Western Governments Have a Shelf Life

Many Western governments will eventually collapse because they do not serve the interests of their peoples. As a quick thought experiment, ask yourself what policy matters the governments of Canada, the United Kingdom, and the European Union consider most important.

Based on what I hear from the speeches of Western politicians and what I see from Western mainstream media publications, I would include these issues near the top of any list: (1) fighting “climate change”; (2) encouraging the mass immigration of foreign nationals; (3) replacing Western civilization with “multiculturalism”; (4) branding national self-interest as “fascism”; (5) demonizing “white supremacy” while giving preferential treatment to those with “diversity” of skin color; (6) undermining nuclear families consisting of one mother, one father, and their children; (7) treating abortion-on-demand as “healthcare” and a “sacred” right; (8) treating assisted suicide as “healthcare” and a moral good; (9) celebrating homosexuality; (10) rejecting biological sex; (11) embracing pseudoscientific “transgenderism” that promotes the sterilization and bodily mutilation of young children; (12) central banking that manipulates the value of national currencies; (13) offshoring industrial and manufacturing firms to third-world, often adversarial nations; (14) disarming citizens; (15) spying on citizens; (16) criminalizing citizens’ public and private speech; (17) censoring online information; (18) mandating the dissemination of government propaganda; (19) criminalizing citizens’ Christian beliefs; (20) refusing to prosecute or imprison thieves, robbers, rapists, and murderers; (21) nationalizing health care while mandating experimental “vaccinations”; (22) instituting military conscription; (23) instigating foreign wars without the public’s consent; (24) promulgating endless bureaucratic rules and regulations without voters’ consent; (25) taxing citizens and confiscating their property without their consent.

These twenty-five issues are by no means exhaustive, but they capture an accurate snapshot of Western governments’ priorities. In every instance, however, these policies either directly attack Western citizens or make their lives more difficult.

Right now we are in the “let’s see if elections can fix this” phase

The old "ballot box". That's the second avenue. We really don't want to go down the third one, but it seems increasingly likely, as for the most part, TPTB don't seem too interested in what the people want.

Feminism and marxism destroyed the American experiment. Every rotten policy can be laid at the feet of feminism and marxism. Western civilized feminism destroyed itself for the feelz. “Refugees welcome” “Free stuff for the single moms” “Feelz for the children” The ‘Karen’ meme. The female judges who refuse to punish criminals and stop every policy that keeps the country safe. Women are protecting illegal alien rapists and child predators. Women are the only ones who can legally kill their own children and get celebrated and rewarded for it. Women are the ones fighting to have boys kick the crap out of girls in sports and trannies perv on girls in locker rooms.

Orwell knew them. “It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies…”

“It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies…”"

Man, that really cuts, doesn't.? If Orwell could see it so clearly in 1949, you got to know that people today know what the heck is going on.! I think they lack the courage to speak-up because they afraid of being called a name. A racist, bigot, chauvinist pig. Or whatever else the leftist scumbags can think up.

Well, I say we better grow a pair really quick or we'll all be picking shit with the chickens....
