The thing with education is that zoomers were basically miseducated by the state but with the internet the curious one's very often are very knowledgeable and much wiser than the TV generation. The women however are still tv generation and so the maleducation shows, apart from the autistic one's and the Christian's.
As a zoomer I must say I have absolutely no incentive to work within the system and every to destroy it. As a Christian such is a moral imperative on top. I would rather have 12 century living standards than no future, as a young guy sacrifice is a responsibility and the current establishment has earned a blood vendetta from their actions against me and mine, the priority is our existence as a people, not the ability to work within a system that actively hates and persecutes me. Who cares what women think they are creatures of society, they shift to social norms, who cares about money, it is an liability when the bandits come. What we need is organisation, direction and training. The old world is not worth preserving, let's build something new on the models of the past, we need saints and martyrs not self-help advice and platitudes.

Couple of things to mention that Americans seem to miss, our leadership class is literally appealing to your own moral system of rule when they are rude about America, your ruling class hate America so ours act the same to get brownie points, it also always them to act aggressively in a direction that is totally safe for them.
The American government has put massive pressure on both Canada and Europe to remain disarmed, indeed Canada was almost a military state at the end of WW2 (they were basically the crack shock troops of the British Empire, and very proud of it), when they offered that to the Americans your government was very reluctant to have Snow Spartans on their northern border and were quite active in seeing Canada disarmed and reorienting them into a welfare state so their financial commitments would not allow a repeat. Likewise in Europe, it's taken a long time to fully placate the European states (especially France, like seriously, there were colour revolutions over it, ironically with the communists backing the right wing despite the French thinking they were behind it), military security is directly linked to autonomy, if all these states are reliant on US military hegemony they can never pursue independent policy or get out from under American protectorship.
The reason the deep state panicked is that Trump is not undoing stupid ideas, he is knocking over very subtle and well thought out mechanisms and backroom deals because as he has correctly assessed they are at a direct cost the Americans themselves, but the elite don't care about that, the structures are to the benefit of their own wealth and power and the American Imperial project, all the common American does it pay for it (and they'd say they should be thankful, as Europeans and other subject people's pay even more, indeed they've pretty much been drained, a bit like the rust belt but for longer depending on utility, with the borderlands getting an easier time and interior provinces having pretty much been sucked dry).

I was just looking at a Japanese mansion on a Japanese real estate webpage, 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a professional level kitchen, a woodburner and unlike the stereotypes massive rooms, £60,000. No seriously, £60,000 and it's near schools, £60,000 and I don't have to worry about my daughters going outside and that if something happened to them the perpetrator would get a slap on the wrist and sent on their way. £60,000 and I would be living in a functioning country with decent living standards.
My only reason to stay would be to fight for regime change.

No, we don't even know if he was African, all we know is that he was dark skinned (many groups in South Asia are just as dark skinned if not more than Africans and the Portuguese also had contact and brought slaves from them). He was made a retainer, meaning he was in Oda's personal company, he was not a samurai, just as European retainers were not knights by proximity to a Lord (retainers were paid, but samurai were both given more and explicitly recorded as samurai, he was not, from what there is he was basically a domestic servant meant to impress dignitaries with his exoticism and the worldlyness of his Lord by standing near him, western courts would later use Africans as doormen in court for the same reason, as well as the additional court cultural influence from the Ottomans). He never fought, if he had the honour code of the day would not have allowed him to survive the death if his Lord.
This segment covered that the historian making this stuff up is an insult to the academic school of history, frankly not just should he be fired, he should have his academic qualifications stripped from him for disgracing subject with his unethical practices.

Unfortunately the current Japanese government are neo-cons and the American ngos have been taking quite a lot of ground, indeed a lot of the hate for Japan comes directly from them in order to pressure out of touch Japanese politicians to do what they want (basically all the rest of the hate Japan gets is from nationalists in South Korea and mainland China and subversives within the domestic politics of Japan, basically the communists, westernized Japanese and the boomer liberals). Part of this is opening the country up, starting with tourism, and it should be stated that Japan is so peaceful and well ordered that western Europeans are 10x or more likely to be causing whatever kind of trouble than the Japanese are, especially the younger generation who are much less used to what a high trust society even is and act accordingly. For non-western Europeans it is much worse, there have already been signs of German style policing and from what I can glean Rotherham type stuff has already started.
Previous to this plague of tourists the Japanese have a contentious relationship with the US bases, the soldiers of whom have a poor reputation and a very bad history towards Japanese civilians.
The Japanese thought that tourism would boast the economy, this as it happened was GDP brain, the costs in infrastructure do not scale when dealing with people how have a disposable mindset towards their own things let alone others, also they need a major infrastructure redevelopment to deal with these people, and the profits don't flow through the economy much, also they have staff problems as even many Japanese would rather be on welfare than dealing with tourists, since covid many in the sector have not come back.
Most Japanese do not speak a second language, they were taught English in school but it is to the level where you could consider it a government jobs program for people who took English in university, other languages are basically in the realm of high level academics or the book translation industry.
Also the people showing up are largely the anywhere types, which culturally does not fit with Japan even slightly, once the exorcism wears off these people are like Californians in red states.
Japan is great in a lot of ways, but the people they need are rural, conservative and at least 110 iq or so just for them to hold their weight. Unless the Japanese wise up politically, kick out American influence, realign slightly more towards China, or more likely India (who they have very good relations with), and start being extremely discriminating about who they let in, then they will basically good the way that much of eastern Europe currently is, in that they held out longer, but not enough. In the more likely situation of them being politically inept, they should at least preserve the people by blocking all immigration and anything that becomes immigration the moment they can slip away from having to comply with the term on the visa.
Japan has a lot good about it, namely that they have a culture (even if one not great under the hood), they have a functioning state (even if a liberalized one) and they have cheap rural property (which honestly might be worth it under basically any circumstances if you can get the opportunity, a second hand home is in the tens of thousands of dollars range, and the livings costs are low as well).

Totally disagree with Harry, our ancestors had 12 kids apiece, some had even more. The difference was they they didn't have the same fixation on the material comforts, if they had to all live to a room and use wash basins they did so, family was their security.
We need people, preferably many from our best, we need children who are born into a deep culture and raised into a firm structure. Look at the Ottoman empire, it was the Clanish Christian's who survived, and when faced with destruction they were the only one's to survive. The maniots are a model, not the current order.
This is not a matter of comfort but of survival, he who gives up security for freedom will end up with neither.

@slypork5030 I don't even have much ability to respond to that, it's too unhinged for me to comprehend. Harry is from what I've seen a fairly undeveloped thinker, he is inoffensive at his most profound and tends to flip flop, basically he's young and doesn't know what he should think. The LE are unwatchable mostly when you get several of the worst contributors team up to talk either about something inane or something they don't understand. The Callum Harry combo is always strong as they have good chemistry, Carl carries anything he's on, Dan is likeable and Beau has very clear principles even if he is a bit of a wig and can go off on one talking about personal takes of limited relevance. The controversial ones are Josh (because he's bland), Stelios (because he's using the platform to single handedly fight a rear-guard action for liberalism, also he's way less profound than the others at the studio give him credit for), Charlie (because he's new and hasn't given people a reason to like him, It's probably not a good sign that I can't say more than that because I avoid him) and Connor (because he's in a constant flame war with the socially liberal side of the viewership, as well as seeming a bit superficial).

The idea that crimes are simply not reported while true to a certain extent fails to account for the fact that it is as much if not more a fact in western countries. Japanese police are notorious for not intervening in domestic situations and for only going ahead with cases they know they will win, but it's not exactly like western police even reach that level. Japanese police have patrols and numerous local stations, this is not a capability held by British police.
Also people have a very romantic image of the yakuza, they are not nice people, the reputation for honour is mostly media creation, they are mostly of foreign background, or are burakumin, they are not sympathetic to the common people, most of the nastiness in the underbelly comes from them. Even now many of the problems with the host clubs and sex industry come from them.
While they were less open and brazen than the newcomers that is because they knew the game better and had more extensive connections. They are used that to mostly move into legally grey but morally repulsive areas with the recent crackdowns, but they have always been scum and still are.
We have to remember that a big purpose for the western media is slandering other systems, if they have a narrative it is almost certain to be a pack of lies. The purpose of saying that Japan doesn't have lower crimerates is the same as saying Britain has no native people, it is to justify the power of our existing regime, nothing more nothing less. In Japan's case there are games journalist levels of knowledge, Wikipedia is a substantially better source for Japan than the BBC or Times, western journalists know nothing about the country and make no effort to try, when they talk about it they have information that is decades out of date or they picked up from movies, even those who live in Japan basically make no effort to get deeper than tourist level and even then the average tourist is probably much high iq and picks up more.
I say this with real frustration, as someone who has tried to research the Japanese education system, these people are lazy and plain old dumb, they will talk about things that were perceived back in the 80's and forget to mention utterly vital education reforms that have transformed the whole system. The vast majority of content in western media and academic is cope or whining, and usually archaic in actual content. You will frankly learn much more about Japan from the Japanese themselves, but be ready as they are quite insulated from the west, and tend to have a very naive view of developments here due to not really understanding the underlying logic, a bit like a child looking at a drunken father and thinking that as an adult he must know what he is doing, they tend to assume we aren't just straight up idiotic with our policies and political structures.

Rural property in Japan is cheap as it's being depopulated by movement to cities and an aging population. It is perfectly good real estate, there is plentiful food, cheap prices and a large deer population, you also will live in a state that does not bear malice towards you.
I'm perfectly happy to do everything in my power to pull the ladder up behind me, the japs will become sick of hearing about the grooming gangs and innately evil nature of liberalism. Frankly I think leftists should be deported if possible, but encouraging fellow White Christians to settle is a good thing, we have to survive somehow, and we won't in states actively seeking our destruction, as said the only motivation I have to stay would be working towards the destruction of my enemies and reclamation of my homeland, but one has to be realistic about opportunities, how likely is a revolution in our immediate future, do we even have the organisational structures in place necessary to secure our aims, prospects seem grim and work fruitless. Better to relocate and consolidate.

@Jds-lq4uo I've been in the community long enough to remember that, the very fact I can say that is all you need to know, Carl was a lib back in the day, everyone knows this, but he has been just as prominent in renouncing it and trying to pull others out with him. I would cite the distributist or AA as an influence, and not really fuentes, I'm honestly surprised that people listen to him, he's about as helpful as tate, though less objectionable on a personal level. Clearly he has loyal followers though, and that at least is a virtue if nothing else, even if I myself find it all very tiring.

@voller340 My view is 100% that Europe increasing military capabilities is a good thing, I want the people's of Europe to survive and with current policies going they won't.
On the America point there's a book called 'Generation 68' by kerry bolton that goes into how the right was barking up the wrong tree for most of the cold war, with the soviet union being seen as reactionary and socially conservative by the american deep state, and the student movements and the like receiving American backing and funding, not soviet. They were very active and there was a lot of money involved (like incomprehensible amounts), and got up to insane stuff like paying off respected academics to give bad reviews to right wing books, or running a radio show in California telling students how to make and use different drugs.
Though McCarthy had an almost prefect record for finding communists (mostly because he went after people who had been very open about it) according to the KGB archives, he like most republicans didn't understand that the most radical revolutionaries were both within the American system and violently opposed to the soviet union, being internationalists who had been refused a world government at the end of the war by the soviets themselves (who saw it as a suggestion of global American empire), and were socially radical in a way the soviets had only been for a short period in the early 1920's (because unsurprisingly it started breaking apart the society at it's seams).
Trump is a great thing, but I doubt he will be able to do enough, America needs consistent and strong leadership to root these people out.

On B's comments, Luther and Calvin were heretics, Luther was a pawn of the German Princes in their struggle for autonomy within the Holy Roman Empire, he was also behind the belief that all must come from the Bible, ironically just contemporarising the context of interpretation and making it so that the arguments over basics would literally never end, on top of this he tried to edit the Bible to suit his own theological interpretation and married a Nun, breaking two oaths of chastity in one, if you know much of medieval European culture and society you will know that oathbreaking was in a way almost as bad as outright apostasy and practically guarantees a place in hell without considerable extenuating circumstances.
Calvinism other than being rootless and contemporary is the theological origin of progressivism and liberalism, they have an odious history due to their role is justifying the political destruction of Europe under the belief that the only valid King is Christ (that is not what the title King of Kings means at all if you know the history of the title) and they themselves should hold the secular power. Also both Luther and Calvin were not fans of natural sciences, philosophy or pre-Christian culture and if they had had their way those would have been extinguished.
The guest was wrong about Trinitarian mass being ancient, it is itself a reformation creation, a standardisation specifically. Before the reformation there was considerable liturgical variety, in England the Sarum rite was predominant, which was an English expression of the Latin rite dating into Anglo-Saxon times. The common man did not speak Latin, but he did have considerable theological understanding and interest, as theology was of primary interest to the common man rather than politics, Bible sermons were not in Latin, they would hear what church fathers and important theologians thought of passages, often the messages were directly relevant and they were usually far more in-depth than what we get now. Bibles in vulgar languages did exist and most people were literate in their own language, but street preachers and defrocked priests were more common than public access libraries and tended to cause trouble.
Medieval people weren't stupid, they were highly legalistic and cultured, the tenants of Christianity were deeply rooted in everyday life. Something that would not be the case after the reformation, theological understanding and interest greatly declined, many Churches were in a state of disrepair for a century or more, people supported the Church financially due to legal obligation but most energy was in the radical reformed movements that periodically swept public interest rather than the Anglican Church which mostly just continued on with state backing (and suspicion due to monarchist leanings and Catholic holdovers, which a largely non-conformist political elite did not like at all).

Western courts would use African doormen to look impressive and worldly themselves, as well as in a trend of following ottoman court fashions. A retainer was a concept in the west, and as in Japan proximity to a Lord did not make you a Knight, it was a specific title with corresponding duties and privileges, knights were expensive, very expensive, even most men performing their role in battle did not have the title, to give it to the domestic help would be silly, especially if their role was to stand around and look impressive, Knights had land grants to manage and training to undertake. Likewise with samurai, your swordbearer was needed to carry your sword, it was a pain if he had other duties, his wage was so that he would focus on that, also as he carried the sword him knowing how to fight was of no benefit, he could assassinate you with it, even if he couldn't fight he could be used as a shield. Usually though it was a position for young noble boys, they would learn court manners and rituals and proximity to a Lord was an honour, it was a period before they went on to other duties. Lord Oda liked exotic things and this was likely an example, in his youth he was mocked for foreign and extravagant dress and into his manhood he had a preference for Learned Christians, he was known as the demon king because he did not get on with the Buddhist monastic orders and had a full on war with some of them, being merciless even with the unarmed pilgrims and faithful, regardless of sex or age. If he had lived he might well have converted, he was planning to invade China, much like Alexander the Great's father, he unified Japan and was then going to invade Korea, his successors only went as far as Korea as his heir died in the coup.

About the massacre, it was 1919 and a British officer got it into his head that there was going to be another mutiny, he declared a curfew....during an important religious festival, when everyone ignore it he took over some Gurkha troops (likely gurkhas as they had a reputation for not questioning orders no matter how questionable or suicidal they were, and with what he wanted to do British troops likely would have detained him and native refused) snuck up to a party of civilians celebrating the festival ordered his men to open fire, over 100 died and probably more as the Indians had a habit of taking bodies off for burial without telling record keepers, he was arrested, big surprise, but the injustice was that he wasn't shot for it with lead to rumours among the Indians that he was acting under orders (he wasn't it was just a legal travesty). This lead to a huge amount of disillusionment with British rule and was in many ways the kickstart of the independence movement outside of small westernized middle class circles, before it their was generally little dissatisfaction with British rule as it was seen as legitimate and the Indians had a very high estimate of the fairness and impartiality of British law, the massacre basically blew that out of the water and politicised a good deal of the population who had before been totally apathetic or naturally loyal.

@ShermanistDruid I'm a Christian, I want civilisation back, not to erase it in the pursuit of a false utopia. Liberalism has destroyed us, we can not build things back up with it. That said as an Englishman I support the traditional liberties of Englishmen, but you can have a look at how many of them are enforced today if you want to understand the viability of liberal democracy. As I'm sure that will be misinterpreted, I'm not against people running their own communities, but I am against an unaccountable parliament running the country, what we have now may conform to the structure of liberalism but it most certainly in conflict with the intentions, unless you are a French revolutionary type. To preserve freedom it is necessary to kill liberalism, I am not rejecting the ideals of liberalism (for the most part) but its claims of being able to achieve them. Part of this is that the ideology came about as a justification of the supremacy of parliament in the first place using rights never given by parliament but only degraded by them, it's basically a continuation of the arguments of the English civil war and glorious revolution. Given their track record I'm surprised the nation survived them this long.
