00:00:00.000
It seems we have reached a liminal moment in our politics. We have recently crossed
00:00:13.940
a threshold from which there is no going back. We must understand what is happening to us
00:00:20.160
and what is at stake. This is the will of the second issue of Islander magazine. The
00:00:26.240
magnificent success of the first issue has only emboldened us to pierce deeper past the
00:00:31.900
veil and uncover the mysteries beyond. It is in this gradual process of becoming in which
00:00:38.240
we will find within ourselves the determination and grit to endure. Luckily, we have many great
00:00:44.680
thinkers to help us. We feature outstanding exclusive articles from famous lawsmiths such
00:00:51.760
as Dave Green, Marcus Follin, Morgoth's Review, Stefan Molyneux, Dr. Charles Cornish Dale,
00:00:58.340
Dr. Nima Parvini and myself, along with many more. These are couched in the beautiful aesthetic
00:01:04.640
experience that you have come to expect from Islander. And as with the first issue, each
00:01:09.980
issue of Islander is unique and distinct. It will only be printed once and for a limited
00:01:24.420
Bet you didn't expect that, did you? Welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters episode 999.
00:01:39.920
Okay? It's amazing. It's excellent. It has effects similar to Viagra.
00:01:48.460
That's not actually true. But it's wonderful. It's brilliant. I'm in it. Josh is in it,
00:01:54.460
sadly. But, you know, can't all be winners, can they?
00:01:57.400
I've got the fewest number of words per person out of anyone.
00:02:00.540
It actually does. Josh has been very artistic with this and you should all be very proud.
00:02:07.420
But yeah, it's great. It's wonderful. And it's available on the website right now. We're
00:02:11.640
printing them to order this time instead of pre-orders. So if you order it right now,
00:02:15.460
you should be able to get it in the next two to three weeks. And it's a limited run. So you
00:02:19.920
should be able to have them available until about a month, maybe five weeks from now. I don't know
00:02:26.220
exactly. I don't know if we've figured it out yet. But it is limited. And when we say limited,
00:02:30.780
we do mean limited. So get it right now. Same with all of the wonderful merch that we have on
00:02:35.160
the website that you can get. Islander Forestry Company t-shirt. The Calvin Robinson t-shirt.
00:02:45.460
Hey, pay me money. And I will speak like a normal human being. Maybe. Question.
00:02:53.580
Yeah. Calvin's still got his show after. It's different now that he's not here. He's
00:03:00.300
He's doing a hands-free show. He's not going to be in the studio.
00:03:02.360
Also, we've got this. You may have noticed there's a special number today. 999. What
00:03:08.700
comes after 999? Not the police very quickly. No, not in England. No. But also 1,000. Yes,
00:03:16.360
1,000. Because that's what tomorrow's episode is. Episode 1,000, where we'll be having a normal
00:03:21.120
podcast to begin with. Typical 1 to 2 o'clock British summertime. And then afterwards, we'll
00:03:27.240
be doing an extended freemium lads hour, which should feature all the lads where we'll be
00:03:32.280
talking about the podcast, answering your questions. It'll be a grand old time. Also, if you're
00:03:38.880
having any trouble with the video players that are on the website, Odyssey or Rumble, there
00:03:43.740
are alternative web players underneath on the Lotus Eaters page. So use them instead.
00:03:50.060
We can't control how these third-party video players work, sadly. Also, one last thing before
00:03:54.840
we start. This. Oh, what a succulent tome. Ah, no. Harry's going to eat James O'Brien's
00:04:06.400
book for his segment. I'm going to eat his face. Metaphorically. No, somebody sent this
00:04:11.880
in for us, which is James O'Brien's latest book called How They Broke Britain, which is
00:04:17.120
different from his other two books, where he complains about how correct he is about everything.
00:04:21.220
And you know what? You know what? I'm going to read it. I'm going to read it so I can
00:04:26.280
understand all of the blue and on insane leftist conspiracy theories. And once I've read it,
00:04:31.280
I'll report back to you all with my findings. This is a true anthropological study. This is
00:04:36.580
more dangerous than going into the deepest depths of the Amazon. So wish me luck. Send me your
00:04:42.240
prayers. I need your strength, gentlemen. Anyway, with that, we're talking about...
00:04:46.780
We're talking about news, which is Haitians. Again, they're still eating things, not people
00:04:53.340
Yep. We're going to talk about the cult of anti-white self-hatred and India's racist cow
00:04:58.600
gangs, which I have no idea about. Very interested. Very interested to figure out what Josh is going
00:05:05.140
to assail me with there. Anyway, with that, let's get into it.
00:05:08.160
Oh, yeah. Stuff. So, yes. Springfield, Ohio. This has been a center of lots of political
00:05:15.720
controversy for what is otherwise quite a small town in America. As you can see, if I zoom
00:05:21.540
out to the entirety of America, it's very tiny. You can't even see it. And of course, this
00:05:27.260
is regarding the 20,000 Haitians that have been moved by the government to this small town that
00:05:34.060
didn't necessarily ask for this. This is like a Call of Duty airdrop with even worse disastrous
00:05:41.280
Yeah, this is getting crushed by the crate that you've just called in. But yes, obviously,
00:05:47.620
very small place. Probably not equipped to deal with 20,000 Haitians. And of course, there
00:05:53.380
have been lots of conversations about things going on. There was a case where I believe a
00:05:57.880
man drove the wrong way down a highway and hit a school bus on the first day of school,
00:06:02.720
sadly. Yes, we'll be talking about that. In Harry's segment. But sadly, a child died
00:06:07.780
from this. As well as the more widely reported, for some reason, discussions about them eating
00:06:15.500
things they should not be eating. And we'll be looking into that. But talking of things
00:06:20.880
that are centers for political controversy, the Islander magazine is out now. So if you want
00:06:27.080
to see what all the cool people are reading, even Harry's got one, they took pity on him.
00:06:34.720
You are now. Yeah. Just buying Islander magazine does make you cool. But we have this on the
00:06:39.760
merch store for a limited time only. It's very good. There are some great writers in
00:06:43.400
there. I've had a little sneaky peek at what's in there. And I'm really looking forward to
00:06:50.380
Don't tell them that. They won't buy it then, will they?
00:06:55.760
That's true. There's also merch as well. So we've got some t-shirts and stuff. A mug.
00:07:01.860
They're all pretty cool. And you will be too if you buy them. So do that. And yes, let's
00:07:08.960
start about sort of fact checking some stuff. So this lady here is not Haitian. She is one
00:07:15.760
of those so-called African-Americans. And she is the person who killed...
00:07:21.700
That's true, yes. Both geographically and potentially genetically as well. But yeah, she is the lady
00:07:28.160
who killed and ate a cat. This has been circulated around lots of different spheres, suggesting
00:07:35.460
that this person was a Haitian. And this was in Canton, Ohio. It wasn't in Springfield, Ohio,
00:07:42.180
which is, believe it or not, a different place. But her name, what is it? Alexis Telia
00:07:47.720
Feral, living up to the second name there. Very feral, eating a cat in the street. But
00:07:52.980
there is a video of it as well to go along with this. I wouldn't advise watching it because
00:07:57.400
it has a dead cat in. And if you're a normal person, that's disgusting and horrible. And
00:08:02.600
yes, I wanted to play what JD Vance had to say to CNN about this because I thought it was
00:08:08.560
interesting. Because I'm going to be correcting the narrative, basically. So there has been
00:08:12.640
some rubbish posted, but there's also been some good stuff. And I think actually JD Vance
00:08:16.440
makes a very good point here. And I'm starting to see why Trump might have actually picked
00:08:21.460
him. So let's have a listen to what he says to CNN.
00:08:23.740
What I would say is he brought up this misleading false claim that you yourself have talked about
00:08:29.900
in recent days about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, abducting people's pets and
00:08:35.160
eating them, which officials there have said is not true. You yourself acknowledged it may
00:08:39.720
be false on Twitter. You still told people to keep spreading it. But Trump just amplified
00:08:44.200
it to tens of millions of people who were watching. Why push something that's not true?
00:08:51.220
Well, first of all, city officials have not said it's not true. They've said they don't
00:08:55.040
have all the evidence, but we've heard no evidence. We've heard from a number of constituents
00:08:58.580
on the ground, Caitlin, who both firsthand and secondhand reports saying this stuff is
00:09:03.680
happening. So they very clearly, meaning the people on the ground dealing with this, think
00:09:08.060
that it is happening. And I think that it's important for journalists to actually get on
00:09:11.640
the ground and uncover this stuff for themselves. When you have a lot of people saying my pets
00:09:16.780
are being abducted or geese at the city pond are being abducted and slaughtered right
00:09:21.000
in front of us. This is crazy stuff. And again, whether those exact rumors turn out to be
00:09:27.500
mostly true, somewhat true, whatever the case may be, Caitlin, this town has been ravaged by
00:09:33.680
20,000 migrants coming in. Healthcare costs are up. Housing costs are up. Communicable diseases
00:09:39.460
like HIV and TB have skyrocketed in this small Ohio town. This is what Kamala Harris's border
00:09:45.740
policies have done. And I think it's interesting, Caitlin, that the media didn't care about the
00:09:50.760
carnage wrought by these policies until we turned it into a meme about cats. And that
00:09:57.300
speaks to the media's failure to care about what's going on in these communities. If we
00:10:01.580
have to meme about it to get the media to care, we're going to keep on doing it because
00:10:05.120
the media could, should care about what's going on.
00:10:08.260
It is. Yeah. I was just about to say that that was quite politically astute and quite
00:10:15.880
deft in that there are lots of real problems. He didn't necessarily shoehorn it in like some
00:10:20.600
politicians do where they use it as a segue to talk about what they want to talk about
00:10:24.220
that makes them look good. He said, listen, there are lots of real things that we should
00:10:27.600
be talking about. We did this because you refuse to acknowledge these problems. And we're just
00:10:32.500
using this as a vehicle. Whether it's basically true or not, we don't know yet. But that's what
00:10:36.900
people on the ground are saying. I think the greater point that he's making is that whether
00:10:40.860
or not the stories of the cats or dogs are true, we don't know yet, is that all of these people
00:10:46.820
being airdropped into this community has created chaos and causing massive problems. So that's
00:10:53.420
Yes. And we can see that these lessons have not been learnt and we will do. But of course,
00:11:00.000
there has been confirmation. Here is me tweeting about it very modestly, including that in the
00:11:06.000
segment. But I've included it because it isolates the quote here of the person calling the police.
00:11:11.900
And this is there's an audio recording. I can't remember the Federalist reported on it. And this
00:11:17.360
has been pretty widely shared now. And in that recording, someone says, I see a group of Haitian
00:11:22.360
people. There's about four of them. They all had geese in their hands. And this is a call to the
00:11:27.180
police. But the police didn't file a report on it. But they received a call suggesting that the
00:11:32.220
residents are calling up. It's just the police haven't formally recognised this problem.
00:11:37.840
Oh, fantastic. I wonder where I've seen that before.
00:11:40.260
It's funny that. But there's better than that. There is this. A man, a Haitian man, presumably,
00:11:48.980
carrying a goose in what looks like America. This has been circulating. I've not been able to confirm
00:11:54.980
whether this is definitely a Haitian man and definitely Springfield, Ohio. But the fact
00:12:01.600
that this is circulating is interesting. Whether it's true or not, we can't know yet. However,
00:12:07.100
given the nature of Haiti, I don't think it's beyond the realms of possibility.
00:12:13.640
They eat dirt. They eat dirt there. They eat dirt cooking.
00:12:18.880
As in, you're not... They actually do eat dirt. Also...
00:12:22.140
So a goose is going to be a full three-course meal to them.
00:12:25.800
You may remember, this is the Australian Associated Press fact check. So this is trusted,
00:12:31.740
accurate, and impartial. And they're saying that...
00:12:37.560
Yes, it is. But this is from March of 2024, when we were all talking about General Barbecue.
00:12:43.540
And there was a video circulating of a gang member engaging in cannibalism. And they said,
00:12:48.320
this is false. This actually comes from 2021. Which is interesting for our purposes, because
00:12:54.100
it does suggest that cannibalism is going on in Haiti.
00:12:57.400
So they did the classic fact check of, well, we'll correct the date and say the whole thing
00:13:01.560
is false, but the actual cannibalism part is true.
00:13:03.920
Yes. So the video that was circulating, they were suggesting at the time that this was
00:13:09.800
this General Barbecue's henchman or something like that, and they're eating people. However,
00:13:16.480
it seems like it's an older video, but it doesn't put it past the realms of possibility that there
00:13:20.960
is cannibalism going on. How widespread, of course, is very difficult to know. And as Carl rightly
00:13:25.960
pointed out to me the last time I talked about this, it's not necessarily all Haitian people doing
00:13:33.860
I'm going to add another caveat. Any cannibalism at all is bad.
00:13:39.240
I'm not going to disagree with that, of course.
00:13:41.220
I think that's implicit in me talking about it.
00:13:43.460
The fact that the cannibalism is going on and being filmed in Haiti is a bad thing.
00:13:48.840
I have seen the video as well, and I don't encourage people to go and watch it because
00:13:51.980
it's gross. But there is a man pulling flesh off a leg in a fire, clearly a human leg.
00:13:57.660
It's unmistakable and eating it. And yes, I do think that this is legitimate.
00:14:03.940
So there is also this as well. This is a study from 1959 talking about the persistence of cannibalism
00:14:12.280
in Haiti. So it's a long tradition, right? And of course, there's these articles as well
00:14:21.600
from the 15th of March. This is before all of this pet stuff existed, where Rolling Stone
00:14:27.900
was trying to say, this is an absurd lie that there's a cannibal invasion. But I think the
00:14:33.540
point being is that people are pointing to the fact that this is going on to acknowledge
00:14:39.180
the massive gulf between American society. In America, it's not difficult to get a burger.
00:14:45.120
In Haiti, they're resorting to eating people in very rare cases.
00:14:51.340
I have to keep harping on this, which is that they actively eat dirt. They make it into cookies.
00:14:57.260
According to the clip that keeps going around, a lot of their women spend all day preparing
00:15:03.560
They're trying their best, Harry, with what they have.
00:15:10.960
But I'm going to go through some of the articles very quickly. Just quickfire through all of
00:15:16.420
these. The Hill, talking about conspiracy theories about them eating pets. Complete BS and misinformation,
00:15:23.720
apparently, according to the White House anyway. Here's CNN. False rumours about them. It's
00:15:31.100
difficult to tell because they've not actually investigated it yet, as J.D. Vance pointed out.
00:15:34.900
We don't know, but there are reports from the local residents saying this sort of thing.
00:15:39.640
There is some evidence to suggest it could be true.
00:15:46.720
Yeah, we can't say anything for certain, but the mainstream media is saying for certain
00:15:52.960
Which normally means it might well be happening.
00:15:55.460
Of course, when it comes out, as I suspect it will, that it is happening when an independent
00:16:00.780
...gets footage, yes. They'll say, why do you care? It's not even your cat, bro.
00:16:05.300
They'll probably be... I'm calling it now. There'll be an article saying, actually, cats
00:16:08.560
are devastating to the local wildlife. They catch birds and mice that are essential parts
00:16:13.000
of the Native American fauna. Or something like that. They'll try and justify it.
00:16:17.420
But here's ABC, Trump talking about abducting and eating pets.
00:16:22.760
That was the best part of the debate. I'll hate it. No argument.
00:16:26.540
Again, NBC, baseless claim. BBC in the UK, baseless claim. Same words, funny enough.
00:16:36.040
Yes, baseless. It's funny. There's almost like there's coordination between the media.
00:16:42.140
It is true. All of my allegations are baseless. And the racist rumour that Haitian immigrants
00:16:48.400
are abducting people's pets and eating them in Ohio... It sounds like they're abducting
00:16:53.480
them from elsewhere, from the wording of that title. But that's just me being a grammar
00:16:56.680
mid-century German. And then Reuters did a fact-check. No evidence of Haitian immigrants
00:17:09.700
Although, I think it's relevant to point out, according to NeoUnrealist, on our Rumble
00:17:15.500
rants, for $1, thank you, he said that that picture of the man carrying a goose was taken
00:17:22.300
Which is far from Springfield. But for the sake of accuracy, it was in a news article in
00:17:29.100
We have live fact-checking from our audience. So there we go. We're better than the mainstream
00:17:35.120
And if somebody could fact-check the fact-check, and then we can get that in as well, we can
00:17:40.920
We're going to have a stack of fact-checks. Just go on forever. And yeah, this one, the
00:17:47.100
headlines disappeared for some reason, so I'm just going to ignore that. So anyway, on to
00:17:52.920
Who is Sneeko, for the audience watching at home?
00:17:57.280
Um, a weird Muslim fella. I don't know exactly what he does or is. I just see him saying stupid
00:18:05.260
He's a streamer, and according to our office manager, apparently he used to work for Mr.
00:18:11.980
So the Mr. Beast to Muslim anti-Semite pipeline is a thing.
00:18:19.940
Hmm. Interesting, isn't it? The controversies keep on stacking up, don't they? But because
00:18:25.900
he's half-Haitian, he took real exception to this story, and he was really angry about
00:18:30.820
it. He's saying it's fake, just like the Muslim refugee who was actually born in Cardiff. It's
00:18:35.700
already verified that the cat lady was just a black American, which is actually true.
00:18:39.840
But I like in that he's already just... The Muslim refugee, yeah, that was misinformation
00:18:45.520
that was spread to begin with, but the whole born in Cardiff, he is Rwandan. The Southport
00:18:52.460
attacker, alleged attacker, is Rwandan. But he's trying to dismiss that immediately.
00:18:58.660
Of course, yeah. It's easy to pick on third world countries like Haiti for being poor.
00:19:04.560
I find that funny, that within it he's unintentionally dunking on them. But we should not
00:19:09.720
demonise innocent people. Well, we're not demonising innocent people. We're saying
00:19:13.240
the people who are doing the bad things are bad. You know, we're not blanketly saying
00:19:17.460
all of them are bad. This is a very complex moral argument you're making here.
00:19:20.260
I know. People are accountable for their own actions. However, I think it's legitimate
00:19:24.440
if you're talking about immigration, that if people live in a country like Haiti, you should
00:19:28.620
probably be concerned about who they are and what they do, because it's a very different
00:19:32.900
society than America. So, Haiti has been completely destabilised ever since the Clinton
00:19:37.580
Foundation stole billions of dollars in charity money. Why did they need the charity money?
00:19:42.760
America doesn't need to function with charity money.
00:19:47.000
I saw a lot of people saying, when I posted about Haiti, they were saying, oh, well, France
00:19:51.860
ruined them through the reparations that were asked for after, you know, all of the wanton,
00:19:57.360
needless murder of all of the white people who lived on...
00:20:00.640
It's funny how no one touches on that, isn't it?
00:20:01.940
...on San Domingo, as it should be known. And they were saying, well, they asked for,
00:20:07.560
however much money, I think, in modern currency, it would come to about $560 million.
00:20:13.740
For the past 70 years, Haiti has received, let me think, yeah, $20 billion in international
00:20:20.060
aid. So, it doesn't help, and if it is true that it just keeps going to various intermediaries
00:20:26.380
or a corrupt government of Haiti, well then, what makes you think that any form of reparations
00:20:31.780
would get to the people who need the help in the first place?
00:20:34.280
So, yes, obviously this is a load of nonsense, but he's gone to Haiti, I think. The beautiful
00:20:42.120
country of Haiti. By the way, I challenge anyone to go on Google Earth and have a look
00:20:47.100
at Haiti from the skies, and tell me how beautiful, particularly their capital, Port-au-Prince,
00:20:52.960
is. Because, let me tell you, it looks like District 9. That's what it looks like, to be
00:20:59.200
honest. Yeah. It's also worth pointing out that there have been discussions about the
00:21:05.840
culture of Haiti, let's just say that. And this is a video here looking at, I'm going
00:21:13.220
to play it ever so briefly, I'm just going to turn the audio off. But basically, there's
00:21:17.420
a toilet here, and there are also people washing and swimming and fishing in the same place.
00:21:24.260
Yes. They've built a little toilet shack on the water. Mm-hmm. And he's pointing to
00:21:28.620
all these boats, and then there are people swimming there, and there are also people
00:21:32.300
fishing there. And that's also where they're going to the toilet. Yes. Which is very, very
00:21:39.880
basic sanitation. You can see just from the status of the structures that this is not...
00:21:46.680
That doesn't look very stable either, does it? It doesn't look particularly to the standards
00:21:51.000
of American architecture, does it? Let's be honest. And Keith Woods here points out that
00:21:57.600
the average IQ in Haiti is 65 to 70, for whatever reason that might be. And because Sneeko is
00:22:04.080
half Haitian, I wanted to point out this as well. He took an IQ test, he got below average,
00:22:10.420
just throwing that up. Only slightly. Only slightly. Only five points below. So I feel
00:22:16.780
like he has a sort of vested interest in vindicating the people of Haiti. If you're interested in
00:22:21.680
taking this IQ test, it's free on Mensa Norway's website. Let us know your results.
00:22:26.300
What are they, paying you? No, I just think it's interesting. It is interesting, to be fair.
00:22:29.920
But if you want to see the consequences of this test score, you only need to look at this.
00:22:36.080
If you're a white supremacist, you are Jewish, according to Sneeko. For some reason,
00:22:40.620
I don't know how you can make that leap in logic. Maybe my IQ is just too high to understand.
00:22:45.220
This is because he's been associated in France with Nick Fuentes and the Groypers for a long time.
00:22:50.500
And after the whole Haiti-Springfield thing, he has suddenly split from them and started to make
00:22:55.600
a lot of insults. So of course, being Groypers, their only insult that they know is,
00:23:03.080
Very silly in this context. So now he's throwing that claim out against them as he wildly tries
00:23:09.120
to defend one half of his family. I mean, I don't blame him for trying to defend his family.
00:23:13.380
Yeah, I understand that. So obviously, Haiti shares an island with the Dominican Republic.
00:23:21.120
And like North Korea and South Korea, you can see the division in the societies. Obviously,
00:23:27.400
on the top is not Haiti. The one on the bottom is obviously Haiti. You can see the flags, right?
00:23:34.280
So the Dominican Republic looks like a functional society. And Haiti less so, I would say.
00:23:46.380
So you can see the comparison. Obviously, there's a lot of difference there.
00:23:52.480
And this isn't to say as well that the Dominican Republic won't also have poorer,
00:23:59.500
A lot of these side-by-side comparisons can be a little bit uncharitable. But it illustrates
00:24:04.320
the difference, doesn't it? I don't think any places like the ones showcased in the
00:24:08.620
Dominican Republic could exist in Haiti. So here we have a tweet from some random dude.
00:24:17.200
But if you want to see the consequences of that average IQ, what can you spot about this
00:24:25.200
I didn't notice until somebody pointed it out to me. He's pulling it off with the confidence,
00:24:30.520
but what is that in that man's hand? Is it a gun? No. It's a stick. He's got a stick and
00:24:39.760
he's holding it like a gun. Fair play. He's on a confidence play.
00:24:43.200
Yes. This is like the real-world equivalent of playing poker, right? He's calling a...
00:24:50.080
Well, he's making a bluff, actually. He's not calling one.
00:24:52.700
And this is also in response to this girl, Katie, saying that you can't think that IQ
00:24:58.000
is a real or useful measure of anything and also believe any country in the world has
00:25:01.720
an average IQ of 67. This is scientific... I know the leftists like to use this, but this
00:25:07.200
is clear scientific denial. We have a lot of evidence showing the functionality of IQ
00:25:12.620
as a measurement of something. Something useful that we can measure... we can use to measure
00:25:18.540
the likelihood of somebody to either be mentally defunct, you could say, or achieve things and
00:25:27.080
It correlates with success, more generally speaking. It's not the main factor, but it's
00:25:32.620
one that is significant enough to be worthy of study, I think, is my...
00:25:36.820
Yeah, and it's shown time and time again, it is measuring something significant.
00:25:42.100
Yes, it is. I mean, it's one of the most studied things in psychology, so yes.
00:25:46.300
Yeah, and sadly, this is what it looks like when your average IQ is 67.
00:25:50.340
Well, I've actually got a detailed breakdown here from Jeremy Kaufman, who does some good stuff,
00:25:54.960
actually, and he says, with an IQ of 67, let's talk about what that means, with an IQ of 67
00:25:59.780
or below, the average Haitian over half the country would be considered too disabled to
00:26:03.800
be eligible for the death penalty in the United States. Some at this level will struggle to
00:26:08.560
understand the cause and effect of basic things, as well as to participate in American society
00:26:12.520
at all. Even filling out forms will be hard. At one standard deviation up from 67, we have
00:26:18.340
an IQ of 82. Around one in six Haitians are intelligent enough to be a below average janitor,
00:26:24.960
that this is the level of intelligence of poor urban areas in America.
00:26:29.340
So, the top one in six are not even intelligent enough, according to this data, to be able
00:26:42.680
to do basic functions in American society, which is a very interesting thing.
00:26:48.940
But yes, I wanted to just cover this, add some sort of science to the debate, as well
00:26:55.400
as correct some misinfo and point out the fact that, yes, the mainstream media doesn't know
00:27:01.940
these things. It can't rightly say this, and it may well come out that these reports have
00:27:06.860
some truth to them about people eating pets. Because, of course, we have the precedent set
00:27:13.040
in Haiti itself, where they've come from, that they're not too picky eaters. So, there
00:27:20.500
Should we go through some of these Rumble rounds?
00:27:27.340
Okay, Rumble is glitched, so they've been duplicated.
00:27:29.500
Oh, all right. Okay. So, first off, the Shadow Band for $10. Thank you very much. Says,
00:27:33.820
congrats on 999 podcasts. It's been a wild ride, and keeping such a good mood when venturing
00:27:39.600
into such depressing topics. Ha ha, you only see us while we're on the podcast.
00:27:44.300
Bald Eagle 1787 says, for $2, no official reports. So, if there are no official reports
00:27:50.600
of anything, then it never happened, according to the mainstream media, even if there are
00:27:53.900
eyewitness accounts, and they wonder why people don't trust them. Excellent point.
00:27:57.380
And finally, from the last Russian for $2, Elon tweeted, a video of a daughter of a Haitian
00:28:02.860
immigrant explaining that most Haitians do eat cats and practice voodoo with a link.
00:28:07.300
So, I think while we're still on this subject...
00:28:10.400
Let's take a quick look here, shall we? So, let me just load this up.
00:28:15.140
I really hope it doesn't show us. We need to be careful in case it shows, like, how they
00:28:22.780
Okay, here we go. So, let's just check this out while we're still on the subject.
00:28:26.100
My father immigrated from Haiti to the United States in the late 60s as a teenager, and
00:28:32.260
I want to talk about these recent comments about the Haitians in Springfield, Ohio.
00:28:37.020
First, I want to say, my father and I are now estranged, but I did know him in my very,
00:28:43.180
very young years, and when he immigrated, he was one person, and they weren't sending,
00:28:49.360
you know, thousands of Haitians in one area. He wasn't eating people's pets, and he didn't
00:28:55.420
practice voodoo. But, he did say that most of the island, the majority of the island,
00:29:03.480
The reason they eat cats is for two reasons. Number one is survival. This is the poorest
00:29:09.040
country in the Western Hemisphere. You can't just go to a food bank like you can here, or
00:29:15.100
just go to McDonald's and get some free or cheap food. Unless, of course, there's a Christian
00:29:19.960
missionary there. People in the United States have a really hard time imagining that type
00:29:24.840
of thing, but it is true. Second, they do do animal sacrifices for their religion, voodoo.
00:29:31.840
They make these animal sacrifices to these gods for different reasons. You can do your own
00:29:36.720
research on this. Do I think voodoo is a demonic religion? Yes, I do. That doesn't mean, obviously,
00:29:42.920
that doesn't mean that you hate these people. These people need prayer, but you can't just take
00:29:48.420
over all these people from another country and expect it to work. Not to mention, it doesn't
00:29:53.700
fix the problems of that country. And there's more people left in Haiti that we can bring over.
00:29:59.240
Yeah, I think those are all reasonable points. Yeah, fair enough. But, yeah, I only just recently,
00:30:05.420
I didn't even realize until recently that voodoo came from Haiti. So, yeah, that's another reason
00:30:10.480
to not want Haitians. You don't want to be sacrificed? No, I don't want to be sacrificed. I don't want my
00:30:16.180
pets to be sacrificed. I don't want my friends to be sacrificed. That's a very radical position.
00:30:20.120
Josh, if you were being sacrificed by a Haitian, I would try to save you.
00:30:23.920
Ah, I would save you too. Yeah, that's one for the shippers out there. All you disgusting freaks.
00:30:30.820
Anyway, let's talk about the cult of self-hatred. Whose self-hatred, you might ask? Well, you know where
00:30:37.420
I'm going with this one, which is white people being taught to hate themselves from birth. Why is it
00:30:43.280
that this happens? How is it that this happens? Let's take a look. But first, if you don't hate
00:30:49.600
yourself, if you have respect for yourself and want to create more opportunities for yourself
00:30:54.840
and make yourself smarter, you should buy this. Islander Volume 2, which is the Lotus Eater's
00:31:01.780
official magazine now. We've got some wonderful articles in here from people like myself. Josh
00:31:07.740
wrote a poem for it. We've got articles from people like Dave the Distributist, from The Golden
00:31:12.800
One. Stefan Molyneux. Stefan Molyneux decided to come out of hiding. Nima Parvini. Nima Parvini.
00:31:19.320
We've got plenty of excellent content in there. Roig Nationalist. You can stop now. Harry
00:31:25.860
Robinson. I already said me. There's lots of fantastic articles in here, so it's well worth
00:31:31.880
a read. And it is limited. For a very short time only, they will be available through the
00:31:36.860
website. We're not doing pre-orders. They are printed upon order. So once you order,
00:31:42.800
you should receive it within about two to three weeks, and they will be limited. So only for
00:31:47.340
about a month, maybe a month and a bit, will you be able to get a hold of these. So get
00:31:51.600
them now before they're all gone. Also, get the merchandise that we have here. Get a four
00:31:57.040
England poster. Get a mug. Get this awesome Islander metal t-shirt. This is fantastic.
00:32:02.740
I want one. I need one. Or I'll cry. Anyway, moving on. So the first thing I wanted to look
00:32:11.380
at is this recent article from The Guardian published earlier on today around first thing
00:32:16.980
in the morning, in fact, talking about the UK English curricula should focus on inclusive and
00:32:22.200
diverse stories according to a particular author. Is that the author there? Yes.
00:32:27.080
They should stop reading other people's stories. They should read my stories, says woman.
00:32:32.660
Exactly. Yes. I wonder, she should also put down the fork, but this is obviously motivated
00:32:38.480
reasoning. You wouldn't get this sort of argument unless you were a fifth columnist in a foreign
00:32:44.460
country who wants to put your own position first.
00:32:48.140
I'm going to move to China and say, you need to stop reading Chinese stories. You need to
00:32:52.220
start reading more white people's stories, all right?
00:32:54.200
Yeah. Have you ever heard of Shakespeare, China? He is who you should be reading.
00:32:59.180
So this woman is an ex-children's laureate, Mallory Blackman, who said that no student should
00:33:04.160
feel that English is irrelevant because they do not see themselves reflected in the literature.
00:33:08.860
So this is just complete narcissism, erasure. This is the thing that could only happen as
00:33:14.520
a result of demographic replacement coming to the schools because who are these students
00:33:19.360
who don't see themselves reflected in the literature?
00:33:21.680
Well, if an English student who is English is reading English literature, shouldn't they
00:33:30.500
There's also the point that a lot of English literature transcends England, right? It can
00:33:36.360
also be read in the rest of the UK for a start. And, you know, there are people in Scotland,
00:33:42.160
no doubt, that read English authors and vice versa. And also in the rest of Europe, you know,
00:33:47.340
you can ask an Italian, do you know Shakespeare? They'll probably say yes. Have you heard of
00:33:55.940
Yeah. And you don't have to be Italian to appreciate it.
00:33:58.680
It's also just a very stupid person thing to say. Just like, this person isn't exactly
00:34:06.140
like me and therefore I don't enjoy the story. When I watched WALL-E, the Pixar film, I think
00:34:15.700
Okay. I knew someone would be like, actually. But when I watched that, I didn't think,
00:34:22.800
Yes. I'm not a small rubbish collecting robot being in love, so I can't appreciate this
00:34:27.900
whatsoever. No, there are universal themes that can be transmitted through media, but
00:34:33.120
a lot of these people, one, are narcissists, and they legitimately can't appreciate a media
00:34:38.240
unless the people it focuses on look and behave exactly like them. And two, of course, she's
00:34:43.360
going to say this because she wants her own books in schools.
00:34:46.580
Well, fundamentally, all of this ideology amounts to resource extraction from the native population.
00:34:52.340
That's what it is. We have resources that they want, and they will use any means necessary
00:34:58.060
Yeah, and this is all aided by the government. So this woman, Mallory Blackman, was the author
00:35:02.360
of a book series called Noughts and Crosses, which I actually remember learning about when
00:35:06.040
I was younger and in school. And she said all of this in the foreword to a literature in
00:35:11.780
colour campaign report, so that it could try to encourage more children to read for pleasure.
00:35:17.560
I think that's a great idea. More children should read, especially in the area of social
00:35:21.600
media, but of course what they read is just as important. She also said that no child
00:35:26.360
should feel that studying English at schools is relevant because they never see themselves
00:35:29.600
in it. There will always be room for the classics in the UK English literature curricula, but
00:35:34.200
a space and place needs to be made for more inclusive and diverse contemporary stories across
00:35:38.360
all educational boards. So that's bollocks, right?
00:35:41.120
By the way, this even went on growing up in South Devon in a very, very majority, as in
00:35:48.080
as majority as it can possibly get, white British area. And we had to read a book called Gangster
00:36:04.700
Yeah, I was just like, why are we reading this? We were reading Shakespeare a minute
00:36:08.400
ago. Now we're looking at some people who are actually trying to be criminals. Also showing
00:36:14.960
that to teenagers, just like, here you are, here's how to be a criminal. Is that really
00:36:20.640
It's a terrible example to set. But also, what she was saying there, obvious rubbish,
00:36:26.180
because you only have a limited amount of time to cover particular stories over the
00:36:31.860
course of a curriculum, over the course of a school term. So of course, if you want to
00:36:35.820
put one extra thing in, one other thing's going to have to be taken out. So the idea that
00:36:40.660
it's this equal game where you can have as much time, no, it's a zero-sum game. If your
00:36:47.600
book gets in, somebody else's gets taken out. The campaign, this literature in colour, was
00:36:53.200
created by Penguin Books in 2020 in partnership with the Runnymede Trust, of course, aiming
00:36:58.200
to help schools make the teaching and learning of English literature more inclusive for writers
00:37:03.000
of colour. Completely selfish motivation. It was launched, guess when? After the global
00:37:08.620
Black Lives Matter protests, which should have had no effect and nothing to do with Britain.
00:37:13.180
It was nothing to do with us. And they inspired campaigns to diversify the curriculum in schools.
00:37:20.240
So this is all about getting children as young as possible, essentially. Because a lot of
00:37:25.520
these books are not written for the sake of literature, they are written for the sake
00:37:29.140
of propaganda. So they want to get the propaganda into your children's eyes before you can do anything
00:37:36.680
My ideal society would have urban youths reading the poem Beowulf in its original Old English and
00:37:42.720
writing a detailed commentary on it. That's what I want.
00:37:46.140
I think you're being a bit ambitious there, Josh. But I respect what you're aiming for there.
00:37:52.140
In fact, on the subject of the UK English curriculum, Connor wrote an excellent article about it two
00:37:58.800
years ago now. So this is back from June 2022. So things have probably only got worse since then.
00:38:04.100
But he points out here, one of the most hit parts of the curriculum was the conflict section
00:38:14.360
of the poetry side. Because I remember back in my own secondary school during English literature,
00:38:20.080
we learned about Wilfred Owen. His poem's been taken out now.
00:38:26.500
...A Poison Tree by William Blake, The Man He Killed by Thomas Hardy, Punishment by Seamus
00:38:31.660
Haney, Phrase Book by Joe Shapkart, and Anthem for Doomed Youth by Wilfred Owen, which is one of
00:38:41.860
Yes, but you need to make room. It is a zero-sum game when you're working with limited time.
00:38:49.300
Close enough. Replacing them is Lewis Bennett's Colonization in Reverse.
00:38:55.540
Actual propaganda telling young English kids that you deserve to be replaced.
00:39:01.800
That's what that is. Literally, it's called Colonization in Reverse.
00:39:05.740
And as schoolchildren, they'll have the teachers telling them what a good and wonderful thing
00:39:09.140
that is happening, and they'll be using it in the sort of...
00:39:14.500
No, it wasn't French. It was Brazilian or something.
00:39:23.440
They'll be using it as an opportunity to open up the conversation to the sins of imperialism
00:39:28.880
and why it's actually a good thing that little Timmy is being replaced by Mbungu sat next to him.
00:39:35.740
They've also got Ilya Kaminsky's Fantasy of the Fall of America in We Lived Happily During the War,
00:39:43.220
Parable of Police Racial Profile in Caleb Femi's 13,
00:39:47.060
and Francis E.W. Harper's Songs for the People,
00:39:50.900
which is all just race propaganda for race, gay race communists.
00:40:02.680
That's one of the ways that they start to try and get kids to hate themselves
00:40:05.720
for the colour of their skin, as long as you are white.
00:40:08.940
As long as you are one of the many ethnic groups of the white race,
00:40:16.480
Well, interestingly as well, you get lots of things,
00:40:18.840
even from the past, the new ideology being imposed upon old media,
00:40:23.460
like in this, which came out just the other day,
00:40:26.120
that one of the stars of Friends, which was always a rubbish show,
00:40:32.900
Adam Goldberg slamming the show for its insane lack of diversity.
00:40:37.600
Can you believe an all-white friendship group in New York in the 90s?
00:40:46.480
So you get in the schools, you get told that you don't have room for your culture's stories anymore.
00:40:54.440
You have to move aside for the new culture's stories.
00:40:57.640
The old culture's stories, even as recent as 30 years ago,
00:41:00.900
are no longer fit for purpose, because they don't fit into the new woke ideology.
00:41:05.240
And then you start to see articles like this from The Guardian, self-reporting,
00:41:13.660
We need to understand the psychological roots of authoritarianism.
00:41:20.780
Yes, yes, because neuroimaging studies, and we've covered this before,
00:41:26.000
have shown that the amygdala, the tiny almond-shaped brain structure that mediates fear,
00:41:33.540
is larger in people with more right-wing views.
00:41:36.080
Yes, because you're more aware of risks around you and better able to plan for them.
00:41:40.140
Well, that's not necessarily a negative thing either.
00:41:45.920
I mean, being a dumb-dumb-brain left-winger who doesn't see any risk in anything
00:41:52.140
and walks down the wrong street and gets mugged and stabbed and killed.
00:41:56.060
Like has happened to a shocking amount of left-wing journalists.
00:42:00.780
That's not a good thing for them, not being able to perceive risk.
00:42:04.600
And actually, being able to perceive risk is one of the most important aspects of survival in an organism,
00:42:10.740
be it human or not, so it's a silly argument to make.
00:42:15.540
Equally, being more risk-averse makes you more likely to do things like not gamble away your money
00:42:24.100
and be more responsible and find a more stable, sustainable income stream.
00:42:29.840
Which explains why leftists have such excellent lifestyles and judgement.
00:42:35.500
And this article actually is quite interesting because it goes right to the foundation
00:42:40.720
of a lot of the anti-white hatred that gets banded about these days,
00:42:44.560
which is that it refers straight back to a Frankfurt School social psychologist, Eric Fromm.
00:42:51.040
And a lot of this really does come from the Frankfurt School.
00:42:54.420
I know it's a bit of a meme, James Lindsay and people speak about them,
00:42:57.360
but I don't think that they highlight the particularly bad parts of the Frankfurt School ideology
00:43:03.520
that they developed and promoted in conjunction with, you know, the US government,
00:43:12.660
any attempt to understand the attraction which fascism exercises upon great nations
00:43:17.040
compels us to recognise the role of psychological factors,
00:43:21.220
according to Eric Fromm, German-Jewish social psychologist,
00:43:26.880
Such factors are not specifically German or, say, Italian,
00:43:30.580
nor were they manifestations of a unique historical era,
00:43:34.920
Not only can the malignant political, economic, ideological climates,
00:43:39.060
whoever wrote this particular article, who is it?
00:43:41.800
Geber Matt really wanted to make sure you knew they were smart in this first paragraph.
00:43:47.600
Required for the flowering of fascism to develop anywhere,
00:43:50.200
so are its emotional dynamics present in the psyche of most human beings.
00:43:59.220
Evil is just there inherently as a result of your psychology.
00:44:03.140
Not in anybody else, just the white people, though,
00:44:05.480
because you've got a malfunctioning amygdala because it actually works.
00:44:12.360
We each have a Nazi within, according to Auschwitz survivor Edith Eger.
00:44:17.400
That's a strange thing for an Auschwitz survivor to say.
00:44:21.820
It's just like, yes, sometimes I was in the camp, sometimes I was a god.
00:44:30.240
Not to diminish what she must have gone through, but good god.
00:44:33.580
Pointing, in the authors of this article's observation, to a near-universal reality.
00:44:40.060
Many of us harbour the seeds for hatred, rage, fear, narcissistic self-regard, and contempt for others that,
00:44:47.800
in their most venomous and extreme forms, are the dominant emotional currents whose confluence can all feed the destructive torrent that we call fascism.
00:44:57.860
That's right, if you're afraid of things or have any of these negative personal qualities, you too will come up with a specific anti-communist Italian political philosophy.
00:45:07.720
You too will get involved in trade unions, who are the root of your power base.
00:45:12.740
You too might end up reading Giovanni Gentili and wonder, what the hell is he talking about?
00:45:17.800
But also, the silly thing is, they're taking statistical generalisations and suggesting that because the method of data collection suggests a general trend, that this is true of everyone.
00:45:31.800
Actually, no, there are plenty of people that are disposed not to have these things, and people can be born with dispositions that are not like that.
00:45:40.660
You only need to look at animals, like dogs, for example.
00:45:44.280
Dogs, you can argue, don't necessarily have the same level of socialisation as most people.
00:45:53.340
But they have different temperaments and personalities, even though they could be raised in the same environment, like a single litter, for example.
00:46:00.020
They've got similar genes, similar environment, yet there's still some variations.
00:46:04.260
And you can only really attribute that to variations in their genes, because they're not all identical.
00:46:09.240
And that affects their personality, and therefore, this gets lost, that actually, people might not be as similar, funnily enough, as they're making out.
00:46:21.100
But they do point out here that environment does also play a factor, which it absolutely does.
00:46:26.400
And so, what do you need to do if these people, if everybody has the potential to be an evil Adolf Hitler, what do you do?
00:46:33.880
Well, the easiest thing to point out here is that you do whatever we were doing before the 20th century, for thousands and thousands of years of human civilisation.
00:46:44.800
No, no, because according to these people, the results of the 20th century, in terms of Adolf Hitler, was that it was a violent, evil, white nationalist pushback against the universally good, progressive future that we were heading into.
00:47:06.200
Nobody is born with rabid hatred, untrammeled rage, existential fear, or cold contempt permanently embedded in their minds or hearts.
00:47:14.640
What they're saying is, you are born with it, but we could socially engineer it out of you.
00:47:19.540
These fulminant emotions, when chronic, are responses to unbearable suffering endured at a time of utmost vulnerability, helplessness, and unrelieved threat.
00:47:30.140
So, what they're saying here is, you could turn into a Nazi if you are, say, raised to be slightly more socially conservative by your parents, so we need to socially engineer you out of that as early as possible in the schools, and preferably to get you out of your parents' hands as early as possible as well.
00:47:47.660
So, that's why they aim all of this stuff at the kids, and it's interesting that this is the entire stated, overtly and explicitly stated ideological reason for why they do this.
00:47:59.740
If we don't trans your kids, if we don't make them hate themselves, if we don't tell them that all of the history of their ancestors, their race, and their culture are evil, they might turn into Adolf Hitler.
00:48:12.800
Do you really believe that? Do you think that that is true?
00:48:15.600
Do you think that a normal child, just without any intervention by the state or those external factors, is automatically going to turn into a genocidal maniac?
00:48:31.580
American psychologist Michael Milburn has studied the childhood antecedents of right-wing ideological rigidity.
00:48:37.700
His research confirms that the harsher the parenting atmosphere...
00:48:40.500
Research can't confirm things. It suggests or supports a hypothesis.
00:48:45.600
You cannot confirm things with just, you know, one man's research, you moron.
00:48:50.960
With your own sociological background and psychological background, yeah, I can understand how this pisses you off.
00:48:56.880
But they say his research suggests that the harsher the parenting atmosphere people were exposed to as young children,
00:49:04.100
the more prone they are to support authoritarian or aggressive policies such as foreign wars, punitive laws, and the death penalties.
00:49:10.340
So basically what they're saying is, the less boundaries you have in your childhood, the more left-wing you'll be.
00:49:15.220
If we take you away from your parents, then you'll be more left-wing, and that's a good thing.
00:49:20.760
And this actually refers back, echoes back to the work of the Frankfurt School, particularly Adorno with the authoritarian personality,
00:49:29.040
where the studies that he did, the psychological interviews that he conducted, and along with some of the others...
00:49:33.660
We talked about this on the website, didn't we?
00:49:36.920
Basically said that, well, if they had a positive view of their childhood, that means they were more authoritarian.
00:49:44.880
He basically flipped all of the interviews on their head.
00:49:47.800
If they had respect for their parents, if they had a stable childhood, if there were boundaries and authority that was respected,
00:49:54.440
this was a sign of emotional instability and fascism.
00:49:58.380
Whereas if you had the opposite, that was a sign of emotional stability and independence.
00:50:04.800
I had, in my opinion, a very, very good childhood, and I'm very grateful to my parents for being very responsible
00:50:12.340
and, you know, making me very well-behaved as a child.
00:50:20.100
I, you know, I really dislike government overreach.
00:50:23.380
So how can I have this very rigid, structured childhood that I'm also fond of and think was good,
00:50:40.000
You're just the exception that proves the rule.
00:50:43.280
But this is what's forced on children from a very, very young age,
00:50:50.860
Remember, the Frankfurt School and their work with the American government and other governments
00:50:59.760
This has been the prevailing idea of government.
00:51:02.900
The idea of government in the West for decades has been
00:51:06.060
make sure white people hate themselves to prevent Hitler.
00:51:10.220
That's what happened with the German experiments
00:51:13.020
where they were giving children over, fostered children, over to paedophiles
00:51:17.120
in the hopes that the sexually liberated upbringing that would give them
00:51:22.740
because it's all about repression and expression.
00:51:26.520
So what does this lead to in the modern day and age?
00:51:36.740
who said that she's really, really racist deep down
00:51:41.200
was tricked by Matt Walsh in his new film, Am I Racist,
00:51:46.320
into paying reparations to Matt Walsh's producer,
00:51:57.500
and then she's like, oh, I don't have any money on me.
00:51:59.580
And then she gets up and goes to her bag off camera.
00:52:11.260
but we need to be comfortable in being uncomfortable.
00:52:41.340
of how it is implemented in our society seriously
00:52:47.300
So you can make the distinction between the two.
00:52:54.460
which is like the example I'm bringing up here,
00:53:22.180
this was at the point where a lot of the people's community,
00:53:32.660
others as saying this is what Kamala Harris's policies
00:53:46.840
Why should they be there in the very first place?
00:54:04.860
I bet you never thought anyone would ever say something
00:54:18.360
Yeah, obviously, it's terrible what happened to his son.
00:54:32.500
is not that this was a completely avoidable problem,
00:54:56.080
I would have preferred if it was a 60-year-old white man.
00:55:20.540
I don't want to use his son's grave to dance on.
00:55:26.580
because obviously what he and his wife went through
00:55:48.960
So this is the result of the cult of self-hatred
00:56:32.220
and I forgot to include a link to their channel
00:57:47.560
and then the inspector blames the family for this.
