There is an extensive gaslighting operation on the subject of the culture war.

By way of context, broadly speaking, the "culture war" refers to a series of political and philosophical disputes about a number of interrelated cultural issues. /1

At their core, these disputes can be summed up as a struggle to determine the relationship between subjective feelings and reality.

For example, we all know that men can't get pregnant or have periods but since this is uncomfortable for.../2

...some transmen to hear (because it suggests they aren't real men) we fight over how to best accommodate their feelings while retaining an understanding of basic biology.

We all know that discrimination is bad, which is how we know that applying it in reverse is also bad.../3

While we argue about what a woman is and whether 2+2 still = 4, the reality is there are far more powerful tectonic processes afoot.

Western civilization is old and it is tired. It hasn't seemed that way because the main torchbearer of WC is the US, a young country, but...

...as a civilization we are exhausted. (That's one of the reasons that in the rest of the West we begrudgingly admire the American spirit - it represents the best of what we used to be: daring, confident, industrious).

Have you ever known a man who was super talented at 30...

...built something important by 50 and then retired at 65? He used to be disciplined, driven, powerful. Now he just wants to play with his grandchildren and indulge their every whim.

That's us.

Our great empires have been and gone. Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, Holland...

Lots of new followers so it might be helpful to tell you a bit about me + debunk myths:

I'm a comedian and social commentator. I co-host a show (@triggerpod) where we interview people about various issues, esp culture war.

I write for the Telegraph, Spectator and Quillette.1/5

I was born in the Soviet Union. Most of my family were persecuted there for having the wrong views or speaking out. I care about free speech because I know what it's like not to have it. 2/5

@triggerpod

I have always been interested in economics, politics and history. I studied these subjects at university. Our interviews on @triggerpod is how I continue to educate myself on these issues. 3/5

You're going to hate me for writing this. You're going to resist what I say because you don't want it to be true. You're going to pretend that I want this to be true when, in fact, there is nothing I hate more than the fact that is has come to this.

Here is what happens next:

If protestors continue to deface monuments like Winston Churchill's statue and burn British flags on the Cenotaph, you will see groups forming to defend them. These groups will be composed primarily of young, angry white men and led by people with links to groups like the EDL and

...Tommy Robinson. This is already happening.

The groups will gather in city centres to "defend our country". They will have names with words like "patriotic", "British", "defence" in them.

Inevitably, they will clash with the current protestors and the police. Under pressure

3 years ago I remember watching Rubin Report interviews about where our politics was going wrong. As my thinking evolved, I became more and more isolated in the super woke comedy industry I was part of. /Thread

I was starting to lose bookings for saying things like "maybe obesity IS bad for your health" or "maybe we should go back to MLK's idea of judging people on how they behave, not what they look like".

Day by day, as I became clearer and more honest about what I thought, I became more and more "problematic". Naively, I thought "Being clear about what you think is good. Now we can discuss and debate and all learn something from each other!" Honestly, I was that stupid.
