not this is going to happen there's a 214 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:23,360 separate issue which I thought about a 215 00:09:27,670 --> 00:09:24,890 lot more since their article about 216 00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:27,680 whether this would be a good thing and 217 00:09:31,030 --> 00:09:29,510 that's what sends chills up people's 218 00:09:32,530 --> 00:09:31,040 spines is the idea of this would 219 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:32,540 actually could be a very bad thing and I 220 00:09:35,740 --> 00:09:33,890 have an argument about that which I 221 00:09:37,390 --> 00:09:35,750 think about why it would be a good thing 222 00:09:39,460 --> 00:09:37,400 which we can talk about if you want but 223 00:09:41,380 --> 00:09:39,470 that's not doing the article itself the 224 00:09:43,269 --> 00:09:41,390 article is really saying whether or not 225 00:09:45,460 --> 00:09:43,279 we would want this to happen it's going 226 00:09:48,070 --> 00:09:45,470 to happen and in a way I think the 227 00:09:50,410 --> 00:09:48,080 easiest way to kind of state the 228 00:09:52,060 --> 00:09:50,420 argument is that it actually occurred to 229 00:09:53,980 --> 00:09:52,070 me literally in the shower one morning 230 00:09:56,710 --> 00:09:53,990 when I thought to myself you know in a 231 00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:56,720 thousand years it was inconceivable to 232 00:10:00,550 --> 00:09:58,130 me that we would still have a world of 233 00:10:02,860 --> 00:10:00,560 anarchic States in or a world of Anarchy 234 00:10:05,019 --> 00:10:02,870 with 190 separate sovereign states 235 00:10:06,490 --> 00:10:05,029 it just seemed insane that that was 236 00:10:08,410 --> 00:10:06,500 probably the case a thousand years from 237 00:10:10,329 --> 00:10:08,420 now that in a thousand years we would 238 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:10,339 certainly have a world state if we human 239 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:13,010 being survived so in that sense if you 240 00:10:17,199 --> 00:10:15,290 give me enough time it does seem like a 241 00:10:19,980 --> 00:10:17,209 world state is inevitable and so then I 242 00:10:23,510 --> 00:10:19,990 wrote the paper chime go ahead I'm sorry 243 00:10:25,220 --> 00:10:23,520 there's a certain trajectory there the 244 00:10:26,690 --> 00:10:25,230 I was going to say obvious but it isn't 245 00:10:29,450 --> 00:10:26,700 obvious because I think you did a great 246 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:29,460 job of pointing that out I mean so talk 247 00:10:32,990 --> 00:10:31,410 about that I mean we are a hundred and 248 00:10:35,780 --> 00:10:33,000 ninety and we didn't used to be a 249 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:35,790 hundred and ninety I mean well I think 250 00:10:41,750 --> 00:10:38,130 if you think about the trends in the 251 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:41,760 system and actually one of the data 252 00:10:48,050 --> 00:10:44,730 summary data it's more info respective 253 00:10:50,990 --> 00:10:48,060 somewhat speculation but I quote this 254 00:10:53,570 --> 00:10:51,000 one author Robert Quintero who made an 255 00:10:55,700 --> 00:10:53,580 estimate that in like three thousand BC 256 00:10:57,650 --> 00:10:55,710 there were something like 600,000 257 00:11:00,740 --> 00:10:57,660 independent political units in the world 258 00:11:02,450 --> 00:11:00,750 most of which are like tribes and hardly 259 00:11:05,750 --> 00:11:02,460 states at all that they were separate 260 00:11:07,850 --> 00:11:05,760 sovereign entities and this four 261 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:07,860 thousand of them and now we have one 262 00:11:12,140 --> 00:11:10,410 hundred and ninety so if you look at 263 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:12,150 that if you plot that trajectory on a 264 00:11:16,990 --> 00:11:15,330 graph what you see is a tremendous 265 00:11:19,970 --> 00:11:17,000 consolidation of political authority 266 00:11:22,460 --> 00:11:19,980 worldwide over the ensuing millennia 267 00:11:25,700 --> 00:11:22,470 so we project that a bit further and you 268 00:11:27,560 --> 00:11:25,710 end up with one so it seems to me that 269 00:11:29,810 --> 00:11:27,570 there has been an increase in the number 270 00:11:31,250 --> 00:11:29,820 of states since world war two with the 271 00:11:34,370 --> 00:11:31,260 colonization and the breakup of the 272 00:11:36,860 --> 00:11:34,380 Soviet Union in Yugoslavia and so on but 273 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:36,870 overall I think the trend historically 274 00:11:40,490 --> 00:11:38,850 is toward fewer and fewer and fewer 275 00:11:43,250 --> 00:11:40,500 states and if you're at in that 276 00:11:45,560 --> 00:11:43,260 globalization the internet climate 277 00:11:47,270 --> 00:11:45,570 change that war between states is 278 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:47,280 becoming irrational there are just many 279 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:50,850 many many factors that make the idea of 280 00:11:55,460 --> 00:11:52,130 the separate sovereign state 281 00:11:58,100 --> 00:11:55,470 increasingly silly basically what's the 282 00:12:01,040 --> 00:11:58,110 point quickly if you can't go over a 283 00:12:02,780 --> 00:12:01,050 couple of those so globalization means 284 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:02,790 the interdependence and 285 00:12:08,630 --> 00:12:05,130 interconnectedness of economies and that 286 00:12:11,630 --> 00:12:08,640 makes it less likely that you go and 287 00:12:13,730 --> 00:12:11,640 bomb your partner and it's obvious to 288 00:12:16,310 --> 00:12:13,740 anyone who's a little bit older like I 289 00:12:18,830 --> 00:12:16,320 am that you say gee you know 20 years 290 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:18,840 ago you could think about invading China 291 00:12:22,580 --> 00:12:20,850 or being at war with China now you go 292 00:12:24,710 --> 00:12:22,590 jeez you know it would be destructive to 293 00:12:26,300 --> 00:12:24,720 our economy and their economy less 294 00:12:27,770 --> 00:12:26,310 likely to happen not say it wouldn't 295 00:12:30,050 --> 00:12:27,780 happen but it wouldn't or if you look at 296 00:12:32,030 --> 00:12:30,060 Canada or Mexico you go gosh were so 297 00:12:34,730 --> 00:12:32,040 interdependent less likely to happen 298 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:34,740 internet more connected less likely to 299 00:12:38,660 --> 00:12:35,730 happen 300 00:12:40,070 --> 00:12:38,670 right so all these things are pointing 301 00:12:41,780 --> 00:12:40,080 in the direction you're saying that as 302 00:12:45,110 --> 00:12:41,790 you become more connected you're less 303 00:12:46,730 --> 00:12:45,120 likely to go to war with people yes and 304 00:12:48,980 --> 00:12:46,740 you could add in other part of democracy 305 00:12:50,780 --> 00:12:48,990 the so-called Democratic peace 306 00:12:53,570 --> 00:12:50,790 you know democracy's hardly ever go to 307 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:53,580 war with each other in the growth of 308 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:56,130 international institutions now all these 309 00:12:59,690 --> 00:12:58,650 things just make war or less light but 310 00:13:01,070 --> 00:12:59,700 if they don't necessarily mean that 311 00:13:04,010 --> 00:13:01,080 states are going to come together and 312 00:13:06,470 --> 00:13:04,020 form a global state but I guess the 313 00:13:07,220 --> 00:13:06,480 point is is that if if war is off the 314 00:13:11,090 --> 00:13:07,230 table 315 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:11,100 and if you know exercising national 316 00:13:14,630 --> 00:13:12,810 sovereignty in the world economy to 317 00:13:17,210 --> 00:13:14,640 resist this globalization is off the 318 00:13:19,430 --> 00:13:17,220 table then what is the point really at 319 00:13:22,010 --> 00:13:19,440 the end of the day every taining 320 00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:22,020 sovereignty I mean the way I define 321 00:13:26,660 --> 00:13:24,570 sovereignty the way I think about it 322 00:13:28,250 --> 00:13:26,670 especially now is that at the end of the 323 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:28,260 day sovereignty is the right to kill 324 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:31,410 foreigners with no accountability it's 325 00:13:34,490 --> 00:13:33,330 the right to invade other countries if 326 00:13:38,630 --> 00:13:34,500 you think it's in your national security 327 00:13:41,630 --> 00:13:38,640 interest with no accountability and it 328 00:13:44,930 --> 00:13:41,640 seems to me that that right is 329 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:44,940 increasingly obsolete or pointless in a 330 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:46,290 sense because who's going to do that 331 00:13:51,140 --> 00:13:49,410 anyway and I would say that right has no 332 00:13:52,850 --> 00:13:51,150 moral foundation and that gets to the 333 00:13:54,740 --> 00:13:52,860 more normative argument about is this a 334 00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:54,750 good thing I don't think there's any 335 00:14:00,320 --> 00:13:57,570 justification actually for one group of 336 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:00,330 people having the right to invade a 337 00:14:03,530 --> 00:14:01,890 foreign country if they decide assume 338 00:14:06,980 --> 00:14:03,540 their national interest and kill 339 00:14:10,370 --> 00:14:06,990 foreigners with no accountability that 340 00:14:11,510 --> 00:14:10,380 might set off you know wild debates and 341 00:14:13,850 --> 00:14:11,520 heated debates 342 00:14:15,410 --> 00:14:13,860 I think what's refreshing about what 343 00:14:19,490 --> 00:14:15,420 you're doing is you're stepping back now 344 00:14:24,260 --> 00:14:19,500 okay we can get into a big fight about a 345 00:14:26,780 --> 00:14:24,270 particular you know Libya or any Syria 346 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:26,790 today or some hot issue today but if you 347 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:29,730 just step back and say as Americans 348 00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:33,210 let's say our values would be at their 349 00:14:38,510 --> 00:14:35,760 core that we don't do that kind of stuff 350 00:14:40,310 --> 00:14:38,520 so even the folks who are saying that 351 00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:40,320 this was an exceptional situation where 352 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:42,960 we had to do it yada-yada-yada still 353 00:14:49,129 --> 00:14:45,090 they would agree that that is not within 354 00:14:51,460 --> 00:14:49,139 our basic moral value system too 355 00:14:55,519 --> 00:14:51,470 to do those kind of things right is that 356 00:14:57,530 --> 00:14:55,529 yeah I think if you are a liberal in the 357 00:15:00,199 --> 00:14:57,540 broad sense of bleeding and human rights 358 00:15:03,530 --> 00:15:00,209 and all that and if you are committed to 359 00:15:06,019 --> 00:15:03,540 democracy in the broad sense the people 360 00:15:10,519 --> 00:15:06,029 should have the ability to hold power 361 00:15:13,519 --> 00:15:10,529 over them accountable then it's very 362 00:15:15,319 --> 00:15:13,529 hard it seems to me to justify separate 363 00:15:17,900 --> 00:15:15,329 groups retaining the right to kill 364 00:15:19,970 --> 00:15:17,910 foreigners violating their human rights 365 00:15:22,039 --> 00:15:19,980 with no accountability violating 366 00:15:24,319 --> 00:15:22,049 democracy their democracy with no 367 00:15:26,869 --> 00:15:24,329 accountability it's just very hard from 368 00:15:29,599 --> 00:15:26,879 a Western but it's not just the Western 369 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:29,609 he creates an increasingly global set of 370 00:15:34,699 --> 00:15:32,850 moral values to justify that kind of 371 00:15:36,499 --> 00:15:34,709 sovereignty and the article that I'd 372 00:15:39,919 --> 00:15:36,509 like to write that follows up on this 373 00:15:42,259 --> 00:15:39,929 world state paper I want to call Anarchy 374 00:15:45,229 --> 00:15:42,269 as despotism you know everyone says that 375 00:15:47,629 --> 00:15:45,239 a world state would be despotic and a 376 00:15:49,970 --> 00:15:47,639 totalitarian state actually the current 377 00:15:51,979 --> 00:15:49,980 system of anarchy in my view is a 378 00:15:54,409 --> 00:15:51,989 despotism because States can do whatever 379 00:15:57,650 --> 00:15:54,419 they want to to each other wouldn't it 380 00:15:59,090 --> 00:15:57,660 no accountability so I would like to 381 00:16:00,530 --> 00:15:59,100 turn the argument around in effect and 382 00:16:02,629 --> 00:16:00,540 put their onus on the defenders of the 383 00:16:04,879 --> 00:16:02,639 sovereign state to to defend the right 384 00:16:07,129 --> 00:16:04,889 to kill foreigners unilaterally I don't 385 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:07,139 see how you can do that let's talk about 386 00:16:10,519 --> 00:16:08,730 that because it's it's it's interesting 387 00:16:12,229 --> 00:16:10,529 and there's two angles I'd like to 388 00:16:14,780 --> 00:16:12,239 address is one is the folks who are 389 00:16:16,789 --> 00:16:14,790 upfront about that argument and our 390 00:16:18,439 --> 00:16:16,799 arguing against you but the other that 391 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:18,449 that you addressed I thought which is 392 00:16:26,119 --> 00:16:22,730 really refreshing is the kind of covert 393 00:16:30,530 --> 00:16:26,129 opposition to that so if we accept the 394 00:16:33,229 --> 00:16:30,540 idea that governments act in secret at 395 00:16:37,309 --> 00:16:33,239 times and we have plenty of evidence for 396 00:16:40,009 --> 00:16:37,319 that and black operations and we now 397 00:16:40,999 --> 00:16:40,019 know that people were whether they are 398 00:16:43,909 --> 00:16:41,009 today or not 399 00:16:46,340 --> 00:16:43,919 we're abducted and taken and tortured 400 00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:46,350 and those other things happen that don't 401 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:48,809 exactly fit with our values and then if 402 00:16:53,900 --> 00:16:50,970 you take that by extension like a lot of 403 00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:53,910 people do and are serious about looking 404 00:16:58,039 --> 00:16:55,529 at and saying you know there is this 405 00:17:01,699 --> 00:16:58,049 shadow government that's in play and 406 00:17:03,090 --> 00:17:01,709 that then becomes you know just a huge 407 00:17:05,370 --> 00:17:03,100 fear factor 408 00:17:07,439 --> 00:17:05,380 in terms of what you're proposing a 409 00:17:09,150 --> 00:17:07,449 one-world State and yours like jeez 410 00:17:10,439 --> 00:17:09,160 that's exactly what those guys want that 411 00:17:12,449 --> 00:17:10,449 we're playing into their hands kind of 412 00:17:15,540 --> 00:17:12,459 thing and I don't need you to go down 413 00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:15,550 that whole path but I think and even if 414 00:17:21,150 --> 00:17:17,680 you go down that path a little bit you 415 00:17:24,540 --> 00:17:21,160 present some rather compelling arguments 416 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:24,550 why even if we do even if we accept the 417 00:17:31,190 --> 00:17:27,490 darkest scenario there we still may be 418 00:17:34,890 --> 00:17:31,200 better off with the one-world state so 419 00:17:37,140 --> 00:17:34,900 do you want to touch on that yeah I 420 00:17:38,700 --> 00:17:37,150 think that's right I think that well 421 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:38,710 first I think that we would only get to 422 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:42,010 a world state voluntarily if you think 423 00:17:48,330 --> 00:17:45,490 about America ten years ago was at the 424 00:17:50,430 --> 00:17:48,340 height of its power and no state in 425 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:50,440 world history has ever had such a 426 00:17:54,810 --> 00:17:52,210 preponderance of power as United States 427 00:17:56,430 --> 00:17:54,820 did ten years ago and there's no way 428 00:17:58,440 --> 00:17:56,440 that ten years ago the US could have 429 00:18:01,080 --> 00:17:58,450 conquered the world and subjected it to 430 00:18:02,580 --> 00:18:01,090 a world stayed under American control so 431 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:02,590 if it didn't or couldn't have happened 432 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:04,290 ten years ago it's never going to happen 433 00:18:08,940 --> 00:18:07,570 violently it seems to me so if there's 434 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:08,950 going to be a world day it's only going 435 00:18:12,750 --> 00:18:10,930 to happen through a democratic very 436 00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:12,760 incremental process where everybody's 437 00:18:18,060 --> 00:18:15,130 rights get written into their global 438 00:18:20,570 --> 00:18:18,070 Constitution at least at least on the at 439 00:18:23,010 --> 00:18:20,580 least on the surface or at least quasi 440 00:18:24,450 --> 00:18:23,020 democratic I mean right people would 441 00:18:26,850 --> 00:18:24,460 argue that but I mean if you look at the 442 00:18:29,790 --> 00:18:26,860 the EU for example there's a lot of 443 00:18:32,460 --> 00:18:29,800 shenanigans and a lot of back-channel 444 00:18:34,460 --> 00:18:32,470 deals and all that but it basically kind 445 00:18:36,930 --> 00:18:34,470 of works right 446 00:18:38,370 --> 00:18:36,940 yeah that's a good point that it this 447 00:18:40,650 --> 00:18:38,380 would be on the surface it would be 448 00:18:42,780 --> 00:18:40,660 democratic and liberal probably so there 449 00:18:45,570 --> 00:18:42,790 is a you know the deep state idea that 450 00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:45,580 behind all this there would be some more 451 00:18:50,940 --> 00:18:48,370 almost criminal elements that would be 452 00:18:53,490 --> 00:18:50,950 you know dealing with dissenters and 453 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:53,500 that kind of thing and and I guess that 454 00:18:57,900 --> 00:18:56,530 is a worry but it seems to me there's 455 00:18:59,610 --> 00:18:57,910 much and what you were just saying it's 456 00:19:01,200 --> 00:18:59,620 exactly how I would put it actually 457 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:01,210 which is that there's a much better 458 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:03,970 chance of dealing with that element that 459 00:19:09,690 --> 00:19:07,330 problem in a single global structure 460 00:19:12,470 --> 00:19:09,700 where you have sort of a global 461 00:19:15,380 --> 00:19:12,480 democracy then there is you know 462 00:19:17,630 --> 00:19:15,390 world 197 sovereignties where nobody is 463 00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:17,640 in charge there is no pretense of 464 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:19,590 democracy there's no pretense of global 465 00:19:25,159 --> 00:19:22,290 law and where the strong can basically 466 00:19:26,990 --> 00:19:25,169 do whatever they want and the weak will 467 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:27,000 suffer what they must you know two 468 00:19:33,230 --> 00:19:28,770 quotes acidities I think are compared a 469 00:19:38,150 --> 00:19:33,240 phrase - acidities okay so one is that 470 00:19:40,700 --> 00:19:38,160 there's a forced democracy to the one 471 00:19:43,669 --> 00:19:40,710 world state at least on the surface 472 00:19:46,310 --> 00:19:43,679 level and in a lot of ways as we see in 473 00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:46,320 our current government the surface level 474 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:48,030 counts you know I mean you there's still 475 00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:50,850 some accountability no matter how bleak 476 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:53,130 of a view you have of the situation 477 00:19:58,460 --> 00:19:55,890 there is still some accountability to 478 00:20:01,340 --> 00:19:58,470 common values and principles that we all 479 00:20:03,289 --> 00:20:01,350 share and you're saying that point one 480 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:03,299 would be there would be that same 481 00:20:08,510 --> 00:20:05,850 accountability to this common common 482 00:20:11,930 --> 00:20:08,520 liberal democratic ideal set that we all 483 00:20:14,330 --> 00:20:11,940 hold what are the other reasons why you 484 00:20:18,590 --> 00:20:14,340 think this might the one world state 485 00:20:22,340 --> 00:20:18,600 might be better despite all the possible 486 00:20:24,110 --> 00:20:22,350 problems with it well just picking them 487 00:20:26,030 --> 00:20:24,120 before I answer that I may just go back 488 00:20:28,909 --> 00:20:26,040 to your point a second ago I think that 489 00:20:31,850 --> 00:20:28,919 part of the motivation here I'm a 490 00:20:34,250 --> 00:20:31,860 normative side on the moral side is to 491 00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:34,260 hold the power of very powerful States 492 00:20:40,130 --> 00:20:36,809 accountable so especially the power of 493 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:40,140 the US you know I was an Iraqi citizen 494 00:20:46,730 --> 00:20:44,010 in 2003 I would be really angry at what 495 00:20:49,010 --> 00:20:46,740 happened the u.s. coming in I mean 496 00:20:52,669 --> 00:20:49,020 Saddam Hussein was obviously a very bad 497 00:20:54,409 --> 00:20:52,679 guy but many many Iraqis suffered 498 00:20:56,659 --> 00:20:54,419 horribly as a result of that invasion 499 00:20:59,840 --> 00:20:56,669 which I think everybody agrees was a 500 00:21:02,270 --> 00:20:59,850 catastrophic mistake in almost every 501 00:21:04,789 --> 00:21:02,280 sense and there's no accountability 502 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:04,799 about it and it's not just America it's 503 00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:07,290 China it's Russia all these powerful 504 00:21:11,180 --> 00:21:08,910 states can basically do whatever they 505 00:21:13,580 --> 00:21:11,190 want to small our countries 506 00:21:15,140 --> 00:21:13,590 if those powerful states just just to be 507 00:21:17,299 --> 00:21:15,150 in their national interest so the idea 508 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:17,309 here is to hold the powerful States 509 00:21:23,260 --> 00:21:20,970 accountable to the weaker ones who 510 00:21:24,580 --> 00:21:23,270 otherwise have no recourse 511 00:21:27,549 --> 00:21:24,590 now to go back to your question about 512 00:21:31,690 --> 00:21:27,559 I'm sorry I lost the last part of that 513 00:21:34,540 --> 00:21:31,700 which was you added that in and anyone 514 00:21:36,970 --> 00:21:34,550 can just look at the world stage that we 515 00:21:40,330 --> 00:21:36,980 have and right now if you want to do 516 00:21:43,180 --> 00:21:40,340 something bad you just run off in some 517 00:21:46,270 --> 00:21:43,190 little country in Eastern Europe and you 518 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:46,280 just throw some money around and land 519 00:21:50,260 --> 00:21:48,290 the black helicopters and go do whatever 520 00:21:52,740 --> 00:21:50,270 you want we have documented proof of 521 00:21:55,390 --> 00:21:52,750 that where you can set up your little 522 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:55,400 interrogation cell or you can go there 523 00:22:00,850 --> 00:21:57,650 get a group of bandits together and go 524 00:22:03,220 --> 00:22:00,860 so you're right it's hard to imagine how 525 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:03,230 there could be any less accountability 526 00:22:07,270 --> 00:22:06,050 than there is now but so let me lead you 527 00:22:09,669 --> 00:22:07,280 into this other point that I took out of 528 00:22:14,260 --> 00:22:09,679 your talking it really struck me as you 529 00:22:18,250 --> 00:22:14,270 talked about just scale and how you know 530 00:22:22,230 --> 00:22:18,260 that even the the scaling of things up 531 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:22,240 to this one world state would have some 532 00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:25,490 advantages for individuality and 533 00:22:30,730 --> 00:22:28,130 interview individual freedoms and rights 534 00:22:31,870 --> 00:22:30,740 and that do you want to talk to that and 535 00:22:33,810 --> 00:22:31,880 am I getting that right do you know what 536 00:22:37,210 --> 00:22:33,820 I'm talking about 537 00:22:39,610 --> 00:22:37,220 well I would have advantages in the 538 00:22:42,220 --> 00:22:39,620 sense that certain kinds it would be 539 00:22:44,890 --> 00:22:42,230 much harder to violate the rights of 540 00:22:46,330 --> 00:22:44,900 some people namely foreigners because 541 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:46,340 there wouldn't be any more foreigners 542 00:22:51,549 --> 00:22:49,970 right everybody would be domestic on the 543 00:22:54,010 --> 00:22:51,559 other hand I do agree with critics of 544 00:22:56,650 --> 00:22:54,020 the world estate idea that you know in a 545 00:22:58,390 --> 00:22:56,660 world of 10 billion people the MA you 546 00:23:01,419 --> 00:22:58,400 know a democratic election you know one 547 00:23:03,070 --> 00:23:01,429 vote doesn't count for a lot and so 548 00:23:05,799 --> 00:23:03,080 there is a scale problem in that sense 549 00:23:07,330 --> 00:23:05,809 and you know my personal view is that if 550 00:23:09,220 --> 00:23:07,340 there's going to be a world state it 551 00:23:09,940 --> 00:23:09,230 should be a decentralized as absolutely 552 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:09,950 possible 553 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:13,610 so that individual votes in tomorrow 554 00:23:19,270 --> 00:23:17,450 because you matter that's what I heard 555 00:23:22,740 --> 00:23:19,280 that's what I heard in your one talk 556 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:22,750 that struck me is that you were I think 557 00:23:29,710 --> 00:23:25,610 saying that there's an inevitability to 558 00:23:31,540 --> 00:23:29,720 that multiculturalism remaining intact 559 00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:31,550 because that's a basic need that people 560 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:34,190 have and that both in order to govern 561 00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:36,530 you would have that in the same way we 562 00:23:39,250 --> 00:23:37,130 have 563 00:23:41,409 --> 00:23:39,260 50 states and my wife is from Alabama 564 00:23:44,890 --> 00:23:41,419 and you go to Alabama and they've 565 00:23:48,100 --> 00:23:44,900 retained some cultural values and 566 00:23:49,630 --> 00:23:48,110 beliefs that pacify them to the extent 567 00:23:50,590 --> 00:23:49,640 that they say okay you know we can kind 568 00:23:52,570 --> 00:23:50,600 of live in this thing 569 00:23:54,340 --> 00:23:52,580 you also pointed out India where there's 570 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:54,350 a hundred different languages in the 571 00:23:59,850 --> 00:23:56,090 country and yet you know we can still 572 00:24:04,570 --> 00:23:59,860 have a democracy that works and we can 573 00:24:08,890 --> 00:24:04,580 recognize that we can't impose this kind 574 00:24:11,970 --> 00:24:08,900 of universal cultural overlay on it so 575 00:24:14,409 --> 00:24:11,980 that it really can work in both ways 576 00:24:16,419 --> 00:24:14,419 yeah actually the India example I'm glad 577 00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:16,429 you mentioned that because there's over 578 00:24:21,070 --> 00:24:18,640 a billion people on India and this is a 579 00:24:22,510 --> 00:24:21,080 relatively I mean it's not a perfect 580 00:24:26,620 --> 00:24:22,520 amok recei but it is a democracy and 581 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:26,630 it's been one for 60-some years and and 582 00:24:31,210 --> 00:24:28,850 if a billion people can be a democracy 583 00:24:34,990 --> 00:24:31,220 then ten billion it seems to me can get 584 00:24:36,490 --> 00:24:35,000 amok recei and india preserves a 585 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:36,500 tremendous amount of cultural diversity 586 00:24:40,690 --> 00:24:38,450 linguistic diversity and cultural 587 00:24:42,610 --> 00:24:40,700 diversity ethnic diversity and so on so 588 00:24:45,850 --> 00:24:42,620 in a way it's a microcosm of what a 589 00:24:48,610 --> 00:24:45,860 world would be and again if you're 590 00:24:50,110 --> 00:24:48,620 already at that scale in India going to 591 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:50,120 the global level isn't that seems to me 592 00:24:54,039 --> 00:24:52,490 a huge extrapolation especially because 593 00:24:57,010 --> 00:24:54,049 in this 18th century you had 594 00:24:58,960 --> 00:24:57,020 philosophers saying that democracy was 595 00:25:00,940 --> 00:24:58,970 only going to work in very very small 596 00:25:03,490 --> 00:25:00,950 communities literally a few hundred 597 00:25:05,020 --> 00:25:03,500 thousand people and you know India is a 598 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:05,030 billion already and we have a democracy 599 00:25:10,630 --> 00:25:08,090 and democracy so I don't see a scale 600 00:25:15,940 --> 00:25:10,640 problem except that it waters down in 601 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:15,950 the digital votes right right right you 602 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:17,690 mentioned where you might be going with 603 00:25:21,370 --> 00:25:20,210 this line of thought and it might spawn 604 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:21,380 another book 605 00:25:24,979 --> 00:25:23,450 can you tell folks where you are in that 606 00:25:27,239 --> 00:25:24,989 process 607 00:25:29,940 --> 00:25:27,249 well it's just at the beginning stages 608 00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:29,950 I'd like to write I'm basically this 609 00:25:34,379 --> 00:25:32,710 from the next year dealing with fallout 610 00:25:36,180 --> 00:25:34,389 from the quantum book and writing 611 00:25:38,749 --> 00:25:36,190 whatever you know it's offenses and 612 00:25:40,919 --> 00:25:38,759 replies to the critics that I need to 613 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:40,929 but I have this one paper I want to 614 00:25:46,289 --> 00:25:43,330 write it off of anarchy being a 615 00:25:48,419 --> 00:25:46,299 despotism to kind of counter the world 616 00:25:50,190 --> 00:25:48,429 state being a despotism kind of argument 617 00:25:53,310 --> 00:25:50,200 but I'm sort of trying to conceptualize 618 00:25:56,249 --> 00:25:53,320 this world state book as volume two of 619 00:25:59,310 --> 00:25:56,259 the quantum story so I'd like to somehow 620 00:26:01,289 --> 00:25:59,320 connect it to the quantum argument in 621 00:26:05,310 --> 00:26:01,299 them in the book I just published I'm 622 00:26:06,419 --> 00:26:05,320 not sure how to do that yet but I do I 623 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:06,429 do 624 00:26:13,289 --> 00:26:10,690 see social collectivities as a kind of 625 00:26:16,799 --> 00:26:13,299 organism which is in the quantum book 626 00:26:18,659 --> 00:26:16,809 already and I think I see the world 627 00:26:21,389 --> 00:26:18,669 system the international system as an 628 00:26:24,779 --> 00:26:21,399 organism and I think that that's like so 629 00:26:27,930 --> 00:26:24,789 sort of and organisms develop in a 630 00:26:29,700 --> 00:26:27,940 certain direction over time as they 631 00:26:31,619 --> 00:26:29,710 mature and so I'd like to make some kind 632 00:26:34,710 --> 00:26:31,629 of a theological argument about 633 00:26:36,479 --> 00:26:34,720 organismic development it has some kind 634 00:26:38,580 --> 00:26:36,489 of quantum basis to it 635 00:26:39,749 --> 00:26:38,590 that's pretty speculative at this point 636 00:26:41,639 --> 00:26:39,759 and I'm not sure how to make that 637 00:26:43,499 --> 00:26:41,649 argument work but I do see the two books 638 00:26:46,769 --> 00:26:43,509 together in a sense as volume 1 and 639 00:26:50,729 --> 00:26:46,779 volume 2 it's just going to take several 640 00:26:52,109 --> 00:26:50,739 years probably to work this out okay 641 00:26:54,539 --> 00:26:52,119 before I totally let go of this 642 00:26:57,239 --> 00:26:54,549 interview with dr. Alexander went one 643 00:26:58,859 --> 00:26:57,249 more little tidbit that he app that he 644 00:27:02,129 --> 00:26:58,869 added after I thought we're all done 645 00:27:03,690 --> 00:27:02,139 that I thought was interesting you know 646 00:27:06,060 --> 00:27:03,700 my general feeling is and I should have 647 00:27:07,889 --> 00:27:06,070 said this on the show is that human 648 00:27:10,289 --> 00:27:07,899 beings know a lot less than we think we 649 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:10,299 do and the we're just at the beginning 650 00:27:14,249 --> 00:27:12,129 of figuring out the nature of the 651 00:27:16,049 --> 00:27:14,259 universe it seems to me and I think a 652 00:27:17,789 --> 00:27:16,059 lot of scientists and my colleagues 653 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:17,799 think actually we're really smart and 654 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:19,210 we've already got most of it figured out 655 00:27:24,749 --> 00:27:21,690 and I just think that's completely wrong 656 00:27:26,009 --> 00:27:24,759 and so who knows what hundred years even 657 00:27:27,899 --> 00:27:26,019 a hundred years from now people will 658 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:27,909 real will take us common sense that 659 00:27:47,750 --> 00:27:30,210 today we can't even imagine 660 00:27:52,110 --> 00:27:50,190 thanks again to dr. Alexander went for 661 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:52,120 joining me today and talking about this 662 00:27:57,390 --> 00:27:54,850 now before we move on to James Corbett 663 00:27:59,850 --> 00:27:57,400 let me throw in a couple ideas here one 664 00:28:03,300 --> 00:27:59,860 is that what I really appreciate about 665 00:28:06,990 --> 00:28:03,310 what went saying is that here's someone 666 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:07,000 who is from the inside of the system if 667 00:28:13,500 --> 00:28:10,330 you will who's really taking an honest 668 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:13,510 look at the deep systemic problems in 669 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:16,090 the system and let's face it you just 670 00:28:21,900 --> 00:28:18,490 don't hear that much you don't hear 671 00:28:24,750 --> 00:28:21,910 people inside academia exploring the 672 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:24,760 possibility that there is a very real 673 00:28:31,860 --> 00:28:28,330 deep fundamental problem with the way 674 00:28:33,540 --> 00:28:31,870 our political system is operating so one 675 00:28:36,030 --> 00:28:33,550 of the real appeals I think of when 676 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:36,040 space is to say well let's turn the 677 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:38,290 whole thing around if there is this deep 678 00:28:42,420 --> 00:28:40,810 unstated agenda to drive us towards a 679 00:28:44,790 --> 00:28:42,430 one world government which a lot of 680 00:28:46,380 --> 00:28:44,800 people make a good case for then let's 681 00:28:48,570 --> 00:28:46,390 explore that let's bring it out in the 682 00:28:50,940 --> 00:28:48,580 open and kick around what that might 683 00:28:52,860 --> 00:28:50,950 mean but of course I wanted to get 684 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:52,870 another perspective on that and I 685 00:28:59,400 --> 00:28:56,530 certainly did with our next guest James 686 00:29:02,550 --> 00:28:59,410 Corbett from the corporate report let's 687 00:29:04,380 --> 00:29:02,560 move on to that interview today we 688 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:04,390 welcome James Corbett to skeptic Oh 689 00:29:08,100 --> 00:29:06,370 James is a leading member of the 690 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:08,110 alternative media through through his 691 00:29:12,930 --> 00:29:10,810 various podcast YouTube channel blog 692 00:29:14,190 --> 00:29:12,940 posts and short and long form 693 00:29:16,020 --> 00:29:14,200 documentaries which are really 694 00:29:18,870 --> 00:29:16,030 sensational folks you have to check 695 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:18,880 those out he is producing just an insane 696 00:29:25,590 --> 00:29:22,450 amount of high quality geopolitical news 697 00:29:28,380 --> 00:29:25,600 that's just vital stuff for today's time 698 00:29:31,380 --> 00:29:28,390 so much so that I honestly as I was just 699 00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:31,390 joking with him earlier don't know how 700 00:29:35,850 --> 00:29:33,760 he does it but he does and you can find 701 00:29:37,470 --> 00:29:35,860 it all at the corporate report what so 702 00:29:39,810 --> 00:29:37,480 of course have linked up in this show 703 00:29:41,790 --> 00:29:39,820 James welcome back to skeptic oh thanks 704 00:29:42,930 --> 00:29:41,800 so much for joining me well thank you 705 00:29:44,910 --> 00:29:42,940 for having me back on it's always a 706 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:44,920 pleasure to talk with you well it was 707 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:46,570 kind of an interesting turn of events 708 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:49,810 that led me to you your work is on my 709 00:29:53,909 --> 00:29:51,730 mind because I do check out your website 710 00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:53,919 whenever there's a news event like the 711 00:30:00,480 --> 00:29:58,090 latest horrible tragedy in Paris you 712 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:00,490 know people even my family and friends 713 00:30:05,700 --> 00:30:03,370 ask me what's going on and until I check 714 00:30:07,860 --> 00:30:05,710 out your website along with a few other 715 00:30:10,860 --> 00:30:07,870 websites I don't even want to venture 716 00:30:13,019 --> 00:30:10,870 even an opinion on that because I think 717 00:30:16,230 --> 00:30:13,029 for a growing number of people including 718 00:30:19,980 --> 00:30:16,240 myself the alternative media is the 719 00:30:21,899 --> 00:30:19,990 go-to first source to sort through the 720 00:30:23,330 --> 00:30:21,909 other information that we get and I'm 721 00:30:26,100 --> 00:30:23,340 sure you hear that from a lot of folks 722 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:26,110 well I do and that's obviously a huge 723 00:30:30,419 --> 00:30:28,090 responsibility and one that I don't take 724 00:30:32,039 --> 00:30:30,429 lightly so I do try to put in as much 725 00:30:33,659 --> 00:30:32,049 effort as I can to try to sort out 726 00:30:35,490 --> 00:30:33,669 things that I'm going to talk about 727 00:30:36,810 --> 00:30:35,500 before I talk about them but as I think 728 00:30:38,370 --> 00:30:36,820 you know it's it is a huge 729 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:38,380 responsibility to have an audience that 730 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:40,570 relies on you for information on any 731 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:42,850 subject so I definitely try to live up 732 00:30:47,519 --> 00:30:45,370 to that well and you do a wonderful job 733 00:30:49,399 --> 00:30:47,529 of it and today of course we're not 734 00:30:52,110 --> 00:30:49,409 going to be talking so much about 735 00:30:55,350 --> 00:30:52,120 current events directly but I thought 736 00:30:57,810 --> 00:30:55,360 when I interviewed professor Alexander 737 00:31:00,600 --> 00:30:57,820 Wendt from Ohio State University about 738 00:31:03,930 --> 00:31:00,610 his recent book on really consciousness 739 00:31:07,110 --> 00:31:03,940 science and the social sciences I was 740 00:31:11,129 --> 00:31:07,120 just intrigued because I knew this guy 741 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:11,139 had a huge profile in the political 742 00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:13,330 science and international relations 743 00:31:17,669 --> 00:31:15,760 field and in particular he had drawn the 744 00:31:20,070 --> 00:31:17,679 attention of the alternative media a few 745 00:31:23,639 --> 00:31:20,080 years ago when he wrote a very 746 00:31:27,060 --> 00:31:23,649 influential article about one world 747 00:31:29,070 --> 00:31:27,070 state about the inevitability of the one 748 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:29,080 world state but James when I was talking 749 00:31:34,409 --> 00:31:30,850 to him what really intrigued me and 750 00:31:37,769 --> 00:31:34,419 motivated me to contact you was here's 751 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:37,779 an academic who seems to be taking 752 00:31:44,580 --> 00:31:42,010 seriously in thinking deeply about a lot 753 00:31:47,610 --> 00:31:44,590 of the issues that you talk about in 754 00:31:50,779 --> 00:31:47,620 terms of deep state issues black 755 00:31:54,060 --> 00:31:50,789 helicopter issues alternative 756 00:31:56,879 --> 00:31:54,070 interpretations of the reality that were 757 00:32:00,269 --> 00:31:56,889 fed so I don't know that even a lot of 758 00:32:03,029 --> 00:32:00,279 people in his field have appreciated the 759 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:03,039 extent to which he's really looked at it 760 00:32:07,860 --> 00:32:05,530 from that perspective so on one hand I 761 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:07,870 found that incredibly refreshing but I 762 00:32:13,140 --> 00:32:11,010 also found his conclusions about that 763 00:32:17,270 --> 00:32:13,150 challenging in many ways since they do 764 00:32:21,510 --> 00:32:17,280 go against I think the conventional 765 00:32:24,570 --> 00:32:21,520 alternative media perception of the 766 00:32:26,190 --> 00:32:24,580 inevitability of a one-world State now I 767 00:32:28,500 --> 00:32:26,200 know I've shared the interview with you 768 00:32:31,230 --> 00:32:28,510 and you've had a chance to give it a 769 00:32:33,750 --> 00:32:31,240 listen maybe we can start if you could 770 00:32:37,050 --> 00:32:33,760 give people a sense of maybe just the 771 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:37,060 thumbnail sketch of a primer of New 772 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:38,890 World Order I mean what that even means 773 00:32:43,530 --> 00:32:41,650 how you first came across the term and 774 00:32:45,390 --> 00:32:43,540 what it means to people now and I know 775 00:32:47,460 --> 00:32:45,400 that could take an hour but it certainly 776 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:47,470 could in fact it could take several 777 00:32:51,660 --> 00:32:49,450 years as I've been doing at my website 778 00:32:53,100 --> 00:32:51,670 so I would suggest people try to if 779 00:32:54,330 --> 00:32:53,110 they're interested in this tried to take 780 00:32:55,530 --> 00:32:54,340 a look at some of the work I've done in 781 00:32:57,420 --> 00:32:55,540 the past but I guess the thumbnail 782 00:32:59,040 --> 00:32:57,430 sketch would be to say that although the 783 00:33:01,620 --> 00:32:59,050 New World Order sounds like some kind of 784 00:33:04,410 --> 00:33:01,630 strange and weird conspiracy tale it's 785 00:33:06,300 --> 00:33:04,420 in fact one of the oldest and most basic 786 00:33:08,430 --> 00:33:06,310 stories of history it's the quest for 787 00:33:11,220 --> 00:33:08,440 consolidation of total control in the 788 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:11,230 hands of a ruling clique and that should 789 00:33:15,380 --> 00:33:12,970 not come as a surprise to any student of 790 00:33:18,170 --> 00:33:15,390 history that's what so many different 791 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:18,180 emperors and and other would-be 792 00:33:22,410 --> 00:33:20,530 hangers-on to power in the past and have 793 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:22,420 lusted after and tried to consolidate 794 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:24,970 under their control in the past I don't 795 00:33:28,530 --> 00:33:26,650 think that the modern phenomenon is is 796 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:28,540 fundamentally different other than the 797 00:33:32,910 --> 00:33:30,370 fact that it is truly on a global scale 798 00:33:35,700 --> 00:33:32,920 at this point and the idea of a globally 799 00:33:36,930 --> 00:33:35,710 consolidated world government of some 800 00:33:39,180 --> 00:33:36,940 sort is something that is at least 801 00:33:42,020 --> 00:33:39,190 feasible I don't think it's likely to 802 00:33:44,550 --> 00:33:42,030 happen in the near future but it's as 803 00:33:47,460 --> 00:33:44,560 Professor Wendt talked about and as I 804 00:33:49,770 --> 00:33:47,470 actually agree I think that the the the 805 00:33:50,850 --> 00:33:49,780 logic of the situation leads us in that 806 00:33:52,260 --> 00:33:50,860 direction and I think we've been 807 00:33:54,330 --> 00:33:52,270 trending that way for a very long time 808 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:54,340 and I think people who are opposed to 809 00:33:58,620 --> 00:33:57,130 that idea like myself do themselves with 810 00:34:01,350 --> 00:33:58,630 this service by believing that the 811 00:34:03,810 --> 00:34:01,360 actual opposition to world government is 812 00:34:06,150 --> 00:34:03,820 going to come by adhering to nationalism 813 00:34:08,370 --> 00:34:06,160 I think that the as I say the logic of 814 00:34:09,899 --> 00:34:08,380 the nation-state now a mentality that 815 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:09,909 we've been fostered in for the last 816 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:11,890 couple of centuries leads us almost 817 00:34:16,050 --> 00:34:14,530 inevitably inexorably towards that 818 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:16,060 consolidation of control in a world 819 00:34:18,850 --> 00:34:16,610 governed 820 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:18,860 so I think we have to interrogate the 821 00:34:23,140 --> 00:34:20,930 actual roots of the philosophy that 822 00:34:25,510 --> 00:34:23,150 leads one in the direction of giving up 823 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:25,520 one's own individual sovereignty towards 824 00:34:29,500 --> 00:34:28,010 some sort of abstract collective and I 825 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:29,510 want you to talk about that because I 826 00:34:37,300 --> 00:34:33,050 know that's a very important Keystone to 827 00:34:39,490 --> 00:34:37,310 your personal philosophy I guess on how 828 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:39,500 to move forward with the situation we're 829 00:34:44,890 --> 00:34:41,810 in but just touch on for a minute you 830 00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:44,900 know the modern instantiation of the new 831 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:47,110 world order as it's been kind of 832 00:34:54,250 --> 00:34:51,170 popularly understood as this alternative 833 00:34:57,670 --> 00:34:54,260 you know scary out there conspiracy 834 00:35:01,660 --> 00:34:57,680 thing really started I think with george 835 00:35:03,820 --> 00:35:01,670 bush senior who fuel few people even 836 00:35:05,890 --> 00:35:03,830 remember anymore but he was the one who 837 00:35:08,260 --> 00:35:05,900 was really kind of open about using this 838 00:35:09,610 --> 00:35:08,270 phrase at the UN and in other places and 839 00:35:11,950 --> 00:35:09,620 saying new world order new world order 840 00:35:13,420 --> 00:35:11,960 and and then it kind of took on a life 841 00:35:15,070 --> 00:35:13,430 of its own where people really kind of 842 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:15,080 started calling him and then these guys 843 00:35:19,930 --> 00:35:17,570 just started outing themselves and using 844 00:35:21,340 --> 00:35:19,940 it more and more clinton jumps in there 845 00:35:22,660 --> 00:35:21,350 and says yeah I agree with Bush we 846 00:35:24,850 --> 00:35:22,670 needed a new world order and now they're 847 00:35:27,820 --> 00:35:24,860 all just kind of out there what's going 848 00:35:30,220 --> 00:35:27,830 on why are they so I guess upfront now 849 00:35:31,870 --> 00:35:30,230 about that they're just emboldened by 850 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:31,880 the unbold indict 851 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:35,330 they think they can pull it off well for 852 00:35:38,470 --> 00:35:37,010 the history of the term new world order 853 00:35:40,660 --> 00:35:38,480 I would go back a little bit further to 854 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:40,670 early 20th century when HG Wells 855 00:35:43,870 --> 00:35:42,290 actually wrote a book called the New 856 00:35:45,460 --> 00:35:43,880 World Order talking about this and of 857 00:35:47,020 --> 00:35:45,470 course Wells is known today as some sort 858 00:35:49,720 --> 00:35:47,030 of science fiction fantasy kind of 859 00:35:51,460 --> 00:35:49,730 author but was actually quite an 860 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:51,470 important political figure in his time 861 00:35:56,530 --> 00:35:53,690 and in fact wrote the what became the 862 00:35:57,850 --> 00:35:56,540 the United Nations Charter of Human 863 00:35:59,920 --> 00:35:57,860 Rights he actually wrote the first draft 864 00:36:01,240 --> 00:35:59,930 of that so he was he was actually quite 865 00:36:03,820 --> 00:36:01,250 an important political mover and shaker 866 00:36:05,050 --> 00:36:03,830 and in his formulation what he was 867 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:05,060 talking about was basically a 868 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:07,010 technocratic control grid that there was 869 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:08,210 going to be a world government that was 870 00:36:12,610 --> 00:36:10,130 going to be presided over by benevolent 871 00:36:14,140 --> 00:36:12,620 wonderful scientists and engineers who 872 00:36:16,510 --> 00:36:14,150 would find the best way to basically 873 00:36:17,770 --> 00:36:16,520 engineer society and I think that gets 874 00:36:20,470 --> 00:36:17,780 at the heart of what this idea 875 00:36:22,510 --> 00:36:20,480 ultimately is it's a lot of control 876 00:36:24,730 --> 00:36:22,520 freaks who believe they're going to 877 00:36:26,860 --> 00:36:24,740 socially engineer us all for our own 878 00:36:29,230 --> 00:36:26,870 best interests but I think on top of 879 00:36:30,430 --> 00:36:29,240 that there is the the ruling clique that 880 00:36:32,829 --> 00:36:30,440 really funds 881 00:36:35,319 --> 00:36:32,839 that those scientists and engineers and 882 00:36:36,849 --> 00:36:35,329 their their research projects along for 883 00:36:38,770 --> 00:36:36,859 the purpose of consolidating that 884 00:36:41,230 --> 00:36:38,780 control in their own hands and I think 885 00:36:44,290 --> 00:36:41,240 for for much more sinister purposes so 886 00:36:46,630 --> 00:36:44,300 the the this term has a pedigree and it 887 00:36:49,240 --> 00:36:46,640 goes back at least a century in terms of 888 00:36:50,770 --> 00:36:49,250 that formulation new world order and it 889 00:36:52,390 --> 00:36:50,780 has been propounded by a lot of people 890 00:36:54,370 --> 00:36:52,400 in the past for example in world war ii 891 00:36:56,559 --> 00:36:54,380 hitler like to talk about the the new 892 00:36:59,290 --> 00:36:56,569 world order and at that time explicitly 893 00:37:02,170 --> 00:36:59,300 a lot of the anti-nazi types of cartoons 894 00:37:04,150 --> 00:37:02,180 and things even that you got from from 895 00:37:06,220 --> 00:37:04,160 disney and other places like that would 896 00:37:07,660 --> 00:37:06,230 would actually make fun of the new world 897 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:07,670 order and things like this it was it was 898 00:37:13,030 --> 00:37:09,530 quite a coup taunt at that time yes it 899 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:13,040 does have a third reich ring it 900 00:37:17,230 --> 00:37:15,170 certainly should i think because i think 901 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:17,240 that is a good way of understanding the 902 00:37:21,069 --> 00:37:19,130 kind of quest that the people who are 903 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:21,079 promoting it are on but it did obviously 904 00:37:25,329 --> 00:37:23,690 go out of fashion after after that for 905 00:37:27,940 --> 00:37:25,339 for some time and as you say was brought 906 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:27,950 back right into the heart of the sort of 907 00:37:33,670 --> 00:37:30,530 the upper political echelon zand that 908 00:37:36,579 --> 00:37:33,680 the policy wonks with george bush's 1990 909 00:37:38,260 --> 00:37:36,589 speech so from that point on it has been 910 00:37:40,660 --> 00:37:38,270 much more open but it still talked about 911 00:37:41,980 --> 00:37:40,670 of course quite a bit by the Henry 912 00:37:44,559 --> 00:37:41,990 Kissinger's and speaking of presence 913 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:44,569 keys and other types of academic movers 914 00:37:48,220 --> 00:37:46,130 and shakers behind the scenes who have 915 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:48,230 been involved in a number of different 916 00:37:53,559 --> 00:37:50,450 administration's going back decades now 917 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:53,569 and I think that the reason that it's 918 00:37:57,309 --> 00:37:55,490 coming out now is because it really is 919 00:37:59,890 --> 00:37:57,319 politically feasible I mean the reason 920 00:38:02,559 --> 00:37:59,900 that George HW Bush brought it out in 921 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:02,569 1990 was because it was the end of the 922 00:38:07,150 --> 00:38:04,640 the Cold War era it was the beginning of 923 00:38:08,859 --> 00:38:07,160 a new world order it was the chance to 924 00:38:11,890 --> 00:38:08,869 bring about a new world order and of 925 00:38:13,540 --> 00:38:11,900 course he framed that in the the idea of 926 00:38:15,250 --> 00:38:13,550 a rule of law 927 00:38:16,870 --> 00:38:15,260 amongst nations no longer will we have 928 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:16,880 the rule of the jungle in international 929 00:38:21,339 --> 00:38:18,770 politics now we have the chance for a 930 00:38:23,740 --> 00:38:21,349 new world order in which nations will 931 00:38:25,690 --> 00:38:23,750 all cooperate together and will have 932 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:25,700 peace and harmony which was interesting 933 00:38:29,260 --> 00:38:27,170 because he was introducing this at the 934 00:38:31,540 --> 00:38:29,270 same time as he was ramping up for the 935 00:38:33,309 --> 00:38:31,550 first Gulf War so the new world order 936 00:38:35,140 --> 00:38:33,319 was being introduced as peace even in 937 00:38:37,210 --> 00:38:35,150 the midst of war which i think is 938 00:38:39,190 --> 00:38:37,220 probably telling if the philosophy as a 939 00:38:41,230 --> 00:38:39,200 whole and it's been promoted along those 940 00:38:43,269 --> 00:38:41,240 lines but interestingly again it is 941 00:38:44,999 --> 00:38:43,279 always in crisis in war 942 00:38:48,269 --> 00:38:45,009 mayhem and chaos that it is used 943 00:38:50,109 --> 00:38:48,279 directly after 9/11 there was a 944 00:38:52,269 --> 00:38:50,119 influential member of the Council on 945 00:38:54,179 --> 00:38:52,279 Foreign Relations Gary Hart who came out 946 00:38:56,949 --> 00:38:54,189 and said I think this is the time for 947 00:38:58,989 --> 00:38:56,959 George W Bush to do what his father 948 00:39:01,659 --> 00:38:58,999 talked about and that's create a new 949 00:39:04,149 --> 00:39:01,669 world order and the other such phrases 950 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:04,159 like that became quite quite fashionable 951 00:39:09,939 --> 00:39:06,890 right after 9/11 and then right after 952 00:39:10,870 --> 00:39:09,949 the 2008 economic crisis with the Lehman 953 00:39:13,630 --> 00:39:10,880 Brothers collapse 954 00:39:16,329 --> 00:39:13,640 you saw the g20 in London that was held 955 00:39:17,620 --> 00:39:16,339 in April of 2009 the phrase new world 956 00:39:19,179 --> 00:39:17,630 order if you even just typed that into 957 00:39:22,630 --> 00:39:19,189 Google in quotation marks new world 958 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:22,640 order g20 2009 you will get literally 959 00:39:27,759 --> 00:39:25,249 hundreds of references from CNN and and 960 00:39:29,199 --> 00:39:27,769 other mainstream publications talking 961 00:39:31,269 --> 00:39:29,209 about this is the time to create a new 962 00:39:33,339 --> 00:39:31,279 world order so it's it's usually phrased 963 00:39:35,259 --> 00:39:33,349 in that way that this is some way to 964 00:39:36,969 --> 00:39:35,269 completely reshape the way that we think 965 00:39:39,819 --> 00:39:36,979 of international relations in the wake 966 00:39:42,249 --> 00:39:39,829 of any crisis and okay and I wanted to 967 00:39:44,380 --> 00:39:42,259 put off that line of thought or going 968 00:39:47,019 --> 00:39:44,390 down but I don't think we can and we're 969 00:39:49,779 --> 00:39:47,029 gonna have to put dr. Wendt on the back 970 00:39:53,079 --> 00:39:49,789 burner for one more second because we 971 00:39:58,059 --> 00:39:53,089 also see the advance of the new world 972 00:39:59,799 --> 00:39:58,069 order agenda in Manisa be steamrolling 973 00:40:02,079 --> 00:39:59,809 now we're rolling it into everything so 974 00:40:04,749 --> 00:40:02,089 climate change we need a new world order 975 00:40:07,449 --> 00:40:04,759 GMO we need a new world order everything 976 00:40:08,890 --> 00:40:07,459 that comes along is being tied to that 977 00:40:10,390 --> 00:40:08,900 name climate change is one of the most 978 00:40:13,089 --> 00:40:10,400 dramatic ones now they're saying oh my 979 00:40:14,199 --> 00:40:13,099 gosh this this carbon tax we're gonna 980 00:40:16,479 --> 00:40:14,209 need and we're going to need to 981 00:40:18,370 --> 00:40:16,489 implement this on a worldwide basis aha 982 00:40:21,519 --> 00:40:18,380 here here's a great place where we need 983 00:40:25,479 --> 00:40:21,529 the New World Order so this fear that 984 00:40:28,870 --> 00:40:25,489 many have had about the coming pressure 985 00:40:29,679 --> 00:40:28,880 towards New World Order is fulfilling 986 00:40:32,169 --> 00:40:29,689 itself 987 00:40:35,259 --> 00:40:32,179 at every turn it seems more and more 988 00:40:37,769 --> 00:40:35,269 with every new major news event that 989 00:40:39,849 --> 00:40:37,779 comes about wouldn't you agree 990 00:40:41,949 --> 00:40:39,859 unfortunately I have to agree because 991 00:40:45,399 --> 00:40:41,959 again I think given the logic of the 992 00:40:47,229 --> 00:40:45,409 situation every crisis is a potential 993 00:40:48,909 --> 00:40:47,239 opportunity for those who are seeking to 994 00:40:50,380 --> 00:40:48,919 consolidate more power in their own 995 00:40:52,539 --> 00:40:50,390 hands this is not a new political 996 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:52,549 phenomenon it has been noted for a very 997 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:54,890 long time and just one example of that 998 00:40:59,810 --> 00:40:57,570 HL Mencken back in 1918 wrote 999 00:41:01,670 --> 00:40:59,820 the whole aim of practical politics is 1000 00:41:03,860 --> 00:41:01,680 to keep the populace alarmed and hence 1001 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:03,870 clamorous to be led to safety by 1002 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:05,490 menacing it with an endless series of 1003 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:07,890 hobgoblins most of them imaginary and 1004 00:41:12,620 --> 00:41:10,410 that sentiment has been repeated a 1005 00:41:14,630 --> 00:41:12,630 number of times over the years Winston 1006 00:41:17,330 --> 00:41:14,640 Churchill is supposed to have said never 1007 00:41:19,010 --> 00:41:17,340 let a good crisis go to waste 1008 00:41:21,590 --> 00:41:19,020 whether or not he actually did say that 1009 00:41:23,540 --> 00:41:21,600 Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel former chief 1010 00:41:25,430 --> 00:41:23,550 of staff of Obama really did say that on 1011 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:25,440 camera a few years ago so people can 1012 00:41:29,540 --> 00:41:26,490 look that up on YouTube 1013 00:41:31,790 --> 00:41:29,550 the idea here is that any any crisis any 1014 00:41:33,470 --> 00:41:31,800 problem is an opportunity for those who 1015 00:41:35,810 --> 00:41:33,480 want to do something that otherwise 1016 00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:35,820 would be politically unpopular to 1017 00:41:40,010 --> 00:41:38,250 implement that agenda and let's just 1018 00:41:42,470 --> 00:41:40,020 take the most recent events as an 1019 00:41:45,050 --> 00:41:42,480 example in the wake of the the Paris 1020 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:45,060 attacks suddenly there's all sorts of 1021 00:41:49,250 --> 00:41:46,890 things that would have been politically 1022 00:41:52,490 --> 00:41:49,260 economically unfeasible suddenly become 1023 00:41:54,770 --> 00:41:52,500 almost almost necessary or quote-unquote 1024 00:41:56,900 --> 00:41:54,780 necessary so for example the French 1025 00:42:00,170 --> 00:41:56,910 government was recently chided by the EU 1026 00:42:02,660 --> 00:42:00,180 for breaking its its budget deficit 1027 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:02,670 goals that the EU is attempting to set 1028 00:42:07,220 --> 00:42:05,370 for its member nations but now that this 1029 00:42:10,790 --> 00:42:07,230 has happened France is swatting that 1030 00:42:13,100 --> 00:42:10,800 aside invoking 42.7 of the EU charter to 1031 00:42:14,420 --> 00:42:13,110 say well we we are we're under attack so 1032 00:42:16,700 --> 00:42:14,430 we we don't have to listen to your 1033 00:42:18,770 --> 00:42:16,710 budget goals we're gonna you know spend 1034 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:18,780 all this money on wrapping up security 1035 00:42:23,150 --> 00:42:21,690 or for example before the Paris attacks 1036 00:42:25,700 --> 00:42:23,160 the EU Parliament one of the largest 1037 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:25,710 groups in the U Parliament proposed the 1038 00:42:30,020 --> 00:42:28,170 creation of a standing you army which 1039 00:42:31,850 --> 00:42:30,030 was not taken very seriously by anyone 1040 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:31,860 at the time after the attacks the 1041 00:42:34,820 --> 00:42:33,090 President of the European Commission 1042 00:42:37,220 --> 00:42:34,830 himself is coming out calling for an 1043 00:42:39,470 --> 00:42:37,230 creation of a standing army and people 1044 00:42:41,510 --> 00:42:39,480 are starting to listen so again every 1045 00:42:44,030 --> 00:42:41,520 time there is a crisis no matter really 1046 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:44,040 where that crisis is coming from that is 1047 00:42:48,260 --> 00:42:46,650 used as a chance for people in positions 1048 00:42:50,930 --> 00:42:48,270 of power to further consolidate their 1049 00:42:52,790 --> 00:42:50,940 power and that's why it's unfortunately 1050 00:42:55,010 --> 00:42:52,800 it's extremely easy to move in that 1051 00:42:56,420 --> 00:42:55,020 direction all that has to be done is to 1052 00:42:58,820 --> 00:42:56,430 convince the public that there is a 1053 00:43:00,830 --> 00:42:58,830 threat serious enough and and that the 1054 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:00,840 only solution of course is to give these 1055 00:43:05,180 --> 00:43:03,210 these people in positions of power more 1056 00:43:07,310 --> 00:43:05,190 power to do what they apparently weren't 1057 00:43:09,500 --> 00:43:07,320 doing before the crisis happened and 1058 00:43:10,769 --> 00:43:09,510 what they apparently have had on their 1059 00:43:12,329 --> 00:43:10,779 agenda 1060 00:43:15,449 --> 00:43:12,339 a long time and they seem to be very 1061 00:43:17,969 --> 00:43:15,459 patient if we really read it with any 1062 00:43:20,039 --> 00:43:17,979 kind of lens towards history we can see 1063 00:43:22,679 --> 00:43:20,049 that they're they're very deliberate and 1064 00:43:25,979 --> 00:43:22,689 very patient towards moving towards 1065 00:43:29,549 --> 00:43:25,989 their goal so if we accept for a minute 1066 00:43:32,039 --> 00:43:29,559 that this one world government is part 1067 00:43:34,849 --> 00:43:32,049 of the agenda of I hate to say the 1068 00:43:37,259 --> 00:43:34,859 ruling elite because that sounds so 1069 00:43:40,559 --> 00:43:37,269 conspiratorial but let's just leave it 1070 00:43:41,809 --> 00:43:40,569 there I think that's a perfect place to 1071 00:43:44,609 --> 00:43:41,819 bring back 1072 00:43:48,539 --> 00:43:44,619 Alexander wentz article on the 1073 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:48,549 inevitability of the one world's the new 1074 00:43:53,909 --> 00:43:50,650 world order as it or as he calls it the 1075 00:43:58,349 --> 00:43:53,919 world state one world state because I 1076 00:44:01,529 --> 00:43:58,359 think he has in that given us some 1077 00:44:05,130 --> 00:44:01,539 reasons why we may want to reconsider it 1078 00:44:08,309 --> 00:44:05,140 despite all the horrible abuses that 1079 00:44:10,109 --> 00:44:08,319 have gone on in order to kind of advance 1080 00:44:11,609 --> 00:44:10,119 that agenda and that of course is my 1081 00:44:13,409 --> 00:44:11,619 read of what's going on it's your 1082 00:44:15,419 --> 00:44:13,419 happens to be your read to and I 1083 00:44:17,579 --> 00:44:15,429 challenge anyone who's really looked 1084 00:44:19,499 --> 00:44:17,589 into the evidence to see it much 1085 00:44:21,899 --> 00:44:19,509 differently but that's what I thought 1086 00:44:24,479 --> 00:44:21,909 was intriguing about went so he's saying 1087 00:44:26,249 --> 00:44:24,489 first let's go through the points and 1088 00:44:29,009 --> 00:44:26,259 and hear your response first he's saying 1089 00:44:32,549 --> 00:44:29,019 guys this is inevitable just if we look 1090 00:44:35,669 --> 00:44:32,559 at a long enough time frame of course 1091 00:44:37,799 --> 00:44:35,679 we're going to get to one state it 1092 00:44:40,799 --> 00:44:37,809 doesn't make sense to have all these 1093 00:44:42,479 --> 00:44:40,809 this chaos basically with all these 1094 00:44:45,390 --> 00:44:42,489 states running around with their own 1095 00:44:47,729 --> 00:44:45,400 agenda and now in a nuclear age 1096 00:44:50,429 --> 00:44:47,739 when people can destroy each other it's 1097 00:44:52,229 --> 00:44:50,439 just not where we want to be add to that 1098 00:44:54,269 --> 00:44:52,239 of course globalization and the fact 1099 00:44:56,999 --> 00:44:54,279 that our economies are intertwined and 1100 00:44:59,759 --> 00:44:57,009 it looks more and more inevitable maybe 1101 00:45:01,799 --> 00:44:59,769 not in five years ten years 50 years but 1102 00:45:04,620 --> 00:45:01,809 if you put enough a long enough time 1103 00:45:08,909 --> 00:45:04,630 frame on it isn't a one-world State 1104 00:45:11,939 --> 00:45:08,919 inevitable well as I say I do agree with 1105 00:45:14,279 --> 00:45:11,949 the the the fundamental point being made 1106 00:45:16,259 --> 00:45:14,289 here and this goes this goes back to 1107 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:16,269 really what has been a two century long 1108 00:45:20,309 --> 00:45:17,890 process of brainwashing that's been 1109 00:45:22,439 --> 00:45:20,319 remarkably effective the idea of the 1110 00:45:24,180 --> 00:45:22,449 nation-state of nationalism is not 1111 00:45:26,069 --> 00:45:24,190 inherent to our 1112 00:45:28,349 --> 00:45:26,079 sure as human-beings it didn't really 1113 00:45:29,819 --> 00:45:28,359 exist very very much in the way that we 1114 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:29,829 think of it today before the 19th 1115 00:45:34,559 --> 00:45:31,930 century and that was when there was a 1116 00:45:36,710 --> 00:45:34,569 battle at llena in then Prussia 1117 00:45:39,780 --> 00:45:36,720 modern-day Germany where Napoleon 1118 00:45:41,190 --> 00:45:39,790 swiftly seuss crushingly defeated the 1119 00:45:43,319 --> 00:45:41,200 depression army and brought them under 1120 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:43,329 subject subjection to the the French 1121 00:45:47,609 --> 00:45:45,490 Empire and it was such a humiliating 1122 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:47,619 defeat that through a series of events 1123 00:45:52,890 --> 00:45:49,690 the German philosopher Johann Gottlieb 1124 00:45:55,050 --> 00:45:52,900 fished was was compelled to deliver an 1125 00:45:57,780 --> 00:45:55,060 address to the German nation where he 1126 00:45:59,520 --> 00:45:57,790 talked about the aim of the state is 1127 00:46:01,020 --> 00:45:59,530 positive law internal peace in a 1128 00:46:02,849 --> 00:46:01,030 condition of affairs in which everyone 1129 00:46:05,010 --> 00:46:02,859 may by diligence are in his daily bread 1130 00:46:07,290 --> 00:46:05,020 and satisfy the needs of his material 1131 00:46:09,630 --> 00:46:07,300 existence that is why this love of 1132 00:46:11,579 --> 00:46:09,640 fatherland must itself govern the state 1133 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:11,589 and be the supreme final and absolute 1134 00:46:15,809 --> 00:46:14,410 authority its first exercises of this 1135 00:46:17,579 --> 00:46:15,819 authority will be to limit the state's 1136 00:46:19,890 --> 00:46:17,589 choice of means to secure its immediate 1137 00:46:21,450 --> 00:46:19,900 object internal peace to attain this 1138 00:46:24,540 --> 00:46:21,460 object the natural freedom of the 1139 00:46:27,150 --> 00:46:24,550 individual must of course be limited in 1140 00:46:29,940 --> 00:46:27,160 many ways and he went on to talk about 1141 00:46:32,190 --> 00:46:29,950 how this love of fatherland that was so 1142 00:46:33,329 --> 00:46:32,200 absolutely primal to this was going to 1143 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:33,339 have to be instituted by the 1144 00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:36,130 establishment of a means of education 1145 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:38,710 that would indoctrinate the children 1146 00:46:43,589 --> 00:46:40,690 into this and this is all talked about 1147 00:46:45,839 --> 00:46:43,599 quite openly and and was taken fully on 1148 00:46:48,450 --> 00:46:45,849 board in Prussia at the time and the 1149 00:46:50,579 --> 00:46:48,460 Prussian education system that developed 1150 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:50,589 as a result of this is the model for the 1151 00:46:55,079 --> 00:46:53,290 system that we have in most of the world 1152 00:46:56,609 --> 00:46:55,089 today including where I am here in Japan 1153 00:46:58,800 --> 00:46:56,619 and where you are in the United States 1154 00:47:00,650 --> 00:46:58,810 that is the model that most of the world 1155 00:47:03,870 --> 00:47:00,660 relies on today including of course 1156 00:47:07,170 --> 00:47:03,880 kindergarten literally a German word for 1157 00:47:09,030 --> 00:47:07,180 child garden and so much of it has been 1158 00:47:12,150 --> 00:47:09,040 completely adopted and what that has 1159 00:47:15,390 --> 00:47:12,160 done it has convinced people into this 1160 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:15,400 idea this love of fatherland that as I 1161 00:47:20,270 --> 00:47:16,930 say was not some sort of inherent 1162 00:47:23,309 --> 00:47:20,280 natural state of nature and once you get 1163 00:47:25,530 --> 00:47:23,319 enough of the population believing that 1164 00:47:27,240 --> 00:47:25,540 that is their identity is somehow 1165 00:47:29,339 --> 00:47:27,250 completely tied into some sort of 1166 00:47:30,390 --> 00:47:29,349 abstract collective like that interests 1167 00:47:32,339 --> 00:47:30,400 the question of swapping out one 1168 00:47:34,260 --> 00:47:32,349 abstract collective for another so 1169 00:47:36,420 --> 00:47:34,270 instead of rallying around the flag of 1170 00:47:37,830 --> 00:47:36,430 the United States well why not rally 1171 00:47:39,270 --> 00:47:37,840 around the flag of 1172 00:47:41,370 --> 00:47:39,280 North American Union or the United 1173 00:47:42,720 --> 00:47:41,380 Nations or whatever whatever else you 1174 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:42,730 want to swap it out I mean obviously 1175 00:47:46,740 --> 00:47:44,890 that will require more brainwashing and 1176 00:47:48,210 --> 00:47:46,750 indoctrinating and Doctrine ation to get 1177 00:47:50,070 --> 00:47:48,220 people to switch over but it's certainly 1178 00:47:51,630 --> 00:47:50,080 there's no there's no fundamental reason 1179 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:51,640 that can't be attained so I think again 1180 00:47:56,670 --> 00:47:54,130 within that that system where we do have 1181 00:47:58,260 --> 00:47:56,680 to support subordinate ourselves and our 1182 00:48:00,900 --> 00:47:58,270 our individual freedom to this 1183 00:48:02,070 --> 00:48:00,910 collective so that with the state can 1184 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:02,080 have supreme final and absolute 1185 00:48:07,260 --> 00:48:04,450 authority once you buy into that system 1186 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:07,270 yes ultimately eventually it is going to 1187 00:48:10,860 --> 00:48:08,890 consolidate into a single system of 1188 00:48:12,390 --> 00:48:10,870 control yeah but see that's what I think 1189 00:48:14,790 --> 00:48:12,400 is refreshing about went 1190 00:48:17,190 --> 00:48:14,800 I mean he's taking the argument of 1191 00:48:19,770 --> 00:48:17,200 individualism versus collectivism and 1192 00:48:23,010 --> 00:48:19,780 saying hey guys that isn't necessarily 1193 00:48:24,660 --> 00:48:23,020 bound up with one world state and as 1194 00:48:28,740 --> 00:48:24,670 matter of fact he gives some good 1195 00:48:30,860 --> 00:48:28,750 reasons why it may be better in terms of 1196 00:48:34,410 --> 00:48:30,870 us maintaining our individualism 1197 00:48:37,070 --> 00:48:34,420 maintaining our our inherent rights if 1198 00:48:39,930 --> 00:48:37,080 you will under a one world state then 1199 00:48:41,580 --> 00:48:39,940 through the Anarchy that's created in 1200 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:41,590 the situation that we have now if you 1201 00:48:44,910 --> 00:48:43,090 remember in the interview I think that's 1202 00:48:46,260 --> 00:48:44,920 one of his points and I think it's a 1203 00:48:48,450 --> 00:48:46,270 good one you know in the current 1204 00:48:51,450 --> 00:48:48,460 situation where you can just get 1205 00:48:53,190 --> 00:48:51,460 together your secret spy seal whatever 1206 00:48:54,900 --> 00:48:53,200 you want to call them group and go 1207 00:48:57,240 --> 00:48:54,910 abduct people and take them to some 1208 00:48:59,420 --> 00:48:57,250 foreign country you can just throw money 1209 00:49:01,770 --> 00:48:59,430 around I mean how could it be a worse 1210 00:49:03,780 --> 00:49:01,780 situation than that there is ZERO 1211 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:03,790 accountability so we can go in and we 1212 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:05,890 can kill hundreds of thousands of women 1213 00:49:10,410 --> 00:49:07,810 and children in Iraq and there's no 1214 00:49:11,450 --> 00:49:10,420 accountability I mean how can it really 1215 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:11,460 be worse 1216 00:49:18,030 --> 00:49:16,090 handing the people who are behind the 1217 00:49:20,070 --> 00:49:18,040 system as it exists today even more 1218 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:20,080 power and less accountability because 1219 00:49:24,090 --> 00:49:22,090 ultimately the the point I think is that 1220 00:49:27,450 --> 00:49:24,100 once you have a world system of 1221 00:49:29,130 --> 00:49:27,460 governance then if by some happenstance 1222 00:49:32,070 --> 00:49:29,140 wouldn't you know it that system of 1223 00:49:33,720 --> 00:49:32,080 governments gets taken over or hijacked 1224 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:33,730 or is put into place as I would put it 1225 00:49:38,610 --> 00:49:36,850 by the same types of psychopathic ruling 1226 00:49:40,620 --> 00:49:38,620 clique that that are currently in charge 1227 00:49:43,530 --> 00:49:40,630 of well much of the world today and of 1228 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:43,540 course some of the out-of-control powers 1229 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:46,330 in the world then what what would be the 1230 00:49:50,970 --> 00:49:48,970 recourse to that especially in a world 1231 00:49:51,749 --> 00:49:50,980 government that's presided over by the 1232 00:49:54,659 --> 00:49:51,759 types of tech 1233 00:49:56,639 --> 00:49:54,669 logical control grid technologies that 1234 00:49:59,039 --> 00:49:56,649 are coming into place with tracking and 1235 00:50:00,269 --> 00:49:59,049 surveillance and basically the ability 1236 00:50:02,549 --> 00:50:00,279 of the state to know what you're doing 1237 00:50:04,069 --> 00:50:02,559 at all times and to restrict your your 1238 00:50:06,089 --> 00:50:04,079 movements and things of that nature 1239 00:50:08,069 --> 00:50:06,099 we're looking at something that's not 1240 00:50:09,809 --> 00:50:08,079 only um not not only sort of the 1241 00:50:11,699 --> 00:50:09,819 ultimate nightmare of people fighting 1242 00:50:13,409 --> 00:50:11,709 fighting the Nazis back in World War two 1243 00:50:15,329 --> 00:50:13,419 or what have you thought you know well 1244 00:50:17,579 --> 00:50:15,339 what if what if Hitler takes over the 1245 00:50:19,669 --> 00:50:17,589 world I mean at this point it's not just 1246 00:50:21,809 --> 00:50:19,679 that it's that there's actually a 1247 00:50:24,029 --> 00:50:21,819 technological grid behind this that 1248 00:50:26,399 --> 00:50:24,039 would allow the types of control over 1249 00:50:29,189 --> 00:50:26,409 society that no previous dictator in 1250 00:50:31,079 --> 00:50:29,199 history could have even dreamed of and I 1251 00:50:32,489 --> 00:50:31,089 think it's important to understand I 1252 00:50:34,859 --> 00:50:32,499 mean there's a couple of ways of 1253 00:50:36,629 --> 00:50:34,869 answering that objection and one of them 1254 00:50:38,309 --> 00:50:36,639 I think would be immediately 1255 00:50:40,259 --> 00:50:38,319 understandable to yourself and I imagine 1256 00:50:42,389 --> 00:50:40,269 your whole audience which is to say it's 1257 00:50:43,709 --> 00:50:42,399 a matter of principle really more so 1258 00:50:45,629 --> 00:50:43,719 than it is about the utilitarian 1259 00:50:46,829 --> 00:50:45,639 consequentialist argument wouldn't it be 1260 00:50:49,469 --> 00:50:46,839 better if we all lived in that society 1261 00:50:51,059 --> 00:50:49,479 and the the the question of principle is 1262 00:50:52,739 --> 00:50:51,069 one as I say I think should appeal to 1263 00:50:54,479 --> 00:50:52,749 yourself and your audience because it's 1264 00:50:56,819 --> 00:50:54,489 the exact same objection that people 1265 00:50:59,189 --> 00:50:56,829 might raise with you saying Alex Alex 1266 00:51:01,909 --> 00:50:59,199 why do you why do you keep fighting so 1267 00:51:04,709 --> 00:51:01,919 hard against this materialist philosophy 1268 00:51:06,209 --> 00:51:04,719 who cares if it's right or wrong it 1269 00:51:07,769 --> 00:51:06,219 builds us a better toaster and 1270 00:51:09,059 --> 00:51:07,779 ultimately doesn't that isn't that 1271 00:51:11,249 --> 00:51:09,069 better I mean it makes your life a bit 1272 00:51:13,259 --> 00:51:11,259 better and of course that isn't the 1273 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:13,269 point the point I assume of what you're 1274 00:51:18,299 --> 00:51:15,249 doing is to try to get at truth and to 1275 00:51:20,489 --> 00:51:18,309 actually you know expose that to to more 1276 00:51:23,039 --> 00:51:20,499 people and get people to think about 1277 00:51:24,539 --> 00:51:23,049 that so I would say again it's it's more 1278 00:51:26,579 --> 00:51:24,549 a question of principle and the 1279 00:51:28,199 --> 00:51:26,589 principle of it is that there is there 1280 00:51:31,499 --> 00:51:28,209 is a certain fundamental moral 1281 00:51:33,989 --> 00:51:31,509 principles that cannot be breached by 1282 00:51:35,759 --> 00:51:33,999 any people wearing any hats proclaiming 1283 00:51:37,439 --> 00:51:35,769 whatever kind of authority of any funny 1284 00:51:38,939 --> 00:51:37,449 badges they might have that they they 1285 00:51:41,099 --> 00:51:38,949 think gives them special rights to do 1286 00:51:43,019 --> 00:51:41,109 things that you and I can't do like use 1287 00:51:44,999 --> 00:51:43,029 force fraud and coercion against others 1288 00:51:46,499 --> 00:51:45,009 to do things against peaceful people to 1289 00:51:48,419 --> 00:51:46,509 do things against their will I think no 1290 00:51:50,189 --> 00:51:48,429 one has the right to do that but beyond 1291 00:51:52,589 --> 00:51:50,199 the matter of principle which is 1292 00:51:54,179 --> 00:51:52,599 ultimately what I would argue on I think 1293 00:51:56,099 --> 00:51:54,189 if there's also a consequentialist 1294 00:51:59,669 --> 00:51:56,109 argument to be made here that this would 1295 00:52:02,789 --> 00:51:59,679 in fact be absolutely in an absolute 1296 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:02,799 sense it would be nightmarish to to give 1297 00:52:07,980 --> 00:52:05,290 this type of power in control 1298 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:07,990 a bloodthirsty psychopathic elite who 1299 00:52:13,740 --> 00:52:11,170 really do lust after the large-scale 1300 00:52:16,110 --> 00:52:13,750 reduction of the human population so 1301 00:52:18,780 --> 00:52:16,120 that they will ultimately use technology 1302 00:52:21,450 --> 00:52:18,790 to rule over a very small clique of 1303 00:52:22,380 --> 00:52:21,460 humans that are allowed to to basically 1304 00:52:24,240 --> 00:52:22,390 live on this planet 1305 00:52:26,010 --> 00:52:24,250 it might sound far-fetched but let's put 1306 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:26,020 that in some historical perspective of 1307 00:52:31,290 --> 00:52:28,770 the type of Psychopaths who have written 1308 00:52:33,090 --> 00:52:31,300 before you do that no I will I will 1309 00:52:35,490 --> 00:52:33,100 continue with this so let's look at some 1310 00:52:37,590 --> 00:52:35,500 of the examples of people like this and 1311 00:52:40,230 --> 00:52:37,600 let's look at a very interesting family 1312 00:52:42,300 --> 00:52:40,240 that goes back to the mid 19th century 1313 00:52:44,580 --> 00:52:42,310 there was someone named dr. bill 1314 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:44,590 Livingston who passed himself off as a 1315 00:52:48,450 --> 00:52:46,810 celebrated cancer specialist and he 1316 00:52:50,820 --> 00:52:48,460 roamed around the New York State 1317 00:52:53,250 --> 00:52:50,830 countryside selling literally selling 1318 00:52:57,090 --> 00:52:53,260 snake oil to the trusting population of 1319 00:53:01,200 --> 00:52:57,100 New York State and he was a lovable 1320 00:53:03,270 --> 00:53:01,210 rogue he was a dashing man who used his 1321 00:53:05,550 --> 00:53:03,280 good shot looks and good looks and charm 1322 00:53:08,010 --> 00:53:05,560 to basically swindle people out of money 1323 00:53:09,990 --> 00:53:08,020 time and time again pretending to be 1324 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:10,000 deaf and dumb and using a slate to to 1325 00:53:13,710 --> 00:53:11,410 converse with people begging for money 1326 00:53:17,130 --> 00:53:13,720 that type of thing just ridiculous types 1327 00:53:21,750 --> 00:53:17,140 of little schemes like that and he had a 1328 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:21,760 family which he then destroyed by raping 1329 00:53:26,190 --> 00:53:23,890 one of the maids of the family and 1330 00:53:30,050 --> 00:53:26,200 fathering children with her running away 1331 00:53:33,300 --> 00:53:30,060 when they tried to arrest him for it 1332 00:53:36,330 --> 00:53:33,310 engaging in bigamy and in Canada he had 1333 00:53:38,340 --> 00:53:36,340 a very strange life and was constantly 1334 00:53:40,020 --> 00:53:38,350 on the run from the law but one thing 1335 00:53:42,060 --> 00:53:40,030 that he did teach his children before he 1336 00:53:44,790 --> 00:53:42,070 ultimately abandoned them was that 1337 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:44,800 basically how to sweet cheat and swindle 1338 00:53:49,290 --> 00:53:47,530 other people in fact he said I always 1339 00:53:51,150 --> 00:53:49,300 cheat my children every chance I get I 1340 00:53:53,070 --> 00:53:51,160 want to make them sharp and this is 1341 00:53:54,750 --> 00:53:53,080 interesting not because this is dr. bill 1342 00:53:56,700 --> 00:53:54,760 Livingston that was just a name that he 1343 00:53:58,670 --> 00:53:56,710 made up to avoid the law it's because 1344 00:54:01,470 --> 00:53:58,680 his actual name was William Livingston 1345 00:54:03,510 --> 00:54:01,480 Rockefeller and he was the father of 1346 00:54:06,090 --> 00:54:03,520 john d rockefeller who of course went on 1347 00:54:08,670 --> 00:54:06,100 to found Standard Oil which through the 1348 00:54:11,010 --> 00:54:08,680 most unscrupulous practices managed to 1349 00:54:13,170 --> 00:54:11,020 rise to the position of oil monopoly in 1350 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:13,180 the late 19th century and founded the 1351 00:54:18,150 --> 00:54:16,210 Rockefeller family fortune and by the 1352 00:54:19,210 --> 00:54:18,160 late 19th early 20th century the 1353 00:54:21,540 --> 00:54:19,220 Rockefeller family 1354 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:21,550 well john d rockefeller specifically was 1355 00:54:26,950 --> 00:54:24,170 reviled by the american public 1356 00:54:28,450 --> 00:54:26,960 they absolutely detested the man because 1357 00:54:30,970 --> 00:54:28,460 he was the symbol of everything that was 1358 00:54:32,950 --> 00:54:30,980 that was wrong about this lust for money 1359 00:54:35,890 --> 00:54:32,960 and power and he was popularly 1360 00:54:37,540 --> 00:54:35,900 charactered as this Colossus basically 1361 00:54:40,540 --> 00:54:37,550 holding the US government in his hand 1362 00:54:43,890 --> 00:54:40,550 and and Standard Oil was an octopus 1363 00:54:46,569 --> 00:54:43,900 taking over the planet at that time 1364 00:54:48,550 --> 00:54:46,579 Rockefeller decided to turn his money 1365 00:54:50,380 --> 00:54:48,560 his fortune into political power by 1366 00:54:51,940 --> 00:54:50,390 becoming the most wonderful 1367 00:54:53,559 --> 00:54:51,950 philanthropist on the planet and 1368 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:53,569 founding the Rockefeller Foundation in 1369 00:54:59,290 --> 00:54:56,810 1913 which then started funding a whole 1370 00:55:01,870 --> 00:54:59,300 series of things one of which was the 1371 00:55:03,490 --> 00:55:01,880 American eugenics movement which for 1372 00:55:05,319 --> 00:55:03,500 people who don't know of course eugenics 1373 00:55:07,240 --> 00:55:05,329 was the rock star super science of the 1374 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:07,250 early 19th century in the way that 1375 00:55:11,740 --> 00:55:08,810 climate change is the rock star super 1376 00:55:13,569 --> 00:55:11,750 science of today and it was it's now the 1377 00:55:15,730 --> 00:55:13,579 outdated pseudoscience that said that by 1378 00:55:18,190 --> 00:55:15,740 measuring people's the width of people's 1379 00:55:19,660 --> 00:55:18,200 eyeballs and and you know the length of 1380 00:55:21,790 --> 00:55:19,670 their nose and things like this we can 1381 00:55:24,430 --> 00:55:21,800 determine that certain types of people 1382 00:55:26,620 --> 00:55:24,440 are just fundamentally criminal people 1383 00:55:28,750 --> 00:55:26,630 and they're lower intelligence and 1384 00:55:31,359 --> 00:55:28,760 they're likely to to lead to life of 1385 00:55:33,099 --> 00:55:31,369 crime and poverty and horrible things of 1386 00:55:34,839 --> 00:55:33,109 course this was fundamentally racial 1387 00:55:38,230 --> 00:55:34,849 characteristics and thus certain races 1388 00:55:40,089 --> 00:55:38,240 just were disfavored and should be bred 1389 00:55:41,470 --> 00:55:40,099 out of the gene pool and one way or 1390 00:55:44,079 --> 00:55:41,480 another so they started of course the 1391 00:55:46,270 --> 00:55:44,089 forced you of sterilization laws that 1392 00:55:49,420 --> 00:55:46,280 were very popular in the United States 1393 00:55:51,130 --> 00:55:49,430 in the 1920s and 30s funded by research 1394 00:55:53,980 --> 00:55:51,140 that was done at the Cold Spring Harbor 1395 00:55:56,380 --> 00:55:53,990 Laboratory the American eugenics records 1396 00:55:57,819 --> 00:55:56,390 office funded by the Rockefellers who of 1397 00:56:00,490 --> 00:55:57,829 course also funded the Kaiser Wilhelm 1398 00:56:02,859 --> 00:56:00,500 Institute in Nazi Germany that became 1399 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:02,869 the basis for Nazi its eugenic 1400 00:56:08,980 --> 00:56:05,810 pseudoscience that was then of course 1401 00:56:11,559 --> 00:56:08,990 demonized after the war because of what 1402 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:11,569 Hitler did so they decided to create 1403 00:56:14,980 --> 00:56:13,130 something called crypto eugenics which 1404 00:56:16,839 --> 00:56:14,990 was to take this same idea that 1405 00:56:18,730 --> 00:56:16,849 basically there is a certain ruling 1406 00:56:22,210 --> 00:56:18,740 class of people who buy their very 1407 00:56:24,460 --> 00:56:22,220 genetic makeup are suited to be our 1408 00:56:26,470 --> 00:56:24,470 natural rulers this is literally what 1409 00:56:29,349 --> 00:56:26,480 eugenics preaches they decided to take 1410 00:56:31,180 --> 00:56:29,359 that philosophy and roll it into other 1411 00:56:33,030 --> 00:56:31,190 fields just don't call it eugenics 1412 00:56:35,580 --> 00:56:33,040 anymore because no one likes that word 1413 00:56:36,900 --> 00:56:35,590 so john d rockefeller the third who was 1414 00:56:39,030 --> 00:56:36,910 heavily involved in the american 1415 00:56:40,650 --> 00:56:39,040 eugenics society took the head of the 1416 00:56:42,830 --> 00:56:40,660 american eugenics society and plopped 1417 00:56:45,090 --> 00:56:42,840 him into a position at the newly created 1418 00:56:46,470 --> 00:56:45,100 population council which was funded 1419 00:56:50,100 --> 00:56:46,480 through the Rockefeller Brothers fund 1420 00:56:53,070 --> 00:56:50,110 okay and I'm going to continue until I 1421 00:56:55,050 --> 00:56:53,080 am finished with this point and we roll 1422 00:56:57,780 --> 00:56:55,060 out from there with the the Rockefeller 1423 00:57:00,570 --> 00:56:57,790 family continuing to to fund things 1424 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:00,580 along that line and again I understand 1425 00:57:04,620 --> 00:57:02,530 there's so many facts and names and 1426 00:57:06,630 --> 00:57:04,630 dates and figures here oh is history I 1427 00:57:08,850 --> 00:57:06,640 don't want to hear about this but this 1428 00:57:10,980 --> 00:57:08,860 is at least in no no I'm going to 1429 00:57:13,230 --> 00:57:10,990 continue with this point this is at 1430 00:57:15,690 --> 00:57:13,240 least a window into the psychology and 1431 00:57:17,550 --> 00:57:15,700 the motivations behind the creation of 1432 00:57:20,190 --> 00:57:17,560 world government it is not something 1433 00:57:21,750 --> 00:57:20,200 where it is going to be if we just give 1434 00:57:23,970 --> 00:57:21,760 them this power then they'll be happy 1435 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:23,980 with the power it's what they are using 1436 00:57:28,230 --> 00:57:25,930 the power for and I think perhaps the 1437 00:57:31,350 --> 00:57:28,240 more succinct version of this story 1438 00:57:33,630 --> 00:57:31,360 which I will now deliver is that you can 1439 00:57:36,150 --> 00:57:33,640 also see this mentality in for example 1440 00:57:39,180 --> 00:57:36,160 someone like Madeleine Albright who back 1441 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:39,190 in the 1990s when asked about the the 1442 00:57:43,230 --> 00:57:41,530 sanctions on Iraq at that time and that 1443 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:43,240 the the the fact that they had killed 1444 00:57:49,020 --> 00:57:44,970 five hundred thousand Iraqi children 1445 00:57:52,170 --> 00:57:49,030 died as a result of the sanctions on 1446 00:57:53,910 --> 00:57:52,180 Iraq when asked is it worth it is it 1447 00:57:55,950 --> 00:57:53,920 worth it and Madeleine Albright said 1448 00:57:58,140 --> 00:57:55,960 well yes I think it is worth it to kill 1449 00:57:59,670 --> 00:57:58,150 five hundred thousand Iraqi children I 1450 00:58:01,950 --> 00:57:59,680 think that's the mentality of these 1451 00:58:03,540 --> 00:58:01,960 people that human life really does not 1452 00:58:06,330 --> 00:58:03,550 mean anything to them and to hand them 1453 00:58:09,300 --> 00:58:06,340 the power and control over the entirety 1454 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:09,310 of the globe is something that is should 1455 00:58:13,140 --> 00:58:11,410 strike fear into the hearts of anyone 1456 00:58:15,540 --> 00:58:13,150 who understands what is really at stake 1457 00:58:18,930 --> 00:58:15,550 here especially given the technocratic 1458 00:58:22,260 --> 00:58:18,940 control grid that we're moving into you 1459 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:22,270 know I used to watch those oh those 1460 00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:25,450 commercials for the Navy and it used to 1461 00:58:28,410 --> 00:58:27,250 just make my blood boil I wouldn't want 1462 00:58:30,510 --> 00:58:28,420 to grab the remote and throw it at the 1463 00:58:32,250 --> 00:58:30,520 TV you know all the nice music and the 1464 00:58:36,660 --> 00:58:32,260 beautiful ocean say a force for peace 1465 00:58:38,190 --> 00:58:36,670 you know and then at some point it 1466 00:58:41,430 --> 00:58:38,200 turned for me I said you know what 1467 00:58:45,570 --> 00:58:41,440 that's the best freaking chance we have 1468 00:58:46,830 --> 00:58:45,580 is that the American people still hold 1469 00:58:49,620 --> 00:58:46,840 to the idea 1470 00:58:52,890 --> 00:58:49,630 that there are certain values that we 1471 00:58:56,700 --> 00:58:52,900 stand for there are certain moral 1472 00:58:59,190 --> 00:58:56,710 principles that are at our core that's 1473 00:59:00,810 --> 00:58:59,200 what I think went is talking about 1474 00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:00,820 that's what I think 1475 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:04,210 turns the table we're fighting a fight 1476 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:06,610 against the people that you're talking 1477 00:59:12,540 --> 00:59:10,330 about let's acknowledge that where do we 1478 00:59:15,780 --> 00:59:12,550 want to battle it do we want to battle 1479 00:59:19,830 --> 00:59:15,790 it with the idea that pushing against 1480 00:59:22,830 --> 00:59:19,840 their inevitable agenda or do we want to 1481 00:59:23,870 --> 00:59:22,840 jump out in front of it and say I think 1482 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:23,880 when tis right 1483 00:59:30,500 --> 00:59:26,770 any one world state would only come 1484 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:30,510 about if it at least on the surface 1485 00:59:38,130 --> 00:59:33,970 reflected our liberal democratic values 1486 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:38,140 of justice of freedom of equality for 1487 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:41,530 all people in the world why don't we get 1488 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:44,410 in front of the game and say one world 1489 00:59:50,370 --> 00:59:48,490 state of course placate me is the term 1490 00:59:52,890 --> 00:59:50,380 that I say you know I can be placated 1491 00:59:54,380 --> 00:59:52,900 just like I think you can be James and 1492 00:59:57,660 --> 00:59:54,390 I've heard you say it you know if you're 1493 01:00:00,060 --> 00:59:57,670 left to your individual rights 1494 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:00,070 if those rights are protected if you're 1495 01:00:07,650 --> 01:00:04,810 given certain freedoms then you have a 1496 01:00:10,110 --> 01:00:07,660 lot less interest in what the scoundrels 1497 01:00:13,260 --> 01:00:10,120 who are always going to be scoundrels 1498 01:00:18,060 --> 01:00:13,270 are doing so isn't this an opportunity 1499 01:00:20,730 --> 01:00:18,070 to change the battlefield by switching 1500 01:00:22,710 --> 01:00:20,740 sides if you will well if you could 1501 01:00:24,060 --> 01:00:22,720 provide me of that quotation thing that 1502 01:00:26,130 --> 01:00:24,070 I would be happy with just some of my 1503 01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:26,140 individual rights and let the scoundrels 1504 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:27,730 be scoundrels I'd be interested to hear 1505 01:00:32,580 --> 01:00:30,010 that quotation though that I didn't mean 1506 01:00:34,620 --> 01:00:32,590 to to misrepresent what you're saying 1507 01:00:37,260 --> 01:00:34,630 but I just heard that in one of your 1508 01:00:38,460 --> 01:00:37,270 recent podcast I mean I the the spirit 1509 01:00:41,340 --> 01:00:38,470 of it was that 1510 01:00:44,100 --> 01:00:41,350 you know you don't you're not interested 1511 01:00:48,060 --> 01:00:44,110 in playing police on everything that 1512 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:48,070 everyone does your your key points for 1513 01:00:52,500 --> 01:00:50,290 you are your individual rights and 1514 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:52,510 freedoms and to the extent that those 1515 01:00:59,370 --> 01:00:56,290 are given to you you can't have a say in 1516 01:01:00,740 --> 01:00:59,380 no well ok ok I see I see what you're 1517 01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:00,750 saying but that is a fun 1518 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:02,970 mental misunderstanding of my position 1519 01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:04,890 because rights are not given by anyone 1520 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:06,770 they they're not something that it's 1521 01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:09,450 protected well let's put it this way the 1522 01:01:13,190 --> 01:01:10,890 only rights that exist are negative 1523 01:01:14,990 --> 01:01:13,200 rights I you cannot to do that thing to 1524 01:01:17,090 --> 01:01:15,000 another person rather than rights that 1525 01:01:19,070 --> 01:01:17,100 somehow you are entitled to do something 1526 01:01:20,410 --> 01:01:19,080 simply because you exist so I think that 1527 01:01:23,330 --> 01:01:20,420 there is a fundamentally different 1528 01:01:25,210 --> 01:01:23,340 political outlook that arises from the 1529 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:25,220 latter did you get warmer I certainly do 1530 01:01:31,010 --> 01:01:29,370 let's let's address this through I think 1531 01:01:32,150 --> 01:01:31,020 there is a point of a chord here there 1532 01:01:35,300 --> 01:01:32,160 is a point of agreement in that 1533 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:35,310 ultimately I for example because I am 1534 01:01:39,590 --> 01:01:38,370 against the nationalist ideology exactly 1535 01:01:43,010 --> 01:01:39,600 as much as I'm against the globalist 1536 01:01:45,860 --> 01:01:43,020 ideology I agree that there is a it is a 1537 01:01:48,020 --> 01:01:45,870 global borderless world that's what it 1538 01:01:49,970 --> 01:01:48,030 is naturally there are no lines on a map 1539 01:01:51,590 --> 01:01:49,980 that has have any real meaning and 1540 01:01:53,840 --> 01:01:51,600 reality other than what we make of them 1541 01:01:55,730 --> 01:01:53,850 and because of that we are becoming a 1542 01:01:57,110 --> 01:01:55,740 globally connected Society in terms of 1543 01:01:58,820 --> 01:01:57,120 our technology allowing people to 1544 01:02:01,310 --> 01:01:58,830 communicate and interact freely around 1545 01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:01,320 the world and so we are becoming a 1546 01:02:05,210 --> 01:02:03,810 global society and it really is a 1547 01:02:07,550 --> 01:02:05,220 question of whether you want to do that 1548 01:02:11,260 --> 01:02:07,560 in a way that is free and open or a way 1549 01:02:15,590 --> 01:02:11,270 that is shut and and and malleable to 1550 01:02:17,660 --> 01:02:15,600 control and and I I of course do 1551 01:02:19,790 --> 01:02:17,670 advocate for the former resident ladder 1552 01:02:21,290 --> 01:02:19,800 through such things as I've talked about 1553 01:02:23,210 --> 01:02:21,300 in my podcast in the past like the 1554 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:23,220 peer-to-peer economy I think is a 1555 01:02:27,350 --> 01:02:25,170 wonderful amazing incredible thing that 1556 01:02:29,300 --> 01:02:27,360 people can interact and transact with 1557 01:02:31,070 --> 01:02:29,310 anyone anywhere on the globe and you 1558 01:02:32,330 --> 01:02:31,080 could do it through a cryptocurrency or 1559 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:32,340 whatever so that it's instantaneous 1560 01:02:37,790 --> 01:02:35,010 there's no bank institution that comes 1561 01:02:40,730 --> 01:02:37,800 in between it truly is a global sort of 1562 01:02:42,590 --> 01:02:40,740 global society in that sense that's the 1563 01:02:44,540 --> 01:02:42,600 model that I think we have to be working 1564 01:02:47,330 --> 01:02:44,550 towards rather than putting in a 1565 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:47,340 government to control the entire globe I 1566 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:49,170 think it's more about human beings 1567 01:02:53,450 --> 01:02:51,210 interacting as human beings and this is 1568 01:02:58,430 --> 01:02:53,460 that dreaded a word 1569 01:03:00,620 --> 01:02:58,440 oh no anarchism oh okay oh it's oh wait 1570 01:03:03,380 --> 01:03:00,630 no anarchism actually doesn't mean that 1571 01:03:06,140 --> 01:03:03,390 anarchism simply means without rulers 1572 01:03:07,550 --> 01:03:06,150 that let's be careful on that point it 1573 01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:07,560 doesn't mean without rules it means 1574 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:10,290 without rulers ie without governments 1575 01:03:14,099 --> 01:03:12,450 trying to prescribe limit control 1576 01:03:16,739 --> 01:03:14,109 database track catalog 1577 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:16,749 and tell people what to do and so yes I 1578 01:03:20,970 --> 01:03:19,210 do advocate anarchism specifically a 1579 01:03:22,950 --> 01:03:20,980 flavor of it called volunteerism which 1580 01:03:24,660 --> 01:03:22,960 I'll allow your audience to look up on 1581 01:03:26,309 --> 01:03:24,670 their own time if they're interested but 1582 01:03:28,079 --> 01:03:26,319 but yes I think that's really the 1583 01:03:29,999 --> 01:03:28,089 solution rather than trying to create a 1584 01:03:31,559 --> 01:03:30,009 government that unlike every other 1585 01:03:33,539 --> 01:03:31,569 government that has ever been instituted 1586 01:03:35,759 --> 01:03:33,549 in the history of the globe well this 1587 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:35,769 one somehow will be able to get more or 1588 01:03:40,620 --> 01:03:37,930 less keep contained and yeah it might 1589 01:03:42,839 --> 01:03:40,630 kill a few million people here you know 1590 01:03:44,279 --> 01:03:42,849 to poison our water there do you seduce 1591 01:03:46,049 --> 01:03:44,289 some of those things that they want to 1592 01:03:48,420 --> 01:03:46,059 do but you know it's just the price you 1593 01:03:49,769 --> 01:03:48,430 have to pay I don't believe that and I 1594 01:03:51,989 --> 01:03:49,779 don't I don't imagine most people 1595 01:03:53,009 --> 01:03:51,999 actually fundamentally do believe that 1596 01:03:55,289 --> 01:03:53,019 and I don't think that's what most 1597 01:03:57,180 --> 01:03:55,299 people are fighting and dying for in 1598 01:03:59,430 --> 01:03:57,190 many wars oh you know we'll have a 1599 01:04:01,079 --> 01:03:59,440 control by you know psychopathically 1600 01:04:03,329 --> 01:04:01,089 that's only there's only a little bit 1601 01:04:05,130 --> 01:04:03,339 bad it's not it's not terribly bad I 1602 01:04:06,239 --> 01:04:05,140 don't think that's ultimately the 1603 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:06,249 solution to this and I don't think 1604 01:04:08,970 --> 01:04:07,450 that's what you'd get in the end I mean 1605 01:04:10,829 --> 01:04:08,980 as I say I think with the technocratic 1606 01:04:13,710 --> 01:04:10,839 control grid there would be no way to 1607 01:04:14,910 --> 01:04:13,720 resist it and there's in such a system 1608 01:04:17,339 --> 01:04:14,920 there's no way you're going to be able 1609 01:04:19,650 --> 01:04:17,349 to contain the the psychopaths at the 1610 01:04:21,509 --> 01:04:19,660 top in any way so I think that's a pipe 1611 01:04:24,029 --> 01:04:21,519 dream but even given that pipe dream I 1612 01:04:26,249 --> 01:04:24,039 would prefer to have the the voluntarist 1613 01:04:29,670 --> 01:04:26,259 ik society rather than a society ruled 1614 01:04:31,529 --> 01:04:29,680 by anyone I guess you hit the the key 1615 01:04:33,839 --> 01:04:31,539 phrase to me it's it's pipe dream 1616 01:04:37,140 --> 01:04:33,849 I mean it's pipe dream that we are going 1617 01:04:40,430 --> 01:04:37,150 to be able to organically grow an 1618 01:04:43,349 --> 01:04:40,440 alternative culture that would be 1619 01:04:45,089 --> 01:04:43,359 attractive to the largest number of 1620 01:04:47,690 --> 01:04:45,099 people I mean that's one thing that does 1621 01:04:51,029 --> 01:04:47,700 kind of turn me off about the 1622 01:04:53,789 --> 01:04:51,039 alternative truth movement kind of view 1623 01:04:56,779 --> 01:04:53,799 is that ultimately at the end of the day 1624 01:04:59,970 --> 01:04:56,789 it does come down to some kind of 1625 01:05:02,370 --> 01:04:59,980 democratic vote if you will even if that 1626 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:02,380 movement was degree it gained momentum 1627 01:05:07,650 --> 01:05:05,650 and tremendous favor among larger and 1628 01:05:09,930 --> 01:05:07,660 larger groups of people it would still 1629 01:05:12,269 --> 01:05:09,940 ultimately come from town to some kind 1630 01:05:16,289 --> 01:05:12,279 of vote because that is also in keeping 1631 01:05:18,329 --> 01:05:16,299 with our democratic values so what what 1632 01:05:20,579 --> 01:05:18,339 do you keep saying democratic values for 1633 01:05:22,049 --> 01:05:20,589 I don't have democratic values and I 1634 01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:22,059 think that's the exact point that I'm 1635 01:05:25,769 --> 01:05:23,890 arguing that no there would not be a 1636 01:05:28,049 --> 01:05:25,779 vote on this because that's the point 1637 01:05:30,390 --> 01:05:28,059 there is no majority that can force 1638 01:05:32,699 --> 01:05:30,400 or compel a peaceful minority to do what 1639 01:05:34,529 --> 01:05:32,709 they want morally and that's the 1640 01:05:36,779 --> 01:05:34,539 fundamental part point of this the moral 1641 01:05:38,789 --> 01:05:36,789 principle again exactly like yourself 1642 01:05:40,140 --> 01:05:38,799 arguing against the materialists but 1643 01:05:42,599 --> 01:05:40,150 hold on that the reason I keep bringing 1644 01:05:47,339 --> 01:05:42,609 up Democratic is that that's one of 1645 01:05:49,229 --> 01:05:47,349 Wentz points is that we as the United 1646 01:05:52,650 --> 01:05:49,239 States you're a Canadian who lives in 1647 01:05:53,609 --> 01:05:52,660 Japan who speaks primarily to Americans 1648 01:05:55,439 --> 01:05:53,619 although you speak to people all over 1649 01:05:58,999 --> 01:05:55,449 the world so I mean you're the you're a 1650 01:06:03,539 --> 01:05:59,009 perfect model of the globalization of 1651 01:06:07,319 --> 01:06:03,549 liberal democracy right because in its 1652 01:06:10,079 --> 01:06:07,329 broadest sense your values are everyone 1653 01:06:13,439 --> 01:06:10,089 has certain inalienable rights that's 1654 01:06:15,809 --> 01:06:13,449 kind of liberalism democracy that you 1655 01:06:17,429 --> 01:06:15,819 have the right to exist and you have the 1656 01:06:19,349 --> 01:06:17,439 right to property and those kind of 1657 01:06:23,429 --> 01:06:19,359 things I mean this is what when is 1658 01:06:25,199 --> 01:06:23,439 talking about in terms I yeah values I'm 1659 01:06:27,089 --> 01:06:25,209 not trying to invent the term I'm just 1660 01:06:29,219 --> 01:06:27,099 trying to use it in the way that he used 1661 01:06:30,150 --> 01:06:29,229 it in the paper and in the way that yes 1662 01:06:32,489 --> 01:06:30,160 and that's what I'm fundamentally 1663 01:06:34,410 --> 01:06:32,499 disputing I think that's the trap I 1664 01:06:37,019 --> 01:06:34,420 think that that's where we get into that 1665 01:06:39,209 --> 01:06:37,029 trap and that's why the the argument 1666 01:06:40,679 --> 01:06:39,219 against that can't be within that logic 1667 01:06:43,140 --> 01:06:40,689 it has to be outside of that and the 1668 01:06:44,999 --> 01:06:43,150 Democratic part of that is the is the 1669 01:06:46,890 --> 01:06:45,009 the poison that they lure people in with 1670 01:06:48,959 --> 01:06:46,900 the sweet poison that they lure people 1671 01:06:50,489 --> 01:06:48,969 in with I don't quite understand I mean 1672 01:06:52,979 --> 01:06:50,499 wouldn't it at the end of the day I mean 1673 01:06:55,319 --> 01:06:52,989 we're gonna have to decide let's say 1674 01:06:57,449 --> 01:06:55,329 that the you know this was to work out 1675 01:07:00,599 --> 01:06:57,459 exactly the way that we want it and we 1676 01:07:02,729 --> 01:07:00,609 were able to create whatever world state 1677 01:07:04,349 --> 01:07:02,739 and we could have it be what we'd still 1678 01:07:06,779 --> 01:07:04,359 come down to some kind of vote in terms 1679 01:07:08,579 --> 01:07:06,789 of what should be those values what 1680 01:07:11,539 --> 01:07:08,589 should be the laws what should be the 1681 01:07:13,529 --> 01:07:11,549 rules it does come down no it does not 1682 01:07:15,029 --> 01:07:13,539 necessarily and not in a way that you're 1683 01:07:17,009 --> 01:07:15,039 thinking but let's let's put it this way 1684 01:07:18,150 --> 01:07:17,019 then so I guess we'll have to get into 1685 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:18,160 this because this is the fundamental 1686 01:07:22,650 --> 01:07:20,650 point of what I'm advocating which is 1687 01:07:24,870 --> 01:07:22,660 volunteerism which is the principle that 1688 01:07:27,179 --> 01:07:24,880 you can do you can create whatever kind 1689 01:07:29,219 --> 01:07:27,189 of community you want under whatever 1690 01:07:31,829 --> 01:07:29,229 kind of rules you want including a 1691 01:07:33,959 --> 01:07:31,839 democracy whatever you want just so long 1692 01:07:36,449 --> 01:07:33,969 as it is completely voluntary ie there 1693 01:07:38,969 --> 01:07:36,459 is no one who is compelled by living in 1694 01:07:39,749 --> 01:07:38,979 a certain area or whatever to be a part 1695 01:07:41,770 --> 01:07:39,759 of that community 1696 01:07:43,690 --> 01:07:41,780 so ultimately 1697 01:07:46,060 --> 01:07:43,700 so you can create a structure if you 1698 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:46,070 want to but I could just as easily opt 1699 01:07:50,290 --> 01:07:47,810 to not be a part of that structure thank 1700 01:07:52,900 --> 01:07:50,300 you very much and and no one could 1701 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:52,910 compel me by you know using a gun or 1702 01:07:57,940 --> 01:07:55,250 what-have-you to to make me do anything 1703 01:08:00,790 --> 01:07:57,950 against my will so in that case then yes 1704 01:08:02,770 --> 01:08:00,800 then we can how would they not how would 1705 01:08:04,630 --> 01:08:02,780 you keep people from compelling you well 1706 01:08:06,370 --> 01:08:04,640 ultimately I think the question of self 1707 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:06,380 defense is one that it comes down to 1708 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:08,690 natural law ie you have the right to 1709 01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:10,490 defend yourself from being killed by 1710 01:08:14,500 --> 01:08:12,050 someone so if there are enough people 1711 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:14,510 who are concerned about for example well 1712 01:08:17,470 --> 01:08:15,890 there's a group over there that's going 1713 01:08:19,780 --> 01:08:17,480 to try to make me live under such and 1714 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:19,790 such a system then you will form an 1715 01:08:27,700 --> 01:08:21,890 association to defend yourself against 1716 01:08:29,860 --> 01:08:27,710 it and that Association we are now is by 1717 01:08:32,470 --> 01:08:29,870 its very nature voluntarist 'ok you 1718 01:08:33,940 --> 01:08:32,480 decide to be a part of that association 1719 01:08:35,829 --> 01:08:33,950 because it serves your interests now 1720 01:08:37,990 --> 01:08:35,839 contrast that to the system where we're 1721 01:08:40,900 --> 01:08:38,000 in we're because you live within a 1722 01:08:43,150 --> 01:08:40,910 certain domain that certain people claim 1723 01:08:45,940 --> 01:08:43,160 to have the right to rule over you are 1724 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:45,950 compelled to give your support to that 1725 01:08:51,370 --> 01:08:48,650 governing authority in the terms of 1726 01:08:52,510 --> 01:08:51,380 taxation which are extracted from you at 1727 01:08:54,250 --> 01:08:52,520 the threat of violence 1728 01:08:55,660 --> 01:08:54,260 if you don't compel if you don't obey 1729 01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:55,670 they will throw you in a cage and if you 1730 01:09:00,910 --> 01:08:57,290 resist being thrown in cage you will be 1731 01:09:02,829 --> 01:09:00,920 killed so there is the the compulsion to 1732 01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:02,839 participate in that type of association 1733 01:09:07,570 --> 01:09:05,690 and they get to decide well you know 1734 01:09:09,340 --> 01:09:07,580 what the United States is under mortal 1735 01:09:11,230 --> 01:09:09,350 threat from Iraq so we better go over 1736 01:09:12,789 --> 01:09:11,240 halfway around the world and use your 1737 01:09:14,500 --> 01:09:12,799 resources that you're giving to us to 1738 01:09:17,770 --> 01:09:14,510 drop bombs on brown people 1739 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:17,780 I think that's fundamentally an insane 1740 01:09:22,660 --> 01:09:21,290 way of organizing society it would make 1741 01:09:24,190 --> 01:09:22,670 a lot more sense to me if I get to 1742 01:09:25,900 --> 01:09:24,200 decide you know what I think this is a 1743 01:09:27,220 --> 01:09:25,910 worthy cause I think we should defend 1744 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:27,230 ourselves from these people because 1745 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:28,730 they're threatening us let's get 1746 01:09:32,650 --> 01:09:31,010 together and do that and an association 1747 01:09:35,590 --> 01:09:32,660 formed on that basis on voluntaristic 1748 01:09:37,570 --> 01:09:35,600 principles is perfectly fine the idea 1749 01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:37,580 that you can compel me to participate in 1750 01:09:42,070 --> 01:09:39,170 that Association is fundamentally 1751 01:09:44,980 --> 01:09:42,080 immoral and I realize there is a vast 1752 01:09:47,470 --> 01:09:44,990 gulf between here and there 1753 01:09:48,910 --> 01:09:47,480 ie trying to get to that okay but there 1754 01:09:51,520 --> 01:09:48,920 that is ultimately what I'm not 1755 01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:51,530 advocating for and I think pipe dream or 1756 01:09:55,580 --> 01:09:53,690 not that is the principle which I'm 1757 01:09:58,129 --> 01:09:55,590 which I'm advocating for and 1758 01:09:59,660 --> 01:09:58,139 I can't compromise on that principle 1759 01:10:01,939 --> 01:09:59,670 there's no moral way for me to say oh 1760 01:10:03,379 --> 01:10:01,949 you know what screw you I don't care 1761 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:03,389 what you think you're going to 1762 01:10:06,709 --> 01:10:05,250 participate with us and if you don't you 1763 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:06,719 know we're gonna throw you in a cage and 1764 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:08,010 if you resist that I'm going to kill you 1765 01:10:12,379 --> 01:10:10,770 I think that's that's not the best way 1766 01:10:14,899 --> 01:10:12,389 that we can organize society and I think 1767 01:10:16,879 --> 01:10:14,909 there that we have to fundamentally 1768 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:16,889 reject that logic in order to get 1769 01:10:20,450 --> 01:10:19,050 anywhere other than where went and 1770 01:10:22,189 --> 01:10:20,460 others are proposing we're going to get 1771 01:10:24,140 --> 01:10:22,199 well why throw went in there and that's 1772 01:10:27,310 --> 01:10:24,150 certainly that's certainly not his 1773 01:10:30,260 --> 01:10:27,320 position he's saying agreeing with you 1774 01:10:32,060 --> 01:10:30,270 wholeheartedly right that's his point is 1775 01:10:34,430 --> 01:10:32,070 that there should be accountability 1776 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:34,440 people's state shouldn't be allowed to 1777 01:10:38,839 --> 01:10:36,330 do the kind of things that we did in 1778 01:10:42,979 --> 01:10:38,849 Iraq and Libya and are doing in Syria 1779 01:10:44,689 --> 01:10:42,989 and that his it's kind of a means to an 1780 01:10:46,910 --> 01:10:44,699 end kind of thing he thinks that the 1781 01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:46,920 best way to do it now let me clarify I 1782 01:10:50,570 --> 01:10:48,690 don't mean to say that went is arguing 1783 01:10:52,129 --> 01:10:50,580 for some sort of you know psychopathic 1784 01:10:54,050 --> 01:10:52,139 control grid I don't think that is what 1785 01:10:55,729 --> 01:10:54,060 people like that argument sure he is in 1786 01:10:57,530 --> 01:10:55,739 good faith arguing for a system that he 1787 01:10:59,030 --> 01:10:57,540 believes will be able to be the best 1788 01:11:01,879 --> 01:10:59,040 checks that we can have against that 1789 01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:01,889 he's not even arguing I think hit the 1790 01:11:05,209 --> 01:11:03,449 key point that he's making and then we 1791 01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:05,219 need to wrap this up because I've taken 1792 01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:07,489 a lot of your time here but is the 1793 01:11:13,580 --> 01:11:10,650 inevitability of it suggests that we 1794 01:11:15,890 --> 01:11:13,590 should change our strategy and get out 1795 01:11:18,890 --> 01:11:15,900 in front of it so that we can shape it 1796 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:18,900 in the best way we can I agree I agree 1797 01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:20,690 and I think that that means 1798 01:11:25,970 --> 01:11:23,250 participating in a Garissa 1799 01:11:28,330 --> 01:11:25,980 volunteerism voluntaristic associations 1800 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:28,340 and things that will go around and and 1801 01:11:32,899 --> 01:11:30,810 beyond the authority of state control 1802 01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:32,909 like the peer-to-peer economy and that's 1803 01:11:36,350 --> 01:11:34,170 what I talk about all the time we are 1804 01:11:38,419 --> 01:11:36,360 creating yes we are creating a global 1805 01:11:40,459 --> 01:11:38,429 society but it is one that doesn't have 1806 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:40,469 to be ruled over by some sort of 1807 01:11:45,859 --> 01:11:42,330 governmental structure james corbett 1808 01:11:48,709 --> 01:11:45,869 corbett report an interesting kind of 1809 01:11:49,629 --> 01:11:48,719 counter to the very interesting article 1810 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:49,639 by 1811 01:11:54,010 --> 01:11:52,010 Alexander went James thanks so much for 1812 01:11:55,990 --> 01:11:54,020 joining me and best of luck with all 1813 01:12:27,670 --> 01:11:56,000 your work thanks for having me on always 1814 01:12:32,780 --> 01:12:30,170 thanks again to James Corbett for 1815 01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:32,790 joining me in this dialogue with dr. 1816 01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:35,370 Alexander went on the New World Order I 1817 01:12:40,459 --> 01:12:37,890 guess I'd have a couple of questions to 1818 01:12:43,850 --> 01:12:40,469 tee up from this interview one is is 1819 01:12:47,150 --> 01:12:43,860 there really a deep state political 1820 01:12:49,670 --> 01:12:47,160 drive towards a one-world State towards 1821 01:12:53,030 --> 01:12:49,680 a new world order towards consolidation 1822 01:12:56,650 --> 01:12:53,040 of power at that level is that even a 1823 01:12:59,750 --> 01:12:56,660 remote possibility or is it just crazy 1824 01:13:02,270 --> 01:12:59,760 conspiracy theory and then question 1825 01:13:06,500 --> 01:13:02,280 number two since question one is a real 1826 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:06,510 lob question question two is is there 1827 01:13:13,430 --> 01:13:09,690 any scenario under which we would want 1828 01:13:16,430 --> 01:13:13,440 to get out in front of the issue turn it 1829 01:13:19,820 --> 01:13:16,440 around and say okay great here's what a 1830 01:13:23,870 --> 01:13:19,830 one-world state should look like here's 1831 01:13:27,170 --> 01:13:23,880 how we want it to emerge or should we 1832 01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:27,180 resist that at every turn because as 1833 01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:30,570 James Corbett says the power structure 1834 01:13:35,689 --> 01:13:33,090 that we have now is incapable of doing 1835 01:13:38,660 --> 01:13:35,699 anything other than completely 1836 01:13:41,689 --> 01:13:38,670 subverting and corrupting any efforts 1837 01:13:44,330 --> 01:13:41,699 along those lines so I know these 1838 01:13:45,530 --> 01:13:44,340 questions are off target for the usual 1839 01:13:48,260 --> 01:13:45,540 kind of things we talked about on 1840

01:14:45,170 --> 01:14:42,960 off into other issues that impact our 1863 01:14:47,480 --> 01:14:45,180 society and our culture like today's 1864 01:14:49,790 --> 01:14:47,490 show so I have a number
