    The Republicans are Transhumanists Now (Pt 1)

    (The clip of Netanyahu was removed on Spotify due to copyright. Find it in my upload on YouTube.)Transhumanism is the hidden ideology reshaping America. Peter Thiel, JD Vance, Elon Musk, and the PayPal Mafia are building infrastructure to overcome human biology.In this episode, we discuss the ideological shift from conservatism to libertarianism in practice under Trump's second term, with transhumanist ambitions driving Silicon Valley billionaires who now directly shape government policy.This isn't a conspiracy. It's documented funding, government contracts, and stated ambitions of the world's most powerful technologists to transcend biological human limits through AI, brain-computer interfaces, genetic selection, and life-extension research. And they're simultaneously building escape routes for when people catch on. If the people building your future don't believe in staying to live in it, what does that tell you?Sources: Thiel, longevity & "escaping evolution":CNBC — https://www.cnbc.com/2021/09/21/silicon-valleys-quest-to-live-forever-could-benefit-the-rest-of-us.htmlSocial Life Magazine — https://sociallifemagazine.com/celebrities/bezos-thiel-longevity-investments/Embryo screening (Orchid / Nucleus):Axios — https://www.axios.com/2025/11/22/ivf-designer-babies-how-orchid-nucleusScience (AAAS) — https://www.science.org/content/article/genetics-group-slams-company-using-its-data-screen-embryos-genomesNeuralink:Neuralink (official) — https://neuralink.com/updates/neuralink-raises-650m-series-e/Fierce Biotech — https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/elon-musks-neuralink-kickstart-high-volume-production-brain-computer-interface-devicesEpstein's AI / robotics funding (Goertzel, Hanson, Arel):South China Morning Post — https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/society/article/3343645/epstein-funded-ai-pioneer-helped-him-get-hk89-million-hong-kong-government-grantsVashon-Maury Island Beachcomber — https://www.vashonbeachcomber.com/2026/02/27/islander-bankrolled-by-epstein-on-and-off-for-nearly-two-decades/Retrograde - https://retrogradenews.com/2026/02/16/personal-assistants-sexy-robots-ghislaine-the-utd-epstein-connection/The Verge - https://www.theverge.com/tech/872888/sophia-the-robots-creator-asked-epstein-to-fund-bots-with-sexy-android-bodiesPalantir, DOGE & IRS data consolidation:Wired - https://www.wired.com/story/palantir-doge-irs-mega-api-data/TechCrunch — https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/05/doge-reportedly-planning-a-hackathon-to-build-mega-api-for-irs-data/PBS NewsHour / AP — https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/doge-seeks-access-to-taxpayer-data-at-irs-ap-reportsThe Minab school strike & AI targeting:Amnesty International — https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2026/03/usa-iran-those-responsible-for-deadly-and-unlawful-us-strike-on-school-that-killed-over-100-children-must-be-held-accountable/Just Security (legal analysis) — https://www.justsecurity.org/134350/legal-analysis-minab-school-strike/Army Times — https://www.armytimes.com/news/your-military/2026/03/24/deadly-iran-school-strike-casts-shadow-over-pentagons-ai-targeting-push/Peter Thiel's move to Argentina:NewsNation — https://www.newsnationnow.com/politics/peter-thiel-argentina-report/Yahoo News / Nexstar — https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/peter-thiel-temporarily-relocated-argentina-231416122.htmlBillionaire bunkers & "apocalypse insurance":loveproperty — https://www.loveproperty.com/gallerylist/73268/billionaire-boltholes-to-survive-the-end-of-the-worldAOL (Rushkoff, "Survival of the Richest") — https://www.aol.com/news/see-inside-luxury-bunkers-where-134500525.html#Transhumanism #TechBillionaires #PeterThiel #Trump #AI #Palantir #JDVance #Neuralink #STARGATE #Politics #Technology #Libertarianism #Conservatism #SiliconValley #PayPalMafia #DOGE #MavenAI #Podcast

    American Nationalism: Blood & Soil

    Among the various reasons to turn to Nationalism, one of the most fundamental is a feeling of reverence for the blood of your people and the ground beneath your feet. At the most basic level, a nation is a shared people, in a shared land, with a perceived sense of continuity: a sense that “we are the same people across time, the same as we have been and as we will be.”We discuss the idea of blood and soil in American Nationalism, what it means to be the American people, and briefly defend the idea of American soil.

    American Nationalism: Western Culture

    Leaders in the right wing seem to think that country culture is the solution to wokeism and leftism. They are wildly mistaken. In this video, we examine the problem with what TPUSA and the Republican Party want to feed us, and how a real Nationalist response to this issue would look.

    American Nationalism: Christianity

    Religion is important in any movement, but in American politics, it is one of the most fundamental and hotly debated. For success, an American Nationalist movement must remember and affirm our Christian foundations. This means returning to an exclusively Christian system of law.

  6. 8

    American Nationalism: Power

    The notion of power fundamentally underlies a strong system of American Nationalism. Power must be bound by our traditions and our values, beginning with Christianity. We discuss how power should function and examine how it is being used currently.

  7. 7

    American Nationalism: Intro

    Season 2 opens with a discussion about what Nationalism actually is, and a roadmap for how this season will unfold.

    Christmas, FNAF 2, and the Future of JADED

    In this episode, Deacon and I discuss the art of filmography and how FNAF 2 can be a more impressive film than most recent films, we discuss the war on Christmas, and we describe the future of the podcast.

  9. 5

    Current Events: The Absolute State of RW Influencers

    In this episode, we have a nice, casual discussion about the state of right-wing influencers and other developments in the world. This episode is satire, and any people or places named are purely fictional; any resemblance to real people is purely coincidental.

  10. 4

    Art and Aesthetic

    In this interview with John, we discuss the purpose of Art and Aesthetics, their utility in motivating and mobilizing, and the moral obligations that artists face in their craft.

  11. 3

    The Braintrust: Can a Conservative Government be Socialized

    In this episode, we commence a meeting of the braintrust (comprised of myself, the producer, and Deacon) to discuss how conservatism can be reconciled with socialized healthcare, the downsides of a capitalist system, and the role of the military in national identity.

  12. 2

    A Vision for Conservatism

    In this episode, we describe the vision for a renewed movement of conservative young men who are unashamed and uncompromising in their convictions, and what that would mean for the movement.

  13. 1

    Pastor Mark Brody

    In this episode, I interview Pastor Mark Brody and discuss the issue of discourse in modern politics, and what it means for the right wing when discourse is no longer the solution.

    What Being Conservative Means to Young Men

    In this episode, I interview Deacon, a young fellow with perspective and insight into the world of college politics for conservative, Christian young men. We discuss the environment and circumstances this demographic finds itself in, and what to do about them. Deacon will be joining the Jaded Observer as a staff writer and contributing many more insights in the days to come. Welcome to the team!

    The Importance of Family, A Grandfather, and the Impending Emotional Age of Politics

    In this episode, we discuss Jungian Archetypes and how they can be understood for conservatism. The importance of a family structure cannot be overstated, especially older figures like a grandfather for creating upright, uncompromising young men who are emotionally ordered and able to challenge the modern world.

  17. -3

    An Interview with The Producer

    In this episode, we meet the show producer and discuss the process of young people waking up into politics, the reality they face, and what it would take to create a unified right wing.
