Thank you for introducing me to Leonarda Jonie. Very based, indeed!
She mentioned her admiration for Tim Dillon. For those unfamiliar with him, here is Dillon musing on TikTok and the downfall of civilization:

Great interview. Downright inspiring in parts. The fact that she hasn’t been canceled or run out of town by the people who definitely don’t control the entertainment industry gives me genuine optimism.
Greg @ 19:20 — “Totalitarian ideologies always demand that you live a lie, or else!”
Leonarda: “Yes, because they can break you….”
Leonarda @ 21:10 — “The trans thing is the ultimate shit test. It is there to see how far they have broken your consciousness. If they can get you to call this 6’2″ dude with a beard in a dress ‘Ma’am/she/her’ they know they’ve won. They’ve conquered the territory of your mind, and you will never object to anything.”
Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

The Revenge of the Cis guys goofed on a clip showing bill burr throw a hissy fit over billy corgan that apparently the two may be half-brothers. Didn’t burr used to be one of the “based” funny people who still defied after so many just bent the knee to pc? frankie boyle is a disgrace, jim jefferies, colbert, jon ‘stewart’, howard stern, jim norton?, stuttering john, and so on. That black wife of his must have really fucked him up. So far Nick DiPaolo hasn’t become an unfunny approved borecuck but I think he’s still on the dembad maga train. His racialist beliefs stay in his Boston head, not for the crowd. Glad to see this girl still has spine.
This was a really interesting interview. What struck me was the Albanian view of the Kosovo War – although it was a view filtered by place and time.
I had a very small involvement in the conflict while I was in the army. Unofficial word came to my brigade that we would be sent to Kosovo and so unit movement books were consulted, vehicles were prepared for the rail yard, protective masks checked, and various individual training qualifications hurriedly carried out. The maneuvers that year were exhausting, and then the war ended sooner than expected so we didn’t go anywhere. I always thought American involvement there was pointless, but perhaps some good came out of it.
Good interview. I like how you let her talk. It’s an encouraging time. Perhaps these ideas are getting into the mainstream
11/10
A fantastic interview, a real surprise. She distilled the ideas perfectly.
Looking forward to her future c-c appearances. Thank you for putting her on our radar.
I always enjoy C-C Radio, and especially enjoyed this one! I found the young lady, Leonarda, to be refreshingly frank in her commentary. She clearly is not dogmatic in her beliefs; just very, very sincere. Her comment about the sh#t test is absolutely brilliant, and much appreciation to commenter Gary for transcribing it for posterity.
