BAP is indeed a controversial figure in modern philosophy. Yet man speaking here did not provide any counterarguments to his position. In contrary, even his take on "reason did not achieve anything valuable" that supposedly would win an applause at Ivy league is precisely what BAP is taking about, a cyclical argument of sorts. I would not go as far as claiming that BAP is a revolutionary philosopher, but his work is realy groundbreaking or, as i would like it be, icebreaking - shaking and movind modern mainstream philosophical consensus. And if we go as far to believe that Costin Alamariu and BAP is the same person, his next work "Selevtive Breeding..." more than proves the point Thanks for a recap on a Bronze Age Mindset

""....one of the reasons why I will never get a job at another university...." this statement really upsets me especially so when considering the uch wider values and beliefs. Pity, real pity.

Nobody is talking on this. Progressivism vs Prejudice - which is which?

Well done, Dr Doyle. Do you think that if the republican authorities had known how unorthodox Milton's views on the Trinity were he would have been persecuted?

Great talk...until the very end when it suddenly turns into a pep talk. Lean in to the filth, my dude.

This is great! Weeee luuuuv BAP <3

Long live Kazinski

Reminds me of a letter to the evil king of Athens

We do a little shitposting

Yes, filipinos are the mexicans of Asia. Btw... Post physique!

We free range humans just don't have a great track record at predicting or forecasting the future. We're just not evolutionarily adapted to do so, BECAUSE for 99% of Hominid Fire-Ape Mammalian Primate Sapiens Callidus Economicus Optimal Forager human creatures history, IT wasn't a thing, not a priority.

Εξαιρετικος!

In BAPs defense as well as Friedrich’s the imposition is that the Conqueror’s actions are spontaneous so whether for the sake of another or for himself it’s not a matter of reason it’s a matter of animalism.

After listening through it all I am forced to demand by reason a reason why we should embrace reason. I demand an explanation as to why a future in which we embrace our self professed agency means a better future. I demand it and reason demands it.

Is my guy doing sazmidat here? Hmmmm?

He holds the book like it’s the Bible lol a buuk of powa

That fallen statue in the background looks like a man ready to rise again

lol what a wordslop

"turns out, he's not a basement-dweller" *audience chuckles*

This failed to be a compelling rebuttal to the ideas presented in Bronze Age mindset

I think this lecture was meant to dissuade me from the BAP way. It didn’t work. And like… wrapping your thesis around what happened in Apocalypse Now… this is peak midwit. Kudos to the lecturer. Bro… join us. You can easily belong. We will need many midwit (non-lesbian) commissars.

WE HAVE A NEW PM.....HE IS CALLED MATT GOODWIN

Ralf is always fascinating to listen too, I hope he does more content.

Wasn't there a lecture on Postmodernism posted the ARI page? Was that removed?

Great stuff!

Yawn. It's the Democrats who are anti-democracy. Every ounce of their behavior backs it. I checked Amazon. The book sold around 2,500 copies. It's hardly a movement. As a conservative, I've never heard of it. Why do people waste their brains listening to a criticism of, from reading the Amazon summary, tongue-in-cheek camp.

Is this the same talk as the other BAP one?

Love it how “private companies” like YT deletes merely funny comments, rejecting the spirit of free speech these “free market” groups advocate for but it’s never people with this ideology who own private platforms like YT. Why is that?

Is this sotire?

Brilliant analysis. Explains Trump and all the Colonel Kurtz-type swamp animals now coming out of the woodwork around the world and trying to send us back to ignorance, barbarism, and hell-on-earth.

Once again another 'academic critique' of BAM that resorts to the usual strawmaning and dishonestly stupid/simple reductive interpretation. lol.

please fix your hunched posture if you are going to talk about bronze age mindset

The idea of the "mulatto lesbians" should not be taken as a joke. In modern Western media (films, TV, etc.) there are NO depictions of feminine, gentle, maternal black characters. All of them are cold assassins and mercenary types.

Insightful talk by Nikos. I would also recommend the work by c bradley thompson on BAP, and Nikos' other talk on conservatism as counterculture.

Excellent speech.

this is complete nonsense

Great speech Matthew hope your words sink in to many many people. Regards sir.

This is SUCH a good talk. It's full of statistical, scholarly support for the premises presented and it thoroughly deserves to be widely disseminated.

So incoherent

When you enumerate the characteristics of the 'new elite' you neglect what is probably the most important constituent demographic which is WOMEN. No one seems to be able to offer or even perceive the importance of the lack of an explanation of what underpinned the RISE of the 'new elite'. Yes, they are highly educated, professional group but what is by far the most outstanding change in the makeup of the 'intelligencia'? It is their SEX.

if she wants to be authoritative, the woman lecturer needs to understand the world Roth was moving in... that means pronouncing the names and places properly. Just ignorant, and just passes those mistakes on!

The irony is we push so hard for diversity in ethnic and cultural groups yet the elites want no diversity of thought!! Surely this is a special kind of hypocrisy that only the elite seem to get away with!!

I want to progress to stability and continuity. Ralph's question is intriguing.

For academic people I'm surprised that you think that your title is an accurate use of English. "The New Elite" is singular, not plural. There is no working class anymore. There is only the super rich, the wannabe rich and the underclass. The so called working class sold their souls and pissed away their credibility when they voted for the Tories and Brexit.

Matt what you fail to mention is the rise of atheism the daemonic and Islam.

Australia got the same result in ‘the voice to parliament’ referendum. Yes in all the city centres. No in regional. There are heat maps you can see the results.

I really enjoyed this talk and it inspired me to read The Radetzky March. Mrs Lewis (did you see what I did there?) explains brilliantly why it's so relevant to today. It helps me see that the passionate divisions that are emerging are not conflicts between right and wrong, but attachments to old and new ideas about how society should operate. It's not just the collapse of the British Empire we're coming to terms with, now it's the end of America as the cornerstone of our culture, security and political authority. I grew up with Russian Communism being the enemy, the NHS being a good thing, our institutions being the envy of the world. It seems we all take our own time to realise that what was, is no longer. And like the Trottas we act out these dramas in our own lives.

And that's why we're heading towards the S-Bend

How is progressive actually progressive when it’s in reality regressive?
