How about now?
I had to reset the stream, unfortunately.
How about now?
How about now, is it fixed?
Let me know if it's fixed.
Ten eighty p?
Hold the line, by the way.
Don't be an idiot.
You gotta hold the line.
Better or totally fixed, okay?
Okay, we're good.
We're good then.
Okay.
Wow, guys.
Anyway, I don't know if you guys have noticed I cleaned up my beard a little bit so I don't look as it's not that relevant.
We have important things to talk about.
Wow, Blackpack, what's going on, man?
Way to wow, what a way to start the stream.
Blackpack, thank you so much, brother.
I appreciate you.
Appreciate you a ton.
So, guys, we have some things we need to talk about.
First order of business is I see your guys's efforts to combat the JQ stuff on X, and it's commendable, especially when it comes to the Judeo-Bolshevism stuff.
That's really where it's relevant for us.
But there's some problems.
Thank you so much, Red Saffron.
I appreciate you.
There's wow, red saffron.
Wow, way to go.
There's some things we need to be mindful of.
And I think there's been a little bit of an over-correction.
And I want to introduce you guys to the concept of a bad infinity, where you do the same thing over and over and over again, and the result doesn't change.
The approach you guys have been doing when it comes to JQ, great.
Especially, I love that meme.
Where somebody, I think it was like a groiper, somebody put a Jewish star over Nick Fuentes and then showed it to him.
And he was like, Yeah, well, you know, he might be controlled opposition.
Instantly changed his mind just with a Jewish star.
So that stuff is funny, all right?
I'm not saying that's the problem, but I'm saying that a hyper fixation.
We don't want to like be JQers about the JQ.
If you get what I'm saying, the whole point of this, thank you so much, Terry.
I appreciate you so much.
Wow, what a way to start off.
I want you guys to be mindful of something, and it's basic psychology.
The more attention you give this, the more you fight back against it, the more you just That's w this is not the hill we're here to die on.
All right, we are confident in our position, we are confident in the superiority, the analytical superiority of Marxism.
And when we excessively try to overcorrect, Wallo, what's going on?
Appreciate you so much.
When we try to excessively overcorrect when it comes to JQ stuff, it's not good optics.
It's not good optics.
It's not a good strategy.
And it doesn't work.
That's the most important thing.
It doesn't work.
And I'm going to explain exactly how we make it work.
Because, guys, conspiracy theories about Jewish people is not the primary contradiction.
Midwest Singh, I appreciate you so much, man.
I want you guys to understand something.
Anti-Semitism is not the primary contradiction.
We consider it a weakness, we consider it a defect, but it's not the primary contradiction.
Sleeper cell, wow, what's going on?
What I mean to say by this is that us counter JQing all the time, especially as aggressively as the community has been doing.
Puts us on the back foot, puts us on the defense.
And it's not where we want to be.
Where we want to be right now.
W11, wow!
Holy shit, what a way to start.
We don't want to focus on it because it puts us on the back foot.
It makes us seem like we're in the defensive and we're like pushing back against this rising tide and we're on the defensive.
That's not where we want to be.
We are the nomadic mongols of the internet.
Okay.
What that means is we want to constantly.
Dark Peterson.
Thank you so much.
Appreciate you a lot.
What I mean to say by that.
Is that we want to constantly be on the offensive.
So the point, our biggest concern is not.
Anti-Semitism.
That's not our biggest concern.
We consider it a weakness.
We warn against it because we consider it a mental defect.
We consider it limiting in our ability to actually understand the world properly.
But when all is said and done, the point isn't to just eliminate anti-Semitism.
The point is to more fundamentally offer a positive vision, a positive analysis of the world, and to do that in practice.
To do it in we don't want to get fixated.
In our points of disagreement with right-wingers and die on that hill, we want to focus Alte, wow, with the 10.
Appreciate you so much.
No.
What we want to do is focus on what sets us apart in the positive sense.
Prove indeed why our position is superior in terms of the analysis it's able to yield, in terms of the positions it's able to yield, the most cutting-edge analysis, the most cutting-edge theory, the most cutting-edge consciousness, the most cutting-edge art.
That's how we prove the superiority of our position over the right.
But as long as we constantly obsess and figure, we don't want to die in this hole, thinking we're dying on a hill, but we're really spiraling into a hole actually, and there's no way to get out.
Us having to be on the defensive on this issue is allowing them to win and put us in a position of weakness.
And by the way, the reason it's bad optics is because.
Of course, we oppose anti-Semitism.
I don't even need to say that, okay?
But right now, Jewish people are not oppressed.
Jewish people are not.
Persecuted right now.
They're not they're they're you know, there's no need for to call for a movement to liberate Jewish people from anti-Semitism.
It's ridiculous, okay?
And I'm not saying Jewish people are bad, and I'm not saying they're all ruling class.
I'm just saying anti-Semitism is not
Like it was a hundred years ago.
Okay, it's there's, I don't really see pogrums and stuff happening anymore.
On the contrary, you have an extremely aggressive, extremely powerful, yes, powerful, permeating huge degrees of the power structure in America and in the West of the Zionist ideology.
And the Zionism that's aligned with the hegemony, that's part of the hegemony, right?
We don't like seeing people get canceled for expressing their opinions.
What Candace Owens said about Bolsheviks was uninformed, it was ignorant.
But we don't support Candace Owens getting fired for expressing her opinion differently, especially when it's relevant to the Gaza conflict.
So I really want people to understand the optical significance of the various hills we choose to die on.
Fighting Zionism is much more important right now.
There is a secondary contradiction where we want to dispel errors.
We want to dispel mistakes people are making when it comes to the JQ stuff.
But setting ourselves up in this way
where we're on the defensive rather than the offensive is a disastrous blunder and a disastrous mistake.
And I want the community to understand that.
I want the community to understand that we need to be on the offensive
And we're on the offensive when we are at the vanguard of fighting Zionist hegemony.
Now, what is Zionist hegemony?
Does that mean the hegemony is just Zionist?
No.
But Zionism is part of the hegemony.
So the hegemony is qualitatively Zionist.
Absolutely.
It's important to fight the Zionist hegemony.
It's important to fight the ideology of Zionism.
In concrete terms, not just for humanitarian reasons, because there's a genocide going on in Gaza.
Thank you so much, Paperwin.
I appreciate you so much.
Not only because there's a genocide going on in Gaza, this is the really important thing.
But also because
Well, I don't want to get too philosophical because I know
I use a lot of words, and people are intimidated by these words, but I'll paper win.
Wow, I'm seeing that now.
Thank you so much, brother.
Zionism
is one of the most rapid and aggressive manifestations.
Of what we call bourgeois civilization from the 19th century.
It's one of the last remnants, it's one of the last remnants.
of the fundamentalism of the artifice of the nation state institution,
which stands in the way of civilization states and regional integration and therefore multipolarity.
So Zionism is reactionary not just in the sense of Israel, it's also reactionary in the sense of the international networks connected and headquartered
Uh in Wall Street, the City of London, and Tel Aviv for that matter.
Now these networks are not exclusively Jewish, no one's saying that.
But Zionism is a very important part of the global hegemony.
So the anti-Zionist struggle is very important.
It's an existential struggle.
It's a struggle about the meaning of what a community is.
Is a community just something you create artificially, completely, from scratch?
And artificially create a sense of nationhood based on this bourgeois ideology?
Or is there a fundamental deeper texture of civilization?
that needs to be recognized, which Zionism
seeks to suppress, seeks to exterminate, and so on and so forth.
The Zionist ideology also must be opposed on account of the specific
Vector, it represents
in terms of the development of Western liberal hegemony after World War two.
In the Second World War, you had the Soviet Union, and then on the other hand, you had the Atlanticist forces, Great Britain and the United States.
Zionism was very important.
In narrativizing and responding to the events of World War II in such a way that.
That um
Reinforced the hegemony of the Atlanticist forces.
It was a specific articulation of the events of the persecution of Jews because of Hitler's Germany and Nazism, according to which, and this was used during the Cold War, all kinds of populism, and by the way, in the 30s, they didn't call it populism, they just called it democracy.
The root words are the same: populism, what is this?
I think I believe it's Latin, right?
The root word comes from the people, right?
Democracy, the root word is Greek demos, so it's literally just the same thing, it's just different.
different Greek or Latin picture poison basically.
But
After the after the Cold War
Proletarian populism, in general,
And Stalinism and Communism took the blame for the atrocities of the Nazis.
And the Zionist ideology was basically constructed around this idea
That if you have a proletarian populism, all these national liberation movements going on in the world, you know, the mobilization of masses, the cultural revolution in China, we're going to talk about that in a second, by the way.
Millions and millions of ordinary illiterate, yes, uneducated, yes, peasants being mobilized to form real political power, that was, according to the Zionist ideology, running cover for the liberal hegemony, the same thing as fascism.
The vulgar populism that's targeting the Jewish minority or the minority of educated specialists, glasses wearers, right?
Now
To actually concede this point to the Zionists would be wrong because we know that in Eastern Europe there were not all Jews were professionals or educated people, urbanized educated people.
A lot of them were proletarians working in factories.
A lot of them were small artisans, you know, small business owners.
So it wouldn't be fair to concede to them that point as being true.
But I'm just trying to explain to you that Zionism has been a powerful ideological tool of the liberal hegemony for purposes of anti-communism, to fight communism.
Because more or less communism was blamed for the atrocities of Hitler, in the form of blaming mass politics in general for the crimes of fascism.
And the basic idea became that outside of liberal democracy.
It's just Hitler.
So you have liberal democracy and then you have authoritarianism, which, according to the mind of the bourgeoisie, is just Hitler.
So that's what we were dealing with in the post-war period.
All forms of illiberal societies were dismissed as fascist and Hitlerite because, you know, Hitler was regarded by the bourgeoisie as a kind of strongman.
You know, Stalin is a strong man.
Fidel Castro is a strong man.
Hugo Chavez is a strong man.
So those were all basically thrown into the basket, so to speak, of fascism with the aid of Zionist ideology, which is even going farther to reinforce this point by saying, and you know, the danger of a new Holocaust is going to happen too, because these people are vulgar populists, just like Hitler.
Hitler wasn't that, by the way.
He was a ruling class puppet.
But I'm just telling you, from the mind of the ruling class, that's what it is.
So all I'm trying to say is understand what our priorities need to be right now.
We will fight against the right.
We will fight all forms of anti-communism, including falsehoods about the heroic Bolsheviks.
But
We need to do it most of all in a positive way, not just in a reactive, negative and defensive way, but in a positive way.
We need to assert communism
As a positive alternative, aesthetically, ideologically, as a tool of analysis, as a type of consciousness.
And that's the hard part.
It's easy to just respond to the dumb things right-wingers are saying.
And by the way, we should respond when it concerns communism.
Any traces of anti-communism, whether it's this new string of posts I'm seeing from illiterates about the Cultural Revolution because they watched a new show on Netflix, I'm actually going to talk about that in a second.
or it's the nonsense about the Bolsheviks being Jews or whatever.
Uh we should respond to those things and bring up the threads we did debunking and we should talk we should defend the legacy of Mao and the Cultural Revolution.
But we also need to be on the offensive.
And right now I see guerrillas lacking on that front.
It's hard to be on the offensive.
When you're on the offensive, you actually have to do work.
You have to do a kind of computational work where you don't know what the output is going to be.
But you have to kind of search for an output.
You have to search for a message that works positively.
You don't have it ready at hand.
Communism good, Stalin good, Mao good.
That's all something we have at hand.
But how do we actually make communism a persuasive, positive message?
You need to actually.
You need to actually have a deeper sense of people's intuitions and their consciousness.
You need to do meme magic.
You have to like understand the vibe that it makes sense.
That's not an easy thing to do, but it's what we need to be doing right now.
So I'd I'd like to strongly emphasize that point.
I don't like the direction the community to a certain extent is going in on the InfoWar on X of just constantly obsessing over the responding to the J Q people.
Those people are not going to be convinced with facts and reason.
And if you don't believe me, again, all it took for them to be convinced is like you just put a Jewish star on a photo and that's it.
So clearly there's something going on subconsciously and unconsciously.
And we need to be Lacanian analysts and break that down and understand it in order to counteract it and bypass it.
And it's not going to be done directly by just talking about facts and things of that nature.
So that's an extremely important point I'd like to make.
You know, another thing I'd like to talk about a little bit is the Netflix adaptation of the three-body problem.
I watched the first episode last night and then I just kind of skipped through it after that.
Uh I mean it when I say this.
And I mean this with complete sincerity.
I mean this with complete sincerity.
It was
It was a zero out of ten.
There are no redeeming qualities.
It was so bad, I actually kind of felt a little bit sick in my stomach and wanted to vomit because of how bad it was.
I don't even know where to start talking about how bad Netflix's adaptation of it is.
If you have any interest in watching the three body problem in any capacity, just watch the Tencent version.
And I'm not just saying this because I'm a China shiller or whatever.
I'm saying that from the bottom of my heart.
The Netflix adaptation.
Hamza, what's going on, man?
Thank you so much.
Now, I'm gonna briefly kind of talk about why the Netflix adaptation is so bad.
And the first one, I'll lay my cards on the table: the ideological bias I have.
Their depiction of the Cultural Revolution has excited some very smart and bright, high IQ intellectuals from the right wing who are like, Oh my god, this is so horrific.
This is what the left wants to do in America.
And it's like,
I was actually going to say something really fucked up as a joke, but I know my community won't take it as a joke, so I'm not going to say it.
It's just the writers, the writers chose a bad time.
The David and whatever from Game of Thrones, I have some things to say about them, but I'm not going to say it because no one will be able to take the joke.
But.
You know, I kinda wanna say it.
I'm not gonna.
Anyway
Um
The depiction of the Cultural Revolution and just in general, China in the 1960s was your typical kind of like Cold War-style Orwellian demonization of totalitarianism, which I thought was very cheap.
I thought was overly ideological, and I thought was unrealistic.
That's the most important thing.
It just wasn't convincing that this is actually a thing that was happening or could happen.
Now, if you watch the 10 cent version.
You know, they do depict the harsh, relatively harsh conditions in which the youth had to work and, you know, chopping down trees and the scent-down youth movement.
And they kind of did show that she got caught with the book and she got in trouble for it.
But in the 10-cent version, it's just more realistic.
It's actually like more in tune with how that would have actually played out.
Instead of like this Orwellian, giant dystopian state, it's more like there's just this general communal atmosphere.
Of ideological rigidity.
It's not like, oh, the state is all powerful.
It's not like that.
It's more like it's just a kind of, it's, it's, it's a communal and cultural thing going on.
And it makes sense in the context and at the time.
However, bad and not cool it is that she's being interrogated for having a book.
When you watch the 10 cent version, it's actually convincing, like to put it into context how that could have happened or why that would have played out the way it did.
And it's an accurate depiction of China, more or less, I think, during that time in general.
It's pretty an accurate depiction of China's history.
And I know this because the Cultural Revolution is not idealized in China.
Okay, people don't regard it as a very great time.
You know, officially speaking.
So they don't have a problem depicting some of the errors or mistakes that were made during that.
But the kind of wholesale, you know, horror show, demonization, Orwellian totalitarianism that the three-body problem was depicting, I just found it very childish, very cartoonish, and just frankly ridiculous.
Now, if that was the only problem, I could probably look past it.
I'm going to be honest.
I am an ideological person.
I have ideological biases, but
I'm not an unreasonable person.
I understand we live in America.
I understand this is the kind of stupid ideas that people have in their head about communism.
I I could otherwise overlook it.
But the thing I can't forgive in the show
Most of all is just
One of the things I really liked about the ten cent version of the three body problem is how hardcore science fiction it was.
Emphasis on the science part.
You know, it's it's like going in depth into like mathematical formulas and all these kinds of, you know, electromagnetism and like how radios work and like all these crazy convoluted scientific gadgets and real life like equipment that's used to measure
And a good example of this is that
The famous scene where the main scientist is told to kind of like go and look at the sky flicker.
He doesn't the way he does it is he gets a really expensive piece of equipment that's held by an observatory.
Which kind of just when you when you put put on the equipment, it kind of just shows you frequencies.
It's very very abstract science, right?
And that's how he saw the flickering.
So it was like extremely abstract, complicated, convoluted science and engineering in order to like depict the science fiction, the fictional aspect of like, actually, this is like an extraterrestrial presence.
So the presence, the extraterrestrial presence is never direct.
It's always indirect.
And the horror aspect I thought was so cool was how you actually have to know a lot about.
You know, basics of like modern science to understand why things are going wrong.
On the everyday level, just walking around, like there's nothing extraordinary happening.
It's but when you're when you understand the regularity with which scientists record astronomical events and you know, frequencies and I don't know, radiation and all this kind of stuff, at that level, that's where things are going wrong and things are getting really weird.
So it's really an it's like Timothy Morton's idea of a hyper object, right?
Which is extremely cool and interesting.
And it's very slow burn in the Tencent one.
They really take their time develop.
It was great, you know.
When Wenji is in the observatory, by the way, that's another thing I wanted to talk about.
Like Wenji's time in the observatory, it's also extremely realistic.
It seems like it's like it's very the set pieces are just great.
They're great.
They're so interesting looking, how historical they are, depicting 60s in China, where even in this radio observatory, everyone's wearing the Red Guard outfits and there's red stars and it's like.
It's it's k uh her various struggles to get promoted, to get informed about what's actually going on at Red Coast Base.
It's like um it seems like it's like thematic, it's a it's it's it's good writing, it's good storytelling.
Whereas in the show, um
I don't want to get everywhere at once, but just just bear with me.
Back to that flickering sky thing, right?
Put that on hold for a second.
Where like he has to put on the expensive piece of goggles or whatever to like see the the radio frequencies acting in an irregular manner, which for a scientist is gonna freak them out.
For the average person, it's like who cares, right?
If you're a scientist, though, that's what you're you're realizing something's wrong.
An example of how unsophisticated and vulgar and cheap the Netflix adaptation is.
The scientist, and I'll get to that in a second, the equivalent main character, just goes outside in the middle of like
In the middle of like a college campus, just like walks outside with no equipment and just looks at the sky with the naked eye and
The stars just flicker.
Like, yeah, like a supernatural event, basically.
And I just kind of that just really is the that's not the only way in which that translation is like totally botched and vulgarized and made it look stupid.
But like, that's just like the epitome of what the Netflix adaptation is compared to the Tencent show.
Okay, now there's another thing I want to talk about, and I'm going to kind of go into the quartering territory here.
Actually, I did not like that they replaced the main character with a woman.
and a pretty woman at that.
Now in the Tencent version, the main character is a guy who looks like your average scientist.
Wears glasses, not particularly handsome, not particularly charismatic,
But he's such a compelling and good character precisely because he does the job of like being a scientist who's like losing his mind and like trying to figure out what the hell is going on in the way that you would expect like you know an egghead scientist to.
In the show they like sh some like supermodel woman
They replaced him with some like extremely pretty woman.
I don't know why they did that.
I don't even think it should be a woman in in the first place because I think there's something very
Male about that character, like the anxiety he has, the logo-centric anxiety that he has, of like you know, physics breaking down and nothing is making sense, that level of paranoia and all that kind of stuff.
I think there's something very male about that, that a woman you just can't replicate it in that.
But even if you were going to, why would you choose like an extremely attractive, pretty woman to do it?
It just looks really stupid, and it felt like it was an insult to our intelligence.
So that's another thing I wanted to complain about.
Finally, the show went through the path of
Eight episodes, about an hour each, and the whole book was covered, and like half of the second book.
Which I'm not necessarily against in principle.
I understand we don't all have a lot of time.
The Tencent version, admittedly, was very long, though I appreciated it.
I wouldn't have minded that path if they would have made it much more spectacular at the level of sci-fi.
If you want dumbed-down sci-fi and you don't want to do the slow-burn, sophisticated science fiction of the Tencent show.
Then give us spectacular sci-fi.
Show us these aliens.
Show us their alien world.
If you're going to deviate from the books so much, which again, in principle, I'm not even necessarily against, but make it a spectacular blockbuster piece of sci-fi.
And I think you could do that.
I think the world of Trisolaris and the world of the three-body problem is extremely interesting.
The idea of.
The Dark Forest is an extremely interesting sci-fi concept.
If you want to Americanize that or make it Hollywood style and just kind of vulgarize it, make a spectacular sci-fi series based in that world, in that setting, like by all means.
You know, you have some barren bones elements to work with that I think would work.
You have, what is it called?
The society of, I don't even know what it's called.
The Trisolaris Society, this science, whatever it's called.
this cult that forms on earth of people who want to aid the aliens.
Like you have a lot of elements to make it work, right?
But what what I find insufferable about these Game of Thrones writers is that
They didn't make it spectacular sci-fi because 90% of it is just some fat guy and some like 9 out of 10.
Um
Female just like talking by a campfire or like eating dinner together, talking about nothing.
It was really infuriating.
It's just they're like farting around pretty much the whole time.
Even when they're showing the game, the VR game, it's just like was so much less.
Compelling and even visually less impressive than the Tencent version.
I'm not just saying this as a China shill who's biased toward China.
Like, do not watch the Netflix version.
Okay, it's it's not good.
There's no reason to it has no redeeming qualities unless you're like some coomer.
Or what do they call it now, Gooner?
you're gonna be gooning or something and you wanna see some pretty lady
I guess that's the only upside of it.
I I still wouldn't recommend it 'cause it's not worth all that, to be honest, but
I I don't really see any redeeming qualities to the Netflix version.
I just don't
Uh regarding the Game of Thrones writers, I really, really think
And I'm not joking when I say this.
I really think they belong in a gulag.
And I mean it.
You think I'm joking right now, but I'm not.
If I had any kind of power, I would throw them in a jail cell, possibly for life, or deport them.
They are so hideous and disgusting with their writing.
Game of Thrones was a bad show, by the way.
wasn't good.
But even if we put that aside, they're pre these pretentious idiots, I could just see them telling themselves, like, oh, we really decided to, like, go for, like, actually, like, having it be only eight hours, and you know, like the the every decision, every exercise of discretion.
Every discretion they exercised, every decision they made for that show is just so.
wrong and bad that I actually think they deserve to go to jail for it.
And I I sincerely and seriously stand by that.
So final verdict is a zero out of ten, absolute zero out of ten.
And I want to spit in the face of the writers
Absolutely disgusting.
It's not even just like bad, it's actually disgusting.
So, that aside, all right, I wanted to get that out of the way.
I think the the the Cultural Revolution discourse, to briefly talk about that, and then we're gonna get to the Russia stuff, so don't worry.
But I find it interesting that all these like conservatives are like, Oh, this is what woke people are trying to do in America when they're like
Again, I'm not here to just like flaunt how much more educated than I am than them, but
It's just funny when you compare the context.
The Cultural Revolution was more or less a spontaneous grassroots event that sought to challenge the hegemonic institutions in China, the institutions of education, the institutions of the party.
It was a revolt against, in many ways, the leadership of the Communist Party, at least at the lower level.
So the cultural revolution in China has a lot more in common with what MAGA is doing to America's institutions now, challenging Doctor Fauci and whatnot.
The idea that it's like somehow an equivalent to the the woke stuff is just an institutional top-down thing.
It's not a grassroots thing.
So I just the comparison's really stupid.
But
It reminded me, and I want someone to actually correct me if I'm wrong.
There is a scene in the three-body problem Netflix adaptation that I found really stupid, and I want someone to fact-check me if this is actually in the book or the Tencent version, because I forgot.
But when Wenji and her friend are like, hey, we want to send a beam to the sun.
Ken Trezy, thank you so much.
They were like, we want to send a beam to the sun, a radio frequency signal, something like that, so it can be amplified.
And then the radio guy is like, no, because do you understand the political symbolism?
Uh because Mao is the red sun and it's like shooting Mao.
And that's why they weren't allowed to do it.
Now, I don't remember that being in the 10 cent version.
I don't know if that was in the books.
I found that extremely ridiculous and stupid.
Does anyone remember if that's in the book?
Okay, well, it's really stupid.
I am sorry to say.
He said it as an off handed comment and did not mention Mao.
Yeah, I don't I don't know.
It's like really I don't know if that was in the Tencent I don't remember that in the Tencent version if it was there which just if even if it was which just goes to show like the execution of that dialogue in the Netflix series was so ridiculously stupid and embarrassed embarrassing watching it that someone wrote this down and thought it was like good.
That's another thing I wanted to get off my chest of how like really stupid
really stupid it was in the Netflix version.
Um we're done with the three body problem.
We're also done talking about the Cultural Revolution.
And we're going to talk about what happened in Russia.
Now, I don't know if you saw, but I did make an appearance on RT to briefly give my preliminary thoughts as more information is coming out.
It seems clear that we know the following facts.
Fact number one, they were from Tajikistan, apparently, and they were from Muslim backgrounds.
Fact number two,
They were hired on the internet, I think paid the equivalent of $5,000, which is incredible, to carry out these attacks.
Fact number three, this is where it
gets a little interesting, I guess.
The US knew about this, the US Embassy knew about it.
I want to address a lot of the stupid arguments I've been getting for pointing this fact out.
So, if you don't know this, on March 7th, the U.S.
Embassy basically said that within 48 hours,
Keep that in mind.
Within 48 hours, we have reports of a possible attack on some kind of crowded venue, theaters or what.
On the dot, they were talking about it, right?
The responses I got for pointing that out were really crazy, which just kind of proves to me that they weren't authentic or genuine responses, but probably Fed AstroTurfed.
So, one of the responses I got was: no, no, no, that was just a warning issued in response to the FSB foiling an attack on a synagogue, which happened the same day.
No, it's not, because why did they say within 48 hours in a crowded venue?
They didn't say avoid synagogues.
So, it was too specific.
So, first of all, that's not true.
Secondly, why simultaneously do you also say, well, that, oh, no, they only said that because the U.S.
has the most advanced intelligence in the world.
Of course, that's how they knew, right?
It's U.S.
intelligence.
It's the best in the world.
Well, which one is it?
Is it U.S.
intelligence picking this up, or were they just reacting to something that happened the same day in Russia?
Which one is it?
Okay, so.
You know, get out of here with that nonsense.
You're just contradicting yourself, twisting yourself into a pretzel.
And I think the reason it's significant to point out the foreknowledge.
is because the if you read the warning by the embassy, it kind of reads like a threat.
Like it wasn't specific enough to the point.
I mean, were they feeding information to the FSB to foil the attacks?
We don't know.
We don't know.
I mean, I've heard a theory that the FSB between then and what happened was.
Attacking various ISIS strongholds and doing a lot of work, but were blindsided by how just random people were hired to do it, just like nobodies, right?
That they couldn't have scoped out beforehand.
I don't know.
Also, I find it sus, the ISIS thing.
It's just there's a lot of.
There's a lack of clarity as to whether ISIS even did this, or this is going to blow your mind, whether ISIS even exists anymore.
Does it?
I don't know.
Think about it.
What is ISIS?
Thank you so much, Slump Man Wound.
If i they c they're saying well ISIS took responsibility for it.
Well, so you're saying like on some Telegram channels, some guys took responsibility for it.
Well, is there proof that they were connected to it or that they did it?
We have none.
There's also the mysterious fact that, yes, this is another thing I got community noted on.
And by the way, we shot that shit down, so pat yourselves on the back.
That's a good job that you did that.
Um they made their way
Sorry for swearing.
Excuse my French.
The terrorists were trying to make their way to the Ukrainian border before having gotten apprehended.
Now, CNN is trying to claim that it was the Belarusian border because it was also close to Belarus.
But if you look at the escape route, it's a direct line from Moscow to the border with Ukraine.
Not to Belarus.
It's a direct line.
Belarus is another line, okay?
So yeah, it was near the Belarusian border, but closer to the Ukrainian border, okay?
And the route they were on was headed towards Ukraine.
So they were trying to make a go for Ukraine.
Now
If that were not enough to convince me of some kind of Ukrainian involvement, the final nail in the coffin to me is Russia's response that it's gearing up for right now.
Russia is preparing for an unprecedented bombing campaign in Ukraine in revenge for the attacks.
So, if that doesn't prove that, according to the Russian authorities, they have reason to believe Ukraine was involved, I don't know what does.
I've also heard people ask the question, Grandma Americana, what's going on?
I've heard people basically ask the question more or less like, well, why would the US and Ukraine do this?
And if if they did do this, why would the US issue a warning about it, right?
Well, it's called first of all, it's called plausible deniability.
If the US wants to carry a terrorist attack, they could just be like, Yeah, well, we picked up some information that this may be happening.
Whoopsies, but if it does, it has nothing to do with us.
So that's the kind of vibe it's being interpreted as.
You know, we're not saying that the U.S.
is directly announcing that they're going to do it.
It's more like, oh, well, if this happens, whoopsie, we don't know who did it, but they do.
The other thing is that I think it's a false assumption.
That it's necessarily true that this was done
On the orders of the authority of the so-called Kiev regime, Ukrainian government, or the United States.
We know that in the Ukrainian military, the neo-Nazis are in control, not Zelensky.
Zelensky is a Patsy.
He doesn't control anything.
Zelensky tried to go to Donbass.
before the SMO to like get these people under control and he couldn't.
So it is it is it is m it is easily possible that these are ele extremist elements fighting on behalf of Ukraine that did this.
And that the US may have known about it, Ukraine may have known about it.
They they can't control these people.
So they just let 'em do it.
Can't stop them.
What are you gonna do?
Right?
And people are like, well, what's the motive?
Well, the motive is: one, these are insane extremists.
Two, they're getting desperate.
Russia's recent victories and I need you need to understand the context, okay?
I was in Moscow.
W a week or two weeks before this happened, right?
A month before this happened, something like that.
Okay, the atmosphere in Moscow is very chill.
You don't, it doesn't seem like Russia's at war.
Moscow is like totally normal.
It's just like people are going out of their lives.
You couldn't even tell Russia was at war.
It's just totally normal, like, there's nothing life is going on as usual.
It's very like chill, okay.
And
As a final act of desperation, or one of the final acts of desperation, because they're losing so much, the idea is like, okay, well, we're just going to engage in.
Thank you so much, Blackpack.
Two days after the first State Department warning, Russia arrested some ISIS guy.
Yeah, it could be.
Sounds like a misdirection from the deep state to me.
Could be.
Could be misdirection.
Thank you so much, Swap.
Appreciate you a lot.
Um, but I think people need to appreciate that, uh.
Sorry.
think people need to appreciate that um
Let me fix this.
People need to appreciate that when you're desperate
You know, you're going to go through your head.
You're going to have to say, you know, maybe what I should be doing right now.
is causing terrorism and chaos and panic and fear in Moscow and Russia really hit them, right?
It's the last thing you can really do terrorism, like more or less, just cause panic and fear on a wide scale, to to maybe maybe in hopes of spreading some kind of demoralization and dissatisfaction with the military operation.
And plus, just plain revenge out of anti-Russian hatred.
People need to understand what motivates the Ukrainian extremists is not, oh, we just wanna we're like the blue guys from Avatar.
No, what motivates them is a genocidal exterminationist hatred of Russians.
And yes, revenge is a good enough motivation for these people.
The precedent also is there for terrorism in the Donbass on multiple o occasions, okay?
They've done it in the Donbass for ten years.
They've done it on Russian soil with the murder of Daria.
And the murder of uh the that blogger in St.
Petersburg, Tatarsky.
So the precedent is there.
These guys are psychopaths.
And yeah, they are like that.
You know, if you're asking what motivation would Ukraine have to do this, ask what motivation ISIS would have to do it.
These are not rational people.
Okay?
The assumption that they're rational, I think, is a big mistake.
Trevaly, thank you so much.
I accidentally stumbled across footage coming directly from the IS media affiliate of themselves doing the massacre, but that still doesn't rule out Ukrainian involvement.
IS is a lump and gang.
Yeah, that's another thing.
Like, what is IIS?
I don't think it's a really centralized organization at this point.
And I think they mysteriously tend to show up.
You know, causing wrecking havoc and committing atrocities against the foreign adversaries of the United States.
So.
You know, what is ISIS?
ISIS just seems like it's a name, it's a cover.
You know, it doesn't really seem like this is a real organization that has independent goals, that operates independently.
That may have been true in Iraq and Syria.
Once ISIL was pretty much totally defeated,
All these other versions of ISIS, that kind of just seems to me like a cover for plausible deniability of U.S.
State Department sanctioned terrorism.
Thank you so much, MIG.
I appreciate you a lot.
So that's more or less what we have going on in Russia.
And we're going to continue to receive updates.
And remember, we shouldn't jump too forward in our assumptions because ultimately it's the Russian government, the Russian authorities are investigating and may have already found the deeper culprits behind this attack.
But we need to basically make sure
Thank you so much, Estrella Stani.
I appreciate you so much.
What we need to do is basically make sure that we raise awareness of the various red flags and not in a good way surrounding the events
And I really did get death threats in my DMs from weird anonymous accounts saying, here's a few of them I got.
Don't think it wouldn't be easy.
For you.
This weekend, this weekend.
Something like that, for us to find you this weekend.
You know, I get other death threats from a huge Ukraine account who's like, You'll be seeing our intelligence services very soon.
What's that guy's name?
Spaghetti Faggot.
Sorry for swearing.
Holy shit.
I swore again.
Excuse my French.
Uh my bad, my bad.
I'm trying not to swear, you slurs.
What's that guy's name?
The NAFO guy, Spaghetti Something.
Well, he tried to threaten me.
Um good luck.
If I ever saw that guy in person, I would just slap him in the face so hard he would lose a tooth.
And I would I will do that if I ever see him.
And, you know, that's a joke, if that gets me in trouble to say, but interpret that how you will.
Anyway.
Yeah, I've I've I've gotten to a point where
Not only me, but I think we should all
Block NAFO.
I block every NAFO pro-Ukrainian account I see.
If you have a Ukraine flag, I block you.
I don't care.
Like, I block you.
I block all of them.
And then they say, oh, well, you're a coward, Haas.
Why do you block us?
And you know, I don't want to talk smack over the internet.
But that's exactly the problem.
Thank you so much, Master Stani.
I don't like talking smack over the internet.
I block 99% of the people that I block, I block them because.
What needs to happen to you can't be done over the internet.
Thank you so much, Yeet, for the for the for the
For the trash talking you're doing and all this big talk you're doing, it's like at this point, I'm kind of done seeing you on the internet.
Uh, bring that energy to me to my face.
And yeah, I'm gonna be an internet tough guy and say that, but it's like at a certain point, I just like I don't this trash talking of these guys on the internet behind their keyboard.
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not gonna entertain it, all right?
Because I know for a fact, if I see any of these disabled NAFO people in person, they're gonna be quivering and very nervous.
And if they're not quivering and if they're not nervous and they're feeling, you know, bold, I don't know what to tell you.
You know, nothing, they're gonna put me in a self-defense situation where their teeth are gonna be on a curb and my foot is gonna be.
stomping somewhere.
Anyway,
Don't know what to say.
Okay.
I don't need to entertain it.
I don't need to entertain trash talking on the internet anymore.
In the beginning, it was entertaining.
In the beginning, it was fun, especially when it was in VC.
At this point, I just block.
I'll just block you.
I don't need to hear it.
Um
You know, it's like, what are you going to do?
Nothing.
You know, keep that energy.
You can't keep that energy offline.
You're getting blocked.
That's how it is.
And by the way, I'm a very public person.
I don't hide who I am.
I don't hide in the shadows.
I'm very public.
Catch me around.
I walk around.
I'm around.
Especially in the summer, but even in the winter.
I'm here.
I'm out and about.
Thank you so much, brutal Stalinists.
You know, I've been out and about straight up.
And I'm telling you that because not a single person, not a single person.
has ever come at me with any negative energy at all.
Not a single person.
Even when I met those Destiny Orbiters at TwitchCon, they were when I when they first saw me, they were trying to be friends with me.
I'm the one who uh kept that same energy.
But I'm not different, all right?
That's all I'm trying to say.
I'm not trying to toot my own horn.
I'm just trying to say I don't hide.
I'm not hiding from anyone.
I'm out and about.
You know, keep that energy.
You know, because if you say the things you've been saying online, you're going to get slapped in the face.
You're going to get smacked up.
You're gonna get smacked up, all right?
Anyway, uh, I don't need a trash talk.
I don't need to say any of this.
I'm above that.
I'm wearing a suit.
I'm very professional.
It's okay.
Anyway, um.
I have some important announcements to make as well.
Jackson and I are going to be holding an event here in Michigan six to eight weeks from now.
So mark your calendars.
Six to eight weeks from now within that time frame, give or take.
It's going to be in Michigan.
It's going to be in Metro Detroit.
I don't know how much of you are going to be able to attend that.
I don't want you to, you know, go bankrupt buying plane tickets.
Or I don't want it to be too much of an expense on your part.
But if it's feasible for you, if it's within your means, I'd like you to show up.
I'd like the gorillas to show out and
come because uh
You know, and be normal.
That's our slogan.
But that's something that's going to be happening.
And it's not going to be the organization we're launching.
We're not going to be launching the organization at that point.
We're going to be launching something else related to the organization, but very relevant to it.
And it's going to be very important.
And that's something we're going to be doing.
Forward to six weeks, sorry, six to eight weeks from now, not four to six, six to eight weeks, all right.
And an exact date, we're gonna have it locked down as soon as we book the venue, so don't worry about that.
But we will release the exact date pretty soon.
We're working on it and stay posted, okay?
A lot of interesting things, like I said, are gonna be happening this year.
And it kind of sucks a lot because
It kind of sucks a lot because this is also an election year and I
Don't care about the election.
I I don't care.
I mean, I only care about it within the context of an of the American Civil War, I guess, but w it's like I have there's more important things going on than the US election.
That's all I'm trying to say.
Okay, it's not that important.
Yeah, it's gonna be Biden versus Trump.
And if it's not that big whoop, it's gonna be some surprise.
Who cares?
Right?
Who cares?
No, you don't have to suit up, okay?
You don't have to suit up.
It's not that s you know.
You can you can just not dress in a ridiculous manner.
Um.
So y so yeah, I mean, if it's Nikki Haley running for office, this I don't I don't I don't even know why I have to pay attention.
I mean, yeah, the elections are rigged, you know, I think we're kind of
I know the election matters.
It does matter.
It's just, we are not going to do organizing in relation to the election.
That's what I'm trying to say.
We're not.
Oh, yeah, we should canvass to vote.
You know, I don't know why organizations feel the need to respond to elections every time they happen.
Like, okay, either A, they're going to do canvassing for the Democrats, or B, we need to spread agitprop about how we need to oppose both bourgeois parties.
You know, don't vote for the Democrats or the Republicans, vote for my party.
And it's like.
You know, maybe instead of f Thank you so much, Juzan.
Yeah.
Um
That's true.
Uh but uh what I'm trying to say is uh you know
When it comes to election years, it's like
these these are not as big as you think, in terms of what their actual impact on politics.
And whether it's an election year or not, I think what organizations should be focusing on the most
Is building hegemony, building their own institutions, building their own organizations which do things tangibly for people.
I'm not just talking about charity.
But organize people in ways that the bourgeois hegemony is not capable of doing.
And in the information age, it's really hard to understand how that works because it's not canvassing and knocking on doors to get people to vote.
That might be part of it if you're fielding a candidate yourself.
But it really comes down to understanding what you have to offer that no one else does.
That's kind of just like economics.
If you want to be an organization, what do you offer that no one else offers?
Start there.
I'm not talking about your policy prescriptions either.
I'm talking about the way in which you're organizing people's lives, the way you're making sense of their lives.
Like, what are you offering that no one else is?
You know, one of the ways socialist organizations used to organize people is like they'd have clubs.
You know, they'd have different kinds of recreational clubs and activities.
And they'd have just things like that.
You know, like you're offering a higher form of socialization.
You're offering a higher form of community.
I'm not saying that's the first and most urgent task of a party, but I'm saying you need to think about things like that if you want to actually have a political presence.
And responding to the election, it's just tiring at all these elections every year.
It's just
Not exactly the move, okay?
It's not exactly the move.
The the most important thing is building close ties and contact with the workers.
With the working class, that's what's important.
But but nobody does that.
Everyone just kinda shouts at them.
I don't know if I should even respond to this.
Apparently, there's a new Trotskyite organization.
in New York or something.
And
I just don't feel the need to respond to it because it's like they're Trotskyists.
Being a Trotskyist is as remote from anything we're doing as, like, if you're a Scientologist.
It's like, okay, you might use some of the same symbolism, but you're not a competitor.
You're not a legitimate competitor to us.
You're not like.
You're not even using our same brand, really.
I don't really care about Trotskyites.
They're not.
They don't live in my world.
You know, I don't know.
Like, oh, well, they're calling themselves communists.
It's like, oh.
Well, Hitler called himself a socialist.
It doesn't mean anything to me.
Another thing I wanted to say is.
On that note
Give me the ham sec.
Give me the ham sec.
Uh give me a sec.
What was I just gonna say?
What was I just gonna say?
Ah, okay, I remember.
I actually remember.
Um you know
I was talking about the other day in our X Space the whole thing about Bolsheviks and the word Bolshevism.
Like, a lot of people they're like, What are who were the Bolsheviks?
What were they?
And it's like you know what I feel like a simple response could be?
You know, to dispel the idea that there's like some kind of like ethnic interest behind the Bolsheviks, the Jews or whatever.
It's like, I feel like instead of just we shouldn't even mention Jews, first of all, like it's not relevant, right?
I think the best response should be Bolsheviks were motivated by drumroll ideology.
It's not exactly true because Marxism isn't an ideology, but I feel like people will get it when you say that.
No, the motivation was an ideology.
It was an idea.
Because it's so powerful when you think about it in those terms.
Because I remember what Stalin said.
He said the Bolsheviks are like a it's so cool.
It's so f based, how he described them.
He said he made he compared the Bolsheviks to a religious military order, like knights.
Like a knight, like an order of knights, like a religious military order, like the Hashashin.
Which is so true.
It's like this militant order
based on belief ultimately, based on the belief in something, right?
And it's kinda like Dugan's
Phrase of like the Knights Templar of the proletariat, but like that's kind of what the Bolsheviks were.
And that's just, I feel like it's just a simple way of putting it.
Like, all the mystery kind of gets honed in when you put it that way.
It's, yes, there's a mystique to it because these are like actual Templars.
Like, these are like, these are like militants of the faith.
And people are like, well, what faith is that exactly?
And that's exactly where that's what I mean by a positive consciousness and a positive response.
Because it's like, because here's the difference: because Bolsheviks or Marxists actually did believe in absolute knowledge, they believed in the absolute, they believed in absolute truth, they believed this is the truth of the world, this is the truth of the universe.
The dialectical and materialist outlook is the fundamental truth of being.
The history of class struggle is the totality of human history.
It's like a very powerful, all-encompassing vision and form of belief that's incomprehensible from liberal consciousness, which is why fascists.
Misconstrue what Bolshevism is, but Bolshevism is a faith.
It's a form of faith.
I'm not going to call it a religion, but it's a form of faith.
It's a militant order of faith, you know?
And that's really what it is.
It's like.
It's like, yeah, the Bolsheviks were these like ascetic
religious militants in a way.
You know, and what religion is that exactly?
It's like it's the religion of the prophets in actuality.
But Marxism, more generally, was like this all-encompassing outlook that spared no room for agnosticism and no room for ambiguity.
It was like.
This is the truth.
We're here for it.
We're going to die for it.
We're going to fight for it.
We're going to dedicate our entire lives to the cause of the proletariat.
And it was a real faith that they held, you know.
And I think that, as a motivation, is more.
Is more um
how would I put it?
It's it's more uh comprehensible to people.
Than us quipping about the details of the ethnic composition, which is a dead-end argument because we can show them as much proof as we want and they're not going to listen to it.
So you should just say the actual truth.
It was a militant religious order, you know, pretty much.
What Stalin said.
And that's so cool.
Like, that's what the Bolsheviks were.
And
You think about the way Lenin was buried.
You know, they didn't bury him in some kind of like scientistic
You know, secular Bolshevism is not secularism.
The way they buried him was they modeled his tomb based on the tomb of Cyrus the Great.
You know.
This kind of connection to the
Zorastrian
Universal religion, fire, you know, and I personally think.
I don't know if this is an official Muslim view, but in my understanding of Islam, because I've heard, and this is the official Iranian position, Zoraster was a prophet of God in Islam.
So it's part, it's an official canon.
Zoroastrianism is our people of the book, right?
Zoroastrian, if I'm pronouncing him correct, was a prophet of God.
And I believe that.
So so it's part of Islam, basically, you know?
I'm not sure if it's the similar position is held in Judaism or Christianity, but I believe it.
I believe it's the truth, you know?
That that it's part of the the holy the great religions, you know.
Anyway, um
That's basically the vibe that we're on.
It's so interesting because
Uh we we basically are
Actual true believers.
I don't think anyone else is a true believer.
We are true believers.
You know, everyone else.
Believes in the authority of these various religions, not because they believe in the religion, but because they believe in the authority.
That the religion is claimed in the name, that claims the religion, name of the religion, right?
Meanwhile, we're here.
with very little authority to go off of and we totally claim it, you know?
So
Yeah, Lennon's tomb is our pilgrim Well
It's wrong to put it that way, but it's the truth.
I'm going to be honest.
Full disclosure: I consider myself a Muslim.
I'm not lying when I say that.
I'm not lying when I say I consider myself a Muslim.
But
For me personally, there's there's more importance in visiting
Lenin's tomb
Then there is the holy sites of Islam.
For me personally,
I understand if you disagree and you can't get on board with that, but that is how I feel.
That's how I feel.
I I especially feel that way when I look at what Saudi Arabia has done to Mecca.
I look at this clock tower they've built and I'm like
Really seems like that place is under oc occupation.
You know, Mecca needs to be restored.
And then then then I can consider it just as important as Lennon's tomb.
But for now, I just sorry.
Have me burned in hell, I don't care.
Have me burn in hell.
Um.
That's how I feel, you know?
And the the another thing di I I didn't I didn't lay flowers at Stalin's grave because I didn't know what the protocol was, if that's allowed, if it would be considered if I'm allowed to do that, I'm
I I did visit his grave and I wanted to lay flowers at it, but
It would be kind of awkward to ask the guards if I could do that.
I think they would be a little confused.
And, um
It's such a shame because I think a few days
Yes, a few days after I left, there was an official ceremony led by the Communist Party to lay flowers at Stalin's grave.
They had a bunch of flowers, they gave them out.
Everyone laid flowers at Stalin's grave together.
I would have loved to do that.
I just, unfortunately, my flight left.
My visa expired two days before that happened.
So I had to leave.
But I did visit his grave.
I wanted to lay flowers at it.
I also didn't want, you know, the way it is, is that everything is so pristine.
There's such a sacred aura around everything.
around Lenin's mausoleum that
I didn't even know if I would be allowed to do that, you know, because who am I to leave a flower is like how I was thinking of it.
Like, can I actually do this or would it be considered littering?
Are the flowers that are there only laid by people who have official positions of importance or prominence in like a ceremonial context?
Basically, it's like I was confused about the funerary rites surrounding it.
Like, those are not things you want to mess with.
You know, funerary rites are very important.
How you treat graves, the protocol.
I didn't know what that was.
And I didn't have anyone there to teach me or tell me what I was supposed to do.
But I the important thing is, I treated Stalin's grave and Lenin's tomb.
With the exact amount of respect and reverence that I would for one of the world's great religions, including my own religion, which is Islam.
So I think that's the important thing.
So you don't want to mess up when it comes to things like that.
You don't want to do something that's not.
That's not allowed or
or uh considered out of the ordinary.
But it is a kind of a regret that I didn't do it if I was allowed to do it and I will be back in Moscow.
So.
There's that.
I will be back in Moscow.
Um
Why do I believe in Islam over Christianity?
You know, um
I think in America I would like Islam to be represented as just a sect of Christianity actually.
There's so many sects of Christianity here, Mormonism, all this Islam may as well just be a sect of Christianity in America.
Like that's how it should be branded, in my opinion.
Because you need to level with people's understanding and where they're at.
It's is according to them, that's what it would be.
You could say, Oh, well, it's not that and it's like, Well, how are you gonna teach Islam to non-Muslims in America?
You're not gonna do it by telling them that this this this religion has no continuity with your religion at all and it that's not true.
Islam conceives itself as a in continuity with Christianity, so
I feel like I also feel like a big mistake that Islam made historically.
Is that it underappreciated the role, the historical role of Christianity, which had not been fully exhausted?
I do believe Islam is the last religion, but I think
Islam historically was too quick to assume that the world historical role of Christianity was was finished, which it wasn't.
And that's very important.
to always bear in mind, like
Christianity is not done with having relevance in the world.
Even if Islam is the last religion, which it is in my opinion, or in my according to my faith.
But I think I'll tell you why I believe in Islam over Christianity on a personal level.
If I'm allowed to do that, I try not to talk about these kinds of topics because I don't want to be divisive.
I don't want to be sectarian.
HDG, thank you so much.
And I don't want to give the impression, I don't want to weaponize my authority as a thought leader and as a guide to you.
To assert the dominance of one religion or the other.
So if you respect me and you listen to the things that I say,
I don't want
I don't want that position I have to be weaponized in a way where, like, I pressure you to abandon your religion and adopt mine.
So, full discretion.
I could be wrong.
There's a lot of things.
I think Islam is lacking when it comes to Christianity that I see.
I'm not that educated, all right?
I'm not, I'm not a god, I'm not like a prophet, I'm not somebody you should.
You should learn your religion from, but I'll just tell you my perspective personally, and that's it, right?
Not saying this is the absolute truth, I'm just saying this is how I see it.
Um.
The reason is because to me, I really like this idea in Islam of the seal of the prophets.
I like this idea that the message has to be completed before the end times.
The message must be completed.
The word must be completed, totally completed, before the end times, in the form of this book, in the form of this.
This symptom of meaning, the holy Quran, right?
Which
Which I and I I think that
renders concrete the entire story of the great religions through the book.
And people think that's the text, that's the dead letter, and it's not.
The Quran is a
Is a work of poetry.
It's a work of
Uh, it's not like a direct statement of fact, it's not a direct enunciation of the law, it's a it's it's its meaning is conveyed indirectly through the miracle of language and the signifier, and that the focus on the symbolic order that's called in Lakan his psychoanalysis, the symbolic order, the signifier, and the return and redemption of the signifier, or the rebirth of the signifier, I should rather put it, after.
The kind of
What do you call it?
The um
The split that was introduced by Christianity
between the the dead letter and the kind of phenomenal
Um beauty, right?
And
I think Islam reconciles
Um
Jesus's message in a in a more final way than Christianity does.
And that's kind of why I consider myself a Muslim and not a Christian.
I I think Islam is more complete.
Because I think in Christianity, the idea is that completion will come in the end times.
And I think Islam says, no, the message is complete before the end times happen.
And I just kind of love this idea that like the message is complete.
And now we're just kind of like waiting for the end times.
Like, okay, it's complete.
The mission of the prophets is complete.
Humanity finally has absolute knowledge.
It has...
an absolute understanding of its role.
And I like that idea, like we already know.
And that has influenced kind of like my Marxism a lot.
Like we already live in socialism.
Like it's already here.
It's already complete.
All we have to do.
Is shed our ignorance, arrogance, shed our conceit, and submit to what is already here.
In Islam, the word is submission.
But what are you submitting to?
You're submitting to something that's already been completed, that's already here, that's already present.
And that's why I'm a Muslim.
Like, and it also informs in a lot of ways my understanding of Marxism.
To me, Christianity is not complete, it's not, you know.
Submit to what's already here.
It's more kind of like, okay, wait for the presence to come, to return, Jesus' return.
That's when it will come.
And I understand in Protestantism, there's this kind of attempt to make that more immediate through the word, through the Bible itself, without any mediation, through any bigger authority.
And it's like there's an attempt, and it kind of seems like it's similar to Islam there.
And I guess there's room to explore.
Finally, um.
When it comes to Orthodox Christianity, and you ask me why am I a Muslim and not an Orthodox Christian, I think the question um becomes a little bit more complicated for me.
Because I um feel a great affinity toward Orthodox Christianity on a spiritual and an emotional level actually.
Not just like an philosophical, actually an emotional level as well.
Um
I kind of schizophrenically believe that both Russian Orthodox Christianity specifically, but I guess broadly Orthodox Christianity, which I don't know, I I I always th if you I always think about it like
How in Haji Sophia
Like the wall is a little bit
Um, covered up, but it's not all covered up.
And there's like an icon of like Jesus or Justinian that's there, but it's like partially covered up.
And I feel like that partial that that kind I don't know if that would be called a liminal space of some kind between Islam and Christianity, where both of them meet.
It's impossible for them to be totally reconciled.
But like one represents this absolute division.
That brings us to the past, and then the other represents this kind of like absolute authority of the future, the message that we just submit to here and now in the present.
And I like, I don't know if I'm using the word correctly, the liminal space in between both of those is kind of where I am, I guess.
Um
So that's that's kind of my take on it.
Um
I am not against Christianity.
I'm not against Judaism either.
And I don't claim to know it all or or, you know, have have all the answers.
But that's just my perspective.
Could be wrong.
Could be totally full of it.
Whatever.
You know, every it's it's it's everyone's job to
It's very personal, it's everyone's job to kinda figure it out for themselves.
But I don't agree with the only religion that I'll use as a stick to bludgeon people with is Marxism.
Put it that way.
Like, I'm not going to have an Islam stick.
I'm not going to have a Christianity stick.
I'll have a Marxism stick.
You know, as long as you can obey a proletarian dictatorship, I don't care what religion you have.
Have whatever you, it's up to you.
It's up to your conscience, right?
But first of all, we need to establish the worldly authority of a proletarian dictatorship.
We need to establish a worldly authority of a new type of state which does respond, which is responsive to the absolute of that is humanity, you know?
A state that contains the most noble and lofty ideals of mankind, that represents a broad and sweeping vision of the future.
That needs to be built, established, and enshrined, and all need to.
Submit to it.
I don't know if that's, you know, I don't.
Maybe we come full circle.
I don't know, but.
I do believe in beating people with the stick of Marxism, specifically the writers of Game of Thrones, James Lindsay, other kinds of anti-communists.
When I see people bickering over religion on the internet, I kind of think that they are
Mentally handicapped.
Um I don't I don't consider that something worth bickering over.
You know, like you either believe it or you don't.
I don't know what to tell you.
Some guy tweeting at you or insulting you, it's not going to affect religious belief in any kind of meaningful way.
So that's my take.
I also really like the perennial.
I d I I I'll one last thing.
One of the reasons I also prefer being Muslim over Christian is because I think that because Islam claims to be the last religion and the completion of all of the messages bequeathed to mankind by the Divine, and the final completion of the absolute message, the absolute meaning bestowed to humanity on earth.
That also gives it a kind of dynamism.
In terms of the perennial outlook, it's extreme Islam is extremely dynamic.
When you look at it historically, all these Sufi orders or whatever, like extremely flexible and dynamic when it comes to leveling with other religions, like Sufi saints in the Indian subcontinent, literally mastering the Hindu religion, translating it over into the language of Islam and like converting people through that way.
And I feel like there's an ex there's Islam has this like radical perennial outlook.
Which finds something sacred in everything.
There's a sacredness in all things, in everything.
There's a sacredness in all religions, you know.
That it appreciates, and I that very much also resonates with me as well.
So yeah.
Um that's pretty much it though.
Uh expose Rabbi Shmooly.
I don't
I, you know, I saw something really interesting.
Rabbi Schmooley was in the Kahua house in NYC.
I didn't know NYC had one of those because we have them in Dearborn.
You know, we have a few of them actually here in Metro Detroit.
I love that place.
I actually get coffee from there like every day.
Spoiler!
But I saw a clip of Rabbi Shmooli walking into an NYC Kehwaha.
If you don't know this, it's Yemeni coffee.
He walked into one and he was with his phone.
He's like, you see, why can't all the Muslims be like this?
You know, I love this coffee, really good.
And I'm like, all right, Rabbi Shmooly is kind of mentally ill.
All right.
This guy's clearly mentally ill.
He's clearly confused.
clearly is just a just a deeply confused, mentally ill man.
And yes, his face is okay, I'll be mean.
I'll say he he looks physically disgusting.
I don't know what
is going on here with uh
I don't know what that he's got like a rash or something.
I don't know what it is.
It's just kind of not pleasant to look at.
But do I consider him dangerous?
No, I don't.
I just kind of think he's a crazy guy.
And if I saw him in person, I would not be angry at that guy.
I would just kind of like.
I'd either laugh or I'd be like, Gee oh man, this guy.
This guy's here, you know.
Better turn around and just walk the other direction.
I kind of pity him.
Yeah, exactly.
That's really it.
That's really it.
I just do kind of pity him.
Did he get Candace fired?
I don't know.
I honestly think Candice got fired because.
Because she was talking smack, I guess, in their in their eyes, against Israel.
Zionists run the Daily Wire, also Judaism.
It's really a sensitive topic.
What do you know?
I mean, like, you know, I guess the Daily Wire is owned by Jews, and Candace Owen is.
Talking bad about Judaism or whatever, and then that's what happens, or or talking bad about Israel because they're Zionists, not just Jews.
And it's like, you know, like, yeah, that makes sense.
I don't agree with it.
But you know, I also wanna kinda say 'cause like
Why are we acting like the Daily Wire was ever a platform for just like authentic free speech?
I feel like conservatives are the ones losing their mind over the daily.
I always thought the daily wire was like a piece of trash, Zionist trash.
But like these ex-Daily Wire people, like, oh my God, there's this huge battle gun.
The Daily Wire was always trash.
What are you talking about?
When was the d when was Ben Shapiro and the Daily Wire ever like a platform for people's free speech?
You're just like, Oh, the Daily Wire just fired Candice for And it's like, Yeah, I don't think Candice should be fired
But I also don't know what she expects working for the Daily Wire.
What do you expect?
I mean, am I crazy for saying that or what?
Like you work for you literally work for Zionists.
What do you expect to happen?
You know, did you think it's more of a problem when like the ADL or the Zionist lobby
Pressures like third-party like social media to censor.
That's where like I'm like, okay, I don't, I'm not down with that.
Yeah.
That's a problem.
But I don't know what Candace Owen expected, you know.
Uh the whole Christ is Christ as King anti-Semitic.
No?
I don't know who's saying that.
Doesn't seem like it to me.
I mean, what what's wrong with if you're a Christian, that's literal it's literally in the name Christianity, okay?
It's called Christianity.
So that's part of what the religion is.
If that that's what you say.
I mean, we say.
You know, we Muslims have our own things we say, and I'm sure Jews have their own things they say.
So I don't think that's anti-Semitic at all.
If you yell it at Jewish people yeah, yeah, I guess.
If you're antagonizing Jewish people at all and like going up to them and harassing them because they're Jews pretty sure that's uh
That's y yeah, you're anti-Semitic, you know, but
Here's the thing, I'll I'll I'll um
Probably see it as a bigger danger if I start seeing like ordinary Jews in real life.
You know, they're starting to get attacked by like conservatives or whatever.
Then, you know, because I because I see that, you know, Jake Shields and all these people are like, well, we just want to kind of curb the influence of the Zionist lobby on foreign policy.
And it's like, I mean, if that's all you're, if that's all you're about, and that's all this is about, it's like, okay.
But we have a suspicious eye open.
You know, that's the thing.
We have to keep a suspicious eye on what is ultimately going to come of that.
Ultimately, you know.
Also, uh I want to say something that um
That I think is important.
Speak not speaking of, it's kind of completely irrelevant.
But
I think people should start to appreciate now, especially now, springtime, we're really entering into the heated moments of the election season.
Now is the time where we need we need to reflect and learn from
Optics messaging the word communism in the right way.
You need to think of it subconsciously and intuitively, and I'll explain it to you, okay?
When you tell people
The number one question that needs to be on everyone's mind
Why is it that immediately, I'm saying immediately, without any thought,
Fascism is more appealing and attractive to dissident-minded people, uneducated people, than communism is.
That's the number one thing that should be on your mind.
And you need to focus on an unconscious level.
of how that confusion
arises and why it arises and what what mental associations people associate with both, okay?
Because
Propagating communism is not just we've been doing it in a factually oriented way.
We should keep doing that.
But it's not enough.
Propagating communist ideas needs to be unconscious.
It needs to be intuitive.
It needs to make intuitive sense.
That's the most important thing, okay?
And I think we're lacking in that department.
To do honest self-criticism, we are somewhat lacking in that department.
We need to focus on the right, we need to be like MK Ultra, but for communism, basically, we need to focus on the right trigger words and trigger images and propagate communism in the most effective way.
Because the fascists already, fascists, they mastered that.
And you have to understand something about fascists.
They are knee-deep in like all these esoteric, whatever traditions.
Rosenberg and all these Nazis were like they kind of were.
Engaging in their own psychoanalysis of like how to like make this libidinally attractive and appealing to people.
And I kind of agree with Georgia Bataille and the Sociological Society, the Akefell.
Where they're like we need to also do that for communism in a way, you know?
And um that's like meme warfare, you know, and some of you are very proficient at it.
I'll name names Kareem.
Knows what he's doing.
Kareem.
He's got this down.
He's not perfect, but he understands how this.
He understands the move, all right.
And I think you guys should learn from his example a little bit when it comes to like.
Counter signalling
Mimetic warfare, counter signaling right-wing memetic vectors of libidinal attraction and having communism.
Orvo as well, but I Orvo as well, but like
Uh, yeah, yeah, a lot of people are great.
I'm just telling you, I'm mentioning him specifically because, like, he kind of understands that the appeal of the right wing is not logical, logically based strictly.
It's very intuitive, it's very much that kind of thing, and we need to very much tap into that.
And that's the point of Lacan and all this stuff, you know?
I mean, I'm a Lacanian.
It's on my sleeve.
I wear it on my sleeve.
I'm literally a Lacanian.
I mean, infrared is as big as it is.
Because of like.
The limited extent of Lacanian wizardry that I'm capable of, right?
Me being able to present communism the way I did.
Had you guys see the light, right?
So we need to like double down and expand upon these methods.
Um
And do better at it because it's honestly, I'm just telling you guys the truth.
You tell me, okay, communism is the way.
And it's like, what are you telling them?
Because they hear in their head, like, oh, so you're just giving me a utopia.
Where's the edge?
Where's the negatives?
You know, where's there's, there's, you need to understand, it's like, it's almost like being a pickup artist, you know, as cringe as that sounds, it's like, you don't go up to a woman and just be like, you know, you're not saying nice guys finish last.
You don't want to be ideological nice guys.
You know, don't be ideological nice guys.
Um you don't go up to a woman and just be like, Hi.
I'm a great person.
you know not a good thing hi i'm a really nice guy you don't want to be that equivalent ideologically but i feel like 99 of western communists are that the reason russian communists are not like that the reason chinese communists are not like that because they have a they have a patriarchical tradition of authority communism is authority it's power that is already in the unconscious of their people.
Like, that's what it is.
It's power and authority, right?
Here, what are you selling people?
What are you telling them?
Oh, I can fix all your problems.
No, we have to be s that's why MAGA communism was a great we need to like do more MAGA communism, but not exactly that same phrase, but like more things like that, which like trigger the right associations in people's heads.
Um
Logo is really good at this, by the way.
He's like super good at it, but he.
If I ever become rich.
Like a multi-millionaire, like a I'm gonna like hire Logo as like a meme wizard to just like pump out memes and shit.
Sorry, excuse my French, but he's just so brilliant at it.
Exactly what I'm talking.
Intuitively being correct, not just factually.
Like you have to make sense intuitively, right?
Anonymous, thank you so much.
Did you hear about Volk Vulture 2 on X Level?
No, and there's only one Volk Vulture.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
It's our Volk Vulture, and I don't see the need to entertain any imposters if that's what that is.
Well, that's another donation.
Thanks for the donation.
It's kinda weird.
Um
But uh
You know, the the thing about communism that I've learned is that
I think in contrast to Nazism and fascism,
Indirectness is good.
Thank you so much, Yeet.
Appreciate you.
The reason MAGA communism was so great, I think it was because of that indirectness.
If you're just now, we need to.
Let me lay out the plan for you.
This is very important.
I want you to pay very close attention.
Very close attention.
Understand my words and understand guerrillas, very close attention.
So
Communist hegemony.
We defend the word communism.
We assert proudly the word communism in the capital C.
We've been doing all that.
That's great.
We need to keep doing that.
But.
We need to also allocate energy to other important sphere.
Let me explain to you the difference between hegemony as an authority.
and persuasiveness as a means of compulsion.
Okay.
Now us standing on business when it comes to communism, very good, very good.
We nailed it down.
Now we need to go to another phase, which is not just defending the authoritative tradition of communism,
but communicating and conveying and propagating Communist ideas in an effective way.
Propagating communist ideas and defending the authority of communism are two different things.
They're related.
You can't propagate the idea effectively if you don't stand on business.
Loherty, thank you so much.
If you don't stand on business, you can't propagate the ideas effectively.
But once you've got the standing on business locked down, now it's time to propagate the ideas effectively.
A good example of propagating the ideas was MAGA communism.
A good example of standing on business is how we respond to anti-communist propaganda and how we, you know, we rep the red flag, we rep the capital C, we rep Stalin.
That's the authority.
Propagation is a is it propaganda is a different thing, okay?
So when it comes to effectively propagating communist ideas, it needs to be indirect.
You don't shove portraits of Stalin in people's faces to convince them to be communists.
You shove portraits of Stalin in people's faces to show them we stand on business and we are willing to defend the authority of communism and communism has authority.
But it's not enough just for communism to have authority.
It also needs to be attractive to people.
To make it attractive, it needs to be indirect.
And good examples of that is it needs to be subtle.
One of the great things about Fon Winons, um,
Depiction of communist America is it's kind of very subtle.
It's like ordinary America.
There's a few red flags.
There's a subtlety there that I think is attractive because it's not directly in your face, like bombastically, but it's just kind of in the background.
And that's what exactly we need to do.
We need to have.
The motto of socialist realism was socialist in content, national in form.
We need to nail the form thing down.
We have the content thing down.
Communism, hammer circle, red flag, we have that down.
But the form is another matter.
We need to nail that down better, okay?
Uh one of the best ways is just being aesthetically pleasing, having aesthetically pleasing stuff.
One of the best vectors to make people interested in communism.
The Soviet anthem has probably converted more people to communist ideas in the West within the last two decades in the Internet age than any amount of pamphlets held out by the street, period, okay?
So that's like very clear, right?
So that's one thing you could do.
Another thing you could do is formulate effective.
Slogans, strategies, narratives, analysis,
Which the form of which is not just communism, but ultimately the content is just indirectly.
So, you guys need to understand what I mean by this.
Like, guerrillas, some of you are lacking in the charisma department, and you need to improve yourself, you know?
Some of you only are shock troops that just belligerently.
I'll give you guys a good example on this, you know, actually thinking about it.
When people JQ and they're not being aggressive about it, you don't necessarily have to antagonize them.
If they're being aggressive and like attacking us, sure, yeah, stand on business, right?
But if they're not doing that, you don't need to be belligerent for no reason.
Just because someone disagrees with us is not cause for belligerence.
If someone expresses a view that's wrong, you should be patient.
You should effectively communicate with them.
And actually persuade them in a charismatic way.
Now, if they're attacking our authority and they're trying to disrespect us and they're disrespecting us specifically, have at it, you know.
But ones in the chat, if you understand this distinction I'm talking about between authority and propaganda, the two are connected.
You need to maintain both.
We have authority nailed down.
We don't have propaganda nailed down.
You guys get what I'm saying?
You guys are lacking in the propaganda department.
You're doing great on the standing on business, defending the authority department.
But you're not.
Okay, some of you don't get it.
Uh that's okay.
Um.
I'm not sure how I could explain it besides how I did.
Uh
But um
Let's be mindful of the following fact.
The alt-right has been around since 2016, 2015.
And they they only came to the fore because for like a decade, these neo-Nazis on 4chan, elsewhere, they they were mastering this tool of propaganda, you know?
Mastering it.
Very methodically.
We came to the fore in twenty twenty one with barely any precedent.
And we catch up rapidly, just like Stalin catches up rapidly industrializing in ten years, but we need to know what direction we need to go in because we're serious about replacing not just replacing outmoding the alt right.
And
Establishing the neo-Bolshevik tendency, the communist tendency as the future.
That's all that stuff is the past.
This is the future.
The cutting edge of that crowd right now is
Um pushing the Overton window when it comes to talking about Jews, um, I guess.
But that's a road to nowhere.
You know, that's not cutting edge.
That's not a
And I guess a lot of the other stuff too is the religious revivalism.
I guess I guess they would say that's cutting edge.
You could see that it's cutting edge, but
We need we need to
tap into the religious stuff in our own way.
disencouraging the LARPing elements, the cringe LARP, but
We need to be fully upfront about the fact that Marxism
In a perennial way, it integrates the spiritual traditions of mankind.
We shouldn't be allergic or shy away from.
The
deeper search for religiosity.
That is
affecting the youth right now.
We've done an excellent job talking to libertarians for a long time.
And um
We need to we need to wage
An effort that is on multiple fronts, not just one.
And um
Bordiga Lover 406.
Hey, that's my alt.
You guys remember my alt, Bordiga Lover?
My famous Twitter alt that totally is my alt, but is somehow in the chat.
How are you doing, man?
You've been around for a long time.
What about the remarked about them being nostalgic for the 50s or 80s?
It seems to evoke the right emotion.
No, no.
No, no, this is uh mistake.
We need to be very futuristic and have a retrofuturism, if anything, similar to Fan Wenan's works, similar to Xi Jinping's works and stuff.
There's nothing wrong with retrofuturism, but the vapor wave nostalgia.
No, no, no, no.
That's not.
That's just kind of encouraging homosexuality.
Excuse my French.
Not meaning to spread hatred, but it's just confusing a psychosexual pathology that we don't want to reinforce.
It's unhealthy and it's false.
So we have to distinguish ourselves.
It's an important thing.
Guys, we're not here to rebrand the alt-right and just like do all the things they did, but with a red coat of paint.
No, we need to qualitatively give form to an alternative communist position.
Okay?
So we're not going to do like all the alt-right memes, but with a red coat of paint.
No.
It's going to be a fundamental difference of aesthetic orientation.
It's going to be a fundamental difference of the emotions that cause see, this is the thing.
We're not here to target the same emotions that the alt-right does in people's subconscious.
We are here to target an untapped reservoir, completely different emotions, okay?
The emotions of bigness, of grandness, of wanting to be part of something loftiness, not the narrow, pornographic, immediate, direct.
You know, um
Libidinal satisfaction that far-right ideology gives its victims, but
A sense of wideness, bigness.
And it's literally the sun gorilla meme we have: the power of the sun.
It's a wide perspective.
It's not a narrow perspective.
It's one that allows you to appreciate the depth of reality, the greatness, the bigness of it, the power of the people.
Understand this.
significance of power, you know, in in in the alt-right or fascist
psychopathology.
It's a kind of sadomasochistic BDSM thing.
For us, power is not power to abuse and victimize people.
It's power to do great things.
Power as empower, right?
That's like the power of the sun.
So we have a totally different aesthetic, we have a totally different vibe we're aiming for.
We're not here to just put a red coat of paint on all the kinds of
Strange forms of homosexuality the right-wing alt-right cultivates in its victims.
Um
No, not the Roman Empire, sorry, but
Byz we are the Byzantine Empire.
We're not the
We're not the cringe Roman Empire.
We're more like the Byzantine and then the Ottomans and then Russia.
That's our guys, all right?
We're not the cringe Roman Empire.
If we are the Roman Empire, it's a totally different interpretation.
Like, the whole.
The Roman the Red Centurion No, no, no, that's cringe nonsense.
We're more like Byzantine style, all right?
Um
We are a kind of Orientalized perspective on the legacy of Rome, not the Western one.
Anyway, uh yeah, we're the Mongols.
We're that's yeah, exactly.
Mongols.
Um
Exactly.
Why is the Roman Empire cringe?
Uh it's just kind of like this it's not the Roman Empire in reality.
It's more like the way it's remembered after British neoclassicism in the sixteen hundreds is more or less like this kind of like stringent um
The the whole neoclassical tradition kind of reinterprets the Roman Empire as this kind of like empire of rationalism.
It's an empire of like stringent um
Logo-centric rigidity and rationalism, and kind of like.
Um, anal fixation in psychoanalytic terms.
We don't want any of that.
We are the Byzantine Empire.
We have a kind of more Sophianic orientation, which.
Is a kind of
The depths of
The mystical and the kind of myst mystery, you know?
That's kind of where we are.
We're not like this stupid Roman LARP.
Um but anyway, um
And then also neoclassicism kind of culminates in Nazism, right?
The Nazis are doing the Hail Hitler salute.
It's a Roman, that's what they call it, the Roman.
It's neocla it's not exactly Rome, it's neoclassicism.
It's a specific interpretation of antiquity, according to which it's kind of like this Cartesian rationalist empire
Yeah.
The pure formalism of pure form, right?
So that's what we reject completely.
And the name of our enemy aesthetically is this kind of gay, alt-right Roman centurion, but it's vaporwaved.
And then there's like a black box over the eyes, and it's like, This is what we lost.
And it's like vapor wave face.
Like, and then there's a Sun and Rand or some shit.
It's like, we need to take an RPG and literally blow that up and launch an RPG missile at that shit and all the people who create it and just blow it up.
Like, we need to have a guerrilla like the Kool-Aid man just break through that fucking shit through the wall.
Excuse my French.
The power of a sun radiating through it and just burning and exterminating all of the people who indulge in that disgusting slop garbage, okay?
So, you need to understand what kind of vibe that we're on.
All right.
Definitely not that one.
There is also Stalinist neoclassicism.
Kind of true.
That's not necessarily true, actually.
Socialist realism incorporated the good elements of neoclassicism, but ultimately it did away with the formalism.
So I would actually say Stalinist architecture incorporated neoclassicism.
It incorporated Mediterranean, kind of like Byzantine style.
It seemed like it was incorporating even.
More like ancient Bronze Age kind of stuff.
All sorts of stuff, pretty much, mishmashing them together into one like integrated, holistic kind of aesthetic orientation, which was the important thing, it was substantive.
It wasn't just like an empty, pure form.
Thank you, Anonymous.
Do you have any examples of aesthetics you like most?
I mean, just look at socialist realism, honestly.
That's the best thing I could tell you for now.
But Stalinist.
Aesthetics were substantive, whereas
Neoclassicism by itself is substanceless.
That's the whole point.
It's trying to give expression of pure formalism, pure air with no earth.
Stalinist aesthetics is very they're very earthly, right?
It's not the pure white marble.
It's colored in, it's tan a little bit.
It's a little bit brown.
It's a little bit colored in, you know, you've got some of that.
Egyptian admixture, you know?
So to speak.
You got that solar admixture.
It's impure, so to speak.
But it's like it's weighty, it's substantive.
It's human, you know?
It's like Babylonian, not Greek.
Anyway.
Um
That's kind of what I'm talking about.
Brutalism.
Again, all these kinds of things, brutalism, modernism, just like neoclassical, there's a line of continuity.
Neoclassicism, you know, that develops into modernism, that develops into formalism and constructivism and brutalism and high modernism, whatever the hell you want to call it.
And it's all based on trying to arrive at the purity of form, right?
Pure formalism, pure geometry, pure mathematics.
In contrast to that, you have the Baroque, you have the kind of more ornamental.
orientation which
It's not as ascetic, it's not as rigid, it's kind of more not just pure form, but also like.
substantive content, you know, and it's the dialectical interaction between both that we need to we need to arrive at the golden center, basically.
Like
In excess, both are bad in either direction.
It's the perfect golden mean that socialist realism arrives at, because it's a dialectic of form and content, you know?
So yeah.
So, yeah, I mean, like, compare Nazi propaganda to the Soviet kind.
Here's the thing.
Soviet propaganda is swarthy, okay?
They're white people, sure, they're blonde, but they're tanned.
They're like they're like actual people.
You know, they're not like this, like, marble statue nonsense of, like, this unhealthy
Dead, lifeless, pure form.
It's kind of like a vital humanity.
Just like the sun gorillas that we have, right?
That's why I say the Soviet Union was a black empire.
Like it was black.
I'm not going to elaborate.
It was like on the side of the black world.
Thank you so much, Krass.
It's like, let's say there's a war between the white world and the black world.
Like, the Soviets were on the side of the black world.
All right.
I'm not going to explain or elaborate, but.
I'm not going to elaborate.
I just don't feel like I have to.
All right.
Uh anyway
50s Democrats will say, and I'm like, it's not based on skin color or race.
It's like a vibe.
Like the Soviets, like they were white people.
Like they were like, I guess, racially Caucasian, but it's like they were on the side of the black world empire, right?
The white world.
And then also, there could be black people who are part of the white world empire.
But it's not based on race.
It's more like kind of based on like pure formalism versus.
Dialectics.
I don't know how else to put it, guys.
I don't know how else to put it.
It's like bigness, like bigness.
Where's like little marriage you know what I mean?
Like there's a big contrast.
Like, big and powerful versus like an African elephant versus like some limp-wristed little.
Pencil neck
weakling hiding behind a
hiding behind some tower, employing mercenaries using usurious, fictitious capital to accomplish their aims versus like a direct conqueror, you know, it's kind of it's it's like, I don't know, I don't know what to tell you guys.
Anyway,
Um people are like, Well, you're anti-white, how is your and it's like, you know.
You might be on to something.
It depends on what you mean.
If you mean like racially, no.
But if you mean like, if you mean by white, like.
This metaphysical notion of like
Formalistic neuroticism.
Yeah, you're kinda right.
I'm not gonna lie.
Like, yeah, I've I always been like direct about that though.
Like, I've always been always been kinda upfront about that.
I don't mean it in the sense of, like, actually, I'm against white people.
It's more kind of like if you if you're like this neo-Nazi
who has this kind of like neuroticism
metaphysical neuroticism where you're like
You
I don't know how to explain it, you know, I don't know.
It's not really a racial thing, it's kind of a civilizational thing when you think about it.
It's like the crisis of Western civilization, like the inability to come to terms with material being and just kind of always trying to
It's like the problem of, you know, Dugan has this thing where like Western civilization is defined by the unity of Apollo and Dionysus.
But it's like in the absence of a f Dionysus replaces the female.
So instead of a man and a woman as the foundation, like the metaphysical foundation of your civilization, it's like a man and then a guy pretending to be a woman, basically, who w who adopts all the feminine mannerisms and thinks that they know that thinks they can just kind of replicate the essence of what the female is.
And it's like
That is kind of a problem, you know?
I don't know.
It's missing the Sophianic, Sophianic element.
Um, which is the context of the patriarchal authority.
I'm kind of gibbering, kind of sounds like nothing I'm saying, but if you get it, you get it anyway.
I'm getting my, I already got myself in too much trouble.
Uh, anyway, guys.
Anyway, guys, I will see you Tuesday.
Been a great stream.
Had a great time.
Once in the chat if you had a great time today, just a great time.
Just chilling, hanging out.
Chillin' out, maxin' all cool.
Well, I don't even know how the song goes.
Um
When's the book out?
When's the guys?
The more you ask, the longer it's going to take, okay?
We've had a great stream.
And Tuesday we may have it on X.
I haven't decided.
Alright guys, I'm gonna go play Minecraft.
I'm just kidding.
But uh
Nah, I got a lot of work to do.
Kinda slacked off last night watching that show, so I actually have to do work.
I'll see you guys Tuesday.
I'm trying to think is one last thing I forgot to say.
I'm gonna say this, and it's not happening.
Like the infrared Minecraft, when we did it in 2021, the first one we did, that was straight up so fun.
But we're never doing that again, ever.
I'm a grown-ass man, 27 years old.
I kind of miss it.
But I'm not gonna do it.
Because at a certain point, guys, you have to say, like, you know what?
Listen, video games sound fun.
I'm a grown-ass man.
It's not for us anymore.
It's just not.
But it's true.
You could be 40 years old and still playing video games because they actually are fun.
You know, there's never an age where you're going to like get bored of video games.
So you need to actually put a line in the sand and be like, I am too old for this.
I'm not doing it.
After I got back from Russia, that's what I was.
I was like, I haven't, I'm like, I'm not, I'm done.
I'm not playing any video games ever.
Even just like check them out.
Yeah.
But it was good times, and that's the truth.
It was fun.
Video games can help sur elderly surgery patients avoid dementia.
I didn't know that.
But uh
I'm trying to think, like
No, there's no game that was made better than Minecraft when you think about it.
I'm sorry.
There's all Helldivers and
Y'all ever see those TikTok videos of that guy who's like pretending to be a boomer and um he he's like doing a skit where he's like he's going up to the uh plant people.
He's at he's at like a uh Home Depot and he's in the plant section and it's like uh POV.
You meet a boomer who thinks he's the only person that exists.
Something like that.
And he like goes up to the uh
He goes up to like the employee and he's like, You guys don't happen to have an Acadia tree, do you?
You know what that is, right?
And then the guy's like, Uh.
Let me just, um, yeah, sure.
Let me just look it up in my system.
And then the boomer's just like, and he just walks away, like, dude.
I love it so much.
Did you guys see that?
You guys know what I'm talking about, are we like an old person, like they're just is walking away like that.
Dismissive hand wave.
Yeah, that's the guy who does the average Redditor skit.
Like, I've seen all his videos, not all of them, like a lot of them at this point.
I can't dig it up, but it's like so on point.
I don't know.
Who is that guy?
Is that guy like the CIA?
Because he's so good at what he does.
It's like he's so on point.
Like, yeah, like average Redditor.
Like, he's so.
I don't know how he, like, that guy's a genius.
What's wrong with him?
It's like so on point.
I don't even know how to sp put it, you know?
Anyway, guys, yeah, the slappable jerk, that's his name.
Anyway, guys, I got I do I gotta go on.
I do gotta go now.
See you guys later.
Say hi to Slicker.
Bye-bye.
Oh my god, I'm smart!

I love you, bro.
Holly, open up.
See?
I'm smart.
Tell me I'm dumb or not.
She won't know I'm here.
But I needed the knife.
I missed the turn around, please.
I missed up.

Yes, you.
Hands behind your back.
Let's go.
Hold still.
