The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters #1141

00:00:00.000 Hello and welcome to the podcast of Lotus Eaters episode 1141. I'm your host Harry, joined today

00:00:06.640 by Carl and returning guest, our friend, Roar Egg Nationalist, Charles. How are you doing?

00:00:12.880 I'm very well. It's a pleasure, as always.

00:00:14.800 Wonderful. And today we're going to be talking about the new attacks against Turkish barbershops

00:00:20.040 by the police. Can you believe it? They're coming for your barbershops, ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:24.340 Government-enforced anti-white racism. Is that alongside the government-enforced homosexuality? 0.99

00:00:30.000 Yeah, it's part and parcel of it.

00:00:31.520 Okay, that makes a lot of sense. Thank God we're not Hitler. And they don't know what

00:00:36.600 to do about our lost boys. Remember, because if we didn't do these things, then we'd be

00:00:41.780 Hitler. 0.57

00:00:42.280 Oh, I see, right.

00:00:43.060 You see what I mean there?

00:00:44.600 Good point, yeah, I didn't even think about that.

00:00:45.900 Yeah, yeah. Obviously, if you don't have those things, then you're a fascist. And they don't

00:00:51.240 know what to do about our lost boys. I don't know what that's about.

00:00:54.140 Well, they're really struggling with what the plan is for young men who are not happy

00:00:59.060 with the current state of affairs. And they don't have one.

00:01:01.900 Well, you've got the right guest for that on today, then, don't we?

00:01:04.340 Well, yeah.

00:01:05.440 All right, anything else we should talk about? Oh, there's Lad's Hour. What are we actually

00:01:08.800 doing in Lad's Hour?

00:01:09.960 Dan, I don't know.

00:01:11.560 Oh, yeah, old adverts.

00:01:12.740 Something like that, but all I could hear is him cackling from the corner of the room.

00:01:16.340 Yeah, I realised. Dan's got a real Mr. Krabs laugh.

00:01:20.000 I don't know what that means.

00:01:21.740 Mr. Krabs from SpongeBob.

00:01:23.320 I'm too old for that.

00:01:24.280 You don't show your kids, don't you? Of course you don't. Of course you don't show them.

00:01:28.080 I guess not. No, I don't learn what's up on TV.

00:01:30.240 Anyway, there'll be Lad's Hour where you get to... We all get to learn why Dan's been laughing

00:01:34.340 so much to himself. So tune into that if you've got a subscription on the website. Let's get

00:01:38.680 into it, then. So, as we all know, English Town's not doing great. Really, really not doing

00:01:45.260 great right now. I had the misfortune of going into my hometown the other day, a lovely place

00:01:50.880 in Cheshire called Crewe, and was walking around for a little bit, and came across this

00:01:56.060 incredible site. The Cheshire Halal Meat Centre. I looked into it, people were telling me in

00:02:05.540 the replies, last time it was inspected by a food inspector, zero star hygiene rating.

00:02:11.380 Oh, really? Interesting they didn't shut it down, because that, like I covered the other

00:02:14.660 day, that's what happened with the Kenya butchers on the street.

00:02:17.420 Yes, I've got your video that you posted on your channel, and we're going to take a quick

00:02:20.920 look at that in a moment. But this is a very frequent sight that you can see all across

00:02:26.080 towns in England, which have been completely abandoned to foreign businesses. Foreign businesses

00:02:31.360 that clearly do not adhere to any kind of standards that you or I would appreciate, for one being

00:02:36.820 halal in the first place, which is a brutal form of slaughter, which I do not approve of. 0.91

00:02:41.960 But look at the buildings on the other side, just shut down.

00:02:44.600 Yeah. Shut down. There's lots of shops that are shut down. You've got this patchwork road

00:02:49.500 with a little bit of cobblestone just peeking out to remind you that there used to once

00:02:54.280 be a culture here. You've got Cheshire Food Store to the left of it, which sells African

00:02:59.760 food, obviously. And back in the day, this street here, I can say from experience, used

00:03:05.040 to have nice businesses down there. It used to be a place where there was lots of nightclubs,

00:03:09.460 lots of venues where you could go and play music. And slowly but surely, they all shut

00:03:14.940 down to be replaced by either nothing or foreign businesses. This is something that you can observe

00:03:22.620 in lots of towns across the country that have been completely abandoned, including Swindon.

00:03:28.240 Yeah.

00:03:28.800 And you did this video the other day where you were going around Swindon, kind of doing the

00:03:33.260 Doom Tour.

00:03:33.940 Unfortunately, yes. It was just one of those... Because I've been here for 25 years, and I've

00:03:38.300 spent a lot of time in Swindon. And it used to be really nice. I know that people like

00:03:42.940 Swindon. It's like, look, I'm not saying that it was like, you know, Kensington Gardens or

00:03:47.340 anything. But like, it was just very homely, relaxed. It was personable. There were lots of

00:03:54.120 actual things that you'd want to go to. Like this, where this street is, this was all massive

00:03:59.560 nightclubs. And so every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, this was just heaving. Like

00:04:03.800 being thousands of people down the streets. And the whole thing was just a lot nicer than

00:04:08.200 it is now. And I think the same thing that has happened to Cheshire has happened to Swindon,

00:04:13.000 which is essentially when the native population gets diversified, gets the foreign immigrants

00:04:20.460 landed in the town centre, well, they just move away. And that means that there's not the

00:04:24.560 foot traffic in the towns to support the old businesses of there.

00:04:29.320 Well, I think there's a parallel that you can draw with Cheshire and Wiltshire as well,

00:04:34.760 because Crewe is quite like Swindon, in that it's the one really bad place in a county that

00:04:41.720 otherwise is still very, very nice. Wiltshire, that's what Swindon is for us. But we have

00:04:48.160 lost so much foot traffic that the council wasted who knows how much money building an enormous

00:04:54.220 multi-storey car park over the past few years, which is so useless that it's shut on Sundays.

00:04:59.680 So the thing that really makes me think this is definitely what it is, is in Old Town in

00:05:06.480 Swindon, most of the businesses there have been there for about 20 plus years. Like I remember the

00:05:11.820 businesses at the north end of Swindon being the same businesses when I met my wife up there,

00:05:17.500 you know, when we first started going out. And so the fact that everything has changed so

00:05:21.600 rapidly down here, but North Swindon, which is the Old Town, is still mostly English. You see the

00:05:27.940 same shops still subsist. So I'm absolutely certain it's about population replacement that it's causing

00:05:33.720 this.

00:05:34.540 Well, I was going to say, I mean, in my neck of the woods in the West Country,

00:05:39.020 it's very noticeable in, you know, small market towns, places like, for instance, Yeovil, right?

00:05:45.800 So Yeovil is an interesting place, you know, Yeovil, that area of Somerset in the 19th century,

00:05:52.820 then I think something like 75% of all the leather gloves in the world were made in and

00:05:58.300 around Yeovil, right? So it was like a boomtown for leather goods. And the leather industry in

00:06:04.640 Yeovil kind of limped on for a long time until, basically until the financial crisis, 2008. I mean,

00:06:10.660 for me, my observations, I would say that it's 2008 that really started this, like these,

00:06:16.400 these high streets have never recovered from the financial crisis. So, you know, once upon a time,

00:06:20.980 Yeovil had a Starbucks, and there was a Topshop. And, you know, I mean, they're not, they're not high

00:06:26.260 end shops, but you know, they're, they're something, they're pretty good. You know, rising affluence,

00:06:32.080 you can see that it's, you know, it's associated with that. But then they're, they're empty now. I mean,

00:06:37.620 the premises are all empty. In fact, there are shops in Yeovil that closed down during the pandemic,

00:06:44.500 and they've still got the social restriction boards up and the markings on the floor, you know,

00:06:50.200 the two meter markings. So, I mean, it's, it's, it's multiple things, I think it's definitely

00:06:55.720 prolonged economic hardship. But also, of course,

00:07:00.360 Well, what the prolonged economic hardship has enabled is for there to be a wealth of open

00:07:06.000 properties that aren't occupied by anybody for foreign businesses to come into. And the funny

00:07:12.320 thing about diversified foreign businesses is that they lead to an incredible lack of diversity

00:07:17.820 in businesses that open in your, on your high street, as seen in this Welsh town, which is Porth,

00:07:26.000 which has a population of about 6,000 people, and 13 barbershops, all within a 0.3 mile radius,

00:07:33.620 or six minute walk from one another. And what this article is talking about in that there's

00:07:38.400 already 13 here, there's another one attempting to open. And people in the local area are complaining

00:07:44.440 to the planning permission, people saying that you should not allow this application through,

00:07:48.740 because we've already got enough barbershops. Trust us, 13 is more than enough for 6,000 people.

00:07:54.360 We're not getting multiple haircuts every single day. I think one or two would do us fine.

00:07:59.700 It's interesting though, isn't it? You think, so that's what one, let's say roughly one barbershop

00:08:05.060 for every 600 people in that town, right? I bet there's not one doctor for every 600 people in

00:08:10.060 the town. Oh no, no. Under Tony Blair, there'd be even less. Yeah. So it's just, I mean, it's crazy,

00:08:16.860 which, which begs the question actually about the economics of these shops. I mean,

00:08:21.840 Well, they do a lot of grooming, don't they?

00:08:23.180 Yeah. Well, yeah, yeah. But, but you know, like, I mean, people get a lot of traffic in them.

00:08:29.080 Yeah, they do. And there's, yeah, I mean, I've seen people talking about how the police know that

00:08:34.120 these places are fronts for organized crime, in particular for drug trafficking, for money

00:08:38.840 laundering, all that kind of stuff. Well, it does ask the, it does raise the question in a lot of

00:08:44.240 these towns, like Crewe, like Swindon, like many struggling towns where economic hardships have

00:08:50.120 completely wiped out local businesses in particular. Um, how is it that these businesses,

00:08:55.360 which are already oversaturated, are able to make enough money to pay the rent each month,

00:08:59.780 to pay the electric bills each month? Where are they getting this money from? Because most of the

00:09:04.160 time you walk past, they've not got that many customers in them. And there's only so many times

00:09:08.240 you need a haircut every single month, uh, the, to justify going into them. So that does raise the

00:09:13.960 question. Alongside that, you've got other businesses that tend to pop up because in this very

00:09:17.860 article, it says a recent survey of Porth's town center conducted in 2024 by the chamber of trade

00:09:23.320 found that respondents already noted an overabundance of businesses such as barbershops,

00:09:29.440 beauty parlors, and fast food takeaways. Beauty parlors is one that I always notice. You get lots

00:09:34.520 of nail salons open up around the place. You also get phone shops and vape shops. All of these

00:09:40.840 businesses tend to be run by foreigners, and it makes it very suspect that you never see 1.00

00:09:45.900 anybody really using them. But they always open. They're always opening. There's always

00:09:51.520 more opening. Here's the Swindon Advertiser, uh, just last month, I believe. Yeah, AU Cuts,

00:09:58.260 which I walked past on my lunch break today, uh, opened in March 29th by two brothers who were

00:10:04.360 inspired to do so by their father, you know.

00:10:07.540 Where did they get the money to set this up?

00:10:09.780 I don't know. They're both like 21, 22 years old.

00:10:13.800 Yeah, so it costs about 10 grand to set up a business.

00:10:16.540 I suppose their dad must have given them the money.

00:10:18.420 He must have fronted the money for them. Uh, well, and again, many, I'm sure, are legitimate

00:10:26.240 businesses. But lots of them aren't. There's this one, uh, this, this might be a legitimate

00:10:32.900 business. Barber opened Swindon shop after arriving, Alon's hair studio, after arriving in

00:10:37.940 the UK with nothing. Now he worked 10 years to be able to open up his shop and raise the money.

00:10:43.040 So there's an explanation. But then you get these ones where immigrants worked at Guy's 0.96

00:10:46.940 barbershop in Swindon illegally. This is a, this is an article from last year. And if you wonder how

00:10:52.260 many of these places save money to pay the bills each month, it's because they're probably not

00:10:56.820 paying their staff members very much. Who knows if the staff are even trained to cut hair in the

00:11:02.340 first place? Because this one, the court heard that the barbershop owner, Guy Awazi, uh, made false

00:11:07.980 Spanish identity cards for two, uh, for two siblings that he was employing who were illegally in the

00:11:13.120 country in the first place. And then there's just more, uh, more situations like this. Manchester

00:11:18.520 Road, which, uh, we've got a short video coming out soon of Josh walking down Manchester Road and

00:11:23.840 just, um, pointing at things. Noticing things. Noticing things. Manchester Road, or Little Pakistan,

00:11:30.260 as I like to call it. Uh, they had a barber shut down after there were drugs seized in a raid.

00:11:35.260 Officers from Central Swindon, uh, South Neighbourhood Policing Team, along with Police Dog Bracken,

00:11:40.940 who I'm sure is a very good boy, carried out two simultaneous raids at A-Style Barbers down

00:11:46.080 Manchester Road. The raids were carried out in January in relation to money laundering,

00:11:50.240 drug supply, and organised crime, where a significant quantity of drugs, cash, and luxury items were

00:11:55.860 seized. I'm taking your surprise. I know. Big shock, right? So, for a

00:12:00.240 long time, the police had known about these, there'd been some reports from the Daily Mail

00:12:05.440 talking about these, and, uh, the NCA and other organisations said,

00:12:10.460 yes, we know that a lot, if not most, of these businesses are fronts for organised crime.

00:12:16.200 But there hadn't been anything on the large scale, on a greater scale, done about them.

00:12:21.120 You'd get these individual little raids here and there in local communities, but there was

00:12:25.400 no organised effort to try and stamp down on them. Under the Tories. But now Labour's in.

00:12:32.940 Boom. Can you believe it? Here's Starmer's Labour government. Under them, all of a sudden,

00:12:40.860 you get a big effort to try and crack down on this, and this was on the front page of the BBC News this

00:12:48.520 morning. You get reports on it, where I will say as well, they do not shy away from the ethnicity of

00:12:55.440 the people who are running these shops, especially the barbershops as well. Multiple references in

00:13:01.340 this one article to most of these being run by Kurds. Not Turks, even if they say they're Turkish

00:13:07.900 barbershops. Most of it is Kurds. So, let's read through a little bit of this, eh? 1.00

00:13:11.800 Yeah. So, he says, it starts off by describing one of these raids, saying that they smashed through

00:13:17.640 the back doors of a bright modern barbershop in the market town of Shrewsbury. Of course,

00:13:22.980 it's in a lovely little town like Shrewsbury. Inside, they immediately detain two men who,

00:13:27.340 we are later told, are Kurdish asylum seekers. Both men are later released. It's the first of six

00:13:33.720 raids that day where police seize thousands of pounds in cash and illicit vapes. The officers are here

00:13:40.560 with a warrant to search the premises because of suspected money laundering. They say their

00:13:45.040 intelligence also suggests the shop is linked to sale of illicit cigarettes and vapes, illegal

00:13:49.500 immigration, and drug dealing, because one of the things these people like to do is basically sponsor

00:13:54.760 boats to get their new staff to come over the channel so that they don't have to pay them.

00:13:59.960 Yeah, it's literally the business model, isn't it?

00:14:01.980 Yes. Detective Inspector Daniel Fenn, on his ninth raid of the week, says that some barbershops such as

00:14:07.860 this are claiming income of £100,000 to £150,000 per month. They aren't, yeah, very profitable,

00:14:16.440 and that's probably just the income that they are declaring. So who knows how much else they're

00:14:20.780 making extra on the side. They aren't getting that amount of customers to warrant that amount

00:14:24.760 of money. CCTV and other barbers have been raided. It's shown that they don't have many customers,

00:14:29.640 so footage of this one will also be examined according to the detective inspector. So that confirms

00:14:34.920 a lot of things that you can just observe walking through the towns, looking into these yourself,

00:14:40.560 is that they don't normally have customers. I've seen people try and excuse it. Aaron Bastani,

00:14:45.800 who flip-flops so often on whether he wants to be based or not, making the excuse, well, you know,

00:14:50.800 in Turkey, it's a very privileged position to be a barber. They've got a great cultural heritage of it.

00:14:56.380 So people love going to them because they know they're going to get a great haircut.

00:14:59.920 I guess that we just don't see them at peak hours then? Well, no. No, the actual footage of

00:15:06.280 their own shop shows that they're empty 99% of the time. This raid in Shrewsbury was one of 265

00:15:13.540 carried out across England and Wales last month as part of a crackdown on these high street

00:15:18.420 businesses, often Turkish-style barbers, vape shops, and mini-marts. That's another one.

00:15:23.260 Like, again, this shop right here, Cheshire Halal Meat Centre, how long do you reckon the staff

00:15:29.700 have been in the country for? Can't have been that long. I wonder what their visa situation

00:15:33.660 is looking like right now. Probably less time than the meat, actually.

00:15:37.420 Yeah. Judging by the hygiene rating, I bet. I bet. But a lot of those mini-mart shops that you see

00:15:46.160 if you go down the high street as well, I'm very suspicious of all of those. Who knows what

00:15:50.440 they're actually keeping in the cellar round back. And you mentioned as well, there was the Kenyan 1.00

00:15:55.320 meat shop where they just had raw meat on the floor. And wasn't it rats as well?

00:16:00.740 Yeah, yeah. Rats eating the raw meat that was just left on the floor. And it's disgusting.

00:16:06.020 Well, it's interesting as well, actually, you know, because there was a first wave of this.

00:16:10.380 There was an earlier wave of this, right? The Polskischklep, you know. 1.00

00:16:13.840 Yeah, yeah. Plenty of them where I'm from.

00:16:16.160 They're still around. If you go to my one there, you can see.

00:16:19.200 Yes, yeah. Along that...

00:16:21.320 Yeah, right there.

00:16:22.000 Literally right there.

00:16:22.480 Bracow, Polskischklep.

00:16:24.480 Yeah.

00:16:24.800 Because that was, I mean, that was an early kind of bellwether, I think, of this change.

00:16:31.140 The appearance of these, you know, of these Polish mini-marts and Polish shops. And

00:16:35.220 people kind of didn't like it. But there wasn't the same suggestion, I think, of criminality.

00:16:42.220 Yeah.

00:16:42.280 No, it was more just the suggestion of they're forming an ethnic on-crieve in their own little

00:16:46.440 economy where they keep to themselves. Yeah.

00:16:48.720 It wasn't necessarily that we looked and thought, oh, they're probably criminals. And in my

00:16:52.460 experience, the criminality of the Poles, if they were criminals who came over here, 1.00

00:16:57.680 was they would start claiming benefits and then go back to Poland and keep claiming the

00:17:01.560 benefits. I've known quite a few cases like that.

00:17:04.060 They weren't...

00:17:04.440 Administrative.

00:17:05.720 Correct.

00:17:05.920 Yeah. They weren't actively involved in crime in the same way than trafficking and

00:17:10.620 the same way these other people were. But carrying on, politicians and members of the

00:17:16.740 public, me, me, me, I've been sounding, I've been talking about this for at least two

00:17:22.240 years now, have raised concerns about many of these businesses, which have boomed even

00:17:26.320 while high streets appear to be in decline. The average number of barbers per person in

00:17:30.160 England and Wales has doubled in the past 10 years, according to analysis by Green Street.

00:17:37.740 Is there something in the water that's making our hair grow faster?

00:17:40.680 I mean, maybe. Maybe.

00:17:43.540 Or maybe not.

00:17:45.180 Maybe not.

00:17:46.040 Maybe not.

00:17:46.940 Now the National Crime Agency says it has launched the crackdown called Operation Machinize

00:17:53.500 in response to growing intelligence reports that some of these shops are being used for

00:17:58.820 money laundering. Again, any of us could have told you this. But we had 14 years of the

00:18:03.900 Conservatives letting this happen, continually ignoring the problem, downplaying the problem,

00:18:09.720 calling you racist if you brought up the problem. And now we get Labour, and I hate to keep

00:18:13.940 saying this, but they're actually doing something about it.

00:18:16.960 I mean, the old cliche of the Conservatives fail to conserve anything couldn't be more true,

00:18:21.440 could it?

00:18:22.460 Yes. But gangs are falsely reporting the proceeds of criminal operations, etc., etc., exactly how

00:18:28.740 you know money laundering already works. Despite these shops operating openly for years on

00:18:33.960 high streets and attracting widespread local suspicion, this is the first coordinated action

00:18:39.140 of its kind by the police, tax and immigration inspectors, and trading standards officers.

00:18:43.820 We were given, the BBC, exclusive access to dozens of raids carried out by Greater Manchester

00:18:49.140 and West Mercia police. During the operation, police targeted a series of linked mini-marts in

00:18:54.840 Rochdale that they suspect are fronts for illegal activity, staffed by Kurds, Iraqi, and Iranian

00:19:01.000 asylum seekers. Officers later said some of the staff were working in the UK illegally.

00:19:05.720 I'm sure it was more than just some of them. Most of them. A cannabis farm was found in

00:19:10.800 Lee and over 150 plants seized. Also found during raids across Greater Manchester were brown

00:19:15.940 powder believed to be heroin, vials of testosterone, nitrous oxide, Xanax tranquilizer, and the machete.

00:19:23.400 Oh yeah. Big surprise. But I thought the government had banned those. How'd that slip through the

00:19:28.200 cracks?

00:19:28.740 Is it the mosque, Harry? 0.98

00:19:29.840 Of course. No, that's in Stoke. That's in Stoke. Perhaps there's a network.

00:19:34.920 35 people were arrested. 55 suspected illegal immigrants were questioned. Three potential

00:19:39.760 victims, poor victims, of modern slavery were identified. Bank accounts and assets worth over

00:19:45.760 one million pounds were later frozen and 40 grand in cash was seized. And that's just across

00:19:51.320 Greater Manchester and West Mercia, which is a relatively small part of the country taken

00:19:56.840 in its hole. So this is just going to be wide scale across the entire country, wherever these

00:20:01.960 businesses open up. So again, if you've walked past these businesses in your own high street

00:20:06.560 and said, how the hell are they still open when everything else is closed? Your suspicions

00:20:11.180 are confirmed, mate. Legitimate barbers have said they want to see a registration scheme and

00:20:15.840 crackdown on unscrupulous operators. And the SNCA estimates that 12 billion pounds in cash

00:20:22.320 is laundered in the UK every year. Some of it through these criminal front organizations.

00:20:28.540 Their numbers appeared to surge as shop vacancies grew in the wake of the pandemic, as we've already

00:20:34.540 discussed, creating this opening for the criminal gangs. So if there wasn't any, if you didn't hate

00:20:38.680 the government enough for locking you down for two years, destroying the economy, opening the flood

00:20:44.420 floodgates for the Boris wave, also it allowed for this to come in at an even greater scale than

00:20:50.220 had already happened.

00:20:51.000 So just let me, so basically there are a bunch of drug running human trafficking gangs that have

00:20:59.340 bought up our high streets to slush their illegitimate money through in order to continue to make

00:21:07.980 millions and millions of pounds in profit. And this is why we live in a dystopia now.

00:21:14.660 Because these are now free, because lawful legitimate businesses were shut down by the government

00:21:20.500 and of course are unable to reopen because the foot traffic is just simply not there to sustain them.

00:21:26.900 Am I summarizing this correctly?

00:21:28.180 That sounds pretty fair.

00:21:29.500 Jesus Christ.

00:21:30.600 And again, on the fact that these people sponsor their own people to come across the channel as well,

00:21:35.940 they point out here, there was in 2023, the conviction by the NCA of one Iranian Kurdish

00:21:44.520 barbershop owner, Hewa Rahimpur, who was using his shop in London as a base for a criminal organization

00:21:50.660 which smuggled 10,000 people into the UK over the boats. And that's just one guy in one shop.

00:21:58.640 It's so bad.

00:22:00.480 Yeah. And it's worth remembering as well, of course, you know, the pandemic didn't just benefit these

00:22:06.180 people. Okay. It totally undercut the middle classes. It totally undercut the hardworking 0.59

00:22:11.200 small business owners, but it transferred their wealth to the wealthiest people as well, to the

00:22:16.680 mega billionaires. I mean, I don't want to sound too much like a Marxist or anything.

00:22:21.000 But it's true, you know, so what we've got actually is we've got this crazy, crazy series

00:22:27.120 of restrictions that hand the high street to organized crime. And also a large part of the

00:22:33.840 markets are the businesses that are shut down to Google and Amazon and, you know, all of these

00:22:38.680 multinationals, enormous corporations. I mean, it's the definition of a tyranny.

00:22:44.960 It's an unbelievable betrayal.

00:22:46.320 And we wonder why we live in a dystopia. We wonder why the country looks like it's falling apart.

00:22:52.180 Well, of course it is. The criminals are not going to spend any of their ill-gotten gains up

00:22:58.800 keeping the front of their shop or making sure that the streets look...

00:23:01.720 Why they're hideous.

00:23:03.300 Exactly. It's why they're hideous. 0.72

00:23:04.540 Again, I think it's important to note as well, even if these businesses were all legal, were all

00:23:09.960 profitable and not fronts for organized crime, which some of them, some of them aren't, they are still

00:23:15.980 hideous eyesores that sell absolute tat, that have no place on our high streets, as far as I'm

00:23:23.980 concerned. Our high streets should be there for businesses that deserve to be there, including

00:23:28.440 something that you see less and less, actually locally run independent shops by Brits, selling

00:23:35.680 whatever it is that they are specialists at. Butchers, people who create furniture, all sorts

00:23:41.500 of things. You can do that, and it's a shame to see that vanish, because it takes away the local

00:23:46.040 character of these towns and replaces it with this homogenous mess. 0.86

00:23:50.380 I mean, I interviewed a bunch of people on Swindon streets the other day, and one of the recurring

00:23:55.260 points that they made that I hadn't really thought about was that there was nothing in... no shops in

00:24:01.300 Swindon. And the thing is, you know, there are lots of shops in Swindon. They're just... when they're not

00:24:05.940 barbers or vape shops, they're weird sort of, like, Bangladeshi luggage shops, where, like,

00:24:12.360 there are at least two... Like, the one that was down the high street that had a speaker shouting

00:24:16.380 at you all day, right? Yeah, exactly. And eventually, I guess they took the hint. It was literally

00:24:21.620 some Indian accent, closing sale! It's just all day into the... I guess enough dirty looks 0.99

00:24:27.840 made them turn off. But the point is, there's never anyone in there. All they seem to sell

00:24:30.980 as luggage. And it's like, okay, but what... How... And this took over the top man, you know.

00:24:35.200 Yeah, it was absurd. If you walked past it, the entire front of the shop was just suitcases.

00:24:40.880 Yeah. And it... I hadn't...

00:24:43.020 Why? Who's buying these? I hadn't really noticed these until these people were pointing out

00:24:46.900 that, look, you know, and, you know, standing by the Brunel statue, he said, look, there's

00:24:50.720 two there. It's like, one next to another. It's like, how are these... So I'm assuming

00:24:55.040 that these must also be part of this sort of black economy, where... Because no one's buying 0.99

00:24:59.980 much goddamn luggage. I think the evidence is showing that it's a safe assumption to 0.98

00:25:03.260 make. Right. And while it's nice that this is being done, finally some action seems to

00:25:08.200 be taken, it's only a half measure. Cracking down on it needs to crack down harder, because

00:25:13.240 they point out at the end of the article, so far, only 10 of the shops that were raided

00:25:17.880 in this have been shut down. The majority of the shops that the BBC visited were back up

00:25:24.020 and running within minutes of the police leaving. So, you need to crack down, you need to crack

00:25:29.420 down hard, you need to shut these places down, there needs to be criminal charges put against

00:25:33.900 these people, if they are criminals, and the people who shouldn't be put in this country

00:25:37.260 in the first place, who are being employed by them, should be deported immediately.

00:25:40.380 I mean, what's important as well, I think, and this is something that's come through with

00:25:45.020 the, you know, with the grooming gang scandal as well, is, you know, I mean, these people

00:25:49.480 are clannish people, they're cousin marriers, right? 0.99

00:25:52.100 Yeah. That's a very polite way of putting it.

00:25:54.800 Yeah, that's, yeah, that's, that's me, that's me being tactful. Uh, so this isn't just, this

00:26:01.360 shouldn't just be treated as individuals, you know, it's an individual vape shop. I mean,

00:26:06.020 there are networks, there are familial networks, not only within the UK, but also actually stretching

00:26:11.740 back to the Middle East. 0.82

00:26:13.280 And clearly, if one shop is able to get 10,000 people in, who are these contacts that he has

00:26:18.380 to get them over?

00:26:19.240 Yeah. I mean, this, this has to be treated actually as like an international crime.

00:26:24.940 Foreign interference.

00:26:25.920 Yeah. I mean, yeah. I mean, if, if you, yeah, if you wanted to go Trump, you could designate

00:26:29.740 them as alien enemies and say, you know, we're going to, we're going to deploy the full force

00:26:33.740 of the British state and the military against them. I mean, that's what you would, that's

00:26:37.460 what would the ECHR have to say about that?

00:26:40.720 Well, quite. Yeah.

00:26:42.240 But that is what needs to be done. And hopefully, seeing as they seem to be starting to take action,

00:26:47.680 more action will be taken. And, uh, one day, perhaps England will have nice high streets

00:26:53.780 and towns that you can live in again.

00:26:56.060 Uh, Ryan, uh, the engaged few, I'm not reading that. I can't read that. Uh, Ryan says, uh,

00:27:02.420 he visited Clacton and the same thing is happening in Clacton. So even, even somewhere that is

00:27:07.700 like 93% English.

00:27:11.200 It's how it happens. It's how they get the foot in the door.

00:27:13.760 Yeah. Well, I went to Salisbury and that's still like 87% English, but even there, barbershop,

00:27:19.420 vaporshop.

00:27:20.080 And it's like, my God, man.

00:27:22.580 OPH UK says, there's an immigrant that, at my work that does the dishes. Been here three 1.00

00:27:26.240 years. Doesn't speak a word of English. Bought a 300k house the other week. I have a great

00:27:30.320 credit rating or something.

00:27:32.360 300k house. Okay.

00:27:34.440 Lord of Nothing says, I've returned from my trip to England. Chichester was lovely, idyllic,

00:27:38.820 and full of English people. London was grimy, artificial, and full of foreigners. Uh, yes. 1.00

00:27:43.140 There are still nice places.

00:27:45.040 Yeah, yeah, yeah. There are. It's just not the main cities. Uh, Bald Eagle says, the Muslims 1.00

00:27:49.320 have made the mistake of rocking the boat by having their MPs be independent of Labour.

00:27:53.160 This is the only reason why Labour is cracking down. Otherwise, nothing would be done.

00:27:56.720 Oh, what do you make of that?

00:27:58.040 I mean, it would be nice if that is the case, that if they're no longer useful as a client

00:28:01.720 group, all of a sudden they go full, full Bowden and say, well, we'll clear them out

00:28:05.740 then.

00:28:06.520 I don't think they do.

00:28:07.320 I don't, I don't, I don't.

00:28:08.760 But it's a nice fantasy.

00:28:10.180 But it's an interesting, interesting take.

00:28:12.020 Well, because if they, if they are no longer a client group, what they've done is they've

00:28:16.220 imported a golem that will turn on them.

00:28:19.380 The Engaged View says, well, isn't it wonderful that people from ethnicities who are busy killing 1.00

00:28:23.400 each other back in their home countries are coming together to corrode the social fabric

00:28:26.880 in England?

00:28:27.860 Good point.

00:28:29.060 Uh, Scanline says, while working in banking, I had a legal obligation to report these businesses.

00:28:32.880 Otherwise, I would be fined and arrested for not reporting fraud.

00:28:35.900 The reports never result in anything.

00:28:37.380 Also, there's a reason why they don't take card.

00:28:39.160 Uh, they only take cash.

00:28:40.860 Uh, they're probably not using bank accounts.

00:28:43.360 Uh, Davey says, there was a car wash in Ripon over COVID and, uh, there was a car wash in

00:28:49.640 Ripon over COVID.

00:28:50.540 The owner just abandoned the illegals to fend for themselves. 0.98

00:28:53.580 The guy living next door to the place fed them, uh, lefty as hell as he kicked off, uh,

00:28:59.740 when I said I'd report them.

00:29:01.440 Okay.

00:29:01.880 I, I hope he did report them because, uh, I mean, he's just engaged in criminal activity

00:29:06.660 if he's helping them.

00:29:07.860 Anyway, on that note, let's, uh, let's, let's move on.

00:29:11.680 So what's, uh, what's happening?

00:29:14.300 So, yes, I'm going to be talking about government-enforced anti-white racism with respect to this rather

00:29:21.180 dismal story about Austin Metcalfe, who was, uh, an American schoolboy, 17 years old.

00:29:27.500 He was the one who was murdered recently, wasn't he?

00:29:29.220 He was, yeah.

00:29:30.120 Very, very promising young man.

00:29:31.880 Looks like he was pretty much a model citizen.

00:29:34.900 Let me just head it off straight away.

00:29:36.480 Tim Pool told me it was self-defense by the guy who killed him.

00:29:39.440 Is that true?

00:29:40.700 Uh, well, I mean, I mean, obviously I, I wouldn't, I would be the last person to doubt Tim Pool's

00:29:44.480 logic, uh, when it comes to self-defense, he got Kyle Rittenhouse very right, didn't he?

00:29:49.880 He famously said that Kyle Rittenhouse was a murderer, I believe.

00:29:53.820 Did he?

00:29:54.220 He did, yeah, he did.

00:29:55.240 I didn't know, I didn't know that, actually.

00:29:56.300 Yes, he did, yeah.

00:29:56.920 He was, he came down very hard on the side of the, uh, three Antifa mutants who tried

00:30:02.100 to, who tried to murder Kyle Rittenhouse and failed.

00:30:05.580 Yeah, he tried to touch him.

00:30:06.780 They died doing what they did best, trying to touch a minor.

00:30:10.100 I think that was, that was a joke Tucker Carlson made, actually, which was good.

00:30:13.680 But yeah, no, so we've got this, this chap, Austin Metcalfe, 17 years old, had a track

00:30:18.180 meet, uh, is stabbed in the heart by, uh, another schoolboy, Carmelo Anthony.

00:30:24.100 He was black, Austin Metcalfe was white, Carmelo Anthony had brought a knife with him to the

00:30:30.580 track meet, as you do.

00:30:31.860 I remember my days at school when we used to do athletics and we'd go to Exeter to the

00:30:36.400 local, I would always bring a knife with me and, uh, just in case somebody touched my

00:30:41.700 backpack, um.

00:30:42.280 Um, which is, which is basically, it's your, it's your right to self-defense, right?

00:30:46.600 Yeah, it is.

00:30:47.540 I, it's, uh, property rights are fundamental for Anglos.

00:30:51.240 Because England cares so much about them these days.

00:30:53.260 Yep.

00:30:53.520 Even dark Britons like myself, then we, we cleave very, very jealously to our property.

00:30:58.180 And so, but, um, but yes, I mean, details have been emerging about this, about this pretty

00:31:04.380 dismal case, but it definitely looks like it wasn't a case of self-defense, like this

00:31:08.460 young black man was, uh, young black boy, 17 year old boy was, was urging this Austin 0.91

00:31:14.740 Metcalfe onto something and then stabbed him in the heart.

00:31:17.460 He died in his brother's arms, tragically.

00:31:20.380 And then what did we see within hours of this young man's death, uh, his father, his father

00:31:28.600 comes out and says, uh, I forgive the killer.

00:31:32.860 Uh, we shouldn't be hard.

00:31:34.840 We shouldn't be hard on this, uh, on this young man.

00:31:38.160 You know, he's, he's made a mistake.

00:31:40.560 His life shouldn't be ruined, basically.

00:31:43.460 So which government agency, um, prepped him to give that speech?

00:31:46.800 Well, quite.

00:31:47.580 Yeah, quite.

00:31:48.500 Um, so yeah, so this is the, this is the young man.

00:31:52.180 This is Carmelo Anthony.

00:31:53.180 He posted, I believe one or both of those pictures just hours before he stabbed Austin

00:31:59.500 Metcalfe to death.

00:32:00.560 I think it was the one with the, one with the, uh, AK that he posted.

00:32:04.500 So, I mean, I think he has form.

00:32:06.100 He'd been suspended from school actually for bringing in a knife before.

00:32:09.580 So, you know, he had form, but anyway, there's a big, you know, you've got people like Tim

00:32:14.040 Poole coming down on his side.

00:32:15.400 There's a big give, send, go campaign, GoFundMe campaign that's raised hundreds of thousands

00:32:19.920 of dollars.

00:32:20.580 I mean, the, the comments actually by the donors are very, very enlightening as to, you

00:32:26.160 know.

00:32:26.340 So they're trying to do a defense fund for him for a Rittenhouse style case.

00:32:29.740 Yes, yes, they are.

00:32:31.260 They are.

00:32:31.900 And, um, you know, he's, he's got kind of knee jerk, uh, tribal support, I think from, 0.72

00:32:37.740 from the black community in the US, of course.

00:32:39.620 The story that I'd seen in favor of his self-defense was essentially, he was sat on a bench.

00:32:45.480 Austin Metcalfe and his brother began harassing him, trying to get him to shift off of the

00:32:49.980 bench.

00:32:50.400 So in a case of self-defense, he decided to stab him, which is what I do.

00:32:53.960 Hardly proportionally.

00:32:54.800 Well, what they're, what they're actually trying to do is they're trying to make it

00:32:57.040 like a modern day Rosa Parks.

00:32:59.140 And I mean, I, I remember Rosa Parks famously posing with, um. 0.51

00:33:03.220 Yeah, which, which was also a staged event by the NAACP.

00:33:07.380 It was, it was, and it looks like actually, I mean, there was a tweet this morning, actually

00:33:11.240 I didn't, I didn't put it in the show notes, but there was a tweet where someone was saying

00:33:14.420 the people who are now representing this chap, Carmelo Anthony, are actually known like

00:33:19.820 race grifter types.

00:33:20.880 And it looks like they're gearing up for a kind of George Floyd kind of sanctification.

00:33:26.540 This is going to be an OJ trial, isn't it?

00:33:28.920 That kind, yeah, that kind of thing.

00:33:31.040 Um, but, but what's, but, but, but the real focus here for me is of course this, uh, apology.

00:33:37.020 So let's have, this is his father.

00:33:38.560 This is Austin Metcalfe's father, Lee Metcalfe.

00:33:40.640 And this is what he had to say.

00:33:41.640 It's very unfortunate that this other child decided to make a bad choice that's going to

00:33:46.760 affect him for the rest of his life.

00:33:48.480 I have compassion for every human being.

00:33:52.760 This is not, I want to make this very clear.

00:33:55.700 This is not a race issue.

00:33:57.180 This is not a black and white issue.

00:33:59.080 I don't want someone stepping up on a soapbox trying to politicize this.

00:34:02.600 I don't appreciate some of the remarks I've seen online that people say there was this

00:34:07.500 fight and there was, they don't know.

00:34:09.140 They weren't there.

00:34:10.800 Neither was he.

00:34:11.900 He wasn't there.

00:34:13.220 So, sorry.

00:34:13.700 So is he, is he trying to defend the honor of his son's killer?

00:34:17.240 Yeah.

00:34:17.640 And defend his feelings as well.

00:34:19.940 Right.

00:34:20.440 Yeah.

00:34:20.760 I don't know how you, when, when was this interview done?

00:34:23.500 How soon was it done after his son was murdered?

00:34:25.780 Within hours.

00:34:26.260 Within hours.

00:34:27.260 Same day.

00:34:27.860 How, how was he even composed enough to be able to conduct an interview like this?

00:34:32.240 You tell me.

00:34:33.260 And what's interesting, actually, if we look at the next link is that his wife and the

00:34:39.120 son who actually cradled his brother in his arm.

00:34:41.580 He was a twin, wasn't he?

00:34:42.960 Twin.

00:34:43.360 Yeah.

00:34:43.660 17.

00:34:44.720 They, they have a very different take on whether the killer should be offered compassion.

00:34:49.900 I heard your husband say within hours of this, that he forgave this other young man, that

00:34:56.160 he forgave this other young man.

00:34:57.640 And he got there so quickly.

00:34:59.320 And I honestly don't know that I could.

00:35:01.360 And I just want to see, and I don't know if there's a right or wrong place to be, especially

00:35:05.900 as quickly as this has happened.

00:35:07.260 Megan, how do you feel on that front today?

00:35:14.460 I am not like their dad.

00:35:17.940 I am so angry at that boy.

00:35:24.560 It's just, it's just not fair.

00:35:27.740 That's all, that's all I have.

00:35:30.120 I understand.

00:35:31.240 I'd like to say, I'd like to say, it's for Dave, not for God, but I'm not at that point

00:35:37.080 yet to forgive that kid or what he did to my brother.

00:35:39.860 Because, you know, 17 years, my best friend just turned in a blink of an eye, I just, I

00:35:44.960 lost him.

00:35:46.140 So I'm not at that point.

00:35:49.660 Yeah.

00:35:51.160 It's crazy.

00:35:52.080 It's crazy.

00:35:53.660 So, I mean, as you can see, look, the brother has a cross around his neck.

00:35:56.980 So they're obviously, I would say, we can infer that they're, they're Christian.

00:36:01.320 But what, what is it that actually makes a father forgive his son's killer like this

00:36:06.200 and display more concern for the killer than his own son?

00:36:10.060 So, I mean, I wrote a piece for Infowars last weekend where I was talking, you know, about

00:36:15.560 the case.

00:36:16.100 And, you know, I said, look, Jeff Metcalf, the father, could just be a deeply committed

00:36:20.040 Christian.

00:36:20.540 He could be someone who genuinely, genuinely believes in the value of forgiveness and rejects

00:36:27.140 the law of an eye for an eye.

00:36:28.260 Or alternatively, he could just be a libertad whose brain has been so fried by the programming,

00:36:35.920 so fried by the programming that all he really cares about is signaling his virtue.

00:36:40.600 You know, he, he, he's more interested in going on the news and saying, I'm a good person.

00:36:45.960 I mean, I mean, if it's that second one, that's just sympathy for what happened to his son.

00:36:52.440 I can't imagine what he's going through, but that's a deeply inhuman reaction to something.

00:36:56.700 Well, I don't know, I wonder how much of this is him trying to exercise some sort of agency

00:37:01.680 of the situation, right?

00:37:03.700 Because there's nothing that he can do otherwise.

00:37:07.000 And it's, it's quite harrowing.

00:37:08.800 I mean, grief does terrible things to people.

00:37:11.880 And I think unless you've actually experienced real grief yourself, unless you've had a child

00:37:17.020 murdered, and then you've got cameras pointed in your face, I mean, you don't honestly

00:37:20.860 know how you would react.

00:37:22.240 You know, and I, I mean, I've, I've been to funerals and I've seen, you know, mothers

00:37:28.720 whose children have died young and they're not, they're not even crying, you know?

00:37:33.560 So it's not, I mean, it's not open and shut, but nevertheless, there's this phenomenon that

00:37:39.940 we see again and again of white parents whose children are murdered or seriously injured 0.87

00:37:46.000 by non-whites in violent crime. 0.81

00:37:49.460 And what's their first instinct? 0.81

00:37:50.980 They go on the television and say, you know, I've forgiven the attacker, the killer.

00:37:56.340 It's not about race.

00:37:57.900 It's categorically not about race.

00:38:00.360 It always feels like a talking point that has been handed to them.

00:38:03.540 Yeah.

00:38:03.880 I mean, it sounds like a script.

00:38:05.920 And so who would, who might be providing this script?

00:38:08.900 Well, there's a, there's a, uh, an agency within the Department of Justice called the

00:38:15.100 Community Relations, uh, Service.

00:38:17.880 Would you be able to, that's it, nice.

00:38:19.900 Uh, the Community Relations Service.

00:38:22.260 And I think it's a very secretive organization.

00:38:26.460 First of all, that's, uh, because, because of what it does and because of, you know, the

00:38:30.680 potential, really the explosiveness, actually, I think of what it does.

00:38:34.660 So the Community Relations Service was founded off the back of the Civil Rights Act in 1964.

00:38:41.280 So it was, it was dreamed up basically by JFK, but it wasn't implemented, uh, you know, by

00:38:47.800 JFK because he was killed.

00:38:49.020 It was his successor, Lyndon Banger Johnson, who, uh, oversaw its creation.

00:38:53.160 And it was basically founded to pour oil on troubled waters.

00:38:57.360 And, you know, I mean, the waters were very troubled in the 1960s, right?

00:39:01.260 And it was about, it was about trying to bring together the black and white communities to

00:39:05.100 avoid racial violence, et cetera.

00:39:08.780 Um, so the, the website says, and this is the website that we've got up, the mission

00:39:13.140 of the office is to be America's peacemaker tasked with preventing and resolving racial 0.99

00:39:17.460 and ethnic tensions, conflicts, and civil disorders, and in restoring racial stability

00:39:22.320 and harmony.

00:39:24.380 Uh, this is the point, right?

00:39:26.320 And this is, this is why they get the parents to come out and say, this wasn't about race.

00:39:31.180 I forgive my son's killer because there's, there is a collective debt being incurred.

00:39:35.860 It's happened.

00:39:37.100 And it's very difficult for the individualist liberal mind to conceive of this, but there's

00:39:42.440 a deep sort of human understanding.

00:39:44.240 And so the, the father is, when they come out and do, when they come out and say these

00:39:49.200 things, they are in some way being responsible.

00:39:52.520 They're in some way saying, well, look, I don't want the collective on one side to have

00:39:57.480 an increased level of hatred for the collective on the other.

00:40:01.640 And I want to maintain the harmony of society because these people have to live with us and

00:40:06.620 we don't want to arrive in a kind of 1930s Germany situation.

00:40:10.460 And so I, I can understand why they're doing it.

00:40:12.800 But as you said, it's kind of inhuman because it's entirely natural to have this, when this

00:40:18.860 happens to have a kind of sense of, no, there's a burden that you keep incurring and I am unable

00:40:25.020 to get restitution.

00:40:26.440 And it constantly happens and there's no restitution for this burden that's being incurred.

00:40:31.420 Listen, I see things in a quite Carlisle-ian perspective personally, in that justice is

00:40:35.880 a good's revenge against evil.

00:40:38.160 Yes.

00:40:39.260 And if you deny that justice, well, then you're allowing evil to win.

00:40:44.920 But what, but what's interesting of course is that it's not, on the one hand, I could

00:40:49.300 understand a very committed Christian saying, look, I, you know, I, I abdure the, the possibility 0.83

00:40:56.140 of, of vengeance.

00:40:57.780 I don't want that.

00:40:58.880 But it's the, then going on to say, there's obviously no racial motive.

00:41:03.800 Yeah.

00:41:04.620 I mean, if you, if you say so, I mean, you know, what, what you're actually doing is you

00:41:09.760 are foreclosing the possibility of any investigation of there ever actually being a racial motive.

00:41:14.480 And what was the history between these two kids?

00:41:16.200 Well, exactly.

00:41:16.940 We, we, we don't know yet, but I mean, there doesn't even need to have to be a history.

00:41:20.460 I mean, you know, you can, you can decide to murder someone for racist reasons just from

00:41:25.100 looking at them because you see the color of their skin.

00:41:28.680 And we know the, the rates of interracial violence are incredibly lopsided.

00:41:34.260 Yes.

00:41:34.680 Yeah.

00:41:34.900 Incredibly skewed.

00:41:35.820 So the CRS has been around since the 1960s.

00:41:40.180 Its remit was increased, was broadened in the 1990s to include hate crimes against, you

00:41:45.820 know, sex-based discrimination, gender-based discrimination, all that kind of stuff, as

00:41:51.480 well as racial incidents.

00:41:53.240 We don't know a great deal about when it's used, but it's, but it's, we're told that it

00:41:58.600 was used during the, or in the aftermath of the Rodney King riots, when the police who

00:42:04.440 were, who had beaten Rodney King were on trial, then I think the CRS kind of jumped into action

00:42:10.020 and was used to, to kind of keep tensions down.

00:42:13.640 It was used in 2020 during the summer of Floyd as well.

00:42:17.560 It was present in, in Minneapolis when Chauvin was on trial.

00:42:22.340 Um, but yeah, the, the actual workings of the organization are, uh, kind of opaque, but

00:42:28.240 occasionally you get, you actually get a view into what they really do, like in detail.

00:42:33.540 So, I mean, I started writing about the CRS in, uh, at the end of 2023.

00:42:39.580 And, uh, at that point they had a case study on their website of the killing of a man called

00:42:45.940 Donald Giusti in a park in Maine.

00:42:49.040 Uh, and that really lets you see actually what they do.

00:42:53.520 What does it actually mean for the CRS to intervene in a situation where a white person has been

00:42:59.200 killed by a non-white person?

00:43:01.380 So Donald Giusti was, uh, beaten over the head with a rock and kicked to death by a group 0.88

00:43:08.040 of Somalis in a park in Lewiston, Maine.

00:43:11.100 And, uh, there'd been very serious tensions within the community for some time because there'd

00:43:17.400 been, I mean, it's a, you know, like a small town in Maine, like 94% white state, you get

00:43:23.680 loads of Somalis pumped in and what happens, you know?

00:43:28.160 Apparently they murder someone.

00:43:29.460 Yeah.

00:43:29.760 Yeah.

00:43:30.360 So for weeks beforehand, tensions were rising and then all of a sudden it just explodes one

00:43:34.860 day in the park.

00:43:35.560 Uh, the local police chief calls in the CRS and what do they do?

00:43:41.400 Uh, so the website, the, the case study, which, uh, was up, but is now down said that the CRS

00:43:47.140 was called in to help ease racial, racial, to help ease racial tensions and strengthen

00:43:52.660 community relations.

00:43:53.760 Now, strengthen community relations.

00:43:57.440 Sure.

00:43:57.840 Well, we'll, we'll, we'll.

00:43:58.440 That's a very great euphemistic way.

00:44:00.700 Yeah.

00:44:00.740 I mean, so this is the thing.

00:44:02.260 I mean, all the website, all the language on the website is totally euphemistic, right?

00:44:06.040 Of course it's bureaucraties, right?

00:44:08.260 But we get to see what the peacemaking process actually looks like.

00:44:12.320 So the first thing they do is they get members of Donald Giusti's family, his uncle and his

00:44:18.200 sister to come out and say, please, you know, we want peace.

00:44:23.280 We want calm.

00:44:24.160 We don't want retribution, retaliation, nothing like that.

00:44:26.800 We want people to be able to use this park where Donald Giusti was killed peacefully and

00:44:31.480 to be happy.

00:44:32.800 Uh, so they both made public statements a bit like Austin Metcalfe's father, right?

00:44:38.300 And then they were both reading from the same script.

00:44:40.740 It's very obvious.

00:44:42.120 They use the same words, the same emphases, et cetera.

00:44:44.900 So that's one kind of plank of the, of the CRS, uh, approach.

00:44:50.460 The second thing that they did was they made sure that the man who was identified as the

00:44:55.520 killer actually got off with a nine month sentence.

00:44:59.960 So he was, they ensured he didn't get what he deserved.

00:45:04.160 Didn't get murder.

00:45:04.940 No, he got, he pleaded no contest to a reduced charge of criminal negligence for stamping a

00:45:10.620 man to death in a, in a park.

00:45:12.600 So I'm, I'm assuming that the logic would be, well, if he was convicted of murder, then

00:45:17.540 it would confirm that this was some kind of motivated assault, which could go back into

00:45:23.060 riling up community tension.

00:45:24.500 Exactly.

00:45:25.160 So that's the, I think that's the logic is that look, this man can't be convicted fully

00:45:30.260 for what he's done because that would make, that would make the Somalis angry. 0.85

00:45:33.380 And then there'd be more incidents like this.

00:45:34.980 It'd also make you angry at the Somalis. 0.99

00:45:36.960 Exactly.

00:45:37.520 Exactly.

00:45:37.800 That's, that's the thing they're trying to avoid.

00:45:39.880 We need to try and skirt both edges and keep it down a line.

00:45:43.480 But what it basically amounts to is, is saying that, you know, a brutal racial murder doesn't

00:45:50.580 matter.

00:45:51.060 You know, it doesn't matter.

00:45:51.840 It's swept under the carpet.

00:45:53.440 And, you know, I mean, I hate to be the, imagine if the boot was on the other foot guy,

00:45:57.220 but I mean, can you imagine if a, if a gang of angry guidos, a gang of angry Italian Americans 0.96

00:46:03.420 smashed a Somali over the head? 0.82

00:46:05.860 I mean, could you imagine what might happen if a man overdosing on fentanyl happened to

00:46:11.080 be being lent on by a police officer as he was dying and caught on camera doing so?

00:46:16.300 Yeah.

00:46:16.560 It's this moral debt that's not being paid.

00:46:19.260 That is the real crime.

00:46:21.320 But so this is, I mean, this is like the best documented instance of what the CRS does.

00:46:26.400 But actually, you know, when you know that this is what the CRS does, then a lot of things

00:46:31.200 start to make more sense.

00:46:33.440 So America has a taxpayer funded government department enforcing liberal progressivism

00:46:40.140 at any cost.

00:46:42.060 But, but really, I would say actually enforcing anti-white racism.

00:46:45.380 And this is, yeah, yeah.

00:46:47.300 And this is part and parcel actually with all the DEI programs, with affirmative action, with

00:46:54.020 all of the indoctrination now, the anti-racism training that children have from basically

00:46:58.440 from, from kindergarten, you know.

00:47:02.380 So it's, it's part of a, it's part of a broader kind of structure, I think, of anti-white

00:47:06.540 racism in American government.

00:47:08.320 But like I say, you know, things start to make sense.

00:47:11.400 So you see in a new light, for example, the appalling, appalling, repulsive statement

00:47:19.000 that was made by the father of Aidan Clark during the election campaign.

00:47:24.340 You remember this? 0.88

00:47:25.040 I wish my son had been killed by an old white guy instead of a, well, he wasn't a Haitian. 1.00

00:47:30.800 But no, it's the thing. 0.95

00:47:31.920 Because they say his death has been used to spread hate towards migrants.

00:47:35.580 It's about, I want to avoid the negative characterisation of a group that has, whether

00:47:40.780 we like to admit it or not, taken on a kind of moral debt for their crime against another

00:47:45.780 group.

00:47:46.700 That's, again, the liberal mind has real trouble dealing with collective guilt.

00:47:51.420 But I'm sorry, the human soul feels it.

00:47:54.360 And that's what all of this is about.

00:47:56.860 But what, I mean, what, and what's particularly interesting about Aidan Clark's father is that

00:48:01.280 this was during the election campaign, right?

00:48:03.360 This was when, after Captive Dreamer, you know.

00:48:07.360 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:48:07.920 The Springfield and with all of the Haitians. 1.00

00:48:10.380 Yeah, the 50,000 or 20,000 Haitians.

00:48:11.880 They were eating the dogs.

00:48:13.120 Eating the cats.

00:48:15.520 And yeah, so, I mean, this was a live political issue.

00:48:19.820 And it was a winning issue for Trump in the end, I think.

00:48:23.200 And so that makes the likelihood that actually the Community Relations Service stepped in more

00:48:29.600 likely.

00:48:30.100 I mean, I think that's exactly what it is.

00:48:31.880 I think that's exactly what they did.

00:48:33.400 They went and they spoke to the father.

00:48:35.880 And they said, look, would you say something about the politicization of your child's murder?

00:48:42.420 And whether they wrote him a script or whether they just sat down and talked to him and said,

00:48:46.000 you know, maybe it'd be good if you said this.

00:48:47.720 We don't know.

00:48:49.020 And it's always the same script, though.

00:48:51.140 Oh, you're spreading hate towards this group.

00:48:54.340 And it's like, okay, but that group just killed someone that you know and love.

00:48:57.980 Right.

00:48:58.260 And again, it's, I mean, I wonder what they hang over these people's heads to get them

00:49:03.080 to comply with this.

00:49:04.740 I bet what they say is, well, look, you don't want race riots, do you?

00:49:07.700 You don't want this community being targeted by the white community, do you?

00:49:12.240 I also think that there's just an element of basic psychology.

00:49:15.660 Like if you think about the Milgram experiments, the Stanley Milgram experiments, the electroshock

00:49:19.760 experiments, right?

00:49:21.420 You put someone in a room and you tell them to administer electric shocks to somebody that

00:49:26.360 could potentially kill them.

00:49:27.700 They don't know whether it's real or not.

00:49:29.400 And then you bring in someone with a lab coat and they say, okay, keep cranking it, keep cranking

00:49:35.060 it.

00:49:35.340 And because the person's in a lab coat and they look like they're an expert, the ordinary

00:49:39.000 person tends to do it.

00:49:40.960 I think there's an element actually where it's just these people turn up and people are like,

00:49:45.120 okay, I've got to go along with this.

00:49:46.940 I've got to go along with this.

00:49:48.160 You know, there's the glare of the national and even international media.

00:49:52.340 And we've got these people, these nice people from the government who want me to do something

00:49:55.860 good.

00:49:57.000 Yeah.

00:49:57.280 And I think white people generally are more trusting of the government maybe than they

00:50:01.940 should be.

00:50:02.400 Than they should be.

00:50:03.060 And certainly than other groups.

00:50:05.040 But there's some good news at least, which is that the CRS actually appears to be on its

00:50:10.520 way out.

00:50:11.060 So we've got big purges across the US government.

00:50:13.080 And this was announced very quietly.

00:50:15.160 And it was announced quietly, actually, because people just don't know about the CRS.

00:50:18.580 Yeah, I've never heard of it.

00:50:19.660 Yeah, that's the interesting thing is that people just don't know that this department

00:50:22.560 even exists, but it does.

00:50:24.220 So there's a memo circulating.

00:50:26.240 It's been marked for closure.

00:50:27.820 And, you know, I think it's part and parcel disclosure of Trump's broader assault, actually,

00:50:34.400 on the kind of edifice of anti-white racism within the US government, within the education

00:50:39.260 system, et cetera.

00:50:40.160 I think that's how it should be seen.

00:50:41.840 And I'm sure that's how people in the Trump admin are probably conceiving of this.

00:50:48.700 But it would be nice before the agency is disbanded, actually, if we had some kind of

00:50:53.920 investigation of what it does.

00:50:55.560 And if it's actually brought to light, you know, this is what this, you know, this department,

00:51:00.300 this agency has been doing.

00:51:01.440 And this is how they've been doing it.

00:51:02.940 It would be nice to know, you know, which cases were they involved in?

00:51:05.540 I'd love a full disclosure of all of the major incidents that they were involved in covering

00:51:10.380 up.

00:51:11.240 Yeah.

00:51:11.500 I mean, I think you would, I think you would discover that actually it's been working over

00:51:16.520 time all across the US.

00:51:18.760 Small cases that never make it into the media or barely make it into the media, you know.

00:51:24.340 You know, which judges have they been talking to?

00:51:26.580 You know, how, how, how were they able to alter the sentencing of murderers and rapists and

00:51:32.500 violent criminals?

00:51:33.160 I mean, it's, it's, it's something that needs to have the lid blown off it, I think.

00:51:38.420 But what's interesting, of course, is that this, you know, this isn't, this isn't confined

00:51:44.820 to the US.

00:51:46.640 So this kind of shaping of public opinion in the face of negative events, in the face of

00:51:55.980 violent events that have the potential, I think, to cause kind of spectacular blowback

00:52:01.080 and public outrage and maybe even riots, that kind of thing.

00:52:05.900 We actually see that across the Western world.

00:52:08.720 And in the UK, it's called, or one of the things it's called is controlled spontaneity.

00:52:13.740 And there was a great piece that revealed what controlled spontaneity is in, I think, yeah,

00:52:20.960 in sort of 2017, 2018, 2019, actually, sorry, on the website Middle East Eye.

00:52:26.920 So I actually wrote about controlled spontaneity.

00:52:29.320 And here's what I wrote.

00:52:31.640 So the sinister activities of organisations like the Community Relations Service fit into

00:52:36.340 a wider pattern of manipulation of public opinion in the West, especially in response

00:52:40.920 to the more violent negative effects of mass migration and demographic change.

00:52:44.840 Back in 29, the website Middle East Eye reported on a form of government planning dubbed controlled

00:52:51.480 spontaneity in the UK, which had been devised specifically in preparation for terrorist attacks.

00:52:57.320 The basic idea behind controlled spontaneity is for the government to shape and direct public

00:53:01.540 opinion and emotion in ways that prevent disorder when an atrocity occurs.

00:53:06.380 This includes everything from pre-selecting hashtags and images to circulate on social media

00:53:10.660 to encourage members of the victims' families to make public statements disavowing hatred

00:53:15.180 and staging apparently unprompted gestures of love and support at the site of the incident,

00:53:20.640 such as people handing out flowers or posters with saccharine messages on them.

00:53:25.120 Or breaking out into spontaneous performances of Oasis.

00:53:28.380 Exactly, yes, exactly.

00:53:29.880 Which just happened to be a woman who was an actor. 0.99

00:53:32.580 Yeah.

00:53:33.300 The thing I hate about all of that, though, is that essentially what it's saying to the

00:53:36.780 community that has committed the atrocity is you don't have to change.

00:53:41.500 That's the real issue.

00:53:42.520 Because the social function of this is a kind of broad-scale negotiation that instructs the

00:53:49.560 inferior community that has much smaller numbers and lives in the country at the pleasure of 0.99

00:53:54.580 the majority community how to live with them, right? 0.99

00:53:58.300 And what the government is doing here is artificially inserting itself into this cultural negotiation

00:54:04.440 and preventing the corrective that needs to occur.

00:54:07.980 Now, I'm not saying it's just or good or liberal or anything like that, but I think it is very

00:54:13.540 human.

00:54:14.220 And I think that this is, honestly, a deeply artificial state of affairs.

00:54:19.480 See, for me, it's far worse than that.

00:54:22.440 It's showing that the government go into this, go into the mass migration with the knowledge

00:54:28.580 and understanding that these people will, by their presence, end up committing atrocities.

00:54:34.580 Our job as the government is not to prevent them committing atrocities, only to manage perception

00:54:41.000 after it's happened.

00:54:43.880 But also, you can see how the doctrine of human rights has been morphed from the people against

00:54:50.200 the state to the minority against the majority, right?

00:54:53.660 The entire point of the doctrine of human rights now is to protect minority rights from 1.00

00:54:58.660 the interests of the majority.

00:55:01.060 I will never forgive John Stuart Mill for coining the tyranny of the majority.

00:55:05.100 But what's interesting is the tyranny of the majority.

00:55:09.380 The tyranny of the majority is justice.

00:55:12.860 The tyranny of the majority is seeking the truth about crime, right?

00:55:18.120 I mean, that's an interesting redefinition, isn't it?

00:55:21.520 Also, the demand that, oh, you live conformable to our rules and our society.

00:55:26.640 Yeah, if you consider that tyranny, go home.

00:55:30.640 Well, quite.

00:55:31.520 So, I mean, once you actually know what to look for, you see recognizable elements of

00:55:37.300 controlled spontaneity everywhere, basically in every Western country.

00:55:41.140 So, you know, you'll see it with the attacks on Christmas markets in Berlin, in Germany.

00:55:48.220 You'll see it with the Bataclan.

00:55:49.920 There was similar stuff.

00:55:50.880 There was stuff to do with Charlie Hebdo.

00:55:54.860 There was the Nottingham murders as well.

00:55:57.500 And even the Christchurch mosque shootings, Brenton Town in New Zealand.

00:56:03.440 You know, it's like it's a playbook.

00:56:06.000 It's like it's a playbook that just keeps being deployed by Western governments.

00:56:12.140 Like they, and I mean, I'm sure you know as well what they've done since the pandemic

00:56:16.280 is they've drawn on the evidence of the pandemic, too, on the massive amounts of behavioral data

00:56:21.560 that they have from the pandemic to understand how they can nudge people in particular directions,

00:56:27.180 what they can expect people's responses to be to particular government initiatives.

00:56:32.180 I mean, it's deeply, it's deeply, deeply sinister.

00:56:35.020 It's deeply sinister.

00:56:36.260 And more people need to know about it, of course.

00:56:39.860 But here's my conclusion from the piece I wrote, or it was for Human Events in 2023.

00:56:46.180 Our governments, as a matter of course, manipulate us to prevent us from grasping the realities

00:56:50.840 of the problems we face.

00:56:53.180 They have their script and they want us to keep reading from it.

00:56:56.320 If we do that, our fate is assured.

00:56:58.440 There are lots of comments, so in the interest of time, I'm just going to go through quickly.

00:57:05.480 Russian says, I have compassion for every human being.

00:57:08.920 Son's father.

00:57:09.980 Literally the heat map.

00:57:11.260 Yeah.

00:57:11.720 That's a great point.

00:57:12.420 The heat map explains so much.

00:57:13.940 It really does.

00:57:15.180 Christian forgiveness does not mean forgoing punishment.

00:57:17.300 Nope.

00:57:17.820 I actually saw a sword, an executioner sword from the 1600s going around on Twitter.

00:57:23.240 In Latin, it's written on it, you know, I send this sinner to heaven or something like

00:57:27.400 that.

00:57:28.820 Bald Eagle points out that self-defense does not apply because there was zero lethal force

00:57:32.580 from one side, so it negates the legal use of lethal force and defense.

00:57:36.960 And Akral says, Wren is wrong in this case.

00:57:39.300 Tim Pool always supports the rights of self-defense.

00:57:41.100 It's not always popular to do so.

00:57:42.540 I would urge him to look up what Tim Pool said about Carl Rittenhouse.

00:57:46.420 I'll have to look that up.

00:57:47.280 I didn't realize Tim was against Carl Rittenhouse.

00:57:49.900 Yeah, I believe very much he was.

00:57:53.160 Yeah, I do.

00:57:54.100 Anyway, let's move on.

00:57:55.880 So, in Britain at the moment, there is a profound understanding that is boiling to the surface

00:58:04.700 and is slowly being revealed to our political class that they don't know why men don't feel

00:58:12.680 enfranchised in the society that we have.

00:58:15.120 And this was brought to a head with the show Adolescence, which is based on several different

00:58:25.580 events, and so it's not really that important which events it's based on because they consider

00:58:30.660 it to be an amalgamation of events.

00:58:32.500 But the narrative around adolescence is that a young man is radicalized by Andrew Tate and

00:58:38.640 the Manosphere into murdering a young girl.

00:58:41.120 But the thing is, a lot of people have...

00:58:44.580 Have you guys watched Adolescence?

00:58:46.000 No.

00:58:46.340 I refuse.

00:58:47.080 I refuse.

00:58:47.600 That's not what the text shows.

00:58:50.080 That's not what the story shows.

00:58:51.440 What the story shows is a woman begins cyberbullying a young...

00:58:55.180 Well, a girl.

00:58:56.260 Begins getting a group of her friends together, cyberbullies a young man, ritually humiliates

00:59:01.660 him on Instagram, and then he goes to confront her.

00:59:04.780 She pushes him to the floor. 0.93

00:59:05.860 He gets up and then stabs her to death, right?

00:59:07.720 So it's not the same story that we're being shown from the media.

00:59:12.700 But this is being treated as if it doesn't matter, and then the father in the last episode

00:59:19.460 is struggling to understand why this has happened.

00:59:21.860 Well, a lot of people are, and they're all trying to figure out exactly what the problem

00:59:25.960 is here.

00:59:26.720 It's difficult to watch it and not come away from it with sympathy for the boy who murdered

00:59:32.080 the girl, because he is trapped in this feminine-dominated system where he is... 0.99

00:59:38.080 They show that the school is terrible. 0.98

00:59:40.840 It's run by absolute slackers.

00:59:43.480 There's a police officer investigating this, and he comes away from it going, I hate this 0.94

00:59:47.120 school.

00:59:47.820 I hate this system.

00:59:49.140 The young boy is placed in, not a prison, but they could only find space in a mental institution

00:59:55.800 or something.

00:59:57.220 And so when he's processed by the woman who's the psychiatrist, she's talking to one of

01:00:03.860 the guys, and he's like, yeah, I hate my job.

01:00:05.220 I hate this.

01:00:06.400 I hate where I am.

01:00:07.240 All you see is hate for the civilization that they live in.

01:00:11.060 And it's all the final phase of the Blairite paradigm.

01:00:15.420 Everything is terrible.

01:00:16.640 Nobody knows anything.

01:00:17.900 Nobody knows why they're doing what they're doing.

01:00:19.480 And it's causing, apparently, young men to go mental.

01:00:23.540 And so the media class who are so eager for people to watch this, do you reckon they're

01:00:27.860 facing some cognitive dissonance, or do they just think that depicting these men as not

01:00:32.820 liking the end of history is enough to condemn them by?

01:00:36.080 Well, what's interesting is that the young boy actively rejects Andrew Tate and the Manosphere

01:00:41.180 in the show, right?

01:00:43.600 The psychiatrist is trying to put on him the feminist media narrative of, well, this is Andrew

01:00:49.340 Tate.

01:00:49.480 He's like, no, I don't believe in all that stuff.

01:00:51.280 Like, they bring up the 80-20 thing, where 80% of the women want 20% of the men.

01:00:56.460 Hypergamy.

01:00:57.040 Yeah, hypergamy.

01:00:57.860 And the boy rejects that.

01:00:59.460 He says, no, I don't think that's true.

01:01:01.300 And he says he's not into the Andrew Tate Manosphere.

01:01:04.300 So what this was, was him being bullied and, like, essentially an extreme reaction to it.

01:01:09.840 And in the show, what you're shown is the kids in the school don't cooperate with the

01:01:13.300 cops because they feel complicit in the murder.

01:01:16.500 Because they know they were bullying him and driving him to the edge.

01:01:19.540 And so when he confronts her finally, they feel that they're part of the issue, right?

01:01:24.660 And again, like, honestly, I recommend watching it.

01:01:27.560 Like, but don't watch it in the way that they're trying to make you watch it, trying to spin

01:01:31.640 the narrative to it.

01:01:32.900 Actually, just watch what you're seeing.

01:01:34.740 And you realize that, I mean, I don't even know if the authors of the piece understand

01:01:39.500 what they've put to film.

01:01:41.260 I always wonder why shows like this end up having those extra readings that you can have

01:01:46.700 that are actually plainly there in the text and not even subtext.

01:01:50.280 And I wonder if it's just cognitive dissonance.

01:01:53.400 I wonder maybe Stephen Graham 4D chess, question mark?

01:01:57.220 Maybe.

01:01:57.920 Probably not.

01:01:59.480 Or I would.

01:01:59.700 Well, I mean, he's worked with Hope Not Hate, hasn't he?

01:02:02.040 Yes.

01:02:02.340 Yeah, so it's not that he's based or something.

01:02:04.580 So I wonder if it's just that writers are always taught that, oh, you need to make even

01:02:08.780 your villains nuanced and they go overboard in making them nuanced to the point where they

01:02:14.060 accidentally make them compelling and sympathetic.

01:02:17.640 I don't know.

01:02:18.260 I mean, the thing is, it's difficult to portray our current civilization with any great amount

01:02:22.820 of sympathy, right?

01:02:24.120 That's true.

01:02:24.580 Everything is bad and they know it's bad.

01:02:27.240 And so the struggle that our political class has had is to try and explain why we should

01:02:34.880 continue down this road.

01:02:36.620 Because what adolescence is saying is everything about this is wrong and needs to be changed,

01:02:41.140 right?

01:02:41.320 The school is terrible.

01:02:42.740 The teachers are terrible.

01:02:44.340 The way the children behave is terrible.

01:02:46.280 The lack of rules that they live under is terrible.

01:02:48.980 Their access to social media is terrible.

01:02:51.100 All of these things are terrible.

01:02:53.700 And the people who would normally set the order in society, the fathers, it's the boy's 0.70

01:02:58.980 father, Jamie's father, who is left struggling to go, well, why did I, how did I go wrong?

01:03:03.780 But it's not his fault that he, that things went wrong.

01:03:06.600 He is shown in the thing to be the most doting and affectionate father, right?

01:03:11.160 He instantly believes his son.

01:03:12.740 When his son says, I didn't do it, he goes, that's fine then, son.

01:03:14.920 We'll be okay.

01:03:16.360 And when it's shown on CCTV that he did do it, the father is of course devastated, but

01:03:21.180 all of the institutions are set up to withdraw his parental authority as a father.

01:03:27.080 And so the father is left at the end one, just on his son's bed, just crying, what could

01:03:31.120 I have done differently?

01:03:32.260 And the answer is, he couldn't.

01:03:34.420 He was as good a father as could be expected.

01:03:37.660 And so you see him starting to lose his marbles.

01:03:40.760 And it's like, okay, but what adolescence is doing is condemning our entire civilization,

01:03:44.260 returning to an outright abject patriarchy would be better for everyone involved than

01:03:50.520 what adolescence is showing in modern Britain.

01:03:53.500 And it's kind of crazy how I think that what they feel...

01:03:56.860 See, I wonder actually whether they actually think that the system is a patriarchy, that

01:04:02.900 what they're actually depicting is a patriarchy.

01:04:05.760 I don't think they do.

01:04:07.540 No, no.

01:04:08.780 What I think...

01:04:09.940 How many of the authority figures depicted in the show are male or female?

01:04:14.460 And how does the show tend to depict them positively or negatively?

01:04:18.440 That'd be a good way of trying to...

01:04:19.500 Well, the show isn't actually...

01:04:22.140 I mean, a lot of them are female. 1.00

01:04:23.420 A lot of them are female. 0.95

01:04:24.520 There's that scene with the psychiatrist as well that's been doing the rounds and then...

01:04:28.420 Various teachers in the schools are women.

01:04:30.100 But the male teachers are all totally feckless, right? 1.00

01:04:34.220 They're totally useless. 1.00

01:04:35.980 And the teachers have no authority. 0.99

01:04:38.760 So like they're constantly...

01:04:39.480 You can hear them like yelling at the students for having their phones, but there's no punishment.

01:04:43.760 One of the kids back chats one of the teachers.

01:04:46.140 There's no punishment.

01:04:47.060 They tell them to say, F off.

01:04:48.280 I can't even imagine the weight of the tonnage of punishment that would have come down on me

01:04:53.520 in school from my own dad, if nothing else, if I'd told one of my teachers to F off, right?

01:04:58.720 And yet they're sure that nothing happens.

01:05:00.720 And so you've got...

01:05:01.980 The two main men in it are the police officer who has a son at that school

01:05:06.080 and the father of the boy who's...

01:05:09.320 The father of the boy who did the murder.

01:05:11.300 And they're both quite sympathetic and they both essentially come to the same conclusion 0.98

01:05:15.080 that this system sucks and is bad, right? 0.97

01:05:18.300 And there's so much going on as well. 0.99

01:05:20.220 Like in the police officer's father, son, when he goes to the school,

01:05:25.680 he's trying to figure out why the kids won't cooperate with him.

01:05:28.560 And he's like...

01:05:29.820 His son goes, look, dad, you don't understand the communication that is happening here.

01:05:33.960 And so he gets Instagram and shows them a bunch of the communications.

01:05:36.540 And he's like, well, they're just being friendly towards each other.

01:05:38.680 And he's like, no, look at the emojis, right?

01:05:40.680 There's loads and loads of information contained in the emojis that you don't understand

01:05:44.140 that is actually where the cyberbullying is taking place, right?

01:05:47.560 They're basically saying he's an incel and, you know, blah, blah, blah, right?

01:05:50.460 So the actual substance on that is that the narrative of adolescence about Andrew Tate and incels

01:05:59.840 is that this narrative is used as a weapon against teenage boys.

01:06:03.920 It is used to bully the boys.

01:06:06.260 He wasn't into Andrew Tate.

01:06:08.440 Their obsession with Andrew Tate and the red pill and incel and all that

01:06:11.540 is being used as a cudgel against him.

01:06:14.640 And of course, he's 13, right?

01:06:16.620 And he's 13, yeah.

01:06:17.300 I mean, how many 13-year-olds aren't incels?

01:06:20.040 Exactly.

01:06:20.600 Every 13-year-old is an incel, right? 0.53

01:06:23.300 But this is the point.

01:06:24.440 Like, the whole thing is actually the narrative that you see on the TV is actually completely

01:06:28.040 back to front.

01:06:28.560 And I think it's because what these people are, and if you look at, like, you know,

01:06:32.820 this is just an example on BBC Breakfast, right?

01:06:35.220 These are all beneficiaries of the system, right?

01:06:37.980 You have the domestic man.

01:06:39.600 You have the girl boss. 0.93

01:06:40.820 You have our foreign woman who's been put in charge of the Conservative Party. 1.00

01:06:45.340 And now they have to explain why this show is scaring them.

01:06:50.600 And they don't really know, right?

01:06:52.760 And so they have an obsession about this show.

01:06:56.240 And I'll save play the clip just because it's, like, you can see in the text there, right?

01:06:59.700 But they are genuinely upset and offended, and they keep coming back to this, that Kemi 0.76

01:07:03.500 Badenock has not watched this show, right?

01:07:06.140 Because for them, and the reason that Keir Starmer calls it a documentary is because it

01:07:09.660 is really very representative of modern Britain, of all of the systemic failures that we see

01:07:15.100 from the people in authority.

01:07:16.480 And they, as people in authority, it's like, they're going, well, aren't you worried that

01:07:20.840 this is going to happen?

01:07:21.440 And Kemi Badenock's just like, no, I'm going around the country talking to people.

01:07:24.200 I don't want to, I don't have to watch a Netflix show to find out what's going on.

01:07:27.380 But they keep bringing it up in a really bizarre and kind of, like, it's a tick because this

01:07:32.380 is something that sits in the back of their minds.

01:07:34.780 In their social circles, given how shielded they'll be from everything, I suppose this is

01:07:38.660 probably absorbing their information through fiction is the closest thing they have to a reality.

01:07:43.800 I mean, maybe, but that's not the, I don't think that's the thing that underpins the

01:07:48.100 issue, which is the adolescence is a direct critique of them, right?

01:07:54.700 And they don't really know how to handle it.

01:07:56.440 And what it's saying is, you have no room in your frame of reference for not only the

01:08:04.000 fathers, who are powerless to actually be able to, to do the things they used to do to

01:08:08.480 prevent young boys from going off the rails, right?

01:08:11.460 I mean, the father is completely, he has no idea, like the, the, Jamie's dad has no

01:08:16.060 idea what's going on on Instagram and the cop doesn't either.

01:08:19.320 And the boy has to explain to him, look, you don't understand this communication, right?

01:08:22.520 So the fathers are now taken out of this.

01:08:24.300 Cause I mean, previously it would have been visual communication, right?

01:08:27.740 You would have watched people dealing with one another and the father would come in with

01:08:31.120 his presence, authority and much deeper booming voice and would have settled the problem

01:08:35.080 there.

01:08:35.340 And then that's taken away.

01:08:37.000 That can't happen on the internet, right?

01:08:38.540 Especially if the fathers can't see this and don't understand it in the slightest.

01:08:42.480 And so this, this is like the fathers are like, well, where, where do we fit in, in this

01:08:46.240 paradigm?

01:08:47.040 And the answer is you don't.

01:08:49.100 And then, okay, well, what do the women, the sort of matriarchal administrators do? 1.00

01:08:55.260 Well, they don't know.

01:08:56.380 They don't know what to do with the young men who could just suddenly pull out a knife 0.77

01:08:59.280 and just stab a girl to death. 1.00

01:09:00.520 And that's a terrible consideration. 1.00

01:09:02.720 So it's like, okay, so what's the problem?

01:09:04.360 Well, the problem is the paradigm itself.

01:09:07.200 You can't point to, oh, Andrew Tate did this.

01:09:09.800 No, he didn't.

01:09:10.740 You know, Andrew Tate is a symptom of this, not the cause of this.

01:09:14.560 And so what they would have, what the adolescents has revealed to us and what they essentially

01:09:19.940 are desperately trying to avoid talking about is that they have to change.

01:09:24.740 What adolescents is demanding of them is that they have to give up their power and restore

01:09:30.300 it to fathers if they want this to be fixed.

01:09:33.180 And this is a very difficult thing for them to admit.

01:09:36.020 And this is why this is such a bugbear.

01:09:38.080 They want validation from all of the other people in their paradigm.

01:09:41.440 So, no, we don't have to change it.

01:09:42.400 We don't have to give anything up.

01:09:43.320 We weren't wrong to steal this authoritative power from fathers, were we?

01:09:48.280 And what adolescents is telling them is, yes, you were.

01:09:51.040 And this is why I'm like genuinely surprised that nobody on our side of the thing has been

01:09:56.220 watching this.

01:09:57.260 And everyone assumed, oh, this is just an attack on white men.

01:09:59.680 In a way, it's kind of a massive defense of us.

01:10:03.160 And we actually should really leverage this.

01:10:05.900 I actually did an interview for GB News that's coming out on Saturday, in which I'm saying

01:10:09.720 many of these things.

01:10:10.860 And apparently they really enjoyed it.

01:10:13.520 So we'll see how that goes if they ever actually release this.

01:10:17.380 But anyway, so the point is people are focusing on the kind of superficial things about this.

01:10:23.000 But it shows the paucity of the condition and the quality of the discourse around this.

01:10:27.360 I mean, there are lots of memes, obviously.

01:10:29.160 It's like, why are these people so obsessed with adolescents?

01:10:32.660 You know, what's going on?

01:10:34.520 Why are they making me watch adolescents?

01:10:36.760 You know, what's the charge?

01:10:38.200 Not watching adolescents, right?

01:10:40.600 What are you in for?

01:10:41.480 I didn't watch adolescents.

01:10:42.680 All right.

01:10:42.880 This is all totally true.

01:10:44.800 But there are also those people.

01:10:49.000 This was from the Telegraph, but it's on Yahoo for some reason.

01:10:51.200 So, you know, menopausal women are just like, okay, yeah, good point. 1.00

01:10:55.720 I actually don't know what any of this means.

01:10:57.900 Like Suzanne Moore here, I don't know what fatherhood is, because I don't know what dads

01:11:01.660 actually do.

01:11:02.520 And obviously, you see the adolescents.

01:11:04.220 You know, but you've spent decades railing against men.

01:11:06.840 You know exactly what you think fatherhood is.

01:11:10.220 It's incredibly disingenuous.

01:11:12.420 But I wouldn't expect anything else from Susan Moore.

01:11:14.180 What's her relationship with her father like?

01:11:16.440 Well, she was raising my single mother.

01:11:18.220 Oh, well, that's some pictures.

01:11:19.600 She says in the piece.

01:11:21.200 That's in my shot.

01:11:23.560 Oh, my goodness.

01:11:25.500 But she literally says, you know, well, you know, and it's all framed around adolescents,

01:11:30.500 because this is the brain worm they have all got in their heads, because they don't

01:11:34.280 understand what this is about.

01:11:36.840 Because the mother and the father, they're very good parents.

01:11:40.040 So how could a young boy turn into a murderer?

01:11:42.720 Well, because actually, there's a lot more on the other side.

01:11:46.940 He's actually the victim of what's happened.

01:11:48.780 I mean, I suppose I haven't, I obviously haven't watched it.

01:11:51.560 But it sounds to me like perhaps there's an angle to say, well, is the father a good father?

01:11:57.820 Oh, yeah.

01:11:58.120 Is he, is he, is he too much of a, is he too feminine in his relationship?

01:12:02.460 Very masculine.

01:12:03.400 Is he?

01:12:03.780 Yeah, yeah.

01:12:04.160 No, no, no, this is.

01:12:05.480 So what's great is the father, as you can see, in fact, very, very masculine, very chunky

01:12:11.780 dude.

01:12:12.280 Right.

01:12:12.440 And in the, in the final episode, after the kid's been sent to wherever he's been sent,

01:12:18.840 he was juvenile offenders or whatever it is, the other people in their neighborhood are

01:12:23.300 harassing them.

01:12:24.180 And like, you know, some kid's spraying nonce on his van and he finds the kids following

01:12:29.020 them.

01:12:29.220 They go to the shop to, to get it off and he finds it and he's just like throwing these

01:12:33.500 kids around.

01:12:34.020 Like, like, but it's, it's like, no, no, but you can, you can totally see where.

01:12:39.320 Choke slams a small child. 1.00

01:12:40.900 No, no, no.

01:12:41.360 They're 17, right?

01:12:42.200 They're 17.

01:12:42.360 Oh, okay.

01:12:42.840 All right.

01:12:43.420 So they're teenage boys who are playing up and like, well, we can just harass this guy

01:12:47.740 because this is a big, you know, drama on the estate.

01:12:51.640 You know, no one's going to come to his defense.

01:12:53.100 And so he's just like, you know, throwing them around and like, you can see he's moments

01:12:57.060 away from just pummeling the hell out of them.

01:12:58.820 And honestly, I'd be the same. 1.00

01:13:00.380 I'd be the same if these little shits were like, you know. 1.00

01:13:04.600 Doing that. 1.00

01:13:05.080 So the father is completely masculine, right?

01:13:07.560 He's, and, and what it's showing is that he's trapped in a system where he can't exercise

01:13:12.100 those masculine urges.

01:13:13.300 Well, I suppose, I suppose, because more broadly speaking, his masculine role ends with him.

01:13:19.900 There's no extension.

01:13:21.000 It's not, um, doesn't spread out into the wider community.

01:13:24.000 His kind of masculine power as father isn't invested in the teachers.

01:13:27.600 And yeah, that's exactly right.

01:13:29.380 And so it shows that in this, in this feminine system, there is no role for the father and 1.00

01:13:34.940 the father can't be expected to do the things that fathers used to do.

01:13:39.200 And so you get Suzanne Moore going, well, I mean, this is about adolescence, isn't it?

01:13:42.920 This is about the manosphere and their role in role models and knife crime and all this.

01:13:48.520 And then she starts getting onto the blight of fatherlessness.

01:13:50.780 And it's like, okay, but that's not what adolescence shows.

01:13:53.820 He has a father.

01:13:54.820 He's got a very happy and normal functioning family, right?

01:13:58.960 And so she's just going on about what, you know, but in adolescence, he didn't have a

01:14:04.080 fatherless family.

01:14:05.240 So what's going on?

01:14:06.340 Well, what's interesting about that, I suppose, is that, you know, when we think about knife

01:14:09.520 crime in the UK, we tend to think about a particular community.

01:14:12.980 Yeah.

01:14:13.140 And they do tend to have a large proportion of fatherlessness.

01:14:17.380 And that's generally put forward as the explanation for the knife crime.

01:14:21.540 And that's where she goes with this.

01:14:23.100 She ends up going, well, why are there so many single mothers in Britain? 0.99

01:14:27.440 Why don't men want to be fathers? 0.96

01:14:29.100 Why isn't there any stigma?

01:14:30.380 That would be racist, Suzanne, basically, is the reason. 1.00

01:14:33.300 You would complain that that was racist if we were to stigmatize that.

01:14:37.260 And so she ends up going on saying, well, look, I mean, maybe we're just expecting too

01:14:41.560 much of one another.

01:14:42.140 It's like, really, really, like all of, for all of humanity's history, we've had mothers

01:14:47.260 and fathers looking after their children and everything was fine.

01:14:50.240 And we didn't have to worry about a spate of knife crimes.

01:14:52.480 Suddenly we arrive in the feminine Blairite system and everyone's like, well, how can we 0.94

01:14:56.000 stop boys killing women?

01:14:57.420 You know, it's like, yeah, we didn't have to worry about this actually.

01:15:00.780 And so you've got Suzanne's total bewilderment. 0.86

01:15:03.760 And this entire article is just her asking the same question.

01:15:07.380 It's like, what do men do?

01:15:08.440 What do men do? 0.95

01:15:09.060 What do men do? 0.95

01:15:09.500 It's like, you don't know.

01:15:10.340 And you can't, without men's ability to exercise their social power over their sons, 1.00

01:15:15.800 you are going to be perennially in this position where you're worried that young men will just

01:15:19.760 start murdering young women, right? 0.99

01:15:21.640 It is, it is the authority of the father that prevents this. 0.95

01:15:25.120 And when you rescind this authority, okay, well, you've opened up Pandora's box.

01:15:31.500 You've opened up a whole can of worms.

01:15:33.320 Who knows what the future looks like for you?

01:15:35.040 I'm not surprised you're afraid.

01:15:36.420 And then you've got the other one, the other side of this, which is Zoe Strimple.

01:15:39.280 Again, both in the Telegraph, right?

01:15:41.020 Young white men do have problems, but they need to man up. 0.93

01:15:42.900 I knew her at Cambridge. 0.75

01:15:45.020 Oh God.

01:15:45.840 I'm sorry to hear that.

01:15:46.780 Yeah.

01:15:47.380 So she, her perspective is just, I mean, it's far worse than Suzanne.

01:15:54.520 I don't think anybody is.

01:15:56.400 It's far worse than Suzanne was because hers is just, well, young women were oppressed for 1.00

01:16:02.220 all of human history.

01:16:03.680 And so now men are being oppressed by the matriarchy. 1.00

01:16:06.320 Don't they just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps? 0.82

01:16:08.880 Don't they just need to man up and deal with it?

01:16:11.100 And it's like, okay, but.

01:16:12.400 Oh, late. 0.96

01:16:12.760 So incredibly lazy and disingenuous. 0.95

01:16:15.140 It's not just incredibly lazy and disingenuous. 0.70

01:16:17.260 I mean, it is both of those things, of course.

01:16:19.100 Yeah.

01:16:19.600 It's more than that, though.

01:16:22.120 What it is, is completely heartless, which is saying, no, yeah, I know you've got problems,

01:16:26.840 but tough.

01:16:28.100 These are the problems that the feminine order is going to impose on you. 1.00

01:16:32.120 And you just have to deal with that.

01:16:34.800 And it's like, okay, well, look, didn't you, didn't you think that like this, that there

01:16:41.180 is, there is, there is going to come a time where young men say, yeah, I agree.

01:16:46.940 These are the problems that the feminine order has put upon me. 1.00

01:16:49.700 And it's completely unsympathetic to that.

01:16:52.180 And so maybe I am exactly as radically right wing as you think I might be.

01:16:56.800 And we're already seeing that with the zoomers, especially in the United States, where they're 1.00

01:17:00.960 more far right than their grandfathers.

01:17:03.460 So yeah, this is what you're going to create is a bunch of young men like, no, I need my 0.96

01:17:07.740 dad to be in charge.

01:17:09.200 That's what they're asking.

01:17:10.360 I want my dad to have the authority.

01:17:12.680 I don't want the government to have the authority.

01:17:14.440 I don't want some school mom to have the authority. 1.00

01:17:16.380 I don't want to be processed by some young, by some woman, some childless middle-aged woman 1.00

01:17:21.040 who's going to sit there and interrogate me as if I'm a young girl, because I'm not.

01:17:25.000 You don't understand me.

01:17:26.080 This system is set up to crush me.

01:17:28.180 They will go this far.

01:17:29.580 And if your only response is, well, you just man up.

01:17:32.600 Oh, they will.

01:17:33.740 They absolutely will.

01:17:34.700 And you're not going to like the way that looks.

01:17:36.900 That's going to, the Zuma Reich will come if this is your attitude. 0.79

01:17:41.880 And what does that even mean?

01:17:42.860 The truth is that masculinity has always been in crisis.

01:17:47.360 Well, she does actually go on.

01:17:48.620 It sounds clever.

01:17:49.440 Yeah.

01:17:49.680 She says, well, this has always been the case with masculinity.

01:17:52.460 But I mean, obviously that's not always been the case.

01:17:54.420 Well, it's like, it's like, you know, men have always been this fragile, right? 0.96

01:17:58.380 It's like the Crusades, you know, like that was penis anxiety, right? 0.98

01:18:03.080 Yeah. 0.98

01:18:03.360 Yeah.

01:18:03.640 Clearly.

01:18:04.340 World War II.

01:18:05.060 Colonization.

01:18:05.720 We were just jealous.

01:18:06.960 Yeah. 0.99

01:18:07.160 Penis anxiety. 0.99

01:18:07.720 I mean, it's just like, like the small penis theory of history. 1.00

01:18:10.640 Vladimir Putin has a small penis. 1.00

01:18:12.120 Trump has a small penis. 1.00

01:18:13.900 Hitler, you know, had an obsession with his niece and, you know, strange sexual things. 1.00

01:18:19.460 I mean, it's just like, it's the worst kind of debased Freudianism, I think, is what it 0.98

01:18:24.920 actually is, in part, is it's like this kind of crap that people say at the dinner table 0.99

01:18:30.120 at a dinner party, where they're like, they have this, you know, stupid theory of history. 0.99

01:18:34.300 I mean, they've never thought through, they couldn't tell you where they got it. 0.99

01:18:38.260 It's just been given to them by cultural osmosis.

01:18:40.400 And they think they're ever so clever.

01:18:42.160 And doing an MA in gender studies at Cambridge.

01:18:45.120 The thing is, she literally just comes out and says, no, young men should be oppressed

01:18:49.840 and we're going to oppress them.

01:18:50.940 She says, the idea that if we don't give them all a big cultural and social hug, they'll

01:18:54.520 commit violence and become arsonists and misogynists isn't good enough.

01:18:58.220 Why can't we expect them to become decent, hardworking people, even in tough circumstances?

01:19:02.800 So, right, just totally unsympathetic.

01:19:05.840 It's like, okay, that's fine.

01:19:07.240 Trust me, they're not going to live with this.

01:19:09.900 You know, they're going to go very far right.

01:19:13.000 This is a woman who's forgotten that women only have rights because men let them. 1.00

01:19:18.160 This is the kind of opinion that you're going to end up getting in response.

01:19:21.980 But it's a fact.

01:19:24.260 What are rights other than things, privileges that have been won for you through force?

01:19:29.500 Sure.

01:19:29.880 Who enforces force?

01:19:31.680 But the point being...

01:19:33.180 Starship Troopers mode, I think.

01:19:34.600 Mr. Radchak mode.

01:19:36.120 The point being, they have no idea why this is something in the back of their mind.

01:19:40.300 They can't shake it.

01:19:41.140 They're completely unsympathetic to the problems that they've created.

01:19:44.800 And they will completely confuse all sides of the issue.

01:19:48.900 Anything that they think is the manosphere can be completely merged into the same thing.

01:19:57.100 Right?

01:19:57.560 I see them everywhere.

01:19:58.660 Yeah.

01:19:58.820 For some reason on The National, I was considered to be an example of a pickup artist.

01:20:05.900 You wrote that book, The Game, didn't you?

01:20:08.220 Peacocking?

01:20:09.020 That was actually...

01:20:09.980 The National Mail, that was Carl.

01:20:11.540 That was actually brought up.

01:20:12.880 Leo Strauss or Neil Strauss?

01:20:14.960 Right?

01:20:15.500 So for some reason, he comes up just before me.

01:20:18.220 Of course.

01:20:18.860 And I'm just like, okay, whatever.

01:20:21.980 But I had a bit of a back and forth on Twitter with the author of this.

01:20:24.940 And she was just completely contemptuous in the response.

01:20:29.540 And it was the most remarkable kind of mixing up of things.

01:20:34.620 Because, of course, you know, I've never been a pickup artist.

01:20:38.540 I've never made any sort of content regarding it.

01:20:40.860 I don't look like I'm looks-maxing.

01:20:44.260 I look like I'm a tired, married dad who just wants the world to be a little better than it was yesterday.

01:20:51.040 I'm not one of these...

01:20:51.860 Don't put yourselves down so much, Carl.

01:20:53.880 I appreciate that.

01:20:55.000 But, like, unironically, like, this is nonsense.

01:20:58.320 And they don't know what they're doing.

01:21:00.380 That's the thing.

01:21:01.100 They have no knowledge of the thing that they're creating underneath their order.

01:21:06.820 And this is what it all comes back to with adolescence.

01:21:11.920 They are afraid that they are breeding a monster, which they are.

01:21:17.360 Oh, just you as a pickup artist, in my mind, I've got the perfect...

01:21:22.720 I know what your opening line would be in the club.

01:21:26.300 She'd be standing there, minding her own business.

01:21:29.400 You'd lean in.

01:21:30.620 Have you ever read Lock?

01:21:32.880 No, I'd say that deep level.

01:21:34.240 What am I?

01:21:34.920 Oh, okay.

01:21:35.720 Anyway, this, I think, underpins all of this.

01:21:43.340 And it is why they are so obsessed with adolescence.

01:21:46.480 I think they know that they're breeding a monster.

01:21:48.800 And the ones...

01:21:49.860 I haven't seen any of them being sympathetic to that yet.

01:21:53.500 And I think that they're really worried that this is going to come back and bite them in the rear.

01:21:59.200 All right, I think we've got a few rumble rants from that, if you want to go for it.

01:22:02.440 I think it's a Hewitt onwards.

01:22:04.540 50% of the country don't have Netflix subscriptions.

01:22:07.920 It's easy to propagandize something that a significant chunk of the population hasn't seen.

01:22:11.800 That's true, but they're going to make it so that it's freely available.

01:22:15.580 So there will be...

01:22:17.420 Because...

01:22:17.860 But the thing is, I'm actually completely in favor of it.

01:22:20.160 Because there is...

01:22:21.000 Honestly, go and watch it.

01:22:21.940 There is such a good argument that this is actually a deeply right-wing production.

01:22:26.200 And they just didn't realize it.

01:22:27.700 The question, though, is, of course, is whether people are going to get a kind of unfiltered access to it.

01:22:33.060 Or whether they will then have their teachers sit down and say, have you been watching Andrew Tate?

01:22:37.600 Are you a...

01:22:38.700 Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

01:22:39.300 Whether they'll overlay the kind of interpretation on top, which I would imagine they will.

01:22:43.120 Of course they will, yeah.

01:22:43.880 Of course they will.

01:22:45.100 J.M. Denton says,

01:22:45.980 The void from the cult of COVID and Floyd has drifted now that all that energy is in promoting adolescence.

01:22:52.300 Yes, but there is...

01:22:53.540 Adolescence speaks to something deeper in their minds.

01:22:57.040 OPHUK says,

01:22:57.720 Libtards may be just so afraid of this show because they've indoctrinated their own kids into feral little cultists 1.00

01:23:02.520 who might stab someone for misgendering their gerbil or cracking a joke at gratis expense.

01:23:06.540 No, that's not it.

01:23:07.240 They're worried that something outside of their control will spring up.

01:23:09.960 And it will be an authentic sort of Thermidorian reaction with right-wing youth

01:23:16.220 where they just overthrow them and just do whatever the hell they want.

01:23:18.860 Well, it's like even, you know, like a film like Joker, you know, the way that Joker...

01:23:23.620 Exactly.

01:23:24.420 ...became something else. 0.52

01:23:25.380 And so they had to make Joker foliadeur where Joker gets raped in prison.

01:23:29.880 Yeah, yeah.

01:23:30.200 What's going to happen in adolescence too?

01:23:32.220 No, no, but it's the same fear that Joker caused.

01:23:34.340 Because remember in 2019 when Joker came out,

01:23:36.140 before he was in that, they're like, oh my God, this is an incel movie.

01:23:38.220 It's going to inspire incel terrorism. 0.98

01:23:40.200 They were literally saying, well, that's...

01:23:41.880 Adolescence is Joker made from their perspective.

01:23:45.360 Whereas Joker is the story told from the man's perspective.

01:23:49.680 Adolescence is told from the other perspective.

01:23:51.820 That's a great, great comparison.

01:23:55.020 The Engaged View says,

01:23:56.880 Anyone who has seen Shona Craven in person knows the only way

01:23:59.340 Kyle is picking her up with a crane.

01:24:00.620 Well, I don't...

01:24:01.260 I'm not making personal attacks.

01:24:04.100 And OPSUK says,

01:24:05.280 Woman husbandry and other pimp knowledge. 0.97

01:24:07.260 Kyle Benjamin, number one eBay bestseller.

01:24:08.860 Open in 1999.

01:24:10.320 Well, I keep missing out on some money here, clearly.

01:24:13.780 There you go.

01:24:14.520 Let's go through the video comments while we've still got some time then.

01:24:17.040 Today, I will sign an executive order requiring every American to subscribe to Wordsmith Productions

01:24:26.460 on Subscribestar and Patreon.

01:24:28.640 They're good guys, the very best guys, and they deserve your support.

01:24:34.620 Make writing great again.

01:24:35.820 You heard the God Emperor.

01:24:38.320 Follow us on Patreon and Twitter at Wordsmith Productions.

01:24:40.700 All for business inquiries.

01:24:41.860 Contact us at staff at wordsmithproductions.co.uk

01:24:44.740 There you go, folks.

01:24:47.240 You heard the man.

01:24:47.820 Good morning, Lotus Eaters.

01:24:51.640 I wanted to focus more of this video toward the mountains I saw snow showing up to Peekaboo

01:24:56.020 Lake.

01:24:56.740 Once you trudge through the snow to the top of the mountain, through clearings in the

01:25:00.180 trees, you could see the snow-capped peaks on nearby ridges.

01:25:03.540 My picture didn't turn out so good, but you could even see glacier-covered Mount Baker

01:25:07.220 to the north.

01:25:08.260 I plan on climbing all these mountains, excluding Baker, this summer and fall after the snow is

01:25:12.960 mostly melted.

01:25:14.140 Finally making it down to the lake, I had a quick lunch and dragged myself back to the

01:25:17.720 truck.

01:25:18.440 Hope you guys are having a good week so far.

01:25:20.820 I'm good, man, but that looks like Prime Bigfoot Habitat, so be careful.

01:25:25.340 That's gorgeous, though.

01:25:26.260 That looks beautiful.

01:25:27.260 It does.

01:25:28.180 I asked ChatGPT to render the robo-waifu in the style of Studio Ghibli, and the results

01:25:32.980 are endearing.

01:25:34.200 The AI even wanted to make a comic book page, so I let it.

01:25:37.760 It seems capable of coming up with simple stories, but I did not have any luck with comic

01:25:42.200 pages featuring more than one subject.

01:25:46.000 I mean, to be fair, that AI stuff is really impressive at the moment.

01:25:49.260 Yeah.

01:25:50.000 Well, that Trump video, the Trump-arbe, I mean, that's, yeah.

01:25:53.440 Yeah, it's incredible.

01:25:56.380 The adolescence nonsense, I find myself thinking about the movie Reefer Madness.

01:26:01.780 It's a comedy about schools showing a bunch of parents this government-made PSA about the

01:26:07.780 dangers of marijuana. 0.95

01:26:08.940 Basically, it says it's going to turn your kids into sex-crazed, criminal, super-muted 0.99

01:26:13.740 cannibals, where it's a lie. 0.98

01:26:16.240 And then, you know, the parents run amok and have a moral panic and, you know, do mass

01:26:20.540 book burnings and call for censorship.

01:26:22.920 Ironic that they're supposed to be attacking conservatives in that movie, but look at what's

01:26:26.720 happened in England.

01:26:27.780 It doesn't seem like they're the ones that are causing this problem.

01:26:33.060 True.

01:26:33.740 I mean, I've not watched that.

01:26:34.980 Conservatives don't have the cultural power to enact a moral panic.

01:26:38.340 Looks nice, too.

01:27:01.220 And that's what I need, as well.

01:27:03.540 It's not just girls.

01:27:04.400 All right, then.

01:27:06.760 Let's go through some of the written comments.

01:27:08.520 Yeah.

01:27:10.220 Omar says, Labour have obviously gotten tired of not getting that cut.

01:27:14.720 Drug and human trafficking isn't the problem, but we've got a tax black hole to fill.

01:27:19.000 Yeah, that's a good point.

01:27:19.660 It's true.

01:27:20.100 Honestly, it's probably economic.

01:27:21.820 What was it, a £20 billion black hole?

01:27:24.900 £22 billion.

01:27:26.240 Sorry, sorry.

01:27:27.000 So we're going to have to do a lot more drug and human trafficking.

01:27:29.280 Yeah.

01:27:31.940 Stuart says, there are no drug-running gangs.

01:27:34.560 Please stop mislabeling drug-running brain surgeons, neuroscientists, and professors.

01:27:38.280 Diversity is their strength.

01:27:39.720 Roman Observer says, so Britain having so many Turkish barbers is depriving Turkey of cultural

01:27:44.340 heritage.

01:27:45.220 Yeah, how many...

01:27:45.980 I mean, it would if they weren't all Kurds. 1.00

01:27:47.600 Yeah, I was going to say, you know, Turkey surely doesn't have this many.

01:27:51.900 Fodder says, I've been working for a decade as an engineer, barely spend money other than

01:27:55.620 the essentials, and I have no chance of starting my own business yet.

01:27:57.960 These people, fresh off the boat, can open a business in every other shop.

01:28:01.180 Yeah, the secret ingredient is crime.

01:28:05.100 Matt says, what would happen if halal meat was banned in Britain?

01:28:09.020 Well, many of the Muslims would go home. 1.00

01:28:11.320 Things would improve overnight.

01:28:12.980 Yeah, it wouldn't take very long.

01:28:14.100 There'd also be a lot less animal cruelty going on here.

01:28:16.560 Yeah, there was that terrible story about the halal slaughter as they're playing, what

01:28:21.440 was it, a wolf, a howling wolf.

01:28:23.080 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:28:24.020 And they were just carving it up before it was even dead. 0.99

01:28:26.720 Disgusting. 0.98

01:28:27.080 It was awful. 0.92

01:28:28.660 Lars says, if the property is used for trafficking, then shouldn't they be seized?

01:28:32.500 Yeah, and if they're paid for with ill-gotten gains, shouldn't they be seized?

01:28:36.280 And if they're employing a load of illegal immigrants, shouldn't they be seized and kicked 1.00

01:28:40.820 out?

01:28:43.220 Justin says, Tim isn't on the stabber side.

01:28:45.700 He's just saying that until the case is adjudicated, we don't know all the facts.

01:28:49.460 He thinks that he should have been allowed to have a knife.

01:28:51.600 It falls under the Second Amendment, after all.

01:28:53.180 There are conflicting reports on whether the victim touched him, pushed him, or grabbed

01:28:56.220 him, which could give the stabber a self-defense argument.

01:28:58.600 Not that it was actually self-defense.

01:29:00.040 Also, he's saying that he thinks the police are overcharging the stabber, first-degree

01:29:04.580 murder.

01:29:04.900 He planned to do it.

01:29:05.840 So he thinks the stabber is likely to get off.

01:29:07.920 The father, though, sounds like he's being coerced into it.

01:29:10.400 Don't look back at anger and all that.

01:29:11.620 But, yeah, I mean, that's fair.

01:29:13.920 Like I said, I haven't watched the episode.

01:29:15.940 I don't watch anything, because I haven't got any bloody time, so I have no idea what

01:29:19.420 Tim said on it.

01:29:20.740 Devin says, not sure about how masculine or sympathetic the father in adolescence actually

01:29:24.440 is.

01:29:25.300 Could it just be that Stephen Graham has given himself a good and flattering role?

01:29:28.220 No, no.

01:29:28.640 The father is, he's the one taking responsibility for the family, right?

01:29:32.880 It's just that his authority ends at the boundaries of their house.

01:29:36.480 And then you see the system interacting with him.

01:29:40.940 And the father is just, he has, they don't extend, like you were saying, patriarchal authority.

01:29:47.980 They extend matriarchal authority. 1.00

01:29:49.900 But it's the kind of, you know, the abstract woman-centered system, rather than the family 1.00

01:29:55.260 being brought into it as well.

01:29:57.600 So, no, the father is a good example of a good father, actually.

01:30:01.120 And that's what made it quite difficult for me to watch.

01:30:03.100 So, it's just like, you can feel the impotence that the father feels in the system.

01:30:08.420 There's nothing he could have done differently, because he did everything right.

01:30:11.760 Dan says, masculinity has always been in crisis.

01:30:14.160 Sounds like we've always been at war with East Asia. 0.98

01:30:16.900 Yeah, it does.

01:30:17.700 Very much so, in fact.

01:30:19.200 And I think we're out of time there.

01:30:20.780 Yes, we are.

01:30:22.000 Well, thank you all very much for watching, and be sure to join us in about half an hour

01:30:25.520 for Lad's Hour, where Dan will be showing us a load of old adverts.

01:30:29.120 So, that should be fun.

01:30:30.260 But until then, we'll see you next week.
