"As Alasdair Palmer of the UK’s Telegraph reported way back in 2009, “So it is a mistake to pretend that there is no conflict between principles that are supposed to animate British society – freedom of religion, equality of the sexes, and the primacy of secular law made by democratic representatives – and fundamentalist interpretations of Islam. But much official policy seems to be based on the hope that such a conflict is illusory, and will simply evaporate if we pretend it is not there.” Well, this conflict is still with us, plaguing Western societies at an even greater rate than it was in 2009. And we are still pretending it is not there. We most certainly are living in a nihilistic world. Now more than ever."

Yes, and half of Americans don’t know what nihilistic means and won’t ever know as long as their heads are up their a$$es.

I truly believe that our present nihilism, disfunction and indeed apathy have roots in one thing - our corrupted monetary system.

We have a completely fiat, paper money system, managed by a Progressive-era, soviet style, politicized entity called the Federal Reserve.

The conditions have fallen such that for this brief period, America, as the worlds dominant power, can print all the money, and create all the debt it needs to paper over every perceived problem and social ill, and to pay off every organized group or entity, as well as keep afloat scores of crony-capitalist big businesses.

This means social-engineers and progressive can continue to fund their social engineering schemes - until one day everything collapses.

That is when the nihilism will end.

The disintegrated mode of thought of libtardism intentionally works to destroy man’s mind and values as an end in itself, for the sake of destruction, and not for any specific gain. This naturally leads to nihilism. It started with Kant and has been increasing ever since.
