Kinsella emphasizes the importance of empathy and cooperation in achieving a harmonious society, while also critiquing the inefficiencies and corruption associated with state power.

In this episode of The Covered Call, we sit down again with Jayant Bhandari — one of the most provocative and intellectually fearless thinkers we’ve had on the show.
In our first conversation, Jayant challenged us to rethink freedom, truth, and the cultural foundations of civilization. Since then, we’ve joined him in Vancouver at his Capitalism & Morality conference — where voices like Rick Rule, Maxime Bernier, Stephan Kinsella, and Amy Wax pushed the boundaries of honest debate.
In this new episode, Jayant expands on those ideas — warning that the West is moving toward instability and civil conflict, not because of external enemies, but because of a thousand small compromises eroding trust, discipline, and cultural coherence.

We discuss:
* Why homogeneity — not diversity — underpins stable, high-trust societies.
* How political correctness turned schools into propaganda machines.
* Why China’s rise is cultural as much as economic.
* What India’s decline reveals about leadership and social philosophy.
* And why truth-seeking demands both financial freedom and moral courage.

Jayant’s insights are controversial, sharp, and difficult to ignore. Whether you agree or not, this conversation forces you to confront uncomfortable realities about the world we’re living in — and the civilizations we may yet lose.

Lovis & JasonPS.: This episode was released with about 2 months of time delay. Since a certain important character is mentioned several times, we thought it prudent to let the heat of the discussion die down. This is self-censorship, make no mistake about it - and we are not proud to do it! But rather than editing it out, we thought this was a way to have our cake and eat it too.
