So enjoyed listening to this - so carefully and deliberately delivered - it articulated my very own thinking and was grateful to hear it articulated. Wish our decision makers would hear this and be helped to understand the thinking of ‘ordinary’ citizens which they seem to be totally ignorant of in their policy making and decisions. Thank you for it.
I've recently signed up to Peterson Academy and have had a keen interest in Nigel Biggars "deconstructing colonialisim". Glad to hear from a like mind brother, thankyou for the video. Praise God.
Hi Dave new sub here. As a child of the sixties, born in 61, I recognise what you say about the changes to this country. My Mum was from a mining family in the Rother Valley, Yorkshire and my Dad, the West County. Although I've lived all my life down south, there is a bit of a northerner in me.
Hey guys brilliant to be heading up to 350 subscribers !!!! Wow !!!! I do NOT have a flashy studio or flashy guests. Just a bald scouser . With some views, thank you for your patience and good grace.
Hi David, Thanks for your post, very interesting. As a fellow boomer I can recognise the world you knew even though I am a Southerner. How grateful we were to Liverpool in the 60s. I was able to listen to your views while tidying my desk. I would be interested in your views of the animosity currently directed at the Boomers. I understand the Chancellor takes a very dim view of us and will be taking more than just our winter fuel allowance. Happy Days!
Indeed. Interesting. We're all , to an extent, a product ''of our time''. I nagged my Dad to tell me stories of his time in North Africa, Sicily, italy and D Day etc. What a pain I was. The consensus amongst that generation seemed to be we gave 4 or 5 years of our young lives, we just want to forget it all and make a ''new start'' etc. I think ''Boomers'' get quite a raw deal; I well remember the recessions of the traditional industries in the 1980s, it was no walk in the park for many. When I came down South I was shocked (in 1987) how much a small terraced home cost back then. It is, as they say , all relative. I am quite tempted to look next at the 'Reform' phenomenon and I'd wager you a pint, that Farage will be a right thorn in Starmer's side and whoever the new Tory leader is. God bless you sir.
May I ask folk who want to read deeper to consider these three people ? 1. Douglas Murray - Acclaimed Author & Journalist 2. Professor Mat Goodwin - University of Kent 3. Professor Nigel Biggar - University of Oxford
A good man in the street summary. Describes the manifestation of globalism but ignores its historical development. Marxist theorist Althusser’s “storming of the institutions” (what we call the Establishment) by communist acolytes across the globe was complete by 1990. The hard work happened close to (your) home, at Manchester Polytechnic and University, by the academic Stuart Hall and colleagues, who adapted Frankfurt School neo-Marxism to create euphemistically camouflage-named “Cultural Studies” aka critical race theory. If you read Hall’s work it reeks of hatred and reverse bigotry. I highly recommend giving it a read. Hall’s disguised dogma was adopted and promulgated throughout the education systems of the Western world, from Australia to America. Self-hatred of our European culture as racist and colonialist, guilt and shame induction of our youth on a mass scale, about their gender and national history, essentialist man-hating feminism, and the expansion and blurring of gender was baked into Cultural Studies which was taught to all students going through the school systems of those countries from 1990 onwards and here is the shocker: it is still taught today. The deception worked, from the schools neoMarxism bled into the legacy media, and bureaucracies, and formed the basis for racist socioglobalists - supranationalist globocrats - these are Marxists in cahoots with global corporations (much like Ford Motor worked with Nazi Germany) - to achieve a shared goal of the free flow of cheap labor across national boundaries and smashing the middle class. This above forms the substratum or foundation of the changes you so ably describe. The forgotten and golden years of post War Europe to our present dystopia are filled with a gaggle of bad and essentially neoracist actors who have largely accomplished their goals.
Brilliant thank you for the expansion there; you're absolutely correct (I like the man in the street comment it reminded me of ''The man on the Clapham Omnibus'' often widely used, from years ago LOL) .I've left out some large ''chunks'' of recent socio-political history indeed, you're right. Thanks for the additional material/background. I found that helpful From my end I found this little book useful - ''How Woke Won - The Elitist Movement That Threatens Democracy, Tolerance & Reason''' by Joanna Williams helpful. . Also three other sources I regularly use are: * Douglas Murray - Acclaimed Author & Journalist (read 2 of his 3 books so far) * Professor Mat Goodwin - University of Kent (various RU-vid presentations but must buy his book) * Professor Nigel Biggar - University of Oxford (reading Biggar's book atm & have just started it looks like a stonking read so far ). PS Andrew Roberts book on ''Churchill'' is a long but very decent read and I would argue Churchill has played a fair influence on Britain post 1965 for all sorts of reason; his shadow was/is long.
