Episode 97 — AI, Paganism & the Death of the West: James Kirkpatrick UNCENSORED!
James Kirkpatrick [Kevin DeAnna] joins us to break down the crisis of modern democracy, the future of nationalism, and what Julius Evola’s philosophy actually means in 2025. We discuss whether 21st-century nationalist movements live up to Evola’s standards, how a “warrior-ascetic” can survive in an age of drones and smartphones, and whether AI will accelerate cultural collapse—or help preserve what remains of Western identity.
Other topics include:
• Why democracy may be structurally incapable of producing anything but mediocrity
• How long the myth of “consent of the governed” can survive mass suffrage
• Whether modern paganism is an authentic revival or suburban escapism
• The dangers of polytheistic thinking for any serious right-wing hierarchy
• Technology vs ideology vs isolation: which destroys meaning fastest?
• Is meaning found in struggle, victory, or something deeper?
A wide-ranging conversation on political theory, spiritual decline, technological acceleration, and what the Right must confront in the years ahead.
