Serious talk, Dan would lose days of time if he ever found out about The Culture. I doubt he’d be too into the actual books, but as a model of a civilization and a philosophical concept he couldn’t resist. So if for some reason we ever wanted to gently caress up the research schedule for the podcast, mail Dan a copy of The Player of Games.

Can you imagine Alex Jones not-reading the books and talking at length about the Globalist Conspiracy detailing its plans in them? Imagine how wrong he would be about everything.

I think he'd get it right about 95 or 98% and anything he didn't get right he would apologize for.

There are so many sci fi things I want to make that garbage troll digest and summarize back to me. I wanna see Alex’s interpretation of China Mieville. Bet you he somehow thinks it’s pro capitalism.

Unironically have to remind myself of this when I think about following bitcoin for laughs when it was between $10 and $30. I didn't buy any because I didn't trust Mt. Gox with my bank information which was probably a good idea. And that I 100% would have sold at $100 a piece and just ended up with more regret. Still stings though.

He would have a field day about the government morphing people for human trafficking/the creepy brothel and that the brothel blackmail scheme was broadcasting it all to the world as part of their globalist pact with the devil, and then just ignore literally everything else  .

What kind of broken individual do you have to be to listen to these idiots sit around spouting off high-deas about magic and their super psychic grandmothers and by the way it's all the trans Jewish antifa people's fault somebody should kill them. I mean god [b]drat[/i], it just makes no sense. With Coast to Coast AM stoners and truckers at 3 AM could just listen to goofy poo poo but nope Alex has to be a hateful fascist gently caress.

The OG Nazis had a lot of crazy mysticism and ancestral magic too. Also that "useless eaters" comment from Pim Tool is like a direct Nazi quote/ideology and he also had Kanye on, spouting more Nazi poo poo with probably less pushback than Jones even.

Yeah that one was super loving bonkers to be hearing in the wild. That poo poo was being trumpeted from the bad guys and brain washing a teenager in to suicide in Man In The High Castle but here's home boy just casually saying "Yeah everyone I don't like politically is a useless eater. We should maybe do something about that. Ya'know, for the kids."

The conservative brain is a pre-Modern brain. Occultism is just part of their lived experience. They see intent and agency in everything (except women).

These people live in a vividly unseen world full of signs and portents, where it be from the Devil, Jesus, or a dead psychic granny. The world is intensely magical for the pre-Modern mind.

I guess it was too nerdy even for Jordan but "If we get human population down to 10 each of those ten people will become wizard-kings of the new world" was the villan's plot in the amazing but underseen 12 Monkeys tv series

In one sense, Jones isn’t really that religious. He’s constantly getting Bible stories wrong and if you let him talk for long enough it turns out that he thinks everything is just really advanced/obscure science. It’s all electromagnetism or extra dimensions.

Christianity is just an aesthetic choice for them because actually holding themselves up to those ideals would mean forcing white men to live a certain way, and that's what everyone else gets

Christianity is a tribal signifier for the far right. It's a way to identify ingroups and outgroups.

Weird that Dan doesn’t really seem to know what “head of state” means. Less weird that Jordan thinks it’s the same thing as the us Secretary of State.

Was he axed? Or did he quit? I'm seeing conflicting reports, though I'm inclined to believe he was fired simply because no other major network is going to take him and none of the minor networks like OAN that might take him could offer him nearly as much money or viewership, and he knows it. It'll be interesting to see where he ends up after this due to that. Actually, weren't Dan and Jordan talking about some shithead podcast host recently in a similar bind? He'd gotten fired after releasing audio of a call about contract negotiations or something? Where'd that chucklefuck end up?

Honestly I didn't really think of the granular difference between PM and President vis a vis "Head of State." I'm sure I learned it in poli sci at some point, but lol at caring about very specific titles or assuming that the quack doctor lady would know or care.
