Europe faces four self-inflicted crises—radical green mandates, collapsing families, unchecked immigration, and rising tribalism—that now threaten Western civilization itself.
Europe is plagued by a number of existential crises. Yet they are all self-inflicted—and by a dominant, therapeutic culture that embraced utopian but lethal bromides.
These suicidal wounds are now nearing the end-stage. Indeed, they are destroying the very civilization that was soon envisioned to be heaven on earth.
The global warming hysterics could not just entertain gradual transformations away from dependencies on traditional fuels and power generation.
Instead, elites have demanded catastrophic and near-instant “net zero” mandates. That radicalism entailed transitioning to unreliable and costly solar and wind energy. Fuel and electricity prices then soared.
The green socialist elite cared little that shutdowns of nuclear, coal, natural gas, and oil power generation would cripple industry, reduce living standards, and impoverish Europe.
Germany, the once economic powerhouse of Europe, became a shell of its former self. The same efforts accelerated under the Obama and Biden administrations in the U.S.
Both administrations sought to slash new fossil fuel production and use, without regard to the costs, dangers to the economy, or deleterious effects on the middle class and poor.
Second, for the last half-century, affluent Westerners embraced the idea that there were no normative lifestyles. Often, they claimed nuclear families with 2-3 children were parochial and passé.
Children supposedly inhibited the lifestyles and aspirations of women. Larger families, we were told, unfairly burdened upscale professionals with unneeded costs and offered biased and injurious models to gays, the transgendered, and single, childless men and women.
The result is that the fertility rate plummeted in the West, particularly in Europe (1.4) and the United States (1.6), to unsustainable levels.

Again, the elites discarded a century of research and common sense that immigration into modern Western societies is only beneficial if it is legal, measured, diverse, meritocratic, and met with robust efforts of the host to integrate, acculturate, and assimilate foreigners.
The arrogant West scoffed at all that.
There is some hope only because the four horsemen of our apocalypse were welcomed into the West by a minority of naïve, secular, and privileged Westerners. They believed as demigods that their wealth and freedom were irreversible birthrights, that utopia was near, and that they would be exempt from any consequences of their failure.

Western Civ. is breaking down because of policies instituted by the communist left in the 1960s. They didn’t suffer the consequences of their own open border policies / abortion / removing God from public spaces - it was the upcoming generations that now pay the huge price for their rebellion.
I highly suggest you watch “The Coming Convergence” search your cable movies.
What a wonderful beacon of truth and light is VDH! LORD, protect him!
In a relationship of any kind, for one to take substantially more than one gives will typically lead to its breakdown over time.
Then there is the matter of intolerable behavior.
Bkmk
All being done intentionally.
This invented chaos and lawlessness and crisis after crisis is being foisted upon the free Western world using Cloward Piven and Saul Alinsky tactics to generate confusion, uncertainty and chaos. They need a vacuum created to fill it with their evil control scheme.
Western nations are being pulled up by the roots by the Marxists and their World Economic Forum planners. Russia in 1917, China in 1949 and the West today.
The WEF were happy to take the lead for these efforts until Klaus started looking too much like the clownish Bond villain before the entire world along with holding giggling Bill Gates on his arm at the Prom. They dumped Trudeau for the same reason. Reprobate wickedness always becomes a ridiculous evil at its end.
So who is really behind all this?
Our enemy is the anti-Christ Spirit who rules over and empowers these people:
This is why there is no evil cabal headquarters found on a map. They are the CIA MI6 deep state Blob, the WEF, CFR, Bilderbergs, IMF, Chatam House, CCP controlled WHO, WTO, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, Rothschilds and others still hidden away in the shadows operating in secret.
They use the MSM to control the collective consent of the public while concealing their activities.
Going forward they will be using Tech giants and their AI algorithms that have “eyes like the eyes of a man” to suppress opposition 7x24 with real time data analytics.
“I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.” - Daniel 7:8
” . . .And the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.” - Revelation 13:2
They are actively waging war against the free West. They are all of one mind and are already signaling free speech will be taken away once they get full control again in the USA.
This is also why we are being surrounded by hostile Davos supporting foreign governments. Macron, Merz, Starmer and Carney, to wait us out until their next opportunity to bind the strongman USA.
After they installed the dementia carcass they didn’t think there would be any meaningful resistance, they were wrong.
This nexus of evil didn’t ask for a vote, they just did it while pretending to be responding to some ‘crisis’ and this will be the same way all of this will be implemented, first slowly and then all at once out of some “emergency” requirement they themselves will manufacture.
They will continue to dump western defensive weaponry and armaments into the black hole of Ukraine to weaken the West militarily and along with pushing fentanyl attacks on our military aged youth.
Overrun the West with military aged invaders being given more advantages and rights than citizens.
Shutdown free speech so anyone even mentioning their treasonous activities will be silenced, where coordination against their evil plans is hindered.
Ultimately they will crash the economic system to bring in their mandatory Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDCs) as they tried bankrupting the USA with flooding out USAID dollars to every evil imaginable.
Then utilize AI algorithms to create a total control CCP style surveillance state. Allowing for immediate rewards to supporters and a tyrannical lock-down to all who oppose them.
For Anyone else standing in their way they will use law fare tactics to make an example and to destroy them.
By overwhelming the system to failure they expect we will beg them to ‘build back better’ to save us. We’ll ask for a global Central Bank digital currency following another manufactured pandemic/economic crisis.
Next time I suspect they will require a mandatory DNA altering mRNA style ‘vaccine’ with Vaccine IDs tied directly to Social Credit Scores/ Corporate ESG scores, where this was used before to force big Business and markets to embrace their evil and censor those most empowered (and the most likely population to resist their efforts - Middle Class) and to be able to do so in a way where national and state Laws dont allow, for example: like firing anyone for not injecting unproven toxic SV40 contaminated medical interventions into their bodies etc., or even for questioning whats in it or the ‘science’ behind it.
This AI tyrannical Surveillance State once established will remain in place going forward forever. Satan will have ownership of the Earth and all who dwell here who receive his authority over them.
Those doing this are wicked Godless reprobates empowered by the anti-Christ spirit of lawlessness.
“And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” 1 Peter 5:8
“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. “ Ephesians 6:12
Satan is thrown out of Heaven in Revelation Chapter 12, then in Revelation Chapter 13, we immediately see a global buying and selling system looking exactly like what these evil people want for the world.
“Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” Revelation 12:12

Marking.
Good post. I regard Artificial Intelligence a collection of information run by algorithms without a soul nor any inclinations of morality.
It’s an electronic sociopath which will eventually decide we’re irrelevant.
Thank you, yeah AGI is coming by 2040 if not sooner according to those in the industry, and what that may one day look like deployed over a Quantum Computer system is a frightening thought.
Computer = 666
We are barrelling headlong toward the Marxists plans using AI algorithmically to monitor, control and manage all of us 24 hours a day, (which they believe) will overcome all the resource planning failings of their Communist attempts that came before it.
Ultimately its a tyrannical locked down surveillance state that Nazi Germany would’ve been envious of and looking very much like the anti-Christ system the Bible warned us would arrive one day just before Jesus returned to claim his inheritance over the Earth (Jerusalem).
Which is why these same evil players are also actively working to divide and steal Jerusalem away from a Jubilee recovery under the Law of Moses as shown in Leviticus Chapter 25.
Hitler had a fatal head wound in the fuhrer bunker, and yet this ‘Beast’ did live. It is the same beast evil spirit we see rising up today. It knows its time is growing short.
