Heard You Want Your Country Back

Today we have great questions on the Bob Vylan performance, the Big Beautiful Bill, Zohran, immigration, and much more! Let’s dig in.

The anti-white chants by performers at the largest music festival in the UK is like if rappers at Coachella were chanting Death to America. Do you think it’s the Western country that is most likely to see some kind of real civil conflict in the future, especially as more and more atrocities committed by migrants are uncovered? I’ve been told by friends who live there that the social atmosphere is so tense it can literally make you sick.
The audience at Coachella wouldn’t really care about the Death to America chants. I don’t think it’s the biggest thing in the world for a rather unknown black punk act to mock nationalist sentiment. It’s outrageous but punk bands have always made shitty leftist statements. It was designed to elicit attention so people would listen to Bob Vylan. (It proved successful.) It does reflect the audience’s attitude, which was mostly white. But i just see it as a left-wing version of edgelording.
On the civil conflict issue, Europe and the UK have far more potential for “white riots” over these matters. We saw that last year over the girls murdered by an African migrant. Northern Ireland erupted in riots a few weeks ago over migrants harassing girls. It will take a lot for a civil war to break out. But you will see more ethnic violence and race riots, that’s for sure. It’s why the state cracked down so hard on those rioters last year. The people in power realize the potential and want to stamp it out.
What are your thoughts on this tweet? https://x.com/memeticsisyphus/status/1939359689927479507 Do you think this is a phenomenon that is actually happening? I will say that I’ve been seeing Drew Pavlou’s tweets for awhile now, and for a self-proclaimed liberal he often now uses a lot of talking points that sound a lot like 2019 Tucker.
No, I don’t see this as a phenomenon happening. Pavlou isn’t a serious person. He’s supposed to be a conservative, not a liberal. But RW people have owned him so much that he likes to present himself as a liberal. Of course, he is mad about the “Death to the IDF” chant and he sounds apocalyptic about it. I also don’t think there is as much threats behind this rhetoric. There was a lot of left-wing terrorism in the ‘60s and ‘70s. Now we act like Teslas getting keyed is a sign of impending civil war. There’s a greater demand for left-wing violence in the West than there is the supply of it. Bob Vylan’s comments are just edgelording and people are being a bit hysterical over it.

I have a question re: the BBB. Insofar as you know, are the immigration removal provisions still robust? Worried that they will be gutted and we will be left with the (bad) tax provisions that further reduce tax burden of working class (who already pay no / little tax) and dump it on middle class and small biz owners
A lot of this stuff is still up in there. I’m not that worried about the tax burden being shifted. The most important part about the Big, Beautiful Bill is that it provides additional funding for Border Patrol and ICE. That’s still part of the bill. Some of the stuff taken out by the Parliamentarian would be nice to have but it’s not the gist of the legislation. I still insist on my point that that is the only legislation Congress can pass. As long as the funding is kept, it’s still good.

How big of a deal is SCOTUS's ruling in Trump's favor against universal injunctions by federal district judges?
This is great for Trump’s agenda. It will allow him to continue many of his immigration policies that liberal judges try to strike down with a stroke of a pen. It also undermines judicial power, giving more authority to the executive branch to affect policy. In the battle between the executive and judicial branches for power, this was a definite victory for the executive. It’s a big deal that will shape how our country is governed for years to come. It will hurt the Right when a Democrat returns to the White House, but that’s just the cost we have to accept.
Pay Per View
Do you think that the revised American Chavist is a BIPOC phony who appeals to the far left while also having a preppy background (AOC & Zohran)? With Zohran content being in vogue for Conservative media, a recent interview showed him eating some rice dish with his hands as a 3rd worlder yet he went to $60k/ year grammar school.
I have an article coming out tomorrow going further into this. The leaders of America socialism will be non-white, upwardly mobile, POC millennials. It will not be Chuy Garcia types. Their primary supporters will be from the lumpenbourgeoisie, but they will still get substantial immigrant support. “Theater kid” is a term overused in RW circles, but theater kid socialism does capture the gist of it.
Related to the NYC upset, How strong of a fire wall is it still for the establishment Dems that SC is their first primary state?
It will be a strong firewall. Black voters go for whoever the establishment machine picks and says will deliver specific goodies to them. A socialist won’t win the state. It will help an establishment candidate. But if the following states, all go to a socialist, it might not be as strong of a firewall.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of the Biden Trump debate which revealed Biden's senility to everyone. Do you think this had a bigger impact on destroying woke or the bud light boycott?
No, it had no real impact on woke. It just forced the media to accept the true nature of Biden. It did expose the media as full of liars, but that should’ve been clear well before. Trump would’ve won by an even bigger margin and Republicans would have secured more Senate and House seats if Biden had stayed in.
At what age do you teach race differences to children? Obviously teaching them too young can lead to ugly results, but you want them to hear it from someone they trust. I think they need to know truth before they become a blank slater and possibly a lib shit.
When they become teenagers. But you can be subtle about it earlier. Just tell them that people are born different and we aren’t all the same.

Hey Scott, a staffer for "BasedMikeLee" was SURPRISED to find out the online right is strongly against LEGAL immigration, too. Comparing online versus offline right, polling seems to indicate both hate ILLEGAL immigration.. but how much do you think normies want to shut off LEGAL immigration at this point?
Support for decreasing immigration is near a historic high at 55 percent, per Gallup. But I think a lot of that is due to how insanely high illegal immigration was under Biden. And the two forms of immigration lacked any real difference because the last president vowed not to deport anyone unless they were convicted of a serious crime. So illegal immigration essentially became legal migration.
But among normies, the majority of them do like legal immigration. Online Right attitudes are more prevalent among movement conservatives, but normies still fawn over migrants who “came the right way.” A total moratorium would be unpopular but you could still halve legal immigration without much backlash. Normie opinions can change on a dime as well. During Trump’s first term, a plurality wanted immigration INCREASED for the first time. Now a majority wants it increased. If people felt affected by restrictions, they could easily turn on it.

Cooper Flagg was picked number 1 in the NBA draft this past week as the first White American to do so in 50 years. In Scott's view does Flagg end up being legit Larry Bird? Or does he end up like Christian Laettner or some other Great White hope who did not quite live up to expectations?
I think he will be a dominant player. The NBA needs him to be a star as they lack stars normal Americans are interested in right now. It’s all either strange foreign players or straight hood rats. There is no Michael Jordan with broad cultural appeal. An incredible middle American white guy could be the NBA’s Caitlin Clark.
Election prediction question for 2026. In your view do some of the Republicans opposing Trump have a high chance of losing? Thomas Massie from the House and Thom Tillis and Lisa Murkowski in the Senate? How do you assess their re-election chances in 2026? Let me add 1 more key name to this Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.
Thom Tillis isn’t running for reelection anymore. Murkowski is not up for reelection until 2028. Trump already endorsed Graham, so I don’t see him losing. Massie is the only one with a tough battle. He’s fended off primary challenges several times, but he’s more vulnerable this year if they decide on one guy and Trump aggressively campaigns for the challenger. It is Trump’s party, and Trump campaigning against you in a deep red district is going to be a struggle.
Deuteronormative
To what extent do you think the Right should bother itself about the Income Inequality issue? I don't think the Right should acknowledge that class inequalities are problematic in isolation, but as you touched on in your IQ Supplement on the Shah of Iran, modern politics sometimes demands focus here.
It only becomes a problem when our people are affected by it. Most rightists who get really into income inequality begin advocating for the interests of the Democratic base. There are also not a lot of good solutions for it. But i think trying to tackle housing costs, crime, and corporations relying on cheap foreign labor would ameliorate some of these issues in American society. RW socialism doesn’t really work in America as the most fervent RW constituency hates high taxes and wealth redistribution.

Do you see South Asians in the 21st Century essentially becoming the equivalent of Anglos of the 18th and 19th centuries in terms of their influence and demographic impact?
It will be different but they will be highly influential, especially due to their migration to the Anglosphere. We will probably have an Indian president by 2040. We will definitely have an Indian Supreme Court justice by that time. The rest of the Anglosphere will have similar levels of South Asian influence. It’s a major problem that we need to halt, but it’s tough to convince normies to want a halt to Indian immigration as they come LEGALLY and don’t commit much crime. It will be interesting to see if they start acting on behalf of their native countries in the same way Jews do for Israel.
One huge cultural change that I've noticed in the U.S. over the last few years is that there are a lot more middle-class women wearing thong bikinis on the beach or at the pool. This what traditionally something that you only saw in Europe or South America but it seems to have become quite prevalent here in America. What does this mean for the future of our country?
Pretty much every taboo we had is in decline. Drugs, gambling, tattoos, and thot attire are now all perfectly acceptable. You will even see evangelicals wear this stuff. We live in a culturally libertarian paradise where people can dress however they want to. The only social norm respected is anti-racism. Besides that, you can walk around fully tatted in a skimpy bathing suit.

Much of the Asian and Hispanic upward mobility in my area is due to housing prices skyrocketing the past 25 years. Is it worth doing the same thing Canada did by requiring buyers to be US citizens? We can dampen some of the demand side pressures making housing less affordable.
Yes, I think that would be a great idea. I don’t have much else to say besides I agree!
It seems like you don't hear about athletes making it out of the hood anymore. Many players drafted seem to be from more working class or lower middle class backgrounds (based on cameras showing their home on draft night). Is this due to the Blacks living with extended family and living beyond their means, resulting in coaches not having to recruit from the inner-city?
I think it’s more the fact that these guys are identified at an earlier age and put on travel sports teams and given money from high schools and colleges to have a decent standard of living. Basketball players are just as hood as they were 20 years ago. I think it’s just they maybe make a better public appearance.

Is tipping culture in America getting out of control? It seems at some point during COVID the baseline crept up from 15% to 20% or even higher, and there have been reports of self-service machines at grocery stores prompting shoppers for a tip. Is it possible in the future people in apartments will be expected to tip to their landlords?
It is absolutely out of control. It’s also happening when you’re getting worse service. You’re now expected to give a 25% tip when the waitress took forever to bring your drinks. Much of the economy is built around wringing every last nickel out of a customer. Tipping is now part of that.
How did Red Lobster become the most popular sit-down restaurant chain among blacks? There were posts on X of blacks soyjaking over the news that its new Nigerian CEO is introducing $5 drinks and seafood boil bags, but even years before this, I once ate at a Red Lobster and it was impossible not to notice both the staff and clientele were very magical.
I think it’s just the one sit-down place that’s near where they live. They also like the food and it offered plenty of all you can eat specials which other chains did not offer. I’m sure there are other reasons as well, but they don’t come to mind at the moment.
