1). I agree that the physicalist and mythemic models are orthogonal. They intersect at the truth, and while we can map accordingly, good luck getting to the center of that Tootsie Pop in three licks.

2). The Gilead Insurgency is a well-documented S&M artifact, as is the Pink Pussy Hat Brigades, the Mater Paraphilias of YA fiction, and basically anything written by an art critic, opinion journalist or bureaucratic turd-herder in the past forty-seven years.

3) The Sahuagin vs Mermaid problem was resolved by a guy named Ben Franklin long ago. It's just a matter of age.

4). I'm still only halfway through this beautiful madness. More later.

John, You know I love your stuff. But I will never have 82 minutes to listen to this and other visual types will not, either. (Yes, I don't watch TV, either.) As I have urged many sites (and most have seen the light) I hope you will pass this through an auto-transcriber so the rest of us can see what all the excitement is about. They are free/near free and, while not perfect, are plenty close enough to get the idea virtually all of the time. Us visual learners would surely appreciate it.

I listened to this while I watered plants at big box behemoth. I knew I was in for a ride right off, when John called Luc a halfbreed. It only got better after that. Lucky only the plants heard me laughing out loud the several times I did. Most fun I've had listening to a podcast in a long while.

Brilliant stuff!!!!! The insight on THE HANDMAID'S TALE as a rape fantasy establishes Martian Wonderland as one of the essential podcasts...it is definitely up there with Caribbean Rhythms.

Re Tonic Masculinity itself, I'd suggest that the intellectual martial art of formal logic needs to be included in the underground curriculum of resistance.

You made a very good point about the European ethnonats identifying the managerial state as the enemy and an even better ones on the use of diversity hires as flak-catchers for the system and America as an imperial regime.

I saw Philosophy Cat on the Jolly Heretic's YouTube channel. Y'all like the Jolly Heretic? He's a hoot but I get a little nerve-wracked listening to him. Like Russell Brand. 10 min. in I start feeling breathless from the speed of their speech.

Now, for some esoterica - Vardis Fisher: a writer best known for his popular historical novels of the Old West. The Mountain Man (Jeremiah Johnson was based on this novel and The Mothers, a novel about the Donner Party) From Goodreads: "He wrote the monumental 12-volume Testament of Man (1943–1960) series of novels, depicting the history of humans from cave to civilization. It was considered controversial because of his portrayal of religion, especially the Judeo-Christian tradition, emphasis on sexuality, and conclusions about anthropology." I promise, his works won't lower your testosterone levels. The paperback covers alone, with lurid romance novel depictions of women, pretty much speak to the time period when these novels were published. I read the Testament series when I was about 15. Probably above my age-grade but man, did those books influence me to read stuff I probably shouldn't have laid eyes on until I was at least an adult. No fish-f-king though.

I agree with your theory on frigid leftist women's hatred of DJT.

It is heroic to ultimately die for the cause if doing so furthers the cause.

Enjoyed the conversation - sorta felt like I was eves dropping on a couple of guys shooting the breeze a la' stream of consciousness. Kept me up a half hour past my bedtime🥱

Hmm the ethnic question is not popular with your friend eh John? I understand. But these new people that populate the west are not guests, as he says. Just because a self destructive segment of society invited them does not give them this status. They are owed no privileges, nor have they given us any in their nations.

Bob Whitaker had some good common sense thoughts on all this.
