That second video: great minds truly think alike, because I stumbled across that before my XO megapoasting / megareading days somehow, and she's like Cornflower of Redwall come to life: pure feminine wholesomeness, a soul overflowing with music.

And she reminds me so much in her aesthetic of an Eastern European girl I knew in college, who would alternate because telling me how great I was, and telling me how I would never last for a second in the real world, AKA without a trust fund safety net (probably true).

Evokes the deepest longing for the light and joy that C.S. Lewis tried so valiantly to describe in his writings.

...he was always the first to gently but firmly correct anyone in our Yankee UMC suburbia, including some lovable but misguided family friends, that if you ever think of Southern traditions as "Low Status" (read: not cosmopolitan enough), then you are revealing your genuine lack of culture.

(Cosmopolitans are all image, no substance, as we know. Chesterton frequently said that to defend oneself from a cosmopolitan Empire is one of the basic rights of humanity; and Lord of the Rings, for instance, is traditional homogenous nations uniting against that threat.)

Including absurdities that read like Tom Wolfe satire, e.g., worshipping (literally) retarded and casually psychopathic blacks and/or 3rd world criminality in general, while simultaneously sneering at the "anti-intellectual" and "intolerant" culture of poor white Southerners.

Another funny thing while we're on the subject, which you and I have talked about before, is how I have a good amount of old-fashioned "live and let live" "social safety net for unlucky working people, widows and orphans" libs in my family tree (who fell for the seductive camel's nose rhetoric, just as many decent people sadly did)...

...and it's hilarious looking back to the time before White Man Bad became the standard lib dogma - and especially Blue Collar White Man Bad, as Charlton Heston observed - back when left (at least in the eyes of the lib rank and file; of course the elites have always been scheming globalist psychopaths) vs. right meant:

"In favor of central government support for working class whites" vs. "In favor of voluntary charity support for working class whites" (Frank Capra and John Wayne types tried to warn us in the FDR days about the bureaucratic aka passive aggressive centralization of power, and we only had to listen...)

ONLY rural America will survive intact imo, not necessarily under the same flag but same ethnic identity and cultural heritage. Church is entering another monastic age of purge and renewal.

...VS. the dismantling of, or at BEST indifference to (indifference being the great scourge of our times, Jim Caviezel says), all of these God-given gifts...
