The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters #1277

00:00:00.240 Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters. This is episode 1277. I am joined by Nate and Ed Dutton and today we are going to be talking about Europe's anti-Islam actions, how nothing will satisfy the reparations demanders, and how the left and the Democrats in America have really become quite dangerous and extremely unwell.

00:00:27.500 As a reminder, I'm doing a RealPolitik show right after this at three. It's going to be live, so please join me and ask any questions that you want. And I want to leave you in the capable hands of Mr. H, who is going to be talking to us about, well, his new channel, but more importantly, about what the Europeans are doing about extremist Islam. 0.82

00:00:55.960 That was a great intro. No, go check out the State of Politics. There's a channel which I run with Bo, so if you like Bo's takes, do go and check it out.

00:01:05.180 But we do need to talk about our lovely, glorious European friends. So, our European friends, our European friends.

00:01:15.100 Friends and allies, yeah. So, basically, if you haven't noticed, Europe has begun, near coincidental timing, two European places anyway, have begun clamping down on Islam. 0.78

00:01:36.120 First and foremost, this popped up into, if you're just listening, Italy began talking about banning Islamic face coverings and exploring mosque funding.

00:01:52.440 And not only that, also dropping in to see what mosques were doing. So, spot-checking mosques. 1.00

00:02:02.000 So, I wonder if they'll find any weapons in there. Or is this just a British thing now?

00:02:07.320 Are we allowed to interact?

00:02:09.460 Yes, yes.

00:02:10.140 Yeah, please.

00:02:10.620 It's you doing a lecture.

00:02:11.680 No, no, you're very encouraged to interact.

00:02:13.480 Oh, okay.

00:02:14.320 Please do interact.

00:02:15.960 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:02:16.820 Right, sure.

00:02:17.500 Have you heard about this? Have you seen this?

00:02:18.640 No, no, I haven't.

00:02:19.620 Have you not?

00:02:19.900 I've not been prepped.

00:02:20.680 Okay, well, Giorgio Malone, the Italian beast that she is, the Italian stallion, has popped up.

00:02:30.420 Hold on. Is she a trance?

00:02:32.400 No, I didn't mean like that.

00:02:34.760 The Italian stallion has popped up and basically launched this with her party, saying, yeah, like, this is the legislation we want to introduce.

00:02:43.580 They haven't actually done it yet.

00:02:44.940 But the plan is, and it's the ruling Brothers of Italy party has said, that they want to ban the burqa and niqab and body coverings in all public spaces nationwide.

00:02:56.180 And it is basically called the bill against Islamic separatism.

00:02:59.520 So, good.

00:03:01.580 You know, that's good.

00:03:02.980 I think that's a start, right?

00:03:06.480 Do we agree?

00:03:07.020 Why do you think it's good?

00:03:08.400 Why do I think?

00:03:09.240 What?

00:03:09.500 Why?

00:03:10.340 Why is it good?

00:03:11.320 Well, because it devalues Western culture.

00:03:13.100 It's a visual representation of an ideology that is reprehensible and polar opposite to what Western culture is.

00:03:27.640 Do you not agree with that?

00:03:28.920 Do you not like that?

00:03:29.480 Well, I mean, maybe, like, these women are so beautiful, like, they're so beautiful, but they know, they know, they know. 0.83

00:03:41.260 If they don't cover their faces, then, like, Italian men will just be going around being really severely sexually aroused all the time. 1.00

00:03:48.280 And they won't be able to get any work done.

00:03:49.840 And their husbands are saying, please, darling, could you just integrate into Italian culture by not covering your face?

00:03:57.320 And they're saying, they're saying, Mohammed, I would love to.

00:04:00.840 I have respect for this nation that's taken me in. 0.83

00:04:04.000 And I don't want these men to be walking around with stonking, diamond-cut erections the whole time.

00:04:09.380 And not being able to get any work done.

00:04:11.540 So I must, inshallah, I must cover my face.

00:04:16.080 Has that occurred to you, Nate?

00:04:17.240 I mean, in your bigotry.

00:04:18.660 You're in a bigotry.

00:04:20.780 Oh, oh, oh, oh, it's a symbol.

00:04:22.540 It's a symbol of anti-Western.

00:04:23.900 No, it's someone trying to make sure that Italian men are able to just get on with the day.

00:04:30.360 You know what I think?

00:04:30.900 Economy can function.

00:04:32.500 I think that's a very idealistic worldview.

00:04:34.960 Well, perhaps.

00:04:35.480 And I think, I think realism.

00:04:39.640 I think, I think, I think the realistic outlook is perhaps it's an oppressive ideology, you know.

00:04:47.160 You think Islam oppresses women? 1.00

00:04:49.460 Well, yeah, maybe.

00:04:51.940 I mean, you're, you're the resident.

00:04:53.800 Oppressed with women. 1.00

00:04:59.100 Barely said nothing about it.

00:05:00.120 I mean.

00:05:01.320 Oh, dear.

00:05:02.260 Dear, oh, dear.

00:05:02.720 So, it's a start.

00:05:05.140 It's something.

00:05:06.100 And I think, actually, the main thing, which I quite like, well, one, they're planning to fine these individuals 300 to 3000 euros, which, I mean, that's basically just taking back their tax money.

00:05:18.920 Because, of course, half these people don't work.

00:05:21.160 And that's being generous.

00:05:22.260 Half, probably significantly.

00:05:24.380 More than that.

00:05:26.080 And loads of people have come out, obviously, in opposition to this.

00:05:28.700 So, you have people going, oh, religious freedom is sacred.

00:05:34.520 I don't think this is an opposition, actually.

00:05:36.520 But it must be exercised in the open in full respect of our constitution and the principles of the Italian state, which I agree with.

00:05:42.340 I think that's good.

00:05:43.380 There have been some sort of opposition to this.

00:05:45.540 Of course, five pillars.

00:05:48.880 Oh, yes.

00:05:49.800 Yes.

00:05:50.420 I like dropping in on these people. 0.99

00:05:51.900 They're mental. 1.00

00:05:52.900 They are. 0.72

00:05:55.280 One of their editors, I think, was very open in one interview that ended up getting captured by memory, where he says that the West is Dar al-Kufr, the abode of the unbelievers.

00:06:06.620 Meaning that it is, therefore, the abode of war, suggesting that his integration plans are not really what you would hope that they would be.

00:06:17.960 It wouldn't be integration, would it?

00:06:19.260 No.

00:06:19.640 Well, it would take over more than anything.

00:06:21.440 That's not integration.

00:06:22.080 Yes.

00:06:22.920 And the expectation from Five Pillars is that eventually they're going to be running the West and eventually Islam will successfully conquer the West. 1.00

00:06:32.740 Love it.

00:06:33.140 And they're quite honest about it for the most part.

00:06:36.620 It's a marker.

00:06:37.700 I agree with that.

00:06:38.760 It's a marker of saying, I have no respect for this society.

00:06:43.440 I have no desire to integrate into this society.

00:06:46.320 I am not part of this society.

00:06:48.480 I don't even care if it offends you.

00:06:50.560 And it does offend you.

00:06:51.520 Yes.

00:06:51.720 It is offensive because it is such a cultural arrogance.

00:06:56.460 It's like in Finland, you get some foreigners that go into the public saunas and try to keep their swimming trunks on. 1.00

00:07:02.120 Right.

00:07:02.320 I can't do that.

00:07:03.620 And Finns are like, no, get them off. 1.00

00:07:05.340 Heaven forbid.

00:07:05.840 No, get them off.

00:07:06.900 And they come up with these ridiculous justifications like, oh, there might be chlorine on the swimming trunks and someone might be allergic to chlorine and the steam and whatever.

00:07:14.560 No, it's not. 0.97

00:07:15.120 It's because Finns are a bit kinky. 1.00

00:07:16.700 But that is their right. 0.88

00:07:19.500 And that is their culture. 0.52

00:07:20.640 And they like being naked.

00:07:22.660 Right.

00:07:23.140 I was guilty of it.

00:07:24.320 I once went into a smoke sauna.

00:07:26.120 Right.

00:07:26.320 And the only other person in it, and those are mixed, you see. 0.99

00:07:28.400 And the only other person in it was this woman of about 70.

00:07:30.700 But she had a very good bod and she knew it.

00:07:33.760 Right.

00:07:34.160 And I always had my trunks on and she said in Finnish, get them off.

00:07:39.160 And I did immediately.

00:07:40.780 And then she went, oh, they're joking.

00:07:41.640 By then, me and this old lady just sat there naked together and I felt I'd integrated into the culture.

00:07:51.660 And that's what we want.

00:07:52.580 That's what we want.

00:07:53.060 Well, actually, no, we don't want integration.

00:07:55.360 We'd like them all to go home.

00:07:56.560 But Italy is addressing this.

00:07:59.640 And so a statement from a member of parliament of the FDI party said this law addresses two needs.

00:08:05.800 The safety of citizens who must be able to know who they're dealing with and the need to avoid undermining women's dignity because erasing a woman's face means undermining her dignity.

00:08:14.840 Which is, I think, saying that a woman deserves a quarter of a man is slightly more offensive.

00:08:20.460 I mean, in Islam, a man is allowed to have four wives, meaning that she gets a quarter of a husband. 0.90

00:08:27.540 He's also allowed an unlimited number of property women, I would say. 1.00

00:08:32.500 That's Shia, isn't it? 1.00

00:08:34.420 No, no, no.

00:08:35.200 That's both of them.

00:08:36.120 That's both Sunni and Shia.

00:08:38.720 It's only actually the Druze who insist on monogamy. 1.00

00:08:41.480 And I think the Alawites also insist on monogamy.

00:08:43.520 But the general view of Islam is sort of quite degrading to women, even beyond the needs of a functioning patriarchy.

00:08:54.940 I'm all for the patriarchy. 0.62

00:08:56.080 You say it's degrading.

00:08:57.460 There's good research on this.

00:08:59.220 A lot of women in the studies would rather be the co-wife of a very high status man than the wife, single wife, of a low status man. 0.98

00:09:12.260 Right.

00:09:12.740 That's where the whole system of polygamy comes from. 1.00

00:09:14.720 Women are sexually attracted to high status for obvious reasons, because if the chap's got high status, he's got the good genes that attain the status. 0.96

00:09:22.920 And he's got resources that can be invested in the kids and in her and so on.

00:09:25.980 And so it's much better in that sense.

00:09:28.700 It's their free choice.

00:09:29.920 Well, I've met some of the products of polygamy, and I can tell you that the level of social damage that it causes outweighs the genetic aspect.

00:09:41.000 I'd also say we shouldn't have to deal with this in the West anyway.

00:09:44.380 We have our own culture.

00:09:45.620 We have our own customs.

00:09:46.820 And it's not something we should be dealing with, quite frankly.

00:09:49.780 The fundamental issue is that the West believes that religion is a matter of opinion.

00:09:54.260 I'm sorry, Ed.

00:09:55.840 I do apologise.

00:09:56.880 I'm just straight down the line.

00:09:59.120 How dare you?

00:10:00.000 How dare you?

00:10:00.880 It's a black and white name.

00:10:03.880 Discuss this properly.

00:10:06.460 I mean, the downside, obviously, is enormous numbers of incels.

00:10:10.740 Yes.

00:10:11.480 Which then creates a society which is violent and dangerous.

00:10:16.080 Quite.

00:10:16.360 And something has to be done with those incels.

00:10:18.020 Yes.

00:10:18.260 That's the downside.

00:10:19.080 Usually, get them directed to fight against the Christians.

00:10:21.480 Well, yeah. 0.99

00:10:21.880 Or you give them, exactly, you give them jihad, and you say to them that once you die, then you get, like, you will be in heaven with a permanent erection and 77 virgins. 0.99

00:10:29.560 72. 0.99

00:10:30.120 Let's not exaggerate, please.

00:10:31.160 72.

00:10:31.820 Yeah, exactly.

00:10:32.460 Don't overpromise.

00:10:32.860 Sorry, I apologize.

00:10:33.680 Don't overpromise.

00:10:34.640 Don't overpromise.

00:10:35.740 Ed, come on, now.

00:10:36.600 There must be young chaps that get to paradise. 1.00

00:10:39.520 Where's my 77?

00:10:40.140 So it's only 72.

00:10:41.120 I'm 77.

00:10:42.340 Where's my extra five?

00:10:43.660 Where's my extra five virgins?

00:10:45.380 Get me them now.

00:10:46.500 Anyway, so, obviously, five pillars.

00:10:50.540 I like dropping in on five pillars because they always have some pushback and it's obvious just nonsense.

00:10:55.860 Subversive nonsense.

00:10:56.580 So, one of the other criminal offences would be to aim to punish those who propagate ideas based on religious superiority and hatred.

00:11:03.740 What?

00:11:04.200 I mean, that's Islam through and through.

00:11:06.140 Yeah, that's a certain kind of Christianity, though, isn't it?

00:11:07.920 I think we'll be caught up in that note.

00:11:09.300 I guess so, but...

00:11:10.160 All religions claim that their moral code is superior. 1.00

00:11:13.480 Well, we'll get to...

00:11:14.440 It's sort of baked into it.

00:11:15.420 I know.

00:11:15.860 Yeah, we'll kind of get to that, I guess.

00:11:19.760 But various Italian Muslim leaders have reacted.

00:11:23.360 There should be no Italian Muslim leaders. 1.00

00:11:26.020 There should be no leaders that you go to talk to. 0.99

00:11:28.500 This is nonsense.

00:11:31.100 Yeah, I hate that terminology.

00:11:33.800 But some imam said,

00:11:35.320 banning the full veil, which isn't banning the veil itself, could be part of a security rationale, but legislation to this effect already exists.

00:11:41.580 So, I wonder what the actual utility of this proposal is.

00:11:43.900 It's to make you feel unwelcome because you are unwelcome.

00:11:46.440 That's the bottom line.

00:11:47.360 Thanks for that clarity.

00:11:49.300 Thanks for that clarity.

00:11:49.520 Based.

00:11:50.100 Yeah.

00:11:50.480 Yes.

00:11:51.300 You should go home, quite frankly.

00:11:52.760 An opposition member of the Democratic Party.

00:11:55.540 Of course.

00:11:56.540 Of course.

00:11:57.100 I had a taxi driver last night.

00:11:59.720 Took me from Heathrow to here.

00:12:01.580 Yes.

00:12:01.880 To London.

00:12:03.280 And he was Muslim.

00:12:05.260 Did you ask?

00:12:06.340 No, no.

00:12:06.760 He just, well, I had the same guy before, but he was called Mohammed, so he was definitely Muslim.

00:12:11.960 And one of the things he asked was quite a genuine conversation.

00:12:15.220 Like, what are you?

00:12:17.120 I was talking about how we were kind of okay about it here till 89.

00:12:21.100 And then it was the Titanic versus Salman Rushdie.

00:12:23.440 Salman Rushdie affair, yes.

00:12:24.500 Consciousness raising and so on.

00:12:26.040 And also the Ray Honeyford swimming thing, taking schoolgirls swimming with Muslim.

00:12:30.160 And he said, well, what is it that you people want?

00:12:34.000 And I said, well, what we want is, because this is England, right, is for you to completely,

00:12:39.100 if you are going to be here, is to completely and utterly integrate into English society.

00:12:45.220 Completely.

00:12:46.100 Like the Huguenots did. 0.96

00:12:47.740 Completely.

00:12:48.420 That means you drink.

00:12:49.400 That means you eat pork.

00:12:50.560 That means there is no difference except possibly genetic.

00:12:56.180 And he was astonished by this.

00:12:58.980 He said, yeah, but my faith is a big part of my life.

00:13:01.240 And it's like, oh, come on.

00:13:02.520 You know, you can, you can via social pressure, you can change your mind.

00:13:06.040 Look what happened under COVID.

00:13:07.600 Look what happened under people who used to be reasonably conservative, suddenly adopting woke.

00:13:12.140 And then the reverse as woke becomes unfashionable.

00:13:14.900 People can force themselves via effortful control and via just a desire for status and a desire to be seen as moral to change their mind.

00:13:22.200 Here's the problem with what you're saying.

00:13:23.580 The rationale behind face veils and these kinds of coverings is that men have no self-control.

00:13:31.000 And the rationale behind what you're saying is that you must have enough self-control to integrate.

00:13:36.320 These two views are entirely at odds with each other.

00:13:41.100 There is some, there is some.

00:13:43.920 If the premise of the religion is that a man cannot see a woman's face without arousal and without any kind of control over himself to the extent that he might do the needful, shall we say, instantly.

00:14:01.940 Yeah.

00:14:02.120 Then your expectation of a level of discipline and self-control is slightly misplaced.

00:14:06.800 As I've explained, what if these women that cover themselves up, we haven't seen their faces. 1.00

00:14:10.540 Right, right, right.

00:14:11.300 What if they really are unbelievably fit?

00:14:14.440 Right.

00:14:14.940 Yeah, probably unlikely.

00:14:15.980 I mean like really fit.

00:14:17.480 Unlikely.

00:14:19.260 Unlikely.

00:14:20.400 Genetically unlikely.

00:14:21.820 But unlikely.

00:14:23.660 But I take it on board.

00:14:24.560 There are some possibilities.

00:14:24.940 I take it on board as a potential, as a potential.

00:14:27.500 So the opposition of the Democratic Party said it's hateful in terms of the message it conveys.

00:14:33.220 Good.

00:14:34.180 That's absolutely fine.

00:14:35.600 Good.

00:14:36.720 Other aspects of the law seek to deal with matters surrounding Muslim marriages, such as strict penalties for arranged marriages, inducing marriages through religious coercion as well.

00:14:46.340 None of that should be a thing.

00:14:47.760 This is the West.

00:14:48.940 It should be further investigation of polygamy as well, because it's happening all the time. 0.68

00:14:53.140 Yeah.

00:14:54.000 It's happening.

00:14:54.680 It's a really, really serious problem.

00:14:56.840 And I don't mean to be insensitive.

00:15:00.580 No, of course not.

00:15:01.220 No, he's my guest.

00:15:02.160 Never.

00:15:02.980 Never.

00:15:03.700 Never.

00:15:04.540 But it's cousin marriage.

00:15:06.280 That's the really serious problem.

00:15:07.660 Yes.

00:15:08.020 And that's not a problem.

00:15:09.360 Hence why they're probably not that attractive.

00:15:12.120 Because they're inbred. 0.83

00:15:12.980 No.

00:15:13.760 Two sides to this, right?

00:15:16.300 So on the one hand, you're going to get, obviously, you're going to get the ones that have double doses, okay?

00:15:22.080 And they're going to be ugly.

00:15:23.380 Yeah.

00:15:23.540 And the reason why they do it, the reason, the evolutionary reason why they do it is so

00:15:27.340 that you're very, very strongly adapted to a particular niche, i.e. a niche with high

00:15:31.360 pathogen load.

00:15:32.420 So if you marry someone that's very genetically similar to you, then you ensure that the genetic 0.78

00:15:36.660 constructs, or as it were, that protect you against a particular disease are not broken

00:15:44.140 up.

00:15:44.800 But normally...

00:15:45.520 And so normally, yeah, double doses, death...

00:15:47.820 Well, no, I mean, normally those disease vectors are within a certain locale.

00:15:51.440 Yeah, yeah.

00:15:51.720 That's why they do it.

00:15:52.600 That's why they do it.

00:15:53.400 And so what you would expect is there's going to be a minority of them that are just unbelievably

00:15:57.600 healthy for their ecology.

00:16:00.140 And therefore, will be able to maintain a symmetrical phenotype in the face of disease

00:16:03.820 because they'll be resistant to it and therefore will be good looking.

00:16:05.980 You actually see that in the Gulf, believe it or not.

00:16:09.520 You see some exceptional beauties in the Gulf, in part because the past environment was so

00:16:15.920 harsh that anybody who survived had to be of higher genetic quality.

00:16:22.320 And in part because marriages were conducted at a relatively young age, meaning that the

00:16:27.680 issue of more mutations as you age was solved sort of intrinsically.

00:16:31.680 Yeah.

00:16:32.000 But then with the advent of modern medicine and the collapse in child mortality rates,

00:16:40.840 you see a change in the other direction.

00:16:43.800 Exactly.

00:16:44.980 But in theory, you're going to get a minority of these women, as I said, who need to cover 1.00

00:16:50.220 themselves up because they're going to be unbelievably beautiful.

00:16:52.180 Yes, yes.

00:16:52.540 But then the majority are just going to be matematous.

00:16:54.920 Yes.

00:16:55.620 So back to this.

00:16:57.200 So this is the one which is most interesting, I think.

00:16:59.600 So the new law will also target Islamic groups or mosques, which receive funding from abroad.

00:17:04.940 Pretty important, obviously, if you have a proliferation of terror activity.

00:17:09.540 They'll be required to fully disclose any foreign funding to the state.

00:17:12.920 And such matters surrounding the marriage would actually introduce prison sentences,

00:17:17.020 two to seven years, which is good.

00:17:18.880 But you also don't want these people to be in prison, isolated amongst themselves either.

00:17:23.820 That would offer further radicalization, of course.

00:17:26.500 Quick couple of points on the financing issue.

00:17:33.180 Any kind of foreign financing is going to come with a dose of radicalization because

00:17:37.900 the people who study Islam properly in Arabic come to the conclusion that it is quite radical 0.99

00:17:44.920 and that it has a very deep sense of supremacy, a very deep sense of vanity and arrogance that

00:17:53.440 is baked into the story to the extent that Muhammad claimed that it wasn't Isaac, the father of

00:18:00.580 the Jews, who was offered as a sacrifice by Abraham.

00:18:03.840 It was, in fact, Ishmael, the father of the Arabs.

00:18:07.080 So there is this baked-in sense that Islam is superior. 1.00

00:18:11.640 And this is peppered throughout the Quran itself.

00:18:14.900 It's really full-on.

00:18:17.100 Christianity encourages you to think of your own sinfulness constantly. 0.94

00:18:21.840 Islam encourages you to believe that you are the greatest nation ever given to mankind.

00:18:26.520 So the difference in worldview isn't going to be addressed by this minor legislative tinkering.

00:18:36.740 And if you want to say we want to create a hostile environment, say that the aim is to

00:18:41.520 create a hostile environment.

00:18:42.700 Yeah.

00:18:43.060 The problem is that everybody is operating within a liberal framework where they believe that

00:18:51.640 religious differences are merely a matter of opinion.

00:18:55.420 I'm more convinced by Islam.

00:18:57.200 You're more convinced by Christianity.

00:18:58.920 He's more convinced by Judaism.

00:19:00.760 And we can sort of debate it nicely.

00:19:02.860 As opposed to, no, religion is the bedrock of your moral worldview.

00:19:08.640 It's the bedrock of your identity.

00:19:11.280 And therefore, religious differences are existential.

00:19:14.880 Very substantially, it's just an expression of genetic differences.

00:19:17.880 Often, these religious differences are religious leaders.

00:19:21.640 In a diverse community, yes.

00:19:23.600 Even in a community, it's not even that diverse.

00:19:25.800 Yes.

00:19:26.120 So if you look at something like, well, what's going on with the fact that the east of England

00:19:32.580 was very, very into Protestantism when it came along?

00:19:38.020 The Protestantism and that kind of worldview that goes with it of being puritanical, of being

00:19:42.420 highly monotheistic, as it were, to use Alan de Benoit's division, as opposed to more

00:19:47.660 polytheistic, east of England, highly Protestant, they go, they settle the northern states of

00:19:53.440 America, west of England, kind of a bit more Catholic-y, Protestant-y mixed.

00:19:58.600 And these are genetic cleavages, because the east of England was substantially, completely

00:20:02.560 Anglo-Saxon, whereas the west of England is a Saxon-Celtic-Cline.

00:20:07.180 We then have a civil war, essentially between the east and the west of England, between Anglo-Saxon

00:20:13.200 and Anglo-Celtic, between Protestant and kind of Protestant-o-Catholic.

00:20:18.080 And then that civil war is exactly repeated in America a couple hundred years later, when,

00:20:23.540 300 years later, or whatever, 300 years later, when you have the north, Protestant, from the

00:20:29.000 east of England, versus the south, sort of Protestant-o-Catholic, from the west of England

00:20:33.940 and, to some extent, Ulster.

00:20:36.380 And so these are, even that's the difference, these are genetic cleavages, and that's why

00:20:40.300 it's so much more, what's the word I want, in-baked or something?

00:20:44.560 Baked in.

00:20:44.800 Baked in, yes.

00:20:45.640 Sorry, yes, of course.

00:20:46.520 I've been corrected by an Arabic speaker, I don't know my English, it's quite embarrassing.

00:20:49.940 It's quite embarrassing.

00:20:50.960 Yes, ingrained, exactly.

00:20:51.960 Much more ingrained than simply this idea that you're, I believe in this opinion and you

00:20:56.660 have in that opinion.

00:20:57.600 It's not that, it's an expression, it's a, it's an, religion is an expression, often

00:21:02.500 of genetic difference.

00:21:05.000 Interesting.

00:21:05.540 It's intractable.

00:21:06.600 Very interesting.

00:21:07.140 So, in the interest of time, we've got to shuffle on just briefly.

00:21:11.080 Italy's not the only country doing it, so Portugal has now actually done it.

00:21:17.120 So, Italy was only talking about it, but Portugal has actually done it, and this is quite hot

00:21:21.360 off the press, it was on Friday.

00:21:22.980 Birka ban approved by Portugal's parliament.

00:21:25.200 It's seen as targeting Muslim women.

00:21:26.720 Yes, that's kind of the point, obviously.

00:21:29.260 Non-Muslim women wear burkas? 1.00

00:21:31.140 I wasn't...

00:21:32.060 Typically, no.

00:21:33.100 Guardian here with her big-brained, massive takes, but it, to me...

00:21:38.240 So, even the Arabs will make jokes about how women in a burka look like a tent, and you

00:21:43.600 can't tell if she's coming or going.

00:21:45.500 That's quite funny, really, but yeah.

00:21:48.080 There is this sort of intolerance towards this in a lot of Arab societies, and the idea 1.00

00:21:54.940 that the Europeans should out-tolerate the Arabs is a bit stupid. 0.99

00:21:59.900 Well, they've even called us out for it numerous times, haven't they? 0.99

00:22:02.280 But yeah, Portugal, to me, it's baffling that Portugal even allowed Islam entry, quite frankly. 0.95

00:22:10.200 If you're not familiar with their flag, their flag is quite literally a representation of

00:22:14.620 them defeating Islam throughout history. 0.95

00:22:17.820 So, you have the seven castles there.

00:22:21.160 They are quite literally representative of the seven castles of the Moors, and then the

00:22:26.600 five shields are the five Moorish kings that were defeated as well.

00:22:31.160 Is that right?

00:22:32.380 I'm pretty certain that's right.

00:22:33.260 I didn't know.

00:22:34.340 That's fascinating.

00:22:34.640 Well, you can correct me in the comments, but I'm fairly certain that is correct.

00:22:37.940 So, their flag is literally representative of defeating Moors. 1.00

00:22:43.160 Yes.

00:22:43.520 So, actually defeating Islam, and yet they've still allowed them into the country. 1.00

00:22:47.800 I don't understand what the Europeans... 1.00

00:22:49.160 I don't understand what Westerners have done to themselves.

00:22:51.380 You'd think that after 9-11, the sort of discourse would be, get out.

00:22:56.380 Precisely.

00:22:56.780 I have friends who were in the United States during 9-11, Lebanese Muslim friends, and

00:23:03.140 their parents said, get out, they're going to kill us all.

00:23:06.420 Yeah.

00:23:07.260 Because that's exactly what would have happened if it had been the other way around.

00:23:11.300 Yes.

00:23:12.060 Yes.

00:23:12.440 Yeah, yeah.

00:23:12.820 Which actually nicely segues on to the overall take of the segment is, hey, look, it's great

00:23:18.820 that Europe is doing this, but this is fundamentally flawed when you're still leaving the floodgates

00:23:25.660 wide open and allowing them just to pour in.

00:23:29.620 This is putting...

00:23:30.180 It's window dressing.

00:23:31.360 Yeah.

00:23:31.620 This is just red meat.

00:23:33.060 So, this is good. 0.99

00:23:34.320 This is retarded populism. 1.00

00:23:35.020 Yeah. 0.96

00:23:35.560 What this is, is retarded populism. 0.99

00:23:37.280 What do we do if they take off the burka thing and just wear a plastic mask? 1.00

00:23:44.440 Are we going to...

00:23:45.820 Are we going to...

00:23:46.540 A plastic clown mask?

00:23:47.840 Are we going to make that illegal to wear plastic clown masks?

00:23:50.560 Who knows?

00:23:51.480 Probably, probably not.

00:23:52.840 But yeah, this is all irrelevant.

00:23:54.660 This is just red meat.

00:23:56.120 Good that Europe's doing it, I guess, on face value, but this is shallow.

00:24:00.540 It's empty.

00:24:01.420 It's vapid.

00:24:01.480 This is the pretense of action.

00:24:03.100 Yeah, of course it is.

00:24:03.800 This is the pretense of action.

00:24:05.000 100% it is.

00:24:05.380 100% it is.

00:24:05.920 And this is like putting, you know, you have a stab wound to the heart and you put a

00:24:09.740 piece of plaster on it.

00:24:10.640 Yes.

00:24:10.880 It's not going to do you much good.

00:24:11.780 They've banned the use of...

00:24:12.880 They banned in Turkey, in public places like universities, public spaces, the use of head

00:24:17.760 scarves.

00:24:18.520 And so what the women do that want to wear head scarves is they just put a wig over the 1.00

00:24:23.320 head scarf and thus it doesn't look like they're wearing a head scarf.

00:24:26.680 So there's all kinds of ways around this.

00:24:28.500 So as I say, it's just window dressing.

00:24:30.780 The real problem is since 2nd of May 1997 and particularly after 2001, the government has

00:24:37.500 deliberately, quite deliberately, A for ideological reasons, will rub the right's nose in diversity

00:24:41.680 and B for just decadent reasons to do with making, to do with undermining the wages of

00:24:46.620 the working class and keeping things cheap or whatever, has imported loads and loads of

00:24:54.500 people who have no intention, who have often no historical relationship with this country 0.97

00:24:58.700 and no intention to integrate into it and no ability to do so.

00:25:03.960 And it is...

00:25:04.820 And no love nor respect for it.

00:25:06.580 No.

00:25:06.880 No, they don't care.

00:25:08.500 Fundamentally, they hate you.

00:25:10.760 They hate the West.

00:25:11.500 They hate everything about it and they shouldn't be here.

00:25:15.560 That's a good summary.

00:25:18.520 Oh, yes.

00:25:19.460 Somebody with a very Polish name says, for I can barely handle one girlfriend.

00:25:26.940 See, you're also allowed to use physical force, which sort of helps under the laws of Islam. 1.00

00:25:35.640 So you just might want to remember that.

00:25:37.240 Um, if he's asking, I'm not suggesting anything.

00:25:44.160 Yeah, it sounded like it.

00:25:45.500 I'm saying how this conflict is handled. 0.97

00:25:49.300 A certain kind of female does like to be spanked. 1.00

00:25:52.720 You're right. 0.89

00:25:54.260 Is that what you're saying?

00:25:55.120 Ed, you need to be on the show more often.

00:25:56.820 YouTube friendly.

00:25:57.260 YouTube friendly.

00:25:57.840 YouTube friendly.

00:25:58.380 You're the one that just said they need to get back to where they come from and all this.

00:26:01.360 That I would never have said.

00:26:02.400 I feel like I've fallen into a wormhole or something.

00:26:07.980 And me for making a perfectly sensible remark about ladies.

00:26:13.020 I'm told to be YouTube friendly.

00:26:14.400 God.

00:26:15.140 Citadel Stone 17 says, I'm in the US and remember 9-11.

00:26:19.040 The war against Islamophobia began almost immediately and came entirely from the media.

00:26:24.240 Don't look too deeply into who ran all of these media companies.

00:26:27.100 Well, I, the first time I heard that Islam was a religion of peace was when George W. Bush said it.

00:26:34.100 I grew up in a Muslim country being told that actually it has precisely the right level of violence. 0.96

00:26:40.600 Citadel Stone says, maybe the real reason behind making their women wear face coverings is because they don't want to be reminded that they married their cousin.

00:26:50.640 And I'm going to stop there, but you should get on the website and check out what this guy's saying.

00:26:59.180 He's saying, he's saying, don't look into it.

00:27:01.760 We're not discussing what he's saying.

00:27:03.760 One Tall Order says, I just like to say thank you, Lotus Eaters, for what you do.

00:27:07.560 You're extremely welcome.

00:27:09.260 Hope everyone is having a better Monday than I.

00:27:11.440 Broke fibula and shipped tibia.

00:27:13.040 Oh, an off-road motorcycle rally yesterday.

00:27:15.600 That's very, very bad.

00:27:16.380 Get well soon, mate.

00:27:17.260 Get well soon.

00:27:18.260 Yeah, rest up.

00:27:19.140 That's horrendous.

00:27:20.640 Moving on to another segment in which, yes, you're very much encouraged to interact.

00:27:25.640 There was a reparations conference by the African, spelled with a K, reparations all-party parliamentary group.

00:27:34.600 So this is a group of parliamentarians in Britain who held a conference to demand reparations for slavery.

00:27:44.900 Good luck.

00:27:45.600 Yes.

00:27:46.040 Of course, you all remember the gentleman who asked for $18 trillion in reparations.

00:27:51.540 Who was it again?

00:27:52.100 What about Lenny Henry?

00:27:53.780 Yes, yes, yes.

00:27:54.640 He was supposed to be a hero of successful integration.

00:27:57.860 And he wants $18 trillion, which I suspect is four or five times the GDP of Britain, something along these lines.

00:28:03.760 Good luck.

00:28:04.300 So I don't understand where that figure came from, but I don't think logic is the point, as I'm going to be arguing here. 0.58

00:28:14.640 I think, just out of the blue, I think he pulled that out of his backside.

00:28:19.720 Ah, yes.

00:28:21.080 Well, there's a bit of, a lot of research done there.

00:28:24.160 Yeah, I've played a magician's trick. 0.97

00:28:24.420 A lot of his rear end.

00:28:25.660 The conference started at 10 a.m. 0.85

00:28:28.880 Nice, lazy start with nobody likes to get up very early.

00:28:32.900 You had Bel Ribeiro Addy, who was an MP, participating in it.

00:28:38.500 You had, yeah, go on.

00:28:41.120 Debbie Flack, Quakers in Britain.

00:28:43.160 Yes, the Quakers were very heavily involved in this, and it was actually held at the Quakers building in London.

00:28:52.220 You had a professor of law, comma, pan-Africanist.

00:28:59.600 I don't understand what's going on there.

00:29:02.980 You had Jeremy Corbyn participating, of course.

00:29:06.240 Diane Abbott, obviously.

00:29:07.780 And a councillor from the Green Party, somebody else from the SNP, as you'd expect.

00:29:16.740 And the sort of topics there, from display to dignity, mobilising the diaspora to lay our ancestors to rest.

00:29:24.240 Did they?

00:29:25.520 Maybe I'm superseding this somehow.

00:29:27.760 But did they speak about Dahomey in any of this anywhere or not?

00:29:31.960 They didn't.

00:29:32.580 I'll bet they didn't.

00:29:33.560 They didn't speak about the slaving thing.

00:29:34.680 They didn't speak about the slaving state.

00:29:36.640 They didn't speak about the slave king of Dahomey.

00:29:38.860 I'll bet they didn't.

00:29:39.380 And the ritualistic festival where they slaughtered them.

00:29:43.140 They didn't speak about human sacrifice.

00:29:45.500 Wow.

00:29:46.380 That's an oversight, isn't it?

00:29:47.540 Maybe we should write to them.

00:29:48.640 In a fairly major way.

00:29:49.900 Wow.

00:29:50.520 They are all descended.

00:29:52.060 We are all, as you know, we in England are all descended from King Edward III.

00:29:56.660 Right.

00:29:56.920 By virtue of the fact that there was this pronounced coronation until about 1800 between socioeconomic status and completed fertility.

00:30:05.040 And this is, of course, the same in sub-Saharan Africa.

00:30:09.760 And these were, as well, polygamous societies, which makes it even more pronounced. 0.93

00:30:13.500 Right.

00:30:13.680 And they all held slaves.

00:30:15.720 Yes.

00:30:15.960 So, Diane Abbott is descended from slaveholders. 1.00

00:30:19.640 So, 25% of the current population of Mauritania are slaves right now.

00:30:27.000 So, the idea that this is a sort of big historic, there's something like 50 million people enslaved in the world today.

00:30:33.540 Many of them white.

00:30:34.860 Many of them white and Eastern European women who are held in slavery as prostitutes. 0.90

00:30:40.700 They're only focused on their ancestors, not their current.

00:30:43.480 They're only focused on getting money from the British government.

00:30:47.100 That is all.

00:30:47.720 We must be guilty for the fact that some of our ancestors, not even all of them, I mean, all of them.

00:30:52.600 I mean, I don't know.

00:30:53.260 I mean, admittedly, my collateral ancestor was the governor of Barbados in 1700, so he was a bit involved.

00:31:00.700 But in general, okay, they're all going to be descended from people that held slaves.

00:31:09.260 Moreover, do we ever talk about the fact that until about a thousand years ago, there were no Bantu in Southern Africa?

00:31:16.160 Yes.

00:31:16.400 None.

00:31:16.980 And they're not allowed to.

00:31:17.740 Southern Africa was populated by bushmen, by the Khoi Khoi, Khoisan, and by what used to be called the Hottentot.

00:31:25.320 They were a peaceable kind of people.

00:31:28.160 And then the Bantu went in, slaughtered them, took over their lands, and enslaved them. 1.00

00:31:34.660 Yes.

00:31:34.860 But yet, they do not have to have hereditary guilt for this.

00:31:39.820 No, because they're not white, you see.

00:31:41.060 That's the actual issue.

00:31:42.320 And I think that it manipulates the fact that, I don't know if it's...

00:31:47.220 Guilt seems to be very powerful among Europeans in a way that perhaps is less so in some other cultures.

00:31:52.480 It's a direct consequence of the Christian mind. 0.90

00:31:56.260 Right.

00:31:56.600 Direct consequence of the Christian. 1.00

00:31:58.400 So if you look across the world, it's only European culture that is guilt-based, whereas the rest of the world's culture is honor-based.

00:32:06.260 And I would argue that that implies that it's pride-based, in a sense.

00:32:09.740 So Europeans and Christians in general concern themselves with the wrongs that they have done, rather than the speck in your eye. 0.60

00:32:19.220 As a Christian, I'm meant to concern myself with the beam in my eye, not the speck in yours.

00:32:23.580 Whereas the sort of more, I would argue, natural perspective is to be concerned with loss of face and loss of status, because that immediately affects your genetic...

00:32:35.640 Guilt is that there is a little thing inside, a little idea of yourself that you have that you haven't lived up to, and you feel bad about yourself.

00:32:41.460 And that's what we are very subject to.

00:32:43.620 And all I can say in response to this is that the British were the first people to...

00:32:47.380 Every society had slavery.

00:32:49.500 Yes.

00:32:50.240 The British were the first people to abolish slavery.

00:32:52.620 Yes.

00:32:53.160 So slavery is so terrible, and the British were the first people to abolish it, while it was an endemic in Africa.

00:32:57.920 But you still owe 18 trillion pounds.

00:32:59.720 Don't owe anything, because you...

00:33:01.600 Not according to Diane Abbott.

00:33:02.880 Did something, which everybody else did, and you could...

00:33:07.060 My friend Lipton Matthews, who is Jamaican, I would look at the benefits that Jamaica has in terms of education, in terms of infrastructure, in terms of whatever, from having been, it still is, a British colony.

00:33:20.800 Yes.

00:33:21.800 In terms of even something like the invention of artificial fertilizer, a European thing, allowed the population of these places to grow.

00:33:32.620 People wouldn't be alive today if it wasn't for these issues.

00:33:35.960 So it's just being manipulated.

00:33:38.500 I'm going to allow Diane Abbott to correct you, if you don't mind.

00:33:41.520 I'm going to allow Diane Abbott.

00:33:42.960 Oh, well, how, why should we pay all this money?

00:33:46.280 This was so long ago.

00:33:48.060 This has nothing to do with us.

00:33:50.340 But of course, it has to do with the British state in the here and now.

00:33:57.260 You cannot repeat often enough that the profits from slavery made many British institutions, our banks, our universities, our churches, our...

00:34:15.440 So I love the way, exactly, I was going to mention that.

00:34:20.680 I love the way in which she transitions from, it's the responsibility of the British government to our, and that her community demands reparations, but it's ours as well.

00:34:31.920 If it's yours, then you're not owed anything.

00:34:35.500 It's also fascinating she mentions the church because it was, of course, Christian ideology, which even led us to abolish it.

00:34:41.820 Fundamentally, Wilberforce and all of that.

00:34:45.880 Don't talk about that, big-brained...

00:34:48.140 That is a flip, that she wants to be both British.

00:34:51.540 It's our, I'm British, I'm British, but I'm also not British. 0.88

00:34:55.040 And then some of the titles there talk about the African diaspora.

00:35:00.720 So you see on the agenda the perception that actually they aren't British, French, whatever.

00:35:08.920 And then you see them asserting hours, hours, hours.

00:35:13.200 And there is this divide. 0.97

00:35:15.200 And when you say you must choose, the answer is, well, you're a racist.

00:35:20.100 Well, I'm fine with that, but you do have to make a choice, kind of.

00:35:24.380 Did they talk about the Barbary slave trade by any time?

00:35:27.860 They will never mention the Muslim slave trade and the number of Europeans enslaved by Muslims.

00:35:32.700 The Slavics? 0.95

00:35:33.300 If you look at a picture of the Ottomans, of the ruling, the descendants of the Osman family, the Ottomans, they're all blonde, blue-haired.

00:35:45.800 And that's not the natural look of a Turk, shall I say. 1.00

00:35:49.300 Are you sure?

00:35:50.020 Yes, yes, I'm quite confident.

00:35:51.440 I'm quite confident.

00:35:52.740 And the reason for that is because they took so many white women as slaves for so long that they all ended up becoming blonde. 0.96

00:36:00.520 They came all the way from the Carnot of Crimea to northern, literally Oulu, northern Finland, where I live.

00:36:07.760 Right.

00:36:08.040 Because they were into the blonde-haired, blue-eyed, and took those women as slaves in the Carnot of Crimea. 0.78

00:36:14.800 And the conditions as well.

00:36:16.540 Okay, if we have to pay back reparations to Diane Abbott so she can buy wigs or lose weight or whatever she wants to spend the money on. 1.00

00:36:23.040 Two left shoes.

00:36:23.580 Then we need serious reparations from the people that lived on the southwest coast, the people that lived even in Iceland. 0.99

00:36:31.700 They went that far north and took slaves and held them in the most appalling conditions in many cases.

00:36:38.540 They would live their lives as galley slaves, excreting where they sat. 1.00

00:36:43.240 If they worked in the royal court, they would not just castrate them because they would also literally cut off their penises and force them to use some kind of distraught or urination. 0.99

00:36:50.780 Yes, catherer. 0.99

00:36:52.120 Yes.

00:36:53.040 The level of cruelty was unbelievable.

00:36:54.860 I think there was a guy that was French that was the prime minister of Algiers.

00:36:59.740 He was a castraso, though, so they could rise quite high.

00:37:03.220 But, yeah, that's what they would do.

00:37:05.040 So we need reparations from the Middle East. 1.00

00:37:07.920 It only goes one way.

00:37:09.940 Because since this is a Christian society that is naturally vulnerable to guilt, it won't in any way work on a Muslim society.

00:37:19.880 If you were to tell the Muslims, well, you guys took white people as slaves back in the day, the answer would be, yes, proudly so. 1.00

00:37:29.900 So you have to remember that this sort of…

00:37:32.200 All you can say to this is that this is just manipulation by people that are using covert manipulative tactics in order to extract resources from the population.

00:37:41.680 And we must not be manipulated.

00:37:44.720 Yes.

00:37:44.980 Summary Gibbs.

00:37:46.120 And you want to listen to this gentleman here.

00:37:49.380 And, sorry, the opening of this is quite important.

00:37:52.680 Let me just give you a view of it.

00:37:55.080 The speaker here is Julius Pan-Africanist Garvey.

00:37:59.580 And apparently he is the son of Marcus Garvey, who was important in the Jamaican independence movement.

00:38:05.860 And let's listen to him for a second.

00:38:07.420 Education is preparation for reparations.

00:38:12.280 So let's start there.

00:38:13.840 What?

00:38:14.180 Education.

00:38:15.460 Education.

00:38:16.100 Is preparation for reparations.

00:38:18.700 Rhymes.

00:38:19.600 As in, we are sort of brainwashing ourselves into thinking that we deserve more of other people's money.

00:38:26.860 That's, to translate it.

00:38:30.520 This year, we are very pleased to have Dr. Julius Garvey, who is a human rights…

00:38:36.860 Thank you for having me.

00:38:41.640 Thank you for your participation.

00:38:45.180 You have carried out your duty very well.

00:38:48.200 This is an excellent conference.

00:38:50.500 I read out your duty very well.

00:38:51.900 My talk is basically building a just and prosperous society, reparations.

00:39:01.860 Reparations.

00:39:02.880 So, to build a just and prosperous society, you must have reparations, otherwise you can't do it.

00:39:08.160 And the question that I had, which was repeated by CuteQueen8, is if slavery is what made the West great, will the Africans practice slavery for much longer and continue to do so?

00:39:23.740 So Mauritania, with 20-25% of its population as slaves, should be at the apex of human civilization, because apparently that's what makes a society great. 0.99

00:39:33.640 Slavery.

00:39:34.080 Well, obviously, manifestly, I mean, I forgive if I'm wrong about this, but I'm not aware that, for example, Finland imported slaves.

00:39:45.980 Yet Finland is one of the wealthiest countries in the West, one of the highest standards of living.

00:39:50.620 But they managed it without slaves.

00:39:52.400 Yes.

00:39:52.740 And Japan, I don't know how much slavery was going on there. 0.97

00:39:55.660 There was.

00:39:55.960 But certainly with Finland and other parts of Europe, there wasn't any.

00:40:00.780 So that is complete nonsense to say that slavery may have contributed in that you have free labor, but in the end, it was quite costly to maintain it.

00:40:12.160 Yes.

00:40:12.300 And so we got rid of it. 0.96

00:40:13.360 So this is obviously rubbish. 0.89

00:40:16.940 No, completely. 0.89

00:40:17.820 But I wanted to mention this guy, Julius Garvey, because he is the son of Marcus Garvey.

00:40:22.880 And I wanted to read a little bit about the profile of Marcus Garvey.

00:40:29.520 He wanted to make Africa into a single one-party state.

00:40:33.920 He believed in a sort of pan-Africanism.

00:40:36.380 Although he never visited the continent of Africa, he was committed to the Back to Africa movement, arguing that part of the diaspora should migrate there.

00:40:46.760 His ideas became increasingly popular.

00:40:50.060 And he was partnered with the KKK because they agreed that there should be complete separation between blacks and whites. 0.65

00:40:58.660 And so the KKK were of the idea that, yeah, pretty much we need total and complete separation.

00:41:04.360 But I just wanted to mention something about why Africa isn't being economically prosperous and use the example of this guy's father, Marcus Garvey.

00:41:14.740 He built a company called NEGRO Factories Corporation.

00:41:21.760 And it was part of the Universal NEGRO Improvement Association and African Communities League with a million dollars funded by black people.

00:41:34.360 But then it went bankrupt.

00:41:37.120 And the reason was because, and I quote, Garvey appointed inexperienced people to run organizations because he valued loyalty over competence.

00:41:47.880 Now, what you see in every single African country is the exact same story.

00:41:52.780 It's pretty much the exact same story.

00:41:54.700 And it's the result of this being an extremely low-trust society where you can't have competent people running things because they might overthrow you.

00:42:04.760 I would argue that this explains the situation of Africa today much more than what happened in the days of slavery.

00:42:13.360 That would be my first argument.

00:42:14.880 I would also argue that China, Vietnam, Japan, Korea, very famously, they all had massive slave populations.

00:42:26.260 But they're not in the situation of sub-Saharan Africa.

00:42:29.600 And they still ended up partnering with the West and with supposed neocolonial powers and so on and so forth.

00:42:36.660 But they didn't end up in the situation.

00:42:39.420 And so when you want to assess a movement or what some kind of grievance group is saying,

00:42:45.240 the first question you should ask yourself is, to what extent do they blame themselves for their own plight?

00:42:51.740 Like, this seems to me like a pretty important question.

00:42:54.160 And it's a very Christian question.

00:42:56.140 This is what Christ tells us to do.

00:42:57.500 Look at the beam in your own eye first.

00:43:00.860 So when you see these kinds of groups just blaming everybody but themselves for whatever happens to them or whatever happened to them in the past,

00:43:09.000 you've got to ask, well, you know, to what extent is some of it your fault?

00:43:14.880 Other societies had slavery, and they didn't do this badly.

00:43:18.900 This is a video from the previous conference, and this is by a guy...

00:43:22.140 What are they wearing?

00:43:23.120 Yeah, I know, I know, I know.

00:43:24.740 Goodness me.

00:43:26.040 I know.

00:43:27.020 But this is a guy who became the creative director of, I think, either Shakespeare's Theatre or some kind of very major Royal Society associated art group.

00:43:43.240 And he's still saying, we want reparations, we want this, we want that.

00:43:47.560 And sitting around in this are a bunch of MPs, Don Butler, Diane Abbott, Clive Lewis, Ribeiro Addy.

00:43:56.120 I mean, if you become an MP in a country, you've made it.

00:43:59.620 This is the highest echelon of political success.

00:44:02.100 Yeah, but I mean, that's just another indictment on why foreigners shouldn't be allowed political office in the UK. 0.96

00:44:06.920 It's so disgusting. 0.99

00:44:08.200 Absolutely so disgusting. 0.98

00:44:09.360 They just push for... 0.97

00:44:10.500 100%.

00:44:11.180 Sectarianism, their own in-group preference.

00:44:13.620 All these things in my head that I don't say, and then he just says them.

00:44:17.260 All right.

00:44:17.580 I daren't say.

00:44:20.580 I'm told, you know, keep it friendly, all this.

00:44:23.020 And then I kind of transfer them into his brain via some kind of telepathy.

00:44:27.280 It's extraordinary how this keeps happening.

00:44:29.520 But no, they are...

00:44:31.300 Someone's put a very interesting point on here, on one of the questions, which is who sold them into slavery?

00:44:37.820 And the answer is the chieftains.

00:44:39.720 Yes.

00:44:40.060 They were part of other tribes.

00:44:41.960 Yes.

00:44:42.300 Dahomey, as you say. 0.98

00:44:43.460 Those tribes were defeated.

00:44:44.660 They were taken as slaves by those other tribes, and then they were sold to the Americans, to the British, to whoever. 0.91

00:44:52.400 And if they hadn't been sold to the Americans, they may well have been sold to the Arabs. 0.71

00:44:57.100 Yes.

00:44:57.300 And if that had happened, they would have had a much less pleasant time.

00:45:00.400 Yes.

00:45:00.720 And probably wouldn't have had descendants today.

00:45:03.600 Yeah.

00:45:04.260 I mean, there are tiny communities of blacks in the Middle East, and the way that they are treated is...

00:45:12.340 I find it quite abhorrent still, you know? 0.96

00:45:15.660 Like, Arabs are not shy about their racism. 1.00

00:45:18.100 They wear it on their sleeves quite proudly. 0.87

00:45:20.800 And so you have to ask yourselves, well, you know, in which society did blacks benefit the most?

00:45:26.880 And one question to think about is, why is any black person in Western Europe going to be, on average, much richer than the average black person in Sub-Saharan Africa?

00:45:37.920 I mean, where do you have a better standard of living?

00:45:40.860 Obviously in the West.

00:45:42.440 Why?

00:45:44.280 And does that count towards reparations in some way?

00:45:48.640 I should say.

00:45:49.240 Does it have any economic value or financial value?

00:45:54.880 So what they're saying is, what would make sense is that they would go back to the poorest part of Africa with kind of a 17th, 18th century standard of living, even in Africa. 0.69

00:46:13.560 And they, no plumbing, no electricity, no modern comforts, living in a hut.

00:46:20.720 And then they get some reparations.

00:46:23.100 No, that's not what they're saying.

00:46:24.080 No, they've got to stay.

00:46:24.800 They get to stay.

00:46:25.360 Oh, they get to stay?

00:46:26.140 They get to stay.

00:46:26.840 So you're saying they get to stay with all of the enormous material benefits of living in the West, and they just get money.

00:46:32.280 It's called have your cake and eat it.

00:46:34.100 Pretty much.

00:46:35.100 Pretty much.

00:46:35.660 And also, it wouldn't work, because what I can imagine would happen is that a lot of them would get these reparations and would then frit them away, and very quickly they would...

00:46:45.540 But that would be our fault as well.

00:46:46.560 That would then be our fault.

00:46:47.720 Then they would say, oh, well, that was because you didn't teach us how to spend the money properly and educate us, because education, as you know, needs reparation.

00:46:54.460 Yes.

00:46:55.040 You need to decolonise education. 0.98

00:46:56.840 You didn't decolonise education enough, so therefore we accidentally spent the money on all kinds of nonsense. 0.95

00:47:01.860 So that would probably happen.

00:47:03.080 So it's never ending.

00:47:04.840 It would be a never ending, and then they want more reparations, and then they spend them, and it would be never ending.

00:47:09.220 And so, as I say, the only solution is stand up to racism.

00:47:12.720 Look at that.

00:47:13.120 How manipulative.

00:47:14.840 I also think, like, how...

00:47:18.400 If you did a cross-section of the ethnicities that are on benefits in the UK, is there a predominant element that are ethnically descended from individuals such as this?

00:47:29.760 Surely that's a form of reparations.

00:47:31.080 If your entire life has been funded by the state.

00:47:33.620 Yeah, that's still...

00:47:34.380 You really want to get into the nitty-gritty of it all.

00:47:36.120 No, I mean, if you want to get into the nitty-gritty, you should also factor in crime.

00:47:41.380 Yeah, well, yeah.

00:47:42.280 Are we going to get reparations for that?

00:47:43.900 Probably not.

00:47:44.680 That's one question to ask.

00:47:46.360 Also, if this country is so racist, why are you still here?

00:47:48.640 Just leave.

00:47:49.140 These are, like, elementary logical issues that should not be addressed.

00:47:54.480 We're in the modern era in travel.

00:47:56.680 The truth of the matter, Nate, is that the inequality we face globally stems directly from the legacies of enslavement and colonization.

00:48:04.400 One of the things that stems directly from colonization is running water, plumbing, hospitals, schools, roads, basic state functions.

00:48:15.240 Yeah.

00:48:16.160 Life expectancy high.

00:48:17.720 Life expectancy being much higher.

00:48:19.920 Children surviving.

00:48:20.780 Children surviving, et cetera, et cetera.

00:48:22.880 Yeah.

00:48:24.600 Britain has yet to fully confront or make amends for these injustices.

00:48:28.660 Right.

00:48:30.100 Like, how is ending slavery globally not making amends?

00:48:35.800 One of the things they argue, they said that, Lenny Henry said this.

00:48:40.360 Yes.

00:48:40.820 Is that if we have these reparations, it will help to end racism globally.

00:48:45.080 And I was like, what?

00:48:46.540 Why?

00:48:47.000 How?

00:48:47.700 Racism is inbuilt.

00:48:49.300 If racism basically means ethnocentrism, which it does, ethnocentrism is something that is built into us.

00:48:54.840 And there's numerous studies that indicate this.

00:48:57.300 Yes.

00:48:57.800 In group preference.

00:48:58.660 It's genetically similar.

00:49:00.480 It's genetically similar.

00:49:01.440 If you cooperate with someone that's your genetic kin, that's indirectly passing on your genes.

00:49:06.620 Yes.

00:49:06.840 So there will always be racism.

00:49:09.080 And even if we create new races, which we are doing, such as the Happers in America or whatever, 0.99

00:49:13.780 then you just get, they marry each other.

00:49:15.780 Yes.

00:49:15.980 And you just get essentially new forms of what they want to call racism.

00:49:20.360 Yes. 0.97

00:49:20.520 So that's absolutely ridiculous. 0.99

00:49:21.580 And then he says, oh, the reason why black people are underrepresented in the UK today, 0.97

00:49:26.540 even putting aside the fact that they've only been here since 1948, in various...

00:49:32.260 I thought they were always here.

00:49:33.060 I thought diversity built Britain.

00:49:34.780 What are you saying, Ed?

00:49:35.760 I'm saying...

00:49:36.600 What are you saying?

00:49:37.160 I'm saying...

00:49:37.540 Ed, are you careful?

00:49:40.320 That's...

00:49:40.600 Wow.

00:49:41.240 That's not...

00:49:42.400 Spicy take.

00:49:43.020 Well, I did go to a part of Colchester a few years ago, which is, of course, the oldest

00:49:46.920 town in Britain.

00:49:47.600 I did see some black people.

00:49:48.860 Whoa.

00:49:49.260 And so I wonder if they're descended from these black people that were there before the

00:49:52.500 time of the Romans.

00:49:53.380 And they just kind of hid away because of systemic racism for a thousand years or so.

00:49:58.400 Yeah.

00:49:58.520 And now have re-emerged when the environment was more propitious.

00:50:01.440 Yeah.

00:50:01.580 They were still educated.

00:50:02.580 That's mad.

00:50:03.340 It is.

00:50:04.280 Wow.

00:50:04.400 There are reasons why there are socioeconomic differences, and slavery has nothing to do 0.97

00:50:11.000 with it.

00:50:11.760 Terrible conditions are...

00:50:14.240 We have people in this country that have recently descended from people that lived in the most

00:50:18.940 terrible conditions, right?

00:50:20.540 That worked in factories, that lived in one room, little houses outside, terrible conditions.

00:50:29.280 And those people, if by genetic chance, end up having the qualities that cause you to

00:50:35.000 have socioeconomic status, they move up.

00:50:37.820 And we know this.

00:50:38.720 And you can trace your family tree back, and you can see that a lot of people in this country

00:50:42.880 that are reasonably successful will have ancestors like that because of these changes.

00:50:47.260 So it's absurd.

00:50:49.620 It's a complete absurdity, but I want to mention a couple of the organizations that are involved

00:50:53.020 in this.

00:50:54.740 So these are some of the organizations that are involved.

00:50:57.840 There is obviously the arm of the state known as Stand Up to Racism, and they are signing

00:51:07.660 letters against the far right while demanding that the far right pays them reparations.

00:51:12.120 Okay, funny.

00:51:13.580 They're attacking Tommy Robinson for being pro-Israel.

00:51:16.800 Whatever you think about that, I honestly don't care.

00:51:19.500 Here they are protesting in support of the illegal migrants, essentially, after there were a

00:51:26.760 bunch of incidents of rape, really, and attacking Robert Jenrick for noticing that Handsworth is

00:51:34.440 not really integrated.

00:51:35.900 Then there is an organization called Ubele.

00:51:46.000 Every journey starts with a single step.

00:51:48.640 Apparently, that's an African proverb.

00:51:50.640 Whatever.

00:51:51.840 And it's taken from Swahili.

00:51:54.060 And you look at these guys, and you're like, come on.

00:51:58.100 Really?

00:51:58.440 I think they're culturally appropriate in our clothing there.

00:52:04.380 Maybe.

00:52:05.860 You get another organization called Repair Campaign, where they're essentially bragging

00:52:11.040 about the Haitian Revolution.

00:52:12.760 How did that go?

00:52:14.200 Oh, yeah.

00:52:14.480 Well done. 1.00

00:52:14.660 They murdered all the white people. 1.00

00:52:15.920 Well done. 0.99

00:52:16.380 And then Haiti became the worst country in the world. 0.83

00:52:19.660 Yeah.

00:52:19.880 I mean, there you go, right?

00:52:21.280 Like, come on.

00:52:22.180 And if they don't admit this kind of basic truth, what kind of truth can you expect from

00:52:28.520 them?

00:52:28.680 You know, we've got some islands.

00:52:29.720 We could probably just give them an island, see how they go.

00:52:32.140 Yeah.

00:52:32.580 We can't.

00:52:33.240 You say this has to be YouTube-friendly.

00:52:35.160 I mean, we can't even discuss some of the things.

00:52:37.380 I know.

00:52:38.040 I know.

00:52:38.920 He can, but somehow.

00:52:40.520 But I can't.

00:52:42.440 Then you get Extinction Rebellion International Solidarity.

00:52:47.980 What?

00:52:48.760 Extinction Rebellion.

00:52:49.880 What have they got to do with this? 0.98

00:52:51.200 Well, because this is all gay race communism. 1.00

00:52:54.120 Oh, yeah, of course. 0.99

00:52:55.000 Yeah.

00:52:55.780 This is the sort of long and short of it.

00:52:58.360 Is the Extinction part what they want to do to white people? 0.63

00:53:01.680 Good question.

00:53:02.440 That guy there is called Lee Jasper, isn't he?

00:53:04.880 The guy that's second from the right.

00:53:07.640 Yes.

00:53:08.320 Yeah, yeah.

00:53:08.920 He used to be quite prominent, an anti-British campaigner.

00:53:12.160 And they've organised something, Operation Black Vote.

00:53:15.800 Try organising something called Operation White Vote. 0.92

00:53:19.600 See how far you get.

00:53:20.380 Or just Operation Christian Vote.

00:53:22.500 See how that goes for you.

00:53:24.480 See how that goes for you.

00:53:26.300 That's happening now with Gammonzilla.

00:53:28.260 Yeah, well, that's true.

00:53:29.860 That's why they're so afraid of it.

00:53:31.060 And then there are these guys who are pretty much openly communists, more or less calling

00:53:35.060 for the abolition of private property. 0.52

00:53:36.520 So it's just sort of, you know, rather obviously gay-race communism. 0.93

00:53:42.940 People who are failures or who, more interestingly, are not failures but identify as failures. 0.95

00:53:47.820 Yes.

00:53:48.200 More interesting.

00:53:48.900 That they have this neurotic belief that they are persecuted.

00:53:55.340 Yes.

00:53:55.540 Or that they would be higher up were it not for these bad forces.

00:53:59.920 Yep.

00:54:00.020 And it is those people that have that kind of neuroticism.

00:54:02.700 Neuroticism is associated with Machiavellianism.

00:54:04.580 Yes, yes, yes.

00:54:05.020 So if you see the world as a place where you're disempowered and as a place that's frightening

00:54:10.700 and unpleasant, then you want to take power over it.

00:54:13.800 Yep.

00:54:14.200 But you fear a fair fight.

00:54:16.260 You can't do so overtly because you fear losing that fight.

00:54:18.840 So you do so in this manipulative, covert way, pulling on the heartstrings of naive people.

00:54:25.120 Yep.

00:54:25.320 Using manipulative terms that are elastic, like anti-racist or racist.

00:54:29.800 Yep.

00:54:30.040 And then people take you seriously because they don't want to feel bad about themselves

00:54:34.480 or feel that they're of low status or whatever.

00:54:36.660 And we get to this point where we even entertain this nonsense.

00:54:41.580 It's insane.

00:54:42.500 And remember, the foreign secretary or the former foreign secretary used to be a backer of this stuff,

00:54:46.660 David Lammy.

00:54:47.660 So let's not forget that kind of detail.

00:54:50.640 But then there's the law firm that sort of tried to capitalize on this.

00:54:54.160 And I don't have a link for them, I'm afraid.

00:54:56.760 They're called Lay Day. 0.96

00:54:58.940 They sued Britain on behalf of the Mau Mau. 0.97

00:55:01.960 Got 20 million pounds, press around 6 or 7 million pounds in their own fees.

00:55:06.040 They sued Britain on behalf of the Mau Mau. 0.97

00:55:09.300 Yes.

00:55:09.780 Sorry, did I hear you right?

00:55:11.040 Yes, you did.

00:55:11.540 Have you seen the film Adios Africa?

00:55:14.240 No, I haven't.

00:55:14.940 Africa Adios, where it looks at the decolonization of Africa and it looks at the things the Mau Mau did. 0.99

00:55:21.800 Yep.

00:55:21.920 I think it was 100 British people, including women and children, who they just massacred and often in the most brutal possible way.

00:55:30.780 Yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:55:31.700 I fully believe that this is sort of an old thing there.

00:55:35.880 One of the most serious allegations is that Lay Day did not pay out compensation in full and failed to disclose its list of victims because some names were fabricated.

00:55:47.940 So apparently Lay Day is accused of.

00:55:49.840 It hasn't been proven.

00:55:50.700 But the Kenyans claimed that after they sued on behalf of the Mau Mau and Lay Day represented them, Lay Day made away with some of their money.

00:56:02.300 They also sued BP because BP used a militia to protect their own assets in Colombia from other militias.

00:56:09.120 They sued the British government for Iraq over torture allegations, got some people three million pounds, but then they ended up again being accused of misconduct.

00:56:20.500 They got cleared from it, it should be said, but it came close.

00:56:26.380 And one of the allegations was that one of the solicitors of Lay Day destroyed a key document at the center of the inquiry into alleged torture,

00:56:35.940 suggesting that the Iraqis that were detained by British forces were members of an armed insurgency rather than innocent civilians.

00:56:42.880 So the allegation here is a quite serious one.

00:56:46.880 They sued Britain, sued Britain over emissions for cars, sued Britain for unexploded munitions.

00:56:55.600 So basically horrific, greedy lawyers partnering with communists, traitors, and others demanding more and more money.

00:57:03.820 And as we've sort of mentioned in the segment, slavery was always normal.

00:57:08.020 It happened throughout the world.

00:57:09.020 It was only the British who ever ended it. 0.99

00:57:11.200 And the lack of development in Africa isn't because of colonialism and isn't because of slavery.

00:57:15.480 It's because of factors within Africans' own control. 0.99

00:57:19.120 Or it's because of the behaviors of Africans. 1.00

00:57:21.340 Everybody's responsible for their own country. 0.66

00:57:24.020 And if you insist on reparations, what do you call welfare and foreign aid?

00:57:29.000 And if it goes one way in terms of reparations for slavery, what about reparations for crime?

00:57:34.360 If you're going to have this conversation, you're going to force people to have other conversations with you.

00:57:38.920 You're not allowed to do that.

00:57:40.200 Yeah, and what they're assuming is that there is still some goodwill here.

00:57:44.880 But really there isn't.

00:57:47.500 There is zero goodwill here anymore.

00:57:49.380 They are destroying the goodwill that was there.

00:57:52.160 Exactly.

00:57:52.840 Which was there.

00:57:54.460 By pushing people so far.

00:57:56.760 Exactly.

00:57:56.900 But that's the problem.

00:57:57.640 Exactly.

00:57:57.780 They can't help themselves. 0.99

00:57:59.820 People like Diane Abbott are such bitter, nasty people that deep down hate themselves. 0.99

00:58:05.800 Yes. 1.00

00:58:06.400 And thus become narcissistic like she is.

00:58:09.240 That they can't help that they will always be so bitter that they can't know.

00:58:12.960 They don't have the impulse control almost to be able to draw the line and say,

00:58:18.540 hang on, we might be pushing people a bit far here.

00:58:21.240 It's almost like an abusive relationship with some girl that has borderline personality or something.

00:58:26.080 She doesn't understand that eventually she'll push the chap so far that he'll just say we're up ending this.

00:58:31.940 Yes.

00:58:32.760 And I can't.

00:58:34.000 Yeah, there's some positive sides to this, maybe.

00:58:35.780 I don't know.

00:58:36.440 But this is too much.

00:58:37.800 And that's what they're doing.

00:58:40.320 And that's what Lenny Henry's doing.

00:58:41.700 It's weird, actually.

00:58:42.920 I remember when I was about seven, our teacher, Mrs. Rusby, asked us to draw our favourite character from telly.

00:58:49.860 And then she set up this thing that looked like a telly and scrolled it round so it looked like things were moving.

00:58:56.080 And everyone, there was a big queue for the pink pencils.

00:58:59.040 Right.

00:58:59.600 Because everyone was, but I didn't need a brown pencil.

00:59:02.380 I didn't have to wait.

00:59:03.380 Because the person that I drew was Lenny Henry.

00:59:06.600 And I thought he was great.

00:59:08.960 And he was really funny.

00:59:09.920 And there was Lenny Henry's show.

00:59:11.680 And there was various other things he did.

00:59:13.700 There was genuine goodwill.

00:59:14.940 And that goodwill is gone.

00:59:16.380 Imagine how...

00:59:16.920 How, in the interest of time, let me go through a couple of the comments.

00:59:22.500 Because we have another segment that I really want your views on.

00:59:25.880 Ooh.

00:59:27.380 Chris H. says, Lotus Eaters Schill, if you are not a member, join just for the Friday Lads Hour.

00:59:34.380 Dan made Monopoly into the perfect reflection of modern UK.

00:59:38.360 Yes.

00:59:39.720 Firas got radical and Bo went from cocky to a broken man.

00:59:42.940 Very funny.

00:59:43.520 It was absolutely hilarious.

00:59:44.920 I'm trying to get Samsung to put me on for a...

00:59:47.020 If you haven't watched it, you should absolutely watch it.

00:59:50.040 It was just too much.

00:59:52.480 Dan did an incredible job capturing the evil randomness of the UK economy.

01:00:00.500 J.M. Denton says, don't worry about reparations.

01:00:02.720 The Middle East will help us pay. 0.99

01:00:04.240 There is no reason they'd only ask us to pay for African slavery, right? 1.00

01:00:07.420 Yeah.

01:00:07.820 Good luck with that.

01:00:08.740 Sigil Stone says, well, apart from medicine, irrigation, health, roads, cheese and education, baths and soccer, what have the British ever done for us?

01:00:17.820 And a litany of other things.

01:00:19.460 Yep.

01:00:19.980 Yep.

01:00:20.340 Yep.

01:00:20.620 Steam engine.

01:00:21.880 Anyone want to go with that?

01:00:22.800 We birthed the Western world.

01:00:23.240 Industrial Revolution.

01:00:26.140 Tiffenel says, Japan had an official slave system from the Yamato period.

01:00:29.860 Yep.

01:00:32.360 Somebody's calling you.

01:00:33.380 Called Avon.

01:00:34.160 Hello.

01:00:34.440 So, the hapsification, the Industrial Revolution is what made the West great and built the West. 1.00

01:00:40.140 I would argue that it was ahead even before that, but yes.

01:00:43.200 Is it just Western?

01:00:43.880 And this helped Britain in its fight to end the slave trade.

01:00:46.260 Absolutely.

01:00:48.820 Finland had slaves.

01:00:50.640 Vikings took slaves. 1.00

01:00:51.480 It's just an idiot. 1.00

01:00:52.880 Vikings took slaves. 1.00

01:00:55.540 I don't know quite what you're saying.

01:00:56.900 Are you saying that Finland had slaves because the Vikings took slaves?

01:01:01.440 Yeah.

01:01:01.540 The Vikings are from Norway.

01:01:02.880 Yeah.

01:01:03.080 So, let's not call each other names.

01:01:06.780 Sigil Stone says, so how about this?

01:01:08.520 We'll pay them reparations, but they have to go back to where we stole them from.

01:01:12.740 Secretly, our NGOs in Africa will still be there to steal our money back.

01:01:16.280 Well, that is very much what the NGOs steal.

01:01:19.900 Hapsification again.

01:01:20.740 They will never ask the Oyo Empire, Kingdom of Daomei, Empire of Mali, Kingdom of Congo,

01:01:25.260 Kingdom of Benin, Kingdom of Zanjibar, just Britain.

01:01:28.000 Yep.

01:01:28.260 Benin is modern day Dahomey. 0.96

01:01:29.900 They're one and the same, but okay.

01:01:31.020 Yeah.

01:01:31.360 Just a small.

01:01:32.060 Pop, pop, pop.

01:01:34.280 Yeah.

01:01:36.020 And then the last comment.

01:01:37.700 What has always bugged me the most is when I read about Hangout-Independence.

01:01:42.820 They ask for reparations for what Pakistan did to them. 0.94

01:01:47.000 Not sure I got that, but okay.

01:01:48.320 Anyway, moving on to the next segment here.

01:01:51.540 The left in the United States have really lost their minds, and Trump needs to do something about it.

01:02:00.800 Over the weekend, we had the No Kings protests in the USA.

01:02:05.580 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:02:07.840 Are you saying we wasn't Kangs? 1.00

01:02:12.840 And shit? 1.00

01:02:14.340 I, yeah. 1.00

01:02:15.840 Yeah, I'm not going down.

01:02:17.540 I'm not going there.

01:02:19.480 Thanks for that.

01:02:20.880 Thanks for that.

01:02:21.640 But the left is clearly expressing a bit of murderous range. 0.85

01:02:29.280 So this guy wants Trump shot, essentially, and demands better snipers. 0.99

01:02:35.980 This gentleman here says that ICE agents need to get shot and wiped out. 0.98

01:02:45.380 A madness, isn't it? 0.99

01:02:46.420 It's absolutely madness how absolutely...

01:02:48.860 Are they allowed to incite murder like that in America?

01:02:51.840 No.

01:02:52.580 Like outright incitement to murder?

01:02:55.180 I think that crosses a line.

01:02:57.560 So it's really up to the feds to decide.

01:02:59.960 It's not free speech.

01:03:00.660 They're just so repugnant, aren't they? 0.99

01:03:03.160 They're just so nasty. 0.99

01:03:04.300 I'm sure you're going to like them more when you watch this dance. 0.70

01:03:07.560 There ain't no Kang, there ain't no Kang in the USA.

01:03:11.480 There was enough peeling down.

01:03:13.760 Yeah, there is Nate.

01:03:15.040 There is Nate.

01:03:18.140 I'd like to concentrate on the one with the yellow shirt and the black thing under it,

01:03:21.580 who is a woman who has shaved her hair like that. 1.00

01:03:25.320 Now, let's just think about this.

01:03:27.140 What are you doing when you do that?

01:03:29.000 Basically, it's kind of like Apo-Semitism. 0.64

01:03:31.380 It's making yourself ugly and startling in order to say to people,

01:03:36.600 I am dangerous, stay away. 0.61

01:03:39.000 Right.

01:03:39.260 Like a wasp.

01:03:40.140 But it's not a wasp, it's a hoverfly.

01:03:41.940 Yes.

01:03:42.240 It's not dangerous.

01:03:43.360 She just wants people to think she is because she's neurotic and she fears people. 0.70

01:03:47.720 Secondly, why would you do that? 0.98

01:03:49.580 Why would you make yourself ugly like that?

01:03:50.900 It's like expressing externally how you feel about yourself on the youth side.

01:03:54.820 Yes.

01:03:55.460 And thirdly, it's kind of like what I was saying earlier, borderline personality.

01:03:58.660 They self-harm to draw attention to themselves and to feel in control of themselves.

01:04:03.160 Narcissism.

01:04:03.360 If you feel, yeah, it crosses over with narcissism quite strongly.

01:04:06.220 But if you feel that you're ghastly, then one of the ways that you deal with it is by controlling

01:04:12.680 the ghastliness, by saying I'm ghastly because I want to be ghastly, not because I am ghastly.

01:04:17.560 And that's what she's done.

01:04:18.540 She's shaved her hair off.

01:04:19.840 It's self-harming.

01:04:20.980 It's drawing attention to herself. 0.88

01:04:22.360 And it's a way of controlling her negative emotions about herself.

01:04:26.680 And so that's exactly what I would expect.

01:04:29.100 You're fine though, don't you?

01:04:30.080 The physiognomy of someone, well, not just physiognomy, but you can tell a lot about someone

01:04:35.060 with how they look.

01:04:35.940 I know exactly what that woman thinks. 1.00

01:04:38.540 My brilliant book, How to Judge People by What They Look Like.

01:04:41.140 There you go.

01:04:41.980 Plug it. 0.84

01:04:42.820 My book, How to Judge People by What They Look Like, goes into some detail on this.

01:04:48.180 AKA, physiognomy checks out.

01:04:49.920 And you have another book that just came out?

01:04:51.880 Oh, well, the one's just come out.

01:04:52.720 Yes, that's called Genius Under House Arrest, The Cancellation of James Thompson, which

01:04:57.820 looks...

01:04:58.540 James Watson.

01:04:59.140 Sorry.

01:05:00.080 That's James Thompson's colleague of mine.

01:05:02.040 Let's do that again.

01:05:02.920 Oh, no, we're live.

01:05:03.660 Genius Under House Arrest, The Cancellation of James Watson.

01:05:08.260 And that looks...

01:05:09.400 Although James Thompson is very clever as well.

01:05:11.780 He's not Under House Arrest.

01:05:12.600 And that looks at how we've become anti-genius, because of the way in which feminine values 1.00

01:05:17.720 have basically taken...

01:05:18.340 Of equality and harm avoidance have taken over society and trumped even a belief in truth.

01:05:22.660 It's a really good book.

01:05:23.700 I just read it.

01:05:24.280 It's really excellent.

01:05:24.960 I recommend you read it.

01:05:25.840 But the No King's Riot really didn't go very peacefully.

01:05:32.460 The media claimed that it was mostly peaceful.

01:05:37.120 As usual, it didn't.

01:05:39.200 And as usual, Seattle and Oregon were the centers of violence.

01:05:42.640 They got pepper sprayed as they were attacking ICE.

01:05:47.860 They're doing their best to basically make ICE unable to operate, thereby forcing the state

01:05:55.860 to accept the open borders of Biden and their consequences.

01:05:58.920 And there is a lesson here for the West, because when the time for deportations comes, these

01:06:06.580 dygenic leftists will pretty much do the same exact thing all over Europe. 0.99

01:06:11.200 Yeah.

01:06:11.560 And I would argue that Britain, Spain, France are especially vulnerable because of the power 0.76

01:06:17.680 of the lunatic left in those countries.

01:06:21.280 So we're going to see more of these scenes here.

01:06:23.220 And this was what makes it so important for Trump to resolve the issue and to actually

01:06:28.800 force these guys to back down. 0.98

01:06:32.120 Here, this guy is walking around saying, would you like to kill Nazis with me? 0.98

01:06:38.600 Where are the Nazis? 0.99

01:06:40.060 I don't know.

01:06:40.840 No, that's interesting because they term their enemies Nazis, which their enemies are not.

01:06:47.280 Yes. 1.00

01:06:47.700 And then argue that you should kill Nazis. 1.00

01:06:50.080 Yes. 0.99

01:06:50.280 So it's in a very covert and manipulative way that basically, via that process, and there's 0.99

01:06:58.060 plausible deniability, saying, kill these people. 0.98

01:07:01.800 Oh, yeah. 1.00

01:07:02.100 Yes, yes.

01:07:02.520 Absolutely.

01:07:02.920 People.

01:07:03.340 Absolutely.

01:07:03.960 Absolutely.

01:07:04.460 It's inciting murder.

01:07:05.440 I mean, this guy sort of puts out a video about how it actually operates from a communist

01:07:11.300 directive in 1943.

01:07:12.740 And basically, the communists were, since the 40s, saying that the way to label anybody who

01:07:20.980 disagrees with you is to call them a Nazi or a fascist.

01:07:24.320 And as you keep on repeating this allegation, it becomes entrenched in the mindset of the

01:07:30.160 populace so that violence becomes more palatable against these kinds of groups.

01:07:35.540 So this isn't an original tactic.

01:07:40.360 It's amazing, though, isn't it?

01:07:41.460 How it's...

01:07:41.980 Because, I mean, that's gone now.

01:07:43.520 Yes.

01:07:43.720 No one cares about being called a Nazi.

01:07:45.000 No one cares about being called a fascist.

01:07:46.320 It's the same as no one cares about being called a racist.

01:07:48.400 Yes.

01:07:48.700 It's done.

01:07:49.300 It's played up.

01:07:50.260 You know, you've had your fill.

01:07:52.840 Yes.

01:07:53.180 Right?

01:07:53.420 Those vouchers are all used up now.

01:07:55.440 Pretty much.

01:07:55.600 All the guilt's gone.

01:07:57.500 It was fascinating that it managed to take a hold for as long as that.

01:08:01.200 Yes.

01:08:01.520 Absolutely amazing.

01:08:02.660 Absolutely amazing.

01:08:03.200 Incredible stuff.

01:08:05.100 And the problem with...

01:08:06.860 Sorry, just to counter it.

01:08:08.740 Again, counter myself, not counter myself, but to add a little bit more.

01:08:12.360 We're so hung up on this mid...

01:08:15.580 You know, the mid...

01:08:18.360 20th century.

01:08:19.260 Yeah, mid-20th century nonsense.

01:08:22.000 And the constant banging on about it.

01:08:23.880 It's just...

01:08:24.920 It's insane.

01:08:25.580 I just...

01:08:26.020 Yeah.

01:08:26.160 Sorry, I can't. 0.79

01:08:27.160 I mean, it is very much the foundational religion of these crazies.

01:08:31.320 It's portrayed as, and it kind of was, a turning point in history.

01:08:37.020 Yes.

01:08:37.280 And there's an extent to which there's before...

01:08:40.480 It's been politicized, obviously, but there's before and after World War II.

01:08:44.320 Yes.

01:08:44.500 As you say, it's foundational.

01:08:45.680 Yes.

01:08:45.860 World War II and various things about it are the foundational mythology of the post-World War religion.

01:08:55.140 Yes.

01:08:55.380 And you can't have a rational debate even over something like Churchill.

01:09:00.040 Yes.

01:09:00.840 Try doing it.

01:09:01.700 What AA calls the boomer truth regime is very, very strong.

01:09:06.420 People that are otherwise sensible find it difficult to cope with the idea that Churchill was obviously a psychopath who played his part in bringing about World War II.

01:09:16.780 And this is true.

01:09:18.100 And he was funded by people that wanted a war.

01:09:21.100 Yes.

01:09:21.760 But we can't talk about that.

01:09:23.600 I think that what we must talk about is a couple of things.

01:09:28.920 One of them is that it was the communists who won World War II and won also in the West.

01:09:33.720 And that we have been in the West living under some kind of idealization of communism for quite some time.

01:09:43.720 And now it's becoming more and more open.

01:09:45.620 And the communists are increasingly allying themselves with the Islamists who will A, destroy the West in its entirety and B, turn on the leftists and murder every last one of them when they get power. 0.93

01:09:57.940 Are you proposing or stating that Islamists don't play nice for communists?

01:10:05.860 Are you saying that?

01:10:07.720 Do they maybe betray them?

01:10:11.260 Is there any history of that anymore?

01:10:13.560 I'm saying that they murder all of them, yes.

01:10:14.620 Well, yes, yes, yes.

01:10:16.280 Someone should tell Zach Polanski that.

01:10:18.560 Well, there's a lot of things to be... 0.99

01:10:23.500 Someone should tell a gay Jewish man what Islamists do. 1.00

01:10:28.760 I think we're bleeping that out, yes. 1.00

01:10:31.160 He's a gay Jewish man. 0.95

01:10:32.600 Yes.

01:10:33.000 These are temporary coalitions.

01:10:35.700 And when the coalitions are...

01:10:37.000 For example, we have weird coalitions among conservatives at the moment.

01:10:39.520 We have a coalition of traditionalist conservatives and feminists who are trans-exclusionary.

01:10:45.320 Yes.

01:10:45.700 And that coalition is unstable.

01:10:47.880 Yes.

01:10:48.160 And eventually that coalition will come apart.

01:10:50.460 And it's the same on the left. 0.95

01:10:51.400 You have a coalition at the moment between the communists, the white, the self-hating whites, as it were. 0.95

01:10:57.260 Yes. 0.97

01:10:57.560 And woke, including homosexuality, transsexuality, and Islam, which strongly condemns those people.

01:11:05.600 And in...

01:11:06.200 You can't point it out.

01:11:06.920 In one of the sort of manuals of the Muslim Brotherhood...

01:11:10.180 Not allowed.

01:11:12.220 In one of the manuals of the Muslim Brotherhood, they explain clearly that they want to ally with forces that would help them destroy the West from within. 0.97

01:11:19.280 And they were speaking about that since 1991, I believe.

01:11:23.840 And they'd had that idea for even longer.

01:11:26.520 So this is not new at all.

01:11:29.300 But I wanted to get back to this issue of Trump and dealing with these groups.

01:11:34.300 What's happening is that these guys get arrested, but then they get released.

01:11:41.360 And what do they do the minute they get released?

01:11:43.840 They go back to conducting new attacks.

01:11:47.200 So it's not just that they are getting more violent.

01:11:50.240 It's that the state really isn't doing anywhere near enough.

01:11:52.760 And they're getting more organized.

01:11:55.540 And they're becoming sillier getting dressed up in animal costumes to pretend that they're...

01:12:00.580 I don't know if it's a kink.

01:12:02.400 I don't know if it's...

01:12:03.320 I don't know what's going on there.

01:12:04.640 But I thought that was fascinating.

01:12:06.680 Is that again?

01:12:07.360 Furries.

01:12:08.100 Yeah.

01:12:08.580 If that's what they are.

01:12:09.600 Well, furries carrying rocks to use them to attack ice.

01:12:13.260 Amazing.

01:12:14.300 And the political leadership, they ask Jerry Nadler, do you condemn attacks on ice agents?

01:12:19.800 And he says, what attacks?

01:12:20.940 Amazing.

01:12:22.220 This comes a couple of weeks after they had snipers shooting into an ice facility.

01:12:26.880 Yeah.

01:12:27.320 And accidentally killing the migrants. 0.99

01:12:29.160 But that's a different story. 0.71

01:12:31.140 But they deny that this is happening.

01:12:33.080 Amazing.

01:12:33.980 Pelosi is encouraging this.

01:12:36.180 What's his name?

01:12:36.720 Chuck Schumer is encouraging this.

01:12:39.300 And you see this fatty here.

01:12:42.640 I know their opinion.

01:12:43.480 Hey! 0.99

01:12:45.180 You ever heard of those? 1.00

01:12:46.300 You fat ass! 1.00

01:12:49.140 And she's sort of bragging about the Charlie Kirk murder. 1.00

01:12:53.740 And it turns out it's a school teacher.

01:12:57.000 Ha! 0.89

01:12:58.040 Well, that's hardly surprising as academia is. 1.00

01:13:00.920 I mean, academia and NGOs are really full of freaking psychopaths. 0.98

01:13:06.840 And the Democrats aren't doing anything to condemn this. 0.98

01:13:10.140 They are just sort of...

01:13:11.700 It's funny, isn't it?

01:13:12.740 Because they're next on the chopping block, right?

01:13:15.080 Like, they don't realize that.

01:13:16.620 Because that was part of...

01:13:18.040 I think it was Oregon.

01:13:19.080 I think it was Portland, Oregon.

01:13:19.800 Yes.

01:13:19.980 Because it was the mayor, wasn't it?

01:13:21.000 Who came out and was like, hello, how do you do, fellow kids?

01:13:24.400 Yeah.

01:13:24.540 I'm with you.

01:13:25.220 And then they were like, no, we're going to burn your house down, actually.

01:13:27.400 Pretty much.

01:13:27.860 Yes.

01:13:28.080 It's like, you're next on this block.

01:13:30.460 Like, you need to get a handle on this.

01:13:32.000 They won't stop.

01:13:33.380 They don't want to.

01:13:34.420 They absolutely don't want to.

01:13:35.880 They want to keep on denying it and keep on testing Trump and provoking Trump.

01:13:39.300 And I looked at some of the stuff that Mike Shelby has been saying.

01:13:42.220 I'm hoping to invite him for RealPolitik to have a chat with him.

01:13:47.360 What they're trying to organize, it seems, through these protests is some kind of color revolution.

01:13:54.100 It seems that over the No Kings protests, they managed to get around 3 million people mobilized,

01:14:00.200 which is quite substantial.

01:14:01.820 That's quite...

01:14:02.300 Which is sort of 1% of the American population or thereabouts, which is a very substantial number.

01:14:08.060 And they are trying to register them for elections.

01:14:11.040 But when they register them, they get their email addresses.

01:14:13.820 And then they use them to both mobilize for elections, mobilize for getting other people to come out and vote,

01:14:23.480 but mobilize them for further protests and maintain a very high level of pressure against Trump.

01:14:29.740 And this is getting to a point where they're cooperating with Mexican cartels to get weapons.

01:14:39.100 Wow. Okay. Yeah.

01:14:40.200 And so with Trump working on a couple of things, he's working on doing a lot of redistricting in the middle of an election cycle.

01:14:50.020 Part of it by getting the Civil Rights Act out of redistricting so that race isn't a factor in drawing electoral districts for the House of Representatives.

01:14:59.740 When that happens, the Democrats could lose 10, 12, 20 seats.

01:15:05.300 And they're doing some redistricting within Republican states.

01:15:09.160 And that's going to cost the Democrats a few seats, meaning that they can never control the House again as easily.

01:15:14.960 Plus, the next census is going to exclude illegal aliens, meaning that the representation of northeastern states and western states is going to decline with the representation of... 0.94

01:15:27.960 That's just corrupt. 0.62

01:15:29.120 Lie over country. 0.50

01:15:29.900 Illegal aliens on the census and then draw up the electoral system accordingly. 0.97

01:15:34.700 That's incredible.

01:15:35.560 Yes.

01:15:35.920 So when they're counted, it boosts the number of House seats that they get, and it boosts the number of electors in the electoral college that they get.

01:15:44.900 So for the Democrats, keeping the illegal aliens and counting the illegal aliens in the census is important. 0.91

01:15:51.640 And so Trump is doing these three things.

01:15:54.080 And these guys are preparing a color revolution and are getting weapons from the Mexican cartels. 0.62

01:15:59.620 Oh, yeah.

01:16:00.320 I mean, anyone.

01:16:00.760 Anyone that's in bed with them.

01:16:01.880 When the midterms happen in 2026, in November 2026, the Democrats are going to come ready with a army that they know is mobilized, with the Antifa and Trantifa and other leftist goons, and with a narrative that says that the loss of the House in 2026 was not legitimate.

01:16:22.460 And therefore, they need to escalate into violence, which is why the political leadership of the Democrats is not in any way condemning the violence, to get to a position where they run into the 2028 elections and they can really pull off some serious escalation.

01:16:39.320 So Trump needs to get on top of this, both in terms of targeting the cartels, but also in terms of not just listing Antifa as a terrorist organization, which he's already done, but going after the financiers.

01:16:52.220 And if you dig deep enough into the financiers, you're going to find, not just Soros, you're going to find, I will bet, Mexican cartel money involved as well.

01:17:00.600 Highly likely.

01:17:01.800 And if you look at the way in which, for example, ActBlue was able to funnel donations from people's accounts without them knowing it, without them being actually their account.

01:17:12.020 So they did this thing where, Ed, you're a 90-year-old whatever living in your home, and then suddenly there are donations going to the Democratic Party in your name, and you don't know anything about them.

01:17:24.400 So they're not taking money from your account, but the donations are being registered to you.

01:17:29.240 Right, right.

01:17:29.520 So they did that with a lot of elderly citizens behind their backs, and to me this looks very clearly that this is money being laundered from the cartels.

01:17:39.140 And now they're arming Antifa.

01:17:40.840 It's accelerationism.

01:17:41.880 There's a level on which I, you know, in this book, Woke Eugenics, on this.

01:17:47.680 It's like, I think wokeness is an evolutionary adaptation, as you know, whereby you induce people who are genetically sickly to basically resign from the gene pool.

01:18:00.680 Right.

01:18:00.880 And you collapse society, collapse complex society, such as the people that are sickly, can't survive. 1.00

01:18:06.900 And that's what the woke are doing. 0.69

01:18:08.140 The woke are there to kill off the woke and the semi-woke. 0.97

01:18:10.680 Yes.

01:18:10.920 And also to cause people that are right-wing and conservative to bond with each other and to create separate communities that weather the storm.

01:18:20.560 Even something like this, alternative media that's conservative, 20 years ago, there was nothing like this.

01:18:26.900 Yes.

01:18:27.220 There was just a few people meeting above pubs.

01:18:29.340 Yes.

01:18:29.500 And now we're able to create this whole community.

01:18:32.280 And that will, because we feel, rightly, we feel persecuted and under attack, we are all kind of Christian fundamentalists now.

01:18:39.580 Yes.

01:18:40.040 In the sense that we are in the world, the woke world, but not of the woke world.

01:18:44.680 Right.

01:18:45.200 And that kind of behaviour is only going to further that sense of in-group bonding, further polarisation, further the process of breaking away.

01:18:53.820 So what you're saying is that we may eventually be rid of these people.

01:18:57.580 Oh yeah, eventually, yeah.

01:18:58.960 But I think it will be in a context of socio-economic decline and people will break away into sort of a little, a bit like in South Africa.

01:19:07.760 So, yeah, yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's, I, I don't see it getting better before it gets considerably worse.

01:19:14.820 And this, this, this, this stuff is really dangerous.

01:19:18.900 It's obvious that they're preparing for a big escalation and it's very obvious that the same exact playbook will be used anywhere in Europe that tries to fix the problems of legal and illegal immigration.

01:19:31.640 It's also obvious that if these problems with legal and illegal immigration don't get fixed, then the scenarios are extremely negative for the survival of the West.

01:19:43.140 So there's an existential fight with these guys and they see it as existential because their power is piqued.

01:19:50.400 Their ability to influence people through words has piqued because everything that they say is completely discredited.

01:19:56.500 Reparations this, Islam is tolerant, blah, blah, blah. 1.00

01:19:59.600 Look guys, none of this is true.

01:20:00.760 We all know that none of this is true.

01:20:02.320 I think they also see it as existential because if you look at the psychology of these kinds of people, right?

01:20:06.760 So narcissism, custody disorders or whatever, this phrase that they use, I feel literally unsafe.

01:20:12.420 Yes.

01:20:12.760 That is true. 1.00

01:20:13.400 If you're crazy like that, your heart starts to beat. 1.00

01:20:16.140 You really feel that you might die. 1.00

01:20:18.220 Yes. 0.99

01:20:18.460 Or that you might do something to yourself that you can't control and kill yourself. 0.99

01:20:21.880 Yes. 0.65

01:20:22.080 That's how they feel.

01:20:23.240 Yes.

01:20:23.440 And I think that's genuine.

01:20:24.720 But they often play that out.

01:20:25.900 So yeah, you're right.

01:20:27.240 Yeah.

01:20:27.640 It's genuine.

01:20:28.140 So, you know,

01:20:31.780 one of the commentators says,

01:20:34.040 dread not log.

01:20:36.240 It bugs me when people say that Trump doesn't do anything when he's constantly being harassed by lawsuits,

01:20:40.580 internal sabotage, and 50 fires around him.

01:20:42.860 Look, I agree completely.

01:20:44.320 I agree completely.

01:20:47.460 But these are militant organizations that are mobilizing for a big escalation.

01:20:52.280 Yeah.

01:20:52.500 I mean, priority, right?

01:20:53.860 The priority must be domestic rather than Israel, Venezuela, Mexico, etc.

01:21:01.780 Mexico just sort of seal it off as much as you can.

01:21:05.580 Obviously, that's very important.

01:21:07.980 But the domestic pressure is huge.

01:21:10.960 And that must be factored into your thinking.

01:21:14.620 Pavillon P says,

01:21:15.780 have you seen this?

01:21:17.340 Have you heard about this?

01:21:18.260 There's an up-and-coming YouTube channel called State of Politics.

01:21:22.380 Very based.

01:21:23.580 I've never heard of it.

01:21:24.420 What is this?

01:21:25.020 Check it out, guys.

01:21:25.600 So basically, me and Beau,

01:21:27.020 we started a little project just together to record our conversations on things.

01:21:32.860 And that's it.

01:21:33.500 It's just a bit of fun for me and Beau.

01:21:35.240 But you guys seem to like it.

01:21:36.620 Do go and check it out, please.

01:21:37.940 I think you will enjoy it.

01:21:39.360 Please do.

01:21:39.740 So, Sigil Stone 17,

01:21:41.960 they can't dig into the financiers of Antifa

01:21:44.160 because the Epstein list doesn't exist

01:21:46.940 and they're our greatest ally.

01:21:50.680 Yes.

01:21:53.600 Tiffenell says,

01:21:54.780 Finland did play a considerable role in the history of slavery

01:21:57.460 as a source of slaves.

01:21:58.680 Okay.

01:21:59.000 That's what I said.

01:21:59.740 That's exactly what was said.

01:22:03.100 Let's see some of the comments from the website.

01:22:05.940 Do you want to read some of yours?

01:22:07.420 Yes.

01:22:08.060 Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

01:22:08.820 So, what have we got?

01:22:10.560 Sophie Liv says,

01:22:12.580 I found it a little fascinating that in Islamic societies,

01:22:18.100 the burden of SA always falls on the woman. 0.93

01:22:22.100 While in Western feminist countries, 1.00

01:22:24.320 the burden is always on the man.

01:22:26.060 Both just seem incapable of looking at things from a case-by-case basis.

01:22:29.260 Yeah, well, group, thank you.

01:22:30.140 Very dangerously based, yes.

01:22:33.520 Robert Hyde.

01:22:35.080 Oh.

01:22:35.820 What on earth is going on?

01:22:36.780 Can you stop?

01:22:37.800 Good night.

01:22:38.920 Time's in.

01:22:40.700 I need to look at the things.

01:22:41.900 There we go.

01:22:42.240 All right.

01:22:45.600 Thank you very much.

01:22:47.840 Nothing is right.

01:22:48.720 Women would much rather share a single high-value male. 0.99

01:22:52.580 Tinder is the prime example of harems forming around the top 2% of men. 0.89

01:22:56.580 Not healthy for society.

01:22:57.720 Yes, buddy.

01:22:58.560 We know. 0.82

01:22:59.960 If we don't nip Islam in the bud, 1.00

01:23:02.180 the only solution that I see is something like Reconquista.

01:23:04.500 And that has its own horde of horrors.

01:23:06.920 Yeah, absolutely, mate.

01:23:07.920 Absolutely.

01:23:11.380 Nothing will ever satisfy them.

01:23:13.900 From Ed Dutton eating red mutton.

01:23:18.040 Shopping in Sutton for some chocolate button.

01:23:19.760 More slaves were traded in the Arab slave trade than in the Atlantic slave trade.

01:23:26.580 True.

01:23:26.980 And it lasted for much longer.

01:23:28.340 Also true.

01:23:29.300 Yet no Middle Eastern country has apologized for this because it's an honor-based, not shame-based, not guilt-based culture.

01:23:34.600 And they're mostly proud of their conquests.

01:23:37.980 It is only through our weakness that these vultures think that they can get resources from us.

01:23:43.640 Look, it's not because of your weakness.

01:23:45.520 It's because you still have a Christian-formed mind without thinking about Christian natural law and Christian theology properly.

01:23:55.200 That's what makes you weak, I mean.

01:23:57.640 Paul Newbar says,

01:23:58.860 Reparations is giving all of them a one-way ticket.

01:24:02.040 Yes.

01:24:03.080 Nice.

01:24:03.340 Binary Surfer, pay the reparations, hear me out, negotiate it down, and then pay it on condition of deport all diversity. 1.00

01:24:12.040 I'm diverse and I agree with that message. 0.91

01:24:14.720 Russian Garbage Human says, 1.00

01:24:16.540 After accounting for a billion stolen bikes and mobile phones. 0.97

01:24:21.400 I'm not going there.

01:24:24.320 Nice.

01:24:24.860 Sophie Liv again.

01:24:26.480 It is completely worth noticing that these are all old boomers who haven't realized that the hippie age is long over and they are old.

01:24:33.340 Yeah. 0.96

01:24:33.960 That dance was disgusting. 1.00

01:24:35.300 You're absolutely right, Sophie.

01:24:37.760 Joe Schmo, while reprehensible, calling for illegal acts against federal agents is definitely free speech in America.

01:24:44.340 Oh, wow.

01:24:46.100 Okay. 0.86

01:24:46.680 Calling for violence against...

01:24:48.200 I didn't think you were allowed to do that, but okay.

01:24:50.340 Okay.

01:24:52.360 Ed Mutton eating red...

01:24:53.940 Ed Dutton eating red mutton again.

01:24:56.980 The closest thing to kings in America are the judges who are unelected, hold the positions of power for decades,

01:25:01.720 and decide willy-nilly that upholding the law is actually illegal.

01:25:05.400 Absolutely.

01:25:05.940 They invent new rights.

01:25:07.160 They invent new ideas.

01:25:07.960 How many judges in America are elected?

01:25:10.120 Some of them are, but the federal judges are appointed.

01:25:12.940 The federal judges are appointed.

01:25:13.880 And it's a very complicated system when it comes to the judiciary.

01:25:19.440 But a huge number of them are not, in fact, elected.

01:25:22.620 Not that elected judges is an absolutely great idea.

01:25:25.520 That comes with its own problems.

01:25:26.640 You want to show us, Samson, some of the video comments, please?

01:25:35.340 The Robert Heinlein book, Farnham's Freehold, is about a family who got thrown forward in time into a society where blacks enslaved whites.

01:25:44.140 I think such a society is what many Democrats dream of.

01:25:47.520 No responsibilities and everything taken care of by your master.

01:25:55.080 Amazing.

01:25:55.640 It's a great robot, and that's a great point.

01:25:58.340 That's exactly what the Democrats dream of.

01:26:00.700 Your feet of engineering.

01:26:06.940 Miracle robot.

01:26:09.140 So here I am from a union convention here in the village of Lake Placid, New York.

01:26:16.940 This is actually Mirror Lake.

01:26:21.420 Right.

01:26:25.640 Beautiful.

01:26:28.420 Yeah.

01:26:28.800 That part of, like, upstate New York is absolutely gorgeous.

01:26:32.180 Has he just done this?

01:26:34.120 Say again?

01:26:34.580 He's just sent this now.

01:26:36.280 Well, a couple of days ago, or at some point, yes.

01:26:38.640 In the show?

01:26:39.940 Yes.

01:26:40.200 We get people sending us video comments.

01:26:41.780 From America. 0.94

01:26:42.280 So it's like 8 o'clock in the morning where they are.

01:26:44.580 No, it's not right now.

01:26:45.200 I don't think he sent it just at this moment.

01:26:47.300 He could be watching us live.

01:26:48.460 He could not be watching us live.

01:26:49.620 He always sends us very nice video comments.

01:26:52.220 Oh, but it's not like that he's watching.

01:26:53.860 It's not necessarily that it's on the day that he sent this over breakfast.

01:26:57.960 No, that's not necessarily our case.

01:27:01.400 Yes.

01:27:01.780 I can't help but notice that the same style of arguments about the English claim over their ancestral homeland are the exact same arguments used to attack the legitimacy of colonial English nations like Australia.

01:27:19.760 Therefore, we often are forced to put forward an affair of decline for Western culture, not just relying on an appeal to tradition.

01:27:27.980 I'm curious as to what your response is to these people using your own arguments against us.

01:27:36.200 I'm not sure I fully got the gist of it.

01:27:38.160 I didn't get the gist of that either.

01:27:39.120 I didn't also get the gist of that.

01:27:41.000 So all three of us are stumped somewhat.

01:27:43.260 What was that?

01:27:43.820 Our response to them using our own arguments against us.

01:27:47.380 What argument of tradition?

01:27:49.420 What argument does he mean?

01:27:50.520 No, the argument against Australia is having a claim to them.

01:27:53.100 Yeah, so the point is that he's making, sorry, is that in Australia, the arguments from the left is, this isn't your ancestral homeland, right?

01:28:03.860 And so what is our response to them using that as the argument?

01:28:10.600 And that's our argument for our claim to this land, basically.

01:28:12.980 Yes, yes.

01:28:13.700 Oh, okay.

01:28:14.060 Well, I mean, your argument would be, I guess the response would be, what is it now?

01:28:20.600 Not just that, if the Aborigines had built anything, you might have a point. 1.00

01:28:26.000 But you're talking about a stone age society that built absolutely nothing.

01:28:30.860 Also, how far do you go back?

01:28:32.480 New Zealanders.

01:28:33.460 The argument is, why do we even have to have these moral issues?

01:28:36.840 We want it.

01:28:38.320 We took it.

01:28:39.400 Take the L.

01:28:40.020 We control it.

01:28:40.920 Take the L. Take the loss. 0.89

01:28:42.240 And let's fight and may the best man win.

01:28:46.220 Yeah.

01:28:46.380 Which is exactly where it's going in Europe, which is exactly where things are going in

01:28:51.280 Europe, which is exactly the Muslim attitude in Europe, which I think is a little more 1.00

01:28:54.360 honest.

01:28:55.120 But I think the objective reality that nothing was built there also matters.

01:29:01.420 How far back do you want to go?

01:29:02.580 I guess is the argument, isn't it?

01:29:03.940 I mean, New Zealanders.

01:29:05.280 I mean, they weren't there for a great deal of time either.

01:29:10.880 So, I mean, you could go back constantly.

01:29:12.360 The English have been in England longer than the Maori have been in New Zealand. 0.97

01:29:14.640 Yes.

01:29:15.080 Exactly.

01:29:15.680 So, take the L.

01:29:17.160 So, I'm perfectly happy to accept it.

01:29:18.580 We win.

01:29:18.760 Fine.

01:29:19.080 I'm fine.

01:29:19.760 Fine.

01:29:20.080 The Maori are indigenous to New Zealand.

01:29:22.780 Ergo, the English are indigenous to England because they've been there longer than the Maori.

01:29:27.760 And we put the Australians there, so you win because we win. 1.00

01:29:31.740 I mean, and indeed, the Greenlandic have been in Greenland for less time.

01:29:38.380 I mean, the Norse got there first. 0.84

01:29:39.960 Right.

01:29:40.240 And then died out.

01:29:41.840 It was an empty island.

01:29:44.520 So, I'm perfect.

01:29:45.460 And they are an indigenous people.

01:29:47.780 So, I'm perfectly happy.

01:29:49.460 There you go.

01:29:51.440 Any more comments, Samson?

01:29:55.480 Nope.

01:29:56.120 All right.

01:29:56.640 Well, that is all the time that we have.

01:29:58.900 Thank you very much for joining us.

01:30:00.480 I will see you in another half hour for a live episode of RealPolitik.

01:30:05.200 And thank you very much, Ed and Nate, for joining us.

01:30:07.980 Thank you.

01:30:08.260 Thank you.

01:30:08.320 Thank you.

01:30:08.820 Thank you.

01:30:09.140 Thank you.

01:30:09.180 Thank you.

01:30:09.420 Thank you.

01:30:12.740 Thank you.

01:30:21.220 Thank you.
