The white knight is the beta male who seeks to protect women from the dangers of the world. He seeks to guide them in the right path and guide them toward virtue. But is he a Christian knight or a pagan hedonist who pursues purely their own pleasure? And what is the difference between the two?

00:00:00.000 The White Knight 0.96
00:00:11.000 Such a vile little creature 0.99
00:00:13.300 Contemptible in the eyes of women and men alike 0.87
00:00:17.440 The White Knight goes out looking for a lady fair to defend 1.00
00:00:22.040 He feeds into her solipsism
00:00:24.700 Feeding her delusions about how beautiful she is
00:00:27.460 And praising her every decision
00:00:29.060 When she makes a wreck of her own life
00:00:31.660 When she pursues a man who's out of her league
00:00:33.900 And then blames it on that man being cruel to her
00:00:36.840 He turns against his fellow man
00:00:38.920 With no thoughts of justice, no thoughts of truth
00:00:41.780 And no thoughts to the fact that he's feeding into her own delusion
00:00:45.740 Leading to her own ruin 0.99
00:00:46.900 The White Knight is the beta male
00:00:50.000 He begs women for their approval 1.00
00:00:52.900 And seeks to defend their honor
00:00:55.380 Like most forms of degeneracy
00:00:59.220 The internet makes the White Knighting even worse 0.98
00:01:02.380 These pathetic little men get together in their little echo chambers 1.00
00:01:07.360 And where once social disapproval would have kept their cowardly mouths shut 1.00
00:01:11.900 Now they feed off one another 0.74
00:01:13.980 Attacking their bettors and pretending that they are the good guys
00:01:18.340 But just because the internet makes it worse
00:01:22.420 Doesn't mean this is a new problem 0.95
00:01:24.140 Quite frankly, the vile, cowardly behavior of the White Knight 0.82
00:01:29.380 Is a problem as old as our race 0.94
00:01:33.520 Adam and Eve
00:01:36.800 Adam, the perpetual beta male
00:01:40.000 Adam, the White Knight
00:01:42.640 When Eve sinned
00:01:45.020 When Eve ate the apple
00:01:46.960 She allowed herself to be misguided
00:01:50.440 She allowed herself to be tricked by the serpent
00:01:53.340 And that is, that's woman's sin 1.00
00:01:54.840 Always allowing herself to be tricked into doing what she wants to do anyway
00:02:00.040 Adam, however, wasn't deceived
00:02:03.040 Adam wasn't tricked
00:02:04.180 He knew that they weren't supposed to eat the apple
00:02:06.900 And yet he did it anyway
00:02:09.080 Why?
00:02:10.040 Because this wife that God had given him
00:02:13.520 To cherish and guide and lead
00:02:16.620 He followed her
00:02:19.160 And following her
00:02:21.200 He followed her into sin
00:02:23.200 The White Knight is nothing new
00:02:26.380 To understand the psychology of the White Knight
00:02:29.940 It's once again useful to bring up the trifold nature of truth
00:02:35.320 The absolute objective
00:02:37.200 And the relative level
00:02:39.520 On the absolute level of truth
00:02:42.680 When we look at the question of
00:02:45.260 What guides your life?
00:02:47.740 What are you living for?
00:02:49.000 On the absolute level
00:02:50.080 That's where you find the Christian Knight 0.87
00:02:52.440 And that's where you find the pagan Stoic 0.96
00:02:54.940 The difference between the two
00:02:56.940 Is that the Christian Knight lives with hope 0.94
00:02:58.960 Lives with faith
00:03:00.720 Has something bigger that he's fighting for
00:03:03.300 He's fighting for the kingdom of heaven
00:03:04.800 The Stoic is only fighting for the certitude of the grave
00:03:09.900 But both men are placing something higher than themselves
00:03:13.880 Something bigger
00:03:15.280 A higher principle to seek after
00:03:18.340 The Stoic might die and rot in the earth
00:03:21.800 But he's going to live a life that's worth living
00:03:24.120 Both of them are pursuing the absolute
00:03:27.280 Both of them are beyond self-directed
00:03:30.600 They're pursuing something bigger than themselves
00:03:34.120 That is their direction
00:03:35.500 That is their guidance in life
00:03:37.160 Down at the objective level
00:03:40.900 You get the pagan hedonist 1.00
00:03:43.340 The person that pursues purely their own pleasure
00:03:47.840 If you've been following the recent divide
00:03:51.100 Between the dark enlightenment reactive sphere
00:03:54.560 And the game bloggers
00:03:56.280 This is where the divide lies
00:03:58.160 Is the reactionaries want to be at the absolute truth level
00:04:03.720 Living for something bigger than oneself
00:04:05.680 While the game bloggers are living on the hedonist level
00:04:10.880 Living for themselves
00:04:12.440 Now there's two things to note about these men
00:04:15.620 First of all, I wouldn't be so quick to rush to conclusions
00:04:19.680 That they're at the objective level
00:04:21.440 That they're true pagan hedonists 0.98
00:04:23.420 Quite frankly, you can't be a Christian knight 1.00
00:04:27.740 If there's no army to fight in
00:04:29.940 And given how badly the church has mangled our culture
00:04:35.100 How thoroughly the church has sold out
00:04:38.620 And given in to the hedonism of society
00:04:41.700 Desperately begging people to come to church
00:04:44.540 And saying whatever they want to hear
00:04:46.180 Whatever the women in the congregation want to believe
00:04:48.760 Calling these supposed hedonists failures
00:04:52.560 I don't think that's quite fair
00:04:54.800 A lot of them, I think, are closet virtuous people
00:04:59.520 And second of all, even if they are a true pagan hedonist 0.73
00:05:03.140 A hedonist, a true hedonist
00:05:06.480 Does have virtue
00:05:07.920 A hedonist lives for themselves
00:05:10.680 They're not living for the absolute
00:05:12.620 They're not living for principles
00:05:14.220 And they're not living for God
00:05:15.380 But they are living for themselves
00:05:17.700 And that takes virtue
00:05:18.680 That takes courage
00:05:20.720 So even if they aren't living for the absolute
00:05:24.980 They're a heck of a lot closer to it
00:05:28.180 Than the bulk of people in society
00:05:30.540 And see, this is where we get down to the relative truth
00:05:35.520 This is where we find the white knight
00:05:38.640 The white knight doesn't have the understanding
00:05:42.600 Of principles to live for
00:05:44.600 He doesn't have
00:05:46.820 He doesn't have the courage
00:05:48.780 To live for himself
00:05:50.740 Instead, the white knight
00:05:53.040 Is the male that seeks somebody else to lead him
00:05:57.460 And so in this present feminist society 0.98
00:05:59.900 He seeks out a woman to lead him 1.00
00:06:02.580 He allows women to tell him what male virtue is 0.98
00:06:06.280 As if they could tell him anything about it
00:06:09.180 And they hold him in contempt for it
00:06:11.480 Because instinctively women recognize male virtue 1.00
00:06:15.060 No, he's too cowardly 0.99
00:06:18.520 To even live life on his own terms 0.99
00:06:20.440 To even be something as difficult
00:06:23.700 As a man that pursues game
00:06:26.620 That pursues sex 0.98
00:06:27.780 He's not even courageous enough to be a hedonist 1.00
00:06:31.740 No, he is a slave
00:06:33.840 Somebody else dictates his morality for him
00:06:37.120 And he is happy
00:06:38.700 Handing his soul over to that other person
00:06:41.660 When you look at the white knight 1.00
00:06:46.280 You're looking at the sucker 1.00
00:06:49.860 That supports the Nazi party 1.00
00:06:52.040 The blind, obedient follower to communism 1.00
00:06:56.220 And the idiot voter 1.00
00:06:58.760 That sells out his decision-making 1.00
00:07:01.560 To whatever political party he wears on his sleeve
00:07:05.240 The white knight 1.00
00:07:07.500 That most cowardly of man 1.00
00:07:10.160 A blemish upon the countenance of the Lord 0.98
00:07:15.740 Irene out, folks
00:07:18.600 That looks good for the queen
00:07:39.140 We'll help with the girl
