The multimillionaire actor Seth Rogen chastised Neistat for his anger.

Rogen claimed that a car’s contents were minor things to lose.

He added that while living in West Hollywood he had his own car broken into 15 times, but thought little of it.

“How many obese people were in the slums of Cairo in the early 70’s? How many of them would refuse to be taken in by shelters and fed regularly if such options were open to them? Pretty big difference in my opinion.”

Are you implying that our cultural values created and is exacerbating the problem?

That we encourage, abet and even promote irresponsible behavior?

Our societal conditions are like nothing that has ever existed in history.

You have nailed it.

In no other society in history have the poor been fat.

My son has backpacked thru numerous 3rd World Countries over the years, but none in sub-Saharan Africa, and he said he never felt unsafe in any of them, but he feels unsafe in his own country. This isn’t the 3rd Worldization of America, this is the Africanization of America.

Exactly right.

I have recommended secession numerous times starting with Texas. We must do something to preserve what we love especially the Constitution and Amendments (all the rest of the volumes of laws can be restarted from scratch in my opinion and level of ignorance.) We are at the point it doesn’t make sense anymore to live in constant fear of someone blaming anyone for violating a law the accused hasn’t even heard of.)

I will help in any way I can if we can only get this started. I love Texas and would return in a heart beat.

Bodega-Texas would have to leave knowing the US is in GOP majority hands without it. Outlaw socialism. Eliminate government assistance to anyone not working 40 hrs/week. Illegals required to work 44 to stay-heh heh.

‘Offer’ to return to the US after it’s perfected. Could do it in 2 years-pie in the sky. If the rats get in the way just run the military bases out. Have the criminals apply for political asylum to get out of the new country.

Don’t want them to ‘return’.

Want them to take other states with them. Along with all taxes.

More recruits for such personal security are available every day that officers refuse to get VAXXED.

Victor Davis Hanson is a conservative intellectual and one of the first of that elite corps (Heritage Founation) to recognize the extraordinary leadership of President Donald J. Trump.

I just read a stellar piece of Hanson's from 2018 -- the foreword to Conrad Black's book, Donald J. Trump: A President Like No Other.

Hanson praises Conrad Black's classical writing style, and in that effort proves himself to also be a stylist and political analyst of the highest order. Great stuff.

VDH recalls the seventies. I recall the sixties and Egypt. Nasser was still alive, and beggars in Cairo and Alexandria did not stray far from the local mosque. Alex was clean, as was Old City Cairo. Nasser dies, the police stop kicking ass, Sadat plays politician, population growth, and it has been downhill ever since.

Third-Worldizing America is caused by people so stupid they vote by what they hear not what they see.

It’s called Third Worldization!:

It’s the utter breakdown of the law, and the ability of the rich within such a feudal society to find ways to avoid the violent chaos.

Neistat was right in identifying a pandemic of crime in Los Angeles as Third Worldization.

The predictable role of the smug, indifferent Third World rich, who master ignoring – and navigating around – the misery of others in their midst.

In a medieval-type society of two rather than three classes, the rich in walled estates rarely worry that much about thievery. Crime is written off as an intramural problem of the poor, especially when the middle class is in decline or nonexistent.

Violent crime is now soaring in America. But two things are different about America’s new criminality.

• One is the virtual impunity of it. Thieves now brazenly swarm a store, ransack, steal, and flee with the merchandise without worry of arrest.

• • Second, the Left often justifies crime as a sort of righteous payback against a supposedly exploitative system.

So, the architect of the so-called 1619 Project, Nikole Hannah-Jones, preened of the riotous destruction of property during the summer of 2020:
“Destroying property, which can be replaced, is not violence.”

Third Worldization reflects the asymmetry of law enforcement. Ideology and money, not the law, adjudicate who gets arrested and tried, and who does not.

So, Forget It, Jake! Relax! It’s Now, Not Your Town!

You voted for this B$!!! Even, If you didn’t, it doesn’t matter! Your vote has not counted nor been counted for decades, if ever.

It will light a fire under a lot of people’s asses. A good thing.

*ILLEGALS CANNOT have a job in the USA....*
I’m way ahead of you. What’s wrong with 3+ child families when there’s no welfare available? Think of how much work gets done. We’ll need the young workers. Industrial countries have a dearth of children. They’re being replaced by muslims. We can control that. The US won’t.

Yeah, I’m implying these things, shocking I know. At least the cultural values of these cities, not traditional values of course. Never before in the history of the world can the most destitute be so comfortable as here. I think the comparison between the places of true poverty mentioned by Hanson and what is going on in places like modern day L.A. don’t track as closely as he suggests. And I like Hanson a lot. Like a lot of folks, I don’t think he quite grasps how unique our conditions are.

Our poor are the most likely to be fat and our rich are the most likely to be thin. It’s like the plot of some sci-fi dystopia from the 40s.

This is not news and I posted about it twenty or so years ago.

~2000 the UN circulated a memo/news release that they realized they were unable to make all men equal. Their strategy had always been to raise third world countries to first world levels. Third world people would not put forth the necessary effort and the strategy was a failure.

The UN changed their strategy to reducing first world countries to third world status. That's their plan to make all men equal.

Nobody took them seriously until presidents klinton, jorge busho, O'DumDum cooperated.

POTUS Trump slowed the treason down but, as we've seen, he was just a temporary reprieve.

An independent Texas would fast-forward in the direction the rest of the US would be happy to follow. It’s called leading. A laboratory every state could see for themselves. Passports. No felons allowed. Even those with misdemeanor rap sheets. It would be awesome!

Hanson is articulate, has an audience and also has a sense of timing. You may have made the same points or at least held a similar position in the past, but Hanson’s article is important nonetheless.

The more folks beating the drum of this intentional degradation of Western society, the better.

White Property Doesn’t Matter. Whitey should willingly give it to the milling hordes of the “oppressed”. Whitey should open the trunk of his car and the front door of his home and watch carefully on his home security system.

If a Whitey breaks in, he should neutralize the Whitey. If it’s a member of the group that blames its self-inflicted pathologies on Whitey, all the while hating Whitey, he should turn off the security system until our new masters have had their fill. Wouldn’t want someone watching the video and mistaking the visitors for marauding monkeys on a raid.

The White population is being replaced by Third Worlders. Find videos on YouTube of Low Angeles in the 1950s and 60s. Notice how well the people are dressed. See what LA looks like today. That is population replacement.
