The Dying Of The Light

[This should have appeared over a week ago, but I screwed up the posting date thingy, sorry.  It’s still relevant, and now updated.]

From the Diplomad, talking about the revolting French:

France is in real trouble. I mean REAL trouble.  That once great country, in fact, is dying.  It, along with most of the rest of Europe, has a worthless leadership class that, as we saw at the WWI commemorations, sees nationalism as a bad thing. That leadership argues that true patriotism means going along with the elite’s efforts to kill the sense, the very idea of nation;  it means allowing one’s culture, traditions, and history to be wiped away, and rewritten to justify the on-going social, economic and political destruction.  To object, for example, to the importation of hundreds-of-thousands of poor, illiterate and often violent migrants from some of the most failed countries on earth, many espousing an ideology of hatred for all that France and Western Civilization represent, makes you a vile racist and a deplorable, one who should not be heard, a “far right” pariah.  In other words, Citizen, fermé la bouche and let your betters decide for you.  Nothing to see, keep moving. Leadership should be left to the professionals;  do not attempt decision-making at home . . .

Before any of us start to crow at the Frogs’ expense, however, look carefully at the words “true patriotism means going along with the elite’s efforts to kill the sense, the very idea of nation;  it means allowing one’s culture, traditions, and history to be wiped away, and rewritten to justify the on-going social, economic and political destruction”  and try to deny that this is precisely what our own “leadership” class — political, academia and corporate — is doing to the United States[Hint:  you’ll fail]

Now go and buy some more ammo.

(Some of you may wonder why I haven’t suggested also buying a hi-viz jacket as used by the French protesters.  That’s because we Murkins don’t do hi-viz — we do camo.)

  1. I can’t buy more ammo. The floor under my ammo locker broke. 🙁

    Between the forthcoming unconstitutional bump stock ban/uncompensated confiscation and the Left’s continued efforts to foment violence, I’ve been buying a case every paycheck.

  2. Americans have their Yellow Jackets. They typically have a snake and say “Don’t Tread On Me”. Sometimes in conjunction with Molon Labe.

    Although should push come to shove, they will indeed be doffed in favor of camo. Can’t make yourself too much a target.

  3. This led me to muse that today’s pollies are analogous to the priestly class of (say) 700 years ago. You almost had to be born into that class to become a priest; all the other priests told the commoners how good you are, because all priests are good, wise, etc; and then you spout the dogma of whatever group you belong to whether it is based on fact or fiction (better for the priest if based on fiction).
    Come to think of it, is that what Lenin did? and Mao? and Kim Ill the 3rd.
    Where is Martin Luther when you need him?

  4. Selling indulgences even today, with proper thinking loving all that was unthinkable a few decades ago. Those who think they are out betters have no idea where the road leads they are trying to take us down.

  5. My parents, both born in 1921, lived through Hitler’s rise to power.

    My dad assured me that vast stocks of ammo and guns are absolutely immaterial to anything. What mattered then, and matters now, is the willingness to do violence fast, brutally and without concern for personal consequences.

    Lefty antifa street fighters have that.

    I’ll believe liberty and western civilization are safe when right wing young men go out and break lefty heads or shoot the bastards, or stand in front of a tank and say “run me over or fuck off”.

    Until then it’s just a bunch of blah, blah, blah over a keyboard. I can do that. I do that. I’m too old to have what it takes and probably never did, but I can sure see the folly of guys with lockers full of guns and ammo doing fuck all but type.
