love this series, I personally love the veering points, shits real, it’s like hanging with your people and thoughts start flying lol!enjoy the ricochet, Thomas really has been the lighthouse putting Yockeys writings into the appropriate historical context and the conceptual application of his ideas.
I’m personally in debt to Pete and Thomas, for bringing Yockey to awareness many years ago, which most definitely helped me switch to some higher gears when thinking about and accessing the developing historical present…and Stormy never disappoints, such the noble savage lol
It was a sobering discussion especially towards the end, but I definitely appreciate the honest opinions.
I’ve been reading Archeofuturism, and seems like Faye’s concept of Eurosiberia dovetails with Yockey’s idea that Russia might reinvigorate European identity/culture (at least on the surface).
Russia doesn’t seem to be able to project power well. They MIGHT hold on to Tartus after their client state collapsed and is going to be squabbled over by proxies. You can’t say they’re dominating in Ukraine. If the U.S. were to be bogged down in a neighboring country militarily, people would be laughing their asses off at them. Russia’s biggest success has come from Wagner, which won’t be the same after they killed Prigozhin. It’s hard to be bullish on Russia’s military capability unless you haven’t been paying attention.
Thanks so much man. Geopolitics isn’t my wheelhouse at all. I don’t really think yockey was right, I don’t think it will play out the way he wanted I think he was being too optimistic and cooked up the only way Europe COULD survive. Even if he is right it’s still another 50 years off at best. He was also trying to find a way to make Spengler correct about the future of Russia as the next great civilization.
I’m gonna have to finish up Imperium soon. The past few episodes motivated me to pick it back up. I’m in the same boat as you though, I’m not sure if Europe can save itself at this point. Best thing the U.S. could do is leave them to sort out their own issues.
I explained how it would happen more on the paid supplement episode. I mentioned it here. It would happen through European reliance on Russian natural resources, in which case they’d be more dependent on Russia and not need us as much. But this would only happen if the European banking cartel loses power, which would only happen if the dollar is tied to gold and more difficult to borrow, which is where stormy comes in. It wouldn’t happen the way Yockey predicted, which was a Russian victory in WW3. I think I say that in the episode
Only about 30 minutes into the episode while I’m making dinner. You did mention it in the supplemental and I agree. I’m mostly commenting on Thomas’ bit in the beginning. I remember listening to Pete’s podcast where Thomas was assuring everyone the Assad regime would hold and Russia would maintain their influence in Syria. About 4 days later the government collapsed, Assad was on a plane to Russia and Russia was rapidly getting military equipment out of the country. Not trying to be argumentative but I really don’t see how someone can maintain that Russia can project power, even regionally
I don’t know enough about it but I’ve seen the math that shows Ukraine cannot win a war of attrition against Russia. The real issue is whether American control and the European banking cartel will back off a little on the EU and Russia moves in economically, which then serves as a further deterrent to US military presence in Europe. If everything Trump says is true and we draw down our forces there and pull financially out of NATO, Russia can move in in regional influence culturally and economically etc. none of this requires Russian projection of military force
Agreed. No way Ukraine can win. It’s looking like the U.S. is going to get a slice of the pie and siphon some money out of Ukraine for “rebuilding” their country IF Trump can actually negotiate an end to the war. I’m not too optimistic though. That would require large concessions by both Ukraine and Russia. If we do actually get out of NATO (which we should and which might be the only way to get Russia to agree to a ceasefire), I’m not sure Europe would stop being belligerent towards Russia. Who knows man, I won’t pretend to be an expert but it’s gonna be shit show either way. Thank you guys again for the content. I’ve been listening to both you and Pete for years now
This was 🔥, especially directly after Tom Luongo most recent episode and Kingpilled with Jason Mironchuck…some intense convergence.
I really don’t think “white” identity is the thing. As much as I believe it is this Anglo-Germanic spirit that built this country and have driven the zeitgeist forward, “white” as a concept is tainted and flawed:
1. It accepts the enemies framing (POC vs White dichotomy)
2. It really is not definable and those massive edge cases (mixed race people, iranians?, Jews? Richard hanania?) will blow apart any coalition.
3. Many whites are fucking horrible. Whites invented shitlibbery and the GNC. they are the enemy.
4. Many non-whites are almost 100% westernized and Americanized and they are good allies!
No one is 100% in line with anyone else’s lifestyle or beliefs, so we take the most aligned and go with it. Right now we have MAGA and America. We are riding the dragon and we do our best to guide it to the American culture we want or can live with. So I’ve gone all in on American identity and yes it’s a bundle of abstract, arbitrary ideas and historical narratives, but it’s the best we have.
so we go from yockey > russia > netanyahu > syria > stormy dropping f bombs > nuland appelbaum love fest > thomas raise up > nikki haley > trump assassination.
if someone can weave this back to yockey i’ll be very impressed
These episodes are my favorite things on the internet right now (legitimately) and yourself and the boys are much smarter than I am, but I personally think it's strange that the group is not convinced that America is starting to form along racial lines. The only thing stopping the wave, it seems to me, are boomers who can't let go of their influence. I live in a small town and have numerous friends who personally talk to me about the JQ and even Gen X people I know are not really opposed to this line of questioning. What else can they do when the gigantic mass of real Americans want their country back? The whole regime is entirely reliant on social engineering through mass media. I'm not a populist or anything, but that can't possibly persist anymore with this level of resistance. We may not be a global empire anymore with limitless power and resources, but we will be a real country for the first time in probably 100 years.
You guys say something needs to arise organically that will unite the right, mention what it is absentmindedly, make a joke about it, and then move on. I wonder what it is? It's exploded since 2020 and no one can quite grasp why, it united with the third Reich, it's against bagels theologically, it's the backbone of the bagels biggest foe, it actually preaches spiritual warfare as a way of life, it's against immigration and supports nationalism, did I mention a lot of young white men are the back bone of its explosion? That it embodies spiritual and physical fitness? But it's not worth actually looking into, even though Stormy's reality series only makes sense when viewed through the context of Orthodox Christianity. Maybe you guys should stop acting like it's not worth looking into, you might be surprised to find out it explains literally everything because Truth is a person, Christ.

Yeah he is particularly on fire this episode

I see no other way
Will the Inquisition go back to discussing current-ish events? I miss that.
This episode is mostly current events so yea, but we all needed a break

we need imperium merch
Oh yeah shoot I gotta talk to our merch guy thanks for reminding me
maybe like a yockey handcuff x johnny cash giving the finger mash up
imperium prison blues
This is great
You have a merch guy?! Do you have other merch?
so we go from yockey > russia > netanyahu > syria > stormy dropping f bombs > nuland appelbaum love fest > thomas raise up > nikki haley > trump assassination.
if someone can weave this back to yockey i’ll be very impressed
No we veered way off, but more or less everything Thomas said in the first hour is related to Yockey
This is why I’m doing the supplement episodes tho, follow the link in the notes!
not complaining i love it. just hear for the convo the best ones meander

That is happening and we plan to make the next episode about it
Does anyone know where I can find the rare essay Thomas mentioned by Yockey? Searching „In the Year 2000” showed no results
I’ll look into it I think I know the one he means
kind of an abrupt ending.
