We hope you're enjoying your Air Canada flight.
00:00:10.720
Fast-free Wi-Fi means I can make dinner reservations before we land.

Wi-Fi available to Airplane members on Equipped Flight.
00:00:33.580
I've got a great stream with one of your favorite guests,
00:00:39.880
So, as I'm sure many of you are very well aware,
00:00:43.720
there have been a number of violent incidents involving people
00:00:50.960
And the response by our government, by our media,
00:01:00.740
Looking at what's happening and trying to understand why it seems like
00:01:05.540
not only there's no condemnation of the violence,
00:01:08.820
but there seems to be a direct glorification and reward for the groups involved.
00:01:15.560
And so, I wanted to talk about that a little bit.
00:01:18.120
And the Prudentialist wrote a great piece here recently that appeared on the Old Glory Club
00:01:29.860
But he put it in a really good historical context.
00:01:32.360
And so, I thought it would be really important to have him on
00:01:34.300
so we can kind of look deeper into what's going on,
00:01:38.180
and kind of how to place them and understand them in American history.
00:01:49.060
People should go check out the Old Glory Club in general over at the Substack
00:01:53.040
and specifically the Prudentialist piece by this name.
00:01:57.300
We're going to get into the events that kind of spurred this piece
00:02:03.980
because, believe it or not, even more has happened since the piece came out.
00:02:07.620
But before we do all that, let's hear from today's sponsor.
00:02:10.780
All right, guys, so there's a new movie coming out
00:02:13.140
that I think you're going to really want to see.
00:02:15.220
I was lucky enough to see a special sneak preview.
00:02:19.860
The best thing is that it's based on a book by The Blaze's very own Steve Dace.
00:02:26.580
He was kind enough to have me come to an advanced screening.
00:02:30.100
I'm sure you've seen the posters or maybe even the trailer,
00:02:34.040
It's kind of in between a horror movie and a psychological thriller.
00:02:40.200
You know the book The Screwtape Letters, of course.
00:02:47.960
and he has to meet with a convicted killer who's about to be executed.
00:02:51.900
The killer claims that he's a demon named Nefarious.
00:02:55.260
And, of course, the psychologist, he's an atheist.
00:02:57.200
He doesn't believe any of the supernatural stuff.
00:02:59.560
But he's got to decide, you know, is this guy insane?
00:03:06.980
Obviously, I'm not going to give anything away,
00:03:09.360
but let's just say that the psychiatrist is in way over his head.
00:03:13.180
It's a supernatural thriller that's perfect for your friends who love scary movies,
00:03:19.480
It's the kind of movie that you'll be thinking about long after you get out of the theater.
00:03:23.880
Nefarious opens nationwide the weekend of April 14th.
00:03:27.720
So make sure to mark the date and get your tickets now at whoisnefarious.com.
00:03:37.520
Now, I know a lot of people probably looked at the events of Nashville,
00:03:49.260
of course, we'd like there to be a moment of kind of just human mourning,
00:03:59.920
to look at the difficult situation and just tragedy that has occurred for the families,
00:04:08.960
But unfortunately, we don't live in that world,
00:04:11.800
and our media immediately launched into a propaganda campaign,
00:04:22.540
but instead they seemed to be just completely obsessed
00:04:26.360
with the appropriate pronouns with which to address a mass murderer.
00:04:32.700
I know we're both in kind of the business of being cynical
00:04:34.960
about our kind of our current media landscape and culture in general,
00:04:38.860
but were you shocked to see the way that the media immediately responded to this?
00:04:43.680
I think it's been three or four times I've been on Oren,
00:04:46.220
and I think every time I've said this phrase that I'm not surprised.
00:04:49.780
I think that is the fact that we are sort of in the business of cynicism
00:04:56.380
but when you look at sort of how the left is operating,
00:05:01.300
I mean, we've spent years now talking about wokeism
00:05:07.180
and the idea of social justice and social progress,
00:05:10.820
and that they're all sort of unified under this system
00:05:14.700
of what I could only describe the sort of progressive fusionism
00:05:18.900
where every sort of disparate progressive issue,
00:05:21.400
whether that be environmentalism, animal rights, race relations, environmentalism,
00:05:27.160
they all kind of come together to understand their place
00:05:30.420
in this progressive hierarchy to sort of change society
00:05:33.580
for what they seem to be this sort of utopian, killiastic vision.
00:05:37.940
And so for the media to make a martyr out of this killer
00:05:42.380
is not surprising considering that they've done it many times before in the past,
00:05:47.440
whether that's over the issues of the Black Lives Matter riots in 2020
00:05:51.320
or more earlier than that when it came to the issues
00:05:55.660
that happened under Barack Obama's administration
00:05:59.100
So I'm not surprised that they had made the pronouns the central issue
00:06:02.920
because this has been the large push out of this administration.
00:06:06.740
I mean, just a few months ago, we had, you know,
00:06:09.180
President Biden sitting there with Dylan Mulvaney,
00:06:13.980
and sort of that Southern exasperated way of, you know,
00:06:17.560
acknowledging that that person was entering their 264th day of girlhood or whatever.
00:06:26.880
were the six people that were killed in that school,
00:06:33.140
So to see the media, you know, double down on this is heartbreaking
00:06:42.560
We try and give them their proper due respects and attention to grieve.
00:06:45.540
But in this instance, no, they went full steam ahead
00:06:50.520
Our previously scheduled event called the Transgender Day of Vengeance
00:06:54.140
went forward that weekend, despite the events that had happened.
00:06:58.120
So it has really been a mask off moment for this
00:07:03.700
and that it should be a wake up call to you and your audience
00:07:09.460
and that this is state sanctioned violence against ordinary people.
00:07:17.140
I think it's very difficult for people to understand or grasp that.
00:07:20.860
But there's really no other way to understand what's happening here.
00:07:26.000
I think a lot of people are getting closer to understanding
00:07:30.620
with something like Black Lives Matter or Antifa.
00:07:33.160
When they're allowed to riot for, you know, weeks or months on end,
00:07:37.960
they can see maybe the loose connection for them with, you know, the state sanction.
00:07:50.900
You know, I think that's still hard for some people,
00:07:53.120
but more people are starting to make that connection.
00:07:56.780
But a school shooting is a whole other matter, I think, for some people,
00:08:01.380
because the target is, of course, the most innocent among us.
00:08:05.820
There's no, it's not the looting of a target, which shouldn't be okay either.
00:08:10.200
But, you know, it's sometimes hard to feel sympathy
00:08:12.880
as someone carries a big screen television out of Megacorp,
00:08:20.820
and push, you know, transgender bathrooms on your kids or whatever anyway.
00:08:26.900
It's hard to feel too bad for a corporation like that or Starbucks or something.
00:08:37.020
and it's not just a school, it's a Christian school.
00:08:43.080
Because the rhetoric surrounding this right away,
00:08:51.320
You know, normally, when you have a leftist who's a shooter,
00:09:06.200
And when it's a left-winger or someone who's in the left-wing coalition,
00:09:15.720
It's a gun issue, and we have to worry about guns.
00:09:17.760
That's a pretty reliable, you know, strategy for the left.
00:09:24.080
They didn't even for a moment pretend like the shooting was not about the ideology or identity
00:09:34.300
And their immediate response was, well, if states like Tennessee weren't banning the
00:09:40.160
mutilation of children and the teaching of gender ideology to kindergartners, then none
00:09:46.540
It was immediately a rush to blame the victim and no attempt to disassociate the ideology or the
00:09:54.680
identity from the violence, but instead to make it very clear that these Christians had it coming
00:10:01.540
because they opposed kind of this new state-sanctioned ideology.
00:10:08.540
And I think the thing that is really important for us to understand is that they will ignore
00:10:13.220
the rhetoric, right, when it comes to usually, they'll ignore rhetoric when it comes to, say,
00:10:16.920
a left-wing shooter or a left-wing terrorist that is ostensibly on their side because in this day
00:10:23.020
and age, progressives and leftists and liberals do not have any enemies to their left.
00:10:27.880
They'll just try and step back, usually, when the optics for such a thing happens like this.
00:10:34.980
And this is where, similarly with the issues of abortion, you would see language emerge
00:10:39.400
that we haven't seen before, like a forced birth.
00:10:42.460
Or now, more recently, we've seen that language be used for a forced adolescence or a forced
00:10:48.160
And this reinforces, I think, the outstanding kind of political mythology that exists in the
00:10:54.080
progressive mindset, which is, of course, in regards to stopping, quote-unquote, genocide
00:11:00.500
You see this quite often when it comes to the issue of transgenderism.
00:11:03.920
We want to protect our children from being indoctrinated with an ideology that is associated
00:11:08.160
with mental illness, a lifelong dependency on neurochemical-altering substances, things that
00:11:13.800
will forever change your body, wreck your bone density and your mental state, which oftentimes
00:11:21.280
And, you know, we're both fans of Dr. Paul Gottfried.
00:11:25.080
I think his most recent book about anti-fascism plots this out very well.
00:11:29.000
This is that, you know, if you were to ask these people, you know, what are the Tennessee
00:11:32.760
state legislature doing when they're banning this?
00:11:36.020
And they will have no problem labeling you a Nazi when you want to defend your children
00:11:39.760
from literal indoctrination and abuse by these people.
00:11:44.580
And so for them, and under the idea of never again, we can't let fascism be on the rise
00:11:51.020
They're filled with this cultural memory of, you know, it could never happen here, so
00:11:57.040
So for us, it may sound like, oh, wow, they're really holding our children hostage when they
00:12:01.780
talk about threatening more violence or that the actions of the Tennessee state legislature,
00:12:06.660
Oklahoma, or various other states, you know, they say, well, if you didn't do these things,
00:12:12.220
But for them, they see this as an act of self-defense to defend their right to exist.
00:12:17.620
So we have two totally different political mythologies that are coming to clash.
00:12:22.260
For us, the basic stents of civilization, which is, you know, a mom and a dad, children,
00:12:27.400
family, faith, religion, things that keep society going as they have been for as long as recorded
00:12:36.520
We're literally seeing, you know, no pun intended, but we're seeing the transvaluation of values
00:12:43.720
And so you're seeing individuals that have no family or family that they don't like because
00:12:50.080
Worse, they've got people whose parents abdicated responsibility, whether willingly or unwillingly,
00:12:55.180
and let their children be raised on the internet where they're the most vulnerable to this stuff.
00:13:01.780
They have a subreddit called egg IRL, egg being a term they use to describe people that
00:13:08.680
Literally a place that encourages the idea of grooming these individuals into the worst
00:13:16.420
And so in doing this, we're watching the government, the state, the thing that more or less is the
00:13:22.060
center of all power, which helps tell us where the culture is going to go, where the elites
00:13:26.400
are going to be raised in the next generation to lead this country, are saying, no, we do want
00:13:31.760
a class of people that will target children, that will be essentially a eunuch class that
00:13:39.240
this civilization, America's civilization has reinvented this, as we've seen in India and
00:13:46.400
And now it's here to stay apparently in America, lest we do something about it.
00:13:51.200
I have this vague memory of, I don't know, eight months ago when the left was vehemently denying
00:13:59.600
I don't know if you remember, but there was the Boston's Children's Hospital and they
00:14:04.860
were accusing libs of TikTok of lying about them and the procedures they do and trying
00:14:09.480
to incite, you know, something, some reaction about them saying, of course, these operations
00:14:21.700
And people like you and I and many in our sphere warned everybody like this is coming.
00:14:29.880
This is the inevitable conclusion of their ideology and the direction they're moving.
00:14:47.380
And eight months later, the president of the United States and secretary of health and,
00:14:55.040
you know, all of these hospitals are now openly saying we have to do this to children.
00:15:02.920
It's not enough that this option exists somewhere for adults, which, by the way, wouldn't be
00:15:07.800
To be clear for everybody, that should also not be an option.
00:15:12.180
But not only does that have to be an option, it must be pushed onto children.
00:15:17.220
And this is the social engineering that I think you're right that Paul Gottfried understands
00:15:25.780
And it's because we've erected a system that is so against nature, that is fighting natural
00:15:32.160
hierarchies and inverting them in such a severe way that even a small disagreement could kind
00:15:44.460
The hierarchy they've assembled is so unbalanced that any crack in their power could just shatter
00:15:51.720
their ability to kind of keep this thing suspended against gravity and all of the forces of nature
00:15:58.440
And so they really do see even the smallest question or restriction on the most extreme
00:16:03.160
parts of their project as an existential threat, because it really is at the end of the day.
00:16:07.860
Yeah, I mean, you could literally say that this is what Carl Schmitt would call a state
00:16:11.840
of emergency, and this is where you would need that state of emergency to decide the exception
00:16:18.140
We're experiencing right now a crisis of federal Republican democracy right before our eyes.
00:16:24.280
And for this issue, the idea of abolishing the idea that we have two sexes, that gender
00:16:31.440
is a spectrum, that we must abolish the idea that people have to go through adolescence as
00:16:36.500
they are biologically designed to and created by God to do so, has illustrated that if you
00:16:42.380
are going to fight back against this, you've created a state of emergency for the existence
00:16:48.940
And the state is making it very clear, this administration and those that support it are
00:16:53.440
making it very clear that the state of exception will be answered with violence against those
00:16:59.200
So whether it was earlier at the beginning of this year with a literal insurrection of the
00:17:05.460
Oklahoma state capitol with the legislature that wanted to ban hormone therapy, that's even
00:17:11.240
a, it's such a terrible word, you know, poison on these children.
00:17:15.160
And the same thing with recently with Tennessee, where they would storm these capitals to try
00:17:19.000
and stop the law and have people openly advocate for, and if not to absolutely take up arms to
00:17:25.400
These individuals in the spirit of abolition, you know, the abolishing of hierarchy, the
00:17:30.280
abolishing of biology, the abolishing of nature and the creation in God's image, all that
00:17:35.320
these people have done is sort of embrace this John Brown attitude that they have to reign
00:17:41.920
I know that many of our friends have called these things, you know, trannuary six or
00:17:46.760
And it's nice to do those things for clicks and to get people's attention and to play
00:17:51.700
But we can't lose sight of the fact that what is very much at stake here is the abolition
00:17:56.580
of the family, the destruction of all things that come natural to us, a man and a woman
00:18:01.860
making a child for the purpose of family and carrying on our lineage and our heritage
00:18:06.680
and our history, and instead for the total opposite of that.
00:18:11.420
And this government immediately after Nashville, and even more recently with what's happened
00:18:16.240
with Tennessee state legislature, is indicative that our normal politics, right, where we no
00:18:24.980
We try traditionally in our liberal system to, you know, settle things out like men at
00:18:29.940
the ballot box of the best ideas when and some time ago, the idea of, you know, debate
00:18:35.940
me or let's have a free open idea of discussion illustrates that that marketplace of ideas is
00:18:41.560
incredibly rigged by those in power and has culture to do so.
00:18:45.500
And that conservatives and especially those in the Republican Party and those within power
00:18:50.700
or money or influence need to recognize that they're coming after them very quickly.
00:18:56.040
I mean, you mentioned those things just eight months ago.
00:18:57.960
I remember the San Francisco Gay Men's Choir back in like 2021 talking about how they're
00:19:03.040
coming for your children, or even just yesterday, according to Axios on the 9th, that Biden is,
00:19:09.620
you know, putting out a digital strategy of an army of social media influencers in the midst
00:19:14.500
of this recent discussion over the Restrict Act.
00:19:17.480
But I think that that can also be used to push things like transgender ideology or legislation
00:19:22.640
that would help support these things on a taxpayer basis, very similarly how to the average American
00:19:28.420
taxpayer pays like, you know, some $30,000 plus a year to, you know, subsidize, you know,
00:19:35.020
pre-exposure anaphylaxis for other parts of the LGBT community.
00:19:39.940
Yeah, I think it's really important that people be careful with the term insurrectionist like you
00:19:44.940
were talking about, because I do think that is a term the left use for a particular reason.
00:19:48.200
I see a lot of people trying to adopt it to kind of kind of dunk on, you know, or kind of show that
00:19:55.160
again, the hypocrisy of the left when it comes to what happened in the state capitals. I mean,
00:20:01.000
it's very clear that the state capitals were stormed by protesters, that they were fighting
00:20:05.140
with police, that this would have landed any Donald Trump supporter into on an FBI watch list and jail
00:20:11.340
time. Obviously, we're operating on two entirely different legal systems. At this point,
00:20:17.840
that's not anything new for people who are here. But I just want to encourage people to be careful
00:20:22.700
with adopting the left's terms, because, of course, the violence and the actions of these trans
00:20:30.500
protesters and activists are terrible. And they do show the stark contrast of who has political rights
00:20:40.740
in the United States of America, and that they don't exist on both sides of the political spectrum.
00:20:45.920
But just just be aware of the language you're using, because it was selected
00:20:50.080
by the left for a reason. It's truly amazing, I think, for a lot of people, how the two of the black
00:21:00.000
representatives who were expelled from this legislature due to their action during the storming
00:21:05.640
of the Tennessee legislature were immediately praised as religious heroes, civil rights leaders,
00:21:11.680
of course, where this is all directly plugged into the civil rights narrative, the civil rights
00:21:17.520
revolution. David Hogg was talking about, it already feels like history is being made. And it's like,
00:21:23.360
yeah, because it's supposed to. This is manufactured for your benefit. You are the exact
00:21:29.920
audience for this propaganda. But the fact that none of the families of the slain,
00:21:36.000
none of the police officers involved in protecting the other children and staff of that school,
00:21:43.760
none of them were brought to the White House. None of them were, you know, met support from the
00:21:50.560
president or the vice president. But the representatives that were expelled for their gross actions and
00:21:58.560
violations of the rules were immediately honored by the left for their behavior. And this is, of course,
00:22:06.640
true of the wider reaction to this. Madonna immediately raised money for the LGBT community,
00:22:12.400
went to, is going to Nashville to raise the money, but just spitting directly onto the graves of dead
00:22:17.920
children. Just completely insulting. Like, it's very clear what the purposes of this was. You know,
00:22:24.560
there's, there's like a die-in, a trans die-in at one of these state campfalls. And if any Christian
00:22:29.440
church had done that, it would be very clear what the intention would. It would be to mock
00:22:32.800
the victims. No Christian church, of course, would do that in America at this point, for sure. But
00:22:39.520
obviously that was the direct intention. And I think it's one thing to understand that these people
00:22:45.760
hate you. It's another thing to, to watch them explicitly praise and encourage people who are
00:22:52.320
celebrating violence against, against innocent children.
00:22:56.960
Yeah. And I think that this should also be a necessary wake-up call for any Christian in
00:23:01.200
the United States, regardless of denomination, regardless of whether you live in a red state,
00:23:05.920
a city, or a small town like myself, that persecution of Christians is back on the table.
00:23:11.840
And that, you know, the history of the church is, you know, watered with the blood of countless
00:23:16.880
martyrs throughout history. And if that means that we're having to deal with that in the United States,
00:23:21.200
it looks like that's very much the case, that they're going to celebrate it, that they're going
00:23:24.720
to mock people who were six, nine years old to, to do that. And that they're comfortable with it
00:23:31.520
because, you know, you hear this all the time, whether it's by the quote unquote sort of socialist
00:23:37.040
or democratic socialist YouTubers that say that, you know, there's only acceptable targets or bad
00:23:42.960
targets in this instance. And even that kind of delineation has gone away that no, really with the
00:23:48.560
actions that had taken place here are going to go about and do it. And what makes this even more
00:23:53.840
dangerous and what makes this rather a daunting thing to talk about is that, you know, we've had
00:23:58.240
people like Tucker Carlson and we've had others about the issue of demographics in this country
00:24:02.560
with respect to immigration. We have not talked about the social contagion, a literal, a mind virus,
00:24:09.120
if you will, on this sort of transgender ideology. Right before the 2022 midterms last year,
00:24:15.280
Politico released a report from the Pew Research Center and the Human Rights Campaign discussing
00:24:21.040
the idea of the growth of LGBT voters. And they said by 2030, it'll be one in seven. And by 2040,
00:24:29.600
one in five, despite the absolute demographic numbers of how you can get that many people on
00:24:35.360
that sort of spectrum of beliefs or identities is another thing. But it illustrates that this thing
00:24:40.560
is pernicious in the way that it influences your children, your family. You see this in media,
00:24:45.920
you see this especially in social media and TikTok. I mean, there are people that libs of TikTok have
00:24:50.640
called out for literally trafficking drugs to children in order to do so. They're very adamant
00:24:56.400
about what they're going after and that they're going to lionize these people as heroes the same way
00:25:02.480
that they have lionized countless other quote unquote activists and terrorists like Angela Davis and the
00:25:08.240
rest. And so at the end of the day, when these people laugh, like the left laugh saying, oh,
00:25:13.280
that the right, you know, the conservatives can't define wokeness. I mean, it's very simple what wokeness
00:25:18.320
is. It is anti-civilization and anti-human. Yeah. And very directly, because I think Christianity is a
00:25:27.760
central part of our civilization. It is directly anti-Christian. And this has been a theme that has been made
00:25:36.400
very clear. Again, the shooter targeted a Christian school. But right after this, we had to hear from
00:25:45.280
the White House and other sources about how trans youth are going to be fierce and fight back. And
00:25:51.200
that's pretty shocking language in the face of what just happened. They're still stacking bodies
00:25:57.280
because of this movement. And we're going to talk about how fierce it is and how it's going to fight
00:26:01.120
back. And then following that, apparently, you know, it turns out that what's better than a
00:26:08.560
well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue? A well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue that
00:26:13.920
was carefully selected by an Instacart shopper and delivered to your door. A well-marbled ribeye
00:26:19.280
you ordered without even leaving the kiddie pool. Whatever groceries your summer calls for,

00:26:37.520
People in that community can listen to that rhetoric and they can respond to those dog whistles
00:26:42.240
because there was another shooter who was planning to go on a massacre in Colorado Springs. They had
00:26:50.080
targeted a middle school and, apparently, churches for this. I don't think that those
00:26:56.240
targets are any form of coincidence. I think, as you said, you know, Christianity gives a resistance
00:27:04.720
to this that few other things can. It provides an understanding of the natural hierarchy and the
00:27:09.360
natural good that is far more resistant than anything else in our culture to kind of the forces that are
00:27:16.560
assaulting it. And there's a reason that they're being specifically targeted by this violence.
00:27:22.400
And again, the fact that a second shooter came right on the heels of all of this rhetoric and all
00:27:29.680
of this praise and all of this encouragement. I mean, the protesters in Nashville were saying
00:27:34.880
seven victims, not six. They're specifically going out of their way to include the shooter themselves
00:27:42.000
who murdered children as a victim of this crime. And when you see that there's really, again,
00:27:48.880
there's just no other way to understand it. Then this rhetoric is used intentionally.
00:27:54.800
This praise is used intentionally. This ideology is pushed intentionally and the people involved are
00:28:01.840
not very careful about why they're doing this. They're not, they're not really hedging their bets
00:28:07.040
anymore. They're not really being, being very, uh, you know, they're, they're not really obfuscating
00:28:12.080
their reasoning as to why they're pushing it. They're putting it out from out front and making
00:28:16.400
it very clear opposite opposition to any part of this agenda is inviting violence from it. And the state
00:28:23.280
will lavish praise on those who engage in activism and support of this stuff.
00:28:29.360
Yeah, absolutely. And we're going to see more of it. I mean, the social media has been ablaze with
00:28:36.080
respects to advertising government officials. I mean, in the midst of all of this, right, you,
00:28:42.000
you literally had, and this is the inversion of what we're dealing with here is that you had Drew
00:28:46.000
Barrymore on her knees in front of a man, Dylan Mulvaney, right? Like, you know, any other time that
00:28:51.920
you would imagine a woman on her knees in front of a man evokes powerful, you know, rather perverse
00:28:57.840
imagery for what is to come up. And that really illustrates what we're dealing with here is that a man
00:29:02.880
playing the minstrel show of a woman, you know, is now standing right in front of a woman who's on
00:29:09.200
her knees before him. And the same way now that you saw with, with Bud Light and doing their recent
00:29:14.560
365 days celebrating this individual to a point where there's Facebook advertising saying, you know,
00:29:20.800
you know, Budweiser before they went gay, you know, with respects to their marketing. And so
00:29:25.600
it's totalizing. And the only thing that that shooter is a victim of is abuse, which, you know,
00:29:32.400
had incorporated an ideology and a culture that told them that no, their fellow man is actually
00:29:37.840
worth killing because of some made up idea of existence and nature. And that's going to be
00:29:43.600
what it is going forward. I mean, we talk about anarcho tyranny, the famous concept coined by Sam
00:29:48.640
Francis decades ago. Well, it's no longer anarcho tyranny. This is very much state sponsored action,
00:29:54.480
and that this is endorsed by the state. And it's now a low intensity conflict. We're no longer
00:29:59.760
meddling it out or battling it out at the ballot box. If you stand in opposition to this based on
00:30:05.420
your own values, the fact that you have skin in the game because you have young children,
00:30:09.300
or that you're a Christian or any other faith that goes against this, they will have no problem
00:30:15.380
saying that you're a part of the problem and that violence is the only way to meddle this out.
00:30:19.660
Yeah, that's exactly right. I mean, we look at what the Biden education department is doing.
00:30:26.460
They're planning to use Title IX, which might be one of the most abusive pieces of
00:30:36.620
legal architecture in the United States, to push the fact that states are not allowed to ban
00:30:44.220
any kind of men playing in women's sports. They're not allowed to... By the way, guys,
00:30:52.060
there's not biological men or women. There's just men and women that means the same thing.
00:30:56.140
But no reason to hedge your language there. But they're going out of their way to basically make
00:31:02.700
it clear that any funding from the federal government can be denied based on the fact that you don't let
00:31:09.900
men beat up women or you don't let boys beat up girls in any given sport for your education system.
00:31:17.660
And immediately after this, we see the swimmer Riley Gaines attacked by a mob, like literally
00:31:23.900
struck, held captive. They're demanding money to let her leave. She's functionally kidnapped and who
00:31:32.220
knows what kind of legal charges will come. But it seems very clear. Again, no big leftist announcements.
00:31:38.300
Not a lot of people saying this is too far. We're forming mobs, attacking female athletes. And of
00:31:43.980
course, none of this, no hesitation from the administration saying, hey guys, maybe we shouldn't
00:31:50.300
be pushing these policies if they're literally justifying direct violence against female athletes.
00:31:56.380
But that's obviously, like you're saying, that's the plan at this point. It's very clear.
00:32:01.020
Now, you link this to another time in our history, one that's pretty ominous in many ways,
00:32:07.420
but I think is very valuable. That's kind of where the title of the stream came from and the title of
00:32:12.780
your piece came from. Can you talk a little bit about kind of the pre-Civil War United States,
00:32:19.420
the buildup of the slave states, bleeding Kansas and how that kind of relates to the situation we're in
00:32:23.900
now? Absolutely. So yeah, the inspiration for the article and the title was that this sort of action by
00:32:32.540
the shooter and the recent storming of capitals has been about political balance, control,
00:32:38.220
and representation, very similar to our antebellum history in the United States with respects to
00:32:45.020
a long struggle inside the 1850s in the Kansas territory known as Bleeding Kansas. You don't need
00:32:53.020
to know too much about it other than the fact that it was a prelude of the oncoming violence that would
00:32:57.740
cost roughly 600,000 lives. But it had free state settlers and supporters, radical abolitionists
00:33:05.900
against slavery, as well as slave state settlers and border ruffians coming over from Missouri to
00:33:12.540
support the cause. That way, whoever had the most political control over the Kansas territory,
00:33:18.540
when it set up its constitution and it set up its government system, that it would either be a free
00:33:23.980
state or a slave state, which has been the, prior to the Civil War, the longest history of balance
00:33:29.820
between how many slave states are there represented in the Senate and how many free states are represented
00:33:34.380
in the Senate, trying to maintain a healthy and hardy balance. Now, during this time in the 1850s,
00:33:40.620
only about, according, your records may vary, but roughly 59 to 100 people were killed and associated
00:33:47.180
with these clashes. It's a very low-intensity conflict. Not many people would die in comparison to
00:33:52.220
the 600,000 lives lost in the war between the states. But in this instance, these ideas,
00:33:58.540
the institution of slavery, in this instance, the institution to mutilate children, are now being
00:34:04.620
fought out over weapons. You have groups, for example, in New England called Rainbow Reload,
00:34:11.100
which are advocating straw purchases, which are against the law, mind you, so that individuals that
00:34:17.580
identify as trans or LGBT or whatever, usually associated by the law of averages with mental
00:34:23.820
illnesses, to make sure that they have guns. That their whole idea is to make fascists afraid
00:34:29.260
again. So by simply advocating that I want my child to grow up in the sex that they were born in,
00:34:35.820
not only labels you as a fascist, but it puts you on the side of the Nazis, it puts you on the side of
00:34:40.620
the confederacy, it puts you on the side of even the British crown back in the Revolutionary War.
00:34:46.300
So for a crowd of individuals that have no love for the American history or its country or its people,
00:34:53.020
they sure love it when they can talk about their side, the good guys, quote unquote, unleashing
00:34:59.180
untold amounts of violence against their political enemies. And so whether it's burning presses and the
00:35:07.500
newspapers that are out there in this instance, in today's context, disabling people from promoting
00:35:13.020
their material, getting them banned off Twitter or threatening their lives, as we've seen with
00:35:17.740
numerous activists or with Riley Gaines, and then to see people in the university system or the
00:35:22.780
government advocate for it through their intermediaries in the press, or even the university
00:35:27.820
president saying that they're proud of the activists bravery in standing. And so, and I mean,
00:35:33.340
even now you've seen on Twitter, people saying, you know, screw around and find out when it comes to,
00:35:38.700
you know, trying to ban child mutilation and the ideology of mutilation, the social programming
00:35:44.620
that's been around, whether it's from the White House, the civil rights legislation that we sort of
00:35:50.140
build the stuff off of with the concept of disparate impact, or even more nefariously, the groups like
00:35:55.580
the Tavistock Institute. So, you know, this piece is to reflect a parallel in our history where deeply held
00:36:02.540
political ideas, whether that's slavery and abolition or today in 2023, it's the idea that,
00:36:08.620
you know, you can be anything that you want with just a couple of cuts under the knife and a little
00:36:13.660
bit of hormone therapy for the rest of your life. That's what we're dealing with. And that was the
00:36:18.540
inspiration for the article is that low intensity political violence has happened before in this
00:36:23.340
country. And if the Nashville shooting, the recent events in state capitals and universities are any
00:36:28.620
indication, it's well and alive in America today. Yeah. And the reason I found your comparison so
00:36:36.460
compelling is, you know, during that time, the manipulation of the democratic process was the
00:36:44.140
really key focus for a lot of people. Everyone kind of understood a storm was on the horizon and
00:36:50.140
they didn't know exactly what it looks like, but they knew that capturing every bit of loose power
00:36:55.180
was absolutely essential. And so people were willing to move to entirely different states
00:37:00.620
in hopes of, you know, basically in participating in that low grade conflict that you're talking about,
00:37:07.900
low intensity conflict, and also, you know, manipulating the democratic process of the system
00:37:13.740
in hopes of bringing down a victory for their preferred group. And we're not quite to the point where
00:37:19.660
people are rushing to other states just for that purpose. But we are seeing, I think, in many ways,
00:37:25.020
the great sort in this country, we do see a lot of people moving, you know, out of the Northeast
00:37:31.660
because of COVID or California because of COVID restrictions, and people moving out of the South
00:37:37.260
because of maybe an abortion restriction. And so we're seeing a lot of, you know, people now having
00:37:44.380
to vote with their feet when it comes to their political ideology because the gulf in the culture
00:37:52.300
has become so large that staying inside a state with an alternative ideology to your own really
00:38:00.140
feels like being oppressed, feels like you cannot exist in that community anymore. And as we see the
00:38:07.980
states become bluer or redder, and we see the acceleration of legislation that is basically
00:38:17.260
fundamentally opposed to what the other side wants, I think we're only going to see people inside those
00:38:23.740
states who are still left and have not moved become more extreme in their actions in an attempt to
00:38:30.220
influence what's going on there. And that's a very, it's a very scary place to be for a lot of people
00:38:37.100
because we're, we're putting ourselves more and more in situations where people feel like they
00:38:42.220
simply cannot exist inside a particular state. And unfortunately, while it would be great if
00:38:48.940
everyone just moved to their preferred state and we could just kind of do our own thing and federalism
00:38:53.340
would actually work, it's very clear from the actions of someone like the Biden administration that
00:38:57.260
they're going to use everything, Title IX, civil rights law, anything that they can get their hands on
00:39:02.300
to make sure that their ideology reigns supreme in even inside of states that have no interest
00:39:08.220
in participating. And the Democratic will be will be entirely subverted through kind of this process of
00:39:16.060
kind of cracking the ability of states to function independently if they don't get on board with
00:39:21.740
this. I would agree with that wholeheartedly. And the other thing that is really important for people
00:39:27.420
to understand is that you can vote with your feet and you can flee a major metropolitan area that's
00:39:33.900
got a crime problem, homeless encampments and drugs everywhere where the police aren't allowed to do
00:39:38.940
anything. The problem, however, is that ideology doesn't care about geography. I live in a place where
00:39:45.820
people can ride their horses to their local high school and have no problem getting around and literally
00:39:50.860
look like something out of a country western film. But that doesn't stop them from opening their mouths and
00:39:55.660
saying the latest sort of trends that you would see on YouTube, TikTok and Twitter.
00:40:00.460
Ideology is a very pernicious thing. And if you control the levers of power and the procedural
00:40:05.020
manipulation to get a desired result, whether it be Title IX, dear colleague letters, government funding
00:40:11.340
through the Department of Education, or hiring a new digital strategy to have TikTok influencers,
00:40:16.700
sub-stackers and tweeters out there telling you that this is the only way to live,
00:40:21.740
then you aren't safe by the nature of fleeing away to a red state or a part of the, you know,
00:40:27.820
the boonies. It will eventually come for you. And this is the problem that the right and conservatives
00:40:34.060
or really anyone that stands against this, you know, abolition of childhood, this abolition of
00:40:40.700
childhood innocence and biological reality has to understand is that, you know, it's like you've said all the
00:40:48.140
time, Oren, on Twitter and on your sub-stack and on the show, it says that, you know, the side that wants
00:40:53.340
to be left alone will always lose to the side that wants to win. And right now, the people that want to win
00:40:58.780
are the people that want to literally mutilate and transition your children without your consent.
00:41:04.940
Yeah, it was just, there was, I think it was like a Washington Post story, and they were talking about
00:41:09.180
how they had had staffers watch 1100 episodes of Tucker Carlson so they could show, you know, how
00:41:16.780
all his conspiracy theories and debunk him. And I was just thinking to myself, you know, say what
00:41:21.020
you want about the left. They understand what it takes to win. Those people, not only will they,
00:41:25.900
will they watch that stuff, not only will they watch like, you know, a thousand episodes of something
00:41:29.820
they'll hate, and not only will the left pay them to do it, people will crawl over broken glass for
00:41:35.820
the honor of having the jobs in which they do that. The, you know, journalism is still
00:41:40.140
a surprisingly competitive field, despite all of the terrible things about it, terrible pay and
00:41:44.860
everything else about it, because the left is so ideological, ideologically committed to victory,
00:41:50.780
that they will literally do anything and fund anything for victory. And I think it's just wild that
00:41:56.540
people kind of don't grasp how, how extreme some of them have become in that pursuit. I mean,
00:42:03.260
to the point of, of hiding in red states, you know, we looked at just what happened with Texas.
00:42:08.940
And, uh, you know, uh, in Austin, uh, a BLM protester was shot by someone who was in a car
00:42:15.900
because the protester had an AK 47 at low ready, you know, trying to open the window. And the guy's like,
00:42:21.500
uh, yeah, no, I prefer you not kill me here. And that guy got convicted of murder. Now, hopefully it
00:42:27.100
looks like Greg Abbott is actually been kind of spurred to action and might actually be able to
00:42:32.540
pardon this individual. But the, the idea that you're simply going to hide out in a red state
00:42:37.740
and everything will be fine. It's very clear that even in states that are seen as pretty red though,
00:42:42.220
I understand Texas, not necessarily as red as people think it is, but, but that, that strategy
00:42:48.620
alone is simply not safe when it comes to the ability of the left to kind of manipulate the legal
00:42:53.580
system and make sure that even in some of the red states, you have blue cities where 12 jurors will
00:42:59.820
happily convict someone simply due to their ideology. Yeah. I mean, Travis County has no
00:43:04.620
rule of law, only the politics of that county, and it is heavily progressive. Now I'm glad that
00:43:10.140
Greg Abbott is doing something. He's a little constitutionally limited on what he can do,
00:43:13.820
as he said in his press statement, but it does illustrate that even if you flee, um,
00:43:18.060
the cities are still not politically your friend at all. And you have to be incredibly careful of what
00:43:22.540
you're dealing with. And they know this and they have no problem convicting you and they have no
00:43:27.740
problem telling you time and time again, that no, you can't defend yourself. The only acceptable way
00:43:33.260
out for you in this political situation is to submit or in more likely in many cases, as we've seen on
00:43:39.100
this issue is to lose your life, um, and be, you know, spat upon at your grave. And I mean, this just goes
00:43:46.300
back to a long history of how, you know, the, the concept of cultivation theory of what we see on,
00:43:53.020
on television and in popular media and in our authorities that we cultivate that and that
00:43:58.380
becomes part of our culture. I mean, we went from the last episode of the original run of
00:44:03.420
will and grace. And in less than a decade, you had gay marriage legalized and you had, I am jazz
00:44:09.100
appearing on TLC and things have exploded since then. You know, the slippery slope is the
00:44:14.700
unabashed champion of American progress when it comes to this country, because we keep going
00:44:19.180
further down the gradient. And when that's the case, they're going to constantly take a look at
00:44:25.100
what they can do to expand their victories. Reading the room doesn't matter to them because
00:44:29.660
they have become emboldened not only by this ideology, but by those that wield the ideological
00:44:35.980
levers of power and media access. You know, no one, you know, two years ago would have told you that,
00:44:41.980
you know, Dylan Mulvaney is going to be some major character. Just no one knew who they were.
00:44:45.900
Or even more recently, you know, they're, they're trying to come at it in the angle of religion
00:44:51.020
because progressivism in America takes on a particular Christian and Unitarian veneer
00:44:57.100
in order to take action. So you get an individual like Charles Clymer, who goes by the name Charlotte
00:45:03.260
in, as an advocate for an organization called Catholics for Choice saying that, you know, actually,
00:45:08.540
no, God made them trans, despite the fact that, you know, we'll just throw Deuteronomy 23,
00:45:13.740
one out the window about getting into the kingdom of heaven. But that's the instance that we're in
00:45:17.580
right now. This is that all aspects of this ideology are totalizing. And if power maintains
00:45:23.740
the control that it has, it will continue to do so for every person that has a progressive opinion.
00:45:29.180
And there are multiple studies that indicate that in the United States, if you have liberal views,
00:45:34.220
you're more likely to be swayed or to become a trans individual, because that's the way for a
00:45:39.660
lot of progressives to see themselves maintaining their status in hierarchy, especially for say,
00:45:45.580
you know, white liberals, they'll just simply say, Oh, I, I'm non binary, or I'm transgender in order to,
00:45:51.180
you know, not get packed on by the issues of race or other political progressive pet projects,
00:45:56.940
because that's how all encompassing this system is. This is, as you like to say,
00:46:01.500
this is the total state, it is totalizing all encompassing, and it will do what it takes in
00:46:07.020
order to win. Yeah, they really did need that way. White liberals who had buried themselves in the,
00:46:13.980
in the ideology had needed a way to kind of hack the system and get back to the top of the oppression
00:46:18.860
pyramid and LGBTQ prioritization has really made that something that given them that option that they
00:46:25.580
otherwise didn't have. But I wanted to ask you one more thing before we go to the questions of the
00:46:30.220
people. I did a thread a few days ago, that kind of went wide on Twitter. And I was pointing out the,
00:46:37.500
you know, the kick the dog until a bite strategy. And it's very clear to me that this is something
00:46:42.460
the left is doing, where, you know, you kick the dog, you kick the dog, and then when it finally bites
00:46:49.180
in an attempt to defend itself, you shoot it and, you know, you have justified, you know, look,
00:46:53.420
it's violent, it's a mad dog, I had to put it down. And it seems very clear to me that the left is so
00:47:00.220
brazen with this stuff. And they're encouraging this stuff. And they're praising this stuff, because
00:47:04.780
they're desperately hoping to provoke a reaction that gets them the new trans George Floyd that
00:47:10.700
gets them another summer of love that gets them a January 6 that allows them to deploy the security
00:47:16.700
state against their political enemies that allows them to collapse what's left of state autonomy,
00:47:23.740
and destroy the ability of states to protect children from this ideology.
00:47:27.980
I want to, a couple people, you know, there's some responses to that one, do you think that's true?
00:47:33.900
Two, do you think it's conscious? Well, I guess we'll start with that. Do you think it's,
00:47:38.220
do you think that that is a strategy that they're deploying? And if so, do you think it's something
00:47:43.020
they're doing consciously? Or is just a natural progression of the situation we're in?
00:47:48.860
Well, I think it's a strategy that they've happily used before. I mean, any time that there has been a
00:47:54.620
self defense like situation that has taken place, whether it's, of course, more recently with Mr. Perry,
00:48:00.700
or throughout the history of say, you know, dealing with Black Lives Matter protesters, or,
00:48:05.660
I mean, really, this does kind of kick off all the way back to like Zimmerman and that sort of case.
00:48:10.620
And they love it when you, you know, defend yourself, because they'll throw the book at you,
00:48:14.860
despite the fact that you have on paper a right to do so, which is to defend yourself. And so
00:48:19.980
I think that they would love for more and more action to take place so that they can say,
00:48:25.260
see how radical these MAGA extremists are, we need to deploy all powers of the, you know,
00:48:31.500
federal security state in order to defend the country and preserve democracy. And we see that in
00:48:36.300
a lot of ways already, whether it's the FBI having sort of a incel terror watch list,
00:48:41.500
that if you tweet out the words based and red pilled, you know, you're already on somebody's
00:48:45.260
list. And I think that they consciously do it. And they egg you on because they know on their side,
00:48:51.340
they have the full power and backing of the United States government, specifically the federal
00:48:56.220
government, and by most happenstances, the popular culture in the media. So anytime that you go out
00:49:01.900
there, they they're going to be like, see, you're just like, you know, pop culture, bad guy number,
00:49:06.940
you know, 2767, right? It's the reason why all Christians nowadays in popular media and television
00:49:13.980
are depicted as the bad guy, despite being, you know, the opposite of a bad guy in real life.
00:49:19.580
And this is where we're at now. And so I do think in a lot of ways, they would love for the dog to be
00:49:24.460
kicked so it could bite and like an ATF agent, they can just shoot the dog and move on with their business.
00:49:29.180
On the other hand, I do think that if that were to happen, you know, they're going to go after
00:49:35.900
individual cases where it was clearly justified for self-defense or whatever they're doing. And
00:49:41.180
that'll be the way forward. And as I like to say quite often on Twitter, server rules prevent me
00:49:46.140
from saying what I'd like to say. So I think that the strategy of kicking the dog until the bites has
00:49:51.900
been a very classic one by this government. Yeah. And specifically, when you look at something like
00:49:56.460
the George Zimmerman case, I mean, think about the way the media treated that when it first came out.
00:50:00.380
Oh, it's everything they wanted. There's almost an orgiastic delight when the Zimmerman case came
00:50:05.020
out because, oh, this, you know, this guy is going to be, you know, some crazy white guy. He's probably
00:50:09.260
got some, some history of Christian extremism, you know, being anti, anti-abortion, a gun nut,
00:50:15.740
you know, or whatever. And, and, oh, this is everything we need to kind of push our agenda. The
00:50:20.460
president called him, you know, his, you know, basically it's my child, you know, blah, blah,
00:50:24.220
blah. And then kind of as the story kind of slowly unraveled, you see, well, actually it turns out
00:50:29.260
George Zimmerman is not really white. He's, he's a white Hispanic, which sure. And then actually it
00:50:35.260
turns out he might have had, uh, African ancestry in his, you know, in his background as well. And
00:50:41.580
actually this looks a lot like, uh, you know, perhaps, you know, two minorities, you know, engaging in
00:50:48.220
violence against each other. Oh, and by the way, it turns out his head was pummeled against the
00:50:52.300
ground. He's bleeding in his scalp and just all these parts of the story come out and they're
00:50:56.700
really inconvenient to the narrative. And even in that instance where there are so many things that
00:51:01.500
push back against the narrative, still, if you ask most people what they remember about George
00:51:05.340
Zimmerman, he's some white guy who shot a black kid for being black. Right. And so it's amazing that
00:51:10.540
even when all of the facts about the, uh, about the case can contradict the narrative, eventually the
00:51:16.060
thing that's immediately announced is that, that, that first mover advantage of controlling all of
00:51:22.220
the mainstream media really allows the left to submit any story where it is. We saw the same thing
00:51:28.060
with like January 6th, you know, where, where the, you know, we put out a storyline. That's the one
00:51:32.860
that, that most people understand. And even if the details and me eventually unravel parts of the
00:51:38.700
narrative, they'll be heard and understood and believed by smaller and smaller percentages of the
00:51:44.460
population. So we still kind of control the basics of this. And this is why I told people to stay
00:51:49.820
frosty and to kind of just avoid bad situations. I know a lot of people are like, oh, okay, then you
00:51:56.140
just don't do anything. That's not what I'm saying. But, but I think Jesse Kelly had a good point.
00:52:00.700
You know, recently he said, you watch the left protest and you watch the left change things with
00:52:07.020
protests. We all understand that that's not really how it works, but, but you watch the left take these
00:52:12.460
basically super, uh, or, or these, these, uh, non-constitutional actions, these illegal actions
00:52:19.100
and be successful with them. And you want to do that. And it's like watching Mike Tyson knock
00:52:24.220
somebody out in 10 seconds and saying, I want to do that without like doing any of the training and
00:52:28.940
any of the roadwork and any of the weightlifting and not doing like the thousands and thousands and
00:52:34.300
thousands of hours of grinding and practice, put yourself in that position. You just aren't in that
00:52:38.540
position right now. And before you can be in any position where you have effective, uh, resistance
00:52:45.660
to what the left is doing, we got to put in the work. You got to put in the work of, uh, politically,
00:52:51.660
you got to put in the work personally. You have to be in a situation where you're strengthening your
00:52:56.940
community. You're strengthening your control over your local area. You're making sure that your sheriff
00:53:03.100
is friendly to your, your cause your school board is friendly to your cause. You're in an area where
00:53:08.860
you have that kind of leverage because the left controls these areas. And if you go to them and
00:53:15.740
you take the same actions that the left take in them, you will be destroyed because they have a
00:53:21.260
political, they have a two tiered justice system. You do not have control of it. And so I think it's just
00:53:26.060
really important for people to understand that, uh, the things the left are doing now. And the reason
00:53:31.740
they're getting away from them is they put in so much work way up ahead of this. They're, they're,
00:53:36.220
they're, they're many decades ahead of you, which you're looking at as a multi-generational problem
00:53:41.020
and you pushing back in one scenario will only be used and manipulated, uh, by the media as a way to
00:53:50.620
kind of wreck you. Not that the media is not going to lie about you anyway. They obviously are,
00:53:54.380
but just be aware that you have to build institutions and communities and political power
00:54:00.860
before you can really push back into this stuff. It's not the other way around. You don't push
00:54:04.700
back and then you get the power, you, you get the power and then it gives you the opportunity to
00:54:09.260
oppose the stuff in a more effective way. And so I'm not saying don't oppose this stuff. I'm saying
00:54:14.620
oppose in a way that is intelligent and is powerful, is multi-generational, that matters, that is effective
00:54:22.780
rather than it's something that feels good in the moment or feels, you know, that gives you a burst of
00:54:27.500
dopamine of, of, of political heroin and then immediately drops you into a terrible situation.
00:54:32.940
That I think that's, that's really key. I don't know what your thoughts are about that,
00:54:35.900
but I just want to leave people with that. No, I mean, that's a, those were all very good points.
00:54:39.980
And I think that, you know, as we talk about what the history of, you know, our, our political action,
00:54:44.300
that even though people like, you know, Kelly or John Derbyshire were right when it came to the issues
00:54:50.140
of like Zimmerman and the others, that people will look at what you had just laid out in the last,
00:54:54.780
well, how do you do that? And I think that one of the first things that we also need to recognize
00:54:59.020
as conservatives is on the right or whatever you want to call yourself is the same issue that our
00:55:03.740
friends over on the good old boys podcast talk about, which is patronage. The left has a well
00:55:08.780
integrated, well-funded patronage network to ensure that people who are rich, wealthy, and progressive
00:55:14.940
can fund the most ugly, dysgenic people on earth to commit wanton violence and acts of terrorism
00:55:21.260
against people like you. Uh, the right doesn't necessarily have this because we're all kind of
00:55:25.820
all out for ourselves. We don't particularly collectivize. We don't have organizations or
00:55:29.580
things like that. And so being friendly with your judge, being friendly with your sheriff,
00:55:33.820
being friendly with just an ordinary group of people that would be able to clear a roadway from
00:55:39.180
like trees or things being blocked in the way of it, or how to take out fires relatively quickly
00:55:44.140
are going to help you in the long run. If you have something that you can provide,
00:55:48.060
whether that's financial support, political connections, or resources to make sure that
00:55:53.180
people who are struggling because they were doxxed or quit there were fired from their job because they
00:55:57.900
held the politically incorrect opinions, that gives you a substantial amount of power in ways that many
00:56:04.380
people on the right have forgotten how to leverage. People should hearken back to the people of Tammany
00:56:10.620
Hall and Boss Tweed and recognize how politics operated back then, because it still operates very well
00:56:15.900
today, just with social media, Cash App and Venmo, and you know, the levers of power and government,
00:56:21.100
both state and federal. And the right needs to recognize that power does create itself with
00:56:27.340
opportunity. And the opportunity for the right right now is to create networks of patronage,
00:56:32.300
political support, and to make sure that you're not alone. I mean, Oren and I are right now just
00:56:37.100
talking on the internet right now, but that doesn't stop us from having opportunities to meet,
00:56:41.740
host conferences, and things like that. I mean, one of the aspects of, say, the Old Glory Club,
00:56:46.060
as we talked about in this article, is that we want to be able to support people in the future who,
00:56:51.180
like that firefighter in Virginia, was fired for simply donating to Kyle Rittenhouse's legal defense
00:56:57.980
fund. Those are the things that need to happen for the right to maintain not just some semblance of
00:57:03.580
power, but more importantly, anti-fragility against a state that wants you broke, dead, or transitioned.
00:57:12.700
Yeah, it's really essential for people to grasp that dependency breeds loyalty, and that this
00:57:20.700
network and reciprocal relationship of patron and client is what builds a force that can actually do
00:57:29.020
good. And you have to be willing to make that investment personally and otherwise. There are so
00:57:39.100
many people on the right, big donors and such, who are happy to pour tens of millions of dollars into
00:57:46.780
campaigns, thinking that that's going to be the big change, but won't put even a small amount of money
00:57:52.780
into making sure that there's an effective strategy for people to find jobs or people to network or
00:57:59.820
people to be protected if they do something like you're talking about where they donate to the wrong
00:58:05.900
person. They're not willing to play the small ball, and because they're not willing to play the small
00:58:10.620
ball, they can't even imagine a scenario in which they would get to do anything else. And so I really
00:58:15.580
think it's important for people to have that mindset of building, understanding that the short-term wins
00:58:21.660
won't come, but the long-term wins will happen if you put the short-term work in now, or the long-term
00:58:27.900
work in now. All right guys, we're going to move over to the questions of the people, but of course before
00:58:31.980
we do that, Mr. Prudentialist, please share where people can find all of your excellent work.
00:58:36.860
Sure. Once again, Oren, thank you for having me on. I look forward to answering questions. You can find
00:58:40.460
most of my work on YouTube, Twitter, Substack, and any other streaming platform with videos and blog posts,
00:58:47.580
but all of them can be conveniently found at a great little website called findmyfriends,
00:58:52.060
f-r-e-n-s dot net slash the Prudentialist. You'll find access to where all of my work is,
00:58:57.580
what I'm currently up to, and what I have been doing, including being here on Oren Show.
00:59:03.020
Yeah, speaking of alternative institutions and little things that you don't think make a big
00:59:07.100
difference, but do our friend, our mutual friend, Charlemagne created findmyfriends when the link
00:59:13.660
tree started getting ideological and banning people for that. And that's a safe place where creators
00:59:19.020
can, you know, share their work and not have to worry about ideological cancellation. So just small
00:59:24.860
things like that, guys, things that don't seem like a big deal, maybe only take you an afternoon or
00:59:28.860
something can matter. And so that's just a, another good example of something small, but something that
00:59:34.940
can make a difference in the long term, even though it's, it's just one in many stones in,
00:59:40.220
in a building that has to be built. All right, Creeper Weirdo here for $2. It's not happening,
00:59:45.580
but, but if it was, it would be good. Yes. If anyone has not read the Celebration Parallax
00:59:51.580
essay by Michael Anton, you should of course do that immediately. It's a great essay. I believe
00:59:56.620
Skeptical Waves, shout out to Skeptical Waves, has it in audio form on his channel. So make sure
01:00:02.700
that you are checking that out. It is very insightful. Uh, Creeper Weirdo again here for
01:00:07.980
$5. You guys ever watch Read A Clockwork Orange? It hits a little different nowadays.
01:00:13.100
Odd that, yes, I've seen the movie though. I've never read Clockwork Orange. You ever read Clockwork
01:00:17.100
Orange? I have, and the book definitely hits a little different in 2023. For sure. Uh, let's see here.
01:00:25.100
Uh, Creeper Weirdo one more time. Thank you very much, sir. There's an FBI program teaching high
01:00:29.820
schoolers here in Oregon. Isn't that weird? Uh, yeah. Like the, the joke I made online is
01:00:36.140
there's a, there's a, uh, a bot, uh, I guess there's now an AI program and people were warning
01:00:41.900
about how AI might, uh, radicalize, uh, you know, youth online. And then my joke was FBI getting
01:00:48.140
automated out of a job by, uh, by AI, but yeah, no. Uh, let's see. Yeah. It doesn't, I'm not surprised
01:00:55.580
that, you know, we're teaching kids to glow so early. All right. Uh, Maddie Ice here for $10. I
01:01:02.540
keep seeing them talk about transgenocide. Is it possible that someone who had their penis
01:01:07.980
socially inferred perhaps a problem with accurate categorization? Uh, yeah, obviously, um, it's,
01:01:14.860
the rhetoric there is chosen specifically. It's obviously an accelerant. Um, this isn't true. It's
01:01:20.620
not even approaching true if you look at the numbers, uh, but it doesn't matter because once
01:01:26.860
the, uh, kind of, uh, rhetoric is out there and it's been embraced, then they can use it to drive
01:01:33.340
people who are obviously by definition, mentally unstable towards making even worse, uh, choices.
01:01:40.140
And, uh, that's something that unfortunately ends in a very predictable and a horrific way,
01:01:45.500
but it doesn't seem to be something that bothers those who are answering that rhetoric.
01:01:50.460
Uh, yeah, I would just reiterate Paul Gottfried's 2021 book, uh, anti-fascism,
01:01:56.940
of course of crusade, because that really does highlight that if you can label it in the imagery
01:02:01.820
of world war II and genocide, then you kind of have that moral carte blanche feeling of I can
01:02:07.900
attack and defend based on self-existence and bashing fascists heads in.
01:02:13.260
Yeah. This, this is so much of what's happening right now. It's always placed in this existential,
01:02:18.140
and this is where the Carl Schmitt gets scary. The, the, the friend enemy distinction on a very
01:02:21.980
real sense, you know, I've explained a lot of people see the friend enemy and they think it's
01:02:26.060
just, uh, like, Oh, friends, good enemies, bad. And yes it is. But, uh, the, the, but that's kind
01:02:31.020
of a very meme shallow level of understanding it. Carl Schmitt puts it, you know, uh, in, in far more
01:02:36.460
stark terms where the, the enemy is the alien, the, that which cannot be understood and cannot be,
01:02:42.780
uh, permitted because it, it threatens kind of the, the group. And it's very clear that, um, our regime
01:02:50.460
is, is couches everything. Like you said, in the rhetoric of anti-fascist, because the fascism is
01:02:55.820
the enemy. It is that which is alien and unimaginable and cannot be allowed to exist. There's a reason
01:03:02.220
they're calling everyone fascist at this point. There's a reason they move from racist to fascist.
01:03:06.700
And it's because they want to make it very clear. You don't have the right to exist. Like you, you,
01:03:11.100
you are the enemy, you are the outside, you are the alien and that which can be not be permitted
01:03:16.060
inside the political community. Uh, and so you must be removed from the political community. And when you
01:03:21.420
have a threat that that's real and that that's, that, that's, that is that existential, then you can
01:03:27.820
justify almost anything, which is why the, the, the, you know, pump and punch a Nazi meme with Richard
01:03:32.940
Spencer became such a thing on the left, right? Where, you know, uh, whatever the, the deep,
01:03:37.900
deep, deep faults of Richard Spencer, uh, obviously they, they were trying to normalize a particular
01:03:43.260
response, uh, and, and apply that understanding of people to everyone, uh, who might disagree with the
01:03:50.940
left. And they are trying to normalize, uh, violence against people pretty directly. And, uh,
01:03:57.260
I don't think there's at this point, any way to deny that that is, uh, something that has become
01:04:01.580
a key part of the leftist acceleration of the rhetoric. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, this is the,
01:04:07.820
the key goal. This is that in, in today's year of our Lord, 2023, that, you know, anything that gets
01:04:15.020
labeled fascist is given, you know, the permission by polite society, the media, the government, that
01:04:21.580
that is the only acceptable thing that you can wantonly murder, even if it's the furthest thing
01:04:26.620
from fascism on earth. Uh, Karen sour, thank you for your super chat, but I am going to avoid reading
01:04:33.740
it just out of an abundance of caution, but I appreciate your super chat. And then, uh, Holmes
01:04:41.900
goad here for $5. There's no more self-evident truth than what a woman is. Yeah. So that, I mean,
01:04:48.140
that's obviously, um, the, the, where we've gotten to where all of this is been deconstructed to where they
01:04:56.220
can't even understand this. And, you know, it's interesting. I've been told that, that liberalism
01:05:04.300
and wokeness don't have any kind of connection because liberalism is just this, uh, it's this
01:05:09.820
completely objective and rational understanding of human existence as where wokeness is like exactly
01:05:14.860
the opposite of that. But I think it's weird that if you went around and like at this point
01:05:19.820
spoke to plenty of anti-woke people, even they wouldn't be able to come to a complete consensus
01:05:24.620
on the definition of woman or the definition of marriage. And so I I'm, I'm a little, I'm a little
01:05:30.380
unsure if even our last generation of liberals has what it takes to kind of push back and, and, uh,
01:05:38.140
oppose this stuff. I think you kind of have to have a deeper grounding, something in tradition,
01:05:42.300
something in religion, something like Christianity or, or other traditions that provide you, uh, the
01:05:47.500
ability to truly stand on truth and understand the, the deep purposes and meanings of, uh,
01:05:54.380
these institutions and these definitions. It is amazing that the more we progress, the less able
01:06:00.300
we are to recognize something that any peasant in the 1300s could have totally grasped much, much easier.
01:06:07.100
Yeah. I mean, that's exactly what Nick Land wrote about in the dark enlightenment was this,
01:06:10.780
that the left loves dialectical games because that creates new opportunities for power.
01:06:14.940
Even if that means we lose those definitions for words.
01:06:17.740
Nick Landry Absolutely. And, uh, uh, Joshua Beebe here for $4.99.
01:06:23.660
Thank you very much. Tim Pool and, uh, Vivek Roshaswamy, I think is the way you say that correctly.
01:06:29.420
We're seriously discussing service guarantee citizenship thoughts. I mean, based, um, but also,
01:06:35.980
I don't know. So we're in this really weird scenario where, um, you know, normally I'm a huge fan.
01:06:42.540
Um, I, I grew up on military basis. I know the Prudentialists did too. My father was in the military.
01:06:48.140
Uh, most, many of my friends were service members have a deep respect for our, our lion class or
01:06:54.380
military class. Um, but we're also in a very weird place where, uh, our own military is now completely
01:07:02.460
woke and is a force kind of against the interests of the people of the United States. And so normally I
01:07:08.460
would say, yeah, that would be great because like, then, you know, uh, you know, we would have people
01:07:13.980
who participated in the defense of the state. We would have a more lion-esque, uh, you know, class
01:07:20.300
who would be, uh, you know, kind of filling that role. Uh, but at this point, I don't know, you know,
01:07:26.620
there, there's someone talking about how, oh, the, you know, this new generation is weak and we need a
01:07:30.460
draft so that everyone can, can kind of, uh, join the military and remember, you know, what it's like to,
01:07:35.980
to, to, to be a real man who serves the country. And I'm like, at this point, it feels like they'd
01:07:40.620
just be fighting for trans rights in Africa, right? Like, I don't, I don't know if that would
01:07:45.500
fix things, but, but I understand at least the, the, the impulse to the, uh, to the Heinlein, uh,
01:07:51.260
Heinlein starship troopers future. And, uh, there, there is some truth in that.
01:07:54.780
Yeah. I don't know how much of, uh, my values would be represented into the future progressive
01:08:01.580
recruiting ads of I'm doing my part of raising a pride flag somewhere in Uganda or Afghanistan.
01:08:09.180
I don't see the point in it. Uh, today's values of it. I mean, uh, everything that we've seen with,
01:08:15.260
with bureaucracy, whether it's in this country or say the United Kingdom, uh, that the civil service
01:08:20.380
will do everything in its hand to resist anything that moves rightward. And I would have no, uh,
01:08:25.740
desire to serve that. And my moral and religious teachings would tell me to resist that at all costs.
01:08:30.460
Yeah. Though I will say Heinlein, uh, very predictive in his, uh, uh, his, uh, idea that,
01:08:37.180
uh, democracy and the, uh, social engineers would destroy the civilization. So, uh, you know,
01:08:43.180
credit to, uh, Heinlein where it's due. Absolutely. All right, guys, I think we got through all of our
