Speaker 1 (00:02):
A lot of the fundamental misters of widow little cells
and an individuals. This is all right, everybody, welcome to
your one book show on this Thursday, December fourth. I

(00:27):
hope everybody's having a great week so far. And uh yeah, weekend,
it's just around the corner, all right. Uh so, uh
let's see, no real announcements. I don't have any real
announcements today. We will I'll see you tomorrow and on
Saturday we'll have a show probably both will be at

(00:50):
this time to be a East coast time. All right,
let's let's just jump in. I mean, we're going to
return to a topic that we keep returning to, and
I expect us to keep it to to this topic
because it's just keeps being out there and keeps being emphasized,
and it's a topic on which the left and the
right agree. Uh you know, you you It's one of

(01:11):
those topics that the populist left and the populist right
all agree about, and that is this idea that things
just suck today. I mean, Matt Walsh just had a tweet,
I mean just just just today this morning, just had
a tweet to reflect some of this in more broad
terms and then and then there's the whole economists think

(01:35):
thing about how you know you can't a vote anything
today and you could affote more in the past, and
and we'll go over some of that in a minute.
But here's here's Matt Walsh's tweet representing the right. But
this is I think this, This is feelings that you
get from the left as well. This is this could
be Elizabeth Waughan writing this. This could be pretty much
anybody writing this. Here's Matt Walsh. It's an empirical fact

(02:00):
that basically everything in ourday today lives has gotten worse
over time. Over the years. The quality of everything food, clothing, entertainment, air, travel, roads, traffic, infrastructure, housing, etc.
Has declined in observable ways. Even new inventions, search engines,

(02:21):
social media, smartphones have gone downhill, downhill drastically, not a
little bit drastically. This isn't a random old man yells
at the clouds complaint. It's true. It's happening that the
client can be measured. Everyone sees it, everyone feels it. Meanwhile,

(02:44):
political pundits and podcast hosts speaking of things that are
getting worse focus on anything and everything except these practical,
real problems that actually affect a quality of life. I mean,
it's true that pretty much everything that the gunment touches

(03:07):
has gotten worse over the years or is getting worse
to some extent, to some extent to another, But none
of this is really true. There are few things that
are getting worse that impact all of us. Education getting worse,
air traffic control getting worse. Air travel. Is it getting worse?

(03:33):
I mean maybe, but it's also getting cheaper and people
are doing it. I mean, if you just follow like
how much people do something, you assume that it's because
it's better or better for them within the context of
their lives and their abilities. People travel like one hundred

(03:54):
x what they used to, Like the Golden Age in
the nineteen seventies used to dress up in a suit
and tie and go to the airport, and most people
didn't fly like an American vacation was an American vacation.
Like in the nineteen seventies, it was you got it,
you got camper, and you got in a car and
you drove and maybe somebody, some of you feel nostalgic

(04:16):
to that, and that's great, good for you. I've done
I did those road trips. But today most Americans get
in their plane, they flying anywhere they want. I mean,
Americans are traveling more to Europe, they're traveling more to Asia,
They're seeing the world, They're traveling more. In the United States.
They're driving less, flying much much much much much much more.

(04:39):
So the travel might be worse. I don't know, space
for your knees or whatever. But it's so much cheaper
that people are doing it so much more that you
have to say that in the context of human life,
it is so much better. Food. Food, really, God, I mean,

(05:00):
I remember the nineteen seventies and what you can go
out there's no way to go out, what kind of
what kind of you know, options that you have fast
food and maybe some big chains and and and and
maybe an odd here in their Chinese restaurants, and but God,

(05:25):
think about the plufor of choices you have today, right
if you're foody or even a little bit of a food,
or you just enjoy food, the choices unbelievable. And and
and you can choose anywhere from a fast food but
a wide variety of fast food, much bigger than there
was in the seventies, to the fanciest restaurants possible. The

(05:48):
celebrity chef, the quality of the food, the healthy orientation
of the food. If you're vegan, if you're I don't know,
a carnivore, whatever you are, whatever type of diet you have,
the especiality restaurants that they go for you. And the
same with the supermarket. You're going to supermarket today. I mean, really,

(06:09):
you're insane if you think the variety is not so
much larger now. True, if you only like quote American food, flavorless, tasteless,
like meat and potatoes, then yeah, now there's flavor in
the food. And maybe you view that as a as
a downgrade. And I remember, like the nineteen seventies were

(06:32):
TV dinners. Maybe the variety of TV dinners has gone down,
maybe because we're more health conscious and now there are
other options, but like microwave dinners and living off of
microave dinners, maybe the quality of those has gone down.
I don't know. But oh my god. You can get
fruits and vegetables from anywhere in the world all year round.

(06:54):
You can get whatever you want. You want a boring
meat and potatoes dinner, yeah, you can get You can
get cobD meat. You can get meat from Japan, where
they massage the cows and they drink beer all day.
You can get anything you want. Things have gotten worse. Food.

(07:14):
You gotta be kidding me. Clothing, clothing, I mean, this
is where it just shows how ignorant this guy is
because he's got such narrow view of what is consumed
and what are the possibilities and what are the options,
and narrow view of everything. But God, there are more

(07:39):
options in terms of clothing today than ever before. You know,
maybe maybe the clothes last shorter, but I doubt it.
And you can get now especiality clothes for exercise, especiality
clothes for yoga, especially hoity clothes for I don't know what.
And and people have more clothes than ever because clothes
so cheap. And they're not cheap because they're worse. They're

(08:00):
cheap because they're cheap because they made in Bangladesh and
they're made in quantity. And if you look, you go
to the mall and you look at some of the
options in terms of the kind of kind of variety
of clothing and colors and styles I know, never in
human history, because they be more better, more choices now,

(08:22):
I know, right, I mean, the whole point of Matt Walsh,
his whole stick is choice is bad. Options are bad.
You should be white Christian with a white ful home
to make your dinner. Maybe it's what's cooking is not
that good. And he remembers his mother's cooking and he
misses that. And you should have three kids, maybe three
point two if you're really ambitious. A station wagon. Oh god,

(08:46):
no station wagons. That's why cause of deteriorated. Right now
he has an suv poor soul. And you know, no choices.
Choices are bad. But in all these realms they're more choices. Entertainment.
You know, I probably agree with him on entertainment. Art

(09:07):
is worse, education is worth. Anything to do with the
intellectual side is worse. Anything to do with the material
side much better, not even close, so much better. Housing housing, really,
nineteen sixties Davage house at American Bought was I think

(09:27):
under fifteen hundred square feet. Today it's over three thousand
square feet, so the houses have doubled in size. In
the nineteen fifties, many families would live in a house
together in order to be able to vote it. Today
we have small households. So not only do we have

(09:48):
three thousand square feet. It's two thousand square feet without
four kids, maybe with only two, maybe with zero. So
square feet per person living in the household has gone
through the roof, and the houses are just better. Refrigerators
are better, the stoves are better, the microwaves are better,

(10:08):
the gas stoves or electric stoves or whatever type of
whatever you call it. I don't know anything about kitchens
is better. All of it is better. I've given you
some stats on refrigeration. It's insanity. Now two infrastructure maintained
by governments, it's probably worse. Traffic is worse because, surprise, surprise,

(10:32):
in the nineteen seventies, fifties, sixties, people struggled to have
one car. Now they have two. Three foot every kid
has a call, everybody drives. Yeah, so traffic's gone up
because we have more people and everybody has a car.
Everybody has a car, and such sances have got it worse. Really,
does he tried trachypt as? He tried? You know what's

(10:55):
he talking about? Does he remember Yahoo? Social media is worse?
Well maybe I don't know. I have no idea. Smartphones
are worse. No, they're not. They're better, much better, hugely better,
not even in the same ballpark better. Never mind that
the very fact that you have a smartphone is a

(11:18):
modern phenomenon. This made life better. So it's true. This
is not the old man yells at clouds. This is
the bigoted, misogynistic, anti progress, anti Mondo unity conservative yelling

(11:44):
at the clouds. And he's wrong. He's just wrong on
everything everything. You know. Somebody points out that they can
order something at nine am in the morning and get
it chipped to the house by one pm in the
same day, and Matt Will's response to that is, yes,

(12:04):
you can get your cheap shit quickly, and it's still
cheap shit. It's cheap, it's not shit. Maybe he buys shit.
I don't buy shit. The stuff I get is mostly good.
And you know what if it's shit, you know what
I do. If it arrives and it's shit, what do
I do? I put it back in the box, turn
it around and send it back and get my money

(12:24):
back in the mail. Which is God just a miracle
that people will give you your money back. I mean, I
grew up in Israel, where nobody ever gave you your
money back. You bought something that was it, that was
for life. You could never get your money back. Even
if it turned out it was something else in the box,
then you intended. You never got your money back. In America,
you don't need sometimes you don't even need a receipts

(12:46):
and you get your money back. It's just my d
boggling to me how clueless people like Matt walshaw about
the world and how they their pessimism, the darkness, their
narrow mindedness sells as much as it does. I mean,

(13:08):
Matt walsh has three point nine million followers on Twitter,
three point nine million people exposed to his bullshit. It's
just and it's just untrue. It's unrelated to reality. And
what's amazing is pointing out reality, pointing out facts, pointing

(13:29):
out I mean, look what we're doing here. We're podcasting
as Matt Welsh does, but I'm doing it live, life
streaming life streaming all around the world, and it's instantaneous
and the quality is pretty damn good video live. How

(13:49):
much does it cost you to listen to you on
book show, particularly those who don't participate in the super
chat and don't go on payin, How does it cost
you nothing? Nothing? Life hasn't got a better I mean,

(14:12):
Matt Walls tapes his shows and he puts them up there.
I don't know if he does them to life. I
think he tapes them, puts them on there. How much
does it cost him to put them up there and
to get access to the world, literally the world with
his nonsense, with his crap, with his cheap shit. Not
a zero, He's really cheap. I think you might have

(14:38):
to buy a subscription to watch Matt Walsh's stuff here
in the Iron Book Show you get it for free.
That should make you want to trade value for value.
I don't see any superchats yet. Remember, you get to
dictate the content. With the superchats. You get to ask
questions that I then answer. And I know a lot
of you are saving up for the big New Years Eve,

(15:00):
but we got we gotta keep feeding. We gotta keep
running the show until New Year's Eve. It doesn't stop.
I should just go on vacation until New Year's Eve. Yeah,
I mean, it's just mind buggling to me. Just the
mentality that this requires to hold. This is the mentality

(15:22):
of a twelve twenty. Somebody wants to go back, and
somebody is obsessed with negativity and badness. I mean the
car he drives is so much safer than it was
in the in the nineteen seventies or eighties. It is
more sophisticated, it's more developed. Again, Matt is relatively young,

(15:43):
so maybe he doesn't know all this, and maybe maybe
it's also that he doesn't have much experience, right, he's
he was. He probably doesn't get out much. He probably
doesn't fly around the world much. Yeah, I mean, he
probably doesn't use this his phone that much. I don't know.
It sure appears that this ignorant is partially based on

(16:06):
lack of experience in living in life. And then you
have the economists like this finance guy who I told
you about, who published this essay about how in America
today poverty line is at one hundred and forty thousand dollars.
And since then there's been a lot of back and forth.
A lot of people have criticized it, and he's come

(16:27):
back and a lot of people have defended him, and
it's gone back and forth and so on. But the myth,
you know, the myth persists, you know, the basically you
cannot you cannot you know, in nineteen sixty three or whatever,
you know, in this essay, this guy writes. He writes,
and this is a really good essay today published by

(16:49):
Matt and Glesis. In this substax slow boring, and he writes,
I mean the guy who wrote one hundred and forty thousand,
Guy Green, Michael Green. Between nineteen twenty twenty four, everything changed,
and that today's a family needs two incomes to maintain
the standard of living. They used to be provided by one.

(17:15):
Here's what you wrote. The labor market shifted, the labor
model shifted. A second income became mandatory to maintain the
standard of living the one income formally provided. But a
second income meant childcare became mandatory, which meant two cars
became mandatory. Or maybe you'd simply be asking for a
lot of a lot, generationally speaking, because living near your

(17:37):
parents helps to defray those childcare costs. So you can't
move because you have to stay in your parents. Now
here's the thing. We need to compare apples to apples.
If you want a nineteen sixty three lifestyle, if you
are willing to live in a nineteen sixty three home

(18:00):
and your wife, you know, maybe maybe this is what
med Welsh does. Although Medwalsh makes millions of dollars, so
he probably doesn't. But if you want to live in
nineteen sixty three standards where the wife stays at home,
it doesn't work. Of course if she doesn't work, no
need for childcare, right, because she can take care of
the kids. And you don't go out to restaurants because

(18:23):
she kiks, right, she's not cooking, And you're willing to
live in a house like you could have lived in
nineteen sixty three. So let's say what you know if
you went out there and actually bought a house that
is about you know, fifteen hundred square feet, sixteen hundred

(18:45):
square feet this house posting I see here. This is
in Jacksonville. Jacksonville is about the median city in America
in terms of costs in terms of wages, so wages
about where the median is, and house spices about where
the median is. It's pretty pretty representative. You could buy,

(19:06):
you could rent this house for two thousand dollars a month,
sixteen hundred square feet. It's got three bedrooms, two baths.
And since you were living at trad con trad we're
not con just trad life, right, you probably have you
have four kids, so the kids would have to double
up in a bedroom. But I doubled uped with my
brother in a bedroom, and my sister's doubled up in

(19:27):
their bedroom. And that's how we lived. We had one
bathroom in the entire apartment. It was about I don't know,
twelve hundred square feet maybe fourteen hundred square feet the
whole apartment with one to three four bedrooms. You know,

(19:50):
my dad had an office in the home. Parents had
a bedroom, and we doubled up in the two bedrooms. Right,
That's how people lived. And we had a we had
one bathroom for all six of us, six people, one bathroom.
If you're willing to live like that, there's plenty of

(20:11):
homes you can buy for that kind of money. You
can rent for two thousand bucks. You can rent a
whole home like that. Now, if you're making kind of
the median, which is I don't know, about eighty thousand
a year, right, if you're in the age group of
thirty five to fifty four, which is the Pea coating

(20:31):
years and where you have kids, and you're making eighty
thousand a year, you can buy a home. You can
rent a home for two thousand dollars a month. That
kind of home, and your wife can stay home she
doesn't work, and you can have one car, and yeah,
you can have it all. No need for childcare. By
the way, this particular house Injectiononville is in a neighborhood

(20:53):
where the school is rated really high, so it's a
little bit more expensive, probably because school district is good.
So the whole thing is really really stupid. Now, it's
true college tuition has gone up, but you know, most

(21:13):
people didn't go to college in the nineteen sixties. Who
said all four of your kids need to go to
college certainly didn't happen in the sixties. We survived. Child
cares up, but you don't need childcare because your wife
is home. Health care costs up, you know that's true.
But you know, if you have a job. One, if

(21:34):
you have a job, you're probably getting health care through
your employee anyway. And you know, one person having a
job you can get the employer will pay your health
care for six people. So if you want to live
a trad life, you can live a trad life. Here's

(21:55):
the problem. Nobody wants to live that life. Nobody wants
to live that life. People are ambitious and in order
to achieve their ambitions, not just monetarily, but in terms
of fulfillment in life. Women go to work. They don't

(22:16):
go to work just for the money, because it's true that,
particularly in early days, and particularly if you have four kids,
a lot of that money just goes to pay the childcare.
But they want to have a job because it's fulfilling
and because you know what, one day the kids will
grow up and they continue to have a job. So

(22:38):
you know, women want fulfilling lives, say, go on and work,
or they go on and study, they go to school,
so they're not at home to take care of the
kids and to cook all your meals so you don't
have to go to restaurants. And you have a huge
number of restaurants in the world right now because people
are not cooking at home and they want to go

(22:58):
up the choices. Those are choices that indeed have enhanced
human life, particularly if you're a woman. Not maybe it
worse now. It's true if you're a tadman, traditional man,
and you expect the woman to be in the house
cleaning and taking care of the kods and washing and

(23:22):
cooking all day, and you don't want your wife to
have an education or career or to do anything too interesting,
then yeah, life might suck for you. Good. I'm cool
with that. I'm cool with people who have Neanderthal attitudes,
having you know, unhappy lives. That is not a bad thing.

(23:47):
It's actually called I think it's called justice. Justice. The
reality is that people have two incomes, not be they
need two incomes to live the lifestyle of the nineteen sixties.
They have two incomes because they want to live the
lifestyle of somebody in twenty twenty five. They want to

(24:09):
go to nice restaurants, They want to have a three
thy five hundred square foot home, particularly if they have
four kids. They don't want to have four kids. They
only want to have two kids and both want to
have careers, and they want to have nice stuff and
two cars and a nice home. They don't want to

(24:33):
be stuck in the sixties. So the reason we have
two income households is not because wages are down. It's
because wages are up. The reality is women can go
out now and make a good living. Nineteen sixties had
very few opportunities even if they wanted to go out
into the workforce. Workforce was not taking women. There weren't

(25:01):
enough jobs and they weren't interested in women. There was
clear discrimination. That's changed. Women have become more ambitious and
then and workplaces have opened up, so as we become richer,
not poorer. Richer. More people are working and that makes them,

(25:22):
as a household even richer. But of course expenses have
gone up as well. But expenses have gone up not
because we're maintaining a nineteen sixty three lifestyle, but because
we're maintaining a completely different, far superior, materially, far superior
materially lifestyle and spiritually, by the way, because a woman

(25:45):
working is spiritually better than women not working, or woman
getting an education or pursuing her passion is false superior
than a woman not doing that spiritually, then we are
living at a much better materially and spiritually spiritual way
of life. Nostalgia I mean, if you want to have

(26:07):
nostalgia for the spirit of the nineteenth century, for the
sense of life of the nineteenth century, for the music
and novels of the nineteenth century, I'm with you. For
the intellectual rigor and passion and interest of a very
small class of people, granted, but of the enlightenment of

(26:27):
the founding fathers. Yeah, I'm with you, but from a
material perspective, I will say it again, over and over
again and again. If you're a woman, if you're black,
if you're a minority of any kind, if you're gay,
it's never been better to be alive than right now.

(26:48):
If you're a trad man, I feel sorry for you
because the reality is that history is going to leave
you way behind. Unless you know the thiritarians come about
and impose a trad life on us. Most of us
do not want a trad life. We want a twenty
first century life. In that sense, we have even socially

(27:15):
better than we will. All right, so much for the nonsense.
And again it's not it's not a left or right issue.
It's on both left and right. They both think this,
and just generally people think this. It's crazy. All right,

(27:39):
all right, let me do my reminder. We have a
goal for every hour of the show. We're almost half
an hour into the show. We're not even scraping the
surface of the first goal, our goal, so please consider
doing the super Chats twenty dollars. The next thing about
super Chats is, I know many of you have questions

(27:59):
for me, or want to challenge me, or think I'm
completely wrong about something. The super chat is a great
way to get your voice heard, and the thousands of
people who listen to watch the show will actually hear
it because I will read every single super Chat, no
matter what you write in it. So and I do.
I answer all the questions. I read all the super Chats.

(28:20):
Sometimes slips into the next show, not today. I don't
think we'll have that many, but you know, yeah, I
read them all. So come and participate, engage. I know.
I see a lot of comments on the comments after
the videos about things people disagree with me. I wish
they'd come on the show and tell me and ask

(28:40):
questions and challenge me on the question. We get a few,
we get a few, but come on the show. I
love to answer the crazy stuff that you guys think.
I love to respond to it. And yeah, somebody's writing
about Einran being Jewish. Asked me about that? What I

(29:05):
think about being Jewish? Generally ask me about it. That'd
be cool, all right. So another set of mythologies that
exists out there, and a lot of what we do
in the show is talk about kind of the bs
that that goes for commentary and news out there in

(29:28):
the world. Another set of mythologies we talked yesterday about,
like the complete distortion of history and how people are
radical radicalized by some of the most stupid stuff there is. Yeah,
super chep me was Gnub. I don't know who Gnub
is anyway. Yeah. So one of those that I saw

(29:53):
yes yesterday. I was going to comment on it yesterday
but didn't ever, you ran out of time. One of
those was one of those is a headline I read,
and this is the headline, white fertility collapsed. The rest
of the planet didn't. Now, I just scratched my hair

(30:17):
had quite a bed on that one. White fertility. First
of all, it's just bizarre to me that people think
in terms of whiteness. I don't know what that means.
I don't really care. Why should I care if white
fertility collapsed? Why do I care about white people? Who

(30:38):
the fo white people? What is white people? What does
it even mean? I mean the amount of what's called melt.
Melt is something in your skin that determines whether you're
white or not. Why is that important? How does that
determine anything? How is that relevant for anything? I really do,
and I know many of you will be insulted by this.

(31:00):
They'll be, I'll be the comment section will just go
nuts over this. But I can't wait for the day
when you know we're all mutts wall you can differentiate us.
There's no line, right, I mean, people are really really

(31:20):
dark have now become you know, less dark, and people
really really light and become less light, and we're all
basically the same from an insignificant perspective of the color
of us skin. Maybe well, then focus on something else.
I don't know the shape of our eyebrows. I'm sure
they won't because racists won't give up. They won't give up.

(31:43):
They'll they'll find other distinguishing characteristics. Who the hell cares?
Race doesn't exist. It's a complete social construct. It's a
made up thing really, from the late eighteenth century and
into the nineteenth cent. Human beings exist, individual human beings,

(32:08):
And of all the characteristics one can attribute to individual
human beings, the skin color seems to me to be
the least important, the least significant, the least meaningful. So
the first thing that struck me in the headline is white.
Who cares? Second, it's just false, it's true. White fertility

(32:28):
is collapsed. But then the second part is the rest
of the world didn't. That's just completely, utterly, unbelievably false.
The article says, then, in the generation now starting school
is the first and recorded history that will grow up
on a planet where people of European descent are a

(32:49):
shrinking global minority. I mean people of European descent have
always been a minority, and yes, the shrinking, but so
is everybody else. Have you seen birth rates in Asia?
Like have you seen the birth rates in South Korea?
South Koreans are disappearing faster than Europeans Japanese. Have you

(33:16):
seen the birth rates in China? I mean Asians, East
Asians are disappearing. Even in India, which has had relatively
very high birth rates, their birth rates are collapsing. They're not,
you know, way down there below Evaser yet. But if

(33:36):
you look, you know, Italy is at one point two
five children per woman. I mean South Korea and Japan
would would would would kill for one point two four,
Spain one point two three, Germany one point three six.
Remember two point one is replacement. Poland one point twenty six,
Canada one point three three, Australia one point five eight.
Even the US non Hispanic white rate is only one

(33:59):
point six four. Yeah, meanwhile Toky is one point nine nine.
But here's the thing. The headline didn't say that fertility
in other countries, cultures, parts of the world, was that

(34:20):
it was higher than than in Europe. That's not what
the headlines say. It said fertility is collapsing. Well, fertility
is collapsing. In Tokey, it used to be three four five,
it's now only two. And guess what direction that's heading down?
Each of two point nine down from like six. Nigeria's

(34:40):
five point two down from like eight. Pakistan is three
point four down from like six, Indonesia two point two
down from like four five, and most of Sahavan Africa
remains above four down from above eight. The world fertility
is collapsing, and the reality is. The reality is this

(35:06):
was a really interesting data point that I didn't realize,
But it's true. Who do you think has more kids
in America today? Put people or rich people? Put aside
race because that's unimportant, but put people of rich people,
who has more kids? Who has more kids? In Europe?

(35:29):
In European countries, put people a rich people. The answer
is rich people, rich people having more kids than poor people.
Partially because with all the opportunities that are available, rich
people can afford to have their to have you know,

(35:52):
two family incomes, and to pay for childcare and for
an suv and for a big house. Put people have
fewer kids because they can't afford the childcare. The mother
still has to work, but they can't affoid the childcare,
and therefore they had fewer kids. So you're much more
likely to three to see in the US three kids

(36:14):
in a family that is relatively wealthy than you are
in a family that's poor. And my guess, my guess
is that you will see start seeing that on a
national basis, poor countries their fertility rates are going to collapse.

(36:37):
Now I know you you know, these people don't care
about poor and rich. They care about skin color. It
happens that the poor countries also have different skin colors
than white, so the whites tend to be richer, at
least for now. So you know what you're getting is,
you know, complete change. The fertility is going to change.

(37:08):
The dynamics of fertility are changing dramatically to loge extent,
and I'd say overwhelmingly because women have opportunity costs. They
have other options they have alternatives. They don't have to
stay home and have kids four five sixty seven. They
can actually go study at university. They can go work

(37:32):
and make money and become less dependent on a man.
They can marry later and have maybe two kids or
one kid, or no kids at all, and live a
fulfilled life. I know some of you think that's impossible,
but in reality, it's very possible. So the reality is

(38:04):
the birth rates are going down all over the world.
I expect them to go down for a long time,
for decades to come, as poor countries become richer, as
women in poor countries gain rights and get the opportunity
to go out and actually work, as the opportunity cost

(38:29):
of not working, you know, it's just ridiculous. So they
work because again of the independence and the pleasure that
that brings them. And then what I expect will happen

(38:51):
is as people become richer and they have living robots
to do a lot of the you know, day to
day stuff that needs to get done, and maybe they
have AI tutors for their kids. And you know, who knows,
we've become really, really rich, we'll start having more kids.
And I think which people will lead that effort, we'll

(39:13):
have more kids. I mean, isn't it like the guy
who has the most kids right now is a lune
musk ideas what thirteen fourteen kids? And it's fascinating to
me that thed trador whatever don't know what to do
with their luonn musku is. On one hand, he's having
a lot of kids. That's good, we love kids, we

(39:33):
want it to be and you know, and then mostly
white kids. But he's doing it in this unconventional way
by sleeping with lots and lots of different women who
land up raising the kids by themselves, and the trad
guys that are like, oh, that's wrong, that's somehow, that's
how we're all wrong. But you know, but he's a guy,
so it's okay. Maybe Here's the thing, though, The thing

(39:58):
that really upsets them is not fertility rates are really collapsing.
It's not even the white fertility rates are collapsing. What
really upsets them. What really upsets them is immigration. Continuation
of the story. This is Mario Nafal on Twitter. Lay
on top of the largest sustained migration in human history

(40:21):
between twenty twenty twenty five, roughly one hundred and ten
million people moved from the global South to the north,
North America, Europe, and Australia, with un projections showing another
two to three hundred million by mid century. No previous empire,
no previous century, has ever been population has seen such
population movements on this scale. Yeah, I mean, it's not

(40:45):
that long ago that the entire human population, not that
long ago at all, was five hundred million people. So
I don't know if they mean that in terms of
migration as a percentage of the total population, or they
mean that as a shier number. Clearly is a she
in a number it's never been seen before, because there's
never been this many people before, And they say the

(41:06):
result is already visible in every major Western city, Native
children are minorities today in the public schools of London, Paris, Emsdam, Stockholm, Toronto, Sydney,
and most large American metros. The rest of the West
is simply next in line. By twenty forty twenty fifty,
the native born European descent will be minorities in the
under thirty age group in every single Western country without exception.

(41:31):
There is no longer a national story. It is the
biggest demographic turnover the world has ever witnessed. I somehow
doubt this is true, completely doubt this is true. Happening
in one human lifetime driven by fertility differentials, no government
has ever reversed and migration flows, no democracy has ever

(41:53):
stopped once they reach a critical mass. So much bs there,
partially because the world's never being this rich, never being
this prosperous, never being this easy to move, never being
this easy to communicate, never being this easy to produce,

(42:16):
never lived this long. Yeah, everything that happens from now
on is going to be different than what's happened in history,
because we are dramatically different than anything that's happened in history.
So yeah, here's the headline. I think it was the

(42:37):
same day, right a little later on the same day,
and this one was was this one was retweeted. I
think they were both retweeted by lun Musk, but this
one was definitely retreated by lun Musk. White nations, White nations.
It used to be coude and uncouth to even talk
this way, and now it's like poor white nations in

(43:00):
sinc The replacement is no longer a theory. Again. Mariona
Fazz goes on in what statisticians are labeling the most
coordinated demographic event ever recorded. Coordinated. Who's exactly coordinating in this?
Every single major white Western country has since early nineteen
nineties simultaneously slashed native birth rates below revelation. That's right.

(43:24):
I mean the government basically had a one child policy
in the West. They slashed. Every culture slashed. It's from
the top down slash birth rates. It's so this is
I mean, he considers himself journalists. This is such garbage reporting.

(43:44):
Nobody slashed birth rates. Birthrates went down, not because anybody
decided they should go down, but because individuals made decisions
about their own lives. And you see, but when you
don't think about individuals, when you can only think about groups,
only think about nations, only think about races, only think
in terms of collectives tribes, then birth rates were slashed.

(44:08):
But no individuals made decisions in their own context, of
their own lives that led to low birth rates. Okay,
who cares simultaneously slash native birth rates? Somebody slashed made
birth rates below replacement while importing importing, I love that
word importing. We brought them in, We bought them like slaves.

(44:29):
Importing third world migration at levels that now drive eighty
to one hundred percent of their population growth. Census bureaus
from Washington to Warsaw are spilling the same terrifying numbers.
Farn Born shares of double triple, the worst in just
one generation. Oh my god, the world is going to end.
Sweden nineteen percent, Germany twenty percent, Canada pushing thirty percent.

(44:52):
Fans in the UK on the same trajectory. The platterin
is identical, the timing eerily aligned. There's a concer expiracy here.
There has to be. It's all planned. It's the world
Economic Forum. I think even Iceland, even Iceland has got
now twenty three point one percent farign Born. Iceland will

(45:16):
never be the same. That white ice and the white
skin that people have was attuned, people were tuned with nature.
And now there'll be brown skin on ice, on white snow.
I don't know if that's allowed. That's that's all wrong.
It goes against nature, it goes against the harmony whatever

(45:39):
aging boomers, collapsing pensions, corporate demand for endless growth, and
a corporate demand for endless growth. I love that. And
a post nineteen forty five legal framework weaponized to make
restrictive possible radioactive. No single phone call is no single
phone callers ever needed. The incentives locked in the media, narrative,
locked in the NGOs, and thought's locked in. The scent

(46:02):
was simply labeled hate until the numbers became undeniable. No
differentiation here between Islamist migration dedicated to turning Europe into
an Islamist caliphud and just plain old people migrating for
economic reasons, which is wonderful. Yeah, some migration is bad.

(46:29):
If the migrants are coming in order to change you,
that's bad. But if the migrants are coming to change themselves,
that's good. But you can't differentiate those because what matters
really to these people is skin color. Skin color. I mean,

(47:00):
if Mariana Fas is worried about Africa having high birth rates,
I've got a solution for it. He should advocate for
women to be educated for feminist emancipation and birth rates
in Africa will go down. Happens everywhere everywhere. Now there's

(47:23):
an issue about people not having kids and not getting married.
I think people are missing out by doing so. But
that's a different conversation worth having about the value of
marriage and the value of having kids. And you know,

(47:44):
the lack of meaning in the modern world. And you know,
it's a funny thing, is how much I find myself
on these shows defending the modern world when I'm such
a big critic of it. Because the criticisms I hear
are so off base, are so misaligned with reality, are

(48:07):
so you know, unconnected to what's really going on and
what the real problems are. Then I find myself constantly
defending the status quo. I don't want the status quo.
I want to blow up the status quo, but not
to go backwards to twelve twenty, but to go forward
to twenty two hundred. Not to reject the Enlightenment and

(48:34):
embrace a Christian theocracy as an white Christian theocracy, as
most of these people do, but because I want to
go forward to fully embrace the Enlightenment, fully, embrace reason fully, embrace,
embrace self interest fully, fully fully embrace capitalism, and then
see what individuals choose to do with their life. Have kids,

(48:56):
not have kids, by a big house, by a small house, work,
stay home, get married, not get married. I want people
to have choices, choices in the best possible world, in
a world where they have many, many, many good choices,

(49:19):
not in the world in which we live with you know,
a lot of crappy choices, a lot of choices dictated
by from above by governments, and a lot of you know,
garbage analysis and commentary by out people who call themselves intellectuals.

(49:40):
All right, we are approaching the end of the first hour.
We're still short in terms of our goals. So if
you would like to support the show, see it grow,
and if you would like to just value for value
for the content you're receiving, jump in with a sticker,
any amount with a question. Questions twenty dollars, fifty dollars,

(50:03):
questions are particularly appreciated. All right, let us continue with this,
with the with the discussion, because the next story I
have is about talent and immigration. And you know, there's
a story today post today on the American Enterprise Institute's
website talking about immigration and the reality that if you

(50:28):
look at today's economy, today's economy is driven by a
relatively small set of individuals who are pushing forward. Economic
growth today is dependent on a few industries, mainly in
Silicon Valley, that are pushing things forward. Chip makers, things
like chip makers, you know, designers, you know, AI programmers,

(50:53):
you know, this is in research groups technology. This is
where things are being pushed and where economic growth manifests itself.
If you think about that, you know you need to

(51:14):
be high skilled for that to keep pushing the frontiers
of innovation, the frontiers of science, the frontiers of engineering,
the frontiers of AI and everything that it implies. And
even when it comes to national security, if you constantly
want to combat the latest generation of drones, the latest
generation of AI, the latest generation of electronic interference, you

(51:39):
need smart people. You need a lot of smart people.
You need people with extraordinary abilities. It's the kind of
cognitive abilities that maybe one in one thousand people have
that would make about one hundred and sixty four thousand

(51:59):
Americans eligible. And let's say out of those, maybe one
hundred thousand are actually going to go into these areas
and fields and actually manifest this. One hundred thousand. That's it.
One hundred thousand people are going to drive the US economy.
I mean, there's just not enough Americans now. The way

(52:21):
we've done this in the past is no problem. We
suck into America the best, the smartest, the most able,
the most hard working people in the world. We bring
them to this country from everywhere. Indeed, China has played
a huge role in this. You know, five Asian countries India, China,

(52:44):
South Korea, Japan, and Philippines account for over thirty eight
percent of the growth in US software developers, twenty five
percent of the increase in scientists and engineers, twenty one
percent in the growth of physicians between nineteen ninety and
nineteen nineteen. So we would have significantly less software engineers, scientists,

(53:07):
physicians if we hadn't brought people in from those five
Asian countries. You know, in twenty nineteen, we had four
hundred thousand Chinese students studying in American universities. That was
more than a third of all international students in America.

(53:30):
Now that is declining significantly, and it's going to decline
even more under the you know, under the Trump administration.

(53:50):
I mean, when Meta launched its super Intelligence Lab, it
hired eleven researchers, eleven people into the super Intelligence Lab.
These are the best of the best in AI, all
of them, all eleven, every single one of them was
an immigrant. Seven of the eleven were from China. Indeed,

(54:18):
one third of the world's top AI scientists researchers are Chinese,
and most of those work in the United States. So
if you cut people off, if you don't accept Chinese immigration,
these people stay in China, and all the talent stays
in China. It doesn't come here. Does that benefit of

(54:40):
the United States, But we stay white and poor and
maybe occupied by the Greater Chinese Empire one day because they,
you know, they sucked up all the talent we didn't.
We're trying to restrict immigration. We're trying to restrict immigration

(55:01):
from everywhere. We're trying to restrict immigration of talented people,
of exceptional people, trying to restrict immigration in particular of Chinese.
And it's nuts. It is completely nuts. It's insane. Now, yeah,
we've got some security issues with China and you have

(55:22):
to vet these people and you have to watch out
fur them, but it's worth it. A few of them
will be spies, will survive, will thrive. Some of those
European scientists we brought in after World War Two who
all build atomic bombs and our hydrogen bombs and stuff,
turned out to be spies too. All we still beat

(55:45):
the Soviets, we still did better. And part of why
we beat the Soviets. Part of why we beat communism,
part of why we're richer than China, part of why
we're still the most successful country in the world is
because we've been open to immigrants, wide open to immigrants.
And now we view immigrants as a pest, as diluting

(56:09):
our whiteness, as making us poorer, as making us more violent.
All untrue, But it doesn't matter statistics. Don't let statistics
ever interfere with you know, I mean, don't let facts.
Don't let reality ever interfere with ideal you know, people's

(56:29):
ideology out there. I mean, a good friend Miller in
the Trump administration says migrants is just avatars of the
average characteristics of their own home country. This is not true.

(56:53):
Immigrants are individuals. Some of them are bad. Some of
them are bad, and you should deal with them, deport them,
put them in prison. But when they come here, if
we let them, if we encourage them, and mainly if

(57:14):
we just don't give them handouts, they don't become images
of what they wore back then. I mean, the best
example of this are Indians. I mean, Miller claims, to
quote Milla, that they recreate the conditions and terrors of
their broken homelands. Look at Indians, Indians a poor country

(57:41):
with a lower GDP per capita than Jamaica, Guatemala, South Africa,
very poor country, not hygienic, not a pleasant place. And
yet Indians come to America they become super ye, super successful.

(58:02):
They're a median household income, way above the American average,
even white American average. They're way over represented when it
comes to CEOs at elite colleges. And yet Indias in
India have arranged marriages and their tribal and they're you know,

(58:23):
they have a caste system. You know, they're untouchables. I mean,
it's completely cast different. They come to America and except
America as it is, and all those traditions, all those
all those bad stuff, it breaks away, it dissolves, it
goes away within one maybe two generations, all gone. But
think about how many of the leading CEOs in America

(58:44):
today are Indian. How many of Indians children of Indian
immigrants are in elite colleges. Now, it's true that the
people who immigrate from India the United States are not random.
They're the people who have the ambition, the wherewithal to

(59:07):
immigrate to America. They have above average drive. They're more conscientious,
the more ambitious they want to be in America. They
don't want to be in India anymore. And that's true
of almost all immigrants. I mean, the idea of keeping
immigrants out, particularly successful Indian immigrants out, is barbaric. American

(59:31):
whites who want to keep Indians out of America on Neanderthals,
it's barbaric. It's placing an essential on your skin color.

(59:54):
Or they're just cowards. Really, this is it. They're afraid
of the competition. They're afraid a beaten for their job
by somebody who doesn't look like them, who's going to
make more money than them, who's going to be more
successful than them. Oh, Fred's an electrician. He doesn't want

(01:00:16):
competition from Indian electricians. They might actually be better at
their jobs than Fred. They might make more money than Fred.
They might get the kids into Harvard easier than Fred
gets his kids into Harvard. So yeah, immigration birth rates.

(01:00:49):
Nostalgia for some distant past is so much driven by
a zenophobia, a racism, a kind of a barbaric you know,
longing for some distant place that never really existed. And

(01:01:13):
it's driven more than anything by fear. It's driven by blood.
Heites who don't want their life challenge, don't want their
income challenge, don't want their jobs challenged, don't want their
culture challenged. It's the culture, they tell me. Well, I mean,
if you believe your culture is so good as we did,

(01:01:36):
as we used to believe in this country, then we
assimilate everybody. They adapt to our culture. We don't adapt
to theirs. Again, they're cowards, they're afraid. They actually don't
believe in American culture. They don't believe the American culture
is strong. They don't believe the American culture is resilient.
And maybe elements of American culture are not. Maybe that

(01:02:01):
part of the culture that involves sitting around on your
sofa drinking beer, watching TV, skimping on work, skimping on education,
skimping on ambition, relying on welfare, maybe that part of
the American culture needs to die. And maybe some boost

(01:02:24):
of some energy for migrants who will compete with you.
But the part of American culture, the independence that don't
step on me, go get them the wealth, creation, including
the sports and everything else. If we're so confident that

(01:02:44):
that's good and it is good, I think then the
immigrants will just assimilate into it. The Jews who came
in the late nineteenth century, and the Irish and the Italians,
the Eastern Europeans and the Russians who came here, they
didn't have a similar culture to what America had in

(01:03:05):
the nineteenth century. They loved, they changed within a couple
of generations. They were Americans, just like anybody else. So
what is it you're afraid of that they have a
different color skin. I don't have hostility towards Americans. I
love Americans. I am an American God. I have hostility

(01:03:27):
towards anybody of any skin color, any nationality that believes
believes in stagnation. I have hostility towards anybody of any
skin color who evaluates other people based on their skin
color or their nation of origin. I have hostility towards
anybody of any skin color who's a tribalist and a collectivist.

(01:03:51):
And the thing is about America and Americans that I love. Oh,
here we go, here we go. Here's the question. Right,
are you Jewish? There's the question? So yes, Fred is
not just not just afraid of immigrants that might change

(01:04:15):
his culture, but he's just afraid of Jews, or he
just hates Jews, or he just things we run the
world and are trying to destroy him. Good. I'm glad
he's afraid. He should be afraid. America that I love

(01:04:36):
is an America of individualism and America of individuals, an
America of ambition, an America of achievement, and America of nothing.
No aim is impossible, No great achievement is out of reach.

(01:04:58):
And America that ins people from anywhere in the world
as individuals and treats them the way they deserve, if
they're productive, if they good human beings, treats them well,
is it criminals, put them in jail or send them packing.

(01:05:23):
That's the America worth saving. That's the America worth protecting. Yeah,
here it is. Here's the anti Semitism coming through. Do
Jewish people, and I'm reading this in the chat just
because you have to confront some of these straight on.

(01:05:44):
Do Jewish people advocate for immigrants as a means of
protecting themselves as they have done poorly in countries that
are ethnically homogeneous. Really, Jews in England, they have done
phenomenally well. England's fairly used to be fairly homogeneous and
in the nineteenth century. Jews did amazingly well in England.

(01:06:05):
Jews did amazingly well in Germany, amazingly well. In ethnically
homogeneous Germany, Jews did better than Germans. Maybe that's why
they were hated so much. Jews have done everywhere well,
whether they have been in homogeneous society or heterogeneous societies.

(01:06:28):
I mean, just look at America. Have Jews done well
in America because people came in who are less good?
Or did Jews do well in America because they out educated, outcompeted,
out thought many of the nan Jews because they were
more American than many Americans. See, this is the thing.

(01:06:52):
People like freed have been left behind. They're not succeeding.
The Indians are doing better than them. Oh have done
better than them for generations. Now those immigrants, I'll compete them,
do better, live better lives, and feed as upset. Fred

(01:07:14):
as upset. I advocate for freedom. Immigration is just an
aspect of freedom. I advocate for American's right to employ
anybody he wants to. It's none of the government's business
if that's a Mexican, if that's a Guatemalan, as long

(01:07:35):
as they're not a threat as long as they're not
they don't violate people's rights. I advocate for individuals, individual rights, individualism.
I advocate for the America, America of the nineteenth century,
where people could come from anywhere in the world, and
as long as they worked and fed themselves, they thrived.

(01:08:01):
I advocate for immigrants because I love America and America
is the land of individuals of any skin color. Israel
is a multicultural state. This is a question, do you
want multicultural un Isuela? Israe is one of the most
multicultural places on planet Earth. There are Jews in Israel

(01:08:23):
from Morocco, from Yemen, from Iraq, from Uzbekistan, as well
as from Russia and from Poland, from France and from Spain,
from Ethiopia. There are black Jews, completely black skin Jews.
There are brown skin Jews. You want to tell me

(01:08:46):
about Israel, Fred, Really, you ever been there? How many
years have you lived in Israel? I love it when
people are going to lecture me about Israel. And of
these really population, twenty percent of these redly population I'm
not even counting the West Bank and Gaza just in
Israel are Arabs. They might be Muslim Arabs, though Christian Arabs,

(01:09:13):
but they're Abbs. The reason I am playing amount with
fred it is because you know, you say Fed is
done as a post. I don't think Fed is done
as a post. I think Fed is typical of what
many many people out there, many young people out there think,

(01:09:35):
many young people think out there. So yeah, Israel is,
as I said, multicultural place. Israel is a place that
has twenty percent Arabs. Israel is a place that has
people from all over the world. The only thing that

(01:09:56):
unites those people eighty percent is that none Jews consider
them Jews. That's the only thing that unites them. And
Israel is the place for Jews to escape to, that's all.
And you know I'm for that as long as anti

(01:10:17):
Semitism exists, that Jews have a place to escape to.
If Frenchmen were being hunted down, then it's good that
they be one country where Frenchmen can go where they
won't be hunted down. So that is, that is the

(01:10:39):
value of Israel. America is never ethnocentric state, and it
shouldn't be now, shouldn't be. Now? All right, let's do
a few of these quickly. First, climate change. I've told

(01:11:00):
you climate change is on the retreat. The environmentalist movement
is not having a good, good, good time. First, a
Trumpet administration today lowered this is the kind of stuff
that Trump does that is good, that is really good,
and this is kind of offsets all the bad offsets
in terms of economics, not in terms of the character

(01:11:21):
of the administration, but offsets in terms of economics the
bad stuff that he does. Trumpet administration today lowered fuel
economy rules for car makers, so Biden raised them. Now,
ideally they would go to Congress and eliminate them completely,
but you know, lowering them is better than nothing, and
lowering them is significant because if you lower them enough,

(01:11:43):
then you get to the point where it's not it
doesn't matter to auto companies. Now, I don't know if
you know how fuel economy works. They set a standard
like fifty miles per gallon, which is what I think
the Obama you know, the Biden standard was by twenty something,
twenty twenty thirty two. What that means is the every
car makeup on average, the car that it makes have

(01:12:06):
to be that. So they can make make SUVs and
pickup trucks that are gas guzzling, where actually American car companies,
you know, do very well with those cars. They make
a good profit on them. But in order to sell
those cars, they have to sell a bunch of small
cars that have very very high gas mileage, or maybe

(01:12:27):
they have to sell a bunch of electric cars in
order that are on average they're the fifty miles per gallon.
The lower that average is, the fewer electric cars, the
fewer small cars American companies can make, which is good.
It's good because American companies are not good at making
small cars. They never have been if the market had

(01:12:51):
been allowed to work, if the government never intervened. I believe,
I mean, I can't prove this, and maybe I'm wrong,
but I believe have happened is instead of the American
car company is going bankrupt every decade, American car companies
would have specialized in the cause that they have a
comparative advantage in because gas guzzling cars, pickup trucks, SUVs,

(01:13:18):
station wagons, and just big cause. And they would have
left the small cause to the Japanese and there would
have been a division of labor. There's absolutely no reason
for Ford and Ge General Motors to be making little

(01:13:38):
cars that they can't make any money on. They can't
make any money on and that, you know, they don't
make any sense to them. They're not particularly good at building.
They should build the stuff they're good at. They should specialize.
But the gas mileage rules, the fuel economy rules force

(01:14:03):
auto companies to make small cars. Trump blowing this allows
a little bit more specialization. Again, eliminating it would let
the car industry in a sense focus on specialization. I
mean BMW should make you know, uh, a model three

(01:14:23):
little sports Sedan's, Mercedes should make luxury cars to Yota
and and those guys should make should make small family cars.
There should be a division of Labman. The Chinese should
make electric cars. So this is great. Of course, the

(01:14:44):
environmentalists and the climate change people are going nuts because
these stands are being lowered, which means more gas guzzling,
which means more uh you know, uh, more yes, emissions. Uh.
The auto companies are loving it. General Motors Ford today
came out with a statement stellanis Kreisler. You know, I

(01:15:07):
really like this. So this is a This was a
very pro auto company move, but it's pro everybody moved.
This is a pro everybody move. It's a pro rights
pro freedom move. The second story I found with this
was really interesting and expected. But last year there was

(01:15:32):
a study published, an economic study published in Nature magazine. Nature,
of course is not an economic magazine, but it's a
science magazine, and the study was about the economic consequence
of climate change. It was an economic paper and it
basically said that climate change was going to be a disaster.

(01:15:53):
The research predicted decline of sixty two in world output
because of climate change by twenty one hundred, by twenty
one hundred, sixty two percent. Now, the study was criticized
almost immediately. People challenged them, and it turned out it's

(01:16:14):
this is funny. It's funny because this paper would have
never been published in the econ magazine economics magazine, because
this is just a stupid error that people would have
caught it very quickly. It turns out that one outlier,
one country outlier in the data, who's bicky stunt, That

(01:16:36):
outlier explains the entire sixty two percent decline. If you
take are as Bikki Stan out of the data, the
decline is only twenty three percent. And of course that
is such an amateur mistake, that is such a stupid
mistake in data analysis that the twenty two percent is
bogus probably as well. Of course other people. You could

(01:17:01):
challenge this paper on a one hundred different ways, but
the reality is that Nature has retracted the paper, which
is rare. The paper now if you click on it,
if you click on the paper, it's and this is
like a hugely cited paper. The UN Climate Reports cites
it in every climate organization in the world, every anti

(01:17:24):
fossil fuel group in the world have cited this paper
as proof that we need to do something about climate
change because climate change will destroy the economy of the planet.
And now at Nature, when you click out the paper,
it says retract that article. I love it. So climate
change is losing politically, it's losing the mind, the hearts

(01:17:47):
and minds of people. It's losing, and it's also losing
people are challenging it scientifically, its consequences scientifically, and there's
a lot more criticism if you actually run the numbers.
The amount of money to be invested in climate change

(01:18:08):
mitigation today, if you run the numbers properly, is zero
because of how much wealthier we will be if we
don't mitigate climate change. Climate change mitigation is unbelievably expensive.
And if you take that into account, then we're actually
better off suffering whatever economic damage happens because we're so

(01:18:28):
much richer and we can deal with whatever problems we
have later when we're richer. But you're never going to
see a paper like that published in Nature. But they
do exist out there in the economic literature in different places,
all right, quickly in Heckseth. Two stories today on Heckseth

(01:18:49):
one is the Bottom of Defense came back with its
conclusions about remember Hexseth texting with other people about the
operation and in Yemen months ago when the US bombed
the Hooties and basically you know. The report says the

(01:19:11):
Secretary sent non public Department of Defense information identifying the
quantity and strike times of manned US aircraft over hostile
territory over an unapproved, unsecure network approximately two to four
hours before the execution of those strikes, using a personal
cell phone to conduct official business and send non public

(01:19:34):
DoD information through signal risks, potential compromises of sensitive Department
of Defense information which could cause harm the defensive Department
personnel and mission objectives. In other words, hexset actions could
have engaged US pilots and US goals for the mission.

(01:19:57):
Hexset does not have the power to declassif fine, you
can't just by tweeting it make it declassified. You know
what's clear here with that? Uh? You know heck Sith
acted completely inappropriately during this and that this for any

(01:20:18):
other person, any other person, would have been a reason
to dismiss hex Sith, on the other hand, wrote no
classified information, total exoneration case closed, untrue, untrue. Inspector General

(01:20:40):
found that he again, I read it to you identified
you know, department non public, department defense information. That's classified information,
strike times, strike weapons, classified information. You can read the
report yourself. And yet he will not be fired. He

(01:21:03):
will now be fired. There. Report actually states if this
information had fallen into the hands of US advertaries, HUTI
forces might have been able to county US forces or
reposition personnel and assets to avoid planned US strikes. Even

(01:21:26):
though these events did not ultimately occur, the secretary's actions
created a risk to operational security that could have resulted
in failed US mission objectives and potential harm to US pilots.
This is a fireable offense. He should be fired for
this now. Of course, the second story is about the

(01:21:46):
bombing of the boats. The admiral who approved that accept
the claims he went to the bathroom and wasn't in
the room when that happened. You love a commander, a
a senior officer, the guy in charge of things, blaming
subordinates and claiming he was out peeing while the decisions

(01:22:08):
were made to cover his ass. I mean, Hexeth is
just pathetic, just pathetic, just pathetic. Should be fired for

(01:22:29):
both of those things. For not taking responsibility for the
boat strike, I mean, the boat strikes illegal anyway. They
should all they should all be fired for that. Trump
should be impeached for that. Uh uh. And he should
be fired for revealing or discussing classified information over an
unsecure network. Any other defense Chairman of chief, head of

(01:22:52):
the Defense Department, Secretary of War would have been fired. Finally,
I saw this story. This is kind of interesting and
fits into what we do here. It says that Americans
are paying a lot less attention to the news than
they used to. In twenty sixteen, which was the first
year Pew ran the survey, asking Americans if they're likely
to follow the news, closely fifty percent of Americans said yes.

(01:23:17):
Today it's thirty six percent. So Americans, this is true
of Democrats, true of Republicans. People are you know, listening
to the news, following the news, tracking the news a
lot less? A lot of it has to do with
the fact that they are convinced now that the news
is reported by mainstream media, but as well as the

(01:23:40):
non mainstream media is just unreliable and just it's not
worth it. It's what I tell you all the time. Don't
listen to news, don't keep track of it. Just come
to you Iron Book Show for our daily news shows,
and you'll get everything you need to know. There's nothing
in the news right now. I don't cover that you

(01:24:01):
need to know. And if I don't catch it today,
I'll catch it tomorrow. So yeah, this saves you. So
you know that I'm I guess having news shows like
this is part of their fifty one percent going to
thirty six percent. I do this. You don't have to
follow the news closely. Maybe there seems to be a

(01:24:22):
market for this, Maybe not for my particular views about
the news. Not maybe not for my particular you know opinions,
but for condensing the news and not having to follow it,
you know, as closely as maybe people once used to
would be good. And then finally, this is just a

(01:24:42):
funny thing. I saw this video of Christy Gnome yesterday.
So you know how Pam Bondi in the past has
said that President Trump has saved two hundred and fifty
eight million lives by stopping the floor of fence and
all into the United States. Two hundred and fifty eight
million lives. Now, no one that we haven't stuck to

(01:25:06):
flow fentanyl into the United State. It's still flowing in.
But secondly, the total number of overdoses in the United
States is seventy thousand. Seventy thousand. How are you going
to save two hundred and fifty eight million lives? That
assumes all of us would take fentanyl if not for
Donald Trump. And Donald Trump has prevented all of us
from taking fentanyl. And she says this, Pam Bondi, who

(01:25:30):
is an intelligent woman. I mean she has to be,
because she's she's you know, she's a you know, head
of the Justice Department. You have to be intelligent to
do that. No, No, no, two hundred and fifty eight million. Anyway,
Trump on Monday said that he has saved three hundred
million people no, he said on Monday, the three hundred

(01:25:53):
million people have died last year from drugs. Three hundred
million people. Wow, that would empty America. That would make
America very very thin if three hundred million people had died.
I mean, FED would like that if the people who
had died were all of non white skin color, and
whites could be a majority again. Oh, maybe we can

(01:26:16):
get the right drugs into the right hands. We could
do that. Well, Chris chrisy known today or no yesterday, yesterday,
when during the or the day before, whenever the cabinet
meeting was. She said, You've saved She says this to Trump,
You've saved hundreds of millions of lives with the cocaine

(01:26:38):
you've blown up in the Caribbean. Cocaine was not coming
to America, by the way, Cocaina was not coming to America. FED.
I'm not labeling you anything. I'm just I'm just identifying
your views from what you have said. You're worried about

(01:26:59):
white Americas on track to becoming minority. You don't like that.
I was just suggesting a path to make them a
majority again, because that's what you care about, that's what's
important to you. That matters to you. Now that is racist,
that it matters to you. That is absolutely one hundred
percent racist. That's just a fact. That's just the definition

(01:27:19):
of racism. But put that aside. I mean, I'm just
just trying to help you out here, give you, give
you a way to achieve your goal. I know, you know,
people don't like to be called racists. And you know,

(01:27:40):
and and they reflect back to when they left called
people racist when they weren't racists. But this is the problem.
Some pay people, sometimes people are racists, some pay people.
Sometimes people say things that are racists, that are racists.
And by saying things that are that are racists are racists.

(01:28:01):
They are racists by by saying things, so these are racist.
In an ideal world, in a world with no anti semitism,
I don't care who lives in is room. There's no

(01:28:24):
anti Americanism, there's no anti whiteness. There's no persecution of
white people going on in most of the world. Maybe
in a maybe in a few places, a little bit
in South Africa, but generally no. So you don't need
you know, if you're really worried about your whiteness, there's
plenty of other countries you can escape too, and you know,

(01:28:45):
create you a little white enclaves or whatever. So I
have no worry about whites being here. No, I have
no problem with skin color being the dominant, dominant in
terms of anything. You know. I would like to see

(01:29:09):
Americans be the majority of people in America. But then
I think anybody should be able to become an American.
All right, guys, that is the news and commentary on
the news for this Thursday, December fourth, And now is

(01:29:31):
the point where we shift to your super chats. We
have a few, we could still use more. And the
more super chats, the more I get to talk about
things you want to talk about. I mean, I'm not
gonna respond to FED anymore, so FED can come in. Yeah,
Israel is a Jewish enclave because Jews are being I'll

(01:29:53):
respond to this, and then I'm stuck. Jews are being
run down, they're being hunted, they're being killed, being discriminated
against all over the world, and Israel there needs to
be a Jewish enclave for them to escape to. And
that's that Israel serves that purpose. Whites are not in
that situation and therefore they don't need an enclave. And

(01:30:13):
if they did, need an enclave. Then America is probably
not the right place for them anyway, because they're almost
a minority already in America. So they, you know, they
should emigrate to places that maybe are more likely to
stay quote white, I don't know, you all go to
Denmark or you know whatever. You know, The reality is

(01:30:36):
America is not Israel. I know that's hard for people
to get. America is not surrounded by countries they want
to destroy it. You know, America is not occupied by
by by a majority people who are discriminated against everywhere
else in the world they go to. America is not Israel.
I mean, it's hard to contemplate that, and you don't.

(01:30:59):
Not every country is the same, and every country is different,
and that's okay for every country to be different. In
an ideal world, it wouldn't matter what your skin color is,
wouldn't matter what your so called racist, and it wouldn't
matter what your religion is. I mean, one could hope
that there would be very few religions anyway. All right,

(01:31:25):
we are going to take super chats. Let me remind
you that the show is funded through the support of
people like you. If you listen, if you watch, even
if you disagree, even if you hate, you are gaining
a value from this show. One way to reciprocate is
go on Patreon Patreon dot com, type in yourn Book

(01:31:46):
Show and become a monthly supporter of the Yourn Book Show.
I'm looking. I think now we only need five to
make till the end of the month new Patreon subscribers
to meet our December thirty first goal. So five and

(01:32:06):
so yeah. Please if you're not yet a supporter of

you actually get the podcast, the podcast with no advertising.
No advertising saves you from all that hassle. And twenty
five dollars you can join the live AMAS by video.

(01:32:28):
Let me see what else? Did I want to say? Yeah,
I'm gonna jump in, jump in here to the super chats.
We'll do we'll we'll remind everybody, all right, Alex, Hi,
you on I work in video games. You often criticize
people who play games in their mother's basement, But do

(01:32:49):
you think the medium can have real autistic value in
reevaluating games as a long term I'm reevaluating games as
a longtime productive career. Oh no, look, I am not
anti computer games. Even if computer games do not have
a a what did you call it? A real autistic value,

(01:33:11):
they have immense entertainment value. They're a lot of fun. Now.
I don't play video games, but I love that people
have video games and can play video games and get
excited about video games and compete on video games. Video
games are great. What I criticize is the people who
make video games the center of their life and give

(01:33:34):
up on the rest of life in order to play
video games. That's what I hate. So, yeah, video games
are great. There's nothing wrong with them. Could they have

(01:33:55):
autistic value maybe? I mean, I don't know, but potentially
they could. Absolutely, But in any case, the fund their entertainment,
so why not engage in it. Yeah. You know, if
you like video games then you enjoy playing them and

(01:34:16):
it's fun to program them, then go ahead and program them.
Go ahead and program them. By the way, alex Media,
if you're looking for a software engineer, my my son
is looking for a job, so let me know. You
can write to me if if if you have any
opportunities for him at your at yourn bookshow dot com.

(01:34:39):
Anybody out there, uh for a I guess a junior
software engineer, but without with quite a bit of experience
now worked at Amazon for a while. Uh not you
have any algorithm? Part one is fascism just socialism with
the worst brand. Are the concept of racial higherarchys or
higher keys in general, less appealing than a egalitarianism to

(01:35:01):
population saturated with Christianity and altruism. Altruism demands a zero
class societal structure, while Nazism and fascism demand altruistic sacrifice.
The essence of the structure they're trying to impose is
opposite of the meeksilli inherit doth so I think you
onto something. Now, remember both demand altruistic sacrifice. Christianity I

(01:35:27):
mean sorry, Communism demands the sacrifice of the able to
the unable. It demands the sacrifice of ability to need.
It demands the sacrifice of success failure. It demands the
sacrifice of the rich to the poor. So both communism

(01:35:48):
and Nazism demand sacrifice. But one of the reasons communism
is so appealing it's because it's the same kind of
sacrifice that Christianity demands. It's the mixill inherit the earth.
As you say, it's hard of a rich man to
you know, to pass through. It's hard if a camera

(01:36:09):
to pastor I of needle than a rich man to
get into heaven. It's the same kind of sacrifice as Christianity.
So communism goes together and socialism go together with Christianity.
Was the kind of sacrifice that Nazism demands is different.
It's still sacrifice, and in that sense it's still Christian,

(01:36:32):
but it's a different kind of sacrifice, more oriented around
other types of hierarchy, hiarchy related to uh for example,
related to race in some forms of fascism, or related
to affinity to a state. Sacrifice to the state again
very similar to the sacrifice of a Christian to the

(01:36:54):
Church or to God. The state just fills in for
the church in God. But it's it's not egalitarian, and
there's definitely a strong appeal of eganitarianism in a Christian culture,
and we live in way too much of a Christian culture.

(01:37:21):
Robert Positive shows for the win, ordinary decent people working hard,
living well, learning, creating, producing isn't news, but it's ninety
seven percent of everything that happens in the world every
day thanks to the Positive Show. Of course, Fetz says,

(01:37:48):
I don't care about Christian's part. But yes, America was
vastly majority white before nineteen sixty five. Yeah, and a
much worse place to live. It's so much richer today
to Loge extent because of all the immigrants that have
come in. As I described earlier, most of wealth created
is being created by immigrants who've come to this country
and made your life as a white person better richer. Yeah. Right.

(01:38:23):
I think the whole replacement, the whole replacement stuff replacement
that people talk about, it's just science fiction. Immigrants don't
come because you know, they're encouraged to replace whites. They
come because they see opportunities. Indians who migrated to this country,
you want to luck out of this country, Fred, That's

(01:38:44):
what you said. Did not come here because somebody advocated
for them to come and to replace whites. They came
here because they saw opportunities, and they came in and
they created wealth that you benefit from. That everybody benefits from,
no matter what just skin color you benefit from the
United States peaked at around nineteen sixty five. I wish

(01:39:04):
you had a time machine it could go back to
nineteen sixty five. I was alive in nineteen sixty five.
You want. You have no concept of how much better
life is today than nineteen sixty five. You've bought into
you've been brainwashed by a bunch of ignorant neanderthal traditionalists

(01:39:28):
who worship the past, but have no concept, no concept
of how much better life is today because they don't
like certain things, like their colored people in the streets.
But in terms of every objective measure, every objective measure

(01:39:49):
of wealth, of success, of quality of life, of stand
of living, of diversity of options, of ability to succeed
in life, life is so much better today than it
was in nineteen sixty five. There are a few realms
in which it was, but the realms that affect the
day to day lives of Americans, in all of those realms,

(01:40:11):
life is better today than it was in nineteen sixty five, Catherine,
And that has been a theme of this show and
today earlier, and it's been a theme of many of
my shows. Yeah, Catherine, why do you hear often that
Iinrand is only for students and younger people? Is it

(01:40:32):
because she tried to make things understandable? Partially? But I
think more than that, because she presented an ideal. She
thought the world was black and white, black and white,
and so it's a good and evil not in so
it's a skin color. She thought there were good guys
and bad guys. She thought there was truth, and that

(01:40:56):
is viewed as simplistic and juvenile and appeals to add
the lessons and doesn't appeal to really sophisticated people. Really
sophisticated people understand that life is gray and there's no
right or wrong, and everything everything is to be. You know,

(01:41:16):
nobody's really good and nobody's really evil, and you can't
never know the truth. And that's why it's ideals, like
capitalism is an ideal. I mean, that is so far
into the way people think. Lincoln for comparison on quality

(01:41:37):
of life, my grandpa bought my dad his first computer
for eighteen hundred dollars almost six thousand dollars inflation adjusted
for sixty four killerbytes of RAM. I paid around four
hundred dollars for lapped Up recently that had sixty four
gigabytes of RAM on Black Friday. Same story with video games,

(01:42:01):
Dad paid one hundred dollars in twenty twenty five dollars,
so for for low quality sixteen bit games, you know
I paid, I pay half for for that four K,
for that four K graphics, sixteen bit video games, I

(01:42:25):
pay half for the four K graphics. Same with television software,
and list goes on and run. Yeah, I mean, all
of those goods a ninety nine percent cheaper today, ninety
nine point nine percent cheaper today if you take into
quant if you take into kant quality. My first computer
was an SC thirty Mac. It was three thousand dollars.
It was a box with a little color screen in it.

(01:42:49):
It had I don't catter, it had, you know, megabytes.
Everything was megabytes. It hard drivers megabytes. I mean, you
can't even compare it to what what you have today. No,
it's kilobytes. Everything was kilobites. There's three thousand dollars, and
what I could write for three thousand dollars today is
much much better than any super cue computer that existed

(01:43:11):
when I bought my first computer Lincoln. Also, it was
really striking visiting my dad's childhood home. He said, it's
much smaller and worse than he remembers, since our house
now is triple the size. Yeah. Yeah, nineteen sixty five,
you should all go to nineteen sixty five. God, the ignorance.

(01:43:34):
But this is the thing. If you listen to Matt Walsh,
if you listen to these guys, they constantly tell you
the lie. They constantly create this mythology and it you know,
they constantly create a mythology and you know, but but

(01:44:00):
this is the mythology Matt Walsh creates, and you buy
into it. Whether he's a tool or not, you buy
into it. It's the Matt Walsh Is and Nick foyantis
Is of the world. It's the Tucker Causon's of the world.
All really from a from a you know, just a
just a factual basis, and am buiga bat basis. Basically morons,

(01:44:23):
and they know nothing, they understand nothing. They're anti American,
every single one of them. They have no concept of
what America is, what America stood for, what the founders
actually said, and what they stood for, what they what
they boards meant. They want some in nineteen sixty five
utopia that never existed, Lincoln. Lincoln says, nineteen sixty five

(01:44:54):
is too modern for Michael Knowles. He wants ninety sixty five.
No want he won a twelve to twenty three hundred
years you know, two undred fifty years later, don't exaggerate
christoph Aside from material wealth, isn't the case that government
regulations and taxes are worse today and people feel trapped?

(01:45:14):
I think I think government regulations are worse and taxes
are worse. Taxes, I'm not sure. The marginal tax right
in nineteen sixty five was much higher, right, marginal the
high marginal tax rates were much higher. Yeah, I mean,
there are many ways in which nineteen sixty five was better,
but they're not the ways in which people are complaining.
If people are complaining about I want to start a business,

(01:45:37):
and in nineteen sixty five was easier for me to
start a business, and today I'd say, yeah, absolutely, Yeah,
let's fix that. If they were saying, you know, I was,
taxes was significantly lower, they were two high and sixty
five they're too higher today. Yeah, I'm all for that absolutely.
You know, if they were if they were saying, what
we want is more economic freedom, and it's not clear

(01:45:59):
by some mentions there's more economic freedom now by some dimensions,
there was no economic freedom of sixty five. Its it's
tricky how to measure that. Right nineteen sixty five, the
government regulated the price of IF airline tickets if you
wanted to fly from I don't know, from Miami to
New York, you paid a price determined by the government,

(01:46:22):
and it was a very high price, much higher than today.
If you wanted to trade stocks, the commission your boke
a god was dictated by the government. In nineteen sixty five,
trucking was completely regulated. Every aspect of transportation was completely
regulated by the government. So in many respects were less
regulated and then nineteen sixty five. So it's tricky to

(01:46:44):
figure this out. Even in those realms, what was better
today or them clock As pessimistic as we all tend
to be, I do see objectives and growing online. I
think it'd be a real player in the next few decades.
I think it will be I hope. So it's going,

(01:47:04):
there's no question, And the number of intellectuals is going.
And that's what makes a difference. That's what makes a difference.
Why does how he been swaying a think faster than light?
Thinks faster than light? Sharing of information is possible. Does
objectivism have objections to the theory of relativity? No, The

(01:47:26):
fact that how he thinks that is not a position
shed by objectivism, and it's not a philosophical position. His
position is a scientific one. He has his reasons. I
have no idea what they are, but it's not a
position and objectivism. Objectivism is the philosophy of iron Man.
Iron Man had no position on the theory of relativity.

(01:47:48):
Objectivism has no opinion on the theory of relativity. That's
not a question of philosophy, it's a question of science.
Objective scientists might have an opinion, and I disagree. Cook
ll be card seen Deep Space nine, highly recommended. I

(01:48:09):
am a cook guy. I really love the first, the
initial Star Trek, but that's partially because I haven't seen
a lot of the latest Star Treks. Also, I did
not see Deep Space nine, although it's come highly recommended
by people. I careful people. I respect their opinions, but
I haven't seen it. I need to get into it

(01:48:30):
at some point. Lincoln, we live much better life than
that of George Washington, one of the richest men in
the colonies, but lots of his teeth, lost all of
his teeth at thirty and died at sixty seven. Absolutely
Lincoln collapsing White birth rate. My dude, Japan is literally

(01:48:52):
starting fertility visas and you can buy abandoned homes under
ten k there. Yep, Rafael Ayran, the corporate presentation went well.
Thanks for your advice. I'm glad it went well. Also
noticed it's my three anniversary as a YBS member. Cheers
to that. Absolutely, cheers Rafael. Thank you Lincoln. I'm suddenly

(01:49:19):
planning on having kids with my corent girlfriend and future wife,
but not until we're both done with our education in
our thirties. Yeah, good for you, John says AIRI YouTube
ice raids versus rule of law. Good good. I agree
with that. I'm glad they did a video of that.

(01:49:42):
Jason one. Washington State is not friendly to vouchers or
charter schools. Al Moses Lake School District is on its
fourth day of being closed due to a strike. The
district lost money in an accounting anomaly, levies didn't pass,

(01:50:02):
and teachers say they want what they used to have
and a cola. The district will go to courts to
push teachers back to work. I'd love to stand with
the signs saying privatize Redine Ran, but i'd be but
it'd be pointless. Well, you never know. If it'd be pointless,

(01:50:23):
people might actually Redine Ran because of it. They might say,
who is this crazy? What's he doing? Maybe there's something
maybe I should go find out. Is there any reasonable
way not to let this crisis go to waste for
capitalist cause? Any thoughts for the school district and teachers union? No,
I mean not really. I don't know how you take

(01:50:46):
advantage of the crisis, other than to say these kind
of things don't happen in private education. Maybe one school's
teachers strike and then you just shift your teachers to
your students to another school. You don't get teacher strikes.
That if everything was so, it's an opportunity to make
the case of privatization, accepting the fact that only a

(01:51:07):
few people will even have an openingir to it. Pi
Gupta Fred's question, so not all his questions are free.
I don't know what that means. Would you tolerate a
non Jewish majority in Israel? I mean again, when anti

(01:51:27):
Semitism doesn't exist? And yes, I don't care about being Jewish.
I don't care about Israel being Jewish or not. The
only reason Israel needs to have a Jewish majority right
now is because there is an existential risks to people
who are perceived to be Jewish by the world. If
if there was a perceived risk physical risk programs against

(01:51:54):
white people, then those people, I mean, you know, those
people should you don't have every right to gang together
to protect themselves. But that's not the case. And if
you can't tell the difference between those two, then you're
just evading. You're not trying, right, You're not trying. So
you can you can take a simplistic say oh, it's no,

(01:52:17):
or you can actually think about what my answer actually
means and what my actually, my actual answer is. It's
not bullshit. There's antisemitism everywhere in the world. Jews are
persecuted everywhere in the world. Even in America it's becoming
more antisemic. Submitted. I would love a world in which
there's no Israel, that Israel is never created, because a

(01:52:42):
world wid Israel was never created is a world where
the Dreyfus trial never happens. It's a world where there's
no massive anti semitism in Europe. It's a world where
Hitler doesn't kill six million Jews. It's a world where
Jews are not persecuted in Era and in Moroacco and
in Yemen and in all these other countries and kicked

(01:53:05):
out it's a better world where Jews just assimilate into
the population. I'm all for that. I have no affinity
to a Jewish state except and this is this is
where people can't think. This is the amazing part is
they they they just can't actually hold an argument, hold

(01:53:27):
hold an actual argument being made, except in a world
in which they're persecuted. They need some way to escape
to have Jews ever done any persecuting? Oh suddenly in
the Old Testament, Yeah, a lot of persecuting. They were,
It was awful, but since then very little, primarily because

(01:53:52):
they've had no political power to do it. So again,
you you're it's all collectivism with you. All you can
think of is this group and that group and that group.
And I don't care. They're bad people who are Jewish.
They're good people who are Jewish. They're bad people who
are white, the good people who are white, the bad
people who are black, the good people who are black,
That bad people who are Indian, The good people are Indian.

(01:54:18):
Tell me about Jewish persecution, you know, the Jews persecuting
who who exactly what if they persecuted? And don't tell
me Palestinians, because that will show you know what you
are of the israelly Palestinian conflict. But you know, did
they persecute the Germans? Did Jews persecute the Germans? They
persecute the English? Did they persecute the Romans, the Greeks?

(01:54:41):
Who did they persecute the Babylonians? Who did they persecute
exactly as a people? Oh, they persecuted ethnic Russians. All right,
wipe this guy out. He is a complete nutcase. He
doesn't know history, he does no facts. He is just

(01:55:04):
another run of the mill anti Semite. During the Bolshevik Revolution,
Jews didn't persecute anybody. Communists persecuted people. Some of those communists,
a minority were Jewish. So what white people persecuted? White

(01:55:26):
people persecuted the majority of Russians. Ethnic Russians were persecuted
by white people because most of the Communists were white.
Oh God, so pathetic. Sypathetic again, you know, brainwashed by

(01:55:49):
people who don't know history, don't know history, and people
who don't know, you know any anything about you know,
their own history, about European history, about Jewish history. And
they come on and they pretend that like they're experts,
they know stuff. They because what because they watch the

(01:56:12):
YouTube video by some racist creep. They've watched you know,
a say, and there's a reason I'm engaging with Fred.
There's a reason because you know, if he comes back up,
probably just block him. Because so many people out there
are like this, So many people out there are convinced
of their own knowledge because they've watched some video by

(01:56:34):
some creep out there, by some white nationalists, by some
white supremacists. And what they do is they can't they
ask you question, you give them an answer. They can't
follow the argument either. They because they don't want to,
not because they're not capable of they're smart enough to

(01:56:55):
follow it. They don't want to. It would actually require
an argument, they actually require following. They don't want to
follow it. They don't want to follow it. I don't
silence opposition. I silence useless people who refuse to think,

(01:57:17):
who refuse to confront evidence when presented with it. I
silence people who just repeat the same thing over and
over again, who have nothing to add to the conversation,
and who are fundamentally disruptive as a consequence. That's who
I silence. I don't silence people who disagree with me.
Lots of people who disagree with me on here. But
if you're not willing to engage with evidence, if you're

(01:57:37):
not willing to engage with facts, if you can't follow
an argument because following the argument would upset your world
view too much, then you're useless to me. Why would
I not block you? You know? What did Rush Limbaugh
used to say about you know, about his audience and
taking questions? Is the only purpose of it is to

(01:57:59):
make him look good? Yeah? I mean I'm with Rush.
I made an argument, you refuse to listen to it,
and that's why you're being removed. All right, Lincoln. If

(01:58:22):
I want an SUV, foward all the way. If I
want a non luxury sedan, I'm going to Yoda. I
have a Lexus Suv. It's a wonderful automobile. So if
you want a big SUV maybe, but even even the
big Lexus Suv is pretty cool, Matt. This administration has

(01:58:42):
made men such as Haig Saith. Yeah, I mean they
took nobody and made him into something. Uh, all right,
that is it for today. Oh we got we got
a question coming in from a vlus. What did I
want to remind you? Yeah? I want to remind you
of Patreon. I want to remind you that December thirty first,

(01:59:06):
we will have a big fundraising event. There'll be the
year end Show. We'll be raising a lot of money.
I think the goal of this year will be twenty
thousand dollars on the show. So if you want, if
you would like to contribute like more than five hundred dollars,
which is the max you can do on YouTube, then

(01:59:29):
you can do it on PayPal and just let me
know that you wanted to go towards. Once you let
me know that you wanted to go towards the year
end show. Lincoln said, I had a super chat on Fuentes.

(01:59:51):
I didn't see it. I'm looking back. I cannot see
the one Fort George Washington. Oh there it is, Okay,
there it is. I don't know what how that I skipped?
I skipped down, all right? A good rule of thumb

(02:00:12):
for your mental health. Never listened to anyone who had
Nick for Intese on this show. Yes that that that
would be a big improvement in people's lives. Avery Lasque says,
how much for your thoughts? On an NBA Ethics Assignment
Professor reflection, I had to do read through. It'd be

(02:00:34):
great content, I promise. So what do you want me
to read? I mean, how long is whatever it is
you want me to read? That would determine how much,
you know I would charge it depended how you know
it's an ethics assignment. So how long is it? You
know it's going to take me five minutes to read,
ten minutes to read. Let me know and I'll tell

(02:00:56):
you how much. All right, guys, I will see you tomorrow.
Don't forget the December thirty first show, two and a
half pages. I don't know one hundred bucks for me
to give you my feedback on that. It's like a song.
I guess. I will see you guys tomorrow. I guess
same time. Matt says. Coleman Hughes had a great video

(02:01:16):
on a fantasy she did. It was a very good
It was a very good Coleman Hughes does good stuff.
I like Coleman Hughes. He's one of the best commentators, podcasters,
whatever you want to call them out there, young intellectuals
out there. He's one of the best non objectives young
intellectuals out there. So check out Coleman Hughes. He's very good.

(02:01:40):
Thank you. Matt all right, guys see tomorrow. Bye.
