But these are not the same as the original video. The original has nice footage of Solzhenitsyn himself, which I liked.
Youngsters are used to fight wars because their minds are blank slates, easy to indoctrinate with any belief system. There is no limit to what you can indoctrinate the mind with.
A good example of the limitations of rationalism.
See, Tyson thinks he's being clever, rigorous, and logical here. Mr Scientist Man. But he's actually saying biased human slop. God doesn't care about human feelings about hurricanes and volcanoes. This is only a problem for an ego that believes in death. But his big brain has never considered this possibility. And if I told it to him, he would use that big brain to invent some scientific excuse to not take it seriously.
Neil DeGrasse Tyson is a kid who dressed up as a scientist for Halloween and never took off the costume. It's an act. But he thinks it's real.
The only reason Tyson is so clever is because he's never spoken to a person like me. I would demolish his entire worldview. But he seems impressive to laymen who don't understand what science is or any epistemology or ontology.
This is what I mean by self-deception, by Maya.

A must-watch documentary about the OG Fascist.
Here's the main lesson from Fascism: It always starts in arrogant bluster about strength, performative displays of machismo, but in the end the Fascist proves weak and destroys himself. Fascism is the fantasy that men are strong when they are weak. You cannot achieve strength through bluster. True strength comes from surrendering your ego to God, not puffing up your chest, sticking out your chin, and acting macho. Macho men are all weak. The truly strong man is the Philosopher who grounds himself in Truth and doesn't need to bluster about how strong he is.
Fascism is the illusion of strength. Fascism is weakness.
A real Philosopher would see that. Real Philosophy is just seeing through illusions. Fascism is like a rat chasing down an imaginary piece of cheese.
