"A writer who says that there are no truths, or that all truth is 'merely relative,' is asking you not to believe him. So don't." -Roger Scruton
England will live forever in Roger’s videos.
Such a loss,Douglas Murray carries his message.
Douglas Murray is not a thinker 😂 he doesn't carry anything of value
Mr Scruton is a visionary who's brilliant talk here, is more relevant today in England and USA than he would have ever possibly imagined.
They English way of life he refers too is disappearing... Mass migration has turned many of the major cities into something very much not English.
Blame globalisation and the big corporations, they are the ones that destroy cultures, not the poor Syrian or Polish guy next door.
You are correct to say that they would not be there if not for the corporations, elites, and policy specialists. But just as airport staff take the brunt of anger for bad flight policies made by executives, so too do the immigrants for the global elite. Having your flight cancelled, just as having your country change in character overnight, still remains an issue. @@hatidjesabri7326
Profoundly grateful for this upload.
Would be awesome to have the original dates of these talks posted.
April 11, 2005. So it says at the start.
George Orwell has a documentary called “a life in pictures” …he helped me understand that being from England means something culturally and I can articulate myself better to other Americans from Europe who cliticize my conduct at work (humble not weak), in neighborhoods (not waving out of respect/rude to them)..i live in the northeastern region. I’m English so I’d rather not say.
My ancestors came here with the Virginia company a very long time ago. Imagine the confusion of not knowing about culture and dna. I was so excited to learn that I’m a “wasp”. My family and friends are not as excited to talk about being a wasp.
We have a very “kitsch “ lawyer here who has a lot of power in family/probate courts….he was born in England and obviously not a hereditary lord. He is also a local politician/candadate. My advice to England is to keep the House of Lords and come over here. We need to preserve our options.
He spoke twenty years ago perhaps, and was considered a sage and might as well not have spoken, for all that he was not heard by authority:nor are the rest of us, or ever shall be and thus we know that there is no salvation in mankind, either in the prophet or the king.
It is now obvious that Roger Scruton was wrong in his analysis. Scruton was in fact an eloquent part of the problem: the taboo of ethnocultural nationalism. EU was not what disintegrated England. The remaining taboo of etnocultural pride and Ethnic Nationalism is what will shame the English into extinction if they don't wake up and start to fight back.
