Observing its rate of collapse, I am likely to outlive Western Civilization, or what little remains of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">British Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn thinks he can get elected prime minister by promising to open the UK\u2019s border to all comers and to house them by seizing houses and office blocks. This, of course, means a Camp of the Saints moment for Great Britain. So many Brits are so far gone that Corbyn thinks this is a winning platform.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The current French president and German chancellor, as well as the European Union bosses, hold the same view. There is to be no Europe. Only Hungary, Italy, and Poland dissent and insist on remaining Hungarian, Polish, and Italian.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Alas, the Democratic Party in the US has the same view as Corbyn. One of the reasons they want to impeach Trump is that he is, as head of the executive branch, trying against the Democrats\u2019 opposition to enforce the immigration laws of the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The current stock of Democrats are just like the current stock of CEO and boards of directors. They are short-run focused. What they can get right now is all that is important. More money by sending American jobs abroad and hiring foreigners on work visas, by open borders that bring in cheaper labor and immigrant votes for Democrats. Hello \u201cperformance bonuses,\u201d Goodbye America.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">But when the short-run lengthens into the long-run, the third world immigrants have the country. The hatred that Identity Politics, the ideology of the Democratic Party and the American liberal\/progressive\/left, teaches against white people and the hatred that radical feminists teach against men, implies genocide and total social collapse. It is happening so rapidly that I believe I am going to watch it happen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">For example: My September 30 column, \u201cFeminism Has Ruined Women and Damaged Men,\u201d produced many letters from men and women affirming that \u201cyou are right on!\u201d Many said that feminism, once a movement to give women alternatives to marriage and motherhood, has become an ideological attack on men in which even consensual sexual intercourse between husband and wife was rape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">We now have \u201cwife rape\u201d laws which give wives power over their husbands, just as we have child abuse laws that give the child power over the parents and the government power over the family.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Feminism has essentially destroyed the relationship between men and women. Feminism has made women selfish. They do what they want to do regardless of its emotional and other effects on the man. If the man complains, the woman takes it as proof that he is sexist and unsupportive. Women think their vagina lets them do whatever they want to do. Women are told that their power is that men will do anything for sex. That\u2019s not true. Except for a few womanizers, what the British called \u201crakes,\u201d men want loving mutually-supportive relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In my day homosexuals were non-existent. We thought it was a myth, like unicorns. Today homosexuality has exploded. How do we know that the extraordinary increase in homosexuality is not men giving up on women?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Women are so untrustworthy today that corporations have to pay for insurance policies to protect their male executives from false sexual harassment charges from female employees. Corporate rules are in place that when a corporate group is on a business trip, the male and female employees must stay in separate hotels, and that no male employee can go to dinner with a female employee. The male employees have to attend seminars on how to protect themselves from sexual harassment charges. I have heard from CEOs and boards about how stupid they were to help women through the \u201cglass ceiling\u201d as the consequence is endless #Me\/Too problems that divert the energy of the organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Yes, of course, some men get turned on by women and behave inappropriately. In my day that was handled by a slap. Apparently, it is only today\u2019s feminist women who can\u2019t keep a man in check.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The House Democrats are conducting an \u201cimpeachment investigation\u201d despite the facts that they know they have no evidence of any offence and that there is no possibility that the Senate would convict. The House Democrats know that all they are doing is throwing mud hoping that some will stick on Trump and reduce his chance of reelection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">As for the the charge that a Ukrainian president was told to do a favor in exchange for a payment, the record is crystal clear that it was Biden who gave the Ukrainian president 6 hours to do as he is told or forfeit one billion dollars of US taxpayers\u2019 money. Biden bragged on it before the Council of Foreign Relations. The boast is captured on video. I posted it. It is all over the Internet. The Ukrainian prosecutor himself gave sworn testimony that he was fired on Biden\u2019s orders. The prosecutor was investigating a firm from which Biden\u2019s son was collecting huge sums in exchange for his father\u2019s protection of the corrupt firm. The evidence is clear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">But what do we hear from the media, especially the CNN and NPR whores? We hear that the charges against Biden are just politics, but that the charges against Trump, unsupported by the evidence, require Trump\u2019s impeachment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Here we have both the entirety of the Democratic Party and the entirety of the media denying the truth and relying on the endless repetition of lies to convince enough insouciant people to vote the Democrats in. Once in, the Democrats will adopt Corbyn\u2019s platform, and Americans will have a Camp of the Saints experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The US and Great Britain were once the \u201cfree nations,\u201d imbued with civil liberty, individual conscience, free speech, Christian moral values, and a rule of law. But no more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">A British tribunal just fired a British doctor for refusing to call a 6-foot tall bearded man \u201cmadam\u201d and condemned the doctor\u2019s \u201clack of belief in transgenderism\u201d as \u201cincompatible with human dignity and in conflict with the fundamental rights of others.\u201d <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/uk\/470190-transgender-bible-doctor-fired-uk\/\">https:\/\/www.rt.com\/uk\/470190-transgender-bible-doctor-fired-uk\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In other words, the doctor is not entitled to his own beliefs or opinions because other more highly regarded peoples\u2019 beliefs take precedence over his.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">This is increasingly the case throughout the Western World.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">If you have wondered about the total disappearance of investigative journalism in the UK and its near disappearance in the US, look no further than this document from the UK Ministry of Defense that lists investigative journalists as threats to UK national security. <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/russia-insider.com\/en\/society\/uk-ministry-war-says-investigative-journalists-among-top-threats-right-there-spies-and\">https:\/\/russia-insider.com\/en\/society\/uk-ministry-war-says-investigative-journalists-among-top-threats-right-there-spies-and<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Freedom of the press is now considered inconsistent with national security.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Thus the fates of Julian Assange and Manning are sealed.
