Traditional Europe going the way of the dodo bird thanks to leftism.
In 2006, notable Canadian conservative, Mark Steyn, authored a book titled America Alone. He argued that the values and cultures of the Western world were being erased by population booms among third-world Muslim demographics — aptly named Islamic imperialism. From the back cover of the book:
Someday soon, you might wake up to the call to prayer from a muezzin. Europeans already are. And liberals will still tell you that ‘diversity is our strength’ – while Talibanic enforcers cruise Greenwich Village burning books and barber shops, the Supreme Court decides sharia law doesn’t violate the ‘separation of church and state’ and the Hollywood Left decides to give up on gay rights in favor of the must safers charms of polygamy.
Steyn starts out by discussing the impacts of demographic decline, particularly in Mediterranean Europe. To maintain a population size, 2.1 live births per mother are required. At the time he wrote this in 2006, Greece was at 1.3, Italy was at 1.2, and Spain 1.1. According to Steyn, a fertility rate right below 1.3 is what demographers describe as the “lowest low,” a rate “from which no human society has ever recovered.”
Steyn follows these data tidbits with his assertion that “the unsustainability of the advanced Western social-democratic state” is the next contributing factor in the Western replacement — he’s referring to the welfare state.
Published just over a week ago, Free West Media ran an article which covered a “revealing trend” — more foreign refugees were gorging at the trough of the Austrian taxpayers than native Austrians. In the state of Tyrol, 52% (41% were refugees, with another 11% being “third-country” nationals) of social assistance recipients were foreigners.

The left seems to hate all religions except islam, with allah, the master of deception.
It’s happening here too. Whites and the West are doomed. Of course the Left has been incredibly successful convincing people(read that Whites) that race doesn’t matter unless of course you are non white then it matters a great deal. Whites are like deer in the headlights as the West is getting destroyed.
They’ve been telling us for decades that colonialism is bad. Moving into some indigenous society and acting like you, the outsider, just own the place, is arrogant and evil. You can’t just take over. You need to respect the people and the culture that were there before you.
What’s happening in Europe and in America is not colonialism. But the demographic change is similar. But, of course, it’s not evil when the Left does it. Destroying Western Civilization and replacing it with the primitive culture from the homeland that the invaders have left behind? It would be racist to disapprove.
Because saying out loud what most are thinking has historically been unsavory.
One thing to consider though is that, IIRC, there are studies showing that even Muslims are not immune to declining fertility rates. Women from such families whose parents immigrated to somewhere in Europe or the U.K. are living lives that much more secularized and are having that fewer children. To that certain extent, I tend to take Steyn with a grain (or even two grains) of salt.
This has been the goal of the postmodern Marxists for a very long time.
What the European Left has wished Westerners to ignore is that the Ba'ath party of Iraq and Syria and others elsewhere are based in socialist thinking. Such socialist thinking is NOT about welfare policies, but about power to the "dictatorship" of and over the proletariat. Being ideological, ethnic identity is unimportant per se to those who hate the West and its centuries of cultural growth.
The foolish European Left thinks they will be able to control Islam and pervert it to their goals. The inverse is showing to be the reality. That reality is both demographic and cultural. Pity Europe, which will "care" itself into oblivion.
As Shelley wrote and warned:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; / Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! / Nothing beside remains. Round the decay / Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare / The lone and level sands stretch far away.
America's Democrats and RINOs are the real handmaidens to this "disassembly."
With the exception of Africa, fertility rates are rapidly declining all over the world. Africa is declining too, but they are head & shoulders above everyone else.
I wonder why they did t bring in Latinos and phillipinos into Europe
The churches would have seen an increase in attendance and they’re western in culture
Suicide
On the other hand, there are plenty of people who are willing to fight for their cultures (good American cultures). Let the games begin.
As an aside, I live in the Deep South (after having spent years in NYC and other big cities). I have noted that many Hispanics that have moved into my area are adopting the traditional culture here. In fact, they seem to be thriving in it.
Diversity and open borders are the false religions that have brought this nation to its knees.
Do you think God approves of the USA rejecting God in the 60s and 70s and embracing false idols? Do you think God approves of people today mocking their Christian ancestors? God commanded us to honor our father and mother, and our culture today is based upon mocking them and bragging about how ‘enlightened’ we are today while reminding people how backward our ancestors were. And worshipping diversity in all of its bizarre forms.
What’s going to be interesting is seeing how the Third Worlders who risk their lives and pay huge fees to get to Europe, find that Europe is, well, Third World, at least for the near future, thanks to those ‘sanctions’ on Russia backfiring.
Islam (which means “to submit”) will be the world religion of the globalists. Why? It controls the population like no other.
The Mongols of Kublai Khan once had advanced into modern-day Europe, and brought their Golden Horde (and a large dose of the Islamic doctrine) with them, then the successors of the Golden Horde were repulsed at the very gates of Vienna. Parts of Islam remained, in the small Balkan countries, and have persisted to this day.
With this recent augmentation of a new flood of Islamic “true believers”, the final conquest is at hand.
Marie Antoinette once was famously quoted at saying, “Let them eat cake!”, when the poor of Paris could not afford bread. This was taken out of context. What she said, in a fit of compassion, was, “Louis, Louis, they have no bread? Then give them cake!” Oblivious to the greater danger lurking.
Much as Europeans today have been oblivious of the very real danger lurking.
I’ve been saying this for quite a while. The Caucasian race is doomed. One cannot defeat an existential threat with platitudes.
The core of the “West” was the Romance and Germanic language speakers of Europe. World Wars I&II destroyed the center of the West, and dominance passed to the peripheral barbarians of the US and Russia, one being a mass-culture democracy and the other an orthodox autocracy.
Interesting how those woman’s rights organizations ignore what islam means for a womans rights. More interesting that formerly testosterone filled men who have been neutered by their women don’t see the panacea that comes with islam. No more arguments with your woman and sex on demand....or else! It would be comical if it wasn’t so serious.
Exactly
(The foolish European Left thinks they will be able to control Islam and pervert it to their goals. The inverse is showing to be the reality. That reality is both demographic and cultural. Pity Europe, which will “care” itself into oblivion.)
That sums it up nicely.
Which is why eventually Turkey will rise and create a new Ottoman Empire, with the help of millions of European Muslims.
