    #180 - Kasimir Urbanski - RPG Pundit - Final Boss in Internet Shitlords - Culture War Madness

    #180 - Kasimir Urbanski - RPG Pundit - Final Boss in Internet Shitlords - Culture War Madness
    RPG Pundit joins us for a great chat about the woke takeover of culture, diversity consultants, inclusivity reviews, woke corporations like HASBRO, Tabletop Roll Playing Games, liberal gamers, before the current culture war, and the Panderverse.
     
    We chat about his interests in history, authentic medieval research, old school gaming and the revival, how he got to 5e, the outcast hero's and the corruption of the Hero's Journey, anti-western, and are Wizards of the Coast, and Hasbro gonna make it or collapse. Why are they against individual power?
     
    Should we get rid of the following words in gaming, fiction, and story telling; Mad, Madness, Insane, Tribal, Crazy, Civilized, Dark Elves, Dim-witted, Simple Creatures, Half-breed Offspring, Raving Lunatics, Primitive, Hordes of Orcs, Slavery, Savage, Barbarians, Fat, Dark, even when describing horror, monsters, and great evils. Have they jumped the shark.
     
    In the second half we get into the Satanic Panic, and the difference between that and the modern woke cancel culture, how far back some of these changes in D&D/culture go, the long march, the mechanism of Marxism, in the Universities, movies, media, and gaming.
     
    We talk about his game design based on authentic history from India and medieval times, totalitarianism, satanic imagery, secret societies of wizards, the Black Lodge - in name only, real magical grimoires, Lovecraft and Cthulhu, ritual magic, SJW's, materialism and atheism in gaming.
     
    The Culture war revolution can never go back. What is happening on both sides of the Israel conflict with wokeness and support from Government, Media and Institutions?
    "All of human history has been an occult war between those who would dominate humanity, and those who would liberate it. This war is still going on, hidden in plain sight."

    Ep. 12: Band Of Brothers

    Ep. 12: Band Of Brothers

    “Are you living for purpose or for pleasure?” - Nick Koumalatsos

    “The only condition necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to stand by and do nothing.” - Edmond Burke

     

    There have always been brotherhoods. The world is not a soft place. We need the strength of other men to help us rise up to the challenge. Fear kills the warrior or the warrior kills the fear. With the right men in your life, you’ll find the courage to face your fears, be the best that you can be, and help make our world the best that it can be. Unfortunately the vast majority of men don’t have the support of other men.

     

    In this episode, you’ll learn…

    • Examples of brotherhoods and their role in history.
    • The consequence of going it alone.
    • How to find your own brotherhood.

    #446 - Industrial Society and Its Future

    #446 - Industrial Society and Its Future
    This is an audio reading of “Industrial Society and It’s Future”. This was written by Ted Kaczynski in the early 90’s and was published in 1995.
     
    Intro:  
      The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the
       human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us
       who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have
       made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led
       to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical
       suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The
       continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will
       certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater
       damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social
       disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical
       suffering even in “advanced” countries.

    The Tiananmen Square Massacre of 1989, a fractured childhood with memory loss, and recovering from the trauma of immigration.

    Blizzard in Midsummer China; No more credit card for HK officials; Xi's Marxism

    In Gansu Province, the floods reached three stories high, and the wooden homes of many villagers collapsed. The province is among the hardest hit by the floods along the Yangtze River, which is already seeing a fifth wave of the floods, despite the fourth wave still not being over.

    Meanwhile, the chairman of the China Banking Regulatory Commission, Guo Shuqing, is warning of a potential global financial crisis and is blaming the United States for impacting the US dollar through a Federal Reserve stimulus, and for blacklisting Chinese companies and entities.

    And in a recent article, Xi Jinping, the head of the communist party in China, said “The foundation of China’s political economy can only be a Marxist political economy, and not be based on other economic theories.

    Grammar is Racist and the Current Cultural Revolution

    Grammar is Racist and the Current Cultural Revolution

    The loons are at it again, this time declaring grammar is racist. The English Department at Rutgers University has declared that proper English grammar is racist, and they will change its standards of English instruction in an effort to “stand with and respond” to the Black Lives Matter organization. Silly me, and I always thought academic institutions were a place for educating students. Professor Giordano discusses the failures of academic institutions, and he also explores the current Cultural Revolution gripping America. The “Woke” Cultural Revolution is eerily similar to Mao’s Cultural Revolution. As America is under siege, the news media continues to lie and distort the truth.

    It is Professor Giordano’s passion that led him to start The P.A.S. Report. Sick of an activist news media that wants to dictate how to think, Professor Giordano started The P.A.S. Report because of his unique ability to breakdown complex political issues and explain those issues in a way to appeal to everyday Americans. By introducing facts, a conservative perspective, and quality analysis, the listeners can come to their own conclusions.

    The Tiananmen Square Massacre: From China's Authoritarian Roots to the Iconic "Tank Man"

    The Tiananmen Square Massacre: From China's Authoritarian Roots to the Iconic "Tank Man"
    On this episode of the Resistance Library Podcast Dan and Sam discuss the iconic “Tank Man” and the Tiananmen Square Massacre as well as the recent Hong Kong protests.
     
    China is often described as the next superpower to top America within the next few decades. At first glance, such an assertion makes sense. The country’s vast geography, natural resources, rich history, and tech-savvy populace puts it in a position to thrive in the 21st century. However, China’s rise as a superpower is not one of an overnight success, nor is it filled with pretty rainbows.
     
    Indeed, China is one of the world’s longest lasting civilizations, with cultural and political traditions that have been passed down to succeeding generations effortlessly. With such a vast history, China had gone through its own zeniths and nadirs. As is the nature of any civilization. However, China’s modern history has been a rollercoaster ride to say the least.
     
    Despite having a massive formal governing apparatus that would put many empires to shame, China has not always had full control of its territorial jurisdiction. Once European powers reached Chinese shores in search of riches, they soon wanted their piece of pie. That meant slowly whittling away at Chinese territory. As the first movers in the Age of Exploration, the Portuguese and their missionaries colonized Macau.
     
    Although the Portuguese’s venture was not exclusively about riches, it inspired other European actors such as the British to go and exploit China’s vast resources. Naturally, the Qing dynasty and Britain’s interests clashed once the British wanted to expand trade inside the country. What was originally a trade dispute between a Qing government wanting to maintain trade that overwhelmingly favored China, soon turned into a full-blown conflict as seen in the Opium War.
     
    China was handed a humiliating defeat, which saw it turn over Hong Kong to the British. This marked a turning point in Chinese history. The once mighty country slowly deteriorated both internally and externally. China soon became a punching bag for smaller, yet more militarily advanced countries that started setting up trading outposts in Shanghai. Indeed, these moves were not welcome by the Chinese and many in the Qing court, but due to the country’s decaying institutions, it could do nothing to prevent further predations.
     
    Even empires on the Western periphery, like Imperial Russia, started to prey on China when it annexed all of the Chinese land north of the Amur River in 1858, exploiting Chinese weakness along a border that was, at the time, 4,650 miles long. As if China’s foreign reversals weren’t enough, Imperial Japan also jumped in the mix and picked apart China like other European powers. Japan put the world on notice when it crushed China in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894. 
     
    As a result of this humiliation, Japan added the island of modern-day Taiwan, the Liaodong Peninsula, and the Korean peninsula into its sphere of influence. Japan’s exploitation of its weaker mainland rival did not stop there.
     
    Even after the Qing dynasty collapsed, nationalist leader Chiang Kai-Shek tried to put the political pieces back together during the 1920s, in an attempt to unify the country and restore Chinese greatness. However, Imperial Japan was ready to humiliate China yet again, when it invaded Manchuria in 1931, and occupied it until 1945, in an attempt to expand their industrialization efforts.
     
    All in all, the mid-19th century up until the mid-20th century was a rocky period. It took game-changing events after World War II for China to finally get its political house in order and build itself up on its own terms.

    CCP Using Conflicts To Shift Domestic Problems; National Security Law Passed,HK in Crisis

    During a recent border conflict, Chinese soldiers killed 20 Indian soldiers, and Chinese authorities have not been open about casualties on their end. The incident is speeding up India’s existing push to decouple from China. At the same time, China has been stirring up other conflicts such as with Taiwan and Japan, locally, and with many other countries through its policy of “wolf warrior diplomacy” around the world.

    Yet, in all cases the heavy-handed approach of China seems to be having an opposite result, and many countries are talking about distancing further from China. So why would Chinese authorities push a more aggressive stance at this time? We look into this question.

    And war correspondent Michael Yon, who covered the Hong Kong protests and was later forbidden from returning to report, speaks with Crossroads about the situation in Hong Kong with the new measures to extend Beijing rule.
