@O R Y X Welcome back. Yes, that's exactly what happened.
Just found and subscribed, thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and how you allowed the brilliant Starkey to talk rather than interrupt continuously like some hosts feel the need to do. Great work 👍
Great job guys! This was awesome.
@@baslongstaff1819 Welcome home!
Triggernometry thanks guys I’ll be back for sure !
What I like about the trigonometry guys is that they let their guests speak without constantly interrupting them.
Plus they have a wide variety of guest. They ask proper questions. They do a excellent job off allowing a free flow conversation.
Dr David Starkey has been cancelled by the BBC, but Jimmy Savile never was. Just let that sink in
"Brussels Broadcasting Communism"...... a Jesuit agency
@Annabel Lee Yes, Dr David Starkey has been cancelled by the BBC because he has his own views and he refuses to parrot Marxist dogma.
He shouldn't be given any platform to spew his racism! BBC made the right decision.
@@bikazful But you have got to hear all sides: if you do not, then how do you know that what you oppose is wrong and what you support is right?
How is he racist?
I cut Dr Starkey's hair and it is the highlight of my week when he comes-I get to have conversations with him like this regularly and he truly is the most fascinatingly intelligent person I have met and everything has a historical context!
You lucky man.
@@richardhall4830 I'll ask!!
Richard Hall me too! Can I come and listen? 🤩
You do a good job! I've sometimes looked at Dr Starkey's hair and thought how well cut it was - you've managed to make it look like quite a full head of hair. All I talk with my hairdresser about is holidays, and local village gossip!
That is really neat. I would love to be there listening to him. But alas I live way to far away.
I'm Irish and I am becoming a big fan of Dr. Starkey, well done on bringing on this thinking and articulate man. I may not agree with everything he says but I love to hear what he says. Bless him, and thank you for giving us this interview.
Same here.
Noreen Ryan What has you being Irish got to do with anything?

@@Antipodean33 Probably a reference to this quote from Question Time: "If we decide to go down this route of an English national day, it will mean we'll become a feeble little country, just like the Scots, the Welsh, and the Irish." -- David Starkey. The man considers Celts untermenschen.
Dr Starkey is the epitome of what a public intellectual should be: erudite, informed, courageous, patriotic, and respectful of the past.
@Max Raider I would classify Starkey as a member of the intellectual class, but I consider the Blue Checkmarks on Twitter to merely be the chattering class/the Twatterati.
@Max Raider I fully concur.
Absolutely. The past seems to be in danger of being eradicated in the name of political correctness and diversity. Dictators rewrite history. I saw David Lammy refer to the last war as the European Project. I doubt that the millions who died around the world saw it that way. He is the sort of idiot we don't need. My solicitor puts it well. To know where we are going we have to know where we have been. We are supposed to learn from the past, to respect it but not be bound by it.
100%
@@censorshipbites7545 Superb! :D
Why would anyone be afraid of growing old when you can be a grand old geezer like this?
"Grand old geezer" lolol
well, you have to be fairly brilliant and vital BEFORE you get old, plus you have not get bitter after nearly a century of problems
@Delta Fox I, for one, would not care to marry someone who is " prefect ".
I’m old and I’m loving it. Best time of my life!
Is anyone afraid of growing old? That's the first I have heard about it. Im afraid of the consequences of ageing, but not of being old per se.
I’m a midwestern American and Ive never heard, seen or thought of this man. Love it! I’m gonna go buy his books now! Loved this conversation and what David has to say.
I highly recommend his documentaries on the old British royal families. You'll never want another voice handling these topics again. Pure delight!
A Tudor Expert..PROFESSOR Starkey now resigned!
Hes on youtube, series called Monarchy. Look it up. He knows his stuff.
@chris andrewes true, but if you could really grasp the gargantuan size of the nation and how expensive it is to travel then youd understand it.
Education in usa is propagandised due to usa origins and the desire to disassociate with Europe for obvious and good reason. My husband is American, I live here. I've dispelled a lot of myths for him about Europe and England and he's seen it for himself since he's traveled to Europe since meeting me. I traveled to usa since meeting him.
We are lucky to have so many cultures on the doorstep of uk.
Usa isn't. They are 4000 miles away. A trip to Europe costs a bomb. There is an infinite number of places to visit within the usa. You could visit a different state every year and be middle aged before you cross the border.
It took me some time to get my head around the vastness that is usa.
They are also taught that usa is the best and the first for technology, luxury, everything. So many genuinely believe that nowhere else comes close.
I've lost count of the number of people whove asked me if its better here. My response is always the same...
Its as good as ... in different ways.
What you lose in one comfort you gain in another. One saud "it must be a culture shock" i said, not even slightly, ive been to africa and Egypt, THAT is a culture shock, this isnt. He laughed but im not sure he knew what I meant. And why would he? He's never seen anything like that.
Our view is shaped by experience.
My husband has developed a keen interest in the world. I've developed a keen interest and a loyalty to usa. I didnt expect that. But I love it here. I love the wide open space. And people aren't as ignorant as you may think. Some are, but britain has its own share. Nowhere has the monopoly on ignorance.
Australia is nearly as big and a lot further way and we're not ignorant about Europe.
Starkey is one of the most interesting and enjoyable intellectuals to listen to and these two guys put all other talk show hosts to shame. They never interrupt, just gently control the flow and direction of the conversation. Brilliant.
Hello, I just discovered these three men. What you say about interrupting is so true. I am so fed up of the TV talk shows in France, they all talk together, and now, I am obliged to seek english talk shows n youtube and even radios (discovered TIMES radio, which I listen every morning now, since a week. I tried BBC 4, they had a special on the poor black boy killed by whites in Mississippi. And thanks to David Starkey, he said on his interview on Harry and the decline of western civilisation, that BBC had become woke. How sad.
4 mins in and I'm reminded why you respect the wisdom of your elders
Some of your elders.
Unless you're a lefty of course
As an American can I say that Starkey is a national treasure?
You can say what you like.
A national treasure?
Maybe
The leftists don't seem to like him, so it probably isn't the case that he's seen as a national treasure. I think that term is mostly reserved for people like David Attenborough.
@@Martin-88 not to be mindlessly contrary, but confirmed leftist here, and i quite like him. even some of his madder ideas....
He has a house in America.
international treasure then?
The first time I encountered Dr Starkey, I was a young man and found him to be pompous and narrow minded, but that may be because I didn't agree with something he had said, and as the young mind discounts anything it doesn't know as wrong this is relatively normal. I have learnt that he knows loads of things that I don't. It is amazing how much my mind has changed in 38 years. Please live for ever David!
2:04 As a french man I am relieved to mention that Rousseau was actually not french, but swiss citizen !
Who cares about a passport. Culturally he was French. Non?
I need a lecture from Dr. Starkey every week. Great episode, guys!
Can any of you formulate what he was talking about?
What have you learned?!?
You will learn 1000 times more just reading Aristotle on Politics.
Or read the Founding Fathers.
Just Open a book on System Design & Programming. Look at the best Practices of building the stable & flexible systems.
Listening Starkey will make you stupid
Starkey, Peterson, the archive of the late Sir Roger Scruton, Douglas Murray...we're all set.
"...if those people could burn you, they would."
This man sheds diamonds every so often.
Pål Deisz Well put!
@@joedoe783 Well... to be fair, it turned out that McCarthy was 100% right. Commies really did infiltrate Western society. We're living with the results right now. Yuri Bezmenov tried to warn us too, but we didnt listen to either one.

@@ianmedford4855 Commie is a fork of JUDISM and ZIONISM

I cannot listen enough to David Starkey - our distinguished historian with a colossal analytical mind!!!👍👍👍
I am just an old uneducated lorry driver retired and I would like to say I enjoyed the conversation immensely, and the trouble with people today is they are so thin skinned .
I've just started listening to the video, anticipating Dr Starkey will speak almost non-stop and will be furious whenever anyone attempts to interrupt with a comment and he'll say something like 'no, no, let me just finish, because this is very important!' David is a treasure - everything he has to say is important!
That's why I hate LibArts.
LibAtrs should be "utterly" defunded.
We used to cure all mental ilnesses with a hard physical labor.
Now we pay these idiot.
And the pattern is very simple, it's a big government.
It's all about the money, and all the roads lead to Rome.
All revolutions were started by the same rich idiots.
They are all LibArts Burgeoisie from Marx to Hitler.
As Aristotle in 350BC on Politics & Preserving Tyranny basically said:
Women & SoyBoys prefer Tyrants, & Tyrants love Immigrants because they can't Compete with the Tyrants.
As Lenin said (the Big Lebowski reference):
Find out who benifits, and follow the money!!
Outsource their jobs & they will run to build the wall.
Or just send them to work!!!
That would get on my nerves if it were anyone else but Starkey. even though I don't agree with all of his nuances of history I learn so much!
The writing was on the wall when people stopped saying 'I think' and said 'I feel' instead.
Yeah but with the woke idiots, they live in their heads, They dont '' feel'' they think they feel. They are complete and utter ideologues.
And when they do have a feeling second, its the equivelant of a normal person having the squits. Incontinent!!
@Marco Tee Yes, I exactly.
@Mr Lopez Haha. Funny, but so true.
Age of reason ended there. Feminism take over of education in Australia a prime example. Results plummet.
Dr Starkey is such a breath of fresh air. Remember when there was a whole class of intellectuals who made sense like this?
There are two words for Dr Starkey - Absolutely brilliant. I could listen to him all day.
I could listen to David Starkey all day. He is a national treasure.
All brits of every class or gender should admire David.. such a beautiful soul. Insight and intellect. What a treasure.
@Phil Phil No, you display it, you glory in it, you show it off with pride to all your friends.
@karmahascometocall you left out racist
@@kirkuk2076 Evidence?

Brilliant. This is why I don't really bother with the BBC any more for serious thought. You search in vain for intelligent and humane discussion like this.
Cotictimmy Same thing in America. The only intelligent conversations happen on UA-cam now
Absolutely. Healthy debate is a dying art...
Could not agree with you more.....
@historypoliticsbb The irony of your comment is outstanding...
an me . . .
you can tell this man was on the radar of the woko-haram and they were just waiting to pounce on him
Haha I’m stealing that phrase!
woko-haram is brillian. Boko Haram, Woko ( letist idiots) Haram (maslins) I am stealing this!
Such a tremendous amount of knowledge in that head, imparted with deep wisdom. We need more men like him. He gives a remarkable example of one of the reasons why we need to revere and respect our older generations.
David Starkey, one great historian and speaker. A brilliant mind.
Actually at the time of Rousseau there wasn’t as clear a delineation between France and Switzerland as there is now. Also Geneva was very independent at that time.
Again, as for Burke, at that time Ireland wasn’t an autonomous state. It was run from British Parliament so it was, even before the official Union, was very much a part of British society and culture.
Also please understand the contexts when Starkey is talking about what are seemingly contradictory comments. This highlights a limit in your thinking methodology. You’re thinking in too absolutist/black and white terms.
This is what the internet, twitter and so on should be about and for. Not only have I learnt, but it has wet my appetite to go and learn more.
@ Thanks guys.
Anyone else see the common social media misspelling "peak my curiosity"?
When I pointed out to someone that it's actually spelled "pique", they argued "No it's 'peak' because it's like making your curiosity higher like a mountain peak." 😂
“Every bad idea is French.” Oh Dr Starkey, I just love you! It’s great to see you broadcasting once more….
As a French... I would tend to agree. English-speaking peoples are more grounded and pragmatic. It made me laugh when he said it.
“When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything” - G.K. Chesterton.
Starkey is always a tremendous listen, thanks for having him on.
I'd never considered the fact that left wing politics had just fallen into the trap of becoming a blind religion, where accusation has usurped political debate. A very interesting insight and one I will use when challenged over why I find the state of the left so utterly objectionable.
Every BBC and ITV news bulletin will find someone and ask "How did this make you feel...."
As if it is news that someone felt threatened, bullied, discriminated against etc.
Its wonderful that with David you not only get a great answer to your question you also get a history lesson and a wonderful anecdote. He truly seems to know a staggering amount of knowledge
"Every bad idea is french" LOL.
2nd or 3rd interview I've seen with him and that line kills my sides every time. =D
As born in Germany i can relate to that
@@Niklas.K95 I think we can say that a few bad ideas have been born in Germany, too. Although the Anglo world has also been guilty of a fair bit of stupidity.
@@Niklas.K95 Really, no bad ideas from gremany? That's funny
Pepi sasa I don’t know about “gremany”. Definitely Germany though
Best episode yet guys. I don't agree with a lot of Starkey's politics but I'm fully onboard with his views on culture and that was a fascinating and very funny interview.
I think from seeing his many interviews he would welcome someone not agreeing with his politics as long as some form of respect towards eachother is shown . That arguments are made on the subject and not the person .
I think The Professor fancied Francis. ;-)
@@Cotictimmy He certainly seemed to warm more to Francis than KK, but then I think Francis also contributed a lot more and that was great to see.
What a beautiful interview, and what a brilliant and charming guest. Dr. Starkey is a clear example that with age comes wisdom. Thank you so much.
I love David. The most sensible speaker if the day.
The man's gold.
No, he just gets paid too much.
@@bestdjaf7499 In his own words, not enough.
@@bestdjaf7499 Not enough.
Given all the Coronavirus hysteria, so good to hear Starkey cheering me up. Absolute legend.
this.
I use to listen to David Starkey when he was a radio presenter on what was Talk Radio. At the time I was young and a socialist. Though the obvious erudition of the man always struck me and would stay with me until a time when I too was a Conservative.
He’s vulgar, he’s politically incorrect (to put it mildly)...but he’s also erudite, knowledgable, communicative and definitely worth listening to.
Martin Van Tol And thank god he is politically incorrect....
About 10 years or so ago he was referred to as the rudest man in Britain in some newspaper articles. It's his way. He can't and won't change. :)
Great interview guys! Dr. Starkey was a terrific guest with incredible knowledge of history and a great sense of humor.
Starkey gets your attention and keeps it, a brilliant man for my money
You are doing such an important job by bringing great thinkers like Dr David Starkey on your channel, thank you so much for an hour of great debate.
Dr. Sharkey is a genuine gentleman. He is the best historian I've seen at this time. Being Irish I don't watch the BBC for anything except things like QI or Mock the week. A world that tries to rewrite history begs to repeat its mistakes over and over again.
Fascinating once again. If I'd had a teacher like David Starkey I may not have dropped history at school despite later realising that I hugely enjoy the subject.
J C good job providing an example that arrogance and ignorance aren’t qualities confined to American culture. You sound like a tool homie.
I always had great history teachers which helped my love of it and is tucked it a uni. Sadly don’t have a job related to history now.
Dead Grubber - Correct! I had a history teacher just like him and it was, and remains, my favourite subject.
Thankfully my Father was my history teacher from a very young age. He's obsessed with the American Civil War, but has always been more than happy to discuss and argue over other points in history with me. Granted it helped that he bought me games like Age of Empires that became a favourite of mine from 4 years old and onwards, all of the Total War series (that has some fascinating descriptions of all the units, and piqued my interest enough as a young teen to read Wikipedia entries on specific battles or regiments, tactics etc.), and he was always buying me age appropriate books on history and the world like the 100 things you should know about castles, 100 things you should know about birds etc. right up to full on biographies of Napoleon or books on ancient Rome, Sparta, Athens etc..
I say this because all my teachers knew absolutely nothing about history or were so unenthusiastic, that I would have loathed it had I not had the best teacher a boy could've had growing up, my Dad!
Excellent discussion; sad state of affairs it's online, you realise how poor the mainstream media services are. Good job all. What a pleasure to listen to Starkey at length.
@Qwfwq66 I AM gay history and I too am appalled.
@Qwfwq66 with apoloies, I don't understand your argument or issue? Please elaborate

Great show chaps. Could listen to Dr Starkey all night, every night!
He makes everyone else look terribly boring.
Not really, he sounds like a plummy old fart
I find him boring.
@Delta Fox I think the critic is an artist because they need enough perspective to comment creatively and knowledgeably on the work of others. Starkey is very imaginative but he did not catch the invalid premise that woke culture arose from the left. It may have been planted and cultivated in the rich soil of leftist diversity but did not arise naturally from grass roots thinking and politics, which arises from common sense, majority rule, and consideration for the unfortunate

You have to go online now to actually watch anything decent, such as David Starkey: I wish he would start a youtube channel and start doing some documentries.

Thank you, gentlemen for hosting Dr Starkey!! As an amateur historian myself, I've read many of his books and watched his documentaries for years. I'm grateful for his wisdom and insight. It's a good thing when someone you appreciate isn't a rabid Leftist underneath.

That was a very, very interesting and uplifting listen. I admire how ballsy Dr. Starkey is.
Canada is Sweden 2.0 in terms of cultural terminal wokeness.
UK is Sweden 2.0 as well in many areas.
Our disaster Trudeau is running once a descent country into the ground
Until roughly the late 2000s, Canada’s identity was rooted largely in the idea that we were a poorer but more conscientious sidekick to America. Our whole multilateral (and occasionally pacifistic) shtick on the world stage, not to mention our system of cultural subsidies, was based on the conceit that our relative smallness and poverty compared to the United States masked some kind of well-hidden reserve of moral superiority. It was an insecure, passive-aggressive posture that often expressed itself as peevish anti-Americanism. But at the very least, it acted as a binding agent for an English-speaking Canadian intellectual establishment whose common culture otherwise was confined to hockey, cold weather and universal health care.
# But during the Obama years, all of this was thrown into confusion, because the housing-loan crisis smashed America without much affecting Canada. Suddenly, we were no longer the poor cousin. At almost exactly the same time, Barack Obama’s election in the United States, coupled with Stephen Harper’s rise in Canada, reversed the left-right political valence that had powered Canadians’ sense of moral superiority since the early years of the Cold War. Suddenly, we were the bad guys, and the whole organizing principle of Canadian intellectual life began to collapse. Into this vacuum came Idle No More, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the MMIWG report, the Indigenous backlash to Canada 150 - and Trudeau, whose political instincts are rooted in the confessional, self-lacerating spirit of political correctness that began to infect campus life at McGill University (and elsewhere) in the late 1980s and early ’90s. Twenty years ago, we bashed America. In 2020, we bash us.
# These things move in cycles, and it is possible that in a few years we may be facing the opposite problem: a populist counter-revolt that leads to a real culture of nativism and xenophobia in Canada. But given the blurring of social justice and environmentalism into a de facto religious movement, it’s also possible to imagine that in my lifetime, B.C. will elect a hyper-progressive provincial government that truly does subordinate itself to some kind of as-yet-undefined overarching system of Indigenous spiritual or moral leadership. Even parts of Ontario and Atlantic Canada could succumb to this sort of phenomenon, with only Quebec, I think, being completely immune.
# Ironically, many Indigenous people would themselves be horrified by such an economically regressive development, as they have just now gotten a seat at the table when it comes to pursing their just share of Canadian economic spoils. But recent developments show clearly that the Canadian left honours Indigenous people more as noble-savage protest mascots than as flesh-and-blood humans with real economic needs.
# If there’s a ray of hope, it lies in the next generation of leaders, who will be today’s immigrants from China, India, Philippines, Syria and a hundred other places. These are people whose families came to Canada for a better life. And that better life did not include marching through the streets, ululating fidelity to Gaia and self-flagellating with barbed-wire dream-catchers. It wasn’t their grandparents who ran the residential schools, after all, and few of them are stained with the Canadian Mark of Cain. These are the people who will finally put a punctuation mark at the end of the mania for weeping contrition that’s taken hold of this country. They are the ones who will stand up and say, “there was a time for apologies, but that time is over.”
# Trudeau and the people around him are clearly not capable of doing this. Nor is the aging crew of guilt-addled old-stock Canadians clinging to leadership in Canadian media and arts. If they’re looking for a way to demonstrate their “allyship” with both Indigenous people and new Canadian immigrants alike, the best option might be to simply pack up shop, let a new generation take over and retire to that great unspoiled Canadian wilderness whose sanctity they have long purported to protect.

Canada's by far the worst within the Commonwealth.
David Starkey is the teacher I never had, the missing link in my education - ...a ferocious intellect
Great show. Civilised insightful and unapologetic discussion.
You go from strength to strength.
This is the best episode you boys have done! I don't know much about Starkey (& I'm not sure I'd agree with most of his politics), but he's very bright & entertaining as a speaker. I've agree about misplaced religiosity - veganism, gender & other activism, etc. - which occurs when people lose spirituality & the community support from traditional religion. Honestly, I encourage everyone to make the CHOICE to believe & act accordingly, bc every study shows that spiritual people are happier, healthier & longer-lived. Faith is a choice & spirituality is a practice, like fitness. It's the best gift you can give yourself & pass on to your family & community. We make CHOICES about what to believe every day, textbook authors, science experts writing online, politicians on Twitter. Might as well choose a set of beliefs that will positively impact you & your society
Agree 100%. I liked Starkey as classical historian , when he presented his history programs, but hated his polemic wrt to Brexit. However, I am so glad I watched this. He clearly was having fun, and his wicked sense of humor came through. He has no respect for sacred cows. I also totally concur with the notion that we have replaced one dogma with another, i.o.w in the absence of one religion, we will find another. Despite being raised in Catholic Irish schools, I have never been blessed with a faith in the hereafter. My legacy will be what I do and who I positively affect in this lifetime. I respect your comments in totality.
A fascinating man, wish he was here longer but thankful all the same.
So good to see Mr Starkey given a chance to spread his wings.
Dr Starkey is very good at seeing parallels in history. I think this is because his study of the Tudors, where the world was in transition out of medievalism, through the Renaissance, towards the Enlightenment gives him a very good perspective, looking backwards and forwards. This enables him to see patterns with later historical revolutions and philosophical developments, as well. They should listen to this in sixth forms and universities.
They love Haïti so much. I guess that the 1rst vikings were from there but when I deeper think, I realized they started from home inventing boats and ways to conquer other territories. They weren't victims of human traffickers.
A real historian. Wonderful.
And the past is where he belongs!

Outstanding...thanks guys, really enjoyed it...I've said it before I'd love to see someone more tech savvy working with Starkey to start his own youtube channel...I'd love to hear more from him
Christopher Hickish I was wondering while im listening if there were some links to him.
I could listen to David talking for hours, he’s a quality bloke
This was really excellent!
The guest’s erudition was palpable and his answers refreshingly frank.
Surprisingly, the interviewers were incisive and refreshingly laconic.A welcome change!
This interview should be part of the school curriculum in every western English speaking country!
Great interview, triggs! I wish I would have discovered Starkey years ago. I had left the right knowing what it was, but I joined the left not really understanding what it is.
In retrospect, this is a brilliant interview. Not just Starkey being the guest... Every question you asked was intelligent and thought provoking. What else could you ask for?
That was fascinating. The interviewers were brilliant at allowing the guest to have his platform. Regardless of their politics, anyone who is knowledgeable about history needs to be listened to. We are in danger of ret-conning and white washing our past in order to square it with modern values, rather than accepting and understanding the journey we are on.
"Starkey's rule of revolutions"! What a legend!

Really loved this interview. David had me in stitches and I love his wit and intelligence and contempt for all things woke. Proper cheered me up this lads..keep up the good work
"A prophet is never heard (appreciated) in their own lifetime" those that are usually false ones! David Starkey mentioned two of the greatest of the 20th century, Enoch Powell on the right and George Orwell on the left.

Watching this a year after it was recorded and Starkey contends that the 'Bubonic Plague was real and this (covid pandemic) isn't ...'. How right he is.
David Starkey, what a clear thinking genial genius! So much to say, the mans a incredible. How he copes with what's going on with the cancel culture business don't know. Love his enthusiasm.
*cough* *cough* "Coronavirus."
What an absolute legend David Starkey is :') fantastic interview too also, made me proud to be British.
Starkey is always great fun to listen to, a truly excellent episode so many thanks.
"We have such short memories now a days". MSM depends on it.
What a typically unique expression from David when he suggest’s that The Guardian “is a Cul de-sac vagina” I think David truly is a national treasure
I haven’t watched every interview you two have done, but of the ones I have watched, this is undoubtedly my favorite. Dr Starkey exemplifies everything we need to understand and return to if we are to recover as a civilization. Also Francis was extremely impressive with the points he raised. I’m glad and honored to be your humble subscriber.
I haven't heard Dr Starkey be quite this funny before. Very entertaining. Thanks.
What a joy to listen to Dr. David. I hope we don't let just one word, perhaps said a little too rashly, 'cancel' 'disappear' or lead to him becoming a 'non-person'.
fascinating interview with this educated and informed man. so pleased that he is now coming back from his "cancellation" and is able to spread his wisdom. And yes, the wokerati would burn you at the stake if they could.
“Cul-de-Sac vagina” - gold.
He certainly does have a way with words lol
spector969 he’s a very cunning linguist.
I'm quite glad someone caught that and managed to squeeze it by the youtube censors.
Brilliant.
Delta Fox I don’t understand your issue. You’re saying her got away with saying it because he’s a ‘homosexual’? So, you are happy with UA-cam censorship? I actually had a friend who was a post-op, REGRETTED it greatly, lamented their folly and lives with such a ‘vagina’. I’m rather more concerned with a comment from someone that can not appreciate humour, tugs on the apron strings on censorship, and implies, rather in a slightly homophobic and anti-intellectual way, that he ‘got away with it’ because he put on his Oscar Wilde hat and wasn’t sat near gotcha Stasi journalists, and that he really ought to be open to being ‘clubbed to death’ for joke. That’s awfully creepy.
@Delta Fox I thought Cul-Du-Sac was a fitting analogy for a non biologically functioning orifice.
David is always so on point, but he's just about the only academic who can explain why, with such lucid credibility.
Brilliant discussion - especially the mention of G. K. Chesterton! He warned of the terrible consequences when common sense becomes no longer common.
When Starkey described Suzanne Moore's hair as "shark's fin soup," I knew I was dealing with an extraordinary mind.
Starkey as usual firing red pills everywhere.
Blue pills wrapped in red pills.
No they were a blue pill .
In other words grow a pair.
Quarantine enabled me to listen to the whole six and a half hours of Stephen Hicks explaining Post-Modernism, and its root in Rousseau in particular which Starkey nails here. If you want your mind expanding and grounding, let alone being able to tear a new arse in any "progressive" you come across, I can highly recommend it
My son and I often discuss 'history' together. He asked me the other day what it is about history that attracts me. I answered him via email as we are both in physical isolation in different parts of the country. Here is the answer I gave: no edits - warts and all.
I think about people and life and though I can never know the point of our existence - because there isn’t one - except for the one we make for ourselves, I can at least understand how our forefathers coped with the ‘point’ and the ‘creation' of one for themselves. I can try to understand what they were trying to do and trying to achieve, given what they knew and believed then.
We today are the outcome, if not the point, of their existence, if you think about it. So, to understand us today implies a need to understand them.
We, and the way we think about the world today and the universe, are the sum total of all their thoughts, their twists and turns and their experiments in life. Everything we are, how we think, speak and conduct ourselves today, comes from things that have happened already. The past. History. For there is yet nothing in front of us but our dreams.
My solicitor puts it beautifully. To get to where we are going we have to know where we have been.
