How should we study controversial thinkers and topics? Do we always have to agree completely with everything an author writes? That’s one of the topics I’ll be discussing in today’s livestream. We’ll cover Zionism and the fourth political theory, the conservative hot girl phenomenon, and the argument that Israel should be a monarchy without a monarch. Enjoy.

Funny thing, I am reading Montesquieu because I heard he was the 2nd most quoted person at the constitutional convention. He was firm in his belief that slavery was wrong, buuuut he also had a section justifying slavery of negros – something like "well they're ugly and devoid of common sense so we have to enslave them." I am paraphrasing here but even as a black person I just had to laugh and move on lol
Why do so many israelis openly wish and call for genocide? Calling other amalekites, using very disgusting terror tactics… if you can't criticize your nation. It's a cult.
Lol the Bjork movie you mention about an hour in was Dancer in the Dark. I guess not for everybody!
I don't understand how come someone who is informed like you be pro-Israel it make no sense
Do you know that jews wanted or british wanted to give the land in Uganda to the Jews?.Now we have the problem of the jews settling in cape town South Africa, they are strengthening apartheid and targeting the trading route in SA,mineral resources and this is problem for us natives because we dont want colonialism actual we reject the west with it implants of population in our soil
I quite liked Megalopolis (although I admit it was a huge mess with a lot of objective issues) and it indeed was kind of an unusual one, compared to a lot of modern films, for focusing in on ideas over plot and the kinds of characters it had which were almost more like old moral stories. I might be giving it way too much credit though
As a right wing extremist extraordinaire’ anti neoliberal, I appreciate what you do Mr. Millerman.
Why would I appose the concept of Jewish nationalism when I yearn for the creation of ethno national majorities throughout the West?
Sure, some Jews have played a major role in the creation and dominance of neoliberal democracy, open borders, civil rights and the elevation of minority status to the detriment of the West. But that does not mean I hold Mr Millerman responsible for these treasonous actions. Besides, these concepts are metaphysical even though they will eventually transcend the metaphysical and form the flesh.
It’s the doctrines of neoliberal democracy in its current forms and manifestations in which I despise most, not the flesh. 🤬
Well the grand game is just beginning! Let’s see if neoliberal democracy can stand the test of time or succumb to nothing more than an ash heap within the fires which burns deep inside every living human being.
To be or not to be.
Das ist der Antwort!
a state “in the land of Israel” , “mostly for Jews” – yes, key parts of the definition of Zionism.
But what makes that a correct description of that part of the Middle East? An ethnic disposition 2000 years ago?
In 1900 there were about 20000 Jews living in the place named Palestine.
Zionism did not try very successfully to hide that its objective would require displacing the great majority Arab population.
And the ongoing ethnic cleansing carries on a century later.
How I wish you'd moderate a debate between, Darryl Cooper and, say, Auron MacIntyre or Peter Thiel (on the one side, those who can see value in Schmitt, Evola, Strauss, Heidegger or Dugin) and James Lindsay and his pal "King Crocoduck" (on the other side, who both seem to think any borrowed views of the same thinkers explicitly proves an esoteric pushing of fascism by a crypto movement of the "Woke Right" or "Post Liberals").
You say don't ape, but you are pro zio?
It is not logical, rational or ethical to be supporting Netanyahu or his party's actions. You are not a stupid man, so I will be generous and assume you simply are not fully informed. This is not simply about an ethnicity having the right to their own nation and to present it as such is intellectually dishonest. Are you claiming that it's fine to wipe out one ethnicity to make way for another? That is how they're trying to do it. Not to mention they intentionally cause conflict in order to create or maintain the excuse to attack and deny a two state solution. As stated by their own officials publicly.
I'm sorry, but you are either lacking full knowledge on this topic because you prefer only thinking of theory, or..well I won't even go there.
Zionism has no moral logic. People cannot return to land where their ancestors lived hundreds of years before; just as I cannot even return to the land of my parents. Also, Zionism itself condemns the Jewish religion/people by inferring they are unable to coexist harmoniously with others.
I wonder what an Imperial pagan society would look like.
All very elegant and that, but just exactly in which political theory it is OK to commit genocide to complete its goals?
When philosophy abstracts away humanity, it is no longer relevant to humanity.
