Goldy:
Are you trying to get me to say the fourteen words, chat? Is that what this is? OK, he wants me to say--
Robertson: No. It's that-- No, I don't want you, it's just that the chat were asking you to so I thought "well, should I propose that or not?"
Goldy: OK, all right. Do you want me to do it?
Robertson: Sure.
Goldy: We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.
Robertson: Yeah! [laughs]
Goldy: Is that controversial though? Like, I don't see that that's controversial. Is that bad? Like, I think it's controversial to say the opposite. Like, I think it's controversial to say, like, "we must not secure our future and we must not secure the existence." Like, what? Like, that's the whole thing is that once you just think about this, like, very simply and logically you realise that it's not like "ha ha, rah rah" but these aren't sophisticated ideas at their most, like, basest point. Like, we want to survive.

Keep beating that "but so and so have Black/Jewish/Gay/Trans friends/support" line though. History is replete with examples of these alliances of convenience, and some of them didn't go so well *at all* (if you will excuse my euphemism of their fate).
Truly odious.
