00:00:30.560 always and everywhere power seeks to expand its reach and centralize control this expansion of

00:00:36.320 power has never been arrested by abstract principle or words on paper it's only ever checked by the

00:00:41.840 existence of opposing powers those opposing powers must have deep roots and independent resilience

00:00:48.000 and the ability to demand loyalty they must project a sphere of influence in areas that are difficult

00:00:53.920 for the state to replicate providing a form of sovereignty that can resist the power of the

00:00:58.480 government without having to engage in physical conflict communities with robust histories and

00:01:04.560 traditions provide these opposing spheres of sovereignty the religion and folkways of these

00:01:09.760 communities are established by generation after generation practicing them as if they are simply

00:01:15.520 part of the rhythm of life the beliefs are transcendent deriving authority from forces

00:01:21.120 that no earthly power can reproduce these communities build institutions to perpetuate their way of life

00:01:27.920 and care for the well-being of their members churches schools libraries civic organizations

00:01:34.000 unions and fraternal organizations pass down the values of that community preserve its culture

00:01:40.560 and aid members who require assistance robust community creates an opposing sphere of sovereignty

00:01:47.120 because it can make competing demands on its members the organizations inside the community provide

00:01:53.120 critical services that the state cannot and provide a level of emotional and spiritual well-being

00:01:58.800 that the state can't compete with it also requires a set of behaviors that are particular to the community

00:02:04.800 if the members intend to stay in good standing behaviors that the state can't easily alter

00:02:10.960 the loyalty of the members is necessarily split between the community and the government which

00:02:16.240 prevents the state from expanding its reach the way of life in the community is deeply ingrained

00:02:21.920 through hundreds if not thousands of years of custom and habit and the state is required to respect

00:02:27.120 that if it doesn't want to face serious resistance the inhabitants of virtuous and well-organized

00:02:33.600 communities that have existed over hundreds of years tend to accumulate wealth over time that's a

00:02:39.760 benefit of being established over generations and maintaining virtuous habits they have the extra

00:02:45.760 capital and leisure necessary to build robust institutions which can provide critical services

00:02:51.200 and act as a safety net for their members these are the kulaks the middle class that have moved 0.97

00:02:57.200 on from base subsistence to independence now this isn't the hyper individualism that is

00:03:02.960 often called self-reliance in the modern world but a form of community reliance that allows its members

00:03:09.200 stability those who are part of the community don't have to live in fear of their day-to-day needs

00:03:14.480 being met they're not reliant on government services when things go wrong and so their loyalty belongs

00:03:20.560 to the community first that's why the government needs to destroy them wait i didn't get charged for my 0.83

00:03:28.960 donut it was free with this tim's rewards points i think i just stole it i'm a donut stealer

00:03:35.120 earn points so fast it'll seem too good to be true plus join tim's rewards today and get enough points

00:03:41.360 for a free donut drink or tim bits with 800 points after registration activation and first purchase of

00:03:46.640 a dollar or more see the tim's app for details at participating restaurants in canada for a limited time

00:03:50.640 in his book on power the political theorist bertrand de juvenal describes the classic strategy of high

00:04:00.000 and low versus the middle the ruling class seeks to expand and centralize its power but the middle

00:04:05.520 class stands in the way the lower classes rarely pose a threat because they're dependent and disorganized 1.00

00:04:12.080 they don't have the excess capital or leisure time necessary to marshal political opposition

00:04:16.720 it's the middle class with their private property institutions and wealth who can adhere to their

00:04:23.120 long-standing traditions while withstanding pressure from the state in order to gain more power the

00:04:28.480 ruling class must find a way to dissolve all opposing spheres of sovereignty including those created by

00:04:34.560 robust middle-class communities to achieve this goal the ruling class allies with lower dependent

00:04:41.600 classes that can be used to unseat the entrenched kulaks sometimes it uses the domestic underclass 0.97

00:04:48.320 but this is less than ideal because they also tend to possess the same folkways and traditions as the

00:04:54.000 middle class you really need to have a huge culture gap between the lower and middle classes a lot of class

00:05:00.400 envy ultimately for this to work now bringing in a foreign underclass that's far more reliable because 0.98

00:05:07.840 they have zero connection to the land or its traditions and are more willing to turn against

00:05:13.360 those that are already residing there mass immigration provides cheap labor which tends to

00:05:19.280 benefit the upper class that can afford nannies and gardeners but also provides a large body of new voters

00:05:26.160 to whom promises can be made the diversity of the immigrant lower class means it doesn't have a cohesive 1.00

00:05:33.520 culture or a set of traditions that can resist the will of the state they don't have the roots necessary

00:05:39.360 to build resilient institutions that can help those in need they don't have the leisure or will to

00:05:45.040 organize effective political opposition the lower immigrant class is dependent on the ruling class 0.98

00:05:51.200 for their ability to enter the country get work achieve civil rights and obtain access to the franchise

00:05:57.600 they often don't speak the language and tend to require some level of state welfare

00:06:01.680 it's not just that the immigrant class is not motivated to oppose the expansion of the state

00:06:06.640 they actually require its growth in order to succeed in order to provide these services to its new

00:06:13.440 political allies the ruling class pillages the middle class the kulaks are blamed for the inequality 1.00

00:06:19.840 that now exists within society and are guilted or eventually compelled into giving up some of what they

00:06:25.600 have built in order to provide for the immigrant class this transfer of wealth from the middle class to the 0.96

00:06:31.520 new dependent class helps the rulers secure power over the immigrants but very importantly it also 0.99

00:06:37.600 helps to weaken the kulaks who are a natural barrier to the expansion of state power as they become poorer 1.00

00:06:44.400 the kulaks lose the private property and leisure time that allowed them to build resilient institutions 0.73

00:06:50.720 their day-to-day existence becomes more unstable and they're more likely to end up dependent on state services

00:06:57.360 mass immigration also erodes the well-established culture which proved to be a barrier to power 1.00

00:07:03.920 people in a community with deeply held traditions limit what the government can command but diverse

00:07:09.440 groups with no unified culture have no such resistance as the native communities are forced to regularly

00:07:16.480 interact with the new arrivals their shared identity begins to erode it's considered taboo to separate

00:07:22.560 yourself from the newcomers or to maintain a separate culture the community institutions that

00:07:27.760 once transmitted culture and helped those in need start to close the charities are exploited the common

00:07:34.240 areas are defiled and those who maintain them see no reason to continue the effort for people they

00:07:39.520 don't really recognize and with whom they share very little in common the ruling class makes it first taboo

00:07:46.000 and then illegal for the communities to relocate and reform anyone who attempts to retreat from the

00:07:51.360 consequences of mass immigration and reconstitute their old way of life becomes an anathema the kulaks 1.00

00:07:57.840 are no longer allowed to reside in communities where they can live in the virtuous patterns of their

00:08:02.640 ancestors or transmit those traditions through institutions and the virtue quickly fades the opposing

00:08:09.680 spheres of sovereignty are destroyed and everyone becomes a rootless dependent of a state that now has a blank

00:08:15.760 check to expand its power this is why mass immigration becomes a priority for almost

00:08:21.520 every western liberal democracy it's a strategy that not only removes the barriers to expanding state power but

00:08:28.400 actually creates a patronage machine that demands and fuels the expansion if we want an elite class that's 1.00

00:08:35.280 responsive to the needs of the population they govern we must first cut off their access to outside 1.00

00:08:41.360 populations that they can use to undermine the natives the middle class and its natural spheres of 1.00

00:08:46.720 opposing sovereignty must be restored then and only then can we hope to cage the leviathan our ruling 1.00
