Hi Matt! Thanks for another great material covered and discussed! In this interview you mentioned a series of Plato's dialogs and the sequential order in which you recommended approach reading it, could you please share it with me and anyone else interested Thank you in advance!

Sure! I'd recommend starting with the Apology, Meno and Phaedo, followed by the Meno (on Virtue), then Gorgias (on living a good life), then Philebus (on judging good vs evil). Once you have those internalized there are a few directions to swim, but I'd highly recommend the Theatetus (on Knowledge), the Sophist and the Statesman, followed by Protagoras. Then when you have a solid instinct for Plato's technique of irony, play and paradox formation, then plunge into the Republic and Timaeus. Whatever you do, don't start with the Republic and Timaeus first. They require a foundation

To understand Khazaria one has to understand Judaism , which according to some historians was a creation of the Persian Empires Cyrus the Great. It was modeled after Persias own religion of Zoroastrianism after conquering Babylon and colonizing what we know as Palestine or Israel with a new religion promoted by Babylonian residents who had migrated to Babylon from Palestine generations ago. It was in fact a proselytizing religion that spread far and wide throughout the region and was not limited to Palestine. The diaspora began long before the fall of the second temple.

Most eventually converted Christianity or Islam in the generations following the destruction of the second temple although during the transition there were many still practicing Judaism. There were actually different sects of Judaism with some continuing to proselytize but eventually what was left of Judaism became dominated by Rabbis who kept Judaism as an exclusive religion as Christian leaders criminalized converting to Judaism

This history does not fit the elites promoted narrative so is suppressed, although truth be told I don't think we can trust any history, especially going back that far.

Interviewing is a studied skill. The key part is staying out of the way.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against property rights at all. But everything must be given its place and it shouldn't become a religion before which everything else bows. In the case of the western oligarchical hive, this is a major component of the mechanism of control and transmission of their system across the generations.

I'm not sure if you've actually heard what I'm clearly saying: Property rights are fine. The oligarchy's control mechanism is through the transmission of their fondis and estates which is what I stated in the dialogue video and in my comment to you. Regarding Austrian school economics: It's just a Hapsburg imperial re-tooling of the British Empire's Adam Smith who generated his Wealth of Nations for political effects and not as a function of any concern for truth. I suggest reading my expose on von Hayek and Mises here: https://canadianpatriot.org/2021/01/14/counter-gang-von-hayek-revives-mandevilles-hellfire-club-in-the-20th-century/ AND yes, Hayek advocates a world government to enforce the rules of his proposed system
