Pt 2 Refuting New/Old Dirt: Civilizational Issues, PsyOPs, Church & Nation & Discussions
Summary
Jay argues that the Russian Church’s official statement on church and nation validates ethnic identity and patriotism, contradicting modern "boomer" clergy who deny the relevance of ethnos. He cites historical saints and the McCarran-Walter Act to refute claims that ethnicity is a modern construct, asserting that denying national identity is a Gnostic error. The episode also covers the history of Freemasonry, the role of the state in protecting the church, and the practical use of Bitcoin for off-grid living.
