- 0:15Speaker 2: This is the Yuran Brook Show.
- 0:21Speaker 1: All right, everybody, welcome to you run Brook Show on
- 0:24Speaker 1: this Sunday, November two. I hope everybody's having a great weekend,
- 0:31Speaker 1: A great I had a great week. I know. I
- 0:34Speaker 1: haven't seen you in a while. I have been traveling
- 0:39Speaker 1: around Europe. I am now in Vienna, Vienna, Austria. Yesterday
- 0:44Speaker 1: I did a great event. I just mentioned this.
- 0:47Speaker 2: Yesterday. I good a really good event.
- 0:49Speaker 1: In Oslo, probably about two hundred and fifty young people,
- 0:53Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty five year olds, all.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Members of the youth organization of.
- 1:00Speaker 1: A classical liberal political party in no Way, so yeah,
- 1:07Speaker 1: it was great. I talked about morality of capitalism. There
- 1:11Speaker 1: is video. They did record it, so I'm hoping that
- 1:14Speaker 1: at some point we'll be able to put it up
- 1:17Speaker 1: online and you'll be able to see it. But although
- 1:19Speaker 1: it's my standard, it's the standard raality of capitalism talk.
- 1:28Speaker 2: Not libertarians.
- 1:30Speaker 1: They're called the Progressive Party, but a progressive in no
- 1:34Speaker 1: way is not far left. It's supposedly classical liberal. So yeah,
- 1:41Speaker 1: I mean it was really good. It was a quick
- 1:44Speaker 1: trip in and out of Oslo very very quickly. It
- 1:47Speaker 1: was cold, rainy, and as you can tell, probably from
- 1:51Speaker 1: my voice, I think I'm coming down with something.
- 1:55Speaker 2: So I've been coming down with something.
- 1:56Speaker 1: I've been One of the reasons I haven't done shows,
- 2:00Speaker 1: it's it's just difficult, all right. Anyway, I am in Vienna.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Those of you who are in central Europe, maybe Buddislav
- 2:09Speaker 1: or Vienna or any of the area around here, you
- 2:13Speaker 1: should come tomorrow to my event at the High Institute,
- 2:18Speaker 1: the Austrian Economics Center here in Vienna.
- 2:23Speaker 2: I'm doing an event.
- 2:25Speaker 1: What am I doing an event tomorrow at five o'clock?
- 2:27Speaker 1: I think on left and right, why in a sense,
- 2:31Speaker 1: everybody's turning their backs to capitalism. Why they're both all
- 2:35Speaker 1: of them turning their back to free market.
- 2:37Speaker 2: So it should be an event. Hopefully you guys can
- 2:41Speaker 2: make it.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Some of you can make it if you're in that
- 2:43Speaker 1: part of the world. All right, let's see. I know
- 2:47Speaker 1: there's an iron Rand meet up here in Vienna, so
- 2:53Speaker 1: I think some of them are coming. I don't know
- 2:55Speaker 1: if they're listening live, but I think some of them
- 2:57Speaker 1: are coming, and hopefully others will come as well.
- 3:03Speaker 2: All right, I want to talk about.
- 3:05Speaker 1: I want to talk about what's been going on on
- 3:09Speaker 1: the right in the last few days. It's been pretty
- 3:12Speaker 1: dramatic and I think very revealing, really the complete bankruptcy
- 3:19Speaker 1: of many of the institutions and many of the people
- 3:24Speaker 1: on the American right of conservatism. More broadly, I also
- 3:31Speaker 1: say that, how do I put this nicely, I'll also
- 3:37Speaker 1: say I told you so. I hate being right. Sometimes
- 3:42Speaker 1: when I'm right about negative things or write about something
- 3:46Speaker 1: that is that is a negative outcome. But I've been
- 3:54Speaker 1: telling you since God since twenty fifteen, since I started
- 3:58Speaker 1: the show, really certainly since Donald Trump started running for
- 4:01Speaker 1: president and the old right kind of came out of
- 4:04Speaker 1: their out of their gravels or out of their tunnels
- 4:08Speaker 1: or out of there, whatever you want to call it,
- 4:11Speaker 1: and started poking around. I've told you that they would
- 4:18Speaker 1: win in a sense that they would grow in power
- 4:23Speaker 1: because they facial principal opposition. The Conservatives have nothing to
- 4:29Speaker 1: stand by other than their religion and tradition. And well,
- 4:33Speaker 1: I mean, the tradition of many people in the history
- 4:38Speaker 1: of the United States has been racism, antisemitism. So what tradition,
- 4:46Speaker 1: what tradition are they going to follow? And religion. God,
- 4:51Speaker 1: I mean, Christianity invented anti Semitism. Anti Semitism is primarily
- 4:56Speaker 1: a product of Christianity.
- 5:00Speaker 2: So when the alt right came out.
- 5:04Speaker 1: In twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, and it was really all
- 5:07Speaker 1: over the place on Twitter and everything, everybody says, oh,
- 5:09Speaker 1: it's just a small number of people. It's not that big,
- 5:11Speaker 1: it's not that important, it's not that crucial. It doesn't
- 5:16Speaker 1: represent the mainstream, it doesn't represent conservatism, it doesn't represent
- 5:20Speaker 1: conservative line. And it came out as anti semitic, they
- 5:23Speaker 1: came out as as racist, they came out as white nationalists.
- 5:28Speaker 1: And by the way, let's be very clear, white nationalism
- 5:32Speaker 1: is racism. I got some really amazing comments on the video,
- 5:39Speaker 1: on my video on Nick Foyintis, I mean really some
- 5:42Speaker 1: pretty stunning comments in terms of what people wrote. And yeah,
- 5:50Speaker 1: you know, it's hard, it's hard to it's hard for
- 5:58Speaker 1: me to conceive how.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Bad people's thinking is on these issues.
- 6:10Speaker 1: But the amount of really really bad, I mean just
- 6:14Speaker 1: the comments. I mean, I did it in Nick Foorentis,
- 6:16Speaker 1: and you know, my assumption is that if you listen
- 6:23Speaker 1: to ten minutes of Nick Foentis, you get him you
- 6:26Speaker 1: figure it out, and you can see that he's a
- 6:32Speaker 1: racist and he's an anti semi and now it's true.
- 6:36Speaker 1: He was in his very good behavior with Tucker, so
- 6:39Speaker 1: he only said things like that he admired Stalin, Stalin
- 6:42Speaker 1: Stalin on the show, he says he admires Hitler and
- 6:46Speaker 1: he loves Hitler and he loves Nazis and Attakacross and
- 6:50Speaker 1: he says Stalin, So he's picked the two probably the
- 6:53Speaker 1: most evil political leaders in human history, who killed more
- 6:57Speaker 1: people than anybody in human history. Just it just slaughtered them.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Well mounts the tongue, it's probably up there with them.
- 7:04Speaker 1: And those are the people who admires. So you know,
- 7:12Speaker 1: when I thought, I thought, you know that saying the
- 7:15Speaker 1: Nick Foy intest was a anti semi racist, that would
- 7:18Speaker 1: kind of be obvious. But it's stunning to me kind
- 7:24Speaker 1: of the pushback in the comments, right, calling everyone in
- 7:28Speaker 1: anto semit isn't going to do what you think it is. Yeah,
- 7:30Speaker 1: I know, because it depends to who people who anto Semites.
- 7:34Speaker 1: I guess they don't get excited about that. But I'm
- 7:40Speaker 1: looking for one particular comment I thought was really something
- 7:43Speaker 1: else in terms of uh, you know, saying Nick Fantist
- 7:50Speaker 1: is not a racist. You know, white nationalism is not
- 7:57Speaker 1: is not racist?
- 7:59Speaker 3: Right?
- 8:01Speaker 1: Uh?
- 8:01Speaker 2: And why is Nick for Interest is not a racist?
- 8:03Speaker 1: All he says is he doesn't he doesn't want his
- 8:07Speaker 1: uh he doesn't want his uh grandchildren to be of
- 8:10Speaker 1: mixed race. Uh And and you know.
- 8:14Speaker 2: Some black people agreed with him.
- 8:17Speaker 1: This is to justify Nick for Interest And I'm like, yeah,
- 8:21Speaker 1: that's that's exactly what racism is. And the fact that
- 8:24Speaker 1: blacks are racist too doesn't justify you know, white racist.
- 8:28Speaker 2: Uh. But it's uh, you know he has Here's.
- 8:31Speaker 1: One Joan isn't even trying to hide that he's a
- 8:34Speaker 1: leftist extremist anymore leftist extremists.
- 8:40Speaker 2: You know.
- 8:43Speaker 1: It's you know, if I criticize Nick for Interest and
- 8:47Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson, I'm a leftist cree extremist. I mean, it
- 8:52Speaker 1: really is stunning the number of comments I got under
- 8:57Speaker 1: the Nick foro Interest video that I put out, and uh, the.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Just the horrible and disgusting it really is.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Uh. Anyway, anyway, I'm not gonna find it now.
- 9:15Speaker 2: That's fine.
- 9:16Speaker 1: We don't need it. So uh. As you know Nick
- 9:22Speaker 1: Foytess because I talked about it on a previous show,
- 9:26Speaker 1: Nick Foyantes was not a Corculson and they had a
- 9:28Speaker 1: very respectful and lengthy two hours a discussion. And uh,
- 9:37Speaker 1: you know, I've criticized that cor Coulson for years now,
- 9:43Speaker 1: in particularly over the last couple of years. I think
- 9:45Speaker 1: he's a complete hack. I think he's a he's he's
- 9:49Speaker 1: become a raving anti Semite. He's pro putin, he believes
- 9:56Speaker 1: in in. Uh, I don't know demon that that that
- 10:01Speaker 1: inflict a physical damage on him. The guy's a complete
- 10:06Speaker 1: mystical anti American hack.
- 10:10Speaker 2: That's what he has become.
- 10:13Speaker 1: So he interviews for intance, so just you know, and
- 10:16Speaker 1: he's already interviewed people who think Hitler wasn't that bad
- 10:21Speaker 1: and who think Churchill was wisteron Hitler was really the
- 10:24Speaker 1: bad guy. And you know, he's interviewed a variety of
- 10:29Speaker 1: different people who've expressed just abhorrent points of view, which
- 10:34Speaker 1: he has just rolled with just just he's just nodded
- 10:37Speaker 1: and and he's just asking questions and he's just rolled
- 10:40Speaker 1: with it. He's also interviewed people like Ted Kruz don't
- 10:45Speaker 1: particularly like, but is really good on these issues and
- 10:48Speaker 1: really pushed back on them for the defense of Israel,
- 10:51Speaker 1: for example, and things like that. And it's it's really
- 10:54Speaker 1: stunning to see te Kerkoffson when he's combattive. I he
- 10:58Speaker 1: when he when he really challenges people in an interview
- 11:02Speaker 1: and does a good job as an interview about challenging them,
- 11:06Speaker 1: sometimes stupidly, like when he asked take whose how many
- 11:11Speaker 1: people lived in Iran to show that he was ignorant
- 11:14Speaker 1: of Yuan shouldn't really talk about Ivon. And then he
- 11:22Speaker 1: does interviews with people who just say the most awful,
- 11:25Speaker 1: disgusting things and and somebody wrote in the chat and
- 11:31Speaker 1: I think it's true that he's a nine to eleven
- 11:32Speaker 1: truth and now he's a nine to eleven conspiracy theory
- 11:35Speaker 1: guy as well.
- 11:36Speaker 2: Now him and Dave Harmon.
- 11:38Speaker 1: And when he talks to somebody who, hey, I don't
- 11:43Speaker 1: think somewhat favorably about the Nazis, or somebody like Frantis
- 11:46Speaker 1: who's a rabbit anti semi racist and white nationalist and
- 11:52Speaker 1: h and just gives him softball question after softball question
- 11:55Speaker 1: after softball question, you have to come to the conclusion
- 11:56Speaker 1: that he's somewhat sympathetic views it as really really important
- 12:02Speaker 1: to let these people express their point of view and
- 12:04Speaker 1: get it out there on his platform, which is one
- 12:07Speaker 1: of the biggest platforms in the world right.
- 12:12Speaker 2: Anyway, you know, I criticized that.
- 12:14Speaker 1: A lot of people online criticized it, some old line
- 12:17Speaker 1: conservatives criticized it. And then Kevin Roberts, Kevin Roberts, who
- 12:23Speaker 1: is the CEO of the CEO of the Heritage Foundation
- 12:30Speaker 1: now of the Heritage Foundation, came out with the video
- 12:35Speaker 1: basically defending Tucker.
- 12:41Speaker 2: You know.
- 12:41Speaker 1: He introduces the video by saying, there's being circulation that
- 12:46Speaker 1: there's been speculation that Heritage is distancing itself from Tucker
- 12:51Speaker 1: corson over the past twenty four hours.
- 12:52Speaker 2: This is post interview.
- 12:54Speaker 1: I want to put that to rest right now. Here
- 12:56Speaker 1: are my thoughts. And he has this two and a
- 12:59Speaker 1: half minus a video.
- 13:01Speaker 2: And it's it really is horrific.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Basically says that Heritage will stand by Tucker Colson no
- 13:13Speaker 1: matter what.
- 13:15Speaker 2: The taker. Carson is a.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Friend of the Heritage Foundation, and whatever he does, Heritage
- 13:22Speaker 1: Foundation will stand with him. Ultimately, there is a bigger
- 13:25Speaker 1: enemy out there, and that is.
- 13:28Speaker 2: I wonder if you know, do you know what the
- 13:30Speaker 2: bigger enemy out there is? The left?
- 13:34Speaker 1: And that that is what it's important and given that
- 13:38Speaker 1: Tucker is against the left, they will stand with him.
- 13:43Speaker 1: And he goes into a whole thing about how the
- 13:45Speaker 1: Heritage Foundation hates is very against anti Semitism and and
- 13:49Speaker 1: fights against anti Semitism, and on and on and on,
- 13:52Speaker 1: and he even says that he views and Nick for
- 13:56Speaker 1: Intance's views as apporent but he thinks they need to
- 13:59Speaker 1: be a they need to be platformed, they need to
- 14:03Speaker 1: be spoken of. And he talks about this, you know this,
- 14:11Speaker 1: Uh what do you say? He calls it this h
- 14:17Speaker 1: venomous coalition. Uh, that is that is going out, you
- 14:25Speaker 1: know that that is attacking for interestin Tucker calson, I mean,
- 14:30Speaker 1: who are these people exactly? Maybe Jews. It's just a
- 14:36Speaker 1: horrific statement. And he starts out the whole thing by saying, look,
- 14:42Speaker 1: we support Israel and so on, but we should be
- 14:45Speaker 1: we should be willing to to attack and critique Israel
- 14:50Speaker 1: without being anti Semitic. He declares that Christians can critique
- 14:54Speaker 1: the state of Israel without being anti Semitic. Yeah, nobody
- 14:58Speaker 1: says you can't. I mean, Tucker Cousin in this case
- 15:09Speaker 1: was not under fire for criticizing Israel. He was under
- 15:13Speaker 1: fire for platforming an anti semi a Holocaust denier, a
- 15:21Speaker 1: somebody who supports and thinks Hitler is cool and believes
- 15:29Speaker 1: in white Christian nationalism White Christian nationalism. The question isn't
- 15:36Speaker 1: whether one can criticize Israel or not, although Kevin Robinson
- 15:39Speaker 1: could be the out of it. The question is is
- 15:42Speaker 1: it okay to platform and therefore give access to your
- 15:47Speaker 1: audience of a known let's call him what he is,
- 15:52Speaker 1: a Nazi. It wasn't a debate about Israel. And indeed,
- 15:59Speaker 1: Nick Into his criticism of Jews goes far beyond this
- 16:05Speaker 1: support or perceiving this support of Israel. He hates Jews.
- 16:14Speaker 2: And he is John.
- 16:22Speaker 1: Aren't you tired of asking the same question over and
- 16:25Speaker 1: over and over again. I mean, I appreciate the super chat.
- 16:27Speaker 1: Five dollars is five dollars, and I'll answer it, But
- 16:30Speaker 1: this is like, I mean, clearly, this is the third
- 16:33Speaker 1: or fourth time you've asked this question. Is it your
- 16:37Speaker 1: attempt to get me to say the same thing over
- 16:39Speaker 1: and over again and thus discredit me in front of
- 16:43Speaker 1: some audience that you imagine exists out there that if
- 16:46Speaker 1: they just hear my opinion on this issue, they will
- 16:49Speaker 1: walk away from me. Is that what you're trying to do?
- 16:52Speaker 1: It pretty pathetic if you ask me so. Anyway, the
- 17:01Speaker 1: issue is not Israel. It's not Israel for Nick Fointis,
- 17:05Speaker 1: it's not Israel for Tacko Coulson. Yet Kevin Roberts wants
- 17:09Speaker 1: to make it all about Israel. Roberts defends in this
- 17:16Speaker 1: video Callson against quote the slander of bad actors who
- 17:20Speaker 1: serve someone else's agenda. Oops, we have a problem. Why
- 17:27Speaker 1: is that? Why is it doing that? Give me a second? No,
- 17:51Speaker 1: is that working? I don't know why? Why is that
- 17:58Speaker 1: not working? That's work either?
- 18:06Speaker 2: Interesting?
- 18:10Speaker 1: Ah, all right, they fixed it, all right, I think
- 18:15Speaker 1: this will work. We last video there for a minute.
- 18:21Speaker 1: I apologize. I think that works all right. Yes, that's working.
- 18:31Speaker 1: Who are these bad actors? And what is someone else's agenda?
- 18:35Speaker 1: I mean that is code word for Jews serving Israel's agenda?
- 18:44Speaker 1: I mean otherwise, name the actors and who's someone else's agenda?
- 18:53Speaker 2: Again?
- 18:54Speaker 1: The issue here is should somebody who the Heritage Foundation supports,
- 18:59Speaker 1: supposedly even supports financially. Supposedly The Heritage Foundation buys advertising
- 19:04Speaker 1: on the techer Calson Show. Now advertising on my show sponsorship.
- 19:08Speaker 1: My show is pretty cheap on Techo costs in a
- 19:11Speaker 1: cost seventy five thousand dollars per ad, I guess. And
- 19:14Speaker 1: they've done a lot of ads, so they're spending a
- 19:17Speaker 1: lot of money, a lot of donor money on advertising.
- 19:20Speaker 1: That's supporting Tucker Calson and Teker Colson is platforming this,
- 19:28Speaker 1: you know, horrific monstrosity called Nick Frantis. Is this a
- 19:37Speaker 1: good use of heritage money? The fact that he is
- 19:40Speaker 1: supporting Techer Cosson. No matter what, facing a cancel culture,
- 19:47Speaker 1: the whole cancel culture is. It's a package deal. It's
- 19:50Speaker 1: a meaningless concept in terms of actionable right. Some people
- 19:54Speaker 1: should be canceled, some people should not. The complaints about
- 19:59Speaker 1: cancer culture when it came to the left were not
- 20:02Speaker 1: about the principle of that it's okay to not platform
- 20:07Speaker 1: certain people, it's okay not to platform certain people. We
- 20:09Speaker 1: shouldn't platform people who are evil, but that people were
- 20:16Speaker 1: being canceled for innocent things that they said. People were
- 20:20Speaker 1: being canceled for saying the truth, or at least things
- 20:24Speaker 1: that were within the mainstream weren't crazy. Being a white nationalist,
- 20:31Speaker 1: being an anti Semite is really really really really really.
- 20:35Speaker 2: Good reason to cancel somebody. Anti Semites.
- 20:41Speaker 1: And white nationalists and racists more broadly should be canceled.
- 20:47Speaker 1: They should be de platformed, They should not be given
- 20:50Speaker 1: a platform despout they hatred their lives. So now I
- 21:08Speaker 1: want to give you a context for this, So let
- 21:10Speaker 1: me Yeah, I mean, of course, this is his explanation.
- 21:14Speaker 1: American people expect us to be focused on our political
- 21:16Speaker 1: adversary on the left, not attacking our friends on the right.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Wait a minute, So Tucker Calson is a friend on
- 21:23Speaker 1: the right, Tucker Calson who has.
- 21:30Speaker 2: Spent months.
- 21:32Speaker 1: Attacking Israel and Jews, not the left, but Israel and Jews.
- 21:38Speaker 1: He's your friend on the right, Tucker Calson, the platforms
- 21:41Speaker 1: is Nick Fourentis and Ian Carroll and all kinds of
- 21:44Speaker 1: other uh, you know, horrible despicable anti Americans.
- 21:51Speaker 2: He's your friend.
- 21:56Speaker 4: Uh.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Tucker Colson, by the way, who.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Joined the interview with Nick fisc went in a whole
- 22:01Speaker 1: monologue about the worst people in the world are the
- 22:04Speaker 1: zion Christians and attack people like Mike Cocabe and Ted Cruz,
- 22:08Speaker 1: who are part of the right, I think, and generally
- 22:11Speaker 1: evangelical Christians who support Israel, who.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Tend to be in the coalition on the right.
- 22:15Speaker 1: I think he doesn't spend anywhere yeah, as much time
- 22:19Speaker 1: attacking the left, and yet he is your friend on
- 22:24Speaker 1: the right, in the coalition to attack the left. Now,
- 22:33Speaker 1: I want to give you some context. Right, The Heritage Foundation,
- 22:39Speaker 1: you know, has been historically the bastion of conservatism. The
- 22:45Speaker 1: Heritage Foundation is one of the first think tanks that
- 22:48Speaker 1: was founded, and it has been the policy shop for
- 22:53Speaker 1: conservative presidents for.
- 22:54Speaker 2: Decades and decades.
- 22:58Speaker 1: I think the founder of the Heritage Foundation, the people
- 23:01Speaker 1: who founded it, would be I mean, one of them
- 23:03Speaker 1: at least just passed away over the last couple of years.
- 23:07Speaker 1: I got to meet him and spend a lot of
- 23:08Speaker 1: time with him a few years ago. I think would
- 23:13Speaker 1: be horrified by Kevin Roberts and what he said. I
- 23:16Speaker 1: think would be horrified by Tucker Carlson, would be horrified,
- 23:21Speaker 1: certainly horrified Bennik Foyantis. Now they were not from my perspective,
- 23:26Speaker 1: good guys. The Heritage Foundation was very much established on
- 23:30Speaker 1: a foundation of Christianity, on the foundation of religion as
- 23:36Speaker 1: the basis for America. Heritage Foundation was always compromised when
- 23:43Speaker 1: it came to free market, but it employed a lot
- 23:47Speaker 1: of people who were pretty good, pretty good on farm POLSI,
- 23:49Speaker 1: pretty good on economics. There was some free marketers at
- 23:54Speaker 1: the Heritage Foundation. He trundition I think lost its way.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Really from the beginning, it stood for nothing because it
- 24:03Speaker 1: stood on the.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Foundation of mysticism.
- 24:06Speaker 1: If you stand on the foundation of mysticism, you're not
- 24:08Speaker 1: going anywhere, and you can defend yourself. Ultimately, you can
- 24:14Speaker 1: defend yourself against the Nippoynticis of the world. Christianity is
- 24:20Speaker 1: not a foundation to defend America, to defend reason, to
- 24:26Speaker 1: defend individual rights. So ultimately it's not that hard to
- 24:31Speaker 1: be captured by the Tucker cousins of the world. In
- 24:35Speaker 1: spite of that, I think the founders would be horrified
- 24:37Speaker 1: by Kevin Roberts and what he said. The Heritage Foundation
- 24:42Speaker 1: took a real turn when it basically became an institution
- 24:48Speaker 1: that became part of America, first, became part of Trump's
- 25:00Speaker 1: supported Trump unequivocally. It became it was always anti immigration,
- 25:06Speaker 1: but became even more so became anti capitalism.
- 25:10Speaker 2: The free marketers who worked at Heritage.
- 25:12Speaker 1: Left, and this bastion of conservatism basically became the bastion
- 25:18Speaker 1: of trump Ism, bastion of MAGA, and as deteriorated sense.
- 25:23Speaker 1: And of course I think part of that is well
- 25:25Speaker 1: now it's now it's so committed to MAGA that it's
- 25:30Speaker 1: willing to tolerate and willing to platform and willing to
- 25:34Speaker 1: support people who platform the worst vile, racist, anti semites
- 25:40Speaker 1: that they are out there. How much Trundation is huge.
- 25:46Speaker 1: Its budget is I think one hundred million dollars a
- 25:49Speaker 1: year used to be. I mean, we're talking about an
- 25:51Speaker 1: institution that raises It's a nonprofit organization that raises tens
- 25:56Speaker 1: of millions of dollars every year. I wonder what fundraising
- 26:02Speaker 1: is like right now. Because there's been a big backlash
- 26:06Speaker 1: against this, as you can imagine from those, you know,
- 26:10Speaker 1: Christian evangelicals who are supporters of Israel, Ted Cruz, Mitch
- 26:16Speaker 1: McConnell in the Senate have come out strongly to denounce
- 26:20Speaker 1: Kevin Roberts. Some employees at Heritage have said they find
- 26:26Speaker 1: Kevin Roberts's statement horrific. Former employees of Heritage have come
- 26:31Speaker 1: out and denounced Kevin roberts statement. I mean, even in
- 26:44Speaker 1: itsimate communication.
- 26:46Speaker 2: Kevin Roberts is that have leaked.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Kevin Roberts is trying to defend his position and refuses
- 26:53Speaker 1: to acknowledge the issue, which is the continued partnership of
- 26:56Speaker 1: Heritage with Tucker calls a Stucco, calls was anti American
- 27:00Speaker 1: propaganda from Putin, from Qatara, from Iran, makes fun of
- 27:04Speaker 1: Christians who are from Israel's right to exist slanders Israel
- 27:12Speaker 1: and platforms Nazis and supporters of Nazism, and Heritage Foundation
- 27:17Speaker 1: continues the partnership with him and Kevin Roberts just ignores it,
- 27:21Speaker 1: ignores all of that, pretends it doesn't exist. One wonders,
- 27:24Speaker 1: what does Tuck I have on Kevin or you know
- 27:29Speaker 1: how many people on the Board of Heritage, the new
- 27:31Speaker 1: board of Heritage are now, you know, part of that world,
- 27:39Speaker 1: that world of you know, anti Semitism, that world of
- 27:45Speaker 1: anti Americanism. Supposely there's a staff rebellion. I don't know
- 27:49Speaker 1: if there is at the Heritage Foundation. People are resigning,
- 27:55Speaker 1: people are threatening to resign. The rumors there's a board
- 27:59Speaker 1: meeting yesterday that by a small margin allowed Roberts to
- 28:07Speaker 1: maintain his job, keep his job. But it's not clear
- 28:12Speaker 1: on the other hand, you know staff at the Heritage
- 28:17Speaker 1: Fundation or senior people the Heritage Foundation come out and
- 28:20Speaker 1: said nonsense, there was no board yesterday. There was no
- 28:23Speaker 1: board yesterday. Although a lot of people are calling for
- 28:26Speaker 1: his dismissal, his aid chief of staff, who actually wrote
- 28:33Speaker 1: the text that he read on the video, his comments
- 28:36Speaker 1: and Tucker Carlson and for intance, he is being demoted
- 28:42Speaker 1: and he's been replaced the chief of staff. So Kevin
- 28:45Speaker 1: is blaming him, I guess for the comments that he made.
- 28:52Speaker 1: The video was still up. He hasn't taken it down.
- 28:57Speaker 1: But there seems to be a rebellion insight Heritage. There
- 29:01Speaker 1: seems to be objections to this. This is really shaking
- 29:09Speaker 1: up the conservative movement to the extent that there is
- 29:11Speaker 1: a conservative movement. Yeah, the chief of staff was reassigned, reassigned,
- 29:18Speaker 1: and Kevin Roberts came out with an email announcing announcing this.
- 29:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 29:27Speaker 1: I mean, the reality is that Heritage is subsidizing Tucker Calson.
- 29:33Speaker 1: And it's not just it's not just this latest of
- 29:37Speaker 1: interviewing frantis, what about the Carol interview? What about his
- 29:42Speaker 1: support for putin Heritage used to have a pro American
- 29:46Speaker 1: foreign policy. I guess not anymore. Its relationship with Taker
- 29:49Speaker 1: Culson is more important, or maybe Heritage is onto something.
- 29:54Speaker 1: Heritage realizes that the right its support is I've moved
- 30:02Speaker 1: on from the kind of old line conservatism which supported America,
- 30:07Speaker 1: the funding Fathers, the Constitution, somewhat free markets and things
- 30:12Speaker 1: like that. Even those they're willing to give up. Now
- 30:17Speaker 1: it's much more in line with supporting Putin or you know,
- 30:23Speaker 1: a star Coacosa said the other day, Shariello is not
- 30:25Speaker 1: that bad supporting Katar over supporting Israel. That's a there's
- 30:31Speaker 1: a there's a.
- 30:32Speaker 2: Uh, you know, Kata Kata versus Israel. Who should you support?
- 30:36Speaker 1: That's a tough one. Huh. So it's going to be
- 30:42Speaker 1: really interesting to see how this shakes up. You know,
- 30:48Speaker 1: the Heritage Foundation is part of some kind of consodium
- 30:51Speaker 1: around anti Semitism. Well, some of the other members of
- 30:56Speaker 1: that consodium are leaving saying they will not participate together
- 31:00Speaker 1: that with Heritage around antisemitism when Heritage supports you know,
- 31:06Speaker 1: raving anti Semite in Taco Cassa.
- 31:13Speaker 2: So this is this is going to be interesting.
- 31:17Speaker 1: Right, the right, without any doubt now is becoming antisemitic
- 31:29Speaker 1: and racist. It's Charlottesville one. So we go back to
- 31:34Speaker 1: when when was Charlottesville twenty eighteen, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen. Well,
- 31:39Speaker 1: Charlotte are the people at Charlotteville one the Altright is winning.
- 31:44Speaker 1: They are basically the most energized, most consistent, most principled
- 31:50Speaker 1: force on the right. They couch their anti Semitism as
- 31:57Speaker 1: being anti Israel. But here's an example. Let me see
- 32:01Speaker 1: if I can find this.
- 32:04Speaker 2: This is a question that jd Vance was asked.
- 32:09Speaker 1: Jd Vance was doing a turning point, a kind of
- 32:12Speaker 1: a Q and A at the University Mississippi. Right, this
- 32:15Speaker 1: is the kind of Q and as that Charlie Coke did. Anyway,
- 32:18Speaker 1: jd Vance was stepped in to play Charlie Coke for this,
- 32:23Speaker 1: and so he was there of field questions for students
- 32:25Speaker 1: for nearly an hour.
- 32:26Speaker 2: It's just great good for him.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Every vice president should do this, and you can see,
- 32:31Speaker 1: you can see their true character when they do this.
- 32:34Speaker 1: And a student stepped up and said the following, I'm
- 32:36Speaker 1: a Christian man, and I'm just confused why there's this
- 32:39Speaker 1: notion that we might owe Israel something, or that they
- 32:43Speaker 1: are are greatest ally or that we have to support
- 32:46Speaker 1: this multi hundred billion dollar found aid package to Israel
- 32:50Speaker 1: multi hundred billion dollar following pages or we'll get to
- 32:53Speaker 1: that in a minute. I'm just confused why this idea
- 32:56Speaker 1: has come around concerning the fact that not only does
- 32:59Speaker 1: they religion not agree with ours, but also openly supports
- 33:03Speaker 1: the prosecution of ours. So Jews openly support the prosecution
- 33:07Speaker 1: of Christians. So you can see here how the anti
- 33:11Speaker 1: Semitism Jews support the openly support the prosecution of Christians,
- 33:16Speaker 1: which is complete bs is buried under the lead, Well,
- 33:22Speaker 1: why are we supporting Israel?
- 33:23Speaker 2: Why should we support Israel? What's the point of supporting Israel?
- 33:25Speaker 1: Which is how they constantly hide their ane to Semitism.
- 33:30Speaker 1: I mean, this is a question fundamentally attacking Jews and
- 33:34Speaker 1: Judaism or whatever right and using Israel as an excuse
- 33:39Speaker 1: for that. And what does JD. Van's response? He says,
- 33:46Speaker 1: you know, America First doesn't mean abandoning alliances but leverage
- 33:50Speaker 1: them for US gains. So just because what America first
- 33:53Speaker 1: doesn't mean we shouldn't have allies, you know, he points
- 33:59Speaker 1: out that the United States, it is not a patsy
- 34:01Speaker 1: of Israels and the Trump has used this leverage over
- 34:04Speaker 1: Israel to achieve a Gauza sease fire. He uh, you know,
- 34:09Speaker 1: he thought that it was okay for Christians and Jews
- 34:13Speaker 1: to collaborate, and.
- 34:17Speaker 2: He never said anything about the fact that Jews.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Do not promote the prosecute, persecution and prosecution of Christians.
- 34:27Speaker 1: He never addressed underlying anti Semitism. He let it just stay,
- 34:35Speaker 1: and he is not. He's not confronting it, and he
- 34:42Speaker 1: knows he can't confront it because if he does confront it,
- 34:47Speaker 1: he loses. He loses the Nick Foy Intis crowd, which
- 34:51Speaker 1: is now hundreds of thousands, if not millions strong, and
- 34:56Speaker 1: he needs them if he wants to run for president.
- 34:59Speaker 4: He needs them, all right, fuck?
- 35:39Speaker 1: I mean otherwise named the actors and who's someone else?
- 35:44Speaker 1: Agen Again, the issue here is should somebody who the
- 35:50Speaker 1: Heritage Foundations supports advertising that's supporting Tucker Carson?
- 36:19Speaker 3: Alright, one second, we're looking to see where the stream is.
- 36:24Speaker 3: If there is a stream, God, when is it offline?
- 37:44Speaker 2: All right?
- 37:44Speaker 1: Sorry, those of you on podcasts, give me just a
- 37:48Speaker 1: little bit to see if I can re engage the
- 37:51Speaker 1: stream on YouTube. One second, let's see h h h H.
- 40:43Speaker 2: All right, everybody. Uh, I am back.
- 40:47Speaker 1: I Uh god, I probably spoke for ten minutes without
- 40:51Speaker 1: even realizing that it was frozen and uh we had dropped.
- 40:57Speaker 2: Uh and no, no.
- 40:59Speaker 1: I've got an eck cancel that. I apologize for that.
- 41:03Speaker 1: The the I don't know, hotel WiFi. We didn't pray
- 41:06Speaker 1: enough for the hotel WiFi gods to help us here.
- 41:10Speaker 2: So I'm not sure where it ended.
- 41:13Speaker 1: But let me, let me, let me make a wider point.
- 41:19Speaker 1: I mean, the reality is the reality is that. And
- 41:23Speaker 1: I and by the way, I have captured all your
- 41:25Speaker 1: super chats, so we will we can and will cover
- 41:29Speaker 1: all the super chats. I uh, let me just make
- 41:36Speaker 1: sure that I.
- 41:46Speaker 2: Right.
- 41:46Speaker 1: So we will capture all the sup We have captured
- 41:49Speaker 1: all the super chats, so we think should be fine.
- 41:51Speaker 1: All right, So I apologize for the job. But you know,
- 41:55Speaker 1: it's the hotel. Whatever the hotel did, this is what
- 41:58Speaker 1: it is. It ended when the Heritage Fundation sponsored Tucker.
- 42:06Speaker 1: The Heritage FUNDI sponsor to Tuca, as I said, for
- 42:09Speaker 1: for in spite of the fact that Tucker platforms for interest,
- 42:12Speaker 1: but more than that, inspite of the fact that Tucker
- 42:15Speaker 1: is supportive of Putin you know, it gives us Katari
- 42:19Speaker 1: talking points, is anti American in so many ways, has
- 42:24Speaker 1: abandoned any respect for for for freedom, free markets, anything
- 42:30Speaker 1: like that.
- 42:31Speaker 2: Colton has become a joke, a crazy, nutty joke.
- 42:37Speaker 1: He's expressed anti Semitic, explicit anti semitic views himself. In
- 42:41Speaker 1: addition to and in addition to what to platform unique pointers,
- 42:47Speaker 1: Tucker Cosson has become an embarrassment, and yet Heritage Foundation
- 42:53Speaker 1: sponsors his show through advertising it. Of course, has now
- 42:57Speaker 1: declared explicitly that he is one of them, that he
- 43:00Speaker 1: is their friend, that he will always be part of
- 43:04Speaker 1: the coalition as they fight the left.
- 43:10Speaker 2: But here's the thing that's you know.
- 43:12Speaker 1: Really really important and important to note. The right does
- 43:18Speaker 1: not have the tools to stand up just like the
- 43:21Speaker 1: left does not have the tools to stand up to
- 43:23Speaker 1: their extreme manifestations, if you will. They do not have
- 43:28Speaker 1: the tools to stand up to the racist and anti Semites.
- 43:32Speaker 2: They do not have the tools to.
- 43:35Speaker 1: Stand up to the white nationalists or the white or
- 43:39Speaker 1: the national the Christian Conservatives. Indeed, one of the great,
- 43:45Speaker 1: one of the great, one of the sad things that's
- 43:48Speaker 1: going to come out of the national conservative movement is
- 43:52Speaker 1: that the National Conservative movement was the large extent founded
- 43:55Speaker 1: by an Israeli, a Jew, a conservative Jew, a Yamica
- 43:58Speaker 1: wearing conservative Jew.
- 43:59Speaker 2: But then Razoni who have debated.
- 44:02Speaker 1: And that the National Conservative movement is going to be
- 44:07Speaker 1: a breeding ground for ultimately Christian Conservatives and ultimately anti
- 44:13Speaker 1: semit conservatives. That is, a national conservative movement founded by
- 44:18Speaker 1: an Israeli Jew is going to be a place where
- 44:22Speaker 1: they where Ultimately the worst enemies of Israel and the
- 44:31Speaker 1: worst enemies of Jews are going to be prevalent now
- 44:36Speaker 1: of the right, not the left obviously, but still, I mean,
- 44:40Speaker 1: if the world takes seriously the national conservative agenda, you
- 44:45Speaker 1: will get these nationalists and nationalist governments that ultimately will
- 44:53Speaker 1: turn against the Jews because the Jews don't belong in
- 44:56Speaker 1: those nations.
- 44:58Speaker 2: According to them.
- 45:02Speaker 1: They have no tool to stand up against them. Once
- 45:04Speaker 1: they've accepted Once your own Marazzoni has accepted collectivism, has
- 45:08Speaker 1: accepted tribalism, well he doesn't get to choose which collective wins,
- 45:16Speaker 1: which tribe wins, and what the attitude of that tribe
- 45:19Speaker 1: is towards his own tribe, Jewish tribe. Tribalism. Once tribalism accepted.
- 45:29Speaker 1: You've accepted irrationality. Once tribalism has been accepted, you've accepted
- 45:35Speaker 1: the negation of freedom. And the conservatives Heritage Foundation, certainly
- 45:44Speaker 1: because of because of the Heritage Foundation, you know, has
- 45:55Speaker 1: joined the tribe around Mega and around Trump. It has
- 46:02Speaker 1: nothing original, nothing interesting, nothing of value to really say.
- 46:11Speaker 2: So what is the defense of regular.
- 46:16Speaker 1: Conservatives, of of of of the current conservative movement against
- 46:22Speaker 1: Nick Foyants? And just to be clear, you know, I've
- 46:26Speaker 1: now watched a bunch of Nick Cooins videos. I find
- 46:29Speaker 1: it really weird that any of you find him entertaining
- 46:33Speaker 1: or worthwhile or willing to watch any of his stuff.
- 46:48Speaker 1: He is a slimy monster. He you know, he could,
- 46:57Speaker 1: he could. He has the kind of view that made
- 47:00Speaker 1: Hitler Hitler. He's a Nazi, and yet people tolerate him,
- 47:05Speaker 1: people pursue him. Now, It's true some people are pushing
- 47:12Speaker 1: back against Nick foy inters and te Carcasson, but they
- 47:16Speaker 1: have no leg to stand up. What is the argument
- 47:19Speaker 1: against Oh, they'll call him an anti semi, but they
- 47:23Speaker 1: can't defend individualism. They can't talk about what this country
- 47:27Speaker 1: is really about, what this country actually stands for. I
- 47:32Speaker 1: mean here we have somebody here, you know, nine people,
- 47:36Speaker 1: million people of Israel are the most important thing to
- 47:38Speaker 1: America and Americanism in Yuron's mind. When have I ever
- 47:42Speaker 1: said anything that resembles that I've done whole shows on
- 47:46Speaker 1: what America is and Americanism without mentioning Israel once. Israel's
- 47:52Speaker 1: not important when it comes to discussing the future of America.
- 47:56Speaker 1: What's important is America. It's founding principles they're founding for others.
- 48:01Speaker 1: What's important is the Declaration of Independence. They give amen
- 48:05Speaker 1: a created equal endowed with inalienable rights. The only reason
- 48:18Speaker 1: I talk a lot about Israel is because it's in
- 48:20Speaker 1: the news. I mean, Trump talks about Israel all the time.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Is that because Israel matters to him more than anything else. Right,
- 48:34Speaker 1: I don't need this guy's lying, all right? So there
- 48:52Speaker 1: is no there's no basis for them to defend against
- 48:59Speaker 1: m These white nationalists, these fascists, they have no basis
- 49:09Speaker 1: to do it because they don't understand the foundation on
- 49:12Speaker 1: which this country is built. They cannot talk about individual rights,
- 49:15Speaker 1: they cannot talk about individualism. They certainly do not talk
- 49:18Speaker 1: about capitalism. I mean, there was an interesting exchange the
- 49:27Speaker 1: other Day by J D. E Van's Jad Evans was
- 49:31Speaker 1: filling in for Charlie Cook at a Turning Point USA.
- 49:36Speaker 1: He gets asked the turning Point USA event, he gets
- 49:38Speaker 1: asked the question, here's the question. I'm a Christian man.
- 49:43Speaker 1: Notice how this is always the case. This is the
- 49:47Speaker 1: case with war Beef who is.
- 49:51Speaker 2: Making comments on the chat.
- 49:54Speaker 1: They argue that it's all about Israel, but really what
- 49:57Speaker 1: drives it as hatred of Jews, anti Amotism. So here's
- 50:01Speaker 1: what this young person says. I'm a Christian, Matt, and
- 50:05Speaker 1: I'm just confused why there's the notion that we might
- 50:07Speaker 1: owe Israel something, or that there are greatest ally or
- 50:10Speaker 1: that we have to support this multi hundred billion dollar
- 50:13Speaker 1: foreign a package to Israel. We'll talk about that in
- 50:15Speaker 1: a minute. I'm just confused why this idea has come around,
- 50:19Speaker 1: considering the fact that not only does their religion not
- 50:21Speaker 1: agree with ours, but also openly supports the prosecution of ours,
- 50:27Speaker 1: openly supports the prosecution of Christians. Where is that? Where
- 50:31Speaker 1: is this openly supporting that? Is there any evidence of that?
- 50:36Speaker 1: I mean, clearly antisemitic, clearly driven by hatred of the
- 50:41Speaker 1: Jews and a claim about their religion. Does Stucker Callson
- 50:47Speaker 1: confront sorry, jd Vance confront that. No, he goes into
- 50:53Speaker 1: a whole spiel about we're not beholding to Israel and
- 50:56Speaker 1: America first, doesn't mean we don't have alliances and Israel.
- 51:00Speaker 2: Sometimes he's an ally and sometimes not, and that.
- 51:02Speaker 1: Trump really twisted Nintoniello's arm in order to get this
- 51:06Speaker 1: peace deal.
- 51:07Speaker 2: So Israel does what we tell it to do, and.
- 51:11Speaker 1: You know, and then he argued that there are theological
- 51:14Speaker 1: difference between Christian and Jews, but they don't preclude collaboration
- 51:17Speaker 1: here and there on matters of common concern. Nothing about
- 51:25Speaker 1: Jews persecuting Christians, which is just a fantasy. And you know,
- 51:35Speaker 1: he doesn't want to piss off people. I mean, he
- 51:44Speaker 1: doesn't want to piss off Nick Foynter's supporters. That's what's
- 51:49Speaker 1: driving him, the need to keep them part of the
- 51:55Speaker 1: coalition so that he can get the nomination next time
- 51:58Speaker 1: and they support him. I mean jd Vance can't talk
- 52:03Speaker 1: against them. I mean, he can't even defend his wife. Indeed,
- 52:07Speaker 1: I think in the same Q and A or maybe
- 52:09Speaker 1: it was in another place, I'm not sure. He says
- 52:14Speaker 1: that he's hoping that his wife who's Hindu. I think
- 52:16Speaker 1: she's Hindu, converts to Christianity because Nick Foentis on a
- 52:27Speaker 1: regular basis on the show, goes after JD. Vance and
- 52:30Speaker 1: says that Jadvans is married to a brown woman and
- 52:34Speaker 1: that's not acceptable and he can never be allowed to
- 52:37Speaker 1: be president of the United States because his wife is
- 52:40Speaker 1: not white and she's not a Christian.
- 52:45Speaker 2: So JD.
- 52:45Speaker 1: Vance against wants their peace. Who does he want at peace?
- 52:48Speaker 1: He wants to peace. The worst element that Nick Foentis
- 52:51Speaker 1: and his gropers by telling them, oh, no, no, no,
- 52:56Speaker 1: she's going to become a Christian. Don't worry, she's going
- 52:59Speaker 1: to convert. I mean, basically, Maga relies now on Goiper's
- 53:10Speaker 1: and more and more the Conservative Party, more and more
- 53:16Speaker 1: the Republican Party is going to rely on Nick Foyantes
- 53:21Speaker 1: and is going to be accommodating of Nick Foyenttis's views.
- 53:25Speaker 1: Remember the German Conservatives really pushed back against Hitler for
- 53:35Speaker 1: a while, and they accepted Hitler. They thought he was
- 53:40Speaker 1: a joke, they thought he was repulsive, they thought he
- 53:42Speaker 1: was awful.
- 53:43Speaker 2: They really opposed him.
- 53:45Speaker 1: But it was a marriage of comedy convenience, and they
- 53:50Speaker 1: supported him. Out of convenience. You remember why, because they
- 53:54Speaker 1: had a common enemy. Oh what was the common enemy
- 53:57Speaker 1: with conservatives? And then and and Hitler was the common
- 54:00Speaker 1: hem Oh.
- 54:01Speaker 2: Yes, the left. And of course once they let him in,
- 54:08Speaker 2: he had the energy behind him.
- 54:10Speaker 1: He had young people behind him, he had millions of
- 54:13Speaker 1: followers behind him, he had people who'd marunch in the
- 54:16Speaker 1: streets for him, and soon enough he controlled it. So
- 54:41Speaker 1: I mean, I think the real fear here is basically
- 54:48Speaker 1: the complete takeover of the Republican Party by the Nick
- 54:52Speaker 1: for Inticis of the world. That the Conservatives and the
- 54:55Speaker 1: Republican Party are going to become a party of Christian Conservatives,
- 55:00Speaker 1: white Christian Conservatives, racists and anti Semites and wrapped around
- 55:09Speaker 1: religion and wrapped around a flag. Of course, Nick Fointis
- 55:12Speaker 1: makes his case constantly about it's all about America. First,
- 55:17Speaker 1: he attacks Jews for having dual alliances, because he claims
- 55:22Speaker 1: that Jews all have dual citizenship. Very few Jews have
- 55:28Speaker 1: actual dual citizenship, and lots of people have dual citizenships.
- 55:33Speaker 2: Brits have dual citizenship.
- 55:35Speaker 1: Europeans have many more dual citizenship than Jews do than Israelis,
- 55:42Speaker 1: and yet it's only the Israelis, the Jews dual citizenship
- 55:47Speaker 1: that there's a problem. So I don't know. I don't
- 55:54Speaker 1: know what comes of this country. I don't know what
- 55:57Speaker 1: comes of the Republican Party. We have now the Democratic
- 56:02Speaker 1: Party uh running an anti Semitic uh is Islamist socialist
- 56:09Speaker 1: mayor for New York. And we have the Republican Party
- 56:13Speaker 1: probably running a a uh you know, anti Semitic Christian
- 56:21Speaker 1: Christian nationalist for for for.
- 56:23Speaker 2: Presidents next time in JD. Evans.
- 56:27Speaker 1: And we have the Heritage Foundation, the bastion of old
- 56:30Speaker 1: line conservatism, basically or not basically just endorsing Tucker Carlson,
- 56:36Speaker 1: who then platforms and and in his silence and his
- 56:41Speaker 1: lack of opposition, endorses the worst kind of Nazi supporter
- 56:46Speaker 1: in Nick Foents. By the way, this one's kind of funny,
- 56:51Speaker 1: but Nick Foyents has recently, uh you know, come out
- 56:58Speaker 1: in favor of Gavin Newsom. In he said, if there
- 57:01Speaker 1: was just to give you a sense of this, if
- 57:03Speaker 1: there was an election between Gavin Newsom and JD. Vance,
- 57:09Speaker 1: he and the Gropers who would support Gavin Newsom because
- 57:13Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom is white, his wife is white, his kids
- 57:16Speaker 1: are white, and JD. Van says, a brown wife and
- 57:22Speaker 1: brown kids, and that's not acceptable. That can't be in
- 57:25Speaker 1: the White House. So they're willing to support a leftist
- 57:32Speaker 1: just in name of their name, of their.
- 57:37Speaker 2: Racism.
- 57:41Speaker 1: I think Richard Hanani is right. He says the total
- 57:45Speaker 1: grop pification of the GOP is nearing its completion. You
- 57:49Speaker 1: saw the emails, the text messages of the young Republicans
- 57:54Speaker 1: spouting Nick foyentis like views when talking among themselves.
- 58:01Speaker 2: Why is this happening?
- 58:03Speaker 1: I mean again, because I think old line Republican ideas
- 58:07Speaker 1: kind of went bankrupt with Bush.
- 58:11Speaker 2: They went nowhere.
- 58:12Speaker 1: They were unprinciple, they were completely pragmatic. Trump opened up
- 58:22Speaker 1: this opportunity for the goypers, for racists by declaring so
- 58:27Speaker 1: called America first and then kind of winking and you know,
- 58:33Speaker 1: and the good people on both sides, kind of attitude
- 58:36Speaker 1: towards the worst elements among his supporters and being embraced
- 58:41Speaker 1: by MAGA, which turned into a conspiracy theory, crazy nutty.
- 58:48Speaker 1: You know. I won't call it an ideology because it's
- 58:51Speaker 1: not really an ideology. Trump is legitimized they alt right.
- 58:58Speaker 1: He's legitimized the race is right. He's legitimized all of them.
- 59:02Speaker 1: If somebody like Trump with his character can be supported
- 59:07Speaker 1: by conservatives, think about that. I mean, conservatives supporting a philandering,
- 59:15Speaker 1: you know, just a horrible, lying human being, somebody who's
- 59:24Speaker 1: you know, by conservatives stand has been divorced or three times,
- 59:27Speaker 1: had many affairs, talked about grabbing women by there and
- 59:32Speaker 1: all of that, and conservatives are just yeah, okay, Christian
- 59:35Speaker 1: Conservatives are just like, yeah, fine, we're electing this guy.
- 59:42Speaker 2: They've opened up the door to anybody.
- 59:49Speaker 1: They've opened up the door, you know, Trump by the
- 59:52Speaker 1: Conservatives now willing to tolerate anything as long as they
- 59:54Speaker 1: beat the left. They supported Trump because he could beat
- 59:58Speaker 1: the left. And Nick foytis nick foyintis is anti left,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: at least they think he is. I'm not sure about this.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: Gevin knew some stuff. But Trump has opened up the door.
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: The supporters of Trump had opened up the door. His
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: wink win, everything is okay, don't worry about the racism.
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: Has opened up the door.
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: Charlottesville opened up the door to the worst elements on
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: the right dominating the Republican Party.
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: And that's what you're seeing.
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: You're seeing the slow domination of the Republican Party.
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: They control it.
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: Their hatred of immigrants is now manifest on the streets
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: with ice.
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: The hatred of Jews.
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: Is manifest every week on Tucker Carlson Show. Remember Charlotteville
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: was the as they marched.
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: It was Jews.
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: Jews will not replace us, Jews will not replace us.
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: And yes, Trump did say something out of half, you know,
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: something about the neo Nazis, the horrible.
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: New Nazis out there. But he also said the good
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: people on both sides, which if if.
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: You're not if you're still confused about I did a
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: whole show on it, so find my show on Charlotteville
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: and watch it where I analyze line by line the
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: entire speech by Trump, including his condemnation and including his
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: the nice people. You know, this is this is what
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: has led open up the door to these types. And
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: again there's no defense, there's nothing conservatives can say to
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: defend themselves against this. On the right, they've always been
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: a little racist. Now they're full on racists on the right.
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: They've never really completely trusted the Jews. Now the full
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: on anti semitic on the right. They've never embraced capitalism.
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: Now they're full on statists.
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: On the right.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: They've always endorsed a little bit of Christianity in politics.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: Now they're full on Christian Christian nationalists.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: As I Ran said, when you compromise with evil, only
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: evil gains, only evil wins. And creating a coalition in
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: bringing racist anti Semites into the tent, only they can win,
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: only they can win.
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: And they're winning.
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: They are winning, There's no question about that. There's the
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: voices I see standing up against you know, against this, uh,
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: you know old Lincoln's servatives that a losing losing the
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: big battle. You know, Taker Colson has many many more
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: followers than they Inde Nick Foindess probably has more followers
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: than I don't know, Michael Levin or David Hassani or
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: some of these others. David Assani writes Vance's answers yesterday
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: were despicable. I'm not sure why Jews appraising him. He
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: let a questionnaire, questionnaires vile smear against American Jews go
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: completely unchallenged, only assuring him that Trump didn't let Israel
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: pull pull the US into a world war, as if
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: that's what it wanted. Imagine some dopey kid going off
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: on how the Pope secretly pays off all US politicians
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: to create open border policies and illegal invasions, and then
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: the Vice President tells him not to worry. The President
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: has dashed the Pope's plan. Vanceys Tucker's boy, and everyone
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: understands it, which is why so many of these people
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: won't criticize Tucker. Yep, it's it's pretty bleak. I want
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: to say one thing about this kid's accusation. And you
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: see them for intus, and you see it in Tucker
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: Colson that the US gives is so much money. So
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: let's look at the facts, right, Let's look at the
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: actual facts. The US provides as were worth about three
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: point eight billion dollars in military aid each year, zero
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: economic aid. It used to be thirty years ago that
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: the US gave Israel economic aid. It gives it no
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: economic aid. Three point eight billion in military aid. Around
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: three point three of that billion three point eight is
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: in grants that have to the only way they can
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: use them is to purchase US US weapons, So all
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: that money comes right back to American manufacturers of weapons systems.
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: And another five hundred million is in corporation on missile
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: defense programs. You know the various shields that Israel has,
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: which of course the United States benefits enormously from as
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: it is trying to develop its own missile defense program.
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: It's sharing all the information that Israel has on its
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: experiences with missile defense systems. Now, this is a significant amount.
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: Three pointy billion dollars is nothing to sneeze at. It's
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: just under five percent of total US aid budget military
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: plus economic, and itso point zero six percent of the
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: total federal budget. It's not hundreds of billions of dollars,
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: which is what the kid claimed and JD. Vans never corrected.
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: The US.
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: Just to give your context, the US gives the United
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: Nations fourteen to sixteen billion dollars a year. The United Nations,
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: which is horrifically anti American, gets fourteen to sixteen billion.
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: Israel gets zo point eight. Now, again, the three point
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: three billion is all spent on purchasing American equipment. American equipment.
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: Then Israel uses like F thirty fives. Israel not only
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: users F thirty fives, but it actually makes changes to
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: their thirty fives. It adjusts the F thirty five to
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: its own needs, and then it uses their thirty fives.
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: It puts them into combat.
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: According to I think it's Lockheed Martin that builds the
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: f thirty fives or north of north of I can't
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: remember which one. According to them, the benefit that they
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: get from the fact that Israel uses this plain on
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: a regular basis, it is worth tens of billions of
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: dollars of research and development that they do not have
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: to do because Israel is actually doing it in practice
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: and giving them the data the information.
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: On top of.
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: That, Israel provides the United States with massive intelligence intelligence
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: about terrorist organizations, about Islamist activities, about other countries in
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: the Middle East that the United.
- 1:07:19Speaker 2: States isn't interesting.
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: Various Year's officials have estimated that America, in order to
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: replicate what Israel provides them in terms of intelligence, would
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: have to spend between fifteen to twenty billion dollars a year.
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: So the United States gets back much, much, much, much
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: more than it gives Israel. It's not even close. And
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: yet they keep popping on this. This is the thing
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: that bothers them, which a clear indication that something else
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: is driving this. It's not Israel that really bugs them. Now,
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: let me be very clear, I don't think the United
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: States should give Israel anything. I think Israel would continue
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: to shame intelligence. And I think Israel could afford this
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: three point eight billion. Maybe it's you know, the five
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: hundred million that is co development of the missile defense system.
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: That makes sense, but the three point three billion, the
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: United States should stop giving Israel. Israel doesn't need it.
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: It's a rich country and it should get richer. It
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: needs to get richer. Its own self defense requires it
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: to get richer. But it all should stop giving. I mean,
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: you should stop giving Israel aid. Maybe, you know, hopefully
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: Israel continues to give the intelligence, but more importantly, it
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: will stop being a leverage that the United States can
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: use in Israel. It'll stop being leveraged that anti Semites
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: can use against Israel. You know, I think give Israel
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: a freer hand to determine its own affairs. And I
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: don't believe that America should be handing out money to countries.
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: There's absolutely no reason I think the United State should
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: stop supporting Egypt and Jordan and all the other countries
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: in the Middle East that it sends dollars to more
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: than it sends to Israel, and it gets very little
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: in return for that money, but it's a drop in
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: a bucket, and America gets a big return on that investment.
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: I think it would get a lot of that anyway,
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: because Israel will continue to buy F thirty five, continue
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: to give the manufacture the information they need, I think,
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: will continue to provide the United States with the intelligence support.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: But let's just get rid of this issue. But basically
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: the United States stopping to support financially these rate lyings,
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: there's just it's not necessary. How is it going to
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: get into giving you some quotes from Nick Foyentis, but really,
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: you know it's unnecessary and frantis it talks about Jews
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: being demons that are destroying this country. He advocates killing
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: them all, at least the Jews that are demons. Maybe
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: the Jews that are not demons don't need to be killed.
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: It's not clear. He he thinks Hitler is awesome, that
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: Hitler was right, that the Holocaust never happened. I'm not
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: sure what Hitler is right about if the Holocaust never happened.
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: Because Nick Foyentis agrees that a Holocaust.
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: Should happen, he wants to kill them.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: Now. I mean, this is scum, This is scum. If
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: they have the was come, this is scum. He says. Quote,
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: when we take power, the Jews will be needed to
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: be given the death penalty. I'm formal considered about that
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: than non white people. So say he hates Jews more
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: than he hates black people. In other words, anyway, the
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: idea that you would give this person a stage, that
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: you would introduce him to his audience, that you would
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: not challenge everything that he says. The idea that Tucker
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: Carlson is embraced by people like like the Avitage Foundation.
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: Is this despicable.
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: One last thing I want to say again in the
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: way that Trump supports all this and is supportive of
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: the whole kind of racist, white nationalist agenda. Whether he
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: himself is a racist or not, I do not know,
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: but you know, we know the Miller is even though
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: Miller is Jewish, I guess, but he's supportive of all this.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: The United States declared at the end of last week
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: that it was restricting them out of asylum seekers to
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: the United States the seven five hundred.
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: Now I'm supportive of that.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: I don't think the basis for coming to the United
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: States should be seeking asylum, and I think the basis
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: should be can you get a job?
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: But here's the thing.
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: The one group that the Trump administration explicitly has said
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: a welcome as asylum seekers. The one group that they're
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: encouraging to come to the United States as asylum seekers.
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: One group white South Africans of Afrikaners descent. So we
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: don't want brown people being persecuted by the Venezuelan government,
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: we don't want brown people being persecuted by the communist
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: regime in Cuba. We don't want white people escaping gangs
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: in Guatemala or other places in Latin America. And we
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: don't want black people escaping violence in most of the
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: countries of Africa. We want white people in Africa who
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: supposedly are being being persecuted in South Africa. Whether they
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: are they're not, it's not the point. It's we only
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: want white people. That is the one group the asylum
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: that we're happy to grant asylum to. And so most
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: of seventy five hundred that have now been approved for asylum,
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: most of them are going to be South Africans Africanas.
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: Now it's not clear, it's not clear they're going to
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: be that many. That many Africanis want to leave South Africa.
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: But that's the one group that he's opened up. If
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: that's not just again appeasing the white nationalists, appeasing the racists,
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: appeasing the worst limits within the Republican Party. I don't
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: know what is by the way, just to give you
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: a sense, last year, the number of asylum seekers the
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: war proved or the ceiling was one hundred and twenty
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: five thousands. They've gone one hundred twenty five thousand to
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: seventy five hundred. That's a pretty big drop, which is
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: fine by me if they open up immigration from other sources,
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: which they won't. But it's the racist aspect of it,
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: and it's clearly racist. There's no other justification for singling
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: out white South Africans. Well, you know, somebody system surprises,
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: not Katari's what Kataries are not running away from anything
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: right there. The regime is super nice and super friendly
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: and that's what they want. So I support limiting refugees
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: and but else to support expanding work related visas, which
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: the Trump administration will not do.
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: And I all support limiting the refugees.
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: The white dudes, I know there's open talk of racial
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: hatred among certain people in the South African government believe me.
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: I know.
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: I mean, I have quite a few family members in
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: South Africa and they have the same skin color as
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: I do. So I know exactly what's going on in
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: South Africa, and I care about what's going on in
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: South Africa, and I worry about what's going on.
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: In South Africa.
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: And by the way, the South Africans get a lot
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: of money from Kato, and that is why they're so
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: wanta Israel and why they're the ones who brought prosecution
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: and the ICC against Israel for for it's the Katari
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: money is influence beyond the fact that they're leftists and
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: haters of Israel. Above and beyond that. Oh, old Greg says,
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: I'm not very are you well informed? Please tell me
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: what I'm not well informed? What I'm not well informed about?
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: All right?
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: Old Greg says we should not be a nation that
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: hosts ideological enemies. I agree, Nick Foyanti should be deported immediately.
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: So Shia Taka Carlson, he's our ideological enemy, so let's
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: get rid of him. I mean, I'm kidding, but you know,
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: because I don't think and I don't think that's what
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: Greg meant he's thus accusing me of misquoting. Uhis I paraphrased?
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: But I've watched the Nick foy iNTS videos and no,
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: it's very accurate. Nick Frantis is anti American. He is thoroughly, systematically,
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: through and through anti American. He is as anti American
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: as mum Danis. They are twin brothers in a sense
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: in their anti Americanism. He is as anti American as
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: the worst leftist. And he is the kind of person
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: that the funding fathers and really the people who built
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: this country would find abhorrent and despicable.
- 1:17:28Speaker 2: And he is.
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: He is again, he's anti American. He's not America first,
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: He's America last. And as most of the people who
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: declare themselves America first, they don't understand what America is.
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: They have no conception of Americanism. They have no conception
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: of what America stands for. America is the land of individualism.
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: Nick Foytis is a through and through collectivist tribalists. And
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: if you don't see that, then you don't have. You
- 1:18:01Speaker 1: can't think you've you've you've become uh part of the tribe.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: And they folk can't think, God, you guys are such
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: some of you just.
- 1:18:17Speaker 2: Ah, it's hard to believe, you know, this is the thing.
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: Maybe maybe I get.
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: A a biased kind of in terms of people who
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: who follow me, but maybe it's because of the title
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: had four intercendent. But the people in my chat are
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: so horrific and an expend some of them the extent
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: that they are representative of what's going on in America.
- 1:18:42Speaker 2: It is really horrifying.
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: Now, again, it's probably not representative of what's going on
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: a lot of in most of America, but.
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: Uh, it is. It is truly truly horrific.
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson is rolling in his grave thinking about, you know,
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: if he has any access to what is going on
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: right now. So, yes, frentis as anti American Tucker Colson's
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: anti American. They have no conception of what America means,
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: what America is. And the idea, the idea that the
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: Founders would have supported a anti Semite. You should you
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: should read, you know, George Washington's letter to the Jewish
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: community of Charleston.
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: I think it was.
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: You should you should look at what Thomas Jefferson had
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: to say about separation of state from religion.
- 1:19:41Speaker 2: You should you should.
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: Read what they had to say about individual individual rights.
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: This country was proposely not founded as a Christian country.
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: This is a country founded on secular values. This is
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: a country founded by deists, and it's some cases atheists
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: man of principle, not scumbags like Nick Foy. Inter's all right,
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: let's uh, all right, let's turn to your questions. We
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: have quite a few, Thank you guys. You guys are
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: being very generous today, and there are a lot of questions,
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: so we will cover them all as long as the
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: Wi Fi gods Wi Fi gods play along. All right,
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: Let's start with I thought I saw one hundred dollars question. Yeah,
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: there's one hundred dollars question. Got a bunch of fifty
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: dollar questions, Thank you guys. All right, let's start with dum,
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: where is it Michael? Who has one hundred dollars question?
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: All right, America is not founded on Christian values, has
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: founded in Enlightenment values.
- 1:21:11Speaker 2: Has founded on values that.
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: Relegated Christianity, relegated religion to your personal realm and keep
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: it out of the public square and keep it out
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: of government again. Read Thomas Jefferson. Read you know, read
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: the Statute on Religious Liberty and in the Virginia Constitution.
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: You guys who claim to be America first, should learn
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: a little bit about America and not from Christian national
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: sources that pervert and distort the founders and make them
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: into what they would like them to be. But read
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: the originals, Read the Federalist papers. Read Thomas Jefferson, you know,
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: look at what he read and what he studied. Look
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: at even John Adams. Look at who they respected, look
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: at what they believed in, look at what they.
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: Stood for, and they.
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: All right, Michael, thank you for one hundred dollars. Forty
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: percent of Trump's time is spent scheming for government manipulation
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: control to help his family business. Forty percent is spent
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: fixing problems he created. The remaining twenty percent is mostly
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: spent running around trying to garne a praise and attention
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: from others to fill his empty ego.
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: I don't think he.
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: Has to actually spend forty percent of his time to
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: manipulate things for his family business. I think that only
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: takes a small amount of his time. It's generated over
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: three billion dollars of profits for his family. So he
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: is by far the most corrupt president in American in
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: American history, and so you know he is. I don't
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: think he has to spend forty percent of the time.
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: It's true that he spends a huge amount of time
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: fixing problems. He's creating and creating more problems by fixing them,
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: so he's not really fixing them.
- 1:23:10Speaker 2: He's just creating a whole sequence of.
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: Problems on top of problems, on top of problems. You know,
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: we just got a trade deal with China. As I
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: told you beforehand that it wasn't a deal. It's not
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: a deal. It's just an outline of a deal, and
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: it's a truth. It's a cease fire for a year.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: It doesn't give the United States anything that it didn't
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: already have. The United States benefits zero from this deal.
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: The United States was much better off visa vias relationship
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: with China before Trump started this whole trade war. The
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: United States is clearly losing the trade war. Every time
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: Trump meets with she, he gives in, he gives she
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: more stuff. So, yes, he spends a lot of it,
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: and all of it, including that is there to gone
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: a attention and praise. You know, he spends much of
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: his time claiming to have established the only piece in
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: the Middle East in three thousand years and then preventing
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: as well from actually destroying its enemies and.
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: Holding them back. It really is, it really is.
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: I mean, he really is pathetic. He really is pathetic.
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: But yes, Michael, thank you for the support. Really really
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: really appreciate it. On top of everything else that you do.
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: I see that.
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: Let's see, we have a robust debate going on in
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: my chat about jay Daiya is a complete rationalist, detach
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: from reality. You know, the idea that he won the
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: debate is absurd when he completely distorts and perverts the
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: concepts that he uses and refuses refuses to accept any
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: epistemology but his distorted epistemology. So a debate with him
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: is impossible because he wants to set all the terms.
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: But anyway, you know, I'm getting ignored the chat Iron Maycut.
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: It was fund seeing you in Krakou. Yes, met some
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: awesome people at the bar Ps Gaza de la Nada. Yeah,
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: I was still working on that. Yeah, it was good
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: to see you on Maycut. Thank you for being there,
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: Thank you for all your support. We had a great
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: event in Krakou about thirty five students at the University there,
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: it was awesome morality of capitalism. In between, I spoke
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: at the Feet Cities conference in Prague, had about one
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: hundred people in the audience, maybe more, maybe one fifty,
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: and I talked about did I what did I talk
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: about there? White freedom? White freedom? Why you should care
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: about freedom? And what's the purpose of freedom? Freedom is
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: not an end in itself. Freedom is a means to
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: an end and what is that end? Talked about self
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: interest and talked about happiness and it was good. It
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: pissed off a bunch of people. Dave, good to see you, Dave,
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: thank you for the support. Dave says, I love I've
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: loved for Cormo. Today. In my area there are many
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: Mamdani campaigners. I chatted with some and they're non nihilistic
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: like Antifa or ideological Marxist.
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: They're idealists. Most of high income earners.
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: Yes, that's what I suspect, with advanced degrees, that's what
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: I suspected, the delusional about how to achieve human flourishing.
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: But they're the type of crowd more likely to be
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: a sponsors to objectivism then the fascist boots and the right.
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: I agree.
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: I think that's right. They're typically software engineers or professionals.
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: They make a lot of money. A lot of them
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: live in Brooklyn, I know where you talk to them,
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: but Mamdani has a lot of support in the wealthy
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: areas of Bookland where these professionals live.
- 1:27:20Speaker 2: And they are they're delusional.
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: They be miseducated, dramatically miseducated since they were in kindergarten.
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: They don't understand capitalism, it's benefits. They have this, you know,
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: naive but also evasive view because they purposefully don't look
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: at it too carefully of socialism. And they don't like
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: Israel because they buy all the images of bombing babies,
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: and they have this vague notion that Israel has done
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: something hoppable to the Palestinians and Israel as strong after all,
- 1:28:02Speaker 1: something must be wrong, you know, they must have not
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: something bad to be strong. They bought, They bought into
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: some extent or another. They bought into the intersectionality argument.
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: They're altruists because that's all they've known, all they've known
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: throughout their life is altruism. So yeah, I agree with you.
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: They're not nihilists per se. The consequence of what they're
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: doing is nihilism and they are evasive. They do evade
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: in order to be able to vote for money. They
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: have to evade a huge amount not to have a jolgorithm.
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: Many on the left, however, wrong philosophically, still operate within
- 1:28:39Speaker 1: the framework of the Constitution. They act through laws and
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: institutions rather than by personal decree, which makes them substantially
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: less dangerous than the New Right. Yeah, I agree completely.
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: It's one of my arguments about voting for Trump, particularly
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: the second time, when it was clear that he was
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: going to be guided by the New Right, that he
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: was going to surround himself by the new Right, and
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: that he was dedicated to himself to breaking the system,
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: a system that he hates and despises. He has no
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: respect for the Constitution and he wants.
- 1:29:12Speaker 2: To break it.
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: And yes, at least the left will do a lot
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: of damage. But the left does damage within parameters that
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: are easily reversible because they do it within the parameters
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: of the law and the Constitution. They're not quite ready
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: to declare the Constitution irrelevant as Trump is. That makes them,
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: i think, less dangerous, even if in a short run
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: very very damaging.
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: Not your average algorithm. If we fail to distinguish routine.
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: People who follow the rule of law and people who
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: seek to rule by whim, you've already surrendered the ground
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: of principle. I agree.
- 1:29:51Speaker 2: I don't believe you can defend Trump.
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: And still label yourself an objectivist at this point, you know,
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: it depends how you defend it. Trump again, I have
- 1:30:02Speaker 1: some I have some tolerance. I have some understanding of
- 1:30:08Speaker 1: people in business who voted for Trump and might defend
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: certain things about Trump, and I have some understanding of that,
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: particularly before the election. I think since the election, Trump
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: is manifest the worst, you know, the worst possibilities is
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: as bad as the worst of what I expected. But look,
- 1:30:37Speaker 1: I don't I mean, the whole idea of calling yourself
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: an objectivist, and who calls himself an objectist that doesn't
- 1:30:41Speaker 1: conversect is not of interest to me. What really matters
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: to me is the truth. What matters to me is
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: are you a truth seeker? The question is, are people, really,
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: even the people who supported Trump, able to look at
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: him with any objectivity? Are they willing to see the
- 1:30:57Speaker 1: evil that's there even as they see the elements of
- 1:31:01Speaker 1: good that they think is there. I don't think there's
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: any good in Trump, but the elements of good? Can
- 1:31:08Speaker 1: they really you know, criticize them? So, for example, people
- 1:31:12Speaker 1: won't criticize Trump that I think is horrific and despicable.
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: But you know, I'm not ready to say everybody who
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: is elected, who voted for him, or everybody who supports
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: him in some way cannot be an objectivist. But again,
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: what is an objectivist? Co objectivist? I don't think you
- 1:31:39Speaker 1: know who you vote for. I don't think it's that
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: valuable to categorize people that way. But are you a
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: truth seeker? And therefore are you willing to not evade
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: and look clearly and objectively and rationally and what Trump
- 1:31:54Speaker 1: actually stands for and what Trump actually does?
- 1:32:00Speaker 2: Andrew?
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: Many anti Semites suffer from a motivation by hate? Is
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: that motivation by fear at the core? Do you blame
- 1:32:09Speaker 1: modern philosophy for the creation of the hatred? Still, despite
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: modern philosophical influences, don't they have a choice to be evil?
- 1:32:19Speaker 2: Yes?
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: I mean everybody out there is influenced by modern philosophy,
- 1:32:23Speaker 1: and some either rejected philosophy or they let it bounce
- 1:32:29Speaker 1: off of them, or it affects them its submoginal issues,
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: But they don't become haters, They don't let it consume them.
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: Do I blame modern philosophy, yes, I mean, you know,
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: it's if you want to understand the impact philosophy has
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: on people's lives in our politics, redominant powers down as powers.
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: Where doctor Peacock really explains the rise of Hitler from
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: the perspective of the ideas that were prevalent in Many
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: at the time and in the decades leading to his rise.
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: And if you look at America today and that's the
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: dominant powerlel the parallel is America. You see the same
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: ideas prevalent in our culture. So it is contient philosophy
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: and it's you know, post modern implementation, and it's combination
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: with religion that is leading to this modern form of
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: anti semitism because that all leads towards collectivism, that all
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: leads towards tribalism. And look, anti semitism is every collectivistic
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: culture out there is going to be anti Semitic, because
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: collectivism is all about my group versus all the other groups.
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: And however you define my group in any kind of nation,
- 1:33:57Speaker 1: the Jews are going to be the other. The Jews
- 1:33:59Speaker 1: are the other. In Germany, the Jews of the other
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: in America, and they're particularly an offensive other because they
- 1:34:07Speaker 1: are religiously different, they're somewhat culturally different. And now there's
- 1:34:12Speaker 1: this country called Israel that supposedly they're aligned with. They're
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: affiliated with that, you know, can you can blame them
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: for everything.
- 1:34:25Speaker 2: That it does.
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: So it is collectivism and tribalism that are on the rise,
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: and the consequence of that is antisemitism. Anti Semitism is
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: not the primary it is the consequences. By the way,
- 1:34:42Speaker 1: the more Christian you become, the more anti Semitic you'll become.
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: The reality is the Christianity is the origin of antisemitism.
- 1:34:54Speaker 1: It is the beginning of antisemitism. It starts with Paul,
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: and it starts with the church fathers. It starts with
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: the debates of the church fathers. Y you know about
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: the horrible Jews that do not accept Christ and what
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: should be done with them? And some other church fathers
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: some of the first original great theologians of Christianity basically
- 1:35:21Speaker 1: said Jews need to be killed because they won't accept Christ.
- 1:35:25Speaker 1: I mean it was Augustine, who was the moderate, who
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: said they shouldn't be killed, they should be kept alive.
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: To suffer so that everybody can constantly see what happens
- 1:35:35Speaker 1: to those who do not accept Christ. You know, the
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: Crusades were first and foremost about killing Jews, and then
- 1:35:46Speaker 1: we'll go to Jerusalem and kill them Muslims. But Christianity
- 1:35:54Speaker 1: is the source of anti Semitism, and it's the breeding
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: ground of anti Semtism. And therefore what you get is
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: as the country becomes more tribal, more collectivistic, and therefore
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: and more Christian, it'll become more anti Semitic.
- 1:36:12Speaker 2: That's on the right and on the left.
- 1:36:13Speaker 1: The anti Semitism comes from collectivism and altruism. So you know,
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: it's intersectionality. It's the fact that Jews are successful. It's
- 1:36:34Speaker 1: the fact that the same thing happened in Germany. The
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: Jews are successful, but they're the other, and they're scheming
- 1:36:40Speaker 1: against us, and they're bad, and therefore they must be eliminated.
- 1:36:45Speaker 1: And I think the same attitude exists today. Of course,
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: the Jews killed Christian killed Jesus. And notice that they
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: don't blame the Romans for killing Jesus. They don't blame
- 1:36:58Speaker 1: the Roman Empire for killing and that's purposefully done. You know,
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: Originally the Romans were blamed for killing Jesus. They were
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: the primary cause of Jesus's death. But then when the
- 1:37:14Speaker 1: Roman Empire became christian that is, when Constantine brought Christianity
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: into the Roman Empire, made Christianity a part of Roman identity,
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: then it didn't make sense for them to continue blaming
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: themselves for killing Jesus, so they shifted. You know, Pontus Pius,
- 1:37:39Speaker 1: the Roman was just a tool of the Jews. He
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: was just being manipulated by the Jews. And you know,
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: the Jewish clergy, the Jewish leadership, the Jewish establishment, and
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: they're the ones who actually killed Jesus. And of course
- 1:37:59Speaker 1: he was betrayed by jew but then most of all
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: of his followers were Jews. Right, he was a Jew,
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: but he was a Jew who led a new sac
- 1:38:07Speaker 1: who led a cult.
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: And so that.
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: Again, Christianity is very much the source of anti Semitism.
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: Jews might have been hated before that, but certainly all
- 1:38:26Speaker 1: forms of anti Semitism post Jesus are influenced by Christian
- 1:38:30Speaker 1: anti Semitism. So it's a combination of modern philosophy, kant
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: and post content philosophy.
- 1:38:40Speaker 2: And Christianity and on the left.
- 1:38:43Speaker 1: It's mostly secular post continent philosophy and Marxism. Marx was
- 1:38:47Speaker 1: an antisemity. I mean, Marx sounds like Nick Filantis. When
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: Nick Franis complains about capitalist Jews and Jewish greed, it
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: sounds exactly like Max. Call Max. It's as if he's
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: reading for Carl Marx's essay on the Jewish Question. Troy,
- 1:39:15Speaker 1: thank you. Troy just came in with five hundred Australian dollars.
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: Really really really appreciate that. Thank you, thank you, Thank you, Troy.
- 1:39:21Speaker 1: That is amazing. Yeah, all right, Harper Campbell, It's sad
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: to see the author of Dominus Parallels being exploited in
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: his old age and poor health by Trump psychopaths like
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: Dave Hammond.
- 1:39:43Speaker 2: Oh, I like that.
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: You call Dave Hammond a psychopaths. I think that's fitting
- 1:39:50Speaker 1: as a justification for their boot licking support of an authoritarian.
- 1:39:56Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's it's really really.
- 1:39:58Speaker 1: Sad to see Dave Hammond associating with Lennar Peacoff. You
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: should have been Leonard should have nothing to do with Dave,
- 1:40:08Speaker 1: And I think a younger Leonard would have nothing.
- 1:40:10Speaker 2: To do with Dave Hammond. It's really sad By.
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: You said last show that we should teach the found
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: Head to our kids. Doesn't that mean you have to
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: marry an objectivist? What if your spouse wants to teach
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: your kids some collectivist book or religious book, then let
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: them that is, you know, then present the kids with
- 1:40:32Speaker 1: both sets of ideas and let the kids make a choice.
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: But to ignore the ideas that you hold, or to
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: ignore the ideas that your wife holds or your husband holds,
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: I think is wrong. So present them with both views,
- 1:40:48Speaker 1: present them with both ideas, and let the kids make
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: a decision instead of creating a vacuum.
- 1:40:55Speaker 2: So no, you don't have to marry an objectives to that.
- 1:40:58Speaker 1: If your spouse wants to once the present day views,
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: let them And again, all right, Chasbad has a correction,
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: and we're not burying the correction, right, Chasbad says important correction.
- 1:41:14Speaker 1: On the last show, I quoted Lieutenant Frank Drebben the
- 1:41:17Speaker 1: Naked Gun as receiving an award for killing one hundred
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: drug dealers. It was actually one thousand drug dealers. Oh,
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: so Trump has a way to go before he gets
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: the thousand drug dealers on those boats, because he's only
- 1:41:30Speaker 1: killing him one or two at a time, or two
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: or three at a time. So it's going to be
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: a while. A lot of boats are going to have
- 1:41:35Speaker 1: to be blown out out of the water for that
- 1:41:38Speaker 1: to happen. Yeah, we'll talk more about that on another show.
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: All right, Thank you, chezmun Now javj ago with him.
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: Trump doesn't even pretend to operate within a constitutional frame.
- 1:41:49Speaker 1: He treats the law as a tool of loyalty and vengeance,
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: not as a principle that binds every individual equally.
- 1:41:55Speaker 2: Yes, I think that's true.
- 1:41:57Speaker 1: But more than that, he treats the law as as
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: an obstacle to achieving his goals. He treats the law
- 1:42:05Speaker 1: as an obstacle to be overcome given the goals that
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: he has. He doesn't treat the laws as principles to
- 1:42:15Speaker 1: guide social action, principles to guide the limitation on government.
- 1:42:23Speaker 1: On the contrary, he finds the Constitution and the laws.
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: Too limiting of him.
- 1:42:28Speaker 1: Will see in the arguments in front of the court
- 1:42:32Speaker 1: around tariffs how that plays out. Trump doesn't want to
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: be limited by all these laws and the Constitution and
- 1:42:40Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. He finds that offensive, Michael. As much
- 1:42:45Speaker 1: as Trump advises one fascist control over the economy. Does
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: Trump p betferre a strong stock market he can take
- 1:42:52Speaker 1: credit for, because you can't have both. The one thing
- 1:42:55Speaker 1: preventing our economic enslavement is Trump's narcissism.
- 1:42:59Speaker 2: I think he wants he wants both.
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: And look, he's got all these tariffs and the stock
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: market's doing fantastic. Now, whether we'll continue to do fantastic,
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: How long the stock market could stay as high as
- 1:43:11Speaker 1: it is, I don't know, But yes, Trump wants us
- 1:43:14Speaker 1: a good stock market, wants a good bond market. He
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: wants lower interest rates, and he wants control over the economy.
- 1:43:21Speaker 1: And he can't have everything at the same time. And
- 1:43:24Speaker 1: there's polls and tugs and it's but a lot of
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: it's out of his control. He doesn't actually control the
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: stock market.
- 1:43:30Speaker 2: So if.
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: There's a significant correction in the marketplace, in the stock market,
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: what's Trump.
- 1:43:39Speaker 2: Going to do?
- 1:43:39Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think he'll have much control over it.
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: I don't think there's much he can do one way
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: or the other, even if he wants a successful stock market.
- 1:43:46Speaker 1: Very few presidents to do. Somebody says all criticism of
- 1:43:57Speaker 1: Israel is any Semitic. There's no legitimate cored Israel. That's
- 1:44:01Speaker 1: not true. I criticize Israel all the time. There's absolutely
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: legitimate criticism of Israel. There's a lot of things Israel
- 1:44:08Speaker 1: does badly wrongly, Paul, How do sanctions against a country
- 1:44:21Speaker 1: actually work? How can executive branch issue sanctions? Can other
- 1:44:24Speaker 1: countries sanction US sales? Yes, sanctions work by for example,
- 1:44:32Speaker 1: we freeze the bank accounts of Russian oligarchs, so they
- 1:44:36Speaker 1: can't withdraw the money from their bank accounts. The bank
- 1:44:40Speaker 1: cannot release the money to them, cannot release the money
- 1:44:43Speaker 1: to anybody.
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: It's just fozen in place.
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: And you know other countries can do that to Americans
- 1:44:49Speaker 1: who have money in their banks. You know, America took
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: the yachts of saying and I Russian oligogs, so the
- 1:45:04Speaker 1: things like that. Now, it's part of understanding is and
- 1:45:08Speaker 1: I'm not expert on this, but understanding is that there
- 1:45:10Speaker 1: are laws that give the executive branch the authority to
- 1:45:15Speaker 1: extend sanctions in other countries. For example, they're not allowed
- 1:45:18Speaker 1: to buy wheats from you're not allowed to buy some
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: product from country acts. For example, you can't you can't
- 1:45:29Speaker 1: buy Cuban cigars. I think that's stupid. But you can't
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: buy Cuban cigars, right, that's illegal. That's a form of sanction.
- 1:45:37Speaker 1: So it's just a banning of a particular product from
- 1:45:39Speaker 1: a particular plays, and I think the executive their laws
- 1:45:43Speaker 1: that have given the executive the power to do that
- 1:45:46Speaker 1: as part of their responsibility for pharm policy. The oceanist
- 1:45:53Speaker 1: collectivism is easy. It's easier to blame an other for
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: your personal shortcomings. Absolutely, a lot of these people, whether
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: left or right, are insecure and will blame the immigrant
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: or the billionaire for their faults. Yes, so yeah, I
- 1:46:17Speaker 1: mean that's absolutely the case. But I don't think that's
- 1:46:19Speaker 1: the source of collectivism. I don't think that's where collectivism
- 1:46:23Speaker 1: actually comes from. Collectivism collectivism doesn't come from blaming the other.
- 1:46:33Speaker 1: Collectivism comes from, you know, a lack of self esteem,
- 1:46:39Speaker 1: a lack of confidence in one's own judgment, and again
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: the philosophy, the ideology that one's own judgment doesn't count,
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: that one's own life doesn't count.
- 1:46:49Speaker 2: It comes from altruism.
- 1:46:50Speaker 1: It tells you that you should sacrifice for others, and
- 1:46:53Speaker 1: if others are more important than you, that's collectivism, right.
- 1:46:57Speaker 1: Collectivism is that others are above you. The group, whatever group,
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: some group is more important than you as an individual.
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: That the source of that is lack of self esteem.
- 1:47:08Speaker 1: The source of that is a distrust of your own
- 1:47:11Speaker 1: capacity to think and reason. And the source of that
- 1:47:14Speaker 1: is a morality that tells you, and that you buy
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: into that says that your happiness, your success, your flourishing
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: is not important. What's important is other people, and you
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: should you are just a sacrificial lamb for their sake.
- 1:47:29Speaker 1: Well which other people, Well, you have to choose a
- 1:47:32Speaker 1: group to sacrifice too, and that becomes your collective, that
- 1:47:35Speaker 1: becomes your standard, that becomes your guide. It's driven by
- 1:47:39Speaker 1: altruism and anti reason. That's what drives collectivism. And then
- 1:47:43Speaker 1: once you form a collective and you're still unhappy and
- 1:47:46Speaker 1: you're still miserable, and you're still all of that, then
- 1:47:48Speaker 1: you turn against the successful other and you blame them
- 1:47:54Speaker 1: for your failings, just as you describe. But that's kind
- 1:47:56Speaker 1: of a consequence, is not the motivation? Andrews says, what
- 1:48:03Speaker 1: is the significance of wanting to belong to the majority
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: group as a motive among Christian collectivists? If JD stayed
- 1:48:12Speaker 1: an atheist, he could not have become a prominent statement
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: and adorned by an adorned by so many as he
- 1:48:20Speaker 1: is now.
- 1:48:23Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, I think I.
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: Think this is truly an intellectual transition for Jdvance. I
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: don't think this was motivated by his desire for power.
- 1:48:33Speaker 1: I think when he became a Christian, he was not
- 1:48:36Speaker 1: yet contemplating politics. And we know the influence that made
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: him Christian, and that influence was somebody he respected. It was.
- 1:48:46Speaker 2: Peter Teel.
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: Peter Teel who is a Catholic but a kind of
- 1:48:49Speaker 1: a quirky Catholic, and introduced him to this theologian that
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: Todd at Stanford, and I forget his name, but that
- 1:48:56Speaker 1: influenced Peter Teel, and he influenced Jade Vance and then JD.
- 1:49:00Speaker 1: Evans ultimately converted to Catholicism. But I don't think that trend,
- 1:49:04Speaker 1: that whole process, and that transition were motivated by a power.
- 1:49:09Speaker 1: I think it was motivated by maybe a need to
- 1:49:12Speaker 1: belong to a group. But again, it wasn't a need
- 1:49:15Speaker 1: to belong to a group because he wanted power. It
- 1:49:17Speaker 1: was a need to belong to a group because psychologically
- 1:49:20Speaker 1: he wanted to belong to a group. It also is
- 1:49:23Speaker 1: true that unless you have self esteem and unless you
- 1:49:28Speaker 1: have a strong sense of values that you know, for
- 1:49:33Speaker 1: some people, atheism is empty. Atheism is empty. Atheism is
- 1:49:37Speaker 1: just a negation of God. It's not pro anything. And
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: I think Jadvans was looking for something and part of
- 1:49:45Speaker 1: it is social and part of it is intellectual. But
- 1:49:49Speaker 1: I don't think the primary was political. I don't think
- 1:49:53Speaker 1: the primary is political. Yeah, all right, Roland support from
- 1:50:15Speaker 1: my fellow leftist extremists. That's me, a leftist extremist rogers.
- 1:50:20Speaker 1: Thank you, it says, thank you. I think you are
- 1:50:22Speaker 1: just thank you for the support.
- 1:50:23Speaker 2: John.
- 1:50:23Speaker 1: Okay, this is the question he asks every few weeks.
- 1:50:26Speaker 1: Long term, what's the greatest threat to Europe? Christianity or Islam? Christianity.
- 1:50:31Speaker 1: Islam is the short term threat. Islam is what will
- 1:50:35Speaker 1: allow Christianity to rise UH and UH and become UH
- 1:50:40Speaker 1: and become a real threat. It is the response to the
- 1:50:44Speaker 1: Islam that the Christian nationalists in Europe will have, that
- 1:50:49Speaker 1: is the that is the worst threat to Europe. Uh.
- 1:50:52Speaker 1: This is why UH, it's important for for secular Europeans
- 1:50:59Speaker 1: to deal with most Now, if secular Christians deal with
- 1:51:04Speaker 1: if secular secular Europeans deal with a Muslim problem now,
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: then they will take away the impetus for the rise
- 1:51:15Speaker 1: of Christian nationalism in Europe. So radios as I says,
- 1:51:22Speaker 1: long term threat to Europe is nihilism. Yes, but nihilism
- 1:51:26Speaker 1: can come from the right or from the left right,
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: it can come from Christianity, or from you know, leftist.
- 1:51:37Speaker 2: Crazies, all for that matter, from Muslims.
- 1:51:44Speaker 1: But I think that, as I often said, Europeans will
- 1:51:48Speaker 1: some point wake up to the Islamic threat if the
- 1:51:51Speaker 1: Islamists get violent, and will wipe them out, and then
- 1:51:56Speaker 1: the process turn Europe fascist.
- 1:51:59Speaker 2: And that I think the long term threat.
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: Michael, has the right always been racist, They just a
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: point in political dominance where they can stop hiding it.
- 1:52:09Speaker 2: I don't know if they've always been racist.
- 1:52:10Speaker 1: I don't think so, but certainly the Civil rights period
- 1:52:15Speaker 1: was a turning point. You know, a lot of the
- 1:52:18Speaker 1: states that were racist, a lot of the South were Democrats.
- 1:52:23Speaker 2: A lot of the people who were.
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: Racists in the nineteen sixties were Democrats, and they were upset.
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: Those Democrats were upset.
- 1:52:34Speaker 1: By the Democratic Party supporting the civil rights movement. They
- 1:52:40Speaker 1: were upset by liberal Democrats coming down to the South
- 1:52:44Speaker 1: and supporting black in a sense of emancipation and equal
- 1:52:49Speaker 1: rights for blacks. And that was Nixon's Southern strategy. It
- 1:52:55Speaker 1: was to capture them, to convert them to those racists,
- 1:52:59Speaker 1: to convert them to a Republican party. And they became
- 1:53:01Speaker 1: a part of the Republican Party. And it looked like
- 1:53:05Speaker 1: for a long time, I'd say, from the mid seventies
- 1:53:09Speaker 1: until the mid twenty teens, that the racism had been suppressed,
- 1:53:17Speaker 1: that generally whites had become a lot less racist, that
- 1:53:20Speaker 1: racism was in decline, and it was fading from America.
- 1:53:25Speaker 1: And I think that it was just buried, but it
- 1:53:28Speaker 1: was always there, and it has come out of its
- 1:53:32Speaker 1: hiding place and has been legitimized. And again I think
- 1:53:35Speaker 1: that Trump did a lot to legitimize it and to
- 1:53:37Speaker 1: make it acceptable to come out onto the surface. Jennifer says,
- 1:53:49Speaker 1: what is Zion isn't supposed to mean doesn't mean a
- 1:53:51Speaker 1: safe place like Israel for Jews to live, or doesn't
- 1:53:54Speaker 1: mean a collectivistic Jewish state. It seems to be used
- 1:53:57Speaker 1: in different ways. I think it means different things to
- 1:54:00Speaker 1: different people. For some people, it means a collectivistic Jewish state,
- 1:54:05Speaker 1: and there's definitely a lot of collectivism in Israel. I
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: I criticize Israel all the time. I left Israel because
- 1:54:12Speaker 1: of how collectivistic a state it was. But I think
- 1:54:15Speaker 1: the b the the more positive UH interpretation of Zionism,
- 1:54:18Speaker 1: and I think Zionism as intended by its founder, Theodore Hertzel,
- 1:54:24Speaker 1: was a state for the Jews, not a Jewish state.
- 1:54:28Speaker 1: A state for the Jews is a refuge for Jews,
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: a place the Jews can go to, a liberal country
- 1:54:35Speaker 1: that did not discriminate against other others. And Israel does
- 1:54:38Speaker 1: not discriminate against Arabs, Christians, against Jews, a a against Muslims.
- 1:54:43Speaker 1: It does not discriminate against them. So it gives them
- 1:54:46Speaker 1: equal it gives them equal rights. So it's not in
- 1:54:49Speaker 1: that sense in ethno state. The only sense in which
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: the the the collectivism UH or the the the Jewishness,
- 1:54:57Speaker 1: if you will, comes in is an immigration policy. That is,
- 1:55:01Speaker 1: Jews can immigrate to Israel freely. It's open boaders for Jews.
- 1:55:06Speaker 1: Others can't. They can still immigrate, but it's very hard
- 1:55:10Speaker 1: and the numbers are small, so it's close to non
- 1:55:14Speaker 1: Jews for the most but not not exactly. I mean
- 1:55:16Speaker 1: you could see in the in the hostages that Hamas
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: took on October seventh, some of them were Nepalese, some
- 1:55:22Speaker 1: of them are tie These are people who come to
- 1:55:24Speaker 1: work in Israel. You know, my parents have two helpers
- 1:55:28Speaker 1: who live with them. One is from Subri Lanka and
- 1:55:30Speaker 1: one is from India. Neither one of them is Jewish,
- 1:55:33Speaker 1: and they're going to live in Israel for a long time.
- 1:55:35Speaker 1: They make money and they send it back home. So
- 1:55:44Speaker 1: you know, Zionism is not Again Theodo Hutze would have
- 1:55:50Speaker 1: viewed it as a refuge for Jews, a state in
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: which Jews are safe, but not a Jewish state in
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: a sense of Jewish law. And I think to all
- 1:55:59Speaker 1: you say Israel is that there are people in Israel
- 1:56:04Speaker 1: who would like to make it a Jewish state, who
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: would like to eliminate any separation of state from religion
- 1:56:11Speaker 1: and discriminate against Muslims and Christians. But I think it's
- 1:56:15Speaker 1: still true that the majority in Israel are pro some
- 1:56:19Speaker 1: form of separation, not complete, but a significant form of
- 1:56:22Speaker 1: separation of state from religion and equal rights to all religions.
- 1:56:26Speaker 1: And in that sense, again, I view Israel as a
- 1:56:32Speaker 1: state for Jews, not as a Jewish state, and I
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: think the difference between those two is important. I just
- 1:56:49Speaker 1: criticize Israel. Does that make me an anti Semite? I
- 1:56:52Speaker 1: don't know, all right, thotionist. How long until the right
- 1:56:57Speaker 1: abandons Trump? An open secret that Tucker hates him and
- 1:57:02Speaker 1: for intus is very critical of him. Well, I don't
- 1:57:05Speaker 1: think that'll abandon Trump because they view Trump as a
- 1:57:07Speaker 1: vehicle to get their way, so they will stick by
- 1:57:09Speaker 1: Trump as long as Trump is there. He is a
- 1:57:13Speaker 1: way to get them. Jdvans, Tucker Coulson and Jdvans are
- 1:57:16Speaker 1: good friends. And while the points is not supportive of JD. Evans,
- 1:57:21Speaker 1: maybe he'll be brought around by Tucker Caulson. Whoever becomes
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: the nominee of the Republican Party, Nick fo Inis and
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson will have a lot of say in who
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: that person is. They view Trump as a vehicle and
- 1:57:35Speaker 1: he served He's been a very good vehicle for them,
- 1:57:38Speaker 1: so they will continue to support him as long as
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: he's that vehicle that gets them what they want. Liam
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: are Republicans better locally than nationally. Republican governors tend to
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: run their states better than democratic governors, but when they
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: run the federal government, they fascism emerges.
- 1:57:54Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you're generalizing.
- 1:57:56Speaker 1: I think the reality is that the governors, most of them,
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: not all of them, but most of them are more
- 1:58:03Speaker 1: mainstream conservatives and less Maga. Now there are some mega
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: governors out there, and there's some real problems in those states.
- 1:58:11Speaker 1: You know, there's there's there's real evil in Texas and
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: in many of the Southern states when it comes to
- 1:58:17Speaker 1: things like abortion, for example, real evil. You know, they
- 1:58:23Speaker 1: do some good things and then they do some really, really,
- 1:58:25Speaker 1: really bad things. So what does it mean that they
- 1:58:28Speaker 1: run their states better? In what sense?
- 1:58:32Speaker 2: Economically? A lot of these Southern states.
- 1:58:35Speaker 1: Are super poor, super poor with really horrible educational attainment.
- 1:58:44Speaker 1: So right, so I'm not convinced that Republican governors are better.
- 1:58:57Speaker 1: I mean, in some states they are, but they tend
- 1:59:00Speaker 1: to be like Jolkin's in Virginia. He's a pretty moderate Republican, right,
- 1:59:06Speaker 1: and he's not He's not Maga. The former governor of
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: Georgia not Maga. I mean, I think DeSantis is in
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: Florida is this mixture. He's got some good things and
- 1:59:18Speaker 1: he's got some really bad things in Texas. There's some
- 1:59:23Speaker 1: really bad things and some good things. So it's it's
- 1:59:28Speaker 1: it's a mixed bag. Governors. Republican governors are mixed bags.
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: And it's not clear that past Republican presidents were fascist
- 1:59:40Speaker 1: or even that most Republican senators as such. But most
- 1:59:43Speaker 1: Republican senators have decided that they're going to support Trump
- 1:59:48Speaker 1: no matter what that that is. That is cowardly of them,
- 1:59:52Speaker 1: but that is the reality. Harpercampbell, will you be exposing
- 2:00:02Speaker 1: Harriman before the New Year's Eve show? I don't know
- 2:00:07Speaker 1: how much money will you give me? I don't know.
- 2:00:10Speaker 1: I don't think so. But there's no I mean, no rush.
- 2:00:14Speaker 1: I like numbers. People like Mark Levin on the right
- 2:00:18Speaker 1: are pushing back against for intest, Yeah, but they have
- 2:00:22Speaker 1: no Ultimately, they have no following, they have no base.
- 2:00:26Speaker 1: Isn't the lesson that you can have more influence on
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: the right by being part of it? I don't understand
- 2:00:33Speaker 1: that at all. I mean, who has more influence on
- 2:00:37Speaker 1: the right by being part of it? I mean, and
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: who wants to be part of it? Why would you
- 2:00:41Speaker 1: want to be part of a right that includes Nick
- 2:00:45Speaker 1: Foy intis? And does that Why would I mean, if
- 2:00:50Speaker 1: you if you have actional ideas, wouldn't your wouldn't your
- 2:00:57Speaker 1: audience see right through you that you're training those ideas
- 2:01:01Speaker 1: by being in a coalition with Tucker Casson and Nick Fourentes.
- 2:01:04Speaker 2: How could you have integrity?
- 2:01:05Speaker 1: By being in that coalition, you lose all credibility, James,
- 2:01:12Speaker 1: the GP is maybe ten to fifteen years away from
- 2:01:15Speaker 1: being an explicit Nazi party anti semitism and racism and
- 2:01:19Speaker 1: being successfully mainstream.
- 2:01:20Speaker 2: Listen to JD.
- 2:01:21Speaker 1: Vans at the Turning Point USA and the other day
- 2:01:23Speaker 1: talking about fundamental differences of Christianity and Judaism, the error
- 2:01:27Speaker 1: of Judo Christianity values over well.
- 2:01:30Speaker 2: And I think that's good.
- 2:01:31Speaker 1: Because it was always it was always unreal Judo christian
- 2:01:37Speaker 1: values as if they were good or as if they
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: were the.
- 2:01:39Speaker 2: Same, then they're not.
- 2:01:41Speaker 1: But I agree with you now, I don't think the
- 2:01:43Speaker 1: GP is going to become Nazi. I don't think it
- 2:01:45Speaker 1: will be explicitly Nazi. But I do think the era
- 2:01:48Speaker 1: of Christian nationalism, which is what Leonard predicted in Dim.
- 2:01:54Speaker 2: Is upon us.
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: And it's a matter of yeah, ten fifteen years before
- 2:01:58Speaker 1: we have full on with him helping a party is
- 2:02:01Speaker 1: a full on Christian nationalist party.
- 2:02:03Speaker 2: It's right there.
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: Henry Allen, in his dim book Peacock predicted Christian Sotulitanism
- 2:02:10Speaker 1: taking over.
- 2:02:11Speaker 2: Have you spoken to him about this what's going on today?
- 2:02:15Speaker 1: Does he know about Project twenty twenty five and fu Intas?
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: I have not spoken to him about it. I haven't
- 2:02:23Speaker 1: spoken to him seriously about politics. I think since twenty twenty. Yeah,
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: I think around twenty twenty was the last time we
- 2:02:32Speaker 1: had a serious political philosophical discussion. So no, as I said,
- 2:02:40Speaker 1: we haven't talked about it. Does he know about Project
- 2:02:42Speaker 1: twenty twenty five or Funtas? Look Leonard gets I think
- 2:02:46Speaker 1: at least last time I talked to him, you know
- 2:02:49Speaker 1: about this? He got most of his news from Macklevin
- 2:02:53Speaker 1: and the New York Post. It's the extent that they
- 2:02:56Speaker 1: covered it. He would know about it. And Macklevin is
- 2:02:59Speaker 1: pushing against Nick Foyenttis, but I think Mark Levin is
- 2:03:03Speaker 1: probably minimizing the significance of Nick Foyenttis and his influence
- 2:03:06Speaker 1: among uh on the right. And I don't know how
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: much talk it was a Project twenty twenty five, so
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: I don't know how much Leonard knows about either one
- 2:03:16Speaker 1: of those things and to what extent it sinks in
- 2:03:19Speaker 1: or it's the full implication and manifestation of those things
- 2:03:24Speaker 1: sinks in or has been explained to him by anybody. Again,
- 2:03:28Speaker 1: the only people, the only person I can think of
- 2:03:30Speaker 1: who might have done it is Mark Levin. But Mark
- 2:03:32Speaker 1: Levin is very mixed on these things. He's not mixed
- 2:03:36Speaker 1: on nickfoy Inis. But his criticism is going to be shallow,
- 2:03:40Speaker 1: and he is not going to emphasize how influential Nickfoorentis is.
- 2:03:45Speaker 1: He's going to downplay that thochanist. Yeah, Azrael controls the US.
- 2:03:51Speaker 1: That's why in the eighties US Marine stopped Israelis from
- 2:03:55Speaker 1: going to Parts and be roots. Just don't look up
- 2:04:00Speaker 1: how the locals thank the Marines.
- 2:04:05Speaker 2: That all is a little confusing, you know.
- 2:04:11Speaker 1: Yes, it was Ronald Reagan who stopped Israel from going
- 2:04:15Speaker 1: into West Bay Route and finishing off yes Ralpha in
- 2:04:18Speaker 1: his in his fighters and the Marines were deployed, and
- 2:04:22Speaker 1: of course the Marines were killed to undred forty four
- 2:04:25Speaker 1: Marines were killed in their barracks by what became Risbala,
- 2:04:30Speaker 1: by the Iranians and Chris Bala, But yeah, Israel does
- 2:04:38Speaker 1: not control the US Visuel control the US.
- 2:04:42Speaker 2: Israel would have. Israel would not have been stopped in.
- 2:04:46Speaker 1: Nineteen seventy three from finishing the job versus the Egyptians.
- 2:04:51Speaker 1: Israel would not have been stopped in Beirut in nineteen
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: eighty three. Israel would not have been stopped to kill
- 2:04:57Speaker 1: Yes or Alpha In during the second d the fat
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: in the early two thous thousands, and Isaul would not
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: have agreed to the cease fire which prevented it. You know,
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: is this close to going in and occupying Gaza and
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: slowly dismantling Hamas. The whole war that it's prosecuted against
- 2:05:15Speaker 1: Hamas was to lodge extent done based on American rules.
- 2:05:22Speaker 1: Clark says, I don't think Nick Frite, this is a
- 2:05:24Speaker 1: real person. This creature has mastered trolling to find art.
- 2:05:28Speaker 1: He must be secretly amazed by how far he's come. Probably,
- 2:05:32Speaker 1: but he's come far, and he is real. And you know,
- 2:05:38Speaker 1: in either case, the phenomenon is real, his following is real,
- 2:05:42Speaker 1: and it's scary. Michael is Israeli is so intense and
- 2:05:50Speaker 1: rude because of trauma from the Holocaust and constantly fighting wars,
- 2:05:55Speaker 1: or because they're more intellectual and have absorbed content. Collective
- 2:05:59Speaker 1: is philosophy. Deeply, I don't think either one of those
- 2:06:05Speaker 1: is true. I mean, I think they're they're more intense
- 2:06:10Speaker 1: and you know, I don't know that they're rude. Part
- 2:06:13Speaker 1: of that is an intensity because they live in a
- 2:06:17Speaker 1: region that's constantly a war. They don't have time for nonsense.
- 2:06:21Speaker 1: They just wanted to get on with things. They don't
- 2:06:25Speaker 1: like standing in the queue. They don't like standing in line.
- 2:06:29Speaker 1: That's part of it. Yeah, I mean there's suddenly an
- 2:06:31Speaker 1: element of the collectivism. There's certainly an element of you know,
- 2:06:38Speaker 1: a zero some mentality that comes from years under socialism.
- 2:06:42Speaker 2: That is part of that.
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: But a lot of it has to do with But
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: it's also you know, people in the Mediterranean are like
- 2:06:48Speaker 1: this heat generates a certain i don't know, a certain
- 2:06:55Speaker 1: type of energy when you live in a hot place.
- 2:07:01Speaker 1: It's also because it's a kind of a melting pot
- 2:07:04Speaker 1: of so many different cultures.
- 2:07:05Speaker 2: I mean, people think of.
- 2:07:07Speaker 1: Oh, it's a a mono culture place because they're all Jews,
- 2:07:11Speaker 1: But these Jews have come from all corners of the world,
- 2:07:16Speaker 1: and they being with them much of the culture of
- 2:07:18Speaker 1: the places they left. So it is really a multicultural place,
- 2:07:25Speaker 1: and it's a it's a melting pot of places, and
- 2:07:27Speaker 1: you get this class of cultures within Israel. It's very
- 2:07:30Speaker 1: much alive even today. Uh. And that's what people don't understand.
- 2:07:34Speaker 1: People say, oh, it's it's it's uh. They don't believe
- 2:07:37Speaker 1: in multiculture. Not in the countrary. It's it's unbelievably multicultural.
- 2:07:41Speaker 1: There are Skenazi Jews from all parts of Europe. There's
- 2:07:45Speaker 1: Fogging Jews from Northern Africa, the Jews from Iraq and
- 2:07:50Speaker 1: Yemen and and and Ethiopia. You know, black Jews with skin.
- 2:07:55Speaker 1: That's it's it's completely black. There are Jews from Central
- 2:08:02Speaker 1: Asia from who's Bikistan and Afghanistan and areas like that.
- 2:08:07Speaker 1: The Jews from India. They're even Jews that were born
- 2:08:11Speaker 1: in China. They might not be Chinese, but they were
- 2:08:15Speaker 1: raised in.
- 2:08:15Speaker 2: China and they bring a lot of that, you know.
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: And the Jewish cultures in each pace were different, The
- 2:08:23Speaker 1: ceremonies were different, the passages, you know, the holidays were
- 2:08:27Speaker 1: celebrated differently, they didn't. So it's a very much a
- 2:08:32Speaker 1: place of mingling and again a melting part of different cultures,
- 2:08:38Speaker 1: and that's part of the intensity.
- 2:08:39Speaker 2: I think, Andrew.
- 2:08:43Speaker 1: The low character of these Conservatives stands out, the rankdous
- 2:08:47Speaker 1: honesty and lack of integrity, the pettiness and meanness. What
- 2:08:50Speaker 1: is to gain if they lose their soul on that
- 2:08:53Speaker 1: they ignore Christ? Yeah, I mean these are not smart people,
- 2:08:58Speaker 1: the manipulative people, just like Trump. These are people that
- 2:09:01Speaker 1: have embraced Trump, who's got the characteristics the character of
- 2:09:08Speaker 1: a mafia boss as president of the United States, just
- 2:09:12Speaker 1: that it brings them to such a low state that
- 2:09:16Speaker 1: everything else just seems Yeah, it doesn't seem that difficult, right, So.
- 2:09:26Speaker 2: Yeah, so the.
- 2:09:38Speaker 1: You know they are the Conservatives have become I mean,
- 2:09:43Speaker 1: they support a man who is inhaeritly dishonest and has
- 2:09:46Speaker 1: no integrity, So why would they have any Trump has
- 2:09:51Speaker 1: brought down the Republican Party to his level, and that's
- 2:09:54Speaker 1: what you're getting, Michael. What do you think of Ron DeSantis?
- 2:10:09Speaker 1: I don't think what he's done to cater to MAGA,
- 2:10:13Speaker 1: but Florida is thriving and he is a very smart,
- 2:10:16Speaker 1: competent leader. Paving the way in property tax abolition. Yeah,
- 2:10:19Speaker 1: I mean the property tax abolition is not as good
- 2:10:21Speaker 1: as I originally thought it was.
- 2:10:23Speaker 2: It's not for second homes.
- 2:10:25Speaker 1: It's up to certain level, so it's not as good
- 2:10:27Speaker 1: as I thought it was, but it's good. It's cutting
- 2:10:30Speaker 1: taxes catas to MAGA in all kinds of ways. There
- 2:10:35Speaker 1: was something that Florida just did was just horrific. You know,
- 2:10:38Speaker 1: they banned artificial meat, all kinds of stupid things. So
- 2:10:42Speaker 1: he's a real mixed bag, a real mixed bag who
- 2:10:46Speaker 1: I think has not lost some of the better ideas
- 2:10:52Speaker 1: the conservatives used to have, but it's trying to mingle
- 2:10:54Speaker 1: it and integrate it with MAGA and what is left
- 2:10:58Speaker 1: as a mishmash.
- 2:11:01Speaker 2: Liam.
- 2:11:01Speaker 1: How does Malay compare to Pinochet in terms of economic reforms.
- 2:11:06Speaker 2: I think they're very similar.
- 2:11:08Speaker 1: Pinochet went further partially because he was a dictator and
- 2:11:12Speaker 1: he could. But Pinochet didn't believe in any of their reforms.
- 2:11:15Speaker 1: Pinochet wasn't the driver of their reforms, the drivers of
- 2:11:20Speaker 1: the reforms of the Chicago Boys. Pinochet gave them the
- 2:11:23Speaker 1: economic rains out of desperation, not out of a not
- 2:11:27Speaker 1: out of agreement, out of any kind of sense of
- 2:11:31Speaker 1: free markets. Milay gets all the credit for what he's done.
- 2:11:36Speaker 1: Pinochet does not a pinochet again. Gave it out of
- 2:11:39Speaker 1: his sense of desperation. The economic reforms are deep in Chile,
- 2:11:44Speaker 1: but also they did them over a longer period of time,
- 2:11:47Speaker 1: so Milay is just starting. We'll see what happens over
- 2:11:50Speaker 1: the next to the ten years before we compare them. Right,
- 2:11:58Speaker 1: Jacob submitted the green card application from my wife last week.
- 2:12:02Speaker 1: I hope JD and his supporters feel five times the
- 2:12:05Speaker 1: anxiety what we had to go through. Yeah, I mean,
- 2:12:09Speaker 1: that's just horrible that it's so difficult, just horrible. Hopefully
- 2:12:14Speaker 1: it goes smoothly and congratulations Liam. Mathematical concepts part of
- 2:12:20Speaker 1: objectives to reality, objective reality like a perfect circle. Concepts
- 2:12:26Speaker 1: like infinity are important in mathematics, but don't seem to
- 2:12:29Speaker 1: correspond to reality. That's right. So, I mean mathematical concepts
- 2:12:38Speaker 1: are concepts, are abstractions. They you know, those abstractions can
- 2:12:46Speaker 1: can be understood in terms of things in reality, like
- 2:12:51Speaker 1: like circles, and you can imagine what a perfect circle
- 2:12:54Speaker 1: is versus circles. And but so mathematical concepts are abstractions
- 2:13:04Speaker 1: of things in reality, yes, but are they all of
- 2:13:09Speaker 1: them objective reality?
- 2:13:11Speaker 2: No?
- 2:13:12Speaker 1: I mean some are on, some are not right. So
- 2:13:15Speaker 1: infinity doesn't think there's no such thing as infinity. I mean,
- 2:13:21Speaker 1: this is a great question for Harry Binswunger, who's done
- 2:13:24Speaker 1: a lot of work in the philosophy of mathematics. You know,
- 2:13:28Speaker 1: some mathematical concepts are but relationships. Some mathematical concepts, you know,
- 2:13:34Speaker 1: correspond to mathematics. I mean, ultimately it's all reducible to reality,
- 2:13:39Speaker 1: but it requires multiple steps because some mathematical concepts of
- 2:13:44Speaker 1: high level abstractions, but all of them are reducible to
- 2:13:48Speaker 1: phenomena in reality.
- 2:13:51Speaker 2: Michael.
- 2:13:52Speaker 1: While both left and right hate the Constitution, they use
- 2:13:55Speaker 1: it when opposing party is in power to limit their
- 2:13:58Speaker 1: power freedom by act and convenience rather than principle.
- 2:14:02Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely so.
- 2:14:04Speaker 1: They're both use the Constitution to the extent that it
- 2:14:07Speaker 1: supports their agenda, and they'll be mad at the Constitution
- 2:14:11Speaker 1: to the extent that it restricts their ability to.
- 2:14:14Speaker 2: Do the things that they would want to do. Crypto fanatic.
- 2:14:20Speaker 1: If economy and state are separate, should incorporation laws exist, Yes,
- 2:14:25Speaker 1: just like marriage laws should exist. And there's a bunch
- 2:14:27Speaker 1: of others. It's just a shorthand for contracts. Incorporation could
- 2:14:33Speaker 1: exist without without incorporation laws, but incorporation laws and.
- 2:14:39Speaker 2: Unefficient mechanism. And given that.
- 2:14:44Speaker 1: These particular types of contracts are going to be adjudicated
- 2:14:48Speaker 1: in courts, in state courts, a standardized format for them,
- 2:14:54Speaker 1: it is a huge advantage. So having incorporation laws makes
- 2:14:57Speaker 1: a lot of stense. It also makes sense that they're
- 2:14:59Speaker 1: at the eight level, and there's some competition between states
- 2:15:02Speaker 1: in terms of what incorporation laws each state has, and
- 2:15:06Speaker 1: corporations can move from one to the other and then
- 2:15:09Speaker 1: and then the courts interpret them. So yeah, absolutely, you know,
- 2:15:13Speaker 1: there's nothing statist or interventionist about incorporation laws. They're just
- 2:15:21Speaker 1: setting a particular type of contract that people can either
- 2:15:25Speaker 1: use or not use. They can try to form different
- 2:15:28Speaker 1: types of corporations with different types of contracts, and you
- 2:15:32Speaker 1: can know incorporation laws. That would be fine. Michael, since
- 2:15:36Speaker 1: America is there's's only ally, doesn't continue I have to
- 2:15:40Speaker 1: bow down to Trump.
- 2:15:42Speaker 2: Well, if he.
- 2:15:43Speaker 1: Thinks that Asrael's that that is true, that it's an
- 2:15:46Speaker 1: only ally, I'm not sure that's true. But if he
- 2:15:49Speaker 1: thinks that's true, and if he thinks that, Trump will
- 2:15:57Speaker 1: will several relationships with his roll, or penalize him significantly
- 2:16:02Speaker 1: if he, you know, doesn't agree with him.
- 2:16:06Speaker 2: I don't think that will happen.
- 2:16:07Speaker 1: I don't think Trump will just say if you don't
- 2:16:09Speaker 1: do what I tell me, tell you, we're going to
- 2:16:11Speaker 1: walk away. Now, that might happen one day, but I
- 2:16:15Speaker 1: don't think America is in that position right now. So
- 2:16:18Speaker 1: I think Natagniel has a lot of leeway to say
- 2:16:20Speaker 1: no to Trump if he wants to, because Trump on
- 2:16:24Speaker 1: the stands, or at least people some of the people
- 2:16:26Speaker 1: around Trump at the stand that America needs his roll.
- 2:16:35Speaker 1: Michael says, can he try and get on Logan Paul's podcast.
- 2:16:39Speaker 1: He's had Peter schiff On and interviews all the famous
- 2:16:42Speaker 1: people who've moved to Puerto Rico. I mean, I guess
- 2:16:47Speaker 1: I'm not famous because he has in contact with me.
- 2:16:49Speaker 1: But I will try, so I will flag that and
- 2:16:52Speaker 1: I will try. Though sheanist. I know it was a
- 2:16:56Speaker 1: while ago, but tucka covering the Russian Grocery Store of
- 2:16:59Speaker 1: my of Michael Moore's coverage of Cuba excellent comparison. Absolutely,
- 2:17:05Speaker 1: I didn't think of it when I talked about Tucker's
- 2:17:08Speaker 1: covering the grocery store. But you're absolutely right. The parallel
- 2:17:11Speaker 1: is striking, all right, Crypto fanatic. Do you think any
- 2:17:19Speaker 1: forms of infrastructure like Rhodes Bridge's airport's ports, rail, electric
- 2:17:23Speaker 1: good pipeline d DA DA DA DA should be government
- 2:17:26Speaker 1: owned at all or all be private? All be private?
- 2:17:29Speaker 1: I think they should all everything should be private. I
- 2:17:32Speaker 1: mean a few military bases and a few buildings that
- 2:17:34Speaker 1: the government needs in order to run things.
- 2:17:37Speaker 2: That's it.
- 2:17:37Speaker 1: Everything else should be private. And even though it should
- 2:17:39Speaker 1: probably be private and least of the government Tom having
- 2:17:46Speaker 1: more than one passport is not a bad thing. Patriotism
- 2:17:49Speaker 1: does not mean you should only have the ability to
- 2:17:51Speaker 1: live in one country thoughts.
- 2:17:53Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think that's absolutely right.
- 2:17:55Speaker 1: You can be a patriot and also realize that a
- 2:17:59Speaker 1: your country can can go bad pretty quickly and you'll
- 2:18:02Speaker 1: want to go somewhere else. You can be a patriot
- 2:18:05Speaker 1: and still want the convenience of having a separate passport
- 2:18:08Speaker 1: that allows you to travel easily.
- 2:18:10Speaker 2: Through other countries and around the world.
- 2:18:12Speaker 1: An American passport, for example, today, is not a particularly
- 2:18:15Speaker 1: good passport. A lot of countries around the world require
- 2:18:19Speaker 1: Americans to get visas, having you know, some of European
- 2:18:24Speaker 1: Union passports are much much allow for much easier movement
- 2:18:30Speaker 1: around the world without visas, And a lot of the
- 2:18:33Speaker 1: reason countries put visas on Americans is because America puts
- 2:18:36Speaker 1: visas on them, so they reciprocate. So yes, I think
- 2:18:40Speaker 1: getting a second or third or fourth passport is all
- 2:18:43Speaker 1: good and should be encouraged, even if you're a patriot Enrick.
- 2:18:49Speaker 1: Rather than left and right coalescing on environmentalism, they look
- 2:18:54Speaker 1: to be coming together on anti semitism. Shall we soon
- 2:18:56Speaker 1: find from both parties anti Semitic leaders and president? You know,
- 2:19:02Speaker 1: I still think that anti Semitism as a phenomena is
- 2:19:06Speaker 1: that the fringes and the margins. It's millions of people,
- 2:19:10Speaker 1: but it's not it's not the mainstream, and we'll see
- 2:19:14Speaker 1: if it gets mainstreams. Whereas I do think I envymelism
- 2:19:17Speaker 1: is mainstreamed. And we saw that when.
- 2:19:21Speaker 2: Maga freaked out over the idea that.
- 2:19:26Speaker 1: One of the senators had to privatize federal land in
- 2:19:30Speaker 1: the West and use it for development, particularly for housing,
- 2:19:34Speaker 1: and MAGA freaked out, as did the environmentalists, and they
- 2:19:39Speaker 1: showed that they're very environmentalist. And I think in environmentism
- 2:19:41Speaker 1: is still much more of a mainstream topic. We'll see
- 2:19:46Speaker 1: how all of this evolves. We'll see how all of
- 2:19:49Speaker 1: this evolves, and how big the anti Semitism becomes, and
- 2:19:54Speaker 1: how widespread it becomes, how mainstream it becomes. It's definitely
- 2:19:57Speaker 1: being mainstreamed into the Republican conservative movement in Tamaga. But
- 2:20:02Speaker 1: whether it grows beyond that, we'll see. Peter, Christian nations
- 2:20:08Speaker 1: in history, Fankish and Holy Roman Empire, Calvin's Geneva, Cromwell's England,
- 2:20:14Speaker 1: precisely what the founding fathers repudiated. Yes, they were rejected
- 2:20:20Speaker 1: all of those. All of those they rejected the and
- 2:20:25Speaker 1: they rejected and were really upset by the religious wars,
- 2:20:29Speaker 1: the thirty year ward one hundred year War, Protestants and
- 2:20:32Speaker 1: Catholics killing one another. You know, they suddenly rejected Calvin's
- 2:20:38Speaker 1: Geneva and the persecution of of people who had different
- 2:20:43Speaker 1: notions of Christianity. Absolutely, Peter Greek agree with you completely, Andrew.
- 2:20:51Speaker 1: Love is stronger than hate if created by oneself by
- 2:20:55Speaker 1: rational means. Is they even such a thing as altruistic love,
- 2:21:00Speaker 1: love through self sacrifice? No, I don't think there's such
- 2:21:03Speaker 1: a thing as altruistical love. I think to the extent
- 2:21:06Speaker 1: that people love, to that extent, they are being self
- 2:21:10Speaker 1: interested and people are compartmentalized and mixed, But to the
- 2:21:13Speaker 1: extent that they love, they're being self interested. All Right,
- 2:21:18Speaker 1: We've got a few remaining and then I need to
- 2:21:20Speaker 1: get to bed, and pokey, Why is the moral always
- 2:21:28Speaker 1: the practical? What is the link between the two? And
- 2:21:31Speaker 1: are their cases? You can think of? Whether this does
- 2:21:33Speaker 1: not hold?
- 2:21:35Speaker 2: No, I mean I think it holds.
- 2:21:40Speaker 1: It holds in irrational society, and over the long run,
- 2:21:43Speaker 1: it doesn't hold in an irrational society. Necessarily, sometimes the
- 2:21:48Speaker 1: moral can can can can lead to death and destruction,
- 2:21:53Speaker 1: and in an irrational world dominated about irrationality. I mean,
- 2:22:00Speaker 1: it's it's I'd have to give a long answer, and
- 2:22:02Speaker 1: I don't have the voice, but I'm losing my voice,
- 2:22:05Speaker 1: and I don't have the time for it, and I'm
- 2:22:07Speaker 1: and it's late, but I'll say this. I mean, where
- 2:22:13Speaker 1: does morality come from? How do we learn moral truths?
- 2:22:20Speaker 2: We learn moral.
- 2:22:20Speaker 1: Truths by by two processes. Fundamentally, one is identifying the
- 2:22:25Speaker 1: nature i e. The practical nature of man?
- 2:22:31Speaker 2: What is man? How does man function in the world?
- 2:22:36Speaker 1: And that's how we get he's a rational being and
- 2:22:38Speaker 1: reason being, you know, a cardinal value, and you know
- 2:22:47Speaker 1: what makes it possible for man to live successfully in
- 2:22:51Speaker 1: the world, which is an empirical, inductive you know, evaluation.
- 2:22:57Speaker 1: So when it looks at the world and see rationality,
- 2:23:01Speaker 1: reason is man's means of survival. It just you know,
- 2:23:06Speaker 1: you see that that's an inductive truth and reason both
- 2:23:12Speaker 1: logically requires, for example, honesty because reason requires fact fact facts,
- 2:23:18Speaker 1: but also when one observes in reality, honesty works and
- 2:23:23Speaker 1: dishonesty doesn't.
- 2:23:25Speaker 2: So the whole way in which the objective's morality is
- 2:23:31Speaker 2: derived is by looking at what works.
- 2:23:38Speaker 1: And here what we mean by what works is what
- 2:23:41Speaker 1: leads to human survival. So them all in a sense
- 2:23:46Speaker 1: is derived from the practical. It's derived from, you know,
- 2:23:57Speaker 1: looking at the world, observing reality and figuring out what
- 2:24:11Speaker 1: right and wrong is. What right is is that which
- 2:24:15Speaker 1: leads the human flourishing. What's wrong is that which destroys it.
- 2:24:23Speaker 1: So you know, it's built.
- 2:24:26Speaker 2: In the mall is the practical.
- 2:24:27Speaker 1: The practical is the mall is built into objectivism.
- 2:24:37Speaker 2: So the irrational.
- 2:24:40Speaker 1: We can observe is impractical, and part of the reason
- 2:24:44Speaker 1: it's evil is. I mean, it's evil because it's impractical,
- 2:24:49Speaker 1: because it leads to bad outcomes for you as an individual.
- 2:24:53Speaker 1: So it's it's circular in essence impoquy. Should a defending
- 2:25:07Speaker 1: nation ever take any precautions to avoid civilian casualties in
- 2:25:11Speaker 1: a case where the cost is minimal?
- 2:25:13Speaker 2: Why or why not?
- 2:25:16Speaker 1: Well, I mean there's no reason to gratuitously kill people.
- 2:25:22Speaker 1: Human life has value, so there's no reason to gratuously
- 2:25:25Speaker 1: do it. So if there's no purpose in killing people,
- 2:25:28Speaker 1: then you shouldn't kill them, and to that extent, your
- 2:25:32Speaker 1: void civilian casualties when the civilian casualties are not necessary
- 2:25:36Speaker 1: for victory. But in any situation where civilian casualties are
- 2:25:40Speaker 1: necessary for victory, unnecessary to a victory, and at a
- 2:25:45Speaker 1: minimal cost to yourself and a minimum cost of your
- 2:25:47Speaker 1: own people's lives.
- 2:25:49Speaker 2: Then you should not take precautions.
- 2:25:54Speaker 1: So the standard is the extent to which it's going
- 2:26:00Speaker 1: to demand a sacrifice of your people or not it's
- 2:26:03Speaker 1: going to demand a sacrifice of you or not it's
- 2:26:05Speaker 1: going to prevent you from achieving your goal on it,
- 2:26:07Speaker 1: that's the stand about what you measure. Tyler says, how
- 2:26:11Speaker 1: you on I really enjoyed Peacock's History of Philosophy lectures. Yeah,
- 2:26:14Speaker 1: they're great. I noticed the con section was missing from
- 2:26:17Speaker 1: the book version. Any idea why it was left out?
- 2:26:21Speaker 2: Just curious? Was kant left out?
- 2:26:25Speaker 1: I think because Leonard asked that the book version only
- 2:26:28Speaker 1: include part one, the pre Kantient I think he I
- 2:26:34Speaker 1: don't know, you'd have to. I think if I recall,
- 2:26:37Speaker 1: and granted, I might recall wrong, but I think if
- 2:26:39Speaker 1: I recall, he said that he was a lot more
- 2:26:42Speaker 1: confident in the course of the truth of the pre content,
- 2:26:48Speaker 1: and that he was in his confident that everything he
- 2:26:52Speaker 1: said was accurate regarding the more modern philosophers.
- 2:26:58Speaker 2: I think the whole thing is fantastic. But that is
- 2:27:02Speaker 2: if I recall, that is what he said.
- 2:27:03Speaker 1: So that's why he only wanted it in writing the
- 2:27:08Speaker 1: pre Kantian segments part one. But luckily you can still
- 2:27:14Speaker 1: get in an audio and Pokey, what's your take on IP?
- 2:27:22Speaker 1: Intellectual property and free state? If it's a natural right,
- 2:27:26Speaker 1: why does it expire? Wouldn't permanent IP paralyzed innovation since
- 2:27:30Speaker 1: all progress builds and prior ideas. Yes, that's why it expires,
- 2:27:34Speaker 1: So it should expire. But they should be a period.
- 2:27:38Speaker 1: It's a former property and the property owner should have
- 2:27:42Speaker 1: the ability to profit from his property for a period.
- 2:27:49Speaker 1: Iinman has a very good essay on this and capitalism
- 2:27:51Speaker 1: and annoying ideal. I encourage you to read it. She
- 2:27:54Speaker 1: goes into great lengths in defending her position about why
- 2:27:58Speaker 1: copyright IP generally is valid and why you know, the
- 2:28:04Speaker 1: length of time shouldn't be forever, you know, and why
- 2:28:11Speaker 1: having a specific length of time is not arbitrary. It's about.
- 2:28:18Speaker 2: It's about the the lifetime of the of the producer.
- 2:28:25Speaker 1: It's also about the ability to profit from that property
- 2:28:30Speaker 1: before it becomes uh goes into the public domain and
- 2:28:35Speaker 1: goes to aid in the process of ideas building on ideas.
- 2:28:41Speaker 1: But read the essay much better explanation there. And what
- 2:28:46Speaker 1: do you think of the criticism of the objective's morality
- 2:28:49Speaker 1: that it's focused on independent judgment and consistency demand too
- 2:28:53Speaker 1: much of people. I mean, I don't feel like it's
- 2:28:58Speaker 1: too much. I mean I don't know. I know a
- 2:29:02Speaker 1: lot of people who embrace it and do it and
- 2:29:04Speaker 1: are fine with it, So I'm not sure. I've never
- 2:29:06Speaker 1: seen that criticism. It requires work, it requires being independent,
- 2:29:13Speaker 1: It requires having self esteem, it requires not caving to
- 2:29:16Speaker 1: the mob.
- 2:29:18Speaker 2: That all requires effort, but it's doable for every human being.
- 2:29:23Speaker 1: I know people of all kinds of intellectual abilities that
- 2:29:27Speaker 1: have embraced that idea. And even before objectivism, there were
- 2:29:31Speaker 1: people who embraced independent judgment and stood up to the mob.
- 2:29:34Speaker 1: So I don't understand why that is something that's beyond
- 2:29:40Speaker 1: people's reach. Necessarily, it is beyond people's reach because they
- 2:29:46Speaker 1: choose not to embrace it. Evan, what do you think
- 2:29:50Speaker 1: about altruism and a group of infantry in battle? A
- 2:29:55Speaker 1: unit is much more effective if everyone has each other's
- 2:29:58Speaker 1: back to the point where they were willing to sacrifice
- 2:30:01Speaker 1: and risk for each other.
- 2:30:03Speaker 2: So I think that I think that altruism is destructive
- 2:30:12Speaker 2: for a unit like that.
- 2:30:14Speaker 1: I think a unit in battle functions much much better
- 2:30:18Speaker 1: if they all understand why it's.
- 2:30:20Speaker 2: In their self interest to function as a unit. It's
- 2:30:25Speaker 2: just like a team.
- 2:30:26Speaker 1: Like a teamwork in a business doesn't require you to
- 2:30:31Speaker 1: accept the collective mind collective consciousness because there is none.
- 2:30:35Speaker 1: It requires you to be an independent thinker and contribute
- 2:30:38Speaker 1: to the team and work with others to improve and
- 2:30:42Speaker 1: enhance ideas. The same thing is to in battle. You
- 2:30:47Speaker 1: want independent thinkers who understand why they're they, who understand
- 2:30:51Speaker 1: why the unit has to function together, and who have
- 2:30:55Speaker 1: a real authentic camaraderie friendship with the other people around them.
- 2:31:01Speaker 2: Now, I don't think that a good unit.
- 2:31:04Speaker 1: In battle requires people to sacrifice to one another. So,
- 2:31:07Speaker 1: for example, you're storming a position and the guy on
- 2:31:10Speaker 1: your right gets hit. What do you do do You
- 2:31:14Speaker 1: continue storming the position and you go take care of
- 2:31:16Speaker 1: the guy who's been hit. Well, victory demands that you
- 2:31:19Speaker 1: continue storming the position, and afterwards you go take care
- 2:31:22Speaker 1: of your buddy who got hit. But if your focus
- 2:31:25Speaker 1: is completely on your body, then you stop the advance
- 2:31:28Speaker 1: and you take care of the wounded, and you forget
- 2:31:30Speaker 1: about winning the war. So it's not at all clear
- 2:31:34Speaker 1: to me that sacrifice in that sense is required. Risk
- 2:31:38Speaker 1: taking is required. But you signed up for the military.
- 2:31:41Speaker 1: This is why military should be voluntary. You sign up
- 2:31:43Speaker 1: for the military. You signed up to take risk, not
- 2:31:46Speaker 1: to sacrifice, but to take risk for the values that
- 2:31:49Speaker 1: you believe in and for the people in your team.
- 2:31:53Speaker 2: I don't consider that sacrifice. And again, you have to
- 2:31:56Speaker 2: think about what do you want.
- 2:31:58Speaker 1: This team to do what is required to win a battle,
- 2:32:02Speaker 1: to win a war, to win to win a to
- 2:32:04Speaker 1: win a skirmish. And and what's required is everybody thinking,
- 2:32:09Speaker 1: everybody being an independent thinker, but within the context of
- 2:32:13Speaker 1: a team, within the context of a group that is
- 2:32:17Speaker 1: trying to achieve a goal together. And and and that
- 2:32:24Speaker 1: means sometimes you have to just follow orders. That means
- 2:32:28Speaker 1: that you're going to take risks. That means that you
- 2:32:30Speaker 1: have to watch what your other soldiers are doing. And
- 2:32:34Speaker 1: and and yes, cover for them, cover them, because that's
- 2:32:38Speaker 1: part of the mission. And that's part of how you
- 2:32:39Speaker 1: attain the goal. But it's not it's not a sacrifice.
- 2:32:42Speaker 1: You're you're you're aiming towards a goal that's very, very
- 2:32:45Speaker 1: very important to you. This is why you volunteered to
- 2:32:47Speaker 1: serve in this military. Again, why I believe in one
- 2:32:50Speaker 1: of the reasons I believe in voluntary military servant non
- 2:32:53Speaker 1: a conscription. Chris, what did Einran think of Norman Rockwell,
- 2:32:59Speaker 1: what do you think of Rockwall? Why was normal rockwall
- 2:33:03Speaker 1: art so disliked? Is his artwork idealistic or overly sentimental?
- 2:33:07Speaker 1: So I think she thought of I mean, I don't
- 2:33:10Speaker 1: know exactly what she thought of Rockwell, I vaguely recalled it.
- 2:33:13Speaker 2: There's something there.
- 2:33:14Speaker 1: I mean, look, rockwall is an illustrator. He's a he's
- 2:33:17Speaker 1: not a painter. He's a borderline artist because his stuff
- 2:33:24Speaker 1: is postery. It's it's illustrations. It's very in your face
- 2:33:30Speaker 1: and in that sense, yeah, it's it's sentimental. But there's
- 2:33:34Speaker 1: a lot of good art that's sentimental. Rockwall Is is
- 2:33:38Speaker 1: a good illustrator, but he's not a great artist. I
- 2:33:45Speaker 1: don't know why it was disliked. It wasn't disliked. It
- 2:33:47Speaker 1: was actually liked a lot. It made the covers of
- 2:33:50Speaker 1: magazines that was all over the place. And remember it
- 2:33:52Speaker 1: was covers of magazines. Most of his paintings will covers
- 2:33:55Speaker 1: of magazines, which again that's illustration.
- 2:33:58Speaker 2: That's not art. It's not fine art.
- 2:34:02Speaker 1: Uh, there's no The themes are very obvious, there's no sophistication,
- 2:34:08Speaker 1: there's you know, it's it's it's it's in your face
- 2:34:12Speaker 1: in a way that art should not be.
- 2:34:17Speaker 2: So I I think normal.
- 2:34:18Speaker 1: I enjoyed normal Walkwell. I think a lot of his
- 2:34:20Speaker 1: stuff is fun. Uh, it's funny, it's fun. Some of
- 2:34:25Speaker 1: his idealistic and and and good like I love. The
- 2:34:30Speaker 1: one where the guy is standing up. The free speech
- 2:34:32Speaker 1: one is very good. Rockwell generally was kind of a
- 2:34:36Speaker 1: New Deal democrat, so he was he was, you know,
- 2:34:40Speaker 1: he illustrated much of Roosevelt's New Deal ideals. He's a naturalist.
- 2:34:47Speaker 1: He portrays, for the most body, portrays man as he is.
- 2:34:51Speaker 1: He portrays scenes out of daily life. Again, part of
- 2:34:54Speaker 1: what makes him not that interesting but kind of fun
- 2:34:57Speaker 1: and enjoyable. I wouldn't hang a normal walker painting on
- 2:35:00Speaker 1: my wall, but I don't mind, you know. I enjoy
- 2:35:03Speaker 1: seeing his stuff and thumbing through a book of his
- 2:35:06Speaker 1: work and smiling and enjoying it. But it's a superficial enjoyment. Schasberg.
- 2:35:15Speaker 1: To love is the value at the shrugged a certain
- 2:35:19Speaker 1: person's speech, not to be mentioned because we don't want
- 2:35:21Speaker 1: to give anything away. Yes, to love is to value.
- 2:35:24Speaker 1: Love is there is an expression of one's highest value.
- 2:35:28Speaker 1: It's it's a manifestation one's highest value. All right, last question,
- 2:35:34Speaker 1: as I'm losing my voice. I understand Rand's idea of
- 2:35:37Speaker 1: self interest, but why can't a gang be self interested
- 2:35:40Speaker 1: within their world? Their interest is making money and exploiting. Well,
- 2:35:46Speaker 1: because a gang cannot be happy a gang cannot flourish
- 2:35:53Speaker 1: qua gang. It can only you know, so a group
- 2:35:57Speaker 1: can only flourish the extent it's individuals flourish at the
- 2:36:00Speaker 1: base of a gang. At the base of a gang
- 2:36:02Speaker 1: of a group as individuals, and if they if they
- 2:36:08Speaker 1: succeed by exploiting and stealing and cheating and robbing, they succeed.
- 2:36:15Speaker 2: Materially.
- 2:36:17Speaker 1: But all of that behavior is destructive spiritually. It destroys
- 2:36:23Speaker 1: their soul, It destroys their integrity, it destroys the ability
- 2:36:27Speaker 1: to be moral as individuals. And again, happiness and flourishing
- 2:36:30Speaker 1: can only be achieved as individuals. So a gang is
- 2:36:38Speaker 1: not a thing. A gang is just a bunch of
- 2:36:40Speaker 1: individuals committing crimes together. And because they're committing crimes, because
- 2:36:47Speaker 1: they're violating rational principles as individuals, they cannot flourish and
- 2:36:52Speaker 1: they cannot be happy, and they suffer the consequences. Live
- 2:36:55Speaker 1: by the sword, Die by the sword. All right, Thank
- 2:37:01Speaker 1: you guys, Sorry for the technical problem in the middle.
- 2:37:03Speaker 1: I'm glad we recovered. I'm glad you all stuck with it.
- 2:37:07Speaker 1: Thank you for joining me. Thanks Troy for the five
- 2:37:11Speaker 1: Australian really really appreciate that. Thanks to all other Michael
- 2:37:18Speaker 1: and all the other supporters. We had a lot of
- 2:37:21Speaker 1: fifty dollars contributors. Thank you the super chattters, thank you
- 2:37:24Speaker 1: the stickers.
- 2:37:26Speaker 2: I will see you. I'm not sure when we'll.
- 2:37:30Speaker 1: Play it day by day, but at the latest on Saturday.
- 2:37:35Speaker 1: But I'm going to be traveling all this week in Europe.
- 2:37:39Speaker 1: Hopefully i'll see some of you tomorrow in Vienna. Bye everybody,
