  4. Today an Asperger syndrome teenage boy was put under house arrest for transphobia. The world we live in. The Nazis and communists targeted the disabled and mentally ill.

  8. Christ on a bike I'd forgot all about pop will eat itself. I went to see them play at the Riverside up in geordie town back in the early 90's. I'd imagine they'd be full blown leftards if they were starting out today.

  9. yes, mortoth do make a video on your red pill and why not blue pills….the population has been de-sentisized and brainwashed into accepting
    population replacemnet as a VAULE, HUMANITARIAN ETC blah blah.

  11. As an American and nationalist trust me, it was difficult to come to terms with capitalism as the enemy. Most right wing "conservatives" are completely stuck in the capitalism vs socialism or big gov. vs small gov. paradigm. They're unwilling to swallow the difficult reality that Trump (whom i still support in despite of his MANY flaws) is not doing much for his base (whites and christians) and he seems completely sold out to the ZOG machine. Its gonna be a rough 2020

  16. a mild critique about the section around 15 minutes in about Descartes – who's being portrayed here as saying that since our frame of reference for experience is confined within ourselves, that our understanding of Being and Ontology is self-generated. Descartes had a framework for God that was outside of the mind and Cartesian dualism makes separations between the body and soul. Just think it's a bit rough around the edges to take the Cogito as saying Being and meaning are self generated. I may have misunderstood the point but I felt compelled to share that. I would totally agree though that Neo-liberalism and the fake and spiritually dead Yuppieisms have a direct genealogy from some of those Cartesian ideas.

    EDIT: Morgoth's observation about the Cogito is spot on however, you cannot de-world yourself and enter it on your own and declarative terms, which is the most retarded part of liberalism. Spot on.

  21. So glad I found this channel!
    A thought on 'whiteness' and the 'persecuted minorities that suffer in our society': According to them, white people are inherently toxic and racist. Inherent, implying that nothing can be 'done' to fix this. The problem will never go away. By their own logic then, the only rational action is to leave and go live in a non-white society. Refusal to leave white society (and white toxicity) behind indicates either:
    a) Masochism and WILLINGNESS TO SUFFER on the part of said minorities, or
    b) BOLD FACED LYING
    In either case, I think that toxic white people need to offer these 'suffering minorities' a "Societal Divorce on the grounds of Irreconcilable DIfferences". No more whining about whites, no more persecution or racism! No more hate! Go live in peace in a place DEVOID of whiteness.
    Or STFU.

  22. I don’t think Post Modernism and Cultural Marxism are the same thing at all. Cultural Marxism, as a phenomenon, resides inside Post Modernism as a condition. And I would point out that though most Post Modern theorists have been “leftists” what they have revealed is a post-left condition, which the Left are forced to contend with.

    Post Modernism is a historical condition, namely one of confrontation. It is a state in which the promises of modernism (which can be largely defined as liberal, progressive, and Anglo-centric) meet the limits of their possible fulfillment. In other words, Modernism made promises that cannot come to fruition because of hard scientific and political reality, and Post Modernism is the state in which this is realized.

    Cultural Marxism is a form of “Left Reaction,” a strident refusal to accept what many Post Modern theorists did accept either quietly or openly, such as Baudrillard did: the abandonment of emancipatory politics altogether.

    When I use the term “Left Reaction” I mean to say that, in Right Reaction we are talking about the political response to the dismantling of institutions which actually once existed… whereas in Left Reaction we are talking about the political response to the absence of institutions which were promised but never realized.

    I make this point because this historical condition in which we find /ourselves/ certainly does not “belong” to the Left. It is, in many ways, the anti-thesis of Leftist-dominated modernism, a crumbling edifice plastered over in the pixels of hyperreality, a Potemkin Village propped up by an endless funnel of cash poured through a sieve of mass media and social control mechanisms.

    /We/ will determine what the Post Liberal Synthesis looks like. /We/ are the offspring of the failed promises of progressive liberal modernism, and this hellscape of Post Modernism is the first theatre of our Great War.
