One of the biggest problems in today’s politics (at least in the West) is the tendency by politicians to compartmentalise everything. Now the optimist could say this is clear evidence that they are not totalitarian. That is at least partially true: Hitler and Stalin did not accept the idea that there is a private sphere separated from the state, that whatever the individual does must be evaluated in light of what this would mean for the Volkskoerper. They took an organic view on all societal matters, meaning that there was no true individual choice, only options that the state would offer – or revoke.
There is a telling anecdote from the last months of the war, when Hitler proposed to switch the Wehrmacht onto a vegetarian diet plus supplements. He only relented from this idea after one of his general staff officers conducted these new dietary guidelines in a self-experiment, leading to such an obvious health deterioration that even the Fuehrer abandoned his original plan. A few years earlier he also proposed a smoking ban in the army, another proposal that took a lot of convincing from his generals to be discarded. For the totalitarian mind, everything is connected and therefore – at some point – everything will become an issue for the state. Or, as Benito Mussolini once said: “”Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State.”

When a corrupt government taxes its people so hard that the people can not afford to raise children things like this tend to happen.
Moreover, German (or French, Hungarian, etc.) soldiers are not being asked to defend their homeland. They are being asked to fight on the behest of the bureaucrats in Brussels for the sake of the European Union. Not exactly a great motivator. Who wants to sign up to kill and die for the sake of the Blob?
The islamic invaders want a major European war so that they can expand their colonies. The Europeans are going to fight the wrong war.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, my grandfather realized that there was no future in Sweden. If he stayed the best he could do was survive. He wanted more. He wanted to prosper, and he realized that was never going to happen in Sweden. So, he immigrated. He was sponsored in by a relative in US steel who agreed to cover any finance issues as that was the rule at the time.
When my grandmother, who had two small children went to the church to get the documents she would need in order to join her husband in Pittsburgh, the priest, upset that the residents were leaving for America refused. She picked up a candlestick and told him if he didn’t cough up the documents, she would beat him senseless. He did and she arrived in New York on a private ship paid for by the relative at US steel.
The point is, anyone paying attention in most of the world realizes that they are in for a long slow decline and immigrating to the US is the way to go. Even Canadians are coming here. All for the same reason. There’s opportunity here that doesn’t exist anywhere else.
“Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State.”
Sounds like the Democrat Party.
Good article. The author is much too optimistic, however.
Note that the author is misled by the common, “feminist”, notion that sex differences don’t matter.
It is not only retirees that can’t, won’t or don’t fight. Women can’t either. They, with a few exceptions, aren’t particularly good at it and they generally have other roles and responsibilities in our civilization.
They don’t make the same level of contributions to the support of retirees either. Feminists point to an “earnings gap”, but the earnings gap is just the face of a huge productivity gap. Men work in productivity jobs at a higher rate. Women work in service jobs, (including homemaking and motherhood) at a higher rate.
Also, its tough to persuade young native men (THE most demonized group of the entire population) to fight for countries that they know see them as nothing more than tax cattle it hopes to replace with the favored immigrant groups it lavishes with public funds. Tough to persuade young native men to serve when the elites have done all they can to obliterate the nation state.
What are they to fight for? For Brussels? For the prospect of having saddles fixed to their backs and being ridden into the ground to pay for older people’s pensions even while they cannot afford to live what used to be considered a middle class life....cannot buy a home...cannot afford a family, etc. No wonder they’re refusing to serve.
Birth rate. Guess who will win.
The Islamic people would be drafted to fight—like it or not. That or become slave workers in factories. Not to fright would be harsh. No Welfare in the war state.
I come from a broken home. My natural mother had four husbands, My natural father had two wives.
After all the court room BS I had to go through I swore
I’d never allow a child of mine to go through that crap!
I have a step daughter, I love very much, from some miracle
I’ve been married to the same woman almost 48 years now.
The real problem is the courts ALWAYS defer to the Mother,
granting Fathers few rights. That is why nobody wants to have kids.
Who wants to buy a slut a house, so she can sleep around, and keep you away from your kids?
That is exactly what I’ve seen in my many years.
Women have to be held more accountable.
I doubt it. They will be excepted, and expressing opposition to that exception will be illegal.
There are many historical precedents for population replacement.
1) The Beaker people and their DNA replaced the Neolithic people of Europe.
2) The Clovis people of North America were replaced by the Native Americans of today.
If it happened then, it can happen now.
Correct! The birth rate will win.
Please read my post #16.
None of these people are willing to fight for any of this stuff.
Who wants to fight for globalism and LGBTQI2s+? Why not stay home and defend our families individually? If everyone did this, not country would dare attack
A bull's eye of an observation. But, thanks to idiot Donald Tusk -- Mr. "More-Europe" from Poland -- we get a pass in playing this stupid game.
“500 million Europeans are asking 300 million Americans to defend them against 140 million Russians. [...] Europe today lacks the belief that we are truly a global force.”Tusk is partially correct. "Europe today lacks...."Polish PM Donald Tusk, speaking before his flight to London for the European Ukraine summit:
Let them. Lack, The sooner that Europe faces the consequences of its own "more Europe" green, inclusive politics, the sooner Europe will awaken.
Islam hopes they will slumber until it it too late,
As to the German on the right, an enlargement of the photo suggests that the soldier might be a female.
