What should you do in the case of criminals on the mean streets of Gotham City? Is it better to call an electrician or a car mechanic? Should you call a carpenter or a handyman? Do you need a mechanic or electrician to fix your broken light bulb or a broken car tire? What do you need to know about what to do in such a situation? And why should you pay someone else to do something you are good at?

00:00:00.440 What to do, I hear you ask. Yes, I will endeavor to respond to this question in this fine video.
00:00:06.860 I will try to share some valuable insights.
00:00:10.120 But first, a message from the sponsor of this video. I am sponsoring myself.
00:00:14.880 I encourage you all to subscribe to The Greatest Podcast, so that you can listen to my voice of harmony
00:00:22.240 when you're out on your morning walk, or your evening walk, or whenever else.
00:00:25.880 So, the podcast is my time to go a bit deeper and elaborate at length about various interesting topics.
00:00:34.000 So, do head over to thegoldenone.se on the podcast page, and then you can choose wherever you want to subscribe to it.
00:00:42.420 And this is also a great way to support my holy work.
00:00:44.760 And yeah, I assure you that the podcast, it's a bit more insightful than the videos,
00:00:49.280 because in the videos, of course, I need to be a bit more concise, but the podcast, I can delve deeper.
00:00:54.420 So, do check it out.
00:00:57.120 Now, on to the question at hand. What to do in any given situation?
00:01:01.620 And before responding to the particular question I got, which has to do with unsafety in Gotham City,
00:01:09.140 I will use an example.
00:01:10.960 So, if you have a house, and if you have any issue with electricity, what do you do?
00:01:16.020 Yes, you call an electrician, because he is a professional, because he has the tools and the competence to get the job done.
00:01:22.700 Yes, you should be able to change a light bulb by yourself, but for the more complicated stuff,
00:01:27.940 you probably want a professional.
00:01:30.240 You do want an electrician, someone who works with it every day, has done so for a long time.
00:01:35.040 He has the routines, he has the tools, he has the competence.
00:01:37.960 He has everything he needs to get the job done.
00:01:40.420 Same thing if we're talking about a car.
00:01:43.400 Yes, you should be able to change tires.
00:01:45.560 So, it's a biannual thing if you're in Sweden, or anywhere else where you have to change between winter and summer tires.
00:01:51.780 I've changed my own fair share of tires during my days.
00:01:54.560 But anything beyond that, you probably do want a mechanic to have a look at your car, should something happen.
00:02:00.840 It's not something that, you know, you need to know yourself, because the basis of a civilization...
00:02:06.920 So, in a good functioning society, you have different roles, you have different vocations,
00:02:11.160 you have different individuals doing different things.
00:02:13.840 They are specialized in a field.
00:02:16.460 They have a vocation, they're good at something,
00:02:18.240 because they like it and they have the capacity to do a good job out of it.
00:02:22.280 So, yes, you should be able to change a tire,
00:02:24.540 but anything beyond that, you probably want to find a car mechanic who can help you with your problems.
00:02:32.600 And you will pay him for his time, just as he pays the farmer for food,
00:02:37.300 and the farmer pays someone else to do something.
00:02:40.380 So, that is how a society works, that you pay others to do something that they are good at.
00:02:44.840 Now then, on to the main question at hand,
00:02:46.940 and this has to do with unsafety and miscreants on the mean streets of Gotham City.
00:02:53.720 Now, I'm going to paint with the broadest possible brush,
00:02:57.060 so take everything I say with a pinch of salt.
00:02:59.380 And if you are in good old America, especially in a place like Texas,
00:03:03.340 this probably doesn't apply to you as much as it does to anyone in Belgium or Sweden
00:03:08.880 or any of these more anarcho-tyrannical societies.
00:03:12.340 I know you have a better legislation for being a good man in Texas
00:03:15.400 than you do in, say, Belgium.
00:03:17.380 Speaking of which, perhaps you've already heard the case of Dries van Langenhuvud.
00:03:21.560 He might go to prison for having been part of a group chat
00:03:26.840 where one guy posted a meme.
00:03:29.960 I'm not joking.
00:03:30.960 This is how it is.
00:03:32.100 It's completely brutal stuff.
00:03:33.680 It's a complete joke of a country, Belgium. 0.99
00:03:36.320 It's one of the worst places on earth in terms of anarcho-tyranny.
00:03:41.500 So, you know, you can get, you can be, if you're not European,
00:03:46.440 you can get away with doing a lot of bad things.
00:03:49.520 Then you will get a slap on your wrist.
00:03:51.080 But if you're Dries van Langenhuvud, you might go to prison
00:03:53.680 despite not even having done anything yourself.
00:03:56.060 So anarcho-tyranny at its absolute worst.
00:03:59.100 Now, anyway, I got a question.
00:04:01.680 There was a sensitive young man, high testosterone,
00:04:05.060 strong trained martial arts as well.
00:04:08.200 He saw a group of miscreants acting obnoxiously in public,
00:04:12.800 you know, trashing things and acting overall in an aggressive manner.
00:04:17.580 And the locals, they quickly, you know, gauged the vibe
00:04:21.820 and they started moving away there.
00:04:23.620 And he wondered what to do in such a situation.
00:04:28.080 Should I engage them?
00:04:29.880 And he actually said that he had challenged these miscreants as well,
00:04:33.220 but they seemed to be hesitant when they were actually confronted.
00:04:36.600 But anyway, I get this question quite a lot.
00:04:38.940 When to step in, when to not step in.
00:04:41.160 So again, I'm painting with the broadest possible brush here.
00:04:44.640 So take it with a pinch of salt and you have to analyze it from your own situation.
00:04:49.240 We have different legislation depending on where you are.
00:04:52.540 My main advice, and I would probably have said something different were I 25,
00:04:56.500 I would probably have given something, a different response there.
00:05:00.140 But now I don't have anything to prove.
00:05:01.860 I don't need to, you know, be a macho man or anything like that.
00:05:05.800 I'm only concerned with winning.
00:05:08.220 I'm only concerned with achieving regime change.
00:05:10.820 So being, playing Batman on the street, it's not something that will, you know, lead us to victory.
00:05:18.020 Victory comes about as a result of us engaging in society, politics primarily.
00:05:24.900 So anyway, to respond to the question, do call the police whenever possible.
00:05:30.020 Whenever possible.
00:05:30.900 Because you are, as I've mentioned in a recent video, you're probably already taxed to death.
00:05:35.580 And some of the tax money, it goes to the police.
00:05:39.360 So the police, they are your employees, if you think of it like that.
00:05:42.900 They are a service that you can use because you pay for them.
00:05:45.900 So you might as well use them.
00:05:47.720 So an example from Sweden a few months ago.
00:05:50.780 There was a man, 50 years of age or so.
00:05:54.220 He saw an urban youth gang outside on the street, you know, being obnoxious.
00:06:00.000 And he went to tell them off.
00:06:01.500 Maybe he wanted to play tough in front of his wife or whatever it might have been.
00:06:04.720 You can guess how it ended up, the situation.
00:06:07.780 Yes, they beat him up.
00:06:09.480 Ten against one. 0.99
00:06:11.020 Cowards, as always. 1.00
00:06:12.340 As always, these individuals are absolute cowards. 1.00
00:06:15.640 They would never engage in any fair fight. 0.97
00:06:17.800 This is also something you can keep in mind, by the way.
00:06:20.100 Don't ever feel bad for calling the police on some of these miscreants.
00:06:23.940 Because they are absolutely not playing fair in the list.
00:06:26.900 And we have no obligation to play fair against them.
00:06:29.680 So use the police as a resource here.
00:06:31.420 But anyway, he went out to confront them himself.
00:06:35.720 Ten against one or whatever it might have been.
00:06:38.020 Instead, he should just have stayed at home.
00:06:40.640 Called the police.
00:06:41.420 Say, I am feeling threatened.
00:06:44.100 My security is feeling threatened.
00:06:45.680 Or whatever it might have been.
00:06:47.420 So do use the police whenever possible.
00:06:50.000 And this is not only about competence and capacity or anything like that.
00:06:53.680 It's also about the law.
00:06:55.440 Should this Swedish man have beaten up these ten miscreants, then he would probably have gone to prison.
00:07:03.520 Because he would have gone to a courtroom.
00:07:05.560 They would have, you know, reported him to the police for assault or whatever.
00:07:10.480 And then an older Swedish woman would have sat there in the courtroom and judged against him. 1.00
00:07:14.540 So a long prison sentence for him and, you know, money for the miscreants.
00:07:19.760 That's just how it goes.
00:07:21.000 I'm extremely sorry to say so.
00:07:22.640 But the legal system is very much geared against us as law-abiding citizens.
00:07:27.880 So that is perhaps the primary reason why you should call the police in these situations.
00:07:31.620 Because they have the law on their side.
00:07:34.180 You do not have the law on your side.
00:07:36.200 So whatever might happen, you will be in a bad situation.
00:07:39.880 Now, there are of course many situations where it's actually worth dying.
00:07:43.500 It's worth taking a prison sentence.
00:07:45.280 So if anyone is acting violently against your wife or children, yes, by all means, do be ready to lay down your life.
00:07:52.840 And be ready to take a prison sentence because it's better.
00:07:55.700 Because that is preferable to living with the shame of having, you know, stood passively by as someone acted aggressively against your children or wife.
00:08:05.340 So you have these situations where it's just a bad situation no matter how you look at it.
00:08:11.140 But yeah, always defend your loved ones no matter what happens.
00:08:14.860 Always defend them.
00:08:16.300 And also speaking of which, I encourage all men.
00:08:19.840 You're a brother, uncle, father, son, whatever it might be, husband.
00:08:23.840 You have a responsibility towards your loved ones to be as formidable as possible.
00:08:28.540 So do train martial arts.
00:08:30.400 Do become as much of a threat as possible.
00:08:33.580 Do take it seriously.
00:08:35.320 Go to the gym.
00:08:36.220 Be as formidable as possible.
00:08:38.160 Your loved ones, they depend on you to be that role.
00:08:42.940 Now, that being said, there's only so much you can do as an individual.
00:08:46.120 This is not solved by every one of us becoming a force of nature.
00:08:49.940 Because we still live under a system that is hostile towards us.
00:08:54.540 So we can't solve this.
00:08:56.000 We can't solve the main issue at hand by, you know, becoming strong individuals.
00:09:00.980 We need to be strong on a social level, on a political level.
00:09:05.260 So the solution is not individual.
00:09:07.140 It's political.
00:09:08.040 It's social.
00:09:08.920 It's about us getting into positions of power so we can actually change legislation.
00:09:13.240 So we can initiate a large-scale re-migration. 0.82
00:09:17.240 That is the solution.
00:09:18.600 Not for every one of us to become Batman.
00:09:20.320 I also like Batman.
00:09:22.860 Grew up watching Batman.
00:09:24.360 Got plenty of inspiration from it.
00:09:25.880 But it's not realistic to, you know, restore safety to our streets by vigilante action.
00:09:32.060 You will only get into legal trouble if you do it, by the way.
00:09:34.480 So do let the police do their job.
00:09:37.640 Now, that being said, you shouldn't count on the police to do their job.
00:09:41.260 Because they aren't super competent in all cases.
00:09:44.500 So you should also trust in your own abilities.
00:09:47.420 But if they can do their job, just as you would call a car mechanic to solve a situation
00:09:52.720 with your car, if you see a situation and you can call the police, do it.
00:09:56.420 Because they will not get into the same kind of trouble as you do.
00:09:59.240 Now, again, there are situations where you don't really have any option and you can probably
00:10:02.780 step in.
00:10:03.540 Now, I actually have an example from Sweden.
00:10:05.360 An old childhood friend of mine, shout out to Daniel.
00:10:08.140 Daniel, he shared a story about a year ago.
00:10:11.460 So there was a miscreant who was harassing a 10-year-old or so girl on public transportation.
00:10:17.320 And he confronted the guy and held him still.
00:10:20.340 Kept him in place until the police could come.
00:10:22.560 So someone else called the police.
00:10:24.400 Now, eventually, the miscreant managed to escape.
00:10:26.800 So he tore himself from the grasp of my old friend Daniel.
00:10:30.620 But, yeah, I sent him a good package of Jotunheim nutrition goodies, at least.
00:10:35.840 As a thank you for his bravery in that situation.
00:10:40.820 So that, in that particular situation, he was right to step in himself.
00:10:45.060 And they also called the police.
00:10:46.580 And he was in, he was within the law to, you know, hold the miscreant.
00:10:52.020 To hold him in place.
00:10:52.960 He couldn't have done much more because then he would probably have gotten into trouble.
00:10:57.520 So you have, again, this is why I'm saying that I'm painting with a very broad brush here.
00:11:01.440 It's that sometimes you can step in yourself.
00:11:03.980 So do read up what sort of laws do you have to abide by.
00:11:08.420 Where are you in the world?
00:11:10.060 Different legislations, no matter where you are.
00:11:12.960 So, to conclude, do get as formidable as possible.
00:11:16.460 The lives of your loved ones could depend on it.
00:11:19.640 But also, do let the police do their job.
00:11:23.020 Because they have the law primarily on their side.
00:11:26.680 And they also have the routines, they have colleagues, they have everything they need, hopefully, in order to get the job done.
00:11:33.180 That being said, you should never rely completely on the police in a deteriorating society.
00:11:37.480 But when you can, view the police as a resource that you can use for your advantage.
00:11:42.680 That's why they're there.
00:11:44.580 And I'm sure they're happy to do their job as well.
00:11:47.140 Then keep in mind also that the police, the average policeman out on the street,
00:11:51.360 he is probably not super happy with his superiors that say, you can't do this, you can't do that.
00:11:58.280 So, keep that in mind if you're disappointed in the police that it's not up to them, it's up to the individuals who are above them in a hierarchy.
00:12:09.580 So, that's, again, when I say that we need to get into these positions of powers.
00:12:14.320 And then we can get in good individuals who can say to the police that you're free to do your job as you probably do want it, do want to do it yourself.
00:12:23.280 So, restoring law and order.
00:12:25.200 So, anyway, big topic.
00:12:26.280 Again, I painted with a very broad brush and I'm sure you can find plenty of exceptions to my examples here and everything like that.
00:12:35.180 But, anyway, thanks for watching.
00:12:36.640 Do check out The Greatest Podcast where I have the time to elaborate more deeply on matters.
00:12:42.240 So, thanks for watching.
