It Took 2,500 Years, But The West Is No Longer A Serious Place

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Our troops wear high heels, we celebrate deviancy, value emotion over rationality. We are teaching our children how to have anal sex while decrying the culture that has created the greatest advances in human history, and then wonder why buildings and bridges fall down, our college graduates can't find America on a map, our political class is a dangerous embarrassment, we are destroying modern life's advantages in favor of returning to a pre-industrial world, all in service to a nonsensical pseudo-scientific crusade against some mythical warming trend.

Is it any surprise that Western culture is rapidly devolving into a caricature of itself? 80 years ago Alan Turing and a few others broke the Nazi Enigma code, and they kept that secret to the Allies' great advantage for the next four years of World War II. But today?

BUS STOP DIPLOMACY Top secret Ministry of Defence documents on HMS Defender & British military found at BUS STOP after Black Sea stand-off

TOP secret MOD documents containing details about HMS Defender and the UK military were found at a BUS STOP in an embarrassing blunder.

The explosive papers were found in a "soggy heap" behind the bus stop in Kent on Tuesday morning, a day before Defender was involved in a stand-off with Russian boats in the Black Sea, a report says.

40 years ago the pope spoke forcefully and unequivocally against the monstrous evil of Soviet communism. John Paul II understood how totalitarianism destroys the human soul as it shrinks free will and freedom, and he wasn't afraid of the consequences. But today?

Vatican Foreign Minister to Epoch Times: Church Has No Positive Contribution to Make in Hong Kong

Since the renewal of the Sino-Vatican Deal last October, Pope Francis—who has been extremely outspoken on other human rights and ecological crises—has been silent on China and Hong Kong. The Chinese Communist Party’s brutality and human rights violations, both in mainland China and in Hong Kong, have caused world leaders—such as former Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo—to call for the Vatican to end its “preliminary” deal with China.
Is there a greater evil on earth? According to the dissolute West? Plastic straws and incorrect pronouns and mean tweets are worse than the systematic destruction of freedom and autonomy in Hong Kong. That the Vatican is leading the capitulation to China is particularly vile, since China is particularly aggressive in its attacks on religion.

At its best, the papacy can be a moral lodestone, drawing like-minded people into a critical mass. Not every pope has the intellectual and moral force to do it, but actively pursuing the opposite is an insult to the great men who came before the current occupant of the Vatican.

It would be one thing if the entire world was descending into this insanity, but it is just the wealthy and lazy and unserious West that is becoming a mockery; its enemies to the east are quite willing to fill the void with their particular brand of evil.

Coincidentally they were the only tournament that purchased Pandemic insurance and were paid over 400 million because they had to cancel.

The key is to remember that they don't have to win. Like the Giuliani stuff, they only have to influence. Twenty years from now is when they'll win, and they're fine with that. Unlike the Republicans, they will continue until they succeed, and "success" to them is actually accomplishing what they say they'll do.

Of course. Eternal truths are called that for a reason. Ignore them at your peril. Here we are. This too, shall pass. It's sad to watch, but it has to happen. If you can't change it, then just do the best you can with it. I guess it's what is sometimes namby-pambily called the "grieving process," but on a society-wide scale... I've accepted that it's over, and all you can do is cherish the memory and try to pick up the pieces.

The explosive papers were found in a "soggy heap" behind the bus stop in Kent on Tuesday morning, a day before Defender was involved in a stand-off with Russian boats in the Black Sea, a report says.

The butterfly effect, and how the socialists won.


Driving wedges between the various demographics was their strategy, dating back to the Comintern of 1945. The Soviets knew only too well how ethnic diversity could pose a problem, and essentially stoked ethnic divisions here to weaken us.

Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula was ceded to Britain in perpetuity. It was the "New Territories" on the mainland that were leased.

138 Only saw a snippet, but in it, Barr claims (or the author twists) that Barr made some specific point about Trump votes in Wayne County that countered the idea of large fraud. Even the point alleged doesn't mean what is implied (Trump did better than 2016 = no fraud), but the general implication is ridiculous. The vote patterns in several states, and between like demos in different states, are unprecedented, and cannot be seen without enormous suspicion.

This is leaving aside the eye-witness accounts of clearly unreliable practices at the counting center, or the ridiculous middle-of-night vote dumps, whose %s for either candidate were completely implausible.

But as before it's about impossible to find a detailed disassembly of the alleged points made by Barr, as almost all reaction is the standard empty stupid sloganeering and bumper-sticker-level invective.

147 We've had the Cold War, this is the Soft War. Asymmetrical and non-violent.

Not targeting industrial centers or battleships, but instead infiltrating America's cultural institutions and destroying the people from within. Cultural Crack. You think it's coincidence that Luke Skywalker was degraded into a creepy old guy who sucks green milk from the teats of some space cow? They are bribing our leaders with the money we paid to Walmart.

Same with Covid. Whether or not it was released by accident, it was intended to be a weapon of mass destruction that America could not justify a retaliatory strike for. You're going to start global thermonuclear war over an accident?

Someone posted last week that the Marxist Left has been busted with a User Manual on how to disrupt and spike online discussion groups. If you were to infiltrate Antifa you would probably find their studies on how to turn the IKEA Customer Help Line into a propaganda arm for Post-Modern Neo-Marxism.

Whether it's Antifa at your local school board meeting, or China on the global stage, the tactics are the same. A soft war that we won't defend against with actual violence because "that's not who we are".

The problem is, and I've learned this with my lefty daughter, that, you can point to any number of problems created by government corruption and they'll never understand just how corrupt Newsom and this state has become under Democrat rule. They'll acknowledge there is a problem, think it is stupid, but never connect government with the problem.

I worry about the unions, the zillionaires, and wholesale electoral fraud.

Absent these things - which unfortunately we are not - I think Newsom would be toast.

Not just COVID, but wildfires, brownouts over the summer, the vagrancy problem, water restrictions, and of course the French Laundry fiasco all make him unpopular.

The wildcard will be wildfires and brownouts. If the drought continues, and we get some brownouts/complete blackouts, Newsom got a serious problem on his hands.

OK, I'll give it a shot. To believe that nonsense, you'd have to believe:

1. That Obama had a "stash"
2. It was big enough to pay the bills of tens of millions of people
3. Obama would part with his "stash" out of the goodness of his heart
4. And he could continue doing this indefinitely, since bills will come in again next month, if my guess is correct.

183 I may well have no idea what people think of Newsom, given my "news" blackout and fanatical avoidance of anything remotely "political" with the mostly clueless people I know. But I don't think there's even a tiny chance of him being booted. I have seen no evidence of any kind that the massive vote (real or fraudulent) centers of population are aware or, understand, or care about the decline and idiocy they have systematically *voted into existence*, for decades.

Not that much different than most of the country. A few jurisdictions have slight majorities of those who for whatever reason do not support the decline. But the collapse is systemic, institutional, and partly a result of trends long in existence.

You're bringing me down! A lot of small business owners up here in North County are seriously seriously pissed at Newsom.

How representative they are, I don't know. But I have hope that we'll boot his ass out in the recall.

The big wild card in the recall election: is whether the Dems let one of their number run. That might split the Newsom vote. OTOH, if they don't let any Dem run, they risk getting a non-Dem, maybe even a Republican, as governor.

What to do?

204 Ugh, just back from the pharmacy with my daughter. We had to wait a long time at the counter, and conversed with a WuFlu true believer. She was there for her WuFlu test - she told us proudly she gets tested 5 times a week, because she goes to visit her 92-year old mom in a care home. She's also had both shots, and her mom has had both shots. But she just doesn't want to take any risk. She was shocked when I flatly said I hadn't had the shot, as we're in the same age range (60s). This is why I don't like going into public anymore. At any moment you can be confronted by health lunatics like this.
