Black Lives Matter And Race

George Floyd and Tony Timpa. The horrible murder of the former has set the US on fire, but no one has heard the name of the latter. Both men were unarmed and murdered by police in the exact same way. Tony Timpa was white, so no one cared. It did not suit the fake narrative of police brutality against blacks in America that groups like Black Lives Matter (BLM) perpetuate to a nation of morons who do not care about facts; a group of useful idiots that unwittingly give them power and control. Black lives do matter; that is unquestionable. They are human beings who bear the image of God. But not ALL black lives matter to BLM; they are selective in the cases they use for their race-baiting propaganda and agitation. They are the modern day incarnation of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson; the pre-eminent race-hustlers of this generation.

A few nights ago, David Dorn, a retired black police captain, was gunned down in the riots for trying to stop black looters from stealing TV’s. (WARNING: the video is graphic). His name was not mentioned on CNN, MSNBC, or by any spokesperson for the BLM movement. Black lives matter, but not ALL black lives matter. David Dorn’s murder does not fit the narrative of racism and black persecution. Neither do any of the 23 murdered in 84 shootings in Chicago over the previous weekend; just another regular weekend in the windy city. These lives DO NOT matter to BLM because BLM is an organization of race-peddlers and race-baiters who do not really care about the real issues facing the black community. They are a political organization out for power and control using black grievances as their currency.

By watching all the unintelligent and emotional virtue signallers on social media this past week, it is easy to see how they are so easily manipulated into carrying water for groups like BLM. They throw around terms like “white privilege”, “systemic racism”, “white supremacist”, and “oppression”, without having a single clue about their meanings or origins (For the record, Privilege Theory and Systemic Racism are both myths derived from Marxist ideology and used to guilt people and remove their power. A separate article will appear on that in the future). Young, white, liberal millennials are perhaps the dumbest demographic on planet earth and their posts on social media often border on the comical: “If you don’t post a black square on Instagram it’s because you’re a racist;” “here’s a list of Netflix movies to watch to educate yourself on racism,” etc. They are devoid of knowledge and ignorant of the topic, yet need to virtue signal online for social credit and standing amongst their peers. They would never think to read a book by Thomas Sowell or Walter Williams, two black economists who have written extensively on this issue, and many others, for over 40 years, and present the entirety of the picture of the challenges facing the black community. Millennials aren’t interested in learning, only signalling their virtue to their followers.

Some facts to consider:

–Blacks kill more blacks than whites kill blacks. Blacks kill more whites than whites kill whites. And blacks kill more whites than whites kill blacks. FBI crime stats located here.

–Blacks make up 13% of the US population and commit 53% of all murders and 60% of all robberies.

–In 2019, 1004 people were killed by cops; 235 were black. 41 of the 1004 were unarmed. 19 of those were white, and 9 were black.

–In 2018, there were 7,407 black homicide victims; 70% of those were killed by blacks. Assuming a comparable number for 2019, that would mean those 9 unarmed blacks killed by cops represents only 0.1% of all black murder victims.

–Since 2015, the number of unarmed black men killed by cops has fallen to less than 10 per year.

–Over the past two years, more cops have been killed by blacks than unarmed blacks by cops.

–A cop is 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black man than an unarmed black man is to be killed by a cop. Read that one again.

–Black people get killed by cops at a lower rate than whites.

Until BLM addresses these facts and statistics, we can only conclude that they don’t really care about ALL black lives; only those lives they can use to wield for political power. The predominant narrative of overwhelming violence towards blacks by the police force, pushed by BLM and the media, is not supported by the data and is objectively false. That does not mean that injustices has never happened; it just doesn’t happen at the rate we are told to believe.

On the day of his death, George Floyd was pulled over for using counterfeit money (stealing), which is a crime. His autopsy revealed he had both meth and fentanyl in his system and was driving under the influence at the time; also a crime. Previous to this, he was in jail four separate times; the last time for pointing a gun at the belly of a pregnant woman during a home invasion. If he obeyed the law, the interaction would not have taken place. Stealing should not warrant a “death penalty” but living as a law abiding citizen with minimal police interaction will ensure this doesn’t happen to you. People do not want to talk about the high rate of black crime that leads to these police interactions.

If George Floyd was white, would anyone have cared? The answer is clearly no. This reaction, and the riots than ensued, were a function of the racism narrative pushed by the media and hate groups like BLM. There is not a “pandemic” of police violence towards blacks. The data in no way supports that assertion.

Study after study has been done and the results are always the same. If a person completes high school, gets a full time job, and does not have a child out of wedlock, they have a 98% percent chance on NOT living in poverty; this occurs across all racial lines. That is the simple key to life success. But sadly, in the black community, that is not the reality. In the 1950’s, the black family was more intact than white families. Then something changed. Today, 77% of black kids are born out of wedlock and the incidence of single-motherhood is alarming and crippling to good life outcomes for their children. Fatherlessness is the pandemic affecting the black community, and no one wants to talk about it.

In 2008, Barack Obama gave a speech in a church on Father’s Day. He could not utter these words today for these words are now considered “racist”. No one wants to hear and reflect on the truth. He said in part:

But if we are honest with ourselves, we’ll admit that what too many fathers also are is missing — missing from too many lives and too many homes. They have abandoned their responsibilities, acting like boys instead of men. And the foundations of our families are weaker because of it.

You and I know how true this is in the African-American community. We know that more than half of all black children live in single-parent households, a number that has doubled — doubled — since we were children. We know the statistics — that children who grow up without a father are five times more likely to live in poverty and commit crime; nine times more likely to drop out of schools and 20 times more likely to end up in prison. They are more likely to have behavioral problems, or run away from home or become teenage parents themselves. And the foundations of our community are weaker because of it.

How many times in the last year has this city lost a child at the hands of another child? How many times have our hearts stopped in the middle of the night with the sound of a gunshot or a siren? How many teenagers have we seen hanging around on street corners when they should be sitting in a classroom? How many are sitting in prison when they should be working, or at least looking for a job? How many in this generation are we willing to lose to poverty or violence or addiction? How many?

Yes, we need more cops on the street. Yes, we need fewer guns in the hands of people who shouldn’t have them. Yes, we need more money for our schools, and more outstanding teachers in the classroom, and more after-school programs for our children. Yes, we need more jobs and more job training and more opportunity in our communities.

But we also need families to raise our children. We need fathers to realize that responsibility does not end at conception. We need them to realize that what makes you a man is not the ability to have a child — it’s the courage to raise one.

Wise words indeed. If black lives really mattered to BLM, they would stop the nonsense about police violence and racism and look to heal their community morally from within. It all starts with the family. Improve this first and the problems of crime and poverty will begin to disappear.

Both blacks and whites face challenges; some similar and some different. Life isn’t easy nor is it fair to anyone. No one man is more valuable than another because of certain immutable traits they were born with. To say the black man in inferior or that all white men are racists is the very definition of racism. We should treat everyone with kindness and respect; no matter our differences. We should look to help those around us whose lives are difficult. Stop the name calling. Stop the sloganeering. Stop the virtue signalling. Stop the race-baiting. Look to help those less fortunate, no matter the colour of their skin. It’s really that simple.

This is a must watch:

The Covid Calamity And What China Has Done To The World

Leave a reply

We are now two months into the near global lockdown because of the new Chinese virus, now called Covid-19, and I don’t think the average person realizes what a watershed moment this is for the world. Just the other day, the mayor of Los Angeles, Eric Garcetti, announced his city would continue in lockdown until July 31st, despite having only 1700 deaths and near empty hospitals as of this writing. Here in Canada, the moron in charge (and I say that as politely as I can), Justin Trudeau, has brought Canada to a stand still and has told us that life will never be the same until we find a cure for this disease. “We will not be coming back to our former normal situation; we can’t do that until we have developed a vaccine and that could take 12 to 18 months,” Trudeau has said. “We don’t exactly know how long — we hope it’s earlier rather than later.” Despite not having found cures for diseases like cancer, diabetes, other corona viruses like SARS and MERS, and a host of others, somehow this flu-like ailment is being seen as the pale horse of the apocalypse. It is an overreaction we will never recover from.

I cannot express the anger I feel over what is happening and what those in charge are doing to the people they govern. The policies they are enacting around this “pandemic” are clearly no longer for our protection, but an authoritarian power grab to take away some of our basic freedoms and rights that make us more reliable on the ‘benevolence’ of those who rule over us. These idiots in charge will never suffer the ill affects of the policies they have enacted. They have used fear as a bludgeon to control the masses and increase our dependence upon the state. The world will never be the same again, and this is no exaggeration. It will only get worse from here if we stay on the same destructive path we are on.

President Trump has rightly pointed out from the beginning of his presidency that China is the global enemy when it comes to trade and dishonest practices. They are liars. A communist country can never be trusted because the reputation of the state is always placed above the health and well-being of its citizens. The Trump trade war took its toll on the Chinese economy so they retaliated to crush the global economies of unsuspecting countries by allowing this virus to spread before it told the world. How is it that the virus barely spread to Beijing and Shanghai, China’s two most populous cities, but engulfed the globe in a month? How did it so easily travel around the world yet be contained so quickly within China’s own borders? They did this purposely and with sinister intent to exert global dominance over their rivals which has been the stated goal of China for decades. This was done on purpose, and with malice, by the Chinese government, and the world needs to retaliate. They need to suffer punitive damages for the lives they’ve taken, the poverty they have created, and the trillions in wealth they have destroyed.

This is the evil of communism plainly seen: the reputation of the State is placed over the well-being of its citizens. China allowed the virus to escape from their own virology lab in Wuhan and with the help of the corrupt World Health Organization (WHO), they kept it a secret and allowed it to spread. I did not believe for one second that this started by some random guy eating a bat in a wet market in Wuhan; the Chinese lied about this virus from the beginning. (You can be certain of one thing in this world: whatever the official story is you are being told by any government or their willing accomplices, the media, rest assured the truth is always something other than what you are being told. The governments and media of this world are evil beyond our imaginations and they lie to us daily). There must be punitive measures taken against China in order to repay the trillions of dollars lost due to their dishonesty. China did this on purpose. It came out of their lab and they let it spread. They did this to cripple world economies; to cripple the US economy in particular, so they could become the dominant global power. This was a covert act of war; and this will lead to a future conflict between China and the US.

The reaction of Western nations to this virus is mystifying. Day after day we are told to “follow the science” for what we should be doing. But we are doing anything but. We were told that we needed to stay home to “flatten the curve” and now that that has occurred the goal posts have been moved and we are told we need to stay home until we find a cure. This is absurd on every level and fear is the tool they are wielding to make this happen. These “scientists” have been incompetent and wrong from the beginning. They told us millions would die if we didn’t social distance, yet countries like Sweden that didn’t social distance experienced the same rate of infection and death as those that did. They told us not to wear face masks because they weren’t effective, and now they want us to wear face masks everywhere. They told us you could easily catch it in the air, yet we now know now that over two thirds of all cases have occurred by being locked down with someone infected. They have told us staying in is good for our health when every doctor knows staying in is detrimental to our immune systems needed to fight off infections like this. They told us we needed thousands and thousands of ventilators in order to save lives and now we know that over 80% of the people who went on ventilators died because their bodies gave up fighting and relied on the machine. NY State, under Anthony Cuomo, sent recovering victims back into nursing homes because they thought it was safe. This led to the most deaths anywhere in the US. It was a fatal error in judgment. On almost every recommendation they have been wrong, deadly wrong.

We are a society that has put our faith and trust in “scientists” when this discipline is as incompetent and untrustworthy as any other. Teresa Tam, the top health official in Canada, and also a Chinese national and board member of the WHO, was told on January 15th that the virus could spread from human to human, but she kept this information from the Canadian people to protect China and “stop the spread of anti-Chinese bigotry.” On January 20th, she publicly stated that there was no reason for us to panic over the coronavirus. She needs to be fired and jailed; or at a minimum, deported. The combination of evil and incompetent are not something a society can withstand and still prosper; we need to root it out wherever it exists.

There are sinister men behind the continuance of this lockdown. They are not doing it for the good of the people. The death rate from this Chinese flu is around 0.1%; and the global number of deaths is far less than the 500,000-600,000 people that die from the flu every year. Yet, we are told to stay indoors while our economies crash and businesses and jobs are lost for good. There has already been a spike in suicides and overdose deaths, and this is just the beginning as grief, despair, and hopelessness overtake many. Those ordering the lockdown will never suffer from its adverse affects. We have leaders who, through their actions, are telling us they hate us and that are freedoms are no longer ours. ‘Obey your masters‘ or else. If anyone thinks this is an exaggeration let’s talk again in a year.

“The evil that men do, lives on and on.” (Bruce Dickinson)

This pandemic had barely started and men like Bill Gates (who is not a doctor; not a scientist; is unelected; yet thinks he is here to save the world from disease), Anthony Fauci, and Tedros Adhanom of the WHO were calling for global vaccinations before life could return to normal. “Things will not get back to truly normal until we have a vaccine that has gotten out to, basically, the entire world,” Gates said in an interview. Now, for anyone who has been paying attention, Gates’ personal investments and “charitable foundation” stands to make billions from global vaccines, despite the damage they have caused around the globe (see his work in Africa and India to start). He has invested heavily in the big pharmaceutical companies and has pushed their drugs for two decades now. These are not the actions of someone who cares about the health of people. (He also funds abortions in Africa as part of his stated goal of controlling population growth there, but that is a different discussion). Gates has also stated that everyone will need to carry a vaccination card (or get a quantum tattoo which can hold this information) in order to attend things like concerts or sporting events in the future. This is the ushering in of the authoritarian state using fear and manipulation.

The ultimate endgame of this lockdown is to take away our freedoms and exert greater control over our lives; even more people will now be reliant on government handouts for basic things like food and shelter. Keeping the lockdown going will lead to endless hardships for people. There will be an increase in other diseases, in suicides, and drug overdoses; the death count from these other lockdown factors will dwarf the number of people the virus killed. It is perhaps the worst thing that we can do right now and it shows that our government is not really concerned with the welfare of its people if it keeps extending these policies.

What needs to happen from here is simple. All lockdowns must instantly cease and the people who can work must get back to work right away. The elderly can choose to keep themselves out of harms way a little longer if they wish. Businesses must reopen immediately. Justin Trudeau and Teresa Tam must be held accountable for their treasonous betrayal of Canada; they have not acted in the best interests of their citizens and have demanded things that have hurt our country beyond repair. President Trump must fire Anthony Fauci and the head of the CDC for the egregiously horrible advice they have given us and their continuance in pushing the lies and dishonesty of the WHO.

We are told we will never get back to normal and the longer we stay locked down the more true this becomes. I see the coming collapse of the West and other global economies in the next 15-20 years. Hard times are upon us and harder times are coming. Here are a few things things that I think we’ll see to take us further down that path.

-The cold war against China has already begun but we will see an escalation and perhaps a hot war in the future. If China makes moves against Taiwan, which they have talked about in recent weeks, the world will be at war with China.

-Many more will die because of the lockdown and the new levels of poverty that have occurred than from the virus. Poor economic conditions lead to more death. We will not recover from a crashed economy.

-Disease will flourish. Deaths from cancer, diabetes, and other ailments that went undetected during this lockdown will kill many more people than the Chinese virus did. Our leaders know this but ignore it. They don’t care about our health and that is why this lockdown is not about taking care of us.

-Suicides and overdoses will increase with the rise in hopelessness and despair that comes with massive job losses and a shrinking economy.

-Trump will be re-elected by a greater margin than in 2016 as more Americans begin to realize that he is the only candidate that truly cares about America. The recent emergency funding bill put forward by the Democrats showed greater care for prisoners and illegal immigrants; a staunch and necessary Democratic voting block.

-We will see a global requirement for forced vaccines in order to ensure “safety” and “health” when in reality it will cause even more disease and control over people.

-Social Distancing was, and is, nonsense. Societies that didn’t enforce SD guidelines suffered no greater infection rates than those that did. It will continue to be used in order to alienate people further, keep churches from meeting, and generally stop people from interacting.

-We will see a move away from hard currency to a digital currency in order that all purchase activities can be monitored by the government. Add to this the proliferation of 5G technology and the new global Surveillance State will be fully operational. This is all about control.

-Gun confiscations of ordinary citizens will begin and the last vestiges of freedom will become an old-fashioned idea. Welcome to our Brave New World.

I am generally an optimistic person. But when one understands the nature of man and his propensity towards evil in this world, along with how easily we rolled over and allowed our freedoms to evapourate so easily, the authoritarian society now visible on the horizon is almost an inevitable reality. That is what COVID-19 and China has done to the world.

Random Thoughts #7

1) It should come as absolutely no surprise to those who’ve looked at the research but watching porn kills sexual desire for your partner. It actually delivers the opposite of what it promises over the long term: less gratification and ability to function. If the neurotransmitters in our brain are overused our bodies won’t be able to respond to them in the same way in real life.

2) The birth control pill may adversely affect this region of a woman’s brain. New research shows that it may shrink the hypothalamus which is responsible for activities such as appetite, sex drive, mood regulation, body temperature, sleep patterns, and heart rate to name a few. You cannot fool around with your body’s natural state and not think there won’t be a price to pay.

3) The militant gay lobby in the US is evil. A law has now been passed in California where you no longer have to disclose your HIV status to a sexual partner, allowing it to be freely passed along. If anyone thinks this is ok they are equally evil. One’s health status privacy is not more important than the transmission of a potentially deadly disease.

4) It’s going to be an interesting future as we watch all the potheads in failing physical and mental health. New research shows that using marijuana may change the structure of the heart. There is little evidence that cannabis helps mental health. In fact there is little to no evidence that the benefits that potheads tell us their smoking has, are real at all. Don’t ever believe anyone who smokes for any other reason than to get high. They are all clueless. Any health benefit claim they make is either non-existent or a gross overstatement about what it does.

5) For all those who think they can wait to have their kids and enjoy their youth partying just a little longer, it would appear that the gods of biomechanics will have the last laugh. We know that by age 30, a woman has lost 90% of her eggs making pregnancy after 30 that much more difficult. New research now shows that paternal age negatively affects the attractiveness of offspring as men age. So all those men waiting longer to start their families, get ready for some uglier kids!

What Do You Seek?

Leave a reply

Happiness. Everyone talks about it; everyone wants it. It is not a state of being, but a transient moment that we may experience from time to time. It is unattainable as a permanent mental state, and so very few people know how to find it. The message that bombards us constantly is that if only ‘we had this‘ or ‘we looked like that‘ or ‘we had a better job‘ we would be happy. Some of the richest men who lived died miserable and unhappy. Many of those who seem to have it all, with envied fame or unlimited fortune, make a train wreck of their lives, with failed relationships or the abuse of drugs and alcohol. See any Hollywood tabloid for proof.

Do you want to be happy? Stop looking for it. Be content with where you are, with what you have, and strive for improvement in all areas of your life. Read more. Spend less. Practise self-control. Use your time wisely. Remind yourself daily of this: happiness is not in things. It comes from living a simple life full of great, natural experiences and good people. Put away envy; do not yearn for the things that others have; do not wish for another life. But rather, live as one who makes wise decisions; who foregoes immediate gratification and aims for long term contentment. Pursue virtue. Run from vice. Do this, and happiness will occur naturally. You will wonder what to do with the excess.

Strangers by City And Colour

Leave a reply

Dallas Green of City And Colour has penned what I believe to be the best lyric of the last decade in his 2019 song, Strangers. The second verse goes thus:

We look to the heavens above
For advice on our lives,
Searching for God
In the bottoms of bottles
And in strangers’ eyes.
We’re living in desperation,
Drowning in medication,
Lost in the folly of our age.

-Dallas Green, City And Colour

No lyric that I’ve seen, captures better the empty nihilism and pointless pursuits of this current generation, than Strangers. Now, I have no delusions that Green is religious in any meaningful sense so I don’t think he is referencing God, as in a sovereign being. The verse opens with the following metaphor: ‘We look to the heavens above for advice on our lives’; or in other words, in this directionless age, people look everywhere for meaning and purpose. ‘God’ in his usage (Searching for God…) is a search for meaning. They have rejected the traditional mores of generations past and this dismissal of the old modes of guidance has left them empty and wanting, walking a nihilistic path of despair; always searching and never finding.

They look for significance, as is in our nature as humans to do, in places that only serve to strip real meaning from their lives. They search for ‘god‘ or meaning, in the ‘bottom of bottles and in strangers’ eyes‘ which is in alcohol and casual sex. Alcohol is used as a drug to cauterize hearts and minds from despair and hurt, and they think casual sex with near total strangers will fill the void of loneliness in their lives. What they’ve done is assume lust and love are interchangeable; they’ve wanted to feel a real connection with someone and have realized that sex devoid of emotion, while enjoyable in the moment, has left them more lonely than they ever were before. The pursuit of pleasure on its own is a trap; the more pleasure we garner, the greater our need of it grows, and the greater the void we need to fill. Pleasure as a sole/soul pursuit will empty their lives of contentment when it’s divorced from anything meaningful.

People are living lives of desperation and they’ll use all manner of drugs to help themselves cope; from alcohol to illicit drugs that promise a temporary high but deliver them into addiction and harm, to prescription drugs and anti-depressants, which are being used at alarming rates, to cope with the stresses and anxieties of every day life. Their emptiness drives them and they look to fill it with drugs, alcohol, and sex, to alleviate their pain and responsibility, if only for a few hours, only to find they are left more empty than before. And the cycle repeats itself. They have believed the lie that substances can soothe them, that casual sex can make them feel wanted. But they are left used up, lonely, and addicted with no way out of their nihilism. That indeed, is ‘the folly of our age‘ that they are lost in.

Folly is such an apt word to describe how most people live: foolishly with a lack of good sense in how to live a content and full life. They pursue the short term thrill of alcohol, drugs, and sex at the expense of their long term health and mental well-being. They have nothing to believe in, nothing to guide them; they are functional atheists lost and drowning in their own nihilism. Until they put away the substances that enslave them, and live purposeful vibrant lives with direction, and pursue worthy things of value, their folly will continue to keep them in crippling anxiety, fear, and depression. This is an empty and lost generation and I fear it will take some calamitous events to quell the decadence and return us to a way of life filled with meaning and purpose; with joy and contentment which seems in short supply.

How To Live A Good Life: A Letter To Myself

Leave a reply

It is near axiomatic that life is difficult. There is death, illness, suffering, and hardships; then every once in awhile moments of joy and happiness over take us and we remember that life is good, in spite of the trials we may face. All of us will undergo various ups and downs through life; it is intrinsic to the human experience. When we look around at the world we see record numbers suffering from anxiety, depression, loneliness, substance abuse, and chronic laziness. How did we get like this? Why is it so pervasive? The answers are not simple, they are multi-faceted, but ultimately, we as humans make poor choices that affects the quality of our lives. We choose short term gratification over our own long term prosperity. We choose that which is easy over that which is difficult far more often than we should.

We all have regrets in life, and those who with great bravado say they don’t are liars. But that does not mean we can’t change; that we can’t push ourselves in a different direction to improve our lives. Despite the mistakes of our past, we have today to change our habits and move forward to greater contentment and fulfillment in life. The greatest lie many of us believe is that we are stuck in our current situations and there’s no way out. We can always make changes; we can always improve those things that we’ve failed at before.

For years, I’ve thought long and hard about what it takes to live a fulfilled life. From all my reading and experience I’ve put together a list of things I believe will change an individual’s life for the better if they were able to implement them. Some are easy fixes; others will require some real effort and determination to change. If I, as a 54 year old man today, could write a letter to my 18 year old self on how to live, on how to chart out my life ahead, on the things I should prioritize in this one life I’ve been given, this is the advice I would pass along:

1) Tell The Truth – Dishonesty seems to be the default position of almost everyone today. Be honest. Be truthful. Be a man of honour. Even when it’s difficult and to your own self-detriment. The lessons of life can be hard when we diverge from those things that are good, beautiful, and true.

2) Work Hard – Personal gratification comes from hard work and a job well done. It is imperative that you change your mindset around work, and what it is, in order to avoid becoming an incessant complainer about it. Only through work can we understand the concept of value which informs most of the important decisions we have to make. Push through times of laziness for it can become a chronic condition and keep you from your goals.

3) Make Long-Term Goals – Choose your long term goals first, and then determine the short term goals required to get you there. Spend time reflecting on and contemplating who you are, what you want, and the direction you want your life to take. If you are not purposeful in making a plan it makes it far harder for it to materialize.

4) Save your money – Do not spend your money on frivolous things. If you live beyond your means your life will be stressful. We all like nice things, but save until you can afford it. Debt is a hard taskmaster that will keep you enslaved. Money will not “buy you happiness” as they say; but it will give you freedom that many don’t have.

5) Beware of Substances – Alcohol will control you; drugs will ruin you. They will dull you and not allow you to function how you should. They will keep you from being present and experiencing the fullness of life. The illusion of the short term pleasures of being drunk or high are NEVER worth the long term damage that drugs and alcohol will ALWAYS cause. Substances are for the weak and uninteresting who need a crutch to have what they believe is a good time. Be better than average people; demand better of yourself. Be strong and resolute in not allowing this weakness to overcome you.

6) Happiness Is Not A Goal – Do not pursue happiness as an end goal unto itself for it is subjective and unobtainable. Pursue contentment in every facet of life. Happiness is a subjective state of mind that you can never attain and the pursuit will leave you feeling depressed and down when those brief moments pass. Rather, cultivate contentment no matter your station in life at the time. If you aim to be happy all the time you will most certainly miss the mark.

7) Do Not Look For The Praise Of Others – It matters not what others think of you, except those closest friends and family that love and genuinely care for you. If you do things to garner praise, whether in person or online, you will get caught in the cycle of disappointment and depression. Listen to the words and wisdom of those who love and value you. Our value and worth is not determined by what we look like, by our online presence, or by the accolades of strangers.

8) Read More – Reading is the number one thing that will make you more intelligent and interesting as a person. Read books. Read articles. Read in depth to learn, not for entertainment. Avoid social media. Avoid Twitter. Avoid Netflix. Stay away from video games. Or use them sparingly. They are shallow pursuits that will atrophy your brain over time; they will profit you nothing. The old adage “Garbage in, garbage out” is as true today as it ever was. On your deathbed you will never wish you spent more time scrolling on Instagram or watching more shows on Netflix.

9) Manage Your Time – Time is the most precious commodity we have. You have one chance to build your life into something you can be proud of that brings you a level of contentment very few will ever know. Always be on time for everything. Being late is a sign of selfishness where you signal to the other person that your time is more valuable than theirs. It is a reflection on the person you are.

10) Beware The Pleasure Trap – Pursuing pleasure as a goal will ALWAYS leave you feeling empty when it’s gone. It is like eating candy for dinner; it will taste good at the time but will leave you starving and unhealthy over time. Stay away from porn. It rewires your brain and lowers your testosterone. It will eventually destroy your relationships. Pleasure as a sole/soul pursuit will empty your life of contentment and meaning.

11) Invest Your Time In Important Relationships – Determine the people that are most important to you and spend your time investing in their lives, for it will pay more rewarding dividends than any stock. Our relationships matter more than the things we have or what we do. We are social beings who crave the company of others for fulfillment. Those that neglect this lead extremely lonely lives.

12) Give Of Yourself – The most contented people are those who spend their time and resources giving to others. There’s greater joy in giving than in receiving. It will help guard against narcissism and selfishness. Those that are the most mentally healthy are those that give of themselves and keep their focus on the well-being of others.

13) Acquire Real Treasures – True joy and satisfaction is found in people and experiences, never in accumulating “things.” Things will tarnish, rust, break, and deteriorate over time; the joy they bring will be fleeting. Our consumer culture teaches us that we need this or that item to be happy, to be “in” or “cool” in the moment. Look for times, experiences, and people that move your soul to make you appreciate the time we have here.

14) Learn From Your Mistakes – We all make mistakes. Big ones. Small ones. If you do not learn from poor decisions then you have not grown. We all have regrets; even those that say they don’t, are liars. There are things we cannot change and other things we can make right. Be honest with yourself about the things you’ve done, and be better.

15) Do Not Fear Being A Man – And lastly, embrace your masculinity and never compromise your values. The world will call you toxic; they will castigate you as privileged or entitled. Do not care what they say. There is no time or place to entertain the criticisms of the weak and envious. Men are builders, protectors, strong in will, and kind in disposition. Be that man.

This is not a perfect list, nor does the perfect list exist. Life will be a series of tough learning experiences and moments of great joy. Strike a balance in all things, for moderation will keep you on that straight and narrow path of a life well-lived that few will walk.

Neil Peart (1952-2020)

“Suddenly, you were gone; from all the lives you left your make upon.”
-Neil Peart, Afterimage, from Grace Under Pressure

Today the news reported that the legendary drummer from the band Rush, Neil Peart, died from brain cancer. Celebrity deaths don’t usually move me, but this one is different. I have been a fan of Rush since the age of 12 (1977) and they remain my favourite band to this day. I have seen Rush 45 times throughout my life and can easily repeat the cliche that they were the soundtrack to my life. Since the early ’70’s, Rush has had a cult following like no other band and their musical influence over those that came after them cannot be overstated.

Neil was introverted and shy and did not long for the limelight. He suffered through some family tragedies than no man should go through. He was articulate, intelligent, and a master at his craft; perhaps the greatest rock drummer of all time. The public did not know of his cancer. He was always a private man and remained so until his last day. It is hard to hear that one so talented and prolific, is no longer.

Hirjah And The Undoing Of The West

Leave a reply

It is happening all over the West and no one cares. From an historical perspective, it is an invasion, an act of war; that is how historians will describe it when they look back centuries from now. We are witnesses to the Islamic doctrine of Hirjah unfolding before us, and there couldn’t be greater apathy towards it from those that lead us. This year, 2019, marked the first time that the name Muhammad made the top ten list of boys baby names in America, and I predict it will be in the top three within five years.

Hirjah is the modern Muslim doctrine of emigrating to new lands, out-breeding the native population, and over time, turning that nation Islamic. It is based on Muhammad’s migration from Mecca to Medina in the year 622 AD, where he changed his unimpactful doctrines of a peaceful Islam into a religion of bloodshed and the sword. It was those ruthless years in Medina that gave Islam its growth and political power, as it did not grow at all during those years in Mecca when it was peaceful.

Cultures die when good men apathetically refuse to defend them. For those who have studied and understand the history of Islam, they know that it has only spread and grown through violence and authoritarian control. Unlike Christianity, for example, there has been no peaceful missionary movement that sought conversions through compassionate care of physical needs or the building of needed infrastructure to improve the quality of life of the population as a whole. Islam means submission and it has spread out of fear of death if one refuses to submit. Islam is not a religion and certainly not a religion of peace; it is an authoritarian political movement that seeks control of the entire population of earth.

“Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destroy any government made by man. The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam. Any nation or power that gets in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy. In order to fulfill that goal, Islam can use every power available every way it can be used to bring worldwide revolution. This is jihad.” -Syed Abul Ala Mawdudi (1905-1979), world-renowned Islamic scholar.

Jihad is not peaceful. The practice of Jihad is not optional. Hirjah is the subtle means by which this is occurring right before us. A former Muslim sheds insight into how the lobbyists plan to dominate America. He speaks from a Muslim perspective:

“American laws will protect us. Democrats and Leftists will support us. N.G.O.s will legitimize us. The A.C.L.U. will empower us. Western Universities will educate us. Mosques will shelter us. O.P.E.C. will finance us. The United Nations will cover for us. Our children will immigrate from Pakistan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Indonesia to the US and to the other Western countries. We will use your welfare system. Our children will send money home while they are preparing for Jihad. We will take advantage of American kindness, gullibility, compassion, and freedom of speech. When the time comes, we will stab them in the back…”

The West needs to awaken to the threat in our midst. If we are to preserve our way of life for our children and their posterity, we cannot allow our nations to be invaded; we cannot allow our values to be subverted and our *virtue of tolerance to be taken advantage of. The war is raging right now, and sadly, only one side knows its fighting.

*Tolerance is NOT a virtue. Nor can a society remain in tact if it tolerates evil in its midst. The pursuit of the good, the beautiful, and the true cannot allow for the tolerance of those things that will subvert this pursuit.

Fall Colour Reflection

“I never felt so young before;
There was so much life in me.
Still, I longed to search for more.
But those days are gone now,
Changed like a leaf on a tree,
Blown away forever.”

1) A new study highlights an illness linked to marijuana use. Stories like this will become all the more commonplace as people become more reliant on a substance that is damaging to their physical health and mental well-being. The only real freedoms our government will allow are those that will help destroy the population.

2) We are a society growing ever more dependent upon substances to cope with the difficulties of life. This study highlights how almost 60% of smokers and drinkers would not give up their vices even if it meant adding an extra 10 years to their lives. Imagine that. Giving up the most precious thing we possess: time, for cigarettes and/or alcohol. I can’t think of anything that highlights the power of addiction better than that.

3) As if we needed a study to tell us this as the carnage of the sexual revolution is visible everywhere, but the more sex partners a person has, the unhappier they are. Promiscuity, counterintuitively, leads to a lower level of happiness. People will put their short term gratification over their long term well-being almost every single time.

4) For those that followed the Brett Kavanaugh hearings earlier this year, and the unsupported accusations of a 36 year old sexual assault allegation against him, it appears that now even Christine Blasey Ford’s own father supported Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the Supreme Court and didn’t believe his own daughter. Ford was never credible. I have heard more believable lies from kids with cookie crumbs smeared across their face.

5) Just when you think the social engineers and trans-activists can’t appear any more ridiculous than they already are, animal handlers at a London zoo have vowed to raise the “adopted chick” of two “lesbian penguins” as “gender neutral.” Read that again. These people are ideologues and mentally ill. Our biology is hard-coded into our DNA, and despite the best efforts of the social justice movement to manufacture their monstrous and disastrous outcomes, our chromosomes dictate what we are.

6) To continue on a theme, the very nature of the social justice movement is evil at its core. They care not for people, but for power and control, and this story exemplifies how diabolical and wretched the trans movement is. There is a new show out called Drag Syndrome. Choreographer Daniel Vais has assembled six individuals with Down Syndrome, dressed them in drag, and parades them around as a freak show to enrich himself and normalize deviancy. In a normal society this would be viewed as abusive and exploitive, but in our clown world it’s “empowering” and “liberating.”

7) Why are marriage rates down? It’s a multi-faceted answer but one of the main reasons is the lack of “economically attractive” men. This is what happens in a society that pushes women out into the workforce. Feminism has not only made women unhappier, it’s also helped to create a shortage of marriageable men because studies show that women do not want to marry men that are economically beneath them.

8) And if anyone needed any more evidence as to things making women even more unhappy, this article cites a study from 2011 that said the profile of the person that was most unhappy in society was, “a 42 year old woman who was unmarried, had no children, and was a professional.” Is it any wonder that the rejection of traditional roles and mores has led women down such a bitter path of discontent?

9) The Sexual Revolution was started by men, for men, to the detriment of women. Men could now have greater access to sex with no expectation of marriage. Abortion on demand could absolve them from future financial burdens. What did women get? A greater chance of contracting STD’s and a much lesser chance of finding a stable, committed relationship. Welcome to the world of 2019. But yeah, “traditional values” are for the “losers”. This video is one of the best explanations I’ve seen on what has happened to modern relationships.

The Wave

2 Replies

It is one of the most beautiful and indescribable places I’ve ever been; that I’ve ever seen in real life. Photos never did it justice. The Wave, part of Coyote Buttes North, in Arizona, is a place that you cannot fully explain to people.

What follows is a photo essay of sorts; different images that help convey my experience that day in July.

At midday the storm clouds rolled past giving the landscape an ominous, other-worldly feel.

In the afternoon, sunshine and blue sky pushed the dark clouds away.

The symmetry and design appear as a painting from the Master’s brush.

Every bend and every curve defies explanation.

There is no trail to get there. Landscape markers are the only thing to guide you. It is discretely hidden in the oranges and reds of the Arizona desert.

Crossing through sand, and walking up and down various sandstone formations, I realized why this place had such a strong pull, and permits prized and coveted by those with knowledge of The Wave.

The illusion of lines and curves made every vantage point and angle interesting.

This hike should be atop every hikers bucket list.

Face the storms…

…they will always pass.

Civilizational Collapse

4 Replies

Western Civilization is collapsing all around us and most people barely notice the rubble piling up everywhere. Nihilism, the pervasive ideology of the day, has so absorbed people that they do not even notice the burning edifices of the West all around them. Liberalism, or Leftism, or Progressivism, always leads to the eventual destruction of society as I’ve written about before here. We are in the final stages of civilizational collapse and the West is committing societal suicide as all once-great societies have done in centuries past.

1) Throughout history, all nations have declined morally from within first; weakening them to the point of collapse. The sexual liberation movement of the late 1960’s started our current decline which has been sped up by the full scale acceptance of homosexuality, transgenderism, and now the early defence of pederasty as a legitimate orientation in some circles. Camille Paglia has pointed out that the death throes of a society are normally seen in the open acceptance of homosexuality and transgenderism (androgyny) and the West is no different. When you openly embrace degenerate behaviour and normalize it, a society cannot be saved.

2) Every nation in the world is in debt; a debt so great that they will never be able to pay it off, which leads to the continual devaluation of its currency and the slow erosion of wealth of the average person. Debt, both governmental and personal, inflates asset prices so that life becomes more unaffordable for people as time passes. It separates the have’s from the have-not’s and magnifies the divide between rich and poor. As wealth becomes concentrated amongst the very few and the masses are thrown into poverty and a type of indentured servitude, social order breaks down and becomes increasingly more difficult to maintain. We are already seeing the signs of violent protests in parts of the world as governments enact policies that continue to expand this financial divide.

3) There are currently 102 million Americans that do not work and rely on government assistance for their needs. Approximately 55% of citizens are on some form of social assistance. A nation cannot stand when a minority of workers have to support the majority. The US economy is now a financial Ponzi Scheme that has gutted the middle class. Without a vibrant and productive middle class a nation will not prosper.

4) Over the past 2 years, the US has seen almost 70,000 deaths due to opioid addiction. The proliferation of drug use is a sign of how dark the soul of a society is. When people can’t face the horrible realities around them they turn to substances to numb the pain of their lives. One in eight Americans are now alcoholics. 15-20% are on anti-depressants with that number increasing every year. Nihilism leads to hopelessness, which in turn leads to the need for substances to blot out the pain of dreary and unfulfilled lives. People need transcendent purpose. Without it, we will continue to watch their lives destroyed by drugs, as despair and hopelessness overwhelms them.

5) Homelessness in big cities is making certain neighbourhoods unliveable. Watch this documentary on the homeless crisis in Seattle and observe the problems and policies that are causing the major American cities to rot from within. This is a crisis that continues to grow at an alarming rate, fuelled primarily by drug addiction, and politicians do not care. They do nothing to stop it.

6) We have become a people attracted to the banal and inane and are consumed by entertainment. When is the last time someone told you about a great book they had just read? With more entertainment choices vying for our attention we have countless ways to waste our time. If we further become a people that fills our minds with the latest show on Netflix, or relegate our reading to 140 characters on Twitter, then we will not be a people that advances in intelligence and wisdom. If we think nightclubs, and parties, and other forms of mindless “fun” are worthy pursuits weekend after weekend, then we will become worthless, uninteresting, and boring as a people.

Collapse does not happen all at once, much like the frog that boils slowly in the pot. In the end, collapse happens because people choose to elevate the evil, ugly, and disgusting things in our midst and curse the Good, the Beautiful, and the True. The progressive Utopia that the secularists promised us is what we now see all around us: a dysfunctional society. That is it. This is the best they can do. When the foundation of your house is built on decadence, perversity, and lies, it will crumble. We do not have much time left. The West, as we have known it, is finished.

The Alabama Heartbeat Bill

3 Replies

A few weeks ago, Alabama passed a pro-life bill banning all abortions once a heart beat was detectable in the baby; some time in the first trimester. I’ve written on abortion before and believe it to be one of the most heinous acts we permit in society today. I believe fifty years from now we will look back at abortion as we now look at the slavery of 150 years ago: as utterly unthinkable for normal, moral people.

This won’t be one of the nicest things I’ve written because I truly believe one of the most unintelligent demographics alive today is the unthinking, twenty-something, social media addicted female, that thinks they are somehow empowered by blindly repeating the common narrative about their bodily autonomy fed to them by ugly feminists. The murder of babies inside their mothers is evil and those that agitate for free and open abortion are evil and soulless. And I don’t mean the young, conflicted, pregnant girl with no place to turn; I mean animals like this.

When the Alabama legislation was passed, the pro-abortion crowd on the internet blew up in rage denouncing the legislature as backwards and anti-woman. The pro-abortion crowd isn’t very bright. A lot of young women on various social media sites took to their soap boxes to tell the world and their followers how this was an attack on women, how this was discrimination, how this was the plot of men, blah blah blah. Very few, if any, presented a cogent argument for the extermination of the unborn. (NY state just banned the declawing of cats yet they will now allow the dismemberment and removal of a baby moments before birth on the mere whim of the mother; and the death cult that is the pro-choice movement seems fine with that). We are watching the total inversion of truth and goodness; calling that which is evil, good; and that which is good, evil.

The social media outrage machine was interesting to watch as each and every “empowered woman” felt the need to virtue signal their support for abortion, and in some grotesque way, as some feckless show of solidarity for women. Many weren’t capable of writing anything worth reading and kept to posting memes. There were three in particular I saw quite often and would like to highlight how objectively stupid and misinformed they are.

This first meme simply states, ‘Against abortion? Have a vasectomy.’ The implication of this message is that the only people against abortion are men, which shows the sheer ignorance of those posting it. The pro-life movement is estimated to be made up of approximately 80% women. The Alabama bill was written by a woman and ultimately signed by the Governor Kay Ivy, also a woman. Shrill abortion proponents like to yell at men for all these anti-abortion laws, and admittedly, most legislatures are predominantly men. But the movement as a whole is made up of women who value life because they are the ones who have experienced the miracle of bringing new life into the world. The majority of women are pro-life or want to see lots of restrictions on abortion. This stupid, vocal minority, seems to forget this inconvenient fact.

Another meme that made the rounds was this one that said, ‘My body, my choice.’ Again, those that posted it thought that it was in some way profound. All it really showed was an utter lack of understanding what is at issue. It fails to grasp that there is no longer just one body at issue, but two. In the womb there is a second, wholly independent person, with its own uniquely coded DNA. It is not a parasite, a tumour, a lump of cells, or any other derogatory name the pro-abortion crowd likes to use in order to avoid calling it was it really is, a baby. They have to first dehumanize the baby with these other names in order to make its death more palatable. One of the ironies these women are too stupid to contemplate is that there are now a growing number of sex-selective abortions that almost always target those babies that are female. Where are the women defending the most helpless females of all? Nowhere. They are silent, and they are cowards.

This last meme was by far the most common meme I saw; it was posted everywhere. And it was by a long ways, the dumbest and most ignorant of all. It says, ‘Men shouldn’t be making laws about women’s bodies.’ I really had to wonder if any of the halfwits posting this stopped to think about what they were saying. Do they not realize that there are thousands and thousands of laws on the books that govern what we can and cannot do with our bodies, both male and female? It is illegal to inject oneself with heroin. It is illegal to cause bodily harm to another. It is illegal to commit suicide. It is illegal to get a tattoo under the age of 18. It is illegal to put alcohol into your body before 19 or 21. And the list of laws regulating what can and can’t be done to our bodies goes on and on. All laws are written to regulate what one can and cannot do. The implication of this meme is that it is only men who are against abortion and are trying to ban it in order to control women. Both men and women make laws in order to promote the most good and very many of those laws do pertain to control over our bodies.

These women are stupid. There is no other conclusion to reach. They hide behind euphemisms like reproductive rights, healthcare, choice, and others. They never address the reality of what they are advocating: the murder of another person for their own convenience. Vapid celebrities like Alyssa Milano promote “sex strikes” while many others virtue signal their support for unfettered abortion of any kind for any reason. The free love movement of the 60’s necessitated the legalization of abortion not long after in order to deal with the unwanted consequences that many suffered. If the feminists were honest they would admit how badly they have failed women and the untold harm they have done to women by promoting abortion as the quick, post-coital birth control solution. Millions have been killed and many live lives burdened by the guilt of their choice. Abortion is big business and money drives the entire enterprise. In order to keep the money rolling in you need an army of useful idiots posting memes and chanting vile slogans to try and help normalize such an evil in our midst. And these twenty something millennials are just the idiots they need to keep the death cult in business.

The Game of Thrones Finale

Leave a reply

The Game of Thrones finale seems to have left the majority of people who followed the series feeling empty. Internet petitions have been started to ask HBO to redo the final season as the disappointment appears to be quite widespread. I too, found the last episode to be an unsatisfying way to end this series. Let me first say that the production quality was incredible and had the feel of a big budget film. Some of the imagery alone captured certain moments perfectly and the speeches by Tyrion Lannister and Jon Snow showed moments of brilliant writing. But sadly, Hollywood couldn’t help but flex their progressive bona fides in the wrap up of the series.

Humans love great stories. Stories speak to us in ways few other things can. From ancient tales to Biblical stories; in modern classics like The Lord of the Rings and the first three Star Wars movies, great stories resonate with the human condition. All of life is the battle between good and evil, both from within and without; and there is something innately satisfying about seeing justice done and good prevail. Men want to see good triumph over evil in a world where we are too often reminded that too much evil exists.

I couldn’t help but see how the typical progressive mindset of Hollywood writers set about to destroy what most yearned for: Jon Snow upon the Iron Throne. Snow embodied a great leader and king. He showed unwavering integrity and loyalty; he cared not for himself but for his family, friends, and the people under him. He did not desire the throne for the power that came with it, which made him the perfect person to sit upon it and rule justly.

Instead, the writers saw fit to split the Seven Kingdoms and allow The North to stay independent with Sansa as their Queen, because, well, women can be great leaders too, I guess. Rumour has it that various spin-offs are in the works but the entire series was about uniting the Seven Kingdoms under one ruler and that didn’t happen. It seemed far too obvious that the writers wanted to virtue signal their support for female leadership despite Sansa being the “birthright ruler” earlier scenes in the episode railed against; specifically Tyrion’s speech to the council. The other six Kingdoms were given to Bran Stark, the young crippled boy with magical powers. Bran really showed no leadership characteristics throughout the series and seemed to be an empty, safe, and uninspiring pick for King.

Jon Snow deserved the throne. He was the only good leader throughout the series. Strong leaders with integrity are looked down upon in this day and age while weaker, effete leaders seem to be lauded (think Trudeau and Macron).

People were left feeling disappointed because deep down they want to see good triumph over evil and good men prevail. These are the oldest and most cherished of human stories. Only the best stories survive down through the ages and they typically end with evil being vanquished because that is the deep yearning of humanity; that good prevails and the evil around us done away with for good. People may not understand why the ending of the Game of Thrones left them unsatisfied because we live in a world that tries to invert good and evil and we’ve begun to accept this inversion as normal. Most still want to see good prevail and justice done. Only Jon Snow upon the Iron Throne would have made things seem right and order in the Seven Kingdoms restored. We got something far less than that.

Delicate Arch

Delicate Arch in Arches National Park, Utah, is one of the most incredible naturally occurring phenomenon in the world. One cannot help but stare at it endlessly and wonder what it took for this rock formation to occur. Countless years of wind and rain have pounded against the orange sandstone to form this amazing natural structure; a reminder that adversity in hard times creates those things that can stand strong.

1) Studies show a link between abortion and breast cancer. Women who’ve had an induced abortion have a 151% greater chance of developing breast cancer. Leftists promote unfettered access to abortion at any stage and and then promote endless campaigns to fund breast cancer research. There appears to be an easy way to reduce cancer deaths.

2) America is irreversibly in debt and unfettered immigration since 1965 has led to much of it. Does anyone think this end’s well? The only relevant question is this: How many people from the Third World do you want in your neighbourhood when the money runs out? What will happen then? What has history taught us about forced “diversity” in the past? Answer: there will be war. It never ends well.

3) At what point do we have to start shaming all these disgusting “lifestyle” choices as perverse and abnormal? Once we allowed the normalization of homosexual relationships, or any relationships outside of our biological, procreative norm, we opened the flood gates to all the human aberrations. Shame was once a strong behavioural deterrent. We mustn’t allow these things to flourish unchecked and unmocked.

4) Colour me surprised on this news: Pot smokers have sicklier babies. If men smoked pot between 11 and 90 times in their lifetime, which by today’s standards is not a lot, their children had a 15% decrease in birth-weight. For women, it was a 12% decrease. It is part of a destructive personality to place greater importance over short term pleasure than long term satisfaction.

5) During a presentation at Google recently, the word “family” was used by the presenter and it caused a meltdown amongst a certain group of weak, social justice employees. The word was used in such a way as to link the word ‘family’ with ‘children’, which they believed was ‘homophobic’. They hate the nuclear family and the goodness it signifies. Google is evil. Signs of societal decline are all around us for those paying attention.

6) The Olympics have been officially converged and will fade from the public interest over the next few decades as they recently announced they will allow transgender athletes to compete as the opposite sex. A biological man can now put on lipstick and compete against biological women. Where are the feminists complaining that the efforts of real women will be largely relegated to non-medal placements as biological men scoop up all the rewards? Sit back and laugh at the nonsense to come in the great Olympian sideshow!

7) In the “racism is alive and well” file, the UK government is now encouraging the punishment of universities for giving black students lower grades, for they believe the role of a university is to promote diversity and inclusion rather than learning and excellence. Schools that do this will become largely irrelevant as they “graduate” useless students with no learned skills for the real world.

Abortion: Evil In Our Midst

Leave a reply

In 1973, the right to have an abortion was suddenly found in the Constitution as “Jane Roe”, or Norma McCorvey, fought for the right to have her baby removed because it was the product of rape. It was a lie. Years later, McCorvey admitted that she was never raped. But the damage had been done and the path was created for the extermination of millions of babies in the decades to follow for nothing more than the mere whim of the mother.

What started as a legal challenge based on the most extreme of circumstances: rape and the emotional trauma that comes with that, has now morphed into abortion as post-coital birth control. We were told it would be rare, and yet now it almost seems a rite of passage for the “empowered” woman. Rather than using birth control, some women now have multiple abortions as if it were nothing.

The movie Gosnell: The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer recently introduced us to one American abortion doctor’s clinic that became a gruesome shop of horrors. Dr. Kermit Gosnell would deliver babies alive and snip their spinal cords with scissors or puncture their skulls while still breathing and alive. Their lifeless corpses would then be thrown in the garbage or put in one of his many freezers. Fully birthed babies were murdered, and this goes on everywhere and kept hush by those who make millions in this lucrative industry.

In the last several weeks, the leftists have taken their love of abortion to new depths. First, the New York State legislature stood and cheered as they legalized partial birth abortion which occurs late in the third trimester when the baby is fully formed, can feel pain, and is viable outside the womb. And if that wasn’t bad enough, later that same week, Governor Ralph Northam of Virginia went on radio to explain a new bill in Virginia that would allow mothers and doctors to let a baby die after it had been born, depending upon what the mother decides at that moment. Watch:

It’s hard to grasp the magnitude of such barbarism where a vulnerable, autonomous human being, is left to die (well after the “my body, my choice” argument could even be made). The Democrats and leftists are now a murderous death cult and should be described and shamed as such as they continue to try and codify infanticide into law. Here is Kathy Tran the Virginia lawmaker introducing her abortion bill in the legislature:

Ironically that same day, she introduced a separate bill that would protect the Fall Cankerworm, an insect, by “prohibiting spraying during certain months.” Think about that for a moment and let the abject evil of leftists sink in: one bill would allow for the murder of babies moments after birth, to be discarded like medical waste, while the other bill would seek to protect the “lives” of worms. This is indefensible on any level.

Just yesterday, US Senate Democrats blocked the passing of the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act which would have provided care for children born alive after a failed abortion. Think about that for a minute. When a child is born alive after a failed abortion attempt, now breathing and autonomous outside the womb, Democrats and leftists support allowing the baby to go uncared for until it dies. This is beyond sick and twisted and is rooted in evil so dark and inhumane that it needs to be decried at every turn. This is no longer about a “woman’s body” and what she can do with it; this is about infanticide.

So the next time a leftist wants to moralize about Trump’s fitness for office, or gun ownership, or someone’s opinion on gay marriage, remember that they are devoid of any moral footing and should not be taken seriously if they support the termination of human lives.

I know of no other evil accepted and promoted so callously and matter-of-factly. Abortion is evil and those who promote it, and advocate for it, are evil. We can’t couch our words in colourful platitudes, we must call it what it is. To leftists, the only thing more precious than a newborn baby, is the right to kill it.

1) A Canadian Islamic cleric in British Columbia released a video in which he instructed his Muslim followers that wishing a “Merry Christmas” to non-Muslims was worse than murder in Allah’s eyes. Islam and the West are incompatible. Christianity and Christian traditions were one of the three pillars of Western civilization and we are weakening the under-girding structure that made us great by allowing a destructive and evil Islam to take root in the West. We must stop all immigration from Islamic countries if we wish to maintain a peaceful way of life.

2) Social media causes greater rates of depression in young girls than it does in boys. Around 25% of women take anti-depressants. Social media, alcohol, casual sex, and educational pressures have all contributed to this mental health decline in females over the past 50 years thanks to a feminist narrative that continues to harm women far more than it helps them. If we really cared for our young girls we would teach them and train them to return to their traditional feminine roots.

3) If we listened to the feminists and their allies lecture us about discrimination you would assume many women were still facing horrific problems like they were in 1819, not 2019. But a new study shows that globally, men face worse discrimination than women and have greater problems to overcome.

4) In a study that should have been subtitled, “I could have told you that,” physically weak men are more apt to be liberals while strong men generally have a propensity towards rightward thinking and conservative values. Falling testosterone levels and social justice nonsense are responsible for a generation of weak and effeminate men that have allowed Western nations to go soft. These XY-chromosoned humans are “men” in name only as they live in shame of their masculine birthright. They have been feminized by a society that hates them and wants nothing more than for them to remain weak. The pendulum needs to swing back, and fast. And when it does, when real men rise up and say enough, it will be ugly.

5) White privilege. Male privilege. Now thin privilege. Privilege Theory is a derivative of Marxism and should be rejected outright. It tries to make equal those things that are not, and never can be. That thin and attractive girl over there is not your problem; the third donut you had for breakfast though, just might be. Shaming others for taking care of themselves is the weak persons way of absolving themselves of their own destructive behaviours and placing blame where none is due. Privilege Theory allows one to vindicate themselves of personal responsibility and place blame on others for their immutable and unchangeable characteristics, or their discipline and hard work.
