Murray is just continuing to push forward with his liberalism. He has always said he doesn't like Islam because Islam is opposed to liberalism. So the repatriation of extremely ideological muslims isn't really anything new. But it is interesting to hear Farage, Murray, Hopkins and their ilk now talking about more extreme measures.

Interesting that Katie Hopkins and Tommy Robinsom were just reinstated on X, too.

We'll see what happens in the elite circles. The plutocrat faction will probably still be for mass immigration for economic reasons. But this would speak to a shift in coalitions within the elite which political change can happen in that kind of an environment. But then again we will see.

It isn't necessarily the case that Murray's 'mainstream' prominence and socioeconomic status were acquired by his astute social skills and awareness of knowing what he can say and get away with. Notice how, on the question of Israel, there's a proximity between his 'edgy' position and the US/UK government position.

You'll remember his book, "The Madness of Crowds - Gender, Race and Identity", in which he theorises about why groups in society continue down a path beyond the point of diminishing returns and onto self-detriment (who doesn't remember the train arriving at the station analogy?) Like Jordan Peterson, Murray's outspoken views, particularly around the pandemic response, have made him very popular among large parts of the 'freedom movement'. However, when Joe Rogan raised the topic of the mass rollout of the experimental 'vaccines' and ensuing coercion of the public (including mandates for public workers) his response was "that's not in my wheelhouse". Conspicuously, he couldn't apply his own theory which would clearly contradict the US/UK government position.

I'm not suggesting Murray (or Peterson for that matter) is a government shill, more likely, at some point he's under the same branch of the hierarchy. Either way, I don't interpret Murray's very calculated 'outbursts' as anything other than carefully choreographed manoeuvres to maintain his trajectory.

Douglas Murray is great -- The War on the West and The Strange Death of Europe were both outstanding. And of course, repatriation of the PoC masses would be a dream come true. Unfortunately, I believe it's just that -- a pipe dream. Let's walk through the logical proof: How do things like repatriation get enacted? Govt policy. And how does such policy get enacted? Politicians. And how do politicians get elected? Voters. And would vote for politicians that would support repatriation? White, Christian males. And how many of them does their need to be in order to win the vote? >51%. And does the demographically replaced voting populace have enough of them? No. Further, who influences the minds of the voters? Media, social media, marketing, TV, and Hollywood. And who controls those mediums, and thus the message? (((The chose people))). And what do (((they))) want? The Kalergi Plan -- i.e. to completely wipe out European genes from the face of the earth. So why would (((they))) allow repatriation to happen? They would not; they will not. Same story in the USA.

I don't mean to be cynical, but if you're looking to reverse the Great Replacement with "democracy," it is a problem of A. Math, and B. Messaging & propaganda. And Europeans have lost both of those battles long ago, irreversibly. IMHO spending resources and money on political crusades and hopes is squandered valuable resources and opportunity cost. The one thing I have seen that gives me hope that the Great Replacement can, in theory at least, be reversed, is: https://childfreebc.com/candidates/. This is a private (no affiliation with govt) service. Donors pay to sterilize dysgenic, low IQ individuals. If enough conservatives worldwide donate regularly to that site, in theory, we could sterilize the entire underclass of the world. As I understand they have already sterilized many blacks in the USA, saving future generations from having to deal with the o/w numerous illegitimate children they would have had. They can do the same in Europe -- these migrants will accept payment to undergo sterilization -- their IQs are low and their future orientation poor. Let's use these facts to our advantage. Jared Taylor did a video on CBC recently, but I have yet to see others on our side -- Murray, Dutton, Kevin MacDonald, Heather MacDonald, Amy Wax, Ann Coulter, Mark Dice, Paul Joseph Watson, Victor Davis Hanson, Brigitte Gabriel, Alex Jones, Katie Hopkins, Tommie Robinson, etc -- mention it at all. Hopefully they will, and you readers will donate and share it maximally. That's what I do. https://childfreebc.com/candidates/

Honestly I don't care what Douglas Murray thinks.

Having Douglas Murray as ideological gate keeper is so tiresome...

Murray has such privilege it make's one long for the return to the Thirties - the 1330s. I can't say what I think should be done to him and his ilk. To quote the Grate Peter Sun: "I can't ... go there"

I've read many Douglas Murray books over many years, but I have to warn you all now that he is definitely controlled opposition. He is there to collect the "strays" and bring them back into the right wing "Overton window". His appearance on "Trigonometry" shows exactly that, that show is there for no other reason.

Do NOT trust Murray or Trigonometry.

Something to like about Douglas Murray is the ease at which he stops speaking at key points and gives his interviewers a chance to respond with their own thoughts on a point. If you watched Peter Brimelow he has a cultured way of using "uhs" to hold the floor while segueing into his next thought. Not really a negative since everything he has to say is interesting, just a different style pf speaking than Douglas Murray.

Most in the US aren't aware that in some countries a citizen can bring a private prosecution with law enforcement. Douglas Murray had lawyers notify the Home Secretary, Attorney General, and other officials that if they did not bring a case to deport Muhammad Qassem Sawalha, a Hamas military commander living in London, that Murry himself would bring a prosecution. It's one thing to talk about it.

Douglas Murray has been consistently outspoken, I believe. Someone has to talk about repatriation if we want to preserve Europe. There's obviously no point in trying to persuade woke people, including some Jews, about the threat we face from the mass immigration of radical Muslims. They are religiously self-sacrificing. The film Quo Vadis (1951) set in ancient Rome, has a scene at the end where Emperor Nero discovers all the slain Christians have died smiling and this will be the case for the left wing progressives; they are unlikely to ever give up their liberal belief system, even though it means danger to most of us. Hamas supporting Palestinians are on their list of sacred minorities to worship just like Pakistani grooming gangs who remained immune from criminal prosecution for years.

Repatriation really seems to be gathering social momentum. I’m seeing it discussed more openly and I do believe this past weekend on Memorial Day truly did spark a flame within the British people that no longer want to tolerate the intolerable. I think this is just the beginning.

Murray is a zionist lackey.

Konstantin Kisin says something very wrong. I can't find it now so it could be in one of their other Douglas Murray interviews. It concerns intellectuals and those who fancy themselves as intellectuals, and how they see the average citizen, the everyman, if they see him at all.

Kisin is talking about the correct world view and right frame of reference to view politics. He mentions the radical far left and MAGA and then says there has to be a "healthy" middle, the implication being that the 60,000,000 Americans who voted for Trump are "unhealthy".

If it was more nuanced he sure didn't say "Democrats" or "Build Back Better". Applying that same "unhealthy" lens to either means there is no middle, leaving a bunch intellectuals talking to themselves. Just as bad is leaving half the population out of the discussion,

It's a book-length subject. The short version is Trump voters by and large are just average (normal) people alarmed at what's happening to their country and who think that waiting for a better Trump could be too late. There is no one else. And Trump's parade of horribles? $2.35gal gas, a booming economy, low inflation, no new wars, The Abraham Accords, a glimpse at least of "Hope and Change" vs. the Marxist slogan and socialist shit hole it represents.. Yet the left have turned him into the devil incarnate.

How is it a video of Douglas Murray calling for a Hamas terrorist living in London to be deported morph into a screed against Jews and Israel? Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organization in the UK. Want a snapshot of the world gone mad?

Muhammad Qassem Sawalha is not only a former/now Hamas commander, the UK government says he was in charge of Hamas terrorist operations in the West Bank and operating under several aliases. He then fled to the UK on a relative's passport and after a loving reception by lefties was given a discount of over 112,000 pounds on a Barnet Council two-story home worth around 320,700 pounds.

Taxpayer funded NGOs give illegals cash for the journey and when they arrive they are waived through by government counterparts here. In the US fake asylum claims been discarded entirely and illegals are being allowed in en masse with no paperwork at all. The latest scandal is Biden appointees directing BP officers to cut barbed wire fences holding back the invaders. As Douglas Murray says, these are not serious people.

Not impressed

Israel was able to take over Palestine and expand because they were backed by the Americans and British, no other reasons.
