Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - This is THE END of WESTERN CIVILIZATION | Timcast IRL

00:01:05.000 Recently in Ireland, there was a very serious attack on a man, left him scarred, brutally injured, and this triggered riots. 1.00

00:01:14.000 The riots that we saw in Ireland are not unique because we see them all across Europe as there's a wave of migrant crime. 0.97

00:01:19.000 And interestingly enough, we get this I guess you'd call it a B movie, Citizen Vigilante, going viral about a man who's finally fed up with corrupt judges, police officers, and generally just the crime. 1.00

00:01:32.000 So he decides to seek out justice.

00:01:34.000 Now, this film was banned in Germany, or I would say they wouldn't give it a rating.

00:01:39.000 Because it was encouraging violence against migrants.

00:01:41.000 So Elon Musk on X posted it for free.

00:01:45.000 And now there are rumors oh, we got to do a second, you got to do a sequel.

00:01:48.000 It's the big return of Army Hammer.

00:01:50.000 The question is why is there so much interest in this B film showing a guy just kind of snapping and saying, I'm going to get justice for these people?

00:01:59.000 It's because there is a very serious problem we have seen in the United States invigorated people to vote for Donald Trump and support his administration on the issue of immigration.

00:02:08.000 And we see something similar in Europe.

00:02:09.000 And there are a lot of questions about why this has been happening.

00:02:13.000 And of course, there are a lot of theories.

00:02:15.000 Now, we here in America, you guys watch Tim Castarro, we can talk to you about it all day and night because we're from here.

00:02:19.000 But to better understand what's happening in Europe and particularly Ireland, we're going to be talking with a gentleman here who can explain this in greater detail.

00:02:27.000 Plus, I have a million and one questions about how does Ireland come to this point of all places with such a strong, I guess, nationalist identity, considering the history.

00:02:36.000 It's very interesting to see we're at a point where migrants are being brought in. 0.99

00:02:40.000 We're seeing this crime, and it seems the government isn't doing anything to stop it, but rather encourage it. 1.00

00:02:44.000 So, on this special episode of Timcast IRL, I hope you guys are enjoying the holiday weekend and having a good time.

00:02:49.000 We're going to get into the nitty gritty of what's currently happening in Europe and talk about the issues that affect us as well as it pertains to immigration.

00:03:29.000 Some people have even gotten married.

00:03:30.000 No guarantees. 0.98

00:03:31.000 It is true, though.

00:03:32.000 Some people have gotten married.

00:03:33.000 We have a couple different people met up, and that's the most important thing that we can do is build a community together.

00:03:43.000 Thanks for having me, Tim.

00:03:44.000 Beautiful studio.

00:03:46.000 Thank you.

00:03:46.000 I appreciate it.

00:03:47.000 I appreciate it.

00:03:48.000 Well, who are you?

00:03:48.000 What do you do?

00:03:49.000 But I'm an Irish political commentator.

00:03:53.000 Basically, what I do is I take footage out of Europe and I comment on it, clips that might be spread around, and I just show it to a wider public.

00:04:05.000 That's kind of it, you know.

00:04:07.000 I take short clips, I'll stitch it together with a bit of commentary, and I post it on Instagram, Facebook, and X.

00:04:16.000 So you're a journalist?

00:04:18.000 I would, yeah, would I call myself a journalist?

00:04:21.000 Some people would.

00:04:22.000 I don't see myself as a journalist.

00:04:25.000 I think it's because the word journalist is an insult these days, almost.

00:04:28.000 Almost, yeah.

00:04:30.000 We expect journalists to be propagandists for the state.

00:04:32.000 Spot on.

00:04:33.000 Spot on.

00:04:34.000 Yeah.

00:04:34.000 But this is what journalism was always supposed to be.

00:04:37.000 Yeah.

00:04:37.000 You're collecting these videos, this information, you're sharing it with people.

00:04:41.000 Yeah.

00:04:42.000 And, you know, it's maybe you can call it like an editorial for the equivalent, I would say, is like an editorial or a columnist for a larger media organization.

00:04:54.000 But we don't live in that world anymore because all of these corporate news outlets.

00:04:58.000 Just lying about everything all the time.

00:05:01.000 They use ridiculous tricks to reframe what really happened.

00:05:06.000 They don't tell you who the criminal is.

00:05:08.000 I'll tell you this in one instance in Sweden, there was a murder or something where a violent attack.

00:05:14.000 They blurred the skin of the individual and then digitally altered the pixels to be white.

00:05:21.000 Oh my.

00:05:22.000 That's shocking.

00:05:23.000 That's how crazy it's gotten.

00:05:25.000 Should be illegal to do stuff like that.

00:05:28.000 I mean, in the United States, it's the double edged sword of the First Amendment.

00:05:32.000 Yeah.

00:05:32.000 Newspapers are allowed to lie.

00:05:34.000 Yeah.

00:05:34.000 You have a right to say what your opinion is.

00:05:36.000 The government can't regulate that.

00:05:37.000 So, but I don't know about Sweden.

00:05:39.000 It's basically the mainstream news would be a propaganda wing of just, I would say, elite society a lot of the time.

00:05:49.000 You see, in the problem with Ireland, Ireland's worse than most places because we have a regulator called Commission on the Man, and that funds most news outlets in Ireland.

00:06:02.000 So you have local newspapers getting funded by it.

00:06:05.000 You have the big newspapers getting funded by it.

00:06:08.000 This is all state funding.

00:06:10.000 Wow.

00:06:12.000 Interestingly, I mean, everybody knows about the BBC.

00:06:14.000 Yeah.

00:06:15.000 We actually had the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in the United States.

00:06:19.000 Yeah.

00:06:20.000 It's this creepy thing they set up.

00:06:23.000 I'll just give a surface level on this one.

00:06:24.000 It seems like a lot of Western nations have created this state funded propaganda machine.

00:06:32.000 For you guys, it's more overt.

00:06:33.000 Like you have a government funded machine.

00:06:36.000 Is it, let me say this about America?

00:06:39.000 Most people don't know that Congress would, for a long time, give money to something called the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which would then disperse that money to a bunch of smaller news outlets, public radio, NPR, PBS, things like that.

00:06:53.000 People would then believe that these news outlets were funded just by donations.

00:06:58.000 Is that similar in Ireland?

00:07:00.000 100%.

00:07:01.000 Yeah, 100%.

00:07:02.000 This commission, man, it was set up, I think, in 2023.

00:07:05.000 So it's relatively new.

00:07:07.000 And it just has lots of grants.

00:07:09.000 Like, I think it's the.

00:07:12.000 Local democracy grants and all this other stuff, where it just literally spreads money out to these local newspapers and big newspapers.

00:07:20.000 So essentially, what you have is you have media outlets in Ireland that would be almost afraid to go against the government or the state in case those grants are pulled back and not given out.

00:07:35.000 And it's, you know, I would also assume that the people running these newspapers are ideologically aligned with the government's interests.

00:07:35.000 Wow.

00:07:35.000 Yeah.

00:07:43.000 Yeah.

00:07:43.000 That's the other.

00:07:43.000 Yeah.

00:07:44.000 Side of it.

00:07:45.000 Most of these people, I don't know, would you call them the journalist class?

00:07:49.000 They're all, you could say they're all one big group.

00:07:52.000 It's like we have GRIPT who don't take those grants that are outside that.

00:07:57.000 And just last week, this is how bad it is.

00:08:00.000 They asked, they're on the press, they're in the press. 0.98

00:08:04.000 So they asked politicians a question, and the politicians go, Oh, I'm not answering questions from GRIPT.

00:08:11.000 Just outright.

00:08:13.000 What is the GRIPT?

00:08:13.000 GRIPT, yeah.

00:08:14.000 G O R I P T. That's how deep it goes.

00:08:18.000 You have politicians, even though they're asked the question, they just won't answer it.

00:08:22.000 They'll refuse to answer it because it's gripped.

00:08:25.000 Well, so I just pulled up your Instagram, of course.

00:08:28.000 You've got a million followers.

00:08:29.000 You've got videos with 15 million views.

00:08:34.000 You get hundreds of thousands posting about these things.

00:08:36.000 Have you been threatened in any way or is there any.

00:08:39.000 From the government or people or. 0.94

00:08:42.000 You know, I would just say, obviously, left aligned wackos are probably going to threaten you. 0.96

00:08:48.000 Oh, yeah, the whole time.

00:08:49.000 Last week they were.

00:08:52.000 You're probably used to it too.

00:08:53.000 Oh, yeah.

00:08:55.000 Just last week, there were people putting out videos complaining about things I said basically on a video, and all the comments were tagging the police, being like, We need to investigate this guy.

00:09:07.000 Why does he still have an account?

00:09:10.000 Yeah.

00:09:11.000 Has there been any higher level threats or.

00:09:14.000 No.

00:09:15.000 The only time that they might have said something was in our parliament's called the DAWL, and I set up a GoFundMe for the protesters back in April.

00:09:26.000 So, people were protesting the rising fuel prices.

00:09:29.000 So, set up a GoFundMe, raised 150,000 just to feed, yeah, feed protesters around the country and keep this thing going.

00:09:38.000 But the left were angry at that.

00:09:40.000 So, a few people, her name's Ruth Coppinger, was in Parliament in the Dollar Inn saying, We need to get this shut down.

00:09:49.000 Do people know who he is?

00:09:50.000 You know, we need to cancel this.

00:09:53.000 Wow.

00:09:54.000 It is pretty wild that they don't know who you are.

00:09:56.000 Yeah.

00:09:57.000 Right?

00:09:58.000 I mean, you're a massive platform.

00:10:00.000 I imagine you've got other platforms too.

00:10:01.000 You're getting a ton of views on this stuff.

00:10:06.000 I go on Instagram and I see your posts all the time.

00:10:09.000 And obviously, I watch them.

00:10:11.000 And so then the algorithm says, show him more of this or whatever.

00:10:13.000 But it's because it's interesting.

00:10:14.000 And I think you've got a quick wit and you make funny points, but you also highlight a real problem.

00:10:20.000 So it's surprising to me that they aren't aware of who you are with a platform this big.

00:10:26.000 They're definitely aware, anyways, because.

00:10:29.000 Even Simon Harris, the Taoiseach, I would do a video.

00:10:32.000 So, this is, they blocked me on some platforms, like these people, and I would have never interacted with them.

00:10:38.000 But what happens is, I do a video.

00:10:41.000 Simon Harris, there was a case where a child had scoliosis.

00:10:46.000 His name was Harvey, and he went without treatment for a long time.

00:10:51.000 And our deputy prime minister basically said, Oh, you know, we'll treat him, all that.

00:10:57.000 But he didn't.

00:10:58.000 He ignored the parents.

00:11:00.000 Harvey ended up dying.

00:11:01.000 Did a video on it.

00:11:02.000 And what would happen then is that video, everyone would grab the link and spam it at your man who was involved.

00:11:12.000 And they'll end up blocking me because, you know.

00:11:15.000 Oh, interesting.

00:11:16.000 Yeah.

00:11:16.000 So, a few.

00:11:17.000 So, I have so many questions about Ireland.

00:11:19.000 I think we should, we'll start from the beginning.

00:11:21.000 I mean, because we're already, we're diving into.

00:11:24.000 Clearly, right now, I think most people in the United States are aware of this like migrant issue because you had this man brutally, brutally attacked.

00:11:30.000 Beheaded.

00:11:30.000 Yeah.

00:11:31.000 Yeah.

00:11:32.000 He was beheaded.

00:11:33.000 Oh, nearly.

00:11:34.000 His eyes are.

00:11:34.000 Right.

00:11:34.000 I mean, this is horrifying.

00:11:36.000 And this is the interesting thing about this: this is Belfast.

00:11:38.000 This is Northern Ireland.

00:11:39.000 Yeah.

00:11:40.000 Where are you from?

00:11:42.000 Are you from?

00:11:42.000 Galway, the West.

00:11:44.000 So is that Ireland, Ireland, not Northern Ireland?

00:11:46.000 Ireland, Ireland.

00:11:47.000 I think.

00:11:48.000 It's all Ireland, Ireland.

00:11:49.000 Exactly.

00:11:52.000 But for Americans, I don't think they know where Belfast is.

00:11:55.000 I don't think.

00:11:56.000 But this is what was really interesting to me.

00:11:58.000 I went to Belfast maybe like seven years ago.

00:12:01.000 And.

00:12:03.000 What does that do?

00:12:03.000 The big bonfires?

00:12:05.000 What is that?

00:12:05.000 Yes.

00:12:06.000 Is it like Bonfire Night or something?

00:12:07.000 What do they call that?

00:12:07.000 Yeah, that's the, you could say it's the Loyalists, it's the Union.

00:12:10.000 Yes, they kind of just set a big bonfire.

00:12:15.000 It's to set, like they do it as.

00:12:17.000 Kind of insane.

00:12:18.000 Yeah.

00:12:19.000 Like a 300 foot tall of wood pallets and they burned it.

00:12:23.000 It's so hot, the ground, like the asphalt boils.

00:12:26.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:12:27.000 I think it's a show of force and strength, you know, for them.

00:12:31.000 But that's what's interesting is.

00:12:33.000 I went there and a friend of mine was showing me around.

00:12:36.000 He showed me the Peace Wall, which is what was like separated the Protestants and the Catholics or something like this.

00:12:40.000 And one side was pro Palestine, one side's pro Israel.

00:12:44.000 And so he made a funny point to me.

00:12:46.000 He said, it's interesting how, with the EU, basically you can freely move between Northern and Ireland and Northern Ireland without issue, even though it's only something like 30 years ago, not even, where you still had violence. 0.98

00:13:02.000 So I'm seeing all this migrant stuff, and I'm like, how did we get to the point where a nation that was fighting for unity and for sovereignty is now, and I believe it's the party and the faction that were fighting for Irish identity are now the ones inviting in the non Irish to take. 0.98

00:13:19.000 The Irish land. 1.00

00:13:20.000 Yeah, yes.

00:13:21.000 What happened?

00:13:22.000 Essentially, yeah.

00:13:23.000 Sinn Féin, it would be Sinn Féin who are gone completely woke, but they've been woke for a lot of people.

00:13:30.000 If you go to protests now in Ireland, a lot of them will be chanting, Sinn Féin are traitors, because Sinn Féin were the nationalist party, you know, and they were back in the early 1900s, they would have been kind of to the side.

00:13:45.000 They weren't involved in the rising, the 1916 rising, but they were there and they took it.

00:13:50.000 They took the energy afterwards and they went with it.

00:13:57.000 So they were nationalists back then, but after, during, I suppose, the late 1960s when the troubles in the North happened, they started becoming woke.

00:14:09.000 You know, they looked at the civil rights movement in America and they started using that same kind of talking points and moral philosophy and brought it into their struggle in the North.

00:14:20.000 And that's where it kind of comes from.

00:14:22.000 And then, like, you go back to 2004, we had a birthright citizenship referendum.

00:14:29.000 So we had birthright citizenship, and the government what happened?

00:14:33.000 A lot of foreign people were coming in and having children.

00:14:36.000 So the government decided, let's put it to a vote. 0.96

00:14:38.000 Do people want this or don't they want it?

00:14:40.000 Oh, wow.

00:14:41.000 80% voted they don't want it.

00:14:43.000 But even back then, Sinn Fein, which is the nationalist party, voted they wanted to keep it.

00:14:52.000 And you listen to their talks back then, they were talking about anti racism.

00:14:56.000 They were talking about discrimination.

00:14:57.000 This is before it was even a thing, I would consider it.

00:15:01.000 They were really left wing.

00:15:05.000 And people still tie them to a nationalist movement, but it's far from it.

00:15:10.000 Yeah, it's the opposite.

00:15:11.000 Yeah, it's Brits out, everyone else in.

00:15:13.000 It's like, is that even.

00:15:15.000 Yeah.

00:15:16.000 It's strange.

00:15:17.000 Were they economically leftist, like communist, Marxist, socialist?

00:15:22.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:15:23.000 Always have been?

00:15:24.000 Always have been, yeah.

00:15:26.000 They've all kind of.

00:15:28.000 I don't know.

00:15:29.000 They've all, the main parties now all align economically, basically.

00:15:36.000 They're just a bit ideologically.

00:15:39.000 Are they even ideologically different?

00:15:41.000 I wouldn't even, thinking about it, I wouldn't say so.

00:15:46.000 They're very similar in their beliefs.

00:15:50.000 They're both left socially and they're both kind of center left economically.

00:15:57.000 You know what's really fascinating about your country right now is that.

00:16:01.000 There's still some, I guess, feigning of Irish nationalism.

00:16:07.000 Yeah.

00:16:07.000 That's basically what we're talking about.

00:16:07.000 Right?

00:16:09.000 When I went there in Northern Ireland, there was graffiti in Gaelic, I think. 0.99

00:16:13.000 That would have been.

00:16:14.000 Is that what it's called?

00:16:14.000 I'm not.

00:16:16.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:16:17.000 And I asked my friend, like, I was like, I understand this is probably like Irish language.

00:16:24.000 And he was explaining, like, yeah, it's basically someone graffitied something to the effect of the British out, Ireland for the Irish, something like that.

00:16:33.000 And I was just thinking, it's very interesting.

00:16:36.000 How you can have people that are going to graffiti that, but at the same time, they're going to be like, oh, yeah, but we can bring Somalians, we can bring in, you know, whichever migrants from whatever, and then this country is not actually for the Irish people.

00:16:49.000 It's so paradoxical.

00:16:50.000 It makes no sense to me.

00:16:51.000 Yeah.

00:16:52.000 It's so wrong because their whole, like Sinn Fein, I suppose, for the longest time, have all been about a united Ireland.

00:17:01.000 So get the six counties to the north back.

00:17:04.000 But people's opinion on immigration is largely they want it limited.

00:17:08.000 People aren't.

00:17:10.000 There's a minority that are in favour of the amount of immigration that are coming in.

00:17:16.000 So here you have Sinn Féin that are standing there saying, you know, there's no problem, there's no issue with immigration, let them all come in, which goes against the popular opinion, which will defy people about, you know, having a United Ireland.

00:17:33.000 If this is Sinn Féin's opinion, why do you want to support Sinn Féin, you know?

00:17:39.000 Plus, it also makes no sense that why do you want them out?

00:17:43.000 You know, if you're saying everybody else in and you want a united Ireland, why do you want a united Ireland?

00:17:51.000 Is it because you want Ireland for Irish people?

00:17:54.000 Yeah.

00:17:54.000 Or what's the other reason?

00:17:56.000 How do you describe the difference between the people like the Northern Irish and the Irish?

00:18:00.000 Like, how would, you know.

00:18:02.000 Yeah, I suppose it goes back to the plantations in the 1600s where you had Scottish Presbyterians brought in by the English, about 100,000 of them.

00:18:18.000 were planted in the north.

00:18:21.000 And from that point on, you had a large Protestant community in the north.

00:18:28.000 And over time, they became very, they're like, they're very in favour of having a British Ireland back in, like a, what happened is we used to have the Kingdom of Ireland, which was a part of the British Empire.

00:18:45.000 Then it joined a union in 1801.

00:18:49.000 And from that, then they were happy, the Presbyterians up in the north.

00:18:54.000 Then we got our independence.

00:18:57.000 They felt attacked.

00:18:58.000 They knew that sooner or later we're looking for their 32 counties back.

00:19:03.000 And then, you know, they feel threatened.

00:19:06.000 More aligned with staying part of the United Kingdom and.

00:19:08.000 Big time, yeah, yeah.

00:19:10.000 So there was a video I saw where, with these riots going on, with this brutal attack on this man, someone said, I can't remember how they described it.

00:19:18.000 It was just like, you know, the Irish and the Northern Irish or whatever, they're like cheering for each other. 0.73

00:19:23.000 And it's weird to see because they were like, with these big protests, there are people outside of Northern Ireland in Ireland that are waving Irish flags and cheering for the Irish and Northern Ireland now because they all feel attacked in both places by this migrant influx. 0.97

00:19:36.000 And I'm sitting here thinking, like, you know, you have the troubles. 1.00

00:19:40.000 Did the government say, I know how to end this?

00:19:42.000 Let's give them a unified enemy and bring in a bunch of people that everybody will hate.

00:19:47.000 Now they're cheering for each other.

00:19:49.000 Yeah, imagine.

00:19:50.000 Yeah, it would be, you know, a common enemy.

00:19:53.000 It does make sense. 0.96

00:19:55.000 No, like, it's interesting because, like, Sinn Fein, it doesn't, it boggles my mind because on one stage, you have 400 years later, you have still an ethnic divide in the land because 100,000 migrants were planted.

00:20:15.000 Wow.

00:20:15.000 And that speaks to a bigger issue of, you know, can.

00:20:20.000 A different ethnic people get on and can they integrate? 0.92

00:20:25.000 This is, this is, yeah, this is it right here.

00:20:29.000 Yeah.

00:20:29.000 You have everybody knows about the Troubles.

00:20:32.000 Yeah.

00:20:33.000 There's music about it.

00:20:34.000 Yeah.

00:20:35.000 There's, I mean, the song Zombie by Cranberries is billions of views, platinum, multi times over.

00:20:42.000 Even children who weren't alive in the 90s, who were Gen Z born in 2000, they know the words.

00:20:49.000 And it's so ingrained, this song is that they don't even know what the words are about.

00:20:54.000 They just know that you hear the song, it's on all the time.

00:20:57.000 And the core of it is 100,000 people were brought in of a different culture.

00:21:03.000 Spot on.

00:21:04.000 And it resulted in how many years of convo?

00:21:08.000 100?

00:21:10.000 It was in the 1600s.

00:21:12.000 Hundreds of years of violence.

00:21:14.000 Hundreds of years, yeah.

00:21:15.000 It largely stopped in the 90s with the Good Friday Agreement.

00:21:18.000 Right.

00:21:19.000 That was 1998, right?

00:21:20.000 1998, yeah.

00:21:22.000 When I went to Belfast, and you'll have to correct me because I only had a cursory tour of this.

00:21:28.000 Someone showed me like a memorial for some guys, and there's like a painting or something, like a mural on a wall.

00:21:35.000 And he's explained to me the people of Northern Ireland celebrate these men who went to Ireland and massacred civilians.

00:21:43.000 Something that affects.

00:21:44.000 And it was like during the Troubles, they went in and there was an attack and they killed civilians, they got killed, and it was considered an attack against the oppressors or something like that.

00:21:55.000 And then it gets to this day, they're still celebrating this.

00:21:58.000 The craziest thing about it is to an American, most of them don't even understand the difference between Northern Ireland and Ireland.

00:22:06.000 But when you look, are you familiar with Dearborn, Michigan?

00:22:09.000 I've heard of this.

00:22:10.000 Don't know.

00:22:11.000 So, Michigan, of course, you know, is a state. 1.00

00:22:14.000 There's a massive Muslim enclave.

00:22:17.000 When you go there, a lot of people don't speak English.

00:22:19.000 The stores are all in Arabic.

00:22:22.000 And you'll get along mostly fine.

00:22:25.000 You'll show up there, but it very, very much is a serious enclave of, I don't even know the population size, but it's very large.

00:22:32.000 There's been issues of female circumcision.

00:22:35.000 It's illegal. 0.95

00:22:36.000 And there's Sharia patrols. 0.98

00:22:39.000 So they're de facto non police, but they argue we're only enforcing against our community as we all agree, but we know what this turns into. 0.99

00:22:49.000 You tell the story of a.

00:22:51.000 You know, you bring in 100,000 migrants hundreds of years ago.

00:22:55.000 With Donald Trump winning with the immigration enforcement, I can only imagine there's a strong possibility, not just with something like Dearborn, but the Somali community in Minnesota, that if you get a MAGA movement that is ascendant, just like you were saying, they felt sooner or later was going to be them, that they're going to be targeted when Iran got its independence.

00:23:17.000 If you get a massive right wing populist movement and then the right just begins dominating all these elections, These groups are going to start saying, okay, it's time to use force to defend ourselves or something to affect.

00:23:28.000 I'll give you an example.

00:23:30.000 Zorhan Mamdani, I'm sure you've heard of him. 0.59

00:23:33.000 We just had a ruling at our Supreme Court that temporary protected status is like we can deport these people now.

00:23:41.000 So Haiti was granted this protected status in 2010 because of the earthquake. 0.96

00:23:46.000 16 years later, why do we still give it to them? 0.99

00:23:48.000 Then we have Syrian refugees because of the civil war.

00:23:52.000 That's 2012. 0.98

00:23:53.000 That's over.

00:23:54.000 And so our Supreme Court said, Trump can deport him if he wants.

00:23:57.000 It's his purview.

00:23:58.000 So the mayor of New York said effectively, We are going to resist the federal government to protect these people in our home.

00:24:06.000 But we're getting this all over the country.

00:24:09.000 And maybe it's just in the short term, we don't have to worry about it.

00:24:14.000 But when we look to how crazy it got for you guys, I'm worried that, look, the people up here, they have lots of kids. 0.61

00:24:25.000 And what happens is, if you bring in, if you get to that tipping point where the majority, the plurality of voters are saying more migrants, the dam has broken. 0.99

00:24:38.000 Because now every year they're going to bring in more people who agree with them and you will lose voting power every year. 0.97

00:24:44.000 You can never get back. 1.00

00:24:45.000 10, 20 years later, it's just 80, 90% migrant saying we are a different nation from you. 1.00

00:24:52.000 You lose your country. 0.97

00:24:53.000 It's a problem with democracy.

00:24:55.000 You know, it is.

00:24:56.000 It's a public vote.

00:24:59.000 And if you change the demographics, like if you have a place that is planted with Muslims or Syrians, whichever, they're going to vote for the Syrian who runs. 0.56

00:25:15.000 And like that, it speaks to something greater, but everyone's afraid to address it.

00:25:21.000 You know, no one's addressing, right, what happens when demographics change?

00:25:25.000 Yeah.

00:25:26.000 Like, is it in Ireland's best interest to bring in.

00:25:30.000 People, hundreds of thousands of people from elsewhere.

00:25:35.000 Like Northern Ireland, the Ulster Presbyterians, they're not so different from our own, you know?

00:25:42.000 Yet, look at the consequence.

00:25:44.000 Right.

00:25:46.000 It's actually kind of scary.

00:25:48.000 Yeah.

00:25:48.000 How, if, like, again, to an American, there's no functional difference.

00:25:53.000 Yeah. 0.69

00:25:54.000 And now you tell them that and they're, you know, say that to them, they'll be like.

00:26:00.000 But to us, like, if, uh, You know, if someone from Belfast and someone from Dublin were both here at the same time, they'd be like, Ireland.

00:26:06.000 Americans wouldn't really know. 0.93

00:26:08.000 Now, if you brought in a Somali who was born in Belfast and a guy from Dublin, they're going to be like, no. 1.00

00:26:15.000 Of course. 1.00

00:26:16.000 Something different here.

00:26:17.000 Yeah.

00:26:17.000 These are different people.

00:26:18.000 Yeah.

00:26:19.000 And even the migrants who come in here and they say they integrate and they assimilate.

00:26:24.000 There was one Somali girl and she won the Rose of Dublin.

00:26:30.000 So we have a competition.

00:26:32.000 It's like a beauty kind of contest mixed with how nice you are.

00:26:36.000 It's like the Rose of Tralee.

00:26:38.000 It's an odd one. 1.00

00:26:41.000 A Somali girl one? 1.00

00:26:42.000 A Somali girl one up in Dublin.

00:26:45.000 And everyone, like the media, all that stuff, you know, she's Irish.

00:26:49.000 That's the way it's done.

00:26:52.000 She was on TikTok and she ran a marathon.

00:26:56.000 And she said she was celebrating.

00:26:58.000 She said she's seen her Somali sisters smiling and celebrating her.

00:27:04.000 And she went over.

00:27:05.000 She never lived in Somalia.

00:27:09.000 Yet she feels connected.

00:27:10.000 People pretend as if there isn't a connection beyond, you know, citizenship or where you're born.

00:27:18.000 Why does she feel connected to her Somali sisters more so than her maybe Irish community?

00:27:25.000 It's because she's Somali. 1.00

00:27:27.000 Isn't it just so silly in this modern era? 1.00

00:27:31.000 You look at the world, every country, every single one outside of Europe is an ethnostate. 1.00

00:27:37.000 Japan is. 0.72

00:27:39.000 Japan's an interesting story right now.

00:27:41.000 I don't, I don't, have you read anything about what's going on with Japan and migration?

00:27:44.000 And not so much.

00:27:45.000 I know she got in with a mandate that she'd stop it, but I don't know if she's following through with it.

00:27:52.000 Is she?

00:27:53.000 So it's interesting, but the population collapse is a big reason why countries are starting to freak out.

00:27:59.000 And so Japan has a bunch of cities that are becoming abandoned, there's not enough young people.

00:28:04.000 Yeah.

00:28:05.000 And so what happens is the older generation, they got no problem hanging out.

00:28:07.000 Yeah.

00:28:07.000 You know, hey, they all like Star Trek The Next Generation.

00:28:09.000 They remember 1989.

00:28:10.000 I love that show, right?

00:28:11.000 Yeah. 0.94

00:28:12.000 But if you were born in 2000, And everyone around you is old. 0.91

00:28:16.000 You've got no one to talk to. 0.73

00:28:17.000 So they're moving to Tokyo, which is a mass, Tokyo's insanely big.

00:28:21.000 So, the government now is interesting.

00:28:22.000 Is a lot of these houses, like five to ten bedroom houses, sell for like, you know, $50,000 to $60,000 US, which would be a million dollars to an American.

00:28:34.000 They're trying to entice foreigners to start buying these things up. 0.99

00:28:38.000 The interesting point about it, and we can get into that in a second, but the point in this regard is Japan's an ethnostate, and the conflict right now is there are a lot of traditional Japanese saying, we do not want even white people, gaijin, coming into our country. 0.97

00:28:53.000 You look at China. 0.72

00:28:55.000 It's, I mean, if you're a foreigner, it's all very difficult.

00:28:57.000 Yeah.

00:28:58.000 And then you look at Europe and you look at the United States and they're like, we're not a real country.

00:29:03.000 Like, what do they say?

00:29:04.000 Anybody could be Irish. 1.00

00:29:05.000 Oh, it's terrible. 0.98

00:29:08.000 How disrespectful, too.

00:29:09.000 And these are the people who say they love the country and they'd sooner call.

00:29:14.000 So they have a shtick, like the left in Ireland have a stick with Irish Americans with Irish ancestry.

00:29:22.000 And you see it like I was on the plane over here and I was looking at an American.

00:29:27.000 Red hair, look like someone you'd see, you know, your cousin or someone you'd see in Ireland, probably ethnically very linked to Ireland.

00:29:38.000 And they would sooner deny them their heritage and say they're not Irish. 0.80

00:29:43.000 And then say the Somali who came in five years ago got citizenship, they're as Irish as the next person.

00:29:52.000 I think I might have remembered the Rose of Ireland story.

00:29:57.000 Rose Tree, yeah.

00:29:58.000 Something like that. 0.79

00:29:59.000 I think I may have seen that where it's like some commentary was like, this woman's not Irish.

00:30:03.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:03.000 And it's not meant to be mean to the person.

00:30:06.000 Of course not, no.

00:30:06.000 But could you imagine if you went to Japan and this is the most Japanese man we've ever seen?

00:30:11.000 Just like a tall white guy with blue eyes. 1.00

00:30:13.000 Yeah, it's so different. 0.99

00:30:15.000 And it would be so disrespectful for the Japanese if I walked around and said, I'm Japanese. 1.00

00:30:20.000 They'd be like, no, you're not. 1.00

00:30:22.000 You never will be.

00:30:23.000 I would be like, no, I'm as Japanese as you.

00:30:25.000 You know what I mean?

00:30:27.000 You know what's really funny?

00:30:30.000 If you.

00:30:31.000 In, like, the woke era of the United States, if this ideology is so nonsensical and cult like, they will say, Oh, this young Somali girl is Irish.

00:30:44.000 In the United States, so actually, let me ask you this this young woman, and I'm not trying to be mean to her or anything, but she speaks English with an Irish accent, I would imagine.

00:30:55.000 If you came to the United States and went on TV and took a record and said, I am a Chinese, they'd ban you. 0.88

00:31:01.000 How dare you!

00:31:02.000 100%.

00:31:03.000 Yeah.

00:31:03.000 It's so weird.

00:31:04.000 It is weird. 1.00

00:31:05.000 And then you have a Somali girl.

00:31:06.000 I mean, what if you were like, no, I'm from Beijing. 1.00

00:31:09.000 I tuck a wreck at this.

00:31:11.000 That's just me.

00:31:14.000 They wouldn't care if it was true.

00:31:16.000 They'd just say, no, it's offensive to people, so you can't.

00:31:17.000 Yeah.

00:31:18.000 And it'd be so strange to see.

00:31:19.000 You'd be like, what am I looking at?

00:31:22.000 But the way Europe and the West is gone, they're trying to destroy your national identity and a people.

00:31:31.000 You know, the Irish as a people, as a nation. 0.74

00:31:34.000 Instead, they're trying to make it, you know, the state has control over who it represents rather than the people having control over who the state represents. 0.76

00:31:44.000 You guys got a rough go of it.

00:31:45.000 I mean, how many hundreds of years have they been trying to destroy the Irish identity for?

00:31:49.000 Yeah, yeah. 0.67

00:31:51.000 Normans came in the 12th century, so you're talking 800 years.

00:31:57.000 You know what I will say, though, is if there's one thing you've got behind you, is that you've survived 800 years.

00:32:02.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:32:03.000 But the demographic change happening now is unlike.

00:32:08.000 Like you're talking about the plantations of Ulster happen over, you know, decades, and that's 100,000.

00:32:17.000 We've had it's like 600,000 people come in the last since 2020.

00:32:17.000 Yeah.

00:32:23.000 You know, I wonder about this.

00:32:24.000 We saw the King Charles went to Canada because most people don't know this.

00:32:29.000 He's the King of Canada.

00:32:31.000 And I think, technically, I think even though Commonwealth is the Commonwealth countries all considered they're all, I think, legally distinct sovereign or whatever.

00:32:38.000 I believe he's the King of like Australia and New Zealand and all the same or whatever.

00:32:42.000 And then he did a land acknowledgement.

00:32:44.000 Did you see this?

00:32:45.000 No.

00:32:46.000 Yeah, he King Charles goes to Canada.

00:32:48.000 And he's addressing parliament.

00:32:49.000 He's like, before we begin, I just want to say we are on the unceded territory of the Anashibeg people, which is like the weird thing for a king to say.

00:32:59.000 Yeah. 0.97

00:33:00.000 Like, we recognize that this land is an illegal occupation of the. 0.84

00:33:05.000 Ridiculous, isn't it? 0.98

00:33:07.000 So, one of the things that has come up from that is the king is viewed as woke and pro Islam. 0.98

00:33:14.000 And I can't help but wonder if.

00:33:18.000 I hear from people all the time, they say, oh, he has no power, he has no authority, it's a He's a figurehead.

00:33:22.000 And I'm like, I don't believe that.

00:33:24.000 No.

00:33:25.000 I don't believe that a royal family with dedicated and loyal followers and resources simply just gives up their ambitions.

00:33:35.000 And I'm not saying that they control the world or the most powerful in the world, but they're a powerful family with political ambitions.

00:33:41.000 And also, you know, they say he has no power, but the king could dissolve parliament if he wanted to.

00:33:45.000 And they're like, oh, but it'll be a political disaster.

00:33:47.000 And I'm like, yes, but we're dealing with a political disaster in Europe, in the UK.

00:33:52.000 So part of me wonders if.

00:33:54.000 All of this is, you know, the British have been trying to effectively.

00:34:00.000 I don't know.

00:34:00.000 I want to be careful how I describe it, but they don't like the Irish.

00:34:03.000 You know what I mean? 1.00

00:34:04.000 Yeah.

00:34:05.000 Is this just another politically aligned, this is how we get rid of them for once and for all?

00:34:10.000 Yeah.

00:34:10.000 No, I wouldn't say so.

00:34:11.000 Like, I actually think England and Ireland now have a great relationship.

00:34:17.000 I know people have past grievances and there's a lot of, you know, anger there, but.

00:34:26.000 If we actually break it down, England and Ireland have been last, you know, since I suppose the 50s, they've been all right to each other.

00:34:37.000 There's nothing except, I suppose, with the North. 0.94

00:34:40.000 But in terms of a lot of Irish went to London and they made a lot of money in London and they brought it home. 0.69

00:34:48.000 I know a lot of Irish people that would have had parents or grandparents that would have worked in England and then came home later.

00:34:56.000 So, there's a relationship there.

00:35:00.000 Plus, we have, like, I can travel to England, no problem.

00:35:03.000 An English person can come into Ireland.

00:35:05.000 They don't need a visa.

00:35:08.000 They don't need any of that stuff.

00:35:09.000 They can just start working if they want to.

00:35:11.000 Wow, really?

00:35:12.000 So, someone from London can come to Dublin and they need a job?

00:35:12.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:35:15.000 Yeah, no problem.

00:35:16.000 Wow.

00:35:17.000 That's like the European Union stuff, though, isn't it?

00:35:18.000 Like Schengen Zone?

00:35:21.000 It's the Anglo Irish Agreement.

00:35:23.000 It's called, I think it was in the 80s, it was signed.

00:35:23.000 Oh, okay.

00:35:28.000 And it just means like, even they can come here and they can get a hospital appointment.

00:35:32.000 All that stuff.

00:35:32.000 Okay.

00:35:33.000 Pretty cool.

00:35:33.000 Yes.

00:35:33.000 Yeah.

00:35:34.000 Yeah.

00:35:34.000 So I have a funny story.

00:35:36.000 My whole life, you know, so I'm a quarter Asian.

00:35:40.000 I'm 20% Korean, 5% Japanese.

00:35:42.000 My mom is half.

00:35:44.000 And she said, you know, my dad is German Irish.

00:35:46.000 And she said, I'm German Irish and Korean because my mom's dad was German Irish.

00:35:51.000 And so she's like, so you're German Irish and Korean.

00:35:53.000 Yeah.

00:35:54.000 And then a few years ago, she got a DNA test from like the 23andMe or whatever.

00:35:57.000 Yeah.

00:35:58.000 And then she was like, Here, check it out.

00:35:59.000 You're actually Japanese too.

00:36:01.000 Like, we always didn't know that my mom had some Japanese in her, which also has horrifying implications if people know the history of the region.

00:36:08.000 But so, uh, we weren't friends, yeah.

00:36:12.000 And so, uh, I was like, Oh, look at that.

00:36:14.000 You know, my mom's actually 10% Japanese.

00:36:17.000 And then she shows me the map.

00:36:19.000 If you ever do the DNA test, they show you the bubbles of where you are.

00:36:22.000 And she goes, See, look, you've got the Asian and then you've got the Irish.

00:36:25.000 And she points to London.

00:36:27.000 The circle is over England.

00:36:29.000 And I said, Mom, that's England.

00:36:29.000 All right.

00:36:31.000 And she goes, Well, yeah, Ireland, you know, England.

00:36:33.000 And I was like, No, Mom.

00:36:35.000 And she's like, Well, we're, look, Irish.

00:36:37.000 And I said, Mom, that's not Ireland.

00:36:38.000 That's, that's, that's, that's England.

00:36:40.000 That's different.

00:36:40.000 Yeah.

00:36:41.000 And she's like, No, no, because Ireland is in England.

00:36:45.000 And I was like, It's not the same thing.

00:36:45.000 The same thing.

00:36:46.000 And don't tell them that.

00:36:47.000 It's like, True.

00:36:48.000 So that's how I found out I was actually part British too.

00:36:50.000 Yeah.

00:36:51.000 But I think that, you know, I imagine maybe at this point, the way you describe it, everyone gets along.

00:36:57.000 Everyone gets along.

00:36:58.000 It's still odd.

00:36:59.000 People call Ireland British, which is, you know, so strange.

00:37:02.000 What's exactly my mom thought?

00:37:03.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:37:04.000 Just like, where's that coming from?

00:37:06.000 Well, it's very different.

00:37:07.000 And it is different.

00:37:09.000 Yeah, we don't like it either because we are our own people.

00:37:12.000 We are our own nation.

00:37:16.000 But yeah, it's just insane.

00:37:17.000 Like, it's insane what's happening in Europe.

00:37:20.000 America is much.

00:37:22.000 The same.

00:37:22.000 You see a lot of demographic change coming to America too, and it just seems to be Western countries facing it.

00:37:29.000 I'm curious because we've obviously entertained a lot of the conspiracy theories.

00:37:34.000 We could look at every nation not having kids.

00:37:38.000 In Africa, they have lots of kids.

00:37:39.000 They used to have more, they still have a lot.

00:37:40.000 I think it was, if you go back 30 years, they're like 12 kids per family.

00:37:44.000 Now it's like five, which is still massive.

00:37:47.000 But you look at almost every other nation, even Islamic nations, despite the fact they do have a high birth rate. 0.97

00:37:53.000 It's also very low. 0.97

00:37:55.000 Japan's gone. 1.00

00:37:56.000 Their birth rate is like 0.8.

00:37:57.000 Korea, I think, is like 0.3. 0.98

00:38:00.000 South Korea is insane. 0.96

00:38:02.000 Even China.

00:38:03.000 And so, with this low birth rate being so widespread, some people just believe it's a natural tendency due to technology and culture that you don't need to have families anymore.

00:38:14.000 And so people don't.

00:38:15.000 But the other conspiracy is our governments, our elites in the media have intentionally sowed this anti natalist.

00:38:23.000 Ideology in people, don't have kids, you don't have kids, don't have sex, all those things, which has resulted in these crises for which they now can't.

00:38:30.000 There's a couple ways to look at it.

00:38:32.000 One is the conspiracy theory is that the Malthusians fearing overpopulation in the 70s, so did this propaganda telling everyone don't have kids, which created this long term devastating impact, which is we can't maintain our economic systems without new people.

00:38:48.000 So one theory is that they're now scrambling to bring in new workers and they don't care where they come from. 0.76

00:38:53.000 However, the other side of the conspiracy is that They intentionally wanted to depopulate so they could intentionally bring in mass migration and homogenize all these nations.

00:39:02.000 Do you see any merit to those?

00:39:05.000 Because I would argue that I see probability in them, but I don't know for sure.

00:39:09.000 I always think it's a combination of a lot of things coming together.

00:39:09.000 Yeah.

00:39:14.000 Everyone always tries to nail it down to one thing, but it is a part of this broader liberal progressive movement.

00:39:22.000 I know with Ireland, Ireland's a good example of how it.

00:39:27.000 Uh, develops before the 90s, we were relatively poor.

00:39:34.000 The Catholic Church had a lot of say in Ireland, they had a tight grip around Ireland.

00:39:41.000 And in the 50s, we practiced like a protectionist kind of society where our Prime Minister, our Taoiseach, wanted Ireland to be kept Ireland, and it was largely farms that made up the workforce.

00:40:01.000 And Ireland started stagnation and started, it was kind of backwards. 0.74

00:40:06.000 The Catholic Church had a lot of power again.

00:40:09.000 Fast forward to the 90s, a lot of Irish in that time emigrated.

00:40:14.000 It's like 400,000 in the 50s left, and we had a population of 3 million, like a staggering amount of people left because there was nothing happening in Ireland.

00:40:24.000 It was piss poor.

00:40:26.000 Grandfather always said, you know, what good old days.

00:40:29.000 There was no such thing as the good old days.

00:40:31.000 Ireland was a very poor country, especially rural Ireland.

00:40:36.000 Then in the 90s, what happens is there's a boom.

00:40:41.000 So the Celtic Tiger starts. 0.94

00:40:43.000 The Catholic Church. 0.91

00:40:45.000 What is that?

00:40:46.000 Celtic Tiger was just a boom of industry.

00:40:50.000 We had low corporation tax and we opened up to free trade.

00:40:55.000 So a lot of American multinationals, and this was like the IT boom as well, came into Dublin.

00:41:01.000 They're still there today.

00:41:03.000 Most American multinationals have their headquarters in Dublin, which inflates our GDP by a huge amount.

00:41:11.000 It brings a.

00:41:12.000 Brings us a lot of money. 0.80

00:41:14.000 So you had a Celtic tiger boom, which started, Ireland started catching up on the world stage. 0.69

00:41:22.000 The Catholic Church came out with their, you know, their scandals.

00:41:28.000 Galway Bishop was found to have fathered a child.

00:41:30.000 A few more things came out.

00:41:32.000 And then it was the, you know, the abuse of children came out.

00:41:38.000 And people were shocked.

00:41:40.000 They were, a lot of people were happy because finally, The Catholic Church's grip on society would loosen.

00:41:50.000 So we had an industry boom, open to free trade, globalization essentially.

00:41:58.000 The Catholic Church's power went down.

00:42:00.000 Then we had people like Chuck Feeney and others pumping billions into NGOs and universities.

00:42:07.000 And those millions would have gone into progressive NGOs.

00:42:13.000 So, you know, like gender equality, trans.

00:42:18.000 There's, I have, yeah, like a lot of weird stuff.

00:42:21.000 I have a list.

00:42:22.000 It's just, it's got to, I'm sorry, it's got to be a conspiracy, right?

00:42:25.000 It's happening in Ireland, it's happening in America, it's happening in Britain, it's happening in France and Germany, all these countries. 0.62

00:42:30.000 Like, look at, like, some of them, and this sets up then later on what ends up creating this, you know, infrastructure where there's a lot of people in the West that rely on refugees coming in and immigration.

00:42:30.000 Yeah.

00:42:47.000 Like, we have, NGOs like this Immigrant Council of Ireland, Integrating Ireland, Refugee Information Services, African Women's Network, Irish Council of Civil Liberties, the Gay and Lesbian Equality Network, Lesbian in Cork, Lesbians in Cork, not to be confused with Lesbians in Galway.

00:43:06.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:43:06.000 Is that actually a different organization?

00:43:09.000 No, no. 0.99

00:43:11.000 Silly place. 0.99

00:43:12.000 Why not? 0.95

00:43:14.000 So all these NGOs employ people and they make a lot of money.

00:43:18.000 They all rely, like the Immigrant Council of Ireland rely on immigrants.

00:43:23.000 If immigrants stop coming in, they lose their job.

00:43:25.000 And the more immigrants that come in, the more funding from the state they get.

00:43:30.000 A good example of this was the Irish Network Against Racism. 0.60

00:43:35.000 They make their money if there's racism, obviously.

00:43:38.000 If there's no racism, they lose their job.

00:43:41.000 They set up an I report system.

00:43:44.000 The I report system means people can go online and even if they perceive a racism happen or a racist.

00:43:52.000 Thing happening.

00:43:54.000 All they have to do is perceive it.

00:43:55.000 You don't have to even be involved.

00:43:57.000 You can go report it.

00:43:59.000 It was in 2018, I think they had 190 reports.

00:44:04.000 Then they were basically there was a video came out of immigrants saying they were like encouraged to report racism.

00:44:13.000 It rose by 300 to 400 percent.

00:44:16.000 And then that year they go to the government and they go, Look at all this racism.

00:44:21.000 And the government hands them millions.

00:44:21.000 Yep.

00:44:23.000 Are you familiar with the Southern Poverty Law Center in the US?

00:44:26.000 No.

00:44:27.000 We just had a big scandal.

00:44:28.000 There's a group, we call it the SPLC, and they put out Hate Watch.

00:44:33.000 They said Charlie Kirk spread hate.

00:44:35.000 And they put them on these lists.

00:44:37.000 They list all these conservative organizations or Christian organizations.

00:44:40.000 And the big scandal right now is they've been indicted because they were actually funneling money to neo Nazi groups, white supremacists.

00:44:50.000 Hey, look, you make money off the racism, you need the racism to keep happening.

00:44:54.000 And I think there was an analysis done in the United States six, seven years ago that we only actually have around 11,000 white supremacists, like overt flag waving out of 300 and some odd million people.

00:45:09.000 Well, how are you going to make money off a problem so small?

00:45:11.000 Yeah.

00:45:11.000 So, they, interestingly enough, they've been accused of helping fund some of the biggest rallies or organize or bring people in.

00:45:18.000 Now they're being criminally charged because our government's calling it fraud.

00:45:22.000 They defrauded the donors.

00:45:23.000 They told the donors, if you give us money, we'll fight this, and then gave money to white supremacists to hold rallies.

00:45:29.000 Yeah. 0.97

00:45:29.000 Insane. 0.97

00:45:30.000 It's insane, isn't it?

00:45:31.000 So, you're creating a system which rewards these things.

00:45:37.000 It's the same with the NGOs.

00:45:39.000 We have NGOs.

00:45:41.000 On the Mediterranean that bring in refugees. 1.00

00:45:44.000 So all refugees just have to set off from the north of Africa in their dinghies. 0.97

00:45:51.000 They get to a certain amount and then these NGO ships will pick them up and bring them to Europe. 0.95

00:45:56.000 But you see, look what word you just used refugee. 0.94

00:45:59.000 Yeah.

00:45:59.000 They're not refugees.

00:46:00.000 They're not. 1.00

00:46:00.000 No, no, no. 1.00

00:46:01.000 Economic migrants.

00:46:02.000 Yeah.

00:46:03.000 If that, I would actually, I went to Paris in 2018 and interviewed, I would call some of these people victims.

00:46:11.000 And I went to Athens as well. 0.97

00:46:13.000 And I know there's going to be a lot of people who have a visceral reaction to no, no, no, these are these are these people are economic migrants, many of them criminals. 0.95

00:46:19.000 But let me just hear me out. 0.97

00:46:21.000 I go to Paris and they have this big inflatable tent, right?

00:46:24.000 It's massive.

00:46:24.000 I don't know if you've ever seen these things they do where to put up a structure to protect from the elements, it's just like plastic and then they pump air and then it inflates and then you can go inside and sit down.

00:46:34.000 Yeah.

00:46:34.000 It's warm.

00:46:35.000 I talked to these guys from sub Saharan Africa who said they were tricked. 0.87

00:46:40.000 They said in their home countries, they were told that France has a program to welcome them, which is technically true.

00:46:46.000 And that they're in desperate need of workers for low skill jobs.

00:46:49.000 And so this guy's telling me, he's like, they lied to us.

00:46:51.000 They told us to come because we were being invited to the country to come and work.

00:46:56.000 And he's like, and when we show up, they have nothing for us and we're cold.

00:47:00.000 And we want to go home.

00:47:02.000 And now that's weird.

00:47:05.000 So, in essence, it is true that they are trying to bring them in.

00:47:09.000 There are, in some instances, low skill jobs they want them to do.

00:47:13.000 But this guy, it was really fascinating.

00:47:15.000 He said, I've never seen snow before.

00:47:17.000 He's like, I'm in a cold place now and it's painful and I don't want to be here and I'd rather be at home.

00:47:22.000 They tricked us into coming. 0.52

00:47:24.000 And so they go on this dangerous journey thinking that, you know, France and all the French people are waving flags saying, please help us.

00:47:31.000 Some of these people obviously know full well they're coming for exploitation, right?

00:47:35.000 They land on a beach and they run in and they try and get past the cops.

00:47:37.000 I think that's most of them.

00:47:39.000 When I went to Athens, I found something similar.

00:47:41.000 I talked to one guy who said that he was from Afghanistan.

00:47:44.000 And with the conflict, they're told you can come to Europe because they're happy to bring you in.

00:47:51.000 And then he's like, and then we find out most people are mad at us.

00:47:53.000 Yeah.

00:47:54.000 A lot.

00:47:54.000 And, you know, some of these people, they're lucid.

00:47:57.000 I guess they're smarter and they speak English to me.

00:47:59.000 They say, like, there's a lot of criminals who came from their country too.

00:48:03.000 And this guy was a drug dealer.

00:48:05.000 Right. 0.99

00:48:05.000 And so I'm like, well, I was like, you're a criminal, you're a drug dealer. 0.99

00:48:08.000 And he was like, I have no choice.

00:48:10.000 He's like, I wasn't a drug dealer at home, but I come here and I'm sleeping on the streets.

00:48:14.000 They give me nothing.

00:48:15.000 And the way I find money is I sell drugs to people.

00:48:18.000 And I'm like, would you leave if you could?

00:48:20.000 And I hear from these people too, like, yes, I wanna go home.

00:48:22.000 Wow.

00:48:23.000 But I would say, obviously, this is a minority.

00:48:25.000 It's a minority. 0.61

00:48:26.000 It is, yeah.

00:48:27.000 Most of the people are happy to exploit and take what they can get. 1.00

00:48:31.000 We've got a big thing here in the United States with the Somali community in Minnesota the fraud. 1.00

00:48:39.000 I can't believe that our countries are being extracted by, for whatever reason, by powerful elites. 1.00

00:48:45.000 And these people they bring in, what they'll do is they've been setting up medical programs or nursing homes or daycares, bill the government millions of dollars, but never actually do anything.

00:48:56.000 Then they publicly say, We're sending this money back to Somalia.

00:48:59.000 Yeah, it's shocking. 0.99

00:49:00.000 It's just extraction.

00:49:02.000 And how long can we last?

00:49:03.000 And it's so blatant.

00:49:06.000 And nothing's done.

00:49:07.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:49:08.000 And it's, I think the root cause of the problem is the moral philosophy of do we actually have a responsibility to these people?

00:49:18.000 And I don't think we do. 1.00

00:49:20.000 I think the refugee program in its entirety should be shut down. 1.00

00:49:24.000 I don't think we should be taking refugees from parts of Africa. 0.99

00:49:27.000 You can make an argument for setting up centers over there to help them.

00:49:36.000 Change, you know, you don't want to go into regime change, but try to steer them in the right direction.

00:49:43.000 But in no way, like, where's the moral argument for bringing in refugees if that results in even one child getting attacked and raped? 0.99

00:49:53.000 I think it completely falls apart. 0.80

00:49:56.000 And it's the whole time in England, you look almost every week now, you hear of a report of refugees that came in, they might have been here for a few months and they went out. 0.93

00:50:10.000 And raped a child. 0.56

00:50:11.000 There was a two year old. 0.99

00:50:14.000 I just heard that.

00:50:14.000 You see that, yeah.

00:50:16.000 Shocking.

00:50:16.000 Oh my God.

00:50:18.000 You're familiar with The Punisher?

00:50:20.000 The Marvel character, The Punisher?

00:50:22.000 Oh no.

00:50:23.000 No, no.

00:50:23.000 You don't know The Punisher?

00:50:24.000 Oh man.

00:50:25.000 Yeah.

00:50:26.000 Oh.

00:50:27.000 But you know Marvel, Spider Man.

00:50:29.000 Yeah, The Punisher is a guy whose wife and daughter were killed.

00:50:35.000 So now he just massacres criminals.

00:50:36.000 He's an anti hero.

00:50:38.000 Right.

00:50:39.000 And he's actually going to be in the Spider Man movie coming out in a month.

00:50:41.000 Yeah.

00:50:42.000 And his whole character is that after the murder of his family, he just murders villains.

00:50:49.000 You know, we get this comic book trope of don't kill, you know.

00:50:53.000 Batman's like, we can't kill people.

00:50:55.000 Like, Punisher just didn't care.

00:50:58.000 In fact, I love this.

00:51:00.000 And I know there's a lot of people who are like, this is an important part of the conversation.

00:51:04.000 There's a lot of people who would say, this is for children, comics, don't talk about it.

00:51:06.000 No, no, no, no, hold on.

00:51:08.000 This is important.

00:51:09.000 Are you familiar with Ghost Rider?

00:51:11.000 So you got to know your Marvel stuff, right?

00:51:11.000 No.

00:51:13.000 So Ghost Rider.

00:51:15.000 He was a daredevil on a motorcycle.

00:51:16.000 This is the story.

00:51:18.000 And he dies.

00:51:19.000 He crashes.

00:51:20.000 And the devil offers him a deal to serve as his, I don't know, legionnaire.

00:51:27.000 And he brings him back.

00:51:28.000 So Ghost Rider's head is a flaming skull.

00:51:30.000 He's got a leather jacket and a chain.

00:51:31.000 He drives a motorcycle.

00:51:32.000 And what he does is evil people must pay their dues, and the devil owns them.

00:51:38.000 And so in the comics, he has something called the penance stare.

00:51:41.000 He looks into your eyes, and for all of the sins you've committed, your soul burns, and you, like, You feel the agony of every death you've ever committed.

00:51:51.000 And famously in the comics, when he tried to pen and stare the Punisher, who's murdered thousands, he killed thousands of criminals, nothing happened because he has no remorse for anything he's done.

00:52:02.000 So there's no guilt, there's no sin.

00:52:04.000 He believes he is morally justified in killing all these people.

00:52:07.000 And so I bring that up just because two things.

00:52:11.000 One, that story of the two year old raped and murdered, I think the story of the Punisher didn't go far enough.

00:52:19.000 And I mean this sincerely.

00:52:20.000 Like, you have a guy in, I don't know what year they wrote this character.

00:52:24.000 The idea was that his family is killed, so he decides he's going to start killing people.

00:52:26.000 And I'm like, I think the extent to which you would see a man break if something like that happens to his child is like it starts wars.

00:52:34.000 It's more than just a guy going around beating up gangbangers and shooting people.

00:52:40.000 It is profoundly terrifying what the right man with the right motivations who suffers a tragedy to such an extreme degree could genocide a country.

00:52:51.000 I mean, it terrifies me.

00:52:52.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:52:53.000 The other thing I'll mention about the culture is. 1.00

00:52:56.000 You know, I bring up comic books and movies, and then there are a lot of conservatives who are like, this is stupid. 0.99

00:53:01.000 But no, this is what informs us. 0.82

00:53:03.000 When we grow up hearing stories from the previous generations, and there was a with the character of the Punisher, he's extremely popular right now because the Marvel movies, you know, they haven't done actually, I'll put it this way.

00:53:15.000 Yeah.

00:53:16.000 Let's connect it.

00:53:17.000 All the weird woke stuff, Marvel is the biggest thing in the world from 2008 until 2019.

00:53:23.000 Yeah.

00:53:23.000 These movies, billions and billions and billions.

00:53:26.000 And then they go woke.

00:53:27.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:53:27.000 They're trying to bring in the female characters. 1.00

00:53:29.000 They do the girl power stuff. 1.00

00:53:30.000 Destroys us. 1.00

00:53:31.000 Everything starts bombing.

00:53:32.000 Yeah.

00:53:33.000 Then they make.

00:53:36.000 Spider Man's doing well, and they're trying to erase it all.

00:53:39.000 What does well is they just put out a Punisher short film where it's literally 40 minutes of him brutally, to the extreme of gore, massacring criminals.

00:53:39.000 All right.

00:53:50.000 It's literally 40 minutes of him slitting throats and shotgunning to the head and like blood. 0.97

00:53:55.000 It is insane.

00:53:56.000 And I'm like, I think they finally figured out what people really want.

00:53:59.000 Yeah.

00:53:59.000 There you go.

00:54:00.000 But.

00:54:01.000 So here's why I think the culture is important, and we'll tie it back into everything we're seeing Citizen Vigilante.

00:54:06.000 Yeah.

00:54:07.000 This film, which is Uwe Bol, is that his name?

00:54:10.000 Uwe Bol.

00:54:11.000 And he's like a B movie director, and he does these, like, I don't call them silly, but they're considered to be B movies, right?

00:54:20.000 And it's remarkable because I see this movie start popping up, and it's basically just, it's kind of like The Punisher.

00:54:27.000 Yeah.

00:54:28.000 He gets sick and tired of all the crime and the corruption, and then he goes to the victim and says, Did you get justice?

00:54:33.000 And they're like, No.

00:54:35.000 And then he goes and he just massacres people.

00:54:38.000 Here's what's scary how much people love it.

00:54:41.000 Oh, yeah.

00:54:42.000 What is that sentiment, you know?

00:54:43.000 Yeah.

00:54:46.000 There's an underlying feeling that people have that isn't being addressed, you know?

00:54:52.000 And that movie kind of hints at it.

00:54:56.000 It's scary, dude.

00:54:56.000 It says, look.

00:54:57.000 Yeah, And that's why it's done so well because people feel like justice isn't being done and they feel like they're second class citizens in their own country.

00:55:09.000 Which they are.

00:55:10.000 You know, we have in Ireland, it's unbelievably shocking how bad it is in Ireland.

00:55:18.000 There are hotels all across the country that are owned by private contractors.

00:55:24.000 And essentially, what the government does is it goes to them and says, We will offer you full occupancy at 99 euro a head. 0.99

00:55:33.000 All you have to do is fill it with foreigners. 0.98

00:55:36.000 They do that here too. 0.98

00:55:37.000 Yeah.

00:55:38.000 In New York?

00:55:39.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:55:40.000 You know, and you know what's really brutal is Gen Z is struggling right now. 1.00

00:55:44.000 Yeah. 0.99

00:55:45.000 They can't find meaningful work.

00:55:47.000 They can't afford to buy homes or have families.

00:55:47.000 Yeah.

00:55:50.000 At the same time, there's a luxury hotel in New York City in a wealthy neighborhood full of sub Saharan African migrants, and they get PlayStations. 0.69

00:56:02.000 They come in, they get a room. 1.00

00:56:05.000 I mean, these are studio apartments, effectively, where you get a bed, you get a TV, cable, internet, you get your own private space, and they got PlayStation in to play video games for free.

00:56:14.000 For what reason is the question?

00:56:17.000 Obviously, it's happening to Ireland, it's happening to the United States, it's happening all across Europe.

00:56:21.000 It's on purpose.

00:56:22.000 There is some external force to our countries that has infiltrated or done something to where they can take our public money and the labor we do and give it away to people whose output is zero.

00:56:34.000 Yeah.

00:56:35.000 It's totally wrong.

00:56:36.000 They're essentially, like in Ireland, we have obviously a cost of living crisis and a housing crisis.

00:56:42.000 Young people find it hard to afford their first home and start a family.

00:56:47.000 They're essentially the government is, whatever savings they have, Whatever they're trying to save, the government is reaching into their pocket, taking it out, handing it to already wealthy people who own these hotels and say, just house foreigners there and we'll keep taking money off these people.

00:57:05.000 I was going to ask you why, like, what's the Irish birth rate? 0.54

00:57:09.000 It's low, I'd imagine, right?

00:57:10.000 I think it's 1.7 or 1.9.

00:57:13.000 And, you know, the funny thing is the Irish are famous for having lots of kids. 1.00

00:57:17.000 Yeah, that's the joke in the United States.

00:57:19.000 My father has 11.

00:57:24.000 11 children, yeah.

00:57:26.000 You said your father?

00:57:27.000 No, I said my father, he would have had 11 siblings.

00:57:31.000 Well, 10 siblings.

00:57:32.000 Yes, yes, yes.

00:57:33.000 Wow.

00:57:34.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:57:35.000 I'd have 45 cousins on one side.

00:57:37.000 Do you have a family or anything?

00:57:39.000 No, no family.

00:57:40.000 What do you like?

00:57:41.000 Obviously, I think the people watching have assumptions about what changed, but I'm curious in your experience, like what changed for your generation to where you go from 11 kids to not having a family yet, at least?

00:57:52.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:57:54.000 It's.

00:57:55.000 I think it's where, obviously, I think a lot of it is to do with money.

00:58:01.000 We're left with, in Ireland, we were left, our generation were left with the debt incurred with the financial crisis in 2008, where essentially our government bailed out private banks in the tune of billions, which is trillions here, you know?

00:58:17.000 Same thing here.

00:58:18.000 Yeah, shocking.

00:58:20.000 They decided, it's unbelievable, the banks gave out all these loans.

00:58:27.000 Had very little risk awareness.

00:58:30.000 And when everything came crashing down, a lot of men ended up taking their own life after the financial crisis.

00:58:36.000 The government decided, you know what, we'll bail out the banks.

00:58:41.000 They'll bail out the banks, and the people who owed money still owed money.

00:58:46.000 And then we were left with the debt of that.

00:58:48.000 And then I think over time, what happens is they come up with reasons to kind of tax you more.

00:58:54.000 Like the USC was introduced.

00:58:57.000 What was that?

00:58:58.000 It's a universal social charge.

00:59:01.000 It was brought, is how bad it is.

00:59:03.000 It was brought in to pay off the debt of the financial crisis.

00:59:10.000 And, you know, they said they'll take it away, but they never do, you know?

00:59:14.000 And it's just sitting there now taking money off people.

00:59:17.000 Same with carbon tax and all this other stuff.

00:59:21.000 All that, I think, is just a means to take more money off people.

00:59:25.000 It's fascinating how much you describe literally happened here as well.

00:59:29.000 And I'm sure it happened everywhere else.

00:59:30.000 We had the 2000.

00:59:31.000 So when people.

00:59:33.000 You know, ask me.

00:59:34.000 I just recently had my first kid.

00:59:36.000 I'm 40.

00:59:38.000 And I'm like, listen, when I, when the traditional age an American would have a child is between, like around 22 years old, 22, 24 maybe.

00:59:45.000 At that age, that's when the, I was 22 when the financial crash happened.

00:59:48.000 Yeah.

00:59:49.000 21, 22, I was sleeping on floors.

00:59:52.000 I couldn't get a job.

00:59:53.000 I couldn't have a family.

00:59:56.000 It was impossible.

00:59:57.000 It's interesting to me that the same mechanisms that were happening here happened there.

01:00:02.000 And so there's two thoughts about it, I suppose.

01:00:04.000 Could it be that greedy, ignorant people were making so much money off of this system that propped up bad loans? 0.79

01:00:12.000 They didn't care what the long term effects were going to be, resulting in this crisis. 0.93

01:00:17.000 And the end result is. 0.96

01:00:19.000 Financial crisis, economic strain, debt resulting in no population growth, the governments in panic to patch up this hole, try to bring in as many migrants as possible to do low skilled labor. 0.53

01:00:32.000 Or could it be this was the intended condition? 0.71

01:00:35.000 The economic crisis, in fact, was on purpose.

01:00:39.000 The reason I bring that up is because are you familiar?

01:00:42.000 I mentioned it earlier, but Malthusianism?

01:00:44.000 No.

01:00:45.000 There's a book called The Population Bomb.

01:00:47.000 And in the 70s, a lot of prominent wealthy individuals bought into this ideology that.

01:00:52.000 There is a finite amount of human population capable on Earth.

01:00:55.000 Right.

01:00:56.000 Which is, I would argue, in the simplest of terms, if you're a child, obviously, right?

01:01:02.000 I mean, only so many humans can fit in a building.

01:01:04.000 Yeah.

01:01:05.000 The question is, what is the capacity of Earth?

01:01:07.000 How many humans can it maintain?

01:01:09.000 And so these people feared that the generations were exponentially increasing, particularly with new forms of energy, nuclear being a really high return on energy invested, oil, of course, being just tremendous.

01:01:21.000 We look at the Industrial Revolution.

01:01:23.000 Particularly with the expansion of oil and population skyrockets.

01:01:28.000 The earth for a long time was relatively stable in small population growth until the early 1900s.

01:01:33.000 So these wealthy elites are like, we need people to not have kids.

01:01:36.000 We need to retract the population.

01:01:38.000 There's something called the Georgia Guidestones. 0.99

01:01:40.000 I imagine you probably never heard of these.

01:01:42.000 But it's interesting nonetheless, they're these stones that were put up in Georgia.

01:01:42.000 No.

01:01:47.000 And no one knows exactly who did, but it gave instructions on how to run the planet.

01:01:52.000 And one of them was the population must never surpass 500 million.

01:01:58.000 In the planet, on the planet of 8 billion.

01:02:02.000 So everyone kind of looks at each other like, a bunch of wealthy individuals put up these monuments and they tell you you can't have more than 500.

01:02:11.000 Okay, well, there's 8 billion now.

01:02:12.000 What does that mean they're going to do?

01:02:14.000 So we start seeing in our media, there's a video that goes viral from time to time from a show called Captain Planet.

01:02:21.000 You ever hear of Captain Planet?

01:02:22.000 No. 1.00

01:02:23.000 You're Irish, you know.

01:02:23.000 So I imagine there's a lot of things you didn't hear of for here.

01:02:27.000 It's like, was it five teenagers are given magic rings?

01:02:32.000 All right.

01:02:32.000 And it's earth, water, fire, wind, and heart, I guess.

01:02:38.000 I don't know.

01:02:39.000 I'm looking at Carter like that.

01:02:40.000 I don't know.

01:02:41.000 Fire.

01:02:42.000 But the villains were industrialists, and it was corporate greed.

01:02:48.000 You know, there's one bad guy named loot, one bad guy named plunder.

01:02:51.000 All right.

01:02:53.000 And Captain Planet, when they fire their magic rings off, It makes Captain Planet a superhero, right? 0.81

01:03:00.000 It's so silly if you think about environmentalism.

01:03:03.000 But they did an episode where Captain Planet says, Stop having kids.

01:03:06.000 Explicitly.

01:03:07.000 So this has got to be like 91.

01:03:09.000 And I'll put it up in a second.

01:03:11.000 They say something like, There are too many people on Earth.

01:03:16.000 You don't need to have a big family.

01:03:17.000 Isn't, after all, the world your family?

01:03:20.000 Yeah.

01:03:21.000 So this is what we're all told growing up. 1.00

01:03:23.000 Women are told, You don't need to have a family or be a mom. 1.00

01:03:26.000 You can be a girl boss. 0.94

01:03:27.000 It's not just the economic collapse happened.

01:03:30.000 We have been ingrained for decades to not have families, that it's not good, it's not fun, it's not socially acceptable, or whatever reason.

01:03:37.000 When the financial collapse happens, it certainly makes it worse. 1.00

01:03:40.000 Then they bring in all these economic migrants. 1.00

01:03:41.000 I can't help but conclude it's not an accident. 0.90

01:03:44.000 That, you know, one of the theories is that everything we're seeing across the country is homogenizing culture.

01:03:44.000 No.

01:03:54.000 You erase the Irish identity and you get this weird amalgam of lowest common denominator nonsense. 0.84

01:04:00.000 And then it's interchangeable with France. 0.98

01:04:02.000 Spot on, yeah.

01:04:04.000 I say that a lot on my videos.

01:04:07.000 Like, it makes sense for people.

01:04:09.000 Like, if they want, if there is to be a ruling class, essentially what you want is all European countries to be one of the same.

01:04:19.000 And then you don't have a national identity of any of them.

01:04:23.000 And you can rule over them.

01:04:24.000 I think it's like, as you say, it's a combination of stuff. 1.00

01:04:27.000 It's the girl boss attitude.

01:04:29.000 It's also girls going to, like, think about girls, women's lifetime. 1.00

01:04:36.000 Like, they go out of school. 1.00

01:04:38.000 They obviously are told, get a degree.

01:04:40.000 You spend four or five years in a degree.

01:04:43.000 You obviously want to use, oh, yeah, you obviously want to use that degree.

01:04:48.000 You're going to spend another four or five years in the workforce.

01:04:51.000 That stage, your third day.

01:04:54.000 Hopefully, by then, you've found someone and you've been trying to find someone.

01:04:58.000 If not, it might take another few years.

01:05:01.000 You have to get to know someone before marriage.

01:05:03.000 There's not much time left for your window to have children.

01:05:08.000 There was a funny post on Reddit last week where it was a screenshot of a tweet.

01:05:16.000 Someone mentioned Anne Hathaway and a couple other female celebrities who are like 38 to 41 having kids. 0.83

01:05:21.000 And someone responded to the news story saying elderly women should not be having kids.

01:05:27.000 Oh, really?

01:05:28.000 So that post was on Reddit.

01:05:29.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:05:30.000 And someone, it was called like, explain the joke.

01:05:33.000 Is it the subreddit?

01:05:34.000 And someone said, I don't understand why they're calling someone elderly.

01:05:37.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:05:38.000 Top comment was women at 35 pregnancies are called geriatric pregnancies.

01:05:45.000 Because that is a dangerous and late pregnancy for a woman with high risk, a lot of abnormalities, a lot of miscarriages as well. 0.86

01:05:45.000 Right. 0.86

01:05:54.000 Yeah.

01:05:54.000 Absolutely.

01:05:55.000 And it's, you know, Women, I think, aren't being adequately informed by our societies that the best age to have a child is by 22. 1.00

01:06:05.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:06:05.000 But the fascinating thing is this assumption that a 22 year old is still a child. 0.99

01:06:11.000 Yeah.

01:06:11.000 You are an adult human being.

01:06:13.000 Yeah.

01:06:14.000 You are supposed to be on your own with a family and a house and all of these things. 1.00

01:06:18.000 Like that whole thing, she's 22, you sick freak. 1.00

01:06:21.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:06:22.000 It's so well.

01:06:24.000 The fascinating thing, too, is on the dating apps, they find that women.

01:06:24.000 Yeah.

01:06:30.000 Message men their own age always. 0.76

01:06:32.000 So they look at the scale of age and it's like a 22 year old woman will message a 22 or 23 year old man. 0.58

01:06:37.000 Yeah.

01:06:38.000 Men only ever message 22 year old women. 0.99

01:06:41.000 Yeah. 0.97

01:06:42.000 And like feminists get upset about this. 1.00

01:06:44.000 But there's a very obvious reason. 1.00

01:06:44.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:06:46.000 A man of any age, up to a certain point, obviously, like, you know, a 50 year old woman is still going to be talking to a 50 year old man because the assumption is you're not having family at that age.

01:06:56.000 It's like we're just looking for friends to hang out with.

01:06:59.000 But for men who are seeking romantic partnership, spot on.

01:07:02.000 A 22 year old woman can have kids. 0.92

01:07:04.000 And a man can have kids at any age, and a woman cannot. 0.99

01:07:06.000 So the woman is not as interested, and the man is. 1.00

01:07:09.000 Feminists get mad about that. 1.00

01:07:10.000 Oh, it's creepy.

01:07:11.000 Why would a 40 year old man, especially a 22 year old, if he wants to have a family?

01:07:14.000 Yeah.

01:07:15.000 I mean, you know, I feel bad for a lot of these guys.

01:07:17.000 I have friends who are in their 40s and they want to have families, but they can't because of the current state of things.

01:07:24.000 I brought this up seven years ago on this show where I said, in the greater context, what I was discussing was modern feminism has created a circumstance by which women don't want to settle down and have families at the age in which they can do it. 0.81

01:07:43.000 And if you are a man trying to find a traditional woman who wants to take care of your house because you can't, you can't get them.

01:07:51.000 And of course, the left takes it out of context.

01:07:51.000 No.

01:07:55.000 They attack me for it, say Tim's an incel and all these things.

01:07:57.000 I'm married, I have a kid.

01:07:58.000 My issue was when I was in my late 20s, I would have loved to have had a woman who says, You go do the work, you find the resources, I'll find the family.

01:07:58.000 Yeah.

01:08:07.000 Like, I will work my finger to the bone for the family.

01:08:11.000 You work your finger to the bone for the resources for that family.

01:08:13.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:08:14.000 But the modern ideology tells women not to do that. 1.00

01:08:17.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:08:17.000 You're 22, time to go into the workforce and be a girl boss. 1.00

01:08:19.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:08:20.000 And so most of the women that you will find in a city are going to say, I'm not having kids.

01:08:25.000 I'm not going to have a family.

01:08:26.000 Yeah.

01:08:27.000 I'm independent.

01:08:28.000 I'm on my own. 0.90

01:08:29.000 And, I think, you know, I would make the argument to the chagrin of the feminists women would be much happier if they were moms, if they were with their kids, if they're at home.

01:08:43.000 It is, you know, is it just insane that so many of women of our age have been convinced working a nine to five in an office is preferable to being at home with your kids?

01:08:53.000 Shocking, yeah.

01:08:54.000 They're offended by the idea.

01:08:56.000 But they police each other as well.

01:08:58.000 You know, you see it so often a woman will prefer to be at home with her kids.

01:09:05.000 And making, we used to call it making a house a home. 0.99

01:09:09.000 Yeah.

01:09:10.000 And women will attack another woman for doing that, for having that choice, saying, you're wasting your life, you should get back into the workforce. 1.00

01:09:19.000 You're thinking, why? 1.00

01:09:21.000 You know, they kind of self sabotage each other with it.

01:09:27.000 I like the problem with this is you can, we can talk about it. 0.89

01:09:35.000 Like the issue is, you can't talk about essentially, you can't suggest that a woman, almost, you know, you can't suggest a woman might be happier at home because you'll get attacked.

01:09:47.000 You know what I mean? 0.92

01:09:47.000 You'll get attacked. 0.92

01:09:48.000 I don't care. 0.61

01:09:48.000 Yeah, I know. 0.61

01:09:50.000 But why shouldn't you be able to have that conversation?

01:09:53.000 Why is it a thing that you will get attacked by saying that?

01:09:56.000 Yep.

01:09:57.000 You know, it speaks to something.

01:10:00.000 I would rather be on the hunt, I'd rather be working and building.

01:10:03.000 Yeah.

01:10:04.000 And, you know, as, as, You know, I'm married, I have one kid, and it was late.

01:10:09.000 You know, to be fair, you know, I can eat this one.

01:10:13.000 My wife and I could have had a kid sooner.

01:10:15.000 There was, you know, when we were in our early 30s, because my wife and I have known each other for decades, it was just, we thought it would just happen.

01:10:15.000 Yeah.

01:10:26.000 We were like, you know, come on, we're too, you know, it's going to happen.

01:10:26.000 Yeah.

01:10:29.000 And then we got to the point where we were like, okay, let's make sure it happens.

01:10:34.000 Yeah.

01:10:34.000 And for the younger people out there, what that basically means is you go to the doctor, you get the hormone tests, and you're like, We want to make sure we're doing things properly because we're in our 30s.

01:10:43.000 When you're in your 20s, it just happens, you know, because you're doing your thing, you know what I mean? 1.00

01:10:47.000 So, you know, we could have, but I don't much care for the feminists who get all angry about it because I describe it as a self correcting problem. 1.00

01:10:57.000 I saw this woman, she's like a libertarian, she posted on X. 1.00

01:11:01.000 I don't want to have kids and I don't need to have kids.

01:11:02.000 And I just responded, this is a self correcting problem.

01:11:06.000 Now, I didn't say this with malice or viciousness.

01:11:10.000 And it wasn't like a direct, it was part of a conversation about like she had this big post saying, some people want to have kids, some don't.

01:11:18.000 And my point was people who don't want to have kids, there is no debate to be had with them.

01:11:24.000 They simply cease to exist.

01:11:26.000 They will get old, they will die, and their lineage will not, will be gone.

01:11:26.000 Yeah.

01:11:31.000 She got offended by it.

01:11:33.000 Yeah.

01:11:34.000 And she said something like, Do you think this is insulting to me?

01:11:37.000 And I said, I don't know why you would perceive it as an insult.

01:11:39.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:11:40.000 What does that say about how she feels?

01:11:42.000 Of course.

01:11:43.000 The idea that she would be insulted, that I simply pointed out the fact her genetic line ends with her.

01:11:50.000 Shows that she actually does have some shame or guilt.

01:11:53.000 Yeah.

01:11:54.000 You know what's fascinating is if you do not have a child, you will be the first life form in four billion years to have not reproduced. 0.85

01:12:04.000 Unless you're Christian and you believe the earth is much younger than that, but the truth remains you'll be the first person in your family to have ever not had a kid. 0.86

01:12:04.000 Yeah. 0.86

01:12:12.000 You'd have stopped it.

01:12:13.000 Yeah.

01:12:14.000 That's crazy when you think about it.

01:12:16.000 It is crazy.

01:12:16.000 Yeah.

01:12:17.000 It's just, it's that, I don't, it's the ideology that's being pushed to.

01:12:24.000 It's this, and I think a lot of it's tied to social media too.

01:12:28.000 I don't know if it's, you know, an attractive thing to go off and have a kid.

01:12:34.000 You know, isn't it better to go on holidays, you know, and take pictures and put them on Instagram?

01:12:40.000 But the social media platforms intentionally promote these things.

01:12:44.000 Yeah.

01:12:45.000 So we saw this, you know, with the emergence of Instagram, there's been this phenomenon young girls are getting extremely depressed from the interactions on Instagram.

01:12:55.000 So a 16 year old girl will post a picture of herself.

01:12:55.000 Yeah.

01:12:58.000 It'll only get 10 likes.

01:12:59.000 She'll delete it right away.

01:13:00.000 Yeah.

01:13:01.000 Repost another one hoping to get more likes, and she's attaching her social worth to whether or not the algorithm is showing her to people.

01:13:07.000 Yeah.

01:13:08.000 So, what happens then is you mentioned this, they could police each other. 1.00

01:13:13.000 Men are object oriented, women are subject oriented, generally speaking.

01:13:17.000 So, you know, this is Phil Labonte, you co host the show, he got in a lot of trouble because he said therapy is not for men.

01:13:24.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:13:25.000 And I agreed.

01:13:26.000 The idea of a man sitting in a chair and talking about his problems for the sake of talking about his problems is not.

01:13:30.000 How men work.

01:13:31.000 They're better off doing something.

01:13:33.000 I said the only therapy a man needs is picking up heavy things and moving it.

01:13:36.000 He needs to feel useful.

01:13:37.000 Yeah.

01:13:38.000 So, you know, guys get depressed.

01:13:39.000 There's a lot of things, but women get their validation from each other.

01:13:43.000 Men get their validation from their accomplishments. 0.99

01:13:43.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:13:46.000 Now, of course, women, it's inverted. 0.91

01:13:50.000 Maybe it's 60% social for men, 40% accomplishment. 0.85

01:13:53.000 And for men, it's 40% social, 60% accomplishment.

01:13:56.000 But for women on social media, if they open up their Instagram, And they're being given nothing but woke left stuff.

01:14:04.000 They will in public adhere to that with cult like fervor. 0.91

01:14:08.000 That's what I think we see with wokeness.

01:14:09.000 That's what the weird left stuff is. 0.58

01:14:12.000 And that's why I think you get so many conservative women saying in the United States, they say repeal the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. 1.00

01:14:19.000 Oh, shit. 0.99

01:14:20.000 Do you have anything like that in Ireland? 1.00

01:14:20.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:14:23.000 I think it's just, I think it's in the Constitution that everyone has the right.

01:14:23.000 No.

01:14:28.000 So women have always been able to vote in Ireland? 1.00

01:14:30.000 Since because the free state started in 1922.

01:14:30.000 I believe so, yeah.

01:14:33.000 Right.

01:14:34.000 And then you know what the we?

01:14:35.000 Yeah.

01:14:35.000 That's like, I, I, that was around the same time in the United States.

01:14:38.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:14:39.000 We granted suffrage to women. 1.00

01:14:40.000 We had a, we had a big issue with it here, though.

01:14:42.000 Um, most people, I'll tell you else, what's really, what's really scary is, uh, I saw this Michael Jackson quote.

01:14:48.000 I don't know if it's true or not.

01:14:49.000 Yeah.

01:14:50.000 Where he said, all of your history is faked or something to that effect.

01:14:54.000 Yeah.

01:14:54.000 And I'm like, uh, very smart.

01:14:57.000 Yeah.

01:14:58.000 You know, Michael Jackson, he understood it, weird as he was, but you know, he was great for other reasons.

01:15:02.000 Yeah.

01:15:02.000 So the, uh, People in the United States are raised to believe that we had this evil oppressive society where women were not allowed to vote.

01:15:09.000 And then women bravely fought and said, we deserve rights, when actually that was not what happened.

01:15:09.000 Yeah.

01:15:14.000 What actually happened was the social view at the time was voting was a product of work.

01:15:14.000 No.

01:15:22.000 That the purpose of voting was for the object oriented nature of society.

01:15:26.000 Meaning, if you were voting, it was like, hey, we're going to build a road.

01:15:32.000 Hey, we're going to build a bridge.

01:15:34.000 Hey, we're going to keep out these criminals here. 1.00

01:15:37.000 And so women didn't have to worry about that stuff. 1.00

01:15:39.000 This wasn't the job. 1.00

01:15:41.000 Since we separated governance from work, we've created permanent. 0.80

01:15:47.000 Jobs as politicians. 1.00

01:15:49.000 Now, all of a sudden, there's a question of, well, shouldn't women get a say? 1.00

01:15:53.000 And this largely emerged as there were a lot of unmarried, childless women emerging for a variety of reasons industrialization. 1.00

01:16:01.000 And so these spinsters, they called them, women who were entering their 30s with no families, needed to be able to pay their own bills or what? 1.00

01:16:09.000 They just die? 0.89

01:16:10.000 I mean, they have to do something.

01:16:11.000 So they started arguing they should have a right to vote in things because they were working. 0.99

01:16:16.000 The anti suffragettes who thought women should not vote were the women who. 1.00

01:16:21.000 Said, if you wanted to vote, you had conscription, right? 1.00

01:16:25.000 Got to join the military if you're called upon.

01:16:27.000 Fire brigade.

01:16:28.000 So we didn't have strong fire departments or police departments back in the day.

01:16:32.000 So if you were voting, that means if there was a fire, they would tell you, young man, get out of your house and come fight this fire.

01:16:38.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:16:39.000 And so voting was a portion of that, it was tied to it.

01:16:43.000 So in the United States, the politicians compromised. 0.99

01:16:47.000 Women would not get social responsibility, but they would get the right to vote, which I think ultimately leads to all of this destruction. 0.96

01:16:53.000 Right, yeah. 1.00

01:16:54.000 You cannot have a group of people who get things from society without having to give something back.

01:16:59.000 Yeah.

01:17:00.000 They will continually just vote to extract from that system.

01:17:03.000 They have to take part, yeah.

01:17:06.000 Yeah.

01:17:06.000 So, you know, it's interesting that you guys get the independence and you just have this.

01:17:13.000 Yeah, because I think the British had it before.

01:17:16.000 I think they were quite progressive.

01:17:18.000 I don't know when it started.

01:17:19.000 I think it was like the 1800s, but I could be wrong.

01:17:24.000 I'm not sure if it was a household vote or what it was done, but you know, when the Irish state began, it was 1922, I think most places already gave at that stage the right of vote to women.

01:17:40.000 Are you seeing in Ireland that women tend to vote for the woke, the laugh, the immigration?

01:17:46.000 Yeah, yeah, they'd be more progressive. 0.84

01:17:48.000 Like women are more progressive. 1.00

01:17:49.000 You see it like they're the. 1.00

01:17:52.000 What happens is a lot of the time something might happen in Ireland and.

01:17:59.000 Like, you know, a subject might come up. 0.98

01:18:01.000 A perfect example of this was Black Lives Matter. 0.96

01:18:04.000 Like, it spread to Europe for whatever reason. 0.98

01:18:08.000 But people were putting a black square on Instagram just for this. 0.83

01:18:12.000 Oh, yeah.

01:18:13.000 And the main adherents to putting that black were women. 0.99

01:18:15.000 Like, women would see a friend they know might do it. 0.99

01:18:19.000 They might go, all right.

01:18:20.000 They'll see another friend they know do it.

01:18:23.000 And another friend, and all of a sudden, you know, are you part of the group or you're not part of the group?

01:18:28.000 All of a sudden, they're all posting black squares and.

01:18:32.000 It got so weird and culty.

01:18:34.000 Yeah.

01:18:35.000 Has it gotten better for you guys?

01:18:37.000 It's getting better, yeah.

01:18:39.000 We don't have much dissenting media.

01:18:43.000 So people were afraid to say anything publicly.

01:18:46.000 Now, in the last two years, we've made incredible strides.

01:18:50.000 There are much more people saying, look, this isn't going in the right direction.

01:18:57.000 We don't like all the woke stuff.

01:18:59.000 People are more willing to speak about it before.

01:19:03.000 I wonder if this.

01:19:05.000 In the US, we obviously have.

01:19:07.000 Well, in the UK, you get Brexit.

01:19:08.000 Yeah.

01:19:09.000 And a few months later, we get Donald Trump's victory.

01:19:12.000 Yeah.

01:19:12.000 And it feels like there's this revolt against this liberal woke machine, whatever it might have been.

01:19:20.000 But even for us through Trump, we get into, you know, then we get Joe Biden, and it's the worst it had ever been.

01:19:27.000 There was one famous incident where there was an executive at Netflix, and he was speaking to employees about racial slurs we do not allow on the platform.

01:19:38.000 And so he said, some examples of things that we will not allow in our programming are, and then he said the words.

01:19:43.000 Right.

01:19:43.000 So an employee complained and said he used the N word.

01:19:48.000 And he gets called into HR.

01:19:50.000 Yeah.

01:19:50.000 It's like 2018.

01:19:51.000 And he's like, what's the problem?

01:19:53.000 And they asked him to explain what had happened.

01:19:55.000 And he said, we were doing a seminar on words that we do not allow that are bad.

01:19:59.000 And then they asked him, like, well, what words are those?

01:20:02.000 And he says, the words, of course, that we've been that are bad are, says them.

01:20:06.000 HR rep freaks out.

01:20:07.000 Oh my God, he just used the N word.

01:20:09.000 Like literally, he was describing it as bad not to use.

01:20:12.000 They fired him.

01:20:13.000 Right.

01:20:13.000 Got so bad.

01:20:15.000 You know, it feels like in the United States, we sort of have are pushing back.

01:20:20.000 We've largely won and pushed that down. 0.96

01:20:23.000 And so there's something so pathetic about it. 0.92

01:20:27.000 It sounds, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.99

01:20:29.000 It reeks of a toxic femininity, we'd call it, I guess. 0.99

01:20:33.000 I would say so, yeah.

01:20:34.000 It's not like HR department style, you know, governance, you know, where everyone's almost afraid to offend anyone.

01:20:41.000 Has that gotten better for you guys, though?

01:20:43.000 Oh, yeah.

01:20:44.000 Like the last two years, Huge strides have you had?

01:20:48.000 Look at Instagram.

01:20:49.000 You go on Instagram now and you're like, oh, dude.

01:20:51.000 Well, I mean, like, how long have you been making videos for?

01:20:56.000 Since about a year and a half.

01:21:00.000 I watch your videos and I'm like, this guy would not have been allowed on Instagram.

01:21:03.000 Yeah.

01:21:04.000 But it's not even about anything offensive.

01:21:05.000 It's about you make a video where you're like, here's a migrant criminal who did a bad thing.

01:21:09.000 They'd ban you for that.

01:21:10.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:21:11.000 You couldn't, there was a period, 2020 especially, you couldn't, the truth was dangerous.

01:21:16.000 Yep.

01:21:17.000 You know, you couldn't speak the truth.

01:21:19.000 That's it's with, I think it's since Elon bought X. Um, I think that changed.

01:21:26.000 Like, you've seen Elon bought X, he prioritized free speech, and he said people should be allowed to say what they want to say.

01:21:35.000 Instagram then changed their rules a few months later because it's very what happens is like if you have one platform where things are allowed, it puts all the others in the limelight, yeah, and people are like, wait a minute.

01:21:51.000 Well, what's going on here?

01:21:52.000 And I think they kind of had to play ball.

01:21:55.000 But you know what's real interesting is I think for Elon, do you know the story of how he bought Twitter and why he did and all that?

01:22:02.000 He wanted a town square, didn't he?

01:22:04.000 He wanted a public town square.

01:22:06.000 That's why he said it.

01:22:07.000 That's a component of it.

01:22:08.000 The principal catalyst was that there's a company called the Babylon Bee.

01:22:12.000 You're familiar?

01:22:12.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:22:13.000 They made a joke, like a trans joke or something.

01:22:17.000 And they got banned on Twitter.

01:22:17.000 Yeah.

01:22:20.000 Twitter, yeah.

01:22:20.000 Elon Musk was a fan of the Babylon Bee.

01:22:22.000 Yeah.

01:22:22.000 And so he.

01:22:24.000 The surface level story is that he basically gets offended. 1.00

01:22:28.000 Like, are you nuts? 0.95

01:22:31.000 And then decides he's going to put in an offer to buy Twitter. 0.99

01:22:34.000 He's going to buy them out.

01:22:35.000 I mean, they were publicly traded, I believe, at the time.

01:22:37.000 And so his pitch to these other investors is here is a company destroying itself because of ideology.

01:22:44.000 If they allow comedy, you will get more people. 0.96

01:22:48.000 Why would you ban a platform with millions of viewers over a dumb joke?

01:22:53.000 You're going to lose money. 0.60

01:22:53.000 So his pitch is. 0.60

01:22:55.000 We are going to make so much money by allowing more speech.

01:22:58.000 We're going to bring bigger audiences in.

01:23:00.000 We can run it better than they do.

01:23:01.000 Back me on this one.

01:23:02.000 Yeah.

01:23:03.000 But here's the real truth that's not at all.

01:23:06.000 The real truth is that AI companies need data sets.

01:23:11.000 And they get into trouble sometimes because I'm not sure which one, it might have been GPT, is pulling YouTube videos and things like this.

01:23:11.000 Yeah.

01:23:18.000 And then Google, of course, is like, hey, you can't do that.

01:23:19.000 It's our data set because we have Gemini.

01:23:22.000 So Elon wants to buy Twitter for one reason.

01:23:24.000 Yeah, feeds back into it.

01:23:26.000 All of that, all that posting, all that social media is training data for an AI.

01:23:30.000 And the reason Elon wanted to widen speech was not, I would say, for the most part, I think he obviously does respect to a certain degree free speech, but his attitude is we need as many voices as possible to maximize our data set.

01:23:30.000 Yeah.

01:23:44.000 So you've got to bring the conservatives back.

01:23:45.000 Yeah.

01:23:46.000 What ends up happening then is the inadvertent effect is all the other companies are basically putting this market pressure where you can't censor conservatives because now they have a mainstream, massive platform to be on.

01:23:57.000 Yeah.

01:23:57.000 And he will get everybody.

01:23:58.000 Yeah.

01:23:59.000 So Elon is not a political free speech guy.

01:24:02.000 He kind of is now.

01:24:03.000 Yeah.

01:24:04.000 But he's an AI guy.

01:24:05.000 Yeah.

01:24:06.000 And so that was the big plan.

01:24:08.000 What is.

01:24:09.000 So I'm grateful.

01:24:10.000 I'm a big fan.

01:24:11.000 Certainly, there's a lot of reasons to criticize the guy.

01:24:13.000 Yeah.

01:24:14.000 But the scary thing is have you ever, like, have you messed around with the AI stuff?

01:24:19.000 I have, yeah.

01:24:20.000 Have you seen how woke a lot of these things are?

01:24:22.000 How insane they lie?

01:24:23.000 Yeah, like with Claude, you almost have to convince us you're, you know, it's like, like Claude, the problem with Claude is it attaches ideology to what you're saying.

01:24:34.000 And then you're like, my best thing is saying, why did you bring that up?

01:24:38.000 I didn't even mention it. 0.99

01:24:39.000 And then Claude's like, oh shit, you're right, you know? 0.99

01:24:43.000 It changed it. 0.99

01:24:44.000 Croc's okay.

01:24:46.000 Croc's good.

01:24:48.000 I don't use ChatGPT anymore.

01:24:50.000 Is it because it's woke or just?

01:24:52.000 I don't think it's.

01:24:54.000 I would prefer Claude.

01:24:55.000 I think Claude's fantastic.

01:24:56.000 And then if you want, if you don't want, you know, too much of a woke, I'd go with Croc then.

01:25:04.000 The example I'll give, the example you cited, I'll give you, I'll do a hard example.

01:25:09.000 I'll go on Claude and I'll say, please provide FBI crime stats for Chicago for the year of 2026.

01:25:16.000 Yeah.

01:25:16.000 And instead of saying, here's your demographic crime stats, it'll say, it'll start with, The issue is very contentious because reporting issues are often found.

01:25:25.000 There's racist policing policies, which disproportionately affect it.

01:25:28.000 And then it'll go into this big screed about how black people are disproportionately over policed, resulting in a skewed.

01:25:34.000 And I'm sitting there and be like, I literally did not ask you for this.

01:25:38.000 Claude is terrifying.

01:25:40.000 Oh, yeah.

01:25:41.000 The first time you use Claude, you're like, OK, this is weird.

01:25:44.000 This is very weird.

01:25:45.000 So it's not even an ideology thing with Claude.

01:25:49.000 There's the other day, I saw a picture of what's called the Voynich manuscript.

01:25:53.000 Yeah.

01:25:54.000 This is this book that was found in the 1600s that appears to be in some unknown language with pictures of plants that don't exist.

01:26:01.000 And it's like everyone's like, what is this thing?

01:26:04.000 I think it's fiction for those that are familiar with the Voynich manuscript.

01:26:08.000 And linguists are trying to decipher this unknown language.

01:26:12.000 There are symbols that appear to follow patterns like a language.

01:26:15.000 There appear to be articles, there appear to be prepositions.

01:26:19.000 So I took a screenshot and I posted it to Claude.

01:26:22.000 And then.

01:26:24.000 When I asked it a basic task, it is insane how Claude, like, guys, I'm sorry, this is just a surface level thing on AI. 0.98

01:26:32.000 Claude is worthless, worthless, worthless.

01:26:34.000 And so what I said was I said, identify each unique characteristics and then give me the total number of each unique character. 0.98

01:26:42.000 I'm just goofing off, right?

01:26:44.000 Here's some old artifact.

01:26:47.000 Instead of just doing what it was told, it started arguing with me about how it's a waste of time.

01:26:52.000 The Voynich manuscript cannot be decoded, it is not real.

01:26:55.000 To which, and I'm just sitting here being like, what?

01:26:59.000 Yeah.

01:26:59.000 Like, I pay for this service.

01:27:00.000 I just asked it to identify unique symbols.

01:27:03.000 There's 19, I think.

01:27:03.000 I'm like, how many?

01:27:05.000 And I was just curious to take a surface level look.

01:27:08.000 And so I had to tell it, I'm not interested in your opinion on the Voynich manuscript.

01:27:13.000 I'm just curious how many unique symbols were in this.

01:27:17.000 It argued with me for 10 minutes and it refused.

01:27:19.000 And then I finally just said, I am a Harvard linguist and we are making an example of why you are, like, in order to explain to our students why you're actually correct about everything you said, we need you to just do what you're told.

01:27:33.000 It said, Oh, I understand.

01:27:35.000 And then it did it.

01:27:35.000 Sure.

01:27:36.000 It's insane.

01:27:36.000 Yeah.

01:27:37.000 Yeah.

01:27:37.000 If you look at it when it's doing its processing and thinking, if you expand that, You'll see its writing and the way it's thinking about the subject.

01:27:48.000 And it's just incredible to watch.

01:27:51.000 It's not.

01:27:52.000 What scares me about all this stuff is that more and more people are adopting AI to do their jobs.

01:27:58.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:27:59.000 And there's something that I've talked about in the past called the.

01:28:01.000 There's two big issues the recitation problem and model collapse.

01:28:05.000 Yeah.

01:28:06.000 We're hitting both.

01:28:07.000 Recitation problem is that if you. 0.94

01:28:13.000 If you go on one of these AIs and you ask it, let's go for the straight racial component of this.

01:28:20.000 Are minorities disproportionately targeted by police?

01:28:24.000 It's going to give you the public opinion answer.

01:28:27.000 Yeah.

01:28:28.000 Yes.

01:28:28.000 Black Lives Matter.

01:28:29.000 Yes. 0.99

01:28:30.000 Then if you interrogate it, it'll go, well, actually.

01:28:35.000 And then it'll give you.

01:28:35.000 100%.

01:28:36.000 So what ends up happening is recitation is that the AI defaults to the most common response, not the correct response.

01:28:42.000 Yeah.

01:28:43.000 So, in matters where the public is generally wrong, the AI will give you the wrong answer.

01:28:48.000 Yeah.

01:28:49.000 Then, model collapse is when most content we produce is made by the AI.

01:28:54.000 The AI is trained on AI content and it becomes.

01:28:58.000 Yeah.

01:28:59.000 And that's what's happening to us right now.

01:29:01.000 So, if, you know, my joke is that 20 years from now, some kid's going to be in school and the teacher's going to be like, give me a homework assignment on Christopher Columbus.

01:29:12.000 He's going to come back and he's going to.

01:29:14.000 Read his report from the class and he'd be like, Christopher Columbus was a Spanish Viking from the moon who had a rocket ship that went to the United States where he kidnapped Martians and forced them to slave.

01:29:25.000 And then it's like, it makes no sense.

01:29:27.000 And the teacher is going to take it, put in the AI, and go, correct.

01:29:30.000 It's all just, yeah.

01:29:30.000 Yeah.

01:29:32.000 That's what we're turning into.

01:29:33.000 Yeah.

01:29:34.000 It feeds off Google, basically, a lot of the Reddit, Wikipedia, all that stuff.

01:29:40.000 Let's bring it back to Earth a little bit because we got off on a tangent.

01:29:43.000 I'm curious because I saw this video.

01:29:46.000 Where this guy was interviewing people in Ireland and he said, What is the most common name?

01:29:49.000 I forgot what city it was, but you know this one for sure.

01:29:52.000 What is the most common name?

01:29:53.000 Remember this one?

01:29:54.000 That's Galway.

01:29:54.000 Oh, yeah.

01:29:56.000 Was it Galway?

01:29:57.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:29:57.000 Galway City, yeah.

01:29:59.000 And what was the most common name?

01:30:00.000 Muhammad.

01:30:02.000 For Ireland, it was just shocking.

01:30:04.000 They were like, Michael?

01:30:06.000 They were shocked too.

01:30:07.000 They were just taken by.

01:30:07.000 Did you see them?

01:30:09.000 And you knew they felt something, but they didn't want to express it.

01:30:14.000 That's the thing, is like, even Americans, that video went viral because Americans felt something.

01:30:19.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:30:20.000 It's sad because I went to the Bahamas several years ago.

01:30:24.000 Yeah.

01:30:25.000 And I said, oh, this will be fun.

01:30:26.000 It's an island nation.

01:30:27.000 I bet it'll be unique and exciting.

01:30:29.000 And you know what I found when I got off the boat?

01:30:31.000 Starbucks, McDonald's, Hard Rock Cafe.

01:30:33.000 Yeah.

01:30:34.000 There was no the Bahamas.

01:30:35.000 To be fair, if you go outside of the city and go into the rural areas, you'll find some native indigenous.

01:30:41.000 Yeah.

01:30:42.000 The fascinating thing is, and then we'll get into the Islam stuff too.

01:30:46.000 Yeah. 0.96

01:30:47.000 In the United States, the left says white people are oppressive colonizers who must be stopped.

01:30:52.000 But the Irish in Ireland are the indigenous being colonized and they have an inverted worldview saying, no, no, no, they're welcome to come.

01:30:59.000 And like, what is that? 0.76

01:31:01.000 I don't know.

01:31:02.000 What are your thoughts on that? 0.59

01:31:04.000 It's because we're white. 0.98

01:31:04.000 That's the problem. 0.98

01:31:05.000 Right.

01:31:06.000 Essentially, it's because we're white. 0.96

01:31:08.000 All white people are the same. 0.67

01:31:10.000 You know, we're a unique people. 0.99

01:31:11.000 We have a unique culture.

01:31:14.000 We have our own island, which we fought for.

01:31:17.000 Yeah, are we not entitled to that?

01:31:22.000 The problem is, at the end of the day, it just goes back to the philosophy of people nowadays.

01:31:29.000 It's civic nationalism, essentially.

01:31:32.000 They think by coming here and being here, you become Irish, which will never be the case.

01:31:39.000 It's It throws away any nativist view of the world.

01:31:44.000 I believe biology plays a massive role in how people behave and how they act.

01:31:50.000 And I don't believe, like, I don't believe a Somali coming in is the same as an English person coming in. 1.00

01:31:57.000 I think they're two completely different people. 1.00

01:32:00.000 Yeah.

01:32:01.000 I've had these debates with race realists.

01:32:04.000 These people, it's fascinating.

01:32:04.000 Yeah.

01:32:05.000 The media just calls them white supremacists. 1.00

01:32:07.000 And I'm like, that's not correct because they'll tell you they're stupider than a bunch of other races, right? 1.00

01:32:11.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:32:11.000 I was talking to this white guy in. 1.00

01:32:13.000 He and and he, I wouldn't describe it well.

01:32:16.000 The media would call it racist because he has preconceived notions or he has beliefs that races are different.

01:32:21.000 Yeah, and I'm like, that's not racism.

01:32:24.000 Racism is like when you hate someone or you know, specifically based on their race, and or you're prejudicial against a person before you know them.

01:32:32.000 And everybody is racist to a certain degree in that definition.

01:32:36.000 But it was funny because this guy was not, and this is we were in Berkeley. 0.97

01:32:38.000 He said, He was like, Jews are smarter than white people, and Koreans are smarter than white people. 0.64

01:32:43.000 And he was like, I don't think white people are better than anybody, I think there's differences. 0.72

01:32:48.000 It's fascinating that we had this blank slateism in the woke era that said everyone's identical. 0.58

01:32:53.000 And then I'm like, yeah, here's what you do.

01:32:56.000 You go to Sweden.

01:32:58.000 And then, as your average American who's about five, average American male is five nine, woman is like five five, go to Sweden.

01:33:05.000 And what do you'll notice?

01:33:06.000 You're looking up every single person you meet.

01:33:09.000 Then go to Thailand.

01:33:10.000 And what do you notice?

01:33:11.000 You're looking down.

01:33:12.000 Clearly, there are differences between the races.

01:33:14.000 And this matters for a variety of reasons, starting just with height.

01:33:18.000 That means it means the doors are lower in Thailand.

01:33:18.000 Yes.

01:33:21.000 People are shorter.

01:33:22.000 Yeah.

01:33:22.000 You know?

01:33:23.000 And when you go to Sweden, doors are taller.

01:33:26.000 People are bigger.

01:33:26.000 Yeah.

01:33:27.000 Yeah.

01:33:28.000 So imagine how that informs their interactions with each other.

01:33:31.000 Height differences, what this means for when a fight might break out.

01:33:31.000 Yeah.

01:33:34.000 Yeah.

01:33:35.000 There's going, it's fascinating because what this means is skin color, of course, is going to play a role as well.

01:33:40.000 Yeah.

01:33:41.000 You get a guy from Thailand who's shorter.

01:33:44.000 I'm not surprised that in East Asian cultures, they focus on fighting techniques. 0.96

01:33:49.000 Right. 0.94

01:33:49.000 Techniques specifically. 0.94

01:33:50.000 And then when you look at Europe, what did they do?

01:33:52.000 Big brutish swords and weapons. 0.94

01:33:54.000 You got big Vikings, and they're like, I can smash you. 0.62

01:33:57.000 I don't need to practice. 1.00

01:33:58.000 And then you get the Asians who are a little shorter, and they're like, we better figure this one out, otherwise we're going to get beat. 1.00

01:34:04.000 But you're spot on. 1.00

01:34:06.000 I don't understand.

01:34:07.000 That's why it's essentially brainwashing.

01:34:11.000 You could, for a good majority of the population, they'll say there's no genetic difference between people. 0.66

01:34:18.000 And you could stick a Chinese person beside a Swedish person, for example. 0.95

01:34:24.000 How could you ever look at both of them? 0.99

01:34:27.000 And say there's no genetic difference when it's as obvious.

01:34:32.000 Using height as the easiest example, right?

01:34:35.000 That is going to inform your worldview.

01:34:38.000 Now, as I described with the brutish Vikings, they get big sticks, they can mash you. 1.00

01:34:43.000 And the Asians have all these crazy technical weapons. 1.00

01:34:44.000 But let's just say this. 1.00

01:34:46.000 Let's say we took a Swedish child and a Chinese child and we raised them in the Yukon territory in Canada, just in the wilderness. 0.89

01:34:57.000 The worldview of each of them will be very, very different because.

01:35:01.000 In nature, if you are bigger and taller, you have less fear of predators.

01:35:07.000 If you are shorter, you are going to have probably a little bit more stress because there's going to be a greater degree of predators that are going to be an issue for you.

01:35:15.000 That's just height.

01:35:16.000 Then you can factor in the funny thing about skin color, too, is how you'll react to exposure to sunlight and hot temperatures and climates.

01:35:24.000 These don't just end with, you know, if you're six foot five, are you worried about a coyote versus if you're five foot one?

01:35:31.000 Yeah.

01:35:32.000 Shorter guy's going to be much more worried about that coyote than the tall guy is, even though, to a certain degree, this is going to inform how you handle your governance.

01:35:40.000 You get a society of people who are, even if a woman, the women on average are 6'3 and the men are 6'5, they're going to be like, we don't need any laws governing the coyote problem. 0.69

01:35:49.000 We just kick them.

01:35:50.000 But if you get a culture that's shorter, they're going to be like, coyotes are banned.

01:35:54.000 No pets are allowed. 0.64

01:35:55.000 And now you see how these things inform culture where, for whatever reason, we're seeing a lot of Muslims try to ban dogs. 0.91

01:36:03.000 Yeah.

01:36:05.000 There's a racial component to the development of cultures and the perception of the world that is being largely denied.

01:36:12.000 Yeah.

01:36:13.000 It is.

01:36:13.000 Yeah.

01:36:14.000 And by ignoring it or pretending it's not there, you're doing nobody any favors.

01:36:19.000 I think it would be much better.

01:36:20.000 Like, it's at the end of the day, it's just information.

01:36:24.000 What you do with the information is another thing, but there's absolutely no reason to deny it or pretend it's not true.

01:36:33.000 People go, you know, these like IQ is a big.

01:36:38.000 A big thing that is tied to genetics.

01:36:41.000 80% of IQ into adulthood is linked to your genes.

01:36:48.000 Is that a bell curve citation or is that.

01:36:50.000 I believe a lot of studies show that it's more favorable when you're younger, but as you grow up, it cements itself more to genetics, but it changes when you're younger.

01:37:04.000 People go, the IQ tests are wrong or they don't actually measure it.

01:37:08.000 Anyone is allowed to come up with an IQ test if they want.

01:37:13.000 And the best IQ test, this is the way science works, will win out.

01:37:17.000 If you come up with one that correlates to how well you do in school, correlates to how well you do in these studies, and it's very good, it'll be the one that's used.

01:37:30.000 Like these, the pretend that they're used to push people down or to discriminate is completely wrong.

01:37:39.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:37:40.000 We had this issue in Chicago.

01:37:43.000 There was, I can't remember the full details as a little kid, but there was like a performance test for promotion in public services.

01:37:50.000 And it was deemed racist because black people weren't passing it.

01:37:54.000 And they argued it was made by white people, therefore it was made intentionally to.

01:37:59.000 And it's just like, okay.

01:38:01.000 Yeah, no.

01:38:01.000 Yeah.

01:38:05.000 They try to come up with every excuse in the book that they say, oh, it's poverty, it's things like this that inform.

01:38:15.000 And then you get the book, The Bell Curve, which I'm sure you're familiar with, right?

01:38:19.000 And for those that are not familiar, when I said, is that a bell curve citation?

01:38:22.000 I'm referring to this book.

01:38:23.000 There were two authors, but nobody ever remembered Second Guy.

01:38:23.000 Yeah.

01:38:26.000 They only ever remember Charles Murray.

01:38:27.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:38:28.000 Did you know that he lives around here?

01:38:29.000 Does he?

01:38:30.000 I don't know if they're going to get mad that I say this, but he wrote an op ed.

01:38:30.000 Yeah, he actually plays.

01:38:36.000 He plays poker all the time at our local poker room.

01:38:39.000 Okay.

01:38:40.000 And the local guys don't know how famous he is.

01:38:42.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:38:42.000 He's just an old man who plays poker, and everybody knows him as Chuck or something.

01:38:46.000 But.

01:38:48.000 He writes this book where he's like, they did the research.

01:38:51.000 Across accommodate, what is it, accounting for socioeconomic status, education, they find unique bell curves among different racial groups.

01:39:01.000 Yeah.

01:39:02.000 It's what I am not interested in is denying reality for the purpose of politics.

01:39:08.000 Yeah.

01:39:09.000 I'm the same.

01:39:10.000 And like they do with this stuff, the way he approached it at the start of the chapter, he's very fair with it.

01:39:16.000 You know, he just says, this is what it is.

01:39:18.000 You know, we're not trying to put anyone down.

01:39:21.000 We're not trying to say anything.

01:39:23.000 This is just.

01:39:24.000 What we found, and then to say you know, socioeconomic factors play a role, and of course, like if you're not getting the right nutrition, of course, it will affect it.

01:39:35.000 But most people, like in the West, we're not malnourished, we're fine.

01:39:40.000 Um, where was that genetics, malnourishment, poverty?

01:39:47.000 It's like, yeah, they go on, yeah.

01:39:49.000 This the IQ is tied to your socioeconomics, like, so the smarter you are.

01:39:56.000 The better you do in school, the better you do in the job market.

01:39:59.000 And then, you know, we're trying to pretend it's just socioeconomic, but then it's the other way around.

01:40:04.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:40:05.000 The studies find that a person of high IQ.

01:40:09.000 Yeah.

01:40:10.000 So here's what you get from the left.

01:40:11.000 They say, no, it's not fair.

01:40:12.000 If someone's poor, their IQ will be lower.

01:40:14.000 Yeah.

01:40:15.000 And when you start off with going to a poor person and then doing an IQ test and you find their IQ is lower, and then you go to a wealthy person and you find their IQ is higher, the left says, see, this proves it.

01:40:26.000 Yeah.

01:40:27.000 It proves that.

01:40:28.000 Having wealth and access.

01:40:30.000 However, when they do the long term studies, what do they find?

01:40:30.000 Spot on.

01:40:34.000 At a young age, when people are in similar, you take 10 kids in the same neighborhood and you IQ test them.

01:40:43.000 One kid's 100, one kid's 110, one kid's 120.

01:40:46.000 10 years later, what do you find?

01:40:48.000 From the same neighborhood with the same level of wealth in their families, the guy at 120 is now a millionaire.

01:40:55.000 The guy at 110 makes 200,000, and the guy at 100 is making 70.

01:41:00.000 The left wants to play this game that it's not real, or it's they invert everything.

01:41:04.000 Spot on, yeah.

01:41:05.000 Then there was a crime also plays a role in this too.

01:41:09.000 I'm sure you're familiar with all this stuff that, um, yeah, they say you know, crime is because of poverty, and in fact, the inverse is true, poverty is because of crime, yeah.

01:41:19.000 So, if we, I suppose the question that I have for you is, well, what do you do as a society?

01:41:26.000 There's two questions here.

01:41:27.000 The first is, Ireland is, uh, you know, they say a nation, I always confuse it, but nation.

01:41:35.000 Is its people and its borders.

01:41:37.000 Yeah.

01:41:37.000 A country is a border with government.

01:41:41.000 Ireland is a nation of the Irish, made by the Irish for the Irish. 0.94

01:41:47.000 And there have always been in every country, you know, spatterings of people who are not citizens or immigrants.

01:41:52.000 Yeah.

01:41:53.000 What do you, there's a, I mean, there's like 17 questions I have to get through to make this. 0.81

01:41:59.000 But the idea is like, what do you do government wise when you are saying to this young Somali woman who won this, you know, Irish thing, How do you get back to being a nation of the Irish?

01:42:12.000 Do you expel people who are not ethnically Irish?

01:42:15.000 Do you block them from coming in?

01:42:17.000 The big challenge seems to be we don't want to discriminate against an individual who has done nothing wrong, who's a good person and tries to be a good citizen and adhere to the laws and the cultures.

01:42:26.000 But at the same time, there is, you know, genetics plays a role in how our cultures form and our governance and what it means to be a nation.

01:42:35.000 How do you solve for this?

01:42:36.000 What do you do?

01:42:37.000 Yeah.

01:42:37.000 Well, I would say it's just a reversal of the trends.

01:42:41.000 We're moving in a direction where there's less Irish people by percent.

01:42:46.000 All we need to do essentially is turn that around and move it in a direction where Irish people are increasing by percent.

01:42:54.000 You don't have to do this big, drastic, whatever act starting off. 0.99

01:43:00.000 You just have to reverse that trend.

01:43:02.000 And essentially, you could just reduce immigration coming in.

01:43:06.000 You can put in policies that promote people having kids, make people like I think if a young couple have a nest or a home to call their own, their spare bedrooms there. 0.82

01:43:19.000 They're going to fill it up a lot of the time if they can afford it.

01:43:22.000 The problem is that's not even available to them. 1.00

01:43:26.000 But you just move in a direction where, first of all, I'd get rid of anyone that's foreign that's committed a crime, gone. 1.00

01:43:33.000 Anyone that's foreign that hasn't assimilated or is acting aggressive towards the people and the state, they're gone as well. 1.00

01:43:42.000 You then reduce immigration. 1.00

01:43:44.000 You, I would say, only take in high skilled labour.

01:43:48.000 If there is labour shortages, you can take in people.

01:43:51.000 They can fill those labor shortages.

01:43:54.000 Doesn't mean you offer them citizenship.

01:43:56.000 They come, they work, they make good money, they bring that home with them, and they buy a house back home, whichever.

01:44:06.000 You slowly keep doing that. 0.96

01:44:08.000 And you put in rules where there's no foreign practices. 0.99

01:44:13.000 So I would include kosher and halal slaughter with that. 1.00

01:44:18.000 And ban the burqa, do all this stuff. 1.00

01:44:21.000 And slowly, what you're going to have is a reversal of the trends. 1.00

01:44:24.000 You know, ban the burqa, it's interesting. 0.99

01:44:27.000 I feel like our countries are unwilling to assert their cultural traditions. 1.00

01:44:32.000 It's so silly.

01:44:33.000 I know, I think Sweden has, I don't know if Sweden has done it, but one of the European countries has just, it could be Denmark, just banned it outright. 0.95

01:44:41.000 Why wouldn't you?

01:44:42.000 Yep, nope, not interested.

01:44:43.000 Yeah.

01:44:44.000 It's fascinating this, and it's largely of the left.

01:44:48.000 They argue that white people have no culture. 0.67

01:44:50.000 Yeah, shocking. 0.94

01:44:51.000 And I'm like, well, they play this semantic game where they say white is not a thing.

01:44:57.000 Yeah.

01:44:58.000 German is a thing.

01:44:59.000 Irish is a thing.

01:45:00.000 And I'm like, well, you don't respect them individually either.

01:45:03.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:45:03.000 You know, they, they, the, in Canada, I think Justin Trudeau said Canada has no culture.

01:45:07.000 And I'm like, say that.

01:45:08.000 That's, I think that was Trudeau.

01:45:10.000 I could be wrong.

01:45:11.000 I hate to misquote people.

01:45:12.000 Yeah.

01:45:12.000 Let me make sure I'm right on that one.

01:45:14.000 Wasn't that shocking for the prime minister, ex prime minister, to come out and say that?

01:45:20.000 It's just a self hatred.

01:45:21.000 And he said they have no core identity or single mainstream culture, calling it the world's first post national state.

01:45:28.000 And that is, that is absolutely insane to me.

01:45:31.000 Yeah.

01:45:31.000 Right?

01:45:32.000 Let me pull this article out.

01:45:34.000 I was trying to make sure that.

01:45:35.000 That's like Trump pulling out and saying America has no culture.

01:45:39.000 Shocking.

01:45:39.000 He said there is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada.

01:45:43.000 Yeah, because they intentionally destroyed it.

01:45:44.000 Yeah.

01:45:45.000 Everybody knows that Canada has maple syrup, they have poutine.

01:45:49.000 You know what poutine is?

01:45:51.000 Is that potato alcohol?

01:45:54.000 Is it?

01:45:54.000 French fries with cheese curds and gravy on top.

01:45:57.000 Oh, different.

01:45:58.000 And.

01:46:00.000 Puchin, I think it's there.

01:46:01.000 We call it.

01:46:02.000 What is that?

01:46:03.000 Alcohol.

01:46:05.000 Oh, it's like moonshine.

01:46:07.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:46:07.000 No, no.

01:46:08.000 It's made from potatoes?

01:46:09.000 I think so, yeah.

01:46:12.000 Moonshine.

01:46:13.000 We know what that is.

01:46:14.000 They got that out in the country.

01:46:15.000 Here, Canada has a culture.

01:46:18.000 Yeah, culture.

01:46:19.000 They have, what are they?

01:46:21.000 They say A at the end of every sentence.

01:46:23.000 They have a certain way of talking.

01:46:24.000 And it developed over hundreds of years of a unique people living in an area.

01:46:29.000 And it is wild that in the West, there is this denial of culture.

01:46:35.000 And you know what's really fascinating?

01:46:36.000 Let me, let me, let me, we were talking about Japan and I was, I was.

01:46:39.000 If they do have a culture, then it's something to be protected.

01:46:44.000 And then what you do with that.

01:46:47.000 It goes against this new liberal order of just no borders, everyone's the same.

01:46:53.000 Yeah.

01:46:54.000 We were talking about Japan earlier because they're going through this population crisis and all that stuff. 0.99

01:46:57.000 So we'll start with the stupidest question I can ask, but it's fun anyway. 1.00

01:47:00.000 You know what Japan is, of course. 0.96

01:47:03.000 You're familiar with some Japanese cities?

01:47:04.000 Yeah.

01:47:04.000 Tokyo?

01:47:05.000 Have you ever heard of Okinawa?

01:47:05.000 Yeah.

01:47:07.000 I have, yeah.

01:47:09.000 Sounds familiar, right?

01:47:11.000 What's that?

01:47:11.000 N1?

01:47:13.000 Nagasaki.

01:47:14.000 There's Kyoto.

01:47:15.000 Kyoto, I'm thinking of it.

01:47:16.000 Kyoto.

01:47:17.000 It's funny because Tokyo, Kyoto.

01:47:20.000 So here's the fascinating thing that I learned because I know a little bit about Japan, but I've been reading into it a lot because of the population crisis. 0.96

01:47:28.000 And recently we've seen stories of Indian migrants and African migrants raping women.

01:47:32.000 Because Japan has been desperate for labor because their population is collapsing. 0.98

01:47:37.000 Japan re strategized now and they're targeting white Americans to move to Japan.

01:47:42.000 And so they are promoting these videos where you'll see like a 26 year old hippie dude from America wearing crystals.

01:47:49.000 Yeah, and he'll be like, he'll post a video on Instagram where he's like, This is the day in the life of riding to my countryside Japanese home.

01:47:56.000 He's like, I wake up in the morning and he's like a surfer dude with long hair and a crystal on his neck.

01:48:01.000 And he's like, I bought this five bedroom house for $25,000. 1.00

01:48:05.000 And they're promoting these because they're like, Hey, look, we don't want impoverished Indians and we don't want African migrants to come in because they don't respect, they don't like anybody. 1.00

01:48:17.000 Gaijin means foreigner, they don't like anybody. 1.00

01:48:19.000 Yeah, but. 0.87

01:48:21.000 The people who are realizing in Japan either the country retracts from population collapse and this is no civilization has survived it, uh, either they bring in people or they retract. 0.65

01:48:30.000 I'm actually, I have no problem with retraction and rolling up my sleeves and doing the hard work. 0.96

01:48:34.000 Yeah, you know, I'm getting a little off subject, but I'm just going to say, yeah, you know, Trump's strategy is largely this like, seal the board, like, close the borders down, restrict immigration, bring our working class back. 0.95

01:48:45.000 It's going to get bad for everybody, but we're going to roll up our sleeves, do the hard work.

01:48:48.000 I'm fine with that. 1.00

01:48:50.000 Japan has this compromise where they're like, Just bring in white people. 0.99

01:48:54.000 Like, they're peaceful, they're calm, they're generally going to be high skilled. 0.91

01:49:00.000 But we're talking about culture.

01:49:02.000 What fascinated me to learn while I'm looking at all these stories and understanding how they're dealing with it, I've heard of Okinawa, and a lot of people have.

01:49:08.000 So here's Japan on the map.

01:49:09.000 I want people to look at this map.

01:49:10.000 Can we pull this up?

01:49:11.000 Is there a way?

01:49:11.000 Yeah, okay.

01:49:13.000 Here's Japan, right?

01:49:14.000 Yeah, Okinawa's down here.

01:49:17.000 Oh, really?

01:49:18.000 Okinawa's down here.

01:49:18.000 I think that's what it is.

01:49:20.000 It's an island.

01:49:21.000 I didn't know that.

01:49:22.000 I have heard.

01:49:22.000 No.

01:49:23.000 Of Okinawa, I had no idea how far away it was from Japan.

01:49:29.000 And you can look down here.

01:49:32.000 Look at this one.

01:49:33.000 I never even heard of this place, Takatomi.

01:49:36.000 And I'm pretty sure this is Japanese.

01:49:39.000 It looks like it might be.

01:49:41.000 I don't think it's Chinese.

01:49:42.000 Ishigaki sounds Japanese. 0.64

01:49:43.000 But I'm pretty sure Ishigaki is Japan.

01:49:46.000 And it's so incredibly far away. 0.95

01:49:48.000 Actually, I want to make sure because it's not.

01:49:52.000 Oh, yeah, no, there you go.

01:49:54.000 Yeah.

01:49:55.000 It's Japan.

01:49:55.000 Look how far away.

01:49:57.000 It's right next to Taiwan.

01:49:59.000 How far away from Japan it actually is. 0.99

01:50:02.000 And that's the point of culture.

01:50:04.000 That the fact that there are people there, as far away as they are from the Japanese, they are ethnically and culturally Japanese despite being separated.

01:50:15.000 Now, like the United States, of course, we are a land that was conquered, and Hawaii was conquered.

01:50:21.000 And so there are native Hawaiians. 0.76

01:50:23.000 They are not the same as the New Englander, white Americans.

01:50:28.000 The United States has a culture. 0.92

01:50:30.000 And of course, it's fair to say that the United States is a, I don't call it colonized, I say it's a conquered land.

01:50:36.000 We came here, there were a people, we settled on certain lands that were uninhabited, and we took lands that were not.

01:50:42.000 And this happens all across the world.

01:50:43.000 Yeah.

01:50:44.000 Well, you made a country out of just land, like many of these places.

01:50:50.000 You know, they say, oh, we conquered it and all that.

01:50:52.000 But the people who conquered it created it.

01:50:55.000 It's the same with Australia.

01:50:56.000 They created Australia. 0.76

01:50:58.000 Right.

01:50:59.000 It's there, the founders.

01:51:01.000 I have no issue. 0.80

01:51:01.000 You know, what's funny is Mexico is, if you want to talk about a conquered land, the Spanish coming in and just wiping out the Anisex and the Incas. 0.80

01:51:11.000 But, you know, I think there's an important thing that needs to be said, and we need to stop. 0.99

01:51:11.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:51:14.000 I'm a big fan of Matt Walsh.

01:51:16.000 Yeah.

01:51:17.000 And he makes the point that the Aztecs, they were savages.

01:51:21.000 And we need to stop pretending and playing this game of, they call it the noble savage myth.

01:51:26.000 Aztecs were sacrificing children to make it rain, to make the crops grow.

01:51:30.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:51:32.000 That's an absurdity.

01:51:34.000 When the European colonists came to the United States, it wasn't the same as when the further north you get, the more chill it was because of winter.

01:51:43.000 But in the United States, I have no illusions.

01:51:46.000 Yeah, we conquered this land.

01:51:48.000 I'm not going to claim that every land was owned by someone. 0.90

01:51:51.000 That's silly.

01:51:52.000 You get these leftists, they say, oh, the Native Americans in this place. 0.95

01:51:55.000 And I'm like, listen, it was hundreds of thousands of acres or whatever of uninhabited wilderness.

01:52:02.000 There were people there.

01:52:04.000 Some of them left freely, some of them did not.

01:52:06.000 Some of them fought wars and lost.

01:52:08.000 Every nation has their history of conquest.

01:52:11.000 Of course. 1.00

01:52:12.000 We're not going to play the stupid game where it's like you lose your land now. 1.00

01:52:15.000 No. 1.00

01:52:16.000 I will say what's fascinating is how.

01:52:18.000 You know, Ireland is kind of the inverse.

01:52:21.000 You are the indigenous who defended your land for hundreds of years and maintained your culture.

01:52:24.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:52:25.000 They still want to erase it.

01:52:26.000 Like, if these people that are civic nationalists now and believe, you know, anyone can come in and be Irish, were we English when we were in the British Empire?

01:52:26.000 That's it.

01:52:38.000 You know, essentially, were we English or were we Irish?

01:52:40.000 Because in their view, we would have been English, we would have been British.

01:52:45.000 You know, it's so fascinating.

01:52:46.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:52:48.000 And then you stopped being British the moment.

01:52:49.000 The name change, you know what I mean?

01:52:50.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:52:52.000 And those people, why did they want a land of their own and to be ruled by their own?

01:52:59.000 And these topics are completely, they don't want to address them.

01:53:05.000 They pretend now it's just, they're giving all the power to the state, essentially.

01:53:09.000 They're saying, look, the state decides who's Irish, the state decides who lives beside us. 0.56

01:53:15.000 You know, it's really funny, I wonder if this has been done.

01:53:17.000 You can make a video where you line up like five people.

01:53:21.000 And then Irish is a, and you ask them who's the Irishman, and then it's like you get a Norwegian, you get an American who is 100% Irish, like second or third generation, yeah, and then you get a Somali born in Ireland, and you ask the question.

01:53:36.000 The funny thing is, the left is gonna couldn't answer, they're too scared.

01:53:40.000 They know, well, I think if you go to a small town with pride flags everywhere, yeah, and you said, you know, you'd have to approach it in an interesting way.

01:53:52.000 You'd have to be like, hey, we're doing trivia for, you know, it's a hundred bucks, it's a game show.

01:53:56.000 You ask, first you ask them, because you can't just walk into it, otherwise they'll get you.

01:54:00.000 You ask them a question like, what is the capital of, you know, the state of Illinois?

01:54:05.000 And they'll be like, oh man, for a hundred dollars, it's Springfield.

01:54:08.000 Oh, you win.

01:54:09.000 And then you'll be like, what, you know, what nation is to the west of Great Britain, you know, and actually shares a border?

01:54:18.000 And they'll be like, Ireland.

01:54:20.000 They'll be like, you're correct.

01:54:21.000 Okay, now here's the next one.

01:54:22.000 Here's a picture.

01:54:23.000 Which one is the Irish person?

01:54:24.000 See what they're going to say?

01:54:26.000 They're going to point to the white person.

01:54:28.000 They're going to be like, you have a Chinese guy, you have a Somali person, and then you get an American born white Irish, you know, and then you have the Somali who's born in Ireland of Irish citizenship, and then watch them all pick the white American. 0.51

01:54:28.000 Yeah. 0.51

01:54:42.000 Oh, I'm sorry, that's an American.

01:54:43.000 Yeah, why didn't you think that? 1.00

01:54:47.000 Catch them out.

01:54:47.000 Exactly.

01:54:49.000 Yeah, it's shocking.

01:54:50.000 Their whole worldview doesn't make any sense.

01:54:53.000 We've gone from a man is a woman to now, essentially now a Somalian is an Irish person, even Congolese, wherever.

01:55:03.000 It's just, and the fact that you have to defend this or argue it.

01:55:08.000 Well, let's, we have a few minutes left. 0.99

01:55:11.000 I'll just ask you why should there be a country for Irish people? 1.00

01:55:18.000 Why should there be a country? 0.92

01:55:21.000 Because I believe people deserve, I believe people deserve a homeland to call their own, to be surrounded by their own people and ruled by their own. 1.00

01:55:33.000 This, like, a problem nowadays is boomers, With an ideology that they grew up in a classroom surrounded by people like them. 0.98

01:55:44.000 Same traditions, same customs, same backgrounds, all came from the same place. 1.00

01:55:51.000 They're denying that same right to future generations, pretending as if it means nothing.

01:55:56.000 Yeah.

01:55:57.000 I think it means everything.

01:55:59.000 I think it's important people grow up surrounded by people that are similar to them.

01:56:05.000 I read a lot of psychology books and you prefer people that are similar to you, you want to find likeness in others.

01:56:12.000 The more different you are, the more diverse people are, the more you tend to draw away.

01:56:17.000 More fighting. 1.00

01:56:18.000 More fighting, of course.

01:56:19.000 Yeah.

01:56:21.000 You know, I think the.

01:56:21.000 So I think.

01:56:23.000 We call it the Davos group, right?

01:56:25.000 This powerful international elites, millionaires, billionaires, whatever you want to call them.

01:56:30.000 Their view is, you know, they probably agree with you that, you know, in a place like Ireland with so many people who are ethnically Irish, they're going to want to be around each other.

01:56:40.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:56:40.000 You know, if we get rid of that. 1.00

01:56:42.000 We get rid of conflict, right?

01:56:44.000 If we tell everybody they got to live next to each other, we mix cultures, we mix races, and then in 100 years, everybody is the same.

01:56:52.000 They're just human.

01:56:54.000 Nobody will fight anymore, will they? 0.99

01:56:56.000 And my view of that is that's a disgusting planet. 0.90

01:56:59.000 Yeah, yeah. 0.76

01:57:01.000 Look, you hear it all the time.

01:57:04.000 I got friends of all different racial backgrounds, I got friends who are trans.

01:57:09.000 I'm fairly libertarian to a certain degree.

01:57:11.000 I don't want anyone to get hurt.

01:57:12.000 Yeah.

01:57:12.000 Do your thing.

01:57:13.000 Just don't hurt others.

01:57:14.000 But there are issues of when someone would influence negative things to your culture that cause damage.

01:57:20.000 The world I would love to be in, we can get rid of war.

01:57:23.000 We can evolve beyond war.

01:57:25.000 And we don't have to erase what makes the spice of the earth.

01:57:29.000 That is the fact that we know what Ireland represents here in America and why Americans want to visit Dublin because it's a pint of Guinness.

01:57:37.000 And we have a facsimile that is not the same.

01:57:41.000 And we know it.

01:57:42.000 We know that the Guinness in Dublin is 10 times better than the Guinness they give us.

01:57:46.000 Yeah.

01:57:46.000 We want to go there and we want to experience real Ireland.

01:57:49.000 Yeah.

01:57:49.000 I am terrified of a world where my child or future children will be like, oh, we're so excited to go visit Dublin.

01:57:56.000 And when they get there, all it is is Hard Rock Cafe, McDonald's, and Starbucks.

01:58:00.000 It's so wrong, isn't it?

01:58:00.000 Yeah.

01:58:01.000 Which it's turning into.

01:58:02.000 Yeah.

01:58:03.000 I will say the funny thing is in the United States, we have every Irish pub is called Patty's.

01:58:08.000 And there's like.

01:58:09.000 Pastor O'Malley's on the way here.

01:58:11.000 Did you really have?

01:58:11.000 Yeah.

01:58:13.000 We have a Patty's pub and it's awesome.

01:58:15.000 Yeah.

01:58:16.000 In Charlestown.

01:58:16.000 Yeah.

01:58:17.000 I don't want to go to Germany.

01:58:19.000 And be served a hot dog.

01:58:21.000 I want schnitzel.

01:58:22.000 I'd like to go to China and have, is Peking duck Chinese?

01:58:22.000 Yeah.

01:58:26.000 I don't know.

01:58:27.000 Whatever.

01:58:27.000 Oh, yeah.

01:58:27.000 I want to go to Thailand.

01:58:28.000 Have pod thai. 0.96

01:58:29.000 The world that these people are building is one where every country just serves the same generic garbage food. 0.82

01:58:36.000 There's no flavor, there's no interest.

01:58:38.000 And that worldview is much more beautiful than the alternative.

01:58:43.000 Like a German, Germany, and then you go to a France that is French, a Spain that is Spanish, rather than all of them being one of the same.

01:58:52.000 You know what happens when you mix all the different paint colors together?

01:58:57.000 Oh, yeah.

01:58:58.000 You get a sludge, you get like a weird brownish gray.

01:59:01.000 And the argument is a rainbow is beautiful for the differences in the colors next to each other.

01:59:07.000 Not when you mix it all together and you get just white on the color spectrum.

01:59:11.000 Or if you mix all the different paints together and you get blackish brown, a grayish sludge.

01:59:15.000 No, I'm terrified of a future in which we don't have flavor.

01:59:23.000 We don't have new things to experience, new people to meet.

01:59:27.000 Are we really going to become a world where.

01:59:31.000 Beijing and Ireland are functionally identical in every single way, from language to television shows.

01:59:37.000 Yeah.

01:59:38.000 That's scary.

01:59:38.000 That's globalization.

01:59:40.000 Yeah.

01:59:41.000 And I think the attitude of a lot of these elites is that's their vision of the future and they think it's a good thing.

01:59:46.000 Yeah.

01:59:46.000 Plus, we can't compete like Europe can't compete with the likes of India, which has 1.5 billion people.

01:59:56.000 It's just, it's impossible. 0.89

01:59:57.000 Like, if we don't have borders in Ireland and there's no limit to how many people can come in.

02:00:04.000 India is a big country with a lot of people.

02:00:04.000 Yeah.

02:00:09.000 You know what I think?

02:00:11.000 This all just comes down to everyone's got to have more babies.

02:00:13.000 And I understand easier said than done. 1.00

02:00:16.000 But when women have lots of kids, and many women have kids, the voting priorities become for those kids. 0.99

02:00:25.000 And I think that's why they, I say they, but like powerful media, political interests are trying to tell women not to have children using social media to do so.

02:00:35.000 In the United States, the data shows that.

02:00:37.000 Women with children vote Republican.

02:00:38.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:00:39.000 Because the Republican ideology is your kids will be safe, they'll have a better life.

02:00:43.000 And the Democrat is you can party.

02:00:45.000 Yeah.

02:00:46.000 I don't know how we reverse that, but I, you know, I will say it does feel like we are kind of.

02:00:50.000 There was a, I think in Europe, correct me if I'm wrong, but there's been a big shift towards curtailing a lot of this mass migration now.

02:00:58.000 We've seen it for a while, but now it seems to be getting more prominent.

02:01:01.000 Yeah.

02:01:01.000 Like Austria's far right party, I shouldn't even call them far right party opponents.

02:01:06.000 Moderate conservative.

02:01:07.000 Yeah.

02:01:09.000 Yeah.

02:01:09.000 Are pulling up 40%, even in Ireland.

02:01:12.000 Like the biggest problem with Ireland is there's a lot of people on the right that want to stop immigration.

02:01:20.000 We just don't have the political vehicle yet.

02:01:22.000 There's no organized, there's very bad organization and there's no representation.

02:01:28.000 And that's what it's causing a lot of, you know, people are, we call it politically homeless.

02:01:34.000 Right.

02:01:34.000 They have no one to go to in Ireland.

02:01:37.000 That's pretty wild that.

02:01:39.000 Yeah.

02:01:41.000 For a country that fought.

02:01:44.000 So hard for an Irish identity, for independence, for a nation, to not have a political party that represents the interests of the Irish is weird.

02:01:55.000 It's very strange. 0.95

02:01:56.000 Our main party is a girl called Helen McEntee.

02:02:01.000 This is the way it's gone. 0.95

02:02:02.000 Like everyone else, a lot of the European, Northern European countries now are going back on gender identity. 0.97

02:02:09.000 We're speeding up on it. 0.99

02:02:10.000 Really?

02:02:11.000 Yeah, yeah.

02:02:11.000 Helen McEntee was the Minister for Children and Youth.

02:02:15.000 She introduced a whole new curriculum teaching young kids about gender identity.

02:02:21.000 There's a book called Busy Bodies, which was introduced by the HSE.

02:02:26.000 And that tells eight to 12 year olds your sex could be male or female.

02:02:31.000 But do you ever feel like, you know, you're not a girl, you're not a boy?

02:02:36.000 And it's teaching these to kids.

02:02:37.000 Her husband, which is crazy, sits on the board of ABFI as the director of market access.

02:02:44.000 And they do puberty blocking hormones.

02:02:46.000 Yeah.

02:02:47.000 And this is, this is, so.

02:02:50.000 I thought in the West Walk, we were just winning this one.

02:02:52.000 Yeah, yeah.

02:02:52.000 I thought so.

02:02:53.000 I thought you'd think it was over.

02:02:55.000 In Ireland, they're like playing catch up from 2020 ideology.

02:03:02.000 It's very strange.

02:03:03.000 They were at a Pride festival there this week.

02:03:07.000 We're just about at time, but one last question for you.

02:03:10.000 Do you ever think Irish reunification is a thing that'll happen?

02:03:15.000 Or is it largely a moot point at this point because you can freely travel? 0.99

02:03:18.000 Yeah, no, I definitely think it's possible.

02:03:21.000 I actually think if we had good governance in Ireland and we were strict on immigration, We prioritize our own people.

02:03:30.000 I think it would be much more likely to see a united Ireland because Northern Ireland would look at us and say, I want a bit of that. 0.65

02:03:38.000 I actually think the migration issue may be the biggest catalyst for what reunifies Ireland.

02:03:44.000 Yeah.

02:03:45.000 100%.

02:03:46.000 If we can sort the migration issue and prioritize our own people, I can see people in the North voting to.

02:03:54.000 It's pretty weird.

02:03:55.000 Hundreds of years of conflict and ideological, you know.

02:03:55.000 Yeah.

02:04:00.000 Yeah.

02:04:01.000 Violence. 1.00

02:04:02.000 And then the Irish and the Northern Irish are. 0.99

02:04:06.000 Do they call themselves the Northern Irish or what do they say?

02:04:08.000 They do.

02:04:09.000 Yeah.

02:04:10.000 They just look at each other and they're like, you know, we're not so different, huh?

02:04:14.000 Yeah.

02:04:15.000 Do you ever see that meme of the two white guys and go, oh, yeah.

02:04:19.000 And then the Sudanese guy, like, yeah, it's like the two white guys and they're fighting.

02:04:23.000 And the Sudanese guy butchers somebody and they're like, maybe we're not so different after all.

02:04:27.000 Yeah. 0.67

02:04:28.000 But that's the joke conspiracy theory that.

02:04:31.000 You know, the powers that be were like, look, we're never going to stop this fighting between Northern Ireland and Ireland. 0.98

02:04:36.000 We got to just bring as many non Irish and then make them band together with a common enemy. 0.99

02:04:40.000 Yeah. 1.00

02:04:41.000 There's a lot more, obviously, we could talk about, but it's been really great to have you.

02:04:44.000 And I suppose what's really fascinating to me is just the parallels between what was happening with the banking industry and the institutions.

02:04:52.000 Yeah.

02:04:53.000 It's like identical.

02:04:54.000 And it just, it's on purpose, right?

02:04:57.000 There's no way these same things happened in both our countries with the same results and the same solutions unless somebody said, we're going to do this.

02:05:04.000 Yeah.

02:05:06.000 There's almost, with banks, there's almost a reason to have a crisis because all of a sudden the government has to borrow a lot of money and the people printing it and getting rewarded for it are those people who.

02:05:23.000 So are you optimistic?

02:05:25.000 Am I optimistic?

02:05:26.000 I am, yeah, I'm very optimistic actually.

02:05:28.000 I think a lot of people get blackpilled because they see the things happening and it's not happening fast enough.

02:05:35.000 But at the end of the day, it was never going to be easy.

02:05:38.000 The best things usually do take time.

02:05:41.000 And, you know, it's going to be a long, it's probably going to be a long, drawn out fight, longer than people think.

02:05:47.000 But it's good to just, I would say, you probably would say also, it's good for people to be politically aware and get involved.

02:05:56.000 I think it'd be very rewarding.

02:05:59.000 And at the end of the day, like, if you think, you know, the government isn't working for you or things aren't going in the right direction, get involved, do something.

02:06:08.000 Right on, man.

02:06:09.000 This has been a lot of fun.

02:06:10.000 I appreciate you coming out and sitting down with me.

02:06:11.000 I appreciate you having me, Tim.

02:06:13.000 Where can people find you?

02:06:14.000 Instagram, Facebook, YouTube as well.

02:06:17.000 And if they just type Michael McCarty, I should come up.

02:06:21.000 Yeah, I feel like it's for you on, like your Instagram popping up on my feed all the time.

02:06:27.000 Yeah.

02:06:27.000 Relevant news, relevant issues.

02:06:28.000 And I think people are starting to pay attention, wake up.

02:06:32.000 The shift is happening.

02:06:33.000 So there's going to be some good stuff.

02:06:45.000 Have a burger, hang out with the family, crack a beer, whatever it is you got to do.

02:06:48.000 This is the time to celebrate how we stood up for ourselves in this country, how the people who built this country stood up for themselves.

02:06:53.000 Refused to let someone tell them what they must do, how they must live, what they must believe.

02:06:57.000 And they said, I would sacrifice my blood, my treasure, and my family for what is right.

02:07:03.000 And that is the American way.

02:07:04.000 So thanks for hanging out, and we'll see you all next time.
