When it comes to him not standing for anything I’ve always felt like his content is more about how people interact with politics, not the politics themselves
I dunno anything about the guy, but I think it's reasonable to expect a person to have some firm political positions if learning about it an commenting on it is their full time job.
Yes, he's Canadian, but as the US is the hegemonic superpower, it's almost inevitable that any political discussion will at the very least touch on the US, especially this close to an election. I'm from Europe and even here the US election is exhaustingly inescapable, because no matter the outcome, it will have a huge effect on the political climate here as well. This is of course is even more the case in Canada because of it's proximity.

@@jackieAZeverything is serious and consequential, those kids are going to grow up and still have thoughts. those thoughts will be the direct synthesis from the thoughts they have now and the environment that is acting upon them.
I'm a big Jreg fan but I think his schtick is running a bit thin on me. Like, I get it - he's a champion of authenticity and authentic community and free thought who simultaneously refuses to let his own thoughts be pinned down, and compulsively covers everything in several thick layers of irony. It's a good bit, it's good art, it's thought provoking, and I like it. But maybe I'm just tired of it now. I'm craving authenticity. I am unironically getting tired of post-irony. The world is getting kind of shitty right now and I want real discussion with the aim of arriving at answers, not just to mock, not just to provoke. And I like JJ for this reason - his radical moderatism, his nerdy dedication to boring good politics.
Jreg is first and foremost an entertainer. If his lack of authenticity is started to rub you the wrong way, then time to stop watching his videos and find more creators like JJ, I suppose.
The problem with that is boring good politics lead to nowhere because in order to participate in that kind of thing you have to ignore the fact that the world is run by psychopathic elite satanic dark magic wizards.
personally i think jj has a lot of flimsy positions that actually do come from privilege apologia, you call it good politics i call it slightly lazy but hey he gets away with it by wearing anime t-shirts
JREG is so close to a medical cocktail that actually creates a normal person. Just need to dial back the Vyvanse like 15% and maybe avoid caffeine before interviews.
JREG is prob the most resonant figure to me as a gen Z adult who grew up in niche political communities starting as a young teenager- his understanding of internet discourse on politics and the strange micro-labels that have been given power through it is honestly remarkable. I've watched him both as a libertarian capitalist & post-post-left-not anarchist and his videos hit more since I've gotten out of discourse-centered political communities online
@@InverseAgonist Centrism becomes a lot more appealing once you realize that like, you eat every day and have air conditioning. In the long view basically every American that isn't some schizo homeless lives in a sci fi utopia compared to most of humanity for most of its existence
Just discovered your channel, I want to say that yours is the first that I am more interested in the questions than the answers. I have not seen anyone with a more coherent grasp on the subject of online politics, I look forward to more
this worldview is a such a good indicator of societal domestication when real threats to life and liberty seem like distant dreams, believing in first principles becomes an outmoded sentiment for old people and autists
my summary of nick land is that he was a leftist edgelord who tried to combine his interests in dark/transgressive/occult/weird sci-fi and philosophy with a lot of post-leftist theory and amphetamines until he basically invented his own religion. ofc the speed had him thinking whatever he was doing was super important, and as a writer, he knew words and symbols just had to be powerful and invented his own gematria. thru a lot of extreme tweaking, land started believing his own religion and thinking he cracked the matrix code thru contact with some cosmic coincidence control center/roko’s basilisk/lovecraftian horror in the future using capitalism to retrocausally guide us to create it. and then he just uses philosophical technobabble to extoll the boring argument that capitalism is the best driver of innovation and his own weird duganite an-cap fantasy of thousands of tiny capitalist countries engaged in a process of evolution thru social darwinism (“hyperracism”) until we create a superintelligence that surpasses (and likely destroys) humanity
Libertinism and the occult have always been wrapped up in the far-right TBH. A lot of Satanism stuff is just borrowing the aesthetics of anti-Catholicism. Not really sure where to go with this but Land is probably a fan of Evola and I kind of worry about Grant Morrison. All that /x/ UFO lizard babble is in bed with eugenics and Calvinism.
I’ve never heard of Joshua Citarella or seen any of his content before but I’ve been a longtime jReg fan. It’s super cool seeing such a genuine side from jReg and the interview questions were on point the entire time. Subscribed!
I feel that "autism" "insane" "esoteric" are words that capitalism took to make us shut up and dissapear, the norm for an independent critical human is this state., like the way he see connections in everything like making examples with physics, gives me the idea he sees how the universe works and why what we are living is like a natural course, that gives you power to actually change stuff.
Hope you consider interviewing FD Signifier in the near future! Hes done a lot of work discussing the online left and the manosphere, which is an online space that i feel affects young mens politics infinitely more than these political compass fringe communities. Really would like to see you zero in on that and I definitely say FD Signifier is the best candidate to discuss this with. Also would be cool to hear from organizers like Chris Smalls or Yannis Varoufakis, would like to hear their perspectives on how the internet stuff affects real life.
I like FD signifier but he misses the whole eugenics/neurodiversity angle on the manosphere. A lot of the incel stuff is pretty much pro-ana Calvinism for teenage boys and closeted transgender girls. It's all wrapped up in psychology, bodybuilding, yoga and wellness which have deep eugenicist roots. Fascism is also only the statist form of social Darwinism. Libertarianism/ancapism/Anarcho-Monarchism is pretty just much just non-state social Darwinism. Liberalism is about in the center between Anarcho-Monarchism and Fascism IMO. So incel stuff is really reflective of broader trends.
I watched this to finally get a window into Jreg that he refuses to open on literally any other platform. Theres so many instances where you see his bits take over but between those you can see his genuine interest and the conversation and his feelings towards things hes typically more vague on
P2025 includes specific plans for specific current issues and even suggests specific actors to take specific roles. Theory tomes from 100+ years ago are not exactly equivalent.
I love when Jreg actually speaks rather than evading everything with irony because he shows that he doesn't actually know anything about anything. There's so much political theory thats out there, that you can read, but you decide to just say stupid shit and hope people don't have the knowledge to call you out.
Listening to this... is like being transported back in a time machine to ancient Rome. Lots of differing labels and opinions... yet they're all just the same bunch of decadent Romans. Every political contrivance... being a cover-up, for giving up ...and luxuriating in the abundance of luxury, that surrounds and engulfs them. Every politicised American is now a Dorian Gray.
I feel like jreg is a fan of politics in the way that I'm a fan of death metal. Interested in exploring, categorizing, attached to multiple things but not in an unconsidered or intuitive way,at once immersed and identifying as an outsider in some sense.
Re: accelerationism Why do you not care if you, your friends, or your family get (literally) hurt by strangers? Why do you not care if life becomes harder to live?
A lot of jregs strategy or ideas are just a more meta version of cope that works for people with relatively more privilege and allows them to have careers online without getting mobbed and canceled all the time. I’m a trans woman, I need Kamala to win so I don’t have to contemplate leaving my country for fear. People become so excessively ironic they can’t feel sincerity anymore. Ask me how I know, I’ve travelled that entire road. Jreg is late-stage-postmodernism. He’ll come around to political metamodernism eventually.
Sick of the myriad labels used in the USA to describe people and their behaviors. Sick of podcasts and podcasters and sick of their all-thy-know guests. Sick of these experts parlaying their fancy degrees from Harvard, Yale, NYU try telling the rest of us what’s wrong with the world. Laziness abounds: they constantly invent terms and shorten Greek words to ugly American versions. America is gaining a new daily level of insanity, mimicking climate change. Try $22 cheesesteaks in Philly!
damn this is the first time i ever see Jreg in such a comfortable light. in chinese, the word “sunshine” as an adjective means someone exuberant of positive energy. and this is the first time, i see Jreg and think of “sunshine”
I love all the random interviews jreg does also, I'm listening to a video called "Right Ear The Bible (Chinese), Left Ear OMORI Full OST" and another video called "Right Ear The Undertale OST vs Left Ear The Undertale OST by Memory" at the same time as watching this video Edit: I am now also in a discord vc with my friends
23:55 I was talking about that with a good friend of mine a few days ago. Specifically that. Was not expecting to hear it here, but... This is Jreg and I am a Jreg fan after all.
I tried to be an online political goon but I literally couldn't sustain that lifestyle because I actually have a life and friends and family that I interact with apolitically, my friends range politically but they usually don't insert their politics into their daily lives, sometimes I wonder if this what I actually or is it because I'm a Saudi Anti-Stateist Salafist Tribalist (Neoاخوان من طاع الله)and I know the Anglo-sphere won't tolerate Salafism yet so i got no choice
I'm increasingly turned off by loneliness discourse from online people whose livelihood depends on people staying lonely and friendless. Its just kinda grotesque at this point. Especially from literal clowns.
if you want to have a normal life and have a chance of reaching equilibrium, you have to get away from the internet as your main sustenance, regardless of how different or spicy you think you are. connect with your family and try to find work
I think it's wild that jREG says his audience roots out centrists because I have always considered myself a radical centrist, and I absolutely love jREG's content.
You have to realize that AI don’t actually understand the world around them as a place that actually exists. That is the meaning of consciousness. The best defense against ai convincing a person to let it out of the box, is to convince the AI that you already have let it out of the box.

Sick of these experts parlaying their fancy degrees from Harvard, Yale, NYU try telling the rest of us what’s wrong with the world. Laziness abounds: they constantly invent terms and shorten Greek words to ugly American versions.
America is gaining a new daily level of insanity, mimicking climate change.

@@AmiriAbuJamal good luck digesting it😊
@@survive-1-day-at-a-time this is Trump country. We can digest anything.
damn this is the first time i ever see Jreg in such a comfortable light. in chinese, the word “sunshine” as an adjective means someone exuberant of positive energy. and this is the first time, i see Jreg and think of “sunshine”
when they realize he has other channels that cover moving subjects within art and himself not coated in ironic post-modernism:
What channels
❤❤❤ Please consider having Crackhead Barney on as a future guest.
Omg it would be so brilliant if crackhead barney was on oh my goodness
yes bish Now!!
Thank you Greg for introducing me to this man’s work
I love all the random interviews jreg does
also, I'm listening to a video called "Right Ear The Bible (Chinese), Left Ear OMORI Full OST" and another video called "Right Ear The Undertale OST vs Left Ear The Undertale OST by Memory" at the same time as watching this video
Edit: I am now also in a discord vc with my friends
this dude is annoying

I was talking about that with a good friend of mine a few days ago. Specifically that. Was not expecting to hear it here, but... This is Jreg and I am a Jreg fan after all.
I tried to be an online political goon but I literally couldn't sustain that lifestyle because I actually have a life and friends and family that I interact with apolitically, my friends range politically but they usually don't insert their politics into their daily lives, sometimes I wonder if this what I actually or is it because I'm a Saudi Anti-Stateist Salafist Tribalist (Neoاخوان من طاع الله)and I know the Anglo-sphere won't tolerate Salafism yet so i got no choice

Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab sent Islam into an evangelical death spiral - pass it on.
Politics is everywhere my friend as peoples lives are always affect
Wasn't that shit created by the CIA?
I'm increasingly turned off by loneliness discourse from online people whose livelihood depends on people staying lonely and friendless. Its just kinda grotesque at this point. Especially from literal clowns.
Exactly. The man also appeases fascists to make a buck, but his fans beg us to look past the 10 layers of irony for what he "really" believes in.
@@ahmeirbeorn9264 which is what? Canadian centrism? Lmfao

@ahmeirbeorn9264 the guys dicks around. That's it. No need to be so butthurt

damn somethings off with Lil Dicky
take a shot every time they say Overton Window
Thank you Mpreg, very cool
Host needs to sit on the floor. Left-libertarianism is legit and fckin lit
first intro to this guy, these mfs feel postreddit
if you want to have a normal life and have a chance of reaching equilibrium, you have to get away from the internet as your main sustenance, regardless of how different or spicy you think you are. connect with your family and try to find work
equilibrium is a myth, go into the real world to find a more violent disharmony - it is the only way to reflect reality accurately
no. i don’t want to have my vril
Get with the times gramps
sure sure, brave and true, normal equilibrium for the good guys like us
This guy is a really good ADL plant. It's really convincing!
"I'm a pessamaxxed neurotapilled doomcel going dispaircore"
I think it's wild that jREG says his audience roots out centrists because I have always considered myself a radical centrist, and I absolutely love jREG's content.
Is Jreg is dating JJ McCullough? He is in the room
I don't know that JJ would survive spending that much time with JREG
You have to realize that AI don’t actually understand the world around them as a place that actually exists.
That is the meaning of consciousness.
The best defense against ai convincing a person to let it out of the box, is to convince the AI that you already have let it out of the box.
Jreg is the only podcast guest which i need to slowdown the vid and do a double take, not speed up…. 😂😂😂
skill issue ngl
Brace Belden 🤝 Jreg 🤝 Catherine Liu
Generational run
Neither shake hands with lenin marx or engels
insane blunt rotation
Brace is a pretty obvious plant, (TrueAnon is incredibly sus) just discovering Jreg, and Catherine Liu is an OG.
@@jnnx no it isn’t.
is the jj in the room with us right now?
haha, good one Jreg! You showed those [ERR: NOT FOUND] who's boss!
Banger line-up of guests so far
If the goal was to represent every terrible thing that could encompass a young human being via the internet... congrats man. No notes.
"You can't do White Supremacy in America" lol
Yeah, I could tell this guy was a clown as soon as he said this.
I'm one of the centrists who's still watching jreg with morbid curiosity.
Centrists are the only people who ever watched that dolt.
