6:03 pm
country, and we will bring them to justice. >> the police service in northern ireland says those involved in violence, which erupted following anti—immigration protests in belfast, will be dealt with using the full force of the law. it's after a supermarket owner in belfast says his business has been reduced to ashes after it was targeted during the disorder. northern ireland's first minister, michelle o'neill, says those involved in violence on the streets of belfast should be quickly brought to the courts. this morning, a clean up operation was underway in the donegall road area following last night's unrest . road area following last night's unrest. number 10 sources are disputing claims that sir keir starmer is planning a summer getaway tomorrow, despite the risk of further unrest. it comes after tory leadership candidate, former immigration minister robert jenrick, urged the prime minister to cancel his trip and get a grip on the situation. many more arrests have been promised in the coming days, as

6:06 pm
better . instead, crisis follows better. instead, crisis follows crisis. war follows war. erosion of freedom follows. erosion of freedom . it's plain to anyone freedom. it's plain to anyone who's looking that the pitiful leaders petitions cause the problems and then offer pre—prepared solutions that benefit only them and those pulling the strings. are you as free as before? as free as you want to be? are you happy? are you well? are you confident about your children's future? and if not, why not? why would you put up with this rotten state? we're told we live in a world of technological and pharmaceutical solutions to all ills. we're also told war is peace. it's all lies and double speak. i say it's unmistakeable and undeniable that something, somewhere has gone badly wrong, probably long ago. and that a succession of unwanted leaders only make matters worse , were only make matters worse, were offered and then made to endure the worst possible leaders at the worst possible leaders at the worst possible leaders at the worst of times . for years the worst of times. for years now, the craven mouthpieces of
6:07 pm
the state have pushed a relentlessly anti—human agenda. american author eric hoffer said in the true believer that no one can be honourable unless he honours mankind. people, we are told fellow human beings, are the ultimate problem requiring the ultimate problem requiring the ultimate problem requiring the ultimate solution, which is to say fewer of us save the planet and to hell with the people alive on it here and now. some of the richest and therefore most influential people talk casually about there being too many of us alive in the world at one time. how dare they? who are these people who stand in judgement, presuming to make decisions about who has a right to be here? they preach the need for smaller, colder, hungner the need for smaller, colder, hungrier lives for all of us. from the decks of superyachts and the steps of private jets , and the steps of private jets, global population reduction has been an objective of the west since at least the 1970s. and i do mean at least henry kissinger drove such an agenda while
6:08 pm
advising us president gerald ford, he said that population control policy requires both high level attention and continuing review and updating . continuing review and updating. it observes that us efforts must be undertaken in such a way as to minimise criticism. it's been there in the background or even in the foreground ever since . in the foreground ever since. population reduction equals anti—human. anyone who says that fewer people are the solution to the problem is a psychopath. we've somehow enabled an environment, an ecosystem in which psychopaths thrive and prosper. agenda 2030 is in part the continuation of the same malthusian eugenicist attitudes that are never far away . final that are never far away. final solutions. it's an agenda that is anti—human almost by definition. given that achievement of the global goals of agenda 2030 will likely lead to billions of deaths by starvation and by the pestilence and chaos that travel alongside man made hunger. birth rates are falling all over the world already and have been for
6:09 pm
generations. too few babies are born, and so indigenous populations are disappearing. in the 1960s, americans were having, on average, 3.65 children by now it's 1.66, and children by now it's1.66, and still the powers that be insist there are too many of us. people are the problem. we're told people are the problem right enough, but not the billions at the bottom of the pyramid, rather the few thousands at the top. since 2020, we've been made top. since 2020, we've been made to listen to talk of a great reset, a new world order led by davos man and his pampered ilk. there's something horribly casual about all of this a casual about all of this a casual disregard for human life, a casual disregard for humanity itself. the implicit message we're fed is that since there are too many people, too many of the wrong sort of people, at least that many of those people are therefore expendable . as are therefore expendable. as a consequence, life has got cheap or even cheaper than before. what's a few hundred thousand men and boys cold in the clay of ukraine? what's a few tens of thousands of women and children
6:10 pm
in gaza ? our leaders like war. in gaza? our leaders like war. we can tell this because they keep pouring the fuel of money onto the fires of wars burning now in ukraine, in the middle east, and elsewhere. our economies literally thrive on death and destruction, courtesy of the military industrial complex. they talk blithely about more war with russia, with china, with iran, with north korea. peace has been made a dirty word. and so there's talk, too, of fresh armies, bigger armies, more bodies. there's talk too , of civil war all over talk too, of civil war all over the west, internecine strife, civil unrest stoked by those that thrive and seek to gain from chaos. mass migration around the world is a symptom of the metastasising cancer of chaos. people have been on the move from countries ruined by western interference, ruined by invasion by bombing, by engineered regime change. as the people up and move, our rotten leaders respond to the upheaval by throwing open the doors,
6:11 pm
dissolving borders, defaming indigenous populations as intolerant in the face of the arrival of strangers, their arrival of strangers, their arrival by the millions, sowing more chaos. for years now decades, we, the people all over the world have been put on edge, set at each other's throats, black against white against brown, christian against muslim against jew. people bleed and die. homes and businesses burn. the rich just get richer and the powerful just gain more power. on the eve of britain's entry into the first world war, foreign secretary sir edward grey uttered his famous line the lamps are going out all over europe. we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime. grey was going blind then, so that it's not clear which descending darkness he was referring to, but he saw darkness coming just the same as a consequence of disregard for the sanctity of every human life, we're surrounded by a gathering darkness. the casual , surrounded by a gathering darkness. the casual, anti—human nature of our leaders and of the states they profess to lead, states made rotten by our
6:12 pm
leaders. corruption is undeniable and unavoidable . undeniable and unavoidable. something is rotten in the state, and the stink of it comes from our leaders. a fish rots from our leaders. a fish rots from the head as they say, in search of the source of the stink. we shouldn't look from side to side at each other, but up above, among the so—called elite, they would have us lose sight of what it really means to be human and alive instead of valuing one another. the possibilities therein. they would prefer that we fear one another and so make that happen . another and so make that happen. canadian anthropologist wade davis said the myriad cultures of the world make up a web of spiritual life and cultural life that envelops the planet, and is as important to the well—being of the planet as indeed is. the biological web of life. in a talk he gave in 2010, he told his audience that at the time they were born, there were 6000 languages spoken on the planet, but by then, by 2010, only half of those survived. every two weeks or so. a language dies.
6:13 pm
apparently an elder dies and with him or her is lost forever. a whole way of comprehending reality. davis said. every language is not just a vocabulary and a grammar, but rather a flash of the human spirit, he said. every language is an old growth forest of the mind, a watershed, a thought , an mind, a watershed, a thought, an ecosystem of spiritual possibilities. we should be better than we are being made now. davis speaks about the kogi people of colombia, who regard themselves as the elder brothers of the world and see us the younger , unwise brothers younger, unwise brothers responsible for destroying the world. the so—called green agendais world. the so—called green agenda is the industrialised destruction of the world. right enough. destruction of the world. right enough . unesco, the united enough. unesco, the united nafions enough. unesco, the united nations educational, enough. unesco, the united nations educational , scientific nations educational, scientific and cultural organisation, records the stuff of intangible cultural heritage around the world, rather than things that can be touched architecture, artefacts, art, the intangibles
6:14 pm
are what people know and only carry in their heads and hearts. so folklore, cuisine , customs, so folklore, cuisine, customs, beliefs, traditions, knowledge, language with every single human being lost or left unborn , we being lost or left unborn, we lose something else. intangible, which is their contribution great or small? any man's death diminishes me, for i am involved in mankind instead of the poet's kindly thoughts. inclusive in the true and uncorrupted sense of the word, we are given to believe that fewer people is better, that less of us is more. this is a sinister and insidious philosophy, a bitter seed sown, and we are already reaping the harvest. ye shall know them by their fruits. every good tree bringeth forth good fruit. but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. i fail to see how anyone could look at our world now, and say, it's on the path to a good place. i fail to see how anyone could look at our leaders and say they are the ones to follow to that good place, corrupt trees and evil fruit. that's what they are. and that's what
6:15 pm
we get in this 21st century world of agenda 2030 and the rest of the anti—human agenda. we are growing more and more casual about the prospect. in fact , what casual about the prospect. in fact, what our leaders casual about the prospect. in fact , what our leaders evidently fact, what our leaders evidently regard as the necessity that the planet be rid of billions of us once and for all. i'm sickened by constantly hearing about the deaths of children , whether it deaths of children, whether it be in ones and twos and threes , be in ones and twos and threes, or by the tens of thousands children . dying is what happens children. dying is what happens when society is rendered anti—human at every level. here's the thing if the anti humanists get their way, if they inflict upon us their one size fits all top down, all powerful, all controlling, one world government, we will have been rendered into a homogenous monoculture , denied our monoculture, denied our individuality and our humanity. if they meet their objectives, we will be fewer , we will be we will be fewer, we will be poorer. and will we? we will we will have been remade in their empty image. the image of those who see themselves as nothing less than gods, and we as
6:16 pm
nothing more than dots on a spreadsheet of profit. wade davis said something else about how the other people of the world are not failed attempts at being us, that, on the contrary, every culture is a unique set of answers to the question of what it means to be human and alive . it means to be human and alive. if we would save the world, it will entail endeavouring to see each other as parts of the solution. if we would save the world, we will have to save every last one of us. joining me this week for the duration of the show, friend and journalist jasmine birtles. lovely to see you as always , jasmine. thank you as always, jasmine. thank you. do you feel that there's something rotten somewhere that we've lost the love of life? >> yes , yes, i agree so much. >> yes, yes, i agree so much. and you know, i was picking up some of the biblical references there because i do feel that we are in a time of revelation. and as i listen to you talking about
6:17 pm
the human and saving the human, my sense of saving the human is getting it back into the divine. i think when we separated ourselves and our sense of life, ourselves and our sense of life, our sense of humanity from divinity, then we set ourselves on a path of destruction and darkness. i'm thinking, you know , darkness. i'm thinking, you know, vaclav havel, said once that when a nation loses guard, it vaclav havel, said once that when a n finds itself under this mega machinery. of course , he was in machinery. of course, he was in a communist regime, so he knew about mega machinery, but it he was saying that at that time. and now man is trying to make himself like god, but actually he is then subjected to this mega machinery which is kind of where we are at now. as you say, it's inhuman. it it sees us as dots on a screen, nothing more. it sees us very much as expendable. we're a nuisance and it's cruel. whereas if we go back to the more of the sense of the divine, i'm thinking, you
6:18 pm
know, the sermon on the mount , know, the sermon on the mount, for example, which, which says, all sorts of things. blessed are the peacemakers, blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth, it talks about, meek, for they will inherit the earth, it talks about , turning earth, it talks about, turning the other cheek, loving your neighbour and loving your enemies as well as your neighbour. you know, if we could, if we could all each do just a little tiny bit of that, each of us doing a tiny bit of that would make a massive difference. and i do think that and our own desire for good, for light, each if each individual person can do whatever we can, however hopeless we feel that it might be. but to do whatever we can to get more of that light, more of that humanity embraced in divinity. then each one of us will together make a big difference. we really will. i don't think that it's hopeless at all. i think that's lovely , at all. i think that's lovely, what you said, >> and i agree completely. i wonder why didn't we see it coming ? you know, i mean, we've coming? you know, i mean, we've had centuries really of
6:19 pm
replacing meaning and, and humanity with technology and machinery. yes. it's not as though we couldn't have seen that when you eventually nudge machines into the predominant place that there will be a disregard for us messy biological human beings, human beings . beings. >> yes, i agree, i think much of it has been a gradual hypnosis. we haven't realised we've had entertainment, we've had an increase of convenience. you know, the road to hell is paved with convenience, as we know you've got convenience, you've got entertainment, music. i mean, i remember the ayatollah khomeini back in the day saying that, pop music was the opiate of the people or something along those lines. and i thought, actually, he's got a point. i mean, i was, you know, i was pretty young at the time, but i thought, it's a good point. we've got that. we've had we had sexualization of society, adults and now children, we've had all kinds of distractions sort of
6:20 pm
going look shiny , shiny. don't going look shiny, shiny. don't forget about, you know, what's the reality of what's really happening? shiny, shiny, so i think it's been a one big mass hypnosis, and i have to say, i am so grateful for what i call the blessed covid for opening my to eyes a whole load of stuff. not just, you know, the lies . not just, you know, the lies. yes. isn't it the irony? absolutely. and i really i keep calling it the blessed covid because it's like, you know, everything is sort of falling apart. all these layers upon layers of, of gunk. you go, well, that's lies and that's and i've believed all of this all of my life. and now i can see, obviously it's lies. duh what was i doing? >> the final big push to pull the wool over everyone's eyes and ironically , yes, it's under and ironically, yes, it's under bright light. yes, it did. what you're doing. what? why, yes . you're doing. what? why, yes. okay, we're on the break already. after which i'll be discussing the landmark ruling
6:21 pm
6:24 pm
gb news. welcome back to the neil oliver show. last year, a 19 year old girl known to the world only as s t, was told that she was delusional for wanting to fight for her life rather than have her life sustaining treatment withdrawn. only after her death was s t named as sudiksha tirumalai and her story properly told. sudiksha had been struggling with a degenerative
6:25 pm
mitochondrial disorder and was hoping experimental treatment in canada could save her life. but doctors from the university hospitals birmingham nhs foundation trust said that it was in her best interests that life sustaining treatment be withdrawn. this week, though, in a landmark ruling, the court of appeal overturned the decision of the court of protection, which declared that sudiksha lacked mental capacity to make decisions about her medical treatment. i'm joined now by human rights lawyer and legal counsel to the christian legal centre , roger kishka. thank you, centre, roger kishka. thank you, rogen centre, roger kishka. thank you, roger, for making time for us. >> thank you. neil, it's a pleasure to be on with you. >> roger this. when this story was brought to my attention last yeanl was brought to my attention last year, i thought it couldn't be true. i thought that can't be right. that can't be happening to a person who is of age, has been declared medically sound by independent psychiatrists. she wants to keep on fighting, and she's been told that's no longer
6:26 pm
her decision to make. and yet. and yet that's what happened . and yet that's what happened. >> yeah. i mean, it blows the mind, really. this was this was a young lady who was successfully completing her a levels, she had the strength and the will to live. she had said all along that she wants to die trying to live. she was well aware of the pain, the suffering, because she was going through it, yet she still wanted to live and get that treatment in canada. she had two consultant psychiatrists vouch for her competency. there was no psychiatrist on the other side saying she wasn't competent . yet saying she wasn't competent. yet the court of protection took the side of the clinicians and not the psychiatrists , merely the psychiatrists, merely because she wouldn't accept their their diagnosis. and that alone, they suggested, was a sign of mental incompetence. >> exactly. i mean, it beggars belief that all this time later, a subsequent decision has been made that will. no, that was a mistake. and she was right all along. that decision of the court of protection at the time
6:27 pm
did that set a kind of precedent or was that already a precedent that was there based on, you know , previous decisions ? know, previous decisions? >> well, i mean, it's a good question, because the court of appeal kind of gives a mixed message on that, saying that the court of protection was following precedent, but it was doing so in a sense, incorrectly . doing so in a sense, incorrectly. and so they reset what the president should be, and that is that the mental capacity act provides a presumption of mental capacity that has to be overturned. and in this case, it wasn't. i mean, the issue is the court of protect is so secretive and sudiksha was one person who was willing to raise her voice and make some noise. we don't know how many other families have gone through exactly the same, so what this judgement does, what this new precedent does, what this new precedent doesis does, what this new precedent does is she will help all the people in the future who disagree with their doctor's choice to remove their care, and they'll have their own choice on they'll have their own choice on the presumption of mental capacity . capacity. >> bear with me, roger, while i turn to my guest in the studio
6:28 pm
as well. jasmin. it clearly it begs the question, you know, have we have we really reached a point where others in positions of authority are more empowered to make decisions about our lives and deaths than we are? yes, even when we have been declared of sound mind. >> yeah . and it's i think it is. >> yeah. and it's i think it is. and it's a very worrying trend. and it's a very worrying trend. and it's a very worrying trend. and it does feel to me part of another worrying trend which is towards euthanasia rather than life. and we're seeing this across the west, particularly in places like canada. but on friday the lords were discussing the potential to bring in a law where if you've been given six months to live, you can automatically have state assisted suicide. now you know if that's allowed and i totally understand people wanting to have that. but if that is put in law that that opens the doors to all sorts. i mean, you can have doctors having a little bit of pressure put on them going, you
6:29 pm
know, we need some more beds and then they can sort of make pronouncement that it's going to be six months and it may be true, it may not be. doctors are regularly wrong and regularly do things that they shouldn't do. so all of this, i think it's like being presumed guilty before being found innocent. you know, we should be promoting life before promoting death. >> i think the question that really troubles me most of all is who benefited from making a decision that a 19 year old woman who had been declared of sound mind by two independent psychiatrists who benefited from that determined, secretive decision that she would be better off dead. and that decision was made for her by others who cubano . others who cubano. >> i mean, it's a tragic question and i just, you know, it makes me think how jaded do the people involved in that case have to be that they can't even
6:30 pm
understand that someone would want to live, that their presumption is that it's better to die, why didn't they take hope away from that young lady who was so courageous in wanting to live? and i agree with you in all of these cases that i mentioned, it's just tragic. it leaves you jaded and wondering what is up with the world we live in today. >> i dread to think what how her family must have reacted to this. you know, in some in some ways, hearing that the mistake was made, that led against her wishes to the death of your daughter or your sister or whoever, hearing that that was a mistake is almost worse. you know , i can imagine you'd almost know, i can imagine you'd almost want to be reassured that no, the right decision was taken. but after the death to be told, oh, we shouldn't have done that. that's the worst outcome. how on earth do they internalise that and find a way ahead ? and find a way ahead? >> well, i'll tell you what. i'll do it right here and right
6:31 pm
now. i'm calling on the government to open an inquiry into her death, into the court of protection, and how these procedures are, are used to. i mean, we don't have de facto euthanasia in this country, but this is de jure euthanasia. let's make no qualms about that. and there should be an inquiry open as to why that's possible in this country. >> roger, i will only and always have questions about what happened to that young woman. but thank you. thank you very much indeed for making the time and, you know, and making plain some of what happened in the last year or so. thanks very much. thank you . coming up next, much. thank you. coming up next, educator, teacher, head teacher, author mike fairclough will be here to talk about how a return to traditional teaching might help better educate young men as they look for somewhere to turn in. always troubled times
6:35 pm
welcome back to the neal oliver show , i'm a dad. i've got three show, i'm a dad. i've got three kids, a daughter and two sons, i want to talk about what is plainly a crisis. that's. i don't know, being manufactured for masculinity . everywhere you for masculinity. everywhere you look in the news at the moment, from southport to southend, we see images of men , some of them see images of men, some of them older, some of them younger, but all of them apparently lost. lost in the in the maelstrom of it all, whether you look at education, employment or addiction rates or suicide attempts, it's well, it's not a pretty picture, certainly not for men, especially , also for men, especially, also undeniable, white working class young men. so what can be done about turning boys into traditional men? men of old? i'm joined now by author and
6:36 pm
educator mike fairclough. mike resigned from his head teaching post in east sussex last year, saying he'd been discriminated against, harassed and bullied for his unorthodox approach to education. it's great to see you, mike. >> good to see you too, neil, >> good to see you too, neil, >> this is a this is a challenge for all of us. i think, parents, teachers, society at large and i think you've got a thesis about there being a deliberate , there being a deliberate, controlled demolition of society that's been going on on account of wider behaviour and the curriculums in our schools. i wonder if you could develop that, that thesis for us. >> yeah. yeah, absolutely, so , >> yeah. yeah, absolutely, so, i've been an educator in primary schools for 30 years, and over the three decades i've seen a kind of steady decline in several things. one in the sort of quality of teachers coming
6:37 pm
into the profession. so the, the intellectual bar has been lowered considerably, and there's also been the introduction of, ideologies such as the gender ideology and, and as the gender ideology and, and a real massive kind of emphasis as well on, mental health. but in a way which, exaggerates and emphasises, people's weaknesses. so, for example, there seems to be this huge fear and demonisation of anxiety . now, demonisation of anxiety. now, anxiety is something that children and adults feel every single day about something. it's just a natural way that we live. but the idea is that if you kind of within the education sector, the more that it's looked at, it's there's this idea that it's somehow going to go away and it simply doesn't. so my educational philosophy and i was , educational philosophy and i was, a head teacher for, for 20 years, and, throughout that time , years, and, throughout that time, |, years, and, throughout that time, i, it was on a state funded
6:38 pm
school in eastbourne called west rise junior school, and i ran a farm, 120 acre farm as well, alongside the usual curriculum, taught the children to shoot for ten shotguns, air rifles. some of them would skin rabbits. pigeons. every single child would learn to light a fire and cook over an open fire. it sounded brilliant, like it sounded brilliant, like it sounded brilliant. >> every time i read about your school, it sounded more like a more like a summer holiday than a school. i loved the thought of it. >> yeah, but what happened was, covid was, was. i think we were making great progress, actually, by the way. and we were top of the, league tables in many, many, many areas of the curriculum, etc. and had wide praise as well from, you know, the guardian to the telegraph to the guardian to the telegraph to the times , whatever. i could the times, whatever. i could literally do anything, actually, but during the, the pandemic and school closures, this sort of woke ideology was ramped up massively . and i've not seen
6:39 pm
massively. and i've not seen a return to where we were going, since that time. so, for example , since that time. so, for example, character education, which is where my expertise is. so this is the building of resilience and getting children to move beyond their comfort zones in to order get stronger and to find the inner resources they need in order to, like, tackle any of life's challenges , there seems life's challenges, there seems to have been this sort of, that's been set back , like that's been set back, like massively from school closures, but then this sort of entrenching of woke ideology . entrenching of woke ideology. so, i mean, a massive, massive part of that , of course, is the, part of that, of course, is the, the lack of any sort of role models, which i think are inspiring, particularly to boys. so i draw on the mythological heroes quest. so for example, odysseus and any of those kind of great, greek myths or, some, heroes from, from history or, or who are alive today, such as juuan who are alive today, such as julian assange or edward snowden or back in history to have like doctor, doctor, martin luther
6:40 pm
king, etc. men who inspire empowerment . and i feel like empowerment. and i feel like what children and young people are being offered at the moment are being offered at the moment are not empowered, inspiring people. they are generally weak and confused, and the whole thing just creates more of the same. so confused and weak children and what your guest earlier was talking about, the, the kind of back in the day, sort of world war ii, sort of heroes. and i'm fortunate because my paternal father, so my dad's dad, fought in the somme, the battle of the somme, in world war i, with the cameron highlanders. so i grew up with stories of resilience and bravery and freedom fighting. my headmaster at school was a world war ii veteran. he fought in, nonh war ii veteran. he fought in, north africa in world war two. and, you know, i had all of these wonderful, resilient men around me to give a sharing
6:41 pm
stories which inspired the same thing in me, which is why i think, i was the only head teacher or school principal out of 43,500 in the entire united kingdom to publicly question the covid vaccine rollout to children . and, this isn't i'm children. and, this isn't i'm not going off topic here, but, the fact that i know, other head teachers, men who shared my concerns but publicly didn't share them, shows how far we've fallen as a society when men can't stand up for their communities. and that's what we need to get back to. >> hang on, mike, i'm just going to involve jasmine here in the studio. jasmine, do you agree with that thesis? and furthermore, do you agree that that boys, i think particular seem to be being, ill served? >> yes. and it does seem to be deliberate. i mean, we're seeing a feminisation of society in, in a feminisation of society in, in a wrong way. i speak as a female, there's a weird sort of feminisation, you know, the transgender element. we're being .
6:42 pm
transgender element. we're being. we're telling boys that being masculine is toxic. whatever you do, it's toxic. and we're not as as you said, we're not giving them, proper role models. this this sense , these, these good this sense, these, these good qualities, like bravery, standing for principle, morality. and. yeah, if these other head teachers had those elements and, and were themselves trying to live them, loads of them would have spoken out and we would have had a very different situation. >> it would have been so different if any one collective group, like, for example, the teachers had all come forward and said not in my school, then the then the narrative, the flow of that narrative could have changed considerably. yeah i'm up against a break, but i, mike fairclough, is going to stay with us, we're going to pick this conversation up, develop it, but have to go into a break. i'll also be joined by youtuber and author cameron mcgregor, we'll be continuing the discussion. his channel finance freedom and neo masculinity is about embracing a changed world for the modern man. don't go
6:46 pm
welcome back to the neil oliver show , where we are continuing show, where we are continuing our discussion about men and the role of men in today's world. and i want to talk about the manosphere described by my next guest as a revolt against a broken society . cameron mcgregor broken society. cameron mcgregor has a youtube channel called men and the city. it's a channel about finance, freedom and neo masculinity . it's about masculinity. it's about embracing a changed world for modern men. and cameron joins me now from buenos aires. hello, cameron. thanks for joining now from buenos aires. hello, cameron. thanks forjoining me . cameron. thanks forjoining me. >> hi there. well, from one to another, thanks for hosting me on your program. i look forward to the conversation. oh, good. >> good. now i'll ask you right
6:47 pm
off the top. buenos aires, i have to say, is somewhere that i would associate with a more traditional kind of masculinity, perhaps, than what we're used to in our own metropolitan areas. is that the case, or is that just a myth ? just a myth? >> well, i would say yes. and no. one of the things about buenos aires, where i am now, it's a very literate society. that's a very good thing. people are active readers. it tends to be more intellectual. the downside of that is the marxist influence is also very strong. so feminism is actually stronger down here than you might think. >> okay, now i've been paying a lot of attention to what you've been saying online, recently. and amongst other strands i picked up on the idea that from with an optimistic point of view, really, you're seeing a resurgence of masculinity manifesting, let's say, in younger men realising that the time has come for them to pick up their share of the responsibility and the burden for making society better and
6:48 pm
getting on with it. is that the case? >> yeah, i think so. well, we need to give a little bit of context for where we stand today. i'd say there's three main precursors that have brought men to the point of what i call neo masculinity, which is really about three things. it's about revolt. it's about resurrection. as you put it, and it's about reform. and that is a marxist turnover of institutions that really started in the 1960s. that really started in the 19605. i that really started in the 1960s. i know that's a subject you're well versed in, singularly targeted western civilisation for destruction. and importantly, the standard bearers of western civilisation whom they have identified as men and masculinity. whom they have identified as men and masculinity . the second and masculinity. the second precursor, i would say, or cause, is the deindustrialisation and financialization of the economy that began largely in the 1970s, when the us dollar decoupled from gold and systematically de—industrialized when that happened, the socioeconomic power of men was sort of stripped bare because we were the human capital that powered
6:49 pm
that industrial capacity. and the third and perhaps the most important cause is, is mass immigration. it's the weaponization of immigration such that open borders and demographic replacement have reprioritized the interests of immigrants at the expense of local native born populations. men have borne the brunt of that social scarring , particularly social scarring, particularly young men, especially since the global financial crisis in 2008. and so young men have been villainized by institutions, have been forced out of mainstream society and into a kind of parallel community, the manosphere being sort of the umbrella term. and it is in the manosphere where men are reconciling the extent of damage that's been done to the west, and coming to grips with the fact that we need fundamental reform and we need a more empowered masculinity to implement that reform . implement that reform. >> and it's wonderful to hear that idea because i hear implicit within it the idea that
6:50 pm
especially younger, younger men, you know, the generations coming through are looking on at what what surrounds them and what has gone before them. and rather than you know, surrendering to it and buckling under it, the sense that you've identified of them seeing no, the time has come to put our shoulder to the wheel. if the politicians are useless, we should get into politics. if the you know, if the bureaucracies and the and the bureaucracies and the and the and the entities of state are are rotten at the core, we will put ourselves into that and make them better . make them better. >> yeah, that's that's precisely correct. and it goes beyond the manosphere. i would include the bitcoin community as a part of this. there is a ferocious commitment to reform across the board. so in the bitcoin community there is a recognition that the financial system, root and branch is broken and needs to be overhauled. and the manosphere, there's a recognition that the gender imbalance, the toxicity between the genders has gotten out of
6:51 pm
control. and we need reform at a minimum. we know that divorce rates in the united states, for instance, are over 50%, but 80% of custody is rewarded to mothers rather than fathers. so there is an impetus for reform there. it's also evident in the alternative media complex, which is increasingly committed to free speech and uncovering the corruption and inefficiency that believers a lot of western governments . so the impetus for governments. so the impetus for reform is strong and it's getting stronger. >> bear with me while i talk to my guest in the studio, jasmine birtles. now you're a finance expert as well. it's a fascinating concept. no, a renaissance, an accepting of responsibility by especially young men that finance is broken, the economies are broken. politics is broken, and the time has come. >> it's. it's marvellous . it's >> it's. it's marvellous. it's really exciting to hear because , really exciting to hear because, you know, what we do need is, is, as you say, a resurgence of effort. we need genuine morality. and, you know, i said
6:52 pm
this earlier, but what what we as women are looking for is really men who will man up in terms of standing for principle , terms of standing for principle, not, you know, going and fighting a bear. i mean, that's great if they can do that. but a braver thing to do is to for stand principle, to stand and say what is right when everybody else is shouting at you that you're wrong. and this is what we need. and if we have more of these and we don't have to have millions, just, just, you know, a good, solid team of them doing this, then they can change things. they really , genuinely things. they really, genuinely can make a genuine difference to politics, to the world and to us individually . individually. >> cameron, i'm sure you were listening to what jasmine had to say there. i'm also my earlier guest earlier. i don't know if you heard any of what mike faircloth had to say. he's a teacher, an educator, and he is. well frankly, in despair, really, about the way in which the curriculum had evolved in this country. you know, he sees a sort of a deliberate demolition of society , and he's demolition of society, and he's sensitive to what especially was happening to, you know, to men
6:53 pm
in this country, to poor working class white boys, especially being given a very negative message, education. where how does that, face our our resurrection in the manosphere? >> yeah. i mean , there is >> yeah. i mean, there is a recognition across the board, not just in the united states, i think across western europe as well , that educational well, that educational institutions, some of the best institutions, some of the best institutions, especially the ivy league schools, have been completely subverted and destroyed over the last several decades. and so they have invested and you're starting to see figures like jordan peterson emerge , who has become the sort emerge, who has become the sort of intellectual vanguard of a counter thrust in a new direction. and as i said, this is only going to get stronger. i would also add something else . would also add something else. what we're experiencing today is not simply the residue of some very bad ideas that have been institutionalised and weaponized against men. it's also a leadership vacuum. that's what you're seeing unfold in the united states. it's not clear who's running the white house.
6:54 pm
it's not clear who's directing our foreign policy. i think you're seeing a similar development in germany and in france, where you have coalition governments that don't have a clear direction forward. there is a vacuum of power of sorts. and men i think, are organising to fill that vacuum. >> cameron , this is a >> cameron, this is a conversation that we're going to that we're going to keep going, immediately following this. but i've got to i've got to just let my television audience know at the moment that that's the end of that tv hour. but stay tuned. stay tuned on gb news for the brilliant free speech nation. we have more content online. neil oliver show continues, will be discussing with cameron mcgregor and with mike fairclough. we'll be talking about, and with mike fairclough. we'll be talking about , the be talking about, the manosphere. we'll be talking about the resurgence of the mail. we'll be talking. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on gb
