1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,660
You are listening to No PC Allowed, aka No Political Correctness Allowed, and I am Mac

2
00:00:09,660 --> 00:00:12,940
Iverson.

3
00:00:12,940 --> 00:00:19,140
Ships are safe in port, but that's not what ships are for.

4
00:00:19,140 --> 00:00:23,900
Vikings believed in reaching out and getting exactly what they wanted.

5
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:30,720
Granted, they were brutal warriors, but when they weren't raiding, they were trading and

6
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:37,440
farming in the northern frontier between the 9th and 11th centuries.

7
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,400
They did both.

8
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,960
They were offensive aggressors and settled farmers with families.

9
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:50,240
Modern-day Americans, as well, don't need to settle for an either-or mentality when

10
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,140
it comes to our lifestyles.

11
00:00:53,140 --> 00:00:55,420
We too can have it all.

12
00:00:55,420 --> 00:01:03,140
This means we must take action to create a healthy and vibrant freedom-loving America.

13
00:01:03,140 --> 00:01:10,020
By contrast, what do you think of when you envision an American conservative activist?

14
00:01:10,020 --> 00:01:16,420
Do you see an octogenarian with tea bags hanging down a straw hat and holding a Make America

15
00:01:16,420 --> 00:01:18,620
Great Again poster?

16
00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:24,340
To me, it's very sad that conservatives can be so easily typecast.

17
00:01:24,340 --> 00:01:30,640
Turning Point USA and the walk-away movement are geared more towards younger activists,

18
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,540
but there is still a gulf between young and old, it seems.

19
00:01:34,540 --> 00:01:39,380
Working parents don't have the time to become involved, and they are some of the most ignorant

20
00:01:39,380 --> 00:01:41,160
Americans.

21
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,540
They sponge up what's around them.

22
00:01:43,540 --> 00:01:49,520
They were indoctrinated by left-wing schools and college, and busy parents tend to associate

23
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:57,020
with others who are also too busy to open a book or spend critical time alone contemplating

24
00:01:57,020 --> 00:01:59,180
their role in society.

25
00:01:59,180 --> 00:02:05,980
Today, we're talking about freeing your inner Viking.

26
00:02:05,980 --> 00:02:07,460
Why a Viking?

27
00:02:07,460 --> 00:02:13,660
Vikings, to me, represent vicious, offensive aggressors who simply don't have time to

28
00:02:13,660 --> 00:02:15,340
mess around.

29
00:02:15,340 --> 00:02:20,540
They knew what they wanted, and they went out and they got it.

30
00:02:20,540 --> 00:02:25,940
Contrast this image to the America we live in now, and to me, it's quite sad.

31
00:02:25,940 --> 00:02:32,340
A typical day for an American begins with waking up to check email and phone messages,

32
00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:38,980
eating a rushed breakfast, spending the day at a stressful job and typically are overworked

33
00:02:38,980 --> 00:02:45,540
and overtaxed, and then they come home to or cross paths with their spouse who may also

34
00:02:45,540 --> 00:02:48,180
feel compelled to work full-time.

35
00:02:48,180 --> 00:02:53,200
The kids are often raised at daycare, are not at home much, and their lives are full

36
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,580
of activities designed to help them get into a good school someday.

37
00:02:58,580 --> 00:03:03,620
Contrast that image to one of 1950s America.

38
00:03:03,620 --> 00:03:10,740
Life has always been hard, but people were far less rushed and stressed then than now.

39
00:03:10,740 --> 00:03:16,140
Today, the pressure points are coming from everywhere.

40
00:03:16,140 --> 00:03:17,620
How did we get here?

41
00:03:17,620 --> 00:03:19,500
Well, one thing's for sure.

42
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:23,660
We didn't get here by acting like straight-shooting Vikings.

43
00:03:23,660 --> 00:03:31,100
We've become overly passive and compliant, and a phrase I absolutely detest politically

44
00:03:31,100 --> 00:03:35,580
correct and even worse, woke.

45
00:03:35,580 --> 00:03:41,940
I promise you this, the vast majority of pacified Americans could never even accurately explain

46
00:03:41,940 --> 00:03:50,380
how they got to this place, believing in silly garbage like critical race theory or CRT,

47
00:03:50,380 --> 00:03:56,740
or there are 50 trillion different genders, or your two-year-old son wants to be a girl

48
00:03:56,740 --> 00:03:59,820
and you're ecstatically happy over that.

49
00:03:59,820 --> 00:04:00,820
Why?

50
00:04:00,820 --> 00:04:06,620
Because you wouldn't be adequately woke if you weren't, and being woke is the most important

51
00:04:06,620 --> 00:04:12,300
thing in the world to you, when five years ago, you didn't even know what that ridiculous

52
00:04:12,300 --> 00:04:19,920
dripping with condescending superiority, manufactured fake word even meant.

53
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:26,620
In other words, gentlemen, you've lost your balls, and I ain't talking tennis balls, and

54
00:04:26,620 --> 00:04:33,860
ladies, you've lost your sanity because, well, your husband lost his balls.

55
00:04:33,860 --> 00:04:38,540
A big part of our collective challenge is that men are no longer men because since the

56
00:04:38,540 --> 00:04:45,140
sexual revolution, women have inserted themselves where they couldn't go before, largely because

57
00:04:45,140 --> 00:04:50,380
being sexually available opens up many locked, tight doors.

58
00:04:50,380 --> 00:04:59,760
To put it crudely, men will listen carefully if ladies give these gentlemen what they want.

59
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,860
So then the breakdown of the family occurs.

60
00:05:02,860 --> 00:05:08,960
Men won't act in healthy, natural, masculine ways because the sex that is current may become

61
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,220
a thing of the past.

62
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:14,460
Women are picky, men not so much.

63
00:05:14,460 --> 00:05:19,020
So many women manipulate through their sex appeal.

64
00:05:19,020 --> 00:05:24,100
The Bible clearly states that our fallen nature means two very bad things.

65
00:05:24,100 --> 00:05:27,420
For men, it means we have to work.

66
00:05:27,420 --> 00:05:32,260
For women, it means they have to suffer the pain of childbirth.

67
00:05:32,260 --> 00:05:37,460
But women have also been tainted since the fall of Eve and Adam with the desire to be

68
00:05:37,460 --> 00:05:44,420
like men, to control them and their environments, and wanting to work like men, even when they

69
00:05:44,420 --> 00:05:47,260
can be most unpleasant.

70
00:05:47,260 --> 00:05:52,460
The Bible states that women want to assert themselves everywhere.

71
00:05:52,460 --> 00:05:59,540
For example, many women are on the vanguard of this oxygendered evil insanity.

72
00:05:59,540 --> 00:06:04,340
Would there even be a drag queen story hour without the support mainly from women?

73
00:06:04,340 --> 00:06:06,700
I seriously doubt it.

74
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:12,900
I say this because biblically speaking, women in general tend to confuse sex roles.

75
00:06:12,900 --> 00:06:15,500
Vikings were aggressive but simple people.

76
00:06:15,500 --> 00:06:21,820
The introduction of Christianity changed them forever, so much so that they eventually ceased

77
00:06:21,820 --> 00:06:23,700
to be Vikings.

78
00:06:23,700 --> 00:06:28,860
But again, being a proud American, I believe to a large degree that we get to live the

79
00:06:28,860 --> 00:06:31,540
lives we choose.

80
00:06:31,540 --> 00:06:37,340
But modern America increasingly is pressuring us to simply go with the flow of the predetermined

81
00:06:37,340 --> 00:06:41,700
current that we are currently streaming down.

82
00:06:41,700 --> 00:06:47,780
The ultra-rich and powerful elites think they know what's better for us than we do.

83
00:06:47,780 --> 00:06:51,260
But a proud Viking would never accept this.

84
00:06:51,260 --> 00:06:54,480
He wouldn't even argue or debate it either.

85
00:06:54,480 --> 00:07:00,020
He would simply sharpen his axe and polish the horns on his helmet, place it upon his

86
00:07:00,020 --> 00:07:07,380
head and proceed to swing his mighty hatchet to remove the offending noggin of the bloviated

87
00:07:07,380 --> 00:07:11,100
bossy carcass that is the deep state.

88
00:07:11,100 --> 00:07:17,060
Many believe that advancements in technology make this global breakdown of society inevitable.

89
00:07:17,060 --> 00:07:19,420
It is not.

90
00:07:19,420 --> 00:07:26,180
When one side takes all the action and the opposing side, by contrast, takes next to

91
00:07:26,180 --> 00:07:32,220
no action, there is bound to be a radical disparity, leading both sides towards the

92
00:07:32,220 --> 00:07:36,400
same conclusion of who the victor must be.

93
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:44,400
But as soon as the pathosist conformists start to discover their true power, then all bets

94
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:53,980
are off, especially when the underdogs have overwhelming superiority in numbers.

95
00:07:53,980 --> 00:07:55,720
Great news, ladies and gentlemen.

96
00:07:55,720 --> 00:08:03,600
We are at the very beginning of this global trend away from globalism and technocracy.

97
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:11,740
The exact opposite of where most of these so-called experts think we are going.

98
00:08:11,740 --> 00:08:16,040
Vikings believed in the survival of the fittest.

99
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:22,220
There were no insane self-destructive impulses like the Western world has today.

100
00:08:22,220 --> 00:08:24,380
They had a harsh system of justice.

101
00:08:24,380 --> 00:08:28,060
Punishment was swift and severe.

102
00:08:28,060 --> 00:08:30,200
Here's the part I really love.

103
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,340
Vikings were offensive, almost romantically so.

104
00:08:34,340 --> 00:08:37,540
They didn't sit around waiting for life to come to them.

105
00:08:37,540 --> 00:08:41,980
They sought and they often found and they conquered.

106
00:08:41,980 --> 00:08:46,860
A favorite stereotype was that they were often victorious.

107
00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:49,080
Vikings were simple and decisive.

108
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,740
There wasn't too much naval gazing going on.

109
00:08:53,740 --> 00:08:57,740
Vikings weren't nerdy or nervous and neurotic.

110
00:08:57,740 --> 00:09:00,480
They were too down to earth for that.

111
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:07,980
They didn't allow themselves to become stupefied by some illogical ivory tower notions of egalitarianism

112
00:09:07,980 --> 00:09:11,380
from spoiled rotten snot-nosed elites.

113
00:09:11,380 --> 00:09:16,820
There was no need for them, so they simply didn't exist.

114
00:09:16,820 --> 00:09:19,520
Vikings weren't PC or woke.

115
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:26,820
They were much too happy to ever want to invent any self-constraining, self-loathing psychotic

116
00:09:26,820 --> 00:09:29,740
mindset for themselves.

117
00:09:29,740 --> 00:09:32,060
Vikings were independent.

118
00:09:32,060 --> 00:09:37,740
They weren't tied into, well, let's check with the overriding authorities for our district

119
00:09:37,740 --> 00:09:39,940
or the HOA.

120
00:09:39,940 --> 00:09:45,380
Most assuredly, they had a village council and local leaders, but the regulations were

121
00:09:45,380 --> 00:09:50,060
either far and few between or entirely nonexistent.

122
00:09:50,060 --> 00:09:56,460
No snooping, no innuendo, no backbiting from their neighbors.

123
00:09:56,460 --> 00:10:02,580
If there was, it would be settled in the town square with or without weapons.

124
00:10:02,580 --> 00:10:04,460
There were no safety Nazis.

125
00:10:04,460 --> 00:10:11,940
If you tripped on your neighbor's walk and fractured something, you were not a victim.

126
00:10:11,940 --> 00:10:14,020
You were a clumsy oaf.

127
00:10:14,020 --> 00:10:16,260
It was your fault.

128
00:10:16,260 --> 00:10:21,420
And if you're so goofy that you can't even keep your balance walking down a step, your

129
00:10:21,420 --> 00:10:28,220
peers probably would tease you and make fun endlessly, sending the strong message to all

130
00:10:28,220 --> 00:10:36,780
that paying attention and coordination are important character traits for being a strong

131
00:10:36,780 --> 00:10:38,260
Viking.

132
00:10:38,260 --> 00:10:42,580
Kids hear this and they learn it and internalize it.

133
00:10:42,580 --> 00:10:49,580
Not having one lawyer for every 20 Viking citizens makes a sharp-edged, masculine, independently

134
00:10:49,580 --> 00:10:54,220
strong and vibrant hamlet.

135
00:10:54,220 --> 00:11:00,740
Having lawyers and attorneys or excuse-makers everywhere would weaken the hamlet, but the

136
00:11:00,740 --> 00:11:04,380
Vikings would have none of that.

137
00:11:04,380 --> 00:11:09,220
Having rules and regulations everywhere was unthinkable to them.

138
00:11:09,220 --> 00:11:15,740
Instead, they wanted to be happy and they insisted upon it.

139
00:11:15,740 --> 00:11:22,900
The very idea of holding one's tongue because it might offend others was repugnant to them.

140
00:11:22,900 --> 00:11:28,540
Truly close-knit communities don't need for people to walk on eggshells.

141
00:11:28,540 --> 00:11:36,740
Open honest exclamations of passions and affections, whether it be for politics or war or friendship

142
00:11:36,740 --> 00:11:44,180
or family or hunting or farming or anything, creates a friendly circle of reciprocation.

143
00:11:44,180 --> 00:11:50,420
People tend to respond in kind if people insist on being their open, honest selves.

144
00:11:50,420 --> 00:11:56,460
Others see this honesty and are attracted to them because their guards are being invited

145
00:11:56,460 --> 00:11:58,700
to come down as well.

146
00:11:58,700 --> 00:12:02,660
It's called just being yourself.

147
00:12:02,660 --> 00:12:09,900
In the modern world, we have something that would be a dystopian nightmare to the Vikings.

148
00:12:09,900 --> 00:12:16,380
Burglars are everywhere, approximately 80% of all homes in most American communities

149
00:12:16,380 --> 00:12:19,980
have doorbells linked to cameras and cell phones.

150
00:12:19,980 --> 00:12:21,140
Why?

151
00:12:21,140 --> 00:12:27,540
Because budget cuts and police forces mean slower responses for burglaries.

152
00:12:27,540 --> 00:12:34,420
That's because local government largesse means expensive, bureaucratic red tape.

153
00:12:34,420 --> 00:12:42,620
Also, silly, idiotic PC laws that bend over backwards to prove that the police aren't

154
00:12:42,620 --> 00:12:49,900
targeting minorities by KKK, cross-burning racist cops, leaves people more fearful of

155
00:12:49,900 --> 00:12:50,900
crime.

156
00:12:50,900 --> 00:12:57,020
And obviously, the drive-by media's frightened rabbit paranoia that they love to push like

157
00:12:57,020 --> 00:13:02,900
a cornered drug dealer showing all of us over and over again what a horribly unsafe place

158
00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:05,260
the world is.

159
00:13:05,260 --> 00:13:13,500
All of this and much more creates an exhausted and shut off and very unhappy civilization.

160
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:19,900
Our frustrations are so immense and so profound and so deep rooted that it seems to the ignorant

161
00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:24,060
that we can never climb out of this mess.

162
00:13:24,060 --> 00:13:30,180
Our problem is systemic, but it's not only systemic.

163
00:13:30,180 --> 00:13:36,100
Humanity fell into this condition in the Garden of Eden, but we've managed to survive all

164
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:39,620
this time without being destroyed by it.

165
00:13:39,620 --> 00:13:47,100
Ultimately, we will fail, thereby winning, but who's to say that time is near?

166
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:53,420
No one knows the day or the hour of Christ's return, so we shouldn't necessarily expect

167
00:13:53,420 --> 00:13:55,920
it with timed precision.

168
00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:03,280
My point is this, humanity has always been a mess, but our situation today is unique.

169
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:09,540
If certain variables are removed, then we can return to a much simpler time.

170
00:14:09,540 --> 00:14:13,480
The Vikings weren't corrupted and spoiled like the woke are.

171
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,860
They had simple mindsets.

172
00:14:15,860 --> 00:14:21,780
Today we're speeding away from the simple at hyperspeed towards the complex, untieable

173
00:14:21,780 --> 00:14:25,860
knot of AI and woke insanity.

174
00:14:25,860 --> 00:14:33,100
A full embracing of these means never being able to extricate ourselves ever again.

175
00:14:33,100 --> 00:14:40,460
Full blown AI and woke both mean losing our humanity and falling forever into a totalitarian

176
00:14:40,460 --> 00:14:43,100
dystopian hellhole.

177
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:46,780
I'm not trying to over romanticize the Vikings.

178
00:14:46,780 --> 00:14:51,700
They were deeply flawed as a culture as all cultures are.

179
00:14:51,700 --> 00:14:58,140
But certain characteristics have been bred out of modernity and we would become much

180
00:14:58,140 --> 00:15:06,020
happier if we simply reached out and snatched some of them back as Viking warriors would.

181
00:15:06,020 --> 00:15:10,340
It's simple awareness followed by decisive action.

182
00:15:10,340 --> 00:15:16,980
Action steps number one, we must think simply and act decisively in our own lives just as

183
00:15:16,980 --> 00:15:17,980
Vikings.

184
00:15:17,980 --> 00:15:21,260
We should never try to over complicate things.

185
00:15:21,260 --> 00:15:28,660
Number two, divinity schools worldwide have been largely infected by woke idiotology.

186
00:15:28,660 --> 00:15:32,840
Only go to churches that speak biblical truth.

187
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:37,140
Also make sure they give reference to Satan and his demons.

188
00:15:37,140 --> 00:15:38,140
Why?

189
00:15:38,140 --> 00:15:42,500
Because Satan is the god of this world and he is the great deceiver.

190
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:49,940
In a world full of PC and woke lies, parishioners need to be aware of these lethal stumbling

191
00:15:49,940 --> 00:15:51,420
blocks.

192
00:15:51,420 --> 00:15:57,040
If they are only taught rainbows and unicorns, they are missing the full picture of the real

193
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,220
world and true salvation.

194
00:15:59,220 --> 00:16:05,100
But before you leave your church, talk to your junior and senior pastors first.

195
00:16:05,100 --> 00:16:10,280
Let them know of your strong opinions and give them a chance to course correct before

196
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,180
you leave.

197
00:16:12,180 --> 00:16:16,040
But you may ask, what's this got to do with being a Viking?

198
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,980
With all their flaws, Vikings were direct and honest.

199
00:16:20,980 --> 00:16:24,300
This is largely absent in the Christian church today.

200
00:16:24,300 --> 00:16:32,540
And remember, Vikings eventually were reformed into Christianity.

201
00:16:32,540 --> 00:16:36,660
You've been listening to No PC Allowed.

202
00:16:36,660 --> 00:16:39,460
I am Mac Iverson.

203
00:16:39,460 --> 00:16:56,260
We will meet again next week and every week.
