Guest bio: Jeremi Suri is a historian at UT Austin.
Sorry Lex, but Destiny is at best a centrist who is economically conservative and socially liberal. In other words he is to the right of center like corporate Democrats, but to the left of corporate Republicans (both of whom are neo liberals). If you want a truly left of center new media political person (i.e left of the corporate Democrats, and even left of Bernie Sanders) you should invite Hasan Piker on to your show.
I'm Jewish...thank God for America's Christian roots and foundation...this guy is a fool
Shut up jew
You must have felt very safe with there charlottesville rally chants.
@Nuhash Ahmed felt 100% safe. The first amendment is the sole reason America has been the best country for Jews in history..
@@pensgator I wonder if that would continue if we continue to enable and coddle the republican base
@Joshido ...that would be me and my entire Jewish family...but love Dems too!
Anytime ANYBODY talks about ANYTHING involving Black people and/or White Supremacy or anything like that, people are just going to hate and dismiss it.
Especially when it’s a J doing it
bcz it's bs
This country is still filled with racist pieces of shit. The whole right side ideologies is rooted in it
@abortion is murder (((blackpill daily))) how….
@abortion is murder (((blackpill daily))) keep telling yourself that
I wonder if Lex reads his comments section and think, “omg look at the cretins that follow me. What have I done?”
Or does that Google ad revenue hit too good?
Wisdom is realizing people you disagree with have a valuable perspective
This man is an activist posing as a Historian. Just like todays journalism. True Historians tell the good the bad and the ugly from continant to continant, not just south of one nation at one particular point in time.
Exposing the Left 101
@@dannywitt5160 continant isn’t a word. What did he say here that was factually incorrect?
everyone’s a racist, to some degree and denying and trying to pretend some people don’t have those feelings is just a sick joke.
@@AndreaDavidEdelman no one wants the perspective of a racist
Why is Lex’s comment section always so toxic. It is one of the worst I have seen
Attracts a lot of racists in denial
Get out of here if free speech is too much for ya,
Learn to tolerate other opinions sometime
@@henrywolf5332 I was using my free speech to comment on other people’s free speech
@@henrywolf5332 triggered
Toxic? It is a reality, every tribe will ALWAYS prefer their own. The ONLY exception are white liberals, who will gladly allow genocide of their own people if it will benefit outer group. Basically they are traitors of their own people.
Remarkable conversation 👏👏💯
I love all the mouth breathers here that can discount a historian with their own extensive life experience!
I don't think citing Egyptian, Greek, and Arab historians qualifies as "life experience", although it would seem to confirm their conclusions lol.
This was excellent
How mad is Nick that since he's gotten himself banned on all major mainstream platforms, he can't rebuke anything these people bring up beyond his little corner of the internet. Kinda sad if you think about it.
Really showing your colors here…
Cope
What’s sad about a N*zi being banned?
He's been on timcast, and a few other high profile RUclips accounts
So...he was not aware that the KKK primarily attacked Catholics not blacks?
It's almost as if he hasn't really studied history and just knows the version they taught him in 5th grade
Catholics aren't a race, dude.
The way you all twist and change history to fit your narrative is laughable at this point.
More like he belongs to the tribe that writes the history curriculums for 5th graders
Funny enough the Catholic Church benefited from slavery just as much as other private institutions.
He never said anything to the contrary. Actually, this further proves his point. That christian and white nationalism are separate constructs.
"We are not a christian nation, anymore than we are a Jewish or Muslim nation" - John Adams.
Souce this
lol absolute bs. we have an entire political party that completely forgot about separation of church and state and base their party's position on christian values
@@guccimane6116 The founders would shoot themselves in the dick if they saw what republicans are trying to do to this country. Especially while they claim to be patriots.
A fantastic truth
This Historian lost some credibility with me when he compared Robert E. Lee with Hitler. What the heck?
What he calls "White supremacy" is actually something that has been around since the dawn of civilization. You can read about how Egyptians and Greeks (especially Greek philosophers) saw different races as "superior". Many of the Greeks even used to talk about how Mediterranean skin was "far superior" because it wasn't as light as Northern and Central Europeans, as well not as dark as Africans. Iraqi Abu Firas al-Hamadani also made a similar comment, but in a much more graphic and degrading way that I won't post here. We can go to various Arab historians and philosophers who also talked about various races being "superior". Al-Jahiz wrote all the way back in the 9th century that "We know that the Zanji(black Africans) are the least intelligent and least discerning of mankind, and least capable of understanding the consequences of actions". Al-Mas'udi wrote in the 10th century "The Zanji are people of black color, flat noses, kinky hair, and little understanding of intelligence." I can keep going on and on and on, but I'd be here all day.
So you agree with these ancient philosophers is what you’re trying to say
@@DevinMcSalty And that somehow justifies being a supremacist? You must be a fan of the holocaust too? Since through out history jews have been mass persecuted by different civilizations.
Also please donot confuse aesthetic colourism like the greeks you're talking about which is just preference of the fairer skin in terms of beauty rather than basis of discrimination for everything else. It must also be noted that the Islamic world didnot principally believe in superiority of any race. So those authors you've quoted without any source might I add didnot reflect the general civilization at all.
There’s nothing wrong with having pride in ur skin tone. Or believing ur better than others. Everyone needs to feel they’re special in their outer and inner world because of xyz factors. Problem is when u take those beliefs to knock other groups, enslave them and their generations, loot/destroy their assets, and colonize them by wiping out their roots/cultures and forcing ur own because of that “superiority complex”. And only two cults have gone around d world and have kept those lands and resources even today after practically wiping out d natives.
@@DevinMcSalty
no, as a fellow Devin with an i, I find your ignorance sad. What I mean is that this is just another example of how many people today don’t realize that our way of thinking is way beyond anything before it. And that it would be seen as not just wrong, but insane by the overwhelming majority of every group of people in every part of the world from like 1930 and earlier. And you can even see the old ways of thinking in many parts of the world today.
The millions of black slaves in the Middle East, millions of Christian and pagan African slaves in Africa, and the millions of minority slaves in Asia aren’t in that position because muh capitalism. The blatant racism towards black people that would make Jim Crow laws look silly in comparison in places like Qatar and Saudi Arabia exists because they haven’t moved on like we have.
@@Ms.Fowlbwahhh The ignorance in your comment is astounding. Ask any person of colour from the last 5 decades or so that've lived in the middle east if there experience is anything like the Jim Crow south.
The comment section here is atrocious.🤣😂
3:04
Wow!
I think Steph Turley would be a good guest for this topic.
Does anyone really believe Lex's sudden popularity is organic?
No
Not a chance
I keep waiting for the Black Nationalism episode to drop. It’s never going to.
Came after white supremacy cause & affect my friend
@@Kingxvinny330 Word. Looking forward to the reaction to the acceptance of black nationalism. Be inclusive when it gets here
Because black nationalism really isn't a thing ! Lol
Well, don’t see the black nationalist get as much views lol, never seen them on feeds or news on them. They probably need better SEOs lol
@@nexus7monster neither are trans kids
Oh no. Oh good god.
what an absolute waste of time this was
Clowntacular episode
YE24 America First it INEVITABLE!!! -NJF
England had Christian Nationalism, the head of state was also the head of the Church of England (and still is).
And we fought a war against those a$$holes because we didn't want to continue following in their footsteps, no?
Oliver Cromwell was as close to a Theocratic dictatorship as you can get.
@@nlabanok by the mid-to-late 18th century, the colonies which became the United States were considerably more religious than the United Kingdom was at that time. That is why the US is still considerably more religious than virtually every country in Europe today - the UK included, which is really quite irreligious overall - one of the most atheistic and secular nations in the west. The splitting off of the US from the British colonial imperial project had absolutely nothing to do with religion, and you say 'because we didn't want to continue following in their footsteps,' yet the US kept its British common law legal system, it based its constitution off of the work of English enlightenment era intellectuals (namely John Locke), and continued to also act as an expansionistic power, just as Britain did elsewhere around the world at the same time. So, no, it was not to avoid 'following in their footsteps.'
@@thomasweir2834 Not really. Cromwell, despite being a puritan, was not against religious pluralism. That is why it was him who invited Jews back to England, as they had been banned for nearly 400 years, since 1290 during the reign of by King Edward I. Cromwell also even reprimanded the New England settlers (almost exclusively Puritans at that time, as he was) for going down to Maryland and killing the Catholic settlers there in that distinctly English catholic colony, and just last year John Morrill, emeritus professor of British and Irish history at Cambridge University discovered some groundbreaking primary source documents written by Cromwell and his contemporaries which also expressed approval for religious pluralism, including Catholicism, in England and Ireland.
@@PercivalC Uh, deep analysis but wrong...the US Constitution ensured freedom FROM the British practice of having one and only one religion allowed by law and a religion sanctioned by the state. Those are the footsteps that were being avoided....not the intensity of religion as those moving to the US for freedom of worship were devout worshippers so it is no surprise that religious intensity in the colonies / nascent new nation was higher than Britain. The desire, actually the need, for freedom of worship is the second pillar upon which immigration to the US was built....the first being the lure of a true greenfield economic opportunity for those willing to take the substantial risk of moving.
So Jeremi has some nice credentials: Stanford, OU, Yale and 11 books on politics and foreign policy. His profile touts that he "teaches courses on strategy and decision-making, leadership, globalization, international relations and modern history. " But you can't find any details on what he has actually done in his life in the "real world." No military experience, no business experience, not even some nice government work. No. He's a thinker you see. A Big thinker. His biggest decisions have never been more stressful than venti or grande at Starbucks. I definitely want to hear more from him.
braindead reply, you can say that about so many public figures, hope u denounce JP for the same reasons
@@dylanlai2300 Ah, the everybody is doing it or are idiots argument. Good one. The quality of Jeremi's thought is poor. And he isn't even outside the box. He's conformist, orthodox and unoriginal. Just what you need to climb the ladder in academia.
@@vdanger7669 ah yes, the "only ppl that are considered academic are the ppl i agree with" argument. good one. Your comnment discredits all academics based on "lack of military experience or gov. work" is funny af especially cuz u only do this to ppl u disagree with lmfao
I’m not sure what you’re complaining about, every society needs people like this.
@@joshido7352 nah according to Mr. V. Danger if you havent served in military or had a government job, your years of teaching at a top school in the US and writing 11 books isn't "academic"
Get Nick Fuentes on your show
Who is that guy and does he have any accolades or expert knowledge
so sick of the obsession with inclusion. I want exclusion. I want a place where our identity is central and no one else. Muslims are not American in the way that Christians are. Pray for Russia. Pray for Ukraines defeat
Oh lord, here we go. 😮💨😪
Might- power- makes ‘right.’ Always has always will. When China conquers Amerika their power will be ‘right.’ If the “Martians’ conquer the earth planet- again power makes ‘right.’ See: “The Unique and Its Property “, Max Stirner/ Landstreicher translation.
'When"
China and Martians ?
Pffft, them midgets are gonna get their arses stomped.
Might makes "called 'right'". Only if you think to be, and to be so-called, are the same thing, will you think that means that Might makes Right.
China isn't going to conquer anything. China is in decline and will never become the dominant super power.
It should have been discussed that there was implied bias that this was a country that, independent of demonination, had a belief centered around the bible.
Christian nationalists are a 20th century thing. It’s just a veil for white supremacy .
Lmao of course Destiny is mentioned in a video like this
Destiny is far left hahahaha. Professor Suri is almost certainly well to the left of Destiny.
He's not far left given people in the far left call him transphobic, sexist, etc
@@Linny95 Who defines what and where the far-left is?
@@mrhellmann14 Ok, then what would you define as far left?
Fake 🧐
Throughout the history of humankind, is there a country, race, color, culture or creed that hasn't done awful atrocities to they're own or other people? None should be excused and all should be spoken on truthfully and learned from for the betterment of the human race. To whichever group you subscribe, we should all strive to better oneself. Up with love, down with hate.
But the numbers say whites are the worst according to history
get nick fuentes
That goof ball virgin ahaha 🤣🤣🤣 imagine how hard he’d get laughed at in a room with any girls 🤣🤣 what a nerdddddd
How could Europeans not feel a sense of supremacy when they had outstripped all other cultures in technology and trade and the entire world was demanding their products and goods, including the peoples they were conquering?
Actually they didn’t.. but they did do was take to the seas. That is undeniable. It was Europeans who mapped the globe and established world commerce.
To answer Lex’s question. If God had the grace to grant us one million of Cardinal Robert Sarah, the positive impact on America and the world would be immeasurable.
Walk thru black neighbors
Then go and see white neighbours
Than have a conclusion
Stupidest comment so far lol
@@jasonmartin7798 reading your one,can't disagree
No such thing as a black or white neighborhood they’re black people in the suburbs too and white poor folks in the hood on drugs and contributing to crime in fact more white incarcerated in America than black men or any other race although more black men go to jail per the amount of blacks in America but that’s mostly to do with racial profiling blacks are harassed by cops far more then white men
