Although hope is the topic of this particular podcast episode, I want to go through a few preliminary matters first, before getting into the topic itself.

So first, a discussion of the current state of affairs.

There are those who would contend that the strength of the West is spent, that our energy is sapped, that our time is past.

I do not subscribe to such a view.

I do not hold to those conclusions.

Admittedly, the West today is a civilization in decline, but I do not believe our decline is terminal.

It is a temporary decline, a speed bump in our story, in our civilizational mythos.

We will rise again, as we have always done, and we will reach heights never before seen.

I have absolute faith in our people and I have absolute faith in our God.

Our God cannot lie, and He has promised to enlarge our people, and to never abandon us.

More on that in just a little bit.

And so I want to discuss the issue of so-called black pills.

It has become, on the right, and generally in society, popular to seek out, read, collect, share, and publicize negative stories and negative information, these so-called black pills.

This is a very serious problem.

This behavior is unbecoming for sons of the West.

Stop doing it.

We all know what we face.

We all know what we have temporarily at least lost.

We do not need to remind our brothers and sisters of this information every single day.

Demoralizing our own only helps the enemy.

Now, there is a proper place for negative stories and negative information, but it is not a hobby.

It is not something that should be a major part of one's day.

Do not devote your time and effort to this.

Do other things that are productive.

We are engaged in a war, and war is not fought only on battlefields.

The narrative is a battlefield.

Now, of course, at present we do not control the narrative.

However, we can have personal control over such things as the narrative in our own minds, as the narrative that we share with others.

So control your mind and your tongue.

Again, do not demoralize your brothers and sisters.

We are going to win, and you must believe this.

No one is going to believe you if you say we are going to win, and then you spend your time sharing negative information and negative stories.

So stop doing it.

Now, it may seem like I am going to violate my own rule right now, but I'm not.

As I said, there is a time and a place, and this is a time and a place to address the particular issue of despair.

Now, for Zoomers and younger, particularly young men, there is this ambient, pervasive despair in our society.

Now, giving in to that may be easy.

In fact, it is fairly easy.

But that is what our enemy wants.

Do not give the enemy what he wants.

Now, I recognize it's easy to say that, and it's another thing to live in this society under present conditions and do it.

Life is struggle, and those who struggle are those who succeed.

So I am asking you to keep fighting.

What we are going through now is temporary.

Matters will improve, move forward.

If we keep moving forward, if we keep struggling, if we keep fighting, we will ultimately succeed.

And now to get into the topic proper, I want to discuss hope.

Why do I have hope?

Well, two reasons.

First, a belief in our people.

Second, a belief in our God.

I am going to go over the first at length, and then the second in, well, also at length, but we'll do the first.

First point, belief in our people.

Look at our history.

Is there a more impressive history of any people, any civilization?

The answer is no, of course not.

What we, as the sons and daughters of Japheth, have accomplished eclipses everything else.

Even look at our present.

Yes, even in our decadent, decayed state, we surpass all would-be competitors.

And now I want to address neo-pagans specifically.

There are those who will say that, a
