We were talking about Japan earlier because they're going through this population crisis and all that stuff. So, um, we'll start with the stupidest question I can ask, but it's fun anyway. You know what Japan is.
>> Yeah.
>> Uh, you're familiar with some Japanese cities?
>> Yeah.
>> Tokyo?
>> Yeah.
>> Have you ever heard of Okinawa?
>> I have, yeah. Sounds familiar, right? What's that? N1 Naoyasha?
>> Uh, Nagasaki. There's Kyoto.
>> Kyoto is what I'm thinking of in there.
>> Kyoto. It's funny because Tokyo, Kyoto. Um, so, here's the fascinating thing that I learned cuz I don't I did you know, I know a little bit about Japan, but
>> Yeah.
>> I've been reading into it a lot because of the population crisis. And recently we've seen stories of uh Indian migrants and African migrants raping women.
>> Right.
>> Because Japan has been desperate for labor because their population is collapsing.
>> Yeah.
>> Japan re-strategized now and they're targeting white Americans to move to Japan. And so, they are promoting these videos where you'll see like a 26-year-old hippie dude from America wearing crystals.
>> Yeah.
>> And he'll be like, he'll post a video on Instagram where he's like, "This is the day in the life of riding to my countryside Japanese home." He's like, "I wake up in the morning." And he's like a surfer dude with long hair and a and a crystal on his neck. And he's like, "I bought this five-bedroom house for $25,000." And they're promoting these because they're like, "Hey, look, we don't want impoverished Indians and we don't want African migrants to come in because they don't respect. They don't like anybody. Gaijin, it means foreigner. They don't like anybody. But the people who are realizing in Japan either the country retracts from population collapse and this is no civilization has survived it. Uh, either they bring in people or they they retract. I I'm actually I have no problem with retraction and rolling up my sleeves and doing the hard work."
>> Yeah.
>> You know, I'm getting a little off subject, but I'm just going to say
>> Yeah.
>> You know, Trump's strategy is largely this. Like, seal the border, like close the borders down, restrict immigration, bring our working class back. It's going to get bad for everybody, but we're going to roll up our sleeves, do the hard work. I'm fine with that.
>> Mhm.
>> Japan has this compromise where they're like, "Just bring white people." Like they're they're they're peaceful, they're calm, they're generally going to be high skill. But we're talking about culture.
>> Mhm.
>> What fascinated me to learn while I'm looking at all these stories and understanding what how they're dealing with it, I've heard of Okinawa and a lot of people have. So here's Japan on the map. I want I want people to look at this map. Can we pull this up? Is there a Yeah, okay.
>> Here's Japan, right?
>> Mhm.
>> Yeah, Okinawa is down here.
>> Oh, really?
>> That's what it is. Okinawa is down here.
>> Yeah.
>> It's an island. I I didn't know that.
>> No.
>> I have heard of Okinawa. I had no idea how far away it was from Japan. And you can look down here. Look at this one. I never even heard of this place, Taketomi. And uh
>> This is uh
>> I'm pretty sure this is Japanese. It looks like it might be. It's I don't think it's Chinese. Ishigaki sounds Japanese. But I'm pretty sure Ishigaki is Japan. And it's so incredibly far away. Actually, uh, I want to make sure
>> Yeah.
>> because it it's not Oh, yeah, no, there there you go. Yeah. Uh, it's it's Japan. Look how far away
>> Yeah.
>> This This right next to Taiwan. How far away from Japan it actually is. And that's the point of culture. That the fact that there are there are people there
>> Yeah.
>> as far away as they are from the Japanese, they are ethnically and culturally Japanese despite being separated.
>> Yeah.
>> Now, like the United States, of course, we we are a land that was conquered.
>> Mhm.
>> And Hawaii of was conquered.
>> Yeah.
>> And so there are native Hawaiians.
>> Mhm.
>> They are they are not the same as like the New Englander, you know, white Americans.
>> Yeah.
>> The United States has a culture. And of course, it's fair to say that the United States is a is a is a I I could I just call I don't call it colonized. I say it's a conquered land. We we came here, there were a people, we settled on certain lands that were uninhabited and we we we took lands that were not. And this happens all across the world.
>> Yeah.
>> Well, you made a country out of just land, like many of uh these places. You know, they say, "Oh, we conquered it." and all that. But, the people who conquered created the same with Australia. They created Australia.
>> Right.
>> It's there. They're founders.
>> I have no uh no issue. I You know what's funny is um Mexico is If you want to talk about a conquered land,
>> Yeah.
>> the Spanish coming in and just the wiping out the Aztecs and Incas.
>> Yeah.
>> But, you know, I think there's an important thing that needs to be said and we need to stop uh I'm a big fan of Matt Walsh. I'm I'm Yeah. And he makes the point that the Aztecs, they were savages.
>> Mhm.
>> And we need to stop pretending and and playing this game of they call it the noble savage myth.
>> Yeah.
>> Aztecs were sacrificing children to make it rain, to make the crops grow.
>> Yeah.
>> That's that's that's an absurdity. When when the when the when the European colonists came to the United States, it wasn't the same as when the uh the further north you get, the more chill it was
>> Yeah.
>> because of winter. But, in the United States, I have no illusions. Yeah, we conquered this land.
>> Mhm.
>> Uh, I'm not going to claim that every every every land was owned by someone. That's silly.
>> Yeah.
>> You get these leftists, they say, "Oh, the Native Americans in this place." And I'm like, "Listen,
>> Yeah.
>> it was it was, you know, hundreds of thousands of acres or whatever of uninhabited wilderness.
>> Yeah.
>> There were people there. Some of them left freely. Some of them did not. Some of them fought wars and lost. Every nation has their history of conquest.
>> Of course.
>> You you We're not going to play the stupid game where it's like, "You lose your land now."
>> No.
>> I will say what's fascinating is um how, you know, Ireland is kind of the inverse.
>> Mhm.
>> You are the indigenous who defended your land for hundreds of years and maintained your culture.
>> Yeah.
>> They still want to erase it.
>> That's it. Like, if these people that are civic nationalists now and believe, you know, anyone can come in and be Irish, were we English when we were in the British
>> [laughter]
>> Empire? Do you know? Essentially, were we English or were we Irish? Because in their view, we would have been English, we would have been British. You know, it's so fascinating.
>> Yeah.
>> That And then you stopped being British the moment the name changed, you know what I mean?
>> Yeah, yeah. And and those people, why did they want a land of their own and to be ruled by their own? And they these topics are completely they don't they're they don't even they don't want to address them. They pretend now which is they're giving all the power to the state essentially. They're saying, "Look, the state decides who's Irish. The state decides who lives beside us." Um
>> You know what's really funny is I wonder if this has been done. You can make a video
>> Mhm.
>> where you line up like five people
>> And then who's Irish is it?
>> And you ask them who's the Irishman? And then it's like, you get a you get a Norwegian. You get an American who is 100% Irish, like second or third generation. And then you get a Somali born in Ireland. And you ask the question. And the funny thing is the left is going to
>> They couldn't they they wouldn't answer. They're too scared. They know
>> Well, I think if you go to if you go to a small town with pride flags everywhere
>> Yeah.
>> and you said you know, you'd have to approach it in an interesting way. You'd have to be like, "Hey, we're doing trivia for you know, it's $100. It's a game show." You ask you first you ask them because you you can't just walk into it otherwise they'll get you. You ask them a question like, "What is the capital of the you know, the state of Illinois?" And they're like, "Oh man, for $100, we know it's Springfield." You win.
>> [snorts]
>> And then you'll be like, "What what you know, what nation
>> Yeah.
>> is to the west of Great Britain?"
>> Mhm.
>> You know, and and actually shares a border.
>> Yeah.
>> And then they'll be like, "Ireland." They'll be like, "You're correct. Okay, now here's the next one. Here's a picture. Which one is the Irish person?"
>> Yeah.
>> See what see you know, what they're going to say? They're going to point to the white person.
>> Yeah.
>> They're going to be like, you you you have a Chinese guy.
>> Yeah.
>> You have a Somali person.
>> Yeah.
>> And then you get and then you get an American born white Irish, you know. And then you have the Somali who's born in Ireland of Irish citizenship. And then watch them all pick the white American. Oh, I'm sorry, that's an American.
>> Yeah. Why didn't you
>> [laughter]
>> Why didn't you Why didn't you think that?
>> Exactly.
>> Catch the mouse. Yeah, it's shocking. The whole The whole The whole worldview doesn't make any sense. We've gone from a man is a woman to now to to essentially now a Somalian is an Irish person, even Congolese, wherever. It's just And the fact that you have to defend this or argue it.
>> Well, it's a We got We got We have a few minutes left left. I'll just ask you why Why should there be a country for Irish people?
>> [snorts]
>> Well, what what
>> Why should I there There should be a country? Because I believe people deserve I believe people deserve a homeland to call their own, to be surrounded by their own people and ruled by their own. This I like uh a problem nowadays is boomers uh with an ideology that they grew up in a classroom surrounded by people like them. Same traditions, same customs, same backgrounds. All came from the same place. They're denying that same right to future generations pretending as if it means nothing.
>> Yeah.
>> Uh, I think it means everything. I think it's important people grow up surrounded by people that are similar to them. I read a lot of psychology books and you prefer people that are similar to you. You want to find likeness in others. The more different you are, the more diverse people are, the more you tend to draw away.
>> More fighting.
>> More fighting, of course, yeah. Uh, yeah, so I think
>> I I think the uh we call it the Davos Group, right? This uh powerful international elites, millionaires, billionaires, whatever you want to call them. Their view is, you know, they probably agree with you that uh, you know, in a in a place like Ireland with so many people who are ethnically Irish, they are going to want to be around each other. Yeah, you know, if we get rid of that, we get rid of conflict, right? If we if we tell everybody they got to live next to each other, we mix cultures, we mix races, and then in 100 years, everybody is the same, they're just human. Nobody will fight anymore, will they?
>> Yeah.
>> And, you know, my view of that is that's a disgusting planet.
>> Yeah, yeah.
>> I Look, you know, I got we hear it all the time. I got friends of all different racial backgrounds. I got people friends who are trans. You know, live you know, I'm I'm I'm fairly libertarian to a certain degree. I I I don't want anyone to get hurt. Do your thing, just don't hurt others. But, there are issues of of when someone would influence negative things to your country that cause damage. The world I would love to be in, we can get rid of war, we can evolve beyond war, and we don't have to erase what makes the spice of like the spice of the earth.
>> Mhm.
>> That is the fact that we know what Ireland represents here in America and why Americans want to visit Dublin.
>> Yeah.
>> Because it's a pint of Guinness.
>> Mhm.
>> And we have we have a facsimile that is not the same, and we know it. We know that the Guinness in Dublin is 10 times better than the Guinness they give us.
>> Yeah.
>> We want to go there, and we want to experience real Ireland.
>> Yeah.
>> I am terrified of a world where my my child or, you know, future children will be like, "Oh, we're so excited to go visit Dublin." And when they get there, all it is is Hard Rock Cafe, McDonald's, and Starbucks.
>> Yeah, it's all wrong, isn't it?
>> turning into.
>> Yeah, yeah.
>> I will say the funny thing is in the United States, we have every Irish pub is called Paddy's.
>> What?
>> And there's like
>> Passed an O'Malley's on the way here.
>> Did you really? [laughter] We have a Paddy's pub, and it's awesome.
>> Yeah.
>> In in Charlestown.
>> Yeah.
>> I don't want to go to Germany and be served a hot dog.
>> Schnitzel.
>> I want schnitzel.
>> Yeah.
>> I'd like to go to China and have is Peking duck Chinese? I don't know. I don't know. Whatever.
>> I don't know, yeah.
>> I want to go to Thailand and have pad thai.
>> Yeah.
>> The world that these people are building is one where every country just serves the same generic garbage food.
>> Yeah.
>> There's no flavor. There's no interest.
>> And your that world view is much more beautiful than the alternative. Like a German Germany and then you go to a France that is French, a Spain that is Spanish.
>> Yeah.
>> Rather than all of them being one of the same.
>> You know what happens when you uh when you mix all the different paint colors together?
>> Oh, yeah. It changes.
>> you get a sludge. You get like a weird brownish gray.
>> Yeah.
>> And the argument is a rainbow is beautiful for the differences in the colors next to each other.
>> Yeah.
>> Not when you mix it all together and you get just white.
>> Yeah.
>> You know, in on the color spectrum or if you mix all the different paints together and you get blackish brown, a grayish sludge.
>> Mhm.
>> No, we I I I I I I'm terrified of a future in which we we don't have flavor. We don't have in you know, new things to experience, new people to meet. Are we really going to become a world where Beijing and Ireland are functionally identical in every single way from language to television shows?
>> Yeah.
>> That's scary.
>> That's globalization, yeah.
>> Yeah. And I think the attitude of a lot of these elites is that's their vision of the future and they think it's a good thing.
>> Yeah. Plus, we can't compete like Europe can't compete with the likes of India, which has 1.5 billion people. It's just it's impossible. Like if we don't have borders in Ireland and there's no limit to how many people can come in.
>> Yeah.
>> India is a big country with a lot of people. Uh
>> Yeah.
>> You know what I think?
>> Yeah.
>> This all just comes down to everyone's got to have more babies and I understand easier said than done.
>> Mhm.
>> But when women have lots of kids and I mean women have kids.
>> Mhm.
>> voting priorities become for those kids, and I think that's why they they're I say they, but like powerful media political interests are trying to tell women not to have children using social media to do so. Uh, in the United States, the data shows that women with children vote Republican.
>> Yeah.
>> Because the Republican ideology is your kids will be safe, they'll have a better life, and the Democrat is you can party.
>> Yeah.
>> I don't know how we reverse that, but I you know, I will say it does feel like we are kind of There was a I think in Europe, correct me if I'm wrong, but there's been a a big shift towards curtailing a lot of this mass migration now. In we've seen it for a while, but now it seems to be getting more prominent.
>> Yeah. Like Austria's far-right party. I shouldn't even call them far-right party. Our political
>> Moderate conservative party.
>> [laughter]
>> Yeah. Our poll now 40%. Even in Ireland, like the biggest problem with Ireland is there's there's a lot of people on the right that want to stop immigration. We just don't have the political vehicle yet. There's no organized There's very bad organization, and there's no representation, and that's what's it's causing a lot of, you know, people are we we call it politically homeless.
>> Right. They have no one to go to.
>> Wow.
>> Uh, in Ireland.
>> That's pretty wild that
>> Yeah.
>> the for for a country that fought so hard
>> Mhm.
>> for an Irish identity, for independence, for a nation
>> Yeah.
>> to not have a political party that represents the interests of the Irish
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> is weird.
>> It's very strange. Our main parties uh girl called Helen McEntee. This is the way it's gone. Like everyone else, a lot of the European northern European countries now are going back on gender identity. We're speeding up on us. Like Yeah. Yeah. Helen McEntee was the Minister for Children and Youth. She introduced a whole new curriculum teaching young kids about gender identity. There's a book called Busy Bodies, which was introduced by the HSE, and that tells 8-12 year olds, your sex could be male or female. Whichever feel like, you know, you're not a girl, you're not a boy. And it's And it's teaching these the kids. Her husband, which is crazy, sits on the board of AbbVie as the director of market access. And they do puberty blocking hormones.
>> Yeah.
>> And this is This is So
>> I thought I thought in the West like every we were just winning this one. Like it was
>> Yeah, yeah, thought so. I thought you'd think it was over. In Ireland, they're like playing catch-up in you know, from 2020 ideology. Um It's Yeah, it's very strange. They were at a pride festival there this week.
>> We're we're We're just about at at time, but I one one last question for you. Do you ever think uh you think Irish Irish reunification is a is a thing that'll happen or is like Is it largely a moot point at this point because you can freely travel and
>> Yeah. No, I definitely think it's possible. I actually think I think if we had good governance in Ireland and we were strict on immigration, we prioritized our own people, I think it would be much more likely to see a united Ireland because Northern Ireland would look at us and say, "I want a bit of that."
>> I actually think the migration issue may be the biggest catalyst for what reunifies
>> Yeah.
>> Ireland.
>> 100%. If we can get If we can sort the migration issue and prioritize our own people, I can see people in the north voting to
>> weird.
>> Yeah.
>> Hundreds of years of conflict and ideological you know violence and then the northern the the Irish and the Northern Irish are Do they call themselves the Northern Irish or what do they say?
>> They do. Yeah, yeah. Great.
>> look at each other and they're like, you know, we're not so different, huh?
>> Have you ever seen that meme of the two white guys and go
>> Oh, yeah.
>> [laughter]
>> And then the Sudanese guy like Yeah, it's like the two white guys and they're fighting and the Sudanese guy butchers somebody and they're like, "Maybe we're not so different after"
>> after all, yeah.
>> It's but that's that's that's the joke conspiracy theory that you know, the powers that be were like, look, we're never going to stop this fighting between the you know, Northern Ireland and Ireland. We got to just bring in as many non-Irish and then make them band together with a common enemy.
>> Yeah.
