
01:45:36.760 unburied corpses were left lying in the
01:45:38.740 streets, and you saw the
01:45:40.740 slow decline that way by its
01:45:42.700 markers.
01:45:44.680 The Minoan civilization
01:45:46.400 is another example. The Minoan civilization
01:45:48.720 of Krait was the first
01:45:50.720 in europe the earliest palaces on the island were built soon after 2000 bc they were thereafter
01:45:56.840 repeatedly destroyed by earthquakes and up until the final collapse they were each time rebuilt
01:46:02.740 more splendidly than before the minoans possessed advanced knowledge of architecture engineering
01:46:08.520 drainage and hydraulics the mycean civilization of mainland greece became a serious trade competitor
01:46:14.640 security declined as militarism increased by 1380 bc the cretian palaces were finally destroyed
01:46:22.140 and then most were not rebuilt minoan civilization collapsed political economic and
01:46:27.480 administrative centralization declined and again aside from rome the hopewell complex developed
01:46:34.960 or developed in the last one or two centuries bc and the first four centuries a.d
01:46:39.960 in the Great Lakes Rivian area of the Midwest.
01:46:44.260 Hopewell is distinguished by such features
01:46:45.900 as the construction of large earthworks
01:46:48.120 requiring mobilization and coordination of labor.
01:46:52.080 By perhaps 400 AD,
01:46:53.840 the regional constellation of localized Hopewellian societies
01:46:56.780 had everywhere collapsed.
01:46:58.540 The succeeding late Woodland period
01:47:00.540 is marked by a curtailment in trade,
01:47:03.200 mortuary ceremonialism, public construction, and complexity.
01:47:07.260 So you see these things start to decline in complexity,
01:47:09.680 even represented in the art and their great public works um now i love this one this one is so cool
01:47:16.560 because i never heard of it before and anytime i hear people like talking about the vitality
01:47:23.560 of tribal uh societies and the masculinity of the societies and you know um what would you call it 0.61
01:47:32.040 a true rebellion against the matriarchy i think of this these are the ick people 0.62
01:47:37.000 spelled I-K
01:47:38.320 the Ick people of northern Uganda 1.00
01:47:41.340 I'm just going to read this
01:47:42.980 this really doesn't even fit an example
01:47:45.140 of a complex civilization
01:47:46.220 but I don't do much reading in African tribes 1.00
01:47:49.200 this one blew my fucking mind 0.99
01:47:51.160 it said the Ick people of 0.99
01:47:53.060 northern Uganda live at 1.00
01:47:55.100 what must surely be the extreme
01:47:57.240 of deprivation and disaster
01:47:59.260 due to drought and
01:48:01.200 disruption by national boundaries
01:48:02.840 of the traditional cycle of movement 0.99
01:48:04.420 the ick live in such a food and water scarce environment that there's absolutely no advantage 0.99
01:48:10.660 to reciprocity or social sharing so there's no community whatsoever they are so highly
01:48:17.520 fragmented that most activities especially subsistence are pursued individually each
01:48:23.260 ick will spend days or weeks on his or her own searching for food and water their motivation
01:48:28.320 for marriage or cohabitation
01:48:30.580 is that one can't build a house
01:48:32.820 alone. But the members
01:48:34.940 of a conjugal pair forage
01:48:36.860 alone and do not share food. Indeed,
01:48:39.380 their foraging is so independent
01:48:40.860 that if both members happen to be in
01:48:42.860 their residence together, it's by
01:48:44.800 accident. Although little is
01:48:46.840 known about how they got to their
01:48:48.660 present situation, there are some
01:48:50.300 indications of former organizational
01:48:52.540 patterns. They possess clan names,
01:48:54.760 although today these have no structural
01:48:56.520 significance. They live in villages,
01:48:58.320 But these no longer have any political meaning.
01:49:00.340 They're just like houses that happen to be side by side. 0.58
01:49:03.380 And it's like that the mothers raise their kids for like right away.
01:49:07.480 The kids are almost like left to their own devices. 0.99
01:49:11.220 It's it's it's fucking crazy. 0.98
01:49:13.240 But how are they alive? 0.99
01:49:14.600 That's like the the next the very next step of civilization just above a gorilla.
01:49:20.560 Yeah.
01:49:20.920 Like that.
01:49:21.700 How like I don't even know how you're alive.
01:49:23.520 That's wow. 1.00
01:49:24.500 I like I do think gorillas might have more of a community.
01:49:27.680 yeah true because at that point like if you're that level of subsistence living like someone 0.90
01:49:33.700 must have said we got to get out of here we got to walk that direction until we find water you
01:49:40.980 know what i mean like yeah i don't care if we become slaves at that level maybe you might as
01:49:44.920 well become a slave because like well you know i don't want to work but i'd like water i'd like 1.00
01:49:51.260 some meat once in a while yeah maybe maybe being raped is better than being with this fucking bitch 1.00
01:49:58.140 and there there's a sequence to how these things tend to collapse he says there is first and 1.00
01:50:04.080 foremost a breakdown of authority and central control prior to collapse revolts and provincial
01:50:10.160 breakaways signal the weakening of the center revenues to the government often decline foreign
01:50:16.720 challengers become increasingly successful with lower revenues the military may become ineffective
01:50:21.940 the populace becomes more and more disaffected as the hierarchy seeks to mobilize resources
01:50:27.800 to meet the challenge with disintegration central direction is no longer possible
01:50:33.080 the former political center undergoes a significant loss of prominence and power
01:50:38.140 it's often ransacked and may ultimately be abandoned small petty states emerge in the
01:50:44.180 formerly unified territory which previous capitals may be done quite often these contend for
01:50:50.540 domination what populations remain in urban or other political centers reuse existing architecture
01:50:57.200 in a characteristic manner like does this sound familiar does this sound familiar to anyone
01:51:02.480 the difficulty with complexity is that it always costs whether we are talking about
01:51:10.040 organisms as they evolved to become more complex or societies as they evolved to become more
01:51:16.520 complex. In past societies the problem was that complexity would increase beyond the point that
01:51:22.360 was sustainable with the solar energy that ultimately supported them. We have to remember
01:51:27.760 that they didn't have the fossil fuel energy we have today. So ultimately they reached the point
01:51:33.400 where their complexity of their societies could not be sustained on the basis of solar energy,
01:51:38.900 on the basis of agriculture.
01:51:41.100 When I look at the industrialized world today
01:51:43.560 and try to project how it might develop
01:51:46.840 over the next few decades,
01:51:48.900 what I see are a large number
01:51:51.240 of very expensive problems converging at once.
01:51:55.140 And then in the process of collapse,
01:51:58.260 organization reduces to the lowest level
01:52:00.720 that is economically sustainable
01:52:02.400 so that a variety of contending polities
01:52:04.940 exists where there had been once peace and unity.
01:52:06.960 remaining populations must become locally self-sufficient to a degree not seen for several
01:52:12.780 generations groups that had formerly been economic and political partners now become strangers
01:52:18.440 even threatening competitors the citizens of modern complex societies usually do not realize
01:52:26.540 that we are in an anomaly of history throughout several million years that recognizable humans
01:52:32.620 are known to have lived, the common political unit was a small autonomous community acting
01:52:37.820 independently and largely self-sufficient. Two concepts important to understanding the nature
01:52:43.520 of complexity are inequality and heterogeneity. Inequality may be thought of as vertical
01:52:49.780 differentiation, ranking, and unequal access to resources. Heterogeneity is a subtler concept.
01:52:55.940 It refers to the number of distinctive parts or components to a society, at the same time the ways
01:53:01.880 in which a population is distributed amongst these parts.
01:53:07.260 States tend to be overwhelmingly concerned
01:53:09.920 with maintaining their territorial integrity.
01:53:12.700 This is indeed one of their primary characteristics.
01:53:16.300 States are the only kind of human society
01:53:18.520 that does not ordinarily undergo short-term cycles
01:53:21.420 of formation and dissolution.
01:53:24.040 I think that's an interesting way of putting it.
01:53:26.180 States are the only things that think they can live forever
01:53:28.980 or think that they don't need to sacrifice
01:53:31.700 anything to renew themselves whereas the community kind of understands that and that's what we're
01:53:38.040 talking about before with um the idea of the chat being this sort of organism like the chat is like
01:53:44.860 an entity that must be maintained by a gardener rather than a dictator you need to cycle in
01:53:49.940 new ideas new blood carefully right but otherwise it stagnates and so to our communities right
01:54:00.340 but once it gets
01:54:01.740 as a sufficient level of complexity
01:54:04.140 it's like you begin to think
01:54:06.440 that you can exist outside
01:54:07.800 of life and death itself and the state
01:54:10.380 stops believing that
01:54:12.400 it needs to
01:54:13.540 refresh itself in any way
01:54:16.000 and that's what tends to lead to collapse as it
01:54:18.220 clings to power
01:54:19.300 over time
01:54:20.980 and he gets in that right here
01:54:24.220 he says despite an institutionalized
01:54:26.620 authority structure
01:54:27.520 an ideological basis and a monopoly
01:54:30.260 and force, the rulers of states share at least one thing in common with chiefs and the big men,
01:54:35.940 the need to establish and consistently reinforce legitimacy. In complex as well as simpler
01:54:41.660 societies, leadership activities and social resources must be continuously devoted to this
01:54:46.860 purpose. Hierarchy and complexity, as noted, are rare, and when present, require constant
01:54:52.380 reinforcement. No societal leader is ever far from the need to validate the position of their
01:54:58.840 relevance legitimacy is the belief of the populace and the elites that the rule is proper and valid
01:55:04.740 that the political world is as it should be and usually during a collapse that's the first thing
01:55:09.640 to fail and again does that sound familiar does this sound in our current society that there is
01:55:17.340 no legitimacy to the government i would argue that there's been no legitimacy since you know 0.61
01:55:22.500 the past few decades since the fucking 70s really does anyone believe in the government no 0.57
01:55:26.880 he just goes into some description here 0.86
01:55:31.940 about the various
01:55:33.920 types of early states I think is also
01:55:35.720 interesting here he says
01:55:36.720 these two individuals Klessen and Skalnik
01:55:39.660 distinguish various types of early states
01:55:41.780 these are the
01:55:43.460 inchoate early state in this type kinship
01:55:45.860 family and community ties still dominate
01:55:48.000 the relations the next one is
01:55:49.640 the typical early state where kinship
01:55:52.060 in this variety is balanced by ties
01:55:54.120 to locality competition
01:55:55.860 and counterbalance heredity,
01:55:59.000 leading to administrative roles
01:56:01.180 that are allocated to non-kinsmen
01:56:03.080 and redistribution of reciprocity. 0.88
01:56:05.920 Then the third one is the transactional
01:56:08.120 or the transitional early state.
01:56:10.780 Kinship in this final category
01:56:12.420 affects only marginal aspects of the government.
01:56:14.880 The administrative apparatus is dominated
01:56:16.780 by appointed officials and market economies
01:56:19.880 and overtly antagonistic social structures develop
01:56:23.160 with the emergence of private ownership
01:56:25.340 and the means of production so in each step of this you actually get further and further away
01:56:29.460 from the kinship network and the only ways you see that still relevant in society is in like secret
01:56:35.980 societies and dynastic families those are the people who tend to have power in the society
01:56:41.680 and these legacy families but you're not supposed to admit that either but it does seem in that
01:56:48.520 sense that the kin network remains and the kinship community is the most powerful orientation for
01:56:57.080 your own survival in any system it's just that they tend to build a complex system
01:57:03.040 around themselves in a sense um and you know a few uh different authors have come up with reasons
01:57:11.260 for why these collapses occur this is a number of authors have synthesized the different theories
01:57:16.520 formulated to account for the origin of the state um so why do these kinship networks why
01:57:23.720 do these tribes and these families eventually become a state what would drive them to want to
01:57:27.560 do that he says here uh one drive is managerial he says as societies come under stress or as
01:57:34.100 populations increase in numbers integrative requirements may arise that can be resolved
01:57:38.960 by the emergence of managerial hierarchies uh the second is internal conflict theories within
01:57:44.580 in the school postulate that a class conflict
01:57:46.500 is a prime mover behind complexity.
01:57:49.860 Many of the
01:57:50.760 Marxist thinkers believe this, that
01:57:52.380 it is the only reason society exists
01:57:54.560 is because of some kind of class
01:57:56.480 conflict driving it.
01:57:59.080 The other third option
01:58:00.640 is external conflict.
01:58:03.340 This one guy,
01:58:04.760 Carnero, argues that
01:58:06.440 its circumscribed environments,
01:58:08.780 this is the geopolitics angle,
01:58:10.840 these stresses lead to conflict,
01:58:12.380 while success at war necessitates
01:58:14.300 the development of institutions to administer and administrate conquered groups. The last and
01:58:19.940 fourth one is synthetic. Several interrelated processes generate complexity in state institutions.
01:58:25.940 Colin Renfrew, for example, cites the influence of agriculture and social organization or societal
01:58:31.420 factors on craft production and so forth. So there's no clear consensus on what drives
01:58:37.500 one group to become a state eventually um it's probably all of them frankly because each 0.99
01:58:45.140 civilization is fundamentally different like the indian civilization is different than
01:58:49.620 the aztec civilization is different than the russian civilization currently so you know
01:58:55.100 and furthermore he says there appear to be 11 major themes in the explanation for collapse
01:59:00.720 so we talked about what causes states to form there's 11 ways that they tend to collapse
01:59:05.480 these are number one depletion or cessation of a vital resource or resources which they depend
01:59:13.060 to the establishment of a new resource base three the occurrence of some insurmountable
01:59:18.520 catastrophe maybe a meteor strike maybe a huge earthquake four insufficient response to
01:59:23.780 circumstances five other complex societies six intruders seven class conflict eight social
01:59:32.620 dysfunction, nine mystical factors, 10 chance concentration of events, and 11 economic factors.
01:59:42.540 And even with catastrophes, he actually goes into detail on why he doesn't think each one of these
01:59:50.380 is sufficient to explain it. He says, for example, catastrophes, complex societies regularly
01:59:55.220 provide for catastrophes and routinely experience them. So yeah, catastrophes happen all the time.
02:00:01.260 And one of the reasons you form a complex society is to weather catastrophes.
02:00:05.040 So it would need to be like whatever that sunk Atlantis.
02:00:09.580 That would be one example.
02:00:10.660 But failing that or a meteor strike or some kind of other flood, usually that's not a great example.
02:00:17.040 For his part, what he thinks leads more often to societal collapse, and we discussed this at the start, is complexity itself.
02:00:26.320 And he goes into that here.
02:00:27.340 And this could be the last part we end on.
02:00:28.740 And I do think this is true, and it actually captures and explains a lot of the other, what people think to be causes.
02:00:36.320 It says, not only is energy flow required to maintain a socio-political system, but the amount of energy must be sufficient for the complexity of that system.
02:00:46.580 The amount of energy required per capita to maintain the simplest human institutions are incredibly small compared to those needed by the most complex.
02:00:55.060 As societies increase in complexity, more networks are created among individuals, more hierarchical controls are created to regulate those networks, more information is processed, there is more centralization of information flow, there is increasing need to support specialists not directly involved in resource production to account for all this information.
02:01:17.540 Think of the legal apparatus.
02:01:19.440 Think of the bureaucracy.
02:01:21.340 More specifically, it is proposed that in many crucial spheres, continued investment in this complexity reaches a point where the benefits of such an investment begin to decline and gradually then accelerate a force.
02:01:33.400 So really, as you increase in complexity, you need more institutions to justify that complexity, need more resources for that, and you reach a tipping point of some kind where no one gets any benefit out of these institutions.
02:01:48.060 Again, does that sound familiar?
02:01:49.760 Does that sound like we are living in this machine and we don't know why we're doing these things anymore?
02:01:54.960 It just seems to create misery.
02:01:57.760 It creates alienation.
02:01:59.580 It creates deterritorialization.
02:02:01.220 that is the primary marker of collapse because you need increasing amounts of energy just to
02:02:06.640 sustain this and no one knows why they want to sustain it anymore and that causes all the
02:02:12.980 internal rebellions and one i someone on twitter had said this it's probably one of the maga people
02:02:20.260 and they had proposed an open-ended question an engagement farming question the question was
02:02:26.780 something like, can you name one problem with capitalism? Of course, he's trying to get 20,000
02:02:33.340 replies. And I just said one without getting into it. I'm like, capitalism seems to be the most
02:02:39.800 effective at generating enemies to itself. If we are to understand that capitalism is the
02:02:45.920 most advanced and efficient form of resource allocation, let's just grant that. It's undeniable
02:02:52.020 that it seems to generate the most enemies,
02:02:54.440 the most internal enemies to itself.
02:02:57.500 And I believe that any system
02:02:59.020 that generates more enemies to itself
02:03:01.460 than, you know, defenders,
02:03:04.240 that is a broken system,
02:03:06.040 whether you like it or not.
02:03:07.980 So that's kind of the system we're in right now.
02:03:10.580 We inhabit a civilization
02:03:11.960 that is extremely good at generating people
02:03:15.760 that hate that civilization.
02:03:18.040 And regardless of how we ended up there,
02:03:20.180 But that itself, I think, is what will spell the end of the civilization.
02:03:25.040 Because at the end of the day, who is going to be there to defend it?
02:03:28.500 Even Republicans don't even seem to want to defend it anymore. 1.00
02:03:32.040 The only people who really, really want to defend this system are new immigrants who actually don't want to defend the system. 1.00
02:03:39.000 They just operate in their self-interest. 1.00
02:03:40.600 so there's almost no one here who's really defending like the american electorate or the
02:03:46.840 canadian you know uh commonwealth right now who believes that the nature of the type of politicians
02:03:53.340 we have on both sides in every party is what you could say are grifters or they're people who are
02:03:58.660 free of principle they're people who are only there because they're playing the game so the
02:04:01.940 the corollary of that is that where are all the people who were principled in previous generations
02:04:07.460 Like there used to be a draw to get involved because there was a possibility of you actually improving things and pulling things together.
02:04:14.780 But the only people left, you know, those of us who actually have principles and want a better future, none of us are involved in politics, really, because the system doesn't exist for that.
02:04:27.440 It is what it does.
02:04:28.180 And we know that that's not what it does.
02:04:30.260 Yeah.
02:04:30.940 And he just really puts a bow on it here.
02:04:33.600 He says, it is suggested that the increased costs of socio-political evolution frequently reach a point of diminishing marginal returns.
02:04:42.100 That is to say, the benefit-investment ratio of socio-political complexity follows the marginal product curve in figure one.
02:04:49.660 I'll put this up in the video.
02:04:52.460 He says, after a certain point, increased investments in complexity failed to yield proportionally increasing returns.
02:05:00.080 Marginal returns declined and marginal costs rise.
02:05:03.600 complexity as a strategy becomes increasingly costly and yields decreasing marginal benefits
02:05:09.680 that that's just a simple way of putting it i think it says gregory johnson has shown
02:05:15.020 graphically that as the size of a social group increases the communication load increases even
02:05:21.260 faster information processing increases in response until capacity is reached after this
02:05:27.320 point information processing performance deteriorates so that greater costs are allocated
02:05:32.720 to processing that is less efficient and reliable at this point information processing hierarchies
02:05:38.640 may be expected to develop in the same vein more has suggested that when the amount of information
02:05:44.260 processed by society is small much can be collected at low cost at this amount of information as this
02:05:51.140 amount of information spreads however the marginal cost of useful information grows rapidly in part
02:05:56.820 because redundancy of information increases so there's more information more laws more rules 0.96
02:06:02.600 more data than ever before but the cost of processing it that's what fucking ai is ai 0.88
02:06:08.040 is us trying to make sense of this information driven world and that we can't make sense of it 0.77
02:06:13.240 anymore so we're going to try and create a super intelligence that can cough up something that has
02:06:17.960 utility that used to be search engines and search engines became corrupted by useless information
02:06:23.180 through search engine optimization otherwise known as seo and the content revolution which i was 0.96
02:06:29.480 unfortunately a part of sorry but that's how we need we need a fucking magic bullet of some kind
02:06:36.480 to make sense of everything um he says here some people i think will agree with this some people 0.76
02:06:41.780 might not but he says modern science is becoming less productive overall because it has become
02:06:47.520 increasingly specialized and expensive and has depleted much of the stock of less costly questions
02:06:52.880 this costly science certainly produces astonishing results but these cannot be claimed to be more
02:06:58.260 valuable than the generalized knowledge of earlier less expensive science early archaeology
02:07:04.280 established the parameters of the field defined regional and temporal variation and did remarkably
02:07:10.440 good job of setting out the basic rules more recent highly funded archaeology asserts one
02:07:16.280 critic has not been successful in answering a single major research question i think that's true
02:07:22.980 he says here the appeasement of urban mobs presents the classical illustration of this
02:07:28.820 principle any level of activities undertaken to appease such populations eventually becomes
02:07:34.200 the expected minimum an increase on the cost of bread and circuses which seems to have been
02:07:39.640 required in imperial rome to legitimize such things as the accession of a new ruler or his
02:07:44.960 continued reign may bring no increased return beyond the state of non-revolt rewards to roman
02:07:51.580 military personnel would often follow the same pattern particularly when bounties were granted
02:07:56.360 upon a ruler's succession um roman soldiers regarded such bounties as a right so that's
02:08:02.600 interesting like the things you use to put down a revolution became expected going forward and so
02:08:08.340 the demands and the expectations of the population just increase increase over time just to keep them
02:08:13.600 quiet from rebelling against something else in this system that caused them to rebel does that
02:08:18.440 sound like i don't know black people does that sound like immigrants does that sound like most
02:08:23.980 groups in america basically everyone's saying like pay me money right now or i'm going to burn 0.98
02:08:28.120 your city down i know some people you know it's easy to believe if you've been sitting in this
02:08:33.720 boiling pot for long enough that that's normal it's not normal to shake down the government
02:08:38.520 constantly you know society used to be that people wanted to be inside of it it's actually
02:08:43.980 not normal to live in a civilization where
02:08:45.920 everyone wants to burn it down all the 1.00
02:08:47.980 fucking time and the only 0.99
02:08:49.800 way you won't is if you get 0.99
02:08:51.800 like more free crypto or
02:08:53.900 whatever anyway
02:08:55.800 that's what I wanted to just
02:08:57.920 finish on that that
02:08:59.240 I really like the thesis that
02:09:02.120 the cause of
02:09:03.760 complex civilizations collapsing
02:09:05.900 is complexity itself and
02:09:07.920 the demands of complexity and
02:09:09.980 the belief in states that complexity
02:09:11.900 is their shield that complexity is the evolution that will withstand entropy whereas it seems to
02:09:20.260 invite entropy and the only way to really sustain that complexity is and he says this in the book
02:09:26.600 is almost exponentially increasing the amount of energy put into it this is usually done through
02:09:31.340 conquest um even george bodai would say you need to burn it off with sacrifices and whatnot
02:09:37.220 to because the surplus uh suffocates you eventually we discussed that earlier on too
02:09:42.380 um the accursed share was what the book was called but basically you know it's this idea that
02:09:48.000 complexity means means an antidote to entropy and complexity makes you invincible and i think
02:09:55.220 it's quite the opposite and i don't think states are really prepared to reckon with that what
02:10:00.500 before we go what do you think about all that yeah no i mean it's it's it's kind of crazy
02:10:06.020 how this perfectly describes
02:10:08.720 exactly what we're living through right now.
02:10:11.180 Yeah.
02:10:11.660 It's impressive.
02:10:12.880 Like I said,
02:10:13.560 can't recommend the book enough.
02:10:14.960 It's pretty long.
02:10:15.600 It's full of examples.
02:10:17.000 It's full of citations,
02:10:18.100 full of other civilizations,
02:10:20.580 many I didn't have time to get to right now,
02:10:22.960 but I wanted to give a couple of examples.
02:10:24.520 But anyway,
02:10:25.440 get out and write that.
02:10:26.380 There's a lot I didn't get to cover,
02:10:27.480 unfortunately,
02:10:27.980 but I'm sure it'll make its way
02:10:29.260 into the next few episodes anyway.
02:10:31.140 Whenever we get a book that we really like,
02:10:34.060 we tend to break it up into parts
02:10:35.660 and return to it later anyway so i was going to cut this episode short it did the opposite
02:10:40.660 went too long uh thank you just to remind people um this will be the last episode for a couple of
02:10:47.800 weeks i'm going uh on sabbatical for a couple of weeks so there won't be episodes but so this will
02:10:55.600 be it when we come back we're going to do something pretty exciting and fun um we'll be
02:11:01.600 leading into some really interesting
02:11:03.500 new reviews.
02:11:05.620 Let's see if anything happens over the course
02:11:07.580 of two weeks. I don't know. Maybe something
02:11:09.680 happens.
02:11:11.560 All right. I'll talk to you later, man.
02:11:13.600 No worries, man. I'll see you. Cheers.
02:11:14.660 right and we should be live this is the first time i've done this live so the first time we've
02:11:36.220 done the interview segments for the show broadcasting on youtube odyssey x and rumble
02:11:44.140 so if anything goes wrong uh it is my fault but it's not my responsibility and i just want to
02:11:50.940 thank my esteemed guest american elitist uh for joining me today i've been on american elitist
02:11:56.540 show before this would have been a few months ago i had a fantastic time and i really wanted to get
02:12:02.700 you on our show so we can kind of continue our discussion because i recall we had some other
02:12:07.340 things to discuss um so first of all thank you for taking the time to show up here no it was my
02:12:14.040 pleasure man uh you guys are really cool guys and you're funny um and based and like that's pretty
02:12:19.400 much the criterium uh for me to spend my time with people these days you know well thank you very
02:12:24.820 much for the kind words and now you we were just talking before the show and you had just gotten
02:12:31.260 back from the old glory club conference which is a event that a number of my friends went to
02:12:39.100 and uh i thought we could start with that because you maybe that will tee up what we're going to
02:12:43.340 talk about because i've known a few people who went to that maybe they were feeling a bit down
02:12:49.200 in the field i've been uninvigorated and they came back feeling invigorated feeling like they
02:12:54.500 had a new direction for their politics at the very least so i was wondering if you could i've never
02:13:00.120 been so let me know what's it like you walk in day one is dave the distributors sucking and 0.99
02:13:07.800 fucking what are we talking about here okay so dave one day one is not that cool uh but 0.99
02:13:13.500 so day one is um you get there uh either you fly there or you drive there so the first time you get 0.98
02:13:20.820 there you're probably pretty exhausted however uh by the time you get to the hotel where it takes
02:13:24.940 place at everybody's kind of gathered around the parking lot waiting for other people to arrive
02:13:30.000 so the first thing you do is you just like meet people you exchange you know telegrams discords
02:13:36.900 oh you're that guy oh you're charlamagne it's good to meet you man uh you know you connect
02:13:41.100 people's voice to their face irl and that's a very interesting process because your brain likes to
02:13:48.200 play tricks on you uh and sometimes the voice that you hear does not match the face you imagine
02:13:54.420 that person to have and that was the case for quite a bit of people at the u.s event uh this
02:13:59.900 year what's charlemagne wearing what's he showing up you see charlemagne coming down the block
02:14:05.020 he he's wearing like a tan suit and like brown dress brown dress shoes pretty much
02:14:15.900 i'm always trying to get a feel for the suit situation on the ground at these
02:14:20.820 conferences because i had a few guys you know people talk about what to wear and things in our
02:14:25.800 space and people like wearing suits they get all suited and booted but i'm seeing a lot of black
02:14:31.320 suits i think black is sometimes inappropriate for these events so are you seeing a lot and i'm
02:14:37.180 always reminded of i don't know if you know that guy review bra who doesn't love review bra who
02:14:42.340 doesn't love fast food reviews but he always had a vibe he was wearing a suit that's always like
02:14:47.740 two sizes too big and given off a real sort of tim burton-ish vibe did you see a lot of that or
02:14:54.460 are we in a new era right now i'm not gonna lie there was definitely some of that at the event
02:15:00.920 this year however there was a lot of variety as well that surprised me so you had a lot of people
02:15:05.700 wearing beige suits suits tan suits white suits gray suits and me personally i wore a blue suit
02:15:14.860 actually as my main dress up for the big day which is saturday you know it's dangerous because that's
02:15:22.160 a bold color and to me just from my experience it seems like only veterans are allowed to wear that
02:15:28.400 like the only guy the only two types of people who can wear a blue suit usually and that's like
02:15:33.240 retired seal team six guys or current pro wrestlers so i'm you know salutations for pulling that off
02:15:42.460 uh yes i think it did look well on me um i also did get a nice uh extra dress coat uh just have
02:15:49.760 something extra for the event because i was told not to wear the same thing for three days in a row
02:15:54.720 trying to beat that like anglo impulse to like not put an effort to your appearance um
02:16:00.820 in the modern day but no dress clothes are strictly enforced here uh the discipline on
02:16:06.580 of men is enforced yeah i know the older i get i really am the guy who finds one type of shirt
02:16:13.280 that he likes and just gets seven of those shirts like oh one for every day not not one extra it's 0.99
02:16:19.240 the exact i can wear this shirt every day until they rot off my fucking body because it sounds 0.99
02:16:24.380 like i'm being too critical of people you gotta understand i dress like an official retard you 0.98
02:16:30.200 know i'm out i'm acting out of pocket every which way every single day so i don't want to sound like 0.86
02:16:35.340 i'm high and mighty here and getting down on people because you know one of these days i'd
02:16:39.640 love to go to the old glory club and i don't want to walk into a wall of fists i don't want charlemagne 0.97
02:16:45.340 to come up to me and fucking scissor kick me back to canada uh he might if you dress up too much like 0.98
02:16:52.180 a retard uh damn it but yeah so um i know some of my friend uh prudentialist and a couple others 0.99
02:17:01.060 gave talks what can you expect at an event like this what were the talks like or was there a theme 0.98
02:17:06.000 so the theme for this year was taking the reins and let me explain what that means for those who
02:17:13.240 get the reference obviously when you're riding a horse the reins dictate the direction you want
02:17:19.020 the horse to go into not the speed of the horse you usually kick the horse on its side to tell
02:17:24.480 it to go faster however like if you just rely on using your feet uh the horse is going to go
02:17:30.660 whoever writes what it wants you know and so it's going to be chaotic and not controlled so you want
02:17:35.500 to have reins on this machine and that was kind of the main background to all of the speeches that
02:17:41.800 were presented over the three days did the event and what that entails is basically like
02:17:49.860 you got to take responsibility and action if we want to be a serious movement here
02:17:54.840 um the time for play uh and donald trump memes and 4chan posting um it's kind of over it's time
02:18:03.020 to get serious it's time to you know put have some real risk on the line here uh to do these
02:18:08.040 things um and not to say there isn't rewards for it it's just to say there are consequences for
02:18:13.740 doing this um and you should be well aware of that and if you want to take action then that
02:18:19.200 you're the kind of person we need here it's interesting you say that because i had recorded
02:18:24.420 a live stream with your prudentialist seemingly like the hours before he was out the door to go
02:18:30.560 give his talk and it was actually on this topic um and it was about how he and that is up now
02:18:36.780 people can go to his sub stack uh there's like the first hours free full episode we go for like
02:18:42.440 two hours and 45 minutes rest of that's behind the paywall but the topic was he called the
02:18:49.140 consultancy crisis which is a pretty cool term but it was about how he works in government he
02:18:55.820 works in some capacity where he can allocate capital to fund projects and his position was
02:19:01.040 we should get more of our guys into these not necessarily leadership political positions but
02:19:07.520 in these sort of into the managerial state we talk about the managerial state all the time
02:19:12.780 we're always talking about james burnham in that capacity but he's like well you know and this is
02:19:17.640 the whole project 2025 thing which is like can we actually just get our our best psychos into the
02:19:24.080 organs of power and there won't be big sexy public facing positions but maybe you can get your hand
02:19:29.780 on the spigot in some and not even in dc or new york city but some other town and just start
02:19:36.280 building that way and i got some and the entire argument was positioned that this isn't something
02:19:42.440 everyone needs to do you can still have people trying to get into politics you can still have
02:19:47.280 people preparing for the collapse over here the the whole idea was if you want to do those things
02:19:53.060 you're probably already doing them so you don't need to stop doing them but there is this whole
02:19:58.160 free-floating mass of people who maybe aren't skilled enough to do those things but need
02:20:03.880 something to do so and they're you know white collar guys maybe so here's a way to apply yourself
02:20:10.660 along with these other strategies that people in our spaces are doing so i got some pushback from
02:20:16.120 that because i think people misinterpret it as because every time you have an idea or a strategy
02:20:21.120 people think oh so that's the one strategy we all have to do and that's not the case at all but 0.80
02:20:25.860 anyway i'm just adding a whole fucking disclaimer to my last three no that that is the thing about 0.80
02:20:31.260 the dissident right whatever you want to call this thing you know anti-progressivism whatever 0.95
02:20:35.680 you know words you would like to use so you can pick uh your choice um is one of the guys had a
02:20:42.080 very great saying about us. It's like, the decision of right is
02:20:45.560 full of different factions and interesting ideas. Yeah, it does
02:20:49.920 not believe in discourse of ideas as a mainstream principle
02:20:55.340 of power. If you know what I mean?
02:20:58.800 Yeah, no, I agree with that. And also, you know, I know Charles
02:21:02.180 Haywood, who we've had on the show before is a good friend, he
02:21:06.020 was advocating for netter or no enemies to the right or no
02:21:09.960 enemies on the right is the one he's saying recently and um it's funny that i was actually
02:21:14.860 watching i was watching this uh shannon sharp you know i watch a lot of uh black entertainment from
02:21:21.540 time to time and so he's got a talk show and there's all kinds of black comedians on there
02:21:25.940 and they were lamenting how black comedians or like with drake and kendrick lamar said we do
02:21:31.820 our beefs in public the white people don't do that the white people like joe rogan help each
02:21:35.860 other route and going to this podcast and that's true to an extent but i kind of like the beefs i
02:21:42.580 like the arguments i like big messy debates and i think you know because there's been some flare-ups
02:21:48.200 over the years i think you know one big one uh not long ago was like more goth versus like a few
02:21:54.380 people because who doesn't like more goth right but it was over covid and everyone whenever like
02:21:58.840 a content creator argues with another one people oh shush don't don't don't know this is bad this
02:22:04.380 is bad for all of us it's like okay we're grown-ups we're allowed to disagree we're allowed to call
02:22:09.420 each other names even because this is the internet this is all kind of fake you know i thought that i
02:22:14.460 thought we understood that that we're allowed to be a bit more hostile to each other because we're
02:22:19.900 men on the right we can be a bit crude and not take it so personally and get so scared about it
02:22:27.020 that was my perspective anyway so to me i think part of our discourse is we we should allow
02:22:33.580 ourselves to be a bit more hostile to each other and not take it personally because that they don't 0.92
02:22:37.960 do that over on the left and it's really gay and annoying and boring you know and at a certain 0.97
02:22:42.320 point certain things need to be lines in the sand i think and everyone's got there's certain 0.97
02:22:49.060 divisions that i think are always going to be there and shit's going to happen but what are 0.78
02:22:53.720 you going to do about it you know not like cower anyway what do you think about that 0.92
02:22:57.520 no i think you have a good point there uh there does need to be this kind of like you know
02:23:03.060 checkmating of other people in the sphere and disagreements and scuffles um are a good thing
02:23:09.620 actually because they really it sharpens your ideas right of the person who's being attacked
02:23:13.780 right if they have good ideas their ideas will withstand the attack right and be proven correct
02:23:18.740 over time right and if not like well sorry man you got to deal with you know the
02:23:24.100 slinging storm of the internet here um this isn't like leftist chan you know youtube where
02:23:29.620 we're gonna have a safe space for you and your pronouns as long as you know
02:23:33.600 you're into uh luxury gay space communism uh yeah and i have to be told that more than anyone 0.55
02:23:42.060 because i do have the tendency to like someone says something mean to me their name goes right 0.72
02:23:47.300 into a notebook and i gotta learn to burn that notebook i gotta learn to stop making death notes 0.90
02:23:52.600 for people who spurn me online so hey again dress like a retard keep serial killer notebooks 0.96
02:23:59.360 I'm as guilty as anyone for all the things I'm criticizing. 0.93
02:24:02.220 So that's where I'm coming from.
02:24:04.000 But that's how I know.
02:24:08.160 No, that's all right.
02:24:10.700 Listen, I think we all have our quirks. 0.97
02:24:13.200 Listen, we're all kind of insane. 0.96
02:24:15.020 If you're on the right, you're kind of insane to a degree, right? 0.97
02:24:18.800 If you're not just one of these normies who wants to chug along to get along, right?
02:24:23.140 So you'd have to have some inherent disagreeability about the system within you.
02:24:28.360 And that means there's going to be some quirks there and there's going to be some insanity and it's going to be some cringe, but it's so worth it because you just have these such high quality people on our side.
02:24:39.820 Not all of them. Some of them are Spurks who are useless, but you just have that quality on our side that you can never find on the other side, the left, you know, which is just the mainstream, like, goy slop, you know, the gray ooze type of thing. 1.00
02:24:55.680 it's unoriginal bland and on the right you have like papa john's you know meat lovers special with 0.89
02:25:02.600 you know you know a cookie cookie pizza on the side and it's like there's going to be some
02:25:08.460 disagreements here about what's best but at the end of the day one's going to be better than the
02:25:12.600 other in the end of the day i tell you what it's always a knife fight over here on uh stuffed crust
02:25:17.480 nationalism but that's the way it should be and i think that's what's interesting is that there's
02:25:22.900 more and more people migrating to our it's it's kind of weird to spatialize this like the way i'm
02:25:28.740 saying it but there's more people who are taking to our ideas especially women just because you
02:25:35.200 know what was formerly like the dirt bag left like that was the cool edgy leftist they're allowed to
02:25:40.940 say slurs now and again and they're allowed to laugh at heterodox things but even they people
02:25:45.760 like they aged out of that that's not cool anymore they got lame we're watching brianna woo of all
02:25:52.060 people uh socialist democrat is on trigonometry right now saying the woke came for me too i'm not
02:26:00.320 doing an impression of brianna because this is what he sounds like it's it's a an insane man in
02:26:06.220 a dress uh like a bernie bro gamer gate veteran who's like you know though the woke's gone too 0.99
02:26:13.100 far and so they're coming over here because all their ideas are dog shit like californians 0.98
02:26:20.040 fleeing to texas and i think there's a lot of people who are greeting them with open arms 0.99
02:26:24.900 i'm not thrilled about that we don't actually need that many friends we're allowed you know
02:26:30.200 like i think we've been proven cool by how lame they've been and the worst thing that we can do
02:26:37.560 is to like accept them and let them dictate what's acceptable over here now and that is the thing
02:26:44.380 you're correct about this like sub culture of the right is like the right has basically had
02:26:50.260 like the teeth kicked in for like 100 plus years at this point it's just been beaten to death with
02:26:55.340 like a whip essentially in the middle of a cornfield if you would like to use a crude metaphor
02:27:00.460 and it's just it's just used to be taking abuse and abuse and abuse from its you know
02:27:05.380 estranged husband and like basically it can't leave that relationship and like if somebody
02:27:12.320 just comes along and just says well i could beat you a little bit less but like you got to change
02:27:17.400 some of your ideas here we're still going to keep things fundamentally the same but we're just going
02:27:22.120 to quirk it so that i if the revolution stops where i want it to be essentially and that's the
02:27:28.620 problem with the right it's way too welcoming of people who say even the most modicum of
02:27:34.420 disagreement with the similar outcome right and the greatest example of this i could think of is 0.98
02:27:39.280 like uh what was that like black bimbo whore who like everybody on the right was obsessed with 1.00
02:27:46.500 during like the covid thing right and she said like uh the vaccine was going way too far and 0.99
02:27:54.220 that was the one thing she said i think it was uh madonna or something like that one of these like
02:28:00.140 you know people and all the people on the right were suddenly like well we love madonna now she's 0.99
02:28:05.060 one of us and it's just like uh you morons uh you're being played here essentially yeah the 0.94
02:28:13.960 covid narrative is actually a great the covid narrative is actually a great example of that 0.98
02:28:19.820 sorry i just muted you by accident um because like we started seeing a lot of liberals start
02:28:26.540 to try and take those what they previously called conspiracy points and adopt them as their own
02:28:31.620 they just say like well we never we actually never liked the covid vaccine i don't know what 0.92
02:28:35.700 you guys are talking about like that was a weird thing and you need to be a bit of a psycho to still 0.89
02:28:40.360 keep hammering away at that but i am that type of psycho where i'm going to keep bringing it up
02:28:45.300 people think it's weird to still talk about covid it didn't happen that long ago it was a big weird
02:28:50.320 thing that happened and there's a lot of people who kind of want to move on so that was almost
02:28:53.640 like a test case to be like are you really going to grab a hold of this thing and ride it all the
02:28:59.600 way to the bottom. But anyway, I wanted to get back to the Old Glory Club conference. I was wondering if you could
02:29:07.360 summarize, just what were some of the big takeaways for you, what you had learned at that conference? From the
02:29:14.260 perspective of, let's also set this up, from the perspective of a Zoomer, would you say that the attendance was
02:29:22.060 kind of young and what spoke to you as a young man?
02:29:27.680 So from my perspective, the audience who came, it was 1.00
02:29:31.320 definitely a lot of quite a bit of Zoomers. There was also 1.00
02:29:34.180 based Gen Xers and millennials there too. These are your Dave's,
02:29:38.920 your last things, you know, Prudentialists, some of these
02:29:42.840 people. But you had a good mix of Zoomers in there, I would say 1.00
02:29:46.720 maybe like 40%, 30% in total of everybody who attended. We had 1.00
02:29:51.120 around 140 ish people who came to this conference um and as to what spoke to me the most i think it
02:29:59.480 was just the raw energy of these young men who are just like no we're done with this system we're
02:30:05.000 going to burn it to the ground we are going to outlast it we're going to build something to
02:30:09.260 replace it we are going to build the institutions of the future and become the new counter elite
02:30:14.600 and it's just this energy raw energy right of like listen we're going to win this fight we're
02:30:21.000 going to fight you know what i mean like our lives are on the line here our culture is on the line
02:30:25.240 here and it's that like fire breathing spirit of men with like fire in their chest that's what
02:30:31.780 really spoke to me i think yeah i was reading an article in jacuse not long ago whoever wrote it
02:30:38.180 escapes me but i covered it on one of the episodes of real secret coffee hours which is our paywall
02:30:42.920 show but it was you know you need to believe in the inevitability of your own ideas and there's
02:30:48.920 a few people who talk like that not a lot of people talk like that a lot of people are very
02:30:52.600 morose about the practicality of their own worldview but there are a few who believe
02:30:57.960 even if they don't fully believe it but they praxeologically believe in the inevitability
02:31:03.260 of their own you know not not not even a utopia but their values i think that's what separates
02:31:09.880 our side from a lot of leftists that i i do think there's two animating forces behind
02:31:16.400 And this very big bucket of the left, one is a sort of naive utopianism, but and another is just outright hatred, hatred for specific groups.
02:31:26.360 And that that need not even be white people or certain ethnicities, but it could also be, you know, the rich or landlords.
02:31:34.200 A lot of it. And that's actually a pretty good way to organize and animate people to tear something down or kill someone. 0.72
02:31:41.160 It works effectively well. It's kind of hard to sell people on the collectivism of ideals. And that's something we've kind of been beating our head at for most of my life and experience in this space. But I think we're doing a better job of it by believing in the inevitability of it, and then actually picking targets that are opponents to those values, rather than thinking that, oh, our values are eternal, so we can just kind of wait it out.
02:32:08.560 I was like, no, no, no. The vitality of your ideas and worldview are eternal, but they do have
02:32:17.160 opponents and enemies that you need to take down or neutralize in some way. I think there's a lot
02:32:22.540 of people who are thinking more practically right now, and I like that. That's what Mean
02:32:27.480 Prudentialist we're talking about, which is that you don't need one grand strategy that addresses
02:32:33.960 everything but as an individual or a crew let's say it's you and five guys which is the ideal
02:32:40.580 organization for this like you can pick a reasonable goal and you can execute that goal
02:32:47.220 whereas i think you know year like 10 7 years ago around there it was way more common for you know
02:32:56.620 you entered the space you're a young guy and you believe in certain heterodox things or you know
02:33:02.380 you've been cast out of polite society for whatever reason you're always you're trying to
02:33:06.260 join an army there's a lot of guys and i would argue that america first is a lot like this too
02:33:10.840 a lot of the guys involved in that like i want to join this big movement and i think there's a move
02:33:16.780 away from that i think there's a move away from like i'm looking for an army to join i'm looking
02:33:21.380 for a leader or a dictator uh there's been enough cults of personality that i i'm not sure that
02:33:27.440 that's going to excite people anymore or it's not going to excite the people who know better
02:33:31.600 um what do you think about that no i think you're correct and that was actually a big thing that we
02:33:38.300 discussed during the event was these uh these certain leaders of uh the ghost of alt-right 1.0
02:33:43.740 and kind of their mistakes and follies which cost them everything essentially right and obviously
02:33:49.140 uh the grippers are one of those factions essentially and what you have here with
02:33:54.100 these people is just like now they originally probably didn't have good intentions uh they
02:33:58.820 recognized society was firmly against them and they were radicalized by gamergate so they understood 0.90
02:34:04.620 like listen you know our favorite media is being destroyed by women and sjw's and feminism 0.96
02:34:10.420 and if we don't do something about that we're just gonna have like the gray goo video games forever 0.98
02:34:17.680 that's forever mediocre and gay and that is one of the that was the greatest thing to radicalize 0.51
02:34:23.340 young people and i'll explain why it's not because sargon is based it's not because gamergate you 0.93
02:34:27.660 You know, exposing Anita Sarkeesian was such an epic win, even though it was.
02:34:31.460 It's because you pulled the wool off the young man's eyes, right?
02:34:35.920 Because that's what video games did, right?
02:34:37.540 They kept you in the matrix, in a sense, right?
02:34:40.260 Because you had this endless distraction, which provided you with fake brotherhood,
02:34:45.780 fake sense of achievement, and doing something with your time, right?
02:34:50.400 That included this concept of friends.
02:34:53.660 You know what I mean?
02:34:54.480 people used to meet in lobbies and video games right and those are three things med need to
02:35:00.640 thrive in society those three things brotherhood um commitment and like a sense of achievement
02:35:07.360 right and once you took that away they became angry and vitriolic and they wanted to attack
02:35:13.040 the person who did this to them because they realized oh wow the world is not what it seems
02:35:18.720 uh that you know the land beyond the curtain is not what i was told it was going to be
02:35:23.120 and these people filtered into these guys who told them what they wanted to hear
02:35:27.920 you know what uh you mentioned something very interesting there which is you know you were
02:35:34.480 sort of defining your meeting place as online we used to meet in game lobbies and things like that
02:35:41.020 which is a very distinctly zoomer thing to do um that started with my generation but you know
02:35:46.600 with millennials and it seems silly to demarcate the generation like that because we actually have
02:35:51.700 a lot in common. But online wasn't the primary place where people met. And I know we covered a
02:36:00.420 couple of books, Republic, and Emancipation of Authorship, which is exploring the sort of fifth
02:36:07.660 wave technological revolution that made online spaces and online identities the primary place
02:36:15.020 where people would meet and how that has granted them certain powers to attack authority that you
02:36:22.340 might not have had before, even if you were meeting in salons, even if you were me, because
02:36:27.180 there's always intellectual movements, right? There's always sort of decentralized, you know,
02:36:33.660 thought leaders, and they would communicate. And there's a whole network theory behind that.
02:36:38.720 But one thing that, you know, people would think that the internet revolution empowered the
02:36:44.380 individual. It didn't really, it empowered communities and identities. So it's, this goes
02:36:52.120 kind of deep, but there's this idea of the people and then also the public. So the people were
02:36:57.380 always abstracted. There's no real such thing as the people. And this is where I think Marxists get
02:37:02.900 caught up, but there was always the public sphere. Juergen Habermas talked about this in his book
02:37:08.860 about the transformation of the public sphere, which is basically about the formation of the
02:37:12.020 bourgeoisie as sort of the educated class. So you had the sort of population, then you had this
02:37:17.500 little, this like stratosphere above it. They were still the people, they weren't aristocrats,
02:37:23.320 they weren't princes, but they might be, you know, slightly wealthier, but more educated and more
02:37:28.440 interested in philosophy and these ideas. So they had sort of aristocratic interests, but they
02:37:33.420 didn't really have power, not compared to the center power, not compared to the landed gentry
02:37:39.740 or whoever it might be so what you actually saw in in you know history this was a very you know
02:37:45.960 very fragmented thing but if anything with the information revolution we propagated more publics
02:37:53.080 so there's more there's still the people as this sort of non-entity but that mask can articulate
02:38:00.140 itself way more with way more smaller public domains and make these sorts of communities that
02:38:06.200 have that can weaponize themselves against the power structure more interesting ways and that's 0.99
02:38:11.740 the world that a lot of zoomers came up in that they are completely acclimated to that whereas
02:38:18.800 gen x kind of got into it later um a lot of them would have gotten into the early internet in their
02:38:24.800 30s and 40s millennials like myself would have been when we're teenagers zoomers are raised up
02:38:29.660 that in that sort of environment so there's almost no correlation between any of that and the real
02:38:38.060 world by the real world i mean you know clubs and and if anything our space is kind of trying to
02:38:46.220 recapture that by getting people offline and into more like active clubs manor buns you know whatever
02:38:54.140 they call it shoot just getting out of church groups you know get offline and and reformulate
02:39:00.300 these sorts of relationships um and that's a very long-winded not even a question more of a comment
02:39:07.100 really but i'm wondering what you think about that and if that sounds true to you no it does
02:39:15.100 sound true to me um especially the way you talk about how the internet was able to be used to
02:39:19.660 organized peoples right and different disparate tribes of people so the group i can think of as
02:39:25.880 a prominent example is incels or people who can't get laid um to be more crass right and these are
02:39:31.880 just young men who essentially have kind of realized that like there's nothing in it for 0.80
02:39:37.280 the system and that for them the system hates them uh they're the wrong skin color to receive 0.90
02:39:42.700 sympathy from the progressive apparatus and the only way they could possibly get sympathy or gibbs 0.97
02:39:48.620 is if they truons themselves essentially so it's like total submission total castration 0.83
02:39:53.740 to receive you know your pittance for you know some total submission right and they were kind of 0.98
02:39:59.200 like most of them were kind of like well i don't want to do that so the alternative was um to follow
02:40:05.380 these desperate uh charismatic thought leaders that kind of started with alt-right 1.0 like the
02:40:11.280 very beginning of the trump era in like 2015-2016 you know people like richard spencer james allsup
02:40:17.600 um nick fuentes um vincent james um there's a couple others in there as well trs guys
02:40:24.380 mike enoch these people right and essentially what they captured was essentially what injure
02:40:30.980 tate built his brand off of right it's these young broke men who have no prospects in life
02:40:37.800 and are addicted to prawn and don't want to change themselves and so they're just angry
02:40:44.440 angry young men who have nothing going for themselves and well you have to preoccupy
02:40:50.240 your time with something and it's going to be video games as we just discussed before because 0.98
02:40:53.460 the video games are gay and retarded now so it's going to be abstract political baseness right and 0.95
02:41:01.060 what do i mean by abstract political baseness i mean things like people who convert to islam 0.98
02:41:06.140 because of muhammad beating women with a whip right things like this right abstract reasons
02:41:12.160 which sound based in rad pill to them right but are actually attacking their native culture and 0.79
02:41:18.560 hierarchy and subverting them however they don't really care they're not like bought into the
02:41:23.020 system right because they're so um moved to the fringe right so that's basically an open
02:41:27.620 it's basically like an open taxi you could just take over if you wanted to if you had the will
02:41:33.520 and capital to do it right that's essentially what these people pulled their audiences off of
02:41:38.280 Yeah, that is true. And if you if you look at that human capital, which is aggrieved young men, people are very concerned about where they're going, what they're doing, because they are agents of change, especially if they're white guys. 0.73
02:41:54.060 They're the ones who are troublemakers, usually, especially to the state. And those tend to populate our spaces pretty heavily, not as much as you might think, but I would say the majority still.
02:42:06.460 um but i do wonder if there's two things you can do with that group one you're not supposed to say
02:42:15.000 but the one that you know even the andrew tates like to do is corral them into a plantation where
02:42:21.480 you just kind of feed them content and take their money and offer them courses and things like that
02:42:25.860 it seems that that is always inevitable unless your goal is to weaponize them in some way or
02:42:33.000 direct them away from yourself so it seems in this case the irony would be that you know to
02:42:39.480 take a leadership position for these young men would be to gather them up around you but i think
02:42:44.360 what people are starting to feel it's like well that's a dead end what you want is someone who's
02:42:48.560 going to get people and almost educate them and send them out to better their lives because no
02:42:54.480 one's lives are better by gathering around a content creator that's just that's just that
02:43:00.940 I've seen them come and go.
02:43:03.000 And a lot of the young guys who fall for it,
02:43:04.760 they've never seen it before.
02:43:06.560 But if you're 50 years old,
02:43:07.960 you've probably seen this four times.
02:43:09.520 There's always been Andrew Tate's around.
02:43:12.440 Andrew Tate is just the latest, weirdest version
02:43:15.820 tailor-made for sort of a multi-polarity angle.
02:43:19.640 Like tailor-made for the fact that 0.98
02:43:20.940 the red pill sphere is all like non-white guys now. 0.99
02:43:24.200 And it used to be mostly like white divorced guys 0.90
02:43:27.340 talking about legal problems 1.00
02:43:29.700 and how to like you know rebalance everything and now it's all like black guys making fun of whores 1.00
02:43:36.260 which is good entertainment don't get me wrong we who doesn't like making fun of whores more than me 0.99
02:43:42.500 nobody however it does feel like a lateral step in the whole men's rights you know what are young 0.94
02:43:50.080 men to do uh we're still kind of yelling at whores but what so to to solve the incel problem 0.91
02:43:56.340 you would almost need an anti-leader you need someone who wants to bestow leadership qualities 0.98
02:44:03.320 to everyone they meet which is completely antithetical to how a lot of these guys
02:44:08.080 operate now what do you think about that well yeah that's absolutely true like these kind of
02:44:13.680 ideas outside yourself like things like you have to go work out you have to go be social you have
02:44:19.000 to go make friends like build like networks right and business like life to be successful as a young
02:44:24.500 men because like they do have a point with their grievances they are agreed by the system 0.95
02:44:28.500 they don't have women that's true like here's the thing either you like take action or you 0.99
02:44:34.820 bitch on the internet forever and you vicariously live through andrew tate thinking that somehow 0.99
02:44:39.980 you're going to become him one day so you could be a degenerate like him essentially because that's 1.00
02:44:44.680 what these people are doing right it's living vicariously with this like fake notion in their
02:44:49.040 minds right if they just spend enough time watching their videos or pay enough money
02:44:53.680 at hustlers university hey guys i hate to break it to these guys or maybe i do like to break it to
02:45:00.100 them it doesn't take a whole lot of skill to start an online casino and traffic in very very poor and 1.00
02:45:08.780 very very sad women idiots do it all the time you don't need to be a fucking mit graduate to be a 1.00
02:45:16.400 pimp right you can do it that's a lot of people they choose not to because it's it's reprehensible 1.00
02:45:22.180 it's actually not that cool if you if you see andrew tay with his sunglasses off he looks like
02:45:27.520 a strange loser you know i mean like if there's just no shirt tight enough to actually make this 0.98
02:45:34.080 guy cool he's the type of guy who couldn't even pay a hooker to fuck him so he had to actually 1.00
02:45:40.020 own hookers you know i mean like elon musk he doesn't need to pay for sex andrew tay couldn't 1.00
02:45:45.900 even pay for sex you had to turn women into capital and put them into a bank account so you 0.99
02:45:51.180 could have access to them that's not what you guys want you want you want to and this is one thing i
02:45:55.500 say about incels because i remember the rise of the incel movement a lot of people are like oh 0.60
02:46:00.780 these guys just they just want to get laid why can't they just pay for a prostitute and me when
02:46:07.020 i would listen to them i would always hear they seem to be looking for love more often than not 0.98
02:46:11.340 they want a girlfriend because they know they can go on you know only fan not only fans uh tinder
02:46:18.400 and well they can go watch porn every day of the week if they want to there's like endless 0.98
02:46:22.720 consumption of that garbage you know throwing at their like you know trough essentially right but 0.55
02:46:27.760 what they want is genuine stuff which is hard to come by that's why i don't even like incel because 0.95
02:46:32.680 i remember the first guys who started using incel these really were unhinged men who are pissed off
02:46:39.000 they just couldn't have sex but for me i look at the movement it's like lonely guys but that's 0.90
02:46:44.600 different than guys who are unfuckable and i would argue most incels most incels are also
02:46:50.280 temporarily incels i've seen guys like claim their incels and they just got divorced or something
02:46:55.000 it's like no you you had it and you just you're going through a dry spell but that's not all a
02:46:59.480 dry spell isn't an identity we've all had that look everyone's been divorced every
02:47:06.040 everyone's got two ex-wives you don't need to make a whole political ideology behind it right
02:47:12.060 but i'm curious from your perspective as a zoomer and this is one thing we wanted to talk about i
02:47:16.800 don't know if we talked about last time but where i'm kind of locked away from this where where's
02:47:22.680 the incel thing at are there is that still a problem have people kind of move past that or
02:47:27.340 is that still a big issue for especially young men now i would say it's actually gotten even
02:47:34.660 worse than when we last talked about it um i think the number is like uh three out of ten no it's
02:47:41.580 like five eight out of ten men have had sex in the last year basically and it's only growing right
02:47:47.780 and you can live vicariously through these like online fantasies and that's obviously a part of it
02:47:53.560 but i think the bigger thing is just like the sheer apathy of young white men because on a deep
02:48:01.180 psychological like subconscious level they realize that the system is fundamentally against
02:48:07.640 them and their interest and there's no place for them in the new future so why bother showing up
02:48:13.500 for it when you can have kfc and porn every day and play video games i think that's a bigger
02:48:20.340 deeper subconscious reason for why it's growing why it's a big thing and why it's still a big
02:48:25.980 thing it's not changing because at the end of the day right a lot of the reason men used to
02:48:30.820 forward relationships was because society pressured them to do so otherwise they were going to die
02:48:35.960 and leave no offspring right and also because there was also another reason behind that as
02:48:40.820 well as just because you wanted an offspring even though it's inherently a good thing
02:48:44.100 it's also kind of because um this is my train of thought here it's because you don't want to be a 0.94
02:48:51.760 loser you don't want to be the community um you know dunce at the end of the day like these people
02:48:57.620 have always existed in society right basically the untouchables and undesirables um who are kind 0.91
02:49:04.820 of thrown out and like now that's an attractive identity in the place of anything genuine and
02:49:10.580 meaningful right i think that's the deeper reason why obviously there are ugly people
02:49:15.300 and those people have always existed in society you're always going to have the
02:49:18.520 that one percent of the bell curve right but that's not that's not the majority of these
02:49:24.020 people that's not even like two percent of these people the majority of these people is just sheer
02:49:29.640 apathy yeah and what's interesting is i can you know i'm starting to relate that a bit to the
02:49:36.320 iq bell curve as well because you mentioned the bell curve and this is a position we've taken
02:49:41.640 before in the past it's that uh just for people who haven't heard it um the bell curve popularized
02:49:47.660 by charles murray his book the bell curve a lot of people haven't actually read that book very
02:49:52.780 interesting book. They concentrate on the race part in the middle, which is true and valid and
02:49:58.080 brave. But the message of the book overall is that, yes, there is a bell curve for IQ. It's
02:50:04.960 mostly gathered at average IQ, but there's extremes at both ends. And it's true that the black IQ 1.00
02:50:12.200 bell curve is a couple of standard deviations to the left of the white one. So on average, 0.99
02:50:18.360 their stupider. However, the main takeaway is that despite that, there's still a lot of low IQ 1.00
02:50:25.600 whites, no matter how you slice it. And something needs to be done with them because unskilled labor 1.00
02:50:31.380 is evaporating. We don't have ways for these people to support themselves. And from a system
02:50:38.300 point of view, any system that generates enemies to that system is a broken system. And those
02:50:44.780 systems tend to collapse and you can look at that completely you know on a unemotionally right it's
02:50:52.320 not a value judgment on the system it's just it doesn't work if it generates too many enemies
02:50:56.200 and so if you have a courtship system any or a civilizational system where the that left tail
02:51:05.080 of that bell curve has already exist always existed there's always going to be people too 0.97
02:51:08.200 ugly to fuck right but what we're noticing just like the iq it's that it's swallowing up more and 0.97
02:51:13.840 more of the middle of that bell curve. There's more average people. In the IQ sense, there's 0.99
02:51:19.200 more people of average intelligence who can't find jobs. They are falling into that low IQ
02:51:24.160 bucket functionally. So they're being locked out of what used to be afforded to higher IQ people.
02:51:30.700 So they have strange bedfellows with very low IQ, sometimes criminally insane people. But now
02:51:35.620 there's people who are not ugly and completely unfuckable. Regular guys, regular gals who are 0.99
02:51:42.640 being grouped into that bucket as well and that's that's a system that's unsustainable i think and
02:51:47.660 we can quibble over causes but to me just from a system's point of view this system has generated
02:51:54.060 too many enemies to it and they're going to just destroy it at some point and i don't know what
02:51:59.020 precisely that looks like um that could just be the complete cratering of birth rates uh that could 0.92
02:52:05.380 be uh an epidemic of rape i don't know like there's gonna be some weird shit that happens
02:52:10.880 The only thing that could head that off at the pass are environmental or biological factors. I'm thinking too much plastic in the blood, dropping testosterone levels, crippling apathy and nihilism. Those could stand in the way as well. 0.96
02:52:28.460 But that's also just another type of systems collapse as well.
02:52:32.840 That just means that it cannot be course corrected through sudden or even tyrannical violence, which is used to be what happened in the past.
02:52:42.200 Then what do you think about that?
02:52:44.100 Well, I think you're right.
02:52:44.980 There was a certain YouTuber who I'm not going to name because he's cringe who had a great point about the former, which you just said.
02:52:50.960 um eventually you get to a point with systems um and the way patronage and regime groups
02:52:57.580 client groups of the regime work right where you create such a big people who are outside the bubble 0.78
02:53:03.600 um they have no stake in the system so they could not give a less of a shit if the whole
02:53:09.440 thing burned down right this is like this is where the synonym of um if you don't give the 0.98
02:53:15.280 young men a place at the village they'll burn it down to feel its warmth right and essentially
02:53:19.440 that's what's happened in like western society as a whole when you look at white men but not just
02:53:23.960 western society if you look at like asian societies as well this is a big thing i'm noticing there too
02:53:31.000 it's not exclusively a white thing yeah birth rates are collapsing everywhere and that doesn't
02:53:37.200 get brought up enough and it's been that way for a while and we're even talking india the big i think
02:53:42.660 the only place that isn't doing so bad might be parts of africa but that's being buoyed by just
02:53:48.880 capital infusion and if they were just left to their own devices it would plummet as well
02:53:53.680 south korea all throughout asia all throughout the middle east even as far as i can tell
02:53:59.520 now this trend is going everywhere like even those countries which you bring up the maghrab 1.00
02:54:04.080 countries which have always had the highest birth rates um you know because just low iq people
02:54:08.480 reading even those places are being destroyed and with the creep of modernity and an interesting
02:54:14.720 thing like there's a study out of india where it's like even if you just give a woman like
02:54:20.080 access to soap operas the birth rates go down naturally this has a measurable effect if you
02:54:27.120 give women technology if you give them a place outside the hierarchy where they're supposed to be 0.99
02:54:32.960 right it's like trying to fit a round hole in a square hole it's not going to work and eventually 1.00
02:54:39.200 the mechanisms which keep it in a healthy such equilibrium are going to go out of whack and this
02:54:45.280 is what this is what you see across the western world right and they're just being used that like
02:54:49.280 anger and out of placeness is being used right by the regime as a great political uh megaphone
02:54:58.400 for whatever they want them to be for right i'm just um i'm looking at um a site a page from the
02:55:06.480 the american economic association uh soap operas and fertility evidence from brazil this is just
02:55:12.100 what i pulled up based on what you're saying because i wanted to just check that out and just
02:55:16.300 the abstract we'll have a look at that because i'm not paying for anything ever we estimate the
02:55:21.500 effect of television on fertility in brazil where soap operas portray false small families we exploit
02:55:26.780 differences in the timing women living in areas covered by globo have significantly lower fertility
02:55:32.280 the effect is strongest for women of lower socioeconomic status and in the central and
02:55:37.500 late phases of fertility consistent with stopping behavior uh what else we provide evidence that
02:55:45.140 novellas and not just television affected individual choices based on children's naming
02:55:48.800 patterns and novella content so there is a correlation between by novellas i believe they
02:55:53.960 mean telenovelas which are soap operas in the latin world the latinx world as we call it
02:56:01.080 so i mean that shouldn't be surprising a lot of people would have intuited that
02:56:06.120 on their own but it is interesting just to see that the actual data at least some data based on
02:56:12.040 that i don't know how many other studies there are but you know do you think women take their cues 1.00
02:56:17.560 from pop culture yes you know and doesn't necessarily need to be american that's the 0.99
02:56:22.840 second question because some people will hear that and say oh this is you know the the gae
02:56:28.600 right this is turbo america projecting its values elsewhere i'm like maybe yes maybe no i mean
02:56:36.280 are americans making these sitcoms i mean i don't know you know is is it more is it more or less
02:56:46.440 dangerous i guess is it more or less severe if this is just something that seems to be happening
02:56:51.800 like it does does america need to be connected to creating these cultural trends or is it just
02:56:58.600 something that's kind of happening like it would make sense in south korea but it actually doesn't
02:57:04.480 make that much sense in china right now because you're seeing birth rates totally collapse in
02:57:08.980 china for completely unrelated reasons it seems same thing with russia like we had said so could
02:57:14.520 this be something like we talk about modernity is that just a weapon of the american empire or is it
02:57:19.700 just this i don't know like an existential virus that's hitting everywhere i'm not sure which is
02:57:24.900 worse i'm gonna take the unpopular opinion that many people don't like it america is not the
02:57:30.800 source of all evil in the world i think that's pretty sane person same position to hold um
02:57:36.000 but like as you said in that latter half like the force we call modernity like wokeness
02:57:41.300 progressives and whatever you want to call it is a totalizing force that sees control of not just
02:57:47.260 like the west in some abstract sense even though it does have control of it it seeks total control
02:57:52.740 of the entire world it seeks total submission total control like total theological control
02:57:59.640 of human beings at the most fundamental level anything opposing that must be eliminated must
02:58:06.040 be expunged as a threat essentially this this outside force will destroy every society 1.00
02:58:13.420 we even see that in like you know the based muslim countries and muhammadans right you know 1.00
02:58:19.320 the andrew tay loves to like you know suck off right even in like saudi arabia where they have 0.99
02:58:24.780 extremely strict like conservative laws right we see those being whittled away right we see the 0.97
02:58:30.340 birth rates kind of collapse we see women become more free we see gay gayness be more accepted in 0.99
02:58:37.860 society and what do those things follow they follow total collapse given enough time right 0.97
02:58:43.940 because like again entropy is a real force in society like you have to be constantly pushing
02:58:50.260 against entropy otherwise entropy is going to win by default because entropy is easier
02:58:55.160 yeah you know this reminds me of an interview i just saw recently and don't get mad at me it was
02:59:03.460 lex friedman and he was interviewing uh a biographer of osama bin laden uh one of the
02:59:11.800 few biographers not only of his life but also his writings he made a good point that uh in the wake
02:59:18.600 of 9-11 there actually wasn't a lot of academic or cultural interest in what osama bin laden was
02:59:25.240 actually saying you know the line that even because i'm old enough to remember that period
02:59:30.520 i remember the line was you know they hate us they hate us because they ain't us and they're
02:59:36.040 jealous of us and that's it they're crazy they're fundamentalists and there's still a lot of people
02:59:40.200 that probably believe that but uh he he was he was looking at his writings actually looking at
02:59:46.820 where osama bin lan came from when it was kind of interesting because and this guy was like a former
02:59:50.740 cia guy too so you know take that for what it is but what he had said i thought was interesting
02:59:55.300 because it lines up with a lot of what we know about osama bin lan which is that you know he's
02:59:59.420 from a saudi royal family his entire family was highly educated pretty successful family of
03:00:05.780 engineers he went to school for engineering with something like a western education but they were 0.84
03:00:12.560 still islamic they still believed in in the jihad but their version of jihad was like oh we're going 0.88
03:00:19.640 to build things to help refugees and shit and then he's sort of the black sheep he goes and starts 0.97
03:00:24.820 this whole fucking movement but one thing he had said was that a lot of the most staunch 0.99
03:00:31.700 fundamentalists were products of the sort of new islamic secularism so they were almost products 0.99
03:00:40.100 of modernity and a lot of the islamic scholars didn't like them because they took a very a more
03:00:46.020 extreme approach to the islamic doctrine um i don't know if that's true i'm not totally knowledgeable
03:00:52.260 about that sphere but there you see an interesting an interesting instance where modernity you know
03:00:59.060 was birthing a more extreme islamism you know so it's like you have and but also these would be 0.62
03:01:08.120 the guys who might be dabbling in prostitutes and drugs and you know al-qaeda and the taliban they
03:01:14.120 used to rebel the taliban especially uh and the mujahideen they rebelled against technology at
03:01:20.320 point they were telling stories about how they hated western media they would be ripping up
03:01:25.760 videotapes and cassettes and stringing them from trees and the sort of effigy against technology
03:01:32.100 itself flash forward to now and they have you know almost like hollywood budgets for their
03:01:37.860 propaganda they've embraced multimedia in a way that you know has never is actually probably
03:01:44.200 against their their doctrine so that's in one case where modernity doesn't necessarily mean
03:01:51.240 westernization modernity it was like more extreme islamism but a betrayal of other
03:01:56.520 values at the same time that could i also maybe ironically lead or open the door to
03:02:03.560 lower birth rates to increased secularization in other areas as well just what that's just
03:02:09.640 one example that's spraying to mind no i think it's a very cogent point i think that reaction
03:02:16.600 uh you speak of is actually something we call like anti-body resistance right because every
03:02:23.880 society and country no matter like how like a much a they are does have this like
03:02:30.120 seemingly have this force of antibodies which seek to protect the core right from like degeneracy
03:02:37.240 basically the societal like suicide switch right which is basically what's going on in the west
03:02:41.440 right where you reach this level of total degeneracy and like total hedonism where
03:02:46.280 essentially the society is set to kill itself right it doesn't breed doesn't produce anything
03:02:51.460 doesn't produce anything new it stagnates and declines and the results are predictable from
03:02:58.460 there so societies have something akin to antibodies would seek to try to fight those
03:03:04.700 forces of modernization and like foreign ideas foreign film new technologies would seek to
03:03:11.740 uproot and change sometimes like centuries or even hundred years of tradition and uproot their
03:03:18.220 societies into something completely new no yeah i i agree completely um so just to circle back to
03:03:27.180 the the incel thing um is that something that you would is was that a topic at let's say the old
03:03:33.660 glory club conference is that something that still gets talked about amongst uh your friends
03:03:38.880 or your your circles not on the intellectual level of the speakers and general conference
03:03:45.720 goers but in discord chats and telegram chats and space is less um less academic and less
03:03:52.860 intellectual and more um meme space yes the incel talk is still very much discussed on a regular
03:03:59.220 basis just because like it's such a lived reality for so many people uh especially young people
03:04:06.080 that you can't really ignore it in the sense if you're young and you like know where these people
03:04:11.640 congregate like you see the effects like their presence has on society even if they don't like
03:04:17.660 themselves speak their force and what they're doing to society does speak for itself in a sense
03:04:23.740 it was interesting um i'm not sure you caught this but i think it was last week i did a live
03:04:30.720 stream panel and actually i discussed this with the prudentialist on our last live stream as well
03:04:35.120 um but i did big live stream with um laric the barbarian and prudentialist and john doyle
03:04:41.160 and steve sailor and uh another a baby boomer named uh herb and it's supposed to be boomers
03:04:48.260 versus zoomers sort of bridging the generational divide and figuring out ways to pass the torch
03:04:53.240 from boomers to the young people um and one thing that we encountered what there's a few walls there 0.82
03:05:00.440 that i don't think older generations were willing to move past and one of them would have been the
03:05:05.960 incel thing which is if you talk to them about they're just young young people aren't having sex
03:05:11.480 what's up with them well they just do it you know so there's sort of a a conceptual block there we
03:05:17.480 have to say no they want to but they can't like you need to really explain the entire culture
03:05:22.360 which they are completely removed from to get them to understand why that's
03:05:26.320 happening. Because to the older generations,
03:05:28.140 this is just a weird random thing that's happening.
03:05:32.300 And they're the ones who possess a lot of the capital and influence.
03:05:36.560 And, you know, the, they,
03:05:38.200 they're still oftentimes in the organs of power in society.
03:05:41.080 And you had said something very interesting, which is that, you know, 1.00
03:05:44.820 do zoomers take advice from older generations? And yeah, 0.70
03:05:48.600 I wanted to hear what you thought about that.
03:05:50.180 what do you think about older generations giving advice and what's your experience there well i
03:05:56.040 think knowledge transference right is is a very good and like old tradition of the west right
03:06:02.260 even when you go back just like 50 you know 60 years sometimes this was a tradition of like the
03:06:08.260 grandfather or father would hand down the knowledge that his father and his grandfather taught his
03:06:12.820 son like it could be simple as things like a natural like medicinal like recipe to cure poison
03:06:19.440 ivy or something like how to change a carburetor on a car like how to properly shoot a gun like how
03:06:29.280 to hunt like how to like be successful in life to where you're you're you're a net positive to
03:06:36.460 society and not a net negative uh you know useless eater essentially right and that was very common
03:06:43.260 and that was an expected thing that was the younger generations were supposed to receive right 1.00
03:06:48.780 and essentially what we saw with the baby boomers
03:06:51.520 going back to the baby boomers
03:06:53.500 here was like that kind of got 0.99
03:06:55.340 thrown out the window essentially 1.00
03:06:57.300 with the baby boomers 1.00
03:06:58.820 because what you had with the baby boomers 0.99
03:07:01.280 was they were born into this most unique situation
03:07:03.680 where the US
03:07:05.280 became the like one of the two
03:07:07.220 sole superpowers in the world
03:07:08.860 and like the US economy just had
03:07:11.260 this renaissance of just
03:07:13.140 new capital coming into
03:07:15.420 it and manufacturing after World War II
03:07:17.540 and like land was cheap houses were cheap and the income of an average baby boomer so we're
03:07:25.200 not talking about higher middle class upper middle class here we're talking about your
03:07:28.660 average joe here who works at like the local steel miller walmart of the time right somebody
03:07:34.960 who's not like a wealthy person like below 100k even sometimes these people on average could
03:07:41.520 afford like a house that was 120 000 within a year or two of their salary were able to support them 0.90
03:07:48.400 in like three kids yeah and one thing that occurred to me baby boomers and i don't want to
03:07:57.920 hammer them too much here but there's something interesting about them and maybe even their
03:08:01.600 parents as well they are truly products of the industrial revolution so and we were kind of
03:08:07.840 of touching on this earlier in the interview here, but they believe that, oh, it's just something
03:08:12.680 that you do. You know, you graduate school, then you get married, then you have kids, and one leads
03:08:18.400 to the other as if it were an automatic sequence. And they truly believed in that automatic sequence.
03:08:26.160 And it almost never betrayed them once they were in it. You know, sometimes it did, but they still
03:08:30.960 believed in that sequence generally. And I don't believe that we believe in that sequence anymore.
03:08:37.840 And there's a couple of reasons for that.
03:08:39.160 But I think one is that we don't really subscribe
03:08:41.820 to the Industrial Revolution model of production anymore.
03:08:45.820 We're an information-based society,
03:08:47.620 so it's a matrix or a network-based thing.
03:08:50.580 So it demands more interactivity.
03:08:53.360 Our understanding of society is a lot more nuanced
03:08:55.980 and zoomed in.
03:08:57.940 So we actually, no young person believes at all.
03:09:00.840 Ask them if they graduate school, 0.99
03:09:02.300 if they can't even expect a fucking job. 1.00
03:09:04.680 No one believes that anymore. 0.99
03:09:05.780 now no one believes that if I get married like maybe I have kids and maybe I don't that's not
03:09:10.320 for certain anymore there's zero certainty levels of this circuit and people have kind of realized
03:09:17.320 that it's actually this multi you know let to this thing and so I think that's where people
03:09:24.060 are kind of overwhelmed that there is no if then sequence anymore to society and that's where baby 0.80
03:09:30.900 boomers i think in older generations if they're still around they that's their fundamental 0.89
03:09:36.340 disconnect it's that the society that they live in was one that if you work you get reward that's
03:09:42.620 just what happens how could that not happen and i think millennials gen x too probably they
03:09:48.340 there's no correlation between work and reward anymore like and so how do you you know how can
03:09:56.540 you feel good about doing anything and that might sound kind of dour but what do you think about 1.00
03:10:01.320 that no i think you're pointing to a very real phenomenon here that like the baby boomers like
03:10:07.020 experienced this most like a unique time essentially in history this like um you know
03:10:12.540 steel steel needle in a haystack right where like everything on the assembly line worked right for
03:10:18.620 like 99 of them right and that obviously produced the people who were obviously totally loyal to
03:10:25.000 the regime in power because the regime in power brought them untold prosperity you know a new 0.56
03:10:31.020 house a new car three children a wife right which you had sex with regularly like a society that
03:10:37.000 was healthy right a community a church all these things were a given that it wasn't even a question
03:10:42.440 they were going to be there right and so those people when you're highly bred up with that
03:10:47.220 mindset and the idea that the comp the conveyor belt is working towards a positive end aren't
03:10:53.660 going to give up that idea very easily and as like we know as you grow older the effort it takes to
03:10:59.220 change your perceptions and ideas increases to a point where it's basically impossible to change
03:11:04.360 a person's mind and we see that in the graphs on this idea and that's what's such a happy to be
03:11:10.280 boomers and like this is the reason why gen you know younger gen millennials and like zoomers 0.62
03:11:16.480 just don't believe in that at all because they realize from a very early age that like 0.92
03:11:22.400 these promises the baby boomers and gen x were telling them were never going to happen um and
03:11:29.420 what essentially was the catalyst for that was 9-11 because what 9-11 did was it kind of shook 0.56
03:11:35.240 us out of like the echoes of the 90s right where that world could still be possible you know you
03:11:41.700 could still afford a house on a hundred thousand dollar salary you still have like two kids and
03:11:45.720 like your your community was okay you know for if you just put in the bare amount of work right
03:11:51.280 that you were going to inherit and like that essentially that was all ripped up and destroyed
03:11:55.960 and essentially the revolution like hit full steam at that point and all these like things
03:12:01.600 essentially became obstacles to the like the total state as Aaron McIntyre likes to call it
03:12:06.620 so they were assimilated and destroyed and those promises became mute that like that social 0.85
03:12:12.340 construct was ripped up and so zoomers don't recognize the legitimacy of it at all yeah and 0.95
03:12:18.460 that leads me to i guess my next question which is i was building to it's that for young people 0.89
03:12:23.580 young men especially now there is this yearning for the traditional to be revived especially in
03:12:31.420 romantic relationships right everyone wants to find the type of girl that might have existed in 0.88
03:12:37.200 the fucking 50s or something um and one does wonder we talked about a lot of very distinct 0.98
03:12:44.660 pressures that are being exerted upon young people now you know you got the plastic in your blood 1.00
03:12:49.340 you got the dropping testosterone drop crater it's not just in your blood it's in your balls 0.98
03:12:54.160 don't forget that right right there in the balls sperm counts are dropping that's a big thing what's 0.99
03:12:58.820 happening to the female reproduction system that reproductive system rather uh there's a lot of 1.00
03:13:04.060 estrogen in the water supply that's not good i don't know what to do about that um so there's
03:13:08.740 a lot of that but what i'm trying to get is that i think these generations and include millennials
03:13:14.520 here are fundamentally more broken than any time in the past um you know people are fatter too 0.95
03:13:21.280 that's another one i mean you could list things off for fucking days but i'm thinking like can 0.89
03:13:25.920 fundamentally broken people even achieve any sort of tradition um and do they need to you know work 0.83
03:13:35.360 with what they've got even though it's not ideal and that's a dangerous thing to say because a lot
03:13:41.480 people in our spaces and i i hear them they're saying like no you need to have your values you
03:13:45.240 have your principles i don't want to marry a a weird up girl um you know but the odd honestly
03:13:52.120 like if you're in the day market now the odds of finding a woman who's not some level of feminist 0.98
03:13:57.640 are pretty low um you're seeing a lot of people women especially exit the only fans cycle which 1.00
03:14:04.680 which is good because they realize they're being e-whores for zero dollars. 1.00
03:14:11.180 But you're probably going to find one or two. 0.81
03:14:13.720 You're going to find the perfect girl who maybe had an OnlyFans account for a while.
03:14:18.240 And I'm not trying to say that guys need to make peace with that,
03:14:22.340 but I am wondering, there's a feminine perspective there 0.99
03:14:25.700 where even the guys are kind of weird and fucked up too. 0.95
03:14:28.760 And no one's perfect right now. 0.94
03:14:30.860 And at what point do we have to put...
03:14:33.880 Because people throughout time have dealt with these pressures.
03:14:37.020 And when I was on King Pilled not long ago, we were talking about this very same topic.
03:14:42.820 And people could find that live on his channel.
03:14:45.200 We also had that on one of our episodes.
03:14:47.380 I was just hypothesizing.
03:14:49.520 And I said, you know, after, for one example, after the fall of Berlin was the rape of Berlin after World War II,
03:14:58.120 where something to the tune of 200,000 women were raped and the abortion clinics were filled up.
03:15:02.940 They're raped by invading Soviet soldiers and probably some American soldiers too.
03:15:07.600 So if you're a German man, you had to deal with the reality that you were living in a
03:15:12.120 fundamentally broken society at that point.
03:15:14.600 Military occupation, humiliation, your women have been defiled.
03:15:19.860 And do you allow that to be the end of the German civilization?
03:15:24.220 And this has been the problem presented to many societies throughout history, especially
03:15:29.040 those conquered societies especially those conquered societies who got out of it later
03:15:33.500 and so i was just wondering i'm like you know things aren't right now as bad as that obviously
03:15:39.640 i'm not trying to say that they were but you know at a certain point do you have to say okay at a
03:15:44.740 certain point we need to just have families with what we got and you can rank the women however
03:15:49.440 you want like they need to be a virgin highly unlikely that you're going to find that especially 0.99
03:15:56.920 if they're like in their mid-20s so you got to make peace with that now they don't need to have 0.97
03:16:01.280 a body count in the fucking 20s but i think there is some readjustment of values that has to occur 0.90
03:16:09.400 i don't know like is what i'm saying makes sense or what do you think about that 0.99
03:16:12.480 no i think it makes logical sense this like notion that like you know traditionalists like
03:16:18.000 zoomers and millennials are at clinging on to like you know like copium essentially snorting it
03:16:22.720 by the kilo is like this idea that like your your murdoch you know your murdoch chan is just out 0.98
03:16:28.800 there if you just look for her you know if you just look hard enough she's out there you know 0.94
03:16:33.200 undefiled by modernity and like saving her virginity you know for a internet schizophrenic
03:16:39.260 who uh studies uh the austrian painter uh with his free time right and that's a very unhealthy
03:16:46.360 like mental space to be in because like it puts you in a place where you can't actually do things
03:16:52.640 proactively like you kind of have to understand that like listen we're children of the ashes here 0.67
03:16:57.600 most women are whores most women have done only fans most women have more have more than one 0.99
03:17:02.460 partner unfortunately that's the society we live in and like is it ideal fuck no it's not but like 1.00
03:17:09.540 you you have to do something here because like again society is not guaranteed to you 0.93
03:17:15.180 you know your your country is not guaranteed to you you have to you have to fight and earn it
03:17:20.040 actually yeah and that's what each generation does just to be you know gender balanced here
03:17:28.060 you know one uh one example of how what women have to deal with it's like the men who have been
03:17:34.000 you know poisoned by pornography and that's not a judgment that's something that i would argue most 0.99
03:17:39.920 guys go through even my generation went through that because we were hit like a fucking freight 0.98
03:17:45.240 train with free pornography there was a time when porn wasn't free on the internet and then one day 0.93
03:17:49.340 just was and i don't know how it happened and then a lot of guys went through that ringer
03:17:54.620 but a lot of guys you know if they get in a serious relationship if you're a woman they're
03:17:58.620 going to come with some weird fetish not all of them but more than there used to be i bet there's
03:18:04.060 a lot more foot guys than there's ever been in the past so that's just a weird broken thing that
03:18:09.340 people need to deal with now but you know it's the propagation of the species
03:18:15.180 at the end of the day you know and not to say that you need
03:18:19.340 like we do need standard to have an idea of who you wouldn't date but i'm also not trying to make
03:18:25.620 the argument at some make which like you'll be a man just date her flaws and all i'm like okay well
03:18:30.940 there need to be some flaws that you wouldn't date just like women with men you know like
03:18:34.960 it's okay to have standards but i'm thinking that you know there needs to be a bit more blurring
03:18:40.560 around the edges if it is going to get as bad as i think it is like the numbers keep getting worse
03:18:46.500 year over year with people women now too just not having sex which doesn't mean that the hypergamy
03:18:53.060 rule has been broken it doesn't mean that they're not at the very top the hottest people aren't
03:18:57.780 still around but there are troubling numbers that i think we need to reckon with at some point
03:19:04.820 but you know on the other hand um this is based on the data that i've seen it does seem that
03:19:12.100 white people of a certain socioeconomic status are the ones totally breaking the fertility rate rule
03:19:20.100 and i think that is ideologically and maybe even religiously driven like people who are choosing
03:19:25.860 you know for maybe even eugenics purposes to have seven ten kids and i think that's interesting i
03:19:32.820 think that the only people who are breaking that rule are like not even the super wealthy whites
03:19:37.460 it's like elon musk who's just having 20 kids for the heck of it but you know like middle class
03:19:43.940 people who are doing it and i think it's for you know it's not just by accident is what i'm saying
03:19:48.920 no these things are done by an intention and usually a deep conviction and like when you
03:19:54.780 look at those like subgroups in modernity which have a replacement rate that's above like one
03:20:00.260 nick chicken nugget essentially right is these these groups are deeply they usually have a deep 0.87
03:20:05.880 religious and like national like component to them right so a great example was like the amish
03:20:11.440 right the amish right deep they're a deeply like culturally um homogenous group like ethnic germans 0.54
03:20:18.180 who are anabaptist right and they cling to that very seriously when you look at their birth rates 0.99
03:20:22.920 it's above like one chicken mcnugget essentially and you see their population growing uh while 0.69
03:20:30.340 these secular uh whites do not grow but there's other groups of this too which buck the trend
03:20:35.760 right and it's usually like conservative catholics who have a deep conviction that
03:20:40.400 they want to like repopulate their church with base people the future generations right and
03:20:46.280 they're gonna have to be the ones who do this or it's you know like you know nationalist men in 0.83
03:20:51.300 europe in france and germany who are like well if they're going to import you know the muslims 0.83
03:20:57.540 and muhammadans like you have to do your job to produce a counter to this like threat and that 1.00
03:21:03.660 means you have to like have white babies uh which is something most people don't want to hear for 0.80
03:21:08.960 some reason uh because which is interesting because like the way i look at it you know
03:21:14.660 if we're trying to put a positive spin on this what we are experiencing right now is sort of um
03:21:19.220 eugenic bottleneck where that's having kids and this was kind of the unfortunate i'm not a pro
03:21:27.340 abortion guy but it did seem that certain groups that we would like to have abortions were having
03:21:33.120 the most abortions um and i say good for them i just don't want our guys doing it but we are
03:21:38.940 seeing sort of a genetic bottleneck where the types of people who you would want reproducing
03:21:44.060 are the ones who are doing it completely which is the ones who are like saying i want my legacy 0.56
03:21:49.020 to survive i need to find a woman of good stock and good character to do it with and have this 0.67
03:21:54.980 many kids because i'm trying to build something you know with that you know we mentioned charles
03:21:59.760 haywood i think he he's kind of on that tip but there's other guys who are doing it but it's not
03:22:04.060 accidental and it's not on that sort of automatic boomer conveyor belt which is this is just what
03:22:10.060 you do it's like a you know i need to do it like it's homework there's i think and honestly this
03:22:15.120 is what i'm seeing especially with my generation and i'm curious to hear what you think i'm seeing
03:22:20.300 more young men who are excited about being fathers and this was not what i saw at all with a lot of
03:22:28.940 the baby boomers even the ones who are good fathers they just kind of saw it as uh even
03:22:33.700 marriage itself they saw as like a dull obligation but i don't know i'm curious i know there's some
03:22:39.920 boomers that might push back on that but like i'm seeing a lot of like young guys who are really
03:22:44.040 really excited about some say with that some would say that's even bad that that's too feminine
03:22:48.160 however that's just something i'm noticing um and i think that goes hand in hand with the incel
03:22:52.820 thing like there's more guys saying that i just want to get laid it's like i want to be a dad
03:22:59.120 which i don't i you know maybe that wasn't as common in the past what do you think about that
03:23:03.640 well i don't know if it was more common um but i think what we're seeing here is a genuine like
03:23:10.120 rediscovery like you call it traditionalism radicalism you know um reactionaryism essentially
03:23:17.360 right which whatever ideologies behind it is you see this like group of gen z it's like 30 or 40
03:23:23.340 who is just completely against the system completely understands like the program they
03:23:29.080 have for them in life and is like i don't want that that's not the life i want i don't want to
03:23:33.600 become a useless bug man who consumes vouch content and watches coke cola all day right
03:23:39.340 like i want a higher calling i want something deeper right i want something outside myself 0.81
03:23:45.220 right it's this idea of like um planting the oak tree whose shade you shall never enjoy
03:23:51.860 but your your offspring shall enjoy it but you shall not idea right like recurring to the surface
03:24:00.080 again this used to be a much more common idea in the west right because the west used to be called
03:24:04.420 christendom for a reason and there was a deeply religious conviction behind it that was driving
03:24:10.440 this notion now obviously as the west became more secular in the in the 19th century it kind of
03:24:17.360 became like you said an obligation to have children it was what was expected it was what a
03:24:23.360 upstanding man of the middle class and upper middle class was expected to do
03:24:28.260 and like obviously that was going to produce subpar results uh no matter which way you look
03:24:33.540 at it and people who were enthusiastic about accepting responsibility and like producing
03:24:39.640 something beyond themselves like they're much better parents when you look at the quality of
03:24:44.980 their children too it's much higher they tend to read much more books they tend to like play sports
03:24:50.240 more they tend to be much more physically impressive they tend to just be like better
03:24:54.200 people overall like quality wise and i think that's going to have a component too in the future
03:24:59.720 yeah and that's one thing i noticed especially with my grandfather but a lot of people's
03:25:06.380 grandfathers like they thought that being hands off with raising the children was the way to go
03:25:12.440 you know that's the man's job the masculine thing to do but then they would complain later that
03:25:18.600 they're just treated like a wallet you know they're only treated like oh i'm here for my money
03:25:22.820 and it's like well that that is the consequence and that was an unfortunate consequence for them
03:25:27.380 to learn but also you have to think you know if you want to take a misogynistic angle which i do
03:25:32.180 it's like if I'm a man why do I want my kids raised by a single mom imagine imagine kids
03:25:38.080 raised by a woman the thought of it should shivers down your spine you know so if you're a father 0.91
03:25:45.920 it's like you kind of want to be involved just to make sure that your kids come out all right
03:25:51.140 and I think that that's the angle that I take in raising but I think there's more young people
03:25:57.400 willing to do that now and you could say that even emerges from a eugenics or eugenicists uh
03:26:03.320 perspective which is i want to create a good genetic stock to do something with it not just
03:26:09.000 again out of you know boring obligation and then surrendering those kids to the state because
03:26:15.320 another phenomenon you're seeing in society is like the there's always been the homeschooling
03:26:20.520 movement but the homeschooling movement in my view and i deal off and on again with homeschooling
03:26:27.240 advocates and groups up where i am uh it's bigger than ever before there's more people willing to
03:26:32.440 check out that system and i think the desire to pull for parents to pull kids out of public
03:26:39.320 institutions i don't the numbers to back this up but i think it's got to be as high as ever and
03:26:45.080 again because people don't trust institutions they don't believe in the conveyor belt of society 1.00
03:26:50.040 so they feel like but there are groups that will still do that like most you know indians arabs 0.50
03:26:55.880 blacks they have no problem just trusting in the system still even though they claim they hate the
03:27:01.280 system they still kind of implicitly believe in its bureaucracy and we don't and i think that itself
03:27:07.260 is almost a eugenicist better stock that will survive that bottleneck which is kind of what
03:27:13.320 i was getting at before and that you know this could be a beneficial thing but if you're the
03:27:18.840 type who listens to these interviews or this content you're probably the type of person
03:27:22.680 who, even if you see yourself as an incel, you imagine yourself breaking out of it for that
03:27:28.800 purpose. So I think that's really the, even though it's kind of depressing for them right
03:27:34.920 now, it's like that sort of drive, I think will probably see you through that bottleneck.
03:27:38.780 As long as you look at it, you know, like I'm trying to find a woman to start a family with 0.99
03:27:44.140 and literally write down what values you think they need to have aside from, you know, looking
03:27:49.940 hot although that's good as well that's why that whole discourse on beautiful mids is so good i
03:27:55.780 never thought it had to be said but yeah beautiful mids mids are great get them in get get a girl
03:28:01.940 whose eyes are slightly too far apart you'll be fine no i i think i agree with you very much in
03:28:09.540 that regard um this like higher calling and sensitivity this thing you know overcoming the
03:28:15.380 the janic bottleneck like that drives in like let me give you an example like young men who are
03:28:21.880 losers for a lot of parts of their lives like will have this calling at sometimes where they'll break
03:28:27.560 out of it and it'll be just this this fire that drives them that like says like listen you are 1.00
03:28:33.140 going to be a dead end and there will be no more of you unless you get your ass off the couch and 1.00
03:28:39.880 go do the hard shit necessary that makes you attractive enough for a woman who wants to 1.00
03:28:44.860 breed with you essentially and there's also other higher components to it as well but like that's a 0.99
03:28:50.500 big component like like that's a big drive for why men improve themselves is this idea of their 0.55
03:28:57.260 like being worthy of having offspring like you have to attract the opposite sex um and you're 0.98
03:29:03.760 not going to do that when you have a 30 pound cheeto cut and you play call of duty in our like
03:29:09.080 level 55 prestige i'm sorry that this isn't attractive um you know idea and you know what
03:29:16.420 just uh uh stop there for a second because i do want to mention that one thing i've noticed um
03:29:22.900 and we did a whole arc on our show about um you know food additives and you know vaccines and 0.91
03:29:29.740 things like that but uh one thing you notice and everyone shows the fuck what was it there's an 0.58
03:29:34.540 episode where we reviewed this really great series of articles about what was leading to the obesity 0.93
03:29:38.380 epidemic. And it doesn't actually have anything to do with people's diets. Because people are
03:29:43.840 eating healthier than they've ever eaten before. They're eating healthier than the boomers did. 0.98
03:29:48.740 Boomers ate loads of bread, loads of bacon, loads of fat. And it's like, well, what's what's causing 0.98
03:29:55.380 the obesity epidemic? Because and you would see photos of the baby boomers on a beach and like
03:30:00.020 everyone's in shape. There's no fat people. You walk around, it's kind of rare to see a fat person.
03:30:04.820 but now everyone is technically fat um and one and also even the guys who do take their fitness
03:30:12.940 seriously it seems that they need to work five times harder to get in shape to get like a used
03:30:20.060 to be you can go to a gym rarely and lift a bit and it would show but now like you listen to a
03:30:25.780 lot of fitness guys and this is something i'm into as well because you know i've got a home gym and
03:30:29.980 stuff like you have to put a microscope to your diet and count macros and do like go to the gym
03:30:36.120 every single day to be fit for a lot of people which is fucking insane but anyway it was this 0.62
03:30:41.320 article that was it named four reasons why people actually just do struggle to lose weight even 0.54
03:30:48.600 though they're healthier than ever before and have better habits one was actually estrogen
03:30:52.360 in the water supply another one is lithium um lithium the presence of lithium in the water
03:30:59.440 supply as well uh seed oils was another big one uh the move to seed oils and corn and everything
03:31:05.480 there was a fourth one that escapes my mind but the main thing was like it's actually has more
03:31:11.900 to do with even when you eat healthy food there are these like biological presences in the food
03:31:16.360 that just make everyone kind of fat and so it it does suck that if you want to even the people who
03:31:23.560 want to be fit and have drive and discipline like a lot of them have to make you have to make that 0.97
03:31:29.360 your entire fucking life so it's hard just to make yourself into a specimen a lot of the time
03:31:34.060 i mean that is a good point you bring up there but it's kind of like what's the alternative here 0.99
03:31:40.000 exactly like i don't know i don't know how to clean the water like that's the other thing
03:31:43.940 people talk about oh there's plastic in the in your blood and the water and lithium and birth
03:31:47.840 control i'm like i haven't heard a single person talk about how we can clean the water from that 0.99
03:31:53.040 that just seems like like that's the ultimate black peeling thing i'm like like we're fucked 0.65
03:31:58.160 in that sense what do you do well there's no good answers uh to that question uh there's a lot of 0.97
03:32:04.780 bitching and moaning about how hard it is um and maybe some water filters would help out with that
03:32:10.460 but like at the end of the day like they i think they even did this study where like they took
03:32:14.580 glass water bottles right which have premium like seltzer water in them right and they still find
03:32:20.320 microplastics in them so you're not safe even if you like go for this healthier option which is
03:32:25.840 more expensive right you're not safe now consider this if everyone became an alcoholic and i mean
03:32:35.500 a fall down drunk and we also had no drunk driving laws just to make it easier would that solve the
03:32:42.660 plastic and the blood dilemma and also the birth rate crisis like i think a drunk america can
03:32:49.840 accomplish a lot of these tasks i think if america if every american is drunk for a year
03:32:54.460 once people you know emerge from their blackout state a lot of these problems are gone
03:33:01.340 yeah people are like oh ha ha hearty har har dimes but really though i think you go you're
03:33:10.960 gonna leave this dream you're gonna go think about you're gonna dream about it a real drunk
03:33:16.100 america like like you used to have that was america for the longest time everyone was drunk 0.99
03:33:21.060 and smoking cigarettes and things got done oh that's a meme opinion well i am a fucking meme 0.84
03:33:27.000 so but am i wrong i mean here's the thing though even like the men i met the ogc conference are 0.90
03:33:34.460 big on this like listen america runs on alcohol and tobacco whether you like it or not and like
03:33:40.640 the society that like consumed those things on a daily basis was extremely healthy based had a
03:33:47.060 massive empire great great great architecture hot women like was some a place you wanted to live in
03:33:55.500 and even if they're not hot women they'll get hot if you're drunk enough like people you gotta think 0.92
03:34:01.760 this all the way down to the bottom you want to talk about remigration remigration makes a lot 0.97
03:34:09.580 more sense when you're fucking blitzed well here's the other thing you're like drunk thesis is like 0.86
03:34:16.100 well clearly whatever we're fucking doing like isn't working and people want to go go into 0.98
03:34:21.280 suicide pods essentially over living in our current time so clearly anything is better than 0.95
03:34:27.380 that is my thing honestly even if you like your basic thesis is like we should be smoking cigarettes
03:34:33.620 all day well that actually might work we may be a good a applicable solution compared to
03:34:39.660 the modernity we live in where uh suicide pods and becoming a true are the hallmarks of our day 0.52
03:34:47.160 yeah everyone out there fucking loves science why don't we just try it it's called an experiment 0.58
03:34:54.540 and maybe it fails but then we'll know this whole thing yeah my whole thing is like i quit drinking 0.96
03:35:01.980 like four years ago so this whole ideology is me like i should start drinking heavily and smoking
03:35:06.500 cigarettes again that's going to be my politics no it's i'm i'm being an agent of change honey
03:35:15.460 well consider this right i mean like the the area of change we have today uh wants people to uh
03:35:25.920 liquidate themselves and their traditions and culture and produces the people who are so 0.76
03:35:31.800 apathetic and so dysgenic 1.00
03:35:34.200 that they can't even find the 1.00
03:35:35.860 fucking motivation 1.00
03:35:36.780 to go breed with their own women 1.00
03:35:39.480 they have to go find that in Asia or 0.99
03:35:41.760 something and they don't even believe
03:35:43.800 in a future for them and they're like
03:35:45.620 offspring right so
03:35:47.760 even if you like your basic thesis is completely
03:35:49.880 wrong it doesn't produce anything
03:35:51.420 it probably is still more successful
03:35:53.860 than what we're doing
03:35:54.780 there's a lot of people and I'm
03:35:57.880 up here in Canada and there's a lot
03:35:59.820 of people who are very seriously talking about abandoning the country and they might be able to
03:36:04.900 trace their roots back you know 10 generations canada's not as technically as old as america
03:36:11.440 but there's a lot of like very strong bloodlines here and um there's people who you would never
03:36:18.540 imagine talking about leaving the country just because it's gotten so bad and you know my co-host
03:36:23.480 is vehemently opposed to that and uh so am i in the sense i'm like there's nowhere to run to
03:36:29.400 you know um there's a lot of like nat you'll see nationalists be like we should run away to eastern
03:36:35.820 europe for a while you know and maybe that sounds good in the moment but you know being an immigrant
03:36:43.080 isn't easy you know what i mean like we have this idea of like oh well we're americans we're 0.99
03:36:47.620 canadians like they're gonna love us there it's like no you're just a fucking foreigner you're 0.97
03:36:51.800 just a guy there to like take jobs and speak the language poorly and bring in your own culture 0.99
03:36:58.080 they don't like i'm like you're never going to be comfortable um so and i always come back to that
03:37:03.920 like it doesn't matter if the houses are cheaper it doesn't matter like oh you go there with 10
03:37:07.600 grand and you could have a whole harem of slaves i'm like yeah but they're not going to be my
03:37:13.680 slaves like i want to be able to have a higher class of slave i want to be i want to have a
03:37:18.640 mansion that isn't you know filled with child bones you know little things like that you know 0.66
03:37:24.160 you're not going to get that in bolivia you're not going to get that like that you're going to get
03:37:27.920 weird haunting things in these countries that you flee to so you know you can't run i think that was
03:37:34.560 um i've seen some people talk about that on twitter it's like you know you can't run away
03:37:40.160 you know they'll never leave you alone so act accordingly right well yes there's many problems
03:37:46.560 with the the like curtis jarvin idea or like the expat idea let's become expats in our own countries
03:37:52.560 because like things are so bad and there's no hope for anything that we should just go ahead
03:37:56.960 and go flee to uh south america eastern europe because um well it's easier brah and uh my money
03:38:04.260 goes farther there essentially idea and there's two major problems with that number one the 1.00
03:38:10.580 progressive menace which is eating your society alive as you like sit there and like do fuck all 0.98
03:38:16.020 to do anything about it usually for most people 0.99
03:38:18.320 is coming
03:38:20.420 for that place too.
03:38:22.720 There's nowhere where you can run
03:38:24.260 where it's not coming for you.
03:38:26.340 Again, the idea that
03:38:28.060 there's one safe place you can go, even 0.98
03:38:30.180 Russia, the idol 1.00
03:38:32.420 of the third worldists, 0.92
03:38:34.140 Russia is becoming paused too 0.95
03:38:36.480 and we see the infiltration of modernity
03:38:38.380 there as well, although it's on a slower timeline.
03:38:41.340 Again, there is no
03:38:42.220 place where you can go
03:38:43.560 where modernity is not seeking
03:38:45.560 to uproot and like consume it there's no place you could go for that you have to destroy the
03:38:52.540 modernity itself to save your society it's like it's like saying you can reason with cancer
03:38:57.740 so that it won't kill you no that's not how this works that's not how reality works yeah
03:39:03.900 and also like we were talking about before um the transition to the sort of fifth wave
03:39:10.680 information-based culture has given many individuals more power than I think they're
03:39:18.420 used to in the past. But one problem that we have is that we tend to talk about everything
03:39:24.120 metapolitically. And when we talk about collapse, and by metapolitically, I mean not just in
03:39:29.520 everyday politics and parties and politicians, but almost like when Spengler was talking about
03:39:36.140 civilizations like these vast organisms these huge broad strokes and so when you say like
03:39:41.580 something like modernity will collapse and when modernity collapses traditionalism will take over
03:39:47.240 as if these are organisms unto themselves that just move under their own power forgetting that
03:39:54.600 it just takes people to do these things like tradition isn't just some spirit that will be
03:39:59.620 revived on its own it takes people to revive it and to live it and to actualize it every day and
03:40:05.020 that could be you that could be you and your family but like i was saying before and this
03:40:09.040 is something i always come back to like you need to figure out what traditionalism if you want to
03:40:14.340 call it that makes sense um and this is why you know you see so many conversations about vitalism
03:40:20.640 you know and i've got some issues with the vitalism because you know i'll get into that
03:40:25.060 in a later episode but at the core of it they're trying to identify like what is it about that
03:40:32.360 which reproduces that is beautiful and positive like they're trying to like drill down all the
03:40:38.140 way to the bottom about like you know there can be dysgenic things that propagate or there can be
03:40:43.620 eugenic things that propagate right so we need to how does that manifest on an individual case-by-case
03:40:49.880 level as like a politic and also a practice that you can lead every single day yourself
03:40:55.700 and so i think that's how people need to think about this like you are an agent of change
03:41:00.800 This starts with you. If you want to talk about surviving the bottleneck, well, that starts today. It's not going to happen for you. The collapse and then rebirth isn't going to happen without your directing it or your direct involvement in it.
03:41:15.300 And that's why when I hear you talk about the old glory cup conference, I think that's the wave that more and more people are riding right now. Whereas historically they were more trying to, I found more people were trying to make predictions in the past. I have no interest in predictions. I very rarely seen predictions be right.
03:41:34.600 geopolitically they tend to like from our space especially they tend to be wrong so why do we do
03:41:40.340 them like but that was in the past we're trying to talk about big metapolitical issues and call 0.62
03:41:45.140 shots and predict where things are going to go none of that actually fucking matters you know
03:41:50.160 i mean because if you can predict where things are going to happen you should be making money 0.57
03:41:54.660 off of it and if you're not that means you don't have faith in your predictions and then why are 0.56
03:41:58.820 you fucking doing them none of this is manifesting as anything practical and that's where i think 0.90
03:42:04.380 some people are at right now which is like forget all these big fucking narratives what are we doing 0.99
03:42:09.220 right now to actualize the world we want would that be accurate i don't think you're completely 0.52
03:42:15.700 right it's like listen the world that like society that we want is not going to come about
03:42:21.040 out of like some like um michael idea of like taking advantage of the collapse it's not how
03:42:27.580 this is going to work even if like that scenario did happen and things collapsed um you and your
03:42:33.160 like desperate group of people are not organized enough not strong enough and don't have the
03:42:37.960 resources to even take advantage of the collapse so it probably would be some lesser group of
03:42:43.000 progressivism that would take over that's more organized more financially backed more networked
03:42:48.020 essentially who like essentially wants it more than you do and believes they have the right
03:42:53.260 to take over essentially that's why this like fanciful right-wing idea of the collapse is a
03:43:00.120 major cope none of these people are ready to take over even if the collapse happened tomorrow
03:43:05.340 you wouldn't be ready to take over you wouldn't have the resources the connections the network
03:43:09.660 so you could take over you'd be a desperate group of tribesmen raiding a walmart to steal food to
03:43:15.300 survive basically is what most of these people would be and probably wouldn't make it much past
03:43:20.900 a week if i had to guess judging by their physical uh acumens yeah and you know for guys especially
03:43:29.560 on our side like we're always trying to find friends we're always trying to find international
03:43:33.360 allies in my opinion who don't that that's not a two-way street usually so some people are hoping
03:43:39.260 that you know russia or the brics nations will defeat america and usher in a new you know new
03:43:47.120 glory days of multi-polar peace and whatever and they'll be based they won't be degenerate but you
03:43:53.740 know if you look into like bricks by which i mean brazil russia india china south africa 0.63
03:44:00.540 africa but like if you look at each of these on a case-by-case basis the china is wildly 0.77
03:44:07.600 degenerate like if you actually like i my co-host who spent some time in china is like you have no 0.99
03:44:12.800 idea what pieces of shit they are like if you think la is bad on like how they view human life 0.97
03:44:20.180 and how they do like drugs and drinking and degeneracy like even in japan something like 0.99
03:44:26.840 like 60 of people have had an affair like crazy weird stuff like there's no like based trad
03:44:34.960 nation out there period they hate america for geopolitical reasons and this is sort of a power 0.99
03:44:42.300 politics you know situation that we're dealing with but like russia is pretty fucking degenerate 0.97
03:44:47.940 if you actually think about it like they're not they're based in so far as they they say sometimes 0.97
03:44:54.500 they hate gays but do they really you know what i mean like their views of these things don't
03:45:01.000 might not even line up with ours you know we here's here's a thought i had on this like 0.77
03:45:07.560 hyper criticality of your own people and culture that is like dominant on the american right and
03:45:13.100 like every right it seems in europe right it's like they see the problems of the current regime
03:45:17.820 they see the problems of the west they say it's degenerate they see it's declining they see all
03:45:22.020 these problems so they become very hypercritical however the problem is they don't put a boundary
03:45:27.360 on the hypercriticality at the source of the problem they they they come to the conclusion 0.61
03:45:33.280 the third worldists do that like white people and similar to the left actually even though they 0.98
03:45:38.560 word it differently internally is that white people are inherently degenerate inherently evil 0.93
03:45:43.300 this will never inevitably happen and the only way to get the space traditional futurism 0.95
03:45:47.980 is if we become like based like um based black africa like wakanda idea or based like slavic
03:45:55.640 russia that's the only alternative right because you're so hypercritical of your own people and
03:46:00.340 your own um ethnos that at a certain point you don't even you you like look to these outside
03:46:06.080 forces to fill your fantasies what you wish your people were right that's where a lot of this comes
03:46:12.260 from this like uncriticalized hypercriticality yeah and also and you mentioned this before about
03:46:19.080 uh you know people who kind of view islam favorably you know a lot of like the white
03:46:24.240 sharia types of guys will look at his i'm like look hey they subjugate women they don't have a
03:46:29.100 feminist problem like buddy we used to subjugate our women too we were pretty good at we just did 0.97
03:46:35.380 it our way we can find a new way to do it without slapping them in burqas because by the way i don't 1.00
03:46:40.620 if you've noticed most women in burkas kind of let themselves go that's not what you want like 1.00
03:46:45.840 it seems like 90 of them turn into like fat hags why because they're wearing a burka what are you 1.00
03:46:51.880 going to do and they haven't figured out a way to stop that you know so that's a that's a trade-off 1.00
03:46:57.220 i don't think we're prepared for because we still like ladies who are easy on the eyes all right so
03:47:03.280 we can figure out a way to get women back in the pocket without having to like switch religion 1.00
03:47:10.580 or say that you know they're they're right about you know they don't have any strategy that we can 0.99
03:47:16.620 really borrow and apply here well though it's looking to the foreigner like here's the thing
03:47:23.740 like a lot of these criticisms like they do the same thing the progressives do actually
03:47:28.220 they look to the foreigner as like the the like a noble savage right who's uncompromised by
03:47:35.680 immaturity wealth and power essentially and is all good right all knowing right this is where 0.92
03:47:40.780 the idea of like enlightened india comes from right is the this like idea and essentially the
03:47:47.200 third world is some like um some of the vitalists believe this too except they word it differently
03:47:53.160 and have a different internal structural monologue for why their version of it is actually good
03:47:58.800 essentially and they're both wrong here they're both an outside force which is destroying the
03:48:04.280 western civilization they want to save yeah um and also a lot of the vitalists they're more
03:48:11.160 into like i've seen a lot of you know sub stacks and posts come out of them like you guys are being 0.96
03:48:17.180 too mean to sluts you should be nicer to sluts i'm like no we should be mean to sluts because 0.98
03:48:24.380 we should desire women don't want to be that you have to you have to create some kind of social 0.99
03:48:29.240 pressure for that not to be desirable but uh there's a lot of people on our side who are trying
03:48:35.780 to take the wind out of the sails on a few of our wins we've actually done pretty good at you know
03:48:42.140 shooting arrows in the knees of feminism you're too mean we should read camille paglia again no 0.99
03:48:49.340 fuck off we're doing a pretty good job of showing that this is a dumb thing for women to believe 1.00
03:48:55.220 and they're they're kind of gravitating away from that but you have to keep the pressure up 1.00
03:48:58.860 keep making fun of sluts keep making fun of e-girls there's literally no reason to listen to an e-girl 0.98
03:49:07.120 and and remind them of that there's no idea that they've ever come up with that there's some guy 1.00
03:49:11.680 that hasn't done it better and if you if you if you subscribe to a woman's sub stack i'm gonna 1.00
03:49:17.780 tell you right now i'm gonna find you and i'm gonna i'm gonna collect your fucking skin 0.99
03:49:22.640 too many men are subscribing to women and i don't like it and i'm bringing out the fucking gallows 1.00
03:49:29.720 because i'm cleaning house and i'm not even calling it simper i don't even want to if you 0.99
03:49:34.920 listen to a woman's voice that's not your wife hey buddy you're uh go lay on the train tracks
03:49:42.240 why don't you well i think you're definitely right about that it's this like single motherhood
03:49:48.740 basically the women's mindset and prerogative that has been installed into men because they've
03:49:53.960 been raised by their single mommies um all their lives and dad was a loser who was uh divorced and
03:50:00.080 like forced out of the house right and basically all they were raised with was the female imperative
03:50:06.000 the female idea of the world right and that's what they're going off of and obviously they 0.96
03:50:11.460 cope with these terms and ideas to cloud that or obscure what they actually are 1.00
03:50:15.720 at the end of the day, it's a female mindset. It's how they're pursuing these things. That's 1.00
03:50:20.720 what makes them weak and gay at the end of the day. 1.00
03:50:25.540 No, I agree completely. I'm wondering if there's anything we didn't get to, because we need 1.00
03:50:29.920 to, I need to get going shortly. I think we actually covered everything I wanted to. I was
03:50:36.640 wondering if before we left, if there's anything that you had on your mind, having left the Old
03:50:43.260 glory club conference anything else that kind of pikes your interest i think one of the things
03:50:48.660 that piped my interest was like how we can get more of this because this is what we need in
03:50:54.620 actuality to be successful groups of hyper organized people who are willing to do the hard
03:51:00.200 things irl to build the things to build the institutions that are going to take time but
03:51:06.240 are going to be necessary if we're going to take care take advantage of the coming collapse uh shall
03:51:10.840 we say of uh the liberal world order uh when and if that does indeed happen like this like
03:51:18.960 organization and spirit um that we need to cultivate more like action essentially is what
03:51:25.520 i mean but like action is directed in a positive direction just action for the sake of action is
03:51:32.320 not what we need that's actually an inherent negative yeah and i think um one thing i've
03:51:39.860 always been fascinated by especially on the furthest reaches of the far right the stuff that
03:51:44.920 no one wants to associate with anymore you know those guys have always been pretty clear on what
03:51:50.860 their goals are and it seemed that as we drift towards the center of the more reasonable distant
03:51:57.940 right their goals become muddied and they talk about you know vagaries and stuff but you know
03:52:04.160 So just I'm going to say an unoptical thing, you know, the whole like 14 words that you would get from the National Socialist. 0.99
03:52:11.800 Like, well, that's a fucking goal. 1.00
03:52:13.740 You want a future for white children. 1.00
03:52:16.120 That's you want white children to be safe. 0.92
03:52:17.800 That's what you want. 0.92
03:52:18.520 OK, then there's like three things you can do about that.
03:52:21.460 But like when people talk about, you know, what we need to do is replace liberalism with a new a new type of religion.
03:52:28.740 When I ever hear someone say we need a new religion, I tune out. 0.95
03:52:32.300 when you start they talk about these fucking existential projects that you know we need to 0.97
03:52:37.640 replace the global american empire with this new conglomerate of empires like you you there's 0.99
03:52:43.380 nothing you can do to affect that that's so far beyond you on fucking twitter right now however 0.85
03:52:50.520 if you're talking about people who've actually had measurable goals that you can tell whether 0.81
03:52:56.000 or not they're working within five years it's always been the furthest on the right and i
03:53:00.340 actually like that i'm not trying to say that the people these people whether we're talking about
03:53:04.260 are even that far right they're not iron march guys or adam waffen or anything like that but
03:53:08.900 it's like they're talking about like what do i want what do i actually want and the incel thing
03:53:12.880 i think is a great vector for this because like what do you want i want to be married with children
03:53:16.640 that's it i can tell within a year if i'm closer to that or not right so but if you have more of
03:53:23.440 those and you have a rather than say you know one thing that we always get stuck on on this side
03:53:28.540 is hyphenated identities so you know we make fun of the left for their pronouns well on our side
03:53:36.620 our version of that is the hyphenated identities like i'm a i'm a maoist nationalist race realist 0.75
03:53:42.200 you know i'm a bapist fucking multi-polarityist whatever you know what i mean like there's people
03:53:47.540 who string these together because they're like internet identities right but you can get lost 0.96
03:53:52.800 in that you can get lost looking for an army to join or looking for the right formula that's going
03:53:58.520 to make the utopia that you don't even really have a real grasp of versus people who actually
03:54:04.840 just want a few practical things and know how to make a strategy to get there i think though that's
03:54:11.080 more what we're talking about right now as opposed to where we might have been five ten years ago
03:54:15.840 you know so don't even worry about trying to attack liberalism like that's not even the war
03:54:21.980 you should be fighting like you can get five guys together and actually you know make moves for your
03:54:28.700 own survival with people with your value set and that will probably cascade more effectively than
03:54:36.020 like trying to create a new movement on social media what do you think about that i completely
03:54:42.520 100 agree again it's about quality over quantity and like if charlottesville didn't teach you this
03:54:48.280 i don't know what will essentially mass movements mass populism is never going to get you the
03:54:53.800 victories you desire against our enemies you're never going to win using their the rules of the
03:54:58.780 system they have in place it's never going to happen however what you can do is if you get
03:55:04.560 groups of highly motivated high iq men who have actionable goals and ways of organizing suddenly
03:55:12.840 these like small victories that chip away become more feasible and those paved the way for more
03:55:18.240 victories and what does winning look like at the end of the day it's providing the scenario for
03:55:23.280 which more victories are possible against the regime and that's the goal of these people that
03:55:28.080 were in this room at the old glory club all weekend was they had that common foundation there
03:55:32.720 even if they were like you said even though they had these uh hyphenated uh identities and uh such
03:55:38.840 things. There is that like basic presupposition that rooted at the
03:55:44.540 bottom that was much needed.
03:55:46.880 Christopher Penninelli You know, it's interesting, I just want to
03:55:48.300 say this before we go, it's that I think our side, we don't give
03:55:51.860 ourselves enough credit insofar as how much we have kind of
03:55:56.660 created a parallel, at least a media ecosystem. Like for me, I
03:56:01.840 get most of my news from my online community, my chat, and
03:56:05.320 some people say that's an echo chamber. Yeah, just string
03:56:08.140 together a few echo chambers and it's better than watching the news that's actually a filtration
03:56:13.200 system um and this was what we discussed on when we were reviewed i believe it was the emancipation
03:56:18.940 of authorship like that's a necessary filtration system to make sure you receive not only the news
03:56:26.120 but also interpretations that contextualize the news through your online social circles and you
03:56:33.240 know i i really do think that that is we like how many people a lot of people don't know this
03:56:38.200 john stewart is back on the daily show did you know that who's watching that no one over here 0.83
03:56:42.340 we are so you go to like an old glory club conference no one's watching them fucking marvel 0.56
03:56:47.140 movies no one's tuned in to mainstream culture and yet they're still getting news and yet they're 0.78
03:56:52.880 still entertained there's not enough hours in the day to consume all of the content that they want
03:56:57.960 to in the form of videos, podcasts, whatever it is. So we've actually done a pretty good job
03:57:03.820 of creating a alternative parallel media ecosystem where we don't even need to fucking give them 0.96
03:57:09.360 our dollar. We're just looking at screenshots of their news articles. So they don't even get 0.90
03:57:14.800 ad revenue based on that. That creates its own problems sometimes. But I think that when people
03:57:20.520 look at that as a problem, I actually think that's a benefit that we're already getting used to
03:57:25.660 checking out of that entire system and that's a necessary step to creating alternatives and anyway
03:57:32.600 that's just a little bit of optimism no i think you're completely right like the first step to
03:57:38.680 realizing you're in a rigged game is to stop playing the game ultimately you have to stop
03:57:44.040 playing the game if you want to like like flip the board over essentially you have to flip over
03:57:47.880 the chessboard entirely at the opponent because clearly you're never going to win using their
03:57:52.740 rules their logic their presupposition their language their ideology at the forefront
03:57:59.140 exactly all right so where can people find you because i know you from uh youtube your youtube
03:58:05.220 channel american elitist but um is there any other place that people can find you that you're
03:58:10.100 trying to direct them to yes if you're interested in following um a based zoomer like me you can
03:58:16.180 find me on twitter i go by the same uh handle american elitist and you can also find my youtube

03:58:36.100 let's go here this is american elitist right here boom boom boom uh follows me there don't look at
03:58:44.740 digital archipelago over there there don't you don't gotta pay attention to any other 0.98
03:58:48.420 fucking streams that are going on right now look at this the only stream you should be watching 0.83
03:58:51.800 right now all right so um this has been a fantastic talk i loved once again getting in touch with you 0.98
