Agree w/ Frodi that the friend/enemy distinction in America is found in the domestic rather than international realm, owing to enmity between the groups. Therefore, technically, we seem to be in a state of civil war. Agree with Greg that one side isn’t fighting. So, on Schmidt’s analysis, can there be a one-sided and only sporadically violent state of civil war? In a similar vein Hobbes thought that a state of nature is a state of war in the sense of the ever-present possibility of violence.
This was an excellent episode. Both guys are articulate and acute thinkers. Frodi’s English is better than very many native speakers. And Greg’s combination of wide and deep reading made for a compelling evocation of Schmidt and the basics of politics among Homo sapiens.
Whites have been brainwashed for the last 70+ years into thinking that politics is most at home in the classroom when in fact the realities of politics, Us vs Them with the possibility of physical violence, are to be found on the playground.
Why dont counter currents use Disqus? It would make commenting so much easier.
Yes, very good episode.
Regarding “republicons just pretend there is no conflict”: well… the alternative is: when you acknowledge that there is the racial conflict, it puts you straightway to a)racial segregation, and b)the acknowledgement that the races are different. These are huge steps… huge steps! In all history of mankind, we did not have to perform this step! Because it had not been necessary hitherto. For the first time in history, we have to speak the final word on this question. It wasn´t necessary until now because there was no real mixing of populations. With globalisation, easy global traffic, this question has now at last become acute. Psychologically, that is of-course a huge, and difficult, step to take: to finally finally admit that, no matter how clever and doable the idea sounds, it´s impossible, it doesn´t work, it will never work, it´s over. It needs racial segregation. Gigantic taboo, huge step to take.
But what does it take to finally make Whites accept that reality? Very difficult!: it seems to me that Whites would only be ready for racial segregation in case of huge bloody action. Therefore, the enemy applies the boiling-frog strategy to prevent exactly that, prevent open war that would enable Whites to jump ship and save themselves, but rather, the enemy wears us down piece by piece with law-fare, financial warfare, discouraging White procreation etc. until we are the minority, then it´s Southafrica-style.
Lastly I would like to say: nobody really thinks that a world without conflict is possible. It´s just the usual ruse, use something that the typically idealistic White falls for, and pursue entirely different objectives behind that curtain: they just want to establish THEIR rule. Not peace among
equals, not the elimination of conflict but simply: they rule the world.
The podcast has kept me thinking. Reminded me of something Samuel Huntington wrote, which has served as a crucial taxonomy of relationships for me, one that I wish Whites would learn and internalize. Following him, we
“must learn to distinguish among our true friends who will be with us and we with them through thick and thin; opportunistic allies with whom we have some but not all interests in common; strategic partner-competitors with whom we have a mixed relationship; antagonists who are rivals but with whom negotiation is possible; and unrelenting enemies who will try to destroy us unless we destroy them first.”
And as Lee Harris pointed out after 9/11, (White) Americans and indeed the whole West have forgetten even the concept of “enemy.”
I hope the savagery of the last months will wake a few more of us up to the reality of “unrelenting enemies who will try to destroy us unless we destroy them first.”
Fróði’s comment on “lies” was especially pertinent. Jews decided that whites were their enemy and justified it to whites post facto.
WWII: “Germans were evil;” actually, Germans took their own side in defiance of Judaism; but now the Holohoax justifies Ally firebombing of civilians, Rheinwiesenlager, the rape of all German women ages eight to eighty, etc…
Civil Rights: “whites were evil (and still are);” actually, whites had their own states; but now that the Marxian-Boasian lie is believed—that all members of “the human race” are “equal”—it becomes unjustified for whites to have any of their own states.
BLM race riots: “police are evil;” actually, Floyd was a convicted criminal, he resisted arrest, and died of cardiac arrest (not asphyxiation); Officer Chauvin was doing his job, which was to flush the streets of criminals like Floyd, subduing them with force if necessary; but because of the lies of “institutional racism” and media editorialism (both lies born of Jewish hatred of whites): Floyd is a saint, Chauvin is a murderer, and we can’t have police any more.
Absurd premises, genocidal conclusions. How “moral!”
Humans are tribal in their struggle to survive; Germany and whites did nothing wrong. Damning one’s own race is suicidal; the abolition of police authority and denial of justice for whites, are both daggers guided to the white man’s heart by his Hebrew “countrymen.” But realism undermines genocidal lies. Lies must be crushed and liars must be excluded from our politics and our societies.

Thank you Greg and Fróði for this introduction! Since “Current Right” (Kosher Right) politics are headed off a cliff, we need men like you guys to lay the foundation for New/Future Right politics. Looking at “Old Right” thinkers through a modern nationalist lens is exactly the type of content that I think will be most fruitful for this audience. With better ideas, the white man will dig himself out of his grave. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk5fAvpwtKU
