| 0:00.0 | get ready to take a flamethrower to the official narrative and learn what the elites don't want you to know |
| 0:08.3 | you're listening to the tom woods show everybody tom woods here it's episode episode 2751 of the Tom Wood Show. The great Daryl Cooper is with us. |
| 0:23.7 | You know him as host of the Martyr Made podcast and co-host with Scott Horton of the Provoked Podcast, which if you're not listening to that, you should do that after you have exhausted the library of Tom Wood Show episodes, needless to say. |
| 0:36.9 | Darrell has a tremendous substack of which i am one of |
| 0:40.4 | many many many paid subscribers so you know i can talk to darrell about anything in the world you know |
| 0:46.1 | so just before we started talking it went into western and eastern easter because i'm latin right |
| 0:52.6 | catholic and he's i guess armenian orth, technically, but going to Greek Orthodox. And so the Easter date is a week apart. We started talking about that. All right, but I gave you a few topics, Mr. Daryl Cooper, and I said, we can cover any of these. And so you chose this topic for yourself. We could sit here and talk about the Middle East all day. |
| 1:11.6 | That's easily done. But let me tell you something, I have done an awful lot of that. |
| 1:16.4 | I've been doing a lot of that lately. So let's talk about another thing that is affecting |
| 1:21.8 | the United States very, very greatly, and which is, you know, like the situation in Iran, not necessarily |
| 1:30.4 | quite so easily unwound. And that is the matter of immigration, particularly mass |
| 1:35.7 | immigration, of the kind that's happened really in just recent years. Obviously, since |
| 1:41.7 | 1965, because of that federal law, we've seen a shift in the |
| 1:47.4 | composition of immigration, but it just went absolutely completely bonkers under Joe Biden. |
| 1:53.7 | So we want to talk a bit about that. And as with the Middle East, it's hard to talk about |
| 1:59.7 | issues like this. I don't care, but some people probably do because because you talk about immigration, you get called names. You talk about the Middle East, you get called names. You talk about anything of significance, you get called names. After a while, you just stop caring. You know, sticks and stones may break my bones, you know, but names can never hurt me. Since you and I work for ourselves and I don't care |
| 2:19.2 | what any boss says about me, it doesn't matter. The names don't matter. You and I can just talk |
| 2:24.2 | about important things. How about that? Yeah, it's a rare privilege and one that really only has |
| 2:30.3 | existed in the world for a few years now, so I'm very grateful for that. Yeah, it's amazing to be a part of it. Once you've been called all the names, then, you know, anything new that they come up with or try to come up with doesn't sting as much. Yeah, that's the thing. Like, okay, you've already done it. So now what's the next thing? What's the next? Now you might actually have to do the unthinkable and address what I'm saying. I don't know if they'd ever go to quite that extreme, Darrell, but all right. So let's dig into this. There are a lot of different perspectives on this question. Obviously, there's the completely open borders position. There is a brand of libertarianism that would argue you have no right to your culture. You don't own it. You don't own it the way you own a toothbrush or a |
| 3:08.2 | house you know you haven't mixed your labor with it so it's not true that you have any real say over it |
| 3:13.8 | and if it were to vanish tomorrow well you know so much the worse but you had no claim on it |
| 3:19.3 | because you don't own it in a in a locky and sense there's that perspective there's obviously the perspective of people |
