ABOUT TIK 📝
History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.
The perfect argument for free speech: "we can't learn from them if they are silenced."
*"learn how to beat them" but only because of npc types
Oh my, too bad no one can learn from N@ zis :(
They can easily influence the uninitiated (your boomer dad)
YES, KINDLY INFORM TODAY'S TOP BOOKBURNER #youtube
The perfect argument against it, is someone buying a bill board in front of your child's school and putting up porn for them to see every day..
It really can't be said enough, fascists and communists don't hate each other because they're so different, they hate each other because they're so similar, and both require total dominance of culture and power.
In practice yes. In theory, no. At least if you have read Marx.
@@soulknife20theory is completely meaningless if the practice doesn't reflect it.
@@markzuckergecko621 Fair point.
@@soulknife20socialism is like a pyramid scheme. It's never actually like the people trying to rope you into it tell you it is.
Yeah, no, it's because the commies want to destroy everything that is good, sacred and wholesome. In the words of someone else "they want you broke, dead, your kids raped and brainwashed, and they think it's funny."
Why bother even calling themselves fascism if they are gonna deny being collectivists? Musollini was openly collectivist.
Well, they're technically not denying it. They're just saying "we're something that's collectivist and not collectivist at the same time". It's a typical tactic that all Socialists do to deny what they are - which is the core concept. By denying what they are, it makes us look like we don't understand them. They can just deny whatever it is we say about them or their position, and therefore 'prove' how stupid we supposedly are for not knowing what they 'truly' are, even though we know precisely what they are, and they never give us any definitions or explanations. It's the strategy of an idiot.
It's like how all the covid crazies openly advocated for tyrannical policies, but simultaneously claimed it's actually not tyranny, because it's a good thing, and they like the good things, and you like the bad things.
@@TheImperatorKnight there is this youtuber The Golden one who reviewed Juvola's books since he's on the right or far right. So did Academic Agent and The Lotus Eaters (Sargon's podcast or whatever it is) although I haven't seen it.
Fascist Collectivism is not as extreme as Communism. In Germany National-Socialism was seen as less radical alternative to Communism, the Nazis didn't want the state to take away the "productive"(non-jewish) Capital or traditional family farms (against soviet-style collectivization of agriculture).
Given the IQ of the average neo-nazi it's remarkable they have a grasp on the meaning of collectivism at all because let's be honest for most of them their "right wing politics" boils down to "luv me wife, luv me country, luv beer. Ate gays, ate foreigners, ate fancy words." Telling them Mussolini was a syndicalist who created syndicalism on steroids and called it _Fascism_ blows their mind because they have no idea what syndicalism is, or fascism for that matter or who Mussolini is, or that the man despite his many flaws was probably less racist than Winston Churchill....
"My genocidal collectivist ideology is completely different from your genocidal collectivist ideology."
Fascism isnt genocidal, nazism is.
@@giovincomaz2175It is genocidal. Just not on the basis of race. I would consider Mussolini’s attempt to obliterate local Italian cultures and languages a form of soft genocide. Similar to Hitler’s destruction of local German cultures. If anything is against state unity, the fascist deems it necessary to destroy it.
@@giovincomaz2175 "nothing outside the state"
Think harder.
Nazism & communism are totalitarian & partisan (favoring the ethno-linguistic Germanics or workers)
The promotion of a partisan faction via totalitarian methods results in genocide
Fascism does not shy from violence or murder, but they claim to represent the nation state and through it all citizens, so they do not have a designated enemy group to genocide
@@giovincomaz2175It didn't get a chance to be! The Austrian Painter stole the limelight, *and* ensured the cattle trains ran on time!
Tik you never fail to inform me! This is probably THE most compressive WW2 era UA-cam channel ever! Thank you for the hours of historical documentations!
THIS is why I'm a supporter. You have stumbled into the elephant in the room, and you have the skills to make it visible, both to those who are under its spell, and to others who deny its existence. I've vaguely known about the Gnostic problem for years, but I've not been able to work out how it's been made to work in the modern, largely secular world. This is utter genius, TIK. All power to your mega-zord! Or not.
Please keep digging, but be careful. it's easy to end up seeing a Gnostic under every bush.
I've known about the Gnostic problem and it was driving me crazy all of these historical coincidences (I'm not a historian and was not actively searching for anything) that seemed non-random. I just didn't know anything about gnosticism or even its existence, but yes now I can see it everywhere. "Modernity has become the most successful Gnostic myth in history."
Just yesterday I was looking for videos that looked more in depth into fascist economics, and TIK once again provides what I'm looking for. Cheers mate!
Is strange, after I discovered TIK, his videos help me to understand better my religion, as a Christian I was confront in many cases to negated coletivism and embrace individualism, but only after TIK Public vs Private I understand that, in some weird way, thank you TIK to make me a better christian and individualist person
Same with me. I am glad I gave TIK's videos a try, his POV is both interesting and, as far as I can tell, very accurate.
So you believe in a God? That's so absurd.
@@SchmulKrieger Why? Exist various logical arguments in favor of God
@@fsa7703 why do we need a collective noun called God to say existence when we have the word existence already or other words, like nature, cosmos, universe, World, material word and non material world, soul etc. Those words seem so senseless and unuseful, because we have the collective noun God. 🙄
@@SchmulKrieger Because I am a Christian, and I believe in the personification of God in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
World, universe, cosmos... In my faith are creations of God, not God himself.
Julius Evola wasn't a fascist. While he supported many aspect of it, he criticized it in his book "Fascism Viewed from the Right".
Yes, Evola was a traditionalist arch-conservative rather than a fascist. He was to the right of Mussolini.
It’s very easy to ignore Evolva without confronting evolva in the post war years. Or looking up his French interview which is easily accessible on UA-cam where he says it (fascism) was basically a momentary political fad. His works on spiritual doctrine on Buddhism are interesting as they almost get close what typical adherents of the faith agree on but are confused as Evola unearths the hidden masculine orgins of Buddhism out of the modern trends. They will say though he’s off on how translates terms though, but his analysis is very interesting from an outsider perspective to them.
Evola was nothing but a whackjob with influential friends, pretty much like Dugin today. If you want to understand Mussolini look to Gabriele D’Annunzio instead. Modern "Fascists" don't like to do that because their current ideas have little to do with the ideas of the past if they aren't straight up running contrary to them.
He was madder than a box of frogs.
@@tancreddehauteville764 He said it himself at his show trial. He was "supra-fascisti". A super-fascist. As in "beyond fascist".
Finally, a tuber who got dialectics right in one line: thesis-antithesis-synthesis. It was even said in passing only, incidental. Glad I caught that though.
Would be pretty cool if you went on the lotus eaters, I’ll be interested to see you and Carl have a talk
@sydmccreath4554 True. Maybe even Academic Agent.
Carl talks about Cosmic Order when talking about the neccesity of punishment and the death penalty.
@@Rellikan so?
Humans derive meaning in the conquest of suffering.
It actually makes sense based on how people act when they have all their needs met but no challenge to keep them occupied. They often go out of their way to needlessly create a challenge.
straight out of what jordan peterson said
I very much enjoy your manner of dismissing ridiculous, contradictory ideas with the irreverence and mockery they deserve. 😆
I'm really happy with where you've been going with the channel lately. Thanks for all you do.
I used to call myself a fascist back in high school, not really knowing what it really was. Looking back, I saw it as a phase, but rather than going emo like some kids back then I just jumped on the fascist wagon instead. Then, as the years went on, the media started to make all these claims about how fascism is on the rise and such. Luckily, I was over my fascist phase but was confused as to what the media was claiming. It then led me to some UA-cam commentators claiming that the ideology was never right wing but rather left, which brought me to your channel. All I can say is thank you, Tik, for steering me away from fascism and other "ideologies." You actually show that they're nothing more than cults or religions that want to destroy the very nature of man.
How did you interpret Fascism if you didn’t know what it was? Attracted to power, or sense of identity? Education is very important in schools. Unfortunately, it’s indoctrination rather than information.
"But the devil’s goal is not only to present man with an egalitarian vision of the universe, but also a vision that destroys the very concept of being. He wants to implement a state of nothingness, to reabsorb creation into the primitive nothingness, which is gnosis." Haha... I just read this on another site 30 seconds before I read your comment
If I understood the last sentence correctly, these political ideologies want to subsume the very nature of man into their system of state worship. Everyone becomes a sacrificial lamb on call at the behest of the ruling collective.
@maxhouse2409 Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Sorry for the confusion.
@@ImperialKnight86I was the same as him. The only reason I embraced it was because it was unpopular. As a contrarian, I have to contradict everything popular you see.
You should analyze Theodore Kaczynski’s thoughts on Leftism from a modern perspective.
Kaczynski's manifesto is like the definition of a red pill.
Brilliantly assaults the state(s) and its crimes.
Yes!
It's a bit outside of his normal wheelhouse, but I'd watch the hell outta that.
Me too 👍🏻

"There is a difference between going to church on Sunday and trying form the megazoid" - TIK 2023
This isn't terrible coverage of the issue but I do take umbrage with some of the ideological tone your more recent videos have taken. For instance, you claim that one can only ever be an individual or a member of a group collective, and this is steadfastly false. Even within a group collective there are competitive individuals, individuals which are more or less loyal to the group depending on the circumstances, etc. In the military, there are individuals giving orders and taking orders not necessarily out of faith for the cause but because if that chain of command were to break down, they'd be routed, killed, or imprisoned in POW camps. It's an individual choice to belong to a collective, or to create a collective from whole cloth to achieve goals which cannot be achieved individually. As an individual in a group, depending on your role, you have no choice but to submit yourself to some of the whims of the overall group. This is the case right down to the nuclear family, the former smallest unit of civil society. Additionally, it absolutely is the case that society and biology are rife with contradictions. There is no such thing as any organically existing thing which does not live in a state of balance between competing forces, nor is there any school of thought which is entirely logically consistent AND accurately reflects the state of reality. The world we live in today is so interwoven and the organizations we are subjected to are so massive that it's impossible for there not to be contradictions in its functioning. And yet, despite that tension, and despite the many moments in which certain tensions break, it is still ultimately functional -- more functional than any system which has existed before. This isn't to say that contradiction is or should be the goal, but that managing those contradictions works pretty well for the time being, even if there are innocents caught in the crossfire when certain battles flare up. I'm not saying this out of love for any particular regime or any ideological commitment to or against liberalism, but when you look around, things are far more stable than they used to be. It wasn't so long ago that people in so-called developed countries regularly starved to death; today that's practically unheard of, and it was the combination of statecraft and adherence to objective economic principles that made that possible.
Regarding the nakedly ideological stances you take: I don't care much, I recognize everyone interested in these highly granular discussions is coming at it from their own perspective or through the lens of critics they admire, but the harping on how the state is ultimately the root of all theft and violence and inflation and class warfare is incredibly simplistic. "Taxation is theft" is a moral claim, not an objective one, and it collapses the role of the state throughout all of recorded history (indeed, without the development of the state, there'd be no history to speak of) into a cartoon villain not unlike the caricature of capitalists adopted by Marxists or of Jews adopted by Nazis. Your points would be better supported if you viewed these developments as organic outcomes to human civilizational development based upon the pressures of the time in which they occurred, rather than as a perennial war on all by the only organizations with monopolies on the use of violence. That monopoly is fundamentally necessary in order to secure the markets you speak so fondly of. At the same time, you often argue we've never had capitalism or "true" free markets; what does that tell you about your political orientation? To me it reads as just as utopian as the communism foretold by Marxists, a world that has never existed because it can never exist. Taking for instance natural free-floating prices: the nominal price of goods can never accurately reflect the actual value of those goods because there is always a delay in or absence of information which would affect its price. Price has to be struck somewhere at some point to maximize profits (either from the good itself or from other goods sold by the same firm), but without perfect real-time surveillance of the entire economy at once, prices will always be an imperfect indicator for the state of the economy because they will always be slightly out of step with the real value of goods. This isn't to say it's a worthless metric, obviously not, nor is this to say that price caps and subsidies don't have distortionary effects on the rest of the economy in which they are imposed, but it is to say that pricing itself is merely representational, much like virtually any other economic phenomena we've given a name to. I felt the same way when you mentioned GDP being a worthless fake indicator; it's imperfect and can be gamed, sure, but so can everything else. Markets generally tend towards consolidation anyway, in search of those more perfect price surveillance and profit maximization capabilities, and where they don't, it's the state that breaks them up so as to limit the power that monopolistic firms/cartels have (and to entrench the state's role in managing the economy). GDP is still as much an indicator of economic health as nominal prices are, since all these values constantly change depending on 1. what's actually happening in the economy, 2. who's reporting these figures, and 3. how they're choosing to report them and for what reason. Again, proof of contradiction in large dynamic systems, proof of individual actors coalescing into groups, proof of markets and the state being intimately linked, each requiring the other in order to function at all.
In general I like your videos, I find your willingness to tackle such controversial subjects admirable, and I wish your channel success but I did feel compelled to mention some of my good-faith criticisms.
Additionally: I take great umbrage with the tactic of yourself and other liberals like James Lindsay who claim that all of these ideologies which are opposed to liberalism are merely remnants of a gnostic religious tradition. You can certainly make that argument, but it has flimsy backing. It's obfuscatory at best. The stated goals of these movements often do not match their actions (as is the case with any ideologue) but there is no secret gnosticism behind it all. They may be utopian, they may have ardent faith in principles which do not comport well with reality, but that doesn't mean they're all branches of the same gnostic religious tradition, especially not when they come to such heavy blows with each other on a scale similar to World War II. Liberalism also fought hard during that war and ultimately won.
Many of the neo-fascist or communistic movements popping up today do share a through-line with each other but it's often not in the text they're reading or the solutions they're seeking; it's within the behavioral and social dynamics of the internet, and their adoption of radical utopian positions emerges from the type of discourse they're engaged in. Ordinary liberals do this too, whether they be right- or left-leaning. This phenomenon is not specific to the internet but the internet does exacerbate it.
Rather than trying to lump all of these various radicals under one umbrella of "gnostic" and calling it a day, and doing so almost exclusively by nitpicking their stated arguments solely from that critical lens, it might be best to zoom out of what they say they believe in and analyze how these movements came about. What was the context in which they emerged? What kind of people belong to them? How are they similar? How are they different? What is the basis for their decision to organize? What type of actions are they engaged in (if any)? Is there a specific psychological profile to the leadership vs. the members? What does the structure of their organization look like? These questions are far more revelatory than the manifestos alone, and should only be taken in tandem with their stated ideological convictions, never separately.
I think your older video comparing Mosley, Mussolini, and Hitler did a much better job of this, and was much more careful in highlighting the differences between the three. Now, I think in attempting to foment critique of these movements, you've adopted an ideological lens yourself which limits your capacity to do so. This is similar to myself when I was highly critical of what I saw as fascist influence in my online circles and I came around to left-wing theory. Then in critiquing leftists, I nearly circles back around before I backed out of any ideological commitment completely and just started reading for the sake of understanding the impacts left by all of these towering movements, thinkers, and empires which have risen and fallen. You appear to have done so while adopting libertarianism as your critical method, which has turned into an unspoken positive project of sorts. Again, that's fine, I have no real personal issue with libertarians (or fascists or communists or liberals or whoever else), but I think it would do your channel well to maybe break away from that (and perhaps even begin a robust critique of it?) for the intellectual exercise that it is.
HIs ideological "we are all individuals" and "there's no such thing as race" spiel reminds me a lot of Thatcher with her "there is no such thing as society" line. Yes I am an individual within my family but I still try to further the interests of my family, then my community, kin and so on. That's how we can best pass on our genes and everyone should want there to be more people like them in the future. Yes I am in some competition with other members of my ethnic group but at the end of the day if they win they're still passing on more similar genes to myself than a member of another group.
Very well said,
I do not understand how he gets so much praise, in my opinion this is just one big strawman argument, and he is trying to cram as much things as he doesn't like into the gnostic cultism theory.
I think his biggest mistake is taking what is said by some individuals verbatim, instead of analyzing what they did, Stalin could have a secret diary where he said he loves capitalism and hates marx and whatnot, but it would be stupid to analyze this as his ideology when it clearly is not.
I don't mind him being against any ideology, but he clearly has a huge bias which he never addresses, nor does he ever explain things he claims as facts that are just his opinion. I just wish he analyzed it from a historical perspective, with multiple sources, analyzed what happend, rather than just making hitler is actually the same as stalin and basically communism is evil part 27
@@andrija3000 I agree. I do actually like that he positions Hitler and Stalin as similar based on the actual arguments and actions they took in part because I do believe there is ample evidence to suggest Marxist influence on the development of both Bolshevism and National Socialism (and in all honesty I think Hitler was closer to Marx in spirit than Stalin, despite the disavowals) but he treats them both as boogeymen who were simply ideologically opposed to perfect free markets which by his own admission have never existed. In truth his content did used to be much more historicist in outlook but that time has clearly passed.
As for the praise he gets, I do understand this. Any content taking any sort of position on anything is going to attract people who view the world similarly, especially if as granularly dissected as he does it. I understand exactly where the commenters from Eastern European countries come from given my family are from former Warsaw Pact countries. What he says about those places and times isn't strictly wrong but even true things can validate biases. Something as simple as citing a source can fool a lot of people even if the citation isn't used for much else but rhetorical dunking.
It appears that you are conflating a voluntary co-operative collective of individuals with collectivism (which is imposed, involuntary).
A group of people voluntarily deciding to work together for common cause (like some mates deciding to make a computer game, and sell it for profit), and while it could be called a collective, is most definitely not the same as a demand to place the collective above oneself based on some perceived common innate factor, like nationality, race, sex, class, religion, etc.
The difference is, as always, the element of coercion.
One note on being in the Army. At no point do you cease being an individual. While the training, tactics, and doctrines REQUIRE teamwork, these do not require the destruction of the individual for the sole sake of the whole. While self discipline and "good order and discipline" on the unit level are important to all soldiers, the Army seeks constantly to promote, retrain for new roles, reward service with college benefits, etc. Why? Because every officer and NCO in the Army understands that service in the military is only one part of being a person and being a soldier does not define the PERSON as if every person is a one dimensional being defined only by what they do to get paid. So when they point to the military, they are displaying the same ignorance of that as they do with everything else. These belief systems are nothing but neck beard wet dreams in which their wholly inadequate intellects and capacities are magically in charge.
Really ? Ours is not to reason why; ours is but to do and die 😁
@@aleksazunjic9672 Nice moto movie quote. We were talking about real life, though.
The army is all about self sacrifice for the group though. Dying for your brothers. Dying for your 'country'. Being forced to follow orders or else be reprimanded. The military will be the last vestige of the collectivist state.
I think it depends on army. If you need nothing more than cannon meat (russians), you will not care about what soldier thinks as a person.
Militaries classify some of their members as expendable. One of my duties for 16 hours a week was to stand on the outer perimeter as a soft target to be shot. The sound of gunshots was a signal for the inner perimeters to harden.
My CO also had a loaded pistol in his locker to commit suicide if captured. Mission first.
You, Academy of Ideas and James Lindsay are always on my watch list. I constantly rewatch videos from all three chanels as they seem to compliment eachother.
Keep up the good work TIK. Much love from Brasil. Stay free!
The three channels bring a historic, phillosophical and political view on the current socialism the left is pushing on us.
I like Academy of Ideas - Aristotelian / Niezschean insights
I think the Will to Power is misunderstood - could be called Will to Vitality but could not be called Will to Dominance
You should look into Objectivism too then.
“We can’t learn about someone’s ideas if they’re silenced” may be the most important free speech argument I’ve ever heard!
Yes. Evolution
The fact that you're able to discuss and explain these ideas at all, let alone as objective as you're doing here, is a rare thing indeed and speaks volumes about you as a human being
Описание диалектики на этом канале абсолютно ложно. Никто и никогда с 19 века не понимал диалектику как отрицание истины и совмещение противоречащих тезисов. Диалектика это наука о развитии, а не об истине. Синтез не приносит истины, он просто создает новый тезис. Диалектика описывает реальность, а не идеал.

@@TheImperatorKnight This fascist essay seems coming from a strasserist website. I think there's a difference between regular national socialism and strasserism. Of course it's all garbage, but the latter was more communistic in its economic principles, I think. It's like the difference between the SS and the SA ("that wasn't real national socialism" lol).
@@TheImperatorKnight I'm liking the concept of the book reviews. It's important to show people not only to try and find primary sources, but how to *evaluate* those primary sources.
Not all primary sources are equal. I read few years back of a huge debate about primary sources from a Virgina County. The issue was that, someone discovered the clerk at the time was actually a nephew of George Washington. he was a lazy worthless guy that George's sister begged him to help with, so he got him the clerk's job.
It excelled at being as lazy and useless as possible there as he did in every endeavor and for the years he was in office the records are mess and such, many genealogist and historians are questioning the validity of using those documents as *reliable* primary sources without secondary documentation to back up them up, cause many many errors have been found in his record keeping.
i have several relatives myself that were born in Illinois before the States required counties to keep up civic records. When Social security came along a flood of people were now having to get birth certificates called Delayed certificates of Birth. They required at least one witness to the birth. hence many of those dates are questionable, because they were recorded decades later from people who weren't even sure about dates at the time, much less able to remember in their 70's and 80's.
Just because something's a primary source, or uses primary sources, doeskin mean those sources are reliable in and of themselves. people need to learn to investigate their sources, and to always try to find collaborating secondary sources for your primary source.
@@TheImperatorKnight I'm going to throw a wrinkle in your cats and dogs analogy for collective individualism. It's not that it's a bad analogy, it really isn't, it's just a little too simplistic. Dogs and cats DO compete within similar ecological niches. So to expand it, the dogs and the cats would be different societies in competition for resources and within the societies, individuals would be competing among themselves. This would tie in to the shrinking markets hypothesis as that would be the ecological niche.
step 1: collect underpants
step 2:
step 3: ultimate truth
You said Evola was a nut job but I haven't found any medical evidence supporting this claim. Can you elaborate?
You also said that you can't be an individual and a group at the same time but is this really true? My family is a group. My project at my work is also a group. Why can't I have individualistic strives while being in that group? Why can't I have duties to my family while also having personal dreams?
Individualism doesn't really exist since we live in a society.
Your argument for cats and dogs was also kinda bad, since humans are the same species and different races can interbreed with each other unlike cats and dogs.
You hit a point that everyone else misses: fascists are not materialists. They are spiritualists who desire spiritual strength, moral hierarchy, and a triumph over external threats.
You refer to them as a cult but there are merely the other side of the mind/body dichotemy.
While Nationalsocialists are highly materialists.
More succintly, a "cult of victory" (Augusto del Noce).
It is possible to cooperate and compete with someone at the same time, because there can be varying intensities of conflict. You can compete with other members of the same athletic team to see who can score the most points, while still striving more stringently to defeat the opposing team.
It is possible to survive, even beyond death, without reproducing, by contributing something else to humanity, or whatever subgroup one favors, such as creative productivity, military service, etc.
Dogs and cats may not compete for mates, but they do compete for food very often; arguably an even more important component of survival overall.
I agree with most of what you say, but these flaws are significant and should be addressed.
I'm glad to see this brought up. He seems to have an oversimplified or outdated understanding of the theory of evolution. The Selfish Gene is probably a good start but maybe I'm out of the loop as well.
“Strength in Numbers” refers to the same concept I believe you mentioned in your Hitler’s Socialism video.
The individual sacrificing his or her individuality to be part of the group, the collective, to achieve socialist goals.
I can’t remember if you gave it a name or simply described it.
Book tip: The Occult Roots of Nazism: The Ariosophists of Austria and Germany, 1890-1935

If someone wants to know what modern fascism is nowadays you can look at Argentina. Perón was a fascist argentinian who was in fascist Italy and when he came back to Argentina he implemented the fascist policies that where there (some of them where a copypaste) and he even did things like helping national socialist scape there with "their" gold. What Argentina has right now is a openly modern form of peronism (and therefore fascism) wich is to no surprise very left leaning and still has those bases from fascism such as corporativism, syndicalism etc.... It can also be found in Spain with Sumar (a conglomerate of a few very left leaning parties) wich literaly means "to add" (as joining forces) wich is not only run by a politician who I would call a modern fascist (she is very, very close to it, she was the one who run the ministry of labour and in previous ages she was a key part of syndicalism wich she showed these previous years). This can be seen in that Podemos ("we can") not only is tied to the politics of Argentina and honor them but their economic program and policies are almost the same as the Falange, the clasical fascist party, in fact the lider of said party said that and that they could be able to understand each others because of that and get to an agreement. Even the name of the coalition resembles fascism, the fascio is a fascist symbol because it represents their beliving in collectivism and how if they join politically they can be strongly enough to encounter everything and that can be see in both their coalition and their name wich again can be interpreted as to join, as a sum of it. The same way comunism evolved and left nationalism behind in some of their modern forms and joined few collectivistics ideologuies/sects known for most as "wokeness" (or whatever you wanna call it, femisim, anti racism, pro lgtb etc...) so did fascism in a similar fashion

Love your philosophical economical political vids👍. One detail: marxists defined socialism as 90% of means of production is owned by "people", meaning state. The remaining 10% were the small hill farms impossible to colectivise. And btw, everytime some of these ideologies mention "struggle" it is invariably excuse and justification to terrorise people they don't like
The thing is there is a thing called group selection in natural selection. It is when different organisms compete one a collective. Aka think tribe 1 which are all more closer related to eachother than tribe 2. Hence if you are a member of tribe 1 the victory of tribe 1 over 2 means you win as your genes get spread further through the other in the tribe.
Natural selection operates on the level of the gene, not the individual or the group
So I can "profitably" sacrifice my personal interests for my family much more than for my tribe and still more than I can for my race

"People who believe in free markets do not believe in equality" that's not true at all. A free market is a market where the individuals participating within it are free, in order for them to be free, power most be put on the individuals to maintain their sovereignty. That power comes from natural rights, which are based on the idea that all humans are fundamentally equal in their individuality, that's equality. People aren't equal in their ability or their thought, but they are equal in their rights, the right to do anything that doesn't infringe on another's enjoyment of that same freedom. That's the equality that underpins Liberalism

Has fascism and/or national socialism evolved over time? - It became social justice?
Also, I think the terms liberal and socialists are as misused by people on the right as fascist and conservatives are by people on the extreme left. A liberal is not a socialist and vice versa. That seems to be a pollution of terms brought about from America.
Socialists tend to lie about what they genuinely believe, depending on the audience. They'll often pretend to be liberal when they're in a more moderate setting, to hide how far left they actually are. That's where a lot of the confusion comes from. It's also why they think everyone right of center is a secret fascist, they're projecting. They think because they lie about how extreme their views are, everyone else must be lying too, and they're on the opposite extreme.
It has evolved and is a Cluster fuck like leftism but im not sure if it can be seen as social justice but it became a kind of non racist racism or anti racism racism ( exept the skin Heads , they are insane). I did a few deep dives about that
Socialism is giving up property for the collective.
Fascism is giving up your rights, soul, AND property to the collective.
And the point of forgetting history is to repeat it. The left forgot what communists and fascists belive... so they're free to repeat the mistakes of the past.
Social Justice is that movement.

Tik, as far as I understand Julius Evola was neither a fascist or a national socialist; in fact, he criticized both ideologies fervently. His book, “Fascism Viewed From The Right”, is composed entirely of his problems with Italian Fascism from the point of view of a reactionary traditionalist. I don’t think Evola ever tried to blend Fascism and National Socialism into one as he disliked both of them; National Socialism even more so. I think it would be beneficial to read both “Revolt Against The Modern World” and “Fascism Viewed From The Right” to get a better understanding of Evola’s ideas.
For whatever reason, TIK refuses to read or understand Evola at all. He seems to have just written him off as the Italian Himmler
@@doronaznible7298 He was the Italian Himmler, in terms of finding a way to communicate (or unify as Tik says) the two ideologies for political purposes.
@OP: I also distrust Evola's reflective criticism of his erstwhile ideological bedfellow in Fascism Viewed From The Right. It reads as a covering of ones tracks to compensate from the failure of the ideology (one he actively participated in and I believe, had faith in) for credibility purposes.
In the end it's all academic though. Evola's ideas are just another dead end.
@@ThyCorylusNo he wasn’t. He was never a member of the fascist party, and his works were actively censored by the Italian government. He even had to escape from the SS as they viewed him as dangerous and subversive. And no. He never once tried to combine fascism and Nazism together. If you look at fascism and Evola, you’ll realise the man had very little in common with it. Evola was an aristocrat that despised fascism and Nazism’s insistence on socialist economics, nationalism and obsession with a mono cultural state.

You said it yourself. It was published by Ruzzian. To them everything is Fascism. In Soviet history books Third Reich is called Fascist Germany.
Its not far of. Nazism is seen as fascism in austrian books too so the russians are in the Main stream in this reguard
Many people in the west also conflate fascism and Nazism, so this isn't a Russian thing, it's actually a Communist/Socialist thing. The official Marxist position was that Nazism was a form of Fascism, and that Fascism was the end-stage of capitalism. Therefore, most people are completely clueless about this topic, which explains why even the fascists and National Socialists themselves are getting this wrong.
Giovani Gentile was a Marxist and Hegelian philosopher, so no wonder Fascism is built on dialectics..
"Youre either a collectivist or an individualist"
Have you ever heard of a community? You can be an individual within a community and still work towards common goals as a community.
Communities are made up of individuals, only individuals can determine what a common goal is, and if they work towards them. Thus individualism. There is no collectivism there what so ever.
Collectivism and individualism are a way of analysing politics, not a rule in your behaviour towards others. "Individualist" does not mean "anti-social", it just means that you consider the individual the most important actor in politics and in general.
"Collectivists" see groups as entities in their own right, while individuals are merely cells working in tandem, which individualists do not adhere to.
An individualist would say "A group is a bunch of individuals working for a shared goal" while with collectivists it is more that an individual is someone who is a part of a group working for a certain goal.

I'm not sure if calling Evola a fascist is apropriate. He was a complicated guy with views really alien to our modern sensibilieties. He initially was interested in fascism and national socialism but neither Mussolini nor Hitler live up to his standard. Both NSDAP and italian fascist party were too open to the people for his taste. Instead of purging themselves and forming an intellectual elite they allowed basicaly everyone in. What he envisioned was not a party political party but sort of neo-feudal warrior-priest class ruling over the plebs. Such social order in his view would not require a totalitarian state as it did in both germany and italy because a person cofined to a role of a peasant/craftsman/whatever would enjoy the certainty strict hierarchical order brings.
It's also important to note that Evola was not a Hegelian. Dialectic assumes that there is an end point of history we should struggle (see what i did there lol) towards. Evola viewed history as an infinite series of degenerative cycles. You start at the highest point (spiritually speaking) and slowly go down the ladder until the civilisation collapses and on it's ashes arises new civilisation with its own golden age which will also degenerate collapse and start the cycle again and again and again.
It's a completely different beast than whatever Gentile, Marx or whoever thought up.
Gentile also rejects end of history. He sees it as constantly in flux with no end or cycles.
@@ZoranZoltanous
That's interesting. Someone told me that Gentile was a Hegelian thinker and i just assumed it to be true. Seems that i got to go back to the books. Does "Origins and doctrine of fascism" reveal his views or should I read something else?
@@mk-tu3gv he’s definitely influenced by Hegel but he doesn’t agree with everything from Hegel. Origins and doctrine is more of an outline. If you’re going to understand him, I recommend the book thought, thinking, which basically summarizes his entire philosophy and has a bunch of his obscure essays inside of it.
22:00 In my experience, the lack of empathy that narcissists and psychopaths show, with their lacking, or very artificial crutch attempt at a theory of mind, manifests as an ability to imagine that other people could think differently from yourself, thus could have different personalities. In their limited minds everyone operates the same as them - which also explains and "justifies" why they project so much, why they accuse you of their crimes and their own vices, for those are the ones they can comprehend, and you must be guilty of them too, because they themselves are guilty of them and certainly haven't overcome them, and thus you couldn't either. In short, this is why this guy you cover here believes that individualism is fake, that in an Individualist Society everyone would just be replaceable clones, and only in a collectivist society where the State tells you what to do, you become individualistic through the differences the state decrees/blesses on to you. These people believe differences (individualism) comes from external sources, not from the inside - There's simply not much development on the inside of a narcissistic personality disorder, so I suppose that could thus be a logical conclusion from the point of view of the narcissist. It also explains the obsession with the State looming over you and taking care of you and telling you what exactly to do: It is the replacement for the oedipal parent that never stopped doing exactly that and thereby stunted the emotional/cognitive development of the now narcissist. The prior replacement for that overbearing parent would have been the Church. If we accept Socialism is just a religion, then the latter remains true regardless, as it is merely "some church of some religion" trying to take complete State Power.
Hej TIK
I do understand your arguments about Nazism as socialism. But i wonder if this explanation from AH does make a differens? I mean, he does say that NSDAP stands on the platform of private ownership.
Adolf Hitler proclaimed the following explanation for this program on the 13 April 1928:
Explanation
Regarding the false interpretations of Point 17 of the program of the NSDAP on the part of our opponents, the following definition is necessary:
"Since the NSDAP stands on the platform of private ownership it happens that the passage" gratuitous expropriation concerns only the creation of legal opportunities to expropriate if necessary, land which has been illegally acquired or is not administered from the view-point of the national welfare. This is directed primarily against the Jewish land-speculation companies.

Free market libertarianism doesn’t answer the progressive liberalism question though, what stands in the way of cultural rot that is happening throughout the west?
I disagree on one thing. There can be individualism and collectivism at the same. Its just a matter of priorities and circumstances. if the threat is greater within a group then individualism is more prominent or if the threat is greater outside the group then collectivism is more prominent. but both are still present at the same time just at different levels.
I mean TIK you could make a discord with a room for "Third Positionist et al Anonymous"
That's not an ideal solution but it's a start.
That moment when a Fascist paper outlines its plans and they are the exact same as Klaus Schwab’s. He also wants to run capitalism and socialism through a dialectic but he makes a lot of mistakes.
He is doing it with “state capitalism” and “shareholder capitalism” which he thinks will lead to the world of stakeholder capitalism, as he calls it. The problem is he thinks he’s doing a dialectic either with 2 types of capitalism or capitalism and socialism. In reality he’s doing a dialectic with 2 types of socialism, socialism on the level of nation states and none nation state socialism.
There are definitely a lot of parallels between Third Positionism and what many of the modern Marxists and Socialists are doing. Some have reluctantly realised that their economics is nonsense, so they're now trying to use "capitalism" to get to "socialism", which just results in Fascism. Of course, they don't call it that :)
Except schwab is anti white and pro J.
Here's the glaring flaw in your theory though. You know, finance-capitalists, people with billions of dollars of f*ck-you-money, they don't HAVE to listen to Klaus Schwab. They don't HAVE to do ESG-scores and propagate left-wing social ideology for no other reason than some WEF-clown in a weird suit tells them. They do it, because it's profitable to them and demoralizing people/nations gives them power. Blackrock, Vanguard, StateStreet, Fidelity, they're the ones on charge of WEF-stooges and the dialectic. Not the other way around. You don't get tranny Bud Light because Klaus Schwab said so. You don't get it because Klaus Schwab has so effectively propagandized the population into demanding it. You get it cause Larry Fink said so, and nobody is coercing him.
The biggest prank these capitalists ever pulled on decent people was to make them believe international financiers somehow share their conservative values and bootstrapped their way up trough rugged individualism to owning billions of dollars.
There is no such thing as "pure capitalism" . Unbridled capitalism simply leads to monopolistic society, something we now have in US (controlled by certain ethnic group 😁) . Pure capitalism and free markets are simply fictions, just like classless society of communists.
Are you using the word capitalism as private control of the means of production or corporatism
I'd call Evola's ideas "neo-fascism" not simply "fascism."
Neo-Fascism is real, but Neo-Marxism isn't? Okay buddy.
I thought they were "free marketers" when it came to trade on small to medium(medium-large) scale, but when dealing with large industry, requiring huge levels of funding, large corporations (with an incentive to monopolise) would be replaced/run by workers unions of the state. The idea being to protect the nation from foreign interests groups, and also to prevent rival powers to the state within the private sector. Correct me if I'm wrong.

These three groups have all been fighting against each other, in spirit if not physically, and that these occultists are part of this ancient religion. " It makes perfect sense
@@sdrc92126 That is nonsense.
I am a Christian, and I am an intellectual, and I know people who are this and occultists too, so someone can be all three at the same time.
Your categorization is false.
Whats a corporation? Why do free markets devolve or evolve depending on your perspective from sole ownership to collective ownership IE corporations? Theory of the firm suggests its a trust problem. Democracy is the political free market tamed by the trust problem. We have political parties because people want them. They form collectives, white vs black, gay vs straight, pro health care vs anti health care etc, etc. Im not a fascist, its gay. That said the traditional liberal individualistic perspective is too weak to exist in the current political sadly.
Everytime you quoted the book, all I could hear was "Submit to the state. Submit to the nation. Sumbit to society. Submit to more important interests that transcend you."
Tell me again why people believe that Marxism and Fascism are radically different? Why are there people that think that Fascism is like "Ultra Capitalism"?
Why do they think that Marx and Hitler are opposites?
Super duper mega capitalism where u can't freely hire or fire workers😂
Because the analysis is desperately inaccurate. Collectivism is the leverage to power. Beyond that, it's potluck what they purport to believe. The nation state is only a framework for mass political power. The national economy is a framework to leverage control over mass resources. After that, it's pick your poison on how it is ordered: race, nation, state, religion, hierarchy, economy. Individuality is sacrificed to Order. They are all claims to legitimacy. But, in civilisation Individuals need to cooperate to get by, and thus, how we cooperate with each other should really defined from the granular level of the individual. But, will it ever be so? No. Somebody will always try to impose their vision of order won't they? Lol.
Marxists uses totalitarian methods to promote the weak (proles), leading to genocide of the strong (kulaks).
National socialism uses totalitarian methods to promote the strong (the Germanic ethno-linguistic "nation") leading to genocide of the weak (JQ)
Fascism uses totalitarian methods to promote the nation state itself, and implicitly all citizens
So Nazism and Marxism are opposites once you have accepted totalitarian socialism as the status quo (rejecting liberalism and feudalism)
Both despise fascism for protecting the enemy class
In my view fascism will inevitably fail because it's a totalitarian socialist project, but it's likely to lead to much less death than Marxist communism or national socialism

35:56 I disagree with you here,duty and loyalty is a good thing,a strong and heroic man must be dutiful to his religion,nation,familly,community and goverment(assuming its a good government and not corrupt or ideologically invalid),yes the socialists apply duty in a completely terrible way but that doesnt mean duty itself is bad and also regarding race,race is proven by genetics and rascism doesnt have to be eugenical or socialistic, it could just be segregationist(like America before MLK)
The problem is with this publication is it’s not very good and it’s mostly just propaganda. I would recommend checking out my introduction to corporatism I wrote instead. It’s far more concrete in it’s argumentation. The biggest issue with iron march publications is they try to avoid being bogged down to a position and really only appeal to the nation/state to justify complete total pragmatism which is just nonsense.
Survival of the fittest within the "race" can just mean that the best within the race are having more children, thus keeping the "race" strong. So it's not necessarily a contradiction.
‘Best’ and ‘fittest’ aren’t at all the same thing. You’re putting the ‘cart before the horse’ by saying “the best…have more children”. Specimens are fittest because they produce more offspring. They’re not fit to reproduce, they’re fit because they reproduce.
@12:20 "Collectivism is Individualism seeking strength in numbers" is a sleight of hand. Individualism is being used instead of "individuals." Individualism is strictly a philosophy of the individual irrespective of any "strength in numbers" which undermines and defeats the meaning and purpose of the individual which is their own individuality or "difference" as distinct from the "sameness" of the group or collective. Individualism is not about "shared interest" or what is common, but rather uncommon or special.
Hey Tik, hope you're all good.
I'm doing alright, thanks, you? I needed a break from Stalingrad so I've spent today doing research on the Battle of Gazala. It's the first time in a while that I've done battle-related work that was fun to actually do
Ok this is a little out of left field, but a god awaking and the individuals becoming one collective is exactly what happens during the 3rd impact in Neon Evangelion Genesis, which is an old and really neat anime about people fighting against the messages of god trying to kill us, and the dark forces trying to make humans in to one collective.
Is it just me, or is the concept of political theory just compleat gibberish?
probably just you but correct anyway... except your spelling of complete, of course... unless that's a new word, which I like btw, that expresses completeness and repleatness as a nuanced concept.
There is no individuals without the group. No grouo without the individual. It is a balancing act.
Good video, sir.
If there is only individualism, then how come you don't say: there are only individual cells, they dont form a colective, when they clearly do, and it is called a body. It is like denying the existence of our bodies. And how is it possible that certain groups of people have distinct cultures from other groups of people. It is because colectives exist, it is because a big nuber of people does form and can behave as a single organism. The universe is a fractal. Also, believing in absolute truth hardly makes you a gnostic.
I've not watched this yet, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess what it's going to basically say.
"Serve the Hive. Serve the Colony. Serve the Hive."
Yes, but there's a bit more to it than that, e.g. the "Cosmic Order" and "ultimate Truth" concepts
@@TheImperatorKnight Doesn't sound any different than the Uplifted in Galaxy's Edge series. (New Sci-Fi Opera thing I've been getting into lately.)
The Savage Wars trilogy is really good for what I'm talking about, and you are talking about in this video.
Great series overhaul. Worth getting into if you like fiction and Sci-fi.

The problem that many don't understand is that once you get to the place where you have banks. Banks create money. Now if you don't believe me you need to listen to Milton Friedman when you pass money back and forth between banks you create money privately. You can play a game by yourself on paper to see how this works the banks asset value will rise because because they can count the same deposits more than once if the beginning loaning money back and forth to each other all without ever violating the requirement to keep a reserve on deposit. As long as the money can be just numbers on paper not actual gold or silver you can't get away from this problem. People don't want to carry gold and silver around to buy and sell everything which is how banks came into being. They had to tell people that their money was insured against loss to get back the trust in banks. They also had to create the central bank because of this. How do you have a capitalism without money and banks? Why do you think so many banks failed durring the great depression? They use to issue private money durring the great depression. Why is this possible? Because you only keep a fractional amount of the total on deposit. Now you have the German and Japanese Central Banks having zero interest rates. The problem is that most people suspect something fishy about banks but don't really understand how capitalism involves both the circulation of money and the creation of capital. You think you can just easily assign prices with a market and forget that when you put money into a market it becomes possible to create more money and thereby change all the prices. That's why in a real socialist country not only are they internationalist in out look they try and get away from commodity production the production of commodities for money. This is why in Cuba people appear to be living much better than their salaries would imply.
Keep going, man! I absolutely love these videos!
A Socialist is one who serves the common good without giving up his individuality or personality or the product of his personal efficiency. Our adopted term "Socialist" has nothing to do with Marxian Socialism. Marxism is anti-property true Socialism is not. Marxism places no value on the individual or individual effort or efficiency, true Socialism values the individual and encourages him in individual efficiency at the same time holding that his interests as an individual must be in consonance with those of the community. All great inventions, discoveries, achievements were first the product of an individual brain.

Liberalism and free markets are a religion too. In fact, every political ideology is.
Your source is AA isn't it lol
Actually, it's not. I know AA's turned in the Evola direction recently but in this case it's not him.
@TheImperatorKnight oh, thanks for the reply. Hmm I'm curious who it could be now 🤔
@@TheImperatorKnight this is why I'm not a fan of AA. He always rubbed me the wrong way despite having a great video on Yuri Bezmenov.
Your gnostic hypothesis seems a pretty rich vein. Religious aspects of collectivism have been manifest at least since 20 Prairial Year II and Herbert’s Cult of Reason. The same tendencies have surfaced in every socialist movement, and socialist state over the years. Your ideas here make a real contribution to understanding the common character of socialism in all its various forms. Really great work!
I have the day off AND TIK drops a 58 minute long video???
There is a god!
Well, I hope you enjoy it :)
I think ”struggle“ is not a correct translation of *Kampf* . Or at least not always. Kampf also means fight and I think *Kampf* is meant way more actively, while struggle is more passively, so it is more like straucheln, where you can put a *Kampf* upon it to end the struggle. Like class struggle is not always meant to be *Klassenkampf* , it is a struggle and an active role played by politicians corrupted by greed and money that set up policies to put the conditions upon the lower classes which resultatively begin to struggle. With endeavour, they say - the bourgeoisie - you can climb the ladder and become one of them, and Anarchists claim that after their bloody revolution, everyone will be his own bourgeois. When Hitler mentions »größte Anstrengungen« in speeches, then a lot of people translate this to »great struggle«, but it actually means horrendous effort was put in. The English translations, especially the newer ones, are problematic.
Edit: with *Kampf* is mostly meant to have a fight against other peoples, while *Beendigung des Klassenkampfes/Klassenhasses* means to end the fight within the own people (the Volk) when it comes to Nationalsocialism.
they water down what hitler actually said which is weird since hitler isnt one to beat around the bush and the choice of translating it like he is
@@laisphinto6372 I would say they do because his speeches and texts were much more differentiated than pseudo-communists want to hear and they would hear that Hitler is leaning hard on communism. And it is even more strange that this watering down happens a lot in anglophone countries with translations.
Trek?
@@sdrc92126 what do you want to say?
@@SchmulKrieger Just a thought. Trek could be a loose synonym of battle. Also _Star Trek_ is very gnostic
Thank you for taking one for the team and parsing through all this ideobabble TIK.
The way he capitalizes the beginning of so many seemingly random words is grating. Like either it's for emphasis or he's using them as pronouns, which would mean they're just the name of something or an idea, not the actual word it represents. It's one thing to write ideobabble, another to do it with poor grammar.
The evil I could tolerate, but the stupid... bleck.
It makes sense that third positionists might be gaining some popularity with the political bifurcation we've been experiencing in America and other parts of the world. It's both interesting and obvious that they would reject the Left-Right dichotomy the same as many of the more Libertarian minded.
