When, and if, a people become too civilized to do whats necessary to survive in an uncivilized world, as Western Civilization seems to have done, we simply wont survive, we dont deserve to survive, and good riddance.
We, as a people, have failed to realize that survival of the fittest is still being contested here on the third planet, and when you, your family, and your peoples survival are threatened, the proper response in an uncivilized world is to eliminate that threat even if it requires killing every man, woman, and child of the enemy that threatens your survival.
Simply put: If you are too Civilized" to do what's necessary to survive in this uncivilized world, you don't deserve to survive, and you won't.
Well put. Thank you.
This is neither the pretense of a civilized culture nor is it civilized. It's lethargy. We just don't care enough to do the job.
After 9/11 our motto was "never forget." That lasted about 15 minutes. Our very own Traitor In Chief lectured us that this satanic religion was a "religion of peace" and he was a liar.
We're not civilized. We're stupid and lazy.
