The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters

00:00:00.000 Good afternoon and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters episode 1320 on the 18th of

00:00:07.420 December 2025. I'm your host Harry joined today by Josh and Firaz and today we're going to be

00:00:14.220 talking about Australia's reaction and rising up to the Islamic terrorism. I'm going to be 1.00

00:00:21.320 talking about the slow death of the honesty box and rural England's traditions because we have a

00:00:29.980 And Josh is going to be giving us a roundup of the weirdest news of the year. It's a Christmas

00:00:35.220 tradition at this point. Now I've already sat through it's not out yet but I have already sat

00:00:40.100 through some some monkey news. Will there be any added monkey news that's happened since then? I'm

00:00:45.840 a strict segregationist for weird news and monkey news. All right okay. I'm very hard line on it. I

00:00:52.560 could add I could like make an addition to your segregation but I won't because it will be clipped

00:00:58.300 as I have been many times before. Lowbrow hey. Lowbrow indeed uh but is there anything else we

00:01:05.560 need to announce Samson? I'll I'll give this announcement then. I hope you're all having

00:01:11.020 a lovely time this Christmas. Well so do I. A week away. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to all of

00:01:16.540 you. I should probably be properly British. No. Take this off. Happy Christmas. Oh no. Lost his tiny

00:01:22.580 hat. What do you know it was a miracle. A virgin birth. Anyway let's get on to let's get into the

00:01:29.340 news. Talk us through the um jolly subject of Islam and Australia. Well let's start with France actually 0.94

00:01:36.120 because uh it seems uh it seems just yesterday in Toulon the police fired at a vehicle that didn't want

00:01:44.740 to stop. It seems the occupants of the vehicle had stolen it. The police got one of the uh thieves in 0.92

00:01:53.280 the neck I believe yes and then the driver managed to run away even though the police were shooting at

00:01:59.480 him. But the officers were suspended for trying to stop a vehicle that actually hit one of their

00:02:05.520 officers. So you know the the regular run-of-the-mill news that has now become normalized in in Europe.

00:02:13.420 So I I know that it's normal now that average citizens are basically prohibited from defending

00:02:18.900 themselves. Yes. Now the police as well. Yes. This is one of the most absurd things I've ever heard.

00:02:24.460 Yep. I I thought it was too crazy to leave out of the segment so I thought I'd open with it.

00:02:29.480 But the theme of the segment is the world a little bit going crazy. And since we last spoke about the

00:02:36.880 Bondi massacre we'd mentioned in that segment that the Germans had thwarted an attack in Bavaria

00:02:43.740 that was targeting a Christmas market. It turns out that they foiled a second one. This time by

00:02:51.180 Central Asians. The previous one was by I think uh Egyptian, Assyrian and three Moroccans.

00:02:58.800 This time it's an unidentified number of Central Asians. Uh oh apparently just one. And was training 1.00

00:03:06.400 as a nurse. So the nurse to terrorism pipeline is apparently a new thing. Last year in the attack in

00:03:15.120 uh Magdeburg it was someone who I believe was working as either a teacher or a psychiatrist or

00:03:22.600 psychologist. And so now we have nurses joining in on the act. It's also worth mentioning wasn't

00:03:28.300 it Magdeburg that it happened before as well. Yes. Another one. Yes. Yes. That was the one that

00:03:34.000 happened last year. It was. By the Saudi guy. Uh he killed a number of people. Wasn't he a doctor or 1.00

00:03:40.500 something? He was a doctor. He was a doctor. You're right. He was a doctor and he was an atheist

00:03:44.940 strangely enough and Shia. So wasn't he the one if he was the doctor who was an atheist wasn't he the 0.98

00:03:51.300 one who they were saying the story became that he was trying to protest Islamic migration into Germany

00:03:58.280 through a terror attack that just happens to have characteristics of Islamic terror attacks. So he had

00:04:05.100 long been very opposed to Islamic immigration and had been warning against it uh as an atheist but he

00:04:12.100 had issues with the German government with his papers and they weren't listening to him and the

00:04:17.600 Saudis were watching his social media because of his attacks on Islam and they told the German

00:04:22.980 government look this guy's losing his mind and he's about to do something you should pay attention

00:04:26.980 and they let it go and then a large number of people died. He's on our radar. He was known to us.

00:04:34.960 Yeah yeah yeah. It keeps on happening. It keeps on happening. And uh before we get into more

00:04:40.680 details on Australia I just wanted to remind you that when Australians were protesting COVID lockdowns

00:04:46.540 this was the reaction from the Australian state. Like armored vehicles, riot police, no dissent,

00:04:54.660 throwing people in camps. Uh the Australians activated the police fully against anybody who in the

00:05:01.980 slightest way broke some of the most draconian COVID rules in the world. I know it's a little bit

00:05:08.520 of a meme but there is some truth to it that because it was founded as a prison island there's

00:05:13.980 still residual elements of this this culture and uh yes it's legal structure in Australia and so

00:05:21.580 they go a lot harder than a lot of other Anglo countries because of this. Well it seems stricter in

00:05:26.880 some states of Australia but in some of those states I remember there was the uh footage that

00:05:30.940 went around of the father trying to hold on to his daughter who is like basically being ripped from

00:05:36.060 him so that they could forcibly vaccinate her. Of course it's a federal country isn't it and so they

00:05:41.740 have certain degrees of variation between different areas. Yeah um and before we go into the latest news

00:05:49.060 from Australia let's talk a little bit about what we know so far uh about the killers in Australia.

00:05:56.420 So the father of the two gunmen uh Sajid Akram and his son Naveed, Sajid being the father,

00:06:03.540 uh first we thought that they were Pakistanis because of the names. It turns out that they were

00:06:08.580 actually Indian Muslims uh not Pakistanis. Not that it makes a difference because Pakistan exists for 0.92

00:06:15.940 Indian Muslims but you know just sort of wanted to clarify that because we got it wrong the last time.

00:06:21.380 Uh but apparently he had bought uh three identical shotguns in the last year and a half most recently

00:06:28.340 in September and this should have been flagged by authorities um because of his son's association

00:06:38.340 with Islamic State and his presence at various protests that were supportive of Islamic radicalism and

00:06:44.740 supportive of of Gaza. Not that the two are the same but in Australia they almost are really um and he

00:06:52.420 was going around buying a bunch of guns including the same gun uh two months apart and it seems that he

00:07:00.100 was preparing for this attack for some time. So this wasn't a spur of the moment attack.

00:07:04.420 Um and it seems also that father and son traveled to the Philippines in order to train for the attack.

00:07:14.020 So people were commenting about the speed with which they were firing and I thought that it was noteworthy

00:07:20.340 but didn't actually prove that they had that they had gone to a militant training camp.

00:07:25.380 It seems that they did and you might ask yourself well the Philippines is a catholic country.

00:07:29.700 Uh why would you go train on jihadi attacks in the Philippines? There is a small Muslim minority 1.00

00:07:36.500 in the Philippines and they run their own insurgency. It used to be known as the Abu Sayyaf insurgency

00:07:43.220 and then it became a branch of Islamic State and they've been uh running an insurgency against the

00:07:49.620 Philippine government uh for jihadi reasons since maybe the 1990s or something like that.

00:07:57.620 Uh mostly in the island of Mindanao and this is something that you should note there isn't a

00:08:03.380 single country in the world where there is a Muslim minority where there isn't either a jihadi insurgency

00:08:11.780 or a steady stream of terrorist attacks. Like this is sort of something that we're living with all over

00:08:19.380 the world now because as I keep on insisting Islam is a religion of government and legitimizes it for itself

00:08:26.260 the use of violence in order to become a religion of government. So actually there is one one exception

00:08:34.100 the one exception where there isn't a jihadi insurgency is Ethiopia and that's because they 1.00

00:08:38.740 all go to Somalia and fight there rather than so it's sort of a borderline case really but that's the

00:08:45.460 one country where there's a Muslim minority and there isn't either terrorism or a jihadi insurgency.

00:08:51.220 So these guys went to train with some jihadis and um apparently trained well enough to kill 15 people.

00:09:00.740 Uh so far there are 22 people still in hospital in Australia out of the 40 who were injured.

00:09:08.020 So they they you know they shot a 55 people 56 people in in in pretty quick succession.

00:09:17.300 Um we also now know that they that the sun uh was also training with the um was also receiving religious

00:09:34.180 religious instruction in Australia within a street dawa movement that was linked to what I believe is

00:09:41.540 called al-medina center and he was working with a preacher called uh Wissam Haddad by the name of it

00:09:51.060 he's Lebanese Syrian or Palestinian by the name he's uh he's he's one of those three and he was going there

00:09:58.500 as a 17 year old so he's been going there for some time now and ended up getting radicalized in this

00:10:06.980 in this way so he got radicalized in Australia because there are enough radical jihadi preachers

00:10:15.460 in Australia to do this. So the problem now is so deeply ingrained that okay you might have to travel

00:10:23.220 for training but you don't really have to travel for radicalization this can be made available to

00:10:28.500 you uh in a friendly Islamic center near you and this is how the son got radicalized this doesn't really

00:10:38.020 explain how the father got radicalized and it doesn't explain on a human level how a father would

00:10:47.300 sort of send his son to death uh or to near death based on this ideology but we see that happening

00:10:54.580 all the time we see that happening with the Palestinians with the Syrians who tend to view this as a

00:11:02.340 as a family affair and if you look at the other side of it from Hezbollah um on the Shia side of it that

00:11:09.300 is you see that this is an organization that's built by family members in-laws etc so this sort of

00:11:17.300 families getting radicalized together is a very frequent thing and we also see it here in Britain

00:11:23.060 with the Pakistani rape gangs which operate as extended family units and extended friendship units

00:11:28.900 of course um it doesn't take that much to sort of radicalize someone into action because um lots

00:11:35.780 of opinion polling done in Britain for example suggests that even the people who aren't participating

00:11:41.060 actively in in violent actions at least tacitly support what people are doing yeah you saw people

00:11:47.700 um talking about supporting terror attacks or ISIS or things like that and an alarming number of people do

00:11:54.020 think positively of their actions and so if you think positively of it it doesn't take that much to

00:12:01.220 them no it doesn't actually do it and indeed in this case the the preacher that helped radicalize uh

00:12:06.740 uh navid akram um this guy boasts of being friends with people who went to fight for islamic state in Syria

00:12:18.180 and probably played a role in radicalizing them and that's what that gentleman looks like

00:12:24.180 and so you see that this is a pretty obvious case of

00:12:31.140 Australia becoming an exporter of terrorism because it tolerates uh this kind of thing and

00:12:40.660 it seems that the tolerance isn't really going very far

00:12:45.380 now before i go on um i wanted to sort of i wanted us to hear from the australian national imams council

00:12:55.300 uh which is the highest islamic and religious authority in australia that's a humble claim to be

00:13:03.620 the highest religious authority in australia i would have thought that it would be a christian country

00:13:08.180 but i could be misguided about this um but it goes on uh about a long rant about how the muslim world

00:13:15.780 suffered at the hands of isis an islamic state doesn't represent islam or muslims and that it absolutely 0.97

00:13:23.300 condemns this kind of attack and it opposes isis et cetera et cetera problem is this is only half the

00:13:31.300 truth because from a religious perspective one of my previous jobs was to go through the propaganda

00:13:39.860 of islamic state and dissect that propaganda and try to find holes in it and try to see when they

00:13:48.340 constructed their religious arguments could it be said that these arguments were unislamic or were

00:13:54.980 faulty from an islamic perspective and the answer is no well it goes back to the the phrase the problem 0.97

00:14:02.900 with islamist fundamentalism is the fundamentals of islam right precisely precisely precisely and this 0.59

00:14:10.500 isn't intended to say that all muslims are terrorists or all muslims are bad or anything of

00:14:14.500 that sort absolutely not this is to say that islam follows a different moral framework and this

00:14:21.540 moral framework is quite permissive towards violence that is intended to further the cause of islam 1.00

00:14:29.300 and this violence is called jihad and those who die while waging jihad are guaranteed a place in paradise

00:14:37.220 according to islamic scriptures and according to every mainstream understanding of islam

00:14:42.500 so when going through islamic state propaganda one of the things that was genuinely notable

00:14:46.740 was that for every atrocity that dominated media headlines for an extended period the enslavement of

00:14:54.260 the yazidi women the burning alive of the jordanian pilot who had bombed islamic state facilities

00:15:03.220 the various attacks against other muslims and the beheadings of of other muslims

00:15:08.180 islamic state managed to find justification from two out of the four mainstream schools

00:15:16.180 of sunni islam sunni islam breaks into four main schools and the way that consensus works in islam

00:15:25.540 is that if two of the schools find something permissible then this is mainstream and for pretty much

00:15:30.980 everything that these guys did they did find justification based on analogy with what these

00:15:39.540 clerics had said these sort of titans of of of the of the muslim faith in the same way that we would

00:15:46.500 refer as christians to the church fathers and what the church fathers believed in order to understand

00:15:52.660 what we should believe as christians these guys looked at the fathers of islamic jurisprudence and found

00:15:59.220 justification within it and they were always able to find ways to excuse any behavior that they wanted

00:16:06.580 it doesn't mean that there aren't other interpretations of islam that find this inexcusable 0.92

00:16:12.260 but it does mean that this is plausible enough and that this is acceptable enough and they know it

00:16:19.460 and you can see from the image of naveed akram with one of these preachers with a very extensive

00:16:26.580 library full of very mainstream islamic books and scriptures so this claim that uh everybody condemns

00:16:35.940 isis and so on yeah but no because if they didn't condemn isis the americans would bomb them as they

00:16:43.220 did to qaddafi and to saddam and so they found an expedient to condemn them while in reality preaching

00:16:49.620 things that would be recognizable to isis and this has to be said and it has to be admitted and you

00:16:56.340 sort of see examples of that in in in um in this uh facebook page here please forgive me for using

00:17:03.940 facebook i'm not a boomer but here we are um this is a picture of the prime minister of australia visiting

00:17:11.700 the muslim guy ahmad who had intervened in the shooting and uh briefly disarmed oh i can't access

00:17:20.260 the comments and briefly disarmed uh one of the gunmen and you find around 20 30 percent supportive

00:17:29.460 of the man and saying that this is true islam and it doesn't allow the the killing of the innocents 0.56

00:17:34.100 but then there's the other 70 percent and the other 70 percent are saying uh may god never heal him

00:17:43.940 uh we wish he had died he intervened too soon he should have let them get on with their job he should

00:17:50.100 have let them continue data data things of that nature and you see this public acceptance of these

00:17:56.580 kinds of attacks targeting civilians in this case jewish civilians um

00:18:01.220 um you kind of expect it from palestinians given what they've gone through in gaza you expect a 1.00

00:18:07.300 little bit of anger but at no point do you see somebody saying well religiously uh killing a bunch

00:18:14.260 of random jewish civilians who are unarmed is not permissible like that's never actually argued not in

00:18:20.660 the public domain and the people who make this argument and say that there are religious grounds for

00:18:26.500 it they tend to be state-sponsored clerics and are very often mocked and disowned by other clerics

00:18:33.940 who say that you are the clerics of the state you are just reciting propaganda that the state wants you

00:18:38.260 to recite you're not actually serious about this and we know it and it's so obvious that this is

00:18:42.900 coming from a different moral paradigm because when europe does you know this sort of thing of

00:18:48.420 targeting civilians we bring it up for years and years afterwards exactly we still talk about dresden

00:18:53.540 and the united states and the blitz and the blitz and things like that the bombing of like places

00:18:58.100 like kosovo in the 90s yeah these things are still sort of introspected on culturally and there's not

00:19:05.220 this unanimous support and i don't think um except perhaps maybe during the actual conflicts within

00:19:11.220 the people that enduring it but maybe then you might have had majority support but following the

00:19:17.060 fact once people are far enough removed from it they realize okay maybe targeting civilians is not a

00:19:22.100 good thing yes a good practice i mean even and it's very new but the thing is the traditional warfare

00:19:29.140 up to world war one didn't involve any of this stuff and it was clear this is the army these are

00:19:35.140 the civilians uh honor dictates that you don't abuse the civilians too much you need to feed yourself

00:19:42.420 so you end up looting them but the purpose is to feed yourself rather than just loot them for the sake of it

00:19:47.300 so there there was always this sense uh this moral sense of of protecting civilians and it goes back

00:19:54.580 to say augustine and just war theory i mean had it had yeah i mean it goes back it goes back to that i

00:19:59.060 mean had any of these societies that we're talking about involved here they ever come up with anything

00:20:03.780 resembling like uh the geneva war convention no anything like that nothing of the sort uh more

00:20:10.500 frequently you see people defending islamic slavery as having been particularly merciful

00:20:16.100 and having been particularly including the castration including the castration including

00:20:20.580 the sexual slavery including the abduction of people from perfectly peaceful parts of europe yes

00:20:26.980 so so you find that no no one of these guys became a ship captain okay fine but that there's 10 000

00:20:35.060 others who didn't and who died miserable deaths in in in galleys or being worked to death or whatever and

00:20:41.940 you know a big part of the work of the church was raising money to pay ransom to save christians who 0.87

00:20:48.740 had been abducted by muslim slaving parties so this is this is a little bit of nonsense um but the focus

00:20:56.980 here has been really on like if you wanted to look at the reaction from australian media

00:21:02.500 the focus has really been on the safety of the jewish community and it's understandable after a

00:21:08.660 tragedy like that but i just wanted to ask you if you were to see this clip and then tell me if

00:21:16.100 maybe other people are also unsafe in australia let's sort of watch this

00:21:21.540 be loud and proud nobody's out

00:21:25.380 nobody's out

00:21:33.060 so this is a palestinian activist who sometimes larps as a secularist

00:21:38.740 um and he is going on about how melbourne is ours i'm not sure what he means by that could you take

00:21:46.740 a guess i don't think he means that it's secular does he no no and i don't think it means that it

00:21:52.260 belongs to the australians no or to the people of british stock who actually built australia because

00:21:57.140 that would be a pretty inane observation as well yes what's it what's he mean in his bio here

00:22:02.100 settler here refugee there desperate for justice in this colony and in palestine so what does that

00:22:09.540 mean well what this means essentially is globalize the intifada because just as in palestine there is

00:22:16.180 no justice in the colonies there is no justice and he is complaining of that injustice

00:22:22.180 but he would probably agree with the likes of ash sarkar say or random other

00:22:29.060 uh lefty islamists who are in britain uh who believe also that there is no justice in britain

00:22:36.740 and it doesn't it doesn't really help the optics of the of the cause when uh one of the things that

00:22:43.300 these kinds of people bring up um and i've not really looked into the argument very much so the

00:22:48.260 legitimacy of it can be argued whatever you want but they bring up like the settlers on the west bank

00:22:53.380 and the settlements uh that have been popped up here and there by israel and the injustice of it

00:22:57.940 where at the same time that they are cheering on their own people basically doing um popping up similar

00:23:04.740 ethnic enclaves around our countries that then go on to potentially victimize the local population as well 0.51

00:23:10.660 well it's in secular terms the story of israel is immigrants coming to a country and taking over

00:23:18.180 in in secular terms leaving all of the sort of moral arguments arguments from jewish nationalists

00:23:24.500 about this question but what literally physically happened was that a big bunch of immigrants

00:23:31.220 moved into another country and slowly took it over with armed force so he's just saying we should 0.99

00:23:38.340 do that too but it's all right when we do it yes exactly they're not operating from principles are

00:23:42.580 they in the abstract sense because that's more of a western thing to do in the first place they're

00:23:46.820 operating based on group interest which is obviously the the default norm for the entire world precisely

00:23:53.460 it doesn't make you look like you've got a particularly uh strong case strong case uh or particularly

00:23:59.220 principled movement yep and you hear australian media going on about how this was cascading hate that was

00:24:07.220 left unchecked and that there must be a strong plan against anti-semitism but when somebody tells you

00:24:14.340 that i'm coming to your country and your country is mine and i'm taking over and that it's all mine and 0.90

00:24:19.140 the world is mine also i don't think this threat is purely exclusively to jewish people and i think if you

00:24:28.420 were to take a moment to sort of look at modern terrorist attacks in australia well they seem to be

00:24:35.140 targeting all kinds of people and harran manis farhead khalil mohammed yakub oh my god he's back 0.84

00:24:43.060 kaya uh attacker by hassan khalif i mean i'm noticing a pattern yeah yeah it's the same as the one in

00:24:50.660 britain where from 2005 which was the last um sort of irish related terror attack onwards 95 plus

00:25:01.300 yeah of the terror fatalities have been islamic yes yes it's pretty much the same thing and here we 0.91

00:25:08.100 see australian media talking to the defense minister and trying to sort of see what he's going to do

00:25:14.660 about this more on that investigation in just a moment but joining us live now is the deputy prime

00:25:19.940 minister and the defense minister richard miles richard thank you so much for your time this

00:25:24.660 morning under the most trying of circumstances if a government's primary job its first job is to

00:25:31.540 protect its citizens have you failed the jewish community i want to slightly object to the framing

00:25:43.220 what about the australian is a problem for pretty much all australians and for everybody in the west

00:25:48.180 um but that doesn't seem to sort of really factor in here and you sort of see that the uh samson if we

00:25:58.180 could move to the to the to the next segment you could sort of see that these guys are incapable of

00:26:04.260 taking the problem seriously i mean it's the same thing that happened over here where southport happens

00:26:09.860 people go and protest out in the street and they get hoovered up at the side of the road and arrested

00:26:14.580 for going out and voicing their displeasure that this was allowed to happen they all predicted that

00:26:19.700 um um what's his name ruda cabana would have been known to prevent prior it turned out that he was

00:26:26.420 and the government said no you're not allowed to go and do that but then the synagogue attack happens

00:26:32.900 a few months ago and the first thing that happens is keir starmer instead of coming out and saying

00:26:38.020 your concerns don't matter says we need to do everything that we can to protect this community by

00:26:43.460 coming up with new anti-semitism laws and cracking down on hate speech yada yada yada it's not for us

00:26:49.620 the the the laws and protections aren't for us they are for protected client groups whether that be um

00:26:56.500 jewish groups or whether that be muslim groups everything is then turned around to persecute 1.00

00:27:02.340 the white natives of these countries whether it be australia whether it be england whether it be in 0.51

00:27:06.980 america it's it's horrifying it's funny that you say this let's sort of take a moment to listen to this

00:27:12.740 is the move to strengthen gun reform a distraction from a bigger issue which is radical islam 0.85

00:27:21.860 no i don't accept that at all um i mean the the the reality here is we we need to do

00:27:27.780 uh we need to act in every way that that's appropriate here uh you know we've been talking

00:27:33.540 about anti-semitism we need to stamp that out we do need to make sure that we we understand what's

00:27:38.340 happened here in the context of intelligence and policing but gun i've never heard a gay or australian

00:27:44.740 accent in my life i didn't think australians could sound that fey yeah yeah and and you sort of see that

00:27:52.260 there is an absolute refusal to take the problem seriously um because they simply can't bring it into

00:27:59.860 themselves but bring themselves to do it what they did do was that in one council in northcote in

00:28:07.540 melbourne they got rid of a mural saying globalize the antifada so that's kind of nice that's kind

00:28:13.460 of very well though by the looks of it you know they're working on it but it then turns out that just

00:28:21.700 today a group of seven people in two cars were arrested by armed police on their way to bondi beach

00:28:32.820 so refusing to address the threat from islamism and refusing to address what from islam uh refusing 0.82

00:28:39.620 to address the problem of radicalization in the muslim community isn't really going very well

00:28:44.980 because here we read uh that the police received information that a violent act was possibly being

00:28:51.380 planned before heavily armed officers uh detained seven men in two vehicles as they were heading to

00:29:01.860 bondi beach presumably on their way to commit some kind of atrocity we don't know the full details yet

00:29:09.220 but that's kind of what happens when you don't call the threat what it is if the australian deputy

00:29:15.620 prime minister and defense minister isn't willing to say that radical islam is a problem

00:29:20.980 partly because islam in general is a problem and partly because immigration in general is a problem

00:29:26.100 you're not going to get very far it's not even been a week yeah yeah so anyway here we are

00:29:36.180 all right and on that we'll go through a couple of rumble rants uh we've got three the chat keeps

00:29:41.060 showing that it might have closed or not so i don't know what's going on with that samson i hope

00:29:44.420 everything's all right uh somehow somehow some tinsel has appeared on my screen there we go the

00:29:51.060 the festive christmas spirit is just getting everywhere sigil stone i think we need to re-engineer

00:29:56.260 the norm mcdonald quote if isis detonated a nuclear device and killed 50 million in certain

00:30:00.820 nationality how would israel be most affected i mean look at finkelstein right the day before the

00:30:07.460 bondi attack london's the safest city in the world i feel so safe in london bondi attack happens oh i

00:30:14.100 no longer feel safe in london what's happening to my country as soon as it's about him and his problems 0.90

00:30:20.580 it's a problem if it's about us who gives a shit objectively it's not the safest city even in 0.95

00:30:26.900 england not even in southern england in fact um and also again this was an attack in australia 0.93

00:30:33.620 why do you suddenly feel if all of these things aren't connected if it isn't a crisscrossing

00:30:39.300 interconnected network of both your group and those groups of radical muslims or whatever like why should 0.99

00:30:47.300 you care about or at least why should you suddenly feel unsafe because of what's happening on the

00:30:51.300 other side of the world unless it's all connected but when we say such things when we say white 0.92

00:30:55.860 birth rates going down when we say there's massive migration going into america the european countries

00:31:01.300 into australia new zealand all of these historically white countries we're not allowed to say anything

00:31:08.180 we're not allowed to notice anything like that the double standard is appalling and it's more and more

00:31:13.620 noticeable every day because they just can't help themselves but make it obvious that's a random

00:31:18.020 name all of this just confirms for me that if our side were to ever get power and implement remigration

00:31:22.740 a lot of these enrichers would turn violent dark days ahead that's my concern as well as no matter how

00:31:28.980 how peaceful we try and make it people will try and attack us over it or rise up

00:31:37.300 based ape i've been a good boy this year and successfully managed to avoid being featured on

00:31:42.100 monkey news you did manage well done um yeah better luck next year i suppose yeah

00:31:50.260 josh's got we're now reading what's that's random names last comment thank you for that i enjoyed that

00:31:55.700 comment yeah yeah we all we all appreciate it though uh those watching on rumble you can find it and you

00:32:01.300 can enjoy it yourselves so they say we have no culture they say that we have no history they say that

00:32:08.260 we're descended from people who looked and behaved nothing like us until new dna evidence is re-examined

00:32:14.500 again and it turns out that the english people and the british who are white were also descended from

00:32:20.020 white people i assume you saw this as well everybody was spreading it around it wasn't uh bangle lady

00:32:25.780 was it it was one of the other ones it i forgot her name now but she was found on a beach somewhere

00:32:30.660 wasn't she she had lady was it she had that's it and uh they were saying that she was a cypriot

00:32:35.780 which wasn't true she was just a british and very bad dna analysis and uh yeah what what they projected 0.78

00:32:42.340 that she was very brown and uh actually no she was white yeah the new projections are of hers white

00:32:48.020 blonde hair blue eyes funny how all the mistakes go in the same direction always what a shock what a shock

00:32:54.100 if if it was sort of dispersed sometimes to this side sometimes to that side yeah fair enough we all make 0.99

00:32:59.620 mistakes we're all idiots i'm looking forward to the uh the time when they're examining dna sort of 0.95

00:33:04.900 ancient dna in africa and they're just like we found a group of white people here so actually you know 0.99

00:33:09.060 what wasn't colonial well we know we know after the recent discovery that the first fire was almost

00:33:14.580 four hundred thousand years ago the arneander falls were the best in britain it's the it's the out of

00:33:20.260 england theory now england yes we are obviously seat of of human we're the cradle of humanity

00:33:26.980 sorry faras i interrupted you though the iraqis are going to get very angry about that but please

00:33:30.500 move on i don't care about the feelings either way so we're told all of these lies we're told we don't

00:33:36.340 have culture but all you need to do is actually go to england not the cities which are mainly being

00:33:41.860 taken over or turned into a big multicultural brown slop go to the actual countryside which are english 0.97

00:33:48.260 hold holdouts they're strongholds for the most part and you'll see british and english culture in

00:33:55.140 action and that's a very high trust uh very uh you could say transactional but there's a very communal

00:34:02.420 culture that manifests itself in really interesting and quaint sweet ways we've spoken about these

00:34:09.060 before but these are the famous honesty boxes and you can see how much people really love them the

00:34:15.140 even the guardian a few years ago did this article just saying eggs marrows and chutney england's honesty

00:34:20.500 boxes in pictures and you can get a lovely selection of the kind of scenes that you'll find around the

00:34:25.700 country here's people selling from their farms the kind of veg that they'll be growing it won't even

00:34:30.100 be farms a lot of people just have vegetable patches in their garden with this around me at all times and

00:34:35.780 in fact at the end of our driveway growing up we would have a box we would sometimes have you know

00:34:41.380 books where people could borrow them and return them uh we would have apples we wouldn't sell them we'd

00:34:45.940 just say yeah take them if you want and the funny thing is um people were so honest that when it got

00:34:50.580 to the last apple no one would take it because they didn't want to be the person to brought to

00:34:54.660 deprive someone else of an apple exactly even though they were free you think maybe somebody else will

00:34:58.820 need that more than me uh and and here's here's a perfect image it's just out in a field somewhere

00:35:04.740 there's a carton of eggs and some other things and you say put your money in this little jar and take

00:35:10.180 what you need there you go and you can see all of the assumptions that this is built on top of it's

00:35:16.340 built on the idea that people will be honest enough to actually pay for something without being watched

00:35:23.220 it's completely detached from the managerial bureaucratic state because it does not require the

00:35:29.460 panopticon it doesn't require the ai eyes on you that we have all the time now it's trusting that you

00:35:38.100 as an individual will be honour and honourable enough in yourself to stick to the rules it's

00:35:44.260 very very high trust white british people don't really need that much government supervision to

00:35:49.620 have a functioning society like and this is proof of it we can be left to our own devices to run

00:35:55.140 pretty much everything and it works perfectly well in fact it works much better than many other parts

00:36:00.900 of the world why we can show up in many other parts of the world and all of a sudden where there was

00:36:05.380 just desert or nothing there will suddenly be a civilization sprout the aboriginals living in 1.00

00:36:10.180 the stone age and then you look at sydney harbour and it's you know in 200 years you've created a

00:36:15.220 utopia yeah and it's all off of the mentality that can support something like this and you can see the

00:36:21.460 lovely ways that people do it and that communal aspect that i was talking about like these people

00:36:26.740 here setting up honesty but uh honesty boxes to help out a generous community boosting fundraising

00:36:33.380 efforts and offering something back for community support this is one laura and tom winter from

00:36:37.940 langley in maidston kent another rural part of the country raising money so they can finance a suitable

00:36:44.180 and safe home with their son evan who has duchenne duchin muscular dystrophy so that's really nice for

00:36:51.300 them to be able to give to the community and the community's helping them there's this interconnected

00:36:56.180 web of trust and obligations and care for one another that's going on here and it can only exist

00:37:03.220 with certain people in certain parts of the world which is why it forms this kind of cultural fascination

00:37:09.300 for other places do you know if if you go out into rural england or wales or scotland to be fair the

00:37:14.580 welsh are very good for this yeah experience i've not spent as much time in scotland as i'd like but

00:37:19.460 um you go to any rural area people say hello to each other on the street sometimes they'll even stop and

00:37:24.180 ask you how your day's going um complete you know you could be a complete stranger you're just in the

00:37:28.980 small area you know where i grew up obviously people knew me and so they would say hello and

00:37:33.460 ask so stay clear of him no everyone was very nice um but the general idea is that you've got this nice

00:37:41.380 community spirit and people help each other out and you know we had an example of we went on holiday

00:37:48.340 and for whatever reason in the the panic of making the flights and getting the bags out we didn't

00:37:53.300 shut our front door um and so it was left wide open and so our next door neighbors went in wrote

00:37:59.860 a note saying oh we've um used our key because we left a key with them so they can keep an eye on our

00:38:04.900 house um we've um shut your door for you um we had a check nothing was taken or anything um hope you

00:38:12.820 have a nice holiday and then we came back and was like oh that's a bit unfortunate but nothing was

00:38:17.460 missing nothing happened someone went in because we trusted them enough to leave them a key to our

00:38:22.740 house and locked up and all was fine there was order there you go and that's that's a lovely little

00:38:30.740 anecdote and it's that kind of culture which is rapidly vanishing from the world that inspires this

00:38:37.300 kind of curiosity like here's an npr article asking how does scottish honesty boxes work and who uses them

00:38:43.460 other parts of the world even the ones that are descended from the same people in the same culture

00:38:49.140 look at this and go like how does this work we don't have that where we are i mean i still get

00:38:53.700 honesty boxes in my local area which is which is nice as well this is npr rights there's 14 14 of

00:39:03.060 the population might have a problem with this honest approach fair play fair play but that's

00:39:08.820 that's culturally america originally descends from the english and other european settlers but even

00:39:16.260 they as a result of modernity are far enough removed from it that now you get these articles

00:39:21.620 where you're kind of educating americans of like oh here's how people live in the countries that you

00:39:27.140 come from here's the kind of educating city americans yes yes that's true i think you're but but still

00:39:32.580 it's it's it's it's whom this experience would be genuine it shows it shows how unique it is that

00:39:37.780 you can have places across the world asking how it works sure it does go on in the countryside in the

00:39:43.060 u.s though i'm sure it i'm sure it does but it's it comes from here yes it comes from here and even

00:39:50.100 though right now you've got getting the development of the cashless society um people have pointed out you

00:39:56.580 know like they should be dying because people are having to use card more and more often people aren't

00:40:01.460 carrying cash but they're actually adapting they're adapting to the times by now a lot of people have

00:40:07.060 the little card readers if you're buying something well you can tap your card reader against it and

00:40:12.260 again it doesn't actually need anybody observing you or watching you a card reader can i don't know

00:40:18.100 how expensive they are but that's another little bit of risk to leave there 100 pounds there you go

00:40:23.220 at the very least 50 to 100 quid on the hopes that people don't steal it and a ring doorbell by the

00:40:28.820 looks of it yeah but there's still enough trust that people are gonna be honest with it that it

00:40:33.860 still works in a lot of places in the world and a lot of places in the country but and again this is

00:40:39.700 you are right this isn't just just england it also happens in places with very similar northern european

00:40:47.140 culture like the netherlands but of course this is all not counting that there are new populations

00:40:56.980 coming into these countries that don't have that same level of high trust that don't have that

00:41:03.220 honesty built into them the kind of people that show up and if they something like see something

00:41:09.220 lying around at the side of the road that says hey please leave your money here they just think

00:41:13.780 what a sucker and they take him i think it was a story of a i think it was robert mugabe

00:41:20.980 coming to england and encountering not an honesty box but something very similar where you pardon 0.99

00:41:27.780 lee kuan yu uh um singaporean president yeah was this lee kuan yu maybe you saw the people putting in

00:41:34.900 the money for newspapers and taking exact change without anybody sort of just dipping his hand and

00:41:42.900 grabbing a bunch of coins and stuffing his pockets and moving on and what he saw basically was

00:41:50.100 that way of purchasing newspapers which was actually quite common in urban america as well very common

00:41:55.540 all over america urban america you just leave your change there and um nobody takes it nobody steals it

00:42:03.220 and he was so impressed by it that he wanted to be able to replicate it in singapore

00:42:09.380 except that singapore is also a police state and it does enforce this kind of honesty you can leave your

00:42:16.660 laptop in a cafe in singapore but like in dubai relies on the technocratic panopticon to enforce

00:42:23.140 all of that whereas the english and other northwest europeans have just been able to rely on

00:42:28.020 and in the honesty of others in fairness in places like dubai or qatar where that panopticon exists

00:42:37.700 the assumption that there is a panopticon has changed people living there i would argue temporarily

00:42:45.780 and i'll explain why um to the extent that they do behave themselves very properly there i say temporarily

00:42:53.620 because you see this phenomenon replicated throughout the middle east where people are flying to dubai from

00:43:03.060 the middle east and they're behaving themselves perfectly as they arrive and then on the flight

00:43:08.020 back it's absolute chaos once the plane hits the tarmac and things return to a very bad norm it's like

00:43:17.380 raising children really isn't it in the sense that if you raise them with only engendering proper

00:43:24.100 behavior through punishment then as soon as you're absent they're going to misbehave whereas if you

00:43:29.060 engender it by teaching them the moral reasons why it's good to be a good person and actually imbibe a

00:43:36.980 sense of morality in them then they'll police their own behavior at least certainly better than they would

00:43:42.020 otherwise and to expand on your point i i think what you're saying is that this mode of behavior

00:43:48.180 for them relies on the panopticon existing and if it collapsed they would go back to behaving in the same way

00:43:55.300 that they always did whereas with the english if our panopticon collapsed and we just go back to behaving how

00:44:02.580 it's normal for us well this is how we would behave it'd probably be better if it collapsed to be honest

00:44:07.940 yeah and that's and that's the thing but of course this doesn't work for lots of places and lots of

00:44:13.620 populations and so you introduce those populations and you get situations like this i don't want to

00:44:22.260 hear these people um and this is a farm stand in the netherland which has been left unattended because

00:44:29.540 again it's the netherlands they are expecting they can leave things unattended and won't get robbed

00:44:35.780 because they can trust the people around them well a couple of people who definitely do not do not

00:44:41.300 look like they're from sound or sound like they're from the netherlands they also don't look like they 0.99

00:44:45.860 need the food at all do they look at the size of him no fat bastard yeah greedy git uh they they just 0.96

00:44:51.700 walk in and they help themselves and to like everything as well by the looks of it just more than 0.98

00:44:56.900 they could possibly even consume and you've got to remember for these people running these farm stands

00:45:01.860 that's a hefty chunk of change they've just stolen from them a farm stand and farms in general run on

00:45:09.380 super tight margins you can only have this happen to you once or twice before you have to fold or at

00:45:15.380 least shut down this kind of operation my inner country boy is coming out and it makes me want to

00:45:19.940 go sort of full wicker man on these people and and i think many sympathize many simple in a place like

00:45:28.100 lebanon for example uh my village is highly segregated between the christians who live on one side and two

00:45:37.220 druz families who also have segregated neighborhoods and the way that it actually works is that within

00:45:44.580 the community there is to some extent a high level of trust i'd argue subject to numbers but but that's

00:45:50.900 a different conversation for later and you do get things like people locking your front door for you

00:45:56.420 or making sure that nothing's taken or or anything of that of that sort but within the community and

00:46:03.540 it's understood that outside of the community you know if you race properly you don't do that but

00:46:10.100 it's understood that stranger danger is very very very real and the assumption is that so long as it's

00:46:16.900 small and local within your fam neighbors who are also your family you're fine but beyond that trust

00:46:24.420 breaks down and on big financial matters it tends to be the trust actually breaks down quickly even in

00:46:31.540 a society like that that's supposed to be tightly knit and very and and very close to each other

00:46:37.380 so this issue of trust is is very real and it's not accidental and it does come from a very long

00:46:47.860 period of society developing the conscience of its members and teaching them to be

00:46:55.140 to have a very strong feeling of guilt for anything wrong that they do

00:46:59.540 and we tend to find in studies that the more diverse populations become even within group trust breaks

00:47:06.580 down as well as things begin to divide and segregate themselves as people are and it becomes more tribal

00:47:12.420 people that kind of like mistrust then ends up permeating within your own communities as well

00:47:18.980 so this kind of stuff doesn't just have this negative financial effect on these farmers this

00:47:24.260 will also be a massive detriment to the kind of high trust community these people who set this

00:47:30.500 up already lived in they're still stealing yeah they're still going on it's been going on still

00:47:35.140 going on it's been going on for three minutes they're literally clearing the whole thing out 0.95

00:47:39.300 so this will be presumably a huge loss for this farm would say so that's ridiculous and these

00:47:45.940 people feel no shame whatsoever still going on there's still stuff left on the shelves

00:47:53.060 if it's there let's take it and that's how a lot of these people feel maybe they wouldn't feel

00:47:58.260 that way within their own communities but this isn't their community these aren't their people

00:48:02.740 so they just think well it doesn't affect me if anything i benefit from this because i can get

00:48:07.540 what like a week or a month's worth of food for free if i just take all of this they're not like us

00:48:12.980 at all no they shouldn't be in our country and this and this happens all over now where these people

00:48:18.580 have started to pop up like this you get family shut down a 10 years old 10 year olds honesty box

00:48:25.140 after egg theft and that's in that's in conway they don't actually name who did it but i don't know if

00:48:30.500 they do and not that's not to say that like natives don't do this kind of thing as well but just at

00:48:35.060 much much less frequency the fact that any scale this tradition wouldn't have evolved yeah yeah the

00:48:41.300 fact that this can exist in the first place means that we do this at such alarmingly small rates as

00:48:46.980 to be completely negligible and then all of a sudden these people start moving into these countries and

00:48:51.300 then boom this happens interesting we had this example in a i don't know what the music was for

00:49:00.740 i think this one was in uh in ireland possibly and you can see this one just taking 200 it was

00:49:08.580 reported on by the daily mail taking 270 eggs without paying for them this one does have a happy ending

00:49:18.740 because they were tracked down and forced to give them back i mean personally i would have had them

00:49:23.940 dragged through the streets and shamed and who knows what else but i won't go on with that particular

00:49:29.780 thought i've got a few ideas yeah gaddafi no um you're beating my mind and it's starting to happen

00:49:37.540 even in the channel islands right the channel islands tiny little islands with populations of

00:49:44.180 a few thousand each all of a sudden you're finding that jersey farmers forcing uh being forced to close 0.99

00:49:51.300 their honesty box after a growing number of thefts all of a sudden not only does it happen the once

00:49:56.660 it becomes a repeat occurrence and destroys that trust that has built up over generation after

00:50:03.220 generation after generation and i thought you know maybe things are just changing in jersey maybe the

00:50:09.940 kids in jersey are just all of a sudden behaving badly for no reason until you look into and find

00:50:15.700 articles like this one because of course i don't know if we've got really standardized statistical

00:50:21.860 breakdowns of migration into jersey just yet but you do have articles like this from the observer the

00:50:28.980 never-ending fear that haunts jerseys troubled migrant workers and this is when i knew that jersey 0.56

00:50:36.820 was over look at how nice it is that place does not need any migrant workers to function right here's some 1.00

00:50:44.420 statistics that they name in this right last year so that'd be 2024 there were 2432 seasonal worker

00:50:52.900 permits issued to people coming to jersey a number that has more than doubled since 2021

00:50:59.780 the largest groups are from india the philippines and kenya there should not be anyone from india the

00:51:08.260 philippines or kenya on the channel islands at all why are we giving out seasonal worker permits to a

00:51:15.780 bunch of third worlders let alone two and a half thousand of them so that they can show up and ruin the 1.00

00:51:23.300 beautiful culture and beautiful landscape of jersey frankly under under my government there would be some

00:51:31.140 kind of program for out of work teenagers on the mainland in england in scotland and in wales to go

00:51:38.740 and fill those positions you would get maybe your accommodation paper or maybe a local family would be

00:51:44.340 happy to take you in for the for the summer and you would go and work those jobs over the summer it'd be

00:51:50.100 an opportunity i know i would have taken up something like that when i was a teenager why aren't we

00:51:54.980 offering these opportunities to our own people jerseys associated with jersey royal potatoes and jersey

00:52:00.660 milk these are things that teenagers can do they can pull potatoes and they can milk a cow i was

00:52:06.100 milking cows when i was a kid so it's not that hard they can figure it out as a teenager i'm offered the

00:52:10.740 opportunity over the summer oh you you have to work but your accommodation will learn some money and

00:52:16.420 you get a summer away in a nice part of the world and there'll be lots of other people like you that's

00:52:21.140 a pretty easy thing your character yeah it teaches you responsibility and it teaches you love of nature and

00:52:26.900 it helps you make a few quid for the rest of the year and like the reason we have a summer holiday

00:52:32.420 isn't because it's particularly hot in northern europe during summer the reason is literally to work

00:52:36.980 around farm calendars so that young people could work the farms when they're needed that makes the

00:52:43.700 most sense so you can literally adjust the school year to allow for things of that nature

00:52:50.500 um and it's a wide benefit to everybody but already like we in 2000 these permits were introduced

00:52:59.460 as a way to help jersey bring in desperately needed labor again why don't you just do my idea without 0.97

00:53:05.380 having to award settled status in return workers on other visa arrangements such as bankers or doctors

00:53:12.260 receive residency and can buy property after 10 years because of course jersey operates under slightly

00:53:16.900 different laws than here they have their own visa system but still without having to be awarded

00:53:23.060 settled status you still have these people all of a sudden popping up in your community and apparently

00:53:28.420 these permits are doubling in number over the course of a few years why is this being allowed to happen

00:53:34.900 and of course the the observers takeaway from this is that these people are basically being used like

00:53:43.060 modern slaves and they go on to give this awful awful sob story about a kenyan woman but it says here 0.63

00:53:50.980 until recently migrants were not allowed to take on any other work in jersey without the written 0.88

00:53:56.180 permission of their employers which was re frequently refused yeah why should you be taking that work when

00:54:01.780 you've already got employment unless of course you're just trying to take the work from the people around

00:54:06.740 you and subsequently depress their wages as well that rule led critics to compare the system to a

00:54:12.500 form of servitude which would violate both the uk modern slavery act which does not apply in jersey

00:54:19.380 and eu human rights law which does so already you've got these wanker human rights lawyers showing up and

00:54:26.500 going where's still nice in the world where is still a place in the world that can act as an oasis away 0.91

00:54:33.700 from the shithole that we've turned the rest of europe into i know jersey let's ruin that too 0.88

00:54:39.940 quote as soon as you fall out with your employer if they decide you're a bad potato in the sack 0.98

00:54:46.820 they can just go to immigration and say i'm done with this person based based good good you shouldn't

00:54:53.940 be there in the first place why do you just show up for a summer to work on a potato patch and then

00:55:00.100 all of a sudden what you get the automatic right to spend the rest of your lives there scrounging off of

00:55:04.580 benefits piss off that was explained by joshua machiri of the kenyan jersey committee 0.67

00:55:13.140 that exists a body that represents the 700 kenyan nationals living and working on the island why are

00:55:20.660 the 700 kenyans on jersey jersey has a tiny population do you understand what putting 700 kenyans will do 0.77

00:55:28.100 to that population how much that would change it how noticeable that would be and how even in

00:55:33.700 relatively small numbers like 700 they immediately form their own committee around their ethnic interests 0.94

00:55:40.180 so they can beg for their right to ruin your country forever through their presence that's disgusting

00:55:48.100 this whole circumstance is awful and of course as soon as that happens boom boom high trust society

00:55:59.620 starts falling apart and i'm sorry these honesty boxes matter far more to me than the well-being

00:56:06.500 of any of these migrants right and you know what else it reminds me of because there are other

00:56:11.540 phenomenons as well does everybody remember a few years ago this right because this manifests itself

00:56:19.700 canadian food banks in other ways as well yeah indians six figure indians this guy mehel prajapati

00:56:30.900 shows up in canada and decides that oh i i earn a good wage i can afford to eat but if i show up at food

00:56:38.740 banks and say that i'm a student they'll give me food for free anyway so i'll just scam the people

00:56:44.980 who need the food banks out of getting their food and i'll get it for free and even better i'll post

00:56:51.940 on social media explaining how this is how i save hundreds of bucks every month in food and grocery

00:56:57.620 all i'm gonna i'm gonna stop that right there like these people have no shame when they come here

00:57:04.820 they have no shame they have no honor they have no internal sense that am i doing something wrong

00:57:12.020 what they need because the cultures that they come from in force like this what they need is 0.97

00:57:16.340 they need the authority hitting them with a big stick saying you can't do that but when they get here

00:57:22.420 because the food banks are expected to be used honorably because the honesty boxes are expected to be

00:57:28.420 used honor honorably there is no man with a big stick saying no you can't do that so they just do

00:57:36.020 what they can take it whatever they can get away with let me briefly correct you it's not that he

00:57:40.820 doesn't have honor it's that his sense of honor is teaching his compatriots how to also benefit from

00:57:50.020 the system in dishonest ways in the way that he does so he was sharing this on social media probably

00:57:56.500 because everybody who knows him and everybody who follows him on social media is of his group so he

00:58:01.780 was preaching to them something which he thought was good which makes it much much worse yeah and

00:58:09.620 this is an entire genre of me of youtube video and you are right i was looking at it in a far too

00:58:15.780 european way because europeans have this thing where we abstract out and universalize our principles so

00:58:22.180 honor to me is something that i have to apply that's how we do all the larger society isn't it

00:58:27.460 we we sort of universalize them outside of our insular community to our nation which is how exactly

00:58:34.580 we can go to other villages and still slot in nicely yes whereas so i apply i see honor and trust and

00:58:41.940 honesty is something that i have to apply to other groups as well whereas you're right these people see

00:58:48.340 it as only something that exists within their own group and so they're more than happy to go and

00:58:53.940 steal food from food banks even though they've got money to buy the food themselves potentially

00:58:58.580 depriving people of the food that they actually need certainly disadvantaging the food banks

00:59:03.140 themselves because they're just being having fraud committed in them every single day and then they

00:59:07.460 go you know what this is what my people need to hear so our systems our countries our culture

00:59:15.300 was just not set up for these people it was not intended with this level of individual corruption

00:59:23.940 in mind that these people could feel more than comfortable doing this to your local uh local

00:59:34.580 local farm stand doing this to your local honesty box coming in for work over the summer and deciding that

00:59:43.700 we need to actually be here permanently because we we just have the right i guess and then coming

00:59:50.020 and stealing all of the food from food banks which is set up for the needy it's not meant for these

00:59:55.540 people and the more of these people come in the worse it will get and the more it will break down high

01:00:00.660 trust society and and the high trust within these within your own group as well so there's only one

01:00:08.420 solution for it and you all know what it is gaddafi no um anyway i'll go through some of the rumble

01:00:16.740 rants and then josh can cheer us up with some happy news um i'll go through the more expensive ones

01:00:22.900 ten dollars cute queen once a week i run to the farm shop that has an honesty box for eggs raw milk 0.99

01:00:28.340 based tallow soap yogurt pasture raised chicken grass-fed beef and bread no cameras guess what we're all white

01:00:35.620 i could i could have guessed sigil stone it's like that farm stand got hit by a swarm of locusts

01:00:41.380 something to learn here sigil stone did you see yesterday or so is trump saying the border is

01:00:45.700 secure jobs are great the economy is roaring blah blah blah the only thing missing missing was a big

01:00:50.420 mission accomplished banner yeah worked so great the first time um and yeah those are the ones i'll read

01:00:56.820 through and josh can go on to his segment okay may i have my podcasting utensils what are you going to

01:01:02.980 steal it from me you're going to fight me for it i'm high trust harry this is this is true you can

01:01:08.980 tell thank you by the fact he goes a little bit ginger in the summer have you ever heard such projection

01:01:16.020 everyone ladies and gentlemen at home i go blonder in the summer ginger ginger in the closet right there 0.90

01:01:23.700 what'd you call me was that hard r yeah i dropped a hard r ginger on you oh my god 1.00

01:01:29.540 bigotry so i thought it's about time as this is my last podcast segment before christmas to do the

01:01:39.700 christmas tradition at this point of doing a weird news roundup which is one of my favorite things to

01:01:45.140 do after monkey news which uh is coming um and i've basically gone month by month in chronological order

01:01:54.340 and i've discovered that some months are weirder than others um which is not some sort of weird

01:01:59.540 animal farm paraphrasing and here we have one from january um which i don't know why i found

01:02:05.380 it as amusing as i did but the bbc wrote an article saying why does a plate of bananas appear on our

01:02:10.260 street and then there's just a plate of peeled bananas generous monkeys are you sure this isn't

01:02:15.220 monkey news this is to make sure there aren't monkeys in the neighborhood maybe

01:02:18.580 uh if the bananas are gone it's like a sign we've been being invaded so it says um down below

01:02:28.260 oh i don't know why that's not working the box just isn't working is it really i blame samson

01:02:34.020 sorry i didn't mean to throw at you um i just saw samson's why did you break eyes pop up behind

01:02:39.700 so it says um that is exactly what's happening in a small town in nottinghamshire and no one knows the

01:02:45.380 reason behind the strange tradition the mystery plate appears on the second day of every month

01:02:49.620 on the corner of abbey road um which not that one yeah not the beatles one um and residents say it's

01:02:55.940 been a constant in their lives for more than a year my guess is they're putting it out for hedgehogs

01:03:00.980 but uh that'd be cute i hope that's what i love a good why would you feed them just on the second of 0.99

01:03:05.220 every month and why don't i overfeed them hedgehogs are actually very small they could get fat very

01:03:11.060 easily and that's a hefty number of bananas think of the damage you could do to a car tire if you

01:03:15.620 fatten up those hedgehogs too much um would you be able to um i've got quite a few links could you

01:03:21.460 pass me the other one if it's not or is that not working if one's not working the other one won't

01:03:25.620 be of course so here's a cautionary tale for you this is from march there wasn't try clicking and then

01:03:33.860 no no so um when a child tells you there might be a monster under their bed maybe you should listen

01:03:39.860 to them so apparently um kansas child said monster was under their bed and the babysitter found a man

01:03:46.420 hiding under the bed for some strange reason which i think would traumatize me as a child and

01:03:52.660 apparently the man once lived as a resident um at the property and had been ordered to stay away from

01:03:58.180 the property under an order of protection from abuse um and apparently he was there anyway i don't

01:04:03.700 know probably a mental health thing but jesus christ i know that's that's terrifying

01:04:09.300 that's genuinely terrifying the last thing you want to actually find is someone hiding under your

01:04:14.180 own child's bed no it's so creepy isn't it that would turn me a child's bed as well yeah and speaking

01:04:20.900 of uh bed actually um people have been talking about how dangerous xl bullies are but ones that one 0.79

01:04:27.380 dimension that people have not considered is uh their ability to shoot you and uh shot by it so

01:04:35.300 gerald kirkwood reported to the police in memphis that he and a woman were lying in bed with a

01:04:40.100 firearm for some reason oh got jealous when his dog jumped up and inadvertently caused the weapon

01:04:44.820 to discharge apparently the one-year-old pitbull oreo had gotten his paw stuck in the trigger guard

01:04:49.860 of his owner's gun oreo immediately squeezed the trigger and shot his owner apparently the bullet

01:04:54.660 grazed them the man atop his left thigh so yes did the did the pitbull then throw a gang sign 1.00

01:04:59.860 it threw a gang sign and then devoured a small baby see in my mind i i completely ignore the

01:05:07.460 description that you gave the dog just came in on its hind legs holding the gun sideways

01:05:16.500 yes uh 13 of pitbulls 52 of dog bites um and then we get to april and uh this is again from the

01:05:26.580 united states and this is from bill track um and this is i believe from oklahoma which amends an

01:05:34.740 existing law on cockfighting by adding a specific exemption that allows cockfighting between live

01:05:40.340 fowl and a robot so you're gonna have robot cockfighting in um oklahoma now provided that the robot doesn't

01:05:48.260 cause any harm to the bird so it's rigged it's a rigged it's a rigged game cockfight so you can how

01:05:57.220 am i supposed to enjoy cock versus robot if i know it's rigged i know wwe stunt i don't understand

01:06:06.420 apparently some vince mcmahon's book in this there's going to be some sort of unlisted underground robot

01:06:11.940 cockfighting going on somewhere i bet that's hilarious um so here's a wholesome story to sort

01:06:19.620 of cleanse your palate this is again from april um dog found um using the owner's t-shirt after

01:06:25.540 surviving for 529 days in australian wilderness what a base dog and there's the dog i don't know

01:06:32.260 how on earth this this this adaption or a sausage dog as we call them uh it survived in the australian

01:06:38.980 bush i guess it managed to fight off the kangaroos and the emus we need to study this dog that's

01:06:45.780 crazy it is crazy so apparently um the wildlife rescue had been working around the clock to find

01:06:51.220 the dog um off the coast of australia last seen by our owners on a camping trip it's got a pink collar

01:06:57.060 so it's a girl dog as well apparently they left the dog valerie in a playpen at a campsite while the

01:07:03.940 couple went fishing and when they returned the dog was gone and you know credit to them for looking

01:07:10.020 for long after a year i would have assumed after a year the dog would have not survived but apparently

01:07:15.700 529 days in the wilderness surviving the heat avoiding obviously the snakes and spiders and

01:07:22.020 apparently they created a scent trail trap using one of um the dog's owner's t-shirts so the dog could

01:07:29.460 follow the scent to find their owner and uh was was then caught in a trap which they were able to

01:07:35.140 capture the dog very impressive so i'm impressed by everything about this to be honest not only the

01:07:42.100 the dog's survival skills but the the the way they trapped it was all very clever so uh well done

01:07:47.700 australia there's a part of the dog that would kind of hope like the the dog has like a scar over one eye

01:07:53.620 now has shrapnel sticking out of its head like snake in metal gear solid it's like punished dog

01:08:01.860 it has sort of ptsd it will see like a a tarantula on tv and start barking at it or a snake maybe

01:08:08.180 yeah stop biting its owners i'm glad it's all right comes back and it's actually fatter it's got like a

01:08:14.820 kangaroo's leg insane muscle yeah it's like to see a dachshund take down a kangaroo at some point and uh

01:08:22.260 speaking of eating things actually um kfc introduced fried chicken flavored toothpaste

01:08:28.340 and uh it's selling out apparently um which is weird i don't know who on earth wants this

01:08:34.180 and i imagine a specific kind of person wants this sort of thing and fat people well maybe 0.94

01:08:42.100 but i googled this um story to read a little bit about it um before preparing this and i discovered

01:08:49.140 something that if you google fried chicken flavored toothpaste you also get the first thing that

01:08:53.700 comes up is watermelon toothpaste which reminds moving on reminds me of some sort of stereotype

01:09:01.780 um didn't we do um uh an old video on stereotype accuracy we did yeah and they're very accurate

01:09:08.580 we did an episode of my series contemplations back in the day looking at the literature on stereotype

01:09:13.060 accuracy and yeah anyway that's uh of course informed by cookies and actual search uh history

01:09:22.900 that it's suggesting that so uh make of that what you will i don't know why i'm defaulting to using the

01:09:28.020 box again and uh here's something that's a bit depressing from may the man who married a hologram

01:09:34.740 in japan of course it's japan stereotypes again um can no longer communicate with his virtual wife

01:09:40.900 because the software that allowed the interaction is no longer supported and so he can no longer

01:09:46.100 interact with his wife which to be fair a lot of husbands are probably a little bit jealous probably

01:09:51.940 probably good for him in the long run i would say this guy's giving me like japanese chud vibes yes

01:10:00.100 don't don't go elliot rogers man just like talk i mean i i say talk to women i don't know what the

01:10:06.500 situation is like over there the annoying thing is i recognize that this was miku because there's

01:10:10.900 a guitar pedal yes the hakuni miku guitar pedal where you can make your guitar sound like hakuni

01:10:17.540 i would never buy it one of the best inventions of all time the thing is it's really annoying i i

01:10:24.100 watched a demonstration out of sheer curiosity i was like that is the most annoying i watched the old

01:10:28.980 anderton's one and uh for for a 20 minutes that's the same yeah like rob chapman using it yeah for the

01:10:35.700 for a 20 minute youtube video it was very entertaining beyond that it's just a knick-knack sorry we only

01:10:42.500 know about this because of guitar pedals sure yeah we swear honestly yeah yeah check my search history

01:10:49.620 yeah i i come from a low-trust society so okay so moving to july um a parrot was a witness to a

01:10:58.340 murder and it testified in court so um apparently um i believe it was this lady murdered her husband

01:11:10.100 this guy and apparently the parrot um was repeating the words don't shoot and that it was able to testify

01:11:18.900 in court and it was treated as a witness to the murder and helped to convict the lady of murdering

01:11:25.940 her husband so uh well done to the parrot it was an african gray parrot uh so well done they truly

01:11:32.020 are intelligent if they're right on as witnesses i don't know how long that they hold on to particular

01:11:38.500 repetitions for like the words that they repeat so that's impressive that it held on for long enough to

01:11:44.020 testify in court yeah it knew its role it had to testify it had to vindicate its owner i imagine she

01:11:52.580 this feels like a jerry springer moment or something my fictitious story i've said in my

01:11:56.660 head is that she was a cruel horrible lady obviously she killed her husband so she can't be that nice 1.00

01:12:01.060 and she was cruel to the parrot whereas he was nice and so the parrot remembered that he was honestly

01:12:07.700 makes the most sense so moving to august and other um weird uh wound related things in italy a man

01:12:19.460 survived for two days with a crossbow bolt lodged in his head um so apparently the police uh went for

01:12:28.100 a welfare check to his house and found him laying in bed with an arrow in his forehead and um i was

01:12:35.300 hoping he just opened the door like he was sleeping um he was 64 and he survived for two days the man had

01:12:45.380 accidentally or possibly intentionally shot himself in the head with his own crossbow i mean that's one

01:12:50.660 way like that's a hell of a way of trying to take it out yeah i know also who thinks that's going to

01:12:57.380 work and also who just is sort of sitting there just like well i'm gonna i'm gonna live with this

01:13:03.140 for two days maybe he was like well it has to kill me eventually

01:13:06.980 so he just pats about his house for a few days now pivoting back to the wholesome uh

01:13:14.820 this good old boy was elected mayor in a uh minnesota town awesome um i think there's only like

01:13:24.180 a very small number of people so they don't really need a mirror a mayor um he won by 12 votes

01:13:30.020 professional to me look at that hat and tie he looks more trustworthy than most politicians to be fair

01:13:35.060 although i have heard he's easily bribed um

01:13:40.180 and uh moving on to september for some reason all the weird news happened later on in the year for

01:13:45.540 whatever reason um so apparently um in the latest great escape a bunch of austrian nuns escaped a

01:13:53.380 care home with the help from a former student and a locksmith and both of these nuns all three of

01:13:59.620 these nuns sorry are in their 80s and then they escaped their care home and moved back into their

01:14:04.740 convent which was abandoned beast and they didn't have any running water or food there but they

01:14:09.860 managed to make it work and uh now that's where they're living um good on them beast i like the

01:14:16.500 idea of a sort of like one flew over the cuckoo's nest style escape here there was an

01:14:21.220 there's like an american indian who helped like break a window for some reason in in austria

01:14:31.220 this needs to be made into a film i think yeah that's incredible yeah that's absolutely incredible

01:14:35.460 netflix don't touch it we know what you'll do yeah exactly and from one part of the germanic world to

01:14:41.060 another um chad slugs have been tormenting germans this was probably my favorite story of the year so 1.00

01:14:50.580 um inhabitants of an apartment block in bavaria in southern germany who called the police to

01:14:55.780 investigate relentless buzzing of their doorbells late at night were surprised to find the culprit

01:14:59.940 was not a teenage prankster they had suspected but a slug the slug had been sliding up and down

01:15:05.460 the bell plate creating havoc in the building and and tearing angry residents out of their beds

01:15:10.580 long after midnight when they could not sleep for noise and the funniest thing about this is that

01:15:15.140 authorities um said that they had removed the slug so the police came by and took the slug presumably

01:15:22.740 away in handcuffs exactly put it in a you know a thing of salt executed it no um they moved it to a

01:15:31.380 different area um i like to think that this was a very very intelligent slug that knew what it was

01:15:38.180 doing the whole time was telling us something it's warning us of the monkey might they catch it and

01:15:44.180 it's got a tiny little cigarette in its mouth i knew it would have come to this eventually

01:15:50.900 maybe it's a reincarnation you know it's someone that the germans have wronged at some point

01:15:57.060 who knows who that could be um anyway moving on to november

01:16:00.820 you're right there um pope attended a rave in slovakia i'm not gonna say the ethnicity of the slug

01:16:14.740 apparently that the pope the new american pope went to a rave for some reason uh apparently they

01:16:21.460 were doing hosted a rave he didn't actually host the rave he attended and he didn't attend in person

01:16:27.140 he attended on a big screen which is even weirder really that you're at a rave and the pope's just

01:16:32.980 beamed in on a screen was he like also raving was he breaking it down yes it's a bit strange

01:16:42.100 okay apparently it was a religious themed rave um it's to celebrate a 75th birthday of an arch

01:16:50.980 bishop and uh rave to celebrate an archbishop's birthday yes and here's here's here's the guy

01:16:58.420 running it uh priest and dj um here he is who claims that electronic music is the path to god

01:17:06.900 was it was it like old choral hymns blasting with a deep bass beat underneath it it's like drum and bass

01:17:17.060 remixes of church choirs no i don't know what it is i imagine it was just uh regular old electronic

01:17:23.220 music to be honest but apparently the pope did beam in on the screen for a while so technically

01:17:28.580 he did attend j blended techno music with fragments of the pope's message and performed an unreleased

01:17:35.700 track dear young people which included phrases spoken by leo in his address

01:17:41.220 yes can we please just stop with this like i i'm i'm this close to bashing the guitar players

01:17:48.420 in churches can we just not go into raves thank you i'm a guitar player you're not not in mass

01:17:54.740 yeah not at mass true i've never played guitar at church so thank you i did my song earlier this year

01:18:00.580 and if you do it i'll take my vengeance people people uh people kind of realized before i did that

01:18:06.740 i'd accidentally written a christian metal song without realizing because because the lyrics

01:18:11.380 that chris put over the top of it i was like huh yeah but i don't think they'd want me playing it in

01:18:15.460 churches there are a few slurs in there i don't think there actually are um i didn't write the lyrics

01:18:25.620 nothing to do with me right donald jack hadfield impression it was yeah of donald trump

01:18:32.420 um so this is an interesting story so a ukrainian man uh fled the war in ukraine lucky him and now

01:18:42.180 he's a sumo wrestling champion in japan here he is lifting a cup um so this is a bit strange he's one

01:18:49.780 of the first foreigners to win it he's done a lot of eating by the looks of it um i think he's like 1.00

01:18:55.380 what was he 21 years old so he's of fighting age although he's a big target so maybe it's best he's not

01:19:00.420 involved um what a strange thing to do i i i couldn't believe this when i saw i'm just like

01:19:07.940 the world's not real is it really um but anyway uh there's also this from the irish independent

01:19:15.620 talking about a study that found that golden retriever and human emotions are driven by the

01:19:20.260 same genes and um apparently uh researchers identified specific genes such as ptpn1 linked

01:19:28.660 to dog aggression and human intelligence romo1 tied to trainability and emotional sensitivity

01:19:35.060 and variations and this is the name of the gene by the way hunk and ascc3 connecting dog nervousness

01:19:42.420 to human worry and mood swings and dr eleanor raffan says the findings are really striking they

01:19:48.260 provide strong evidence that humans and golden retrievers have shared genetic roots for their

01:19:52.900 behavior so there we go so just to confirm one of the genes that connected us was the gene for

01:19:59.860 trainability i know it's a bit weird isn't it so this implies how come it hasn't worked on any of you

01:20:06.740 this implies that if i you don't give me a single dog treat for i was gonna say if i tried to train

01:20:12.420 humans in the same way that you would a golden retriever it does work though it would work like

01:20:17.220 conditioning works on human beings it's not not that i would know um not that josh has ever fed any

01:20:22.980 of the people in cages in his basement dog treats to get them to do tricks silly harry i'm not rich

01:20:27.620 enough to afford a basement oh sorry the the people in cages in his bathroom if only it were that large

01:20:36.340 um anyway so in another animal related story not as happy this time um a us driver called uh the police

01:20:46.020 saying i just had a bold eagle drop a cat through my windshield and that's what the damage was done

01:20:50.820 could you imagine hell uh driving and then that happens to you and um sadly the uh the cat didn't

01:20:57.460 make it if you can imagine getting picked up by bold eagle and dropped from height for a windshield

01:21:03.380 probably doesn't do you any favors but just the horror of having this happen to you i think i'd

01:21:08.580 probably be a bit traumatized driving for a while after that yes um i don't know what the chances are

01:21:14.420 are of that happening to a person but uh i suppose you need to be aware that it is going to happen

01:21:19.780 and uh speaking of uh mortality um this was a story that went around the uk that we didn't cover

01:21:26.980 um but coffins are becoming too large for people to be cremated um amid a growing obesity crisis

01:21:35.540 and uh this is just sad really it's not really fun or uh or weird but yes it's weird if you're

01:21:44.020 watching this and you're fat don't plan on dying anytime soon go out and exercise that's my message

01:21:49.780 for you and now on to december which surprisingly was pretty packed with weird things um so here's 0.79

01:21:57.700 one again from britain so this lady who was a serial thief i believe it was either in i can't remember 0.77

01:22:05.940 whether it was tesco's or sainsbury's or something but somewhere in hampshire um she went on a crime spree 0.51

01:22:12.100 stealing nearly a thousand pounds in goods usually i think it was um i read somewhere just was it just

01:22:19.380 beneath the limit yeah it was dog food seven bags of dog food largely so she was wearing various wigs 1.00

01:22:25.460 to be able to get away with stealing dog food sorry what was that i was gonna say don't we operate in

01:22:29.540 a similar way to like shops in california where there's a limit where you can steal under and the

01:22:34.340 police won't be called maybe was she just trying to tread the fine line with dog food well she's 1.00

01:22:41.540 been punished anyway she's also been banned from wearing wigs um in the in shops so that's an 0.99

01:22:48.340 additional charge she's going to now have it reminds me of that extra from the lord of the rings where

01:22:54.180 dominic moinehan pretends to be a german interviewer and he's uh interviewing elijah wood and he's like

01:23:00.100 do you wear wigs when will you wear wigs i have not seen it it's fantastic i implore everyone who

01:23:06.900 doesn't know what i'm on about to watch that even if you've not watched the lord of the rings it's 0.72

01:23:10.580 funny you've really sold it to me um and here's another one um another ridiculous thing from britain

01:23:17.700 unfortunately we're seemingly over indexing on the weird news around the world an 86 year old man was

01:23:23.620 fined 250 pounds for littering after a leaf blew into his mouth and he spat it out again

01:23:29.380 oh i saw this one it's in stoke as well i know it's up your way isn't it yeah near my neck of the woods

01:23:35.220 um but uh much like this next story this is what i'm going to be doing at christmas

01:23:41.300 um apparently a drunk raccoon went on a boozy rampage in virginia

01:23:45.140 in a liquor store and this isn't the first time they found that they found their shop broken into

01:23:53.540 with bottles everywhere and and the product missing and they're like who could have done

01:23:58.020 this and they went into their bathroom and the racket was passed out like this

01:24:06.100 um it's happened at uni once i just think it's brilliant um there it is look and the fact that

01:24:13.140 it's a repeat offended here we go oh my god you walk into the bathroom and you're like not again

01:24:19.220 and this isn't the first time apparently either so to think that the raccoon was breaking in getting 0.97

01:24:24.500 drunk and then just chilling out in the bathroom cheeky bastard i've had many nights like that where 0.88

01:24:30.900 i've drank too much and fallen asleep next to the toilet i think we've all done it um but the thing is 0.97

01:24:36.900 that this isn't all this raccoon has done this one raccoon has also gotten drunk and uh broken

01:24:42.980 into a karate studio the dmv and other places as well it's the same picture as well it's like his rap sheet

01:24:55.860 that is priceless that i kind of respect it this is the the most nefarious raccoon i've ever heard of

01:25:04.260 also a karate studio i'm just imagining it drunk doing karate it's just like hazily applying for a

01:25:11.380 driver's license it's like a sort of simpson skit or something so um there was an animated film about

01:25:19.620 this raccoon once there needs to be um so here's a happy story this is again in italy they've uh

01:25:26.020 overdone overrepresented themselves in weird news a runaway migrant was uh captured after trying to

01:25:32.420 disguise himself in a nativity scene so this was only not too long ago and where is the picture

01:25:40.340 please say there's the picture somewhere please yes 1.00

01:25:47.860 what an idiot one of these things is not like the others 0.99

01:25:52.020 oh they've gone woke with the nativity now as well can you believe it he's not one of the wise men 1.00

01:26:01.860 i'll tell you that so what makes this funnier is that the town mayor was the one who spotted him in

01:26:07.620 the nativity scene as well so standing there for a while i don't know pretending to be a statue but

01:26:13.940 it says garlestone mayor flavio filoni spotted the unnamed 38 year old man from ghana hiding in a

01:26:20.340 life-size nativity i don't know whether this is the actual image because i don't know whether the

01:26:25.220 mayor would just be like well i'm gonna take a picture of this um and whether he has stood there

01:26:30.020 like a statue for a long time i mean it says it says view two images have we got have we got another one

01:26:35.060 so i haven't seen the second one to be one uh there it is next uh oh that's two i'm using my left hand

01:26:42.660 i might just do it yeah you can do it josh come on oh oh very disappointing uh

01:26:50.660 and uh my final piece of weird news is a sort of bit of meme magic really that the merriam

01:26:57.220 webster 2025 word of the year is slop and i have done my best to popularize it i've been using this

01:27:03.620 word quite a lot to complain about uh posts online in particular we wasn't slop every day and

01:27:09.860 there was a free letter prefix that has been removed from this but i'm not going to go into

01:27:15.460 that um there are any number of prefixes that you can put before this actually it's quite fun

01:27:21.380 try them out um my preferred use of the word slop is basically just low quality rubbish and the funny 0.60

01:27:28.500 thing is i've seen all sorts of people adopting the use of the word slop like one of the bbc verify

01:27:34.660 people was referring to stuff as ai slop i was just like this is like a total cultural victory

01:27:40.820 it's the perfect word for it though isn't it it is yeah and so that about concludes our uh weird

01:27:47.780 news roundup of 2025 i'm afraid you're gonna have to wait until next year for the next one

01:27:52.740 um but i hope you've enjoyed it and have a merry christmas and a happy new year

01:27:56.900 all right give me that back samson's gonna do uh video comments i'll read a few of these sigil 0.68

01:28:04.580 stone tweety bird got real sick of sylvester's shit and called his cousin apparently so uh that's 0.88

01:28:11.540 a random name is again trying to get us in trouble flavius magnus the parrot story happened in a video 0.97

01:28:17.140 once life imitates art i guess we've got quite a few decent ones from his rural usa has honesty boxes

01:28:24.340 there's a video somewhere of a black guy coming across one on a road trip and being tripped out

01:28:28.660 by it and saying if they was around here it wouldn't work urban americans yeah sigil stone when josh did

01:28:38.260 that google search did he say i did yeah in that exact way and then i started uh like smacking my lips a

01:28:48.260 bit and then he painted the bits of his hair onto his forehead and glued them for some reason dragon lady

01:28:54.260 chris josh i remember that english lion sweater from last year still looking good when's the

01:28:58.740 next video coming out on the youtube channel it's been months in the last one sad face i have been

01:29:03.860 working on a script about um how it was britain that built the british empire but at the minute

01:29:10.180 it's 5 000 words and about 12 pages long and it's not even finished i haven't even got our i

01:29:15.700 haven't even got to napoleon yet so um i haven't even got to napoleon yet so i think it's going to come

01:29:21.700 in january um but it's going to be a very highly polished and long video um and i spent a lot of

01:29:28.260 time researching it i'm excited for that sounds good and the last one i'll read wesley 1924 asks banana

01:29:35.540 banksky yeah it's banksy but the banana version right at the start all right we'll watch some of these now

01:29:43.220 ferris was mistaken a bit about the infamous child forced by his mom and government to be trans

01:29:50.660 jeff younger is from texas but his ex-wife took their son to california the texas court simply didn't

01:29:57.460 stop her taking him to california it is now in california where the mom is now transing her son 0.96

01:30:03.780 fully this is the most recent interview i found and i suggest everyone watch it thank you yeah i'm also

01:30:11.060 noticing some of the books on his bookshelf i can see sam francis leviathan and its enemies on there

01:30:16.580 so this guy is uh reading up some good stuff actually i'm always drawn straight to the bookshelves

01:30:23.700 i'm sorry man halo see says i'm in dumfries and right now i'm at the mausoleum for rabbi burns

01:30:32.260 here it is here looking pretty swanky

01:30:37.220 here look inside

01:30:41.060 robert burns died 21st of july 1796 aged 37

01:30:52.180 it's basically a pilgrimage if you're a scot i remember my grandparents would celebrate burns night

01:30:57.540 pretty religiously and you know i could recite some burns poems off by heart great stuff

01:31:03.620 a couple they're really nice i'm a jew i'm married to a muslim i don't seek myself to

01:31:11.140 blame the religion in the same way that somebody carries out a stabbing i don't blame the knife

01:31:14.820 isaiah boleyn wrote that were jews truly blessed with cleverness then israel will be the most

01:31:19.700 intelligent nation on earth this not being the case we must take the wisdom of jews with a pinch 1.00

01:31:24.420 more salt mr s's expostulation was the kind of high-minded cold unsympathetic intellectualism that i

01:31:31.060 hate from people regardless of their religion and to me it revealed a fundamental want of care in his

01:31:36.580 thought i hadn't seen anything from the s's stuff is he actually married to a muslim i didn't know that

01:31:44.100 i mean that's i i didn't know that either send them over to the middle east he's gonna cure all conflict

01:31:51.380 no i thought that was van halen that you do remember that south park

01:31:58.260 the talk of drone warfare yesterday reminded me of the williams wasp aka the flying trash can

01:32:05.380 it was a little more than a small jet engine with a housing wrapped around it

01:32:09.860 although it did have a flight time of 20 minutes back in the 80s they didn't think it could replace

01:32:14.900 traditional aircraft so no further development was done that's a shame because it's quite neat

01:32:22.820 i've never heard of this it looks cool yeah this looks very star wars as well

01:32:27.700 i don't know if it's real but that's amazing it reminds me of the little hover things from metal

01:32:31.780 gear solid 3. niche reference there a couple of years ago i indulged in a comments argument on youtube

01:32:40.260 as to which military would be more deadly in a fight mobile infantry or the astartes although

01:32:45.620 heinlein's infantry wore power armor and jump packs deploying tactical nukes on the battlefield

01:32:50.420 astartes have the same kit and the advantage of being genetically modified to be stronger smarter

01:32:56.100 and conditioned to wage war without the psychological effects heinlein's book isn't about how superior his

01:33:01.860 mobile infantry may be but the struggles that made them effective citizens in his world heinlein's

01:33:07.700 book is a masterful discourse that the black library will never attain 1.00

01:33:14.020 i do need to read it and i need to read some of his other works as well

01:33:18.660 is there anything else or was oh

01:33:23.060 speaking of ai slump

01:33:25.300 i love curry i love curry it smells so warm and sweet

01:33:30.100 i love curry i love curry it's tasty food to eat i love curry i love curry i share it with my friends

01:33:39.380 i love curry i love curry good flavors never end

01:33:43.700 i like how one of the haunt my dreams i like how one of the actual orcs from lord of the ring

01:33:56.020 has the two towers featured in it was it was the looks like oh wait no it wasn't looks like meat back

01:34:01.300 on the menu was it that was another guy he's the one that goes after mary and pippin and chases them

01:34:05.380 into fango and they're yeah washed by tree beard yes yes you're right it's been too long since i've

01:34:10.420 watched them all right is that all of them samson looks so get a few written ones in well yeah very

01:34:17.780 very quickly uh do you want to read one or two of yours firaz yeah sure binary surfer says uh i

01:34:24.100 predicted this on a stream about five years ago with a few others on the attacks we were pre-covered at

01:34:29.540 monthly attempted attacks across europe we reached weekly attempted attacks around 2022 and we are now

01:34:35.380 almost daily attempts effectively uh soon it will be weekly in each major country i suspect we will

01:34:42.260 eventually reach daily attempts five to ten years in every major country of which a percentage was

01:34:47.860 will always get through of course yeah i mean this this is the trend right this is there is actually

01:34:53.140 they're fighting a war but the government insists that they're not a problem it's insane it'd be like

01:34:58.660 that opening scene from children of men yeah uh kevin fox says i noticed that the australian

01:35:04.500 government's new hate speech laws their planning included making claims of racial superiority being

01:35:10.100 a criminal offense so leftist politicians speaks of far-right speech obviously will not be used

01:35:15.300 against muslims claiming islam is the only true religion uh and all other religions are pagan and 0.76

01:35:21.460 say online that islam is a death cult and albanese will have plod on your doorstep in minutes yeah pretty 1.00

01:35:26.980 much true pretty much uh russian garbage human with an interesting one which i will skip 0.97

01:35:33.780 unfortunately and michael dribel was with also a good one which i will also pass over but thank you

01:35:40.740 i'll read some of mine then sophie live man that honesty box is so sad we have them in denmark too

01:35:45.620 out at roadsides as you drive through the country and can buy potatoes eggs honey strawberry etc lovely but

01:35:51.300 yeah we also started having theft issues especially in the zealand area where shockingly the highest migrant 1.00

01:35:55.860 population is because copenhagen is in zealand well there you go uh let's see uh roman observer the
