What a delightful passage. A handful of random thoughts and comments.
- I do not consider myself a good writer, but I attempt to make myself better by paying attention to certain grammatical bad habits e.g., ending a sentence with a preposition. Being cognizant of lazy writing will hopefully make me a better speaker.
- When thinking about modern art/DEI/ESG, the quote from Theodore Dalrymple comes to mind which states, "Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”
- Political street artist with cajones grandes https://unsavoryagents.com/ One does not have to agree with his message to respect his desire to speak his mind.
Jewish messianism has been spreading its poisonous message among us for nearly two thousand years. Democratic and communist universalisms are more recent, but they have only strengthened the old Jewish narrative. These are the same ideals . . .
The transnational, transracial, transcultural ideals that these ideologies preach to us (beyond peoples, races, cultures) and are the daily diet in our schools, in our media, in our pop culture, in our universities and on our streets, have reduced our biosymbolic identity and ethnic pride to their minimal expression.
Judaism, Christianity and Islam are death cults that originated in the Middle East and are completely alien to Europe and its peoples.
Sometimes one wonders why the European left gets along so well with Muslims. Why does an often openly anti-religious movement side with a fierce religiosity that seems to oppose almost everything the left always claims to stand for? Part of the explanation lies in the fact that Islam and Marxism share a common ideological root: Judaism.
Don Rumsfeld was right to say, "Europe has shifted on its axis," the wrong side has won World War II, and it is becoming clearer by the day . . .
What has NATO done to defend Europe?
Absolutely nothing.
My enemies are not in Moscow, Damascus, Tehran, Riyadh or some ethereal Teutonic bogeyman, but in Washington, Brussels and Tel Aviv.
I really enjoyed this article. I was particularly struck by:
"Everyone is talking, everyone is selling a product which promises to change your life, everyone is demanding your undivided attention — and they have nothing, nothing to say. "
And also "avoid painful realizations" in this sentence:
"Average people fear discomfort, crave validation, avoid painful realizations, and remain deeply unsatisfied with their lives."

It is odd that the idea of woke washing a film is to literally swap the characters from male to female without changing the story.
- Capitalism is always the culprit and at this point it is becoming boring.
- I'll check out T. R. Hudson's book. I have an addiction to buying more books than I can possibly read.
You will enjoy his book, it's very fun and it starts with a brutal, fast-paced opening
