There's a paradox: it seems undeniable that we must help love overcome ignorance, aggression, exploitation and evil – but it also seems to many of us undeniable that ultimately all is well in the universe and inner peace is the only sane response and worthy aim for the individual seeking to be helpful. I discuss why each is a valid perspective, containing half the truth, and how I feel together they can be reconciled so we get the full picture, the balance.

Welcome back to the podcast, dear friends. After a well-needed break, we are back to the magical portal of intersoul communion via virtual rendezvous. This one is about something very simple and very powerful: Do your thing. Remember that we'll all be dead one day and you want to be able to say you lived on your own terms, that you shone your true colours whether or not others gave you the Van Gogh treatment, and that you offered others your own angle on existence – just by being yourself and doing what comes naturally. There are so many small ways we can do our thing, which will make us so much happier and more alive. And when we all do it, within the laws of love, then it also happens to bring something like world peace. So enjoy!

Sometimes when I tell people about my core three policies – free speech, fair borders, full sovereignty – I feel just a little self-conscious, because I know many people hearing them will automatically jump to the suspicion of racism, anti-immigrant ideology and hatred. None of these are nice things at all! Hence the tension. And yet these 3 Fs are the true point of balance that all societies require in order to flourish in justice, kindness, love and peace. The truth is that being genuinely open-minded often involves things that seem ignorant or dangerous suddenly revealing themselves to actually be the very opposite. Of course, this is not always the case, and sometimes the thing in question really is objectively negative. But we must always strive to keep an open mind and an open heart, to hear people out and let their views merge with and dance with our own, to see if there is anything new to learn. The present video is directed to those who may feel my positions seem a bit uncomfortable as if secretly hiding some nefarious far-right xenophobia – I hope that by the end of the 15 minutes you will see my point of view and agree that there really are fair points to be made on both sides of these very divisive political issues of speech, immigration and sovereignty, and I hope beyond winning your support I will also have kindled a brighter awareness of the beauty of facing our triggers and potential blind spots, in giving other views a chance. We are all branches on the one tree of Life, and I love every human and every nation; even if above all I love my own family and my own nation. This is natural :) But let us honour the diversity of genes around the world, and the diversity of thoughts, beliefs and feelings.

I am standing as an independent in the 2024 Irish general election for Dublin Bay North. I’m a father, teacher, writer and believer in balance. I’ve watched as the Irish government have gone so rogue that almost nothing surprises us anymore. I am seeking election to the Dáil to be a voice of reason, critical thinking, and conscience to guide Ireland back home to a paradigm of fairness, sanity and healthy tradition. My three core policies are to defend at all cost our Free Speech, Fair Borders and Full Sovereignty. Visit https://jamiemcglue.ie to learn more or make a donation. Please help me to help you, your kids and your grandkids. Visit https://fff.irish to see other candidates standing for these three core policies: the 3 Fs.
