And yet when I look over there at what the British people some of them are trying to do I I I kind of I refuse to judge them for uh whatever for doing whatever it is that they feel they have to do as their Homeland their ancient Homeland is being taken from them because that is not something that can be walked back that is permanent that is something that ends Your Existence as a people like unless you're going to be like the Jews and uh you know go off into Exile and sort of manage to maintain yourself you and even the Jews they understood that they needed a little spot somewhere on Earth that was their special place to develop their culture and to work things work out their history among themselves as a community of people and the English people are having that taken from them you know the the Irish people Ireland is on track to be minority Irish by like 2070 and you say okay okay hang on like a they never colonized anybody B they were colonized and like got the really nasty end of that a lot of the time uh you know suffered a lot they fought for hundreds of years against brutal uh British attempts to try to bring them into the British fold and squash that uniqueness you know that they had out there the British couldn't do it and the British for a while there could do damn near anything yeah okay and they spent a lot of of time trying to oppress Ireland a lot yeah and it was a I mean not only that it was a it was a chief priority for a lot time yeah bring it to heal and you know we have a we have a a bit of a um skewed view of the British Empire just because and and there are a lot of things that are glorious and wonderful about the British Empire but United States like we don't quite understand like the way the you know how bad it was to fall on the wrong side of the Empire because they really treated us with kid gloves During the Revolution you know that we had half a parliament that were on our side they did to the BS yeah EXA exactly that's what you know they could have done to us they created the Concentration Camp yes yeah and they ran a lot of them during World War II actually you that's another thing it's actually pretty awful is uh you as soon as the war broke out Churchill had all of the German and Italian Nationals in Great Britain all rounded up and thrown into concentration camps where they would stay to the end of the war and this is 1939 and a huge number of those people were Jewish refugees who had come over from Germany to England they were just rounded up and thrown in camps for six years well he also had the opposition party thrown in prison for the duration Oswell Mosley and his wife uh right after giving birth you know spent the duration people died um that doesn't look like democracy to me are you saying that zalinski is not running a democracy I'm saying if you don't have elections and you're throwing priests in jail if you're murdering people who disagree with you as he has you know you call whatever that's like basically a pretty constant form of government throughout history it's fine I mean it's like less barbaric than most forms of government actually through history it's not democracy yeah so please Don't lecture me anymore about that well I mean we've seen this in the United States even obviously a much smaller scale crisis um although Maybe not maybe it is an existential crisis for the people who are making the decisions but ever since 2016 yeah where democracy is great we love democracy but that's for normal times it's not for World War II it's not for when we've got insurrections going on and sometimes you know you've got to take Extraordinary Measures that may not be Democratic but it's to preserve de it's always the excuse right the excuse of every always it Lincoln's excuse exactly but can I just so the what's happened to uh the UK and Ireland is not accidental is there any evidence that the people of those countries whose ancestors have lived there for thousands of years who or the indigenous peoples of those countries that they wanted this they wanted to be I mean certainly not the the majority of the people who live there right obviously like you can go to any Western Country the most just you know degraded cucked country you can possibly find in the west and the majority of people there don't want any of that happening to them this is something that has a class element to it it has uh as these countries that become more multiethnic and Multicultural it has um ethnic you know elements to it's like there's a lot of things that create a sort of a class of people and it's a class of people who have most of the influence and power who actually do want these things because they don't identify with the people who are against it on the ground and this is something that if you see in unit you know we've seen in the United States in the West in general that was budding already I mean I would say personally it goes all the way back to the foundation but like definitely you see in like the 1960s if you think of somebody like John Lindsay right John Lindsay was the mayor of New York for a while and he was sort of quintessential he didn't grow up like super rich old money was the last wasp mayor of but he was like he was like that he was the WASP right he's the guy who limousine liberal the term was invented for yeah and if you look at the way he conceived of himself and the way that he uh in his class the people who supported him the Eastern establishment types and and people like him um where they sort of Drew their own sense of selfworth and their Collective identity was first we're better than those white people in the South who are protesting Martin Luther King and so forth we're better than them or the parents in South Boston who don't want busing for their own children but then right so as the after the Civil Rights Movement kind of came to a conclusion uh in 1965 and the Great Migration was starting to create a lot of conflict in the northern cities like New York uh that idea the southerners are always they're they're always there as a foil for uh northern and western Elite you know identity construction but it shifted to these ethnic groups that live that lived in the cities the Jews which sounds strange today that like a you know a wasp mayor who's publicly obsessed with social justice would be against the Jews in a you know in in a conflict but he was at the time and it was because you know all these people the Irish and the Italians these people who think that like that's their neighborhood because it's been their neighborhood for a hundred years now and you know it's a everybody in the neighborhood goes to a Parish church that um they've gone to their grandparents went to um they have internal social structures and uh dispute arbitration structures and all of these sort of organic institutions that that grew up from ground level that gave them an ability to self-govern in a way that made it so they really like were not as dependent on uh the state bureaucracy to do these things for them right they could do a lot for themselves and uh and these are the people who uh were resisting you know the movement of African-Americans into their communities when people look back for example like when when Martin Luther King went up to Chicago in 1966 and there was the Marquette Park Riot to this day like you can go you have to go into a pretty deep serious history book about that period to get the fact that you know everybody sees that as is a bunch of white people who came out to protest a bunch of black people moving or you know trying to open up their neighborhood uh but that wasn't a bunch of white people those were Lithuanian people that was a Lithuanian neighborhood that had been a Lithuanian neighborhood for some time these were a bunch of people who had come over here as refugees and had set up a little Community for themselves that they didn't want change you know when uh that's a Latino Community with a bunch of art St white art students moving into it and gentrifying it in Brooklyn or uh Los Angeles you know people don't have a problem saying that they have a right to you know to to maintain this community that they've built for themselves and I actually kind of agree with that like when I see gentrification happening it's like you know um I'm sympathetic at the very least I'm very sympathetic yes it the crime thing makes me look I'm against I'm against Crime I'm against hurting people you know strangers but the idea that people of all backgrounds races everybody every human being has a right to like have a cohesive social network around him and live the way he basically wants to without bothering others and shouldn't be subject to you know abstract social planning that takes no account of human beings like yes yeah yes I'm on this yeah I agree you know there's this very interesting uh well actually you know what that'll take me off on a whole other tangent I want to stick on the topic you were talking about you bring up like what's happening in England and Ireland and I think I think it's hard for a lot of Americans to really understand uh the tragedy of what's happening over there for for the simple reason that and I'm not I'm not trying to trivialize our struggles with similar issues here in the United States I just say that they're that they're different that you know in the United States we've essentially had unending demographic turmoil from the very beginning you know we fought our Revolution and within a generation uh most of the major cities on the East Coast were all majority Irish and this was at a time when English and Irish wasp and Irish was you know these were foreign foreign peoples to each other you know Catholic and Protestant that was still unresolved when I was small even I mean it went on a while and So within a generation you know of the Revolution most of the cities on the East Coast or majority Irish or at least huge chunks of them are super majority Irish even if the whole City's not quite not to mention there's a lot of Germans uh although they assimilated to the WASP majority pretty well pretty quickly but then within a generation of that just as the Irish are kind of starting to move out of the slums a little and become middle class kind of members of the society you start getting a ton of Italians a ton of Jews a ton of all the Southern and Eastern Europeans who start coming in and you see a repeat of the same process a lot of the same problems the institutions all start to break down the schools break down the infrastructure breaks down and they blame the people coming in because got a lot of violence and revolutionary a lot of violence organized crime revolutionary movements all those things I mean people forget that you know a lot of the lynching victims in the late 18 early 1900s were Italians there's a famous one in in New Orleans but there are a lot of famous ones and uh and so that happens and then we cut off foreign immigration in 1924 um but then we start the great migration of African-Americans out of the South you have the Oki migration out west from uh the Dust Bowl you have the the the big hillbilly migrations out of Appalachia up to Detroit and chicag those places and um so we're just used to the like s the fact that we're always renegotiating our identity here you know we were this this British former British colonies that just fought for our independence but now we've got to figure out how to construct a collective identity that includes all these Irish people that came in and like one of the ways that we've done that traditionally has been through War you know the fact that there were so many Irishmen who came into the country and fought on the side of the union and the Civil War if you look at like uh I mean World War II to a great did I mean if you think about the city of Vicksburg which didn't didn't celebrate the 4th of July after it was conquered during the Civil War like stopped celebrating the Fourth of July and I remember I was watching uh the the Ken Wood Ken Burns documentary about this war he mentioned this and he said they didn't they didn't celebrate the Fourth of July again for like X number of years and it's not off the top of my head because I don't remember exactly what year they were was it 63 Vicksburg anyway um he said for X number years and I thought about it for a second I was like oh that was July 4th 1944 that was a month after D-Day and that's what got this place that was extremely bitter over all this uh you know to raise the the flag and celebrate the Fourth of July again so we've used Warfare 80 years yeah yeah and we've used Warfare for that purpose and that's not an uncommon thing but it's it's it's one of the one of the means that we've done to unify our people and as
