A friend of mine I've known for 35 years. I share this video with him. And now he doesn't talk to me. He blocked me. I thought it was funny. I thought it would give him some perspective. He's a MAGA guy. . I won't say it doesn't hurt to lose someone you know for someone you've known for so long. But if he's that self-absorbed that he cannot find the humor and honesty in this. I'm glad he's gone.
Sounds like a tool. If you can't share a vid like this without hurting his fragile ego then he probably isn't worth the effort. I had a mate who went MAGA type weird (or the UK equivalent) and I just couldn't be arsed in the end. I didn't really care about his political opinions at first, but he'd just go on about them all the time knowing I disagreed to bait me into arguments. Stopped being fun and just became a chore.
The French fleet blocked the British reinforcements and bombarded Yorktown from the water to cause the British defeat in the revolutionary war. No US without the French.
Actually, the British saved the colonists from the French. Then when the British asked the colonists to pay the piper, the colonists got the French to save them from the British.
+Eric van Bezooijen The answer to that is easy - it's not the same person. When they are soo many, some will of course steal the jobs the youth would get normally. They will get jobs politically allocted by the government (payed for by tax dollars). The major portion of immigrants will indirectly be stealing jobs by simply costing the society so much, the necessary increase in taxes will choke the free market to produce jobs.
impalaSS65 Automation is killing our workforce, not the immigrants taking up harvesting and low totem restaurant jobs. Even those jobs are threatened by automation.
hmmm....doesn't get onto Israel, China, Japan, or Korea for being a people with a national identity-curious? What's this guy's skill set again; wouldn't he be a laborer if he wasn't a douche willing to sell his own people out for marginal chuckles. This is all anti-white coded, and you won't see anyone in mass media that holds a counter position to this POS. This is supposed to be edgy, and its the same ol since 1965 when Johnson sold the country out.
acidtooth nationalists are bad for society. Nationalism destroys cooperation by banning relationships that they don’t approve of. All because of the identity of the people that want those relationships. Nationalism is cancer.
Have followed Stanhope's comedy career for almost 2 decades. A lot of his comedy is fairly profound and usually truthful...on top of that it is still relevant, especially today. Will never get tired of hearing him rant.
for years I just knew him as the guy on those sleazy girls gone wild commercials. I didn't find out until years later that he's actually a pretty good stand-up comedian. and I'm saying this as someone who generally hates stand-up comedy
"The difference between patriotism and nationalism is that the patriot is proud of his country for what it does, and the nationalist is proud of his country no matter what it does; the first attitude creates a feeling of responsibility, but the second a feeling of blind arrogance that leads to war." Sydney J. Harris
Lol, that's such a dumb take. Nationalism is just about the recognition that the people of that nation are a distinct ethnicity and culture, who have an understood shared history and heritage, but more importantly, values. Sydney J. Harris was a lefty/liberal of his time, but just look what those principles have spawned and where they have go us to today; generations of dysfunctional degenerates who have lost all sense of identity and thus crave a Socialist utopia, that himself Harris opposed. Harris confuses 'Nationalism' with Facism, because he wasn't smart enough to see the difference at that time, whereas you don't have that excuse, other than also not being smart.
I was accused of being unpatriotic for not supporting our invasion of Iraq. I'm not a patriot. I'm a nationalist who loves America and the American way of life. War is patriotism in action even when we're the bad guys. Patriotism and globalism are the betrayers of Nationalism.
@@UltraVert That's your definition, not mine. I like this quote about Nationalism: "My nationalism, fierce though it is, is not exclusive, is not devised to harm any nation or individual." ~ Mahatma Gandhi
I think nationalists don’t realize that their system is unsustainable and is based in perversion and delusion. Cooperation is what took us out of the Stone Age. Isolationism is a recipe for disaster.
@@madvillain1987I’d bet my bottom dollar they couldn’t even define socialism without a dictionary and/or Google to help them. CHUD’s just regurgitate their nonsense they have no actual education, or knowledge just mindless propaganda.

"All of a sudden you take accomplishment in something that you had no part of." - I always think about this phrase when someone says to me that "White people did this" or "Black people created that" or "Women are responsable for x" and all this type of thing.
United Statesian, French, German, Egyptian, White..... (One of these things is not like the others) Who is it who divided man up by so called "white" and so called "black" skin colors to establish this modern day you and I were born into?
@@TheHardys01 Dead people who I didn't meet. Gash, I was just saying that feeling proud of being 'member of a group who did something despite you having no participation in it' was stupid, and that this idea is not limitated towards nationalist thinking, but towards other categories such as gender and ethnicity. I don't see exactly what your point is with your comment that someone created these categories. (And if you trying to say that it was the white men or something, I will answer that I am a white guy who had no participation in the creation of these categories and refuse to take blame for something that I was not personally involved, just as I don't take credit for something that I wasn't personaly involved.)

Its sad, everyone wants to think their people are the best & they have so much pride in being whatever they are yet they have never been anything else so can't really compare.
@@paullayfield and they don't even know who THEY really are themselves. It is essential to nationalist views to rewrite a glorified history and ignore any former atrocities, making themselves "victims" to liberalism and equality.
As much as I love Bill Burr, and I really do, everyone who praises him and considers him underrated (ridiculous, he's probably the best paid, and most appreciated behind C.K. and Gaffigan) must not realize he is diet Stanhope. To me at least, the discrepancy in Stanhope and Bill's talent is almost equal the discrepancy in their ambition. Just my opinion and I love them both.
To an extent I agree with Bill Burr (at the time you wrote the comment) Bill Burr was on the come up. But I definitely agree that Stanhope is underrated. Damn shame
Bill Hicks was great as well, though he got more preachy than funny at times *cough* goat boy *cough* “A young man on acid” is a timeless bit though. RIP
Green Space Seriously?!? You Right-Wingers are just as dumb as the “liberals” you can’t stand. America is the greatest country in the world because it’s always been a land of opportunity, the country would’ve never grown without immigration or become a world power without mass immigration throughout its history, I wouldn’t call winning wars National Pride either, a draft existed, it was kill or be killed. I’m pretty sure WWI and II were started because of too much Nationalism from certain countries. Patriotic citizens don’t blindly do whatever the government asks them to do either. Don’t listen to comedy if you’re just gonna get triggered
@A A Like Donald Trump, globalist businessman with ties to the Russian Mafia? Or all the Christian Republicans caught with gay prostitutes or little boys?
The most important point about the French is that without their navy, the war for our independence would’ve either gone on for much longer or failed. So, we should honor France for that, and not forget it. Of course the main point was to undermine their largest rival, the British Empire, but nonetheless they were very important to the Revolutionary War.
@@Stuckinair I'm a nationalist and I've never been ostracized for being critical or skeptical of the military industrial complex. Things aren't quite as simplistic as you appear to think they are. No sensible person doubts we're in a capitalist country, so what's your point? What is the correct alternative in your view?
@xirsamoht x Yet you failed to counter his "stupid" argument with a smarter one. Simply calling one's argument "stupid" is not an argument, and ironically makes you look stupid.
Never watched the show really but in history it's usually something like. Well, kill it or die. Most successful people I've seen or heard of were ones that were caught off guard as a whole with what they should do morally or to support themselves a little longer term than that. Cannibalism and theft rule out almost everything else in extreme cases most of the time no matter where or who though... Eh, we'll be fine unless a 747 full of us crashes somewhere and a few live through the impact. Got some beef jerky to buy me time to make a knife. Lol

"The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living." - Some German guy “Dead people’s baggage, stop carrying it” - Doug Stanhope
Except now instead of nationalists, the critique more closely applies to progressive identity groups who claim to be affected by things which never happened to them personally, and who demand legal sanctions against people they dislike.
Really. Two fucking world wars, a dozen or so genocides, and American foreign policy (as dictated by Israel) over the last 100+ years, and you've only just noticed? Must be that quality education of yours as let you figure it out so quickly, yeah?
Nationalism has saved countries, the lives of countless people, and kept culture and a way of life to many, many regions since the idea of nationalism was first thought by the French, the Irish being the first to adopt that idea Do not let later dictators/ presidents askew a notion that was, and still is, a noble ambition Protection of lives and way of life Nothing more But like everything, it has branched off, lost its morals and ethics, and custom picked by people to mean various ideals Nationalism because of this means something different, depending what part of the world you are in Also, Stanhope is the man Peace
when i first saw this a couple years ago i was mad at stanhope for essentially shitting on something which i found extremely important but after dwelling on it i realized he's absolutely right and now i fuckin love him.
"If we didn't save the French in WWII they'd be speaking German right now." If the French didn't help us in the Revolutionary War we might still be apart of the UK right now.
@CODY ADAMS Yeah unfortunately the French were fighting both world wars for 3 years before you fucking idiots decided to join in (you were too busy arming the Nazis for the beginning of WW2) so yeah...brag about that as much as you like. it's like having a healthy athlete compete in the special Olympics, then mocking the cripples for being disabled after he wins gold
@@billyosullivan4514 Except you didn't save them. the allies including the Canadians saved them. sure, America came along for the ride.... this is a common argument from uneducated Americans when discussing Britain in WW2. "the brits would be speaking German if it weren't for america". not even close.....the Germans were driven into the sea in the Battle of Britain while American airmen were prohibited from joining due to the US-Nazi neutrality pact. Only 9 US airmen risked arrest by joining in the Battle of Britain....compared to hundreds of Canadians and thousands of Polish. so yeah, thank you for your service, you traitorous cowards.
Agree to share w/ younger generations & let them find w/ in themselves to discern when some one like Doug shares from experiential spirit ~the gems to ponder within down cathartic bone marrow w/ heart speak~for each unique
Its all subversive bullshit. There is nothing wrong with loving your country. Well....unless you are a globalist and want to dominate the world. Wake up, start by watching a documentary called "Europa- The Last Battle". Ignorance is bliss.....until you wake up in a gulag, or have to boil a leather boot for your kids dinner!
Please help me out! *What other talented comedian(s) are missing from this list?* - Doug Stanhope - Anthony Jeselnik - Bill Burr - Jim Jefferies - Louis C.K. I’m particularly interested to hear from people who at least agree on most names I’ve already mentioned above. Should you not recognize the ones that I included in my list, enjoy checking them out!
A great piece of material. Doug, you are one of the best living comedians today and I truly mean that. You really have, for your whole career, been brilliant in such a way that makes you very relatable while dropping some great truths and points of view on various important subjects. And you're so funny in a disturbing kind of way. Some of the things you talk about would frighten most people away, but this sort of dark poetry is reminiscent of Bill Hicks' material on the antichrist and Rush Limbaugh.
Man, I love how he dismantles the use of the word "we" for the joke's punch line: "WE should shut the fuck up," as in YOU should shut the fuck up, as in YOU didn't do jack-shit, which reinforces the whole premise of the joke. It's a brilliantly structured bit while still sounding like it's off-the-cuff.
Rather like the "we" adopted by progressive identity groups, as they claim all sorts of indulgences for things which never happened to them personally.
I'm going to see Doug live in West Columbia, SC in 2 days. It will be my 3rd time seeing him do his act live. I'm pretty excited about it. Both times he hung out and drank with the audience after the show. Doug is a Legend!
reminds me of watching Bill Hicks again last weekend, this is just as good 10 years after it was recorded and will be just as good in another 10 years as well
My favorite part about this video is how clearly you can tell people in the comment section that disagree are the exact archetype of moron that Doug is talking about.
people seemed to think Jingoism = Nationalism. Nationalism is just a right for an ethnic group people with shared language, culture and history a right to self determination.
@Deus Vult. It's kinda like George Carlin videos. Depending on who he's bashing, many comments tend to read like this "I love George Carlin!, but in regards to this, he's wrong"
@@anthonybelvin2085 Did you miss the part where Doug is describing where he lives and that he can watch border patrol pick these guys up as they cross the border? And you think he doesn't know the difference between an illegal immigrant or legal immigrant? Imagine thinking you have the right to call anyone else a moron when you can barely comprehend a stand up routine. Jesus.
@@collectiveconscious2670 He's an obnoxious and clueless loudmouth. I'm from Texas. I've lived here my whole life and we don't like people like drug stanhope. Have you listened to how liberal politicians and Bush refer to illegal immigrants? They call them immigrants and so does drug. He may know the difference but he calls illegal border crossers, immigrants which indicates he's a dummy, like you. He's from back east so he can fuck off and die.
@@williambell6611 UK is overrun by African 3rd world Muslims who want to kill them and you go to jail if notice it and mention it online. Stanhope is a lifetime alcoholic who aged like a white dog terd.
It's an act. The beer is a prop. You seriously can't be hammered and be a successful comedian, but you can drink a couple of beers ('specially American beer) on stage as part of the show.
Carl bailey Either that’s a joke or you don’t know who Doug Stanhope is. If you know anything about the man than you know that beer is definitely not a prop
If by “Prop” you mean medicine that keeps him functioning and stops shakes and seizures, then YES...definitely a prop. Have you ever seen him pre-show somewhere? Sometimes he’s perspiring profusely and shaking, until he beckons for a few cups of Jagermeister and/or something stronger. I’ve watched him down them with both relief and complete disgust. And magically, the sweating stops. So do the shakes. His delivery changes, he feels comfortable in his own skin again...and he’s able to do his job. Normal people (non-alcoholics) actually sweat more from drinking. If someone stops sweating after downing a shot or two, they be physically dependent. What a terrifying paradox to be living in. Doug is a comedian’s comedian. He’s brilliant, turbulent and self-deprecating...all while basically laying down modern versions of Aesop’s Fables. Come for the chuckles, stay for the teachings. He’s not a god, but I’d be willing to stretch things and maybe call him a modern-day prophet. Like Chappelle, O’Neal, Carlin, Mooney, etc...he helps us to see through the bullshit and laugh at it right before the pile comes crashing down on us.
The same George Carlin that said "When fascism comes to America, it will not be in brown and black shirts. It will not be with jack-boots. It will be Nike sneakers and Smiley shirts."

nationalism doesn't equal hatred of other ethnicites; the reason why we have 'nations' is because everyone nowadays are inherently nationalists. Without nationalists, everyone would still be solely tied to their local neighborhoods and towns like those of the medieval ages. Without this evil nationalism, we wouldn't have America, South America, India, Italy, Germany, etc., these are all nations that formed by either taking similar language regions and peoples and putting them under one national flag and land, or separating themselves from a foreign empire that's culturally different from them.
Tieflingamer yeah, we don’t hate other ethnicities, we just don’t want other ethnicities around us. Kinda like saying, I love you but stay the hell away from me.
Rocky Troxell ya, but there wouldn’t be all the nations within it as there are now as it would’ve been all Spain and then Brazil would’ve been Portugal
Tieflingamer accidentally showing up to a small location somewhere on a continent and forming a tax system doesn’t require you to be faithful to that new system. It’s just a practical issue to pool money for roads and other local projects. It doesn’t mean you are now married to this new system and have to make sure more people don’t come in to participate just like you did. And who are you to decide for everybody if a Spanish speaker can come to Brazil and live there?
