00:06:45.960For your country to be a home, it has to mostly be people from your country living there.
00:06:52.740For a country to be a real nation, to have a real sense of identity, to have a real kinship
00:06:58.140and brotherhood that allows you to operate as a society, you have to have some stability.
00:07:03.660If your neighborhood is a quarter B&B rentals, then your neighborhood is not going to be a place where you have kids playing in the yard and everybody knows each other's names and they go to cookouts with each other and they all go to church together and they help each other out in times of need.
00:07:21.860No, it's going to be a bunch of people who are just transient, who don't give a crap about the houses that they're living in, maintaining anything.
00:07:29.880They don't care about the people next to them.
00:07:32.100They don't care about the community that they're currently residing in.
00:07:35.400You wouldn't have a real neighborhood.
00:07:37.860You'd just be basically a hotel area, which is what is happening, unfortunately, to many areas in the United States with Airbnb.
00:07:45.960But the wider point is, if you have that percentage of your population in any given moment inside the United States being foreign, then you're simply never going to establish yourselves as a real country.
00:08:02.280You're just a place for people to go and make money or steal money, leech money off of people and then send it back home or go home themselves.
00:09:18.280They know they're never going to be hunted down or taken out, deported, forced to leave.
00:09:25.200You have a lot of people who decide that they're just going to come here and then pretend like they're in danger in their own country when it's just not true.
00:09:42.960We have this insane belief that as soon as someone crosses into the United States, if they're on a visa, they're just going to have to turn around and go.
00:10:06.640That only occurs to people who, well, already kind of have a sense of law and order and rule of law and a first world mentality, which a lot of people coming from third world countries obviously do not have.
00:10:18.360They don't see the need to follow their rules.
00:10:20.540They don't see the need for law and order.
00:10:22.020They don't understand why they would be incumbent on them to remove themselves once they've reached the end of their visa.
00:10:28.780They're not going to turn themselves in unless some ICE agent pulls them out of wherever they're living.
00:11:42.900Those are the first people you should go to, right?
00:11:45.280I understand the legal strategy of basically securing a basis by which you should be acceptably deporting people and have a plan to where they're going.
00:11:55.980Obviously, we also know that just manpower wise, ICE was not large enough to affect the mass deportations that we needed previously.
00:12:05.840They have like a military size budget.
00:12:07.520And they are aggressively recruiting people.
00:12:10.880If you're a young guy who's been complaining about the inability to have a future, not being able to make a good job, good money, not being able to go out there and earn the kind of living that could help you afford to start a family, that kind of thing.
00:12:28.280Then ICE is there and, you know, it seems like a job worth doing as well, protecting our homeland and deporting people who should not be here, who might be threats to the Americans.
00:13:17.940Again, some of these people will just be tourists.
00:13:20.740There are others, you know, overseas still holding the visa, so they're not here.
00:13:24.300But there's a large, large, large contingent of people here who are competing for jobs, competing for housing, competing for education, competing for health care, taking all of these additional benefits that they get from being here.
00:13:39.280Many of them will abuse the visas, overstay.
00:13:43.800So we just don't need these people here.
00:13:45.500We don't need – why are there foreign students here on visas when American students are having trouble getting into college and affording college?
00:14:21.320I mean, personally, I think you should be raising these places to the ground.
00:14:24.220But if they're going to operate, then they should operate for the betterment of Americans.
00:14:30.680And that should be the most obvious goal in the world.
00:14:33.780So, you know, the fact that we're still handing out visas for people to take American jobs, to go to American universities when other – when American students can't get in, can't afford it, is just insane.
00:14:47.240We should obviously not be doing this.
00:14:49.620So, good on the Trump administration for, you know, addressing this issue.
00:14:54.420I'm very glad that they're saying they're going to be continuously reviewing all of these visas, you know, to make sure that the holders are not people who should not be here.
00:15:02.460But at the same time, we need to start talking about that number and getting that number down very clearly.
00:15:10.940Also, good news, you know, Secretary Rubio also announced today that the U.S. will no longer be issuing any work visas for commercial truckers.
00:15:23.320For commercial truckers, obviously, the incident in Florida where two, you know, drivers, I believe from India, were driving this truck and trying to do this insane U-turn, ended up killing three people, I believe, in that accident.
00:15:42.600The – you know, after that, they said, okay, we're done.
00:15:45.040There's no reason to be bringing foreigners in to drive trucks.
00:15:49.820I don't know, you know, for people who aren't aware of this, you know, the truck driving is one of the last, like, working-class jobs that's relatively decent paying and is accessible to, like, the average working-class, especially white guy in the United States.
00:16:09.680If you haven't gone to college, if that's out of reach, if some of these higher education options are out of reach and you still want to be able to make a decent living and afford a family, then truck driving is an option for you.
00:16:23.500That is, it's not a glamorous job, but it's honest work and it pays well.
00:16:28.400And there's a lot of guys who would just, you know, drive trucks for a living and do well even though they didn't get to go to college, this kind of stuff.
00:16:37.180And the fact that we are, A, bringing in foreigners to compete with them is already insane.
00:16:44.220Why would – why do we need to bring in foreigners to drive trucks?
00:16:48.480It's the last bastion of, like, easy or relatively easy to enter working-class, you know, blue-collar labor that pays well in the United States.
00:17:03.540And even probably a little easier than the trades because you don't need – you know, getting a commercial license, you know, takes some effort, but it's not – you don't need to spend years and years of apprenticing to kind of master that craft.
00:17:15.260So it's one of the few jobs that is still, like, well-paying and accessible for blue-collar workers.
00:17:23.160And the answer is, oh, well, then we need to give it to other people.
00:17:29.780I've had family who are long-haul truckers.
00:17:32.360Like, these are people who are making a living for their family in a respectable way.
00:17:37.060And there are plenty of people who need to have access to that.
00:17:40.500I'm sorry, but these companies don't just get to drive down wages with foreign workers because they don't want to keep paying a decent wage to Americans.
00:19:12.840And so the fact that these people are also, in addition to taking jobs that Americans absolutely want and need and driving down wages that Americans are desperate to earn,
00:19:23.440in addition to all of that, they're a threat, a threat to the United States and the lives of the people here.
00:19:28.360And so, once again, great move by the Trump administration.
00:19:31.800I'd like to see them more widely apply this.
00:19:34.880These are not the only jobs that Americans are being undercut by people with these work visas.
00:19:40.720Foreigners brought in to take these jobs and drive down these wages and buy up housing and fill your emergency rooms and fill your educational systems, right?
00:19:52.940Like, there are plenty of jobs that we could have far more candidates in America actually take if they didn't have this constant competition with the entire world.
00:20:02.960But I'm glad the Trump administration is at least taking these actions.
00:20:06.600And again, the simple fact that they told people, hey, there are 55 million visas out there, that's a shock enough.
00:20:15.280Like, just, you know, whatever action they're taking on it, good.
00:20:17.980But just the shock of the fact that there are that many people in the country illegally, or even legally, in addition to the ones that are here illegally, it blew people away, blew people's minds.
00:20:30.720So I think it's very important that the Trump administration took this action, but even more important that what this action uncovered was the fact that we have this absolute disaster of a visa system going on, that these numbers are just insane.
00:20:45.080All right, so the next one I wanted to talk about here real quick.
00:21:22.760So John Bolton received a nice little, you know, pre-dawn raid this morning or, you know, round-dawn raid this morning from the FBI.
00:21:34.240John Bolton, of course, famously was, has been very anti-Trump after working in the administration.
00:21:44.660A guy who really was in support of all the regime hackery towards Trump, was very key in attacking him at every area, was more than fine with the fact that Trump was raided, you know, Mar-a-Lago, that the president was, you know, arrested, had a mugshot.
00:22:04.780More than happy with the raids on people like Roger Stone and others that were conducted by the Biden administration, Obama administrations, just people who have been abusive towards Republicans in general.
00:22:19.380However, today he was raided by the Trump administration, and it's still early.
00:22:26.140We're still not sure exactly all the details, but Kash Patel was out there, director of the FBI, and he was saying, you know, FBI is doing its job.
00:22:36.660You know, he said, FBI agents on mission here, from the story on The Blaze, and from what we have heard, again, early order, so, you know, information is still coming out, but from what we've heard, John Bolton is being investigated because of his possible allegations of him leaking classified information, which, remember, that's what the Trump raid was supposed to be about.
00:23:05.840Remember, they told us that Trump had the codes for nukes just, like, sitting in his basement somewhere, right?
00:23:13.820So, you know, the fact that John Bolton is being raided for the same theoretical crime is very funny, very entertaining, and there's a lot of libs who are outraged.
00:23:27.020Oh, this is, oh, this is a revenge plot, and this is, you know, this is how fascism arrives, and, you know, this is the punishing of political enemies.
00:24:36.740You punch somebody in the face, they punch you back.
00:24:39.040And so John Bolton gets his house raided on allegations that he has been leaking classified information, including in a book that he wrote.
00:24:52.380I've been saying we've been getting all of these revelations from Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel about how the Obama administration coordinated with intelligence to undermine the Trump presidency,
00:25:06.160push the Russiagate hoax, fabricate everything.
00:25:09.920We've been told about all these different FBI agents who are violating norms and taking sides, being political.
00:25:17.560We've had all of these revelations about different actors, bad actors inside the Biden administration, but we've seen very little actual action.
00:25:33.040He could show up and nothing could happen.
00:25:34.880Remember, the FBI technically raided Joe Biden because he had some files in a garage somewhere, right?
00:25:41.620And they didn't, you know, they just walked in, basically said, hey, Mr. President, we're going to look around and take some of these boxes.
00:25:48.560So just because they went to John Bolton's house doesn't mean that charges are coming.
00:25:53.700But if they do come, now we're in a different ballpark, right?
00:25:58.640Now it's the Trump administration playing a very different game, a game they absolutely have to play.
00:26:04.000So I hope this is an indication, I'm hoping this is an indication, that ultimately we're going to see them widen this.
00:26:12.180We're going to see them widen this to people like Brennan and, you know, all these other ridiculous, you know, cronies that were involved in Russiagate and other violations.
00:26:26.140But you have to see this take place, right?
00:26:53.540And if John Bolton was involved in leaking classified information, and I have every confidence, honestly, that he's the kind of guy has that kind of arrogance, that level of arrogance to do exactly what he's been whining about Trump doing for years.
00:27:10.380If you do have evidence of that, that man needs to go to jail.
00:27:54.920You know, there's there's been some rough times for the Trump administration lately, but this today is a, you know, pat on the back.
00:28:01.820Attaboy stream from the Trump administration.
00:28:04.500So, you know, it's not everything we want for sure, but it is positive moves across the board.
00:28:11.720We're seeing positive moves on visas, positive moves on limiting who can come in to do jobs and be dangerous in the United States.
00:28:19.420Positive moves on rating those that violated the law and extract a political price from those who prosecuted Trump and others, other other Republicans and conservatives.
00:28:40.980I'm not I'm not going to be waxing eloquent on how amazing the Trump administration is just today, but these are all positive step steps and we should be giving credit where it's due and be encouraging good things when we see them.
00:28:54.740And these are all good things and they all need to continue.
00:29:12.520Want to see fewer visas, more more visas being rejected, more people being deported because they violated the terms of the visa or should no longer be in possession of the visa.
00:29:23.360I want to see more jobs where we limit the number of foreigners who are allowed to come in and take them from Americans.
00:29:29.140I want to see more officials who were traitors to Donald Trump, traitors to the United States who were working to sabotage elections and manipulate intelligence and harm normal patriotic Americans.
00:30:09.480I've immediately forgotten his name, but let me grab it real quick.
00:30:11.980Uh, there's a congressman who just issued a letter to, uh, President Bush or sorry, President Bush, uh, President, um, Trump just issued a, uh, letter to President Trump asking.
00:30:29.780Yes, uh, Congressman Riley Moore, uh, he, uh, issued a, a, uh, a letter to President Trump asking that Pat Buchanan be given the, uh, Presidential Medal of Freedom, which I think is a fantastic idea.
00:30:45.200I already, you know, did a piece, uh, I released a video on this channel about, uh, why I think Pat Buchanan deserves a, uh, statue.
00:30:54.260I think we should be building more statues.
00:30:58.980We should be honoring great men, uh, who are conservatives with, uh, statues.
00:31:04.600But at least we can get Buchanan a medal, right?
00:31:08.320He, the, the Presidential Medal of Freedom is the highest civilian award the president can give.
00:31:13.600And Pat Buchanan is a guy who has fought his entire life for this country.
00:31:18.320Uh, when everyone else told him he was crazy, when everyone else told him he was a bigot, when everyone's told him that he needed to shut up and get in line and follow, uh, you know, uh, follow, uh, what the Republican Party was doing.
00:31:32.020The fact that he was willing to stand up against those people and say, no, absolutely not.
00:31:37.380Uh, I will continue to fight for my people and my country and its well-being.
00:31:41.640And, uh, he, he was, you know, pushed into the wilderness for many years, despite getting almost everything right in his predictions, writing very important books and these things.
00:31:50.700And so the fact that, that Pat Buchanan could be honored with a Presidential Medal of Freedom, I think would be really great.
00:31:58.500I think we need to celebrate these people.
00:32:00.020Uh, and so, uh, I'm, I'm very supportive of, uh, of Congressman Riley Moore's, uh, decision to push this.
00:32:07.600And I hope that, uh, they actually respond, that the Trump administration does follow up on this, uh, because I think this is a very, very, very important, um, uh, thing to do.
00:32:20.060I think that it's the right thing to do.
00:32:21.440And if we don't honor our, our best soldiers, if we don't honor, um, leaders who were right, but were shoved to the side, uh, then we'll forget their wisdom.
00:32:30.380And I think we should absolutely, uh, do this with, uh, Pappy Cannon.
00:32:57.140And that your different tradition, background, heritage, uh, your, your religious values, these things, your language, they define the way you see the world.
00:33:07.860They define the way that you understand the world around you.
00:33:10.860And so when we're trying to interact with other people, we have to recognize that they often have a very different basis for how they have norms and expectations in society.
00:33:22.620And that, you know, as I said on the show, when I was with Tucker, the constitution and the American system were specifically designed for specific people, a people with a specific way of life.
00:33:34.780And if you're not from that tradition, if you're not familiar with those norms, if this isn't the heritage you grew up with, the history you grew up with, the faith you grew up with, the rationality, the epistemology that you grew up with, then you have a very different understanding of the world.
00:33:50.160It might be difficult for you to become part of the American system.
00:33:56.100There are people who can accept that way of life and join it after generations, their children's children's children can become part of that story and that legacy.
00:34:05.460But the people themselves give birth to the culture, not the other way around.
00:34:12.320And so it's really critical when you're looking at how to manage society, what should we bring in a bunch of people from across the world?
00:34:20.920Will a guy from England assimilate easier into the United States than someone from, you know, Madagascar?
00:34:27.460Is there any difference between somebody in, you know, in Southeast Asia and somebody in, you know, Finland when it comes from their ability to kind of integrate into the U.S.?
00:34:41.260These are important questions and ones that if you just assume everyone is the same and everyone thinks the same and everyone acts the same and everyone, you know, understands the world the same, then you could fall into the error of believing that everyone can just become American.
00:34:58.340Everyone is just a potential American waiting to raise their hand and give the Pledge of Allegiance and swear an oath to the United States and then become a U.S. citizen.
00:35:09.240When we talk about the way of knowing things, the way of understanding things, the way of being, we're talking things that are tied to a people, right?
00:35:20.820And so this video has been going around on the Internet.
00:35:23.520I'm going to play some of it and we'll talk about it as we go.
00:35:26.080But this is a young black woman from Africa discussing African philosophy.
00:35:32.640She's talking about, I guess, one of the premier African philosophers.
00:35:36.400I'm not super familiar with African philosophy, so, you know, I'm not going to pretend to be any kind of authority there.
00:35:42.520But to her, this philosopher is very important.
00:35:46.300And she says, wildly different understanding of time, just a radically different understanding of reality.
00:35:54.340So let me play some of this real quick.
00:35:56.440I told you that for many African societies, the concept of the future doesn't exist.
00:36:02.020And that instead of time moving forwards, time actually moves backwards.
00:38:25.080The implications of that are vast, right?
00:38:27.660They are almost too numerous to take time to go through.
00:38:33.360I mean, if you do not have a future, how do you understand planning for something?
00:38:38.220How do you understand a time preference, a lower time preference that would allow you to build civilization?
00:38:47.420How do you understand denying yourself today so that you can thrive tomorrow?
00:38:53.040Or that your children or your grandchildren can benefit from long, laboring work that you put in and planned for and denied yourself in the future?
00:40:46.440If you can kind of have a short idea of the future, like the immediate future, because it's about to be experienced.
00:40:52.720But the idea of a long-term future that you might never experience or will only be experienced in a decade or something simply does not exist.
00:42:10.540How do you plan to do shipping across, you know, half the globe?
00:42:14.920How do you land planes if you don't understand the future, if you can't plan because you don't understand time that has not been directly experienced?
00:42:26.560And again, Dugan has been talking about this.
00:42:29.840You know, this is, and you know, if you've read Heidegger or any of these, you understand, you know, the understanding that you have to experience a lot of this stuff.
00:42:38.880And, you know, the direct experience is a critical part of understanding.
00:42:42.800And so when I found out my friend got a great deal on a wool coat from Winners, I started wondering, is every fabulous item I see from Winners?
00:42:53.560Like that woman over there with the designer jeans.
00:43:16.080This is, this has been, this is known and talked about, but most people just assume that everybody experiences time in exactly the same way.
00:43:24.820And then, and this is why, again, when I was on Tucker, I said, you know, the, it's critical to understand the phrase self-evident truths means for people inside your tradition, inside your society, inside your sphere of knowledge.
00:43:40.840People who share your faith, your heritage, your history, your language.
00:43:46.080When we talk about self-evident truths, we mean things that are self-evident to us as a people.
00:43:52.420Because what's self-evident to you, there is a future, we need to plan for it, might be completely not evident at all to someone who's a preeminent African philosopher.
00:44:07.600Like it might not even occur in the slightest that that is self-evident because it is not self-evident for them.
00:47:26.600Because those things all require really abstract understandings of time.
00:47:31.540I don't know, you know, what season, how long the seasons are going to be for the next six months.
00:47:39.740But I need to make sure that this, you know, this shipment is going to get somewhere in six months.
00:47:46.040And so whether or not the seasons pass or not, that ship still needs to arrive.
00:47:51.260Because if the ship doesn't arrive where it needs to then, it can't pick up the next thing and move to the next port.
00:47:56.760And so the planning out of time in an abstract and measurable manner is pretty critical to the Western understanding.
00:48:05.080To do any of the trade or any of the capital activities that we do, you need to have this more rigid understanding of time.
00:48:14.100So in a way, our system might only be functional for people who understand time that way.
00:48:20.860The entire global trade system might be completely unmanageable for people who do not have that conception of time.
00:48:29.760Who cannot abstract time out into calculable units that are reliable.
00:48:35.080And in her understanding and in the African understanding of this philosopher, that is not how time works.
00:48:42.240And so people who do not have a word to describe this phenomenon are going to have a very, very hard time working inside our system, adopting our customs.
00:48:55.360And they're going to lose out in the larger global economic picture, the geopolitical picture.
00:49:03.620And this is what a lot of people actually complain about on the left, right?
00:49:08.140They say, well, your understanding is very Western and imperialistic or whatever.
00:49:12.420And you can take the imperialism to the side for a moment, but it is very Western.
00:49:18.620It is racist in the, to the extent that it favors people of European descent who understand the world in this way.
00:49:28.020But that's also why it works because that's how the understanding of time allows you to behave.
00:49:36.220And so if you have this civilizational understanding of how time works, then you will structure your society in a radically different way than people from Africa.
00:49:46.640And maybe, you know, that's good for the African civilization.
00:49:51.160I mean, it's the way they want to live, but it will fall behind people who have a different conception of reality, a different understanding of time.
00:49:59.460Again, you don't have to hate people or, you know, even, you know, make fun of people or something because they have this different understanding.
00:50:05.140But you definitely need to factor that in when you're deciding who should be in your country and whether or not your system can be applied to other people.
00:50:13.860This is in contrast to the Western view towards time, where time is a commodity, something that can be spent, saved, wasted, or lost.
00:50:21.120And according to Mbiti, this is why if foreigners come to Africa and they see people sitting under a tree, they would remark that, okay, why are these people wasting so much time?
00:50:30.520But in African thought, that's sitting under a tree, it's not wasting time, it's either waiting for time or producing time.
00:50:40.520So if you're sitting around, you're not wasting time, you're producing time, you're waiting for time.
00:50:49.220So the idea that time is a commodity, that time is something that is precious, that time is something that you should allocate thoughtfully to activities that better you or society,
00:50:59.700this does not exist, that there is no understanding that time is a limited and finite thing to be allocated properly.
00:51:16.020That's the way that they want to live, the way that they have lived their lives, the understanding their community has.
00:51:21.320But it's just not compatible with the Western understanding of how time works.
00:51:26.440This is why you tend to judge people who act that way as lazy in the West, mainly because a lot of us have this understanding that, like, no, we should be using our time productively.
00:51:37.940Time is something that is precious, that is limited, that can be allocated to good and bad ends.
00:51:44.580And that if you are just sitting around not using your time at all, then you end up creating a worse society.
00:51:53.380Now, to be clear, there's an unhealthy version of this, right?
00:51:55.920So you might say, oh, well, that African understanding of time is very bad because it creates lazy people.
00:52:02.940But, of course, there is famously people talking about the Protestant work ethic and Americans working too hard.
00:52:10.060There is probably a level of that where Americans burn themselves out.
00:52:13.760Now, that's why we build great things, right?
00:52:16.220We build amazing things because we work so hard and because we have a vision of the future.
00:52:36.360And if you're doing that work for greatness, that's awesome.
00:52:39.040But if you're just channeling it into some kind of corporation or some kind of complete waste job that doesn't do anything for people who hate you or aren't producing anything of value, well, I mean, it's admirable that you're working in a way, but you're also just kind of wasting all that for nothing.
00:52:55.760So there are downsides to this, but I want to live the Western way of life.
00:55:10.200As she says, this is all, you know, the idea of technological progress and, you know, science and ambition and achievement.
00:55:18.200These things are all tied to Western understandings of how time works.
00:55:22.060And if you're someone who has only ever experienced other people with this grasp of time, then you'll just assume that this is how the entire world sees it.
00:55:56.880When you're trying to grasp, should we have immigration?
00:56:00.540Should people with this belief flood the UK or the United States?
00:56:06.660Are they compatible with those civilizations when they don't understand the, like, just metaphysics that are inherent in our understanding of the world?
00:56:18.880So, of course, Mbiti wrote this from a theological point of view because he was trying to explain the nature of African religion.
00:56:25.380But my main takeaway from the parts of the book that I've read...
00:56:28.140So important here, this is based in African religion.
00:56:32.220So it's the religion that is informing them this attempt to philosophize, right?
01:02:57.280Trump is the first president, GOP president my entire life, to take real serious action on the border.
01:03:04.580And so, yeah, you should really hold all of these people accountable.
01:03:09.680I doubt we'll get justice for every Republican and Democrat leader that was involved.
01:03:14.580But, yeah, they should not be let off the hook for this.
01:03:17.020Based Hillbilly says, $10,000 a year to hire an immigrant, 40% income tax for migrants, no citizenship unless they're married to an American for 20 years, 40% remittance tax.
01:03:31.500So, yeah, this is like a basic barrier, right?
01:03:34.320You need to pay up front if you're a company to hire a migrant to ensure that there's an additional fee so we know you're not just going to get them for cheap labor.
01:03:43.700We need a high income tax on the people who are here, if you have them at all, absolutely no citizenship.
01:03:51.360Yeah, marriage for 20 years, you know, 40% remittance tax, all seems pretty reasonable.
01:03:56.620I don't know if I'd have to think about the different numbers exactly and how I'd want to apply it.
01:04:00.720But, yeah, these are all perfectly reasonable barriers to put between employers and immigrants so that, you know, if they're hiring people, they're absolutely doing it because they need them.
01:04:14.620And those people are not getting citizenship just because they're here and they are paying a large amount of taxes.
01:06:18.700I believe you should absolutely convert to Christianity and follow the one and only Savior, Jesus Christ.
01:06:24.580There is only one God, and you should believe in him.
01:06:27.900That said, I am glad that you like what we're doing here, and I hope that you are drawn to the Christian faith.
01:06:35.540Tiny Stupid Demon says, but these are just equally valid indigenous ways of knowing.
01:06:41.240Maybe none of us really have a future.
01:06:43.640Perhaps time comes from somewhere else.
01:06:46.920Martin Heidegger and Nick Land, call your office.
01:06:50.000Yeah, well, again, I think that this is, I think this understanding of time has issues.
01:06:57.200But my main point is just, I don't want to, I don't want looking at people's, the way that they understand their reality, to be something that we are hostile about.
01:07:08.820Because, again, if you look at the works of someone like Spangler, you know, he says this.
01:07:12.360He says, every civilization, they experience math differently.
01:07:15.640They experience language differently, art.
01:07:18.260All of these things are so drastically different.
01:07:20.240It's very difficult for civilizations to understand each other.
01:07:23.220So this understanding of the world has been around for a very long time.
01:07:26.080And, you know, there are great civilizations that understood things differently.
01:07:30.580So, you know, he goes in, you know, Spangler goes into why Greek civilizations could never have developed the number zero, right?
01:07:39.660They just didn't have that understanding to come up with the concept of zero.
01:07:43.460It doesn't mean they didn't do great things.
01:07:45.460It didn't mean they did amazing things.
01:07:47.240It doesn't mean they aren't a great culture worthy of respect.
01:07:49.560But they were just never going to understand the concept of zero.
01:07:52.140They were never going to develop that inside their culture.
01:07:54.480Most people would still look at the ancient Greeks and say, that's an amazing civilization.
01:08:17.260The problem is when we demand everyone has exactly the same worldview, exactly the same understanding, and we are willing to crush the differences between peoples in order to obtain that.
01:08:29.820Mostly Peaceful Merch says, they can experience things differently in their own country.
01:08:33.880America is for people that plan for things like breakfast.
01:09:02.600I need to make sure that I can go to meetings and plan things.
01:09:06.400So I need people who understand time the way I understand time.
01:09:09.600It doesn't mean I need to hate people who don't.
01:09:11.360But if you're wondering why you're having a very difficult time coordinating with people of other cultures, well, this is why.
01:09:18.720Because there's fundamental differences you cannot account for if you don't grasp that even the nature of time can be up for question with other peoples.
01:09:30.000We're going to go ahead and wrap this up.
