S2E14: Haitian Crusaders w/ Matt Marino

Cody, Michael, & returning guest, Matt Marino, engage in discussion on two chief topics: the dynamics of immigration and the metaphysics of historiography. Inspired by Matt's two articles: Who is the Sojourner? and The Lost Tools of Learning from History.

Highlights:

  • Sojourner—defined and abused.
  • Is America being deliberately destroyed through illegals?
  • Abuses of Scripture to justify demographic warfare.
  • Can we love humanity in general?
  • Who is a neighbor?—can Wolfgang Musculus help us here?
  • The imago Dei and immigration.
  • How is our compassion exploited?
  • Is the government required by God's law to remove illegals?
  • Who is a native? Is C. Jay Engel's "Heritage American" helpful? Can Aristotle help? What place does race play? Culture?
  • The "Anglo-Saxon supremacy" demanded by the VA Senate in 1905 + the NC and SC demands of immigrants of Celtic, Teutonic, and Saxon origins.
  • Is America facing an identity crisis?
  • Has the 1965 Hart-Celler Act radically redefined America?
  • The failure of Blacks to assimilate into White America—real, important?
  • Discussing race & politics without lighting our hair on fire.
  • The reality of race as expressed in voting patterns.
  • Hostiles vs. Hospitables.
  • If the "immigrants" are in need, why are they all military-aged males?
  • Natural law—does it require distinct nations and borders?
  • The place of voting in these things.
  • Political liars and gaslighters.
  • Is the invasion of illegals a judgment of God?
  • Gideon & Samson as lesser saviors of God's people while God was yet judging his people.
  • The prophets on strangers as a judgment.
  • Passivity and pacifism—besetting sins of our age and church?
  • Is it a matter of natural law to defend your own people and place, even using violence if need be?
  • How John Piper & James White fail here.
  • Metaphysical thinking and the Crusades, the Civil War, and WW2.
  • What place should the Civil War have in our thinking today?
  • The South as one of the last holdouts of Christian orthodoxy; as a real opponent against egalitarianism, including upholding slavery; and as upholding racial superiority and inferiority.
  • Are things that are not the gospel important?
  • "Not the gospel" is deployed against political interests.
  • Apolitical posture—idolatry?
  • The punch right, kiss left spirit.
  • Should "metaphysical thinking" be applied to WW2?
  • The failure of piecemeal facts vs. the narrative.
  • The place of shotgun facts in destroying the narrative.
  • Proxy battles vs. substance, e.g. Romanists vs Protestants, the Crusades, etc.
  • Can a syllogism convert the masses?
  • The place of vibes and memes in sociopolitical renewal.
  • The Holodomor, 10M Germans starved, Adolf Hitler & Christianity.
  • Righteous deconstruction.
  • Stephen Wolfe as a brilliant Twitter troll.
  • Historiography as self-loathing and damning heroes.
  • Dabney & Secession; Crusades & the present invasion of the West by Islam.
  • The difference between how Crusades may have been used by Romanists in the past vs. how they are abused today against us.
  • Responding effectively to the shibboleths and struggle sessions of words like racist, Nazi, white supremacist, and events like WW2, the Civil War, and Civil Rights.
  • The danger of friendly fire & undue fear.
  • Do not play the disavowal game.
  • Purity spiraling & the failure of the Right to unite against a common enemy.
  • Struggle sessions as opportunity for victory.
  • The rationality of becoming white supremacist.
