00:01:46.380I'm still going to stream tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
00:01:49.060But there was a few things that have happened in the last few days.
00:01:53.460And I was like, I wanted to kind of get on top of them.
00:01:56.000because tomorrow I would like to go through some of the remaining Dominion Society speeches
00:02:02.460and some of the more recent news and stuff like that so today though I thought we would talk
00:02:08.620about two things and I'm going to focus on one thing more so I mean it's the it's the Lindsay
00:02:15.840Clancy case but it's not just about that it's more about this culture of victimhood that we've
00:02:21.920kind of adopted now to where, you know, nobody takes responsibility. And I kind of did a bit of
00:02:26.700a I was going to write a paper on it or a sub stack, and I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
00:02:31.740So I did I had done a, you know, just a bit of research on, you know, what is the like, what is
00:02:36.760this? Why has this happened? You know, what is this phenomena, whatever you want to call it.
00:02:42.040So I'm going to give a little bit of a monologue at the beginning in a few minutes before we get
00:02:46.400into some of the content that I have. And then there was something big. Hey, Waythorne, there
00:02:53.580was something that happened in the UK, Dover, it's called, it's a small town that some patriots came0.95
00:03:00.320out there and on mass all wearing black block, which was fucking based and awesome to protest0.97
00:03:07.740the invasion of their country as well. So we're going to go over those two things today. And it0.98
00:03:13.540may not be as long of a stream as normal but we'll see you know me I get to talking and then
00:03:17.660that's it it's all over we're here forever okay so I'm just wanted to go over like I said about
00:03:24.800the whole this whole victim narrative thing because it's been bothering me for a while
00:03:29.040just I mean obviously since this whole Lindsay Clancy thing came up but I mean it's like an
00:03:34.940everyday life it's not just in that particular case although that definitely highlights it
00:03:40.140but it's an everyday life where we have this society now where people are will not take
00:03:46.560responsibility that like they always outsource or externalize the responsibility for everything
00:03:53.640that happens to them to an you know an outside force or whatever and I think this is part of
00:03:58.340the kind of participation metal generation I like to call it which is you know kids that would be
00:04:03.760my like that would be my kids age so the kids of gen x's maybe and some millennials the kids of
00:04:09.720these generations unfortunately a lot of us tended to raise them with that whole you know
00:04:16.060liberal kind of everybody's equal ideology that they fucking drilled into our heads when we were0.63
00:04:23.320in school and the psycho babble and all that kind of stuff so now we have this generation of kids who0.90
00:04:28.860truly I mean yes some of them might be you know sociopathic and stuff like that but I think a lot
00:04:34.780of times they just have never had to take responsibility in their life for anything so
00:04:39.260they just you know don't even know what that would look like and now we're seeing some of
00:04:44.700these people in this generation you know get to be adults and they're doing horrendous horrible
00:04:52.220things like killing their children and then trying to get out of it by you know pathologizing
00:05:02.100whatever their feelings were which you know i don't i'm not her doctor i i don't know like i
00:05:08.980said you know i don't doubt that maybe she had a little bit of depression because like i said
00:05:13.200modern women these days a lot of them i think suffer from depression because of the way society1.00
00:05:17.560has been structured which by the way feminists voted for and worked really hard to get into0.99
00:05:23.800get that implemented but i digress um they like i said so i don't doubt that she was depressed but
00:05:32.040I, to me, it doesn't matter, right? You still did it. So you still take the responsibility for it.
00:05:38.440And that's with everything, right? It's the same thing with the migrant that raped somebody. And0.97
00:05:42.360oh, it's okay, because we rape people in my culture. Well, we don't do it here, bucko. Okay.1.00
00:05:47.960And, you know, it's not an excuse. So whatever, right? This is my whole theory on the whole thing.
00:05:55.240But I mean, basically, we used to, I guess, we went from a place of where we used to argue,
00:06:01.140right about what happened so we would argue with each other about what at what event actually
00:06:06.700occurred but now we actually argue about who's allowed to speak about the event right so this
00:06:11.300is kind of like kind of the what they're doing to speech as well like it's all all this stuff
00:06:17.920tied in together like people don't want to take responsibility they're changing the language and
00:06:23.320the books and the speech and the words and stuff like that to mean different things which gives a
00:06:28.120lot of people an easier way of claiming a victim narrative I guess you could say
00:06:32.800for people a lot of these people the victim narrative or the idea that they're suffering
00:06:39.560it's not just a fact it's a status to them and I do make that joke you guys have probably heard
00:06:46.480me make that joke many times about they collect illnesses or diagnoses like Pokemon cards and
00:06:52.580it's you know as much as that's kind of a little bit of a tongue-in-cheek joke it's true
00:06:57.020like I've never seen a generation that is so proud to admit they have all these things wrong
00:07:03.420with them on their social media pages and stuff like that like it's to me it's wild this is stuff
00:07:07.820that we would have I would still probably take to my grave the second view uh in this narrative is
00:07:16.400that the oppressor versus the oppressed framework so we're going to go over three different aspects
00:07:21.560of this whole victim narrative, I guess you could say. And the three ideas of it is that, yeah,
00:07:27.940there's the victim narrative, the oppressor versus the oppressed, and then there is the
00:07:34.540postmodernism, right, which is all these things kind of encompass where we're at right now as far
00:07:40.340as not taking responsibility for things that we've done. The victim narrative usually starts
00:07:48.580with something that is true. So people do get hurt, right? Crime is real. War is real. Betrayal
00:07:55.260is real. A person who has been assaulted, robbed, or abandoned is not playing a game. I mean,
00:08:02.740unless they're lying about it, but generally, no, they're not playing a game. They are a victim
00:08:07.520of a specific act. That narrative begins when that fact stops being a description and becomes
00:08:15.500an identity. Sociologists Bradley Campbell and Jason Manning mapped this as a change in moral
00:08:22.560culture. Older honor cultures treated unavenged victimhood as shame. You handled the slight
00:08:30.120yourself. A lot of us are going to remember this from when we were kids. Dignity culture,
00:08:35.120the one that built a lot of the modern West, like look, all the great things we have,
00:08:40.160that's because of dignity. A large part of it is because of the dignity that we had.
00:08:45.500And this said people had inherent worth. Minor insults you absorbed, serious harms you took to court, not to a mob, and the whole adage, sticks and stones may break my bones, really did apply, right? And for the most part, it applied.
00:09:04.500But this victimhood culture is different. Sensitivity to a slight goes up. The preferred
00:09:12.120move is not self-command and not a duel. Can you imagine if we still had duels? That would be kind
00:09:18.260of cool. It is an appeal to an audience, administrators, journalists, followers, and
00:09:24.940state. Being recognized as harmed becomes a form of prestige. It puts you in a higher ground than
00:09:32.820just the average person. Hi, Chad. Good afternoon. I'm sorry, this is a surprise, a surprise stream.
00:09:40.660So I'm not disappointed if people can't make it because like I said, I just decided at the last
00:09:45.940minute because I really didn't have a whole lot to do today. And I don't tomorrow, which is nice
00:09:50.560for once. Psychologists have a related pattern they call a tendency for interpersonal victimhood,
00:09:59.280a standing sense that the self is owed recognition for injustice a feeling of moral high ground
00:10:06.120rumination and a thinner capacity to see other people's pain as equal to your own
00:10:11.620this is very common among lefties obviously right i haven't really seen this kind of behavior
00:10:18.280very often it's very minimal among you know right wingers or a nationalist or whatever
00:10:23.980so I don't know like I said if this is just people who have it's like the chicken and the egg
00:10:29.580is it you're more likely to have this attitude if you're a lefty or if you have this left
00:10:34.300attitude you're more likely to be a lefty who knows I think they go hand in hand
00:10:37.940that is not every sir that is not every survivor many survivors refuse the word
00:10:47.600victim for exactly this reason they will not let the worst day become the whole map
00:10:53.420yeah that's nice chad that's awesome thank you
00:10:57.360the political version is larger so now we're going to talk about the political
00:11:02.340definition or the political version of victimhood once victim status is moral capital groups compete
00:11:09.840for it the story is no longer this person was wronged the story is this category is wronged
00:11:16.540and therefore this category is owed belief exemption and repair we've seen this in canada
00:11:22.740in context of the Indigenous people, right, the Chugs, because they, for a long time,
00:11:30.000they were the victims, right? And I think now, you know, their victimhood is getting kind of
00:11:34.480brushed under the carpet for what will now soon be probably the Indian victimhood,0.84
00:11:39.780because they're being the most targeted, according to them.0.98
00:11:46.200The perfect victim is innocent, voiceless, and unimpeachable. Anyone who complicates that picture
00:11:51.780agency, crime rates, culture, trade-offs sounds like a blasphemer. This is the first piece. So
00:11:59.060suffering becomes a rank. And now we're going to get to the oppressor and the oppressed portion of
00:12:05.780this whole monologue I'm going to give you in the victimhood, you know, ideology. The second piece
00:12:13.720tells you who gets to hold that rank. So who gets to be the victim? The oppressor-oppressed
00:12:21.560distinction is older than social media or X. Hegel used it, the Hegelian dialect, or I think
00:12:29.060it's dialectal. I don't know, dialect, something like that. Marx and Engels made it the plot
00:12:34.200of history in a word, oppressor and oppressed. Lenin applied it to nations. This is how you
00:12:41.420get communism paulo ferrer's pedagogy of the oppressed carried it into classrooms oppression
00:12:48.980is already violence the oppressed must wake up to that fact force from below is treated as answer
00:12:55.440not origin later that class war was rewritten as identity wars which we now suffer from here
00:13:03.320race sex sexuality colonial history disability intersectionality stacked the axes so you can be
00:13:11.660the oppressor on one line and be the oppressed on another so you can hold two roles now you can
00:13:18.680be the oppressed or the oppressor depending on the day and what group of people you're around I
00:13:24.720suppose the spreadsheet still has two columns one side is structurally guilty the other is
00:13:31.340structurally owed. Notice what this does to ordinary judgment. Outcomes, income, crime,
00:13:37.820family, school get read first as domination. Culture selection, time preference, family
00:13:43.780structure, and individual choice get demoted. Neutrality looks like complicity. Violence from
00:13:50.920the oppressed can be recorded as resistance. We see that now. They excuse it, right? Because
00:13:57.480the white people the hawaii people have been oppressing them for so long the same act from0.63
00:14:05.140the oppressor is domination history does not cooperate with this cartoon groups that were
00:14:11.100crushed in one century run empires in another so basically what they're saying is that the
00:14:17.060attitude of the left is that you know it's always been that number one people are blank slates and
00:14:22.020number two is equality can be guaranteed right equality well of outcome but just equality in
00:14:28.360general of all these things of nations can be guaranteed right and it can never be guaranteed0.98
00:14:34.080so it's just it's stupid ideology and this is why it hasn't worked and why communism hasn't worked0.95
00:14:40.220especially in the west individuals contain both cruelty and decency east asian outcomes in the0.99
00:14:48.240west immigrant selection efforts and class splits inside racial groups sit awkwardly on a fixed map
00:14:54.440of saints and sinners they're using some pretty fancy words in this little article here but
00:14:58.740but the map is useful it tells you which whose pain counts as evidence and whose pain counts
00:15:04.000as fragility or backlash it turns the victim narrative from a personal story into a civilizational
00:15:09.780scoreboard so i think we this could be explained also in the context of you know black people
00:15:16.460versus Chinese people, I guess, in the complaining as a race of being oppressed. I don't know what
00:15:23.080it's like in other countries, but I know in Canada, the Chinese haven't really made much noise
00:15:29.040about being oppressed or, you know, they haven't really demanded reparations. They don't use it as
00:15:35.040an excuse for giving, you know, gimmies and all this stuff. They don't, right? Not, definitely
00:15:40.800not to the same degree as all the other ones. So I think that's what it's trying to say here is
00:15:46.260that like you know you'll have some groups that will take this as a success story like whatever
00:15:51.620oppression they may have gone through or suffering they may have gone through coming over to you
00:15:56.100know another country and starting over coming over to Canada and all this stuff and then some will
00:16:00.800claim it was you know colonization and they're the victim of something that happened centuries ago
00:16:06.840that you know their ancestors have not had or anybody they don't even know any ancestors who
00:16:12.320went through it, but they still want some kind of reparation. And that's the difference in races,
00:16:17.420right? And now we're going to get to the postmodernism and the collapse of the court
00:16:25.480of appeal. Now, the third piece of this is this postmodernism. So the postmodernism went after
00:16:33.760the court, you would have appealed to. So, you know, we all know that all the institutions have
00:16:40.140been captured, including the court system. Jean-Francois Lyotard, probably didn't pronounce
00:16:48.660that right, defined the postmodern, simplifying to the extreme as incredible, I can't pronounce
00:16:57.120it, whatever, toward metanarratives. Shock is the word. The word isn't shock, but it's
00:17:07.580another word for shock and for some reason i'm tongue-tied and i can't say it towards meta
00:17:11.660narratives the enlightenment story that reason emancipates the marxist story that history
00:17:16.420emancipates the christian story that salvation orders the world the story that science and
00:17:21.300progress have a direction after the slaughters of the 20th century those big stories lost
00:17:26.460automatic authority but what remains as local language games knowledge is situated categories
00:26:24.620Power is real and not the only variable.
00:26:28.120Cultures differ and some patterns still wreck lives.
00:26:30.480truth is a meta is not a meta narrative you vote on it is what remains after the story is stress
00:26:35.760tested this person really went out of their way to use a lot of different words but anyways
00:26:41.200post-modernism takes away the independent court that could overrule both so that was like i said
00:26:47.480i just wanted to talk about that because it's going to lead us into our um lindsey clancy stuff
00:26:56.100So we talked about it briefly before, and I don't want to spend a lot of time going over it because I don't really like giving people like that the attention.
00:27:09.140But her court case just, well, the trial just ended in a mistrial, right?
00:27:15.520The jury had taken quite a while to even get to the point where a mistrial was called.
00:27:21.340My understanding is there was three men and nine women on the jury.
00:27:24.420And there was one man who held out. He would not concede to the remaining 11 who believed that she was not guilty by reason of insanity or guilty of second degree murder or whatever.
00:27:37.980There is, like I mentioned the last time I talked about this, there is no doubt that she killed these kids.
00:27:46.340She admitted it. I mean, the evidence was there. Like, there's no doubt, right? There's absolutely no doubt.
00:27:52.300And that's not they're not even arguing that in court.
00:27:54.300They're arguing on whether this supposed postpartum psychosis that she claimed she was suffering from.
00:28:02.820Very high functioning for somebody who has psychosis, by the way, I'll just let you know that this somehow caused her to murder her three little babies.
00:28:13.500So the jury, again, nine men or sorry, nine women and three men were basically deadlocked for a while.
00:28:20.580And the judge had given, you know, multiple different times had given them instruction that they have to follow the law and come to a decision, blah, blah, blah.
00:28:28.580And then yesterday, they just decided that it wasn't going to happen.
00:28:32.180The guy and I'm sure I know how these things go, like the jury things, especially you're coming up into a long weekend.
