So wonderful. Matt’s such a beautiful genius. I’m so desperate to learn something new, and Matt never disappoints—always impressing me beyond expectations every single time he speaks on history & politics. Tim Kirby is an amazing great mind, too. So sincerely, Thank you, guys.

Baphomet’s face obscured by a leaf? Why is his statue behind King Charles at all? Is that his majesty’s god?

This is quite brilliant, Matt.

Canadians are subjects of The Crown; essentially property of The Crown; chattel. Their governments are not properly trustees of the people but instead trustees of The Crown and its property, human and otherwise. Pretending that is otherwise is the most problematic of lies.

I am presently reading what may be the most important forgotten book of the 20th Century: "Eugenics and Other Evils Illustrated" by Gilbert Keith Chesterton.

Published in 1922, he writes about today.

And western government worsened and worsening.

.....so, just finished up Part 1 and, for the MOST part, appreciated your clarification of TRUE Western history, Matthew (I could go even further - as believe YOU to have previously, and legitimately suggest the United States has NEVER been truly 'free' from, independent of British-Roman-Canaanite Empire control; Treaties of both Paris & Versailles QUITE demonstrative of that reality) but, MUST take MAJOR exception with your characterization of 'twentysomething poets'; such HEALTHY catharsis, expression (VITAL to augmentation of my OWN spiritual path starting three decades ago) is a FOUNDATIONAL aspect of evolved, HUMANE societies (including THIS one; rightfully-esteemed Enlightenists Thoreau - a LEADING Libertarian and effective successor to Daniel Shays here in MA; Hawthorne, Emerson & Longfellow) which can SPAWN entrepreneurial, GENUINELY-altruistic impulses - Ben Franklin HIMSELF, just ONE of MANY such Americans.....yeah, I do GET it - a LOT of such 'green', comparatively-youthful sentiment ISN'T so hot but, STILL an ESSENTIAL First Amendment exercise.....
