3340 The Rise of Patriotism - Call In Show - July 6th, 2016

Question 1: [2:08] - “Is the song 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen the ultimate ballad of male disposability? Is the truth of the song hidden and obscured just enough, so that it could safely pass through to the masses, without being a "message" or political song (like 'Feed The World'). Is there a correlation between Freddie Mercury and someone like Milo Yannopolous - gay dudes coming out (no pun intended) and speaking about the issues of men, because the ordinary cisgendered can't or won't speak from their hearts?”Question 2: [18:48] - “The recent War on Men show with Suzanne Venker was a major wakeup call for me. While I am a woman, my whole life I have most admired masculine ideals - toughness, courage, rationality - and my interests and hobbies reflect that. Have I subconsciously sabotaged my sexual market value?”Question 3: [1:43:38] - “I’m a 29-year-old Hispanic male and want to have a discussion about – patriotism. I think I’m experiencing it for the first time ever in my life – like a new emotion – a brand new feeling to explore. With the turmoil happening in our country and monumental events happening in Europe with immigration, Brexit, and an inept European Union seemingly on the verge of turning into a more sinister version of its current self – I do not find myself becoming more disillusioned or confused. What I find is the birth of wholeness and light – a heaviness of weight that feels love, gratitude, and fury for this land I call home. I would only call it patriotism.”“I would like to hear your thoughts. What is patriotism? How does a people or a society become patriotic or develop a deep-deeded love for their country and its well-being? How is patriotism lost as a society - that feeling, that passion, diminished over time? What are the consequences? Finally, are these global rumblings simply the catalyst for reigniting one’s love for country and kin - is this the natural order of things?"Question 4: [2:31:58] - Throughout history, there has been a drive towards the strengthening of property rights as nations have become more industrialized. However, there is an ever growing push for social justice and economically egalitarian policies throughout the West. What are some of the falsities of the prosperous European Socialist state, and to what extent is progressive culture and social philosophy destructive of both civilization and the rights and liberties of individuals on personal and economic grounds?”Freedomain Radio is 100% funded by viewers like you.
