Europe Is Dying
American Thinker ^ | 7 Dec, 2025 | J.B. Shurk

And its totalitarian assaults on free speech represent a national security threat to the United States.

European civilization is dying. The Trump administration’s new National Security Strategy makes this clear. It has squandered its post-WWII economic and military assistance from the United States by investing in centralized, socialist bureaucracies and expansive welfare States. By chasing the “climate change” con as a means for European governments to justify total control over the drivers of economic growth, European nations have forsaken cheap energy exploration, private entrepreneurship, and technological innovation. By depending upon the United States to defend its territorial interests, European nations have destroyed their military capabilities.

In an effort to “juice” their economies with cheap labor and artificial demographic growth, European nations have opened their borders to tens of millions of foreign immigrants. The natural result is that foreign cultures have steadily eroded and replaced millennia-old European cultures without much resistance. The Trump administration believes Europe could be effectively “erased” within twenty years.

When living things die, they tend to lash out. Europe is no exception. Its political elites have decided to pretend that everything is okay and that the continent remains the life-force of the entire world. In order to buttress this delusion, European governments have embraced censorship and State-approved propaganda on a scale as obscene as anything that might occur in communist China. Controlling the “narrative” and silencing dissent are the last gasps of every civilization on its deathbed.

Every day some new horror story emerges from the United Kingdom in which an ordinary citizen is treated as a terrorist for merely expressing an opinion or defending a personal belief. A recent example involves thirty-four-year-old mother of four Elizabeth Kinney. It appears Kinney and a former friend were texting about a male acquaintance who had allegedly caused Kinney harm

The US should pull troops out of these countries and leave NATO. These governments are not allies. They are users and abusers.

Their influence here has been behind many of our problems.

I feel bad for the people who are being abused by their governments in the UK/EU. I imagine their elections are rigged just as Biden did here.

That alone should, but it probably won’t, wake some people up here in America.

I agree the Europe is dying, many same issues that the US faces, but it is curious how so many of the i don’t care about Europe, America first folks are quick with condemnation of Europe and Ukraine but are silent on the near total censorship of free speech, and unalienable rights going on in Russia.

If you don’t care, then why comment on one and not the other?

America ain’t far behind. Trump’s trying to save it, but . . .

As bad as their influence is, there is worse next door ready to move in if we create a vacuum, a country which has been the bane of liberty everywhere in the word to this very day, and which sows discord and terror everywhere.

Two Tier Free Gear Wan-Keir is a POTATUS analogue.

He does what he’s told.

Who’s really calling the shots in the UK...?

Europe is an example what happens when our elites are determined to hold onto power at all costs.

There is a solution. What amazes me is that the populace does’t rise up en masse and take it. Especially from the very locations that originated ‘heads on pikes’.

Not just dying, committing suicide. The WEF aligned leaders are hellbent on destroying it and ushering in a global fascistic order. Call it neofeudalism, a Player Piano world, whatever. But first, the middle class has to be utterly destroyed. They envision a population of a million or so genetically enhanced Arcadian ubermenschen lording over a half billion 70 IQ worker bees. And they foolishly imagine that they themselves will be members of the “in” club.

Russia isn’t in NATO and isn’t an supposed alliance.

Sorry, they have become what they say they hate the most. Becoming like your so called enemy and flooding your countries with the actual REAL enemies, is the choice these clowns have chosen while lying and lecturing the world with their phony “democracy” crap. The current batch of bozos are too stupid and drug addled to be in charge.

I see nothing left of liberty in in those places. Soon, they will all be kneeling to Islam.

I couldn't read the article on the Townhall website through the continuous pop-up ads.

Europe is dying because they allowed Muslims to “migrate according to them” and actually “invade according to what actually happens” and bring the war of Islam to them who ends up taking control of their country.

That's the price you have to pay if you want breakfast of avocado toast chased with a cup of civet coffee.
