Will to Power Lots of chatter, but people may have wrong ideas about in what matter to use and when. Right now, the people need to start showing up at their local town/city meanings demanding removal of foreign ACTORS from their courts and tax collector offices. And, demand a local Police department display of their force swearing allegiance to THE PEOPLE...not a foreign system. And, the people need to realize there are good men and women on their police forces that risk their lives to actually serve, protect, and defend them in emergencies. And, those officers need to file whistleblower complaints on those who should not be there because bad actors will be a stain on the entire department, which is how things have gotten so bad in communities. All that being said, a good many people would like nothing more than to have troops shut down Congress until every member is reviewed by investigators with direct criminal referrals into military TRIBUNALS.
C Green It is a FACT that the US is in the middle of a cultural revolution. So far, it has mostly been with words, but I believe that will change. The Marxists in what was the Democrat Party LIE to the people in Public hearings, the so called PRESS have made a mockery of Freedom of the Press. They Publicize a False narrative to promote their Marxist Agenda. Marxist Activists have been trying to eliminate the Electoral College in order to take the rights of middle America away from us. They want a direct Democracy so the can jam their big city way of life down the throats of rural people that wouldn't be caught DEAD in a big city. Politicians like Senile Nancy Pelosi lives in a walled mansion with armed guards in the SF bay area. Big mouth Maxine Waters owns several large, expensive homes and lives in a Mansion that is not even in her own District, which is required by Law. Both of these two Traitors are millionaires. They have both had financial projects approved in their Districts approved by Congress that directly benefited them. In a different time of our country's History, these two phonies would have been HUNG. Instead, we observe and hear the garbage these Traitors say to the Public as a matter of course. Apparently, the only way to stop it is with Civil War. Keep your guns, you're going to need them.
@@cgreen6420 At least in Pelosi's case, she has a 10 foot high wall around her mansion in San Francisco. Armed guards. I'm assuming they have paid full time guards around the property, not just Congressional armed guards. I don't know about Maxine Waters houses and her mansion, but AFAIK, she's not in San Francisco. Waters isn't qualified to be a waitress in an all night diner. I've flushed better human specimens down my toilet every morning that either of those two Traitors.
I'm from Detroit, I would driven 2hrs to hear professor Hanson. Wish I knew more about his event dates and accessibility. Great lecture/lesson, thanks for uploading!
Bravo to another speech by Professor Hanson. I will never get tired listening to his thoughts, his true feelings, and his knowledge, and his introspectiveness. He knows the-in-and-outs of today and the past so very well.
@Jeannie Seibert Sometime last week I was watching Fox (either business or news, can't remember which) and they announced- "upcoming... the author of the book 'Justice on Trial'." I anxiously awaited to hear from Mollie, but was bummed that it was just her coauthor Carrie Severino. Not that I have anything against Carrie, but I enjoy hearing Mollie speak, in particular. I only live about an hour west of Hillsdale, MI. Had I known their vales and reputation a decade ago, I would've loved attending there. Favorite college AND UA-cam channel.
This speech should be a mandatory requirement for every new Congressman or Senator. It is criminal that our political representatives have no clue of the history our great country was built upon!

I love listening to Mr.Hanson. I learned so much from him about ancient civilizations and their wars. I love listening to history lectures. Especially ones of the Ancient world.
Same age & I've had enough Trying to make them see Common Sense & or the Truth! I warned our grandchildren, we will be in a Civil War before I die, but if not They Will have to fight the evil. I shake my head & am So angry that Like Victor Hanson said - IF any courageous Police person had Arrested & Charged those AntiFa long ago, This would have Stopped already - but so far it's Not happened. I also blame Pres. Trump a little because the Criminals in our Govt are NOT arrested yet... 2 years ago if Comey, Brennen etc.. been indicted & this next Coup would not be happening. I've prepped our home, food, water, ammo etc.. But it makes me very sad. Wonder what those kids are taking (drugs or ?) to make them So anti-american Crazy?
Ethnicity does matter for nationality. In fact, those words mean the same thing. IQ and behavior varies so much by race that no other group could have created the US and no other group will sustain it. You cannot separate biology from human civilization. Case in point, Haiti and Detroit.
Having a passion for Greek history I read Victor Davis Hanson more than 20 years ago. Hillsdale has done a wonderful thing to give us the opportunity to learn from a great mind. Their online courses of Athens and Sparta and the Second World Wars, Victor Davis Hanson teaches us how yesterday affects today.

Victor is one of the smartest, most articulate individuals in our time/country. Always time well spent in listening to his presentations, reading his books, and hearing his responses to questions.
Always enjoy listening to his great speeches. VDH is all intelligence and wisdom wrapped into one great being. Thank you, thank you for speaking loud and clear. It’s unfortunate some will never get the message.
VDH is one of the brilliant minds of the times. His speaking reminds me of the book ‘The Law, by Frederic Claude Bastiat.’ Reminding us all of the importance of the constitution and the challenges this country continues to face in defending it. We must all not just watch and take notes about what this great man says but also taking his message and sharing it to our friends and family. God bless.
I have asked my progressive yet brilliant 14 year old son to watch some VDH vids. I would be thrilled if his critical, discerning, pragmatic mind gave these solid ideas a chance. At least as a spring board for constructive family conversation. I am alone against my brilliant yet cared for wife and the indoctrination of my children by their mother who equates equality of result to kindness and fairness and the private bougie education they are receiving. That I am paying for😐. Wish me luck.
Paul. I pray to the good lord above that your family at least gives this video a chance and that they’re able to reason through logic and not through feelings and emotion.
VDH is so smart, every time he speaks, a fatal vision that has been haunting me is strengthened: "All is lost" because the country is headed the way of California, the once Golden State. God help us.
Absolutely brilliant... Hanson is the bomb on so many levels and what bothers me is that he's not being picked up by what's being deemed the "intellectual dark web". That while they are purporting to be "libertarian" or "classical liberal", seem afraid to bring this man on to their shows. I'm educated in many of the areas Hanson gets into and wish I had this man as one of my prof's back in the day. Just brilliant!
J.L.: Is it true that VDH “is not being picked up by the intellectual dark web”? Perhaps he doesn’t want to do it. Perhaps we must request him on our IDW programs..?
, will be to alter our requirements in our educational systems to include the principles of on which our republic was founded. Thank you Doctor Hanson for such a wonderful discussion and analysis in this presentation.
@@jannikthorsen3531 I will take that all day long over a globalist, multinational government that's so far removed from the average person they don't even know what one looks like. Like the EU and the European Commission.
Thank you so much for speaking out. The only apparent fact in this political war is the intelligent people are conservative and you are unmatched. .. best regards Tony Facciolo
The perspective he provides to today's political debate is invaluable. That many Americans have forgotten what has made this country unique in its ability to provide for the great benefit of its citizens and the world is hugely lamentable. That some politicians will denigrate, rather than celebrate, our country's greatest is deplorable.
I enjoy your talks VDH. Been following you for a few years now. It's so nice to have reason, logic, and a well articulated narrative of what your speaking about.
Throughout this talk by VDH gives such an excellent breakdown of what is going on in politics and culture, and by the end of the questions he just nails it all, with distinguishing the two differing views that boil down to the choice between arrogant, dismissive of others progressivism or a balanced realistic conservativism that just sees things as they are and tries for an optimum approach that does not let one side laud it over the other; requiring both to parties to play by sane and constructive principles and the rule of law. Victor Davis Hanson says it best and I will listen to this talk again and take notes.
Thank you for sharng your thoughts today. But most of all I want to thank you for giving me hope. You have given me a better understanding of the problems we are facing as a nation. In order to solve a problem, you need to understand what that problem is and what causes it.You have done that for me today.
The decline of American nationalism had its physical origins in Kennedy's 1960s Immigration Act. Before that, the American peoples were predominantly of western European origin and more or less shared a common European ethnicity and value system. It was therefore possible to realize the great unifying ideas embodied in the US Constitution, which had their ideological origin in Europe. It was a conceit of the Founding Fathers to imagine that their creation was universally applicable; it was designed by Europeans for an essentially European population. Since the 60s, extra-European mass immigration has been changing the ethnicity and value systems of the country. Consequently we see the decline of American nationalism and the steady disintegration of civic life (Re. Putnam's Bowling Alone and Murray 's Coming Apart). (A similar pattern can be seen in the late Roman Empire. Rome's great unifying idea was civitas, citizenship, which was extendable to the ethnically and culturally similar Mediterranean world. This worked well enough until mass immigration from the north and the east upset the Empire's ethnic composition and value systems, and things began coming apart). Continued mass third-world immigration into the West will inevitably bring about its collapse. This is of course what the globalists want. And those well-meaning, empathy-torn, pro-mass immigration liberals who cannot and will not see the the longer-term consequences of their beliefs, well ... they're the useful idiots.
People tend to forget that Rome was not a liberal democracy held together by shared civic values, but a series of dictatorships under the stern rule of an imperial power. Diversity can be held together by force (modern Russia, for example), but when people are free they inevitably assert their tribal identities and differences.
Jennifer Lawrence - Rome was a republic mostly comprised of people with a significantly similar cultural, intellectual & philosophical background. As it expanded, the shared background of the Roman population became increasingly diluted. Likewise, the republican nature of the Roman political system eroded, but largely what truly dismantled the republic was the introduction of having an emperor; which, if I’m not mistaken, Julius Caesar was the 1st Roman Emperor. So you’re right, & wrong, depending on which time period of Ancient Rome we’re looking at.
@@EricBoston1992 When did Rome have universal suffrage? If something like ANTIFA wanted to organize politically would it be (a) crushed by force, or (b) crushed by force? The point is that those (and there are many, strangely) who say _"Well multiculturalism/multi-racialism worked in Rome, so it can work in our liberal Democracies"_ are not just comparing apples and oranges, but apples and tractors. Rome's Republic - politically advanced though it was for it's time - would be considered virtually a fascist dictatorship now if it's system was implemented today. Individuals did not have anywhere near as much liberty as they do now under liberal democracy. My point is that with our modern freedom comes the ability for anyone to engage in divisive identity politics - to an extent that people in more authoritarian political systems can't, as such things would be shut down by the powers that be.
@@EricBoston1992 continued: In states with high degrees of individual liberty, social unity/harmony has to arise organically if it is to happen at all. In more authoritarian states (e.g modern Russia again) they can have quite a lot of ethnic/tribal diversity in the federation and still have social unity/harmony enforced from above by the state. The moment they become a real liberal democracy those various groups are all going to be agitating for separation, autonomy, power, etc and the federation will gradually break up (e.g the Chechens and others will want to branch off on their own). So the choice we in the West are faced with is: do we prioritize Diversity or Liberty? If we prioritize the former (as we have, sadly) we can't be surprised that it produces tribalism, division, and ultimately authoritarianism (see the various "hate speech" laws and the like springing up to placate the feelings of groups who's votes political parties want). If we want to prioritize individual liberty and still have high degrees of social harmony, then we need to consider what kind of demographic conditions are most favorable to those outcomes (i.e high degrees of homogeneity). This is ultimately why I believe Hansen is wrong about Ethnic-Nationalism. The divisive identity politics (and the corresponding erosion of individual freedom that goes with it) we see in the US, the UK and France (etc) now is the new normal, because it is the natural result of Diversity + Freedom. Humans are irredeemably tribal, and we must plan accordingly.
@@jenniferlawrence2701 Wow, "unwoke" and un PC. Our melting pot worked here in the "USA" until the rise of identity politics beginning in the 60's. Maybe because of the new found freedom of the 60's minorities found their voice....Is "celebrate diversity" then just a phony catchphrase?
VDH's vision of nationalism is a suicidal proposition. In order for it to work, he would have to convince vast swaths of minorities not to engage in tribalistic identity politics, and he is never going to be able to do that. All he is doing is pacifying the White Communinty into not defending themselves as a group, even though they are being attacked as a group. Just look at his audience at 33:30 it's ALL White people. Not a single minority in the audience.
George Will just wrote a piece a few days ago about how horrible Trump is and why he needs to be removed. The never Trumpers are biting off their noses to spite their faces, and it’s completely idiotic.
I never understood the respect given to George Will. He is an idiot. One of the main reasons he gave for the impossibility of removing 10 million illegals was because it would take 200,000 buses. Only if they all had to leave on the same day. 200 buses once a day could remove all the illegals in just a few years. But I never graduated from Yale like Will.
What is Nationalism? Simply, it is a natural pride for you nation and all nations have it. Not only do the people of all nations have this, no nation would survive as a nation without it. Nationalism was a main factor in the saving of England during during ww2, then called the Blitz spirit. Any nations history is the backbone for it's nationalism(good or bad). For today's Globalist the policy of not teaching America's good history and only focusing on it's bad, is an agenda to prevent young people from developing pride in their nation. Nationalism of course like anything else humans do can be good or bad. An example is the old west town that comes together to put out a fire (good), but coming together to form a lunch mob( bad). I thought your lecture was very good and informative and you are one of the reasons I contribute to Hillsdale College. Thank you! PS. Just a thought here. God said; "I alone establish all nations", this statement gives a person a good idea how he would feel about globalism.
VDH is a national treasure. I didn’t start reading him until fall of 2016’ but I’ve since read his books and watched many of his lectures on the The Peloponnesian War, Second World War’s, Savior Generals, and his most recent book about the President. His column on American Greatness is a must read every week, as is his column at NR (have to hold your nose over the crazed NeverTrumper buffoons like French and Nordlinger...).
....and the quiet strong voice rose from the end of the town hall meeting...it was the voice of reason and it resonated with the people who enjoyed freedom and liberty. God is shrewd when he chooses that voice.
“If our elite cannot tell the difference between white nationalism and western civilization or what makes America great, I think we’re in big trouble.” Ayaan Hirsi Ali on the West, Dawa, and Islam - UA-cam interview.
What a wonderful historian, orator, and mind Hanson is. This speech should be required listening because it broaches very important subjects that I think many don't understand, that Hanson does a great job of clarifying. His explanation of the importance of citizenship, the differences between versions of nationalism(good and bad) the Constitution, where the societal erosions are along with institutional foundations, and even how "cancel culture," mobocracy, elitism(transnationalism), and technocratic hegemony, are all discussions that need to be had and made clear. Hanson's speech is invaluable here, and I hope many pay attention closely. He almost seems both concerned and saddened by the state of decay in this great country, and even internationally; especially since the ability to get out of this rut is available in many ways and we seem to be encouraging our own demise. Good stuff. Gave me some stuff to think about.
The great mystery is why someone as smart as Hansen doesn't see that the current trajectory of the USA was always the inevitable outcome of Civic Nationalism in a liberal democracy.
I could see it happening, but apathy runs deep and the local politicians know how to sell snake oil very well. Streets are covered in human waste. Mismanaged government funds. Did you know it costs $75k to house a prisoner in a concrete box and be fed crap school lunches? That's more than a year at Harvard! How about the bullet train? MIllions....vanished. Lot of rich politicians though. Unironically if you look at these major cities that are failing. They are made up of many smaller cities/counties. The counties the politicians live in are clean. The police keep the homeless across the street...across the county line. I listened to a speech that suggested the National Gaurd would have to be deployed to CA when it finally collapses under it's own weight. Being the 5th largested economy is a farce. Building owners across the city allow Air B&B in their units when there is what is becoming an extreme housing shortage. Recent numbers put homeless in LA at 60k every night. Anti-Vaxxers are endlessly attacked to cover for uncontrolled immigration and the diseases that come with it. CA politicians preach sedition through their Social Media. Yadda yadda AMA
I have to disagree that we do have at least one to stand up against the violent people and that's been Donald J Trump POTUS. We need more like him in our political debates. I'm trying at the local level in Southern California. I've spoken and told them they work for us. I'll continue to do so.

Waters isn't qualified to be a waitress in an all night diner. I've flushed better human specimens down my toilet every morning that either of those two Traitors.
I'm from Detroit, I would driven 2hrs to hear professor Hanson. Wish I knew more about his event dates and accessibility. Great lecture/lesson, thanks for uploading!
It's sad that there's no young people in the audience watching this brilliant man speak!
Maybe the audience is donors?
It’s good that younger right wingers see through this phony and outdated thinking .
@@duduoson1306 looks like you don't do much thinking lol phony and outdated which is it two different meanings lol
They are busy playing call of Duty and Mind craft

Bravo to another speech by Professor Hanson. I will never get tired listening to his thoughts, his true feelings, and his knowledge, and his introspectiveness. He knows the-in-and-outs of today and the past so very well.
I really appreciate these videos... Not everyone is losing their minds and that makes me believe I've not lost mine 😂
Thank you, Hillsdale. May God watch over this good man. An old Chinese curse to one's foe, "May you live in interesting times." We are there.
Victor Davis Hanson really makes sense. He is a true American patriot, he understands why America is truly unique.
Victor Davis Hanson brought me to this channel
I think I also found this channel by VDH. But I ended up staying for Larry P. Arnn. Both are awesome speakers.
Ideas and Men ... this is no mere UA-cam channel, but I’m glad you’re here nonetheless. Welcome.
@Jeannie Seibert
Sometime last week I was watching Fox (either business or news, can't remember which) and they announced- "upcoming... the author of the book 'Justice on Trial'." I anxiously awaited to hear from Mollie, but was bummed that it was just her coauthor Carrie Severino. Not that I have anything against Carrie, but I enjoy hearing Mollie speak, in particular.
I only live about an hour west of Hillsdale, MI. Had I known their vales and reputation a decade ago, I would've loved attending there.
Favorite college AND UA-cam channel.
This speech should be a mandatory requirement for every new Congressman or Senator. It is criminal that our political representatives have no clue of the history our great country was built upon!
Dont never forget Repub. Do know who were from the State of Texas ! Or south ! The dems in congress they to know ! But. The children of Dem citys have not been taught
Thd real truth about history or Gov. Or any thing pertaining to life !
Because Dems chose to rewrite history to hide the crines And thd líes about racisum ! Ted Crues gavd a lesson con Kkk that told exactly how it begain ! And what group of gov. Started it and thd líes about how civil dar begain ! Every one should watchers it ! Se in Texas were taught more than regular Gov. Issued history of the world ! We took books from librarys
And reportes from them ! .vdry seldom used our school Gov. Issued history books ! And thats how we learned ! Alzó those of us learned from our Great Grand Parents !
And Grand Parents ! De learned more about N.Y.
Than real N. Y. Kids know about their down state or town ! Dems were shocked at the gall Red. Cruces had to tell thd true facts about what they continúe to teatch kids ! Knowing its all líes ! But Yet This is what Dems are
Best known for ! Keeping .América dumned .down ! People
just for some reason refuse to believe thd real facts ! And find confort in

Oh yes, I just've been searching for something new from Mr. Hanson, I'm so happy to see new longer lecture. Thanks HC for posting!
I feel my IQ went up from listening to Mr. Hanson :)
Thank you for posting here for everyone to see and listen to.
I love listening to Mr.Hanson. I learned so much from him about ancient civilizations and their wars. I love listening to history lectures. Especially ones of the Ancient world.
Wow! What an amazing speech! The Q&A session was great too. We need this guy in this age of the elite gone wild!
I'm 64 and I'm just so tired of being the only reasonable one that wants to talk.
I hear you loud and clear. 61 here and I, too, suffer the same dilema.
Same age & I've had enough Trying to make them see Common Sense & or the Truth! I warned our grandchildren, we will be in a Civil War before I die, but if not They Will have to fight the evil. I shake my head & am So angry that Like Victor Hanson said - IF any courageous Police person had Arrested & Charged those AntiFa long ago, This would have Stopped already - but so far it's Not happened. I also blame Pres. Trump a little because the Criminals in our Govt are NOT arrested yet... 2 years ago if Comey, Brennen etc.. been indicted & this next Coup would not be happening. I've prepped our home, food, water, ammo etc.. But it makes me very sad. Wonder what those kids are taking (drugs or ?) to make them So anti-american Crazy?
Ethnicity does matter for nationality. In fact, those words mean the same thing. IQ and behavior varies so much by race that no other group could have created the US and no other group will sustain it. You cannot separate biology from human civilization. Case in point, Haiti and Detroit.

@@Dabhach1Ah, yes. I remember being young enough to know that I know everything. Brilliant, isn't it?!
VDH is again right on, he’s such a great and logical speaker, analyzing such difficult and complex subjects cannot be done by anyone else.
Man I can listen to this man talk all day! So much wisdom
Without Question the most aware, informed, honest speaker i have ever listened to.
💕DITTO🌟🦊
Once again, VDH knocks it outta the park with intellect. I always enjoy his speeches.
Having a passion for Greek history I read Victor Davis Hanson more than 20 years ago. Hillsdale has done a wonderful thing to give us the opportunity to learn from a great mind. Their online courses of Athens and Sparta and the Second World Wars, Victor Davis Hanson teaches us how yesterday affects today.
Jeffrey Browy the second world wars was one of the best, things I've not thought of or not been taught. Brilliant man
Thank you Mr. Hanson. I appreciate your thoughtful and wise presentations...and books. Please keep it up. The USA needs your voice. Trump 2020!

every class needs to hear this, every school across America
Thank you Hillsdale for championing the unique vision and eloquence of Dr. VDH.
A voice like no other.
Victor is one of the smartest, most articulate individuals in our time/country. Always time well spent in listening to his presentations, reading his books, and hearing his responses to questions.
Always enjoy listening to his great speeches. VDH is all intelligence and wisdom wrapped into one great being. Thank you, thank you for speaking loud and clear. It’s unfortunate some will never get the message.
Wishing VDH long life and happiness💕 people on Earth nerd you🙏👍
"Need"* you! 🙏
Always a great experience to listen to Dr. Victor Davis Hanson!
VDH is one of the brilliant minds of the times. His speaking reminds me of the book ‘The Law, by Frederic Claude Bastiat.’ Reminding us all of the importance of the constitution and the challenges this country continues to face in defending it. We must all not just watch and take notes about what this great man says but also taking his message and sharing it to our friends and family. God bless.
Victor Davis Hanson is a wonderful asset to America! We need more men like him. God bless you and keep you and your family safe. 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have asked my progressive yet brilliant 14 year old son to watch some VDH vids. I would be thrilled if his critical, discerning, pragmatic mind gave these solid ideas a chance. At least as a spring board for constructive family conversation. I am alone against my brilliant yet cared for wife and the indoctrination of my children by their mother who equates equality of result to kindness and fairness and the private bougie education they are receiving. That I am paying for😐. Wish me luck.
Good luck. 🤓
Any update?
Paul. I pray to the good lord above that your family at least gives this video a chance and that they’re able to reason through logic and not through feelings and emotion.
You don’t need luck. You need a backbone.
@@electronikdancemusik7524 how could you possibly discern that? You obviously know nothing of being a great father and husband.
I could listen to Victor Davis Hanson every day !
I do💕 His ability to relay truth and the honesty of real life is truely amazing (and so needed and welcome💕)
VDH is so smart, every time he speaks, a fatal vision that has been haunting me is strengthened: "All is lost" because the country is headed the way of California, the once Golden State. God help us.
Absolutely brilliant... Hanson is the bomb on so many levels and what bothers me is that he's not being picked up by what's being deemed the "intellectual dark web". That while they are purporting to be "libertarian" or "classical liberal", seem afraid to bring this man on to their shows. I'm educated in many of the areas Hanson gets into and wish I had this man as one of my prof's back in the day. Just brilliant!
J.L.: Is it true that VDH “is not being picked up by the intellectual dark web”? Perhaps he doesn’t want to do it. Perhaps we must request him on our IDW programs..?
, will be to alter our requirements in our educational systems to include the principles of on which our republic was founded. Thank you Doctor Hanson for such a wonderful discussion and analysis in this presentation.
It's a pure pleasure listening to Victor Davis Hanson.
Thank you to the audience who gave this speaker a standing ovation! :) Well deserved!
I really enjoy listening to him. Hillsdale College does a great job of educating about our orgins.

Praying for that🙏💕🇺🇲
The perspective he provides to today's political debate is invaluable. That many Americans have forgotten what has made this country unique in its ability to provide for the great benefit of its citizens and the world is hugely lamentable. That some politicians will denigrate, rather than celebrate, our country's greatest is deplorable.
Too bad the college's in America don't teach truth like this guy's teaching.
VDH was a professor at UCSC, Stanford, Cowell College and CSU Fresno. Lots of other great history teachers too...
OVERHAUL educational systems & philosophies.
Our ENEMY has controlled education more than 75~100 years.
Thus the dumbing down of graduates & society.
We learn more from this guy in an hour than our children in learn in 16 years of public education.
I absolutely love VDH. Thank you for uploading this.
Listened twice and will listen again and again, Hanson, I love you.
I enjoy your talks VDH. Been following you for a few years now. It's so nice to have reason, logic, and a well articulated narrative of what your speaking about.
This was the best presentation I have seen in years. Well done!
Rome government discovered that loyalty could only be gained through earned citizenship, not through its allies or peoples breaching its borders.
...well that and violence. People who hold up Rome as an ideal of multi-racial harmony often forget to mention it wasn't exactly a liberal democracy.
Rome defeated Rome! The road the dems have us on!
Throughout this talk by VDH gives such an excellent breakdown of what is going on in politics and culture, and by the end of the questions he just nails it all, with distinguishing the two differing views that boil down to the choice between arrogant, dismissive of others progressivism or a balanced realistic conservativism that just sees things as they are and tries for an optimum approach that does not let one side laud it over the other; requiring both to parties to play by sane and constructive principles and the rule of law. Victor Davis Hanson says it best and I will listen to this talk again and take notes.
Victor Davis Hanson, you’re speech in October 2019 at Hillsdale college was brilliant
Thank you for sharng your thoughts today. But most of all I want to thank you for giving me hope. You have given me a better understanding of the problems we are facing as a nation. In order to solve a problem, you need to understand what that problem is and what causes it.You have done that for me today.
Yes!! A new VDH lecture!!
😎😎😎
If anyone should be listened to when he says 'past is prologue,' it's VDH. This man is a national treasure.
The decline of American nationalism had its physical origins in Kennedy's 1960s Immigration Act. Before that, the American peoples were predominantly of western European origin and more or less shared a common European ethnicity and value system. It was therefore possible to realize the great unifying ideas embodied in the US Constitution, which had their ideological origin in Europe. It was a conceit of the Founding Fathers to imagine that their creation was universally applicable; it was designed by Europeans for an essentially European population. Since the 60s, extra-European mass immigration has been changing the ethnicity and value systems of the country. Consequently we see the decline of American nationalism and the steady disintegration of civic life (Re. Putnam's Bowling Alone and Murray 's Coming Apart).
(A similar pattern can be seen in the late Roman Empire. Rome's great unifying idea was civitas, citizenship, which was extendable to the ethnically and culturally similar Mediterranean world. This worked well enough until mass immigration from the north and the east upset the Empire's ethnic composition and value systems, and things began coming apart).
Continued mass third-world immigration into the West will inevitably bring about its collapse. This is of course what the globalists want. And those well-meaning, empathy-torn, pro-mass immigration liberals who cannot and will not see the the longer-term consequences of their beliefs, well ... they're the useful idiots.
People tend to forget that Rome was not a liberal democracy held together by shared civic values, but a series of dictatorships under the stern rule of an imperial power. Diversity can be held together by force (modern Russia, for example), but when people are free they inevitably assert their tribal identities and differences.
Jennifer Lawrence - Rome was a republic mostly comprised of people with a significantly similar cultural, intellectual & philosophical background. As it expanded, the shared background of the Roman population became increasingly diluted.
Likewise, the republican nature of the Roman political system eroded, but largely what truly dismantled the republic was the introduction of having an emperor; which, if I’m not mistaken, Julius Caesar was the 1st Roman Emperor.
So you’re right, & wrong, depending on which time period of Ancient Rome we’re looking at.
@@EricBoston1992 When did Rome have universal suffrage? If something like ANTIFA wanted to organize politically would it be (a) crushed by force, or (b) crushed by force? The point is that those (and there are many, strangely) who say _"Well multiculturalism/multi-racialism worked in Rome, so it can work in our liberal Democracies"_ are not just comparing apples and oranges, but apples and tractors.
Rome's Republic - politically advanced though it was for it's time - would be considered virtually a fascist dictatorship now if it's system was implemented today. Individuals did not have anywhere near as much liberty as they do now under liberal democracy. My point is that with our modern freedom comes the ability for anyone to engage in divisive identity politics - to an extent that people in more authoritarian political systems can't, as such things would be shut down by the powers that be.
@@EricBoston1992 continued: In states with high degrees of individual liberty, social unity/harmony has to arise organically if it is to happen at all. In more authoritarian states (e.g modern Russia again) they can have quite a lot of ethnic/tribal diversity in the federation and still have social unity/harmony enforced from above by the state. The moment they become a real liberal democracy those various groups are all going to be agitating for separation, autonomy, power, etc and the federation will gradually break up (e.g the Chechens and others will want to branch off on their own).
So the choice we in the West are faced with is: do we prioritize Diversity or Liberty? If we prioritize the former (as we have, sadly) we can't be surprised that it produces tribalism, division, and ultimately authoritarianism (see the various "hate speech" laws and the like springing up to placate the feelings of groups who's votes political parties want). If we want to prioritize individual liberty and still have high degrees of social harmony, then we need to consider what kind of demographic conditions are most favorable to those outcomes (i.e high degrees of homogeneity).
This is ultimately why I believe Hansen is wrong about Ethnic-Nationalism. The divisive identity politics (and the corresponding erosion of individual freedom that goes with it) we see in the US, the UK and France (etc) now is the new normal, because it is the natural result of Diversity + Freedom. Humans are irredeemably tribal, and we must plan accordingly.
@@jenniferlawrence2701 Wow, "unwoke" and un PC. Our melting pot worked here in the "USA" until the rise of identity politics beginning in the 60's. Maybe because of the new found freedom of the 60's minorities found their voice....Is "celebrate diversity" then just a phony catchphrase?

VDH personifies Knowledge with Wisdom, it so refreshing and rare.
VDH's vision of nationalism is a suicidal proposition. In order for it to work, he would have to convince vast swaths of minorities not to engage in tribalistic identity politics, and he is never going to be able to do that. All he is doing is pacifying the White Communinty into not defending themselves as a group, even though they are being attacked as a group. Just look at his audience at 33:30 it's ALL White people. Not a single minority in the audience.
@@paleoconrevolt3273 Don't run with scissors.
Defending a failed ideology consisting of civic nationalism and multiracialism is not exactly a mark of wisdom and knowledge.
@@jannikthorsen3531 What an arrogant fool are you...
I could listen to VDH all day! He is really great!
VDH a beautiful mind - replaced George Will as the intellectual voice of conservatives when Will went home to pout over DJT win
George Will just wrote a piece a few days ago about how horrible Trump is and why he needs to be removed. The never Trumpers are biting off their noses to spite their faces, and it’s completely idiotic.
Thank god. He far outshines mr Will in every way.
AW Media what is wrong with classical liberalism within certain limits?
@@Scottlp2 nothing, but the dem party has been taken over by communists
I never understood the respect given to George Will. He is an idiot. One of the main reasons he gave for the impossibility of removing 10 million illegals was because it would take 200,000 buses. Only if they all had to leave on the same day. 200 buses once a day could remove all the illegals in just a few years. But I never graduated from Yale like Will.
What is Nationalism? Simply, it is a natural pride for you nation and all nations have it. Not only do the people of all nations have this, no nation would survive as a nation without it. Nationalism was a main factor in the saving of England during during ww2, then called the Blitz spirit. Any nations history is the backbone for it's nationalism(good or bad). For today's Globalist the policy of not teaching America's good history and only focusing on it's bad, is an agenda to prevent young people from developing pride in their nation. Nationalism of course like anything else humans do can be good or bad. An example is the old west town that comes together to put out a fire (good), but coming together to form a lunch mob( bad). I thought your lecture was very good and informative and you are one of the reasons I contribute to Hillsdale College. Thank you!
PS. Just a thought here. God said; "I alone establish all nations", this statement gives a person a good idea how he would feel about globalism.
VDH is a national treasure. I didn’t start reading him until fall of 2016’ but I’ve since read his books and watched many of his lectures on the The Peloponnesian War, Second World War’s, Savior Generals, and his most recent book about the President. His column on American Greatness is a must read every week, as is his column at NR (have to hold your nose over the crazed NeverTrumper buffoons like French and Nordlinger...).
Everybody in America should be made to watch this video before it’s too late. It’s August 2020!

....and the quiet strong voice rose from the end of the town hall meeting...it was the voice of reason and it resonated with the people who enjoyed freedom and liberty. God is shrewd when he chooses that voice.

Always a pleasure to here VDH... one of the most insightful people on this earth
“If our elite cannot tell the difference between white nationalism and western civilization or what makes America great, I think we’re in big trouble.” Ayaan Hirsi Ali on the West, Dawa, and Islam - UA-cam interview.
What a wonderful historian, orator, and mind Hanson is. This speech should be required listening because it broaches very important subjects that I think many don't understand, that Hanson does a great job of clarifying. His explanation of the importance of citizenship, the differences between versions of nationalism(good and bad) the Constitution, where the societal erosions are along with institutional foundations, and even how "cancel culture," mobocracy, elitism(transnationalism), and technocratic hegemony, are all discussions that need to be had and made clear.
Hanson's speech is invaluable here, and I hope many pay attention closely. He almost seems both concerned and saddened by the state of decay in this great country, and even internationally; especially since the ability to get out of this rut is available in many ways and we seem to be encouraging our own demise.
Good stuff. Gave me some stuff to think about.
God Bless and Keep Victor!
Excellent speech and Q&A. Thank you HC for sharing.

Question for Civic Nationalists: Will California ever turn Red?
Extremely unlikely.
The great mystery is why someone as smart as Hansen doesn't see that the current trajectory of the USA was always the inevitable outcome of Civic Nationalism in a liberal democracy.
With a voter id law it will...
I could see it happening, but apathy runs deep and the local politicians know how to sell snake oil very well. Streets are covered in human waste. Mismanaged government funds. Did you know it costs $75k to house a prisoner in a concrete box and be fed crap school lunches? That's more than a year at Harvard! How about the bullet train? MIllions....vanished. Lot of rich politicians though. Unironically if you look at these major cities that are failing. They are made up of many smaller cities/counties. The counties the politicians live in are clean. The police keep the homeless across the street...across the county line. I listened to a speech that suggested the National Gaurd would have to be deployed to CA when it finally collapses under it's own weight. Being the 5th largested economy is a farce. Building owners across the city allow Air B&B in their units when there is what is becoming an extreme housing shortage. Recent numbers put homeless in LA at 60k every night. Anti-Vaxxers are endlessly attacked to cover for uncontrolled immigration and the diseases that come with it. CA politicians preach sedition through their Social Media.
