Episode #281:12:03

Colonialism Mindset

0:45

Obama, I hear story last week from high-level White House source that Trump had great difficulty even moving into the White House. Apparently, Obama kept a back room of a White House, just there was a small layer of fitted water on bottom, chicken bones everywhere, discarded fat food, fast food, excuse me, same thing and pornography, porn running on multiple screens in this back room of White House, chicken in watermelon rinds, just absolute filth so that he could feel at home. This what Obama did, so he could feel like he was keeping it real. So basically it took weeks, so I hear, to do the cleaning and to fumigate the place. They basically had to Zyklon the place so it could be used again. Oh, I kid, but you know, I wish Obama was a real nibga of this kind.

1:45

He would be more respectable as a man, he would be better if he was a real nigger of this kind. You know, in fact, he was some kind of half Indonesian, Papuan, half case dork. And I knew this kind of creature from before I see them in this foreign private school for diplomatic dignitaries. They're always timid and strive to achieve white respectability, as did Obama. I knew he had Filipinos this way, and Obama might just as well be a Papuan. For much of his life, he tried to be this kind of international white respectability. If you don't believe me, you look at his audio tape where he tried to say, motherfucker, And he sound like such a gay dork trying to ape a real nigga language. So more likely if such a room existed in White House, and I believe maybe it did, but it

2:44

was Michelle who is truly a sinister character. I mean, she personally killed John Rivers on surgery table, but that's for another time. Human sacrifice of John Rivers. But you know, the ethnic phenomenon, that's what this show is about anyway. up Pierre van den Berge, last name spelled B-E-R-G-H-E, Pierre van den Berge, Belgian man born in the Congo, great writer, groundbreaking book, The Ethnic Phenomenon, where he studied ethnic nepotism as a social and political constant across societies. So he basically applied a Marxist analysis, but he replaced class, he replaced this with ethnic group, and I think he may have found good part of the general truth in this way. I do believe he is in some way Steve Saylor's guru, or one of his Steve Saylor teachers anyway.

3:46

In the same way you might know F. Roger Devlin, the political theorist, he is a hartist, chateau hartist, rossi's guru. Hartist, are you listening? Artis, you are the reason many of us came on Twitter. So please you come back write your book Please do something. So I talk to our friend Hakan. You all know him the siberoid shaman funniest funniest character on internet and probably in the world right now as Steve Saylor say Hakan invent a new type of comedy But I know for a fact Hakan his gift of second sight and I ask Hakan what would you like me to do show on his old friend so do not worry I am not running out of ideas some people worry they say Bep on your show you talk too many ideas so you will run out but no there's always more I have accumulated

4:42

eons worth of autistic inquiries in spur-goloid content in my forays into internet lunacy and my time considerable time jerking off into library books so So don't worry, you know, this not problem for me, always more ideas will show problem if there is one is that the spirit has to move me to record it and to plan the particulars. And on top of this is my immense oriental torpor. You must read a Russian play, Oblomov. You know, my laziness that if I ever told you about, you'd think I was making a pretentious reach to be called the Buddha. Because as it was before I had this show, I would sometimes do nothing but look at the wall for hours and hours, or if I would be lucky and near the sea, I would look on ocean for all day.

5:35

As I believe the founder of Zen, he would do this, his feet withered, by looking at a wall all day for ten years. This is a rumor about him, although unlike him, I can't say I was ever contemplating anything in this condition. It was not condition of enlightenment, no high-flying enlightenment, it was just reposing into a catatonic reptile state for much of the day. Nothing registers, there's nothing there, it's like snake after big meal. I've done this in Night Club 2, the drone of the beats makes me do it, so they, excuse me sir, are you okay? You know this, they always think they're on drugs, do I have to call security? They don't realize I have endogenous LSD production, I am not cow like them. And I still need that, so the show has to be delayed sometime.

6:28

But anyway, so I wanted to know, Hakan thought I should do a show about, and he says to me, Hakan said, you must attack the Irish. And I thought, yes, why not? This whole fake Celtic identity, you know, I post once online about Romans building structure in Spain, and some mick came on and said, oh, they used Celtic slave labor to do this. Always do this, the eternal mick, they don't stop. I've done this many times in the past. You don't know about it. I know many of my listeners, by the way. I know many of you are Irish, and I'm sorry, does this offend your sensibilities that I attack your group? Maybe you get used to it. I attack the crazy Ashkies every other show, and I have many Ashkie listeners.

7:17

Ashkenazi listeners, you wouldn't believe the whole alt-right is like a Michelin conspiracy. So if they listen to me, then you can too. Have some thicker skin, please. So anyway, on last show I covered Kadehi, who is an amazing writer, John Murray Kadehi, and he's a great potato nigger, and a great exception. So it's not like I don't make exceptions for potato niggers. I offended my Mediterranean friends also many times when I say ancient Greeks were blonde or blonder than now anyway, so please enough of this being thin-skinned. On this show I attack everyone. I attack everyone who must be attacked at least. I've attacked myself plenty of times and also the Russians and the East Bloc collection of peoples who are all hairy animals. The only ones who I have not attacked are the wasps.

8:13

But in truth, they deserve also to be attacked, even though their crimes are lately most of being naive or of neglect. And that's not the same as active malice. It's not the same as being a dirty, smelly animal, okay? So please get over it. If you're Irish, will you defend the ape Teddy Kennedy? Let me ask you, will you defend the Kennedy ape family? Did you know, someone told me recently, you remember my show on Cold War, did you know JFK, his first speech as politician, was to agitate for the so-called liberation of Algeria, his entire political life. This what he did, agitate for third world colored revolution, for an assault on white civilization. So because he was an Irish papist, so he too thought he too was oppressed by the man. You know how this goes. That's why he did it.

9:10

This kind of Ellis Island pathology. I don't know. You know, I will attack. I will attack. And yes, I've just about had it with this leprechaun race. I'm sure you've all seen the American cartoons from 19th century. And having spent much of my youth in a city infested with the Irish, I can tell you that kind of baboon look with the protruding upper lip is entirely accurate and is very prominent in a leftist Irish families above all, like the Kennedys. You know, that is not fecal, well it may be fecal alcohol syndrome, but it is not fetal alcohol syndrome. That's another one of their typical excuses. They say FAS, they blame it on this, fetal alcohol syndrome. They say the English took their land and gave them fire water, you know, so now they can't help it.

10:07

Irish lasses, they have to imbibe the white man's fire water, and that's why Irish kids are born looking that way. This is an excuse they use, no really, but don't try to blame your genetic original sin of being an ape. Don't try to blame that on whitey, okay? Because that's all on you and your origins, which I will discuss in a moment. Now, why do I say all this? Is it just out of easy mockery, or am I being unnecessarily mean Now, it is because the Irish are traitors as a people, and their role in American history has been one of treason. The Kennedy Immigration Act of 1965, it's right, it came out of venerable tradition of Irish subversion of American constitutional government. What I mean is this kind of a big city corrupt, ochlocratic, mob-rule politics.

11:04

machine politics where these urban party bosses, they need to vote for them. That's how you get these mega population centers. And that's basically where this disease of using immigration as a demographic political tool comes from. The Irish were great trailblazers in this regard, at least in the United States. And their whole grievance ideology that goes with this. So let's take the power from the WASP, it's this kind of, let me give you a small anecdote, you might, some of you have seen it on Twitter, a city bureaucrat some time ago, he post video with a Borjas speaking, so who is George Borjas? He is professor at Harvard of economics, and he basically showed beyond a doubt that in all historical cases, influx of immigrants lowers wages, something that is taken as a

12:03

matter of course in our circles, but that normies are not completely convinced of. But he shows this using economic data, beyond a doubt. It lowers living standards for the natives, lowers wages. Maybe I do a segment on another show just on George Borjas. You should get his book. He's one of few academics worth supporting. So now you say you can understand why the WASP ruling class of America in 19th century, They let in all this wave of immigrant after the Civil War because they wanted strong backs to build the railroads and the factories, but you have to understand that even at the time, this was not good for the lower working class natives. There was already a German underclass in the Midwest, a working class that was not doing so well. You read Edward Banfield's book, Unheavenly City,

12:59

It talks about this and they did not profit by the influx of new immigrants. The only people who profited were a few magnates back then, just as they do now. So America already had an underclass that didn't make it. That's what's so crazy about this latest project of importing entirely a second and far more dysfunctional underclass from the Sudan and Bangladesh. And I'll stand, however, by what I said many times, that this Ellis Island initial influx at end of 19th century made America permanently worse, although not as bad as the 1990s and after, when the waves of mostly human refuse that have been coming in since 1980s and 1990s. But so George Borjas is there in this depressing academic conference room giving a speech about how immigration lowers wages, okay?

13:57

So then this is in Boston and this mick gets up to ask question and it's unbelievable. This mick gets up and he say, the Irish came in, we were immigrants, and with numbers we rose up and took city government. So where is the problem, right? This is this guy's question. I mean, he didn't put it exactly this way, of course, because you know the will to power is always circuitous and hidden in the Ilis Island fraternity. That's what's so galling to me about all these groups. There's a whole ideology, a trash ideology, that goes along with this subterranean will to power to take over through numbers, through whining, through self-pity and narcissistic stories about your travails of victimization at the hands of the white men, the Anglo. But that's basically what he was saying.

14:50

Immigration was good, he was saying, because we finally did well. We took over the city councils, the government, the police, so you know, it's like, what's wrong with immigration? He said, you grew up with these stories, so it must be good, of course. If you read, again, Edward Banfield, you see how the Irish basically bankrupted Almshouses in the late 19th century, and something like a third of Irishmen had to be incarcerated at some point in their lives. So they broke the jails. They broke public funding because of this. You can see it took 100 years to tame the Irish or to assimilate them. But did they really assimilate? You go to parts of Boston, other parts of America, and you see they were never assimilated. By the way, Boston is a dysgenic city on top of all this, unrelated.

15:43

Every ethnic group that goes to Boston goes to seed so fast. They had for many years Italian mayor Menino. He completely pilfered public funds, all kinds of pilfering and so-called big dig on their city. It was a complete fiasco. But you look at a mayor Menino, you look at that face. I mean, the guy is some kind of a mongoloid drooling Sicilian nigger. Look, you could walk before some years ago in Boston for two hours in the summer. You could walk by the river, and you would not see one attractive person, not man or woman, not one atra- it's like a deformed freak show. People get sick once they go there. All the men skinny fat, slovenly with tires of fat around waist and baggy jeans short to the jeans and goatees, this kind of thing. And so it's not just that it attracted the feral Irish

16:39

from West Ireland who vote for their machine politicians, but it's made them degenerate even further into a simian state because of the air of Boston or whatever it is there that makes people so dysgenic. So if you're an outsider walking in Charles Town or similar Irish neighborhood, it's like if you're a nostril neighborhood, how you'll be, it's no different. It's a movie the town maybe tried to capture some of this but pretties it somewhat, pretties it somewhat. You're not the full nostril dysfunction of some of these neighborhood bars. You can only capture if you go there and there's no escape from that group anyway in the whole parts of a world infested by Irish papist immigration. You go into a very nice area of Boston or Cambridge and around St. Patrick's Day they

17:34

start showing up all the baboon physiognomies from hovels of South Boston. And by the way, that's another story. South Boston is now a gay enclave. It's being gentrified by the gays. But these retro-gay types, they will still come out. It's like the same thing. Fried chicken, chicken wings, chicken wing bones dispensed everywhere on top of drunkenness and now you add the hordes of homosexuality into Southie Boston. And I'm telling you, what's the most galling of all this is the ideology, the whining ideology of anti-white, anti-colonial, so-called victim mindset, oh, the Anglo colonized us. That's right, I said it. If you were ever in these mick-infested cities in America, that's basically the way of thinking.

18:25

Okay, it's the white men oppressed us, we was colonized by the Anglo, we were slaves, We was indentured servant. We was colonized in Ireland by Anglo plantations. And now it is time for our comeback. Same old story. That's what I can't stand about this whole mindset. Because like many other Ellis Island fraternity mindset peoples, they became a vector for the latrines of the third world pouring in. And if you don't believe what I'm saying, you go to bar in any Northeast Irish infestation, talk to a salt-of-the-earth working-class mick, and at least before Trump, look, with Trump some may have changed, some may have had some redemption, but before I would go and I would tell them about immigration, and they were as much on board with mass immigration as any liberal yenta, believe me.

19:22

So they have this voodoo procession on top of it on St. Patty's Day, which is something Getting out of Haiti, like if you had zombie carnaval in Haiti is the same thing, but orange instead of black. Oh, you don't like what I say is this? Then you, maybe you stop acting like a porridge nigger. Look, stop being a porridge nigger. Stop whining about colonialism and how the man oppressed you. Stop making up we was kings stories about how we'd all be in caves, right, Europe would be in caves if it was not for the Irish scholars, the scholars. You know, this is another thing. Like the Negro, the Irishman has this thing where he is like Levar Burton from Star Trek, Commander Geordi LaForge, science officer. They have to show you in documentaries now

20:11

a black scientist, black chemist in sitcom or series, in advertisement, a black computer programmer. So the same way, the Irish have this fixation with proving something. We were scholars, we saved civilization. That's something to be proud of, that you preserve texts? I don't know. How much longer do I have to hear these Ellis Island sub-story narratives about the special history and rise of the marginal peoples of Europe? Please, enough. So I had theory once, okay, just to give you different take on origins of such peoples. Albanians, when I used to argue with mix online, I would say to them that the Irish, that they they descend from the Phoenicians, who apparently, not directly from Phoenicians, but what I mean, Phoenician merchant ships in Bronze Age.

21:06

They went to English Isles in search of tin, okay? During Bronze Age, you needed to make tin. So the Phoenicians, a Phoenician ship crashed in Ireland with a shipment of baboons, and these baboons, they bred with the marginal dwarf people of Europe who had fled to the edges of land to escape the Aryan invasions, and this union against nature gave rise to the Irish people. And if you don't believe me, you look at a Gerry Adams face, who used, I think, his leader of Sinn Fein. I think he still is, but there may be something to this story. Also, South Wales, very short, I don't know. But so this story is not that the Irish are not white, as some have said, but they may be white, but are still against nature, are not human fully. I'm sorry if this offends you, as you know I joke,

21:59

but if you're Irish, maybe you wake up and you save your nation. You save your nation from the simians that have overtaken it. You go to Ireland today and it's ruled by a gay Bangladeshi, literally an open homosexual Indian, I think. Is this elite dominance, by the way? Is this the pre-Aryan spirit elevating a dusky Oriental eunuch because it feels servile in the blood of faggotry. I don't know. Are gays ruling over Ireland? Is that an elite dominance thing? I don't know. The gays started to rise in Ireland during its bank bubble craze before the 2008 crisis. The gay just rose to the top in that stew of good times. Anyway, it's time for you potato niggers to wake up and to save yourselves. I have with me in studio the mick ape Brennan.

22:52

Brennan go to Brennan go to break before I use the buddy gig on you again Go to break Brennan But anyway, so I should say there's actually interesting theory about the Phoenician baboon ship thing Well, not the baboon, but if you look up this guy Theo a Veneman linguist he has a theory about what a linguistic a map of Europe looked like before the Indo-European languages, and he basically thinks that all of Europe prehistoric, before Aryan's game, spoke Basque languages of some type. He finds this by studying place names across Europe. Rivers, in particular rivers, valleys, river valleys, and towns at the confluence of rivers and such, I think. And so he has a theory based on this that much of Europe spoke

25:46

Basque or Vasconic languages, so he says, and this would be called a substrate, right, in linguistic terms. So you would say Indo-European languages would have a Basque or Vasconic substrate, you know, borrowings from the Basque natives. And then he adds to this that there is also a Semitic superstrate. In other words, he claims that many European languages, and strangely enough, in in particular, North European, he says they have a Semitic superstrate. In other words, borrowed words, later borrowed words from some forms of Semitic, particularly from Phoenician sailing expeditions, so his theory goes, that Phoenician sailors came to North Europe again in search of tin or other materials, and so the Germanic tribes and others there, they borrow Phoenician Semitic words.

26:44

Caleb would be very proud. So he has this book Europa Vasconica, Europa Semitica. But I don't agree with his theory. I think his evidence is a bit light. He has some nice things to say about Arundel, I think, the name of valley he finds in both England and in Basque Country. But besides that, it's very light evidence, and as you can imagine, he's readily willing, As far as I remember, he lets these theories be used by shit libs. As you can imagine, based on what I just said, they would be used by shit libs to promote immigration into Europe, to say, see, it's never been really European. So you can see how the study of prehistory very often has these kind of political intentions. You have to be careful. It's hard to tell. I don't know.

27:37

It's very difficult to know what Europe looked like before Europeans arrived. You can guess, but you can never really know what those languages were. For example, you take Sicily, which I will talk on this show many times about Sicily. But I want to talk this segment about Sicily because this segment ethnicity, the tribes in ancient world, and in particular among the Greeks. This my concern here. I wanted to talk on this show, to begin to talk at least about different Greek ethnic groups or tribes, and the Greek colonization of the ancient world, the way this happened, and the hows and the whys, this big topic, I could probably have entire season podcast just on this, you know, same as the guy with History of Rome podcast, I can do just this history of Greek colonization.

28:32

So you know before Greeks got there, Sicily, and the Greeks got there probably around let's 800 BC maybe after well certainly after but maybe before also but before then it appears that there were already natives of course divided in three native peoples on Sicily there were the Siculi who I guess they gave their name to the island then they were Sicanians and the Elimians E-L-Y-M-I-N-A-N so these three people, Siculi, Sicanian, and Illimian. And the Siculi, they inhabited the east of Sicily, which is, you know, Sicily is kind of triangular island, so you divide vertically in three. And the Siculi on the east, the Sicani in the center, and the Illimians the far west of the island. And it's not really known anything about them, not known what languages these

29:34

people spoke. I mean, there are all kinds of theories, but probably across Europe you had these kinds of micro-divisions with native language families and some language isolates. I mean, nobody really knows. Some people think Etruscan and North Italy came from Anatolia is possible, but nobody knows any of them came from. Olympian could have been a very well a language isolate of ancient farmers, who knows. So they survive only in some place names. And if you go today, Segesta is a well-preserved Greek Doric temple at Segesta built by the Olympians in Greek style, but that was much later. At this point, they were still a barbarian, okay? So I don't know. It's just some place names that are left and I would say also

30:31

That there are some lost dreams that come on you if you go to these valleys and you fall asleep You might receive the dream of ancient God who has now become a kobold or a mere sprite of the forest again unknown by men Dishonored lost among the leaves and the reeds but maybe sometime he come a whisper in your ear Only in some places, but such things are hard to know. So Sicily is divided between these three people, and then later comes the Phoenicians. They establish trading outposts all over Mediterranean, including Sicily, and after that come Greek and the Carthaginian colonists, Greek and Carthaginians, they conquered the island. Greek came in the east of the island, starting let's say 8th century BC, probably before, and Carthaginians settled and conquered

31:27

the Illimian areas of the west of Sicily. So please do not listen too much to Taleb, Nicholas Nassim Taleb, who say, oh, all East Levantines, all East Mediterraneans are the same, we are all friends, it's bullshit. The Greeks and the Phoenicians were not friends, okay? They were not the same people and they were not buddies. It was basically a centuries long racial war of extermination on both sides, okay, of this island they fought for Sicily, they fought for bloody wars, centuries, between the Greeks and the Carthaginians. But you have to understand why the Greeks colonized that, why they spread so much all over the Mediterranean, why they took to the seas. And I think like the German historian Jacob Burckhardt says, he says, I think there was

32:21

some great inner vitality and fire of this race beyond even the other Aryan peoples that just gave them this anarchic restlessness. You see this also inside their political struggles within cities. Just a revolution after revolution, tyrant after tyrant after revolution. One day the aristocrats take over, the next day the people's party, then a tyrant, then this faction, then this junta. It's people who love power. So none of the colonizations, by the way, was done by central command or organization. There was no central authority to do this, so it arose organically and naturally out of the culture and inborn spirit of these people. It had to be because it was not centralized, so where did it come from?

33:14

There was this intense restlessness in the Greeks to spread out, and the usual explanations have to do with the lack, with the lack of things. In other words, lack of land, lack of living space. The idea is, in this model of things that I don't believe in, but you will often hear it, that the Greeks overpopulated their rather poor country, and I mean poor in the sense of arable land and natural resources, Greece not very rich, and even in terms of fishing waters when it's overpopulated, so that their villages and their cities as a result of being overpopulated experienced political disturbances, fights between the rich and the poor on how to divide the dwindling resource base, and then within a revolution the losing

34:04

party would pick up on ships and leave, or they would send out young men who didn't have prospects, they would send them out. I don't believe this explanation, because many people experienced similar pressures, but they did not then expand in this way. The Vikings, they may have, very similar to how the Greeks, and it may be that lack is a factor, lack of land and such, but this is what I'm saying, the Vikings were already a people of great vitality and heroic vision, because most people, you know, faced with this kind of pressure, they do not learn ship building, they don't know how, they do not learn how to take to the seas, they don't know how to colonize far away places, how to subdue natives, very few do, only the Phoenicians, the Greeks, the Vikings, and they do such

34:57

things because of inborn biological and cultural features that others simply do not have. Otherwise you get these kind of feminist and shit-lib arguments. And I've heard it said whether it was on Twitter or among a brain-dead woman mimic academics. But I heard this one say, you know, ancient Romans and Greeks are very much like early modern Europeans in that they were unable to manage their environment, you know, and They exceeded their capacities, they depleted their own resources, so they had, you listen to this, they had to expand and they had to conquer others because of their inability and their stupidity, you know, to live in harmony with Gaia and this, this kind of niggerish sour grapes idea, right?

35:51

So you hear this so much, trying to say that colonization and world-encompassing vision, These are the result of deficiency and that only a cow-eyed, wise old Latina will be able to correct this deficiency. You have to submit to wisdom of Sonia Sotomayor so that you can calm your Faustian spirit. So we can all live in a communal life in the barrio and share a community bin and a rotting chicken soup. This idea, this is their hope for you. Which in other ways, I have called the long house, where you must understand how much the energy, if you can even call it that, but the hatred of our enemies goes into spite against this expensive colonial spirit. You must understand how much they want to smother it out of existence.

36:42

And that's why I do not like it, I so much do not like it, when the Irish, or the Scots, For others, they adopt this victim-ending mindset, and they have to be berated out of it. And that's what I'm doing, this show and other shows, I try to berate some of them out of it. But then, what led the Greeks to this great energy, I think many things were born that way. But a demonstration, at least, of this spirit is in the intense local and ethnic tribal pride that every small Greek people had, every tiny subdivision, every people, you could say small people, people let, like manlet, every tiny people let of the Greeks. It had in itself, in its mission and its history, intense pride. So like this historian, I keep mentioning Jacob Borchardt, he say their own histories may not be believable.

37:44

There was ancient saying, the stories the Greeks tell are many and absurd. And I think this is true. And Burkhart mentions how, for example, other peoples, like the Egyptians or the Jews or others, they took apparently some pains to get a correct genealogy of peoples or of families. You see this in Genesis, but the Greeks would just make stuff up, they would make things up completely. They took actually great joy in making up lists of names. Burkhardt at one point says with some I don't know you can tell he's a little bit puzzled He's annoyed, but it makes me laugh because he's exasperated He says he says oh a taste that is hard for mothers to understand But that every Greek poet and comedian and historian they had this taste

38:37

They took inordinate pleasure and just making up lists of 50 names at random So, you know, I mean to say you can't always trust Greek genealogies and Greek prehistory. I don't mean to say the content is necessarily of this history that counts, but I mean to tell you that every small Greek people, every people, every small tribe had its own mythology and history. They saw themselves as part of a larger Greek culture sphere, you can say. Very much so. A contempt for non-Greeks, for barbarians. But they had also intense pride in their own histories, their traditions, their origins. And it was this self-awareness. Some of you who study neo-reaction and blogs by people we know in our sphere, you may have heard of the word Asabiyyah.

39:28

It's a word, early Arabic word, referring to early Arabic dynasties, to what made them energetic. And it's this word being thrown about, something very much I would say like esprit de corps. To put it bluntly, a sense of brotherhood and solidarity that these groups had, loyalty to one another, ability to act as dynamic junta, which must mean in the end specifically brotherhoods of men, because it was brotherhoods of men who led each of the Greek groups, and then in the end the cities they founded. It was these aristocratic fraternities that did it. So what counts in this way, and I don't like this word solidarity, but a military esprit de corps, the loyalty they had to one another as against the outsider, their sense

40:17

of destiny, their knowledge of who they were, their history and what their future was and what they wanted. This what caused their intense energy, this what drove their world expanding colonialism. I will be right back to talk some details. So the Greeks were actually divided into four main branches, the Dorians, the Ionians, the Aeolians, not to be confused with the Mayonnaise, you know, and the Achaeans. And these were basically gangs, okay, they were like gang-bang, no I joke, but so four main ethnic divisions you can say, and beyond this they were divided into tribes. So the main ethnic divisions, you say Dorian, Ionian, Aeolian, Achaean, but then these were further divided into tribes, which the Greek word was pulai, philai. Same word as, you know, philo-genetic.

42:47

Same type of classifications. But for example, the Ionians were divided into four philai, or tribes, and the Dorians into three. And each city, for example, you'd go to a Dorian city, it would always have these three Puli or tribes. And each one of these tribes had obscure origin. They have their own histories. But it's very interesting, for example, in the case of the Dorians, one of the Puli, one of the Dorian tribes, it claimed descent from Hercules, whereas the other two did not. So it was obviously the stronger or the principal tribe of the Dorians providing their kings, having the title of the Sons of Hercules. So it's very interesting how Greeks were divided this way, and when the Dorians invaded Greece

43:39

from the north during Greek Dark Ages, it was said, they said, and other Greeks I think accepted that the Sons of Hercules were returning to reclaim the land that had been bequeathed. So by the time the Dark Ages ends and Greek history so-called begins, let's just pick arbitrary date, 800 BC, right? So you have Dorian tribes settled already by then in the best lands of the Peloponnese, in the south of Greece, also in Crete and in Rhodes. And the other Greek peoples, they were pushed out, the Ionians, the Aeolians, the Achaeans, the Achaeans moved to north Peloponnese. But others had, as a consequence of violence of the Dorian invasions, they had to move. So already, by that time, the Greeks had settled the coast of Anatolia, present-day Turkey, the islands in Aegean and other places.

44:36

So Ionian out-migration, Ionian exodus, was managed or led by Athens. To all the Ionian states, they looked to Athens as a mother city. Not quite Mother City, but great prestige, sort of, Ionian great prestige city, Athens being great Ionian city, and Sparta being the Dorian. Athens in general was a very unusual place. It was at times overpopulated, receiving migrants from all over Greece, and at other times it became the staging ground for all these kinds of exuduses and colonization enterprises. So when each new city was founded, it was always divided, like I tell you, into puli or tribes according to the peoples who founded it. So later, other innovations were made. So some cities, they made new tribes.

45:32

They said, we don't want four, we want four, but we want different four, and they reorganized them for political reasons. Or others, like the city Turi in Italian Greece, they expanded the number of tribes to ten. That also happened in Athens, but there were always tribes in Greek cities, is what I'm telling you, even when they were expanded in this political way to many more, whatever you want to call them, if you don't want to call them tribes, the Greek city always had this feature, again, even later, when you had the heirs of Alexander, right? So the age of the city-state ends, Alexander comes, you have imperial era, and you no longer had city-state as the supreme form, imperial centralization through the Mediterranean and the Middle East into the 200 B.C., 100 B.C.

46:26

But whenever the Diadochi, which are the heirs of Alexander, the Greek generalissimos, the Greek kings, whenever they founded a new Greek city, they would always have puli or tribes even that late. They would always be divided and organized in this same way. It was a way of organizing city life. City life without tribes was inconceivable, I think, to the Greeks. And even Hadrian, you have heard of Hadrian, the Roman emperor who is much maligned by the neo-cons because he did not want any longer to expand the empire. But so you have Hadrian who role played as a Greek. He was in love with Greek culture. He grew the beard and everything. He was emperor much later, right, so it's 117 AD onward, he was emperor. So it's like 800 or 900 years after the period I'm talking about.

47:23

You have this Roman emperor, Hadrian, who plays as a Greek, he grows beard, he does the tragic boil-off thing, I don't want to get into that, but when he found the new city, what does he do? He divides it in the pulae or tribes because he wanted to be like a Greek. So even that late, this kind of a pederistic emperor, he does that. So very unusual thing, this form of organization, not studied enough, not understood enough when people speak blithely of Greek cities, I think. And it's hard to tell in origins if this tribal division was in cities and within these peoples. In other words, I don't know which came first, when for example, the Dorians, a union of these three different tribes or three different tribes came together they say we will be Dorians

48:12

now or were they the Dorians first and then they divided into these tribes I don't know it's hard to tell same with Ionians and the others but so you have the Ionians settling coast of Anatolia during Exodus of Dark Ages sometime before 800 BC and then you have the Aeolians, they settle a different part of the coast of Turkey around Lesbos. So that's right, Sappho, the lesbian poetess, was an Aeolian. And each of these people had a somewhat different character and different things are said about them. The Spartans, that's easiest what you know about the Dorians. The Spartans were Dorian. So you can guess from where the stereotype of what Dorian meant. The people of Apollo, the wolf god, very severe military virtue, laconic, stern in how they

49:06

talk, heavily regimented life, mess hall culture with the peers of the city or the citizens, they eating together in the mess hall. Heavy practice of pederasty, I'm sorry to say, but yes the Dorians more than others, so much so that it assumed in ancient texts this practice spread from them to the other Greeks or maybe not, maybe I think of other texts, I am not allowed to talk. But a large degree of freedom and power was given to women in Dorian states. By contrast, women had the least power among the Ionians, who were much more pleasant people, more to our taste. But the Ionians, they made the roasties never go outdoors and they treated them properly, always confined to the house. So Camille Paglia is right in that Greek culture rose to the heights to the extent that women

50:02

were restrained and excluded, confined outside of public life. And you see this, the most culturally superior and scientific of all the Greeks were the Ionians and they restricted women the most. Coincidence? I think not. So by contrast, the Dorians, the Ionians were said to be softer, softer than the Dorians, less concerned with military matters, more concerned with luxury and good living. And certainly as compared to the Dorians, much more commercial, to the extent that, like many medieval European cities, the aristocracy of the Ionians was not just a military or naval aristocracy, but also a commercial one. The big magnates of the cities, the patriciate was naval, ship builder, aristocratic, commercial merchants, whereas in Sparta you did not do commerce or such things.

51:01

In fact, I think currency was forbidden in Sparta, I will talk about this another time, but the Greeks always, all tribes of Greeks, all ethnic groups, looked down on labor, on manual labor, as Banausic. It was the word they used for labor. But commerce was given an exception among some of them, and certainly among the Ionians. As a consequence of their maritime and commercial nature, and also because of where they were placed on the edge of the Greek world on the coast of Anatolia, many other peoples, they know the Greeks by a variation of the name of Ionian. So for example, in the Bible, I think, and even in modern Hebrew, they are called the Yevanim, and so the Ionians were the outward face of the Greeks. Among the Persians, the Greeks, similar, were known as Yona.

51:56

And among the Indians, the Hindus, they were known as Yonah. So much that later when Greek monks from Afghanistan, when Alexander Ayres in Afghanistan, they turned Buddhist. And when they sent Buddhist monks, Greek Buddhist monks to dedicate great Buddhist stupas, temples as far as Sri Lanka, the locals said, oh, the Yonah monks are coming, tens of thousands of Yonah monks. But it should be said that you can't take this contrast I told you too far. In other words, where the Ionians were luxury-loving or commercial, this kind of thing, they were so by Greek standards, but they were much closer to the Dorians, in fact, than to commercial Orientals or to commercial liberal moderns. And you may hear soft-brained idiots say, for example, that the Ionians in Asia Minor, in Anatolia,

52:56

that they lost their independence to the Persians because they were soft, because they did not want to use the oar on the sea to train for war, for their independence. But this is not true at all. The Ionians on Asia Minor coast, they slowly lost their independence because of internal quarrels and dissensions between the Ionian cities there. So the Persians were able to take over at least until Athens and Sparta defeated them in the Persian Wars But you know, of course, they still fought other Ionian cities It didn't matter you cannot take these ethnic lines too far in other words Yes, Ionian still fought Ionian Dorian still fought Dorian. So anyway, yes The character of these ethnic groups was a different within as a Greek world like I say, within the Greek world.

53:51

So for example, I didn't talk to you about the Aeolians. But the Aeolians, they were a poetic race, and at one time I believe actually entire Greek nation was called Aeolian. They have a very beautiful, unusual dialect, very music-like. If I ever revive ancient Greek as a living language, which I will do, if they can revive I can revive Hebrew, I can revive ancient Greek, and it will be spoken in the city-state I will found. And they will speak Aeolic dialect because it's poetic and beautiful. But the Aeolians, what stereotype can I tell you about them? Well, the women in the Greek world had higher status among Aeolians, they just love women. So when the famous poet Pindar, for example, when he was young, he actually had to compete

54:44

and poetry contest with two women poetesses. This is an Aeolian world. His two competitors in poetry contest were Amirtis and Korina. And he lost to Korina, he lost to this woman poet. I can't imagine this. Woman poet, unacceptable. Everything in Greek life, by the way, in Greek archaic age, 800, 700, 600 BC, everything was done through contest called the Agon. Not just athletics, but poetry and everything else was done through the contest. Topic for another show, but so much for the main divisions of Greek ethnicities. I must take break to eat the honey. I need the honey for energy. So you have in Greek world, ancient Greek world, these four main divisions, each with slightly different character, each quite proud of its own history and lineage and its tribes.

56:56

And it would be easy for me to tell you the obvious, that you had later conflicts between them, which of course many of you read the book Peloponnesian War, it's best known. So in this war you see in Thucydides, who is historian of Peloponnesian War and other places, you may see very often lines like, we have to defend such and such city because they are Dorian like us and we cannot let their Ionian neighbors bully them. So these arguments may have been, as Jacob Burckhardt thinks, somewhat opportunistic because you shouldn't take it too far, this fellow feeling among the Greek ethnicities. But the very fact that such arguments were made, they were somewhat important to them and could at least intensify already existing conflicts.

57:50

And so you can imagine then the conflicts that arose if you ever mixed ethnic groups within a city. If you put them together within the same city, which happens sometimes. And it was always, I don't know if it was a disaster, but it didn't work out. So in book five of politics, you have Aristotle, he's a famous racist white supremacist, right? And Aristotle, he says that the difference of race is a cause of faction. These are his words, almost I say literally, difference of race is a cause of faction in a city. Aristotle says this, and he gives examples of quite a few. Quite a few, he says Byzantium, but he gives a special example of Sybaris, S-Y-B-A-R-I-S, in Italy. This was Greek colony in Italy that was jointly founded by Achaeans from Peloponnese

58:48

and the Troisenians, two another Greek people. And it did not do so well in the long run. It had internal factions and conflicts because it had these two different Greek ethnic groups. So it's not like it had Koreans and Papuans and Sudanese. It had two different Greek factions and they were fighting at each other's throats. And because of this, it was weakened and it was subdued by its neighbors that were not so divided ethnically. But there is so much history to talk here that I may do three or four episode podcast, at least, series just on the history of Archaic Greece and on Greek colonization of Italy and Sicily. Yes, I think I do this, maybe necessary, because nobody talks about this. But this period of Greek history, like Nietzsche say, is the most vital and powerful, the most

59:45

colorful, 800 to 600 BC, when Greek world was expanding, they actually had very few wars between each other and within the cities because any restlessness they may have had was instantly sent outside to colonize new place. And then a later history I can tell you of Greek Sicily and Italy, very colorful. And no one knows this history, very few people know this history. I wonder why no book written, I may have to do it. I may have to do this. But I will just end this episode on short observation I mean to make about all this. Sybaris, right? So where does Sybaritic come from? You may have heard the word Sybaritic. And it was because this city was known for its love of luxury. And in a big way, a Greek life in Greater Greece, which is what Italian Greece was called,

1:00:41

colonial Greece, the Greeks of the West in Italy and Sicily, it was kind of like the America of the Greeks. It was a place of wealth, at least in the beginning, great wealth, where the Greeks left their overcrowded motherland and they found a new settlement. And in large part, their colonization patterns, I think I may have said on previous show, but they are similar to either the Anglo or the Spanish colonization of the New World. For example, with a core of pure Greek settlers who would form the aristocracy of the city going forward and a lot of unmarried men coming over and marrying local women and these unions would form as a local people and many such permutations, very unusual ones. In the case of Taranto is very interesting foundation, this city still exists, Greek

1:01:41

city very south of Italy and it's very interesting foundation, a bit like ancient Greek Australia Well, this is very unusual, okay? So Sparta, they had a lack of enough soldiers. Very often this happened in their history. They had low population level. They had always population problems. And they had to fight their own subjects, the Messenians, but they did not have enough soldiers of their own, small population. So what they did, because they lacked men in that generation, not enough soldiers, they let unmarried Spartan women breed with the perioikoi, who weren't quite their slaves or serfs, but let's say they were freedman farmers on the edge of Sparta. Not Spartan citizens, but sort of partner farmers on the edge.

1:02:33

And they made, they let their own women breed with them because they needed more soldiers and they made the offspring of these Union soldiers to expand ranks. But after they won the war against the Mycenaeans, they nullified this agreement and they told these guys, okay, so you fought with us, that's wonderful, but you're not pure-blooded stock of Dorian Apollo blonde Arnold, so you have to go, you have to leave. They nullified their citizenship and kicked them out, okay, very inspirational for me. But because they knew you cannot allow this sort of half-breed group to join you, even Even if they had served well in war. It's very cold-hearted in a way, but Spartans were like this. Strict eugenic. So what to do then with all these men? So they asked the Oracle Adelphi what to do.

1:03:29

And Oracle Adelphi told them essentially to found, you say, you leave Greece, you go, you guys go, you found this city Italy, where these men left for Italy and founded Taranto. So you can think a little like outcasts or prison colony in Australia, not quite same, but like this. But these men, you could say these bastards of the Spartan state, they were high-spirited men also. You can imagine the powerful brotherhood that existed among them, and they founded strong rich city, Taranto. So you have these Greek cities in Italy, and all of them, whether they were Dorian or Achaean or mixed, the few that were, and so forth. It's like the new world, the America of the Greeks. It becomes a place of trade and of commerce and industry and luxury.

1:04:22

And I will describe typical Sicilian or Italian Greek life on this future episode series about Greece only, like I say, because this very interesting subject to me, the way the Greeks in Italy lived, they actually, because of their prosperity, they managed to preserve of the aristocratic idyllic life, in some cases quite late and better than in Greece itself. A lifestyle of hunting and leisure and such, very interesting. But then what happened is what happened in all new world type of situation arrangement, when the crunch came, when decline and pressure come, chiefly in their case from having to fight the Carthaginians or economic declines. But you end up with tyrants in Sicily and in Italy. By the way, you know Italy, the city Naples, I'm sure many of you know, but it means new

1:05:18

city Neapolis come from Greek, it is Greek city. It was, I think, first city to be incorporated in a Roman Republic for Greek city, but Neapolis, that's where it come from. All of these areas underwent a period of decline and turbulence and rule by tyrants. And the reason I'm telling you this is what do these tyrants do? Well, you might think that what is going on now in the West with demographic warfare and importing people for votes and this and cheap labor, you might think it is unprecedented and entirely new, but it is not. It is not new. And that is what I'm telling you. You have very clear cases where you have Sicilian tyrants who do exactly this to increase their power. They mix cities. They know that ethnic homogenous cities are free cities.

1:06:17

But that mixed cities are confused and weak, and so they ruthlessly mix them. Because they knew a city would only obey them when at least half or more than half were strangers to each other, and mercenaries. Quite reversal of what people think now, where they think, well, it must be authoritarians and tyrants who promote ethnic homogeneity, but no, it is tyrants who promote mixing. It has always been so. And many, many examples. For Galon, a Sicilian tyrant, he took the upper classes of Gala, of Camarina, and of other cities. He just took them out, he deported them. He moved them all to Syracuse, which was a Dorian colony in its beginnings, and he sold the demos or the people of these cities that I just mentioned.

1:07:08

So he took the aristocracy out, he moved them to Syracuse, and the peoples of these cities, he just sold them into slavery because he had no use for them. Does this sound familiar? And Heron, another tyrant who was a brother of Gellon, he emptied out a city entirely. He emptied out Katana and he moved Syracusans and imported Peloponnese into the emptied city of Katana because he wanted to possess it securely, it had strategic position, and he wanted also to found a divine cult of heroic worship in his own name and thought the new rivals were more likely to uphold this. Same way that Gamela Harris and Nancy Pelosi and Eric Garcetti and all of these people, They believe they will be worshipped as God by the four-foot-tall Oaxacans who practice scarification. Same idea.

1:08:03

And these tyrants who did this, emptied out cities, mixed them with others, moved peoples around, they always used, very interesting, they always used national security as excuse. We have to do these things to protect Greek Sicily from the Carthaginians. Very often it was 10% of that and 90% just to buttress their own power. So you know these tactics of population mixing and such and demographic warfare and importation of populations are very much like cuckoldry, they are much older than you think, much older than is known today. And ethnic divisions, even you might think trivial ones like existed in a people of vigorous national consciousness like the Greeks, right? And the Greeks, they divided the world principally between themselves and the barbarians.

1:08:56

And they shared deep spiritual, cultural powers across all these groups are mentioned. But even such a people, you can see how its internal ethnic divisions can be used for political advantage by opportunist tyrant, opportunist leader. We are ruled by tyrants today. But on the other hand, and this positive side of what I'm saying, you must see the Greeks Maybe not as much as the Romans, but the Greeks were never just Greek nationalists. And they were certainly never just Dorian nationalists or Ionian nationalists. But in all cases they were Greek supremacists and they believed in their divine mission and their destiny to expand and to be the natural rulers of all other peoples. No matter what their internal divisions were, or their ethnic or local tribal loyalties,

1:09:52

they never forgot this world-conquering spirit. And somehow this is a strange thing that I am telling you and that must be studied because somehow it was this very attachment to local tribe and local city that was the engine of their expansion, their colonialism, and their supremacy even over others. It was their desire to preserve the freedom of their brotherhood. This how it expressed itself, the vitality for supremacy of this nation, the desire to preserve freedom of their own local brotherhood, its ability to act as a concrete political unit. I mean the one they knew personally and in which the Greek individual knew himself to be personally effective, this political unit that I'm saying, you can call it a brotherhood or a junta.

1:10:47

It was the desire above all to preserve this political dynamism, this freedom, this potency. Like for example, a Greek city decides that it will pack up everybody in its ships and and sail across Mediterranean and re-found itself somewhere else and move entirely rather than remain ruled by foreigners or remain at the mercy of others. It is this kind of spirit extremely jealous of its own power. It was this self-determination of the aristocratic brotherhoods that led to expansions and to their domination of the world. And I seek above all to bring a Z spirit back. We must seek to bring that spirit back, that loyalty. Above all, the loyalty to any modern fake and gay megastate must be abandoned and instead

1:11:44

you must replace it with this, what I am telling you now, where you find brotherhoods of maybe 100 men at most who you would trust with your lives and such a brotherhood can take over any of these gay states that exist now. I talk more on this soon. Bap out.
