Some thoughts:

At 8:38 Richard claims 40 to 50 percent of fortune 500 CEOs are foreign born. That is almost certainly false. This was my analysis of Fortune 100 CEOs:

I think Taylor overstates Chinese American loyalty to China. (20 minute mark). Though to be fair Chinese Americans have a more positive opinion of China than other ethnicities:

Here they talk about race in Southern California:

Richard says that race isn't important except for blacks, but we should look at actual data instead of his feelings on things. All non-white groups have a strong racial identity, and everyone thinks race relations are bad.

Also, there are all sorts of racial politics in Southern CA as this tape revealed: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Los_…

And of course it is worth mentioning that CA would be a swing state without demographic change, white Californians voted for Bush in 04 and Romney.

Minor quip, Richard says there is a Jewish left in Israel but it isn't very big. Well that is an understatement!

At around 34 minutes they talk about Hispanic MAGAs. Jared should have brought up the racial differences within the coalition:

At 35 minutes Richard says that altruism is a strength of whites and the west. Well Richard, what do you expect the west to look like when it isn't run by whites anymore? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Richard also says that whites aren't going to be able to preserve their majority, and it would be like trying to keep Brazil white. Well Richard would Brazil be a positive or negative direction for the US?

Overall I thought there were many times where Hanania wasn't hammered as hard as he should have been...

Another example: Richard claims that people really care about their family and not their race and that is why there are anti nepotism laws, but there are of course anti racism laws as well.

Richard says that people eschew race and culture at the expense of economics but most people don't want to immigrate even if they live in poor areas:

White westerners are one of the few groups in the world that doesn't have to choose between economic prosperity or living around their own people and culture but they are throwing that away...

My thoughts on this:

Taylor should have brought up the fact that NY and NJ were whiter than WV in 1940. Wealth made those places diverse, diversity didn't make them wealthy.

The reason why WV has low human capital now is that EHC moves away from coal producing regions:
