Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the podcast. This is JP Mac, and I am your humble host, and this is Liberty Relearned, not just another conservative blog. And so, yes, this is going to be another straight-to-Substack podcast, and so it’ll be sans video for you video fans out there. We’ll try and get that fixed, but you do get the audio fixed. And isn’t that the most important? I think so. So anyway, let’s get on with it. But first, of course, I want to wish a happy Labor Day because this is Labor Day weekend. So happy Labor Day to all the laborers out there, all of those people who make things and fix things and make things go. We appreciate your hard work. On this Labor Day weekend. And remember, being in the trades is a good thing and we need to promote it more. Some people want to go to a four year college and get a four year degree and that’s fine. Other people are more suited towards the labor fields and the skilled labor fields in particular and So they want to go that route. And so, you know, both groups of people are needed. The people who go to college and go become engineers and doctors, lawyers and stuff like that. And also the people who go to trade schools and become like HVAC technicians, electricians and plumbers and things like that. Both groups are needed. But You know, for probably the last few decades, at least, you know, the trades have been looked down upon. And, you know, the gold standard has been, at least in our society lately, seems to have been the four-year degree or the six-year degree or, you know, master’s and doctorates and stuff like that. But, you know, a lot of people don’t need that, right? Most people just need a good trade degree, good tradesman training. And so to those people especially, we celebrate them on Labor Day. We don’t have to go down this path of civilizational suicide. I kind of like Western civilization and what it brings, the rule of law, small L liberal democracy. And, you know, these republic system, republican systems of government and things like that and Judeo-Christian ethics and all of that stuff and art and culture, all that goes with Western civilization. I kind of like all that stuff and I want to stay around too. And so I hope you do too. And if you think things like Western civilization not being wiped off the face of the earth is important, Maybe share this message. And wherever you see things going wrong that have to do with the culture, you will share those things too. But I think Western culture needs to be saved. It’s worth saving. And let’s get to it. Let’s not go the way of ancient Rome. And other cultures that crumble under their own weight. sources: https://gettr.com/post/p43ghspbbe6 https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/09/radical-maine-democrat-senate-nominee-wants-state-seize/ https://gettr.com/post/p439bgocd61
