• 0:02
  Speaker 1: A lot of them folded the metal of wo and
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: in individual ones. This is the show, all right, everybody,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: welcome to here, one book show on this Friday. The
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: weekend is here, Friday, December twelfth, December twelfth. I just
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: I was just looking at the chat. And Andrew is
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: just on his first hundred dollars super Chat. Andrew spends
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: a lot of money on the super Chat, you know,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: pretty much every day, and that was his first hundred dollars.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: So thank you, Andrew. That's great. We'll get to it
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: as I'm pretty sure question number one when we get
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to when we get to the super Chat questions. But
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: you guys should be inspired by Andrew and want to,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: for completely first handed reasons want to match his level
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: of contribution. Thank you, Andrew. I appreciate it. All right,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Let's see what did I want to say Tomorrow? Tomorrow
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: we're going to do. You know, I said, we're going
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: to do three topics on Saturdays. We're going to do
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a meaning Western civilization and capitalism. So tomorrow's the first capitalism,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: So it'll be capitalism and immigration. We'll talk about capitalism
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: and immigration. Haven't talked about immigration in a long time.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I've gotten into a lot of trouble on Twitter because
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: of my stance at immigration. So another opportunity to clarify it,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: but more importantly to integrate it without conception of capitalism.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Can you be pro capitalism and anti immigration? You know,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: what is it we're advocating for as an ideal and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: what is it ultimately that we're advocating for, as you know,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: is practical policy in the world in which we live. H.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: So it will be about capitalism in theory and and
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of course in in in practice today. So we'll do
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: a show on capitalism and immigration. Uh, let's see Sunday.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: There will be a members only show Sunday members only show.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Don't miss out on this, uh, And it'll be a
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: discussion of Iyeman's essay The Missing Link. The Missing Link,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: which I think is is really a brilliant essay, as
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: all of our essays are, but this one really I
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: get a lot of questions that, you know, how people
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: can do this and why people the way they are,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and why can't we convince people? And you know, is
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: it evasion? Is it? This? Is it that? What's going on? Well,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: we'll talk about that in this essay because it's it's
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: it's very very deep, very h and really a kind
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: of a foundational explanation for this date of the world
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: in which we live. It's called the Missing Link. And
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and we'll talk about that on Sunday. So and then
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: next week we'll be back to our regular schedule. Uh
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: is next week Christmas? No, two weeks from now is Christmas?
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: So no, no Christmas break next week? All right, what else?
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I think that's it. I think we can jump into
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: our news show. So okay, so let's start with I
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: thought we'd talked a little bit about the rise of
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the populist rights in Europe. You know, we already know
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: they've risen, but where they are, what the status is today,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: what the projections are into the future, and and what
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: is going on? And and this is for a couple
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: of reasons. One, it's like, it looks like the Econmors
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: magazine basically just dedicated half the magazine this week to
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the Europe's populist right. But I think that is in
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the context of and importantly in the context of the
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: an article coming out of Non Nautical. It comes out
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: of the National Security Strategy document that the Trump administration
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: put out that basically advocates for the United States two
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: help nudge Proud Europe into the direction of the populist right.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: That is what they what what the document calls the
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: patriotic right, but what they mean is is the populist
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: right reform in England. Uh, you know, the a f
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: D in Germany. We know that because JD. Vance has
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: told us that he supports them, and and uh the
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: National Rally, Uh, Mariella Penn's party in France. These are
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: the big you know, the big parties. Uh. Of course
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: there's there are rising populist right parties in Spain and Portugal.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: We have a populist right prime minister in Italy. We'll
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: talk about her, Maloney. So so it's already happened in Italy,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: although whether she governs that way is is is questionable.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: So anyway, this is this is going to be this,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: so let's talk about that. So it's it's really influenced
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: by this NSS document about this. And of course there's
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: there's already a long standing populist right government in Hungary. Uh,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: there's a populist right government in in Slovakia, and uh
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: you other you know, we've seen kind of go up
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: and down in places like the Netherlands and the rising
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: populist right political parties in Sweden, in Denmark, although and
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: of course in Poland the populist right political party governed
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: for many years and the President of Poland is from
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: their political party. So in much of Europe the power
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: of the populist right is significant already. And yet these
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: three major big economies in Europe. Fans in Germany, in
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the EU, UK outside of the EU, but still part
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: of we think Europe. Although don't get offended Europeans that
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: the UK is part of you and UK don't get
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: offended that I think that you're part of Europe. But
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: you guys are, and so that is so those political parties,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: those three that we talked about are the most significant.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: So what's going on in Europe, I mean, what was
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: seeing in Europe? A really two phenomena that I think
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: to some extent. A related one is the failure of
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: the mixed economy. We've seen that all over the world.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: We've seen that in the United States, We're seeing it everyway.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: The mixed economy is we know it, the massive welfare state,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the regulatory state. And in Europe this is particularly true
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: given that a lot of the regulations come down from Brussels,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: imposed on national governments, from bureaucracy in in Brussels. But
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the welfare state is local. But we're seeing welfare states
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: and we're seeing heavy, heavy regulations, and the result of
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: that is the result of that is stagnation. And one
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of the things that welfare state does, and this is
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: only reinforced by stagnation, is what the welfare state and
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the regulatory state, the mixed economy now the words, does
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: is that it increases pressure group politics. It turns everybody
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: against everybody. Everybody wants the lobby government for its piece
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: of a pie, a national budget. The more the state
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: involves itself in every aspect of life, the more if
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: you're gaining, I'm losing. The government has a pretty much
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: finite pie. The more we're going to fight over the
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: benefits that are being distributed, who gets taxed, how high
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: the taxes should be, what kind of taxes should they be,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: And then once the revenue comes in, who gets the money,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Which warfare programs are good, which warfare programs are bad.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: You know which groups need to be subsidized, which companies
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: us to be subsidized. And then you've got regulations in
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: company companies, you know, encouraging regulations that prohibit competition, new
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: companies trying to get rid of the publition and competition,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: trying to to trying to innovate and compete. You've got
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a company, you know, lobbying around merchants and acquisitions, and
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: lobbying around new industries, and lobbying about pretty much everything
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: government contracts, because the government. The more you make the
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: government powerful, the more you give it control over the economy,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: the more it affects people's lives, the more people are
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: going to be engaged in politics. And to that stagnation,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: in other words, a pie that is not going or
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: that is going very slowly, and people who feel like
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and feel legitimately to some extent, unlike the United States
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: and Europe, this is legitimate that aren't progressing, not getting better.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Economies that grow at one percent or less so in
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Germany's case, actually shrink, real losses of jobs in historical
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: sectors like manufacturing in Germany, and what you get is
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: real existential angst and more of the lobbying, more of
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the trying to get a piece of the pie, a
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: bigger piece of the pie, because the pie now is static,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: maybe even shrinking, like in Germany. So once you destroy
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the wealth creating engine, people become more desperate and people
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: are hustling just to exploit whatever they can from the
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: existing wealth creation that is happening. So it becomes more
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: difficult to find taxes revenue, it becomes more difficult to
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: figure out who to distribute it to. It becomes more
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: difficult to hand out all the favors that politicians want
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to hand out because there's not enough money there. So
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: you get more and more claims against the rich. You
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: get more and more claims against those parts of the
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: country that seems to be doing okay, and and and
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: and need to be more exploited for the sake of
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: those parts of the country they're doing badly. So so
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: a big aspect of the rise of the populist right.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: I think the biggest aspect is is stagnant economies. Stagnant economies,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: stagnant mixed economies. And if for they're right for pressure groups,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: those pressure groups become little tribes and everybody is hustling,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: and everybody's desperate. And then if you add to that,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: like throwing massive amount of fuel onto the fire, is
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: mass migration, large migration into these countries from feign cultures,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: primarily many of whom are Muslim, which which is a
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: whole of course, other set of problems because Islam, Islam,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: at least when taken seriously, is so hostile to the West,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: at least taken seriously in today's context. I'm just I'm
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: just listening to a book on Andalasia, on on on
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: the on Spain, on the the Islamic conquest of Spain
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: and then the Christian conquest of you know, the reconquest
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: of Spain. Uh. And it's fascinating, It's it's really really
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: interesting that history. Another time, we'll we'll talk about that, Yeah,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you know, we'll talk about all of that, and and
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: how Islam has changed for a golden age of the
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: past to what it is today. But the reality is
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: particularly starting at twenty fifteen, but really before that, even
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: just migration within Europe, I mean, a big part of
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Brexit was britg frustration not a Muslim immigrants, not an
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: immigrants that looked different than them. A big part of
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: it was frustration at Polish immigrants, immigrants in Eastern Europe,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: who a lot of Brits felt were taking their jobs.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: But the big Muslim migration at twenty fifteen during the
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Syrian Civil War, and Angela Merkle's willingness to just open
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: up the doors and let everybody in, the willingness of
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: countries like Germany and Sweden at least in those days,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: to fully subsidize these immigrants, that is, to give them
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: a check immediately upon arrival, and to give them housing
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: and to prioritize they're housing above housing for Germans created
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: an even biggest sense of zero sum. Now we've got
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: this pie, the pie is not growing, and now there
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: are more claimants on the pie, the more people who
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: want to peace, the more people in the warfare system
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: who are taking some of this revenue. Now this is
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: particularly affected Germany, it's some extent affected France. France has
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: kind of being boiling with this issue of migrants and
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: particularly Muslims for a long long time because they had
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: basically an open door policy for former colonies, and that
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: meant Algeria and other parts of Northern Africa. Many, many,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: many Muslim migrants came into France for many years from
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: those countries and then from Africa, and of course then
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: you get waves of illegal migration. You know, desperate Africans
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: getting to the shores of North Africa and just going
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: on boats and crossing the Mediterranean and trying to get wherever.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: They all want to go to Germany because Germany is
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: where you get a where you get a check. But
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: many of them, you know, are in Portugal and Spain
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: and in Italy and other countries as they make their
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: way to the Promised Land, which is Germany. So a
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: big migration that are people who look differently than you,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: many of whom have a religion different than yours, and
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: some of whom and it might just be a very
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: small minority, but it doesn't matter. It's a vocal minority,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: and it's and it's an active minority. It's an engaged minority.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: A minority of room literally explicitly say to you, we
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: want to take over. We want to undermine everything you
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: stand for. We are opposed, we are opposed to Western civilization.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: And this is what you get in England, but even
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: more so, I think in Germany and to some extent
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: in France, you get these migrants saying we want to
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: imposture real law, we want to be Islami into the country.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: You get chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood. You get mosques
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: run by the Muslim Brotherhood, Muslim Brotherhood representing the kind
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: of the Islamist gie hottiest views of Islam. Now, I
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: think those people on minority within Muslim migrants into your
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter. They scare the Jesus out of people.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: And what you see is that the existing political parties
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: have to end right, let's call them cent elephant center
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: right have no answer to the stagnation. They have no
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: answer to the desperation of people trying to grab on
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: to a pie that's not growing. They have no answer
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: on how to achieve economic growth. And then when confronted
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: with this issue of immigration, they don't know what to do,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: and they don't know what to say, and they don't
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: know how to defend it. I mean Andelmrokel's defense was basically,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: we were guilty of a holocaust, therefore we can't turn
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: people away, which is a pathetic response and nobody took
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: it seriously. In England you get Brexit, which happened before
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: the big influx of illegal immigrants, before people started really
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: worrying that much about Islam per se. It was much
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: more about just immigrants to other places. In Europe because
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: while England was part of Europe was part of the EU,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: sorry part of the EU, then there was free migration
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: within Europe. So it was Eastern Europeans that were worried
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: about anyway. They got Braxit, thinking okay, now we won't
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: have these European migrants. What they got instead were migrants
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: from former British colonies, and this has been much worse
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: for their experience because these migrants tend to be black, brown,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: they tend to come with different religions and different attitudes,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: and now the issue of islam Is becoming has become
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: much more significant in England. So one of the in Britain,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: one of the consequences Brexit is a completely different mix
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: of immigrants, which is making from an English perspective, from
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: a British perspective, it much much worse, much much more fear,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: much much more fear for their identity, for their culture,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: for their Western civilization. And in addition, if you remember
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Brexit I said at the time a Brexit, I said,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: this would be good if you know, on for Brexit,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: if the British government uses it to do the right thing,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: and the right thing was get rid of all the
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: regulations that were imposed by Brussels and establish free trade
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: relationships with all of the world, by the way, including Europe.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: If you can't become a free trade island and deregulates,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: you become an incredibly competitive place, an incredibly rich place.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: And at the time there was an absolute conservative majority.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: People in think tanks in the UK were telling me, oh, no,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: these guys are free traders, free marketers. Exactly what you
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: said is going to happen. Brexit is going to turn
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: out to be amazing. Now, I was like, I'm skeptical.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: I've seen conservatives, I know who these people are. Don't
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: strike me as free marketers at all. And indeed none
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: of that has happened. Britain has this as many regulations
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: now as it did under Brussels. Indeed, Brussels now is
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: deregulating and the UK has gone to labor and the
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: increasing regulations. Has the UK reduced to wefare state, No,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: increased it as the UK moved towards more privatization. No
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: than our nationalizing industries. Has the UK established itself as
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: a free trade island and cut free trade deals with
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: the rest of the world. No, a little bit here
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: and there, but insignificant in comparison to the benefits of
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: free trade with Europe, which they had when they went
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: in the U. So by my calculation, Brexit was from
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: a purely economic perspective, but also I think from a
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: cultural perspective, Bexit was an unmitigated disaster, unmitigated failure. UK
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: would be dramatically better off today, significantly better off today,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: significantly better off today if it had stayed with the EU.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: The UK economy is a disaster. It's being a disaster
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: for years now. The Conservative supermajority that they have was wasted,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: blown away, destroyed and allowed Labor to win the election.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Labor one because of the conservatives failures. The Conservatives are
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: to blame for Labour's win. The country is not a
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: leftist country. So the consequence of all this is there
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: are parties out there rising, and none of these parties.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: It's truly as amazing shocking. I mean, in all of Europe.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: This is true of all of Europe, every single one
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: of these countries. I really can't think of an exception.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: If somebody knows one, let me know. All of these countries.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: The new right that is rising to try to take
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: advantage of the bankruptcy of the status quo, the bankruptcy
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: of the mixed economy, the bankruptcy of the existing center left,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: center right kind of the politics as they've always been
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: since World War Two. They have come to the conclusion
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: that they can't really do anything about the economy. The
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: people are not actually interested in I mean, they're interested
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: in a solution to it, but they're not willing to
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: hear the truth. I don't know if the far right
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: parties in Europe explicitly hold this view. It's my view,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: which is to get growth going, you have to deregulate,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you have to shrink the welfare state, you have to
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: increase markets, you have to move towards more freedom in marketplaces.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: The far right has decided that is a message people
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: are not interested in. It doesn't win you votes. So
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: all three of the big you know, populist Right Reform
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: AfD and god, what's their national rally in France have
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: all basically chosen to take a different path, to take
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: a Donald Trump path. It worked for Trump, why not
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: for them? That is, to embrace the mixed economy, to
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: embrace the welfare state, embrace the regulatory state, give some lips,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: serverst a few things here and there, depending on which
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: crowd they're talking to. Maybe when they talk to business
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: leaders they say, oh, no, we want deregulation. But you know,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: one of the things the National Rally is running on
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: is a wealth tax, a wealth tax on rich Frenchmen.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: So they're running all three of these political parties are
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: running on a populous, mixed economy, keep the welfare state,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: like the National Rally wants to a wealth tax, but
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: it also wants to lower the age of retirement. Do
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: away with mccollin's reforms. They've already been done away with
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: to the pension system, which will rational reforms, good reforms.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: The German a FD has no free market. I mean
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: there's some element within the FD, there might be somewhat
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: free market, but the heart of the FD is not
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: in free markets, and the bulk of the party will
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: never pass free market reforms and of course form in Niger.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Faras again might have had some fe market ideas in
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: his youth, his youth being two three years ago, but
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: the political reality is now he's talking about nationalizing industries.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: He's talking about a leftist economic agenda, a complete embrace
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: of a mixed economy that is just as bad, if
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: not worse. Then what the what the existing center left
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: and center right proposed. So what they've landed on as
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: an electoral strategy is Trump's strategy. Don't blame stagnation and
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: cultural decline and cultural malaise and pessimism and just people
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: feeling this existential angst, lack of meaning whatever. Don't blame
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: it on a mixed economy, don't blame it in a
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: welfare in regulatory state. No no, no, no. Blame stagnation
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: and cultural decline on the other. And they have a
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: perfect other. It's the immigrants. It's the fault of the immigrants,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: and it's the EU. Although note the neither National Valley
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: no AfD is actually calling for their countries to leave
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: the EU, even though it's kind of in their DNA
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: to want that, because they know they know, they've seen Brexit,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: they know it would be disaster economically, so they slam
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: the U. They complain about the U. They think the
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: EU is horpable. They want national pride, they want national integrity,
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: they want national independence. They just don't want to leave
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: the EU because they don't want the economic hood that
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: that would impose on them. And of course all problems,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: all problems ultimately fall in immigrants. Now, granted, Europe has
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: a Muslim problem, not so much a Muslim problem, it
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: has an Islamist problem. But instead of identifying those Muslims
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: that are the problems, those Muslims that would use force
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and and and they're clearly agitating against Western civilization, instead
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: of identifying the Muslim brotherhood and their affiliates as an
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: enemy and therefore dealing with them, that would take a
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: lot of intellectual work. That would you know, demand that
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: they are, the people who support them, be able to
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: differentiate between regular Muslims and Islamists. And that's too much heart,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: that's too hot. They just lump all Muslims and really
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: all immigrants into one big pot. And all of these
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: pelical parties are basically running on an agenda of deportation,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: massive deportation from their countries and you know, standing up
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: to Muslims and kicking them out, you know, you know,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: particularly rounding up Muslims are kicking them out. In France.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: It's trickier because the Muslim population is more entrenched into
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: French society. It would be very difficult to do that,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: although they are you know, maybe you could do that
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: with the more recent immigrants. But again, Muslims have been
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: settling in France at least since the Algerian Civil War,
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: that goes back to the nineteen fifties. But of course
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: these were all French colonies, so many people actually immigrated
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: to France even before that, even before these colonies became independent. So,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: you know, all the countries, France has the most entrenched
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: Arab and Muslim population. Of course, the more entrenched they are,
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: the more they become French, the more they've actually assimilated,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: and the less of a threat, the less of a
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: problem they are. The problem in France is the more
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: recent immigration that have not assimilated because the French have
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: not allowed them to. And you know, we've talked about
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: the problems in England with you know, things like the
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: grooming gangs and things like, you know, not applying the
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: rule of law and having that double standards and all
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: of that. So and in Germany, I think you have
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: you have a similar problems. So the reality is that
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: these right wing political parties are primarily running an anti immigrant,
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: anti Islam platform and pro patriotism. They've all kind of again,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: they're all pretty plain vanilla when it comes to economics.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: They vary a little bit in terms of their attitude
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: towards Russia. Reform claims to be pro Ukraine, anti Russia,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: but there are people within Reform that are clearly pro Russia.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: The National Rally used to get a lot of money
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: from Russia from Putin was a supportive of the National Rally,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: but they now claim they're pro Ukraine, but I don't
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: know if anybody really believes them. AfD is probably the
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: closest political party to Russia, and they would want to
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: stop supporting Ukraine, although even there, you know a lot
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: of that populace is supportive of Ukraine and anti Russia,
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: so they might shift. So, you know, these three political
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: parties setting themselves up to be successful. It's hard to
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: tell exactly when. There will be national elections in the
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: UK and in Germany in twenty twenty nine, so of
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: course a lot can change between now and then. That's
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: three and a half years from now, but there will
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: be national elections in France well before that. It is
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: very likely that Marilla Penn's political party National Rally wins
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: those elections and wins the presidency. Marilla Penn probably won't
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: run she's been banned from running. But Joe dan Badea,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: who is her number two, who's young, charismatic, good looking,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: I guess thirty years old. He will run in her
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: place if she does not run, and he, according to
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: all the polls, is likely to beat everybody. We are
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: heading towards an era of populist right wing leadership in
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: the major European countries, and you know, depending on depending
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: on how they govern, it's hard to tell how that
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: is actually going to play out. The reality is that
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: they have no answers to the actual existential problems the
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: UBI faces. They have no answers to the lack of entrepreneurship.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: They have no answers to the lack of innovation. They
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: have no answers the lack of Unicorn startups. They have
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: no answers to the de industrialization, the coming of AI,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: the robots. What is Germany going to do? They have
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: no answers to how to make their economies more flexible,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: more dynamic. Nobody in Europe today is proposing dramatic loosening
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: of the labor laws that make European economy so so
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: slow to respond to changing technologies and changing realities. Europe
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: is stuck and none of these none of these populist
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: political parties on the right have an answer. Even when
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: it's come to immigration, what are they actually going to do?
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: Reality is that illegal immigration into Europe has already gone
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: down by fifty percent, with the exception of the UK,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: in mainland Europe EU country, illegal immigration has been cut
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: significantly already. They'll deport thousands of illegal immrogments. How many,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: There's only so much they can do in France, as
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: I told you, because so many of these people are
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: entrenched and many of them have illegal and it would
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: be very difficult given kind of the population's attitude, to
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: really do mass deportation. Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: We're not going to get to the millions. Germany might
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: deport people, but can you really see Germany supporting the
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: up of massive numbers of people, putting them into camps
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: as they figure out how to deport them, There's going
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: to be a lot of backlash and resistance of that,
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: at least as long as this Muslim population in Europe
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: is not you know, fanatically violent. In UK, yeah, they'll
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: deport some. I mean Nondia Fras has some plans, but
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: nobody's really committed. None of these plans are really real.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, the fact is, what has Maloney done that
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: is right, that is populist right. She's actually been pretty good.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: She's basically governed from the center right. She hasn't withdrawn
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Italy from the European Union, she hasn't gone off the
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: europe Neither one of these other parties will do that.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: They're all going to fail because the fundamental problem is
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: not immigration. The fundamental problem is lack of freedom. None
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: of these parties or advocates for liberty, for freedom, or
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: for free speech for that matter. So you just get
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: a reshuffling of people. The rhetoric will become more abusive,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: some immigrants will be deported, maybe a lot of immigrants
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: will be deported, and yet nothing in Europe will change. Yes,
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Europeans will feel more comfortable because they'll walk around the
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: streets and they'll be more white people relatively speaking, But
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: the reality is all their populations are shrinking. Europeans are
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: dying off, not because of immigrants, but because Europeans are
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: not having babies and because their economies are not growing.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: People are not making a lot of money. They're falling
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: further and further buying in terms of wealth, absolute wealth,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: the capital wealth falling further and further behind the United States.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: So they're poor, not having babies, not growing, no dynamism,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: no excitement, no entrepreneurship, no innovation AI. I mean, we
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: talk about AI as a competition between the United States
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: and China, companies in the United States and companies in China.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: Nobody's talking about Europe as anything in AI. Not data centers,
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: not programming, not startups, nothing. I mean, it's just not
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: part of this AI revolution that's going on. Europe is
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: dying not because of immigrants. Europe is dying because of Europeans.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Europe is dying because of the welfare state and the
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: regulatory state. And it's not dying because of the EU, because,
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: if anything, individual country policies are worse than the EU.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: It's hard to believe. You can see that in the UK.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: UK left the EU and how much deregulation did it do?
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Almost nothing? How much of a reduction in the office
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: they did, they do almost nothing. How much of pro entrepreneurial,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: pro innovation, pro growth policies did they put in place. Nothing?
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: So why would you believe that France left the EU,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: or any country left AU, they would do any better
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: than the British. At least the EU gives you a
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: free trade zone and trade. I know this is not
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: popular these days, this is politically incorrect these days, but
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: trade isn't unmitigated good. Zero tariffs are unmitigated good. So
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: we're in bigger trouble. No less, Europe is in bigger trouble.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: Now less, these right wing poppuss parties will not have
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: a solution, and Europe will still be in the same
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: place it is today. Maybe things will be a little
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: bit worse because maybe they'll engage in some nationalist policies
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: or some pan nationalist policies. Maybe they'll be pro Russia
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: and then for Russia's influence in Europe will grow, But
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: they'll make things worse. They're not going to make things better.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: And then what who knows? Maybe then we get what
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: you'll call a classical liberal political force to rise. They
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: can actually offer solutions, actually propose economic growth. Maybe or
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Europe dies a slow and pretty painful death. And by
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: the way, what's happening to Europe. They're just a few
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: years ahead of us in the United States. We are
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: stagnating badly, but we're hitting in that direction. A wealf
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: is state, a regulatory state are growing and not shrinking.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: Some regulations are shrinking. Welfare is not shrinking at all.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Now now we were you know, just like Europe, We've
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: now increased dramatically subsidies to farmers. Your subsidized is farming
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: to an unbelievable extent. So yeah, europe is will shrink.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Everything is better materially, we live in a best of
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: times and yet and yet ideologically, philosophically, culturally, and economically,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: we're planning the seeds for allowing destruction. And that's a fact.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: You can hold two thoughts at one time. I know
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: it's hard. I know it's hard. You can hold that
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: right now, life from a material perspective and for the
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: individual has never been better. You have more opportunities, your money.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: You know, you can buy more things. You have more time,
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: more wealth, more health, to do more things. And at
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: the same time you can hold the thought that, yeah,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: but because of the situation in philosophy, because of the
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: political deterioration, there is a lag. But ultimately that will
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: manifest itself in making things worse. That's why we fight
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: that's why we don't just say everything's great, Okay, let's
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: go home. Cool, all right, so we will keep following
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: what is going on in in Europe? All right, it's
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: shift topics, bak, shift to topics. We're gonna talk about it.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Andrew Tait. I haven't talked about Tait in a while.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Andrew Tait Is is uh. You know, a horrific, monstrous
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: human being, somebody who some bizarre reason the American right
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: and the right all over Europe loves and supports despite
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: of the fact that he made his money. He made
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: the bulk of his money, at least off of porn sites,
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: which I thought the right hated. I thought they were
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: they didn't like porn, but he made his money off
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: of porn sites. He has been accused in Britain, and
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: in and in uh Romania and potentially in the United
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: States of rape and uh and using force to exploit people,
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: forcing women to participate in pornography, all kinds of accusations.
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: He is if you listen to him, put aside any
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: vibells he might have committed or not committed. He is
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: a gross, disgusting, malevolent, a human being who hates women
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: and is dedicated to educating and to teaching young men
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: how to exploit, how to take advantage of women. He
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: is also a convert to Islam, which is another one
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: where you think the right would not like him, but
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: yet they do in spite of the fact that he
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: is converted to Islam. I think the conversion to Islam
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: has practical uses. I mean, Islam is a horrifically misogynistic religion.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: It is a religion that treats women really, really badly.
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: It also allows you to have many wives and have
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: sex outside of marriage, and therefore it's perfect for him.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: It's just a perfect religion for him. Women are second
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: class citizens. You know, if Christianity were still the Christianity
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: of a few hundred years ago, he wouldn't have had
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: to convert. But today, you know, women have equal rights
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: in the West. He needed a religious you know, facade,
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: excuse to justify his just horrific sexual behavior. Horrific sexual
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: behavior anyway. A few years ago, he and his brother
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: were arrested in Romania. They were arrested in Romania and
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: accused of you know, rape, of having sex with a
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: fifteen year old, a beating, you know, being violent with women,
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: cursing women into pornography. These are the things, you know.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: This is a It always strikes me as funny that
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: the American rights seem so obsessed with pedophilia, and yet
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: they love Andrew Tait. You know, somebody who's being accused
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: of pedophilia. He was arrested, he was put in jail.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: He's been in and out of jail, kind of house
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: arrested in jail for a while, and then suddenly, in
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: you know, February of twenty twenty five, suddenly he is
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: on a plane, private plane, private jet, being wished off
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: to Florida. Now at the time I told you that
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: he is off to Florida because the Trump administration put
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: pressure on the Romanian government to release him. Because that
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: people I don't know, Donald Trump and the people in
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: the Donald Trump universe who are huge Andrew Tate fans,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: big supporters of and rout in spite of the fact
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: that he is just this monster. And somebody says, illegals
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: have rights, question mark, not really. Parliament is sovereign, No,
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: the individual is sovereign. Parliament is there to protect the
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: rights of the individual, not to define them, not to
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: tell him what rights he has or hasn't not to
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: take them away, but to protect them. That's the role
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: of government only role of government. Your rights are not
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: defined by government. That's a left disposition. Your rights are
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: defined by your nature as a rational being. Illegals have
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: just as many individual rights. They might not have civil rights,
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: but they have every single individual right that you have.
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: There is no difference. You don't give up your rights
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: because you crossed the border. Anyway. Back to Tates. At
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: the time, I told you it was Trump, and now
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: there's been a major expose in the New York Times
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: that has basically gone through all the documents, talked to people, interviews,
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: you know, got texts and emails and the whole thing,
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: and has now established then indeed it was absolutely the
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Trump administration. The propressure on the Romanians. The Romanian government
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: basically told Romanian prosecutors to let the Tate brothers go.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: Romanian prosecutors flipped out. They were super angry. They had
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: worked in this case for years. They had a they
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: believed airtight case against them, and they were told forget it,
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: just let them go. And it came down from basically
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: the Prime Minister who believed that by doing this they
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: would get an inside in you know, they would get
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: favorite treatment by the Trump administration. Indeed, there were two
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: minutes two meetings held by a senior Trump advisor, Richard Grennell,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: with the Romanian government officials, and at the end, after
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: the second meeting, Wood came down from the top to
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: release the Tates. In the meantime, there's USO plenty of
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: evidence that I mean, this public information, and then there's
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: additional information or private information that Trump's kids big fans
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: of Andrew Tate, Trump Junior is a big fan, is
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: being interviewed. His interview Tate also Baron. Supposedly Baron was
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: getting dating advice from the Tates, so Baron Trump was
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: viewed advocate for them. It was Baron that Trump Junior
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: claimed all the accusations were just you know, made up accusations,
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: and did everything they could to get the the Trump
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: administration to get them released. Now, some conservatives objected. Ron
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: de scientists was very upset that they landed up in
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Florida and it was very against the release of the Tates.
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Megan Kelly was horrified by it. Many some within the
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: conservative universe compared Tate to Jeffrey Epstein, which is an
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: apt comparison. But this is the thing. I mean, Trump
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: doesn't care and Mega doesn't care. Mega doesn't care about
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: the people who are raped, the sexual abuse. They don't
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: really care about child trafficking. It's that kind of internal
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: virtue signaling. What they care about is, Oh, the abuses
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: off on the left. Well, when they abuse us from
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: the right, like Tait or maybe even Trump, when they
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: accuse us. When they abuse us on the right, nobody cares.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: Nobody in Maga kids, they gloss over it. They say
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: that acquisitions are made up. There's no basis for it. Nothing.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: Now you know, now that the Tates are back, they're
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: in the US and I'm going back to Romania. Yeah,
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: they've been freed the US and British citizens. I don't
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: think they're going to Britain because Britain would probably arrest
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: them if they showed up there. They're staying in the US.
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: They are taking advantage of their fact that they are free.
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: They're just sitting around the country. They are partying with
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: Kanye West, not surprising at all. They are chatting with fans,
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: they are doing interviews, they are building, continuing to build
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: their brand. Oh, the one place they would go is Dubai, Dubai,
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: you know, yeah where in Dubai. Of course they're you know,
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: nobody's going to touch them as long as they don't
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: hurt the local women. Nobody's going to touch them as
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: long as they have money. Now, the Ranian case is
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: still moving forward, and you know, they will face charges
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: of human traffick and rape and then I don't know
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: if there's going to be extradition or temps at extradition
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: or anything like that. In the United States, Uh, you know, uh,
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: Anti trafficking and Department of Homeland Security have been investigating
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: the takes for years, but it's unlikely they get charged
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: under the Trump administration. Again, they're in with MAGA, they're
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: in with the Trump's kids, They're in with the administration,
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: which tells you something about the administration. But in four years,
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: who knows, who knows? I mean, this is just you know,
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: of course, Oh, I forgot to tell you. One of
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: their biggest fans, One of their biggest fans is h
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: is is Tucker Carlson Tucker cross and flew to Romania
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: and did an interview with Andrew Tate another softball interview.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: Basically most of the interview was dedicated to hating on
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: the left, the left wings war and masculinity. And remember,
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: mister Tate is a porn operator. Don't know why I
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: called him mister Tate is a porn operator and as
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: an exploit of women. But Tucker Cousin just poo pooed
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: the accusations in Romania, made no big deal out of them.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: You know, I didn't really care about it. He's just
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: been Tate is just being mistreated. Yeah, you know. Afterwards
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: stuck her challenged about the actual nature of what they're
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: being accused of it, Tucker says, it doesn't change my
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: view of that the Tates, whatever they pushed on behavior,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: had a message worth hearing. What is the message? Men
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: are not men anymore because they don't rape women, because
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: they don't subjugate women, because they don't treat women like shit. Anyway,
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: There's no question that they interview that he did with
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: Taker Corusen basically you know, improved his image and expanded
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: his audience dramatically. Indeed, Charlie Cook was one of the
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: ones watched that interview and commented on understanding why Tate
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: was popular now. At least Charlie exprest discussed with with
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: Tate's pornographic business. But again, this whole idea of masculinity
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: being under siege. I mean, God, how are you going
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: to listen to somebody talk about masculinity who beats up women,
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: who rapes them, who hires them and potentially courses them
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: into working in his porn business. Are people in the
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: porn business the kind of people you want to get
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: advice on masculinity from. I mean, this is part of
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: the whole Nick Foentis and route, the whole craziness on
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: the right. Right now, Charlie Cook says he's sitting on
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: something that you're not allowed to say where there's a
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: lot of truth to it, is there? And do you
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: really want to promote a messenger with this kind of
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: character and who at the end of the day, this
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: is what he stands for. Yeah, I mean, look, this
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: is the new American right. To the extent that the
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: new American right is Tate Infuentes and Tucker Calson. It's
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: a despicable, disgusting right that nobody should support. Has no
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: place in civilized discussion debate. And yeah, I mean, even
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: if there's no alternative, you got to just walk away.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: These people are disgusting. All right. Uh let's see all right. Uh,
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: let's move on to another disgusting human being. Uh, techer Calson.
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: It's a techer Calson is on a campaign right now
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: to just do everything he can to make Israel look horrible.
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: He's been on this campaign for long time, but it's
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: becoming more and more explicit, more and more explicit. And
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: it's just you know, he keeps saying, oh, you know,
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: people should stop obsessing about Israeli stuff, talking about Israel
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: all the time. But that's all he talks about. And
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: he lies. As I've told you, these people lie with
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: no shame straight up. Now it's not just a lie.
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a minute. But some of
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: it is a lie. Here's, for example, Tucker just lying basically.
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he's paid by Kato. Well we
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: know he is so neat. Some of his income comes
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: from the Katari government, and this is the kind of
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: propaganda the Katari goverment would like spread in the United States. Tucka,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: no matter how much he gets paid by the Katari government,
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: is now a Katari and Muslim Brotherhood agent. He is
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: the spokesman in America for the worst elements of Islamism
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: when it comes to Israel. Hears what he has said
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: in a recent video. The idea that they've killed tens
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: of thousands, tens of thousands of women and children, non
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: combatants accidentally, is a lie. No, they murdered them. They
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: murdered them. It's just a fact. You can call it
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: whatever you want. Genocide, everyone's, everyone's all right. It's genocide. Okay,
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what you call it. That's murder. They're
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: killing people on purpose. Now, he says this, and he
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: says it's a fact. It's a fact. But he has
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: no evidence. He certainly has no proof. Indeed, there's plenty
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: of evidence to the exact contrary, exact contrary. He's lying
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: through his teeth or purposefully evading the existing evidence. First
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: of all, it's not tens of thousands of the seventy
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: thousand that have died a minority of children and non combatants,
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: a small minority. Seventy thousand includes everybody who died from
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: natural causes, includes all Khamas fighters, It includes men and teenagers.
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: It includes everybody who's died in the Gaza Strip, including
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: people who were killed by Hamas. The number of actual
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: women and children is the lowest as a percentage of
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: all the deaths is the lowest in urban warfare in
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: the history of mankind. So Tucker's just making this up
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: now on top of it, If you look at these
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: nu rules of engagement, if you look at Israel's dogged
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: attempts to not kill civilians, not kill non combatants. If
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: you look at the number of times Israel lets the
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: residents of a building know before they knock it down
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: in spite of the fact that some of the people
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: in the building a Kamas fighters, in order not to
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: kill civilians. To hold the kind of idea, the views
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: that Tucka has is to ignore reality. It's to ignore factors,
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: to ignore everything about this war. It's just to make
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: stuff up in order to promote propaganda, which is propaganda
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: fed to him by the Muslim Brotherhood, by the worst
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: Islamists out there. And why would he do it because
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: he's being paid. Because Tucka has reached the point where
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: he is just hateful of Western civilization. He's hateful of
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: everything that the West represents. He's hateful of modernity, he's
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: hateful of technology. I mean, he told us feudalism was
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: think what we have today feudalism. He's joined the medievalists,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: and if you're gonna join the medievalist, Katta is not
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: a bad place to go. The very medievalist in Kotcha.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: He is a reactionary medievalist. And you know in that sense,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: culturally these Muslim countries are perfect. And you can see
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: that in another show he did look at this. So
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: he did a video where he compares Israel to Kacha
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: to Qatar, right, trying to convince Americans that Qatar should
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: be the US's friend, not Israel. Qatar is the real ally,
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: not Israel. Here's what Tuckas Carlton said, Kata doesn't have
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: drag queens story hours Israel does. Yeah, it's true. Israel
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: has a pretty pretty liberal leave it alone in other words,
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: perspective on LGBTQ plus stuff. It doesn't force people to
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: participa in drag queen story els. But drag queens, which
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: have long traditions in the military, in entertainment, Yeah, they
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: probably do have a drag queen's story la. The Katolis don't. Yeah,
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: you would be shot if you were a drag queen
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: in Katou. That's a sign conta is better than Israel. Obviously,
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: Kontas doesn't have abortion on demand. Israel does. There you go,
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: abortions as a primary right, a primary evil, so to
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: many states in the United States. I guess that's why
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: techer KOs is moving to Katau because many states, including
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: the state where he grew up, has abortion on demand
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: and Katas better. Katari is a socially conservative like Trump supporters.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah right, Qatar has natural gas and benefits the United States.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: Why does it benefit the United States? In the United
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: States have natural gas? United States doesn't need the importing
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: in the natural gas. Israel doesn't. Actually, Israel has enough
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: natural gas to supply all its needs and to export
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: natural gas to Europe for the next hundred years. So
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: it turns out Israel does have natural gas. So unsurprisingly,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: techer Cousin is just frigging ignorant. He says, go visit
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: Katsa and see for yourself. Now, he has a little
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: story that I read online to give you a sense
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: of Tucker Cousin's socially conservative Kato in twenty sixteen. In
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, a Katari student studying in Ohio converted to Christianity.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: Then he went back to kuts out to visit his
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: mother in Doha. She found a Bible in his bag.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: She confronted him, learned that he had left Islam, which
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: is like the biggest sin you can commit, an islam apostasy,
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: and immediately called her brothers. They tortured this young man,
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: tied him up and imprisoned him in his own room.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: Weeks later, he managed to get a message out to
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: a friend in Ohio. That friend reached out to me,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: the guy who was writing this post, asking for help.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: I called a Lebanese Christian friend who worked in Doha,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: hoping he might know someone who could intervene. The moment
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: I started to explain the situation, he hung up the phone.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: Months later, when I saw him again, I asked why.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: His answer was simple. If the Katari authorities ever heard
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: a whisper of this conversation, he would have been fired
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: and deported immediately. This is the land of the free,
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: socially conservative, wonderful place the Tucka wants you to support.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: This is not a natural ally. This is a country
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: dedicated to Islam, a country that ultimately hates Christianity, and
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: if you convert to Christianity you're probably dead. This is
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: a country that supports terrorism, Islamic terrorism against Christians, Europeans, Americans.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: Israel as a free country is a country where you
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: can disagree with the government and people do all the time.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: Is a country where Christians, Muslims, Jews live in peace
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: in side Israel and where their rights are protected for
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: the most part. For the most part, I say, because
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: no government anyway protects rights consistently, and for the most part,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: because there's some discrimination against Arabs. I'm not going to
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: say there's none, but it's tiny in comparison to discrimination
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: you would get in kulture Israel. You can be an atheist.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: Try being an atheist in culture in Israel. You can
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: be a Christian. You can be a Christian in culture
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: as long as you didn't convert to Christianity for Islam.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: And you can be a Christian in culture up to
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: a point. You can never be a citizen, and they'll
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: always watch you, they'll always keep an eye on you.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is really disgusting. Again, it's just terrific.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, Katura is a bad, bad, bad place and
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: anti Western, anti American, anti civilizational place. It is the
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: negation of civilization. Israel is hated. It is hated by
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: people like Teka because it is the opposite. It is
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: the epitome of civilization. It is a Bastian a Western
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: civilization in the Middle East. It advances civilization now, not consistently,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: not perfectly, all the caveats apply. Israel has lots and
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: lots and lots and lots of really bad problems, and
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: yet it is on the side of civilization. Qatar is
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: on the side of the uncivilized. It's the side of
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: the barbarians at the gates. Who do you think is
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: funding the mosques in Europe with the Muslim brotherhoods preach.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: Who do you think is funding the push for Sharia
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: law in Europe? It's Katari money, much of it, not
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: all of it, much of it, So you're attacker Carlson.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: All right, we talked about this yesterday. We talked about
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: the voting in Indiana not to a Jimmy manned state
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: and to basically keep things the way they are. You know,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: Trump World has gone ballistic, They really have. They really
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: have gone crazy. You know, gone our state rights. The
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: federal government is going to impose its will on them.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: Trump's supporters are really freaking out, even though a majority
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: of Republicans, not just majority of Sendates, is a majority
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: of Republicans voted against the redistricting. You know. Jd Vance
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: is out claiming that the Senate lead leader in Indiana
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: is a layah. Laura Ingram is out blaming all of
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: them for just being Mike Pence fans and they don't
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: understand what's good for the country. They just rather do
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: their own little thing. Stephen Bannon is out, you know,
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: coming up with all kinds of conspiracy theories about this
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: and what motivated these Indiana senators. Some Indiana senators are saying,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: you know, the reason we voted against redistricting is because
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: of the mega tactics, because they try to twist our arms,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: because we were threatened, because they attacked our families. One
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: of them said, this is an Indiana state senator who
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: voted for Trump three times. He said, you wouldn't change
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: minds by being mean, and the efforts were mean spirited
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: from the get go. If you were wanting to change minds,
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: you would probably try to explain why we should be
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: doing this in a positive way. That never happened. Yeah,
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: but you voted for mean president, You voted for guy
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: to run this country who is inherently, fundamentally in every
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: fiber of his body mean nasty. So why are you surprise?
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: Why are you surprised? You know, other Republicans and other
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: states are flipping out, Ken Paxton, Attorney General in Texas.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: The state senators who opposed to redistricting betrayed our nation,
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: our voters, and our parties. They must all be kicked
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: out of office. Turning point, Ussay has already said that
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: they will be funding and supporting alternative candidates in primaries
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: when the senators up for re election. So Republican Party
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: is just completely flipped out on this. Yep. All right,
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: So just thought I give you an up quick update
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: on that. Let's see how we do insime. All right,
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: we don't have a lot of questions doing Okay, there
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: is we should at least make the first hour's first
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: hour goal, so another you know, forty bucks would be great,
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: to twenty dollars questions would be perfect. All right, I'll
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: just talk a little bit about this. We'll we keep
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: coming back to this issue because when it actually gets
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: augued in front of the Supreme Court and when there's
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: a decision coming for the Supreme Court. But you know,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: the Supreme Court has agreed to take on the birthright
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: citizenship question. You know, the President is basically sign an
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: executive order eliminating birthright citizenship, and the argument is that
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: is executive voter to violates the fourteenth Amendment. And I
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: think it does, and I think a lot of people do.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: But it's not clear Supreme Court is going to advocate
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: for that. They could have just let the lower court's
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: position hold, which is that it violated the fourteenth Amendment.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: They could have just let it go. But no, they
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: took the case, which means that at least some judges
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: on the Swim Court who might believe that there's some
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: bases for restricting birthright citizenship. Now they have at least
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: three options. They probably have more, but I thought i'd
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: quickly describe three options that they could rule him. They
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: could rule and vote that this is a fourteenth Amendment
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: issue and Trump has violated it. I'm not sure what
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: the majority, how big the majority will be in such
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: a case. It could be five to four, six to three.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: It's not going to be nine zero. I think there's
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: some judges Thomas, for example, who I think are eager
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: to argue that at least in the case of illegal immigrants,
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: the fourteen Amendment doesn't cover them. So that's one option.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: They could just vote and it would be a minority
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: vote too, and then this will become a big cultural
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: battle and it'll be a big issues for Conservatives as
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: they nominate judges of the Supreme Court in the future.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: It'll become like a Roar versus Way type thing, and
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: they will try to stack the quote with people who
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: believe that the fourteenth Amendment doesn't cover it. A second
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: option is that they rule that Trump's executive vote is fine.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: I think that is very unlikely. I think that's very unlikely,
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: partially because the interpretation of the fourteen Amendment is covering
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: birth right transition for everybody is well established. A lot
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: of laws have already been written under that assumption, and
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: I don't think that they can accept the idea that
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: a president is just in a signature with a pen,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: you know, interpret the Constitution one way or the other,
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: or rewrite accepted law one way or the other. There
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: is a good chance that there Republicans on the Court
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: will try to do something different. They'll try to say
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: that indeed, birthright citizenship does not apply to illegals. However,
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: that kind of interpretation birthright citizenship might not apply to illegals.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: They might say, might not. But the decision on that
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: is not the president's, but the decision on that is Congresses.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: And they would thought back to Congress to pass a
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: law restricting birthright citizenship, so they would make it a
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: legislative issue, and then it dies at least until one
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: political party has enough votes to be able to establish
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: it one way or the other. And then you know,
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: the existing laws, existing president just goes to I think
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: those are the three the three possibilities. There might be more.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: Will get a court expert on here to talk about
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: it sometime in the next few months. But you know,
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: I really do think birthrights citizenship is threatened now by
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: an out and out rejection of it by the Court,
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: but by a willingness of the Court to accept a
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: legislation that treats different births differently. So Congress writing the
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: rules for this another reason why we don't want to
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: have sixty senators Republican senators. Now only would they institute
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: a nation and I'm bad on abortion, but they would
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: also then I think, destroy much of what is destroying
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: much of what is the birthright? Citizenship is accepted? All right,
• 1:15:32

• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure what that is? All right, let's see.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: Let us start with Andrews hundred dollars Thank you. Andrew
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: Andrews's thoughts on this explanation of nihilism by Kantianism automatized
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: fear and hatred of reality due to lack of knowledge.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: You want capacity to know reality by reason. Such results
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: from the undercutting of one's means of knowledge, consciousness because
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: it has identity. Yes, I think that ultimately, ultimately, a
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: major cause of nihilism is Kant. Kant is the philosopher
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: of nihilism. Once you cut your own mind from real
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: reality by necessity of cutting off your values from reality,
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: and you're cutting off the relationship with your your values
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 1: and your survival and your values and your happiness and
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: your values and are dictated by something called category competatives.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: Your happiness, if it's to be achieved, it's to be
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: achieved through the realization of these category imperatives that are
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: somehow in your mind and somehow you know what they are,
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: but they're actually not there. The reality is they are
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: no category killing peratives. Whatever moral principles you must have,
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: whatever values, moral values you pursue, you're going to have
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: to discover them in by integrating the facts of reality.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 1: You're gonna have to discover them by knowledge of reality.
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: But if you cannot know reality, you cannot discover values.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: You cannot discover what's good for you. You cannot discover
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: what is necessary for your happiness. You cannot discover what's
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: necessary for success at living, and therefore values become meaningless.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: The detached from reality, the detachment purpose. You keep looking
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: for the category it better has inside your mind, but
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: they're not there. The ones the society imposes on you,
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: the altruistic ones, the ones that can't supports are self destructive,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: they're not fun, they're not good for you, they don't
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: further your life. You reject that. But where do you
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 1: find values? Well, not in reality, because you can't no reality.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: Now answer that that as you say, the fact that
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: you detect from reality, and that philosophies, since content built
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: on that fact and have steered education away from knowledge
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 1: of reality, towards socialization, towards other people, and towards emotions,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: you now grow up without the tools to be able
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: to achieve any kind of values because the chief values
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: you need reason to pursue anything, to be successful, and really,
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: really crucially to have any sense of self esteem. Self
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: esteem requires reason, self esteem requires values and achievement of
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: those values. So you are stuck without the ability to
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: achieve values, reliance in your emotions, therefore driven towards the
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: tribe and tribalism. That will only make you afraid and anger,
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: angry and hateful of other people and of reality itself.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: And yeah, add to that that you've done a way
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: to find the values. Anyway, that's all a recipe for nihilism,
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: and it's exactly the outcome. So I agree. I agree
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: with you. You have to add to your analysis where
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: values come from and how does one discover values? And remember,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: nihilism is the rejection of all values, and a wanton
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 1: destruction of values and con separates makes it impossible if
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: you discover values. Molten Splendor. Where does the music intro
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: to YBS come from? I can't remember. I think it
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: comes from a marketing from that I hired years ago,
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 1: who basically hired somebody to write the music and put
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: it together for me. I'm pretty sure that's where it
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: comes from. It's not from any particular song or anyarticularly musician.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: It's just a marketing thing that somebody wrote for me,
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 1: and it was a marketing firm that I had. Mike,
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: I remember when we could travel to Canada and Mexico
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: without a passport. Yeah, not that long ago. When passports
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: were acquired. During the first Obama term, I predicted the
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: travel for US citizens would become more difficult overall. Absolutely,
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 1: and it's becoming more difficult. You now need this ETA
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: to go into Europe and to go to go to
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: Britain and to go and to go into Australia. Europe
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 1: is saying they're going to require Americans they're visas. And
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: then when you come back. As I described yesterday, the
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: border Patrol has a lot of power and they are
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: incentivized now to whorass you. Now, not if you're normal
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: white American, but if you you know, a little shaded
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: of gray, a little shade of brown, that might be
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: a sign that you emigrated to the country at some point.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 1: They have every motivation given to them by the administration
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 1: to view you with suspicion and to you know, Harashi
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: I Carnivore. Let's get you ready for your Nicos interview
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 1: later this month. So so ta coopa list so to

  Speaker 1: There's only one Nikos and in objectivism, and I don't
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: think that's gonna change, and he's just gonna have to
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: live with that. At least me Uran is not gonna
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 1: be not going to be saying his family name too
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 1: odd Michael left us believe, thank you, Iconnable left us
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: believe only labor creates wealth, then proceed to advocate wealth
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: be redistributed to those who don't labor. Uh, yeah, that's clever,
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: But it's not their fault that they don't laver labor
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: labor and there's enough wealth to keep them alive without laboring.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: White labor labor should only be not by those who
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: really want to labor. People who don't want to labor
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: should be able to live without laboring, particularly if we
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: have robots and we have rich people that we can
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: take their money from. So yep, James. If we don't
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: want to have the nineteen thirties nineteen forties again, we
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 1: shouldn't repeat the nineteen twenties. Yes, we shouldn't repeat the
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 1: nineteen twenties. We will see ideologically it appears we're repeating
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: the nineteen twenties. Andrew, my religious psychological roots has my feeling,
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: me feeling bad for Fuenttis, knowing he has serious problems
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 1: and wanting to help him. Stop it, Andrew, you're supposed
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 1: to be a rational egoist. Now that's Andrew yelling at himself,
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 1: not me. But let me just say stop it, Andrew,
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: what the hell we've talked about this enough. Just stop it.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: Altruism is evil. Caring for somebody like Fouenttis is evil.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 1: It's destructive. It makes your life worse. And if you
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: actually cared for him, if you actually went out of
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 1: his wa to help your way to help him, that
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: would be unbelievably destructive to your life. So don't do it.
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 1: Do not do it. Don't even think of doing it,
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: because you're an egoist, like Numbers, how would intellectuals be
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 1: able to idea Islamists. Not hard. You can idea is
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 1: Slamish by their ideas, by by what they preach, by
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 1: what they say. They're not shy about advocating for it.
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 1: It's pretty easy. Certain mosques associated with Islamism. There are
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 1: plenty of experts in the field who can tell you
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: exactly who which mosques Islamist and which are not. Those
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 1: who advocate for sharia law, those who advocate for jihad,
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 1: those who advocate for, you know, for taking over Europe.
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 1: Not all mosques are like that, not all Muslims are
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: like that. They're all kinds of shades of Islams, just
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: like all kinds of change of Christianity. It's just that
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: Islam never never escaped the Middle Ages. It never got
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 1: out of its Dark Ages. Islam is still in its
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: Dark Ages. It had an enlightenment, you know, in the
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 1: ninth to twelfth and in Spain's case, fourteenth century, and
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: since then it's been in the Dark Ages. But there
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: are all kinds of splinter groups within Islam. They are
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: Sufis just want to meditate. They're very influenced by the Buddhism.
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: They just want to meditate. They're not un interested in
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 1: converting you and then interested in going to war with you.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 1: And you know, there are others who absolutely they're dedicated
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: to bringing Sharia to world domination and they will kill
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: and destroy whomever they need to in order to achieve
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: their aim. And they're after you, and they want you,
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: and they tell you that they're not hiding it. So
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: it's not hard to differentiate. Kim. What to say to
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: co workers and others who say they don't celebrate Christmas
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: because it's a religious holiday, Tell them it's not a
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: religious holiday. It's a second in your view, it's not
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: a religious holiday. It's a secular holiday. And that's why
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: you celebrate it. And if you thought it was a
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: religious holiday, you wouldn't celebrate it. But Christmas trees, gifts, lights,
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: decorations have zero to do with religion. Jesus wasn't born
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: aunt a Christmas tree. This is not how Christians celebrated
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: It is both originally, this is mostly you know, this
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 1: is mostly pagan adaptation, and it's mostly a creation of
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: nineteenth century American capitalism and a marketing employee by Macy's
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: of all places, Lincoln. I hate that some toxic masculinity
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: since the Left has ruined the term, but Tate Fuentis
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 1: calls it masculinity is toxic, worse than LGBT stuff. Yeah,
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: although I wouldn't say that Fuentis is masculine. He strikes
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: me as anti masculine. I mean to me, other than
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: he hates women, but that that is not masculine. That
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: is not at all. And it's not like he lifts
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: weights like the Tate's due. It's not like he's got
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: women drooping all over him like with Tate. He said
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: nothing when it comes to female male Lincoln continues, I
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 1: don't like it when teenage guys nowadays act super effeminate,
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 1: but it's mostly harmless. They aren't gonna ever soult my
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 1: sister like Tate Wood. Yes, absolutely, Yeah, Molten splendid. Thanks
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: for having Gene Maroney on your show. She really helped
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 1: me with an issue I've struggled with uh with forever,
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: and gave me a great tip on how to work
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: on it. Excellent, excellent. I'm happy to have guests who
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 1: are helpful to your lives. That's what that's what they're
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 1: here for. By the way, on Monday, we're going to
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: have an economists, the free market economists a Canadian in
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: origin to talk about to talk about wealth creation in
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 1: the end of the nineteenth century, was did inequality go
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 1: up or down during that period? What does that even mean? Well,
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: els talk about trade and why when Trump came up
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: with the tariffs on Canada, did this economist tell Canada
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: that what they should do in response is lower the tariffs.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: So it should be a fun conversation. So all of you,
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: all of you guys who like economics, definitely listening to
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 1: that show. AAM Is popularism a natural check on unresponsive elites? No,
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 1: because popularism is just another set of elites. It's almost
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 1: always driven by false ideology, by bad ideas, and it
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 1: just replaced one set of elites with a more ignorant
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 1: seat of elites. So I don't think it's a check
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: on anything. It's never produced anything positive. En mil Where
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: can I find data for the claim that casualties of
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 1: noncombatants are the lowest? I already tried, but it's hard
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: to find objective info on the topic. God, there's a
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: couple of British guys and there's actually a whole report
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 1: that was published that analyzed all the numbers and compared
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 1: its compared it to other combats, other combat The problem
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: is you're asking me like out of nowhere, I would
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: have to actually go and look and search and try
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: to find it. Let me do that on a future show.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: I'll pull up the have to listen to the show.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 1: But uh, I mean, I'm just gonna scan my scan
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 1: quickly if I can figure out who it is. Yeah,
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: let's see. Yeah, uh yeah, So I'm gonna have to
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: find it. And uh, it's not it's not obvious to me.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: But there's a there's a think tank in in in
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: London that has done a lot of good stuff on this,
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: and I'm just I'm just scanning my uh Twitter feed
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: to see if I can find the guy because I
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: don't remember names, which it is hard for me when
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: I do research, because I remember that this guy wrote
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: something good on something, and then I can't find it.
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 1: The West Bike has taken a very different pathops, that's
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: not who I wanted. But anyway, I will get back
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 1: to you with the study in question. But I you know, yeah,
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 1: I'll get back to you. I don't think it's that
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: hard to figure out by the way. I mean, even
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 1: if you take the seventy thousand number, and you're divided
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: by the total population of Gaza, and if but to
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: seventy thousand, even the Gazans say that includes Ramas. So
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: take out I don't know, twenty five thirty thousand combatants,
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: and you've gotten now a number of about forty forty
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: five thousand. Divide back by two million population, take that ratio,
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 1: and then try to figure out how many how many
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: civilians Americans killed in Fallujah? I mean, I'm not even
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: talking about Second World War with the numbers are you know?
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 1: You can check on Dresden or you can check on anything,
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 1: but even in modern warfare, how much they killed in
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: Fallujah and muscle? And I think you can find that
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 1: out pretty easily. But somebody's done the work, so I will.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 1: I will find it for you and let you know. Lincoln,
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: how does federalism work in an objective of society. I
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 1: have a natural tendency to be in favor of a
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 1: strong state rights, but stuff like abortion, economics, and drug
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 1: policy should be federal for example. Yeah, I mean the
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 1: federal government's responsibility is the protection of individual rights on
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: issues where it's clear cut what that means. That is
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 1: a federal issue, and states cannot violate rights when it's
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 1: clear cut and unequivocal. The states are there for the
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 1: optional stuff. So for example, sentencing, should a murderer get
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 1: life in prison or two times life in prison or
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: be executed? I think that's the state's rights. The states
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 1: can decide that. I don't think the federal government has
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 1: to decide that for them. It's not there's no app
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 1: there's no rights. I mean, the right is. The important
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 1: thing is that they're that they're punished. Exactly the level
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 1: of punishment should be left to the states. Certain issues
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: surrounding property rights, how they exactly define those property rights,
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 1: nuisance laws, you know, what is the decibel at which
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 1: noise becomes a violation of some of these property rights.
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 1: A lot of optional things like that is where states
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 1: would intervene. But on the big questions abortion, economic policy, drugs,
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 1: for speech that should be protected, you know, slavery that
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 1: should be protected by the federal government. Robert, have you officiated?
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 1: Have you officiated a wedding? And if so, what tips
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: would you offer a first time. I'll be officiating a
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: wedding tomorrow for the first time. I mean, I've officiated
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 1: it's several weddings. I can't remember how many, four at least,
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 1: you know. I think the main thing is role with
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 1: what they with, what their writing groom want. I mean,
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 1: it's their party. What do they want, how do they
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 1: want it done? You know, accommodate them. Uh, you know,
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 1: be a dignified. It's a it's a it's an important ceremony.
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 1: It should be treated with dignity. But you know, in
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 1: terms of what you say and all that, I think
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 1: that should all be uh, that should all be determined
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day by the bride and groom.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: They should have full responsibility for what the ceremony is
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 1: going to be like. And although you know, at some
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: point you might want to at some point you might
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: want to standardize, uh, standardize them or give a number
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 1: of different options to people so they don't have to
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 1: write starting stuff from scratch. I have I think someone
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 1: in my computer all the stuff I've done in the past,
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 1: and you know, just just be up there, be friendly,
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 1: be dignified, and it should be a fun It should
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: be a fun event. I mean. The one thing I
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 1: hate about weddings is when they turn into duty bound.
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 1: We have to do this we have to do that.
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 1: You know, it should be fun. It should be. It
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: should be you know, the biting groom should be enjoying
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 1: themselves and not worried constantly about what is what. Take
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 1: the load off of them as much as you can
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: keep keep them on track. I mean, that's I think
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: that's all the advice I have. Just get up there
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 1: and do it. It's it's going to be fun and fine.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 1: S Rose. It says ten to fifty long time non
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 1: live listeners, So I don't really get how super chests
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: work in practice. I'm a new mom, emotions positive and negative,
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm trying to think instead of feel good. My
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: son is of Jewish descent by my husband. My husband
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 1: doesn't identify that way, his family does. We have both
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: thought to just not tell us son about his genetic heritage,
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 1: because why tell him Iran? But his uncommon name is
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 1: one recognizable of Hebrew origin. I'm scared this rise of
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 1: anti Semitism, and I wonder if a when he should
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: know for his safety, any advice on how to do
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 1: this analysis My heart has is in my throat whenever
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 1: I think about it. But I'm trying. You are trying,
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 1: and that's good and yeah, you're doing good fifty out
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: of fifty value for value. Thank you really really appreciate that.
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 1: I think you're right. I don't think you should make
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: a deal out of it. But look, it's going to
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 1: come out. The existence of God is going to come up.
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 1: The existence are relatives that celebrate different holidays than maybe
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 1: his friends celebate is going to come up. The fact
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 1: that his friends might be Christian or whatever might come up. See,
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 1: you're not going to be able to ignore one religion.
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: You're going to have to come up with a strategy
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 1: and how to deal with it. And the strategy I
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 1: think best to deal with it is just straight up,
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: you know, be rational with your kid. This is when
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 1: they're a little older. Different people believe in different things.
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 1: We happen to think your parents, you'll have to decide
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: when you're grown up, or we happen to think that
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: they believe don't make any sense, and therefore we don't
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: celebrate those holidays that don't go to church or don't
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 1: do these things, and we don't believe in God because
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 1: that doesn't make any sense to us. And by the way,
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 1: some of these people who call themselves Jewish, it's not
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 1: just a religion, but it's a people. We don't really
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 1: care about belonging to groups, tribes, peoples, but some people do,
• 1:44:10
  Speaker 1: and these members of the family do, and they make
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: a big deal out of it. And you know, your name,
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 1: your family name. At some point you can tell him
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 1: your family name is an associated with that in reality though,
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 1: and I don't know if this is will relieve some
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 1: of your stress or not. In reality is not Jewish
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 1: because according to Jews, whether you're Jewish or not, that
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 1: comes from the mother. Now anti Semites don't care you
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 1: w all Jews, whether it's through the mother, through the father,
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 1: whether you reject your Judaism or not. So you know,
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 1: you tell him that this is the family name, and
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 1: he you know, some people might assume he's Jewish, and
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 1: he can tell them he is or isn't, based on
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 1: what he actually thinks. But don't don't ever let them
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 1: get to you. Don't ever let him get to you.
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: And deal with the with the hate or the or
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 1: you know, people saying bad things when it happens, deal
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 1: with it as rationally as a straightforwardly is as necessary
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 1: and of course appropriate to the to the age of
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 1: the kid. I mean don't flood him with abstract concepts,
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: you know, do stuff at whatever appropriate for his conceptual level,
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 1: depending on what age is in. I mean that I
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 1: think is the best advice. So so think it through.
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 1: But it's not something to worry about now, your new
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 1: mom enjoy you know, the the unbelievable hard work and
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 1: the lack of sleep that you're going to endure for
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 1: the next few months years. This is not an issue
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 1: that's going to come up anytime soon. There's no point
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 1: in addressing any of this before they start going to
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 1: school and engage with other people and actually have questions,
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 1: and they will come to you with questions before you
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 1: come up with and then just be prepared for rational
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 1: honest don't play games, don't make stuff up, honest, rational
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 1: conversations with your kids. But again, you've got years before
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: this is an issue. Stop worrying about it. There's nothing
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 1: to worry about. And yeah, by the way, congratulations and
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 1: I think a baby. Enjoy it, Celebrate it, you know,
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 1: just have fun with it and deal with the issue
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 1: when it comes up in four or five, ten, fifteen years. Right,
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 1: it'll probably come up in various ways at different ages,
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: all right, Molten spender. How do you balance private property
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: rights in an urban environment without governing intervention. I'm not
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 1: sure you do. You never balance private property rights. People
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 1: have private property rights. I have a right to my property. Now,
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 1: I can't do anything that violates your property right. Now,
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 1: how we define that government has. Goverment is responsible for
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 1: helping us understand what that means. So I can't blast
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 1: music from my on my property if it is disruptive
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 1: in your property. I can't pollute. I can't do stuff
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 1: on my property that pollutes your property. I can't chuck
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 1: my garbage in your backyard. You know. I can't run
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 1: my fence into your property. That's what goverment does. But
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 1: other than that, you don't have a right to a view.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 1: You don't have a right to nice neighbors. You don't
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 1: have a right to not have a multifamily building next
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 1: to you or office building next to you. There's no zoning,
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 1: there's no none of that. People have property rights and
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 1: they can do what they wouldn't want with their property.
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 1: The way private property disputes get resolved as through the
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 1: court system, and the way we establish neighborhoods with some
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 1: cohesion and some is by having agreements between the different
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: owners of property on what cana cannot be done. But
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: that is done voluntarily through contract, not through government regulations.
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 1: Andrew good Lord having the intellectuals messed up man's concept
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 1: of masculinity. Do you think their rejection of differentiation between
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 1: man and women has led to the modern misogyny on
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 1: the right? Partially it was always there on the right,
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 1: but I think look, the rise of women in the workplace,
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 1: the decline of manual labor, the need for muscle for
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 1: man's survival, has placed men in a difficult situation where
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: they have to figure out what masculinity is. It used
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 1: to be simple, take out the sword and defend your
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: family against the invaders. Easy, But what is it now
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 1: when you don't Nobody needs your sword, They need your brain.
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 1: And you're not the only provider for the family. The
• 1:49:17
  Speaker 1: woman can provide just as well as you can, maybe
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: sometimes even better. So there really is an issue of
• 1:49:26
  Speaker 1: modernity of how do we how do we think about masculinity,
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 1: how do we conceptualize masculinity? And this and the left
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 1: just wipes it out. There's no difference between men and women,
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 1: so that wipes it out. And the right is reactionary.
• 1:49:42
  Speaker 1: The right is about the past, so it looks to
• 1:49:45
  Speaker 1: the past for answers. But the search for an answer,
• 1:49:49
  Speaker 1: the search for an explanation, is legitimate. The wondering, the
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 1: the the need for something, for a conception of masculinity
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 1: is necessary. So it's not out of nowhere. Okay, Jacob
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 1: did Well find new to European confidence to act in
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 1: the world and as certain values or was that something else?
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 1: Over emphasized colonial guilt. Well, it's a combination of a
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 1: lot of things. It's welfare, it's colonial guilt, but its
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 1: guilt over the world. Was World War One, World War Two,
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 1: the number of people who died, the horror that it created.
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of guilt built into European societies for
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 1: those wars, and a lot of the structure. The reason
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 1: for the EU has a lot to do with trying
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 1: to create mechanisms to avoid that ever happening again. Lincoln,
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 1: how does one overcome a mindset that opposes abortion? My
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 1: girlfriend and I have agreed to have abortion as an
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 1: option in case of unwanted pregnancy. However, I grew up
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 1: Catholic and had radical anti abortion viewpoint drilled into me
• 1:51:09
  Speaker 1: from a very young age. I'm worried that could affect
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 1: me if if my go friend gets an abortion. Well,
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, you have to prepare yourself for it. That is,
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 1: you have to think it through and you have to
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: recognize that reason rules all. That is, you might have
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 1: some negative emotions, you're going to you're going to have
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 1: to accept that and you're gonna have to you know,
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 1: fight through it in a sense of yes, I have
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 1: these negative emotions, but I don't I'm going to act
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 1: not on them. I'm going to act on my reason,
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 1: you know. And the more you prep for it, the
• 1:51:44
  Speaker 1: more you think about it in advance, the more you
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 1: work in convincing yourself that this is right, the less
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 1: of a problem it will be when, when, and if
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 1: it actually happens. Michael, A few people on Twitter told
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 1: me to go to a gas chamber. Is this First
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 1: Amendment protected speech? Yes, it's metaphorical. They didn't literally say
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 1: we're coming to get you and throw you into gas chamber.
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 1: Even that I think is probably protected. They literally have
• 1:52:13
  Speaker 1: to say we're coming to kill you. Beware. Even there,
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 1: unless there's some reason to believe that they would actually
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 1: do it, it's probably going to be protected. So there
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 1: has to be not just a threat, but a viable threat.
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 1: The other party has to be in a position to
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: actually do the threat, follow up on the threat. Thank you,
• 1:52:39
  Speaker 1: Michael Robert. Thanks. Yes, the wedding is going to be
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 1: great fun, second winning for both and they want it
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 1: substantially more irreverent than their first. Good good. You know,
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 1: I think people stress way overly plan and way overly
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 1: stress their weddings, and then they rarely been to a
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 1: wedding where people actually had fun, because I mean I
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 1: mean talking about the groom and the bride. Everybody else
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 1: is having fun, but they're worried about this and that
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 1: and this family member that family member, and did I
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 1: throw the thing on the right angle? And did we
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 1: do the thing on the chair? And when is this?
• 1:53:16
  Speaker 1: When do we kept the cake? And when do we
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: do this? And when we do that? Chill, chill, just relax.
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 1: It's a party to celebrate. Don't have to do anything,
